CA Plans Discussions
On Relevant Theology

by Judy Nuckols
CA Discussion Group Chairman

A hushed-up revolution has
swept our century. It concerns
the role of religion in an in-
creasingly secularized world,
a world of automation and threat
of nuclear holocaust.

For many, traditional reli-
gion has failed to solve these
problems and a search has en-
sued for an answer to this
secular challenge. Through
contemporary literature and
philosophy, an attempt has been
made to find a relevant theology.

Christian Association is spon-
soring a series of discussions
in an effort to bring these per-
tinent issues to our campus.

This Sunday afternoon, Miss
Pepperdene will speak on T.S.
Eliot, as an example of a poet
who attempted to deal with these
questions. In preparation for
the discussion, Miss Pepper-
dene has asked that those inter-
ested in participating read
"Burnt Norton", copies of
which will be available in the
mailroom.

This is to be followed by Dr.
T. M. Greene of the philosophy
department, whose topic will be
"Need We Re-think Our Re-
ligious Beliefs and Un-be-
liefs."

Dr. Green is aware of the
sharp division on our campus
between fundamentalism and
skepticism. He feels that the
essential problem is that of re-
ligious language and will speak
to this issue.

Dr. William Mallard of the
Emory School of Theology will
conclude the series on Sunday,
October 24. He will explore the

contemporary quest for the his-
torical Jesus.

All three discussions will be
held in the cabin from 3:30-
5:30 and refreshments will be
served.

Council Plans
Interfaith Tea
With Ministers

On Friday, September 24,
from 4-5:30 p.m., a Meet The
Ministers Tea will be held on the
Scott campus. The tea is under
the auspices of the Interfaith
Council, which is a committee
of Christian Association.
Denominations represented on
the Council are Methodist, Bap-
tist, Presbyterian, Lutheran,
Catholic, and Episcopal.

Ministers or representatives
from congregations in which
Agnes Scott students worship
will be present. The purpose of
the tea is to acquaint ministers
and students with each other.

Dress is casual, and every-
body on the campus, including
faculty, is invited to attend.

Social Council
Slates Movie

Katherine Hepburn and Cary
Grant star in 'The Philadelphia
Story", the first Social Coun-
cil-sponsored movie of this
year. It will be shown this
Saturday night at 7:30 p.m. in
room 207 Campbell.

As an introductory offer to
new students (and others), ad-
mission is free.

With the 8:30 bell this morn-
ing Agnes Scott officially be-
gan its seventy-seventh ses-
sion. Hie largest enrollment in
history, 748 old and new
students, includes 243 new stu-
dents. There are 235freshmen,
five transfers and three special
students.

The freshmen come from
schools in 22 states, the Dis-
trict of Columbia, France, and
Guatemala. The transfers come
from Bryn Mawr, Emory-at-
Oxford, UNC, Oglethorpe,

Baylor, and Vanderbilt.

Thirty per cent of the Class
of 1969 has been admitted on
the Early Decision Plan.
Eighteen freshmen are daugh-
ters of alumnae, and thirteen
are sisters of present students
or alumnae.

The freshmen include five
National Merit Scholars, one of
whom is among the 121 Pre-
sidential Scholars in the nation.

Returning students will no-

Retreat Keynote
We Begin To Act:

EDITOR'S NOTE: The following is the text of the opening ad-
dress at the Camp Calvin Fall Retreat, held last Tuesday through
Thursday, delivered by Student Government President Debbie
Rosen.)

350 years ago Shakespeare's Falstaff commented, "...It is the
malady of not marking, that I am troubled withal."

It is time that we too should be troubled. But in spite of Fal-
staff, "Markings" may still sound like a strange and esoteric
retreat theme and worse, it may sound like a highly inapplicable
emphasis for the year.

But, if, as VV. H. Auden suggests, "our markings provide our
true profile," then it is time that this word be made real and its
concrete implications a reality.

It is not necessary to pontificate on the definitions of the word
marking, for they fall neatly into three categories. Marking de-
notes (1) a distinguishing feature or sign by which something is
known. It denotes (2 ) a line or object serving to indicate position.
And it denotes (3) a target or goal at which one aims.

Concurring with these dictionary definitions, a profile, then,
would be composed of a montage of three ingredients: our unique

function, our present position, and our goals. In short, it raises
three questions: what we are, where we are, and where are we
going.

Traditionally, college students have concerned themselves with
the first two aspects of this profile. Individuals and organizations
focused their attention on the question of function: who am I, or
who are we? The focus then expanded to include position:
where am I, or where are we?

But our student generation is not the traditional one. It is one
that is characterized by action rather than self-analysis, by in-
volvement rather than reflection. Today's American student is
concerned with the third aspect of his profile: that of goals and
of making these goals realities. The question has become what
can I do and how can I do it?

This shift in emphasis, which makes our student generation a
new one, is not difficult to detect for it is characterized by a vi-
tality unparalled by past student generations. Students are rest-
less, demanding, and eager to participate. They are more con-
scious of the world, their influence on it, and their ability to
change it.

New Jersey students, for instance, were appalled by the low
percentage of students in colleges and universities in their state,
the third largest in population. They noted that New Jersey is
one of the few states which does not provide a broad-based tax for
higher education. Last year student leaders in New Jersey col-
leges and universities united and formed an organization called
C.U.E. They petitioned legislators, they initiated radio and tele-
vision series, they staged a symbolic march on the state capitol,
and they indirectly encouraged gubernatorial candidates to make
the problem of higher education in New Jersey a significant part
of their campaign platforms. This student movement has not yet
been completed; it will continue on New Jersey campuses through-
out the next academic year. But regardless of their success, New
Jersey students have shown us one thing: they care, and they care
enough to do something about it. They are a part of the vitality
of a new student generation.

Berkeley students of course held the spotlight last year in the
area of student protest movements. Told that they could no longer
engage in off-campus political activity on campus, they formed the
free speech movement, or the F.S.M. Though relatively small,
comprising only about 7% of Berkeley's 27,500 students, the FSM
was vocal and active. They demanded to be heard; they demanded
channels of communication to the Chancellor where, hitherto, there
were none not even for student leaders.. The FSM expanded into

been made on the campus over
the summer. The lights of
Gaines Cottage will shine a-
gain after two years of vacancy.
The former speech and drama
studios in Rebekah have been
partitioned into offices and
meeting rooms for student or-
ganizations. These offices were
formerly in Gaines Cottage.

Maclean Auditorium has re-
upholstered seats, new carpets,
and new curtains, and the li-
brary has new stacks forperiod-
cials.

The outstanding change is
the Dana Fine Arts Building,
under construction since early
in 1964. It is now open for
classes, and will be dedicated
in October. It houses the de-
partments of art, speach, and
drama. Special features in-
clude the Dalton galleries, an
outdoor sculpture court and
stage, and a 3 10-capacity open-
stage theater.

The New Year

Felicitations 1

Still. . .1 guess

This year too
Will prove only so-so.

These lines were written over a hundred years ago by Issa, a
Japanese poet, and an uncommonly human man. He understood
that most new year's resolutions are broken, and that often we can-
not go forward in our endeavors, for it takes all our strength
just to hold our present positions.

Scores of freshmen are excited about beginning a very big new
year here. Over a hundred members of student government,
sparked with the enthusiasm and purpose of the Camp Calvin re-
treat, envision a year of great change and progress for the campus.

We would do well to profit by Issa's rare gift of foresight, for
much of what we plan will remain undone, and only the strongest
of our resolutions will survive. We will get behind in our studies;
we will sleep too little; and our plans will fall apart. Even our
greatest efforts to make this year a great one will fall below our
intended goals.

But for lssa a realistic outlook was not necessarily a pessimistic
one. His life was a sad, but he never lost that spark of Will, the
vital propellant in any drive forward. This year, perhaps more
than ever before, we have that spark of Will to move ahead. It is
this spark which will make 1966 a good year, if not a great one.
No doubt in the spring we will look back on a year that held some
heartaches and failures, but our efforts for progress will show;
another year's experience cannot help but make our student gov-
ernment and the whole school stronger and better. Will and fore-
sight are our keys.

Issa's last poem was found under the pillow of his deathbed.

There are thanks to be given:
This snow on the bed quilt
It too is from Heaven.

Complin: New Direction
For An Old Service

Christian Association, under the direction of President Mary
Brown and Complin Chairman Lynn Smith, has taken the first steps
in what may be a significant change for Scott's ailing, poorly at-
tended hall services of worship.

What you knew last year as Hall Prayers no longer exists.
Evening services of worship on the individual halls, under the di-
rection of CA, are now called Complins. Complin is an ecclesias-
tical term. It denotes the seventh and the last of the canonical
hours of liturgical prayers. In centuries past it has been said or
sung after nightfall or immediately before retiring.

CA hopes that a change in name will remind the student body
that the service itself has new life and new direction. Complins
began September 17 and will be held each week. Attend on your
hall, and give Christian Association a change to show us that it
seeks to offer thoughts on what it means to be a Christian this
year, today, in our particular situation.

Point System Stresses
Student Participation

The annual Student Government Fall Retreat brought a major
change in Athletic Association's point system.

Formerly, the point system recognized students primarily on
the basis of skill and secondly on the basis of participation.

The new system reverses these two aspects and emphasizes
the student's participation in athletic activities.

There will be four awards given: an Agnes Scott pillow for the
accumulation of two hundred points, a lavalier for 450 points,
a blanket for 700 points, and a plaque for 1000 points.

A. A. Board members will be glad to explain the point system
procedure to new students. Interested upperclassmen should see
Joan Kiker, Ann McClain, or Patty Williams to convert past points
to the new system.

Points will be given for the following activities:

I. MAJOR TEAM SPORTS (hockey, basketball, volleyball)
Practice outside class 5/hour
Participation on class team 5/game
Varsity member 10
Sub- Varsity member 5

II. INDIVIDUAL ACTIVITIES (archery, tennis, bicycling, etc.)
Outside class 5/hour
Participation in tournament 10
Winner or runner-up of tournament 5

A. Tennis or Badmitton membership

B. Dance Group or Dolphin Club membership

members are retained from
last year and previous years.
Dietitians Mrs. Robinson and
Mrs. Lanier are still with the
staff.

Mr. Evans replaces Mrs.
Hatfield, chief dietitian for Scott
who retired at the end of last
year.

Naith Head is head of the kit-
chen staff, and Grover Benja-
min is head chef, a position he
has held for 28 years.

Mr. Evans reports that a
major difference in our food
service this year that students
will notice is that there is a
wider range of choice than there
has been in the past. He ex-
plains that a wider choice elim-
inates a lot of wasted food.

He urges students not to get
second servings until they are
sure that they want them; but
anyone can have seconds any
time they want.

Students are free to come
to him at any time, he adds, if
they have a favorite dish which
they would like to have served
more often, or if they have any
suggestions of any kind for him
and for his staff. He says "just
tell us if you dislike some-
thing."

The Lower Dining Hall snack
bar will be open Monday through
Friday from 9:30-11:15 a.m.
and from 7-10 p.m. Lun^h and
Dinner will be served in the
Lower Dining Hall.

Mr. Evans says that he hopes
to serve hot dogs later on in the
snack bar. There is a grill
equipped to handle all kinds of
snack sandwiches. He adds that
the Lower Dining Hall can also
be open on special request at
hours other than the regular
ones.

He says that Campus Chefs
Inc. "appreciates being se-
lected to serve Agnes Scott
College."

THE FIRST WEEK is especially

busy for Mr. Evans, as he pre-
pares the dining hall for the
iq 65-1966 session under the
auspices of the Campus Chefs.

Oglethorpe Gets
Grant From HEW

Oglethorpe College has re-
ceived a grant of $30,132 from
the Department of Health, Edu-
cation, and Welfare for the
1965-66 college year.

The grant is allowed by the
government in order to stimu-
late and promote the part-time
employment of students from
low-income families who are
in the need of income from
such employment to pursue
courses of study at the institu-
tion.

A student can work fifteen
hours a week and earn money to
continue his education.

At Oglethorpe there are sev-
eral areas of possible employ-
ment, including food service,
construction, and secretarial
work.

Centorbe Spends Summer
In Fashion Marketing

Cathe Centorbe, a senior, has
just returned to Agnes Scott af-
ter serving as a guest editor
in New York on Mademoiselle
magazine. Her guest editor-
ship was in the field of fashion
marketing and merchandising.

Cathe left May 28 for two
weeks in New York, where she

"MOCKINGS"

FROM
RAMON A

Dear Mom,

Well, my Junior Sponsor was
right. I certainly avoided the
crowd by waiting for her in the
Prayer Room. Unfortunately I
also avoided her. After stand-
ing for three hours, I went to
the Dean's Office and learned
that she had been waiting for
me at the Piedmont Hotel.

We got together then, and af-
ter standing in line a grand to-
tal of 17 hours, I am REGIS-
TERED. In other words, I
have written my name and ad-
dress three times.

Then, on to the course com-
mittee. They must have had me
confused with someone else.
They changed my art, speech,
and music to math,, physics,
and chemistry. You were right,
Mom; I can't get away with
seven hours.

I'm really pleased with my
schedule. It's unusual. It con-
flicts only with meals.

My service scholarship con-
ference with Mrs. Curry prov-
ed fruitful. She thought I am
rather untalented, so she as-
signed me to sweeping the Buttr-
rick elevator.

After registration, I ran into
my roommate. Literally. She
was carrying her art supplies
up and tripped over my skate
board as I came into the room.
Cassandra is from Boston.
She's never heard of good old
Bug Hill, N.C. She dashed out
for a date with a boy she met
on a picket line and I haven't
seen much of her since.

The highlight of the weekend
was the dance and picnic. It
was mostly standing in line,
too, but I did meet one neat guy
and social life looks pretty
good.

I'm glad you forced me to
read those books, Mom, be-
cause when I met Dr. Alston, he
asked me about them. I under-
stood the panel discussion, too.

Classes started today and I'm
already behind with 20 hours of
work. I must go.

Give my love to Dad and
Bobby. Take care of Butch.

Love,
Ramona

worked in the magazine offices,
made public appearances and
store trips, and attended parties
given in the G.E.'s honor by
New York manufacturers.

In the middle of June the guest
editors left for Madrid, Spain
where they photographed shots
for the September issue and
did promotion pictures for the
magazine.

They also went to Toledo on
Corpus Christi Day for a relig-
ious festival and bull fights.

Each guest editor was as-
signed to an editor of the maga-
zine and given a project for the
August college issue. Cathe
was involved in the August
showing of New York manufac-
turers.

She also helped backstage in
shows and modeled at photo-
graphy sessions. The fashion
or merchandising editor sits in
on shows to accessorize the
costumes. She has a whole
closet of shoes, bags, hose, etc.,
from which to select acces-
sories.

At the first of June the Made-
moiselle scene was chosen to be
"Campus 1965". The clothes
to be featured in the college is-
sue were presented in the Hotel
Astor, packed with hundreds of
New York buyers. After every
piece o f the August college mer-
chandise had been shown, the
clothes were taken back to the
showroom. Then the buyers
made appointments to see the
merchandise.

Retreater Urges
Communication
Of Calvin Spirit

Editor,

This year's Leadership Re-
treat held at Camp Calvin has
started the new academic year
with enthusiasm on the parts
of at least the one hundred girls
who attended.

If this enthusiasm could be
communicated to the student
body then this year promises to
be the best that Agnes Scott Col-
lege has ever had.

But the board presidents and
members can do nothing, no
matter how enthusiastic they
may be, without the support and
enthusiasm of every student on
the campus. This holds true not
only for board members but for
class officers, editors of pub-
lications, and other officers on
the campus.

This is a student body, not
just a body of students. As a
body it cannot survive success-
fully without each member doing
her part. Just as the Bible
points out that the church is a
member and that some mem-
bers do more than others, it al-
so points out that the head can-
not do its task of coordinating

unless the members are able to
do their part.

Every member of the Agnes
Scott campus is able to do her
part, however small it may be,
to make this a wonderful year.
So let's do it, how about itl

Susan Aikman

A new feature of Mademoi-
selle this year was the fashion
notebook, compiled primarily
to assist incoming freshmen on
clothes choices suited to their
particular campus.

In each city there are tie-in
stores which agree to buy the
articles shown in the magazine
and the notebook. They also
agree to present a fashion show
in August with Mademoiselle
clothes.

The store buyers decide what
to stock and then order the
clothes through the manufactur-
er. Then each department of
the magazine calls the manu-
facturer and requests one New
York store and one tie-in store
to be credited with the mer-
chandise.

In Cathe's department the
magazine must be represented
in showings, and the various
stores ask the fashion and mar-
keting editors to attend these
shows. For the store trips in
August, questionnaires are sent
to the tie-in stores to see if
they would like for a Mademoi-
selle editor to present a show.

Five of the girls in Cathe's
department made store trips.
Cathe worked two and a half
weeks at Plymouth on Fifth
Avenue at 52nd Street.

Mademoiselle sends the script
oF its own August fashion show
along with ideas for scenes to
the store. The stores then ar-
range for interviews with radio
and television for the store as
well as the magazine.

The publicity department of
the magazine selects certain
radio and television stations and
sends biographies and pictures
of the Mademoiselle editor and
information on the store where
she can be reached.

The marketing and merchan-
dising editor go on the market,
just as the fashion editors do
and try to spot trends, as man-
ufacturers usually get togeth-
er for a certain look for the
season. If Mademoiselle sees
an idea it gets a manufacturer
to cut a pattern to fit the idea.

Once in Greece a fashion edi-
tor spotted an old man wearing
a ribbed sweater his wife had
knit for him. The editor bought
it for two or three dollars, and
in the States a leading knit-
wear company transformed it
into the now-popular "po boy"
sweater.

On Cathe's store trip she
modeled clothes and answered
questions about accessories and
clothes for the working girl as
well as the college student. She
helped to promote hip hangers,
bell bottoms, and argyles.

The guest editors attended
parties almost every night at
which they met many personali-
ties, including Richard Cham-
berlain. They also interviewed
Barbara Streisand and John
Lindsey, who is running for
mayor of New York City.

After her guest editorship
ended, Cathe stayed at the Bar-
bizon Hotel and worked in New
York.

Your present age is the dan-
gerous age.

Black Cat Skit
Moves To Gaines

by Mary Barnett
Black Cat Chairman

Don't let the secret out, but
Black Cat this year is going to
be better than ever before.

No hints as to the theme,
naturally, but the hardworking
script committee has a real
treat in store for the entire
college campus.

Soon the freshmen will be
choosing their mascot, and the
sound of hockey sticks will be
heard as the classes battle it
out in the big Black Cat rivalry
games.

After the hockey games the
college community is invited to
a picnic supper followed by the
highlight of the 1965 orienta-
tion program the Black Cat
skit presentation.

The climax of many fun-fill-
ed weeks of orientation will take
place October 22.

The skit will be presented in
Gaines this year instead of in the
gym. The skit shares honors
only with the excitement stirred
up by the annual song contest.

A word to the wise...the jun-
iors are out to win again this
year, so freshmen, sophs, and
seniors beware 1

1965 Graduate
Named Volunteer
In Peace Corps

Kathy Johnson, class of 1965
has been named a Peace Corps
volunteer. After 12 weeks of
training at the University of
Utah, she has left for Ethiopia.

Her group of volunteers will
teach seventh and eighth gradei
and in the Haile Selassie I School
of Business. They will replace
Peace Corps teachers who have
completed two years of service.

Education is the main job of
the Corps in Ethiopia. With the
arrival of this group, more than
550 volunteers will be teaching
there, most of them at the sec-
ondary level. About 60 others
are at work in health, law, and
highway construction.

During training, English ma-
jor Kathy learned Amharic, the
language of Ethiopia, and stud-
ied teaching methods. The
group practiced their teaching
in schools near the training
site.

Scott Graduate
Participating In
MA Program

Gayle Stubbs, a 1965 psycho-
logy graduate is participating
in the Internship Master of
Arts in Teaching Program at
Emory University.

One of 32 students involved
in the program in the Atlanta,
Gayle will take advanced cour-
ses in her major field, study
teaching methods and educa-
tional theory, and spend one
semester in a full-time teach-
ing internship.

The program is offered at
only a few colleges in the coun-
try and is aimed at students
who have a bachelor's degree
in arts or sciences and who want
to teach but lack teaching train-
ing.

The year of graduate study
provides the training in educa-
tion necessary as well as a
master's degree.

Panel Ponders
Rush Pitfalls
At Chapel Hour

On Thursday, September 23,
a Rush Chapel will be held in
Gaines. A panel will answer
questions that Freshmen ask
about rush, in order to help
them avoid pitfalls of rush.

All five of the boy panel
members are from Tech, since
Emory rush has already start-
ed. They are Jim Freeman, a
Beta, who is President of IFC;
Lee Hogan, an SAE, who is
Vice-president of IFC; the Rush
Chairman of IFC, Bill Viehman
(ATO); KA president Hodge Gol-
son; and Bob Frank, Sigma Chi
president.

Penny Penland, chapel chair-
man, and Betty Rankin, social
council president, will also be
on the panel.

The program is primarily for
Freshmen, but upperclassmen
are invited to come and remi-
nisce.

nators' Conference. Also that
week the United States Student
Press Association met at the
University.

The rest of the time there
was spent at the National Stu-
dent Congress. Debbie and

Linda Lou were in regular at-
tendance at the meetings al-
though they had to walk two
miles from their dorm to the au-
ditorium.

At the Congress were repre-
sentatives from approximately
200 of the member schools of
N.S.A. There were also obser-
vers from non - member
schools . Agnes Scott was the
only school from the Great
Southeast (Georgia and Flori-
da) to be represented. The
University of North Carolina
was the other major Southern
school represented.

At the Congress keynote
speaker Vice-President Hubert

NAN JOHNSON'S father typifies the many weary, longsultering,
suitcase-toting fathers of Scotties.

Mother Of Five Enters,
Seeks Teaching Certificate

Freshmen, are you getting
used to the rough and tumble
of col kge Life? How would you
like to lead three lives wife,
Agnes Scott new student, and the
mother of five children?

This though has not stag-
gered one special student, Aria
Redd, who doubles off campus
as Mrs. Bryan Redd. Mrs.
Redd is the wife of a thera-
peutic radiologist who is in
private practice in the Peach-
three Medical Building, and
mother of children ranging from
a six-year -old to twins who
are entering the eighth grade
this year.

This double role is not new
to Aria, who is entering with
38 hours from Oglethorpe where
she was a part-time student.
Although her children have
learned to do a lot of things

for themselves, she anticipates
lack of time as a problem.

Aria's first impression of
college have been favorable.

Her contact with students has
been "warm and friendly," and
the administration has been es-
pecially helpful. No waiting
in lines far this special stu-
dent, since she has been hand-

led separately.

An English major, Aria plans
to get her teaching certificate;
she would like to combine high
school guidance counseling with
teaching English.

Her own plans to return to
college began long ago when she
enjoyed teaching her own chil-
dren so much. Possible gra-
duate work is in her future
plans also.

Formerly a nursing student
in Phoenix, Arizona, Aria does
not see her educational career
as disjointed. Nursing, being
a mother, and teaching are re-
lated in her opinion, for each
is "a giving sort of thing,
a close relationship, requir-
ing personal contact."

Although she's optimistic,
Aria's thoughts about entering
ASC are far from rosy, unrea-
listic idealism. She expects
the academic load to be de-
manding and forsees a lot of
hard work.

but she's been encouraged
that most Scotties seem serious
about their work. "I'm very
impressed with the girls, "she
comments," they seem con-
cerned about life, about
people."

Humphrey spoke on the Right of
Dissent. His major point was
that students and citizens not
only have the right of dissent,
they also have the responsibili-
ty of offering constructive so-
lutions.

Other speakers at the Con-
gress were the governor of
Wisconsin and the Dean of Stu-
dents of the University.

The Congress consisted of
seminars and study and dis-
cussion groups as well as leg-
islative sessions. Debbie was
a sub-committee leader on the
subject of Student Leaders and
Social Reform. Linda Lou was
in the group on International
Affairs - Asia.

Debbie and Linda Lou made it
a point to attend different meet-
ings at all times so as to be
able to make a better report to
the student body on the overall
conference.

Agnes Scott had one vote in
the legislative sessions, which
considered some of the major
issues confronting America
today. Some of these issues
were the Berkeley Resolution,
the Viet Nam Resolution, the
Apartheid Policies of South Af-
rica, and the Communist China
Situtation.

The Berkeley Resolution was
passed with just a small minor-
ity against it. Agnes Scott's
vote went for this resolution
dealing with the Student Free
Speech Movement. The Con-
gress approved the movement
in principle although refusing to
endorse some of the means.

Linda Lou thinks that the
Congress arrived at a respon-
sible solution of negotiated

peace in Viet Nam, allowing the
people to determine their own
government without interfer-
ence from external forces. Ag-
nes Scott voted with the Con-
gress on this resolution, also.

The Congress voted condem-
ning the Apartheid policies of
South Africa. Apartheid means
"apartness" and is the poli-
cy of "strict racial segregation
and discrimination against the
native Negroes and other color-
ed peoples as practiced in the
Union of South Africa." Agnes
Scott's vote against went with
the Congress on this action.

Scott also voted for a re-
evaluation of the United States'
consideration of Communist
China.

Linda Lou says that through
the pooling of specific and rele-
vant ideas the campus program
here at Agnes Scott can be bene-
fited. There are plans to under-
go major programs on this cam-
pus and for visits from NSA of-
ficers, regional directors, and
other NSA members.

ASC FRESHMAN DERA JONES was so excited about the new

Greenbriar Shopping Center that she wanted to help. Dera
has done modeling for Penny's and was a member of their
College Board.

WELCOME FROM
JUDICIAL COUNCIL

by Susan Ledford
Chairman, Judicial Council

Judicial Council is happy to
welcome all freshmen and new
students and would like to give
substance to this welcome by
extending an invitation to both
new and returning students to
visit our meetings each Monday
afternoon at 5 p.m. in room 106
Buttrick.

Judicial Council, which is
comprised of representatives
from all classes plus the Day
Students, now numbers twenty-
three. This number will be in-
creased by two when the fresh-
man class holds its elections in
the fall.

Under the principles of the
Honor System, we handle all
minor and major infractions of
the policies of the college.
Viewing each infraction as an
individual and unique case, we
function on a completely stu-
dent-to-student basis.

Judicial Council plans to
channel its efforts into three
major activities for Fall Quar-
ter which we hope will interest,
involve, and challenge the stu-
dent body as a whole.

The first of these is a ser-
ies of handbook classes direct-
ed toward the freshman class
in order to constructively aug-
ment knowledge of the Honor
System and thus, of the school
policies and regulations.

Another of our activities will
be a mock judicial meeting plan-
ned by Poppy Wilson and Lynne
Wilkins N and staged for the stu-
dent body at 10:30 a.m. Thurs-
day, October 7. We plan to give
a composite picture of judicial
case procedure by means of
humorous example.

The last of our Fall Quarter
activities will be Honor Em-
phasis Week, headed by Judy
Ahrano. During the week of
November 8-12, we plan to have
one or two chapel programs, in-
formal student discussions, and
an emphasis on the why, what,
and how of dual responsibility.

We look forward to this quar-
ter's activities, hoping all will
join us in participating in them.

Retreat Spurs

Council To
New Vitality

by Marilyn Abendroth
Student Treasurer

I wish that every person on
campus could have experienced
the excitement of leadership re-
treat. The plans and attitudes
of each board are amazingly
enthusiastic.

Because of this vitality at re-
treat, I predict a year of
thoughtful action and of many
realized goals.

Yet is to Rep Council's new
role that I wish to speak. I
feel as though the function and
place on this campus of Rep-
resentative Council was mark-
ed by its actions and plans at
retreat. The theme of retreat
most uniquely and appropriate-
ly pointed this our,.

From the text of Debbie Ros-
en's speech came the theme of
a focus on our "markings",
markings denoting in this sense
the unique function, present po-
sition, and goals of student gov-
ernment.

Rep Council's unique function
can be understood by a look at
its history. From formation
it was a loose group of diverse
people held together by only a
poorly attended bimonthly
meeting.

But because of an increasing
concern for the college, Rep
Council is beginning to come
into its own as a creative, ef-
fective, functioning, legisla-
tive-coordinative council. This
legislative aspect is an espec-
ially vital part of our present
position.

The last aspect of the "Mark-
ings" theme is most important
to us now. We are now more
clearly than ever looking to the
goals of making Scott the most
profitably educational commun-
ity, and to use Dr. Greene's
words, of increasing the har-
mony between Scott's "older
and younger scholars" (facul-
ty and students).

Rep Council and the boards
have been challenged to action,
to a consideration of their
markings, and to an evolve-
ment in the Scott college com-
munity.

I feel we are all ready to ac-
cept this challenge, I hope the
student body will be open to
our enthusiasm in this, the be-
ginning of a great year.

WELCOME FROM
STUDENT GOVERNMENT

by Debbie Rosen
President, Student Government

On behalf of Student Govern-
ment Association and Repre-
sentative Council, I would like
to welcome you to our enlarged
campus and to what I hope will
be a most exciting and stimu-
lating year at Agnes Scott.

This year student government
is steering away from the analy-
tical approach. Cognizant of
students' desire to participate
and the wide range o f student in-
terests, we are attempting to
provide a broad spectrum of
activities.

These structured programs
are the publicized aspect of
student government and it is
therefore not necessary to pon-
tificate on them here.

But there is still another
more subtle function of student
government. This relatively
dormant aspect of student gov-
ernment has finally raised its
head and recognized its rela-
tion to the academic commun-
ity.

This means, in part, our re-
sponsibility to create an at-
mosphere on campus that will
foster spontaneity and creativi-
ty, that will give Agnes Scott the

kind of vitality m and out of the
classroom that will make all
aspects of our life here a
uniquely rewarding and educa-
tional experience.

Reo Council, as the hub of
student government, has dis-
covered that it must be on its
toes as much as the dance group
in order to involve itself 'in
campus life and keep abreast
of student interests and con-
cerns.

It is at this point that your
cooperation becomes impera-
tive if we are to maintain an
effective representative, self-
governing organization.

I would urge each of you, as
members of student govern-
ment, to come to our meetings
Tuesday at 5 p.m. and partici-
pate in the discussion and de-
bate. Agnes Scott should have
an informed and participating
student community and this is
one way in which this goal can
be effectively realized.

I would urge you also to a
creativity and a spontaneity that
will make our life on this cam-
pus an ever enriching and fe-
warding experience.

ed at the activities in the Hub during the Open House on Thurs-
day. He is watching noisy seniors at a Hub sing.

Campus Organizations Welcome
Agnes Scott's 1965-66 Students

MORTAR ROARD

by Jan Gaskell
President, Mortar Board

returning students to provide
opportunities for the manifes-
tation of the talents possessed
by the newcomes,

Finally, and actually of first
importance, we feel that it is
fitting to urge everyone, old
and new, freshmen and upper-
classmen, students and faculty,
to recognize the place of acade-
mics and to give primary at-
tention to them.

The essential life of the col-
lege is the life of the mind, a
life which is not limited to the
classroom, but can be found in
lectures, in planned and un-
planned discussions, and in
numerous daily relationships.

It is with anticipation that the
1965-66 chapter of Mortar
Board welcomes students to the
college, especially the class of
1969. The prospect of some two
hundred and thirty new faces and
the thought of all the new ideas
and interests which will be felt
on the campus in the coming
months is both exciting and
challenging.

The nine members of Agnes
Scott's chapter of Mortar
Board, a national society of sen-
iors selected on the qualifica-
tions of scholarship, leader-
ship, and service, have several
hopes for this year. We hope

first that each student realizes
that she is a vital part of Agnes
Scott College and that each will
enter enthusiastically into any
6f the various campus activities
in which she has a particular
interest.

One challenge for every new
year is that of involving the new
students who have a great deal
to offer. We would therefore
urge new students to seek with-
out hesitation ways of entering
into the life of the college; at
the same time, we would urge

[ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION

by Joan Kiker
President, Athletic Association

The intellectual atmospnere
of Agnes Scott is one of Mortar
Board's growing concerns. It
is up to each individual to stim-
ulate herself in order that the
atmosphere of the college be in-
vigorating and challenging.

Mortar Board welcomes the
student body with the hope that
this year can be a n exceptional
one, one of opportunity for par-
ticipation of all and one of in-
tellectual fervour and vitality.

I would like to extend an of-
ficial welcome to you, the Agnes
Scott student body, on behalf
of Athletic Association. You
have been constantly in our
thoughts for the last five months
in preparation for a new and
vital year at Agnes Scott.

I hope that you will not just
consider A. A. as **the place
where I can buy my sweatshirt
and blazer" (though this helps I),
but rather, consider A. A. as a
chance to enter into an activity
because you love doing it; i.e.,
for funl

All projects that A. A. spon-
sors are for your enjoyment. As
you take time out from the in-

tellectual "meeting of the
minds" remember that there is
a time for play.

Hockey, tennis, archery, golf,
and a class swimming meet are

on the calendar for Fall Quar-
ter, sports-wise. But we urge
you to ride bicycles (found in
the basement of Campbell), take
hikes (perhaps through the new
Dana Fine Arts building), come
to hub parties, bonfires, etc.

In short, relax I

This year Athletic Associa-
tion will use profits from sweat-
shirts and blazers to buy the
first pool table for the hub.

Agnes Scott blazers are on
sale today from 11 a.m. to 4
p.m. in the gym. They are
available in white, light grey,
charcoal, and navy.

Also this year, A.S.C. sweat-
shirts will come in an assort-
ment of colors: white, navy,
yellow, powder blue, and bur-
gandy both long and short
sleeved.

Other A. A. activities to look
for include ice skating and bowl-
ing parties, first aid demon-
strations, a self-defense course
(which we hope you will not
need, but you never can tell? 1),
and a Red Cross blood drive in
the Spring.

Athletic Association encour-
ages you to become aware of
our activities, then to become
involved with us in them so that
a new vitality and spontaneity
may be made real through A. A.
on the Agnes Scott campus.

CHRISTIAN
ASSOCIATION

by Mary Brown
President,
Christian Association

The purpose of the Agnes
Scott Christian Association is
to make the essence of the
Christian faith relevant to stu-
dents in the twentieth century.
All students are invited to par-
ticipate in its program of wor-
ship, discussion and service.

A new series of discussion
groups, "The Religious Reve-
lution," has been planned for
fall quarter. These provide
an opportunity for serious dis-
cussion of the problems of re-
ligion in the modern world.

Another innovation is found
in Complin, a Latin word mean-
ing completion and the last hour
of the day, which is the new
title for hall prayers.

The Christian Association
Representatives on each hall,
in addition to being responsible
for Complin, will be members
of House Council. In this new
capacity they will be expected
to work with the council in mak-
ing the dorm a more harmon-
ious and happy living area.

One of the most challenging
fields tor unristian Associa-
tion is in the field of service
and relations. Our projects
include tutoring in culturally
deprived areas of Atlanta,
working with children in hos-
pitals and homes, visiting with
the aged, and specific work in
the field of race relations.

Early in October all students
will be given the opportunity to
become involved in this com-
munity.

Tuesday chapels, sponsored
by C. A., bring a variety of
speakers from the Atlanta com-
munity to the Scott campus.
New plans for Vespers include
selected faculty members lead-
ing them for a week at a time.
On Oct. 3 Dr. Alston will lead
the campus in observance of
World-Wide Communion Day.

Concern with vocations,
world-awareness, and inter-
collegiate meetings also com-
prise C.A.'s program.

The Cabinet, which leads the
Association, meets every Mon-
day at 7 p.m. on the first floor
of Rebekah. Visitors and their
suggestions are welcome.

On behalf of Christian As-
sociation I would like to extend
my welcome to the class of 1969.
We anticipate an exciting year,
and are glad you are already
a part of it.

ORIENTATION
COMMITTEE

by Ginny Finney
Orientation Chairman

Since nearly all the activities
of orientation are now over, it
may seem a little unnecessary
to "welcome" the class of '69.

But I think that you will find
that all the events we have
planned as an introduction to
Agnes Scott are not your real
welcome into the life of the col-
lege. In spite of all that we try
to do to make it as natural as
possible, the orientation pro-
gram must give a slightly arti-
ficial-and necessarily idealiz-
ed-picture of college life.

Your real welcome will take
place when you have fallen into
the routine of living, and not just
visiting, here.

If your impression of life at
Agnes Scott is that every mom-
ent will be blissful, then you are
no more a part of the college
than the person whose every
moment here is miserable.

This week we have tried to
give you an overall view of what
this college can give to you.
Yet it is only when you realize
what the college will demand of
you and when you decide what
you will give to it that you will
have made yourself truly wel-
come.

Looking forward to what you
as a class and as individuals
will mean to Agnes Scott, we
can say how glad we are that
you have come.

ed about and beginning to put
into effect plans for the rest
of the year. Our plans range
from Saturday night films to
bridge parties, from an interior
decoration demonstration to a

bingo game, from a fire-side
chat on "The American Wo-
man" to a table setting contest,
from a male discussion of the
"Ideal College Girl" toa "sil-
ly movie" party in the Hub.

We are also looking forward
to two big dance week ends this
year and hoping to encourage
more and better mixers on cam-
pus by working with the var-
ious classes.

Our board is composed of
twelve members: four officers,
two representatives from each
class, and a reporter and a pub-
licity manager. These twelve
are always open to your advice
and criticism concerning social
activities^at our school.

It is for you, all members of
the Social Council of Agnes
Scott College, to let us know
what you want, what you expect,
and what you will attend in the
way of social events on the
campus.

We feel that this is going to
be a year packed full of fun and
excitement and are anxious
to do our part to make it just
that.

FALL RETREAT -1965

Philosopher's Position Today

New Haven , Conn.-(I.P.-
Philosophers today have little
status and less influence in
contemporary American Life.
One reason, according to Paul
Weiss, Sterling Professor of
Philosophy at Yale, is that there
is a "new breed of 'non-philoso-
phical philosophers!."

"These philosophers consider
themselves 'professionals' who
speak only with one another and
try to solve puzzles instead of
dealing with the full problem.
Thsy are playing games
of academic charades I"

This failure to communicate
has boomeranged, in the opinion
of Professor Weiss, to the point
where philosophers have little
status and less influence in
contemporary American life.
Who are asked to give answers
to questions asked by a worried
and tense American Public?
The politicians, the psychiat-
rist, and even the clergy, but
rarely the philosophers, Pro-

fessor Weiss
cusingly.

points out ac-

New Grading System
Gives Truer Picture

The "new breed'* of philoso-
phers is also cheating college
students, in his opinion. "More
than ever before, students are
asking questions about life and
society, but they don't get ans-
wers from philosophers who
won't discuss seriously any
subject outside their speci-
alty," he says.

Religious leaders are also
failing these students in a
different way, Professor Weiss
says. He feels that college
chaplains across the country
are prescribing "crusading ac-
tivity" as the answer to all
question. "When a student has
a serious question or doubt
abuut life, the clergy tells him
to rush off and do civil rights
work down South or join the
Peace Corps. Too much ac-
tivity and too little thinking
can be disastrous."

Albion Mich.-(I.P.)-A new
grading procedure incorpora-
ting intermediate achievement
levels will be introduced at
Albion College beginning with
the 1965 fall semester. The
institution's faculty also voted
to replace the three-point grad-
ing system with a four-point
index. The new grading proce-
dure will include the marks
of A, AB, B, BC, C, CD, DE,
and E.

"Grade points will be assig-
ned to the intermediate marks,
thus reflecting a truer account
of the student's performance
of the student's performance,"
said Dr. Robert P. Lisensky,
academic dean. "Pluses and
minuses, awarded by some fac-

ulty , do not affect the stud-
ent's grade point average in
any way, nor do they appear
on his final transcript," he
added.

"Under the new system, a
student doing B plus work will
receive an AB grade and a
grade point of 3.5." The over-
all grade point average required
f or graduation will be 2.0. A 2.25
average will be required in the
major field.

Cluster Living

RETREAT SPEECH

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

Los Angeles, Calif.-(I-P.)
_The new master plan for Oc-
cidental College, designed by
Pereira and Associates, in-
cludes a co-ed dorm scheduled
for occupancy by the fall of 1966.
The campus site will be
occupied by "cluster re-
sidences" rather than the tra-
ditional uOT JIJ.

The cluster residence will
house units of 16 students, in
eight rooms around a lounge and
bath. The master plan utilizes
theconceptionof academic cen-
ters as the logical fulfillment
of the liberal arts college.

The "cluster residence" is
in effect, a revival of the Oxford
tradition with each cluster of
students having similar and
compatible interests. Conceiv-
ably, units could be made up
of advanced language students,
and the intim y would provide
a more cons: tent atmosphere
for the informal exchange of
ideas which is the basic con-
cept of residence living.

The resident system has been
started at the University of
California at Irvine, and Pe-
riera and Associates are pre-
sently preparing final plans for
the Occidenial dorm.

Designed for 150 students,
the dorm will be about sixty
per cent men and forty per
cent women. The cluster units
will be connected to a central
lounge serving both men and
women. In fall 1966, when it
will be opened for residence,
the dorm will probably be limit-
ed to upperclass students with
major interests in language.

Although dorms are presently
unfilled, the Men's Residence
Council is re-evaluating the
present requirements for off-
campus living. The result will
probably be a return to the po-
licy stated in the catalogue
of total residence of all fresh-
man and sophomore men. In
the past few years, the Deans
have been forced to make ex-
ceptions because of the over-
flow student residency.

a protest against the "machine," that is, against the impersonal
quality of a mass education. They wanted to be individuals, not
numbers on IBM cards. They wanted real professors, not tele-
vision lecturers. And they cared; they cared enough to do some-
thing about it. As one Berkeley student said, "We're happening."

These two incidents are only a small indication of the vitality
on American campuses, campuses in which students ire happening.

In order not to be misunderstood, I should point out here that I
believe that what happens on another campus is not necessarily
relevant or even right for Agnes Scott. But the vitality and the
commitment which is characteristic of today's student world is
relevant to Agnes Scott College. This vitality and concern is
manifested in different ways on different campuses ranging from
the legal and constitutional rights of students to the right of the
editor to print freely, from due process to in loco parentis, from
student films to academic freedom. The messages rising up from
today's American colleges is not always clear, but it is loud.
Our student generation is a vocal and active generation. It rep-*
resents a new student, one who cares, one who wants to do and be
and find out how.

How does Agnes Scott stand in relation to the new student gene-
ration? jLJs obvious from past retreat themes such as Focus,
Identity,, and Perspective that we have dealt with the traditional
questions, with the first two aspects of a full profile. Years of
dissection and structural analysis have preceded us. Concrete
goals and the fulfillment of these goals have taken second place to
self-analysis, and they have consequently been forgotten. It is
not necessary for me to comment on the lack of vitality that has
thus become almost the characteristic of our campus.

Yet the analysis that has been done was necessary; it was a
necessary precondition for the kind of emphasis we COULD have
this year. In a subtle and undynamic way, we can begin to make
Agnes Scott the kind of school we thought it was before we came
here. But there will be no great renaissance overnight. We can
only begin, but we can do that. In evaluating our year, we may feel
that we have done little. But if we can say at the conclusion of this
year: "Agnes Scott is not only a school WITH promise, it is a
crete plans and with an excitement that will generate outward and
pervade the campus, the we will have done our part.

I would, therefore, challenge this student government associa-

tion now and throughout the coming year to consider our markings
as a college community. I would challenge you to preserve the
integrity of our student government and our student body by pro-
ducing a new and COMPLETED profile. I would challenge you to
become concerned with and involved in the great issues of our day
as well as the more parochial issues and programs on the Agnes
Scott campus. In short, I challenge you to a creativity and a com-
mitment that will gain for Agnes Scott the kind of respect it de-
serves.

This challenge is not an easy one. No challenge ever is. But
with the Apostle Paul, we might also declare, "Not as though I
had already attained, neither were already perfect ... but this one
thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching

The mark will be what you make it. It is for you to decide and

Danish Visitor Studies Psych;
Likes Warm Nights, Big Stitches

One of the newcomers whose
name you've probably mis-pro-
nounced is Ingebord Bojsen
from Naestved, Denmark. "So
many people have tried to pro-
nounce my last name, some-
times I can't pronounce it when
they ask," she commented.

It's really not so hard In-
ga-bor Boisen is how it sounds,
and she's been conviently nic-
named Inge.

A psychology major, Inge is
taking sociology, art apprecia-
tion, English, and dance, along
with an upper level psych
course.

Q: "Will you get full col-
lege credit for this year?"

A: "Not quite. I'm taking
psychology, but not as much as
I would at home. In our system
you go through and just take
courses in your major. We
don't have liberal arts col-
leges." Inge will return to the
University of Copenhagen in
Spring. She sDeaks English
very proficiently having studied
seven years.

Q: "How does Atlanta com-
pare in size to your hometown?"

October 22

A: "Naestved has about
25,000 inhabitants. I like At-
lanta very much because of all
the possibilities to go to thea-
tre, movies, concerts." About
shopping, Inge's reaction was
that of any shopper: "I 've
been to Rich's and it was do
big I couldn't find my way
aroundl"

Inge enthusiastically com-
mented on the weather. "I
like especially your warm nights
you can go without a thick
coat and warm things around
your hair."

Q: "What's this I hear about
you and Clair making curtains
for your room by hand-
did you?"

A: "yes," she laughed, "but
we made them with very big
stiches!" She and Clair Gaines,
a junior from Atlanta, are ro-
oming in Sturgis. Commenting
on the friendliness she's en-
countered, Inge said, "I think
it is very typical of the South-
ern people."

Q: "What about your social
life in Denmark is it very
different from our own?"

A: "Yes, quite different.
What we have is not really a
dating system. It's not nearly
so organized as it is here."

Inges's year at Scott is
being financially sponsored by
the Decatur Rotary Club. She
is here under the auspices of
the Institute of International
Education, which placed her at
Agnes Scott.

Alstons Visit Mansfield,
Tour British Landmarks

Dr. and Mrs. Alston have
recently returned from an
eight week pleasure trip through
the British Isles.

At Mcinsfield College at Ox-
ford the Alstons turned the
tables and lived in a campus
dormitory. Dr. Alston attended
two seminars in theology
there.

The seminars featured such
renowned scholars and lectures
as J.A.T. Robinson, author of
Honest to God, D.T. Niles of

Ceylon, and C.H. Dodd, the
New Testament scholar.

During their stay at Mansfield
College the Alstons made a
weekend trip to Coventry. A
key English industrial city,
Coventry was devasted by
German air attacks during
World War 11. The present
modern Anglican cathedral is
built around the shell of the
bombed out cathedral.

Dr. Alston says that Coventry
has inaugurated a unique
program of layman worship
services. This new typs of
service creates a more per-
sonal and meaningful relation-
church.

Also the people of Coventry
have established a liaison with
the people of Dresden, Germany
which was similarly destroyed
by exchanging gifts as symbols
of their Christian brotherhood.

After leaving Oxford the Al-
stons acquired a red Ford An-
glia and traveled leisurely
across the English countryside.
They visited Cornwall, the le-
gendary land of King Arthur,
and Shakespeare's home at
Stratford among other places.

In studing some of their
favorite English authors, the
Alstons visited the prison where
John Bunyan was held and the
village church which exerted a
strong influence upon him.

The home of the Brontes at
Haworth was a highlight of the
trip. The house, isolated on
a wind-swept nil, in the moors
recreated for the Alstons the
feeling of Wuthering Heights and
Jane Eyre,

Scotland, the land of Sir
Walter Scott, Thomas Carlyle,
Robert Louis Stevenson, and
Robert Burns,, was their next
stop. In order to become closer
to the Scotland of the past
the Alstons stayed in 15th and
16th century inns.

Before returning home the
Alstons attended a part of the
music festival at Edinburgh.
The festival held at St. Giles
Cathedral was a service of
praise and thanksgiving by
people of many cities and nat-
ions.

At the end of their stay in
Edinburgh and the British Isles
the Alstons attende d per-
formance of M.ihler's Eight
. Symphony by the Scotch National
Symphony and the National
Chorus.

Day Convocation on Wednesday

cation."

Dr. Boas' degree include B.A.
and M.A. from Brown Univer-
sity; M.A., Harvard; Ph. D.,
University of California; L.L.
D., Washington and Lee Univer-
sity, University of New Mexico;
L.H.D., Washington College, The
Johns Hopkins University.

Before joining the faculty of
John Hopkins he was instruc-
tor of forensics at the Univer-
sity of California.

Dr. Boas has been a trustee
of the Baltimore Museum of Art,
a member of the Institute of
Advanced Study, a fellow of
the Center of Advanced Stu-
dies at Wesleyan University;
and a member of several as-
sociations of philosophers.

He has done research in
French philosophy, primitivism
and related subjects, and aes-
thetics.

Dr. Boas has written many
books, among them The Heaven
of Invention, The Limits of
Reason. Rationalism in Greek
Philosophy, and Dominant The-
mes of Modern Philosophy . His
forthcoming book is Cult of
Childhood.

Foster Finds Paris Life
Bearable Despite Reports

by Bunny Foster

DANISH SPECIAL STUDENT
^nge Bojsen smiles at Scott
and the United States in gen-
eral.

"Oh, I didn't like Paris, "
everyone told me before, during
and after my stay there this
summer. Somehow they still have
not convinced me that life in Paris
is unbearable , and I am still
enthusiastic about all that I
learned and saw there in the six
weeks that I studied art at the
American Center for Students
and Artists this summer.

Survival is no easy job in
Paris if one lives, as twenty-
five of us did, a little off the
beaten track in a non-English
speaking neighborhood.

We stayed at the Maison des

Etudiantes, a kind of international
student boarding house hosted by
two members of that famous
breed of Paris ien, the concier-
ges, whose main concerns were
to control with a steady hand the
incoming mail and clip from
it any stamps for which they
might get a good price at the
bookstalls, and to see that we
took no more than three showers
a week.

In the studios we were wonder-
fully suspended between French
and American ways of life. Our
professors - were American, but
the influences on our work were

Student Government Group To
Convene On Scott Campus

Art is not creation but selec-
tion and synthesis. The writer,
painter, musician, dancer
seems to create a world in his
work.

But in reality, the artist se-
lects thoughts, characteristics,
colors, forms, tones, rhythms,
movements from the universe
about him and m
about him and combines them in
RE-cr^ating that which he calls
his work of art.

Science works with the ob-
servable facts, selecting and
combining observations to
bring order and meaning to our
knowledge. Perhaps it is on
the verge of "creating" life

from certain elements we can
control.

The artist's act of creation,
the scientist's discovery of a
theory, the prospect of re-
creating of life produce a
tremendous thrill in the hu-
man being.

An artist or scientist usually
feels that his work of syn-
thesis is the result of inspira-
tion from outside himself. What
would be the power of a Force
or Being who created anything,
even if it was a tiny force or
substance from which all else
would grow, where nothing had
existed before!

The Southern Intercollegiate
Association of Student Govern-
ments (SIASG) will hold its
51st annual conference on the
Agnes Scott campus next April.

SIASG is a federation of wo-
men's student governments
which founded in 1914. Dele-
gates come from sixteen col-

Atlanta, Ga. -(I.'P)-Emory
University will begin a pro-
gram this fall in which stu-
dents can earn a Ph.D. de-
gree in chemistry only six
years after entering college as
a freshman.

Initiation of the program
coincides with a major cur-
riculm revision within the Em-
ory College which will allow
students more leeway in course
work during their senior year.
This change will mean that stu-
dents participating in the com-
bined chemistry program will
be able to start graduate work
as seniors.

Emory would not have con-
sidered a combined program in
chemistry several years ago,
but students are now coming
to college better and better pre-
pared in science.

At Emory, the improve

leges in eleven states.

Each year at the convention
officers who run the associa-
tion are elected from the dele-
gates present. Last year's
conference was held in Abing-
don, Virginia and from 70 to
100 delegates attended.

1965-1966 officers represent

ment in preparation is dramati-
cally illustrated in mathematics
where approximately 100 fresh-
men now take calculus each
fall. This subject was formerly
a junior course.

A major factor behind the ac-
celerated program is the grow-
ing realization that education is
a continual process. A steadily
increasing number of students
go on to one or two years
of post-graduate work (largely
research) following their doc-
torate.

The combined under-gra-
duate-graduate program will
enable superior students to
move more rapidly through the
Ph.D degree; saving two years
which can be used in post-
graduate work.

Tennessee Tech, Judson Col-
i lete, Merer, and Coker Col-
lege.

Judy Ahrano, who with Su-
1 san Ledford attended the 1964-
65 convention is very excited
i about the convention for this
year. "Agnes Scott has be-
longed to SIASG for a long
time and has never had the
convention on her campus."

Judy believes that Scott has
a lot to add to SIASG and hopes
that people on campus will get
interested in it.

Although we have only two
voting delegates, anyone can
sit and listen.

Several Scott people have
been prominent in SIASG. Mon-
key Lee (class of 64) was Pre-
sident of the 1963-64 associa-
tion. The senior resident of
Main, Miss Mary Currie, was
also president while she was
at Queens.

At present the main func-
tion of the Association is to
hold the yearly convention and
exchange ideas and problems of
and about student govern-
ments.

The convention is also a kind
of leadership convention since
each school usually sends its
highest officers president of
the student body and chairman
of judicial to talk about their
problems and responsibilities
as leaders.

Judy reports that there are
many uptapped funds in the
SIASG which could be useful.
"In fact, the whole associa-
tion is an untapped resource
there are many problems (such
as integration) that it could
be working with."

Sound And Fury

For freshmen, Black Cat will be an entertaining pageant, full
of the sound of well-rehearsed contest songs and the fury of the
first hockey game.

Signifying nothing? Just the opposite. It will be their own special
investiture. With the traditional handling over of the Black Cat
to their class president, they will offically belong to this student
body.

For upperclassmen, Black Cat will be the culmination of a
great deal of hard work. It will be theexecutionof a complex plan
which has been growing and taking shape since last spring. It
will mean back to class songs, costumes, and hockey sticks.

Black Cat, freshmen, is an old tradition at Agnes Scott. In
1936 each class had a stunt in the fall, and the winner of this
competition was awarded a small porcelain black cat. In 1946
the freshmen and sophomores competed in dram a productions. Hie
winner was allowed to add a small silver bell to the chain around
the cat's neck. 1951 marked the return to competitive stunts, and
in 1962 Black Cat took on its present form. The sophomores,
juniors, and seniors present skits, and the freshmsnpresent a tal-
ent show.

On Black Cat Day, the upperclassmen will meet the Class of
1969 on equal ground for the first time. We will challenge your
prowess at hockey, and at musical composition. We will entertain
you with an elaborate spoof on life at Scott, and you will entertain
us with your own special talent.

The Class of 1969 will have an important part in Black Cat.
You will have your own "cats" on the bill, your own hockey team,
you own talent, your own song. You, too, will sing the year song.

Black Cat is a collossal amount of work, just for the upper-
classmen to say "Welcome Freshmen" for the last time. We
think it's worth it. It's worth it because we want you to be one of
us, and at Black Cat we let you in on many of the jokes and many
of the traditions that describe our common ground, soon your
common ground.

It will be a big day. I don't think I'd swap it for a football
weekend. If you enjoy this day-long furor over Le Chat Noir as
much as we do, you WILL belong.

ON CREATION Recital, Reception Traditions

By Grace Winn

Last week there were the usual September 22 complaints about
the program of chamber music and the formal reception.

Freshmen and upperclassmen alike protested a dislike of any
music so high class as well as a reluctance to dress up and meet
professors and fellow students in a somewhat formal atmosphere.

These personal considerations cannot be as important as this
part of the opening of school and what it means.

The recital and reception, despite any of their drawbacks,
are as much a part of our first day as is our singing of the hymn
asking for wisdom and courage "for the facing of this hour" and
"the living of these days."

These are traditions of the beginning of the new academic year
at Agnes Scott. Traditions that we must not lose.

"MOCKINGS'
FROM
RAMONA

Dear Mom,

Despite the fact that I am
now 30 hours behind in my
studying, I am settling down
and liking my courses. I like
English best. It's really great.
I know from the depth of the
reading we're doing that I've
really hit college.

The only real academic pro-
blem is chemistry lab. First,
it conflicts with my 3-hour
afternoon nap. That has been
cut a bit. Also I spilled acid
all over my feet. My loafers
are now sandals.
1 think my Junior Sponsor still
holds a grudge about that Pied-
mont Hotel affair, but other
than that, our orientation group
is pretty congenial. We all
went to the music recital and
formal reception last week.

I made quite a splash at the
reception, I spilled chewing
gum-flavored punch all over my
Bible professor and my one
decent cocktail dress.

My performance in the re-
ceiving line was equally suc-
cessful. I tripped over the rug
into the chairman of the board
and we both fell into the study
smoker. He made it back all
right, but I managed to step on
Miss Scandrett's toe.

I've gotten to know Cassan-
dra better. There is now no
doubt. Our personalities are
completely opposite. For one
thing, she goes to bed at 8:30
and gets up at 4:00 to paint
the sunrise. It wouldn't be so
bad, but I usually don't turn
in before 2:00 and she makes
quite a racket getting her eisel
from under my bed.

One advantage of her artis-
tic inclination is that the room
is now decorated with Cassan-
dra originals. The one I like
best is the one she did directly
on the wall by my closet. It's
"Sunrise in Paducah" I may be
not be much of an art critic,
but I can't see why it's nothing
but feet.

Jerome, that wonderful boy
I met at the picnic , has been
trying to call me ever since.
He's left 57 messages. I've
finally deciphered the code of
the phone message book and
learned that he usually calls be-
tween 6:13 and 6:27 so I'll try
to be here from now on.

Meanwhile I've been to se-
veral rush parties, most of
which were pretty awful. At
one the ratio was 17 girls to
one boy. The best one was
Rho Rho Rho. They had a boat-
ing party at Lake Lanier.

One of the brothers was very
nice. He kept trying to snow
me; then I noticed he also kept
insisting that I bring my Junior
Sponsor to the next party.

One bad spot was my going
up the creek with the frater-
nity bore. He managed to lose
the paddle and we sat there for
three hours. And that's really
up a creek.

You may think this party
sounds as bad as the others,
but the end was nice. As we
were singing around the fire
I noticed that one boy kept
staring at me.

Then he came over and an-
nounced that I had spilled my
Nutty Buddy down my shirt.
It was embarassing at first but
then we laughed about it. He
did especially.

We talked for the ten minutes
left and he asked me to the
next party, so I'm looking for-
ward to Saturday night.

I was happy to hear from you
about Butch' s improvement. My

If the sneak preview of the

up proves valid, the "A. A.

ion shows a strong offensive
team with no need for defense.

The starting line-up reveals

A hockey play day will be sche-
duled for November with teams
from neighboring women's coll-
eges.

Working hand-in-hand with
the center is the quarterback,
a hockey clinic. A day will
be devoted to training in hockey
skills and basic maneuvers. It
is hoped that a touring coach
will be able to help with the
clinic.

A swift backfield is predicted
for the '65 season. Tennis
occupies the fullback position
with both the singles tourna-
ment and the Tennis Club try-
outs.

At the left halfback slot,
horseback riding will cater to
the elite of the campus. Swim-
ming, right halfback, should be
faster than any previous year.
The swim meet is scheduled
for November 9.

Junior Year Abroad
Sedately Exciting

11

by < ranees Foreman

"Well, Moth2r, I guess you
might say he was a typical
frenchman," wrote the daugh-
ter. The mother is Mrs. Morse,
the alumna who welcomed the
student body to Scott in Con-
vocation last Wednesday. The
daughter' is Anne Morse, a te-
turning senior who spent her
junior year abroad.

Anne, studying with the
sweetbriar Junior Year Abroad
Program, had what might be
called a reasonably, sedately
exciting year in France with
side trips into neighboring
countries during vacations.

Sailing on the Mauretania
from Mew York Sept. 3, 1964,
Anne set forth with 110 Ameri-
can students representing 52
colleges. She observed that
"Americans, especially college
students, don't change." She
ran into her shipmates all over
Europe.

For the first six weeks, Anne,
and the others on her program
stayed in Tours. While there
she and some friends biked up
to Chenonceau, looking perhaps
liky ugly Americans, she says,
decked out in wool on a French
summer day. "We didn't think
it would be hot in Francel"

The object of those first
weeks in Tours was to learn
to speak French and Tours
French is supposed to be the
purest, and the slowest, Ann
said. She stayed with a French
family in tours. Daughters ages
eight and 22 spoke English,
but that was defendu, soAnne
struggled along with her French

On October 24 she went to

WASHINGTON (CPS) - The
House Foreign Affairs Commit-

approved a Senate-passed reso-
lution that would permit the do-
mestic showing of a documen-
tary film on the late President

The committee accepted with-

would permit the John F. Ken-
nedy Center for the Perform-
ing Arts to distribute the film
in this country "through edu-
cational and commercial chan-
nels."

The film, "John F. Kennedy

Drums," was produced by the
United States Information Agen-
cy. A long-standing congres-
sional policy prohibits the do-
mestic showing of USlA-pro-
duced films. This resolution
would make an acception only
in the case of the Kennedy film.

She began classes in politi-
cal science, art, twentieth cen-
tury French literature, and
drama.

By the time Dr, McCain called
her on his way through Paris,
Anne had almost forgotten hefw
to speak English, she reports.
She and her University of Wis-
consin roomate kept their pact
to speak only French until
spring quarter, when they dis-
covered that their "sense of
humor had somehow been lost
in the French," Anne said.

She remembers Christmas in
Vienna looking for snow, a phone
call home on Christmas Day,
New Year's in Munich's oldest
beer cellar, Mardi Gras on the
Riviersa, May in Holland.

In Germany she met
the prisoner of war guard who
had announced her birth to her
father. He and his wife en-
tertained her royally in their
home, she reports. "All this
time I was studying seriously,
be sure to put that in," she
added.

The returning senior spent
July looking after 14 children

in the resort city of La Baule.
She cooked, lifeguarded, biked,
and was general entertainer
in French for all 14 children.

After a final five days in
London, Anne flew from Luxem-
burg to Atlanta. She reports
that she is glad to be home
and is getting used to the Ame-
rican way of life again.

the things we saw around us, the
French things. Our scheduled
classes in graphics, life drawing,
painting, and history were very

flexible in structure, and we often
left the Center in a group to
go somewhere to learn in the
field.

We were fortunate to meet
Monsieur Kahnweiler, Picasso's
only dealer for almost sixty
years. He showed us three new
paintings by Picasso which have
never been exhibited. One after-
noon we were invited to see the
printmaking shop of Le Courri-
ere, where a Bernard Buffet
lithograph and a book of 250
editions were being run off on
presses which have been printing
works by Roualt, Matisse, Miro,
Picasso and others for seventy-
five years. Nowhere but in Paris
could we have stumbled onto two
Africans with a carfull, of
African tribal art which they very
willingly unloaded for us to ex-
amine.

Fridays took us to outlying
districts of Paris, Versailles,

Chartres, Chantilly, and
Royaumont for tours led by our
professors, who included the
head of the art history depart-
ment at the University v of Cali-
fornia at Berkley, the world's
foremost authority on medieval
architecture, the director of the
American Center, a world-fam-
ous graphic artist, and others.

The most valuable thing I
learned was that the way to see
a foreign country is to live and
study there, to become a part
of the culture as nearly as pos-
sible in the amount of time
allowed. Paris is still for me
the art capital of the world;
surely the people who do not
like Paris have never been
art students there.

Puts Profs
In Spotlight

Austin, Texas-(I.P.) -The
University of Texas Union has
initiated a Famous Lecture Se-
ries in which selected faculty
members are invited to give
their "pet lectures" in an in-
formal setting.

This innovation should prove
popular with students who us-
ually find their schedules too
crowded to sample courses in
other fields taught by profes-
sors deemed outstanding by the
campus "grapevine."

The series grew out of the
Union's Student-Faculty Com-
mittee which seeks to improve
out-of-class relationships be-
tween students and faculty
members. It was also inspired
by students who felt there was
a need to provide an open fo-
rum for many academic dis-
ciplines.

For the most part, lectures
are scheduled in the Union in
the late afternoon to avoid con-
flicts with regular scheduled
classes. Since the invited spea-
kers present material they nor-
mally give in their own class-
rooms, they do not have to pre-
pare special notes.

SENIOR SCHOLARS

Never before in the history of Agnes Scott has one
class won the Class ScholarshipTrophy for three years
in a row. Those who have been around Scott for many
years tell us that never before have students prized
this honor so highly.

Today's awarding of the Scholarship Trophy to the
Class of 1966 does not mean that the senior class
includes the students with the highest l.Q. ratings or
with the most intelligence. It means that somewhere,
early in the college career of this class, a spark of
scholarship, a spark of the deep satisfaction of learn-
ing, caught fire and spread through a class. This
class's dedication to learning was monitored in the
gradebooks, and then symbolized in the Scholarship
Trophy.

Farbeit from me, a true- to-the-Golden-Mean, medi-
ocre student, to brag on myself. lam praising the ac-
complishments of my sisters who prize the mastery
of a small part of all there is to learn. This trophy
will be one of the brightest memories that the Class
of 1966 will take away with them in June. This mem-
ory, this record which the senior class has made, is
a permanent one, rooted in the good minds of many stu-
|| dents.

The members of the Class of 1966, and students like
them, in one sense will win scholarship trophies in
the future each time they close a book with the satis-
faction of knowing that their minds are still growing,

ACADEMIC HOLIDAY?

Junior Year Abroad this phrase calls to mind nifty holidays
on the Riviera, Continental men, fluency in a foreign language,
and familiarity with customs different from our own.

How often does one think of nine months of intensive study in a
European school when one hears the phrase Junior Year Abroad?
We feel that this is a valid question: Is it academically worth-
while to spend a college year abroad?

There are two answers. Yes, a Junior Year Abroad Program
is academically worthwhile when the curricula of the American
school and that of the school abroad dovetail nicely. In such a sit-
uation there are no gaps in the over-all course of study, and no
repetition of courses.

But what of the school whose Junior Year Abroad Program
causes curricular gaps or repetitions? This is often the case in
American schools which are not especially geared to such a Year
Abroad Program. Here the answer would have to be no, a year
abroad is not academically worthwhile.

What about Agnes Scott? We are a FOUR YEAR liberal arts
college. And yet Scott students often spend one of their four col-
lege years abroad, through the programs of other schools, with
the sanction of Agnes Scott. To answer our original question
about Scott in particular, we must admit first of all that most of
our students who go abroad are probably not going to spend as much
time studying as they would here. Who would, with Europe at her
feeti They will have one year in their major at Scott, rather
than the usual two. However, these traveled students bring back
new perspectives on their major course o f study, perspectives
which enrich and enlighten the staid atmosphere of our class-
rooms. They can often make courses come alive for other students
who have never seen beyond their textbooks.

It remains for Agnes Scott to see that the pros and cons of this
issue be dealt with in such a way that we CAN give a hearty af-
firmative answer to our question, YES, our juniors who go abroad
do have a full-blooded academic year. Students must start early
in planning major courses, with an eye to the courses offered at
European schools. The administration and faculty must direct
students into the Junior Year Abroad programs which best suit the
Scott curriculum. Both students and administration must say
"no" to a year abroad if the academic benefits involved seem
too low.

Of course, we want to retain every glimmer of cosmopolitan
light that we can, here in Decatur, Georgia. Our fresh-off-the-
boat rising seniors are a rising

boat rising seniors are a big help in this area. But we MUST not
lose our strong, steady light of academic excellence. We have
no room for academic holidays.

WALK TIME

'The time has come," the Walrus said,
"To talk of many things,
Of shoes and ships and sealing wax."
Of a walk across the quad.
Yes. The little quadrangle is in desperate need of a walk.
The Dana Building is now in full use and those scores of drama,
art, and philosophy students are daily flocking across the small
quad to their classes.

Their path is not arbitrary shortcutting but the sensible route.
It is ridiculous to expect anyone to go the much longer way on the
existing walkways. Dr. Alston must agree. He was recently spot-
ted tromping on the grass with the best of us.

Therefore we strongly recommend the construction, as soon as
possible, of a walk from the steps between Presser and Buttrick
to the brick area between Campbell and parking lot.

NATO AFTER 16 YEARS

This year marks the sixteenth year of existence for the North
Atlanta Treaty Organization, probably the most important of
all the United States' defense arrangements.

Because of this, the United States Department has issued a
bulletin under the authorship of David Popper which gives an
assessment of the purposes and accomplishments of this alli-
ance of western states.

The bulletin states that a created, NATO remains an instru-
ment strictly for "collective defense." This defense is comprised
not so much in the total military strength of its members, but in
the organization of their resources to act effectively in case of
need.

Also, because of the appearance of nuclear weapons, where
deterral .of an attack is of prime importance, efficiency is a
most important factor. An individual approach to this type
of defense is, to say the least, risky.

For this reason, popper maintains, certain forces are com-
mitted to NATO. These forces are supported by "a system of
commonly built and owned facilities," such as airfields, com-
munications networks , and port facilities.

These would be quickly put into use if any one of the NATO
nations were attacked. With these defense arrangements in
effect since the formation of the alliance, it is important to
note that there have been no Communist territorial gains in
the NATO area.

Therefore, it can be said that NATO has been a highly success-
ful organization.

Besides the defense mechanisms, another feature of NATO is the
NATO Council. The members of this council can meet within an
hour's notice, enabling it to confer on impending crises. Earing
the 1962 "Cuban crisis" the allies gave their verbal support to
the U.S. through this council.

The council also meets to confer on Communist develop-
ments, coordination of policies, and moderation of controversies
between two allies.

These important features stated by Mr. Popper are undoubtedly
true. However, NATO does face some serious problems.

For one, there is the dissention over the control of nuclear
weapons. Mr. Popper defends the United States present stand
of insistence on controlling them, because he believes that
spreading "the burden of nuclear defense" would create a
dangerous separation of nuclear forces.

Yet if the United States does not trust our allies to defend
their homes with our modern and appropriate weapons , these
nations will soon develop their own. Instead of strengthening
NATO, this would tend to make these powers more independent.

And Mr. Popper himself says that independent defense is
risky. In refusing to grant this control, the United States could
be isolating herself.

NATO is a valuable part of the free world today. The U.S.
is its most important power. She can guarantee the future suc-
cess of not only NATO, but herself, if she leads instead of bullies
her allies.

Davidson
Literary Mag

Makes Change

The literary publication of
Davidson College will have a
new name and a new look this
year, "The Davidsonian," the
school's campus newspaper,
announced recently.

Formerly called "Scripts
*N Pranks," the publication will
now be called "Miscellany,"
editor Charles Vick said. The
name comes from the title of
a journal of Elizabethan Eng-
land. Vick hopes that the chang-
ed name will end confusion of
the literary magazine with the
school's yearbook, "Quips and
Cranks."

In addition to the change in
name, the publication has gone
from a slick paper magazine to
a 9 to 12 inch hard-cover book
form. Editors say they hope
the change will give "a cer-
tain continuity and respecta-
bility" to the "Miscellany."

"We're trying to produce
something that the students
won't just read and then throw
away," said Vick, "but some-
thing that they will save."

Editorial contents of the fall
issue of the "Miscellany" will
include a short story by Samuel
P. Adinaryan, a former visit-
ing professor of psychology at
the college, poetry by profes-
sors and literary and artis-
tic contributions by students.

The first issue will appear
before Thanksgiving.

Class Meeting
Was Immature

tact with the shades of impor-

shades of meaning behind want-
ing or not wanting a mascot?
It should make one thoughtful.

Marganne Hendricks

Dear Editors:

The first meeting of the sen-
ior class was an eye-opening
experience in many ways- pri-
marily because the transactions
still bother me.

The order of business was to
decide whether or not the class
wanted to have a mascot, for it
seems that such has been the
practice of past classes.

Much to my surprise, the
question was not settled by eith-
er an affirmative or negative
vote. Instead there was a great
deal of discussion- fifteen min-
utes worth.

Discussion in and of itself is
not wrong especially at this
school, but was the question of
a mascot worth the shades of
grey, the dissection and the un-
derlying motives that were
brought forward?

If the "maternal instinct"
is satisfied by a mascot, okay.
If you want a "structured mas-
cot", alright. But if we be-
come so excited about a ques-
tion that will not matter beyond
the hockey season and cer-
tainly not beyond June, 1966,
what will affect us and others

what wlII happen when other is-
sues and policies come up for
discussion that will affect us
and others beyond this year?

Are we going through another
phase in maturing or have we
lost the ability to choose wor-
thy issues? Have we lost con-

Here we are Where are
You I Do you know who we
are I What we dol Why we
are talking to you!

Is anyone out there really
interested in their in student
government? In case you do
not know, it is your Student
Government You have repre-
sentation. Do you use it?

Several years ago there was
an Executive Council with Ju-
dicial and Representative po-
wer. From this one board
has evolved the present
Judicial Board and Represen-
tative Council.

Your Representative Coun-
cil has been growing and
working hard to assume its
proper and rightful place. But
since you are all a part of
the body, it needs your con-
cern and thoughtful attention.

You ask what you can do.
You can attend the meetings.
They are held every Tuesday
at 5 p.m. in the new Repre-
sentative Council room in Re-
bekah.

You can take closer look at
your campus and give us your
ideas of what can be done, and
your evaluations of what has
been done. There is plenty
of time and desire on our part
for you to be heard.

We would welcome any sug-
gestions, just drop them in our
boxes. We're proud of Repre-
sentative Council. You should
be proud, too. So come see
us. Ann Glendenning Box 204

Judy Nuckols, C. A. discus-
sion chairman, said that Dr.
Greene will probably present
his ideas in relation to reli-
gious language. This will deal
with the question of whether
or not the religious terms we
use today are still relevant to
us. He might ask whether the
word "God" still holds this -
relevance for us.

Last year Dr. Greene gave a
similar type of discussion. The
gathering next Sunday will again
be held in the Cabin from 3:30-
5:30 p.m. C. A, plans to
serve refreshments and in-
vites the entire student body.

Conservatives
Elect Allen
'66 President

The first meeting of the Young
Conservative Club for the year
was held September 30. The
officers for the coming year
will be Claire Allen, president;
Sue Thompson, vice-president;
and Laura Carmichael, trea-
surer.

A run-off will be held bet-
ween Ida Copenhaver and Mona
Umphlett for vice-president.

Various projects for the com-
ing year were discussed.
Among these, the club has of-
fered to sponsor, along with
NSA Co-ordinator Linda Lou
Colvard, a program of discus-
sions on current problems, with
analyses of all sides of the
problems discussed.

The first club program for
this year will be a discussion
of the welfare state.

The general policy of the
Young Conservatives Club is to
have no affiliation with any
specific group in order to work
with several conservative or-
ganizations. This policy was
empasized for the new members
at the meeting.

President Claire Allen said
that "there is room for all
shades of conservative opinions
in the club."

THE PROFILE

"MOCKINGS"
FROM
RAMON A

Dear Mom,

Well, my date my Nutty Buddy
friend war really wild. It all
began as I was trying to sign
out. In my rush I forgot the
housemother's name and just
put down Miss Elaninius. Good
old Rho Rho Rho thought up an
excitingly different idea for the
occasion it was a drinking
party. I went as a dry county.

The band was terrific -Paul
Bunyan and the Blue Ox Five.
I was really worn out after
dancing the Ostrich, the Cart-
wheel, and my favorite, the-
Jackass.

The party was fun; the trouble
came afterward. Guess what.
You don't meet the nicest people
on a Honda. One of them ran
into us. After 30 minutes of
argument there, we journeyed
on to the next delay a 327-
car freight train was stuck on
the track. After only 15 minutes
it finally moved and we got
back to school.

By some miraculous means
I was able to explain my late-
ness to Miss Scandrett and Su-
san Ledford, my hall repre-
sentative, but when they ques-
tioned me about the housemo-
ther, I just couldn't fake it.
I now have a two-week restrict-
ed campus, but other than that,
my record's clean.

After that adventure, bright
and early the next afternoon
I settled down to write my
first English paper, due Mon-
day. It was to be just a three-
page essay so I wasn't too wor-
ried. After eight hours, I
decided on the topic. I strug-
gled on from there and turned
it in today. It was late, of
course, but I'm confident that
I'll get a good grade.

Cassandra and I still have
opposing personalities, but we
have united against the com-
mon enemy. Remember that
painting. I really had gotten
attached to it as it sat there
over my closet. But Mrs.
Smith and her crew sent up !
some painters to cover it up.

We spotted these strange men
in our room and immediately
called the State Militia. As
they were pulling up in a tank,
Mrs. Smith herself came out
and sweetly explained that these
men were not the robbers we
had been warned about.

Another highlight in my
life has been Black Cat ta-
lent tryouts. I really would
like to be in it, but the com-
mittee just didn't think much
of my ability to play the tuba
while juggling eggs (mainly be-
cause I dropped an egg down
the tuba.)

My tryout for the hockey team
was successful, however, pro-
bably because they took every-
one who came to the meeting.
My only mistake was hitting
Alice Davidson in the shoulder
three times. But I really crave
the game and I think it'll be
fun. Unless, of course, the
seniors really come after me.

I really hate to ask you, Mom,
but can you send me just $30
more. I was terribly impres-
sed by the C.A. Service and
I want to pledge. There are
also a few incidentals, like the
outfit I brought at Casual Cor-
ner.

I'm glad Butch is back in
tiptop shape, but don't let him
get too wild.

Love
Ramona

ASC Junior Kelly
Was Playboy Bunny

By Justic

''I'm Rabbit-Happy, I guess.
I just loved it," is junior
Madeline Kelly's summary of
her summer as a bunny at the
New Orleans Playboy Club.

Despite the "crazy hours"

(7:30 p.m. til 4:00 a.m.), and
having to wear three inch heels,
Madeline liked her summer so
well she plans to go back next
summer. The experiences and
working conditions of a Bunny
are unique.

A Bunny is thoroughly train-
ed before starting to work. Dur-
ing a week's training she learn-
es many tilings, such as how to
recognize the different keys,
since the club is a private key
" club. She learns the Bunny
stance and the Bunny Dip.

The dip is the unique posi-
tions from which Bunnies serve
the tables. With her back tc
the customer, she arches her
back and reaches over and ser-
ves. "It's comfortable," Mad-
eline explains, "since it's hard
to bend in the costume. It's
easy for balance, onceyoulearn
it there's no strain. It's fun."

One of Madeline's favorite
things about the work is having
a chance to get to know the en-
tertainers. During the sum-
mer the club had a variety of
stars such as Al Belletto and
his jazz quartet. Wick and
Brand comedy team was a high-
light. Known for their appear-
ances on the Johnny Carson
show, they're "two of the
nicest commedians you could
ever meet," recalled Made-
line. "They left something to
the imagination. They we re nice
on-stage and nice off-stage."

Bunnies work on a merit and
demerit system, based on cour-
teous service to the customers.
100 merits which Madeline
earned was worth $25 extra.
Each one girl is selected Bunny
of the Week for excellent ser-
vice; the title, which Madeline
earned twice, is worth 25 mer-
its and choice of schedule.

One of the hardest parts of the
job was learning how to carry
the tray on one hand. Some-
times the tray can weigh up to
35 or 40 lbs. "It's hard work,
quite an experience."

The Bunnies are known to be
very well protected from im-
pertinent customers. In each
room is a room director they
may complain to if a customer
is insulting after being warned
by the Bunny. "You learn to
ignore things," Madeline re-
calls. "If I didn't want to hear,
I could just cut it out you
know?"

Under no circumstances may
a Bunny date a key holder (a
customer). There is a rule too
that a customer may never touch

a Bunny under any circumstan-
ces. Madeline says the most
trouble is from women who want
to find out the material of the
tail or of the "shell" as
the outfit is called.

The fluffy white tail is a prob-
lem: it must be white and fluf-
fy as cotton candy all the time.
After it's been washed, it takes
over an hour to comb it out.
Madeline set it with spray netl
"Your crowning glory is your
tail," she said, laughing.

Madeline was especially
pleased when customers re-
turned to the club and requested
her as their waitress. "It was
an enjoyable feeling, knowing
they appreciate your service."

Charles A. Dana
Columbia Graduate

Dr. Charles Anderson Dana
was born in New York City
April 25, 1881. The son of a
leading banker, he received his
bachelor of arts degree from
Columba University in 1302 and
in 1904 was granted the M.A.
degree by the same institution.

In 1958 his alma mater
awarded him the honorary de
gree of doctor of laws.

Obse rvatory
Helps NASA
In Moon Blink

The Bradley Observatory and
the Atlanta Astronomy Club are
are involved in the project
"Moon Blink" which is spon-
sored by NASA.

There is equipment on loan
to be used to keep the moon
under survey and to check up
on a red spot which has been
observed on the surface of the
moon.

This red spot was first no-
ticed in 1958 by the Soviet
astronomer N. A. Kozyrev, who
obtained a spectrogram of sun-
light reflected from the moun-
tain peak in the middle of the
crater Alphonsus, and said that
a volcanic eruption occurred in
the mountain peaK.

"Moon Blink" hopes to find
out the origin and the cause of
this red spot.

Monday Night

The Dana Fine Arts Building
was dedicated this morning
"as an instrument of good tea-
ching, creative achievement,
and cultural enrichment" for
students and friends of Agnes
Scott College.

Trustees, faculty members,

friends and students filled Gai-
nes Chapel for the 10:10 a.m.
dedication service.

Philanthropist Dr. Charles A.
Dana, whose gift of $350,000
made the building possible, de-
livered the opening address of
the ceremonies.

Dalton Collection
To Be Shown Sunday

Sunday, October 24, the Dal-
ton Collection will be exhibit-
ed in the Dana Fine Arts Build-
ing.

Mr. and Mrs. Harry L. Dal-
ton, who donated the collection
to Agnes Scott, will attend the
opening.

Among the works which will
be on exhibit are watercolors
by several renowned artists:
"Balcony in Cuba" by Wins-
low Homer, "Moorings" by

John Singer Sargent and
"Trees" by Andrew Wyeth.

The exhibit features an oil
painting by an unknown Poin-
tillist artist and an oil painting
by John Sloan, "Road in the
Arroyo."

Also featured in the collec-
tion is a color lithograph by
Pablo Picasso entitled "Young
Bacchus," and an etching,
"Reverend Jan Uytenbogaard,"
by Rembrandt van Rijn.

Dr. Dana is married to the
former Miss Eleanor Naylor of
Sherman, Texas. He is the
father of four children - two
sons and two daughters.

He began his career as a law-
yer and served three terms as a
member of the state legislature
of New York. He subsequently
entered the business world
through supervising a complete
reorganization of the Spicer
Manufacturing Company which
in 1946 was re-named the Dana
Corporation - one of the na-
tion's leading manufacturers of
automobile spare parts.

He is currently chairman of
the Board of Director of this-
corporation. Dr. Dana is active
in other business enterprises
also, serving as president and
trustee of the Coralitos Com-
pany and as a director of the
Manufacturers Trust Company
of New York City, the Kelsey
Hayes Company, and the Cur-
tiss-Wright Corporation.

Mr. Dana has for many years
been keenly interested in edu-
cation and has devoted time,
energy, and resources to its
improvement and strengthen-
ing.

To further this interest he
established the Charles A. Dana
Foundation, Inc., a philanthro-
pic agency which has been and
continues to be of untold as-
sistance to many educational
institutions, particularly
throughout the eastern part of
the United States.

Through gifts for endowment,
for scholarships, and for build-
ings and equipment, Dr. Dana
has seen his educational inter-
est become a real factor in the
lives of young people.

The Charles A. Dana Fine
Arts Building at Agnes Scott is
an excellent example of Dr.
Dana's active concern for and
faith in the next generation.

the library; the books are to be moved to new shelves located
in a room off the Reserve Book Room. All this is included in
the library's "new look" this year.

The main address of the
morning was delivered by Ric-
hard H. Rich, chairman of the
board of Rich's, Inc., and chair-
man of the board of trustees of
the Atlanta Arts Alliance.

Rich complimented archi-
tects Edwards and Portman on
the "exciting building" they had
designed. "It is quite remark-
able," he said, that the fresh,
open, contemporary Dana had
been situated "in a community
of conservative buildings and
yet was on speaking terms with
its neighbors."

"We who make our living in
the materiality of free enter-
prise realize our need for the
refreshment of the arts," Rich
said, noting the contribution to
the community which the new
Dana building will make.

Dr. Wallace M. Alston, presi-
dent of Agnes Scott, delivered
the prayer of dedication for the
new building.

"Grant us help, O Lord, as
we accept this fine arts build-
ing as an entrustment from thy
hand and as we undertake to
use it for the purpose for which
it is intended. We would dedi-
cate it as an instrument of good
teaching, creative achievement,
and cultural enrichment for
students and our friends in the
larger community.

"May it bring understanding,
inspiration and pleasure, me-
diating beauty and interpreting
meaning and value to the mind
and heart," he prayed.

The new fine arts building
houses the art and philosophy de-
partments of the college. It in-
cludes galleries, a theatre sea-
ting 310, art and ceramics stu-
dios, outdoor courtyards, and
classrooms.

Estimated total cost for the
building is $1,050,000. The
building has been under con-
struction about 18 months; con-
tractors were the J. A. Jones
Construction Co. of Atlanta.

Problem In Dana Design:
Blend Of Old And New

The main problem in de-
signing Dana Hall was to find
a contemporary design which
would blend in with the predom-
inantly Gothic buildings of Ag-
nes Scott. This was the opin-
ion of John Portman, architect
of Dana Hall.

Mr. Portman solved this prob-
lem in several ways. For in-
stance, the concrete folded
plate roof conveys the spirit
of the other gabled roofs on
campus in a modern way.

Another example of the com-
bination of past and present is
the theater designed by James
Hull Miller. It features an

open stage extending into the
octagonal chamber which seats
212 people on the main floor.

Mr. Portman believes that
this theater incorporates the
new ideas in design with the in-
timate feeling of the Elizabeth-
ean theaters.

Although Mr. Portman feels
that Dana Hall is a functional
building which is adaptable to
growth, he also believes that it
is a "cathedral to art" which
will provide an inspirational at-
mosphere.

In fact he states, "Our basic
philosophy in design revolves
around taking a set of condi-

tions and evolving an individual
solution that is true to those
conditions in a natural and un-
inhibited way."

The Outside Agitator

By Grace Winn

IS INFLUX ENOUGH?

The influx onto the campus which the dedication and events
in Dana Fine Arts Building will involve should be refreshing.
Prospects of this excitement, this constant contact of Atlantans
with our campus and publicity about our college, created much of
the enthusiasm for the 1966-67 session. But in the midst of activi-
ty, there is something missing.

Is influx enough? Atlanta's cognizance of exactly where
we are located, what we have on campus, and, really, what is
happening on the campus intellectually and culturally is being
boosted this year. Perhaps this will encourage us as students
to get "in touch" with "the citv of a million plus."

No one knows how "out of touch" we are better than the stu-
dents. Somehow the "exciting cultural events in the big city"
which every student lists as a reason for choosing ASC are
sadly missing from the weekly calendar of most Scotties.

An occassional night on the town with a date or a fling around
the Ga. Tech campus doesn't assuage us. Neither do trips to
Rich's.

Lack of information is only part of the problem. The shocking-
pink, student-initiated "Gallery" that refreshed and informed us
last year has vanished. But newspapers, posters, and word-of-
mouth supply needed information for those interested.

Transportation difficulties head the list of problems. Proper
chaperonage vies for priority on the list too. Even for these"'
willing to pay cab fare, finding two companions can be impos-
sible er at best difficult. These are legitimate complaints
voiced by would-be-theatre and concert goers who know from
experience.

But let's face it, the crux of the "I never get into Atlanta"
blues is often lack of initiative on the individual's part, lack
of incentive to find out the whens and wheres far enough in ad-
vance. The thumb points back at us.

Perhaps this year can be a dual awakening of us to Atlanta
as well as vice-versa, but there is still a lot of sand in our shoes
right now.

Unique Opportunity

We're a lucky bunch. Not only do we have all the advantages
lectures, discussions that are found on the campus of an ex-
cellent college; but we also are in the superior, and somewhat
unique, position of being in the Atlanta area, where we may partake
f all such activities in the greater community outside the campus.

One of the greatest advantages, one of the most worthwhile
of these opportunities, is Intercollegiate. Here we have the
chance to confront, talk to, learn from and learn with other
college students in the Metropolitan area.

We will find that these students and the topics discussed cover
a broad range. They are both familiar and new. Intercolle-
giate is a readymade chance to learn and grow, a chance that
we as human beings, especially as students cannot afford to miss.

He was unable to accomplish
anything in his own hometown,
but he tried to alter the lives
of people in other parts of the
country.

He taught an unorthodox and
potentially revolutionary con-
ception of Law.

He did not work through the
Responsible Leadership of the
Community; his allies were ig-
norant people of low class.
Although he would not be in-

fluenced by them, he was quite
literally a fellow-traveller of
men plotting to overthrow the
government.

He lived closely with a class
of people that tradition and even
religion taught should be
avoided.

His course of action stirred
up hatred where there had been
calm. After a trial in which
the judge yielded to mob pres-
sure, he was executed for dis-
turbing the peace.

James Hull Miller

Approach To Design
Simple, Revolutionary

by Jane D 0 Mahon

James Hull Miller is a dy-
nam ic and exceedingly interest-
ing lecturer. His demonstra-
tions at the Friday night and
Saturday afternoon lectures
were vivid and enlightening.

Friday night he explained and
demonstrated the importance
and increased usefulness of the
open stage. Saturday afternoon
he demonstrated his scenic
principles of the open stage.

In an open stage such as the
one in the Dana Fine Arts Build-
ing, one has one room which is
actually large enough to be sev-
eral rooms. The decor goes
completely around. The Dana
Theatre also exhibits a screen
on which the backdrop may be
projected. This greatly simpli-
fies set designing.

Mr . Miller's whole approach
to stage and set design is sim-
ple, yet revolutionary. His aim
is to have a fluid scene progres-
sion. He accomplishes this aim
by using self-supporting scen-
ery which he calls "sculpture
in space."

Mr. Miller's ideas are not
necessarily new, for the open
stage dates to 1660. However,
his views are not those of all
theatrical people at the present
time.

Mr. Miller's approach to set

design is economic as well as
simple. He demonstrated the
use of a stencil cut from wrap-
ping paper projected on the
screen as a backdrop, and his
most often used fabrics in set
designing are burlap and denim.

Mr. Miller is very obviously
an honest man. He stated quite
plainly that he believed that
the theatre in the Dana Fine
Arts Building was the only one
which would have suited the
building.

His lectures and demonstra-
tions were more than convinc-
ing, and he has left, in the form
of the Dana Fine Arts Building,
a useful and long awaited testi-
monial to his artistic genius.

"MOCKINGS"
FROM
RAMONA

Dear Mom,

Well, it seems that I over-
estimated the knowledge glean-
ed in Miss Schulenski's senior
English class at Bug Hill High.
I made the traditional C- on my
first English paper, and that was
marked down to a D for late-
ness. I went for my conference
and wasn't really nervous until
he called me "Miss Cart-
wright."

He asked if I had ever con-
sidered majoring in English.
When I said no, he heaved a
great sigh of relief and con-
tinued the conversation. He
thought my paper was basically
good. The problems came with
my grammar, style of writing,
and the idea. He craves my pen-
manship, however.

I made a C on my first che-
mistry test. I guess that's not
my best subject either, but I'm
really excited about Bible. I
got a check on my map. I won't
even mention physics. I seem
to be doing best in math, main-
ly because we haven't had a test.

After Convocation last week,
though, I'm inspired to buckle
down and study. I'm glad the
seniors won the trophy, but from
what I understand, the juniors
deserve something for being
Most Improved.

Convocation this week was
even more exciting. We dedica-
ted the new Dana Fine Arts
Building and it is absolutely
spectacular. I especially like the
spiral staircase and the theatre.
The whole thing seems so well-
planned for its function. Black-
friars have much better facili-
ties than the Bug Hill Players.

Last weekend my orientation
group went downtown. My know-
it-all Junior Sponsor took the
wrong bus. After a stimulating
tour of Hapeville, we finally
made it to Rich's. After wander-
ing about for six hours, I at last
decided on a pair of knee socks.
They'll have to go back, though;
they don't fit. The old group is
having fun anyway.

My Rho Rho Rho friend was
busy with rush last week and I
didn't hear from him. Jerome
finally got through, however,
so we went to the fair. We
doubled with my Junior Spon-
sor. Her date brought along his
younger brother and two youn-
ger sisters. There we were.
Just the seven of us.

I was looking forward to a
romantic time on the Wild
Mouse, but in the shuffle I ended
up with the two little sisters. I
was looking forward to the Roll-
er Coaster, too, but after wait-
ing in line for an hour, we got
a good look at it and decided
to look at the hogs instead.

We had to wait for the younger
kids to ride the Merry-Go-
Round, which I was secretly
craving all the while. Jerome
is wonderful. After spending
only $7.75 he finally won me a
prize. A lovely pi nwheel. Unfor-
tunately, the kid brother sat on
it in the car.

He also helped me get cotton
candy, lavander variety, all
over my new green outfit. (Oh,
I forgot to mention that trip
to Casual Corner, didn't I?) I
got home exhausted, filthy, and
with shoes full of sawdust, but
all in all, it was a gala affair.

We had a great chapel pro-
gram on Christian Association
service projects and I've sign-
ed up to be involved with Girl
Scouts.

Give Dad and Bobby each a
kiss for me, and tell Butch I
don't want to hear about his do-
ing that ever again. I miss you
all.

Love,

Ramona

"Pawnbroker" A Must
At Peachtree Art

by Sonja Nelson

NYU Takes Watson
To Madrid For Study

Senior Maida Watson has
a great deal to share from her
junior year abroad which under
the plan of New York Univer-
sity, she spent at the Univer-
sity of Madrid, She studied
there in the Spanish equivalent
to the liberal arts college.

Q. What courses did she
take?

A. Spanish literary history.
Latin American history, Latin
American economics, and my
favorite course, called "Art
of the Prado." The Prado is
a museum of paintings in Mad-
rid, one of the three best mus-
eums in the world.

It house s not only a large
collection of Spanish art, but
rooms and rooms of Goyas
and many 16th and 17th cen-
tury Flemish and Venitian
masterpieces. It's the most
fantastic course I've ever had.

Q. What were Spanish girls
at the University like?

A. "The girls are very polite,
very well brought up and ex-
tremely feminine. To class
they wear wool suits and

sweaters and heels; they dress
very beautifully.

Q. And the boys?

A. Boys wore suits to class
also. Boys are so formal
I'd even see them wear suits
on picnics. They care so much
about clothes. Some won't eat
well so they can dress well,
like Don Quixote who dressed
better than he ate.

Q. How expensive is the
University?

A. Very inexpensive, but
it was more for those of us
on the junior year plan. For
us tuition, was $700 a year,
and living expenses-room and
board-were $100 a month.

Q. What was a major differ-
ence in the University and
classes here?

A. The impersonal atmos-
pherethe professors are
very impersonal at the Univer-
sity.

Q. Did you have an apart-
ment?

A. First I moved in with
a couple that thought they were
my parents. It was terrible.
Then I moved in with a 39
year old woman who wanted to
get married desperately and
finally joined a lonely hearts
club. Finally I found a widow
from a very good family who
had a large boarding house
in a darling old section of Mad-
rid. It was lots of fun.

The apartment was on the
same street as the house of
Lope de Vega, the Spanish
equivalent of Shakespeare. The
street was named Cervantes,
after the father of the Spanish
language, and it was near the
large Cervantes library.

Q. What was the main value
of your year at Madrid?

A. * Self knowledge; the in-
ternal aspect was of the most
value, living completely on your
own, and seeing a different atti-
tude toward life. They are so
obsessed by what people will
say.

MAIDA WATSON TAKES UP life at Agues Scott once again
after a year's absence with a typical Scottie pasttime: signing
out.

Fine Arts Committee
Steers Year's Emphasis

The Fine Arts Committee was
formed last spring by Dr. Als-
ton. Those appointed to the com-
mittee were: Miss Winter,
Chairman, Miss Boney, Mrs.
C alder, Ann Worthy Johnson,
Dean Kline, Mr. McDowell, Mr.
McNair, Miss Scandrett, ,Mr.
Warren and Carrington Wilson.

Dr. Alston formed this group
for the purpose of arranging for
an emphasis upon the Fine Arts
throughout the year. They also
want call attention to the Fine
Arts as a vital part of our Li-
beral Arts program.

Ail student organizations
were invited to send represen-
tatives to the meeting of the
newly formed Fine Arts Com-
mittee.

The Committee is now invol-
ved with its first event - the
James Hull Miller Workshop.
Those serving on the Workshop
Committee are: Alice Airth, and

Throckmortimer

Blackfriars Mr. Clark, Bunny
Foster and Arts Council, Mrs.
Fox, Miss Green, Joan Gunter,
Cappy Page, Debbie Potts and
Ourania Gounares.

Miss Winter states that "We
are now in the middle of the
first event. As soon as that is
over, we will activate the com-
mittee."

Miss Winter sees the future
purpose of the Fine Arts Com-
mittee as that of promoting
and emphasizing the Lecture
Series. She says that it is rich in
Fine Arts opportunities ana
feels that the Committee need
not bring additional speakers,
etc., to the campus.

Don't let ignorance be the

cause of your next argument.

It's fall again and Atlanta-a-

of the city's growing cultural
complex. . . .

For anyone who can break
away from the f rat-football cir-
cle for a few hours, there is a
movie must at the Peachtree
Art. The Pawnbroker , winner
of the Berlin Film Festival,
presents a series of vignettes
of the human beings whom cir-
cumstances have brought into
the pawnshop.

It is a strikingly realistic vis-
ual experience, given poignant
depth by thoughtful writing and
direction and skillful under-
playing by the "non-actor"
actors.

Coming events at the muni-
cipal auditorium; Nikolai Pet-
rov on October 21 and Marcel
Marceau the following night.

Jazz fans will be glad to know
that La Carousel on Hunter
Street is now featuring jazz-

Reservations are needed.

And not just to show for cer-
tain that Hollywood and the
Communists haven't taken over
the whole world, Georgia's edu-
cational network comes bat-
tling back with a stellar series
for the armchair theater-goer.

WGTV (Channel 8) began its
series with the first two acts
of JULIUS CAESAR. The last
half of the play is to be tele-
vised on Wednesday night and
will be followed by other Shake-
speare plays including ANTONY

and CORIOLANUS.

In January the network will
air DAVID AND LISA winner
of the San Francisco and Venice
film festivals. Other offerings
include; Shaw's DON JUAN IN
HELL, Saroyan's BEAUTIFUL
PEOPLE, and Sean O'Casey's
BEDTIME STORY.

But most of all, Scotties,
don't miss the goings-on in your
own back yard now reverently
known as the Charles A. Dana
Fine Arts Building. The open-
ing and dedication of the arts
complex will attract many area
and national dignitaries.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Returning Senior Clarifies
Junior Year Abroad Values

IT'S A SCHOOL WITHIN a school when the children of student
Mrs. Bryan Redd come to the Agnes Scott student lounge. Here
studying, from left to right, are Laura and Ellen (twins) and
Barbara Redd. These three industrious girls are part of the
Redd's crew of five children.

PAT ANSWERS
DEPARTMENT

by Poppy Wilson

The main spokesman for the
academic value of a year abroad
should be the "fresh-off-the-
boat rising senior." However,
there is a temptation when said
senior returns to the college
campus to feel thatwhat is most
interesting to fellow students
are the events which have made
this year unique and fun.

With such a wealth of travel
annccdotes and living experi-
ences, she can talk for hours
without mentioning her acade-
mic work, which she assumes
would not interest her aud-
ience. Since Agnes Scott is so
academically oriented she may
feel that her contribution should
be on the side of "cosmopol-
itan light" or "new perspec-
tives."

This is a serious mistake on
her part. The wealth of her
academic experience should be
presented in its proper role. It
cannot be overemphasized. The
trite "Madeline goes to Paris"
image of the year abroad is
as untrue as it is petty.

The question posed in last
week's editorial "Academic
Holiday?" is one which de-
serves serious consideration,
both by those who have partic-
ipated in a year abroad program
and by those who will consider
doing so in the future.

As one who spent the past
academic year in France, I
would like to clarify my own
feelings as to the value of a
year away from the Agnes Scott
curriculum.

FLUENCY

First of all, there is a cer-
tain competence gained in the
language itself. For a language
major this is invaluable. No
matter how good an American
college department may be, it
can provide neither the exam-
ple nor the constant practice
needed for fluency in a foreign
language.

Fluency is not an end unto it-
self, but a means for rising
above picky word-for-word
translation to a true apprecia-
tion of foreign literature. The
field of poetry is an excellent
example of the need for greater
comprehension and improved
oronunciation.

CLASSES

Secondly, there are the speci-
fic academic courses. Here I
agree with the author of last
week's article that they should
be geared to fit the overall plan
of education which the student
wishes to follow.

The foreign university has a
lot to offer the American stu-
dent if he has the maturity and
the guidance to accept it. Best
results do occur when the stu-
dent is advised by a professor
oriented towards the American
system.

The French student works to-
wards one oral exam at the end
oi the year. Nothing is required
of him until June. His Ameri-
can counterpart, however, must
be constantly reminded that he
is in school or he will not work.
Or, worse still, his home col-
lege, seeing the steady flow of
grades cut off, will begin to
wonder if he is having a "full-
blooded academic year."

The courses I took last year
were excellent; they were taught
by French professors and gear-
ed to the American program
through papers and semester
exams.

However, it is hard to believe
that an art course in which two
of the three class hours are
spent in the Louvre, a drama
course supplemented by the
Paris theater season, a twen-
tieth century novel course con-
centrating on the most modern
of French writers, and a polit-
ical science course taught by
men personally involved in cur-
rent French politics can consti-
tute a serious academic pro-
gram.

Especially when one looks ob-
jectively at the number of hours
spent in class and the fact that
a total of two papers and two
tests were required in each
subject all year.

This brings me to my third
point which, I feel, is the heart
of the question. Much of the dis-
trust of the year abroad pro-
gram stems from the fact that
so very much depends on the
individual student. Hecanlearn
more during this year than in
any other period of his life. Or
he can have a lovely all-ex-
penses-paid holiday.

One of the rules of educa-
tion, as soon as it ceases to be
compulsory, is that the student
will gain from it only as much
as he is willing to invest.

While this is ideally true at
the American college or uni-
versity, there is a definite as-
surance that the student, urged
on by constant tests, papers and
oral check-ups, will be shamed
or inspired into a sizeable in-

Senior Urges
Concern About
Viet Crisis

Dear Editor,

In a recent discussion at the
Quaker House in Atlanta, I was
presented a petition supporting
a certain view toward the Viet-
namese conflict.

The stance, in short, is the
ithdrawal of American troops
and bombings in Vietnam, the
negotiation of a ceasefire, and
the conducting of free elections
under UN supervision.

Although I am not entirely
sympathetic with this point of
view, I definitely feel that it is
worth the attention of Agnes
Scott students and faculty. With
this in mind, I took the respon-
sibility of posting the petition
with a short explanatory note in
the Agnes Scott mailroom.

I would like to encourage
people to study this point of
view, and remind them of the
demonstration - picket in sup-
port of ending the war in Viet-
nam that will be conducted this
Saturday afternoon (October 16)
at the Atlanta Post Office. I
can give information to those
interested in participating in
this demonstration.

But all of us should be in-
terested enough in this Viet-
namese problem to secure the
free literature that will be dis-
tributed by the demonstrators.
Such information would be well
worth a trip to Atlanta on Sa-
turday afternoon.

vestment in academic excel-
lence.

In foreign university, there is
no such assurance. The stu-
dent, freed from a large amount
of academic pressure, mustde-
cide for himself how much he
wishes to invest.

FREEDOM

This is a test of his concern
as a scholar as well as a test of
those who have or have not
taught him to love scholarship.
To use an old expression, "the
true measure of a man (or a
scholar) is what he does when
no one is looking."

If the student abroad passes
this test he will find himself a
sterner taskmaster than any
professor and will return with
a sharper interest in his work,
tempered by a sense of perspec-
tive vital to future study. If he
fails, perhaps it was a mistake
to send him.

In essence, I agree with the
author of "Academic Holi-
day?". The pros and cons of
an academic year abroad must
be weighed carefully by each in-
terested student.

Yet, I believe that it is the
aims and purposes of the in-
dividual himself which are of
primary importance, not the
"strong, steady light of acade-
mic excellence" generated by
Agnes Scott, however fine that
light may be.

Part of that quality of excel-
lence comes from the impor-
tance placed on individual acad-
emic freedom. In considering a
year abroad, the student must
decide for himself what value
and purpose he places on his
education, and act accordingly.

Bunny Story
In Poor Taste,
Amateurish

Dear Editor:

The article in last week's
paper concerning the summer
employment of one of our fel-
low students has caused quite
a bit of comment. I would like
to speak out from one point
of view. I feel that the article
was in poor taste and certainly
not up to the usual standard of
content of this paper. What stu-
dents do with their summers as
far as employment and all other
activities are concerned is left
to the discretion of the indivi-
dual, but those jobs that are
written up in the newspaper for
all to read should be chosen with
more care than was obviously
put into last week's selection.
This article exhibited an ama-
teurish quality that has never
before been found in the paper
under the present staff. The
writing of a sensational story
merely for the effect, if this was
the motivation, is not becoming
a paper of this caliber.

Why have none of the more-
constructive summer jobs been
written up? Students worked
with Operation Headstart and
other phases of the War on Po-
verty, as well as other interest-
ing jobs, but these jobs, which
would have been more enligh-
tening reading material, have
been neglected. In the future,
articles of only passing in-
terest could be left out and more
pertinent matters dealt with.

could the students be seen to
do? A. Devour every word that
issued from the professor's
mouth.

Q. Efciring the classroom in-

students? A. Apathy, horrified
outrage, or derision.

Q. What did the quizzical,
contemplative expressions on
the faces of the students clear-
ly show? A. The absorption with
which their minds engaged
every thought that the professor
suggested.

Q. What did the professor's
subtle use of facial expression
and vocal tone effect? A. The

MSU Offers
Language

Program

An overseas language pro-
gram for college students
throughout the United States is
being offered by Michigan State
University for the school year
1965-1966.

Paris, France; Lausanne and
Neuchatel, Switzerland; Co-
logne, Germany; Florence,
Italy; and Barcelona and Ma-
drid, Spain will be the European
Centers of the program during
the autumn, winter and spring
quarters. MSU programs are
under the auspices of the
American Language and Edu-
cational Center (AMLEC).

According to Keith B. Odle,
AMLEC director, the MSU study
courses "enable American Col-
lege students with limitedfinan-
cial means to become fluent
in French, German, Italian and
Spanish, while immersed in the
cultural and intellectual life of
Europe."

"Language instruction will
include composition, grammar,
reading and conversation at be-
ginning, intermediate and
advanced levels," he added.

A major part of the program
is the extra-curricular oppor-
tunities available to students.
Frequent guided trips to points
of interest, hiking and skiing
weekends, opera and other ac-
tivities are arranged by the
European staff.

Odle points out the modest;
cost for AMLEC programs; he
reports that fees run between
$700 and $900, including air
fare from New York to Luxem-
bourg and return enrollment
fee, tuition, books and room
and board.

Students will room in select-
ed private homes in all but the
Paris program which increases
opportunity for language prac-
tice and social contacts.

Further information and ap-
plication forms can be obtained

FrankVs Theory Gives Life Meaning

(Editor's Note: The following is adapted and edited by Ann
Roberts from an article in The National Observor by Dr.
Viktor Frankl, creator of the principleof logotheraphy.)

The question of the meaning of life is an intrinsically human
(question. It is the truest expression of the state of being human,
the mark of the most human nature in man. More than such
faculties as power of speech, conceptural thinking, or walking-
erect, this factor of doubting the significance of his own existence
is what sets man apart from animal.

Dr. Frankl wants to teach his patients what Albert Schweitzer
called reverence for life. But his patients can only be per-
suaded that life has- unconditional value if he can manage to
give them some content for their lives, if he can find them an
aim and a purpose in their existence.
Having a task, a mission, makes the person irreplaceable

and gives his life the value of uniqueness. In view of the task

quality of life, it logically follows that life becomes all the

more meaningful, the more difficult it gets.

Dr. Frankl's aim is to help the patient to achieve the highest

possible activation of his life. He must show him that the task

he is responsible for is a specific task.

It is specific in a twin sense: One, that the task varies from

person to person in accordance with the uniqueness of each

person. Two, that it changes from hour to hour, in accord

with the singularity of each situation.

Existential analysis and logotherapy aim at bringing the patient
to the point of highest possible concentration and dedication.
It is business, then, to show how the life of every man has a
unique goal to which only one single course leads.

The factors of uniqueness and singularity are essential con-
stituents of the meaningfulness of hum an existence. To contempo-
rary existentialist philosophy goes the honor of having shown
that the existence of man is essentially concrete and subjective.
It took the existentialist stress on these qualities to restore
moral responsiblity to the modern scene.

Not for nothing has existentialist philosophy been termed
the "summoning" philosophy. For the presentation of human
life as singular and unique is an implicit summons to men
to actualize in their own lives these unique and singular possi-
bilities.

But if the patient should object that he does know the meaning

of his life, that the unique potentialities of his existence are
not apparent to him, then we can only reph that his primary
task is just this: To find his wn\ to his own proper task, to
advance toward the uniqueness and singularity of his own meaning
in life.

As for this matter of each man's inner potentialities-in
other words, how a man is to go about learning what he ought
to be from what he is-there is not better answer than that given
h) Goethe: "How can we learn to know ourselves? Never
by reflection, but by action. Try to do your duty and you will
soon find out what>'ou are. But what is your duty? The demands
of each day."

Now , there will be people who recognize the unique-task
quality of life, and who wish to actualize its concrete, singular
situational values, but who still consider their personal situation
"hopeless," We must ask ourselves first of all: -What does
hopeless mean? After all, man cannot predict his future.

Because man cannot prophesy, he can never properly judge
whether his future will contain possibilities for the realization
of values. But no man is justified in insisting upon his own
inadequacies that is, in demeaning his own potentialities.

No matter how discontented witli himself a person may be,
no matter how sternly he sits in judgement upon himself the
very fact that he is doing so proves that he is not so poor a
creature as he thinks he is. The man who judges himself
harshly has caught sight of a value and is taking part in the
world of values.

The task a man has to accomplish in life is at bottom always
present and in principle always within man's power. Existen-
tial analysis accordingly is designed to help the individual
comprehend his responsibility to accomplish each of this tasks.

The more he grasps the task quality of life, the more meaning-
ful will his life appear to him. While the man who is not conscious
of his responsiblity simply takes life as a given fact, existential
analysis teaches people to see life as an assignment.
The question of that assignment makes sense to a person only
if he asks it in reference to a concrete situation and to his con-
crete personality. It would be ethically erroneous and psychologi-
cally morbid for him to take it into his head to perform an act
of "supreme" value, instead of modestly "attempting" to do
his best.

That he must aim at the best is imperative; otherwise his
efforts would come to nought. But at the same time he must
be able to content himself with nothing more than approaching
nearer and nearer, without ever quite attaining his goal.

These remarks on the question of the meaning of life come
down to a radical criticism of the question as such. It is life
itself that asks questions of min u It is not up to man to ques-
tion; rather, he should recognize that he is questioned, ques-
tioned by life; he has to respond by being responsible; and he
can answer to life only by answering for his life.

Christian Association

Service Projects Provide
Chance To Help Others

Girl Scout leaders, tutors
and cheerful companions. ..each
Agnes Scott student has the op-
portunity to fulfill one of these
roles through working with the
Christian Association Service
Projects headed by junior Ka-
they Stubbs.

For many years Scott stu-
dents have found these projects
a good way to become active
in the Atlanta community, to get
experience working with people
of all ages and frcm different
backgrounds, and to get out
and do some good (and get
their minds off studying).

Interest sheets for these pro-
jects were delivered through
the local mail Tuesday. Train-
ing will begin this week with
leaders from many of the places
involved coming out to talk
with the students. The pro-
jects include the Fulton County
Juvenile Home, the Methodist
Childrens' Home, the Mary Eli-
zabeth Rest Home, the Scottish
Rite Hospital, Sheltering Arms
Nursery, Tutorial and Girl
Scouts.

Tutorial, headed by Carol Ro-
bertson, offers the student a

chance to work with one indivi-
dual child once a week all year.
The tutor may choose the day

of the week that she is able
to go. Many students feel that
they are not experienced to tu-
tor, but there is training avail-
able so there is no need to
worry.

Another project which allows
the student to work with an
individual is that at the Me-
thodist Children's Home. Here
thodist Children's Home.
Here, headed by Carol Scott,
is a weekly program such as
that at tutorial. Besides the
weekly program the Children's
Home is in need soon of some-
one to work with music at the
home and maybe organize a
choir.

There Is also a need for a
den mother for Cub Scouts. This
would take approximately one
and a half hours a week. Other
possibilites include working in
the field of athletics, dramatics,
or home economics. In the
latter there is the chance of
creativity in teaching a class
in cooking or sewing.

Barbara Dowd is the chair-
man of the Girl Scout project.
Girl Scout leaders are need-
ed for underprivileged areas
and there is also a need for
assistants in troups in the De-
catur area. The Girl Scout
office also wants some girls
to help maybe in writing some
publicity material of skits and
some others who can do some
art work.

Sheltering Arms is a day
nursery where children go after
school. It is for the children
from underprivileged areas
whose parents work in the day-
time. This proiect. headed by
Betty Ann Boyd, involves going
to the nursery and playing with
the children. It may later de-
velop into a kind of tutorial
project, too.

The Scottish Rite Hospital
is a children's hospital deal-
ing specificallv with orthonerlir
problems (congenital birth de-
fects.) Girls working here go
once a week on Saturdays for
about an hour and cheer up the
patients. This is the hospital
that is benefited by theThanks-

Motley Crew Flocks
To Bob Dylan Concert

It was worth the price of my
ticket to see the audience
a true cross-section of Ameri-
can youth, filling about 65% of
the auditorium. There was one
pink chiffon cocktail dress, se-
veral Courreges, and as many
collegiate "uniforms" as wheat
jeans and T-shirts or wind-
breakers. I almost felt over-
dressed without hair to my
j>vaist.

*) But the people were only the
sideshow. At last the lights
dimmed and onto the stage
strode an emaciated, almost
effeminate, unim posing, bushy-
haired little man clad, surpris-
ingly, in a Mod suit with short
jacket and tight high-water
pants and fence-climber boots.

Just like Santa, "He spoke not
a word, but went straight to
his work." The wails he forced
from his throat were not dras-
tically distinguishable from
those he forced from his har-
monica. But this was what
everyone had come to see. This
was Bob Dylan.

The first half of his show
consisted of seven songs, all of
the tunes remarkably alike,
dealing with.... Well, who knows
just what they are about? As
remarked a friend of mine,
upon hearing another group per-
form a Dylan song, "It sounds
great. I just wish I knew
what it meant."

Long before I became ac-
quainted with Bob Dylan him-
self, I was familiar with the
character of his songs. I have
always thought of him as amis-
fit who has a place.. As it is
now the duty of the Republican
Parry to criticize the Adminis-
tration, so it is his right and
privilege to attack the status
quo, however extremely.

But it is hard to believe that
anyone can be that bitter, to
say nothing of so esoteric. He
was convincing. By intermis-
sion I was ready to believe

by Ann Roberts

that here was a tortured soul,
an honest man fiercely rebel-
ling against the destructive
evils of our decadent, hope-
less society.

However, he managed to kill
that impression in me and in a
large portion of the rest of the
audience. After the half, he
rallied back strong, supported
by a average Madison-Avenue
looking band, and surged ahead
with his electric guitar
and teen-age rock and roll beat
for which he was justly booed
at the Newport Folk Festival.
Never a true folk singer, he
is now far from even the folk
tradition.

My final opinions were two:
1) He is no showman. He main-
tains that he does not try to
sing well because he is not
happy over his subject. This
may be valid, but one can lis-
ten only so long to a voice
obviously under strain.

Futhermore, probably to
avoid convention, he made only
three comments during the per-
formance. This left those of us
who have not memorized his
albums in complete ignorances
as to title and background. And
his encore consisted of a return
walk across the stage.

2) He is something of a
hypocrite. "No man can serve
two masters" folk and rock
and roll. He has changed his
allegiance to the Beatle style
apparently because now "it's
what's happening, baby."

I find it hard to accept that
anyone who believes to strongly
in total divorce from and re-
bellion against our United States
1965 society as Dylan would
have had us believe during the
first half of the evening can so
effortlessly leap the wall during
intermission, making such an
obvious concession to and en-
trance into that society.

Judy King and Linda Bloodworth
are in charge of this project
for Agnes Scott.

Janet Hunter is in charge of
the girls who go to the Mary
Elizabeth Rest Home. The girls
go once a week to visit and
talk to the residents. Because

this home is close to the school,
girls are invited to go at any
time and visit.

The project at the Juvenile
Home is open only to juniors
and seniors. The girls at the
home are from poor back-
grounds and some of them have
committed minor crimes. The
Agnes Scott girls go to the home
on Tuesday afternoon to pro-
vide recreational activities and
maybe some classes in cooking
and sewing. This is the bright
spot in the week for the girls
at the Juvenile Home.

There is something in these
projects that everyone can do.
Please fill out interest forms
and return them soon. If there
are any questions, talk to Kathey
Stubbs or to the chairman of
the project in which you are

Alum-Frosh
Sponsor Plan

Gets Underway

Freshmen will meet their
alumnae spons ors in the lobbies
of their dormitories; during
the chapel, October 25. Each
alumnae will have two fresh-
men usually roomates.

This program is sponsored
by the Alumnae Association, as
explained to the freshmen at
their class meeting, October 11,
by Ann Worthy Johnson, Direc-
tor of Alumnae Affairs.

Atlanta and Decatur alumnae
are contacted by the Alumnae
Office, and if they volunteer
alumnae sponsors, they (are as-
signed two or three frfeshmen
to be their sponsoreejs. The
purpose of the program is to
give the freshmen a friendly
hcroae atmosphere in the Atlanta
area.

The program is now in its
third year, and the Alumnae As-
sociation feels that it has been
very successful. It is seen
by both alumnae and partici-
pating students as a reward-
ing experience.

Sources Say Black Cat
Is Full Of Surprises

'This year's Black Cat is go-
ing to be full of surprises."
Other than that, Kat Mitchell,
spirit co-ordinator of A. A., is
being pretty non-committal
about the festivities of Black
Cat which lead up to the high-
light of the day, the Black Cat
presentation.

Surprisingly enough, Mary
Barnett, Black Cat chairman,
had almost the same thing to
say about the presentation.
"For the first time ever, this
year's skit will have males in
it." Not being one to do things
half way, Mary has put not one,
but two, men in the skit.

Official Black Cat activities
will start on Thursday night
with a bonfire. Cheerleaders
and classes will present their
special cheers.

Thursday night and Friday
morning will hold their usual
goings on while freshmen try
(in vain, if sophs succeed)* to
surprise everyone with their
new mascot.

At the hockey games, which
start at 4, several unprecedent-
ed events will take place. For
a start, cheerleaders will lead
their classes into the field to
the tune of spirit songs.

Weather permitting, a picnic
supper will be served after the
games are over at 6. Whether
it will be eaten is another story
(not because of the quality of
the food). One tradition sure
to be followed is the continual
singing of spirit songs during
the meal.

After supper, classes head
for Gaines where class song
competition and the presenta-
tion of the Black Cat to fresh-
men take place.

The zenith of the day is the

8:15 p.m. All literary weapons
have been blunted and the skit
plays up the fun side of Scott.
Mary Barnett has words of com-
fort for freshmen: 'This
year's script committee has
made a special effort to reach
freshmen.

Mary is at this point en-
couraged by what she's seen.
"When we first started prac-
ticing, I confess that I felt like
resigning, but every time I go
the skit looks better." She is
especially proud of the cats and
cast for their acting. In a way
the skit is a Hitchcock produc-
tion because each person of the
script committee has one line
in the skit.

Organizers for the skit are

BOZ Holding
Tryouts For
Scott Writers

BOZ is currently holding try-
outs for new members.

What is BOZ? BOZ is the
campus writing club organized
to promote creative writing at
Agnes Scott,

At informal meetings mem-
bers have a chance to read
and discuss their original
works.

The club is sponsored by Miss
Janef Newman Preston of the
English Department.

A tryout for membership in
BOZ may be an original short
story, an essay, a one-act play,
or a poem.

The deadline for these try-
outs is Monday, October 25.

Send your original work to
Box 160. All work will be re-
turned.

Mrs. Marybeth Weston

sor emeritus of English/ Miss
Louise McKinney, who was an
essential part of the college
community for many years.

It was the desire of Miss Mc-
Kinney that the rules of the com-
petition be kept as simple as
possible, and Miss Janef Pres-
ton and the award committee
followed this wish.

A collection must contain at
least fifteen books; these may
be inexpensive and second-hand
books but must be a suitable
foundation for a permanent li-
brary. Gifts may be included
in the collection. All books,
however, are expected to re-
flect the owner's field or fields
of special interest.

The names of all contestants
must be turned in to a member
of the English Department by the
end of this quarter. The collec-
tions will be judged and the
owners informally Interviewed
in May. The winner will be an-
nounced in Convocation.

It is expected that the Award
will be used for intellectual or
cultural enrichment: the pur-
chase of books, pictures., re-
cords, or concert or theatre
tickets.

Alumnae
Exec. Board
Meets Oct. 25

Monday, October 25, the Exe-
cutive Board of the Alumnae
Association will hold its fall
meeting. Mrs. Marybeth Little
Weston, the Executive Board
President, will be presiding.
Mrs. Weston's home is New
York City where she is the pro-
duction manager of House and
Garden magazine.

The Executive Board has fall,
winter, and spring meeting. At
the spring meeting officers
and committee chairmen are
elected.

The Board is the policymak-
ing group of the Alumnae As-
sociation. Its officers and com-
mittee chairmen not only make
policies but carry them out as
well.

The Board will begin its
meeting at 11:30 a.m. October
25, and will break for lunch at
12:30 a.m.

MOCKINGS" FROM RAMON A

ON TELEPHONES

Student Government is now working on the project of allowing
students to have private phones in their rooms. This seems to
us a rather drastic way of attacking the problem of communica-
tion.

For those girls getting a phone, there is the process of getting
legal financial backing from their parents. Then, merely pay-
ing the bill is a headache. It is not easy to collect money from se-
veral different sources. The benefits may be stronger than the
drawbacks for those who find themselves in desperate need of
phone, however.

Therefore, consider the consequences to the neighbors, those
who have no say in whether another has a phone installed. We can
picture the situation as nothing less than chaotic, with phones ring-
ing all over constantly, unintentionally loud conversations late at
night.

There are few people left who study in their rooms and a few
more who try to sleep in them. Even if one should pay extra and
get a phone that plugs into a jack, the company requires that a
permanent bell be installed.

We suggest an alternative solution: the immediate and sweep-
ing re-working of the college switchboard, involving, at the least,
a doubling of the number of phones on each hall, as well as an
increase in personnel.

The deal would be to make all campus phones the sort where one
can simply dial 9 for outside. This in itself would clear up much of
the present switchboard confusion. If students can be trusted to
have private phones, surely they can be trusted not to abuse those
of the college.

We feel that the current proposal is not the shortest distance
between two points. We are taking the long way around the heart of
the problem.

Job Corps Valuable

However, the disenchantment
that caused some of the eight
to drop out is seen also in
some of those who are still
with the Corps. This stems
often from the expectation of
immediate entrance to vo-
cational training.

But just as the Job Corps
participant must be patient to
get full results from the pro-
gram, the public needs also to
be patient in its judgment of
the program.

We should not expect too
much too soon. We can not
expect low-rent people to be
changed overnight. If the Job
Corps can give these young men
a purpose in life, it is a good
thing.

One Job Corps drop-out, when
asked what he was now doing,
replied, "Same as before-just
setting around. No jobs-nothing
to do."

This is the feeling the Job
Corps is trying to erase in
the young men who enter the
program. There is a chance-
that they will succeed-if we
also give them the chance they
need.

After operating for five
months, the Job Corps has pu-
blished a report evaluating its
first 30 trainees. These trai-
nees were young men who
had experienced some kind of
social or economic deprivation.

Some of these were school
drop-outs. Others had been
thrown out. Often they also
had medical or emotional pro-
blems which had to be solved
before they could begin learn-
ing.

The Job Corps wanted to
help these young men by edu-
cation and vocational training.

A few are planning to finish
high school or enter college;
some have enlisted in one of the
military services; and some,
after completing basic edu-
cational courses, will be trans-
ferred to Urban Centers to ob-
tain training in fields ranging
from cooking to medical tech-
nology.

Of the original 30 men eight
dropped out nr were released
because of disciplinary pro-
blems. When interviewed, most
of them stated a desire to re-
turn.

Dear Mom,

According to my Junior Spon-
sor, I had a typical Agnes
Scott weekend. Friday night
I had a date with The Man From
U.N.C.L f E T I simply crave
Ulya. Saturday I devoted my-
self to less secular, more aca-
demic matters. To wit, my
Bible paper. Although it wasn't
on the suggested list, I found it
fascinating to write on whether
there is any truth in the mo-
dern theory that there were
three of each kind of animals in
the Ark. Then I went to Sun-
day School the next day and the
topic of the lesson was "Is
there any truth in the modern
theory..."

Speaking of academics, irony
of ironies, my faculty advisor

turned out to be my English
professor. He was as thrilled
as I. My conference consisted
of my description of my study
habits. He likes the general
plan that I study at all. He
did suggest, however, that I
switch the 7 to 10 period each
night from break to study time.

You asked why I didn't men-
tion Cassandra last week. Ac-
tually I was pouting because she
made an A on her English
paper. Although there has been
some roommate trouble on our
hall, we're still holding out.
The other day we even went
somewhere together break-
fast.

I'm sorry you, Daddy, Bobby,
Butch, Aunt Helen, Uncle Irving,
Aunt Victoria, and Mrs. O'-

College Bowl Tryouts
Set For Next Friday

by Susan Thomas
College Bowl Manager

If you were one of the voices
shouting out answers in the
College Bowl Chapel, you are
invited to try out for a position
on Scott's team.

Contrary to all rumors,
Freshmen are especially en-
couraged to do so. Try-outs

are painless, even fun (and
you must admit that you have
always had a suppressed desire
to push a buzzer).

criteria for a good contestant.
The best candidate is a person
who likes collecting facts, the
kind of student who can't re-
sist thumbing through maga-
zines or testing herself on Sa-
turday Review's "Literary
I.Q.."

College Bowl is a game based
on quick recall and a flexible
mind. It has a tempo all its
own.

The girl who is selected to
fill the vacancy on the squad
will find that our schedule is
really not as rigorous as one
might think.

The team meets once a week
to work with the buzzer boards
and then journeys to WSB to
watch present teams compete.
Part of the squad supplies ques-
tions for each work session and
the remainder of our time is
spent in analysis of the week's
effort.

We usually close the meetings
with short questions merely to
quicken reflexes.

If being a Scott Scholar ap-
peals to you, sign up on the
list in the mall room. Try-outs
will be held on Friday, Oct. 29,
in the Rep Council Room.

The College Bowl trip is an
exciting opportunity take ad-

vanfperp of If!

Leary won't be able to make
Black Cat. I'm really excited.
Hockey practice has been going
reasonably well. They haven't
assigned me an actual place
yet, but at least they know I'm
there. Alice Davidson asked me
to stop overstepping.

Our class spirit is zooming.
The song practices are going
well. They did have trouble
finding me a part that didn't
involve a tune. I've heard that
the juniors are all out to win
again, though.

I'm working on the costume
committee; I've been up late for
three nights now and I feel a
little ragged.

Oh, I almost forgot one of
the really fun things. I feel
so much more a part of the
campus after the Hub party
last week. After beating my
way through the masses, I
bought 15 doughnuts, 9 of which
I dropped on the floor im-
mediately after.

I was getting into the swing
of things, as I climbed up on
to the mantle piece to sing the
old Hub songs. Just as I was
rising with the stirring music
of that awe-inspiring ballad that
I've always admired, 'Teen
Angel," Ann Roberts spilled her
Fanta grape all over me. For-
tunately it doesn't show on my
new supercool burgundy sweat
shirt (it smells a little), but it
did stain my wheat jeans. It
was a bizarre way to make an
acquaintance, but I do enjoy
meeting upperclassmen.

Thanks for coming through
with the money, Mom. I was
ready to go welfare. And the
cookies were delicious.

Love,

Ramona

Paradox

By Grace Winn

It is paradoxical that the most
common perversion of Catho-
locism, a religion traditionally
emphasizing salvation by
works, is a casual disregard of
sinful deeds and a reliancesolely
on the sacraments of the church.

The most frequent perver-
sion of Protestantism, tradi-
tionally emphasizing salvation
by faith, is a pharisaic con-
cern with the smallest moral
ru les governing deeds.

A. A. Starts Season With

B. C. Hockey, Ice Skating

This week marks the be-
ginning of the season for one
of A.A.'s most successful ac-
tivities. The hockey season,

SUPER

BALL

Faster than a speeding bullet?
Able to leap tall buildings in a
single bounce?

Well, it all depends on how
hard you can throw the Super
Ball, a rubbery plaything that's
quickly becoming a firstclass
fad in places as diverse as
gradeschool playgrounds and
corporate offices.

Super Ball, a high-pressure
ball developed by a secret for-
mula, is produced by Wham-
O Manufacturing Co., the Cali-
fornia firm that also put Fris-
bies and Hula Hoops on the
m arket.

A "recovery rate" (bounce-
back) of 92 per cent, says
Wham-O, is Super Ball's main
selling point.

Do you need passive exer-
cise? Then drop a Super Ball
from eye level, and watch it
bounce for a full minute

More strenuous activity? If
you throw it to the ground hard
enough, it will bounce as high
as a three-story building.

Super Ball's popularity is
enhanced, too, by its price-
usually less than a dollar

Freshmen vs. Sophomores, Ju-
niors vs. Seniors.

The Atlanta Figure Skating
Club would like to invite any

ters, or who are interested in

Whole Atmosphere Different"
For Transfer Judith Orthwein

Judy Orthwein's impressions
of Agnes Scott contrast sharply
with her prior college expe-
rience. A transfer student from
Sarah Lawrence, a college for
women in Bronkville, N.Y., she
is doing her senior year at
Agnes Scott. Wife of a Yale gra-
duate who is at Emory Law
School, Judy will receive her
degree from Sarah Lawrence in
June.

"The whole atmosphere is
different," Judy generalized.
The superficial reasons and dif-
ferences are apparent when
Judy describes classes and liv-
ing conditions..

A student at Sarah Lawrence
takes only three courses per
year, each lasting the entire
school year. She meets classes
which usually have four or five

students, only 11/2 hours

per week per course. Once a
week she meets for 45 min.her
"don" or faculty advisor,,

"We have very full class pa r-
ticipation." Judy attributes this
primarily to the size of the clas-
ses. At Agnes Scott Judy finds
classes consist of a lot more-
lectures, out of necessity. "The
teacher is totally in control
here...the size of the classes li-
mits the communication be-
tween students, I think," specu-
lated Judy. At Sarah Lawrence
the students do most of the talk-
ing in the classroom.

Although there is class to
class preparation, there are no
tests and students receive no
grades. The professors may
give a student warning, and she
has six weeks to improve the
quality of her work or leave.

The professor comments on
the work, specific comments on
the grasp of the student of the
material. But there is no ge-
neral standard. The student
does receive marks, but never
sees these unless she needs
them for grad school applica-
tion or is planning to transfer.

When I asked Judy if the lack
of grade incentive was an advan-
tage, she spoke again of the col-
lege's basic differences. "I
think it (the non-graded system)
is an advantage...You get much
more of a feeling of personal
satisfaction. You feel

you're working for yourself and

"The Administration's atti-
tude is somewhat, oh, laissez-

but if you want a course not

HELLO TO
MR. ROGERS

by Day Morcock and
Helen Roach

Mr. P. J. Rogers, for the
benefit of you who may not know
him, is the wizard you have
probably seen taking care of the
finishing touches on the Dana
Fine Arts Building. . .or su-
pervising the freshman picnic
. . .or working behind the scenes
for Black Cat.

Though you might not realize
it, he is also the one respon-
sible for fixing that leaky show-
erhead, for keeping that tramp-
led grass replanted, and even
for steering the sophomores in
their quest for the most satis-
factory school ring.

A veteran of Agnes Scott for
thirteen years, Mr. Rogers is
our official Business Manager
and Purchasing Agent. He and
his wife, Virginia have five
children, a married daughter, a
son at Georgia Tech, a son and
daughter at Decatur High, and a
son in grammar school. Be-
fore coming to Scott he served
in a similar capacity at Georgia
Tech.

Friday on Black Cat we ex-
pecially want to recognize Mr.
Rogers for his endless patience
and support in the execution of
the events of Black CatTaswell
as the many other student activ-
ities which wouldn't be possible
without his help.

As a student body we want to
honor him Friday at the open-
ing hockey game. In apprecia-
tion of his frequent smile, good
will, and encouragement we
dedicate the spirit of the day to
him.

fields each year. The senior
year, two of the courses are in
one field.

When asked about social re-
gulations at Sarah Lawrence,
Judy smiled at the frequently-
asked question. "I'm not gloat-
ing, really," she smiled as she
explained the three social rules.
There must be no liquor in the
students' rooms. Men must be
out of the dorm by midnight
(til 10 am). There is sign-out
procedure for overnights,
which are unlimited.

Since there are no house mo-
thers, the rule opposing men in
the dorms past midnight is each
student's responsibility. In-
fringements may be protested
by one student to the offender,
or a student may represent
her hall and speak to the of-
fender. This peer pressure us-
ually works.

The formsr dean of women,
Mrs. Ester Rosenbush, who has
now been promoted to presi-
dent, made a public statement
about the policy. She stated her
own opinion, emphasized that it
was the students own decision.
"She allowed for our own ini-
tiative in the whole thing and
we respected her for it, "com-
ments Judy. From 5-10 pm
Wednesday nights students may
take any problem to the dean
of women, whether academic,
personal, a personality conflict,
a problem in sex, anything. "It's
quite useful, quite a success,"
according to Judy.

At Sarah Lawrence, she be-
lieves students can "develop
more initiative in deciding for
themselves.. People are a lot
more individualistic at Sarah
Lawrence. I'm judging from a
first impression, I know," she
concluded.

Likes Ceramics, Weaving

The new face in the art de-

Miss Susan Robinson, visiting
instructor in art for the '65-

velt is on leave.

Miss Robinson did her under-
graduate and graduate work at
the University of Georgia,
where she got a B.S. in Edu-
cation with a major in art and
a Master of Art Education.

The unusual pottery on dis-
play in the glass cases in Dana
is representative of her thesis

the human form inceramicsfor
her graduate study, using the
human form to suggest deco-

TO THE EDITOR
Letter Recognizes

The rather naive letter of
last week criticizing the PRO-
FILE'S article on Agnes Scott's
own "Bunny'" reveals a re-
grettable absence of any sense
of humor coupled with a fail-
ure to accept or even to recog-
nize the very real world that
goes on outside the ideas of
this campus.

Miss Mallory seems con-
fused on several points. First
of all, the function of a news-
paper is not merely to feed its
public wth more of what that
public already knows, thinks
and feels. Indeed if it did, it
would contain no news since
all information is already known
no editorials since all
thought is already formulated
and no insights since an all-
knowing, all-decided public
would not be interested.

Only Campus

readily testify that no such pro-
tection was afforded them.

The article was pertinent be-
cause it concerned something
perfectly legitimate which one
of our own members did and
enjoyed and wished to share. As
for its being unenlightening, it
could only have been so to some-
one who already knew all about
the job obviously that is not
Miss Mallory.

Finally, as fine a place as
Agnes Scott is, it is not the
world. I would like to say
"Thanks" to the PROFILE for
recognizing this often-neglect-
ed fact and including among the
pages of soul-searching a little
of the whole campus and of the
world that whole campus lives
in.

in ceramics as a thesis pro-
blem evolved from her study of
P re-Columbians ceramics.
Since the human form was used
to suggest both decoration and
pot shape for ancient Greeks,
Egyptians, Pre-Columbians and
Indians, Miss Robinson became
intrigued.

"I wanted to explore not why
the human form isn't being used
today, but how it could be used
in contemporary ceramics,"
comments Miss Robinson.

JOAN GUNTER RECEIVES instructions in art lab from Miss Ro-
binson, who joins the Agnes Scott faculty this year.

"Most important, " said Miss
Robinson of the problem," is
that it is a pot first; often it's
a sculptural pot but it's still
a pot." Although in many cases

the pots primarily are a scene
rather than utilitarian, they're
still containers.

The study, for her, very en-
lightening. She remembers that
she started with very few ideas
for pot shapes, but after a
year found she could spend a
lifetime and never run out of
ideas.

Resurrection Now!

Last year Mortar Board began the search for an alma mater.
At that time, everyone agreed as to the need for one, and two songs
were written and selected as tentative choices. At school's end,
the idea was to sing and know these songs, that a decision would be
made later.

We need now to resurrect this aim, to learn and sing "Convo-
cation of the Present" and "A Song That Will Recall." But we can
do more. For Black Cat, four suitable songs were written. Let us
enter the winning ones in the running for alma mater. The first-
place freshman song should definitely be included.

This done with the sanction of Mortar Board, the students must
take the initiative and learn and sing these songs, giving serious
thought to one of them as the possible, much-needed alma mater.

"The Winnah!

Class Of 1969
Black Cat Song

V/e sought a faith that we might declare,
Trials to dare, friendships to share,
A place where love might find us there,
And so we came to Agnes Scott.

And the autumn turns to winter,
And the winter into springtime,
Still we earnestly strive onward,
Our youthful goals to win.

In faith growing more very day,
September to May, weeping and gay,
We shall surely find the way,
Living here at Agnes Scott.

Class Of 1967

This is a song of the present, of its place in our legacy of time.

This is a song of the future, that our past and today will define.
To sing to the present is our purpose, to the time when we grow
and see

That the bittersweet days of our childhood are a fair and a wist-
ful memory.

Here breaks the dawn of our endeavor to love the challenge, not
the prize.

Our minds are alive, our will is not bent, for we have the future in
our eyes.

GUEST EDITORIAL

CAPITAL PUNISHMENT

By Linda Lou Colvard

In our system of law, three objectives have governed the insti-
tution of punishment: The first, retribution., is the theory by which
one seeks to eliminate the offender's responsibility by fixing a
punishment which is proportionate to the crime. The deterrence
theory seeks to protect society from the persistent offender and to
deter potential offenders. The justification of punishment as a con-
tribution to the rehabilitation of the offender, and thus rendering
him an acceptable member of society, is the third theory. In the
application of these objectives to the death penalty-, the reform
theory is obiously invalidated since dead men cannot be reformed.

The other two objectives are supported as means of attaining
the illusive quality of justice. But indications are that the death
penalty is more a cause of injustice than a servant of justice. This
is the result of unequal administration of the penalty. The ability
or lack of ability of the offender's lawyer may be the deciding fac-
tor in whether or not the convicted man ultimately is executed.
A man is saved from execution by the appeal of ingenious counsel
to the Supreme Court. Another man is convicted and sentenced to
death because his attorney neglected to raise a point of procedure
at trial, thereby barring higher courts from touching the issue.

Emotions and human weaknesses of those in a position to deter-
mine the offender's fate play there part. The result is that the fate
of the wrongdoer is decided by a different yardstick in every case.
For example, the statistics from the state of Virginia are typical
of every southern state. While Negroes committed only 12%
more rapes, they accounted for all 54 executions for rape.

The inability of exercising mathematical precision in reach-
ing the conclusion further allows for the possibility of convicting
the innocent, demonstrated by the James Foster Case of 1956
in Georgia. Foster was positively identified at the capital offen-
der, convicted, and sentenced to death. He was saved by the con-
fession of the actual offender. If this confession had not occured,
there would have been a drastic miscarriage of justice and the
great probalility that the truth would have never been discovered
because there would be no further motive for investigating the
case. Dare we hope that the irremediable taking of an innocent
human life is always prevented by such chance confession?

States differ on the crimes which carry the death penalty, and
in the practice of capital punishment. Thus, a defendant may stand
to rsk losing his life for an act which if committed across the
state line would only send him to jail.

The courts have ruled that the phrase "cruel and unusual". . .
"is not fastened to the obsolete but may acquire meaning as pub-
lic opinion becomes enlightened by a humane justice." This
meaning changes with the standards of society. When a punishment
violates that standard set by society, is is the duty of the court
to declare it unconstitutional. It may be noticed that in the disposi-
tion of capital cases, the number of persons executed has been
dropping steadily.

Those who espouse capital punishment for its deterrent effect
theorize that those who would committ crimes for which death is
the punishment will see it as a potential threat and therefore
not com it the crime. The Southern states have the highest rate of
executions. If capital punishment had a deterrent effect, these
same states should have the lowest rates of murder. The re-
verse is true; the rate of murders is highest in the southern por-
tions of the United States. Some plead for the deterrent effect
in the protection of our police officers. The facts are that the
rates of murder of police officers do not differ from abolition
to non-abolition states. Finally, the murderer is not psychologi-
cally the type of individual who would be deterred by the threat
of death due either to his general psychological pattern or his
behavior at the moment of his frenzied action.

These arguments illustrate the impracticality of the death pe-
nalty as an effective device in the fulfillment of any of the three
decalred motives of punishment and in the obtainment of justice.
Yet these arguments simply apply reason to an issue which should
be confronted essentially with humanistic values. What right has
the individual man, much less collectivized man in the form of
the state, to deny another human being his life on the ground of
justice? To continue this practice does far more than perpetuate
injustice and permit our system its last vestiges of revenage. It
undermines what we are all trying to achieve... .a society where
human life is held as an ultimate value.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Low Interest
In Mallard

Embarassing

Dear Editor;

This Sunday, CA sponsored
the third in its series of Sun-
day afternoondiscussions inthe
Cabin. The title of the lecture
was "The Problem of the His-
torical Jesus." The subject was
the dcmythologizing of the New
Testament, led by Dr. William
Mallard, Professor ofTheoloe^-
at Emory University. Dr. Mal-
lard is a close friend and col-
league of Dr. T.J.J. Altizer, one
of the instigators of the "God

is dead" movement described
in Time Magazine, October 22.
The discussion could not have

been more topical; it dealt with
one of the most controversial
subjects of modern theology.

Because, however, Dr. Mal-
lard does not teach on this cam-
pus, and has not, therefore,
gathered a large clique of stu-
dent followers, the attendance
was less than infinitesimal. Al-
though those of us there appre-
ciated the intimacy of the group,
we could not help but be em-
barrassed by a campus that will
not take the time to listen to an
outsider with something rele-
vant and vital to say.

Many people on this campus
complain that the traditional
Christian religion is unaccepta-
ble, and their many proofs are
valid. However, they have just
lost their right to deplore, and
attribute their skepticism to,
the lack of progressive thinking
available at Scott.

"MOCKINGS"

k

FROM
RAMON A

Dear Mom,

I finally feel in the true spi-
rit of things after Black Cat.
You'll never guess who the star
was my old hockey friend
Alice Davidson. Please send my
pool cue in my next CARE
package.

The freshman talent was a

great surprise folk singing.

My upperclassmen friends tell
me it was quite an original
idea. Actually I'm just bitter
because they wouldn't accept my
tuba-playing and egg-juggling
act. They did sound pretty good.

The hockey game was fun.
I participated in two plays, but
I ran the wrong way on only
one. Our sister class didn't do
so well at hockey either, but
we both came through inthe song
contest.

The sophomores contributed
to the spirit of things by being
a little more rambunctious than
just peppy. We were all cutting
up in Rebekah Thusday night,
but the D.O. told them to cool
it. I might have been kidnapped
if my good friend Barbara Ayers
hadn't suggested that we hide in
the basement.

The sophs are a pretty spiri-
ted group, but I did think they
overstepped by bursting into
their song the minute the pro-
duction was over. You would
have thought they had won. The
moment should have been ours.

I thought hockey was the har-
dest physical exercise. Then I
got to the dance. It was exhaus-
ting, but get fun.

I asked Jerome to the dance,
but he was going home, so I
asked my Junior Sponsor to get
me a blind date. Being a jun-
ior, she deferred to one of the
Sophomore Helpers. He was a
Tech freshman from her home
town, Al Pope. He was rather
attractive. 4' 11". Long red
hair, Inch-thick glasses. We
danced every dance, v/hile he
waxed on for two hours about
some complex theory he's just
taken up in freshman math. I
hated to tell him I learned that
in the eleventh grade.

I was really starved, so I
thought the evening's one sav-
ing moment would be our visit
to Pizza where we got a pizza.
(Odd.) He ordered his own spe-
cial conbination anchovies,
peanut butter, bananas, and cu-
cumber. He created it himself.
Can you believe it?

In accordance with my Vital
Concern Policy I visited Rep.
Council Tuesday. They were
involved with a really fascina-
ting topic that interested me.
Yes, they spent five minutes on
the Yamaha Policy. They way
things are going, Mom, you may
have to send written permission
for me to ride next time. I
took a whirl last weekend and
it reminded me of the way I
used to ride Butch around at
home. Anyway the rest of the
meeting was somehow less dy-
namic and I fell asleep.

Love to all,
Ramona

Michigan Students Have
Chance For Viet Study

ANN ARBOR, Mich. (CPS)-
The University of Michigan is
embarking on an experimental
program with the U.S. State De-
partment to send graduate stu-
dents to study in war-torn Viet-
nam.

The students are to bridge a
20-year gap in educational co-
operation between the United
States and South Vietnam as an
"intellectual peace corps."

One University of Michigan
student and four from other
American universities have
been selected to receive the
academic fellowships for a
year's study at the University
of Saigon, Saigon, South Viet-
nam.

Dr. L. A. Peter Gosling, di-
rector of the University's Cen-
ter for South and Southeast
Asian Studies, said the pro-
gram is a new attempt by the
State Department's Bureau of
Cultural and Educational Af-
fairs to place American stu-
dents overseas.

"Government officials have
felt for a long time that the
Bureau should involve the uni-
versities and make use of their
experience, teaching and se-
lection of students for over-
seas study," Dr. Gosling said.

Dr Gosling said he was
amazed at the numbers of ex-
cellent students who applied for
the new fellowships evidencing a
keen desire to study in Vietnam*

"In setting up the program, I

suddenly realized that it has
been impossible for students to
get to Vietnam for the last
20 years," he pointed out.

'There simply was no way
for interested students to do it.
The foundations were keeping
away because of the changing
political developments, and no
program encouraged scholarly
pursuits between the American
student and the Vietnamese peo-
ple."

The University of Saigon
originally requested the State
Department to set up a program
enabling American students to
study there.

The students selected for the

program are interested in re-
searching topics ranging from
the social sciences to the hu-
manities, Dr. Gosling said.

Dr. Gosling foresees tne stu-
dents may play important roles
in relations between the people
of Vietnam and the United
States. "We have virtually no
social scientists who are well
trained in Vietnamese studies
per se, who have known first-
hand the Vietnam language and
culture," he said. "Except
for the experience of the mil-
itary, we have not had profic-
ient persons in Vietnam who
were cultural specialists."

A CENTRAL SCENE from Le Treteau de Paris' presentation of "L'Annonce faite a Marie" in

French by Paul Claudel and unanimously acclaimed throughout the country. It will be presented
at Agnes Scott November 9.

Dalton Display Opens In Dana

The Dalton Art Collection do-
nated to Agnes Scott by Mr. and
Mrs. Harry L. Dalton of Char-
lotte, North Carolina opened
Sunday, October 24.

The Daltons were present
for the official opening in the
Dana Fine Arts Building.

The following works were
exhibited:

B.A. Graduates Must
Prepare For Jobs Now

'To every thing there is a
season, and a time to every
purpose under heaven." For
those who wrote the Bible, this
phrase in Ecclesiastes might
have referred to a phase in
man's life other than work, but
the philosophy behind it is still
as relevant today as it was
thousands of years ago ,

Now is the season to pre-
pare yourself for a job
whether you are a freshman,
sophomore, junior or senior;
single, engaged or married.

Since the days of the stay-
at-home-spinet-playing- woman
seem gone forever, high on
the list of what to do after col-
lege seems to be a job with
scope, interest and challenge
for the married and unmarried
woman. Everybody wants to
work today I

Wanting to work, however,
does not always mean that there
is a job for every desire. For
the liberal arts graduate, es-
pecially, the right job can be-
come an acute problem.

Although a liberal education
does equip one to think it doesn't
necessarily give one the tools
that are needed for working in
the business world. Even a
magna cum laude, leading in all
scholastic honors, may find it
some what difficult to find a job
if she doesn't have that very
small but special skill that is
required.

We are not plugging that col-
leges become trade or voca-
tional schools. Far from it.
What we do suggest, however,
is that along with the broaden-
ing of one's intellectual hori-
zons, one should also consider
the possibility of merging one's
major into a saleable commo-
dity for the Job market.

To be a successful career
hunter, we have observed, re-
quires an ability to understand
both One's inner needs and what
the world may have to offer.
Self knowledge is imperative.
To be aware of the job market
U another.

Every field, whether it is pub-
lishing, insurance, advertising
and public relations, television,
theatre and radio, market re-
search, foundations, social ser-
vices or industry has need at
one time or another for a young
woman with a college education*

Then why the lament "No-
body needs us"? The unfortu-
nate truth is that the Bache-
lor's alone is not quite enough
for the specifications of ninety-
nine percent of the jobs.

The problem lies in the struc-
ture of business. But until the
needs of business change, the
problem will remain.

There are only a limited num-
ber of jobs available to the col-
lege grad that do not require
office skills. Actually, asking
that a college grad be able to
type a letter is not really a
strange request.

When a young person pre-
pares for teaching, she learns
a special skill, for social work,
another skill, for art, another,
and so on. Why then, should
she feel that she can enter the
business world with no pre-
pared skill to meet its demands?

The fields most interested in
and interesting to college grads
are the communications field \
Imagine trying to communic-te
without the written word 1 Visua-
lize further, attempting to run
a business without the ubiqui-
tious typewriter!

Some small but special skills
are important for the job hunter.
Fortunately, one of these skills
is the easily acquired typing
facility.

Most of you know how to type
already, and all you will have
to do is practice enough to build
up your speed and accuracy.
Another important "special" is
to have some knowledge of what
to expect in the various fields.

of articles on job opportunities
in the communications field*

Famous French Troup
Brings Claudel Play

L' Announce faite a Marie
(The Tidings Brought to Mary),
a French play by Paul Claudel,
will be presented at Agnes Scott
Tuesday, November 9th. Le
Treteau de Paris, a profes-
sional French theatre company
of international reputation, will
do the performance, in French.

Paul Claudel is recognized
as one of the great French dra-
matists of the twnetieth cen-
tury, and L'Announce is acclai-
med as his poetic masterpiece.

The play had over 350 per-
formances in Paris at the Thea-
tre de l'Ouvre during the 1961-
1962 season; it enjoyed a two
and one half week limited enga-
gement on Broadway last April,
and will be seen a total of 125
times around the United States
this year.

Pierre Franck is the direc-
tor, and starring roles are held
by Jean Davy, France Descaut

and Madeleine Vimes.

The tour by the Treteau de
Paris is sponsored by the
French government. The com-
pany's goal is to demonstrate
the beauty of the French lan-
guage as well as the nobility,
poignancy and passion of the
drama.

Their talent has been proclai-
med by both the French and
American press. Critics claim
that the clarity and precision
of the players' language is such
that the play is easy to follow
and its dramatic impact can be
felt, even with only a moderate
familiarity with the Frenchlan-
guage.

Tickets for the Agnes Scott
performance will be sold in ad-
vance, but no seats are reser-
ved. Admission is $2.00 for stu-
dents, and $3.00 for adults.
Everyone is invited.

FRANCE DESCAUT and Jean Davy star in the Treteau De Paris'

production of "L'Annonce faite a Marie" by Paul Claudel.

Freshman Expects Carefree Year,
Finds Hard Work, Responsibility

by Betsy Anderson

Excerpted with permission from articles in
.Th e St. Petersburg (Florida) Times

The high school graduate who packed his
suitcases and headed for college last month
may have expected to find a carefree year
of fun, football games, fraternity parties, all
night bull sessions and good grades.

If he's one in a million, perhaps he'll find
such a year.

The time won't be so picture-perfect for
most of his classmates, though. They'll find
new cares and new problems along with the
new friends, new experiences and new know-
ledge.

Dr. Thomas West, director of guidance
and counseling at Florida Presbyterian Col-
lege in Su Petersburg, calls the freshman
year "a time for testing, for real movement
into making big decisions and taking respon-
sibility."

"It involves a change in the level of dif-
ficulty of courses along with the removal of
supervision of high school," says Mrs. Nancy
McGarry, dean of women at St. Petersburg
Junior College and a former guidance coun-
selor at Northwestern. She notes that the
year "bridges a gap" between high school and
adult life.

TENSIONS

Problems and tensions come with the newly
found independence. The student who goes
away from home to college no longer has pa-
rents who are making sure that he eats the
right food, gets enough sleep or does things
when he should.

Despite the lectures on "freedom and res-
ponsibility" every college freshmen hears
from professors who indicate he should be
able to manage his new life, organizing and
sticking to a schedule for getting everything
done still befuddles many afreshm an. "Time",
sayd Dr. West, "is the biggest problem our
freshmen have."

Away from home and direct parental influ-
ence, college freshmen sometimes decide to
"turn over a new leaf" and assume a new per-
sonality. Many times this change comes as a
result of pressure to conform to accepted
norms in everything from manner of speech to
matters of morals.

SEX PRESSURE

"The biggest pressure to conform comes
in the area of sex," comments Dr. West. He
says many new college students find a re-
lative relaxation of moral codes they're ac-
customed to. This results in pressure to test
old codes and go against standards which the
person has been taught to respect.

He notes that some students need to change
some of their standards, but suggests that "it's
better to wait a^whilebef ore redefining values."

And Mrs. McGarry counsels that "the emo-
tional trauma of giving up standards a student
believes in may be worse that the strain of not
conforming."

The college freshman has to learn to live
with a number of different kinds of people.
"Dorm life is a change," says a husky red-
haired sophom ore at the University of Florida.
"You just meet ALL kinds! EVERYBODY 1 1" he
adds.

Often problems stemning from bad room ate
situations can threaten to wreck a whole year,
says Dr. West. He suggests that "talking
things out" as difficult as it might seem at
first is the best remedy.

Families are another source of pressure on
the college freshman.

Throckmortimer

BROKEN TIES

"Ties have to be broken somewhere, and
often it's a hard thing for both sides. The
freshman has a whole new life to live. He's
not in the family community any more. There
are problems in communication," explains
a senior at George Tech.

"You become so independent at school you
feel you don't really need your parents. You
think you can do what you please. Parents
resent this," declares a blonde University
of Florida sophomore.

Academic tensions probably worry more
college freshmen to a greater degree than
any other kind of pressure. One nation-
wide survey indicated that 58 per cent of
college freshmen feel one of their greatest
pressures is to make better grades. (The
next most common pressure to get along
socially was shared by only 24 per cent
of college freshmen.)

Harder courses, greater competition, in-
decision regarding the right field of study
and learning effective study habits are, in
a nutshell, the biggest academic stumbling
blocks facing the freshman.

LOW GRADES

Dean McGarry notes the "terrific adjust-
ment necessary for the high school student
who is used to being top drawer and comes to
college with expectations of doing well, but
who doesn't make top grades despite working
at top ability."

Freshmen curricula in many colleges and
universities consist of a number of survey
courses designed to give the student a gen-
eral knowledge of a wide variety of fields.
The student who is planning to major in Eng-
lish may find the required sience course dif-
ficult and may resent the time it takes away
from literature courses.

On the other hand, the freshman at techno-
logical schools, such as Georgia Tech, starts
basic courses in his major field at once and
may find the subject not to his liking once he
studies it in depth. The leads to changes in
major fields of study which may prolong college
and result in higher education costs.

And then there's the matter of studying.

"Most colleges feel morally bound not to
accept a student who can't do the work re-
quired of him," says Dr. West. "The vast
majority are capable of handling the load if
they learn to study."

"I knew it was going to be hard," says a
sophomore at the University of Florida, "but
I didn't think it was going to be like this. You
have so much freedom, you have to MAKE
yourself study! You hear about all-nighters
(when students go without sleep to study from
dusk to dawn). They're for real I"

EXCITING TIME

Even with tensions and unhappy moments,
the first year of college is an exciting time.

"You change," says one student. "You
start realizing how much you don't know.
You don't think you're such a hot shot any-
more."

"The boy who has finished his freshman
year has a sense of maturity he couldn't have
had in high school, or even after the first
quarter," says a Georgia Tech senior.

"The real joy of college comes when you
realize you can handle the tensions you face
and become the man you must become," he
concludes.

Protest Forms Against
Cruelty To Lab Animals

The Humane Society of the
United States and the National
Catholic Society for Animal
Welfare are concerned about the
proported cruel treatment of
animals in laboratories.

They say that, of course,
some experimentation with
animals is quite necessary, but
it seems that animals are made
to endure pain that is not at all
necessary.

Experiments are being re-
peated which can, in no way,
add new information. They feel
that something should be done
to protect the vertebrates a-
gainst this unnecessary suffer-
ing.

Another point which has been
brought up is that the treat-
ment of the animals before they
are used in experimentation.
They are not fed properly, they
lack the proper amount of exer-
cise, and they are provided with
inadequate shelter.

Those who are trying to get
something done about the sit-
uation have tried to emphasize
that they do not want to abo-
lish the use of animals in the
laboratories. They merely want
to curtail unnecessary suffering
of the animal.

So far all efforts to secure
enactment of an effective law
have failed. The voices of the
medical lobbies have been much
louder than those of groups
pushing the bills.

This year Senator Joseph
Clark of Pennsylvania has in-
troduced into Congress another
bill which also failed. This bill
would require humane treat-
ment of lab animals by insti-
tutions receiving grants from
the federal government.

As the Washington Post
states, "It aims to do no more
than to minimize needless, wan-

ton suffering. It has been care-
fully drafted to avoid any im-
pediment to rational scientifici
study; it is no sense an anti-
Yivisection bill.

"It provides machinery for
reporting and inspection de-
signed to assure decent care
of animals awaiting experi-
mental treatment, anestheti-
zation when this would not inter-
fere with an experiment, and
prompt dispatch of a dying ani-
mal to avoidunnecessaryagony
when the experiment has been
completed."

This bill was patterned after
similar legislation which Eng-
land has had for 90 years.

One of the more popular bills
has been introduced by Repre-
sentative Claude Pepperof Flo-
rida. It is, in essence, almost
identical to the Clark bill, but
is more explanatory and deals
with solving the problem more
extensively.

Of course, if either of these
bills were enacted, they would
provide for the inspection of
only the laboratories which re-
ceive money from the govern-
ment. In others, only educa-
tion can prevent cruelty.

urged to write to the following:

The Need To Adjust

by Ed Schwartz
New York University

Students are often urged to
"adjust."

With the collapse last year
of the educational philosophy
of an entire decade at Berkeley
and elsewhere, college admini-
strators are going to have a
few adjustment problems of
their own. Higher education has
changed. It is no longer a sa-
cred luxury of the elite, as it
may have been 25 years ago.
Nor is it the protracted guide-
book for technocrats encour-
aged in the 4 50's. The numerous
popular attacks on specializa-
tion have succeeded sufficiently
that even students are beginning
to value liberal arts in the
classroom and open discussion
outside of it. This has come as
a shock to those accustomed to
the complacence of the "ivory
tower intellectual" for whom
a university was little more than
a lab, a library, a classroom,
and a bunk. It's time they re-
covered.

In the days of elite education,
the re would have been some me-
rit to the administrative conten-
tion that powerful student go-
vernments or vocal undergra-
duate- political organizations
were not an essential part of a
campus. Learning was pursued
either "for its own sake" or
for a job. Even today, Dean
Griswold of Harvard Law School
could boast to a group of Oberlin
alumni that "our students are
too busy worrying about torts
to get concerned about 'their
role in the decision - making
process'." His was the clea-
rest statement of what I would
call the "our Negroes are Hap-
py" school of college admini-
strators.

Criswold, however, presides
over one of the last strongholds
of the elite. The relationship
between the law student and the
university is vertical. He has
no social rules. He is not ex-
pected to "develop as a whole
man," although he might. Chan-
ces are that he has his own
apartment and lives independent
of university facilities, except
those' which relate to his study
of law. His concern with univer-
sity decision-making reflects
the university's unwillingness
to make any decisions for him.

Undergraduate schools do not
benefit from such laissez-faire
policies. They boast large pro-
grams of e xtra-curricular ac-
tivities to develop qualities of
citizenship. They strive to up-
hold the moral standards of
those enrol led. They may re-
quire that a student live in a
college dorm, eat in a college
dining hall, and obey a long list
of college rules n. printed in a

college handbook or tacked on
a college wall. They may hire
psychologist, special counse-
lors, administrators of extra-
curricular activities, even so-
cial directors. By their own
admission, classroom educa-
tion is only one part of their re-
lationship to the student.

When an undergraduate ac-
cepts this premise, however,
that student's involvement in
policy is equally necessary to
develop "qualities of citizen-
ship" and that student action in
local communities is a desir-
able adjunct to courses in the
social sciences, the same ad-
ministrators will revert to the
elitist argument that "educa-
tion should be confined to the
classroom you have no busi-
ness doing any of these things."

If I were a rabid leftist, I
would brand such sophistry as
a glaring example of Esta-
blishment hypocrisy. So as not
to inpugn motives, I would sug-
gest that it represents an un-
witting contradiction.

I do not object to a univer-
sity which seeks to provide
extra - curricular as well as
classroom programs for its
students. Indeed, as higher edu-
cation is made available to
large numbers and as course
material replaces vocational
training with "broad develop-
ment," opportunities for ac-
tion will be necessary for stu-
dents to test conflicting theo-
ries through participation. But
a university cannot confuse de-
velopment with indoctrination,
participation with manipulation,
and expect a person trained in
critical thought to accept. The
student need only examine Na-
poleon's system of non-repre-
sentcd governments to evaluate
the political position of his stu-
dent government. A quick in-
take of Socrates' "Apology"
should provide him an incentive
for honest expression. And then
there's that messy business of
civil rights.

Therefore the administrator
must adjust. If he wants the
American campus to become
a laboratory for the "leaders
of tomorrow," he must create
a campus community in which
qualitie s of leadership can be
develope d one which guaran-
tees that a student opinion has
some chance of implementation
and which enables a student
politico to work in the "real
world" with the university's
blessings. Otherwise, the ad-
ministrator will discover that
the student has learned his les-
sons too we 11.

graduate school-secretary con-
trovesy has been solved for a
large group of students.

Susan Ledford returned fall
quarter engaged to Charlie

Jenny Davis is engaged to Bob
Oliver, a Resident doctor; Alice
Lindsey to Andrew Blake; Janet

her sister Louise is pinned to
Eric Lewis, KA at Tech where
she is also sweetheart.

Bonnie Jo Henderson is

FOREST FIRES!

Fine Play Season's First,
"Joan" Brilliantly Done

by Jane D. Mahon

Due to an unforgivable mis-
take on the part of the Profile.
only now has it been publically
revealed by the party in ques-
tion that Alice Hopkins
was badged, not pinned, to Billy
Field , an ATO at Tech for a
week last spring quarter until
he took it back. Even the most
diligent researcher can over-
look such vital vignettes on
campus romantic activity.

MONEY DOES
GROW ON TREES
IN THE SOUTH

Atlanta's Municipal Thea-
ter's first presentation of its
new Fine Play Season was Geor-
ge Bernard Shaw's "Saint
Joan". It played at the Commu-
nity Playhouse October 12-24.

Sandra Kaufman was a bril-
liant and dynamic Joan. And sne
was excellently supported by
Joel Fabiani as Robert de Bua-
dricourt, John Wardwell as The
Archbishop of Rheims, James
Sloyan as Bluebeard, and Ric-
hard Matthews as The Dauphin,

Michael Ebert was a hand-
some and firy Bastard of Or-
leans. David Hook portrayed
the insipid Bishop of Beauvois
very well, and William Hanson
as The Inquisitor was realistic
and excellently pointed out the
corruption of the Inquisition.

LETTERS TO
THE EDITOR

Letters to the editor are
welcome. These should be
typed,double spaced, SIGNED,
and sent to Editor, Box 719.
They should not exceed two
typed pages.

The PROFILE will not pub-
lish anonymous letters. Let-
ters may be published unsign-
ed at the discretion of the edi-
tor, providing she knows the
identity of the writer.

Michael Howard directed the
play, and his product was uni-
fied and lent itself to audience
participation. The Community
Playhouse has an open stage
similar to the one in the Dana
Fine Arts Building, and Mr. Ho-
ward used it brilliantly.

I felt particularly a part of
the play in the first court scene
at the court of The Dauphin and
in the Inquisition scene. This,
of course, was due to a large
extent on the fine calibre of the
acting throughout the play.

In addition, the players vivdly
dramatized the theme that
clerical and civil heirarchies
obscure the truth. Also, the
theme of God's surpassing all
human institutions to obtain His
truth was portrayed well.

In this light the Inquisition
scene was particularly well
done. Sandra Kaufman was an
inspiring Joan, and William
Hansen was as cold and un-
swerving as the Inquisition he
represented.

The evening was a rewarding
experience. Judging from the
fine quality of this production
of the Municiple Theater, thea-
ter-goers are offered a rich
experience in the remainder of
the Fine Play Season which in-
cludes "Death of a Salesman"
and "Romeo and Juliet."

This year's Black Cat pro-
duction was the best I've seen.
"A Portrait of the Artist as
a Young Hustler" was the first
in this "year of exciting mi-
racles."

The reasons are many. The
choice of "The Music Man"
as a basis for the idea as well
as the music is the main one.

Poppy Wilson and her talented
script committee had imagina-
tive material to work with, and
they took the hint and adapted
it imaginatively, coming up with
terrifically satirical and clever
lines and ideas.

Some of the songs were espe-
cially memorable, particularly
the parodies of "Seventy-Six
Trombones" and "The Wells
Fargo Wagon." Picaynish Deb-
vie Potts did a good job with the
effective "We Got Trouble."

The entire cast was good;
some were outstanding. Among
these are, of course, Alice Da-
vidson as clear-voiced, pool-
playing Marian, Chris Babbage
as that "heck of a male libra-
rian." Debbie Rosen as her-
self presiding over a rather
truly-depicted Rep Council, and
Susan Landrum as the dis-
traught, weeping, ousted artist.

Portia Morrison and Martha
Thompson displayed amazing
talent at dancing. And the en-
tire audience thrilled to the
performance of that versatile

thespian Dr. Alston, remem-
bered by upperclassmen for
his dynamic portrayal of Pooh.

The freshman talent was
good, and well-worked into the
plot. Indeed, one of the pro-
duction's chief virtues was its
satisfying unity.

The backstage work was
equally commendable. Special
thanks go to Carol Sutherland
for scenery, Ann Rogers for
choreography. Much credit goes
also to Linda Marks for doing
the music and so many other
things, and to Mary Barnett
for heading up the entire pro-
duction.

Congratulations are also in
order for the audience, to Rag-
gedy Ann and her song contest-
winning freshmen and to junior
Peter Pan who racked up again.

This Black Cat Day was a
great first step and assurance
that "'66 will roll."

Michigan Tries New
Verbal Grading System

KALAMAZOO, Mich. (CPS)
Some students at Kalamazoo
College are getting verbal gra-
des.

What they hear, simply, is
the recorded voice of their pro-
fessor evaluating and grading
their term papers or lab re-
ports. By replacing the red pen-
cil with a dictation machine, se-
veral professors have found that
they can give students more than
twice as many comments with-
out increasing the time it takes
to grade a set of papers.

The school has not had the
opportunity to evaluate the sys-
tem scientifically but some ob-
servations, based on the 200
students involved in the initial
test, have been released.

Thus far the system has been
tried by professors in the Eng-
lish, history, philosophy, and
chemistry departments. All the
teachers who have tried the new
form of grading plan to keep us-
ing it. Dr. John B. Moore, who

introduced the system at Kala-
mazoo, says that student-teach-
er contact is greatly increased.
Dr. Moore originally tried the
idea in an attempt to save grad-
ing time. Instead, he found he
was spending about the same
amount of time grading papers
but was making far more detail-
ed comments than he did with a
pen.

There have been no student
complaints and much praise
from those who felt they were
receiving more personal at-
tention. "We get a lot more
understanding just by hearing
the tone of the professor's
voice," one student said.

"Hustler" Best Skit In
Recent Black Cat Days

by Ann Roberts

by Margaret Davis

When I elected to spend my
summer in the slums of Wash-
ington, D.C. as a social worker,
I had only a vague idea of what
my work or living conditions
would consist.

I think I went because the job
presented a challenge to con-
front poverty face-to-face and
an opportunity to become in-
volved in the way-of-life and in
the problems of a segment of
our society which has not be-
nefitted from its growing af-
fluence.

I was employed, along with
fourteen other college students,
as a member of the Summer
Service Corps of Friendship
House. We were given room and
board in the House and were
paid a subsistence salary of
$50.

Friendship House is a settle-
ment supported by government
funds, United Funds, and pri-
vate benefactors. The settle-
ment idea originated in London
in the latter part of the nine-
teenth century and has become
a traditional way of serving a
deprived urban area.

The House provides such ser-
vices to the neighborhood as
day care for children of working
parents, day camps and resi-
dence c amps ^ during t he sum-

C.A. Evaluates
Discussions

Successful'

"I think they've been really
successful." This is the reac-
tion of Judy Nuckols to the
Christian Association discus-
sion groups which she organiz-
ed. ,

Led by members of the fa-
culty, the discussion groups met
on Sunday afternoons. The first
discussion was led by Mrs.
Margaret W. Pepperdene, who
discussed T.S. Eliot.

Dr. Theodore Greene spoke
on the topic," Need We Re-
think Our Religious Beliefs,"
specifically mentioning the di-
vision on college campuses be-
tween believers and skeptics.

Concluding the discussions
last Sunday, October 24, Mr.
William Mallard of the Emory
University School of Theology
talked on the subject of "Quest
for the Historical Jesus."

Judy said that she did not
want to discuss the success of
the discussions in terms of
numbers, because both C.A. and
the faculty agreed that it did not
matter whether "five people or
fifty" came.

However the discussion
groups were well attended with
about fifty people at each one.

mer, an unemployment office,
an emergency supply office,
club programs for various ages,
a savings and loan office, a
casework agency, and lawyer
services. Usually a settlement
house is a center of community
participation, but this role has
taken on a somewhat different

aspect with the new emphasis
on Community Action.

Supported by the War on Po-
verty, many members of the
community are taking the ini-
tiative and assuming leadership
in solving the problems of their
area. The settlement house now
serves as a coordinating point
for the academic knowledge and
skills of trained social workers
and the background and exper-
ience of community workers.
Other aspects of President
Johnson's Poverty Program
which I encountered were Head'
start and the Neighborhood
Youth Corps.

Friendship House was the
former home of Francis Scott
Key and has the further his-
torical attraction of having pro-
vided overnight lodgings for
George Washington. Being lo-
cated about seven blocks south-
east of the Capitol, it was con-
venient for sightseeing expedi-
tions in free time.

However, the sensitive ob-
server is struck by the jarring
spectacle of the heart of our
nation surrounded by slums
where hunger, want and depri-
vation prevail. Friendship
House is situated in one of these
slum sections, of whose popu-

lace approximately 95% woula
be classed in the lower income
bracket. 70% of the neigh-
borhood are Negro.

I had been assigned to group
work, which as I soon learned,
was a field of social work which
concentrates on helping the in-
dividual achieve his fullest po-
tential in a democratic group
setting. My first task was to
work with a neighborhood gang
of about twelve boys and girls,
ages six to twelve.

Unfortunately their leader, a
boy of eleven, provided a belli-
gerent and potentially delin-
quent example. My job was to
provide constructive activities
and opportunities for this group.
Since the first step was to win
their confidence, I began by
making friends with some of
the individual members and by
visiting their homes in order
to get a better picture of their
environment and to secure the
support of their families.

In several cases, the children
were from homes disturbed by
familial or financial problems.
My role as leader of the group
was to create an atmosphere in
which all the members were ac-
cepted and to encourage the
group to work together in plann-
ing and carrying out activities
and in problem-solving. By the
end of the summer, group co-
herence and cooperation had
markedly increased.

My work with two boys 'clubs
followed much the same pattern.
Looking back now, I feel that
this experience has been one of
the most satisfying and reward-
ing experiences of my life.

THE PROFILE

October Mademoiselle
Examines New Colleges

As most of the nation's stu-
dents return to older, well-
established colleges and uni-
versities, Mademoiselle's
October issue profiles several
new, more or less experimental
schools across the country.

In an article entitled "The
Ivyless League, "the magazine
finds that more emphasis
is being given in new colleges
to flexible curriculms and ac-
tive student governments.
These examined schools offer
students the chance to help
create their own educations.

A new branch of St. John's
in Annapolis, Md., is located
in Santa Fe, N.M. Classes dis-
play the intensely academic fla-
vor of the school an aura
particularly noticeable in Santa
Fe, where the campus is situ-
ated on the brick-red , pinion-
dotted, high desert, and the sky
and light are very close; super-
ficial values are reduced to size
in such a setting.

The curriculum is not re-
stricted to departments andma-
jors. Tutors, or teachers, are
prepared to teach any subject
to any group of students, all
of whom take identical courses
in language (Greek and French),
math and science (four years of
each), a music seminar, and
numerous tutorials that more or
less cover philosophy, theology,
literature and history.

Texts for these studies are
pure primary- source material,
not compiled textbooks, with
heavy emphasis on classics.
Students are evaluated on their
oral work and performance on
papers, rather than a set se-
ries of examinations.

Comments one student: "The
motivation is up to you; you
feel insufficient if you're not
doing you best."

New College in Sarasota,
Fla., welcomed its first class
of 100 students last fall. Stu-
dents were carefully chosen.

President Plans More U.S.
Study For Foreign Students

For years tnere nas been a
slow, steady and massive
spread of education across in-
ternational frontiers. It has
been largely spontaneous and
unorganized. Ninety per cent of
the 90,000 foreign students now
in the United States, for ex-
ample, are here under private
auspices.

How much could be done if
countries and schools, govern-
ments, universities, and insti-
tutions were to give these in-
ternational programs greater
facilities and sense of direc-
tion, asks the Vista, Central
State College, Edmond, Okla.

At the 200th anniversary of
the birth of the founder of the
Smithsonian Institution, Presi-
dent Johnson announced a new
adventure in education to go
beyond American shores.

"We mean to show that this
nation's dream of a great so-
ciety does not stop at the water's
edge," the President said. "It
is not Just an American dream.
All are welcome to share it.
All are invited to contribute to
it."

A special task force has been
appointed to find out just how
much could be done if this pro-
ject were pursued. It will re-

port in January.

A coordinated effort to in-
crease the number of interna-
tional students who come to the
United States will not only aid
in developing other nations, but
also help American institutions
increase their "knowledge of
the world and the people who
inhabit it."

U.S. Attacks
Hanoi Trials
Of "Crimes

The State Department on Sep-
tember 29 asserted that any
action on the part of the Hanoi
regime to hold so-called "war
crimes" trials against Ameri-
can pilots who are prisoners
of war in North Yiet-Nam would
be a trespass on reprisals
which is contained in the 1949
Geneva Convention.

The U.S. has requested the InS
ternational Committee of the
Red Cross to bring its influence
to bear on North Yiet-Nam, an
adherent to the Convention, to
abide by its terms.

They averaged in the 95th per-
centile on their College Boards)

and, commented one professor,
"On paper, they looked better
than any freshman class I saw
at Yale."

The facilities included the ad-
Joining Ringling Museum of Art,
with its famous collection of
Rubens paintings and excellent
art library.

New College's experimental
curriculum is designed to
emphasize the interrelation-
ships between academic dis-
ciplines. In the first year, all
students take three basic cour-
ses; in the second, they specia-
lize- and in the third, they
divide their time between their
majors and a seminar with stu-
dents from other disciplines,
each bringing his own point of
view to a discussion of a major
issue.

Classes are held all year
round, and the program is com-
plete in three years. Rules
are made and enforced by the
students, and the college has
no required tests except for
annual comprehensives.

In all areas, as the dean said
last fall, "We're trying to
make the students really res-
ponsible for what they do."

The newest of the Claremont
Colleges, a cluster of six
schools in quiet town, an hour
from Los Angeles, Pitzer open-
ed in 1964 with 150 women stu-
dents and a curriculum empha-
siging the behaviorial sciences
(psychology, anthropology, so-
ciology).

Pitzer offers an opportunity
many new schools talk about
but few can actually boast: The
Pitzer town meeting, an experi-
ment in true democracy, in a
group far smaller than the citi-
zenry of ancient Athens, has
produced much sadder-but-
wiser prose.

In mid-May, a Pitzer senior
wrote, "After emotional haran-
gues and almost Southern Bap-
tist-style speeches for three
weeks, Community Government
passes . . .but it was a fight
to avoid an ordinary student
government, with the faculty and
administration heading the hie-
rarchy."

Like many new colleges, Pit-
zer is not afraid of bringing
the topical into the classroom.
During some civil rights
demostrations in Los Angeles,

when only a fourth of the class
showed up, the young professor
cancelled the class, and she and
the remaining students drove off
to L.A.

Amherst Students Protest
Against Rat Fink Clause

AMHERST, Mass. (CPS)
Students at Amherst College are
protesting a new set of parietal
rules, including a so-called
"rat-fink" clause which makes
all residents in each dormitory
responsible for reporting vio-
lations of the social code.

Student protest has taken the
form of college-wide discus-
sions and letters to the student
paper, the Amherst Student.
About 100 students have not han-
ded in signed honor code cards,
by which a student indicates he
is willing to abide by the social
code, including the "rat-fink"
clause.

Hie student council is organi-
zing a poll of all students on
the social hours issue and is
encouraging all dormitories to
elect representatives to a stu-
dent inter-dormitory council,
which is in charge of formula-
ting the social code.

Along with the exclusion of
the "rat-fink" clause, students
are demanding a extension of
the hours during which women
are allowed to visit the dormi-
tories.

Presided For 28 Years
At Agnes Scott College

James Ross McCain, the 84-
year-old president emeritus of
Agnes Scott, died October 30
in a local hospital. He had been
in good health until Saturday.

Dr. McCain served as presi-
dent of the college from 1923
to 1951. Earlier this year he
completed an a round- the- wo rid
tour alone, returning to his
home on South Candler in Deca-
tur after traveling 29,000 miles.

Born in Covington, Term, in
1881, he was the son of Lula
(Todd) and John I. McCain, both
now deceased. His father was
a professor of English at Ers-
kine College, Due West, S.C r ,
which named its library in his
memory.

The president emeritus came
to Georgia in 1905. In 1906
he married the late Pauline
Martin, who died 12 years ago.
They are survived by six child-
ren, three sons and three daugh-
ters.

They are Mrs. Eugene M.
Boyce of Tallahassee, Fla.;
Mrs. William C. Brown of Haz-
ard, Ky.; and Mrs. Barrington
K. Kinnairdof Waynesboro, Va.;
surviving sons are Dr. John R.
of Decatur, Dr. Paul M. of
Batesville, Ark., and Dr. Char-
les R. McCain of LaG range, Ga.

All of Dr. McCain's sons hold
doctoral degrees, one in medi-
cine, one in theology, and one
in history. The historian is
now president of Arkansas Col-
lege. His three daughters are
all graduates of Agnes Scott.

Twenty-two grandchildren
also survive him.

Dr. McCain held nine de-
grees. He had B.A., M.A.,
and LL.D. degrees from Ers-
kine College, an LL.B. from
Mercer University, an M.A.
from the University of Chicago,
a Ph. D . in history from Colum-
bia University, and LL.D. de-
grees from Davidson College,
Emory University, and Tulane
University.

Before coming to Georgia, he
practiced law in Spartanburg,
S. C. from 1901-1903. He was
a high school principal in his
home town from 1903-1905.

When he came to Georgia,
James Ross McCain founded and
was head of Darlington School
for boys in Rome, from 1905-
1915.

In 1915 he joined the Agnes
Scott faculty as registrar and
professor of economics; hewas
later vice-president of the col-
lege.

In addition to his 28-year
presidency at Agnes Scott, Dr.
McCain was president of the
Association of Georgia Colleges
in 1926 and 1940. Hewas pres-
ident of the Association of
American Colleges in 1936-
1937.

Dr. McCain presided over the

Southern University Conference
in 1938-1939, and was senator
of the United Chapters of Phi
Beta Kappa from 1937 to 1946.

From 1940-1946 he was a
trustee of the General Educa-
tion Board of New York.

James Ross McCain was in-
strumental in founding the Sou-
thern Association of Secondary
Schools, and worked continually
throughout his lifetime to
strengthen scholastic standards
of these schools.

As a historian, Dr. McCain
wrote three books, The Exe-
cutive in Proprietary Georgia,
Georgia as a Proprietary Pro-
Ex

"oT

vince , and The Exe<
Trust.

He was instrumental in the
formation of the University
Center in Georgia, a coope-
rative program among six in-
stitutions Agnes Scott, Co-
lumbia Theological Seminary,
Emory University, Georgia In-
stitute of Technology, Univer-
sity of Georgia, and Atlanta Art
Association which provides
for the sharing of visiting lec-
turers, professors, exchange
of students, union library cata-
logues, and other services.

Dr. McCain was also active
in denomination-wide Presby-
terian work. He was mode-
rator of the Presbyterian
Church in the United States in
1951-1952, and chairman of the
General Council from 1949 to
1951.

Dr. McCain was interred at
the Decatur Cemetery in a pri-
vate service Monday morning,

A Modern Honor?

Hpnor Emphasis Week this year, carrying as its combined
title and theme " 'Something is taking its course* : An Ex-
ploration of Integrity," is a departure from the norm and note-
worthy for that alone. But it promises to be more than dif-
ferent; it promises to be good.

The basic approach is an exciting and vital one, its manifes-
tations original and new. Rather than a discussion specifical-
ly of the Agnes Scott honor system, or as is usually the case,
a rehashing of the Agnes Scott rules, the work of the week will
center on honor in the world in general, a materialistic, self-
centered, strife-filled world where honor perhaps no longer
exists as a positive value.

The topics are such pertinent ones as the honor of student
commitment to political and social movements, the integrity
involved in dealings among nations as well as individuals.
We urge all students to give it a try. Maybe you have been
disillusioned, disappointed, bored, or plain confused by past
Honor Emphasis programs. Come participate in the new idea.

As far as honor is concerned, are we living in an Eliot's
Waste Land drought, a Beckett's Endgame void? Hopefully
we are not, but come study the problem of honor in the modern
macrocosm, then relate the answers to the modern micro-
cosm.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Sophs Explain

Class Motives
At Black Cat

Dear Editor:

We feel that the PROFILE did
not give adequate coverage of
the events of Black Cat.

While we realize that the
freshmen and the juniors took
the honors in the song contest,
and for this we heartily con-
gratulate them, we do not feel
that the song contest was the
only instance of originality dur-
ing Black Cat.

The hockey gam 2, which war-
ranted only a score box, was
certainly full of surprises and,
therefore, newsworthy. The
seniors' cheerleaders were
definitely unique and contribu-
ted to the gaity of the after-
noon.

The sophomore class went to
great lengths organizing a pep
band, a card section, and a
marching squad. We do not
want praise, nor do the sen-
iors; however, we do feel that,
since the first hockey game is

a major part of Black Cat, there
is cause for us to wonder why
there was no more mention of
the activities of the afternoon.

We do not mean to say that
Black Cat should be anything
but the upperclassmen's rec-
ognition of the freshmen, nor
do we feel that anyone should
infringe upon the "moment that
should have been theirs."

However, we do feel the rep-
resentation of the rest of the
school should not be one-sided
or malicious.

"Mockings" this week was
certainly true to its title. The
sophomores appreciate Ra-
mona's acknowledgement of
their spirit, but we are deeply
concerned about her miscon-
strued idea of the motives be-
hind our enthusiasm.

Perhaps Ramona was so ex-
cited over the sister classes'
victories that she cannot re-
member what really happened
after the production.

Immediately following the
closing of the curtain, when all
the proceedings were finished,
there was an exceedingly long
and strained silence.

No one seemed to know how to
express her happiness and ap-

San Francisco

While most of you were at-
tending Black Cat weekend fes-
tivities, I was in San Francisco,
representing Agnes Scott at the
Associated Collegiate Press
Convention.

ACP is a press service and a
critical rating service which
functions on a national level.
Agnes Scott's newspaper and
yearbook have been members
of ACP for several years.

I've never seen a more dedi-
cated group. We had our fun at
night, of course, but during
meeting hours these college
students from all over the coun-
try and Canada were trying to
solve some of the problems that
plague school publications.

On a whole, the people I met
wanted to make college publica-
tions a more accessible and ef-
fective student voice. I found
this true of the big university
dailies as well as of the small
monthly papers.

I attended technical courses
dealing with typography and
makeup, a basic course in news-
paper policies and organiza-
tion, and an interesting course
on the college newspaper's vul-
nerability to libel.

To me, the very fact that our
publications often contain libel-
ous material is a good sign.
This means that we sometimes
get excited, at least.

All of us learned a lot, and it
was good to talk to people with
similar problems. If the PRO-
FILE seems a little more pro-
fessional m the future, it will
be because of that really en-
lightening convention.

Dr. McCain

I don't think many of us in the
student body really knew Dr.
McCain very well, and I don't
think we understand how deep-
ly his death has touched the
people who have been at Scott
for a long time.

preciation for such a success-
ful night. The sophomore class,
in a spontaneous reaction, broke
the silence and "stomped on
the floor."

The singing of our song was
not intended to overshadow the
freshmen's triumph, and we
sincerely apologize if this was
the appearance.

Maybe Ramona slipped out a
side door to met t Al Pope or
she would have seen the groups
of sophomore helpers, along
with the rest of the school, hug-
ging the freshman and offering
sincere, enthusiastic congratu-
lations.

Ramona also se-.ms to have
spent the night before Black Cat
entirely in Rebekah, or else she
would have noticed the furor on
the other side of campus where
the sophomores' rambunctious-
ness was exceeded only by that
of the freshmen.

The sophomores are indeed
a rowdy lot, but they were
warned in class meeting to try
to contain themselves this year
where the freshmen were con-
cerned.

However, when your class
made the valiant yet unsuccess-

This sensitive, intelligent
man led Scott for 28 years.
Just think how many friends he
must have made in that length
of time, and think how much
respect he commanded.

We all know, though, that he
was a happy man. Mrs. Byers
told me that he said once, "the
happiest day of my life will be
the day I die."

Letter

Last week I received a let-
ter to the editor which was un-
signed. It was about the war in
Viet Nam. If the writer would
assert herself and tell me who
she is, I will be glad to print
her "open letter," as she
calls it.

Heaven Bound

I hope a lot of you were able
to see "Heaven Bound" at Big
Bethel A. M. E. Church last
week. If you didn't, make plans
NOW to see it next fall. Each
year the members of this church
perform an original drama,

which is along the lines of a
medieval morality play.

For me "Heaven Bound"
puts Negro spirituals and fun-
damental Christianity in anew-
-and refreshing context*

Civil Rights

Christian Association is both
wise and brave to air the issue
of the tangible side of the Civil
Rights problem in Atlanta.

Their Tuesday chapel and
Wednesday panel, supervised
by Barbara Dowd, asked the
questions many of us may have
been afraid to ask. It's good
to see that CA is an active
rather than passive group, for
Christianity is or should be
an active religion.

Bookstore

I wonder if the campus book-
store could have a best-seller
shelf. If hardbacks wouldn't
sell, perhaps they could stock
the best sellers as soon as they
get into paperback editions. It
is becoming a pretty stuffy and
"Dryden the wool" place.

ful attempt to steal Popeye, we
may have lost our heads. It
was at this point we concluded
that you all had given up your
studying to join in the tradi-
tional pre-Black Cat chaos.

We are aware, Ramona, that
your article does not come un-
der the heading of news and,
therefore, has certain privi-
leges, and we normally appre-
ciate your subtle wit, but we
really felt the sting this time.

We also realize that you are
not alone in your ideas about
our class, and we are disturb-
ed.

Many have said that in deco-
rating the dorms we were again
trying to outdo the other class-
es - especially the freshmen.
Our motives were quite the op-
posite; in fact we were under
the impression, because of last
year's proceedings, that every
class was going to do thesama.

We did not know that the
freshmen had decided against
decorating all the dorms, and

we were glad that they did dec-
orate some areas.

It seems, Ramona, that a
large portion of the school feels
that the sophomores are trying
to be too involved in school af-
fairs and are becoming offi-
cious.

We assure you it is not our
intent to take command over
all projects whether they be in
Black Cat or in Rep Council.
We feel our ideas, organization,
and participation are gq^l, but
we realize our shortcomings
in presentation.

We would welcome any up-
perclassmen's help and ad-
vice, so that our enthusiasm
may not be misunderstood.

As for Black Cat, we were
merely trying to join in the
spirit of it in the only way we
knew how, and to show the
freshmen a side of campus life
we feel is important. We hoped
that the freshmen would share
our enthusiasm and perhaps

Visiting Professor Philip
Brings India Home To Scott

THE PROFILE

NOVEMBER 3, 1965

PAGE 3

by Justice Waldrop

Mrs. Aley T. Philip, of Kara-
la, India, visiting professor for
the fail quarter in political
science,;, has stimulated mach
inter^stun foreign affairs, par-
ticularly those of India.

A native Indian, Mrs. Philip
received the B.A. degree from
the Women's Christian College
in Madras, which she describes
as "very much like Agnes
Scott." She earned an M.A.
from a government college, the
Presidency College, also in
Madras.

Wife of an engineer who works
for the government-owned tele-
phone company in India, Mrs.
Philip is a lecturer in politi-
cal science of India by pro-
fession.

Karala itself poses many
pressing political and economi-
cal problems for India, and Mrs.
Philip has firsthand experience
with these.

Being extremely unstable po-
litically, Karala's government
has been Communistic from
time to time.

This political instability is
rooted in the division of Karala
into three comminities, the
Christians, the Hindu, and the
lower-class Hindu. It has been
under presidential control since
1964, but there will be an elec-
tion next year. "There is great
fear that Communism will come
back," explains Mrs. Philip.

Mrs. Philip is frequently ask-
ed about her Christian name.
Not only is she Christian, but
she is proud to explain that
Karala is a stronghold for
Christianity in India. In fact,
in 1952 her church celebrated
1900 years of existence. In
52 A.D. St. Thomas converted
some Hindus, thereby starting
a church which has grown ever
since.

MRS. ALEY THOMAS PHILIP, visiting instructor in political
science this quarter at Agnes Scott, is the woman we've seen
dressed in colorful saris. Here she glances over a newspaper
in her office.

There is no missionary in-
fluence in Karala; she herself
sends out missionaries.

The prevalent impression of
India Mrs. Philip has discov-
ered here, is naive. Some view
India as a place of snake charm-
ers and rope-trick players.

Concerning student interest,
Mrs. Philip observes that stu-
dents are interested "only to
a limited extent. There is not
the awareness here I find in
India.

Raymond Martin Plans
Organ Recital Friday

The organ recital given an-
nually for Agnes Scott by pro-
fessor Raymond Martin will be
given Friday, November 5, at
8:15 in Gaines Auditorium.

Mr. Martin has planned a var-
ied program ranging from pie-
ces by Bach to contemporary
compositions.

His program is as follows:
1. Grand Jeu by Nicholas Du-
Mage 2. Chorale - Preludes
from Clavierubung III by J. S.
Bach including "Kyrie, Gott
Vater in Ewigkeit," "Christe,
aller-Welt Trost," and "Kyrie

Gott, heiliger Geist".

3. Fugue in G (a la Gigue)
by J. S. Bach 4. Fantasia on
a theme of freswbaldy by Ger-
hard Krapf. 5. Le Jardin Sus-
pendu by Jehan Alain and 6.
Sonata on the Ninety-Fourth
Psalm by Julius Reubke.

His fourth selection, written
by an active recital ist known in
Europe and the United States,
is especially of interest be-
cause Mr. Martin's perfor-
mance of it will be its prem-
iere performance in this sec-
tion of the country.

Indian students are so invol-
ved, in fact, that they frequent-
ly participate in political move-
ments such as strikes. She
thinks this can be unhealthy,
since '^unscrupulous politi-
cians can exploit students."

Despite the fact that she is a
lecturer in political affairs of
India, Mrs. Philip notes that
she has not been asked by a
group, and rarely by individ-
uals, to talk on India's political
happenings. "It is very reveal-
ing," she comments. Very
few ask about the Pakistan poli-
cy," she said.

"I hope my coming here has
brought about good will and un-
derstanding, because that's why
I came," she commented./

"I don't know what I have
given," she mused, "but I'm
taking away good memories."

"MOCKINGS"

FROM

Dear Mom,

My old Rho Rho Rho friend
Wallace Kline took me toTech's
Homecoming. We couldn't make
the concert because I had two
tests Saturday. Come to think
of it, we didn't make much of
anything. I had a slight break-
down after my tests so I wasn't
quite ready when he came to
pick me up for the game.

Then he lost his way three
times before we made it to
College Avenue. Miss Wilburn
got a little excited as we sped
across the hockey field in his
sporty 1949 Dodge. Dr. Cal-
der was more than a little ex-
cited since we barely missed
him as he Honda-ed by.

The traffic was completely
thinned out on Ponce de Leon
and we were able to get a great
parking spot Rich's garage.
We made Grant Field by the be-
ginning of the fourth quarter,
but stopped to chat with one of
Wallace's friends who works at
the concession stand. He's
working his way through school
on a hotdog scholarship.

We finally got into the stad-
ium, but we had a little trouble
finding our seats. And we were
looking up at a plane with one
of those thrilling messages and
missed the last exciting play.
Did you know, Mom, that Mc-
Moyerinshy's Milk is homogen-
ized, pasturized, Grade A cer-
tified, and vitamin D fortified?
I'd be afraid to drink it.

My dream s of exciting Atlanta
night life really came true. We
went to a lovely place for din-
ner. The Varsity. I spilled a
chili dog down my dress so I
had to come back to school to

change. You guessed it, Mom;
that made us a bit late to the
party. Oh well, it was a fun
day, if not a punctual one.

A bunch of us went trick-
or-treating Sunday night. (The
original plan was to go Satur-
day night to avoid the rush, but
RRR thwarted that.) The high-
light was Dr. Alston's house. He
thought I was Mr. Rogers' lit-
tle girl. I later learned that
we were wearing identical witch
costumes. It was a successful
venture. My booty amounted to
13 apples, 27 candy bars, 8
packs of candy corn, and one
submarine sandwich.

I've decided the sophs are a
pretty good group after all.
They were terrific in their hoc-
key win over the seniors. And
I met Cindy Carroll and Betsy
White in the Hub the other day
and we had a great time.

I tried out for the College
Bowl team. I got off to a great
start by missing the first ques-
tion, "What's your name?"
Then they asked "Who said,
'Let them eat cakel'?" and my
finger got caught in the buzzer
and all I could think of was
Belle Miller. Cassandra, of
course, knew that Labuan is a
British island in the South
China Sea, that William Thom-
as Green Morton was an Ameri-
can dentist of the 19th century,
and that Thomas Wolfe said,
"In which she waits alone." So
I'm pouting again.

I really wish you could ar-
range for Butch to come see
me. See what you can do.

Love and kisses to all,
Ramona

Plans tor the March weekend
in New York have been announ-
ced. The College Bowl pays
the expenses for four people
and a coach for round-trip flight
to NYC, and they are present-

any Broadway production.

Sunday they will rehearse at

Students Must
Protect Right
Of Choice

Dear Editor,

It seems to me that in some
ways the problem of the restric-
tion of our activities because
of the limitations of time is
especially complex at Agnes
Scott.

In high school most of us had
time to do everything we really
wanted to do. All of us felt
there was time for what we
ought to do. By contrast, on a
large university campus, no
one has any illusion that a stu-
dent can participate in every-
thing that is planned for him.

A symphony concert, a polit-
ical lecture, and a sports event
might well be scheduled at the
same hour.

But here on our little campus,
although we frequently assert
that no one can do everything,
all our planning and advice seem
to declare that we expect every-
one to do everything, a la high
school.

A seminar cannot conflict
with hockey practice or glee
club. A student is urged with
equal solemnity to attend stu-
dent government chapel, her
classes, vespers, a lecture on

the theatre, and hall prayers
all in the same day.

Although none of these events
are scheduled at the same time,
it soon becomes obvious that
full participation would prevent
all study, participation in events
in Atlanta, social life, corre-
spondence, ironing, sleep and
thought.

Perhaps the most valuable
non-intellectual growth of my
college years has been the de-
velopment of choice fostered
by the conflict for my time of
many valuable and trivial activ-
ities. A person's real value
system is demonstrated in time
of such conflict.

I learned to distinguish be-
tween obligation to help as-
sure that there would be a good
crowd at an event and the deep-
er desire to attend because of
what I could gain as an individ-
ual.

I suppose I am an existential-
ist in believing that the second
reason is much more valid.
Poor attendance at college func-
tions sometimes reflects alack
of maturity on the part of the
students, but sometimes it
shows that the program is not
meeting a need, in which case
there is no sense in supporting
it.

As we grow in making choic-
es, our decisions are not al-
ways the wisest. Sometimes we
miss valuable experiences by
chatting with friends in the low-
er dining hall. Sometimes we
miss essential relaxation and
friendship by conscientiously
attending chapel.

But the process of learning
to choose is essential to be-
coming a "whole woman." We
students should not be too proud
to accept advice and guidance
as to what programs can be
valuable for us, but the ad-
ministration, and all the horde
of student planners, must re-
spect each individual's privi-
lege of choice.

Legitimate Theater

Municipal's "Salesman" Good,
Theme Hits Close To Home

The Municiple Theatre is now
presenting as part of its Fine
Play Season Arthur Miller's
"Death of a Salesman". "Death
of a Salesman" is a master-
piece with a timely theme.

Willy Lorn an , the protago-
nist, is a salesman straggling
against his own personality,
time payments, and the failures
of his sons, for a position of
honor a place among his
peers. Inwardly, he recognizes
his own failures as a sales-
man, but he hopes to be very
proud of the success of his
eldest son, Biff, who is an
athlete.

However, Biff fails to de-
velop into a self-reliant per-
son, and when he discovers
his father's infidelity to his

THE YOUNG Conservatives

visor during the coming year.

tions supporting the American
presence in Viet Nam. When
completed, these petitions will
be sent to the State Department.

by Jane D. Mahon

mother, he loses all faith in his
father ^nd himself.

As Willy Lorn an recognizes
that Biff has come to hate him,
all his hopes and dreams in life
and even his desire to live die.
His mind begins to fail, and he
gropes in the past for some hope
to which he can cling. His
thoughts personified as his lost
brother Ben yield no tangible
evidence that anything is left.
He was not honorable in the way
in which he carried out his job,
he instilled the wrong ideals in
his sons, and now as his house
is falling apart, he is about to
make the last payment on the
mortgage.

All the things modern man
strives for were never achiev-
ed by Willy Lorn an. His fail-
ure killed him.

How many times in our world
do men die because the tensions
of success become too great?

The MunicipleTheatre's pro-
duction of "Death of a Sales-
man" was utterly realistic.
The acting was magnificent.

We saw the inner struggles
of a man in search for him-
self brilliantly portrayed by
Howard Wierum as Willy and
Micheal Ebert as Biff.

Michael Ebert showed so well
that Biff was a person who could
not take the pressures of the
New York (or any city) rat
race. Howard Wie rum's por-
trayal of Willy was as real as
last month's rent.

Just as Willy was poignant so
was Happy, his younger son
played by Joel Fabiani, hate-
ful. As Willy pampered Biff, he
neglected Happy. And Happy
grew to be a conceited, arro-
gant playboy on $70 a week.
His reaching desperately for
the material things his father
never had to the exclusion of in-
ward development made him
dispicable. Joel Fabiani por-
trayed this well-known charac-
ter of our society extremely
well.

Every character in this play
is someone I have met before,
and its theme is a prominent
strain in American life.

However, none of these con-
clusions would have been so
clear to me had the perfor-
mance not been so brilliant. It
was a magnificent and reward-
ing experience.

"Death of a Salesman" will
play nightly at the Community
Playhouse through November 7.
There are special student mati-
nees each week Thursdays at
4:00 and Saturdays at 3:00.

Following "Death of a Sales-
man" the Municiple Theatre
will present 4 'Romeo and Jul-,
iet."

centers. One is at Capitol

The other is a Negro center

These centers are recrea-

building where the tutoring is
done. "So the tutoring is di-
vorced from the classroom,

Scotties tutor an hour each
week, and help with only one
child each. There are many
more children who need help
than are being tutored now.
More girls and more cars are
needed, since Scotties must
provide their own transporta-
tion this year.

The tutors use basal read-
ers, supplemented with word
games. This year they are
teaching third graders, most
of whom have a first-grade
reading level. With word games
and an encouraging attitude,
Scotties try to overcome the
children's disinterest. Al-
though the child comes because
he wants to, most of them are
not encouraged to read at home.

One of the worst problems is
the discontinuity of the attempt
to improve their reading. They

come back a week later, having
forgotten assignments; parents
do not encourage them, gen-
erally.

"We have more problem with
the white than the Negro child-
ren, " Carole comments. She
attributes this largely to the
economic stituation.

Although initially Scotties in-
terested in tutoring received
some brief instruction on teach-
ing reading, those interested in
helping out are welcome with-
out training. "I don't think you
can do any harm with the re-
tarded reader," said Carole.
"What they need is interest,
encouragement, and just some-
one who comes each week,
someone they can depend on."

Specifically, her lectures are
entitled 'The Preliminary Pub-
lic Meetings in the Forum on the
Capitoline and in the Circus
Flaminius" at Emory and
"Voting Methods and Places of
Assembly of Centuries and
Tribes' at Agnes Scott.

Although she is presently
Professor Emeritus of Latin
at Bryn Mawr College, where
she taught from 1927 to 1952,
Miss Taylor was also a pro-
fessor at Vassar College for
fifteen years.

Included among her unique
distinctions is Miss Taylor's
Gold Medal of the City of Rome
v/hich she received in 1962. She
is the only woman and the only
American to whom tiiis honor
has been awarded.

She is also the only woman
to have been appointed Sather
Professor of Classical Lit-
erature at the University of
California in the leeturship's
fifty year history.

Other honors which she has
received are honorary degrees
from the University of Wiscon-
sin, Wilson College, Mills Col-
lege, Columbia University and
Smith College.

Miss Taylor is the author of
four books and has a fifth ready
for the press. Those which
have already been printed are:
The Cults of Ostia (1912); The
Divinity of the Roman Empv -
or. (1931); Party Politics in the
Agu of Caesar (1949); and The
Voting Districts of the Roman
Republic (19601.

Mary Virginia Quattlebaum,
Deborah Ann Rosen, and Sarah
Smyth Uzzell are also named
to Who's Who.

The Who's Who Among Stu-
dents In American Universities
and Colleges organization is
now in its thirty-second year.
It publishes an annual directory
listing seniors who have "ser-
ved their class to an exceptio-
^\ degree" throughout their
years in college.

Twenty-three colleges in
Georgia have chapters of Who's
Who. Only students at four-
year degree granting institu-
tions are eligible for the honor.

Members of Agnes Scott's
senior class voted on their own
Who's Who members in a class
meeting early in Fall Quarter.
Their nominations were then
sent both to the national Who's
Who and to the Agnes Scott
administration to be approved.

GUEST EDITORIAL

Give-and-Take
In Car Problem

by Ann Glendenning
Chairman, Sophomore Car Committee

This year Representative Council is taking anew approach to the
old question of sophomore cars on campus. For several years the
idea has been to stress the number of available parking spaces and
the huge desire on the part of each sophomore class for their own
transportation. Now the emphasis is shifting to a more give-and-
take arrangement. The space and the desire are still there, but,
hopefully, a new and more effective solution has been found.

On Tuesday, November 2, Representative Council passed a rec-
ommendation to the Administrative Committee that our parking
problems be studied, current procedures be re-evaluated and the
necessary improvements be enforced. This will be done in a joint
student-faculty-administration committee, since all groups will be
ultimately involved. (The recommendation is now posted on the
Representative Council bulletin board.)

There has been some question as to why this seemingly indirect
approach is being taken. There are several reasons, not the least
of which are traffic jams and confusion. It was pointed out to mem-
bers of Representative Council that if currently available space was
used properly, there would probably be adequate room for addi-
tional cars. However, the parking situation needs to be examined
regardless of the possibility of additional cars.

In addition to these concrete reasons, there is also the simple
fact that if students show an active concern for campus problems
and a willingness to help alleviate them, the Administration will
see further requests in a new light. They will realize that we are
eager to deal on this give-and-take basis. As shown in the past,
joint discussions lead to a clearer understanding of each party's
position. For three years Representative Council has been fighting
the barrier of misconception of the car policy issue. This personal
appeal will undoubtedly prove more effective than words on a piece
of paper.

However, we are not lacking the necessary basic facts. There
are 364 parking spaces on campus, 205 of which are in constant
use. This leaves 159 available spaces. Fourteen sophomores
have said that they definitely could have a car spring quarter if
permitted by the college. If those people with cars parked in
their assigned areas and in the correct manner, much wasted
room could be conserved, and there would be no immediate need
for additional areas. Our campus is probably unique in its park-
ing regulations and enforcement. There virtually are none.

Through this recommendation Representative Council is hoping
to solve a current campus problem and, at the same time, open
possibilities for greater privileges for students.

Need We Boycott?

This week two distinguished lecturers will be speaking at
Agnes Scott and in the community. Their fields are the major
interests of somewhat less than a majority of students. How-
ever, we urge you to give some serious thought to attending
these lectures even if the subject matter is not your first pas-
sion.

We are not advocating sweeping, indiscrimant lecture atten-
dance at the expense of everything else, even at the expense of
study alone. But many Scott students allow themselves to fall
into the narrow trough of their likes and fail to see beyond their
special interests.

Lectures are an excellent time to learn from the experts, in
any and all fields. Speakers are brought at student expense,
with an eye to student likes, for student participation. Think it
over. Amaze your friends at the dinner table; lectures are your
chance to branch out intellectually.

JOHN CANADA Y. ART critic for the NEW YORK TIMES was
on campus part of last week lecturing on art. Here he con-
ducts an informal gallery discussion with students in Dana Fine
Arts Building.

Dr. Alston

Kim Chapin wrote a "profile" of Dr. Alston
in last Sunday's Journal-Constitution , and
brought out some interesting points.

Dr. Alston says in the article that he started
out to be a lawyer. "I sure didn't set out to
become a college president."

About being a minister he said, "I don't be-
long to the school of theological morticians.
I have always believed. . .been aware of a call-
ing. I will always be a minister."

He says that there is no phase of his job
as college president that he dislikes. "The
thing that appeals to me most is the close as-
sociation with people, both the faculty and the
students."

Do you know that he follows baseball and foot-
ball closely, is a frustrated golfer, and was a
better than average tennis player until a knee
injury 15 years ago?

President Alston says that Agnes Scott "isn't
the place for some girls, but if they want to do
serious academic work, this is the place," He
says this is true for three reasons: First, "this
school has high standards, and a girlcanmore
easily do that type of work if she's separated
from boys."

Second, "girls are more natural and freer to
develop where they are not in competition with
boys. And third, "in undergraduate life, extra-
curricular activities are important. . .where
girls can control these, they gain."

"Bo" Callaway

Congressman "Bo" Callaway who spoke to
us in convocation this week is Georgia's first
Republican congressman in 90 years. Atlanta
Times staff writer Ben Chester made the
following observations about Calloway in an
article published last November.

He is the father of five children, and his wife
attended Agnes Scott. His oldest daughter Betsy
is National Junior Girls Slalom Champion on
water skis.

Calloway graduated in the top 10 per cent in
his class at the U.S. Military Academy, and was
a six letter man in college. The Calloways have
a Great Dane that they call "the beast."

In his work as a congressman, Calloway is
concentrating on Georgia's Third District mili-
tary bases, Fort Benning and Robins AFB.
Calloways points out that because of these
bases he gets a larger share of veterans pro-
blems and federal employee problems thancon-
gressmen normally receive.

The Georgia Congressman's only political
objective is "simply to be the best congress-
man I know how to be."

Student Meeting

So far this year, attendance has been good
at Thursday student meetings, and nothing is
more encouraging to the members of student
government.

Keep this good attendance record up all
year long. You elected these people to work
for you, so at least acknowledge their work
when they come to you for approval and ad-
vice in student meetings.

Letters

Your letters to the editor prove that the
PROFILE is having a successful year, at
least in one respect. Many of you now realize-
that you have a place to air your views, on
campus, and that you CAN USE this place.

Nothing warms an editor's heart like a good
fight resulting from something he or sheprin-

Critic Canaday

I don't know about you, but I'm an inve-
terate name dropper. Here are some nifty
quotes that you can preface with "John Cana-
day said. . ." He made these remarks during
an informal gallery talk in Cana.

Pop art "is terribly old hat except for
people with established reputations in it." He
did find it, however, "a welcome change of
diet." What happened to pop art? "As usual
in New York, all the freaks came in."

By definition, he says pop art is a "move-
ment that sought its material in the crassest
vulgarities of commerical art." It is "anit-
esthetic."

Canaday calls op art "eye-dazzlers" or
"hard edge abstractions."

About abstract painting, the critic says it
is "j^je form of painting that is unique to
our day. . .It is good if you enjoy art for
art's sake, if your esthetic senses are re-
fined enough to enjoy just line and color."

His only complaint is that there are "too
few people who are enthusiastic about it, who
can tell the difference between what has
meaning and what doesn't." He says "any
great art is appreciable only on the abstract
level."

Canaday said about Henry Moore;s "Re-
clining Figures" at Lincoln Center for
the Performing Arts in New York
that it works very well in the spot, simply
because it has no subject; it is just natural
forms that look like great rocks hollowed out
by the water."

"Common people today don't need art;
it is for the esthetes," Canaday says. The
skyscraper is the twentieth century symbol
of our best in the arts.

About himself, "I am the most avant-
garde critic in New York." About critics
in general, "A good critic is someone you
agree with."

And finally, he says "the most encourag-
ing thing about art today is that everything
is going on at once."

TOLERANCE

by Grace Winn

Perhaps there are two possible approaches
to life. One I shall call conviction. Conviction
can be associated with the concept of faith. It
is definitely choosing one thing over another,
saying "no" to some alternatives and "yes"
to others.

It is willingness to uphold the decision once
made in the face of all odds. When carried to
extremes it means close-mindedness, intoler-
ance, and inability to learn or grow.

The other approach I shall call tolerance, a
specialized form of love. Tolerance can grow
out of a respect for every individual's ability
to find the truth for himself or out of disbelief
in the finality of any human conclusion.

Tolerance refuses to condemn anyone as to-
tally bad or mistaken, any ideas as completely
false. Tolerance can lead to perpetual uncer-
tainty, hesitation, and stagnation.

Our age with its moral relativism, ecumeni-
cal movement, search for universal peace, as-
sertion of equality, and existentialist philoso-
phy places supreme value on the attitude of
tolerance.

Conviction is admired almost exclusively in
leaders of these various phases of the move-
ment toward tolerance. We criticize Luther,
laugh gently at St. Joan, and feel slightly
contemptuous of the crusaders. It is not the
fashion to be certain.

Will the pendulum swing now in the direction
of conviction, or are we part of a steady move-
ment toward tolerance?

FROM THE ED/TOR

ELEVENTH HOUR

I hoped I wouldn't have to say this. I told
myself that this was a problem which, left
alone, would work itself out. But I got too
fired up at the collegiate press convention
to keep quiet any longer, and your gratifying
letters to the editor make me think that you
might listen.

Students of Agnes Scott, the simple fact is
this: My staff and I cannot continue to give
you a newspaper every week if you don't
help. And you aren't helping. I know you
aren't helping because I can count the number
of people on my staff on the fingers of one hand.

I suppose that there are lots of reasons why
you don't work on the newspaper staff. You
aren't interested in journalism; you don't know
anything about it; it isn't as satisfying to grind
out a news story as it is to create a poem or
a sketch for AURORA; you can't spare the
time.

But I WILL NOT believe that all but four or
five of you don't give a damn whether your
newspaper is good or bad. I cannot conceive
of your being willing to read (or not read) a
second rate PROFILE every week.

There are literally scores of small jobs
that, while utterly inconsequential in them-
selves, MUST be done each and every week if

the PROFILE is going to be a good paper.
Five people cannot handle all these jobs and
handle them well. It takes a machine. I want
to make the PROFILE what I promised you
last spring I would make in. But it is a cold
hard fact of journalism that I cannot do it un-
less I have a staff large enough to mold into
an efficient news-gathering machine.

It may seem no you that I'm making prepos-
terous demands. The opposite is true. You
are making preposterous demands on my staff
and on me. The members of a small staff
have a hard, boring, thankless job, to say
nothing about what happens to grades. On
the other hand the members of a large, well-
organized staff have small assignments and
have a chance to choose their own fields
to cover.

Okay, that's the sales pitch, take it or leave
it. You'll keep on getting some sort of
PROFILE every week, whatever you think of
this editorial.

Freshmen aren't eligible for the staff until
winter quarter. We meet in the Pub at 6:30
Monday evenings. I can't offer you glory or
money, and I can't even guarantee you a byline.

We want very much to be a good newspaper.
We can't do it alone. So think it over. . .

Liverpool Boasts Beatles
History Professor Brown

by Virginia Russell

Noticed any Agnes Scott pro-
fessors sporting British ac-
cents? Actually, none of them
do. Dr. Michael Brown, how-
ever, is at least from England.
In fact, he is not only from
England, but from Liverpool as
well.

He did start out with an ac-
cent, but has lost most of it
somewhere between Liverpool
and Atlanta. "One reason why I
lost it so quickly was that I was
never in one place long enough
for it to get set."

When he was about seven the
Second World War started and
his parents moved to North
Wales until it was over. Back
in Liverpool, he graduated from
high school, first going to work,
and then joining the British
Army.

In 1952, he was offered a
scholarship for study in the
United States. "The thought of
coming here had never crossed
my mind until somebody asked
if I wanted to." He had always
wanted to teach, and this oppor-
tunity opened up the possibility.

He received his B.A. from
LaG range College, and his M.A.
and Ph.D. from Emory. While
in graduate school he "wand-
ered around" teaching.

For a short time he was at
Davidson. Then he came to Scott
and while here taught summer
school at Emory. For three
years he taught at LaGrange,
and the University of Alabama
summer school.

He is married to an Atlanta
girl whom he met in college, and
they have three children. Ac-
cording to him, his wife's ac-
cent has also helped to neutra-
lize his.

Although seventeenth century
English history is his special
ty, he also builds model ships
and wields a mean tennis rac-
ket. Look out for him on the
tennis courts and elsewhere-
he doesn't even look half-way
lost without his accent.

MR. 3ROV/N, inEVv / DlaYION to the history department, here
pauses mid-lecture to illustrate his point with a m?p.

Misconceptions Exploded

The Peace Corps, like many other governmental organi-
zations, is plagued by a "knowledge problem." Many people,,
including a large number of college students, don't know what
the Peace Corps is all about.

The misconceptions cover almost every phase of Peace Corps
activity, but the truth about the work is simple and less men-
acing than most suppose. Here are the most commonly offered
objections to joining the Peace Corps:
I don't speak a foreign language.

Although some knowledge of Spanish or French is desirable,
it is by no means necessary. The Peace Corps teaches you
what lingual skills you'll need.

I don't want to live alone in some remote jungle town.

Don't. You can still join. Volunteers are placed in pairs,
unless they want to be alone. Many work in cities, where they
sometimes live better than they did at home. The mudhut image
is just that , real to only a few.

You never hear from the Peace Corps after you apply.

Often a request, sent in, for example, in March, that in-
dicates you'll be ready in November is put aside while more ur-
gent requests for June, July or August - are processed. In any
event, you'll get a note within a month telling you what's being
done.

66'ers Thank
Sisters For
Investiture

Dear Editor,

One of the most meaningful
aspects of Investiture Weekend
this year was the spontaneous
participation and kindness of
our sister class. The flag in
the Hub, campus - wide decora-
tions, assistance in the Investi-
ture services were important
parts of this. However, it was
the personal warmth of the
sophomore class which made
this week - end particularly
memorable. Thank you, sopho-
mores.

Seniors

have sat down and really thought
about what is happening?

It seems so far away, and'
yet, it will probably touch each
and every one of us in some
way. We must be prepared to
face what is coming or what has
already come to some of us.
We must prepare ourselves to
do without our men, to be able
to support ourselves, possibly
for the rest of our lives. These
are dark and somber times for
all of us. They will not go
away.

We cannot be a generation of
happy, devil-may-care school-
girls. We must become women
before our time. I am not a
member of one of those organi-
zations recently in the head-
lines, nor am I a traitor to my
country. I am a mere woman,
an average student at Scott, who
asks you to recognize what is
going on today, to face it, and to
learn to live with it before it is
too late.

Don't laugh about this war, or
push it out of your minds be-
cause it is on the other side of
the world. The other side of
the world is as near as the lo-
cal draft board. Let us support
our boys in Viet Nam. Let us
pray to God that this war will
soon be over, and that our boys
will come back to us alive.

SHIP OF FOOLS

Porter Novel Becomes
More Vivid On Film

by Poppy Wilson

If a trip into a world border-
ing on the allegorical intrigues
you, book several hours passage
on "Ship of Fools".

Although the script writers
seem to have heaped on "mean-
ing" in Brobdingnagian pro-
portions, a sufficient wisp of a
good tale remains. It certain-
ly cannot be denied that Kathe-
rine Anne Porter herself gave
the characters and happenings
more than a surface value.

Yet in the expanse of her
book, she could afford the time
an d space for a great degree of
subtlety, which the movie
couldn't and doesn't .

But the film is the real med-
ium of sight, and because of this
can present scenes even more
vividly than did the writer; we
actually see the steamy throngs
of people in steerage, and the
pathetic delight that is theirs
when they are squirted down with
hoses for sanitary conditions.

We see too ex-baseball-play-
er-turned-lush Lee Marvin,
bending over backwards to ogle
his dancing partner. I'm con-
vinced that that is verbally
indescribable. I am just as con-
vinced that no words can match
the visible spontaneity of Vivian
Leigh, when she, having become
rather tipsy at the ship party,
suddenly breaks into a vigor-
ous Charleston almost as an
afterthought.

Elements of melodrama are
prevalent; no one denies this,
even the characters, one of
whom admits that the band mus-
ic is pure "schmalz"; (the
music endures, however, for it
is at that time necessary for
an outpouring of the heart from
another character).

But the melodrama is good,
and long live it. It is never

really cloying, simply because
of the variety of the scenes,
and the different symptoms of
each bloc of characters.

I thought the acting, by the
way, was remarkably good; Jose
Ferrer's portrayal of the lech-
erous bigot is especially not-
able.

Perhaps the most exciting
thing in the movie is the de-
velopment of the relationship
between the exiled drug taker,
"La Condesa", and the ship
Doctor, Schumann, played re-
spectively by Simone Signoret
and Oskar Werner.

There is an unconventional
tenderness in the scenes be-
tween them, made wistful by
the vague awareness that in
spite of its intensity, their love
is only temporary, as is the
voyage.

Many of the facts have been
altered on the way from the
book to the movie, as will be ap-
parent to those who have read
it. There is no need to list
the departures from the book to
those who haven't read it. Per-
haps after seeing the movie,
they will want to.

Pi Alpha Phi Prepares For
Second Debate Tournament

The Agnes Scott Pi Alpha
Phi Debate Society is prepar-
ing to attend their second tour-
nament of the season November
19-20 at the University of Geor-
gia. This tournament is for no-
vices only, that is for those stu-
dents who are in their first year
of college debating.

Many colleges and universi-
ties, primarily from the South
will be represented. The sub-
ject will be the National Inter-
collegiate Debate Topic, Re-
solved: That law enforcement
agencies in the United States
should be given greater free-
dom in the investigation and
prosecution of crime.

Pi Alpha Phi has just re-
turned from the Peachtree In-
vitational Tournament at Emory
University November4,5, and 6.
It was open not only for novices,
but also for varsity switch-
sides competition. (A switch-
sides team has two men and has
to alternately debate the nega-
tive and the affirmative sides
of the question.)

Agnes Scott entered a four-
man team, with Susan Smith and
Mary Bush as affirmative and
Louise Hess and Candy Walden
as negative. These girls repre-
sented Scott extremely well and
made an excellent showing, es-
pecially since this was not only
their first college competition,
but also the only competitive de-
bating they had ever done. The
record for the affirmative team
was two win-four loss and that
for the negative four win-two
loss.

Several Scotties were on hand
to enjoy the "scenery" at
Emory and to help the Barke-
ley Forum by serving as time-
keepers during various rounds.
Not only were they an asset
much - appreciated by Emory
and other schools; they also had
the pleasure of hearing some of
the finest debating in the coun-
try and meeting people from as
far away as Arizona, Annapo-
lis, Dartmouth, U.N.C., and Mi-
ami.

In the novice division the top
honors went to Georgia, Bir-

Play Day Set; Swim Meet

The Hockey Play Day will be
held this Saturday morning, No-
vember 13, with teams from
Furman University, Judson
College and Winthrop College
will be traveling to Agnes Scott
to compete in two games each.

If this season's games are
indicative of the ability of the
ASC team, a very exciting
tournament should be in store
for all teams Saturday.

Registration begins at 9:30
Saturday morning. The first
game, in which Furman will
play Judson, is scheduled for
10:30 a.m. At 11:30 Agnes
Scott will play Winthrop.

After a lunch break, the win-
ners will challenge one another
and the losers will be set against
one another. Gail Livingston,
hockey manager, planned the
play day. She looks for an ex-
citing day. A cabin party is
planned for after the game.

Players outstanding in pre-
vious games Lucy Rose,

Alice Davidson, Linda Cooper,

Gail Livingston, Joan Kiker

will be among those playing in
what should be a fine exhibi-
tion of hockey.

The swimming meet, pre-
viously scheduled for Novem-
ber 9, has been rescheduled for
Tuesday, November 16. Racing
events are freestyle, breast
stroke, backstroke, individual

medly and several relays.

The tragic underwater dis-
tance swim has been omitted
this year. The Americancrawl,
backstroke, breast stroke, and
side stroke form competition
will be held. Diving competition
is the loveliest event and will
feature Lynne Anthony, last
year's winner.

Because of the narrow margin
of victory (class of '67 over
class of '68 ) in last year's
meet, managers Grace Brewer
and Lynne Anthony expect close
races this year.

Freshmen managers Mattie
Lee Sayrs and Cheryl Phillips
anticipate a good performance
by the freshmen. This campus
event-like those meets of pre-
vious years will be a spirited
one.

The A. A. Pumpkin shoot was
held October 26. Junior Janice
Ford placed first and sopho-
more transfer Elizabeth Cooper
placed second.

A Hub party and sweatshirt
sale is scheduled for Wednes-
day, November 17. Doughnuts
will be sold to be eaten with
free hot chocolate. Long and
short sleeved sweatshirts have
been ordered in Navy blue, bur-
gundy, and yellow.

A new "must" is an ASC
nightie. They come in red and
light blue and will make grand
Christmas presents.

If you are looking for some-
thing different arid exciting, the
INFERNO is for you.

The Inferno has something
for everyone. Art, music, the
dance, poetry, and drama are
all a part of the Inferno.

It will feature an art gal-
lery with paintings for sale and
for rental. If your money is
short this week, lay- away and
time payments can be easily ar-
ranged for paintings.

If you would like to be im-
mortalized, you can have a stu-
dent artist draw your portrait.

There will be continual en-
tertainment. Among the per-
formers will be dance group,
folk singers, pianists, and
Blackfriars players.

The faculty is participating
also. Mrs. Pepperdene will
read Irish Lyrical Ballads and
Mr. Jack Nelson will read poe-
try.

Folk Mass

Christian Association will
present in its November 15
chapel an American folk mass.
Presenting this mass will be
Sara Boyd and Dee Brannen, al-
ready known for their perform-
ance in Black Cat. The songs
in the mass are taken from a
record of the American folk
mass.

The purpose behind this ser-
vice is to show that secular mu-
sic and words can be used for
worship purposes. Christian
Association is not trying to say
that this is the form which
should be used for worship. It
is simply a demonstration of a
new way to express worship and
praise to God.

ber 11, in Maclean Auditorium.
The subject of his lecture will
be "Knowledge and Develop-
ment." He will also be here for
lunch on Thursday.

This lecture is a real op-
portunity for everyone interest-
ed in the social sciences, for
Dr. Boulding is qualified to
speak on almost any subject
in the field. His publications
range from The Meaning of the
Twentieth Century to Disarma-
ment and the Economy .

Dr. Boulding is from the Uni-
versity of Michigan where he
is Professor of Economics.

After Dr. Boulding leaves our
campus Thursday, he will be
going to Miami where he is to
be the feature speaker at the
Southern Economics Associa-
tion.

The Economics Department
urges everyone to take this op-
portunity to hear Dr. Boulding.

School Paper Door To Professional Journalism

EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the
second in a series of articles
about job opportunities. Today's
article deals with the field of
communications.

From the small town daily
to the vast complex of the New
York Times , the smell of ink,
the writing of copy, the fever
of getting the paper to press
may be just the experience to
suit your temperament and tal-
ents.

Without doubt what first oc-
curs to mind when one men-
tions newspaper work, is of
course, reporting. Although the
glamor of the reporter seems
to have fallen in favor in the
fifties, we note with interest
that it is definitely showing a
comeback.

We find that companies are
demanding more and more that
their writers have good report-

ing background for writing as-
signments.

We note that reporting skills
can be useful for newspaper,
public relations and abstracting
work, as well as serving as
good in-training for any future
writing activity.

Journalism courses and work
on the school paper are the most
direct means of becoming are-
porter. If you really want to
write news stories, then bur-
row your way into any news-
paper office that you can and
drive the editor mad until he
gives you assignments.

Getting out and tracking a
story is the best way to learn.

Other jobs on newspapers
range from artist, production
assistant, copy editor, special
features editor, advertising
space salesman, classified ad
taker, and circulation promo-

tion to secretary, gal Friday
and the myriad of administra-
tive and clerical jobs that it
takes to keep the paper going.

Newspapers probably offer
one of the most exciting em-
ployment possibilities for the
creative individual. Not only
are there opportunities for re-
porting, but the advertising and
promotion departments con-
stantly need talent to write
copy.

The art department calls for
an artist with a good eye for
graphics. And since news-
papers are more and more de-
veloping a community-center-
ed approach, the need for spec-
ial interest articles is con-
stantly growing.

BUT BE WARNEDI Unlike
the book publishing or even the

magazine publishing field, the
better jobs on newspapers are
available with the small town
dailies, rather than with the
large metropolitan papers.

Everybody flocks to the big
city directly after graduating tc
find that special job on none
other than THE NEW YORK
TIMES.

The number ot neophyte re-
porters hired each year, es-
pecially women, is infinitesi-
mally small compared with the
number who apply each year.
It is best, therefore, to take
your training where you can
find it.

And if you must come
to the metropolis, come pre-
pared with one or two years of
solid reporting and writing ex-
perience.

INVESTITURE WEEKEND 1965

SPIRITS (BUNNY FOSTER), muses (Suzanne Mallory,right), and
eagles combined to make the Senior skit presented Friday morn-
ing hilarious.

HUDDLED ALL AROUND the campus this weekend were groups
such as this, composed of parents of Seniors who came to attend
Investitute weekend.

JAN GASKELL, F^ITHFUl. student, is threatened by en appari-
tion as she bends industriously over a pile of books; this was a
scene in Friday's Senior skit, which also featured a full-scale
rhythm band and well-coordinated chorus of poetry readers.

SATURDAY MORNING BROUGHT all the investiture traditions
back to campus; here Debbie Potts (right) and Bunny Foster (cen-
ter) lead a group of Seniors through the double line of Sophomores
dressed in white.

CAPPED .AND SMILING, the Seniors rang out "God of the Marching
Centuries"; as parents, friends, fiancees , and students looked on.

HAVING MARCH ED THROUGH the Sophomore ranks, the Seniors
filed into the first rows of the auditorium to await the message of
the Investiture speaker Dr. Theodore Greene. Caps in hand, they
anticipate the capping ceremony which will follow.

La Pin Reports From Paris
On Junior Year Abroad

(Deidre LaPin of Arlington
Heights, Illinois, is spending
her junior y?ar in Paris. Her
account oi her adventures so far
follows.)

Although we were one hun-
dred and seven "Sveet
Breears" who hustled off the
Queen Elizabeth into the fine
cool mist of a mid-September
day, each felt far more like a
Julius Caesar conquering again
the unknown land of the Gaulois.
But unlike our predecessor, we
peered through the soupy gray
at an architecture inspired by
the indisputable talent of a high-
ly aesthetic and cultured peo-
ple, but original in a most out-
landish way; not even the most
unimpressed of our members
could dismiss with his usual
overt nonchalance the fact that
we had reached the shores of a
country not only decidedly un-
American, but slightly anti- at
that.

The historical illusions sub-
sided quickly, however, as our
howling stomachs dissolved
"veni, vidi, vinci" into a re-
sounding cry for food: five days
of British cuisine on shipboard
had appeased any reservations
we may have had about crack-
ing the language barrier; but
helasl the hunger pangs were
not to subside for two weeks
more, though only for that ear-
ly hour of the day when our rug-
ged American bodies were
nourished only by cafe au iait,
either liquid from the cup or
soggily gracing a generous slice
of French grilled bread.

However, the near absence of
breakfast was easily rectified
by the delicious cuisine served
throughout the day, though
frog's legs and snails rarely
made it to the table, nor French
dressing or French vanilla ice
cream; frites (French fries)
came through as a national fav-
orite in grant style, the oppo-
site of everyone's guess.

During our first six weeks
at Tours where we were to at-
tend classes at the Institut Etab-
li pour apprendre le francais
aux etrangers , cracking thelan-
guage barrier didn't appear ex-
tremely difficult. Those wor-
risome indicator at crossroads
told us cordially to "STOP,"
or that "PARKING" was al-
lowed, perhaps for the whole
"WEEKEND." Tuxedos, or
"SMOKING" could be cleaned
at a "LAVOMATIC;" and the
two biggest dance rages are
surprisingly not the discothe-
que, but the "MONKEY" and

the "JERK" with a "COM-
BO."

Fraglais could take us but a
small part of the way in learning
this beautiful but complex and
highly inflected language, but
luckily, our errors are less
noticeable in Paris, where even
the grave grammatical faults
are currently overlooked in fav-
or of an English correspon-
dent. The concierge, less au
courrant than some of the more
fashionable members of Paris
society, has proved to be the
best critic of our French next
to Larouse, of course!

Tours, a city of nearly 90,000
inhabitants, is situated in cen-
tral-west France, the seat of
the chateau country and the
beautiful Loire. And although
the natives batted their eyes
dazedly when I questioned them
about Charles Martel and bat-
tle of Tours (They reminded
one that the site of that great-
est example of French courage
is situated between Tours and
the city of Poitiers; but since
it is three kilometers closer

to Poitiers that city won the
ensuing battle of Names) the
region still boasts many fine
tales of history.

We visited the Abbey of Mar-
in outier founded by the kindly
Saint Martin, who, according to
legend, cut his coat in half to
aid a poo r beggar. The ancient
edifice now houses a Catholic
school for girls, and we were
cordially conducted through
some of the oldest buildings
dating from the 11th and 12th
centuries by a tiny, crumpled
gnome-like person, vivacious
and energetic despite her near-
ly eighty years; she immense-
ly enjoyed reading every plaque
out loud for the "jeunes filles
anglaises" who, though we in-
sisted to the contrary, were
decidedly unable to read
French.

Close to the abbey, burrowed
into a cliff over-looking the
Loire, were located the origi-
nal grottos of the first mis-
sionaries of the region, who, we
were surprised to find, includ-
ed Saint Patrick, the patron

Research Grants
For Undergrads

AUSTIN, Texas (CPS)-- The
University of Texas Student As-

a plan to grant research funds
to undergraduate students.

if the plan passes, an under-
graduate will be able to apply to
an assembly committee for up
to $100 to help sponsor a pro-
ject. The research would not
have to be connected with any
course work.

This program is thought to
be the first of its kind involving
a student government and one of
the first involving research
funds for undergraduates.

"MOCKINGS
FROM
RAMON A

Dear Mom,

This weekend was Investi-
ture. 1 was totally impressed.
Things began Friday morning
not with a whimper but a bang.
The superb acting was a just
counterpart to a literary tri-
umph. Following in the tradi-
tion of the masterful Greeks,
the seniors indeed "saw life
steadily and saw it whole."

It was terrific seeing all the
families around. Friday night
the Dining Hall was packed, so
I grabbed the first available
seat. It just happened to be
between Felicia Guest and her
mother. That proved one of my
most exciting adventures so far.
Felicia has the neatest sister,
too. Meeting all these seniors'
parents, I understand better why
they are like they are.

The ceremony Saturday was
especially impressive. I wonder
if I'll ever get to wear a black
robe and trip across the stage.
At this rate I may never get
to wear a white dress.

I've gotten terribly involved
lately with m y C. A. service pro-
ject. I was assigned a Girl Scout
Troop in Marietta, so I had a
slight transportation problem.
Actually I made it out all right,
but on the way back my bike
had a flat on the freeway. How-
ever, a kind Army sargeant
offered to help out. I had a little
trouble explaining to the D.O.
why I returned in an Army Jeep
with four G.I.'s.

The main problem was that 1
went out on the wrong day. So
I returned the next afternoon.
Luckily, Felicia let me borrow
her car for the second run.
It's the nicest troop. Those
83 girls are the cutest I've
ever seen. We spent the first
hour discussing various ways
to raise money to buy uniforms,
and had about decided on dough-
nut sales and a floating crap
game, when someone just
happened to mention that they
already had uniforms.

The only real accomplish-
ment of the afternoon was an
exciting game we palyed. You
fold your arms and hop on one
foot, bumping into people. The
object is to knock down as many
people as possible. Fortunately
the troop had a First Aid
course last year.

Cassandra is involved, too.
Last week she went to the
forum on involvement, mainly
to meet her friends. I don't
care what she does, but I do get
tired of stepping on SNCC but-
tons every time I cross the
room. She's on four com-
mitteess, two boards, and three
executive councils. I don't know
how she does all that and still
keeps her grades so high. She's
just a little more organized than
I am. That's the basic difference
between us. Well, that's one
basic difference.

They've changed my student
aid activity from sweeping out
the Buttrick elevator. They
thought I was ready for bigger
and better things. They were
wrong. I've been put on the
switchboard and I think I'm do-
ing rather well. I was on for
an hour yesterday and directed
only 10 calls for the Hub to
Dean Kline and disconnected
only 50 others.

Remember those tests? Weft*
I didn't do too well on them, to
say the least. I was walking
tli rough the mail room today,
contemplating transferring to
Bug Hill Junior College, but
fortunately I ran into Mr. Brown
and he brightened up my whole-
day.

Kisses,
Ramona

Symroski Studies Oysters
In Summer Research Work

Some of you may have seen
the article about Barbie Sym-
roski in The Atlanta Constitu-
tion, entitled "Agnes Scott's Her
College, Marine World Her
Oyster." If not, and even if so,
you will be interested to know
some of the student aspects of
her summer.

Barbie was on a ten week pro-
gram sponsored by the National

by Sharon La

Science Foundation and station-
ed in Virginia near Newport
News. There were ten students
in the program, six men and
four women. The purpose was
not so much to perform but to
learn about research and to dis-
cover if this could be what these
students wished to do after
graduation.

Canaday Sees Artist
As Displaced Person

(EDITOR'S NOTE: John
Canaday, art critic for the New
York Times, was on campus
recently. He lectured and led
informal discussions at Scott.

PROFILE Junior Editor
Diane Dixon reviews Canaday's
formal lecture, which was pre-
sented October 28 in Gaines.)

Mr. Canaday's evening lec-
ture Thursday, October 28,
was entitled, 'The Artist, the
Critic, and the Public." He
announced his own subtitle for
the lecture as "How did Art
get that way and can anything
be done about it?"

The artist (painters and
sculptors), Mr. Canaday said,
is a "displaced person today."
Because there was no photo-
graphy, he was needed long ago.
"Today the artist works to
satisfy himself and he hopes to
interest and please others."

Mr. Canaday also discussed
the role of the dealer in today's
art. Art shows today, he as-
serts, are "artificial affairs."
The dealers are most often very
talented observers, yet it is still
their business to sell a work of
art.

It is usually up to the deal-
er to decide whose work he is
^oing to exhibit. The dealer
must always face the problem
of fashion, novelty, and the cre-
ation of a demand for art.

The critic, Mr. Canaday says,
is "an evaluator" and a "so-
cial commentator." It is the
critic's function to serve as a
middle man between the dealer
and the public.

Mr. Canaday described crit-
icism as "a kind of conversa-
tion' 1 between the critic and the

public. Thus, criticism is no
good unless it is read as such.

Pop art and Op art Mr. Can-
aday named as promising move-
ments. However, they receiv-
ed too much publicity before
they had a chance to prove
themselves and mature.

Mr. Canaday proposed that
one of the best things for art
today would be its decentraliza-
tion. "New York is so subject
to commercial pressures that
it eats an artist up."

He says that artists and ex-
hibitors should stop trying to
imitate New York. Also he en-
courages more patronage of
local artists.

Mr. Canaday concluded by
naming what he considers as
the great arts today: abstract
sculpture and modern archi-
tecture. He praised the movies
and jazz as the two best spon-
taneous arts today.

In this program Barbie learn-
ed what scientific research was
really like and that it took pa-
tience and creativity. Barbie's
research included growing three
groups of oyster larvae and
studying their reactions to com-
plete darkness, total light, an d
regularly alternated darkness
and light.

Unfortunately, all but a few
of the "guinea pig" larvae
died. Barbie found that the
water in which the oysters were
growing was contaminated by
dinoflagellates (one - celled
plants) that gave off a toxic
substance which destroyed the
oysters.

At the end of the ten week
period, Barbie's sponsor in-
vited her to stay for another
week to work on some other
phases of oyster research.Then
a really exciting event occur-
red. She was asked to work on
a research vessel which was to
be anchored in the James Riv-
er for four and a half days in
order to collect oyster larvae
and to study the relationships
between the distribution of the
larvae and the environmental
factors which oysters require.

The reason for this research
lies in the tentative plans of

Richmond, Va. to deepen the
James River so that Richmond
can become a commercial sea-
port. Oysters are a major in-
dustry of this area, and the of-
ficials of the city want to deter-
mine whether deepening the
river will affect the oysters
or not.

Those on the vessel did var-
ious experiments, and it was
Barbie's function to determine
the oxygen content of the water
at different levels in the James
River. During the four and a
half days, research went on day
and night, but Barbie and anoth-
er girl spent the first two
nights on land.

Then on the third day Barbie
volunteered to remain on the
ship all night to help with the
work. Her offer was accepted,
and she did not leave the boat
for two and a half daysl This
was the first time that a woman
had become a real crew member
on a research project such as
this.

Barbie stresses what a won-
derful chance this National
Science Foundation program is
for anyone of any college age
with a genuine interest in ma-
rine biology. She points out,
too, that it is the best way to
learn whether you want to do
research work or not.

Multiple Choice Tests
Penalize Depth, Subtlety

Hushing, N.Y.- (I. P.)-' Mul-
tiple-choice tests corrupt edu-
cation," declares Dr. Banesh
Hoffman, professor of Mathe-
matics at Queens College. Au-
thor of 'The Tyranny of Test-
ing" charges that multiple-
choice tests use ambiguity as a
substitute for genuine difficul-
ty and foster intellectual dis-
honesty.

"They favor quick-witted su-
perficiality while penalizing
depth, subtlety, and creativi-
ty," Professor Hoffman as-
serts.

Dr. Hoffman has been three
times a member of the Insti-
tute for Advanced Study. An
expert on relativity theory, he
collaborated with Einstein and
Infled on a classic research
paper, and has written more
than 70 articles on the subject.
In the field of testing, he has
been consultant to the Westing-
house Science Talent Search for
the past twenty years.

Dr. Hoffman disputes the

claim of test makers that they
are scientists. He calls their
statistical methods "inherent-
ly misleading." He recom-
mends that a distinguished com-
mittee of inquiry be establish-
ed to act in the public inter-
est in examining the whole mat-
ter of testing in education. In
recent months, Dr. Hoffmanhas
discussed the attempts of Edu-
cational Testing Service to de-
fend against challenges to its
sample questions.

BLACKFRIARS PRESENTS
LORCA, PERYALIS PLAYS

On Friday and Saturday, No-
vember 19 and 20 at 8:15 p.m.
Blackfriars will present Fede-
rica Garcia Lorca's The Love
of Don Perlimp lin and Belisa
i n the Garden and Notis Per-
yalis' Masks of Angels in the
Dana Fine Arts Building Thea
tre.

The cast of characters for
The Love of Don Perlim plin
and Belisa in the Garden is
Herman Humer as Don Per-
lumplin, Ayse Ilgaz as Belisa,
Dianne Gray as Morcalfa, An-
gela/ Saad as Mother of Belisa,
Frances Foreman as the First
Sprite, and Grace Winn as the
Second Sprite.

The cast of Characters for
Masks of Angels, which will be
presented second, is Malie Bru-
ton as Margo, Stuart Culpepper
as Petro, Herman Flaschka as
Dimitris, Margaret Peyton as
Marcia, Blair Louise Major
as The Girl, and Steve Harding
as The Man.

Federica Garcia Lorca is the
great Spanish poet and play-
wright. He died in the Spanish
Civil War in 1936. He is pop-
ular for the genius of his poems
and plays, but he is best known
for his play House of Bernan-
da Alba .

The Love of Don Perlimplin
and Belisa in the Garden is
concentrated and intense. It
illustrates Lorca's gift for
weaving fanatsy with brevity and
swiftness. He tells the story of
an old man married to a young
and faithless girl whose soul is
awakened by his sacrifice and
death.

Notis Peryalis is a contem-
porary Greek playwright. He
is best known in the United
States for the film ''He Who
Must Die! 1

As Robert W. Corrigan points
out, Peralyis, out of deep com-
passion for all earth's crea-
tures "believes that man, in
the midst of squalor, pain, and

death is capable of putting on
the masks of angels."

In M a sks_of Angels Peryalis
shows two peopie as they strug-
gle to accept themselves, their
unhappy past, and each other.
Moreover, the author affirms
his belief in the power of art to
reveal man to himself, and he

expresses his faith in man's ca-
pacity to be redeemed.

The chairman and co-chair-
man of the production comTiit-
tees are Mary Helen Goodloe,
Stage Manager; Blair Louise
Major and Bennett Rowan, Cos-
tumes; Sally Barr, Lights; Mar-
garet Peyton and Kathy Arnold,

Blackfriar Name
Has Long History

by Frances Foreman

"At a regular meeting of the
Dramatic Club Thursday even-
ing, the name Blackfriars was
adopted as official title by prac-
tically unanimous vote of the
members."

Blackfriars still meets on
Thursdays, but this particular
meeting was held fifty years
ago. According to the report
on page one, Vol. 1, No.l of
THE AGONISTIC (forerunner
'of THE PROFILE), February
11, 1916: "The Dramatic Club
was organized at Agnes Scott
at the beginning of the first
semester".

It had a "nucleus of four-
teen charter members, in-
cluding Jeannette Victor, Pre-
sident; Louise Ware, Vice Pre-
sident; Mary Ellen Harvey, Se-
cretary; Lois Eve, Treasurer;
Vallie Young While, Property
Manager; and Gjertrud Amund-
sen, Stage Director."

The purpose of Blackfriars
continues to be, as was stated
then, "to present to the public
the best possible dramatic pro-
ductions." True to form, "The
Kleptomaniac" was the 1916
premier performance for the
Blackfriars.

Blackfriars had been preced-
ed by two societies the
Propyleans, and the Mnem osy-
neans who took turns present-

ing plays at Commencement.
The theater in those days was
under the big oak tree on the
President's lawn (now Gaines
Cottage). This practice was
discontinued, however, as the
uncertainty of the weather did
nothing to combat the general
uncertainty of an opening night.

Then, until Presser Hall was
completed in 1940, Blackfriars
productions were staged inwhat
was then the chapel and is now
foundly known as Rebekah Rec.
Room and later in the Gym.

Today, firmly established in
their new theater in the Dana
Fine Arts Building, and about
to premier with Ma sks of An-
gels and The Love of Don
JPe rl im pi in_ and _ Be lis a in the
Garden . Blackfriars are happy
to recall those words, printed
so long ago in the 1916 AGO-
NISTIC: "To be known as a
Blackfriar has always been
equivalent to a passport in full
to the world of Drama."

Make-up; Jean Jarrett, Prop-
erties; Malinda Snow, Scenery;
Katherine Bell, Sound; Frances
Foreman; Publicity; Julie
Zachowski and Sue Dixon, Pro-
grams; Miss Elvena Green,
Business Advisor.

The plays will be presented
in the new Dana Fine Arts Build-
ing Theatre. Due to the size of
the theatre, all seats are re-
served, and an tickets are
$1.25. Miss Green adivses,
'The sooner you buy your tic-
ket; the better your seat will
be."

This year Blackfriars is
celebrating its golden anniver-
sary. Before the plays begin

Lily Ross Taylor
Speaks On
Roman Voting

Lily Ross Taylor, scholar of
Roman history, will lecture at
Agnes Scott Thursday, Novem-
ber 18, at 8:15 p.m. Her lec-
ture is entitled "Voting Methods
and Places of Assembly of Cen-
turies and Tribes."

This lecture is one in a ser-
ies of lectures under the title
of "The Assemblies of the Lat-
er Roman Republic in their
Roman Setting."

Miss Taylor also lectured at
Emory University this week;
there she spoke on "The Pre-
liminary Public Meetings in the
Forum on the Capitoline and in

Berkeley Department Head
Spends Week At Scott

Agnes Scott will be honored
in serving as host to Dr. Ar-
turo Torres-Rioseco for the
week of November 29 to De-
cember 3. Dr. Torres-Rioseco
is professor and chairman of the
department of Spanish and Por-
tuguese at the University of
California, Berkeley. He will be
visiting under the program of
visiting scholars of the Uni-
versity Center in Georgia.

Dr. Torres-Rioseco is one of
the leading scholars in the field
of Latin American literature.
He was born in Talca and edu-
cated in Chile and the United
States. In 1930, he received his
Ph. D. from the University of
Minnesota and has taught at
Berkeley since 1926.

As visiting professor he has
lectured at such institutions as
the University of Mexico, Co-

by Louise Bruechert

lumbia, Stanford, Duke, Guate-
mala, New Mexico, and Bryn
Mawr College. He has been on
the faculty of the summer school
at Guadalajara, Mexico, which
is connected with Berkeley and
the University of Arizona.

Nancy Whiteside, a Scott sen-
ior and president of the Spa-
nish Club, studied under Dr.
Torres-Rioseco while in Gua-
dalajara. Her opinion of him as
a lecturer is very high and what
impresses her most is his man-
nerly and gentleman-like per-
sonality.

Dr. Torres-Rioseco is an
experienced editor and contri-
butor to books, some of which
include Revista d e Estudios
Hispanlco and Revista Jberg-
americana .

His Epic of Latin Ame rican
Literature is, according to Mrs.

Dunstan, head of the Spanish de-
partment at Scott, "one of the
most popular and brilliant in-
terpretations of both currents
and phenomena of Hispanic let-
ters."

While Dr. Torres-Rioseco is
at Agnes Scott, members of the
Spanish Club will act as hs
hostesses. From here he will
lecture at various member-
institutions of the University
Center:

His lecture at Scott will be
held on November 29 at 8 p.m.
in Maclean. The topic will be,
"La novela hispanoamericana
contemporanea," or The Con-
temporary Latin American No-
veL Following the talk will be
a reception in Rebekah Scott
Hall.

HEW Impressive

Honor Emphasis Week this year was most impressive. Instead
of merely concentrating upon our inner circle here on campus
HEW brought a reassessment of the world we live in.

It touched the outlook of our age as reflected in the neat produc-
tion we saw of Samuel Beckett's Endgame. . It also included the
complex problem of integrity in politics both national and inter-
national.

The informal discussions by faculty members were both en-
lightening and very enjoyable.

Of course, we cannot think about honor without considering
Scott's honor. However, this year we have placed Scott's honor
in the context of the world of which Agnes Scott is a part.

Report On Desegregation

This fall the Southern Regional Council, located in Atlanta,
Georgia, published a report entitled "School Desegregation:
Old Problems Under A New Law." It is the opinion of these
writers that school desegregation is taking place at a much slower
rate than has been publicized. The following are some of their
findings and opinions on this issue.

After the 1964 Civil Rights Act it was hoped that a larger
portion of the nearly 98% of Southern Negro children still attend-
ing segregated schools wouldgain admission to intergrated classes.

However, before the 1965 school session the burden of ini-
tiatine suits rested almost entirely on the individual Negro.

Private organizations for this advancement had limited sources,
and they found the prospect of going into all school districts and
the mounting costs were frustrating their efforts.

Moreover, the United States Office of Education which is now
obligated to solve the problems of desegregation was acting
feebly. For instance, at the beginning of the school year when
accurate school population figures were needed to judge the
success of the law, no private or government agency knew the
rate of desegregation.

The SRC therefore compiled data on this subject which
subsequently varied greatly with the estimates published by the
Office of Education on October 1. For instance, the Office of
Education estimates that 216,000 Negroes-7.5% of the South's
Negro pupils-are attending classes with white students. There
is every indication that this figure is high.

The SRC's figures differ from this total by over 60,000.
In fact, these figures indicate that only 5.2% of Negro pupils
are attending white classes. Only in South Carolina and Miss-
issippi do the two agencies figures come even close to agreeing.

The importance of this is that in the absence of current in-
formation, optimistic reports were given on the rate of desegre-
gation. The truth is that nearly 95% of the South's Negro pupils
are still in segregated schools. Evasion has continued under
the Civil Right Act.

What's more, some Negroes have been intimidated and pres-
sured when Negro children tried to enter white schools. In
some instances the names and addresses of Negroes applying
for transfer to white schools were published, there by inviting
intimidation.

It would be foolhardy to blame any individual or agency
for this slow progress. The Office of Education official is con-
fronted with many problems, such as the working conditions of
a bureacracy, a small budget, and few staffers. And it is im-
portant to remember the policy stated in the Office of Edu-
cation's guidelines that "the responsibility to eliminate segre-
gation rests with the school authorities and is not satisfied by
rules and practices which shift the burden of removing dis-
crimination to the class or classes of persons previously dis-
criminated against.

Imagery, Simplicity Give
Strength To Claudel Play

Tuesday, November 11, Agnes
Scott and the Alliance Francaise
d'Atlanta presented Paul Clau-
del's mystery play, L' Announce
Faite'a Marie . It was perform-
ed by the internationlly famous
Treteau de Paris, the same
group which performed 1'
Alouette at Agnes Scott in 1964".

The Treteau de Paris was
formed in 1961 by Jean de Ri-
gault. The actors and actresses,
as well as the directors and
designers of the Treteau. re-
present the outstanding ability
of almost every contemporary
theater of Paris. The Treteau
is brought to the United States
under the auspices of L* As-
sociation Francaise de' Action
Republique of the Government
of the French Republique.

The play has eight actors,
among whom is France Descaut,
who plays the part of Violaine.
Mile. Descaut is also known
for her roles in Le M^entendu
by Albert Camus, La Reine
Moj by Henri de Monther-
lant, and Le Cid by Corneille.

The part of Jacques Hury is
played by Daniel Gall who is
also known for his roles in
Horace and Cinna by Corneille,
Tartuffe by Moliere, and Shake-
speare's King Le fl r-

Paul Descombes plays Pierre
de Craon, the leper who is mir-
aculously and symbolically cur-
ed by Violaine's kiss M. Des-

by Lucy Scoville

combes has played in Horac e
by Corneille, The Taming of th e
Shrew by Shakespeare, and L'
Otage, also by Claudel.

Finally, M. Jean Davy por-
trays Anne Vercors, the father
of Violaine. M. Davy is per-
haps the best known 0 f the ac-
tors of L'Annonce Faite _Ma-
(per-

rie. He is a "societaire'

manent member) of La Come-
die-Francaise.

L'Annonce Faite a Mar ie was
written by Paul Claudel inl 9 12,
and has been acclaimed as his
poetic masterpiece. M. Claudel
has the high distinction of being
a member of L'Academic Fran-
caise.

The play was presented in
French. The artistic excellence
of the play itself, and the dra-
matic excellence of the actors
are evident in their portrayals
of the different roles.

The power of the play con-
sists in its poetry, its, sym-
bolism, and Its simplicity.
Coupled with the incomparably
fine and clear delivery by the
actors, the language, in itself
poetically beautiful, is rendered
even more moving.

The play is filled with sym-
bolism and rich imagery; in
fact, there is little inl' Annonc e
Faite a 1 Marie which is not
symbolic. Claudel makes use of
these simple medieval folk to
give expression to a mystical

Sunday evening, November 21
at 7:30 p.m. a special service
of the Holy Communion will
be presented at All Saints' Epis-
copal Church, North Avenue
and West Peachtree.

"Bread, Wine and Blues,"
The Service of Holy Communion
To A Jazz Beat, will be on ex-
periment in the question of whe-
ther or not 20th century popu-
lar music can be a fit vehicle

This Mass will try to de-
monstrate that our Christian

jazz as well as in "traditional"
music.

Using selected music from
the Hymnal, the choir and con-
gregation will sing familiar

In addition, there will be
times during the service when

conditions in Cuba under both
Batista and Castro before he
left in 1960. He felt that after
the first few months of Castro's
regime conditions in Cuba be-
came much worse than they had
been under Batista.

Under Batista there were po-
litical restrictions, but the Cu-
bans had economic freedom.
When Castro took over he seized
all of the land. Although he pled-
ged to give it to the peasants,
the land has remained in go-
vernment hands.

Arturo described Castro as
being "very Castroite" or in
other words, he likes himself
very much. His rallies are fil-
led with Communist agents who
report those who do not respond
favorably to his speeches.

Because of the restrictions
and uncertainties inside Cuba,
Arturo did not believe that the
Cubans there could overthrow
the government.

However, he believed that
organizations, such as the Uni-
ted Nations or the Organiza-
tion of American States are al-
so unorganized to do much good.

He said that even if the Cu-
bans should become free, they
would need an indoctrination
period under a country such
as the U.S. to give them an idea
of what government really is.

Otherwise, Arturo believes
the Cubans would never be able
to keep the Communist out.

experience. The monastery' of
Montsanvierge is everywhere
present in the story, imbuing
the lives of these people with
a sense of the presence of some-
thing beyond the human, beyond
the explicable.

This incarnation of the divine
is revealed to be Violaine, who
is also called the "sacrificial"
lamb", Justice, and is the "Ma-
rie" to whom the tidings are
brought.

Finally, it is the inherent
simplicity of the play which
brings out most clearly the
richness of its language and
theme. The plot is uncomplex;
there is almost no real action
in the play. The scenery and
costumes remain the same
throughout. The power comes
as a result of these charac-
ters' confrontation with each
other and most especially with
Violaine and her effect on them.

Her embodiment of the divine
reaches out, touches and trans-
forms every other character in
the play. It is only by this
absolute lack of any artifice,
any detailed plot structure, or
any real action that the mys-
tical and mysterious experience
is effectively conveyed.

M. Claudel has said: "The
actor is an artist and not a
critic. His goal is not to make
a text understood, but to make
a character come alive. He
must, therefore, so completely
penetrate into the spirit and
the feeling of the role he plays,
that his language on the stage
seems to be nothing more than
the natural expression of that
character."

Of all the characters, M. Jean
Davy exemplifies this most
clearly when, in the first act,
Anne (Jean Davy) tells his wife
( Alice Reichen) that he must
go as a pilgrim to Jerusalem.
He resists all temptations and
entreaties to remain. Yet, as
he speaks to his wife of his
unwavering determination to set
out, his hands are on her shoul-
ders, and he caresses her lov-
ingly and with a depth of feel-
ing seldom reached on the stage.

Agnes Scott was truly honored
to have had the privilege of
seeing this chef-d'oeuvre pre-
sented by the masters of the
trade.

Glick Home Survives
Eta Sigma Phi Assault

The home of Miss Kathryn
Glick was recently subjected to
considerable wear and tear
when Eta Sigma Phi members,
the Classics faculty, and
friends of Miss Glick gathered
there for (what all hope will
become) the annual Eta Sigma
Phi picnic

While the spectacle of Miss
Zenn playing Frisbee with Mrs.
Young's husband, Dr. Young
(who is a history professor at
Emory), was exciting, and the
hamburgers ably grilled by
Sarah Uzzell were memorable,
the feature attraction was un-
doubtedly Miss Glick's yard-
full of Cairn Terriers.

Eta Sigma Phi members are
also looking forward to Feb-
ruary when they will be the

guests of Dr. and Mrs. Young
at their home, and the offi-
cers are plotting the siege of
Miss Zenn's stronghold as well.

Shows Films
On Cambodia

Dr. Charles H. Wharton, ver-
tebrate zoologist at Georgia
State College, will present his
own films concerning the wild
cattle of Cambodia at the Bio-
logy Seminar, December 2.

Dr. Wharton was born in
Minnesota, but of a heritage of
the western Carolina moun-
tains. He holds the bachelor's
degree from Emory, an M.S.
degree from Cornell, and the
Ph.D. from the University of
Florida. He has served in num-
erous capacities as consultant
and explorer for the U.S. gov-
ernment in its international en-
deavors in cattle and diseases
associated with cattle.

Dr. Wharton prepared this
motion pictures study of native
cattle while a participant in an
expedition in Southeast Asia in
1951-1952 under auspices of the
Coolidge Foundation. He had
done animal collecting earlier
in the south Phillipine, and
brought living collections of re-
mote and little known birds,
reptiles, and primates to the
U.S.

In addition to his work in re-
mote regions of Southeast Asia,
his zoological activities have
taken him to remote areas of
South America and Africa.

The film and commentary is
open to the public in room 207,
Campbell Hall at 4:30 p.m.

Scott took the ideal, added its
own implications, and now
boasts of the largest program of
its kind.

The student - alumnae pro-
gram of Agnes Scott plays an
effective role in the complete
orientation and introduction of
the freshman into the college
life. "There is no yardstick to
measure the value of the alum-
nae to the college, for what
the college put into us, we re-
flect in our own individual
lives," commented Miss Ann
Worthy Johnson, director of the
Agnes Scott Student-Alumnae
Program.

"This program offers the
alumnae the opportunity to know
Agnes Scott as it is today,
while affording the f reshm an the
chance to know an Agnes Scott
alumna, which she will become
one day."

"This is by no means an
idea that the alumnae become
local parents," cautioned Miss
Johnson, "but rather an occas-
sion for each freshman girl to

have contact with the greater
Atlanta area and the Atlanta
alumnae. Through the program
girls attend concerts, go on
shopping outings, enjoy an oc-
cassional meal in Atlanta, while
at the same time helping to se-
cure the ties between the
alumnae and Agnes Scott. This
is not an entertainment pro-
gram, but one which strengthens
the alumna-student bonds."

Working closely with Dean
Scandrett and Molly Merrick,
the alumnae - student program
continually works to improve.
At the end of the year, both
the alumnae and the students
submit a quick evaluation of
the program, pointing out its
merits and offering suggestions
for betterment.

NO PROBLEM FOR SCOTT

by Linda MarKS

Last Friday's hockey game
between freshmen and sopho-
mores and between juniors and
seniors postponed because of
rain and re-scheduled for Fri-
ay, November 19 has been the
topic of much speculation
around the campus.

The following responses to

Mrs. Robert H. Ott, alumnae
chairman of the anniversary
celebration, and Alice Airth,
president of Blackfriars, will
publically recognize the begin-
ning of the anniversary cele-
bration.

According to Miss Jerry
Rentz of the Speech and Drama
Department, 'The four sets of
the Lorcaplay are highly styliz-
ed, and the set of Masks of An-
gels is expressionistic. The
scene changes will take place in
view of the audience as this
follows the general style of the
production."

Miss Rentz states that the
lighting is especially interest-
ing since it assumes unusual
angles in both plays. She also
points out that the lighting is
particularly important in Masks

were gathered by A.A.'s roving
reporter.

NANCY BRUCE: "Well , I
think the seniors will win theirs
because, in addition to my pre-
judices, of their superiority on
the field. The sophs will win
theirs because they are our sis-
ter class. . . . and they're pretty
good.

IDA COPENHAVER: "I think
the sophomores and seniors will
win because they have the more
athletic classes."

BETSY JONES: "I predict
that the freshmen will run all
over the sophs in one way or
another because we have fresh
talent such as W inky (Wooten),
Sally (Rayburn), Julie (Link),
and Windy (Lundy). The juniors
are gonna' beat because the
seniors are BEAT." (From
graduate records, no doubtl)

PEGGY MOORE: "The sophs
will beat the freshmen because
I'll be cheering for them. The
seniors will probably win, too,
because I'll probably give a
cheer or two for them."

Student Guesses

JOAN KIKER: "I'll let you
know as soon as I dream."

TINA BENDER: "Oh, the
freshmen will beat the sopho-
mores without a doubt. At least
the freshmen will score. . .de-
finitely score."

ANN WILDER: "I pass."

SUSAN LANDRUM: "All

sophomores will win the game
over the freshmen. . . .might

And in reference to the senior
vs. junior game: "the best game

I recently attended a con-
ference at which student go-
vernment leaders from eigh-
teen Georgia schools were pre-
sent. One of the things 1 dis-
covered in talking with them
was that our student government
has a tremendous advantage
over most others: the size of
college renders communication
theoretically "no problem." I
began to wonder whether we,
the student government, and
you, the students, are benefit-
ing from the relative ease with
which we can let each other
know what we are doing. Speak-
ing as a representative, I think
that lack of communication (both
ways, although perhaps a little
more on the part of the student
body at large) causes a lot of
valuable energy to be wasted.

Rep Council is yours: you

elected us all to represent you,
and there is nothing we'd rather
do. But we can (and sometimes
are forced to ) talk for hours
without knowing exactly what it
is that you, the students, want.
We are less effective than we
could be when we do not have
your constructive suggestions-
and your gripes.

Yes, it's possible that we
aren't doing enough to com-
municate our ideas, plans and
actions to you. And it is our job
to initiate the two-way commu-
nication. In next week's

Christmas Program

Agnes Scott Dance Group will
present a Christmas program
for the student body on Friday,
December 3 at 10:30 in Gaines.
The title of the presentation
is "The Joy of Christmas".

Students Hold

Bleed-In In

Viet Support

A "bleed-in" was held at the
University of Georgia Monday
and Tuesday of this week. The
drive was sponsored by the "Is-
aacs Movement" to "show sup-
port for the United States' poli-
cy in Viet Nam."

A "bleed-in" is a dem-
onstration in which the parti-
cipants donate blood through the
Red Cross for American sold-
iers in Viet Nam.

The sponsoring organization
is named for Capt. Royall G.
Isaacs of Texas who was kill-
ed in Viet Nam fighting last
year.

According to Terry Wood-
ward, one of the organization's
leaders, the primary purpose
of the movement is "to erase
the stigma attached to college
students and to show the sold-
iers in Viet Nam that the peo-
ple of the United States are be-
hind them."

"The theme of the program
is based on different movements
that are expressive of joy",
states Miss Dotson, sponsor of
the Dance Group The dance is
composed of several sections,
each of which is reflective of
some aspect of joy, "all re-
lative to the Christmas sea-
son, to the Christ, that he is
the source of all our joy".

"Certain sections have cer-
tain theme movements" which
are characteristic and are re-
peated throughout. Some of
these movements will be seen
in other sections with new ones
being added. This repetition
gives a sense of unity to the
several views of joy. The last
section which is entitled *'The
Mass," composed of stylized
movements, forms the climax
in the realization of the source
of joy. The music that will be
used is a collection of trumpet
tunes by Purcell.

This quarter the practice
sessions of the Dance Group
have been open to anyone who
wishes to come and watch or
to dance with the group. The
practice sessions are on Tues-
day, Wednesday, and Thursday
afternoons. Tryouts will be held
winter quarter for interested
freshmen and upperclassmen.

The officers of the Dance
Group for this year are Debbie
Potts, president; Bobbie Tram-
mell, secretary; Mary Barnett,
treasurer; Conya Cooper, pub-
licity; Candy Walden, costume
wardrobe mistress; and Bobbie
Trammell, representative to
Arts Council.

Debaters Place Sixth In Tourney

Agnes Scott Novice Debate-
Team was represented at the

The debate topic was Resolv-
ed: Law enforcement agencies
in the United States should be
given greater freedom in inves-
tigation and prosecution of
crime.

Carol and Louise who took the
negative position won four out

of six debates and ranked sixth
place overall in the tournament.
Susan and Mary who repre-
sented the affirmative team won
three and lost three. Susan said
that she and Mary presented a
trick case and "were highly
complimented on it." The team
was very satisfied with the re-
sults, says Susan.

Ellen Hines, a former Agnes
Scott student and now practic-
ing attorney for Southern Bell
in Atlanta, went along to ad-
vise and act as chaperon as Dr.

Hayes was unable to attend the
tournament.

There were twenty - two
schools represented at the tour-
nament. Some of the schools the
Agnes Scott Team debated in-
cluded Vanderbilt, Tul a ne, Uni-
versity of Georgia, Davidson
and Morehead. Emory walked a-
way with all the speaker awards
and also was acknowledged as
the best four-man team. More-
head won the best Negative team
and Auburn the best Affir-
mative.

ON VIET NAM

Students at the University of Georgia have taken a significant
step forward in holding their "bleed-in." One of its organizers
stated that among his motivations was the fact the "the morale
of the fighting American in Viet Nam is being lowered" by
protests at home. Well, it's about time someone took action in
support of the United States position.

We are engaged in a full war in Viet Nam; we are increasingly
involved. Our military presence is not only justified, but in-
evitable. It is both necessary and morally right.

It is necessary, of course, because if South Viet Nam falls
, to the Communists, so doubtless will fall most of Southeast
Asia. This has been the Soviet strategy in the past and it will
remain their method in the future.

It is morally right because the United States is the actual,
if not always acknowledged, leader of the free world; as such
we must protect those countries who wish to be part of that
world. This has long been our policy and it is the reason we
first entered Southeast Asia. It was an extension of our action
elsewhere. If we had fought Communist aggression in Korea,
if we had fought it in Greece, we had to fight it in Asia.

The United States is not forcing freedom on the people of
South Viet Nam. Their dedication and fervor in this fight testi-
fies that liberty is their desire also. We do not want to make
South Viet Nam like the United States; we only want her to have
the opportunity and freedom to decide her own fate. What is
important is that the Vietnamese govern their country as they
freely choose, not that they accept any imposed standard, in-
cluding that of American democracy.

The war in South Viet Nam, furthermore, cannot be properly
viewed as a political issue; it must be seen rather as a national
one. The present situation has developed under both Democrats
and Republicans and now needs non-partisan support of United
States citizens.

We believe the protesters represent the minority. And too
long has this minority isolationists, true pacifists, and plain
draft-dodgers been the loudest voice. This is the time for sup-
port of American action in South Viet Nam. Everything has been
against us, but we are at last winning. It is a long prospect.
We have to combat difficulties ranging from Tolstoy's
theory of history to the actual ill-fated experience of the French
in Southeast Asia. Even the most optimistic predict a minimum
of five years needed to win. But we can win, and indeed we must.
We need not be "Remember the Maine" flag-wavers to realize
that ours is a double responsibility: first, to give the South
Vietnamese people the freedom they want and for which they
fight; second, to maintain the freedom we have always valued
above all else and for which we have always fought, for ourselves
and for others.

Our national purpose, past and present was best articulated in
recent years by John F. Kennedy, dead two years this week,
who reminded us that we must be "unwilling to witness or per-
mit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation
has always been committed and to which we are committed today
at home and around the world."

Sunday Is Dead

On November 7, only 50 people signed out on the lists to go to
Sunday night church. A probable 25 others signed out on slips
to go to church with dates. This total represents approximately
10 per cent of the college community, which means that 90 per
cent of Agnes Scott students are not going to church Sunday
nights, and many are on campus.

We are not saying whether this is the way it ought to be. The
problem is that this situation exists, and we are ignoring it.
For instance, even with the great majority of students remaining
on campus Sunday night, nothing can be scheduled at this time
because we are operating under the assumption that everybody
is at church. This assumption is false.

The objection to Sunday night meetings cannot be because Sun-
day is a holy day. Many activities, such as Athletic Association's
tour of Atlanta and the recent Christian Association discussion
groups, have been on Sunday afternoon. However, even activi-
ties that are planned to be scheduled after most people have re-
turned from church on Sunday night are forbidden.

Even the Library which is open every other night is closed.
Because Monday classes must be prepared for, this is one of
the times when we need the Library most. The number of people
who study in Buttrick Hall Sunday night is evidence that people
are looking for a place to study. If the Library must be closed
one night of the week, it would seem much more logical to close
It on Saturday night when most of the campus actually is gone.

A policy that is based on the activities of only 10 per cent of the
students does not seem sensible. We are simply closing our
eyes to the real situation. Last year's extension of Sunday night
late time limit was a step in the right direction.

If there are moral objections to scheduling activities at cer-
tain times on Sunday, this is understandable. But if the only
reason for not scheduling events and s : opening buildings on Sunday
nighcis because it is assumed that everyone is at church, the facts
need to be re-examined.

QUESTIONNAIRES

j

Many thanks to the 125 of you who returned
the PROFILE questionnaires. Replies ranged
from "we laud and magnify ' thy holy name"
to "open your eyes". And then some.

Editorials and features were substantial
leaders in the category of stories you like
best. You like college press releases and
sports stories least. You would like to see
more reviews and features, and a lot of you
want less press service stories.

These results are pretty much as we ex-
pected them to be, but the number of you who
say you don't like the news from other schools
is a little disappointing. We feel that the
PROFILE has a real responsibility, when space
allows, to print the news of other schools. A
small college newspaper should try to present
its news in perspective, and we select our
press service releases accordingly. They
aren't just fillers; they're carefully chosen to
broaden our horizons a little. We aren't the
only college with opinions on pep pills, on Viet
Nam, and on a hundred other topics.

Ramona walked away with the "favorite
specific story" trophy. It was a landslide
triumph. By the way, Ramona just didn't have
time to write a letter last week. You know how
that story goes. . .

We received some good specific suggestions
on topics to cover, and will try to work up
some stories from them. Thanks again for
your replies.

Random comments: "Incite us to riot."
"Satirize!" "Cater to the diversity of the
student body not primarily to the Gung-Ho."
"Perhaps a column of what's going on at other
schools." "BE BROADMINDED." "Cover
events on other campuses in Atlanta." "Please
don't let Ramona turn sweet."

OBSERVATORY

Ever notice how many upperclassmen have
never been to the observatory, and how many
people graduate or transfer from Scott without
ever having seen the place? Scott and UNC
are, to our knowledge, the only Southern schools
that have - observatories, and it is deplorable
that so few of us will even bother to walk across
the street to use it.

Sometime, when you feel like you can't take
another paragraph in a textbook, go up to Bradly
Observatory. There's nothing more refreshing
than a good long look at Saturn's rings, or a
slow scanning of the face of the moon. And
nothing can give you a real sense of perspec-
tive faster than staring at another galaxy.
Think about that. Another galaxy.

The Observatory is usually open three or
four nights a week from shortly after sunset
until 8:30 or 9 p.m. If the lights along the path
are on, the Observatory is open. The arabs
would understand what we're trying to say.
They pray that they "may never forget the
uses of the stars."

ELECTIONS

Mortar Board and Rep Council have begun
to tackle Scott's most hideous Gordian Knot,
our elections proceedures. This issue is
many-sided, to put it mildly, and is certain-
ly one of our most pressing problems. Give
any suggestions you have about revamping our
proceedures to a Mortar Board member or to
your Rep Council representative. They need
all the help they can get.

Editorial

Dining Hall Investigation

There has been concern among some stu-
dents recently over certain aspects of the din-
ing hall. This concern seems to center in two
regions: the personnel and the food itself.
I met with Mr. Rogers, Mr. Mann, who is dis-
trict manager and temporary manager at Ag-
nes Scott and Mr. Kuneyl, treasurer of Cam-
pus Chefs, to get some idea of what is hap-
pening.

As to the personnel, students seem con-
cerned mainly about the lack of familiar
faces among the staff. There are two dif-
ferent reasons for these vacancies. At the
end of last year each employee was given the
opportunity to join Campus Chiefs at no sal-
ary reduction or other loss. Many accepted.

This year, there was a worker surplus
which had nothing to do with either the old
or new management. For pure economic
reasons these obviously had to be discharged.
To do otherwise would be poor business prac-
tice.

Soon after school started there was an un-
fortunate incident among some of the older
staff members and the management, which
resulted in the resignation of several em-
ployees. Since that time the management has
been completely changed and both Mr. Rogers
and the new supervisor have gone to these
people and invited them to return. There has
been no response.

One ex-staffer still fias a paycheck due.
When she comes to pick it up, she will again

be offered the chance to return to Campus
Chefs.

A business such as Campus Chefs must be
practical, To beg someone to return to work
as a personal favor would be untenable in any
business, especially one still trying to estab-
lish itself.

As to the matter of food, all three men
agreed that they had heard virtually no com-
plaints about the food. It is impossible to
correct deficiencies if the caterers don't rea-
lize they exist. Some things, like a tea-bag
shortage, are obvious, but a supervisor who
doesn't eat every meal at Scott can't be aware
of egg-shells in the scrambled eggs, etc.

If you think there has been a surplus of pork
lately, they want you to tell them, not com-
plain among your'friends. If you want hard-
boiled eggs for breakfast, tell them.

Mr. Rogers has promised to put up a larg-
er suggestion box complete with paper and
pencil for this purpose. Rep council has a
member especially assigned to the dining hall
problems. Both of these channels must be
used to be effective.

We personally feel that the treatment of the
personnel problem has been more than fair.
We will reserve judgment of the food situation
until we can see the results of what we hope
will be increased communication between
those who eat the food and those who serve it.

Sentiment
Dangerous

In Viet War

Dear Editor,

In regard to the recent letter
to the Editor:

The sentiments expressed
are commendable, but using
pure sentimentality as the only
context for an evaluation of a
critical issue is dangerous.

The regard for U.S. mili-
tary men fighting in Viet Nam I
presume to be shared by most
of us. And I have not met a
student who is of the opinion
that the Vietnamese situation
is removed and faraway with no
bearing on our individual lives.
As for the devil - may - care
schoolgirl image, I can only
suppose that such an image is
now as it always has been, a
myth.

I would present a different
framework of reasoning. It
seems to me that whatever
conclusion the individual rea-
ches concerning this complex
issue should be the result of a
careful analysis beginning at
this point.

First, the freedom to dissent
is the requirement of our de-
mocracy. It is not patriotism
to blindly espouse your coun-
try's cause in its every conflict,
nor is it traitorous to take is-
sue with foreign policy by means
of peaceful demonstration* One
may occasionally question the
timeliness or taste evidenced in
some protests, but not therighc
of the participating persons to
so express themselves. It is
ominous to hear those of the
consensus opinion automatical-
ly call into question the motives
and integrity of the vocal mi-
nority. There is nothing in-
herently unpatriotic in a citi-
zen's disapproval of his coun-
try's policies, nor is there any-
thing meritorious in the self-
proclaimed patriot who is
spouting forth with "my-
country-right-or-wrongism .' '

It is Emerson who said, "If
anything cannot bear free
thought, let it crack," His ad-
vice is as relevant to foreign
policy as to social regulations
at a college.

Students Form
Committee For
South Viet Nam

Dear Campus Editor:

The college-aged students of
the United States have been bad-
ly criticized in recent months
for their attitude toward the
Vietnam issue. This criticism
has resulted from the unfortu-
nate wide - spread publicity
given to the small, noisy mi-
nority of students who have been
opposing the American defense
of Vietnam.

Consequently, Young Repub-
licans, Young Democrats, and
Independents have come toget-
her to form the new bi-partis-
an National Student Committee
for the Defense of Vietnam. This
new student committee has no
association with any extra -
party political organization of
either the right or the left. Our
sole purpose is to mobilize col-
lege students in a concerted
program of responsible action
in support of American resis-
tance to Communist aggression
in Southeast Asia.

Specifically, we will engage in
a number of activities on the
campus level. First, our com-
mittee intends to distribute and
collect petitions supporting the
United States defense of Viet-
nam.

If your college already
has distributed petitions on be-
half of American policy in Viet-
nam, we would appreciate your
indication to us of the number
of students who have signed. At
the end of November, we plan
to announce nationally, the total
number of student signatures
favoring the American commit-
ment to the people of South
Vietnam.

Secondly, we are urging col-
lege campuses, especially dur-
ing the period from November
22 to December 10, to engage
in a series of rallies support-
ing American policy in Viet-
nam. If you feel that it is pos-
sible for your university to hold
such a rally during this period,
please let us know the date for
the rally and any information
you might have as to its nature.

Thirdly, we plan to distribute
educational materials to col-
lege campuses explaining this
country's position in Vietnam.
Please let us know if we can be
of assistance to you in this
area.

Finally, we urge students on
your campuses to send Christ-
mas cards to our soldiers in
Vietnam. You can address these
cards in care of the World
Affairs Forum, Brigham Young
University, Provo, Utah. The
cards must reach Brigham
Young by December 1, if your
soldiers are to receive them on
Christmas Day.

We welcome your cooperation
and assistance in this bi-par-
tisan, national program to show
the American people that the
new student radicals do not
speak for our generation in their
irresponsible opposition to our
country's policy in Vietnam.

If you have any questions as
to any phase of our committee,
please feel free to write us or
to call the individuals in Wash-
ington whose numbers are list-
ed below.

Yours truly,

Exam Week Crutch

New Federal Law Restricts
Student Use Of Pep Pills

By Betsy Anderson
Excerpted with permission
from

The St. Petersburg (Florida)
Times

Some college students may have a hard time
staying awake this year.

Those who have relied on "pep pills" to
keep them alert for all-night cramming will
find the pills aren't easy to get anymore.

A bill signed by President Johnson last sum-
mer tightens federal control over ampheta-
mines and barbiturates and increases the pen-
alty for unlawful sale of the drugs.

Now, anyone who unlawfully disposes of the
pills (by selling, delivering, etc.) to a person
under 21 can be fined $5000 and sentenced to
two years of imprisonment for the first con-
viction. Af the Federal Drug Administra-
tion (FDA) plans to spend about $10 million a
year enforcing the new law.

Amphetamines are chemical stimulants,
often called pep pills. Benzedrine, Dexedrine
and Dexamyl are the trade names for the most
common ones.

Bartiburates, "goof balls," are chemical
depressants such as sleeping pills.

Though classified as non-narcotic, the drugs
have been labeled a menace tQ health and sanity.
Neither is available legally without prescrip-
tion.

The death of a student at the University of
Toronto last May was attributed to an overdose
of pep pills during an exam week. Rumor has
it that four students at a well-known university
in Tennessee died from a similar overdose
recently. Dr. Joseph F. Sadufk Jr., medical
director of the FDA, told the American Medi-
cal Association last summer that 4< the drugs
can cause serious addiction, illness and some-
times death."

"Taking pep pills in order to take final
exams casts some doubt on the stability of the
individual and sets him up for additional
problems later," says Dr. Harold Moon, as-
sistant professor of psychology at Auburn Uni-
versity.

But the concern of medical authorities hasn't
influenced the college students who need to stay
up all night to cram. In order to stay awake,
they take a pill easily available in recent
years on most college campuses.

One student estimated that 60 per cent of
his friends at a state university had taken
"dex," and the FDA estimates that half of the
annual production of more than 10 billion pep
pills and barbiturates is finally sold through
illegal, non-prescription channels, mostly to
juveniles and college students.

College students usually obtain the pills
from classmates and friends who have pre-
scriptions for the drugs (the new law limits
the number of times a perscription can be
filled) or who have family or business con-
nections with a drug store or drug company.
Sometimes, says the grapevine, the source of
supply is medical or pharmaceutical students.

The pills and capsules are available in a
variety of colors and potencies.

The going rate for the most common pill
varies from 30 cents per pill to at least $1.25

and maybe higher. Premium prices are

charged during exam weeks, when the demand
is greatest.

LATE HOURS IN the smoker often bring the g

temptation to take "pep pills" to get through
the rest of the night. It's usually against the
law, and its dangerous.

With a prescription, the amphethamine pills
are available in any drug store for about five
cents apiece. They are used in treating over- 8
weight, depression and narcolepsy. Side ef-
fects include insomnia, excitability and in-
creased motor activity. Overdosage results in ft
restlessness, dizziness, tenseness, irritabil- ;X
ity, chilliness and sweating; often it creates a
sense of exhilaration or a false sense of well- |:j
being when the individual is fatigued. $:
Techniques for using the pills vary with in- |:J
dividuals. Some take a pill about 8 p.m., -x
sle> p for an hour, then get up and are set for
a night of studying. Others take a pill and sit g
down immediately to study. Others prefer to
study until about 10 p.m., then take a pill to
ward off drowziness they fear will overcome $
them later. vj
Reactions to the pill also vary.
Some say the pills do no good whatsoever.
"It's a fallacy!" snorted one who had used &
several his freshman year. &;

Others say that with a pill they can tune out #
everything around them and have perfect ;
concentration for hours.

Still others recall having thought they were
alert while writing a paper or an exam, and
then later re-reading the paper or exam book
to discover that all they wrote was inco-
herent.

Studies conducted by two Harvard medical
school researchers in 1964 indicated that am-
phethamine pills dull judgement.

Not affected by the new law are the caffeine
tablets that are sold over-the-counter in drug
stores, truck stops and assorted other places.
These pills are also used on many college
campuses, though students report they are not
nearly as effective as amphethamines.

However, doctors don't approve of the caf-
feine tablets either. Said one, 'They are poor
crutches, and any crutch is bad. There is ter-
rific letdown when the pill wears out. The stu-
dents try to mask signs of their troubles rath-
er than facing up to them and solving them."

Social Council Quietly Working

One important campus organization which
does not stay in the limelight, yet is constant-
ly working to provide a more interesting
social life for Scotties is Social Council.

Social Council plans the "mixers," bridge
parties, entertainment films, fireside chats,
and fashion shows.

The But Of Faith

This year two innovations have been plan-
ned. One is a bridal show in winter quarter
and the other is an interior decorating dem-
onstration.

We commend Social Council for a creative
and imaginative program.

Faith is a matter of BUT. We do not see
life form a pattern that can be expressed in
one clause. We condemn such statements as
"Life is beautiful" and (with less harsh
condemnation at present) "Life is painful."
Yet we do not live our lives on the basis
of two clauses corrected by AND: "Life is
painful, and it is beautiful." Everyone
must make a commitment, which if verbaliz-
ed would be a BUT statement. "Life is beau-
tiful, but it is painful," or "Life is pain-
ful, but it is beautiful." The first clause is
an expression of what is only an appearance,
only transient, or at least of what is less

important. After the BUTcomes what is real,
permanent, or essential. There is every
possible difference between the two state-
ments. Which is correct "Man's attempts
to achieve 'human dignity* can be glorious,
BUT the world's ugliness gives him limits
he can never overcome," or "The world's
ugliness gives man limits he can never over-
come, BUT his attempts to achieve 'human
dignity' can be glorious."? "God is sup-
posedly in control, BUT man declared him
dead" or "Man has supposedly declared
God dead, BUT God is in control."?

The Agnes Scott College Glee
Club, under the direction of Mr.
Haskell Boyter, will present its
Christmas program for 1965 in
Gaines Chapel at 8:15 p.m. Sun-
day, December 12.

Mr. Boyter, the club director,

Congress Considers
School Tax Credits

by Claire Allen

Tax credit for the expenses
of higher education is a con-
gressional issue of interest to
college students and their par-
ents. In the past few years,
various plans for tax credits
or deductions to benefit those
who pay college fees have been
proposed in Congress.

The sponsors of one plan
ranged in political ideology
from Barry Goldwater to Hu-
bert Humphrey. At the close
of the last session of Congress,
none of the plans proposed had
been enacted, as the result of
which this issue will be ex-
tended into next year.

On September 2, 1965, the
Senate passed a $4.7-billion
higher education bill providing
federal scholarships for needy
students and funds to streng-
then colleges which are trying
to cope with rising enrollments.
However, the bill neglects the
lower-middle income parents
who carry the financial weight
of their childrens' educations
themselves and also neglects
the private colleges and uni-
versities.

Private colleges and univer-
sities must deal with rising
prices, increasing enrollments,
and the necessity for expanding
facilities, which requires in-
creasing the tuitions. Raising
tuition fees creates a situation
in which many students decide
to attend state supported
schools where a college educa-
tion is less expensive and they
are likely to receive federal

Decatur Alums
Attend Chapel
Dance Program

Decatur Agnes Scott Alumnae
Club will hold its December
program on "Christmas and
Contemporary Dance" jointly
with Agnes Scott. The presen-
tation scheduled for November
23 has been postponed until
December 3. At that time, the
Alumnae Club will join Scott's
student body at 10:00 a.m. in
Gaines Chapel for the Christ-
mas Contemporary Dance pro-
gram.

The Alumnae Club's regular
monthly meeting will follow the
chapel presentation. Refresh-
ments will be served at that
time in the alumnae house. Hos-
tesses for the occasion will be
Mrs. S. G. Stukes, Mrs. C. W.
Dieckman, and Mrs. Robert
On, of the Decatur club, along
with other members of the At-
lanta Alumnae Club.

funds to aid in financing their
educations.

Roger Freeman of the Hoov-
er Institution at Stanford Uni-
versity has proposed a tax-
credit plan which would benefit
middle-class families and pri-
vate colleges and universities.
Mr. Freeman maintains that
colleges and universities could
boost tuition revenues by as
much as $50,000,000 annually
under the plan without imposing
burdens on parents.

He suggests a 100% deduc-
tion on the first $100 of col-
lege fees, with a 30% credit on
tuition fees paid between $100
and $500, and 20% credit on
payments between $500 and
$1500. The maximum credit
per student would be $420 .

This indirect method of aid
rather than direct federal
grants would remove the danger
of conflict by participation of
private institutions in federal
funds. The issues of separa-
tion of church and state and
federal control would be avoid-
ed. Also, the federal bureau-
cracy would not be expanded.

Rochester, New York.

He has served as Minister of
Music at Druid Hills Presbyter-
ian Church, and now he and his
wife, who aids him in directing
the Scott Glee Club, are jointly
in charge of music at Peachtree
Presbyterian Church.

Mr. Boyter founded the At-
lanta Choral Guild in 1939 and
was its director for 20 years.
Another of his varied jobs is
that of director of radio and
television for the Atlanta Board
of Education.

The Glee Club, consisting of
more than 80 members, will
present a program with a wide
range. From a madrigal by
Monteverdi, "Hodie Chrisms
Matus Est"; a selection from
the Romantic period, 'The An-
gelic Greeting" by Brahms;
to more modern compositions
including two by Flor Peeters,
"Jubilate Deo Omnis Terra"
and "in Excelsis Gloria".

Others include "No Rose of
Such Virtue" by Smith, "The
First Mercy" by Warlock,
"Madonna and Child" by Do-
nato, "Christmas Dance of the
Shepherds" by Kodaly, and
Diemer's "Alleluia."

Participation on the part of
the audience on the form of
familiar carols is being planned.

The Glee Club will hold try-
outs again Winter Quarter for
those girls interested in join-
ing them. Dues are $2.00
and the scheduled rehearsals
are Tuesday from 7:00-8:15
p.m. and Wednesday from 5:00-
6:15 p.m. in 4 Presser Hall.

These are the major topics
covered in the Nov. 9th meeting
of Rep Council:

WEEKEND

Policy Committee is working
on the possiblity of changing the
official weekend from Saturday
and Sunday to Friday and Sa-
turday. This change would ef-
fect only freshmen, who are
allowed one social engagement
during the week and two on
weekends.

PRIVATE PHONES

Rep Council passed a recom-
mendation from House Council
to the effect that students be al-
lowed to have private phones.
These are the conditions stipu-
lated in the recommendation:

1) All students are to partici-
pate in phone co- op whe-
ther they have private
phones or not.

2) Phones must be installed in
rooms unless a whole hall
decides to install a phone.

3) No one except the owner is
responsible for answering
a private phone.

4) House Council shall have
the power to have private
phones removed if they be-
come a nuisance.

News will be posted regarding
what students desiring private
phones should do.

ELECTIONS

Rep Council will spend several
meetings discussing election
procedure. Elections Commit-
tee is considering the possi-
bility of some major changes
in elections this year.

However, her master's the-
sis was the study of special
problems of miosis in plant
chromosomes. If she con-
tinues to do research, she plans
to work in some other field of
cytology.

Miss Giles states that she is
finding her first real teaching
experience very rewarding. She
sees as particularly interesting
the difference in attitudes of
men and women students. She
taught men while she was at the
University of Virginia and says
that they seldom show excite-
ment. She finds Scotties much
more appreciative of her ef-
forts as a teacher and feels that
this is more gratifying to her.

As an instructor of cytology,
Miss Giles remarks that she
spends as much time prepar-
ing her lectures as she did
studying in college. However,
she says that the pressure is
not as great as that in studying

Sophomores Win Swim Meet;
Freshmen Br eak Old Records

A large crowd was on hand
Tuesday, November 16, to watch
the sophomores inundate the
freshmen, juniors, and seniors.
The final scores were sophs.
37, freshmen, 34.5, seniors
24.5, and juniors, defending
champions, 21.

Tension ran high as records
were broken and tied. The meet
narrowed down at the end to a
close race between the sopho-
mores and freshmen.

The freshmen are to be con-
gratulated on breaking three
previous records and tying one
other. The freshman team for
80 yard medley broke the rec-
ord set by the class o f '65-
55.1 sec.- by finishing in 49.0

seconds.

Cheryl Philips was especially
outstanding by breaking the 4-
yard. freestyle record and 60
yard individual medley record-
previously held by sophomore
Lin Russ. Cheryl beat Lin's
record by 5.9 seconds.

Freshman Janice Autry tied
Louise Watkins' record for 40
yard backstroke with a 27.9.

In the form swimming, Grace
Brewer, Susan Smith, and
Courtney Tuttle were among
the most graceful swimmers.

Excellent diving was shown
by all three participants - Lynn
Anthony, Louise Watkins, and
Mary Ellen Bond.

The following is the over-all
outcome of the meet:

CONNIE MAGEEsets out a greased slide to catch pollen
from the air, as part of her independent study; she smiles
triumphantly with slide box in hand.

Observatory Dome Is
Site Of Magee Study

by Justi

While the rest of the campus
is still stumbling out of bed,
Connie Magee, a seniorbiology
major, dressed in tomboy garb,
steathily climbs "ole obser-
vatory hill." Like a veteran
burglar, she prowls through the
observatory, gathers a slide
box, a tube of stop-cock grease,
and a ladder. She goes to the
top walkway, swings a leg over
the gutter, and sets out a greas-
ed slide that completes the cer-
emony of catching the pollen in
the air.

Connie has just begun a two
year study, of which she will
do nine-months work, of the pol-
len in the area. Winter and
spring quarters, she will begin
her independent study project
for which these daily excur-
sions are in preparation.

Each day she places an oiled
slide on a stand atop the obser-
vatory, which is an ideal place,
not being surrounded by build-

ings. The pollen gathers on the
slide. Connie later stains these
slides. Her independent project
will include identifying the
different pollens.

According to Dr. Doerping-
haus, the object of the study is
to aid a group of doctors in the
area by making a positive iden-
tification of pollen in the air
and correlating this with a quan-
titative study. This will enable
the doctors to predict what pol-
len will be in the air a week or
two in advance, so they can give
patients with allergies a shot
before the air is too polluted.

The pollen keys which are
available at the present time
are inadequate, and "it may
always be inadequate identifi-
cation," according to Dr. Doe r-
pinghaus. t Once the exact pol-
lens in the are are identified,
the doctors can crush these
pollens, and chemically analyse
them to make treatments-

How does participation in the
alumnae - student program ef-
fect the outlook and opinion of
alumnae of Agnes Scott? This
question posed to three Agnes
Scott alumnae aids in the un-
derstanding of the purpose as
well as the merit of the alum-
nae - student program.

Sara Frances McDonald, who
sponsors freshmen Pam Gaf-
ford and Mary Garlington, ex-
pressed: "I am deeply impress-
ed with the quality of students
now at Agnes Scott. I fear I
could not get in or out of the
college now. The girls seem to
have poise, intelligence, and
charm. My relation to my two
sponsorees has brought warm-
th, fun and enthusiasm." Miss
McDonald is the immediate past
president of the Alumnae
Association.

to his business duties that of

ecutive, chicken farmer, mem-
ber of the Board of Trustees
at Emory, and past mayor of

Woodstock, Georgia, sponsors
Lennard Smith and Melinda
Johnson. Because this is her
first year to participate in the
program she commented: "I
am interested in participating in
this program to strengthen my
ties with the college community
by getting to know the fresh-
men. I hope, also, that the pro-
gram will interest my high
school daughter, who I hope will
attend Agnes Scott."

react as freshmen to college
as to how I reacted."

MOVIE REVIEW

"MOCKINGS" FROM RAMON A

Dear Mom,

Please forgive me for not
writing last week, but I didn't
have a minute. I wanted to write
this letter, even though I'm
coming home today, because
there are a few things I want
you to know before you see
me.

Yes, I've put on a little weight.
Don't worry about my clothes
not fitting. I've bought a com-
plete new wardrobe... size 14.
I'm sure we can find a nice
home for all my old size 8's.

Let me explain. The desserts
have been so good and so vari-
ed, I've just had to eat two or
three a meal. Also campus
chefs had a terrific birthday
party last week for people whose
birthdays are in November. I
felt a little guilty about hav-
ing four pieces of the delicious
cake, since my birthday is in
May, but it was my half -birth-
day, after all.

We also had a scrumptious
spagetti dinner, with candles
and all. And after I located my
spagetti, it was great. I don't
know what's the matter with
these people. Everyone else was
full after one helping: I went

back twice. Of course it can't
compare with your cooking,
Mom, but after Campus Chefs,
I don't believe I'll be known
as a 98 pound weakling any
more.

One other quick item. I've
had my ears pierced. That is,
I had one ear pierced. I never
could get the earring through the
other ear. I wore one for a while,
hoping to set a new trend, but
everyone just call called me
Mr. Clean, so I've given it up.
There is still a slight hole in
my left ear, but that's nothing
to be alarmed about.

I'm afraid athletics just isn't
my forte (that's a new word I
learned in English). Although
I made a big splash at the swim-
ming meet I was fully cloth-
ed at the time I didn't get
to participate as I'd planned. I
know I would have broken the
record for underwater hula-
hooping, but we couldn't find
any competition^

The one good thing which
came out of the venture was
my meeting Anne (Fumpsey)
Glendinning, who reached fame
through her underwater perfor-
mance last year. We've really
gotten to be good friends. Act-

ually Fumpsey asked me to
spend Thanksgiving with her,
and I really wanted to. However,
when I found out she was just
going to Main, I decided to come
home.

I really ought to stay here and
study for exams. When I got
my schedule and saw I had two
scheduled for the same time, I
frantically worried whether
they would have to run back
and forth between Butterick and
Campbell, but then I got a note
from the D.O. Everything is
straightened out now. I have
two Friday, two Saturday, and
Then English Thursday morn-
ing.

I've had a little trouble work-
ing out my transportation for
this weekend, and I do hope to
make it for dinner Thursday.
I'm taking the train to Mem-
phis, where I'll have a three-
hour wait. Then I'm going with
a friend who's flying her pri-
vate plane to Bowling Green,
and from there I have a ride
to Bug Hill. Just seven of us
in a Volkswagon.

I can't wait to see you all,
especially Butch. Must dash.

Love,
Ramona

Marshall Movie Inspires
Similar Scottie Success

by Virginia Russell

Agnes Scott played a pro-
minent role in Peter Marshall's
life, whether he realized it or
not. Those who watched "A
Man Called Peter" on Monday
Night at the Movies" November
15 were cheered to see the in-
fluence of Scott on him.

Throughout the movie were
incidents which made Scotties
proud of another of our alum-
nae.. If his Scottie had not been a
true one, Peter's life story
might have been different.

Catherine Wood Marshall is
a Scott success story, and helps
prove the theory "he (or she)
who stands in wait, etc. (?)"
For two years she went to the
same church-Peter Marshall's
in hopes of getting his atten-
tion.

Finally, when she was a sen-
ior, and a little desperate, no
doubt, she got a chance to meet
him. Surmounting formidable
odds, she made a roaring suc-
cess of her very first public
speech and won his admiration.
Perserverance pays off.

But there are others:

On her honeymoon, when
Catherine got seasick, she
didn't interfere with her hus-
band's fun. While he was out
fishing, she sat on the beach-
and read. Who but a Scotty?

When the Marshalls moved to
Washington, where he was to
preach at the New York Avenue
Presbyterian Church, Peter
once misinformed Catherine a-
bout the dress for a dinner
party. Did being grossly un-
derdressed bother her? Nobody
ever knew-she's a Scottie.

Quite symbolically, or at
least miraculously, as the
movie ended, Catherine was in
a boat and was no longer sea-
sick.

Scenes filmed on the Scott
campus quickened all hearts
especially those scenes in the
formal gardens, and plush In-
man bedrooms. The audience
even got to see a quick mo-
ment of a hockey game, and
a tennis class in action.

sented Friday and Saturday nights by Blackfriars. Malie Bruton
and Stuart Culpepper played the lead roles.

those who attended the Black-
friars fall productions found
out just what the red light was.

The red light was an inte-
gral part of "Masks of An-
gels" one of the two one-act
plays presented by Blackfriars
commemorating their 50th
birthday and the opening of the
new theater in the Dana Fine
Arts Building.

The first play to be present-
ed was Federico Garcia Lorca's
"The Love of Don Perlimplin
and Belisa in the Garden," The
scenery in this play was well
made and appropriate, the cos-
tumes grand, and the acting for
the most part superb. The play
was billed in the program as
"concentrated, intense, it illu-
strates Lorca's gift for weav-
ing fantasy and reality, comedy
and tragedy, with brevity and
swiftness as he tells the story

COME TO THE

wrote the play. But in the Agnes
Scott production, it seemed that
it was the story of the girl.
The acting that was turned in by
Ayse Ilgaz as Belisa oversha-
dowed that of the other prin-
cipal members of the cast. An-
gela Saad was also good in her
role of the mother anxious for
her daughter to wed. Other
members of the cast were Her-
man Humer as Don Perlimplin
and Dianne Gray as his maid
who was reallymore in love with
him than Belisa could ever be.

The change of scenes was
highlighted by the performance
of the two sprites Frances
Foreman and Grace Winn. Their
actions and facial expressions
were as good as or better
than their lines (which inciden-
tally were the funniest of the
comedy). They served to quick-
en the action which bv that time

was definitely dragging.

The second play presented
was Notis Peryalis' "Masks of
Angels," a fast moving story of
two people's trying to accept
"themselves their unhappy past,
and each other," With this play
came the revelation of the red
light. If "Don Perlimplin" was
billed as "intense", then there
is no adequate way to describe
"Masks of Angels."

Malie Bruton and Stuart Cul-
pepper, as Margo and Petro,
were magnificent. The roles
which they played were diffi-
cult because they called for sucn
differing moods and high points
of emotion, but they were play-
ed to perfection.

These were offset by the roles
of their past loves Dimitris
(Hermann Flaschka) and Maria
(Margaret Peyton). The perfor-
mance of Dimitris was excel-
lent in every way and especi-
ally in the last dramatic scene.
Margaret Peyton gave a good
performance but was over-
shadowed by the superb acting
and the emotion-packed roles of
Culpepper, Bruton, and Flasch-
ka.

The lighting in this play con-
tributes very much to the total
effect and it was handled ex-
tremely well. The famous red
light showed up the anger, pas-
sion, and ugliness in the world
while the blue light allowed the
calm, quiet, and beauty of the
world to penetrate.

Just as the sprites relieved
the situation in "Don Perlimp-
lin" so Blair Louise Major and
Steve Harding as the young girl
and boy helped to inject a sense
of frivolity into an emotion
packed play. This made a grand
contrast and added much to the
effect of the play.

"Masks of Angels" cannot
be discussed without a final
word of praise for Stuart Cul-
pepper. Not only is his acting

ability excellent, but he did a
terrific job of playing a most
difficult role with one leg tied
behind him.

All in all, Blackfriars turned
in performances well up to their
standards. Miss Winter, has
proved once again to be an ex-
cellent director and Miss Rentz
in her year at Scott provided

wonderful sets. It was a fine and
fitting celebration for the 50th
birthday and a fine inauguration
of a beautiful new theater.

| Married Students Face
Budget, Food Problems

by Janice Weatherby

Out of the total 744 students
enrolled at Agnes Scott, 21 are
married. Mollie Burton Bu-
ford, Jenny Dillion Moore, and
Judy Orthwein (transfer from
Sarah Lawrence) had some in-
teresting and enlightening
things to say about marriage in
general.

In considering some of those
"little things" that are sour-
ces of irritation in this dif-
ferent world of the Agnes Scott
married student Mollie prompt-
ly said that she and her husband
could never agree on which way
to turn the blinds I (Maybe that
doesn't seem like a big prob-
lem now - but it just might be
under different circumstances.)

Jenny added that it was not
pleasant to have to pick up her
husband's dirty clothes which
seem to be everywhere but
where they should be - "he's
used to having his mother pick
up after him." Jenny didn't con-
sider this too big a problem,
however, in light of all the good
things.

Some of the bigger problems,
they all agreed, was the prob-
lem of budgeting. Both Judy
and Mollie are on a "strict
allowance." Judy is given
money by her husband to buy
groceries, gas for the car,
books and she pays all utility
bills.

If she wants something new
she has to do a little shuffling
with the allowance; it was mucl
easier to finagle father out of
the money. Jokingly she said:
"My husband just can't under-
stand why I can't buy every-
thing with the money he gives
me."

Jenny seems to be just a little
luckier. She says when she

needs something, she just asks
Larry for it; she's not on any
set allowance. "Both Larry
and I are really very thrifty,"
she explained.

What about those days when
everything comes at once, such
as two tests and a paper all
due on the same day I Will your
husbands take on "wifely chor-
es" to help you out?

Mollie says that her husband
will usually stop by the Braz-
ier on the way home to bring
home the supper when she is
really pressed for time. She
then added, with a mixture of
obvious surprise but sincere
gratification "He will even dry
the dishes sometimes.'*

Judy's husband, however, will
never come near the kitchen
except maybe "to lick the cake
pan." She divulged that he
never did any household chor-
es but is "really rather au-
thoritarian."

They all agreed that when
you are a married student, you
are first a wife, then a student.
Judy said that, of course, she
takes her classes seriously,
but "Agnes Scott is on the
periphery of my life." All seem
to be doing as well in school
now as before, however. Jenny
suggested when you are married
you can see extra time for work
that just didn't seem to exist
before. She makes better use
of her time now.

One very interesting point
Judy brought out, which was
seconded by Jenny and Mollie,
was how much she learned and
was still learning about her
husband that she never sus-
pected before. (Judy quickly
added that she didn't mean
"suspect" in a bad sense.)
They all agreed that you do dis-
cover different aspects of your
husband's character, but did not
seem the least disappointed with
this process of enlightment for
all ended by recommending
marriage highly.

Emory Conference

Altizer Sees America Best
To Advance New Concepts

Already the scene of much
recent controversy concerning
the "Death of God" theologians,
last weekend, November 18-20
Emory University hosted a con-
ference on "America and the
Future of Theology." Its co-
sponsors were Columbia Theo-
logical Seminary and the Inter-
denominational Theological
Center, with the collaboration of
The Westminster Press.

Dr. William Beardslee of
Emory's Department of Bible
and Religion was chairman of
the planning committee which
worked on the speakers and
other arrangements for about a
year and a half. The particu-
lar theme was chosen because
it seemed that there are "cer-
tain frontiers of a theological
exploration that are particular-
ly open to American work, both
because of the intellectual tra-
ditions which areavailableto the
American scholar, and because
of the particular historical con-
text within which we find our-
selves as Americans.

The central theme of the con-
ference will be a dialogue about
the religious meaning of the
world within the context of the
dislocation and uprootedness of
American life. **The discussion
of the various special topics
will illuminate the meaning of
doing theology in the American
context of life."

Dr. William Mallard, also on
the planning committee and a
Professor of Church History in
the Candler School of Theology,
commented that when plans for
the gathering were initiated, it
wasn't imagined that a mere
four weeks before the con-
ference would see nation-wide
attention focused on Emory's
Dr. Thomas J.J. Altizer and
consequently on the conference
itself. According to Dr. Mallard
this only enhanced the interest
and the attendance for this past
weekend's activities.

Although the speakers includ-
ed a most illustrious assort-
ment of prominant philoso-
phers, ministers, theologians,
and sociologists, it was evident
that the session at which Dr.
Altizer read his paper on "The-
ology and the Contemporary Se-
nsibility" was the most heavily
attended.

Dr. Altizer drew heavily on
two literary works, "Ameri-
ca," a poem by William Blake
and Mobv Dick, the novel by
Herman Melville, From the
poem he calls forth images
which help to describe his own
eschatalogical and apocalyptic
vision for America. He said that
it is"characteristic of America
to have detachment from its
past, which frees it to affirm
the future." Dr Altizer sees
true redemption as the in-
version of traditional Christia-
nity and the role of this coun-
try to be the force impelling
the forward thrust of this new
understanding.

Dr. Altizer views Captian
Ahab in Mq hy rick as the Arch-
type God-slayer. In his quest of
the great white whale, Ahab
symbolizes all men who would
"strike through the mask of
God," who would rid themselves
of the tyrant-God to which they
have been bound. Ahab is driven
to seek out and kill his mon-
strous opponent, for only then
can he be free.

Altizer went on to say that
the Incarnation and the subse-
quent death of God in Human
history caused the distance be-

by Penny Penland

tween man and the transcend-*
dent God to disappear. The
early church could not accept
this state of affairs and in ef-
fect "ecclesiastical Christiani-
ty imprisoned God in his tomb
by resurrecting him to the so-
vereignty of the risen Lord."

He cautioned against seeking
an eschatelogy that would be a
"repetition of the primordial
beginning. The relative move-
ment of involution and return
must be thrown out. We must
move into the future by nega-
ting the past." With these words
and the theme of Blake's poem

in mind, it becomes a little
clearer why Altizer envisions
America as the nation best e-
quipped to grasp these concepts
and expand and advance them.

One should not be alarmed if
some aspects of this evolving
theology seem blurred or even
contradictory, for Dr. Altizer
and his colleagues are the first
to confess that they are still
working out their ideas and their
remifications. For further

C. A. Day Nursery Work
Offers Outlet For Talent

by Elizabeth Cooper

The Sheltering Arms Day
Nursery, both an affiliate of the
Capital Homes on Memorial
Drive, and a service of the
federal housing projects, offers
to the alert Agnes Scott stu-
dent the opportunity to trans-
form her talents and imagina-
tion into service. Christian As-
sociation, recognizing the value
of the student-child relation-
ship, branched its arms of ser-
vice to include a project in con-
junction with the day nursery.

"The nursery provides a se-
cond home for approximately
one hundred children from ages
two to twelve," commented
Betty Anne Boyd, chairman of
the project, as she pointed out
the project's background. Eigh-
ty-five percent of these child-
ren have only one parent, who
works from early morning un-
til evening.

The nursery divides the chil-
dren into four age divisions,
each of which is headed by one
of the four staff members.
"However," added Betty Anne,
'*these staff members act more
as disciplinarians. The Agnes
Scott students, therefore, give
the young boys and girls the
chance to be closely associated
with older people on a more

says Betty Anne.

The Sheltering Arms project
members meet at Main on
Thursday at 2:30 and return
from the nursery by 4:30. "Any-
one who has creative ideas for
games or musical talent is in-
vited to join us," remarked
Betty Anne.

Juniors Plan
Campus Party

Before Exams

The junior class is giving
a campus-wide party in the Hub,
Wednesday night, December 8
the day before Reading Day.
The party will begin at 9, and
says Carole Robertson, presi-
dent of the class, will end at
10 o'clock, "so the people in
the library can study." This
party is not to be confused with
the Community Christmas
Party.

Dress will be casual. Hot
chocolate and cookies will be
served. Carole says this will
be a good chance to "get away
from the books for thirty min-
utes or so to shout, relax, and
sing."

social basis.

The twenty Agnes Scott par-
ticipants of the Sheltering Arms
project lead the children in
varied social activities.

The school - age children
occupy their days with singing,
preparing homework assign-
ments, outdoor sports, and
learning social etiquette. "We
try to teach the kids manners
through acquaintance and
sportsmanship through games,"

Tumblins Discuss
Sex And Morality

By Justice Waldrop

'1

Only rarely does a bull-ses-
sion in a dorm develop into
anything more. And only on
rare occasions do the students
involved carry their questions
and opinions the one step fur-
ther that can change the bull-
session ideas into fruitful dis-
cussion. Such was the case when
students in Winship invited Dr #
and Mrs. Tumblin to discuss
with them "Is Sex Still an Issue
in Social Morality or Is It an
Individual Decision?"

Touching at the heart of the
matter immediately, Dr. Tumb-
lin suggested two definitions
of "new morality." In much of
the current literature and ve-
nacular, it is an "anything
goes" attitude, total rela-
tivism.

Dr. and Mrs. Tumblin sug-
gested a new orientation based
on a reverence for the "Thou"
in each other, for that which is
holy in every human being.This
Tillich calls theonomy. He cit-
ed Harvey Cox's morality as
depicted in Secular City which
"places us in a community of
ourselves, free in that we live
for each other."

The discussion ran the gamut
from grandmother's moral code
to license. Students were par-
ticularly interested in the effect

the modern way of life is having
on morals. Said one," Con-
traceptives remove the extern-
al bans (on premarital sex) on
the basis of fear of pregnancy.
Will we find a new basis?"
Grandmother was really nev-

er faced with the choices, with a
code of absolute rights and
wrongs , Tumblin commented.
Her sex code revolved around
three ideas about sex: it was a
duty to her husband, a fear for
her daughter, and a sin outside
of marriage.

This Dr. Tumblin termed as
heteronomous moralism rather
than morality; this treats peo-
ple as less than people. The

, old moralism ignores the to-
tality of persons and the to-
tality of sex.

Dr. and Mrs. Tumblin recog-
nize the dangers in both ex-
tremes: the person-destroy-
ing restrictions and the per-
son-destroying license.

Winshipites perked up when
Plavbov made its way into the
discussion. Dr. Tumblin at-
tacked 'Svhat they're preach-
ing" not the pinups: it preach-
es what a man should be and
how he should treat a woman.
This is an "exploitative, ir-
reverent view," according to
Dr. Tumblin.

As the evening wore on, com-
ments became more frank. What
to do with a Hugh Heffner-in-
fluenced boy, what to do "when
you know he isn't looking for the

Thou' in you" were: up for
consideration.

Dr. and Mrs. Tumblin threw
back not any absolute laws,
legalistic codes but some
guides, stressing a reverence
for the thou-ness in each mem-
ber of a dating relationship, a
sense of responsibility for the
partner in this matter.

AA Sets Defense
Course For
Winter Quarter

Henry Wagner, of a local
police department, will teach a
self-defense course at Agnes
Scott earlv in winter quarter.

Because of limited space,
only one hundred participants
are allowed in one class. How-
ever, if enough people above the
one hundred limit show interest
in the class, another can be or-
ganized for spring quarter.

Mr. Wagner is very enthu-
siastic about his work. He
teaches policemen self-defense

courses and has wrestled. His
assistant, a woman who works
with the Welfare Department,
also wrestles.

Students will be taught how to
use common everyday things as
weapons, such as a water pis-
tol with amonia in it. No ka-
rate will be taught, but a small
amount of judo will be.

The knowledge gained by tak-
ing the course will be useful
if something happens when
someone is waiting for a bus or

a car on a streetcorner, or in
any situation when someone is
attacked.

This course is one of A.A.'s
efforts this year to give stu-
dents a wide scope of things
to participate in other than just
ordinary sports.

Harvard Senior Flips
Way To Pinball Glory

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (CPS)
Robert D. Willig, a Harvard
senior, flipped his way into pin-
ball immortality last week.

With a virtuoso performance
on the red bumpers and master-
ful flipper control, Willig scor-
ed an all-time record 2785
on the Tommy's Lunch pinball
machine, obliterating the pre-
vious mark of 2350.

The epochal performance
started innocently enough, as
Willig totaled 450 after his
first two balls. But the ball
was sheer poetry. The sandy-
haired senior lit all four bump-
ers almost immediately, ca-
romed the silver spheroid
against the century target sev-
eral times, and made brilliant
saves repeatedly. When the
smoke cleared, Willig had sur-
passed 1900 points and every-
one at Tommy's knew he might
be seeing history in the making.

His hands trembling, Willig
lit a cigarette and paused be-
fore shooting the fourth ball.

He was thinking of the pool
hall in Brooklyn where he had
pushed his first flipper, never

dreaming that some day he-
would be standing on the brink
of greatness. He was thinking
of his mother and father, who
more than anything else in the
world, wanted their little boy
to grow up to be a pinball
champion.

Playing too cautiously, Willig
scored only 200 on his fourth
ball. When his fifth shot fail-
ed to light the all-important
red bumpers, a hush fell over
the crowd.

But Willig began to show the
stuff of which champions are
made. Deftly he lit the blue
bumper. Then he left the fans
exophthalmic with a long flip
to the hundred target. After
bouncing the ball between the
blue and yellow bumpers, Wil-
leg was home free. It was a
moment that will be remem-
bered as long as The Game is
played.

Gibbs School
Offers Aid

Two national scholarships for
college senior girls are offered
for 1966-1967 by the Katharine
Gibbs School.

These awards were esta-
blished in 1935 as a memorial
to Mrs. Katharine M. Gibbs,
founder and first president of
the School.

Each scholarship consists of
full tuition ($1,200) for the se-
cretarial training course, plus
an additional cash award of $500
totaling $1,700.

The winners may select any
one of the four Gibbs schools
for their training Boston, New
York, Montclair, Providence.

Winners are chosen by the
Scholarship Committee on the
basis of college academic re-
cord, personal and character
qualifications, financial need,
and potentialities for success in
business.

Each college or university
may recommend two candi-
dates, and each candidate must
have this official endorsement.

Students who may be intere-
sted in competing for one of
these Katharine Gibbs awards
may obtain full information from
Miss Myjrphey in the college
placement office, Buttrick.

ting other colleges from all
around the South.

Some excellent teams will be
debating the Intercollegiate De-
bate topic, "Resolved: That
law enforcement agencies in the
United States should be given
greater freedom in the investi-
gation and prosecution of
crime." There will be a total
of five rounds in the Tourna-
ment, at 2 p.m., 4 p.m. and
7:30 p.m. on Friday and at
8:30 a.m. and 10 a.m. on Sat-
urday.

Not only is the campus com-
munity cordially invited to ob-
serve any of the rounds, but we
urgently need many students to
volunteer to serve as time keep-
ers. It's an interesting job and
would be greatly appreciated by
Pi Alpha Phi. Please contact
Kathy Blee at extension 306,
307 and add your name to the
list.

The headquarters for the
Tournament will be in Rebekah
Recreation Room, and this is
where people can come to se-
cure schedules and places for
each round. Also, if there is
anyone from another campus
you wish to contact, you can
locate them through the head-
quarters.

In the recent history of the
Tournament Emory, the Uni-
versity of Georgia, Florida
State University, and Auburn
University and the Universi-
ty of South have been some
of the top teams.

In addition to these, other
schools being represented in-

Honest Rethought

by Betty Butler Chai rman
Religious Emphasis Week

The student of 1966 is an individual, questioning and re-examin-
ing his concerns and committments in the social and religious
worlds. He, more than likely, is actively involved in the metramor-
phosis of his community; and it is in terms of this physical and
intellectual action that the Religious Emphasis Week within a group
of such students must be examined and evaluated.

The crux of this consideration necessarily lies in the statement
of what a "Religious Emphasis Week" is. It is a week in which
there exists a concentrated and centrally focused theological dia-
logue and religious experience designed for a community of sensi-
tive human beings. There is then, the opportunity for community-
wide discussion and reaction a breadth of applicability not found

in any other campus situation. The presentation of the ideas which
are to initiate such a drawing together and exchange is made by a
man outstanding in his field. He advances his current ideas and
concerns in both ethics and metaphysics for the purpose of crea-
ting a basis for individual thought. The speaker, then sets himself
up as a sounding board for an intellectually and religously acute
community.

In order for us to achieve the fullness of opportunity and bene-
fit from this week, however, we must recognize the responsi-
bilities congruent to it. There is, first of all, the responsibility
of listening and of hearing. The subsequent responsibility lies
in valid and honest response to what has been heard. This includes
not only the opportunity to discuss frankly with the speaker in
the evening, informal meetings, but also the opportunity to con-
front, on the grounds of mutual involvement, one's fellow students.
We must, however, guard against the tendency to fall into complete
intellectual negativism: the validity of our discussion and investi-
gation lies in the coming to a more positive acceptance of our-
selves and our world.

With the putting on of these responsibilities within the frame-
work of our understanding i.of Religious Emphasis Week, the op-
portunities for and fulfillment of honest rethought and examina-
tion is achieved for each participating individual.

Affirmation: Vietnam

In the last fall quarter issue of the PROFILE we expressed
our belief in and support of the United States position in South Viet-
nam. We remain firm in that belief and are pleased to see, in "Af-
firmation: Vietnam" confirmation of our suspicions that a majority
of American college students stand with us.

We salute the Georgia students who have conceived and organized
this movement, and we urge all Agnes Scott students who support
their government in this war to work with "Affirmation: Vietnam."
To manifest one's convictions in action is a satisfying experience,
and that action will effect a change in the world, perhaps in even
more than the important area of public opinion.

Our support of the project has a two-fold basis. First, as we
have stated, the Southeast Asian war is both a practical and a mo-
ral cause. We recognize the necessity as sometimes outweighing
the horror of war. Our position agrees with that of "Affirmation:
Vietnam." in backing our government on this basic question.

Our second reason is a domestic one. We do not deny the right
of peace movements to speak out. The privilege of dissent is one
of the freedoms for which we fight in Vietnam. Too long, however,
the pacifist-isolationist-draft-dodger element has falsely domina-
ted the press and minds of American and world citizens.

For we believe this faction to be a minor one. Believing the
majority of American college students, and their elders, to be in
favor of U.S. military involvement, we join with this movement
whose purpose it is to present tangible proof of that majority opin-
ion.

Such positive action as "Aff irmation: Vietnam" should be the
role of the perceptive student, especially now, when we must sup-
port our nation as it battles to secure and protect the freedom of
man.

The Fall Issue Of Aurora

Over Christmas I read the Fall issue of
AURORA. I also read the Fall issue of the
HARVARD ADVOCATE. Of course, it isn't
fair to compare the contents of these two
journals of art. The ADVOCATE contribu-
tions ranged from spots by a Radcliffe sopho-
more to sketches by a Russian professor at
MfT to an especially prepared poem by
Marianne Moore.

But there are ways to compare these two
magazines which throw light on the qualities
of the Fall AURORA. The layouts of the two
are quite similar. Both are designed with
copy by one artist and art by another com-
bined to form an integral page design. In
both magazines, the combinations are such
that the artists' works enhance each other.
In this issue of AURORA, more than in any
past issues I've seen, art and copy are care-
fully and tastefully combined a clear vic-
tory over the problems of magazine layout.

The ADVOCATE used the conventional and
conservative Galvin type for its copy. (How
like them.) It is more readable than the
stark, modern type used in the AURORA. To
be stark and modern is all well and good
(and arty), but the prose pages are too
dense, and too pale.

There are occasional lines, occasional sen-
tences in the AURORA which are awkward
and amateurish, but on the whole the prose
and poetry are products of talented, skillful
writers. Almost all of the written art grap-
ples with The Big Issues, life, love, death,
beauty, those illusive questions we chase
through course after course, book after
book. At times the questions are pierced
with striking perception, notably in "The
Problem of Objectivity and Subjectivity,"
"Christus," and "A Medicine of Cherries."
It was good to meet Candace again.

The editors of AURORA are shrewd people.
They know whom we listen to, whom we re-
spect. They know that Dr. Greene and Debbie
Rosen will be read, and that each can con-
tribute unique work to an arts magazine.

One would suffer the loss of a vital side of
life in this college community if the crea-
tions of artistic fellow students were private
things. We are fortunate in that AURORA
gathers the best for us. We are more for-
tunate that its staff handles the material in
such a way that the creations retain their
privateness, the sum is not diminished by
bringing a creation into the light.

In the dancing mood? Try
listening to the daily perform-
ances of a Hungarian dance by
Listz or a German melody of

Etudes, dances, sonatas,

unique musical attraction.

The performance presents
itself complete not only by
means of the variety of selec-

from numerous states to dem-

MOCKINGS"

FROM
RAMONA

Did I tell you about the PRO-
FILE workshop? Oh, that's
right, I did call you. It was
everything I had hoped for. And
I didn't spill coffee on Felicia
or anyone else. I did overstep.
Yes, Carrington Wilson's toe.

There was a great group of
freshmen there. They are both
capable and enthusiastic. Some
are even more qualified than I
am for newspaper work. Among
these standouts is a former
editor of a first grade literary
magazine. I thought it was all
very beneficial, too, especially
the comic routine from Helen
Mann.

When I talked to you,, you
seemed a bit worried about
my grades. It's not all that bad,
but I was called in for a short
chat with Dean Kline. I am not
on the ineligible list, but as he
eloquently pointed out in our
three hours together, I am as
close as you can come.

As a matter of fact, he's
created a special list, just for
me. I really craved talking to
him; he's such a neat guy. And
I am going to keep my New
Year's resolution to study.

Speaking of resolutions, I
have broken 73 to date, but I
am determined to keep that one
about physical fitness. I've joi-
ned, that is practiced with, the
basketball team.

I think we will have a winning
season with these trick plays
we're getting up. One involves
locking me out of the gym. In
the other, I climb on a fellow
team members's shoulders.
We're still looking for a volun-
teer.

I'm also attending the self-
defense class. Already I'm
learning judo to go with my
U.N.C.L.E. gun. I was trying
out a hold on Cassandra and it
seemed pretty successful, un-
til suddenly she flipped me out
the door. Fortunately I landed
on my laundry bag and was un-
hurt. I think I'll pay more at-
tention in next week's class.

I miss you all very much.
And thanks for all you did for
me at Christmas.

Love.

DR. SHIVER HERE AWAITS a conference with a first year stu-
dent who is using her newly revised textbook.

Dr. Shiver Publishes
Revised German Textbook

Dr. Erika Meyer Shiver, Pro-
fessor and Chairman of the Ger-
man Department, has published
an extensive revision of her col-
lege textbook for first-year
German students.

This revision was tested in
the Agnes Scott classroom for
two years, and Dr. Shiver com-
ments, "I was very grateful for
the comments. You can't do
this sort of thing without class-
room testing."

The need for revision is pri-
marily due to the changes in
teaching methods since 1951
when the first edition was pub-
lished, since "the emphasis is
more and more on speaking,"
Dr. Shiver pointed out.

To fill this need, the new edi-
tion includes some 1800 pat-
tern drills, for classroom or
laboratory use. The book is
suitable for both the traditional
grammar or the modern audio-
lingual approach to the study
of German.

The first edition, heralded
by The German Quarterly as
"one of the best brief gram-
mars available," has been used

widely in colleges throughout
the nation, as well as at Agnes
Scott.

Dr. Shiver is also the author
of a second-year grammar , In-
termediate German and of six
German Graded Readers , all
published by Houghton Mifflin
Company. The readers, which
are "based on personal obser-
vation and experience," have
also been extensively used in
classrooms and even by the
U.S. Army in Germany.

Two of the six have been pub-
lished in England as well as
in America. Dr. Shiver's "real
joy" is that they have now been
done in braille.

.These readers were an in-
novation in German texts since
they offered mature subject
matter written in a simple
style.

"So often older books are like
children's books," Dr. Shiver
explained. "They do not dis-
tinguish between simple style
and simple subject matter."
Each of the readers discuss
some phase of life in Germany.
"It's a special kind of writing,"
commented Dr. Shiver.

which she considered "old
stand-bys," such as Farmer
in the Dell, or London Bridge.

"I made a discovery that
simple games and songs such
as Ten Little Indians are a way
children can learn important
things to count or to tell their
left hand from their right."

language shocks the patrons.
The main patrons of the pub are

Seniors Take First Place
As '65 Hockey Season Ends

The 1965 hockey season came
to a close on December 3 with
the final games being played be-
tween the seniors and the fresh-
men, the sophomores and the
juniors.

The senior team played as
well as they had ever played
during this game. The fresh-
men had only a slim chance
against the teamwork of Jan
Gaskell, Louise Smith, and Judy
Ahrano and the aggressive de-
fense of Wendy Williams, Alice
Davidson, and Debbie Rosen.

The remarkable freshman
goalie, Windy Lundy, had a
rough job defending her cage.
The seniors won 4-0.

The junior-sophomore game,
being a decisive one, was a
closely fought match. The jun-
ior defense, especially Mary
Helen Goodloe and Linda Coop-
er, held the sophomore forward
line in check during the entire
game and rarely allowed the
forwards to cross the 25 yard
line. The juniors won 2-1.

finances.

Dr. Phrydas will return on
February 9 to conclude this
series of classes. She will
hold an informal question and
answer period with the students
after a brief talk. At this final
class Mortar Board will pro-
vide a list of recommended
readings to aid the students.

Indeed the records of all four
teams support this hypothesis!

The seniors won the tourna-
ment with a record of five wins
and one loss. The juniors be-
came a strong team as the sea-
son progressed and were run-
ners-up with a record of three
wins, two losses, and one tie.

The sophomores, however,
showed much promise in the
first two games but slowed
down as the season progressed.
They posted a record of three
wins and three losses.

The freshmen had a promis-
ing team and did exceptionally
well against the juniors once
and the sophomores once; how-
ever, they finished the season
with five losses and one tie.

Special recognition should be
given to the players named to
the Varsity and Sub-Varsity
teams for 1965. They were se-
lected on the basis of votes
from the team members and the
final decisions of the hockey
managers.

Varsity members are Judy
Ahrano, Evelyn Angeletti, Lin-
da Cooper, Alice Davidson, Jan
Gaskell, Joan Kiker, Susan Lan-
drum, Gail Livingston, Windy
Lundy, Sally Rayburn, Lucy
Rose, Debbie Rosen, Louise
Smith, and Wendy Williams.

Sub-Varsity members are
Mary Helen Goodloe, Susan
Johnson, Eleanor McCallie,
Jane McCurdy, Day Morcock,
Gue Pardue, Kathey Stubbs,
Lynne Wilkins, Winky Wooten,
and Zolly Zollicoffer.

The team managers worked

'Affirmation: Vietnam' Movement
Slates Massive Assembly In Stadium

organization's purposes. Here southern troops are holding a captured viet cong soldier.

Key Role In Project

Georgia Youth Council
To Conduct Opinion Poll

The Georgia Youth Council,
a politically non-partisan or-
ganization of students who have
proved themselves to be lead-
ers in the state, is playing a
key role in the operations of
"Affirmation: Vietnam."

The Council is using its state-
wide structure to conduct an
opinion poll throughout Georgia
concerning the United States
government's commitment to
South Vietnam.

Civic clubs, schools, and oth-
er similar groups have been
contacted by the district chair-
men of the Council regarding
execution of the poll.

According to Tom King, state
chairman of the Council, can-
vassers will attempt to reach
"a representative number" of
Georgians. The poll will give
citizens of the state an oppor-
tunity to register feelings of
support or non-support for the
United States' commitment to
Vietnam.

Members of the Youth Council
are also participating in the
educational program of "Affir-
mation: Vietnam." Several
district chairmen are serving
as lecturers to civic groups
concerning the historical back-
grounds of the United States'
position in Vietnam.

The Council is also taking
part in the publicizing of all as-
pects of "Affirmation: Viet-
nam," including the assembly
in Atlanta Stadium February 12.

Members of the group voted
support for the movement early
in December of 1965, and all
officers agreed to join in the
effort.

Governor Carl Sanders was
instrumental in the establish-
ment of the Georgia Youth Coun-
cil last November. The group
consists of student leaders from
each of the ten Congressional
districts of the state; these

leaders are appointed to the
Council by Governor Sanders,
and run the organization.

According to its constitution,
the purpose of the Council is "to
become better citizens through
understanding of the affairs of
State Government; through par-
ticipation at the community
level to establish a better way
of life for all young people;
through assistance of govern-
mental departments and leaders
in matters concerning all
youth."

Officers are elected on state
and district levels.

Students Support
Vietnam Policies

"YOU'RE PART OF 'Affirmation: Vietnam' simply by being com-
mitted to it," Debbie Rosen explains to hall friends.

Emphatic public affirmation
of the United States commit-
ment to South Vietnam is the
goal of a three-phase state-
wide student movement re-
cently initiated at Emory Uni-
versity in Atlanta.

Named "Affirmation: Viet-
nam" by its student organiz-
ers, the movement will begin
with a comprehensive poll of
the residents of Georgia re-
garding their opinions of the
U.S. commitment in Vietnam
and will culminate in a mas-
sive assembly at Atlanta's new
athletic stadium.

The third point of the plan of
the organization is a statewide
speaker's bureau to help in-
form the public on the facts of
the Vietnam crisis abroad and
at home.

Non-Partisan

A politically non-partisan ef-
fort, "Affirmation: Vietnam"
has already received endorse-
ments and promises of support
from student leaders of all the
major colleges in Georgia.

Included among these sup-
porters are Dick Langford,
president of Emory's Student
Senate; George "Buddy" Dar-
den, President of the University
of Georgia Student Body, and
Howard Tellepson, President of
the Georgia Tech Student Body,
all of whom are charter mem-
bers of the student steering
committee.

One of the main purposes of
the organization is to present
to the public the various his-
torical bases for the United
States present position in the
Vietnam situation.

A statement prepared by the
student organizers of "Affir-
mation: Vietnam" explains,
"In recent months world opin-
ion has been focused on small
segments of the United States'
population who openly protest
their government's involvement
in Vietnam. These objectors
give strong voice to their con-
victions, and the nations of the
world, friend and foe alike,
must surely wonder at the
strength of conviction of those
who consider the United State's
commitment an undeniable and
irrevocable one.

"The opinion of the majority
cannot be obscured by the voice
of the minority. This minority
has a right to be heard and,
indeed, should and must be
heard. However, there rests
with the majority the task of
making known to the world that
our nation's commitment is
supported by her people and will

be fulfilled. This task can no
longer be ignored."

Three Prongs

According to its constitution,
"Affirmation: Vietnam"
through its three-pronged plan
of attack (consisting of the edu-
cational effort, the opinion poll,
and the assembly) will "ana-
lyze and present the factual
foundations of the position and
commitment of the United
States in the present Vietna-
mese conflict."

The accomplishment of these
goals will entail "the presen-
tation of public discussion
groups, forums, panels, lec-
tures, public assemblies, or
other similar programs, the
publication of papers, pamph-
lets, and books, and making
known the results of public
polls and other indicia of public
opinion," the constitution
states.

Leaders

Although the organization
consists entirely of college and
high school students of the state
of Georgia, it has received en-
dorsement and much support
from outstanding national lead-
ers of government, business
and the press.

Included among these are
Georgia's Governor Carl E.
Sanders and Senators Richard
B. Russell and Herman Tal-
madge; six Georgia congress-
men: G. Elliott Hagan, Howard
"Bo" Callaway, James A.
Mackay, Charles D. Weltner.
John James Flynt, Jr., Russell
Tuten and Augusta Courier Edi-
tor Roy Harris.

Other student leaders who
have pledged their support to
the program are Marvin Moate,
president of the University of
Georgia Student Senate; Char-
les MacDonald, president of the
Georgia State student body; Jim
Hambrick, president of the
Georgia State night school;
Frank Hughes, president of the
Oglethorpe student body; Deb-
bie Rosen, president of the Ag-
nes Scott student body; Jane-
Sampson, president of the Spel-
man student body; and Tommy
Tucker, president of the Emory
College Council.

Remar M. Sutton, Jr., a stu-
dent in the Business School at
Emory, is general chairman of
the project.

Georgia Chief Justice
Praises A:V Intention

Georgia Supreme Court Chief Justice W.H. Duckworth has re-
gistered his support of "Affirmation: Vietnam" in a letter to the
workers in the project.

The chief justice's letter reads, "I love peace. I abhor war.
But our liberties can survive only so long as Americans defend
it even unto death.

"Having experienced the grief of leaving home and loved ones,"
the letter continues, "and peace and security, to join American
fighting men who were dying to defend our land, I am simply
unable to understand how any American can enjoy liberty and
security, and at the same time, ignore the solemn duty to defend
that liberty.

"IT IS TOO LATE now to debate the wisdom of our government
in going into South Vietnam in fulfillment of its pledged word.
Many of us doubted if we should have made that decision.

"But now demonstrations against what we are doing are not
debating the decision to do it but are insulting our men who are dy-
ing to defend our country including the demonstrators, and falsely
picturing America as a divided ungrateful Nation, thus giving en-
couragement to the enemy to prolong the war and kill more of our
patriotic citizens who are away from home and fighting for us.

"ONLY AN obstinate refusal to read and heed repeated avowals
of communist leaders to conquer and bury us, and to observe the
successions of their subjugations of weak nations can enable any
American to agitate against our country in this sad hour of misery
and death that our men are enduring.

"All power to you, and you can tell the world that I am whole-
heartedly with you. Good luck and God bless you." (Emory Wheel)

Expert Discusses
Viet War Policies

(Dr. Donald Weatherby is an
assistant professor of interna-
tional studies at the University
of South Carolina. He lived in
Southeast Asia from 1957-1961
and has traveled extensively in
the area. His field of speciali-
zation is Southeast Asian poli-
tics, and he is presently work-
ing on a book to be published
next June on proto-insurgency
in Thailand.)

Q. Do you hold to the "domino
theory?"

A: I do not hold to the "domi-
no theory". . .1 do hold to the
idea that any demonstration of
American weakness in Viet Nam
after the terrible performance
that we put on in Laos 1960-
61 would seriously jeopardise
our security system, and would
throw a great deal of doubt on
the worth of the American al-
liance to our friends in Asia.

I would not argue that if Viet
Nam falls then automatically
Cambodia will fall, then Thai-
land will fall, then Malaysia
will fall. I will say that in the
Vietnamese case a failure of
the United States would have
serious repercussions that
would probably leave our own

position in Asia very weak.

Q: Do you put any faith in the
theory that the United States has
a role as a "world policeman"?

A: No, I do not, I won't buy
that,. . .but I do think that
. . .our interests in non-com-
munist Southeast Asia are as
legitimate or even more legiti-
mate than the interests of the
communist states of Asia in de-
stroying the non-communist re-
gime.

Q: What is the extent of the
danger of massive Chinese in-
tervention?

A: I think very remote, for a
number of reasons. In the first
place, the immense logistical
problem the Chinese would have
to face. For
the Chinese to intervene in South
Viet Nam they'd have to move
700 miles.

Now, the Chinese soldier,
even at a forced pace, can only
travel 12 miles a day. He-
has to be fed, he has to be sup-
plied with ammunition and so
forth, and our air superiority,
I think, would mean that Chi-
nese intervention in South Viet
Nam is nonsensical. . .
(From Emory Wheel)

cember, is primarily concern-
ed with affirmation of the United
States' committment in Viet
Nam.

"It is a mainstream type of
movement," said Debbie Rosen,
a member of the board of direc-
tors. She stresses that "it is
not a protest," but an affirma-
tion that "we're there now and
do have a committment to the
South Vietnamsse."

The program is three-fold.
The Georgia Youth Council is
in charge of a public opinion
poll, taken all over Georgia, in
communities and colleges.
Freshman Nancy Still is active
in this area of the organiza-
tion.

A second aspect is educa-
tional. Knowledgeable and
trained Georgia college stu-
dents are speaking to business
and civic groups, and to other
campuses outside of Georgia.
They present a history of the
United States' place in Viet
Nam and explain the purpose of
"Affirmation: Viet Nam."

The third major job of the or-
ganization is termed by Debbie
Rosen as "very exciting." On
Feb. 12 at 2 p.m. there is to be
a massive assembly in the At-
lanta Stadium as a part of the
affirmation. Governor San-

ders, several Georgia congres-
men and senators are sched-
uled to speak, and possibly a
representative from Viet Nam.

The endorsement of the or-
ganization has been widespread.
"We have had no refusal of
sponsorship yet," Debbie
pointed out.

Sarah Uzzell, on the board of
directors of "Affirmation: Viet
Nam" explained, "we are not
seeking to affect any legislation,
or to endorse any political par-
ty. People of both parties arc
participating."

Sarah lists three purposes of
the organization. Primary is
the affirmation of the United
States' committment in Viet
Nam "as stated by three pres-
idents." It is hoped that the
news of such a movement will
bolster the morale of the men
fighting there.

It further seeks to combat
some of the publicity given
"peace" demonstrators and
draft-card burners, "which we
feel," commented Sarah Uz-
zell, "are plainly known to be
from only a minority of stu-
dents."

National and international
publicity is important, accord-
ing to Debbie Rosen. "That the
Vietnamese people hear what

we have to say is a large part
of it," she commented. She
believes that the affirmation
is more indicative of American
thought than that of widely-
publicized "peace" marchers.

The leaders of "Affirmation:
Viet Nam" stress the fact that
it is a non-partisan organiza-
tion, supporting only the United
States' committment, not the
specific policies in the war.
"How it is done is not a part of
our program," stated Debbie.

Members of both political
parties have agreed to speak at
the assembly on Feb. 12, and
students from both parties arc
working together. "Even in this
wide spectrum of opinion there
is still a great majority of
people who find they can agree
on this affirmation," said Deb-
bie.

Mary Brown, also active in
helping, sees two possible dan-
gers. "It is important not to
over-simplify the issues invol-
ved," she warns. "It is im-
portant to recognize the com-
plexity of our involvement. Sec-
ondly, we should try to keep it
as much as possible in the
hands of students. There is a
danger of its becoming a polit-
ical movement, and it is not
that at all."

Remar M. Sutton, Jr.

A:V Director Feels That
Majority Must Speak Out

"Affirmation: Vietnam" is
being organized because of a
fact of human nature.

This fact is that persons who
hold a minority opinion regard-
ing a certain political situation
or moral question are always
the first to demonstrate in the
streets to show their position.
They do this simply because
they are in the minority, and
demonstration is the most ef-
fective way of making their
feelings known.

Persons who hold to the
opinion of the majority, on the
other hand, seldom demon-
strate, because they feel secure
in their position.

THEREFORE, it is mem-
bers of the extreme right and
left groups who have thus far
done the only salient demon-
strating regarding the United
States government's commit-
ment to Vietnam. They have
registered the opinion , via the
press and other international
news media, that the United
States should withdraw from
Vietnam whether for moral
or political reasons.

SINCE THIS is so, Ameri-
can citizens who are members
of the majority i.e., those who
support our government's com-
mitment to Vietnam have the
responsibility of showing their
position, in order to coun-
teract the false impression
given to foreign countries that
general opinion within the
United States is radically di-
verse.

"AFFIRMATION: Vietnam"
proposes to show as many
people as possible that in at
least one state the mass ma-
jority of the citizens support
their government and its com-
mitment even if they happen
to be opposed to war, or if

they disagree with elements
of the government's policy.

The movement will accom-
plish this purpose by three
methods: a statewide opinion
poll, a speakers bureau and
an assembly at Atlanta Stadium.

The poll will reach as many
people in Georgia as possible,
to quantify its citizens' opin-
ions concerning Vietnam. The
speakers bureau will send stu-
dents from twentv-five diffe-

rent colleges to speak to clubs
and other organizations on the
historical position of the Uni-
ted 4 States in Vietnam.

The assembly will be the
focal point of the movement.
There, the results of the poll
will be presented to a govern-
ment representative, and the
affirmation of Georgia's sup-
port of our country's commit-
ment will be symbolically com-
pleted. (Emory Wheel)

"WE WANT TO PORTRAY THE image of decent American stu-
dents," said Sarah Uzzell, an active supporter of "Affirmation:
Vietnam."

Their conversation turned to
the Vietnam situation. Sutton,
commenting on the desirability
of a student movement which
would demonstrate the opinion
of the majority of Americans
regarding the U.S. commit-
ment, said, "Why don't we do
something like this?"

Brunson said, "I think you've
got something there," and both
students drove to the Emory
University campus and held
conferences with President
Sanford S. Atwood and a num-
ber of student leaders. All were
enthused by the idea.

Immediately the organizers
made move to obtain support
from leaders in the fields of
student government, business,
polities and press, and AFFIR-
MATION;. VIETNAM had be-
gun to move toward realization.

General Chairman Sutton,
commenting on the philosophy
behind the project, said, "Any-
one who has ever travelled
overseas realizes that many
events of no significance what-
soever in the United States take
on great proportions abroad.

"Because foreigners exag-
gerate the importance of these
demonstrations, it is our re-
sponsibility to show them what
the true story is. In addition,
we are trying educationally to
help the people understand why
we are in Vietnam."

Protestors Contribute
"Personal Involvement"

(AC) Sure, we appreciate the anti-war protestors. But why?
Not because they have "made Americans aware of how important
morale is overseas and caused united supporters of our boys over
there."

And we don't appreciate the anti-war protestors because their
efforts have "backfired." That's ridiculous.

The reasons we appreciate some of these protestors is that
they represent some very encouraging signs.

FIRST, THESE people are aware of and concerned with national
policy. Unfortunately, American people are traditionally pre-
occupied with themselves and are willing to let the rest of the
world go to hell. And, in many cases, our foreign policy reflects
this attitude.

SECOND, THE protestors are utilizing their awareness and con
cern by voicing, strongly and pointedly, their feelings. By this
action, they are "watchdogging" our government and the poli-
cies it makes.

THIRD, AND perhaps most important they represent a trend in
America toward personal involvement of citizens in what the
country is doing. Perhaps the protestors are accepting their share
of the responsibility everyone must bear for the actions of his
own community toward other communities.

If we appreciate what the protestors are doing, even if we don't
agree with their stands, we can stop calling them names and
give them credit for doing a job that our schools, newspapers,
political leaders, and churches have failed to do.

In a letter to General Chair-
man Remar M. Sutton, J r com-
mending the project, Governor
Sanders wrote, "The great and
good benefit of Affirmation: Viet
nam is that it brings into clear
focus the need that we have for
voicing to the many thousands of
American boys on the battle
front our support, our good
wishes, and our prayers.

"I wish you well in the task
you have undertaken" continues
Sanders' letter, "and I com-
mend you and your associates
for what you are doing and what
you seek to accomplish.

"Both as Governor and as a
citizen, I urge all Georgians and
all Americans to likewise
pledge their support and com-
fort to this movement, to our
troops in South Vietnam, and to
the cause of liberty and free-
dom and the protection of the
American way of life."

Georgia Senator B. Russell,
also writing to Chairman Sut
ton, stated, "...I am sure that
the movement will spread
throughout the state, will be
embraced by student bodies of
all. of our educational institu-
tions and will be applauded and
supported by our people gen-
erally.

"As chairman of the Senate
Committee on Armed Services,
I am of course familiar with the
day to day conduct of this dir-
ty, nasty war for the libera-
tion of South Vietnam," the
senator's letter continues.

"One of the greatest ob-
stacles to success has been
the impression created by a
handful of misguided off-beats
that there is a considerable
school of thought in our country

who are opposed to the war and
are hoping for the defeat of our
country.

"When the spark that you have
alighted spreads throughout the
state, it will indicate beyond
per-adventure the insignificant
minority that are opposed to the
discharge of our commitment
in Vietnam.

Carl Vinson, former United
States congressman who served
as chairman of the House Com-
mittee on Armed Services, has
endorsed the project.

Retired General Lucius D u
Clay has also expressed his
pleasure with the movement. In
a letter to Sutton, Clay stated,
"lt has been very worthwhile to

"...the greatest danger of
all would be to do noth ing. The
cost of freedom is always high,
but Americans have always
paid it. One path we shall
never choose is. . .the path of
surrender or submission. Our
goal is not the victory of
might, but the vindication of
right."

"Certainly," the letter goes

Americans who believe in free-

indeed realize that what we are
doing in Vietnam has the sup-

Winthrop College Trustees
Set Self Study On Teaching

Rock Hill, S.C.-(L.P.)-- The

Board of Trustees of Winthrop
College has recommended that
the college engage in a self
study of teaching this year. The
board recently proposed that the
entire faculty devote time and
effort to the task of improving
teaching on campus.

In a report to the board, Dr.
Walter Douglas Smith, dean of
the college, said that the "Ma-
jor responsibility of the Win-
throp professor is teaching, and
that its improvement might
come about if the faculty should
carry out a self study. This
study," he added, "is not too

N.C. Eases
Tough Ban
On Speakers

North Carolina's General As-
sembly has amended its contro-
versial speaker ban law into
impotence .

Formerly the toughest of such
laws in the country, it is now
only a hollow shell on the books
to appease a certain element in
the state, says The National Ob-
server.

The ban, passed hurriedly at
the end of the 1963 session, pro-
hibited Communists and Fifth
Amendment pleaders from
speaking on any of 11 state-
supported colleges, although it
was directed at the University
of North Carolina at Chapel
Hill.

This original law aroused
much protest among students
and other citizens, as well as
a threat of loss of accredita-
tion of the schools.

As amended recently, it re-
turns control over speakers to
the various boards of trustees
of the schools who are asked
to adopt statement opposing
communism and provide that
appearances by such speakers
be "infrequent."

unlike a self study carried out
in 1960, however, the present
study will be limited to the
teaching process."

Dean Smith further reported,
"In all the proceedings of the
college, teaching receives sur-
prisingly little attention. Most
of us tend to focus attention on
such matters as grades, class-
room and laboratory space and
equipment, course titles and
numbers, social activities, and
the like. What the professor
does in the classroom is rare-
ly the subject of debate or dis-
cussion.

"Winthrop students have from
time to time voiced questions
about our teaching. They, above
all people, know what we are
doing in the classroom and their
performance is evidence of our
success. Students will be in-
volved in the self study after a

Students For
Extending Viet
War Into North

A majority of the country's
college students believe that if
there is no negotiated settle-
ment in Viet Nam before the
end of this year, the U.S. should
push the war into North Viet
Nam, according to a survey
taken by Playboy magazine.

An even larger percentage
of students believe we should
extend bombing raids to vital
installations in Hanoi and other
North Viet Namese cities.

The survey finds that the
majority of faculty members
polled do not take this 'ag-
gressive" attitude and believe
that military actions should be
confined to South Viet Nam only.

The Playboy College Opinion
Survey is based on responses
from a representative sample
of approximately 1,000 students
from all classes, ages and back-
grounds, who serve as a perma-
nent "sounding board" on
questions of current interests.

"Last year the Southern Re-
gional Education Board carried
on a study of undergraduate
teaching," Dean Smith stated.

However, "some of us felt that
this study did not come to grips
with the real issues involved
or have a strong enough design.
We believe that the self study
procedure which has evolved
over the last decade in the
Southern Association of Col-
leges and Schools is a most
promising procedure because it
involves the essential people:
faculty and students."

EXPOSE: BLIND DATES

I don't know how this happens, but every
year a new crop of people gets sucked into
blind dates. For some reason the kind upper-
classmen, who tell the freshmen not to buy
the elevator passes and not to cut Prof.
Smith's course and #here to drink and what
kind of clothes to wear, never warn their
friends off the blind date.

A careful survey of my roommates proves
that only 0.15 per cent of blind dates are
MSEs (Minimal Survival Events). This means
you (a) did not throw up on sight, (b) did
not throw up when she opened her mouth,
and (c) made it home without pledging perma-
nent celibacy. Yet the same event repeats
itself with the grim inevitability of winter
solstice (neat literary allusion).

So here's an easy guide for young men on
what to avoid, with a short suggestion for
counter- plays to the dormitory den mothers
who will not rest happy until every resident
who can walk, breathe, and simper spends
Saturday night in the company of some hapless
male who didn't get out of the way in time.

You know your "buddy?" the nice girl
who is on 13 committees and is your real
friend and who laughs at your jokes and who
wears cardigan sweaters and is always ready
to solve your problems? Immediately act as
though she is a carrier of the four worst
communicable diseases you can think of.
Otherwise she will Fix You Up. But Good.
She will get you a Date for the weekend.

When she calls you, hang up.

If you do not hang up fast enough, and she
tells you that Esther or Sandra or Maureen
would love to go out with you next weekend,
ask her if Ester or Maureen or Sandra is
attractive. Any one of the following answers
and you Win. That is, you Lose. Big:

"Oh she's a doll."

"All the girls in the dorm love her."
"She's a marvelous cook."
"Do you like good bassoonmusic?"
"She has a warm personality."
"She's a fun person." (this is It, boy.
She has seven teeth in her head and looks

like an unsuccessful Metrecal experiment.)
She's a doll."

If you get roped into this thing, make sure
you're on a double date with a friend you
can trust. To be alone witu a blind date has
now superseded, or supplemented, M.
Sartre's definition of Hell: it is not just
other people it is when you and your b.d.
are the only people. A friend can be talk-
ed to, (b) invent an excuse for an early
evening ("Gee, Esther, Sandra, Mureen, it's
too bad George and I have to observe that
eclipse tomorrow morning") and (c) in an
emergency do you a favor like stab you in the
neck with a fork to blow the whistle on the
whole thing.

R>r the dormitory den mothers: it is
clear that sooner or later the guys are going
to figure out this racket. Next time try these
telephone responses to crucial question: is
she attractive:

"Well, if you like the Playmate type she's
okay, but I personally..."

"That's what I don't understand. She's
really not, but the way these guys follow her
around..."

"I don't know her well. She's sort of ...quiet.
A little like Julie London."

"Well, she has this psychological problem.
All she has to do is look at a guy, and..."

"No, she isn't. She's rather homely. But
if she doesn't get a date this weekend, she
will kill herself (the appeal to guilt has not
failed in recorded history)."

The ultimate solution for this terror may be
the computerized date, or it may be that
when people come to college they will be old
enough and adult enough to plan their own
social lives. But I somehow suspect that in
50 years I will stagger back to my Alma Mater
to hear some kindly, friendly girl telling her
nervous male buddy that "Sandra is a doll,
and all the girls in the dorm love her, and
she makes all her own cookies, and. .

(Editor's Note: Do boys shrink from your
offers to get them dates? This may be why.)

Advertising Mecca ForGrads

For the competent, comely
and career-minded, the vast
field of advertising opens its
greedy doors. It is hungry for
talent, creativity, energy and
for young people.

College graduates, in par-
ticular, seem to gravitate to-
ward the raecca of advertising,
and from all reports their ta-
lent is keeping Madison Avenue
alive.

Interestingly enough, with the
high degree of success possible
for college grads, the amount

of training is minimal indeed.

The use of media ranges from
a two-line advertisement in a
newspaper to a spectacular
million dollar TV show.

And from all appearances, the
collective emphasis seems to be
youth. Executives in powerful
positions are often under, or in,
their early thirties.

Before you commit yourself
to an advertising career, how-
ever, it is important to study
its structure and see if there
are areas of advertising that
will be suitable to your per-
sonality and talents.

Examine the functions of the
different departments. Be your
own researcher and read about
advertising agencies.

You may find that you do not
want to write copy but prefer

to train for a job as account
executive. Or you may gravitate
toward the art and production
departments.

If you enjoy figures, market
research or media may offer
more potential. If you like ad-
ministrating, perhaps traffic
is the answer. And if you're
lucky, you may hit radio and
TV.

Most advertising jobs are
with advertising agencies. How-
ever, some of the large business
organizations have their own
advertising departments, as do
book, magazine and newspaper
publishers.

These departments are
sometimes self-contained with
their own copy-writing, media,
research and production staffs.

WINTER QUARTER'S SELF-DEFENSE classes are now in full
swing; Detective Wagner instructs Lucy Rose in the art of fighting
off an attacker. Athletic Association sponsors the classes.

Womanly Art Of Self-Defense

Over 80 Students In
AA-Sponsored Course

Thursday night, January 6,
A A introduced a self-defense
course to the Agnes Scott cam-
pus as part of the board's ef-
fort to educate the college com-
munity in fields outside of the

sports offered at Scott. This
program is the first of many
that A A will sponsor during the
year, says course coordinator
Mary Barnett.

Detective Henry Wagner of
the DeKalb County Police Di-
vision and assistant Judy Smith
of the Atlanta Welfare Depart-
ment delivered a lecture on
self-protection as well as a
demonstration to the 85 parti-
cipants.

Detective Wagner found him-
self in awkward positions on the
gym floor several times as
Judy and various brave volun-
teers managed to execute some
of the many throws that were
presented.

Those who attended the hour
session were instructed in how
to handle an attacker with a
knife-, a throat choker, and a
bear-hug executioner as well
as how to "release many un-
usually strong holds which the
unexpecting Scott ie might be
subjected to some day," Mary
says.

Although only two-thirds of

the expected 125 students show-
ed up on Thursday evening,
Mary predicts from the enthu-
siasm produced by the first
meeting that all will attend next
Tuesday.

To avoid any chaos that may
develop from too large a num-
ber of interested persons, De-
tective Wagner has requested
that the girls be broken up into
four groups of 25 with each se-
parate group meeting on one of
the four remaining nights sche-
duled for the course.

The lists of the individual
groups will be posted with the
night they are expected to meet
in the mail room on the A A bul-
letin board.

If the Winter Quarter pro-
gram goes as well as planned
and there are students or fa-
culty members who did not get
to sign up and are still interes-
ted, the entire program may be
presented again in the Spring
Quarter.

The other classes will be held
on January 11, 12, 25, and
27. All of the classes will
begin at 7 p.m. and are for one
hour.

Counibus is an organization
which deals with actvities for
the Campus Crusade for Christ
International. It is an interde-
nominational group which is
trying to acquaint people with
the basic principles of Chris-
tianity. "The Campus Crusade
for Christ places a strong,
wholesome emphasis upon the
living Christ."

The organization began on the
UCLA campus in 1951. There
are 400 trained staff members
at the present-some attended
seminaries-and they hope to in-
crease to 1000 by 1967. They
are now in 12 countries, and
hope to reach the whole world.

Counibus is interested in
reaching the people on college
and university campuses, and
those in the business world be-
tween the ages of 18 and 28.
The staff in the Atlanta Area
consists of seven members who
are on campus every Tuesday
at 12:30 for lunch to meet stu-
dents who are interested.

On Thursday nights at 7:30,
there are study groups which
meet at Tech. The topic of
these study groups is "College
Life." Their purpose is to in-
crease interest in and know-
ledge of the Bible and Chris-
tian teachings, and to bring
people to greater Christian ma-
turity. The study groups ane

At least that seems to be the
case since the University began
putting draft deferment forms,
bureaucratically known as "SSS

in registration packets sent to
women students.

Happily, most of the women

by the complete disregard of
their sex. One smiling frosh
coed said, "I thought it was a
sign of their non-discrimina-

Each Sunday night at 9:00
there is a meeting of Couni-

to provide fellowship with other
Christians.

The Ten Basic Steps to Chris-
tian Maturity, is a series of
books put out by the organi-
zation. Each deals with a dif-
ferent topic. The monthly ma-
gazine is entitled, "Challenge".
It features different articles by
student and business leaders
who have accepted Christ
through the C.C.C. One article,
for instance, was written by the
President of the Student Body
at Berkeley, who became a
Christian during the riots. If

dividual pages from the Bible,
the Koran and other works dat-
ing back hundreds of years.

After a trip to the Holy Land,
Mr. Slotkin felt that stones from
no more than 20 feet where
Jesus lay in the maager would
have great meaning for many
Christians. Consequently, he
arranged to bring 2 1/2 tons of
the rock to the United States
and had the rock broken up in-
to pieces weighing about four
ounces each. These were
mounted on cardboard to be
given away.

Another of his adventures
consisted of the search for the
tomb of St. Joseph, husband of
Mary, mother of Jesus.

One of his philanthropic en-
deavours is a clinic conducted
by Slotkin for underprivileged,
disfigured persons who want
plastic surgery. Slotkin foots all
or part of the bill, depending
upon what he learns from the
charity applicant s in a quick
but penetrating interview.

Mr. Slotkin will be in At-
lanta for approximately 10 days
and will be speaking to several
different organizations in this
area.

Drama "Dr. Faustus

Dr. Peter Arnott will present
Marlowe's "Cr. Faustus" in
his Marionette Theatre on the
Dana stage, January 26, at 8:15
p.m. The performance is open
to the public, but children un-
der 12 will not be admitted as
it is "serious dramatic en-
tertainment" according to Dr.
Arnott.

This is a one-man perfor-
mance. Dr. Arnott created the
puppets and their costumes and
built the state. He manipulates
the strings and recites every
line during a performance

Born and educated in Great
Britian, Dr. Arnott came to the
United States in 1958. He is
currently Assistant professor
of Classics and Speech and
Drama at Indiana University.

The Marionette Theatre of
Peter Arnott originated in 1949
as an exploration of the po-
tentialities of puppetry in the
field of serious drama and par-
ticularly Greek plays.

The theatre can (1) present
formal drama without the na-
turalistic influence of actors
and directors, (2) present plays
usually read, not performed,
and (3) take drama to areas
where theatre is not seen at
all due to the cost of import-
ing a live company.

Dr. Arnott has given per-

formances in cities and univer-
sities all over Europe and the
United States. His repetoire
includes "Oedipus the King"
(which he will give at Georgia
Tech January 28) "Medea,"
"Volpone", and "Les Four-
beries de Scapin." He also
plays a regular summer ses-
sion at the Oregon Shakespeare
Festival.

Miss Elvena Green, who has
seen a performance of the Ma-
rionette Theatre, commented
that not only were the puppets
fascinating but "the lines are
beautifully, vividly given."

Bond Case Appalling

The action of the Georgia General Assembly in refusing his
rightful place to representative-elect Julian Bond is appalling.
We are not here changing our position on the war in Vietnam. On
the contrary, we do not agree with the statements of either the
Student Nonviolent Co-ordinating Committee or Mr. Bond; we do
not side with peace movements or draft-card burners. However,
they have their right to speak.

It seems that these card-burners are allowed more rights
than Bond, He is a properly elected representative, chosen by
his own people who were aware of his liberal stands. If he is
disqualified because of his position with SNCC, that question
should have been decided last spring before the election.

His statement this month did not include plans to burn his own
draft card. He praised those who so defend their convictions and,
as a conscientious objector to war, proposed additional areas to
the present three where conscientious objectors may fulfill their
service obligations. Such positive, constructive action hardly qua-
lifies as treason.

Perhaps our quarrel is with a state constitution that allows
removal of an elected reDresentative of that state's people on
no more definite grounds than used* Something is wrong. Such a
provision opens the way to thoughtless abuse, and we believe
6uch abuse is evident here.

The worst development of the situation is that the issue has
been falsely made a racial one. The Committee, which has been
responsible for some rather effective work in the civil rights
struggle, probably went too far by officially involving itself in
foreign relations. But blame lies equally on the other side, where
too many people have taken the opportunity to attack Bond on racial
grounds and to condemn SNCC and all it stands for.

This action of the General Assembly has destroyed something
in Atlanta's reasonably good race relations and in the legal rights
of Julian Bond.

Tuition Tax Credits
Important To Schools

Tuition tax credit is the most important idea to have evolved
during the post World War Ilyears. This was the opinion of Oliver
C. Carmichael Jr., chairman of the board of the Associates
Investment Company in South Bend, Indiana, when he addressed
the Educational Writers Association at its 1965 annual meeting.
His report is summarized below.

Education directly effects our national growth. In the United
States we are presently educating a higher percentage of our
people than any nation in history. The unique factor which en-
ables us to do this is the diversity of our system of higher ed-
ucation the publically supported institution vs. the private in-
stitution which may or may not be denominational.

However, recently this mainspring of our educational system
has been threatened by rising costs which have been, for the most
part, met by an increase in tuitions. These increases have not
been based on what the population can bear, but instead on the
increasing expense of providing education to more students with
no sacrifice in quality. And there is no evidence which contra-
dicts the theory that tuitions and fees will continue to rise.
As this happens, it becomes increasingly difficult for more and
more parents to finance their children's college education.

There is, however, a solution to this problem which lies in
the tax credit concept. The most important feature of this is
the tution tax credit. An example of this is seen in the Ribicoff
Bill. Here credit is based on the first $1500 paid for tuition,
fees, books, and supplies per student at a college or university.
In this bill the amount of credit is 75 per cent of the first $200
paid, 25 per cent of the next $300, and 10 per cent of the next
$1000. This credit is not a deduction. Instead, the credit is sub-
stracted from the amount of taxes the individual or parent would
owe.

Who would benefit from this program? Sixty-two percent of
the dollar benefit would go to families with incomes between
$3,000 and $10,000. These families make up 62 per cent of our
population. Students of limited means would also be aided be-
cause of the millions of dollars of scholarship aid which could
be liberated to help them. For instance, scholarship-holding
students from middle income families could reduce their scho-
larships to the extent that they received tax credits. This would
permit the institutions to make more generous and selective
use of currently available scholarship funds.

Tuition tax credits will help. "Its benefits will devolve fairly
and impartially upon the parents of students at all types of in-
stitutions. Its fruits will serve national interest by helping to
provide better education to more of our young men and women
despite rapidly rising costs. It will strengthen the diversity
which has been the bedrock of our educational excellence.'

CA Offers New Tutorial
Service Opportunities

To strive to create and dis-
cover novel service projects ,
the Agnes Scott Christian As-
sociation looked in the Decatur
area for needs, which, accord-
ing to Kathy Stubbs, director of
the service projects," are in
our own neighborhood, and are
vital to the overshadowing of
ignorance and unhappiness. CA
desires service efforts to be re -
levent."

"Because the most success-
ful project by far sponsored by
CA has been the tutorial ones,
where there is a personal re-
lationship, a one to one ratio,
and an individual responsibility
for each student involved," na-
thy commented, 'Sve have dis-
covered three new projects
which function on the same
scale as these projects."

The first new service oppor-
tunity calls for students to tutor
children in the Kirkwood area
ranging from grammar school
to high school age. Working in
conjunction with the Kirkwood
Christian Center, the Rev. Law-
rence Robinson and the Rev.
Daniel Bryan, the ASC students
will tutor in basic subjects or
teach music lessons one after-
noon per week for one hour.
"Arrangements can be made di-
rectly with the Center by call-
ing 377-6353," instructed Ka-
they.

Decatur High

To work with Negro students
who have transferred to Deca-
tur High School epitomizes the
second project. "Math tutors
are especially needed, but any
field can be used greatly," said
Kathey. The tutoring will be
from 7-8:30 PM on Wednesdays
at the Trinity Presbyterian
Church behind Decatur High.

A workshop for interested
participants is scheduled for
January 29 at the St. Bartho-
lomew Episcopal Church from
12-3 p.m. "The kids have the
ability but need attention to
develop it, " observed Kathey.
"I find this highly rewarding,
for working with the same child,
the progress in school work can
be watched."

The third project, created and
initaited by Kathey, involves
recreational work with Negro

Wolf Whistle
Bad Taste At
Fashion Show

Dear Editor.

Styles change but etiquette
does notl A wolf whistle from a
lady is certainly not "in vo-
gue" at a fashion show.

At the recent bridal showing
many of those present were to-

children in the Decatur area.
"The project is still on the
drawing board," commented
Kathey. "Definite arrange-
ments for a meeting place have
not been made, but we hope to
use the AA cabin.

"In this way we will give the

kids more opportunities and we
will give the Scott girls a chance
to work with children and for-
get their studies for a while.
We hope to take these kids on
tours of Atlanta including the
zoo, the capital, or the Coca-
Cola plant."

C.A. HOPES TO HELP such Decatur children as these through
its new service projects.

Intrigue Marks "Spy; r
Burton's Acting Good

by Virg

"Intrigue" is perhaps the
best word to describe the plot
of the film rendition of John
Le Carre's best seller, The
Spy Who Came in From the
Cold. From its tense beginning
until its bizarre ending, the
film is a challenge to all those
in the audience who haven't read
the book.

inia Russell

Richard Burton, playing the
part of "the spy," hands in a
top flight performance. His cha-
racter is that of a moody, sto-
lid man who occasionally alle-
viates the tension by exercising
his dry wit.

Claire Bloom plays the part
of Burton's librarian lover who
is also a member of the Com-
munist party. She is consistant-
ly an idealistic, naive charac-
ter.

ture act of one student. We feel
this display of crudeness was
a reflection on the entire stu-

Perhaps a change in curri-
culum should include a course
in manners.

Action switches from London
to Holland to Berlin's Wall
in swift sequence. The great
amount of action, added to the
complexity of the plot makes
the movie seem much shorter
than it actually is.

Much of the fun of watching
is working out the plot and
deciding who is on whose side.
For a good, believable game
of cops and robbers, "The
Spy Who Came In From the
Cold" is the movie to see.

ment of Spanish at Agnes Scott
College, has recently been elec-
ted president of the Georgia
chapter of the American Asso-
ciation of Teachers of Spanish
and Portuguese for the 1966-67
term.

Mrs. Dunstan is well-known
in the Atlanta community for
her distinguished service in
the field of education. In 1963
she held the honor of Atlanta's
Woman of the Year in Education.

Under her leadership the
local chapter of the American
Association of University Wo-
men conducted a conference
on the school dropout problem
in the Atlanta area.

Now, Mrs. Dunstan is ser-
ving as the Area Representative
for World Problems for the
Georgia Division of the AAUW
and has also been appointed by
Congressman James Mackay to
serve as the chairman for the
Latin American section on the
Panel on International Affairs.

Over the years, Mrs. Dun-
stan has taken an active role
in stimulating public interest
into foreign cultures by speak-
ing to local groups and plan-
ning educational programs to
promote wider knowledge of
other countries.

The Dunstans have opened
their home to foreign students
on numerous occasions, and
since 1952 have provided a
"home away from home" for
nineteen foreign students.

by its team which came in se-
cond and especially by Ann

won as the first place- affirma-
tive team.

Missing Hub Property
Can't Be "Mistake"

by Sonja Nelson

This is winter quarter at Ag-
nes Scott. And somethings have
gone wrong. Some serious
things and some very serious
things. The weather is ugly.
The external fact of a slacken-
ed social life is certainly de-
pressing. These things are se-
rious. We all feel them.

Yet there is one very serious
thing that may have been over-
looks because at first glance it
seems trivial. Some things are
missing on this campus. And
they aren't "intangibles." At
this point one can't continue to
believe these things have simply
been "misplaced."

They are small things. They
are cards and magazines taken
from the Hub. Twelve decks of
cards in one quarter nearly
a deck per week. Thirty dollars'
worth of magazines which week
after week continue to disap-
pear.

These items are clearly mar-
ked as the property of the Hub.

There is no question of "mis-
taken identity."

The plain fact is that cards
and magazines are being sto-
len from the Hub petty thefts
by petty thieves. And this is
very serious. What sort of
person sells his integrity so
cheaply? What is the reaction
of the campus to be?

Shall Social Council continue
to spend the money of the stu-
dent body to supply materials
to be stolen? Must we degrade
ourselves by dorm searches?

Judicial Council has remin-
ded the campus that stealing
is punishable by expulsion. But
it is going on right now. And
it is very serious.

Who are these people? What
are they thinking? Who has these
cards and magazines? Why have
they taken them? Whoever does
have them needs badly to ask
herself what has gone wrong
this winter quarter at Agnes
Scott?

Conservatives Hear
About Rhodesian Crisis

At the present time the Uni-
ted States is applying harsher
economic sanctions on Ian
Smith's Rhodesian government
than it is on the Communist
government in North Vietnam.
This was the report of Taylor

Scotties
Hear About
Viet Move

At the Student Government
chapel January 6 a discussion
of Affirmation: Vietnam was
presented by some of its lea-
ders to the student body. This
is now being supplemented by
weekly meetings of hall repre-
sentatives who will give an-
nouncements to the students.

The latest news from the or-
ganization is that the keynote
speaker for the assembly Febr-
uary 12 at Atlanta Stadium will
be Secretary of State Dean Rusk.

Added to that news is the
fact that Bob Hope is taping a
special show to be shown on
television here in Atlanta Febr-
uary 6. Also on the show with
Hope will be Gov. Carl Sanders
and Sen. Richard B. Russell,
chairman of the Senate's Armed
Services Committee.

Sarah Uzzeil has issued a call
for all students who have or
can get a car February 12 to
let their hall representative
know as soon as possible.

Jones, chairman of the Geor-
gia Young Americans for Free-
dom, when he spoke to the Con-
servative Club January 13.

His program entitled "The
Crisis in Rhodesia" stressed
that there was no evidence of
collective suppression in the
country based on race.

Instead, the only qualificaton
for voting is education which is
provided free to the level which
allows citizens the right to
vote.

Under the present constitu-
tion, which Ian Smith supports,
the entire population would gra-
dually be able to vote, and a
black majority of voters would
be achieved in at least 15 years.

However Mr. Jones stated
that the government in Great
Britain wants a total majority
vote immediately with no quali-
fications. The principal leaders
of this harassment are the La-
bor Party and the Johnson ad-
ministraton in the United Sta-
tes.

Mr. Jones indicated that the
vast majority of the voters, even
among the blacks, had votedfor
independence in Ian Smith's re-
ferendum. However, the sur-
vival of Smith's government is
in doubt, and it is unlikely that
it can stand without economic
assistance.

l'HE DIRECTION OF the up-coming play, "There's No Milk in
the Icebox" takes the attention of author Bonnie Jo Henderson,
right, and Miss Elvena Green of the Agnes Scott Speech and Dra-
ma Department.

Students Present
Henderson Play

"I was going through my short
stories looking for one to sub-
mit to the short story contest
when I ran across the play.
I said "why not?" and sent it
in." On this whim, Bonnie Jo
Henderson submitted "There's
Some Milk In the Ice Box" to
the "Mademoiselle" writing
competition and won first place
for one-act plays.

'There's Some Milk in the Ice
Box" will be presented in the
Dana theatre onThursday, Feb-
ruary 3. "We're intending the
play as a workshop," Bonnie
Jo explains. There will be a
discussion following the forty-
minute production.

"Oneof the reasons fordoing
the play is that it offers an
opportunity to realize what the
author intended," pointed out
Bonnie Jo, who has discussed
each of the characters with the
actors. "And it gives me a
chance to see what lines could
and couldn't be used on the
stage. I rewrite as we go."

Bonnie Jo discussed how the
play has changed, and is chang-
ing; for her it is not static.
Written originally for submiss-
ion to the Southern Literary
Festival, it has undergone the
author's revision seven times.
It has even been rewritten since
its publication in the September
issue of "Mademoiselle".

"If you asked me if I would
change anything right now,"
stated the author after a month
and a half of rehearsal, "I
would write a three-act play."

The play published in "Ma-
demoiselle" is one work and
the one to be presented on the
stage in February is another,

according to the author, for "the
students are working out their
own interpretation."

Understanding the actors' in-
terpretation of the characters
has been a learning experience
for the playwright. "I hadn't
done the intense study of cha-
racter relations that these ac-
tors are having to analyze and
work out for themselves," said
Bonnie Jo. "For example, the
character of Dolly was never
real to me til I heard Malie
read it for the first time."

Malie Bruton and Libby Pot-
ter are the actresses from Ag-
nes Scott. From Georgia Tech
come Sid Schell, Pete Remsen,
Ed Griff en and Oliver Jones.
Dr. Francis Benjamin from the
Emory University history de-
partment completes the cast.
The author herself cast the
play.

Miss Green of the drama de-
partment is directing the play,
and Blackfriars president Alice
Airth is assistant director and
stage manager.

Miss Rentz' play-production
class is handling the lighting,
and Blackfriars committees are
in charge of props and cos-
tumes. Bunny Foster manages
the sets and Margaret Peyton
is technical director.

Thursday, February 3, was
selected "so everyone can
come."

The first basketball game of
the season will be held Friday,
January 21. The freshmen will
play the juniors; the seniors
will play last year's champions,
the sophomores.

"MOCKINGS"
FROM
RAMON A

Dear Mom,

Everything is excitement
around here. Cassandra is con-
stantly dashing off from one
protest to another. Her current
passions are, of course, Af-
firmation: Vietnam and the Bond
case.

Actually I've been doing a
little myself. Our hall has taken
a vote and decided that the
fastest, easiest way to win the
war would be to send me over
to the Viet Cong. As for the
General Assembly situation, as
soon as I heard that they had
refused to seat Bond, I dash-
ed down with my placard de-
fending 007 Then I learned the
J was for Julian, not James, so
left Cassandra to do the de-
monstrating.

Today was disastrous. I went
to lunch right after my 11:10
class. It must have taken a little
longer than I realized to get
through the line. I thought it
only seemed like two hours. I
must have enjoyed the delicious
meal longer than usual, too, be-
cause when I looked up, it was
already 2. This being lab day,
I panicked and hitched a ride
to Campbell with Dr. Calder.
vVhen I arrived, no one was
there, so I guess we had a cut.
I enjoyed my nap.

I've gotten started on my term
paper for English, My topic is
not exactly on the list, so he
thinks we ought to talk about
it. I don't see what's wrong
with the history of motorcycles
beginning with the development
of the bicycle and continuing
throught the scooter, culmina-
ting in the fine specimen seen
on our highways today. I did
a lot of research Saturday; I
rode over 20 miles.

Last week I dropped by the
Hub party and ran into my old
friend from Rho Rho Rho, quite
literally, of course. We had
coffee together, all over both of
us. He had driven out another boy
who had a date, and said he was
just about to call me. Of course,
I didn't know my number was
listed in the current issue of
Time. Anyway, we had a good
time together and he asked me
out for Saturday night. I hope
I'll get to see 'Thunderball"
for the 12th time.

All my love to you and Butch,

Trip Behind Iron Curtain
Brings New Understanding

"It was the warmth of the
Russian people that impressed
me more than anything else
while I was there," said Gay
Johnson ('69). Gay made this
observation after a twenty-eight
day stay in Russia this summer.

This visit was included in a
private tour of seven countries
with the "East vVest Study
Tour".

Gay has much to say about her
trip that cannot be covered in
one article. But she speaks fre-
quently to groups on campus
and is eager to share her ex-
periences.

"I want people to think more,
feel more, not just think about
The Enemy'," she explains.

Perhaps this sensitivity would
be more probable if we all
could have shared Gay's exper-
iences. The purpose of the tour
was to get to know the people,
and the means employed was
primarily talking with them.

The group itself offered was
unique. The students ranged
from sixteen to twenty-two in
age. They were from all over
the United States, from Coral
Gables, to Houston, and Chi-
cago. It included two Germans.

"Discussion among the group
was always lively because of
the diversity," Gay said.

Since each person in the
group knew a language besides
his native tongue, they were
their own interpreters.

They traveled from France,
to Germany, Poland, Russia,
Rumania, Hungary, Austria,
then returned to France.

All over, both in Russia and
in the other countries, Gay
found the natives "pro Ameri-

She found them consistently
against America's policy in
Vietnam.

The group's experiences in
Russia were unique in that un-
like most tourists, they man-
aged to talk with the men on the
street.

Every tourist group is given a
guide, provided by the govern-
ment, who carefully selects
what the group should and should
not see.

through," Gay recalls. But
she couldn't keep up with all
twenty-seven of them at once,
so they all were able to talk a
great deal with the people.

"We wanted to talk to the
people, not see the typical
tourist sights. We talked from
the moment we arrived, from
the every-day man on the street
to the highest official we could
get to," said Gay.

In Moscow, for example, be-
sides talking for hours with na-
tives, they talked with police-
men, who are lower govern-
ment officials

They talked to the official
delegation of the Northern Lib-
eration Front, the Viet Cong
representatives in Russia. They

lodge in Dillard, Ga., where
good food, quiet surroundings
and abundant time provided the
necessary factors for stimu-
lating and meaningful discus-
sion.

The three discussions of the
seminar were based on the
question: what factors, non-
musical and musical, shaped the
music of this era i.e., what
events in political, philosophi-
cal, religious, social, econo-
mic, and artistic activities dur-
ing this time influenced the
Baroque composers as they de-
veloped characteristic styles
and forms?

In the first discussion each
member of the class reported
on a specific aspect in the
over-all situation of the seven-
teenth and early eighteenth cen-
turies.

The second discussion was
an attempt to analyze the speci-
fic events and conditions of the
time which influenced directly
or indirectly the music of J. S.
Bach.

After this probing study of
the context in which music de-
veloped, the group was ready in
its third discussion to analyze-
some specific works of Bach
including the cantata Wachet
A_uf, the Or chestral Suite in B
Minor , and the Brandenbu rg
Concert! numbers 2 and 5.

This extended seminar com-
posed of several consecutive
sessions proved to be an excit-
ing and worthwhile means for
going deeper than the textbooks
. in confronting more adequately
the questions underlying any
study of a specific development.

What were the factors which
influenced and shaped it, and
in what kind of conditional con-
text did it grow? The class,
as a result, returned with this
study as background much bet-
ter prepared to launch into a
study of the classical age in
music

be Saturday at Prichett's, from
8:30 to 12:30. In selecting a
place, "we were careful to get
the most for our money," ac-
cording to Terri, "since So-
cial Council and A. A. wanted
to provide the student body
with two quality weekends."

An innovation this year will
be free cokes and parking. The
entire weekend costs $4. Ac-
cording to Mary Helen Good-
loe, "one dollar per person
per dance is a really good
buy!"

Music will be provide d by the
Soul Searchers formerly
known as the Kingsmen.

a real gooel party atmosphere-."

Retrospection: RE Week

Betty Butler, Religious Emphasis Week chairman, is "pleased
with the response to Religious Emphasis Week." She feels that
many students share her attitude. There is some adverse cri-
ticism to Dr. Marney that he "talked down to women," that

one "wanted to pull his point out of his roundabout lectures,"
that he flaunted knowledge outside his field, knowledge not al-
ways accurate at that. There will always be such critical re-
sponse, especially, as Betty puts it, to "a definite personality."

But we agree with Betty that the good results of RE Week
are seen in the tremendous response created, to both Dr. Marney
and what he said. As a matter of fact, he was reportedly "over-
whelmed" by the response at week's end.

Many people were happy to find him not talking the usual re-
assuring line. "I think he worked up to something positive by the
end of the week," says Betty, "but it was in different language."
Such an attitude in message and in open willingness to talk, and
more importantly to him, to listen is refreshing in anyone,
especially in an RE speaker. Such a willing attitude is doubt-
less the reason for the success of the anything-goes evening
discussions, where students asked the questions.

Perhaps Dr. Marney's attitude was halfway defeated before
he reached the campus, however. There is evidence that the week
was somehow set aside as a special holy time. For instance,
yearbook pictures, requiring 30 minutes an evening, as well
as a fire drill, could not be scheduled. (Fires do not hestitate
to break out anytime, even Religious Emphasis Week). VesDers.
of course, were canceled, but, as Betty says, "Speaking just in
C.A. terms, there's only so much time in a day, and the discussions
were 'more important."

But the canceling of other activities worries us. There is not
question of a time conflict. If it was an effort to set the week
very much apart from others, it was only a half-hearted effort,
for tests and papers were still vividly with us. Dr. Marney came
very eager to talk to us and perhaps help us in our lives of this

world the lives of pictures and tests and fire drills; he wanted

to meet us where we stand, but we stood in a special place to
meet him.

Finally, we come to the choice of Dr. Marney, or any Reli-
gious Emphasis speaker. The decision is not a student one. And
it seems hardly fair, to speak bluntly, for C.A. to run a show
whose star it did not pick. We do not wish to be radical; we
are not in a position to know everyone who is well qualified. But
we must agree with Betty that "students should be allowed to
make suggestions that would be very seriously considered."
We hope things can work on these lines in future. As for the
choice of Dr. Carlyle Marney for Religious Emphasis Week
1966, we again agree with Betty: "It worked out very well."

It seems to me that something is revealed about each class
from the following cheers heard during the last hockey game.
Seniors (ccolly); Rip'em up, tear 'em up, go Madeline 1
Freshmen (eagerly): Ishum wishum squashum washum bo bo, etc.
Sophomores (deafeningly): We are the best, S-P-I-R-I-T.
Juniors (plaintively): I wish those sophomores would sit down in
front.

The greatest artist is he who makes those who appreciate his
work of art join actively in the process of creation. He presents
reality in such a way that the writing can be discovered by the
acute observer, or, more accurately, by the sensitive participant.

When we study Pope we can point out the parallels and opposites
and paradoxes he has declared. When we study Shakespeare we
can find them for ourselves in his artistic vision of life.

Notes From Underground

If you haven't been to Underground Atlanta,
make it a point to go; there's nothing like
a little adventure to pep up Winter Quarter.
Underground Atlanta stands on the site of
Old Atlanta. It didn't start out to be under-
ground at all, but over the years viaducts,
overpasses, and the like have completely
submerged whole blocks of the city, right
in the heart of Downtown near Five Points.

Most of Underground Atlanta is ware-
houses, but there is one place with an awn-
ing-covered entrance called "Big John's."
A dive, I suppose. (Dive, Underground, get
it?) The walls are dank and drippy, in the
Murky Gothic Novel tradition. There are in-
congruous fire hydrants, stop signs, and no
parking signs.

Don't go alone, and don't go at night, but
go. How to get there is sort of an unofficial
secret, I gather, so find it yourself.

Faculty Ten u re

Members of the Agnes Scott faculty are
either given or not given tenure after they're
taught here three years. It is during these
first three years that the administration,
the dean of the faculty, and his staff evalu-
ate the new teachers.

W'e as students can give these administra-
tors helpful information about new teachers,
because WE are the people who see them in
action, day in and day out in the classroom.
Too often we just gripe among ourselves
about bad teachers, they receive their tenure,
and we are stuck with them for years and
years.

vVe have a real responsibility to air our
professorial complaints AND plaudits be-
fore the administration and other responsible
ears. But it is most important that we be
mature in what we say. The administration
will welcome our criticism as long as it
is sound, constructive criticism. They don't
have time to listen to the complaints of
immature students who just don't know how
to get along with their professors.

Campus Politics

A week from today we're having an im-
portant student meeting. Rep Council's mo-
tion concerning the creation of the office of
student government vice president and its
motion concerning the creation of a pub-
lications board will be the major topics.
Get familiar with these issues before you
go. GO is the operative word here, of course.
So far this year attendance at these meetings
has been good. Thursday's issues are pro-
bably the most vital ones we've have all
year, so come and vote.

Practice Teaching

John Ciardi says "there are no dull teachers; there are only
dull people in classrooms impersonating teachers." In this state-
ment he underlines the most important fact about teaching:
The success or failure of a teacher depends on what happens when
she is in front of a class.

vVithout question, practice in the art of holding the attention of
a class and in being a real teacher is a great help to prospective
teachers. Agnes Scott students who plan to teach are fortunate
in having the opportunity to practice under a trained and exper-
ienced person in a local school during spring quarter of their
senior year.

But we raise this question: Is it academically valid for the
grades which practice teachers get to be considered exactly
as are grades other students get for papers and tests? Does
five hours of A in practice teaching equal five hours of A in
independent study? Should 18 hours of A in practice teaching
count towards Phi Beta Kappa? There is an essential difference-
between work IN class and work BEFORE a class that leads us
to say no, it is not valid.

What we do in class at Agnes Scott is pure academic work.
Even research projects and lab work, as they are handled at
Agnes Scott, constitute purely academic endeavor. On the other
hand practice teaching is APPLIED learning. Practice teachers
go into classrooms and apply what they have learned in seminars
and education courses.

We are not saying that practice teaching is easy. It is a delicate-
job, and one which requires careful and constant preparation.
The point we are making is that practice teaching and regular
classwork are different disciplines. They should not be evaluated
on the same scale, and success in one discipline should not be
rewarded with an honor indicative of success in clearly another
discipline altogether.

"MOCKINGS"
FROM
RAMON A

Dear Mom,

Let me tell you about my date
last weekend. My Rho Rho Rho
pal and I headed for Tom and
Irma, but, since it's a double
feature, Tom was half over.

My sophomore friends had
warned us not to miss the first
part, so we didn't go in.

Finally we decided the thing to
do was see Richard Burton, but
we spied the long line and knew
we'd never get out of the cold.
We ended up at "That Darn
Cat". It was all right until I
started sneezing. I had almost
forgotten about that cat allergy.

I had such a great time. Rob-
in and I make a dynamic duo;
he's wonderful.

I've asked him to the dance,
so please send me something to
wear. Dress covers a wide
range so I think I'd like my
pea-green May Day dress with
the puce sash.

Don't forget the hoop. And,
of course, you know to send my
purple and yellow leopard cock-
tail (hal) dress. You might
stick in my roaring twenties
number.

I'd like that as soon as pos-
sible because I'll have to dye
these shoes. I can't remember
exactly what shade of brown it
is mouse or murky.

We may have our picture tak-
en, but since the dance is at
- Would you believe? - Prit-
chett's Cafeteria we might have
the cash register in the back-
ground.

At least, as my friend Caro-
lyn Dahlem says, they're having
a unique stag line. Just pick
up your tray.... I hope it's not
too dark that night. I'm not
quite sure of the exact location
and we might get the wrong
warehouse.

I had my conference about
my term paper, and he's going to
let me do the history of motor-
cycles after all. He did sug-
gest that our library probably
won't have too much informa-
tion so I'd better go over to
Tech. (I wonder if my inten-
tion was a bit too obvious in
that choice of subject?)

I can't wait for the next rain-
ing day, Mom. This nice man
just gave me a free batbrella.

Give my love to Butch and
the whole gang. Love,

Ramona

Sophomores Start Planning
Winter Weekend For Parents

v THE PROFILE J \Nl' \RV 27, 1 96ft B PAGE 3

Class of 1968 has begun
plans for the weekend of Febr-
uary 10 when parents will be
the guests of sophomores on
campus for Sophomore Parents'
Weekend.

Activities include the tradi-
tional Dolphin Club water show,
which will be presented twice
Friday evening, and an exhi-
bition College Bowl match in
chapel Friday.

Also on Friday, the sophs
will face the seniors in basket-
ball at 4. From 3 to 5:30 sop-
homores and their parents can
meet each other and the fa-
culty at the open house in Win-
ship.

There will be a tour of the
Dana Fine Arts Building Fri-
day from 2 to 4.

Mr. Tumblin will speak at

chapel Saturday morning. At
12:30 the luncheon for sopho-
mores and their families will
begin in the dining hall.

An innovation this year will
be a faculty panel following the
meal. Dr. Alston, Dean Kline,
Mr. McNair, and Miss Scan-
drett will answer questions
from parents.

Dr. and Mrs. Alston will host
sophomores and parents at a
tea at their home Saturday from
3:30 to 5:30.

Committees planning the
weekend's activities have been
announced by Gue Pardue, pre-
sident of the class, and are as
follows: Jan Burroughs and Su-
san D. Phillips, Winship open
house; Susan Clarke and Betty
Whitaker, luncheon; Dale Steel,

Limited Affirmation
For A: V Movement

Dear Editor:

As the "Affirmation: Viet-
nam" movement sweeps cam-
pus, state, and nation, I feel it
necessary that we question and
clarify some of the appeals on
which the organization gains
support.

1. The appeal of being posi-
tive must be tempered by a rea-
lization that in many ways this
is an anti-anti organization,
existing to counteract the pub-
licity of the "pacifist-draft-
dodger element."

"Affirmation: Vietnam" de-
fends the rights of such people.
Furthermore, it is probably
historically true that every as-
sertion ever made has been
partly a negative reaction to
something else.

But we must make certain how
much is negation. We must al-
so be sure that we are affirm-
ing something more than a good
image for college students.

2. The appeal of affirma-
tion amidst the doubt, ques-
tioning, and uncertainty ex-
pressed by many, including
many experts, is strong.

Is it valid, though, to get
swept up and affirm just for
the sake of affirming? We must
be careful what we are affirm-
ing.

3. Is it really possible that
the February rally will be heard
as affirming the basic commit-
ment but not the day-to-day act-
ions of our government?

Of course one can make ex-
ceptions in endorsing a general
policy. But there is a limit
beyond which we cannot support
a "why" without supporting
the "what."

An affirmation of our com-
mitment will affirm its basis
and nature. It will endorse the
refusal to consider any of the
Viet Cong as legitimate South

Vietnamese on which our defi-
nition of freedom for that coun-
try has continued to be based.

It will affirm to the world,
.whatever we intend, a military
commitment.

4. I deplore such things as
the harassment of soldiers'
wives and the attacks on the in-
dividual men because of their
courageous actions in service
of their government.

The soldiers deserve our en-
couragement and admiration.
But does this oblige us to sup-
port the government in sending
them?

5. The appeal to rally to the
support of the government
points up one of my major crit-
icisms. The government has
not committed itself at the de-
mand of the people of this coun-
try.

Time and again, and this
cannot always be justified as
necessary strategy, the govern-
ment has acted secretly, given
false information as to what
it was doing, then informed the
nation (often because it has
been forced to by news cover-
age), then asked for support
of what it has done.

This is a reversal of democ-
racy as I understand it.

6. Perhaps the major appeal
of the movement at Agnes Scott
is only implied. Everyone
seems to endorse "Affirma-
tion: Vietnam," from the state
bigwigs to entertainers to stu-
dent body presidents to all the
girls on the hall.

But the appeal of mass sup-
port, used by everyone from
Bill Graham to Madison Avenue,
does not necessarily validate
anything. It appeals to the
emotions more than to reason.
Conformity certainly should not
be the only reason you can
give for support of "Affirma-
tion: Vietnam."

Including hall representa-
tives and students working in
the offices at Emory, "Affir-
mation: Vietnam" has invol-
ved over 200 Agnes Scott stu-
dents.

According to Sarah Uzzell,
"Affirmation ; Vietnam" has
jolted this campus more than
anything in the past four years."

The chairmen of the various
committees have been announ-
ced. Kathy Blee and Betsy
Jones head the hall represen-
tatives and set up opinion polls.

C. C. Ford and Vicki Justice
are in charge of the Watt line
telephoning at Emory, used to
contact mayors and other offi-

cials in cities in Georgia to
update them on the "Affirma-
tion: Vietnam" calendar.

THE PROFILE

Intervie w

Dr. Marney Gets As Well As Gives

Sophs Down Seniors.
Cooper, Davidson Shine

Q: Why do you think it worthwhile to come
to a campus for a Religious Emphasis Week?

A: I come to get a pulse, a point of view.
You are not isolated here. Your homes and
your backgrounds are with you very much.
I get a feedback of political, social and re-
ligious ideas from all over the country.

It would be not only arrogant but false
for me to assume that I could do you some
good. We will have to discover whether my
coming means anything or not. I may or 1
may not be heard. 1 have come to find out
if we can talk.

I must be true to what has happened in
my life. We are all human beings with myths,
masks, and inner pressures. I want to know
what there is to find if I am heard. We must
find out what can be done where we are
today. If that is the same as what the Bible
says, then it will be Christian.

I have to come, and not lie, and let it
happen or not. It's out of my hands. The

issue is always in doubt, but 1 am obligated
to come. I am not only willing but eager
to hear your views. But our conversation
must open with a question from you.

I am willing not to be heard by many
for the fun of being heard by one, or 10
or 20. But there is always the prospect of
failure.

Q: What do you, as a representative of
the church, have to say to us as represen-
tatives of the campus?

A; I'm anything but a representative of
the church. I wasn't asked as a represen-
tative of the church. I'm obviously not a very
good Baptist or I wouldn't have been asked.
I wouldn't have been asked if I were a very
strict southern Presbyterian. The church
is a medium through which here and there
Christ may be represented. But there's no
guarantee. But anywhere I do meet him, it
is church.

A third quarter rally proved
unsuccessful Friday as the so-
phomores defeated the seniors,
41-34. The game revealed new
talent in the form of Elizabeth
Cooper, a transfer from Baylor
and soph high scorer with 14
points.

Alice Davidson was overall
high scorer with 16 points. Jan
Gaskell and Lucy R ose record-
ed 12 and 11 points respective-

iy.

The freshmen team won over
the juniors. The freshmen led
23-15 when the game was for-
feited because of insufficient
number of players due to in-

For Festival Entries

Attention all writers: Contri-
butions for the Southern Liter-
ary Festival are now being ac-
cepted.

Entries may be one act plays,
a single poem or a series of
related poems, short stories,
informal essays and formal or
critical essays.

LDH Adds
Sandwiches

Our lower dining hall is no
longer a mere lower dining
hall. It's a soda fountain, a
Jimmie's and a P. byC. (min-
us the P.).

Thanks to Mrs. Ethel Jen-
kins, who worked at Emory for
12 years before coming here,
the L. D. H. will be enhanced
by a new menu board.

Among these recent addi-
tions are sandwiches: bacon-
lettuce - and - tomato, ham,
ham-club, pimento cheese,
and peanut-butter-and-jelly.

There are also new drinks,
ice creams and sherbets. A
hot dog machine may be in-
stalled.

But that's not all-there is a
house specialty: the Scott
Derby. Yes, it is a hat, but
with different ingredients:
pound cake, ice cream, choco-
late sauce, whipped cream,
and a cherry.

Bonhoeffer, Cox
Spark Classes

The office of Alumnae Af-
fairs announces the 1966 Con-
tinuing Edcation Program for
alumnae and their husbands and
friends.

Miss Mary Boney and Mrs.
Margaret Pepperdene will lead
courses in the current challen-
ges to faith and readings in the
contemporary novel, respec-
tively.

The education program will
commence February 1 and con-
tinue for five consecutive Tues-
day nights from 7:30 to 9:30
p.m.

The religion studies will in-
clude selected Biblical refer-
ences and works of Bonhoef-
fer, Cox, Robinson, and Thie-
licke.

A study of American, British,
French, and Italian novelists
including Flannery O'Connor,
Muriel Spark, Alberto Moravia
and Albert Camus will compose
the novel course.

Creative entries will be judg-
ed by a faculty-student commit-
tee and critical entries by a
faculty committee. The papers
chosen by the committees will
be sent as Agnes Scott's entries
for the festival writing compe-
tition.

Last year the Southern Lit-
erary Festival was held on the
*'01e Miss" campus in Oxford,
Mississippi. Special guests
were Eudora Welty, Ruth Ford,
Malcolm Cowley and Robert
Penn Warren.

This year the festival will be
held April 22-24 at the Univer-
sity of Alabama.

The deadline for entries is
February 7. All work should be
typed and double spaced. En-
tries should be turned into Miss
Trotter's office, 317 Buttrick.

Preston Awards

The deadline for entries in
the competition for the Janef
Newman Preston Poetry Awards
is January 31. This is thefirst
year that these awards have
been offered.

The first place award is $25,
second $15, and third $10.

Durin g the past weeks a poe-
try workshop has been conduct-
ed on campus. However, stu-
dents who have not attended the
workshop are eligible to enter
the competition.

Poems should be typed and
unsigned. Accompanying the
poem should be a sealed enve-
lope containing the author's
name. The title of the poem

Gay Discusses Russia

also talked to the New York
Times foreign correspondent
in Moscow.

One of the most interesting
situations the group experien-
ced was reading in the Russian
papers about the racial riots
in Watts, California.

"We thought the whole United
States had fallen into the Pa-
cific," Gay said, because the
story was so exploited.

They printed the worst pic-
tures, and the story, while
"technically true, was a skil-
ful bit of propaganda," she
stated. "This is what they do
with the information we feed
them."

This episode, Gay suggests,
is a good example of the view
the Russians have of Ameri-
cans. Both the Vietnam situa-
tion and the racial troubles are
featured in an exploitative man-
ner by the Russian press.

Viel n a in Opin ion

She noticed the worst pic-
tures on the newspapers, such
as those of American protest
"peace" marchers.

There is a general impres-
sion created by the press in

from page 1

Russia, according to Gay's ob-
servations, that the Americans
are generally against the gov-
ernment's actions in Vietnam
and that the public has very lit-
tle voice in the decisions.

Gay points out several ob-
servations which she wished to
impress upon Americans with
whom she comes in contact.

"I keep remembering the title
of a Pete See ger album, "Stran-
gers and Brothers,' because
that's what we all are, really.
I was constantly impressed by
the warmth of the Russians....
In the American minds it is
still a Stalinistic Russia, with
terror and blood in the streets.
Stalin no longer lives."

Henderson Prize Play
World Premiere Tonight

Tonight at 7 the campus com-
munity and public will have a
chance to see Bonnie Jo Hen-
derson's prize - winning play
"There's Some Milk In The Ice-
box". The production will be in
Dana Fine Arts Building. No ad-
mission will be charged. Fol-
lowing the one-act play will be
an on-stage discussion led by
Mrs. June Youngblut.

Sid Schell of Georgia Tech
plays the part of a war vete-
ran, the leading role. Malie
Bruton of Agnes Scott plays
Dollie Roemer, his second wife.
Hubert the Welfare child will be
played by Oliver Jones of Ga.
Tech.

Dr. Francis Benjamin, of
Emory University history de-
partment, plays Elijah Sasson,
an old ice man. The role of candy
striper Shirley Brannon will be
portrayed by ASC freshman
Libby Potter.

The remainder of the cast
draws from the Sigma Phi Ep-
silon fraternity at Georgia Tech
of which Oliver Jones and Sid
Schell are also members. Ed
Griffin plays the part of a de-
German Club

Goethe's "Der Urfaust" will
be presented in Dana Fine Arts
Wednesday, February 16 at 8:15
p.m. The production is in Ger-
man, but an English scene-by-
scene synopsis will be provided
in the program.

Blair-Louise Major ('68) will
play the part of Gretchen. Gail
Livingston and Susan Bergeron
are also in the cast. Mrs.
Shiver of the German Depart-
ment is directing the play which
is an early, incomplete version
of "Faust."

There will be no admission
charge.

livery boy and Pete Rem sen
portrays Jack Roemer.

The discussion after the pro-
duction will allow questions
from the audience to both the
actors and the playwright. Mrs.
Youngblut, director of Quaker
House in Atlanta, is working on
her Ph.D. in the Institute of
Liberal Arts at Emory.

The set, made by Blackfriars
try-outs and members from
an original design by Bunny
Foster, is like the framework
of a house. The walls are not
filled in, so that the audience
may be aware of people enter-
ing and exiting, and "aware of
the house itself as a symbol,"
said Bonnie lo.

Rehearoals have not been with-
out amusing moments, of which
Beastie contributed his share.
His position was threatened by
two Siamese cats offered by
Mona Umphlet, but "baby sit-
ting" with nervous cats became
a bit taxing, and when the play-
wright herself decided that a cat
was not absolutely necessary,
"everyone was overjoyed," she
admits.

Ironically, the milk in the
ice box itself presented pro-
blems, when it spoiled one day.
It became a test of acting abi-
lity and fortitude to say lines
in front of the ice box with a
straight face.

If the roles are realistically
portrayed, it is with good rea-
son. The role of Walter the
war veteran calls for acute
stomach pains which actor Sid
Schell had never experienced.
But "we all fussed at him,
and now he has acute stomach
pains," said Bonnie Jo.

Oliver Jones who plays the
idiot has learned to cross his
eyes and has even forsaken
a well-parted hairdo for the
sake of realism.

Malie Bruton, a senior who
is majoring in English, has
compromised with the play-
wright about the bad grammar
which her role calls for but

which she detests using. Malie
has been frowned upon by her
hall friends for the tight skirt
and sleazy sweater she has

hearsals.

Lighting for the production
is being handled by Miss Ren-
tz' play production class. Les
Garber, a member of the class,
and student at Emory, is in
charge of the lights, and will
be assisted by Angela Saad
and Sally Barr.

Margaret Peyton is respon-
sible for make up, Betty But-
ler for programs, and Cappy
Page for publicity. DianneGray
is in charge of props.

Mary Helen Goodloe is tech-
nical director (a correction of
the error in last week's Pro-
file). Blackfriars members are
helping with make up and props,
and Arts Council members are
ushering. Miss Green is the
director.

Fuller Plays Debussy,
Shumann, Beethoven

Mr. Jay C. Fuller, instructor
of piano in the Agnes Scott Mu-
sic department, will give a re-
cital Friday, February 4, at
8:15 p.m. in Gaines Chapel.

The program will be varied
covering a wide range of music
history. Beginning with the
Baroque period, Mr. Fuller will
play "Jesu, Joy of Man's De-
siring." Beethoven and the
classical period will follow di-
rectly with "Sonata, Op. 53,"
commonly called the "Wald-
stein" sonata because it was
dedicated to Count Waldstein.

The Romantic period is
brought in next by Shumann's
"Carnival". The Impression-
ists, also of the Romantic per-
iod, will be represented by De-
bussy's "Reflets dans L'Eau",

and
by

Faure's "Impromptu",
"Alborado del gracioso
Ravel.

Mr. Fuller is a graduate of
the Peabody Conservatory and
the Johns Hopkins University,
both in Baltimore.

He has been praised by mem-
bers of Scott's music and Eng-
lish departments. Mr. McNair,
who has studied with Mr. Full-
er, calls him "a brilliant
pianist". Mr. Martin praises
him highly, "I think he is an
exceptionally fine musician."

Three of Mr. Martin's child-
ren are studying under Mr.
Fuller. As a concert pianist,
Mr. Martin says, "He is one
of the finest performers in At-
lanta."

Mr. Fuller's concert man-
ager has arranged a number of
programs this year, of which he
does not yet know all the details.

Dance Weekend

Social Council and Athletic Association deserve both congratu-
lations and thanks for the Winter Dance Weekend. Through their
efforts, Agnes Scott has continued her tradition of successful
dances.

The idea of two dances was good. The contrast between the Hub
party and the semi-formal affair was fun, and both dances were
great.

We like the idea of a dance WEEKEND. Perhaps in the spring
we can add another feature open house.

For the present, much credit goes to those who planned last
weekend. The Saturday night dance was an outstanding one in a
succession of good winter dances. The choice of the Soul Seachers
and of Pritchett's proved appropriate and excellent.

Again, congratulations and thanks.

Independent Study

Nobody reads independent study projects. Although each one
is bound and placed in the library, few students ever know they
are there, much less stop to read them. However, most of these
works are on subjects of interest to us. Some of them, such as
"Look, Stranger," have extremely interesting titles. And in the
past independent study projects have ranged from "The Lint Dod-
gers" to 'The Other Side of Roman Satin," covering all subjects
from science to English.

There are worlds of knowledge in these papers. Plus this, they
illustrate new fields of interest which Agnes Scott students have
explored-mainly in our library. It is a wonderful example of the
knowledge, that people with the same resources we have, have
found, and it points out the wealth of material that is in our li-
brary. We should not let this vast amount of knowledge simply sit
on the shelf. It is available to all of us, and there is no excuse not
to use it.

Dining Hall Hope

We are sure that everyone who heard Mr. Lapheimer of Cam-
pus Chefs, Inc. in chapel last Thursday appreciates his open

helpful attitude. He is faced with two terrific problems simply

preparing food for over 700 people and trying to please as many
as possible.

And he certainly is trying to please everyone he can. He heeds
suggestions. If things are not as you like, it's probably because
you've told only your friends. TellCampusChefs instead and they'll
see what they can do.

Such eagerness to please as well as serve is welcome and en-
couraging. We look forward to more successful operation of and
better satisfaction with the dining hall.

UCLA Grad Reminisces:
College Wasn't Like This

(ACP) (The following was written by
UCLA alumnus Jack Smith for the Pftily
Bruin 's Cub Edition.)

As an old college dropout of '40 I have an
unfulfilled taste for the academic life. Books
aren't enough. I yearn to go back to the cam-
pus. 'The world's oldest schoolboy," my
wife calls me.

But I don't know if I could adjust to the
present generation. Maybe it's too yeasty for
me.

Business took me out to Westwood on a re-
cent Saturday morning. It was a limpid day,
nippy and electric. A rain had washed down
the trees and lawns and brick facades. I felt
like a sophomore in Bzantium.

A hold sign caught my eye; big red letters
on a white placard: "LEGALIZE ABOR-
TION I" it admonished.

"Good God 1" I thought. "How things have
changed."

In my day a well-bred college man would
never have thought the word abortion, much
less use it in society. It might be coun-
tenanced in a metaphoric sense, to suggest
some grotesque fiasco. But never, never as
a clinical procedure. I think they even em-
ployed a euphemism for it in medical school.

Since that eye-opening morn, I have been
trying to keep abreast of the new tides on
campus. Vicariously, as a subscriber to the
Bruin and, rather less important, the father
of a couple of UCLA sophomores, I am now
involved. I am cast about in the heavy con-
troversies that surge back and forth over the
green hills and plains of Westwood.

I devour Intro and Spectra. One day I'm
a war hawk for victory at any cost in Viet
Nam; and the next a dove, ready to put my
dog-eared draft card to the torch. Yet in

KW, I just loani fsfcu^rtj.

my day, the gravest calamity of modern
history was gathering over the world, about to
open like a thundercloud, loosing death and
misery on millions, but few of us seemed to
notice.

I fancy myself in the editor's chair, and I
see nothing imprudent in assigning a half
dozen nubile coed reporters to the medical
department to test the availability of The Pill.

When I was editor of the old college paper
I could have never dared to send a gaggle
of coeds on such a brazen mission. It would
probably have meant expulsion, at least, and
probably tar and feathers. In the eyes of
1940 propriety, I might have sent them naked
up the stone steps of an Aztec sacrificial
pyramid.

In my day the chastity of the unespoused
college girl was a sacred presumption, if not
a shining fact. Contraception was no more
openly discussed as a possible course of ac-
tion than treason. The word "pill" meant
aspirin or a rat fink.

I'm afraid our drama class would have
drowned in the new wave of undergraduate
cinema. We had neither the money nor the
creative license to turn out an evening of
movies ranging in theme from a nude's night-
mare to the loneliness of the long distance
homosexual and collectively called "Op, Pop
and Kicky Flicks."

Our most daring presentation was, "Bury
the Dead", Irwin Shaw's futile one-act pro-
test (yes, we knew the word) against the
folly and horror of war. I played a young
soldier, killed in France, who refused to lie
down and be buried.

We never heard the likes of Dick Gregory,
Joan Baez, Wayne Morse, or Martin King.
Bertrand Russell would have been drummed
out of our town as he was from the enlighten-
ed city of New York. Our speakers were
rarely controversial. Art Linkletter would
have been all right, and Calvin Coolidge, but
Linkletter was unheard of yet, and Coolidge
was safely dead.

But we weren't zeroes. We weren't exactly
like nowhere. We did have our values. We
had ideals and courage. We are the genera-
tion that won the war. And we did produce the
present generation, didn't we? After all, we
didn't have the pill.

But these are wider, higher times; exhila-
rating times. The mood of my era was lan-
guor. Our sex goddess was Dorothy Lamour.
We read A. E. Houseman and Thomas Wolfe
(not Tom Wolfe) and had nostalgia for a
youth we hadn't even lost yet.

Maybe we sensed not only that we were
living our own youths out, but were living,
for the last time, a kind of youth that was
never to be again. I knew quite where I
stood, though, on the issues of the day. I
was for Wendell Wilkie, Benny Goodman,
Jeanette McDonald, the U. S. Marine Corps
and love.

Where would I stand as an undergraduate
today? I'm not so sure. At the moment, I
don't see any graceful or prudent or sane way
out of Viet Nam, but I have a feeling that be-
ing there is all wrong. I'm for birth control
if it isn't retroactive; I wouldn't want to be
undone.

And I have a couple of suggestions of my
own. Plant some ivy out there. Everything
looks so raw. Besides, it will impress your
professors, especially those who have never
been east of the Pecos.

Don't sell Wendell Wilkie short. Don't
kick so often on third down. Don't try to
use the zone-court press against Duke.

Beat Michigan State and Legalize Love.

THE FRO FILE FEBRUARY 3, 1966 PAGE 3

Archbishop Hallinan

Former ASC Prof Sims
Tours Programs Abroad

In her first year as dean at
Sweet Briar, Mrs. Catherine
Sims, formerly professor of
history and political science at
Agnes Scott, made a tour of
Junior Year Abroad programs,
including Sweet Briar's own
program in France.

Correction

In last week's paper the edi-
torial on practice teaching im-
plied that grades in practice
teaching can be counted toward
Phi Beta Kappa.

Practice teaching grades are
not counted towards this award.

The PROFILE is happy to set
the record straight.

The purpose of the trip was
to visit as many programs in
different countries as possible
and to compare them with the
Sweet Briar program.

After visiting the Sweet Briar
students and the families they
are staying with in Paris, Mrs.
Sims traveled to Munich,
Athens, Florence, Madrid, and
Rome. Examining these pro-
grams, she found many simi-
larities among them, though
some programs were stronger
than others.

She also decided that study
abroad for juniors is best for
students specializing in lan-
guages, literature, history, and
history of art, and of least
benefit to those interested in the
natural science and mathe-
matics.

Scott Theft Increases
With Other Schools 9

The recent outbreak of steal-
ing at Agnes Scott is not a local
problem. All over the country
colleges are troubled by such
crimes from petty theft to ma-
jor break-ins. And no one is
certain to what extent students
are responsible.

One major problem area is
shoplifting, especially in school
stores. The FBI has reported
shoplifting as the nation's fast-
est-growing crime, having in-
creased 93 per cent in the past
five years.

Colleges report that students
are often involved. A mer-
cnant near Maryland's College

More Students
Plan Weddings

Mary Pensworth and Fred
Reagor are planning to be mar-
ried this summer.

Doris Morgan is engaged to
Bobby Maye, a physics major at
Georgia Tech.

Linda Lou Colvard is enga-
ged to Bob Dorian, a Washing-
ton, D.C. employee of NASA.
They are planning a late sum-
mer wedding.

Park campus says students are
usually caught taking items they
don't need. They consider it a
"challenge to see if they can
get away with it," he said.

The Yale Co-op reported last
fall that student arrests for
shoplifting were averaging one a
day. Store detectives said stu-
dents from every area of the
school had been involved.

Campus police refer all cas-
es directly to the New Haven
police. Students are booked and
ordered to appear in city courts.

C. L. Willoughby, the Co-op's
general manager, said that mo-
tives ranged from "prankster-
ism" to little-understood com-
pulsions, which are seldom fi-
nancial.

At the University of North
Carolina, Wally Kuralt, owner
of the Intimate Bookstore, es-
timates that he loses $7000 a
year through shoplifting.

The thieves are mostly UNC
students, Kuralt says. "Usually
they work in twos or threes. One
man blocks off the view while
another stuffs a book under his
coat." They steal anything from
15-cent paperbacks to $20 art
manuals, he said.

Unconcerned Society
Doomed Says Ward

Archbishop
Speaks In

Convocation

Archbishop Hallinan of the
.Catholic Archdiocese of Atlanta
will speak at Convocation Fe-
bruary 9. The topic of the Arch-
bishop's speech is "Vatican
Council - In Perspective."

Since 1962, Bishop Hillinan
has been Archbishop of Atlanta.
He was Bishop of Charleston
from 1958 - 1962.

The Archbishop received his
Ph.D. degree from Western Re-
serve and his B.A. degree from
Notre Eane.

Archbishop Hallinan was a
delegate to the second Vatican
Council. He is also a member
of the committee formed by the
Vatican Council to revise the
liturgy of the Catholic Church.

an audience at Agnes Scott
Jan. 26.

Noting that the 18 per cent
of the world's population com-
prising the white industrial so-
ciety of Europe and North
America share more than 70
per cent of the world's annual
income, she said the disparity
could result in the class con-
flict Karl Marx predicted. She
urged economic assistance and
the reduction of tariffs to aid
underdeveloped nations raise
their standards of living and to
help in the "creation of a com-
mon human society."

Miss Ward compared today's
international society with a
spaceship with "a very vul-
nerable, small crew that has
to get along. . .If there's trouble
in the galley, 20 hands on the
wheel, and someone letting the
fuel out of the back, you haven't
got a very good spaceship."
She said the "crew" of this
planet needs to get along too.

There is inherent instability
in a society when large and po-
werful states dwarf smaller

ones, Miss Ward commented.
She urged large nations, such
as the United States, to en-
courage the establishment po-
werful blocks of smaller states,
such as those of Latin Ameri-
ca and Africa.

The United Nations should
be used as an international
police force to protect weak
areas unable to protect them-
selves from the great powers
and to hold off conflict between
the large powers.

She noted with optimism that
there is now "a possibility of
dialogue within the international
community." "We're not talk-
ing about different principles
anymore," she said. "Both (the
Russians and the West) believe
in the betterment of mankind
and in the progress of history."

The burden of responsibility
for the condition of the men and
women in the poorer, under-
d e v e 1 oped countries lies
squarely on the shoulders of the
giants of world power, Miss
Ward said. "We have the
wealth. . .We have no alibi,"
she said.

Social Council
Presents Ford,
Remick Film

"Experiment in Terror" is
the fast-paced suspense movie
Social Council will present
Saturday, Rbruary 5.

Glenn Ford and Lee Remick
star in this classic suspense
film. The story takes place in
San Francisco where Lee Rem-
ick, a young bank teller, is in-
timidated into embezzling
$100,000.

The New York Herald Tribune
says this film is "the most ex-
citing thing of its kind to come
along in many a moon. Every
inch of this exceptional sus-
pense picture vibrates with ten-
sion and moves the story on
with a panting exuberance."

"Experiment in Terror" was
directed by Blake Edwards,
whose previous works include
"Breakfast at Tiffany's" and
"The Pink Panther."

Henry Mancini composed the
music for this film.

It will be shown February 5
in 207 Campbell Hall. Admis-
sion will be 35 cents.

tution against on-campus drink-
ing.

The rule was repealed by only
one vote more than the neces-
sary two-thirds majority.

According to Student Body
President Bill Council, 'The
repeal of the drinking rule is not
the result of a general desire
of the students to consume al-
coholic beverages on campus.
It is a result of student feeling
that the rule is unrealistic and
serves no definite end."

He further indicated that the
faculty of the college was
strongly committed to a dry
campus and that was a possibil-
ity of dorm and room searches
authorized by the faculty.

"The action taken by the stu-

dents," Council said, "re-
quires that they show a definite
responsibility and maturity. If
they do act with responsibility,
they will be able to maintain a
certain amount of jurisdiction."

Other rules up for repeal
failed to get the necessary ma-
jority. A rule against gamb-
ling failed by only a few votes.

"MOCKINGS"
FROM
RAMON A

Dear Mom,

My basketball career came
to an abrupt end with last Fri-
day's game. 1 was trying to exe-
cute my new play, but every-
time I tried to jump on Eliza-
beth Cooper's shoulders, she
dodged. After I fouled out I
was informed that she's a sop-
homore. The team thought they
would have a better season
without me, so I've switched
to badminton. I signed up for
the singles tournament, most-
ly because no one wanted to play
doubles with me. I've been prac-
ticing all afternoon and meet
my first opponent tomorrow.

I know you will all be as
disappointed as I was to learn
that I wasn't chosen SILHOUET-
TE beauty. The shock was soon
forgotten, however, in the fun
of the dance. I had a really
neat time. As a matter of fact,
the entire weekend was fantas-
tic.

Not wanting to waste my two-
dance ticket, I invited Alexander
Pope for Friday night. You know
it had to be a great dance for
me to have a good time with
him. The band was wild-John,
Paul, George, and Ringo. Or
was that Fido?

Seriously, I had a terrific
time. I'm still sore from dan-
cing. But Friday was only the
beginning. It's only fair to tell
you (especially since you'll get
the bill next week) that I bought
a new dress. It's a lovely light
green; it looked very nice with
my blue boots.

Robin got me a sweet little
corsage. Bib lettuce, I believe
it was. At least it went well with
my dress. Everything went
beautifully at the dance. It was
truly a perfect evening. How-
ever, I can sympathize with that
Greek who advised not to call a
man happy until his life is
completely over.

We were going downtown, and
we were so excited about round-
ing out our evening at the Top
of the Mart. The weather was
miserable. The parking lot back
of the Mart has to be the coldest
spot in Atlanta. The wind was
whipping about in eight different
directions. We finally made it to
the lobby and were just begin-
ning to warm up when the night-
watchman gave us the news.
They closed early because no
one was there.

We struggled back through the
blizzard to the car and Robin,
wonder that he is, turned the
key to unlock the door. Snap I
Yes, Mom, the key broke off
in the frozen lock. Well, Robin
mastered the situation beauti-
fully. He got a cab in record
time and I could hardly wait to
warm up. There was a small
problem though. Would you be-
lieve no heat in the taxi?

At least I had a good time
comparing experiences with the
girls in the dorm afterward.
And that night will remain one
of the year's outstanding me-
mories.

Cassandra had an unusual
weekend, too. Her date had to
come from New York. I haven't
yet gotten a complete list of
all the means of transportation
he employed, but I have an idea
that at least half of the way
he came by dog sled. Yes, on
1-85.

He was looking forward to a
weekend in the sunny South, but
by the time he left Sunday he
was anticipating his return to
the sunny North. I don't blame
him. It was up to 15 degrees
when he left Friday night.

Love.

Many Teaching Posts
Available Overseas

THE MAGIC PUPPETRY of Peter Arnott thrilled Scott students
this last week as he presented "Dr. Faustus"; here he examines
two of the puppets used in the play.

Harvard Appoints
First Woman Editor

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (CPS)
A medium-sized blonde coed
from Radcliffe has been elected
the first female editor of the
Harvard Crimson , and news
stories around the nation hailed
it a "major victory for femi-
nism."

The post goes to 19-year-old
Linda McVeigh, an honors
major in American History and
literature. She will become
managing editor in February,
and thus is second only to the
Crimson president in the news-
paper's leadership.

She will be responsible for
a news staff of about 30, about
a third of them women. The job
is, according to Crimson staf-
fers, the hardest, most mascu-
line post on the paper.

Andrew Beyer, the Qri;nsoji
sports editor, was asked by
reporters if he had found it dif-
ficult to vote for a woman.
"Not Linda," was his reply;
"she's tough."

Harrison Young, a drama
critic, said, 'There's more to
her than just being tough. She's
brave 0 You wouldn't mind being
in a resistance movement with
her."

The only problem Linda sees
involves her social life. Her
dates, she said, are generally
with Q^jiis.qji men. "After
Saturday night, I have to be boss
on Monday morning," she said.
"That might be sort of touchy."

Criticism has erupted from
the Yale Daily. &ffii which
loses all composure every time
a female wends her way into a
Yale dining hall.

1 'Her appointment is just ano-
ther part of the feminine con-
spiracy to end the male sex,"
John Rothchild, the new manag-
ing editor of the New s, declar-
ed. Rothchild has challenged
Linda to a game of jacks, rea-
soning that "this would be her
only weak point. If I challenged
her in wrestling or drinking,
she would probably beat me."

Miss McVeigh has agreed to

she would compete with Roth-

"You see," Rothchild com-
mented, "she's already trying
to usurp my role again."

Agnes Scott students can get
teaching jobs not only here in
Georgia and in the United Sta-
tes, but also in interesting and
unusual schools all over the
world.

Mrs. Stack has information
in her office concerning teach-
ing and administrative opportu-
nities in schools all over the
world. One of the most exci-
ting ones to her is the Inter-
national Schools Service.

It is an independent, non-
profit agency providing profes-
sional educational services to
approximately 200 schools in
Asia, Africa, Europe, and La-
tin America. Most of these
schools are sponsored by pa-
rent groups and international
communities. Others are spon-
sored by international industry
and by church organizations.

International Schools Service
has facilities for about 26,000
U.S. children and 23,000 stu-
dents of other nationalities. The
parents of the students from the
U.S. serve international pro-
grams of diplomacy, technical
aid or industry.

Scott Girls Evaluate
For Chairman Boney

Do college students have any
voice in the affairs of the
church?

Dr. Mary L. Boney would
say YESI At her request ten
Agnes Scott students have been
reading and evaluating the
Presbyterian .&ury-.e.y.

Dr. Boney was elected last
June as chairman of the Board
of Directors for the Survey,
the official publication of the
Presbyterian Church in the
United States. She thus has the
distinction of being the first
woman to serve as head of one
of the Church's major boards.

The ten Scotties selected are
Susan Aikman, Betsy Anderson,
Mary Brown, Margaret Cal-
houn, Jan Gaskell, Jane Mc-
Curdy, Adelia McNair, Portia
Morrison, Wendy Williams and
Grace Winn. These girls ex-
amined the magazine from se-
veral aspects, including ap-
proach, content, and layout.

They presented their com-
ments to the Board and Staff
of the Sury.e.y at its semi-
annual meeting which was held
on campus last Thursday and
Friday. Grace Winn said, "One
big suggestion was for more ar-
ticles on contemporary theo-
logv."

Dr. Boney stated that she was
"quite proud of the job they
did, for they were informed and
articulate. The Board and the
Staff were deeply impressed
with the thoughtful work the
students had put into their eva-
luations."

The Scott girls did their cri-
tiques with a view toward ap-
pealing to all age groups, not
only college students. As Dr.
Boney explained, the Survey,
"tries to promote and encour-
age the Christian life by speak-
ing to people where they are."

Mary Brown was especially
delighted that "effortless dia-
logue was achieved between the
students and the adult leaders
of the church. It made us aware
of the Church's attempt to con-

front contemporary concerns...
and to emphasize the impact
of Christianity in the world."

Dr. Boney revealed this ex-
citing coming attraction: "With
the help of Carrington Wilson,
a photograph of an Agnes Scott
student at work in the Lena
studios will appear on the cover
of the April issue of the Sur-
ve_y."

by Susan Aikman

Beginning today and lasting
until Sunday there will be many
smiling sophomores at Agnes
Scott. For tonight at 7 o'clock
marks the official opening of the
ninth annual Sophomore- Pa-
rents' Weekend.

The original suggestion for
Sophomore Parents' Weekend
came from Dr. McNair in 1957.
He and I>. Alston took the idea
to the faculty who approved the
appointing of a committee to
investigate the prospects of
having such a weekend. The
chairman of this comm ittee was
Miss Mildred Mell, who became
chairman of the weekend after
it was officially approved.

The first Sophomore Parents'
Weekend was held in February
1958. The class of 1960 was
the first to have the weekend.
Eve Purdom, president of the
class, was the first student
committee chairman of the
weekend.

Miss Mell was faculty chair-
man until her retirement in
1960, when Miss Gray succeed-
ed her for four years. The

chairman now is Mrs. Young
The faculty chairmanship now
rotates every three years.

Miss Mell says that the first
ye ar was very successful. "The
form se t up then is still fol-
lowed. The most popular part
of the weekend for the parents
right from the start has been
attending classe s."

Miss Mell remembers one
February when thexe was a
terrific storm with ice and
snow. "We had to put down ashes
to keep people from slipping
down, but they came on any-
way." She says that the atten-
dance at the' wee kend had grown
every year.

"Nothing Short Of Prodigious

Juilliard Quartet Plays
Haydn, Bartok Monday

"Their performance was noth-
ing short of prodigious - a
remarkable demonstration of
the finest traditions of cham-
ber music playing," says the
New York Herald Tribune of
the Juilliard String Quartet.

On February 14, at 8:15 p.m.
the Juilliard String Quartet will
give a concert in Presser Hall.

They will play Quartet in E.
Major, opus 54, number 3 by
Haydn, Quartet in F Minor,
opus 95 by Beethoven and the
Fifth Quartet(l934) by Bartok.

Robert Mann is the Quar-
tet's first violinist, second vio-
linst, Isidore Cohen, will be re-
placed for this concert by Earl
Corlyss. Raphael Hillyer will
play the viola and Claus Adam
the cello.

Library Of Congress

The group was established in
1946 by William Schuman as
the Quartet-in-Residence of the
Juilliard School of Music in
New York, and was appointed
Quartet-in-Residence of the Li-
brary of Congress in Washing-
ton. This honor entails their use
of the Stradivarius instruments
willed to the people of the Unit-
ed States by Mrs. Gertrude
Clark Whittall in 1936.

In 1961 the Juilliards became
the first American string quar-
tet to visit the Soviet Union.

"Magnificent harmony and
purity of sound and deep pene-
tration into the conceptions of
the composers," commented

the music critic of the Tass
News Agency.

Under the auspices of ANTA
and the State Department, they
have presented 35 concerts in
eleven Far-Eastern countries.

Ripe Mangoes

In Laos, tanks rumbled
through the streets while they
performed. "Yet," says cellist
Claus Adam, "the main danger
was from ripe mangoes falling
from trees in the open air con-
cert hall. We were worried not
so much about ourselves as

about direct hits on our pre-
cious instruments!"

European tours have taken the
Juilliard String Quartet all over
the continent, this side and
beyond the Iron Curtain. "In
Hungary, for instance," says
Raphcal Hillyer, "the people
told us that we had accomplish-
ed more in one night than diplo-
mats had done in two years."

Concerning m utters of reper-
tory the Quartet still upholds
its principle adopted in 1946;
"to serve all music while re-
taining a special interest in mo-
dern works."

ing pare-nts on campus so we'
can show them our classes ;md
teachers and give' them a
glimpse of life' away from
home."

These sentiments have- been
expressed in retrospect by the
mothers of two of last years'
sophomores. Mrs. Tom C. !Vn-
lanel, mother of Penny Penland,
who was vice-preside nt of the
class last year says that with
Sophomore' Parents' Weekend
she' "gained an insight into cam-
pus life."

She feels that it is a fine-
opportunity for parents to get
acquainted with the faculty.
Even though the Penlands live-
near by, they had not seen e very
nook and corne r of the school.
Mrs. Penland describes it as
a very "pleasant weekend."

Mrs. Trawick Stubbs, mother
of Kathey Stubbs, and herself
an alumna of Agne-s Scott, said
that Sophomore Parents' Week-
end was one of the grandest
weekends she ever had and that
she had never had so much fun.
She enjoyed seeing "how dif-
ferent classes are from when I
was there."

In Kathey's philosophy class
she was amazed at how well the
girls responded to a "different
language." She- also remembers
very vividly Dr. Buttrick's cha-
pel spe ech. "I go back into the
flavor of learning, challenge,
and knowledge."

Mrs. Stubbs also enjoyed
meeting the parents of the othe r
girls. She especially enjoyed
the luncheon and Dr. Alston's
address. "I got a close feel
of college- life today." To her
the "big point was the atmos-
phere and quality of the teach-
ing and the spiritual and cul-
tural atmosphere."

Sophomore Parents' Week-
end this year again promises
to be the high spot in winter
quarter both for the parents and
for the students. Some features
this year include Dr. Tumblin's
Saturday chapel on "On Doing
Something Shocking," the tours
of the Fine Arts Building ar-
ranged by Arts Council, and
rcc^ ptions in Winship.

MEMBERS OF THE JUILLIARD String Quartet, which will perform here February 14, are (L to K)
violinist Robert Mann, violinist Isidore Cohen i, cellist Claus Adam, and violinist Raphael Hillyer.

Fighting A "Busy Signal"

The telephone committee, headed by Helen Roach, has made
extraordinary progress in trying to solve the problem of pri-
vate phones.

Last October Mr. Rogers conducted a survey which showed
that the present system is being over-used. At first the plan was
to allow each girl to have her own line installed in her room.
This line would have to be removed at the end of the school year,
however, and the bi-annual damage to the walls simply would not
be economically feasible.

Rep. Council and Mr. Rogers have therefore recommended that
a telephone be permanently installed in every room, to be used
or not. There would probably be a master control in the basement,
and if a girl wanted to use her phone, it would be connected to
a main system. The bills would come to her and would be about
$7 a month.

This recommendation will be placed before the administration
for action the next time it meets.

Planning all this required much time and numerous conferences
with Miss Scandrett and Mr. Rogers, whose calendars are both
notoriously tightly filled. The PROFILE thinks action has been
remarkably swift and fruitful. Congratulations.

Critics Analyze
"Milk In Icebox"

Following the premiere per-
formance of "There's Some
Milk in the Icebox" by Bonnie
Jo Henderson, a group of At-
lanta critics and writers dis-
cussed the play.

Mrs. June Yungblut moderat-
ed the panel composed of Bar-
bara Halpern, writer with the
Academy Theatre; Pat Robert,
A tlanta Magazine drama critic;
Charles Shackleford, local
playwright; and Guy Waldron,
writer with WSB-TY.

The discussion began with
Mrs. Halpern's comment on the
humor of the play. She had not
seen anything funny in the manu-
script, yet the performance
brought out amusing lines.

Mr. Waldron, who had not
read the play, agreed thatsomr
lines were funny, but he felt
it was "gallows humor," "You
laughed as a relief," he said,
"and that need shows the
strength of the play."

"I was most impressed with
the playwright's awareness of
the grotesque and the pathetic,"
commented Miss Robert. "In
the play there is so much
strangeness that is part of the
grotesque and we laughed at the
strangeness."

Changing the direction of the
talk, Mr. Shackleford said he
believed Bonnie Jo tried "to

encompass too many different
things." He felt she imposed
upon her characters too many
profound statements that they
would not make naturally.

There was an ensuing discus-
sion over the point of realism.
Mr. Waldron said that as he
had not expected a realistc
play, the profundity did not seem
imposed.

Mrs. Halpern, however, felt
that if the play was to be un-
realistic "it was not unreal-
istic enough."

E

co no my

Mr. Shackleford pointed out
a lack of economy in the son's
entrance. He suggested leav-
ing out the son and pursuing
further Dolly's great fear of his
physical presence.

Mr. Waldron also questioned
the validity of leaving so unclear
the reason for Dolly's terror.
"You left it to my imagina-
tion," he remarked, "and
everything I thought of came out
of early Tennessee Williams."
The author admitted that he was
close.

Despite their critical com-
ments and difference ideas
among members of the panel,
majority opinion was with Mr.
Waldron that the play is
"brilliant for a first effort."

Editorial Study

Manager, Employees Give
Comments On Scott Laundry

Editor's note: Felicia Guest,
Ann Roberts, and Justice Wai-
drop visited the Agnes Scott
laundry plant this week and talk-
ed with the manager and with
some of the employees. Their
findings and opinions are re-
ported in the following article.)

Thirteen people, 11 women
and two men, work in the Agnes
Scott laundry, which is located
next door to the steam plant.
The manager of the plant is
Mr. Copeland, who has been with
Scott for four years.

Our laundry articles and all
the dining hall linen are marked,
sorted, washed, dried, and iron-
ed in one large' room. The
employees come on duty at 7:30
in the morning and leave in the
afternoon at 3:45.

They are off duty Thursday
afternoon and Saturday after-
noon, Mr. Copeland says. The'
employees have a 30 minute
break for lunch. They bring
their own lunches and eat at a
long table which is in the same

THESE TWO EMPLOYEES operate the large press which irons
sheets and flat work. The plant also handles all the flat work
for the Scott dining hall.

room with the washing machines
and presses.

There is a coke machine in
the room, and a small table with
salt, pepper, sugar, ketchup,
etc.

Most of the laundry's equip-
ment is not new, but it is in the
process of being modernized.
Manager Copeland reports that
Mr. Rogers bought one new
washing machine this fall, and
plans to buy another one next
fall.

He says also that three or four
new pneumatic presses will
make the ironing of starched
articles quicker and easier.
He adds that all the equip-
ment is "inpretty good shape."

We found that ventilation is
the plant is not good. The win-
dows are very high, and we saw
only one window fan and one
large floor fan in the room.
The air is wet and hot.

When asked about the heat,
one employee said that "it is
especially hot in the spring."

We asked Mr. Copeland if he
ever got complaints about the
hours or the working condi-
tions. He replied that he hears
very few complaints, and that
his employees "hardly ever
leave."

PNEUMATIC PRESSES ARE used in the Scott laundry to press
the starched articles. This type of press is currently being
updated at the school laundry plant.

He says that in the four years
he has been with Agnes Scott
"not over four employees have
left." But he adds that when
workers do leave "you can't
get another right off, you have
to find somebody."

Salaries for the workers are
on a graduated scale, based on
seniority, Copeland says.

We talked to one young wo-
man who has worked at Scott
for three years. Her usual job
is sorting laundry articles as
they come in, but this week she
is working with the large press
which irons sheets and other
flat work.

She says that she earns "$27
a week before deductions. "This
means that she takes home a
little more than $23 each week.

The young woman adds that
even though she has worked here
for three years, some who have
worked here for only six months
earn as much as she does. Her
estimate of the salary of the
highest paid employee is "about
$33 a week."

She says, "with the cost of
living what it is, we could cer-
tainly do with more money."

She told us that in general,
even though it is hot in the
spring, otherwise working con-
ditions "aren't too bad." She
says that one advantage of the
work is that "the hours are-
good."

Students Affirm

Affirmation

Movement

To the editor:

In answer to some statements
made and questions raised in
a recent letter concerning Af-
firmation: Vietnam, we would
like to make the following ex-
planations:

1. One of the main purposes
of Affirmation: Vietnam is to
lend morale and support to the
200,000 American men in Viet-
nam. If this is not unquestion-
ably affirmative and humani-
tarian, we would like to know
what is.

2. There seems to be a pre-
valent feeling of fear in the
world today among all types
of people, fear at becoming in-
volved in anything. We think
that it is better for students-
to become committed to some-
thing like Affirmation: Vietnam,
when and if they firmly believe
in it, rather than do nothing
about their beliefs.

This indifferent manner re-
minds one of 35 people who
stood by while a woman was
stabbed to death on a main
Street in New York. We are
not affirming for the sake of
affirming.

By sacrificing study time to
work in such a movement, no
student is failing out of school
for the sake of failing. Af-
firmation: Vietnam has a de-
finite, deep purpose, which cri-
ticism cannot counter.

3. Anyone who has studied the
history of American commit-
ment in Vietnam knows that
we are providing more than
military assistance. We are
also helping with the food pro-
blem, with agricultural deve-
lopment, industrialization, and
with health service in Viet-
nam. This is standard foreign
policy.

As for considering "any of
the Viet Cong as legitimate
South Vietnamese," how can we
consider them when their
government has not even been
recognized? We are recogniz-
ing the continuation of the go-
vernment set up in 1954 by the
free world and which is still
aligned with the free world.

Because the Viet Cong ulti-
mately have no legal right to be
in South Vietnam, how can their
government be considered le-
gitimate?

4. Whether we like it or not,
the United States is now com-
mited militarily to South Viet-
nam.

Unless this country wishes to
start breaking promises to ot-
her parts of the world, we have
got to fulfill this commitment.

Affirmation: Vietnam stands
for government as opposed to
the chaos which would result
if we started violating previous
treaties. This puts "govern-
ment" on a higher scale where
it belongs with this movement.

5. According to the United
States Constitution, the person
delegated powers of determin-
ing foreign policy is the Presi-
dent. If there is a declaration
of war, Congress must approve
it. There has been none, there-
fore, the foreign policy is in
the hands of the executive de-
partment of the government.

6. This is a time of crisis

for the U.S.: we have men abroad
fighting for an Ideal which stu-
dents at home refuse to affirm,
a situation which demands ac-
tion on the part of those who
are not afraid.

The number of endorsees
from "Billy Graham to Madi-
son Avenue" docs not show con-
formity but necessity. With an
organization composed of De-
mocrats, Republicans, Li-
berals, Conservatives, and Mo-
derates, you do not have con-
formity, but agreement more
basic than party lines.

In Affirmation: Vietnam we
are not conforming,; we arc
confirming. This is one place-
where you can confirm and pro-
claim simply, "I'm proud to be
an American citizen."

Compliments For
Success Of Dance

Dear Editor:

My compliments to Social
Council and A.A. for the best
dance weekend that I've at-
tended at Scott.

Pritchett's turned out to be
a good selection, and the spe-
cial touches like decorations
and free cokes were added at-
tractions that appealed to the
girls and their dates - respec-
tively!

The innovation of the Friday
night party was a good idea and
was especially appreciated by
the out-of-town dates.

Social Council and A.A. must
have taken to heart the "sug-
gestions" from last year, be-
cause they really cams up with
a marvelous weekend - except
for the weather. Now I'm look-
ing forward to the spring fes-
tivities. . .

History Of

Publications

Board

Dear Editor:

So much discussion has
arisen because of the establish-
ment of a publications board
that a look at the history of
resolution RC-6 seems advisa-
ble.

RC-6 was first mentioned in
Representative Council on Nov-
ember 16. It was introduced by
Felicia Guest, editor of THE
PROFILE; Beverly Allen, edi-
tor of THE SILHOUETTE; and
Bonnie Jo Henderson editor of
AURORA.

At that time they discussed
the possibilities of changing
procedure concerning publica-
tions.

At another meeting of Rep.
Council during fall quarter, the
idea was again brought up.
Questions were asked and it
was decided that the idea should
be reformulated and presented
again.

On January 18 Beverly Allen
presented RC-6, Resolution Re-
garding the Establishment of a
Publications Board. At this time

the resolution had not been
printed.

If it had been, much of the
later confusion might have been
cleared up, according to Debbie
Rosen, president of Student Go-
vernm ent.

But the problems seemed to
iron out and a roll call vote
was taken. There was much sup-
port for the resolution. There
were 26 votes for, 3 against,
and 3 people were absent.

The members who voted
against the resolution were LeC
Cfcrvis, Linda Lou Colvard, and
Mary Brown.

The Resolution was printed
and posted. The procedure for
adopting a resolution is to post
it, wait two weeks, and then
vote on it.

There was ample time and op-
portunity in these two weeks for
students to find out about RC-6
It was mentioned in Rep. Coun-
cil reports, and posted on the
bulletin board.

In student meeting on Janu-
ary 27 Debbie Rosen announc-
ed that RC-6 would be voted
on the following Thursday. She
also gave instructions for pro-
c^dure on proposing an amend-
ment to the resolution.

In the next meeting the re-
solution was read in its en-
tirety. Debbie then, following
the correct parliamentary pro-
cedure, called for a "speaker
for" the resolution. As pre-
senter of RC-6, Beverly Allen
spoke.

Then a "speaker against"
was called for. Linda Lou Col-
vard at that time presented an
amendment providing for popu-
lar election of the editor of
THE PROFILE.

There were several queries
made. A query is a question
of fact that has precedence over
all other statements and is di-
rected to someone qualified to
answer it. Beverly Allen and
Bonnie Jo Henderson respond-
ed to these queries.

In deference to time, the
chair asked for either a mo-
tion for postponement or for

the previous question. The
latter being called for, a vote
was taken concerning the a-
mendment. There were nearly
two times as many for as op-
posed.

Then a vote was taken for
the resolution as amended.
It received overwhelming sup-
port, and meeting was adjourn-
ed.

After the meeting Debbie Ro-
sen made the statement that
"it was felt by the chair that
a great mail) stylistic changes
needed to be made in the re-
solution as amended." She felt
that it was "more implicit than
explicit."

She therefore appointed a
committee headed by Linda Lou
Colvard and Beverly Allen to
stylize what was passed. This
was read to Rep. Council Tues-
day and posted. It has gone into
the Constitution and elections
will proci de accordingly.

Thanks For

Student

Cooperation

Dear Editor:

The SILHOUETTE staff ap-
preciates all the co-operation
that the organizations have giv-
en us this week with our sched-
uled and rescheduled club pic-
tures.

We were so sorry that the
plans had to be changed so many
times, but unexpected delays
and Mr. Bucher's program nec-
essitated the arrangements.

We hope that our use of more
informal and more sophisticat-
ed shots will tell the purposes
and projects of your club more
effectively this year.

"AFFIRMATION: VIETNAM'S" OPINION POLL comes to the
office of Dr. Alston; watching him sign the poll are "Affir-
mation: Vietnam" workers Sarah Uzzell (right), Tina Bender
(center), and Monteze Snyder.

A:V Receives State,
Congressional Support

In the past few weeks both na-
tional and state leaders have en-
dorsed "Affirmation: Vietnam."
The last two issues of the
Congressional Record have in-
cluded speeches supporting this
movement.

On one occasion eight of
Georgia's 10 Representatives
praised "Affirmation: Viet-
nam", and Rep. Bo Calloway
spoke for thirty minutes on this
movement.

Outside of Congress "Affir-
mation: Vietnam" has been on
four television shows in this
area, plus two nationwide t.v.
programs including "The Today
Show."

There has also been support
on the state level. The No 1
resolution passed by this year's
session of the Georgia legisla-
ture was a unanimous endorse-
ment of "Affirmation: Viet-
nam."

Businessmen, mayors, and
college and high school students
throughout the state have also
supported this movement. Some
towns, such as Griffin and var-
ious Atlanta suburbs, have spon-
sored Vietnam days and public
opinion polls.

75 F

rom

Scott

At Agnes Scott over 75 girls
have worked at the "Affir-
mation: Vietnam" headquarters
at Emory University. Accord-
ing to Sarah Uzzell, an Agnes
Scott leader in the Affirma-
tion movement, "Agnes Scott
girls were solely responsible
for the successful operation of
"Affirmation: Vietnam" head-
quarters."

During the past two weeks
Agnes Scott girls have been at
the headquarters from 9 a.m.
until 1 a.m.

Sarah said that the Speaker's
Bureau has done equally well.
This includes Agnes Scott stu-
dents Clair Allen, Carol
Blessing, Louise Hess. Susan
Landrum, Debbie Rosen, Mon-
teze Snyder, and Sarah Uzzell.

The girls have made over
200 speeches to civic clubs and
high school audiences since the
first week in January.

Another function of Agnes
Scott students has been the
coordination of public opinion
polls. Freshman Tina Bender,
helping on a high school com-
mittee, coordinated the final
two weekend drives of a public
opinion poll covering shopping
centers and major street cor-
ners downtown.

The results of this poll in-
dicate that 95 per cent of the
population support the United
States' policy in Vietnam.

Another freshman, Nancy
Still, coordinated signature col-
lecting for public opinion polls
in DeKalb County.

Contacting every beauty par-
lor in downtown Atlanta was the
job of Ann Fisher. Other Scott
students working at the head-
quarters were Monteze Snyder,

Dean Rusk

chairman of transportation;
Lane Jennings, chairman of ad-
vertising; and Lynn Cook, who
was in charge of contacting
the mayors of Georgia cities.

Sarah remarked that these
people "not only have had the
chance to work and throw them-
selves into a project, but every-
body knows a lot more about
that section of the world."

She emphasized the hard work
and fast pace that is kept at
the Affirmation headquarters.
In fact, one worker told her
recently that the pace at the
headquarters was so fast her
typing increased 20 words per
minute.

Rusk, Ambassadors Speak
At "Affirmation" Rally

The climax of the current "Affirmation:
Vietnam" movement will be a gigantic rally
in the new Atlanta Stadium Saturday, Febru-
ary 12.

Secretary of State Dean Rusk who is a native
of Georgia will be the keynote speaker of the
rally.

Georgia Governor Carl Sanders and the
two Georgia senators, Richard B. Russell
and Herman Talmadge will also participate.

All 10 of the Georgia Congressmen will
attend.

Anita Bryant will be a special guest at the
rally. Miss Bryant has recently returned
from Vietnam where she traveled with the
Bob Hope USO troupe entertaining American
soldiers.

Projected plans for the rally include co-
median Bob Hope as the master of cere-
monies.

"Bob Hope has received the affirmation
program with more enthusiasm and more
willingness to help than any other national
figure," said Sarah Uzzell, Agnes Scott stu-
dent and leader in the local "Affirmation"
program.

Ten or more foreign ambassadors are ex-
pected. They will be the ambassadors to the
United States and the United Nations from
Japan, Malaysia, Thailand, South Korea, and
South Vietnam.

In order to extend a personal invitation to
these ambassadors two Georgia college stu-
dents recently traveled to their embassies.
They dined with the ambassadors in true Ori-
ental fashion, sitting on the floor and eating
with chopsticks.

The high point of the rally will be the

presentation of the results of the recent pub-
lic opinion poll conducted by local high school
and college students to the ambassador from
South Vietnam.

The ambassador will announce this re-
newed affirmation to his people in South
Vietnam.

Supporters of "Affirmation: Vietnam"
from all over Georgia will be in attendence.
The mayors of at least 10 prominent Geor-
gia cities plan to be there.

Three chartered trains, from Savannah,
Augusta and the University of Georgia at
Athens, are bringing in participants. There
will also be motorcades from most of the
major Georgia cities and the Atlanta high
schools.

Press coverage of the rally will be pro-
vided by the major news media. In fact, if
the stadium is filled, it will be featured on
the cover of LjLie magazine the following: week.-

Th rally will also be broadcast over all
three major television networks. However,
television coverage will be blacked out in
the Atlanta area; the rally will be broadcast
on local radio.

There is ample transportation available
for Agnes Scott students. Buses will leave
from Scott at 12:30 Saturday, February 12.
The round-trip fare is 75 cents.

There will also be shuttle buses from
downtown Atlanta and Rich's.

Entertainment by high school bands and
choruses including the Emory University
chorus will be featured from noon till 2 p.m.
when the rally begins.

Sarah Uzzell stresses that this is the
biggest rally of its kind originated, planned,
and executed by students. "Every student in
Georgia ought to be there."

Junior Jaunt Aids
Vietnam Refugees

Agnes Scott's traditional Jun-
ior Jaunt will be held February
23, through Saturday February
26.

Junior Jaunt is an annual cha-
rity project sponsored by the
junior class. A slave sale Wed-
nesday night will begin the pro-
gram. Thursday, "Suppressed
Desires Day", the slaves, pro-
fessors and students, will
"serve" their "masters", and
Friday the different classes
will hold their separate pro-
jects. All the proceeds from
the projects will go to charity.

The charity this year will be
in the form of relief to re-
fugees in Vietnam. The money
will be used through the Church
World Service and the Division
of Overseas Ministers of the
National Council of Churches.
This is an emergency program
to raise a minimjm of $250,
000.

According to Marsha Daven-
port, in charge of the chari-
ties this year, the contribu-

tions will go to the "immediate
relief of human suffering."

Marsha says the project is in-
terdenominational, the money
will not be used to promote the
war effort, but to aid women,
children, and the infirm, "who
have been caught in the midst
of the war for over twenty
years."

As of January 1, 1966, one
million refugees were in need
of food, clothing, and shelter.

The average refugee exists
on six cents per day. In many
provinces with a population of
over 300,000, there are no doc-
tors at all.

The money raised will cover
a wide variety of expenses. It
will send doctors, nurses, so-
cial workers, child care ex-
perts, agronomists, and other
specialists to refugee camps,
and will also make available
food and medicines.

One dollar will provide three
hundred pounds of food or a
quantity of medicines.

"MOCKINGS"
FROM
RAMON A

Dear Mom,

I made all A's on my tests
last week I Would you believe
straight B's? Would you be-
lieve a check minus on my
Bible map, an
re pore, and a
tSt. 1 do feel
my academics,
got 5000 notes
term paper.

Remember good old Camil-
la Cordelia Covington, Mom?
Well C.C. herself came to vi-
sit me last week. She had a
little trouble finding my room.
Mr. Rogers found her in the
hall and arrested her for being
an alien. After I bailed her out
in the D.O. we sat down to
catch up on things. A few boys
came through, though, and she
immediately had ten dates. Ca-
milla's really changed, Mom.

As a matter of fact, she is
no longer chaste, cringing,
cloddy Camilla; she is now
chawhmhing, curvaceous, co-
ed Cordelia. The university has
wrought quite a change in her.
She's even sweetheart of Sig-
ma Epsilon Chi.

She told me about how she
goes out every night and I ask-
ed her how she could find time
to study. She says it's a little
rough. She's taking table-set-
ting and history of Latvian edu-
cation, but her real trouble
is with English. They've been
reading the short storiesinMc-
Call's. For their paper they
had to read several books by
one author, so she concentra-
ted on the Hardy Boys. She
must do all right; she made
Dean's List last quarter.

She was busy with dates all
weekend, so I didn't have to
entertain her. I arranged my
own adventures with two of my
junior pals Linda Marks and
Poppy Wilson. We all went tun-
nelling under the campus. I was
thoroughly equipped with pith
helmet, cyanide death pill, ci-
garette-lighter blow torch, and
my trusty U.N.C.L.E. gun.

We went under the Library,
Buttrick; between Main and Re-
bekah; from the steam plant
to the gym. Then we decided to
find new worlds to conquer.
We went under Inman where
two tunnels diverged in a yel-
low basement and we took the
one not there.

There is now a new under-
ground passage to Hopkins. It
comes up in the living room,
right by the hostess desk. It
was my first trip to Hopkins
and, contrary to all reports,
it's really a neat place.

I finally did get to visit
some with Cordelia at the Pe-
ter, Paul, and Mary Concert.
Of course, we were sitting in
the middle of a group of boys
and you can guess what hap-
pened.

Thanks for your note remind-
ing me to take care of myself.
It may have come too late.
Right after Cordelia left, I
plunged myself back into my
studies and, as usual, drown-
ed. 1 have resolved to stay up
every night until my work is
done. I haven't been to bed since
Sunday and I'm still behind.

Remember I signed up for
the badminton tournament?
Well, I was disqualified for hit-
ting 30 shuttlecocks into the
rafters. I've been keeping fit
with the Royal Canadian Air
Force exercises. Sheila Ter-
rill recommends them highly.

Love,
Ramona

Hadley School Names
Gearreald Best Student

Most people would settle for-
doing good academic work at
Agnes Scott. But Karen Gear-
reald has been "Moonlighting"
in the summer and has done so
well she has been named "Stu-
dent of the Year" by the Hadley
School for the Blind. She will be
flown in May to the annual meet-
ing of the board of directors to
receive the award.

Karen was selected from
some 2,000 students. A decid-
ing factor was probably the work
she did in German last summer,
when she completed the equi-
valent of a whole year of college
work.

Acting both as a student a no
employee, Karen also planned
two English courses for the
school. She was provided a text
for which she wrote the exams
and study guides, plus an in-
troduction on how to study the
text.

A photographer is on cam-
pus this week, taking pictures
of the "Student of the Year"
for the school's annual report
in which Karen is being featur-
ed. This report is distributed
to contributors of the non-pro-
fit organization.

The article will probably re-
cognize Karen as almost a tra-
dition of the Hadley School,
where she has taken courses
"on and off" since 1956, some
during the regular school term,
some during summers.

An English major, Karen has
a special interest in languages,
and has taken correspondence
courses in Spanish, German,
and some extra English
courses. Karen is also a Latin
and French student, and , like-
most language students, has
the most trouble with idioms
and irregular verbs.

At Hadley School she acted
as substitute Latin teacher last
summer. "I most enjoyed
getting to know my students,"
she recalls.

Although correspondence
courses cannot offer direct stu-
dent - professor contact, the
school encourages the pro-
fessors to get to know their
students. "And people reveal
themselves amazingly through
letters," Karen states.

She had a variety of students,
ranging from a West Indian
green grocer, to a civil ser-
vice worker from Lngland to a
Puerto Rican. When asked whe-
ther she was a "hard" or an
"easy" grader, Karen repli-
ed," I think I was pretty strict."

This summer Karen will work
for Hadley School again, plann-
ing courses for junior high Eng-
lish students. If "things go
well' this summer, Karen may
try to work part time while in
graduate school and perhaps
become a full time employee
after that.

body 12 through 21 can ride

"Uh, I'd, uh, like to fly to,
uh San Francisco? One of those
half price deals for us college
kids under 21?"

"You don't look 21 to me.
You look about 23."

"Well, yeah, 1 guess I do
look old for my age. Like a lot
of timss I get served in a bar,
you know, without showing my
I.D. card."

"That's another thing; to par-
ticipate in our new program you
must have an I.D. card."

"Great. You can put down
I'm 19."

"Do you have any identifica-
tion?"

"Identification?"

"We can't give you an I.D.
card without identification."

"Oh 0 Well...yeah, I've got
identification."

"Can we see it?"

"See it? Oh, yeah, sure.

There's this thing, though. It's
fixed."
"Fixed?'

"Yeah. It uh says I'm 23.
So I can get served. You know
the bit."

"Well then how can you say
you're 19 when your identifi-
cation says you're 23?"

"Look, man, who bothers to
be 23 anymore except us 19-
year-olds? Use your head."

"Birth certificate?"

"Courthouse burned down."

"Well, give us three bucks
then and you can have a card."

"Can I pay by Diner's Club?"

"Diner's Club? You have to
be 25 to get a Diner's Club
card."

"Yeah? Well, it's not in my
name but I play the bill, see?
It's in my brother - in -
; aw's name.

"How old is he?"

Nineteen. But I got it for him
by pretending to be 25. Since
it's in his name."

"Right. Then sign here."

"Thanks a lot, I mean I really
appreciate this."

"Glad to be of service.
There's only one thing."

"One thing?"

"We aren't permitted by law
to serve alcoholic drinks to
minors in flight.'

"Hell, man, that's okay. I
got I.D."

Although she- lias not definite-
ly decided on this plan, she
thinks the possibility offers

ing in education, which I want, "

stage this personal cold war so
that the absurdity of war on any
level becomes more apparent,"
comments Bonnie Jo Henderson
on her motivation for 'There's
Some Milk in the Icebox."

She has certainly fulfilled
her goal in the creation of the
play. The battle between Dolly
and Walter Roemer over the
trivial fact of the milk is fun-
damental and believably -
written.

Dolly lives in hard work and

fear of her stepson fear that

is really too passionate. She
is a realist who lives in the
world and she refuses to sym-
pathize or communicate deep-
ly with her husband.

She is disgusted with him and
she is tired of supporting him,
for she is thereby acting the
man's, not the woman's, role,
in the family.

Preserves

She sums up her social the-
ory, saying that a man should
work and fill his pockets with
money and his wife should fill
jars with perserves. The re-
mark is typically Henderson
in its crisp profundity and na-
tural growth from the situa-
tion and characters.

Dolly's husband Walter is a
man who thinks that he thinks;
he at least pretends to be me-
ditative. He does not openly
feel resentment of his inabi-
lity to be a husband, but it
seems to temper his attitude.
Basically, however, he is a co-
ward who once ran from war
and now runs from responsi-
bility; he hides behind his ill-
ness, real or imagined.

At bottom, Dolly and Walter
are entirely different people.
Their natures are summed up
in their reactions to the red
and white candy striper's uni-
form. "Like Christmas and Va-
lentine's Day rolled into one,"
cries Dolly. To Walter it looks
like flesh and blood.

His memory of war's horror
and his cowardice in the face
of it have destroyed him and

therefore poisoned Dolly's
natural joy. They are forced to
live artificially, with reversed
roles.

Objecli fixation

Hubert is an excellent touch,
the ever-present, dumb, dull
objectification of their sense-
less existence. The entrance
of Walter's son I'aul is pro-
bably unnecessary. His drunk
Singing of "I Need Thee Every
Hour" is appropriate, but his
appearance at Walter's rooms
is forced.

Not only has it been stressed
that "he never comes up-
stairs," but everything tie says
is implicit in all that goes be-
fore. Furthermore, considering
the buildup of fear in Dolly's
anticipation of his return, she
needs to react here much more
violently than she does, or can.

Elijah the icemen is a nice
character, demonstrating that
one can be content in the midst
of such drabness. He is left
with only his broken feet, yet
he finds solace with his friend,
Mockingbird the cat. Francis
Benjamin was delightful in the
role. And here we come to
the performance itself.

M u mo r

Bud Griffin was good as the
Delivery Boy, enlivening the hu-
mor that always sparks Bonnie
Jo's work. Libby Potter did a
fine job as Sally, who naively
asks Walter about "the real
war" for her English paper;
she never realizes that she
stands on the battleground of
the real war.

Bonnie Jo herself says that
before production of the play,
Dolly was only a vehicle, who
"had to say this, so Walter
could say that." In the per-
formance, however, the play
revolved around Dolly, and all
because of Malie Bruton's dy-
namic talents. Walter was not
weak, but he had to grow stron-
ger, as he did, in the course
of the action.

Both the staging and the set
were excellent. All contribut-
ed to the laudable production of
a very fine play.

College
Requests

Textbooks

The PROFILE has received a
request to aid a drive to get
good, current college textbooks
into the library at Paul Quinn
College.

Paul Quinn is a Negro church
college in Waco, Texas. It has
been able to build a new library
that will hold 50,000 books, but
there are only 14,000 books in it
now.

Bernard Rapoport, president
of the American Income Life
Insurance Company, and a trus-
tee of the college, says:

"It occurred to us, during a
recent board meeting, that many
of the college students use their
books and then don't want to
keep some of them, but really
can't get what they're worth in
selling them back to the book
stores, and that perhaps many
of these students would like the
idea of giving such books to the
library at Paul Quinn."

Mr. Rapoport said he also
thought college bookstores
around the state might find it
feasible to shop spare quantities
of current college-level books
those that are still good but
perhaps are one year out of date
for a particular school.

The books may be shipped EX
PRESS-COLLECT to: Mrs. De-
lores Harris, Librarian, Paul

tions of interested students.

Dr. John Letson, Superinten-
dant of Atlanta public schools,
has spoken of West Fulton High
School as "the most exciting
experiment in education in At-
lanta at the present time."

Certainly West Fulton has se-
veral novel aspects. It has one
of the only integrated school
faculties in Atlanta. In the last
two years, West Fulton has ex-
perienced a wholesale shift
from a completely white student
body to a predominantly Negro
student body, a shift brought
about by the school integration
policy and by the moving of Ne-
groes into the surrounding res-
idential area.

Fascinating

Practice teaching at West
Fulton is really fascinating.
I have two classes of tenth
grade world history, and there
is rarely a dull moment.

Here for the first time Ne-
gro youngsters are learning to
pay attention in class. They are
learning to discuss opinions in-
telligently and are acquiring a
larger vocabulary. Hopefully,
they are learning better self-
discipline and studyhabits.

I was somewhat surprised to
find that, although most of the
students are not poverty -
stricken their parents have not
yet been able to give them a
home environment conducive to
learning and self - motivation.
No doubt this is because the
parents themselves are poorly
educated and have just recently
reached a middle class standard
of living through their own ef-
forts.

Depressing Odds

1 have found the faculty to be
really enthusiastic and dedicat-
ed in the face of what often
seems depressing odds. For
example, 52% of the students
have serious difficulty in read-
ing. There are special classes

German Students Act

Goethe's "Der Urfaust

An early version of Goethe's
"Faust," the bewitching tale
of Faust, who in search of com-
plete understanding, makes a
pact with the devil, will be pre-
sented Wednesday, February 16
in Dana Fine Arts Building.
"Der UrFaust" will be pro-
duced in German, and an Eng-
lish scene-by-scene synopsis
will be provided in the program.

Samuel Moore Shiver, of the
Emory German Department,
plays Faust. Georgia Tech stu-
dent Hermann Flaschka, seen
previously in several campus
productions such as "Mask of
Angels," plays Mephistopheles,
the devil. Blaire-Louise Major
will portray Gretchen, with
whom Faust falls in love.

Frau Marthe will be played
by Gail Livingston, and Susan
Bergeron, also of Agnes Scott,
will play Lieschen. The three
remaining roles are played

by Emory students; Roger
Brown plays Wagner; Laura
Boddiford, the student; and Ju-
lius Arial, the evil spirit, Bo-
ser Geist.

Erika M. Shiver, head of the
Agnes Scott German Depart-
ment, is directing the play.
No admission will be charged.

The story is familiar: Faust,
searching total understanding
of all life, makes a pact with
Mephistopheles. Through him,
Faust meets Gretchen and falls
deeply in love with her. Be-
cause of his restless spirit,
he deserts her after having
seduced her.

Gretchen bears a child, and
in mad despair drowns it.
Faust, learning of her fate,
tries to rescue her from pri-
son. She refuses to go with him,
giving herself up to the merci-
ful judgment of God.

SUMMER OPPORTUNITIES

Information Available
In Vocations Office

It's that time of year again.
The time when, if you aren't
going on a world cruise this
summer or marrying a million-
aire, you are probably wonder-
ing what you will do to earn
enough money to go on that world
cruise next year.

If you don't have a summer
job waiting for you then you'll
be happy to hear that Miss lone
Murphy and Miss Sylvia Chap-
man are now making appoint-
ments to talk to students and
give them ideas about where to
write and who to see.

Miss Murphy said that they
have been receiving directories
listing opportunities for sum-
mer jobs. Agnes Scott is on the
mailing lists of many agencies
which employ summer help.

Miss Murphy and Miss Chap-
man can give information about
different programs which are
set up for college students, such
as privately owned camps and
day camps which are sponsored
by the government. Information
about paying jobs as well as
voluntary is available.

Miss Chapman will be avail-
able on Monday andTuesday af-
ternoons and Miss Murphy at
her usual hours. You may sign

up for appointments in the voca-
tional office.

The vocational office has
compiled information about the
summer jobs held- by Agnes
Scott '-Students last year. Miss
Murphy said that though this
may not be completely accurate,
about 25 per cent of the stu-
dent body held jobs last sum-
mer, some on a voluntary basis,
some paid. The salaries rang-
ed from $18 to $1025.

'The ability to get a job goes
up with class rank," says Miss
Murphy. The reason for this is
that although industries believe
that students should have sum-
mer jobs, qualifications get
stiffer. There has been an in-
crease in available jobs during
the past years. There will be
10 per cent more jobs avail-
able in 1966, but there will be
16 per cent more student ap-
plying for them However,
salaries are expected to rise
three or four per cent.

Miss Murphy added a note of
caution. She said that over the
country, most organizations re-
port that they discard one third
of their applications because of
carelessness in filling them out,
incompleteness, and sloppiness.

Olivier's Othello
Moving Portrayal

"It is the most moving the-
atrical experience I have ever
had or ever expect to have,"
says Dr. George P. Hayes of
Laurence Olivier's "Othello."

"Of course, you can object
to individual features," he went
on. For instance, Othello, as a
Moor, can be black, but he is
not a Negro. Olivier emphasiz-
ed Negroid traits to "play up
to the Negro movement." Also,
the Moor is descended from
kings, he is looked up to as
general of Venice; yet Olivier
was barefoot.

Nevertheless, Dr. Hayes
feels that the play was "made
for Olivier" for he was "made
for passion." Not a great in-
tellect as an actor, he captured
both the terror and the pity
in Othello.

His rage was real; it seemed
"to come from the inside." He
was an object of terror for Des-
demona and for the audience,
which is "part of the play's
effect." He "has the fire to
create that terror."

The pity in the play he con-
veyed equally well. "How much
nobility there was in him, I
don't know," says Dr. Hayes.
"Perhaps there was not enough
of his loving, noble nature."
His kind innocence came out,
however, when Iago asks if Des-
demona has a handkerchief with
strawberry design and Othello
replies, "I gave her such a
one 'twas my first gift." (Ill,
iii). "For the first time, the
pathos of that line came home to
me/- remarks Dr. Hayes. Oli-
vier's acting "gave a wonderful
new light to that line."

As for the others, Iago was
"good as far as he went," but
one side of his character, that
of his intellect, summed up in
his line "I am nothing if not
critical" (II, i) and all his
speculations of the second act
were left out.

His "sensual suggestion side"
was very good, however.

His portrayal weakened at the
end when he was borne off,
cringing and yelling at the
threatened torments. This should
not be the final action of the
powerful man whose strength of
character draws our admiration
from the first. This is not the
man who, though evil, wins our
regard in his proud promise
"From this time forth I never
will speak word." (V, ii).

Desdemona did "all right"
with the willow song, but, as Dr.
Hayes points out, that is one
place where Verdi could go
beyond Shakespeare with his
music. The "Ave Maria" of the
opera perfectly caps the scene.

Olivier was "faithful to the
text." He did not modernize the
text, as in "Hamlet" or change
the order of events, as in "Ric-
hard IIL" The only major om-
mission was that of some of
Iago's rather important lines.

He worked for months on the
role, working out each line ex-
actly as he wanted. He also
lowered his voice from its
natural tenor to a rumbling
baritone.

The play is superior partly
because of the time devoted to
it. The actor has done the role
many times, Therefore, like
great actors of the past, he-
has "grown into the role and
can see now meanings in it."

Another factor of superiorty
was the careful working out of
details. The most vivid was the
theme of the rose. Othello first
enters smelling a large red
rose, having just plucked both
it and Desdemona. The rose
returns in his last scene speech
over the sleeping Desdemona
when he says, "When I have
pluck'd the rose, I cannot give
it vital growth again, It needs
much wither: I'll smell it on
the tree" (V, ii).

Such intricate care and such
vitality and ability as Olivier
gives the role, make "Othello"
a unique, moving experience.

Students Hold Chapel
Debate On Vietnam

Last week's Tuesday chapel featured student debate on the United States presence and action in
Vietnam. Summaries of the opposing views follow.

rro

by Claire Allen

Historically, legally, and mo-
rally, the United States has a
commitment to the peoples of
South Vietnam. From an his-
torical viewpoint, the United
States has been involved in the
affairs of South Vietnam since
1950 when this country extend-
ed diplomatic recognition to
South Vietnam's government.

In 1951, President Truman
sent direct economic assistance
to this country at the request
of the French nation. When the
French were defeated by the
North Vietnamese led by Ho
Chi Minn in 1954, the United
States attended the Geneva con-
vention at which the defeated
French and the victorious North
Vietnamese signed the "Gene-
va Accords" which were to end
the hostilities between the nor-
thern and southern portions of
Vietnam.

The "Geneva Accords" pro-
vided for the country to be di-
vided at the seventeenth parallel
with neither zone to be used
as a basefor aggression against
the other. From the very be-
ginning, the North Vietnamese
broke the treaty by engaging in
political and military subver-
sion in South Vietnam.

I) inn

Although Diem, the head of the
South Vietnamese government,
called for free elections in his
country, he refused to join with
the North Vietnamese in holding
elections because he felt that
they had no intention of up-
holding their commitment to
the "Geneva Accords". Since
1960, the United States has
sent military aid to South Viet-
nam to aid her people in their
struggle against the Communist-
led North Vietnamese.

Legally, under the terms of
the SEA TO treaty signed by the
nations of Great Britain,
France, Australia, New Zea-
land, the Phillipine Republic,
Thailand, and Pakistan, the
United States may be asked to
send aid to any of these nations
which requests it.

SE iTO

Each of the members of
SEATO has asked us to aid
South Vietnam in her struggle
against Communism. The legi-
timate government of South
Vietnam has repeatedly ask-
ed for the aid of the United
States in her efforts to re-
sist the aggression of the North
Vietnamese. South Vietnam has
emphasized that she cannot re-
sist Communist aggression
without our aid.

Morally, we have a commit-
ment to the peoples of South

Vietnam to honor our word
and to help them to build a
free, progressive society with-
out the domination of either the
East or the West. Many South
Vietnamese and Americans
have given their lives for the
cause of a free republic in
South Vietnam.

The Department of Defense
estimates that if we pull out
of South Vietnam now, the North
Vietnamese Communists will
kill 1,000,000 of the South Viet-
namese people inretaliationfor
their resistance. We cannot af-
ford to abandon the free peo-

If there is something to affirm
in U.S. policy in Southeast Asia,
it is the democratic principle
of a people's right to self-de-
termination. This does not mean
a kind of self-determination-as
long-as-we-like-it policy that
our government has followed in
the past.

We must accept the fact that
there are those people for whom
a democracy on the American
model and the Soviet form of
government are equally objec-
tionable and unworkable f Their
expression of national will must
be found in a form of govern-
ment distinct from either ideo-
logical camp.

There are things in our go-
vernment's present policy
which should be objectionable
to persons of whatever politi-
cal persuasion. Rather than en-
couraging honest debate on
foreign policy the government
has been increasingly identi-
fying dissent with disloyalty.

Effects can be seen in an
order issued for the immediate
re-classification to a 1-A status
of students protesting U.S.
Vietnamese policy at the Uni-
versity of Michigan, the fail-
ure of a critical legislator to
be seated in the Georgia House,
and the jeering in the U.S.
Senate of a statesman of such
stature as Wayne Morse of Ore-
gon.

An attitude of public respect
and confidence in the govern-
ment is not inspired either by
repeated press indications of
governmental misinformation
to the public;the fact, for in-
stance, that there was no clear-
cut cessation of bombings this
past summer, and that there was
an opportunity for negotiation
during the politically sensitive
election period this past au-
tumn, which was ignored.

When such embarrassing de-
tails do come to light the go-
vernment might at least pre-
serve stature by acknowledging
past mistakes rather than
plunging its head ostritch-like
into the sand and shouting hys-
terical invective to critics.

Several facts present them-
selves as realities which must
be dealt with to point the dif-

ficult way to a lasting solu-
tion. A policy of escalation only
invites reciprocal escalation. If
we bomb ports in North Viet-
nam, we have equally accessi-
ble ports which are open to at-
tack. ..and thus up the scale of
military horror.

Peacekeeper

The United States may pride
itself on being the strongest
nation and thus the peacekeeper
of the world. But it cannot ignore
the fact that nuclear strength
is no aid to proficiency in
guerilla warfare. Such war-
fare is peculiarly well-adapt-
ed to the inhabitants of the ter-
ritory., and is hostile to foreign
combattants on that land.

The other and most impor-
tant fact essential to any dura-
ble peace in Southeast Asia is
that the U.S. cannot go it alone.
It is primarily an Asian pro-
blem and can best be dealt
with by an Asia ^organization,
SEATO. This would remove the
taint of imperialism and ra-
cism.

It would also place the re-
sponsibility for preservation
and self-determination of a re-
gion squarely where it belongs,
with the nations comprising that
area. The clearest hope re-
mains a policy of collective
security for a number of small
nations which have good reason
to object both to western and
Communist intervention.

United Nations

If SEATO refuses the chal-
lenge, the United Nations is the
only possible alternative. In
a conflict whose repercussions
could destroy mankind, the pro-
per arbitrating body must be
that of the world theater.

United States foreign policy
must undergo serious and dras-
tic revision, and southeast Asia
may be the testing ground. We
must quit insisting that any
nation will choose "our" form
of government when it attains
the proper degree of enlighten-
ment, and until that time we will
see to it that it does not swerve
from the proper course.

Let us rather endeavor with
the family of nations to provide
a situation conducive to poli-
tical self-determination within
a country, and then accept the
validity of the results.

Lawyer Clarifies Policy
For Judicial Council

IT WAS OFF TO the '^Affirmation: Vietnam" rally at Atlanta
Stadium for many Scott students Saturday; buses carried the
booted, umbrella-carrying girls who supported the student-
run organization's big assembly, even in the driving rain.
Comments heard on the way back from the rally: "Something
111 never forget." and "Moving, definitely worth itl"

by Susan Ledford
Judicial Chairman

In a recent study of the current Policy
Regarding the Use of Alcoholic Beverages,
Judicial Council gained information which we
felt should be shared with the campus at
large.

Because of questions in our own minds and
because of questions that had been directed
to us by other students, the board asked,
with Dr. Alston's help, that Professor Wil-
liam Agnor of the Emory Law School advise
us on several points of Georgia law which
are incorporated within the Agnes Scott
policy.

Mr. Agnor cited for us the following sec-
tion of the Georgia Code:

"Any person who knowingly, by
himself or another, shall furn-
ish or cause to be furnished, or
permit any other person in his
employ to furnish any minor
spirituous or intoxicating or
malt liquors, without first ob-
taining written authority from
the parent or guardian of said
minor, shall be guilty of a fel-
ony and shall be punished by
confinement and labor in the
penitentiary for not less than
one year or more than five
years."

It should be noted that while the Georgia
Code places the burden of responsibility up-
on the server or seller,our policy, under the
tenets of the Honor System, places additional
responsibility upon the student and minor be-
ing served.

In reference to permission for minors, Mr.
Agnor quoted the following from Judge Bleck-
ley's decision in the 1891 Case of Gill vs.
State:

'The parent must hold control of the sup-
ply, both as to time and quantity, and the
written authority must be special... It must
be applicable to one occasion only and must
be repeated separately for each subsequent
occastion."

Thus, under this currently acknowledged
interpretation, any sort of blanket or form
permission, which we had previously consid-
ered, would be invalid as it would constitute
an illegal delegation of authority from parent
to child.

Such specific permissions from parents do
not need to be seen or approved by any mem-
ber of the administrative staff of the college,
but should be kept by the individual student as
evidence of parental consent.

Judicial Council does not seek to merely
enforce Georgia Law, but hopes to uilize
this knowledge of our greater context in
exercising its jurisdiction with respect to stu-
dent policies affecting the college.

Soph Comments

Parents See 'ReaV
Side Of Soph Life

by Susan Aikman

Sophomore Parents' Weekend
was observed this year in its
usual festive way. Many inno-
vations were observed in mem-
bers of the Popeye class beds
were made, rooms were clean,
smokers became non-smokers,
and sophomores studied for
class with the idea of active
participation.

Not only did the sophomores
prepare for the weekend in un-
usual ways, but several strange
behavior patterns were noted
among faculty members as well.

Mr. Doerp wore a white shirt
to class; Mr. Tumblin left his
pipe in his office, and Mr. Nel-
son was conveniently unavail-
able for class.

Parents learned much during
the classes which they attended.
Some perhaps found the answer
to questions like, "But Cas-
sandra, why did you get a D in
fundamental radiology?"

These answers came to new-
ly enlightened parents in sev-
eral ways. After a short time
in a dormitory one father was
heard to remark, "Now I see
why you have to go to the li-
brary to study I"

Others found that courses
just aren't as simple as they
sound. Many bewildered moth-
ers and fathers realized that
Mr. Chang's Bible class is cer-
tainly nothing like Sunday
School.

Popeye parents showed their
interest in the school by the
questions asked at the Saturday
luncheon. These questions by
the way were handed in anony-
mously prior to the luncheon.

The weather did not dampen
the spirits as sophomores and
their parents arrived at the Al-
stons' reception Saturday af-
ternoon.

What's a little water to some-
one like Popeye? The only thing
really dampened was the Al-
stons' rug.

This reception was very ef-
ficient but also very personal.

After being met by Mrs. Young,
guests proceded to the coat
room where the Pepes and Miss
Ripy collected coats and gave
out hat checks.

Dr. McNair then guided
guests to the reception line
made up of Dean Kline and the
Alstons, who stopped to talk to
each person coming down the
line. The food was served by
members of the Dean's staff.

Sophomore Parents' Week-
end again proved to be a device
to pull the slumping sopho-
mores through winter quarter.

It is one of the high spots in
the life of every Agnes Scott
student. Even members of other
classes enjoyed it upper-
classmen with wonderful mem-
ories and freshmen with high
expectations.

Clocks

You won't believe this. Last Saturday night
the clocks in Mammy's Shanty were stopped
at 2:02.

John Updike

I recommend John Updike to those of you
who are not amused by the Tom Wolfe brand
of current American fiction. First andfore-
most, Updike has compassion, a love for
strangers and for things he does not know.
He hasn't been away from Harvard long enough
to have lost his ability to pin down the illu-
sive world we know; yet he can write about
his youth with a sure, steady perspective.

He is a craftsman, and in most of his work
he is as concerned with style as he is with
characterization and "message." His short
stories, especially, are polished and te*rse.
Each sentence is as carefully worked as is
the story as a whole.

His latest work is Of The Farm, a rather
short novel which leads him away from what
Douglas Davis calls his "verbal athletic-
ism." Here Updike has only four charac-
ters, and he foregoes any and all devices
which might distract him from saying what
he has to say about these people. Like al-

most all his fiction, the resolution is, in
Davis' term, bittersweet.

His two volumes of poetry, Telephone Poles
and The Carpentered Hen, are full of short,
light pieces. They are the work of a writer
who has put aside his serious craftsmanship
to toy with words awhile.

It is in his nonfiction, mostly reporting
work he did for the New Yorker and recently
compiled under the title Assorted Prose, that
one of Updike's rarest qualities comes out.
He can express the ineffable without actually
saying it. Because he knows better than to
try to use words for that which is inexpres-
sible, he devotes himself instead to the con-
struction of a frame which outlines and en-
closes what he has to say.

For example, his coverage of Ted Wil-
liams' last baseball game in Fenway Park is,
in his own words, a "labor of love." Al-
though he says no more than any other re-
porter would say, what he communicates is
much more than a sports write-up. He man-
ages to arrange his material in such a way
that at the end it has enclosed and frozen a
meaning and understanding that is too per-
ishable to survive being forced into a word
or a sentence.

It is the greatest writing skill to admit
what words cannot do, to work on the lan-
guage's own terms, and then to succeed in
getting exquisitely fragile meanings com-
municated anyway.

Dining Hall
Food Better
Than Some

Dear Editor,

What is all this noise about
the food in the dining hall?
Asa graduate of many forms
of academic eating, I am
somewhat dismayed by these
rantings. Maybe a word or two

PRSFession

STUDENT

about my experience with oth-
er forms of campus cookery
will help inject new zest into
student tastebuds.

Sorority eating was cer-
tainly more consistent, but
then consistency becomes less
desirable when it's always in
the shape of a Skippy peanut
butter jar.

Then, came French student
restaurants. Any dreams of
great cuisine were shattered
the first time I moved down the
line, tin plate in hand.

The concept of choice is un-
known in such places, so if you
wanted to have anything to pick
over, you had to accept sans
mot the blobs of lentils, nood-
les,- and gravy with meat bits.

Top it all off with straw-
berry yogurt, and you lasted
for an hour and a half at the
most.

Two years later, and ten
pounds lighter, I entered the
graduate school phase. What
glorious freedom, what a vic-
tory over mass feeding to be
able, at long last, to eat what,
when and where one chose.

Long about January, boiling
mushroom soup gushered forth
all over my hotplate, and ef-
forts to clean it in my bath-
room sink were, I'm sorry to
say, not successful.

Dining freedom took a nose-
dive on that fateful day. Add-
ed to this discomfort was the
humiliation of standing in the
checkout line at the grocery
store with nothing but cans in
your basket. The average
housewife can be most abu-
sive, without ever saying a
word.

Now, we come to the glam-
ourous career girl stage.
Modern science moves for-
ward with remarkable speed,
but to date I can still find only
six or seven kinds of TV din-
ners in the biggest supermar-
kets in town. And only one of
these, the turkey dinner, rates
more than a one-night-per-
week consumption.

So, friends, if you don'tlike
your lunch, pass your plate to
me. Itll taste great.

While a senior at Macalester
College in Minnesota, Marilyn
Hoff decided to try to write a
novel about college students for
her honors thesis.

With a lot of hard work and
the continued support of her
honors examiner, she succeed-
ed so well that DINK'S BLUES
won her a McKnight Founda-
tion Award and was published
by Harcourt, Brace & World
on February 9.

Her concern while writing
DINK'S BLUES, says Miss Hoff,
"was not to tell about student
life; it was to create a parti-
cular kind of character with a
particularly wild imagination
and image of herself, a parti-
cular kind of audacity, and a
particularly significant effect
on other people: a person who
lived as though continually an
actress, who would dream up
plots for herself, and then, as

unlikely as they were, would live
them."

Miss Hoff interrupted her
four years at Macalester to
spend one semester as an ex-
change student at a Negro col-
lege in Knoxville, Tennessee, an
experience which she considers
"deeply significant."

When not writing or study-
ing, she has worked as swimm-
ing instructor, playground
director, door-to-door sales-
woman, and factory hand.

She also spent one summer in
Rome where she worked as a
waitress. She enjoys painting,
sculpting, and playing the
guitar.

Miss Hoff was born In Iowa
Falls, Iowa, but grew up in
Fergus Falls, Minnesota. She is
now twenty-three, lives in St.

Cheaper By The Dozen
Mother Visits Scott

by Susan Aikman

In case anyone wondered who
the cute little lady eating din-
ner with Miss Groseclose, the
Alstons, Miss Boney and sev-
eral students in the dining hall
last Thursday was, she is one of
America's leading industrial
engineers and most famous
mothers.

Mrs. (Dr.) Lillian Gilbreth
visited Agnes Scott last Thurs-
day at the invitation of Miss
Nancy Groseclose. She was in
Atlanta at the meeting of the
Southeastern Section of the
American Institute of Industrial
Engineers.

Mrs. Gilbreth is perhaps
most widely known as the moth-
er of the dozen in Cheaper by
the Dozen which was written by
her son and daughter, Frank
and Ernestine (Carey).

The book ends with Mrs. Gil-
breth 's making the statement,
"I can go ahead with your fath-
er's work" after his death.

She certainly has lived up to
this prediction. Her presence
in Atlanta last week bears this
out.

She spent last Thursday on
the Georgia Tech campus giv-
ing a few talks. Friday she had
conferences with industrial en-
gineering majors.

Friday night her visit was
culminated when she attended a
dinner honoring Dr. Frank
Groseclose, Miss Groseclose's
brother.

Mrs. Gilbreth made a state-
ment with which the majority
of Agnes Scott students would
agree when she said, 1 'I think
Georgia Tech is a fine place."

When asked about the movie
made from Cheaper by the Doz-
en, Mrs. Gilbreth said she lik-
ed it but that she liked the play
written by a young Chicago man
better.

She likes to "see the child-
ren taking part" in the history.

There has been talk of mak-
ing a musical from Cheaper by
the Dozen but the plans have not
worked out yet. Mrs. Gilbreth
has heard some of the music
and thinks it very "attrac-
tive/

She says that she "would
love to come take a course
here." She is very interested
in the theater. She once at-
tended a theater workshop at
the University of California in
Berkeley and felt that it was a
very "rewarding experience."

She likes now to spend more
and more of her time on college

campus to see "young people
coming along."

Agnes Scott students who had
the privilege of meeting her
are certainly glad she spent
some time on this campus.

Mrs. Gilbreth, in carrying on
her husband's work after his
death in 1924, is now at 87 one
of America's leading efficiency
experts. She was named Wo-
men of the Year in the late
1940's.

She originally got her B.A. in
English and psychology, but her
husband wanted her to work
with him. She went back to
school and got degrees in in-
dustrial engineering.

"I worked with my husband
and am still carrying on."

While registering for Sopho-
more Parents' Weekend, par-
ents were given a chance to ask
questions for which they want-
ed faculty-slant answers.

Saturday at the Sophomore
banquet, the question and an-
swer period revealed rather
clearly what is on their minds
nowadays.

Questions ran the gamut from
cars for Sophomores and tui-
tion increases to the problems
of tensions on students and
preparation of Scotties to cope
with the cold cruel world.

Someone even wanted to
know if we had a chapter of
Students for Democratic Ac-
tion on campus.

Several Sophomores were
found out by parents as Dean
Kline answered questions
about the problems of the lack
of spare time and the effects
of tensions on the student.
Dr. Alston came quickly back
with 'That's just Sopho-
mores" as the former ques-
tion was applauded.

Lack of efficiency and
"stewing" take a lot of spare
time, according to Dean Kline.

Dean Scandrett was given
the task of answering to what
kind of effort is made to give
students a well-rounded social
life. Georgia Tech and Emory
certainly play a part in Agnes
Scott's social life, but Atlanta
and its cultural side have much
to offer student s-with or with-
out boys along.

She declared herself open to
"social suggestions" which
would improve girls' dating
life, but her position on the
ultimate goal was clear: "I

by Virginia Russell

know of no way to find the bov
or the girl, and I speak from
experience."

Asked about Agnes Scott's

plans for the future, Dr. Mc-
Nair came up with several
surprising answers.

In the next ten years, the
Board of Trustees plans to
add $13,350,000 to its pro-
gram. The money will be di-
vided between Scholarship En-
dowment, General Endow-
ment, and a building fund.

This is what Dr. McNair
calls 'The long future at
Agnes Scott."

This planning is the last
great work of President
Emeritus McCain, in whose
memory a Lectureship En-
dowment Fund will be set up.

A drive for money will be
led by Mortar Board starting
in the spring of 1966.

Dean Kline's answer in re-

gard to the qualifications used
in selecting teachers for Ag-
nes Scott sounded suspicious-
ly like the qualifications used
in selecting students for Agnes
Scott.

The last question gave Dr.
Alston a chance to launch into
his annual speech to Fresh-
men on the controls held over
the thinking of Agnes Scott
students. It was concerned
with the changing ideas in the
world today and what is being
done for Scotties to prepare
us to either agree or disagree
with them.

His answer probably alarm-
ed some parents, but probably
reassured many Sophomores.
It was, in short, that Agnes
Scott guides its students rath-
er than controlling them. The
faculty feels that students are
capable of thinking for them-
selves and coping with new
ideas.

THE PROFILE

Pomerance Leads Rebels,
Leaps From Birthday Cake

If you have been watching the
la*e show ( or rather, the late
show in between commercials)
perhaps you've noticed a fami-
liar face trying to convince you
to join the "Dodge Rebellion."
Dale Pomerance, a senior at
Scott, is that familiar face.

Dale has been modeling since'
the age of fourteen, but she

MOCKINGS

FROM
RAMON A

Dear Mom,

I'm sorry if my handwriting's
a bit shakey, but I'm in the In-
firmary. My all-night stands
proved a little too much for me
and the results were devastat-
ing.

I came down here last Sat-
urday with a fever and a sore
throat. So far, I've been test-
ed for jungle rot, beri-beri,
scurvy, malaria, and would
you believe chicken pox?

All those tests proved nega-
tive and the doctor was at a
loss until it occurred to her I
might have that rare disease,
mono. She immediately con-
sulted four medical encyclo-
pedias, seven textbooks, and a
specialist, Dr. No. She still
doesn't have the report,
though.

One thing is certain: I am
sick. There's also another
small problem. As the nurse
was helping me out of bed last
night, I slipped and sprained
my wrist. But I think it 11 be
all right by the time they de-
cide on my original ailment.

Saturday night I thought I
was delirious. I heard all this
wild jungle noise. Then I rea-
lized it was only people coming
in from dates.

Noise is very disturbing
when I am on my deathbed.
Like Sunday. I thought it was
Batman and Robin at the very
least when I heard a sudden
swoosh. But no. Only a few
happy-go-lucky skateboard-
ers.

The one nice thing about be-
ing in that weekend was that
the parents of a couple of
sophomores came down to vis-
it. Everything I've heard about
Sophomores Parents' Week-
end says it was great. It's
really helped the sophs get
through winter quarter.

I even know a few who've
burned their applications to
U.N.C. Now I wonder what
will help me get through win-
ter quarter.

All my professors have been
very nice. He says it's all
right if I just get in my term
paper by the opening of school
next year.

Of course, by being sick last
weekend I missed the big rally.
Cassandra, however, gave me
a glowing report. Actually,
she had a few reservations
about "Affirmation: Viet-
nam," but you know Cassan-
dra. She cannot resist a
chance to be involved.

She also couldn't pass up
the idea of riding in a motor-
cade to a demonstration. She's
worn out so many shoes walk-
ing.

Don't worry about my health,
Mom. I'm confident Hi be out
by spring vacation. Write me
a long letter about Butch and
all the gang.

Love,
R amona

doesn't seem to have any aspi-
rations to become a "high
fashion model." She is planning
to be married in March to Dr.
Bruce Gillette of Atlanta. Af-
ter graduation she plans to
teach.

Dale describes her varied ex-
periences in modeling as "fas-
cinating." As she says "Every
job is different."

Dale works for a modeling
agency and has done everything
from tea room modeling to
jumping out of birthday cakes
at the Qrand Ball Room at the
Marriott.

Recently she and several he-
lium balloons were the con-
tents of a gigantic birthday cake.
The hollow cake was part of
the festivities of a convention
at the Marriott, Dale and the
balloons popped out while the
guests sang "Happy Anniver-
sary." Fbr the sake of pro-
priety Dale added that this
wasn't the usual "girl-in-cake-
pop-out." Her attire consisted
of black bermudas and a frilly
white blouse.

Eale regards as her most
harrowing experience the time
she did a live TV commerical.
She had on a leopard skirt,
opera stocking and heels and
was carrying a tray of ice
cream (obviously, she was ad-
vertising for ice cream

company). Dale then proceeded
to trip over a cord and almost
dropped the tray. Fortunately
she managed to regain control
of the situation so that no one
but she knew what had happen-
ed. Her comment to this was
"I'll never again do a live com-
mercial."

Fbr all aspiring Agnes Scott
students who have an unquen-
chable desire to get into the
fashion world, Dale suggests
that you have a composite made
of yourself (Be sure to get
yourself at the best angles -
naturally), and distribute it a-
mong fashion agencies. But if
this doesn't interest you, per-
haps we best consider Eale's
ultimate choice and sign up for
education courses so we can
teach.

FRIDAY'S CHAPEL was the scene of the last appearance of
Scott's College Bowl team before the March 6 appearance.
Participating were (left to right) Katherine Bell, Malinda
Snow, Karen Gearreald, and Betty Butler.

Pernell Roberts Back
In Atlanta For "Seesaw

Actor Pernell Roberts has
returned to Atlanta this week to
star in the Municipal Theatre's
Winter Play Season production
of "Two for the Seesaw."

Roberts was bom in Way-
cross, Georgia, and attended
Georgia Tech, where he was
an engineering major. While at
Tech, he enlisted in the U.S.
Marine Corps where he served
two years.

After the service, he returned
to college at the University of
Maryland where he became in-
terested in acting. After acting
in Cleveland and Washington,
D.C., he appeared in New York
with the American Lyric The-
atre in a series of one-act
operas, ballets, and dance
operas.

In 1955 he won the Drama
Desk Award for Best Actor
Off Broadway for his efforts in
Shakespearean drama, notably
"Romeo and Juliet," "Mac-
beth", and "Henry VI."

Leaving N. Y. for Hollywood,
he appeared in "Desire Under
the Elms" and "The Sheep-
man." He starred in such te-
levision productions as "Ma-
tinee Theatre," "Gunsmoke,"
and "Cimarron City."

From these roles he became
a member of one of television's
most famous families the
Cartwrights of "Bonanza." Af-
ter several seasons onthePon-
derosa as Adam, Roberts de-
cided to return to the live the-
atre.

BUSY WITH CLASSES and modeling, Dale Pomerance pauses
on the campus.

Dynamic Duo Sweeps
Campuses Nationwide

The Collegiate Press Service

Any possibility that camp
humor has run its course on
the campus was laid to rest
with the advent of the "Bat-
man" television series.

Although the New York
Times critic decided that
"Batman" was too good to be
bad enough to be good, thou-
sands of students apparently
agree that the worst is yet
to come.

At the University of Wash-
ington, socialogist Vance Pac-
kard spoke to a similar
audience that those crowded
around the television sets in
the student union and every
one of them, doubtless, status
seekers, if that is any con-
solation.

At the University of Illi-
nois, officials installed 100
extra chairs in the student
union TV room but still had
to turn students away. For the
next installment, they set aside
the ballroom of the union
building and still had standing
room only.

Perhaps they recalled with
horror their experience of two
years ago, when they used
a soldering iron to fix the
dial on one set to the uni-
versity's educational TV sta-
tion. Students used a wrench to
force it back to "Gunsmoke."

The student center and
dormitory lounges were re-
ported overflowing at the Uni-
versity of Kentucky as each
new installment of the series
was aired. Especially popular
was the student center lounge
where students could see
"Biff, Zap, Bam, Blam.."
come out in purple, green, and
yellow on the color television.

At the University of Michi-
gan, the Michigan Daily' s tele-
vision critic tried to explain
why students who digest Sam-
uelson by day and Sartre by
night could be drawn so mag-
netically toward the "electronic
and intellectual vacum tube."
He quoted Phineas T. Barnum:
"No one ever lost money un-
derestimating the intelligence
of the American people."

Governments

Conference

Plans are being made for the
Southern Intercollegiate Asso-
ciation of Student Governments
Conference which will be held
on the Agnes Scott campus April
14-16.

Marilyn Abendroth is co-
chairman of the committee and
"is working hard to make the
conference a big success," said
Alice Zollicoffer.

The students who will be at-
tending the conference are all
from girls' schools with the ex-
ception of representatives from
the girls' part of the student
bodies from two coed schools.

Zolly says that the weekend
should be really exciting and
that everyone involved in the
planning is enthusiastic about it.

Bloodmobile
Due Here
March 31

by Kat Mitchell

Athletic Association is pre-
paring for perhaps its most
worthwhile project of the year
- the Red Cross blood drive.
This is a new undertaking for
Agnes Scott, but in other parts
of the United States over 300
colleges and universities parti-
cipate in similar programs.

There are two reasons why
A. A. feels that the blood drive
will be good for our campus.
First, it is an opportunity to get
outside of our campus and to
perform a service for the com-
munity. Second, this project
will be a joint effort on the part
of students, faculty, and ad-
ministration.

The Bloodmobile will be on
campus March 31.

The members of A.A. are en-
thusiastic about the blood drive.
Perhaps it will be the beginning
of a project that can be con-
tinued in the years to come.

Help Junior Jaunt Drive

Junior Jaunt weekend started
last night with the Senior Slave
Sale. Slaves were auctioned off
as the highlight of the evening
and, as an added attraction,
homemade candies, cookies,
pies, and cakes were available
at the faculty booth.

The second event of Junior
Jaunt, Suppressed Desire's
Day, is taking place right now.
Uninformed freshmen and ab-
sentminded upperclassmen
should remember the following
rules for this annual event:

Sports attire may be worn to
classes and to the dining hall
but not off- campus; quiet hours
will be suspended one hour be-
tween 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. and be-
tween 7 p.m. and 10 p.m.;

Elevators in Buttrick may be
used ; smoking will be per-
mitted in the lower dining hall
during lunch; students may vent
their emotions in the library
between 1 and 2 p.m.

Tonight the juniors will pre-
sent Club '67 which was be-
queathed to them by the class
of 1965. The theme of Club '67
will be 'The Bat Cave" and
will feature a satirical skit star-
ring Bat Agnes and Scottie Won-
der.

Refreshments will be served
and admission will be 50 per
person.

Cotillon Club

Sponsors
Cavallaro

The Decatur Cotillion Club is
sponsoring Carmen Cavallaro,
"The Poet of the Piano,"in
concert with his trio at 8 p.m.
March 5 at The Biltmore Ho-
tel.

All proceeds will benefit the
Club's charities, one of which
is an annual scholarship gift
to Agnes Scott College.

Mr. Cavallaro has earned a
solid reputation in the world
of music for his interpretations
in jazz, swing, general music
and semi-classics.

He is as much at home with
his celebrated rendition of Cho-
pin's "Poloniase" as with his
popular Latin arrangement or
in the current Jazz idiom. His
concert will have something for
everyone.

Those interested in tickets
may sign a list in the Dean's
Office or purchase them at
Clark Lquipment Company in
Decatur.

Tomorrow night will be old
English night at Scott. At 5:30
the sophomores are having a
Tom Jones dinner complete with
entertainment in the main din-
ing hall; visitors are welcome
and admission will be 50# per
person.

Immediately after the dinner,
at 7:30, the freshmen will have
a dance in the Hub.

The Hub will be decorated like
an English pub to continue the
English theme. Admission to
the dance will be 50< per person.

NSA V ice President
Stresses Student Power

Jim Johnson, National Affairs
Vice - President of the National
Student Association, spoke for
Scott students Thursday March
17.

He discussed Agnes Scott's
involvement in NSA and answer-
ed questions raised by Tom
Houston, head of the anii-NSA
drive, who spoke at Scott early
in February

NSA has been accused of be-
ing "left of center" and of not
being concerned enough with the
problems of student government
on the individual campus.

Tom Houston, president of the
Young Americans for Freedom,
told Scott students that a student
organization should not pass re-
solutions on current political
situations and then use these
statements when lobbying or
protesting certain actions.

Jim argued that students were
not active enough in political
affairs, and should take advant-
age of their power as a lobby
group.

He produced evidence that the
National Student Association is
now enlarging its library of ma-
terial on student governme nt,
and reminded listeners of the
special travel rates and other
benefits to be received with

membership in the organiza-
tion.

Agnes Scott is the only pre-
dominantly white southern
school still a member of NSA.

During Spring Quarter the
student body may be asked to
vote on whether or not to re-
main a member of NSA. Stu-
dent government President
Debbie Rosen encourages all
students to bear this in mind
and to keep in contact with the
facts and issues of NSA.

NO COMPARISON

"It's a wonderful idea but I'm not going within 50 feet of the
place I" is a typical comment of many students about the Red
Cross blood drive. Many of these girls are simply frightened;
others who have already signed up also have misapprehensions.

The giving process is easy. As explained by a spokesman for
Dr. Grcenberg, the donor's pulse, temperature and blood pres-
sure are taken, and, if acceptable, her finger is pricked (this
is the most painful part) and her blood examined to see if she
is anemic.

If she passes all these requirements, she lies down on a
Red Cross cot, a needle is inserted in the arm vein and the
transference starts.

Seven and one-half minutes is all it takes to remove one pint
blood, leaving 8-10 pints in the body, ample for any need. This
pint is replaced by the body within 24 hours.

Physical after effects are negligible; men from the General
Motors assembly line give blood and return to the line immediately,
working at full speed. Any reaction will occur within 5-6 minutes,
and a medical doctor and several RN's will be on duty at all
times. There should be no noticable weakness.

The Red Cross needs 300 pts. of blood per day just to serve
Atlanta and the 40 surrounding counties.

The war in Vietnam has increased the need for blood deri-
vatives, especially gamma globulin, to help fight the tropical
diseases such as malaria which live in the blood.

Anyone who wishes to may designate her blood for this pur-
pose.

The PROFILE realizes that some people get physically ill
at the sight or thought of blood. This editorial isn't aimed
at such people, although we feel this reaction isn't too practi-
cal for daily living.

But there is a chance for all us preachers, especially the
AVN preachers, to get out and practice a little.

There is no room for comparison between the momentary
pain of a finger prick and the death of a human being.

Elections

This is the time of year when everyone, especially freshmen
who haven't been exposed before, is tearing her hair over elec-
tion procedure.

We're tearing with the best of them, but would like to inject a
note of hope. Yes, elections are a rangle. We know it and Rep
Council knows it, but no one seems to have the answer right now.

For the present, bear with it. In the end, everything does work
out, and surprisingly well. This erratic system does produce a
fair method of election, and the best people have the best chance
of being chosen for the positions. The excellent ends usually
justify the messy means.

MOCKINGS
FROM
RAMONA

Dear Mom,

I finally got out of the Infir-
mary, but the last days of my
stay were not without their ex-
citing moments. First, Robin
came to see me Monday night.
Since boys are allowed only on
weekends, he dressed as a min-
ister.

Things got a little tense when
a real minister showed up. He
and Robin got into a theological
debate, but it all came out all
rights The nurse was so im-
pressed she's going to hear
Robin preach Sunday.

At last, the doctor thought she
had pinpointed my disease a
rare cattle malady of northwes-
tern Kenya. She called an am-
bulance but it couldn't get to
the Infirmary until they had
moved the 19 cars blocking the
drive by Winship. You can bet
I'm going on a Park-in-the-
p roper-place campaign when I
get out.

Anyway, then they found my
high fever, the main symptom
of my rare disease , was a re-
sult of an over-warm heating
pad.

By that time, they had the re-
sults of my blood test, showing
I had had a slight case of mono.
I was allowed to leave Wed-
nesday, .on the condition I take
it easy.

The next problem was mov-
ing back to the dorm. I had 9
stuffed animals, two radios, my
stereo, 23 Johnny Mathis al-
bums, four flower arrange-
ments, and two stacks of maga-
zines. Somehow the lab manual
I had been studying got lost in
the shuffle.

On my seventeenth trip, Lin-
da Lou Colvard rushed out of
Gaines and offered to help. She
and Frances VVadsworth helped
me into a car, shouting some-
thing about needing a third to
ride to the airport. I was too
weak to resist, and before I
was really alert we were on the
freeway.

We did travel in style - Fran-
ces' Aunt Becca's Model T.
They borrowed it so Linda Lou
could drive out to see Bob on a
40-minute wait between planes.
I never found out whether Bob
was her uncle or cousin, but I
was glad to help out.

Well, after that adventure, on
top of a frustrating week in the
Infirmary, I was ready to un-
supress a few desires today.
First I started a fire in the
Reading Room fireplace. It
was quite nice until I remem-
bered that rule from my Girl

Scout days always open the

flue first.

Then I commandeered the
Buttrick elevator and didn't let
any faculty members ride. That
was great until I got stuck and
forced to call for help.

At last I found the way to re-
lease all my tensions in the tra-
ditional way kissing the pro-
fessor. Mr. Tumblin was most
cooperative.

Then I went after Dr. Hayes,
but the line to his office was
backed up to Dana and I just
didn't have time to wait.

The real highlight came when
I pounced on Mr. Brown. He
tried to get away, but my self-
defense course tactics paid off
and won me the prize for the
day.

After all that I'm a bit tired.
Give Butch my love.

Love,
Ramona

Reader Proud Of
Student Affirmation

Dear Editor:

Having read with interest and
pride the Affirmation on the part
of many Agnes Scott students
of the government's policy in
Vietnam, and "Outside" Affir-
mation of their Affirmation
seems to be in order.

In experiencing the feeling of
reclusion from the events of the
outside world which so fre-
quently occurs when one be-
comes predominantly involved
with academics, one can realize
and, thus, applaud the efforts
of those students who have suc-
cessfully made an attempt to
take part in current affairs.

Also, besides being a heart-
ening sign of the students' a-
wareness of happenings outside
the college community, Agnes
Scott's participation in "Affir-
mation: Vietnam" gives encou-
ragement to those of us more
intimately involved.

Being human we all gain con-
fidence from knowing that
others approve of our actions
and when emotions could distort
the true objectives of the war,
making many wonder about the
Tightness of their sacrifices, it
is extrtmely important that
those who approve speak out.

As one sees neighbors on all
sides leaving an army base, the
wife going home to her parents
and the husband to Vietnam, and
as one realizes that the possi-
bility of one's own husband's
going is becoming increasingly
a probability, the war becomes
a reality.

Under these conditions it is
good to hear that all students
(those who are supposed to be,

above all, thinkers) Do not feel,
as those at Berkeley and else
where, that the contribution of
those who are sent to fight is
in vain.

Thus, one feels gratitude for
those who openly Affirm our go-
government's policy in Vietnam
both for the indication of their
concern and for the necessary
moral support which their con-
cern provides.

Eliot Has Vision To See
Beauty Beneath Ugliness

by Portia Morrison

T. S 0 Eliot once said that "...the essential
advantage for a poet is not to have a beautiful
world with which to deal: it is to be able to
see beneath both beauty and ugliness; to see
the boredom and the horror, and the glory."

This statement is an expression of just the
sort of poetic vision that Eliot himself pos-
sessed, the sort of vision that gives his poetry
an appeal and an influence that is perhaps
wider than that of any other poet in the world
of contemporary literature.

One of the most difficult and certainly the
most important tasks for the scudent of Eliot's
poetry is that of reconciling the fact of his
distinct Christianity with the knowledge of the
peculiar appeal that his poetry has had for
the members of a civilization in which tradi-
tional Christianity has been largely discard-
ed as irrelevant to the problems of the age.

However, if an examination is made of the
poetic method through which Eliot works, the
task does not seem so difficult.

For Eliot was not always a Christian; his
conversion to Anglo-Catholicism came after
many years of writing about "the boredom
and the horror," and his vision of "the
glory" was achieved only after a very slow
and painful process of intellectual and spirit-
ual searching.

Man And Poet

For Eliot, both as a man and as a poet, the
old symbols for central human experience had
become obscured and distorted so that they
were no longer able to perform their func-
tion in infusing the life of man with trans-
cendent meaning.

Thus it seemed to him that the task of the
poet had become, in the words of Cleanth
Brooks, "not only to find new symbols for
the central experiences but to reconstitute the
old symbols, reclaiming them, redeeming
them, setting them in contexts which will

force us once again to confront their Chris-
tian meanings."

My independent study paper was conceived
as an attempt to trace Eliot's religious jour-
ney throughout the whole range of his poetry,
dealing with particular care with the poems or
passages of poems that embody the attitude of
the poet at the most noteworthy stages in his
quest.

I have chosen the journey metaphor, which
Eliot uses consistently in his poerty, as a
focus for the paper, for the concept of the
journey, or quest, forms the framework and
the direction for all of Eliot's most significant
poetic endeavors.

Through a study of the use of the imagery
of the journey in Eliot's poetry it is possible
to gain a sense both of the nature of his own
personal religious quest and of the way in
which that quest has been conducted.

For Eliot has based his poetry in the de-
spair and the futility that infuse contem-
porary civilization and out of that sense of
meaninglessness has discovered, through a
process of spiritual searching, a source of
renewal and of purpose that is able to trans-
form human existence.

Honesty

His poetry appeals to contemporary man
primarily because of the fairness and honesty
with which his journey has been conducted.
He does not ask either of himself or of his
reader that any traditional values be posited;
rather, he begins with the assumption merely
that life as it is lived in the world of today
is empty and meaningless, and he proceeds
from that point to rebuild and revitalize the
symbols that generate meaning and purpose
in human life and bring about rebirth in the
beauty and fullness that is achieved when one
is able to order his life around "the still
point of the turning world" and to "move
in measure, like a dancer."

Student Leaders
Discuss Activism

"Student Activism" was the
topic discussed by a panel of
four nationally known political
figures for 250 students from
the Atlanta area March 17 at
Emory University.

About 12 Scott girls attended
the discussion.

On the panel were Dr. Shac-
ko, the youngest Peace Crops
director in the nation;"Bubba"
Sutton, head of the "Affirma-
tion: Vietnam" movement; Tom
Houston, president of the Young
Americans for Freedom; and
Julian Bond, ex-representative
elect to the Georgia State Se-
nate.

The discussion began with
each panel member's defining
activism as it applied to his
realm of activity.

Though their approaches to
and programs for student in-
volvement were all different,
the panel saw the need to take
students out of their apathy
through this activism.

Questions were asked of each

panel member by the reporters
present, interested students,
and the other members of the
panel >

One Scott girl who was pre-
sent noted that panel members
directed most of their ques-
tions to Julian Bond, while ques-
tions from the floor went most-
ly to Bubba Sutton and Tom
Houston.

Sarah Uzzell felt the most in-
teresting questions raised were
directed to Julian Bond; "Can
acitvism be justified when it
demands taking the law into your
own hands?" and "Had you
(Bond) planned your recent con-
troversial actions for a long
time, expecting the publicity you
would receive?'*

While the public discussion
was impressively calm, Sarah
disclosed that tempers flared
and real arguments shaped up
after the discussion when pa-
nelists talked individually with
acitve soirients.

Seniors, Sophs Stay
First In Basketball

by Ann Teat

Few spectators were in the,
gym last Friday to see two fast
and furious basketball games.

The seniors and the sopho-
mores managed to win the vic-
tories each needed to maintain
the top position tie in the bas-
ketball tournament.

The junior class, who were
obliged to play with only five
players, played a better game
than the score of 49-17 would
indicate. Mary Helen Goodloe
and Day Morcock were the most
outstanding juniors.

Alice Davidson led the scor-
ing with 17 points. A strong de-
fense led by Judy Ahrano was
one of the main factors in gain-
ing the victory.

Bonnie Creech revealed ac-
curate scoring ability by chalk-
ing up 14 points.

In the second game, the so-
phomores led from the opening
whistle. Their lead was chal-
lenged once by a freshman third
quarter rally; however, the so-
phs kept their number one slot
by a 33-25 victory.

Kat Mitchell played well of-
fensively (8 points) and defen-
sively by demonstrating good
rebounding. Elizabeth Cooper
was high scorer with 15 points.

Freshman Pat Auclair was
outstanding defensively as was
Wendy Lundy offensively. Lee-
Cooper was high scoring fresh-
man with 8 points.

Tomorrow will see the fresh-
men against the seniors, juniors
against sophomores for the last
game of the season.

Julliard
Quartet

Aesthetic

"An excellent performance of
excellent music," commented
Richard Hensel, after the per-
formance of the Julliard String
Quartet, February 14.

"In performing Hayden and
Beethoven," he continued,
"they achieved a sensitive bal-
ance between stylistically au-
thentic playing and the kind of
playing that results from con-
temporary license to improve
upon performance norms pe-
culiar to traditional styles/'

The music by Bartok gave the
audience the opportunity to hear
an example of "problematical
contemporary work," accord-
ing to Dr. Hensel.

Though Dr. Hensel does not
feel that the Fj_fttl is Bartok 's
best quartet, its presentation
demonstrated the ability of the
Julliard group to recreate Bar-
tok, "giving the Quartet new
meaning in this present time."

A survey of Bartok shows that
he was concerned with the twen-
tieth-century conflict of tonali-
ty versus atonality.

"In tins work (the Fifth) he
tried to resolve the conflict by
modulating melodic cells rath-
er than key centers. This re-
sults in a kind of atonal tonali-
ty, if there can be such a
thing," commented Dr. Hensel.

''In general," summerized
Dr. Hensel," the eveing pro-
vided an aesthetic experience
which has left me recreating
this experience in an attempt to
possess it."

"Der Urfaust 9 ' Production
Thrills Students, Visitors

Scotties were overcome, vis-

performance of "Der Urfaust."

Croswell
Competes
For Scott

by Sonja Nelson

Social Council is placing a
Scottie in GLAMOUR'S Best-
Dressed College Girl Contest
for the second consecutive year u
The girl must be selected by
the campus community and is
judged by the magazine on the
basis of photographs.

The ten winners go to New
York during the summer as
guests of the magazine. They
are photographed extensively
for a special fall issue,,

Ellen Croswell, a sophomore
from Ohio, was chosen as
Scott's '66 entrant. A local
fashion photographer has been
engaged by Social Council to
photograph Ellen for the con-
test.

The girls selected by the
magazine are treated to a round
of parties in their honor in New
York. Although the girls seldom
work on the magazine itself,
the social life is exciting.

The contest also is an excel-
lent source of publicity for the
schools involved.

Perhaps the most interesting
facet of the contest is the type
of girl often selected. Pictures
entered of contestants range
from shots of the girl smoking
a pipe to riding a motorcycle
or arriving at the opera.

The magazine also relies
heavily on the girl's background
and wide range of activities in
its selection. The decision is
usually based on originality of
dress and unusual personality
traits.

Social Council hopes that the
campus will show continued in-
terest in the contest and contri-
bute ideas for enlivening the
format of the entry.

by Justice Waldrop

"It pleased me here and
here", said a visitor in broken
English, touching her ears and
heart. 'To hear Goethe, to
hear it so beautifully ..ah,
it's been so long."

It is difficult to find even an
area for criticism. Frankly,
many students had not expected
such dramatic skill from a play
handled by the German Depart-
ment ratherthanadrama group 0
But director Erika Shiver had
directed the play three times
previously, and this, plus the
experience of the main actors
probably contributed to the pro-
fessional quality of the produc-
tion.

The rich, deep voice of Sam
Shiver, who played Faust, cap-
tivated the audience immediate-
ly. It contrasted sharply with
the sly, spirited, coniving
speeches by Mephistopheles,
played by Hermann Flaschka.

Gretehen

Blair-Louise Major's por-
trayal of Gretehen was probably
the most effective performance.
Certainly it was the most mov-
ing. Though at times barely
audible, she developed in inten-
sity as the role developed and
her final scene is truly a high-
light of the performance.

Flaschka's interpretation of
the devil was spirited. He hand-
led several scenes especially
skillfully. His cunning answers
to the eager student and his ris-
que lines urging Faust to allow
him a week to procure Gret-
chen's affection were comical-
ly effective.

Although the prison scene
was superbly acted, generally
Gretehen and Faust performed
better when not together on the
stage. Faust as the man cfdeep
feeling seemed more at home
talking to Mephistopheles of
his desire than when conver-
sing with Gretehen.

But the garden scene itself,

with its circular turn-taking
conversations first one cou-
ple, then another is a good
example of the episodic quality
of the play which is an unfin-
ished, early version.

High-Schoolish

This leads to the production
problems themselves which de-
serve special attention because
they were overcome on the
whole by remarkable direction.
Since this is an early version,
the scenes were more like brief
flashes than unified parts of a
whole.

Director Shiver attempted to
unify them by moving rapidly
from one to another, not break-
ing the mood, and succeeded.

Fortunately, Wagner's role
was minor, for much of his
speech was garbled and difficult
for the non-natives to follow.
Laura Boddiford, as the student
was a bit high-schoolish and
gullible, though it was hard for
me to discern if this was a
weakness in the script or her
acting.

Sham- Widow

Gail Livingston rendered
the role of a fickle, coniving,
sham-widow with an excellent
sense of comic timing, and sav-
ed several scenes from drab-
ness that resulted from Gret-
chen's overly weak soliloquies.

Susan Bergeron must have
known some gossipy women,
she portrayed one so well.

And the crowd, too, should be
commended. They praised the
performance, in German, all
the way out of Dana.

tended the conference. These
students were from 32 schools
in 13 states.

"Victors or Victims in a
Tangled World?" was the theme
of this year's conference.

The thoughts of modern theo-
logy, "God is dead", played
a part in the first meeting, but
there were six major areas
which were specifically dis-
cussed.

They were mass communica-
tion, student's relationship to
foreign policy, civil rights, new
campus honesty, cybernetics
and automation, and the role of
women in society today.

The conference made resolu-
tions on each topic. These
resolutions were sent back to
each local chapter.

Mary and Judy voted on and
approved each of the resolu-
tions, which will be posted in the
mail room next week.

President of Christian As-
sociation, Mary Brown, said,
"The importance of Agnes
Scott's being an affiliate mem-
ber of the Y.W. C.A. was shown
in the conference by the fact
that the problems discussed in-
clude and transcend the im-
mediate problems of our cam-

derstand more fully the pro-
blems of our age.

Shell Gratit Goes For
Faculty Fund, Equipment

The Shell Oil Company a-
warded Agnes Scott College a
$1500 Grant. This is the four-
th annual grant the Shell Com-
pany has made to the college,
and it has been made in the same
way each time.

Lach year the Shell Oil Com-
pany stipulates that the money
be divided into three $500 por-
tions.

$500 is to be used at the' dis-
cretion of the president of the
college. In the past Dr. Alston
has either dispensed this money
for use in current expenditures
or in capital funds.

The dean of the faculty is
in charge of using one $500
portion of the Shell grant. Dean
Kline always places this money
in the summer study and re-
search fund for the faculty.

This fund helps pay faculty
members' expenses when they
do special travel for study pur-
poses in the summer. It aids
them with such expenses as
summer school tuition and work
leading to the Ph.D. degree.

The chairman of the math-
matics department has at his
discretion the use of $500
of the Shell grant. This por-

tion is to be used for special
expenditures for which Che col-
lege does not budget mone-y.

In the past, Mr. Kobinsonhas
used this money to buy such
items as a desk calculator, a
mathmatics typewriter, and a
full sequence of mathmatics
journals.

Gaskell Announces McCain Lectures

Scolt (tills
Aid Alston

Would you believe President
Johnson stalled on South Cand-
ler? Would you believe Presi-
dent Alston stalled on South
Candler?

Two amateur Scottie sle uths
called the Decatur Police Sta-
tion Wednesday night to re-port
a wreck in front of Sturgis
Cottage. Lxcept it wasn't a
wreck.

People riding down Candler
at about 9 p.m. were probably
surprised to see two girls and
a man pushing a large Buick
back and forth across the stre e t.

Failing in an attempt to re-
move the ve hide from the tho-
roughfare, the young ladies con-
tented themselves with consol-
ing Dr. Alston, who was the most
calm of those present.

A program of annual lectures, bringing to the Agnes Scott
campus outstanding spokesmen in the fields of the liberal arts
and sciences, will be established in memory of James Ross Mc-
Cain, the late president emeritus of the college, it was announced
in convocation yesterday.

Jan Gaskell, president of Mortar Board and chairman of the
student-faculty-administration steering committee for the me-
morial, told members of the student body and faculty that 'The
lectures will have significance not only for the college community,
but also for the larger community, the friends of Dr. McCain and
of Agnes Scott.

"Such lectures are in keeping with the educational purposes
and aims of the college and will stimulate an interest in affairs
beyond this campus," she said.

"Members of the

The lectures are

leadership in both

to keep Dr. McCain's presence alive," she

to deal with "some aspect of the liberal arts

they will reflect Dr. McCain's interest and
the educational and religious communities.

Students, faculty, administration, alumnae and friends are ex-
pected tocontribute the funds for the lectureship. An eventual
goal for the program is $50,000, a principle which will not only
assure outstanding speakers, but will also provide for publish-
ing James Ross McCain lectures.

At least $25,000 is required for the activation of the lecture-
ship. The committee hopes that this amount will be donated this
spring.

Students will be contacted and given an opportunity to con-
tribute during the first week of spring quarter. They are asked
to discuss the amount of their gifts with their parents over spring
vacation*

The steering committee for the memorial was established last
quarter by Representative Council at the request of numerous
students.

Committee members include Dr. Wallace M. Alston, presi-
dent of the college; Dean of the faculty C. Benton Kline, Jr.;
Miss Carrie Scandrett, dean of students; Dr. VV. Ldward Mc-
Nair, director of public relations and development; Miss Ann
Worthy Johnson, director of alumnae affairs,; Miss Llewellyn
Wilburn, the faculty's representative; and students Mary Brown,
Betsy Anderson, Jane McCu.rdy, Mary Lamar and Mary Chap-
man.

Sunday Agnes Scott's College Bowl team will appear on tele-
vision. Various activities have been planned by groups on cam-
pus before we send the team off. Included in these are a doughnut
sale and party for the team in the Hub tonight. Hair-do appoint-
ments have been made for the team at Mike and Eva's by So-
cial Council on Friday, Finally, a motorcade leaving Main at
2:15 p.m. Friday will send the team off.

We commend the people in charge of these activities and urge
the campus to support them. And while we realize that the

Want Letters
From Seott

Dear Editor,

We are three American
soldiers serving our country in
Viet Nam. The reason we are
writing is that we are almost
completly out of touch with the
American public.

The second reason is that we
would like to know what is hap-
pening in the U.S., but above
all we just want mail from in-
telligent young ladies.

We are all members of the
Army's Strategic Communica-
tions Commands, stationed in
Phu Lam, Viet Nam, working
in the field of our choice, name-
ly electronics.

We are trying to do our share
for the people of South Viet Nam.

We are writing to a few
colleges, hoping that we will get
a reply from someone.

Thank you for your time and
thoughtfulness, and we would
also like to say that we will
appreciate all letters sent to
us.

Night Life

in the "We Recommend" department,
Manuel's and Ruby Red's Warehouse come at
the top of the list. Both these places have so
much atmosphere that I can recommend them
for minors as well as for those who can "go
ahead and taste it."

Manuel's is a real old fashioned tavern,
located at North Avenue and Highland. The
two main attractions of the place are the au-
thentic neighborhood-pub- type motif and
Manuel himself, a burly old Lebanese who is
also quite a self-styled philosopher. Many
of the habitues are Emory and Tech people,
and the hotdogs are divine.

Ruby Red's Warehouse is a new club which
opened about three weeks ago. It is located
at 57 Ellis Street, near the Marriott. Ruby's
is a real warehouse, and features prime
beef hamburgers and Roaring Twenties music
played by a banjo, tuba, and piano trio. The

motif is more "Late Speakeasy" than any-
thing else. The music is great, and Ruby's
is one of the few places where people really
do sing along. The crowds are large every
night, so plan to be there by 8:30 on weekends
if you want a seat. Music starts at 9 p.m.

I don't think there are a lot of legitimate
complaints about the dining hall situation, but
one complaint that IS sound is die tact tnat
those who don't break Into a snappy sprint
after their 12:10 classes are likely to find
that the late lunch bill of fare is bread
and cauliflower dregs. More than once
those who arrive at 1:20 have found that
there is literally nothing to eat. And no
matter how much we complain about the food,
we still insist that it exist.

Sophomores

A word of advice to sophomores. Don't
wait until next quarter to start planning your
major courses. Course selection week is one
of the most crucial times in your academic
career, and it deserves your deliberate and
ob jective consideration over spring vacation.

It is important that you be completely rea-
listic about your courses. Don't always base
your course choices on the description in the
catalogue. Talk to upperclassmen who have
had the course in question, and see what it
is really like. Don't be lured by high-sound-
ing courses that don't deal with what you
want them to deal. On the other hand, a course
with a deceptively simple title could prove
to be a scholastic pitfall.

'Patch Of Blue"
Brutal, Tender

by Ann Roberts

The weak should not see "A
Patch of Blue." It is an ex-
haustive alternation of extraor
dinary brutality and extraor-
dinary tenderness. But it is
worth every emotion-draining
moment.

Elizabeth Hartwell plays
beautifully the completely in-
nocent blind girl who, in her
eighteenth year, goes for the
first time beyond her one-room
hell into the park.

Shelley Winters is her almost
unreal bitch of a mother who,
although responsible for the
girl's blindness, feels her dau-
ghter should be her slave.

Wonderful Sidney Poitier is
the kind young man the girl
meets in the park.

Their relationship is a thing
of beauty full of help, under-
standing, and joy. Her color-

less love for him grows and he
feels very strongly for her.
But he, and the audience, are
always haunted by reality and
the restraint he must show in
the light of it, all made more
painful for her child-like open-
ness.

The movie is without senti-
ment or politics, but it is far
more than a simple love story.
For an enjoyable and moving
experience, see 'A Patch of
Blue."

Beloit Tries
Five Year
Curriculum

Beloit, Wis.-(I.P.)-A four
point program to lessen college
student pressures-including the
chance to stretch the study for
a degree over 5 years for the
price of 4-has been advanced by
Or. William L. Kolb, dean of
Beloit College.

"There is nothing sacred
about taking 4 years for a de-
gree," Dean Kolb stated here
recently. "While some students
may take less, some may re-
quire more because they can do
good work with fewer courses.
Total tuition paid to work for
the degree might remain the
same for up to 5 years work.

1. Adopt a system of grading
in which the grade point average
need not count all the failures,
reducing the fear of low gra-
des and dimissal in the early
years of college.

"This system could be com-
bined with a requirement that
all courses to be counted to-
ward a degree be at the satis-
factory C level, or combined
with a requirement of a high
er grade average in the major
field", Dean Kolb explained.

2. Educate parents to be rea-
listic about their children.
There are many good schools
available, and not all the stu-
dents in these schools will re-
ceive A's; a moderate perfor-
mance in these schools may still
be related to later occupational
success and satisfaction.

3. When possible have the
faculty separate essential work
from knowledge that may be-
come obsolete in a few years.

"Under the Beloit Plan of
year - around education two
steps have already been taken
to help reduce pressure," Dean
Kolb said. "Students take only
four courses a term instead of
five, and in a flexible Middle-
class period, each student may
arrange two vacation terms and
an off-campus field term in
many different combinations
with two academic credit terms.

"This makes it possible for
him to take time off from aca-
demic work in a manner better
fitted to his individual need. As
one example, he may take as
much as a full year away from
academic work and still make
normal progress towards his
d'-gree," Dean Kolb added.

Jim Johnson, National Affairs
Vice-President of the National
Student Association, (NSA),
spoke for Scott students March
17.

He covered many issues not
included in the article on his
discussion which appeared in
the February 24 issue of the

Jim talked briefly about the
history of NSA. (Agnes Scott
was a charter member.) It was
founded in 1947, declaring to be
interested in better education
and more effective student in-
volvement.

He discussed the period of
NSA's intense political acti-
vity, and the change its chief
emphasis to the problems of
campus government,
campus government in 1959. He
then outlined services now of-
fered member schools.

In Washington, the NSA main-
tains a Student Government In-
formation Service and Library.
On file there are activity re-
ports from member schools.

A student body faced with a
specific problem can request
any helpful information from
these files. Jim estimated that
1200 such requests were hand-
led last year,

Jim described NSA's print-
ing services. Over 100 publica-
tions have been printed by the
organization for use by stu-
dent governments. Regular
newsletters are also sent to
member schools.

NSA maintains five staff spe-
cialists who can be sent to any
school needing their advice or
evaluation.

NSA will soon be able to serve

dicted. Plans for a discount

Sets Senior Recital

Patti Clark Owens, an Agnes
Scott music major, will give
her senior recital this week.
It will be held in Gaines Audi-
torium Sunday, March 6, at
3:15 p.m.

Works from the romantic pe-
riod begin and end the pro-
gram. First is "Piece Heroi-
que" by Franck, and Part I of
Widor's "Fifth Symphony" is
last. Two pieces by Bach are
also on Mrs. Owens' program.

They are "Nun freut euch, lie-
ben Christen mein" ("Rejoice,
Beloved Christians') and"Pas-
sacaglia and Fugue in C Minor".

Completing the program are
two modern works, "Apparition
de 1 'Eglise Eternelle" by Mes-
siaen, and "Macht hoch die Tur,
die Tur macht weit" by Pepping.

Mrs. Owens is President of
Organ Guild and S.A.I, at Agnes
Scott. She is a pupil of Dr.
Raymond Martin.

the American Council on Edu-
cation.

It is a non-partisan organi-
zation and any school which
uses its membership to be-
come partisan can be expell-
ed.

Jim then answered questions.
To the charge that NSA was
mainly a lobbying force, he said
that as a tax exempt body, law
requires that "no substantial
portion of time (10%) be spent
in lobbying, "so NSA could be-
come no lobby power.

Jim explained that recom-
mendations are sent to Con-
gress, but any dissenting mi-
nority opinions always accom-
pany policy statements.

NSA policy is formulated at
the National conference held
dring the summer. 15-20
speeches a day are heard by
delegates, and some 25 semi-
nars cover national and inter-
national politics, evaluate the
educational system and discuss
problems of student govern-
ment.

Linda Lou Colvard and Deb-
bie Rosen, Scott's delegates to
the conference last summer,
agreed that the major issue was
educational reform, and noted
that only five of the seminars
dealt with international affairs.

Linda Lou said she felt that
though Scott's vote was not so
powerful as that of some other
member southern schools, such
as the University of North Ca-
rolina, membership was inva-
luable.

Scott's membership in all
national student organizations
will be examined by Rep Coun-
cil in the spring, said Debbie
Rosen, President of the Stu-
dent Body.

Five Attend Annual
Philosophy Meeting

A delegation of five philoso-

13th Annual Undergraduate Phi-
losophy Conference Saturday,
February 26.

University of Chattanooga
hosted the gathering which was
also attended by students from
Vanderbilt, Scwanee, the Uni-
versity of Georgia, and Lmory.

The theme for the conference
was "Philosophy of Religion."
The Scott paper on "White-
head's Conception of God" was
a joint effort, but it was pri-
marily the work of Judy Broad-
way who presented it at the
meeting.

Judy commented, "I think it

was the most thrilling and
worthwhile thing I've ever
done!"

She also reported that her en-
thusiasm was shared by the
other Scott delegates, Carol
Ann Denton, IJubbie Rosen, Lynn
Wilkins, and Judy Williams.

Next year's conference on the
topic "Social Philosophy" is
likely to be held on the Scott
campus.

Judy Broadway's parting shot
was this exuberant' exclamation
about some of the young male-
philosophers they met: "It's

Management

With winter quarter nearly
over, Scotties have been mak-
ing summer plans. Friday night,
February 18, six girls went over
to Georgia Tech to audition for
jobs in the summer revue of
Six Flags Over Texas, a large
Dallas amusement park.

Three sophomores, Louise
Fortson, Anne Field and Candy
Walden and three freshmen,
Sara Boyd, Dee Brannen and
Marsha Williams tried out for
jobs.

Louise Fortson and Anne
Field sang and danced to "I
Won't Grow Up" from Peter
Pan. They wore green costumes
borrowed from members of the
junior class.

Candy Walden danced to three
songs from South La cifjp. These
girls were aided in their musi-
cal arrangements and coreo-
graphy by Linda Marks and
Miss Molly Dotson.

Dee Brannen sang "Frankie
and Johnny" alone and was join-
ed afterward by Sara Boyd.
Together they sang "Winken,
Blinken, andNod." Marsha Wil-
liams played "Gitanerias" by
Ernesto Leceuana on the piano
and then changed her mood to
sing "Swing on the Bell, Nellie"

while accompanying herself on
her banjo-ukelele.

On May 1, a re-audition will
be held in Dallas. Out of all
the applicants, 75 will be se-
lected and flown to Dallas by
Six Flags. 25 of these will be
asked to report for work May
28.

In Atlanta

Six Flags Over Texas is es-
pecially interested in hiring ten
people from this immediate
area. In the summer of 1967
a new amusement park like
the Dallas one will open in At-
lanta. Lxperienced people will
be needed to staff it.

In speaking of the auditions,
Marsha Williams mentioned the
high quality of talent displayed
by the college students. She al-
so said, "I was impressed by
how nice the people (the repre-
sentatives of Six Flags) looked
and were."

Louise Fortson hadthis com-
ment about the experience: "It
was just a lot of fun and we
didn't have anything else to do."

Writer Attacks "Dixie,
Draws Strong Protest

55

RALEIGH, N.C. "I may
have bitten off more than I
can chew," Bob Holmes, the
editor of the North Carolina
State Technician, says several
days and several demonstra-
tions after he wrote an editorial
condeming the song "Dixie."

"I never expected it to es-
calate to the scale it has," he
said. "We were just trying
to provoke some discussion
among the students here, but
its gotten out of hand."

The editorial had no argu-
ment with the song, only to
the reaction to the music. The
editorial added "it appears that
all a group has to do is strike
'up a few notes of that tune and
. . .people automatically shout
frantically, and stand up and
sing. 'Dixie" represents all
of those things the South would
should be attempting to lay
aside. 'Dixie' gives unrecon-
structed Southerners something
of the past ot cheer and there
certainly is little in the past of
the South about which anyone
should wish to cheer."

The morning after the edi-
torial appeared, a big banner
reading "Dixie Forever" ap-
peared on a smokestack on the
campus. Students rose at break-
fast in the cafeteria to sing
"Dixie."

SOPHOMORE "WENCH" MARY ROGERS lights the candles on
her table for the Tom Jones dinner presented Friday night; the
evening was completed by such touches as "wine," costumed
waitresses, napkins tucked in at the neck, and an uproarious
Upton Inn skit.

That night some 600 students
gathered between two dormi-
tories and began singing the
song. Half of them moved on to
the newspaper office after a
student counsellor confiscated a
bull horn and told the demon-
strators to move on.

They gathered outside the of-
fice and shouted for the edi-
tors to appear. They even bur-
ned copies of the paper on the
doorstep.

The crowd grew and then
marched to the state capitol,
only blocks away, singing "Di-
xie" all the while. Marches
on the capitol are a traditional
form of protest on the Raleigh
am pus.

During the march to the capi-
tol, one Confederate flag-wav-
ing student announced that the
editorial had "disgraced" the
state. The state takes particu-
lar pride in its motto, he said,
which is "First at Bethal, far-
thest at Gettysburg, last at
Appomattox."

Holmes, a native of Raleigh,
said, "We've had a lot of let-
ters, about two-thirds of them
against us. The phone hasn't
quit ringing, and some of the
profanity and threats we're get-
ting would put a sailor to
shame."

The following responses to
the question "What is your
opinion of the Red Cross Blood
Drive sponsored by Athletic As-
sociation?" were obtained after
the hall discussions of the blood
drive February 17 by members
of the A. A. board:

Elaine Harper: "I'm for it.
It's not only for Agnes Scott.
On the overall, my giving is
a small move towards fulfilling
a larger need."

Jean Jarrett: "I think it's
good to do it under the rea-
sons that A. A. has stated. It
shows we have interest in other
things than our campus."

Ann Roberts: "I think the
blood drive in general a good
idea-especially good to involve
college students because they
are a large group in the country
but they seldom provide their
quota."

Heather Roberts: "It is really
a pitiful attempt at charity. With
so much suffering in the world
this is a small thing to do.'"

Cupie Pulignano: "It gives the
students a chance to give of
themselves, to do something for
other people. I'm glad that I
have an opportunity to do it."

Susan Thomas: "It's a chance
to give and you can't lose any-
thing by it."

Claire Allen: "It's a good
project - an unusual project-
something most people wouldn't
do unless the opportunity were
provided."

Prentice Fridy: "I think it's
really fine. It takes us out of
our own world and makes us
think of something bigger."

Joy Griffin: "I am in favor
of the way the blood drive is
being handled. I would object
to its being run as a campaign."

Poppy Wilson: 'The blood
drive is really worth while for
people to do something definite.

Fine words don't count only

thing that means anything is
actually giving blood."

Dear Mom,

You know how you've always
complained about my table man-
ners. Well, they were in place
at last at the Tom Jones din-
ner. It was really terrific. All
Junior Jaunt was great. I have
a new idol Bat Agnes. I'm
starting a fan club.

The neatest thing happened.
I was so thrilled to receive a
form about computer dating.
I think that's a really cool
idea. I sent in five different
forms, each giving me a dif-
ferent personality. I figured
I was bound to come up with
something. I did. Would you
believe Al Pope? Irony of iro-
nies. I also got one date with
a girl on my hall and another
with the computer.

There were a few neat people
in the group. One junior execu-
tive of an advertising agency.
One garbage man. We had a
lovely date in his garbage truck.

I met one really sharp guy
who has just been drafted. (May-
be he enlisted after meeting
me). I'll have someone to write
to at least. Actually I was ra-
ther disappointed. I guess Mr.
Brown didn't send a form.

A funny thing happened on the
way to the Hub. I met Virginia
Russell who had just turned
in her Tog? Jones, and Jesus
papers. She had just realized
she got a little confused. She
wrote on the miracles of Tom
Jones and English country life
in the gospel. She drowned her
sorrow in a Hub crap game for
the rest of the day.

I want to ask you a big fa-
vor, Mom. You may think my
ideas for Spring Vacation sound
a- bit far-fetched, but we have
all the plans made perfectly,
so I know you'll say I can go.
We've made all the reserva-
tions on bus, train, plane, heli-
copter, ferry, dog sled, and
steamboat. We just have to
get a confirmation on the canoe
trip down the Ohio.

We're leaving the minute
exams are over. Then, first to
Daytona since everyone goes
to Florida Spring Vacation.
Then we'll zip up to New York,
on through Canda to Detroit.

One of the party wants to go
to her brother's wedding, so
we'll drop down to San Anto-
nio. I hope to slip into Mexi-
co while we're there.

We'll stay one night in New
Orleans on the way back. And
we'll definitely be back Mon-
day morning in time for clas-
ses. I had planned to hop over
to London to see a friend, but
since one girl has an exam
Saturday, that cuts one day off
the trip. I realize it sounds am-
bitious, Mom, but I know we
can do it.

Tell Butch I hope to see him
as I go through. Love to all,

Ramona

Independent Study

Chemistry Student Explores
Two Nickel-Nicon Complexes

by Kay Broadwater

A new organic compound produced by
Easman Kodak Company named 1,2,3,
cyclohexanetrionetrioxime (nicknamed Ni-
con) has been found by other independent
study students under the direction of Dr.
W.J. Frierson to react with nickel, cobalt,
copper and iron to give highly colored
compounds called complexes, which have
been useful for the colorimetric identifi-
cation of these metals.

Although these new colored compounds have
been used in this way, the formulas and
structures of them have been unknown. Some
work has been done toward determining their
structures, but the evidence obtained has
been insufficient to arrive at anything de-
finite.

For my independent study I have been
working mainly with the Nickel-Nicon com-
plexes. It had previously been found that
two forms of this compound could be iso-
lated one red in color and the other green
the color of the complex obtained depend-
ing simply upon the order in which the two
components were mixed; that is, upon the
relative concentration of each component in
the solution at any given time.

One of the major goals of this project is
to determine the structual difference in the
two forms of this complex or chelate.

Because of extreme difficulty in working
with these two complexes, experimental pro-
cedures are usually long and arduous but
very rewarding when a positive result ap-
pears and it does eventually.

The two compounds are virtually insolu-
ble in any of the common organic solvents

as well as in any other chemical solvent
in which they were examined, with the green
form having a tendency to change into the red
form in the presence of any water or water-
containing compounds.

Since many chemical procedures are
carried out in solution, this is a major dif-
ficulty. The red compound, being not quite
so contrary as die green one and soluble
to a very limited extent in water, has been
fairly well characterized through spectro-
photometric methods, including a determina-
tion of the ratio of the number of moles
of metal iron to the number of moles of or-
ganic reagent.

This week our expectations on this com-
pound were verified within experimental
error when results from a quantitative analy-
sis supported the proposed composition C12
H16N606 Ni for the compound.

The green compound is much more dif-
ficult to interpret. Attempts to determine
absorption data have been complicated thus
far by its extreme insolubility. But the dif-
ference in the infrared spectra, obtained by
using a solid disk as a medium, of the two
forms seem to indicate that I am definitely
dealing with two compounds not just with
different structures of the same compound.

I hope that by further interpretation of
spectral results on both forms, a quanti-
tative analysis of the green form, and com-
parison with theory and known complexes
of both nickel and related complexing rea-
gents to deduce the composition, structure,
and probable bonding mechanism of the
Nickel-Nicon complexes.

"Dear, Mr. Calder

We love you for helping us
learn about stars from your
Blue Bird Valentines-.. ."Nine
signatures are at the bottom of
this valentine made of white
paper and a red, heart-shaped
paper doily.

If it seems incongruous for
the chairman of the Physics
Department to receive and be
proud of such a valentine, you
don't know Dr. Calder.

The Blue Birds is just one of
many groups who appreciate the
monthly "open night" in Brad-
ley Observatory. Sometimes
hundreds of people come for
Dr. Calder' s tour and look out
of the two or three telescopes
at the moon or plantes. "Open
night" is held the second Fri-
day of the month.

Also meeting at Bradley Ob-
servatory monthly, usually the
third Friday of the month, is
The Astronomy Club. The club,
S^anized many years ago, now
has about 200 members.

It's a diversified group rang-
ing from housewives to doctors
and scientists, many of whom
are avid amateur astronomists.
The president of the group is
from Lockheed.

Right now the club has a "hot
line" to N. A. S. A., to report
their findings on a new moon-
beam project. There has been
reported a red coloration on the
moon the nature of which is
not yet understood. Members
of the club are observing from
Bradley with a special instru-
ment on loan from N.A.S.A.

Bradley Observatory itself is
"one of the best collegiate ob-
servatories in the world, for the
purpose of undergraduate

by Justice Waldrop

study," states Dr. Calder.
"Many people ask why have

such a good observatory at a
small woman's college. Why
not?" he asks. As a legiti-
mate area of study, astronomy
warrants proper equipment.
The telescope was purchased
in 1949 and the observatory was
dedicated the following year.

Dr. McCain procured money
for the observatory from va-
rious sources including the
Bradley Foundation. Twenty
thousand dollars was contribut-
ed by the Beck Foundation.

But even before Bradley was
built, students took astronomy.
Back in "the good ole days"
they studied the sky, using Dr.
Calder's own five inch tele-
scope, on the athletic field.
"I miss it, sort of," Dr. Cal-
der reminisced. "We had some
good times."

For students who want to see
the stars "in style," the ob-
servatory is USUallv nrv-n rw<%
nights every week, depending on
the weather. Lights along the'
path are an indication that it
is open.

Morehouse President
Speaks In Convocation

Morehouse President Dr.
Benjamin E. Mays will speak
in convocation Wednesday,
March 9. Dr. Mays holds A.B.
and D.D. degrees from Bates
College, and MA and PH.D.
from U. of Chicago.

He is the author of several
books in the field of religion
and race relations, the latest
being The Christian In Race
Relations.

Dr. Mays, who is listed in
the current edition of "Who's
Who," was a delegate to the
first assembly of the World
Council of Churches.

He has been a member of
the US national commission for
UNESCO, he is on the national
advisory council to the Peace
Corps, and is a member of the
U.S. Advisory Committee for
the UJSJ.

Audiences Participate
In Loud Performance

AUDIENCES, When the house
lights go down on a concert to-
day, reports "Time," The
Weekly Newsmagazine, it is of-
ten the audience that strikes up
the overture. It is a kind of
barnyard symphonette.

// The Hummer and the Time
Beater serve as the rhythm
section.

ff The Cellophane Cr inkier
and the Program Rattler handle
the solos.

// In the percussion section,
the principal performers arc
the Bracelet J angler and the
Premature Clapper.

// Special effects are contri-
buted by the Knuckle Cracker
and the Watch Winder.

'# The Coughers' Chorale is
directed by the Dry-Throated,
Red-Nosed Hacker, whose feeb-
lest lead always gets a resound-
ing antiphonal response.

// The entire performance is
choreographed by Fidgeter,
produced and upstaged by that
notorious team of Latecomer
and Earlyleaver.

ARTISTIC RETALIATION
ff To teach latecomers a les-
son, Stokowski once had his
musicians wander idly off-and-
onstage while playing a Mozart
symphony. Another time he
turned to the audience and con-
ducted the coughers: "All right,
cough!" he commanded. "I
want a rhythmic cough I Make
it louder!"

ff Classical Guitarist Andres
Segovia recently stopped a per-
formance in Chicago, whipped
out an enormous handkerchief,
and honked and wheezed along

with the audience.

// Jascha Heifctz prefers the
withering glare or, if things get
too bad, departure.

// The late Sir Thomas Bee-
cham was even less subtle, once
whirled on the podium and roar-
ed; "Shut up, you fools!"
SUGGESTIONS

// As for the dreaded cello-
phane crinklcr, critics rec-
ommend that mute fruit
something nice and quiet like
bananas should be sold at
intermissions instead of candy.

// Conductor Eugene Orman-
dy, who has been jolted from his
sleep by a radiator whistling off-
key, recently requested that
women check their dangly
bracelets before entering the
concert hall. It would not be so
bad, reports New York Times
Critic Harold Schonberg, if "all
the bracelets weren't different-
ly pitched."

// Schonberg is also bugged
by serious types who lug music
scores to the performance.
They turn their pages in unison
and sound "like a bunch of
locusts going through a wheat-
field."

// To help separate himself
from such extraneous noises,
one Manhattan concertgoer cups
two programs to his ears.

// The audience-participation
show, suggests Metropolitan
Opera Director Rudolf Bing, is
the result of "a general de-
terioration of manners every-
where, spurred by the Beatles
and similar creatures." He
should know. Met audiences
often seem better suited for
Ringo than Rossini.

Experiments With
Self-Admission

It's not unusual to hear of
a student refused admission to
a college because of his past
record. But Franconia College
in New Hampshire is experi-
menting with a new admission
system that's designed to let a
student start "clean."

The basis for the system is
that the student makes the de-
cision for admission himself.

Franconia, a small liberal
arts college, has invited every
third person inquiring about
admission to participate in the
experiment. If he agrees to do
so, the student sends his ad-
missions application to a neu-
tral consultant from Boston or
Brandeis University.

The consultant keeps the ap-
plication completley confiden-
tial and notifies Franconia of-
ficials only if there is an ex-
treme academic or medical
problem.

The student is then invited to
visit the school and to, in a
small way, become involved in
the student life. He lives in the
dormitories, is given ample op-
portunity to talk to students,
and attends classes that in-
terest him.

After this visit, if the stu-
dent feels Franconia is where
he wants to go to college all
he does is inform the school
of his decision. He will auto-
matically be "accepted" on the
basis' of his decision alone if
there is room in the student
body.

During the entire process,
the college does not ask the stu-
dent to give them any informa-
tion about his background, aca-
demic or otherwise, that he
does not want to reveal him-
self.

Robert G. Greenway, direc-
tor of educational research at
the college and designer of the
study, said, "By allowing stu-
dents to come in 'clean' we hope
to try to break the vicious cir-
cle of academic success or
failure which frequently results
when students are judged on the
basis of their past record."

Periodically, during their
stay at Franconia, the students
will be studied and their aca-
demic record will be analyzed
to determine the outcome of the
study.

Dr. Greenway said he hopes
that these students will feel a
higher obligation to learn and
a more candid relationship with
the school than if they had been
admitted in the conventional
way.

Those who might normally
have expected to have been
weighted down by their high
school record can now optimis-
tically look to the next four
years, Greenway said. He said
it is debatable whether the study
will be a success but called
it "an interesting and open-
minded approach."

Greenway predicated that the
study would prove students who
have defined their goals more
carefully after an earlier fail-
ure can succeed in college and
go on to successful careers in
graduate schools. He points out
it will be sometime before any
conclusions can be drawn.

Dana Gives
Classrooms
To Berry

Berry College will presently
feel a kindred indebtedness with
Agnes Scott to the philanthro-
pist Charles A. Dana for an
addition to their campus.

Berry College is a coeduca-
tional institution in Mount
Berry, Georgia. In the near
future a new multi-purpose
classroom building will be con-
structed. Completion of this
project is planned for Septem-
ber, 1967, "to help meet in-
creasing enrollment demands
and further strengthen the pro-
gram at the college," President
John R. Bertrand said.

The initial funds for the build-
ing came as a $315,000 chal-
lenge gift by Charles A. Dana,
a leading U.S. industrialist and
philanthropist who resides in
Wilton, Connecticut. The Berry
College trustees met the chal-
lenge and raised the matching
funds, with the help of a grant
from the U.S. Department of
Health, Education, and Welfare.

Berry College was previously
indebted to Mr. Dana on two
accounts. He made a challenge
offer which resulted in the
building of Dana Hall, opened
in 1959. Again in 1962 he es-
tablished the Dana Scholarpro-
gram.

(Agnes Scott's own Fine Arts
building, opened this year,
1965-66, is another example of
Mr. Dana's diversified philan-
thropic works.)

Student Group Plans
Road Show For Vietnam

WASHINGTON (CPS) A
group of students from three
Washington universities has
won approval from the State
Department of an idea to show
soldiers in Vietnam that "stu-
dents care."

The students are organizing
a road show and will go to
Vietnam, at goverment expense,
in either April or June. Final
word fromthe State Department
on the script for the show and
whether the group will tour
immediately after graduation in
June has not come through as
yet.

Two scripts have been pre-
pared and the State Department
will decide which one is to be
used. One is a straight musi-
cal comedy on the "boy meets
girl" theme and the other is
a series of shorts based on the
'That Was the Week that Was"
format.

The idea originated with Bob
Johnson, an American Univer-
sity junior, who decided stu-
dents "should do something"
about Vietnam. The idea came,

he said, after a series of pe-
titions went around the AU cam-
pus last November.

Johnson took his idea to se-
veral professors and one of
them presented it to Presiden-
tial assistant McGeorge Bun-
dy. Bundy referred the matter
to the Vietnam desk of the
State Department, and Johnson
appeared before the Psycholo-
gical Warfare Committee, the
multi-agency group that han-
dles such matters relating to
war zones.

The committee was favorably
impressed and recommended
the idea, and the official invi-
tation came from the U.S. am-
bassador to South Vietnam,
Henry Cabot Lodge.

Auditions are now being held
to fill the cast of the road
show at American, Georgetown
University and Howard Univer-
sity. A cast of about 65 will
eventually be chosen and a staff
of 11 will also make the trip.

The number of performances
and the itinerary has yet to be
decided by the State Depart-
ment.

Med Student!? Refuse
To Attend Classes

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (CPS)
Twenty five Harvard medical
students say their lectures are
dull and a waste of time, so
they're being excused from
class and told to study on their
own.

"The lecture system just
doesn't work out," says An-
drew Weil, 23, of Philadelphia,
a second-year student at the
Harvard Medical School.

"The psychological effect of
sitting in a class and being
lectured and 'labbed' at is to
make you passive, dull, lose
motivation and curiosity," he
said. Weil is a leader of the
student group that petitioned
Dean Robert H. Ebert to be
excused from classes for the
rest of the year.

Weil said medical schools
are throwing too many or-
ganized laboratory sessions and
too many lectures at their me-
dical students.

Ebert agreed to excuse the
24 students from the lectures
and laboratories. He said if
anyone is "really going to ex-
cel at anything, he must con-
tinue with his own education, and
a university must have the abi-
lity to stimulate a person to
study in a particular field that
he could only survey superfi-
cially in school."

The 25 students are part of a
106 - member class studying
pathophysiology, a combined
approach to diseases and their
effect on the body.

They will be divided intc
groups of five to devise their
own learning techniques with the
help of volunteer faculty ad-
visers.

They will take the same ex-
amination as their 81 class-
mates and will attend whatever
lectures interest them.

Doctors'

Service

Certain

WASHINGTON (CPS ) A
shortage of doctors in the Arm-
ed Forces means that in the
future a new MD will find it
very difficult to avoid service,
especially with increased re-
quirements during the Vietnam
war.

In a move to accelerate the
induction of doctors the Secre-
tary of Defense has announced
procedures that will require
each Army examining and en-
trance station to eliminate 90
percent of its backlog of phy-
sicians within a few months.

After that time, each station
is expected to have completed
and processed the papers of any
physician eligible for induction
within three days of receiving
them.

The army said that any phy-
sician who has graduated from
a U.S. medical school is likely
to be inducted shortly there-
after.

Publishing Offers Chances
In Textbooks And Comics

Publishing is a giant industry.
It includes trade books, bod
hard and soft cover, textbooks
encyclopedias, consumer mag-
azines, trade (industry) mag-
azines, newspapers, house or-
gans, comics, greeting card
manufacturers, technical re-
port writing, abstracting --
anything actually that has to do
with the printed word 0

One of the most coveted fields
for the erudite, however, is
trade book publishing. This in-
cludes fiction and non-fiction
books published by such illus-
trious houses as Doubleday,
Harper & Row, and Random
House.

In the editorial divisions, col-
lege graduates are indeed very
much in demand. There is con-

DANA FINE ARTS Building is the scene of much artistic endea-

Woodcuts, Etchings
Dana Exhibit Topic

by Janice Weatherby

The 'inhabitants" of the art
gallery in Dana for the past week
have been the various graphic
art works from private collec-
tions.

Graphic art is the "new
thing" in the art world. The
graphic art display in Dana con-
sists of lithographs, etchings
and wood cuts.

Ben Smith, a teacher at the
Atlanta Art university, conduct-
ed an informal lecture in the
galleries of Dana Sunday, Feb.
13. He told the guests that wood
cutting has "become some-
thing that rivals painting."

Mr. Smith then led the visi-
tors upstairs to give a demon-
stration in the process of wood
cutting.

A wood cut is a print that is
produced from a block of wood
that has the design carved out.
Ink is then applied to the rais-
ed area of the carved block of
wood, and a print is made from
this.

The whole process is a very
meticulous and time-consum-
ing one. The making of the
block from which the print is to
be made is similar to "intri-
cate carpentry, only much
more," says Bunny Foster,
an art major doing special study
in wood cutting.

In the past lithography and
etching have been considered

more as a commercial med-
ium. From each block can be
made a number of prints - each
being an "original" in itself.

It is possible to get as many
as 100 etchings from one plate.
Lithography, also grew out
of a practical application* Mr.
Smith emphasized, however,
that not only lithography, but
all the graphic arts have de-
parted from commercialism.

Included in the display at
Dana are the works of such ar-
tists as Georges Rouault, Hon-
ore Daumier and Ferdinand
Warren. Mr. Smith particular-
ly liked one lithograph by Rou-
ault.

"Something this simple, yet
so fine," was his comment as
he pointed to the lithograph
"Veil of Veronica."

UNC Slates
Seminar

"Man, Mind and Myth: The
Conditioned Society" will be the
topic for the fourteenth pre-
sentation of the Carolina Sym-
posium in Chapel Hill this
spring.

During the week of April
17-21, speakers such as Walter
Kaufmann, Daniel Boorstin,
Ralph Ellison, Morris K.Udall,
and Tom Wolfe will particiapte
in an examination of the forces
of myth, and its role in shaping
society's values.

An integral part of the Sym-
posium will be the Intercolle-
giate Seminar, which brings
together selected students from
many colleges and universities.
Those chosen to participate arc-
given a unique opportunity to
explore the topic in depth in
small, informal discussions
with the Symposium speakers
of the day.

The participants' room and
board are covered during their
stay in Chapel Hill. Students
interested in applying for the
Seminar may obtain applica-

Tuesday, February 22, a stu-

alumnae in the Dana Theatre
"On Student Life at Agnes
Scott."

The student panel, composed
of Mary Brown, Jan Gaskell,
Bonnie Jo Henderson, Joan Ki-
ker, Betty Rankin, and Debbie
Rosen, gave a brief summary
of their board's activities for
the year and then answered
questions.

Joan informed alumnae of
the three new projects of AA,
the blood drive, the self-de-
fense course, and the pool table
project.

Jan spoke on the James Ross
McCain Lectureship Fund and
explained the ideas and pur-
poses behind the independent
study program.

Former Scott students were
particularly interested in Mary
Brown's discussion of the new
projects of Christian Associa-
tion in the Decatur area and the
outlined plans for Holy Week
chapels.

Bonnie Jo and Betty discussed

the increased interest of stu-
dents in artistic and social
activities.

Student Body President Deb-
bie Rosen explained Agnes
Scott's role in the "Affirma-
tion: Vietnam" program and re-
lated its success.

In the question and answer
period that followed two topics
were of particular interest.
They were the independent
study program and Bonnie Jo's
play.

When asked what their study
topics were, students said they
were working on everything
from math to getting married
this summer.

One alumna wanted to know
why Bonnie Jo chose such a
morbid subject for her play.

stant recruitment ior highly
motivated career-oriented wo-
men. However, the majority
of jobs do call for good typing
speeds, and a great many of the
jobs also call for stenography.

Just about any job offered in
publishing to a college grad
should be regarded as a ste|>-
ping stone. Whether the job is
tided trainee (usually requir-
ing steuo of about 80 and/or
very good typing), gal Fri-
day, secretary, editorial as-
sistant, proofreader, or even
clerk-typist, the alert person
will be in an ideal position to
saturate herself with publish-
ing know-how and step along on
the career ladder.

Companies make every at-
tempt not to hire a college
graduate on a "dead-end" job.
It is much too expensive to
constantly retrain and recruit
new personnel, if job and can-
didate are not mutually satis-
fying. On the other hand, the
personnel manager cannot al-
ways give a ready answer to
the question of "where will it
lead." So much is up to die
individual.

(i row I h

Experience has proven that
an eager interested person cre-
ates rather than fits into an
existing job. There is always
room for growth and change.
Much of this depends upon the
individual.

We have seen the same job
handled quite differently by two
people. One young lady quit an
editorial assistant position af-
ter three we. ks of trial stating
flatly that there was no poten-
tial.

The second girl on the job
found it fascinating from the
day she entered, was promoted
within six months, and a year
later called us for an assistant
to herself. Her salary had
doubled within twelve months.

Although editing is consider-
ed by many as the only job worth
having in publishing, such a
conclusion is both shortsight-
ed and ill-founded. The adver-
tising department of publishing
calls for a facility with words
that out-creates the editorial
department.
The publicity department uses
bodi writing and contact talent.
Part of the job generally con-
sists of taking authors out to
lunch, arranging TV and radio
appearances and writing inter-
esting stories about the books
published by your company.

The administration depart-
ment sees the manuscript
through the various stages of
copyright and permissions. The
production department puts the
book together in the form that
reaches your hands.

Sales correspondence calls
for ability to wrate letters that
will sell books. All of these
departments call for special
skills and abilities, most of

Decatur and
North Decatur

which can be learned on the
job. l^ach in its own right is
interesting and challenging.

Another large area of pub-
lishing is the magazine field.
This is, m fact, far larger
than book publishing.

Essentially magazine pub-
lishing covers consumer, trade
(read by people in a specific
industry such as engineering,
food, drug, management, etc.)
and house organs which are
company or organization pub-
lications for the benefit of mem-
bership or staff.

K r<| u i rrmrnl

An important requirement for
jobs in diese fields is sum j edi-
torial work on a college news-
paper or literary magazine. The
more one has to show in actual
work experience during college,
the more one is apt to land an
editorial job.

An editor of a college paper
can almost choose her position,
but since you all cannot be edi-
tors, any experience from writ-
ing to proofreading is consid-
ered an asset. Summer jobs
on horn j town papers are also
considered valid experience.

An editorial assistant may
do any job from writing fea-
tures, reporting, copy-editing
and proofreading to produc-
tion. Typing is an asset, but
it is not always essential.. How-
ever, since speed and dead-
lines are constant in these areas
of publishing, typing is much
more help than hindrance.

Majjazinrs

As with book publishing, die
field of magazine publishing
does not end with editorial of-
fice. Here too, there is need for
publicity, copywriting, produc-
tion and sales correspondence.

On some of the women's mag-
azines, there are positions that
call for a knowledge of fashion
and merchandising. The per-
son with these qualifications
would handle the back-of-the
book section that gives infor-
mation on new products and
new developments. Other mag-
azines have begun to use young
women as sales representa-
tives.

Both consumer and trade
magazines have a special de-
partment to take care of circu-
lation. A creative writing abil-
ity combined with a sales sense
is extremely important for cir-
culation.

Production may include the
make-up of editorial pages and
the lay-out of advertisements,
as well as all the activity con-
cerned with printing the paper.

No talent, however small, is
wasted in publishing. All you
need is that "in." Then you
can do the rest.

THE PROFILE

Are You A Sophomore? ^

(ACP) After careful research, the Michi-
gan State News collected this guide on how
to become a "sophomore" or a follower of
"sophomorism," one of the biggest campus
faiths.

1. Complain consistently about the cafe-
teria food, rising grill prices, patrolling
housemothers, standards chairmen, and li-
quor laws. Be sure to develop the proper
glib tone in discussing these issues; for
instance, "Gad, but this jello looks like
swampscum."

2. At the same time, be sure not to get
involved in any organized action to change
anything you've complained about or make
any constructive suggestions. Decry organi-
zers as "rabble rousers" or "publicity
seekers."

3. Decide what's cool and what's not. Then
gather a group of friends and cut down
people who aren't by your definition "cool."

4. In debate or argument, grant the other
side several points but insist that everyone
recognize your rights as well. Remember that
putting the blame on who started the trouble
is more important than ending the argument.

5. Dtvelop an arsenal of gross jokes and
remarks and laugh it up.

6. (a) Assume people are bastards at heart
and that cutting one another underhandedly
is normal procedure. Above all, don't try
to act better than the "bastards." Remember:
be realistic. Label anyone who proffers an
idea for improvement as an impractical idea-
list.

(b) Or, if you favor the idealistic ap-
proach, demand immediate improvements.
Join a marching and singing society. Ad-

ministrative restrictions and peace in Viet
Nam are good subjects. But watch out for
compromises that might undermine your
chances of achieving your goal.

7. Decide (a) God is dead or (b) you can't
prove anthing. And be ready with proof of
either view to last through an all-night
bull session.

8. Adopt the theory of free love. Discuss
with a member of the opposite sex the psy-
chological crippling created by society's re-
strictions on sex. Convince her to join you
in building a more honest society. Believe
in Hugh Hefner as a prophet of our times.

These are the tenets of the faith of sopho-
m or ism. They foster a faith of noncommit-
ment. Under them the "sophomore" whines
about minor nuisances but does not act to
correct them. He often ignores important
issues, or he protests for world reform
without adding the day-by-day compromise
the true reformer uses.

The "sophomore" does not know people,
especially those who are different. He knows
only the shell of the cool and the non-
cool.

In sexual relations, he regards both him-
self and his partner merely as objects and
so creates a new dishonesty.

He argues that one unprovable belief is
as good as the next, but he lacks the true
agnostic's constant study of belief.

His psuedo-philosophizing can keep him
from commitment to any faith that demands
action. And even if his world is bastardly,
must he contribute to the bastardliness?

Sophomorism is a faith without works, and
both the faith and its followers are dead.

Jay Broad Directs
For Theatre Atlanta

Theatre Atlanta is holding
its first repertory season this
year, 1966-67. A million dol-
lar theatre complex is under
construction currently to house
the full-time company.

Constructed as a basic Greek
ampitheatre, it is similar to
the Tyrone Guthrie Theatre in
Minneapolis and the Lincoln
Center Repertory Theatre in
New York City.

WALTERS DORM had a very
obliging slave in Miss Camp-
bell, seen here singing "Di-
xie" on top of a table in the
dining hall; purchased Wednes-
day night by Walters' girls, she
obediently wakened her mas-
ters, attended classes when whe
could, even joined some of her
owners in the study smoker at
midnight to smoke a cigar.

In speaking about the building,
Theatre Atlanta describes the
new theatre as being" so uni-
quely designed that every seat
might be considered 'dress cir-
cle. . .for you will never sit
further than forty feet from the
stage."

Added attractions of the thea-
tre will include a gourmet res-
taurant, an after-dinner cock-
tail lounge, individual cloak loc-
kers, and enclosed parking ac-
cessible to the West Peachtree
address.

The director of the new com-
pany, made up of much local
talent, is Jay Broad. He has
spent the past five years with
productions in New York, one of
which was Caldron's, "Life
Is a Dream". Mr. Broad belie-
ves the future of American
Theatre is to be found outside
Broadway. He believed it firm-
ly enough to give up his ca-
reer in New York and come to
Atlanta as the Managing Direc-
tor of the Theatre Atlanta Re-
pertory Company.

Theatre Atlanta is presently
located at 270 Fifteenth Street,
Atlanta, Ga. For any additional
information call 875-9301.

Participation More Important Than Ever

The staff of the PROFILE ur-
ges every Scott student to par-
ticipate in elections. A few
minutes of balloting will deter-
mine a great deal about the ten-
or of student activities here next
year.

Freshmen sometimes feel that
their half-value vote isn'tworth
the effort; sophomores some-
times tend to be sophomoric
and had rather sit in the Hub
and reject the whole mess; jun-
iors sometimes decide that
making big decisions about so
many of their classmates takes

too much effort; and seniors
sometimes feel that it is none
of their concern anyway.

But this year is quite diffe-
rent from past election years.
There is no rising, clearly
defined group of leaders, care-
fully groomed by the incum-
bent hierarchical powers, to
step easily into the top posi-
tionSo In very few positions
of leadership is it ''under-
stood" that so-and-so will
win this year.

For this reason it is impera-
tive that the results of elections

mirror the studied opinion of
the largest possible segment
of the student body. In a case
like this, a truly representa-
tive voter turnout is the ONLY
way to assure election results
which will be in the best inte-
rest of the student body.

Of course, it isn't enough
just to come and vote. We must
all know why we are voting the
way we are. The purpose of
this special election issue of the
PROFILE is to acquaint each
student with the ideas, opinions,
and goals of the major candi-

dates.

If you say "too boring" and
go on to read Ramona, you arc
failing to be a responsible vot-
er and a responsible member of
the Scott community.

We could not publish state-
ments written by every candi-
date for every office; there is
not enough room or enough
money. It is therefore your re-
sponsibility to find out from
present office holders and from
anyone who might know (1)
the requirements of the various
offices and (2) the abilities of the

various candidates. I lien maKe
your own choice.

The principals of two col-
leges in India are visiting our
campus this week. Miss Gary
says that one of their main ob-
jectives is to get a close look
at the work of student govern-
ment and other types of student-
led organizations, for they do
not have this side of college life
in their schools. We DO have
the privilege of having a stu-
dent government and of shaping
it to our own liking. Come to
elections, and vote responsibly.

Ellen Douglass Leyburn

Professor Leyburn

"She showed us
how to live: with
dignity and with
courage; "and she i
showed us how to j
die, with these
same qualities,"
says Miss Mary
Boney of Miss El-! 1
len Douglass
Leyburn, who
died March 21,
1966.

Miss Leyburn
received her A.
B. degree from
Agnes Scott in |
1927 and her M.
A. from Rad-
cliffe the fol-
lowing year. She
taught at Buffalo Seminary from 1929 to 1932.
received her Ph.D from Yale in 1934 and
came to Agnes Scott that year as an in-
structor in English.

She became assistant professor in 1938, as-
sociate professor in 1943, full professor in
1957. In 1965 she was appointed chairman
of the English Department. For many years
she served as faculty marshall.

She was a member of Phi Beta Kappa and
served as president of the Beta of Georgia
chapter. She alsc belonged to the Interna-
tional Institute of Arts and Letters, the Mod-
ern Language Association, and the English In-
stitute.

Her numerous publications include two
books, Satiric Allegory: Mirror l Man,
published in 1956, and a new work on tragedy
and comedy in Henry James which is now in
the hands of the publisher.

Miss Boney writes, "From the time I first
heard of her, in letters more than two decades
ago from a freshman captivated by her clas-
ses, Ellen Douglass Leyburn's name has
meant to me the utmost in integrity in teach-
ing.

"Her devotion to God through service to
Agnes Scott College was the mainspring of

her life, and her investment in the lives of
both students and colleagues has been uncal-
culable. She was one of those rare per-
sons whose uncompromising standards made
us all want to do better than our best, and
whose compassion with failure inspired us to
get up and start again."

"It is too soon and too personal to write of
our bereavement," writes Mrs. Drucker,
"But I can write with joy soma of what Miss
Ellen Douglass Leyburn has meant to Agnes
Scott College and to her associates. . . .

"It would have been unthinkable to boast
or to pretend with Miss Leyburn. You had
only to be honest.

'There was, however, nothing very modest
about her enthusiasm for Agnes Scott. Her
commitment was never blind, but it was to-
tal. She bristled when someone referred to
Agnes Scott as a 'school' instead of a
"collegel' " Miss Leyburn always managed
to make something other than excellence in
college matters be the issue; she made us
expect excellence as a given."

As Honor Emphasis Week speaker in 1962 -
63, Miss Leyburn spoke about The Plague by
Albert Camus. 'The sinister forces working
against our real integrity are as powerful
and as pervasive and as sly in attack as the
bacillus of the plague and are present in every
false assumption and prejudiced conclusion
we let go unexamined," she said.

"We may never be able to wipe out the
plague; but in the clarity of thought and the
moral courage we bring to bear in combating
it, consists our every identity, our integrity,
as human beings and opportunity to make such
identity possible for others. I should like
to leave with you for pondering in relation
to your own goals, Tarrou's quiet statement
that it is necessary not to be a bearer of
the plague."

As Mrs. Drucker concludes, 'Through the
integrity of her life, Miss Leyburn has
given us a living legacy, the legacy of our
personal growth in committment to the vitali-
ty of Agnes Scott College and to simple
human values."

Two Indian Educators Visit
Scott Campus This Week

Dr. M. Chandy, principal of
Miranda House, University Col-
lege for Women in Delhi, India,
and Miss B. Das Gupta, prin-
cipal of Indraprastha College
for Worn en in Delhi arrived he re
Monday, April 4. They are visit-
ing Agnes Scott through Friday,
April 8, as part of the United-
States-India Women's College
Exchange Program.

While in the United States,
Dr. Chandy and Miss Das Gupta
will visit seven of the program's
participating colleges.

Mrs. Phillip, who was visit-
ing professor of political
science during the fall quarter,
was here as a part of this pro-
gram. During the next school
year in India, Miss Groseclose
will be teaching biology at Mi-
randa House in connection with
this program.

As biologist and philosopher,
respectively, Dr. Chandy and
Miss Das Gupta have been in-
terested in the science and
philosophy classes they have

been attending during their
visit.

In addition, Dr. Chandy and
Miss Das Gupta have met with
various members of the admini-
stration and faculty and also
with student government lea-
ders. Their particular interests
are in finding out the areas
of responsibility of faculty com-
mittees, how a curriculum is
obtained and changed, and how
students are selected.

Winners Happy
With Fellowships

by Virginia Russell

Ask Jan Gaskell how she
feels about her Woodrow Wilson
Fellowship and she'll reply
with a smile, "I feel fine about
it." More seriously, she ad-
mits that the award is somewhat
frightening. 'That's a lot of
money to be handed."

Mary Brown is undoubtedly
quite pleased with hers, but she
is more likely to look worried
about it. When one of her
friends suggested that she think
really hard about which school
she will go to, she retorted,
"What else do you think I do all
day?"

"It was really frightening.
We all were afraid that one of
us wouldn't get it (the fellow-

ship). I think we're almost
happier for each other than for
ourselves." Debbie Rosen also
supplied information about the
fellowships themselves.

Woodrow Wilson Fellowships
are given to college seniors
proficient in their majors who
are going into college teach-
ing. The student's tuition is
paid for a year and he is given
$2,000 in addition (by the
foundation). The college at
which he attends graduate
school also receives money.

Students are recommended
by their department heads. This
year, out of 11,000 nationwide
applications, 1400 fellows were
chosen.

CA Chapel Programs
Celebrate Holy Week

Christian Association has had
several events planned in cel-
ebration of Holy Week.

Monday, the Spelman Glee
Club presented a program of
Easter music in Gaines Audi-
torium.

A choral reading, "Indif-
ference" was given Tuesday
in Dana's theatre. It was ac-
companied by music and dance,
the music being written by Rich-
ard Hensel of Agnes Scott's
faculty. Nancy Bruce was di-
rector of the production.

Convocation yesterday was
given by the Agnes Scott Dance
group. It was a worship service
of Psalms and hymns.

Today's program is one of
slides and music, and is about
"Changing concepts of the cru-
cifixion as seen in painting
through the ages." SigridLyon
is in charge of the arrangement
of the slides.

"Parable" will be shown to-
morrow. This film was featur-
ed in the World Council of Chur-
ches pavilion at the New York
World's Fair.

Saturday's chapel will be a
worship service led by Mary
Brown.

On Easter morning a: 7:30,
a sunrise service will be held

in the amphitheatre. Dr. Gar-
ber will lead the worship. Fifty
churches from the Decatur area
have been invited to attend with
Agnes Scott students.

Zenn Addresses
Phi Beta Kappa
Convocation

Miss Elizabeth Zenn, Agnes
Scott associate professor of
Greek and Latin, will speak at
the 40th Phi Beta Kappa convo-
cation Wednesday, April 13, on
the classical tradition behind
-Phi Beta Kappa.

Following Miss Zenn's talk,
the new initiates, chosen the
day before, will be announced.
These members of the senior
class are chosen on a grade
point basis.

The class of 1966 is out-
standing in that more people
may be qualified than can be
elected, for the number of ini-
tiates is limited to 12 to 15
per cent of the total class.

Phi Beta Kappa was first
founded at William and Mary in
1776 as a secret social organi-
zation. Mrs. Pepe will speak
at the annual banquet in May.

The Ultimate Committee

Administrative Committee plays a decisive role in changing
student policies at Agnes Scott. Presently made-up of Dr.
Alston, Dean Kline, Dean Scandrett, Miss Steele, Dr. Tumblin
and Miss Ripy, Administrative Committee has the power of
final approval on all "important" matters considered by Repre-
sentative and Judicial Councils.

Specifically, "important" matters affecting the whole college
community. Although the Committee has no authority over minor
penalties given by Judicial Council, matters concerning aca-
demic probation, suspension, or expulsion must be reviewed
by Administrative Committee. Dr. Alston comments that he
thinks the Committee ought to have this final responsibility,
because these matters affect not only the student, but also
their families. The Administrative Committee acts primarily
for the college.

Dr. Alston also explains that the reason some students may
think the Committee is slow is because many rule changes are
first referred to other groups, such as the Dean's Staff. Ad-
ministrative Committee then considers the recommendations
made by both the student government and the Dean's Staff
before making a final decision.

In the past there have sometimes been student complaints
about this committee. However, this year Administrative Com-
mittee has worked with Rep. Council on the revision of many
policies, including the drinking, chaperonage, and sophomore
car policies. Only one recommendation by Rep. Council has
failed to receive the approval of the Committee. This is an
encouraging sign in the relationship between Rep. Council
and Administrative Committee. In particular, we thank Admini-
strative Committee for its cooperation in examining student
government proposals.

PROFILE In Perspective

During spring vacation Susan Aikman, and Virginia Russell
and I went to the Southern Regional meeting of the United
States Press Association. Attended by over 70 students from
the 13 state Southern Region, the convention was both enjoyable
and practical. Although I must admit that the weekend's greatest
excitement was seeing Julian Bond in the Americana lobby,
I feel that we and, thereby, the. PROFILE, benefitted greatly.
I stole some good ideas from other college journalists and I
was inspired by their discussion to think of other ideas es-
pecially appropriate for Agnes Scott.

The most striking aspect of my response to the experience
was seeing Scott in a completely new perspective. Never be-
fore had I looked at our college from strictly the journalistic
viewpoint and compared her with the strictly journalistic view
of other colleges. We came out both better and worse in this new
light.

Filling out a questionnaire, I regretted saying what I consider
true that being a PROFILE reporter carries low campus
prestige. Another question listed a dozen issues and asked our
editorial stand, if any. I was happy that we are free of some
of the problems, such as shortage of parking space (and would
you believe draft-card burning?) I was worried about our si-
lence, both editorial and general, on other issues, such as the
morality and availability of birth control pills. (On this par-
ticular problem, many of our readers would doubtless be
shocked.| The fact is, however, that, for better or worse,
Agnes Scott students simply are not bothered, in large part,
by the issues that concern many students.

On the whole, I had more occasion to be proud than ashamed
of Scott, particularly in a session entitled "The Editorial Page."
The discussion centered on the unique and pecarious position
of a campus editor: how much freedom of speech is truly
his? A city administration must endure the existence and cri-
ticism of a commercial press; a college administration can
react by removing a student from his editorial position at
the very least. And the amount of unconstitutional censorship
that goes on on some campuses is appalling.

A little news managing there, a little withholding of information
here, but at Scott I have never encounted the like of non-student
control that many papers must endure. Perhaps the PROFILE
is so harmless, it needs no control. This I fed is unfortunate
but in part true. The greater reason, however, is the general
freedom of thought that exists at Scott. To m2, anything less
than this freedom is fatal to both college and press . I am
grateful for it here and shocked at its absence elsewhere.

So what benefit to you is this convention and my thoughts
about it? Hopfully, a great deal. We have specific ideas to put
definite campaigns and studies to start,
have a more abstract grounding, a new
firmer attitude all of which are best
contact and discussion with others who

More than that, we
perspective, and a
gained through such
share our situation.

Well, somebody finally did it, and got away
with it 0 Last quarter a senior handed in a
nicely typed paper in which she inserted "Now
is the time for all good men to come to the
aid of their country," which of course had
nothing to do with her subject (or with any-
thing). And the professor didn't even notice.

Zoo Story

Zoo weather is here. Drive out to Grant
Park and see the monkevs, lions, Willy B.
the gorilla, and the wild people, The seals
are nice, and the elephant pen is carefully
constructed so that you can feed those mons-
ters without getting nervous. There is a new
snake house, if you like that sort of thing.
If it rains, go see the Cyclorama (near the
llamas). Everything is free except the Cyclo-
rama.

Alabama Politics

Over spring holidays I attended the Big
Jim Folsom for Governor Kick-Off Rally in
Cullman, Alabama. He's big all right; about
six feet eight inches tall, and wore a lime
green suit with chartreuse tie and hand-

kerchief ("because my mama was Irish).

Jim says,' I started out with 40 acres, a
plow, and a hard-tailed mule, and now look
where I am."

Alabama's ex-governor admits that he did a
little drinking when he was "down there in
Montgomery," but he says that was all due
to a cerebral anurism ("a blowed out blood
vessel on my brain), and now that the doctors
have "cut on it," he has no more need for
alcohol. "After all," he says, "no baseball
player ever made any hits without making a
few errors along the way."

Jim had a large, attentive, placard bearing
crowd. Squads of children stuck "Y'allCome"
bumper stickers on all the cars. He told the
crowd, "Every one of you people in this
county has free and equal rights, and I help-
ed give them to you." I looked all over Cull-
man that day and didn't see one Negro. That,
to Jim Folsom, is the definition of equal
rights.

Folsom has been running for governor of
Alabama since the 1940's. He has won twice.
He expects to win this election by making
such quasipositive statements as his parting
shot, "It may have clouded up when I was in
that governor's office, but folks. ..it never
rained." (Wild applause.)

The Hooded Rapist

Princeton Man
Gives "Inside"
Bowl Tale

To The Editor:

Although Princeton Seminary
and Princeton University share
the same name in the same town,
the relation between the two can
be called cordial but by no
means intimate.

Moreover, the Seminary has
two students who claim a cer-
tain Southern college for women
as their alma mater.

Therefore, I am not betray-
ing my fellows by sharing with
you a relatively inside picture of
the wonderful event which hap-
pened Sunday . (Scott's college
Bowl victory over Princeton,
of course.)

During my usual Sunday af-
ternoon trek to Princeton Uni-
versity Firestone Library (ours
was closed of course), I stopped
by the PU Student Center to
grab a bite to eat and watch
the College Bowl.

As the 5:30 hour grew near,
"Whoever heard of Agnes Scott
College?" was perhaps the most
common joke as about three
score grubby PU students jam-
med themselves in the smoke-
filled TV room before a huge
color TV.

As the girls from Agnes Scott
College were announced, the

names were barely audible
amidst the roar of hisses and
boos which permeated the room.

The calm, confident PU team
members were welcomed with
joyous shouting as they pre-
pared to slaughter the obviously
nervous, trembling girls from
that unknown Southern school.

It looked like a runaway as
the PU boys jumped to an early
lead with gleeful grunts and
raucous laughter from loyal
supporters in the TV room.
But waitl The Southern girls
tied the score, then surged
ahead to a 100-60 lead at the
intermission.

The atmosphere was tense
and a pin-dropping silence
flooded the room as the second
half started.

The Tigers regained their old
form and soon claimed the lead.
With renewed confidence the PU
boys soared to a commanding
185-130 score, and the viewers
relaxed as the game appeared
to be in the bag.

The team members from PU
seemed to relax, too, and to
forget about the buzzers.The
girls responded to the final bar-
rage of questions with great
finesse.

It was pure joy to hear Betty
answer "Calvin" after the boys
earlier had displayed such
ignorance of Augustine and
Luther.

The irony of ironies and the
crucial blow to the boys came
as Scott shouted "Einstein" and
the man doubtless rolled over in
his grave.

The halls of ivy turned from
green to a shriveled brown. Al-
bert Einstein, former Profes-
sor of the Princeton Institute for
Advanced Studies, walked the
streets of Princeton daily
during the last years of his life,

and his home is little more than
a stone's throw from the Grad-
uate College of Princeton Uni-
versity.

The boys from Princeton van-
quished the girls from Mt.
Holyoke (one of those top
EASTERN girls schools) the
week before, but there was no
joy in Tigertown Sunday. Some
comments I overheard were:
'The ignominy of it all I" "How
humiliatingl" "Mmmmmmm.. c
Like those Southern girlsl"

"Whoever heard of Agnes
Scott College?" is a question
Princeton boys will ask no
more. Congratulations!

MOCKINGS

FROM
RAMONA

Dear Dad,

How are you and the TV din-
ners coming along? I certainly
hope you're doing all right with
your housekeeping. I'm so glad
that Mom has a chance to take
this trip with Bobby's class. It's
nice for her to have a rest and
the kids can have a good time
and education both during spring
vacation.

Somehow, though, Newark,
New Jersey, wasn't the scenic
vacation spot I had in mind. It's
really too bad they were so en-
thralled with the refineries to
get into New York. It sounds
like a malodorous experience
for all concerned.

Activities at school have kept
me busy since my return; sorry
I haven't written before. It
took me nearly a week to recov-
er from the holidays.

The blood drive was the first
big event. I was slightly ner-
vous as I went into Rebekah, es-
pecially since I had to step over
two victims who had passed out
in the doorway on their way in.
Then the girl in front of mc
was spotted as a hemophelia
carrier. At least she is linked
in history with Queen Victoria
and has something in common
with Richard Burton.

Actually everything went fine.
I had nothing like Ellen Wood's
problem. Her blood just sat
there in her veins and refused
to budge. On my way back to
the dorm, however, I did meet
with a small accident. I thought
for a while they would have to
give my blood back to me. I
fell off my bike right in front
of the Hub. I tried to attribute
my fall to weakness, but 35
bridgeplaying witnesses testi-
fied it was my simple stupidity.

Here we are already right in
the middle of elections. I am
so glad they aren't a thing like
high school elections. The
newspaper articles especially
have pointed out to me the
clear-cut issues involved in
each race. I was also glad to
learn the philosophies of life of
so many of the candidates.

The thing I really crave is
that no race is just a popularity
contest. I have also been im-
pressed by the eagerness of
everyone to take responsibility
and run for office, especially
the junior class.

I'm sorry to stop now, Dad,
but I must dash to discuss stu-
dent newspapers with some In-
dian educators in our elegantly
decorated Pub.

Love,

Ramona

Scott Donates 203
U nits A t BloodDrive

"Most of them go in scared
and come out all right" is the
way the student blood donors in
Rebekah reception room were
described last Thursday.

The blood drive Thursday,
March 31 was successful with a
turn out of approximately 28
per cent of the student body.
203 pints of blood were re-
ceived.

Athletic Association actually
began the blood drive during
winter quarter when Dr. Irving
Greenberg spoke in convoca-
tion. Then A.A. representa-
tives on each dormitory hall
signed up prospective donors
and sent the students who were
under 21 home to spring vaca-
tion with parental permission
blanks.

Around 350 donor pledges
were received winter quarter.
On Thursday 260 students came
out but 57 were rejected most-
ly because of low iron count.

Each donor gave one pint of
blood. Those who felt faint af-
ter donating were given one for
the road, orange juice and cho-
colate chip cookies.

Most students report that they
are quite scared while waiting
in line but after they went in,
everything was fine. Susan
Thomas and Louise Smith even
managed to entertain themsel-
ves by counting the dots iit the
ceiling of the reception room.

Each donor was given a Red
Cross card certifying that she
had donated one pint of boood.
The card entitles a member of
the family of the door, her hus-
band, children, or her parents-
in-law to receive blood.

Also it was promised that if

Senator Thurmond

Society's Great Threat
Is Relativism "Idea"

by Rosalind Todd

South Carolinian Senator Strom Thurmond, spoke to a group
of Agnes Scott students Friday, April 1.

His speech, entitled "The Challenge of Relativism to Free-
dom," stressed that the greatest threat to our society is an
"idea.** This is the concept of moral and political relativism
which substitutes for absolutes whatever is expedient for the
moment.

Senator Thurmond said that the essence oi this in govern-
ment is seen in the United States Supreme Court and in in-
cidences such as the Bobby Baker case. The height of rela-
tivism is reached in government with the theory that "govern-
ment has a right to lie to protect itself."

After his speech Senator Thurmond answered questions on
NATO, federal control, and Vietnam. Commenting on the
Vietnam war, he said that if the U.S. does not win this war,
then we will have to fight again probably closer to home.

Before becoming a member of Congress, Senator Thurmond
was governor of South Carolina and the Democratic States-
Rights candidate for President in 1948. Senator Thurmond is
the only U.S. Senator to be elected on a write-in ballot.

25 per cent of the student body
donated blood that the entire
student body and the faculty
would be covered for one year.

The blood collected here at
Scott will be used in this area
for local hospital patients, for
blood medicines used in treating
burns, shock, and hemorrhage
victims, and for blood disord-
ers.

The Atlanta Red Cross states
"student participation in the
blood program has reached a
all-time high during the last six
months."

The Bloodmobile's visit to
Agnes Scott will be followed
by similar visits to Georgia
Tech and the University of
Georgia later this spring.

Mortar Board
Starts Seminars
On Study Topics

Malie Burton conducted the
first of the "Scholars at Work"
seminars Thursday, March 31.
Various faculty members and
students heard her discuss the-
atrical interpretations of Rich-
ard III, her independent study
project.

Malie said she picked this
topic with the help of Dr. Hayes
and Miss Winter. She said she
had wanted to do something
with Shakespeare, but "got all
excited" at the prospect of dis-
cussing actors and actresses.

Malie has a special personal
interest in drama and has had
roles in many campus produc-
tions.

She first analyzed the play
itself, which she said, "is not
one of the great tragedies, but
has its own kind of power."

Malie stressed that the char-
acter of Richard III himself
governs the effectiveness of
the entire play, and proceeded
to talk on actors from Burbage
to Olivier who have interpreted
Richard III.

Seven more such seminars
will be conducted in the 1 Schol-
ars At Work" series. The
program, conducted by Mortar
Board, will give the campus
community the opportunity to
share the results of the inde-
pendent study of outstanding
students and faculty members.

About The Infirmary

The infirm ary is good to go to if you need a heating pad or
cold pills. You can sleep down there in peace at night even
if you're not sick, and if you are sick they give you cokes
and ginger ale.

Some people, however, feel that this is the extent of the care
offered.

It is, of course, difficult for the infirmary to treat a whole-
new batch of 100 or more girls each fall with no previous
knowledge of them. And some girls do try to use the infirm a ry
to get out of tests.

As is stated in the handbook and during an interview with
one of the nurses, day students arttreatedonly in emergencies.
This obviously excludes colds, etc.

During in this interview the nurse said that there is in the
infirmary a list of doctors who may be called if the college
physician cannot be reached.

There has been some feeling that these two policies espe-
cally are not being followed.

The PROFILE feels that if the college physician cannot be
reached, a student should be allowed an examination by another
physician if she desires it.

We also feel that student who come to the infirmary should
be examined and treated promptly by the physician.

It would be good to clarify the position of the day student
who becomes sick or has an accident when she is spending the
night in the dorm, and to restate the position of the boarding
student from Atlanta who has gone to an Atlanta physician prior
to attending Agnes Scott.

The self-study report shows that most students were satis-
fied with the plant and equipment at the infirmary, and that com-
plaints centered around the care. It went on to say that the
administration had checked into these reports and found them
groundless.

It is difficult for a student to tell how sick she is; But there
have been several cases of students feeling bad enough to be
in bed who have gone to classes and exams because they have
been dubious of the infirmary.

If a student is to be required to go to the infirmary, she
should give a definite place to ask questions or lodge any
complaints. At present there in no place for this except the
administration. They in turn can do nothing about complaints
until they have heard them.

A student who is upset about infirmary care should com-
plain to the proper authorities. Students griping among them-
selves rarely get anything constructive for their efforts.

College Bowl Team Reveals
Wild N ew York Adventure

It is common knowledge that
a little over four weeks ago our
College Bowl team, made up of
Katherine Bell, Betty Butler,
Karen Gearrald, and Malinda
Snow, Captain, went to New York
to play against Princeton on
General Electric's "College
Bowl." It is also known that
our team won, and returned to
New York to play against Mar-
ietta College the next week. But
there are some things about both
of these trips that up to now
have not been known, except to
a few.

"Our Saturdays in New York
were the most fun," says Ma-
linda Snow, captain of the team.
"Just being together was fun,
and we weren't really thinking
about College Bowl, it was noth-
ing. After all, we'd been doing
that for a long time."

The team took almost ail
their own food both weekends.
Sflid Malinda. "We wanted to

"Betty and I unhooked one of
those big carts which the por-
ters use and used it to get ail
our luggage to the escalator,"
said Malinda, "and then we
put it, one piece at a time on
the escalator to get it upstairs."

They finally arrived at their
hotel in New York, and at 4
a.m. Miss Hutchens wanted a
ham sandwich and a glass of
milk. The girls walked, in the
rain, to what they called "Shy-
lock's Corner" to get it.

Saturday, Malinda, Betty and
Susan Thomas set out for the
Metropolitan Museum. It was
both "interesting and free."
They saw knights in armor and
bought some reproductions and
prints. "We took our lunch
and ate outside because you
can't eat inside. We bought
chestnuts and pretzels from a

the next week. "It was almost
as if we'd had a premonition."
says Malinda.

The team, except for Karen
who was with her parents, spent
some more time in Central
Park. They went to the zoo and
"saw some kind of sea lion
which Susan Smetherst had nev-
er seen before."

"We saw this wonderful clock
which is built into the city wall
surrounding the park. At one
o'clock all the animals started
dancing and playing the "Anvil
Chorus" on their instruments.
I'm sure we looked like coun-
try come to town to all the
children who see it everyday,"
recalls Malinda.

"A photographer from At-
lanta Magazine went with us
and was taking a picture of us
on a bench, when a lady asked
us if we were professional mod-
els," said Malinda. Betty
didn't hesitate to tell her they

filled the Hub hours after the Scott victory over Princeton; returning team member Betty Butler

on your glorious victory! "This was the climax of an evening which began with the College Bowl
Program, songs at the airport, the motorcade back to Scott, adn ended in the Hub party cele-
brating the victory.

save our money for the more
important things. We bought
only one meal each weekend."

The first weekend, it seems,
it was a little foggy around New
York, and so, impossible to land
there. When the pilot announ-
ced that they were having a lit-
tle difficulty, Miss Hutchens,
who was a little nervous any-
way, did not run up and down
the aisle, but sat even more
rigidly in her seat than before,
and flipped through her maga-
zine even more vigorously.

They landed at Dulles Inter-
national and had a delightful
drive to the train station. In-
cidentally, they saw Robert
Kennedy's house which, Malinda
said, is "just like anybody else's
house." They also got a glimpse
of the White House.

But the excitement had only
begun. When they arrived at

Pennsylvania Station at 2 a.m.

there were no porters available.

man in Central Park and then
sat on the bench and ate, fed
the chipmunks - one of the
near-sighted little things bit my
hand - and watched the little
old ladies walking their dogs,
which looked like deflated bal-
loons," according to Malinda.

Katherine spent all afternoon
sitting in front of the Metropoli-
tan Opera House until she final-
ly got a ticket.

Karen was contacted by a wo-
man about recording for the
blind so she spent the after-
noon with her.

The second Saturday was
spent walking some 35 blocks.
"We did more shopping the
second week," said Malinda.
"We went to a discount record
store and bought the 'Fireworks
Music' of Handel. Then to the
Frick Gallery where we saw
The Portrait of the Doge of
Venice'. Both the rqusic and
the painting were on the show-

were not.

Since Miss Groseclose had
prepared most of the food for
the trips, the team decided to
bring a little something back
for her. They found a little
shop where candles in the shape
of Easter eggs are made and
"painted very beautifully and
delicately." They bought one
and Susan Thomas carried it
the rest of the day in a paper
bag. Well, when they decided
to go back to the hotel they
tried to catch a bus. Katherine
jumped on a crowded bus and
the driver, not seeing Susan,
closed the door with the egg
on the bus and the rest of the
bag and Susan still standing on
the curb. It's no wonder the
people on the bus looked a lit-
tle confused when Susan kept
yell ing , "My egg I My egg I " T he
egg was rescued.

Both Saturday nights every-
one went to a restaurant, and

'THE TEAM" WAS GIVEN a send-off party in the Hub before

their first departure for New York and the College Bowl pro-
gram; laughs were provided by a hilarious "cheer" made
especially for the Team and the antics of such "cheer-
leaders" as Bronwen EXiKate (left) and Betty Derrick, who
presented a typical half-time show from the sidelines of the
crowded Hub.

then divided up and saw a total
of four plays.

They ate at a little English
restaurant next to the ice skat-
ing rink in Rockefeller Center
where Betty saved a little boy
from a revolving door.

The funniest thing of all hap-
pened to Miss Hutchens. She
was determined to find a cer-
tain English- made overcoat
while in New York. After
going to several stores without
any luck, she asked one of the
salesmen where she could find
the coat she wanted. He looked
up the distributors and came
back apologizing, "I'm sorry
but the only distributor on the
East Coast is in Atlanta."

"I guess I haven't said much
about College Bowl, have I?",
Malinda apologized. "It was
nothing, it was so short. It
was a little saddening to see the
Princeton team after we beat
them. I felt sorry for them."

When asked about the captain
of the Princeton team and his
apparent smugness during the
show, she said, "We liked him.
He was just nervous, I think,
but after the show he kissed
me and congratulated us. He
came back the next week and
tried to be so pleasant and kind,
having experienced losing the
week before."

"He told us about living with
seven boys in a suite at Prince-
ton. They do their own cook-
ing. Each makes a dish and
they eat together. They gave
us some recipes and Katherine
is sending them hers for
bread. It was one of those
nice little moments that pops,
in and pops out."

Miss Carrington Wilson ac-
companied the team to New
York. She said, 'The girls
were surprisingly composed
and calm before the show. Of
course, there was much ex-
citement and jumping up and
down afterwards."

Work man

Miss Wilson went back to the
studio after the set had been
removed. There was a work-
man there sweeping the floor.
As he pushed the broom, he mut-
tered, "I just can't believe itl
I just can't believe what those
girls did to them Princeton
boys I"

Malinda said that she and
Betty kept punching each other
all the way home on the plane tp
say, "Just five pointsl"

It was a memorable, exciting,
and sometimes unbelievable two
weeks for everyone involved,
all the Scott students and es-
pecially the team.

Three Vie For Government President

Allen Seeks
Administrative
Voice, Power
For Students

Roach Puts
Emphasis On

Communication,
Reorganization

CLAIRE ALLEN

In order to better explain the program I would fol-
low if elected student body president, I would like to
say a few things about the view I have of Agnes Scott
as it is now and as I think it should be. If the college
has a clearly defined purpose, and I am not sure
that it has, two important elements of this purpose
are the achievement of a liberal arts education for
each student and the strengthening of a Christian faith
in each student.

Perhaps, in the past, students who have attended
Agnes Scott have understood and accepted these two
purposes. Because these avowed purposes influence
each student here today, I feel that, as part of student
government's program, there is a need to discuss the
value and the meaning of a liberal arts college and an
emphasis on the Christian faith at Agnes Scott.

I feel that a large segment of the present student
body is not actively seeking a broad education and
does not accept the Christian religion. Therefore, I
think it is the student body president's responsibility
to open a forum for discussion in an effort to bring
Agnes Scott's image and the true spirit of the campus
into closer accord.

Potentialities

The potentialities of Agnes Scott as a dynamic intel-
lectual and social community are very great, and yet,
have existed largely unrealized. Many students and
many faculty members have had the heartbreaking ex-
perience of listening to a bright student who is trans-
ferring to another college explain that she feels closed
in at Agnes Scott and that she feels herself losing the
intellectual interest and excitement which she brought
with her to the college. This situation is deplorable,
but has occurred over and over again.

I feel that there are two main ways to improve a
campus which is composed of students who smile and
speak to each other but who feel cut off from any real
communication with each other. The first way is to
increase the students* voice and power in the adminis-
tration of the college and the second is to spend less

JUDY ROACH

To accomplish the purposes and goals of student
government, it is necessary to develop a structure that
will insure efficiency in serving the needs of the com-
munity. However, structure is only part of any or-
ganization even a structure like Representative Coun-
cil.

Within the Agnes Scott community, Rep Council ser-
ves as a vital liaison between the various organizations
on campus and between the students and the adminis-
tration. It is only a means of communication not an
end in itself. In the final analysis, it is not structure
but people and ideas that make a student government
good or poor.

The government on this campus must not only be by
the people and for the people. It must be "of the
people," expressing the philosophy and goals of the
student body which forms the constituency and the
college wherein the student government exists. Thus,
in its endeavors the student government must commu-
nicate with its student body, its administration, and
the community at large.

In the coming year, I would like to urge, then, a
cultivation of bridges of communication both on the
campus and in the Atlanta community, and an innova
tion of channels where they do not already exist.

Faculty Interplay

On the campus, I would like to see more"student-
faculty-administration interplay, with students aware
of the student and faculty committees and channels
that are available to meet their needs and with joint
temporary committees for more open discussion of com-
mon difficulties and concerns.

One of the student committees that has been par-
ticularly active in recent years with seminars, major
nights, etc. is Curriculum Committee. This sphere
of education is of interest to the entire academic com-
munity and should be accentuated and broadened.

In some cases, cultivation of the existing structure

LYNNE WILKINS

The role of student government is one which con-
stantly alters, both because of the moving times and the
changing character of the students who administrate
it, but the basic aim remains that of preparing students
to assume their roles as responsible citizens in society.

The past three years have seen much reorganization
and reworking of the structure and influence of student
government in order to relate the college community
more closely to the larger community in which we live.
The past year has provided an immense step forward
in opening channels of communication and in demon-
strating our maturity in shaping and supporting major
policies.

Great Solidity

Student government at Agnes Scott has achieved great
solidity and rests on a very strong foundation, but it
must go further if it is to merit validity. It can and
must move outside rule changes and reorganization,
or this past year will have proved to be a peak rather
than an important beginning. It is in this broad area
that I would like to see student government concen-
trate its efforts for the coming year.

There are two major directions which can provide
positive steps in accomplishing this aim. The first of
these involves the formulation of the academic environ-
ment. Since education is the prime concern at Agnes
Scott, students should take a vital interest in the meth-
ods and implements used to accomplish this goal.

I would like to see student government become an im-
portant vehicle in expressing opinions on curricula,
educational policy, and academic freedom. Curriculum
Committee has worked very hard in this area, but it
needs the support of student government and the entire
student body before it can have an effective voice in
any changes we would like to see made.

Student government could assume more responsibility
in supplementing the curricula by sponsoring convo-
cations, symposiums, forums on important issues, and

Two Seek House Council Post

During the present year, House
Presidents Council has worked
quite hard, and the improved
structure of the individual
House Councils reflects this
work. Our expanding campus
places more demands on the
dorms, and only a well-organiz-
ed House Presidents Council
will be able to cope with the new
problems as they arise. If I
were elected Chairman of House
Presidents Council, I would try
to continue the work begun this
year and strengthen further the
organization's foundations.

JANE
McCURDY

PENNY
PENLAND

Because the House President is responsible for the girls and
the activities in her dorm, she has a most important job, but one
whose significance has often been overlooked in the past. This
year, more than ever before, the House President has actualized
the possibilities inherent in her office by working with the Senior
Resident and Judicial members to create a more cohesive and
efficient system. However, I would stress a closer relation-
ship between the Senior Judicial Representative and the House
Council. One obvious result of such a relationship would be a
joint effort in dealing with losses.

This year fire drills have been conducted in a more realistic
manner than before. Although everyone hates to be waked up at
3 a.m., no one can question the validity of drills late at night.
I think we would also benefit from some day-time fire drills
and air-raid drills.

Signing out in the dorms on week-nights has been a much-dis-
cussed topic. Until it were feasible to install an elaborate check-
out system, I would suggest allowing girls to sign out in the
dorm on week-nights on pink slips. Unlike Friday and Saturday
hostess duty, week-night hostess duty would require a girl's
reporting to the desk at 11:30, making a list of those who are
out, and calling the DO at 11:45.

(CONTINUED ON PAGE 10)

For the Chairman of House
Presidents' Council, there is a
two- fold responsibility, and the
two aspects are complemen-
tary, rather than contradictory:
Organization and Flexibility.

If the two can be brought
together to mesh smoothly, the
potential of the Council can
reach a dynamic actualization.
We can avoid the rigidity that
often cripples an organization
by maintaining a pliable struc-
ture.

The Council functions both as
co-ordinating body for the living
areas, with each other and with
Rep Council and as the most di-
rect and continuing link be-
tween the Dean's Staff and the

student body, a dual role which became clear to me only after a
talk with Debbie Potts, the present Chairman.

There must be an open means of channeling information back
and forth between the Dean's Office and the students, between Rep
Council and the living areas. This requires an established line
of co-ordination.

Yet, on matters such as the scheduling of phone co-op and the
meeting of each House Council, there is no need for a mandatory
uniform pattern. It is highly desirable for each Dorm Presi-
dent to have the freedom to design certain tailor-made arrange-
ments for her particular living area.

Within such a flexible organization there are many possibili-
ties. Dorms can plan their own uniqe parties or even have an
after-the-dance breakfast. A new twist might be a dorm rum-
mage sale for hats, sweaters, or stuffed animals.

The operation of each House Council for next year will be great-
ly facilitated by the change in the by-laws which will permit the
Councils' members to be elected early in the fall quarter.

Through the living areas there is a great opportunity for stu-
dent evaluations of various campus activities to be funneled back
to the Dean's Staff and to Rep Council. Making more extensive
use of this channel could result in a more rapid communication
of student opinion and in desired improvements.

In short, it is my view that the potential of House Presidents'

Wood Airs
Conception
Of Judicial

In all elections, the center of
attention is usually focused upon
the candidates' personal quali-
fications for the particular of-
fices for which they are running;
that such considerations should
enter in choosing candidates for
office goes without saying. As
it is stated in our Pledge, the
Agnes Scott student accepts the
Honor System as her way of
life within the larger context of
Honor. Thus, above all in the
choice of a Judicial Chairman,
the Student Body has not only a
right, but an obligation to con-
sider the candidate's personal
qualifications, especially with
an eye to her conception of the
responsibilities and attitudes of
a body concerned with inter-
preting and executing a code of

Athletic Association President

Why is Athletic Association
an integral organization on the
Agnes Scott campus? Generally
speaking I might say that if a
student participates in any one
of the activities offered by AA
then she is fulfilling not only
her own pesonal satisfaction
but the desire of AA.
i

MARY BARNE77

However, this broad state-
ment must be narrowed down in
order to understand the exist-
ing purposes of Athletic Asso-
ciation and how this organiza-
tion affects the individual. AA
functions as a coordinating body
which exercises its power to
construct in areas where in-
terest has been expressed and
to destroy existing rograms
that have lost student support.

In other words, Athletic As-
sociation is not a group of girls
who advocate that sports should
be "shoved down the throats"
of individuals, but rather it is
an organization that operates
to create a flexible plan of con-
tinuous offerings found outside
of the academic realm.

It is important to erase any
brand which might be stamped
on AA as a sponsor of rough-
necked, strictly athletic type
endeavors. AA deserves rec-
ognition in its direct relation-
ship with the student body to
raise the level of excellence
physically as well as men-
tally.

Athletic Association's prime
interest is in you. Instead of
putting two heads together it
puts twenty-one together every
Monday as the board probes
new ideas which will further
develop the individual's growth,
her sense of sportsmanship,
her willingness to participate,
her cooperation and teamwork,
and her skill. AA's major aim
is to create interest, if it is
not already there, and to offer
many varities of activities.

LINDA COOPER

This year has seen the insti-
tution of several new programs
to the Athletic Association re-
pertoire - the self-defense
course, the blood drive, the
sponsorship of Sigma Chi Derby
on the Scott campus, not to
mention the pool table. And yet
these programs will be of only
momentary value unless they
are consolidated and form a
base on which to build in future
years. It is the continuation
of these programs which I feel
to be the primary task for next
year's A. A. board.

In addition I feel that an ef-

fort should be made to carry
out more fully the purpose of
Athletic Association as set forth
in the constitution. That is,
"...to promote interest in ath-
letic and recreational activities
among the students, as a means
of creating spirit, encouraging
good sportsmanship, and de-
veloping physical fitness."

Since a successful A.A. pro-
gram is dependent primarily on
student interest and participa-
tion, as a candidate for presi-
dent I would encourage A. A. to
provide an opportunity for every
student to participate either in-
dividually or as a member of
a team in some phase of the
program. This could be ac-
complished by the use of ques-
tionnaires to discover what type
programs the student body
would like to see effected.

A.A. should also consider the
following proposals:

1) An increased emphasis
should be given to individual
sports, with more clinics pro-
vided for tennis, archery, etc.

2) Intercollegiate activities,
both conferences and sport
both conferences and sport
events, should be broadened to
provide contact with students
outside of our immediate geo-
graphic area.

3) Tennis, golf, and swim-
ming teams should be estab-
lished.

The purpose of Athletic As-
sociation as stated in the Con-
stitution is 4 to promote inter-
est in athletic and recreational
activities among the students as
a means of creating spirit, en-
couraging good sportsmanship
and developing physical fit-
ness."

While accepting this state-
ment, I realize that A.A. has
the added responsibilities of of-
fering for everyone some ac-
tivity that will relieve the ten-
sions of academic life, creating
a spirit of unity along with one
of competition, and developing
individual proficiency as well
as interest in athletics.

To achieve these purposes
next year, I would like to pro-
pose the following program:
-A.A. must continue to offer
its wide variety of team and in-
dividual sports and other activi-
ties such as Hub parties, spirit
competition and sweatshirt
sales. I would like to place
special emphasis on a physical
fitness program directed by a
standing committee on A.A,
which would conduct an organiz-
ed information campaign about
exercises and health.

-Individual activities such as
tennis, bike-riding badminton,
archery, etc. should be encour-
aged and revitalized by promot-
ing A.A. tournaments and stres-
sing the rewards of the point
system. A program should be
developed to aid beginning or in-
termediate players by utilizing
the talents of individuals in the
Tennis Club, the William Tell
Club, or the Dolphin Club.

A.A. should assume a lead-

ing role in on the Georgia Ath-
letic and Recreational Federa-
tion for College Women (G.A.R.
F.C.W.) to strengthen that or-
ganization and our own Associa-
tion. I would eventually like to
see a delegate from Agnes Scott
attend the national conference,
which would be an experience
that would broaden the ideas
and scope of A.A.'s activities.

-A.A. should become an agen-
cy of contact between Agnes
Scott students and students of
schools within the Atlanta area,
the state, and our region. Play-
days in team and individual
sports should be arranged
through G.A.R. F.C.W. and on
our own initiative in order to
achieve this purpose.

-The executive Board of A.A.
needs to be regularly used dur-
ing the year to propose projects
and programs to the entire
Board and to coordinate all
activities of Athletic Associa-
tion.

-Certain standing commit-
tees created this year need to
be continued along with their
programs: Self-Defense, First-
Aid and especially the Blood
Drive. The responsibility for
the Drive should be under the
leadership of the Vice-Pres-
ident and a committee.

All of these proposals are
possible only if the A.A. Board
is composed of enthusiastic,
hard-working and spirited girls
selected from the rising Junior
and Sophomore classes. I feel
it would be a pleasure to be
the leader of such a dynamic
group which is striving to
achieve good sportsmanship,
physical fitness, and spirit.

BETTY BUTLER

"The academic world is
hardly more awake than the
church to questions of ultimate
significance. We get gut courses
with gutless sentimentalities
about man and society. The
campus is gung-ho for academic
honors, but without academic
excellence, for action without
direction, and for involvement
without meaning. All these
idolatries are reflected in rlie
Christian community on cam-
pus. The academic community
is a sitting duck, awaiting the
blast of a sharp polemic from
some unknown quarters for its
scientism and sentimentalism.
Will that blast come, as it should,
from the student Christian
movement, or will it have to
come from more awakened
forces on the campus, such as
drama, philosophy, or psycho-
therapy?" Professor Thomas
C. Oden has here sounded the
challenge that I believe Chris-
tian Association ultimately to
face.

dances or week-ends it is
necessary to assure that there
will be sufficient funds. This
can be done by establishing the
present dance fund on a more
sophisticated basis: that is, the
Board will have a set mini-
mum amount always available
in the fund, and if money is
taken from the fund to pay for
expenses, it will be replaced by
the sale of the tickets. In the
past, Social Council has depend-
ed heavily on allotments and has
had to rely on the ticket money
itself to pay expenses:

Social Council does not mere-
ly organize and co-ordinate
campus social activities. Its
purpose, in the most general and
important sense, is to provide
to the students the opportuni-
ties to develop socially as they
have developed in other areas;
it helps promote a balanced per-
sonality. The Board's activi-
ties relate the students to the
faculty, to each other, and to
men on the same basis as they
will meet people in later life.

In the past year Social Coun-
cil has expanded its services in
many directions: two daooa
w-^ek-ends instead af one annual
dance, faculty-student coffees,
a bridal fashion show, more In-
teresting and varied newspaper
articles, and bulletin board fea-
tures. These should be continu-
ed as well as movies, other
fashion shows, and Hub parties.

I have given special conside-
ration to the following three
areas. Concerning the dance
week-ends. I would like to work
with House Council to have the
dorms open to dates one after-
noon, perhaps serving refresh-
ments on the halls. I would like
also to incorporate a third dance
week-end, or at least a third
dance, featuring a name band,
into the fall quarter on a week-
end when Tech's football game
is away.

This year Agnes Scott has
been widely recognized as a
leading woman's college. It is
becoming known not only as a
"good school" bu: as a pro-
gressive school which places
primary emphasis on an acade-
mic education but also realizes
that there are other aspects of
the individual which need de-
velopment.

A major function of Social
Council is to stimulate one of the
most important of these "other
aspects," the social life of the
college. A school can progress

To begin to cope with such
a challenge, Christian Associa-
tion must accept the responsi-
bility and implications of a defi-
nite leadership that is, however,
sensitive to the obvious, and
to the subtle, needs of the cam-
pus. This acceptance of leader-
ship responsibility will include
the facing of that "bug-a-boo"

of all leaders not having 100%

student agreement on most
campus issues. But theneedfor
direct and effective action with-
in the terms of a cabinet's un-
derstanding of the needs of the

We, both cabinet and student
body, should examine our own

necessities and then not hesi-

GRACE WINN

The purpose of the Agnes
Scott Christian Association as I
envision it is to encourage the
growth in Christian maturity of
each member of the campus
community. Its function is dif-
ferent from that of the Church
because it is a campus or-
ganization concerned with stu-
dents.

But in its concern with stu-
dents, it must lift our sights be-
yond the routine of college study
and organization to a facing of
the real decisions and action de-
manded of us by life. As the
constitutional purpose states,
Christian Association attempts
to do this by a program of ac-
tion, study, and worship.

One of the most exciting parts
of the program of Christian As-
sociation this year has been the
initiation of new service pro-
jects. I would like to see this
attitude continued as we keep
in touch with needs, especially
in the community nearest to the
campus, and establish pro-
grams directed toward these
needs.

We should encourage in-
creased participation in service
projects and plan so that peo-
ple who are too busy with such
activities as Blackfriars and
Athletic Association to partici-
pate regularly may share their
special abilities on occasions.

I would like C.A. to become
aware of campus problems such
as employee relations and the
need for increased scholarships
to allow students of different
backgrounds to enter Agnes
Scott. There are many oppor-
tunities for student participa-
tion in conferences and in pro-
jects during vacations and sum-
mer, sponsored by the YMCA,
churches, human relations
groups, etc. One cabinet mem-
ber should be in charge of re-
cruiting interested students for
such opportunities

summer projects might be
available from student govern-
ment or such community or-
ganizations as Rotary Club. The

APRIL 7, 1966

PAGE 7

Editor Of The Profile

I suppose
everyone else is
as tired as I am
of reading elec-
tion articles that
say only
"Every-
thing's great.
Let's keep up the
good work." It
is a used and
unimagina-
tive thought, but
one that I wish
to slip in here at

ANN ROBERTS

other way to express my feelings about
PROFILE'S progress.

I remember the paper of my freshman

year an esoteric complaint and gossip

sheet for an in-group. I am extremely grate-
ful to editors Keenan and Guest for their ef-
forts and success in making the PROFILE a
true newspaper, and I am proud of the part I
have played in this improvement.

Now that the PROFILE has become a de-
cent journalistic example, I want to make it
excellent in its class a publication of dis-
tinction beyond the campus and of influence
on the campus.

I propose innovations as well as continu-
ing improvement in the three basic areas
which I feel characterize any newspaper.

1. Mechanics: Writing and Makeup. Make-
up and, to a lesser degree, writing are
relatively unimportant to the average read-
er. These factors affect a reader rather
subtly but are no less important for it. I
hope to improve steadily PROFILE writing
and style through more careful proofreading.
I am also aware of improvements that can
be made in typographical errors, headlines,
pictures, and general appearance.

2. Coverage and Attitude. Perhaps you
have noticed in recent issues increased em-
phasis on reviews of events, rather than
simply the announcement of their coming.
The proper role of a newspaper is to be
merely neither a bulletin board nor a review,
but a combination of the best of both. I
want the PROFILE to be such a combina-
tion; its news, before and after, must be
news in depth. That news should not be only
campus news but coverage that points out
Agnes Scott not as a world, but as part of
the world.

But the PROFILE needs to increase its
on-campus coverage. Of course, the staff
itself must be more alert and active in find-
ing news. However, increased responsibili-
ty must lie with the campus community. Lead-
ers would look naturally for support and
coverage to the paper as I want it to be. A
newspaper is the logical means of communi-
cation of news and opinion for all those it
serves.

And I want the PROFILE to serve all, as
a school, not merely a student, newspaper.
I want very much to see increased partici-
pation and response from faculty and ad-
ministration. As we will attempt to cover
and comment on all phases of college, es-
pecially Agnes Scott college, life and thought,
so all aspects of that life should look to us.

3. Policy. Rapid radio and television
coverage has lessened the importance of
front-page headlines for commercial news-
papers; similarly, a paper on a campus such

as this, a campus with a highly developed
grapevine, seldom finds a "scoop."

For both commercial papers and the PRO-
FILE therefore, the editorial page is in-
creasingly important. I can make only one
promise regarding editorial policy of a
newspaper under my editorship: it will not
necessarily represent consensus opinion.
The purpose of press opinion is more to
stimulate than to mirror.

Policy will continue to be decided by the
editorial staff and can deserve no definite
label. I believe that our support this year
of both the war in Vietnam and represent-
tive-elect Julian Bond, stands considered
opposing by some minds, represents our
open attitude. I wish to maintain this open-
ness, a willingness to change if necessary,
in official PROFILE opinions, always en-
couraging, even seeking, other voices, in our
letters column.

I want to carry out these ideas for the
PROFILE because I enjoy journalism and
because I want the PROFILE to reflect
better the qualities of Agnes Scott. Ever
a mainstay of democracy, a free, respon-
sible, and excellent press is most appropriate
in such a college community that strives for
freedom, responsibility, and excellence in all
fields.

A college
newspaper is an
important part
of any campus.

Because the
paper is read not
only by the stu-
dent body, but
also by people
outside of the
immediate col-
lege community,
it should be a
represen-
tative and balan-
ced publication.

This includes
adequate and re-
liable news
coverage, plus a constructive editorial poli-
cy. There should be an emphasis on actual
news at other schools as well as Agnes Scott,
making the paper informative instead of
being merely an instrument of expression.

It is especially important at a small col-
lege that the paper not only should reflect
the ideas of the college, but should also
bring new ideas into it.

In the past two years the PROFILE, often
operating under the handicap of a small
staff, has improved tremendously. I think
it can continue to improve.

I have worked on the PROFILE since my
freshman year at Agnes Scott, and I think
that as editor I could continue to make the
PROFILE a better paper. I would like the
chance to try.

Roach Seeks Position
As NSA Coordinator

HELEN ROACH

A student is a responsible in-
dividual, responsible not only to
himself but to his campus, his
community, his nation and his
world. The purpose of the Unit-
ed States National Student As-
sociation is to encourage the

American student to become
more aware of his responsibili-
ties and to provide channels
through which he can involve
himself with these responsibili-
ties. In meeting this purpose
NSA serves as an exchange and
communications center for or-
ganizations from across the
nation.

The function of the NSA co-
ordinator is to work to accom-
plish NSA's purpose on his own
campus and to serve as a link
between the organizations on his
campus and the National Asso-
ciation. He serves his campus
as a voting representative to
the National Student Congress
whose legislation dealing with
political and social issues ser-
ves to give the student com-
munity an effective voice in
concerns of national and inter-
national importance.

On the local level the NSA
co-cordinator should work with
the student government and
existing organizations on cam-
pus to insure the student ade-
quate voice in situations on
campus which affect his life as
a student. He should be the
means of access to the library
of information collected bvNSA
concerning typical problems
encountered by student organi-
zations and various solutions
which have been used in sol-
ving them.

It is the co-ordinator's job to

dent the multiple advantages
offered him by the programs
of NSA, such as the NSA travel

Student Government
Secretary Position

LIBBA GOUD

When I first considered run-
ning for Secretary of Student
Government, everyone told me
that it was simply a high office
with very low duties. Instead
of dealing with people, I would
only be dealing with paper and
machines. Granted, there is a
considerable amount of dirty
work involved - typing, mimeo-
graphing, writing letters and
minutes. But that is not the
only type of work open to the
secretary. Her job has tre-
mendous possibilities for con-
tributing creatively to campus
life.

She is the main liaison be-
tween Rep Council and the stu-
dent body, and can develop
greatly her role as a liaison
between Rep Council and facul-
ty. A possible and very bene-
ficial addition to her duties
would be ths chance to attend
meetings of the administrative
committee as an interpreter of
Rep Council policies and the
ideas expressed by members
in the formation of the policies.

She could also write up Rep
Council's important activities
for publication in the PROFILE
each week to keep the students
in touch with their govern-
ment.

Communication is such an
important function in a repre-
sentative government, and in a
small college such as Agnes
Scott there is no reason why
every student and faculty mem-
ber cannot know what student
government is doing. The sec-
retary's job is to see that they
are informed and that Rep
Council is informed of their
reactions.

It is an office of considerable
responsibility, but it is re-
sponsibility which I am willing
to and would like to accept.
Paper work may mean a couple
less bridge hands in the Hub,
but that is such a small price
to pay for such a great oppor-
tunity.

Vice President Of
Student Government

The office of Vice-President
of Representative Council is a
newly created position of stud-
ent government. The officer to
be chosen in the coming elec-
tions will to a great extent de-
termine the effectiveness of the
office. It will be a job of crea-
tivity, experimentation, and re-
sponsibility, for she must find
the way in which the Vice-
President will best function to
serve Rep Council and the stu-
dent body. It will be a role

calling for organizational abili-
ties, imagination, and enthus-
iasm. She will be depended up-
on to bring a working know-
ledge of student government to
all her decisions and also to
exercise thoughtful maturity in
her actions.

The organizational respon-
sibilities and chances for cre-
ativity are the facets of this
office which interest me the
most. I feel that I am capable
of effectively carrying out the
duties of this office which have
been set up by re-organization

committee and Rep. Council.

I worked closely with the or-
ganization of Fall retreat last
spring in the financial end
through my duties as treasurer
of student government. Or-
ganizing this retreat is the type
of work that I enjoy and also
that I feel myself able to carry
out efficiently. Also, if elect-
ed, I plan to give much time
and consideration to the coor-
dinating of the committees of
Rep Council. As a link between
the officers and members of
Rep Council and each commit-
tee I would do my best to help
these groups to operate smooth-
ly, to be influential in the area
of student life which they were
created to benefit, and to func-
tion in a concise, business-like
fashion.

The position of editor of the
Handbook is another of the big
undertakings the vice-president
will tackle. I would accept this
job as a challenge and do my
best to edit carefully and wise-
ly the changes, as well as to see
that the ambigious sections of
the present handbook are re-
fined and stated in clearer
terms.

The connection the Vice-
President will have with orien-
tation committee also interests
me a great deal. And if elect-
ed I would look forward to this
additional duty.

As a candidate for the office
of Vice-President I feel we
have much to look forward to in
the coming year. I anticipate a
further emphasis on acade-
mics. I also feel Rep Council
should do a great deal toward
evaluating its place in student
government activities beyond
its own campus and in student
life on its own campus.

Derrick Seeks
Office Of SG
Treasurer

I wish to be elected to the of-
fice of Treasurer of Student
Government for several rea-
sons. First, because of the op-
portunity it would give me to
serve in Representative Coun-
cil. I consider Representative
Council the basic and funda-
mental organization upon which
the student government of Agnes
Scott is built. With its initiat-
ing and directing powers it is
able to change, modify, and bet-
ter the activities and life of the
campus.

It also serves as a vital link
between the student population
and the administration and fac-
ulty. I would like to take a
part in the responsibility of rep-
resenting other students in ere-

ating and choosing roles for
the college and student body
to play.

I think that in any organiza-
tion such as Representative
Council there is a great oppor-
tunity for those who hold a posi-
tion of leadership to direct the
thinking of others and to carry
a larger share of responsibility
and problems. I would like to
serve as Treasurer in order to
undertake to solve some of these
problems.

In this past year the atmos-
phere of the campus has been
to seek a greater awareness of
its responsibility to look out-
side itself. I would like to be
a part of furthering its goal. I
think exchanges of students with
other colleges which are simi-
lar to Agnes Scott in order to
share problems and solutions,
as well as those which are un-
like this college to obtain a
new perspective would be very
good.

I think we need to revitalize
organizations if possible to
which we and other colleges
are members or to seek dif-
ferent groups to work with in
order to tie ourselves to other
colleges in cooperative efforts.

I would bring to this office a
great desire to work and an in-
terest in the affairs of the
school. In the management of
the financial affairs I would
maintain order and precise-
ness. I would strive to keep
the cooperation which has exist-
ed in the past with the treasur-
ers and business managers of
other campus organizations. I
would very much like to serve
the campus in this capacity.

Perhaps the most important
aspect of a strong and effective
student government is its rela-
tion to the individual student
and, in turn, each student's in-
terest and concern for the prin-
ciples and policies of Student
Government. The primary
channel through which this mu-
tual involvement arises is the
Judicial Council. Having ser-
ved on the council for two years,
I have become acutely aware
of the necessity of enthusiastic
and interested members of the
council to carry the understand-
ing of the policies to the stu-
dents; for without understanding
no interest or concern can exist
within the student body.

The experience I have gain-
ed on Judicial Council in an ef-
fort to make our government as
effective as possible has en-
couraged me to seek the office
of Secretary of the council.
While I have enjoyed my years
on the board, I would like to
serve in an even more respon-
sible position.

often fall into the trap of think-
ing Christian Association only
as a board of social work. It
seems, however, that there is
also a profound need on cam-
pus for a speaking to the
psychological and to the
spiritual. One means of ac-
complishing this is beginning
to be discussed this quarter
through :h2 framework of In-
terfaith Council: the possibi-
lities of having a counseling,
campus chaplain.

I feel that the continuation
of this discussion as a major
consideration of Christian As-
sociation is obligatory. There
are, of course, many aspects
and responsibilities involved in
having a campus chaplain which
the administration and student
body will have to consider and
evaluate before final action is
taken; but it is the responsi-
bility of Christian Association,
I think, to sustain the continua-
tion of such an examination.

There is, now, a great lack
of looking beyond our own cam-
pus situation - both in time and
Id location. We, the students,
seem to have assigned ultimate
values and concern to relative-
ly insignificant matters of
academia and legality. For this
reason, I believe that an exam-
ination of the CA membership
in the international YWCA is
necessary for the entire cam-
pus.

There is a great avenue
open through the YWCA and
through the World University
Service for our recognizing and
responding to world-wide stu-
dent need. The moving to al-

issuing notices but also the re-
sponsibility of holding a major

ly accept the added duties of this
position which involve her in
many other integral aspects of

For these reasons I am run-
ning for Secretary of Judicial.
I am aware of the time and re-
sponsibility demanded by this
office, and I am eager to devote
the best I have in fulfilling these
duties.

System and to her fellow stu-
dents.

The individual is the pri-
mary concern of the Judicial
Council. A successful Honor
System does not depend only on
a Judicial Board. The success
of an Honor System depends on
each individual member of the
Student Body and the aware-
ness that each student has of
the part that she has in making
an Honor System a success.

Having served on Judicial
Council for two years, I am
aware of the vital role that it
plays at Agnes Scott. I know
the responsibilities that the
position of Secretary of Judicial
Council involves, and I feel
that 1 have the interest and
time to devote to the duties of
this office.

ALLYN SMOAK

The Judicial Council of Agnes
Scott is not merely a board to
hand out campuses, call downs,
and other sorts of penalties to
the Student Body; it is a board
that deals with honor and is
more of an Honor Council.

The Honor System is our way
of life here at Agnes Scott, but
it also prepares us students to
assume our places as responsi-
ble citizens in other communi-
ties after leaving this campus.

The Judicial Council tries to
help the Student Body better un-
derstand the Honor System by
which each member is expect-
ed to live and the responsibili-
ty that each has to an Honor

In the course of an acade-
mic year a Judicial represen-
tative becomes aware of the re-
sponsibility the board has to the

is more easily fulfilled than is
the latter, especially with a
board like Judicial, the wear-

Christian Association

is vital to our affective func-
tioning as human beings in the
world today.

The facing of the campus
challenge, however, does not
seem to me to call for im-
mediate and all-inclusive turn-
over. There are many areas in
which a continuation of work
and ideas already initiated
would seem to be most effec-
tive for our campus program.
Of course, we must here as-
sume the willingness to be re-
evaluating the work always and
the need to be open to change
in this program when it be-
comes necessary.

Som: 1 of the areas which seem
to me to warrant a continu-
ing sensitive use are service
projects, both those initiated by
us and those initiated by WUS
and the YWCA; the Intercol-
legiate Council, one of the al-
ready operating means open to
us to extend our concerns and
ideas to other campuses; chapel
programs, as presentations of
relevant discussion and speak-
ers as well as a possible time
for worship; book discussion
groups; world awareness; and
the Complin-CAR program, as
liason between CA cabinet and
the campus.

In order to be able to parti-
cipate in rhe programs of the
YWCA, WUS, and our own cam-
pus projects, a complete
examination of the pledge-bud-
get system is necessary. The
increasing difficulties of such
a financial arrangement must
be realized and answered in
one or a combination of some
of the following th -ee ways:
the reeducation of the campus
to taking an effective financial

part in the program of Chris-
tian Association, the reduction
of the budget, or the becoming
part of the student treasury bud-
get. I feel that the validity of
student projects should not be
compromised by a reduction of
the budget and that the new cabi-
net with the campus must decide
the most effective m eans for the
support of student work through

If I am elected to the presi-
dency of Christian Association,
I shall endeavor to initiate the
discussion of these proposals,
to continue the work in exist-
ing vital areas, and to be open
to the suggestions and needs of
the student body.

insight of other students would
be deepened if those who had
participated in such programs
shared their experiences in hub
discussions, chapels, complins,
or job jamborees.

Even though we are students,
we are enough a part of our
pragmatic age that we some-
times find it easier to act than
to think. I would like to ask
each cabinet member to devote
one half hour each week simply
to thinking about what she should
do with Christian Association.
I believe the effect would be
amazing. I would like to see a
large part of the Christian As-
sociation program directed to-
ward study of vital issues, hope-
fully leading to individual de-
cision.

As liberal arts students we
are all involved in at least a
partial study of the nature of the
age in which we live. I would

The best opportunity of com-
munication is for the student
body to see how the board ac-
tually operates, to see its rep-
resentatives in action. Pro-
gress has been made this year
in making Judicial more
"open." It has eliminated the
closed eye vote and substituted
roll call vote. This, I think, is
progress away from the secret-
ness and exclusiveness with
which the board is often asso-
ciated. This is only one step;

others can be taken ones that

make the board more realis-
tic, without discarding its ideals.
I hope that in the coming year
many such steps will be taken.

As secretary of Judicial I
can give the time required for
the official duties of the posi-
tion. This office will allow me
to serve as a member of the
board, giving my opinion if it
should be useful. I would like
to see the Judicial Board more
open, more realistic, and ser-
ving as secretary I would be
given the opportunity to help
see that this is accomplished if
the Board also feels that it would
be desirable.

For the Judicial Board to be
as functional as it should be,
idealism should be combined
with realism. It should be rea-
listic and creative in its judg-
ments. It should remember
that "Four things belong to a
judge" but that a Judicial
member is also responsible for
communication with the student
body. The Judicial Board should
not be something exclusive and
detached from the student body,
for it is only with the co-ope-
ration of the student body that
the Judicial Board and the
honor system are able to ope-
rate.

like to see forums or discus-
sion groups directed toward the
answers of Christianity to the
questions of the twentieth cen-
tury. What is the relationship
of Christianity and the basic
presuppositions of science, of
modern art and literature, of
psychology, of the American
economy. What are the deci-
sions demanded by current poli-
tics and international affairs?
I would like to have a group
participate in the Great Deci-
sions program of study of na-
tional policy. The C.A. shelf
in the library could be used to
call campus attention to crucial
articles in books and periodi-
cals.

There could be groups for
Bible study and consideration of
theological questions. We need
to study such vital personal is-
sues as the role of woman and
the effect of birth control on
sexual morality. We need to
rouse individuals to serious
thought about their vocations
before the middle of the senior
year.

As citizens of an age which is
losing the sense of mystery, we
find it harder to worship than to
think or act. I believe it is
essential for Christian Asso-
ciation to maintain an emphasis
on worship through vespers,
some complins, and some chap-
els. We should search for new
ways of worshipping as well as
using the very best of the tra-
ditional forms.

The structure of Christian
Association should emphasize
flexibility, co-operation, and
communication. Many of the
programs I have planned would
require co-operation with such

time doing the very thing I am doing now intro-
specting when there is a rapidly changing and exciting
world just beyond our doorstep.

Perhaps, a number of students feel that Agnes
Scott is not vitally related to the world community and
is not attempting to understand and become part of
the movements of our time. However, I am attempting
to speak for those who do feel this way and who would
like to cast their vote for someone who is dedicated
to improving the situation.

Although I cannot promise to complete the projects
which I might begin as student body president, there
are several specific things with which I would like to
worko Each of the efforts would involve the support
and advice of every student. I am not one of those
who delight in making a distinction between "student
body leaders" and the rest of the campus, because
I feel that every student's opinion and action are val-
uable and should be encouraged. The weight of voca-
lized student opinion could be the decisive factor in
bringing Agnes Scott into the twentieth century.

The following are several things which I would like
to see done and by no means constitute a priority
list:

1. faculty evaluations by the student body which
would give the students an opportunity to express,
anonymously, their opinions of the effectiveness of
their professors.

2. thestrengtheningof an Intercollegiate Council for
the Atlanta area which has been supported by Chris-
tian Association but by few others

3. increasing the powers and responsibilities of
Rep Council including the requirement that members
of Rep Council contact their constituencies to deter-
mine student body opinion of matters discussed by
Rep Council, and increased power of Rep Council to
speak to the administration for the student body and
to make plans not subject to administration approval.

4. an effort on the part of student government
to increase communication between the faculty and
the student body.

5. a study of the infirmary, by Rep Council to try to
discover why it is so badl

6. an updating of social policies, including abolish-
ing the Apartment Policy in an effort to provide an
environment in which women can become responsible
members of a realistic society.

7. a master calendar of events on this campus and
other campuses not subject to the approval of the
Dean of Students.

8. a student committee to bring current, controver-
sial speakers to the campus not subject to adminis-
tration approval

9. involvement in the programs of other colleges
including attendance at seminars and programs con-
cerning the student's role in the world today

10. more clearly defined functions for judicial
members

11. a Rep Council study of admission procedures
Any other proposals from the student body should be

given consideration. The 1966-67 session at Agnes
Scott can be a progressive one if you and I, as students,
take the time to consider elections carefully this year
and cast our votes for candidates who have the imagi-
nation and energy to lead Agnes Scott into involvement
in the wider world which we so often miss through our
narrowness.

will not solve the problem. Therefore, for example,
I definitely see the need for the reorganization of two
of our major organs of self-government, Judicial and
House Council, to provide for judicial regulation of
minor social infractions by the House Councils and
a Residence Council.

This will give House Council the responsibility and
structure it should rightly have, and will enable Judi-
cial Council to concern itself more with the larger
questions of the honor system and its purpose. Also,
Social Council might be re-organized to better serve
the needs of the student body.

In an academic community like Atlanta with ap-
proximately ten colleges of every size and variety,
there should be much intercollegiate exchange of
ideas and information. I would like to work again
through existing structures like Social Council,
A.A., C.A., and Arts Council to provide such commun-
ication and co-operation, and also to work to reor-
ganize Intercollegiate, if possible, having elected rep-
resentatives from the various campuses who could
exchange information about activities elsewhere in At-
lanta and could also co-ordinate and plan joint pro-
jects where such projects were feasible.

While in college, a student's primary purpose is
obviously to learn, but she should also be "gaining a
knowledge" of the outside community. The emphasis
on the arts this year has been excellent in this res-
pect. This emphasis should be affirmed and pursued
even further in the coming year so that students may
participate in the cultural opportunities that are avail-
able. Secondly, the service projects of C.A. and the
tutorial project of Curriculum Committee should be fur-
ther developed and stressed, for these offer us a real
bridge into the larger community and its needs.

FinaJly, L would like to continue the communication
and active participation in NSA that has been evident
this year. I would also like to further investigate the
possibilities of a good regional organization other than
SIASG to which we might belong.

Student government should now, I believe, cultivate
its means of communication to become more informed
and aware of the real purpose that confronts it. It
should so structure itself that it may be a means to
ends from which the whole campus may benefit.

lecturers. The Atlanta area offers much in the way of
controversial speakers, debates, etc.; which might
stimulate more interest and concern if brought to our
campus. I should also like to see Agnes Scott take a
more active part in the Atlanta college community.

This entire area involves an important question ol
jurisdiction in what areas can we as students work,
and how much authority can we exercise. This depends
a great deal on how effectively we handle that which
comes under our definite jurisdiction now. On the
basis of the maturity we have shown this year, I think
it will be an excellent opportunity to establish between
students and the administration, the specific limits of
power: and then to assume complete responsibility in
those areas which are totally student and effective ad-
vis .9Y. responsibilit y in administrative areas which di-
rectly concern us.

The second area for emphasis is that of our relation
to other educational institutions. One important as-
pect of this would be a well-planned, supported ex-
change program with other colleges. These could be
with schools not closely related in size, character, and
purpose, or with a more closely related school located
in a different geographical area-

Both of these could provide invaluable experience,
both in establishing some contact with other colleges
and in giving us an insight into Scott from a different
perspective. The Atlanta area itself provides many op-
portunities for exchange which could be utilized more of-
ten.

The off-campus organizations also provide many op-
portunities for relating to the academic circle as a
whole. SIASG, made up of southern girl's schools
which are equivalent in size to Agnes Scott, offers us
the opportunity to share similar problems and solu-
tions. SUSGA is a larger organization of a more di-
verse nature offering many opportunities for confer-
ences, etc.

NSA has a wide scope of activities which we have
not really even begun to tap: speakers, travel ser-
vice, information service, conferences etc. Moreover
it gives us a place in a large, and influential voice of
American students. There is also a possibility that
Agnes Scott might have a seat on the National Steering
Committee for the Student Congress.

However I think that an evaluation of the opportuni-
ties that each of these organizations offers us and in
turn what we can contribute to each of them, is very
essential. Then once a decision has been made of
support to one or more of these organizations, we should
live up to this support bv active participation and lead-
ership.

This is not to neglect the traditional lines of student
government. There are still many areas of student
life that need evaluation and change. I would like to
see the student services committee be broadened to
include many more areas of student life. Rule changes
are always pertinent and important in order to keep
up with changing campus life.

One thing requiring careful attention next year will
be the student treasury. It will receive a larger allot-
ment and a very conscientious reapportionment will be
needed. This will be an excellent opportunity for stu-
dents to express their opinions as to how their money
is used.

Much of the structure of student government is un-
wieldy, limited and necessitates constant change. The
reworking of this would provide a more efficient gov-
ernment with less time spent and less red tape. I
would like to re-evaluate the representation system of
Rep Council, and the role that each member should
play. I would expect hard work, careful attention to
student problems, and conscientious representation
from each of these members.

Finally, it seems important to me to express my feel-
ings about the student body's participation as a whole
in student government. Effective government does not
depend on good leaders entirely; it is "people and
ideas," for leadership is a shared responsibility, as
an elected representative, the liaison between the
student body and the administration, I would be willing
to work for those goals which the student body sets as
far as I am capable: but I would need the support and
responsibility of the students in carrying out these
goals; for the privilege of self government is a con-
tinually earned right.

I sincerely believe that the coming year will prove
to be an exciting and important one for Scott, and that
more than this, it will be a prophecy of the direction
Agnes Scott is already heading...that of mature, strong,
effective students who are vitally concerned with the
processes of higher education and the world around
them.

HOUSE PRESIDENT

Jane McCurdy

(CONTINUED FROM PAGE 5)

Reorganization was dealt with this year; and although it has
temporarily been tabled, House Councils should be structured
so as to assimilate the eventual decentralization.

The office of Chairman of -House Presidents Council has
great potentiality. Among the many new fields of influence are
inter-dorm competition and dorm improvement. The latter
could include anything from the installation of milk machines
to obtaining better washing machines and more dryers to re-
questing more showers and reliable water temperature. In this
area, of course, the Chairman would have to work closely with
the Student Services representative on Rep Council; and al-
though some ideas could not be acted upon immediately, such
improvements would be in the incipient stages.

The House President should provide a link between Rep
Council and the girls in her dorm, and she can do this only if
she is concerned with each individual and takes the time to get
to know every girl. Naturally, this is time-consuming, but it
remains the most important and the most rewarding aspect
of the House President's job.

tion of organization and flexibility we can tap a great resource
for achieving a more satisfactory and harmonious- campus life.

SIASG Convenes
On Scott Campus

The 1966 conference of the
Southern Intercollegiate Asso-
ciation of Student Governments
(SIASG) will be held at the
Agnes Scott campus April 14-
16.

The stated purpose of these
conferences is to bring the
leaders of worn en's student gov-
ernments together for the free
exchange of ideas and a conse-
quent broadening of their own
potentialities as student gov-
ernment leaders.

SIASG is run entirely by stu- ^ f

the convention. These officers
serve through the following
conference.

The annual conference is the
highlight of the year's activi-
ties. Here the business is con-
ducted, projects for the year
are adopted and discussion
groups are held.

The theme for this confer-
ence is "Something is happen-
ing!"

Dr. Wallace Alston and Dr.
Theodore Greene are the speak-
ers.

Marilyn Abendroth and Alice
Zollicoffer are the co-chair-
men and have been making many
plans for the reception of these
60-70 girls from colleges all
over the South.

A banquet scheduled for April
15 has been planned to precede
the keynote speech by Dr.
Greene. After the speech there
will be a "Hub" party be-
ginning at 8:30 p.m.

Everyone on campus is en-
couraged to come and take the
opportunity to meet these visit-
ing representatives personally.

Also, these girls will be eat-
ing all their meals in the Din-
ing Hall which should provide
an opportunity for us to infor-
mally welcome these visitors to
our campus.

Some of the colleges repre-
sented are Erskine, Mercer,
Wesleyan, Sweet Briar, Missis-
sippi State College for Women,
Coker, Centre and many more.

The representatives from
Agnes will be the newly elected
President, Secretary, and
Treasurer of Student Govern-
ment and also the Judicial
Chairman.

This is a "first" on the
Agnes Scott campus. Our school
has been represented before but
has never been the host for the
conference. Many preparations

"What is honor? A word.
What is in that word honor?
What is that honor? Air."

If Falstaff's cynicism is pen-
etrating Agnes Scott, we need to
reevaluate our sense of values.
The most cherished part of a
community of students is the re-
sponsibility and opportunity of
the students themselves to de-
velop and carry out the policies
of their community. They elect
those who work with the cam-
pus at large and with individuals
to understand and develop a
sense of honor permeating all
areas of personal and public
life.

I am running for Secretary of
Judicial to help in the revalua-
tion of Judicial Board's com-
munication with the student body
and to deal more directly with
individuals who make Judicial
necessary.

Because I believe the Rep-
resentative Council and Judical
Board provide adequate chan-
nels for student participation on
this campus, I feel the NSA co-
ordinator's specific responsi-
bility at Agnes Scott is to work,
both on her own and in conjunc-
tion with campus political or-
ganizations, to stimulate in our
students more awareness and
concern for problems in the At-
lanta community and on national
and international scales. Be-
cause this is the area of re-
sponsibility in which I feel Scott
students are most deficient, it
is the one which I, as NSA co-
ordinator would emphasize.

I would like to continue the
good line of speakers and pro-
grams which NSA has presented
in chapel this year and I would
like to provide more which
:ould be scheduled at times
)ther than chapel period.

I hope to find means to pro-
vide the Agnes Scott students
with better information as to
political and social activities
in the Atlanta area and establish
means through which these acti-
vities will be more available
to her. I would hope to work

Gillis Entertains At Gala

Miss Georgia Gillis, Class of
'65, was hostess Monday, March
28, to a gala party given at her
charming residence on South
Candler in honor of the rites
of spring.

Guests were served potato
chips, dip, frito, dip, corn
sticks, dip, and other refresh-
ing refreshments.

Those attending were Betty
Butler, Grace Winn, Anne
Rogers, Jean Jarrett, Debbie
Rosen, your editor, Donna Haw-
ley, Joan Kiker, Sarah Uzzell,
Judy Ahrano, and Jan Gaskell.

Other guests were Susan Tho-
mas, Susan Landrum, Bunny
Foster, Malinda Snow, Susan
Ledford, and would you believe
Mary (CA) Brown?

Your roving editor overhead
(among other things^) the fol-

lowing snatches of scintillating
conversation:

Susan Thomas: "In Milan,
Tennessee, the sewage peaks at
8:49 a.m. when the factories
flush.'

Debbie Rosen: "It's a walkie-
lookie, which is a creepie-
peepie in the World Book En-
cyclopedia."

Susan Thomas to a here-un-
named board president: "Bot-
toms up, sweetie."

Malinda Snow: "Since we
can't take our sinuses to Ari-
zona..."

know that there are at least
two men in New York City
with the same number of hairs
on their head?"

zooka!

bringing seminars to Scott
which would personally involve
the student in discussion out-
side of classroom, on pertinent
issues.

As NSA co-ordinator I would
want to make available and ex-
pose to students material, put
out by other student organiza-
tions not represented at Agnes
Scott, especially from contro-
versial groups, so that while
we cannot have the experience
of actual exposure to such
groups, we won't be so naive
as to be ignorant of their exis-
tance and the trends which they
indicate.

I believe it would be neces-
sary for the NSA co-ordinator
to conduct a poll to determine
the opinion of the majority on
campus concerning issues
which will be voted on at con-
gress and thus for her to ade-
quately represent the campus in
her vote.

I am concerned that students
are satisfied with grumbling
about classes with which they
are dissatisfied. As students
our first responsibility is to
secure the best education pos-
sible and I would seek means
to stimulate more academic
responsibility in this area. I
believe channels exist or can
be made available through
which effective communication
of an evaluative nature could
take place between faculty and
student.

a vital role on the ASC cam-
pus* I want to serve as NSA co-
ordinator here and work to
more fully develop the poten-
tials of this program.

other campus organizations as
rep council, N.S.A., curriculum
committee, the vocations office,
and social council. I would like
to see many people who are not
cabinet members become invol-
ved in the planning of Christian
Association programs. An ex-
ample would be a rotating com-
mittee to suggest topics and
speakers for chapels.

I would like Christian Asso-
ciation to become aware of the
activities of off-campus church
groups and religious organiza-
tions in which Agnes Scott stu-
dents are involved. As the cam-
pus interdenominational reli-
gious association we should en-
courage communication among
such groups. The ministers of
churches attended by students
should be invited to visit the
campus at times other than the
Meet-the-Ministers Tea.

I would like to see us move
toward having a full-time cam-
pus chaplin. This would neces-
sitate great flexibility, since a
chaplin would take over some
present functions of C.A. cabi-
net and require some new ones.
The carrying out of the pro-
grams I have outlined requires
money, and the money-raising
of C.A. must be improved. One
suggestion is individual solici-
tation of each student for pled-
ges in the fall.

Most of my other ideas are
about continuing the fine pro-
grams of this year. I hope
that Christian Association
would effect the entire campus
community. But I would like to
see many activities, such as
small discussion groups, aimed
at a specific group likely to be
most interested. I believe this
would be more effective in the
long run than a constant attempt
to reach everyone with every-
thing. I would hope that Chris-
tian Association could create
an atmosphere in which we
would all become more aware of
each other as persons, with in-
dividual contributions, desires,
and needs.

Many of the ideas in this ar-
ticle come from other people
who have suggested them tome.
If you have a suggestion or com-
ment, please tell me. Whoever
you elect as officers of Chris-
tian Association, creative ideas
will be of use next year.

Glamour

Picks
Croswell

Ellen Croswell, a sophomore
at Agnes Scott, has been chosen
by Glamour magazine as a
semi-finalist in its contest for
the ten best-dressed girls on
U.S. college campuses. Twen-
ty-five semi-finalists have been
chosen from among 346 entries
all over the nation.

Ellen received a telegram
last week telling her she had
won and sending her a release
to sign. This certifies that she
will not participate in any ad-
vertising nor give her name
for any products without Glam-
our's approval.

As soon as each of the girls
has sent in her release, the
final decision will be made. El-
len thinks this should be some-
time late this week or the early
part of next week.

In April and/or May the ten
winners will be flown to the lo-
cation for photographing the
August College Issue. Ellen
says this could be any where in
the world.

If she is chosen as a final-
ist, however, Ellen, along with
the other nine girls will be
given a "fabulous two week
fling" in New York City. Some-
time from the end of May to the
first of June the girls will visit
cosmetic specialists, visit
fashion departments, give a
fashion show, receive gifts
from different manufacturers,
and enjoy the many opportuni-
ties for dining and attending the
theatre in New York.

Although the semi-finalists
from the different schools are
not announced to each other,
Ellen knows of one other among
the twenty-five from Converse.

She says she "naturally is
excited", and wants to express
her appreciation publicaUy for
her "managers". Kathy Cen-
torbe and B.A 0 Humphreys help-
ed with pictures, make-up,
clothes, and filling out the ap-
plications, Ellen says if she is
to be quoted on anything, she
wants to thank these two girls
whom she calls "great guys".

just so far without an active
social life. Agnes Scott is at a
point in its development where
a realistic and sophisticated ap-
proach is needed in this area.

This year Athletic Associa-
tion and Social Council have
taken steps in this direction
by initiating two dance week-
ends instead of one dance. Th?
success of the winter dance
week end and the expected suc-
cess of the spring one have done
a great deal to change the image
of "The Agnes Scott School
Dance."

Next year Social Council will
be solely in charge of dance
weekends. I'd like to see this
image dispelled still further by
having larger well-known bands
and entertainment which will
be attractions in themselves.
Eventually, Social Council
should be able to arrange con-
certs by popular entertainers.

Many girls' schools have
Student Centers, such as the Hub
in which the boys of surround-
ing schools feel very much at
home. These boys don't neces-
sarily date particular girls but
come to enjoy the afternoon or
night, play bridge, etc., and
maybe meet a girl they would
enjoy dating. If this situation
existed at Scott, it would help
alleviate the problem of blind
dating.

As a starting point, fraterni-
ties could be invited to drop in
after their meetings on Wednes-
day night or Friday or Satur-
day afternoon. This invitation
could be informally issued by

FROM PAGE 6)
girls who date in the different
fraternities. The Hub has bridge
tables, a pool table, and a T.V.,
and a juke box could be add-
ed. This situation would be con-
dusive to the informal gather-
ings which are characteristic of
a co-ed school.

Social Council has an appoint*-
member who writes articles for
the PROFILE. I would like to
see this position enlarged to en-
compass national publications
such as magazines and other
news media. This would consist
of submitting articles of parti-
cular interest in which Scott
students are involved, such as
Affirmation: Vietnam.

These are a few of the things
I would like to see Social Coun-
cil accomplish. It should be a
dynamic, vital organization,
willing to try new things and pro-
gressing with the rest of Agnes
Scott.

honor. Therefore, the criterion
of personality is de-emphasiz-
ed, and the electorate partici-
pates in the rare situation of
grass-roots democracy in its
privilege of policy-making.

However, I hasten to add that
this article does not voice a po-
litical platform; the nature of
Judicial work renders formula-
tion of such a platform impos-
sible. The chief function of the
Judicial Council is to act in
specific situations to which it
comes with only immediate
foreknowledge. With this in
mind, the Board must maintain

an inner tension the healthy

sort of tension that will enable
it to contend with a difficult
situation at a given moment.

The question then, is how the
Judicial Council can maintain
the spirit of readiness that al-
lows it to cope with the prob-
lems immediately confronting
it. Such a spirit must first be
exemplified by the individual
Council representative in
fact, for the Judicial Council to
be most effective, an alertness
that can successfully encounter
situations involving Honor must
pervade the entire campus. .
However, it is the responsibili-
ty of the Judicial Council to set
the tone, through the individual
representatives, that will unite
the Board itself within the larg-
er framework of a student body
that is willing to support its
decisions.

The basis of this sort of spir-
it is inherent in the type of stu-
dents found at Agnes Scott.
These students hold the ideal
of Honor in high regard, but are
realistic in their approach to
the responsibility involved as
they confront its intrinsic prob-
lems. Such responsibility was
demonstrated during the 1964-
65 session when administra-
tion, faculty, and students en-
gaged in discussion leading to
subsequent modification of the
Policy Regarding the Use of Al-
coholic Beverages.

However, it seems unfortu-
nate that tli is atmosphere of
lively questioning should be ex-
tinguished as soon as a policy
is altered. Should it not be the
responsibility of the Judicial
Council to sustain this spirit?
This spirit of healthy tension,
of an active, vital sense of in-
terpretation and execution, will
prevent stagnation as the Judi-
cial Council engages in the ser
ious matter of points of Honor
within the framework of Agnes
Scott and the ideals of its Hon-
or System.

In its efforts to maintain this
spirit, the Judicial Council

should be self-reliant yet sen-
sitive to the trend of student
opinion. For the representa-
tive this involves loyalty to
oneself, to one's friends, and
to the college with regard to
points of Honor. Such individ-
ual acumen can provide the
deep understanding necessary
among the members of the
Board; furthermore, it can
strengthen the relationship be-
tween the Board and the Stu-
dent Body itself.

1 freely admit that I have dealt
in this article largely with gen-
eralities, and yet I feel very
strongly that these generalities
are pertinent to any discussion
of the question of Honor. The
establishment of such basic
considerations is a pro-requi-
site for maintaining the flexi-
bility needed by such a body as
the Judicial Council.

As Dr. Theodore Greene told
the Student Body during Honor
Emphasis Week in 1964, honor
is ineffable: it can be talked
about but not defined, it must be
realized first-hand. As candi-
date for the office of Judicial
Chairman for 1966-67, I am
ready to accept the responsi-
bility of guiding die interpreta-
tion and administration of the
Honor System in student life at
Agnes Scott, the responsibility
which I have discussed in the
previous paragraphs.

Mary Barnett

(CONTINUED FROM PAGE 6)
This year the board intro-

duced several new programs
such as the Self-Defense Course
and the Red Cross Blood Drive
to associate the college com-
munity more directly with the
life outside of classes and
homework. Thus AA has in-
creased the formerly too nar-
row scale of activities to include
programs which deal with par-
ticipation other than between
teams.

In this sense, Athletic As-
sociation's new approach reach-
es out towards a more unlimit-
ed resource for its material.
Although the maintenance of
individual as well as team
sports must be emphasized and
enjoyed as ever, it is neces-
sary not to be completely con-
tent with the way things are
and instead to seek and ex-
plore many new possibilities
both on and off of the campus.

As President of Athletic As-
sociation I would like to see
the establishment of intra-dorm
competition especially in the
less played sports such as golf,
archery and softball. I would
like to see exhibitions present-
ed by leading athletes and a
more extensive program of vis-
iting speakers brought to our
campus.

In addition, there should be
several playdays and tourna-
ments which take place at Agnes
Scott to promote a better feel-
ing and closer association be-
tween our college and sur-
rounding schools.

In addition, 1 would like to
see more of the money acquir-
ed at sweatshirt and do-nut
sales to be used in securing
new trophies and a better tro-
phy case. I would like AA to
introduce the awarding of a
new trophy to be presented to
a girl elected "athlete of the
year" by a panel of the AA
officers and board members,
physical education department
and sport managers.

Along this line, if more mon-
ey could be raised through new
activities other than hub par-
ties, such as car washes or
magazine sales. This extra
money could be used to buy new
trophies as well as badly need-
ed bicycles. Enough money
would enable us to get bicycles
"built for two," something a
little different for students.

Also we could construct a
permanent scoreboard on the
hockey field for any sports
which take place at any time of
the year. During the winter
months ice skating parties could
be organized and. for the snow
when it arrives, AA could buy
sleds for the students to use as
they do bicycles in the spring.

I feel also that softball and
soccer should be introduced
and participated in as much as

the sports already offered.
Teams should be organized in
both these activities and soft-
ball especially could become a
main attraction of the annual
Spring AA picnic, at which time
our own world series could be
held between the top standing
teams.

AA has expanded its program
to include so many areas that
everyone can now find an oppor-
tunity to give of herself either
for her personal enjoyment (as
through sports) or for becoming
a better person (as through the
Blood Drive). Here, essen-
tially, lies the purpose of Ath-
letic Association on our cam-
pus. AA does not limit the ad-
vantages it holds for every stu-
dent if only the individual
will reach out for them.

With the close association to
all the other boards, Athletic
Association can enlarge its of-
ferings and eventually create
an unifying program which
would bring many facets of life
into everyday activities, avail-
able to all at any time.

As President of AA, I feel
that I am qualified to introduce
new programs as well as ini-
tiating a movement towards one
hundred percent participation
in something outside of a strict
academic schedule. However,
these plans can evolve only
from a strong AA Board which
shares the responsibility and
the desire to work with the of-
ficers in securing new channels
through which every individual
might benefit.

4) More recreational activi-
ties, such as skating and bow-
ling parties, ping-pong tourna-
ments, should be provided.

5) Interdorm competition
should be organized on an in-
formal basis with competition
in field events such as sack
races, etc.

6) The gym should be opened
at night with all facilities avail-
able for student use.

7) Physical fitness and gym-
nastics classes should be set
up in a manner similar to the
self-defense course.

In addition to being able to
devote all of my time to A.A.,
I feel that my experience as
treasurer this year has given
me valuable knowledge about
the workings of the board and
the manner in which the above
programs could best be de-
veloped. I would appreciate the
opportunity to serve as Presi-
dent of Athletic Association and
to help it serve the needs of the
students.

vitalized her this year, but the
united efforts of us all will
mark the degree of achieve-
ment. As we as individuals
continually find ourselves in
need of self-reevaluation, so
are we as a campus community
in need of self -exam ination. We
have accomplished much this
year from changing of policies
to expanding of campus partic-
ipation in the arts. We must
use this firm foundation.

It is now necessary to con-
sider those things which we
have not achieved and to open
our minds to catch new ideas.
From this will come our new
challenges. A living organism
must continue to take nourish-
ment or it will wither. It is
the job of all of us to see that
Agnes Scott will continue this
healthy growth. I am seeking
the office of Secretary of the
Student Government because I
believe in the positive future of
Agnes Scott and because I want
to show my willingness to do my
part.

The office of secretary is an
integral part of campus life for
it provides a functional channel
of communication between Rep-
resentative Council and stu-
dents, between students and oth-
er students, between adminis-
tration and studenrs, and be-
tween Agnes Scott and the larg-
er community. The secretary
must be alert to every pulse
of the campus: from discus-
sions at student meetings, to
brain-storming at committee
meetings, to the private sug-
gestions of students.

I feel that past experience
gives me good qualifications
for secretary of Student Gov-
ernment. I have found satis-
faction in the challenge of the
position of secretary in the
past. Here at Scott my work
as secretary-treasurer of the
freshman class and as a sopho-
more member of Representa-
tive Council has given m? op-
portunities for a fuller realiza-
tion of the work of Student Gov-
ernment and its elasticity and
increasing possibilities.

My experience as a member
of Dance Group, the James
Ross McCain Memorial steer-
ing committee, the PROFILE
staff, as chairman of the Sopho-
more-Freshman Party, and my
work with orientation, Black
Cat and Junior Jaunt have enab-
led me to have contact with
many different aspects of cam-
pus life.

I believe that I am capable
of handling this office efficient-
ly and effectively and I would
like to have the opportunity to
serve our campus.

more successful since the
topics were very interesting and
well-planned. I think discus-
sions or demonstrations by ex-
perts in make-up and hair
styles, interior decorating, flo-
wer arranging, er:. are valid
and fun; and 1 wouldn't elimate
them. Perhaps a survey criti-
cism would help; perhaps having
them at the very beginning of
quarters when people have more
time would attract more in-
terest.

Une student suggested that all
of the Hub activities be co-
ordinated solely by Social Coun-
cil. I think this has very good
possibilities. This would mean
that Social Council would place
a calendar in the Hub some-
time after th^ Retreat when the
major activities for the year had
been assigned dates.

The dates already chosen
would be blacked out and groups
planning Hub activities through-
out the year could reserve Hub
space by putting the event on the
calendar. The basis would be
first come, first serve just as
always; but the system would
take some of the burden off
Miss Scandrett and would save
time for the boards.

I am aware of the work that
the office of president entails
and can honestly say that I will
enjoy this work and give my time
to it. My two years experience
on Social Council, tftt last of
which I served as secretary,
and my experience as social
Chairman r my class last year
well-qualify me for this posi-
tion.

Administrative Committee
Passes Two New Policies

There are two new policies
in effect for the campus begin-
ning this quarter. These are
the new car policy and the ex-
tended time limit for girls with-
out dates.

Sophomores who have an
overall 1.0 average are allowed
to keep cars on campus. Ann
Glendinning, chairman of the
committee which formulated
this policy, said that she thinks
its passage is a "fine exam-
ple of the good communications
between Rep Council and the
administration.'

Rules Committee originated
the policy concerning extended
time limit. The need for this
change was evidenced especial-

ly because of the new car poli-
cy.

Under the old policy the soph-
omores needed a junior or a
senior as a chaperone to ride
in a car at night without a
date. Under the new policy
sophomores are adequate
chaperons for themselves and
for freshmen.

Three girls riding in the At-
lanta area and two in Decatur
may now stay out until 11:45
any night. Girls walking in De-
catur, however, must still be
in by 11:00 p.m.

Linda Richter, of Rules Com-
mittee, said that she thinks this
is a mature way of handling the
chaperonage.

Famous Novelist
On Scott Campus

Eudora Welty, celebrated no-
velist and short story writer,
has been on the Agnes Scott
campus yesterday and today.
On Wednesday, she spoke dur-
ing Convocation on "Faulkner's
Use of Local Color." Miss
Welty then had lunch with Eng-
lish majors at 12:30.

At 8:15 p.m. she presented
readings from her work. This
lecture was followed by

a reception in Rebekah.

Thursday, the author will hold
a final "Discussion on Creative
Writing" at 9:30 a.m.

Born in Jackson, Mississippi
on April 13, 1909, Miss Welty
attended Mississippi State Col-
lege for Women from 1925 to
1927. In 1929 she received her
BA fromthe University of Wis-
consin and for the next two
years studied advertising at Co-
lumbia University.

The novelist's first short
story was published in 1936
and her first book, A CURTAIN
OF GREEN, appeared in 1941.
This book, a collection of short
stories, was hailed by the cri-
tics.

Miss Welty has been a con-
tributor to divers magazines,
including HARPER'S BAZAAR,
THE ATLANTIC MONTHLY,
and THE NEW YORKER. In
fact, one of her stories, "A
Piece of News!" can be found
in the 101 English book,
UNDERSTANDING FICTION.

Among Miss Welty' s many
honors are the O. Henry Me-
morial Prize for short stories
in 1942 and 1943; a $1000 prize
from the American Academy of
Arts and Letters in May, 1944;
and the Howells Medal, donat-
ed every five years for excel-
lence in fiction, for THE PON-
DER HEART in 1955.

In 1958 this renowned writer
was an Honorary Consultant in
American Letters of the Li-
brary of Congress. She is cur-

Al um Weekend Features
Blackfriars., Cocktail Party

If you happen to come bound-
ing out of your dorm this Fri-
day evening in your overalls
and curlers and are surprised
to encounter numerous ladies,
both young and old, reminiscing
about radiator trouble in Rebe-
kah or monkey business in Main,
you'll know it's Alumnae Week-
end, April 22 and 23.

Friday, April 22, Blackfriars
alumnae will attend the Black-
friars play at 8:15 p.m. in the
Dana Theater. This presenta-
tion will be followed by a thea-
ter party featuring highlights
and humorous events of the fif-
ty years of Blackfriars. One
alumna will star with her lead-
ing man of 35 years ago in a
scene from a play they per-
formed together.

Presented Friday will be a
portrait of Frances K. Gooch,
founder of Blackfriars in 1915,
and Associate Professor of En-
glish and Teacher of Speech
from 1915 to 1951. Alumna
Meyme Curtis Tucker, 1956,
and her mother Mary Freeman
Curtis have written a tribute
to Miss Gooch, which will be
read by Mrs. Tucker. The
framed portrait of Miss Gooch
was donated by Dr. Nancy
Groseclose.

On Saturday, registration will
begin at 9 a.m. along with a tour
of the Dana Fine Arts Build-
ing. From 10 a.m. until noon,
there will be a Symposium on
Fine Arts in Gaines. Dean
Kline, Mr. Ferdinand Warren,
Mr. Richard Hensel, and Miss
Margret Trotter will lecture,
each in his or her respective
field. Then at 12:30 p.m., if
the weather permits, the faculty
members will meet the alumnae
on the colonnade for tomato
juice cocktails.

Immediately thereafter, at
12:45 p.m. will ensue the Alum-
nae Luncheon and annual meet-
ing of the Alumnae Association.
New officers and members to
the Elective Board will be elect-
ed at this time. Executive Board
members are elected every two
years.

Gripe Rates
Square Meal

In a case a long line of hun-
gry students is ever seen out-
side Dr. Alston's office, rest
assured that Betty Butler is the
cause. One day last week Betty,
who obviously dislikes cheese
buns and chicken less-chicken
soup, instigated what may turn
out to be a new policy when she
decided that it would be a per-
fect day to invite Dr. Alston
to lunch.

The plan backfired when she
found Mrs. Alston who was also
searching for Dr. Alston. The
first lady promised to give the
message to her husband.

So Betty went merrily and
hungrily to the library to pick
up her books. When she got
out to the street, she got pick-
ed up by Dr. and Mrs. Als-
ton who had decided that they
had better take her out to lunch
so she would not starve.

Betty reports that she had a
marvelous lunch. Now let's just
hope that Dr. Alston does not
find 400 starving students in
his office as Dean Kline found
400 blown-up balloons in his.

The lunch program "Ask Me
Anything" will feature a panel
consisting of President Alston,
Dean Scandrett, Dean Kline, Dr.
McNair, Miss Laura Steele,
and others who will answer
questions put forth by the alums.

Blackfriars fiftieth anniver-
sary celebration presentation,
'The Life and Death of Tom
Thumb the Great" will be pre-
sented again at 2:30 p.m. for the
benefit of those who do not see
it Friday evening.

Beginning at 4 p.m. will be
the class reunion parties. Pres-
ent at the fiftieth reunion of the
class of 1916, will be Miss
Margaret Phythian, President
of the class. The Margaret
Phythian Award is given in hon-
or of this Professor Emeritus
of French. She was head of
the Agnes Scott French Depart-
ment from 1923 to 1964.

The fund is given for summer
study in French. It may go to a
student who has completed her
freshman, sophomore, or junior
year. She must have had French
257 and be planning to major in
the language. This award is not
given annually, but rather when-
ever a student is considered
qualified to receive it. The
French Department must ap-
prove this student.

Among other reunion cele-
brations will be that of the class
of 1965 in the Faculty Club.
The alums and husbands of the
classes of 1936, 1937, 1938,
and 1939 will gather for a social
hour around the courtyard pool
of Stone Mountain. Afterwards,
they will enjoy a steak dinner
atop the mount.

Agnes Scott College wel-
comes her alumnae and hopes
they will enjoy reuniting once
again April 22 and 23.

Scott Enters
Derby Day

by Sybil Evarts

Perhaps you didn't know it
before now but it's a confirmed
fact... this year, for the first
time, we, the ladies of Agnes
Scott will participate in a Sigma
Chi "Derby Day." By now,
you're probably asking your-
self, "What's that."

Well, "Derby Day" is a day
of fun and frolic specifically
planned by Sigma Chi chapters
throughout the country for col-
lege students. It was started
in the Southland by the Univer-
sity of Georgia in 1935, although
the Sigs at Georgia Tech hate
to give the "University" such
publicity. Usually the event in-
volves all the campus sorori-
ties as participants and then
the school's student body turns
out to watch and enjoy.

This "Derby Day" doesn't
work like that. Because there
are two Sigma Chi chapters so
close together (at GA. Tech and
Emory) they felt there was a
much bigger opportunity to have
a really great event... and that
is exactly what has happened.
The Atlanta area's Derby Day
will have as participants the
ladies of Agnes Scott, the sor-
orities of Emory, and the Alpha
Xi Delta sorority of Georgia
Tech. So you can bet that there
will be a lot of people around.
And the word floating around
seems to indicate that the sor-
ority girls are Emory are really
looking forward to competing
against the students of Agnes
Scott and coming out on top of
the heap. Guess we'll show
them, huh?

And if you have ever wanted
to meet a boy at Georgia Tech,
this is the opportunity of a life
time. All the events will be held
at Landis field, at Georgia Tech
across from the Coliseumi. Just

SI ASG

For the last half century, leaders of women's student govern-
ments of Southern colleges have convened annually to bring to the
conference table of the Southern Intercollegiate Association of
Student Government a free exchange of ideas, a reckoning of
present problems, and an agenda of proposals for future improve-
ment of women's student governments.

This student-promoted association works to expand and to
realize the potentials of the respective women's student govern-
ments through a tighter communication among the colleges, an
emphasis on active participation of women in student govern-
ment, and a demand for the integrity of its members. The SIASG,
a unique national program, builds around its student leader-
ship, its student participation, and its student promotion.

Agnes Scott sponsored "the most successful, the most or-
ganized, and the most productive conference in the history of
SIASG," commended Julie Brown, SIASG president. "Because
of the pre-conference efforts of Agnes Scott, we were able to
begin future plans immediately, forgetting convention-planning
details."

The conference this year furnished the impetus for greater
efforts in the building and expansion of SIASG. The association
shifted from sixteen to twenty- four participation schools, from
seventy to one hundred six delegates, and from a generaliza-
tion of the ideal college government to an energetic concentra-
tion on the problems of real college government. In small dis-
cussion groups, the delegates compared present policies of their
campuses, gathered new and feasible programs, and learned how
other schools have dealt with and overcome common student
government problems.

SIASG is not for the lackadaisical college. Its standards and
continuation thrive on the energies, the initiatives, and the zeal-
ousness of its members centered in the locus of mutual interest
in and enthusiasm for more effective and vivacious women's
student government.

Publish Or Perish

Agnes Scott does not have a publish or perish policy.

Essentially, this policy means exactly what it implies. Either
a professor must publish material at regular intervals or be
released. This has become a serious problem in the academic
world, especially at large universities, because acceptance of
this policy changes the entire emphasis of the institution.
Specifically, the university feels that it has three functions:
1) teaching, or the transmission of knowledge; 2) research,
or contribution to the body of knowledge; and 3) service to the
community. When a university establishes a publish or perish
policy, in effect it is changing its emphasis from the teaching
function to the research function. Unfortunately for the student,
this often means thatprofessors become more concerned with
their research and publications than with their courses and
students. Incidently, the enforcement of this policy also pro-
duces many publications which are mechanical and worthless.

In 1965. the president of Yale recognized this problem in his
annual report. He wrote, "Recent national and international
pressures have somewhat dislocated the functions of the college
and university in many of the nation's most eminent institu-
tions. Briefly stated, the teaching function-which is the primary
function of the college as it prepares its students for entrance
to life or to further education-has suffered eclipse from the
university's primary emphasis upon the advancement of know-
Wge. Both activities are essential to a healthy institution,
and support one another."

Therefore, in an independent liberal arts college like Agnes
Scott the principal stress is on the teaching function, while
at a university the principal stress is on research. C. Benton
Kline, Dean of the Faculty emphasized that this is what a liberal
arts college has to offer. Its professors are at the college to
teach. According to Dean Kline "everybody recognizes that
significant research contributes to good teaching." However,
he stressed that for Agnes Scott this research is important
because it contributes to teaching, instead of research and
publication for its own sake. Hopefully, professors who re-
search will publish, but this is not necessary.

There is an informal criteria here that promotion to full
professorship will include professional contributions other
than teaching. However, there are people on our faculty who
have never published anything and are nonetheless some of our
best scholars. Dean Kline explained that even though we do not
have a great many people on campus who are active pub-
lishing scholars, most of our ablest teachers are "engaging
continuously in study and research!" Agnes Scott does not
choose these professors on the basis of publications. Instead,
"we appoint people we want to have."

Election Success

A successful innovation in election procedure this year was the
campaign speeches. The candidates were able to stress their
major points and voters were able to see and learn more of the
candidates than is revealed in a newspaper article.

It is unfortunate that more students did not hear the speeches.
Hopefully, the practice of giving campaign speeches will be
continued and participation will be even greater in the future.

There is much to be gained through such a free presenta-
tion before an open-minded audience.

Class Reunion Functions

Miss Wilson Plans Talk
On "The Sinful Student"

Agnes Scott News Director
Miss Carrington Wilson will
conduct three student discus-
sions this quarter.

The first discussion in the
"What Do You Think?" series
will be Tuesday, April 22, in the
Rebekah Recreation Room at
4:30 p.m. It will last a maxi-
mum of an hour and a half.

The topic is "What About
the Sinful Student?"

Miss Wilson will limit the
discussion group to 40 students.
Approximately ten girls from
each class will be accepted in
order to get a good cross sec-
tion of the student body.

She says that these discus-
sions will be frank, open, and
informal. Participating stu-
dents will be given mimeo-
graphed articles and back-
ground material to serve as

Psychologist
Speaks Today

Dr. Marshall R. Jones, chair-
man of the department of Psy-
chology at the University of
Miami at Coral Gables, is
speaking in chapel today. His
topic is "Trends in Mental
Health."

Last night Dr. Jones was
featured at a meeting of the
Psychology Club. He talked
about possibilities of graduate
school for psychology majors
and answered questions the
members asked.

A visiting scientist on a grant
from the American Psychology
Association, Dr. Jones receiv-
ed his undergraduate degree
from Drake, and his Ph.D. from
Yale.

guidelines in preparation for
the discussions.

Miss Wilson assures students
that what they say in these dis-
cussions will not be used for
publicity purposes. She explains
that she is conducting the dis-
cussions in order to feel out
Agnes Scott student opinion on
important current issues.

A list will be posted on the
Publicity Office Bulletin Board
in the Mail Room tomorrow.
Students who feel they can at-
tend the discussions must sign
up by Sunday night, April 24.
Include your box number in or-
der to receive preparatory ma-
terial for the discussions.

Miss Wilson adds that if space
in other classes allows, more
than ten students from one Class
may attend. An interested stu-
dent whose class has been fill-
ed may put her name, class, and
box number on the list, and will
be contacted if space allows her
inclusion in the discussion
group.

The second discussion will be
May 10 and the third approxi-
mately two weeks later. Watch
for the publication of these dis-
cussion topics in the PROFILE.

Pinafore"

Two nights after the last per-
formance of 'Tom Thumb the
Great," the Dana theatre will
again be in use for a play.
This time it will be a comic
operetta.

The Emory Men's Glee Club
and Women's Chorale will bring
Gilbert and Sullivan's "H.M.S.
Pinafore" to the Agnes Scott
campus. The only performance
begins at 8:15 p.m. April 25,
with all seats reserved and tic-
kets costing $1.25.

This production was origi-
nally given on February 28 as a
part of the Emory Creative Arts
Festival. It is directed, how-
ever, by Miss Elvena Green,
an Agnes Scott professor of
speech and drama.

The technical director is
Miss Jerry Rentz, also a mem-
ber of the Agnes Scott faculty.
Musical direction is by^ Dr.
William Lemonds of Emory.

At Emory the light musical
was performed in three-quar-
ter arena style which will easi-
ly adapt to the open stage in
Dana. And during the Creative
Arts Festival an orchestra was
hired to accompany the pro-
duction. A piano will be used
here.

The part of the Honourable
Joseph Porter is played by
Joseph Dickey. Mr. Dickey ap-
peared last year in the Mozart
opera "Cosi FanTutte" at the
Pocket Theater. He has also
performed at the 'Theatre Un-
der the Stars" during the sum-
mer.

Other principal members of
the cast include: James Pal-
mour as Dick Deadeye, Mike
Morgan as Bill Bobstay, Bob
Phillips as Ralph Rackstraw,
Harry Youmans as Bob Becket,
Gary Mathews as Captain Cor-

MOCKINGS

FROM
RAMON A

Dear Mom,

Well, the Mortar Board tap-
ping was the highlight of this big
election week. (A cut in Bible is
running hard for second place).
The thrill was that Jan's candle
sort of went out in front of me
and I thought this was going to
be a precedent- setting year.

I was a little disappointed that
I wasn't chosen, but then I got
very excited about my second
choice, Linda Marks. She didn't
get it either.

1 really am happy for Grace,
however. I know she'll do a ter-
rific job.

Phi Beta Kappa was also an-
nounced this week. An absolute
mob of seniors were picked.
And I'm really glad for every
one of them. I was almost cer-
tain I would be chosen. I guess
I had the beauty but not the
brains.

Actually, I did receive a bit
of a honor this week. I was
initiated into a candy bar socie-
ty, I Ata Wrappa.

Elections have been quite ex-
citing; there have been a num-
ber of upsets. For example, the
ambassador to France race
was really close.

It seems that trans- Atlantic
campaigning has proved quite
effective in the lecture commit-
tee race. As a matter of fact,
86 people are trying to go
abroad next fall in the hope of
winning major offices in next
year's elections.

I petitioned to Christian As-
sociation for the position of
Crusade chairman. And I got
it, probably because it was cre-
ated just for my unique talents.
This isn't the Campus Crusade
for Christ, Mom, but the real
thing. Yes, it's back to the
Middle Ages.

I've already set up two com-
mittees to prepare for our
search for the grail. Four hun-
dred people volunteered
to help collect mail until they
checked the spelling. Then we
dwindled.

The other committee is in
search of transportation. So
far we have two kayaks and one
frogman suit.

I have a meeting now with my
assistant in charge of rounding
up trusty steeds. Love,
Ramona

There will be all sorts of field
events in which our class
resentatives will compete with
the sororities of Emory in hopes
of becoming "Derby Day Cham-
pions." They should take about
an hour and a half to complete
which is plenty of time for our
teams to show their superiority;
meet lots of new people; and
perhaps find a date for the
dance that night at the Emory
gym. The band will be the
"Epics" and the dance is the
grand finale of Derby Day. SO
MAKE YOUR PLANS NOW1

ber of the Athletic Association,

Dana Wins
Magazine Award

For Design

"Charles A. Dana Fine Arts
Building is a functional building
adaptable to change and growth.
It has a quiet repose in its sur-
roundings and solves the design
problem without compromising
its own integrity."

This is the "College and
University Business' " sum-
mation of its reasons for featur-
ing the Fine Arts Building as
its March College Building of
the Month.

The design problem referred
to was that of designing a con-
temporary structure that would
blend comfortably with the rest
of the predominantly "Gothic
campus." The three page arti-
cle describes the building as "a
study in the relationship of
space within space."

It goes on to say that "the
concrete folded plate roof over
the studio evokes, in a thorough-
ly modern manner, the spirit of
other gabled roofs on the cam-
pus. The building is basically
a cathedral of art."

Along with the list
of construction details, the ar-
ticle includes pictures of the
interior and exterior of the
building and the architect's first
and second floor plans.

It describes in detail each of
the departments contained in
Dana. These descriptions in-
clude such things as the cera-
mics workshop, the theater, the
art galleries and studios, and
the art history projection room.

"Teaching activities for the
departments of art and of speech
and drama are effectively sep-
arated... The arts come to-
gether in the public areas of
the building."

Award certificates were pre-
sented by the McGraw-Hill pub-
lication to Dr. Alston and to
Edwards and Portman, archi-
tects for the building.

Dr. Alston expressed the
pride of the administration and
the school when he said that
"this is an honor on a national
scale. This magazine is out-
standing in the educatonal
world. It goes to institutions
and to business offices through-
out the nation."

Imagination Combats
Production Problems

Midgets, giants, kings,
queens, lovers and villains will
invade the Dana Theatre in the
form of Blackfriars' presenta-
tion of Henry Fielding's "Trag-
edy of Tragedies" or "The
Life and Death of Tom Thumb
the Great.'' Fielding's three-
act drama can be witnessed at
either of the trio of performan-
ces on April 22 and 23 at 8:15
p.m. or the 2:30 showing on the
23rd.

Tom Thumb' is Fielding's
best dramatic attempt," noted
Mary Helen Goodloe, stage
manager of Blackfriars. "In
this play Fielding molds a sa-
tire on the eighteenth century
tragedy and his finished pro-
duct is in the form of a burle-
sque."

Because of the nature of the
play, staging the drama pro-
duced several production prob-
lems. "Casting the charac-
ters, our first consideration,"
related Mary Helen, "stretch-
ed our imagination to empha-
size the petite statue of Tom,
portrayed by 4'10" Jane Mor-
gan." Fielding's script calls
for a nine-foot giant, Glum-
dallca. "Solving this problem,
we found that a stacking of Poppy

by Elizabeth Cooper

Wilson and Les Garber result-
ed in an even nine feet. There-
fore, we created our giant,"
explained Mary Helen.

Having cast the major roles
further energy was called forth
to costume the characters, a
second production problem.
Blair-Louise Major and Ben-
nett Rowan, costume coordina-
tors, collaborated to meet
Fielding's demands for a for-
ty-inch bust measurement for
Huncamunca, played by Lennard
Smith, and a six foot hip width
for the Queen, portrayed by Deb-
bie Potts. "With these huge
body proportions," warned
Mary Helen, **we have had to
take several precautions for the
safety of our miniature hero,
Tom Thumb."

The third production problem
was met in the staging of the
love scenes. 'The understand-
ing of the play lies in the care-
ful mapping of the many lov-
ers," the stage manager con-
tinued. Grizzle, the villian
played by Ray Dikes, combina-
tion girls' volley ball coach and
French and Latin teacher at
Westminister High School

loves Huncamunca, who loves
Tom Thumb, who is loved by
the Queen, whose husband, the
King loves Glumdallca, the giant.

"However," Mary Helen add-
ed, "Fielding limited the ac-
tual love scenes to a few 'Ohs,'
'Ahs,' and pants, while the basic
story is built around them."

The tragedy consumates in a
battle, which posed the fourth
production problem: how to
dispose of the bodies? After
the mass murder on stage,
bodies lie cluttering the floor.
"We can't just leave them
there I" exclaimed Mary Helen.
"Our solution was to have the
ushers join the battle scene
and drag them off the stage."

UzzelL Woods Attend Convention

While most of us were still
in the process of settling in
after the holidays (and wonder-
ing how we had got so far
behind in so short a time) two
students were off again for an
enriching if somewhat hectic
weekend at Canisius College in
Buffalo, New York.

The occasion was the annual
Eta Sigma Phi convention

In order to get to the con-
vention, Scott delegates Sarah
Uzzell and Louisa Woods had
to leave at 3:00 Thursday morn-
ing the only time they could get
seats on a plane with their eco-
nomical student tickets.

Unusual hours, however,
were not the only prerequisite
for this experience: until Tues-
day, March 29, Louisa was noi
even a member of Eta Sigma
Phi.

A political science major who
has recently decided to do un-
dergraduate work in Classics at
Emory next year in prepara-
tion for a graduate degree in
classics, and who will also be
taking some courses at Scott,
Louisa seemed an ideal dele-
gate to the convention if only
she belonged to Eta Sigma Phi.
And so it was arranged that an
initiation be held.

Sarah, an Eta Sigma Phi
member since her sophomore
year, had got off to a roaring
start immediately by going to

by Suzanne Scoggins

the convention that spring and
being elected Megas Hyparchos
(National Treasurer) for the
following year.

When she returned in the
spring of her junior year, she
campaigned for and won the
office of Megas Prytanis (Na-
tional President), a singular
honor which was mentioned in
the PROFILE at the time.

Sarah's address to the con-
vention, delivered after the ban-
quet Friday night, verged here
and there on the subject she
likes best politics but was
nevertheless a pronounced suc-
cess: it was extremely well
received by the delegates, and
.several periodicals have asked
her permission to publish it.

Sarah and Louisa agree that
the convention was a delight-
ful experience, and they are
happy to announce that next
year's convention may be held
in Atlanta, to be sponsored
jointly by the Alpha Delta chap-
ter here and the Alpha Sigma
chapter at Emory University.

Many seniors have bright
smiles and interesting plans
about graduate school which
have now crystalized because
they have received a fellowship,
grant or scholarship.

Marilyn Breen has received a
NASA Traineeship to the Uni-
versity of South Carolina. The
grant is renewable each year
for the next three years, and
Marilyn plans to work for her
master's degree in mathe-
matics.

Foote Mineral Company
awarded Kay Broadwater its
Scientific Scholarship for re-
search in chemistry. In addi-
tion, Kay has a teaching assist-
antship at the University of
Tennessee. She plans to study
analytical chemistry.

Mary Brown, who received a
Woodrow Wilson Fellowship,
plans to study East Asian His-
tory at Stanford University.

For study at the University of
Chicago, Margaret Davis was
awarded a grant through the
Bureau of Child Welfare by the
government. It is specifically
for a person going into social
work with children. Margaret
will receive her M.S. degree
in social work in a two year
program.

Jan Gaskell, also the recipient
of a Woodrow Wilson Fellow-
ship, plans to study for her
Ph.D. in Enlish at Stanford
Universiy.

Funds for Karen Gearrald's
scholarship to Radcliffe came
from a scholarship fund which
was set up primarily for small
southern colleges. Karen plans

to have her master's degree at
the end of next year and then go
on for her Ph.D. in Renais-
sance English literature. She
says that she can hardly wait.

Joan Kiker has a fellowship
to Stanford University and plans
to receive her master's degree
in mathematical sociology.

Karen Montgomery received
a National Defence Education
Act Fellowship and plans to
study chemistry at Emory Uni-
versity.

Also, Debbie Rosen was
awarded a Woodrow Wilson Fel-
lowship.

Stephanie Routsos received a
National Science Foundation
traineeship to the University of
Tennessee. She will do grad-
uate work in mathematics and
plans to teach math in college
after graduate school.

Gail Savage has a graduate
assistantship at the University
of North Carolina. She plans
to receive her master's degree
in mathematics.

Barbara Symroski will teach
freshman zoology as part of her
teaching assistantship to Duke
University. She plans to re-
ceive her Ph.D. in marine bi-
ology. In addition, Barby has
received a National Science
Foundation grant for study this
summer.

Wendy Williams was awarded
a fellowship from the Presby-
terian Board of Christian Edu-
cation to the Presbyterian
School of Christian Education.

Anthropologist
Speaks Today

Dr. Leslie A. White, anthro-
pologist at the University of
Michigan and 1964-65 president
of the American Anthropologi-
cal Association, is on the Agnes
Scott campus today.

"Dr. White is the leading
American exponent of culturo-
logy," says Mr. John Tumblin.
Although all types of studies of
men are traditionally called an-
thropology, the distinctive thing
about culturology is that it is the
study of man in his cultural con-
text.

Dr. White believes that the
American non-physical anthro-
pologists, who study the pre-
literate ancient societies and
some literate societies of to-
day, should devote more time to
the study of the American cul-
ture. In his presidential address
to the American Anthropologi-
cal Association in Detroit,
White states, "We know, or un-
derstand, very little about our
own culture. We were born and
reared within it and are there-
fore inclined to believe that we
understand it, just as the Hopi
Indians believe that they under-
stand their Snake Dance. But
we are unable to provide
answers to some of the simplest
questions."

One of Dr. White's famous
papers is ' Culturological vs.
Psychological Interpretations of
Behavior.

Mr. Tumblin is especially
anxious for sociology andpsyc-
hology students to hear Dr.
White, who will be speaking at
11 a.m. this morning in room 3
Buttrick . The entire campus
is invited.

5 to 6 p.m. Then from 8 to
12, the Tarns, a well known
group from the Atlanta area,
backed up by Spider and the
Astronauts, will entertain for

the dance in the dining hall.

In answer to the many ques-
tions that have been asked, there
are no stipulations about dan-
cing in the dining hall. It is

Working Scholars

Theodore Meyer Greene has described the college community
as a gathering of "older and younger scholars," denoting an
interaction among, a cooperation with, and working for each in-
dividual member of the group. One way in which Agnes Scott
demonstrates the importance of an atmosphere encouraging such
mutual relationships is notable in the Scholars at Work program.
A series of seminars conducted by both students and faculty
members, this program encourages excellence in independent
research and learning, and provides a means by which the "old-
er and younger scholars" can share the results of their individ-
ual intellectual endeavors.

Initiated, organized, and sponsored by Mortar Board, the
Scholars at Work series has featured students participating in
the Independent Study program and faculty members engaged
in academic research for these and publications. Consequently,
as the fruits of self-initiated scholastic work are revealed, in-
terested students become aware of both the difficulties with
and the rewards of such study.

Particularly fitting to Agnes Scott is the program, for in an
academic community which thrives on superior scholarship, one
stands not amazed to discover a student-organized program
which recognizes those who have expanded their mental hori-
zons by stepping beyond required study to reach for satisfac-
tion of intellectual curiosity. A challenge for the observer,
an advancement for the participant, the Scholars both "older
and younger" at Work program caters to those interested in
zealous intellectual pursuits through second helpings of learning.

Doubtless you've noticed the PROFILE has lost
weight lately. The reason is the logical one
we've been put on a diet. Financially, that is.
We have received as much money as is pos-
sible from Student Treasury, which, as every-
one knows, is not in excellent fiscal shape it-
self.

There is nothing we can do about the situa-
tion but live with it. We will publish as often
as possible, probably every other week, and
bring out the annual graduate issue, hopefully
a larger paper, at the end of the quarter.

We apologize for the problem and will do
our best to pack as much as possible into the
pages we can print.

Rep Council

At last week's joint meeting of the old and
new Rep Council members, committee chair-
men for this year gave final reports regard-
ing their accomplishments and effectiveness
this year and suggesting changes in operation
for next year.

The reports covered subjects from major
policies to the hours meals are served, but
most of them had a common thread. Most

leaders mentioned ignorance of what the stu-
dent body wanted done.

Now, as the new officers take over, is the
best time to consider this problem of com-
munication. And consider this time from a new
angle. Much talk goes on about know-your Rep
Council. We feel that students are beginning
to know more what goes on in their governing
body.

What about a little know-your- student body
talk now? Representatives are elected to
represent; part of their job is to talk to stu-
dents and find out what they want changed,
maintained, modified in all areas.

We are not disparaging to work done by the
committees this year. Progress has been
made, in many thing from major policies to
the hours meals are served. More communi-
cation is need for new year, however, start-
ing at the Rep Council end. If leaders can-
not find out what students want done, they
should at least know whether what they are
doing is acceptable to the students.

Looking Back

E rskine

Our compliments to those responsible for
the look of the new catalogues. Those of us
accustomed to sloppily-made 60-cent paper-
backs are always happy to see a beautiful-
ly made paper-bound book. The bulletin for
1966 is such a beautiful book.

The contents of the catalogue was thorough-
ly reviewed and revised last year; it was time
to change the format. Appropriately enough,
the contemporary color and cover design fit
well into this year of fine arts' emphasis.

The inside typography also has a fresh,
clear look. The darker type set with narrower
margins is more readable. And the change
from "a," "b," and "c" notation to "f,"
"w," and "s" is much more logical.

The appearance of a book has much in-
:CLuence on how well it will be read. We hope
;the attractive new form of the catalogue is
Lnspiring careful study this course selection
week, especially among sophomores who
should be considering with care a choice of
major.

At the student government retreat last fall
each committee presented a report of its
plans for this year. While many of these plans
were good, some of them were not completed.
Sometimes this came from a lack of action
by the committee. At other times there were
problems over which the committee had re-
latively little control. The following report is
an analysis of some of thesecommittees' ac-
complishments.

One of the most active committees was the
Student Curriculm Committee. This com-
mittee was formed several years ago to en-
able students to be involved in the process of
considering improvements and changes in the
curriculum. In accordance with this the com-
mittee set two of its goals as 1) a study of
student opinion on the possibility of including
Russian and Italian in the curriculum; and 2)
language houses to be established for students
with proficiency in foreign languages.

The committee found that there is a defi-
nite student interest in offering courses in
Russian and Italian. However, these courses
are hard to organize, because a professor in
these subjects would probably have to teach
courses in another language also. Although the
committee was not able to materialize the
language house for next year, work is still
being done in this area, and there is a pos-
sibility of forming one after this.

This committee also organized the study
group on Modern India led by Mrs. Philip
last fall. This seminar was well attended, and
both Mrs. Philip and the committee consider-
ed it successful. On a different level, the com-
m ittee has helped in organizing the typing and
shorthand courses in conjunction with Decatur
High School.

Recently, the committee has fixed major
booklets for sophomores to aid them in choos-
ing a major. Another activity along this line
was major nigh^ an excellent idea. How-
ever, although it was good this year, it was
not well attended. The committee is there-
fore planning a re-evaluation of this activity.

While this committee was successful in ac-
complishing many of its goals, some commit-
tees were blocked even though they worked
hard. An example of this was the Exchange
Committee. Although an exchange with an-
other college was planned for this year, none
materialized. Many of the problems were con-
nected with other schools. For instance, let-
ters written to other colleges were often un-

answered. An exchange withSpelman was im-
possible, because they were not interested in
a short term exchange.

The exchange committee was therefore
confined to encouraging group participation at
other schools. The Spelman glee club per-
formance here during Holy Week was an ex-
ample. The usefulness of this committee can
be improved next year by enlarging its scope
to include all contacts with other schools,
and having greater communication between
students and the committee.

The Policy Committee was also partially
hampered by problems. This committee, how-
ever, did succeed in changing the Chaperonage
Policy. Although the committee tried to adopt
a rule allowing one girl to walk to Cabin, the
Administrative Committee did not think this
was safe. Besides working on policy changes
this committee also helped on the wording
of the Handbook and worked more closely with
Rep Council than in the past, especially in
revising the car policy.

However, one of the problems of this com-
mittee was the infrequent meetings of Ad-
ministrative Committee. This caused a delay
in the final decision on some pro^sed
changes. Another problem of this committee
was determining the pulse of the student body.
Policy Committee has several ideas for solv-
ing this problem, such as forming a link of
communication from the students to the com-
mittee through judicial or house council
representatives.

Another committee on campus this year was
the Student Services Committee. This year its
biggest project concerned private telephones.
However, the committee was also active in
other fields. Besides working on many little
changes with Mr. Rogers and Mr. Lap-
pheimer, the committee made improvements
in* I) starting Saturday lunch at 12:00; 2) ex-
tending bookstore hours during registration;
and 3) helping with "Affirmation: Vietnam"
work on campus. The committee considered
the possibility of having a Zerox machine for
student use, oat these plans did not develop .

This is only a sample of the committees
on campus. While much was accomplished this
year, there are still problems. However, most
of the committees recognize what their pro-
blems are and are anxious to solve them. This
in itself is an encouraging beginning for next
year.

Author Welty Sensitive,
Interested In People

by Diane Dixon

For several days last week
Scott was hostess to one of the
South's most distinguished wri-
ters, Miss Eudora Welty.

As she lived and moved on
campus the qualities which
make her the very sensitive
and observant writer that she
is were evident.

Miss Welty was alert to
everything about her, the dog-
wood trees and the little ani-
mals. In front of the dining hall
she attracted a crowd as she
inspected red tulips. She was
delighted by the "red cow eats
Tom Thumb" episode in con-
vocation.

Most of all Miss Welty was
interested in people. Her love
for people, even the most or-
dinary people, is reflected in
the stories she read in her
lectures, "The Petrified Man"
and "Why I Live at the P.O."

Miss Welty was also inter-
ested in aspiring writers. "The
best part of my lecture tour
is talking to interested groups
like this," Miss Welty told a

small circle of English majors
who lunched with her Wednes-
day.

At Millsaps College where
she is teaching creative writ-
ing Miss Welty gives her stu-
dents a free hand in class. "I
make no definite assignments
to my class." Creative writing
is an individual thing Miss Welty
believes. A teacher can guide
a student in creative writing
but the product must be from the
student herself.

Her writing class holds infor-
mal discussion sessions in the
faculty lounge of Millsaps
"where they can smoke and put
their feet on the table" or out-
of-doors when the weather is
good.

In all her discussions Miss
Welty particularly stressed the
independence needed for a wri-
ter. She objected to detailed
stories on a writer's life and
writing habits. Instead she em-
phasized the important need for
all writers to be individuals and
not to copy the ways of others.

U.S.-India Exchange 1

IGroseelose Joins
Miranda House

Associate professor of bio-
logy Nancy Groseclose will j Din
the faculty of Miranda House,
Delhi, India, this July as part
of the United States- India Wo-
men's College Exchange Pro-
gram. The program sponsored
visiting professor of political
science Aley Philip at Agnes
Scott fall quarter.

In the third year, six Ameri-
can professors selected from
the applicants of the thirteen
participating American col-
leges receive appointments to
the faculties of the six colleges
which belong to the exchange
program. This will be the first
year that Agnes Scott professor
has taught under the Indian sys-
tem.

In addition to the two lec-
tures per week, Miss Grose-
close will hold a seminar for
Miranda House's biology pro-
fessors to instruct them in the
laboratory procedure of teach-
ing embryology and histology.
She has also been requested to
assist in establishing a dean's
offi' for co-ordinating student
activities. Miranda House, an
affiliate of the University of
Delhi, has a student body of
1100. Oni" ,o 0 live in hostels,
the India equivalent of dormi-
tories.

Classes are held in English.
However, discussing her plans
with other exchange professors,
Miss Groseclose finds that her
major problems under the In-
dian college system will be in
teaching by a syllabus towards
a standard final examination
which is issued and graded by
the University of Delhi.

In addition to the lack of
freedom in planning and grad-

ing, Miss Groseclose has been
warned that there may be unex-
pected holidays, lasting from
one day to several weeks as the
occasion calls for, which tend
to disturb the progress of the
class towards the completion
of the syllabus and preparation
for the standard examination.

Because residence is not pro-
vided, Miss Groseclose will live
in a residence hotel for Euro-
peans and Americans in Delhi.

Teaching in Indian colleges
under the programs this com-
ing year are two professors
from Randolph-Macon and one
from both Sweetbriar and Mary
Washington.

While the students accept
Western clothes when worn by
Westerners, Miss Groseclose
notes that she has been warned
that if she is buying a new cock-
tail dress, it should be color-
ful,, She comments, "American
women are noted for being drab
at Indian parties."

Tom Thumb"
Shines For 50th

by Susan Aikman and Virginia Russell

The Golden Anniversary pro-
duction of Blackfriars was ce-
lebrated last weekend with
alums helping to swell the ca-
pacity crowds of Friday and
Saturday nights.

It was a grizzly affair as Ray
Dykes stole the show in Field-
ing's "Tragedy of Tragedies or
The Life and Death of Tom
Thumb the Great."

The play, a satire of heroic
drama of the seventeenth cen-
tury, is seldom serious as it
portrays courtly affairs ofTom
Thumb, Grizzle, Princess Hun-
camunca, Queen Dollalolla,
King Arthur, and giantess
Glumdalca the sides of an
eternal polygon. The figure,
however, proved to be tempo-
ral as all characters lay dead
at the end.

The production of the play
is an achievement for Miss
Elvena Green. It was definitely
the result of good direction as
well as good acting. Hugh Loftin
and Hermann Flaschka especi-
ally turned in some fairy good

Derby

acting. Technical production of
the play was handled very well
by Miss Jerry Rentz.

Each of the three perfor-
mances had its unique quality.
Friday night Hermann Flas-
chka, as Noodle, lost not only
his life but also his wig.

Saturday afternoon in the si-
lent moment preceding the
king's last speech, Mrs. (Ger-
man department) Huber's dau-
ghter astutely informed the au-
dience, "They're all dead."

Saturday evening Frances
Foreman, one of the "stout
men," used her padding to full
advantage as she gracefully ex-
ecuted an accidental forward
fall.

Out of usual costume and na-
tural habitat were two Agnes
Scott professors Kwai Sing
Chang and Michael Brown. The
latter's role the Ghost of
Gaffer Thumb was more
than slightly reminiscent of
Shakespeare^ "Hamlet."

The production from sound
effects and lighting to cos-
tumes and scenery to delive-
rance of lines was a fitting
climax to the first fifty years
of the Agnes Scott Blackfriars.

Scotties will try to steal. The
individual students and classes
will receive points for the num-
ber of derbies taken. These
points will count toward the
overall accumulation for priz-
es.

Transportation will be pro-

come to Derby Day and support
the Scott teams in their battle
against the sorority forces of

PAGE 4 APRIL 28, 1966 THE PROFILE

MOCKINGS
FROM

RAMON A

Dear Mom,

Why didn't you warn me about
the Cartwright family curse?
You don't know what a shock it
is to find out suddenly that your
blood type is OB neutral. I've
written the computer to see if
it can quest for a boy who
matches me.

Meanwhile, my weird blood
has not slowed down social life
in the least. Recently I went
to a baseball game. Actually,
I had two dates for the night,
and since I wanted the second
guy who asked me to ask me out
again, I didn't tell him I had a
date, but said I had to go to a
meeting. Well, naturally, he
asked to come out when the
meeting was over.

. In the third inning I wormed
my way to a phone in the rest
room and called. It was so noisy
that I had to shout. It made
no small sensation when I yelled
into the phone, "Well, the lec-
ture's over, but now I think
they're going to show a movie."

I never did find out who won
the game. I spent most of the
time finding my way back to my
seat. Then the brain I was with
thought the game was over at
the seventh inning stretch, so
we left.

Last weekend was Alumnae
Day, as I learned the hard way.
I had a cut in my class, so I
slept late, then dashed to the
mailroom in usual Saturday
morn attire long nightgown,
short raincoat, leopard-design
bedroom shoes, rolled hair and
purple scarf. You guessed it,
Mom. Dr. Alston was conduct-
ing a tour of the mailroom for
the class of '99.

Later, when dressed, I was
talking to a graduate of 1920.
She was amazed to hear about
all the changes. She was most
shocked to learn thatwehavean
apartment policy. They had no
such restrictions. Of course,
I'm not sure they had apart-
ments, either.

I had not realized until last
weekend how many truly famous
people came to Scott. Why
from the class of '99 there
was Uneeda Cantelope who is
now president of the PTA
in Orangeburg, Greenland.

Then there was Penelope Sch-
linklenheimer. She tried out
for "Captain Kangaroo" but is
now a big TV star in her own
right. Yes, she stars on the
top-rated show "Private Pene-
lope's Party Time" inElwood,
Indiana.

I was most impressed by Sal-
ly Forth, the only Moral Re-
Armament missionary to the
Hunkydory tribe of deepest Af-
rica.

1 was disappointed at the
Dlackfriars play. The giant was
neither a ball player from San
Francisco nor one of those tall
Globetrotters. Get it, Mom?
Hee, hee. Actually, the play
was terrific.

Love,

Ramona

WOODROW WILSON WINNER Mary Brown presented her
independent study results in the "Scholars at Work" series
currently being presented on campus. Mary, here talking with
Dr. Swart, her advisor, conducted a study on "Marx to Mao:
The Revolutionary Role of the Peasant."

London Appoints
Swart For History

Dr. Koenraad W. Swart has
been appointed to the Chair of
Dutch History and Institutions
at University College of the Uni-
versity of London.

With the end of the current
academic year he will there-
fore resign his position of as-
sociate professor of history at
Agnes Scott College which he
has held for the last ten years.

In his new position, which has
been held by many prominent
Dutch historians, Dr. Swart will
have a teaching load of not
more than five hours a week
so that he expects to have ample
time for research. The first
announcement that he was be-
ing considered for this distin-
guished position came as a com-
plete surprise to him. Since he
is an American citizen he hard-
ly expected tha t the Dutch go-
vernment, who is financing the
Chair, would approve of his ap-
pointment.

His major field of interest
is, moreover, not Dutch his-
tory, but European intellectual
history. Evidently the Univer-
sity of London was looking for
a qualified historian with broad
Interests rather than a narrow
specialist in Dutch history. Be-
sides various articles he has
published two books: Sale of
Offices in the Seventeenth Cen-
tury and The Sense of Decaden ce
in Nin eteenth-Centur y Fran ce.

Dr. Swart's appointment at
thf University of London will
bring to a close his teaching
career in the United States.
After having studied at the Uni-
versity of Leiden, the Sorbonne,
and Harvard University he be-
came a permanent resident of
this country in 1949 and has
taught at the University of Ill-
inois, Georgetown University,
and Brenau College previous
to his coming to Agnes Scott.
He and his family plan to

leave this country early this
summer so that they will have
time to find appropriate housing
and schools for their four chil-
dren. He will spent part of
the summer in preparing the
inaugural lecture which he will
have to deliver at the Univer-
sity of London next academic
year.

Although Dr. Swart is leaving
Agnes Scott with mixed feelings,
he is looking forward to his new
teaching assignment at one of
the world's leading institutions
of higher learning. "The Univer-
sity of London," stated Dr.
Swart," has been a pioneer in
granting complete freedom to
faculty as well as students in
expressing their political, phi-
losophical, religious, or irre-
ligious point of view. It was
founded in the beginning of the
nineteenth century with the ex-
press purpose of marking an end
to the domination of the Church
of England over the English uni-
versities of that time."

New Leaders
Confer, Plan
At Retreat

Lynne Wilkins, president of
Student Government for 1966-
67, has announced that the an-
nual spring leadership retreat
will be in the Cabin at 5 p.m.
on Sunday, May 8.

Dr. Alston will address the
joint meeting. Following the
speech each board will meet to
discuss plans for the coming
year.

Students Better,
Grades Stable

As perhaps students have
suspected, professors continue
giving about the same porpor-
tion of good, medium, and fail-
ing grades despite the greater
ability and the better prepara-
tion of today's students.

A study by the Office of Eval-
uation Studies at Georgia Tech
indicates that although entering
freshmen in 1965 scored con-
siderably higher on the average
than those in 1957 on the Scho-
lastic Aptitude Tests and have
better high school records, a
"change in earned grade dis-
tributions has not occurred."

Why? It is believed that ma-
terial at a higher or more in-
tensive level is being offered,
Dr. Sam Webb, director of eval-
uation studies says. 'This sort
of thing is happening in schools
across the country wherever,
by virtue of large numbers of
applicants, schools are allowed

PE Problem

Let's not take the fun out of physical education. Let's not make
the physical education requirement an ordeal. Let's halt both the
potential rebellious attitude that is evident among the PE. students
and the embryonic rumors of compulsory attendance hinted at
by the physical education faculty.

At the beginning of spring quarter, the physical education
classes received a free reminder that some failures in that de-
partment will be issued on the basis of too frequent class cuts.
(Evidently the PE cut problem is more serious than most would
expect or the warning would not have been made.)

However, student reaction was immediately noted, and the
department's point was well made. But in what form did the
student reaction emerge, To some the warning came as "just
another announcement," and no particularly unusual mixed
emotions of resentment and complete shock. Why?

First, physical education is the only course in the Agnes
Scott curriculum in which an A or a Dmake no difference to
one's grade point. Second, Agnes Scott maintains a policy of
voluntary class attendance for all students who maintain a C
AVERAGE OR BETTER. Third, the warning began to take the
fun out of PE.

Can such a warning be justified? And if so, are the students
within their bounds to react negatively? To consider the initial
question is to examine the primary causes of PE cutting. First,
the PE class is most frequently evaded to do a last-minute
brush-up for a major quiz for which there is a difference in
an A and a D.Second # Saturday PE classes, like many Saturday
academic classes find their roles limited because of week-end
trips home or to other college campuses. And, of course, there
are, as there will always be, those students who just do not come
to class. (But is this minority not equally infamous to all de-
partments?) But in all fairness, one must admit that if one plans
to cut a class, he worries least about physical education. But is
this not permissable? The course is designed to acquaint one
with sports, various dancing techniques, posture habits, or
motor skills activities which gave a break from the academic
strain. Therefore, if a student can both learn the skill and pass
the written test having several cuts, what is the argument against
occasional cutting? On the other hand, if in a student's missing
class, she does not attain the particular skill, then the depart-
ment has no choice but to fail the student for not having met the
stipulations for the course.

Nevertheless, the PE-cut problem holds a challenge for both
student and faculty. First, the student must recognize and ac-
cept the requirement for the passing of six quarters of physical 1
education, and in doing so make the necessary effort to meet
this requirement. Second, to the faculty goes the responsibility
to realize that making the course as difficult as possible will do
no good: the students will settle for D's. Demonstrating a good,
fair attitude about the PE class will more times than not re-
sult in a greater degree of student enthusiasm. And let both
student and faculty be reminded not to take the fun out of PE.

Curlers And Old Lace

The Social Council dress policy that appears in the Handbook
tates that "scarves must be worn when hair is rolled up or
in clips."

However, many people this year have been wearing curler
caps and even thin nets, especially in the dining hall. We feel
that these lacy affairs are a bit Inappropriate, but here we want
to know if they correspond to Social Council's wishes.

Has the dress policy been changed? If so, the student body in
general should know it. If the policy is still the one printed in
the Handbook, we strongly request Social Council enforce it.

I do not mean to exhume anything long bur-
ied, but I would like to question something
that did not become widely known until re-
cently. As a matter of fact it was not gen-
erally known until the last issue of the PRO-
FILE.

The annual report of the new student ser-
vices committee to Rep Council listed as its
third (of three) major activity for the year
"helping with 'Affirmation Vietnam' work on
campus." I would like to know how it was at
all within the rights and responsibilities of
this student government committee to take
on such a project. Rep Council is a governing
body of the entire student group and I fail
to see how one of its committees, an exten-

Social Apathy

Griffin

by Joy

We have all heard of acade-
mic apathy, religious apathy,
and intellectual apathy. How-
ever, social apathy is a little
different.

Girl's schools are known for
their marvelous institutions
such as the rush girl and the
blind date. There is also, in
our case, a social event called
the "Agnes Scott Dance". With
student interests in mind, our
last dance provided a weekend
on campus for social activity,
good entertainment, and of
course, the opportunity for a
full weekend of dating. But, the
response indicated that these ef-
forts* were not necessary as
they were not utilized.

The whole student body was
not at Dooly's, and of the re-
mainder not all were at the
dance. It seems there were
many people who just did not
want to attend.

The reasons for this must
be known. Agnes Scott may not
need a social event in the spring.
Or perhaps, a dance on just

one night would be preferred
to a whole weekend. A dance off
campus might be better than one
in the dining hall.

This is what we need to know.
Activities of this kind must be
based on student response to
be successful. If not successful
they will be abandoned. To con-
tinue the dance program at all
we must know what is wanted
and needed.

Your advice and support is
necessary.

Fall quarter is dedicated to
hockey, while the winter em-
phasizes basketball. The spring
season is not so simply de-
fined. The campus can partake,
with equal pleasure, in a variety
of activities.

In tennis, student and faculty-
student doubles tournaments
are underway. The tennis club
has held spring tryouts and
has taken five new members:
Joanna Reed, Lou Frank, Julie
Link, Lynn Cook, and Betty
Derrick. In addition, the club
has scheduled matches with the
Women's College of Georgia,
the University of Georgia, and
.Spelman College. Thus far,
Scott has lost one match to a
strong team from the Women's
College and won two against
Spelmaju. Although the girls
have not had the time to spend
on concentrated practice, Miss
Cox, the club sponsor, feels
that they have exerted their
best efforts in the matches.

On the afternoon of Tuesday,
May 17, Scott will host the
team from Georgia. The club
urges all tennis fans to watch
this match. The university's
girls have the power and pre-
cision to make the competition
an educational experience for
their Scott opponents and a
well-paced performance for
spectators.

Volleyball season has had a
slow start. Rainy weather and
conflicts in schedules partly
account for the slack atten-
dance at practices and games.
However enthusiasm and skill

abound among those who have
been playing. The freshmen,
in particular, have exhibited
the teamwork necessary to
compete successfully against
the experience of such upper
classmen as Gue Pardue f1
Louise Watkins, and Alice Da-
vidson. Last Tuesday, the
freshmen, led by Windy Lundy,
Julie Link, and Martha Cooper,
defeated the team from the
girls' school of Westminster
High School. The volleyball ga-
mes are held every Friday be-
tween 4 and 5 p.m. so everyone
come and support your class
team.

By popular demand, a spring
swimming meet will be held this
evening at 7 :30 p.m. Kathy
Vansant, swimming manager,
has not released full details
of the events to be included.
However she has said that the
meet will be shorter than the
one held this past fall and the
competition will not include di-
ving. Students will compete on
class teams. If the fall meet
is any indication of the type of
contest to be expected, the
events tonight will feature
fierce and close competition.

Beside these specific events,
each activity has allotted most
of its time for general campus
use. Of course, tennis and vol-
leyball courts are available at
all times, except during clas-
ses and matches. Open archery
is held every Tuesday from
3:30 to 5:30 p.m. The swim-
ming pool is open at hours
posted In the mailroom.

3ion of that governing body, can promote such
a partisan move as "Affirmation: Vietnam."

This issue has nothing to do with anyone's
feelings about the war in Southeast Asia or
the organization in favor of it. It does have
to do with Rep Council. The fact that many
students and student leaders supported "Af-
firmation: Vietnam" does not mean that
every student was in favor, even if support
had been unanimous, it seems that a proposal
to help officially should have been duly ap-
proved by Rep Council. Student government
committees should represent students and
work for their general good, not promote
outside organizations on campus, especially
of such a controversial nature.

MOCKINGS

FROM
RAMONA

Dear Mofn,

Would you believe getting
red-tagged next fall? Yes, that
fun time of year, course selec-
tion week, has come and gone
with the usual hectic results. I
spent the entire week working
out my schedule. Then I had to
seek out my faculty advisor
whose office hours were posted
as ^ to 4 Saturday night.

Unfortunately I've just dis-
covered that the history course
I've been counting on is not the
p re-requisite to the rest of the
course in the department; it's
the seminar for senior majors.

I have also learned that the
catalogue I used to fill out my
cards is the 1926 edition. The
cover fell off it and my new one
so I couldn't tell.

I wonder what it was like be-
fore Derby Day. Peaceful would
be a good guess. Naturally I
planned to go, since I've never
been to Churchill Downs, but 1
did wonder how they could pro-
vide transportation for such a
distance. After I arrived and
saw the race, I decided that the
horses should be bigger than
those roosters, and the place
did resemble Tech.

It was fun anyway, and, of
course, the freshmen won. It
was a bit warm, but the last
words of almost everyone who
fainted from the heatwere "I'm
having such a great time I"
I got my derbies, too, Mom.
You see, I had this 20-foot pole.
So I leaned out of the window
on the fifth stack in the library
and grabbed this guy. Actually
I missed his hat and caught his
neck. He ran and just as I
started to fall out the window,
Mrs. Byers grabbed my foot
and pulled me back. It's still
a little hazy, but Mrs. Byers
ended up with the derby. I
finally got three, however, by
sneaking into Nina Gregg's
room and stealing hers.

By the way, the freshmen
are really excelling at volley-
ball. I'm sure there is no con-
nection with the fact that I
didn't try out for the team.
Anyway the girls are doing a
great job.

Well, just call me cultured; I
went to opera. At 6:00 Wednes-
day night, I found a ticket to
buy. Of course, I didn't have a
thing to wear. My raincoat
fitted in well with the last row
of the gallery, however.

I really craved It, Mom. "La
Boheme" is so beautiful. And,
can you believe it? Richard
Tucker does sing better than
Roger Miller.

Sorry I haven't written soon-
er. I've been low on funds.

Love,

Ramona

Freshman Capture Derby
With Hats, Flour, Beauty

Saturday, May 7, Derby Day
1966: zany, daring, murder-
ous, rousing, fun, fun, fun. On
what other day could a sopho-
more explain a broken finger
and a concussion to her mother
by saying "I was just chasing
this boy across the hockey field
last night, and he kicked me,"
and hear her mother reply "Be
more careful next time, dear."

In truth, the Sigma Chi derby
stealing gave Scott girls a
chance to demonstrate the skills
learned in the self-defense pro-
gram and a few maneuvers,
like flying tackle, which were
not taught. One pack of girls
trapped a derby-crowned Sig-
ma Chi in a tree in front of
Inman. Barbara Symroski tried
to dislodge his derby with
squirts from a water hose but
only succeeded in soaking the
hat and the boy under it.

ed the Sigma Chi houses of
Emory and Tech. Besides the
Besides the scraped chins and
battered knees collected by all
the classes, the freshmen and
sophomores amassed 80 der-
bies each to tie for first place
in the overall competition. The
Tri- Delta Sorority of Emory
placed second.

The derby stealing was only a
prelude to the events of Derby
Day itself. The beauty contest

with Beverly Marbut of fcimory.
Emily Balz, a Tri-Delta, was
named Miss Derby Day.

After the beauty contest the
derby events moved outside to
Landis Field. Here the contest
for overall winner narrowed to
a race between the freshmen
class of Scott and the Tri- Delta
sorority of Emory- with con-
stant pressing from the Scott
sophomores. Of course, the

other classes and sororities
struggled to place in the various
events.

One girl literally knocked
herself out trying to beat fresh-
man Winkle Wooten in the Flour
Fun event. The object of this
particular contest was to col-
lect as many poker chips as
possible from a mound of flour
within a time limit. As the con-
testants dove into the mound,
the Emory co-ed rammed Win-
kie, bounded off, and fainted.

Kathy Stubbs and the juniors'
chicken strived valiantly to tie
for ninth place in the rooster
race. The seniors took third
place in the Raunchy Relay and
tied for third place in the roos-
ter race.

As the last event, the Raunchy
Relay, neared, the final outcome
still remained uncertain. If the
Tri-Delts won the event, that
sorority would win the entire
competition by one point; if not,
the Emory co-ed's would lose.
They lost by one point-thanks
to the hustle of the sophomores
who placed first in the relay.

The final tally of points placed
the Scott freshmen first with 29
points; the Tri-DeltsVere sec-
ond with 28; and the sophomores
took third place with 22 points.

Georgia State's Waterman

No Unique
At Women's

WASHINGTON, (CPS)
"There is no unique advantage
in separate education for men
and women," William H. C.
Prentice, president of Wheaton
College, told a Washington area
alumni meeting irecently..

Wheaton College is one of the

many small colleges for wo-
men in the New England area.
The school is located in Norton
Mass., about 35 miles south-
west of Boston, and has a stu-
dent enrollment of just under
1,000.

Prentice said he would be
surprised indeed if separate
schools for men and women
were still in existence in 50
years.

"To be honest, I am surpris-
ed even today to find so many
young women choosing to study
in an all women's college, *'
he added.

Prentice said one possibility
was that Wheaton and other
girl's schools might become co-
educational. "We have no plans
in that direction at present,
however," he added.

A.B. degree from Alleghany
College in Pennsylvania. He
received his M.A. and Ph.D.
from the University of Wiscon-
sin. He has caught in Wisconsin,
Michigan, and now Georgia.

Mr. Waterman says that he
likes teaching at Agnes Scott but
admits he likes to teach any
student. He finds Agnes Scott
students stimulating, aggres-
sive and willing to entertain
new ideas.

When asked to compare Scot-
ties to Georgia State students,
Mr. Waterman replied that
there were fewer "dumb ones
at Agnes Scott but the smart
ones are no smarter".

Mr. Waterman likes Atlanta
but states that there is a dif-
ference between Atlanta and
"the South". He explains that
he will never feel at home in the
South as he does in the Midwest.

"I'm a hick - not a rebel, a
Midwestern hick, not a red-
neck," Mr. Waterman said
emphatically.

On Susa n Galspe ll is Mr. Wat-
erman's soon-to-be-published
book about the Provincetown
Theater playwright.

Students find Mr. Waterman
very expressive and feel a "re-
freshing student-teacher rela-
tionship".

After giving his modern
drama class his firsi; test, Mr.
Waterman admitted that he had
made it especially hard because
he wanted to show that "by
God his standards were just
as high as anybody else's".

He hates the 12 o'clock train
that comes by each day during
his class. Mr. Waterman de-
clared one day, "I'm gonna pull
up the damn tracks."

Committee Announces
Lecturers For 1966-67

Psych Department
Receives $11,600

The psychology department
has received a $11,600 two-
year grant from the National
Science Foundation. The col-
lege will pay one-half the above
amount. Dr. Thomas Hogan will
be project director for the
grant.

The funds are for psychologi-
cal equipment and psychology
laboratories. Modern experi-
mental psychology laboratories
will be constructed on 1440
square feet of unused space in
the basement of Campbell Hall.

The facilities will include a
large classroom for experi-
mental psychology, statistics
and advanced experimental psy-
chology. There will also be
seven smaller experimental
rooms and an electronics pro-
gramming room. Improvements
will be made in the psychology
animal room.

Dr. Hogan says that the pur-
pose of the planned improve-
ments is to implement a pro-
gram of instruction that will
give the student a theoretical
and working understanding of
the field of psychology.

Equipment is to be used in

all levels of undergraduate
course instruction. It will be
specifically used for demon-
strations in general psycholo-
gy, demonstrations and labora-
tory work in experimental psy-
chology and independent study in
psychology.

The equipment deludes apa-
ratus for the study of sensation,
perception and learning in both
humans and animals. Elec-
tronic programming and re-
cording equipment will be used
for the automatic presentation
of stimuli and the recording of
responses.

The new equipment will be
put to immediate use as, ac-
cording to Dr. Hogan, the aver-
age number of psychology ma-
jors in the school years 65-6^
and 66-67 is more than twice as
great as in the preceding twc
years.

There will be seventeen ne*
majors for the fall of 1966. Fiv<
students will be doing indepen-
dent study in psychology, aac
three students will be taking
advanced experimental psy-
chology.

Lecture committee announces
plans for six visiting scholars
during the next school year. In
the fall quarter, Cleanth Broo-
ks, M. Stanton Evans, and Gen-
eral Maxwell Taylor will visit
the Scott campus.
Mr. Brooks is professor of
English at Yale University, but
has been employed for the last
two years in the United States
Embassy in London. He will be
the speaker for the Honor's Day
Convocation in addition to a lec-
ture on October 6.

Mr. Evans, requested by the
Young Conservative Club, is the
editor of the Indianapolis News.
He will lecture on the evening
of October 18.

In November, General Max-
well D. Taylor, former Chief
of Staff, Washington D.C. and

father-in-law of an ASC alumna
will visit the campus. He par-
ticularly wants to visit the stu-
dents and see the general public
only "incidentally."

Winter quarter will feature
the Baroque Chamber Players
from the University of Indiana.
Harold Schonbery of the New
York Times calls them "noth-
ing less than flawless." In
March ; Michael Grant, Vice-
chancellor of Queens Univer-
sity, Belfast, Northern Ireland

Play Ball With LTL

A baseball game is never over until the last man is out.

Unfortunately, because of the hours set by the school, on
week nights Agnes Scott students must sometimes leave an
Atlanta Braves' game early in order to return by 11:45 p.m.
There is no such rule for a group returning from a concert.
Students attending ,, Dr. Zhivagd"were not required to leave be-
fore it was over.

The situation became ridiculous during opera week when a
student attending a ball game with a professor's family had to
leave before the game was over. Yet, at the same time no one
was required to miss the last act of the opera which ended
later than the baseball game. In this instance it would have
caused no inconvenience to the Dean's Office to wait for this
Braves' fan.

There is also confusion because the policy is indefinite.
Some students calling from the stadium are given permission
to return a few minutes late while others are not.

In fact, this question should not often be a problem. The
Braves' games starting at 8:05 p.m. are usually over between
10:30 and 11:00 p.m. This leaves plenty of times to get back
to school. However, some policy should be formulated for the
few instances when this is not so. We see no reason why
Scott students should not be allowed to stay until the end of the
Braves ball games.

Something New

Student Art Exhibit in Danathe signs advertised. What we
found was something new to our campus. Arts Council
and the senior art majors planned an exhibit of student work
and a reception during Thursday chapel time.

The exhibit gave all students a chance to see exactly what
kind of work is being done at Scott and some of it is very im-
pressive. Let's hope that the Thursday exhibit and reception
will set a precedent and that we will be provided similar oppor-
tunities in the future to become better acquainted with student
art work.

Student
Protests
Censor

Dear Editor,

Great boasts are made here
about our possession of acade-
mic freedom (perhaps to de-

emphasive the underveloped
state of social freedom), yet
I wonder if academic freedom
can exist in an easy relation-
ship with certain censorship
traditions.

I am speaking of the censor-
ship of such student productions
as Black Cat and senior opera.
Of course, neither of these pro-
ductions is the most important
thing in the world; still it is
galling to the students who par-
ticipate in these creation to be
faced with intimations of dis-
trust concerning their good
taste.

It is not so much the objec-
tions the censors raise (which
are few students being ge-
nerally able to maintain good
taste), as it is the fact that
there mast be censorship which
does not seem in accord with
the freedom and trust that we
extol as a benefit of our sys-
tem.

Many students have a good
critical sense themselves, and
are, I think, quite capable of
censoring something that they

ir ran mum

have produced, and which they
desire to be successful.

Sincerely,
Poppy Wilson

'Unkind

55

Dear Editor,

After observantly observing
the actions of many members of
the student body during convo-
cation, I feel compelled to make
a comment or two about their
unkind behavior.

I use the word unkind, because
I feel that painting one's nails,
reading one's neighbor's or
one's own magazine, sleeping or
studying is extremely unkind
particularly in the presence of
such a distinguished guest as
Mark Van Doren or Eudora Wel-

ty-

Furthermore, I doubt serious-
ly if Dr. Alston, Dean Kline or
the student body president feels
that even minimum courtesy
has been accorded him under
the afore- mentioned circum-
stances.

It seems to me that anyone
who had the foresight and in-
genuity to be accepted as a stu-
dent at Agnes Scott College has
enough courtesy and patience to
sit alertly through convocation
for a half hour one day a week.
Signed,

Jane D. Mahon

The Wonderf ulness
Of Cosby

Those of us who have craved Bill Cosby in
general for years and his 4 I Spy" role as
Alexander Scott (Scottie) in particular since
September were ecstatic Monday night when
he was awarded the Emmy for best leading
actor in a dramatic TV series.

Bill Cosby is a unique man, a remarkable
man. It is not simply that he is a Negro. He
IS the first Negro ever to win an Emmy for a
leading part; indeed, he is the first Negro
ever to have a leading part, since ' Amos and
Andy" at least. And his obviously deeply-
felt thanks Monday to NBC for "having guts"
was justified.

But it was not his race that handed Cosby
the prize over the other popular, and deser-
ving, contenders "I Spy" co-star Robert
Culp, "Fugitive' David Jansen, and "Man
From U.N.C.L.E." David McCallum. Cosby
won because, in addition to his helpful athletic
good looks, he is a fine actor and, in words
he himself would use, "a funny guy."

It is that special Cosby-Scottie humor that
has captured for "I Spy" wide popularity.
Actually the show offers plenty besides funny,
good-looking Cosby and Culp. Filmed on lo-
cation on one of TV's highest budgets ever,
the series features Hong Kong, Japan, South-
east Asia, Mexico (including those beautiful
buildings of the University). Next year, the
action moves into Europe, North Africa, and
the Near East. With interesting background
appropriate to the setting, the U.S. agents
carry out believable assignments involving
dope smuggling, defection, Southeast Asian
war.

So give it a try, Wednesday, 10 p.m., chan-
nel 2. "I Spy," and Bill Cosby especially,
make at the least a good study break, at the
most a thoroughly delightful experience in
itself.

Offensive?

On the darker side of recent affairs, I am
genuinely concerned about the extraordinary
interest taken by some girls around here in

In Memoriam

Judith Evelyn
Broadaway

July 2, 1944- May 20, 1966

the boys that other girls date. There are
those who find others' dates "offensive"
on the campus and have complained to mem-
bers of the dean's staff, who have relayed
the message to the girls involved. It seems
that this has gone a bit too far. The only way
we can live with any degree of social free-
dom is for each student to date the people
she pleases within the dictates of her own
conscience and without the pressure of other
students. However "offensive" the situa-
tion may be to some observors, we must
remember that dating involves only two peo-
ple.

Van Doren

During his recent stay on campus Mark
Va Doren spent some informal time with a
number of students. To several girls loung-
ing on the Winship steps he related this in-
cident of his stay.

As he was leaving Walters by the front door,
a signed dangled before him: "Hey, Charlie I
How about an autograph?" He grabbed the
paper and signed. As soon as he had finish-
ed writing, the paper was jerked rapidly
into the unknown above whence it came.
(Would you believe Walters balcony? What
about it, freshmen?)

Hunting

Have you heard about the Hunt. Based on
the movie 'The Tenth Victim," the game
is sweeping mid-western universities with
students and faculty alike out to kill. It was

begun at Oberlin where a computer matched
hunters and killers. (An interesting point:
Are you better suited psychologically to kill
one person than another, even in fun?)

Victims are simply notified they are being
hunted by a player; hunters set out to "kill"
their prey by a method technically feasible
(one point) or technically brilliant (two
points). The first hunter to capture ten
points wins the game and a party in his hon-
or. Outstanding "kills" cited by Time
include the effects of high voltage wires
(stretched rubber bands) and lasers (flash-
lights). Scott tries have produced elaborate
and deadly alarm systems in door knobs,
poisonous gas capsules in mailbox locks.

Revealing Dream

Are those ads true to life? Well, one of
our more prominent students dreamed she led
an academic procession in her slip. The
faculty was a bit disconcerted, but she no-
ticed nothing wrong.

Students Have Money!

National Advertising Service
reports the following findings on
student spending: The average
amount of available spending
money per student is $980 at
the beginning of the school year.
That amount to over four and
a half billion dollars to be spent
every year above fixed costs
for room, board, and tuition.

Forty-four per cent own their
own cars; they spend 450 mill-
ion dollars a year on gas and
oil alone.

At ten cents, the 2,278,000 stu-
dents (40 per cent) who drink

a cola beverage at least once
a day represent sales of $2,
293,000 a week.

*****

Students also consume 557,000
candy bars, 1,281,000 sticks of
gum, and 891,000 cookies daily.
*****

During 1965, 1,689,000 student
travelers spent 306 million dol-
lars in the following vacation
spots alone: New York, Cali-
fornia, Florida, Canada, Mexi-
co, Europe, Caribbean, Hawaii,
and Burmuda.

*****

Of coed, 76 per cent use eye
make-up every day. 1,370,000

male students shave with a ra-
zor blade daily and 1,893,000
own electric shavers

Students take over a million
vitamin pills daily.

In colleges and universities
there ar almost three mill-
ion camera owners and 617,
000 guitar players.

Now doesn't that make you feel
part of a significant group.

sel String Quartet
markable, Unique

Eta Chapter of Sigma Alpha
Iota sponsored the Atlanta
String Quartet Tuesday, May
17 in a performance of Haydn's
String "Quartet in D minor"
Op. 76, No. 2, and a new work,
"String Quartet" by Dr. H.
Richard Hensel.

This program was the first
of a proposed series of con-
certs to encourage the perfor-
mance of new music.

The members of the quartet
Martin Sauser and Robert
Harrison, violins; John Adams,
viola; and Donovan Schumacher,
cello are all performers in the
Atlanta Symphony. While, for
this reviewer, the quartet has
not played together enough to
achieve the sensitive shadings
and balance that is characteris-
tis of excellent quartet playing,
they, nevertheless, gave a fine
performance.

The Haydn was steady and, for
the most part, clearly done,
and the long structural sweep of
Dr. Hensel's work was realized
quite effectively.

Since the feature of the pro-
gram was the first performance
of Dr. Hensel's "String Quar-
tet," this review will center
its attention on this work. In
the reviewer's opinion, it is a
truly remarkable string quar-
tet.

The overall design is unique
in that while it concentrates
so intensely on the logical pre-
sentation and development of a
structural set of purely musi-
cal ideas and their interaction
with other musical ideas, it also
speaks on another level, one
which suggests the life process
itself with its growth and change
through the deep and profound
experiences which shape it.

The entire work, based on a
rondo form, consists of three
movements which present the
interaction of a theme and its
three subsequent variations
with three episodes. The epis-
odes are all written in deriva-

by Adelia MacNair

tions from traditional forms
concerto grosso, rondo, and
chaconne. They not onlv serve

called the Research Writers'
Bureau Ltd., was established
in the metropolitan area recent-
ly in response to widespread de-
mand amongst publishers for
articles on academic subjects.
The firm is reported to be the
first organization of its kind to
concentrate its efforts entirely
on selling campus- written ma-
terial.

According to Richard Fen-
nelly, director of the literary
agency, there are thousands
upon thousands of periodicals,
ranging from the smallest jour-
nals to some of the largest
"slick" magazines, which need
well-researched student manu-
scripts. He reports that some
of these pay up to 10 cents
per word for this material.

"Academic journals are us-
ually the first and too often the
last place students consider as
an outlet for their work,'' Fen-
nelly says. 'This is lamen-
table because there are nume-
rous semi-popular magazines
which pay decent money for re-
search writing. They cover a
wide field of interest, includ-
ing science religion, history,
medicine and business." Vir-
tually every area of college
study has some representation
in this type of periodical, ac-
cording to the firm's director.

The new agency, which does
not return manuscripts unless
first queried with a descrip-
tion of the paper, is located
at 95-31 104 St., Ozone Park,
N.Y.

the work as points of repose
interspersed between the in-
creasingly dramatic themes,
but in a much more vital and
yet subtler role they themselves
are moved and colored to an
extent by the thematic varia-
tions which precede them, re-
sponding very sensitively to
these variations, and thus,
creating an exciting unity of di-
rection throughout the three
movements.

Dr. Hensel's harmonic voca-
bulary does not strain to be
novel. His harmony reflects
what might be called a twelve-
tonal-center system a kind of
writing many other composers
have perhaps restlessly pass-
ed over too quickly in favor of
a twelve-tone system., Conse-
quently, his dissonances be-
come even more dramatic since
they contrast greatly with his
use of mild points of repose.
This harmonic approach re-
wards us with such me Ti trable
moments as the lovely chaconne
at the beginning of the third
movement.

Although this was Dr. Hen-
sel's first string quartet, he has
handled this very difficult me-
dium in a skillful way. He wea-
ves a variety of the instru-
ments' possibilities into pat-
terns of interesting and fresh
sounds.

The Agnes Scott community
has heard the choral works,
'The Kingdom Between", "Let
Christ Arise", and "Nine Re-
sponses for Women's Voices,"
the dance suite, 'Through a
Glass Darkly," the orchestral
work, "Overture 1964, " and now
Dr. Hensel's "String Quartet,"
Written within the last three
years, these works show a de-
velopment and growth which
make us anticipate with interest
his future writing.

Where Do You Study?
Most In Room, Library

Betty Walters: X)n my bed or in library
when I can't avoid it,"

The question was "Where do you study and
why do you prefer that particular place?"
The answers were varied and, in some cases,
surprising.

Debbie Potts: "Because I have no light
in my room in Inman,I study in the library."

Jane McCurdy: 'The library has proven
the best place on campus for me to study."

Becky Davis: "Studying takes me to sev-
eral places, Buttrick, the stacks in the li-
brary, and the basement of Presser."

Frances Wadsworth: "I find that the base-
ment of Winship and the library are the best
places for me to study."

Barbara Dowd: "I choose between the li-
brary and my room mostly the library."

Linda Lou Colvard: "Why the library, of
course I"

Kathey Stubbs: "Really I don't study, but
when I have to, I usually go to Buttrick or
study in the cottage.'

Patty Williams m "I study in my library
carrel."

Sue Rose: "In a Campbell lab."

Leigh McCoogan: 'The best time and
place is in the hall after 11:30 when every-
one is in bed."

Suzanne Mallory: "In the library. I
can't study in a noisy room."

Anne Felker: "Frankly I don't. Some-
times at breakfast or between the dining hall
and Buttrick. I write papers in my room."

There were also a few anonymous respon-
ses to the question:

"In the basement; it's too noisy upstairs."

"In my room; I hate the library; can bear
the basement if necessary; sometimes it's
too noisy upstairs."

"In the basement; it's much too noisy
upstairs."

"In my room; it's too quiet downstairs and
I can't help watching the people.''

"In the Walters' study smoker; I like the
sophisticated company and I have nicotine
fits."

' 'I study on second Buttrick because I like
to be in an empty classroom. There I can
spread out and study aloud if I want to. The
library is good for long, concentrated study,
but the chairs in the biology library are much
more comfortable."

"I can do regular studying in the dorm,
but I like to write papers in Buttrick and study
for tests in the library. In Buttrick you're
freer you can spread out more."

"I find it sometimes easier to sleep in the
library than to study there."

Tradition Falters:
Five Co-eds Enroll

A relatively unique thing has
happened at Agnes Scott this
year. For the first time in a
while, there have been co-eds
on campus- co-eds who attend
classes.

Les Garber a junior at Emory
University, is a humanities ma-
jor. At Scott, he is taking
drama courses. He recently
had a role in Fielding's Tom
Thumb, which was presented at
Scott-that of the botton half
of a giantess. Mr. Garber re-
sides in Decatur, Georgia.

Luke Lovett is a sophomore
political science major at
Emory University. He is tak-
ing Astronomy 153 at Agnes
Scott because of his 'love of
science". His home is in Or-
lando, Florida.

Also from Orlando is Ollie
Matthews, who is also taking
Astronomy 153 from Dr. Cald-
er. He is a junior biology and
chemistry major from Emory
University. His claim to fame
is a second cousin named Eddie

Matthews, who plays baseball.

Auditing personality and child
psychology is Jerry Fussell,
who is a senior at the Georgia
Institute of Technology. He is
a mechanical engineering ma-
jor, and is very interested in
psychology. He is from East-
man, Georgia, and is the owner
of a luxurious two-tone head of
hair (the bottom half being
a beard).

The fifth co-ed is Dave Cooke
from Emory. An English major,
he is also taking astronomy
here. He plans to go into avia-
tion and feels the course could
be valuable.

His impressions of Agnes
Scott include a "very pleasant
atmosphere, particularly in
range of the student-professor
relationship." He adds that he
has "enjoyed the central heat-
ing system of the campus as
seen in front of the library."
He also promises that Scott
students will see him again
next year.

Blackfriars Looking
Ahead To Next Year

"The wonderful thing about
the new board is that it's almost
all enthusiastic sophomores,"
rising sophomores, that is.
Mary Helen Goodloe, the new
president of Blackfriars, made
this statement as she herself
spoke enthusiastically of Black-
friars for next year.

Planning has already begun
for next fall. A giant among
Blackfriars, Poppy Wilson, is
chairman of the new play- read-
ing committee which will be
choosing the fall play in the near
future.

Mary Helen invites the col-
lege community to suggest any
plays that it would like to see
Blackfriars produce next year.

Executive officers of next
year's club are: Frances Fore-
man, vice president, Jeanette
Wright, secretary, and Sally
Barr, treasurer.

Behind the scenes flipping
switches, hammering boards,
sewing on trim, and making
thunder is the technical crew.

It is under the direction of the
Stage Manager, Frances Fore-
man-
Jane Morgan and Mary Pat
Walden are in charge of cos-
tumes, Sally Barr, lights, Caro-
lyn Owen, make-up, Janet Hun-
ter and Susie Wilson, proper-
ties, Carolyn Gray and Mar-
garet Calhoun, scenery, and
Lynn Pedigo, sound.

Other members of the board
include: Sandra Earley and
Paige Dotson, publicity, Peggy
Barnes and Helen Davis, pro-
grams, and Diane Grey, busi-
ness manager.

The new officers and board
will be working under a re-
vised constitution next year.
One of its two major changes
is already in effect; the new
board was appointed after pe-
titioning, rather than being
elected.

The other major change rede-
fines requirements of member-
ship and states the three kinds
of membership: apprentice,
active member, and inactive
member.

Riding Classes Hold

The riding classes from Scott

Representative
Weltner Asks
Lower Age

Georgia's fifth district Con-
gressman Charles Weltner has
introduced into the House a
bill to set the minimum voting
age at 18 in national elections.

As well as the old argument
that men who are old enough
to fight are old enough to vote,
Weltner calls attention to other
factors. Among these is the in-
creasing youthfulness of the A-
merican population. Within a
short time more than half the
population will be under 25
years of age.

At present there about 8 mil-
lion people between 18 and 21.
Weltner points P that 18-
year-olds may participate in
many activities, including the
Peace Corps, the Olympics, the
ministry, and the armed forces.
Why, then, he asks, are they
denied the basic rights of ci-
tizenship?

The voting age is lower than
21 in four states now Welt-
ner's home state of Georgia,
(18), Alaska (19), Hawaii (20)
and Kentucky (18).

A change such as Weltner
advocates would involve a con-
stitutional amendment.

classes for the competition: be-
ginning, Intermediate, and Ad-
vanced Canter Classes, and a
Drill Class.

There will not be a jumping
class, but some of the advanc-
ed riders may give a jumping
demonstration. According to
Sharon, the show should be
particularly interesting since
this will be the first time that
a drill class has been included
in the show.

Everyone who is taking rid-
ing spring quarter will be re-
quired to participate in the show
unless there is a conflict in
class schedule.

Trophies will be given for the
Most Improved Rider and the
Best Rider in the show.

Remember to mest in front

Wins Again

PROFILE editor Ann Roberts
has been selected to participate
in a summer seminar on Is-
sues of Higher Education, spon-
sored by the United States Stu-
dent Press Association.

USSPA will cover all ex-
penses, including transpor-
tation, for the five-week session
at St. John's College in Anna-
polis, Maryland.

The seminar for 20 editors
of college or university papers
all over the country will deal
with what students are interest-
ed in their responsibility to
control their own activities,
curricular and extra - cur-
ricular.

The group will be divided into
sub-groups to deal with the role
of the university in society, the
structure of the university, what
goes on in the classroom, and
the role of the student.

Each sub-group will develop
freely within this frame, with
reading, discussion, and criti-
cism of each other's writing.

Following this meeting the
participants will represent
their respective newspapers at
the USSPA Congress at the Uni-
versity of Illinois.

The following week the Na-
tional Student Association Con-
gress will convene in the same
campus in Champ aign-Urbana.
The student journalist have been
invited to remain, if they wish
to publish a daily paper for the
congress, where Scott will be
represented by student body
president Lynne Wilkins and
NSA coordinator Helen Roach.

Recently the PROFILE re-
ceived further attention from
the U.S. Student Press Asso-
ciation. The following item ap-
peared in a USSPA BULLETIN:
story on results of a survey
taken among members: "None
of the weeklies are self-sup-
porting, and their budgets range
from $3000 (Agnes Scott Pro-
file) to $43,000 (Boston U.
News).

Summer Brings Office
Move For Dr. Alston

During the summer months,
the long-anticipated office of
Dr. Alston will be christened.
The spacious room will over-
come the shortage of filing,
library, and sitting space of the
present office. The first-floor
Buctrick room, once a class-
room, will house all of Dr. Als-
ton's personal books, which
have been previously shelved in
the library.

The new office promises a
change in decor from the pre-
sent corner office. Lined with
a crisp golden carpet, and bor-
dered with beige walls and floral
drapes, the room will feature a

new ensemble of furniture in-
cluding desk, sofa, wing chair,
lamps, and conference table
with matching chairs.

Adjacent to Dr. Alston's of-
fice, the new business room for
Bertie Bond is complete with
the latest in official files and
a small kitchenette for coffee-
making or a coke break.

The plans for the present of-
fice have not been completed.
The room will probably be con-
verted into a waiting room for
visitors to Butlrick or into an
office for an official Butt rick
receptionist.

Freshmen Break
Swimming Records

Last Thursday evening swim-
ming records fell as the fresh-
men and sophomores battled
in the spring swimming meet.
The first record broken was
in the 80-yd, medley relay.

The freshman team consist-
ing of Janice Autrey, Lou Frank,
Sheril Phillips, and Kathy Van-
sant posted a time of 48.7
sec. to cut .3 sec. off the old
record time which had been set
by the freshmen last fall. La-
ter, Lou Frank churned to a new
record of 30 sec. flat in the 40-
yd. breast stroke, bettering the
old record of 31.1 held by J.
Randolph of the class of '65.

The freshmen dominated the
remaining four speed events as
well. In the 4-yd free-style,
Sheril Pnillips won over Lin
Russ. Janice Autrey paddled by
Claire McCoy to win the 40-
yd. backstroke.

The 6-yd. individual medley
found Sheril Phillips outlast-
ing Claire McCoy. And finally

in the 80-yd free- style relay,
freshmen Lou Frank, Kathy
Vans ant, Mattie Lea Sayrs, and
Janice Autrey swept past the
sophomore team of Lynne An-
thony, Anne Gilbert, Irene Knox,
and Lin Russ.

The sophomores showed their
strength in the form swimming
and in diving. In the front and
back crawl, soph Anne Gilbert
bettered freshman Jane Todd.
Courtney Tuttle glided past
Kathy Vansant in the breast
and side stroke event. As the
only entrant in diving, Lynne
Anthony captured the event for
the sophomores.

The final tally placed the
freshmen first with 46 points
and the sophs took second with
39 points.

In competition this year, the
freshmen have won all speed
events and now hold all records
except for the 80-yd free-style
relay.

Fellowships Available
For Creative Writers

A new annual writing fellow-
ship program directed to the
college senior has been announ-
ced by Mr. Harry Scherman,
Chairman of the Board of the
Book-of-the-Month Club.

Officially titled "The Book-
of-the-Month Club Writing Fel-
lowship Program,' the pro-
ject will be administered by the
College English Association un-
der a grant from Book-of-the-
Month Club.

Beginning with the academic
year 1966-67, which coincides

with the Book-of-the-Month
Club's 40th anniversary, the
program calls for fourteen fel-
lowships of $3,000 each. For
the purposes of the program,
the United States and Canada
have been divided into seven
geographic sections, each sec-
tion having approximately the
same college population. Two
fellowships will be awarded in
each area annually.

Mr. Scherman pointed out
that although there are many
fellowships available for those
who wish to pursue scientific
and scholarly investigations,
there are relatively few fellow-
ships available to the young
creative writer.

"It is our hope," Mr. Scher-
man said, ' that this program
will help rectify this situation.
We have designed it to give the
gifted senior an opportunity to
develop his creative talents in
the year following his gradua-
tion.

'The fellowships will be giv-
en without any strings attach-
ed to allow the recipient the
widest possible latitude free

from immediate economic
strain," he added.

The program is open to any
person who will be a senior in
an accredited college or uni-
versity in the United States or
Canada on December 1, 1966
provided, however, he is nomi-
nated by a member of the En-
glish Department of his college.
Applications must be postmark-
ed no later than midnight, De-
cember 1, 1966.

The first year's winners will
be notified May 1, 1967 and
awards given on June 15, 1967.
Application blanks may be ob-
tained from any college Eng-
ligh Department or by writing
to: Dr. Donald Sears, Director,
Book-of-the-Month Club Writh-
ing Fellowship Program, c/o
College English Association,
Howard University, Washing-
ton, D.C. 20001.

Wilson Holds

Discussion

Last Tuesday^ May 24^at 4:30
p.m. Miss Carrington Wilson
led a discussion with students
on "Current Campus Problems

As Miss Wilson said the dis-
cussion covered "a potpourri

paratory material to enable the
group to have a common basis

Princeton Offers
Ungraded Hours

PRINCETON, N.J, (CPS) -
Nearly three-quarters of
Princeton University's under-
graduates have elected to use
the school's new pass-fail op-
tion a system under which they
take one course for which they
are not graded but receives a
'pass' or "fail".

The Princeton faculty said
that in establishing the option
they hoped to broaden the range
of course choices for under-
graduates . More than 200 cour-
ses, ranging from modern Eur-
opean painting to digital com-
puter theory, are being taken
on an ungraded basis by 2,300
students.

A breakdown by classes re-
vealed that 78 per cent of the
seniors, 77 per cent of the jun-
iors, and 79 percent of the
sophomores elected to use the
option while 65 per cent of the

freshmen participated in tne
program.

Four of the five courses se-
lected most frequently are in
the arts and literature, the sur-
vey shows. The art and archeo-
ology department, one of the
smallest at Princeton with only
12 departmental majors this
year, currently has more stu-
dents taking courses with the
pass-fail option than any other.

A student may take any course
on a pass-fail basis except one
in his major department.

The Princeton experiment is
one of a number now underway.

The California Institute of
Technology faculty voted last
fall to drop grades in freshman
courses to make the transition
between high school and college
smoother. Freshman level
courses are now evaluated on a
pass-fail basis.

A similar pass-fail system
for first and second year stu-
dents is being designed at Wash-
ington University in St. Louis.

"Intense concentration on
making grades is a dispiriting
factor that limits the student's
chance to get an education,"
explained Dean Robert R. Palm-

er when he announced the study
of the system.

Dean Palmer felt grades
would have to be continued in
upper division work since they
have become a standard for ad-
mission to graduate and pro-
fessional schools.

However, only uppercl ass-
men at Carleton College in
Northfield, Minn., are given the
pass-fail option.

At Goddard College in Ver-
mont, no specific courses are
required, class attendance is
not checked and no grades are
given.

School officials say their plan
allows every student to work at
his own speed without worrying
about keeping up with the rest
of the class.

A similar experiment is be-
ing tried at San Jose State Col-
lege in California, where the
student can study without re-
quired courses, tests or grades.

Tech Prof
Cites Greek
Moon Travel

The possibility of travel to
the moon has been one of man's
dreams for at least 2, 300 years,
according to a Georgia Tech
professor. Professor John O.
Eichler has. made a lifetime
hobby of the history of man's
interest in interplanetary trav-
el. At Georgia Tech he teaches
a course in engineering astron-
omy.

He says the earliest mention
of travel to the moon he has
found is in a story by a Greek
named Lucien written about 240
B.C. In Lucien's tale earth
people are caught up in a water-
spout in the Mediterranean
which lifts them up to the moon.
On meeting the moon people,
the earthmen said, in relative
literary translation: 'Take
Me To Your Leader."

(Patti) Dorrier, a transferee
from Wellesley, is by contrast
to others of us, wildly enthus-
iastic about being at Scott.

Asked to compare Agnes Scott
and Wellesley, Patti gave a
very diplomatic answer. "Scott
is smaller, which is better; in
fact, I think that Scott should
probably be ranked higher than
Wellesley."

A philosophy major with
special interest in Kantian and
Existential thought, Patti is
awed by Mrs. Walker's in-
telligence, and considers Dr.
Greene "a joy to have in
class."

Her home reflects her inter-
est in art, his being filled with
self- re finished furniture, her
oil portraits, and flower ar-
rangements. "I would have
liked to major in art," she con-
fesses, "but started it too late
to have enough hours."

Having attended Westminster
High School, Patti is no strang-
er to Atlanta. Both she and her
husband are from "around
Nashville, Tennessee."

Future plans are nebulous,
since after her husband's grad-
uation, they must cope with the
Selective Services. Hopefully
next year they will be able to
take a job with the Dupont Com-
pany in Camden, South Carolina,
and Patti will attend the Uni-
versity of South Carolina at
Columbia.

Because of technical prob-
lems such as the grading of
exams and compilation of
grades, as well as a printer that
does not work from Friday noon
to Monday morning, requires
this late date for the paper.

Graduation issues will be
mailed free to seniors at their
home addresses. Underclass-
men will be able to buy a copy
for 15 cents to be mailed to
them also.

A PROFILE representative
will be in the mailroom Monday
through Thursday afternoons of

Prices And Hemlinesl
Cause And Effect? \

(ACP) Hemlines have shot
up like prices in the last two
years. The rise of hemlines in
Vogue correlates with the lines
on the financial charts in the
Wal l Street Journal , the Campus
Chat, North Texas State Uni-
versity said in an editorial.

The question is whether the
increase of prices causes the
shortening of skirts or the
higher hemlines create an af-
fluent economy.

Higher hemlines may be
causing an air of happiness
which causes men to spend
money more freely. However, if
the healthy economy causes the
short skirts, then the American
businessman has more in-
centive than the principle of
capitalism to keep the bull on
the stock exchange.

Women are not taking the sit-
uation sitting down. They can't.
A coed cannot sit down in class
without feeling like something
on display in the window of a
surgical-supply store. Accord-
ing to Newsweek , however,
manufacturers are finally re-
sponding to the problem of re-
vealing stocking tops and hos-
iery suspension systems.

Meanwhile, President John-
son is advocating an increase
in taxes to discourage soar-
ing inflation. The tax increase
is not to be harsh enough to
have any bearing on Wall
Street.

In the next few years, prices
and hemlines are both predict-
ed to remain high, and Ameri-
cans will be showing off their
prosperity.

Atlanta, Ga. Nov, 9 - God,
creator of the universe, princi-
pal deity of the world's Jews,
ultimate reality of Christians,
and most eminent of all divini-
ties, died late yesterday during
major surgery undertaken to
correct a massive diminishing
influence. His exact age is not
known, but close friends esti-
mate that it greatly exceeded
that of all other extant beings.

The cause of death could not
be immediately determined, but
the deity's surgeon, Thomas J.
J. Altizer, 38, of Emory Uni-
versity in Atlanta, indicated
possible cardiac insufficiency.
Assisting Dr. Altizer in the un-
successful surgery were Dr.
Paul van Buren of Temple Uni-
versity, Philadelphia; Dr. Wil-
liam Hamilton of Colgate-Ro-
chester, Rochester, N.Y., and
Dr. Gabriel Vahanian of Syra-
cuse University, Syracuse, N.
Y.

LBJ

In Johnson City, Tex., Presi-
dent Johnson was described by
aides as "profoundly upset."
He at once directed that all
flags should be at half-staff un-
til after the funeral. The First
Lady and two Presidential
daughters, Luci and Lynda,
were understood to have wept
openly.

Both houses of Congress met
in Washington at noon today and
promptly adjourned after pass-
ing a joint resolution express-
ing "grief and great respect
for the departed spiritual lead-
er." Senator Wayne Morse,
Democrat of Oregon, objected
on the grounds that the resolu-
tion violated the principle of
separation of church and state,
but he was overruled by vice
President Hubert Humphrey,
who remarked that "this is not
a time for partisan politics."

Reaction from the world's
great and from the man in the
street was uniformly incredu-
lous. "At least he's out of his
misery," commented one
housewife in an Elmira, N. Y.
supermarket. "I can't believe
it," said the Right Rev. Hor-
ace W. B. Donegan, Protestant
Episcopal Bishop of New York.

de Gaulle

In Paris, President de Gaulle
in a 30-second appearance on
national television, proclaimed
"God is dead I Long live the
republic I Long live France 1"
News of the death was included
in a one- sentence statement,
without comment, on the 3rd
page of Izvestia, official organ
of the Soviet government. The
passing of God has not been dis-
closed to the 800 million Chi-
nese who live behind the bam-
boo curtain.

Public reaction in this coun-
try was perhaps summed up by
an elderly retired streetcar
conductor in Passaic, N.J., who
said: "I never met him of
course. Never even saw him.
But from what I heard I guess
he was a real nice fellow.
Tops." From Independence,
Mo., former President Harry
S. Truman, who received the
news in his Kansas City bar-
bershop, said: "I'm always
sorry to hear somebody is dead.
It's a damn shame."

Ike

In Gettysburg, Pa., former
President Dwight D. Eisenhow-
er released through a military
aid the following statement:
"Mrs. Eisenhower joins me
in heartfelt sympathy to the
family and many friends of the
late God. He was, I always
felt, a force for moral good in
the universe. Those of us who
were privileged to know him
admired the probity of his char-
acter, the breadth of his com-
passion, the depth of his intel-
lect. Generous almost to a

fault, his many acts of kind-
ness to America will never be
forgotten. It is a very great
loss indeed. He will be miss-
ed.'

From Basel, Switzerland,
came word that Dr. Karl Barth,
venerable Protestant theolo-
gian, informed of the death of
God, declared: "I don't know
who died in Atlanta, but who-
ever he was he's an impos-
tor.

Surgeon

Dr. Altizer, God's surgeon, in
an exclusive interview with The
Times, stated this morning that
the death was "not unexpect-
ed.' "He had been ailing for
some time," Dr. Altizer said,
"and lived much longer than
most of us thought possible.'
He noted that the death of God,
had, in fact, been prematurely
announced in the last century
by the famed German surgeon,
Nietzsche. Nietzsche, who was
insane the last 10 years of his
life, may have confused "cer-
tain symptoms of morbidity in
the aged patient with actual
death, a mistake any busy sur-
geon will occasionally make."

Dr. Altizer suggested, "God
was an excellent patient, com-
pliant, cheerful, alert. Every
comfort modern science could
provide was made available to
him. He did not suffer-he
just, as it were, slipped out of
our grasp.''

Husband-Hunters
In Wrong Place

(ACP) There's a wide-
spread belief on college cam-
puses that many women stu-
dents are in college for one rea-
son to find a husband.

But according to a study made
by Paul C. Glick, author of
"American Families," mar-
riage-minded coeds are in the
wrong place.

The State Press, Arizona
State University, reporting on
Glick's study, said his statis-
tics show that although the chan-
ces of marriage for the college-
educated female are better than
they were in 1940, chances are
still better for the woman with
only a high school education.

The older a man is when he
marries, the study indicates,
the greater age difference be-
tween bride and groom.

Since the male usually mar-
ries a younger female, he has
a wide market while in college.
Since a woman usually marries
up in age, however, her market
grows smaller.

As a rule, men marry women
of the same or lower level of
education. In the woman's case,
the situation is reversed. Also
the higher the education level,
the greater the importance of

men having higher levels of
education than women.

These findings together lead
to this conclusion: extended
education and increased age
place a woman in a marriage
market in which the number
of available older males with as
much or more education is
limited.

Because the man can marry
down in age and education, the
educated woman faces increas-
ed competition by younger and
less educated women for the
available unmarried men,

The unmarried man with a
high level of education is in the
best position for mate selec-
tion. The woman with the same
age and education, however, is
very limited in her choice.

The study also revealed that
in three-fourths of all marriag-
es, the bride is younger than the
groom. The bride is older
than the groom in only one
seventh of all marriages.

All these figures seem to in-
dicate that a woman is more
likely to receive a Mrs. degree
upon graduation from high
school than upon graduation
from college.

MOCKINGS
FROM
RAMONA

Dear Mom,

Well, I have really been cul-
tured this week I went to the Art
Festival in Piedmont Park. Ac-
tually, I went twice, under very
different circumstances. One
night I had this date who in-
sisted we go. I couldn't figure
out why we sat in the car for
two hours; I didn't see any
paintings anywhere. He said he
was just a great art lover.
Well, I don't know about the
art.

I went back the next after-
noon with some girls, though,
and saw all the exhibits. It
was really neat* Wet, but neat.

Then I went to the dance con-
cert* I really got the feel of
dancing, and I wanted to try
it so much. I did try out just
a few steps afterwards, in front
of Dana and the entire au-
dience. Yes, Mom, I'm writing
this from the Infirmary.

Nothing much is wrong. Ijust
twisted my s aero- Illy a. Whoops I
Did I get that wrong? I'm just
thinking about that man from
U.N.C.L.E. because I just saw
the new movie. I am confident
it will win a top award next
year. It is really a spectacular
dramatic achievement. I don't
know why everyone thinks
"Doctor Zhivago" is so great.

Truly the big social event
of recent days was my trip
to Stone Mountain. When Ka-
they Stubbs asked me to help
out with the outing for the kids,
I must say I wasn't completely
thrilled. Then she let it leak
that Chris Babbage was going.
He's that cute boy who was in
Black Cat, remember? At the
very mention of his name I
left my tests and papers and
ran half the way to Stone Moun-
tain.

Everything went well while
we climbed the mountain. We
lost only three kids, which is
amazing considering Kathey and
I both were there. The weiner
roast was great fun, too. I
built the fire, thanks to my
terrific Girl Scout training.

Then we roasted marsh-
mellows and everyone was one
big gooey mess. Thencame the
real excitement. I discovered
that Chris has a brother, Mal-
colm. He went back to look for
the missing children andlkind-
heartedly offered to help. It
was a most successful venture.

Yesterday washonor'sday and
I certainly am happy for all the
winners. I was, however, a little
disappointed that I didn't win
anything. I tried for the book
award and I don't understand
not getting it.

They said my collection was
too one-sided, but I don't see
that.I included all the U.N.C.L.E.
and James Bond books. And I
don't think Ihe Grouj or Win-
ni e the Pooh are at all alike.

And of course, I included an
Emily Loring collection. You
know how I've always craved
them. I still can't decide whe-
ther my favorite is I Take This
Man or Give Me One Summer .

I also thought I might get
the Blackfriars acting trophy
for a show - stopping per-
formance of "Give My Regards
to Broadway" on the hall one
night.

Exams approach, so IU go
study. Tell Butch 111 see him
soon.

Love,
Ramona

Computer Dating
Brings Surprises

THE PROFILE

MAY 26, 1966

PAGE 7

Anyone who doubts the ability
of computers to match up dates
had better not let Donna Levy
hear her say it. To Donna the
computer is infallible.

It Works!

The first night after spring
vacation Donna got a telephone
call from one of her computer
dates. They went out the fol-
lowing weekend and have seen
each other every day since then.

Fred Briggs was halfway
down Donna's computer list and
she was number six on his. Two
weeks after their first meeting
they were pinned. The plans
now are that Donna will become
Mrs. Fred Briggs in August.

No wonder she likes the com-
puter so much.

Other experiences with the
system has been varied.

There have been several quite
humorous incidents resulting
from this match-making ma-
chine. In the following factual
account the names have been
omitted to protect the innocent?

Ideally Suited

At least two girls on campus
are convinced that the compu-
ter works. One freshman and
the boy to whom she is lava-
liered filled out their ques-
tionnaires without consultation.

At long last, after three years
of dating and being lavaliered
since December, the machine
let them in on the secret that
they are ideally suited. Each
got the other's name twice.

The first six names on the
list are your ideal dates. The
others are the boys for whom
you are the ideal date. One
Scottie got twenty-eight names
after the first six.

Surprised

A sophomore started dating a
guy about two weeks after fill-
ing out her questionnaire. When

she received her list, she was
pleasantly surprised to find
that his name was on it.

One junior had been upset for
weeks because she couldn't find
a ride to South Carolina to visit
her brother and his family.
Imagine her amazement when
her first computer date to call
was from that town. She had a
very nice spring vacation in
South Carolina-

Not Compatible

Not all girls who filled out
the list were so lucky. One
sophomore had a quite unusual
experience. Early in the fall she
had had a blind date to a big
fraternity weekend.

Saturday night of the weekend
she found it necessary to drive
back to Scott. In the process
she misjudged a distance with
another car in the parking lot
and managed to scrape up the
side of her date's car.

They were not very compati-
ble. The computer apparently
didn't agree. They still, how-
ever, are not dating.

The Computer Quest has giv-
en many blind dates conversa-
tion. It has cheered up many
girls after winter quarter. It
has also made a lot of money
for whoever was running it.

"Dear Abby"

Let's just hope that it wasn't
the boyfriend of a Scottie who
wrote to "Dear Abby" to com-
plain that his fiance had broken
their engagement because she
did not get his name on a com-
puter list.

Opera Brings
Season To Close

by Susan Aikman

Opera Week came to its grand
climax on Friday night, May 13,
with the performance of "Iota"
by the Senior Met of 1966.
The gala event was held in
Gaines Chapel.

The fantastically dressed
crowd began arriving in small
numbers and then, as is normal
with TRUE society, came in lar-
ger numbers. Or maybe it was
just that the Von Trapp family
sang in together.

The opera served as another
occasion for a demonstration.
No event would be complete
without one these days. This
time it was an anti-bourbon
campaign by a group claiming
to be the Salvation Army.

As for the performance itself
well, would you believe Felicia

McCallum was the hair-do.

The audience was enraptured
by the dramatic and unique story
of a love triangle with one ob-
tuse angle, Ominous, the daugh-
ter of the Pharoah Spam-an-

along very well with the drama.
"Row, row, row your barge"
was an especially effective
number.

Another spectacular section
of the opera was the triumphal
march. It was not only spec-
tacular, it was very surprising.
Judy Ahrano and Louise Smith
proved to be very able horses.

It seemed to be the general
opinion of the crowd that this
year's opening closing night was
very well produced, acted,danc-

Manuel Speaks Out For College Students

Editor's Note: This article was
adapted from NEWSWEEK by
Jane D. Mahon.

They are everywhere - al-
most 18 million young Ameri-
cans crowding into classrooms,
spilling into the streets, filling
cars and stores and beaches.
They have been probed and
prodded and psychoanalyzed.
And yet, as behavioral scien-
tists Bernard Berelson and
Gary Steiner point out, the years
between childhood and adulthood
still remain an "ill defined no
man's land. .

Everyone knows all about
them.

Reporting to Italian readers,
the magazine L'EUROPEO re-
cently concluded, "America's
teenagers : make up, as we shall
see, the most pitiless, irreduci-
ble, indestructible dictatorship
in the world."

Manuel

And Manuel Maloof, an At-
lanta tavern keeper, says he
can "pick 'em up around the
eyes, the wrinkles around the
eyes, and the way they wear
their hair and the way they
talk. It's hard to define, but it's
the challenge they give you."
Of course, Maloof admits, the
older he gets the harder it is to
tell: "Sometimes it looks like
everybody's under 21".

Manual Maloof was inter-
viewed by the PROFILE as to
his opinion of college students.
His immediate reply was, "I
think they're greatl" Further
statements of Mr, Maloof in
this article were made during
his interview with the PRO-
FILE and show his genuine, in-
telligent concern for today's
youth.

Happiness

Yet young Americans them-
selves can supply some guide-
posts. They think, the NEWS-
WEEK survey discovered, that
the world is "fast-moving,
modern, competitive, and war-
like" "with lots to do" and
not much time to do it in. They
convd through as purposeful,
pragmatic - and prosperous.
As they see it, only a few snakes
slither through their paradise.
One in every five interviewed
thinks the world is "happy",
which is a prerogative of age:
teenage happiness is a private
affair that cannot be dismis-
sed by a conspiracy of glum old
folks.

This is one of the things that
bothers Manual about college
students. He finds them preoc-
cupied with pleasure seeking,
often at the expense of others.

It is this attitude of "just
not thinking", as Manuel puts
it, that is distrubing.

Teenagers despise being call-
ed a group, for fear of criticism.
Yet a group is what they are,
whether they admit it or not,
whether they realize it or not
- and few do realize the extent
to which they are forced to be a
group.

Adolescence

At the root of most bonds that
tie these youngsters to each
other is adolescence. Intel-
lectuals talk about a crisis of
identity in today's adult world,
but that has been old hat for
ages to the adolescent, a per-
son in search of himself with
all the advantages of an explor-
er using a compass and a sex-
tant in an iron mine on a cloudy
night.

If teenagers take refuge in
their supposed sameness, they
also differ markedly from ster-
eotyped adult notions of what
they are like.

A solid majority are build-
ers, not breakers - not hop-
headed hoodlums and hoodie ttes
churning up the drag strips
with their hot rods, rolling in
the hay thumbing their noses at
organized society and getting
blind drunk on today in the be-
lief their tomorrows will run
dry.

They like it here. They want
what the adults want them to
want. They are essentially
content with their lot. They feel
at one with the world today and
have little doubt their tomor-
rows will be even better.

Individuality

The PROFILE'S man-on-the-
street authority on college stu-
dents, Manuel Maloof, tends to
agree with NEWSWEEK's
"group" idea. He is concern-
ed by the fact that college
students seem most concerned
with themselves, how they should
dress, how they look. He says
that they feel they must "play
the act". Manuel says that for
college students, "it is not
smart to talk about being dedi-
cated." He finds an appalling
lack of "honest spontaneous
individuality**.

Easy

Living

When the Gershwins wrote
their song, it was only in the
summertime that the livin' was
easy. Now it is a year-round
thing for all but the outermost
outsiders. A majority find life
is easier for them than for
their parents, "who had to cut
wood and carry water from
wells."

Are they spoiled? Of course,
and spoiling for more. Accord-
ing to Manuel this is the fault
of the parents. "They have
given too much to kids." He
also wonders if parents "would
be any different if they had
been born in our age."

To their dismay, parents in-
creasingly find themselves low
bidder for their children's con-
fidence and attention. Home life
is being preempted by the high
school where the kids spend
most of their day.

Grand Canyon

High school also separates
the iteenager's . world as clean-
ly as if the United States were
riven by the Grand Canyon in-
stead of the Continental Divide.
On one side are the blessed,
who have earned the right to go
on to college and probably pros-
perity.

On the other are the damned,
who drop out, stop short, or, at
best, go on to vocational train-
ing schools and sharply cir-
cumscribed earning potential.

Cheating

Performance in school can
change the course of a life. De-
mands are stringent. Each
year brings more new things to
learn in the same number of
weeks. Exams, therefore, be-
come hurdles that must be ne-
gotiated: over the bar, by know-
ing, or under, by cheating.

By teachers' and adminis-
trators' reports and their own
admissions, high school stu-
dents copy one another's home-
work, plagiarize from critical
essays, carry crib notes into

"Coco-Colo*' ond "Coke" ore registered trade-marks which identify only the product of The Coca-Cola Company

I

Coke

class and swipe exam ques-
tions from teachers' offices.
Moreover, the guilt associated
with cheating is diminishing.

Adolescence is not a partic-
ularly intellectual time of life.
The teenager is preoccupied
with things which touch him di-
rectly. According to Manuel
Maloof, "College students are
not as occupied with mankind
as they were ten years ago.
They are occupied with them-
selves."

Not all teenagers, however,
ride the same curling wave to-
ward tomorrow. Some stand
apart from the club: the poor,
unemployed, the juvenile crimi-
nals, the joyless boys and glee-
less girls in the parts of Ameri-
ca's cities that any kid who
could would flee like the plague.

Rebellion

The effects of the current
campus rebellion may take time
to trickle down to many high
schools. Overt rebellion is
easier for the college student
than for the high school student
still within parental purview.
Nonetheless, many sources of
discontent are similar. The
modern teenager is subject to
pressures he cannot compre-
hend, and carries a heavier load
than the sousaphone player in
the marching band.

High schools, once melting
pots, are pressure cookers.

In the opinion of prominent
educators and psychologists,
the teenage population, instead
of riding roughshod over help-
less adults, is actually being
segregated, shunned, manipu-
lated, discriminated against and
forced to live in a delux ghetto
where tastes and mores of a
distinct subculture flourish only
for lack of meaningful integra-
tion into a stable adult society.

Enthralled by the marvel of
themselves, the young know net
what the future holds, but they
think they know who holds the
future. Some of the shaggier
types will be shorn of their
locks and will not, like Samson,
lose too much strength. Steadi-
ly they will expand to keep pace
with their expanding universe,
tasting, trying, flying or falling,
getting to do what they are now
only yearning to do.

cercises.

Seniors Pick English
As Favorite Courses

What courses rank highest in
popularity on the Agnes Scott
campus among the senior class?
To answer this question, the
PROFILE conducted a survey
which questioned the graduates
about their favorite courses.

The results showed thit, of
those who participated in the
poll, courses in English take
priority for 48 per cent of the
seniors, history 14 per cent,
religion, philosophy, mathe-
matics, and sociology 8 per cent
each, and French 4 per cent.
Only 2 per cent recorded no
subject preference.

Specifically in the English
department Dr a Hayes* Shakes-
peare and Russian fiction
courses, Miss Hutchen's mod-
ern British novel study, Miss
Trotter's modern poetry
course, Mrs. Pepperdene's
Chaucer courses, freshmen
English, the independent study
program, and "kiddy" litera-
ture at Emory proved to be the
most beneficial and favorite
academic selections among the

seniors during the past four
years.

As reasons for their choices
the seniors commented "My
favorite course was Shakes-
peare, because of Dr. Hayes
need I say more?" 'The mod-
ern British novel course was
organized, informal, with lots
of controversial discussions."
"Independent study gives the
opportunity to do a great deal
of reading... and the opportuni-
ty of working with one profes-
sor." "I liked English 101
where I learned to notice and to
stick my neck out."

In the history department Mr.
Brown's English history, dip-
lomatic history under Dr.
Posey, commonwealth of na-
tions, and Mrs. Philip's Asian
governments course were cited
as favorites.

World religions, cultural an-
thropology, differential equa-
tions, aesthetics, and French
literature were listed as favo-
rites by the respondents.

A.A. Gives Awards
For Spirit, Athletics

Spirit, trophies, and upsets
marked the A.A. picnic held
May 25. At this culmination of
the year's athletic activities,
classes, individuals, and teams
received recognition for their
winning performances.

Before the awarding of tro-
phies, the campus was treated
to a rousing student-faculty
volleyball game won by the
faculty. At the same time, the
finals of the tennis doubles
found Alice Davidson and Judy
Ahrano battling against Eleanor
McCallie and Jane Cox in a
tense defensive marathon. Elea-
nor and Jane finally out-lasted
their opponents with set scores
of 17-15 and 6-2.

After the picnic supper, A.A.
officers and board members
presented an array of prizes
and trophies.

The two most highly prized
trophies of the afternoon were
the Athletic Cup and the Spirit
Trophy. For the second con-
secutive year, the sophomore
class shouted, sang, and other-
wise effervesced, their way to

Class Of '66
Boasts Most
Graduates

In September of 1962, 216
freshmen presented themselves
at Agnes Scott College. Their
class was as large as any ever
admitted up to that time, and it
was destined to have as many
graduating members four years
later as any other class had
had.

Of the entering group, seven-
teen of the girls had early ties
with the college - their moth-
ers were Scotties. Fifty- nine
of the girls made a primary
commitment to the school; they
applied and were accepted on
the early decision plan.

There were two National
Merit Scholars in the group; two
other girls received Presby-
terian scholarships and three
Heugenot Scholarships.

Four years later, 154 girls
graduated. Of this number 139
entered with the class, eight
transfered from other classes
and eight from other colleges.

Seventy-three girls left the
class before graduation; three
of these are graduating with
later classes. About 35 went
to other institutions. Accord-
ing to Dean Kline, a common
reason for leaving was mar-
riage.

Twenty-one and a half per
cent of the total student body
hold scholarships; of this num-
ber nearly one-fifth were sen-
iors. Two of the fourteen Na-
tional Merit Scholars at the
college were seniors. Fifty
girls did practice teaching this
year and 22 were married be-
fore graduation.

In the final computation, 73
per cent of the girls admitted
on early decision graduated and
61 per cent of those on regular
admission. Sixty-four per cent
of the total class received de-
grees from Agnes Scott.

Our Sisters

by Diane Dixon

Two of Scott's long-awaited publications arrived last week
and were met with mixed emotions by students.

The spring quarter edition of AURORA finally arrived last
week with a new face. AURORA'S slick black cover is a great
improvement over the home-made look of the past.

Inside, AURORA boasts of a greater variety of really in-
teresting student work than we have known in the past. It is
sleek modern work and is pleasantly presented.

The new SILHOUETTE has caused quite a stir. The mortu-
ary purple cover with its black and white prints has not exactly
been an esthetic favorite with many students.

However, on the inside the SILHOUETTE is fresh and crea-
tive. More color pictures are definitely an improvement.

There is some quite good photography included in this annual,
but some of it is disappointing, such as a photo of the Juillard
String Quartet so blurred that one cannot tell the cellist from
the cello.

Also, many of the page captions are weakly juvenile while
others are poor.

One of the most frequent comments has been that students
got rather tired of seeing a few people all the time. What was
going on outside of Dana Hall?

In spite of the technical details that mar the SILHOUETrE
it is an original and alive book. Congratulations staffers 1 1

Three Sophomores Take
Junior Year Abroad

by Louise Breuchert

Next year, 1966-67, Scott will
be losing three of its outstand-
ing students from the junior
class. But the loss will not be
permanent; it will only last one
year. Pat Stringer, Ann Teat,
and Robin Woltz are all parti-
opi.ting in the Junior Year
Abroad Study Program.

Ann and Pat are going to
France and Robin will be study-
ing in Spain, but each is affilia-
ted with a different school. Ann
is going with the study program
at Sweetbriar and Patwill study
under the program at the Uni-
versity of North Carolina.

The three girls will leave
early in September, 1966, plan to
stay over the following summer,
and will return in the fall of 1967.
Each, however, is taking a dif-
ferent boat: Robin will board
the INDEPENDENCE, Pat is
taking the S.S. FRANCE, and
Ann will leave on the QUEEN
MARY.

All three study programs are
quite similar in procedure as
well as content and the following
resume and comparison of then
is interesting.

Ann, en route to Paris, will
spend her first six weeks in
Tours where her language
fluency will be reinforced by in-
tensive study in conversation
and composition. Pat will un-
dergo the same rigorous study
at Lyon where she will remain
for the year's study at the Uni-
versity of Lyon.

Huge

She says it is huge with quite
a different atmosphere from
Scott, with an enrollment of
24,000. The first semester Pat
plans to take phonetics, French
compositon and civilization.
Her grades in these subjects
will determine what she can take
the second semester, which
ranges from math to philosophy.

Ann will leave Tours and go to
Paris where she will live during
the greater part of her school
year. She will be studying at
several different institutions:
French literature at the Sor-
bonne, art history at the school
of the Louvre, and political
science at the Institut d' Etudes
Politiques, which is the only sc-
hool of its kind in the world.
Ann says her course of study is
almost identical to that in which
Anne Morse participated last
year.

Robin, who will live in Mad-
rid, plans a course of study
similar to Ann's in Paris,

though hers is in Spain. She will
attend the Instituto de Estudian-
tes Hispano-Americanas and
will have professors from the
University of Madrid.

She will study art history at
the Prado with an added attrac-
tion of a lecture a week by a pro-
mi inent contemporary artist.
This is comparable to a drama
course Ann will take in which
students will see one play a week
in Paris. In addition Robin will
study Spanish geography, philo-
sophy, and twentieth century
Spanish literature.

Each of the girls will be liv-
ing with a family whom she will
not meet until she arrives. Ro-
bin is going with a small group
of less than thirty students, but
one of them is a friend from her
home, Charlottesville, Virgi-
nia. She says she is excited and
looking forward to their seeing
each other. The group with
which Ann will go is larger, over
100 people, including 95 "Yan-
kees" from schools such as
Yale, Princeton, and Vassar.

Holidays

All three girls have already
planned some definite traveling
for their holidays. Pat and Ann
want to see several different
countries surrounding France.
Ann is meeting some friends
from Davidson and will spend
either Christmas or New Year's
in the Alps. The following sum-
mer she plans to tour with her
parents.

Robin, however, said she pre-
fers to stay in Spain the whole
year and go to France the fol-

lowing summer under a pro-
gram such as the Experiment in
International Living. By staying
in Spain, she hopes to visit
Granada, Segovia, and Sevilla,
all in the southern part of the
country.

Christmas

If the three girls can arrange
it, they would enjoy getting to-
gether at Christmas but regard-
less of this, they plan to keep
in touch with each other and with
us when they have time. They
all hope for free time but most
likely it will not be very abun-
dant.

All three girls were indefinite
about their future plans, but fur-
ther study was generally agreed
upon. They also mentioned the
diplomatic service as a possible
interest.

Robin has studied Spanish
four years, two in high school
and two in college, and Pat and
Ann have studied French four
years and seven years respec-
tively. All three seemed to place
more emphasis on their present
achievement rather than their
previous background. Pat was
especially encouraged since she
decided upon, was accepted, and
arranged her entire trip after
spring vacation this year.

Ann, Pat, and Robin were all
indescribably excited and en-
thusiastic about their plans, but
each acknowledged her grati-
tude to her present professors,
and the dean's staff for all their
help. Pat said, "They're all
dears, my parents first and
Dean Kline, in that order."

There is no doubt that
Reynolds Price is a generous
man. And this fact, more im-
portantly than any other, ac-
counts for the beauty of his
book.

A G enerou s Man is about
small-town North Carolina peo-
ple with names like Rato and
Rosacoke Mustian. But Mr.
Price is not writing to exploit
their prototypes in a quaint
fantasy or a piece of venomous
social protest. He builds his
novel around the events and
people which fill three days and
which fuse to effect the final
change in Milo Mustan from boy
to man.

Yet Price's artistic skill, his
own generosity, his wisely
tempered exuberance, his abil-
ity to see things for what they
are worth something - all these

give us a sense that any other
three days could be seen as just
as important, that Mr. Price
could create just as rich a
novel from them.

A_ Ge nerous Man is not pre-
tentious, neither is it simple.
Its world is one that is real but
is seldom seen through to. It
embraces the subtle complexi-
ties and honest beauty, found
by one who has seen life, has
lived it - and has known that
it is good.

MISS MELISSA ANNIS CILLEY LOOKS OVER THE GUEST BOOK
in the Dana Fine Arts Building where she has served as hostess
this year.

Dana Draws 8139 Visitors

"My heart leaps upl"
This is just one of the reac-
tions of the 8139 visitors whc
have toured the Charles A. Dana
Fine Arts Building from its
opeaiig on September 23, 1965,
to May 23, 1966.

These visitors came from 38
states and 15 foreign countries.
Other comments written in the
visitor's register include beau-
tiful (five times); terrific; for-
tunate building; amazing, won-
derful building; fantastic show I;
architecture superlative; un-
believable; better than D.C.;
takes one's breath; Bieckfriar's
much deserved building; inspi-
rational I II; and powerful, most
powerful, and yet entirely ex-
quisite, a salutary experience.

Miss Cilley reports that there
have been nine art exhibitions,
five receptions, and a week of
dramatic art workshops. There
have also been presentations of
Spanish, Greek, German and

English plays. These consti-
tuted ten evenings of plays.

In addition to all this there
were three musical evenings,
three pottery and ceramic ex-
hibits, six public lectures on
drama and art, and a consider-
able number of tours by clubs
and schools in the area.

Some of the visitors came on
tours from colleges in North

characterize next year's acti-
vities. Of course, exact pro-
grams have not been arranged
as yet, but Linda has indicat-
ed that A.A. will be working on
\ a number of undertakings.

Basic concerns such as Hub
parties, sweatshirt sales, and
blue horses, will be continued.
Sponsorship of the self-defense
program, blood drive and Sigma
Chi Derby will also be maintain-
ed, it

Varying the program some-
what, A.A. will consider the
additional projects of arranging
a first-aid course and of work-
ing with Christian Association
to provide recreation for girls
at DeKalb Juvenile Homes.

Participation and individual
sports will be the theme of many
athletic activities. The point
system, constantly being re-
vised, will underscore each stu-
dent's involvement. In addition,
students will have an opportu-
nity, in the form of question-
naires, to give their opinions of
what sports and activities they
want initiated, continued, or
stopped.

A.A. is now investigating new
intercollegiate and semi-athle-
tic programs. Elizabeth Coo-
per, basketball manager, is ne-
gotiating with Emory sororities
to arrange basketball competi-
tion. Plans to establish swim-
ming and tennis teams for in-
tercollegiate competition will
materialize under the direction
of tournam ent coordinator Win-
kle Wooten.

Social Council

The largest part of Social
Council's planning during the
last quarter has gone into prep-
aration for orientation.

Social Council will, as in pre-
vious years, hold the faculty-
student reception for freshmen.
This is to be held on September
21, and will be formal. The
reception provides an oppor-
tunity for the freshmen to meet
the faculty and staff.

The open house for arriving
freshmen and their parents will
be held Friday, September IS,
in the Hub. Also, the Swap
Shop will again be open to help
students with their room deco-
rations. Social Council hopes to
have additional space in the Hub
for this purpose.

Social Council will hold the
fall fashion show for the fresh-
men and is also working with
Orientation Committee for a
more organized and effectual
rush program.

The board will also work with
Mortar Board for the Black Cat
dance at the end of orientation.

Other plans for 1966-67 in-
clude the winter dance weekend.

Saturday night will be formal
with music provided by an or-
chestra. On Friday night a
popular dance band will play.

The dress policy has been
looked into and certain changes
are in the planning stage. The
present policy has been evaluat-
ed and will be enforced.

A very tentative plan for the
coming year is the Wednesday
night casual. If possible, the
Hub will be open to fraternities
weekly on Wednesdays after
chapter meetings. A juke box
may also be obtained for the
Hub.
