By C. Eugene Hubbard

The month of October finds
the 1958 election year drawing
near an end with tension and
bitterness between Democratic
and Republican candidates on
the increase. Both parties are
lashing from all angles at each
other.

Democratic presidential nomi-
nee Adiai Stevenson has chosen
President Eisenhower's H-Bomb
policy as tne of the major issues
on which he plans to fight. Stev-
en.son intends to carry his fight
to the nation by means of radio
and television in an attempt to
continue his discussion on Eisen-
hower's policies.

Republican presidential nomi-
nee Elsenhower, on the other
hand, said that Stevenson and
his democratic running mate Es-
tes Kefauver are making a "rec-
ord of clattering campaign ora-
tory" and cited as examples, the
issues of "big business" versus
"small business", the draft, the
H-bomb tests, national defense,
and peace. Mr. Eisenhower also
accuses Mr. Stevenson of politi-
cal irresponsibility in implying
that the republican administra-'^
lion cares little or nothing for
tl-ie "Little Man."

Progress on the Suez crises has
been slow in developing. Accord-
ing to United States Secretary of
State John F. Duills. Soviet For-
eign Minister Dmitri Shepilov
wants to keep the Suez dispute
sizzling. However there's a
chance for a Suez settlement be-
fore the November election. If
(his happens it will be hailed as
a person:ii triumph for Mr. Dul-
les. Even though the Egyptians
have been trying to soft pedal
the Suez question they are be-
ginnlns to feel the economic ef-
fects of tlie Western boycott.

Complaints have been made
(hat Negroes in the South are be-
in^,- deprived of tlieir voting
rights, 'ihe United States Depart-
ment of Justice askod Congress
to invest ia,ate whether Negroes
are being deprived of voting
lights in Pierce county, Georgia
rnd in OvachUa and Rapides
Parishes. Lousiana.

The American League Pennant
winners. New York Yankees won
a seven game world series. In
this series the Yanks had tlie
aid of two young pitchers who
c o n t r 1 b uted magnificently in
contributed megnificenfiy in
helping the Yanks to win. In the
fifth game of the series Yankee
pitcher Don Larson pitched the
first perfect game ever to be
pitched in the history of a world
series game. In the seventh game
young Johnny Kucks pitched
the Yankees to baseball's World
Championship when he pitched
a three hitter, defeating the
Dodgers 9-0

With the ending of the 1256
world series, the Brooklyn Dod-
gers are off on their tour of the
Pacific and Japan. Casey Sten-
gel has been named manager of
tlie Yanks for two more years.

How to Win Friends

And Influence
Professors

Oklahoma Daily writer Ed
Turner has come up with a new
way of college living which, in
keeping with the times, he calls
"classmanship." Briefly, he says,
it means the knack of frustra-
ting a well-meaning professor to
such an extent that he will want
to quit his chosen profession as
an educator and go to work foi
a munitions factory. Here are
some of his rules:

"First of all: always be late to
class. Upon entering NEVER look
meek or apologetic for disturb-
ing the class. Appear surprised
as if this section was scheduled
to meet at this time or even look
hurt that they could go on with-
out you. Many an accomplished
classman has caused the pro-
fessor to thumb quickly through
his class bulletin to see if per-
haps they should have met at
8:35 instead of 8:10.

Disagree openly with the pro-
fessor. An economics instructor
says in his most profound and
sonorous tones: "The theories of
Adam Smith are the foundations
of our modern system of eco-
nomics." You say in an audible
whisper: "But that's So passe"
. . . making him look as if he had
an old pair of plus-fours and
was shouting 23 skidoo instead
of delivering a lecture.

Leavemanship is another ef-
fective gambit that will add
sparkle to every class room-
About 10 minutes before the
class is over slam your book
shut, zip up your notebook, tuck
your pencil neatly in your pock-
et and begin tapping your foot
spasmodically, whistling to your-
self, if you are a poor whistler.
At five minutes before the hour,
scoot up en the edge of your
seat, alternating your gaze be-
tween the wall clock and your
watch, shoaling "X minus 5.
X minus four, X minus three"
. . . right ap until the end of
the hour."

YOU HAVE TO COME TO CLASS

'ACP) Freshmen and sopho-
mores at the University of Con-
necticut are faced with compul-
sory class attendance this year.
Under a new ruling, they're ex-
pected to attend all registered
classes and if, for any reason.
a Freshman's number of absen-
ces equals the number of credits
for the course, his case will be
called and reviewed. Penalties
will range from restriction and
probation to suspension from the
University. University officials
think the new ruling will raise
the standards of academic
achievement among the fresh-
men and sophomores.

President Addresses
First Assembly

On Thursday October 4. during
the regular all-college assembly.
Dr. W. K. PajTie. President of
Savannah State College, deliv-
ered his Annual Message to the
jnembers of the college family.
The President extended greet-
ings to those present.

He stated "I believe that we
have all assembled here at Sa-
vannah State College because
vv^e believe in education." If we
go forth with this concept in
mind, all of our experiences will
coincide with this beUef. This
premise will influence our ef-
forts and activities."

President Payne further stat-
ed that "Our assemblies are a
part of our educational program.
For this reason they are compul-
sory . . . Assemblies are not call-
ed unless it is believed that they
will contribute to the education-
al program. Education covers
more than the courses one
lakes."

The approximately one thou-
sand persons assembled in Mel-
drim auditorium heard the Presi-
dent state that "Many of you
are already facing problems that
you liad not anticipated. You
will face many more," One
should long for the ability to
face problems instead of the ab-
sence of them. There are many
things to be done other than at-
tending college but attending
college is the main job at Sa-
vannah State College now.

Students were reminded that
"You are living in an age filled
with the wonders of civilization.
The opportunities that are pre-
sented to college men and wo-
men today are greater than at
any other time. No matter what
your state may be today as far
as your clothes, friends, and the
like are concerned, you are the
possessor of a great opportunity
if it is your privilege to attend
college today. We believe that
Savannah State College has a
reservoir of advantageous edu-
cational experiences for the
thirsting student. If you look
hard enough and seek earnestly
enough, you will find them. If
you will, you can make this aca-
demic year 1956-57 the most il-
luminating in your experience."

Young lady presenting park-
ing ticket at police station: "Did
one of your men lose this? I
found it on my windshield."

Teacher: "Egbert, if you're not
chewing gum. what is that lump
in your mouth? Candy?"

Egbert: "No ma'am. I'm soak-
ing a prune to eat at lunch."

The Creative Corner

J, Campbell, Jr.

"A thing of beauty is a joy for-
ever." says the poet John Keats.
But precisely what is this thing
which brings to the individual
such eternal joy? Is it a face
which with the years withers
away like the green leaves of
Spring with the coming of Win-
ter? A building that crumbles
before the onslaught of a gigan-
tic tidal wave or an earthquake?
Is beauty a lasting work of art
reaching Its culmination in the
enigmatic smile of Da Vinci's
Mona Lisa and the delicate
symmetric balance of the Gre-
cian statue, Venus de Milo?

Is beauty a relative concept
arising out of the personal sub-
jective feeling of an individual,
when confronted with a pleasing
external object? or is it an ab-
solute. Invariable, universal
concept which brings a feeling
of joy, as expressed by Keats,
forever to him who perceives it?
Is beauty eternal or simply a
fleeting phenomenon, which
once awakening the senses to a
supreme state of felicity, fades
softly away, leaving one with but
a dim, image that is never fully
recaptured again?

What is beauty? the schools
of thought are many and there
are numwous theories but I
will tell you what beauty is.
Beauty is the rising and setting
of the eternal sun; an ephemeral
ghmpse of a rainbow which gent-
ly fades away at the end of a
shower on a cool summer's day.
Beauty is the jungle beauty is
the quiet, peaceful, flow of the
tiny brook in the Dakota Hills.
Beauty is the wild, savage, un-
tamed, beat of the tom-toms.
echoing across the dark, un-
lighted, African continent the
restrained, melodious, and har-
monious blending of a Classical
symphony, floating gayly, bhss-
fuUy. through the walls of a
great concert hall. Beauty is the
coming of Winter the sad pass-
ing of Spring. Beauty is the un-
seen wind, rushing across plains
and prairies, singing its joyful
song to all.

Beauty then, transcends na-
tional boundries favors no one.
but manifests itself to all who
can recognize and appreciate its
qualities. Beauty abounds in na-
ture, and in the art which man
has created. Objects of inesti-
mable beauty surround us every-
day. It is up to us to learn to
appreciate the beauty with which
nature and man have so richly
endowed us.

Random Thoughts

COLUMBUS, OHIO (ACPI
All those stories about college
athletes who can't spell their
own names fall to pieces as a re-
sult of this story. It's about Kent
State University and comes via
the College Crossroads column
in the Ohio State Lantern.

It seems Kent State has a var-
sity filled only with athletes,
each of whom participates in a
varsity sport and also holds down
an outside job. That dorm rank-
ed above both the all-fraternity
and all-men's grade averages for
the past quarter.

SSC Presents
First Lyceum
Program

The Lyceum Committee of Sa-
vannah State College presented
on Thursday evening, October
18, at 8:15 P.M., the Robert Jof-
frey Dancers, one of the newest
dance companies on the Ameri-
can musical stage. This group's
accent was on entertainment and
the production was designed to
bring a new idea in dance pro-
grams. The program consisted
of a combination of romantic
ballet, dramatic dance in the
Spanish style and musical com-
edy dance in the best American
tradition, with a hberal sprink-
ling of song.

Three leading young American
dancers headed the company of
seven : Glen Tetley . Beatrice
Tompkins and Gerald Arpino.
TV fans readily spotted Mr. Tet-
ley who has danced on nearly
all the major video revues. He
has also been featured in opera
ballet, in Broadway musicals
and in concert dance here and
in Europe, Since 1951 he has
been a TV "regular" at Christ-
mas time as a dancing shepherd
in the annual telecasts of Gian-
Carlo Menotti's opera, "Amahl
and the Night Visitors."

Beatrice Tompkins has toured
the U. S. and Europe as soloist
with the Ballet Russe de Monte
Carlo and with the New York
City Ballet. The dark-haired
dancer was also prima ballerina
of the San Francisco Opera.

Gerald Arpino is another young
veteran of TV, who has also been
featured on Broadway in "Annie
Get Your Gun" and "Bless You
All" and with the May O'Donnell
Modern Dance Company, Latin
America has also had him as
soloist with the Nana Goilner-
Paul Petroff Ballet.

A triple threat supporting per-
former in the company is an ex-
traordinary young man named
John Wilson, He demonstrated
his gifts as a dancer, a baritone
and a pianist. At the age of 25,
Mr. Wilson has also been teacher,
a prolific composer and arranger
and a director of dramatic works.

Choreography and staging of
the program were done by Seat-
tle-born Robert Joffrey whose
ballet productions for Ballet
Theatre, for the Ballet Rambert
of London, and for the NBC Tele-
vision Opera Theatre have
marked him as one of the lead-
ing newcomers to the dance. One
of his original ballets was fea-
tured on the program which was
held in Meidrim Auditorium,

The Periscope

Cooi)eratlon, aerurdlni^ to the
Mrrrlam-Wcb/iter Colleclati; Dlc-
lluniuy, means worklnu Jointly
for a miiLual benefit. Thu .same
word when ii.sed to describe the
actlnn.s o{ our sLudents means
Ju.st the oppo.slLe, Why Ls It tliat
someUilnj; has caused the school
spirit to sink to such a low level?

It Is the oi)lnlon of this col-
umn that somelhlni^ has killed
the school .s|)lrlt of our students.
One no lon(j:er hoars the exprcs-
.slon, "Lel'.s i;lve It the old col-
U'lU' try." Even the Greek let-
ter ori',anl/atluiis are lagKlni^
Where Is the competitive spirit
that we usually I'lnd In groups
of that type? It may not have
been noLleetl. b\it our homecom-
Ini^ activities were aHeeted by
this very low cooperative spirit.
Wherever floats and cars were
belni; decorated, very small
groups were dohiK all of the
work. Each of these groups was
part of a larger group thai
should have been working. Even
thouuli this eohuim realizes that
this Is a subject much loo broad
to speak about, it also feels that
these ob.sorvatlons must be
placed before the public.

Returning to the subject of
honiec.on\lng, I should like to
make mention of the fact that
the float of the Campus Queen
should always be the most boau-

tllul. Yet. only the Student
c;ouncll President and a few
steadfast members of the coun-
cil decorated the float. This
has happened for thi' past three
years, Why Is It that out of an
enrollment of over one thou-
sand, only five people worked
on the Queen's float? It Is the
res|)onslblllty of every student
attending this ln.stltutlon to
work on a jjroject of this type.

This cohunn has expressed the
opinion of a few; It Is up to the
many to decide If this opinion
win stand up under the bom-
bardment of public criticism. At
any rate, t'.ie '';t::t remains, .
school is made up nmlnly of
studenU, regardless of the num-
ber of officials responsible for
administration. Any school is
only so good as the students
that are enrolled. The success
of any school rests on the shoul-
ders of each Individual. He can
let his shoulders sag and drag
the name of the school in the
mud, or he can hold them erect
and carry the school's banner
high.

This column would like to be
quoted as saying: "This Is our
school; let's cooperate with all
of Its programs: they are offered

Six Oav School Wcok In The Making

within the next five years It
may be necessary to hold college
classe.-; on Saturdays to take
care of the additional students
who win be attending universi-
ties by that time. High school
students should be used to that
procedure, because they will
probably be on a six-day week
before the college.

In making this prediction. Dr.
H. J. Sheffield, director of ad-
missions and registration at the
University of Southern Califor-
nia, said that by using Saturday
as a school day. enrollments can
be expanded by as much as one-
fifth.. He sounded the following
warning "don't":

"Don't offer fewer personal
services and less individual help
to students simply because there
appears to be an endless supply
with which to replace your drop
outs.

"Don't push your part-time
student, or students who belong
to some other marginal category,
out of your school without con-

sidering them individually. Real-
ize that nu\ny of our best citi-
zens have worked their way
through college at advanced ages
and in considerably more than
the usual four years.

"Don't limit your enrolhnent
to the number you can accom-
modate In your present dormi-
tory space. Investigate govern-
mental and other housing plans
that will make possible added
enrollment.

"Don't expand your enroll-
ment to a point where you can-
not offer a sound academic pro-
gram. Reecognize that it is
easily possible to do little for
too many.

"Don't be misled Into a belief
that the problems of admissions,
enrollment and retention will be
confined to undergraduates.
Realize that graduate schools,
professional schools, and ad-
vanced study at all levels
through the doctor's degree must
be provided."

By C Eugene Hubbard

For the past tew months all
the world's attention has been
focused on the Middle Ea.st crisis,
where the .seeds of World War
III could be .sprouting.

After Britain and France de-
stroyed the Soviet equipped Air
Force of Egypt, crippled the
small Egyptian fleet, and
wrecked much of the organized
land forces of that country, a
cease-fire followed. Now the
U. N. I.s organizing a Police
Force that will move to enforce
a truce. It has been reported
that the main objective of the
British-French action was to
drive Egypt's dictator, Col.
Gamal Abdcl Nas.ser, from his
position of power; Col. Nasser,
however, still remains in power.
The Suez Canal is not under
control of British troops. It re-
mains blocked. This again is a
failure of British-French move-
ments.

Russia threatened to send
what they termed volunteers for
Egypt H army If Britain. France
and Lsr.icl delay withdrawal of
their troops from Lgypt and
warned that she may use force if
those countries defied U. N.
peace moves.

This Is a move Soviet leaders
have made down through the
years, and on many similar oc-
casions.

Reports have been made that
because Britain feels that the
U. S. failed them in the Middle
Ef\'s^ ;*rl^ls. thejj r.re now plan-
nilig to suppoi L IXed China's bid
for a seat In tlie U. S. The Brit-
ish had agreed to back U. S.
efforts to keep Red China out of
the U. N- for at least one more
year in erturn for U. S. backing
In the Middle East.

The crisis in the Middle East
with Its continued uprisings
leads one to wonder:

What lies ahead now in the
turbulen' Middle East?

Is the Soviet Union plotting
another Korea type war there?

Is World War III in sight?

Can the U. N.'s police force
actually maintain peace in
Egypt?

Can the U. N. order any nation
around?

Was not the Korean war called
a police action?

President Dwight D. Eisen-
hower has appointed Dr. Felton

ships, according to a formal an-
nouncement by the Department

fying that the President of the
United States name "10 United
States citizens, prominent in
public and private educational

old, during which period nearly
25,000 carefully selected people
from the United States and
twenty-eight countries have
been recipients of grants. In
1955, grants were made to 4,358
Individuals, from available funds
of $14,528,467.06; it is expected
that approximately the same
number will be issued this year.

THINGS i>inST BE GETTING
MIGHTY KOrCH

We knew that beef prices were
down, but had no idea they were
as low as this story from the
Kansas State Collegian indi-
cates.

A new depth was reached this
week on the cattle market. A
farmer down in Missouri sent a
2-wek-oId Jersey calf to market.
It sold for $1.25. The sales barn
charges 60 cents for commission,
25 cents for yard fees and 5
cents for insurance.

For a minute, the farmer
thought he had a neat 35-cent
profit. Then the trucker han-
ded him a SI statement for haul-
ing. So. in the end. he lost 65
cents.

Baylor Has Dormitory

For Married Studenis

The $375,000 48-apartment
dormitory Baylor University has
built for married students is be-
coming a "model plan" for oth-
er universities across the coun-
try. Dr. Roy J. McKnight, vice
president, said that business of-
ficers from many other colleges
have inquired about the unique
dormitory plan so that they may
duplicate the ideo on their cam-
pus. Officials of the Home and
Housing Finance Agency also
have expressed favorable favor
with Baylor's pioneering ven-
ture.

"All utilities paid" make the
$75 monthly rental charge for
the completely furnished and
completely modern air-condi-
tioned apartments "phenome-
nally cheap," according to hous-
ing experts. While no break-
down is shown on the bills. Bay-
lor officoals figure that the cost
includes $45 rent on the space
it.self, $10 for furniture. $10 for
utilities, and $10 for the year-
round heatinfi and cooling sys-
tem.

Dr. McKnight and Dean of
Men W. C. Perry ::dreamed up"
the building while facing a
critical need for housing accom-
modations for married students.
The apartment dormitory is ar-
ranged in two separate buildings

comprised of 24 apartments
each. There are two floors, six
apartments on each level on
each side of the building. Long
open porches open on each side.
The building cost, all told count-
ing land, construction and fur-
niture, about S375.000 or about
S8.300 per unit.

N. Y U. Professor

Defends Fraternities

A New York University profes-
sor. Richard D. Mallery, recently
defended fraternies during a
speech before a YMCA in that
city. Said Professor Mallery:
"If the fraternity is what its
enemies say it is. then It is hard
to understand the encourage-
ment and support that have
been given to fraternities during
the past century by the better
American colleges."

The Professor went on to say
that the congenial environment
found in fraternities is of great
importance. He also added that
residence on campus should be
a basic requisite for campus life.

Professor Mallery emphasized
the fact that although a limited
number of students live and
work together in a fraternity,
tolerance for differences of
opinion, high standards of taste,
and good conduct are developed.
He also declared that by demo-
cratic self government in the
chapter house "fraternity men
become better fitted to assume
the larger responsibilities of the
student council and other col-
lege organizations.

Mallery told the YMCA au-
dience that a limit should be
placed on the number of mem-
bers in a chapter. "If there are
over thirty," he warned, "the
chapter will be headed for trou-
ble."

A questioner asked the profes-
sor if fratrnities are the nuc-
leus of bias groups. In reply he
said that "students in fraterni-
ties should be allowed to pick
their own friends."

Book Week
Observance

Nov. 25 to Dec. 3, 1956
Theme: It's Always Booktime

Modern man seems to be on a
twenty-four hour merry-go-
round. One cannot say to him
"If time be heavy on your
hands, do this or that" because
there never seems to be any
time left over at the end of the
day. All America has worked
to put more leisure time in that
twenty-four hours by shortening
the work week. One might well
inquire of the use to be made of
this prized commodity. It is
hoped that some of it will be
devoted to reading. It seems,
however, that reading is fast
becoming a lost art as so many
people now depend on television
and radio for information and
entertainment..

Once each year the Book
World spotlights the art of read-
ing. The College joins in this
annual observance. This season
Powell Laboratory School will
present Marjorie Barrow's play
"The Enchanted Door" in Col-
lege Assembly, Thursday, No-
vember 29. The culminating
activity will be given by the Col-
lege Library diu-ing the Sunday
Vesper hour. Lnmediately after
this program Open House will
be held in the Library.

Won't you take some time to
help your College celebrate Na-
tional Book Week?

Common Goals
Of Everyone

One of the results of the Self
Study Committee at the Univer-
sity of Wichita has been the
formulation of desired objectives
in a university education. The
Committee explained that these
objectives should be common to
all individuals irrespective of
their vocational odbjectives:

1. To develop personal and
social resources and participa-
tio nin activities conducive to
good physical and mental health.

2. To develop effective citi-
zenship through a thorough
knowledge of the democratic
process of political institutions.

3. To develop the ability to
communicate effectively through
the spoken and written word ;
to read and listen with under-
standing, and to converse freely
with persons of divergent in-
terests.

4. To develop an understand-
ing of the historical legacy of
men. its contributions to the
contempory scene, and an un-
derstanding of the history of
the United States.

5. To develop the under-
standing and practice of moral
and spiritual values.

6. To develop an understand-
ing of the basic principles of the
natural science and their impact
on modern society.

7. To develop basic mathe-
matical skills and an under-
standing of them as an instru-
ment of reason.

8. To develop an understand-

Is Co-Ednrolion
Desirable?

New York Unlver.slty Is faced
with the question of whether co-
education is desirable. There
seems to be at least a chance
that the school . . . long a clta-
dl for males . , . will start ad-
mitting female students.

Experts who conducted a
$250,000 study of the University's
operations have urged co-edu-
cation at the earliest possible
date. In support of that action,
faculty members have presented
the following arguments: "Co-
education would make our stu-
dents gentlemen .. . . Our stu-
dents as a whole have not had
social experience . . . tt would
improve the social atmosphere.

On the other hand, opponents
of the co-education move con-
tend that it would destroy what
they call "the desired separa-
tion of the student from his own
environment," They contend
that the University's chief ad-
vantage is that it is not co-ed-
ucational and that to change
this situation would be to rule
out this advantage. They also
say that male students might
lose detachment if the girls
moved in.

Are Entrance
Exams Valnable?

The question of whether ex-
ams such as Junior College en-
trance tests are valuable has
been debated for a long, long
time. The Fresno Junior College
Rampage recntly published this
editorial on the subject:

Many of the students who
take the Junior College entrance
tests which are given each year,
complain that th tests are bor-
ing and time consuming and
completely useless.

Let us consider the facts. Most
students entering college have
only a vague Idea of their
knowledge of the English gram-
mar, literature, and vocabulary.
They don't know wliether or not
they are capable of handling
English lA. Most young people
cannot Judge the amount of fact
tliey are able to retain from
their rending.

Lot's take for Instance a pre
nu'd student and face the hard
facts. This particular student
had better have a whopper of a
vocabulary and an A class read-
ing retalnment percentage. A
foreign language major or an
education nuijor had beer know
his English grammar backwards
and forwards. This Kngltsh en-
trance test shows wjiat particu-
lar Individuals luck In certain
phases of Kngllsh and what
they ned to develop and what
classes are best suited to Llils
development.

As far as the aptitude test is
concerned you nuiy be the typo
of person wlio knows just what
he wants and Just what his In-
Lorcats are. But l)ellove It or not
there are many young people
who have not yet found tlielr
real InteresLs In life and who
haven't the vaguest notion of
what vocation they're best suited
for. By asking the JC student
vt^ry personal questions and
evaluating the answers, test
scoers can determine a student's
Interests and vocational appl-
Lude. And wliat could be more

An amendment to the require-
ments for eligibility to hold a
.scholarship for students attend-
ing the University of Pennsyl-
vania, was announced here by
Douglas Dickson, secretary of
the committee on scholarship
and student aid.

The new amendment states
tl"iat "an undergraduate scholar-
ship liolder nmst attain an aca-
demic average of 3.0 for the pre-
ceding academic year to hold a
scholarship unconditionally for
the n ext academic year."

The amendment also states
that an undergraduate scholar-
.ship holder whose average in
June for the preceding academic
year is between 2.0 and 3.0 may
have scholarship assistance re-
newed for one probationary
year. If his annual average is
less than 3.0 in June for his pro-
bationary year, his scholarship
assistance will be subject to rev-
ocation, Dickson said.

A student in attendance must
have a 3.0 average for the pre-
ceding academic year to be elig-
ible for the initial award of a
scholarship, he added.

There was an earthquake re-
cently, which frightened the in-
habitants of a certain town. One
couple sent their little son to
stay with an uncle in another
town, explaining the reason for
the nephew's sudden visit.

A day or two later, the par-
ents received this telegram: "Am
returning your boy. Send the
earthquake."

Marriage and college can mix,
according to Professor Dakln. He
says that married students usu-
ally make higher grades. Dakln
believes this Is due to the In-
creased security and resiJonsl-
blllly. Students seem to feel that
marriage actually helps their col-
lege work, And, In opposition to
many studies, Dakln said that
the divorce rate tor college mar-
riages Is lower than for the com-
parable highly educated persons.

Couniicntlng on the same sub-
ject, a Kansas minister has said
that college marriages are much
more dependent on the couple's
level of maturity, the degree to
which they want to make a go
of marriage, and their eounnon
Interests than ui)on the Influence
of college life. In other words,
the success of a college marriage
depends upon the same tactois
that influence any nrarrlage.

On Thursday. December 19,
1950 approximately one-flflh of
the student, bo{ly and a portion
of the faculty voted 129-39 In
favor of the recommendations
made by the Connnlttee on Mo-
tor Vehicles and Regulations to
put Into effect on a trial basis,
whereby In the near future Sa-
vannah State win have county
approved school zones, red
blinker lights at the Falllgant
College street Intersection, traf-
fic regulation .signs at the en-
trance to the campus. All
traffic will travel one way in a
counter clockwise direction with
a few exceptions,

The roads that will ri^nain
two-way are; Tayloi- Road from
ALIiletlc Road to Palilgant Ave-
nue, Athletic Road from the
campus to Skldaway Road and
the road between the Home Eco-
nomics building and the laundry
will I'cmain two way. To pre-
vent violations of the rules cer-
tain fines have been recom-
mended and approved and all
cars are to have stickers.

According to the proposed
plans, left turns near the can-
non monument on College street
and at the Intersection of Ath-
letic Road and Campus Street
between Powell Laboratory
School and Herty Hall will be
prohibited, the maximum cam-
pus speed will be fifteen miles
per hour and parking In front
of the College Center In parking
zones longer than ten minutes
will be unlawful.

The proposals require all stu-
dents, staff members and fac-
ulty to .secure a sticker for twen-
ty-five cents and place the
sticker on the lower right hand
corner of the front windshield.
Failure to display the registra-
tion sticker will result in a one
dollar fine for the first offense,
three dollars for the second of-
fense and five dollars for of-
fenses above the second. Fail-
ure to secure stickers and the
violation of other rules will re-
sult in fines identical to the ones
set up for failing to display regis-
tration stickers.

Failure to appear and pay
fines within five days of the of-
fense adds fifty cents to the fine,
excluding Saturdays, Sundays
and college holidays. Should a
student fail to pay his fines, his
grades will not be issued and
credits will not be granted.

Fines will be paid in the comp-
troller's office during its regular
operating hours and records of
student infractions will be kept
in the Student Personnel Office.

Offenses range from speeding
and reckless driving to parking
on the grass and all violators

I'lif Sliidi'iil anil His Itli'tis

By Isiii.-ih Melver

Stuclent.s are olten reminded
that tomorrow they will become
lenders and therefore they
should practice rormulntlng
Ideas nnd foini the Imbit of ex-
pre.sslng these Ideas.

Words such ns these .-sound
very encouranlnn to the stud(}nt
at first. However, they soon r(Ml-
llze that these ])hrases are only
uttered because they .sound
beautiful In democcrntic .socie-
ties.

The mere tact that an Indlvl-
diMil resides In certain sections
of oiu' beloved nemocrntlc so-
ciety prevents one from expres-
shiK his views. In uumy areas
students nnd certnin Rroups of
the iiopidntlon arc not iJcrmltted
to be expressive. They can ex-
press their thlnldnii only ns long
as their Ideas are not contrary
to the existing .sentiments.

Beln^ n resident of certnin
nrcns Is not the only reason why
Individuals fall to express their
Ideas, It nuiny among us who
cncournge the nvernge student
to be expressive were fort\uiate
enough to henr the average stu-
dent express his sincere Idens or
beliefs, chaos would result,

A s t u d e n t Is often en-
couraged to speak up when some-
thing happens or Is happening
thnt he does not condone. How-
ever, It he makes a suggestion to
ehnnge the numner In which
certnin projects are hnnriled nt

prcsent.he will be reminded that
there nre those who know best
becnuse of experience. He will be
told thnt there arc Individuals
who nre hired for the purpose
of advl.sing when the student
gets off the beam. When one's,
thinking Is considered off the
beam, many fall to observe that
whnt was "once off" Is "now
on,"

In many Instances, the ex-
perienced fall to realize where
advising ends nnd where dic-
tatorship begins. It Is snid that
people whose Ideas are not nc-
cei)ted will eventunlly give up
nnd full to be expressive.

Since there Is no single person
or smnll group thnt knows what
Is best, everyone should be given
consideration before any type of
action Is taken, especially If
eveiyone is lesponsible tor the
proper pertormance of the par-
llculni' event or Is affected by
the decision thnt Is made..

It today's students are to be
tomorrow's lenders, some of the
factors mentioned above should
be considered. It is snid that if
old age were the only source of
wisdom, the country's ideas
would be formulated at the
honu-s tor the aged. Evidently
this is not true; those who will
have to lead tomonow should
be given nn opportunity today
to practice for tomorrow's per-
tormnnce.

Those Resolutions

Have you noticed a marked
ditterenee in the behavior of
your friend since he returned to
school from his Christmas vaca-
tion? Does he seem to be more
serious about school, spending
most of his time in the liibrary
studying Instead of sitting in the
Center talking about the various
instructors? Does he mention
such strange sounding names
and places as Egypt, Yemen, and
Ghana? Has he asked you wi>at
is your opinion of the adminis-
tration's new Middle East doc-
trine? If so, you are on the
verge of losing a good friend,
and those happy carefree days
you enjoyed prior to Christmas
will be lost forever, unless you
do something real soon about
the situation.

You have probably guessed the

reason tor your friend's rather
strnnge ways by now but it
you have not the change of
behavior has come about simply
because he has made a few New
Year's resolutions and is doing
his best to keep them. This
means either that you will have
to change, that is, you will have
to find out what Yemen and
Ghana aie, what the new Mid-
die East doctrine is i chances are
you do not know what the old
one wasl, spend your time study-
ing, or lose your friend. Friend-
ship is too precious to let a tew
old lesolutions ruin it, so those
resolutions will have to go.

However, it he has kept them
this long, you are in for trouble,
for anyone who keeps resolutions
for more than a tew days is

Biography as a torm of litera-
ture offers much to a reader. It
has the power of in.splration, ex-
ploration and discovery. It is
the easiest and most natural
bridge from fiction to fact. All
biography should be honest,
simple, and above all. interest-
ing.

The current titles reviewed
here may or may not meet all
of the standards required of a
good biography. Their lasting
appeal can be determined by
time alone. But all of them are
Interesting and highly readable.
Why not see it they meet your
standards for a good book?

Fred Allen, Much Ado About
Me, Such a title might suggest
to a casual observer that hei'e is
another stuffy autobiography.
But such Is not the case at all.
Instead, it is an amusingly told
account of the story of John
Florence Sullivan, of Cambridge,
Mass., who became Fred Allen,
America's wittiest comedian. It
Is also the story of the rise and
decline of that past form ot
entertainment known as vaude-
ville. Although the piesent gen-
eration probably remembei-s Al-
len best as a radio comedian,
vaudeville was his fii-st love. Ed-
win O'Connor, in his epilogue to
the book, says that it is "a rare
and wonderful book by a rare
and wonderful man. who in spite
of having wi'itten liteially hun-
dreds ot the wittiest and most
felicitous letters of our time, did
not for a moment consider him-
self to be really a good writer
at all."

Marian Anderson, My Lord.
What a Morning. Miss Anderson
has recorded the story ot her
lite in a most charming and yet
unassuming manner. She has
often minimized her accom-
plishments and the events which
have happened during her career
especially the Constitution
Hall episode. In spite ot her
modesty and reticence, the read-
er Is able to follow Miss Ander-
son's life from her childhood, her
first public appearance, to the
great concert halls of the world
and finally to her appearance on
the stage ot the famed Metro-
politan Opera House, One re-
viewer has stated that her story
is told "with the simplicity and
dignity and graciousness people
have come to associate with
her." To read this book is indeed
a rewarding experience.

Poppy Cannon. A Gentle
Knight: My Husband, Walter
White, Poppy Cannon, Mrs, Wal-
ter White, has written a love
story as well as a biography of
her husband. It is chiefly con-
cerned with the last six years of
Mr. White's life, when he was in
the limelight ot his much pub-
licized interracial mnri-iage. The
author naturally includes much
ot her own feelings and experi-
ences which resulted from this
union, ilt is interesting to note
that she was often mistaken as
the Negi'o as she was much
dai-ker than Mr. White.) In
spite ot the warnings received
from their friends and colleagues
in both races, the slights that
were expected, to some extent.
and the always present press, the
couple managed to build tor
themselves a happy lite which
was ended by Mr, White's un-
timely death in 1955, The author
has succeeded in reporting on
two worlds in a manner both
personal and analytical,

Billie Holiday, Lady Day Sings
the Blues, Here indeed is what
may be termed a very tough
book. The famous blues singer
writes quite plainly of what it is
like to grow up as a child in a
Negro slum. The shocking story
also includes Billie's hard luck in
her career, her marriage, and

A Message from the President

In some societies there is a definite age al which the )oulh become
iirown and assume full respon^ihillty for their oun lives. In America
during the nineteenth century and early twentieth century, there was a
common er>neept that the age of twenty-one for men and the age of
eighteen for women represented the beginning of full responsibility for
manhood and womanhood respectively, finder the changing social
and economic conditions this concept has tended to fade out .ind
hecome less general. In practically all levels of .'\nitriean education,
from [he elementary ?ehooI to the graduate school, pupils and students
are exercising degrees of responsibility. In the secondary schools and
colleges will he found many who carry the responsibilities of full citizens.
It is no longer a matter of age that determines the exercise of respon-
sible citizenship. In a number of states the recognition of this tendency
has been eneouched in laws which permit young people to vote at the
age of Ifj. The selection of the low age limit indicates that many
become able to participate in the affairs of the community long before
they reach the age of eigiiteen.

Il is t*j i)e e.\))ecte(l that the young people in our colleges toda)
will exercise cilizenship ihroughoul their college careers. To be a good
citizen, a college student must do more than pass his courses with a
grade of "C". or above, or refrain from interfering with other persons
or things. Every cilizcn, irrespective of age. needs to be informed on
matters relating to Ihe comnmnity. its operation, its needs, and its
ideals. To he thus equipped one must gain his information through
personal contact, reading, visitation, learning, and observation. Stu-
dents who do not read the newspapers, listen to the radio, watch
television, discuss the important events of the day. are limiting the pos-
sibilities for becoming effective eitzens. In addition to the foregoing, a
good citizen develops opinions, participates in a limited number of
activities, and prepares for continuous improvement and growth.

There is little reason for college students to assume that they
will be excused from shouldering responsibilities that grow out of
their living and studying. A survey of how American college youth
live. Ihink, participate and plan will reveal that they possess abilities
to perform ihe full responsibilities of citizenship. If there are drives
and campaigns in the community for health and other tyijes of united
effort, Ihe students should plan lo participate in terms of their mean's
and aiiilities. Observation reveals that many college students prefer to
remain immature and irresponsible. To prolong the period of depend-
ence delays the development of the individual. Wherever possible
college students should seize the opportunity to participate in the life
of their community and college and to contribute towards their de-
velopment. There should be a willingness also to share the difficulties,
rcslriclions. and regulations which are required for the moment. The
best cilizeus today and tomorow will be those who have equipj)ed them-
sehes as they partieipatcfl in learning and living.

dealy serious. The approach
must be subtle and tales of the
good old days must be intro-
duced with caution and at the
most opportune time. A very
good time would be right after
he has flunked an examination.
after studying the wrong ma-
terial half the night. Then you
could remind him of the days he
flunked without losing any
sleep, A number of schemes can
be thought of to put him back
on the right track.

How will you know when he
has thrown those resolutions out
of the window where they right-
fully belong? Simple when he
stops entering class before the
roll is called, stops giving cor-
rect answers, stays out of the li-
brary, and loses interest in the
Far, Middle, and Central East.

Perhaps society gains a
knucklehead, but what is more
important is that you will have
regained your good old pal, un-
changed and unconditioned by
the educative process.

Then she lived in Harlem as the

Stylv ill Collt'>n's

The first-year collegian wants
to make tlie best adju.stmcnt
possible to the new world about
him, whether he's come across
country to school, or he's attend-
ing the local city college down
the block. One pro-rcqulsUe to
flttlng-in smoothly Is the way
he looks.

Today's college man may or
may not be a football hero,
trigonometry master or literary
wizard, but one thing he will be
is clothes-conscious, reports the
Men's Fashion Foundation of
Cooper's, Incorporated, manu-
facturers of "Jockey" brand un-

after a recent merchandising
survey, notes that the BMOC of
today is dubbed by many fashion
experts the best dressed In his-

the pace setter in men's fash-

You who work on college pub-
lications and who are thus
aware of some of the stirrings
within professional journalism
probably think us frenetic in
our attitudes about freedom of
the press.

Tlie unhappy truth is that we
are not emotional enough about
the subject. You people here are
among the generation which is
about to inherit the United
States and you will inherit one
far less free than that into which
I and my colleagues came.

For there has been a steady
erosion of freedom. More and
more doors have been closed to
tlie press ^ith the result that
the people of the United States
know less and less about the op-
erations of their government
on every level. Never before
have we faced such an appalling
degree of governmental censor-

ship as exists at this very mo-
ment.

Over the past several years,
many of us in journalism have
been batteringat these doors of
suppression and raising a hue
and cry. But we cannot in hon-
esty say that we have yet suc-
ceeded in arousing all the pub-
lishers, editors and reporters.

What victories we have won
have been In the main little
ones. And they will continue to
be little ones until we can shake
up and wake up every publisher
and every editor and a major-
ity of our citizens to the ter-
rible evil that we have been bat-
tling.

Are you aware of the system
of governmental censorship in
effect a steadily creeping cen-
sorship w h i c h daily deprives
you of information you must
have if you are to make intelli-
gent decisions?

Some of you probably know it.
but I do not believe that most of
you are aware of the extent of
this censorship and I maintain
that the fault is largely that of
newspapers and newspaper ex-
ecutives who seem to think that
these are trifling matters and of
no deep concern to the people.

Is it trifling when for the first
time in our national history we
have saddled onto the civilian
branches of government powers
of regulating news heretofore
only held by the military in
times of war?

It is brushed aside with the
explanation that it is merely the
power of classification. Classifi-
cation, nuts! That's merely a
pretty word for censorship.

And they have the gall to say
to us: "Show us where these
classification powers have been
abused and we will review these
cases."

How in the name of Heaven
can you show abuses when the
news is blacked out from you?

In this connection, I am speak-
ing of President Eisenhower's
Executive Order 10 501. This is
the successor to the iniquitous
10 209 which was issued by for-
mer President Truman in Sep-
tember. 1951.

That original order gave to 45
civilian agencies of government
the right to classify information
"restricted." "confidential,"
"secret" and "top secret." This
order gave these sweeping pow-
ers to such agencies as:

The American Battle Monu-
ments Commission.

The Arlington Memorial Am-
phitheatre Commission.

The Commission of Fine Arts.

The Committee on Purchase of
Blind-Made Products.

The Indian Claims Commis-
sion.

The National Capital Housing
Authority.

The National Capital Park and
Planning Commission.

The National Forest Reserva-
tion Commission.

And the Smithsonian Institu-
tion.

These are just a few of the list
of 45 agencies. Could any intel-
ligent citizen accept powers of
censorship given to such agen-
cies as these? Yet this was the
order of the Government.

When a committee went to Mr.

Truman to protest, that astute
gentleman waved his hands in
that familiar way he has and
said: "Well, boys, you just sit
down and write an Executive
Order that you think will do the
trick. If we like it. we'll take it "

What a wily move that was.
How could newspapermen at-
tempt to draft a censorship or-
der? They had to back away in
dismay, with the President
blandly saying, well, he'd put
it up to them, but they weren't
willing to cooperate.

When Mr. Eisenhower was
elected in 1952 we went back to
the battle. All during the spring
and summer and early fall of
1953. we fought to get our story
across to governmental officials
to get the order revoked. But
it wasn't in the cards. Too many
politicians liked what they had
been given on a silver platter
and they had no Intention of
giving it up.

Meanwhile, the stupidities of
bureaucracy were included in all
the daily suppressions. There
were and there undoubtedly
are today girl clerks snipping
articles out of newspapers and
stamping them "Confidential,"
And so. too, with radio texts-
texts already delivered.

We did succeed in getting a
compromise one of those little
victories I mentioned earlier,

We were able to get 28 of those
45 agencies tossed out of the
censorship system no longer
holding the authority to classify
information.

And they threw us a bone by
scrapping the "restricted" clause.
Which meant only that "confi-
dential" took the place of both
"restricted" and "confidential."

We were promised ever so
faithfully that we were going to
get continuous review of the
classtficrttlon practices of the re-
maining seventeen agencies.
More important, said the Gov-
ernment soberly, review would
no longer rest with the head of
a department. The power would
now be In the hands of the

counsel.

When he announced the revi-
sion. Attorney General Brown-
ell admitted publU-ly that "we
actually have buildings full of

said the new system would work
toward prompt declassification

The record Is that In all this
time we have never been able to
get the President's special coun-
sel to discuss these matters with
us. Indeed, we can't even get
the courtesy of a reply to letters.

Today, these seventeen depart-
ments of government civilian
agencies like:

The Department of Agricul-

The Federal Power Commis-
sion.

The National Science Founda-
tion,

The Post Office DepartnuMit.

The Tennessee Valley Author-
ity.

The Departn\ents of Labor and

and Welfare, and

The Small Business Adminis-
tration.

all contlnvie to use this mlH-
tary-type authority to suppres.s
news. The Blxecutlve Order under
which they operate provides no
penalty whatever for abuse of
these powers to conceal or with-
hold lntornu\tlon that could
safely be released.

This Is our own Iron Curtain
In America- a curtain that Is
being drawn tighter all the time.

Only last year, we In profes-
sloniil ,|ournnllsn\ were astound-
ed by the Defense Department's
fatuous proposal that there
should be screened out of non-
serurlty news whatever inluht
be Interesting to an enemy, This
directive, as Issued by Secretary
Charles E. Wilson and his depu-
ty. R, Karl Honaman (iind later
given Mr, Elsenhower's blessing!
stipulated that there must be a

determination "of whether re-
lease or publication , . . would
constitute a constructive contri-
bution to the primary mission of
the Department of Defense."

Do you know what "construc-
tive" means in this context? I'm
not sure I know. What I do
know, thougli, is that the ac-
ceptance of this kind of formu-
la Is the simplest way to turn all
power Into the hands of some
clique that can then decide to
tell you what news you ought to
have based on their Interpreta-
tion of what Is constructive for
them.

I am being no rabble-rouser
when I point out that this was
the Hitler way, the Mussolini
way. the Stalin way. the Franco
way, the Peron way,

I will grant that these men In
American Government are not
dictatorial types. I will grant
that they are perfectly sincere.
But I submit that the path they
are t'oUowlng Is u road that leads
to a dictatorship. They arc fore-
going the Ideal tools for the use
of an lnscru|Julous uum or uroup

It Ks Miild tliai one ol' Uie rea.s-
onn why (> many indlvlclualn uhc
prol'anlty In tliat tliey are una-
ware that then; are othei' i'ornis
of dl.seour.se that are even more
descriptive In their reNpcctlve
language.s which are acceptable
tluit may be resorted to de-
scribe an Incident, a situation or
an Individual.

The fact that there arc ao
many Indlvldual.s who constant-
ly liiduli'.e In or resort to pro-
l'anlty wlii-n llu'y are atl-cmptinij;
to bi- descriptive, forceful, col-
orful and per.sviasive makes It
an untiiicsllonable that liicre are
many wlio are unramillar with
many of the acceptable terms
that can be used to obtain the
same goals as those descriptive,
miatu-eijlable vocables commonly
referred to as tirofanlty.

In Institutions of higher learn-
ing the InhablLanls are not ex-
pected to use profanity In ob-
taining objectives which can bo
aceompllsiied in a more Intelll-
geui and professional manner.
However, In many Institutions
the same tactics employed by
outside unprofessional and un-
intelligent sources are used by
many of the low level aspiring
professionals In our Institutions.

Profanity used in the presence
of male or female sliows that the
user has been Improperly

trained, that his culture has
sunk below acceptable stand-
ai'ds. tliat the user Is disrespect-
ful and that his vocabulary is
very limited.

At one time it was rare indeed
to hear profane words spoken on
a college campus. However, to-
day profanity seems to be as
much a part of the age as pro-
gressive education. Is this new
fad due to tlie fact that ladies
and gentlemen do not demand as
much respc( t today as they once
did, or Is it jomethlng that Is in-
separable fiom ovn- present age?

There are certain basic prin-
ciples that must be adhered to
If the atmosphere in a college
environment Is to be m ore
wholesttme than the environs of
the gutter. Since profanity and
the gutter arc so closely associa-
ted, cc'Uege campuses througliout
the world should campaign vig-
orously to destroy this conta-
gious, crippling malady and lo-
cate an acceptable substitute.

The demanding of the respect
that is due and the enacting of
laws prohibiting tiie use of pro-
fanity among all who engross
the college walls would be a tre-
mendous move toward making
it less difficult for strangers to
determine whether they are
among inhabitants of our most
undesirable circumjacencles.

During the past four quarters
many of the students who sup-
port many of our activities liere
at the college financially have
failed to be present at many of
the affairs which they liave
made possible through tlie pay-
ing of an activity fee which is
used to sponsor many of the
cultural programs which are
presented liere on the campus.

Evidently there must be some
dissatisfaction on the part of the
students since they do sponsor
the activities and fail to attend
them.

Assuming that there Is not a
student among us who will will-
ingly part with his money for a
purpose for wliich he reaps no
benefits and yet witnessing this
type of action every time a lyce-
um feature is presented on the
campus, makes the author think
that the type of entertainment
that is being presented is not
chosen in accord with the senti-
ments of the majority of tliose
who make these features pos-
sible.

Since there is none among us

wlw has been a careful observer
over a period of time wlio can
truthfully say that our cultural
activities, especially the lyceum
features, liave been attended by
at least forty per ceiit of those
who support the program finan-
cially, one feels as though some
type of investigation should be
made to determine why so few of
the financiers are present at tlie
concerts which they sponsor.

If it has not dawned upon
anyone to poll the students or
the sponsors and let tiiem sug-
gest or decide who shall enter-
tain them or what type of enter-
tainment they desire, then the
author is recommending that the
student body be permitted to
select its features. When tliis
is done, there wil be no reason to
doubt that each feature that is
presented in the future in the
auditorium will have in attend-
ance a greater majority of its
contributors, provided that they
are given an opportunity to se-
lect witli advice from authorities
the type of entertainment they
prefer.

By C, Eugene Hubbard

Officials report that sanctions
would not force Israel to yield:
and reports that the Commodity
Credit Corporation notes in-
crease in farm price loss, are
.some major and Important is-
sues facing our nation and the
world today.

Senator Byrd. a Democrat
from Virginia, has made a pro-
posal that Congress cut Presi-
dent ELsenhower's $7,800,000,000
budget by at least five billion
dollars. In an effort to guard
agaln.st Inflation. Senator Byrd.
who heads the Senate Financial
Committee, revealed that he is
drawing up an alternate budget
calling for specific reductions in
non-defen.sc spendings. Byrd
was quoted as saying that Eisen-
hower's budget is inflationary at
a time when our nation is fac-
ing a definite threat of infla-
tion. He said It represented an
Increase In domestic spending of
seven billion dollars over outlays
in the fiscal year 1954. He con-
tinued that he was still working
on his proposed budget but it
indicated tliat his attacks will
be directed largely at what he
termed "Intrenclied spending"
on domestic projects. Senator
Byrd added that tlie worst fea-
ture of the President's budget
is that almost all of the in-
creases it proposes In non-de-
fense spending call for perma-
nent and not emergency spend-
ing.

Mrs. Goida Meir reportedly
said that hardships incidental to
any United Nation economic
pressure would not drive Israel
away from the Gaza Strip and
mouth of Aqaba. Reporters
quoted her as saying, "Israel
cannot leave these points with-
out guarantees of security
against renewed Arab raids of
the Strip and against a renewed
Egyptian blockade of the Gulf
which leads from the Red Sea
to the IsraeU Port of Elath."

United Nations Secretary Gen-
eral Hammarskjold worked on a
report which he hopes will tell
the Assembly that Israel had not
complied with the Assembly's six
successive resolutions calling for
withdrawal.

In Tel Aviv it was reported
that Prime IVIinister Ben-Gurion
has told President Eisenhower
that Israel now insists on free-
dom of the Suez Canal passage
as part of its Sinai and Gaza
Strip evacuation price, but later
reports revealed that western
diplomats predicted that Israel
will remove its forces out of
Egypt as a result of U. S. sup-
port of its claim to free naviga-
tion in the Gulf of Aqaba.

Reports are that government
losses in supporting farm prices
during the Eisenhower adminis-
tration liave been nearly three
times greater than the total
losses during the preceding 20
years of the federal farm aid
program. Deficits have been
particularly heavy during recent
years, reflecting accumulation of
large surplus supplies and vigor-
ous government efforts to get rid
of them.

Presidents Message

In most of the undergraduate colleges in the United States some
consideration Is given to religion. Many institutions have a period
designated as religious emphasis. During this period special effort
Is made to enlist the participation of all students and faculty
personnel. The program usually includes the services of an outside
Individual who has been selected for his abiUty to make contri-
butions in the area of religion. The vigorous activity centered about
religion usually subsides after the evaluation report.

When one studies the extent to which religion functions in
the life of each individual and the culture In which we live, one
wonders how an area so important can be considered lightly for
most of the weeks in the academic year. The limitations on In-
clusion of religion In the curricula offerings do not offer valid
excuse for the omission. It is evident that all of the worthwhile
learnings which young people and adults need can not be included
in the ordinary college curriculum. Since much of the education Is
acquired through living and learning outside of the classroom, there
is little ground for not providing for religion.

In general it is true that as the Individual grows older, the in-
dividual's responsibility for his education becomes increasingly
greater. Many of the extra-class activities, programs and movements
associated with the colleges and developed to answer the needs of
students for a broader and richer period of college education indi-
cate the recognition of this principle. The values of religion consti-
tute some of the most fundamental needs for effective living.
Religion assists one in developing desirable attitudes toward liv-
ing, tolerance, respect for others, willingness to understand, and
the integration of personality. The Christian outlook on Ufe is
In harmony with the basic Institutions of society the family, the
systems of law and justice, the school, our democratic ideals, and
our concept of a good citizen.

A study of our history and cultural development will reveal
that religion has been responsible for the progressive extension
and reinterpretatlon of our ideals and goals from generation to
generation. It is reasonable to expect that the culture will continue
to contribute to and be influenced by religion. While this is true
of the society in which we live, it is likewise true of the individual
personality. Many individuals finding life difficult and void of
meaning have never discovered what wonders religion can work.
One does not need to travel far or to talk with many individuals
to find examples of how religion has given new meaning to life and
behavior. Religion is something to be kept alive, to be used fre-
quently, to be extended and deepened.

The Oklahoma Dally at Uni-

what some Sooner students
think about It.

"Too expensive." said one coed.
"The girl and her family nave to
pay for the wedding. That's
enough."

Other comments: "Men are
too conservative to wear them."
"Buying an engagement ring
would hurt women's femininity."
"Men don't want people to know
they're engaged. It would inhibit
them."

Piirfliic Stiiflents
Must Make "C"

Students at Purdue University
now have to work harder to be
recognized as a Distinguished
Student. The faculty this year
agreed to raise the index neces-
sary for Distinguished to 5.5 and
to put the stipulation in the code
that the student must pass each
course with a grade of C or bet-
ter.

With the changes made in
Paragraph 24.00 of the University
Code, it now reads as follows:
Distinguished Students; At the
conclusion of each semester the
Registrar shall indicate which
regular undergraduate students
were distinguished in their scho-
lastic work as indicated by the
grades they received at the close
of the semester.

Suitable publicity shall be
given to the names of these stu-
dents. To be cited as a Distin-
guished Student in any semester
one must:

Ca) Complete successfully all
the courses to which he has been
assigned with a grade of C or
better except any that may iiave
been cancelled without a semes-
ter grade.

b) Have completed at least
14 semester hours.

id Attain a semester scholar-
ship index of at least 5.50.

Originally, the practice of
recognizing a student with 5.00

index was started to honor ap-
proximately the top 10 per cent
of the students. Either due to
harder work on the part of the
students or to liberalized grading
on the part of the faculty, or per-
haps due to both, the number
of students who were recognized
as Distinguished has increased
over the years until 23 to 24 per
cent of the students received
this honor.

It was felt that there should
be something to honor those stu-
dents who are receiving still bet-
ter grades, so the new stipula-
tions were added. In its new
form, the code will disqualify
any student who has an incom-
plete, an unsatisfactory in any
zero credit course, or receive a
D. E. or F in any course. How-
ever, it is still possible to be dis-
tinguished the following semester
if the student gets excellent
grades in the remainder of the
subjects.

PoMell Lahoratorv School Selects
Teacher of ihe \ear

Mrs. Eldora Marks, a teacher at Powell Laboratory School,
was selected Teacher-of-the-year for the school year 1957-58. She
earned her B. S, Degree from Savannah State College and the
M. A. Degree from Columbia University .

The faculty and student body Hamilton. Principal, assisted by
Mr. E. Flowers and Mr. James
Wells.

Since there isn't a zoo In Sa-
vannah, the evening first grade
class is busy making its own
200. It will be located in tlie
class room. They are learning
many things; they are making
animals, cages, and scrapbooks.
The officers elected for the year
are: President. Harriett Mason;
Treasurer. Albertha Clemmons;
Secretary. Thomas Lovett; Pa-
trols. Michael Meyers and Flora
Lee Robinson.

The socend grades have de-
voted a great deal of time learn-
ing how to read more effectively.
They are learning many pur-
poseful and meaningful experi-
ences through their center of
interest, a continuation of "The
Home" under Mrs, D, C. Hamil-
ton.

The third and fourth grade
classes are making plans for a
trip in connection with their
study on transportation. Mr.
Trotman, of Chatham County
Health Department, is coming
next week to test the third
grade learning. Mrs. E. D. Marks
is the teacher.

The fourth and fifth grade
students joined a "Pen Pal Club".
Their first letters will go to a
fourth grade class at Baton
Rouge, Louisiana. The letters
will be sent as a group in one
large envelope. Mrs. Loretta
Palmer is teacher of these stu-
dents.

The fifth and sixth grade
classes are having a wonderful
time learning to use the diction-
ary. The pupils help plan, which
probably accounts for their en-
thusiasm and the success they
are having in using the diction-
ary, is increasing their vocabu-
laries because they consider dic-
tionary study to be a recreation-
al activity. They are getting this
training in an atmosphere of
freedom, relaxation and ease, all
of which are conducive to real
learning. These provide oppor-
tunity to observe more closely
the speech habits of the pupils.
Mrs. M, Wallace is the teacher
of these grades.

The seventh grade class has
organized a Citizenship Club.
The officers: President, Ethel
Robinson; Vice President, Ar-
thur Curtright; Secretary, Betty

A Salute To (.liana

J. C:impbon

On March 6. 1957 the echoes
front the sacred bells of liberty
will reverberate throughout the
world heralding the birth ot a
new, free and independent coun-
try. On that date the colorful
Gold Coast Colony will cease its
existence and in its place the
new state of Ghana will emerge.

The Gold Coast a British
Colony since 1874 will become
the newest Negro republic and
the first black republic within
the British Commonwealth of
nations. On the vast African
continent the new republic will
become the seventh Independent
nation, a distinction now held
only by Libya, Egypt, the Sudan,
Ethiopia. Liberia .and the Union
of South Africa.

At the head of the government
will be Kwame Nkrumah, the
American-educated Prime Minis-
ter, who has labored Indefutlg-
ably for the country's independ-
ence. Nkrumah's task of leadhig
the new state is far from an easy
one. His major Job is that of ap-
peasing the tribal chieftains,
who fear a loss of power, because
the new government Is to be a
strong centralized one.

The potentialities of Ghana
are tremendous. Economically,
the country is stable, with cocoa
accounting for most of the In-
come. Manganese, gold, dia-
monds, and lumber arc some of
the other money products, which
have led to the economic stabil-
ization of the country, aiding it
In its drive for Independence.

The eyes of Africa and the
world are centered on Ghana as
it begins to prepare tor the diffi-
cult job that lies ahead. That
job consists of proving to the
world that It Is quite capable of
self-government. Much of the
future success of other independ-
ent-minded African territories,
in their bid for freedom, will rest
upon the ability of Nkrumah to
successfully govern the new state
along democratic lines.

The road to freedom has been
a tiring and extremely difficult
one for Ghana; now that her
freedom is assured, it Is hoped
by all the free world that she
will become an example, and will
act as a beacon, guiding the
other colonial-dominated na-
tions along the path to Inde-
pendence and freedom.

Hysteria Is Shookiii^

(ACP .Southern Met h o dist
University's CAMPUS received
and used this letter in its "letter-
torials" column. It comments on
a current phenomenon.

Yesterday marked the Dallas
opening of the late James Dean'.s
last movie, "Giant." which is
morbidly b ei n g exploited by
Hollywood publicity men. The
surge of hysteria over this mala-
droit actor is shocking. Even
Steve Allen and Ed Sullivan have
stooped to hero worshipping of
this rotten idol. Such unscrupu-
lous propagandizing about the
glories of reckless driving and
cruelty to women would be lu-
diorous. if it were not so grotes-
quely wrong.

Contrary to public thought
Jimmy did not die a hero's death
. . . No, he died as he lived, show-
ing a wanton disregard of so-
ciety, speeding down a Califor-
nia highway at 90 miles an hour,
with a mind apparently bent on
mischief. Such grossly anti-
social behavier scarcely warrants
the shedding of maudlin tears.

Actually Dean was emotionally
immature, masochistio, uncouth,
morose, surly and considered by
his fellow actors as physically
dirty . . .

It is shameful that this maca-
bre personality can cause the
vilification and perversion of the
purportedly well-balanced emo-
tions of American youth.

When the evil a man has done
grows into a false myth this is
ample reason to vitiate the vali-
dity of the revered maxim, "De
mortius nil nisi bonum" speak
nothing but good of the dead.

We Worry and Wonder

American college .students arc
thinking seriously about world
affairs. In the ru.st of student
days, there still In time for
thought. A DAILY TROJAN edi-
torial reflects this.

A breeze, crisp and .sharp, .shut-
tles quietly througli the campus.
The night Ik clean and fresh,

Benny Morgan, 20 years old,
gazes skyward and appraises the
steel-Uke stai's mounted In a
sky of clear blackness, His pants
are tan, buckle In back . . , He
is a college student, a sophomore.

The loneliness of the night,
the deserted walks and path.s,
the stillness . . , all these Invite
thinking. They probe the mind
of young Mr, Morgan. He recalls
the black screaming headlines
of a tumultuous November.
Headlines inspired on a foreign
.soil, mothered and nourished by
a beserk mankind.

Headlines about a Communist-
controlled people thristing for
liberation. The rape of Hungary.

Headlines about the Suez
Canal as Israel and Egypt battle,
Britain and France threaten
war. Blood-soaked hair mats
thickly against .smashed skulls.

Far away from Benny Morgan.
A million miles from the cheer-
ing hysterical crowds of a Satur-
day gridiron battle- A million
miles from the grammatical con-
struction of an English composi-
tion. A million miles from a pa-
rade and a smiling queen who
surveys her campus domain with
happiness.

But war pays no homage to
distance. The far-stained fingers
of a grasping Europe point to
Benny Morgan. They beckon and
say, "The time has come . . . the
bombs are ready .. . you are
young and strong .. . and you
must help Uncle Sam save the
world.

Not knowing when, not know-

of Benny Morgan questions;
When will I have to save the
world? Will it be now? Tomor-
row? Or is it possible that the
time will never come?

Ford FoiindiUion Grants
Coneher $61,200

The I''ord Foundation for the
Advancement ot" Education has
awarded Goucher a grant of
$61,200 to be applied toward a
graduate Internship program in
educiiUnn, Under the grant.
Goucher's fellowship program
has been remodeled along the
line of an "earn while you learn"
plan.

During their second semester,
gniduiite students will hold full-
time teaching positions in the
Baltimore .school system and will
be paid $1.BOO (equivalent to
4r)% of the yearly salary of a
regular teacher.) The Baltimore
Department of Education is co-
operating with this program and
will provide exiJcrlenced teachers
to supervise the graduate stu-
dents.

A special feature of the pro-
gram will be a six-week pre-
scsslon extending from mid-
August to late September. This
will provide two weeks for orien-
tation for all participants and
four weeks Tor observation and
partlclpaMon In a number of
city .school, before Interns begin
their formal work course.

From October through Febru-
ary students will receive fifteen
semester hours of Instruction In
courses on elementary school
cuirlculum, child development,
and Mil' hliitory of American edu-
cation. An Integrating seminar
will correlate theory and prac-
tice.

In shifting from a fellowship
to an hUernshlp jirogram, costs
to both the student and the In-
stitution will be considerably re-
duced. College officials believe
that both the opportunity to be
.self-supporting and the chance
to assume full-time teaching
duties through the year will
make the program an attractive
one.

Two fuU-tultlon scholarships
will be awarded on the ba.sls of
need as well as a limited num-
ber ranging In amount from $300
to $600.

As Industrial development of
South and South-east Asia
speeds up, Japan's three-wheeled
motorcycle trucks will probably
bear the burden, according to
the Japan External Trade Re-

mountain goats, rugged as the
rough-hewn roads they ride
upon, economically priced and
maintained, they carry from
two-and-a-half to five tons of
cargo for 35 miles on one gallon
of gas. Over 500,000 of these ver-
satile motorcycle trucks are in
use in Japan alone, all products
of a domestic industry which
began forty years ago.

When will the summons come?

No. Mr. Morgan, your question

You must sit and contemplate

Ity J. Campbell, Jr.

Mueli has been written, a
Kreat deal more has been said.
eoneernlnR the pllf^ht of today's
i-dlleiH' .student. There has been
u constant volley ol' vituperative
blasts almi'd at his .shortcomlnRS,
rebuking him for lack of serlou.s-
ness, Indifference, complacency,
and a host of other unforKlvc-
iible evils. He has been severely
castlKuted, denounce d, and
branded In lanKuaije of no un-
certain terms. He has been
cla.sMlflod as a moron (high or
low-^radei who cannot speak,
in- write the English lanBuafJjc.
Ills conduct and manners have
been cited us more bcflttlnK a
wild savaRC than a olvUlzod per-
son who Is belni; educated. Final-
ly he Is led to believe that his
generation In every aspect Is
positively the worst that has ever
been allowed to grace tlio scats
of any Institution of higher
learning.

That most of the criticism
leveled at the student omits from
the pens and mouths of college
teachers Is not In the least sur-
prising, as they arc constantly
In contact with the student and
In the position to observe and
J\Klge his performance, nuxnners.
actions, and conduct.

Doubtlessly much of what they
write and say Is true perhaps
all of It. But at the same time,
teachers are human (contrary
to what some students bcllcvet
and nu^ny of the shortcomings
which characterize the student

exist among them. The teacher
has the right however, because
of his .superior learning and po-
sition, to publicly denounce the
student, The shortcomings of the
Instructors are only discussed
surreptitiously among students,
for not even objective criticism
can the student make without
suffering.

The student In order that he
may obtain a grade a very rela-
tive Item which varies so greatly
among Instructors and Institu-
tions until Its value Is greatly
questioned Is made to endure
all the Idlosyncracles the In-
structor possesses. Day after day,
the personal dlsapolntmcnts and
fustratlons of the Instructor are
thrust on the student, who
finds It necessary to listen at-
tentively for boredom must
never manifest Itself,

The conduct of the student Is
a perennial problem to the ad-
ministration and all types of
rules and regulations are set up
for his guidance. But what regu-
lates the conduct of Instructors?
In many Instances their con-
duct leaves much to be desired.

Eventually the mediocre, poor,
lazy student cither flunks out or
withdraws from school; If his
conduct Is too unbearable he Is
expelled. But not so with the
IndllTerent or poor Instructor, he
remains and Is an endless source
of harassment to all students,
good and poor.

"Tho Uia Stich Policy''

By I. Mclvor

"Speak softly and carry a
big stick" Is a portion of one of
the famous and familiar quota-
tions that was used by Theodore
Roosevelt, our twenty - sixth
President, during his tenure as
President of the United States.

The big stick statement comes
from an old adage applied to
Roosevelfs policy in Latin Amer-
ica. The President could afford
to use the statement from the
ancient Proverb because he was
backed by a powerful American
Navy.

Today the big stick doctrine Is
still being adhered to in many
environments, especially the
classrooms.

The precept has changed
somewhat since Roosevelt's ad-
ministration so that it now
reads, "Speak loudly, carry a big
stick, and make those suffer who
openly attack my point of view."
To admit that students can be
right and that individuals in all
areas are capable of making mis-
takes is some thing that is as
outmoded as bell-bottom trous-

ers in many classrooms. The stu-
dent, however. Is and must be the
only person who is susceptable
to mistakes. If he is to "survive."
Such a statement as "If you do
not concur with my policies, you
may leave the classroom since I
do not cave to discuss the matter
any further." is familiar to many
students in Institutions of higher
learning. Students are aware
that this is a revised or modern
classroom application of Roose-
velfs policies. Very often stu-
dents know who carry the big
sticks and they accept the doc-
trine that they are always wrong.
Top officials of Institutions of
higher learning should be grati-
fied. I am certain, of the fact
that they can boast of employees
who feel as though book learn-
ing or classroom participation or
inhabitation is the only type of
essential activity that college
students should pursue in their
attempts toward becoming well
rounded. I must admit however,
that classroom participation is
the student's, or should be the
student's, primary reason for at-

ISt^wH of Industry

By LenarcJ Dawson

The author of this article feels
that students at Savannah State
College should be informed of
the latest developments In In-
du.stry. In an effort to achieve
this, In the future this article
will present such developments.
It Is felt of course that first of
all you .should know what the
Division of Trades and Industries
at Savannah State College has to
offer. This Initial article pro-
poses to acquaint you with the
offerings In this department.

The primary objective of the
Division of Trades and Indus-
tries on our campus is to train
the minds and hands of Its stu-
dents In such a manner that
they may successfully pursue
gainful employment In a .special-
ized industry as well as in the
teaching profession.

This Division offers two types
of programs. One prepares stu-
dents of the college level to
teach Industrial Arts or Indus-
trial Education In the secondary
and elementary schools. The
other program is under the aus-
pices of the Division Trade
School. Students who possess at
least an 8th grade education are
eligible to enter this program.

The college curriculum gives a
strong and carefully planned
sequence of courses in Industrial
Arts. Industrial Education, and a
comprehensive combination of

(Cuiitiuucd uii Pane S)

tending college. Being a firm
believer that variety is the spice
of life, I cannot concur with
those who would not provide any
time for co-currlcular activities.
Being also of the opinion that
America does advocate democ-
racy to a certain extent. I am
also of the opinion that class-
room participation should not be
one-sided.

Many students In our colleges
and universities are hampered
because of the application of the
big stick policies in classrooms.
When the classroom becomes a
place of fear and uneasiness, the
student cannot perform In a
satisfactory manner. Some stu-
dents never contribute to some
of their classes because they have
been indoctrinated by experienc-
ed students to fear certain indi-
viduals and the failure of the
individuals who practice "the big
stick policy" to cast aside "the
big stick" makes the classrooms
less Inviting.

Attending assemblies, organi-
zational meetings and other co-
curricula functions of the college
should be as much a part of the
student's experience as classroom
lectures. The lecturer frequent-
ly describes the ideal situation in
his unprepared or prepared, and
often tiring lectures, whereas or-
ganizational functions enable
the student to prepare himself
for some of life's problems that
cannot be solved by digesting one
of the many published dlsserta-
tions-

Roosevelt's famous policy is
used in many ways other than
to make individuals accept a de-
shed attitude. It has and is fre-
quently being used to satisfy ego.
without considering the well-be-
ing of the suppressed.

The big stick policy advocated
by Roosevelt during his stay in
office was backed by military
power. The classroom interpre-
tation of this policy does not
have the type of support that
Roosevelt enjoyed. Since the
classroom doctrine is weaker and
has fewer adherents, it should be
attacked and destroyed.

Disagreement has been one of
the most effective and successful
means of curing the crippling di-
seases that have plaqued envir-
onments. There are many who
disagree with what is advocated
by those who carry "the big
stick" They, however, do not
utter their disagreements in the
riglit auricles loudly and fre-
quently enough because the
shadow of the "stick" is too
frightening.

Presidenfs Message

When one attends college one
leams many things which are
not taught in the classroom. It
is possible to compile a long list
of the learnings which have been
developed through extra-class-
room contacts and observation.
During the past five or six
years, the college students have
experienced the so-called "face-
lifting" and "building booms"
programs on their respective
campuses. Not all college stu-
dents have been fortunate
enough to see a number of new
facilities erected on a college
campus during a single college
generation. Few realize how
much time is required to bring
a building to the construction
stage. Every building must be
planned by an architect who
must provide the plans and spe-
cifications for every aspect of
the building. This stage of de-
velopment of a building general-
ly requires several months or, In
some Instances, more than a
year. After bids have been ad-
vert ised a contractor is secured.
Another period is required for
the actual construction of the
building. Many contratcors re-
quire a minimum of a year or
more to construct an average-
sized college building. Under or-
dinary circumstances the fin-
ished building which one sees at
any time on a college campus
represents continuous planning
and working over a period of two
or more years.

The students of Savannah
State College have been fortu-
nate to experience during the
past six years the construction of
several kinds of educational fa-
cilities, The Board of Regents of
the University System of Georgia
has completed four new facili-
ties and it has provided for a
continuing program of major re-
pairs and rehabilitation. The col-
lege is at present in the planning
stage for two new buildings
which are very important in the
development of its educational
program. The architects have
completed plans for a new li-
brary which will be adequate to
meet the expanding needs of the

institution. The structure, costing
approximately S550.000. will pro-
vide basic college library facili-
ties. The building wil hnclude
facilities for audio-visual educa-
tion, seminar rooms, listening
rooms for music collections. The
building will be air conditioned
so as to provide the best care for
the 60.000 volumes to be d^oslt-
ed there and to provide the best
temperature and humidity con-
ditions for effective study and
learning.

A second facility now under
construction will include a group
of units designed to constitute a
center for technical education.
Classrooms and laboratories will
be provided in the $900,000 cent-
er for automotive engineering,
building construction, electron-
ics, radio and television, heating
and air conditioning. In addi-
tion to the above, modern labor-
atories will be provided for the
departments of chemistry and
physics which are very closely
related to all of the programs of
technical education. The erec-
tion of this technical education
center will be one of the first of
its kind in this section of the
country. It is expected to prepare
individuals to enter industry
where there is an unusual and
increasing demand for individu-
als trained in the technological
fields. This center and the li-
brary building will place the col-
lege in position to do a very
superior educational program.

In addition to the above, the
Board of Education of the City
of Savannah and the County of
Chatham in cooperation with the
Board of Regents of the Univer-
sity System are constructing the
first unit of a twelve-grade lab-
oratory school, This unit when
fully developed will provide for
approximately 1.200 pupils from
grade one through grade twelve.
The facilities will be a part of
the teacher education program
of the college. Pupils will be able
to enter nursery school and con-
tinue their education to the bac-
calaureate degree on the college
campus under superior educa-
tional conditions.

a provuc of a career picture to
come. The program. In effect.
Is a trial employment period to
allow young women a chance to
decide whether or not they
would enjoy a career as a com-
missioned olllcer In the Women's
Army Corps. In the senior year
of college, women who have .suc-
cessfully completed the month's
training will be afforded an op-
portunity to apply for a com-
mls.slon upon graduation. So our
smart young lady leaves college
wearing the bars of an army
lieutenant pretty good?

It's the chance of a lifetime!
If on the other hand, circum-
stances do not permit her to ap-
ply for commission, our young
lady Is merely dl.scharged from
the Reserve. She has no service
obligation beyond her summer
training.

The successful applicant will
be .sent to Fort McClellan, Ala-
bama, 14 July 10 August 1957.
Tran.sportatlon, meals, hou.sing
and appropriate uniform will be
furnished. In addition, our col-
lege Junior will be paid $122.30
'a corporal's pay) for the
month's training. The army's
guided Mi.ss will not be a dull
Jill for there will be play, as well
as work, golf, tennis, swimming
and dancing are only a few of
the recreational advantages
found on every Army Post,

This highly selective program
is limited to sixty college juniors
from the United States, Think
of the fun of meeting sorority
sisters from North. South, East
and West! This alone will make
WAC summer training a mem-
orable experience interested
women must apply immediately
if applications are not in by
May 1. 1957. an opportunity will
be missed, an opportunity that,
for the college junior, knocks
only once.

Join a wonderful and exciting
group of young women this sum-
mer. Be smart ! Be sure I Be
the Army's Guided Miss!

thr- cvaluuMon cnninilttce tliut

dcnt body wu.s the best manner
hi which to kIvc the final cvahi-
atlon. Till' week l.s only clV('c-

nllhriint role tlial religion |)lays
In the world, luicl a larger appre-
ciation and underKtundlnK of the
dllVeront tyjaes oT rellKlon.s In the
world.

It was till' opinion ol' most iil'
the students that the .semlniirs
were well presented and that the
speaker did u very good Job In
eoverlni-', the subjects and hi an-
swerlnrv iiuestlon.s. Purlleulurly
Impre.sslvi' seemt'd to have been
the I'l'ankni'ss and uni'vaslve re-
sponses that were ulvon In an-
swer to some ol' tho dllTIeult
(Hiestlons asked.

CoiK-ernlniJ;' tlie classroom dis-
cussions there was a variety ol'
opinions expressed. Some believed
that the discussions were not
piepared In advance iind were
therel'ore hiehectlve; others re-
gretted the non-cooi)orath)n of
a few of (he Instructors who did
nut hold the inoposed discus-
sions saylnu I hat they Intei-
ferred with classroom work, In
a few cases It was fovmd tliiit the
topics were asslc,ned to students
and their reports were treated as
ft part of rcRular class work.

Many students thought their
freedom was greatly restricted
because of the week. Members
of the Intra-murul basketball
teams were of the opinion that
the scheduled games should have
been played. They regretted the
ciincoUatlon solely bectiuse of the
activities connected with the
week.

A major shortcoming was tlie
restriction of all topics to the
Christum Religion. Tlie theme
proposed religion as the hope of
a confused world; yet no at-
tempts were made to show in
what way the major religions
of the world would relieve tlie
world of its confusion.

Another shortcoming was that
of having only one speaker. Two
would have been much more ef-
fective, particularly if they repre-
sented different faiths.

However, these shortcomings
are comparatively small when
viewed against the apparent suc-
cess of the other phases of the
week, such as the Little Chapel,
the drama "The Bishop and the
Convict," the House gatherings,
and the Communion service.

For the speaker. Dr. Hughley,
the committep overwhelmingly
agree that he performed a tre-
mendous job, and by far was one
of the ablest speakers ever to
appear on the campus in observ-
ance of Religious Emphasis
Week.

TcKlny, the February Ladles'
Home Journal proudly salutes
the family of Lt. Col. Daniel
(Chappie) James and pays tri-
bute to Ills "Demonstrated Abil-
ity." A seven-page article by that
title, written by Mary Elizabeth
V r o m a n n. Christopher-Award
author, and Nelle Keyes Perry,
a Journal Editor, presents the
Jameses in the article series en-
titled, "How America Lives. " This
;x'ries, now in its 17th year, each
month tells the story of an
American family.

Lt, Col James is now stationed
at Maxwell Air Force Base. Mont-
gomery. Alabama, to which in
June tills year, he was transfer-
red to Staff Command School.
Previously, since 1953. he and his
family lived at Otis Air Force
Base, Cape Cod. There, he was
commander of the 60th Fighter-
Interceptor Squadron, one of the
jet squadrons on which depends
the air security of the East Coast,
and one of the few virtually all-
white outfits in the Air Force.

"Promoted over more than
5000 majors who ranked him. he
did it by just one thing" the au-

ing young man of the year, re-
ceived the Massachusetts Junior
Chamber of Commerce Distin-
guished Service Award for 1955.

"Being a Negro and working
up to commanding his own
squadron was no easy job. as
Chappie James readily admits.
'Of course I got the breaks.' he
says, 'but I couldn't have done
it without Dottle."

At this praise, "Dottle smiles
tranquilly, with obvious pride in

Eugene Brice, the ba.ss barri-
tone of the duo is a well-known
recltallst and voice teacher. He
has appeared as soloist with the
Julliard Festival of Contempo-
rary Music, the de Paur Infantry
Chorus, the Margaret Hillls Con-
cert Choir and the Collegiate
Chorale. He appeared on Broad-
way in "Showboat" and in a road
production of "Carmen Jones."
Mr. Brice has also appeared on
Godfrey's Talent Scout Show and
Ed Sullivan's "Toast of the
Town."

At an early age Eugene Brice
sang with the Shaw Chorale. He
was one of the first two Negro
soloists to sing with the group
on its nationwide tour. Brice is
the only member of his race who
made the historic tour with the
Shaw Chorale to Europe and the
Middle East in the spring of 1956.

Robert Pritchard. the pianist.
is a native of North Carolina and
he received his Bachelor's and
Master's degree from Syracuse
University where he graduated
with highest honors.

All of his piano studies in New
York have been under scholar-
ship. His teachers were Carl
Friedberg and Robert Goldsond
and he is presenteiy under the
tutelage of Hans Neumann.

In 1953 he toured the Midwest
and made appearances in Europe
in 1955 where he was successful
personally and musically.

Aside from playing Mr. Prit-
chard also lectures. In the win-
ter of 1956 lie presented lecture-
recitals at Barnard College in
New York.

His tours of the South in the
spring of 1957 will be the first in
this area.

Academic Freedom
And The Student

"A student in an American
school or college is subject to au-
thority and at the same time is
being educated towards free-
dom." The moral responsibility
facing both the college and stu-
dent in the problem of academic
freedom has been brought into
focus with the publication Aca-
demic Freedom & Civil Liberties
of the Student, the pamphlet
published recently by the Ameri-
can Civil Liberties Union. It is
the first statement by the ACLU
to deal solely with activities.

The 12 page pamphlet covers
five problem areas: student or-
ganizations, student publications
on campus and elsewhere, stu-
dent speeches and forum partici-
pation, general disciplinary
methods of college administra-
tions, and the educaional insti-
tution and its public relations.
The student's responsi'bility as a
campus citizen and as an off-
campus citizen is discussed and
a series of problems are posed.
This publication will be included
in the Academic Freedom Week
Kit now being prepared for dis-
tribution to member schools. Ad-
ditional copies may be obtained
through the American Civil Lib-
erties Union, 170 Fifth Avenue.

General Motors Presents
Science Show

"Previews of Progress," the
world-famous General Motors
stage show which spotlights
science in action, was presented
in Meldrim Auditorium on Fri-
day. March 8 at 11:40 am.

The forty-minute show fea-
tured for the first time the Gen-
eral Motors Sunmobile. the mini-
ature car that actually runs on
the power of the sun. The pro-
gram was also packed with other
demonstrations depicting the
role that science plays in indus-
trial progress.

Other features of the non-
commercial free show which
seeks through previews to in-
spire more students to enter
science and engineering were the
demonstrations showing how
synthetic rubber could be pro-
duced in 60 seconds, an action
history of the jet engine, the
flying of a egg on a stove that
remained cold and a demonstra-
tion of the micro-wave relay that
sends long distance telephone
conversations and television
programs across the country.

Each year more than three
million students and adults view
these previews. The previews
were presented by a two-man
team and were narrated in
understandable, non - technical
language.

"Previews of Progress" has
been seen by 13 million students
and adults in the United States.
There are now twelve two-man
teams operating in this country
who cover 180.000 miles a year.
There are another twelve units
touring Canada. Europe, South
Africa. Australia and New Zea-
land.

Approximately 3.000,000
foreigners have attended these
previews and the show has won
wide acclaim from educators and
civic and fraternal organizations
for its success in awakening in-
dividuals to the importance of
science.

THE TIGER'S ROAR

Sigma kappa Council

Takes Action

By a 12 to 5 vote of the Stu-
dent Government Council of the
University of Michigan. Sigma
Kappa Sorority was found to
have violated the conditions pre-
scribed for the recognition of an
organization by the University.
This question is also being con-
sidered by a number of other
universities as a result of the
suspension of local chapters at
Cornell and Tufts by the Sigma
Kappa National Council after
both colleges pledged Negro wo-
men.

The decision was made by the
Michigan Student Council after
a forty page document was pre-
sented to aii council members
and Sigma Kappa representa-
tives. It contained the area of
SGC responsibility, letters from
the local and naional chapters
explaining their position, from
the local and national Pan-Hell
and correspondence from deans
and sorority members from Cor-
nell and Tufts explaining their
action. Special emphasis was put
on the procedure of the consid-
eration by the SGC and all in-
terested patries were allowed to
present pertinent information, A
lawyer was employed to clear up
any judicial questions, (Taken

ernment Council Newsletter )

must have immediate transpor-
tation available, they consider
the two cars a necessity.

The Jameses hke people, make
friends easily and love to enter-
tain. At Otis Air Force Base.
Chappie's regiment was a close-
knit, friendly group, the article
relates. Social life ranged from
informal drop-in visits to oc-
casional formal parties at the
club. Almost any Saturday night
someone gave a party. For her
own parties. Dottle likes to serve
a buffet dinner centered around
the family's favorite Creole gum-
bo but sometimes she serves a
Southern menu of tried chicken
and grits. She is an excellent
cook, the authors observe. In an
accompanying article, entitled,
"Main Disher with a Southern
Accent," by Dorothy James, she
shares her favorite recipes with
readers.

Chappie's drive and talent she
attributes to his mother, and
Chappie says of his mother, "She
has the most indomitable spirit
I've ever seen. My mother be-
lieves that the eventual end of
segregation depends on Negro
achievement. Prove to the world
that you can compete on an equal
basis. Show by your accom-
plishments that you are good and
intelligent and worthy, I don't
say don't fight it with legisla-
tion or with any proper means,
but I don't say you'll do much
good that way either. Achieve-
ment will do it." More than fifty
years ago Mrs. James established
the L. A. James Private School
next door to their home. She
taught all her children through
the eight grade and though now
in her late seventies and crippled
with painful rheumatism, she is
still teaching from a wheel chair.

the origins, development and
styles of jazz and their relation
to other folk musics of the
world.

S.S(J To Lose

By O. Nathaniel Weaver

Three of Savannah State's
most colorful basketball players,
Noel Wright, Robert (Robbiei
Lewis, and Clevon Johnson, have
played their final season for the
Tigers. The Tigers finished the
season with top honors three of

NOEL WRIGHT

the four years that they were
niembei's of the team and were
runners-up only cnce.

Noel 'Snuify) Wright was a
member of the All-Conference
Team for all his four years. His
speed, accurate shooting and su-
perb dribbling proved very lielp-
ful to the squad. He gained the
recognition of being one of the
most colorful players in the
S.E.A.C. Conference and of this
basketball region.

KOBERT LEWIS

Robert (Robbiei Lewis was
selected to the All-Conference
Team on three occasions. He was
cne of the most effective and
ace urate long-shot artists seen
in this section of the country. .
Being selected to the AII-S.E.A.C.
Team was nothing new for
Lewis since he made the All-
Army where competition was
much greater.

Clevon Johnson had his best
seasons during his freshman and
sophomore years. His ability to
sccrc when goals were needed
most and his rebounding ability
were some of the abilities he po-
sessed that enabled the Tigers
to be the top S.E.A.C. team three
of the four years he participated.

Defeat Is, 1 uiust admit, one nf
the bitter pills that must be
swallowed. The Individuals who
can take deh-at In stride are
few. Tlu-refore, election officials
consider It muisual when there
Is an election and there are nii
accusations made.

I Imagine that It Is an Indi-
vidual's pero^atlve to suspect
I'vcryone when the most wanted
and soufiht after positions In u
nlven situation are at stake.
Those who never trust cannot be
trusted. Inorder for an Individ-
ual to have faith In himself, he
must have faith In others.

There are. and will always be.
those who will be disappointed
over the selections that are
made. There Is. however, the ma-
jority who Is satisfied. Environ-
ments In which disagreement
and dissatisfaction exist are our

healthiest areas. Without disa-
rm I" e e m e n t and dissatisfaction,
(here would never be progress
or attempts made to correct
existing weaknesses.

II' there are any among us who
are going to a(r(|ulre some gray
strands becau.se your candidates
did not win, 1 aui hoping that
you will remember that spilled
ndlk cannot be recovered. If
your dl.ssatlsfactlon was real, you
would have campaigned In a
niori- vigorous manner for the
candidates which you favored
and It Is veiy jiosslble that the
election headlines would have
lead different.

Many of us fall to realize that
the masses do not select their
leaders. Leaders, for the most
part, emerge Into prominence,
and the people m e rely go
through the formality of nomi-
nating and casting votes.

The election Is over. The win-
ners have bci'n annomiced, and
the ballots have been counted.
The winners and the losers are
either happy or sad, and you
have, 1 Lun certain, elected the
persons that you considered to
be best qualified tor the ki-y po-
sitions that are to be filled dur-
ing the 1957-58 school year.

If there were mistakes nuide,
they cannot be erased until an-
other election unless there are
those among us who know the
implications of the term "Im-
peachment," Impeachment, how-
ever. Is not proper imless there Is
a mistake or after the elected
have had an opportunity to prove
their worth. The only thing left
for the unhappy minority to do
Is to accept the fact that the
election Is over and remember
that ballots, not complaints, win
elections.

A Salute To The Timers

I. Mclver

The Savannah State Tigers
were the undefeated and undis-
puted champions of the South
Eastern Athletic Conference this
term. They were foremost In
every sport that was sponsored
by the S.E.A.C. during the 1956-
57 school term.

The football, basketball and
track championships were all
won by the Tigers who attend
the school located by the sea.
The Tigers can boast that In
1957. Savannah State, aside from
being the school where grassy
plains and palms abound, is also
the school where all of the first
place trophies given by the
S.E.A.C. during 1956-57 can be
found.

Winning the football crown

was more significant than all of
the others, because it was Sa-
vannah State's first grid title
In several seasons.

The athletes and the coaches
should be commended for the ex-
cellent performances that were
made on the gridiron, the bas-
ketball court and the track field
during the past school term. The
athletes and other members of
the student body should be proud
of Savannah State's 1956-57 rec-
ord. This year for the first time
In several years. Savannah State
completely dominated the
S.E.A.C.

Being champions requires a
great amount of training, coach-
ing, endurance, patience, equip-
ment and a burning desire to be

Last month the .spotlight was
on the periodicals and news-
papers received In your library.
Perhaps you have formulated
u plan that would permit wider
reading of these materials. If
you haven't decided on a course
of action, look through Bete's
Passport to Knowledge. The au-
thor of this scrlptographlc
booklet has worked out a form-
ula that might solve some of
your reading-time problems. Al-
though the book Is u.sed as the
unit of measurement, the Ideas
are even more applicable to
magazine and news paper ar-
ticles as they are brief and do
not call for sustained reading.

The formula: If you read only
15 ndnutes a day you would
read one-half book a week, two
books a month, twenty- four
books a year, one thousand
books In your lifetime equal
to going through college five
times, making you an authority
on any subject you choose, tak-
ing a trip around the world-

To help you test this theory
we have listed below several
magazine articles that are pro-
vocative, Informative, or hu-
morous. Choose one for read-
inglet It be the first step in
your expanded reading pro-
gram.

President Charles W. Cole of
Amherst College writes respect-
fully, if not solemnly, about the
monogamous mores of youth in
the lead articles of the March
Issue of Harper's Magazine ^the
title, "American Youth Goes
Monogamous,"

"How to make an Impression
In a Dl.seusslon Group without
actually Saying Anything" Is
the overly long but descriptive
title of a 2-page article cover-
ing eleven easy lessons that
should lead to your becoming
chairman of almost any group
discussing education. You'll
find this humorous presenta-
tion in the Phi Delta Kappan

Tho VoU'e of a Southern

ISffiro
Carl J. Faistti)

We all know the evils of the

south
From what we read and see.
But let me tell you
About the south and me.
I was born in the south.
But not of my choice.
Concerning that matter
I didn't have a voice.
Each of my grandparents
Was born a slave.
But their souls remained free
Even to the grave.
Northerners ask,
"Why stay in the south?
You've got to be careful
Of your actions and mouth.
You were born poor.
And you'll die poor;
You'll never have anything to

show."'
But I say in 1885
My grandparents were freed;
They were put on their own
To acquire their every need.
If they survived In the south.
Why can't I?
I will fight to make things

better
Until the day I die,
I was born during the depression
When the struggle for hfe
Was the only obsession.
I was raised In poverty
But today 1 live;
I have learned to take
As well as give.
Now I'm a man,
And I'll take my stand.
And mould my future
With my own two hands.

on top These are only a few of
the m a n y prerequisites that
champions must possess or to
which they must have access.
Evidentally the Tigers because
of their performances possessed
the essential prerequisites this
term.

Presidents Message

The month of May to the College student may mean any one
or a number of things to those who are looking forward to grad-
uation in June. It represents the last mile in the achievement of
an Important goal. As candidates for graduation near the comple-
tion of their undergraduate work, they often look at their records
and evaluate their collegiate experiences. In their preparation to
leave college the candidates plan and think about the future. Those
who have already made decisions become anxious over the new
goals that they have set. Those who have not made up their
minds have a tendency to worry about their prospective future.
The decisions which they must make are important and they bear
a definite relationship to the role which the Individual will play
In an adult society. Some candidates will prolong their period of
dependency by entering graduate school which will allow them
another year or two In which to find themselves.

To the undergraduate who plans to continue his education
In the fall many questions arise. Some will wish to continue school
during the summer quarter In order to reduce the time required
for the baccalaureate degree or to enrich and extend their format
education. A few will use the summer as a time to make up work
that has not been completed satisfactorily during the past year.
Generally the largest group of students will be leaving the Institu-
tion for the summer session. In most instances they will seek
employment for the purpose of earning funds to continue their
education. Summer employment has been the most Important
single source through which students have been able to finance
their education. Students who value education will seek employ-
ment during the summer vacation period. It Is believed by many
that much of the experience gained by students through summer
employment has considerable educational values thus summer
employment becomes an opportunity for the extension of one's
education as well as the financial basis for the baccalaureate pro-
gram. Students who practice thrift and wise expenditure of their
funds gain training in proper budgeting and planning.

The students of Savannah State College are now in the midst
of the process of making decisions. The decisions made will be
influential in determining their careers. The College possesses
many resources for individuals who find themselves faced with
making choices. The library with its books, magazines, newspapers,
and guides will provide information needed to arrive at a solution.
In addition to the material resources, the student will find human
resources that are abundant In the members of the faculty. Their
training, experience, outlook and vision place them In a position
of unusual value during this period. In the student's search for
such assistance, he must select the sources in a manner similar
to the way in which he chooses his books or periodicals. The de-
cision, however, to be of value must be one that the student makes
on the basis of his own thinking.

mirrored here, but you will find
it provocative reading that you

Tri Semester Plan

Unless some other method is
found to alleviate the crowded
classroom conditions at Florida
State University, students may
be faced with the prospects of
more night and Saturday classes.

Looking toward the future, Dr.
Hugh Stickler, head of the edu-
cational research department,
admitted the possibility of a tri-
semester plan. The scholastic
year would be divided into three
16-week semesters. According to
this plan. 48 weeks would be
equivalent to a regular scholas-
tic year.

Dr. Stickler noted the possi-
bilities and limitations of such
a plan:

It would serve more students
with less equipment.

Graduation would be possible
in three years instead of the
regular four.

Vacations would be only four
weeks a year.

The plan is not part of the
present day educational culture
pattern.

Summer work would be im-
possible.

It would cause a lack of time
for maturing factors of a student
in college.

ed by the measure, with students
being given 15 years for repay-
ment. The ioans would bear the
same interest rates as other gov-
ernment obligations.

Before a loan could be made,
however, certification would be
necessary from the educational
institution "that it has found
the applicant quaUfied for such
course of study or training and
that it is wilhng to admit him."

East Still Bastion
Of F<>rc'igii
Laiiy-uaues

A svirvey of 971 American col-
lege,'- and universities reveals
that the East remains a bastion
of modern foreign languages
leaehlng, particularly In the
numbers of different languages
offered students. Of the top 11
collegiate language centers In
the nation, six were found to be
111 tile East, three In the Mid-
west, and two In the Far West.
l''ar In fri nt Is Columbia Uni-
versity where 41 huiKimges were
being tniiRht during the 1954-
55 period of the unique survey.
Second and third ranking insti-
tutions were Harvard, teaching
'M dirtereni modern languages,
and Yale, teacillng 25.

The survey was conducted by
the IforelKn LunKUage Program
ot the Modern Language Asso-
ciation of America which sot out
tour years ago to make the most
Intensive language fact-finding
survey in the history ol the Unt-
ied States. The survey unearthed
iiumy other inteiestlng facts
about languages in American in-
stitutions of higher learning,
some eonfirniing existing be-
liefs, utiiers quite startling to
edueiitor.s.

Perhaps most startling oT all
was the fact tiiat 311 institutions
reported they offer no modern
foreign language instruction at
all. while '11)3 -almo.st exactly
lialf of tlu> 1171 re|)ortlng_snid
Hiiy offer no otlier foi'elgn lan-
'iiage Instruction than In
l''reneh, H|juiilsli, and Oerman.

The survey confirmed the tact
that I''rench remains the most
luvoi'ed f ] e I g n language In
America. A total of 1105 Institu-
tions of the !)7I reiiorted In.struc-
tlon In It'reneh. However, Span-
ish had climbed to a close second
by the 1I1B4-B6 acttdomlc year,
being taught In 807 institutions,
ii .scant 3B .schools behind French.
Oernmn stood third with 825
.schools, and Italian fourth with
212.

'I'he influence of thc^ Soviet
Union's ijo.sltlon in the modern
world Is clearly reflected in the
tact that Ru.s.sian Is now taught
In 183 .schools, making It the
titth-ranking modern language
taught In the U.S. After Ru.s.sian
the number of institutions otter-
ing each Individual language fell
off .sharply. Portuguese running
a weak sixth with 60 centers,
and .Swedish with 31.

In a survey prologue. Professor
William R. Parker, recently re-
signed as Executive Secretary
of the MIA and now on the In-
diana University EnglLsh facul-
ty, notes that 72 per cent ot the
world's total population some
one billion, nine hundred million
person.s .speak as natives a lan-
guage other than "those usually
taught In American colleges and
universities."

The survey gives graphic evi-
dence of this. Chinese, .spoken
by some 600,000,000 persons, tor
example. Is taught In only 29
schools. Japanese, spoken by
100,000,000 Is ottered by only 22
ln.stltutlons, Korean Iwlth 32,-
000.000 speakers) by only 20.
Hindu-Urdu, spoken by 150,000,-
000 persons In India, Is listed by
only six Institutions, and Malay,
spoken by another 70,000.000, by
only five institutions.

In fact, the survey listing 78
world languages spoken by a mil-
lion or more speakers natively
show.s that 58 languages are
taught by five or fewer schools.
Ot this 66, a total of 27 includ-
ing such great tongues as Java-
nese 141 million speakers), Ma-
rathi i28 millions(. Gujarati (20
million). Kavarese (15 millions,
Hausa (nine millions), Swahili
(eight millions), and others are
taught nowhere at all in the
United States.

The top 11 collegiate language
centers, according to the survey,
are Columbia. 41: Harvard. 26:

By Julius Hrcjwning

The Savannah State Collegt-
"TiKer.s" won their second and
third game of the season by beat-
ing South Carolina Area Trade
School U-7 and 6-3 In Denmark,
South Carolina. The tigers dis-
played their hitting power In the
first game with Louis Ford and
Ray Fuller supplying the power.
Ray Fuller collected with a trip-
le In the first Inning with a mate
aboard and Louis Ford hit his
first home-run of the season in
the third with a man on base.
Willie Ludden won his second
game of the season without a
defeat.

The Tigers were never in ser-
ious trouble in the second game,
because the ace of the mound
staff. Moses King, could do noth-
ing wrong. King struck out the
first five men to face him and
the hitting of Albert Lee, Robert
Porter, Ray Fuller, Earl Nelson,
and Louis Ford completely sub-
dued the opposition. King helped
his own cause by collecting three
.singles and struck out fourteen
batters, the highest for a "Tiger"
pitcher this season.

THE TIGER'S ROAR

The Spotlight

By Ernestine Hiil
This picture of Jeannette Mir-
iam Baker was taken a year ago
when she graduated from Evans
County High School. Claxton.
Georgia. I feel that this picture
is appropriate in that all over
the United States other High
school seniors are preparing to
make this all-important step.

Let us look into Ihe life of
one of the many young ladies
who felt that a high school edu-
cation was not enough. What
she has accomplished should in-
spire other young people to fol-
low in her footsteps.

Tn a year's time at Savannali
State College. Jeannette has
been accepted as a member of
Ihe Arconean Club of the Rho
Beta Chapter. Zeta Phi Sorority,
was voted financial secretary of

Jeannette M. Baker

the Pr'ihmm cla.ss and ^kcte I
treasurer of t';c Camilla Hubert
Hall House Council.

It was nut surprising to me
to hear v, fellow classmate of
Jeannette's remark that, "When
that girl speaks in dormitory
council meetings, everybody lis-
tens". Jeannette has a dynamic
personality and she is one of the
persons you can put on your list
of names of people who are
going places".

Jeannette's hobbies are cook-
ing, sewing, and meeting all
kinds of people. While interview-
ing Jennette she said, "I like
to participate in all sports and
campus activities in which I can
contribute something. I particu-
larly like public speaking and
church activities". After she
made this statement no doubt
was left i nmy mind as to the
fine person she is.

Jennette plans to major in
home economics, specializing in
foods and nutrition, which will
prepare her for being a die-
titian .

This summer Jeannette will
work at the Parkway Child Care
Center in New York City, Wher-
ever you may go Jeannette, re-
member that THE SPOTLIGHT
IS ON YOU.

he received the M,A, degree from
Columbia University and has also
done further .study there,

His major field 1 Romance
Languages (SpanLsh and

For one year he taught at
Mary Allen Seminary, Crockett,
Texas, an all-girls' .school. It was
quite a change after spending
four years at Lincoln, said Mr.
Jason,

He has taught at West Ken-

Kentucky State College, He
worked as a translator for al-
most two years in the Office of
Censorship, Washington, D, C,
and served three years in the
Armed Forces.

Mr. Jason makes his home in
Tuscumbia, Alabama, with his
wife and daughter.

During the many years spent
in America, after associating the
winter season with snow on the
ground from pictures on Christ-
mas cards, Mr. Jason said he
has not yet become accustomed
to the long winters. In his com-
ment on the weather conditions
he seemed a little distressed be-
cause in December there is snow
on the ground and it is cold. In
January there is a little snow;
and, in February and March
there is no snow, but it is still
cold, he said.

Because the campus affords so
many far away memories, Mr.
Jason said. "It makes me feel
as though Tm at home."

Churlen nurwln, a late HlUi century scientist, ostabllshod a
doctrine rcspectInK the orlciii of species as derived by descent,
with viirlalinn Troni parent forms through the natural .selection
of thos(! Iiest, adai)icd to survive In the struK(,!;lo for existence. This
theory slni|)ly means that the Individual who is better prepared
to meet (he deiniinds of nature iind l,ln> modern problems of the
wurUI will llvi' and ;airvlvr' wlilie the iinpi'eparecl will falter under
presHVU'e.

Our colleges wore established for the purpose of preparing
younp; men and women for the gr(!at and Rravc task of competing
in society, The prei)ured Individual can enter the varied fields of
.society wllh thi' backcniuiul of ii college education and experience.
Our culle|'.es .seek to develop the Individual's personality, knowledge
of llie aceumulatlvi' facts of life, both si)lrltual and material, and
most of all preparedness for life In the raw. These are the things
students expect out of colle|'.e. "To face the world as experienced
adults and not as children Is our aim," Is a phrase often heard on
the campus,

If these are tlie things students expect out of college then this
is what they should get. But these iireretiulsltes that are needed
can only be given when adults are treated as adults and not as
clUldren. This Is one of the most Important aspects of the gro%vth
and development of the Individual, for It lead.s the college student
I'.radually into the adult world.

Some colleges do not feel that college students should be treated
as adidts. Why? 1 do not know. But two years ago an article ap-
peared In a leading maga'/lne telling how a college Dean of Women,
In a mUNweslern college, fought for the right to treat tlie senior
women of (he college as aduKs should be treated. She explained to
the dorniKory council that If within a year these women are going
lo graduate and go out Into life alone, they should be given the
chance to understand and find out what adulthood Is like. They
cannot find out If they are treated like children. As a result the
senior women were given the freedom to stay out as late as they
desire, and many restrictions were lifted to give them the freedom
they needed. If this was good or bad, I cannot say but I know for
myself as an Individual in college I want to be treated as an adult
and not as a child.

The average student feels this way and wants to be prepared
for this responsibility not in an Idealistic sense but in a realistic
sense. The Increasing complexity of society and cultural advances
demands realism of men and women. Until these needs are met
and fulfilled, no coUcge graduate can honestly say "I am ready."

A Stiidenfs Dream

When plans for the half-miUlon dollar library were released
by Dr. William K. Payne, president, the dream of the entire student
body seemed nearer in becoming a reality.

Among the st\idents seeking varied avenues to higher education,
the new library will atford all the niodern facilities necessary, in
satisfying their demand for knowledge.

Not only will the building provide an added beauty to the
campus, but new experiences, opportunities, and comfort await
within its walls.

A new spirt will reign among students who exalt in the beauty
and progress of their campus a spirit vital to the moral of the
institution.

This half-million dollar library is a student's dream. When
that dream becomes a reality, a new Savannah State will be born.
Yes! This vision long anticipated, and anxiously awaited, is
truly a "student's dream."

BOY

I was asked to write a short
composition about what happen-
ed to me and about my first
Impressions of the United States.
It Is very difficult to really an-
swer such a question because my
experiences and feelings are so
many and widespread that I
could not describe them within
the frame of a short story.

People are different. All have
different ideas, and perhaps this
difference of opinion promotes
world development, and pushes
our life forward. But there are
special circumstances in which
people experience outstanding
events and have the same topic
on their mind.

Not long ago I was in sucli a
situation on the border between
Austria and ?Iungary. I started
alone from Budapest and after
four days of marching, I arrived
at the frontier. It was at night;
I could only guess the direction
of the border. My left foot, on
wiilch I wear a machine, was
bloody by the end of the long
march. I thought, I felt I could
not go on. Finally, I perceived
(he border sign meaning life to
me. After a few more steps, I
was standing on Austrian soil.
The Austrian border patrols car-
ried me in their hands to the
nearest community. Here I met
more exhausted, tired, and torn
people . . . both men and women.
They were lying on straw pre-
pared for tliem in a hurry. We
waited for the morning to see
what was going to happen to us.
And perhaps t li e same
thoughts were on everybody's
mind and perhaps everybody
would give a similar answer to
an occasional un-asked question
If someone liad asked me what
I felt and I knew in advance
tliat a month later I'd learn the
Englisli language in one of the
most beautiful colleges as a re-
sult of a scholarship, in relative-
ly the greatest luxury, I would
surely have cried from liappi-
ness. And now as I tliink back.
I am convinced tliat we would
have been all very happy to see
in advance what has happened
to us since, ti\ere at the Aus-
trian border in a situation with-
out perspective, in uncertainty
and fearing the future.

And why do I describe ail this?
Just to remind many, many Hun-
garian youngsters and perhaps
adults too, of soniething that
happened to us not so long ago.
Sometimes it is useful to remem-
ber past events and learn what
we owe to ourselves in the first
place and to many others like
us.

Nobody can build his or lier
future life on what he or she
did or did not do in Hungary,
We have sliown and still can
sliow how much we are worth
and to show who we are. Let us
not save our efforts to do what
we have to do. because we shall
enjoy the fruits of our efforts.

President's Message

As one senses the situation in our country today, one is faced
with many statements indicating the swift movement of affairs.
Everywhere people are talking about the rapidity of change. As
the dLscussion continues, one often wonders what things are perma-
nent and enduring. Perhaps it is meant that the changes are not
all complete and fundamental in nature. The variety and number
of changes often give the illusion that everything is changing.

Among the enduring or permanent things needed in our society
is the ability to think. In all societies of the past, the ability to
think clearly has been the chief means by which progress has been
made- Many of the societies and cultures non-existent today be-
came so because the peoples were unable to think properly. In mass
media communication an unusual premium has been placed on
thinking ability. Wherever there are many choices to be made,
thinking becomes the principal means of making the right choice.
As one makes use of the radio, television, aeroplane, camera and
other devices such as the newspaper, magazine, recordings, and
books, he can find many answers to every question generated in
his mind.

To arrive at an adequate solution to a problem it is necessary
to weigh evidence as a part of a system of values. The values
which one develops as he matures are related to his society and
education, both formal and informal. Students who enter college
and feel that a four-year program is too long to wait before becom-
ing active in adult life have a different set of values from those
who see the four years of college as a basis for a profession which
they would hke to pursue. It is often necessary to decide whether
one will have certain material comforts and luxuries now or at a
period five or ten years later. To think through a problem one
may need in addition to studies, books, newspapers, and other ma-
terials, personal conference with some one prepared to assist in the
thinking a counselor, teacher, psychologist, or psychiatrist. The
decision, however, is one only the individual himself can make.
Usually when its made it wil be satisfactory if it is thought through
carefully in terms of the student's background, resources, ideals,
and aspirations.

The abihty to think like any other characteristic or trait can
be developed in terms of each individual. The schools, elementary.
high school and college, can play an important part in this develop-
ment. The opportunities to think presented students at all levels
will provide training in this area. Methods of teaching and learn-
ing utilized by the school and the teacher will become important
factors in this development process. Teachers at all levels in the
schools are beginning to provide better training in this area. The
emphasis here is not being put on the teacher alone. Pupils and
students are assuming larger and larger rolls in their own education
by recognizing the fact that one educates him.self. This tendency
toward the development of abilities to think, promises to be the
major factor in the continuation of progress individually and col-
lectively in our society.

By Thomas Jones

The subject most frequently
discussed on the campus is
which team will win the pen-
nant in the National and Ameri-
can Leagues. Presently the races
in both are very heatedly con-
tested.

In the American League the
contest is between the New York
Yankees and the Chicago White
Sox. with the Cleveland Indians
and the Boston Red Sox follow-
ing closely in third and fourth
places, respectively.

The Yankees, who were odds-
on favorites to run away with
the American League pennant,
find the White Sox giving stiff
competition The Yankees do
not appear to have the punch
and steam as in former years.

The question of what happened
to the Yankees can be answered
by stating that their mainstay,
"Yogi" Berra. is having the worst
season of his career. He is bat-
ting .225 and is not hitting
homers and in the clutch as
expected of him. The Yankee's
ace pitcher, "Whitey" Ford, lias
been out most of the season with
numerous injuries. Their reserves
on the bench are not coming
through in the clutch when
needed.

On the whole the American
League appears to be somewhat
stronger than it was last year.
In years gone by the Yankees
would win an aggregate of 60
or 70 games from the second
division clubs, do no worse than
an even split with the first
division clubs and breeze in with
the pennant. But this year the
Yankees are taking their lumps
from the second division clubs
and as a result are not running
away with the pennant.

From this quarter the Yan-
kees will be in the World Series
come October, but if they should
stumble along the way. if Berra
and Ford do not pick up the
slack and if the White Sox get
a little more hitting just watch
out for those White Sox.

Over in the National League
it is the same old story: a dog
eat dog affair and it would be
foolhardy for anyone to attempt
to predict the outcome.

At the season's beginning it
was a pick your choice be-
tween the Brooklyn Dodgers.
Milwaukee Braves and Cincinnati
Redlegs. But now the Philadel-
phia Phillies, New York Giants
and the St. Louis Cardinals are
making the fight for the Na-
tional League pennant a six-
team race. The teams in the Na-
tional League are so evenly bal-
anced that no one team can
build up a substantial lead. As
evidence of this the sixth place
New York Giants are only seven
games out of first place. Any
team that can win five or six
straight games is the team to
beat out.

Front this quarter the predic-
tion is that the New York Yan-
kees will be fighting the Dodgers
in the World Series come Oc-
tober.

Post Mortem ... In the Na-
tional League Stan Musial will
win the batting, runs-batted-in
and runs scored titles. Duke Sny-
der will win the home-run title
and the winningest pitcher will
be Bob Buhl of the Braves.

In the American League, Ted
Williams will win the batting
title ; Mickey Mantle the runs
scored, run-batted-in and home
run titles.

Now what's your guess Ss to
how the Major Leagues will wind
up at the season's end?

Excise Tax Exeniptioii

Clears Another Hurdle ,

Approaches House Vote

The House Rules Committee
has cleared for House floor ac-
tion H. R. 7125, reported by the
Ways and Means Committee,
several weeks ago. (See this Bul-
letin Vol VI, No. 17, May 15.
19571. Among other things, the
bill provides exemption from ex-
cise taxes for non-profit educa-
tional institutions. When the bill
comes up for House vote about
the middle of this month, it will
be under a procedure barring
floor amendment.

The late date for House action
on the excise bill could delay
Senate consideration until next
year. But Senator Byrd, Chair-
man of the Senate Finance Com-
mittee, has been quoted as say-
ing he thought his Committee
could complete action on the bill
quickly this session if it did not
prove too controversial.

THE

SPonj(;ui

By Ernestine Hill
While walking across the cam-
pus sometime ago, I was won-
dering who would be my Spot-
light subject for this month.
Without realizing it. I was cross-
ing the street as a truck came
very near me. My probIen\ was
solved, for driving the truck was
Levern Carter, It surprised me
that I had not thought of him
before.

Levern. from Baxley, Georgia,
graduated from Appling County
High School In 1955. Ho entered
Savannah State College Septem-
ber 17, 1955 studying Radio and
Television the first two quar-
ters and in the Spring quarter
starting his academic work In
the field of Industrial Education.

There Is hardly a student at-
tending Savannah State who
does not know Levern. Working
for the Building and Grounds
Maintenance group, he Is often
seen driving one of the school
trucks around the campus, He
is always busy, but never too
occupied to give you a bright
smile. He is the type of person
whom when you meet makes the
day more cheerful. He Is an intel-
ligent, polite, and handsome
young man who has a way of
making every girl he is around
feel that she Is something
special.

Levern's hobbles are working
on all kinds of electrical ap-
pliances, and enjoying all kinds
of music. His plans after grad-
uation are to teach for a few
years and then work in some
large corporation, specializing in
electronics.

This writer predicts a great
future ahead of you, Lavern, and
always remember that "The
Spotlight Is On You."

Seeondarv Workshop

Selerls riienie

By Betty Stephens

The Secondary Workshop,
which consists of fourteen in-
service teachers from many lo-
calities throughout Georgia, has
its activities and organization
based on problems, needs and In-
terests of the in-service teach-
ers, report student chairmen Miss
Betty J. Shaw and Mr. William
B. Jackson. The Co-directors of
the workshop are Dr. Calvin
Kiah and Mr, Walter Mercer.

"Purposeful Experiences for
Purposeful Learning in the Sec-
ondary Schools." was selected as
the theme for the workshop.
This theme was chosen with par-
ticular emphasis on improving
secondary instruction in the light
of what modern research and ex-
perimentation believe are good
educational principles.

In order to reach some of the
goals of the workshop, indivi:!-
ual members selected special
projects such as: the explora-
tion of controversial issues and
book reviews. Records and films
have also been used as aids.

A series of education tours
liave been planned to broaden
the knowledge of environmental
resources that can be used to
improve instruction. These in-
clude visits to: Telfair Art Acad-
emy, Greenbriar Children's Cen-
ter, Union Bus Corporation, Oat-
land Island, Fort Pulaski. Savan-
nah Morning News Plant and a
tour of the Harbor.

The activities of the Workshop
have been enriched greatly by
resource persons who are special-
ists in different areas. Mr. J. A
Spriggs. Director of the Work-
shop in Metliods and Materials
of Teaching the Retarded Child,
Mrs, I. J. Gadsden and Dr. V.
McNamara. Director of the Di-
vision of School Health in Geor-
gia implemented the program
by acquainting the workshoppers
with many ideas and activities
for promoting good health prac-
tices in the high school.

The members of the workshop
are looking forward to visits of
ether consultants: Mr. D. Leon
McCormac, Administration and
Curriculum, Mr. W, A, Metz, Psy-
chologist, Mr. Robert Holt, Read-
ing Specialist, and Mr. Bacon.

The President's 1958 Budget
included $300,000 for the Com-

There ure. httwever. other I'ca-
sons why more students do not
support, as they do other activi-
ties, the relli^lous programs of

There Is a strong possibility
that this drift Is due to the fact
that the Individuals who are em-
ployed to Instill and tench stu
dents very seldoui or never Ire-
quent the religious programs of
the Institutions in which they
are employed. This observed fail-
ure can be a more crippling dis-
ease than many of the other ex-
planations that we may consider
as primary.

would like to disagree, they, how-
ever, must concede that .students

cles they will eventimlly en-

Tomorrow's world will, I must
admit, be a sad predicament If
many of our present leaders

wrlkl a great amount of Influ-
ence uri our aspiring leaders.

Many of our leuder.s are never
seen at our educational and re-
ligious functions. The student
gets the hnpres.slon that attend-
ing these programs Is not essen-
tial since the Individuals who
are lending do not consider them
worth their precious moments.

Coming to college Is supposed
to strengthen Individuals, tor
the most part, many become
weaker, especially In their re-
ligious heritage, Even though
teucher.s constantly contend that
their primary aim Is to attempt
to mold nmtured, competent,
well-rounded dtl'/ens, they fall
to reall'/.e that an Individual
could not be considered well-
rounded If he is not taught or
encouraged to revere a supreme
belnR. In most cases the church
or sonre other meeting place Is
considered the proper place to
revere this being.

Being treated as an Infant
does not foster maturity. If st\i-
dents ar{' not to be treated as
nu\tured individuals, then the
adults should take advantage of
this |)rolonged Infancy to train
the Infants to walk the right
paths in his Infancy so that
when he beconu's mature and
must be counted with the strong,
he will not be stranded at the
crossroads where survival is an
iinposslbllity.

Too frequently we remind our
connudes that action speaks
louder than words, It has also
been a custom for us to encour-
age indlvidiuils to practice their
preachings. The presence of om
leaders at religious f mictions
and their dally conduct does
much to Influence nuuiy, The
drift from religion in college
etmnot be cvnbed by persuasive
lectures. People will listen to al-
most anyone if he can speak
well and has .something to say
Individuals do not spend all of
their time listening. A great por-
tion of the listener's time is
spent observing to see whether
those who are trying to teach be-
heve and abide by their teach-
ings.

Standurds

I. Aloyslous Mclver

In an environment where the
supremacy of the presonallty is
stressed. It is very discomforting
to hear colleagues cite instances
where certain individuals must
alway.s pay the penalty or adhere
10 the standards, whereas "fav-
orites" can get special favors.
If this accusation is true, some-
where along the path someone
has or is disregarding a funda-

mental moral principle human
personality.

Standards are set In many In-
stances to foster uniformity and
to prevent chaos. Standards
however, vary in different en-
vironments, but be what they
may. standards do prevent con-
fusion and eliminate many prob-
lems

I Iviifit'd Member

By J Campbell, Jr-

For good or evil, "grouplsm"
haH become firmly entrenched In
our American society, and the
old rugged individualism, like
the frontier, has all but dl.sap-
pearcd. The tendency of Individ-
uals to Join groups has been
more jHonounced In America
than In any other country. We
are more concerned with the
problems of groups, group par-
ticipation, and group belonglng-
ness. than we are with the In-
dividual and his problems.

The vast number of clubs,
fraternities, .sororities, honorary
.societies, and other types of or-
ganizations found on our college
campus furnl.sh evidence of the
prevalence of "grouplsm" in our
society. The membership roster
of t h e s e organizations hold
many names, but few of them
can boast of full participation
from their members, in the form
of attendance, cooperation, and
the carrying out of specific a.s-
slgnments.

Somehow "getting in" the
group .seems to be the most Im-
portant thing. The fact that
every group or organization
exists for some expressed purpose
or function escapes too many of
us. Once "in" we all too soon for-
get the purpose of the organiza-
tion; forget to pay our dues, to
attend meetings; In point of fact,
we forget everything except that
.somehow we are members.

The work of the organization
is performed by a few Indus-
trious, conscientious members.
If they succeed In a project the
majority bask In the limelight;
if the project is a failure, the
majority disclaim any attach-
ment to it, sometimes even to
I lie organization.

Membership In most organiza-
tions Is a voluntary deed. No in-
dividual Is forced to join the
types of clubs and organizations
which are found on college cam-
puses. Therefore, If an individu-
al Is not willing to work toward
the goals of the organization, he
.should refrain from joining.
Every organization has rules by
whlcji to expel members for
non-cooperation, but few have
the courage to actually do so. If
this privilege were exercised by

ju.st, they mu.st apply to everyone
concerned. Yet, contrary to this
conception, we have seen many
Instances where certain indi-
viduals are given "breaks" or
permitted to "slide" while others
suffer.

Individuals who grant special
favors and permit certain indi-
viduals to slide, fail to realize
that "sliding" Is not one of the
accepted practices that will en-
able individuals to remove the
many obstacles that will be en-
countered In environments
where "sliding" is not tolerated
As soon as we realize that we
have to make our "breaks ' and
that they are not given, much of
favor granting and sliding will
cease to cripple the fortunate
unfortunates who seek the easy
road to the top.

The adhering to standards and
the curbing of sliding have been
an Impo.ssibillty for many re-
sponsible individuals. Maybe it
would be better if we eliminated
the term "standard" from our
vocabulary since there are those
among us who believe that, in
many instances, the word has
lost its true meaning. To some
the word denotes favors while
it denotes to others unpleasant-
ness.

The p r p o s i ng. establishing
and writing of standards, be they
requirements for a degree or the
laws governing traffic violations,
have in many instances been a
waste of precious time and paper.
Many laws no longer .serve their
purposes because there are too
many who have enough "pull'
to be exempted from the stand-
ards that were supposedly set up
10 govern everyone concerned.

President's Message

American communities are in the midst of the year-long
celebration of the centennial of the National Education Association.
During the celebration many opportunities will appear to study and
evaluate the activities and achievements of the organization during
its first hundred years. The goals which were selected during the
early years of the organization have continued to be re-established
in terms of the changes that have been taking place in American
life.

Since the beginning of our first schools in this country. Ameri-
cans have been concerned about reducing the illiteracy rate. Re-
markable progress has been made in the decrease of illiteracy, if
the ability to read and to write one's name is considered a minimum
standard. In most American communities today there are few people
who have not achieved this minimum goal. The concept of Hteracy.
however, has developed to a point where much more is required
of the literate person. The recognition of the need for the partici-
pation of each individual for the greater good of the community
places a premium on intelligent action and well-developed person-
ality. It is reasonable to predict that the concept of literacy will
grow as long as man continues to make progress.

In our society today Americans are faced with the problems
of developing abilities required in thinking, evaluating, appreciating
and understanding. Although millions are reading, writing, and
ciphering, there Is evidence that the number who can make decisions
on the ba.sis of their reading, listening, and viewing is not large.
American education will be concerned with the development on a
large scale of abilities to discriminate, evaluate, and to make
decisions. The multiple media of communication which would in-
clude printed and written material, pictures, radio, television, and
telephone present a complex world in which individuals need special
abilities to live adequately. The goals of education today and in the
future will be centered about improvement of the individual's abil-
ities to live in a complex society. The ability to live and to make
progress In such a .society will continue to be conditioned by the
self-direction of the individual members. Students in high schools
and colleges will be expected to build into their personalities the
elements necessary for charting paths that lead to established
and desirable goals. As individuals advance on the educational lad-
der, they will be expected to assume progressively more responsibility
for the quality and quantity of their education.

the organization more frequent-
ly, a tremendous amount of
"dead weight" could be thrust
aside.

Being a member of an organ-
ization Is not enough. One must
become a full-pledged member-
must cooperate must attend
meetings, pay dues, and partici-
pate in discussions and debates.
And most important, one must
learn to accept the failures of
the organizations as well as the
successes.

For those who wish to belong
to an organization but are un-
willing to become full-pledged
members. I suggest that you
band together in the formation
of a "Do Nothing" Club. As the
name implies, the members
would have nothing to do no
meetings to attend, no dues to
pay. no goals to achieve, no
standards to uphold. Incidental-
ly. If you're seeking a president,
my hat's in the ring.

What's An Editor's Job?

As the college year neared the
midway point, many editors
found themselves seriously
thinking and writing about then-
proper functions on a campus.
Should a paper take sides or
shouldn't it? Is it an honest
paper if it accepts censorship
from anyone'? Here are a few
views:

University of Kansas' "Daily
Kansan" reprinted an editorial
from the "Wichita Beacon" on
the college paper and its role.

Burton W, Marvin, dean of the
William Allen White School of
journalism and public informa-
tion, has declared that it is ab-
solutely essential that the "Daily
Kansan" remain neutral In all
political sltuatlons-

We wonder what the great
Emporia editor, who was seldom
neutral about anything, would
think of such a dictum.

It is easy to understand Dean
Marvin's point of view. He is in
a ticklish spot because the uni-
versity is a tax-supported insti-
tution. If a student journalist
whipped out some sophomoric
bit of political writing that of-
fended powerful persons, the
dean would take the rap.

And yet surely the philosophy
of neutrality is a subject that
should not be taught in any in-
stitution of high learning. This
is not a neutral world,

A neutral campus newspaper
is a poor laboratory for training
reporters and editors. American
newspapers have a noble tradi-
tion of championing the cause of
good government and social re-
form and freedom . . . The his-

were going around telling every-
body that Joyce Bryant was here,
everyone thought it was an April
Fool's joke. However it was not,
and many of the students did
not see her because they thought
it was a joke.

Miss Bryant after appearing in
Jacksonville, Florida stopped on
our campus April 1. 1957. Those
who heard her were thrilled.
Miss Bryant sang two selections,
"My Soul's Been Anchored In
De'Lord" and "Because."

Traveling with Miss Bryant
were two oher students from
Oakwood College.

Ella Marie Taylor, who sings
soprano and is a Junior major-
ing in Secretarial Science and

at Oakwood College majoring in

guests of Harriet Miller while
they were in Savannah.

tory of American Journalism Is
fllli'd with the stories of brave
publishers, editors and rcportei's
who have dared to take sides . . .

They were all partisan men.
We defy Dean Marvin to name
one man who has brought honor
to Journalism by being neutral.

A school of Journalism should,
we think, teach Us students how
to tight by writing. It should
teach them how to choose the
better cause and support it ef-
fectively. It should teach them
not be be bored hacks, but to bo
great, smart, able editors and
reporters In the noble American
tradition.

"UCLA's Dally Bruin" sees It
another way, emphasizing: "It Is
not an editor's job to take sides."

The Press And You

Did you know that your library
subscribes to more than 200 peri-
odicals and 20 newspapers and
that every day a goodly number
of them still unread are taken
down and replaced by new issues
that will in their turn be taken
down unopened and unread?
Statistics assure us that so far
TV's impact on magazines lias
been surprisingly small. They
say that in less than 10 years,
TV has become practically uni-
versal, but the magazines have
gained too. They assure us, too,
that newspapers are still con-
sidered by the public at then-
main source of information since
radio and TV give little more
than bulletins and capsule com-
ments on a few issues.

These findings should give
comfort to all who are trying to
dispel the wide-spread notion
that Johnny can't read. They
would too, if factual observa-
tion supported the figures. Take
a number from five to ten and
you will have the number of
magazines and newspapers that
actually pay their way in most
college libraries. In our library
the calls are for: Pittsburgh
Courier, Ebony, Life, Look, Time.
Newsweek, the local and home-
town papers. That's all. Except,
of course, the ones assigned for
class reading and the fashion
group.

There is, of course, nothing
wrong with reading or looking
at I since a number of titles are
of the picture-story type) the
newspapers or magazines listed
above. This is no campaign for
curtailing the reading of these
popular periodicals; but one for
extended coverage of the news
and the thinking of the day.
Why not try adding one maga-
zine a month to your established
reading list? Glance sometime at
the editorials in the newspapers
now read. Add from time to time,
some material from the New
York Times and the perennial
Pulitizer prize winning St, Louis
Post Dispatch.

Ftcts About The ISegro

The Negro arrived in the New
World free from Tuberculosis,
and syphilis, or other venereal
disease. Livingstone, tlie famous
African missionary and medical
doctor, says. Syphilis "dies out
in the African interior. It seems
incapable of permanence in any
form in persons of pure African
blood." Syphilis originated in
Europe in 1494, wlien there was
a great epidemic of it. As this
was two years after the discovery
of the New World, it was erron-
eously believed lo have been
brought back by tiie sailors of
Columbus.

The Negro was the first artist.
The oldest drawings and carvings
yet discovered were executed by
the Negro people over 15,000
years ago in Southern France,
Northern Spain, Palestine, South
Ffrlca, and India. The drawings
are on rocks, the carvings on
bone basalt and ivory,

Whenever you see Albert
Wheeler walking across the cam-
pus, you will find that he hardly
ever has time to stop and chat.
He could very well be described
at the executive type, because
he is always busy and seems to
know exactly what he is doing.

Albert, a freshman from Dub-
lin, Georgia, is a graduate of
Oconee High School,

Albert's hobbles are reading
and collecting and listening to
modern jazz records.

The campus activities in which
he participates include the Choir
and the Newspaper staff. Most
of us heard him sing beautifully
in chapel not too long ago.

Albert, a very serious minded
young man. has definite plans
for the future. He intends to
major in chemistry, and after
finishing college, he plans to
join the Air Force and become an
officer. During the summer he
will be working at the Dublin
Veteran Hospital,

Whatever life has in store for
you Albert, always remember
that the SPOT LIGHT IS ON
YOU.

The President's Message

Rt'Uffion U ilit Srirnrr

Ulilkii(-'n itR' Uuii;lit ut un
L'lii-ly a^i' to bellfvo In Homoone
or HOinctlilni;. Durlni^ tholr curly

of the ChrlHtlun fiilLh und to
tiecei)t no other theories exeept
those lulvoeiitod In the Bible ;us
to the creutlun of the eurth.

The cluipter to which I refer
states that God ereiitcd heaven
and earth; the fish of the sea;
the fowl of the air, and the beast
of the land and then He created
man. This Is belief. This Is faith
and It Is to be taken seriously.
It Is Lo be taken as part of life
Itself.

But In many eolle[;e courses
there arc two theories that seem
to falsify the teaehhifis of the
Bible. The "Theory of Dynamic
Eneoimter" states that the (M\rth
and all Its phenomena were
created through a series of t^rad-

than .seven days according to
our conception of time today,
Also there Is a theory that states
man dest-ended from a primate
that .som{'Wh(!r(.' man broke
away from the primate species
and evolved to what we know
a.s modern man today

Many students find It difficult
to face this problem objectively
and many times It shakes them
In their faith. They face this
Ijroblem of what a textbook re-
lates and what they have been
taught to believe all their lives.
Many students have left their
classes contemplating over what
has passed In class. And they
are In doubt as to what to be-
lieve.

But what the student must
learn to understand Is that the-
ories arc not proven facts. They
must be accepted as supposition,
as part of a learning process.
When looked at In this fashion,
one can objectively understand
the teaching of the .sciences and
renuiln a Christian.

By Robert Tlndal
Space Flltrhl
As the periscope makes Its wide swing around our globe it
comes to focus on the Iron Curtain and what may be the greatest
scientific achievement of man In the twentieth century. The world
was botli shocked and bewildered to liear that the Russians had
successfully launched the first man-made satellite. This astound-
ing accomplishment by the Conununists had a resounding effect
on the countries that make up the free world. The full effect,
however, cannot be known until It Is clearly determined how far
advanced the Russians arc In the field of outer-space travel. The
United States hos reported since the launching of the Russian
man-nu^de moon that It will start the launching of its earth
satellite In December of this year.

With the successful launching of Sputnik I, as It has been
named by the Russians, tlierc Is no doubt In the minds of the
great powers that her claim of over a nionth ago of successfully
firing an Intercontinental Ballistics Missile Is true. What effect
this will have on the rest of the world no one will chance a guess.
Here In the United States it has caused numerovis discussions and
investigations to try to determine where we fell behind Russia
in this project and liow she was able to win this race for outer-
space invasion,

Tlie Middle East
Continuing Its swing the periscope settles now on the Middle
East where it is being said the west is suffering another set back.
The Incident that many claim was the beginning of the west falling
from favor among the middle eastern nations was the refusal
of the United States and England to lend Egypt the money to
build the Aswan Dam. The truth of this statement can only be
proved or disapproved by the men who head the governments in
this troubled area.

Here At Home
As the periscope comes closer to home it settles on Miami.
Florida, where the International Brotherhood of Teamsters are
holding the convention to elect a new President. All the eyes of
the country were focused on this convention to see whether or
not the delegates from tiie locals were going to support the pro-
posed candidate James Hof fa in the face of the late Congressional
investigations which have indicted Mr. Hoffa for improper hand-
ling of union affairs. Needless to report Mr. Hoffa won an almost
unanimous vote. What are the indications of such action. Is the
Teamsters Union declaring war?

The periscope now rests on Little Rock, Ark., and Central High
School, where the President of these United States sent federal
troops to carry out the law of the land as interpreted by the Supreme
Court. How long will they remain? The President says as long as
necessary. A fact that may be interesting. It is costing the United
States $100,000 dollars per day to maintain these troops in Little
Rock This could become very expensive.

The views expressed in columns and ediJorials are lliose of the
ivrilers and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of the newsuaver

Mo.st of the students enrolled
In each of the four clas.se.*:; of
the undergraduate college ap-
pear U) be in a hurry. One often
wonders why students enrolled
In college feel the fleeting of
time. In .some instances this
feeling Is generated by flnrn-
clal pressure and the need to
become .self-supporting. Some-
times, the haste Is generated be-
cau.se the Individual has a well-
organized plan developed for the
achievement of goals within and
beyond the college cour.se. If the
feeling of haste were generated
by the student's goals b.^yond
college, learning might take on
a different character When one
knows that he is acquiring tech-
niques, skills, knowledge, under-
standings, and appreciations for
specific achievement, he will
take time to acquire these Items
with his highest degree of per-
fection. Learning In college
would then come to mean more
than the completion of courses
of -study and the pa.ssing of ex-
aminations. Students would at-
tempt to evaluate the depth and
breadth of their own learning.
If one knows the things to be
u.scd In arriving at his goal, he
recruits the best means and tools

required to perform the task.

It is unfortunate that many
college students decrease the
value of their college education
by failing to establish objectives
and goals that lead beyond the
bachelor's degree. One often
hears a student say that he
would like to have changed his
major before he graduated. A
further explanation is given that
a change in major would mean
a longer period In college. Since
the student desires to graduate
on time, he will continue to pur-
sue a program which he does
not like and does not Intend to
follow. In all probability, the
selection of the program of
major concentration was made
on the basis of expediency Too
many students receive the cov-
eted diploma and have no idea
concerning the direction they
expect to take. They find them-
selves forced to make hasty de-
cisions. Such procedures tend to
reduce to a bare minimum in-
tellectual and other types of
growth generally expected of the
bachelor's program.

Changes in modern life and
the early participation of youth
in all aspects of our culture re-
quire that choices for careers

be made early. In a society of
literate and educated people
where vocations are numerous
and on a rapid Increase, indi-
viduals are encouraged to make
plans for careers at an early
age. Many vocations require
choices to be made early in the
secondary school. Some pro-
grams in college require that
freshmen come with prerequis-
ites in specific areas. At what-
ever level one may decide to
make a decision for a career,
there is justifications for taking
the time required. To be in a
hurry does not mean one would
enter a field for which he had
no Interest or aptitude. It does
mean that one would not waste
time, energy, and effort by rac-
ing to have a certain date placed
on the college diploma. In many
vocations the general education
program of the freshman and
sophomore years provides pre-
requisites and background suf-
ficient for concentration pro-
grams or major programs. The
thoughtful and serious students
are never in such a hurry that
they fail to attain their achieve-
ments according to their high-
est respective potentialities.

Greeny cars

By Yvonne Hooks
Now as I was young and hap-
py with playmates in the green-
years of childhood, time shot
forth in ei.chusiastlc spurts of
restless sleeps, in impatient
mouthfuls of food, in the weary
walk of a harrassed mother, in
full-bodied leaps to playmates
and playtime

The day. rolling from the dark
abyss of night as overheated
broth surges forth from its hot
receptacle, lightened and
dawned on several children
scantily clothed against the
summer heat. I, among them,
housewife in a restless brood of
many^husband, mother, sister,
sister-in-law, distant cousin, dog,
cat. rabbit, and four grass roots
busied myself by making pa-
latable camphor leaves and
sycamore shavings and wet,
smooth mud. Served from flat
tin pans of old metal, the "vi-
tals" made a gruesome dish. Af-
ter happy hours of doing liair
tlie grass roots like silent suf-
ferers moved spinelessly in the
hands I and my playmates,
browned by sun and weary from
busyness and doing fell sound-
lessly asleep.

The Party

By Frances J Carter

It was my sixtli year in a gar-
den of summer roses. The dor-
ling buds of May sang to their
stems as tlie golden touches of
the speechless candles danced
above the honey-breathed cake

Noon, like an untroubled
brook, brouglit many youtliful
smiles. The summer sun winked
her eye and smiled at the laugh-
ter-filled roses dashing about
the boundless garden. The un-
wasted nioments ran swiftly
away and I. the fairest of all
roses, found myself dreaming of
unfading flashes of happiness.

The Trip

That JSever Was

By Robert Tlndal
How vivid is the memory of
the day of my first trip on a
choo-choo. I arose with the sun
to prepare to leave, happy as a
lark in early spring. I gulped
my breakfast and guzzled my
milk.

I remember my mother's say-
ing, "You look like a young calf
around the mouth." As she
wiped my face and hands, I
clamored to be dressed so that
I would be ready to leave when
time came, which was not until
tile dark shadows fell across the
porch. To me all the world was
bright and shiny.

Swiftly and from out of no-
where it suddenly began to grow
dark and claps of thunder rum-
bled and streaks of light flashed
into the room and the sound of
small stones hitting the roof
resounded in my ears. The drops
began slowly at their birth but
grew to manhood with the hour.

My mother reminded me that
if the rain continued we would
have to postpone the trip. On
hearing this, I uttered a silent
prayer that the rain would soon
cease. But the rain continued to
fall in torrents, and soon the
street was not visible. And thus
the dream of a trip died with
the death of the day.

Jiuigle Reigti

By Rosa Lee Boles
The air was fresh and filled
with the scent of crushed green-
ery. And just as the greenery
was crushed, so was my pride
because I could not soar across
the huge stone structure that
rose out of the ground between
thickly set trees.

These stone structures, in dif-
ferent shapes and sizes, appeared
to me as a pyramid would to an
ant. A sturdy pole and a little
force on my part was all that
was needed for me to sail
through the air from one struc-
ture to another.

To those who were more ex-
perienced at this art, I was
green, because of my lack of
know-how: and yellow, because
of my being afraid. My mind
finally made up. I faced the
problem squarely and took the
first leap. I made it. Hours
passed, but youth does not feel
the touch of weariness. Fear had
been conquered and self-assur-
ance was at its peak. I was
queen and ruler of my childhood
jungle.

A Yearbook Letter

Dear Katie,

While down in your fair city
last weekend, I went to State's
football game with some friends.

I received a note in the mail
the other day from Savannah
and I thought it was a letter
from you until I read the ad-
dress and found it was from the
editor of the yearbook at Sa-
vannah State.

I met her during the half and
she promised me some material
on the publication of a college
yearbook. Mrs. Nichols stated in
her letter that the cost of the
book was most important.

To help with the cost this year
the staff is working on some
new plans in which everyone
can share. It seems that every-
one helped Savannah Siate^s
yearbook.

Have you subscribed yet?
Don't forget to reserve one for
me. I'm sure you can spare
Sl.OO! I am enclosing $2.50 plus
your dollar deposit.
Thanks for your kindness.
Your friend.

Schools For Young Gel lliuU-rHav;

Powell Lah in New

By Daniel Washington
Powell Laboratory School and
the College Nursery School have
made some improvements dur-
ing the past year Powell Lab
in form of a new building and
the nursery in the form of a
well-developed program for the
coming year.

Powell Laboratory School, un-
der the principalship of Mrs
Dorothy Hamilton, formerly lo-
cated on the west end of the
College campus, moved into a
new building at the beginning
of the 1957-58 school year. The
new building is located on the
right hand side of Taylor Road
entering from Victory Drive. It
has eight classrooms and an
average enrollment of thirty
students per class. On the right
wing is located the cafetorium.
Here lunch is served and as the
name implies, this part of the
building is also used for enter-
tainment. The new cafetorium
affords an opportunity for the
children to become well versed in
the social aspect of the school
program, according to Mrs.
Hamilton.

In its new location Powell Lab
runs on the same level as other
elementary schools do through-
out the county. The classes
range from the first to the sev-
enth grade with approximately
eight teachers to give instruc-
tion.

Biiildiiitr

Tlie College Nursery, under
the direction of Miss Zclia
Owens, has begun its fall in-
struction in child development.

In an interview Miss Owens
had this to say, "Under a con-
trolled program the nursery tries
to develop the social, emotional,
physical, mental, and intellec-
tual characteristics of the
child."

Most of this is accomplished
through group activities. Play
and other group activities are
supervised, either by the direc-
tor or by students who are en-
rolled in Child Development
Classes. Upon entering the nur-
sery physical examinations are
given the children.

The Nursery has been in oper-
ation for several years at Sa-
vannah State College as a part
of the total program of the in-
stitution The children attend-

require a higher scholastic aver-
age for graduation and better
performance from the first
quarter on. Admission require-
ments to the University were not
changed, so that. RenortilTy
speaking, any graduate of a
flrstgrade high school .still may

a freshman ranking seholastl-
cally In t,he lowest third of hl.s
high school cla.ss will be admit-

seems to defy the fast modern
trend of our life today by her
slow, quiet, but accurate actions

which she participates, and her
everyday life All these things
may make her appear to the
readens of Spotlight who do not
know Miss Glover as a dull per-

Reading Clinic Meets Studenl Needs;
Offers Opporliinilio for Self-IIelp

Under the direction of Robert
Holt, assistant professor in the
Department of Languages and
Literature, the Savannah State
College Reading Clinic begins
the 1957-58 year of instruction
at the college.

Since the need of students and
teachers to read and interpret
material effectively has become
apparent to many educators as
a vital problem that needs look-
ing into, programs such as the
one functioning at Savannah
State have proven to be of great
help to many students and
teachers.

The program is supervised by
an instructor in the English De-
partment who has been trained
to do this specialized work.
Many students attend the CUnic
and they are derived from three
sources: (1) students are recom-
mended by the Office of General
Education; (2) students are rec-
ommended by teachers who rec-
ognize weaknesses of students;
13) students who desire to im-

prove their reading ability vol-
unteer to come.

The Clinic offers many oppor-
tunities for self-improvement as
well as supervised improvement.
The Clinic attempts to work out
any type problem which the stu-
dent might have. Speed, com-
prehension, and vocabulary
building are emphasized to im-
prove the ability on the stu-
dents' part to do study-type
work. Students are given tests
upon entering the Clinic to find
out their weaknesses; after this
is done the program is individ-
ualized to meet the need of each
student. The total program is
essentially book - centered, but
some use of mechanical devices
is employed.

The Clinic is open four days
a week and no registration is
required. Mondays, Wednesdays.
and Fridays the Clinic is open
at the third and fifth periods
110:20-11:10. 1:30-2:20); Tues-
days. Wednesdays, and Fridays
at the sixth period 12:30-3:30).

The Death Of "Mr. Footbair

Savannah Slate
Plays 6-6 Tie

Edward Waters College of
Jacksonville set up a touchdown
with a 53-yard pass on a long-
shot gamble and went on to a
come-from-behind 6-6 tie with
Savannah State College in the
Tigers season opener before
about 2.100 October 5.

The bullet - like passing of
quarterback Allen Sistrunk and
fine catches by ends Bart
Thornton and Vince Taylor were
responsible for the third quarter
strike into the end zone by the
Floridians.

Willie Batchelor. the Quitman
whiz and 1956 SEAC all-confer-
ence halfback, scooted 15 yards
on a pitchout from quarterback
Sammy White in the second
quarter to put the Tigers ahead
but fumbles and interceptions
halted their offense in the sec-
ond half.

Edward Waters was at its own
45 in the fourth period and suc-
ceeded in a gamble on a fourth
down and nine to go play. Sis-
trunk fired to Thronton at the
Savannah 40 and the big end
raced to the two before he
was dropped. Two running plays
failed so Sistrunk fired another
strike to Taylor who pulled it
in for six points. A bad snap
prevented the conversion and
the game stood at 6-6, where it
remained the rest of the way.

Halfback Ulysses Stanley went
15 yards for a first half Savan-
nah State touchdown but a pen-
alty nullified the score. Batche-
lor on another occasion ran 40
yards to the Jacksonville 15 but
the ball went over on a fumble
during a succeeding play.

The Savannah scoring drive
was helped by a 30-yard pass
from Sammy White, playing his
first game on offense after first-
stringer Roland James was hurt
in a practice session.

Football Facts

By Emma Lue Jordan

Did you know that:

Football is one of the most
popular college sports in the
United States.

The first football game
in the United States was played
in November. 1869. Rutgers de-
feated Princeton playing Soccer
rules.

Before the game starts, the
referee tosses a coin in the pres-
ence of the field captains of the
two teams. The captain winning
the toss chooses one of the fol-
lowing privileges The loser has
the other privilege:

1 To choose whether his
team will kick or receive.

2^To choose the goal his team
will defend.

Each team has eleven men.
seven in the line and four in
the backfield.

The game starts with the kick
off.

The ball can be advanced in
four different ways:

1 The player can run with
the ball.

2 The ball can be thrown or
passed.

3_The ball may be advanced
because of a penalty.

4 A kick, or punt, may ad-
vance the ball.

A team can lose the ball four
ways:

l_It can fail to make ten
yards in four downs.

2 The ball carrier can drop,
or fumble the ball.

3 A defensive player can
catch, or intercept, a pass.

4 The offensive team can
punt the ball.

A touchdown, or six points, is
scored when the team to which
the ball legally belongs com-
pletes a down, and any part of
the ball is on, above, or behind
the other team's goal line.

Profirani Study
Underway At NYU

New York, N. Y, (LP,) The
first thorough revision of NYU's
University College curriculum
since 1914, based on recommen-
dations of the Special Commis-
sion on Curriculum, requires
careful study and a correspond-
ing delay before implementation
into the arts program, accord-
ing to Dean William B. Baer.

Major recommendations in-
clude basic revision of degree
prerequisites, expansion of the
honors program, institution of
permanent term grades, in.stead
of year grades, area majors,
four-hour language courses, a
committee to supervise required
studies, and elimniation of point
credit from the basic ROTC pro-
gram.

The Commission set its re-
quirements for the degree as
demonstrated knowledge or pro-
ficiency in oral and written
English, the history and liter-
ature of Western civilization,
two social sciences, one natural
science and completion of basic
ROTC or physical training. But

Because of his peculiar tilfts,

Mr. Worthy was one of eleven

Freshmen will be allowed to

New courses which combine

combining physics and chemis-
try may be used to satisfy the
requirement for one year of a

m^. some culprit dealt a mortal
blow to "Mr. Football." No one
knows the real reason for the

whispered that "Mr. Football"
had become too big a man. Ac-

as the students are concerned,
he may as well be. Late at night
ho can be seen limping sadly
across the campus soliloquizing
about the wondrous days before
his downfall. With deep nostal-
gia he faces the Athletic Field
nightly, wondering if he will
over rid himself of the terrible
nuUady which now plagues him.

Today fans no longer come
from afar, and those who are

"Mr. Football" hobbles on the

ThrouKhoiil America today, hleh school Braduales are enterlne

insiilulions of hlfher learnine. As Ihe dawn of their rolleee careers

begins they find themselves helni; oriented into an environment

tvhlch 'is completely different from the

iously.

These students come from dif-
ferent towns and cities Each
brings with him his own pecu-
liar characteristics and Ideas.
Expressing these Ideas Is one of
the main objectives of the stu-
dents. Teachers attempt to em-
phasize expression of Ideas In
their classes. They want to
know what a student thinks,
how he thinks, and whether his
thoughts are Important enough
to share with other pc!0|)le.

To find out some of the an-
swers to these questions, two
staff reporters Interviewed sev-
eral members of the Freshman
class about their reactions to
college life. Below are some of
their responses,

Kllse Uryant said, "Being In
college Is a learning experience
and the teachers are veiy help-
ful In trylnl! to get us llhe
freshmen) adjusted to college'
life."

"College life Is wonderful and
challenging," stated l.uara Oar-
vln, "Teachers and up|)erclass-
inen are very helpful,"

Closely eonectcd with the aca-
demic side of the college Is the
social life,

l.iilii Kell Clianec (ixprcsscd
licr views on the social asijccl of
college life by saying, "I feel as
If I have more freedom hci'c at
Savannah State College than I
had at my high school. There
arc more things to do here and
more places to go. Since I've
been here I've made many
frhuids, both uppcrclassmen and
freshmen. The atinosi)here Is
very pleasant,"

One unidentified Interviewee
declared, "I don't believe the so-
cial program here Is as organ-
ized as It shoiUd be. When I was
In high school, we gave ciulte a
number of dances and other ac-
tivities. Since I've been here,
only two dances have been giv-
en. Now that we are In college,
I believe we should be treated
nice adults."

Out of every group of individ-
uals there are some who arc
able to lead others. Concerning
leadership, vice president of the
class, Alfonso McLaiii, said,
"Leadership Is essential for any
striving organization In order to
become successful In Its work."

These are .some thoughts of
the freshmen who liave looked
Into their minds and tried to
express their opinions about
some problems they have met
and some experiences tiley have
had thus far.

For some, it was too early to
give a definite answer; for oth-
ers, the orientation period Is
challenging, a learning experi-
ence, a process of growing up,
a time to accept responsibility
and leadership.

Wry Industry, New York City.

He explored the subject from
a military, economic, scientific
and political view. The satellite
program In the United States is
termed as project "Vanguard"
and. in Ru.HSla termed "Sput-
nik" Mr. Mendenhall stated
the launching of "Sputnik" was
an event centered around the
I O Y I International Geophysi-
cal Year), the period of time
from July, 1957, to December 31,
1958. During the I G Y a group
of nations were to attempt
the launching of a satellite.

Russia, on October 4, 1957,
sent an earth satellite, the first
satellite, spinning through space.
It weighs 184 pounds, has a
speed of 18,000 miles an hour,
and altitude of 560 miles. Mr.
Mendenhall stated that the
launching of "Sputnik" could
mean control of the Earth. How
much technical data Russia has.
It Is not known, but, he stated,
"In the launching of this satel-
lite, Russia is a jump ahead of
the United States." The types of
Information obtained were listed
as temperature, objects In con-
tact, measure of cosmic rays,
corrosion and measurement of
pressure. Pressure as the great-
est disadvantage of sending hu-
man slnto space was further
cited In the talk. A suit has been
completed by the Navy but its
tightness made it undesirable
for human wearing. Mr. Men-
denhall cited another hazard in

human space travel, the possi-
bility of returning.

In stating some of the possible
reasons the United States lost
the satellite race, he stated the
three stages necessary to set a
satellite spinning in space. They
were: (1) maintenance of a ve-
hicle; 121 adequate energy; C3l
high enough altitude. Difficulty
seems to be In the maintenance
of adequate energy to orbit the
satellite. He further stated the
other po.sslble reasons for delay
In "Project Vanguard" as being
political, the secondlzing of the
project, and the competition
made existing possibly in the
separate branches of the mili-
tary forces.

The attending students and
faculty members listened Intent-
ly to the statements concerning
the "Artificial fellow traveler
around the earth." In the faces
of each of them, was an ex-
pression hoped never to be seen
In these rich United States. As
the question and answer period
progressed, tones of desperation
seeped into the voices of the
audience. Yet, our fears can not
Imagine the fears of our allies,
who found hope and a measure
of security in alliance with us.

The library is to be commend-
ed for making the initial step
toward broadening campus ac-
tivity after class hours The talk
was thoroughly enjoyed and we
look forward to many enriching
talks In the future.

Try New Demerit
System At Colby

WatervlUe, Me. ' IP.) The
Women's Student League on the
campus of Colby College has
adopted a new simphfied de-
merit system. By this revised
system, offenses, which previous-
ly have been treated singularly,
are now put on a cumulative
basis

In this system, the women will
have much more leeway regard-
ing petty offenses, since no ac-
tion can now be taken against
them until they have been fined
ten demerits- The Women's
League felt that "campusing"
was beginning to lose its effec-
tiveness. The revised demerit
system will give a more positive
attitude toward penalties, and
an opportunity for individual
Improvement.

Furthermore, the "repeated
offenders' of dormitory regula-
tions will now appear before in-
terdorm council when they have
accumulated ten demerits, while
girls who have forgotten only
two or three minor regulations
will be more fairly treated.

This system will allow the
dorm councils to function as
house governing bodies, Instead
of as penalty courts. The entire
system, it was emphasized here,
is an adult approach to the vio-
lations which occur most fre-
quently and is an equitable sys-
tem for college women.

have approved an unlimited cuts
proposal for the 1957-58 aca-
demic year. Absence privileges
do not apply to the attendance
requirement for Chapel unci
Physical Education.

Two other changes in the aca-
demic rules were promulgated:
Effective with the class enter-
ing in September, 1957, any stu-
dent who has not received at
the end of a term passing grades
in four courses with grades of
at least seventy In two of these
courses will be placed on pro-
bation for the following term,

The faculty also voted to
tighten the "D" rule. In order to
enter his junior year, a student
must have grades of 70 In at
irast five full courses or the
quivalent in one semester
r'ourse.

In another local move to
strengthen the scholarship pic-
ture, the Inter-fraternlty Coun-
cil has voted to ral.se the aver-

tion states that no man shall
be pledged to a fraternity after
the entrance of the Class of '61
unless he .shall have a 70 aver-
age at the conclusion of the se-
mester prior to his pledging.

Commenting on the status of
fraternities on this campus,

Choosinp^ A Career

llv .Inliiiiiv ( ;irii|)lM-ll, .\r.

It Is an obvious fuel that virtually every student who enters
collogo docs so with tht; jjurpose of preparing himself for a career,
The choice of u suiiiible career Is one of the most important, and
at the same time, one of tlie most difficult decisions that an indi-
vidual Is called upon to make. Much frustration, disappointment,
and bitterness ai-lse In later life because of an unwise career choice
made while In coJleRe.

Not too long ago, th(;rc was practically but a single career that
was open to a Negro college graduate in Uie South, That career
was teaclilng. But in recent yours, there has been a startling re-
versal of thut trend. Our economy toduy is hlglily developed, culling
for skills and technical knowhow wUliout much regard to who
possesses them. ThLs has greatly aided the Negro, opening to hini
many opportunltiivs in Industry and business, which previously
were seultKl.

A great deal of counselling and orientation Is given to entering
students today. But many still cling to the old careers Instead of
branching out, into tlie vast technical world. The economic emanci-
pation of the Negro seonis to lie In tlie field of technology, where
knowledge and ability are the prime requirements for employment.

Two of the foremost motives for choosing any career are the
pecuniary benefits that arc reaped, and the degree of freedom
that Is grunted to the individual In the performance of his job.

Teachers' salaries lug pitifully when compared with those in
other fields, und raises are slow and infrequent. Bonuses and other
incentives for efficiency und top-rate performances are entirely
lucking. And recently academic freedom hus taken a severe punish-
ment. With the nuiiu'i'ous loyulty ouths, pledges to uphold purticu-
Inr institutions, restrii'tlons on membersliip In certain organiza-
tions, and many other legislative impositions, it is difficult to see
how one can ttiueh the truth witliout transgressing a statute and. or
Jeopardizing his job.

It would be qiilte wise for one who Is just entering college to
reexamine liis career choice in light of recent developments, and
if n choice 1ms not as yet been made, to inquire Into the numerous
job opportimltles that are available in otlier fields.

The Pilgrims, despite the hardships they had endiu'ed during
their first, trying year In America, gathered together in their re-
spective settlements to Ihank and give praise to God. This is con-
sidered by many as tlie first Thanksgiving. There is a story that
even the Indians joined in this thanksgiving.

It is fitting that we today pause to give praise and thanks-
giving to God for the many blessings we have received.

Each student enrolled at Savannah State College is equally
i-esponslble tor maintaining the campus and its facilities. Pride in
one's campus should be tlie enforcing agency.

A school Is usually judged by the type of people It produces,
but very often It is judged by appearance. For the benefit of those
who do not know. Savannah State College's campus possesses a
stantly used; so. why do some of us take short cuts across tlie grass'?
in the country. Which of you would choose to mar the beauty of
our moss-laden oaks with trash? Tourists are often riding about
our campus. Would you have them leave with a picture distorted
by litter which should have been put In one of the receptacles
distributed about the campus?

We all know that grass will not grow In a path which Is con-
stantly used, so, why do some of us take short cuts across the grass'?

Most of us who drive automobiles are guilty of disfiguring the
campus. Yes, we are as guilty as the "lltter-bug" and the "grass
crusher" We should park In designated parking areas only, and
not give the Impression of disorganization by parking in front of
buildings and blocking driveways. Remember, our campus repre-
sents each of us.

It is hoped that when this article Is read, each student will
develop a new pride in his campus and make himself personally
responsible for maintaining It.

As the periscope focu.se.s on the international picture, it brings
into relief many incidents of undetermined influence on the nerv-
ous peace and tranquility of our mid-century world.

Probably the most a.stoundlng is the firing of the second earth
satellite by Ru.ssia. Sputnik II is whirling around in outer space
at the phenomenal rate of over 17,840 miles per hour. 1,056 miles
out In space. Along with its multitude of electronic gadgets. Sputnik
11 has a live dog inside. An effort to gain data on the effects of
outer .space travel on living animals is being made. Data such as
a record of the breathing, heart beat and blood pressure of Curly
fthe dog's name In English) are being collected for future use in
man's Invasion of space. The military significance of this satellite
1b said by some to He in its weight, which might be taken as an
Indication that Russia has developed a new version of the dreaded
Intercontinental ballistic missile.

NATO MEETING

The peri.scope now swings to the West and NATO, a summit
meeting which is planned for Paris in December The purpose of
this meeting is to evaluate the West's position in the light of the
recent Rus.sian advances in the field of space travel and the military
.significance of these advances. One of the topics that will receive
a groat deal of attention is the suggestion that the U.S. and the
other western nations pool their scientific resources in an effort to
speed up their programs and catch up with the Russians,
U. S. IN VIEW

The periscope moves swiftly across the Atlantic Ocean which
has shrunk to the size of a small pond in these times of outer-space
lnva.sIon. At present the country is involved in discussions of Ameri-
can stereotyping and anli-lntellectualism, said by some to be the
real reason for our failure to keep pace with a fast-changing
scientific world.

These discussions are highlighted in the case of one Private
Ernie Schultz, 24-year old mathematician, who was inducted into
the Army and assigned duties as clerk typist at Fort Lee. Virginia.
This situation was brought to the attention of defense department
officials by Pvt. Schultz's former professor, Dr. Linderman. who
reported that Schultz had Invented his own system of algebra to
work certain problems that could not be worked any other way.
Dr Linderman called Schultz the greatest mathematical brain he
has ever encountered.

THE THING'.'??

Moving southwest to Texas, the periscope hears reports of a
mysterious, brightly lighted phantom object squatting in roadways
and then taking to the air just as mysteriously as it appears. Dozens
of people have told of witnessing this phenomenon which is said
to be about 200 feet long and egg-shaped. No adverse effects have
been noted, except that it causes power failure in motor vehicles
and that it has caused several people to faint at the sight of it,
Are we to believe that while we are invading space, spacemen are

fantastic. Can you?

To Sail Beyond The Sunset

Lovers'' Love

By Johnnie Lee Mitchell

Far away a velvet blanket,

Sparked with gleaming, twink-
ling starlight,

Rains deliglitfui rays in drop-
lets;

Lovers' love's so soft and tender

Lovers' love's so rich and so
bright.

Far away a distant drummer

Beats love notes to grant love
sight;

Fills tlie night with peaceful
slumber.

Lovers' love's so soft and warm-
ing.

Lovers' love's so rich and so
bright.

A'o Thing Stays

By Mary Jean Lester
In the gay briglit weatlier of

sharing Spring,
The flowers winked tlieir eyes

as they began to sing.
For they were happy and their

hearts were gay.
And the sun shone brightly to

the birth of the day.

The flowers thought Spring

would last forever,
And they would only know tlie

joy of fair weather.
But Autumn came, slowly.

dressed serenly in gold
And grasped the .loy wliich tliey

strived to hold,

Tiie flowers hushed their sing-
ing and lowered their eyes.

And drooped their faces is if to
hide.

To their surprise Autumn had
friglitened

The fragrance and beauty which
Spring had brightened.

Secret

By Emma Lue Jordan
When everyone turns you down.
And everything goes wrong.
She will keep a secret for you.

When you feel that you can

trust no one.
Just look at her shining face
Makes you know
Slie will keep a secret for you.

Though the night may seem so

dark.
Then her starry face peeks
Through the fold
Just to say, "There is someone

waiting
To keep a secret for you."

The showers go when comes the

month of May.
The silver night is pushed aside

by day.
But love, true love, is lasting;

it will stay.

A child is born; he lives but for

a day
His hair, so soft, will soon be

turned to grey;
Much cherished youth will then

have passed away.
But love, true love, is lasting; it

will stay.

American Education Week

This month we celebrate
American Education Week.
Schools and colleges, parent
teacher associations, civic and
lay groups will turn their special
attention to American schools
Effort will be made to do some
evaluation of the efficiency of
the schools, to clarify purposes
of education, to project present-
day needs and future trends.

The celebration this year will
be observed under conditions
quite different from those of
former years. During the last
month, events have moved rap-
idly enough to get a clearer pic-
ture of the immediate present
and the not too distant future.
Recent achievements in the de-
velopment of earth satellites will
have a special bearing on edu-
cation and schools everywhere.
In one aspect, the trend of re-
cent years toward the inclusion
and improvement of the teach-
ing of science and mathematics
will receive added implementa-
tion and provision. Concentra-
tion and training in these areas
will be required to participate
adequately in the conquering of
outer space.

It may well be expected that
exploits and ventures in this
area will tend to divert atten-
tion of nations from war and
liuman destruction which occu-
pied the stage for the past two
decades. The relaxing of strife
among nations may permit col-
laboration and cooperation im-
possible to envision before. The
kind of cooperation and partici-
pation required to explore other
bodies in the universe will place
emphasis on other fields than
the natural sciences and mathe-
matics. The social sciences and
the humanities will receive new
orientations in terms of world
collaboration rather tlian lim-
ited national or hemispheric em-
phasis.

This year attention will be
given to the early impacts cre-
ated by the launching of Sput-
niks 1 and II. The American
schools will be looked at criti-
cally in terms of national par-
ticipation in this new venture.
Students in college today repre-
sent the advance guard of the
revolutionary new era that is
dawning. The boys and the girls
now enrolled in our colleges and
universities will be the ones
whom history will label as the
pioneers of outer space. The sat-
uration points expected in em-
ployment may disappear under
these new and absorbing ex-
ploits.

Students at all levels of the
college will find it necessary to
consider additional points of
orientation for their training
and development. Man every-
where on earth will be provided
witii a new outlook on life and
the universe. For many years to
come college students will be ex-
pected to participate earlier and
longer in man's conquest of out-
er space and planets that lie
beyond the earth.

W. K. PAYNE,

President.

Siam
Who said to her lover, young

"If you kiss me of course.
You will have to use force
But goodness knows, you are

Editorial Examination

(ACP) Editors of the Southern Illinois university's EGYP-
TIAN began the year by stating their view of what a newspaper is.

What is a newspaper?

A disseminator of happenings, an advertising medium for busi-
ness houses.

A newspaper is both of these, plus a number of things But
above all. it is a free voice.

People may disagree as to what a paper should do. but most
will agree that a paper must be free. No one denies that freedom
can be abused. Nevertheless, freedom must be qualified, if it need
be. by truth, decency and high ideals.

New Fashions
In Hair Styling

By Katie M. Williams
Fashion tells us this Fall is
the season of the relaxed look
. . . Eased elegance ... A la
Chanel . . . comes to the fore
in a galajcy of fluid fabrics,
bloused and draped into soft
lines

To complement this feeling,
fashions in hairstyling have be-
come relaxed too. The new coif-
fures never look elaborately con-
trived or stiff . . but rather
are noted for their fluid, natural
lines. The bouffant is now modi-
fied to a soft, fluffy halo with
half moon curls framing the face-
If hair is swept back from the
face, it is done so in graceful
waves and dips, never skinned
tightly into a severe knot.

Of course, to keep your coif-
fure impeccably in fashion, your
beauty schedule should incluae
a generous and fastidious
amount of hair-care . . . Beauti-
ful hair is always clean and
shining.

Fashion Notes

By Emma Lue Jordan

The "Best Dressed Look" is
the pass word for this edition
in fashion.

It's what choices a woman
makes that gives individuality to
her dress.

Some DO's for smart campus
outfits :

1. Keep in style adopt the
new look to your individuality.

2. Blend your colors or use a
-Single color in various tones.

3. Fold in a scarf for that dif-
ferent look

4. Decide on one jewel simple
in form.

5. Wear a dark neutral shoe
at wil go well with all your
outfits).

Suggested colors for the
month: pale beige, wild cherry,
sea green and snow pink.

The Denison Ihiiversitv Fa<uillv
A])j)rovrs K('\ i.sod {.ow Program

Granville. O. il. P.) The faculty at Denison University has
passed a revised version of the cove program which had been
recommended by the Curriculum Committee. Faculty passage cul-
minates the Curriculum Committee recommendation, endorsement
by the Committee on General Education and Senate approval.
According to Dr. Parker Lich- of a survey which revealert thai

tenstein. dean of the college.
"The adopted program has at-
tempted to introduce an clement
of flexibility into the general
education program." A year of
foreign language and six hours
of literature are required under
the new system.

Other core requirements re-
main the same making a total
of 60 or 62 hours of general edu-
cation depending on whether
the student takes a beginning or
intermediate language course.
However, a student with the per-
mission of his major adviser,
may waive up to eight hours of
the 60-62 with the exception of
Core 11-12, 18. 21-22. and one
science. Thus the minimum gen-
eral education requirement be-
comes 52-54 hours.

Under the new system, major
advisers may . . . uiily waive
courses with the approval of the
(Jeparlnient chairman or by de-
partment policy. Dr. Liehten-
stein said I hat waiver eases
would be considered on an in-
dividual basis accordiiiK lu in-
dividual needs. The revised core
program will be effective with
the Class of lfl61.

The new program is essential-
ly a compromise of faculty opin-
ions on the purpose and aims of
a general education program.
Four main areas were considered
in the revision of the present
program, according to Dean
Lichtenstein.

FOUR MAIN AKKAS

1. It was felt that the adopted
program combined with the pro-
ficiency exams would create a
more flexible and workable pro-
gram. By utilizing proficiency
examinations, capable students
may waive courses in addition to
the eight waivable hours of the
core program.

2. Foreign language was made
part of the program as a result

Denison was one of the I3il
schools out of 830 surveyed that
did not require a foreifin lan-
Ruaiie for the A.U. decree. Con-
sequently the proj-ram iuiuriui-
ralcd Ihe tanj-uai-e requirenu-nt
without subslilule.s or allernales
into tlic core syslom,

Itccause (he l;uiiU> was not
overwhchninj;ly disposed to add
the language requirement only
one year has been made com-
pulsory. However, it is hoped
that students will be motivated
to take the serond year as an
elective.

:i Inlroduclion ol Ihe new re-
quirements seems lo make the
proposed Bachelor of Fine Arts
degree unnecessary at the pres-
ent lime.

4. Willi specifle waiver provis-
ions, the new program would
make it less nevessary to grant
special exemptions for students
involved in 3-2 plans, ROTC and
education.

IOWA STATIC WORKS

If oiitinuvd lioKi iiitiii- II

students will have equal oppor-
tunity to study old tests.

4. Departmental committees to
review tests before they are giv-
en so as to make sure that ques-
tions cover the principles In-
volved, not mere trivia.

Pop Music Views

(ACPj Columnist Jean-Paul
Richard surveys the pop music
scene f o r NORTHEASTERN
liEWS. Northeastern University.
Boston, and comes up with these
views:

Let's look at what happened
to "pop" music In the last few
months. Some changes have oc-
curred.

Roci: and roll is still with us.
It may have lost a bit of its pop-
ularity, but not enough to indi-
cate that it is on its way out as
some people have predicted. A
good beat stiil seems to be what
a lot of listeners want.

The last six months have seen
the rapid rise and the even more
rapid downfall of Calypso. The
Caribbean sound was the rage
for a while, but it has now faded
out of the picture almost com-
pletely . . .

The lack of enough authentic
material and the poor job of
Imitation probably cut the
calypso craze short more than
anything else. When the demand
for calypso tunes arose, the mar-
ket was flooded with poor imi-
tations.

Calypso may be going out, but
Hawaiian music seems to be on
the way in. At present there are
several songs with sounds from
the islands which are rapidly
gaining popularity . . .

The latest and most welcome
addition to the music scene are
the "comeback" songs. These old
standards have been freshened

College Admissions
Requirements Examined

The Admissions Officers and
Registrars for the fifteen state-
supported colleges and universi-
ties have just completed a two-
day conference in Atlanta. The
purpose of the meeting was to
consider how students would be
selected, as the number of appli-
cants for college grow in the
next decade The group met
jointly with representatives of
the public schools, the State De-
partment of Education, and the
College Entrance Examination
Board

Last year, the College Board
Scholastic Aptitude Test, part of
a nation-wide testing program
for college admission, was re-
quired for all entering students
in state colleges and universities.
Test scores were not used to se-
lect students, but were filed
away to determine later if stu-
dents with different test scores
make different grades.

The comparison or scores vers-
us grades will be made separate-
ly for each of the 15 colleges in
the System. Dr. J. A. Davia. Di-
rector of Testing for the Board
of Regents of the University
System, stated: "It is quite like-
ly that tests which predict
grades accurately in an institu-
tion may not work for a second
college. "

The Admissions officials also
made plans for testing the value
of other information about the
applicant for use in selection of
freshmen It has already been
noted that applicants with good
high school records and high
test scores do better than appli-
cants with the same test score
but with poor high school rec-
ord.

The group felt that only act-
ual experience would show how-
much weight can be put on the
high school transcript, princi-
pal's recommendations, and oth-
er devices used in selecting stu-
dents. "Only when this informa-

"and after It has been tested by
admitting all applicants anyway
to see if predictions made on
this basis would work out, will
tests or other data be used in
screening out poor college risks."

The group also noted the im-
portance of college entrance
testing for the high schools and
the need for exchanged Inform-
ation and ideas with teachers
and principals, Mr W, N Dan-

Frequently hi life an Individual chooses to follow a path which
can only lead l.o .self-annihllivtlon, Despite Ihe pleas and advice of
those who are able to Judge that the ptilh he has chosen is the
wrong one, he oftentimes continues to walk down tlie path to sclf-
destruetlon. A nation being composed of but an aggregation of Indi-
viduals with with (I (!onu)ion language and other Idenillylng char-
acteristics Is HUbJecl, to the sami- pitfalls as the Individual.

Nations are often saved from destruction by the same process
An ominous event which portends grave consequences for the
ultimate well'nrc of the nation often pinpoints long neglected ills
that have bee nallowed to exist despite the caustic and vociferous
cries oi an unlieeded few.

The lull consequences of Sputniks I and II upon American
customs and Institutions cannot at this time be fully appraised.
But the impact of tlie Sputniks has already focused attention on
the American educational systeui and on the country's traditional
attitude towards her Intellectunls.

l''or years a sinall minority luis been viRoruusly criticizing our
schools aiitl eolb-Kes for their failure to maintain rigid aeademie
.sliiiulards. Thr illhited i urri<'uhinis. the distortions of Dewey's
))raKUiatlsin, and a host of olln-r ills, were in their words, inodueing
a mass of uneducated Indiviihials, totally unable to llilnk.

In vain were their cries, TlU'n along canw the Sputniks. Now
one hears a vast c(uicei'led c\-y lo lighten uii, foi' the survival of the
country may depend on the caliber of the thinkers that must be
produced to meet the challenge with which we are now confronted.

The Intelleelual lone not Interested In wliat Detroit is cooking
up for the next, year), has always foiuid America to be hostile and
cold. Viewed with susplclun and distrust, the Intellectual in America
has become an outsider, an alien. With the emphasis on practicality,
thinking rapidly became un- fashionable, and the thinker became
a liability one unable to act, The Intellectuals were made the
laughing stock of America by humorists and cartoonists. Scientists
and professors were caricatured to the extent that two well-known
stereotyped figures have emerged, to wit, the mad scientist and
the absent-minded professor,

Since the advent of the Sputniks, there luivc been some favor-
able sl^ns that pt-riiaps thr old Iraililional antipathy towards egg-
lieiids is beinn icsscniMl. U is in Icni buped thai siuli sif;ns are not

firmly enlrenebrd in American society as hotdogs and football.

Fear: iMaiTs (^oniiiioiu'sli Eiumiiv

Ily n V. Ncvels
The most ordinary thing for any liuman being to liave wrong
with him. next to the common cold. Is some kind of morbid fear.
Just about everybody has one or more of these neuroses and he
knows he has it; he knows It's utterly foolish and makes him ridi-
culous; he feels completely baffled as to how to cope with the
thing.

We're not going to discuss the ordh^ary fears that most of us
have at one time or other, usually in childhood. Such fears as fear
of the dark, of strange animals, of heights, of loud noises these are
not morbid fears, because most of us get rid of them in the process
of growing up. Of course. If we keep them and nurse them along
and suffer with them when we are adults, they become morbid
fears, but that's another story,

No, we're talking about the funny little eccentric fears that
just about everybody has. like a woman we read of once who could
walk into a lion's cage and never turned a hair, but an ordinary
little piece of fuzzy cotton wool would send her right off into a fit
of the the shakes. A psychologist found out what was the matter
with her: years before, she'd reached out in the dark when she was
half asleep and put her hand on something soft and fluffy and it
turned out to be a mouse. Then of course the psychologist had to go
back stilt further and find out why she was afraid of mice, but he
finally got her all straightened out.

Now probably ycu aren't afraid of wool, but it's a lead-pipe
cinch you're afraid of something^. These neurotic fears are legion;
one small dictionary lists seventy-six of them, all with fancy Greek
and Latin names. Claustrophobia is one of the most common fears
that's fear of being in enclosed places. A fine way to insure your
kids having that one when (hey grow up is to shut them up in a
dark closes as a punishment. Then there's agoraphobia, or fear of
wide-open spaces. You've heard about these people who never ven-

Evahiation Of
Excellence Needed

Recently our attention has
been called to the .status of the
United StaU'S in the field of
.scientific achievement. Many
Americans are trying to explain
how It happened that the Rus-
sians were able to launch satel-
iltes ahead of the United States
Since .scientific achievement de-
pends upon the quality and ex-
tent of education and training,
thi.s .shock and the resulting
confusion centered attention on
education.

In .some instances it has been
said that too few American col-
lege students are being educated
in the scientific fields. Others
Jiavc said that there is not only
a shortage of students but even
a greater shortage of teacTiers
who can direct the learning ac-
tlvllles. The shortage of teach-
ers has been attributed to mea-
ger salaries and low prestige of
the profession. Salaries and
monetary rewards can be in-
creased at a very rapid rate, but
the status of the leaching pro-
fession will move at a very much
slower rale.

It is possible that the .system
of values po.ssessed by many
Americans has not encouraged
those with superior abilities to
do their best. In many high
schools and colleges will be
found Indications of low regard
for excellence in scholarship,
leadership, character, and cre-
ative ability. One needs only to
study the officers of student
groupsclasses, clubs, sororities,
fraternities, and other socie-
tiesto discover that the Indi-
viduals best qualified have not
been in many Instances elected
to office

In too many organizations the
nominations and elections go to
individuals wlio are known to be
weak in scholarship, character.
integrity, vision, and leadership.
Students get into the habit of
thinking thai everyone is equal-
ly qualified fur all positions. In-
dividuals vary widely in abilities
and achievement at all levels of
growth. Keeognition and uliliza-
tion of tlie best in the group for
the purpose lo Uv served provide
for progress and growth. This
disregard for cxeellenee in mind,
boily. and personality favors the
devclopnu-nl ol cultural mediuc-
rity. A suciety whicli does not
make the best use of its gifted
intUviduals will find itself losing
status and limiting progress.

It is reasonable to suppose
that the values developed in
higli school and college will con-
tinue to be the values of men
and women after they have left
the campus It is likely that
shortages which have appeared
ni the scientific field may well
appear in the humanities and
the social sciences. Leadership in
all fields develops best and con-
tributes most when it operates
in a medium that encourages
progress.

Class groups, elubs, societies,
and fraternities which make use
of the talented and the shied
make a distinct contribution to
the perpetuation of able leader-
shij). Every individual is able to
evaluate the group or groups in
which he holds membership in
terms of the extent to which
proper values are placed upon
the quality of excellence in indi-
viduals. A study made by a com-
mittee might reveal wh;U the
students think of excellence as
it is exhibited in the various
organizations.

The Student Council Speaks

By Robert Tindal

Now that homecoming is over and the excitement generated by
it has left, we find the college atmosphere reluming once more to
the apathetic state During the homecoming celebration all activitier*
were attended by the students very religiously. How grand it would
be if all activities here at the college were attended with equal vigor.

Possibly the lack of school spirit exhibited by the students is
due to dissatisfaction by them with certain problems that confront
them. If so the Student Council would like very much to know
about these dissatisfactions and will endeavor to eradicate them.
We realize that there are problems confronting the students of our
college and all of the problems have answers and can be corrected
where necessary. Each student has the responsibility to himself and
to the school to search relentlessly for the answers and to work
unceasingly for the correction of those that need correcting. Your
Student Council is very much aware of the dissatisfaction of the
student body with certain practices and procedures here at the
College. We are aware also that some of these dissatisfactions are
valid and some are Invalid. We are concerned with both for various
reasons but most of all because we are here to serve you, but the
hands of the Council are tied unless the student body and the stu-
dents as individuals voice their grievances and support your Council
whole heartedly in its effort to relieve these situations that are
causing the dissatisfaction.

The Council wishes to serve you but it cannot if you make your
criticism out on the campus and make your grievances only to your
friends and form small cliques among yourselves and then proceed
to work against the school rather than for it, to the detriment of
the school and yourself We are interested and will seek for the
things right and deserving for you as mature adults. But if you as
others before you have done persist in divorcing yourself from the
issues that you are opposed to, then there is nothing that we can do
to relieve the situation.

If you have a legitimate problem the only mature way to seek an
answer Is to bring the problem to the attention of your Council
representative or any member of the Council, supplying him with
the necessary information and giving him evidence to support your
contention. Remember no one knows your problems if you keep
them to yourself and therefore nothing can be done about them.

We, the Council, believe that everyone affiliated with the college
is interested in you and your welfare. It has been said by persons
here that our students just don't want anything. We don't believe
this and want you to prove this statement is false.

Vhv Periscope

By Robert Tindal

The periscope shifted swiftly
from the troubled continents of
Africa and Europe to the U. S.
upon hearing of sudden illness
of President Eisenhower, suffer-
ing from what was initially diag-
nssed as a chill and finally as a
light stroke The president's
stroke caused many and varied
repercussions throughout the
world; echoes from the man on
the street in England that he
should return to his Gettysburg
from to fast drops on the stock
market on Wall Street. Sputnik
was even removed from the
lieadlines. No one can agree as
to the total effect this latest ill-
ness of the President, the third
in two years, will have on him
but his doctors and that is it
will leave no lasting impair-
ments of his faculties.

Now back to Africa and Eu-
rope where the situations gov-
erning the peace of the world
are magnified in the struggle of
the West to contain communism
within its present curtain.

Tlie Periscope finds the com-
petent Dag Hammarskjold in
Amnion attempting to calm the
latest uprising between Israel
and the Arabs which has flared
up over charges by Israel of bor-
der incidents. Also chief among

the agenda of items to be dis-
cussed is the effectiveness of
the UN truce machinery and the
dispute over Israel convoys to
Mount Seopus and Israeli en-
clave held by her inside Jordan
territory.

Moving the Periscope comes to
Spain, where the Spanish are
reported mapping tlie remnants
of rebel Moroccan troops who
attacked the Spanish Garrison
at Ifni. There is very little to
report from Ifni because the
Spaniards have cast a blackout
on ail news from this small Gar-
rison.

The Periscope observes, as it
sails back to America a rare oc-
currence The solicitation of the
Democratic candidate for presi-
dent in the last election Mr. Ad-
lai E. Stevenson as a foreign
policy consultant. Mr, Stevenson
was originally scheduled to ac-
company the President an dad-
vise him at the Paris conference
of NATO, to be held this month,
but due to the illness of the
President, who may send Mr.
Nixon, the Vice President, in his
place. Some Republicans are re-
luctant to send Mr. Stevenson
with Mr, Nixon for political rea-
sons.

Fashion \otes

Ahead For Ci>llt'i*'
By Emma Lue Jordan

In fashion with dress Having
your hair done today? Why not
get a new look a new hair style

The soft uncurled look is pop-
ular with the college set every-
where.

The suggested hair style of the
month:

A subtle delicate arrangement
with a charmingly feminine ap-
pearance. The hair is parted low
on one side and the sides are
quite long four inches but
curled and combed wide to seem
shorter. The back in beautiful,
a series of waves swirled. This is
a wonderful way for black hair
to look . The cut planned to
make it catch the light. This is
the contour, a great look for
fashions.

This season's richer and hand-
somer tweeds are handled with
a new unfitted look.

The young college lady has
seevral ways she likes to dress
for her day on the campus. They
are:

Coordinated separates which
are still stepping strong this sea-
son, Suggested styles and colors
are wool-and-full blend pull over
with a V neck outlined in the
giant tweed of the gored hip-
pocketed skirt- The second co-
ordinated separate is Tomato
red in simple lines. The first
separate in Gray tweed with

Fear: Man's Coninionest Enemy

If iinliniied from jMigv 2*
ture more than a block or so from home. That's what they've got.
The average person who has agoraphobia just feels mildly un-
comfortable and doesn't know why. if he's out in a wide flat space

Related to these two fears are fear of being aloft in the air,
fear of tunnels and basements, fear of mountains, of the ocean, etc
And you probably know somebody who just can't stay alone two
minutes. He had to be with somebody all the time, either he's rush-
ing from one engagement to another or friends come to see him,
and the minute they leave he's on the telephone trying to scare up
somebody else to spend an hour or so with. He has monophobia,
or fear of being alone. It's not that he's being sociable he just
can't stand being alone.

Then there's pantophobia, or fear of being In a crowd, and
xenphobia. which is fear of meeting strangers. There are morbid
fears of being in the company of men or women. There are fears
of being contaminated by dirt or germs, of catching some particular
disease: fear of certain colors, or fear of blood, of dogs or cats or
horses or snakes or spiders. Some people are even afraid of sum'ight
or cold wind or rain and of course thunder storms. There is the
fear of death, of water, of fire and of being poisoned.

But one fear that many people of this modern age have, and
especially college students, is the fear of not being able to succeed
in life. We as college students face this problem today because these
are hectic times and it seems to take more to succeed in life than
it used to. We enter college with the conviction that this will help.
College to many students is what the psychologist Is to an extreme
neurotic. It helps him to combat these fears.

But in the end it does one well to remember that he is not the
only one with fears. And man's worst enemy is fear.

Concern Over Control

<ACPj similar concern about
the freedom of a responsible
student Is reflected In Dave Ma-
ney's "View Point" column in
the AUBURN PLAINSMAN. Ala-
bama Polytechnic Institute. Au-
burn, Ala, Here he develops his
idea that "the morals of a stu-
dent are his own "

I've often wondered about the
set up of the university with re-
gard to their control of the pri-
vate lives of students. There
seems to be a tendency In many
states, Including Alabama, tor
the university to lessen their in-
fluence on the extra-curricular
life of the student. If the church
school, which was once Auburn,
could be compared with the uni-
versity that is Auburn today, the
change would be quite evident.

At Auburn, however, the re-
linquishing of this control has
rolled to a halt. Many of the
faculty and administrative per-
sonnel here still cling to the be-
lief that it is the duty of the
university to not only train and
educate minds and bodies but
also to regulate and govern the
moral standards of the students.
This may be well and good. It
does seem never the less that
such control is carried to un-
needed extremes.

Is such extraneous control ac-
tually necessary? A person while
attending college is generally
considered an adult by society.
He is considered an adult capa-
ble of making his own decisions
regarding both his personal
morality and his status as a stu-
dent If as a student, he falls to
make the correct decision and
fails scholastlcally. the universi-
ty has exerted a negative con-
trol In forcing him to make a
decision between success or fail-
ure as a student. The control of
the university thus has on a
student should be sufficient.

The morals of a student are
his own. They were formed
through parental and other In-
fluences many years before his
arrival at a university. His mor-
als may or may not be satisfac-
tory as judged. Why, though,
should It be the function of the
university to try to govern the
morality of the students? Adults
everywhere find the laws of the
land adequate for their private
lives.

Were this a church school,
with its restricted viewpoints in
many matters, the very beliefs
upon which such a school would
be founded would demand that
there be a method for the form-
ing and shaping of morals at the
college level. But this is not a
church school Nor is it some
sect to form the new moral
norms of society. This is a state
university, existing at the plea-
sure of the state, supported by
the state, and attended by stu-
dents of all religions, beliefs, and
morals Auburn is an institution
to provide a center of knowledge
where the eligible citizen may
continue to learn.

Dr. Horace Mann Bond. Dean. Atlanta University. School of

Alpha N"u chapter of Alpha Kappa Mu Honor Society held in
IVIeldriu:n Auditorium. January 22, 1958. Seven students were in-
ducted into this society and recognition was given to high school
honor students and tutors of the college.

"The Negro Scholar a Con-
tinuum." was the topic of Dr.
Bond's speech. He pointed out
that all men who wouldj be
scholars are a continuum. A re-
cent survey by Dr, Bond revealed
that most Negro educators' fore-
fathers had little or no educa-
tion.

Making a comparison with
Russia, he brought out the fact
that all thirty-two who helped
with Russian satellites, finished
school before the Revolution.
Concluding his speech, Dr. Bond
said. "Character, ambition, faith
in learning, and thoroughness
are the aspects of a scholar.
These are great aspects of a
continuum."

The candidates of Alpha Kap-
pa Mu Honor Society were in-

Crazy College Customs

(ACP) Fun and games on
campus get some editorial con-
sideration. This from the Fresno,
Fal,, junior college "Rampage";

The youth of today is probably
the group which is most heavily
attacked by public criticism and
censure. The younger college
generation Is not excluded from
this category.

During the 1920's and 30's col-
lege campuses In this country
saw widespread outbrcak.s of
radical behavior. Communist
groups were springing up on va-
rious campuses along with the
soapbox speakers who voiced
their radical opinions. Also,
bathtub gin parties and swallow-
ing goldfish were the rage In
college life.

Today's college student Is far
less apt to express himself or
his inner turmoils through such
unconventional methods as
those practiced 20 and 30 years
ago.

While it may be good that the
college student of today has be-
come far less explosive in his
mannerisms, the aura of con-
rormity he has assumed may be
considered lethal.

This situation may be consid-
ered far more dangerous than a
riotous student outbreak over
the outcome of a football game

With today's stress on social
acceptance and security many
students have been rendered
either fearful or incapable of
formulating opinions and ideas
of their own.

REAtJTIONS OF ALPHA
KAPPA MU CANDIDATES

By M B. Jones

Student reactions prompted by the induction ceremony of Alpha
Kappa Mu. Thursday, November 23. at Savannah State College
were expressed in informal interviews with three students; Willie
Hamilton, a science major, Betty Cumbess, an elementary education
major, and Margaret Bing. a business major. Dr. E. K. Williams.
advisor of AKM, disclosed information regarding the tutorial system
of Savannah State.

President congratulates John Stiles following a special assembly
opening the 1958 Pciio Drive. Standing left to right are: Robert
Tindal. Yvonne Williams. John Stiles, chairman of the colored
di\-ision for the Chatham County March of Dimes, Dorothy Davis,
Miss Savannah State. Carl Roberts, and President W. K. Payne.

Willie Hamilton stated that he
felt proud to become a member
of the honor society, but he in-
.sisted, "the general reaction is
difficult to explain". He said
that he had been inspired by
teachers and students and he
held several places open for his
classmates to follow.

Betty Cumbess said, "I saw
the induction ceremony in the
spring quarter of 1957, and I
felt that I would never become
a member of a group like this."
Betty Cumbess wa.s notified of
her eligibility by Dr E K, Wil-
liams. She also stated that the
.speech by Dr. Bond, guest speak-
er at the induction ceremony.
was meant to inspire.

Margaret Bing, a business
education major, expressed her
reactions in one word "proud,"
Margaret commented that the
two selections from the choir

at the induction ceremony were
beautifully sung.

A short interview with Dr
E. K- Williams, the advisor to
Alpha Kappa Mu, revealed that
the tutorial system at Savannah
State College, began In 1954-55.
This system Is primarily under
the direction of Alpha Nu chap-
ter. Each department head as-
sists in planning the program
and suggests students who are
suited to tutor for each depart-
ment. Dr. Williams .stated.

According to Dr, Williams, the
purpose of the tutorial system
is to stimulate scholarship, to
decrease the number of students
failing and to promote better
relationship between teachers
and students.

Dr. Williams further said tu-
tors have accompllshd much
with many students.

during the month of January
under the advlsorshlp of B, E.
Black, assLsLant profe.s.sor of .so-
cial science and H. M. Jason,
associate i)rufe.ssor of languages
and literature. With the ever-
Increa.slng inoblems that con-
front American .societies today,
many .students were prompt to
participate In the organization
of the club.

The club has as its three-fold
purpose; Mi to give the students
an opportunity to develop their
ability as public speaker.s; i'Z) to
give the students an opportunity
to discuss questions of current
Interest; and (3) to give the .stu-
dents an opportunity to match
their Intellectual powers with
students of other Institutions,

With these purposes in mind
It Is hoped that the students will
become more Interested In public
and national affairs which will
enable them to deal with prob-
lems In this society.

At present the debate question
being studied Is: "Be it resolved
that the requirement of mem-
bership in a labor organization
as a condition of employment
should be Illegal."

The following persons were
elected to office; President,
Grover Thornton; Vice Presi-
dent, Eugene J. Johnson; Secre-
tary, Yvonne Williams; Assistant
Secretary, Kay Frances Strip-
ling; Publicity Director, Daniel

The Revival of Schoolhm

By Harry V. Nevels

Patriotism has always been the mark of a democratic country
and here in America we treasure our national pride. Anything that's
American has the whole of the United States behind it Americans
are thought by Europeans to be egoists.

We Americans are proud of ourselves and our heritage. This
spirit of patriotism is evident in every phase of our lives. This
spirit Is a part of America itself.

At Savannah State College, we too have that spirit of patriotism
for our country, and we once had pride for our school. But tor
some reason or other we have lost some of that school pride that
we once had Some people call It lack of school spirit but we say
It is lack of SCHOOLISM. iSchoollsm means love of school, and
devotion to the welfare of one's school I, This spirit should and must
be revived. And this can only be accomplished when we as students
are aware of the needs of our school. We should not wait for the
president of our Institution to tell us about the needs of Savannah
State; we should have seen what was needed long ago.

Perhaps in looking for something to do we cannot see what's
to be done. Here are some things that would greatly improve our
campus.

Each organization could take it upon itself to keep our campus
free of litter by volunteering to keep the campus clean one week
at a time. During this week this organization could pick up paper,
post non-lltter signs and anything else that would make students
try to keep the campus clean.

There is the old college park that could be revived by planting
flowers and cleaning Ihe grounds and repairing the dock.

There is the old fish pond that could be cleaned out and used
as a shrine for some organization.

And there is the liberty bell, though it is very seldom used,
that could be cleaned out and flowers could be planted around it
lo make it more attractive. And perhaps in the near future it will
be used.

These are a few of the many things that could be fixed up
around our campus. Not only would the repairing of these few
things on our campus make it more beautiful but it would also
revive that old Schoollsm that has been lost for so long. So let's
make the next four weeks "The Revival of Schoollsm" month.

Dear Sir:

I have written a spiritual let-

Thank you for your kind con-
sideration.

Sclf-centLTcdmss is no novelty on the American campus. When
Ihc United States National Student .'\ssociat ion's 1947 Constitutional

for anvthiiK; a ma.iorily were willing to work or sacrifice to bring
about.

The Association now has a decade of experience in trying to
secure greater commitment and more realistic programming directed
toward the realization of these goals. The results can best be
described as encouraging but inadequate. January, 1958. finds on
going programs, developed channels of communication, idealistic
plans for Implementation in a new year. Whether they will be
accompUshd or not depends more on you than on us.

\Vc can and have developed programming kits and working
papers to provide a basis for and to assist eampus efforts to imple-
ment llie report of President Eisenhower's Committee on Education
llejond the High School. Only you can hold the discussions and
plan the efforts necessary to help evaluate lurrieula and teaching
methods, raise faculty salaries and eliminate unnecessary clerical
loads, arouse public interest in and support for higher education,
advance student responsibility for self-learning and preserve indi-
viduality on expanding campuses.

Tlic International Commission can report on the threat to
academic freedom and human dignity in South African education-
It Is your protests which hearten those who oppose these measures
the gives and government grounds for pause. At home, the impetus
for seminars to consider the problems of desegregation on campus
or small conferences to evaluate intergroup relations and the
selection of social group members on the basis of personal worth
and character must come from the campus perhaps in response
to experiences and material the Association can provide but created
and run by those most directly effected.

Our horizon must expand beyond the campus level whether
local, regional, national or international to include the entire scope
of higher education as a minimum We passed a series of resolutions
at the 10th Congress last Augst outlining a definite program of
assistance to education for the Association to support by legislative
activity and publicity. The National Executive Committee and Stafi
are fulfilling the mandates, but how effective this will be depends
largely on whether individual campuses contact their legislators
on the same measures.

Unfortunately, rising enrollments, racial and religious prejudice,
currlcular inadequacies, proposals for educational legislation, and
tlie confusion of next year's freshmen as to why they came to
college and what they should seek will not wait can we?

Dear God.

Thank You for Your unspeak-
able gift. It was the most pre-
cious, most meaningful and most
useful gift that I have ever re-
ceived.

I say precious, for only would
such a holy gift be given through
an eternal love as Yours. Mean-
ingful, because it is pre-eminent
of all Thy miracles . . in that
Thou would humiliate Thy Spirit
in the form and place of man.
Useful, for if properly used, it
can afford peace, and goodwill,
and a pattern to live by.

Not only was Your gift super-
lative to all others, but it came
at the most unique time of the
year, before the beginning of a
new journey. At such a time,
when I am confused, discour-
aged, and uncertain from passed
days, I can find in Your gift a
guiding light.

I must not think for a selfish
moment, that this wonderful
gift was given to me alone, for
the gift was a Savior. Jesus
Christ who will bring peace and
eternal life to all who will accept
Him.

I pray that the whole world
will graciously receive Thy gift,
and give thanks unto Thee.

Yours to perpetuate,
Drucllla Moore

Dear Mr. Editor:

I would like to call your atten-
tion to the fact that our student
newspaper (The Tiger's Roar)
has not been carrying all the
news about our school organiza-
tions and extra-curricular activi-
ties here at Savannah State Col-
lege; therefore, we the students
are very much disturbed.

We enjoy very much reading
news about other schools but
would be very happy if more of
our own news were published in
order to give each individual an
opportunity to know what is go-
ing on within the walls of our
college and its organizations so
that the students in years to
come may be able to get a broad
picture of our college life after
we are gone.

Please look into this matter
and let us make our paper one
of the best ever published at
Savannah State College.

Yours truly,
Leon Coverson

He further stated that many
men live for a long time but
never accomplish anything,

"Your time should be well
spent and something should be
accomplished." Reverend Patter-
son stated. The students of to-
day are the doctors, lawyers and
ministers of tomorrow.

The program was further
highlighted by a duet, sung by
two members of the fraternity,
the Greek Medley and the Ome-

To all Ihrid miniled larihs
Have yoii ever looked at your
clothes wardrobe and asked
yourself "why doesn't It ever
grow? Why docs It cost so much
to liiake It gi'ow'.'"

Replenishing your wardrobe
can be done quickly, efficiently
and tor very little cost with just
a little Initiative on your part.
Sewing Is the answer to that
ever-lingering "what am I lo
wear" qviestlon.

This goes for beginners loo!
All you need to start Is a piece
of fabric, a "simple to make
pattern", needle, thread, etc.,
and a little will power. It Us an
advantage to sew at this .season
of the year for most of us can
make a cute skirt fi'om one yard
of 5-1" fabric.

For the beginner I would sug-
gest a simple skirt pattern with
as few pattern pieces as possible.
Study and follow the directions
carefully and with a little tutor-
ing from a more advanced per-
son, you will have begun to In-
crease that wardrobe.

To llKise who have more expe-
rlrnce why not try a jumper
sheath and set It oft with a pret-
ty scarf or eutc scatter pins.
You'll be surprised at the attrac-
tive results.

You will be able to get winter
fabrics at vei'y reasonable prices
so why not get handy with a
needle and lead that "I made It
myself" fashion parade.

A one-inch blanket of snow turned the City of Savannah into
a winter wonderland on February 13. The fh-st snowfall since 1899
was ushered in by a skidding mercury that plummeted to 13 degrees.

The only thing hot on this day was the temper of the residents
as they struggled with broken water lines, frozen autos. and cold feet.

Sleet and ice added to the chilly phenomenon. Ice adorned the
yards in breathtakingly beautiful configurations as a result of fau-
cets and sprays left open the night before the "Great Snow."

Officially, the Weather Bureau measured the snow at one inch.
But there was enough to build snowmen and roll snowballs in many
parts of the city, including the campus.

The snow is reported to have begun falling around 2 a. m,, and
those who were fortunate enough to have seen it falling said that
the flurry was beautiful.

Shouts of delight were heard as usually sleepy-headed young-
sters discovered the winter wonderland filled with fluffy white
frosting on trees, houses, and lawns. Telephones everywhere began
ringing bright and early, with questions to friends such as "Am I
seeing things?"; to the Weather Bureau, "How long has it been
since we had a similar snow?"

The school officials were very sympathetic with the students
who preferred to remain at home and build snowmen, but they
scheduled no holiday and could find no reasons for legimately clos-
ing the schools.

Enthusiasts, both young and not so young, really had a fling in
the snow. Snowmen were fashioned, snowball fights staged, and
even a few sleds were unearthed from storage, dusted off and taken
outside for rides.

The beauty of our campus was enhanced by the blanket of snow
on the moss-hung trees. There was no problem in getting the stu-
dents out of the dormitory, and many missed breakfast to enjoy the
snow. Camera bugs were at work, too. Snaps were taken of snow-
men and their builders, and believe it or not. one or two faculty
members were caught in the rush.

College Playhouse Presents
'Pride And Prejudi

The play dealt with the lives
of an unsophisticated English
family of moderate means. The
action revolved around the Ben-
net family with their five daugh-
ters: Lydia, played by Purcell
Grant; Jane. Helen Williams:
Catherine, Jane Morgan; Mary.
Pearlie Mae Haynes, and Eliza-
beth, Kay Frances Stripling

The conflict occurs when Mrs.
Bennet. played by Dorothy Davis,
tries to marry each of her
daughters, who have little for-
tune, to wealthy young men. Mr.
Bennet, played by Willie Hamil-
ton, was the quiet, sedate father
who sat back quite contentedly.

The household regained some
of its calm when two of the girls
finally become engaged and one
is married.

The College Playhouse is un-
der the direction of John B.
Clemmons. chairman of the De-
partment of Mathematics and
Physics.

The cast also included Al-
phonso Arnold, senior chemistry
major, who played Hill; Yvonne
O. Hooks, junior English major,
who portrayed Lady Lucas; Lillie

this article won't offend anyone,
but I am Inclined to believe that
there Is a slight bit of Inade-
quacy within our Student Coun-
cil or it may be that we are
reluctant to take a firm stand
for finer and better faellltles. If
there Is some reluctance, I can't
s(!em to tlilnk of any reason for
It. There will be no retribution
for expresslnn your views on tlie
adequacy of this colle(;e. Even
If there is some form of retribu-
tion, how and to what extent
could it be enacted? What kind
of Institution could this be, that
it would prevent students from
speaking openly on matters sucli
as the ones that confront us at
present?

I will admit that wo have a
very attractive campus, and I
think we have a very qualified
faculty, but what good Is a quali-
fied faculty when the Institu-
tion does not have the essential
eq\ilpinent with which to give
proper Instruction. Students,
belii've me. If we are to alter
the situation we must take a
firm stand and demand the Im-
portant equipment we need. I
am not saying that we should be
belligerent about this matter: we
have proper representation from
our respective classes to the
Student Council; we should work
througii the Student Council to
solve tlie problem that confronts
us. After all the Student Coun-
cil Is mainly concerned with
solving ov trying to solve student
problems. Just in case you are
not aware of the present situa-
tion. I hope this article awakens
you.

JHE PEHISCOPE

By Koht. Tlndal

The Periscope shall be con-
cerned with primarily local and
national news. Empha.sls has
been greatly motivated In the
Improvement of our educational
.system .since the launching ot
the satellites. At present, there
Is legislation pending before
Congress which Is of valuble
concern to students, parents, and
educators.

The Periscope would like to
give some Information as to the
nature and concern of the pro-
posed bills.

The Kisenhower-Ffdsom Pro-
gram would provide 10.000
scholarships a year for expan-
sion of undergraduate study, to
be administered by the states;
average grant, $750; no restric-
tion on course of study. Also
grants for expansion of graduate
.schools up to .$125,000 a year
tor an institution; a university
could elect an alternate grant of
$50n for each graduate fellow,
with a preference for those In-
terested in teaching in higher
education. This bill would also
provide $150 million for the
states to expand and Improve
science and mathematical In-
struction in public secondary
schools.

The Periscope would like to
focus the recent violence In the
New York school system, which
many Southerners have attrib-
uted to racial integration in the
schools. A noted Southern news-
paperman went to New York to
.study the situation and deter-
mine whether or not this was
the case. His finding: that al-
though racial Integration exists
in New York, the violence was
caused by social and economic
conditions. Why were so many
Negroes Involved in these cases
of violence? Because of the
economic and social conditions
under which they live, caused
by discrimination against them
as one of the minority groups in
the sprawling "metropolitan
melting pot,"

The expulsion of Mlnniejean
Brown from the Little Rock
School system comes as no sur-
prise The die-hard .segregra-
tlonists have been bellowing loud
and long ever since she and the
other Negro students entered
Central High, Wonder how it
feels to defeat an innocent child
who strives only to attain what
our Constitution guarantees.
What is the meaning of Equality,
Freedom, and Democracy?

Motes From the Editor

Dear Students;

Recently I wrote an editorial
concerning the state of our
campus. As of yet I have seen
only one organization attempt
to do anything about our
campus. Is this the way for a
college campus to react to situa-
tions on the campus? As a mat-
ter of fact I dare you to do some-
thing.

This Is your paper! The news
that appears in tthis paper Is
made by you. Before I took the
job of editor I was determined
to edit this paper for you ithe
students of Savannah State Col-
lege i Last issue I received two
letters from students. This is
what I want, I want you to
send comments, ideas and criti-
cisms concerning your news-
paper.

There is one thing you must
:<now; that whether you know It
or not this is a newspaper and
though we are under the au-
spices of the College we are al-
lowed to print anything as long
as it is within the ethical codes
of the newspaper. This is a chal-
lenge to you, I dare you
Sincerely yours,

THE EDITOR,

Is I ho Ki |)iil>licaii Party Ki si)<ni^il)le
For IIh' Ciirronl Koccssion?

By Ted Pollen

Recently the attention of every thinking American has been
directed to the state of our national budget and how it affects our
standards of living.

The Department of Labor has reported that approximately
5 000.000 persons are presently unemployed. This constitutes about
6'-. per cent of our population Such a percentage of unemployment
can be quite alarming in our present economic structure, and has
created a recession that is a bit more than "mild."

The big question that seems to be in everyone's mind is "Is the
Republican Party responsible for the current recession?"

We must, first of all. examine the causes and nature of a reces-
sion. There arc perhaps three maior cycles through which a re-
cession might pass. Tlie first cycle might be indicated by a period
of prosperity and rising prices, which is more prevalent today be-
cause of our extended practice of installment buying. The second
stage is the inevitable overproduction of goods and commodities
which am not immediately consumed by the public. Therefore, the
rumors of excess stocks and heavy losses spread a contagion of cau-
tion, doubt, and pessimism. Thus the crisis enters the third or
crisis stage; prices fall to a low level; a general liquidation occurs
on ihe stock market; and employers lower wages and discharge
workers.

This condition exists for a few months, and if unchecked, will
result in "depression."

The United States has undergone at least ten periods of depres-
sion or panic, several of which cannot be attributed to any political
regime, because during these periods, the political parties, proper,
did not exist.

No one can truthfully say that any particular party. Repub-
lican or Democrat, lias ever created a recession through faulty leg-
islative acts. This, liowever. has been tlie accusation of the Demo-
crats in recent years, and they have used for example the admin-
istration of Herbert Hoover.

It is generally accepted when reference is made to the Demo-
cratic Party as the "war party." and the Republicans as the "de-
pression party." Now then, with some knowledge of economic cycles,
we must understand that wars create our greatest amount of eco-
nomic activity The public enjoys a sudden spurt of prosperity in
which a false standard of living is gratifyingly consumed.

It has been the misfortune of the Republican Party to be asso-
ciated witli our most recent recessions, but isn't it also true that
the Democrats have always been closely related to tlie causes of re-
cessions.

We believe that each era of inflation, recession, and depression
is merely a product of our bipartisan government. .\s for this cur-
rent reiessiiin? Heaven knows who is responsible!

Dear Miss Moore:

Your spiritual letter (publish-
ed in the last issue) has proved
to the older generation that the
modern generation has not lost
its spiritual values. It is what I
consider a perfect example of
piety which is so necessary for
our time. We need more of this
kind of thing.

Sincerely your.

THE EDITOR.

Dear Mr. Coverson:

Your letter has proven to us
that the students of Savannah
State College are interested in
their newspaper. It is true that
our paper does print news from
other colleges, and in the past
organizational news has been
limited

But can this solely be attrib-
uted to the staff of your news-
paper? I say no, because your
newspaper has a small working
staff and cannot be expected to
cover everything. If I'm not
mistaken every organization has
a reporter. It is this reporter's
job to report the news. If these
persons have been doing their
job. I am not aware of it. If I
get the news we will print it.

As you know this is your paper.
The policy of this paper is to
print- We can run a newspaper
but not when students do not
write the news.

THE EDITOR.

"Did we all know about the
knocking over of the cookie ma-
chine in the College Center? I
tiiink we should have more of
what happens wrong on our
campus. Let some of us make
Alpha Kappa Mu or give a big
sum of money to some organiza-
tion. That would be all over the
paper.

"Do we criticize the students
for putting on their coats before
we finish singing the Alma
Mater? If we do, then no one
hears us. Why not print it?"
William Pompey "Yes. I think
the paper is very essential and
carries a variety of news, but it
could be larger. The people
working on it do good work. I
favor it being like it is, but about
three papers more would make
it a little more appropriate for a
college paper."

THE TIGERS ROAR FORUAI
A COLUMN OF OPIMON

QUESTION: Do you think the
College newspaper supplies us
with enough news about our
campus? Interviewer: Ellena
Lynette Thomas.

Willie Mae Julian "Yes It
seems to me that everything that
happens which is important is
discussed in the paper- The
students write the articles and
it shows their ability and co-
operation."

Thurnell Johnson "I think
that the editor prints exactly
what goes on. Everything that
is printed is exactly what hap-
pened and nothing else. When
we have more things going on,
I am sure the editor and his
staff will cover them."

Pauline Smith "No. I don't
really think the paper has
enough information about the
different activities on the
campus."

Melba Miles "Yes, it seems to
give information on the most
important happenings on the
campus. Why should there be
any 'big eyes' on a basketball
game if we lost?"

Gladys White "The paper
doesn't carry enough factual in-
formation concerning the impor-
tant events that occur on our
campus from time to time. I
really feel that the paper is too
limited and should be expanded
with a broader concept of what's
happening on the campus,"

Lois Parrish "I think the edi-
tors do a good job of covering
the news on the campus. If any-
one doesn't find enough events
written up in the paper, that's
because there isn't that much
happening on the campus"

Theresa Grant "No, the paper
does not supply us with enough
news about our campus."

Richard Fitzgerald "No. I
don't know why. but it seems our
paper doesn't have enough criti-
cism. All we put in the paper
are the good things. It seems
to me our paper should carry
articles to help the students.

Oi\ CatU'l Teaching

By Eliata Brown

"Student teaching has been a
very rich experience and has
given me much that could not
have been learned otherwise."
stated Robert Merritt, senior
English major, in an interview
here last week.

The field of journalism is the
area of Merritt's interest. "But
I think there is niuch to be done
yet in the teaching profession."
he stated.

"There is a great need for Eng-
lish teachers, especially in Sa-
vannah." Merritt continued. "I
feel that the present world sit-
uation is somewhat putting Eng-

Should Studenl Pii
Censored By Tlie

By Carl H. Roberts

Freedom of the press is one
of the basic freedoms which
members of a democratic so-
ciety are entitled to. This free-
dom does not in any way give
the press the right to make
statements that are untrue and
injurious to the integrity of citi-
zens, but does carry with it the
right to take a stand on con-
troversial issues and. in cases
where evidence has been gath-
ered which reflects favorably
on the character of public offi-
cials, the right to reveal such
evidence to the public.

If such an essential freedom
is to be perpetuated, it must be
instilled and nurtured in the
minds of the future leaders of
the nation. Any attempt on the
part of faculty members to pre-
vent the publication of news
written or gathered by students
is contrary to the ideals and
principles of our democratic so-
ciety and harmful to the devel-

l)lieali<Mis He
Kaeidlv?

opmeat of our liiUirt' leaders.
For such censorship ciiii only in-
dicate the hypocrisy of (hose
who preach domocracy hut who
do not practice the art.

It is the job of students who
are engaged in various student
publications activities to judge
the collective views and opinions
of the student body and to make
known such views, and to pub-
lish their personal views on mat-
tors without fear of censorship
of faculty members. Only In
this way will they be able to de-
velop their Ideas without fear
that they will be suppressed by
an indignant faculty member
whose personal point of view
does not coincide with that of
the students.

Unless a code exists by which
the students have agreed to
abitle and which states that cer-
tain news stories arc not to be
published, any suppression of a
story by a faculty member Is
an arbitrary judgment.

New York. 1( you are a col-
lege or high school graduate the
chances are that you are a movto
fan. according to the Opinion
Research Corporation of Prince-
ton. New Jersey.

It made a survey in every state
of the Union last June and July
and couAcs up with these figures:

Of those 20 years and older
who attended movies at least
once a week. coUoro educated
persons made up 21', of tlie au-
dience, and high school grud-
uates comprised 37' ;. Those wlio
did not complete high school
nuuibered 23'.-. The 8th gradeis
were only 10':;. of the audience.

Another Indication of the fa-
vorable status of the movies In
the public mind Is found In the
statistics covering Income groups.
The $7,000 per yt^ar and over
made up I3'r of the audiences;
$5,000 to $0,99!>. 20' ,., and the
$3,000 to $4.t)i)9 Kioup predomi-
nates with 27';.. Under $3,000 is
15',,..

The importance of younger
people In the vast motion picture
audience was emphasized dra-
matically in the survey figures.

It is, of course, to be expected
that students are not to utilize
the various publications to en-
gage In personal attacks on fac-
ulty members as Individuals, but
on matters that are of Interest
to the students or which In any
way affect their welfare, It Is
the duty of the stuff to voice
their approval or tllsappi-oval.

Such arc the rights and privi-
leges which (Iciiiocracy grants to
the individuals. Such rights are
precious, therefore let no one
faculty members, thoNe with
vested liilerests, or others In-
fringe upon them.

gives hl.s reason for writing tlie
book. "This volinne seeks to
Identity and describe those
phases of life that won for the
ante-bellum South the reputa-
tion of belnfi a land of violence.

but also with those varied con-

dency."

Ai;aiusl a baekf^round of vlo-
lenee and turmoil Southern lead-
ers throii^lKuil the Soulh moii
valor Ml nillhant serviee and
Mils was to Irl^Ker ()fr an almost
fanalie attitude of supreme pow-
er of military serviee. In the
War of Urz the Souths fiKhtint;
reputation ni a d e substantial
headway. The promolei-s for Ihe
niosl pari were Southerners.
Likewise Ihe tVlexiean War j;ave
the Southerner an ()|)port unity
to display his gallantry in battle
and to advance his eeununile and
political interests. These two in-
cidents in Southern history may
have been the Kt^nt'sls of the vlo-
lenre that was to follow.

The men of the Soutli at this
time engaged in personal war-
fare. It became more or less a
sport and an every day occur-
ance throughout the country
side.

The presence of slnvcry hard-
ened the strength of the South,
With Ideas of his mother land,
the English pioneer settled in
the South with the Idea of es-
tablishing an aristocracy. With
large tracts of land, he became
a large plantation owner with a
considerable amount of slaves.
Two things happened which
strengthened the militant force
of the South. To protect the so-
called aristocracy from the Ne-
gro slaves strong patrols were
set up to police the area. From
early childhood the presence of
Negro slaves gave the slave own-
er's children an opportunity to
become belligerent at an early
age.

When the North and some of
the better thinking people of the
South sorted to end slavery, the
Southerner clamped down even
harder on military forces One
fact, the reviewer thinks, should
be brought out here is that with

Ihe presence of Ne(,'ro slavery in
the Soulh. the slave owners,
their children and even the low-
est elas.s of whites thouKht them-
Helve better and of a superior
race.

The South has been belliger-
ent In almost every aspect of life
and the lack of education In this
vast wlldcrncHs may have very
well been the reason for the
militant attitude the South held.
Free public schools In the South
developed very .slowly and failed
utterly to exercise any consider-
able influence over manners and

pendence, u Hti-on(^ ai'lstocratlc

TV Review

Itcvicwer: Kay l-'rances Stripling
Have you ever wondered at
what point an occupation ceased
lo be fulfillment of an ambition
and became an obsession?

In "Point of No Return." a
television drama adapted from
Marc|uard"s novel. Charlton Hes-
ton. as handsome, ambitious
Charlie Gray, portrays the role

of a young man who falls In
love with a wealthy girl and is
denied her hand because of his
financial .standing.

In revenge, he works and
studies diligently, establishes a
family, and finally finds him-
self competing for vice-presi-
dency of a prosperous banking
firm. A return to his old home
brings memories of his younger
days and brings him face to face
with the scene and object of his
lost love.

The entire cast contributed to
an excellent, suspenseful presen-
tation. The cast included Hope
Lang. Katherine Bard, Walter
Abel, and John Williams. The
dialogue was forceful and the
photographic effects were good,

Hope Lang gave an excellent
performance as the young lost
love of Charlie Gray a girl en-
tirely dominated by her wealthy
father. Throughout the story
she portrays a personality torn
between selt-gratlflcatlon and
paternal subjection. The pro-
duction was filled with human
interest.

"Point of No Return" was a
CBS Playhouse Ninety produc-
tion, adapted for television by
Frank Gilroy and directed by
Franklin Shaffeur.

Boegner. Marc. The Prayer of
the Church Universal. These are
singularly beautiful meditations
on our Lord's Prayer the tie
that binds Christians of every
denomination, of every tongue,
and of every nation the prayer
of the Church Universal. The
meditations upon each passage
show the thinking of a man who
has prayerfully considered the
deepest meaning of the prayer.
Here is a doorway to a richer
experience every time the Lord's
Prayer is said.

Davis. John Trevor Lord of
All. These twelve sermons pre-
sent with persuasive power the
claims and the gifts of the liv-
ing Christ the desire of Christ
for the unstinted allegiance of
His followers, and the freely
given rewards which Christ be-
stows on those who surrender to
Him completely. The author is
speaking to people who already
consider themselves Christians.
They go to church on Sunday.
They are generous when the col-
lection plate is passed. But, too
often, they forget Christ in their
business dealings on Monday and
in their search for pleasure on
Tuesday. To these Christians
Dr, Davies says, "Christ does not
want our worship one day in
seven. He will have all or none."

\V1iy >ot Go Into
Jourualisiu?

By Elzata Brown

Job opportunities in the field
of journalism are open today to
all persons with capability and
interest.

If you were to take time out
to compare the earlier related
opportunities with those of to-
day, you would be astonished
and amazed over the great in-
crease.

Journalism may include edit-
ing and other newspaper jobs
and the writing of columns, or
other special features either for
newspapers or magazines. Re-
poring leads directly into and
provides the solid basis for most
of these activities.

Editing offers opportunities in
the management of magazines.
Publishing houses also need the
services of a variety of editors.
The editor has a great responsl?
bility in directing the work of
many reporters; therefore, he
should be a past master of the
reporter's art.

There is a growing field of op-
portunity for individuals whu
prefer publicity and public rela-
tions work. Colleges, commer-
cial houses, states, the federal
government, railroads, banks,
and organizations have learned
the value of professional inter-
pretation of their activities and
aims.

Now is the chance for you who
have hoped and wished for years
to become a free-lance writer. If
you were to dig down in past
history, you would find that a
large proportion of the success-
ful authors of today have ac-
quired their basic training as
newspaper reporters The varied
experience and the constant use
of succint language form an ex-
celent basis for literary achieve-
ment. Many writers build a sub-
stantial income by serving as
local or traveling correspondents
for trade magazines.

The young reporter frequently
yearns to be a columnist. And
there is no reason why he
should not achieve his goal if
he has the ability. Most papers
subscribe to a few syndicated
columns of famous individuals;
therefore, the field is narrow and
highly competitive. Neverthe-
less, columns are today brewing
in the minds of young reporters
which will make the syndicate
tomorrow through sheer novel-
ty and reader-appeal- Fortun-
ately, the syndicates do not have
an absolute corner of the col-
umn market.

well prepared and agree in ad-
vance on the aspects of the topic
to be discussed." Dr. Lloyd said.

The program is in its sixth
consecutive year and has never
missed a broadcast, he stated.
Radio Station WSAV has a po-
tential audience of one million
listeners, and the Roundtable is
considered one of the station's
outstanding features. Dr Lloyd
added.

The February Roundtable dis-
cussion was centered around the
subject. "Negro History as a
Factor in Internationalism," and
featured Dr. Calvin L Kiah.
chairman of the Department of
Education, and Dr. Elmer Dean,
chairman of the Department of
Social Sciences. President W, K
Payne gave introductory remarks
which took note of the program's
service to the community.

Dr. Lloyd concluded. "Person-
ally, I think that although it is
often difficult to organize
the program, it is an excellent
medium of enlightenment. The
Roundtable has been a very ef-
fective phase of Savannah State
College's adult education ef-
fort."

Ladies, take a look with me at
the effective measures of the
""best dressed look."

For that "Feminine Touch."
for that most talked about out-
fit, note the following things;

1 It's not how many outfits
you have; It's how you wear
them.

2. The popular suggestion for
the girl with the budget is a
plain two-piece outfit chosen to
coordinate with a checked shh-t
and jacket. By far you have six
outfits within the two.

3. The scarf, flower, necklace
and the right shoes with a spark
of color can do wonders to that
outfit.

4. The knowing where to wear
what is the prize knowledge of
any best-dressed woman.

5. Ladies, in taking a look at
your personal wardrobe don't
forget how important it is to be
well-groomed.

The Perfect Compliment ladies
is "Self-Approval"

Ladies take a sincere look at
your hair-do. The best dressed
look is not complete without the
million dollar hair-do. well in
place.

Chose the perfect style! One
that will accept the lovelier you.

It is a must to keep your hair
well-groomed at all times.

Morrioge

By Erma Marie Lee

There used to be a common
belief that jobs were the pre-
vailing gap between careers and
marriage. Some people think
that if a girl should marry she
must give up her business life
and adopt the Idea of being n
mother, and a wife only.

In our modern society things
have changed. A woman now
spends two-thirds of her time
working, and the remaining por-
tion of her time being a nuiture
woman and a mature wife.

There are many reasons why
married women work. The finan-
cial reason, of course. Is one of
the greatest reasons. Most woni-
en think that a pay check Is a
mighty good thing.

A "neulywod" may rnnlinue In
work briMUM- she anil her hus-
band lUM'd the nuiiu-y ior Ihcir
new home, or living rvpniscs. .A
young uilV may lake a juh hv-
cause in these days the high
cost of living may not allow them
to live comfortably. An older
woman may want lu save money
for her children's t-ollege edu-
cation.

A girl may work because .she
enjoys her job. or she may have
responsibilities that will not al-
low her to remain at home all
day "playing cards." Another
may have adequate training and
does not want It to go to waste,
There are a great number of
women, too, who feel that they
must help .support their children,
or they might have the full re-
sponsibilities of supporting their
children Then there arc other
women who will go back to work
when their children have reach-
ed the age where they no longer
need constant care and guidance
from their mothers.

Whatever her reason may he
for working, the married girl has
the same responsibilities oT Iut
job as the single girl. In addi-
tion, she, at time.s, has to work
harder than the single girl, to
prove tu her employer that she is
capable of doing her job well,
and that she intends to stay on
the job.

In combining marriage with
your career It calls for a little
self-intuition. You need to be
strong physically as well as men-
tally. You need to be able to
both jobs well. You need have an
an understanding husband. It is
also wise to know if your job will
or will not affect your marriage.
And last but not least, can you
undertake the job of being a lov-
ing wife, a competent mother,
and a good businesswoman?

T am not old-fashioned enough
to believe that a pay check i.s
more important to men than a
successful marriage.

Thv Intramural Pnpgram

By J, Gampbell, Jr.

Organized last year under the able guidance and direction of
Coach Richard Washington, the intramural sports program Is prov-
ing to be one of the most satisfying extra-curricular activities for
students who do not participate In varsity sports. The need for such
a program v/as long In evidence and judging by attendance and
group participation, the current program provides a healthful out-
let for participants and spectators.

In the Intramural program as witnes.sed by the current basket-
ball race, there Is present an element which Is entirely lacking In
varsity games the presence of two cheering sections. At a varsity
game If the home team is losing (which everyone will agree hap-
pened too often this year> the entire gymnasium Is silent Not so
In the Intramural-s for every team has its loyal rooters who don't
hesitate to cheer.

Anyone who has not seen one of the intramural games this
winter has certainly mi.s.sed a pleasant surprise, for much of the
comic is prevalent, and friendly group rivalry generates an excessive
amount of excitement. Every team has at least one player whose
sense of balance and grace seem to vanish the instant he hits the
floor. After a day of study, the fans find it refreshing to witness
these players, v/ho when attempting shots, frequently flaunt the
laws of gravity But Sir Isaac need not fear, for eventually they
come dov/n to earth, or in this case the floor.

According to Coach Washington, the current program is prin-
cipally a Wmter Quarter one, with most teams participating only in
basketball. A good, solid, year-round program with the addition of
Softball in the spring and perhaps touch football during the fall
would be the goal desired. The teams which are currently taking
part in the basketball program could help towards the realization
of this goal, if they would field teams and participate with the zeal
they have shown in the basketball program.

Tor (FrainiiKiliral IJsa<>;r?

By Kay F. Stripling

"i th()ii|;li(, this was a History cliias, not an English class,"
Phi'nses similar to tliis one have been uttered over and over again
by cotl('|.'.e students. Students rebul'l' the Idea of having their papers
(U'adi'd on the basis oT grammar and lorin.

A student's al)illty to achieve elliclency In any subject Is based
on his lending and certahily his writing al)iliti(?s. The (college cur-
riculum includes a muitltude (tf subject matter and English is
merely one oT such. In English classes are taught the runtianientnls
of cuuipi'-'^II'lon, Included in this aim is tlie ability to express one's
self In language that is clear, iiicclse, and accurate, wliether writ-
ten or oi'ul.

Is tills instruction and practice to stop In English classes?

ThrouiOiout all courses thei'c Is a continuous need i'or good
composition, in science classes students must report their observa-
tions and experiments concisely. Such reporting necessitates u large
vocabulary, an understanding of the principles of modification and
.skills In organizing ideas In a layout coherent pattern. Names and
dates arc imijortant in history and the incoriect spelling of a pei-
.son's name or a iilace wlli jiroduce a shifting of thoughts. Regard-
less of the suljject matter, langiuigc is the medium of communica-
tion. II nuiy even be considered the basis of creative thouglit. for
iiow can we reason about scii-ntiflc mathematical or historical con-
cepts without a vocabulary of adcqimte verbal and non-verbal sym-
bols. Througli written rejiorts we clarify and refine our concepts
and abstractions.

The Instructor has a responsibility of correcting and grading
such written reports. How should he grade? Should he grade on
the basis of content or form and grammar? The structure of o
composition includes spelling, subject-verb agreement, punctuation
and other factors. Some st\idents seem to feel that they shnvild not
be penalized fur faulty composition In classes other than English.
but as long as grammatical errors go unpenalized students will
continue to ignore correct composition. Through penalizing stu-
dents for grammatical errors, teachers help tlicm to be more ob-
servant and concerned with correct composition and consequently
better papers will be produced.

Merely because tlie development of langiuige and reading skills
In our schools and colleges is largely the responsibility of English
teachers is no excuse for neglect In other courses. Any effort to
improve learning in science. n\athcmatics. or social science depends
first of all on how well English fundamentals are learned and prac-
ticed. Students m\ist continue to read and write well.

Our success after graduation depends largely on tlie ability to
write well. For example, a student learned in science or arts may
write an application for a job. If the letter is poorly written, his
chances arc few for obtaining the position.

It is both necessary and beneficial that good English fvmda-
mentals be Integrated into the total curriculum, and teachers can
help a great deal by constantly checking the students through
penalizing faulty grammatical construction.

President's Message

SCHOLARSHIP BEYOND THE IVY

Within a few days many young men and women will be partici-
pating In commencement exercises. When they receive the bache-
lors degree they will realize one of their most cherished ambitions.
But even as they receive their diplomas, the world will have changed.
No candidate for graduation this year will leave college to enter the
.same world from which he came when he entered as a freshman.
Both the students and the world have been making rapid changes.

During the four years in college many have thought of scholar-
ship primarily in terms of grades which were designated by the first
two letters of the alphabet. In the last copies of the Dean's List
and the honor roll posted for seniors, it is thought by many that
the importance and significance of scholarship have come to an
end. Some students whose grades were farther down the alphabet
boasted that no one after graduation would be interested in the
grades which students made in college since the jobs which students
would enter after college would not require any special quality of
.scholarship. To a group that looked forward to careers where push-
buttons predominated their activity, the rea.sonlng appeared sound.

The fallaciousness of this concept has been brought to our
attention In many and various ways. The future of American de-
mocracy, our Ideals, and our position in the world community is
intimately linked with scholarship of a high order. Grave responsi-
bilities are faced by higher education in developing young men and
young women who are able to solve contemporary and emerging
problems of the modern world. The criticisms and hysteria which
have been centered about America's shortages in mathematics and
the phy.sical sciences represent only one aspect of the scene. The
shortages clustered about problems in juvenile crime, human rela-
tions, community development, and international relations are
equally marked and challenging. The explorations of outer space
cannot go far unless the problems arising in a large number of
other areas receive commensurate research and study. Scholarship
of the undergraduate college and the university will need to be
extended to industry, society, economic life, and international rela-
tions at all levels. Many of the same techniques and principles
employed by students in college must be used to attack the issues
of today.

America is fast reaching the point where scholarship is being
appreciated and rewarded in terms of the standards prevailing in
other aspects of American life. Recent discoveries now indicate that
Improvements in all aspects of our culture can go forward to un-
limited extents. Each generation of scholars from the colleges and
universities will be expected to work on the frontiers in the areas
where they have demonstrated their scholarship. It is through the
continuation of the habits of scliolarship that leadership in the
many facets of our culture will be provided. Commencement on the
college campus can no longer mean the cessation of study and
scientific methods of investigation. The world into which the
scholars go today will accept with appreciation and generously re-
ward tho.se who continue their high scholarship beyond the Ivy
Walls.

THE EDITOR'S
DESK

ON JUSTICE One character-
istic of our wonderful country is
its use of the courts of law. If
a man is arrested and kept over
twenty-four hours in jail he can
rely on the writ of habeas corpus
ad subjiciendum to see if he is
lawfully held. This is one of the
many laws to protect the indi-
vidual from unfair practices by
authority.

On our campus a kind of court
is set up to pass judgment on
those individuals who have
broken the laws of our campus.
When individuals are punished
without going before this court
it is by natural law unfair. It
is true that an individual should
not put himself into a situation
that is questionable, but the
main issue here is that he has
the right to appear before the
standard committee before be-
ing sent home.

To by-pass this committee is
an infringement of personal
freedom. "Guilty or not guilty"
is their job to pronounce.

ON STREETS The condition
of our streets on campus has
improved since President Payne
made his statement on the con-
dition of the streets and what
they can do to cars. Tills proves
that our college can be improved.

ON RESPECT Students still
cannot see the disrespect they
give to their school when they
leave assembly before the Alma
Mater is completed. We are for-
getting respect.

NO ANSWERING one has an-
swered tlie editorial "SSC The
Inadequate" written by Kenneth
B. Alexander (March issue of
the Tiger's Roar). It seems a.s
if no one will come to the aid
of his school. TUFF ain't it (ht-
erally meaning pathetic).

LAMENTATION

By Carl Faison

When I am depressed by my

present state of confusion.
I think back to those golden

days of my youth.
My green life was carefree and

ran freely as a stream
Whose course had been charted

by time.
Each hour was but a minute, and

each day was but an hour.

Now that which was white has
become a subtle grey

As it moves toward tliat inevi-
table black

Life, which was once crystal, has
become muddied.

Beauty is no more

Keats and Shelley have become
mere remnants

In the recess of a cluttered mind.

Each breath I breathe is in-
creasing fear.

And my burdens are heaped
upon me

Like the rays of the noonday

sun.
I pray to my Maker that I be

made strong
So that I may again know the

peace that
Was mine in the days of gold.

It has observed that the .stu-
dents here on the campus do
not support the student govern-
ment as they should. Several
students were asked their opin-
ion as to the rea.son for the non-
Intercst and support.

James E, Johnson "As long
as the situation doesn't directly
concern the Individual student,
they Just dont care."

Jaunlta Carter "The students
wouldn't know they had a Stu-
dent (Jouncll If they were not in-
formed because the members of
the- Council do not function as
they should."

Margaret Burney "The stu-
dents do not seem to be Inter-
ested in how our student gov-
ernment functions; therefore
they do not support It."

Josle Simpson "The students
do not .support the student gov-
ernment becau.se the purpose and
functions of the council are of
no Interest to them unless they
are Involved."

Thomas Jones "I feel that
.students do not support their

student government because they
are not Interested enough. They
lack information about It and
as most citizens they take the
Council for granted."

Albert Pleasant "I feel that
the students lack Information
about the Council's purposes and
function-s. resulting In a lack of
student interest,"

Joseph C. Mitchell "The stu-
dents do not support their .stu-
dent government because the
Council members are yes mem-
bers to the administration,"

James Dean "Because the
students feel that the student
government Is not taking care
of the many problems which
concern the students,"

Ernestine HIII "Students are
not adequately stimulated. In
order to promote anything peo-
ple should be made aware of
what is going on. There should
be more student participation.
And how should this be made
possible? By having frequent
meetings and by asking the stu-
dents opinions of prevailing is-
sues. However, I am quite opti-
mistic about student government
ot Savannah State College,"

Drinking On Campus

lACPt College students who
drink did so before college.

Drinking behavior is "largely
cultural."

These were two points uncov-
ered by two senior sociology ma-
jors at University of Arkansas.
The ARKANSAS TRAVELER re-
ported their findings.

The students used as their
definition of a drinker "anyone
who had a drink of any alcoholic
beverage during the past six
weeks." The six weeks before
the study, no holiday or spe-
cial school function had oc-
curred.

Other findings:

Most parents disapproved of
their childron's drinking, but
the majority of students who
drink have parents who drink
occasionally.

"The majority of non-drink-
ers' parents never drink.

'Students with friends who
drink were mostly drinkers
themselves. Those who said none
or only some friends drink were
mostly abstainers,

*There was some correlation
between frequency of attending
church and probability of ab-
staining.

*Drunk women were more dis-
approved by both sexes than
drunk men.

Drinkers have less respect for
drunks than do non-drinkers.

Topping the list of reasons
for drinking was enjoyment of
taste. Chief reason for not
drinking was because it was con-
trary to religious training.

*Most popular places for
drinking were night clubs. Most
popular drink was beer.

Few students felt that the
strictest possible enforcement of
rules on student drinking would
decrease drinking.

The sociology students con-
cluded : "The findings should
not be construed as final or all-
int'lusive. However, we feel we
have obtained some useful in-
formation and some insight into
the customs and beliefs of col-
lege students regarding drink-
ing."

Eighty-six students 38 men
and 48 women answered ques-
tionnaires which were the basis
of the data. Since men are a
4-1 majority at the university,
pointed out the TRAVELER, the
sample was not representative of
the total student population.

Of the group questioned, 42
drank and 44 did not. But,
thinks the TRAVELER, it would
be incorrect to say that 48-3 per
cent of the university's students
drink- And no consideration of
difference of percentage of
drinking among men and wom-
en, age groups, amount of drink-
ing done or other distinctions
were made, said the newspaper.

ceaseless struggle to assert him-
self in defiance of destructive
forces gathered around him.

A Greek chorus, the Teacher-
Bird, and Phoenix were the lead-
ing characters of the drama.
Choral dances included the awe-
some "Dance of Forewarning"
and the joyful "Dance of Jubi-
lation," A trio, consisting of
Lula Belle Chance, Frances Car-
ter, and Elzeta Brown interpret-
ed the prayerful "Dance of In-
vocation."

"Dance of Denial" was per-
formed by Eva Boseman. the
Teacher-Bird, Phoenix, enacted
by Drucilla Moore, danced the
tlirilling "Whirlwind Dance of
Creation and Destruction" and
the soulful "Dance of Aspira-
tion." a hand dance.

Members of the Greek Chorus
included Jacquelyn Tyson. Glo-
ria Ford. Hattie Merritt, Frances
Carter. Lula Chance, Eugenia
Nevels, Eizata Brown. Margaret
Burney. Iris Parrish. and Carolyn

Hints On Dress

Fredonia. N. Y. iI.P.i The
Social Life Commission at Fre-
donia Teachers College, State
University, has established the
following social standards in-
terpretations of social vocabu-
lary termed as "strictly yours":

1. The Formal Dance i Class
proms. All School Weekend t
Girls will wear gowns or cocktail
dresses; men will wear a tux or
dinner jacket. A corsage is ex-
pected.

2. The Semi-Formal Dance
(Christmas Party. Class dances
other than informal parties,
etc, I Girls will wear cocktail
dresses or similar "good" dress-
es: men will wear dark suits,
and no corsage is expected,

3. The Informal Dance (Class
parties, Sadie Hawkins dance,
etc. I Dress is optional accord-
ing to the occasion.

Reception lines are expected at
all Formal and Semi-Formal
dances. The people who receive
in the reception lines might be
chairmen of the event, class of-
ficers, faculty and honored
guests. The Social Life Commis-
sion will also institute for For-
mal and Semi-Formal dances
the "dance program." The pro-
cedure for these programs fol-
lows:

Several days prior to the
dance, programs will be made
available for the male half of
the couple expecting to attend
the event. He may. by arranging
with other males (and consent
of his female guest) fill this card
of 10 dances to be shared with
other couples. During the course
of the evening, these 10 dances
will be announced at various
times, and the dances on the
program shall be so honored.

Members of the Social Life
Commission feel that they are
reviving an old custom by insti-
tuting tlie dance program on this

This is the time of year for
our Annual Balls given by the
fraternities on our campus.

Seen sporting the new "Bal-
loon" fashion and the "Lamp-
shade" at the Alpha's Ball were
Lonnle Culver, Kay Frances But-
ler and Clementine Patrick.

Miss Culver was lustrous in a
green satin "Balloon." which
was accented with Rhinestone
straps. Her feet were smartly
outfitted in glass slippers.

Miss Butler was truly the
queen for the nite. She intro-
duced the newest fashion for the
season . . . The Lampshade. Her
dress was white, well fitted at
the top with a flared skirt. With
this lovely dress she wore white
pumps accented with Rhine-
stone Clips.

Miss Patrick was quite lovtlv
in her green and white "B:il
loon" creation. With her dress
she used Rhinestone jewelry and
she also wore glass slippers.

not necessarily coincide with in-
terpretations in other places.
Committee members feel that
these new procedures will help
to unite tlie school in a common
social environment.

"Cast A Speir Be A Charm

By Margaret Balchelor Wilson

Moving in groups as we do I am certain most o( us have heard
the expre-s^slon "You are a doll." At various times this phrase is
used loosely, however most people have subconsciously formed a
cluster of ideas that mold their thinking In determining Just what
makes her tick.

The doll Is poised, neat, polite, attractive, a good conversatlon-
aUst. Intelligent, and engev to please. She appears at ease with
the world.

There are people gifted with these assets for the most part
However, I am inclined to believe that most ot It is attained through
a gradual process called "work."

Living and working together with others well In any society
takes time. Being a "doU" takes time al.so.

We must learn what color or color combinations go best with
our personality and skin tone. What lipstick or rouge help us smlli-
best. What dress, suit, skirt or blouse gives us u feeling ot rlghtne.ss.
There Is always something that is Just right for us. The trouble Is
finding that something. And so. we must do research on oiu'selves
and adjust accordingly.

This theory Is wise and one can profit from It . . . "It Is not
liow much we have but what we do with whal we luive."

Reading literature, talking with others, being alert and bi'lng
a good listener help only when we say to ourselves, "how will this
help me form the character I wish to be?"

Charm Is like pcrfunu', the fragrance remains behind us. Let
us strive to be like Arpcgc'. Joy, or Aphrodlslu . . . Leave a definite
Impression of loveliness, fascination . . . cast a spell.

Decoration. This is a book about
taste in decoration. The author
first gives a historical back-

effects on interiors of such pres-

floor plan, the window wall, tele-
vision, informal living and din-
ing, the cocktail table, built-in
furniture, straw-like furniture
and the one-room apartment.
This book is a "guide" because
it shows how the taste of our

the best advantage, and how it
may be used or adapted In the
future.

Did You Know That :

By Emma Lue Jordan

Baseball, the great American
game, has been for many years
the national game of the United
States.

American soldiers have been
credited with the spread of the
game after World War II Many
of the people of Europe learned
how to play It from the Ameri-
can soldier.

Abner Doubleday. a general in
the Union Army during the War
Between the States, is said to
have begun the sport. The first
rules were laid out and drawn
up by Doubleday at Coopers-
town, N. Y.. in 1839.

The National Baseball Hall of
Fame and Museum was erected
at Cooperstown In Doubleday's
honor.

Aulliors Give
Views On
Ameriran Life

'ACP) Two different men
presented interesting reflections
of American life as they spoke
at Brooklyn College recently.
They were Max Lerner. column-
ist, author and professor, and
Jack Kerouac. author of "On the
Road ' and "The Subterranean."
.spokesman for the "beat" gen-
eration.

KINGSMAN reported their
talks.

Lerner covered theories pro-
nounced in his recent "The
American Civilizaticn." In his
attempt to define American civ-
ilization, he noted its distinct
quality apart from a European
culture.

"It does not mean," he said,
"I hat we are superior to Greece
or Rome, It means, simply, that
v/e are ourselves."

He thinks some aspects of
American society can be ex-
plained in terms of the "run-
away quality" of contemporary
America.

Election Sadness

(ACP) Election excitement
brightened thousands of schools
across America this past month.
but Alabama Polytechnic Insti-
tute in Auburn had a silent elec-
tion day.

On election eve. four API stu-
dents died in what the PLAINS-
MAN called "the worst auto
wreck in the history of Auburn."
Two of the victims were candi-
dates for student body office.

All election advertising was
removed from campus and cam-
p a i g n i n g ceased. Said the
PLAINSMAN:

"How can we say what we
feel? We can't . . . Yes, death
has struck close to home and we
all wunder . .

"To walk down the quiet
streets and past the darkened
classrooms was to see misty
gloom caused by swift and vio-
lent death. Where were the
signs and posters of an election
day? Where would be candi-
dates and workers laughing and
shouting to students on theii
way to vote?

"There could be none of these
things.

"A torn strip of paper moved
quietly in the breeze, signaling
what was once the blatant dis-
play of a now unknown candi-
date. A scrap of brightly-col-
ored paper lay here and another
there mute evidence of the
happiness and action of an elec-
tion now without life.

"Life and death were very big
as you stood there in the early
morning. And you were very
small."

construction at SSC gives a preliminary view of the half-miiiion
dollar structure that will be completely air-conditioned and contain
the latest facilities.

W

Construflion Well Advanced for Ne
Library for Savannah Slat*' (lolleire

The new library, a one-half million dolLir structure, is rapidly
taking shape on the moss-laden campus of Savannah State College.
The location of the library is to be at the main entrance to the
college. The structure is being built of mat-type face brick in colors
similar to Richard R. Wright Hall, men's dormitory.
The construction is under the

supervision of Rives Worrel. with
Cletus W- Bergen and William
P. Beigen, architects. The
library will include fire-proof
stair towers, and fire-proof
walls. It is to be ell shaped
and completely air-conditioned.
Other additions are a lounge and
recreation room for the staff,
adequate rest rooms for men
and women, and public tele-
phones. There will be a receiv-
ing room through which books
and supplies will be indexed and
processed.

In line with the latest modern
library facilities, it will include
an audio- visual auditorium for
movies and film demonstrations,
audio-visual storage, a seminar
room, textbook and institutional
material, reading room, music
room, and a large reading area.
The east elevation of the library
will consist of two stories of
window walls forming the out-
side wall of the lobby, stack
room, and balconies.

President W. K. Payne re-
cently announced that bids for
the one million dollar technical
building will be issued by the
University Building Authority,
and that construction on this
addition should begin within the
next sixty days. The college will
soon be a bee-hive of activity,
with a two and one-half million
dollar construction program
taking form.

In observing the food service at Savannah State College, Presi-
dent William K. Payne revealed that Adams Hall, main dining room
at Savannah State College, served nearly three hundred thousand
meals from July 1, 1957 to June 30, 1958, An average of three hun-
dred and eighty-five people were served at each meal, three times
dally during the regular term. In addition, an average of ninety
people eat three meals during the summer quarter.

AAC Prepares
Teaching List

Edmond, Okla. (I.P.) A

teaching list for college teachers
and a self-survey handbook are
being planned by an American
Association of Colleges for
Teacher Education committee in
which Dr. W. Max Chambers,
president of Central State Col-
lege, is an officer.

The teaching list would first
require a survey of all colleges
and universities preparing teach-
ers for higher education. The
list would be subdivided into va-
rious fields. The self-survey
handbook would be a guide for
administration and faculties to
project their needs scientifically-
Financial, housing, curriculum,
enrollment needs all would be
covered by the scientific re-
search guide-
It's a national problem need-
ing a national office, says Dr.
Chambers. Access to the list by
AACTE members would mean
they would have to check only
the list rather than to visit grad-
uate schools over the country-

several state and regional meet-
ings including the Annual High
School Trades Conference,
Dental Society and its auxil-
iaries, Press Institute. National
Alumni Association, Alumni
Banquet, etc. In co-operation
with the Girl Scouts. Georgia
Interscholastic As.sociatlon. Can-
Cer Society and several com-
munity groups, the College
.served meals at nominal cost to
these groups.

The dining hall serves "A"
type meals. Mrs. Vametta
Frazier of Savannah, Georgia,
has served as Dietitian of the
dining hall for twenty-eight
years.

The dining hall serves 7,560
meals during the regular school
term and 90 meals for summer
school. It is well equipped with

OPINION COLUMN

Ediiralion: WorM's IJififiosl Har<;ain

The people of the- Unltod .Stiitcs have Uma been accustomed to
look for bargains and special Hales. PracUcally all mc-thodH of com-
munication carry news of special events which represent barKalns.
The Idea underlying thl.s continuous search for special consideration
does not stop with the commercial world. It permeates all aspects
of our Individual and national life. In our citle.s and communities
citizens tend to operate on that basis. The serious lack of proper
recreation facilities, adequate schools, mental and physical health
facilities, qualified teacher.s and leaders for schools and other forms
of social groupings represents another side of this picture, Every-
one wishes to secure these things at a bargain or a sale price. In
our schools and colleges the Idea Is represented by the tendenc^y
of students to get by with as little effort as possible. Many enjoy
talking about the ease with which they pass certain courses and
the time they save by changing majors and carrying over-loads.
This tendency to get by with as little us possible has been extended
too far by too large a numhei- of people.

An one eonshU-rs Ihe real meanlnK ol this tendciuy, iic finds
that thr procedure does nol In any ciise reprcsinl a barnain or
Having. 'Mie four years which the average hidlviduul has allotlcd
for a colli'Ki* ethicallon sliould n-|ircscn( niori- (ban the passInK of
uoursi-H and tin- ainassliiK ol credits. II Is possible thai a student
may spend bis allotted lime for a liaeralaNreiilr dearer and slill
leave collcKe less prepared (ban one who never weni to colleKr. If
the eollcKe education Is supjiosed to help a stiideiil live heller and
do iK'tter whatever he chooses as Ids voeallon. 11 certainly would
not he a harKuIn lo wet less, In this respect, tJie eolleHc rdueatlon
Is very expensive to those wlio derive so iitlli' Krowtli, so little depth,
so mile iiiiderslandini,', and so little appreciation.

The iiiiinlpiihillon of cour.scs and iiroKiaiiis for the special reason
of avoiding problem;! and getting out of college by a specific date
Invariably leads to higher priced education. The progress made In
refliieim^nt of measurement, articulation, and precision In the me-
chanical world must also be applied to the social and cultural
areas. Accuracy, thoroughness and deflnlteness of planning pro-
duce excelh'nt results when ai)plled to social and economic prob-
lems, Students who continue their programs and apply themselves
diligently hocauso they have a need for tlie subjects usually take
ndvanUige of a bargain, There Is always a bargain In a college
education when one's educaUoii and training becomes Increasingly
Influential In his living. It Is possible for educatonal training to be
rated as llie biggest bargain In the modern world. It Is through tills
process tlmt great strides have been made In the Improvement of
living, the extension of life, and the pursuit of happiness.

Eduentlon an a by-))roduct ol a Utrnite society Is almost always
placed at the top of Its class. And In order to survive In a literate
society one must have an education whether It be foimal or In-
formal. Of the two approai^hes toward an education one Is found
to be more valuable than the other, This being the case the two
approaches have been studied and analyzed carefully, taking each
delicate part and placing It In Its own particular category. From
the analysis, the rollowlng sunnnatlon has been determined.

To live el'l'eetlvely h a modern society one needs that train-
ing which will enable hini lo aceoniplisli this jiartlcular task. The
training; Includes what nuitlern man calls a formal education. This
I'ormal eihicalion will lalic tdni liuouKh the various tleparlnients
of a school ol lil)eral avis, lien- man l)e(;ins with antiquity, and
studies the Idens of f;reat men of that era. laUinc everythhif; down
that may he ol value lo him thai rclales In Ibc oh.jret nr the idea,
that he would like (o master. I'or lour years or mine he is un-
disturbed by outside forces ;ind lets nolhin Ket in his way lo
reach his idtlmate noal. .Alter this man has eoniplcled his educa-
tional retiuirenients he is ready to take his place in this literate
society and to place above all things the value of money. For the
most part, this man lives his lile oat in ronilort, (bat is he has all
the material thinfis in life, hut he nds^rs soine(hin that the man
with the iiil'ornial education has.

The man with an informal education docs not go through all
of the stages that a nuin with a formal edvicatlon goes through. For
the most part, a man with an informal education does not seek an
education as such, but with the propinquity of nature and
mankind, this man has an opportunity to achieve much. The
phenomenon of the prt)pinqidty of nature is that lad which makes
this man connoisseur of all his undertakings. Unlike the man with
the formal education this num does not study the ways of primordial
man for the sake ol knowing nuire than ills fellowman In order to
rise above him and look down on him in a condescending manner.
But. this knowledge which is usually gotten from the book of golden
rules is supplemented by this man's unceasing quest to understand
human nature. To do this he begins with nature in its crudest form;
he tries to understand the ways and actions of the insensate
creature which God put in this world for him to oversee. Step by
step he goes through the stages of learning, missing nothing that
will enable him to understand human nature. One of the greatest
of all human qualities is that of being philanthrophic. and the only
way one can accomplish this goal is to do as this man has done.
Study nature and human nature carefully and try to understand
its secrets and limitations. The man with an Informal education
has more opportunities to achieve this quality, because he is closely
connected with these occurrences in nature and this quality is more
valuable than any other, and man can achieve this more readily if
he seeks an education, the informal way.

SUidciil Opinions

By Sherman Roberson

The topic .selected for .student
comment Is, "Will the addition
of Savannah State's new library
and technical huildines in-
fluence enrollment?" Opinions
were solicited from various stu-
dents. These are their reactions:

Ilattie Burton, junior, major-
ing In Physical Education states.
"The addition of the.se two
vitally-needed buildings to our
campus will tend to lncrea.se en-
rollment. The facilities will be
extended considerably,"

Minnie Ruth Smith, freshman,
majoring In Elementary Educa-
tion, .says, "The addition of
buildings to our fair campus will
draw more students to Savan-
nah State, It will also raise the
status of our beloved school."

Johnny Harris Is very en-
thusiastic about our new tech-
nical building and feels that "to
the entering students Interested
In engineering, these added
facilities .should serve as in-
spiration "

Gwendolyn Davis, .senior.
majoring in General Science
states that "the addition of the
technical building might have
an effect on the enrollment" but
.she fails to .see where the library
will have any influence.

Lonnie Culver, junior, major-
ing in Business Education, feels
that. "Enrollment may not be
Increased, but the students may
attain better averages due to the
addition of the new library, be-
cause of the more materials that
will be available "

Mable McPherson, senior,
majoring in English feels that
"the addition of the library will
not Influence enrollment, but
perhaps it will have an effect on
scholastic averages. The tech-
nical program will probably draw
students interested in science."

The students seem to have
varied views as to some of the
changes that may possibly occur
as a result of additions to our
campus. This reporter feels that
these buildings are much-
needed, long-awaited facilities.

I UK PKKISCOPE

By Sherman Roberson

The recent firing of a V. S. ballistic missile from Cape Canaveral,
Florida, has presented somewhat of a problem. The nose cone of
ilie missile contained a mouse. The missile traveled 6,000 statute
miles from Cape Canaveral and landed near Ascension Island in the
South Atlantic Ocean.

This was the first known successful firing of a ballistic weapon
more than 6,000 miles into outer space and which survived the red
hot plunge back into the earth's atmosphere. The nose cone of the
missile has not been recovered as of yet. In London. England, the
Royal Society of Prevention of Cruelty to Animals said it will pro-
test to the American Embassy about the mouse being fired into
space.

The Periscope moves momentarily to Ottawa, Canada, which
was the work bench for recent talks completed between President
Elsenhower and Prime Minister John G. Dlefenbaker and other high
Canadian officials.

It is indespensible that the highest degree of mutual trust and
respect exist between the United States and Canada,

Due to the addition of Alaska as the 49th state, increased
emphasis should be placed on United States and Canadian relations.
The United States will touch Canada on the Northwest as well as
the South and the common border of the two countries will be in-
creased hy 1,500 miles.

The long awaited, talked about, summit talks appear to be a
merry-gc-round of propaganda. Both parties involved have made
numerous accusations, each accusing the other of delaying these
talks. This situation appears to be symbolic of a high school dance,
where the girls are too shy to dance and the fellows are glad of it.

The Periscope focuses the troubled scene of Lebanon. The
U. N. observer teams have asserted that President Nasser's United
Arab Republic has been rendering aid to the rebels. The teams
reported tliat for the first time arrangements had been made for
them to travel into the northeastern Lebanese area which is re-
garded as one of the most likely infiltration routes from U. A. R.'s
province of Syria. This area is currently controlled by rebel leader
Sabrl Hamadi.

The Periscope noted that It has been stated that the recession
is leveling off, unemployment has decreased, and the hardest blow
has been felt. Let's hope so, anyway!

We do not condemn a person's being a member of some organiza-

As a college graduate, you will be expected to be a resourceful
person In the event you are called upon to perform some duty you
are not thoroughly familiar with, you will be expected to know

conclusion, we also think that as a college graduate it is your
responsibility to select, to as great a degree as possible, those organ-

Why Do Students Fail?

By Alfonso Arnold

Ask a student why he failed
a particular course and the
blame is invariably placed upon
the instructor. While this is not
always the true picture, many
teachers do, by their methods,
assume partial responsibility for
the student's failure- In many
cases teachers cannot or do not
simplify their subject matter-
However, this does not mean
that the teacher does not know
the subject or material but that
he is unable to bring his instruc-
tion down to the level of the
students.

Some students fail because
they do not have enough time
to prepare adequately for their
studies. As to the why of the
time element, it is often re-
marked that some teachers seem
to think that they are the only
teachers, With this idea preva-
lent, they thrust upon the stu-
dent assignments that will con-
sume four or five hours for that
particular coruse alone. There
is an apparent disregard for
assignments given by other in-
structors-

The foregoing accounts are
what you hear from the student
who failed a course. Every fac-
tor other than himself is blamed.
While many of the factors out-
.side himself should be viewed
with concern, I believe that, gen-
erally, students fail because of
the improper utilization of time.
This is to infer that there is a
tendency to forsake genuine
studying until just before the
final examination. As a result
there is an all-out endeavor to
catch up on neglected work by
staying up all night studying.
Therefore, when the examining
hour comes, there is both
physical and emotional fatigue.
Indeed, if he had used his brain
to this extent, his successful out-
come in the course would have
been ascertained long before the
"cramming process"

How True Is Truth?

By Sherman Roberson

Out of physical, chemical, or un-
known changes our world was
born.

Who can state with validity, out
of which did it occur?

Even the theories employed are
the results of abstract thought.

A power greater than man's gave
birth to this treasured uni-
verse.

I employ many questions, to
which there appear no
answers;

The scientist sets forth vague
solutions in their regards.

But even he doubts the results
or their skepticism.

And why not I? Is this not logic?

I profess myself to be one of a
scientific attitude.

I even share the hope of becom-
ing a scientist.

But even those things we claim
as truth.

Should we not forever question
their validity?

Should we not seek truth even
beyond the threshold of truth?

I shall venture even if I go alone.

Your Role as College GracUiale in Your iloiunuinity

There is no doubt that a large number of us come from rural
and small communities. However, the size of your community is of
no major importance. It will in no way cliange what will be ex-
pected of you as a college graduate. Therefore, persons returning
to the small communities are just as important as persons return-
ing to the large communities.

As a college graduate you will be called upon to perform and
expected to do many duties that might not be directly related to
the work you were trained for. You will be invited to join various
clubs, serve on various committees, explain or give your views on
controversial topics, organize clubs and any number of other things

Man ami His Present Era

By Leroy Mobley

Now we stand on the threshold

of space.
Awed and overwhelmed by our

ignorance
Of the things we found we did

not know.
Yet pleased with our untiring

vigilance.

Man nor mankind will never
cease to wonder

At the complexity of the uni-
verse -

The only question that now
arises is.

Whether this is a blessing or a
curse.

the College Entrance E.Namina-
tlon Board tests. High school
transcripts must show 16 full
units including four of English
and 3'- of mathematics through
trigonometry and solid geometry.
Apprentices work full-time for
General Electric and are paid at
a beginning rate of S60 a week,
eventually making $80 a week.
They have Union College classes
at night. The program covers
four years during which two
years of college credit, for which
General Electric pays the tuition,
may be earned. Full-time work
is continued during the summer
but classes are attended only
during the normal academic
year.

At the end of this program it
is possible to obtain a leave of
absence to continue work toward
a degree on a full-time basis or
continue working for the firm
and going to college at night.
There is a possibility of addi-

Year of Chemise

This will be known as the
"Year of the Chemise" (circa
1958) and Mr, Mort has taken it,
in all of its many and talented
variations, and adapted it to
show how completely and femi-
nine a silhouette it can be. After
seeing the latest renditions of
this new and wonderful theme
there should be no doubt, even
among the most stubborn who
thought they could never wear
this completely wearable fashion.

After all. as any owner of a
Mr, Mort Chemise will state,
loud and clear, "to wear one Is
to love one." The eye. the male
eye in particular, has become
educated but not without the aid
of gentle tailoring, meticulous fit
and dramatic detail. These
points, thanks to Mr, Mort, have
made this collection one that's
appealing and exciting. Take
yours two piece, one piece, gently
blouson or starkly simple. Have
yours in silk, in wool, in crisp
cotton, in cotton tweed or cotton
knit.

For early morning until late at
night, dress or casual , . , what-
ever your desire in the way of a
chemise, Mr, Mort has the che-
mise for your figure. This whole
new group is spirited, young and
wearable and as always Mr.
Morfs fashion is the kind of
good fashion that becomes a way
of dressing ... not the way of
a fad.

TIGER'S ROAR PREVIEW

BOOIv REVIEW

By Thurneli Johnson

Home Play for the Pre-School
Child. June Johnson, Harper and
Brothers Publishing Company.
New York- 1957.

The author's special qualifica-
tion for writing this book is from
the results of experience with
her own children. Her materials
came from a great deal of study-
ing and reading, public play-
ground classes, talking to other
mothers, and other nursery
teachers, back yard nursery
groups, and ideas from the chil-
dren themselves.

The author's purpose in the
book is to recognize the child at
any age. in any situation, and in
any mood. Thus she can portray
the potentialities as well as the
limitations of each age.

The book is the result of ex-
perience with children. The
ideas for its roots were formed
several years ago. when their
needs and requests led over into
pre-school learning through fun.
It is to help in using the child's
ideas, or in developing new ones.
Each idea in this has been tested
and approved by experts; the
pre-schoolers themselves. The
illustrations were done by the
children so that you. the reader,
may know approximately what
to expect: not the cute, quaint
products of a grown up imitating
a four-year-old child, but the
messy originals of the happy
young experimenters themselves.

A child's pre-school years, says
Robert Burns, are "like the
snow-falls in the river, a
moment white, then melts for-
ever. '

If you can learn to look in the
developing mind of your child
as a fascinating pageant, he will
sense the genuine richness of
his hfe: then you will be able to

relax and have fun with him
and all the gay things you do
will give him true enrichment.
His creative imagination will
develop.

The child who acquires ade-
quate rest and wholesome food,
and who is well disciplined is
an easy-to-live-with child. His
happiness improves your atti-
tude toward him and because of
that, this might help you,
"Heaven lies about us in our
infancy."

This book is highly recom-
mended for pre-school teachers
and mothers, because in this
book the child is presented with
such things as creative crafts,
drawing, modeling mediums and
designs with paper and paste.
Crafts give your child a chance
at self-expression.

Remember, your child needs
play space. His job during these
early years is simply to grow
like an unfolding flower. His
creative toys are his tools.

Psychologists and educators
feel strongly that nursery ex-
periences are of vast importance
in the mental growth and social
development of the pre-school
child.

In conclusion, the value of the
pre-school child In the nursery
groups, playground classes,
neighborhood playground
groups, and in the home will be-
come more obvious as the time
goes on. Your child's develop-
ment will show you how well
worth the effort is. If your child
has a difficult time at first, stay
with lum if necessary, but what-
ever you do, don't give up.

The book sets forth the follow-
ing points:

1. Don't give too much guid-
ance.

2.Make your remarks general.

3. Display his work.

MOVIE REVIEW

'Desire Under tlie EIiiih"

By Yvonne Hooks
"There's something dark
prowling in the corners,"
grunted Ephram, And so there
was , , , in the life of a New
England family during the
I840's,

"Desire Under the Elms." a
movie based on the play by
American dramatist Eugene
O'Neil. tells the story of Anna,
the 25-year-oId Italian wife of
76-year-old New England
farmer, Ephram; his son Eben,
who falls in love with fiery Ann,
and their baby whom Anna
murders to insure Eben's love
for her,

Burl Ives, as Ephram, gives an
impressive performance as the
stern, gusty Puritan hubsand
and father, Sophia Loren.
sultrily plays the part of selfish.
passoniate spitfire Anna, An-
thony Perkins, deftly portrays
quiet Eben who is hate-filled
and aloof.

It seems to me that most

have some small comment m
ladles' fashions ni\d nothing for
the dear fellows. So I decided
I would Rive the young u\en a
treat. Here are some of the latest
fashions for college and Ivy
League men.

The latest men's fashions are
the handsome "Pahn Beach

find comfortable, tailored fit.
which springs bark precisely
after every washing,

"Clilc" suit.s are the suli,lei(

'I'he "lllazer" Is cut for iuit-

classic "llia/er" cul finds new

The latest Jazz of a Jacket dc-

short, loose lightweight and cut

the "Jetster." because It leatls
a second life as a flight travel

"Jetster" Is destined to replace
sports coats over matching city-
shorts. The "Jetster" dliJs to a
point and ends In a cardigan
neck.

Around the world or around
the town. Include In your ward-
robe Acrllan slacks. These slacks
hold their press, keep their
shape, shed wrinkles fast and
are so-ooo comfortable, fellows.
A hot-weather outfit In which
you could trudge along the
streets of Italy, yet turn up the
next day In Paris as impeccably
groomed as anyone In the Hit/,
bar Is the "Double Olen Urqu-
hart" plaid; 65 per cent dacron
and 35 per cent cotton, It dries
overnight as well. The white
shirt signals one of the big
textile stories of the decade:
pure cotton has finally been
processed to dry to perfection
without Ironing. White slacks
become practical as well as
handsome for summer leisure In
an Acrllan blend which dries
fast and smooth.

we look at the "ALPINE HAT."
It folds on both sides, comes In

would be deducted from income

A grant of .$800,000 has been
made by the Ford Foundation to
cover the co.st of an inter-unl-
venslty vLsiting scholar pro-
gram. The four universities par-
ticipating in the program are the
Unlver.slty of California, the
University of Chicago. Columbia
Unlver.slty and Harvard Univer-
sity. At the request of the other
three Institutions, the University
of Chicago will serve as coordi-
nator and disbursing agent of
the grant.

Each of the universities will
select two visiting .scholars each
year, the Invitations being coor-
dinated to assure a balance In
various fields of study. The visi-
tors will come In approximately
equal numbers from four re-
gions:

Indla-Ceylon; the Near East
and Pakistan; Southeast Asia,
Including the Philippines; and
the Far East, Including Japan,
Korea. Hong Kong, and Taiwan.
The grants will provide for for-
eign travel, maintenance, and
travel In the United States.
Wives of the scholars will be
invited, and children will be al-
lowed to accompany their par-
ents.

The visiting scholar program
is designed to bring intellectual
leaders from Asia and the Near
East to the United States. It will
operate through Invitations ini-
tiated by the universities rather
than by ppplicatlons by the can-
didates.

Hartford, Conn. (I.P.) A

long-range plan for student as-
sistants In the dapartment of
mathematics at Trinity College
has received substantial support
from the International Business
Machines Corp.

Dr. Dorwart said five assist-
antships in the department will
be awarded to sophomores for
the academic year. 1957-58. Each
will carry a stipend of $400 for
the year, either as a tuition
credit or in cash, and will be
renewable for the junior and
senior years if the student's rec-
ord warrants renewal.

Each student assistant will be
expected to devote from 10 to
12 hours per week to the follow-
ing projects.

Some reading of home-work

papers in the basic mathematics
courses;

Attendance at certain of the
departmental meetings and par-
ticipation in the discussions:

Assistance in blackboard drills
at sessions for weaker students;
and

For seniors, some actual teach-
ing in freshman sections under
careful supervision.

"I anticipate a four-fold re-
turn from the successful instal-
lation of the assistantships," Dr.
Dorwart said. "First, an overall
increase in the interest of math-
ematics; second, an increased In-
terest in the teaching of mathe-
matics ; third, a growing realiza-
tion that grants for financial as-
sistance requiring some work are
more helpful to the college and
to the students than outright
gifts: and fourth, an awareness
on the part of mathematics de-
partments in other colleges of
the need for a definite program
like this to encourage majors in
this important field."

Education today has many dimt'nsitms. Tht- term dimnsion
often brinfis to our minds early txperientcs In h( hool. Vhvn. wi-
learned that objects may possess lenRlh, breadth, and thirkness.
Later, in our work in algebra, we discovered Diat there were stili
other dimensions, Kecent discoveries have added to the traditional
three which we thought to be final. The Theory of Kelalivily, de-
veloped hy Albert Einstein, points up the fourth dimension lime.

In our colleges and universities we find sludcnls of many kinds.
Some eoneeive of collese primarily in terms of length; the number
of quarters, or years re(|uired to complete an under-jjraduate
curriculum. Another group of students sees the college degree pro-
gram as one providing an extensive variety of experiences. A third
group looks at college, nol only from the standpoint of the length
of the college program, and the breadlh ol the progrum. but also
from the standpoint of the depth ot the learning experience.

In recent years, olher groups in increasing numbers have ap-
peared on (he horizon. Individuals in this category combine all the
otiier groups and add the concepts of lime and space. To this group,
the college education means the procurement of experlenees thill
are definite enough to dualify lliem for parllclpaMon in (he space-
age economy. Such learning goes beyonri ineniori/alitn and mere
reeiill. It is arliculated uitli (he studenCs rfincept oi Ihe present
and the future constructed by (he sluden(.

As more anrl nior<' siudeiils beennie aware of both lime and
effort In relaliciii In llie present and the future, they will he con-
cerned about (he iiualiiy as well as the (|uantlty of the learning ex-
periences offered in college. There will he less satisfaction with the
pursuit of a type ot learning thai is cloudy and confused. Theory
and abstract learning, along with ihlnking and reasoning, will
appear concrete and delinlle (o lliose expecting to live successfully.
Thus inerparation today must consist of many dimensions.

Dear Dr. Griffith:

I am very happy to report to
you that Miss Ornabell Dawklns
has been doing excellent work in
the clinical laboratory of the
Henry Phipps Institute.

Miss Dawkins started work
here as a technician on January
20. 1958. She was quick to pick
up the methods which we use
and she had reached such a
degree of proficiency and re-
liability by July that it was
possible to trust her with the full
operation of the laboratory dur-
ing the vacation of the senior
medical technician.

We are very pleased with Miss
Dawkin's personality and quiet,
cheerful spirits as well as with
her every day work.

))innie.s;ilvc and l)op. And be-
lieve it or not, we have "Jazz,
enlhuHlasts" who are not aware
of the differences among tlie
tyiH'K. To the.se people, Dl/,/,y
Olllcsple, Miles Davis, Kenny
Clark and Gerry Mulligan are
playhiK the same typi' of nmsie.

Do you think the "Ju/,/. en-

that modei'n J a/,/, started with
hop iiroiind ll)4r) and that with-

today? They do not! Do they
know that progi'esslve ja/.z made

Stan Kenton receives most of the

movement of cool Jazz, came Into
existence and that credit lor thl.s
goes to Lennle Tristan and John
Lewis? In few Instances were
the "enthusiasts" awai'e of these
facts.

If you would be a jazv; en-

Dear Student Body:

1 feel compelled to comment
about ihe school spirit which is
being nu^nifested at our college
this fall.

I believe that the atmosphere
which has characterized pep
rallies, football ganu's a n d
campus aetivUles in general has
reflected a kind of school .spirit
that would be. in the best sense,
representative of any college
anyhcre! At times, during my
previous years at the college, I
have felt that too many of us
were lacking In this respect.

Freshmen, thouyli you have
been a part of this beloved in-
stitution only a short while you
have n\ade known your loyalties
thro\igh your cheering at games
and tlu'ough your fervent sing-
ing of the Alma Mater.

Fellow Students, I salute you I

Sincerely yours,

Julius L. Wilson, MD..
Director.

The above letter Is typical of
the type of information that is
received concerning many of the
graduates of this Department,

The 1958-59 school year has
"gotten off to a good start" in
the Biology Department, as It
attempts to continue preparing
young men and women to work
in areas other than teaching
Should some of you be inter-
ested in vocations or professions
other than teaching, consult
some of the students who are
majoring in biology at SS.C. as
well as the biology staff for fur-
ther Information on job oppor-
tunities.

By Jame.s N, Nevels

Upon relating the conditions
at home and abroad, the Peri-
.scope reveal.s that the world is in
a state of well-known and seem-
ingly never ending perplexity.
GOVERNMENT

What does a cea.se-flre mean?
'/'he man on the .street says. "It
means we Just aren't getting
anywhere Hke this." Let us .stop
and talk about It. Let's talk
aljout Lebanon and Jordan, the
Middle East and Formosa, Let's
talk about Quemoy and Matsu.
'l'h(- Chlne.se Communists have
tried by force to drive Nation-
alists from Quemoy and Matsu
'I heir purpose Is to gain control
of Formosa. They have tried
(.^uns, and hard shell artillery,
but It didn't bring about defeat.
Now they are trying sweet talk
and .sugar coated promises. Let
us hope that Generalissimo
Chiang Kai-shek and Peng Teh-
hual, MInl.ster of National De-
fense for Communist China, will
be able to come to an agreement
which will give the free world
peaceful relief.

SCIENCE

Less than a year after the
United States sent its first
satellite hurling Into space, an
attempt was made to shoot a
rocket to a predetermined height
never before achieved. The
rocket reached a height of 79.212
miles. The rocket's destination
was the moon. The Pioneer i the
name given to this space
traveler) came within a third of
the distance, and stayed up for
43 hours. The rocket was de-
signed to reach within 50,000
miles of the moon. In this it
failed, but ole Pioneer set a
pi'ccedent that may someday be
followed by manned air flight
to the moon.

LABOR

"Jesse" James Hoffa rides
again! This time the posse is led
by Sheriff George Meany.
Meany's aim Is to drive Hoffa off
the labor range. Hoffa. head of
the International Brotherhood of
Teamsters, is trying to create
labor pacts throughout the na-
tion. If he is successful, this will
make him a giant figure in
organized labor.

EDUCATION

Will "Have lesson. Will learn"
replace our favorite TV programs
in the near future? The Ford
Foundation Is running a series
of experiments regarding educa-
tional teaching programs on
television. If this experiment is
successful, bright students will
be able to exhaust their abilities
and skills by supplementing
their regular classroom courses.
This will also mean that the best
instructors will be available to
millions of students.
RELIGION

"Once he belonged to us, . , ."
This tliought must have run
through the minds of five hun-
dred million Catholics and
millions of other people as they
paid their respect to the holy
remains of Pope Pius XII in St.
Peter's Basilica.

Eugenio Maria Giuseppe Gio-
vanni Pacelli. 82-year-old high
priest, is now resting with his
260 predecessors. He was a holy
man. a political Pope. He was
brilliant, majestic and awesome.
This great man will long be
remembered, Yes, once he be-
longed to us. . . "Now he be-
longs to the ages."

The

Spot

Light

By Ernestine Hill
The crowd was going wild . . .
the player fell a few yards from
the goal hne. As he fell he
tapped the ball only about three
feet from the ground. It was at
this point that Ulysses Stanley
swooped the ball up and ran for
a touchdown. And so it shall go
down in Savannah State College
football history as a spectacular
play and Stanley's name shall
be associated with it.

Stanley, a native of Dublin,
Georgia, is a graduate of Oconee
High School. He is a senior
majoring in Physical Education.
This young man, noted for his
neatness In dress, looks as if he
stepped "right out of Esquire"
even when he wears "blue jeans."
Stan's taste in music runs from
Debussy to Dakota Staton.

Stanley has a sophisticated air.
Yet there is a ruggedness about
him that makes him quite ap-
pealing.

His hobbies are cards, Deloris,
dancing, music, Deloris, sports
and Deloris.

Presently his great desire is
to become a Physical Therapist.
This writer is happy to add
Ulysses Stanley to the list of
Spotlight Subjects.

Pootrv Consultant,
Frost, Interviewed

By James Nevels
Robert Frost, internationally
famous poet who is the Poetry
Consultant at the Library of
Congress, was interviewed at a
news conference. Mr. Frost gave
his views on modern poetry and
separated it into two classes.
According to Frost the first class
consists of that poetry which is
obscure, abstract and incompre-
hensive. . , . "This type." says
Mr, Frost, "is born dead." The
second type of modern poetry in-
cludes that which is written in
intelligible, clear, simple, easy-
to - read, easy - to - understand
language. This type is being
written Mr, Frost concluded.

Some of this famed author's
works are "Stopping by Woods
On A Snowy Evening. " "Home
Burial," "A Lone Striker," "The
Death of the Hired Man" and
"After Apple Picking."

The question "Why is It that
students make such little use of
the Alpha Kappa Mu Tutorial
System?" was asked several stu-
dents. They made these state-
nuMits:

Richard Fitzgerald, senior,
suggest,s, "The students may be
bashful and since the tutors are
also students, they may be re-
luctant tt) admit that they do
not know their subject matter."

Sammy White, senior, states
that "There are several students
who don't know the members of
the tutorial system and they are
too lazy to find out. However,
there are several students who
seek help from upperelassmcn
who have the same major and
are not necessarily nu'mbers of
the tutorial system."

Jimmie Colson, senior, In-
dicates "Many students may be
reluctant to secure aid from the
nu-mbers of the tutorial system
because they feel the tutors are
not qualified."

Johnny Strong, sophomore,
says, "Perhaps the students de-
sire help, but don't know the
tutors."

Jessie Carter, junior, states,
"Perhaps some tutors do not In-
dicate by their attiUidos their
availability for assisting stu-
dents."

Marlon Dingle, junior, feels,
"The students may think that
the tutors arc too busy."

Delores Julian, junior, states,
"1 d(m't know why the students
do not (ise the tutorial system.
The students In general should
be proud to ncceijt the opinions
of other students who nmy have
soineLhlng valuable to offer
them,"

natural or dyed darker shades.
"I dress mine up with a hat and
it's fine for church or parties,"
she says.

A basic tweed or black coat is
Nellie Shellman's choice. Nellie,

ber down to a bare minimum,
says Minnie I'iuth Smith, an 18-
year-old transfer student from
Howard University, who remem-
bers the size of her dormitory
closet. And "Don't throw out
your high school sweaters and
skirts," says Pauline Jordan,
another sophomore. "Remember
no one else has seen them."

For additions to your sports-
wear, "buy a blanket plaid skirt
with matching top." says Caro-
lyn Stafford, who predicts she'll
see lots of bold bright outfits in
Savannah State's halls.

Bulky knit sweaters worn with
jumpers in chemise or empire
styles are the favorites of Kay
P. Hamilton, a 21-year-old
junior.

There's less enthusiasm about
the new mohair knits. "One for
novelty is all you'll need." Mar-
garet Burney, a 22-year-old
senior, has stated.

On campus. Juanita Baker, a
21-year-old senior, predicts she'll
see lots of tapered slacks and
crew neck sweaters. For those
who Uke the unusual or are un-
comfortable in wool, there's
wide-wale corduroy, a heavy,
durable material back this fall.
DRESSES WOOL; "This is
the college fabric for casual as
well as dressy wear," says Eldora
Manning, a junior who's 21.

"The empire, of all the new
styles, is most flattering to the
figure and dressiest as well."
adds Gwendolyn Davis, who'll
wear her new empires to fra-
ternity parties this fall.

Most of the young ladies prefer
classic sheaths and full-skirted
styles, but recommend the new
fall colors: benedictine orange,
taupe, and moss green. One
trasitional cotton, perhaps a
paisley print, is a must for they
are wary of our Indian Summer
weather at times.

from Atlanta students interested
in the Savannah State College
program. The Public Relations
Director and Associate Editor
stayed in Atlanta three days and
visited two high schools daily.
Other representatives from
neighboring college campuses

Presidonfn Message

The world In which wc ]\yi: today Is one that puts a premium
on the new and the different. Thin tendency has been obvious In
the field of mechanics and Industry for many years. It Is now
becoming one of the most Important trends In the social, the
economic, and the political areas. Our educational systems which
Include our elementry, high schools, colleKcs, and graduate schools
are being called upon to provide the education and training which
will prepare people for such an age. It Is Important that college
students participate to the fullest extent In all aspects of college
life If they are to prepare for such a social order.

For the past two decades, schools have emphasized the fact
that the curriculum consists of the total experiences which In-
dividuals have In school under the guidance of teachers. That
factor has thrown new light on all aspects of our education. In
our colleges and universities, students learn many things which
are not taught In the classroom. The processes by which they make
their way through the colleges and the universities are ust as Im-
jjortant as the facts, understanding, appreciations, and othi^r things
which they get, The amount of thinking and reasoning that goes
on In the process Is certainly one of the most Important factors
In living today and preparing for the life of tomorrow and the
future,

11 Is Interesting to nnti^ how many pi'ople can be assembled
when lher(! Is a complulnl, to hi' made. Almost every student Is
Interested In biding present and In lending support to any move-
ment which undi'rtakes to dc'stroy or demolish anything that may
come up. Very often the natui'e and the type of Item under con-
sideration is of such Insignificance!, that one wonders how so many
people are concerm.'d. The ability to discriminate between those
things which are Important and those which are In.slgnlflcant Is
an Important sign of maturlt.y and ability to think and evaluate.
If pi'ogicss Is to be made In th(,' Improvement of our society and our
living, college students must bt' expected to take the lead In thinking
through and evaluating all situations before taking active part,

A(!cei]|.ln(', a position of leadership In a college organization or
society should mean more than merely presiding at the meetings.
It should moan that the offlrers ui'e planning, recommending, and
executing pi'ogranis that will carry fcu'wurd the alms and purposes
of the organizations. Moj-e attention sliould be given to the selection
of officers who have thi' ability, who have the Interest, and who
have IrlK! desire to provide leadership that will help these bodies
bi'come more elfi^etlve In the develoi)ment of constructive pro-
giams. It Is not an Idle dir'am Uj look forward to the day when
each organlzatlcm In Its own way will be able present to Its group
and to the Institution, programs that represent constructive think-
ing and planning. Many of the bo.vs and girls now In college already
I){)ssess ability to do these things. The ma.|or problem lies In find-
ing someone who Is able to take the lead and who Is willing to
undergo the Initial difficulties that come with the launching of
ni'W progniuis. It Is expected that during the coming year and
future yeais of Havannah Stati> College, the young men and young
women here will bring this desire and this view to full fruition.

One who moves abcmt the college campus during the year of
IDSS can see many opportunities for Improvements In all aspects
(if our eolli'gi'. As the physical plant, the faculty, and other aspects
of the colli'i',e ari^ growing and developing, we should expect com-
mensurale growth In all of oui- organizations, Institutions, and
l,he general .student reaiM.lon. LlviM'ywhero young college men and
woou'n oughl, to be rising to nieel the challenges which face them
In tills new age and that which Is coming at a very rapid pace,

it Is too much to expect that leadership on the college campus
will be eenterod In any one organization or In any one or two
students. Many Individuals are required to provide leadership In
the many different fields that exist. It has been discovered that
students and Individuals have time to do any any of the things
which they eurm-stly desire to do. If meetings are necessary, time
Is necessary, planning is necessary, then there are those who want
to do the.se things who have the time. Time Is only one of the
raetoi\s. Another factor which comes Into the picture Is that of
finance. Student bodies are able to provide through their own
activities and own programs, finances to run their programs. The
development t)f ability to finance organizations, to provide the
uu'ans by which they may be able to operate, and to provide for
I lie things which arc for the common good, are signs of maturity
and signs of progress. When people are able to participate In the
financing of their own Institutions, they are able to appreciate
their worth and to evaluate the matters which are brought before
them. Some thought should be given to this kind of planning in
the organizations, the societies, and other types of organized groups
here on the campus at Savannah State College,

HUMAN INTEREST ITEM

(A "Bump" With Death)
"There are twelve of us in
here. Come and get us." These
words passed through a pipe
which was used to check escap-
ing gas in a fallen mine gave
vent to the feeling of the trapped
workers who had "bumped" with
death and seventeen hours later,
came up to tell the story. It
happened in a coal mining town
called Sprlnghlli. Nova Scotia. A
Cumberland mine entombed 174
victims in Its underground
death-grip embrace, and only 19
lived to court again.

The Springhlll mines had
taken lives before, but this was
the record smasher. The mines
give the Springhlll town Its
largest economical asset, but
bravery, pain, terror, and death
are the Interest charged for
services rendered.

POLITICS

The Democratic party poli-
ticians swept the country with
a victory broom in the 1958 elec-
tion. The Democrats increased
their numbers In many of the
political spheres. In Congress,
the Democrats increased their
roll in the House of Representa-
tives from 235 to 282; in the
Senate, from 49 to 62. The Demo-
crats added 15 State Legislative
Houses and gained 5 additional
governors totaling 34 state gov-
ernors.

A new personality emerged out
of the 19ba election. Republican
governor-elect of New York
atate, Nelson Rockefeller. Rocke-
feller is being assessd as the
possible 1960 presidential candi-
date of tlie party. Although he
has said that he does not choose
to become a candidate, the 51-
year-old governor is linked by
heritage with this great country
and may well find himself "top
man" in 1960.

GOVEKNMENT

The 1958 Red germ spreads
again. The Periscope watched
the Red germ contaminate the
Middle East and Asia. Now tlie
imperialistic disease is con-
centrated in Germany. However,
the man to watcli is Willy
Brandt, the Mayor of West
Berlin. Brandt who is a Socialist,
Is telling his people to stand
firm against the Red threat.
Russia's primary goal is to have
the Western powers recognize
East Germany as a world power.

The Periscope remembered the
last German crisis created by tlie
Russian blockade, but recent
firm offensive measures paid off
in the Quemoy crisis and the
same attitude can present itself
in the existing Berlin crisis in
Germany.

ENTERTAINMENT

The Periscope pays its respects
to a great actor and superb en-
tertainer. Tyrone Power. Ill, 44-
year-old American actor, died in
Spain from a lieart attack while
making a movie. The late Mr.
Power was given a military
funeral at Hollywood Memorial
Park Cemetery.

Student Opinions

By Sara A. Reynolds

Several Freshmen students
were interviewed for the purpose
of obtaining their general
opinions concerning the ques-
tion:

What Has Been Your Favor-
able Impression of Savannah
State College:

The opinions given reflect the
impressions of a few students
who are beginning their college
careers and will be expected to
assume future college responsi-
bilities.

The following are the students'
opinions:

"My most favorable impression
is the friendliness of the student
body and faculty members of
Savannah State College."

Irene E. Law

"My most favorable impression
about Savannah State College is
the fact that everyone seem to
be enjoying themselves, and
seem to be exhibiting much
friendliness toward each other."
Thelma M. Ready

"My most favorable impression
about S.S.C. has been tne warm
miurmaniy wnich exists between
faculty and students, and the
splenaid relationship which
exists among the students."

Annette C. Kennedy

"My most favorable impression
of aavannah State College has
been the part played by the
upper classmen and the mem-
bers of the faculty. They seem
to be interested in helping one
cnoose a vocation."

The Spot Light

By Ernestine Hill

This issue the Spot Light
focuses its attention on Sara
Reynolds. Sara is a native of
Atlanta. Georgia, a graduate of
Woodville High School, and is
now a Senior at Savannah State
College majoring in Business
Education and minoring in Ac-
counting.

Sara is associated with the
following organizations: Secre-
tary-Treasurer, Alpha Kappa Mu
Honor Sorority. Feature Editor,
Tiger's Roar student newspaper;
member Business Club; named in
Who's Who in American Colleges
and Universities.

Sara is noted for her willing-
ness to cooperate whenever a
worthy cause is being launched.
She is always reaching for those
qualities which exemplifies
character, scholarship and
achievement.

The Spot Light is happy to
add Sara Reynolds to its roster.

In every organized aspect of
hie. mere exists a form oi
discipnne. ine individuals
cnosen as the executors of this
aiseipline are selected according
to strict criteria. Sometimes
inese individuals are motivated
oy an uncontrollable lust tor
power, wnicn robs tliem of their
logic at certain intervals. Does
tins prove tnat tne person in-
voiveu or guilty of this act is
unrit to rule? No. not if ttie in-
dividual later realizes the
mistake made and compensates
lor It. Yes. if the person refuses
Lu einploy logic and adlieres to
tire conclusion that he was right
no matter what!

A man ceases to be a man
wnen in a situation he is found
to be wrong and refuses to ad-
mit and accept this proven fact.

Sometimes individuals suffer
needlessly because of pet peeves
or partial judgment on the part
of members of administering or
governing bodies. But fortunate-
ly, in a democracy, the govern-
ment gains its powers from tlie
consent of the governed. This
serves as counteraction for a
great many acts in addition to
the most cherished of all free-
doms, the freedom of speech.

The person guilty of malad-
ministration should not be
scorned or lianged in effigy, but
should be given understanding,
if the infraction is corrected. But
if not, each person involved
should join forces and through
the proper channels available
demand consideration and re-
sults.

Riots, unorganized strikes and
the like are products manufac-
tured by ignorant minds and
are not accepted in our society.
But organized protests are given
birth to by intelligence. To this
much allegiance is pledged.

If injustice is accepted in small
doses, these doses may soon in-
- crease and may later become tlie
rule rather than an exception
to the rule. When this occurs,
freedom is preparing for a
permanent vacation. This type
situation robs good, sweet life of
all of its great worth.

Hearts who refuse to accept
injustice in any form merit
praise.

Stumble Over Rearling
Roadblocks? Just Go
Around Tbein, Advises
Expert

Almost every student has suf-
fered through this experience:
you begin to read a text with
enthusiasm, hungry for enlight-
ment; after a few paragraphs-
you stop to look up an un-
familiar word in the dictionary,
then you check a footnote refer-
ence; then back to tire diction-
ary. After reading several pages
in this manner, you suddenly
realize that you have no idea of
the ground you've covered.

This, says a noted scholar in
the December Reader's Digest, is
exactly the wrong way to enjoy
or understand^reading. Says
Dr. Mortimer Adler: almost any
book intended for the genera i
reader can be understood if you
approach it in the right way
And the riglit way, he insists, i.>
to read a book through super-
ficially before you try to master
it.

Skip over the difficult parts;
read only what you can grasp
right away. Even if it's only 50
percent, chances are the light
thrown on the subject will lead
you back for a closer look.

In the article, "Hard Reading
Made Easy," Dr. Adler says tliat
most of us missed the joys of
Shakespeare's plays in high
school because we approached
them in too reverent a manner.
Teacher made us look up every
footnote, every archaic word. As
a result we struggled through
scene after scene of Macbeth,
Hamlet or Julius Caesar and
never realized what rattling good
melodramas they are.

Before you read any book, Dr.
Adler says, give it a fast once-
over. Look over the title page
and preface to learn the author's
approach and angle. Study the
table of contents, just as you
would a road-map before taking
a trip. Check the index for the
range of subjects covered. Look
up the phrases or chapters that
seem crucial. Thi^ may give you
the key to the entire book.

at our recent homecoming game.
They could be seen hi all of this

The line sepaarthig coats and

of the walking suit Is In heavy

Coat colors haven't been so
brilliant for years, and this

textiued fabrics of which mohiilr

svdted to the Intense tones. The
bright coal Is a fashion leader
too because It combines so ad-

memorable (special) black dress,
usually shown In silk crepe,
which Is just about the most
popular dress of 1958-59.

also one of the latest fashion

Book Revieiv

By Kay FrancLi Stripling
Patrick Dennl.s ha.s demon-
.;trated his boundle.s.s energy and
rare .style of writing In produc-
ing Around The World With
Auntie Mame, Mr. Dennis, a
native of Chicago is a world
traveller and has managed very
effectively to make history in
the realm of literature that
evokes laughter in the reader, in
his latest novel. This novel Is one
of three by Patrick Dennis that
has managed to be on the best-
.seller ll.st at this time.

The accounts of Auntie Mame
prove to be a successful attempt
at a variety of entertainment
Throughout the .story, there Is a
hilarious mood In which any-
thing may happen. This mood
has both suspense and comedy.
Auntie Mame. "The deliciously
derelict heroine," takes the
reader along on rousing ad-
ventures. Her life is vividly de-
pleted through her realistic per-
sonality, but her mind is closed
to the reader, because he never
knows what she might do next.

The plot Itself Is centered on
a phenomenally delightful travel.
Auntie Mame stars in the
"Follles-Bergere" in Paris In a
tangle of dog hair and monkey
fur; she attends the London
Royal Garden Party which turns
Into a fever-pitching panic that

throws her into the chivalrous
arms of an "honourable." She is
finally presented in court in a
"chiffon cumulus."

Auntie Mame Is the object of
fortune hunters because she is
rich. Therefore, in the headlines
appear the following :
EXTRA' MADCAP i MILLIONS I

MAME MISSING. KIDNAP
PLOT FEARED

Auntie Mame, whose name is
really Mame Beauregard Jackson
Pickett Burnside. was widowed
In her "salad days" and again
becomes Interested in family
affairs. Therefore, to Venice she
goes! She partys with German
Rabbis, French Cardinals and
Greek Poetesses.

Yes, Auntie Mame gets into
the Middle Eastern powder keg
too! However, she finally takes
the long voyage home. But, home
to what? Well, her nephew Mr.
Patrick Dennis is not with
Auntie Mame on this trip, and
he and his wife are at home
longing for their son Michael
who for two and one-half years
has been going around the world
with Auntie Mame. on perhaps
another equally hilarious trip.

In his tenth year, Michael is
returned to his parents by Auntie
Mame who reminds him, "there
are some things that parents
simply don't have to know." And
with a "Bientot good-bye my

little love, it has been a lovely
trip," she drives off in her Rolls
Royce.

The personalities of Auntie
Mame and Dennis are supported
by varied atmosphers of the
countries in which the hilarious
action takes place. Patrick
Dennis has used a mixture of
styles in writing, but the
colloquial style is prevalent with
its short terse sentences that are
direct and attention-compelling.
The dialect and mannerisms of
the foreign countries are in-
jected very effectively to make
the reading atmosphere more
meaningful, and students of
French and Spanish should en-
joy recalling their "grandes
dames." "grosso coltellos" and
even their "frauleins" (German)

If you enjoy reading sparkling
comedy, then read the ad-
ventures of this "madcap"
guardian which begin on the
Normandie bound for Paris, and
end up on an American man-of-
war in the middle of the Indian ,
Ocean.

Education Must Be

Geared to Serve Needs

East Lansing. Mich. (I.P.)
Two Michigan State University
educators recently agreed that
education must be geared to
serve the individual's and so-
ciety's needs, but it must also
take into account what both will
need in the future.

Dean Edward Carlin of Basic
College said that "curriculum
problems will be more pressing
in the future because of the
dramatic development of recent
yeai's." These, he said, are likely
to necessitate a synthesis of
knowledge on a higher order
than has ever been attained be-
fore.

The clearest forecast that can
be made, he added, is that higher
education will no longer be able
to educate as though American
culture can or will stand by
itself.

Carlin foresaw the need for
greater selectivity in curriculum
planning while Prof. Mayhew
pointed to the diversity of inter-
ests and needs which character-
izes our society. To meet these
needs, Mayhew said, certain
criteria must be met, among
them courses related to human
psychology and the laws of
learning and courses which are
relevant not only to the present,
but to the future.

Another criterion, Mayhew
said, was that skills learned in
one course should be transferable
to other human activities.

In a u n I q u o exprrimcnt
planned to help roilege stuciunts
now deciding about a year of
study abroad, 60 American stu-
dents of the Scandinavian
Seminar for Cultural Studies
met recently In Tranberg, Nor-
way, to add up and report re-
sults of their first five months
In Denmark, Norway a n d
Sweden.

Summed up, they say, "GO."
In the words of Seminar member
John M. Lovejoy. Bates College,
'58, "The electric atmosphere of
a new foreign land cannot help
but institute changes in one's
being. In this atmosphere,
maturity seems to charge along
in leaps and bounds. . . . The
whole situation has been an In-
valuable experience."

The program offered by Scan-
dinavian Seminar makes this re-
port worth attention.

Under the Seminar plan,
Americans become part of Scan-
dinavian life by living with two
families for a month each, then
spending six months at a "folke-
hojskole." These schools, with
their emphasis on humanities
and social science, have had a
profound effect on Scandinavia's
culture and politics and offer
Americans insights unattainable
any other way.

Students learn the language
chiefly the "natural way," by
living it. As Margaret Chase,
Anticch College junior, says,
"one of the most valuable ex-
periences to me has been being
unable to communicate in the
beginning , . , to be 21 with a
vocabulary of a 5-year-old."

Between family stays and
school, Scandinavian Seminar
students have "short courses"
for language instruction, and,
more important, for meeting
with leading national personali-
ties in the arts, history and cur-
rent affairs through lectures and
discussion.

Thinking aloud about this and
field trips she has managed,
Marcia Woodruff, Smith College,
'58, answered the question,
"What do you get out of a year
like this?" in this way:

"An understanding of a new
country and culture and there-
fore a chance to look at our own
from a new standpoint. For most
of us, a new appreciation of
America, But above all, a new
look at ourselves, by being forced
out of old living patterns, by
living for a time without a
language, by being forced to look
at things with other than our
own society's point of view."

SpealvH al Vesper

By Sherman Robenson

The Savannah State College
family held Its first Vesper
Service of the year on January
n, 1959, with the president. Dr.
W. K. Payne, as speaker.

Dr. Payne .spoke on the subject,
"The Lottery of Modern Living."
He cited many risks that are
prevalent in our modern way of
life.

Dr, Payne set forth various
devices that tend to decrease
the odds of modern living. He
stated that training received in
the home and formal education
reduce the risks encountered
during one's life span. Some of
the other device.s mentioned were
the abilities to tolerate, to stand
alone, and to think! Dr. Payne
stated, "Wherever the ability to
think has been developed, the
chances of success have been
heightened."

Selections were rendered by
the Savannah State Choral So-
ciety, under the direction of D.
C. A. Braithwaite, chairman of
the Fine Arts Department.

machines or instruments are properly balanced and set in relation
to the area in which they are to operate.

In society, the reooKnition of imbalance often runs far behind.
This situation creates many problems which make adjustment
difficult and in .some instances impossible. In our colleges and
universities, students are faced with problems of balance and ad-
justment in terms of training Attendinji college should mean that
students would be educated in many different areas to a certain
degree. Failure to receive training and development in a numhcr
of areas does result in improper balance. livery student attending
college should receive some (raining and development In social
living, participation in urouii affairs, appreciation of the arts, and
an understanding of the culture and the direction in which society
Is moving. The regular studies i)rovide only a basis for the larger
development wlilc ii comes tlirougli living and participation In the
entire college program.

To spend all cr the time in erne area at tho expense of neglect-
ing other vital and Important ureas Is a serious mistake. Fvcry
shident seeking lo obtain a well-rounded education needs first hand

ScholarMhipH Needed

At Private Collej^en

Convent Station, N. J. a.P.J
Failure of the state to provide
scholarship opportunity, or other
financial aid open to .students at
private colleges, makes mockery
of our boa.sted American free-
doms was charged here recently
by Sister Hlldegarde Marie,
president of the College of Saint
Ell/abeth.

She pointed to the great dis-
parity between tuition charges
at tax-supported and at private
Instltutlon.s and said that "every
effort should be made to avoid
increasing that disparity still
further if the American ideal of
freedom of educational oppor-
tunity Is not to be an illusion.

"It is a well-known fact,"
Sister Hlldegarde Marie observed,
"that many parents whose sons
and daughters attend tax-.sup-
ported Institutions are equally
as capable of paying tuition costs
as are parents of students at-
tending private colleges," thai
parents of many students In
private colleges "are in no better
financial position than parents
of students attending municipal
and state colleges." She asserted
that their choice of private col-
leges, especially church-related
colleges. Is based on principle.

She declared It "incredible"
that In New Jersey "no legisla-
tion has yet been adopted to pro-
vide scholarships with freedom
of choice of Institution, in order
that equity and distributive
justice may exist in provisions
adopted by the state for the edu-
cation of its people."

Increased appropriations for
facilities for public higher edu-
cation. Sister Hlldegarde Marie
declared, "should invariably be
accompanied by increased
scholarship opportunity or other
financial aid for children of tax-
payers who prefer to have their
sons a n d daughters attend
church-related or other private
institutions. Any other course
makes mockery of our boasted
American freedoms."

The report laid special
emphasis upon tlie mutual re-
lationships between the College
of Saint Elizabeth and outside
organizations, other institutions,
and the local community. Re-
ciprocal benefits derived from
these relationslilps were noted.

By Ernestine Hill
There is at least one in every
Freshman Class. You recognize
him lor her) in the very begin-
ning. He is active, makes him-
.self known from the start, is
exceptionally friendly in the
genuine sense of the word
friendly, and is talented, versa-
tile, and full of life.

The above paragraph describes
Georgia White, a native of
Macon, Georgia, and a graduate
of Ballad-Hudson High School,

Georgia has a warm and out-
going personality which has
made her an unusually popular
girl among the students of Sa-
vannah State College.

Her interests vary. She plans
to major in Physical Education.
She takes active part in many
extra - curricuiar activities.
Among them are: Physical Edu-
cation Club, the Creative Dance
Group, the Women's Ensemble.
the Drill Team, the Debating
Club, the Social Committee of
Camilla Hubert Hail, and the
Choral Society.

She was voted "Miss Camilla
Hubert Hall" of 1958-59 and
represented the girls of the
dormitory in the homecoming
parade.

In high school, Georgia won
first prize in Cosmetology in the
G.Y.I.E.A, She is not only a
trained beautician, but shows
originality in hair styling, Geor-
gia could have been practicing
in one of tlie exclusive shops in
Macon, but as slie stated. "I felt
that something was badly needed
in my life, and that only college
could fill the need. I certainly
haven't regretted coming."

Her hobbies are dancing, sing-
ing, speaking, reading, and hair
styling. Georgia can boast of
being the first Freshman to ap-
pear in this column. THE SPOT-
LIGHT is honored to cast its
rays upon her.

INTERN.ATIONAL EVENTS

Hero Liberates Cuba

Fidel Castro, bearded cigar-
smoking rebel leader, ended
Dictator Fulgencio Batista's ap-
parently iron-clad regime and
became "A Living Legend" as the
1959 year began.

The Periscope turns to another
revolutionary hero. Jose Marti,
who was killed in 1895 during
the Cuban-Spanish struggle. And
now 54 years later comes another
Cuban hero and liberator, Fidel
Castro. Carlo Prio Socarras was
ousted by Bastista and now
Bastista is replaced by Castro.

The question which tlie Peri-
scope asks land only time will
afford an answeri is what place
will the tough ex-lawyer take in
ruling the largest island in the
Caribbeans after the blood has
been cleaned from the streets,
and the people have gone back
to their respective ways of
living?

Castro is presently Commander
of the Armed Forces, and his
regime consists of the following:

Provisional President Manuel
Urrutia.

Premier Jose Miro Cardona.

Foreign Minister Roberto
Agramonte.

Minister of Interior Lewis
Orlando Rodriguez.

NATIONAL EVENTS

The President Speaks

President Eisenhower called
for a 77 billion dollar balanced
budget in his State of the Union
message. The President expects
a bright future for the American
economy, but he also warns that
"deficit spending" and the "wage
price spiral" invariably lead to
inflation.

About 60 per cent of the
budget will be consumed on
items that contribute to National
Security, The President also
frowned upon labor racketeer-
ing in the United States, and he
expressed his desire to formulate
a law that will halt the con-
tinuing use of organized labor
for selfish gains by a few of-
ficials.

The Republicans' New Year
Change

Joe Martin, House Minority
Leader and Chairman of the
House Republican Policy Com-
mittee, has been the Republican
Minority Leader since 1938, but
the New Year begins with Joe'S
defeat by Representative Charles
Halleck.

There is an age difference in
the two men, Halleck is 58 and
Martin 74, but the Periscope
viewed the last election when
the Republicans were defeated
all over the country. The Re-
publicans blamed the defeat on
"the popular image of standpat
Republicanism."

The Republicans saw the need
for a change, and Martin's de-
feat shows clearly that changes
are being made to destroy that
image which the public has
formed.

and beach party at the Condado

"Tile happy married man dies

Artemus Ward

"A wife is a man's best piece,
who till he marries, wants
mailing up; she is the shrine to
which nature doth send us forth
on pilgiimage: she is the good
man's paradise, and the bad's
first step to heaven, a treasure
which, who wants, cannot be
trusted to posterity, nor pay his
own debts; she's a golden sen-

the angels may discourse of, only
men know how to use, and none
but devils violate." Shirley.

I'rojier Breathing Is
Key to Better Health

People who sigh a lot may not
need cheering up as much as
they need breathing lessons, an
article in the March Reader's
Digest reveals. Says author W,
P. Knowtes: "Most of us are only
half-breathers. We breathe in
because we can't help it but we
fail to breathe out completely."

The sigh, he adds, is nature's
way of deflating our lungs when
we dont do the job properly
ourselves.

Breathing out fully does more
than clear the lungs. It helps
clear the mind and prepare the
body for strenuous action. Next
time you turn the shower faucet
to "cold," for example, try
breathing out in a steady breath.
You'll find the cold-water shock

The finals of the annual SEAC Conference were played at
Albany State College, Albany, Georgia, February li). 20 and 21. The
top teams In the SEAC (Jonfercncc were prcHcnL, Flr.st place
Savannah State Tigers shot their way to victory with wln,'^ over
Claflln Unlver.sliy and Albany State College,

In the opening giime of the .scmlflniU.s, the Tigers found the
Claflln five an easy foe, defeating them 01-78 and quaIll'.vlnK for
the finals. Ira Jackson lead the way with 20 points.

After .sweeping through the
semll'lnal.s, tlie Tlgern tackled
the ho.st team, Albany State, for
the title game, Thl.s wa.s a hard-
fought game all the way. Again
that ".sharp.shootlng" forward,
Ira Jack.son, was high Hcorer
with 25 polnt.s txH the Tigers de-
ff^atcd the Rani.s of Albany State
and captured the 1058-50 SEAC
crown. Willie Tate and Harlan
Lambert doubled for .second high
with 20 points each.

The Tigers defeated the fol-
lowing teams t(j remain In first
place and qualify for the SEAC
tournament.

In the Wiley Gymnasium,
January 31, they rolled to victory
with a 104-58 win over Edward-
Waters of JackHonvlUc, Fla., and
on February 7, they defeated
the mighty Rams of Albany
State College, 82-54. Then the
Tigers traveled to Augusta, Ga.,
where they defeated Paine Col-
lege on their own home court
by an extraordinary score of
114-75. In the non-Conference
bracket, the Tigers defeated the
powerful Norfolk State College

was all tied up with four seconds
left to play.

Yes, the Tigers really had a
fruitful season. They were the
first place team in the SEAC
Conference from start to finish.
The nicest part of it all is the
same team will be defending this
crown next year, because the
majority of the Tigers are fresh-
men and sophomores. The only
seniors are Captain Roland
James and Moses King.

Alvls a. Proctor, E, I. DuPont
df Nemours and Company r{'pre-
sentatlve, was guest .speaker at
a special assembly held W(;dn(:s-
day, February 11, in Meldrim
Auditorium of Savannah State
College.

Mr. Proctor, manager of the
Southern District of the DuPont
Company's Extension Division, is
an experienced public speaker
with a background of more than
17 years In education, retail
store management and Industry.
He spoke on the topic
"Progress Unlimited." He pointed
out that there had been more
material progress in the 20th
century than in all previous
history. He stated that progress
does not just occur, but It is
brought about by gifted, dedi-
cated Industrious people of that
type. Mr. Proctor posed the ques-
tion, "What nev/ element, then,
was added to provide this tre-
mendous surge during the 2Dth
century?" Answering this ques-
tion. Mr, Proctor contrasted the
trials and .sacrifices of yester-
day's lone wolf inventor with
the economic strength of to-
day's large corporation, which
enables them to bring together
teams of scientists, inventors
and technologists, to place them
in an environment of creativity,
to free them from economic
want and to put at their dis-
posal every device to bring their
projects to fruition. Mr, Proctor,
in conclusion, said. "We can en-
joy progress unlimited, so long
as we can preserve the freedom
of the individual, the freedom
of the team that pools the in-
dividual talents, and the free-
dom of the inventor to provide
the tools for the large and long-
term risks."

The Savannah State stu-
dents congratulate the
Tigers on winning
SEAC Conference.

A workl-fnmccl clicst .surgeon
makes ix Kilin prediction In the
Mnrch Roiider's Digest. Says Dr,
Alton Ochsncr: "Every heavy
smoker will develop lung cancer
unless heart disease or some
other sickness claims him first."
Of every lon persons who develop
the disease, only five will be
uUve five years later.

In an article condensed from
u publication of the American
Medical Association. Dr. Ochsner
tells author J. D. Ratcliff that
lung cancer's toll in the United
States has leaped from 2500 in
1930 to an estimated 35.000 last
year. Slgarette sales for the same
period rose in almost Idential
proportion.

No self - respecting gambler
would accept the odds thnt face
lung-cancer victims. Of every
hundred cases, 45 are so ravaged
by the time they see a doctor
that surgery Is a waste of time.
Another eleven die on the
operating table. Twelve more
have their chests closed without
further surgery after inspection
shows them to be hopeless; they
die within a few months.

The remaining 32 face one of
the most massive operations in
the usually delicate surgical
domain. Days of ain follow these
operations. Even worse, every
patient must endure at least
five years of agonized suspense
before he can be considered
cured. Only five of the original
100 victims survive these five
years.

The rapid growth of lung
cancer makes early discovery im-
perative. Every heavy smoker
over 40 owes himself the mini-
mum protection of having a
chest X-ray at least every six
months.

An Open Lftter

To the Ca.st of Antigone:

The pink, winking, blinking
sparkle of the jewels you pre-
.sentcd me ia.st week brought
bright ear.H to my eyes.

According to reports, Antigone
wa.s Kuccefisful. Few know how
much you went through to
achieve your wee moment of
glory and make ready an hour
of beauty for the devotees of
The.spls.

You yourselves do not know
the trepidation we felt when we
Hurveyed a cast Including seven
fre.shmen and we groaned. Oh,
Antifione! Why In the world a
SophocJcan tragedy? Why?
Why? And then came the in-
spiring words of Browning;
", , . a man's reach should ex-
reed his grasp. Or what's a
heaven for?"

And aspire you did all of you.
You Halmon, with your hint of
a lisp that almost disappeared
on the Big Night. You Ismene of
the soft sweet voice. They'll
never hear you In the last rows.
I shouted to you during the
mounting rehearsal. You Sentry,
girl who took on a man's role
at your own suggestion and did
It well. You Chorus, with whom
I fought nightly, and who never
acted badly toward me as I often
did toward you.

You Messenger, who rushed in
at the last minute and learned
your lines In the blinking of an
eyelash. You Tleresias. who made
me try the quavering voice
which gave me a sore throat for
days. Yet you did It night after
night. You. little Michael, boy of
Thebes who came to rehearsals
on time though you had only a
walk-on. You Creon. Ah, Creon,
from the first you had little need
of me (except for the r's), for
you were Creon.

And you. Antigone you of the
golden throat. I remember when
first I heard that haunting voice.
You were saying hello to another
student. I heard and was capti-
vated lor all time. Yes, Antigone,
you of the mellifluous tongue,
you made me weep at last as
you had promised.

You, O cast of Antigone, you
gave me jewels more sparkling
than any other that day I heard
the small son of my house rant-
ing: "Money! Money! There's
nothing In the world so demoral-
izing as money." The days when
students whom I had never seen
paused a moment to chat in-
telligently about Attic drama.
When Dr. McCuUough's students
showed Interest in the Oedipus
Rex, a movie done with the giant
masks and buskins of the old
Greek arena.

When the toreador fails to
waive the muleta. wlien the
arena-goers forget to shout Ole!
then shall I forget you and your
Antigone.

Only then, too, will I forget
the splendid cooperation we re-
ceived from all quarters of our
great College. Wherever we
asked, they helped. And some
came forward unasked, bearing
assistance as if it were a golden
chalice. Thanks to all of them.
And, above all, cast of Anti-
gone and everyone who stood
behind you, you kept the shining
faith our beloved president has
in you and in our College. You
and your fellow-students do not
realize, I sometimes think, how
deep and abiding is his faith in
you. Our students are as good as
students anywhere, he will say
often in a faculty meetmg. They
can achieve, he insists. And
sometimes we pedagogues half
smile, remembering the misspell-
ings and the errors in punctua-
tion. But you. cast of Antigone,
brought tangible, ineffaceable
evidence of his serene assurance
that we at Savannah State Col-
lege have great potential for
utmost growth and development.
And so, cast of Antigone,
thank you again for the jewels.
But you are my real jewels my

"Anti^oiir^^ Draws
Student Opinions

By Yvonne McGlockton

Recently. Antigone, a Greek
drama by Sophocles, was pre-
sented on this campus. To get
student reactions to the play the
following question was asked:
"What Is your general reaction
to the play. Antigone, that was
recently presented by the Col-
lege Playhouse?"

The following reactions were
received;

Lucille Lawton. .sophomore: "I
think the play was excellent, I
feel the students on this campus
.should be exposed to more ac-
tivities of that nature."

Benjamin Harris, senior: "I
think students really appreci-
ated the play."

Rosalyn Scurdy, junior: "I
thought that the costuming was
excellent and the characters
portrayed their parts very well."

Mamie Green, freshman : "I
think the performance was
spectacular. Even though it was
a tragedy. It had just enough
humor to make it realistic. I also
think that Creon's voice and
costume possessed a touch of
royalty."

Cynthia Toney. freshman: "All
of the characters were good and
Creon was especially good."

Mable Mcpherson, senior: "The
most inspiring thing to me was
the way that the characters
portrayed their parts. I think it
was terrific for amateurs."

Alvin Collins, senior: "I
thought it was the most colossal
play that has been presented
since I have been here. The
actors seemed very much at
ease."

Herbert Williams, senior: "I
like serious dramas. Therefore I
liked Antigone. I think that in
the future there should be a
variety of plays including all
types.

Harry Richardson, sophomore:
"The play was one of the best
I have ever seen. I like plays of
mixed emotions. I feel that that
kind of play should be con-
tinued,"

Winifred Hopkins, freshman:
"I think, on a whole, the play
was good. In some parts it was
very good and some of the actors
were marvelous. The actors who
especially appealed to me were
Creon. Antigone, and Heimon.

Margaret Dawson, sophomore:
"Well. I think it was very well
prepared and presented. I
especially enjoyed Eva Boseman.
who portrayed Antigone.' In my
estimation she did as well as
anyone could have done."

Nathaniel Brown, sophomore:
"I thought the play was very
good as well as educational. It
showed how sometimes power,
if used unwisely, can corrupt a
city."

Eleanor Johnson, sophomore;
"I think that it was nice in that
it was fostering the cultural
program that has been in-
stigated at this institution."

Mildred Gissentanner, junior:
"I am a lover of Greek drama.
The play was very enjoyable and
the performance was magnifi-
cent. The characters seemed
very relaxed and acquainted
with what they were doing. I
think there should be a repeat
performance."

Thomas J. Parlon, fresliman:
"It was pretty nice in my
opinion. I think it was enjoyed
by all who attended."

Dorothy Harden, freshman: "I

enjoyed the play. It brought out

the fact that it is not always

wise to judge people too quickly.

By James N. Nevels
"On Leave of Absence"

The place is Walter Reed Army
Medical Center, Washington,
D. C. The man is John Foster
Dulles. Secretary of State, and
the condition is cancer i located
somewhere in the lower ab-
domen).

For six years Mr. Dulles has
geared the United States' foreign
policy and is known as the most
traveled Secretary of State in
United States history.

John Foster Dulles was a
major in World War I, an in-
ternational lawyer during the
early twentieth century. United
States International Advisor
during the Truman Administra-
tion, and as Secretary of State
under the Eisenhower Adminis-
tration, he rates high on the list
of the world's dedicated states-
men.

Cancer is not a new enemy to
the Secretary, because he under-
went surgery in 1956, and now
his hope of recovery depends on
his bodily reaction to radiation
therapy. The disease is destroy-
ing his glandular tissues, and
his response to radiation treat-
ment is slow.

President Eisenhower has
asked for the nation's prayers
that recovery will come quickly
to the "traveling man," who is
now "on leave of absence."
The Berlin Crisis

Nikita S. Khrushchev plans to
transfer the Soviet's position as
joint occupiers of Berlin to the
East German regime, and the
United States and her allies are
planning a "Big Four" confer-
ence negotiation over Germany
reunification.

Moscow has set up a Pankow
puppet in Germany and has
transferred authority to the
Pankow regime. According to the
Soviets, by May 27 the West will
have to deal with the East Ger-
mans in transporting supplies
to and from Berlin. According
to the Soviets, a refusal may re-
sult in a world war.

The Soviets plan to dissolve
the postwar agreement, whicli
gave the United States. France
and Great Britain the right to
occupy Berlin. Now. Moscow has
issued a formula demanding the
allies to withdraw their forces.

The aim of the United States
and her allies is to unite the
split Berlin territory by negoti-
ation on a "Big Four" level for
reunification.

A Labor Threat

The Kennedy-Ervin Bill and
the Administration Bill are the
only serious attacks against
Labor since the Taft-Hartley Act
of 1947. The bills attack un-
curbed union power. However,
the Kennedy-Ervin Bill tends to
increase the power of unions and
their supervisors. One provision
to the bill increases union power
over a larger number of super-
visors and places more power in
the National Labor Board.

The Administration Bill has a
provision which attacks "black-
mail" picketing. "Blackmail"
picketing is picketing by those
people representing neither the
striking union nor the manage-
ment suffering the strike.

Periscoping the Business World

The industrial unions are
losing their membership volun-
tarily while the craft unions are
apparently in good shape. The
United Automobile Workers have
dropped over 100 paid staff

National Sports Talk

The biggest star of the 1959
track season so far has been
young John Thomas of Boston
University, who has twice
jumped seven feet indoors. This
is comparable to a three and
one-half minute mile or a nine
second hundred yard dash. .
The longer Wilt Chambcrhiin
plays basketball with the Harlem
Globetrotters, the better he likes
it. It has been said that he might
stick with the Trotters for a
while. . . . Lightweight champion
Joe Brown regained his crown
when he outpointed Johnny
Busso, who upset him earlier hi
a non-title bout. . . . Jimmy
Brown, one of professional foot-
ball's all-time stars and an All
American at Syracuse University,
has jointed the Pepsi-Cola Com-
pany marketing staff. ... It has
been predicted that Sugar Ray
Robinson and Archie Moore will
be matched in a bout for the
light-heavy title, and a further
prediction is that Robinson will
win and become one of the few
fighters to hold three world
titles. . . . While on the subject
of boxing. Heavyweight Cham-
pion Floyd Patterson has signed
to defend his title against
Ingermar Johanssen of Sweden.
. . . The baseball fever is 1-iere
and the spring training camps
are opening, Willie Mays signed
a contract that is reported to
be near $80,000. Other players
that received increased salaries
include Ernie Banks, Elston
Howard, and Minnie Minoso. . . .
The Lost Angeles Rams traded
eight players for OIlie Matson.
This was the biggest single trade
in football history.

Pointing out that New Haven
College has a curriculum which
reflects probably more than most
community colleges in the nation
the growing "frontier of com-
munity education." President
Marvin K. Peterson stated here
recently that "our curriculum
for the spring term of 1959 is one
that couldn't possibly have been
envisaged by the men who
founded our college just 38 years
ago."

He cited new courses being
offered for the first time this
spring by the college, such as
one in nuclear metallurgy,
another in scientific illumina-
tion, the two transistor courses
already being given both in new
Haven and in Ridgefield. a tele-
vision techniques workshop, and
others.

Community colleges across the
nation, he said, are faced with
a growing need to expand their
curricula to provide education to
adults as well as the young.

Jinunie spoke on tlie topic,
"Youth Wins Its Way." She set
tortli the proposition that one
of the faults attributed to ll\c
youths is falUu-e to acknowledge
previous mistakes, According to
Jimmic, two wrongs do not make
a right. She presented example
to support the idea that If youth
refuses to acknowledge previous
mistakes and falls to correct
them. It is then making another.

"Youth supposes, age knows,"
said the student speaker, and
the modern versions. "Young
men think old men are fools, but
old men know young men are
fools."

In conclusion, she asked her
audience to ask themselves,
"Where are we going?" Also to
consider whetlier or not what
they are pursuing is really what
they want. She asked that all
should remember the import-
ance of youth in relation to the
home, the school, the church,
the community, the nation and
the world.

The speaker stated: "Youth

but not to stay."

A solo entitled "My Task." was

Antifione Proves

To Be Most Interesting

By Mamie E. Greene

Antigone, the slow - moving
drama of Sophocles, proved to be
most interesting in both forms:
reading and viewing. The actors,
in the dramatization, so vividly
portrayed their roles that I could
not help appreciating it more
than I did the reading. Creon's
costume added such a regal air
to his portrayal, and his voice
had a touch of royalty.

Each actor possessed dis-
cernible characteristics. In Creon,
I saw greed, arrogance, and un-
yielding determination. Even
when he knew lie was wrong,
his pride would not allow liim to
retract his vow. He felt that his
being king made him omnipotent
and his decisions were not to be
questioned.

Antigone depicted courage,
faith, and determination. She
felt that it was the will of the
gcds to have her brother buried,
so she defied the king. She nobly
confessed her deed, and bravely
she accepted the death penalty.

Haimon loved his father, but
his love for Antigone was
greater; so he tactfully asked his
father to release Antigone. When
he realized that his talk was use-
less, he pierced his side; and
with his dying strength, he
gathered Antigone close to him.

Ismene was meek and a bit
pretentious. She tried to talk
Antigone out of burying Poly-
nei:;es. When Antigone was sen-
tenced, Ismene, out of duty or
the fear of being alone, offered
to join lier sister in her death;
but Antigone nobly rejected her
offer. Ismene accepted the re-
jection with what I believe was
a feeling of relief.

Though Euridice appeared only
once, she seemed to be meek and
dominated. Rather than trying
to talk with her husband, she
submitted herself to death.

The other characters were
rather wise, but fearful. They
knew Creon was wrong, but they
waited too late to express them-
selves.

The play was well-cast, and I
commend Mrs. Upshur, Mr. Holt,
and all who made the produc-
tion a remarkable one. I shall
long remember both forms of the
play: for although it was tragic,
there was just enough humor to
make it realistic. The perform-
ance was really spectacular.

THE TIGER-S ROAR

Preview of
Spr

mg Fashions

By Toledo Riley

If you know your own mind
and like to express it in the way
you dress, take a few tips from
this forecast for Easter;

For milady, the excitingly
fresh, and deliciously new styles
are the beautiful pastel colors
of mint green, pink, plum-
purple, antigria white, orange,
melon, turquoise and peacock
blue.

Slim sheaths, alone or jacket-
topped, for two completely
different looks: or the smart
new. and above all. three-piece
costume suit with a cropped
jacket, slim skirt, and a printed
blouse, which peeps out from
under the cropped jacket, are
the leading fashion columns
from Paris to America.

To top off these enticing out-
fits are hats In all variations
the little draped affairs, big
combinations, flowers, fruits,
overlays of chiffon, and the
simple straw brims.

If you are one for having the
feet in the open, this is the
spring for it! Wear a little less
shoe with a lot more glamor.
Wear shoes that are closed at the
tos. but open any-and-every-
where else. These designs are
the newest thing in shoes since
pointed toes. The shades are
plum-purple calf. pink, melon,
grapefruit, bone, peacock blue,
and the ever-popular black
patent.

The new look for the gents is
th^ "Continental Look." The
coats are cut higher and rounded
just below the waistline. The
pants are worn shorter than the
regular length. Although the
continental look is new, nothing
can replace the dominant "Ivy
League" with those neat Stacy-
Adams shoes to correspond with
the suit.

Proper Breathing Is

(ConliniK/d from I'aee 1)

far less chilling than usual. The
strain of any difficult job can
be minimized by breathing out
slowly and fully before you start.
It can also insure your staying
awake in church.

Proper exhaling requires prac-
tice, the Digest article says. One
of the best ways to establish the
habit involves reading aloud. Try
reading a favorite story, count-
ing the words you can say in one
breath. Tomorrow try to increase
the amount. After several days
you may double your count.

Another good exercise is
counting alound. Breathe in
gently to the count of four.
Pause a second and then exhale
to the count of twelve. Next time
breathe in to the count of five.
exhale to fifteen. As the count
gets longer, try humming as you
exhale. This will help you con-
trol the amount of air you expel.

By making controlled breath-
ing a habit, says Knowles, we
can increase our awareness, im-
prove our posture and enlarge
our body capacity.

The article. "Do You Really
Know How to Breathe?" is con-
densed from Todays Living, the
Sunday supplement of the New
Yoi-k Herald Tribune.

for poetic enjoyment. I especially
liked James Nevels as Creon."

Annie Owens, senior: "I think
it was masterfully done. It
seemed so realistic."

Juanita Baker, senior: "I think
it was very good."

Joe Sv;eet, senior: "I think the
student body understood and
appreciated the play."

From the various opinions re-
ceived, I think that we should
take our hats off to the play-
house for a splendid perform-
ance that was enjoyed by every-
one.

New Library To House 60.000 Volumes

By Sherman Roberson
The half milUon dollar library that is under construotlon on the
Savannah State College campus is rapidly nearing completion This
modern structure will house some 60.000 volumes, representlnK all
areas of study and research.

Among the new books to be
added to the library are several
of the most recent acquisitions
in science. Earth Satellites by
Patrick Moore. The desire to set
up artificial moons to circle the
earth is no longer a product of
the imagination. And now that
the launching of such bodies is
actually taking place, it is
dominating much public con-
cern and attention. Although
much technical information is
available on this subject, the
non-specialist reader often finds
that it Is beyond his compre-
hension.

Here. Moore has attempted to
give a general view of what is
taking place so that after read-
ing his work, the interested on-
looker win find it easier to un-
derstand technical expositions.
Brighter Than A Thousand
Moons, by Robert Jungk, This
work Is a personal history of
atomic scientist based on con-
versations with the chief partici-
pants from Poland, Germany to
Australia and Japan, and on a
collection of American official
documents and transcripts.
Atoms and People, by Ralph E.

Lapp. This Is the work of an
atomic scientist who speaks of
the outstanding events and
personalities of atomic history in
this non-technical account for
the layman. Eisenhower's ntoms-
for-peace proposal, the perils of
nuclear warfare and the gradual
slowing down of the atomic race
by means of international con-
trol are all discussed.

.-Vtoms At Your Servieo, by
Henry A. Dunlap. In this book,
an attempt has been made to
present the basic Information
about the atom: What It Is and
how It act.s in the liberation of
energy. The author Includes the
story of the Atomic Energy Com-
mission, the role of Congress, the
role of private industry and also
the International aspects of his
subject. Guided Weapons, by
Srlc Burgess. Here, the author
has attempted to Introduce the
reader to fundamentals, both
historical and technical, on
which guided mi.ssles are based.

This is only one of tlie many
ways that Savannah State Col-

Laramie, Wyo. (LP.) The rule
passed last year by the Univer-
sity of Wyoming's Faculty Social
C m m 1 1 1 e prohibiting off-
campus "atmosphere" dances
has been amended, according to
an announcement by Dean of
Women E. laiella GalUver, con\-
mlttee chairman.

The new ruling states "atmos-
phere dances are to be cleared
by the social committees (both
student and faculty) two weeks
before the dance is to be held
and, whenever possible, they are
to be held In the chapter
houses." The social committees
and the Inter-fraternity Council
both feel this new ruling is much
better than the previous one
which stated that atmosphere
dances were to be held in
chapter houses, commented
Dean GalUver.

"The first ruling was also
rather ambiguous when it stated
that the dances had to have
special clearance by the social
committees. In the latest reso-
lution, the social committees
are defined both student and
faculty." she stated. Upon re-
ceipt of the petitions from the
fraternities, Dean Galliver will
mail copies of the faculty and
student members of the commit-
tee for their approval or dis-
approval.

"Sickle Cell Anemia"

The Gamma Upsilon Chapter
of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority.

discussion on "Sickle Cell
Anemia" during an all-college
assembly in April, with Dr. S.
M. McDew, Jr.. college physician
as its consultant and the follow-

as panlist: H a 1 1 i e Burton,
Junior; Minnie R. Smith, Sopho-
more; Lois Walker. Junior; Joyce
Griffith, Sophomore; and Soror
Kay Frances Stripling served as
moderator.

Dr. McDew stated that the
symtoms of this dread disease,
discovered in 1910 by a Dr.
Herring and pointed out that a
lack of knowledge of this disease
has hindered medical science in
its efforts to obtain a cure for
sickle cell anemia.

He entertained questions from
panelists as well as the audience
and suggested that an annual
checkup is a must, for it is
highly possible that one may
contract this disease without
knowledge of it.

Dr. McDew praised the chapter
for attempting to avoid the Sa-
vannah State College family
with information concerning

sickle cell anemia.

Ex-Senator''s Advice:

"Be Your Own Boss!''

If you're contemplating a busi-
ness career, a former U. S.
Senator has some advice for you.
Writing in the May Reader's
Digest, William Benton, former
Senator from Connecticut and
publisher of Encyclopedia
Britannica, urges: "Young Man,
Be Your Own Boss!"

In his article of that title,
Benton asserts that too many
young men drift into big-cor-
pcration jobs for the wrong rea-
sons. Big business has fame and
prestige: it requires little effort

Presidents Message

Dui-lnc the twentieth century In the Wentc^rn world man has
learned to nuiUe an unusual variety of almost everything needed
and used Tliere are many brand-named products and many prod-
ucts which appear very similar to the lirand named. In almo.st
every Instance, one Is able to find several lU'ades of the same item
which on I he surface seem to be alike. The concept of quality In
these Itttms Is almve all thhiKs. very ha'/,y. Too often the Keneral
liubllc Is unnware of the fact that there Is any difference in
duality, Unloitunately, this ha/y concept of (luallty has been
carried t)ver Into education. One often thinks that elementary
school r!(lueatlon. hl^h school education, and college education
nuMin the sunu^ respectively everywhere. Tlie stress of our time
niid the problems which we face are bettlnnlni,' to reveal that all
urade levels hi our educational .system are not of equal quality.
Our (tfl'ort to provide edueatlon for all has not been accompanied
by similar eflort to provide (|uallty In whatever education offered
at the resjieetlve hwels.

The hnprovenient of the quality of education In our colleges
may well I)e one of the major objectives for the colleRc faculties
and the collei'.e student bodies. The quality of Instruction and
learnlni^ is deti'rmhu'd by both ti;ucher and student. Teachers who
provide lnstnu:tl(tM that Is aimless or .short-slKhted may merely
add to the eonlusUni that exists as to the quality of edueatlon
iK'ini; iirovlded. Students who nudte haphazard preparations, who
inaUe studylni.' and learnlni: a matter of routine fall to reach a
point where their abililies are strenBthoncd and extended. The
iiuullly itl edueatlon which a student Rets for himself, to a large
{-xlent, will be determined by his own efforts In almost every case
Ivrcspecllve nl' Ihe ecan-se grades which the student receives, The
quality ol learnlnu can be Improved two or three times beyond
the present i;rade obtained by the students. Students who iire
Interested In the quality of their education may try an experiment
for one quarter, Such experimentation would reveal some of the
deeper nicanlniis of quality In learning and education.

By Loretta Hagln.s
Rev. A. E. Peacock. College

vention, March 29, 1059 before
leavlnii for the College Ministers
Conference In Pittsburgh, Penn-
sylvania.

Four Siiuplr Hiilcs ('an Improve
Your IMnuory lor INainos aiul Faces

with four simple rules, you can train yourself to become
virtually Infallible at remembering names, says an article In the
April Reader's Dlyiest.

Author Frederic Sondevn, Jr., points out that forgetting names
can cause more than temporary embarrassment; It may cost you a
pleasant friendship or n profitable business contact.
Politicians, businessmen and

others in public life recognize
this fact and work at the b\isl-
ncss of renuMuberlng names.
General Elsenhower once im-
pressed a group of French mili-
tary leaders by remembering
their names even though he had
met them only (Icctlngly years
before. Former Democratic Na-
tional Chairman James Farley
has estimated that he has In his
mind the names, faces and back-
grounds of 20.000 people. Former
President Harry Trunian. F.B,I.
Director J. Edgar Hoover and
hotelman Conrad Hilton are
others whose ability to remem-
ber names has been an im-
portant factor in their success.

The four rules for remember-
ing were formulated years ago
by Dale Carnegie. They are
based on his belief that ac-
curate memories are not neces-
sarily gifts, but can be taught
just like other skills. The rules
are:

Get the Name Clearly When
You Are Introduced. If the name
ii not clear, ask the introducee
to repeat it. But don't ever ask
a third party present he may
not know it himself.

Give the Name a Chance to
Sink Into Your Mind. The best

way to do this Is to repeat It a
few times in the ensuing con-
versation.

Learn the Face While You
Are Learning the Name. Look
at the face, the posture, any
distinguishing marks. Learning
to associate names and faces will
make remembering easier.

Try to Make a Mental Picture
to Cement Name and Face To-
gether. The author says one of
his favorite ways of doing this
is by making up a rhyme about
the person. For example: "Mrs.
Parnum should be with
Barnum." It may not be true,
but It will cement Mrs, Farnum's
name and face In your mind.

Another way Is to create a
picture of the person doing
something associated with his
n a m e. Mr. Hamilton, for
example, could be pictured as a
human head with a ham's body,
weighing one ton.

Learning these mental tricks,
says Sondern. can be much more
than a pleasant way to improve
your mind. It can pay dividends
in terms of improved business
and personal relationships.

The article, "You Can Remem-
ber Names," is condensed from
Christian Herald.

The former Margaret Moore

March 21, 1959. Mrs. Miles, an

Dear Students:

Beauty means one thing to
some, and another to others, but
any one of us experiencing that
which to him is beautiful must
therefore pause an give respect
to it. Sometimes a blush on a
co-ed's cheeks creates beauty,
or the green grass upon which
she is standing, then perhaps.
it is the gray wavy moss sus-
pended above her head. Yet. it
could be the vegetable giants
enfolding their leafy arms to-
war dthe heavens, giving rever-
ence to God. and providing
shady shadows around which
she moves.

Beauty has its special seasons,
which create different attitudes
and feelings- However, that
beauty which is attainable with
the summer months is striking
enough for us to pause, and to
respect. Therefore, let us not
take it for granted for fear it
may disappear. Let us use it for
fear it may become angry and
tiun hidious in spite to our un-
attamted attitude. Let us keep it
clean for fear it becomes marred
in ugly retribution.

There is nothing more beau-
tiful than Clean-Observed, and
Revered beauty.

Yours truly.

to be a small cog in a big wheel;
and it's easy to find a safe
corner where there are few
risks.

"I have found young men
everywhere displaying a degree
of timidity that would have lost
this country to the Indians not
so many decades ago." he says.

He points out that it was not
big business, but small, inde-
pendent businesses that built
this country's wealth. If growth
is to continue, such competitive
businesses must also continue to
grow.

Most people agree that men
who have started businesses of
their own are the most success-
ful. The risks are greater, but so
are the rewards. A small busi-
nessman can concentrate on
building up his business rather
than himself. He isn't limited by
the slogan, "Don't rock the
boat." which is so often an un-
spoken rule of big corporations.

Even more important is this
fact: if a young man has the
ability to make money, chances
are he'll make more on his own.
As his own employer, he gets the
employers cut.

-Even failing in business can
be a valuable experience. Many
young men have learned enough
from their failures to succeed in
a second or third try. And they
have a pride in their own busi-
ness that few corporations can
match.

The Berlin Issues

The question that is most im-
portant in the minds of the
American people today, because
of the serious consequences in-
volved if the answer should be
positive or negative is. "Should
the United States forces stay in
Berlin?"

There seem to be two alterna-
tives; knuckling under the Com-
munists threats, or risking an
all-out war. Both alternatives do
not offer a future stable
America. However. Eisenhower
has indicated firmness on stand-
ing pat in Berlin. According to
the President, if the alternative
is war, then it will be a nuclear
war. However, the President is
optimistic that the Russians do
not want to fight about Berlin,
and certainly all efforts will be
taken to avoid a possible World
War III.

Experts in a recent survey,
asked the American public how
it felt about the issues involved.
The comments indicated that
the man-on-the-street would
rather risk a nuclear war. than
lose face in the Berlin situation
by retreating under the rant of
Khrushchev's threats.

Can We Stop Breathing
and Live?

The man-on-the-street is ap-
palled at the recent reports con-
cerning the increased amount of
strontium 90 in the atmosphere.
However, the Atomic Energy
Commission stated that radio
activity is still far below the
danger level, but the uncertainty
and doubt is mounting up. and
President Eisenhower has agreed
to disclose all facts regarding
radiation. Also. Representative
Chet Hatfield (California), head
of the Joint Congressional sub-
committee on radiation, has
decided to have a full-scale fall-
out investigation.

Radioactive strontium 90 is
deadly, and a .small amount con-
centrated in a single area may
kill or produce other hazards in
the form of cancer, tumor, and
lukemeia.

The Old Man Steps Down

The election year is 1961, and
after expressing his desire to run
a fourth time for Chancellor.
Konrad, A<^nauer. 83-year-old
builder of Germany from her
post-war ruins, has decided to
relinquish his previous desire
and accept the presidential post.

The Chancellor has promised
his alhes that the present Ger-
man policy will remain the
same. "A long period of uncer-
tainty is ahead," stated
Adenauer, referring to the sum-
mit meeting planned for the
summer.

The big question is therefore,
"Who will take the lead in weld-
ing Western unity and standing
up to Russia, while standing up
for peace?"

How to Find the
Right Eniployment

Three points to consider in
finding the right job are dis-
cussed by Adele Lewis, president
of the Career Blazers Agency. 5
West 46th Street. N. Y. C. and of
the Adele Lewis Agency. 35 West
43rd Street, NY. C.

1. WHAT KIND OF JOB DO
YOU WANT

The ideal job for you is one in
which your special skills are used
in the field of your special in-
terests. Now that graduation
time is approaching, the serious
considerations of finding the
proper work become more press-
ing.

If you've majored in chemistry,
physics, teaching, nursing or
some other technical or pro-
fessional field, the choice Is pre-
determined. You simply take the
best offer in your field. But. if
you're among those who have
received a Liberal Arts education,
your entry into the job world
becomes more complex.

If fashion is your forte, do
your abilities lie in the direction
of design? sales? modeling?
textiles? If words are your
medium, do you lean to writing
fact? fiction? ad copy? TV
scripts? Do you have the type of
mind that automatically cata-
logues and organizes? Do you
prefer working with people, or
are you at your happiest In
lonely, responsible surroundings?

The first analysis of your
abilities must be your own. Your
parents, teachers, studivnt coun-
selors, even your friends can help
by frank discussion of the
qualifications you have to offer.
A competent career consultant
can confirm or re-direct your
own thinking and reconcile the
qualities which you have for sale
with the market for your serv-
ices. But first in importance Is
establishing the objective. Aided
by whatever assistance is avail-
able to you, you must determine
the most practical compromise
between your wishes, your abili-
ties and the available opportuni-
ties.

2, HOW CAN YOU FIND THE
JOB

After this intensive self-
analysis, your next step is to
find the job that Is most suit-
able to you. Let us warn you.
however, that flexibility on your
part is essential in the locating
of the right job. You may have
decided that you can only be an
editorial assistant, for example,
but with your background, it
may also be possible for you to
become a writer in publicity, a
researcher or some other allied
specialization.

Getting the job Involves con-
tact with someone who has use
for your services either directly
or through the use of an inter-
mediary.

Aside from the "friend of the
family" approach, direct contact
with an employer can be made
most readily through the "help
wanted" columns of your morn-
ing newspaper. Here are listed
specific job openings, containing
either a telephone number, an
address or a box number. Should
you find in these columns a list-
ing of an attractive job for
which you feel your are fitted,
It is well to answer without de-
lay. Such jobs are usually avail-
able on the day on which they
are advertised. The employer Is
anxious to fill them promptly
and the number of replies he re-
ceives will most likely enable
him to fill the job without
referring to the applications of
latecomers.

The intermediate approach
may be made by your college
placement bureau, by a state-
operated bureau isuch as U.S.
E.S.) or through the services of
a commercial career consultant.
In general, the difference in
function between the first two
and the latter is the viewpoint
of their approach.

An additional source may be

found with the private employ-
ment agency. A private employ-
ment agency screens the abilities
and requirements of the ap-
plicants and suggests various
job opportunities commensurate
with the applicant's abilities.
The employment consultant has
a wide range of jobs listed with
New York business firms and
works to find the Job to fit the
applicant.

To help you In your own de-
cision. It might be wise to con-
duct a small survey of your
own. after surveying all the
sources that are available to you,
A little research can go a long
way. Chat with recruiting of-
ficials of visiting companies: use
your college placement and guid-
ance counselors for job Informa-
tion; make a study of the want
ads in large city newspapers,
especially those listed under
"college graduate"; visit with
some private employment
agencies to determine their Ideas
on the possibility of placement
for you. When you have done all
of this, chances are that you
will begin to understand where
you may best be suited, and most
important, what is available on
the market that will give you
the greatest scope.

3. WHICH JOB WILL YOU
CHOOSE

If you are In the position of
choosing bteween two or more
jobs, the selection may not be a
simple one. And there again your
career consultant can be of
service to you.

Considerations that now seem
of minor importance may loom
larger as your search continues.
Unless finances are of pressing
and Immediate importance, the
serious career seeker will rate
starting salary as only one of
the considerations affecting the
choice. Finding a situation with
an employer whom you can like
an drespect and which offers
the incentive of expanding op-
portunity, will contribute more
to your continued satisfaction
than the minor difference be-
tween two starting salaries.

Smce each Individual assigns
differing relative importance to
specific circumstances, it Is
difficult to place the right value
on which factors will prove im-
portant as your career works
out. Physical surroundings, con-
g.^nlal associates and the pres-
ence or absence of routine in
your assignments must all be
carefully weighed if a choice Is
offered you.

Many factors enter Into the
job decision. Sometimes you
know which job is right for you.
Other times you weigh such
essentials as salary, working for
a large or small organization,
social contacts, travel conven-
ience, unforeseen demands on
your time. When these problems
arise, your consultant can prob-
ably provide simple and direct
guidance, for chances are, he
has worked with these firms
previously and can shed some
kind of knowledge on your
future role as an employee.

Lastly, the finding of a job is
a unique experience for you.
Others' experience may be help-
ful and may be influential, but
it is absolutely essential to bear
in mind continually that your
getting a job depends on what
you have to offer. We have run
into the problem of "wanting a
job exactly like that of a friend."
Remember, you are not your
friend. His or her quahflcatlons,
aptitudes, rapport with people
may be entirely different from
yours. Be aware that there Is
that tiny factor of personal
chemistry that is sometimes the
deciding factor. And to enhance
that personal chemistry. It is
imperative that you look your
best, dress your best (simple-
wali-tailored clothes i and ap-
proach a job with an humility
and a willingness to learn what
you can gain, and an xinder-
standing of what you have to
give.

The United States National
Student Association announces
the publication of the eleventh
edition of "Work, Study, Travel
Abroad." a comprehensive guide
to student travel. The CHRIS-
TIAN SCIENCE MONITOR had
this to say about the 1958
edition:

"The publication is so useful,
so comprehensive that all col-
lege students and teachers In-
terested in an overseas experi-
ence this summer or any time
would do well to secure a copy."

"Work, Study, Travel Abroad"
is divided into the three main
classifications of work, study
and travel. Subdivisions of the
travel section deal with tour
selection, advantages and dis-
advantages of tour travel as
opposed to Independent travel, a
currency conversion table, pass-
port data, clothing hints, trans-
portation material, a listing of
Inexpensive student hostels and
restaurants, and a listing of
festivals and special events In
Europe in 1959.

Under the study section, the
reader will find material on
summer sessions at European
universities, seminars, work-
shops, scolarshlps, and awards
for study abroad, Junior Year
Abroad programs, etc. Organiza-
tions sponsoring scholarships are
also listed, and descriptive In-
formation concerning several
scholarships is given.

The Work section discusses
prospects of American students
for obtaining summer or perma-
nent employment abroad, the
restrictions Involved. the
swindles and rackets to avoid,
and all necessary information
for the student who Is looking
for an exciting job abroad, A
listing of work camps and
voluntary work projects Is also
given.

A special feature of this year's
book is a survey made by the
Maxwell School of Public Affairs
of Syracuse University, dealing
with the much neglected topic
of the preparedness of the stu-
dent traveler for his or her Euro-
pean experience.

coffee has become a bu.slneas of
about half ii billion dollars a
year and now aecuunts for one
firth to one third of all corfee
drunk In America,

"Never has a new food prod-
uct risen .so fast to such success
us has Instant coffee In the last
decade," writes Robert Froman
In an April Reader's Digest
article, "Coffee, This Instant
Upstart."

"And never," says the writer,
"has such a Huecessful product
bovn so looked down on, even
by .some of those who use It."
Some pL'oi)le say they u.se It
themselves because of Us con-
venience but would never dream
of serving It to guests. Though
all of today's major brands of
Instant are pure coffee, many
believe It contains other In-
gredients that affect Its taste.

In 1938 Instant coffee was little
more than a curiosity, Froman
recalls. Following its wide use
by the armed forces during
World War II, It slowly caught
on at home. In 1948 we used
about 70 million pounds of coffee
In thLs form, five percent of our
total coffee consumption. Since
then Instant sales have zoomed
to some 500 million pounds In
1958.

Many Instant fans Insist that
making It a potful at a time Is
the secret of getting the best
flavor. Others claim It should
be made double strength, or that
honey Instead of sugar should
be used for sweetening. Froman
quoted Prince Talleyrand's
famous recipe for coffee "black

an angel, sweet as love."

Watch Out For
Th<* r*ink Slips

Have you received a pink slip?

Do not feel a.Hhamed If your
returned examination paper, or
written as-ilgnment ha.s a beau-
tiful pink .slip attached to it.
The .slip explains itself. It means
that you have neglected your
correct English. Whether It be
Science. History, Music or other
fields, written a.ssignments em-
ploy words, and words are the
basic elements of English. Yet,
that Is not enough. It must be
correct English.

It Is the responsibility of the
Committee on Collegc-Wlde Im-
provement of English to make
students aware of their constant
errors In English through the
process of speaking and writing.
The Committee therefore, has
made arrangements with the in-
structors to watch for those
errors, and point them out with
the use of the pink .slip method.

Other English improvement
methods will be presented by
the Committee. "We must em-
ploy preventive measures rather
than remedial ones," stated the
Committee, under the chairman-
ship of Dr. N, V, McCullough,
English Department head.

Students Enjoy
Fine Film Series

Androcles and the Lion, the
first film In the series, was
shown March 3. 1959. The crowd
was not large, but all who at-
tended enjoyed the marvelous
production. News got around
about the enjoyable movie, and,
as a result, more students were
present to see the second of the
series, The Scarlet Letter. This
time the crowd was favorable.

Several students were asked
how they enjoyed the two films,
and the response was. "I liked
both, but I liked The Scarlet
Letter more." They also agreed
that the series should be con-
tinued.

One student, who saw only
The Scarlet Letter, remarked.
"Such projects as the fine film
series should continue because
they enhance our cultural de-
velopment."

Another student remarked, "I
enjoyed both films and I intend
to see everyone which is pre-
sented. I am sorry so many stu-
dents missed the first two. but
I hope they will see the remain-
ing ones. Such films are really
assets; they are quite helpful in
our humanities classes,"

Winner of Professor's
Contest Announced

Robert H. MacDonald. a senior
English major at New York Uni-

S500 prize in Abelard-Schuman's
college essay contest. Runner-up
is Miles H. Everett, of the Uni-

The contest was designed to

Williams takes his colleagues to

floliil" concerts scheduled, But
when their flr.st Impromptu song
delivered In a Leningrad hotel
- met with enthusiasm from the
Russian llshMiors, they know
they could safely sing their way
through the country.

Lively discussions usually fol-
lowed their concerts. Ncff re-
ports. Peace wu sthc central
theme. With surprising fre-
quency the opinions expressed
by Russian citizens varied from
the "party line." When, for
example, some young Com-
munist officials began reciting
Party-line slogans, a group of
citizens shouted. "Oh, come on,
we've heard that before," Rus-
sian students attacked Marxism
on the same grounds on which
It Is criticized in the West.

So deep Is the Russians' de-
sire for peace, says Neff, that
some Indicated they would stand
up to the Kremlin If it tried to
send them Into battle. One
middle-aged worked declared:
"I will never kill a man again
except to shoot the officer who
tells me to shoot."

Religion Is surprisingly vigor-
ous. Neff says. At least 200
babies were baptized In one day
in a Greek Ortliodox Church in
Leningrad. The youth of the
worshippers, mostly young
parents who travelled from
nearby towns, belled the Soviet
claim that only the old cling to
religion.

Neff's conclusion: The Soviet
people are not about to revolt.
They are, however, critical of
their rulers often in a highly
vocal way. And significantly, the
criticism seems to be increasing.

Spring Football
Practice Underway

The Savannah State Tigers
gridiron is popping with activity
since the beginning of spring
football practice. Coach Richard
Washington gave his squad of
25 a light workout the first week.
But now that the conditioning
is over, the rough stuff has
started.

In looking over the squad one
can see quite a few letter men
returning. Among them are men
that contributed to the winning
Tigers of 1958. such as James
Bowen, a topflight lineman
from Albany, in his second sea-
son with the Tigers, John
Strong, a halfback and fullback
who is expected to do big things
for the Tigers this season. Strong
is from Albany, and is in his
third season with the Tigers.
Elijah McGraw. Savannah, a
two-time all conference winner,
and last year's captain, is at left
end, James Whatley, a flashy
halfback who was sidelined most
of last season from injuries, is
out there to make up for what
he missed.

Two freshmen who waited on
their big break last season, are
John Owens, a former Beach
High end, who because of his
speed was converted to half-
back, and Edward Reid, a quar-
terback from Beach High, who
on several occasions helped the
Tigers out of some rough spots.
These fellows are making a good
showing in spring practice.

Another newcomer who is
doing a fine job at quarterback
is Leslie Stepliens of Quitman,
with a little help this fellow
could be the added strength that
the Tigers' backfield needs.

SSC Track
Season Starts

The "cinder-men" of Savan-
nah State College, have begun
workouts, under the direction of
Coach Theodore Wright. The
Tigers are expecting a fruitful
season. It is predicted that they
can take the SEAC track crown.
This could be very possible with
such outstanding speedsters and
high jumpers as Sammy White
and Willie Batchlor returning
after a winning season last year.

Sammy White set a new SEAC
record with a 6 foot leap in the
conference tournament last sea-
son. White also does a terrific
job on the high and low hurdles.
Willie Batchlor is a pole vaulter
who was a winner on many oc-
casions last season.

Coach Wright is quite satis-
fled with some new members of
the track team, especially in the
performances of John (Breeze)
Owens, a speedster from Beach
High School. Owens runs the
100 yard dash, the 220 yard dash
and is working out with the re-
lay team. Owens was Beach
High's top cinderman and is ex-
pected to be a big help to the
Savannah State Tigers.

Some other members of the
team are. Raymond Harper,
Terry Mays, Reuben Toombs,
Alphonson Brown. George
Toombs, James Dixon. Willie
Henderson. Eugene Rhodes and
Cleveland Tolmes * a letterman
with a beautiful high school
record ) .

pares and evaluates objectively
the quality and technique of
higher education on both sides
of the Atlantic.

While agreeing that instruc-
tion in our colleges and univer-
sities may often be pedestrian
and uninspired, he contends that
it is the materialistic, market-
oriented values of contemporary
life, reflected in the inhuman
machine of campus bureaucracy,
that tend to make the student
something less than an edu-
cated person. Of the attempt to
uphold the standards of learn-
ing for its own sake while at the
same time training for a utili-
tarian society. Mr. MacDonald
says, "The aim is to make the
'well-rounded student': the re-
sult is usually the . . . block-
headed drudge." He also feels
very strongly that the American
high school does little to pre-
pare its students for the rigors
of genuine higher education, and
sends them to college ill-
equipped to benefit from even
the best of teaching.

The timeliness of Professor

the enthusiastic response of
students all over the country to
the opportunity offered by the
essay contest of expressing their
sincere feelings about the weak-
nesses of higher education to-
day. But a hopeful note was
sounded in the intention of
many of these young people to

SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE

SAVANNAH, GEORGIA

SAVANNAH. GEORGIA

Vol. 12, No. 5

Of Year^' For the State of Georgia

There is an old saying that a college is no greater than its
alumni. This month, Mrs. Sadie Steele, class of '48. was selected
as the "Teacher of the Year" for the state of Georgia. This honor
marks another first for Savannah State College as well as for
Chatham County-
Mrs. Steele is a native of Sa-
vannah and attended elementary I JMCjA PlaVd'S

ville. Florida, from which she
was graduated. She was an ele-
mentary education major at Sa-
vannah State College and was
graduated with the Bachelor of
Science degree. She holds the
Master of Arts degree in ele-
mentary education from Colum-
bia University.

She has been teaching for
more than twenty years and is
truly dedicated to the teaching
profession. Presently she has a
combined class of first grade and
second grade pupils at Powell
Laboratory School, Thunderbolt.
To see her teach is an inspira-
tional experience in itself. The
trust, respect and admiration
that her pupils have for her can
only come from her sincerity,
outgoing personality and her at-
titude that every child is first
a dynamic human being, who
possesses at least some one thing
that can and should be de-
veloped so that he can make his
contribution to society. Under
her guidance, even the most shy
and reticent children blossom
out.

In addition to her professional
commitments, she finds time to
be president of the Savannah
Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma
Theta Sorority; she is a mem-
ber of the Hodge Memorial
Kindergarten Board; she serves
on the Tuberculosis Citizenship
Board; she is active with several
volunteer agencies and charities:

of Bunn's Memorial Baptist
Church, Savannah, but she is

By "CJein"
A very .small, but appreciative
crowd witne.s.sed the first annual
"MIh.s Savannah State Pageant"
on Thursday evening. May 14,
1050. Talent, charm and beauty
were very vividly dl.splayed, The
narrator foi- the spectac^lc was
Miss Sara Heynold.s.

The lovely aspirants foi' the
coveted title. "Miss SSC." were
Introduced to the audience. They
were beautifully dressed In vivid
colors and styles. Miss Josle
Simpson wore a pink, embroid-
ered cotton sheath. Miss Mildred
Thomas won; a lace beige suit.
MI.S.S Juliette West wore a beige
empire - waist sheath. Miss
Delores Julian wore a lavender
.sheath with white accessories.
Miss Lonnle Culver wore a purple
|]olka dot sheath with a purple
duster. Her accessories were
white.

After a short Interval the con-
testants then modeled swim
suits. Miss Culver wore a one-
piece bliu'.k swim suit. Miss
Julian's suit was also a ono-
Ijlece black. Miss Simpson ap-
peared In a white, low-back suit.
Miss Thomas wore a onc-pleec
yellow-orange. Ml.ss West wore
a very stminlng onc-pleco blue.
The next sequence was the
modeling of evening wear. Miss
Culver wore a pink street-length
gown with rhinestone accesso-
ries, Miss Julian wore a soft-
green lace; her accessories were
also rhlnestones. Miss Simpson
wove a soft pink gown covered
with chiffon. Miss Thomas was
carrying a rhinestone carry-all.
and wore a white nylon and luce
street-length gown. Miss West
wore a full-length gown. Her
accessories also featured rhlne-
stones.

In the next sequence talent
was exhibited. Miss Julian recited
"The White Magnolia Tree." Her
attire was a black pleated cotton
skirt, a long sleeve white blouse,
and black pumps with "cha-cha"
heels. Miss Culver, wearing a
pink etrcular-skirt dress and
silver slippers, performed a
creative dance to the song "He."
Miss Simpson's Interpretation of
"Between the World and Me"
was appreciated very highly, ac-
cordnig to the applause; she
wore a nlle-green cotton dress.
Miss Thonms. accompanied by
Miss Jnanlta Moon, sang "The
Birth of the Blues." Her feat was
also highly appreciated. She
wore rhinestone earrings,
crystal-clear bare backs, and the
beige lace suit which she wore
In the first sequence. Miss West
performed a monologue, in which
she portrayed a mother whose
son was receiving his first danc-
ing lesson. She wore a white
pleated skirt, a yellow blouse,
neutral kid flat pumps and silver
earrings. The audience ap-
plauded very appreciatively after
her performance.

The big question is which of
these lovely and talented young
ladies will reign as "Miss SSC"
and who will be her charming
attendants.

A. Powell Da vies in The
Temptation to Be Good:

A young lady I have known
.since she was a baby wrote re-
cently to tell me of her engage-
ment; .she was so full of the
happiness of It that her letter
was almo.st a song of Joy. Then,
at the end. .she had a moment
of misgiving and wondered
whether I would think that what
.she had written was rather silly.
So she said, "It Is a surprising
thought to me, but I suppo.se all
the rest of the world of sensible
people think that he Is Just an
ordinary nice young man. It's
amazing, but I .suppose that this
Is what they think!"

I wrote back that she need
not bother about "sensible" peo-
ple. I told her that no young man
beloved Is ever an ordinary
young man; that every time two
people really loved each other
the world began all over again;
that, always, the world Is what
uur own hearts take to It; that
the love we carry with us makes
all loveliness come true. And If
you think I told her any lies.
whoever you are, you have grown
older than you needed to, and
ought to be ashamed.

Farrar, Straus and Cudahy

Freya Stark in Alexander's
Path :

A good traveler does not, I
think, much mind the uninter-
esting places. He Is there to be
Inside them, as a thread Is in-
side the necklace It strings. The
world, with unknown and un-
expected variety. Is a part of his
own leisure; and this living
participation is what separates
the traveler and the tourist, who
remains separate, as if he were
at a theaer. and not himself a
part of whatever the show may
be. Harcourt. Brace

Thomas Paine:

Reputation is what men and
women think of us; character is
what God and the angels know
of us.

Vice Adm. Hyman G. Rickover:

Today's effort to wrap chil-
dren In cotton wool and protect
them against every risk of school
life contrasts with the way chil-
dren were raised in pioneer days.
No parent would then have
dreamed of sparing his son the
risk of possible accident by not
teaching him how to shoot a
rifle, Smvival in poneer days
depended on being a handy shot;
the risk of a child's hurting him-
self had to be taken. Today,
survival depends on the ability
to raise one's intellectual
capacities to higher levels than
were ever before needed ; yet
many American parents will not
accept the risk of their child's
hurting himself by failing in a
tough curriculum. Ability to
think is as Important today as
ability to shoot was yesterday.
Although our folklore has little
admiration for the pampered
child of rich parents, now that
most of us are rich beyond the
dreams of people elsewhere in
this world richer by far than
most ruling classes were a few
generations ago now we en-
gage in that very pampering
which we once scorned.

Margaret Kennedy in The
Mida Touch:

The art of happiness, like that
of bicycling, should be learned as
early as possible. The balance,
the unconscious poise, the
effortless adjustment, do not
come naturally to those who
have never known them in
childhood

Spring Captivates
Savannah State

By Mamie Green

Spring made Its debut at SSC.
and everyone is taking advantage
of all that comes with such a
Joyous season. The trees are
dressed at their very best, all
donned in green leaves and lowly
hanging Spanish moss. The
grass is brightly green and at
morning, fresh with dew. The
atmosphere possesses a faint
aroma of freshness. The pale-
blue sky. ablaze with flowing
sun. Is pregnant with fluffy
clouds, as white as virgin silk.

On the campus, beneath the
trees are squirrels scampering to
and fro. Dogs of various breeds
and sizes are busily chasing
squirrels and each other. Chirp-
ing birds stream overhead. At
the top of the stately-standing
flagpole is the flag waving gently
whenever a balmy breeze blows.

Scattered around the spacious
grounds are cars of various sizes,
makes, models and colors. And
stepping from those cars are
students and faculty members
all dressed in the latest
fashions. The males seem to be
inclined toward the popular cord
suits. The females are stepping
out In sheaths of various styles,
tolors and fabrics. The popular
can-can slips are also worn, (Of
course, they are worn with the
circle skirts).

There is really something
majestic about this season called
spring. Couples are seen strolling
to class, from class, to dinner,
to the library, to the dormitory
or just strolling to be strolling
with each other. To find the
appropriate words to depict a
typical spring day at SSC, one
would have to exhaust the
largest dictionary, and then
there is the possibihty that the
job would not be completed.

This joyous season promotes
"carefreeness," romance, and
most of all the urge to study.

No one, except those at SSC
van really know what pleasant
conditions engulf the campus.
And only lovers (those in love
with love, Nature and each
other I, can really appreciate the
joy this season brings.

Have you sat in the Alphas'
park at night? Well, the
mosquitoes are quite bothersome,
but the air is so balmy that you
nearly forget you're being bitten
by those blood thieves.

The members of the SSC
family are truly lucky people, for
very few people know of the joy
and happiness that are all theirs
at the beautiful Savannah State
College.

THE TIGERS ROAR

The ABC's of
Job Hunting

So. the Great Adventure lies
before you finding the right
career.

You've left the campus behind
you. whether it be permanently
or just for a summer job.

You're "in the market now"
forearmed with the experience
and knowledge gained in school
to help you meet the "outside
world." Now. no matter how the
job begins, you're ready to put
your classroom knowledge into
actual every-day working prac-
tice.

How do you go about finding
the right job? Where do you
start? What can you offer? Re-
member, to begin with, finding
a job is an experience common
virtually to everyone. With
proper planning you need not
become a "jumping jack" from
one job to another. If you know
what to expect from prospective
employers and how to meet their
needs you'll find you can become
profitably employed in the field
of your true choice and grow in
it contributing both to your job
and to yourself.

Now, is there an "art" to job-
seeking? Most people know more
about buying a car or refrigera-
tor than they know about find-
ing a job. Yes. there is a method.
It takes systematic and organ-
ized effort. And as a newcomer
to the rank^ of the working folks
employers will judge you on cer-
tain basic points. According to
the Mennen Company, whose
men's toiletries help to relate
your good grooming to success,
they list the following as the
Basic ABC steps for the job-
seeker to follow:

1. Constructive Attitude:
"Sell" yourself. Be confident.

Have the right attitude in want-
ing to make good.

2. Know What You Have To
Offer:

Analyze what you really like
to do best. Study your interests.
Be prepared to talk about them
during an interview. Knowing,
then, that the first product you
have to sell is your self, you must
then find the market for your-
self.

3 Learn About Field:
Based on your interest in a

field learn as much about it as
possible. Asking family, relatives,
older people in business about
certain fields, and your voca-
tional guidance counsellor gives
you insight into preparing your-
self for the needs of the field of
your choice.

4 Write Application:

It is advisable to write to per-
sonnel directors of companies in
your area that interest you. State
your school record, and previous
work record, if any. State your
interests and service record in
school. Look for relationship be-
tween past training or experi-
ence and relate to job desired.

5 Getting Started:
Sources for job leads can be

found in your classified direc-
tory, asking family friends about
job openings, through your
school employment bureau.

6. Arrive Early:

First impressions count. Arrive
at interview five minutes early.
The interviewer will respect your
interest. Lateness is a bad strike
against you to begin with.

7 Appearance Counts :

Be neat, clean, hair combed.
fingernails clean, well-pressed
clothes, shined shoes, avoid
gaudy jewels, makeup. Using
men's toiletries, such as Mennen.
will keep you well-shaved, well
groomed to reflect to a prospec-
tive employer that you also have
the type of well-groomed mind
that makes for success in his
company.

8. Advance Planning:

Be definite in your answers to
interviewer. Sit up straight, feet
firmly on ground. Think before
answering a question. Prepare
yourself to discuss school, work
record, special interests which

could contribute to your getting
ahead on the job.

9. Prepare Resume:

"Sell" interviewer on his need
to hire you by showing him past
work record. List jobs, dates of
jot'3. names of employers, kinds
of work you did. reason you left.
For references, give names and
addresses of three reliable peo-
ple who know you and your
work.

10. Be Wise:

Be confident, enthusiastic, but
don't bluff. Use good English,
and speak distinctly. But don't
talk too much. Listen carefully.
Be polite and tactful. Show in-
terest in asking about the com-
pany and its operations. Don't
argue with the employer. Don't
mention personal problems,
home, or money problems. Call
interviewer by last, not first
name. Don't say "I'll take any-
thing." Be flexible and willing,
but indicate your preferences. Be
realistic in discussing wages.

11. Understand Employer's
Needs:

Be grown-up. businesslike if
it seems you won't get the job.
Seek employer's advice about
other jobs with the firm which
may come up.

12. Keep "At U":

Having "hurdled" the experi-

For Gradiiales, Sayis Will IJiiianl

Op|)

For from declining,, opporlun-
Ity for the young graduate Is
richer than ever In today's world,
notes famed phllo.sopher Will
Durant In the June Reader's
Digest.

To make the most of thl.s op-
portunity. Dr. Durant advises, In
effect: stay healthy, get mar-
ried and learn when to keep
quiet

Sicknes-H l,s a crime whleh In
most eases indicates that you
have done something physio-
logically foolish, Dr . Durant
points out. "Perhaps one of the
cardinal errors of our land and
time Is that we continue In a
sedentary life the diet that once
served to provide muscle fni- an
active one."

To remedy this excess of "im-
ports over exports," exercise for
at least an hour each day, he
advises. "Cut the lawn, clean the
car. lake a walk."

ILarly marriage- "as noon as
you can keep the wolT fiom tlie
door" Is another stimulant to
success. "You will be too young
lo ehoo.Hi' wisely, hut you won't
be much wiser In these matters
at -10." But let at least .six
months elapse between first ac-

quaintance and marriage, he
says.

Finally, icarn when it Is wise
not to speak. "If you can't say
good and eneouraglng things,
say nothing. Nothing is always
a clever thing to say."

Having offered these guides to
success, Dr. Durant warns not to
make too much of success. "Build
an economic basis under your
life, but don't get caught In the
rattrap of money-making as a
profession. That, like sex, can
be a consuming fever, and it
brlnj^s no lasting happiness,"

The article, "Young Man
Your World." Is condensed from
a eoijimencement address de-
livered by Dr. Durant at a Clare-
mont, California school.

ing the regular assembly hour
Wednesday, June 24.

Mr. Jones chose as his subject,

states. "Kindness in another's
trouble and courage in your
own." Next he presented an
analysis of kindness and courage
and stated some of the advant-

he can achieve."

Hist Baccalaureate
Held at SSC

The eighty-first Baccalaureate
Service of Savannah State Col-
lege was held Sunday afternoon,
May 31. 1959. at 5:00 p.m. in
Meldrim Auditorium.

The address to the eighty-one
members of the graduating class
was delivered by Dr, E. O. S.
Cleveland, pastor of the Saint
John Baptist Church, Savannah,
Georgia. Dr. Cleveland chose a.s
his topic, "A Set Purpo.se,"
based on the Fir.st Chapter and
the eighth verse of Daniel.

Dr. Cleveland told the gradu-
ates that anyone with a set pur-
pose , , . an unchanegable goal
. . cannot be defeated perma-
nently. He cautioned the gradu-
ates to stay close to God, and
allow God to lead them and to
keep faith in their ideals.

Dr. William K. Payne, Presi-
dent of Savannah State College,
introduced the speaker. Also in-
cluded on the program was the
invocation by Rev. A. E. Pea-
cock; selections, "He Shall Come
Down Like Rain." and "Soon Ah
Will Be Done," by the Savannah
State College Choral Society,
under the direction of Dr. Cole-
ridge Braithwaite; and "Pilgrim's

Mekhim Auditorium iit 11:00 on Juno 3.

Dr. Thurman chose us his
thesis, "Seek After Truth." Ho
told the olghliy-ono graduates
from twenty-olf^ht cities that
the key to the outer world lies
within the individual. Though
one may not be as good looking
as one would like to bo or as
learned as one would like to bo,
but seeing how one Is .stuck with
one's self, he had well accept
this fact and get a<:(|ualnted
with himself. He further .stated
that In order to accept younself
you must accept responsibility
and grov/ up. Tho definition of
giTjwIng up according to Dr.
Thurman Is ". . , Learning how
to accept the time Interval be-
tween the desires of an In-
dividual and tho fulfillment of
the desires."

He stated that you must be a
seeker of truth In the world and
society in which you live and In
order to do so you mu.st under-
stand v/ith a brain that Is a.s
hard as ice and with a heart as
warm as that of a mother.

Dr, Thurman stated that free-
dom is a sense of alternative and
option. "As long as you have a
choice, you are free." But when
you lose your sense of choice,
though you still eat, sleep and
produce your kind . . , you are
dead! Die poor, unknown, un-
loved, perhaps, but shut your
eyes to nothing that .seems to
you to be the truth. . , ."

Included in the program were
the invocation by Rev. P. A.
Patterson, pa.stor, Butler Pres-
byterian Church ; selections,
'The Beatitudes" and "Great
and Marvellous Are Thy Works,"
by the Savannah State College
Choral Society and "On Great
Lone Hills." by the Men's
Ensemble; presentation of the
speaker by President W. K.
Payne; and induction of Gradu-
ates into the Alumni Association
by Mr. Leonard H. Law, Presi-
dent. National Alumni Associ-
ation.

Dr. W. K. Payne
A<ldre.sse8 Family

Dr. William K, Payne, Presi-
dent of Savannah State College,
delivered the keynote address
during the first all-College As-
sembly of the Summer Quarter
on June 18, In Meldrim Audi-
torium.

Dr. Payne stated that in the
past much emphasis was placed
on the type of education, but in
the present day the emphasis
has shifted from type to quality.
For if our society is to survive,
the Institutions of today must
provide men and women with a
quality of education that will
enable them to derive solutions
for the problems existing in this
era.

He set forth that the calibre
of education, the quality of
learning received by individuals,
will deal a deciding blow in re-
lation to the alleviation of world
problems.

He cautioned those enrolled in
summer school to strive to at-
tain a quality of education that
will be representative of them-
selves, their country and all
concerned.

Points lo Ponder

l.ouis Pasteur:

Never try to prove to the other
person that you are right. It is
human nature to object to any-
one who In.slstH he Is right.
Rather, always present your
arguments In such a manner as
to do your best to prove that
you are wrong. If you follow this
approach, especially when you
are sure you are right, the self-
same person you are trying to
convince will bring up strong
evidence in behalf of your cause
anfi prove to himself and to the
world that your stand Is correct.

(.'larence Day in ????:
The world of books is the most
remarkable creation of man.
Nothing else that he builds ever
lasts. Monuments fall; nations
perish: civilizations grow old
and die out; and, after an era
of darkness, new races build on
others. But in tlie world of
books are volumes that have
seen this happen again and
again, and yet live on, still
young, still as fresh as the day
they were written, .still telling
men's hearts of the hearts of
men centuries dead.

T. A. Boyd in Professional
Amateur, the Biography of
Cliarles Trankiin Kettering:

Said "Boss" Kettering: "Re-
search is a high-hat word that
scares a lot of people. It needn't.
It is nothing but a state of mind
a friendly, welcoming attitude
toward change. It is the prob-
lem-solving mind as contrasted
with the let- well-enough-alone
mind. It is the composer mind
instead of the fiddler mind. It is
the tomorrow mind instead of
the yesterday mind. "

Clifton Fadiman:

Tile great teacher is rarely
"popular." He is interested in
something more important than
winning the affections of an un-
ending procession of young peo-
ple. No great teacher is demo-
cratic, in the sense that a suc-
cessful politician must be. Mark
Van Doren. who taught me Eng-
lish at Columbia, calmly assumed
a class composed entirely of
heavy thinkers. At first this was
embarrassing, but after a wliile
you got used to it, and pretty
soon you found yourself saying
something practically publish-
able. I can remember philosophy
classes, presided over by another
fine teacher, the late Irwin Ed-
man, in which football heroes
suddenly, if impermanently, be-
canie adults simply because Ed-
man refused to treat them as
anything else. Memorable is that
quick look of panic mingled with
amazed delight tliat would
spread over their pleasant open
faces at the realization that they
had given birth to an idea. By
this look you may know that
education is in process.

Despite IStUure's Ways

Many students, from neighbor-
ing areas and various states,
have enrolled at Savannah State
College for the Summer Quarter
despite the ways of nature.

It is a logical assumption that
these students considered the
practical consequences of at-
tending summer school before
making a decision.

Even though, during the sum-
mer months at Savannah State,
the mercury rises far above 90
degrees and sometimes above
the 100-degree mark, the class-
rooms are hot and humid, the
various types of insects are
plentiful, and various other
forms of discomfort are to be
encountered, the values to be
received outweigh these condi-
tions by a hundred-fold.

Along with her discomforts,
nature provides many favorable
conditions. Nature has produced
an environment at Savannah
State College that may be
equaled by a few, but surpassed
by none. The moss laden trees.
songs produced by birds, the
rays of the sun that seem to
kiss the nearby marsh and
many other colorful surround-
ings, enchant all of the in-
liabitants of this "college by the

It is hoped that the students
enrolled at Savannah State Col-
lege this summer have chosen
this institution not because of
the beauty that nature has shed
upon it. but because of the edu-
cational benefits that it attempts
to provide for its students.

Sometimes, when judging edu-
cational institutions, one says
that a certain institution is very
"poor," The fact is that the in-
dividual has failed to decom-
pose the institution Into its com-
ponents. An institution as de-
fined by Webster's New World
Dictionary is "an organization
having a social, religious or edu-
cational purpose . . , the build-
ing housing such an organiza-
tion." In this definition the key
word is "organization." This
term as defined by the same
reference is ". . . A body of per-
sons organized for some specific
purpose. . . ." According to this
definition, the statement. "That
a certain institution is very
poor," could easily be altered to
read, "That is a very poor group
of individuals."

Tills statement refers to a
situation where the instructor
is not assuming his responsibility
to the teaching profession nor
the students involved and also
where the student is not assum-
ing his responsibility to himself
nor the instructor.

It is the student's duty to
demand the "goods' that he is
paying for. "The student must
bring some to get more," his

BILLIE HOLLIDAY IS
HOSPITALIZED . . .

Hospitalized with a serious
liver and heart condition after
distasteful hassles with two New
York institutions. Billie Holliday
was under medical treatment
when police charged her with
possession of narcotics in her
hospital room.

Forty-four years old now and
broken in health. Billie Holliday,
one of the greatest singers jazz
ever produced, was giving a sad
illustration of what Shakespeare
meant by "the law's delay." A
New York newspaper had for its
headlines, "Singer Billie Holliday
Is Dying." To some of us, they
were talking about "our girl,"
our non-expendable Billie. And
what was Billie doing while such
a sensational report was being
made? Well, Billie was sitting
up in a room at the Metropolitan
Hospital in New York City. On
Wednesday. June 3, Dr. Caminer
of Metropolitan Hospital con-
firmed for the second time that
Billie's illness had no connection
with drugs. After seventy-two
hours in the hospital, she had
shown no symptons of with-
drawal. The New York paper
then stated that Billie is now
"straight." It was then known
that "Our gal." Billie Holliday,
was a long way from dead. She
is now thinking about the work
she has to do recording the
sound track of the film based
on her life this summer.
J. J. JOHNSON -CAUGHT IN
THE ACT ' . . .

The new Basin Street East is
attempting to occupy a middle
ground, midway between Broad-
woys' Birdland and the intimacy
of the Embers. The quiet subtlety
of the J. J. Johnson Quintet is
well suited to this purpose. They
play good, listenable jazz with-
out being too aggressive about
it.

On the opening night, the J. J.
Johnson Quintet's first tune was
a number entitled, "Tune Up"
(which was just about what the
title indicated t . Cole Porter's
"Ive Got You Under My Skin."
and J. J.'s interpretation of
"Star Dust" were next. J. J.
played the latter in a very
modern vein with profound
creativeness. The members of
the group were J. J- Johnson,
trombone; Cliff Jordan, tenor
sax: Albert Heath, drums; Cedar
Walton, piano; and James De
Brest, bass.

Teachers Study

Mass Coininunications

The Mass Media of Communi-
cations class under the direc-
tion of Mrs. Luetta C. Upshur,
assistant professor of languages
and literature, is composed of
thirteen students, eight in-
service teachers and five regular
students. The purpose of the
class is to analyze the media in
terms of content, method and
psychology.

Members of the class are as
follows: Jeanette Shatteen, in-
structor. Mary Jackson Ele-
mentary School. Statesboro:
Pharestine Appling. Nahunta
Elementary School, Nahunta;
Mary Lester. UnadtUa Elemen-
tary School. Unadilla ; Rebecca

Alvin Collins, senior, English
major. Waycross: Sworena
Smalls. Tattnall County Indus-
trial School, Reidsville ; Mattle
Lee, instructor. Savannah;
Delores Dorsey. Peaboby High
School, Eastman.

The group has analyzed radio
and television programs accord-
ing to content. This was done
through the use of televisions
and radios in and out of class.

In-Service Teachers
Give Deinonstrations

The in-service teachers en-
rolled in the workshop in Edu-
cation 461 and 462 conducted
demonstrations in the areas of
language arts, arithmetic and
social studies.

Mrs. Dorothy Jamerson, a
member of the Sol Johnson
faculty, gave the initial demon-
stration in the area of language
arts. She worked from the sub-
unit title "Exploring Natural
Resources Through the Langu-
age Arts." With the use of re-
cordings and pictures she re-
lated to the students how peo-
ple in the Philippine Islands live
and some of the uses they make
of their natural resources.

Mr. June Hart, instructor at
Aaron Elementary School.
Millen, Georgia, demonstrated
methods of teaching arithmetic.
He explored various methods
and fundamentals suitable for
lower and upper elementary
groups.

Mr. Andrew Bowers. LaOrange,
Georgia, used "Social Studies In
Many Areas" as a working unit
theme. He concentrated his dis-
cussion In civics, geography and
history- Mr. Bowers simplified
his presentation by making
reference to the three major
institutions of learning, the
church, the home and the school.

The Violatefl

Bourjally, Vance N.. The Vio-
lated. New York: The Dial Press,
inc. 1058. 509 pp.
A Review by Yvonne Hooks
The Boar'.s Head Club at SSC
has recently read, dlscu-ssed and
recommended for your reading
enjoyment a novel by Vance Nye
Bourjally, The Violated.

Vance Bourjally l.s the author
of two prevlou.s novfjl,';, The Knd
of My Life and The Hound of
thi! Karth. and was co-founder
of the literary publication, Ois-
covcry. A .sometime drama critic,
television dramatist, and news-
paperman, Mr, Bourjally l.s now
.serving as vl.sltlng lecturer at
the University of lov/a Writers'
Workshop.

Although the drifting plot of
the novel Is not pointedly em-
phasized, It serves to combine
and Interweave a stimulating
group of pcojile whom the author
vividly characterizes.

The novel tells the story of
how four individuals whose lives
suddenly connect In the Ivy
League years before the war
when they meet, largely through
Tom Benlnger's effort, fa.sclnate,
hate, love, help, and hurt each
other

Till- Violated Is mcrltoiious

because of BourjaiIy'.s perceptive,
often moving, characterlzatlon.s
of brilliant Tom Beninger. hi.s
pretty .sister, Ellen; hl.s friend,
wealthy playboy Guy Cinturon,
and tough Eddie Bl.ssle.

The author's Fltzgcrald-like
atmosphere .sadly .surrounds
Ellen Beninger, a pretty, vl-
vaclou.s girl, who in matronly
years has become a shadowy,
sensele.s.s alcoholic.

Bourjally evokes humor in his
portrait of Guy Cinturon, the
wealthy playboy from Mexico
who diligently kcep.s a diary of
conquests with a page for every
girl he has known.

One character who draw.s
.striking attention Is Eddie Bissle.
In his words, "crud." In tough.
dwarfLsh Bi.s.sle, the reader see.s
a dlrth of faith, hope, love and
happiness, a 5' 5" thump of un-
relenting bitterness, hate, and
In.sen.sltlvlty. Author Bourjally
explains;

"Eddie Blssle's heart broke
young so he throw the damn
cub scout pieces away."

The author's characterization
of Tom points up the tenderness,
gentleness, confusion of a
brilliant, warm youth. The
reader sees Tom search for
happiness, and living. The

elementary workshops at Savannah State College, Donell Bean, a
representative from the Bell and Howell Company, as he gives

reader sees Tom fail at jobs,
aspirations, and hopes. Then the
reader feels anguished defeat
when this climate of search,
confusion, and failure consumes
Tom.

In the words of the author
these people are violated

". . . by their inability to com-

municate, to love, to compre-
hend, to create violated by
neurotic commitments to pre-
posterous goals or, more tragic-
ally, to no goals at all."

The author's style is one of
frank brevity which combines
compact realism and harshness
with subtle humor.

Personality
Of the Month

"When you're smiling, the
whole world smiles with you."

On every college campus, you
will find an individual that takes
pride in shedding a little joy in
the lives of his colleagues. This
individual uses humor to dis-
play to his fellow schoolmates
that "things are never as bad
as they seem.''

At Savannah State College,
Thomas ("Tom") J. Farlow, Jr..
is considered as the campus-
wide humorist. Tom is a native
of Folkston, Georgia. He is a
freshman at Savannah State
College and plans to major in
physical education and minor in
social science. He is an active
member of the Tiger's Roar and
various other student organiza-
tions.

The staff of the Tiger's Roar
congratulates Thomas Farlow
upon being selected as "per-
sonality of the month."

Elementary Science
Teachers Study
Electrons at SSC

During the first days of July,
the teachers in the Elementary
Science Workshop studied the
atom and its uses in everyday
life. They hoped to gain knowl-
edge from these experiences that
would be useful to them as they
attempt to teach pupils on the
elementary levels the concepts
pertaining to atomic energy.

W. V. Winters, Professor of
Physics, Savannah State College,
was the first consultant used in
this study. He introduced this
unit of study with a lecture-
demonstration on the atom. Mr.
Winters used the hydrogen
atom in his demonstration since
it is the lightest one and is more
easily demonstrated. He dia-
gramed this atom along with
others, showing their internal
structures: the nuclei, protons,
neutrons and electrons, and how
the protons are located within
the nuclei and how the electrons
and nuclei travel in their
respective orbits around the
nuclei.

Mr. Winters then explained
the principles of nuclear fission,
the difference between a stable
and unstable atom, and isotopes,
their uses and formation. He
also demonstrated the use of the
Geiger counter in determining
and locating radio-active ma-
terial.

The second consultant for this
workshop was Mr. Ware T. Beall,
a specialist in science educa-
tion and a traveling science
teacher. Mr. Beall continued the
work that was initiated by Mr.
Winters. He concerned himself
primarily with the electrical
charges located in the outer
orbits of atoms which are known
as electrons. He demonstrated
how these electrons, known to
all as electricity, are harnessed
and used in our everyday living.

He also showed a list of ex-
periments that could be used in
dem.onstrating the concepts of
electricity on all grade levels to
achieve the objectives listed in
Science for Georgia Schools.
