Is It any wonder that foreigners find our language dif- ficult and confusing? How can we teach more than we know about our Mother Tongue? To a foreigner, HOUSE would sug- gest n structure. Yet. the same HOUSE t;an be used as a verb lmi)lylng tlie provision of shelter, Finally, one begins to wonder If anything Is yet Immobile. After a disgusting experience with such homonyms as rain, reign, meet, meat and the like, we dis- cover the word READ. Is It "reed" or "red?" It could be citlicr, depending on its use, since READ Is both present and past tense of the Infinitive "to read." Seemingly, there Is no limit to the difficulties and controversies of our language.

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." 8-10 10 11 11-17 15 17 November Coming Events Thurs.-Sat. Saturday Sunday Sun-Sat.

Flowers for the Dancers Miss Savannah State (Carolyn Pat- terson Beli) presents flowers to the Robert Joffrey Dancers shortly aftr their performance of "Within Four Walls." 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, College Cornershop Entrance to College Campus Phone AD 4-9263 s November. 1956 THE TIGER'S ROAH Page 5 SSC Makes New Facility Appointments and Proniotionn; Dr. W.

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 for the benefit of all." Clevon Johnson. 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? Clark Appointed To Scholarship Board President Dwight D. Eisen- hower has appointed Dr. Felton G.

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."

Willie End 190 6'3" Co-Captains 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?

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.

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."

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.

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 (Continued on Page 'i) 1^8 Page 2 THE TIGER'S ROAR Januar>', 1957 The Tiller's Hoar Staff V):>(>-:,7 iger Editor-ln-chlcf Society Editors Secretary Cartoonl.sL Photographer Sports Editor Assistants Exchange Editors .

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.

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 iLontimi^d on I'oge 3t 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. W. K. PAYNE.

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.

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

Once a man has acquired a basic list of good grooming essentials he's ready to learn how to look like a "man in a million," The beginning college student will find several new innovations for fall. 1956, but the staple items are more important than ever. Oxford, button-down shirts in colors and white, and slim ties in neat rep stripes and foulard patterns are up to the minute. He'll be attracted by the latest glen plaid and vertical .stripe patterns in sport jackets and the new lighter shades of blue and gray in 3-button worsted or flannel suits. Two pairs of slim- fitting, lightweight flannel or worsted slacks, sportshirts in classic styling and several sweaters, both the sleeveless pullover and the crewnecked. bulky, long sleeved varieties, will take care of his campus needs.

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 President's attorney and special counsel. When he announced the revi- sion. Attorney General Brown- ell admitted publU-ly that "we actually have buildings full of classified documents" and he said the new system would work toward prompt declassification all along the line. 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- ture, 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 Interior and Health. Education 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.

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. }l hilt's \l rottii ]} itii (hir Pio^rtuns'/ I. IMilvei 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. W. K.

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.

Roosevelt Wil- liams, also an industrial educa- tion major, was selected vice- president and Delores Atterberry. an elementary education major, is the secretary. 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. ^1/ ASTRONOMERS! Long sunsets make you impatient?

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 Simmons; Treasurer, Flossie Williams: Clerk of Order, Ta- sheila Warren.

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. Seven o'clock In the evening. 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- ing where, the uncertain mind 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? Uncle Sam has a selective 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. Motorcycle-Trucks Spccrl Ahiu (larf^ocH 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- covery Organization. Nimble as 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. "Well doctor, was my opera- tion a success"? "I'm not your doctor, I'm St. Peter," service board that will provide you with the proper notification. When will the summons come? When will the postman stand in front of my house and deposit a letter that will take me from my home, my school, my friends? No. Mr. Morgan, your question cannot be answered this night. You must sit and contemplate a world hungry for death. You must wait like a thousand other students . . .

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.

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.

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 (^Icfininf^s Front Magftzint'H 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.

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. neth F. Mclntyre, an instructor at the University of Texas.

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." 35 Mav. 1957 SOCIAL WHIRL AT SSC THE TIGER'S ROAU Rev. and Mrs. A.

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 gives graphic evi- dence of this. Chinese, .spoken by some 600,000,000 persons, tor example. Is taught In only 29 schools.

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 TI GER'S ROAR Tijieis r)'fal Seats 11-7; (t-.i 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.

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." Ifiirifrary Stiirlcnts Writ*- linjirr^^sion Recent events in Hungary have focu.sed attention on the role of .students In the fight for freedom. For this reason, we are .'lending you a .series of seven autobiographical sketch- es written by Hungarian stu- dent escapees, which were complied by our NSA coordi- nator at Hunter College. The.se students are currently partici- pating in the language train- ing program at Bard College wllh whleh USNSA has coop- erated closely. We believe that you will find this series time- ly as well as informative to your readers, who can gain a per.sonallzed perspective into the thoughts and feelings of this cross section of student freedom fighters Calendar July 29 Elmer Dickey. Tenor August 16 Senior Class NiglU Exercises August 18 Baccalaureate Exercises August 21 Commencement August 22 Classes End August 23 Final Examinations September 23 Freshman Orientation Week Begins September 30 Classes for Upper Classmen Begin 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. W. K.

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. Agriculture Extension Servi::e.

There ure. httwever. other I'ca- sons why more students do not support, as they do other activi- ties, the relli^lous programs of their Institutions uf higher learning. 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. As much a.s nuiny Individuals would like to disagree, they, how- ever, must concede that .students ire Influenced by, In some In- itances, the individuals who ure ilred to prepare tlieni to en- !o\mter and remove the obsta- cles they will eventimlly en- ounter In life. 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 If rules are to be effective and fifromhifi 4 Full- 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.

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 . . .

Jovr<^ rJrvant Visits (iainpiis When a few of the students 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 Saundra Chandler a Freshman who plays the piano, and is an Elementary maojr were the Oak- wood students who accompanied Miss Bryant, who is a sophomore at Oakwood College majoring in Elementary Education.

It should teach them not be be bored hacks, but to bo great, smart, able editors and reporters In the noble American tradition.

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. Gloria Moultrie Valet: "Sir. your car is at the door."

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, (Watch for facts about the Negro in every issue).

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).

September 13: The Graduate Record Examina- tions, required of applicants for admission to a number of grad- uate schools, will be adminis- tered at examination centers throughout the country four times in the coming year, Edu- cational Testing Service has an- nounced. During 1956-57 more than 12.000 students took the GRE in partial fulfillment of admission requirements of grad- uate scliools whicii prescribed it. This fall candidates may take the GRE on Saturday, Novem- ber 16. In 1958, the dates are January 18, April 26. and July 12. ETS advises each applicant to inquire of the graduate school of his choice which of the ex- aminations he should take and on which dates.

Broughton DD THE TICER'S ROAR 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 no points of credit are to be al- lowed for basic ROTC and phy- sical training, in which the only Champs Retired The old feeling of the World Series rang home again The victorious Milwaukee Braves shocked the nation.

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.

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.

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 Gamma Chi Elects Sweetheart For 1957 The Gamma Chi Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi began the school year by unanimously electing Jane Morgan as their Sweetheart for 1957-58.

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.

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.

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.

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.

In this statement by former Economic Cooperation Administrator Professor Milton Gatz lies the explanation both of the Importance and the lugency of broader di'volopment of political awareness, community consciousness, and a feeling of commitment to serve local voluntary and civic groups.

THE TIGER'S ROAR Febri 1958 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. LpUits Id Ihe Edilor Dear Sir: I have written a spiritual let- ter with all sincerity, which you will find enclosed.

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.

Sarah Keynolds 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.

V.,.-. <' -^'tnwssu win s i\ 11 \ 1N lER WON- rj l!,.>klM-., 1 crt siiuubound ill I' s now By Kay Frances Stripling 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 lice A, Powell, senior business educa- tion major, as Charlotte; Daniel Washington, senior English ma- jor, as Mr. Bingley; Pender Steele, senior mathematics ma- jor, as Miss Bingley; Harry Nevels. junior social science ma- jor, as Mr. Darcy: Robert Tindal, senior social science major, as Mr. Wicham: Carl Roberts, sen- ior social science major, as Mr, Collins; and Irene Davis, senior elementary education major, as Catherine DeBourgh- Josephine Berry, senior Eng- lish major, served as student di- rector.

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.

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- lish and the otlier humanities in the background. However. I think that more stress should be placed on them, although I realize the need lor more teach- ers in science and mathematics." 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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. W.

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).

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.

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?

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.

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.

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.

NAME ADDRESS- CITY -ZONE STATE_ "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.

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.

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. riiiisr: aki: somt: of tiu: scknks taken I>|TK1N(; TIIM NAA CONFAK HELD AT SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE I.

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.

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. 565 Enrolled at SSC This Suniiiier Ben Ingersoll.

"It would permit every dollar of the individual citizen intend- ed for scholarship purposes to be devoted exclusively to schol- arship purposes. And. finally. It would permit the continuing di- versity of support umont; Insti- tutions of many different kinds in every nook and cranny of Ihe country, a general support which gives strength to these institu- tions as a whole through the di- versity which It maintains." President Coles said that there would naturally have to be limi- tations upon the amounts which would be deducted from income tax payments by individuals giv- ing scholarship funds to institu- tions. The money given could not exceed the amount needed or that which the federal gov- ernment might ordinarily ap- propriate.

Ap- proximately forty .scholars, .sci- entl.st.s, and intellectual leadens from Asia and the Near Ea.st will come to four American universi- ties In the next five years for study and direct experience with American .scholarship and cul- ture, 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.

Trinity College Maps Plan lor Assislanlis 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."

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.

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.

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, . , ."

Students with or without financial need are invited to ap- ply. A Danforth Fellow is allow- ed to carry other scholarship appointments, such as Rhodes, Fulbrght, Woodrow Wilson. Mar- shall, etc.. concurrently with his Danforth Fellowship, and ap- plicants for these appointments are cordially invited to apply at the same time for a Danforth Fellowship. If a man received the Danforth Appointment, to- gether with a Rhodes Scholar- ship. Fulbright Scholarship, or Woodrow Wilson Fellowship, he becomes a Danforth Fellow with- out stipend, until these other relationships are completed. All Danforth Fellows will par- ticipate in the annual Danforth Foundation Conference on Teaching, to be held at Camp Mlniwanca in Michigan next September, 1959. The qualifications of the candidates as listed in the an- nouncement from the Founda- tion are; men of outstanding academic ability, personality. congenial to the classroom, and integrity and character, includ- ing serious inquiry within the Christian tradition.

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."

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," l.yroiiin Liiic-ii|> Is KcvrahMl By Yvonne o, Hooks When asked about the Lyceum Series for this .nchool year, Dr. Coleridge A.

By Emma Lue Jordan Freshmen, here are some hints concerning wardrobes from upperciassmen to calm your jitters, if you have any. What style should you wear now that you are in college? How large should your clothes budget be? I have assembled these wardrobe hints given by many upperciassmen. COATS : "This will be your biggest item." says Gwendolyn Riggs, a 19-year-old sophomore who hails from Savannah, Geor- gia. And versatility is the word to describe it, Gwendolyn sug- gests double breasted coat in 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, a 20-year-otd junior, is buying a black coat for herself this fall SEPARATES: "Keep the num- 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. ^TIGERS ROAR SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE SAVANNAH, GEORGIA i)ect'inhfT. f'XSES SAVANNAH.

Mr, Scott, a capable and well-experlenced recruiter, has been in the public relations field for eleven years.

The Public Relations Director and Associate Editor stayed in Atlanta three days and visited two high schools daily. Other representatives from neighboring college campuses were on the three-day recruiting tour. With the need for higher edu- cation becoming more acute, re- cruiting has become a major program on all college campuses Because of college recruiting programs, high school students are given a chance to attain first-hand information about the college of their choice.

Tif;rrr< ii'i\i: December. 195u 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, Dr, W, K, Payne Til lifvor Hoar STAFF Editor-ln-Chief Shermnn Robersou Associate Editor ,.,, Jiunes Novels News Editor Kay Stripling Feature Editor Sarah Reynolds Sports Editors Jtimes Douse and Eddlo Bryant Proofreader janle Baker Lay-out Manager Eleanor Jolmson Business Manager Theodore Ware Circulation Manager Rosco Camp Secretary Msuidestine Jones Business Staff Cohnnnists Reporters Emma Lue Jordan, James Stubbs.

The Editor. By James N. Nevels 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.

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. The Editor 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. The article is condensed from Mayfair.

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.

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.

Union College lo Hold Aunnal Snninier Session Schenectady, N. Y. (I. P.) With the approval of a grant from the General Electric Com- pany's Educational and Charit- able Fun. Union College recently launched preparations for the 15th annual summer session of the General Electric Science Peliowsliip Program, the oldest industry-college cooperative edu- cational venture of its kind in the nation. Under the terms of the Com- pany's latest grant, fifty ex- pense-paid fellowsliips. valued collectively at more tlian $50,000, will be awarded to science teach- ers from tliirteen Eastern Sea- board states for six weeks of graduate training next summer on Union's campus. Comprising the curriculum will be two graduate level courses in chem- istry and two in pliysics. Pioneered at Union College during the summer of 1945. the General Electric Science Fellow- ship Program was either the direct forerunner or the proto- type of the many similar science institutes now held each sum- mer at colleges and universities in all parts of the nation. Union, wliicli was chosen as the pilot college in the program because of its ". . , high academic standing and its proximity to the research and plant facilities at Schenectady." now shares the General Electric fellowship grants with six other colleges.

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.

By James N. Nevels 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. The United States views Cuba with skeptical but hopeful eyes- 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 Beach Hotel; Tuesday, a night- club party at the Caribe Hilton; Thursday afternoon, a govern- ment-sponsored picnic on the beach of the San Juan Inter- continental; Friday evening, a special dinner at La Concha: Sunday, an aquacade buffet dinner and election of College Weeks Queen at the San Juan Intercontinental.

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.

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.

Scenes From "Antigone' SSC Ahmmi Are Active By Prince Jackson, Jr. A Savannah State College Alumni Chapter was organized in Macon, Georgia, on February 22. John Jordan, Jr. ("49), was elected Acting President, and Mrs. E. M.

Mr. Jackson is scheduled to address the Alumni Chapter in Madison, Georgia, sometime in March. Mrs, Marie B, Martin is president of tliis group. 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. Freshiiiaii Clas-. Preseiils "A Niglil of Talent" By Roseoe Camp The freshman class presented "A Night of Talent," February 12. at 7:30 p.m. in Meldrim Audi- torium. Students who partici- pated in the show included those from Beach High School and Savannah State College. The winners were as follows: Willie Roundtree took first place with his rendition of "Tear Drops on Your Letter." Wilhe Dukes and Elijah McGraw took second place for the best comedy acts, and third place went to "The Cubans" who sang "Danny Boy." Leford Tobias was Master of Ceremonies. March. 1959 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. 'Antigone" Draws f Continued from Page 2} 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. 9^ Page 5 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.

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 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.

College Minister, wa.s honored by Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity at Its con- 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 became the bride of Robert Miles March 21, 1959.

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. JAMES N. NEVELS, Associate Editor Cotip'otuldtioiis to ""iMan of Year^^ Gen. Charles de GaulJe: We may well go to the moon, but that's not very far.

Ex-Seuator"'s Advice (( tmtinned Iroiii Page II 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. Benton's article launches a new Digest "special request" feature, in which popular articles previously published in the magazine will be reprinted. 'Young Man, Be Your Own Boss!

Nevels 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?"

April. 1959 THE TIGERS ROAR 103 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.

Thus he com- 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 Williams" book is underscored by 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 enter the teaching profession. Robert MacDonald. in fact, will use his prize money for graduate school where he will work to- ward his ambition of becoming one of the "good professors."

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.

Under her guidance, even the most shy and reticent children blossom out.

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."

Reprint Reader's Digest 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. - Quoted by O.

She must know her metier de femme, and have a fine touch for the affections. It is more Important that a person should talk plea.santly of common friends and the thou.sand and one nothings of the day, than that she should .speak with the tongues of men and angels; for a while together by the fire hapijens more frequently in marrlape than the presence of a distinguished foreigner to dinner, Dutton (.'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. Yale University Press 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. " Dutton 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.

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 Gray, senior, social science major. Tifton; Edith White, senior, business education major, Hilton Head: Ethel Frazier. in- structor, Ludowici; Christine Welcome, senior, social science major, Ludowici; Eula Lamar. Maggie Califf High School. Gray; 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. Miss Clommle S. McAllster, Mr. WillU- \V. hrlKlU and AIIn tlie elass uf 'RK, eiil wvdilliiti i>ake Instructor at Warren ton Ele- mentary and High School, Warrenton, Georgia, gave a demonstration In the area of natural science.

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.

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. You can light either end Get satisfying fIavor...So friendly 1o your tasie! .." "-..

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.
