Tili n( The Ti e cr' Roar, S The General Education Pro- gram proposes to provide oppor- tunities for all students to ac- quire the basic skills, attitudes, habits, appreciations and under- standings requisite for the good life. It seeks to guarantee to all students competency in commu- nication and thinking. It further proposes to orient students to- ward and to sensitize them to human and universal good and to the worth and dignity of every human being. At this college the general cur- riculum is preoccupied with the major disciplines that: 1. Acquaint the students with broad areas of knowledge and human experience; Give them an understand- ing of themselves, their cul- ture and physical environ- ment. 3. Provide the students with a sound intellectual and moral foundation upon which character and pro- fessional and vocational opportunities may rest. The program is concerned generally with freshman and sophomore students. However, some attention is devoted to stu- dents on the junior and senior level of their intellectual matu- ration. In this respect, general education is an integral phase of the experience of all students who matriculate for a degree at the College. The General Education Pro- gram is under the general super- vision of the Genera] Education Committee and the Coordinator of General Education. The Com- mittee consists of students and faculty members. Divisional And Departmental Programs Division of Business Administration Haytvard S. Anderson, Chairman The main purpose of the Division of Busi- ness Administration is to afford students a sound educational foundation for socially ef- rfj < ^5j lective. gainful work in the business world 9r^~ $ Specifically, through cumcular offerings, su- ^^ pervised work experience, and individual coun- \r^* seling this division prepares students for: (1) \^ L, ^ employment as bookkeepers, accountants, sec- ^^^^^^^H retaries, stenographers, and salesmen; (2) op- ^^^L ^^| eration, management, and ownership of busi- ness enterprises; <3> teaching business sub- jects in the secondary school; (41 further study in accounting, busi- ness economics, general business, secretarial science, and business education. To realize these aims the division offers courses leading to the degree of Bachelor of Business Administration, and a terminal pro- gram leading to a certificate of proficiency. DEGREE PROGRAMS A student in business administration may pursue a major in one of three areas: (1) general business administration, (2) economics, and (3) secretarial science. The total quantitative requirement for the degree in this division is 195 quarter hours. The total includes a common general education sequence and a major-minor concen- tration. The student may elect a major-minor concentration within this division or a major in this divis,on and, with express approval of the Chairman of this division, a related minor in another division. Everyone who undertakes work toward a degree in the Division of Business Administration must confer with his adviser during each quarter, regarding choice of courses. Specifically, every busi- ness administration major must have the written approval of the chairman of this division before registering in junior and senior courses. Persons desiring to become certified as teachers of business and distributive education subjects in the secondary school must meet requirements set up by the Division of Teacher Education and Cer- tification. A minimum of 45 hours in business education courses and 46 hours in professional education courses are required in addi- tion to the general education courses. The approved program for teachers of business subjects is listed under caption of the Depart- ment of Secondary Education. September 17, 1965 THE TIGER'S ROAR Page 3 Division of Education Dr. Calvin L. Kiah, Chairman The Division of Education at Savannah State College is a member of the Association of Colleges for Teachers Education. It offers twelve curricula in teacher preparation and a program of basic training for teacher-libra- rians. These programs are approved by the State Department of Education. This means that satisfactory completion of any program brings automatic certification in the field of study pursued. A person majoring in Education at Savannah State College is the concern of every division and department of the College, there- The essential aim of the De- partment of Health, Physical Education and Recreation is to afford professional training for pre-service and in-service teach- ers of health, physical education. and recreation in the elementary and secondary schools. A parallel aim is advisement. The aim is to provide for all students instruc- tion in the basic principles of health and recreational activity in Education, with a concentra- tion in health, physical educa- tion, and recreation. In addition, for all students enrolled in teacher education curricula at Savannah State Col- lege, this department provides basic training in supervision of one or more phases of a compre- hensive health, physical educa- tion, and recreation program in the schools of Georgia. This phase of the work is provided either in selected specialized courses or in a minor sequence. Further, for all students enrolled at the college, this department provides instruction in the fun- damental concepts and activities of health, physical education, and recreation as an essential phase of general education. Finally, this department serves the college community through instruction and leadership in the intramural program. The intra- mural program is, in effect, a laboratory in which students en- joy practicing the skills learned in general service courses and relish competing with their peers. fore, the resources and facilities-as well as the interest and efforts of the entire institution, are at his disposal. Aside from a strong academic classroom program in general, specialized, and professional education, the teaching major at Savannah State College has rich, varied, and meaningful laboratory experience which brings one into constant contact with children and youth. College-Wide Provision For Teacher Education The Division comprises three departments: the Department of Elementary Education; the Department of Health, Physical Educa- tion and Recreation; and the Department of Secondary Education. The preparation of teachers is. however, a college-wide commitment. Because every division and department at the College is involved in training teachers in some subject matter field, this function engages the constant interest and efforts, staff resources, and facilities of the entire institution. Department of Health, Physical Education and Recreation Division of Humanities Dr. Forrest O. Wiggins, Chairman Philosophy and Purposes The humanities embrace those skills, un- derstandings, and appreciations which make tor a well-rounded, happy lite The humanities are concerned with humane values, exalting the life of man. This, the impact of mind upon mind great minds of the past upon sensitive minds of the present constantly points the way to the good life. Specifically, the Division of Humanities provides opportunity for study and analyses of the language, literature, art, and music of the world The study and analyses are aimed at motivating the student to expand his aesthetic horizon, to enliven his spirit of mventive- needed for wholesome living. In pursuance of the foregoing aims, this Department provides a four-fold program of instruc- tion. For students who plan to become professional workers in the field of health, physical ed- ucation, and recreation either in schools or in other agencies the department offers a se- quence of specialized training to the degree of Bachelor of Science Page 4 THE TIGER'S ROAR September 17, 1965 Department of Music WaflL ness and individuality, and to acquire a finer appreciation and understanding of the human spirit. This division comprises the Department of English, the Depart- ment of Fine Arts, and the Department of Modern Languages. Department of English The aims of the Department of English are: ill to develop proficiency in oral and written language; (2) to assist in devel- oping an appreciation for good literature; (3) to encourage a deep perceptiveness of mind, to make it more flexible and in- quisitive; (4) to reveal the op- eration of the human spirit in our civilization. The ultimate aim of the department is a qual- ity of mind, rather than a mere accumulation of information. The student who has success- fully pursued English as his ma- jor subject is expected to dem- onstrate a facility in distin- guishing between that which is genuinely great and that which is less great in literature and human values. He should have more than a passing acquain- tance with a representative num- ber of masterpieces in English. American, and world literature. He should have adequate facil- ity, taste, and understanding in expression; and he should have knowledge of principal literary genres, periods, and authors. PLAN OF STUDY All freshman students are given a placement test in Eng- lish. They are then grouped on the basis of achievement in the test. Superior students may be permitted to register in Humani- ties 102. Others are assigned to appropriate sections of Humani- ties 101. Before advancing to Humanities 102 all students must clearly satisfy stated minimum standards in speaking and writ- ing, A student majoring in English language and literature will complete fifty - eight quarter hours in language, composition, literature, and speech offered by the Department of English. One taking a minor in English will complete thirty quarter hours. Not more than one course in composition may be taken at a time. The curriculum for prospective teachers of English in the secon- dary school is listed under cap- tion of the Department of Sec- ondary Education. In the area of music, the De- partment of Fine Arts at Savan- nah State College offers a major program leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Music Education and two minor pro- grams one for prospective teachers in the secondary schools and a non-teaching program. All of the curricula have been ap- proved by the three national ac- crediting agencies The Music Teachers National Association, the National Association of Schools of Music and the Music Educators National Conference, as well as by the State Board of Certification and the Board of Regents of the University Sys- tem of Georgia. Courses include intensive work in theory, history and literature, performance, applied music, con- ducting and music education. Al- though 75 hours are required for state certification, a total of 82 hours constitutes the four-year music requirement at the Col- lege. Previous training of at least two years in any applied area is required of all prospective ma- jors, but skilled aptitude is rec- ognized and accepted in lieu of this requirement if necessary. Most majors must pursue four years of training in piano, voice, or another instrument as well as the same amount of time in their applied major area. In ad- dition to the music courses, all candidates for a degree take a large complement of courses in general education and the pro- fessional sequences. The five musical organizations The Marching Band. The Con- cert Band, The Choral Society, The Women's Glee Club and The Men's Glee Club are each di- rected by a full-time faculty member and provide ample op- portunity for students inside and outside of the department to re- ceive experiences in public per- formance which range from pro- grams on the campus at assem- blies, church services, vespers, and special programs, to local television appearances, concerts in the community, athletic games away from home, and concert tours in several states. One of the most important op- erations in this department is the awarding each year of a number of scholarships, called grants-in-aid, which are given to capable, worthy applicants in all organizations upon recom- mendation of the department. Depending upon the aptitude, academic standing, and financial need of the student, these awards are sufficient at times to provide tuition for a full year. Grants are made, however, only to applicants who file the neces- sary forms, are recommended by the department, and are ap- proved by the Committee on Scholarships. Recipients, encour- aged to apply in the spring, are usually notified during the sum- mer, well in advance of the open- ing of the Fall Quarter. As for facilities, the Depart- ment at the present time occu- pies the entire third floor of Hill Hall and the Morgan Hall Annex, but plans have just been com- pleted for the construction of a new Fine Arts Building which will house the entire Depart- ment. The present facilities pro- vide space for classes, organiza- tional rehearsals, practice peri- ods, listening room, and offices. Pianos are provided for practice, and band instruments are pro- vided, both without charge. Com- plete uniforms, robes, stoles, and blazers are also furnished to members of the various organi- zations. For any additional informa- tion concerning the Department, please feel free to address your inquiries to Dr. Coleridge A. Braithwaite. Chairman, Depart- ment of Fine Arts, Savannah State College.

September 17, 1965 THE TIGER'S ROAR Page 5 A Career in Ail Can Have Many Rewards The rewards can be great for a person with or without "artis- tic talent." To gain these re- wards, one needs only the desire to learn and a good place in which to learn. The Art Depart- ment at Savannah State College provides students with an ade- quate environment for learning. If one has the desire, then he can progress at Savannah State College. The Art Department is located in new quarters, especially de- signed and equipped with mod- ern studios and lecture rooms being brought up-to-date, mak- ing it possible to teach the latest use of books and methods in lithography, etching, serigraphy, ceramic, sculpture, and painting. Students who have studied art at Savannah State College have <-eaped many rewards. Some e won large sums of money rt competition. Some are en- iig the success of exhibiting ,_-ir art at qualified galleries. One former student is in the Pentagon in Washington. D. C where he is using the knowledge of art acquired here. Others have successful careers as teach- ers of art. And. still others have gone on to more advanced studies in schools throughout the country. Art students at Savannah State College occasionally have opportunities of getting first- hand experience, as a number of art jobs of short duration come into the Art Department. There are some jobs of a more perma- nent nature waiting to be filled. The Art Department is pre- pared and eager to help students in many ways. The rewards can be plentiful for those who are seeking; and when they acquire a Bachelor of Science Degree in Art Education, they will find that rewards other than salary, position, dignity, or fame await them. They may learn, ulti- mately, to enrich their lives with things which do not pass so quickly; for, to know and to be able to enjoy knowing is indeed a divine reward. tors of medicine cannot be over stressed WE NEED TRAINED DOC- TORS TODAY. We also need other health personnel, dentists, nurses, pharmacists, etc. 2> WE NEED TRAINED CHEMISTS. We need the trained chemists to help us live better; develop new prod- ucts for human consumption; work in our defense plants, and m many other ways. 3) WE NEED TRAINED BIOLOGISTS. We need the trained biologists to help others to understand the living organ- isms within our environment; for research work in medicine, den- tistry, and other areas including health. 4) WE NEED TRAINED MATHEMATICIANS AND PHYSICISTS. The Space Age, the launch- ing of satellites, preparation of machines for defense purposes, are only a few reasons why we need men well prepared in mathematics and physics. The Division of Natural Sciences and Mathematics attempts to prepare and implement good teaching programs in the areas of mathematics and the natural sciences. It cooperates with the other divisions of the College and the Administration in the preparation of the total school program. The objectives of this Division may be stated as; (1) to provide for all students that knowledge which is essential to an understand- ing of the scientific basis of living, together with an appreciation of the contributions to the sciences to the cultural heritage; (2) to train persons adequately through the media of advanced courses for entry into the professional study of dentistry, medicine, and nursing' (3i to prepare persons to teach the natural sciences and mathematics in the secondary schools, or to continue study on the graduate level; (4) to provide service courses for students concen- trating in other divisions of the College. Department of Modern Languages The Department of Modern Languages offers instruction in three languages: French, Ger- man and Spanish. The primary aim of the members of the De- partment is to teach the student to understand, speak, read and write these languages so that he may communicate with others who speak them. This instruc- tion is carried on in daily reci- tations in the classroom and also in a modern twenty booth labor- atory where the students can in- crease their proficiency by lis- tening to and repeating exercises of various types especially pre- pared for this purpose. For stu- dents who wish to develop more than an elementary proficiency in French or Spanish, the De- partment offers courses leading to a minor in either language. It also offers courses leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Education with a concentration either in French or Spanish. Outside of the field of educa- tion, a person with a major in a foreign language can find em- ployment in several areas. First, there is the area of organizations more or less international in character. Because of the nature of its work, there is almost a constant demand at the United Nations Headquarters for men and women who are proficient in foreign languages. Division of Natural Sciences Dr. Booker T. Griffith, Chairman The Division of Natural Sciences is one of the major areas of instruction at Savannah State College. This division is staffed by well qualified personnel as a whole, people who have had long experience in the teaching pro- fession, and graduates from some of the best universities in this country. All of the staff members are very well acquainted with the problems of our present-day youth. Savannah State College, through its Divi- sion of Natural Sciences, is ready to continue helping young people to prepare themselves for living. Some of the offerings are 1) PREMEDICAL WORK. In this age when health is being given priority in our thinking, the need for well trained doc- Department The aims of the Department of Biology are (1) to provide for all students that knowledge which is essential to an understanding of the biological basis of living; (2) to train persons adequately through the media of advanced courses for entry into the profes- sional study of dentistry, medi- cine, and nursing; (3) to prepare persons to teach the biological sciences in the secondary school of Biology or to continue study on the grad- uate level. In addition to the required general courses, this department offers courses leading to the de- gree of Bachelor of Science with a major in biology. This depart- ment offers also a minor. The Biology Department is proud of its achievements during the last several years. It takes great pride in reviewing the rec- ords of some of its graduates. The Department of Chemistry has grown by leaps and bounds in the past few years. The teach- ing staff, teaching space and equipment have been increased one hundred per cent. The Department has been quite successful in obtaining funds from Chemical Societies. and the National Science Foun- dation to sponsor several signifi- cant programs such as the In- Service Institute for teachers of Chemistry and General Science in secondary education and the Summer Science Program for se- lected high school students. Many research projects are carried out by the students in cooperation with the Depart- ment's active research program. The Department feels that re- search projects serve as good preparation for more highly de- veloped and specialized research than the students will encounter Department of Chemistry in graduate school. The research program serves as an outlet of expression of the student's sci- entific interest and capabilities other than in the classroom and gives him experience in employ- ing the scientific method in problem solving. The Department of Chemistry provides basic training for higher education-work leading to the Master of Science and Ph.D. degrees. In addition to this it provides all of the chemistry needed in pre-nursing, pre-den- tal and pre-medical education. The curriculum has been re- vised so that the student will receive a substantial number of courses in mathematics, physics. and biology which will aid him in becoming a better chemist. The Department believes in creativity, freedom of explora- tion, productivity, hard work, and recreation. Page 6 THE TIGER'S ROAR September 17, 1965 Department of Mathematics and Physics The Mathematics curriculum and courses are being continu- ally revised to keep in step with the recommendations released by the School Mathematics Study Group in 1960. The text- books, course outlines, and other materials are continuously being changed in order to meet today's challenge. The Physics courses are designed to give emphasis to the PSSC recommendations for college Physics. The objectives of the depart- ment are not only to prepare better teachers of Mathematics and Physics, but also to provide them with the courses necessary to do further study in areas like linear programming and com- puting, statistical research, elec- tronics, guided missiles, engi- neering, mathematics for various phases of industry research, ac- tuary science, and over twenty branches of governmental serv- Division of Social Sciences Dr. E.

THE CHOICE OF A MAJOR In conformance with the foregoing aims this division provides two curricula, each of which leads to the B. S. degree with a major in the social sciences. The program for persons who plan to teach social studies in the secondary school is listed under the caption of the Department of Secondary Education. The curricula of this division are designed for those who defi- nitely do not wish to qualify for a certificate to teach in the secon- dary school. Persons interested in careers in: law, government serv- ice, Young Men's Christian Association. Urban League work, diplo- matic service, and research in general, should choose Curriculum I, with the history concentration. Persons interested in careers as social workers, probation officers, vocational counselors, camp coun- selors, employment interviewers, juvenile court workers, and officials in the immigration service, should choose Curriculum II, with a con- centration in sociology, leading to the professional study of social work. This division discourages substitutions for the required courses in the concentration. When such approval is granted, it must be reviewed and approved by the Dean of Faculty before becoming effective. There are students enrolled in these courses living in all parts of Georgia, Florida, South Carolina, and Alabama; and we have students registered from New York, New Jersey, Washington, D. C. The Home Study Department is directed toward two objectives: The first is to provide a service for those persons who cannot under- take residence instruction, and the second is to provide an enriching program for those who do not require residence instruction for per- sonal growth and enrichment. Extension classes are provided upon sufficient demand. Division of Technical Sciences Dr. Clyde W. Hall, Chairman ORGANIZATION AND DEGREE PROGRAMS The Division of Technical Sciences com- prises instructional programs in engineering technology, home economics, and industrial teacher education. Instructional activities are organized within the Department of Engineer- ing Technology and the Department of Home Economics. The former offers courses leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science, with majors in building construction technology, electronics technology, and mechanical tech- nology. The latter offers courses leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science with a major in foods, nutrition, and institution management, and a major in textiles and clothing. BASIC PREPARATION FOR TECHNICAL EDUCATION Offerings of this division are, in the main, designed to fit gradu- ates for immediate employment as professional and semi-profes- sional workers in technical home economics and engineering tech- nology. Intensive training for careers in these areas presupposes a good foundation in applied sciences. Accordingly, thorough high school preparation in physics, algebra, plane geometry, trigonome- try, and industrial shop is essential for all who plan to study engi- neering technology. A knowledge of chemistry is essential for those who go into technical home economics. INDUSTRIAL TEACHER EDUCATION A previously noted, industrial teacher education is also a func- tion of the Division of Technical Sciences. Specifically, this division offers the required shop work and special subject preparation for students who plan to teach industrial arts and trade and industrial subjects. The industrial arts education program does not prepare graduates for employment as skilled or semi-skilled workers in in- dustry. On the contrary, it provides instruction in a variety of in- dustrial shop activities. This instruction, augmented by appropriate general and professional education, prepares graduates to teach industrial arts in the secondary school. The trade and industrial education program is designed for those who plan to teach trade and industrial subjects on a vocational basis in the secondary school. In order to pursue this program one must have already learned a trade and worked in industry for two years as a journey- man at the trade he is preparing to teach. The industrial arts edu- cation and trade and industrial education curricula are listed under caption of the Division of Education. Division of Home Study William E. Griffin, Chairman (Retired 1965) The Division of Home Study encompasses Instructional programs in Business Adminis- tration, Economics, Education, English. Geog- raphy, Government, History, Humanities, Mathematics, Psychology, Social Science, and Sociology. These courses are offered for those persons who are interested in furthering their education, but are unable to do so in residence. The Home Study Department is authorized to operate the following programs: 1. College Correspondence Study 2. Extension Classes Department of Engineering Technology Engineering technology em- braces the physical sciences, mathematics, and the practices of modern industry which are utilized in the design and manu- facture of the machines, struc- tures, power sources, communi- cation systems, and materials needed to maintain a highly civ- ilized society. The activities of engineering technology are con- cerned with translating the con- cepts and theories of profes- sional engineers and scientists into actual devices and products by using laboratory tests to pro- vide data and preparation of working drawings for use by skilled craftsmen who produce the devices and products. Thus, to prepare men and women with technical knowledge and skills essential to modern society, the Department of Engi- neering Technology offers courses in building construction, electronics, and mechanical technology. Each of the follow- ing programs leads to the degree of Bachelor of Science. September 17, 1965 THE TIGER'S ROAR BUILDING CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGY The curriculum in building construction technology is de- signed to provide ample instruc- tion in those areas of knowledge required for successful perform- ance in these capacities: Architectural and Structural Draftsman and Designer plans, designs, and supervises construc- tion of frame, steel, and concrete structures: makes architectural inspections and appraisals for architects and builders. Construction Surveyor does topographic mapping, calculates land areas; executes surveys of construction projects. Estimator determines quanti- ties and costs of materials and labor required to erect struc- tures. Materials Tester determines mechanical properties of mate- rials used in the erection of structures. Department of Home Economics Curricula in the Department of Home Economics afford training leading to the degree of Bache- lor of Science with a major in clothing and textiles, and in foods, nutrition, and institution management. The program is directed to- ward two major objectives. The first of these is to enhance the general education of the student through a core curriculum for common learning. The core cur- riculum has three aims: (1) de- velopment of the student as a person, 121 preparation for fam- ily life, and (3t preparation for the responsibilities of citizenship in its broadest sense. The second major objective is preparation of the student to enter and advance with assurance and competence in one of the various professions in home economics. The Department of Home Ec- onomics offers, also, two-year terminal courses in dressmaking and tailoring and in food pro- duction and cookery. These courses are of particular interest to college students who desire immediate specialized prepara- tion for employment prior to completing the four-year degree program. A person completing the terminal course is granted a certificate of proficiency. PRE-PROFESSIONAL MOTIVA- TION AND ENRICHMENT The perspective of students in this department is broadened and enriched through required field trips, junior interneships. and experience affiliations with selected food service institutions and social welfare and textile merchandising establishments. The student defrays the cost of all local and special trips. Activities Savannah State College puts great emphasis upon a rich and varied religious life program. Through its religious activities, the College seeks to develop an understanding of and an appre- ciation for the place of religion in everyday living, to deepen spiritual insight, and to make the practice of Christian princi- ple a vital part of the life of the well educated citizen. Religious life activities are di- rected by the College Minister. The Sunday School, Y.M.C.A. and Y.W.C.A., the Newman Club, and the annual Religious Em- phasis Week provide opportuni- ties for religious growth and de- velopment under the supervision of the Religious Life Committee. Savannah State College con- tributes to the attainment of a well-rounded education by pro- DR ROBERT D. REID DEAN OF FACULTY viding many opportunities for students to participate in a wide range of organized groups. Pro- grams are planned for the social, religious, and cultural advance- ment of the college community. The Student Council, composed of representatives of all classes, work with the administration in the government of the College. It works also with the various campus organizations and spon- sors projects for the general wel- fare of the student body. The Tiger's Roar, official stu- dent newspaper, is published ev- ery six weeks by students under the supervision of the Public Re- lations Office. The following organizations also provide media for expres- sion of student interest: Art Club, Business Club, Camera Club, Collegiate Counselors, Cre- ative Dance Group, Debating Club, Dormitory Councils, Eco- nomics Club, Newman Club, Sa- vannah State College Players Guild, Social Science Club. Stu- dent Loan Association, Tiger's Roar, Trade Association, Usher's Club, Varsity Club, Future Teachers of America INEA), Home Economics Club, Veterans Club, Y.M.C.A., Y.W.C.A., and the Women's Council. The following national social fraternities are organized on the campus: Alpha Phi Alpha, Ome- ga Psi Phi, Phi Beta Sigma, and Kappa Alpha Psi. The following national social sororities are organized on the campus: Alpha Kappa Alpha, Sigma Gamma Rho, Zeta Phi Beta, and Delta Sigma Theta. The national honor societies, Alpha Kappa Mu, Beta Kappa Chi, and Alpha Phi Gamma Journalism Society, have chap- ters on the campus. The Department of Health and Physical Education conducts a well-rounded intramural athletic program of seasonal activities for men and women. Utilizing group games and various sports for their full educational values, the program features football, basketball, track and field hockey, and badminton, A member of the Southern Athletic Conference, Savannah State College maintains compe- tition in all sports sponsored by the conference. The College also holds mem- bership in two national athletic associations, N.S.A.A. and N.A.I.A. To complement formal educa- tion on the campus, the college provides many activities for cul- tural enrichment. Student as- semblies, institutes, motion pic- tures, lectures, art exhibitions, dramatics, forums, athletic con- tests, hobby groups, and tours contribute to the general welfare of the community. Dr. E. K. Williams, Coordinator of General Education The primary responsibility of the coordinator involves the gen- eral supervision and administra- tion of the general education program. This program attempts to develop the basic skills, knowledge, ideas and attitudes that are required for successful living for all students. To this end, the coordinator is concerned with providing the leadership for the implementation of the fun- damental principles of general education.

We must prepare ourselves now to meet, cope with, and re- solve the many dilemmas which will eventually determine the "fate of the universe." As we prepare ourselves to meet the demands and responsi- bilities during this rapidly changing era, let us be ever mindful that Savannah State College is our Alma Mater; it is to her that we owe our loyalty as we owe our allegiance to our country. Therefore, may we strive and let our every action represent Savannah State in a manner that she will be looked upon with dignity and admira- tion as one of the finest institu- tions of higher learning. The students are responsible for the existence of any institu- tion of learning; the type of stu- dents can very well determine the type of institution. With the ultimate purpose of having Sa- vannah State one of the finest institutions, let all of us take advantage of the available in- struction here, using this instruc- tion wisely with the purpose of developing within ourselves the symmetrical characteristics of fine students. As we focus our purpose and consider our responsibilities, as students let us always be cogni- zant of the responsibility of ex- pressing freely, with prudence, constructive suggestions and criticisms which we feel will en- hance the development of the institution and its students. The Student Council serves as a median between the students and administration. It is there- fore necessary that the opinions and ideas of all students be con- sidered discreetly. We ask for your full support and coopera- tion during the 1965-66 term. Let our every effort be directed to- ward making this year the best in the history of our Alma Mater. On behalf of myself and the entire college family, I extend a hearty welcome with sincere con- gratulations and best wishes for your personal success and social usefulness here at Savannah State College.

PRESIDENT, SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE Homecoming Set For October 30 Miss SSC To Be Crowned Tonight Once again friends, visitors and alumni will gather from var- ious parts of the country to hail SSC on her seventy - fourth Homecoming. The student body has chosen for its theme "Re- member When." I am quite sure that you can remember many things. Remember when SSC's College Center wasn't filled with automatic machines? Remember when derbies were the style? Remember when Patricia Brown campaigned for Miss SSC 1 Once one starts remembering he is able to recall many things. This year Miss Patricia Brown will reign as Miss SSC. She is a senior social science major from Metter, Georgia. The four lovely attendants have been selected from the various classes. They are Miss Lillian Hill, a senior So- cial Science major from Madi- son, Georgia; Miss Dorothy Mc- Phatter, a junior mathematics major from Statesboro, Georgia; Miss Doris Bennett, a sophomore Business Education major from Ocilla, Georgia; and Miss Audrey Harper, a freshman Social Sci- ence major from Hartwell, Geor- gia. The Homecoming festivities will begin on Thursday with the Coronation Ball, at which time we will have the crowning of Miss SSC and the presentation of her court. On Friday night the student body will bury Albany State's football team. The fu- neral service will be followed by a barn fire on the athletic field. The Homecoming parade will in- clude floats, cars and marching units. In it one may see the charming Miss SSC and attend- ants and many other lovely queens representing classes, so- rorities, fraternities, clubs nd other organizations. The parade will begin at 10:30 on East Broad Street, thence north to East Oglethorpe Avenue, west on Oglethorpe Avenue to Montgom- ery street, south on Montgomery street to west 38th street and disband. The Homecoming game will be played at Grayson Stadium at 2:00 p.m. The Fighting Tigers will meet the Albany State Rams in what we hope will be a "Bloody Mary" victory for the Tigers, Half time performances will be given by the Marching Tigers and Albany State bands. Other halftime activities will in- clude the presentation of Miss SSC, Miss Albany State, Miss Alumni (local and national), and their court. Immediately following the game the alumni will meet in the college center. The annual Homecoming dance will be held in Willcox gymnasium at 8:00 p.m. With this we close the cur- tains until next year when once again we'll "Hail thee SSC." MISS SSC AND ATTENDANTS.

Student Council To Revise Constitution SSC Receives $500 Gift According to Dr. Howard Jor- dan, Jr., President of Savannah State College, Paul Donner, President of the Donner Packing Company Racing Stable of Mil- waukee, Wisconsin, has donated $500 to the NDEA Scholarship Fund at Savannah State College to be used as matching funds. Under the National Defense Ed- ucation Act Scholarship Fund, the federal government will match every dollar donated with nine dollars, making it possible for Savannah State College to extend loans to worthy students who might not be able to attend college otherwise. Mr, Donner is an outstanding community leader in Milwaukee, highly respected by the member- ship of the United States Trot- ting Association, and a gentle- DEFEAT THE GOLDEN RAMS man in every sense of the word. He is long-time friend of Dr. and Mrs. E. J. Dean of Savannah, Georgia. Dr. Dean is Chairman of the Social Science Depart- ment at Savannah State College. The gift to Savannah State Col- lege by Mr. Donner was made possible through the Deans. Mr. Donner campaigns one of the most successful harness horse stables in the country. "Cheer Honey," one of the first trotting fillies to win $100,000 in a single season, is owned by Mr. Donner. In 1965, the Donner Stable's outstanding winners are : "Mary Donner," co-cham- pion, two-year-old trotting filly, and "Ripping Good," one of the nation's outstanding pacing stal- lions. Savannah State College is in- deed fortunate to be the recipi- ent of generosity of one of the outstanding citizens of this country. Dennis Polite s 65 SSC Graduate Awarded Library Scholarship Dr. Howard Jordan, Jr., Presi- dent of Savannah State College, reveals that Dennis Polite, a June graduate of Savannah State College, has been awarded an all-expense scholarship for library studies at Atlanta Uni- versity, Atlanta, Georgia, for the 1965-66 regular and summer ses- sions. The announcement of the $1,750.00 scholarship was made in a carbon copy letter addressed to Dr. Jordan from Mrs. Virginia L. Jones, Dean of the Graduate School of Library Service at At- lanta University. In the carbon copy letter sent to Dr. Jordan, it was stated that the scholarships "are granted to young people who show promise of developing into leaders in the library profession." Polite, a mathematics major and English minor, was gradu- ated second honor in a class of 162. In addition to being an active participant in college-student activities, Polite is a member of the Newman Club; Alpha Kappa Mu Tutorial Society; Beta Kappa Xi National Scientific Society; Physico - Mathematical Associa- tion; and writer of sports arti- cles for the Savannah Morning News. When questioned about his go- ing into the field of librarian- ship, Polite said. "I have always felt that libraries play a vital role in our society, and I am happy that I shall be able to combine my background in sci- ence and belle-lettres for the purpose of becoming an infor- mation specialist." The Student Council is pres- ently undergoing plans for revis- ing or amending certain portions nf the present Constitution. Ac- tion of this nature will affect and depend on you, the students. Therefore it is the purpose of the Council to inform you as to (1) reasons for revisions, (2) benefits to be received, (31 ad- vantages over present provisions, 1 4) process of amending present systems with tentative dates. Such an amendment will take a popular vote of at least two- thirds of the student body. There are several reasons for suggesting revisions. Among those the most important ones are (a) to increase student rep- resentation, (b) to form a stu- dent government having a con- gess rather than a student coun- cil, and (c) to extend the func- tion and capability of a working Student Congress. Benefits that can be cited are: (a) more involvement of all classes in student government, Opportunity to share in the work of the government; le- galizing desired or eliminating or replacing arbitrary functions. Advantages over present pro- visions: (a) greater working force with more representation, (bi experience in governmen- tal procedures, (c> a check and balance sys- tem between Congress and Stu- dent Body president, avoiding arbitrary measures. Process of amending and ten- tative dates. An amendment to the consti- tution requires a two-thirds vote of the entire student body. The suggested time for voting is Monday, December 10, 1965, and if passed, to come into effect January 1, 1966, with Congress convening at a banquet with the President of the college giving a "State of the College Address" in early January. The amendment states in es- sence: The government of the college shall be the student government of Savannah State College, con- sisting of a Congress and student government president with his cabinet. The Congress shall consist of eight representatives from each class (Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior) giving a to- tal of thirty-two members plus the vice-president of the student government who shall preside over the Congress, and one rep- resentative from each organiza- tion who will not have a vote. Charles E. Daye, Student Gov- ernment Association president, will speak November 17, 1965 lin special chapelt on "The Role of a Student Congress." The Sa- vannah State College Glee Club will also appear on the program. SSC's Department of Chemistry To Be Expanded By Jannie Singleton and Juanita Myers Dr. Charles Pratt, head of the Department of Chemistry at Sa- vannah State College, recently announced that the department had been given room space in the south wing of the Technical Science Building for use as a Nucleo-Science Laboratory. Pre- parations are being made so that the laboratory would be ready to begin classes possibly starting January, 1966. The Nucleo-Chemistry Pro- gram will offer courses in "Ra- dio-Active Elements for Identi- fication of Metabolic Products." The inauguration of this pro- gram would be a big boost in strengthening the academic phase in the chemistry curric- ulum. Weekly seminar is still a big attraction on the department's weekly calendar.

These Homecoming days are good for us. They broaden our outlook, give us new inspiration, new enthusiasm and new ideas. We like to see again the familiar faces, listen to the well remembered voices, and sing together our Alma Mater. Time was when a college education was a luxury coveted by the many; enjoyed by the few. Now. thanks to our national prosperity, it is within the reach of practically all who desire a higher training and have the courage to obtain it. In this great movement Savan- nah State College has played an important part, and is destined to play a greater one. We are proud of our college; and the adminis- tration, students, faculty and staff will make every effort to make this Homecoming celebration the best in our Alma Mater's history. We are happy to welcome our friends from our sister institution, Albany State College. As our teams compete on the gridiron in friendly rivalry, we know that we can expect the highest quality of collegiate sportsmanship. Again, we extend to you every good wish for an enjoyable cele- bration of Homecoming 1965. Howard Jordan, Jr. USING KNOWLEDGE IS POWER By John W. Jordan The clear and concise purpose of an education is to perceive or learn facts, Ideas, and information to the point that it is secure in memory and can be grasped by the mind to be used when necessary. The power of knowledge is learning, and knowledge is associated with the intellect or mind. Knowledge, like the body, is a thing where the powers are de- veloped by long and strenuous effort. The principal use of the mind, as I see it, is hard work in studies which produce learn- ing; learning in return will pro- duce an accumulation of knowl- edge; and knowledge will give to one a possession a useful edu- cation. Unless one trains his body, he cannot be much of an athlete. Daily physical exercise by an athlete is m itself nothing to the good, but the good is shown in the physical capacity to hold out when time comes to compete or use the things learned by the dally exercise. Thus, unless one trains his mind, he cannot be much of a scholar; by hard study, one may retain perma- nently some of the information acquired, but will be of little good, unless the intellectual power to use the things learned in daily life is thought to be of some worth. The mind Is a better and more powerful instrument when one has trained it by doing serious study. The fact was "knowledge is power." but still better, "the faculty of acquiring and using I wlrr.im' i> puwi : If one has a trained and powerful mind, he is bound to have stored in it lots of learning, but its value lies in what that learning can do, and what It can grasp and utilize. Alexander Pope said, "A little learning is a dangerous thing," But I say if one has only a little learning, that too can be used to acquire better and more power- ful knowledge. One has acquired the power of knowledge when he has learned and mastered his English, sci- ence, economics, history, etc., but the best results come when he uses his learned knowledge to promote growth, and when his knowledge is geared toward the betterment of mankind. As you begin this year of col- lege, strive to acquire all the knowledge that Is around you and which can be yours just for the asking. Then, be not so well as to stop there, make this knowledge work for you by giv- ing it daily exercise. Continue to use, and use and use all of the knowledge that you have acquired in order that you may continue to grow more powerful through the utilization of knowl- edge. WHY SHOULD I? "What's the use?" and "Why should I?" are the two most fatal phrases in the English language. They mark the dividing line be- tween success and failure for hundreds of thousands of stu- dents. "What's the use?" is the phi- losophy of the student who throws in the sponge when the battle has been started. He sits down alongside the road when he finds that the signpost de- ceived him instead of lengthen- ing his stride. He is satisfied with "good enough." He has no goals, no visions. He accepts no challenge. "Why should I?" is the cry of the lazy student. His aim is to do just enough to "get by." He is a clock watcher who is afraid he will do a bit too much. He is too lazy to think, too selfish to put his shoulder to the wheel for his own good. How much more vibrant and dynamic are the phrases. "It can be done!" and "I'm the one who can do it!" These phrases sparkle with the spirit of suc- cess. What a pity it is that the "Why should I" student has spent so many years in school and has failed to understand the world or himself. 'Reprint from: "Your Editorial Assistant") Tailgating Is Major Highway Death Cause Tailgating the practice of driving too closely behind an- other car is among the deadli- est of highway accident causes. In an October Reader's Digest article, author Paul Friggens re- ports that an estimated 6500 Americans will die this year in accidents involving tailgating, and that 13 percent of all auto accidents are reported to involve tailgating. Avoiding tailgating accidents involves adherence to some rules and applying common sense. For example, remember the old rule of thumb that you should stay one car length behind the car ahead for each ten miles of speed? You'd better not trust it. Today's high-speed highways and powerful cars make that rule sadly inadequate. The National Safety Council now recommends 2V-2 car lengths for each ten miles an hour in good weather double that in bad. That means that at 65, in good weather, you should be almost the length of a foot- ball field behind the car ahead of you. Another point to remember is that today's superhighways re- quire you to keep moving. "Un- certainty and hesitation on the highway is an invitation to tail- gating disaster," Friggens writes. "Once you've committed yourself to enter traffic, blend swiftly with it and drive as if it were (Continued on Page 4) FRATERNAL ORGANIZATIONS By Ernest Patrick Lavender (Editor's Note: This is a 1963 reprint of an article b> Ernest P. Lavender. This reprint is lor the purpose f Informing non- Greeks about the purpose of fraternal organizations.) What definite purpose does a fraternity serve? Is the money, sleepless nights, and devotion put into fraternities necessary? These questions are being asked by non-Greeks on college cam- puses all over the United States. The first fraternity was Phi Beta Kappa founded in 1776 at William and Mary College. From the founding of this fraternity, Phi Beta Kappa, there have stemmed sixty-one national fra- ternities called by a combination of every letter of the Greek al- phabet from Alpha to Omega lexcept Eta, Iota and Omicrom). There are over 3200 student chapters in the United States and Canada. In the early part of the Twentieth Century the Negro fraternity came into existence Alpha Phi Alpha at Cornell Uni- versity on December 4, 1906; Kappa Alpha Psi at Indiana University on January 5. 1911; Omega Psi Phi at Howard Uni- versity on November 17, 1911; Phi Beta Sigma at Howard Univer- sity on January 9, 1914. Most of these fraternities were founded on the same principle, to estab- lish a relationship that would bring students closer together. Today at Savannah State Col- lege there are four fraternity chapters. Delta Eta Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha established in 1949, Gamma Chi Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi established in 1950, Alpha Gamma Chapter of Omega Psi Phi established in 1949 and Gamma Zeta Chapter of Phi Beta Sigma established in 1949. Taking a look around cam- pus, you'll see that Greeks are more active in campus organiza- tions than non-Greeks. Greeks contribute to the aca- demic standing of the colleges as well as extra-curricular activity. There are Greeks taking part in every phase of activity on cam- pus from honor societies to ath- letics. Careful observation will reveal that various fraternal or- ganizations are making all kinds of contributions to the college as well as the community. The members of Alpha Phi Alpha give an award annually to the highest ranking Freshman scho- lastically. They make a financial contribution to the NAACP, Cru- sade for Votes, and to Green- brier Orphanage. Last year they worked with the Heart Fund and the Savannah Blood Bank. Kappa Alpha Psi gives an award to the highest ranking fresh- man. They sponsor a Christmas Box for the needy and they make financial contributions to the various organizations in Savan- nah. Omega Psi Phi sells Christ- mas Seals as a Charity project during the Christmas season to fight TB. They conduct an Essay Contest for High School students and give awards to outstanding persons and make contributions to different organizations. Phi Beta Sigma is very active in the support of the college and com- munity; they make awards and give contributions. In the form of beautification of the campus, all of the Greek letter organiza- tions have parks, beautiful parks that are kept in condition by their pledges. These parks add to the natural beauty that is present here on our campus. Most of all, these fraternities which are spoken of as an un- civilized procedure by non- Greeks stress the importance of academic achievement. Fraternities, whether taken seriously or not, seem to fill some sort of gap in college life. Col- leges with fraternities recognize this. I think most all college ad- ministrators would, in some re- (Conlinued on Page 4) From the Editor's Desk... As I observe the SSC student body, I wonder if we are aware of the various revolutions which have affected us in recent years. If we are aware of these changes, it seems to me that we are not aware of how these changes will affect us in later life. First of all we must prepare ourselves for the challenges that lie beyond the "Negro World." That is, we must be prepared to accept the challenges which other races put before us. Before more elaboration, I wonder if we are conscious of who is responsible for the various revolutions that have affected the local and national scenes of the world. Or rather, who plays the dominant role in bringing about these revolutions. These revolutions came about through people who were con- cerned about the status quo. They were not content with the way people were being treated. And through their work, a change came. It is necessary for us to prepare ourselves for the challenges which revolutionists bring about. The situation necessitates imme- diate action. Although we may be unaware of it, the revolutions have affected all of us. They have encouraged us to think more seriously about the challenges of tomorrow. They also have warned us that our color will play an even smaller significant part in the years ahead, than it does today, in determining our qualifications for jobs. Revolutions will continue to bring about change; we can't halt them now even if we try. Robert L. Joiner, Jr. YOUR COLLEGE NEWSPAPER By Leonard Jones. Contributing Editor This edition of the Savannah State College "Tiger's Roar" marks the first of a series to continue throughout the academic school year. The Tiger's Roar is the official publication for the students at Savannah State College. Being the official student pub- lication, it is the voice of the students. These are the people responsible for its publication, and are therefore directly con- cerned with the students being informed of any matter affect- ing their welfare. Being connected with a col- lege, however, the newspaper also takes the responsibility of airing the views of its adminis- trators and faculty members, whether or not they be contrary to student views. According to the slogan of the New York Times, a newspaper should print "all the news that is fit to print" about a particular person, insti- tution or thing. It cannot print or say only the good and disre- gard the bad, it should print both. Once an institution, per- son, or thing moves into the public eye, it must be ready to receive all comments whether favorable or unfavorable. Basing its "foundation" on the foregoing facts, the "Tiger's Roar" invites criticisms and comments on all printed matter. Those being in the form of a good letter properly endorsed will be published. Also, in an effort to be as accurate as pos- sible, the Tiger's Roar invites corrections on any statements made when such statements or facts are inaccurate. Brides Working to Put Husbands Through School Should Take Time to Develop Own Interests Too An increasing number of young women are foresaking the quest for an academic degree, such as an A.B. or M.A., in favor of the domestic degree of Ph. T., according to an October Reader's Digest article. The letters stand for Putting Hubby Through, and they are descriptive of thousands of American girls who are begin- ning married life as the bread- winners of their families so that their husbands can complete college, graduate school or pro- fessional training. Praiseworthy though they be. these women face problems of adjustment far greater than those of most young wives. "Such brides must be more mature than romantic," says author Myrna Blyth in the ar- ticle.

By Jacqueline Ryles None other than the person- able and dignified Azuloy How- ard. She is a graduate of Centra) High School, Wayrross, Georgia, majoring in Business Adminis- tration. Miss Howard is the head Dear Jackye, I have a very serious problem. I have two boyfriends, one in the Marines, and one on campus. The one in the Marines plans to visit the campus soon; mean- while the one on campus and I are having difficulties due to a freshman girl. I don't want the Marine to find out about the guy on campus. I realize that I don't really love this guy on campus, but I can't let a freshman have him. Jackye, what would you do if you were having such problem. Puzzled. Dear Puzzled, Indeed you do have a problem. My suggestion would be to choose the lesser of the two evils. Your real problem is choosing which is really the lesser evil. Is it swallowing your pride and let- ting a freshman have a boy that you don't love (who could, by the way, give him love in re- turn) , or letting your Marine find out how unfaithful you have been and perhaps, bearing the risk of losing them both. oaoose wisely. Jackye. Dear Jackye, We have this friend who is a habitual liar. She lies about things that don't even matter. She even lies about lies. This person recently told what seemed to her to be a little white lie; however, a big confusion de- veloped among several of her friends including her boyfriend and ex-boyfriend. When this lie finally came to the fore, she was brought to the light. After she has told her fibs she fails to realize the damage that she does to others. Please tell us how to cope with this problem or how to solve it. She is a close friend of ours still and we don't want to excommu- nicate her. R.P.J, and B. Dear Alphabets, You have basically three choices since you all are friends to this person. They are as fol- lows: 1. Smile and bear it. 2. Never believe a word she says. 3. Or, chip in and purchase her a ticket to "Happy Land.'' Jackye. Dear Jackye, I came to college with the in- tentions of studying, but now I am tired of just studying and I would like to get married. How do I go about finding a husband in a place like this? Tired-of-searching-and- ready-to-settle-down. Dear What-cha-ma-call-it You don't have to give up your B.S. to get a M.R.S. these days, the best way to get a husband is to stop looking for one. Jackye. Dear Jackye, There's a fellow back home whom I admire very much. And, believe it or not, he's 300 miles away, yet he keeps interfering with my studies. Every time I open a book (math, psychology, chemistry, etc.) I keep seeing his face on every page. Please help me. Desperate. Dear Desperate, Simple! Close the book. If this isn't enough change your major to "Man-thematics." Jackye. Dear Jackye, I have one of the most unique boyfriends on the face of this earth. When I finish explaining him to you (if this is possible) please give me your views on how to cope with him. He says he loves me yet he never asks me for a da,te nor does he date other girls; how- ever, when I'm asked by some other person he gets violently angry if I accept. Then to top this off he's self- ish, inconsiderate, belligerent, and loves to eat But worse than that I love him and he loves me. What to do? Goldfinger's girl. Dear Goldfinger's Girl, As for the dates he never takes you on, maybe your Mr. Goldltn- ger has run out of gold. You needn't worry about the rest of his actions, they're merely char- acteristics of all males. Signed: Agent 007. SWEETHEART OF THE MONTH ..

FASHIONS Jean Stewart Dear Fashionwise. Alas! The time of year that wc have all been looking forward to is finally here! Yes, it's Homecoming 1965! What does this mean to you? Does it mean being in the spot- light as a campus queen? Or does it simply mean that you will be attending the Homecom- ing festivities as a spectator? Regardless of the role you'll be playing this Homecoming, It Is a must that you be looking your best! Keep In mind the great fash- ion changes this year when you are planning what to wear to the various Homecoming activities. Remember when skirts were short in the twenties? Why, they are even shorter this year! Remember when narrow tall pencil heels were popular? Well, this is no longer true. Heels have gotten lower, much lower. Don't think by any means that low heels can't be worn in the eve- nings. The new patent leather and silk shoes have made it pos- sible to wear low heels in the evening. Oh, yes. the fellows think low heels are very sexy! Remember when fashion ex- perts used to say NO to matched accessories? This year, they are saying YES. What, then, should you look for? Look for hats . . . small cappy ones and big brimmy ones. Watch for pigskin gloves by day, and creamy doeskins by night. Watch for the shined look of black patent in bags and baby strapped shoes; for the lustered look of alligator. Watch for plumper pearls, chivalric pins, fat little rings and bracelets to match. Don't forget now, to watch for these great fashion changes (wear them too) and all eyes will be watching you! Yours in Fashion, Jean Stewart.

Hubert Brow By Robert Brown Are you a well-dressed person? or are you among that out-crowd who use your low economic status as an excuse for not being a properly dressed young man. If you arc among the out-crowd and want to become a member of the in-crowd, which is a properly dressed college young man, there is Information of im- portance for you in this article. A man is often judged by his appearance. A new suit, shirt, tie, shoes and socks is the dress of a gentleman for any occasion, hut he may not be properly or well dressed. The wise college male will know when to wear a particular attire and how to buy clothes that fit him. Some colors and styles do not look well on some individuals. It is up to you to start analysing your taste in the search for what colors and styles look best on you. Men are going far back dig- ging up ancient styles. Esquire has learned and labor this sea- son for dress in the conservative line of business. The Return of The Stripe. Stripes got their first big play in the 1880's, then they faded. In the twenties the hair- line and the chalk stripe re- turned to fashion when the Prince of Wales wore them on his world tour. They disappeared again in the thirties, and they surfaced briefly in the postwar era and were lost completely during the check, plaid and solid-color conscious fifties. Now. at last, the stripe is staging a complete return. Top custom tailors confide that their most selective clients have ordered stripes and Esquire predicts an across-the-board revival this fall of the Establishment Stripe. Nothing could be more in k?ep- ing with the modern slim than the stripe. Just for the casual wear, desert boots go with almost anything. Savannah State College students are, in the main, buying suedes called Clark boots. Dirty bucks are always popular in the fall and they are durable. The suede- like pullover jacket is also among the top sellers at men's fashion shops. The colored long sleeve shirt with a suitable tie and no coat, jacket or sweater is quite an eye- catcher. The white shirt is grad- ually fading out, although I would suggest that a couple of hangers should be saved for for- mal affairs. A man who knows where to buy clothes, how to buy clothes. and when to buy his clothes is a thoughtful and ambitious per- son. Dressing well is education too, so why not be educated in this way also. It Is believed that your life will be brighter and richer if you are correctly dressed at all times. Page ! THE TIGER'S ROAR October. 1965 NEWSCOPE EVENTS SSC Student Trained For The Peace Corps By Carolyn R. Williams Addie Scott, a student of SSC. recently underwent training for the Peace Corps at UCLA in Los Angeles. California. Miss Scott, a senior, is a native of Savannah, Georgia, and a graduate of Beach High School. She is majoring in Biology. Miss Scott attended a training session for nine )9) weeks. Upon graduation she will return for six (6) weeks advanced training, then she will be assigned to Ethiopia for two 12) years, where she will teach Biology. The following questions were asked of Miss Scott: Q. How do the teachers at UCLA differ from these at SSC? A The teachers at UCLA dif- fer from these at SSC very slightly. They seemed to take a more interested attitude toward their students, in that they are always willing to listen to any problems that you may have concerning the course, and they are willing to accept any criti- cism students may have con- cerning their teaching abilities or their courses. They also mix with the students during school hours and off hours. Q. What would you say are the major differences between the students of the two 1 2 schools in question? A, The students at UCLA are a great deal different from the students here, not in their ways, but in their study habits. The students at UCLA this summer were from many universities and colleges, and their study habits were very good. They seem al- ways to have a thirst for knowl- edge; this was the major differ- ence. But in all other aspects they are typical college students. Q How did you obtain money while you were there? A. We received $39.50 upon arrival to cover any expenses we had on our way to California. We also received $10.50 a week for general expenses. Upon leav ing, we received $8.00 traveling allowance. Q. What subjects did you take while attending UCLA? A. I had courses in Ambaric which is the official language of Ethiopia; Area studies in which a complete outline of their his- tory, human relations, commu- nism, physical education was given; and Seminar in which we discussed different topics con- cerning the programs and the ritual of Africa. Q. Are you ready to go to Ethiopia? A. Yes. I can hardly wait to complete my training. Foreign Language Department Adds New Instructor By Earline Freeman Emory W. Carr is a new addi- tion to SSC's faculty. A native of Parkersburg, West Virginia, Mr, Carr received his B.A. and M.A. degrees in German and French from West Virginia University. In addition to being an in- structor of German and French, Mr. Carr plans to participate in directing student organizations. We hope that his stay at SSC will be a success. Biology Dept. By Irene Gadson The outlook of the Biology De- partment for the school year 11/65-66 appears to be very prom- ising. The Department has got- ten off to a very good start. iiowever, we regret tnat one of our teachers, J. W. Wortham, was unable to be present in the beginning of the year because of illness. We wish for him a speedy recovery. The Department Is carrying out its program of providing for all students that knowledge which is essential to an under- standing of the biological basis of living, 'ihe freshman students are entering into this study with great interest and enthusiasm. The Department is continuing its program of preparing stu- dents to enter schools of dentis- try, medicine, and nursing. It is also participating with the otner departments of the Division of the Natural Sciences in prepar- ing teachers of science on the secondary level. The Department along with other departments of the Divi- sion has been invited to the Health Science Day which is sponsored by the Medical School of Georgia, Augusta, Georgia, October 16. 1965. The Depart- ment was delighted to receive an invitation of this nature. Dr. B. T. Griffith, the chairman of the Department, met with other representatives of biology de- partments throughout the uni- versity system on October 15 in Atlanta. At this meeting these representatives put forth every effort to solve problems that are preventing the improvement of teaching the biological sciences in the university system. Something Funny Happened During Our Rule in the Now Bus By Virginia Taylor On Tuesday, October 12, 1965, an exciting and wonderful thing happened at SSC. I looked up and saw a large bus coming around the winding road of the campus. It was our own new college bus. Mr, Mobley, the school photog- rapher, was on the scene with his camera as President Jordan, the comptroller and a group of students posed in the new bus. This was quite a bit of excite- ment for all to be among the first to take a ride in the new college bus. We were thrilled! The driver pulled the bus in gear and we were on our way. We were headed for Victory Drive. Every- one was laughing and enjoying the loud speaker, power steering and air brakes. We stopped for a traffic light at the corners of Victory Drive and Skidaway Road. When the traffic light changed to green, the bus would not move. After sitting there for about 30 min- utes we found that the bus was out of gas. After refilling the gas tank we returned to campus by way of the football field, where the football team was practicing, so that the team could see their transportation to win all our games. We enjoyed our ride but it al- most turned out to be a hike. Beverly Jackson. Wilbur Camp- bell, Patricia Ryan, Charles Day, and Virginia Taylor think the bus is very nice but they decided not to be the first to try out any- thing new again Associate Editor Served as Summer Camp Counselor Miss Clemontine Freeman, As- sociate Editor of the Tiger's Roar, served as a camp counselor this summer at Camp Vacamas In Butler. New Jersey. Vacamas is an integrated camp, predominantly Jewish, serving mostly children from families of low economic status. It was Miss Freeman's first ex- perience as a counselor. As a counselor she was responsible for seven twelve-year-old girls for a period oi two weeks. Her experi- ences were those of hiking, boat- ing, camping and cooking out, beach parties, swimming and many athletic events. She served as song leader for camp fires, advivsor for a newspaper and athletic hobby group. Miss Freeman is a senior Phys- ical Education major from Mid- way, Georgia. She is a member of the Ivy Leaf Club, choral so- ciety, N A A C P, creative dance group and Alpha Phi Gamma Honorary Journalism Fraternity. Scholarships Awarded lo 13 SSC Students According to Nelson R. Free- man, Dean of Students, at Sa- vannah State College, the Board of Regents of the University Sys- tem of Georgia has approved ap- plications from 13 Savannah State College students to receive Regents" State Scholarships for the 1965-66 school year. Freeman said, the require- ments for the Regents' Scholar- ships are, "students must have a B average when applying for the scholarships and must maintain a B average through the school term. In addition, the student must be in the upper twenty-five percent of his class and fall no lower than the 75 percentile on the College Entrance Examina- tion Board. The thirteen students to re- ceive Regents' Scholarships are: Sandra E. Bivens of Thomas- ville; Paulette Butler of Savan- nah; Shirley A. Conner of Sa- vannah; Mabel A.

Tips on Car Care By Walker Durham Don't overwork the clutch, es- pecially when driving with a girl To remove a dead battery, dis- connect all wires, remove engine. hoist body from chassis, then look in the telephone directory for Engineer-Automotive. Driving at 100 miles per hour is the quickest way to get to any cemetery. To deflate a tire rap- idly, run it over a broken bottle. The customary margin to al- low a pedestrian is two feet^his feet. From the NAACP College Chapter The Savannah Sitae College Chapter of NAACP is in the midst of making plans for the year. During the summer, the SSC Chapter had three repre- sentatives working in Liberty County. They were Edward Tur- ner, Roy Thomas and Ithamus Studgeon. At the National Convention of the Association, E. J. Josey, the advisor of the Chapter, was awarded a plate for his out- standing leadership and dedica- tion to the cause of human rights. After the National Convention. Ithamus Studgeon flew to Jack- son. Mississippi, where he worked in that state for eight weeks in a mass voter registra- tion drive and school integration program. From Mississippi he flew to Alabama and worked for a period. Studgeon extends greetings to the freshman class and return- ing students and urges them 10 join the challenging efforts oi the college chapter. He also stated that we are looking for- ward to the day when there shall be no need for such an or- ganization as the NAACP. Therefore, keep the idea oi "freedom" alive by joining the SSC Chapter of the NAACP now. Membership fee is only $1.00. Tailgating Minucd from Page 2) (Co your responsibility to keep it flowing." To reduce the tailgating slaughter, safety engineers have suggested moving away from the color red on rear lights. Actually, red may be one of the worst col- ors for the purpose, since com- mon eye defects cause four out of five people to perceive red lights as being farther away than they really are. A prefer- able system might be to use dif- ferent colors to indicate what a driver is doing green to show that he is moving at a constant speed, amber to indicate he has slowed down, and bright-orange to show that he has applied his brakes. Another remedy might be to increase the number of traffic tickets given for tailgating. Al though police admit that tail- gating is a major cause of acci- dents, they write relatively few tickets for the offense, mainly because it is difficult to prove in court. However, a well publicized crackdown on tailgaters could go far in helping to save many of the 6500 lives that will otherwise be lost in the next twelve months. Dept. of Chemistry (Continued from Page 1) work in the area of research and noted guest lecturers will be the principal speakers. Dr. Perry Holcomb of the Savannah Rivet- Laboratory is scheduled to speak in November on the subject "Chemistry of the Trans-Pluto- nium Elements." Seminars are scheduled for each Tuesday night starting at 6:00 p.m. All interested persons are cordially invited to attend. Your area of concentration need not be chemistry. Dr. Raut and Mr. Clay, profes- sor and associate respectively, represented the Department at the 158th Convention of the American Chemical Society and participated on the forum on Chemical Documentation. The convention was held in Atlantic City between September 12-17, 1965. Dr. Raut was a guest ab- stractor of the Abstracts Service and was honored at a convention on September 14. 1965.

SUPPORT YOUR TEAM Phi tivln Sigma Fraternity A Past to Cherish A Future to Fulfill By Shep Stevens In the Fall Quarter, 1965, the "cause" of mighty Gamma Zeta continued to move nobly on its way with the presentation of a brand new administration. Notwithstanding the success of the past, we are not complacent and feel that the greatest chal- lenge to our administrative abil- ity will come this year and In years to come. The most important aspect about the Phi Beta Fraternity is, essentially, its philosophy. Our philosophy, Brotherhood, Schol- arship, and Service, has been the quest of men of all ages. The first principle, brotherhood, is a real brotherhood with tested, abiding fellowship, a brother- hood that calls for and gladly gives its best in the hour of need. It is a spiritual fellowship that binds us in all activities along life's narrow pathway. Upon it rests the social welfare of each and every brother. Though we are few in number. we are great in strength. Be- cause of this strength, "our cause speeds on its way." News Notes From English Department By Claudean Freemon Mrs. Luetta C.

Page 6 THE TIGER'S ROAR Oclober. 1965 By CHIP TOLBERT, ESQUIRE'S Fashion Editor INDIAN SUMMER begins to fade, and autumn arrives in a Maze of color. Chances are, those chilly afternoons will find you rum- maging through last year's sweater collection, hoping the moth balls did their work. Let's bring your Fall '65 sweater wardrobe up to date with the two new knitwear trends for campus. THE COMPETITION STRIPE, adapted from the stripes that identify team players in com- petitive sports, contributes a refreshing, color- ful look in campus fashion. The placement of the stripes is all-important and the choice is almost limitless. They can be chest-high hori- zontals clear across the body and sleeve, or broad verticals down one side. Double and triple sets of narrow stripes circle the sleeve, or stripe its length from shoulder to cuff. CONTRAST IS THE THING., .and the bolder, the better. Look for red-hot combinations like red with black and gold stripes; or blue with red and white; in brown with green and gold, or black with red and white. Anything goes for the sweater beneath the stripe. Pullovers or cardigans, crew-necks, V-necks and turtlenecks, all compete for the Competition Stripe. They'll be found in flat and bulky knits, mohairs and ribbed or cable knits, as well. bnEAT SCOTS in canny plaids present An- other top choice in campus sweaters. They include the whole panorama of plaids. ..tradi- tional tartan or clan plaids, smart argyle dia- monds with criss-cross overmarkings.and novel diamond patterns that extend the argyle in new directions. THE LOOK OF LUXURY is underscored in, broad range of flattering texture and sur- face variations. Look for classic Shetlands in brushed textures, mohairs, and fiber blends of all kinds. Styling details again are wide open to satisfy individual tastes. Still, high crew necks r.nd turtlenecks, both the turnover type and the "mock" turtle, will cop top honors. THE GOLDEN TOUCH i lustrous gold crossweaves frequently appears in background or in accent tones. Traditional heather mixtures and natural tans and browns offer a smart, conservative appearance. The more intense colors greens, reds, and blues are often frosted with white for a new and unusual look. But bold or blended, muted or bright, Great Scots are definite campus swingers for '65. THE GAMUT OF GOLD spa s every imaginable shade in knitted or woven sport shirts. From light and bright to tawny tones touched with orange, and on to camel colors, the impact of The' Golden Touch will be apparent throughout your casualwear ward- robe. Mellow golden tones add fresh sparkle in interwoven accents to enrich the popular plaids and strong stripes in shirts, sweaters vests. ..even in robes and pajamas. It blends perfectly with other colors to create unusual heathers and mixtures shot with gold and also provides a vivid accent with solid shades. In The Golden Touch fashion has discovered a real gold-mine with virtually unlimited appeal on the nation's campuses. FOR A PARTING SHOT, a word about hosiery. !n the spo, category, you || find a wide variety of textured knits, often in heather shades. Brushed textures and rib treatments continue as campus favorites. For more formal occasions, look for the practic-1 and fashionable over the calf sock.

A wife, a husband and a book make an unromantic three- some." Even more than with most young couples, money is the No. 1 problem in a working-wife, student-husband marriage, says Miss Blyth. Husbands can de- velop feelings of guilt about not contributing to the family in- come. Worry over bills can break into the concentration needed for studying. But despite the money prob- lems, most working brides rarely feel poor, the article says. They are living for the time when their husbands will be estab- lished in good jobs or profes- sions. It is this glimpse of the future that helps them over the rough spots. A far greater, though less ap- parent problem, is that the working bride may neglect her own personal development while she is helping her husband to grow. A noted psychiatrist ad- vises young women putting their husbands through school to take jobs that are interesting even if they mean a little less money for the family. "The bride putting her hus- band through school must re- member to honor herself" as well as her husband, says author Blyth. "Whether it is a job. a course or a hobby, she must al- ways have something of her own which is meaningful and fulfill ing." (From The Bride's Magazine. Sports Outlook By Frank Ellis Hi! sports fans. Now that vacation is over I'm back to give you the latest news in the SSC sports world. It's football season again and everyone is rooting for his favorite team. Your favorite team, the Tiger's, began practice September 5. with a host of new players with out- standing potentials and sixteen regulars from last year's team. The first four points of the game were scored by the rugged defensive unit as they trapped the "Dragons" in their end zone for two successive safeties. Not wanting to be left out of the ac- tion, the offensive unit ignited and were responsible for the next fourteen points of the game. Touchdowns were scored by Frank Bell and Vaughn Ford and an extra point attempt was made good on a pass from Wal- ter Fulton to Frank Ellis. On October 2, Edward Waters defeated the Tiger's 36-0 with a massive ground and air attack. The coaching staff and players, realizing that the defeats were due mainly to weak defensive secondary or pass defense, worked diligently during the next week to overcome this weakness. On Saturday, October 9. the Tiger's showed that their work paid off. They intercepted three of the Lane "Dragon's" Our children pioneers? 51 dents Count I c-n Physic proeraf i that ai >r (ho ocean dtpttis; whether I Ihe Mure, belong! !o the nt.

The first four points of the game were scored by the rugged defensive unit as they trapped the "Dragons" in their end zone for two successive safeties. Not wanting to be left out of the ac- tion, the offensive unit ignited and were responsible for the next fourteen points of the game. Touchdowns were scored by Frank Bell and Vaughn Ford and an extra point attempt was made good on a pass from Walter Ful- ton to Frank Ellis.

"The True Spirit of Christmas Giving" FASHIONS By Walker Durham Have you ever written a letter to Santa? Perhaps you have when you were a child. It can be lots of fun writing letters to Santa expressing your Christ- mas wishes. You should try it; you may get what you ask for. The following are letters written by some students of SSC. Dear Santa, I would like for Christmas one Toronado painted pink and green with black and gold inte- rior. If I can't have that, then I will settle for a pair of boxing gloves. Frances Bazemore Dear Santa, Bring me one blonde, one bru- nette, and one redhead. I want to know is it true that blondes have more fun. Henry Dingle learest Santa Darling, I think you can recall what I ive been asking for, for the i t four years. This request, Santa darling, is between you id me, so please don't delay it any longer. Lovingly yours, Audrey L. Scott Dear Santa, First of all, I would like for you to bring me courage Cour- age to maintain my purpose here at SSC. Secondly, I would like for you to bring me faith. Faith that I may keep the cour- age you will bring me. Third, and last, I would like you to bring for Xmas, and for every- one, love. Love so that we may unite as a whole in brotherly love. Nathaniel Smith Dear Santa, Please bring me for Christmas a handsome joung gentleman with a little bit of money, a fine car, and a College Education. Bring B. G. Julia M. Jones Dear Santa, I would like for you to bring me a fine car. And please don't forget the check I asked for last year. Amount, one million dol- lars. Lirda B. Maye Dear Santa, Please bring me a book on how to make the girl I love happy. Thomas Beck Dearest Santa, I wasn't very good this year and I don't think I deserve any- thing but I do want you to take my gifts to Alabama and Missis- sippi, to give to the less fortu- nate, and please don't forget the soldiers in Viet Nam. Love ya, Carolyn Williams Dear Santa, 1 would like you to please bring me a tall, tan and terrific man. Helen Gordon Dear Santa, I would like a tall, yellow, handsome, charming, fuzzy teddy bear. Redell Hills Dear Santa, I have been a good boy alt year and I am asking that you please bring me two A's, one B. Richard Allen P.S. If not this, then let me Dear Jackye: It all started about four years ago. I met a nice fellow and we both fell in love. Now we are engaged to be married next sum- mer. Since that first year, how- ever, several changes have taken place, including the fact that we love each other more. I guess you say then that I don't have a problem. My problem, insignificant as it may seem, is that my fiance never picks my gifts himself, as he did when we first began dat- ing. Now he always leaves it up to his mother, who, by the way, knows nothing about my taste. With Christmas just around the corner, how can I bring my point out to him without hurting his feelings. Disillusioned Dear Disillusioned; You and your fiance should, after four years, be able to talk things of this nature out with- out stepping on each other's toes. My suggestion would be to sit down and discuss it with him. Tell him that you would like for his thoughts to go into the gift, not his mother's, since it is the thought of the gift emphasized instead of the gift itself. Jackye Dear Jackye: I have a little problem. Since the season is here for giving gifts, I have a boy friend to whom I would like to give some- things for Christmas. I would like to give something simple, so he won't think I'm in love with him, but just thinking of him since it's Christmas. What should I give? M. J. By Jacqueline Ryles I'm not complaining, mind wise you). I just want him to know how I feel. Head Over Heels in Love Dear H. O. H.: Just hang on in there, if he's content and you are too, there's nothing to worry about. When it really matters to him. he'll give you your chance to testify. Remember the old saying: "Good things come to those who wait." Jackye Dear Jackye: I have a problem that I know seems to be strange. I am In love with this certain boy and I know that he loves me also. The problem is that he does not want to go with me because he feels as if I'm using him (in what respect I don't know). Every time we are together we usually end up argu- ing. Tell me, Jackye, what can I do to make him believe that I do love him and I'm not using him. In Love Dear In Love: From what I gather in your letter, your friend is trying to camouflage his true feelings by presenting this excuse. If he really wanted you to be his girl he would be trying to convince you of his sincerity instead of it being the other way around. Don't feel too bad, though, there are lots of boys in Wright Hall alone who are sincere in their dealings. So get hipped to the hickey! Jackye Dear Jackye: Each year as it nears Christ- mas, my girl friend constantly pesters me as to what have I Jean Stewart Dear M. J.: To begin with, you shouldn't get the spirit of "gift giving" confused with "love making." Love is not obtained through gift giving. But if you still wish to play safe, they tell me that Santa Is still living at the North Pole; why not leave it up to him. Jackye Dear Jackye: I have met quite a number of fellows in my past, many who have, may I say fascinated me. But about a month and a half ago I browsed upon a young man who was absolutely "together." Every time I think of him, or even being around him he puts me in a daze for days. I had a couple of dates with him which I enjoyed and will never forget. But, Jackye, if he would only give me a chance to explain my feelings about him I believe I could get somewhere with him. He talks a mile a minute and I never can get a word in edge- meet the postman when my grades arrive at home. Dear Santa, This year when you come, please land your reindeer and sleigh on the lawn. The noise on the roof is an annoyance while I am trying to sleep. John Mitchell Dear Santa, Would you please bring me some hair tonic. This greasy kid stuff is too much for me. Ormoade Lewis Dear Santa, Would you please bring me a container of Rustoleum so that I may polish my car. The rust is about to eat me out. If you Let's deck the halls with boughs of holly ( and please don't forget the mistletoe), don- ning now our gay apparel, strik- ing the harp, joining the cho- rus, and generally living It up! Yuletide carols will be sung by choirs and you'll be well dressed from your head to your toes. Yes. everybody knows that gala season is almost here. Just in time for the holidays is a vision of fashions that have been dancing in your head all year. The time has come now for you to get in the Christmas limelight with your dazzling holiday attire. Since this is the time of year for parties, parties, and still more parties, maybe, you would be interested In a few tips on how you can be the Belle of the Ball at all of the parties you plan to attend. (Not to mention the party you. plan to give.) Why not try something new? When you invite guests over the night before Christmas, greet them in a granny dress of red or green paisley. Better still, be a knock out in your white, red, green or gold party pants that swirl sexlly at the ankles. (Don't forget your matching top.) Oh, how alluring you will be! Can you think of a greater excuse for giving a party than entertaining these new looks that will show up around the house during the holidays? As you have seen they come in va- rying degrees from granny gotten her for Christmas, or what am I going to get her. She gets angry when I refuse to tell dresses to party pants. her and she gets angry when I tell her it's one thing and at Christmas she finds it to be a "horse of a different color." What can I do to save myself from the folly of this crazy chick? Christmas Gifts Anonymous Dear C. G. Anonymous: The remedy is a very simple one. Buy her an empty box. When she asks what's in it, tell her It's nothing. This way you will have told her what's in it and you won't be lying. Then Christmas, when she opens it, that "horse" will be the same color. Merry Christmas, Jackye p. S : I hope by next Christ- mas she'll be speaking to you again. Well. December Is here again with its joyful holiday atmos- phere. This is the month of the birth of Christ, family reunions, festivities, and fashions, More men are idealistic in dressing this month than the entire Fall season. Of course, this is only proper because there will be par- ties and gatherings, and more people will be In places where only a few people usually go, so my advice to the fashionable young man Is that he should look sharp. The smash for this mid-Fall month consists of the elegant three quarter and knee-length fur-collared overcoats. Fur-col- lared coats have not been popu- lar for the last three years, but fashion changes have made the fur-collar coats popular this year. They have come back with the striped pants and suits. Whether It is double-breasted or single breasted, leather or a wool herringbone, you are warm and well dressed with a look of suc- cess. The informal dressed men of today aren't just criticizing the Russian government but they are especially looking at what the Russians are wearing. The no- ticeable Russian shirts which are an extraordinary outburst of vivid colors and patterns, brand the season's sport shirts. The fabrics range from silk and silky broadcloths to cotton flannels and tweedy wools. It's my belief that Russian styles may be worn without fear of being called a "Red." don't have any Rustoleum, I will settle for some sandpaper. Marcia O'Brien Dear Santa, Please bring me some legs, be- cause I want to wear boots very much. I am talking about those Go-Go Boots. JaRene Pearson Dear Santa, I would like for you to bring me some presents for my birth- day. Pearl Holmes p.S. Don't forget birthday cards. Dear Santa, Please bring me another brand of cigarettes to smoke. I find myself smoking more these days and enjoying it less. J.B. Would you like to look calm, pleasant, and interesting when you make your grand entrance at the party you'll be attending with your classmates on Christ- mas night? The best way to do this is to wear something soft and a bit slithery, in crepe or satin or chiffon. Here, color and simplicity are the things that count. Beige, burnt-orange and Ice-blue are marvelous color suggestions. Don't be surprised if someone calls you a young softie! New Year's Eve party what to wear? Well, it all depends upon whether you want to greet the new year dazzling. You do^ Then, you must wear a brilliant flame-pink and orange, clear red, yellow-to-emerald green, tortoisy brown, and lots of white. You will find many shifts that come in these exciting colors that can be most becoming. Try one. What makes a Merry Christ- mas and a Happy New Year? Happy people around a glitter- ing tree, gala presents and you, of course looking your best. Happy Holidays! Yours in fashion, Jean Stewart Ask a Student By Walker Durham In a few more weeks we will be living in another year. Usu- ally we look for new and differ- ent things when the new year arrives. The following are re- sponses I received from students when I asked them: What events or changes would you like to see In 1966? LEONARD JONES In 1966, I would like to see a year of more sincere peace on earth and good will toward men. A year that will be the end of the war In Viet Nam and a year that will give all Ameri- cans a chance to share the nation's prosperity and growth. JEFFRENIA B. SAPP During the year of 1966, I would like very much to see peace pre- vailing throughout the world. The war in Viet Nam makes this seem a little impossible during 1966, but I think that we should work toward a means to end the war and by "67" let peace prevail here, Southeast Asia and every- where. BENNIE BROWN During the year of "66", I, like many others, would like to see peace restored around the World. Particularly in Viet Nam, that answers may be found to the questions, "Why are we fight- ing there and what are we to gain from our fighting?" VERLENE BROWN During the year of 1966, I would like to see peace among men. Peace among the Negroes and Whites at home as well as peace in Viet Nam. I wish this year could be filled with peace and harmony between all man- kind. !'.l'.r I THE TIGER'S HOAR December. 1965 SSC Students Published Poems (Reprint from Savannah Morning News) Poems by two Savannah State College students have been se- lected for publication in the An- nual Anthology of College Po- etry.

The play was under the direction of J. B. Clemmons, associate professor of mathematics. "Craig's Wife" is a typical story of a selfish woman who has chosen to use every conceiv- able means to gain prestige and power over all of those about her. She succeeds in deceiving her husband to the point that all of his friends and relatives can see that she loves only herself; and will stop at nothing in realizing her ambitions. Her neighbors are not welcome to her home; and she demonstrates this when the woman across the street comes over to the Craig house. while Mr. Craig is away. She places her ambitions above the health of her sister and the happiness of her hus- band. The leading roles are shared by Kathleen Jamerson, a junior; and Charles Savage, II. and El- oulse Glover, both seniors. Other members of the cast are Gail Walton, Mary Braswell.

N?tu fear Students Search For Creativity Many Savannah State College students were given the oppor- tunity to view experiments and projects in search of the mean- ing of creativity when students enrolled in the course Art 323 i Painting) reported that the class had undergone spectacular expansion that is, from the regular art studio into halls and other rooms in the Art Depart- ment. The principle reason for the expansion, it seems, is that each student in the class was to com- plete a mural project as a final assignment. Murals are neces- sarily large and require consid- erable space in which to work. Artis Jackson, of Brunswick, was credited for using more space than other students in the painting class. She made a batik mural which is twelve feet long. In order to accomplish this objective, Miss Jackson melted a bit of wax in one room, carried it to another, and then applied it to her fabric. Phillip J Hampton, assistant professor of fine arts, who is instructor of the painting class, stated that Miss Jackson used every con- ceivable method for applying dyes to the fabric. Hampton stated that not only did the idea of finding the meaning of creativity pose a challenge to his art class but with a wisp of air through chit- chat, the movement began as a challenge to other art classes to explore the meaning of crea- tivity. The art projects under- way presented a flair of interest to the layman passing through the department's halls. As an example, works by Theodosia Tharps and Lula Thompson, two art students, captured the at- tention of many passersby. Miss Tharps was busy at work past- ing paper and rolling paint in order to create a mural form. Miss Thompson, dressed in art- ist's attire, carefully and en- grossingly painted with tempera on an eight-foot burlap panel, Lena Bauknight, another art student, expressed herself in a mural painting using tempera and casein glue as binder. In particular, one unique aspect of Miss Bauknight's work is the manner in which she employed a palette knife and sand in her painting technique. With the creation of a vibrant and colorful technique, Vernedia Johnson of Savannah, used the life of the great humanitarian and scientist, George Washing- ton Carver, as her subject. Hampton stated that even though the task of doing such a mural was painstaking, Miss Johnson never succumbed to de- feat Obit nary Funeral services for Mrs. Vera Dowdell Brown, former secre- tary of Agriculture Extension Services for a number of years at Savannah State College, were held in Meldrim Auditorium, Saturday, Dec. 4. 1965, at 12:00 noon.

SCHOEFFLER, ESQUIRES Fashion Director Tomorrow's forecast could rend "Below-freezing temperatures, and snow turning to sleet late in the afternoon." No doubt about it, winter is well on its way. And no self-respecting college man wants to be caught looking through the glass darkly when the big freeze hits. So, a few fashion tips on your cold-weather wardrobe are in order. Let's take a quick run-down on the trends in outerwear for the months ahead, THE THIN RED LINE plummets toward zero, but you'll ho snug in your campus tow coat the cold-weather cover-all. This new "tops-every- thing" coat is a lineal descendant of the "Ski Look." Its basically bulky, masculine lines are combined with feather-light weight. The tow coat is readily identifiable by its length, which ie short at most, 38" breaking just above the knee. All-wool or polyester cotton fabrics, usually in a twill or poplin weave, are the most popular in both single and double breasted styles. Color preferences range from tan through dark blue, black, and Loden green. THE BIG NEWS IS THE BIG STRETCH m n kinds of fabrics. which along with the "Ski Look," are creating a major revolution in sportswear. One-way S-T-R-E-T-C-H is the horizontal give-and- take found in the new ski-inspired jackets. In general, jackets tend toward greater length this year in both belt and zipper front styles. Their added elasticity affords plenty of extra shoulder room. Blue. black. In-own and natural tan are the dominant colors. Ski jackets feature conceded hoods which roll into the collar. Quilted fabrics of nylon or polyester cottons continue the popular trend in diagonal and oblong patterns. Professional type stretch ski pants, under- stated in dark grey, dark blue, and black, are slimmer and trimmer. maintaining the tapered look, along with greater ease and comfort at points of stress. SOUND THE I RUMPETSfoi the big swing back to leather. Leather sport coats and jackets as well as longer coats in brushed suede and grained leather are definitely in. Leather accessories are big too: bindings on collars, closures, button-holes and sleeves add a dis- tinctive and practical touch. For the more conservative and for the more formal occasion woolen top coats in a raglan sleeve, natural-shoulder, single-breasted bold new Herringbone are getting the nod. The Herringbone measures about an inch wide and is made of black and white or grey coarse yarns. Traditional campus styling includes flapped pockets and a fly front. And, of course, the fleece- type camel hair coat remains a campus classic. THIS SIDE OF PARADISE the well-dressed col- lege man will be properly hatted against win- ter's icy fury. The "suede swinger" constructed on a firm yet flexible nylon frame, is made of velvety suedes and brushed leathers in natural shades to coordinate with all kinds of leather and textured sportswear fabrics. A small crown, a narrow brim, and a snap-band complete the picture. Well, sports fans, now that football season is over, it's time to start the round ball to bounc- ing. The Savannah State College basketball team started its prac- tice sessions immediately after football season. The Tigers are composed of seven returning let- termen and eight newcomers with great expectations The season opened December 1, 1965 with the Tigers playing host to South Carolina State College. Even though our team lost, they exhibited excellent sportsman- ship and promising potentials. In the second game of the sea- son the victory hungry Tigers traveled to St. Augustine, Flor- ida, to play against the Florida Memorial Lions in a game of few mistakes, high scoring, strong defensive efforts, ball trapping and most of all team work that propelled the mighty Tigers to a 95-89 victory. The half-time score was 50-50 and the game was tied again in the last quar- ter, 80-80. In the last three minutes of the game, the Tigers were 9 points behind, but a group of hungry, determined Ti- gers fought to a three-point lead which they increased to 6 before the final buzzer of the game. The Tigers' attack was led by Walter Fulton, 26 points; O. C. Baker, 25; and Israel Gatewood, 21. The starting players were Carl Crump (6'1") forward, Mil- ton Brilton C6'6") center, Israel Gatewood (6") forward, Walter Fulton (6'5") guard, O. C. Baker <6'1">. The spark plug on the Tigers' Sports Outlook With Lewis Wltherspoon and Frank Ellis Hi! sports fans. I'm back on the scene with the latest happen- ings in SSC's world of sports. As people express their views and give their opinions of the football team's disappointing record, they must take into con- sideration that no matter who the coach is or what team it is, it still remains a fact that it is hard to win without adequate experience on any kind of team. As far as statistics are con- cerned the team was just as good or better than most of the opponents. The team's ability to move the ball from their 20 yard zone line or closer to the goal line was quite amazing, but on the other hand their inability to go on and score was some- thing else. The inability of the team to score could be contrib- uted to inexperience. For it is widely known that the toughest yardage in football comes be- tween the goal line and the 20 yard line. The SSC family can be proud of its football team even though their record does not give you reason to be. The Tigers played such good games that five of the football players were se- lected as members of the two all conference teams. Frank Bell, fullback and Barry Gold, guard were selected to the first team; Horace Graham, center, Judson Brown, tackle, and Frank Ellis, Jr., halfback, were selected to the second team. On the intramural scene, the physical education team again walked away with the cham- pionship as they defeated the Alphas and Wright Hall Tigers for the honor. All persons who are interested in participating in the intramu- ral basketball program are urged to submit the name of their team members to Robert Cain and Frank Ellis, Jr. before the Christmas Holidays so that the program can be started at the beginning of the winter quarter. Merry Xmas! squad was O. B. Baker; his abil- ity to score from any position on the court combined with his de- fensive ability left the vicious Lions purring like a litter of newly born kittens. Other members of the mighty Tigers not mentioned are: Clark Brooks, Charles Day, Solomon Dotson, Frank Ellis, Vernon Jen- nings, Jerome Johnson, Hiawa- tha Paul, Sylvester Reddick, Charles Ruttand, and James Ruttand. We wish to commend Coach Richardson and the Tigers and also to let them know that we are behind them 100%. Say, sports fans! Have you heard that five of our football players made all S.E.A.C.??? Well, if you haven't, they are Frank Bell, fullback; Judson Brown, tackle; Frank Ellis, half- back; Barry Gold, guard; and Horace Graham, center. All of them are expected back next season except our graduating captain, Frank Ellis. MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR THE CALL OF THE WILD comes through bud and clear in the HOOT BOOT. Great for foot- ball games and trudging through midwinter slush, the HOOT BOOT is an example of the ideal marriage of fashion and function. This 2-eyelet demi-boot has a shorter rise than last year's models, pointed up by a turnback welt seam. Unlined or for the cold-weather campus lined with fleece or shearling, the HOOT BOOT features grained, plain or brushed leath- ers, with leather or rubber sole. Soft, subtle heather mixtures of HOOT Hose are emphasized by their fleecy finish. They are the answer to the perennial campus demand for practical, easy-care hose. That's it for the latest word on outerwear. Next month, in plenty of time to prepare you for the up-coming whirl of holiday celebra- tions, we'll take a close look at the formalwear scene. See you then.

GEORGIA JL TIIK TICICH'S KOAK l.muan 12. VH,l, Presidents Message On behalf of the administration, faculty, and staff of Savannah ate College I am happy, indeed, to extend greetings and cordial ords of welcome to our student body as you come back to the ' "liege to begin another calendar year 1966. I sincerely hope that "ii have had a merry Christmas vacation, and that you come back "'ted. refreshed, and eager to start another academic quarter. All ol us in the administration, faculty, and staff sincerely hope and pray that the year ahead will be a happy and profitable one for you. It is our great hope and expectation that 1966 will be one of the most glorious years in the history of the College. Each of us must give the best of our efforts to make this so. To this end, the administra- tion, faculty, and staff pledge their wholehearted cooperation and support in helping you. the students, make this one of your finest years. The old year is ended; the bright new year, with all of its possi- bilities for success and happiness, is before us. What will the new year bring? Will it bring the success of our plans the fulfillment Of our dreams? Only you can determine the answer to this, by the firmness and strength of your resolutions to work up to your maximum abilities in achieving all that the College has to offer. I believe there is not one of us but who, in the depths of his heart, says at the beginning of a new year, "I will strive harder; I will do better; I will accomplish more in this year that is just commencing." And even though we do not realize all our hopes, we are better men and women for the thought and the effort. As members of the Savannah State College family, it must be our ultimate aim to accomplish more in the year ahead than we have accomplished in the years passed. Significant progress has been made in the past few years in providing a better environment here at the College for learning. We confidently expect our expansion program to continue to move rapidly ahead. In this connection, on January 13, bids will be opened for the new men's dormitory which will house 180 men. Requests have been made of the board of regents to authorize construction of a new dining hall, new science building, student center, and building for early childhood education. The official College family pledges to you dedicated efforts in securing these much needed facilities. This month, another new facility will' be opened to provide the members of the College family with improved instructional facilities and facilities for recreation and pleasure the annex to Willcox- Wiley Gymnasium, which houses a swimming pool. While the swim- ming pool is a long awaited and much needed facility, everyone must recognize that it carries with it some dangers and should be used very carefully. Regulations concerning the use of the swimming jacility will be posted by the Department of Health and Physical Education. We earnestly solicit your strict adherence to the regula- tions for your safety and comfort. Again, may v/e say welcome back, and our best wishes for a prosperous new year. Howard Jordan, Jr. President WELCOME STUDENTS College Library Issues Handbook The College Library recently issued the second edition of its Library Handbook for Students. The first edition was issued in 1961. Since that time library service on the campus of Sa- vannah State College has ex- panded tremendously. The book collection is growing rapidly, there has been the offering of photocopying services, the Cur- riculum Materials Center has been established and reference services now include more highly specialized indicies. abstracts, microcards and other important reference tools. In his introduction to the handbook, E. J. Josey, Libra- rian, indicated "The Library Handbook has been compiled by the members of the library staff to aid you in making effective use of the Library during your four years as a college student. As a matter of fact, the mastery of the techniques and procedures of good library usage in college will also be an asset to those of you who matriculate in graduate school or to those of you who will use your public library fa- cilities in the communities in which you will make your home." Greetings From the Staff By Robert L. Joiner, Jr. On behalf of the Tiger's Roar Staff, it is a pleasure to extend a hearty and most warm wel- come to you on returning to pre- pare yourselves for the chal- lenges of tomorrow. I hope, however, that the new year will mean more to you than just a change in the calendar. I trust that you will work hard to erase the mistakes which you have made in the past. Further- more, I hope that you have made a tentative outline so that you will know where you are going and what you are going to do when you get there. For those of you who are en- tering SSC for the first time, I ask you to study hard and ex- ercise the many facilities which the college makes available to you. Again. I welcome you back, and may I warn: in order to make this quarter successful, "your reach must exceed your grasp." Lockette Dormitorv, which houses 180 women students, is located on Taylor Road, south of Powell Hall. Page 2 SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE January 12.

As part of the year's project, the members are planning the mnual Christmas for the chil- dren from Greenbriar Children's -enter. This has always been a 'ery successful annual project, md the members look forward o it each year. Other projects or the year include the annual esper and chapel programs. CHRISTMAS BAZAAR A SUCCESS New Silverless Coin Smarter Than Machines It's been said in some quarters ; hat machines are becoming smarter than men. Maybe so. but in one recent instance a group of men com- bined their talents to fool twelve million machines. What's more, the machines still don't know they're being tricked. The deceived devices are America's vending machines, pay phones, parking meters and other coin-operated instruments. According to a December Read- er's Digest article, it's been quite a job to gull them into accepting those new dimes, quarters and half-dollars the ones that con- tain less silver than heretofore. The new coins were necessary because there just isn't enough silver to go around. Other countries have already switched to silverless or reduced- silver coins. Our own stockpile of silver was declining at a rate that would have wiped it out in three years. Having decided to produce coins that contain less silver, the u - S. Treasury faced the awe- some problem of altering mil- lions of vending machines so they'd accept the new coins a two-and-a-half-year job or of trying to perfect a coin that the machines would accept as genu- ine. Students supported the Home Economics Department's annual Christmas Bazaar in order to make it a success. Men of Omega Complete Project The men of Alpha Gamma Chapter of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity finished their first project of the 1965-66 academic year Sunday, December 12, 1965. The brothers visited the Old Folks Home and entertained pa- tients there. After the brothers presented the gift to the pa- tients, they entertained them by singing Christmas Carols. It is hoped that people will not look at Omega as an organiza- tion which does nothing more than have parties. It is through these constructive projects along with our academic standard that we justify our means. Mormons Ban Dances At Bi iuImuii Young (ACP) The frug. swim, jerk, and other "fad dances" were banned from the Brigham Young University campus recently i Oc- tober 4). The student government Exec- utive Council voted to prohibit "suggestive" dances it consid- ered contrary to Mormon stand- ards. University President Ernest L. Wilkinson commended the Coun- cil for the "positive action they had taken in dance standards" and said classes were being scheduled to teach students so- cial dancing. Delta Sigma Theta Initiates Nine The sisters of Delta Nu Chap- ter, of Delta Sigma Theta Soror- ity, initiated nine new sorors into their great sisterhood. They are Gloria Duncans, Alyne Eady, Laura Eady, Margaree Johnson. Lula LaCounte, Minnie Hudson, Joyce Washington, Constance Heath, and Angela Mack. These girls are noted for their magnif- icent voices and their academic standing. As one of the Delta's projects this year, they will entertain the children at Greenbriar and also take toys along with them to these children. The Deltas have two other projects which they would like to carry out during this academic year: visit the Old Folks Home in Savannah and visit the Psychiatric ward at Memorial Hospital. Their annual Christmas carol- ing was held Dec. 10, 1965. Students helping to make Savannah State College's Blood Drive a success by donating a pint of blood each. Longer Breaks (ACP) A Michigan State Uni- versity senior finally found the congestion on campus buses too much to bear. So, he wrote a letter to the "Michigan State News" bemoaning his plight on the "cow college's cattle vans." Here's what he had to say: Now that I am into the fall term of 1965, I have been crowded, pushed, shoved, pinched and practically raped while try- ing to crowd, push, shove, pinch and practically rape my way into our fair campus buses. We are trying to destroy our image as a cow college so why must we be herded into the buses? Every time I have boarded a bus to reach class on time. I have begun at least one half hour early and have always ar- rived from 10 to 15 minutes after the instructor has begun his lec- ture. Obviously, there should be either a greater number of buses or a smaller number of students. Which is more feasible? If the University is going to sell this service to students, it should be prepared to run the buses efficiently. I'm sure that I speak not only for myself, but also for the three students looking over my shoulder and the one standing on my foot. SAVANNAH STATE COLLECE CLUB & CAMPUS ft* FASHIONS BY 0. E. SCHOEFFLER, ESQUIRES Fashion Director Tomorrow's forecast could read "Below-freezing temperatures, and snow turning to sleet late in the afternoon." No doubt about it, winter is well on its way. And no self-respecting college man wants to be caught looking through the glass darkly when the big freeze hits. So. a few fashion tips on your cold-weather wardrobe are in order. Let's take a quick run-down on the trends in outerwear for the months ahead. THE THIN RED LINE plummets toward zero, but you'll be snug in your campus tow coat the cold-weather cover-all. This new "tops-every- thing" coat is a lineal descendant of the "Ski Look," Its basically bulky, masculine lines are combined with feather-light weight. The tow coat is readily identifiable by its length, which is short at most, 38" breaking just above the knee. All-wool or polyester cotton fabrics, usually in a twill or poplin weave, are the most popular in both single and double breasted styles. Color preferences range from tan through dark blue, black, and Loden green. SOUND THE TRUMPETS for the big swing back to leather. Leather sport coats and jackets as well as longer coats in brushed suede and grained leather are definitely in. Leather accessories are big too: bindings on collars, closures, button-holes and sleeves add a dis- tinctive and practical touch. For the more conservative and for th? more formal occasion woolen top coats in a raglan sleeve, natural-shoulder, single-breasted bold new Herringbone are getting the nod. The Herringbone measures about an inch wide and is made of black and white or grey coarse yarns. Traditional campus styling includes flapped pockets nnd a fly front. And. of course, the fleece- type camel hair coat remains a campus classic. THE CALL OF THE WILD comes through loud and clear in the HOOT BOOT. Great for foot- ball games and trudging through midwinter slush, the HOOT BOOT is an example of the ideal marriage of fashion and function. This 2-eyelet demi-boot has a shorter rise than last year's models, pointed up by a turnback welt seam. Unlined or for the cold-weather campus lined with fleece or shearling, the HOOT BOOT features grained, plain or brushed leath- ers, with leather or rubber sole.

SEX ON THE CAMPUS (ACP> Sex on campus has been talked and written about so much that it usually elicits only a yawn nowadays, says col- umnist Carrol Cagle in the "New Mexico Lobo," University of New Mexico. But it is wise to realize the major problems on campus in an effort to solve them. The main problem is that there are too many conduct rules which cannot be completely en- forced and can only lead to more problems. Women in residence halls are required to be in at a certain hour and are not allowed to stay out overnight unless they follow due procedure. This is not the case in dozens of instances every night, and everyone knows it. The administration is not really at fault. It is required to at least go through the motions of protecting morals because of public scrutiny. Many adminis- trators admit privately they would like nothing better than to forfeit their job as moral watchguard. But they just can't. Universities must be bold and farsighted when it comes to facing sociological problems. Act- ing as a moral guardian is hardly in step with a university's purpose. The sheer weight of tradition surrounding closing hours and bed checks discourages all but a few women from challenging the system. It has always been this way, thus it shall continue. I would like to propose that there is something drastically wrong with the system. It treats women as cattle; they have to be shuttled through the chutes by closing time or they acquire "late minutes" or worse. The system perhaps wouldn't be so bad if it followed the pat- terns of society. But there are many women the same age as these disciplined coeds who are secretaries, clerks, etc., and don't have such restrictions. They would rebel if they were treated as 16-year-olds again. What a person does with his personal life should remain private, to be handled individually. Besides, everyone is familiar with the argument that closing hours have little or no effect on the amount of sexual relations of coeds. Daytime will suffice, thank you. In addition, there is no evi- dence from other universities to indicate that relaxed or abol- ished hours would allow women to run wild and that the Univer- sity would soon be all male, the women having dropped out be- cause of pregnancies. Most women would probably be in their rooms by about the same time anyway. Or perhaps earlier, because there is a stigma about going in before closing hour. And those who wish to do otherwise could continue their current practices, but without hypocrisy. In actuality, very lit- tle would change. The real issue is that persons of university age ought to be treated as persons, not as chat- tels. Change will only come when courageous people speak out. then take steps to resolve the problem. But, first of all, the women involved have to realize that a problem exists.

The new modern structure, designed by the Savannah Ar- chitectural firm of Sewell and Associates, Inc., will contain ap- proximately 38,000 square feet of floor space and will provide 90 student rooms. Each student room will house two students and will be equipped with two desks, beds, wardrobes and chest of drawers provided for under the contract. Toilets and laun- dry facilities will be provided on each of the three floors. A large lobby and activities room on the first floor will be available for student activities and social functions for the entire college. An apartment is located on the first floor for the Director. The entire building will be air con- ditioned. To cost $511,782.00 the rein- forced concrete brick and stone structure will be built by the Artley Company, General Con- tractors, who were the success- ful low bidders on the project. Construction is scheduled to be- gin immediately and to be com- pleted in 330 days. Picture of New Dorm on Page 6 Savannah State College re- ceived a $2,000 "package" of vis- ual education equipment as part of a $1.5 million national assist- ance grant to education program sponsored by the 3M Company, St. Paul, Minnesota. Under the 3M Assistance Grants to Education program, model classroom visual commu- nications systems and reference materials were given to each of the approximately 700 accred- ited teacher training colleges In the United States. The program is the second phase of 3M's aid to education program. In 1963. the company pre- sented equipment grants to 500 public, private and parochial schools in the fifty states. The announcement of the 3M grant to Savannah State College was made today at a 3M Awards presentation sponsored by En- field's local 3M Visual Products dealer. Accepting the grant for Sa- vannah State College was Dr. Howard Jordan, Jr., President. Mr. William Maier, Sales Man- ager of Enfield's said, "Our first Assistance Grants to Education program was designed to en- courage creative teaching in schools of all levels from kin- dergarten through graduate school by providing them with the latest visual communications system. "But, it's equally important to expose our future teachers to the types of teaching tools they will work with when they em- bark on their new careers. This was the prime purpose of the second 3M Assistance Grants program. Taken as a whole, the two programs help meet the need to communicate knowledge effectively to today's and tomor- row's students." Each $2,000 grant consists of a complete teacher training unit in visual classroom communica- tions. Included is a unit of in- struction in the use of visual aids, reference books, sets of transparency originals of illus- trative material in 70 different subjects, transparency making equipment, and classroom and portable overhead projectors and supplies, reproduction and pro- jection of almost any written, typed, printed, drawn or sketched material onto a screen in a fully-lighted room. Mate- rial to be projected is simply passed through an office copier with a sheet of film. The image is transferred to the film which is then placed on the projector stage for classroom showing. The system is efficient, inex- pensive, and allows the teacher to focus class attention on a vis- ual subject. The speed and flex- ibility in preparation of visual materials, also enables the teacher to provide her class with up-to-the-minute information. WELCOME TO SSC, DELEGATES Supreme Court Ban on School Prayers Increases Study of Bible as Literature has encouraged this, saying "the One result of the Supreme Court decisions against prayers in public schools is an increase in the study of the Bible as lit- erature, writes Clarence W. Hall in a February Reader's Digest article, "Is Religion Banned from Our Schools?" Associate Justice Tom C. Clark Bible is worthy of study for its literary and historic qualities" and that such study presented objectively "does not conflict with the First Amendment. "Teaching the Bible as litera- ture has perhaps won more practitioners than any other," writes Dr. Hall. "In Indiana, al- most two thirds of the public schools use the Bible in their literature classes, and a course in 'Biblical literature' is an au- thorized elective for high school students." Many secondary schools across the country have introduced courses in comparative religion. In Georgia, the state board of education asserts, most teachers are now including the Bible as a text in literature courses. In California, public school teachers are now required to in- clude in their courses appropri- ate study of the role of religion in the story of mankind. In Texas, history teachers discuss the relationship of church and state. The American Association of School Administrators recently appointed a special commission to produce guidelines for those who establish school policy. "If we school people are up to its implied challenge," says Dr. Ar- chibald B. Shaw, associate sec- retary of the organization, "the Supreme Court's decisions may well turn out to have done more for both education and religion than all the legislative hearings and church pressures." THE TIGER'S ROAR February, 1966 Greetings to the 15th Annual Southern Regional Press Institute On behalf of the administration, faculty, starf, and student body, it Is my pleasure to extend greetings and a warm welcome to each of the participants of the 15th Annual Southern Regional Press Institute as you come once again to our campus. Throughout the years this Institute has been a strong force in creating interest and enthusiasm for journalism in the elementary schools, high schools, and colleges throughout the State of Georgia and the Southeast. Your presence here, in this Institute, indicates the importance of this Institute with respect to the role of jour- nalism in a dynamic society. You. as young journalists, have a per- sonal role to play in our ever-changing world. As future journalists, you will become the guardians of responsibility, of freedom, and of truth. Over the years, the Southern Regional Press Institute has been a glowing asset to the college through its painstaking spotlight and clarification of the numerous benefits of journalistic studies. The theme this year "The Importance Of Mass Media In Our Daily Lives" is Indeed a significant and timely one, especially in this age when our major concern is developing an educated citizenry. I believe that our society owes much of its progress to the news media, which provides accurate facts and information about prob- lems so that all citizens may make intelligent decisions. We hope that this Institute, although brief, will be beneficial. enjoyable, and profitable. Moreover, we hope that you will carry away many helpful suggestions and ideas which will Improve your school newspapers, your yearbooks, and other publications. We wish for you a very successful Institute. Again, we welcome you to our campus, and we invite you to visit with us often. Cordially, Howard Jordan. Jr. President OUR STAND IN VIET NAM By Charles Elmore The big question confronting most Americans and college stu- dents today is how or when will the war in Viet Nam end. This is a question that can not be answered at the present time, because so many factors are involved in the resolvement of the war in South East Asia. Many college men and young married men with families are being drafted for the military service to give their all for a cause which they are all too uncertain. The average reaction to this type of militaristic strongarming is one of public indignation. There are many conflicting views on the Viet Nam crisis by the American people. We should all as Americans and lovers of liberty place our- selves in the position of the Vietnamese people whose country is torn by war and poverty. Once the situation is analyzed from this vantage point and the several solutions to the problem are studied we will all begin to understand why we must maintain our troops in Viet Nam. There are sound theories to support this viewpoint. The paper tiger theory states that we must stand firm in Viet Nam in order to maintain our prestige in the Far East and our power in the Pacific. This is one of the reasons the United States took up the war mantle in Southeast Asia after Ho Chi Minh expelled the French in 1954. There is also the domino theory which states that if we give up the struggle in Viet Nam and let the Communists take over, com- munism would eat like a cancer into all of the countries below and surrounding South Viet Nam. Some of these countries are New Zealand, Malaysia. Thailand, the Philippines, Australia, and many other nearby countries, The United States should consolidate its present position and stop the bombing raids on North Viet Nam, which take the lives of innocent women and children. The policy makers of the United States should negotiate for a peaceful settlement. At the same time they must not sacrifice our fortifications in Viet Nam to obtain this end. In negotiating for and obtaining an armistice the United States may possibly avert a third world war. This would set the example for all of the other countries of the world and lead us all on the long road to universal brotherhood with all of our fellow men. The Fate of Wars By Juanita D. Myers In an era when the reach of man is extended Into the infin- ity of space and the nucleus of an atom, he still lacks the power of advanced reasoning. Nations who defy gravity and launch miniature stars that dangle and record the vast secrets of the universe pride themselves in their fearless conquest of the untrodden and unknown, mak- ing servants of energy and the atom. Is it Impossible for these na- tions to exist in peaceful co-ex- istence? Must their energies al- ways be geared to destruction of life and substance, or can they find the sources of their needs? Wars have existed since the beginning of time, leaving be- hind clouds of indifference and scores of unsolved problems. Clouds that wait for total ab- sorption and then burst and spray their vomit on the minds of those below. Is man incapable of reasoning and must he suffer such fates generation after generation, or can he advance himself to a stage of competent reasoning? The decision is his and the fate can be shared by him alone. Nations before have had the chance but their reasoning proved inadequate. Only epi- taphs remain, reminding us of their presence. Shall this nation share the fate of others or will it evolve into a homogeneous chain of dedicated intergers making peace a reality and not a five lettered word? From the ^ Editor's Desk... By Robert L Joiner. Jr. J^i The Viet Nam war was perhaps one of the most talked about problems in 1965. It will be even more controversial in the year of 1966. Many Americans are beginning to doubt their country's strength; they are wondering if we can really win in Viet Nam. Can we win in Viet Nam? Ralph McGill, noted publisher, re- cently stated that Charles Weltner answered that question. Follow- ing is McGill's report of what Congressman Weltner stated: "Certainly, it would be a simple matter to bring about, within 24 hours, the utter devastation of all of North Viet Nam. We could kill every able bodied fighting man there along with every little child, every woman, every old man all within the twinkling of an eye. We can win if winning means wiping out 16 million human beings; and if winning includes the very real chance of direct mili- tary engagement with Communist China; and if winning includes the probable necessity for using nuclear weapons against Peking; and if winning includes the possible destruction of Russia after, of course, Russia has simultaneously destroyed 100 million American lives. "We have the power to win if we want to win under those circumstances. That power has gone unexercised, to the mounting frustration of us all, and to the increasing demand that we do some- thing. We sincerely seek an honorable peace and, I am convinced, are willing to go the extra mile. We will not, however, negotiate a peace that would mean the inevitable loss of Southeast Asia to the thalldom of China." The price of peace has always been high. We can win this war, but we are trying to win through the best possible means. Perhaps we should remember the words of John F. Kennedy: ". . . the greatest danger of all would be to do nothing. The cost of freedom is always high, but Americans have always paid it. One path we shall never choose is . . . the path of surrender or submis- sion. Our goal is not the victory of might, but the vindication of right." The words of Mr. Kennedy and Congressman Weltner deserve our support. Be patient; we will win. ARE YOU GUILTY OF THESE COMMON DRIVING ERRORS? Failure to signal properly, failure to dim lights and following other cars too closely rank as the three most common mistakes a survey of professional drivers "Math 'F\ Psyc. 'F", English 'F' an" a 'C in Physical Education. Just shows ya what happens when ya spend yer time studying one subject." made by drivers, according to reported in the Reader's Digest. The "professionals" surveyed were truckers who work for a Michigan fleet and who were asked to list the three most com- mon errors made by passenger- car drivers. Truckers are made extremely nervous by other drivers who follow too closely a fault known as "tailgating" because nothing can be done about it. Speeders, drunks, reckless driv- ers can be arrested before they cause harm. The tailgater can- not be apprehended unless and until his stupidity causes havoc. Almost every driver has oc- casionally been subjected to the blinding glare of an oncoming driver who refuses to dim his lights. Equally blinding, say the truckers, is the driver who fails to dim when following another car. Failure to signal properly ranks No. 1 on the truckers' list of driving errors. Despite finger- tip signal indicators, all too many drivers fail to switch on their signals when they should or turn them off at the proper time. Other faults that make the truckers see red include stop- ping in a right-hand lane to make a left turn; drivers with children or dogs in their laps; lack of taillights; and driving too slowly on a high-speed high- way. The Digest article lists a number of additional driving errors, as well as a twelve-point check list for safer driving. In- cluded among the latter are such suggestions as these: Al- ways fasten your seat belt snug- ly; make sure the attendant wipes your headlights as well as your windshield when you stop for gas; and never hesitate to yield the right of way. By following these and the other suggestions in the article, you can cut substantially your own risk of accident, and also help make the roads safer for other drivers. Teaehing Now Glamorous Profession "Yesterday the teacher was the respectable but shabby or- phan of our society. Today he's the man of the hour." So says an article in the Feb- ruary Reader's Digest. It points out that teaching is now the country's largest profession, ed- ucation its fastest-growing in- dustry and the demand so far exceeding the supply that good teachers are being recruited with an ardor once reserved for all-American football players. Growing population accounts for part of the increased need for teachers, notes author Les- ter Velie. But it is by no means the whole story. New kinds of teaching are springing up all across the country. One example is the "early childhood teacher," a specialist trained to work with preschool children to remedy deficiencies bred in the child's home, An- other kind of specialist is the guidance counselor, who tests students' aptitudes and steers them toward proper training and careers. Still another is the vocational teacher who can train students in technical skills. The new emphasis on teaching has sharply boosted the prestige and glamour of the profession. Perhaps more to the point, it has helped raise teacher salaries to levels comparable to those of industry. To encourage young men and women to enter the profession, an unprecedented number of scholarships, fellowships and loan opportunities are available. For example, a future teacher can borrow up to $1000 per year while training, then repay only half during his first five years of teaching. Some universities will waive graduate-school fees for future professors. Others have fellowship programs that cover tuition and living ex- penses. As teaching continues to grow in prestige and financial return, students and parents will want to have a good, close look at the once neglected profession that's now become the most glamorous corner of the professional world. Freedom of Speech: A Cherished Constitutional Right By Kenneth Brown The Savannah State College Chapter, NAACP, circulated a petition which protests the de- nial of a seat to Julian Bond. More than 800 signatures were collected. When your radio is playing, it can be turned off if you so de- sire. The fight for freedom can neither be turned off or even slowed down by a knob or the tactics of "little men," Freedom is a natural desire of men every- where. In order to win the bat- tle for freedom, there must be an unrelenting fight. Since the Civil Rights Bill has been signed into law, the majority of Negro Americans think the battle for freedom is over. Negroes must constantly use their new rights by using facilities and resources that were formerly denied them. We are sorry to report that there are certain forces in our society that are trying to deny Negroes free speech. Mr. Bond is a living example of this state- ment. He only gave his opinion, regarding the difficulties that the United States is having in the Viet Nam war and his oppo- sition to the war. As a result of this act, he was denied his seat as a representative in the Geor- gia Assembly. Dr. Martin Luther King in his (Continued on Page 3} February. 1966 THE TIGER'S ROAR Page 3 * * * * EP IS & 'if {0 g **)}'* Art Exhibition Concludes (Reprint from Savannah Morning News) Phillip J- Hampton, assistant professor of fine arts, reports that two art exhibitions at Sa- vannah State College were open for public viewing on Monday and ran through January 25. The National Conference of Artists Traveling Exhibition, which is comprised of art works by young artists as far away as Africa and Hawaii, were shown on the third floor of Hill Hall. Works by Herman Woods and Paul Johnson, two Savannah State College students, were also represented in the art show. The National Conference Art- ists Traveling Exhibition, which was assembled under the direc- tion of Mrs. Virginia Kiah, a local artist, will travel to all sec- tions of the United States and possibly to one or two overseas countries. Hampton also stated that- 11 paintings by Johnson were on display in the Seminar Room of the college library. The paintings by Johnson in- clude "Town and Boundary," "Shadows and Us," "Prevalent Green Essence," "Primeval Pri- mate," "Ultramundane," "Red Goddess," "Bowl Syndicate," "Vacillations," "Green Mobiliza- tion." "Euphony in Red," and Existentialism." BRENDA TRTJDELL Brenila Trudell Named Student of the Month The scholarly Brenda Trudell has been chosen as student of the month. She is a junior chemistry major and mathemat- ics minor. She is a member of the chemi- cal society, secretary of the stu- dent council, dean of pledgees of Alpha Kappa Sorority, and an aspirant for Alpha Kappa Mu National Honor Society and Beta Kappa Chi Scientific So- ciety. Brenda is listed in the 1965-66 Who's Who among colleges and universities. Brenda, who has a cumulative average of 3.59. is a native of Savannah, Georgia, and a member of the 5th Street Baptist Church. FREEDOM (Continued from Page 2) speech at the Atlanta Protest stated that Bond had found "war a poor chisel with which to carve out tomorrow." "It is ironic," he said, "to hear the Georgia Legislature speak so reverently about protecting the U. S. Constitution. This same Legislature allowed one of its governors to say there was not enough money in the U. S. Treasury to enforce integration in Georgia." I feel that Bond has been denied his rights, for some lead- ing Republicans declared that "if unpopular views are to be arbitrarily excluded, as they have been in the Georgia Legis- lature, then the legislative proc- ess, free elections, and free speech can have no meaning." Dvur J achy e . . I Don't Know What He's Got, But . . ." By Jacque Dear Jackye, My boyfriend and I have been going together for almost three weeks. I love him and I think he feels the same way. Before we started "pushing cookies," he was going with a friend of mine who had taken him from a friend of mine who had taken him from a friend of hers. Then the Kidd (me) came along and took him from her (I'm not boasting just being frank). I don't know what it is he's got that attracts the opposite sex, but it's got me! Trouble is how do I keep it from getting the next girl that comes along? How can I keep him all to my- self? The Kidd Dear Kidd. Find the nearest church and tie that knot. Find the nearest isolated island in the South Pa- cific, tie him up and ship him there. Then, find the nearest banana tree and tie him to it: just in case what it is he's got is contagious. Jackye Dear Jackye, I'm stuck on a stud who is as good looking as they come, but he's as dense as a forest. You can put all of his common sense on the point of a pin. I mean he's like way out. I don't know what I'm going to do with him. He does things like leave my house, when he comes to call, to get a pack of cigarettes, then forgets where I live. He sets his watch an hour fast so he'll never be late for an appointment and then he has the audacity to show up 15 minutes late. He took only one hour last quarter (P.Ed.). He flunked and then had 3 overcuts. What's a girl to do? "Charli" Dear "Charli," Print your address in large let- ters on the windshield of his car or always keep a pack of cigar- ettes on hand when he comes to call. Set his watch an hour and fifteen minutes fast, and hire him a tutor. If these attempts fail, throw up your hands in despair. One good thing you must admit: there's never a dull moment. Jackye Dear Jackye, My boyfriend does not like for girls to wear make-up. I like him a great deal and I'm anx- ious for him to like me, too. But I also want to look as nice as I can. What can I do to change his mind about make-up? "Doll face" Dear "Doll face", Let him see you one morning without it. Jackye Dear Jackye, There is a fellow that I admire very much, but he has a girl friend who is very jealous. I feel that he likes me, but is afraid to let me know it. How can I get him to let himself go? Impatient Dear Impatient, They say that love is a many splendored thing. If it's really as good as all that, maybe you should go after it instead of waiting for it to come to you. Since this fellow has a girl- friend, it could be that he's won- dering how to go about getting line Ryles you to let yourself go. If your admiration is as strong as you say it is, walk up to him and go for yourself. P.S.: Make sure his you-know- what isn't around. Jackye Dear Jackye, What would you do if two lonely soldiers, whom you loved equally as well, "asked you to marry them? Puzzled Dear Puzzled, I'd probably cut myself into two equal parts and marry both of them. What would you do? Jackye Zeta Phi Beta Sorority News By Soror Margie D. Bryant Founder's Day of the Zeta Phi Beta Sorority was celebrated on January 15. 1966 at Butler Pres- byterian Church. Present for this occasion were members of both Rho Beta and Alpha Theta Zeta Chapters. There were many out-of-town Zeta's present. Soror Ann Morris, a graduate of the 1965 class of SSC, was also in town for the occasion. At the annual regional con- ference Rho Beta Chapter re- ceived a trophy on their scrap- book. Ruth Zelgler was the re- cipient of the regional scholar- ship. Delegates for the confer- ence were Sorors Betty Cohen and Mary Lewis. Soror Cohen, our past presi- dent and Soror Mildred Hicks completed their required work for graduation and they both are teaching now. The sorors of Zeta Phi Beta FASHIONS Jean Stewart Dear Fashionwise, What does 1966 hold in store for you? Surely there are many pleasant things in store for you. You will be going many places and making new friends. As in 1965, you will continue to look your best. Why not take a look at the fashion forecast for 1966? It is interesting to take note that many of the 1965 fashion hits are still around in 1966. One spot where fashion fo- cuses this season is on impor- tant new sleeves that swing out like a bell, adding graceful flow and movement to shares already existing. Yes, bell bottoms are still around. Why, everybody's wear- ing them. Have you ever heard of a low- down swinger? Well, the line of the moment just happens to be the low-down line that by-pass the waist to light on the hip- bone. And what goes on below that is all swing and sway, or a breezy swish of pleats. These low-down swingers are most popular in a one-piece dress that looks like two. with its solid low-down top and swaying check skirt. The two-piece dress is still a winner. Why? Perhaps, it's be- cause two parts are so easy to fit even when the figure is less perfect. And everyone seems to want the long easy look of an overblouse. Coming back into fashion is the long distinctive look of the two-piece tunic dress. Fashion designers have endorsed the idea of the tunic dress being worn by short as well as tall women. They tend to make short women look taller and slimmer. Bold bright color is the sign for '66. Not one color alone, but at least two or three preferably in brash off-beat combinations of navy and gold, red and gold or purple and red. What ever you do this year, Robert Brown By Robert Brown Each year brings something new and nineteen sixty-six is not an exception. This young year has not only brought new fashions but it has revised some of the older ones too. The vari- ous attires for this winter sea- son are off to a blazing start, with styles so uniquely different that they are simply marvelous. The year's number one new look is the "look of silk" coat style sweater worn with a silk- knit turtle-neck shirt. The pull- over V-neck silk sweater is a garment that looks good all the time. Silk is the key word in fabric for the nineteen sixty-six men's fashions. Esquire Magazine says nine- teen sixty-six has brought the double-breasted jacket back after more than twenty years of single-breasted domination. The double-breasted coat front is coming back in blazers, suit jackets and outer coats. Once the double - breasted jacket caught on as a fashion style in its own right, the blazer under- went a series of changes. Since the thirties, little has been seen of the double-breasted blazer. A few years ago however, a hand- ful of very fashion conscious men started to wear them again, and a general revival caught on. Double-breasteds are no longer an uncommon sight. So fellow SSC men let's start the year off right. Be an informed fashion- able dress scholar. waste no time in trying to figure out how you can look your best. Just follow the fashion forecast. Yours in fashion, Jean Stewart are happy to have pinned seven archonians. They are Caroline Graham, Edna Branch, Betty Lovette, Matilda Brown, Olivette Battle, Maereen Cohen, Con- stance Brannen and Thelma Al- britton. Delta Nu Chapter By Barbara Wilhlte From the Delta Nu Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., come the best wishes to all of you for a prosperous year. With the theme "The Past Prolonged" the chapter pre- sented the All-college assembly on January 21st. This program was in observance of the found- ing of Delta Sigma Theta Soror- ity. A skit entitled, "A Dream Come True" was performed by Sorors Gloria Duncan, Constance Heath, Catherine Johnson, Min- nie Hudson, Louise Tarber, Ge- nell Hughes, Laura Eady, Joyce Washington, Angela Mack. Rose Warren, Antlonette Battlste, Everlyn Brown, and Barbara Wllhite. Advising System Needs Volunteers (ACP> A lot of red tape, extra work, and inconvenience could easily be eradicated with the adoption of a voluntary ad- vising system for upper division students, says the Daily Calfor- nian. University of California, Berkeley. Now the "advising problem" rests in the lap of the typical University adviser who is usually uninformed about his advisee's requirements and often couldn't care less. A voluntary program would entail establishment of a smali, concerned group if advisers, per- haps graduate students, who are as qualified to speak about courses as most professors to aid those students who are un- sure about their course selec- tions. Such advisers, if they are graduates, would be able to speak much more freely about the relative worth of the lec- turers in his department or school, a subject which few fac- ulty advisers dare approach. For in a school such as ours, it is the professors, not the courses, which determine whether the student becomes educated or does busywork. The majority of upper division students, however, will not likely need such help. Most of them have learned by this time, usu- ally from friends who have gone before them, which instructors to take and which to avoid. As for those who claim this program would not insure that the student is fulfilling his re- quirements, we would reply that something is seriously lacking in the University's offerings if a 20-year-old junior does not have the maturity and intelligence to determine the requirements he must complete, realizing that if he chooses recklessly, he will have to reap the consequences. While voluntary upper divi- sion advising appears promis- ing, such a system would prob- ably be ineffective for entering students, who cannot be ex- pected to quickly grasp all of the University's requirements. Whatever system is eventually adopted, the need for reform is apparent to even the most cas- ual observer of the University scene. We hope by the time the new quarter system is initiated next fall, the students will find a new, if only experimental, advising system.

JEFFREY JAMES James Completes Research Studies By Jannie Singleton Jeffrey James, a senior chem- istry major from Savannah, Georgia, recently returned from Argonne National Laboratory in Chicago, Illinois, where he has. been working as a student re- search aide for the fall quarter 1965. His work was basically a group project concerned with "Chemical and Associated En- ergy Problems in Reactor Safety." For the first two and half months Jeffrey and associates studied the chemical properties of coolants used in preventing the melt down of reactors and the absorption of gamma radia- tion coming out from the care of the reactor. The latter one and half month was centered around analytical methods of determining the percentage and milligrams of cold and hot met- als found in samples coming from the reactor. Jeffrey's overall accumulative average of B, his experience in chemical research, his integrity, his desire for advance study and the promise of his success in his chosen field enabled him to se- cure the position as student re- search aide. From the experiences gained at Argonne, Jeffrey feels that "every qualified student of sci- ence should have the opportu- nity to work in a laboratory sim- ilar to Argonne because it is at such laboratories where the ap- plication of scientific procedures is done with greater productiv- ity." Although Jeffs graduation set for June '66 will be prolonged, the experiences and additional educational knowledge received from such a challenging adven- ture would be beneficial and worthwhile to him in continuing graduate work in his selected field. Chemical seminar is still a great attraction on the Depart- ment of Chemistry's weekly cal- endar. Speakers will consist of senior chemistry majors who have done some work in research and guest lecturers. All inter- ested persons are cordially in- vited to attend seminars which are presented Tuesday night at 6:00 P.M.

The students are Walter are Brown. Charles Savage, Arthur Curtwright, Benjamin Kelson, Clifford Spikes. Theodore Bow- man, Joseph Redmon, Joseph Green and Lee Fluker. Walter Brown will work as a lifeguard in all swimming classes. Joseph Green and Theo- dore Bowman will serve as life- guards as soon as recreational swimming is set up. Mrs. Geraldine Abernathy, As- sistant Professor of Physical Ed- ucation, and Alvin Frazier, In- structor of Swimming, were also enrolled in the class. The class was taught by Fred Lindsay, Water Instructor from the Savannah Chapter of the American Red Cross. Lee Fluker demonstrates the "cross chest carry" on Walter P. Brown. The two recently completed a water safety course at SSC. Southeastern Newspaper Competition Sponsored By Hollins College HOLLINS COLLEGE, Virginia College and university news- papers in six states competed last winter for awards in the second annual Southeastern Newspaper Competition spon- sored by Hollins College and eight leading daily newspapers. Eligible are college and uni- versity newspapers in Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Tennessee, published between September, 1965, and January, 1966. Deadline for submitting con- test entries will be February 15, 1966. In addition to awards for the best college or university daily, the best non-daily, the best newspaper published at a wo- man's college, and for superior news writing, feature writing, editorial page, and regular col- umns, a new classification will be added to the 1965-66 compe- tition. The Raleigh, N. C, News and Observer will offer a trophy for all-around excellence in a newspaper of whatever classifi- cation. Newspapers judging categories of competition and awarding trophies to the winners are the Charleston, S C, News and Courier; the Charleston, W. Va., Gazette and Sunday Gazette- Mail; the Columbus, Ga., Ledger- Enquirer; the Nashville Tennes- sean; the Raleigh, N. C, News and Observer; the Richmond. Va., Times-Dispatch and News Leader; the Roanoke, Va., Times and World-News; and the Vir- ginian-Pilot and Ledger-Star of Norfolk-Portsmouth, Va. "Hollins College is pleased to join with these outstanding daily newspapers in the South- east in sponsoring a college newspaper awards competition for the second year," President Logan said. "The first year's competition was a great success, and both the number of college newspa- pers entering the competition and the quality of the journal- ism contained in those news- papers were very impressive." He cited the role which college newspapers play in "stimulating the intellectual life of a cam- pus," and expressed the hope that the competition will en- courage more Southeastern col- lege and university graduates to enter journalism as a profession. Winners and honorable men- tions will be announced in early April, and presentation of awards will be made at an awards banquet at Hollins Col- lege in early May. Trophies offered and their 1965 winners are: The Nashville Tennessean Award for the best college daily newspaper in the Southeast; no winner last year. News and editorial staffs of newspapers awarding trophies will serve as judges of the com- petitions for which the awards will be made. Miss Frances Bray Shinnick, of Richmond, Va., ed- itor of the Hollins College news- paper, will direct the event. Say, sports fans. I guess you've heard Stevie Wonder's new rec- ord, "Purple Raindrops." Well, have you heard about Savannah State's conference record? The Tigers are really on the ball, having won six of their last nine games. Coach Richardson's bas- keteers exemplify the traits of a well organized team. He has never started the same five cagers twice and has had tre- mendous success with this sys- tem. He starts the player that will be most capable to handle the opponent. The bench strength of the team is remark- able. On several occasions, this is what won the game. In the Georgia Classic which was held at Fort Valley State College, December 10-11, Sylves- ter Reddick, better known as "Boddie" came off the bench in the second quarter and scored 12 - points, which sparked the team to a win over Albany. His defensive ability combined with his scoring at the time most needed made the officials see fit to name him all-tourna- ment. In the Albany game in Albany, Georgia, Reddick came off the bench again to tally 21 points. This, along with Charles Day's 12 points and Charles Rutland's key rebounds, propelled the mighty Tigers to win. Another incident showing SSC's "off the bench strength" was exemplified when SSC played Paine College of Augusta. Ronald Booker came off the bench and held Paine College's leading scorer, who averages 33 points a game, to 16 points. Meanwhile, Vernon Jennings sparked the team to victory after coming from behind 19-8. Charles Rutland and Clark Brooks did an excellent job of scraping the rebounds off the board. Rutland also tallied 19 points. Jerome Johnson came off the bench in the Voorhees game while State was trailing 14 points and sparked the team to a near victory. The most exciting game was Albany State vs. Savannah State, January 22, 1966. The score in this game was tied sev- eral times and with 24 seconds left in the game, Albany led 62- 60. Coach Richardson alerted his cagers to call time out. the gym was silent; the team tension was extremely high. The spectators were entangled in a brainstorm wondering what now?? Coach Richardson knew the answer. He immediately sent Frank Ellis and Vernon Jennings into the game. The clock steadily ticking the valuable seconds 24. 20, 17, 10, 9, 8. At 7 seconds it seemed as though it was hopeless but sports fans, it wasn't as hopeless as it seemed. Frank El- lis took a jump shot that was about 20 feet from the basket and the net made a familiar sound, whis-s-h. The score was tied 62-62 and the buzzer sounded. The crowd was so excited and happy that they darted across the hardwood to hug, kiss, and mainly to congratulate the team. I think that some of the fans thought the game was over and that our team was going to set- tle for a tie. Unfortunately for Albany, there are no ties in bas- ketball; there has to be a victor. The 5 minutes overtime was Sa- vannah State's all the way. Ver- non Jennings make the first bas- Sports Outlook With Lewis Witherspoon and Frank Ellis Well, sports fans, a new year is here. We are all looking forward to more action in the wide world of sports, but first let's look at the action packed sports highlights of 1965. Arthur Ashe, a 21-year-old Ne- gro, and third-ranked tennis player In the country, defeated Rafael Osuna, Mexico's top player, to lead the United States tennis team to victory over Mexico in the Davis Cup Compe- tition. The brilliant Michel Jazy of France, who is considered to be the finest middle-distance run- ner of our time, broke the world record for the mile run with a time of three minutes fifty- three and six-tenths of a sec- ond (3:53.6). The Los Angeles Dodgers won the world series by beating the Minnesota Twins in the seventh and final game. Sandy Koufax, the Dodgers' great pitcher, was selected sportsman of the year. Tony Olica won the American League batting championship for the second consecutive year. Willie Mays won the most val- uable player award in the Na- tional League. Cassius Clay won the heavy- weight boxing championship in a miss-match with Floyd Pat- terson. Craig Bleedlove, a 27-year-old California hot rodder, drove his three-wheeled "Spirit of Amer- ica" to a land speed record of 6006 miles per hour. The Green Bay Packers won the National Football League championship by defeating the Cleveland Browns 23-13. Gale Sayers won the rookie of the year award, and set a new N.F.L. scoring record by racing to 21 touchdowns. Joe Namotn won the rookie of the year award In the A.M.L. The players in the N.F.L. se- lected Jim Brown as the most valuable player. The Crimson Tide of Alabama was rated the best college team In the country, after they de- feated Nebraska In the Orange Bowl. For the first time the N.F.L. picked two quarterbacks to the all-pro team. The players were Johnny Unltas and John Biodie Mike Garrett became the sec- ond Negro in history to win the Heisman trophy. Arnold Palmer became golf's all-time money winner. Zoilo Versalles was selected the American League's most val- uable player. SSC's Coach Richard Wash- ington was named track coach of the year in the Southeastern Athletic Conference. Coach Leo Richardson became the president of Southeastern Athletic Conference. This is a first in SSC's history. Georgia's capital city, Atlanta, acquires a professional football and baseball team for the '66 season. The West was no match for the East in the professional bas- ketball and football games. With a few sport highlights tucked away in our minds, we bid farewell to '65, and hope for a better year of sports in '66. On the Intramural Scene "Morainge in Action" (Continued i 7) Phys. Edueation Club Organized By Clemontine Freeman Because of the stress being placed on physical activities for children and adults, the physi- cal education majors felt that they could be of service to the profession and organized as a group. The club will meet bi-monthly to participate in all kinds of planned activities and to con- duct discussions concerning the profession. The following officers were elected: President, Robert Bell; Vice-President, Frank Ellis'. Sec- retary Clemontine Freeman; and Reporter, Horace Graham. The club is advised by Mrs. Ella W. Fisher, Assistant Profes- sor of Physical Education. Physical Fitness Is Important Physical fitness is for every- body . . . and not just for these varsity athletes on the field here today. Because all our young people will have to make the grade physically, as well as men- tally, in the future they will live and work in. This future belongs to the fit.

No matter what part of the country you call 'home," there is a job for you at a Girl Scout camp. This year, a staff of 18,000 will be required for the 700 Girl Scout camps in every part of the country. Operated by more than 500 Girl Scout councils, the camps give many thousands of girls, from seven through 17, a chance to live, work and play with girls of different back- grounds in the relaxed, informal atmosphere of the out-of-doors. Among the basic requirements for counselors are love of chil- dren, sympathy with the objec- tives and philosophy of Girl Scouting, good health, enthusi- asm, patience and adaptability. Previous Girl Scout or other camping experience is helpful, but not essential. Salaries vary with the assign- ment and with the candidate's experience, qualifications, and training. Administrative jobs require specialized experience. Appli- cants must be at least 25 years of age for Camp Director's jobs, which require camping, admin- istrative, and supervisory exper- ience, plus familiarity with the Girl Scout program. Twenty-five is the minimum age for the jobs of Assistant Camp Director; 21 for Health Supervisor, a regis- tered nurse with first-aid train- ing; Food Supervisor, training in institutional management; and Waterfront Director, holding a current water-safety certificate. Program Consultant posi- tions, for women at least 18, of- fer opportunities to work with girls in a wide variety of special interests and activities such as songs and games; dramatics; arts and crafts; nature and camping. Eighteen is the minimum age for the thousands of coun- selors needed to live and work with the girls in their units. Women interested in jobs near home should call their nearby Girl Scout council or visit the local office of the State Employment Service. Those who wish to learn about opportuni- ties in another part of the coun- try should send a resume to: Recruitment and Referral Divi- sion, Girl Scouts of the U.S.A., 830 Third Avenue, New York, N Y 10022. SSC Presents Organ Recital The latest event in the cur- rent Lyceum Series at Savannah State College took place Tues- day night, January 11, when the Committee on Campus Cultural Activities presented Mr. Bene Hammel in an organ recital at 8:15 in Meldrim Auditorium on the college campus. According to Dr. Coleridge A. Braithwaite. Chairman of the Committee and also Chairman of the Depart- ment of Fine Arts, the recital was opened to the public with- out charge and everyone was cordially invited to attend. Mr. Hammel is a native of Chattanooga. Tennessee, and his ability as an organist was rec- ognized early by the Chatta- nooga Chapter of the American Guild of Organists under whose sponsorship he presented many recitals in several states. He has played in several schools and colleges throughout the nation, and his recitals in New York and Washington have attracted fine comments from music critics. The organist holds a Bachelor of Music degree from the Univer- sity of Chattanooga, and he has written many works for choruses and for the organ. At the pres- ent time he is serving as staff organist and musical consultant for the Institutional and Church Organ Division of the Baldwin Piano and Organ Company of Cincinnati, Ohio. The program on Tuesday night included several organ composi- tions from the literature of Bach, Handel, Purceell, Arne, and other famous composers. The second half of the program was devoted to music of the 19th century and the present day. Strauss and Liszt was heard, and the recital closed with se- lections from "My Fair Lady" and Bernstein's "West Side Story." Camilla Hubert Hall Establishes Committees The dormitory council of Ca- milla Hubert Hall is striving to make the living conditions more comfortable and enjoyable for its residents. The Camilla Hall residents have established several com- mittees to carry out designated tasks. These committees include the Social, the Cultural, the Scholarship, the Religious and several other committees. The social committee is de- signed to plan and carry out so- cial activities each quarter to entertain the residents. The Chairman, Miss Miriam Thomas, says that there is a valentine party scheduled for this quarter. Miss Azoloy Howard is Chair- man of the cultural committee, whose function it is to present a cultural program each quarter. This committee has some very interesting projects in mind for the next two quarters. It is the duty of the scholar- ship committee, headed by Shir- ley McDuffey. to post on the bulletin board the name of all the girls who make the Dean's List or Honor Roll. This group has done much to stimulate the girls toward academic excellence. Miss Janie Harmon and the girls on the concession commit- tee are on the job selling hot dogs and other concessions to earn money for the big, big event of the season, the Cotton Ball, which will be held during the spring quarter. This is the event that all C.H.H. girls are looking forward to with great anticipation. The other committees not mentioned are very active and are to be commended for their work. Our dormitory is proud to have received a washer-dryer combi- nation while we were away for the holidays. I am confident that Santa granted us our wishes. Camilla Hubert Hall chal- lenges each of you to make this year more prosperous and re- warding than the previous one. Men of Alpha By Brothers Ray Bostwick and Carl Phillips The brothers of Delta Eta Chapter, of Alpha Phi Alpha, initiated seventeen new mem- bers into the fraternity during the week of November 15. They are as follows: David Wells, James Dean, Jack Handy. Hol- loray Benjamin, Rickey Cooper, Joe Elliott Crowder, Larry Davis, Benjamin Densler, John Harris, Prince Johnson, Frank Mack, John Mitchell, Carl Phillips, Franklin Robinson, Bobby War- ren, Roosevelt Winfrey, and Jo- seph Young. The brothers of Delta Eta welcome these neo- phyte brothers, and are looking forward to working with them in keeping with the great tradition of Alpha Phi Alpha. During the following month, Delta Eta presented its annual Founders Day Program. On this occasion. Brother Benjamin Lewis spoke on the topic "Great Men Are Institutions Within Themselves." Also, during this same month the brother of Al- pha Phi Alpha embarked upon another of its civil projects. This project, spearheaded by President William Martin, was a campaign to collect and de- liver toys and food to the needy families of Savannah. These ar- ticles were delivered on Christ- mas Eve, and the families ac- cepted them with sincere grati- tude. We, the Brother of Delta Eta. wish to express our deepest appreciation for all who con- tributed and helped make this project a success. SPORTS (Continued from Page 5) ket which broke the tee. Charles Rutland also off the bench made two baskets In succession which sewed the game up. Meanwhile Albany added 4 points but the fact that the time was almost gone and Frank Ellis adding 2 more points put the game out of Albany's reach. Savannah State won the game with 4 points to spare, the final score was 71-66. On the intramural side of bas- ketball, the leaders of the pack are the "Mighty Pistons." They now possess a 4-0 record, having defeated the Mustangs, Cassa- nova Ten, YMCA and the Sweepers. The members of the team are Reginald Adams, Felix Bell, Bobby Carter. Charles Fer- guson. Horace Graham, Acie Mc- Cullough, Robert Moore. John Saunders and Ernest White The coach staff consists of Carlos Westmore (Head Coach), Robert Spencer (Assistant) and Walter Fulton (Assistant). The National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics re- vealed recently that Johnny Comeaux of Grambling, La., who is averaging 36.5 points a game in ten starts, has jumped into a solid lead in the NAIA basket- ball scoring race. The 6-5 senior from Grambling captured the top spot from 5-10 Gary Liberatore, New Haven, Conn., who Is second this week with a 33.5 average. Third is Bill Hicks, St. Mary of the Plains, Kan., who has 32.5 aver- age. Commeaux of Gambling also leads in two other catego- ries as he has paced the Tigers torrid 10-0 start this season. He has hit 63 of 64 free throws, tries for a .984 average and has hit 146 of 194 field goals tries for a .725 average. Indiana State, with only one loss in 13 starts, has pushed its way into the team offense lead, averaging 103.5 points a game. Indiana also Is on top in win- ning margin with a 30.4 mark. Nine teams are averaging 100 or more points a game. Southeast- ern Oklahoma State leads in de- fense with 55.2 average. Morris College (S.C.) owns the best team field goal average, a blistering .782 mark, while Gambling is second with a .626. The team free throw leader is Carson-Newman (Tenn.), which has hit 173 of 208 tries for an average of .832. Marvin Lewis, who retained the No. 1 position in Individual rebounding with 23 caroms a game, has helped Southampton (N.Y.) gain a tie in rebounding with Central State (Ohio), each with .663. Well sports fans. I say to you, keep on rooting for your team as you have been doing in the past. I say to the team, keep on winning. Finally I say to coach Richardson, keep on doing the tremendous job of coaching as you have been doing and always remember, win or lose, we're be- hind you 100%. EMERGENCY COMMITTEE (ACP) Ohio Wesleyan Uni- versity's new emergency com- mittee, established by Circle K, service organization, to provide quick assistance to the Dela- ware. Ohio, area in times of dis- aster, Is a worthwhile project deserving of student attention, says the Transcript. Last year students joined the Delaware Civil Defense and res- cue squads to help victims of a tornado. The help was both needed and appreciated. And though tornados do not make frequent appearances In the area, other natural disasters are possible for instance, the periodic flooding of the Olen- tangy River. The new committee has met with enthusiasm both on and off campus. The local Red Cross and Civil Defense officials have sanctioned the committee, and University President Elden T. Smith has given committee leaders permission to take stu- dents from the classroom in emergencies. He also named WSLN as a vehicle for transmit- ting bulletins concerning emer- gency measures. About 60 students have joined so far. Some have probably looked at It as an easy way to win points for the ATO Service Trophy. We would hope, how- ever, that In a more conscien- tious spirit, students will view It as a way to help the community.

An Open House will be held THE TIGER'S ROAR NAACP Sponsors Voter Registration Drive By Kenneth Brown In every election held in Sa- vannah and Chatham County in recent years, the members of the College Chapter of the NAACP have participated. The members of the college chapter will con- duct an intensive voter regis- tration campaign. The purpose of the drive is to encourage Ne- gro citizens to register and vote. The members of the College Chapter will visit each residence, urging Negroes to register so that they may vote for the can- didate that will do the Negro community the most good. For the most part, this effort by the College Chapter has been very effective in past elections. Since the passage of the 1965 Voting Rights Bill, it is very easy for people to qualify to vote by registering. The new law struck down literacy tests. Even if a person is unable to sign his name, it is possible for him to register by making a simple X. Therefore, all Negro citizens who have never been convicted of a felony are eligible to register. Voting is one of the most im- portant weapons for the Negroes to use in their battle for free- dom. All citizens should realize that one vote can make quite a bit of difference. Do not feel that your vote is not important. It may very well be that your one vote will be the deciding factor in the election. The SSC Chapter of the NAACP urges all organizations and student groups to join in this civic effort. If you want to put your knowledge of Govern- ment into practical use, join in the effort to register Negro cit- izens. Volume 19, Number 3^ immediately after the Dedlca- = tlon Program. (Buildings.

Library Presents Saint-Simon Exhibition The Savannah State College Library is presenting a photo- graphic exhibition on Saint-Si- mon, the French philosopher and social reformer. This his- toric exhibition is on loan to the college library from the Cultural Division of the French Embassy. Saint Simon is known to mod- ern scholars through his disci- ples, who have developed a sys- tem called Saint-Simonianism. The Saint-Simonians advocated social equality, increased atten- tion to education, the abolition of hereditary rights and also fos- tered disarmament. A few of the photographs on exhibition include: Chateau of La Ferte-Vldame, Battle of Neerwinde in Brabant, France Victorious by Sea and On Land Under the Orders of Louis the Great, Portrait of Marie-Gabri- elle de Lorge, Chateau of Ver- sailles, The Grand Dauphin, Ma- rie-Adelaide of Savoie, and Phil- ippe V, King of Spain. The public is invited to view the exhibition.

S. has always been a country in love with the future. Americans have never quite shared the traditional notion that praying into tomorrow is suspect if not downright dangerous the sort of feeling that made Dante consign soothsayers to the fourth chasm of the Inferno. On the contrary, the U. S. readily accepted the fact that modern science established progress as a faith and the fu- ture as an earthly Eden. Yet recently, the American passion for the future has taken a new turn Leaving Utopians and science-fiction writers far be- hind, a growing number of pro- fessionals have made prophecy a serious and highly organized enterprise. They were forced into It by the fact that technology has ad- vanced more rapidly in the past 50 years than in the previous 5.000. Men in business, govern- ment, education and science it- self realize that they must look at least two decades ahead just to keep abreast, must learn to survive under totally different conditions. The new futurists, as they sometimes call themselves, are well aware of past failures of vision. Soon after World War II, top U. S. scientists dismissed and derided the notion of an accu- rate Intercontinental ballistic missile, and as late as 1956, Brit- ain's Astronomer Royal called the prospect of space travel "ut- ter bilge." Relying on the atom's almost limitless energy, the com- puter's almost limitless "intel- lect," the futurists predict an era of almost limitless change. With remarkable confidence, and In considerable detail, they present a view of man not only in total control of his environ- ment but of his own brain and his own evolution. New Skill & Time The exploration of the future has become a sizable business. General Electric has set up Tempo (Technical Management Planning Organization) in Santa Barbara, where 200 physical sci- entists, sociologists, economists and engineers contemplate the future on a budget that tops $7,000,000 a year. The armed forces have long been in the fu- ture business. The Air Force, at Wright-Patterson A.P.B., con- ducts studies of the whole prob- lem of scientific prediction, also contributes $15 million a year to Santa Monica's Rand Corp. to think and not necessarily about weapons systems. The nonprofit Hudson Institute In- vestigates the possibilities of war and peace along with tjie future in general. At the University of Illinois, Dr. Charles Osgood is conducting a "computerized ex- ploration of the year 2000," and the Southern Illinois University is providing money and facilities for Buckminster Fuller's World Resources Inventory- The Amer- ican Academy of Arts and Sci- ences helps to support the Com- mission on the Year 2000, headed by Columbia Sociologist Daniel Bell. The Ford Foundation has allocated $1,400,000 this year to a group called Resources for the Future, also supports a Paris- based organization, headed by Veteran Futurist Bertrand de Jouvenel, whose studies are known as "Les Futuribles." Forecasting is an art that still has few textbooks. Its basic tool is extrapolation from yesterday and today. As John McHale. ex- ecutive director of World Re- sources Inventory, puts it: "The future of the future is in the present." Some other methods seem fairly arcane. Defense Ex- pert Herman Kahn. for instance, uses "scenario writing," in which various alternative future situa- tions are dramatized. Some fore- casters use computers to produce a symbolic "model" of particular social or economic structures including whole industries or na- tionsand then simulate the interaction of variables. Rand uses the "Delphi" method, in which a wide range of experts are queried and re-queried for their forecasts, arriving finally at a near-consensus. Prognos- ticators concede that the timing and nature of pure inventions or basic breakthroughs such as the achievement of atomic fis- sion are not predictable. In many cases, they must still rely on "imaginings." In the recent flood of fore- casts, what are the futurists saying? By no means are all their predictions new. but taken together, they present a remark- able vision. Most convenient benchmark for that vision is the year 2000. a rounded and ro- mantic date that is nearer than is generally realized only 34 years away, it is nearly as close as the election of Franklin D. Roosevelt. People & Weather By AD. 2000. the U. S. popu- lation will have risen to about 330 million, and nine out of ten Americans will be living in su- percities or their suburbs. But cities, like industry, will tend to decentralize; with instant com- munications, it will no longer be necessary for business enter- prises to cluster together.

Dylan Interview Featured In March Playboy The March Issue of Playboy features an interview with Bob Dylan, top recording star, poet and favorite on the nation's college campuses. Following are highlights from this interview: On protest songs: "I've stopped composing and singing anything that has either a reason to be written or a mo- tive to be sung. Don't get me wrong, now. 'Protest' is not my word. I've never thought of my- self as such. The word 'protest.' I think, was made up for peo- ple undergoing surgery. It's an amusement-park word. A nor- mal person in his righteous mind would have to have the hiccups to pronounce It honestly. The word 'message' strikes me as having a hernialike sound. It's just like the word 'delicious.' Also the word 'marvelous.' You know, the English can say 'mar- velous' pretty good. They can't say 'raunchy' so good, though. Well, we each have our thing. Anyway, message songs, every- body knows, are a drag. It's only college newspaper editors and single girls under 14 that could possibly have time for them. "Anybody that's got a message is going to learn from experience that they can't put it into a song. I mean it's just not going to come out the same message. After one or two of these un- successful attempts, one realizes that his resultant message, which is not even the same mes- sage he thought up and began with, he's now got to stick by it; because, after all, a song leaves your mouth just as soon as it leaves your hands. You've got to respect other people's right to also have a message themselves. Myself, what I'm going to do is rent Town Hall and put about 30 Western Union boys on the bill. I mean, then there'll really be some messages. People will be able to come and hear more messages than they've ever heard before in their life." On his responsibility to his au- dience: "I don't feel I have any responsibility, no. Whoever it is that listens to my songs owes me nothing. How could I possi- bly have any responsibility to any kind of thousands? What could possibly make me think that I owe anybody anything who just happens to be there? I've never written any song that begins with the words 'I've gath- ered you here tonight . . .' I'm not about to tell anybody to be a good boy or a good girl and they'll go to heaven. I really don't know what the people who are on the receiving end of these songs think of me. anyway. It's horrible. I'll bet Tony Bennett doesn't have to go through this kind of thing. I wonder what Billy the Kid would have an- swered to such a question." Is it pointless to dedicate one- self to the cause of peace and racial equality?: "Not pointless to dedicate yourself to peace and racial equality, but rather, it's pointless to dedicate yourself to the cause: that's really pointless That's very unknowing. To say 'cause of peace' is just like say- ing "hunk of butter.' I mean, how can you listen to anybody who wants you to believe he's dedi- cated to the hunk and not to the butter? People who can't con- ceive of how others hurt, they're trying to change the world. They're all afraid to admit that they don't really know each other. They'll all probably be here long after we've gone, and we'll give birth to new ones. But they themselves I don't think they'll give birth to anything." On the burning of draft cards From the Editor's Desk... By Robert L. Joiner, Jr. 2 and Joan Baez' refusal to pay her income tax both protests against war: "Burning draft cards isn't going to end any war. It's not even going to save any lives. If someone can feel more honest with himself by burning his draft card, then that's great; but if he's just going to feel more important because he does it, then that's a drag. I really don't know too much about Joan Baez and her income-tax problems. The only thing I can tell you about Joan Baez is that she's not Belie Starr." On folk music: "Folk music is a bunch of fat people. I have to think of all this as traditional music. Traditional music is based on hexagrams. It comes about from legends, Bibles, plagues, and it revolves around vegetables and death. There's nobody that's going to kill tradi- tional music. All these songs about roses growing out of peo- ple's brains and lovers who are really geese and swans that turn into angels they're not going to die. It's all those paranoid peo- ple who think that someone's going to come and take away their toilet paper they're going to die. Songs like Which Side Are You On? and I Love You, Porgy they're not folk-music songs; they're political songs. They're already dead." On the far-out hair styles of some of today's male singers: "The thing that most people don't realize is that it's warmer to have long hair. Everybody wants to be warm. People with short hair freeze easily. Then they try to hide their coldness, and they get jealous of every- body that's warm. Then they If Savannah State College's student body was asked to make a list of things which their Alma Mater needs, one guess that they would mention several hundred things. One wonders, however, would the student body think of the fact that they are more fortunate than many students of several other small colleges. A letter from Bernard Rapoport, Trustee, Paul Quinn College, stirred me to think how fortunate SSC's student body is. Mr. Rapo- port's letter states in essence; Paul Quinn College is a Negro church college here in Waco. (It Is integrated formally, but "Whites" have not come.) We have been able to build a new library that will hold 50.000 books; we only have 14,000 books to go in it. Most of the shelves therefore are bare. The students here are good kids they are having to struggle up from preparatory schooling that, in many cases, was not rigorous enough. The trustees of the college want to start a drive to get good books and textbooks into our library, and they have designated me to find ways to get these books. It occurred to us, during a recent board meeting, that many of the college students use their books and then don't want to keep some of them, but really can't get what they're worth in selling them back to the book stores, and that perhaps many of these students would like the idea of giving such books to the library at Paul Quinn. Perhaps also, in some cases, college book- stores in your State would find it feasible to ship spare quan- tities of good, current, college-level books to the library here rather than returning them somewhere to be abandoned. This is as far as our thinking has gone on this. I am writing to ask if you, your paper, or a group at your school might want to take the pass and make a run with it. All I am really sure of is, that the students who come to the library at Paul Quinn ought to be able to choose from among shelves that are full of good books. We know you will seriously consider this appeal for books for the students' use at Paul Quinn. Books may be shipped EXPRESS-COLLECT to: Mrs. Delores Harris. Librarian. Paul Quinn College, Waco, Texas 76704. Mr. Rapoport's letter should stir all who are concerned to think. Savannah State College has a long way to go. but surely it is not at the bottom of the scale. (EDITOR'S NOTE: Any books shipped to Paul Quinn College by any member of the college family would be highly appreciated,) General Sarnoff Predicts Worldwide Direct TV Broadcasting Via Satellite Mankind is on the brink of a Communications Revolution that will change life as profoundly as did the Industrial Revolution of the 19th century. So predicts Brig. Gen. David Sarnoff, Chairman of the Board, Radio Corporation of America, in a March Reader's Digest article, "TV Revolution Ahead!' "In the next five to ten years," he writes, "high-power satellites hovering above the equator will broadcast television directly to set-owners anywhere in the world, without the rebroadcast at the receiving end required to- day. "Long before the year 2000. man will be able to communi- cate instantaneously in sound and sight, in written message and in exchanged computer in- formation with anyone any- where . . . Students in any part of the world will be able to 'at- tend classes' by closed-circuit TV at Oxford or Harvard, the Sor- bonne or Moscow University." It may not be an unmixed blessing. "When a Soviet satellite can telecast directly to a Kansas farm or a U. S. satellite directly to a Hungarian collective farm." asks General Sarnoff, "who will keep this form of communica- tion from turning into a deadly weapon, an instrument for mas- sive subversion and the incite- ment of conflict? "The appeal of television from far-off sources, ultimately in full color, will be almost irresistible. Propaganda, subtle or crude, will come excitingly packaged as en- tertainment, culture, education. become either barbers or Con- gressmen. A lot of prison war- dens have short hair. Have you ever noticed that Abraham Lin- coln's hair was much longer than John Wilkes Booth's?" Thus, a potential for mutual un- derstanding and sharing of knowledge may boomerang in deepened tensions and hatreds." He believes steps should be taken in the next five years to avoid this. "Within 25 years," predicts General Sarnoff, "we will see nationwide or worldwide infor- mation processing utilities analogous to power, water and other utilities. Chains of inter- linked computers will serve hun- dreds of thousands of subscrib- ers .. . "You will be able to converse In sound and sight with people anywhere in the world You will probably have your own personal code number for making and re- ceiving televised phone calls, for obtaining information, credit data and so on." A new biography of the radio, television and aerospace com- munications pioneer, "David Sarnoff" by Eugene Lyons, a Reader's Digest Senior Editor, was published by Harper & Row on Feb. 28, the day after General Sarnoff's 75th birthday.

After working his way through college and graduate school, a young scholar obtained a teach- ing position in a small New Eng- land college. To help him repay government educational loans, his wife, an accomplished cook, worked in a bakery as a pastry chef from 4 a.m. until noon each day. At the midyear faculty party, some of the professors' wives were discussing their extracur- ricular activities. One confessed that she wrote poetry, another was active in community organi- zations, still another was taking a Red Cross first-aid course. "And what do you do. my dear?" the wife of the college president asked the young professor's wife. Hesitating for only a moment, she replied, "I spend a great deal of time making flour arrange- ments." Contributed by John R. Cashman.

"Be The Best Of Whatever You Ain't" By Jacqueline Ryles Dear Jackye, I'm a type of person that is very patient and very easy to please when it comes to my choice of guys. I'm in love with a sophomore and he passes all of my qualifications. My problem is that he seems to be tight with another girl and yet we are attempting to go to- gether. Do you think I should play as second string to his fid- dle or first string considering that the other girl involved will not be hurt. Three String Fiddle Dear Three String, You've heard the poem "Be the Best of Whatever You Are." ". . . If you can't be a tree, Be a bush. If you can't be a bush Be a blade of grass . . ." But when it comes down to boys another very talented poet just wrote : "Why settle for second When you can be first? If he has another. What could be worse? If you can be a mountain Why settle for a hill? If you can have John Why mess with Bill?" Get the message? Jackye Dear Jackye, Being a freshman. I find it difficult to keep a boy friend. You see Jackye I'm desperately in love with a sophomore and he likes me, but there is someone else in the scene. She makes it difficult for this '"iboy to even walk with me. Tell me, should I cast a spell over him? J D. F Dear J. D F., Go right ahead. Knock your- self out. But write me back and let me know how you did it. I might want to try it myself sometimes. Jackye Dear Jackye, I recently became engaged to a fellow whom I love very much. I am "almost" positive that he loves me. The problem is that he is a little jealous. He doesn't seem to trust me at all, even though he knows that my policy is "anti-cheating." How can I make him understand that I am his, alone, forever? Madly In Love Dear Madly, That little green-eyed monster called "jealousy" isn't as bad as he claims he is. If your fiancee didn't care a great deal for you, there wouldn't be any reason for him to be jealous. So you see, it's when that jealousy disap- pears that you'll have a problem certainly not now. Jackye Dear Jackye, I'm deeply concerned about one of our best friends. Each time this guy goes on a trip ithe guy is her boyfriend) she has the audacity to want to mope around on the week-end because he's gone. We ask her to go off campus to a movie or maybe some activity on campus and the reply is, "I don't feel well." What should we do in order for her to get out of this unnecessary ac- tion? Concerned Dear Concerned. If your friend wants to stay in when her fellow's away, let her. If it's as bad as all that, she'd probably just as soon "mope" off campus as she would on campus. Let the kid alone, she'll survive. (I hope so anyway). Jackye Dear Jackye, During my years at State some girls have deemed me a playboy. I admit that at times I do talk to more than one girl but I con- sider it no more than friendship. Sometimes my steady girl jumps to conclusions about these con- versations. I always tell her that there's nothing to it. This very seldom works. Sometimes I think I should excommunicate myself from all these problems and try starting over again after a few months rest. What do you rec- ommend that I do? Michael the Lover Dear Michael, For all of our sakes, please don't excommunicate yourself. We'll miss you around here. What would I recommend? I'm glad you asked my friend. STOP TALKING TO SO MANY GIRLS! Jackye Dear Jackye, I'm madly in love with two fellows and both are madly in love with me. HELP! Mixed up Dear Mixed-up, You don't have a problem, you've got a good thing going. Kick it on out.

At the outset, however, let's make it clear that virtually nmie of these fashions are presently being worn on American campuses. Yet in fashion as in everything else, from extremes emerge the means, and there's no doubl that modified versions of many of these innovations will catch on and be counted among the best college market sellers in the near future. In any case, we thought you'd be interested in hearing about what's happening right now on the London fashion scone, as well as what's being done in Mod fashions in America. "SEE YOU IN CARNABY is the in-phrase among London's way- out swingers these days. Almost overnight, Oarnaby Street, located in London's fashionable West End, has become the center and the source of what the Mods refer to as their "instant fashions." It's an amusing paradox that Carnaby is located a mere 200 yards from Savile Row, long recognized as headquarters for London's most distinguished and conservative tailoring establishments. Who shops Carnaby ? Only the Dave Clark Five, The Rolling Stones, The Animals, four young men named John, George, Paul and Ringo, and a fifth wl sed to be known around town as Anthony Arm- strong- J ones, And what do they, and thousands of their fans and followers, buy there'.' Some pretty surprising fashions . . . THE MOD TUXEDO, for n start, offers plenty uf surprises. Cut light and skinny, it features a ."* or 4-button jacket, high, narrow lapels, very deep side vents, satin belt loops, cuffs, and a wide satin belt. The trousers are tapered in extremis, and the outfit may be worn with black demi-boots. Accessories are radical, if not out- rageous: frills on the cuffs and front of the shirt, plus a very wide bow tie THE MOO MODE, dl apparel areas, is char- Lines rich va model is are colo .u tii i 'il by certain definite trends. The ward- robe is form-fitted, and anything smacking of standardized fashions is "automatically out." The plumage on the male bird is getting brighter nnd snappier, and there's no doubt that it's getting harder all the time to tell the boys apart from the girls. Prices are comparatively high: slacks run anywhere from ?15. to $25. e fluid, and we frequently find strong surface interest in a iety of textured fabrics. In slacks, the low-rise, hip-hugging in. Belts run as wide as three inches, and many of them rfully striped. MUUIoM MOVES ON: here are some more "musts" in the fashion- conscious Mod's wardrobe. A camel suede overshirt with seamed pockets and shoulders, usually worn with slacks tapered to the knee, then flared out to bell bottom cuffs. A pair of giant black-and-white houndstooth check trousers, worn as low as possible. Ticking- striped low-rise jeans worn with a matching snap-front jacket A rugged blue denim shirt with a high-rise collar and cuffs of white broadcloth. A fancy soft leather vest. The Mod Suit which doubles as a sports ensemble merely by unbuttoning the suit collar and re- placing it with a dark collar. And maybe even a black vinyl, double- breasted jacket with slanting side pockets and patch breast pocket. SHIRTING THE MOD usually involves wild prints and even wilder color ideas. Take, for example, the black daisy shirt, a lightweight cotton print that also comes in red, purple the whole spectrum, in fact on a white back- ground. The reverse-print tie is sold along with the shirt; collars are high-rise, and both cuffs and collars are white. Way out? On my recent trip to London, I was assured that it's one of the current best-sellers! And it's now being sold in a few shops across America. MOD-ORIENTED SWEATERS . ra 6 the first fashions to be adopted in this country. Bulky-knit mohairs are popular. Vivid stripes on the sleeves are sometimes repeated on the extra high turtlenecks. The scarf sweater incorporates school colors in an attached panel that wraps around the neck and hangs down in front and back. In any case, the Mod idea is catching on fast. Retailers from Minneapolis to Manhattan are clamoring for Mod fashions. Peacoats. white bell bottoms, the wider use of suede and corduroy : all these recent innovations can be partially attributed to London's Mods, Who can say what will come next? The wider paisley and polka dot ties are already fashion staples! Dramatic changes lie ahead. Copyright. IBM, ESQUIRE. Inc. Want to Keep Your Choppers? Then Chew Over This Advice The gaps that begin to appear in the mouths of most Ameri- cans by middle age can usually be prevented, according to the heartening news in the March Reader's Digest. The trick is to treat your gums as carefully as your teeth In an article, "The Secret of Keeping Your Teeth," author Don Murray reports that science has almost won the fight against tooth decay. But it remains locked in battle against periden- tal disease, or pyorrhea, the slow destruction of the gums which causes the loss of more teeth than decay. The first signs of pyorrhea usually occur in late childhood or adolescence. Its onset is marked by mild inflammation of the gums, usually so slight that it is painless. By the time the disease becomes noticeable, it is often difficult to treat. Thus the key is prevention. Regular visits to your dentist are important. At least twice a year he should check your gums as well as your teeth. Ask him to remove any collections of tar- tar, the cement-like substance which builds up and that cannot be eliminated by brushing. Your dentist can also show you how to brush your gums as well as your teeth, in order to get out any irritating food par- ticles that may collect between teeth and gums. Proper nutrition is vital in pre- venting gum disease. So is cor- recting any conditions, such as improper bite or abnormal chew- ing habits, that may contribute to breaking down gum tissue. Scientists are doing their best to help us keep our teeth for all of our lives. Now it is up to each of us to bite into their sugges- tions for making certain that we'll never have to purchase our choppers from a dental lab's hoppers. Sports Outlook Dating Revolution (ACPI From the University of Miami comes news which may revolutionize the dating habits in America, says the Daily Rev- eille, Louisiana State University. Dental researchers there have discovered that tooth decay is a highly contagious disease rather than a hereditary defect. At first, this may seem insig- nificant. However, upon closer examination, who would know- ingly destroy his ivory smile or earn himself a premature set of false teeth simply because he had been kissing the wrong girl? Dr. Doran D, Zinner. one of the researchers, confirmed that tooth decay was caused by cer- tain types of mouth bacteria. The dentist-microbiologist as- serts that these bacteria are transmitted by direct contact, using case histories of rats, hamsters and humans to prove it. A person will now need to check a prospective date's den- tal history as well as other vital statistics. The question arises of how this may be done without arousing suspicion. Zinner announced that the best tooth decay protection comes from the use of fluorides. Here is a positive area for dis- crimination. Once a person knows where his date is from, he need merely check his pocket guide of fluoridated water sup- plies in the United States. If the local supply is fluoridated, then he can be sure by subtly plying her with water. Another method which might prove helpful calls for a bit of sleuthing. By staking out in the drugstore, one could take note of what kind of toothpaste she buys. Lewis Witherspoon Frank Ellis Tom Smile. Bryant iR.

If the question sounds strange, you may find it more surprising to learn that the answer prob- ably is: too often. At least that's the view of one expert, London resident William Knowles whose breathing exer- cises have helped 100,000 men and women learn to use their lungs properly in the past 30 years and have earned him the nickname of "Breather" Knowles. According to a February Read- er's Digest article. Knowles be- lieves that most of us should take far less than the 14 to 18 superficial breaths that we draw per minute. He himself takes only four. Fewer breaths mean deeper breaths, he says. One key to proper breathing is to exhale fully. Try this to test your own capacity. With your mouth open, exhale all you can. Now purse your lips and blow. Chances are there was lots of air left, indicating that you're al- lowing stagnant air to accumu- late in your lungs. To help increase your capacity for blowing out, try reading a paragraph aloud each day. No- tice how far you get the first day, then gradually increase the number of lines you can read without inhaling. Another exer- cise is to breathe in to the count of four and out to the count of 12, increasing the count gradu- ally until you can inhale to seven and exhale to 21. According to Knowles proper breathing will help you feel bet- ter, have more energy, suffer less from fatigue, sleep better and wake up faster. Breathing well can also provide greater strength for strenuous tasks, a fact well known to athletes. Their "sec- ond wind," for example, is really only the shift from shallow to deep breathing. You may think that breathing is a "natural" act, similar to your heartbeat. But there is this essential difference. You cannot control your heartbeat. You can control your breathing. Exerting such control can help you to bet- ter health and better living.

Joiner, Jr. As Editor-in-Chief of the Tiger's Roar, I have been asked several questions about the year- book for the past four months. It is true that the yearbook and newspaper editors work hand in hand, however, there were several questions directed to me which I could not answer. To answer student's questions re- garding the 1966 Tiger, I inter- viewed Otha L. Douglass, Jr., Editor-in-Chief of the Tiger: q When will the 1966 Tiger be distributed? A We expect to distribute the yearbook on May 26, 1966. Q What mark of distinction will the yearbook have to dis- tinguish it from past yearbooks? A After analyzing SSC's past yearbooks. I feel that the 1966 Tiger will have more organiza- tion, because the theme is ear- ned out much better. Q What do you mean by theme? A The theme, in this case, can be associated with parallel- ism. That is every yearbook has or should have a kind of topic sentence. This topic sentence may be in the form of words, pictures or abstract. The theme is usually found in the beginning or even on the cover and is car- ried through the entire book. In our case, we put more emphasis on progress, therefore progress is our theme. Q Will the yearbook include any new sections? A The 1966 Tiger will include two new sections. They are the academic section and the student life section. Q_What about the contents of the two new sections, is there more emphasis on the faculty and student body? A For the most part, there is. The academic section will con- sist of more copy than it has had in previous years and a better description of each department is given. While the student life section, although there's very little copy in places, the entire section emphasizes students. These two additional sections will add more light to the pages I Continued on Page 7) JANET MOORE Blood Donor Support The Blood Bank "I AM MY BROTHER'S KEEPER." These biblical words express eloquently the concept of human brotherhood and care. If you believe in this concept, then there is no better tangible evidence than the donating of your blood to help to save the life of another. On April 13. 1966, the second phase of the Savannah State College Blood Bank Program will be sponsored by the Committee on College Health Services in co-operation with the American Red Cross. The first phase of the Blood Bank Program of this school year, which was held on December 1. 1965, resulted in the donation by the College family of 126 pints of life-giving blood. We wish at this time to thank those donors, and to urge them to give again. We especially in- vite those who were unable to respond to the first call to donate on April 13, 1966. The high purpose and noble commit- ment symbolized in such a gift to humanity reminds us once again of the total involvement of all mankind. I sincerely urge and encourage each member of the Savannah State College family to make a donation, on April 13, 1966. of one pint of blood to the Blood Bank, and help to make the record of Savannah State Col- lege the best in the history of the Blood Bank Program. Yours very truly, Howard Jordan, Jr., President 5 NAACP Members Attend Convention By Marva Deloach Five delegates, accompanied by Mr E. J. Josey. SSC's Librarian and advisor to the College Branch of the NAACP. attended the NAACP's 14th Annual Convocation, held at Mobile. Alabama on March 17-19. The delegates were Ithamus Studgeon, James Sapp, III. Henry Semmons, Carolyn Maxwell and Marva Deloach. Being the largest and most active chapter of Region V, SSC had the second largest delegation at the convention. On having the second largest delegation, Ithamus Studgeon accepted a certificate of recognition on be- half of the chapter. Workshop sessions included finding ways of attracting more members and raising more funds. "Equal Employment Opportuni- ties" and what local chapter could do to fight for freedom were two topics which were treated in the workshops. The most interesting work- shops were concerned with de- veloping a community action program for youth, the functions of the NAACP and politics. These interesting because many phases of the Economic Opportunity Program were brought out which were given little attention in former workshops. The next workshop began with a play presented by the youth council in Mobile. This play pointed out very elaborately the case of the past, the present and the future of the Negro in politics. The workshop on the "'NAACP In and Out" stressed the im- portance of attending the NAACP's National Convention. Mr. Jesse H. Turner, Vice Chair- man, National Board of Directors of the NAACP, stated that the convention was threefold in that it is an educational body, a political body and a policy making body. The youth night program was another highlight of the conven- tion. Mr. John Nettles, a seminary student from Atlanta, spoke on the topic "Keep on Pushing." He said in essence that the Negro's bid for freedom has just begun and that the Negro must not confine himself to "direct action protest," but must include "direct action progress." Among the distinguished per- sons attending were Mr. Jess Turner, member of the National Board; Mr. W. C. Palton, As- sociate Director of Voter Regis- tration; Dr. John W. Nixon, State Conference President of Ala- bama; Mr, Joe L. Tucker, and Mr. Charles Evers, field direc- tors; and Mrs. Ruby Hurlly, Regional Director, Above are members of the Biology Club who visited Silver Springs, the Jacksonville Zoo, and St. Augustine Historical Park. The Biology Club, organized earlier in the vear, has seminars on biological topics and takes educational tours. The next trips will be to Atlanta and South Carolina. Mr. Woodhouse, biology instructor, is the advisor and Robert Brown, chemistry major, is the business manager. SENIOR CALENDAR Dates for coming senior class activities: Senior Vesper .

Day. was named "Man of the Year" last Thursday by Savannah State College's male students at the all-college assembly climaxing the college's celebration of Its 19th Annual Men's Festival. Day, who is a senior mathematics major and an honor student of Savannah, won the coveted award over five other candidates. It is believed that Day was selected for the annual award by the male students of SSC for his exemplification of the annual celebration aims. The first Men's Festival was held at Savannah State College on April 24, 1948. Since that time this program has shown tre- mendous growth in both the quality and scope of its activities, and is now regarded as one of the outstanding events held annually at the College. Speeches for this annual were made by two college presidents who have excelled in the fields of scholarship, law, education, administration, fraternal and civic affairs. Leading the parade of presidents was Dr. John Foster Potts, President. Voorhees Junior College, Denmark, South Carolina, who spoke in observ- ance of Inspiration Hay on Sun- day, April 3, at 6:00 p.m., In Meldrim Auditorium. Also ap- pearing on this program was the nationally famous SSC Men's Glee Club, under the direction of Mr. James Thompson, Jr. This Three Students Attend Conference At Columbia Three SSC students recently attended the 42nd Annual Co- lumbia Scholastic Association Press Conference at Columbia University in New York on March 10-12. The students, cited for serv- ices rendered In the area of public relations Included Robert Joiner, editor of The Tiger's Roar, Otha Douglas, editor of the Tiger and Clemontine Freeman, associate editor of the Tiger's Roar. The group participated in several workshops and seminars of public relations. Wilton C. Scott, Director of Public Relations, who served as advisor for the group, was honored at a dinner for National Council for School Press and Advisors Association at the Americana Hotel in New York. At the dinner Scott was elected executive member for the Federation of School Press Di- rectors USA. Scott conducted two sectional meetings at the convention on "How to Uncover News" and "Writing and Editing News." At the convention publications from Savannah State College won three first place and two second place awards. The first place awards went to the Tiger's Roar, the college newspaper; the SSC Alumni Newsletter and the College Bulletin. Savannah State was the only college winning three first places. The two second place awards were for the Pacemaker, official publication for the Press Insti- tute and for the SSC journalism workshop for inexperienced teachers and advisors. was the Men's Glee Club's first appearance on campus since re- turning from their highly suc- cessful northeastern Spring Tour. President Thomas Miller Jenkins, Albany State College, Albany, Georgia, spoke at the All-College Assembly for stu- dents and faculty on Thursday, April 7, at 10:20 a.m., in Wiley Gymnasium, which is celebrated annually as Education Day. Musical selections again were rendered by the SSC Men's Glee Club. Also presented at this hour was the coveted plaque designat- ing as "Man of the Year" the student whose achievements and contributions to the school and community have been most significant. This year's plaque was donated through the courtesy of the Royal Crown Cola Company, Columbus, Georgia, and the Royal Crown Bottling Company, Savannah, Georgia. The winner of this award Is selected by a rating system which allows each person cast- ing a ballot to evaluate the candidate on the basis of such criteria as scholarship, effective leadership, character, and citizenship. This recognition is one of the major highlights of this annual celebration. A special added attraction to the annual activities for this year was the presentation of the talented Miss Georgia Davis, one of the Country's finest young contraltos, in concert on Mon- day, April 4, at 8:15 p.m., in Meldrim Auditorium. The aims of the Men's Festival are to promote finer manhood, help prepare men to shoulder the heavy responsibilities of a democratic society through par- ticipation in worthwhile activi- ties, and to help prepare men for leadership responsibilities throughout the world. Officers for this nineteenth annual observance were: Presi- dent Howard Jordan. Jr., serv- ing as Honorary Chairman; Willie C.

Needed: An Acceptable Outlet For Aggression Prospect for the future; a young man applies to the college of his choice, is accepted and told he can start classes just as soon as he's completed a six- months "term" working on cam- pus as a bricklayer or carpenter. The possibility is raised in a March Reader's Digest article by John Fischer, editor of Harper's. Fischer argues that to stem the growing tide of anti-social vio- lence, society must provide ac- ceptable outlets for tlie aggres- sive Instincts so deeply imbedded In our genes. " 'Be a fighter' has always been our first law of survival," Fischer asserts. "Warfare was for centuries the main social en- terprise, absorbing virtually all the community's surplus time, energy and resources. Belliger- ence was celebrated as a prime civic virtue, and the Great Fighter was ensiirined as the universal hero." But with the industrialization of war about a century ago fighting became less acceptable as an outlet for aggression, At about the same time the rise of the city eliminated another tra- ditional testing ground for mas- culine prowess: the struggle against nature. What's left, says Fischer, are "surrogates for violence." Most fashionable are strenuous and risky sports skiing, skin diving, mountain climbing and others. All too often, though, the search for substitutes turns to unheal- thy channels: gang fights, steal- ing cars, vandalism and rioting. The antidote lies in finding a modern version of William James' "moral equivalent for war," Fischer writes. James' idea was to have every youth spend a few years at hard and danger- ous labor. The Peace Corps is our most successful experiment in this direction, says the au- thor; the Job Corps and other domestic anti-poverty programs also help. But more projects are needed to make use of "the youthful need for struggle and self-sacrifice." One idea might be to have ev- ery able-bodied student spend six months laboring to help con- struct thousands of new college buildings that we'll need for the future. Enlisting state Youth Corps workers in the fight to clean up our polluted rivers is another suggestion. The problems are with us; so is the manpower to cope with them. Says Fischer: "if we can discover a few hundred such projects, they might add up to a pretty fair Moral Equivalent." Scholarships Available For Foreign Studies The Institute of International Education announces that a lim- ited number of scholarships for 1966 summer study are being of- fered to qualified Americans by two Austrian and four British universities. All programs are administered by the HE The historic University of Vi- enna will hold a special summer session at its St. Wolfgang cam- pus in Strobl, Austria, from July 17 to August 27. Courses avail- able to students will include law, political science and ilberal arts courses and German language courses. The St Wniigang pro- gram is open to candidates who have completed two or more years of college and will cost approximately $340. which in- cludes a $20 registration fee. An optional four-day trip to Vienna at a small additional charge is also available. The aim of the Salzburg sum- mer school at Salzburg -Kless- heim. sponsored by th* Austro- American Society, is to provide students with an opportunity to learn the German language and to acquire a first-hand knowl- edge of Austrian culture and foreign policy. Although most courses (in art, music, poetry, economics and politic- 1 will be taught in English, atttndai.ee at one of several German language courses will be mandatory. Total cost for the Sr.lzburg program will be $315; $295 to cover room, board and tuition, plus a $20 registration fee Ap- plicants for the i- (from July 3 to August 14J must be between the ages of 18 L:nd 40 and must have completed at least one year of college High-point cf the two Aus- trian summer sessions will be the opportunity fcr students to attend the famed Salzourg Mu- sic Festival. Tickets to an opera and a play are included in the schools' fees. Summer school opportunities in Great Britain include a choice of subjects and historical peri- ods, with study to be carried out at the appropriate university concerned. The study of Shake- speare and Elizabethan drama will be offered at Stratford- upon-Avon by the University of Birmingham; the history, liter- ature and arts of England from 1870 to the present will be taught at the University of Ox- ford; Victorian literature at the University of London; and Brit- ish history, philosophy and liter- ature from 1688 to 1832 at the Lost Freedom (ACP) For all practical pur- poses, the members of the U. S. population under 21 have lost their freedom, says the Colorado State College Mirror, Greeley. The Mirror defines freedom as Salado De Madariage defined it: "He is free who knows how to keep in his own hands the power to decide at each step, the course of his life and who lives in a society which does not block the exercise of that power." Are the U S. government and the mass media, inspired by the chauvinistic tensions of the American people, sacrificing the freedom of a huge portion of the younger generation? We think so. Last year the Berkeley protes- tors (Free Speech Movement) were given fines and sentences for exercising civil disobedience. The peace march on Washing- ton in December, made up most- ly of students, was labeled by the mass media, carte blanche, as "fringe radicals" and "pinkos," The burning of draft cards, a symbolic gesture of disagree- ment with the administration's policy in Viet Nam, can now be punished by five years in prison and a $10,000 fine. The teach-in movement was effectively stifled by government charges of communist infiltra- tion and manipulation. A young Texas airman was sentenced to two years at hard labor by a military tribunal for participating in a peace march, even though he was off duty and in civilian clothes. Reader's Digest. Look and Life magazines have efficiently as- sured the American patriot that the whole Viet Nam protest movement is controlled by Com- munist agents. The whole American ideal confirmed the right of the indi- vidual to speak his mind and pursue his own reality, as long as he was not threatening some- one else's right to do the same. What has happened to the ideal? We are free as long as we keep our mouths shut, stay in step and join a few clubs. Lack of Funds No Longer Barrier If You Want To Attend College University of Edinburgh in Scot- land. The Universities of Birming- ham, Oxford, and Edinburgh will hold their sessions from July 4 to August 12; the University of London, from July 11 to August 19 Pees, which include room, board and tuition, will be $296. Courses for all four university summer sessions are designed for graduate students, but un- dergraduates who will have completed their junior year by the time the summer school opens may apply. Further information and ap- plications for these Austrian and British summer sessions may be obtained from the Coun- seling Division, Institute of In- ternational Education, 809 United Nations Plaza. New York, N. Y. 10017. Completed scholar- ship applications to the British schools must be received at the Institute by March 1; applica- tions for admission by March 31, 1966. Austrian scholarship ap- plications must be received by March 1; admission applications by May 1. 1966. Travel arrange- ments to and from Europe are the responsibility of each stu- dent. SUPPORT YOUR BLOOD BANK "A society that needs disci- plined brains is finding ways for millions to go to college on noth- ing a year." So says Reader's Digest roving editor Lester Velie, in an article In the magazine's February is- sue. Velie writes that a burgeon- ing number of public and pri- vate financial assistance pro- grams virtually guarantee that any qualified student can go to college- Illustrating the scope of the financial boosts available are the 60-year-old Cooperative Ed- ucation and the year-old federal work-study programs. Under the Co-op plan, college and industry cooperate in lining up part-time or temporary jobs for students. The student earns the prevailing wage for the job he holds, goes to school when he's not working. In addition to earning the funds needed to stay in school, he picks up valu- able work experience that can help him land a better job once he graduates. An interesting variation on the plan is being used by Bos- ton's Northeastern University. The school assigns two students to a given job. As one works. the other studies. At the end of each semester, they change places. There are now 88 schools em- ploying the Co-op plan, and the number is growing rapidly. Newer but equally effective is the year-old federal work-study program. This plan is available to those whose family income is in the $3000 to $6000 range, Un- der the plan students follow the traditional pattern of working their way through college by taking odd jobs but with a dif- ference. In the past such jobs waiting on table and the like- usually paid far less than the going rate for similar work. The new plan provides a minimum wage that's usually at least $1.25 an hour. Federal tax funds pro- vide up to nine tenths of the wage; the college supplies the rest. Along with these programs, fi- nancially-pressed students can qualify for long-term low-cost student loans which are repay- able only after graduation. Moreover, scholarship opportu- nities are growing, with over $130 million in college scholar- ships distributed each year by colleges and corporations, labor unions, veterans' groups and benevolent societies. So whether you're in college now or contemplating future enrollment, the heartening news is that financial need alone no longer need disqualify you from enjoying the best education you are capable of absorbing. Peace Corps Announces Eleven Training Courses For College Juniors May 20 is the deadline to en- roll in 11 Peace Corps training courses for college juniors to be held this summer at U. S. uni- versities, the Peace Corps an- nounced in Washington, D. C. Peace Corps officials advised that students enroll immediately because of the time required to process the applications. "The sooner the better," they said The courses 10 starting in June and the other in July are designed to enable future Volun- teers to integrate Peace Corps training with their senior year of college. Each course runs 10 weeks. Juniors qualified to enter the Advance Training Program will be prepared for assignments in 14 countries. The assignments cover community and agricul- tural development, secondary education and teaching English in French-speaking West Africa, In their final year of college, the trainees' courses of study may be tailored to fit their Peace Corps training. The ATP en- rollees will complete their train- ing in special field programs the summer of 1967. A Peace Corps loan fund for ATP enrollees helps cover the loss of income trainees might have otherwise earned from summer employment. Trainees may borrow up to $600 at low in- terest rates to pay expenses dur- ing their final year in school. ATP was begun in 1964 as a solution to the increasing diffi- culty in preparing Volunteers for certain assignments. Some Volunteers, for example, must learn two languages to handle their work effectively. ATP gives the Peace Corps 15 months to prepare the Volunteer instead of the normal three. Courses to be held this sum- mer: 1 1 Bolivia Community Develop- ment. Studies include community development theory and practice, Spanish, Bolivian national and sub-cultural studies.

Dr. Williams organized Savan- nah State College's Alpha Nu Chapter of Alpha Kappa Mu Today's Youth Represents ''Movement" In Education i ACPi The dean of admis- sions at the University of Cin- cinnati concluded that "today's millions of American college stu- dents represent the most mass- ive movement in the history of higher education" in his annual survey of college enrollments re- cently. Dr. Garland G. Parker re- ported 3,292,539 full-time stu- dents and a grand total of 4,586.057 attending the 1,095 ac- credited universities, senior col- leges and four-year colleges re- porting to him, according to the News Record. This represents an increase of 12.7 per cent in full-time stu- dents and 10 per cent in grand Guaranteed Jobs Abroad For Students At the end of last term, six hundred intrepid students and teachers (ranging in age from 18 to 40) hopped from class- rooms to Europe in practically one leap. None of them was particularly wealthy and none was on a special grant or scholarship. Yet each was able to afford a fabulous, meaningful, cultural summer abroad. The six hundred peripatetics were par- ticipants in the JOBS ABROAD program originated by the Inter- national Student Information Service (ISIS), a non-profit organization headquartered in Brussels, Belgium. ISIS and its American affiliate, the International Student Travel IISTC), are organizations de- voted to providing jobs abroad to students and teachers who are sincerely interested in expand- ing their horizons by living and working abroad. The ISIS/ISTC JOBS ABROAD program was established in 1961. Many stu- dents who participated that first year have repeated their educa- tional experience in the ensuing years. Most of the jobs are for un- skilled workers in construction, on farms, in factories, hospitals, hotels and restaurants, as mother's helpers and camp counsellors. Salaries range from $50 a month (including room and board) to $200 a month. Average pay is $100 a month and al- though low by American wage standards, it is usually more than enough to pay living ex- penses while in Europe. The salaries are the same as those paid to local employees doing the same job. Working in Europe gives a participant all the cultural benefits available to a tourist. But the participant acquires knowledge while he is earning . . . not spending. The student- worker has the unique advantage of getting a sharp, clear picture of a country and its culture for he sees its through the eyes of its people. The tourist generally gets a hazy and somewhat dis- torted picture, for he sees it (Continued on Page 7) Permanent Press Is Boon To Housewives totals over the 1964 figures. Parker's study was carried by the educational journal, "School and Society," as its 46th annual collegiate enrollment report, Records were set in all but one category. The number of part- time students In urban universi- ties dropped slightly. Last fall's increase in full-time students will mean "significant- ly larger numbers in the junior and senior levels in the next two years," Parker predicted, "Even larger entering classes will suc- ceed them and be augmented by greatly increased numbers of transfers from the junior and community colleges," he added. The number of freshmen rose 17.3 per cent in both 1964 and 1965 even though the increase in the numbers of 18-year-olds was only 10 to 12 per cent over 1964. Parker cited the following factors as significant in this in- crease. Try this riddle: what item of common use is baked m an oven, saves much effort and is becom- ing increasingly popular with American consumers? No, we are not thinking of food. The answer, according to information in a February Read- er's Digest article, is clothing: specifically the new "permanent press" clothing that has swept into prominence in recent months. Says the article, by Don Wharton: "Two years ago there wasn't even the name 'perma- nent press.' Today the term is dominant in men's casual and work pants, has spread into men's dress and sports shirts, women's and children's gar- ments, bedsheets, jackets, pa- jamas, raincoats." Permanent press (or durable press, as it's sometimes known) got its start about a dozen years ago when a small San Francisco sportswear manufacturer, Koret of California, set out to make women's skirts with lasting pleats. They made a skirt from Honorary Society in January of 1952. The chapter which was organized with 19 charter mem- bers, has since initiated almost 50 members. In addition to Dr. Williams being elected national president, the following persons were also elected to national offices in the honors society : Kirby Kirksey of Texas Southern University In Houston, as vice president; George W. Gore, Jr., of Florida A & M University In Tallahassee, as secretary-treasurer; Patricia Newton of Arkansas A M & N College In Pine Bluff, as assist- ant secretary; Lucy Rose Adams of Florida A & M University, as convention secretary; George E. Leader of Arkansas A M & N College, as historian; John W. Riley of Florida A & M Univer- sity, as director of. publicity; Wilbur D. Van Buren of South- ern University, as sevgeant-at- arms; Mary Patterson of Knox- villc College, as convention re- porter; and Raymond Slaughter of Kentucky State College, as chaplain. SENIORS, GRADUATE RECORD EXAMINATION SCHEDULED FOR APRIL 23 Mr. Bradford Torain, a senior student majoring in Electronics Technology, has been offered a GS17 position in Telecommuni- cations at the Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Mary- land, effective June 13, 1966. cotton fabric, impregnated it with a mixture of special resins and baked it in an oven. The chemical reaction caused the skirt to retain its pleats and re- sist wrinkle formation. Koret's limited resources did- n't permit full-scale research into the process, so the company patented the process under the name Koratron, then teamed up with a South Carolina fabric- producing firm, the Graniteville Co., and with Levi Strauss, the famed manufacturer of Levi's. The three companies worked for more than a year and spent well over a million dollars to perfect the process. The result: in Feb- ruary 1964 the first mass-pro- duced, permanent-press gar- ments began appearing in retail stores. Today business is booming. All 17 major U. S. fabric produc- ers are involved in permanent press, and by last fall 190 gar- ment manufacturers had been licensed to use Koratron. It is estimated that nearly half of all men's and boys' slacks sold this year will be permanent press, as will more than one fourth of all dress and sports shirts. The new process is not with- out problems, notes the Digest article. Permanent press fabrics lack absorption qualities, thus may not be ideal for work clothes if the job is a sweaty one. Permanent press can decrease wearing qualities, although the lack of ironing needed can com- pensate. And permanent press items should be tumble-dried or hung up dripping wet for best results, rather than dried in the spin cycle of standard washer- driers. So. the Digest advises, don't give up your iron yet. But do shop carefully for the growing number of permanent press items, that represent perhaps the greatest boon to the house- wife since ready-mix cakes. Georgia Davis Metropolitan Opera Contralto Sings To Large Audience Savannah State College pre- sented Georgia Davis, one of the country's finest young contraltos, in concert, Monday, April 4, 1966. Miss Davis, who has performed with the Detroit Symphony Orchestra in Brahms Alto Rhap- sody, was selected to represent the U. S. in an Artist Exchange with Yugoslavia. Appearances there and in Italy merited in- vitations to return for tours the following season. The young contralto began her career as a soloist with the famed Hall Johnson Choir and with the National Chorus of America under Hugh Ross. After attending Wayne State, Miss Davis received her musical training at the Detroit Conser- vatory of Music, the Detroit In- stitute of Musical Art and in the opera department of Mannes College of Music in New York. Page 4 THE TIGEH'S HOAR JOB OPENINGS WITH CITY OF SAVANNAH April, 1966 THEATRE TAKES OFF- "J. B." and the Actors By Brandan Galloway, Savannah Morning News Critic Something wonderful hap- pened last week at Savannah State College. Theatre happened, as the "Players by the Sea," a cast and crew of enthusiastic, variously talented students, guileci (and no doubt often goaded i by a dedicated director, put across Archibald McLeish's play. "J, B," Theatre, as such, does not always happen, not even on or "off" Broadway; as a matter of fact, theatre seems to be more honestly flourishing on campus and in communities across the land. This has never seemed truer to this reviewer than on Wednesday night, watching Robert L. Stevenson, the director, and his dynamic cast, meet head-on the challenge of a complex, difficult play, with electrifying results. To say the production was perfect In every respect would be fatuous and insulting, as wholesale flattery always Is. There were flaws. There were, for example, moments when de- livery and diction could have been improved. There were oc- casional faults in blocking, which, at one point, resulted in some of the players screening the central character from the view of the audience sitting on the right hand side of the hall. There was even a moment, dreaded by actors and directors, everywhere, when the audience fell apart laughing during an intensely serious scene. This was not to the discredit of the cast; it was simply something that occurs inexplicably in an audi- ence, which laughs perhaps to avoid the embarrassment of honest emotion. Who knows? It is not these minor flaws and mishaps that matter, however. The great thing is that they were triumphantly surmounted, and that from the stage came a charge of excitement, of vigor, of feeling and of life. The spec- tator himself became tremend- ously involved in what was going forward on the raked platform, and what "J. B.s" decision was finally going to be, was of terrible importance. Chief among those who gener- ated all this excitement from nearly bare stage, in McLeish's 20th century version of the Story of Job, were Charles Savage in the title role, Kathleen Jamer- son as Sarah, his wife, Jack Handy as Zuss, or "God," and Craig Ford as a furious and vital ASK THE SMOKERS By Walker Durham Since the United States De- partment of Health required that all cigarette packages contain a note of caution.

Addic Scott It has not af- fected me too much because my smoking habit is very limited. Nab The mere fact that the hazards of cigarettes was for- mally announced not long ago didn't seem to me to be such a miraculous finding, so as to alter my smoking habits, since I and many others perhaps knew that cigarette smoking was a possible health hazard. Bernicc Proctor It has not affected me at all, I still smoke as much as I did before. Carolyn Lewis It has affected me a great deal in that I have given up the habit of smoking. Leonard Jones It has affected me to the extent that I have begun to consider the possibility of giving up smoking. However, I will continue to smoke until I can gradually break the habit. Delores Solamon The caution note has not affected me mainly because I don't make smoking a habit, although I am aware of the consequences, I feel that I can stop whenever I wish. Dorothy Thompson To be honest, I picked up the habit of smoking after reading the caution note. But because of the note, I say to myself, "This is the last one." Alfred Mullice It has not affected my smoking habit very much because I try to limit my- self to the number of cigarettes I smoke per day. incarnation of Satan, of, in this play, "Nickles." Savage, tall and personable, gave a moving and heroically sustained performance. His transition of the well-heeled tycoon, materially and spiritually amply nourished and com- placent, to the destitute, unlived and physically tortured wreck. despairing yet steadfast in his faith, was worthy of a seasoned actor. Miss Jamerson gave beauty and dignity to the role of J. B.'s long-suffering wife. Not that this part should not have such qualities, but long- suffering wives can be rather a trial, in plays as in "real" life, and Miss Jamerson gave Sarah definite character, validity, a justification, so to speak. Equally difficult are the parts of Zuss and Nickles, God and the Devil waging their eternal con- flict, over the hapless J. B. Zuss was given a majestically in- terpreted characterization by Jack Handy, never at a loss against Nickles' sophistries. Craig Ford was a lithe, strenuous, and an utterly satisfying furious Satan. The parts of Bildad, Zophar, and Ellphaz, Job's comforters were very well performed by Arthur Curtwright, Eloise Glover, and Lonnie Crawford, certainly to the extent that they were instantly unlikeable as they brought to poor J. B. their nega- tive solace. The asides of the old women huddled in the shelter of the wall, during this scene, were well done, and provided the only light touches in the drama.

SSCs Graduate R<'Iives IVace Corps Experiences It may sound strange, but Private Willie M. Wilkerson of Company D, First Battalion. First Engineer Training Brigade, is as much at home sighting his rifle on an elephant as a man- shaped target. Participating in an elephant hunt was just one of the many interesting experi- ences the Naylor, Ga., soldier en- joyed while serving with the Peace Corps in West Africa. Wilkerson, a 24-year-old grad- uate of Savannah State College in Savannah, Ga., served as a construction engineer in West Cameroon before being inducted into the Army last November. As a Peace Corpsman he taught building construction, architec- tural drawing and surveying to the people of the West African nation. "It was very gratifying to be able to help the people help themselves," he said. "They were excellent students; eager to learn. All of our projects were successful." Wilkerson is now utilizing his engineering talents in training as a basic combat engineer. Dur- ing eight weeks of intensive training at Fort Leonard Wood, combat engineer trainees are taught various construction methods, use of demolitions, weapons qualification and re- lated subjects. The Georgia soldier volun- teered for the Peace Corps in July 1963 and after three months of special schooling at Ohio Uni- versity was sent to West Cameroon. His travels didn't end there, however, and during the ensuing months he visited Egypt, Ghana, Nigeria, Ivory Coast, Togo. Liberia and other African nations. Aside from the elephant hunt, which stands as the high spot of his African adventures. Wilk- erson recalls a host of interest- ing experiences : "Once we climbed Mt. Cameroon, a 13,370- foot peak near the coast," he remarked. "In just 16 hours we moved from 90-degree jungle weather to a snowstorm more than two miles above the valley floor." The former Peace Corpsman hopes to return to West Africa someday to continue teaching. Private Wilkerson is the son of Mr. and Mrs, Mayo Wilkerson, P. O. Box 31, Naylor. Ga., and Is a 1959 graduate of Pinevale High School in Valdosta, Ga. Fashion for Men A thing of beauty never dies, the same can be said about fashion because some of the styles of yesterday are returning to most men attires. The double breasted suit, wide rim hat, old fashion tie styles and a host of other things in the line of at- tractive clothes are a few. In a late edition of Esquire Maga/ine it was predicted that the wide tie had returned. Last seen in the late Forties, the broad-model tie made a hasty exit with the advent of narrow shoulders and overall slim styl- ing. Thinner ties (two inches wider, opposed to the old three- and-a-half or wider) were more in keeping with the new lines: narrow-brimmed hats, straight- hanging jackets, etc. But lately the trend has been to break up the straight lines with angles The new shaped suit has wider shoulders, suppression at the waist and flair at the shirt. Hat brims are more pronounced. A resounding reintroduction of the wide tie was made in London's West End with the polka-dot, a king-size five inches at its widest point. Perhaps a four- incher tie would serve you just as well, but it is clear that with the shop of men's clothes today, only the wide tie is fit to be tied. For casual wear almost any- thing goes, the wash-and-wear khakis, white jeans and on cool days corduroy jeans are often worn on the college and univer- sity campus. Shoes are very informal these days, mostly everyone is wear- ing wing type loafers, sneakers, suede hush puppies, and clark suede boots. If you are a college student it is hard to go wrong in your dressing attires, just keep the colors right. The colors jar this season if blue-green combination, anyway you like it.

CLUB & CAMPUS FASHIONS By CHIP TOLBERT ESQUIRE'S FASHION EDITOR EASTER-TIME! The very word begins to echo through the quadrangle like an ignited stick of dynamite. Whatever other con- notations it may hold for you, Easter Vacation always comes as a last-minute antidote through which you escape just in the nick of time your impending nineteenth nervous breakdown and the breakneck pace of academic life. So, on your mark, get set, GO! Chances are you'll be going South where the Spring grass is green and the tropic sunshine good and hot. Time, that is, for tips on what to take along... NASSAU, ANYONE? NodoubtT.S.Eliotwasn't thinking of the Caribbean when he labeled April the cruelest month not by a long shot. There's Bermuda, sitting like "an emerald in a sapphire sea;" there's Ft. Lauderdale, where the girls are and where the hoys follow after. On the West Coast, there's La Jolla, or for the way out swingers, Newport Beach. And if you really want to get away from it all, there's Mexico City. But whether you find your pipe-dream under a volcano or under a swaying palm, remember to play it safe. Take along at least one dark suit, a lightweight polyester and wool or a cotton blend. You never know when you might be invited up to the Gov- ernor's mansion for drinks on the patio. FOR THAT SMART, young millionaire look, you couldn't do better than select your dress-up resort wear in Navy blue. Dark gray's okay, and olive will do. but royal Navy has a rich, crisp look college men like. And. incidentally, there's no time like the present to look for a Permanent Press suit. It'll keep the wrinkles out as Summer comes sailing in. WEAR WITH IT, a white or pale tone button down shirt. It may be striped (and here the color scheme of things is getting bolder and brighter every day i . or a solid color. Best bets : pale blue, pale lemon, pink, or a creamy tan shade. The new Permanent Press dress shirts are great for travel for obvious reasons: you wash them out at night, and the next morning, without ironing (or puckered seams) they're back in perfect shape. Take along a couple of ties; a bright, bold paisley, a repp stripe, and make sure they sport the new, fashion-right, wider widths. - liiiHFt MAKE THE CASUAL SCENE m a Mad or polyester/ cotton seersucker sport jacket. Here, your color and pattern choice may be as wild as your taste permits. You'll need a pair of dark, medium, or light gray dress slacks, and your choice should depend on coordination with the jacket. Jeans or chinos, three or four pairs, low- rise, hip-hugging, and tapered in faded blue or a wheat color, are mandatory. Make sure they have built-in wash-and-wear capabilities. Ditto with your sport shirts. Select three or four in the popular Henley style in lightweight woven fabrics, and a couple of cotton/polyester knits. ON THE BEACH let your imagination drift around the sand castles. But before yon make the beach scene, be sure you're equipped with several new swim shorts. Big. splashy Hawaiian surfer trunks (usually available with matching shirts), and the new Basketball swim short styles will be among the most popular this season. Most young men prefer them in trim, athletic, form-fitting models, and the word for surfing '6G is COLOR. Bright, burning reds, vivid yel- lows, flashy greens, and wild prints are the top contenders. THE TWILIGHT CHILL calls for a couple of colorful sweatshirts, and a bulky, loose-knit "Poor Boy" sweater. Sneakers and sandals are a must, of course, but even more imperative are shades and a good suntan lotion. Slip a pair of black loafers into your suitcase, zip it up, check out your reservations, and be off! NEXT MONTH, We'll survey Spring and Summer fashions in depth. Meanwhile, give our regards to the gang, and make every moment count. Smooth sailing... CopyiiBht, 19CC. ESQUIRE, Inc. April, 1966 THE TIGERS ROAR Search For Nations "Most Outstanding" College Girl Is Underway One of our students, here on this campus, could be the next National College Queen. The annual search is now underway to select and to honor "the nation's most outstanding college girl." Young women at- tending this school are eligible as candidates. A special invita- tion has been extended to our students. The winner will re- ceive more than $5,000 in prizes, including a trip to Europe and an automobile. The 1966 National College Queen Pageant will be held in June, and this year Pageant officials will again award 50 free trips to New York City. One col- lege girl from every State, in- cluding Alaska and Hawaii, will be flown to Manhattan to com- pete for high honors. This Pageant is the annual event which gives recognition to students for their scholastic ability. It is not a "beauty con- test." Judging is based on academic accomplishment as well as attractiveness, charm and personality. The judges are seeking a typical American col- lege girl. For eleven years the National College Queen Contest has been growing, until it has become a tradition at hundreds of colleges and universities. This year, one of our students can win and bring nationwide recognition to our school. The National Finals will be held from June 10 through June 20. The event is a highlight of the "New York Is A Summer Festival" celebration, which is sponsored by the New York Convention and Visitors Bu.-eau. For full details and a free Entry Blank just write to: Na- tional College Queen Contest Committee. 1501 Broadway, New York City, N. Y.. 10036.

Special theater parties are arranged, and after the performance they go backstage to meet the stars. In 1965, the title of National College Queen was earned by Miss Susan Terry Mallett. from Michigan State University. She has had an exciting year. For example, she was invited to ap- pear in "The Tournament of Roses Parade" on New Year's Day. She was featured on a float in that famous Parade, and was a guest at the Rose Bowl game. Miss Mallett has now returned to Michigan State University, and is a student in her sopho- more year. With all the intelligent and at- tractive college girls on this campus, why don't we nominate some candidates this year? Let's have one of our students go to the National Finals, and win top honors in 1966! It's easy to enter this contest. Nothing to buy. No slogans to write. The National College Queen Pageant is sponsored by several leading companies, as their annual salute to outstand- ing college students. They pre- sent more than $5,000 in prizes. For instance: The next National College Queen will win a new automobile. She will receive a trip to Europe a vacation tour of London, Paris and the Continent. In the field of fashions, she will be awarded a complete wardrobe of suits, dresses and sportswear. She can select $500 worth of her favorite styles. One of the National Sponsors of this Pageant is Best Foods, Division of Corn Products Com- pany makers of Hellmann's Mayonnaise, Skippy peanut butter, Mazola, Karo, etc. and they will award an interesting prize. They will present ten shares of Corn Products Com- pany stock to the next National College Queen times the prices in Savannah. Sales Tax Savannah. 3%; New York City, 5%.

Last, but not least, I know this from actual experience: Hernia Operation Savannah, $150.00; New York City, $350.00 to $500.00. My only criticism is that Isn't it about time that the Civil War was forgotten and why publicize it on every possible occasion in all Georgia news media? Several days ago, two Japanese students visited our fair city. They were wined and dined and a big fuss was made of them in all news media. If we can forget Pearl Harbor and the mutila- tion of American soldiers when captured by the Japanese so quickly, why harp on the Civil War of so many years ago? Let's forget it and try to re- member a house divided is a detriment in any shape or form. You never hear of the Battle of Bunker Hill, The Boston Tea Party, and The Ride of Paul Revere that the state of Massa- chusetts should be so very proud of. and maybe this is the reason it is such a strong industrial state. Recently. I listened to a speech by an official of "Lockheed. Georgia" which is the largest airplane manufacturing com- pany in the world at Marietta, Georgia. They are suffering from a shortage of engineers very badly and when he tries to bring them down here from the North, the reply is always the same, "We don't want to live in the South." They act as though they think all Southerners run around in their bare feet. I blame this on all Southern news media and the public rela- tions departments of Savannah and the state of Georgia for not telling America in no uncertain terms what a wonderful state Georgia is and the City of Sa- vannah is second to none in our beloved country. I have visited and spent time in very many of the large cities in our country and I know whereof I speak. So, Savannah, I love you, but please come out of your coma and do something about it.

Well, I know what you would ask me now. HOW? This can be done by learning how to live more and how to be different from others. Here are five suggestions: FIRST OF ALL. GET OUT OF THAT ONE TRACK MIND. A student who can talk only about his major field, rely upon his textbooks for everything and not do any thinking for himself, nor read a wide variety of books, only talk about sex unintelli- gently in the small group all these are examples of students who are in a personality rut. There are many persons who could be more useful and more interesting if they would allow themselves to try and appreciate others. As students you can develop other interests, This can be done by joining social organizations and clubs. For example, on the college campus there are frater- nities, sororities, and other clubs. Go to conceits, plays, lec- tures and take part in group dis- cussions whether in or out of a classroom. SECONDLY, BE INDIVIDUAL- ISTIC, BUT NOT SUPERIOR. At various social gatherings, the person who is stimulating is usu- ally different. This should not be done in the "show off man- ner" because it may irritate per- sons. Remember, our friends do not have any objections to "dif- ferentness" nearly so much as they have to the attitude of su- periority that so often goes with it. THIRDLY, ALWAYS BE PRE- PARED TO CONVERSE. As Longfellow said, "A single con- versation across the table with a wise man is better than ten years' study of books." Read the various magazines, the daily newspaper, up-to-date articles in the encyclopedias, so you will have something to talk about. Never discuss an esoteric subject or something you know only a bit of information about. Get a general knowledge on a lot of items so you will be able to dis- cuss them among others intelli- gently. The encyclopedia is one of the best sources for getting a general knowledge of a variety of items. FOURTHLY. MAKE OTHERS FEEL IMPORTANT DURING A CONVERSATION. Basically, this can be done by paying strict at- tention to what is being said. Remember the most important items that have been stated. Here you will be able to ask questions and propose new ideas. LASTLY. WHIN IN A COS- VERSATION BE NATURAL, CHEERFUL AND TRUTHFUL. When in a discussion never bring up your worries and other per- sonal problems. No one wants to hear them. No one will expect a complete recitation of your backache, headache, or stomach- ache. Develop a cheerful, positive approach to a conversation. One who never contributes anything to a conversation is usually bor- ing to the others. When speak- ing learn to control your voice, pronounce words effectively and be at ease. In any conversation, always be truthful, for if you tell the truth every time you will never have to remember what you said be- fore. SUPPORT YOUR STUDENT GOVERNMENT Camping: Past and Present By Clemontine Freeman When referring to camping one immediately thinks of living out-of-doors. Because man's existence de- pended upon his ability to se- cure his basic needs from nature he developed an appreciation for his surroundings. From nature he was able to secure food, clothing, shelter and protection from wild animals. History of our civilization tells how man was able to make use of the world in which he was living. America has always been known for its great campers. Before the white man arrived, the land was inhabited by the greatest of all campers, the American Indians. Because of an understanding of the out-of- doors, man is still making use of some of the ancient methods today. As cities grew and industrial- ization came about man lost in- terest in the out-of-doors, moved to the city, and looked for greater things. Even though man no longer depends upon nature for all of his needs he felt the urge to return to the out-of- doors. Since then camping has grown extensively. Each year millions of Americans enjoy their sum- mer by camping individually, in small groups, as a family or they attend organized camps. Our interest in camping has brought about the establishment of day and residential camps for American Youth. These camps give the youth a variety of ex- periences, such as hiking, boat- ing, firecraft, knotcraft, nature study and axmanship. The American Youth Hostels have played a great role in help- ing youth develop an interest in outdoor living and love of the world around them. In order to promote camping the American Camping Associ- ation has set up members in all From the Editor's Desk, Did you ever think of traveling abroad, but lack the money to finance the trip? If so, here is an opportunity to do so through the Jobs Abroad Program. This is a non-profit membership organization joined by a common purpose: to secure paying over- seas jobs for students and teachers during the summer, or any time of the year. According to Francis Gordon, publisher of the Jobs Abroad Magazine, this program was launched less than five years ago and has been moving at such a rapid pace that the only thing that could be done was to keep the operation moving smoothly and efficiently. During the next four years the program was expanded, because more European employers wanted to hire students. Who joined? According to Mr. Gordon, "people very much like you." Some students who are anxious to go abroad, but can't afford to travel as tourists. They need a paying job to cover their expenses while in Europe, Others were people who could easily afford to travel in Europe, but they were interested in something besides filling up a photo album. They wished to know people, not just places. "We try to place everyone according to his wishes. We can place you. too," Mr. Gordon states. Have you ever contemplated traveling abroad but lack the money to finance the trip? Try your luck with Jobs Abroad. This could be a wonderful experience.

By Johnny Davis Willie C. Smith: At this very moment American soldiers are dying in Viet Nam in order to preserve the rights of freedom of speech; freedom of religion; freedom of the press; and the right to select the lead- ers that all the people will favor. I sincerely believe that the United States' role in Viet Nam is a valid and meaningful one, for I am sure that even the greatest critics of the present administration would prefer to fight communism in Viet Nam rather than have to fight com- munism in their own com- munities. R. Antionette Battiste: The Viet Nam situation is pitiful. I can see no hope and no progress thus far. The United States has high hopes for some- thing that might happen in the next decade. Jacquelyn E. Mack: The happenings in Viet Nam are so sad and disheartening that I shudder to think of the senseless killings of our Ameri- can soldiers. I pray that it will soon be over, although I can see no immediate end to the war, Thomas Clark: I think the situation in Viet ASK A STUDENT Nam is terrible, however. I think we are there for a very im- portant purpose. I don't think the United States should move out. I think we should use our power to its capacity. What I mean by that is if it takes bombing Hanoi to end the war I thmk the United States should do it. The United States should send more troops if that's what it takes to help end the situation or war in Viet Nam. By Walker Durham Do you think that SSC should develop an honor system? This is the question that I asked some of our students. I inter- viewed others and wrote down their reactions to the above question. For those who do not know, an honor system is one in which students pledge to be hon- est while taking an exam or doing other class work even when the instructor is not pres- ent. "How could you think of such a question?" said one young lady I don't think she would make it under an honor system, One young lady said, "making a pledge to an honor system would be my last pledge." I take it she means if nothing else works. "I feel that the only honor system which should be allowed to de- velop in a college is one based on work done and personal achievement, closely supervised by instructors; this includes the area of testing," These were the words of an anonymous person. I don't know why he does not want his name mentioned; he speaks very well. Some students that I talked with said that an honor system would never work. However, it works in other schools. Whether it will work or not, I guess, depends on the kind of students you have. Look what Omonde Lewis said about it: "I think an honor sys- tem should come about gradu- ally here at SSC, A program such as this initiated 'overnight' would probably be disastrous to the honesty and integrity of the student body. They are, for the most part, unacquainted with the demands and qualities of such a system and would prob- ably utilize it for another ave- nue to 'get by.'

Qualified applicants are notified of selection for Officer Candi- date School before they enlist. OCS classes convene in September and February at the Coast Guard Reserve Training Center in historic Yorktown. Virginia. There the carefully selected college graduates re- ceive 17 weeks of intensive, highly specialized training. Upon graduation they are commis- sioned as ensigns in the Coast Guard Reserve and serve on active duty for three years. Those qualified may be offered flight training. Coast Guard officers receive the same pay and benefits as officers of other Armed Forces, Included are 30 days of annual leave and free medical and dental cave.

These were the master- ful words of Corine Capers. One student said that even if an honor system is established, there would be some students who would not stick to their pledge. How right he is! Some people are not honest even with a pledge. Bettye Small said, "I personally think that an honor system here at SSC should not even be questionable. However, if it is worked gradually into the school system it is possible that good results would be the out- come." I didn't know Bettye could say that much. "In my opinion, it would be an advan- tage to the students and the in- structors to establish an honor system at SSC. The students under an honor system could build their morals and gain a greater sense of adulthood. The instructors could then rely on the saying that 'honesty is the best policy'," James Scott is the composer of those words. The following statement is the one I like most. This young lady said, "Some instructors make it so hard to pass that an honor sys- tem is out of the question." Now that was well said. I have to agree.

"Miss Alpha Phi Omega" FRESHMAN DAY PROCLAIMED AT SAVANNAH STATE By Ina Rozlcr, Class Reporter "Freshman Day" was pro- claimed at Savannah State Col- lege at the morning Chapel Service on Sunday, April 24, when approximately 75 freshmen worshipped in a body. The Reverend Samuel Wil- liams spoke from the theme "Faith and Destiny." Reverend Williams contended that Dietrich Bonhoeffer. the German Theo- logian who provided stimulus for the present "God is Dead Move- ment" would be horrified by the use now made of paragraphs in his writings. Bonhoeffer wrote of the world that had "come of age" and said, "it is becoming evident that everything gets along without God, and just as well as before. As in the scien- tific field, so in human affairs generally, what we call 'God - is being more and more edged out of life, losing more and 'more ground'." All that he says needs to be understood in the light of such words as these: "The God who makes us live in this world without using Him as a working hypothesis is the God before whom we are ever standing. Be- fore God and with Him we live without God. God allows himself to be edged out of the world and onto the cross." According to J. C. Bennett, President of Union Theological Seminary, there is a baffling paradox here, but it would be false to Bonhoeffer to break the paradox and leave us with a suf- fering Jesus apart from the God of the world. Reverend Williams also gave three views of faith and how one's faith affects one's destiny. These three views of faith were: (1) uninformed. (2) informed, and (3i regenerate faith. He concluded by saying that what the world needs most today is a regenerate faith. Freshman Corner 1. During the Winter Quarter, 13 freshmen made the Dean's List. They are: Berley M.

Celebrates Career Day on April 13 By Jannie Singleton The Savannah State College Department of Chemistry cele- brated its annual "Chemistry Career Day" Wednesday, April 13. The activities began with registration of all participating junior and senior high school students and advisors. The theme of this year's pro- gram was "Chemistry Careers on Parade." The purpose of the annual event is to present to the students the varied opportuni- ties opened in the expanding field of chemistry in today's technological world. John E. Lang, a junior chem- istry major from Savannah, Georgia, was chairman of the event. In his message to the 135 registered students Lang stressed the belief that the mind has no limitations except those we acknowledge. And it is character- istic of the true chemist not to acknowledge limitations. For here in the Chemistry Depart- ment irrelevant and minor ex- cuses are not given nor accepted among the chemistry majors and staff members. It is not wished that everyone enter the profession of chem- istry for the field would then become overcrowded, but it is hoped that those who select this field fully realize all the re- warding and frustrating moments encountered in chem- istry. It is through never ending persistance that advancements and achievements are gained. A student entering this profes- sion must be inclined emotion- ally to face any downfalls and be academically prepared to overcome them. "For an edu- cated man knows how to acquire anything he wants, or its equiva- lent without trespassing on the rights of others," Lang stated.

Grant for Books Keyed to Reading By Charles Smalls Savannah State College has been authorized a grant of $1,- 852.50 by the Southern Associa- tion of Colleges and Schools to purchase a number of paper- back books. The grant, which is financed by the Fund for the Advance- ment of Education, an affiliate of the Ford Foundation of New York City, will enable SSC stu- dents to read paperback books on an honor system basis.

Acting in accordance with rules drawn up by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools for the selection and dis- tribution of the paperback books, a committee of two faculty mem- bers along with six students selected 559 titles in the humani- ties, sciences, and social sciences. Of the 559 titles selected by the committee. 1,092 multiple copies of certain titles of the 1,824 titles listed by the Educational Improvement Project will be made available to students. The eight member committee includes E. J. Josey, college li- brarian and associate professor; Mrs. Madeline H. Dixon, catalog librarian and assistant professor; Lillie M. Kyles, a senior English major; Marva DeLoach. a junior mathematics major; Mrs. Minnie T. Merrit, a senior English major; Charles Smalls, a senior language and literature major; Willie C. Smith, a senior biology major; and James P. Sapp, a senior social science major. According to a resolution by the 8-member committee, the books will not be processed as "library" books. They will be housed in the College Center and loaned out on an honor system basis; that is, the students will check the books in and out with- out supervision with the under- standing that a student must re- turn a borrowed book before he can check out another. The committee will be respon- sible for the replenishing the book rack with new titles and reporting the frequency of usage regarding the type of preferred book as well as giving some indication of reading preference according to sex. $1,000 Research Grants Awarded Six Cheni Majors By Juanita D.

(Continued on Page 3) THE TIGER'S ROAR May 31. 1966 Your Student Government Speaks As we experience the closing weeks of this academic year, there is seemingly a common tendency to look back over the months to glimpse alms, achieve- ments, efforts, failures, and de- velopments. While considering these fac- tors, the year appears to have been somewhat of a lengthy na- ture, particularly when we think back to times of hardships, af- fliction and tribulations; yet when we look and listen to those accomplishments made and spoken of, time then becomes comparable to the velocity of sound. The above is true not only for some of us as individual stu- dents, but also for organizations In which we take part the Stu- dent Government Association Is no exception, However, In spite of the vari- ability on the appearance of time's length, the Student Gov- ernment wishes to thank you for the support received from the student body during the past academic year. In addition, we would like to entreat the next President and his Cabinet, the Vice President and the Student Congress (all of which comprise your Student Government) to succeed and exceed the present Government and its endeavors to establish the type of Student Government that will represent the Student Body in the most beneficial fashion. The present structure of the Student Govern- ment was designed with such in- tentions. As the Government has been expanded and the consti- tution is being rewritten, the SGA is becoming affiliated with more active national and re- gional Student Associations, and formats and methods for passing bills and suggestive memoranda are being adopted, we challenge the Student Body to give even more support to its Government- Student Government is not an easy task. For this reason there are certain bills presently in leg- islation on campus, designed to provide compensation for your student leader and to afford him with more time and to provide your government with more working power. It is hoped that these bills, if passed, and every other bill passed will receive your fullest compliance. Again we thank you and so- licit your support for our re- maining term in office and for the term of the next Govern- ment. I wish to express my personal thanks to all for your cordiality while I have held what can sometimes become a difficult po- sition. Considering the coopera- tion I have received, I am in- clined to say that the position and its leadership experience served me well and I hope and trust that my contributions have been more than comparable. "Where To From Here" By James Robert Smith There comes a time in every man's life when he must face society eye to eye. This is good, but the question still remains: is he prepared? This question is being asked by man every day stretching from one side of the globe to the other. Is man pre- pared to accept the challenges and opportunities that society has to offer? This question can only be answered by man alone. Every individual must be able to evaluate himself and see whether he is able to meet life's challenges. In reference to the graduating class of 1966, I would like to know whether we have stopped and asked ourselves whether we are prepared to accept tomor- row's challenges. Education is a continuous process, but man must be able to educate himself both mentally and physically. Our college careers are coming to an end and we must be pre- pared to face society's challenges eye to eye. The time that we have spent in college and the learning process that we have indulged in is gone now, never to be re- captured again. Now is the time when we must put our educa- tional abilities to work. We must have something to offer to society. Graduating class of 1966, I dare you to accept tomorrow's challenges. As we leave the campus of Savannah State Col- lege, we may never see each other again. Nevertheless, if we are able to meet again during life's journey, we should be able to discuss the challenges that we faced in life and say whole- heartedly that we made a success. "WHERE TO FROM HERE?" This question should ring in the ears of every graduating senior not only at Savannah State Col- lege, but in the world. Some of us may shout for glory and say that it is all over, but stop and think, because it is only the be- ginning. Man lives in an ever- changing world dominated by the split and fused atoms. There- fore, in order for today's gradu- ate to be prepared to cope with tomorrow's world, he must always have the urge to learn a little more. Fellow graduates, yes! we are all happy. We are happy because we are about to face a turning point in our lives. We are happy because we are getting away from books and pencils, class- rooms, teachers, studying, etc. We are happy because we are about to face the wide world. Some of us are going to teach, while others are going to con- tinue their education. Some of us are going to meet out mili- tary obligations, while others are going to work in the various industries and laboratories over the country. Some of us are going to marry and be house- wives, while others are going to go into the fields of dentistry. medicine and divinity. I could name on and on and would never encompass all the many and varied occupations and chal- lenges that each graduate is going to face. As we go in our separate ways to accept life's challenges and face society eye to eye, I ask each of you to put forth your best efforts and burn high and bright the knowledge and educational experiences that you gained within the walls of Savannah State College. As we face tomorrow's world, we must hold our head up, walk straight forward, work dili- gently, and act circumspectedly so that we may be able to say that we are ready to face society eye to eye. We must be able to say that we are ready to accept life's challenges. Then fellow graduates, I can indeed say: A JOB WELL DONE. AS THE CUR RISES Pledge Chapter of Alpha Phi < hnega Reeeives Charier On Friday evening. May 20, 1966 the pledge chapters of Sa- vannah State and Armstrong Colleges of Alpha Phi Omega Service Fraternity, Inc. received their charters. Members and advisors were installed during an initiation ceremony followed by a banquet. The chapter of Savannah State is known as Rho Epsilon Chapter of Alpha Phi Omega Fraternity, Inc. There are twenty members, nine advisors and two honorary members. The charter officers of Rho Epsilon are: President, Roosevelt Campbell; 1st Vice President. Charles Savage, Jr.; 2nd Vice President, Archie Lawton, Jr.; Recording Secretary, Henry Jackson; Corresponding Secre- tary, Ithamus Studgeon; Treas- urer, Robert Rayford; Historian, Otha L. Douglas. Jr. Members are: James P. Carroll. Richard L, Hamilton, Daniel Hunter. Jr., Johnell Jackson, William A. Jones. Charles L. McCray. Gerald L. Mathis, James Robinson, Henry L. Spivey, Ralph E. Thompson, Willie I. Tyson, Jr., Robert Walls, Jr., and Calvin R. White. The charter advisors and honorary members are: Rev. Samuel Williams, Chairman of Advisory Committee, Dr. Robert D. Reid, Mr. E. J. Josey, Mr. J. B. Clemmons, Mr. Wilbur C. McAfee, Mr. Frank Mathis, Mr. R. V. Quarterman. Honorary members are: Dr. Howard Jordan, Jr. and Mr. Nelson R. Freeman. Service is the business of Rho Epsilon as well as the other 390 chapters throughout the United States, New Mexico, and Puerto Rico. There are four fields of service that are recognized; they are: (1) service to campus and stu- dent body, (2) service to com- munity, (3) service to nation, (4) service to members of the fraternity. We understand and accept the fact that we are not in com- petition with other fraternities, for we seek the "tie that binds" us all in a common goal that of offering service to better mankind. By William Martin In less than a month the senior class of Savannah State College will play main roles in the opening scene of a drama that begins with a baccalaureate and commencement service. The dialogue for the script has been written over the years of their pursuit or search for knowledge. For some this will be their final appearance, while for others it will be the first of a series of scenes and plays to come. This baccalaureate and commence- ment scene is only a minor one when compared to the roles they are about to try out. The question is, are they prepared? All would be well if playwrights Shakespeare, or George Bernard Shaw could write the future of each member of this class; for the end of this drama could very well be that "They lived happily ever after." But this is reality and each member of the class must determine for himself what role he will play and how well it will be played. Having given this thought, I bid each member God's blessing and success in his role playing. The stage is set; the cast is present and the curtains are about to be drawn. And remem- ber there are no small parts in any drama, only actors with like Eugene O'Neil, William small minds. VISTA Seeks College- Trained Volunteers The action arm of the War on Poverty known as VISTA seeks college-trained persons to spend a year of their lives in a battle against the economic despera- tion that still grips more than 35 million Americans. Most of the Volunteers In Service to America are young in the 20-to-24-year-old age bracket and of these, more than 75 percent have attended col- lege. VISTA has found that its college-trained Volunteers have the resourcefulness and ability to fight poverty in its worst pockets for low pay. bedrock subsistence allowances, and the satisfaction of doing something for somebody else that no one has done before. To join VISTA, a Volunteer must be at least 18 and a citizen of the United States. He can be over 80 and nobody questions how much over. After a Volun- teer is accepted, he is trained intensively for a period of weeks and then dispatched to a spot where poverty has sunk deep, often generations-old roots. Working under the general guidance of a local sponsor, most frequently with a minimum of supervision, the Volunteer dis- covers that his job is usually whatever he cares to make it. The job is to relieve the hurt of poverty; how much he can re- lieve it in a year is up to the Volunteer. For this, the Volunteer receives $50 a month which is banked for him until his year is up a bare subsistence allowance, and free medical and dental care. A Volunteer may be sent to Alaska to work with the poverty- strieken and isolated Aleuts on Kitska Island. Or a young woman Volunteer may find herself living in a six-sided hogan on a Navajo Indian reservation in Arizona where she uses her col- lege training to teach Indian children who had no teacher before she came. Other Volunteers are found in the migrant farm worker camps of California, Oregon and Florida. Still more have been sent back into the hard-hit areas of Appalachia and others work with the mentally ill and re- tarded. The Volunteers spring from virtually all backgrounds, trades, professions and skills. Their reasons for joining VISTA are as varied as the walks of life from which they came. There are 846 of them with teaching ex- perience and 564 have been trained in social welfare, soci- ology, guidance and counseling, and other social sciences. There are those from construc- tion and technical backgrounds and still others with experience in agriculture and farming. Another 177 come from the medical and health fields. And among its Volunteers VISTA has seven lawyers, four medical doctors, four dentists, and 19 registered nurses. The best sign of friendship is a smile. "Education is not 'received' It is achieved!" If you are always right, you're a bore! THE TIGERS ROAR STAFF ROBERT L. JOINER, JR. Associate Editors Clemontine Freeman, Charles Elmore Business Manager . .

We talked especially about their behavior at the talent show which was held here on campus. "I thought the fellows carried on awful the other night," one young lady said. "I think they were very stupid clowning the way they did," said another. I hate to down my sex, but its true. In my opinion, the conduct of the male students here at SSC needs to be improved. Not only at talent shows, or other activi- ties on campus, but in general campus life. The men students want to be called men but they do not act the part. Some of the fellows may think they are making a big hit with the girls. but they just don't know. I know, because I talk with the girls. As far as that old gag about "having fun," that's out. It is quite possible to have fun without letting everyone on earth know you are having it. The girls may lau^h, but oh how they talk afti .vards. A polite and well mannered man means much more to a girl than a clown. Berneta Smith said, "The one thing that the men on Savannah State College campus do not seem to realize is that they are 'college men' and should conduct themselves accordingly." I go along with that. "I think most of the young fellows on campus carry themselves in a loud manner. They don't know how to respect a woman at all." Who said that? Ann Habersham, that's who. "I think they carry on awful. They act like high school 'kids'," said Juanita Washington. Here is a nice one by Marilyn Jackson. "The ma- jority of the fellows on this campus act like kids. It seems as if they are trying to impress someone, but they are not doing a very good job of it." Joann Miller states that "There are some men students who have good conduct, and there are some that do not." Well I guess that's saying it real quick. "The minority of the men that I am around are very manner- able. At least they respect me. Of course we do have those who are on the other side of the fence." Those were the words of Marilyn McNichols. Constance Dunwoody puts it this way; "There are some young men who are well mannered, and know how to treat the young ladies. On the other hand, there are some who do not know how to treat or respect young ladies." It might be interesting to the fellows to find out how she wants to be treated. Here is a statement from one of those Scott girls. "I think the 'Boys' on campus are very unmanner- able and very childish." Which one? Audry Scott. Here is a statement from JaRene Person that sums it all up. "The men at SSC have a tendency to let their ignorance predominate them where their intelligence should exist." As it might be stated, that's a very good observation. Take heed men. Sweetheart of The Month By Walker Durham The final sweetheart for this school term is that most charm- ing and attractive Yvonne Le- Count. Yvonne is a native of Rice- boro, and attended the Public Schools of that city. Here at SSC she is a Junior majoring in English. She has recently been elected Miss SSC for the 1966-67 school term. She has also reigned as Miss Junior, and is a member of the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority. All hail the Queen, for she is a pure picture of beauty.

By Lillie Morris As the academic year draws to a close the Savannah State College Home Economics Chapter reflects some of the highlights of its program for 1965-66. One of the many interesting experiences was the report from representatives to the Executive Council Meeting. It was our first time Home Economics majors felt the pulse of what's happen- ing in the college chapters over the state. On campus the department has participated in many college functions and received recog- nition on many occasions. Two of the campus queens for the annual homecoming were home economics students. The Spring Quarter is always a time of challenges and excit- ment for Home Economics seniors. Senior Textile Clothing majors are getting "on the job experience" in the departmental stores and are finding it most rewarding. The Foods and Nutri- tion majors are meeting a com- munity need by providing help and experience for the Day Care Centers and Kindergartens of Chatham County. Club meetings have been alive as members of the college family inform, encourage and challenge the students to read and listen to reports of National and Inter- national work among the de- prived people of the world. Such insights have motivated the Chapter to include in next year's budget a contribution to the AHEA International Scholarship Fund. SSC's Home Economics Chap- ter has recently become affili- ated with the Georgia Home Economics Association. The as- sociation has proven to be a challenging experience for mem- bers. Carol Reese. Evelyn Ellison and Lillie Morris were representatives to the convention at Calloway Gardens. Several other members were present and our Chapter Advisor. The theme, "Action For Ad- vancing" was successfully car- ried out. We feel that Home Economics as a profession is inspiring and satisfying. POETS CORNER To the Senior Class of 1966 By Deloris Moss Dear Seniors of Nineteen Sixty- six, This poem for you I just had to fix, Thank you for the kindness that has been shown through the years, Now that you are leaving SSC. I will shed many tears. But your parting will be a happy one Because your work at SSC is done. Do not think that all work has come to an end. Please remember, it is only about to begin. Do not give up when life gets rough, Show people your best is not enough. When you have done far past your best; Through life's hard trails you've stood the test. Although you may travel far, far away, I'll probably read in the paper one day, (It will read) You did succeed; you attained success, Then my heart and others will be filled with happiness. GOD BE WITH YOU Fashion Parade Juanita Wright Dorothy Jordan By Juanita Wright and Dorothy Jordan For your summer travel the accent is basically on time and not place in planning your travel wardrobe. How you dress for where you are going is not as important as how you dress for the occasions. Glamour magazine says all over the world people dress more or less the same way at the same hour of the day for the same kind of places. However, the dif- ferences in the way you dress depend on where you go city, mountain resort, or beach. Once you've planned a basic wardrobe for each, it won't change much no matter what city, mountain resort or beach you go to any- where in the world. Remember, how much you pack will depend on your stay. So off you go for summer have fun! -If for Girls" If you can hear the whispering about you And never yield to deal in whis- pers, too; If you can bravely smile when loved ones doubt you And never doubt, in turn, what loved ones do; If you can keep a sweet and gentle spirit In spite of fame or fortune, rank or place, And though you win your goal or only near it, Can win with poise or lose with equal grace; If you can meet with Unbelief, believing, And hallow in your heart, a sim- ple creed, If you can meet Deception, un- deceiving, And learn to look to God for all you need; If you can be what girls should be to mothers', Chums in joy and comrades in distress, And be unto others as you'd have the others Be unto you no more, and yet no less; If you can keep within your heart the power To say that firm, unconquer- able "No," If you can brave a present shad- owed hour Rather than yield to build a fu- ture woe; If you can love, yet not let lov- ing master, But keep yourself within your own self's clasp. And not let Dreaming lead you to disaster Nor Pity's fascination lose your your grasp; If you can lock your heart on confidences Nor ever needlessly in turn con- fide; If you can put behind you all pretenses Or mock humility or foolish pride; If you can keep the simple, homely virtue Of walking right with God then have no fear That anything in all the world can hurt you And which is more you'll be a Woman, dear. A friend, indeed, is one not in need. What is wisdom? Only the desire to pursue it.

Intelligence Not Fixed at Birth, but Firs! 5 Years Vital We can make kids smarter. But we have to work fast That's the view of University of Illinois psychology professor Dr. Joseph McVicker Hunt. In an interview in the May Reader's Digesl Dr. Hunt writes. "We might raise the average level of intelligence during the next generation or two by 30 points of I Q, provided we reach the children early enough." Contrary to the old view thai intolliumre is fixed at con- ception, we now know that a child is endowed only with an intellectual potential, Dr. Hunt writes He has to learn how to learn. This process usually takes place dining the first four or five years of life. Environment plays a leading rule "Children brought up in homes where they are played with and exposed to a wide variety of sights and sounds develop more fully than children brought up In institu- tions where they are deprived of these advantages," he writes To provide the advantages, parents should give their infants a wide variety of things to hear, see and handle. Simple devices boxes, pots and other household objects are just as good as ex- pensive toys for the purpose Freedom plays an equally vital role, says Dr. Hunt Children should be free to "try out the world, to walk, climb, jump, manipulate and throw things." "He also needs affectionate adults who provide a responsive audience, answer his endless questions, serve as models for imitation, and ask him questions that he must use language to answer." By providing the opportunities for children to learn, parents can help raise the child's intelli- gence and contribute toward a society in which Intelligence is higher than any of us may think possible. In comparing accident rates, you realize that horses have more sense than drivers. The Sixteenth Annual Awards Day Observance was held at Sa- vannah state College May 20, in Wiley Gymnasium.

Both students and members of the faculty are being secretly approached to engage in halluc- inogenic "experiences." There is direct evidence of widespread availability of a number of drugs which have profound effects on the mental processes. I wish to alert all educational administra- tors to the gravity of the situa- tion and to enlist their assist- ance in combatting an insidious and dangerous activity. We are faced with a most hazardous situation. Unless strong concerted action is taken, an untold number of our stu- dents may suffer permanent mental and physical injury. Any instances of the illegal use or possession of these drugs or sleep-delaying drugs, such as the amphetamines, should be re- ported at once to the Food and Drug Administration district office. You may wish to institute other appropriate measures, such as an inspection program, laboratory supervision, or special counseling. The Food and Drug Adminis- tration, in Washington and in its district offices, is ready to cooperate with you to the fullest extent. Feel free to send us any questions you may have and any information which will aid in eliminating the illegal use of hallucinogenic and stimulant drugs. Florida Academy Combines Summer Study with Travel The Travel Academy at the Fountain of Youth, Ponce De- Leon Springs. Florida 32028. will conduct a study-travel program for high school and college stu- dents this summer. Students may participate in any or all of the program which begins on June 13 and ends on Septem- ber 2. Instructors coach students each morning from 9:30 to noon In correspondence courses (which are fully accredited) offered through extension services of the University of Florida. Ponce DeLeon Springs, which is known to many SCUBA divers for the depth, clarity, and enor- mous flow of its waters, is itself a vacation spot. The Academy will also conduct these trips dur- ing the summer; June 15-17 Trailer trip to Ocala National Forest. June 27-July 5 Trailer trip to Miami via the east coast of Florida, and charter boat trip to Bimini in the Bahamas. July 11-19 Trailer trip to Key West via the west coast of Florida, and charter boat trip to Fort Jefferson in the Dry Tortugas.

May 31. 1966 THE TIGER'S ItOAK Page 5 CLUB & CAMPUS FASHIONS By CHIP TOLBERT ESQUIRE'S FASHION EDITOR THE TRANSITION TO SPRING gradually releases us all from our musty Winter hang-ups. The state-of-seige atmosphere on campus diminishes as the thermometer rises, and overnight that term paper you've been dreading falls into place. Spring is also the proper time to think about shifting you*' wardrobe in the direction of the warm weather months ahead... LIGHTWEIGHT, EASY-CARE: these the watchwords in tailored apparel. Crisp, cool fab- rics with built-in wrinkle-resistance and/or per- manent press features are now standard. The color story for Spring focuses on BLUEGRASS, a blend of vibrant blues and sparkling greens. It should rank as a top color consideration in selecting all your Spring/Summer apparel. A pin wale-cord suit, for example, in a lightweight cotton/polyester blend, or a classic Natural Shoulder seersucker suit in a BLUEGRASS blend are excellent choices. Lightweight, double- breasted blazers will introduce a whole new spectrum of colors. But before purchasing, look ahead: is this a summer geared for absolute relaxation, a summer job, or, if you're graduat- ing, your entry into the business world next Fall? Make your selection accordingly. "AWAY FROM WHITE" That phrase eharae- terizes the gradual phasing out of the classic white dress shirt. Today, color predominates, and blue leads the pack. Look also for a wide range of soft pastel shades, both solids and stripes; they blend perfectly with the new Spring suits. Many of these color-toned dress shirts incorporate permanent press features. Another trend worth noting: the button-down collar sans buttons. Collar points are slightly longer, the buttons disappear altogether, and the buttonless button-down may be worn with or without a pin. ACCESSORIES MAKE THE MAN, and you couldn't get off to a better start than by selecting one of the new Summer straw hats. Time was when Memorial Day marked the date for turning in your winter felt and bringing out your summer straw. Today, any time the weather's right, the time is right. The classic boater with its flat top, relatively narrow brim, and colorful ribbon band remains a top choice among college men. The panama with its characteristic crown ridge has been modified in size and will appear in both closed and open weave meshes. Though light, off-white and natural tan shades predominate, you'll see a number of new color variations, including a pewter gray milaii with its characteristic center crease and pinched front. As the 1965-66 academic year conies to a close people, in the sports world continue to set rec- ords. Below are the latest statistics released by the National Associa- tion of Intercollegiate Athletics: Hunter Edwards, William Carey (Miss,), slipped 12 points, but still is batting a hefty .593, which is the top average this week in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA). The senior shortstop has col- lected 35 hits in 59 times at bat to retain the lead he gained two weeks ago when he was batting .605. Runnerup Bob Sutton, Frostburg State (Md.), the only other player above the .500 mark, owns a .528 average. There is a tie for third place between Roy Couch, Texas Southern, and E. D, Turner, St. Andrews Presbyterian (N. C). Each owns a .489 average. Only one hurler, Gorman Johnson (2-0) of Maryland State, has a perfect earned run aver- age. Johnson has not allowed an earned run in 21 2/3 innings. Five pitchers boast perfect 5-0 records and nine others are 4-0. Those with 5-0 marks include Bill Drummond, Buena Vista (Iowa); Ed Parker, Guilford (N. C); Kevin Soden, Belmont Abbey (N. C.f; Dennis Lind- strand, Sam Houston State (Tex.), and Joe Stover, William Carey (Miss.). William Carey (13-2) leads in team batting with a .348 aver- age, seven points better than Panhandle A & M (Okla.) (11-3). Augsburg (Minn.) (6-3) has the best team fielding average, an impressive .980, seven points better than last year's fielding leading West Georgia. Doyle Lyman. LaVerne (Calif.), has hit 8 home runs in 18 games to lead this category in percent- age, but two other players have hit 9 homers. They are Elby Bushong, California Western and Jim Rawls, LaVerne. One of the longest games in NAIA history was reported this week. It took Peru State (Neb.) 20 innings Tuesday to turn back Hastings (Neb.), 4-1, and to make the situation even more difficult, it was just the first game of a doubleheader. Sports Outlook With Lewis Witherspoon and Frank Ellis Since this is my last article, I am going to pay tribute to a great group of people who work together as a team to bring SSC recognition in the world of track and field. I am talking about Coach Richard Washington and the thin cladmen of SSC track and field team. Within this closely knitted group you can find the spirit of a true Tiger. The fact that the members of the team are participating be- cause they want to, and not be- cause of financial assistance is all the proof I need to justify my statement, that these people truthfully and emphatically exemplify that great SSC spirit. Since taking over the job of coaching the team, Coach Wash- ington has entered the team in such track and field meets as the Florida Relays, the South Caro- lina Relays, and the meet that is held at Tuskegee annually. In talking to Coach Washington, he stated that "this was done in order to give the fellows a chance to compete against some of the top competition In the area of track and field." In doing this, Coach Washington antici- pated the idea that It would im- prove their performance against the teams of the S.E.A.C. As Coach Washington suspected, the team's performance did improve and they proved it by winning the conference championship. This year the tide changed and SSC scored in every event except the broad jump and the high jump to edge the former cham- pions out by a score of 70-64. Well, so long sports fans. Re- member: KEEP PULLING FOR THE TIGERS. SSC Begins Driver Education (lass Under the leadership of Mr. Clyde W. Hall, Director of the Division of Technical Sciences, Savannah State College is offer- ing an inservice workshop in Driver Education from June 13 to August 12 for Georgia's public- school secondary teachers. This workshop is sponsored by the Georgia State Department of Education and each partici- pating teacher will receive a Grant-in-Ald from the State ranging from $150 to $450 de- pending upon his quarter hour credit load. This money was pro- vided by a legislative enactment of the last Georgia General Assembly. The purpose of the workshop is to provide an opportunity for public school secondary teachers to qualify to teach driver edu- cation. Each participant is ex- pected to serve a portion of his time next school term teaching driver education to secondary pupils. Wherever there is injustice, you have the opportunity as well as the obligation to right a wrong. SPECIAL MESSAGE TO STUDENTS WHO ARE RESIDENTS OF GEORGIA WHEN YOU FILE YOUR INCOME TAX RETURN...

Featured in the bulletin will be the results of research con- ducted by the teachers in con- junction with course activities. The class is divided into three groups. The members of the groups work closely to gain In- sight into the various problems which confront the classroom teacher. The groups used many meth- ods to compile their initial find- ings. Some of the methods used were forums, lectures, demon- strations, and films. Final re- ports will be made during the last week of the session, before the publication of the workshop bulletin. Mrs. Jewell F. W. Dunlap, a Jones County, North Carolina social studies teacher, is chair- man of the bulletin committee. Speaker W. A.

Dr. C. H. Wesley Speaks at 94th Commencement Dr. Charles H. Wesley, President and Executive Director of the Association for the Study of Ne- gro Life and History, addressed 190 graduates at Savannah State College's 94th commencement exercises, Sunday, June 5, 1966. In Willcox Gymnasium at 3 P.M. Dr. Wesley's chosen topic was "Dynamic Living in an Aging Revolution." Dr. Wesley pointed out the three phases of revolution, the revolution of knowledge, the rev- olution in population, and the revolution of freedom. He cited these revolutions and said that this Is the first time in history that the cry of freedom is going on all over the world. Dr. Wesley advised the gradu- ates that "We must be more than mechanically trained. You must translate the processes of the classroom, laboratory and library Into power for purpose- ful living in life." He also stated that you must be one who never turns your back, we have the duty to exer- cise the rights which are to be ours, but true freedom must be earned. Dr. Wesley said, be assured that your color is not against you, abandon the concept of in- feriority because life is made to be overcomed. "Learn to hold your head high, not as an inferior, but as an American. He also stated, "Dream but do not let dreams become your mas- ter." Dr. Wesley asserted that we live in a world where workman- ship is required. He advised the graduates to exercise imagina- tion, and believe in achievement, take with you imagination and work. He also stated that your work is unfinished, beyond this is the university of life. Let us be strong, and live dynamically in the age of revolution. s \SF IOTITITE MS Science Teachers Expect Much From Institute By Samuel E. Murray The thirty-three elementary science teachers who are en- rolled in the Institute sponsored by National Science Foundation are looking forward to gaining vital and useful information, sci- entific skills and techniques which will be beneficial to them when they return to our school system in the fall. Many of the members, with their varied background in sci- ence education, have different objectives in view. Some of the members are striving to become certified to teach elementary science. Others are looking for- ward to becoming more skillful in the use of scientific instru- ments and equipment that are being put to use in our elemen- tary science laboratories for the first time. Still others have not been exposed to any chemistry or physical science that we feel should be a part of our educa- tional program in this never ending quest for knowledge. THE TIGER'S ROAR STAFF PUBLISHED BY AND FOR THE STUDENTS OF SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE 1st SUMMER EDITION 1966 STAFF Editors Gwendolyn Buchanan, Elmer Thomas, Sister M. Antoinette, Chairman Secretary and Office Manager Audry Scott Assistant Secretaries Willie Mae Young, Joyce Bryant Advisers Wilton S. Scott, (Co-ordinator), Luetta C. Milledge, Robert Holt Photographer Robert Mobley On June 13 teachers from 13 states registered in the Science Library of the B. F. Hubert Technical Sciences Center for the National Science Founda- tion Institute to be held from June 13 to August 5 at Savan- nah State College. The Institute and registration is under the direction of Dr. Charles Pratt, head of the Chemistry Department. Dr. Pratt introduced the professors of the Institute: Dr. K. Raut from India, a professor of chemistry, and Dr. Wilson of Ottawa, Kansas, a professor of physical science. The professors will be assisted by Dr. Irvan J. Weiss, Little Neck, New York. A round of introductions by each instructor followed. Following the introductions. Dr. Pratt briefly summarized the courses of the Institute, they are: Physical Science, a study which emphasizes basic princi- ples of the physical sciences covering earth, sky, energy. matter, and change; Chemistry, a study of the composition and nature of matter with the changes which it undergoes with the related energy changes, and more in particular, with the reason for these changes. Both sciences will be taught through lectures by the instruc- tors from 8:30 a.m. to 12 noon; laboratory instruction from 1:15 to 4 p.m., and visiting lecturers, films, and school tours. The group voted Mrs. Emma F, Wortham from Fairfax, North Carolina, General Chairman of the Institute. Sister Mary Antoinette, O.S.F., of Marceline. Missouri was chosen Chairman of the Pub- licity Committee. Other members of the Com- mittee are: Mrs. Julia Holland of Savannah; Sister Raymond de Marie, Hartford. Conn.; and Mrs. Frances B. Gresham, Sa- vannah. Secondary Science Institute at SSC By Sister Ann Christopher, S.N.D. Did you get that problem? What was your answer to num- ber 6? Anybody understand what he said? Questions such as these are frequently heard during the morning coffee break taken by the participants in the Secondary Science Institute, which is under the direction of Dr. Willie Tucker. The participants welcome the break that follows a seventy-five minute lecture period where topics on the nomenclature of inorganic compounds, and the structure of matter has been studied, and where topics on the Kinetic -Molecular Theory, the liquid and solid states, the peri- odic table, chemical bonds, and chemical equilibrium are sched- uled for future lectures. After the half hour break, all return to Room 110 in the Payne Building for group discussion on the topic covered in the pre- vious lecture. Occasionally dur- ing this period films are shown which pertain to the various branches of science. The afternoon program con- sists of a daily math class under the direction of Mr. J. B. Clem- mons. and a lab on Monday, Wednesday and Friday super- vised by Mr. Clay. Tuesday and Thursday are free for individual conference with the instructors. Education is not confined to the classroom alone, so future field trips have been planned, including a trip to Florida which will take in St. Augustine, Marineland, and Silver Springs. Several prominent guest lec- turers have been Invited to speak to the participants in the various fields of science. Mrs. Orestha C. Hardy, Lanett, Alabama, was chosen Chairman of the Entertainment Commit- tee Other members of this Com- mittee are: Mrs. Ruby C. Black, Savannah; Mrs. Rachel E. Thomas, Savannah; Mrs. W. N, Mobley, Calhoun, Ga.; Sister M. Jean, Barberton, Ohio; Sister M. Anicetus, Caledonia, Minn.; Mrs. Gladys W. Hobbs, Louisville, Ga.; Mrs. Julia Holland, Savan- nah; Mrs. Calvan L. Owens, Es- till, S. C; Mrs. Samuel E. Mur- ray, Dale, S. 0.; and Tyler Spikes, China, Texas. The Publicity Committee plans to publish two Science News Bul- letins. Highlights planned by the En- tertainment Committee are : A Get-Acquainted Evening at the home of Mrs. Emma F. Wortham, and educational tours of historic sites in Georgia. The Institute group will spend a weekend at Jekyll Island, Ga.; and the Okefeenokee Swamp. Joseph E. Smith, graduate of Southern University, is Book- keeper in the office of the Comptroller. State Consultant Gives Address To Workshop A State Department of Edu- cation Science consultant, George Sturgis, told education workshop personnel that "one demonstration is worth a thou- sand words" in accomplishing the objectives of science edu- cation. Sturgis advised the teacher to "get away from reading (assign- ments oral in class) and to let students find out for them- selves." The audience was made up of the education faculty in addi- tion to in-service teachers en- rolled in various education work- shops now in session at SSC. "The heart of each teaching experience is demonstration," Sturgis asserted. In keeping with this philosophy, the science con- sultant went on to show just how these demonstrations and experiments might work in a typical classroom situation. Students were called upon to pretend they were third grade pupils. Sturgis set about to show how the subject of magnetism might be handled in that grade level. Throughout the lecture-dem- onstration "third grades" were called upon to play the roles of molecule conductions, and in general to assist with the ex- periments. Earl Marshall, a science teacher from Perry High School, showed what could be done with these components. He presented an array of gadgets made from the simplest projects. Tobor pointed out that the items on hand ranged all the way from "prisms to sheep." One Georgia College moved an old army barracks to their cam- pus and remodeled it into a $370,000 dormitory. In some instances schools have obtained refrigeration equipment, power machinery and cafeteria equipment, July 22. 1966 THE TIGER'S ROAR Page 3 WORK ISA PLEASURE AT SSC ji^jv-m in Members of Ihe educational workshop at Savannah State College are the following: Front row: Elmer Thomas, Bobby Garuin, John Durden, Leonard A.

July 22. 1966 THE TIGER'S ROAR * * * * 7 E &? tsnB 4* ^ 4* 4* Spotlight on Beauty & Fashion By Margie Bryant and Joan Wright Hi, Girls! Ready for another beauty hint? Well, what's your problem? Summer is here and it is time for another beauty hint. It is true that the weather is hot and stuffy, but there are many practical, cool, casual and carefree styles that will make you attractive to your favorite beau. This season short hair styles are softer with more wave, movement and swing, as opposed to the very straight or tight look. According to Richard of Helena Rubinstein, "the hair that is free and has motion is ideal for summer fun." All you have to do is follow these two rules: First, select your style on the basis of your hair texture, each one is cued to coarse, nor- mal or fine hair. Second, treat yourself to a really professional cut short, simples styles depend on expert scissorwork for shap- ing and coaxing of the hair. It is nice if your hair possesses body, but remember, teasing is optional. Your hair style should be back combed just a little, but not really tease. Barbara Factor says "scarf up ... if you plan on going on a trip. The best way to do this would be to get matching scarf and outfit; in that way you're not only keeping with the styles, but you're protecting your hair, if it has a tendency to go straight or curl up during these hot summer days." This is a unique way to stay your loveli- est for your favorite beau. Sim- ply wear it by placing it over your hair and then tying it be- hind your neck or under your chin. Newspaper's Use- Unlimited! By Audry Scott The value of a daily newspaper is almost unlimited . . . Just think of the many ways in which a newspaper can be used. A number of examples come to mind instantly: Lining garbage pails, shelves, drawers, etc Providing Rover with on-the- fioor facilities. Starting a fire. If you roll it up, tie it, soak it with water. and let it dry, you can also make a good log for the fireplace. Swatting flies, bugs, and other undesirables. Copying dress patterns by out- lining existing patterns, or cre- ating new designs. Covering rugs and floors after a waxing or cleaning. Making spit-balls, particularly good for the more juvenile ele- ments, Wrapping valuables for stor- age in basement or attic. Covering objects that you don't want the neighbors to see in your garbage can. Creating airplanes, gliders, and boats. Stuffing glassware and other breakables for crating when you move to another home. Tearing and shredding it for canary, mice, hamster cages. Making funny hats for parties. Using it as drop cloths when painting the ceiling or shining shoes, or for protection when re- 10. 13 Everything you say and do is l confession about yourself. To keep your mind clean, change it once in a while. ' . Bell- bottoms are already a summer staple, and this season will see the C.P.O. shirt introduced for warm weather wear. Chief C.P.O. characteristics: they're blue, non-button-down, and have two flapped pockets in front. Many models feature epaulettes. Look for them in cotton, brushed denim and polyester blends in both long and short sleeved models. RAINBOWS OF COLOR mark this season's soft, cotton sweatshirts in a wide variety of styling variations. Color to your taste in peach, pink, red or coral, lime, orange, copper or bronze, burgundy, lavender, or smoky charcoal. Styles include the traditional crew neck with long sleeves, V-necks, turtlenecks and mock turtles by the score, some featuring short-sleeved styling. Boating parkas in water repellent nylon will mostly be seen in bold com- petition stripes. Hot horizontal or vertical stripes in, for example, white, yellow or red, complement body colors in Navy, blue-green blends, and burgundy. And don't overlook bell bottoms in blue stretch denim, poplin jackets with a front zipper and a drawstring bottom, and India madras walking shorts. THE SANDS OF TIME swirl through the hourglass, and another academic year bites the dust. Now it's time for sandy beaches, skin diving, water skiing, and sailing. However you select to spend your summer leisure, make the most of it, and with luck we'll both be back next Fall with the scoop on Back-to-College fashions. See you then. OCopyricht, 190C.

Wilton C. Scott. Director of Public Relations and Coordinator of Student Publications at Savannah State College discusses awards with S. J. Weissberger (right). Executive Director, Educational Press Association of America. Syracuse University, Syracuse, New York. Looking on are two graduates of Savannah State College, J. W. Wells, a public school teacher in Miami and Robert Jordan, Principal, Everglade High School of Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The Tiger's Roar, official student newspaper at Savannah State College, was awarded a certificate for excellence in Journalism at the 104th Annual Meeting of the National Education Association Convention held at Miami Beach, Florida, in conjunction with the Educational Press Association of America. An award was also given to Robert L. Joiner, Editor-in-Chief of the Tiger's Roar, junior at Savannah State College for Dis- tinguished Performance in Typography. There were over 100 entries from State Teacher Associations, State Department of Education, College and Universities in the 50 States and outlying provinces. The Tiger's Roar won 1st prize in Format and Typography. Chemistry Dept. Receives Fund Charles Pratt, head, depart- ment of chemistry, has an- nounced that the chemistry de- partment has been given an interest free loan fund by the Kindle Foundation for Educa- tion of Westwood, New Jersey. This loan will begin on Sep- tember 1 in the amount of $8,000. It will support two stu- dents a $1 .000 a year for four years of college. The foundation provides the necessary funds for a student to attend college. The loan is pay- able after the student's gradu- ation at the rate of 10 per cent of the student's salary. The loan was obtained through the Charles Pfizer Chemical Corporation in conjunction with the efforts of Nelson R. Freeman, dean of students at Savannah State College. Electronic Driving Simulators at SSC The Edex-Aetna Drivotrainer Teaching and Traveling Exhibit appeared at the Technical Science Center of Savannah State College August 1 and 2. This Exhibit was in a semi- trailer which is on a national tour of colleges and universities with driver education programs. There were six electronic driver education simulators in this trailer which were operated by the public. These simulators were designed to teach the beginning driver how to drive and they are the latest development in driver education. The public visited this Exhibit and drove the simu- lators. Scientific Paper Charles Pratt, head, depart- ment of chemistry and Odessa Williams, student research as- sistant, will present a scientific paper on the study of the auto- degradation of the digestive enzyme, pepsin. This paper will be presented August 16 before the Botannical Society of America, at the Uni- versity of Maryland, College Park, Maryland. Dr. Pratt is a member of this society. Miss Williams has found that the commercial preparation of pepsin automatically degrades itself into nine different frac- tions. Only one fraction which she designated as number seven, remains active for the degrada- tion of other proteins.

DeLoach June 19 was the beginning of an exciting and adventurous journey into the realms of edu- cation for 100 students who had just been promoted to eleventh and twelfth grades. They moved to the Savannah State College Campus; unloaded their bags and suitcases; then joined to- gether in an hour of music, en- tertainment and refreshments. The summer session of the Sa- vannah State College Upward Bound Project was celebrating its grand opening! That unforgettable day is in the past now, it has taken its place on the historic record of Upward Bound Project and another historic, but sad day is fast approaching, This day is August 12, 1966, the end of the eight weeks summer session. There is a consolation, however; a follow up program on Saturday is to begin on September 17 and will last through May 27, 1967. Perhaps you've asked what's so great about school and edu- cation, especially during the summer months when everybody is supposed to be vacationing. Well, there are some 100 young people around and about Chat- ham County who will say "every- thing" when there's a good mix- ture of work and play. To get an idea of what is meant by this, take a peep at the program's many activities: Classes started with a "bang," instructors and students seemed to compete with others in experimental method- ology. Classes were small, therefore lend themselves to this kind of experimental instruction. Eng- lish Communicative Skills Classes have been doing a variety of things from group reading and discussions of great classic literature to dramatizations. Mrs. Abbie Jordan's classes gave their interpretations of "Rip Van Winkle," by use of puppet demonstrations and dramatizations, They are now preparing to present several of Shakespeare's plays, including "The Taming of the Shrew." "Othello" and "Henry VIII i eighth > ." Mr, Jack Fowler's classes got into the swing also. They presented skits such as "Over the River and Through the Woods" and "The Snake." Mr. Tyson's classes have been using tape recorders and audio- visual aids as a means of im- proving their speech through self-evaluation. A recent visitor from the local OEO Office said that Mr. Robert Holt's method- ology was the "most inspir- ing and ingenious Instruc- tional device" for motivation of group discussion that she had ever seen. The very same can be echoed about the classes of Miss Virginia Hudson and Mr. Robert Stevenson. To add to the enrichment In the Mathematics Division, Mrs, Martha Wilson offers a course in Computer Programming. Mr. Charles Day, a tutor- counselor, conducts a slide-rule class in the afternoons. Thanks to Mrs. Wilson, Mrs. Bowens, Mrs. Singleton and Mr. Leon, Mathematics moved from the more simple skills to the com- plex. New horizons have been opened and explored. The Great Issues classes are by no means lagging. They have discussed many controversial topics. In connection with their studies of "Roles of Government" and "Urbanization," Miss Ada Simpkins gave a lecture on prob- lems of housing and urban re- newal; and in connection with their study of the United Na- tions, she gave another inspiring lecture on "Enforcing the Peace." Mr, Johnson's. Mrs. Dean's and Mr. Robert's classes have all en- joyed discussing such topics as "Citizenship: the Rights and Duties of a Citizen" and debat- (Continued on Page 2) Music Department Elementary education majors are undergoing intensive train- ing in the area of music under the direction of Coleridge A. Braithwaite. chairman, depart- ment of fine arts. The courses involved are Fundamentals of Music and Public School Music for Elementary School Teachers, These courses carry three hours credit. In the first half of the session a class of forty juniors and seniors concentrated on learning the basic construction of music. These constructions included lines and spaces, clef signs, key signatures, major and minor scales, time signatures, primary and secondary intervals, kinds of notes and miscellaneous patterns. According to Dr. Braithwaite, time is devoted to the develop- ment of actual music skills needed in the elementary school classroom, One of the most im- portant activities is the making of rhythm instruments each week. Alumni Grunt Received Howard Jordan. Jr., president of Savannah State College an- nounced that the Savannah State College National Alumni Association presented a check for $4,000 for scholarships and grants-in-aid at the college. Vocational Education Thirty-five vocational educa- tion teachers from area voca- tional technical schools and sec- ondary schools located in all sections of Georgia are in at- tendance at a three-week Trade and Industrial Workshop at Sa- vannah State. This workshop began August 1 and will end on August 19. This workshop is directed by Clyde W Hall, chairman of the division of technical sciences. It is designed to acquaint in- service vocational education teachers with the techniques of analyzing an occupation for in- structional purposes. SSC Alumnus Appointed Timothy U. Ryals, former principal of Susie Dasher Ele- mentary School and Director of the Oconee High Choral Society, was appointed assistant execu- tive secretary for the Georgia Teachers and Education Associ- ation by the board of directors at a recent meeting. Ryals has worked for twelve years In the Dublin school system. He has served as president of the Dublin city unit of the Geor- gia Teachers and Education As- sociation and the first president of the Dublln-Laurens County Unit. His activities In the Dublin community are many. He is the music director for the city-wide Youth Fellowship of Dublin. He has served as chairman of the Red Cross Fund Drive, He is a member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., the Free Accepted Masons and Delta PI Epsllon honorary business fra- ternity. Ryals has toured Europe ex- tensively, having been to Eng- land and France and many other parts of the continent. As an undegraduate at Savan- nah State, he served as President of the Student Council, Presi- dent of the Business Club, mem- ber of the choral society and organist for the college assembly. He was also a tutor for Alpha Kappa Mu and Vice President of the Junior Class at Savannah State. In 1954 he was named "Man of the Year" at Savan- nah State. He Is also a former editor of the "Tiger's Roar." Two-Man Art Show Held at Hill Hall The art of Cpl. Dave Duffin and Cpl. Marshal Sudderth, Jr., was on exhibit August 1 through August 12. in Hill Hall at Sa- vannah State College. The two-man art show in- cluded more than sixteen pieces of photography and art illustra- tions. Cpl. Duffin's home Is in Phila- delphia. He attended the Phila- delphia College of Art, He later worked for "Allied Studio." Ac- cording to Phillip Hampton, assistant professor of fine arts at Savannah State, Duffin makes the show unique with his use of texture and form in the fine art and science of photography. Corporal Sudderth, studied with some of New York's lead- ing designers before joining the Marine Corps. He attended the Art Student's League and the Frank Reilly School of Art in New York. Sudderth was em- ployed at Macy's and Blooming- dale's in New York in their de- partments of advertising art. Both men are members of the U. S. Marine Corps and are sta- tioned at Parrls Island, South Carolina. Pose 2 THE TIGER'S HOAR August 19. 1966 A Trip to the Savannah River Atomic Laboratory Annual. Journalism Workshop Hold By Dr. Irving J. Weiss The trip to the Atomic Laboratory was educationally very profitable. Dr. F. E. Kinard, a physicist, gave a general brief- ing about the plant and its operation. The Atomic Energy Commission awarded a contract to DuPont Company to operate this plant, which is concerned with the manufacture of isotopes. Fuel is fed into Nuclear reactors that make irradiated material. Dr. R. M. Wallace, a chemist, spoke about the chemical aspects involved in radition and isotope production. One of the problems Is cor- rosion of material. This can be prevented by controlling the PH concentration. Separation and extraction can be accomplished by using organic solvents to get recovery of uranium and other radioactive elements. Some of the research had to be performed in massive buildings with walls 12 feet thick. Further research in organic chemistry and the chemistry of the actlnlde elements were necessary in order that im- proved methods of separation could be effected. One of the functions of the Chemistry Di- vision is to make an analysis of the material. Mr. Boersma was our guide through the Savannah River Laboratory Building. The group was instructed to don plastic shoes to prevent contamination and wear goggles. The first room the group entered was a high level radioactive cave. Tech- nicians had to use remote manipulators to perform chem- ical operations. In the glass shop glass ap- paratus was made according to specifications of the research chemists at Savannah River. The analytical counting room is used for detecting alpha, beta, and gamma rays by an infra- red spectrometer. The mass spectrometers is used for detect- ing impurities in liquids and solids. Dr. D. G. Karraker spoke about rare earth chemistry. Using a fluorescent light he demon- strated color changes in euro- peum (redt and terbium (green). In another room alpha radi- ation was detected with the aid of a Geiger counter Before leaving the group checked out for any contamina- tion with radiation. The trip was a very rewarding experience scientifically. Art Education At Savannah State Phillip Hampton, assistant professor of fine arts, at Savan- nah State College, announced that the children's art project In art education 401 was under- taken by three student groups. The first group introduced the techniques of vegetable printing to the elementary school chil- dren. The other groups exposed the children to clay projects and finger painting. Mr. Hampton stated that those projects were taught from an experimental point of view to observe the types of art that small children responded to and the comments that they made. Upward Hoiinil (Continued from Page I) ing such issues as "Resolved that the Russian System of Education Is Better Than The American System." Under this department is a United Nations Club, directed by Mr. Roberts, a Current Events Seminar, conducted by Mrs. Dean; and a Debating Club under the direction of tutor- counselor, Mr. James Sapp. Speaking of the Debating Club it debated Morehouse College's Upward Group on August 3, at 1:00 p.m. in the A. V. Center. Both teams debated both sides of the topic "Resolved That Red China Should Be Admitted to the U.N." There was a 1 to 1 decision on this debate. The team is looking forward to other such debates in future. Looking closer at the play and entertainment side of the pro- gram, there have been several social-cultural events for Up- word Bound students. To men- tion a few there have been several record hops, birthday parties, trips, basketball games and other activities. Trips to Marineland, St. Augustine, Flor- Cheinislry Department Marcus Hobbs of Duke Uni- versity and representative of the National Science Foundation visited the undegraduate re- search program supervised by Dr, Charles Pratt and Dr. K. Raut at Savannah State. Hobbs came to evaluate and discuss the undergraduate re- search program at the college, for the National Science Founda- tion. Robert Ghiradelli, representa- tive of the U. S. Army Office of Research visited the research programs carried on at Savan- nah State for the U. S. Army. Dr. Ghiradelli came to ob- serve the caliber of undergradu- ate students working on these government projects, and how much progress had been made in the research program. He esti- mated the research at Savannah State to see if there were any possibilities for future grants from the U. S. Army Office of Research, at the college. ida. the Jacksonville Zoo. and to the historic Stone Mountain, 15 miles of Atlanta and a sight- seeing trip of Atlanta have been among the various activities on the agenda. A talent show under the direction of the special events teacher, Mrs. Martha Cassels was well received by all who were present. The Upward Bound Band under the direction of Mr. Samuel Gill presented two numbers and several students gave much indication of skills in the latest dance steps and hit tunes. A five-piece combo per- formed to the delight of the audience and Ned Williams stole the show with his magnificent portrayal of a condemned criminal nearing his execution who has slowly deterloated from mental pressures and fears. To add more life to the pro- gram, several movies have been shown including "Three Worlds of Gulliver's Travels," "The Jackie Robinson Story," "Bye- Bye Birdie" and "The Mag- nificient Obsession." Other ac- tivities included a field trip with visits to the Coast Guard Sta- tion, the Savannah Docks, Travis Air Base, The Atlantic Seaboard Shops, The Chatham County Fire Department and the City and Chatham County Jails. Much euthusiasm was shown at the track meet on July 16 and at the Student Faculty Basket- ball games the College-Upward Bound Students basketball games and on the plane trip over Chat- ham County. Making sure that no phase of life was left out in this program spiritual nourishment was in- cluded also. The Reverend P. Harold Gray of Asbury Methodist Church officiated at worship services and Dr. J. W. Wilson rendered tranquilizing organ music. Don't you agree that It's true! School can be fun! v. -- ^ ft By Charles J. Elmore From July 25. until August 5 the Third Annual Journalism Workshop was in session at Sa- vannah State College. Twenty- three teachers from seven states including Georgia attended the workshop. Seven local high school students participated in the journalism workship. The scholarships for the workshop were financed by the Wall Street Journal Newspaper Fund. Inc. and Savannah State College. Wilton C. Scott, director of the journalism workshop stated that the workshop was organized to provide school publications ad- visers with information and ex- perience pertinent to the organ- ization and publication of school media. This is the first year that college and high school stu- dents have participated in the workshop. B. Kendall Crane, director of radio station WDUQ and pro- fessor of journalism at Duquense University, Pittsburg, Penn. served as visiting professor and chief coordinator of the work- shop.

It was old when the Aryans came In from the north about 3000 B.C. and found a flourishing civilization already there. Civilizations died and were rebuilt, layer upon layer and relics and treasures from all of them are to be seen all over the land. But because of lack of enough scientific development. India did not progress much in the modern world. The Republic was proclaimed on January 26. 1950, three years after Independence, and straight way India set course towards modernization and industrializa- tion. The leader of India inde- pendence movement was Ma- hatma Gandhi. He showed his interest in religion, tradition and handicraft. Prime Minister Nehru was always more inter- ested in science, modern tech- nology and industralization. In India, perhaps as nowhere else on earth, the ancient and the modern ways of man still blend together. India wants to develop at a faster pace not to catch up with other advanced nations but to give its people the good ways to lead a good life. The motive Is not envy but the imperative need to get rid of poverty Most planning consist of application of science problems. Conse- quently and deliberately new and better techniques are introduced in the industry. Education is one of those fields in which India has made con- siderable progress since inde- pendence. Quick development of education, was one of the dreams of the leaders of the freedom struggle and when the country became free, every effort was made to make this dream come true. Education in India is primarily the responsibility of the State Governments. The Union Gov- ernment mainly concerns itself with the coordination of educa- tional facilities and determina- tion of standards in respect of higher education through the University Grants Commission. It also deals with research in scientific and technical educa- tion. Coordination in regard to elementary and secondary edu- cation is secured through all India Councils. A working partnership has been evolved between the Union and the State Governments for implementing educational development plans. During the Third plan period which ended on March 31, 1966. plan targets in respect of educa- tion were not only attained but More than 7.000 students have been helped to college educations by a program called "Dollars for Scholars." reports Reader's Di- gest.

In pri- mary education, for instance, as against the original target of a little over 15 million children, the additional enrollment in classes I-V at the end of the Third plan was 165 million. bringing the total number of school-going children in these classes to nearly 51.5 million. The total percentage of school- going children in age group 6-11 is now 78.5 against 62 8 at the end of the Second plan. For middle stage, the children in age group 11-14 the target of additional enrollment during the Third plan was 3.5 million chil- dren. But the actual target achieved is 4.3 million. The total enrollment at this stage is now 11 million. This brings the per- centage of children attending schools in the age group 11-14 to 32.4 as against 22.4 at the end of the Second plan. The increase in enrollment at the secondary stage during the Third plan has been phenomenal. At the end of the Second plan, there were a little over 3 million students in classes IX to XI. This number has risen to over 5.3 million. The total enrollment at the University stage increased from 732,000 at the end of the Second plan to about 1.2 million now. The post-independence period has witnessed a significant ex- pansion in the field of technical education. Special efforts are being made in the Fouth plan to enroll more and more boys and girls. This will bring the percent- age of school-going children in group 6-11 to 93.1. In the age group 11-14. the corresponding percentage will rise. Similarly, at the higher secondary stage also, special efforts are made to enroll more and more boys and girls. A substantial provision has been made at this stage for pro- viding vocational courses of a terminal character. The educational curriculum views physical education with as much importance as general education. Special attention is being paid to the implementa- tion of an integrated program of physical education. This pro- gram, named the National Fit- ness Corps program, consists of a basic compulsary curriculum including minimum of physical and cultural activities. In order to implement this, over 15,000 physical education teachers have already under- gone an intensive re-orientation course. There is steady progress in the fields of sports and games. Authorities are taking steps to spot sport talent at an early stage in child developing it on the right lines. Smelly Smoking StimulatesSiekness When the Surgeon General of the United States published his report on smoking last year, there was an immediate drop in cigarette sales. But people have a short memory and sales are zooming higher than ever, a record breaking 534 billion cigar- ettes were sold last year in the U S. Teen-agers particularly have increased these sales.

Dental researchers there have discovered that tooth decay is a highly contagious disease rather than a hereditary defect. At first, this may seem in- significant. However, upon closer examination, who would know- ingly destroy his ivory smile or earn himself a premature set of false teeth simply because he had been kissing the wrong girl? Dr. Doran D. Zinner, one of the researchers, confirmed that tooth decay was caused by cer- tain types of mouth bacteria. The dentist-microbiologist as- serts that these bacteria are transmitted by direct contact, using case histories of rats, hamsters and humans to prove it. A person will now need to check a prospective date's dental history as well as other vital statistics. The question arises of how this may be done without arousing suspicion. Zinner announced that the best tooth decay protection comes from the use of flourides. Here is a positive area for dis- crimination. Once a person knows where his date is from, he need merely check his pocket guide of flouridated water sup- plies in the United States. If the local supply is flouridated, then he can be sure by subtly plying her with water. Another method which might prove helpful calls for a bit of sleuthing. By staking out in the drugstore, one could take note of what kind of toothpaste she buys. With this social problem ex- posed, one can with proper pre- caution be sure before saying "Pucker up." SSC Official Criticizes Hatch's ASC Remark (Reprint from Savannah Eve- ning Press, Tuesday, July 19, 1966) A statement by a chamber of Commerce official calling for development of technical courses at Armstrong State College which would attract new indus- tries has brought criticism from the public relations director of Savannah State College. But Wilton Scott, SSC public relations director, emphasized that he was criticizing the re- mark by Chamber President Josiah Hatch "as a Chamber member and a citizen of Savan- nah" rather than in his SSC capacity. Hatch made the statement during an announcement yes- terday that dormitories which would eventually house 300 stu- dents will be built near ASC by an out-of-town firm. "Savannah State College al- ready has technical courses which could attract industry if the Chamber of Commerce would give it the same push," Scott said. SSC has a million-dollar tech- nical building, the B. F. Hubert Technical Sciences Building, which recently was dedicated by the governor, Scott said. He added that he believes it would be less expensive to expand facilities that already exist rather than develop new facili- ties. SSC has been offering degrees for approximately 15 years in courses on engineering tech- nology, building construction technology, electronic tech- Dear Aud . . . "Experiencing your dreams is more accurate than dreaming your experience" Dear Aud . . . This is a problem that I have been trying to solve for the last two years, and haven't come to a conclusion as of yet. Please help me to solve this problem. I'm in love with a forty-one year old man, and I think that he loves me also, but whenever I speak to him about marriage he always changes the subject. We have been going together for three years now, and I do want him to ask me to marry him just once without me begin- ning the conversation. Please tell me how can I get him to propose to me. Worried Dear Worried . . . This is a problem that doesn't need any solving. If this so- called forty-one year old boy friend has not proposed to you once within the three years that you have been going together he is letting you know from the beginning that he is not going to propose to you at all. Try going with a younger man whom you know loves you, not one who you think loves you and delay the conversation on mar- riage and I can assure you that you will get HIM, Dear Aud . . . There is a certain boy in my class that I love very much and have been failing in this class because of him. How can I let this boy know I love him so that I can begin to pass this subject. Don't Know Dear Don't Know . . . If you think that by letting this certain boy know that you love him will help you to pass the subject .tell him and invite him to your house so he can help you with your homework and you will have the boy as well as pass the subject. Dear Aud . . . All the young men around school seem to think that I'm the flirty type and because of this I can't seem to get a boy friend. How can I let them know that I'm not the flirty type but just the friendly type. Helpless Dear Helpless . . . Stop being friendly, stick to yourself and the first male that comes to talk to you. give him the impression that you like people and I think that he will except you as just being the friendly type and not the flirty type.

The school was founded in 1890 and has been fully accredited already by the Southern Association of Schools and Colleges, Scott said. Dear Aud . . . The boy that I'm suppose to marry has been disappointing me ever since he gave me an engagement ring. He has been promising to take me to dinner for the last two weeks and I haven't got there yet. and when I ask him about our dinner date he kisses me and says "some- ing came up." I love my hus- band-to-be very much and am trying very hard to keep our en- gagement together. Please tell me what can I do to keep him from breaking his promise and to keep our engagement to- gether. Bewildered Dear Bewildered . . . Your so-called husband is try- ing you, give him his ring back, go out with someone who can keep his promise and don't let them flatter you with kisses as if your husband-to-be has been doing. If your so-called husband doesn't move to these reactions then he is not the one you are supposed to marry. Lost Freedom lACP) For all practical pur- poses, the members of the U. S. population under 21 have lost their freedom, says the Colorado State College Mirror, Greeley. The Mirror defines freedom as Salado De Madarlage defined it: "He is free who knows how to keep in his own hands the power to decide at each step, the course of his life and who lives in a society which does not block the exercise of that power." Are the U. S. government and the mass media, inspired by the chauvinistic tensions of the American people, sacrificing the freedom of a huge portion of the younger generation? We think so. Last year the Berkeley pro- testors I Free Speech Movement) were given fines and sentences for exercising civil disobedience. The peace march on Washing- ton in December, made up mostly of students, was labeled by the mass media, carte blanche, as "fringe radicals" and "pinkos," The burning of draft cards, a symbolic gesture of disagreement with the administration's policy in Viet Nam, can now be punished by five years In prison and a $10,000 fine. The teach-in movement was effectively stifled by government charges of communist infiltra- tion and manipulation. A young Texas airman was sentenced to two years at hard labor by a military tribunal for participating In a peace march, even though he was off duty and in civilian clothes. m \)' : Spotlights On Fashion Fall '66 Campus Outfits By Margie D.

According to the designers, "the eased, unmarked waistline, the gently wider shoulder, the mobile hemline, the full coat and the longer jacket" are a must for the coming season. "Knee socks to match the en- semble, a monotone of the pale textured stockings with match- ing shoes, or tights in matching or coordinate colors follow the coordinate theme." Belts and watch bands are matching. Shoes are a definite part of the total "look," Shoes that are matched with purses are "smart" and are a complete must to com- plete the "total'' fashion picture. Skirts are being worn three or four Inches above the knee, and are being matched with co- ordinating blouses and sweaters. Coats arc being lined with bright and sometimes fur linings for that added kick. Oh, yes girls, If you are a shift lover as I am, they too are back on the scene. The continuing popular jumper is also back, which can be worn with or with- out a blouse.

But even as we prepare to gird ourselves for fhe miserable days of exams that come twice a year, there is a ray of hope for us coming from the state of Wash- ington. The University of Washington student body must have decided it was tired of being trodden upon by professors so students devised a clever means of re- taliation a mammoth book which literally tears the guts from the faculty.

Savannah State College provided an eight-week summer session during the period between June 20 and August 12 and is providing a program each Saturday during the regular school year for the participants. The one hundred students who participated in the Upward Bound project were selected from Chatham and surrounding counties. The Economic Opportunity Authority of Savannah-Chatham County Area. Inc., Chatham County Superintendent of Schools and Armstrong College. assisted in recruitment of stu- dents. The objective of the project was to institute an efficient pro- cedure among the participants for attacking, pursuing, and solving problems in the three academic fields that were planned: communication skills (reading, writing, speaking and listening ) , mathematics, and Great Issues. The co-curricular activities included field trips to Telfair Academy, the Juliette Gordon Low House, the Owens-Thomas House, a trip to Fort Pulaski and the Savannah waterfront, and a boat trip to the State Docks. Members of the faculty of Sa- vannah State College who par- ticipated in the project were: Robert Holt, English; Martha Wilson, Mathematics; Sylvia Bowens, Mathematics; Robert L. Stevenson. Drama; Whittington B. Johnson. Great Issues; Abbie Jordan, Reading; Samuel Gill. Fine Arts; and Charles Wilson, Director of Counseling and Co- Curricular Program.

CLUB & CAMPUS FASHIONS By CHIP TOLBERT ESQUIRE'S FASHION EDITOR SUMMER STANDS POISED on the edge of campus, ready to rush in and fill the void as classes, exams, and term papers come to their appointed ends. For Summer '66, your wardrobe will accent the colorful and the casual. Here are a few pointers on what to take along when you split the academic scene. BASKETBALL BEACHWEAR? why not? we already have the classic "boxer" short. This season one important swimwear trend derives from the basketball courts. The style is moder- ately trim-fitting, and its trademark is side vents. New sport-oriented color combinations take precedence: look for white cotton trunks with navy binding down the sides and around the legs; navy trunks with beige trim, and maroon trunks with navy bindings. "BY THE SEA, BY THE SEA, by the beautiful sea..." Do you re- call those colorful cardboard plaques with a cut-out hole to pop your head through to be photographed in a legitimate 1890's beach scene? Do you remember the hilarious beachwear fashions of our Victorian grandfathers? Well, modified versions of the same are back, and for sheer fun in the sun, they're unbeatable. Look for bold, striped, stretch cotton knit outfits. Shirts feature a Henley neck, while the usually matching stretch swim trunks reach half- way to your knees. Bold belt treatments, adjustable side tabs, and fully-lined shorts are all part of this "new" fashion. "Dipping, anyone?" BELTED BRIEFS, bold colors, and trim lines cut from stretch fabrics may be more to the typical college man's taste. Husky brass and silver buckles complement broader belts. Colors are hot and bright: vivid blue-green blends, vibrant reds, yellows and oranges, and an end- less variety of stripe and border treatments. C.P.O.'S FOR SUMMER. The Chief Petty Officer shirt, along with bell bottoms and the classic Navy pea jacket, are three major fashion contributions of your local Army Navy store. The pea jacket is reserved for winter wear (though its double-breasted idea carries over in many of this summer's colorful blazers I . Bell- bottoms are already a summer staple, and this season will see the C.P.O. shirt introduced for warm weather wear. Chief C.P.O. characteristics: they're blue, non-button-down, and have two flapped pockets in front. Many models feature epaulettes. Look for them in cotton, brushed denim and polyester blends in both long and short sleeved models. RAINBOWS OF COLOR mark this season's soft, cotton sweatshirts in a wide variety of styling variations. Color to your taste in peach, pink, red or coral, lime, orange, copper or bronze, burgundy, lavender, or smoky charcoal. Styles include the traditional crew neck with long sleeves, V-necks, turtlenecks and mock turtles by the score, some featuring short-sleeved styling. Boating parkas in water repellent nylon will mostly be seen in bold com- petition stripes. Hot horizontal or vertical stripes in, for ex-.mple, white, yellow or red, complement body colors in Navy, blue-green blends, and burgundy. And don't overlook bell bottoms in blue stretch denim, poplin jackets with a front zipper and a drawstring bottom, and India madras walking shorts. THE SANDS OF TIME swirl through the hourglass, and another academic year bites the dust. Now it's time for sandy beaches, skin diving, water skiing, and sailing. However you select to spend your summer leisure, make the most of it, and with luck we'll both be back next Fall with the scoop on Back-to-College fashions. See you then.

Dr. Howard Jordan, Jr., Presi- dent of Savannah State College, gave the main address at the opening se convocation, held in Wiley Gymnasium. ollc After a brief welcome to all stu- dents, President Jordan described the four major rewards for which SSC students "are eligible if you apply yourselves and work with sincerity and truth." The first reward according to Dr. Jordan is "to help you (col- lege students) develop a sound moral and social outlook which will guide your daily lives. This attitude will help you to under- stand yourself. . . . This outlook toil! also enable you to understand your place in and responsibility to a democratic society and a chang- ing world." ^TIGERS ROAR SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE SAVANNAH, GEORGIA October 18, 1966 THE TIGER'S ROAR Volume $, Number >( Noted Pianist to Appear In Meldrim Tonight Associate Professor's Science Monograph to Be Used by Catholic Schools in Four States By Charles J. Elmore Dr. Prince Jackson's Science In the Schools, a science monograph, will be used by teachers, principals, curriculum directors, and superin- tendents of all Catholic secondary and elementary schools in the states of Maine, New Hampshire, Mas- sachusetts and Rhode Island. Dr. Jackson, who is associate professor of Mathematics and Physics at Savannah State, re- ceived his B.S. degree from Sa- vannah State, cum laude. He re- ceived the masters and Ph.D. de- grees from New York University and Boston College respectively. This past summer Dr. Jackson taught modern mathematics and science at Boston College. He has also supervised candidates for the bachelor and master's degrees in mathematics and science educa- tion at Boston College. Dr. Jackson received National Science Foundation Fellowships from the following schools: Uni- versity of Kansas, Harvard Uni- versity and the University of Michigan. Dr. Jackson is a member of many professional organizations. They include the National Science Teachers Association, National Institute of Science, Georgia Teachers and Education Associa- tion, Phi Delta Kappa Education Fraternity, and the American Edu- cation Research Association. Dean of Students Cited In Magazine Nelson R. Freeman, dean of students at Savannah State Col- lege, was cited in the September edition of "Pfizer Scene," an in- ternal bulletin of Charles Pfizer and Co., Inc., for his work in a summer program sponsored by Pfizer and the Urban League. The league recruits professors and administrators from Negro colleges and universities and helps to place them in leading business and industrial firms. These sum- mer employees, working in diversi- fied fields, can give their students vital information on management's criteria for employment. In Pfizer's ease, the program provides the company with skilled employees, the college teacher with job experience, and the Negro student with much needed data. Dean Freeman was the senior member of Pfizer's three-man 1966 force composed of Dr. Frederick S. Humphries, pro- fessor of chemistry at Florida A Savannah State College Com- mittee on Campus Life presents Thomas Flagg in a Piano Concert in Meldrim Auditorium tonight at 8:15 p.m. Mr. Flagg is a noted pianist and his performances have been highly acclaimed in Washington, D. C, Bennington, Detroit, Denver, Colo- rado Springs, Winston-Salem, and numerous schools and colleges throughout the South. He is Associate Professor of Piano at Talladega College in Talladega, Alabama. More recently he devoted the year 1961-62 to intensive piano study with Irwin Freundlich, and has been under his guidance since that date. During the summer of 1%3 he held the Arthur Stein Me- morial Scholarship for study in the Master Class conducted by Mr. Freundlich on the campus of Bennington College, and was a resident there for study again dur- ing the summer of 1965. Thomas J. Flagg, a native of Memphis, Tennessee, is an honor graduate of Howard University's School of Music where he was a pupil of Charles Cecil Cohen. Subsequently he was awarded a scholarship to the Julliard School of Music, where he studied piano with Katherine Bacon, piano literature with Irwin Freundlich, and earned a Professional Diploma in Piano. He holds an M.A. degree from Columbia Uni- versity where he worked under Thomas Richner. Students of the college to be admitted upon presentation of ID cards.

Freeman spent the summer in Pfizer's New York Personnel Of- fice. He compiled information on the education background of present Pfizer employees and the specific recruiting needs of the company and correlating the data to the academic development of the entire Negro college system. Dean Freeman stated, "Pfizer is in the process of seeking out talented, competent young em- ployees and that he could play a fairly significant part in that search." Freedom of Inquiry The second reward of which Dr. Jordan spoke was the reward of the freedom of inquiry. "By freedom of inquiry, I mean you should study the ultimate ques- tions of man's nature, his worth, destiny, values and his kinship with the divine. This freedom is essential to the existence of a free society, fur without it there is no possibility of discovering the ttuth which is essential to its very existence, In our day of ferment iind doubt arising out of the clash of opposing ideas and ideals, if we do not promote freedom of in- quiry in the colleges it may die in the world. Therefore, you, as college students are encournged to look at the various sides of the problems so thai the rnnge of alternatives may be known Before conclusions are drawn. "The I bird reward which the college has for us is to provide an environment in which you can develop your leadership potential, Excellence The fourth reivard which Sa- vannah State has for you is the opportunity to achieve excellence. This is the most important reward which the college has for you. Without this reivard the other re- tvards lose some of their signifi- cance. We here at the college aim to produce individuals who seek to excel, students with high stand- ards, who are proficient in per- formance, ready and confident to take their places in the areas they may serve. Today, as never before, opportunities are unlimited for those who cun and will excel. "In just this last year a dramatic and encouraging de- velopment has occurred across the Americun scene. Jobs are opening at a more rapid rate than we are preparing persons for them. "Your success in preparing for and meeting your new opportuni- ties can be an example and an inspiration to all youth of America." / President Jordan summarized the college's rewards which "are here for students." They are, he said, "the development of a sound moral and social outlook; freedom of inquiry; development of lead- ership ability; and excellence of performance in all endeavors." In conclusion. President Jordan urged students : 'to grasp the op- portunity you have here at this fine institution of higher learning, and develop your full potentialities of mind and spirit." Regent Scholars Announced Nelson R. Freeman, director of student aide, reports that 13 stu- dents have been honored as Regent Scholars for the 1966-67 school year. The Regent Scholars are: Sandra E.

Page 2 THE TIGER'S HOAR October 18, 1966 EDITORIAL COMMENT May I Credit A Book? Several students complained to the Student Government Association about the bookstore's policy of discontinuing credit lo students. The bookstore manager states that this policy was discontinued because many students fail to take care of their financial obligations with the bookstore, after lliey are given credit. Because of this, the bookstore has lost much money. The Tiger's Roar is in agreement with the bookstore's policy. However, students tvho have jobs on campus should be allowed lo charge their books and have this charge deducted from their check. Non-working students, it seems, should be mature enough and prudent enough to know their financial obligations. But evidence re- veals that many of these students fail to meet their financial obligations even though they were able to do so at one time or another. Let's be sensible about this matter, students. Surely you don't want to graduate from Savannah Slate, leaving a bookstore debt behind, as many other alumni have done. 'Write In" Current news releases inform us that a few liberal politicians may seek the gubernatorial office through the write-in technique. Many people do not wish to east their voles for the lesser of the two evils, but they wish to exercise a franchise as U. S. citizens. In many instances this could be a matter of principles of freedom to express oneself as he or she sees fit. Surely an intelligent Negro does not wish lo cast his vote for those who are against federal guidelines. These guidelines are the basics of bringing equality to all men. not only in the deep South, but in our great nation as a whole. The Tiger's Roar, therefore, implores you to use the Write-in technique in the November general election. Not the Answer We hear it over and over the Republican plea for the voters to elect Republicans in the interest of a strong two-party system. The fact is, the Democratic Congress and President Johnson's ad- ministration have chalked up one of the greatest records of accomplish- ments in all American history. They probably have done more for the citizens of these United States than bus been done in any other two-year period. In view of that record, it seems unlikely the Republicans will win many votes with their pica for election of Republicans simply to help rebuild the Republican opposition. We, too. favor a strong two-party system. But we seriously doubt the two-party system would be strengthened through election of Republican candidates, regardless of their qualifi- cations, just to help rebuild the Republican party. We readily admit that, in our time, we have never seen a weaker Republican parly, nationwide, than it has been since the 1964 election. Bui we submit the Republican party and its leaders have brought much of their problem on themselves. The Democratic party has done its part toward maintaining a strong two-parly system. The Democratic party in Wyoming and nalionwide is very strong, indeed. We suggest it is up to the Republican party and its leaders to rebuild the GOP. They might start by coming up with forward-looking, realistic pulic :ies and programs programs designed to keep pace with our times. The voters can scarcely be expected to support backward-looking candidates and negative programs simply to help rebuild the Republican party. What is needed is a stronger GOP, made that way by strong Re- publican candidates and positive programs, to match the presently strong Democratic party. Trying to weaken the Democratic party to equalize it with the weak Republican party is not the answer. The Place Is Here By Hallow, The place to make good is where you are. The great oppor- tunity of your life lies in the situation in which you now find yourself. At heart we're all dreamers, because dreaming is much easier than doing! We love Mir to think of other places, other work, other opportunities, for "the grass is always greener in the other fellow's yard." The only sphere in which your ambition can exert momentum is here and now. The only place you can ever be is where you are. The only time you can whole-heartedly attack a job with the aims of y benjamin making yourself greater present. Until you admit that your big chance is where you are there won't be even a liltle chance any- where else. Until you settle down with the determination and initia- tive to exemplify leadership to humanity, you are just a loss to yourself and world at large. Admitting it, and practicing it, you may soon find yourself swamped with alluring offers to go elsewhere. Don't ask circum- stances to make you you make the circumstances. The Agony Of the Primary By Aiphonso Bailey The voters of Georgia in con- cert with the forces of ignorance, prejudice, hale and duplicity have elevated a man of incompetence for democratic gubernatorial nominee. The voters have nominated a man who will attempt to deny certain citizens that which is constitutionally guaranteed and morally right. This man speaks of The Roving Reporter By Halloway Benjamin What Would Happen lo Georgia's Progress If Maddox Were Elected? I think that Georgia's progress woulrl decline simply because Maddox is uneducated and prejudiced. Joyce Perry Freshman // Maddox becomes governor, Georgia would be in a state of turmoil because of Maddox' in- capabilities in the political field. Friscilla Groover Freshman Georgia has seen much progress and great development with the past administration. But if the people elect Maddox for Governor, I he future progress of Georgia would be greatly hindered from future development. Carolyn Walker Junior / don't believe that Lester Mad- dox would be a prosperous or a successful Governor of Georgia. Eugene Miller^Freshmnn I think that L. Maddox would deeply hurt Georgia's progress, especially with his idea about re- versing the federal guidelines. We need a progressive Georgia not a second Mississippi or Alabama. Diana Wyatt Freshman Lester Maddox as Governor would mean a backfire of the progress of Georgia. I think this society would again be in on how of depression, Jacquelyn Foster Sophomore I don't think Georgia will pro- gress any with Maddox as Gover- nor because be lacks the potentials of good leadership. Alvernia Smith Senior / personally don't knoiv too much about Maddox or his cre- dentials for Governor. I am an oul-of-town student. But from hearsay, I don't think too much of the idea of him even being a candidate for Governor. I imagine time will tell the story. Joseph Blakney, Jr. Senior If Maddox is elected as Gover- nor, be would set the Negroes" progress back twenty years. All because of his stupidity and ex- tremist ideals. Bernard Heard human rights as being subordinate to state rights. He has already vowed to present a bill to the state legislature de- claring "Federal Integration Guidelines" as unconstitutional if elected governor, which would precipitate a loss of Federal funds to public schools. The super conservative and segregationist has given many Georgia voters the illusion through criminal tactics be can make a mockery of law and order, as he did at his famed "Pickrick." The voters of Georgia have nominated this man because of hate for fellow Americans who pay taxes to the same federal bureaucracy. If elected the militant and verbose Lester Maddox would cer- tainly bring about political tur- moil, social unrest and racial discord. The voters must not elect a man who is the anti-thesis of in- telligence, leadership, and respon- sibility that the state's highest office warrants. When the voters frequent the polls in November they must vote against extremism. They cannot bring dishonor and disgrace to the state. It is the responsibility of every citizen who has a sense of democracy to defeat this man resoundingly. From the Editor's Desk. On behalf of the Tiger's Roar Staff. I take pride in welcoming freshmen, returning, and transfer students back to our Alma Mater. I know that many of you freshmen have found Savannah State to be quite perplexing at times and several of you are asking one basic question: "Can I make the grades to stay in school?" This is a ques- tion which you and only you can answer. Perhaps several of you have answered: "Sure I can make the grades to stay in school." But it's not that simple. Making an adjustment from high school to college life, first of all, is not a simple matter. The college orientation program reveals only part of the transition which one must make when moving from high school to a higher academic and social society. Although adjustment to a new environment is one matter which you as freshmen must confront, there still is another problem of greater importance than adjustment. This is the problem of study. After all, students very seldom fail in school because they are un- able to adjust to college life. Rather it is the grades that really count. And your study habits, in most instances, reflect your grades. Study is essential to success in college. Because many people do not know how to study, a study method is necessary. A study method, first of all. is a tailor-made system which fits the need of a student as an individual. The study method which fits one person's need might be inefficient for another. A planned schedule is essential for a good study method. The two go hand in hand. Without a time schedule you'd probably find yourself in the student center when you possibly should be reading a chapter in history. Not only is a time schedule essential for study, the place where you study is equally important. If you took your history book and sat in the lobby of a dormitory you'd soon find the atmosphere to be too clamorous, the lobby chair too comfortable, and fatigue too difficult to resist. In reiteration, success in college depends mainly on how well you study. Good study habits depend on three things: (1) a tailor-made study method; (2) a planned schedule: and (3) a proper place to study. The aforementioned points are criteria for good study habits. If you have not found an effective study method, amend this one to your own need. Good luck! Robert L. Joiner, 11 Seientism or Christian Faith By Deloris Moss This column is dedicated to entering freshmen at Savannah State College. It is written in hope that it will benefit all who read it. Most students entering college are baffled about seientism and Christian faith. Yet from our reading and research we see no reasons why we should. A recent article bad this to say: There are four words that are especially im- portant in today's world: wisdom, knowledge, science, and seientism. Give yourself a test; try to de- fine them in your mind. Can you? If you lump them all together under one roof it will lead to fuzzy thinking about each of them. What is wisdom? It's a blend of spiritual insight with common sense. Wisdom has nothing to do with formal education. A man may be illiterate and yet be wise in his dealings. Knowledge is what we acquire through experience and formal study. Wisdom is intuitive; that is. it is inward and works itself out without benefit of teaching. But, knowledge is external and must be brought into the mind. There is a body of information about a particular subject, we ob- tain knowledge of that subject by reading and studying it. As we do. we learn and acquire knowl- edge. The proper use of this knowledge depends upon wisdom, however. Now we look at science and seientism. Science is a word that comes from the Latin verb, "to know." Science is knowledge. The loose way we often use the word has made us think it applies only to such fields as chemistry, biology, and psychology. Actually, of course, these disciplines are more correctly listed under the physical sciences, the natural sciences or the social sciences. Science professes to know truth, and certain observations made by scientists have been verified and codified into laws. Pytbayoras and Euclid, Newton and Einstein, Adam Smith and Pascal were all responsible for declaring laws in their respective sciences. But their observations, and the declaration of what they had ob- served to be true, prompted other men to distort the lessons of sciences into the tyranny of seientism. Seientism is the fallacy (Continued on Page 8) HOW MUCH LONGER?

Taking this under considera- tion. I thought it might be inter- esting to know why some of the freshmen students chose to at- tend SSC to further their educa- tion. Below are the responses I re- reived on the question: Why did you choose to attend SSC to fur- ther your education? Barry Ellis: 1 looked into the academic standards of the past SSC graduates. Also I looked into the Bulletin of SSC and saw the aims of the college, and it offered what I expect to receive. Davis Braxton: Because of the expanding curriculum and because of the fact that it is becoming widely known and because of its fine Biology Department. Leroy Bolder: I chose Savan- nah State because I wanted to major in English, but I am now undecided. I am split between Sociology and English. Ruthie Mae Thompson: Because SSC's Mathematical Department is among the best in the state of Georgia. I am going to major in the field of Mathematics. Comer Mac Thompson: I be- lieve because of the recent rise in education standards SSC renders exceptional opportunities, also I appreciate the small college com- munity where just about all activities include the entire stu- dent body. Mildred Duncan: My reason for coming to SSC is to gain a better knowledge and understanding of the world in which I live, in order that I might be able to meet the challenge of the future. Harold Jackson: My reason for attending SSC is a sincere one. I feel that graduating high school students from this county should attend the college in their area. Carl R. Stewart: I had many offers from other colleges here in the South, but I chose SSC be- cause it is in my home town, and if there was any learning to be done I could do it here at SSC, and because it is just as great a school. Betty Jackson: I chose SSC for one reason, that is to further my education. This is something that one needs to cope with the many changes the world has made. Cheryl Cobharn: I chose to at- tend SSC because as an institution of higher learning, I think it is a very good one. Here at State, I think I can attain a higher edu- cation, not that I couldn't obtain it elsewhere, but I just like it here. Dear J achy e . . . "It Ain't What You Do. It's How You Do It" By Jacqueline Ryles Dear Jackye, I'm a boarding student here at SSC and from previous experi- ences, I much too often find my- self on probation. The surprising thing is. that I have never done anything really wrong just petty things. However, some of my daring dorm buddies are always into one thing or another, yet they never seem to get caught. Why do you think this is so? On Parole Dear Parole, These days, it's not ivhaf you do, it's how you do it. Bear in mind that "every dog has his day" that goes for us humans too you know. And. just as yours caught up with you their day will come. J achy e 1 >> 1 Ja< kye. T( day I had my ears pierced.

One of my friends has been going with this fellow for sometime, now the other friend has been talking to him. I don't want to lose friendship with either of the girls but how can I remain neutral with each girl telling me about the other or asking questions about the other. In the Middle Dear Middle. Don't fight it, you can't remain neutral. Either take one of their sides, or drop out oj the picture completely. I strongly suggest the latter. Jackye Dear Jackye. I am one of those persons who came to college not only for a B.S. but a Mrs. However, since I have been here. I find it difficult to tell the realist from the romanticist. Can you give me some idea of how to go about making the right decision? Hopeful Dear Hopeful, It all depends on which of the two you'd prefer. If you re seek- ing a realist follow your head; if you're searching for a romanticist follow your heart. Either way you can't win. So stop looking and before you know it you will have found hint. Good luck. Jackye Dear Jackye, I have a problem; every Mon- day for some reason or the other, I can't sleep well at night. 1 really don't understand. Can you sug- gest a remedy. "Sleepy" Dear Sleepy, I hear lullabies arc still going strong and sleeping pills are steady hanging in there, but if these at- tempts fail you'll just have to make up your mind to avoid those liquid diets (the intoxicating kinds) on Sunday nights!

'Dobie dillis," etc.) ONCE MORE UNTO THE BREACH Way back in 1953 I started writing this column about campus life. Today, a full 13 years later, I am still writing this column, for my interest in undergraduates is as keen and lively as ever. This is called "arrested development"' But where else can a writer find a subject as fascinating as the American campus? Where else are minds so nettled, bodies so roiled, psyches so unglued? Right now, for example, though the new school year has just begun, you've already encountered the following dis- asters : 1. You hate your teachers. 2. You hate your courses. 3. You hate your room-mates. 4. You have no time to study. 5. You have no place to study. Friends, let us, without despair, examine your problems one by one. 1. You hate your teachers. For shame, friends! Try looking at things their way. Take your English teacher, for instance. Here's a man who is one of the world's authorities on Robert Browning, yet he wears $30 tweeds and a pre-war necktie while his brother Sam, a high school dropout, earns 70 thou a year in aluminum siding. Is it so hard to understand why he writes "F" on top of your themes and "Eeeyich!" in the margin? Instead of hating him, should you not admire his dedication to scholarship, his disdain for the blandishments of commerce? Of course you should. You may flunk, but Pippa passes. 2. You hale your eourwes. You say, for example, that you don't see the use of studying Macbeth when you are majoring in veterinary medicine. You're wrong, friends. Believe me, some day when you are running a busy kennel, you'll be mighty glad you learned "Out, damned Spot!" 3. You hale your room-mates. This is, unquestionably, a big problem in fact, the second biggest problem on American campuses. (The first biggest, of course, is on which side of your mortar board do you dangle the tassel at Commencement?) But there is an answer to the room- mate problem: keep changing room-mates. The optimum interval, I have found, is every four hours. 4. You have no lime lo study. Friends, I'm glad to re- port there is a simple way to find extra time in your busy schedule. All you have to do is buy some Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades. Then you won't be wasting pre- cious hours hacking away with inferior blades, mangling your face again and again in a tedious, feckless effort to winnow your whiskers. Personna shaves you quickly and slickly, easily and breezily, haeklessly, scrapelessly, tug- lessly, nicklessly, scrat.chlcssly, matchlessly. Furthermore, Personna Blades last and last. Moreover, they are avail- able both in double-edge and Injector style. And, as if this weren't enough, Personna is now offering you a chance to grab a fistful of $100 bills. The Personna Super Stainless Steel Sweepstakes is off and running! You can win $10,000 and even more. Get over to your Personna dealer for de- tails and an entry blank. Don't just stand there ! 5. You have no place lo *ludy. This is a thorny one, I'll admit, what with the library so jammed and the dorms so noisy. But with a little ingenuity, you can still find a quiet, deserted spot like the ticket office of the lacrosse team. Or a testimonial dinner for the dean. Or the nearest re- cruiting station. You see, friends? When you've got a problem, don't lie down and quit. Attack!

Slater, a senior at Savannah State College majoring in Social Science attended Sum- mer School at Harvard Univer- sity, Cambridge, Massachusetts. Miss Slater was one of 105 stu- dents from selected Southern Col- leges who participated in the Harvard- Yale-Columbia Intensive Summer Studies Program. This program in keeping with the trend toward upgrading ihe quality of education is specifically designed to introduce undergraduate stu- dents to the rigors and demands of graduate study. At Harvard the students of the Intensive Summer Studies Pro- gram attended classes with other undergraduates ond graduate stu- dents from major schools in this country and from foreign lands. Courses taken by the studenls of the issp were in relationship to their specific major or interest area. Miss Slaler reports thai her courses were in hislory. Much emphasis was placed on intensive reading and effective expression through writing. The eight weeks of study proved very challenging but more important presented a wonderful opportunity to garner helpful and needed experiences for growth and intellectual de- velopment. All wns not work however, for [here were many extra curricula activities of cultural value for the student populalion of the Harvard Summer School. In addition special provisions were mode for members of the Intensive Summer Studies Program to tour ihe areas in and around Boston; attend plays at the Loeh Drama Center, and concerts ot Harvard and at Drivers Urged To Obey Rules More and more students are purchasing automobiles, it seems. Several of these motorists don't seem to know nil the rules and regulations which they should adhere to in order to provide maximum safely to pedestrians and themselves. In an interview with Captain Howard, chief of security, along with information from SSC's Student Handbook. this interviewer has come up with vital information which will help motorists exercise more caution and courtesy toward pedestrians. Captain Howard states, first of all, that all vehicles, on SSC's campus, whether or not owned by the operator, are required to possess a registration sticker. Examples of frequent offenses, according to the Student Hand- book include (1) speeding. (2) reckless driving, (3) disregarding officer's signals, (4) failure to stop at stop signs, (5) parking along yellow-painted "no park- ing" areas, )6) driving and park- ing on the grass, (7) driving in wrong direction on one-way streets, (8) passing moving cars going in the same direction, and creating disturbances by unneces- sary horn blowing. "The speed limit on campus is limited to 15 mph," states Captain Howard. "// motorists ivould give the pedestrians ihe right of way, and avoid parking in prohibited areas, there would be less offenses and fewer fines."

New Professor In Chemistry By Odessa Williams As the 1966-67 academic year begins, the chemistry department looks forward to another year of progress. The progress began with an ad- dition to the staff of able pro- fessors. Dr. Robert W. Johnson, of Jacksonville, Florida, serves as professor of chemistry. Dr. John- son received his B. S. degree from the University of Florida and his M.S. from Purdue University. He returned to the University of Florida, where he received his Ph.D. degree in 1959. Upon graduation Dr. Johnson was em- ployed as Research Chemist for Ethyl Cooperation of Baton Rouge, La where he served until 1962.

He has done additional study at the University of Michigan. A gran! to Savannah State Col- lege has made it possible for the Gordon Library to soon place paperback books in the Student Center. The selection of the titles was made by a faculty and stu- dent committee during the 1966 spring quarter. The collection of paperbacks includes well-known classics, popular fiction and non- fiction. The circulation of the books will be based on an honor system. A book card has been placed in each book. A student may check out the book by signing the card and leaving the card in the box provided. The book may be kept as long as will be necessary. When the student has finished the book or books, he is asked to return the book, replace the card, and shelve the book on the rack. It is hoped that as many stu- dents a spossible will take ad- vantage of this convenient method of becoming a well-educaled person. 7 Books in Demand at Gordon Libra* Increased awareness of the struggle which the Negro now is engaged in to attain equality is reflected in the trend of reading of Savannah State Colle^ dents. This awareness can be traced through the number of re- quests for the following titles by or about Negroes: Baldwin, James, Blues for Mister Charlie; The Fire Next Time! Going to Meet the Man; Notes of A Native Son. Bennett, Lerone, Before the Mayflower; The Negro Mood; What Manner of Man. Ginzberg, Eli, The Troublesome Presence.

Richardson The Biology Department opened its 1966-67 school year with much interest and enthusiasm. One new teacher. Dr. John B. Villella, has been added to the department. Dr. Villella has been engaged in re- search work for the Puerto Rico Nuclear Center, operated by the University of Puerto Rico, for U. S. Atomic Energy Commission. Dr. Villella is a graduate of Get- tysburg College (B.S. degree) and received the Ph.D. degree from University of Michigan, Ann Ar- bor, Michigan. Mrs. Margaret Robinson has returned to the de- partment from a two-year leave of absence to study on her doctor's degree. Mrs. Robinson has been very successful in her undertak- ings, and is now a candidate for the Ph.D. degree from Washington University, St. Louis, Missouri. Mrs. Robinson will continue her research on Savannah State Col- lege campus, made possible through the efforls of President Jordan. The addition of Dr. Villella has made it possible for the Biology Department to strengthen its cur- riculum. Two new courses are of- fered this year: Introduction to Parasitology is offered now (fall quarter) and Introduction to En- tomology will be offered during the winter quarter. These courses are strongly recommended for the study of medical science. The Biology Club met Friday, September 30 and planned its pro- gram for the year. It will sponsor two seminars a month. These seminars will make possible for students to exchange ideas on modern biological research work. Mr. Bernard L. Woodhouse is the advisor for the club. Some research work is going on in the department. This research is assisted by students. Dr. Grif- fith is doing some cytological work on avian tissue. Work on this problem occurred also during the summer quarter. Misses Cath- erine Johnson and Margaret Shin- hoster were the student assistants. Dr. Villella is organizing his work which will be announced later. Mrs. Robinson will continue her research work in the area of bot- any. We are hoping that some of the results of these research proj- ects will be ready for publication sometime during tbe year. Parks. Gordon. The Learning Tree; A Choice of Weapons.

Peace Corps Committee Makes Plans By Addie Scott The Peace Corps Committee has gotten under way initiating plans for the Peace Corps Recruiters. They will visit Savannah State's campus November 4-7. The Recruiters are from Peace Corps headquarters in Washing- ton, D. C, and their objective is to introduce to students the im- portance of the Peace Corps and what they can do to help in vari- ous areas. Here on the campus are two students that have been Peace Corps Trainees. Miss Addie Scott, Biology ma- jor, entered training last summer at the University of California at Los Angeles and Mr. Paul John- son, Music major, who was trained this summer at the University of Kentucky at Lexington. These training programs were Advance Training Programs (ATP) for College Juniors in which the students continue the training session after graduation. Below, Mr. Johnson tells of his experiences as a Peace Corps trainee. "I entered the Advance Train- ing Program (ATP) for the Peace Corps June 25, 1966 at the Uni- versity of Kentucky at Lexington. 1 was being trained for Food Pro- duction and Nutrition for India. Originally there were about sev- enty-six (76) students in the pro- gram from various universities. We received $86.00 every two weeks for living expenses. We at- tended classes from 7 :00 in the morning until 6:30 in the evening. The classes included : Language (Hindi), which lasted for 3 hours a day; Cross Culture Study, in which we studied the history of India and important topics in- volved in the United States; two hours of Technical Study, in which we discussed Food Production, and Physical Education." When asked his opinion of the Peace Corps training program and Peace Corps in general, Mr. John- son replied, "Great." Mr. Johnson plans to continue training next June; at that time he will receive the B.A. degree in Music Education.

Highlights In Business Administration It was once stated that, "The educated man is the man who has mastered the most flexible of bis tools, his own intelligence"; and if be has done that, these other and minor masteries are likely to come of their own accord, so far as he needs them. The following are showing or have shown some of the potentials of educated persons in the area of business. In recent application of their skills and knowledge these students have en- countered many wonderful and valuable experiences. Alonza K. Alston is employed by the Office of Economic Oppor- tunity with an office in Bruns- wick, Ga. He is serving as Service Center Director over five counties: They are Camden, Glynn, Mcin- tosh, Liberty and Bryan.

Mrs. Geneva Z. Booker, a past graduate, is employed with the In- ternal Revenue, Boston, Massachu- setts. Not only have our graduates encountered many wonderful and valuable experiences in the field of business, but many of our cur- rently enrolled students in busi- ness were employed during the summer and received valuable ex- perience during their vacation from school. Argene Jones, a junior, was employed by Ford Motors Cor- poration in Atlanta, Ga. Ruby Milton and Patricia Grif- fin were employed by the Atomic Energy Commission, in Jackson, South Carolina. Thelma Fortson, a junior, was employed by Royal Typewriter Alpha Phi Alpha Pledges Support To Organizations Over the past sixty years Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., has been striving to maintain and up- lift their aims of scholarship, manly deeds, and love for all man- kind.

Zeta Tells of Sorority^s < Objectives Zeta Phi Beta Sorority was organized on the campus of Howard University in Washing- ton, D. C. on January 16. 1920. At the suggestion of two members of the Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, the idea was favorably received and Arizona Cleaver. Viola Tyler, Myrtle Tyler, Pearl Neal and Fannie Pettie, of Savannah, Ga., became the first members of the sorority. We are fortunate in that all of our founders are still living and active in their chapters. The sorority has chapters throughout the United States and Africa. It has as its purpose to foster finer womanhood, sislerly love and scholarship. Each chapter has an annual celebration during February for Finer Womanhood Week. The chapters also sponsor a Blue Revue as their money- making activity. The sorority sponsors a na- tional juvenile delinquency pro- gram which is now called its Foster Home Care Program. It is a member of the National Associ- ation for the Advancement of Colored People, The American Council on Human Rights, the National Council of Negro Women. It endorses and con- tributes to the programs of the National Urban League, t h e United Negro College Fund, the Community Chest and many other funds for public welfare.

Chapters of Phi Beta Sigma are granted to educational institutions of higher learning only after the most exacting and critical exami- nation of their standards, facilities and accomplishment. Savannah State College is only one of those institutions of higher learning which have been granted chapters. As our sweetheart for the 1966- 67 school year, we have chosen Miss Margie Bryant, a junior from Savannah, majoring in English. Dr. John L. Wilson, head of the Department of Secondary Educa- tion, is our advisor. We hope that this year will be prosperous to every member of the Savannah Slate College Family. Swingline Pigments 1 1 1 Do they have a 4th of July in England? below) This is the Savannah State Is One of the Few By Tommy Glass Savannah State College is one of the few Colleges in the Southeast which offers degree courses in engineering technology and related courses. The Division of Technical Sciences under the direction of Dr. Clyde W. Hall offers courses in Building Construction Tech- nology, Electronics Technology, Industrial Education. Mechanical Technology and Trade and Indus- trial Education. These curricula are designed to meet the technological demands of the space age which have forced a reappraisal of industrial processes and the reorganization of educational preparatory pro- grams. The engineering technician has been created by these technological charges. He is a semi-professional specialist who now performs tasks which were done yesterday by pro- fessional engineers.

In order to provide the most authentic and authoritative answers to that question, ESQUIRE inaugu- rated its "Best Dressed Man On Campus" con- tests Inst fall in conjunction with the school papers at ten of the nation's leading universi- ties. In short order, the official Nomination Ballots began to flood back to ESQUIRE's Fnsbion Department. The flood of ballots be- came an avalanche. 4,000 were received from one university alone, and the grand total by the cut-off dute exceeded 30,000 ballots [ THE FUNCTION OF THE BOARD was to help ESQUIRE's Fashion Editors determine which of the fashions leading American manu- facturers were previewing to the industry would become an in- tegral part of the campus fashion scene this fall. Thus, in March, the ten winning Board Members were invited to New York City as ESQUIRE's guests to participate in ESQUIRE's Third Annual Back-to-College FASHION FORUM which was held at the Plaza Hotel for more than 500 of the nation's -leading men's apparel retailers. BUT THAT'S JUST THE BEGINNING! in the months that mu.w. we'll discuss in detail the apparel choices of ESQUIRE's 19GG College Advisory Bonrd. Already, many of these items are appear- ing on campuses across the country, and, as fond memories of summer 'G6 fade out, and the crisp autumn weather comes on, they'll become the mainstays for the alert college man who cares about the portrait his personal apparel presents.

Scieiitism (Continued from Page 2) that says. "No truth exists unless it has been proven by scientific methods." Scientism disavows the possibility of the supernatural be- cause it can't be proved. Scientism disbelieves in the teaching of absolutes because such teaching is only a matter of opinion. In an era that glorified the dis- play of intellect as much at least, as ours: Paul told young Timothy to "keep that which is committed to thy trust avoiding opposi- tions of science falsely so called." (I Tim. 6:20). Notice that Paul did not warn Timothy to steer clear of wisdom, knowledge, or science. No Christian needs to fear science, for science is only man's statement of God's Truth about the universe as man has perceived it. But "science falsely so called" denies the God of the universe shun it. The opposite of scientism is faith, "the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" (Heb. 11:1). Faith does not require an absence of wisdom, it does not demand an ignorance of knowledge; it does not reject the findings of science. But faith refuses to yield to sclent ism's edict that only what is seen is real in this world. Instead faith declares. "Through faith we un- derstand that the worlds were framed by the word of God. so that things which do appear" (Heb. 11:3). I u place of scientism's bleak offerings, faith delivers the ulti- mate gift which Paul called "the depth of the riches both of the wisdom ami knowledge of God." I Rom. 11:3). What more can one ask for than to share by faith in the told wisdom and knowledge of God whose words "framed the worlds"? SSC Halted 50-9 By Alabama A&M In the first quarter Alabama A&M kicked off to Savannah State. The bail was returned to the 35 yard line. The Bulldogs of A&M capped the first of two scoring drives with a jump pass from Quarterback Ornee Jackson to end Thomas Jones. This drive was highlighted by an 18 yard pickup by left halfback James Witherspoon and a 20 yard pass reception by Thomas Jones. The Alabama A&M Bulldogs struck again with 8 minutes left in the first quarter when quarterback Ornee Jackson threw a 70 yard bomb to his left end, Joe Jennings. The attempt at the 2 point con- version was no good. This made the score 12-0 in favor of Ala. A&M. The Tigers of Savannah State were not to be denied. They re- covered a fumble on Ala. A&M's 15 yard line. From that point Carlos Westmore, tailback, took a handoff from quarterback Vaughn Ford and ran 15 yards for the touchdown to make the score 12-6. In the 3rd quarter Maurice Coleman, left halfback, went 35 yards for the score after taking a handoff from his quarterback, Ronald Sales, to make the score 34-9. Joe Jennings intercepted a stray aerial and ran it back for 70 yards for the score. The two point con- version made the score 42-9. The third quarter ended with the score 42-9. Bernard Corbin intercepted two passes. A 15 yard pass from Sales to left end Lawrence Williams set up a 30 yard scoring pass from quarterback Ronald Sales to his right end. Joe Reid. The two point conversion made the score 50-9. An intercepted pass by end Joe Jennings ended the game. Livingstone Rolls Over SSC 40-0 The Livingstone Bears rode the pinpoint passing of quarterback Alfred Taylor to a convincing 40-0 victory over Savannah State. Livingstone went into the dress- ing room with a 13-0 at halftime. In the first quarter Tyler culminated a long drive by sneak- ing in the end zone from a few yards out for the first score of the game. Then he passed to his end Pete Gibson for the two point conversion. Tyler threw three touchdown passes covering 74, 10, and 2 yards in the third quarter to put the game out of the Tiger's reach. Sam Crosby, reserve quarterback, continued the scoring barrage, hitting Romus Jeffrey with a nine yard strike. Savannah State's offense never leached high gear and as a result they had to rely on their defense most of the game. Serious miscues were costly for the Tigers, causing them to give up the ball three times on inter- ceptions and once on a fumble. Defensive halfbacks, Harold Singleton and Henry Betts were standouts for State on defense. If it were not for a disastrous 21 point third quarter the Tigers may have made a game of it. Library Staff Makes Effort to Provide Excellent Service The Savannah State College Library Staff is making every effort to provide excellent library service to the college community. With our present budget the library book collection is ex- pected to pass the 6O.000 volume mark. Presently, in the collection there are 57,667 volumes. Our goal is to add 10,000 volumes to the above number per year for the next two years. Our periodical collection is rapidly being developed into* one of the finest in this area. Where there were gaps in certain titles, these are being filled by the acquisition of materials on micro- film and in book form. To the library staff this represents quite an achievement for much infor- mation which later appears in books, first appears in the periodical literature. This is especially true in the field of science. The library staff is also proud of the recent acquisition of micro-card materials. The library program for the academic year is one of service to the entire college com- munity. All efforts of every mem- ber of the staff will be geared to- ward making the library a very integral part of the Savannah State College program. We anticipate, at this time, con- tinuing the Great Books Dis- cussion Group. This kind of dialogue between student, faculty member and local citizen con- tributes to the intellectual develop- ment of the academic community. A very special educational fea- ture of the Savannah State Col- lege, the Library Lecture Series, will again be under the auspices of the library. We have com- municated with several eminent scholars and will announce later who our first Lecture Series speaker will be. The lectures are designed to bring our students, faculty, and townspeople into con- tact with outstanding scholars in every field. From such contacts, it is hoped that everyone will benefit intellectually. The library will bring to the campus paintings and exhibits of persons, events, and places of interest. The children's story hour is again held on Thursday after- noons in the library. This is an effort on the part of the college to stimulate reading, to cultivate a love for books, and to develop the habit of using the library regularly by young people. This effort is necessary because circumstances have not made us library minded or library users. We welcome this opportunity to serve the children of our community in an effort to make them better readers. Coast Guard Academy Accepting Applications The The United States Coast Guard has announced that applica- tions are currently being accepted for admisstance to the next sum- mer's class of the U. S.

Savannah State To Hold One Day Conference On Sources Of Finance For Small Business A one day conference will be held at Savannah State College on Thursday. November 17, 1966, inviting businessmen from Chat- ham County and its environs to participate in a Conference on Sources of Finance for Small Businesses. Because of the visual- ized significance of this confer- ence, however, invitations for participation will cover a broader geographic area. The major emphasis will be placed upon sources of financing available from governmental sources. Because of the inter- relationship of many governmental and private financing programs, the conference will have indicated a need for a conference of this nature. This conference will be directed toward filling this visual- ized need. The conference will be directed toward equity financing, long-term borrowing and borrowing for working capital. Other aspects of financing may be included, de- pending upon the findings brought out through a telephone sampling of local businessmen (which is now being conducted). Business- men are encouraged to make known any areas of specific fi- nancial interest. In order to register their interest, interested persons may write or call: Hayward S. Anderson, Chair- man, Division of Business Ad- ministration, Savannah State, Col- lege, Savannah, Georgia 3 1404. Telephone: 354-5717, Ext. 211. There will be four periods of one and one-half hours each de- voted to eight panel discussions. During the conference, two panels, treating a different aspect of the subject, will be held concurrently, thus permitting members to alter- nate between sessions or to follow an area of their specific interest. These panels will consist of three panelists and a moderator. Prospected sources of panelists: Approximately 80 per cent from federal governmental agencies. Approximately 20 per cent from private industry.

This was learned when three students and Wilton C. Scott at- tended SUSGA's annual publica- tions conference at the University of South Carolina, October 14-15. Charles Elmore and Robert Joiner participated in newspaper clinics and discussed "the role of the college newspaper," and the "college newsaper relations with administration, students and public." Johnny Davis, editor-in-chief of the Tiger, participated in a year- book clinic. Here, Davis, along with other yearbook editors dis- cussed "content of the yearbook, changing or static." After several swap sessions. Joiner, Elmore, and Davis, along with Wilton C. Scott, attended a banquet sponsored by SUSGA. W. D. Workman, Jr., Editor of The State, South Carolina's largest newspaper, was t h e banquet speaker. Other schools of Georgia who are SUSGA members include: Georgia Tech, Georgia State, Oglethorpe College. West Georgia College, and the University of Georgia. Alderman Places 8th Out of 65 William Alderman, distance runner of Savannah Stale Col- lege's track team, placed eighth out of sixty-five when he partici- pated in a cross country distance run held at Georgia State College, Atlanta, Georgia, last Saturday. Alderman was timed at 24.21. N.A.I.A. record is 20.22.7. Among the 13 colleges partici- pating in the meet were: Georgia Tech, Georgia State, University of Georgia, Emory University, West Georgia College and Savannah State College. Alderman is a junior physical education major. The game will begin at 2:00 p.m. at Grayson Stadium. Here the Tigers and Fort Valley Tiger's will fight for victory. During the half time, addresses will be made by Miss SSC, the President and Miss Fort Valley State. The Marching Tigers will also perform. The annual homecoming dance will climax the homecoming ac- tivities. The dame will begin at 8:00 p.m. in Wilcox Gymnasium. The affair will be semi-formal.

SSC Voted Into CEEB Savnunah State College was voted into membership yesterday at the annual two-day meeling of the College Entrance Examination Board and the College Scholar- ship Service in New York, Twenty- five southern colleges and univer- sities and 1H secondary schools were added. This election boosts southern membership in the College Board to 167 colleges and universities and 41 secondary schools. Representatives of the Board also voted for the first time in the organization's history to approve permanent associalional member- ship for 35 of the Tuition's largest urban school systems, including New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Houston, Atlanta, the Stale De- partment of Education in Hawaii, and the Department of Education in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Membership of these systems will enable them to participate directly in the development and operation of the Board's programs and services. The College Board is a national membership association of 707 public and independent colleges arid universities, 232 secondary schools, and 8H associations, with headquarters in New York City. It was founded in 1900 by school and college leaders who recog- nized the need for an association which could provide direction, co- ordination, and research in aiding the transition of students from secondary school to college. During the meetings at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, more than 1,000 college administrators and secondary school officials dis- cussed issues and problems relevant to student movement into college. Principal addresses were delivered by the president of the Board, Richard Pearson, and Jarnes A. Perkins, president of Cornell University. At a Tuesday night (October 25) banquet session, Mr. Perkins urged college and university representatives to do a more effec- tive job of describing their in- stitutions to prospective students, and at the same time to consider ways of helping students gain a more accurate understanding of their own abilities and interests. He said that colleges and uni- versities have a responsibility to report more fully to students on the results and meanings of apti- tude and achievement tests that they have taken. "The average student is tested and retested throughout his aca- demic career," Mr. Perkins said, "but he is rarely given any direct and specific instructions about the implications of his marks or test scores for his work and goals." At the point of admission to college, student and institution are often involved in a game of blind- man's bluff, Mr. Perkins noted, with neither party having suffici- ent information about the other to make an intelligent and successful choice. He also advocated the devising of tests to help measure non-intellective factors. Richard Pearson, in his annual (Continued on Page 5) AH.

The study entitled "Investment and Implementation," tells what's happened to the master plan for improving Georgia's public schools as recommended by the Governor's Commission to Improve Education in the summer of 1963. It was presented to Governor Carl Sanders Friday morning by Joseph A. Whittle of Brunswick, Chairman of the Council, a State agency for planning and research on all levels of public education. The report will also be given to legislators and educators attending the 1966 Governor's Conference on Education. Prepared by Dr. Edmund C. Martin and Dr. Charles E. Hopkins of the Council staff, the report takes each recommendaiton of the Com- mission affecting elementary, secondary and higher public education and pinpoints its current status and future plans. "Substantial implementation" is reported in such areas as school financing, teacher salary increases, enlarging the size of schools and improving the quality of education on all levels. Other suggestions of the Commission, a respected group of edu- cators and lay leaders chaired by Governor Carl Sanders, are clearly labeled "no progress," with explanations of why not and estimates of when action is expected. School financing has made dramatic progress, the study shows. The Commission recommended a tripling of school funds by the mid 19770's. If funds continue to increase at their present rate of about $40 million a year, Georgia will reach at least the mid-point of the Commission's long-range goal. The fact that Georgia is currently putting 58 percent of its budget into education is another hopeful sign. Past progress in school financing also looks good. Funds from all sources (local, state and federal! for elementary and secondary schools increased from S62 million to S386 million or 527 percent over the past 20 years. College funds jumped from $16 million lo S112 million or 500 percent in the same period. Progress has been made in increasing local support of schools, the study shows. State Senate Bill 180, passed in 1964, made possible better budgeting, reporting and auditing procedures on the local school level, and "gave adequate control to the State Board of Education." the study reports. The State Board also has more accurate information on the local school's ability to support itself through new legislation which provides that: "The State Auditor shall provide such information to the State Board of Education each year based on an equalized, adjusted school property tax digest for each county and each independent school system. . . ." Several Constitutional revisions are needed to fulfill other Com- mission recommendations in the financing field, the study reports. They involve removing the limit on local school bond issues; removing property tax limitations for support of public education; and doing away with exemptions on any property from ad valorem taxes for school purposes. Teachers' salaries in Georgia are making progress as well. The Commission suggested that the state catch up with salaries in neighbor- ing states and equal or exceed the national average "within a reason- able number of years. This is being done according to the study. The average Georgia teacher's salary was increased $1500 from 1962-63 to 1966-67. The average Georgia salary increase was $300 for 1965-66 over the previous year, compared with $132 for North Carolina. $295 for Florida and $271 for the nation as a whole. The current rate of increase "may allow Ceorgia to catch up with North Carolina but will not close the gap between Georgia and Florida " the Council reports, and beginning salaries in Alabama arc currently higher than those in Georgia. A $5,200 base pay for new teachers with a four-year professional certificate will go into effect in 1967-68. A change from across-the- board raises for teachers to an index salary scale has also been initiated. Much has been accomplished in university faculty salaries, the "great need in the University System," as the Commission sees it. The 1964-65 slate budget included faculty raises averaging 12 percent. J hey will go up another 5 percent in 1965-66 and 7.5 percent in 1966-67. "Even with the mentioned increases, faculty salaries for the Uni- versity System are still at approximately the national average." The Council reports this is far short of reaching the third quartile recom- mended by the Commissoin. The school merger problem is also improving. A major recom- mendation of the Governor's Commission was for "fairly large" school You and Yonr Fellow Men By Deloris Moss As college students we meet people from nearly every walk of life. We have to live and work with people, therefore, you and your fellow men are important to each other. As Christians we can't sit high and feel we are above all others when we are here together. This constitutes a good Christian. A recent article in Christian Living has this to sav about you and your fellow men: "The trouble with some of you Christians is that you're so heavenly minded you're no earthly good." This accusa- ^H true. We must remember both ^B of the great ^m-\JF ' o m m n d - ^-^L ments: to love ^^^^^^^^ ^^ I hearts, and to love our neigh- Deloris Moss bor as ourself. This is because we have made a religion of Christianity instead of taking it into the mainstream of life as Christ did when He was here upon earth. What makes us think He wants us to retreat into our cloistered circles and let the rest of the world go by? Shame on us for leaving the sick and the suffering of this world to be cared for by non- Christians. In a sense we have been partially guilty of the rise of another of the false gods of our day, and it is the most popular of them all. Secular humanism is the exag- gerated emphasis upon mankind. It becomes the worst kind of idolatry self-worship. It would dethrone God by pushing man into first place. We only stir up a hornet's nest when we pull down idols without putting something better in their place. Christian humanism is the only thing that can defeat secular humanism. But it will take all the grace of God we can put to work. And WORK is the key word here.

If we are to realize Presi- dent Johnson's dream of the Great Society, we must re-elect those Democratic Congressmen and Senators who provided the margin of votes needed to pass the first bill to aid primary and secondary education, to enact the long-stalled Medicare legislation and to en- sure a strong Voting Rights Law."

Calling upon the College Young Democrats to assist in registering new voters, Bailey continued : "Most states allow students to vote by absentee ballot if they will be away from their place of residence on election day." Wagner said that the organi- zation has member clubs on 700 campuses in all 50 states and the District of Columbia and has already initiated a drive on local campuses to register new voters and help students vote by absentee ballot. He warned, however, that many states have early deadlines for registering and applying for absentee ballots and urged that students act immediately. Coast Guard Invites College Seniors to Apply For OCS Washington, D. C. College seniors or graduates can fulfill their military obligation as of- ficers in the U. S. Coast Guard. Qualified applicants are notified of selection for Officer Candidate School before they enlist. OCS classes convene in Septem- ber and February at the Coast Guard Reserve Training Center in historic Yorktown. Virginia. There the carefully selected college graduates receive 17 weeks of in- tensive, highly specialized train- ing. Upon graduation they are commissioned as ensigns in the Coast Guard Reserve and serve on active duty for three years. Those qualified may be offered flight training. Coast Guard officers receive the same pay and benefits as officers of other Armed Forces. Included are 30 days of annual leave and free medical and dental care. Peacetime duties of the Coast Guard include law enforcement, search and rescue, oceanographic research, marine safety, and the maintenance of aids to navigation. Information on the U. S.

The Standards Committee Report adopted by the State Board of Education last spring "will provide some impetus toward achieving ^is recommendation," the report says. The Board has endorsed the Peabody-McClurkin report which set guidelines for the minimum size of school units and has urged the General Assembly to approve legis- lation to implement this recommendation. Strides in graduate school education are also noted in the report, one of the Commission's top priorities. Graduate school enrollment in state institutions increased over 1,000 students in the past school year, from 3,151 to 4,171; and the number of doctor's degrees awarded also rose substantially. State funds for research in the higher institutions have doubled from 1962-63 to 1966-67, increasing from S4.4 million to S9 million. The fields of long-range planning and educational research have . been implemented concretely. The Council itself was created by the for General Assembly in 1964 as a continuing agency for study and long- range planning on all levels of public education.

Now we are engaged in a Great Society (oops, I mean a Great Civil War), and for that matter have been engaged in that Great Civil War for four score and seven years now, testing whether that concept of a permanent Amer- ican military presence in Asia or any concept so ill-conceived and so ineptly executed, can long endure. We are met on a great battle- field of that war, a battlefield where General Ky was overthrown by General Hee, where General Hee was overthrown by General Me, where General Me was over- thrown by General Wee, where General Wee was overthrown by- General Gee, and so forth through the 56 different coups that finally culminated last spring in General Flea's government, which we are now convinced is in a position to bring to this nation the political stability that is so necessary if we are to begin to effectively roll back the aggression from the north. Excuse me, folks, I just received an urgent note. (Oh no, not again.) Hrrumph.

By Walker Durham To the men students of SSC, you had better be careful. The women are talking about you all over town. I know that now you are wondering what they could possibly say about you. Well fellows, its very simple, they are talking about your manners. Most young men don't know if they have bad manners or good manners. If he has bad manners and don't know it. then he pays the price of being the subject of a "Boy With Bad Manners" discus- sion. And you better believe it girls do talk about these things. You might want to know what do you mean by good manners? Ac- cording to tlie women, little things like: openings doors for them, not letting them slam in their faces, picking up books, papers, and other things that they may drop, helping them with heavy packages, and most of all letting them have a seat when they are standing and you are sitting. On the buses of all places. Some just won't get up and let a lady sit down. "And to think they are college men." One young lady said, "It gives one a funny feeling to be on a bus where there are men sitting and women standing. If they were high school boys, you might could see it, be- cause they are not as cultivated as college men. But its getting to the place where its hard to tell which is which. You would think that they would give an older lady a seat, but no. this never happens either." In the event that you fellows are wondering how I got this information, well just like I said, the women are talking. I just happened to be in on a dis- cussion.

By Patricia Davidson Mary received her high school diploma on the 29th of May, 1%6. She thought that day would never come, but at last it did. "Oh my ! " she thought, "in three months I will be 18 years old and I will be on my own," at least she thought she would be, "now I can get a job." Mary was a very smart and in- telligent girl, but deep down in, she really didn't know what she wanted to do, or be in life. All she thought of now was working and making money to spend as she pleased. Sure she wanted to go to college, but now she hadn't the least thought about it. She did apply to three different colleges and was accepted by all three by the first of August, 1%6. She really didn't have anything to worry about. She graduated with high honors, had a pleasing personality, she participated in various activities at her former school and on top of all those. she was voted queen of her school. So you see Mary X really had it made. During the summer, she worked as a secretary, making very good money. At first she thought that was all to life, but on top of all of that, she was not really satis- fied. The decision was made about college when Mary X was talking Lo the Dean of Faculty at Howard University. Mary met the Dean of Faculty at Temple University in Philadelphia where she was work- ing during the summer. She had a very serious talk with him, he really convinced her that getting a college education was the right thing to do. Mary X was very happy she got to meet the Dean of Faculty of Howard University. That was what she really needed, just a little push. The decision was final in her mind, "College is for me!" Mary began to do more serious thinking about college day after day. In her mind she was saying, "College is my next step; I did enjoy working, making and spend- ing money, but I know I will en- joy college better. College is the biggest part of education. When I finish college and get a B.S. or B.A. in whatever course I take. (Ccmlinued on Page S) Fashion Parade Juanita Wright By Juanita Wright New things are happening in Make-up.

If you follow through with the simple hints given, your make-up will not only reflect you. but a beautiful you. So, ladies let your make-up be a helper, not a cover- up. ^ *} %> 2$> On Campus (By the anther ofllalhj Itowul the Ftng, Boys! "Dobie Gillis," elc.) with MaxShulman "M" IS FOR THE MANY THINGS YOULL TEACH HER Nobody will dispute-surely not I-that raising children is a task which requires full time and awesome skills. Nonetheless, a recent nationwide survey has revealed a startling fact: mothers who go back to work after their children are safely through the early years are notably happier, better adjusted, and more fulfilled than mothers who simply remain housewives. Moreover-and mark this well the children of such working mothers are themselves happier, better adjusted, and more fulfilled! All very well, you say, but what's it got to do with you ? Isn't it obvious? If you are underachieving at college, get your mother a job. What kind of job? Well sir, your mother is probably between 35 and 50 years of age, so certnin occupations must immediately be ruled out. Logging, for example. Or whaling. Orcarhopping. But don't despair. There are other kinds of jobs-not many, to be sure, hut some. However, you must not stick Mom in just any old job. You must remember that after the excitement of raising you, she would be bored to tears as a file clerk, for instance, or as a dolman. ( A dolman, as we all know, is someone who brings handfula of water to track layers. With the recent invention of the pail, dolmen are gradually falling into technological unemployment.) But I digress. I was saying, find Mom a job worthy of her talents, something challenging that uses her vast wis- dom and experience but, at the same time, is not too hard on her obsolescing tissues. That's what Walter Sigafoos did, and the results were brilliantly successful. Walter, a sophomore at the Upper Maryland College of Wickerwork and Belles Lettres, majoring in raffia, ap- proached the problem scientifically. First he asked himself what his mother did best. Well sir, what she did best was to keep hollering, "Dress warm, Walter!" At first glance this seemed a skill not widely in demand, but Walter was not discouraged. He sent out hundreds of inquiries and today, 1 am pleased to report, his mother is happily employed as wardrobe mistress for the Montreal Canadiens. Another fortunate venture was that of Frank C. Grans- mire, a junior at the Oregon State Conservatory of Music and Optometry, majoring in sties. Frank, like Walter, did a survey in depth of his mother's talents. Chief among them, he found, was her ability to make a roast of beef feed the whole family for three days. So, naturally, Frank got her a job at the Museum of Natural History. What has one to do with the other, you ask? Isn't it obvious? Anyone who can stretch ribs like that belongs in aleontology. I cannot conclude this column without saying a few words about Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades. The reason 1 cannot is that this column is sponsored by the makers of Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades, and they are inclined to get peckish if I omit to mention their product. Not, mind you, that it is a chore for me to plug Personna. Or, for the matter of that, to shave with Personna. No sir: no chore. Personna takes the pain out of shaving, scraps the scrape, negates the nick, repudiates the rasp, peels the pull, boycotts the burn, blackballs the bite, ousts the ouch. Furthermore, Personna endures and abides, gives you luxury shave after luxury shave, day after day after day. And further furthermore, Personna is available both in double-edge style and Injector style. And as if all this were not bounty enough, Personna is now offering you a chance to grab a fistful of $100 bills!

Scientists at Yellowstone Na- tional Park are using radio trans- mitters to uncover some of the mysteries surrounding the hiber- nating habits of grizzly bears. After being trapped and anesthet- ized, the bears are fitted with collars carrying the tiny trans- mitters, according to an October Reader's Digest article. Signals picked up from the transmitters have revealed such information as how far the bears travel for the winter-long naps, what types of sleeping quarters they favor, and how they know when it's time to go to bed. You'll be able to wash woolens without shrinking them, according to the October Reader's Digest. This fall scores of machine-wash- able wool items are available, many for the first time ever. Startling discoveries about the oceon floor are being made by new underwater devices. The October Reader's Digest says that the devices have revealed under- water terrain far more rugged than that above sea level with mountains much higher than those above-ground thrusting their way from the ocean floor, and under- water continents cut by canyons bigger than the Grand Canyon.

College Chapter of NAACP Is On the Go The College Chapter of NAACP had six representatives to attend the 25th annual Georgia State Convention, which convened in Decatur, Ga. They were Miss Marva DeLoach. Miss Francennua Stephens. Miss Loretta Stephens. Mr. Henry Simmons, Mr. James Sapp and Mr. Ithamas Studgeon and Mr. Dave Roberts, the advisor. THREE-DAY CONVENTION At the three-day convention they attended several workshops on minimum wages, guidelines and others. Mrs. Ruby Martin, of the Department of H.E.W.. showed us that Washington is not a rosy looking mirror that every one looks through. We were encouraged to write our Congressman and Representa- tives to get them to press forth the important issues. For we in the Civil Rights Movement and other groups are not moving fast enough, for when an issue is be- fore the house the people that oppose it. are the ones that write our Representatives and they only speak for them for they have proof of that by the letters. So Fellow Students let's start now writing our Congressman and Representatives concerning im- portant issues and encourage other friends to do likewise. Other discussions were on job and op- portunities. On Friday night Bobby Hill spoke to us on values and putting forth our best issues and stop talking and not doing. Mr. Studgeon, President. Saturday night Mr. E. J. Josey was awarded a trophy from the youth of the Georgia State Con- vention, by I. Studgeon. for his dedication and efficient service as co-youth advisor. Mr. Josey was made an honorary member. On Saturday the Georgia State Youth elected new officers for the year 1966-67, and we at State are proud that SSC Chapter is the recipient of the following state officers. Ithamas Studgeon, State president; Marva DeLoach, first vice president; Loretta Stephens, secretary; James Sapp III. parlia- mentarian. On Sunday Mr. Roy Wilkins, the Executive Secretary, spoke to the group. He spoke from several points. First he stressed the need of membership and money, for without membership there is no organization. A reporter met Mr. Wilkins at the air port and asked him "If Lester Maddox is elected, what will happen to the NAACP." Wilkins said it will be here when he's gone, unquote. He spoke on the write-in but first he made it clear that the NAACP is a non-partisan organ- ization. But you know who to vote for you can go and write in Ellis Arnall and look the records over. Lester Maddox is a drop out, if he is elected for Governor, what can you say to a drop out. for he can say my Governor is a drop out. YOU DO HAVE A CHOICE! Join the thousands of aroused Georgians who on Nov. 8 will vote for Self Respect, they will write-in Ellis Arnall. How did it begin? Well three people, who decided they could not vote for Lester Maddox or Howard "Bo" Callaway, sparked a write-in movement that blazes across Georgia today. No blocs, no fiction. People are at work not political machines. This is a genuine grass roots machine for self respecting Georgians who want to vote proudly on Nov. 8.

The Beatles Versus God: Religion Hippy-Style By Meredith Eiker The Collegiate Press Service The period of public mourning over the death of God seems to have passed; n big thing in re- ligious symbols is now a Yellow Submarine, the Holy Trinity has become a quartet, and the Alleluia Chorus requires an electric guitar. Needless to say this is the Year of Our Lord 1966, B.C. B.C. being, of course, Bcatle Century. The Western world is hearing the first cries of worship this week: "John not Jesus." And as is true of most deities, the popularity of the current idols is suddenly du- bious. Obviously when John Lennon the Beatle silting highest on Mount Olympus announced some weeks ago that "the Beatles are more popular than Jesus," he undoubt- edly thought that he was merely stating fuel. It seems, however, that at that point he had initialed n cult. Long worshipped hut never of- ficially sanctified, the Beatles be- gan somewhat unobtrusively in a place called the Cavern in Liver- pool, England. The whole set-up was not much unlike the manger scene where Christ made his first appearance 2,000 years before. People came and kind of stared both at the infant Christ and later at the singers. Other similarities cannot be eas- ily overlooked either. Both Christ and the Beatles were fated for des- tinies with the stars, both per- formed miracles I the Beatles being able to tin ii docile, apathetic, teen- age girls into screaming beasts), both experienced surging popular- ity and large fallowings only to find themselves eventually called blasphemers. Both Christ and the Beatles knew they were doomed . . , rock and roll and religion are fickle. The Beatles have been waiting for "their downfall" for several months now. Both have witnessed angry mobs. It may not be long before fanatics are throwing rocks at the Beatles instead of kisses.

Fight, Fight, TIGERS! CEEB (Continued from Page I) address to the membership Wednesday morning ( October 26), predicted a broad expansion of opportunities in higher educa- tion within the next decade, and asserted his belief that all young Americans had "the right to full- time formal education through at least two years beyond high school." He said further that "all gradu- ates of two-year colleges in uni- versity-parallel programs should expect admission to a four-year institution, and that every other individual regardless of age should have opportunities to demonstrate through independent study or other off-campus learning experi- ences that he is qualified for formal study at the collegiate level." Mr. Pearson stated that in order to achieve the nationally-accepted goal of improving and extending access to higher education, the College Board membership would have to work closely and actively with other groups and organiza- tions to help break down some of the economic, social, and geo- graphic barriers that stand in the way. He cited the need for better and earlier guidance in the schools, and for new and different tests that would do an improved job of identifying the especially ai>le as well as the disadvantaged.

Elijah Nevett took a handoff from quar- lerback Ronald Mclllwayne and ripped off 15 yards to make the score 6-0. The two point con- version failed. The Panthers chalked up 14 points in the second quarter on an eight yard rollout by Mclllwayne and a touchdown pass covering 15 yards to halfback Waymon Docks. The Panthers took a 20-0 halftime lead into the dressing room. At the beginning of the second half. Felix Bell cranked up his air arm and rifled an 11 yard scoring strike to end Terry Leggett to put the Tigers on the scoreboard. Clark roared back on the ensuing kickoff when Waymon Docks ex- ploded up the sidelines for 80 yards and another tally. The Tigers scored twelve points in the last quarter. Quarterback Felix Bell threw a 23 yard scoring aerial to Leggett for one score and a 25 vard pass and run play from Bell to end James Evans, who pitched out to tailback Louis Witherspoon. accounted for the last six points of the game. 'Batman" is encountering un- expected enemies. According lo the November Reader's Digest, the Soviet newspaper Pravda has charged that the popular TV hero contributes to a "warlike" 1 atmos- phere in the United States. In the opinion of the Red mouthpiece. Batman serves as a stimulus to make Americans more eager to act as "murderers" in Vietnam. \ m ~rj is*i*j-a . *. >!:;--.. - i * / i )q| km 0^10Umi First row (left to right): Earl Brown, Steven Kelly, William Gaulden, David Roberson.

What's The Happiest Sound In Pro Football? Two Clark Panthers block end, James Evans out of the pla The happiest sound in pro- fessional football these days is not the roar of the crowd but the ring of the cash-register. After 30 years of instability, the play-for- pay game lias hit the financial big time, with an annual take for the two major leagues of more than S65 million, a November Reader's Digest article notes. Although the box office is still the prime source of revenue, in- creasing millions are pouring into league coffers from such "fringe" areas as television, hot dog sales, endorsements, licensing fees and programs. The top-notch team in both leagues, the National Football League' Cleveland Browns last year averaged 79,611 paying fans at each home game, reports author Earl Selby. Cleveland's income from all sources (not overlooking the 575,000 netted from selling programs) is about S4- million a year; a low-ranking NFL team grosses about 52,600,000. Even selling the season tickets months in advance makes money ; by putting the payments out at in- terest, the teams can make another S15.000 to 530,000. Columbia Broadcasting System won the rights to televise NFL games this season by offering more than S18 million about 31,200,000 to each of the 15 teams. American Football League teams will average a take of about S900.000 annually from their five- year deal with the National Broad- casting Company. By far the biggest single cost is the player payroll, which is rarely less than S700.000. The Washington Redskins' payroll is now more for one week than it was for the entire season of 1937. The average NFL player makes about 516,000 a year for what amounts to about five months of work and the AFL player makes close to that. It takes from 5275 to S300 to equip a player, from helmet chin strap at 51-50 to shoulder pads at 335. By NFL rules, the home team must provide 12 new footballs (518.95 eachl for each game. The insurance bill for the Philadelphia Eagles (every Eagle flight is covered for more than 510 million) runs to 538,000 a year. Marching bands and baton- twirling girls for half-time shows cost another 310,000 to 530,000. All in all, it's just about impossible to field a pro team for less than 32,400.000 a year. Thus, there is an increasing danger that some owners may start concentrating on good profits rather than good teams.

Thanksgiving, icy nights, and. in many parts of the country, the first snowfall. It also means it's high time to check over a number of the essentials in your outer- wear wardrobe. This month we'll survey some of the latest trends in your winter wardrobe with special emphasis on your ski gear. THE BIKE COAT, a short, functional outer- coat, created specially for the campus Bike Set, fills a fashion need evident in the great numbers of motorscooters and bikes on the college scene. Warm, lightweight, and flex- ible, the Bike Coat is a sure bet to become a campus classic. Although lengths vary from the hip to above the knee, emphasis will fall on the shorter models. Styling ranges from the dressy blazer-type double breasted models to the snug, zipper-closure, single-breasted styles. Ample pockets preserve a trim ap- pearance : some have conventional flaps ; others are zippered. FABRIC PLUS COLOR add up to a wide-open array from which college men can pick and choose according to their tastes. Look for fleecy wools, cotton/polyester blends, and leathers, both grained Cabrettas and smooth suedes. Natural tones will be pace-setters in the Bike Coat lineup, especially light tan cottons and warm caramel and clay colors in leathers. Dark blue will make news, as will light and walnut browns. For inclement weather, many models feature rinyl-coated surfaces. THE JUMP SUIT, adapted directly from the parachutist gear, is the most striking innovation in this year's skiwear. A one-piece suit, it will be found mainly in heavy stretch rayon and nylon twill. The Jump Suit features industrial-size brass zippers for both the front closure and pockets, and a wide self-belt with a large brass buckle. There is a stand-up neckband collar and a snap tab, and the sleeves are closed at the cuffs with concealed zippers. THE SKI PARKOAT is a fashion hybrid, de- rived in equal parts from the ski parka, a hooded, lightweight, loose-fitting waist- length jacket and the tow coat which offers warmth without excessive bulkiness or weight. The parkoat is a knee-length parka, often treated for water repellency with tube quilt lining, two-way concealed zipper and roll-out hood. Colors: curry, off-white, and Navy. Fabric choice: nylon. KNICKERS RETURN! After a 30 year absence, knickers are mak- ing an important comeback via the ski slopes. An outgrowth of the Courtly knee breeches of the 1790-1810 period, they came into wide use in sportswear in the 1880's. But along about 1930 the appeal of knickers began to slacken; they were replaced by the full-legged trouser. And now they're back. You'll be seeing wide-wale corduroy knickers, and an occasional pair in nylon. The color spectrum here is broad : forest green, intermediate blue, golden brown, black- and-white checks, burgundy, and heather tweeds. RAINWEAR for this year can be summed up in two words: raglan and short. Sleeves fea- ture the raglan style, and lengths are short. A top contender is the herringbone coat which reverses to natural poplin, styled with a bal collar and button-through closure. For a high fashion note, keep an eye out for the antelope-tan cotton-suede coat with a full zip-out lining of bold red, camel, black and green plaid.

Elmore Lee Maull Seores 26 Points TIGERS LOSE TO SOUTH CAROLINA STATE, 79 to 76 The Savannah State Tigers blasted Benedict College, 114-97, behind the torrid shooting of Oli- ver C. Baker, Jimmy Westley, and Lee Maull. The Tigers used the fast break to perfection in amassing a 17 point lead at halftime. This point spread proved to he Benedict's downfall. Lee Maull led the attack in the first half with twenty points. Savannah State had a slight height advantage for the first time this season and dominated both boards. 0. C. Baker and Jimmy Westley bombed Benedict with consistent 20 and 30 foot jump shots. Baker and Westley ended the game with 25 points apiece. Charles Rutland added 12 points and six rebounds and Maull finished the night with 26 points and 12 rebounds. State blistered the nets for 114 points and a torrid 61 '< from the floor, making 47 of 77 attempts. Nathaniel Dukes had 25 points to lead Benedict in that depart- ment. Ulysses Davis scored 25 points and Ronald Robertson 15 for the visitors from Columbus. Benedict made 42 of 71 attempts from the floor for a 50% average and from the foul line they shot 4S'/c, making 13 of 27 attempts. The next home contest for the Tigers will he on December 16 against South Carolina State Col- lege. Chemistry Dept. Gets Grant By Odessa Williams A grant of 85,000 was awarded on December 1 to the Department of Chemistry for research done by high school teachers in the sum- mer. The major objectives of the project directed by Dr. Charles Pratt, head of the department are: ( 1 ) To give each participant an opportunity to increase his knowledge and understanding of biochemistry; (2) To stimulate teachers for further personal study as a way of improving the teach- ing of biology and chemistry in high school; (3) To strengthen the participating teachers in their ability to interpret experimental results more effectively in their laboratories; (4) To emphasize the foundations and interrelations between the physical and biologi- cal sciences; and (5) To possibly develop new methods of protein fragmentation which will he quick, simple, and reliable. The participants will be high school teachers who will be se- lected on the basis of their train- ing (it must meet the requirements outlined by the NSFl, their aca- demic goals, and their interest in biochemistry. The participants are granted a stipend of S75.00 per week plus (Continued on Page 4) Tigers Roar Wishes You A Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year Who's Who Among Students In American Colleges and Universities (left to right) first row Charles Holmes, Frederick Romanski, John E.

The idea of creating one na- tional basis of recognition for col- lege students that would be demo- cratic and devoid of dues, initia- tion fees or other cost to the stu- dent was conceived about twenty- nine years ago. Then came two years of re- search, correspondence, travel, and interviews with college adminis- trators, personnel managers, stu- dents and undergraduate organiza- tions to determine whether there was a need for such an organiza- tion as "Who's Who Among Stu- dents in American Universities and Colleges." Endorsement by these groups encouraged the ven- ture; thus the publication first came into print for llie school year 1934-35. Recognition by "Who's Who Among Students in American Uni- versities and Colleges" means thai the student was, first officially rec- ommended from tlie university or college he attends and, then at:- (Conlimtcd on Page 5) Choral Society Presents Christmas Concert The Savannah State College Choral Society under the direction of Dr. Coleridge A.

For several years this musical event has been eagerly anticipated by the local community, and it has always been a highlight on the college calendar. For their pro- gram the Choral Society has draw-n upon the musical literature of several countries extending over a period of many years. The open- ing selection, "Personent Lodie," for example, was an English carol arranged by Gustav Hoist from a Latin text and melody. Four ex- cerpts from George F. Handel's immortal "Messiah" were heard. Imogene Hodge, a junior music major from Savannah, sang the contralto solo, "He Shall Feed His Flock" and Ruby Lane, a fresh- man music major from Savannah, sang the soprano solo, "Come Unto Him." A Christmas Hymn, "Angels We Have Heard on High," adapted by Roy Kingwald, was sung just before Richard Moses, a sophomore English ma- jor from Blackshear, was featured in Robert MacGimsey's "Sweet Little Jesus Boy," a Christmas lul- laby. The next selection, "Glory to God," is a contemporary com- position by John Vincent based on Richard Hu bier's Christmas play, "The Hallow'd Time." The audience shared in this pro- gram by singing several familiar Christmas Carols such as the Eng- lish melody, "The First Noel," "O Little Town of Bethlehem" and "Hark the Herald Angels Sing." The Choral Society returned to sing William Lawrence's famous arrangement of "Behold That Star" and John Work's familiar "New Born." The Russian carol, "The Angel's Song," by Paul Tschesnokov, represents one of the most jubilant compositions in Rus- sian choral literature. The final group consisted of Leroy Anderson's joyful "Sleigh Ride" and the familiar secular piece, "The Christmas Song." Accompanists for the program were Angelene Sampson, a senior Music major from Savannah, and Paulette Butler, a junior Music major, also from Savannah. Members of the Choral Society include: FIRST SOPRANOS: Marva Benton, Ola Bryan, Laura Eady, Lettie Ellison, Emma Hawkins, Imogene Hodge, Ruby Lane, Mary Lynch, Dorothy Patterson, Fran- cina Stephens. SECOND SOPRANOS: Doris Braxton, Paulette Butler, Irene Gadson, Caroline Graham, Emma Graham, Minnie Hudson, Miriam M c M ullen, Linnie Robinson, Linda Williams.

Let us stop for a few moments and think about what Christmas really is, what il really means. In realizing; the true meaning, I feel we want to start this Christmas anew, i liristmas i-. celebration; and celebration is instinct in the heart. With L'ifl and feasl, with scarlet ribbon and fresh green bough, with merriment and the sound of musir, we commend the day-oasis in the long, long landscape of the commonplace. Through how many centuries through how many threatening circumstances, has Christmas been celebrated since thai cry came ringing down the ages, "Fear not for, behold, I bring you good lidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unlo you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, winch is Christ the Lord." Christmas is celebration, but the traditions that cluster sweetly around the day have significance only if they translate the hearts' intention- the yearning of llie human spirit lo encompass and express faith and hope and love. Without this intention, the gift is hare, and celebration a touch of tinsel, and the time without meaning. \- lliese attributes exemplify the divine spark in mankind, in- formed the first Christmas and have survived the onslaughts of re- lentless lime, so do they shine untarnished in this present year of our Lord. Faith and hope and love, which cannot he bought or sold or barlered hut only given away, are the wetlsprings, firm and deep, of Christmas celebration. These are the gifts without price, the ornaments incapable of imitation, discovered only within oneself and therefore unique. They are not always easy lo come by: but they are in un- limited supply, ever in the province of all. This Christmas, mend a quarrel. Seek out a forgotten friend. Dismiss suspicion, and replace it with trusl. Write a love letter. Share some treasure. Give a soft answer. Encourage youth. Manifest your loyally in word and deed. Keep a promise. Kind the time. Forego a grudge. Forgive an enemy. Listen. Apologize if you were wrong. Try to understand. Flout envy. Examine your demands on others. Think first of someone else. Appreciate. Be kind; be gentle. Laugh a little more. Deserve confidence. Take up arms against malice. Decry complacency. Express your gratitude. Go to church. Welcome a stranger. Gladden the heart of a child. Take pleasure in the beauty and wonder of the earth. Speak your love. Speak it again. Speak it still once again. These are but inklings of a vast category; a mere scratching of the surface. They are simple things; you have heard them all before; hut their influence has never been measured. Christmas is celebration, and there is no celebration that compares with the realization of its true meaning with the sudden stirring of the heart that has extended itself toward the care of life. Then, only then, is it possible to grasp the significance of that first Christmas to savor in the inward ear the wild, sweet music of the angel choir; to envision the star-struck sky, and glimpse, behind the eyelids, the raj of light that fell athwart a darkened path and changed the world. I hope this message will be of some inspiration in helping some- one realize the true meaning of Christmas Not so long ago when 1 first realized the real and true meaning of Christmas 1 was inspired to write this poem: THANK YOU DEAR GOD Thank you, dear God, for letting Christ be born; On that bright and beautiful Christmas morn. For the loving Virgin Mary, who gave Christ His birth, Had it not been for her, He may have never reached earlh. And had He not come, Oh had He not come, It would have been harder this old race to run. Life without happiness, life without fun; Oh my Lord, what would we have done? He came into this world such a lowly child, So tender, so kind, so meek and so mild; Only to die for a world of sin, hate, and strife, So that we might gain eternal life. An Idea In Operation By Halloray Benjamin From the very beginning of his ixislence, man has, and always L ~\ will, -''arch for knowledge. H i s unparalled heart and i n q uisilive mind have led him u*JL more than once, Y^fSf^^ down the path to _^A^r ^^1 danger and some- ^^Ha A^BB times ultimate de- ll. Benjamin slruction with bis unprecedented flow of knowledge. And, man admits that, even though he has gained impressive inroads in the search for knowl- edge, he is but at the very edge of the vast galaxy of ideas. For what is unknown represents a vastness which, if you will agree. is far greater than our present imaginations will allow us to con- template. As life and time are un- ending, as space itself means an eternity of infinity, so men's knowledge will never be satisfied. Through eons of existence yet to come, until the very twilight of life on this planet, man will con- tinue to ask the one question w hy. And so, as if prefacing with the idea that man and his ideas are not yet in the infant stage. I think il is far more challenging and much more stimulating to specu- late on what man doesn't know. For here, only the limit of one's imagination is the boundary. If you will, agree with the premise that whatever man may imagine, no matter how im- possible, improbable, or ridiculous it may sound, it is possible. After all possibilities and probabilities are in conjunction with the formu- lation of the nucleus of thought ilself. With an idea in operation, man must continue to search for knowledge to provide opportuni- ties, understanding, new advance- ments, and leadership in all com- munities throughout the nation. All that is required is the ability lo iniliate an idea with the thought of accomplishing it. Christmas and What It Means to Me By Ivia Jenkins At this time, as we approach the Christmas season, nothing seems to interest me more than Christ- mas because it is a time of com- memoration of the birth of the Christ Child: As well as a time when petitioners of peace and the pursuers of good will are working their hardest. Christmas Day is a day for reconciliation of peace and good will which makes one feel more charitable and more re- ligious. Already many plans are being made to observe the day of Christ- mas. To each, the meaning may be a different one: 1. To a child, Christmas may mean: Expecting Santa Claus, or to once again hear the beautiful stories of the birth of Christ as portrayed through stories and songs. It may mean the feeling of security as exemplified by the strong bond of love be- tween a mother and her son. 2. To parents, Christmas may mean a financial considera- tion. A struggle to pay the bills as a result of the Christ- mas shopping. 3. To the merchant, it may mean extra buying for the occasion and also extra profit to his credit. 4. To the Atheist, Christmas means nothing, for he does not believe in Christ. 5. To the Christians, Christmas is to celebrate the solemn occasion of the birth of Jesus Christ, to recognize Him as a Savior of the Black Power: Shh . . . not so Loud , The past summer months saw the demise of SNCC, a civil rights organization for which many Americans once held much esteem. SNCC's death is partially due to the new doctrines which it preaches to the Negro: violence in place of nonviolence. SNCC should understand that society cannot give its citizens the right to break the law. Violence is nothing new. For whole nations have been involved in riots, rebellion and revolution. But this can't justify terror in Robert Joiner the North or in the South. No in- dividual or group at any time, for any reason, has a right to exact self-determined retribution. Justice delayed is no excuse for anti-justice. The demand for equality can't be converted into a fight for superiority. Our grievances must be settled in the courts and not in the streets. Muscle is no substitute for morality. We must insist that men use their minds not their biceps. Robert L. Joir i- Lower the Voting Age? (ACP) A Central Michigan University freshman is heading an organization which is waging a state-wide campaign to lower Michigan's voting age requirement to 18 in the November election, the Central Michigan Life reports. Andy Marks is chairman of Youth Equal Suffrage (YES I, one of several organizations seeking electoral support for the change. Marks claims Michigan is being used as a test case for the nation- wide issue because it is a highly industrialized northern state with one of the largest education ex- penditures in the country. He also claims great support throughout the state, including support of the Young Democrats and Young Republicans, who to- gether have raised $10,000 for billboards, leaflets and bumper stickers. The Michigan Citizens Commit- tee for the Vote at 18, affiliated with the National Student Associa- tion, and the Young Americans for Freedom have also come out for the 18-year-old franchise. Major candidates from both parties, including Gov. George Romney, Zolton Ferency, G. Men- world, and it is a time to give with pleasure. A Chris- tian looks forward to Christ- mas with love in his heart for all men, and a greater desire to live a better life in Christ. This is what Christmas means to me. What does it mean to you? nen Williams and Robert Griffin have included their endorsements. Would the enfranchisement of 18-year-olds change the voting pat- terns of the electorate? Studies so far have been inconclusive, but a report of the 1061 Michigan Con- stitutional Convention indicated the following predictions based on their research: 1. The new electors will not have as high a turnout rate as older voters. 2. They will probably h a v e weaker party attachments than their elders. 3. They will probably not dis- play any markedly different pat- tern of political choice than any other voters under 30. More and more universities are finding it advantageous to operate on a year-round basis, reports the December Reader's Digest. In re- cent years the number of uni- versities operating on a four- quarter plan (distinct from ordinary summer sessions ) has grown from half a dozen to more than 70, with others considering year-round programs. The lobster is one of the world's favorite seafoods, reports the December Reader's Digest, with diners shelling out almost S100 million last year for the crustacean. While the average "eating" lobster weighs only about a pound, weights of 25 pounds or more are not uncommon. Exchange of Publications November 21, 1966 Mr. Robert L. Joiner, Jr. Tiger's Roar Savannah State College State College Branch Savannah. Georgia 31400 Dear Mr. Joiner: A belated congratulations on winning one of the 1966 Ed-Press Awards for Excellence! We are always in search of new ideas and new approaches to educational journalism here at Texas Classroom Teachers Association. Since our monthly newspaper, TCTA NEWS, was also an Ed-Press winner this year, perhaps we can arrange a mutually beneficial ex- change of publications. As a start, 1 am sending you a copy of the November issue of the NEWS. You will be placed on our regular mailing list beginning with the December issue. Education publications such as yours suggest ideas for new services and new programs that we can adapt to the needs of Texas teachers, and provide a journalistic challenge for the NEWS staff. Therefore, we would certainly enjoy receiving and reading Tiger's Roar if that can be arranged. Again, congratulations. Sincerely yours, (Mrs.) Korey Bresenhan Director of Informational Services December 14. 1966 THE TIGER'S ROAR Page 3 NEWSCOPE EVENTS Two SSC Students Get Kindle Loans Nelson R. Freeman, dean of stu- dents at Savannah State, reports that Barry Ellis and Curtis Hicks, freshman chemistry majors at the college, have been selected to re- ceive loans from the Kindle Foun- dation for Education. The Kindle Foundation was es- tablished to make interest free loans to students of considerable talent and willingness to work who would not otherwise be able to have a college education. The stu- dent repays the loan at the rate of 10' | of their salary after gradua- tion. The loan is then used for an- other student. Harry Ellis is a resident of Brax- ton. He was graduated from Car- ver High in Douglas as the suluta- torian of his class. Curtis Hicks is a native of White Oak, and third honor grad- uate of Ralph Buncbe High School in Woodbine. The loans for Hicks and Ellis will continue throughout this school year at the rate of Sl,U0O per year and will continue until they have graduated from Savan- nah State. Three faculty members and a student from the Chemistry De- partment at Savannah State Col- lege attended the monthly meeting of the Coastal Empire Section of the American Chemical Society. Dr. Robert \V. Johnson, presi- dent-elect of the society, attended the meeting along with Dr. Charles Pratt, head of the department of chemistry at Savannah State, Dr. K. B. Raut and Miss Odessa Wil- liams, a junior chemistry major at the college. The Fisher Scientific Company sponsored an instrument display at the meeting. The speaker at the meeting was Dr. C. J. Collins, researcher at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. His topic was "A Study of the Mechanistic Rearrangements by the use of Radioactive Isotopes." Dean Nelson R.

Not Anymore By Mary Beal In today's world there are many things which cannot be avoided. This is also true in colleges and universities: at the beginning of each quarter or semester registra- tion especially cannot be avoided. Students have labelled registra- tion as a tedious task which leaves them temporarily mentally de- pressed after long hours of con- tinuous waiting. However, our registration system is being im- proved. Students seemingly favor pre- registration: however, this is only one segment of registration. It was confirmed by the Registrar that pie-registration material will be computerized and those who failed to pre-register will encounter some of the disadvantages of registering. Through the use of the com- puter system and pre-registration. the Registrar will be able to recognize in advance what courses will be closed and this will help to accelerate the process. It was also confirmed that stu- dents who desire to avoid some of the problems arising in meeting financial obligations at registra- tion may pay their fees in ad- vance to the business office. If you are one of the students who dread registration please take this under consideration and you may discover that registration is not as tiresome as it seems. You may also help the Registrar by complying with the registration rules. By Charles J. Elmore The first Library Lecture of the school term was held Nov. 14, at 8 p.m. in Meldrim Auditorium at Savannah State College. Dr. Da- vid Riesman, Lecturer in the De- partment of Social Relations, Har- vard University, was the speaker. Dr. Riesman, a native Philadel- phian, is a graduate of William Penn Charter School, Harvard College and the Harvard Law School. After his graduate work he spent a year as Law Clerk to Mr. Justice Brandeis of the U. S. Supreme Court, a year of law practice in Boston, and then four years as Professor of Law at the University of Buffalo Law School. During the Second World War he worked for Sperry Gyroscope Company as Contract Termination Director, and studied psychoanaly- sis with Erich Fromm and Harry- Stack Sullivan of the William Alanson White Psychiatric Insti- tute. After the war, Mr. Riesman helped to develop the undergradu- ate general education courses in the social sciences at the Univer- sity of Chicago, and taught in the Sociology Department. Since 1958 he has held the Henry Ford II Professorship of the Social Sciences at Harvard. He is the author of numerous books and essays. Of bis works the best known is the book The Lonely Crowd. Other important works are; Faces in the Crowd, a book on f eblen, and Constraint and Variety in American Educa- tion. With Christopher jencks, a Fellow of the Institute for Policy Studies in Washington, D. C, a new organization of which Mr. Riesman is a trustee, he is working on a book tentatively entitled The Academic Revolution dealing with shifts in the university scene in the present era. Mr. Riesman is the founder and one of the editors of the Corre- spondent, a journal of critical analysis primarily concerned with foreign affairs. He is a Fellow of Quincy House, one of the residen- tial houses in which Harvard undergraduates live, and he con- ducts a General Education course for undergraduates on American Character and Society. The speaker, who has had an illustrious career as a lawyer, au- thor, and educator, addressed himself to the topic, "America's Changing Society." Fastest-growing crime in the nation is burglary, according to the December Reader's Digest. Burglars make off with S284 million worth of valuables each year. A burglar enters somebody's premises every 28 seconds on average. It Pays to Increase Your WORD POWER, X^he more words we know .ind use, the more colorful our speech and writing will be.

Yule Tide Is A 'Comin' lit Despite concern over the Viet Nam war, the uncertain perform- ance of the stock market, faster- than-creeping inflation, and other things that have happened, some of which may seem untrue, hut they are very much true. The fol- lowing information comes from "The Guinness Book of World Records." The heaviest recorded human of all time was the 6-feet-tall Robert Earl Hughes, of Fish Hook. Illi- nois. He was an 11 -lb. baby and weighed 378 lbs. at the age of 10. His highest recorded weight was 1,069 lbs. early in 1958. He also possessed the greatest recorded girth at 121 inches and a chest measure! nen t of 122 inches. He died on July 10th, 1958 at Bremen, fossa, aged .V2, and was buried at Renville Cemetery near Mount Sterling, Illinois. His coffin, meas- uring 7 feet by & feet -1 inches and weighing over 1,100 lbs., had to be lowered by crane. Currently the world's heaviest man is Charles "Tiny" Kinsey I U.S.A. I , last reported to weigh 777 lbs. 'I he heaviest recorded woman was a Negress who died in Balti- more, in 1888, scaling 850 lbs. Thinnest liuninns. The lowest recorded human body weight was the 12 lbs. of the Welshman. Hop- kin Hopkins, at his death in Gla- morganshire in March, 1754, At no time in his 17 years of life did he attain a weight of more than the 17 lbs. be scaled at 11 sears. It is recorded that the biceps meas- urement of the Frenchman. Claude Seaurat, was -1 inches at the age of 26 and that the distance be- tween his hack and chest was '3 inches. Slimming. The greatest record- ed slimming feat was that of the American circus fat lady, Mrs. Ce- lesta Gyer, 58, alias Dolls Dimple, reported in April, 1959. In four months she reduced from 555 lbs. down to 120 lbs. Her vital sta- tistics diminished from B4-B4-79 to 34-28-36. Reprodm tivity. The greatest number of children produced by a mother in an independently at- tested case is that of the wife of the Russian, Fedor Vassilet, who in 27 confinements, gave birth to 69 children I 16 pairs of twins, 7 sets of triplets and I sets of quad- ruplelsl. Few of the children sur- vived infancy. Mmc. Vassilet be- came so renowned that she was presented at the court of Czar Alexander 11. Longest Delay. The greatest re- problems the American consumer will be going out in the next few weeks on the greatest Christmas shopping spree in history. The Bureau of Advertising pre- dicts that holiday retail sales this year will total more than S9 billion, which means that in many areas business will be up 10 per cent over last year's record high. The Bureau points out that retail sales for the year have already been running 7 per cent over 1965, and there is nothing on the horizon lo threaten a downturn in these last two months. Disposable in- come in the hands of consumers is at an all-time high, and beyond that, the American public shows no sign of easing off on its easy use "f consumer credit. Another estimate by the Bureau of Advertising is that the average family will purchase 30.4 gifts this Christinas season (who gets that A gift poor Dad?) and will spend an average of S1H3.54. The retailer w h o advertises most aggressively will undoubtedly get the largest share of this spending. Are you prepared now to help YOl R retail accounts with their ad programs? The staff will feel encouraged because selling is easy, but this shouldn't mean that the staff should try to get by with as little effort as possible. It is still imperative to work bard on at- tractive layouts, to think about and arrange for more local pic- tures in ails, to spend time con- ferring with accounts on the items which svill move best among col- lege shoppers. Rut Christmas time is not the only late fall linage - builder. Political candidates are likely to use college newspapers more than ever before ill areas where there are close contests. The Thanks- giving season offers many good promotional possibilities. In some areas the ski season will be starl- ing and. of course, there's the big entl-of-year travel rush. More and more, it seems, Ameri- cans are dissatisfied with where the) are. If they're in a svarm climate, they are likely lo rush off u> snow-covered slopes; if they're in the north tbe\ want a vacation in the south: if they're in the inland areas they want to go tn the coasts, and if they're on the coast they want 10 leave the corded interval between the birth of twins is 136 days in a ease re- purled from Strasbourg in 1846.

Mth MaxQhuIman TIS THE SEASON TO BE JOLLY I know how busy you are studying, going: to class, help- ing old grads find their dentures after Homecoming but, hark, the Yuletide is almost upon us and it's time we turned our thoughts to Christmas shopping. We'll start with the hardest gift problem of all : what to give the man who has everything. Well sir, here are some things I'll bet he doesn't have: 1 ) A dentist's chair. 2) A Mach number. 3) A street map of Perth, Australia. 4) Fifty pounds of chicken fat. 5) A pack of Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades. "What?" you exclaim, your eyebrows leaping in wild incredulity. "The man who has everything doesn't have Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades? What arrant non- sense!" you scotf, making a coarse gesture. But I insist. The mail who has everything doesn't have Personna because everyone in the dorm is always borrow- ing them. And small wonder! Wouldn't you be there svith an empty razor and a supplicating sidle if you heard some- body had super-blades that were super-sharp and super- durable; that scrape not, neither do they nick; that shave you easily and breezily, quickly and slickly, scratchlessly and matchlessly, that come both in Double-Edge style and Injector style? Of course you would! So here is our first gift suggestion. If you know a man who shaves with Personna, give him a safe. Next let us take up the thorny problem of buying gifts when you have no money. Well sir, there are many won- derful gifts which cost hardly anything. A bottle of good clear water, for example, is always welcome. A nice smooth rock makes a charming paperweight. In fact, one Christ- mas back in my own college days, these are exactly the gifts I gave a beauteous coed named Norma Glebe. I took a rock, a bottle of water, a bit of ribbon, and attached a card with this tender sentiment: Here's some water And here's a rock. I love you. daughter, Around the clock. Norma was so moved, she seized the rock, smashed the bottle, and plunged the jagged edge into my sternum. Here now is a lovely gift for an American History major a bronze statuette of Millard Fillmore with a clock in the stomach. tMr. Fillmore, incidentally, was the only American president with a clock in his stomach. James K. Polk had a stem-winder in his head and William Henry Harrison chimed the quarter-hour, but only Mr. Fillmore of all our chief executives had a clock in his stomach. Franklin Pierce had a sweep second hand and Zachary Taylor had 17 jewels and Martin Van Buren ticked but, I repeat, Mr. Fillmore and Mr. Fillmore alone had a clock in his stomach. Moreover, Mr. Fillmore was the first presi- dent with power steering. No wonder they called him "Old Hickory!") But I digress. Returning to Christmas gifts, here's one that's sure to please-a gift certificate from the American Society of Chiropractors. Accompanying each certificate is this fetching little poem: Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, Joyous sacro-iliac! May your spine forever shine, Blessings on your aching back! May your lumbar ne'er grow number, May your backbone ne'er dislodge, May your caudal never dawdle, Joyeux Noel! Heureux massage! * * * 1966.

The rapidly growing travel industry thus has many facets, and virtually all of them believe in advertising.

Gone is the casual atmosphere of the ea first semester; it's time to settle down to some seasonal shift will also signal a major transition apparel. Here are a. few fashion trends to keep in about creating your winter wardrobe. "BLACK SPRUCE" is the most fashionable phrase in a college man's apparel this season. Com- bining lustrous blue and sparkling green cross- weaves on rich black backgrounds, the Black Spruce formula spearheads the trend toward more positive, darker casts. In tailored apparel, the all- over effect of the blue-green interweave occasion- ally creates a striking Black Spruce application in soft plaids, subtle stripings, and a broad range of herringbone patterns. However, the major fash- ion accent falls on color and texture. The lighter overtones frequently contribute a moderately lus- trous appearance, and. though the pendulum sti swings in favor of smooth-type surfaces, many fashion-conscious college men prefer a slightly irregular or "nubbed" finish. WELTERWEIGHTS, in campus suits and outercoats for fall and winter '66, feature heftier, bulky-looking fabrics. Loosely-spun woolens and other fabric blends combine with crisp tailoring for on-campus wear. In Welterweight suits, traditionally-minded col- lege men will hold fast to the conservative look of Natural Shoulder styling: the straight-hanging, 3-button mode] with a notched lapel and center vent. The campus fashion vanguard will prefer a modified Shaped Look featuring a modest waist suppression, wider lapels, and deep side vents. WARMTH WITHOUT WEIGHT characterises the new campus Wei- terweight outercoats. Weaves and textures run the gamut ...from tweeds and camelhairs to heftier twills. But whether selected for dressy or casual wear. Welterweight topcoats follow one all-im- portant fashion dictate: they will be shorter. Knee-length is the outer limit; above the knee is preferred. For dressy occasions, the darker colors predominate: dark blues, grays, and, of course, Black Spruce. For the casual scene, you'll find a wide range of browns, from clay to charred casts, will vie with crisp, colorful heather blends. COORDINATION IS THE KEY to a well turned out appearance throughout the year. This season many American manufacturers are offering college men an instant solution to the "What to Wear with What" problem: totally coordinated, campus- oriented apparel outfits. A typical "Match-Ups" ensemble might include a shirt, sweater, jacket, slacks and bat coordinated from complementary mix-and-match yarns, fabrics, styles and colors. For example: a hefty sport jacket in a bold dark blue and moss green check ; a V-neck sweater with a dark blue cable stitch in front and a moss green accent border surrounding the neck; a pair of basket-weave slacks in n blue and green heather mixture; a herringbone weave oxford cloth shirt; and a cloth hat made of the same fabric of either the jacket or slacks. RUGGED TURNABOUTS MAKE THE SCENE this season reviving the once popular and still im- mensely practical reversible coat idea. From a purely economical point of view, the big revival of the reversibles will be a welcome addition to the wardrobes of most college men. From an equally important styling point of view, you'll find them crisply tailored along classic lines. Look for them in a variety of combinations: smooth polyester fibers blended with cotton or wool and processed for water repellency that turn about to heavier fabrics like lofty tweeds, herringbones, or diago- nals in heather blends, plaids, checks, and allover stripe ideas. Or look for smooth fabrics that re- verse to deep, furry pile fabrics. COMES DECEMBER... comes the merciful Holiday break from the academic routine. Next month as you're preparing to set off for your "breather," we'll cover both the formalwear scene and the latest fashion trends for the ski slopes. So whether you're count- ing on a bright Christmas inside or a white one outside, we'll have the latest fashion bulletins on what's happening this mid-winter season.

High-speed expressways call for a few simple precautions and some advance planning, writes James Nathan Miller. Using them can make your next trip safer and more enjoyable. The first rule of expresswaj driving is to check your gas and tires before you set off on a trip. Stopping to change a flat or running out of gas is a nuisance on any road; on an expressway it can be fatal. If you must stop, get as far off the road onto the shoulder as possible. If there is no shoulder, get all passengers out of the car on the side away from traffic. Co back along the road waving traffic off. Don't stop until you are several hundred feet behind your car; keep waving cars away until police arrive. If you see somebody stranded like this, don't stop; notify the first available policeman or toll collector. Another habit that can be lethal in expressway driving is failure to map a route in advance, to determine exactly where you will be luining off. Over half of all expressway accidents are at the (Continued on Page 5) to enlighten the listeners from any aspect the administration desires.

I am in full agreement with Mr. Josey when he slated that more students should read more. It is vcrj noticeable, especially in survey courses that there's a lark id well-read students. The current events that we hear On radio and read in tin- daily newspapers and periodicals are good in i heir place. However, wc should also have an interest in the background of these current events. The "heller" literature should he read In more people. Sure, prac- tical!) everyone has read Shakespeare's Macbeth, Golding's i-onl of Hamlet, The Iliad and The Odyssey, and the $car/e( i cUer . Vlosl "i these were selections that were probablj touched upon in high school English and literature i nurses. It is inn- thai we prefei seeing a movie if a greol I k. rather than read il ourselves. However, we -land reminded that in man) cases the movies do not contain the full rontenl ol Hie written version, Certainly one could have gotten a better insighi into the Lowmun familj upon reading the play Death of a Sales- man by Arthur Miller. In a few instances, we see copies of some good litenir) works floating around campus, but we seem to have a "don't toui h" altitude t< ward them. Our library, despite its size, has a fairly good collection of works 'hit might want to read foi pleasure. Such works as Man and Superman (Shawl, Candidc (Voltaire), the Bible, Notes From the Underground ( Dostoyevsky ) , Beowulf, The Good Earth (Buck). Brave Sew World (Huxley). The Prince (Macbiavelli), and 1984 (Orwell) an easilj provide hours of Information, pleasure and entertainment. Iheiehy discussion groups ami reports in history, literature and English tnight prove to be more meaningful to us. il is enlightening for example, in a western culture class to be able to point mil and discuss intelligently and from ii firsthand point of view Machiavellian concepts as explained m The Prince or to discuss the great Russian author Dostoyevsky, If time isn't available to read the full length literary works, the book store has ;i collection of inexpensive outlines to some literary works. Nevertheless, the more we read, the more we know and the hettei we can discuss, because reading is what's happening! James Dean Led The Way Hie Pnnhellenic Council has omi n long way in a very short time Several months ago organiza- tions showed signs of near failure. Rut a qualified leader. James Dean, sparki .1 the interest of his fellow Greeks and brought them back as a functioning body, fhere have been times fellow Greeks would not cooperate with each other; however.

Dean refers to ihe National Panhellenic rules to keep Ihe Greek organizalions in line. Credit should also be given lo Professor W. B. Johnson, Greek board chairman, for his coopera- tion.

The officers and members of the National Association of the Ad- vancement of Colored People are happy to share with the student body and college family their present activities and future plans To be-in we have organized on campus what is known as the "Soap Box Sound Ulf, where the student body may bring their complaints concerning the school and administration. Secondly, our meetings are held on Wednesday night at 7:00 p.m. We invite all students and friends to come out and help us discuss the various items and complaints which have been brought up at the Soap Box Sound Off. We are also a member of SCORE (Student Congress On Racial tquahty) among Armstrong State and Savannah State College This group holds their regular meetings every Friday night, at either of the schools Jor further information, please contact any member of SCORE 01 the iNAACP. May it again be said that we are pleading with every student on this campus and those who are making ihe complaints every Ihursday. to give us your full and complete cooperation, if we are to make any progress toward solving our problems. Thank You. Examinations Defeat Purpose Of Education (ACPt Do tests really con- Iribule anything to education? asks the Campus Chat, North Texas Slate University. They are not an infallible measure of a student's academic ability, nor do they prompt the student lo develop his talents and interests to ihe fullest. Hut because professors place such great emphasis on the out- come of exams, the student begins to play a giant guessing game what will the professor have on his lest? Two students converse. One says, "Don't read chapter nine. George had Professor X last semester and he said there are no questions from that chapter." "Thanks." the other says. "By the way. I beard he asks only de- la i led questions, so don't bother with the big stuff." Meanwhile, a third student might be busy selling copies of lests. Like computers, these students tend to spit back memorized knowledge while their own ideas decay. They don't have lime to develop their own ideas because they're too busy playing the guess- in- game. Such a system defeats the purpose of higher education. How could students be evalu- ated? Give them passing or failing grades based on the amount of work they do? Let them do re- search papers and use their own ideas instead of memorizing some- one else's. The elimination of tests would make courses more enjoyable, more interesting and mmc meaningful for both teacher and student. " VOTE REASONABLY! By Halloray Benjamin Election time is almost here and we urge each student to analyze each candidate on the basis of the candidate's platform and qualifi- cations. In order to be reasonable in this matter, we urge you to clear your conscious of all prejudice and elect the person whom you feel will work in the best interest of the student body. One's fraternity brother or soror- ity sister or best H. Benjamin friend is not al- ways the most qualified candi- date. School integrity must pre- vail over selfish motives. In judg- ing the candidates, reasoning and analysis should precede friend- ship and favoritism. Although we endorse no specific candidate, we feel that the candi- date who includes some of the following points in his platform is working in the best interest of the students: 1. Establish a two-party system. 2. Work toward more student participation in the selection of college speakers. 3. Attempt to change the re- quirement that juniors and seniors attend vesper. 4. Attempt to change the re- quirement that male students wear ties to Sunday lunch. The various candidates will in- clude several other points in their platform. We urge you to study and weigh each platform carefully and vole according to what you think the candidate will do to benefit the student body. ^^^ What This School MLf-_, Needs is A Good .idininistrotion-to- Student TtdU v>* By Robert L. Joiner, II K 5 ^ It is gelling hot again and many of State's students are becoming more and more discontent. "Soap Box Sound Off" was organ- ized to give students a chance to slate their problems overtly. A campus organization has volun- tarily scrutinized most of these problems to see if workable solu- tions can be found. During one of the meetings, questions concerning the limited celebrities and speakers appearing on campus were raised. Two other students and I volunteered to look into the matter. Upon cheeking with the dean of students, it was learned that SSC could not afford as man) popular celebrities and speakers as it would like. The prices which these speakers and celebrities asked exceeded the amount of money allocated for entertainment. The same applies to a number of other student problems. There simply isn't enough money in the activity budget to do a number of thing*. What about an activity fee increase? Then sludenls would really complain. Despite the fads, students con- tinue to criticize the same prob- lems. This type of criticism will not cease as long as students are uninformed. Therefore, the college may easily solve this problem of criticism by informing the student body about the limits of the school's finance. Delaying to take action by the college may lead to more student reaction. "Soap Box Sound Off" is a good way to voice opinions and perhaps the best way to be unheard. Very few students participate in the "sound off"; therefore, the real message doesn't travel very far. Students not interested enough to participate in "sound off." are contented to receive secondhand information from other students. Many students welcome the chance lo distort information and to spark trouble. If this distorted informa- tion gets out of hand, rumors will soon permeate the campus and students will become uneasy; they will begin to push. Recent history has taught us the story behind people who become uneasy, push and spread rumors. The situation usually leads to what seems lo be a spontaneous com- bustion. Surely the college is prudent enough to act in time to prevent would-be trouble. In reiteration, it is felt thai the college would do well to call an all student assembly. The students would be able to direct their ques- tions to the proper authorities. Students would be able in turn to receive firsthand factual informa- tion. This kind of assembly would both educate and impress a lot of students. And, no doubt, such a meeting would dissolve a lot of rumors which might later lead to serious misconduct. STRAIGHT TALK By Walker Durham While I was sitting in the stu- dent center one day, a group of students were sitting at a table talking about almost anything that you could name. As time passed by and as talk went on someone broke the variety and began talk- ing about SSC. Like a "Flash" I took out my pen and began to write. The conversation went like this: "You know SSC is still about as dead as it was >ears ago." "You can say that again." "There is nothing to do but the same old thing day in and day out." '"We don't have any of the big-time activities on our campus like there are on other campuses." "We may get one good person once a year. but the rest they could keep." "Whoever is in charge of present- ing things here doesn't know what students like." "We have never had any of the popular people like James Brown. Ray Charles. Jerry Butler and people of this nature." Afler the students talked about activities for a while, some student got the ball rolling when he mentioned something about the school's business operation. "Let's talk about the business policies of this place." he said. "I think this school has the poorest business operation of any place 1 have ever seen. I don't mean the Business Department either. I am talking about those people in the Registrar's and Business Offices. They are so unbusiness like. I understand that the students who work on campus have a heck of a time trying to get their checks, but they will worry you to death if you owe them. Another thing, they are sure that all errors go against you and not them. As if they were perfect." The thing that most students are talking about now, is the fact that some students were forced to drop courses after being in them half of the quarter. The school said that they were on academic pro- bation. "How is a student to know- be is on probation if the school Walker Durham doesn't tell him before the quarter starts? Why would they permit him to register for a full load. only to have him reduce it after mid-quarter?" "1 think this very unfair to the sludenls. Some stu- denls were doing well in classes thej had to drop." "But the main point is. why did they permit the students to register? Some of these students bad spent lots of money for equipment." "Well what is going to happen to the money that the students paid for 15 hours. when they have only ten, or less? Will they get a refund? If not. why? It is not the students' fault they were permitted to register." Well, at this point it was about time for me to go, but you can see that I should have had a really splendid time listening and writ- ing. Just before I left, they began talking about teachers and how terrible some of them are. I didn't want to leave then, because I could have added something to that con- versation. Maybe I will catch up on it next time around.

Paisley is back from last spring but in "more subdued shades, less white and yellow and more blue. brown, green and olive," one salesman said. A silk foulard print described by one manager as "not quite paisley" also rates high. Polka dots are back from long ago, but the flowery Mod look. back from nowhere, is apparently headed nowhere on campus; none of the merchants carries the long- hair -hie. The five-inch wide Mod, which one salesman said ''stretches from shoulder to shoulder" is just an ugly rumor and will not find a place at OU. The really new tie is the wool, popular in stripes, checks and Glen plaid and in widths from two and five-eights to three inches. The polka dot tie. which is creating quite a stir, comes in dots of all sizes. "The smaller dots are more conservative and dressy," one salesman explained, "and the larger one is more dressy." As one manager put it, "A tie is a man's expression of bis in- dividuality. Tastes in color and patterns change because he wants something different all the time."

From that time on we've planned our entire life together. Everything we endeavored to do was done together including going to the same college. We decided not to get married until we'd graduated from college. Here we are at the close of our senior year and she says that what we thought we had was only a farce and she doesn't love me. After all this time she says she doesn't love me. 1 love this girl the only girl in my life more than I love living and no one can convince me that she doesn't feel the same towards me, yet she wards out what am I to do? What? How am 1 to follow- through with my dreams without my heart?

Try doing him that same way for a couple of days and see how he likes "Them" apples. He sun- to follow him to places like the barber shop! He'll soon get your point. Jackye Dear Jackye, It's not that I feel responsible for this chick or something, bul she gels in my hair and I hate to hurt her feelings and sluff. 1 mean, can 1 help if she fell in love with the sweet me? Of course not! Well, anyway, these other two chicks that I dig very much ( they don't know about each other) are steadily hanging iti there I mean like they're my main cut partners. Well, anyway this chick what makes my head beat, always pops up when I'm with one of the others and rocks the ship, if you read me. I'm used to chasing the girls, but I can't cope with them chasing me. So. Jackye if you will publish my letter maybe she'll get the message and cut thai junk out. Mister John Doe Dear Johnnie, We weren't allowed to print your real name but here's your letter and here's hoping that she'll get the message and CUT THAT JUNK OUT! Jackye Bored With Breakfast? Try This: By the Ingenue Serv: You can pep up your mornings, improve your grades and stay slim all in one easy step. Just eat a good breakfast every morning. Most teens admit [hat they skip breakfast through the sheer monot- ony of facing cereal, toast and eggs seven days a week. Weight- watchers who eliminate breakfast calories often wreck their diets by nibbling in-between meal snacks. And it's difficult to learn when you're ha If -asleep. So, members of the Better Breakfasts For Teen-Agers Club, unite! First rule for membership is the unshakeable belief that breakfasts can be as zany as your imagination allows. Pancakes may be pancakes, but a "IVacky Stack" is more. Prepare pancakes and waffles the usual way, use frozen ones if you're in a hurry. Stack alternately, spread- ing peanut butter, whipped cream, cheese and jam, between layers. Then lop each stack with a pine- apple slice, hot maple syrup and butter. Student Press ce "Morning Mousse" is not last night's leftover dessert but lime geialin chilled unlil very thick and beaten until fluffy. Garnish with peach slices and chill. When ready to serve, top with yogurt and cream. Ever tried a "meal-in-a-glass?" Take one egg, chocolate syrup, a ripe banana and a cup of chilled milk. Whirl in a blender for just a second and serve in a tall glass.

Who says a good breakfast has to be dull? *+* On Campus with MaxQhulman (By lb suiter of "Rally Round Hie F ho, Boys.'", "Dobic Gillis," etc.) WHO'S GOT THE BUTTON? I'm sure it has not escaped your notice that underlying; the adorable whimsy which has made this column such a popular favorite among my wife and my little dog Spot, there is a serious attempt to stay abreast of the problems that beset the American college student. Many a trip have I made to many a campus-talking to undergraduates, listening to their troubles, heaving their grievances, reading their buttons. (Incidentally, the sec- ond and third most popular buttons I saw on my last trip were: "WALLACE BEERY LIVES" and "FLUORI- DATE MUSCATEL." The first most popular button was, as we all know. "SCRAP THE SCRAPE" which is worn, as we all know, by Personna Super Stainless Steel Blade users who, as we all know, are proud to proclaim to the world that they have found a blade which gives them luxury shave after luxury shave, which comes both in double-edge style and Injector style, which does indeed scrap the scrape, negate the nick, peel the pull, and oust the ouch, which shaves so closely and quickly and truly and beautifully that my heart leaps to tell of it. ( If per- haps you think me too effusive about Personna, I ask you to remember that to me Personna is more than just a razor blade; it is also an employer.) But I digress. I make frequent trips, as I say, to learn what is currently vexing the American undergraduate. Last week, for example, while visiting a prominent Eas- tern university (Idaho State) I talked to a number of engineering seniors who posed a serious question. Like all students, they had come to college burning to Jill them- selves with culture, but, alas, because of all their science requirements, they simply had had no time to take the liberal arts courses their young souls lusted after. "Are we doomed," they asked piteously, "to go through life uncultured?" I answered with a resounding "No!" I told them the culture they had missed in college, they would pick up after graduation. I explained that today's enlightened corporations are setting up on-the-job liberal arts pro- grams for the newly employed engineering graduate- courses designed to fill his culture gap-for the truly en- lightened corporation realizes that the truly cultured em- ployee is the truly valuable employee. To illustrate, I cited the well-known case of Champert Sigafoosof Purdue. When Champert, having completed his degree in wing nuts and flanges, reported to the enlightened corporation where he had accepted employment, he was not rushed forthwith to a drawing board. He was first installed in the enlightened corporation's training campus. Here he was given a beanie, a room-mate, and a copy of the com- pany rouser, and the enlightened corporation proceeded to fill the gap in his,culture. First he was taught to read, then to print capital let- ters, then capital and small letters. (There was also an attempt to teach him script, but it was ultimately abandoned.) From these fundamentals, Champert progressed slowly but steadily through the more complex disciplines. He was diligent, and the corporation was patient, and in the end they were well rewarded, for when Champert fin- ished, he could play a clavier, parse a sentence, and name all the Electors of Bavaria. Poised and cultured, Champert was promptly placed in an important executive position. I am pleased to report that he served with immense distinction-not, however, for long because three days later he reached retirement age. Today, still spry, he lives in St. Petersburg, Florida, where he supplements his pension by parsing sentences for tourists. * * * ir, m Show* Here's a sentence that's easy to parse: Subject- "you." y e rb- "double."

YAF-YAC-PAC The < ollegiale Press Service WASHINGTON it PS) "oung Vmericans for Freedom is getting younger all the lime. I he i onservative organization has recentlj dropped programs to mobilize the young voter while adding a new division for high schoolers. Almost a hundred secondary school chapters have been char- tered in the two years YAP has been actively recruiting them, Executive Dire-tor David Jones said in a recent interview. Things have been going so well, he con- tinued, that the national office is setting up a special high school de- partment. YAF, primarily a col- !-.- organization since its found- ing in 1960, has found lhat it pays to organize people early. High school students, many of them coming from conservative backgrounds, are searching for causes and are eager to discuss the issues, lories said. Won over early, ihe student going on to college often assumes a leader-hip position there. Jones' remarks followed by sev- eral weeks the demise of another YAF aim. the Political Action Committee. YAC-PAC was engi- neered last fall to develop a strong organization capable of dealing di- rectly with the voter. In its first effort, which "left much to be desired," according to Jones, YAF-PAC focused on the upcoming congressional elections, attempting n> assist friendly can- didates. YAF National Chairman Tom Huston expressed the thinking he- bind the venture last year when lie said that "YAI's most urgent task is to int. LI together a political co- alition which can gain the support of a majority of the people and invesl us with governmental au- thor] t] .Now, however, the tactics have been reconsidered. Young con- servatives are no) going to he any less active in the Republican Party, Jones indicated, but YAF thinks it can be more effective by educating them than by trying to coordinate their manpower directly. Nevertheless, Jones' thoughts about Republican presidential can- didates in 1968 indicate that YAF is not planning to drop out of the political arena by any means. "For the young conservative," Ronald Reagan is the only clearcut choice, he said, "but Reagan will probably not be nominated." Rejecting Michigan's Governor George Romney as far too liberal, Jones concluded that perhaps the "practical view" fell on Richard Nixon. From the conservative per- spective, Nixon has a good anti- communist stand and he cam- paigns on a sound fiscal program, Jones noted. The trouble is. he said, Nixon is unwilling to speak out against "unconstitutional issues" such as civil rights legislation, and he sup- ports some "big government" leg- islation just to get votes. VOTE! So You Can Argue ! MAKE A BIG SPLASH with the latest look in swim suits. For the uninhibited set, there's nothing better than the Tarzan style loin- cloth swimsuits we highlighted in the February column. For more conventional good looks, we like the new lightweight quick-drying cotton corduroy swim-play shorts. Style runs the gamut from ex- tension waist band to belted models and from brief to surfer length leg. Bright color is the keynote for "67. Yellow, green and gold bathing trunks are getting the biggest play and the multi-color stripe straight hanging jersies are a natural to top them off. The colorful cover-ups are not only smart looking but tailor made to suit every taste. You can choose anything from a cool, sleeveless boat neck to a free swinging mock turtle neck shirt with % length sleeves. THE HEADLINE STORY is the new bold geometric, paisley or native print cotton hats that are designed for beach or holiday wear. It's the hat that's fun to wear, looks well on and just may change a bareheaded generation of college men into a nation of hat men. Both the round and flat top models are always worn brim down. GO NATIVE in this season's Mexican. Aztec or African inspired print button down collar sport shirts. Solid color slacks or walk shorts in bright shades handsomely accent the bold shirts. Or, reverse the order and sport the colorful native print slacks with a solid shirt. A couple of pairs of western style jeans or chinos round out the basic casual equip- ment. IHt bUuKLESS LOOK and common sense have come to terms. While we like the look of bare ankles with certain casual clothes we know it's harmful to feet and murder on shoes. So, we recom- mend you slip on the new mini socks that preserve the naked look and offer protection at the same time, For sportswear you can't go wrong with the new smooth leather reverse suede casual shoes in either the slip-on or eyelit tie model. Color is generating a lot of excitement in daytime footwear. Choose from a wide range of tan, gold, pastel green, blue or burgundy. Other newsworthy footnotes are the easy going sandals in a wide range of leathers and colors. fiS ANYTHING GOES during the day but when the sun goes down there are plenty of places, even on the casual summer circuit that won't let you in without a coat and tie. The look we like best is a navy or medium blue double breasted blazer with white stitching. Tie on a printed silk tie in the new wider widths and you're ready to do the town. If this summer will see you making an important entry into the business world, a lightweight wool and polyester suit in any of the new lighter colora- tions will see yon handsomely through the hectic days ahead. And for the avant garde, a double breasted or 2-button model suit is an excellent choice. TIME TO RING DOWN THE CURTAIN on another academic year. So, whether you plan to surf, soak up some rays or try the junior executive life, make the most of it and have a ball this summer ! Au revoir until the fall when we'll be back with the scoop on Back-to- College fashions. See you in September. Copyright, 1967. ESQUIRE. Inc.

SSC Gets Money For Regent's Scholarships Savannah Stale College has received a 5.800 allocation, to be used for Regents' Scholarships, from the University System of Georgia. Only a resident of Georgia is eligible to receive a Regents' Scholarship. In order to be considered, an applicant must rank in the top 25 percent of his class if he has been enrolled in college previously, or must be predicted to achieve such a standing if he will be a beginning student in college. A scholarship is awarded only to an applicant who does not have funds available from other sources for expenses necessary in obtaining a college education. The scholarships are available for any phase of higher education, from the freshman class through graduate school, in most fields of study offered in the Universit) System institutions. Applications for scholarships are due at Savannah State College on April 29, to become effective in September, at the beginning of the academic year. The majority of these scholarships cover the full academic year of nine months, or three quarters. A recipient may renew a scholarship for as long as he continues to meet all eligibility require- ments. Each person receiving a Regents' Scholarship is expected to work in Georgia after receiving his college education. Each year of such employment reduces by $1,000 the recipient's obligation for the total amount of scholarships received. Any recipient who does not work in the State is expected to repay the amount received, plus interest. All inquiries concerning applications or other details of the scholar- ships should be directed as sooti as possible to Director of Student Aid. Savannah State College. Savannah, Georgia.

Athletic Ticket Sales Drop (ACP| The sale of season ath- letic tickets to students at the Uni- versity of Minnesota is the lowest it has been since 1943. Between 25 and 30 per cent of the students bought tickets this year, compared to 35 per cent last year, 37 per cent in 1964 and 44 per cent in 1963. The tickets, sold on a lottery basis for $15, are exchangeable for a ticket covering winter and spring quarter sports after the Bill Doggett (Continued from Pa^e I) group disbanded. Bill was hired by Ella Fitzgerald to be her pianist anil arranger. While accompanying Miss Fitz- gerald. Bill free-lanced as arranger for Jimmy Lunceford, Count Basic and Louis Armstrong. In L947, Bill became chief arranger for Lionel Hampton's band and from there joined Louis Jordan and His Tympany Five as pianist and arranger. It was with Jordan that the two musicians who were destined to create "a new sound in the world of swing," met. Bill Davis, formerly pianist with Louis Jordan, was leaving to exploit an idea he had for the Hammond Organ. Several years later. Bill Davis, "The Rage of the Hammond Organ," was re-hired by his old boss, Louis Jordan to play a tour of theatres. Doggett was intrigued and six months later he too left Jordan to study the Hammond Organ. Once he had mastered the instrument. Bill got an oppor- tunity to accompany his old friend Ella Fitzgerald on the re- cording sessions that produced "Smooth Sailing." "Air Mail "per id and "Rough Riding." Three hits catapulted Bill Doggett. making him the most sought after recording organist in the country. In June, 1952, Bill Doggett with his newly organized combo opened a A eto York's celebrated Baby Grand Club and started the excite- ment thai culminated a year later in the 1053 "Record Revieivers' Rhythm and Blues Finalist Award" and for "Honk Tonk Part One and Part Two" the title of Number One Instrumentalist Group" in polls conducted by CASH BOX and BILLBOARD. Bill received two gold records and three gold statue awards. After several years of record hits like "Slow Walk," "Ram- Bunk-Shus," "Hold It" and "Moondust," and six great albums; "3,046 People Danced All Night," "The Band With A Beat," "Bill Doggett Swings." "Oops," "Prelude To the Blues" and "Fingertips," Doggett had become an institution! football season is over. Ticket manager Shirley Koi- blick said she did not know why sales were so poor because there was more publicity this year. "My own theory is that perhaps school is more difficult now and maybe students spend less time on leisure activities," she said. Athletic Director Marsh Ryman said the Athletic Department would make an exhaustive study of the reasons for the declining ticket sales and then make sales plans accordingly. -?>^t i U ? M O Wise Scholars By the Ingenue Student Press Service Soaring tuition rates, the rising cost of room and board and other extras are increasing the expense of going to college. But there are ways for the student to lower the high cost of learning. Here are some tips from Ingenue Magazine on how to spend like a pauper and live like a prince on campus, You can: Track Meet Edward Waters placed first in nine <>f 1 7 events and scored a total of 74 points to win the South- eastern Athletic Conference title held at Savannah State College's athletic field. Last year's SEAC champions, SSC. finished second with 53 points followed by Florida Me- morial with 19. All three teams received trophies and received stiff competition from Albany. Paine, and Morris College that rounded out the 18th annual event.

The purpose of the meeting was Io formulate plans for a top level conference for Student Y'MCA's to be held in Washington, D. C. at Christmas time I December 27- January 1), 1967. The projected theme of the conference, which will be co-sponsored by the Cen- tral Atlantic Area Student YMCA's and the Pennsylvania State \ oung Adult Committee, is "The Creative Angle of Urbanization." Plans are being made for an attendance of approximately 300 students. Bostwick will be working in the Atlanta Task this summer along with Don Leak. Southern Area Young Adult Services, and Don Dis, Georgia Technical, doing the paper work for the conference. In September, Bostwick will return to Washington, D. C. to participate in the final plan making for the upcoming conference. The Christmas conference that is coming up for the student YMCA's is planned to be one of the most exciting as well as edu- cational conferences ever to have been experienced by American students. The SSC YMCA hopes that a representative number of students from this campus will start making preparations now to attend this conference in Washing- ton during the Christmas holidays. Other students were present rep- resenting Georgia Tech, Duke Uni- versity, North Carolina State Col- lege, Catholic University of Amer- ica, American University and Johns Hopkins University. Long Hot Summer By Mary L. Beal For many of SSC's current en- rolled students the summer may not seem as long and as hot as it really will be because they have many interesting and exciting things planned. Among the stu- dents are Margaree Johnson, De- loris Mason, and Samuel Christie who will work with the Atomic Energy Commission in Washing- ton, D. C. There are others who will work at home, they are: Ina Rozier plans to work at the Dublin Garment Company, Dublin, Ga.; Wilma Walkins plans to work as a social worker's aid trainee with the Welfare Department in Tampa, Fla. Other students who plan to work at home are Earlene Virgil SSC Initiates Pre-trial Program Savannah State College expects to conduct during the 1967 sum- mer session a college pre-trial pro- gram designed for students who completed high school with less than an overall average of "C."

((I That ear privileges, with parental consent, be granted to all female students after the first quarter of attendance at Sa- i annah Stale College. (7) That the praeliee of requiring all male students to wear ties to dinner on Sunday he abolished. |H) 1 wish to recommend that Dormitory Directors be requested not to make up land enforce) regulations that conflict with those issued by the Office of Dean of Students. (91 I wish to recommend that students' final grades he posted by faculty members and listed according to student number in some central and conspicuous location as soon as they are prepared. til) I I request that the Committee on Campus Life be composed of an equal number of student and faculty members with each member having one vote. Ill) I request that the Student Advisory Committee have Equal student and faculty representations with each member having one vote. Item- 1 through 4 are simply relaxations of 'the present regulations that have been needed for some time. As you will note, there is an increase in privileges with classification. If approved. 1 recommend that items 1 througli 4 become effective at the beginning of the next academic year. There is no apparent reason to sign out at 7 p.m. for an on-campus destination. There is no reason for a person to leave the Library lor student center), to go to the dormitory and sign out to return to the same place. If item 5 is approved, 1 recommend that it become effective immediately after it is announced that it has been approved. In reference to item 6, the senior female students presently enjoy car privileges with parental consent. It is the opinion of this office (which reflects the opinion of many students! that if a parent will file a "Statement of Permission to Ride in Cars" with the Office of the Dean of Women, that the said privileges should he granted. It is recommended that item 6. if approved, become effective at the be- ginning uf the next academic year. In reference to wearing ties, this office agrees that the wearing of a tie is appropriate for Sunday dinner, but the student should be allowed to decide for himself that he wishes to wear a tie. If approved, 1 recom- mend that item 7 become effective immediately after it is announced that it has been approved. It has been called to my attention that the Dormitory Directors (item 8.1 impose regulations that are not listed among those published by the Dean of Student's Office, i.e., locking the door before the time listed in the regulations, requiring the female students to double-date, not allowing the drinking of soft drinks in the lobby, etc. I feel that these practices should be abolished as soon as possible. The implementation of item 9 would provide students with a quick knowledge of their performance during the past quarter and should lessen the number of students who are listed on the deficiency list that register for an overload the following quarter. The Committee on Campus Life is responsible for bringing cultural and entertaining artists to our campus for the enrichment and enjoy- ment of our students. I therefore feel that students should have a greater representation on this important committee. The duties of the Student Advisory Committee are somewhat to those of a court and I feel that the student charged should be con- fronted and questioned by more of his peers than has been the case in the past. There is a need on our campus for a counseling service to aid students in the selection of a major that is more in line with the stu- dent's aptitude. This can be done by offering a series of tests (in ad- dition to those given during Freshmen Orientation) that will measure the student's aptitude, e.g., to see if the student is science-minded, history-minded, etc. This will probably lessen the number of students A Tribute To Seniors By Mary L. Beal There is a saying that there are two roads to success. It is most obvious that you have traveled and are still traveling one of those. Keep your mind on this road to success and you are likely to succeed in life. While traveling this road you probably had some flat tires, or maybe a few blow-outs, gave out of gas, ran into a storm, got a few traffic tickets or even made a couple of detours. Nevertheless it appears that you used each of these obstacles as another ounce of determination in reaching your destination. [f you travel by ship instead you are faced with the probability of rough waters, ran into a storm or even becoming sea sick before docking ; however, your voyage this far seems to have been otie of few difficulties. You are not limited to traveling in vehicles which are limited to land or sea, you are now eligible to board a plane, which means reaching your destination faster. If you travel by plane, make sure your seat belt is fastened before taking off and landing because there are times when there is rough landing. It does not matter what form of transportation you use as long as you do not completely detour from the road to success. Some of you travel at a slow rate; some travel at a moderate rate. There are still others who travel at a fast rate. Nonetheless, it seems as though all of you have reached one t raf f ic light, which reads "CAUTION." at the same time. You have overcome the diffi- culties which you encountered on part of your journey and have arrived at one of the most decisive points in making this journey a success. It also appears that this "caution light" is at a cross road where each of you must determine which route is the best to travel from this point on to travel until your journey has ended. However, as you continue this journey keep this phrase in mind, "Keep on pushing, do not stop now, move up a little higheV some way. some how." The Tiger's Roar staff joins me in wishing you the best of luck in your future endeavors. From the Editor's Desk Spotlight Y>7 Meets Students Spotlight '67, the theme of the 1967 Tiger was met with much approval from the SSC student body. The theme was expertly carried throughout the pages of the annual on each division page. There was notably a high degree of student cooperation for the book. Mr. Wilbur McAfee was honored by having the publication dedicated to him. The students en- joyed the vivid color photos of our queen and her court. President Jordan and others. Many student activity shots were included to show the full realm of campus life here at SSC. The superb leadership and journalistic abilities of Johnny Davis, the editor, was shown with this superb production. Rebel Without A Cause On May 4, we. the student body of Savannah State College, elected a new slate of officers for the '67-'68 school term. As a result of our confidence in certain people, we elected them. We, at our first "Talk- In" decided to allow President-elect Lang to carry our grievances to President Jordan and have a progress report read at the next meeting. However, 1 remind you that before Lang had a decent chance to get anything done and before we heard of the progress he had made an unorganized "break-out" occurred. I further remind you that I, also am a student and a resident in fact, the president of Camilla Hubert Dormitory, therefore I shared in some of the complaints made concern- ing the social regulations. But unknown to most of you. on that very same evening, the Dean of Women held a meeting at her residence for suggested changes in the dormitory regulations governing the female residents. All three dorms were represented adequately and each representative shared in the meeting. The excuse used in C. Hubert for the conduct that evening was a desire for a change in the rules. I. personally told many of the residents that we should give the presi- dent-elect an opportunity to do as we asked of him. Anyone present could tell that many of the young ladies didn't have the slightest idea of what was really happening, they (in some eases) just wanted to be a part of "the happenings" and some persons didn't want to be called "Chicken-hearted" bv the fellows. However, the point that many students overlooked is that we had placed a vote of confidence in the president-elect, before taking things in our own hands. As many of us heard at the second "Talk-In," the recommendations that were presented to the President were all ac- cepted and some went into effect immediately. We should BE matured young adults to the degree that we can have others take us at our word and we ourselves should place more value on our "word" than we demonstrated on the night of the 11th and the morn of the 12th. In many cities, the actualities of the so-called "riot" were distorted. It was reported in some newspapers that bricks and rocks were thrown. a dorm was damaged and that the young ladies were "running loose." We know that those things were not true, but convincing others might not be as easy as thought. I plead to you to stand by those that we elected and give a helping, not hindering hand for the common cause here at SSC. Our cause should be improvement, not just of social regulations for the female residents, but of our over all institution including student participation, academic and cultural events. Many people were bickering about the newspaper, but stop and understand. The student participation for this newspaper is so limited that in reality, our paper is published by approximately half dozen people. We bicker, but when were needed constructively, we won 1 ! help this seems rather inconsistent. Notices have been posted asking for participation but to no avail. So as you read this edition, bear in mind your complaints, but don't forget your denial to help. Barbara Mobley * Editor-in-Chief REPORTERS, WHY? Savannah State College is fortunate enough to have organizations on its campus centered around each of its departments. Each class is also organized. Greek letter organizations play a major role on the campus as well as academically geared organizations. When officers are elected to these clubs and fraternal groups, a reporter is also elected. My question is, why? If the newspaper staff decided that a paper must be published, it has to go out and solicit news, in some cases "beg," putting it mildly. It has been mentioned on our campus that our paper was not published regular enough, but how is this possible if no one reports any news concerning his activity. Why are you a reporter? Do you feel that having your name in the election minutes as being a reporter completes your job? Well, it does not. You should make bi-weekly or monthly reports to some member of the newspaper staff in writing concerning your organiza- tion's activities. Please remember that no news can be printed that the public re- lations division does not know about. Also keep in mind why you elected a reporter and the reporter most of all should keep in mind what he is to do. The only way that we can make our newspaper better or the best, is through the support of the student body. Reporters, why? To relay the messages of interest to the news public. M. Dukes that change their majors during their first or second year of attend- ance at Savannah State. It is suggested that the administration study the possibilities of establishing such a counseling service. Many students would like to have the Student Center open until a later hour. Since this is a majority opinino I suggest that the Student Center be open until 10 p.m. on weeknights and 11 p.m. on the weekend. Also I suggest that the swimming pool be open for a longer period of time and on more days than is the case presently. I respectfully request your immediate consideration of the fore- going recommendations, requests, and suggestions. Respectfully yours, John E. Lang, President-elect and Vice-President cc: Dr. Willie G. Tucker, Advisor HAPPY SUMMER from the Tiger's Roar Staff May. 1967 THE TIGERS ROAR Pace 3 Letters To The Editor . . . As SCORE Sees It By H. Harmon General Chairman of SCORE Wake Up and Look Around You! The problem at Savannah State College is not the social rules that restrict women in the dormitories. nor the outdated practice of re- quiring students to dress for Sun- day dinner, nor even the trouble- some and seemingly useless prac- tice of requiring on-campus resi- dents to attend vesper services on Sunday. Rather, as we see it, the problem at SSC is academic, and it's the student who really needs to "wake up." If the student does not realize that he is being short-changed by these academic deficiencies there is no hope for a significant change in the near future. The System: I know, as a stu- dent, that it's hard for a student to make a self-evaluation of his educational accomplishments, be- cause the student in today's col- lege is too grade-conscious. Grades do have a definite bearing on your future, especially if you are planning to go on to grad school or med school or something of this nature. But when you go into the "job rat race," and even in the applicable phase of the afore- mentioned fields, these grades mean little if you don't have the knowledge that is "expected" to have produced these grades. On the job market the employer is not interested in the fact that you are a Negro, and that the Negro race has been deprived culturally, socially, and educationally for a hundred years or better. The em- ployer is only interested in whether or not you can "cut the mustard." i.e.. do the job that he has in mind. If you can't compete with the whites, as far as these ability tests are concerned, you are just out of the picture. Studies show that Negro B.A.'s and M.A.'s just don't come up to standards. These B.A.'s and M.A.'s just can't compete with the white and even other Negro competitors from Northern colleges. And this is where our problem lies. The Southern Negro college and also the white ethnic colleges have been put, in reality, years behind the majority of white in- stitutions. Furthermore, these de- ficiencies have set up a vicious cycle or system of deficiencies. The system works something like this: The college student, usually in the field of education, never reaches his full potential. This is due mainly to the inadequacy of faculty, curriculum, and general lack of an intellectual atmosphere. And even worse, the student is not motivated or eager to obtain the higher goals of education. There- fore he falls into the rut of second- rate education. This student, now a graduate, usually goes back to his small home town and soon starts work in the public school system. Because most of his thirst for knowledge and interest is gone, he cannot interest or motivate his (Co, nued on Page 8) Students Express Deep Concern By Tommy Elder There was recently a talk-in held on our campus. The idea of the talk-in originated from a re- cent lecture given by Mr. E. J. Josey, former librarian, on academics. A group of SCORE- NAACP students that was pro- foundly concerned felt it needed to clear the air on just how State stands academically. The possi- bility of State's being second rate resulted in a call to the adminis- tration and faculty to define just where we were on the escalator of academic achievement. At the talk-in a very valid state- ment was made as to just where our emphasis should be placed on academics. Should we be hypo- critical and place the majority of our meager financial resources on extra-curricular activities or be more realistic and concentrate on an intensified academic upgrad- (Continued on Page 6) Dear Editor: I was absolutely surprised at seeing a small representation of the faculty members at the "Teach- In." Why weren't more of them present ? Do they actually care how the students feel about their civil liberties and academic stand- ards at Savannah Slate College? Is it that the administration has intimidated the students? It has been said that our teachers are more interested in their checks each month than in anything else. Of course, I am of the belief that this is not true. I would like to believe that our teachers are dedicated to seeing that, we, the students get a good education. I am sure some of the instructors were very busy sitting in their offices making preparations for the next class, while others, maybe, were grading papers which they probably will return to the students in two or three weeks after the exams. Per- haps still others were reading the financial page of their newspapers to see if there had been any fluctuations in the stocks in which they had made an investment. We have been told that if you have grievances, they should go through proper channels. Is it not true that the channels at Savan- nah State College are designed in such a way as to discourage any student from seeing them through? Grievances going through the channels have about as much of a chance as I would if I tried to get Senator Russell to use his in- fluence to abolish tuition at Geor- gia's stale colleges. I'm sure, the results would be the same in both cases negative! Yours truly, M.

De, Editor It is to my knowledge that some of the students at SSC believe that Mr. Roberts, faculty advisor for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People I NAACP) and a few others whose names I will not mention, thought up the scheme as some of you say about the May 10 "Talk-In." But speaking for myself, it was a good idea no matter who really thought it up. I wish that I could say that I was the one who thought up this brilliant idea, but the persons who thought up this idea were those of you that shared your ideas with us on our "Soap- box Sound Off" and from the speech made by Mr. Josey. I sincerely hope that this very short letter lias removed some of the doubt from your minds. Yours truly, James Benjamin, Jr.. President of the NAACP, SSC Branch Lang looks on as Harmon verbalizes. Dear Editor: I am deeply concerned about the academic standards at Savan- nah State College. I am wondering if you or someone on the staff with some authority could answer some questions for me? First of all. concerning the mis- understanding of the "Teach in," it seems that some of the faculty members think that the white professors are the cause of it, and I wonder why? They also think that the "teach in" was related to the incident of Thursday night. May 11, 1967. The events of that evening did not come out of the "teach in." I want to make it known that we want to he noted academically, and not so much socially. We, the student body, love and respect Dr. Howard Jordan, Jr., our president. We want him to continue with his progress. I per- sonally think he is doing a good job, but some of the members on the faculty are ill-equipped, and they are not qualified to teach. Some of them pass students on whether they like them or not. The teachers that are poorly equipped in turn cripple the stu- dents, which causes a lot of stu- dents to be sent home or to be placed on probation. If a student is so fortunate as to make it through Savannah State College, he in turn goes back to high school or elementary school and cripples his students. 1 deeply feel that the faculty should be analyzed because some of the Negro teachers think that the white instructors are "brain- washing" us, but we are actually finally making a "great awaken- ing." After all, the students suffer the consequences. Some of the faculty need to make the "awak- ening" also. Sylvester Singleton President Jordan answers complaints. FACULTY ANSWERS CHARGES Editor: It i> the time. I believe, to clarify my position: my reasons for coming to Savannah State, my objectives, and my intentions for next year. It is unfortunate that certain rumors are being spread about my being an "outside agitator" who is trying to bring about "chaos" at Savannah State and then move on at the end of this academic year. The college ad- ministration has helped to create many rumors with certain recent statements. It seems that I should first state- why I am at Savannah State. After completing all course re- quirements toward the Ph.D. de- gree in political science at the University of Iowa, 1 thought I would get some teaching experi- ence while researching my doc- toral dissertation on Southern politics, including the last Georgia election. It was through Dr. Robert Rcid, former Dean of Faculty at SSC, that I came to this college. He convinced me that the school was moving progressively forward, and that there would be an opportunity and a challenge to build a political science depart- ment. Nothing "revolutionary" here! It was shocking to find out that Dr. Rcid was leaving SSC to return to Tuskegee Institute at the end of last summer, and that Mr. E. J. Josey, former SSC librarian, was also going. It seemed the progressive forces were leaving, but it was good to see new people joining the faculty. It just happened that some of these people were also Caucasian, Those that left were Negro. Last summer while teaching in the Savannah Slate Upward Bound project, I was approached by Miss Marva DcLoach who asked me to become advisor to the campus chapter of the NAACP. because the advisor. Mr. Josey, was leaving. It was from my advisor- ship with this group that the idea of a group for Armstrong-Savan- nah State students should be formed. The group calling itself SCORE came from this idea. The doors of both groups are open to the administration, faculty, students, and community to see what "agitation" is being created there ! One should not rely on second-hand reports of the pro- ceedings! I have taken the President at his word when he claimed that Savannah State has full "academic freedom," and my classes in social science have been a forum for the clash of different ideas and opinions. I have encouraged my students to disagree with me, and I try to get them to base their opinions on fact and reason. About the most "revolutionary" thing here is that I have expected my students to do the work, to read beyond the textbook, to write, to think, and to meet me half-way in academic pursuits. The door of my classroom is open to the ad- ministration, faculty, students, and community to see what "agitation" is being created there! One should not rely on second- hand reports of the proceedings! The "Soap Box Sound Off" was my idea, but the "Teach-In" of May 10th was not, but rather came from an idea of Mr. Josey 's (an "outside agitator?") , after (Continued on Page S) The Tiger's Roar Savannah Stale College Dear Sir: Confusion and controversy seem to be reigning at a time when all persons associated wilh Savannah Slate College should be engaging in clear thinking, honest revalua- tion, and forthright analysis of the situation. Current criticism of Negro col- leges by men like David Rirsman, Christopher Jencks, and Earl Mc- Grath has stimulated much dis- cussion on this campus and that is good. Colleges are, in Clark Kerr's words, "marketplaces of ideas," and when we have ceased to discuss ideas freely, no mailer how uncongenial they may be to our accepted ways of thinking, we have ceased lo fulfill the most im- portant obligation of a college. There is a bad side lo lliis dis- cusion, however. Unfortunately, we are making a racial issue out of a question lhat was and is meant to be an academic issue only. This is not to say that the Croblcms of the Negro college can c divorced from the bitter seeds of segregation from which these institutions sprang; it is merely to suggest that we must under- stand our situation in terms of what we are actually achieving compared to what we should be achieving. If the foundations of the past are sandy, we cannot build on them. We must seek new foundations anchored in the reali- ties of ihe present and looking forward to the ideals of the future. I am particularly concerned, as a new member of the SSC faculty, that allegations of "brainwashing" have been casually flung about. If exposure to new ideas and the consequent revaluations of ac- cepted ways of thinking and act- ing are considered "brainwash- ing," then we must consider the great minds of our civilization, from Socrates to Sartre, guilty. If instead we realize that new ideas and the free, untrammeled pur- suit and understanding of them is the primary function of a col- lege, then we will have matured considerably in our striving for a higher education in the most meaningful and significant terms. I, for one, have faith in the ability of the students at SSC to judge the matter for themselves: to rely on facts, not on some so- called "brainwashed" idea; to seek guidance where necessary; and to consult their own conscience and experience when guidance fails to help. The Reisman report, the McGrath report, and other materials pertinent to these studies are available in ihe library, and I invite all concerned members of the academic community to read and study ihese reports intelli- gently and objectively. We should be honest enough to ask ourselves what our values really are, and whether these values are consistent with ihe aims of higher education as they are understood in modern America. Perhaps some readers have noticed that I have used the plural pronouns "we" and "our." This is the way I think of the situation and my role in it. I am part of the college, not an "outsider." If my race is a barrier to understand- ing the problems at the college, I cannot help it. I can judge and (Continued on Page 8) THE TIGER'S ROAR P( CTC 1. Isadora Jenkins Interviews Lt.

May. 1967 THE TIGER'S ROAR James Dallas Parks James Dallas Parks, noted Negro artist, lecturer and educator, lec- tured to the student body of SSC on May 3, in the auditorium of John F. Kennedy Fine Arts Center. According to the artist, "Paint- ing with me is a way to express what I see and feel. Portraying the Negro people has been most fascinating to me. The greatest in- fluence on my painting has come from Thomas Hart Benton, whom I have known personally for many years and who I had the pleasure of assisting a brief time." Mr. Parks was born in St. Louis, Mis- souri. He graduated from Bradley University with a B.S. degree and then received a Masters' of Art de- gree from the University of Iowa. He is listed in Who's Who in Mid- dle-West, Who's Who in American Art. Directory of American Schol- ars and International Blue Book. He has written articles for several national professional journals. Lt. Governor Delivered Talk To Student Body George T. Smith, Lt. Governor of the state of Georgia, delivered a short talk to the faculty and stu- dent body of SSC on June 15. Lt. Governor Smith was introduced by Anton F. Solms, Jr., Regent, First District of the University System of Georgia. This was the Lt. Gov- ernor's first visit to the campus of SSC. The auditorium of Ken- nedy Fine Arts Building was the scene of the delivery. Education was the topic of Smith's, speech. In essence, the im- portance of education was stressed. Education, according to the speak- er, is the key that can unlock the door to all advantages. Open House Sunday, May 14, was the date of much excitement throughout the women's dormitories at SSC. The annual Open House was being held for the female students here on campus. The young ladies were preparing for days, and some even weeks for this event. There were window washings, mopping and waxing and the usual house (room) cleaning chores. Many mothers and guardians were pres- ent as an added attraction. Many of the young ladies served their guests refreshments and the like. It was not too unusual to see young gentlemen with their white hankies reaching and dusting in some corners. This was in order to see how their female friends rate as housekeepers. The Lockett Hall dormitory council had a refreshment table set up in their lobby, at a guess, to lure die fellows from Lester and Hubert Halls. Many artistic signs could have been seen on the doors of many of the young ladies. In reverse, many females visited Peacock Hall, to check on the fel- lows' housekeeping abilities. Many of the fellows were reportedly un- prepared for the event. The beau- tiful rooms of Peacock Hall would answer the dream of any young lady, as far as design and facili- ties are concerned. Many young ladies had guest lists available for the signing. Sev- eral notorious characters decided to take entire pages, it was re- ported. All in all, the Open House was a success. Many young ladies were beaming with happiness as a result of it.

Mrs. Lester beamed with happiness and surprise. Over 26 mothers and guardians came to our dorm on Mother's Day. The halls of CHH were running over with welcome to them and our other guests dur- ing our Annual Open House. Many young ladies served refreshments or offered candy to their visitors. Oddly enough, our president, Barbara Mobley, was awarded the Camilla Hubert A eh ievemen t Award on Awards Day, for attain- ing the highest academic average in the dormitory for the past aca- demic year. 1966-67 School Year In Retrospect SEPTEMBER "Over 500 Freshmen Enrolled" The freshmen were orientated into the college family during "Orientation Week."

Faculty Answers (Continued from Pttgc 3) his talk at a recent SCORE meet- ing. The purpose of the "Teach- In" was to relate the Rcisman re- port to the academic situation at SSC, to identif) the college's strengths and weaknesses, find to reveal where wc need ii improve. It was to bring aboul constructive, nc-l destructive, thinking concern- ing possible needs foi change and improvement. Nothing "rcvolu- tiaua) y" lure! The disturbances on campus the past week were not caused, sup- ported, or condoned by either the student NAACP or by SCORE. Rumoi - persist that the leadership of the "Tcnch-In" and disturbance are linked, and that 1 am behind both. These rumors are slanderous and arc untrue! The administra- tion insists we have n democracy <>n campus, that one word against another is not enough, but that .u tuul e\ idence is needed. As rumors and gossip fly, one might ask f^r actual evidence, and the burden is on those who make the charges. Finally, my plans for next year include Savannah State. I have no intention to resign or quit, nor have 1 done so. The rumors ili.it I plan to move on next month are untrue! This, then, completes my pur- DOSi objectives, and intentions. I support progressive, purposeful i h inge, and not change for the sake of change, and certainly not revolutionary anarchism. It seems ironic to me that a Caucasian would be linked with Black Power or Black Nationalism (Oh, what would the SNCC leadership think!), while the administration is pictured as the defender of the status quo, middle class virtue, personified by white oligarchic rule in Georgia. I feel it is time to quit resorting to emotionalism based on racial appeals, which is spread by gossip and not by ideas and reason. We have academic and social problems right here on the campus of Savannah State College, and whatever "outside or inside agi- tators" do exist, as Mayor Ivan Allen of Atlanta so rationally put it after the racial disturbances of last summer in that city, they merely reflect but do not cause those problems. To end the ap- peal of the agitators is to solve the problems through realistic programs. If it is contended that we do not have any problems needing solutions, then why the unrest and division among the students, and why the unwilling- ness on the part of the adminis- tration and a good part of the faculty to discuss the situation at Savannah Slate? Is the adminis- tration only capable of telling us, after a * week's prior notification and invitation to speak at the 'Teach-In, 1 ' that we are "second- rate" to Harvard? So I encourage that the administration, faculty. Professional Baseball On the professional scene it seems as though the Los Angeles Dodgers and Baltimore Orioles are having trying limes. The Dodgers traded off their speed merchant, Maury Wills and hoped for the best. However, this with the lost of Sandy Koufax was too much for the old "bums" from Brooklyn to overcome. The retire- ment "I Koufax and trade of Wills has denied the Dodgers' champion- ship hopes. They are now crappling with the Mets to avoid [he cellar. Wow! What a differ- ence a year makes. The Orioles slill have iheir forces intact but they have not been able to generate last year's vital spark. Track It seems as though Tommie Smith of San Jose Stale i- quirkl\ taking over as the "world's fastest human." In recent track meels Smith has broken world records in the 400 meters and 440 with limes of 44.8 and 43.1 respec- tively. These marks break Adolph Plummer's I960 Olympic marks. Well sports fans that's aboul all from the old ink pad for now. Remember fans, it's not always whether you have won or lost but bow you played the game. Faculty Answers (Continual from Page 3) evaluate only from my point of view and hope lo make it clear to others that I am concerned with education, not race. When I first came to SSC, I was not even aware of the fact that it was a "pre- dominantly Negro" college. My plan Mas to find an institution at which I could get two years of teaching experience before going back to graduate school for a Ph.D. The fact that the institution I chose is "Negro" makes no difference lo me. The academic situation at SSC, in fact, has given me considerably more leaching experience than I could have gained elsewhere, as it Is rare for a new leather with only an M.A. to lecture and teach upper-level courses. For this opportunity, I am grateful. Bui gratitude must not be confused with acceptance and. quite frankly. I deplore some of the things I have witnessed al SSC, My criticisms, however, are not negative they are intended to have a positive effect on the campus. This effect can be realized only if there is a sincere effort toward mutual understanding on all sides. The nebulous and totally unfounded rumors about "ulterior motives" on my or anyone else's part do not represent a sincere effort at understanding, and those who cast such aspersions are filling the slabs of the "market- place of ideas" with cheap mer- chandise, merchandise which I trust will not be bought by think- ing people. 1 have no intentions of "hitting and running" as some rumors would have it. 1 full) intend to remain at SSC through the sum- mer and the following academic year. If there is doubt in anyone's mind as to the sincerity of the efforts to raise standards at SSC, I wish he would bring them up al the leach-in scheduled for Wednesday, May 17. This is the only available public forum for the open discussion of problems and students sit down in an open forum, and discuss rationally and openly the academic and social situation at Savannah State, and see how it relates to other com- parable schools in Georgia. One final comment should be made. It seems that if racial progress in the stale and academic excellence at the college are to come, they will come primarily through the linking of the liberal Caucasian and Negro pressure in the political arena, not by doing what is considered to be expedient. And it is expedient to ignore and to hide the present problems. David S. Roberts, Assistant Professor of Social Science Dr. F. L. Forbes Banquet Speaker Dr. Frank L. Forbes SSC Athletes Feted At Awards Banquet By Bobby Adams Morning News Correspondent Dr. Frank L. Forbes, professor of Physical Education and Athletic Director at Morehouse College in Atlanta, was the guest speaker Saturday night. May 20 at SSC's Annual All-Sport Banquet held in Adams Hall. Forbes, a former coach at Morehouse, spoke on the topic "My Athlete." He went to say that his type of athlete was the fellow that believes in himself and knows that this is essential if he expects to be a great competitor, and has intellectual quality and self confidence. Finally Forbes said that bis tvpe of athlete must be the fellow who can examine himself and be able to take what he finds and use it to his greatest ability. A total of 53 citations were ]> resented to football, basketball, and track players with the actual jackets, sweaters, and letters given mi that following Monday at the athletic director's office. Special awards were presented to football standout Judson Brown, voted the MVP by the SSC coach- ing staff and track star William Alderman, who won the MVP award in the annual Southeastern Athletic Conference track and field meet held here earlier this year. among all members of the SSC community, and I personally en- courage everyone to use it to fur- ther his understanding of the cur- rent situation. 1 firmly believe we can solve our problems but only if we face up to them squarely and honestly, forgetting the inequities of the pasl and looking hopefully to the opportunities of the future.

Or Campus (By the author of "Rally Round the Flag, Boys! 1 ', with MaxQhulman "Dobie Gillis," etc.) REQUIEM FOR A SQUARE You, like any other lovable, clean-living, freckle-faced American kid, want to be a BMOC. How can you make it? Well sir, there are several ways, none of which will work. You're too puny to be an athlete, too lazy to be a valedic- torian, and too hairy to run for Homecoming Queen. As for becoming a best-dressed man, how are you going to buy clothes with a miser for a father? Are you licked then? Is there no way to make BMOC? Yes, there is! And you can do it! Do what? This: Become a hippie! Get cool! Get alienated! Have an Identity Crisis ! Be one of the Others ! How? Well sir, to become a hippie, simply follow these five simple rules: 1. Read all of Tolkien in the original dwarf. 2. Have your Sophomore Slump in the freshman year. 3. Wear buttons that say things like this : NATIONALIZE DAIRY QUEEN ASTHMATICS. UNITE LEGALIZE APPLE BUTTER HANDS OFF AIR POLLUTION 4. Go steady with a girl who has long greasy hair, a gui- tar, enlarged pores, and thermal underwear. 5. Attend Happenings regularly. This last item may require some explanation, for it is possible that Happenings haven't reached your campus yet. Be assured they will because Happenings are the big- gest college craze since mononucleosis. A Happening, in case you don't know, is the first form- less art form. Things just happen. For example, eighty naked men come out and squirt each other with fire hoses containing tinted yogurt. Then eighty more naked men come out and light birthday candles in the navels of the first eighty men. Then one girl, clothed, comes out and pulls three thousand feet of sausage casing through her pierced ear. Then eighty more naked men come out and eat a station wagon. There is, of course, a musical accompaniment to all these fun things. Usually it is "Begin the Beguinel' played by 26 trench mortars, a drop forge, and a rooster. There used to be, some years ago, still another require- ment for becoming a hippie: a man had to have a beard. But no longer. Beards were worn in the past not so much as a protest, but because shaving was such a painful experience. Then along came Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades. Today if you don't want to shave, well, that's your hangup, isn't it, baby? I mean when you've got a blade like Personna that tugs not neither does it scrape, what's your copout, man? I mean like get with it; you're living in the past. Shaving used to hurt, used to scratch, used to gouge, used to give you all kinds of static. But not since Personna. It's a gas, man. It's a doozy; it's mom's apple pie. You dig? I mean, man, you still want a beard? Crazy! But you don't have to turn your face into a slum, do you? Shave around the bush, baby, neatly and nicely with Personna. I mean like Personna comes in double-edge style and Injector style too. I mean like any way you try it, you gotta like like it. Hey, man, like hoie about doubling your shaving cool? Like how aboul wilting those crazy whiskers with some Burma-Shave? Like regular or menthol? Like have you got n better friend than your kisser? Like treat it right, right? Ye-ye! Score (Continued jrom Page 3) students: Hence the high school dropout rate. Those who do make it through high school don't have the real hunger for education. They enter college, usually a small state college, behind in not only basic skills, but incentive too. This completes the cycle and also sets the Negro back, educationally, a little bit more. It was stated dur- ing a recent campus forum that when a student graduates from Savannah State College he has little more than a high school .education: from the cycle we can see how this may be so. The real danger of this system is not the fact that the Negro is progressively falling behind the white, but rather that he becomes satisfied with the system and perpetuates it. Fellow students, we have to break this system! If we don't we will never, as a race, be able to compete educationally with our white counterparts. Jobs are open- ing, racial barriers are being dropped, and industry is looking for qualified Negroes but they can't be found. Start "today." Look at your educational achievements: Are they adequate or inadequate? Evaluate these questions not only by the standards of this institution but also by the standards of other colleges, Negro and white, by the standards of industry, and finally by the standards of the increas- ingly complex world around you. The President's Message Dr. Benjamin E. Mays To Speak At DNGRATULATIONS upon the completion of your work here at ^ * 1 CONGRATULATIONS upon the completion of your work here at Savannah Stale College. We all hope that you have done your hest in mastering the skills of your disciplines so that you will go out to make an outstanding contribution to our society. Whatever you do. in the years ahead. 1 implore you to always set high standards for yourself; require great things of yourself: and never excuse yourself for mediocre performances. To live up to your capacity is a moral imperative for in the words of Shakespeare, in Hamlet 'This above all: To thine ownself be true and it must follow as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man." As you leave your Alma Mater. I want to take tins opportunity to tell you how much we. of the administration, faculty, and staff, admire you and your generation. We admire vou as individuals important to the development of our free society. We applaud you as skeptics who decline to accept traditions passively without thinking them through for yourselves. You and your generation have dared to break with the past, to question attitudes, and to probe for answers and new truths. We, in turn, respect your rejection of vaiue-less concepts, hvpocrisv, and superficiality. We endorse and encourage your skepticism, your demands, and your desires for independence. You have sought to bring new flavor into our lives. You have asked to be directed and guided in a manner that would not turn you into carbon copies of a previous generation, for you are tomorrow's leaders. Yet I remind you that the wide scope of knowledge required today by a highly technical and industrialized society demands that you think fast, run fast, write fast, and work fast. We. of this generation, recognize fully vour almost limitless creative potential medicine and science, philosophy, poetry, art, church, and state will be affected by you and your leadership. You are the men and women who will find the cure for cancer, heart disease, develop better techniques for teaching, write more meaningful poetry, create more fascinating art, enrich the undeveloped sections of the world and hopefully end all poverty and war. With your skeptical and humanistic outlook and your scorn for the superficial, you will bring to the future a new sense of morality which will make this world a belter one in which to live. So remember, your energies and your abilities have brought you thus far. It is even more important that you rely on these same energies and abilities from this point on. The responsibility is yours you have demanded it. It is up to you to make a better free society and world. You are our hope for the future, One final word, remember always that you are SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE. The College is only as great or as small as its alumni. When the alumni succeeds. Savannah State College succeeds. When the alumni fail, Savannah State College fails. Savannah State College will never, no never, release its graduates from the expectation that whatever they do in life they will do it well; and they will do it with honor, dignity, and self-respect. Good luck and God bless each of you.

They moved to the Savannah State College campus, unloaded their luggage, and joined together in an hour of music, entertainment and refreshments. This was the grand opening of Savannah State's Upward Bound Project. That unforgettable day is in the past now. It has taken its place on the historic record of Upward Round Project and another his- toric, but sad day is fast approach- ing. This day is August 18. the end of the eight weeks summer session. There is, however, a con- solation. A follow up program on Saturdays is to begin with regular school. Perhaps you've asked what's so great about school and education especially during the summer months when everybody is sup- posed to be vacationing. Well, there are some 125 young people around and about Chatham County who will say "everything" when there's a good mixture of work and play. To get an idea of what is meant by this, take a peep at the program's many activities: Classes started with a "bang," instructors and students seemed to compete with others in experi- mental methodology. The Upward Bound Project of Savannah is headed by Mr. Whittington B. Johnson, who is also a member of the Savannah State College faculty during regular school sessions. Mr. John- son is assisted by Mrs. Martha Wilson, also an SSC faculty mem- ber. There is a Director of Guid- ance, assisted by a Guidance Counselor for girls, and several students who are actually "live-in" tutor-counselors. Mr. Johnson and Mrs. Wilson also have at their disposal a director of special events and a small clerical staff. The instructors and tutors work- ing in this project make up a total of 41 professional and pro- fessional bound people. The pre-planning week was be- gun with a visit from OEO's executive assistant for the South- eastern Region, Mrs. Judith Ben- ton of Washington, D. C. Mrs. Benton was able to answer staff questions concerning the project and its anticipated effects upon our society. The OEO consensus was that the project was working as planned. Mrs. Wilson, as assistant di- rector, was responsible for the areas of classroom instruction .h, s chiefly in communica- tions. The coordinator-instructors for these areas are Robert Holt, Mrs. Wilhemenia Dean, and Dr. Waller Laffer. There also are in- struction in such areas as music, art and drama, as well as extra- curricular activities. A study of this staff structure reveals that the underlying aim of the project is to reach each student's basic needs as time and facilities will permit. This project is one method by which this vast "Societal Re- serve" can be exposed and im- plemented. The remainder of Upward Bound pre-planning week was spent organizing the project's program for this summer. Each Upward Bounder will participate in a follow-up program in which he can report other needs and also have additional instruction by relatively the same people who instructed him in his summer session. L'pward Bounders receive no grades, since the emphasis of the project is on unrestricted instruc- tion with the over-all view of the student in mind. Naturally, the success or failure of the project in Savannah, as well as any one of the 248 other such programs in the United States will greatly depend upon the ability of the in- structor who should be able to create an atmosphere which will point up the potential strength of each student. Georgia by a Savannah Stale Col- lege professor ami an SSC science display concluded the weekly cal- endar ( if events at Savannah Stale College, During the two-day conference of the Georgia Association of Su- pervision and Curriculum Devel- opment, at the Univeraily of Georgia, July 16-17, Dr. Thelma Harmond spoke on the "Ilumani- zation Movement in American Education." Dr. Harmond stated that the humanist of loday is aware of a variety of social, po- litical and military forces which greatly influence American life. Dr. Harmond, who heads the Department of Secondary Educa- tion at Savannah State College, believes that these forces can serve lo improve the world if ihey are utilized prudently. "W he t he r these forces become threats to our social order or potentials for a new and better world depends on how man uses them in his rela- tionship with others. "The realization of the poten- tials demand conviction, courage, and leadership from individuals and groups who seek the good life by way of intellectual arid humane social skills," Dr. Harmond stated. "Such commitment would be wurth whatever is demanded, for the slakes which we seek to gain are mortal ones."

Department of Education, states that the Education Work- shop for Elementary and Sec- ondary School Teachers at Savan- nah State College is designed to meet the special needs and inter- ests of in-service teachers. To elicit information as to the effectiveness of the workshop, a cross-section poll was conducted to oblain the views of the work- shop participants on several ques- tions concerning the experiences and needs that are being met in the workshop. The workshoppers echoed vari- ous sentiments. The questions asked were: What do you think of the workshop? What are your aims and purposes with regard to the education workshop? The typical comments of par- ticipants to the questions were: I have met many teachers who teach a variety of subjects and share some of the same problems that 1 have in my classroom. The course also takes the place of practice teaching. It also affords you the chance to teach in front of the consultants and participants of the workshop. One also receives constructive criticism as to whether or not one's teaching is effective. We (in-service teach- ers )are able to observe one an- other so that we may get new ideas from each other. One per- sonal obseravtion is that I am able to see the Negro point of view better and this will enable me to set a better example in my school on the teaching of mixed or integrated groups. The rela- tionships in the workshop are very good. One is also able to make many new friends and cooperate with members of the group. Well, the workshop is different because I was not familiar with what a workshop is supposed to do. Thus far it has been profit- able because you can express your opinions freely as others express theirs. This within itself is a learning situation, as well as hav- ing the guidance of those in au- thority. We learn from experi- ence and the professors at SSC have given the group this experi- ence. The professors are very democratic in making new meth- ods and materials in teaching available to us, because they allow the workshop group free expres- sion. I like the group work be- cause it has given me insight into the lifet of the actual study of teaching. It has also helped me to develop empathy. I'm just looking forward to the next three or four weeks of the workshop so that I may retain and learn as much as possible. It's a valuable educative experi- ence. The workshop provides those people who have not had an opportunity in the classroom situation. Well, I think it gives freedom and time to think out problems in light of what you read. In the workshop you have ample time to read about new trends in educa- tion that your work and commit- ments in the academic year pre- vent you from accomplishing. The members of my group are very cooperative. The facilities at Sa- vannah State are very good. This workshop has proven to be of great benefit in helping me broaden and modify my outlook in procedures in education. I am certain that I will be a better teacher for having attended the workshop. I am very fortunate to be here. I am impressed with the sound experience of the consultants, and the ease with which they bring clarity to the many intricate chan- nels in the study of education. I am here to broaden my methods of teaching. I think that the workshop has proven to be of interest. Here at SSC I have gained information that will help me in my teaching situations. I want to gain clearer insight on stimulating students' interest in mathematics courses. I think that the workshop is a place where in-service teachers gain an insight on various teach- ing techniques. My purpose for being in the workshop is to solve various problems that confront mc in o teaching situation. The workshop is helpful in solving problems in teaching. I have gained a lot of information from the workshop. My purpose is to satisfy the certification for student leaching and to learn bet- ter techniques of teaching. The workshop is a good place fo rteachers to meet and discuss the problems of youth today. It also gives participants an oppor- tunity as well to realize that many of the problems that confront classroom teachers, regardless of race. It also gives an opportunity to develop good working relation- ships with the workshop consult- ants. I have a confession to make: when it was suggested that I take this course for accreditation, and not having been to school for some thirty years, it's easy to ap- preciate my trepidation. I had manv misgivings about the whole idea. I can truthfully say I have enjoyed every minute of my par- ticipation in the workshop, not only because of the excellent peo- ple who are a part of it but also because of the fact that I have learned there is a good deal more to teaching that just standing up in front of a room of young- sters who are waiting for you to contribute. It gives me a better perspective as far as my relation- ship with another race is con- cerned. To be very frank, more people should attend a workshop so it can give them a completely different image from that which they may have had. The com- plete environment at SSC is ex- tremely conducive for making one a fuller and more complete person.

Department of State has launched a special recruiting program to find minority group college graduates who wish to pursue a career in public service abroad. As described by Eddie N. Wil- liams, Director of State's EEO Program, the recruiting drive is aimed at candidates with Bachelor's. Master's, Ph.D., or Law Degrees with a special inter- est in diplomacy and foreign affairs. "We're lookinc for the young, dynamic, intelligent in- dividual who wants to serve his country abroad as well as at home." Williams said. Academic areas of special interest to the State Department include history, political science, economics, in- ternational relations, administra- tion, languages, law, and science. "Many qualified minority candidates tend to shy away from a career in foreign affairs because of the mistaken idea that their applications are not wanted or because of their concern over meeting the entrance require- ments," Mr. Williams observed. This is one of the greatest obstacles the Department must overcome in its efforts to attract and employ minority candidates. These misconceptions have hampered efforts to create a more representative Foreign Service ; therefore, the State Department is making a special appeal for minority candidates to fill junior officer positions and has arranged a special three or four year pro- gram for them, both overseas and in the United Stales. After this period it is expected that these junior officers will be fully quali- fied and prepared for a career in the Foreign Service Officer Corps. All candidates should be pre- pared to work in Washington as well as at any of the 280 overseas posts in a wide variety of jobs in the political, economic, adminis- trative, and consular fields, de- pending on their interests, qualifi- cations, and the needs of the Service. Special training will be provided. Salaries will range from S6.451 to S8.979 per annum, depending on academic background, work experience, and age of the candi- date. At overseas posts salaries will be supplemented by housing and other Foreign Service allow- ances. Applications ( completed Form 57) should be sent to Mr. Wil- liams in Room 7332 Department of State, Washington, D. C. 20520. Additional information about this special program will be provided each applicant. Dr. Benjamin E. Mays (Continued from Page 1) the Shiloh Baptist Church, At- lanta, Georgia. For one year, 1925-26, he was an instructor of English in the State College of South Carolina at Orangeburg. From 1926-28, he served as Execu- tive Secretary of the Tampa Urban League, Tampa, Florida. From 1928-30, he was National Student Secretary of the YMCA.

Joiner When Governor Lester Maddox praised the Lowndes County School Administrators for resegregating the county's schools, the writer's mind turned to race riots and the "long hot summers." America is experiencing another "long hot summer" and militant Negroes predict more humid weather before rain comes. In the middle of these "long hot summers" stand many Americans, reacting to the Negro's chaotic moods, like witch doctors. Literally, these Americans are praying for rain to cool the "long hot summers." These are the Americans who favor deterring violence through violent means. Such actions are imprudent. In seeking an answer to the causes of riots, the Negro's past must be examined. Those who see riots only as the Negro's way of getting free merchandise deserve a free course in Negro History. While the writer sees the injustices of angry rioters, the Negro's dissatisfaction is valid. History explains this. What we fail to understand is that the Negro is seeking plastic surgery to bide a scar which plagued him aboard a ship, many years back. The scar, inferiority. The ship, Sally. Her merchandise, slaves. Aboard this vessel began the first step toward superiority of races. The thought has remained with man since. Through the years the Negro has come to realize his inferior state. Socially, politically, and economically, he is, as a group, always given the feast of all. He has been a spectator to the mainstream of our society too long. Now he wants to be a participant. But he observes much of his own nation as they reject him. He observes whole states as they ignore him. He observes state govern- ments as they gamble and sometime lose federal money to maintain segregated systems, and cripple his children. He observes Congress as it rejects model city programs and let him remain a ghetto dweller. He observes the injustices against him. His cry in the ghetto has gone unheard for decades. He seeks a way to voice his discontentment; therefore, he riots and yells "if I don't get my share, nobody will!" If this prosperous nation could comprehend that the segregated system breeds violence, Negro militants would not be in operation. Witch doctors, pray for rain. It will not come, though. Not until injustices are lifted. Robert L.

By Gwendolyn Cutter Well, let's start with the latest tennis costumes. You may have a smashing serve, but you'll score a smashing fashion look, too. if you show up on the courts this summer in one of the eye-catching new outfits like the starkly ele- gant little white tennis sheath ac- cented in red-embroidered signs of the Zodiac down the front. In a gleaming white corded twill, this short, sleeveless little tennis cos- tume features the June and July sign of the Crab, but all signs are available. This particular style comes from Teddy Tingling, the British de- signer who makes those sometimes controversial, much publicized costumes for leading girl tennis players. Tingling says fabrics like cre- pons, cloques. whipcords and sail- cloths are perfect for tennis. He explains that's because they're available in daeron polyester or dacron blends, and this fiber im- parts rugged strength and light- ness of weight. The 1967 wave of zero-cool fashions also includes some that have been adapted from European sports car racing outfits. Leading the list are the cutout shortie gloves inspired by those worn by the racing drivers. Then there are the striped hipslung belts with giant buckles to be worn with hip- ster pants. And, to be real up-to- the minute, don't miss the over- size wrist watches with oversize bands. Most of these very wide bands are made of leather, in white, black, or a bright green, blue, red, or yellow. Savannah State College Administrator Appointed Pnblieations Advisor Wilton C. Scott. Director of Public Relations and Alumni Affairs at Savannah State College, has been appointed Publications Advisor to Southern Universities Student Government Association. The appointment was made by ._. . Clint Bolte. Chairman of SUSGA. In a letter to Scott, Bolte stated that "the time has come for SUSGA's Executive Council to be aligned with more renowned au- thorities in every field of student activities." As Publications Advisor, Scott is responsible for coordinating SUSGA's newsletter to all member schools once a quarter. Scott will also coordinate SUSGA's last pub- lications' workshop next year at the University of Florida. Recognitions and appointments are nothing new to Scott, One achievement seems to have led to another. Harmon Caldwell, ex-Chancel- lor of the University System of Georgia, stated that Scott "is one of the outstanding men of the country in his field . . . His achievements have brought to him a number of national recogni- tions . . ." During World War II, Scott was awarded the first Superior Accomplishment Award given to a civilian of the armed forces in the United States. The Congressional Record of 1958 cited Scott for receiving the Columbia Scholastic Press Associ- ation Gold Key Award for out- standing achievement in college journalism. Scott was the first Negro ever to receive this award in the 34 years it bad been pre- sented. SUSGA includes ninety-one col- leges and universities. Among member schools are Auburn Uni- versity, University of Alabama, Florida State University, Univer- sity of Miami, University of Tampa. Emory University, Geor- gia Institute of Technology. Uni- versity of Georgia, Centenary. Menu and Cooking Cues It's cherry time again and cherries, whether eaten out of hand or in a salad or dessert, are a delicious treat for the family. You might serve them "as is" for a lunch or dinnertime dessert or at snacktime. The French put the cherries in a big glass bowl and let them float in chilled water and ice cubes. For this treatment, it's best to have cherries with the stems still intact. Or add fresh sweet cherries to a compote. One combination we favor is made with the chilled pitted cherries and melon balls. If you like, you can add simple syrup to the compote but flavor the syrup with fresh lime juice and fresh mint. Cherries make a delightful salad, too, and of course they're great in desserts like cherry pie or cherry tarts, especially when topped with scoops of vanilla ice cream. Serve a cherry dessert today, and see what a hit it will make. For the entree we suggest thin slices of veal, sauteed in butter with minced parsley, a casserole of noodles with butter and sesame seeds, or with mushrooms. Some cooks like to combine an undi- luted can of cream of mushroom soup with the noodles. Asparagus or spinach teams well with this main course, and a salad of mixed greens makes a good accompani- ment. This menu is a good one to serve indoors, or for a porch sup- per. Modem Math Workshop at SSC John B. Clemmons. head of the Mathematics Department at Sa- vannah State, states that the Mod- ern Mathematics Workshop for Elementary School teachers at the college has twelve in-service teach- ers enrolled. Many of these teachers are tak- ing the modern mathematics course to satisfy requirements of the Georgia State Department of Education. Another purpose of the in-service teachers is to work with new trends, materials, proce- dures in mathematics, and to bring their method of instruction up to date. Mr. Clemmons states that the scope of the course includes the recent recommendations made by the National Committee on Mathe- matics for Elementary School teachers. The topics undertaken in the course will include: theory of sets, working with number opera- tions and different bases, Napier's bone theory. The in-service teachers enrolled in the course are: Mrs. Doris S. Greene, Twin City: Mrs. William Leaphart, Waycross; Mrs. Janie Smith. Brunswick; Mrs. Leila Brown, Atlanta; Mrs. Elnora B. Cannick, Camilla; Mrs. Beatrice Brown, Savannah ; Mrs. Odessa 0. Childers, Newington; Miss Ar- eola G. Harris, Newington; Mrs. Aletha Baisdew, Brunswick; Mrs. Daisy B. Alston, Collins; Mrs. Dorothy B. Glass, Atlanta; Mrs. Gloria T. Minis, Savannah; and Willie S. Dinkins, Gainesville. Technical Science Blooming at SSC By Robert L. Joiner, II The B. F. Hubert Technical Science Center, Savannah State College, is a complex of four buildings which cost more than one and a half million dollars to build and equip. The center, which houses a number of surveying, processing and electronic laboratories, con- tains a room filled with scien- tifically designed American Auto- mobile Association driver training equipment. Twenty-five in-service teachers gathered there for a workshop in driver education July 5-21. This workshop is sponsored by the Georgia State Department of Education. Each participating teacher will receive a Grant-in- Aid from the state. Trade, Industrial Ed. Workshop Thirty-five vocational education teachers from area vocational- technical schools and comprehen- sive high schools located in all sections of Georgia will attend a three-week Trade and Industrial Education Workshop at Savannah State College from July 24 to Au- gust 9. This workshop will he conducted by Dr. Clyde W. Hall, Chairman of the Division of Tech- nical Sciences, and is primarily concerned with the supervisory and administrative responsibilities of the trade and industrial educa- tion teacher. Special considera- tion will be given ways and means of handling school shop supplies, records, equipment, products, budgets, power and numerous other administrative and super- visory functions involved in voca- tional teaching. fea* On Campus with MaxShuIman (By the aitlhor of "Rally Round the Flag, Boys!", "Dobie Gillis," elc.) HOW TO GET A'S IN ALL YOUR FINAL EXAMS In today's column, the last of the school year, I don't intend to be funny. (I have achieved this objective many times throughout the year, but this time it's on purpose.) The hour is wrong for levity. Final exams are looming. Have you got a chance? I say yes! I say America did not become the world's foremost producer of stove bolts and cotter pins by running away from a fight! You wiMpass your finals! How? By studying. How? By learning mnemonics. Mnemonics, the science of memory aids, was, as we all know, invented by the great Greek philosopher Mnemon in 52G B.C. (This, incidentally, was only one of the inven- tions of this fertile Athenian. He also invented the house cat, the opposing thumb, and, most important, the stair- case. Before the staircase people were forced willy-nilly to live out their lives on the ground tloor, and many grew cross as bears. Especially Demosthenes who was elected Consul of Athens six times but never served because he was unable to get up to the otlice of the Commissioner of Oaths on the third tloor to be sworn in. But after Mnemon's staircase, Demosthenes got to the third floor easy as pie to Athens' sorrow, as it turned out. Demosthenes, his temper shortened by years of confinement to the ground floor, soon embroiled his countrymen in a series of sense- less wars with the Medes, the Persians, and the Los Angeles Rams. This later became known as the Missouri Compromise.) But I digress. We were discussing mnemonics, which are nothing more than aids to memory-little jingles to help you remember names, dates, and places. For example : Columbus sailed the ocean blue In fourteen hundred ninety two. See how simple? Make up your own jingles. What, for instance, came after Columbus's discovery of America? The Boston Tea Party, of course. Try this: Samuel Adams flang the tea Into the briny Zuyder Zee. (NOTE : The Zuyder Zee was located in Boston Harbor until 1801 when Salmon P. Chase traded it to Holland for Alaska and two line backers.) But I digress. Let's get back to mnemonics. Like this: In nineteen hundred sixty fteven Personna Blades make shaving heaven. I mention Personna because the makers of Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades are the sponsors of this column. It' I may get a little misty in this, the final column of the school year, may I say it's been a pleasure working for Personna? May I say further that it's been an even greater pleasure working for you, the undergrads of America? You've been a most satisfactory audience, and I'm going to miss you this summer. In fact, I'd ask you all to come visit me except there is no access to my room. The makers of Personna, after I missed several deadlines, walled me in. I have no doors or windows only a mail slot. I slip the columns out; they slip in Personnas and such food as can go through a mail slot. (For the past six months I've been living on after dinner mints.) I am only having my little joke. The makers of Personna have not walled me in, for they are good and true and gleaming and constant as good and true and gleaming and constant as the blades they make and I wish to state publicly that I will always hold them in the highest esteem, no matter how my suit for back wages comes out. And so, to close the year, I give you one last mnemonic: Study hard and pass with honors, And always shave with good Personnors! Personna and Personna's partner in luxury shaving, Ilurma-Shave, regular or menthol, have enjoyed bring- ing; you another year of Max's uncensored and uninhib- ited column. We thank you for supporting our products^ ice wish you luck in your exams and in all your other enterprises. Edward C. Riley (right), a business education instructor at the Area Technical School, is presented a B. I. Friedman award as the most outstanding participant in the two-week Wall Street Journal journalism workshop at Savannah State College which ended Fri- day. Presenting the award is Wilton C.

Page 6 THE TIGER'S ROAR August 1967 CLUB & CAMPUS FASHIONS BY CHIP TOBERT ESQUIRE'S FASHION EDITOR THE COUNTDOWN TO SUMMER is felt from one corner of the campus to the other. The race is on to finish papers, cover the terms work and find something to do this summer before the semester enda. So with sights on splitting the campus scene let's check out your warm weather wardrobe for Summer 'G7. MAKE A BIG SPLASH with the latest look in swim suits. For the uninhibited set. there's nothing better than the Tarzan style loin- cloth swimsuits we highlighted in the February column. For more conventional good looks, we like the new lightweight quick-drying cotton corduroy swim-play shorts. Style runs the gamut from ex- tension waist band to belted models and from brief to surfer length leg. Bright color is the keynote for '67. Yellow, green a"hd gold bathing trunks are getting the biggest play and the multi-color stripe straight hanging jersies are a natural to top them off. The colorful cover-ups are not only smart looking but tailor made to suit every taste. You can choose anything from a cool, sleeveless boat neck to a free swinging mock turtle neck shirt with r 'i length sleeves. THE HEADLINE STORY is the new bold geometric, paisley or native print cotton hats that are designed for beach or holiday we:ir. It's the hat that's fun to wear, looks well on and just may change a bareheaded generation of college men into a nation of hat men. Both the round and flat top models are always worn brim down. GO NATIVE in this season's Mexican, Aztec or African inspired print button down collar sport shirts. Solid color slacks or walk shorts in bright shades handsomely accent the bold shirts. Or. reverse the order and sport the colorful native print slacks with a solid shirt. A couple of pairs of western style jeans or chinos round out the basic casual equip- ment. THE SOCKLESS LOOK and common sense have come to terms. While we like the look of bare ankles with certain casual clothes we know it's harmful to feet and murder on shoes, So, we recom- mend you slip on the new mini socks that preserve the naked look and offer protection at the same time. For sportswear you can't go wrong with the new smooth leather reverse suede casual shoes in either the slip-on or eyelit tie model. Color is generating a lot of excitement in daytime footwear. Choose from a wide range of tan, gold, pastel green, blue or burgundy. Other newsworthy footnotes are the easy going sandals in a wide range of leathers and colors. C^ ANYTHING GOES during the day but when the sun goes down there are plenty of places, even on the casual summer circuit that won't let you in without a coat and tie. The look we like best is a navy or medium blue double breasted blazer with white stitching. Tie on a printed silk tie in the new wider widths and you're ready to do the town. If this summer will see you making an important 1 entry into the business world, a lightweight wool and polyester suit in any of the new lighter colora- tions will see you handsomely through the hectic days ahead. And for the avant garde, a double breasted or 2-button model suit is an excellent choice. TIME TO RING DOWN THE CURTAIN on another academic year. So, whether you plan to surf, soak up some rays or try the junior executive life, make the most of it and have a ball this summer ! Au revoir until the fall when we'll be back with the scoop on Back-to- College fashions. See you in September. Copyright, 167. ESQUIRE, Int. Edith Allen shows her swimming dexterity. Fall Institute to Be Held at SSC Dr. Howard Jordan, Jr.. presi- dent of Savannah State College, stated that the college's Fall Insti- tute will be held September 11-12. The institute will be held in the Audio-Visual Aids Center and the W. K. Payne Classroom Building. The theme of the institute is "Structural Improvement Within the General Education Program." The purpose will be to discuss several topics and evaluate them in the two days that the institute will be in session. These topics will cover (1) types of general education pro- gram structure, (2) organizing for academic counseling and guid- ance, (3) planning departmental courses to meet general education objectives, (4) planning for inter- disciplinary offerings. The summation of the work- shop will be concerned with im- plications for structural modifica- tions at Savannah State College. There will also be divisional workshops discussing the initia- tion of course modifications. 64 Students Make Dean's List at SSC According to Dr. Calvin L.

Every Little Bit Hurts Help Keep Our Campus Clean and Beautiful Columbia (Continued jrom Page 1) The Journalist, official journal for the SSC Journalism Workshop sponsored by a grant from the Wall Street Journal, received 938 points out of 1,000 for printed newspaper category of the college- university division. Mrs. Vivian Brown, teacher at Lee Street High School in Blackshear, was editor of the Journalist. The Columbia judges say, "Yours is an attrac- tive, informative and interesting publication. Your staff is to be congratulated." The office of public relations and alumni affairs headed by Wil- ton C. Scott is responsible for these publications. The Journalist was also selected as an All-Ameri- can publication by the Educa- tional Press Association of Amer- ica and will be cited for being the top educational journal in America at the NEA Convention, July 3, Minneapolis. Minnesota, in the area of format and topog- raphy. Mr. Scott stated that the Tiger's Roar won a similar award last year. Scott serves both as the publications director for SUSGA, representing 97 colleges and universities including Geor- gia Tech. Armstrong, University of Georgia, and the newly ap- pointed editor of "Cresent." offi- cial national magazine for the Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity. Inc. (inter- national fraternity representing 27,000 professional men). Dr. Harmond (Continued jrom Page 1) public a glimpse of what went on during the six-week session. Included in the exhibit were several teaching aids, along with a number of models and charts of scientific devices. The uses of these aids, devices and charts will be correlated with lesson plans for teaching science on the elementary school level. The purpose of the workshop is to prepare its ten participants to do a better job in teaching natural science to elementary school stu- dents. Mrs. Elizabeth Thompson is chairman of the workshop and Dr. B. T. Griffith, head of the Department of Biology at Savan- nah State College, directs the workshop. SSC Holds Science Workshop Dr. B. T. Griffith, director of the Science Workshop for Ele- mentary School Teachers at Sa- vannah State College, states that the workshop is well into the third week of its program. He further states that the aims and purposes of the workshop are to prepare the teachers in order that they may learn more about the natural sciences and at the same time help them to improve themselves in preparing teaching aids and setting up experiments for pupils on the elementary levels. The in-service teachers partici- pating in the workshop are: Mrs. Elizabbeth Thomson, Thunderbolt School, Savannah; Mrs. Tiny Read, Thunderbolt School, Savan- nah; Mrs. Rosetta Bennifield, S. R. Denkins School, Midville; Mrs. Mary Sue Maddox, Mims Elemen- What a College Is A college is students a college and its faculty exist for students. The students come to SSC seeking an education and they pursue learning with vigor and zest. A college is its alumni the success of the alumni determines a measure of the college's success success as parents, as citizens. as skilled professionals and as vo- cational leaders. A college is its campus a loca- tion for learning and SSC has been blessed. SSC's library is an asset to the faculty and student body. A college is extra curricular ac- tivities for students, a college is more than books and courses and credit and, in the end, a B.S. de- gree. College is also an actor in the play, a soprano in the choir, editor of the newspaper or the yearbook. College is a student art show, a concert by Lionel Hamp- ton, The Messiah, a faculty-stu- dent dinner. College is a date for the Christmas Ball. Students enjoy life at SSC. It is a friendly campus where each individual is respected and where a college body study, work, and play together. tary School, McCormick, S. C; Mrs. Bernice M.

President Jordan Speaks At Convocation Savannah State College held it's first in a series of Convocations in Wiley-Wilcox Gymnasium, Fri- day, October 6, 1967. President Howard Jordan, Jr., was the principal speaker. President Jordan, well-known orator throughout the state of Georgia and the southeast, spoke on the subject; Role of the College Student in the World Today, and the Great Decision and Challenges that faces him. In his talk. Dr. Jordan em- phasized the opportunities that are available and the need for the student to receive the best educa- tion possible. The challenge for the student is, make the best possible use of his time while in preparation for his chosen areas or field. He strongly indicated that the stu- dents should: First, accumulate a storehouse of facts; Second, train his mind to think straight; Third, acquire mental humility, and finally, develop within him a sense of the fitness of things. Dr. Jordan characterized the role of educators: make sensible men and women, in the confidence DR. JORDAN that they will go on to make them- selves into effective scientists, engineers, businessmen, or public officials. In closing, he left the students with the adage entitled, "The Man of la Muncha"; To Dream the im- nossible Dream, To fight the un- beatable foe, to hear with un- bearable sorrow, to run where the Brave dare not go. To right the unrightnble wrong, to be belter by far than you are, to try when your arms are too weary, to reach the unreachable star. He ended with This is your Quest. Follow Also on the same program. Dr. Coleridge A. Brailhwaite, head of the Fine Arts Department at this institution and conductor of the Choral Society, appeared for the first time this year on the con- vocation Friday, October 6, 1967. The audience gave the Choral Society an ovation for their splendid rendition of: "In Dat Great Gittin' Up Mornin'," which was so greatly deserved. Richard Moses, Tenor, sang the solo part. Miss Pauletlc Butler accompanied the group. ^TIGERS ROAR SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE SAVANNAH, GEORGIA October, 1967 JIIE TIGER'S ROAR Volume #~N umber tf Savannah State Student Receives Scholarship PAULETTE BUTLER Paulette Butler, senior majoring in Music Education, has received a scholarship from the National Guild of Piano Teachers for S100.00, to further her study in the field of music. Miss Butler has been a member of the Guild for the past years, as a National Member of the Na- tional Fraternity of Student Mu- sicians with an excess of 140 more C's than A's ( accumulated over the years). In music the C's have more value than A's. Miss Butler is a graduate of St. Pius of Savannah, where she first became interested in Music. She also stated that all the credit should be given to her first piano teacher, Mrs. Alice C. Wright. The National Guild also pre- sented her with the Paderewski Memorial Medal and the Guild's High School Diploma.

Savannah State To Be Represented In Chicago Dr. Charles Pratt, Head of the Chemistry Department, and Odessa Williams, Research As- sistant, will attend a meeting of the American Oil Chemist Society, in Chicago, Illinois, October 16. Miss Williams presented a paper at the Georgia Academy of Science in Atlanta last April and won first place. The title of her paper was, "Activity Studies of Cottonseed Proteolytic Enzymes by Paper Chromatography." Miss Williams brought several significant points before the group, for example, ( 1 } A fiberous protein of M.W. of ap- proximately 100,000 has been isolated from cottonseed; (2) This protein was subjected to com- mercial pepsin for hydrolsis but found to undergo very little hydrolsis; (3) Commercial pepsin was fractionated by paper chroma- tography and an active fraction isolated; 14) Of the 9 fractions resulting from the aulohydrolysis of commercial pepsin only one, zone 7, was active toward cotton- seed protein. This work was and still is sup- ported by a research grant from the U. S. Army Research Office at Durham. North Carolina. SSC Student Population Swells Savannah State College has set a record in student enrollment, which surpassed the previous year's total enrollment. Wiley Purdue, Registrar, re- ports that approximately 1,674 students have enrolled at the school, which is a record enroll- ment for the college. The total enrollment is the largest in the history of this institution, which was founded in 1890. The freshman enrollment for the fall quarter, of this term is a bit less than the previous year, to compare approximately 565 for the '66-'67 term and approxi- mately 552 for the present term. During the fall quarter approxi- mately 1,109 upper-classmen re- turned to the campus. This year the 1,109 upper-classmen was an increase of 12% compared with approximately 978 of the previous term. The increase in the enrollment has resulted in over-crowded con- ditions of the dormitories and other campus facilities. The over- crowded situations are especially noticeable while viewing the campus from the student's in- volvement, that is touring the student center and in the classes. S & H Foundation Supports Library A. J. McLemore, college librarian of Savannah State Col- lege, announces that the S & H Foundation, sponsored by the Sperry and Hutchinson Company, has awarded the college Sl,824 in support of a proposal submitted for a Lectureship Program for the 1967-68 academic year. These grants were made to thirty-eight institutions. Four prominent persons will be brought to the campus to lecture on the following issues: 1. America's involvement in Vietnam. 2. The Draft: Conscription or lottery? 3. Poverty in the U. S.: A na- tional disgrace. 4. Civil Rights: A course of action. The above topics for presenta- tion are crucial issues in the sixties which should be understood by each citizen. The purpose of the lecture series is to expose the col- lege community and the city of Savannah to some of the top scholars in America. This is one facet of the library's effort to be an instrument for learning in this academic milieu. The public is cordially invited to each of these lectures.

By Harold Jackson ivho loves Webster's Dictionary defined the term patriot as, one his country and upholds its interests. I think that the Negro has exemplified that he is truly a believer of his adopted country. He has upheld bis country's interest in all endeavors he has participated. Nearly four hundred years ago, when the first Negro landed in tins country, he was not a freeman but a slave. It is here as slaves thai they began to build a great heritage that we as Negroes should be proud of being a Mark descendant. Such great Negroes as Frederick Douglass and Booker T, \\ osh- in-inri in name a few, illustrated the Negroes' willingness to endure undei adverse circumstances. After receiving his freedom in the Emancipation Proclamation, he was faced with the perplexed prob- lem of adjusting to bis new life. He started out with nothing but the will (o >\ nrk ami make life better for himself and his family. Sim e that time he has ad- vanced more rapidly than any other race in the history of our country. It was not until the Supreme Court decision (in favor of the Ne- gri! I, on the Montgomery Bus Boycott, that he realized he no longer wanted to be a second class citizen. It was here he began his con- quest for first class citizenship, and I., receive his dignity that has been so long denied him. The Negro, feeling a need for improvement of his race, organized a national organization to better his people only fifty-four years after the ending of slavery. This group has spearheaded many movements, that have advanced the Negro to his present stage. We can now look up and be proud of the achievements we have made in recent years. Negroes such as: Tburgood Marshall, the first Negro in the Supreme Court; Floyd McCre, a Negro mayor of Flint, Michigan; Leroy Johnson, the Negro Representative in the Georgia General Assembly; and Martin Luther King, the noted civil rights leader, who received the Nobel Peace Prize. The^e few alone illustrated that the Negro has carved a great heritage in the making of our country. In answer to the question, yes, the Negro is a true patriot and believer of his adopted country. If this country is to remain a model democratic country, it must serve the needs of all its people. Letter From Vietnam to the Student Body HAROLD JACKSON I am Sgt. Benjamin Burgess from Savannah, Georgia, 4102 Sumter Street. I am a squadron leader in Vietnam, and I have some very good men. But, there is one problem that we have here and it is mail. Some of the boys don't get mail from their families like they- once did. Most of us have been here for eight or nine months, and it seems as if we have been forgotten and this is bad. We can't get our minds off of it. So, I am asking for your help. 1 thought of this and it may work. I would like for you to ask some of your school kids to write some of the fellows a few lines jusl to let them know that someone is thinking of them and what they are doing. I know they will write back, and if some will send tures they will send one pic- change. When you get my letter please let me know what you think. 1 believe we can save a lot of lives by doing this. I am send- ing a few names and all the ad- dresses in the same letter. The boys ages are from 19 to 21. Address: B Co. 2nd BN. 47th Inf. San Francisco. California APO 96372 Their names are: Pfc.

Ask The Freshman Various comments about SSC were received when a survey of freshmen was taken. Some are "brow-raising," yet their true ex- pressions and opinions. The expression "first impres- sions last forever'* would seem to fit the survey that was conducted among the freshmen males. Pa- tricia Ford and Augustas Howard questioned their peers. The question put to the young men .is: \\ hat is your impres- sion of Savannah Slate College, so far? Here are a few of the re- sponses: Charles Bass commented: "I feel that Savannah State is one of the most progressive institutions in southeast Georgia. It has a mul- tiple iiy of modern teaching and learning facilities. 11 John Williams stated: "I think this is a pretty nice school, so far, but I think the instructors could express themselves belter, and ex- plain more in (lass." Tyrone Br own said: "1 feel that Savannah Stale College is a very well-rounded school. Its faculty members seem to be striving to give the students the best they can." \ ernon Bryant added: "1 think Savannah Stale is very progres- sive, especial!) in the field of sci- ence." Elliot Sams, a transfer student, commented: "I think Savannah Slate is one of Amet ica's must dynamic and progressive m-t Mil- lions. 1 feel that one, in the search for knowledge, has chosen the right institution (SSC) to fulfill their wants for an education." The female students were asked a variety of questions: Do you think that rules govern- ing freshman girls are too strict? Miss Berry J. Jordan commenled: "No, I don't think that the rules are too strict. Most young ladies are away from home for the first time. These rules are needed for discipline and guidance." Miss Laverne McCullougk, pres- ident of the freshman dormitory, was asked, "Have any upper class girls tried to take advanlage of any freshman girls?" "No, there have been very few unfavorable comments, but this is to be ex- pected from upper class girls." She further commented, "that most of the female freshmen are pleased and always give favorable com- pliments about the college. On the other hand, some of the girls haven't got leu adjusted and are still quite homesick." Y\ hen asked if being around a large number of new face- had af- fected her in any way, Miss Shir- ley AlcCray slated, "No. meeting new faces hasn't affected me be- cause 1 love to meet strangers and become their friend. I don't think meeting many new faces has af- fected any freshman girls." Miss Angle Foster commented, "It I SSC I is the grooviest educa- tional institution in the stale. The instructors seem to be, so far, very understanding about our many mistakes and are trying to guide us in the right direction. We also feel that matriculating at this in- stitution will inevitably be a won- derful and fulfilling experience," when asked to give an overall comment about SSC. "Do you think that going to the Student Center can become habit forming and in turn cause one to neglect her studies?" Miss Sandra Fttquay answered, "I think that going to the center definitely be- comes habit forming, and it can also cause neglect of studies. Any time a person puts herself into anything, it is very possible for it to become, as the question implies, habit forming, and once a habit is formed, it is hard to break." Concerning the upper class girls taking advantage of freshman girls, Miss Hose Ella Moore com- mented, "From having the oppor- tunity of mingling with upper class girls, 1 feel that they haven't, un- ( Continued on Page SJ From The Editor's Desk By Barbara J.

Upon entering college, you realized that there was to be a transitional period, from high school pupil to college student. Don't let this lessen your desire to be active. A student that has grown accustomed I in high school or boarding school), to being an intricate part of that educational : ustitution feels left out or insecure about belonging in a new situation. Although ihis educational institution is on a higher level than high school, all establishments of this nature are basically the same that is, run by cooperation and activation of you, the student. In many instances the student is one who argues about, but docs nothing, absolutely nothing to bring about improvement in that which he is arguing about. At SSC, there are many organizations and committees that the student, new and old, might become an active spoke in the group's wheel of progress. For example, the Student Government Association has many committees of which many of you are a part. If you're called upon to serve in any capacity, please cooperate. This is to be so of all organizations. Remember this: More cooperation = More progress. East Meets West At Savannah State By Sister Mary Odile "Don't worry, there is always tomorrow," the optimistic Egyptian will invariably say. But for me, an expatriate from that land, there is a today and a yesterday, a yesteryear in which I became a beneficiary of Savannah Stale College. April 1906 it was, when I first set foot on this campus. From the beginning 1 have liked its sylvan aspect, the nearby river so reminiscent of the Nile, the green field beyond Payne Hall ever evocative of the verdure of my native Ireland. It was, however, in Hill, not Payne Hall, that I discovered myself in the guise of a student. The Department of Fine Arts which is now located in the massive Kennedy building was then functioning on the top story of Hill Hall. Truthfully it had much more to give than f was artistically amenable to, and 1 left it not as an artist nor a musician but with a revitalized and vitalizing sense of value. A value that gives new meaning to my own life and to life in general. As an unnaturalized, uninitiated American citizen, it is to the Department of Social Sciences that I owe my burgeoning knowledge of the history and government of the United States. Humanwise, my thoughts often drifted back to the decadent monarchy of the inglori- ous King Farouk, and the militar- istic birth of the United Arab Re- public. Such reveries, even though indulged in during class, only helped to foster my appreciation of a nation free and indivisible ... A subject which has also broadened my concept of the American way of life is that classified under Physical Education 317: Community Play and Recreation. The ideas dissemi- nated by the study of the Play- ground and Recreation Association of America are conducive to everything that is mentally, physically and spiritually wholesome. It is said that in the future philosophy will coexist with science. Had it done so this summer, the reading of the philosophic contribution of our British, French, German and American philosophers would not have been half as interesting nor as felicitous. English has always been my pursuit and I am still the untired pursuer. In the Department of Humanities I have become acquainted with man) hitherto unknown contemporary British and American writers to whose literariness I am literary indebted. Thanks to our ingenious Instructor, the lingual study this quarter ranged from West- Saxon dialects to the grapheme and morpheme the atoms of modern speech. This is called Linguistics, or the scientific study of the lan- guages. Even electronic journalism found a niche in our summer curriculum. Sometimes we miss the wood for the trees. No matter how tenaciously the Spanish moss may cling, the attractive blue and pink of Gordon Library is at all hours visible and accessible to the students of Savannah State College. The graeiousness of our librarians is a happy link in the chain that inextricably binds the college student to the authors on the shelves. It is always nice to meet nice people, especially so when those people constitute the administration of a State College. The courtesy of the administrative body of Savannah State College brings to life the words of an eminent British writer, Hilaire Belloc: "And in my walks it seems to me The grace of God abides in courtesy." SISTER MARY ODILE Your Paper By Diane Hansell It has often been said that the college newspaper mirrors the college. We the staff and editors are well aware of this fact. The responsibilities entailed through the correct acquisition and subsequent reporting of the news to you, the reader, is of the greatest importance. But the process, no matter how often repeated, is hindered by unfore- seen obstacles that appear during the course of the month separating issues. Although the news is fresh when first assigned, it has frequently faded to obscurity by the time the paper is ready for distribution. Taking the above mention into consideration, we ask for you to write us your suggestions for improvement or other criticisms.

MARY MILAM Poetic Editor The Black Awakening By Benjamin Harris There was once a garden, A seductively beautiful garden that belonged to God. There were many, and all kinds of flowers there But there especially was this large black, beautiful orchid. It was the only black creature in the whole garden. All the other flowers strayed away from it. Even when a white lily was once planted near it, the lily moved away each time the wind blew. It was even said that the best dew drops fell on the pale flowers. This black orchid was soon en- hanced with an inferiority complex. But one da\ the orchid thought to itself, "Black, can't be so bad. In fact, black must be great. All of our rain comes from dark, black clouds . . . Never from white ones. And all of my nutrients come from this rich, black dirt. Black must be good ! Black is good! It's even good for the pale flowers. Yes, black must be beautiful." And with this thought, a black revolution was begun.

MARIE ALLEN Developing Individuality In Dress By Marie Allen Fashion Editor One of the outstanding charac- teristics of a smartly dressed woman is her ability to develop a pleasing individuality about her clothes. Her costumes have a per- sona) touch which seems to iden- tify them as belonging to her and to her alone. They are symbols or her love of true beauty and good taste. They show a com- pletely mature altitude toward clothes and a knowledge of the correct. She does not try to copy the clothes of other people or to wear clothes that she does not feel well in. She is not subservient to fash- ion, following its every whim and fancy. Instead she makes her clothes work for her. She chooses from the current fashions the fea- tures that will enhance her beauty and are appropriate for her daily life. She tries to combine these with a dash of originality so that the results become imaginative and sound. In d e v el o p i n g this personal st) le, one has to be careful that one does not create an eccentric form of dress. Extremes in lines of color and style will produce this unattractive effect. The cling- ing to a certain style or favorite accessory after the cycle of fash- (Conlimud on Page 8) NEW- FIND SCHOLARSHIPS BY COMPUTER Last year S30 million in college schol- arships wenl unclaimed because no qualified persons applied . . , because no qualified persons knew of them.

She is the daughter of a school teacher and painter and hails from Pennsylvania. Nationally and internationally the No. 1 novel in the news is "Valley of the Dolls." It has been No. 1 on the list for 2!i consecu- tive weeks. From Broadway to Hollywood, this is the fastest selling, most whispered about novel of the year. And no wonder! It reveals more about the secret, drug-filled, love- sltirved, sex - sntiuted, nightmare world of show business than any book ever published. It is about the world where sex is a success weapon, where love is the smiling mask of hate, where slipping youth and failing beauty nrc ever present specters. It is a world where the magic tickets to peace or oblivion are "dolls" the insiders' word for pills pep pills, sleeping pills, red pills, blue pills . . . and pills to chase the truth away. "Valley of the Dolls" is the story of three of the most exciting women you will ever meet; women who were too tough or too tal- ented not to reach the top . . . and unable to enjoy it once they were there! Anne Welles: the icy New Eng- land beauty who melted for the wrong Mr. Right ... an Adonis famous for his fidelity. Neely O'Hara: the lovable kid from vaudeville who became a star and a monster. Jennifer North: the blonde god- dess who survived every betrayal committed against her magnificent body except the last. Each of them was bred in the Babylons of Broadway and Holly- wood. Each of them learned about making love, making money and making believe. Each of them rode the crest of the wave. And each of them came finally to the "Val- ley of the Dolls." Do not miss it. And do not lend your copy to a friend. You will never get it back. tary, Cecil Strong; Assistant Secretary, George Williams; Par- liamentarian, Harvey Jones; and Chaplain, Fleming Gobi.

NEWSCOPE * EVENTS 7S Students Benefit In Savannah State Upward Bound Project The Savannah Slate College Up- ward Hound Project, which is in its second year, has an enrollment of 78 students. These students arc selected from public and private schools in and around Savannah. The academic phase of the pro- gram, which emphasizes communi- cative skills, mathematics and great issues with eleetives in physi- cal science and French, is directed by o faculty of twelve persons, ap- proximately half of whom ore sec- ondary school teachers. The students are encouraged to participate in the cultural life of the college community as fre- quently as possible. They engage in such extra-curricular activities as debating, drama and art. A notable feature of the program is the enthusiasm exhibited by stu- dents and teachers alike. Upward Bound is a pre-college program, sponsored by the Office of Economic Opportunity for high school students, which seeks to find and redirect young people who are capable of going to col- lege, but cannot do so because of psychological, social and physical conditions of poverty. The program seeks to rescue the youngster whose brains and abil- ity may be lost to society, or worse yet, be directed against society. unless be can be motivated to ap- ply his talents and energies con- structively. The effectiveness of the pro- gram is demonstrated by the fact that almost 80% of the Upward Hound graduates have gone on to college, when normally about 5% of such a group would have been expected to do so. The program involves a full- time summer program and a fol- low-up program during the regu- lar school year when students re- turn to the campus on Saturdays for classes and other activities. The staff consists of the follow- ing persons: Mrs. Martha Wilson, Director; Miss Norma Weathers, Assistant Director; Mrs. Sylvia Bowen, mathematics coordinator; Mrs. Violet Singleton, mathemat- ics teacher; Mr. Robert Holt, com- munications coordinator; Miss Virginia Hudson, communications leachei ; Mr. Otis Mitchell, com- munications teacher; Mrs. Abbie Jordan, communications teacher; Mrs. Wilhelmina Dean. Great Is- sues coordinator; Mr. David Rob- erts, Great Issues teacher; Miss Ada Simpkins, Great Issues teacher; Mr. Walter Leftwich. physical science teacher; Miss Al- thea Morton, French teacher; Mrs. Willie Mae Robinson, Secretary. Two Students Get Chemistry Grants Two Freshmen at Savannah State College, Ira Glover and Janice Hooks, received Chemistry Grant-in-Aids. Miss Glover, a graduate of Sol Johnson, was sixth honor student and accumulated an average of 3.00. After graduating from Savan- nah State College she plans to further her education and obtain a Ph.D. degree in chemistry. Miss Glover was motivated by two people in her choice to major in chemistry, her father, Mr. Frederick Glover, a chemistry professor at Tompkins High, and her sister. Mrs. Idella Nails, who is a chemist for the Federal Gov- ernment in Washington. D. C. Presently. Miss Glover is work- ing on the Protein Project. After studies are over, she indulges in her favorite hobby, reading. She is the daughter of Mr. Frederick and Edwinna Glover of 1130 East 56th Street. Savannah, Ga. Miss Hooks is a graduate of St. Piux here in Savannah. While in high school she developed a deep concept of the field of chemistrv. This is what stimulated her to major in chemistry. She was recommended for the grant by Mrs. Wilson of the Up- ward Bound Program. She is the daughter of Mrs. Eva Hooks of 1000 Crosby Street, Savannah- Ga. Savannah State Students Serve As Camp Counselors Miss Mae Bell Jackson, Miss Finnic Robinson and Shedrick Jordan served as camp counselors at Dublin 4-H Club Center, ac- cording to M. C.

Pre-trial is a program designed for students who completed high school with less than an overall average of The students could enroll for not less than ten and not more than thirteen quarter hours. They had to achieve an overall average of not less than "C" in all courses attempted during the pre-trial period in order to be eligible for one quarter's probationary enroll- ment at SSC. The summer pre-trial program was held from June 12 through August 18. Forty-five students were enrolled in the pre-trial. Of this forty-five, twenty-five main- tained an average of "C" or bet- ter. We, the members of the Tiger's Roar staff, wish these twenty-five students continued success during this school term. SSC Sunday Sehool Organized What It's Like To Be A Summer Intern In the Nation's Capitol By Mary Beal As one of thirty Peace Corps Interns in the nation's capital, I found it to be an enjoyable and rewarding experience. One which I shall never forget. I was assigned as a student as- sistant in the Comptroller's office. The duties I performed were basically general accounting, such as recording transactions, filing documents, and setting up work- sheets. However, under the guid- ance of my supervisor, 1 compiled three financial reports which were to be sent to the U. S. Treasury Department and found that by ap- plying what 1 had been taught to a real situation proved to be of greater value to me than past per- formance on written examinations. Through the Intern Program I was able to participate in many different lecture series and meet many of the nation's leaders. Of course, we met and talked with many of the Peace Corps' person- nel, but the program was not com- pletely Peace Corps oriented. To mention some of the leaders with whom we were able to have sessions are: Harold Howe, Com- missioner of Education ; Sargent Shriver, Director of the Office of Economic Opportunity. We also visited Capitol Hill for sessions with such people as Sen. Brooke, Mass.; Sen. Robert Kennedy, N. Y.; Rep. John Conyers, Mich.; Sen. Edward Kennedy, Mass.; and Rep. Wilbur Mills, Ark. However, these are not all of the leaders with whom we exchanged views and asked questions concerning national and international prob- lems. One of my extracurricular ac- tivities was performing volunteer services two evenings a week with VISTA, an associated program of the Peace Corps. My major func- tion was to work with underpriv- ileged youngsters in the area of recreation.

Other officers for the 1067-68 term include Geraldine F. Dumas, assistant superintendent; Rubye Whipple, secretary; Lenora Hill, a?si;tant secretary; Raymond Bostwick, treasurer; Joseph Pick- ett, reporter; and Miriam McMul- len, organist. The officers of in- struction include Mr. Bernard L. Woodhouse, advisor and fresh- man instructor; Mrs. Mollie N. Curtwright, sophomore instructor; Mr. Wilbur H.

Dean Reporter Bro. T. L. Nevels 37 Volumes Presented Library Mrs. S. L. Varnedoe has given the college library the complete works of Shakespeare in thirty- seven volumes. This is a ^ift in memory of Mrs. Dixon's husband, Mr. W. L. Dixon. This set. one of less than two thousand sets, was published by the Limited Edition's Club in 1939. The editor was Herbert Farjeon. the designer was Bruce Rogers, and the illustrations were done by many persons. Each of the thirty-seven volumes was illustrated by a different illustra- tor, including Americans and those from foreign countries. In some of the books the illustrations are in color and reproduced with remarkable brilliance. The type chosen for this work was 18-point Anton Janson cut especially for this edition by the Lanston Monotype Company. The paper sixty tons was made particularly for this edition by the Worthy Paper Company. On Shakespeare's annual jour- ney to Warwickshire, he resided with his friend. John Davenant. The design of the cover of these volumes is supposed to be the wallpaper in Davenant's house dating back to 1550. This set of Shakespeare's works, unique and lovely in every respect, is a valuable addition to our library collection. CLUB & CAMPUS FASHIONS By CHIP TOLBERT ESQUIRE'S FASHION EDITOR THE PARTY'S OVER. Face it, friends no matter "How You Spent Your Summer Vacation," as a volunteer worker, in painful em- ployment, or just flaked out by the nearest body of water, it's back to the salt mines now! Rut the beginning of every school year brings a special excitement of its own, and we're here to make sure that you meet every occasion dressed in the best that campus fashion has to ofFer. And there's no lack of excitement in this department. either! For instance: THE STAMP OF CONFORMITY which has been the identifying mark of the college man for far too long a time (in our opinion, anyway ) . has been dealt something of a body blow. And it was the "Mod" phenomenon whatever its merits as fashion that gave the quality of individuality new impetus. Within the framework of your favorite fashions, you've got more of a chance to express your- self by the clothes you wear than ever before! THE MULTIPLE CHOICE ANSWER in point. It's a 3-piece suit that isn't j a case 3-piece suit at all, in the ordinary sense of th'e word. The jacket, vest and slacks have been coordi- nated by the manufacturer for you to wear as a "set" or in combination with other compo- nents. Your Multi-set could couple a matching jacket and vest with contrasting slacks; or it might combine matching vest and trousers with a different jacket; or all three pieces could be subtly coordinated in differing fabrics. If you've ever found that mix-and-match is a problem. Multi-sets are an effortless solution! POW! PATTERNS is what's happening in slacks, baby. Bold, colorful, and riff fit now you can pick a Pow ! pattern from such diverse sug- gestions as plaids, windowpane ox glen ; checks, gun club or houndstooth ; tartans, authentic and otherwise; stripes and beefy herringbones practically everything you can think of except Flower Power prints! What's more, they're not only available in all-wool and wool blends, but in casual slacks the practical, everyday cotton 'T I'fitt'in [i..|\.--ii-r .Mininn.it many |icrm;i nent press; in your favorite slim, trim styling. THE TWO TOP TRENDS in fabric this Fall are Twill weaves and Windowpane patterns. The Twills you'll find in all the variations you can imagine cavalry, whipcord, gabardine, saxony, eheviot and clear on into sturdy, casual cottons. The Twill look turns up everywhere : in suits, sport jackets and slacks, vests, topcoats, rain- coats you name it, and you'll find it in Twill. Big Windowpane blocks dominate the pattern scene in sport .jackets, suits, slacks, sweaters even socks! Block sizes go from big to bigger, in single, double, and triple-track patterns as well as oversize overplaids. The color range can be as bright or subdued as you like, in lively multi-color heather blends or bold solids. YOUR SHIRT WARDROBE TURNS ON. ..with -Turned-on Brights" or, to sum up the shirt story in one short word: color! Brighter, deeper solids, a wide variety of stripes, checks. Tatter- sails and herringbones all point to a colorful season for shirts. These bright colors and patterns add new liveliness to the tradi- tional button-down in oxford or broadcloth. And have you tried one of the new no-button button-down or "town" collared shirts yet? Or have you noticed how many more shirts come with French cuffs? It's not too soon to start hinting for Christmas cufflinks, you know! That about does it for now. Next month we'll try outerwear on for size, in time to coincide with the downturn in temperatures. See you then. P> Copyrijthi, 1867. ESQUIRE, Inc. Intern (Continued Irani Page 4) 1 want to thank Dr. Hayward S.

In their opening, the Tigers managed to put together a fair Alderman Kan At Georgia Tech offense considering the firsl game jitters and came Up with two touchdowns to defeat Livingston 15-G wiih quarterback Felix Bell passing to flanker David for one touchdown and storing another after a long gallop by fullback Frank Bell lo the losers' three-yard line. In the second game, that seemed more like an instant replay of the first with all the cosily errors committed, the Tigers weren't as fortunate and accepted a 23-0 shut- out from Alabama A&M College in Normal. Unable to get their of- fensive game rolling, SSC failed to pick up 100 yards rushing and bleu several scoring attempts on long incomplete passes. The de- fensive unit up front played their usual lough down to the final buz- zer game, bul once again [he long pass proved to be loo much for tlie Tigers to defend against and A&M riddled the secondary all night. A .'16-yard punl return, a blocked punt on SSC's 20-yard line, and a sneaky little halfback who managed to elude the Tigers secondary, accounted f n the win- ners' three touchdowns and did the needed scoring for the win.

Some colleges and universities that took pari in this meet were: Georgia Tech, 1 niversilj of Geor- gia, Georgia State College, Emory University, Berry College, Georgia Southern, and naturally the Savan- nah Stale College Tigers. Last year Alderman participated in a cross i oiinli v meet at Georgia Tech. He placed eighth out .if sixty-five, and was the onlj Negro partii ipating in that meet.

However, there are times when this eccen- tric form of dress is worn for so main years that it at last becomes an accepted costume for that par- ticular person. Without it. the person actually looks queer. Per- haps you can remember certain people iv ho continued to wear their distinguishing costume. However, you will find that you will feel more satisfied with your appearance if it expresses beauty and suitability within the cycle of fashion. Often il is the way an article is worn rather than the specific item it-elf that gives the costume that spark of interest which makes il outstanding. This requires no added expense, simply the desire to find the correct manner of dis- playing it. An individual style can be yours wherever you live. It is not de- pendent on money. All it needs is the acceptance of the fact that . lollies should be an expression of beauty. Foolliall Srlu'tlule October 21 Clark College, Savannah, Ga.

On Campus with MaxQhulman of "Rally Ro "Dobie Gillis vt the Flag, Boys: THERE ARE ISO BAD TEACHERS; THERE ARE ONLY BAD STUDENTS The academic year has only just begun and already one thing is clear: you're not ready for college. What, then, should you do? Should you throw up your hands and qu it ? I say no ! I say you must attack, grapple, cope! I say America did not become the world's leader in motel construction and kidney transplants by running away from a fight! To the question then : You say you're not ready for col- lege. You're too green, too naive. You lack maturity. Okay, the answer is simple: get mature. How? Well sir, to achieve maturity you need two things : a) aprobingmind; b ) a vest. A probing mind will be quickly yours if you'll remem- ber that education consists not of answers but of ques- tions. Blindly accepting information and dumbly memorizing data is high school stuff. In college you don't just accept. You dispute, you push, you pry, you chal- lenge. If, for instance, your physics prof says, "E equals mc squared," don't just write it down. Say to the prof, "Why?" This will show him two things: a I Your mind is a keen, thrusting instrument. b ) You are in the wrong major. Ask questions, questions, and more questions. That is the essence of maturity, the heart and liver of education. Nothing will more quickly convince the teachers that you are of college calibre. And the tougher your questions, the better. Come to class with queries that dart and flash, that make unexpected sallies into uncharted territory. Ask things which have never been asked before, like "How tall was Nietzsche?" and "Did the Minotaur have ticks? If so, were they immortal?" and "How often did Pitt the Elder shave?" Action on the gridiron as SSC defeats Edward Waters, 13-8. Conference Games, t* Homecoming. All Home Games will be played on Savannah State's Alh- , Field Slarting Time 2:00 P.M. (Incidentally, you may never know the complete an- swer to Pitt the Elder's shaving habits, but of one thing you can be positive: no matter how often he shaved and no matter what blades he used, he never enjoyed the shaving comfort that you do. I am assuming, of course, that you use Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades, a logical assumption to make when one is addressing col- lege men which is to say men of perspicacity, discrimi- nation, wit, taste, cognizance, and shrewdness for Personna is a blade to please the perspicacious, delight the discriminating, win the witty, tickle the tasteful, coddle the cognizer, and shave the shrewd. ( I bring up Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades be- cause the makers of Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades pay me to write this column, and they are in- clined to sulk if I omit to mention their product. I would not like to see them unhappy, the makers of Personna. for they are fine ruddy men, fond of morris dancing and home brewed root beer, and they make a blade that shaves closely and cleanly, nicklessly and hacklessly, and is sharp and gleaming and durable and available both in double-edge style and Injector style. i And from these same bounteous blademakers comes Burma-Shave, regular or menthol, a lather that out- lathers other lathers, brother. So if you'd rather lather better, and soak your whiskers wetter, Burma-Shave's your answer.) But I digress. We have now solved the problem of maturity. In subsequent columns we'll take up other is- sues, equally burning. Since 1953 when this column first started running in your campus paper, we've tackled such thorny questions as "Can a student of 19 find hap- piness with an economics professor of 90 ?" and "Should capital punishment for pledges be abolished?" and "Are room-mates sanitary?" Be assured that in this, our 14th year, we will not be less bold. The makers of Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades (double-edfie or Injector) and Burma-Shave (regular or menthol) are pleased (or apprehensive) to bring you another year of Max Shulman's uninhibited, uncen' sored column. Your Paper (Continued from Page 2) Because the newspaper is such a vital organ of the school, it is directly up to the staff and indirectly up to the mass of the population to strive for continual improvement. Our goal is to have the most supported and best written newspaper this college has ever had. Your newspaper will have the many items of news which are of interest to you. The Tiger's Roar plans a very busy, progressive and successful college year and we wish the same to each of you. TIGERS STOP LANE, 20-6 McCall, Fanning Convocation Speakers Rev. McCall "What shall you do with life?" was the subject of Rev. Walter McCall's speech lo the student body. Rev. McCall. pastor of Providence Baptist Church in At- lanta, is also Acting Dean of Morehouse School of Religion. In his talk. Rev. McCall empha- sized the tasks thai face our gen- eration, be aware of at least four things in the generation of frus- tration and turbulence: (1) Dis- cover the purpose for which we are made, (2) Understand that if life is worth living, it is not be- cause we have found it that way, but rather because we make it so, (3 1 Vie must discipline our lives daily to live up to the highest and best we know. (4l We must disci- pline ourselves to live by some great design under some great vision, and for some great purpose greater than ourselves. In closing, he reminded the au- dience of his subject, and com- mented, "Why not try giving it away to noble causes through preparation for service." Dr. Fanning Dr. J. L. Fanning, Vice Presi- dent for Services at the University of Georgia and former recipient of The Progressive Fanner Man of the Year Award, was the guest speaker, Friday morning, Nov. 3 on Savannah State College's weekly assembly program held in Wiley Gymnasium. The former president of the Athens Kiwanis Club stressed to the student body the great pace that events are occurring in our environment, and staled that this is an ample lime for our voung people to shine, and put emphasis on occurrences in our society and community. Fanning commented that one of the greatest possessions that we own is that of the privilege to lead, love, be friendly, understand, and most of all, to choose what you want to he. Choice, Fanning states, is one of the most difficult areas that we can ever endeavor, and successful decisions are not easy to come by. Fanning went on to say it's easy to let others choose areas for you to enter, but the difficult part is when we enter them that we find out that it's not alwa\s our way to success. Fanning went on to say that decisions made today are not like the ones made by our grand- fathers, but more advanced and complex. He went on lo say that our decisions should he handled very carefully, especially in areas of great concentration- Fanning, looking into the fu- ture, projected that in the next 30 years about U3'/r of the world's people will be living in urban areas and about % ol lne United States people will live in 254 urban areas, and with students from 159 countries attending college at SSC it should give us a good cross ref- erence of our state and keep each other informed on various aspects of the stale, and changes occurring as a result of people moving. Fanning stated that our cities lean toward excellence, because it's rewarding. This is the key to suc- cess in a community if you want to be accepted over others.

Her views on such topics as se\ in the cinema and the temperaments of actors were expressed. She said that films can get no worse as far as sex is concerned: they could only get better. Miss Grey also stated that censuring is a necessity today because some producers will do just about anything to promote a picture. When one of the inter- viewers slated that putting an age limit on some movies was insult- ing to the public's integrity. Miss Grey immediately came to the de- fense of the censors by saying that the prohibition is not meant to in- sult the public, but rather to pro- tect them from producers who would run wild with lewd, sex- filled films.

Our roving reporter, Augustas Howard, set out in an effort to get the varied reactions to the staled question. He came up with many different answers. In response to being asked, "What does Home- coming mean In you?" the follow- ing comments wen- made: Tommy Hurt. Sophomore band member, stated: "To me, it is a time of invigoration of school spirit, an inspiration to the being and a lime when the student bod) concentrates on s h o w i n g the beauty that lies within itself. This is home- oming to me." Rose M. Copeland, Sophomore, commented: "It is the biggest event it." Jack Handy, football player. commented, "It is ,1 gala affair. glamorous occasion filled with lovely floats, and the coronation of the queens. There is also the bonfire. "I would like to see the team win the hard fought game for die alumni. The team members have very high spirits and everyone [nils out 100 per cent." John Abrmns, star punter, said. "First of all, this game means a new SSC. It should bring the championship which is rightfully ours but has always eluded us. If we win, it should build a better relationship between the students and the athletic department. It sbnuld separate the men from the boys; we are men. therefore we should win this game. The game should lie ours." Last, but not least, Felix Bell, star quarterback of Tiger squad. Bell stated, "As a tradition, SSC lias been |c.-ing it- liomeromim: games. When playing Albany, we are playing for the conference [cad. It means more than any game except the Fort Valley game. Every player will be giving 100 per cent, We will be trying to equal the score with Albany be- cause they beat us last season dur- ing their homecoming game for the conference lead. Well be try- ing to do the same this year." NOVEMBER 20th NEXT NEWS DEADLINE What's Your Gripe? Compiled by Dwight Blackshear The gripe, a human emotion of which all of us have in one form or another, is best given a "work- out" by our presence at this insti- tution. The lengthening shadows of the next exam. The unremitting toil involved in preparing for the exam or simply the hoarded Ven- u'l'.im f\]iv*'*-ft\ by the 5'7" high guy whose girl friend has been taken by a G'5" high football player, are all emotional wounds in which . . . The gripe will come! Who has a gripe? Everyone, which includes you, an individual. When docs one gripe? Practically 24 hours a day. Therefore, since everyone gripes in one form or another, should we as a happy in- stitutional family allow this emo- tion, which all of us express? This column shall be dedicated to the "gripers" on campus, which shall include not only the student bod) but also the faculty members. We on the Tiger's Roar staff hope we can in some manner pacify the "gripers" by giving them a media in which to express themselves. Whether the gripe is sharp and penetrating, bitter and contemptuous, broad and deep or just something known and recog- nized l>\ your fellow student or faculty members, present it to us so that we may present it to every- one through the scope of the school publication. While tripping around campus, I st li 1 id iled upon some of these gripes, that are repeated at least 50 times a day: so 1 took up my trusty pern il and jotted down some of these gripes that amount to something like what this young lady bad to say on . . . Academic Freedom to her friend . . . "The teacher should tell us about academic freedom when we first enter his class, because the si uden t will dev elop a fea r f speaking in class, and won't know when to speak, how to speak, Ol if he should speak at all." Then again. Jesse Davis, a vet- eran of State, had this to say- about the dining ball . . . "The food in the dining hall is cold, and 1 get tired of grits and eggs practically ever) morning; it gels monotonous. 1 think they should change the menu or some- thing!" Another person griped about the dining hall and was overheard to say . . . "A thirty-minute wait for a ten-minute meal is crazy. The only satisfaction I get out of going into the dining hall i- not to eat, but to talk to my girl friend as she eats. 1 She seems more talk- ative while eating.)" One of the major gripes of the upper class girls this quarter "I don't like the idea of fresh- man girls getting all the space in the dorm. I feel we. the upper class women should have first choice." These being only a few of the relatively thousands of gripes beard every week, are given to you basically as examples of what the college student feels about the in- stitution, his friends, his fellow students, and the faculty. During the year you'll probably hear someone complaining about the nosey dormitory girl that puts a glass cm the wall in her room to hear what the girls in the next room are gossiping about, or com- plaints in which student will criti- cize teachers and vice versa. Re- gardless, we'll give you what you want, and if we don't, we'll change it so you're happy. If you have suggestions, bring them right in! So let me "pull your coat" to the new groove, the "griping groove" and "if you like it, tell \our friends; if you don't, well, just keep it to yourself." So with no further adieu, if you've got a gripe, send it in to t b e gripelislcneT. Remember, "Let it all hang out," and just get it off your chest, the gripe that is!

The task of finding the right wouls to discuss this hook is truly a lest of intelligence. The first chapters in the book simply dis- cuss the idea of love and marriage in England during the 16th and 17th centuries. The remainder of the book was dedicated lo the type and extent of love making the Stuarts participated in. Mary of Sen! was lo have had Iragic am- bitions which led her from man to man.

Charles 11 was known for his many wives while his brother, James II. found his pleasure in penances which he plaee.l on the people. The love life of William and Mary was even spoken of as having taken place in a strange and abnormal man- ner.

Kim I'p-ilon Chapter of Alpha Phi Omega Service Fraternity, Inc.. the most recently organized fiaiermh on campus, has storied off it- yeat "Going all out." Among the many projects and ideas that have been cnlibralcd for the ensuing year is the new I- ial-1'iover limn" radio pro- gram sponsored by APO. The idea, which originated from niie of the fraternity mem- bers was given full support nol onl) fr the olhei members, hut also from WSOK radio station. WSOK fell that this program would he of help in allowing the community lo hear from the stu- dents of hSC. Now in operation for nearly Iwo mouths, Prat-Power Hour has i hi l standingly presented to both the campus and Community, pro- grams of educational awareness ami entertainment. However, the college radio net- work is not functioning as efficiently as it was programmed, due to lack of cooperation of the school administration and student body. We, the members of APO, urge the SSC family to support the col- lege radio program, which comes on WSOK (1230 KC) each Wednesday, from 1 1 a.m. to 3 p.m., and lo take part in this function by giving the cooperntion and advertisement it truly de- serves. The existence of Fiat-Power Hour depends on the existence of the campus radio station and the existence of the radio depends on Y01 So . , . SUPPORT YOUR COLLEGE RADIO SYSTEM.

Tigers Lose Seven Gridders When the Southeastern Athletic defending conference champions, Savannah State's Tigers, open their grid practice next season, a total of seven players will be miss- ing due to graduation or playing expiration. Three of the seven will vacate the Tiger's heralded defensive unit, with the others making up the offensive unit. Bobby Carter, a 216 pound guard who played four years on the first team was a big plug in the line and was named to the Southeastern Athletic Conference dream learn two years in a row and will leave a big gap to be filled. Also on the defensive line Dennis Davis who was switched from defensive halfback to end will be gone, but has several capable veterans in all conference Willie West and David Roberson. The only defensive back to graduate will be Vaughn Ford, who also loaned a hand at quarter- back during his playing lime with the Tigers. Ford was named to the all conference team twice and was the team captain this year. Only two offensive linemen will be gone, in end John Mitchell from Johnson High and 220 tackle Jack Handy who missed the final two games of the season with a shoulder injury. Handy, a two- time all city tackle at SCJ played four years on the Tigers' first unit and was a big asset during his college career. Carlos Westmore, SSC's leading pass receiver last season with 12 catches good for 175 yards and an additional 236 yards rushing was all conference that season and combined with Lewis Wilher- spoon. their number two pass re- ceiver, with five grabs good for US yards and two touchdowns, provide a deadly one-two punch for SSC who finished second in the conference, losing to Albany State in the title game, 20-13. What's Your Gripe?, . . Is It Here? . . . Hm in in! (Due to so many gripes be- ing received, some are printed in litis issue and (he rest will appear in the nexl issue.) Welcome gripers, to the section of this paper that is guaranteed to make you drool all over your- selves. Why? How? Because here, that's right, here in this small inconspicuous space, the "Gripe- listener" will bring forth the best honest lo goodness gripes collected from students and teachers on and around campus. Some said it couldn't be done, others said it shouldn't be done, but it's too late. "cause ii has been done. Being it only fitting to start with first things first, the first gripe I have received from Gripers Anonymous On Campus went something like this: Why do we need advisors for our student groups? Do you fear insurrection? Signed Cornered Rebel." However, getting back to the true purpose of this column, we received several very significant _i i|"- ulm h I took i" tin- projiei authorities for interpretation and actions toward correcting them. Listed below are some of the many gripes received, through t h e "Gripe-Box" and other sources. Dear Sir: The girls of Lockette Hall want: Hot water, shower curtains, tissues in the bathrooms, and the washer and dryer fixed. Now for the Dining Hall: We want drinks on Sunday, cornbread more often, no fat-filled pork chops. II ipe out that shrimp salad, and pul something in those bags on Sunday. We would appreciate im- mediate action on these matters. Thank you. SSC Girls of Lock- ette Hall." ( M r.

I Continuing down the line of gripes, one move fan wrote: "Dear Gripelislenei : The thing that is bugging me the most around SSC. is that the movie list states a particular movie to be shown, and then when we come out to see it. there has been a change at the very last moment. Why don't they stick to the list?" (Well. Dean Freeman, realizing the faultiness of this list promptly made out a correct data sheet and personally typed it. As a result, now you are guaranteed to see the movie listed or your money back.) In another gripe, the griper writes: "Dear Sir: We would appreciate it if the student workers rate of pay would be raised to the mini- mum wage of $1.40 an hour. We would also like our checks on time. Thank you." I Unfortunately, the changing of institutional pay wages could only be done by the National office in charge of programs such as the EOA. etc. The business office is making checks out as soon as they are received and will try even harder to please the students.)

Happy New Year to all and A Merry Christmas Day. Barbara J. Mobley. Editor Special Report to All Colleges and Universities Reports which indicate that aerosol glass-chillers have been implicated in the death of seven persons in the sixteen to twenty- one year age group in the last year are of deep concern to the aerosol industry. The fluorocarbon in these products reportedly was col- lected in a balloon and then the concentrated vapors inhaled. The user apparently expected an in- toxication or similar experience. Since fluorocarbons are regarded as relatively non-toxic and safe for use in aerosols, students may be- lieve that confining the concen- trated vapor in a balloon to in- hale, while excluding oxygen, is also harmless. This is not the case; it may have fatal conse- quences. Thus, this appeal to you to explain to students that this gross misuse deliberate inhala- tion of the highh concentrated va- pors which can be collected from some aerosol products has caused death. Undoubtedly, when the stu- dents are made aware of this pos- sible consequence, the practice will cease. It is not known how widespread this fad is, and each school is asked to judge whether a report- ing of the facts to the students in the school is indicated. There is always the risk of creating an in- terest in something that is consid- ered to be new and unusual for producing abnormal mental or physical stimulation. The tragedy of a deatli is suffi- cient justification for the industry to ask your cooperation in help- ing to avoid the exposure of un- knowing students to these possibly serious consequences. While the highlighting of a problem may re- sult in creating interest in it rather than terminating its use. the in- dustry has, because of these deaths involving glass-chillers, decided to make this information available to responsible persons who have inti- mate contact with those in the six- teen to twenty-one year age group.

No gripe box is complete with- out a group of completely unquie ideas, and they were brought out by these four statements by two of our young ladies on Campus. They can't he readily answered, but should be discussed not only by the faculty members but also by the students. They are: 1. Allievate the present system of cuts.

Man and His War By Emanuel Larkin The dawn of conflict arose in man, As he encountered difficulties in i-- land. A war of independence has been fought, Which the lives and blood of men have bought. There have been disputes over boundaries of land. For each nation firmly look her stand, War between empires of Caesar's day, Has influenced bitterness lo come our way. Wars have been compromised with a treaty, While oilier nalions ceased lo be greedy, Conflicts brought ahoul World War I and II. Yet man realizes lhat he is not yet through. Wars have been fought far and near, Even in that Asiatic land of Korea, Man has fought in many revolu- tions. Yet he has no perpetual ending solutions. War is the time of dreadful hours. It was demonstrated at Okinawa, The conflicl of war slitl rises in his land. For there is even war in Vietnam. Years have passed and war cannot he undone. For man figbls until he has won, This conflict of war may readily cease, And bring lo this world glorious peace.

Let's stop wasting time in classes and get on with our Christmas shopping. Follow- ing are a number of gift suggestions, all easily obtainable at your nearest war surplus boutique. First, a most unusual gift idea, brand new this year and certain to please everyone on your list a gift cer- tificate from the American Veterinary Medicine Associa- tion ! Each certificate is accompanied by this charming poem: Merry Christmas, north and south, Does your cow have hoof and mouth? And your dog, fidele semper, Here's a cure for his distemper. Little kitten, cute and squirmy. Bring her in. I think she's wormy. To bunnies, turtles, parrots green, Joyeux Noel! Heurcux Vaccine! Are you wondering what to give that extra-special man on your list? Stop wondering. Give him that extra-special shaving combination. Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades and Burma Shave. Each gift is accompanied by this, charming poem: Christmas merry, Nov Year bonny, From your friendly blade Per sonny. You icill have theladies fawning, If you're shaving with Persawning. Injector style or double edges, Both are made by good Pcrsedges. And Burma-Shave in plain or menthol. Leaves your face as smooth as rcnthol. (NOTE: As everyone knows, renthol is the smoothest substance ever discovered. You may not know, however, that renthol is named after its inventor, Ralph Waldo Renthol, who developed it by crossing a swan with a ball bearing. ) (Interestingly enough. Mr. Renthol did not start out to be an inventor. Until age 50 he was a Western Union boy. Then fate took a hand. One day while delivering a singing telegram to a girl named Claudia Sigafoos, Ralph noted to his surprise that the telegram was signed "Claudia Sigafoos!" She had sent herself a birthday greeting! (When pressed to explain, Claudia told Ralph a heart- rending tale. It seems that when she was only six weeks old, her parents were killed in an avalanche. The infant Claudia was found by a pair of kindly caribou who raised her as their own. They taught her all they knew like how to rub bark off a tree and which lichens are better than other lichens-but in time they saw that this was not enough. When Claudia reached age IS, they entered her in Bennington. I Unused to people, Claudia lived a lonely life so lonely, in fact, that she was reduced to sending herself birthday greetings, as we have seen. (Ralph, deeply touched, married Claudia and tried his best to make her mingle with people. It didn't work. They went nowhere, saw no one, except for an annual Christmas visit to Claudia's foster parents, Buck and Doe. To while away his long, lonely hours, Ralph finally built a work bench and started to futz around with inventions, as we have seen. (It is pleasant to report that the story of Ralph and Claudia ends happilv. After the birth of their two chil- dren, Donder and Blitzen, Claudia joined the PTA and soon overcame her fear of people. Ralph joined the Elks. ) But I digress. Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night! Ho-ho-ho! * * * mi.

Beban was fourth in ihe Heis- man balloting behind Florida's Steve Spurrier. Bob Friese of Purdue and Notre Dame's Nick Eddy last season as a junior. He earned the trophy this year with a spectacular season in which he gained 1,586 yards in tolal offense and accounted for 19 touchdowns passing and rushing. lie finished his carer with 10 UCLA offensive records. The Bruins h a s struggled through ihree straight losing sea- son- before Beban arrived in 1965. In three years he has piloted I CLA to 23 victories, five losses and three ties. UCLA was 7-2-1 this season. "It is inconceivable that anyone could be of more value t oa team than "Beban is to ours," said his coach, Tommy Prothro. "He can be a loser for 56 minutes but keep you poised for the big play that will make you a winner." A scrambler, Beban relies on his ability to run almost as much as his passing. "I've always admired scrambling quarterbacks like Fran Tarkenton," be says. "I think they are the wave of the future in fool- ball." Beban polled 369 first-place ballots and 1,968 total points to beat out 0. J. Simpson. Southern California's dynamic running back. Beban will receive the Heis- man Trophy, the 33rd, on Dec. 7 at the Downtown A.C. Simpson finished witli 261 first- place voles and 1,722 total poinls. Simpson, a junior, was the na- tion's leading rusher. Leroy Keyes of Purdue, who led the nation in scoring, finished third with 278 first-place voles and 1 .366 points. "I have mixed emotions over winning." said Beban in a tele- phone interview. "I'm surprised at the choice because there were three fine candidates. Of course, I'm very grateful," Beban said that his joy at winning the award was tempered somewhat by UCLA's tough 21- 20 loss to Southern Cal, which clinched a Rose Bowl berth for Simpson's Trojans. "That game was clearly the climax of three years for all the seniors on our squad," Beban said. "We put all we bad into it but wound up one point short. We were proud but disappointed." Beban, Simpson and Keyes dominated the balloting, with fourth place going to fullback Larry Csonka of Syracuse, who had 136 points.

Leo Richardson, announced that former grid and basketball star Charles Rutland became the first player in SSC history to ink a professional foot- ball contract when he signed with the Kansas City Chiefs. Floyd Wells, representing the Chiefs at the signing, commented. "Rutland is the best prospect I've seen all season and is definitely the finest lineman I've signed since Macklee Hill, former great at Southern University." Floyd went on to say that he was quite impressed with Rut- land's size and speed and feels that he can fit into the Chiefs" lineup at offensive guard. During the interview. Rutland. a former defensive end and tackle at SSC, with some offensive end playing time to his credit, was clocked at 4.9 in the 40-yard dash. despite not being on the playing field in over 18 months. A native of Winter Garden. Florida. Rutland was a starter at center for two years of junior college competition and two years in basketball for the Tigers. Rut- land is expected to receive a B.S. degree in Physical Education this June just before reporting to training camp. i Adams Correspondent Richardson commented. "I'm glad to see Rutland get this oppor- tunity and I think he'll develop into a fine player for the Chiefs. He has good size and excellent speed for a man his height." Richardson also commented that several other athletes at SSC were being scouted by pro teams, in- cluding running back Felix Bell, who stands 5-10 and weighs 205. 'During a couple of games in Alabama this past season several scouts talked to me about Felix, including another fellow from Kansas and I think there is a good chance he'll get picked in the future," the SSC boss said. Richardson concluded by say- ing that all conference fullback Frank Bell (6-0, 210), defensive halfback Israel Randall and former Johnson High gridder Judson Brown (6-3, 2301 are all good pro prospects. Rutland expressed thanks to those who had made this oppor- tunity possible and commented that he'll do his best to make the squad and encourage the recruit- ing of more players from SSC. A graduate of Charles R. Drew High School, Rutland was named to the District All-Tournament team his senior year, played in the SSC starting team in basket- ball three years and played varsity football one year.

By Bobby Swain Carlyle More llian three fourths of the faculty nt SSC are very cruel and unreasonable with I lie students thev tear)] daily. I would just like to know why llie instructors are this way? Is that a part of being a college instructor: to be cruel and unreasonable with the stu- dents; to refuse to discuss with a student the reason for giving the student a D or an F: to refuse In give the student [lie amount of class cuts that the college allows him: to fail a student because lie disagrees with the instructor in class and presents his opinion concerning the matter along with farts: to threaten a student with a grade of D or F if the student does nol iln a particular favor for the instructor outside class on his free time. If a student makes a complaint against an instructor to the Dean of Faculty, it is just a waste of time. The Dean will always agree with the faculty member and does not know whether or not the faculty member or student is lying. There are many times the instructor tells lies about the stu- dent, but the instructor get away with his dishonesty. The poor stu dent is never thought of as a person who can also tell the truth. I say this from experience because it happened to me. 1 think it is time we as stu- dents begin to do something about this matter. Instructors are not like this at many other colleges. Maybe we should all transfer to some other college and sec what these crazy instructors at SSC would do then. After all, we are the reason for them having a job at SSC. Without us, the students at SSC, these inhuman and un- reasonable instructors would not be here. It is because of us that they are able to receive a salary hen' .il SSI .iii-l still Mm \ treal us like we are the most stupid group n| people in this whole world. Il is impossible for 2.S students in a class of 35 to fail. Whenever this does happen, then the in- structor has not taught, but merely sat at his desk and acted as a dictator during the entire quarter. No. we cannot learn any- thing under dictatorship form of leaching: we are too use to our good old democratic form of doing things here in America. Yes, the instructors at SSC are lot i unfair to the students here and something has to be done about this matter soon, if SSC is going to continue to increase its student body each new term as il has done in the past. Otherwise, the student bodv is going to gradually decrease in the near future. With much hope things will get better for the students at SSC. Racism Coming to an End By Harold Jackson Learning to accept the Negro as an individual has been a hard task for the white majority, to give the Negro dignity, to let him be a part of this country. This is all the Negro is asking for. The President's Commission for Racial Disorder reported on last summer's riots to the nation in simple terms that racism, as such, must come to an end. The real problem is not the Negro rioting, but the white man's unwillingness to help the Negro needs. No longer can the white man bribe the Negro with false promises; no longer can the Negro tolerate injustice. The time to react is now, not tomorrow. There has been too many tomorrows as far as the Negro is concerned. Everything must come to an end sometimes, the death of racism is long overdue. Rioting as seen by many seems unnecessary and fruitless. But how can it be when the real cause is always overlooked. Let's take the Detroit riot for example. The condition of Negroes living in the gheltoes were substandard: jobs for Negroes almost inexistant with unemployment among Negroes very high; housing situation was deplorable; just imagine people in our modern society living without the bare necessities. Too many times the so-called pot of plenty has been filled, with the white man emptying it and leaving the remainder for the Negroes. Now the situation calls for reconciliation of past feelings toward the Negro and the acceptance into this society. This country, founded on Democratic principles, has too long neglected its responsibility for which it was founded: Equality of all, regardless of race, creed or color. If this country is to sustain its basic concept of government, it can no longer deprive any individual of a chance in this society. There have been many reactions to the Commission's report. One such reaction by former Governor Wallace is completely amazing. He stated in effect that the report should not be accepted as factual, and he also denied the fact that racism played a leading role in last sum- mer's disorders. If he had read more, he would have known that the Commission was right. In his heart he knows they were right anyway. Looking ahead to the hot summer months, one might predict that the situation in large cities will be an encore from last summer. That is, the Negro will not act through peaceful means but through violence in the streets. Students React To Dr. King's Death A small canvas was taken of several students as to their re- actions to Dr. King's death. These comments were recorded: Calvin Butts, Sophomore, Bi- ology major: "I was appalled at such occurrence in these critical times." Gloria Johnson, Sophomore. Elementary Education major: "When I heard the news bulletin about Dr. King, my feelings were strange. I was shocked, sort of afraid, and yet I found it hard to believe." Diane Childs, Sophomore, Busi- ness Administration major: "I thought that it was a tragic event, but I think that as a result of it, a lot of progress will be made within the civil rights movement. Nevertheless, the guilty person is not sick, but was well aware of his act. It was unfortunate that he died in what he believed, in our democracy, which gives the freedom of speech, etc.. to us." Hilda F. Harvey, Sophomore. Home Economics major: "When I liiMid ibiiui I ii . K mi: I i ouldn'l believe it. It seemed so unreal, as if I was in a dream world." Etta E. Anderson, Sophomore. Elementary Education major: "I felt that I had lost a member of my family. My mind was mixed with all sorts of e motions, sym- pathy, hate and anger. I felt that America had lost its greatest friend as far as peace was con- cerned." Maxine Camaroon, Sophomore. Business Administration major: "My first thought was that of disbelief. I didn't believe that any- one could go to such an extent to make themselves known as to kill a man who was a friend to the world," Mary Milam. Sophomore, Eng- lish major: "I was shocked and found it hard to believe. I began to wish that I could have found him in his office once again as 1 had done many times before." Sophia Way, Sophomore. Chem- istry major: "The man might be dead, but the revolutionary move- ment for which he lived for will live forever." Betty Nickerson, Sophomore. Business Education major: "I think it was a terrible tragedy and that the world suffered a great loss but the question that's puz- zling my mind is what will they do to his assassin, once he's caught, my heart pours out to his family." Dr. D. W. Allen Teacher Education Day Speaker Dr. Dwight W. Allen, Dean of the School of Education, Univer- sity of Massachusetts. Amherst. Massachusetts, will be the key- note speaker for the eighth annual Teacher Education Day Conference sponsored by the Di- vision of Education, Savannah State College on Thursday. May 2. 1968. Dr. Allen, former direc- tor of micro-teaching study at Stanford University is interna- tionally known for his experi- mental work in educational innovations. The Teacher Education Day program highlights professional education, especially student teach- ing and the role of the supervising teacher, according to Dr. Thelma M. Harmond. Chairman of the Division of Education. The theme of this year's con- ference will be "The Supervising Teacher and the Challenge of Innovation." From the Editor's Desk A Black Day in a Black Life Upon learning of the death of the great leader of non-violence, sadness and shock simultaneously set in. The next day the campus was restless, not to mention the affairs of the previous night. Students were gathered in front of the College Center. Cars were parked in the streets, the victory bell toned, the unrest was felt across the azalea laden cam- pus. Rumore were wild march!! Sing! just what was next, no one could be sure. I joined a small group of friends and ponderedly, we advanced toward the milling group. At once the crowd had moved from the Center to Meldrim Hall, then to Wiley Gymnasium. As we reached the main entrance of the gym, a quiet fear covered me. I won- dered, as a group of college students, how radical and drastic could we be. Was this loud disorganization a way to memorialize such a great person? After entering the gym, on stage, some of the readily identifiable militant Black Power advocates, some of the less militant, the NAACP V.P.. the SGA President, some advocates of the "Black Culture" movement and some j-u-s-t students were there. Of course. Dr. Jordan and Dean Kiah were also present. President Jordan told of class being suspended for the remainder of the day and the day of Dr. King's funeral. In speaking to the students. President Jordan reflected great concern as he called for sound thinking and judgment along planning. "Whatever you do," resounded the president, "do it with his (King's) philosophy in mind." As he walked from the mike, emphatic applause raised from the stu- dents. Never saying don't to the fairly emotional studentshe under- stood what we wanted. After him, speakers with different stands talked to us. In essence. Donald Cook, the first student up, weighed care for Dr. King with action. "Show concern by going down town to the court house, to kneel, sing and pray." He called on the students to lead now. Afterwards Edna Jackson came to the stand and told students to be representative I dress-wise) of SSC students and organize for a just cause. "Black Power" brothers and sisters was the opening unernphatic words of the third unidentified male student. He expressed concern for female welfare. In case of "trouble" downtown he told the females that "they would be placed in cars and returned to the cam- pus.'^ NAACP Vice-President, Charles Gaulden: "Use King's philoso- phy," don't take any weapons down, violently. At that moment, Donald Cook injected that if anyone "Hit you kick the hell out of 'em" in self-defense. Cook said for every driver of a car to be the overseer of the group that he drove. Well dressed, tall and intellectual-looking. William F. Julian admonished the crowd to put pride in self and get identity. "Dr. King had this pride and identity." Julian advised students not to "Lower yourself to the hounky be better because BLACK is beautiful." Well received he made room for the next speaker. SGA President John E. Lang thought that the movement to take place downtown was ill-named and it should be called a memorial march. He alleged that the students didn't have to go to a white man's power place to memorialize King il could be done on campus, "but." stated Lang. "If we're to go, go peacefully." Donald Cook angrily disagreed with Lang and called him a "pup- pet for the administration." The students disagreed with Cook by- booing his comments on Lang. Charles Wilhite, Junior Class President, asked the students to com- mit themselves as did King and that "More could be done to perpetuate his memory if we made personal followings." Thundering applause showed student agreement to Wilhite's short, well-worded message. An unidentified female student, who seemed highly emotional, asked the students to listen to Wilhite. NAACP President. Loretta Stevens, told the students that Gaulden. NAACP Vice President, took it upon himself to commit the NAACP in the downtown march and that she was, as President of the organiza- tion, unaware of the plans for the march. Afterwards, she asked the students to stick together. In conclusion. President Jordan said for us to "search your souls for the answers, do not be blindly led act with conviction and what- ever you do do so with dignity in a manner representative of the college. Go in a spirit of reverence and do not allow yourselves to be swayed by mass hysteria." Joining in the crowd, I heard mixed feeling concerning the pro- posed march downtown. Personally, I cared about the upheaval of unorganization on our campus. Maybe I am not the militant that many fellow students are but I found this day to be a time for deep thought before any action a time to reason with one's self to find a way to gain the Black Pride and dignity that Julian spoke of. Basically, the students here conducted themselves, with a few exceptions, in a way superior to many of the other predominantly- Negro institutions. 'Tis true that a man was killed, not just any man but THE leader of people who had a dream, a great dream for America and the BLACK man. He will be missed by all of us, but many of us share his dream and it is now our dream a dream which I hope to see come true. Civil Rights Workers Needed in Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia Summer 1968 Many black people are starving by malnutrition in these areas. The Southern Rural Research Project has a massive direct action program planned to fight the discrimination in Federal agriculture and welfare programs which cause much of this suffering. College students, medical students, and law students are needed to work in the field this summer, whether for a few weeks or for the entire summer. For further information contact: SRRP. P. O.

Sopho- more and Senior class. Mr. Hill attended the World Youth Con- ference in Japan and lectured in London. England on Race Rela- tions. At present he is in the Law Practice. He received his Law Degree from Howard University, class of 1966. Open with the recitation, I've Known Rivers, Mr. Hill addressed the audience in part from the side of the podium. He told the stu- dents that he had "Shared our same experiences as eating the garbage in ihe dining hall, push- ing cookies behind Meldrim and trying to cut assembly." The speaker from his first word held the undivided attention of the audience. In one reference to the slate of Mississippi he called it "sissippi because they {Missis- sippiansl don't call him mister and he don't call them Miss. The "Agony of Being Black and Educated" was Hill's topic. In opening formally he told the audience that one has to conceed blackness and lhat Nat Turner's mother told him that, "Education will bring you torment and agony." He continued by saying that the growing pain to be edu- cated and black is the high and fruslrating price that we pay. Hill considered it "Lies and garbage when commencement speakers tell us lhat now doors of all types will open up." Hill commented on the present division among the Negro race. In that a recent Jet magazine was making a poll as to what Negroes preferred being called. He called this split a fragmenta- Bioloy Dept. Holds Seminars As of March 26, 1968, the Biology Department of Savannah Stale began holding seminars in the interest of that department. The first seminar was conducted by Mrs. M. Robinson, a botany instructor, on the topic: "The Ocean: Fertile Pastures of To- morrow." Mr. Bernard Wood- house, an instructor of biology, conducted the second seminar, "Exen fee: Docs it Help to Ward ofl IU.nl Trouble." Dr. Villella .a member of the Department of Biology is respon- sible for presentation of the third seminar, which will take place on the 23 of April. His topic will be: "The Use of Radiation in Biology." This topic will provide a greal deal of interest and in- formation because many of ils uses have been recently dis- covered. Following Dr. Villella. the last two seminars will be held on ihe 14 of May. John Mattox will talk about, "The Effccls of Smoking," although this is a broad subject. Mr. Mattox is going to present some relatively unknown informa- tion. Sharon Bryant will discuss, "The ACTH Molecule" on the same program. Man has made much progress in his study of the molecule because of the invention of the election microscope. This discussion will bring a new phase of knowledge into every mind. We urge everyone to attend these lectures; science majors as well as non-science majors. A great deal of knowledge may be obtained from these seminars. Harold Wesley, President Biology Club Peaee Corps Comes To SSC The students at Savannah Stale College had a chance to get first- hand knowledge on the operation and information of the Peace Corps when they visited on April I, The representatives from the Corps gave the students a greater insight into the aspect of the Corps' activities. They also sought new applicants fur services into the Corps. The Corpsmen discussed the Corps' idea logy, its organization, its goals, its accomplishments, and some of its problems in specific countries. The activities of the Corps has greatly enriched the relationship with those countries of the world and individuals who participate. They also explained the Peace Corps' Iraining program to students and the relations of the volunleer to the host country. The individual representatives from the Corps gave their views oti the selection and the Iraining program as it relates to what is accomplished. The students had a chance to question ihe representatives in the afternoon session. tion of that which should be united. "White America," commented Hill has proven its incompetence to deal with problems. In that it has lied in ancient and current history. He iterated the startling fact to the audience that Okla- homa just repealed ils law re- quiring Negroes to put their heads in a laughing barrel if they wanted to laugh in public. (Of course ihis was not still enforced.) In reference to poverty he thought of Wallace. Mattox and Kirk were worse. Upon concluding, he received a grand applause and finally ad- monished the students to "Love thyself; not as a Narcissistic com- plex, but out Blackness."

Thank you kindly in advance for your suggested books and book reviews. Book Review Editor. Tiger's Roar Monkey On A String, bv Joseph Viertel. Joseph Viertel has written a startling novel that is likely to be remembered for a variety of rea- sons. It is the first novel in recent years to portray the Negro who attains success in the white world yet somehow finds, in the end, that this is not enough, for the tensions and frustrations that plagued him on the way up have merely intensified. The work is the story of Marcus Gravey Holmes who was born in a home in the South and grew up in a Negro ghetto in a New England village. He managed to achieve an appointment lo West Point, served with distinction as an officer in the Korean War. and joined the State Department. where he eventually ended up as Ambassador to one of the newly emerging African nations. Mean- while he has married Robbi. his white high school sweetheart, and seemingly has the best of two worlds but before long Marcus begins to suspect that he is really accepted by neither, that whites patronize him because of his position and most Negroes feel that he has sold out to the white world in order to attain it. Even his wife, loving but extremely neurotic, does give him a lovely daughter who loves him truly, often acts in such a highly irrational manner that Marcus comes to believe that she too considers herself superior to him. He finally kills her and the act is settled as suicide, because she was known to be self-destructive and had been twice under psychiatric treatment. In the end his world topples around him and leaves him living in involuntary exile. In the huge 414 page hardback novel. Mr. Viertel proves that he is one of the finest story tellers. for Money On A String covers a vast canvas brillantlv. both in time and geographical space, and i- peopled by a dazzling variety of characters, both Negro and white. don't you try M.

This organization has become widely known, not only on cam- pus, but throughout the city of Savannah, it is none other than the Black Awareness Coordinat- ing Committee. It was organized in early March of this year by eight sincere students who wished to identify with the 'forgotten' heritage and culture. Since that time the membership has in- creased to twenty-six. The purpose of BACC is to have Black People redefine them- selves with blackness I for if a flower is deprived of its nature, it will soon perish), and at the same time influence fellow black students to become aware that we are all black, there is no in- dividualism; that we must see black as it is Beautiful and Victorious. To rebel against a racist insti- tution does not mean that the re- beller is a racist las racism in reverse). It does mean, however, that here in America the "vault" shall no longer be the only mode of liberation of black people from the shackles of oppression. We perceive that a spectre is haunt- ing America. The officers are: Ronald Clark, chairman: Benjamin Harris, min- ister of letters: Leroy Haven, minister of public relations; Franklin Butler, minister of de- fense; William P.

Since living in Philadelphia, in addition to industrial design- ing, he devotes some of his time to painting portraits of leading politicians in Pennsylvania.

The onlj harvest reaped b iii- i- ,ni accumulation of poor grades the natural consequence of not haying been physical!) and mentally present when the erudition was being offered ! Human wise I have observed the idiosyncrasies, the foibles, the shortcomings of the Instructors here but. truthfully, intended malice is a thing I have nol witnessed. The firmest, yet the kindest person. I know is one of our revered Professors at Savannah Stale College. The respect shown by this Professor for the individual, especially his beneficial attention to the indigent student, favorably contributes to- wards unforgetable memories of SSC. In the more exclusive Universities of former days, scorn for any- thing coming from the lips or pen of an undergraduate, seemed to be the style anion- those who had achieved the laurels of the utmost rung ol the academic ladder, Dr. Samuel Johnson, the renowned British lexicographer felt more indebted towards those Instructors who led him to where knowledge was than to those who prodigiously shared tb.ir ..wn acquisitions. Personally I too like to think of the libr as the poor man's university. Honored and onerous as a Dean's task is. there are I am sure. days when his job is the most unenviable on campus. How can one uphold faculty ethics, maintain academic protocol, arbitrate between Instructor and student, without making someone feel that temporarily. at least, he is the injured party. Naturally the Dean'- rebuke to the Instructor will take place when the student has withdrawn from the scene. From our childhood days have we not been familiar with the adage, "You can't please everybody"? Be that as ii ma y, I still have faith in the faculty members and Student bod) of Savannah Stale. As this is the last time I exercise im student right of contributing to the editorial page of Tiger's Roar.

In the wake of the death of peace martyr Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.. do you believe that there "ill be much rioting this s u m m e r ? If so, state your thoughts as to what it will even- tually lead to. Arliska Dunnom, Sophomore "Yes. I believe that the death of Dr. King will trigger many riots during the summer. 1 believe that the riots eventual!) will only lead to a war between black and white Americans. If riots continue. America will soon be destroyed." David Goings, Junior "I feel thai Dr. King's death will not be the cause of riots this summer. Failure to meet Negro demands of equal opportunities will serve as the trigger for summer riots." Martha Butts, Junior "Yes. I think that much rioting will be done and will ultimately lead to death." Shirley McCray, Freshman "No, I don't feel as if Dr. King's death will cause rioting. I feel that most people in slum areas un- derstand his philosophy of peace, more now than before his death." Ronald Ruers, Freshman "This was a great loss to the black people of America, and this is go- ing to cause a great amount of trouble in my home. Newark. Black people in Newark are very upset." Beverly Hunter, Freshman "Dr. King's death was indeed tragic, it left the Negroes with the feeling that we must keep on pushing. The motives for the summer riots (if there are any). may directly or indirectly relate to Dr. King's death. In any event, the United States is in for a long HOT summer." Isoiene Cooper, Freshman "Yes. I think Dr. King's death wi|] lead to rioting this summer. Be- cause whites don't want to accept our non-violent ways. I think the after effects will be more severe than the past effects have been previously. Major riots could re- sult because the nonviolent meth- od- brought Dr. King a violent death, therefore many people no longer believe in the non-violent method." Bessie Thomas, Freshman "I don't believe so because Dr. King's philosophy of non-violence had played out long ago. Most urban Negroes have turned to the mili- tant leaders. The riots which are m\ itable won't be caused by peo- ple who still believe in non- violence. The results will be much more deaths." The last statement by Larry Al- len sums it up simply : Robert Larry Alien, Freshman "Yes, probably a lot of huskie funerals." arship 203.

The institute, which is the second of its kind, will be supervised by Dr. Willie G. Tucker. The objectives of the institute are: 1. To offer the teacher with a very weak background in chemistry an opportunity to increase his knowledge of the subject matter. 2. To help fill out a void in the teacher's background in subject matter so that he may be motivated enough to eventually begin an advanced study in the field of chemistry rather than the traditional education courses. 3. To increase the teacher's capacity to motivate students into science careers, 4. To create in the teacher a greater awareness of anil appret iation for the work of prominent scientists. The participants will not be charged any fees or tuition, but he must pay for his housing, meals, books and other personal expenses.

Lhude sing cuccu!" Anon. Well, anyone who spells like that should remain anonymous, How- ever, further down in this column we'll direct our attention to F. Scott Fitzgerald and there's a guy who knew a thing or two about words. But first, now that Summer is indeed a-comin', let's look at some new trends in men's fashions. The strong influence of the Thirties continues to be very important, Consider, for instance: THE TANK TOP, an integral part of the two- piece bathing suit, brought up to date from the Thirties. This form-fitting athletic shirt now serves fashion rather than function, and comes in vivid colored horizontal stripes of nylon, lycra and cotton. Stretch fabrics eliminate the baggy look and set off a well-tanned, good pair of shoulders much better than the conventional T-shirt. It can be worn with regular swim suits or beach pants, and looks particularly right teamed with mid belted trunks. Or if this sounds too conservative, try . . . f I " J I thigh Greenbrier Orphan Home Dr. C. A. Braithwaite directs the Choral Society as they perform for the local orphanage. He is accompanied by Patricia A. Mobley. TRIMMED-DOWN TRUNKS that continue the trend toward brev- ity in beachwear. These are not repeat, not a type of Bikini. The look is very masculine: squared-off with straight legs and slung low on the hips. Fabrics range from poplins and linen weaves to stretch action weaves. Colors are conventional solid tones no zebra stripes or phosphorescent purples, thank you! For those in search of beachwear bizarre, there are . . , "GRANDDADDY NIGHTSHIRTS"- outrage- ously patterned versions of bedtime wear 30- odd years ago. But now they've moved from bedroom to beach and may be worn equally well by boys and girls alike. The colors are psyche- delic and the patterns zing out in bull's-eye dots and giant stripes, Not for the faint-hearted, these nightshirts will be the "put-on" of the Summer. THE LIGHT TOUCH of color is the news in suits this Summer. If you're toiling for tuition instead of basking on the beach, don't think you're stuck with navy blue and banker's grey. A whole color spectrum of lighter, paler shades will be at your disposal. With these we suggest the dark tone shirts for contrast. And carrying lighter shades to the nth degree, we have , . . THE WHITE SUIT! F. Scott Fitzgerald glorified this fashion in "The Great Gatsby" but in those days his suffering anti-hero sweltered out the Summer in white flannel. Now we have twills of polyester and viscose blends, linens and very lightweight textured wool to help you to keep your cool. The fabrics are easy to care for and will keep crisp and comfortable through repeated wearings. Expect to see the white suit everywhere from country clubs to business offices, from Malibu to Madison Avenue. SO GET CRACKING on those finals and build up the grade point. Then you can phase into Summer free and easy, ready to cool it with these fashion ideas. Have a ball see you next Fall. Copyright, June 1968 ESQUIRE, Inc. =2 Till!

Congratulations College Grads of 1968 On Campus (By Ihe author of "Rally Round Ihe Flag. Ilous: "Dohie Gillis," etc.) with MaxQhulman FROM THE HALLS OF PROTOZOA This column, normally a treasure house of twinkly quips and slapdash japery, has now been appearing in your campus newspaper for fourteen years, and if I have learned one thing in these fourteen long years, it is not to try to be funny in the last column of the semester. With final exams looming obscenely close, you don't want jokes; you want help. So today, foregoing levity, I give you a quick cram course in the subject you are all flunking. I refer, of course, to biology. Biology is divided into several phylla, or classes. First is the protozoa, or one-celled animal. Protozoa can be taught simple things like bringing in the newspaper, but when shopping for pets it is best to look for animals with at least two cells, or even four if your yard has a fence around it. Another popular class of animals is the periphera-a shadowy category that borders often on the vegetable. Take, for example, the sponge. The sponge is definitely an animal. The wash-cloth, on the other band, is definitely not. Next we come to the arthropoda, or insects. Most people find insects unattractive, but actually there is exquisite beauty in the insect world if you trouble to look. Take, for instance, the lovely insect poems of William Culler] Signfoos-Tuni bliny Along with the Tumbling Tumblebug and Fly Gently, Sweet Aphid and Gnats My Mother Caught Me. Mr. Sigafoos, alas, has been inactive since the invention of DDT. Our next category is the mollusca-lobsters, shrimp, and the like. Lobsters are generally found under rocky projec- tions on the ocean bottom. Shrimps are generally found in a circle around a small bowl containing cocktail sauce. Person na Super Stainless Steel Blades are generally found at any counter where Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades are sold. I mention Personna Blades because the makers of Per- sonna Blades pay me to write this column, and they are inclined to get edgy if I neglect to mention their product. Some get double edgy and some single, for Personna Blades come both in double edge style and Injector style. Mind you, it is no burden for me to mention Personna, for it is a blade that shaves quickly and cleanly, slickly and keenly, scratchlessly and matchlessly.lt is a distinct pleas- ure to shave with Personna Blades and to write about them but sometimes, I confess, I find it difficult to work the commercial into a column. Some years ago, for ex- ample. I had the devil's own time working a Personna plug into a column about Alexander the Great. The way I finally managed it was to have Alexander say to the Oracle at Delphi, "Oracle, I have tasted all the world's pleasures, yet I am not content. Somehow I know there is a joy I have missed." To which the Oracle replied, "Yes, Alexander, there is such a joy namely Personna Blades but, alas for you, they will not be invented for another 2500 years." Whereupon Alexander fell into such a fit of weeping that Zeus finally took pity and turned him into a hydrant . . . Well sir, there is no question I sold a lot of Personnas with this ingenious commercial, but the gang down at the American Academy of Arts and Letters gave me a mighty good razzing, you may be sure. But I digress. Back to biology and the most advanced phyllum of all the chordata, or vertebrates. There are two kinds of vertebrates: those with vertical backbones and those with horizontal. Generally it is easy to tell them apart. A fish, for instance, has a horizontal backbone, and a man has a vertical backbone. But what if you run into a fish that swims upright or a man who never gets out of the sack? How do you tell them apart? Science struggled with this sticky question for years before Sigafoos of M.I.T. came up with his brilliant solution : offer the crea- ture a pack of Personna Blades. If it is a fish, it will refuse. If it is homo sapiens, it will accept-and the more sapient, the quicker. And now you know biology. And now, for the fourteenth time, aloha. * * * I9. Mb.

The basic objective of this project is to reach each student's basic needs according to the time and facilities permitted. There are about 120 Upward Bound Students yvho were chosen from Chatham and other sur- rounding counties. There have been many activities planned to keep the students busy after class. Some of these extra-curricular ac- tivities are: art, creative drama, computer programming, current events, typing, and a physical fit- ness program. Upcoming events which they will enjoy are the movies, talent contests, musical productions and dances. Field trips and tours have been planned to Kennedy Space Center, historic Savannah, Local Industries, and the Beach. The Upward Bound Project of Savannah is being directed by- Mrs. Martha Wilson, an SSC fac- ulty member. She is being assisted by Mr. Daniel Wright, guidance counselor for this project. The Faculty and Staff for the project are: Communication Skills: Rob- ert Holt, Virginia Hudson, Abide Jordan, Otis Mitchell, and Louis Pratt ; Mathematics : Sylvia E. Bowen, Jacquelyn Byers, Maleom W. Hemdon, Joyce Washington; Great Issues : Wilhemina Dean. Mamie Hart.

Upward Bounders receive no grades, since the emphasis of the project is an unrestricted instruc- tion with the over-all view of the student in mind. There are over 250 other such projects and programs in the United States. The success of this project will depend upon the abil- ity of the instructor, who should be able to create an atmosphere which will point up the potential strength of each student.

The veterans will invest their G.l. benefits and the Foundation is partaking the expense of pay- ing the next two years of tuition and adding a living stipend to the veterans benefits. The Rockefeller Foundation is the sponsor of the grant which will pn.vid.- twent) fellowships to be awarded to the . ollege eligible veterans, "The grant will present bigger and better opportunities to the vet- erans," Dean Freeman said.

Brown To me, graduate studies mean an avenue of new ideas and atti- ludes. In the era in which we are now living, I feel it is particularly important for an individual to be as well trained as humanly pos- sible. I think by placing the grad- uate >iinlii-s prugram in our local college here at Savannah State, this can be partially realized. 1 fed the more trained 1 become, the more cognizant I become of oilier persons around me. I be- come less self-centered and more interested in understanding and helping other persons. I sincerely believe that this pro- gram will help me become more proficient in the field of education. I feel it will do this by developing within me an awareness of some of the newest trends and tech- niques in this area. It is making me more interested in doing research to investigate some of the latest theories of edu- cation. In addition to this, it is helping me to become more aware of myself as a person who can make a distinct contribution to the society in which I live. Since service to mankind is my greatest ambition, I sincerely hope that after 1 have completed my studies, and 1 do want to complete them, I will be a better person. I think of all the attributes I might gain, this will be the one 1 will cherish most. A Philosophy of Life By Delores Murray Philosophy of life has reference to one's outlook upon the world, his interpretation of the meaning of the world in which he lives and Ins relationship to it. This outlook is determined by his beliefs, views, altitudes, and understandings." Main college students of today are not aware that they have a philosophy of life. They are un- aware of the things that constitute a philosophy: they are unaware of the things that are influenced by philosophy: and most of all, they are unaware of the fact that phi- losophy plays an important role in determining the kind of person thai each of us is. Although it is true that many college students are not sure of their philosophies of life, none of them can be said to have no phi- losophy at all. Everyone inevi- tably develops some sort of philos- ophy, whether sound or unsound. 1 personally feel that if a col- lege student does not know his philosophy of life, there is no bet- ter time than the present to begin thinking about one. Deciding upon a philosophy is not a very difficult task. All it requires is time to think, which really shouldn't be too difficult since the purpose of college training is to develop the ability to think soundly. A person's philosophy plays a very important role in determining D. MURRAY his set of values those things that be considers worthwhile or cher- ished in life, Philosophy, more than any other force, influences choices and de- cisions that guide our behavior. If the philosophy is sound, the choices and decisions are apt to be sound. If the philosophy is un- sound, then the choices and deci- sions are unsound. A sound phi- losophy can only lead to worthy and rewarding goals in life. Veteran Fellowship (Continued iron, Page 1) the cooperating institutions which will bold the fellowships.

Upward Bounders Express Opinions Once again it is summer, and once again the Upward Bounders return to SSC. In a recent survey, by staff member Delores Murray, the ques- tion was asked, "What do you ex- pect to gain from attending sum- mer school as an Upward Bound student? 1 " The responses went something like this: "It will help to strengthen and prepare me for challenges that I will have to face when I enter col- lege." Lor nine Elleby. "It will help to make me a more well-rounded individual." Evon Holm es. "It will hel [> preepare me for college and it wilt also help me to gain educational and cultural things that Pve been deprived of." Earl Shinkoster. "It is giving me an opportunity to find out what it is like to be on my own, and it is helping to pre- pare me for college." Lillie Sim- mons. "Upward Bound is an exciting experience that helps me socially and mentally. It will aid in getting me prepared for college." Ezelle Manning. "It benefits me educationally, it broadens my social life, and it will enable me to adjust to college life." Larry Broxton. "It is giving me a head start in preparing for college. It also gives me a view of dormitory life." Janice Walker. "It will help prepare me for college life by aiding me to ac- quire more knowledge and under- standing." Johnnie Robinson. "It will prepare me for the com- ing school year and it will teach me to be more independent." Sherrill Cusperi. "Upward Bound has given me a new insight of college life, differ- ent people and their personalities, and the w : orld around me. It gives me a feeling of independence and self-preservation." Brenda Biz- zard. "Upward Bound helps to strengthen you to pursue a more profound education. It helps to rid our faults." Lawrence E. Wiggins. "It helps to orientate you to col- lege society. It also shows prox- imity to college life and the out- side world." W. W. Walker. "Upward Bound ht?lps me to bet- ter understand my work in high school. It also serves to help pre- pare me for college work." Judy Miliovich. "It has inspired me to continue my education. It has certainly created a college atmosphere." Ronnie Caski'n. My Opinion of the Graduate Program By Janice Perry Watkins Brunswick The addition of a graduate pro- gram at Savannah State College is a great asset. I am especially ap- preciative of it because it meets a great need for southeast Georgians. I feel very privileged to take ad- vantage of such a program in its early stage of development. I sin- cerely believe that this new divi- sion here in Savannah will up- grade the educational level for a majority of the teachers in this section of our state. I am thoroughly enjoying my classes which are under the direc- tion of well-prepared, stimulating, dynamic instructors. I am very grateful to be able to study near my home and family. I personally am looking forward to the time when other significant departments will be added to the program and hope that these fea- tures will be initiated in the near future. Fr, tin Editor's Desk MADDOX BLUE OVER "A PATCH OF BLUE" Recently Georgia's Governor Lester Maddox commented that the novel, A Patch of Blue, was "vulgar, ugly and dirty." This comment was in reality a public complaint. The complaint was brought about as a result of the required reading of it by a tenth grade English class. What the governor failed to foresee was that the already widely read book would sell even better as a direct result of his comments. Although he had read, said Maddox, only a part of the book, he com- mented that it was dirty. I wonder about the comments of the new readers, which will probably be something like. "Where's the dirtiness about which the governor spoke?" The book, to those who are unfamiliar, is concerning the friendship of a Negro male and a blind white girl. The novel was made into a movie of the same title, and a photograph taken from the movie is on the cover, showing the stars of the film, Sidney Poitier and Elizabeth Hartman. My point about the situation is that the total integration of the novel should not, by a sound thinking person be considered vulgar, nasty or the like. Probably if the book would have been of the type to have degraded the Negro, such as the short story, "The Artificle Nigger," which was written by a Georgian, the governor would have said nothing of it being read by a high school class. The fact is that the governor isn't knowledgable about the book's entirety. This incident brings to mind the high degree of hasty and fault) comments which are so common to man. Why speak in hasten there's always time: time to reason, time to wonder and TIME TO BE OBJECTIVE! ! ! Barbara J. Mobley Formation of Negro Press Announced Negro Universities Press an- nounces its formation as a com- plete, professional publishing or- ganization. Its main purpose is to develop, acquire, and publish orig- inal books written by scholars and specialists, affiliated with the more than one hundred American col- leges and universities that have predominantly Negro student bodies. In addition, NUP will publish a wide range of facsimile reprints of highly significant books land periodicals) related to Negro history and culture. This reprint program is entitled, "The Black Experience in America." Its first list of titles mainly concerns slavery in America. NUP will focus its original pub- lishing activities on manuscripts of a scholarly or professional na- ture, largely but not exclusively monographs, dissertations, and up- per-division texts, in all fields of general academic and intellectual interest. Books on and about the Negro are of special concern to the Press. Because of NUP's pri- mary objective to serve as an easily accessible publishing me- dium for prospective writers in American Negro colleges to so- licit manuscripts from this general source, and seek in every way to encourage the preparation of pub- lishable manuscripts by scholars and students in these institutions. Negro Universities Press is not exclusively associated with any single academic institution. Rather, as reflected by the membership of its Board of Publications, and by the affiliations of its published authors, the Press seeks to serve all o fthe Negro colleges equally. Upon acceptance of his manu- script for publication by NUP, an author will be offered a regular publishing contract. NUP will compete equally and without spe- cial favor or privilege with other publisbing bouses academic as well as commercial for the op- portunity to publish any given manuscript. No prospective au- thor will ever be expected to sub- sidize NUP publication of his book. The Board of Publications of Negro Universities Press now in- cludes: Felton G. Clark, President, Southern University; Hugh N. Gloster, President, Morehouse Col- lege: Vivian W. Henderson, Presi- dent, Clark College; Miles M. Jackson, Jr., Chief Librarian, At- lanta University ; Benj amin F, Pay ton. President, Benedict Col- lege: Benjamin Quarles, Morgan State College: Charles H. Wesley, Executive Director, The Associa- tion for the Study of Negro Life and History ; and Albert N. Whit- ing, President, North Carolina State College at Durham.

Llniversitv of Georgia Holds Session at SSC A Reunion and Review Session of the 1967 Community Develop- ment Work Conference, the 1967 Leadership Conference, and the 1968 Race Relations Conference was held on Wednesday, June 26 at Savannah State College. The -r-.-IWI V. .1- -|in||-ii[nl |n tin- I III versity of Georgia in conjunction with Savannah State College. John M. Smith, Jr.. Assistant Professor, Sociology, Augusta College, Au- gusta, Ga., directed the session. Wilton C. Scott, Acting Coordi- nator of Continuing Education. Savannah Slate College, was As- sistant Director. James E. Watson, Consultant in Community Devel- opment, Georgia Center for Con- tinuing Education, University of Georgia, also attended the session. The highlight of the session was the discussion of the problems of the Tatumville area. This report involved a series of long-range problems, which the lack of knowl- edge of what to do about them, and where to go for help prevented the residents of this community from doing anything about them. Some of the problems which prevailed in the communitv were: lack of playground area; poor street lighting; lack of water and sewage disposal; garbage being dumped in the community; and an overgrown area near the school. Of these, a lack of water and sewage disposal took precedence. For water, some of the residents used pressure pumps and others used electric pumps. However, after a group of the residents of this community took a course in Community Develop- ment, sponsored by the University of Georgia, at Savannah State College, they found the answer to the question of bow to secure help in solving some of their problems and other useful information. After the signing of a petition by trie residents of Tatumville. nu- merous talks with members of the City government, and a wide va- riety of coverage by the mass media, some improvements have been made to help the residents of the Tatumville area. Some of The Death of a header By Verdell L. Miller Shot down by an assassin's bullet. Was Dr. Martin Luther King, Nothing but peace and joy To the world did he bring. His philosophy is one of non-vio- lence and peace; Although the tragedy bears on, The night of the fourth leaves us To bear mournful grief. Oh how we miss you. Dr. Martin Luther King: And you are sadly missed. But we will bold your philosophy. On faith and trust amidst. Your voice still rings out, Over the whole wide world, For you are a symbol of dignity and peace. A symbol of pride and identity, Of what the Negroes stand for; All of their struggles for full rights as human beings. Throughout the whole wide world. Oh how we loved you. Dr. Martin Luther King, For the sound of that assassin's bullet still rings out; But the sound of your voice Rings out even louder without a shout. Oh how we love you, Dr. Martin Luther King, For your magic shall never be marred or shaded out; You have given us something to live by. You gave your life for us, Just as Jesus gave His life for His |H*o|.ik\ A Great Man By Julia Thomas Doctor Martin Luther King was very bright. Improving this world was his only fight. lie had a purpose in his mind. After his death the world was blind. He strived for goals and be strived for deeds, He strived for what this whole world needs. He traveled far and be traveled near, To hamlets and cities without a fear. Yes, a great man was Doctor King, Advocating freedom's ring. Now that his work on earth is done, And bis greatest victory is won. For he has passed his greatest test. And now has gone to God for rest. Ill a praying moment let us pause And resume the work for the cause. Secret Sounds By Dr. Charles Pratt If I had never written one line I still could write tonight Because the beauty on my mind Brings you right into sight. The thoughts 1 have of you, my dear Make every man a poet But the heart beat which I bear Is crime in any court. 1 see your face, 1 hear your voice, And these stay with me so That even if I had a choice I'd choose this way to go. Each beat is like a liberty bell Sounding for the cursed And tbo each brings me close to hell I must pass Heaven first. these improvements are: the clear- ing of the vacant lot near the school, streets have been opened, and all old automobiles have been removed from the area. However, there are still many improvements to be made. Speaking for the Tatumville Im- provement Association were: Mes- dames European Mungin, Margie M. Blake, Edith B. Collin^. Na- tbala Reynolds and Viola Reyn- olds. Also discussed at the session were the problems of a community located on the east side of the city. Day Dreaming By Dr. Chnrles Pratt As 1 sit and gaze upon your face And wish that you were here This is such a lonely place But the end is getting near. I look at you and then 1 know What woman was meant to be For in your eyes there burns a glow For all eternity. 1 hope you will forgive me. dear. If I seem terribly gone . . . For though I'm stranded way out here I don't feel quite alone! I feel your thoughts are with me now And though I have no right, ni always seek your love, some- how To make my living bright.

THE TIGER'S ROAR June -Jul). 1968 Workshop Materials Un Twenly-eight elementary and secondary school teachers from ihroughout Georgia arc enrolled in a workshop in methods and mate- rials currently in session al Sa- vannah Stale College, The one ex- ception is a nursery school teacher from New York City. The six-week session is designed to help teachers improve their leaching skills through workshop activities. Heavy emphasis is placed on self-direction as indi- viduals and as a group in the identification and exploration of problems faced by members of the teaching profession in general and the workshop in particular. Just how this is done or is to be done is a matter lefl up to the teachers themselves. In fuel, this problem itself was one of the first with which the teacher-scholars found themselves faced. Tr a d i t i o n a 1 1 y , however, the workshop utilizes such activities as informal discussion and debate, experimentation with Inboralory school t-iasses, audio-visual mate- rials, and the study and analysis of the views and opinions on edu- cational topics us put forth by consultants who visit the workshop during the summer. Earl) in the session, an organi- zational session was held during which the following persons were selected as officers: Chairman: Mr. Henry Harris. Assistant Chairman: Mr. Charles Elmore. Secretary: Mrs. Georgia Dick- erson. Assistant Secretary: Mrs. Caro- lyn Graham. Treasurer: Miss Janie Philpot. Library Committee Chairman: Mrs. Daisy Thomas. Calendar Committee Chairman: Miss Dora While. Public Relations Chairman: Mr. Elmer Thomas. Vitality Committee Chairman: Mrs. Trances Miller. A breakdown of the enrollment according to present and antici- pated areas of employment shows that a large majority of the par- ticipants are elementary school teachers. Ten instruct at the sec- ondary level, and one person is involved in teaching at the pre- school level.

BACC An Interview Staff member Sandra Bland re- cently interviewed BACC member Franklin Butler. The informal dis- cussion brought out the results of the May Black Aits Festival, its purpose and the general plan of action for his organization. In essence these results are now pre- sented to you. The purpose of the festival was to establish a base for a new re- vival of BLACKNESS; BACC feels that a black institution has a basic requirement to follow in relation to its black student body, which is a black education. If the black student, said Butler, takes it upon himself to educate himself concerning blackness, then we assume that the black instructors would be awakened to this need. When asked the main objectives ol the festival. Butler commented. "There are three: self- identity self - determination, self - defense." In detail, he discussed each of them. 1. Self-identity is to reunite black Americans with their African heritage, which was violently stripped from him by the slavery institution. 2. Self-determination To have the black man to define their own organization and business. It is a call to reject the racist institution of society. 3. Self-defense To protect and defend black manhood. Black people were stripped of their identity and self respect, therefore a need is present for defense against racist values and insti- tutions. Q- Under self-identity what means do your organization plan in prompting or bringing about awareness concerning our herit- age? A. (1) We have a weekly publication entitled BLACK PAPER. (2) We hold black work- shops every Wednesday. (3) Di- rect confrontation with black stu- dents on their values. Q.- Does your organization help one discover or dig into our ancestrial heritage through use of African names? A. The answer to your ques- tion is very obvious. Prior to 1610, one characteristic of African life was devotion to the family be- cause of its social, political and cultural heritage. With the coming of the white European and his de- humanizing slave trade, again. I point out that Africans were stripped of his cultural identity (his family, his custom ami an) other capability or habit acquired by the black man as a member of an African society). With this, his ancestrial background is im- |i 1 1 I . in ii.ii i'. (). What determination does your organization support in order to reach the black man's goals? A. Only through unity and brotherhood can the black Ameri- can determine his destiny. Q. How can we achieve unity? A. The basic split now in the black community is due mostly to the fact that some black (mostly middle class and light skinned ones) are to be white and re- jecting the idea that whites were oppressing them. But now more and more blacks are becoming aware that they are indeed the victims of oppression. More and more blacks are becoming aware uf their black heritage and are gaining a sense of black stride. They are indeed uniting with their lesser brothers to overthrow the power structure in America. In other words oppression breeds unity. Q. In your definition of self- defense, what ideas and action of protection does BACC advocate?

Way, Junior Chemis- try Major, engaged in summer re- search at the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture Stored Prod- uct Insects Research and Develop- ment Laboratory, Savannah, Geor- gia. In the Chemistry Depart- ment's Column, she tells of her experience, and the nature of her summer job. Work as an insect research as- sistant to the competent and dedi- cated Dr. Donald L. Silhacek is challenging, as well as instructive. As a result, much knowledge is being gained of instrumental ion and analytical techniques while applying the method of thin-layer chromatography to the separation of phospholipids and neutral lip- ids. What is the thin-layer chro- matography and why use it? Thin -layer chromatography (TLC) is a technique for separat- ing mixtures of closely related compounds. It offers three major advantages over paper chromatog- raphy, It has great speed, high sensitivity and versatility. TLC is performed on open lay- ers of adsorbent material applied as a uniform layer on a support- ing medium which is usually a glass plate. The plate is thor- oughly dried and the sample ma- terial is applied usually by pipet. The separation is dependent upon the ratio of solubility and adsorp- tion of the various substances in the mixture. Whereas, adsorption is the attachment of gas, liquids or dissolved substances on the sur- faces of solids. A solvent carrying the mixture to be separated is made to travel over the adsorbent by capillary action. The speed of this action is one of the character- istics of this technique. Separations are usually finished in ten to forty minutes, depending upon the adsorbent, sample com- plexity and choice of solvent.

The iwo members of the mission who visited SSC were: Beth Turner and Stephen Mbandi. Mbandi is a native of Camaroon, who has been in the United States for some time. The other members of the group, who were visiting elsewhere in the city were: Bob Hunter, Ann Adle and Ida Goodwin. In a question-answer session in Payne Hall at 2:30 that afternoon, Beth and Stephen addressed them- selves to several questions, among them: Q. What was the varying atti- tudes of students, who you've come in contact with? A. Turner We've found quite a few conservatives and some liberals. Mbandi I've met some aloof and sympcthie people. There has been a great bit of diversity of opinion as far as the war in Viet Nam. Opinion in general is very wide ranged. Q. (To Mbandi) Have you had any feeling of rejection among blacks? A. Yes, but not too much. I met some Nigerian student-- al Paine College in Augusta and they related segregation among black students al that school. But I'd been warned by other Negro friends abroad of the attitude of American Negroes. Concerning the status of women in C a in a r o o n , M b a n d i related that they are not completely sub- ordinated hi that society. How- ever, I he male has a feeling of self-responsibility for his family; a strong feeling of the role as bread-winner. Employment wise, the governmenl, said Mbandi, has equality laws of labor. Belh on the Far East situation commented that there should be negotiations before getting out. And through stopping of the bombing and negotiations, a com- plete withdrawal should become permanent. In answer lo another question, she also said that the United Stales is responsible for rebuilding that country and the funds for doing so should not be direct, but channeled through the United Nations. Mbandi elaborated on a ques- tion concerning the Biafra crisis in ibis manner: That the situation was complex and as far as he felt, Biafra was still a part of Nigeria. He also expressed his disagree- ment with the killings. The entire problem he further said, was one of "Historic tribal antagonism be- tween the Ebos and others." The blame, commented Mbandi, should also be placed on actions which the British were earliar respon- sible for. Following the formal discussion, a small group of students and one faculty member continued the questions which were always answered in full by the two visitors. In Absentia.

So, in order lo help yon to better understand your present social practices, here is a liiil- test to see how you rate socially. 1. Do you rrijerause nine times out of fen lie is in love with his wife. You probably don't know love from infatuation. Cynt Dear Cynt I am madly in love with this fellow; at times he acts the same way toward me, but he makes promises and never keeps them or even mention them again. What shall I do to stop this. Don't Understand Dear Don't Understand: Do nothing. Love is like thick and thin, when it's thick you stay, hut nhiri it is thin that's time for you h> thin out too. Cynt Dear Cynt: I am madly in love with this fellow, hut he ignores me. I think he likes me a whole lot. that's why I am holding on. What should I do? Confused Dear Confused: You haxe the answer to your problem without realizing it. You arc in love with him, but he likes you. Try ignoring him and see if he will come around. Cynt Dear Cynt: Food here at State is great, but the) don't serve you the right proportion to one's hunger. Slim Waist Line Dear Slim If'aist Line: Do like a majority of the stu- dents tit State, eat between meals. Cynt Hear ( \ nt : 1 have been given a bad name around here on campus by some most unfriendly person or persons. The information being given out about me is most unfair and of course wrong. Please give me a wa\ to get all of this straight with someone I care about. Bad Name Dear Bad Name: At one time or another all of us hair been called bad names. I don't know the extent of ba/lness of your name, but my advice to you is to forget about the name and don't shoiv displeasure when mentioned to you. Calling some- one a falsely acquired bad name shows ignorance on their part. Cynl He was cute, with little slits for eyes which were red and orange; he had two tiny horns on either side of his head and a long black tail. Quietly and with compelling matter-of-factness, Ira Levin tells a story of mounting terror and icy climactic shock. Few people who begin "Rosemary's Baby" will put it down unfinished; no one who finishes it will ever quite forget it. Debbye G.

Can you make a friend in a month, Or do you still have to wait and and wait? A friend is a person that's with you right or wrong, weak or strong. How long does it take for you to Make a friend?

How long does it lake for you to make a friend? Taken From "The Mind of a Bhtek Woman' By Jony Singleton A person with bad breath blows into A balloon polluting it with a stale Smoker's cough "How in the Hell can the air smell like this?" She thought as she walked through The myriads of musty, moldy, ragged people. All she could see was faded-out Greys, browns and blacks shaped in The forms of rags wrapped around The haggard, burly people covering Their skins and bones. She passed through them as a Bowling ball that misses the Pins and runs off into the gutter Yes the gutter all that she Had ever known these were her people. She finally reached "Home." "Home is where the heart is." Ha Home is where the rat's heart is Home is where the walls crack, water leaks. The next-door-neighbor beats his wife Damn breaking heart!

You mean so very much to me, A love, a guy and a friend, Ours is a love born of sincerity A beginning without an end. \ ou mean so very much to me Darling I can be any place. And need not concentrate too long To see your smile or face. 1 think of you each day God sends And never rest it seems. And over when I finally sleep I see you in my dream. You mean so very much to me No love can ever be As warm sincere, and beautiful As the love you have given me. Silting on her beaten down old bed. She puts her weary head into her Filthy nailed hands. In that Position, her head looked like a Mop that had been dropped in Black dye to hide the filth The disgusting dirt underneath. Finally raising her head pushing Back the stringy mopped hair. The tears ran full over her Mask of make-up dropping Downward- mixing with the Grease stains on her dress. How to escape all of this? She got up and began unbuttoning Her flashy, cheap red dress Remembering that she had to work Tonight. It was Friday night And the sailors had docked in Port today. It would be a Busy night here in her "Home sweet home." BACC Interview (Continued from Page I) A. We will not answer the question because the racist laws in this society prohibits free ex- pression: and we also feel that in order for the black man to survive. some things must be kept secret and defense merits this quality. Bland Concerning the Black Art Festival: Q. What were some of ihe stu- dent's reactions following the festival? A. Students mainly served as observers in the festival. There were relatively few who attended and showed great interest in the events that were held. Q. What was the rate of stu- dent motivation by the faculty? A. We can think of only one instance in which there was a call by a faculty member to the student body for participation. Q. Has the festival accom- plished anything on SSC's campus? If so, bow and what ac- tions have proven this? A. Since attendance was low. we can only say that the student body was awakened to the fact that BACC had emerged as an activitist group. The short range plans of the festival have become long range plans. CAMPUS SEX- an Important cVeu) tReport A definitive report on a two- year study by a major uni- versity. Vance Packard de- scribes the revolution in sex attitudes and behavior of college students here and abroad. Just how far stu- dents have come and will go with sex.

Pulaski Na- tional Historical Monument. Nev- els. who was at first accepted in maintenance capacity, refused this position and was later interviewed and tested for his present position as park guide. Possessing superb speaking abil- ities, Nevels was first interested in working at the Fort through a career week representative from Pulaski. During the summer, the SSC student works as a full time employee, but be works only dur- ing the week-ends during the school term. In an interview with Nevels, he stated, "My basic job is conduct- ing tours of the Fort for groups studying history and on weekend tours for the general public." Aside from this he has little paper work and at evenings, he secures the Fort and sometimes assists in souvenir sales. Nevels at first found his job quite challenging, and quite inter- esting at present. As far as the information concerning the tour, the basic material is found in the Fort's library. In reaction to visitor attitudes, he commented, "Aside from the surprise of seeing a Negro in uni- form, by mostly local or Southern- ers, I am received quite well." In reference to response to him, Nev- els related that since working at the Fort, several letters had been received expressing the visitors* appreciation for his presentation while conducting tours. Nevels ,a member of the Col- lege's dramatics organization, "Players by the Sea," is also a member of the Delta Eta Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity. Guess Who Came to Dinner?
