VOLUME 95 AUBURN. UNIVERSITY AUBURN, ALABAMA THURSDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1967 10 PAGES NUMBER 3
Optional ROTC, Reduced P.E. Proposed
Ed. Note: This is the first of a series of Plainsman
articles dealing with the recommendations set forth by
the Project '67 committees.
By JOE LEHMAN
News Editor
Reduction of p h y s i c a l education requirements and
elimination of mandatory military training have been recommended
here.
These controversial proposals were made following an
eight-month study of Auburn curricula that probed deeply
into the course offerings of the University's ten schools.
This study is a subpart of Project '67, an intensive
analysis of Auburn's academic program, and was made
by the Liberal Education Committee, one of eight committees
waking on Project '67.
Other recommendations concerning the freshman or
"foundation year" are: incorporation of foreign language
requirements, acceleration of math requirements, and
alteration of the present English, history, and natural
sciences requirements.
Minority statements opposing the majority recommendations
on military training and foreign language requirements
were included in the Project '67 report. In addition,
due to the present world situation, the committee
suggests that the elimination of required ROTC be postponed
until a study can be made by a special committee.
After listening to the reports and opinions of numerous
faculty members and students and compiling all available
facts, the committee recommended that "a common pattern
of basic studies be required of all Auburn undergraduates"
in order to provide a "basic liberal education."
The objective of such a "liberal education" curricula
would be to produce Auburn graduates that are "well-rounded
or complete" individuals.
•The responsibility for implementing Project '67 proposals
rests with President Harry M. Philpott. President
Philpott emphasized that he will take no action until
studying a final overall report to be presented by the
academic staff, headed by Dr. Wilford S. Bailey, Vice
President for Academic Affairs. The academic staff report
will be based on recommendations from such committees
as the Liberal Education Committee.
PHYSICAL EDUCATION RECOMMENDATIONS
Physical education requirements would be cut from
six quarters to three quarters if the committee's recommendations
are implemented. In addition, the report suggests
that "students be allowed to select the courses
and that only grades of 'Pass' or 'Fail' be assigned."
Quality points would not be given for these grades.
Furthermore, the report s u g g e s t s that the present
health science requirement for freshman women be made
an optional course.
The Department of Health, Physical Education, and
Recreation has published a report explaining its position
on the recommendations made by the Liberal Education
Committee.
The Physical Education report outlines the "need"
for a good program of physical education. The assertions
of the report are based on a survey of alumni opinion,
the status of physical education in other colleges and
universities, and an analysis of the effects of changing
the requirements from six quarters to three quarters.
The survey of alumni opinion indicated that "87% of
the alumni polled believed that physical education should
be required in the general education program" and that
"89% of the alumni polled expressed the desire that their
children take physical education at the college level."
The most recent survey concerning the status of physical
education in colleges and universities, conducted by
Hofstra University in the spring of 1967, says that a
two-year requirement is predominant. Specifically, it
reports that among schools with an enrollment of 6,000

Senate Decries
New Ceremony
By BOB PAYNE and MARGARET HESTER
If the state flag and the Confederate battle flag are
raised and the state song and "Dixie" are played at
Auburn's next home football game, it will be against
the wishes of the Student Senate.
By a vote of 12-3 at its Monday night meeting the
Senate passed a resolution
urging that these activities
be omitted from the pre-game
ceremonies.
The flags were flown and
the songs played at Auburn's
first home game with Chattanooga
as the result of a State
Legislature resolution passed
recently. The resolution requested
that "all state-supported
institutions of higher
learning flythe Alabama state
flag and the Confederate battle
flag alongside the American
flag and play "Alabama" and
"Dixie" at each home football
game."
The text of the resolution
passed by the Student Senate
is:
WHEREAS, the State Legislature,
in Resolution 49,
has requested that all state-supported
institutions of
higher learning fly the Alabama
State Flag and the Confederate
Battle Flag alongside
the American Flag and
play "Alabama" and "Dixie"
at each home football game;
P/ogge Quits
Richard Plagge, Auburn's
starting tailback
the first two games, has
quit football.
Plagge, a senior, has
not practiced since Coach
Ralph Jordan announced
that Dwight Hurston had
been promoted to the number
one tailback spot
Monday.
Hurston, Larry Ellis,
just off the injury list,
and Mike Currier will
compete for Plagge*s vacated
position.
and
WHEREAS, neither the administration,
faculty, nor students
of Auburn University
requested this action; and
WHEREAS, we feel that
the position of Alabamaians
on local self-government,
private property rights, and
individual liberty and freedom
is not demonstrated nor enhanced
by the display of the
Alabama flag and the Confederate
Battle Flag and the
playing of "Alabama" and
"Dixie"; and
WHEREAS, we feel that the
best interest of Alabama is
served by an active participation
in national affairs rather
than in the promotion of sectionalism
as evidenced in
these activities:
NOW THEREFORE BE IT
RESOLVED by the Senate of
Auburn University, that it is
the wish of the Senate of Auburn
University, that the
raising of the Alabama Flag
and the Confederate Battle
Flag accompanied by the
playing of the songs "Alabama"
and "Dixie" be omitted
from pre-football game
festivities; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED
that a copy of this
Resolution be sent to Her
Excellency Lurleen B. Wallace,
Governor of Alabama;
the Honorable Albert Brewer,
President of the Alabama
Senate; the Honorable Rankin
Fite, Speaker of the Alabama
House of Representatives; and
Dr. Harry M. Philpott, President
of Auburn University.
In other senate action, six
seniors were appointed to

Visiting Consultants Find
Draughon Library Deficient
By DENNIS BALCH
A 500,000 volume deficiency
in the Draughon
Library has been reported
by visiting library consultants
to Dr. W. S. Bailey,
vice president of academic
affairs. The evaluation is
one of a series of moves
designed to improve the
library system here.
The consultant team,
consisting of directors of
libraries from three major
universities, advises that the
l i b r a ry should have not
less than one million volumes
of high quality material.
According to their estimate.
$500,000 in annual legislative
support is needed to properly
maintain the caliber library
that Auburn's needs demand.

exhibit at the Alabama State Fair, which opened in Birmingham last Friday and will run
through Saturday. War Eagle Girls and members of the Student Government staffed the
exhibit this week. (Photo by Jim Selman)
Appropriations for 1966-67
were $151,000.
The library's collections,
the report states, "should include
everything needed to
provide comprehensive coverage
required to support all
programs listed in the University
bulletins and those approved
too late for inclusion
in these publications." With
this as a basis for judgement,
the team made its report.
HALF ADEQUATE
Auburn holdings were found
to be only half adequate, although
Dr. Clyde Cantrell, director
of the library, termed
the library, "adequate for
now." Statistics of Southern
Colleges and University Libraries
for 1965-66 ranked Auburn
28th out of 45 southern
universities.
Some strong points, however,
were noted as a result
of the evaluation. The consultant
team noted that the flexible
, well-designed building
and the subject division of the
material lent themselves to
development of the type library
Auburn should have.
CIRCULATION LOW
Circulation, it was
found, was unusually low for
a university the size of Auburn.
It was suggested that
longer hours of opening might
make the library more serviceable
to students, especially
on weekends and before
finals.
Conducting the study were
Dr. Ralph McCoy of Southern
Illinois University, Dr. Ralph
Parker of the U n i v e r s i ty of
Missouri, and Dr. Robert Orr
of the University of Iowa.
A study of the evaluations
is now being made by administration
and library officials.
Glom To Name Six Beauties

beauty section.
"Little Anthony and the
Imperials are presently being
booked on more campuses than
any other popular group, and
will be a highlight for one of
the top events of the year at
Auburn," said David Smith,
editor of the Glom.
"Only 2,000 seats will be
available on a first request
basis, and everyone interested
should buy tickets promptly
as they go on sale," said
Smith.

Traffic Violations Double

"Traffic violations have
doubled since the beginning
of fall quarter with 50 percent
of all violations made by students,"
said City Police

represents the increased number
of automobiles driven by
students with the beginning
of each term.
"We are averaging 45 accidents

are caused by speeding,"
Hammock reported. The city's

Operators of motor scooters
are reminded that it is an offense
to operate such vehicles
without a safety helmet.
Hammock denied that his
department was in the process
of a "traffic crackdown," but
wanted to^emphasize that all
traffic laws would be stringently
enforced.

Interest Centers On Project '67 Report, Senate Resolution
Project '67. . .
or more students, two or more
years were required in a majority
of the school.
The main effect of a change
from six to three quarters of
physical education, according
to the P.E. department's
report, would be "to reduce
the student's opportunity to
explore his interests in recre-ational
sports and to deprive
him of the opportunity to develop
a high level of proficiency'
and knowledge in a
particular sport."
MILITARY TRAINING
The Liberal Education
Committee majority report
says that the present required
program of two years of basic
military training should in the
future be made an optional
course for male undergraduates.
However, the minority
report supports the existing
military program for the present.
"Since the Army ROTC department
has not yet received
a copy of the Project '67 report,"
said Col. Robert B.
Marshall, professor of military
science, "we have not
formulated any formal defense

for our present program."
FOREIGN LANGUAGES
The foreign language recommendations
were the subject
of "the Committee's
most extensive discussions,"
A minority dissenting report
was published concerning
these reccomendations also.
The majority report suggests
that a year's work in a
foreign language be required
for all freshmen. One year
would not be "sufficient preparation
for any scholarly or
practical use of the language,"
but would be "the only means
by which many students could
decide whether further work
in this area appeals to them."
However, due to a "lack
of staff" in the foreign language
department, the majority
report alternately recommends
that this "requirement be
assimilated into the curricula
of as many schools as present
resources in foreign language
will allow." It further urges
that this requirement be established
should the foreign
language department expand.
A minority of committee
members disagreed with the
recommended foreign language
program suggesting that a
student cannot acquire "sufficient
competence" in a
foreign language within a
year, and that the value of
foreign language study does
not override the necessity
of professional specialization
in certain curriculums and
that the Engineering Council
for Professional Development
does not recognize a
year's study in foreign language
as a humanities requirement
for accreditation.
MATHEMATICS
Additional proposals would
d i s c o n t i n u e the lower-division
mathematics sequences,
for example: 121-122,
280-281. Instead, a slightly
modified MH 160-161 sequence
would be required of
all students.

This math sequence would
carry the student from algebra
and trigonometry to fundamentals
of analytic geometry
and the first of calculus. The
committee recommends such
an upgrading of the level of
mathematics instruction because
of almost 2,000 freshmen
admitted to Auburn last
fall, only 167 did not have at
least three years of high
school mathematics and were
therefore unprepared for more
for more advanced study.
HUMANITIES
The existing two five-hour
sequence in freshman English
would be altered to three
three-hour courses by the proposals.
Extension of freshman
English instruction over
the academic year should "enhance
the development of the
student's ability to analyze
meaning and compose his
ideas in effective written
discourse," the committee
said.
Further, a sequence of three
three-hour courses would replace
the courses in American
History now required at the
freshman level in many curricula.
Such a course of study,
said the committee, would
allow the student to "see the
history of America in a wrier
perspective."
NATURAL SCIENCES
Three options, one in biological
science and two in
physical science would be
available under the proposed
innovations of the committee
on natural sciences. The biological
science sequence
would consist of a recently
developed course "Principles
of Biology" (five credit
hours) to be followed by five
hours of applied work in either
Botanyor Zoology. Thephysi-cal
science sequence would
consist of ten credit hours
in either Chemistry or Physics.

Fantasticks."
This play, the longest-running
musical in theatre history,
will be under the direction
of Leo A. Comeau, newly appointed
faculty member. "The
Fantasticks" will run for a
week in the Players Theatre,

for the s e a s o n,
Samuel Beckett's "Waiting for
Godot" will begin Nov. 27
directed by Dr. Kenneth Campbell,
the new head of the
LITTLE MAN ON CAMPUS
drama department. "Waiting
for Godot," termed one of the
earliest of the absurd plays,
is a definite departure from
the normal line of University
productions.
Scheduled for early in 1968
are "The Red Shoes," pre-miering
Jan. 8 and'^lladin,"
which opens Feb. 26. These
two children's shows will tour
the schools of the area.
A French hypocrisy, Mol-iere's
"Tartuffe," is to be
presented Feb. 5. This comedy
will be directed by Ben Holland.
To round out the season an
O'Neill drama and a Greek
farce, "The F r o g s , " are
slated for April and May.
All Players' productions
are free to students and available
at nominal cost to the
community and faculty. Anyone
wishing to work on a production
as an actor or a technician
should contact the
drama department. Auditions
will be announced. ,

EUTNUN COLM-DELTiWISION 70
WAR EAGLE
By ROY SUMMERFORD
Exchange Editor
High rents and slumlike conditions around the University
of Pittsburgh have prompted the Pitt News, student newspaper
at Pittsburgh, to charge area landlords with conspiracy
against the students.
Charging that landlords have taken advantage of a student
housing shortage to raise rents excessively, the Pitt
News has broadcast a plea for more effective student organization
to protest living conditions off-campus.
Many of the landlords have, according to the News, apparently
been operating a rent extortion racket. The student
must either accept excessive rents or move miles from
the University.
Rents range up to $160 a month for two rooms and a
bath. In one place noted for low rents, the landlord charged
$55 a month for a basement apartment that was little more
than a bed stuck in the basement. There were no windows,
yet the basement filled with water after every rain. This
particular apartment was condemned when the student called
in building inspectors after the landlord threatened to
raise the rent.
STUDENT DEFENSELESS
The Pitt News sees the individual student as defenseless
against intimidation of landlords and suggests that
students form some sort of organization to oppose the landlords.
The organization could act not only as a bargaining
agent for apartments, but also for parking facilities and
store discounts..
At present the only power strong enough to oppose the
landlords is the University administration, but it has been
accused of ignoring the situation. It has thus far remained
silent on the matter, but the News expressed hope that the
administration would eventually bring pressure to bear on
the landlords.
REVERSE AT TEXAS TECH
Unlike Pitt, Texas Tech has no worries about student
off-campus housing. Its policy is simple-students are forbidden
to live off-campus. The campus housing policy has
for years required that all single students without "valid"
excuses live in University owned housing as long as it is
available.
A resolution allowing both men and women students over
21 to live off-campus was rescinded during the summer. No
reason was given for this action.
Students at the University of North Carolina may have
the ultimate solution to off-campus housing problems. A
small group of students there are trying to enroll UNC in
a student exchange program with Latin American Universities.
One by-prociupt pf the exchange is that the student
could then leave his landlord a thousand miles behind.

General Electric is made up of a lot more than just
engineers — because it takes a lot more than engineers
to tackle the problems we deal with. Like
helping to unsnarl traffic jams in our cities, fighting
air pollution or finding new ways to provide
power for underdeveloped nations. It takes sociologists,
meteorologists, astronomers, writers—in
fact, it takes people with just about every kind of
training. But, more than any of this, it takes people
with nerve, gumption, intellectual curiosity-people
who care about what happens to the world.
So it's not only your major we're interested in.
It's you. Why not see our interviewer when he
comes to campus and find out whether you're the

Commending The Senate
We commend the student senate for
a vigorous assertion of opposition to
the revised pre-game ceremony as prescribed
by the State Legislature.
Choosing to act-however limited
their power may actually be-rather
than to sit quietly, distinguishes this
group in the recent history of Auburn
student government.
Too often, student government here
has interpreted a lack of direct power
over state affairs as a release from
an obligation to exert informed influence
whenever possible.
The influence of representatives of
the largest student body in the state
is not negligible, and is certain to
grow with vigorous, responsible, and
concerned senate action as evidenced
Monday.
If we interpret the mood correctly,
the 19C8 Senate will serve Auburn
well.
Music, Fun And Beautiful Girls
Little Anthony and his Imperials
will bring one of the top sounds in
popular entertainment to the Student
Activities Building next Thursday for
the ODK-Glom Beauty Ball.
Omicron Delta Kappa men's leadership
honarary is sponsoring the entertainment
and will collect any profits
which will be applied toward financing
ODK service on the campus.
And, of course, the Glomerata will
pick six of Auburn's nicest for the
1968 beauty section.
The entertainment is fine, the cause
is worthy, and the g i r l s are, as
always, beautiful.
The men of ODK and Squires and
the War Eagle girls will have tickets.
Do yourself and Auburn a favor.
Don't miss it.
We're For The Red Sox
Boston, Mass. is an excited town.
Probably not since Paul Revere
made his famous ride has the old city
experienced the excitement that the
American League Pennant brought to
•town.
Red Sox fans had been waiting 21
years for a flag to fly over Fenway
Park, and even longer for the World
Championship banner.
In 1946, St. Louis won the series
4-3. Maybe 1967 will be the year of
the Red Sox.
We hope so.
Auburn At The Crossroads
We hope that, at last, this will be
the year in which Auburn makes more
than negligible progress.
The problems are nightmarish, and
there are reasons for despair.
The evaluation of Draughon Library
completed last July by three mid-western
consultants is of the latter category.
According to the consultants, the
library is deficient in most categories.
We have half enough books and we
spend one-third of the money we
should for new volumes each year.
And the library directors thought
the library collection of books adequate.
Further, the evaluation has been in
the hands of administrators since
July 20-two months-and no official
action has been taken.
Another reason for doubt is the
apparent difficulty the university has
with simple administrative tasks. Administrators
here have trouble with a
familiar process like registration.
Worse still, the university is painfully
poor, and the funds are controlled
by an uncooperative administration in
Montgomery. Prospects for a brighter
financial future are bleak.
Yet, with all these problems there
are reasons for hope.
Not the least of these is an administration
which is determined to attack
the problems boldly. Although progress
on the library situation is slow
and as yet unofficial. Project '67 is
out, is being discussed, and will, at
l e a s t p a r t i a l l y , be implemented-reportedly
in the fall of 1968.:
In addition, registration in the fall
of 1968 will not be a repeat of this
fall's fiasco. The order from very high
up is that whatever must be done
will be done to have a good registration
next year.
In short, Auburn stands at the crossroads
of the first real and comprehensive
self analysis.
And we can hope that the right turns
can and will be made.
But we have hoped before.
Introspection:
A Generation's Bane
avr***^ By Brute Hichols
f^L^L-U We are perhaps the most introspective
.^f^^Jgeneration that has ever reached maturity.
This penchant for self-analysis extends from the most
way-out hippie to the most serious student to the most devil-may-
care among us.
And the national magazines feature the self-analytical
efforts of our best and our
worst almost continuously.
This quirk in our age-group
can be blamed largely on a
generation of parents immediately
after the World War who
said they didn't know what
to do with their children.
So they sought the experts'
help, and the tools of analytic
science were mobilized
on a massive scale for the
first time in American history
for the purpose of analyzing,
evaluating, and testing young
people.
And we've been probed and
recorded emotionally, /mentally,
and physically ever
since so the experts could
profile an average youth.
The analysts have turned
out a volume of pulp which
tells us who we are, how we
are weak, how we are strong,
and how we compare with all
our friends. And they haven't
left out the most private detail.
If we want to know who we
a parent. We find a book
which tells us. And we believe
these writers when
they say our generation is
the smartest, most sophisticated,
most well-balanced
that has ever come along.
And we think about our superiority,
or how we can attain
that superiority, a large
portion of the time.
Indeed, as a group, we
have taken to rejecting the
"honky" world entirely, as
the hippies do, to find our
way through life on "new
ideas" of our own which
really are not so new to
older generations.
So we build idea after
idea to live by and too often
they are all false or impractical,
because we have eliminated
the hard reckoning
of experience which is not
available at cut rates like
marijuana or LSD.
And we won't listen to the
old man who wants desperately
to help us. Characteristically,
we think he needs.
are, these days, we don't ask our help.

It's For Real!
What Now?
By David Housel
In dorms, fraternity houses, apartments,
and in homes, it is a peaceful fall night.
Auburn is quiet,
Most students are relaxing after the first full week of
classes. Many are watching television's Saturday Night
Movie.
The movie .suddenly stops.
"We interrupt this program
to bring you a special news
bulletin from Washington.
The President has just announced
that the country is
under attack by nuclear rockets.
This is not a test. We
repeat-this is not a test.
We are under attack. Turn to
your nearest civil defense
radio station and listen for
instructions."
What would happen in Auburn
if that announcement
came over the television or
radio?
Utter chaos, that's what.
Auburn University and Au-urn,
Ala. have a lousy record
on civil defense.
Fewer than 12 people attended
each of the last three
shelter management courses
offered in Auburn by the Lee
County Civil Defense program.
The national program requires
that 12 people, less
than one tenth of one percent
of the population of Auburn
and the University attend a
CD course before it is- accredited.
Four showed up at
the spring quarter school,
and eight attended the school
scheduled last Saturday.
Why the lack of participation?
Certainly not because the
public was not informed. Bill
Thornton, Lee County Civil
Defense director, had numerous
announcements in all of
the area news media for
weeks in advance of the
school.
The fault lies with the
students of Auburn University
and the people of Auburn,
Ala. We couldn't care
less about Civil Defense.
During the Berlin Crisis
in 1961 and again in the 1962
Cuban Crisis, people could
not learn enough about Civil
defense, but now hardly
anyone is concerned enough
to go to free training.
The problem is nationwide,
but it could not be
worse than it is in Auburn
and Auburn University.
A spot check of fraternities,
sororities, dorms, and
private apartments revealed
that not one of the more than
50 persons contacted knew
which fallout shelter to go to
in case of an attack.
Thornton has made up an
elaborate shelter complex
system to accommodate every
student, but apparently
the students don't care. We
still don't know where to go,
even though it has been printed
in many student publications.
If the bombs started falling,
most people would head
for the nearest shelter, creating
chaotic conditions. A
shelter with a 500 capacity
might be crammed with 1,000
people, while a 1,000 capacity
shelter might have only
100 people in it.
Thornton said that most
people have the mistaken
idea that there will be only
seconds to reach a shelter
after the alarm is sounded.
He said the time would
vary from seconds to a few
hours depending on how far
from the blast area the shelter
was.
Many students say, "If
we are attacked, I just want
to go ahead and die because
there would be nothing left
to come out to." But actions
speak louder than words, and
most people will probably
head for the foxhole when
the bullets start flying.
Thornton reported that fallout
shelters will not guarantee
that a person will live,
but it would guarantee a better
chance of survival.
Civil defense may be suffering
from the results of
"crying wolf" too often in
world crises* apathy has set;
in with the people, and civil
defense is losing the battle
to awaken the people to precautions
in case of an attack.
But, after all, who really
cares?
Nobody's going to attack
anyway, but if they do, I'll,
be in my corner of the Fun-chess
Hall fallout shelter
•where I'm supposed to be.

A Student's Guide
To Auburn Instructors
^ • j - m By id Gowedy
m M -m In our informative (if somewhat brief)
^m an ammau s t a v o n tne plains, it has become clear to
us that instructors are truly "different animals." Since Auburn
has an unusually large number of new students this year
due to transfers from junior colleges in addition to the usual
number of freshmen, we have compiled the following guide to
the Auburn Instructor. Although
space limits this effort
somewhat, we believe
that most Auburn instructors
can be classified into these
four groups:
Graduateus Instructorus
(Dampus Behind Earus): This
species is found in all levels
of Auburn classes, although,
they seem to thrive most in
courses numbered 200 and
below. As a rule, they have
not yet grown accustomed to
their new environment, and
this at times may be of benefit
to the student. ("This
class is scheduled for a 9 to
midnight lab on Fridays, but
I doubt if we'll meet it
more'n once or twice."), although
it can also be quite a
disadvantage ("I really don't
know whether I should give
y'all a beat tomorrow or not,
so I don't guess I will.").
Distinguishable characteristics:
lean and hungry look,
frayed collar, unshined Wee-juns.
Weakness: good looking
coeds who wear short skirts
and sit on the front row which
may affect ability to grade.
Knowledgeabullus Profes-sorus
(Callous Individualis-ticus):
a veteran of the teaching
profession, this species
may also be found in all
nooks and crannies of academic
life, although they
tend to be better preserved
in the dustier nooks and
crannies of 300 level courses
and above. Where the graduate
instructor may be easily
swayed by the wants of his
students, this species is able
to evaluate his classes ob-jectively-
from the point of
view that the subject is all-important.
For this reason,
he will not allow any cuts in
his HY 941 class. History of
Auburn, 1776-77. Outstanding
characteristics: 1955 vintage
double-breasted suit (often
the same one every day),
cluttered office, bulging
briefcase, thick glasses.
Weakness: unknown.
Instructorous What Readest
Notes (Boredomus Personi-fiedus):
Again, this species
may be found in all areas of
academic life. He has generally
completed some level
of postgraduate work, and
finds that his instructors in
his field of study were so
good that their notes would
be better than any lecture he
could possibly originate. In
fact, he often thinks that
they are so good that none of
them should be-or will be, if
he can help it-missed. General
characteristics: head
down stance, low voice,
monotone delivery, eyestrain.
Weakness: recurring inability
to explain himself: Other
c h a r a c t e r i s t i c s : steady
"zzzzzzz" coming from class
the instructor is "instructing."
I n s t r u c t o r u s Perfectus
(Wonderfulness personifie-dus):
This is the rarest species
of instructor on the Auburn
campus; many students
complete their stay on the
Plains without even seeing
one, and claim the species
is extinct. His attitude toward
the class is one which
defies definition, except that
it promotes a large following
among his students. Characteristics:
filled appointment
books, large student following
wherever he appears on
campus, friendly repoire with
students. Weakness: good
work. Other distinguishing
features: attitude that any
student who can keep up with
the work and carry a B average
or better may cut class;
understanding and acceptance
of all reasonable excuses.

Firm Policy
Necessary
For Viet Nam
By Lyn Scarbrough
The American public listened
attentively last weekend
to President Johnson as
he addressed the nation on
our undeclared war in Viet
Nam.
They listened for some
surprise-word of lasting victory,
firm
peace moves,
or even op-t
i m i s t i c
hopes for a
quick end to
the conflict.
But there
were no surprises.
Boys are
still dying.
Costs are still rising. Planes
are still flying deadly missions
to the north and some
still fail to return.
The basic fact is still the
same. We continue to march
our boys through the jungles
in a seemingly endless war
against the odds.
More and more critics are
asking, "How long can we
drag out this war?"
The answer is increasingly
becoming-"No longer."
The Viet Nam war is being
fought impractically. We continue
to bomb bridges in the
north while avoiding the vital
shipping ports. We send out
soldiers into unfamiliar battle-torn
jungles while South Vietnamese
and allied forces
fight considerably less.
And what is worse, we continue
to pour billions of
dollars into questionable
social programs at home
while begging for more mdney
for the war.
The American fighting man
can bear none of the blame.
He has done an amazing job
against numerical odds,
strange terrain, homesickness,
and morale-busting civil disorder
at home.
It is time our government
leaders realize that if the
war is to ue won, it will take
an undivided effort. Those
who say we can indefinitely
spend multi-billions on the
war and yet not cut Great
Society spending are living
under a bubble in dreamland.
Absurd propositions which
waste money should be abandoned.
Such ideas as building
an impractical, uneconomical
barbed-wire fence
along the entire northern
border of South Viet Nam
should be scrapped.
We should give our total
support to the newly-elected
South Vietnamese government
and help it establish a
stable system which will be
able to suppress Communist
aggression.
Careful study of the entire
Viet Nam situation must be
made and if hard offensive
action is called for, it must
be taken. If it should prove
advisable to mine prime harbors
or bomb more strategic
targets, it should be done.
All steps, short of invasion
of North Viet Nam or Communist
China, which s^"'1.
prove necessary to end the
war honorably with the fewest
casualties should be taken.
If our leaders refuse to do
what is needed for victory,
we should save American
lives, bear the loss of world
respect, and pull out now.
But, if, as we say, we truly
are in Viet Nam to win, we
must get the job done soon.
This must be the case.
Utters Policy
The Auburn Plainsman
welcomes all c r i t i c a l,
complimentary or informative
letters to the editor.
Letters of less than
250 words have a better

'A Hon And A Woman'
Campus Critic
By Hlike Bufkin
Claude Lelouch (writer-director-
photographer of "A
Man and A Woman") is obviously
a multi-talented man.
Unfortunately director-writer
Lelouch is not nearly so
talented as photographer
Lelouch. Consequently, pure
luck must receive at least
some of the credit for the
critical s u c c e s s of "Un
Homme et Une Femme," winner
of the grand prize at the
1966 Cannes Film Festival
and the Academy Award for
best foreign film of 1966.
It is as a writer that
Lelouch is least talented, or
rather perhaps, untalented.
In what was obviously meant
to be a simple love story, he
has four of the most unlikely
characters i m a g i n a b l e : a
a movie stuntman married to
a script girl, and a racing
driver married to a blonde
bombshell who commits suicide
over anguish at her husband's
injury in a race.
While it is conceivable that
the couples might have married,
the grotesque death of
the stuntman and the blonde,
the resultant necessity of the
widowed for sending their
children to the same boarding
school 600 miles from home
(a distance they both travel
weekly to visit their children)
and the ultimate meeting of
the two pitiable people is
stretching reality a bit much.
Add to this a heavy dose
of sentimentality, an overly
overt symbolism, sketchy development
of the leading characters,
and generally poor
handling of the technical dialogue
on both film and motor
racing, and one begins to
question seriously the judgement
of the critics.
As a director Lelouch is
much better, but still not
prize-winning. His imagination
and sensitivity are excellent,
but he seems unable
to d i s c r i m i n a t e between
Lelouch at his best and
Lelouch at his worst. Consequently
a little of the worst
has slipped in. Rally cars
sliding over icy mountain
roads contrasted with camels
striding over deserts makes a
marvelous scene; but a group
of men making inane comments
about lap times and R.P.M.
while an unseen formula racing
car whizzes by is a bad
scene indeed. Fortunately
the bad scenes are few, but
they do raise serious doubts.
As a photographer Lelouch
is superb-coupled with his
imaginative d i r e c t i n g the
photography is what saves
the film, but only with luck.
Using the expressive faces
of his actors and minimizing
dialogue, Lelouch has been
able to concentrate on the
visual effect of the film rather
than the intellectual appreciation
of the action, and in so
doing he has brought the full
effect of his photography into
play. He shifts from full color
to sepia and blue tints to
black-and-white, reinforcing
the emotional impact of each
scene with the basic colors.
His selection and recording
of quietly beautiful scenes
is not a new technique, but
is certainly successful in
setting a tone for the viewers.
The photography makes the
film. From the first scene
the viewer is swept up by its
charm and beauty (and by the
same q u a l i t i e s of Anouk
Aimee) and simply does not
think to turn his attention to
the tenuous nature of the
film. Only on second viewing
does one become aware of
the weaknesses.
Yet even with its photog
r a p h i c virtues, Lelouch
should thank his fairy godmother
that he caught the
film world in a mood acceptable
to sentimentality. Usually
hard-hearted critics have
passed over this and several
other major faults. Perhaps
next time Lelouch should hire
a writer and make a complete
film, one which "A Man and
A Woman," though charming
and delightful, is not.
IE ITERS TO THE EDITOR 5-THE PLAINSMAN Thursday, October 5, 1967
Students Criticize Registration, Bufkin
Knight Calls Article
Senseless, Vicious'
Editor, the Plainsman:
Last summer, Mike Bufkin
wrote a senseless, vicious,
and irrational article concerning
the lack of interest in
academic freedom at Auburn.
I substantiate my description
of Mr. Bufkin's journalism by
referring to his allegations
that Auburn has only about
100 "true intellectuals."
My Meriam-Webster Collegiate
Dictionary defines intellect
as "the power or faculty
of knowing... the power of
reasoning, judgement, or comprehending
. . . " Are you, Mr.
Bufkin, denying the fact that
at Auburn the qualities synonymous
with this denotation are
prevalent? If so, you are indicating
a lack of judgement,
consequently, you cannot be
a "genuine intellectual."
Mr. Bufkin apparently failed
to realize that most Aubum
students chose Auburn University
because of what it is
and not its ability to make
them into something they are
not. Modern "intellectuals"
plead with college officials
for liberal administration policies
such that will transform
them into pseudos to overshadow
their malcontent and
inadequacies-psuedo-leaders,
pseudo-intellectuals, pseudo-scholars,
etc.
Auburn students study physics,
engineering, agriculture,
economics, etc. to suit their
aptitudes and in hopes of contributing
to our society materially
through these channels.
While Auburn students are
preparing themselves for improving
society, those "more
sophisticated" University of
California students (that Mr.
Bufkin spoke of) spend their
time protesting administration
policies at tuition-free institutions
of higher learning.
Let's thank God for those
Auburn students, who are denied
the privilege of receiving
Mike Bufkin's commendation,
for their faith in the
"practical world," their pride
in the American heritage, and
their determination to add
concrete contributions to a
society infested with social
critics.

3 AN
Registration Changes
Suggested By Harper
Editor, the Plainsman:
It has been said, many
times, that one's first impression
often can never be
erased. This is particularly
true whenever that first impression
is bad. I am presently
a senior here at Auburn and
have assisted the Registrar's
Office, as a member of the
Auburn Veterans Assn. (AVA),
in attempting to maintain
orderly, smooth running registration
since the fall quarter
of 1960.
To this end, I am sure that
Auburn has expended many
thousands of dollars and I
know that there have been
countless changes. I would
like to suggest, in all respect
to those who have contributed
their time and energies to the
alleviation of this confusion,
that this is only the outward
sympton of disease. I have
often observed that Auburn is
one of the largest industries
in Alabama, whose product
adds more to the economy of
Alabama and the Nation than
any other, yet the principles
of Business Management, Personnel
Management, Industrial
Management, and Quality Control
are not applied to this
following items:
1. The computer registration
slips and the bursar's fee
cards could well have been
mailed to every pre-registered
student along with his registration
instructions at little or
no increase in postage.
2. Load checking could have
been programmed into the
computer or could have been
done manually, well before
actual registration, thus eliminating
the bottle-neck at

Sports Miror
MARCHING UP AND DOWN
Throughout the first half of last Saturday's game in Knox-ville,
Auburn and Tennessee took turns marching up and
down Neyland Stadium.
During the second half Tennessee marched over Auburn.
A couple of Tigers were lucky to escape with their "skins"
which is exactly the way Tim Christian and Mike Shows
would have left the stadium had it not been for some Auburn
coaches offering clothing to the two Auburn receivers.
Christian and Shows were victims of some vandalistic
endeavors on the part of persons able to enter the Auburn
dressing room and remove Auburn blazers, trousers, watches
and rings.
On the field the action stimulated as much exitement as
was going on below the stadium.
Football was the game, offense the show-that is for the
first half. The Vols and Tigers put 27 points on the scoreboard
during the first 30 minutes. Thirteen belonged to
Auburn.
Scoring 13 points could have been dangerous for the
Auburn fans. When Loran Carter and Rat Riley accounted
for the Tiger scores, the spectators in the wood end zone
rose in unison to cheer.
With the fine end zone seats that were alloted to many
Auburn students, there was the possibility of the end zone
collapsing.
A LOUD CANNON
Behind the wooden end zone was the loudest cannon
I've ever heard. Every time Tennessee scored there was a
tremendous blast. On the first occasion that the Vols scored
the end zone spectators almost fainted when they turned
and noticed the cannon aimed right at their backs and stuffing
flying across the open area towards the stands.
Whenever there was a lull in the action, which was for
the entire second half for Auburn, a single engine plane
soared overhead bearing a Weaver-for-Mayor streamer on its
tail.
Prior to the game, a Tennessee walking horse stepped
around the field with such little effort that he looked as if
he were on wheels. He resembled Charlie Fulton running
the football.
The horse was _a reserve champion which I later found
out meant secondplace. Charlie Fulton is a reserve qiar-terback
for the Vols, but he and the horse looked like winners.
BRIGHT SPOTS
The Tigers had their bright spots. Two of the top performers
were sophomores Buddy McClinton and non-scholarship
John (Rat) Riley
McClinton had one interception and made three tackles
that prevented possible touchdowns. Riley accounted for
seven points with two field goals of over 40 yards and an
extra point.
Carter's passing in the first half was pinpoint and much
of the credit goes to the offensive line which gave him
plenty of time to throw.
Weak points were the rushing offense and rushing defense.
Kentucky quarterback Dickie Lyons is a runner in
the class of Fulton and if the Tiger defense doesn't improve
Lyons could make Cliff Hare Stadium an exciting
place this Saturday.
The feeling is that these things will improve and Auburn
will put the Kentucky game in the win column.
Reservations Necessary
For Tennis Matches
The Office of Student
Affairs announces a tennis
court reservation plan to
begin today. In view of the
increasing use made of the
university tennis courts, it
seems advisable to insure
that the maximum number of
students, faculty, and staff
have the opportunity to play,
therefore a tennis court reservation
plan will be initiated
for this purpose. The regulations
to be followed are
outlined:
1. Reservations:
a. All students, faculty,
and staff using the
tennis courts should
m?.ke thier reservations

(4470) or in person between
the hours of 1
p.m. and 6 p.m., Monday
through Friday.
b. Only one person need
make reservations for
use of a tennis court.
The name of the person
using the court
will be entered on the
reservation form.
c. A master reservation
form listing the names
and tennis courts reserved
for the day will
be posted at the tennis
courts at 3 p.m. daily.
d. If tennis courts have
not been reserved for
specific hours, anyone
may use them until
claimed as reserved or
unless others are waiting
to play. In the
event others are waiting
to play, please observe
a one and a half
(l'/2 hour) hour playing
time.

Can The Tigers Can 'Tucky?
By BILL BEEMER
Should the pattern of the last four years continue, Auburn will win this Saturday's
game with Kentucky. Since 1963 the home team has won this SEC clash. It will, however,
take more than precedent for the Tigers to regain winning form.
Despite their 0-2 record, the Kentucky club will be far from pushovers. Big Ten
representative Indiana
edged the Wildcats 12-10,
and Mississippi came out
with a 26-13 victory.
The Auburn-Kentucky series
has had its share of upsets
rhe last time the teams met
in Cliff Hare Stadium, the Wildcats
were unbeaten and ranked
fifth in the nation Auburn won
23-17.
On the other hand, the Auburn
squad had not lost in 30
straight home games when the
teams tangled in 1(J6L Kentucky

Tigers Drop Conference Clash
Auburn's Tigers stayed with the Tennessee Volunteers for one half of high-gear
offensive football in Knoxville, Tenn., last Saturday afternoon. But the Tiger attackers
floundered in the third period, and the Tennessee offense went into overdrive,
scoring two second half touchdowns and winning, 27-13.
Tennessee scored first, l a r d j ^ TimChristian. Carter

Tennessee wedged its
second TD in between Riley's
boots, with Warren running
the ball in, and the Vols led
at the break, 14-13.
Warren went out of the game
early in the third stanza, and
Fulton replaced himin a move
which, if anything, strengthened
the Orange a s s a u l t.
Fulton, Walter Chadwick and
Richard Pickens shredded the
Auburn defense, which was
operating in the 4-4 alignment
UCLA had used to thwart
the Vols two weeks before.
Chadwick waltzed in with
Tennessee's third counter,
and got the last score of the
contest with less than nine
minutes remaining, climaxing
an 82-yard drive.

By CLINT LENOIR
Talking with the father of a basketball star long distance
about what bis son is doing now is an experience
to remember, especially when he is very proud to tell
you.
The father is Robert Buisson, and the call was to New
Orleans, La. The son is Auburn's own Bobby Buisson,
who was last s e a s o n ' s basketball captain and star
guard.
Bobby is now on tour with the Gulf Oil Corporation's
all-star basketball te?im. According to
his father, "Bweetz" is having the time
of his life as the squad goes from
country to country in Europe and the
Near East playing the finest teams from
each country.
After his selection last spring, Bobby
was to report to the team's headquarters
in New York in the middle of July.
Because of his advanced Army ROTC
LeNoir commitment, he arrived a week late, for
practice. During the next week of practice, an injured
elbow caused Bobby to be sent on ahead to Sweden where

Three league clashes topped by the Alabama-Ole Miss

Vault, two of the nation's win-ningest
coaches, will pace the
sidelines as their teams meet

teams were surprised in their
openers, the Tide by FSU 37-

State 27-17. but came
back strong in their second
outings. Alabama, with the
pin-point passing of Ken Stabler,
should pull out all the
stops and smash the Rebels
on television by 13 points.
FLORIDA-LSU
Florida and LSU will tangle
in a conference game at
Gainesville. Southpaw Jackie
Eckdahl engineered three
Gator scoring drives in the
second half to defeat Mississippi
State last week as
LSU's sticky defense helped
the Tigers whip Texas A&M.
Bengla quarterback Nelson
Stokely seems to be well after
three seasons of injuries and
should lead LSU to a seven
point victory over Florida.
AUBURN-TUCKY
Kentucky comes to the
Loveliest Village after being
manhandled by Ole Miss. The
Wildcats have two somewhat
heralded quarterbacks, Terry
Beadles and Dicky Lyons,
but have yet to produce an impressive
show. Auburn must
regroup after a dissappoinr-ing

victory over Kentucky woulu
be a good start. Some changes
will be made and the Tigers
will defeat the Wildcats by 14
points.

Mississippi State travels to
Lubbock, Tex., to meet the
Red Raiders of Texas Tech.
Tech is the only unbeaten
team in the Southwest Conference
and has a good chance
to win the league championship

It will be a long season for
the Maroons who will be lucky
to win a game. State will be
at the mercy of Texas Tech,
who should win by at least 21
points.

Jim Hill and the Old Pro topped the pigskin picks
last week as each missed only one out of 10 games.
Muhlenberg and TJrsinus clashed to a 6-6 tie in one report
and a 17-6 win in another report, so we gave the
Mules the benefit of the doubt and went with the latter
report. With Ursinus being the only college we know of
with a tree in its end zone we feel that Muhlenberg deserved
a victory under any circumstances.
The Mules swing back into action this week against
PMC College.
Last week's guest picker Julie Archer, Miss Auburn,
finished with a 7-3 mark. Guest for this week is Neal
Davis, former Plainsman editor and now publisher and
editor of the Lee County Bulletin.

From what "Bweetz" writes his dad, that wasn't a
bad country to recover in, and the.girls are pretty as he
had always heard.
The team has been very successful on the goodwill
trip by not losing a single outing so far. They have had
scores as high as 139 and 146 and broke the previous
all-star scoring record of 184 by scoring 185 in one of
the clashes. All the players usually see action and end
up in double figures with Bobby even chalking up 30
points in one game.
Mr. Buisson said that the games had carried the team
to many countries such as Italy, Belgium, Norway, Sweden,
Finland, Spain, Turkey, Kuwait, and many others.
In an up and coming tournament in Halsingborg, Sweden,
Bobby will be playing with the Swedish team. He will
also play with them in six other games.
The Swedish team asked Bobby to stay in Sweden and
play for them for two years when he finishes the tour
with the Gulf Oil team. Uncle Sam may have something
to say about that. ^^

Surfin' Susan Goes Hawaiian
Ed. Note: Susan Foy spent her summer in Hawaii working
at a German restaurant. In the following article, she tells
of her experiences and impressions there.
By SUSAN FOY
"Aloha, haole wahine!"
That's the greeting given to coeds who visit the
islands of Hawaii during the summer months.
I was fortunate enough to be one of those "wahines"
for two and a half months this summer.
I lived with my sister, Mary Lou Foy, a resident of
Hawaii, in an apartment at the foot of majestic Diamond
Head, just a few minutes walk from Waikiki and its
famous beaches and beach culture.
My picture of romantic Hawaii was momentarily shattered
when I learned that Diamond Head is not so named
because of its unusual shape but because of the green
glass generated by volcanic action and that "Waikiki"
translated means "brackish water."
SURFER GIRL
The first question posed to returners from the islands
is "Did you surf?"
The answer? Of course! I tandem surfed (two on one
board).. .once.
Three days after I arrived on Oahu, I was initiated
into the world-renowned surfing society by a Japanese
boy named Alvan.
Alvan led me down the main drag of the Kuhio beach
and sat me down right in the middle of it all.
Alvan introduced me to a little Japanese man named
John. John's family in Japan is rich, so he just lives on
the beach and practices his hobby of tandem surfing. And
to him I was indeed a challenge.
SURFING ACTION
John took me out on the surf board several times to do
some tricks. We fell every time.
I was scared. I had never done this before. He told
me to relax and I fell in a limp puddle.
He told me to be stiff and I became petrified.
Finally he told me he. had never fallen off a surf
board with a girl under 110 pounds, and that he'd fallen
off with me three times.
That did it.
The next time we caught a wave, I found myself sailing
five feet above the water, swan-style toward the
shore, with strong and sure-footed John supporting me
from the surf board.
I'll never forget tha't feeling-like flying-but with the
brush of salty wind on my face and the sun warm on my
back, and the satisfaction in b e l i e v i n g that I had

achieved the impossible!
RENT MONEY
My vacation was not all fun and play, because two and
a half months is a long time to go without money to pay
the rent.
So I put on my flip flops, which is about as formal as
anyone gets at the beach, and tromped up and down the
main beach street in search of employment.
I ended up being a waitress at a German restaurant
called the Heidelberg.
The Heidelberg exemplifies the diversity of Waikiki
and its people.
It is owned by a South American millionaire and
managed by a comic German and a college dropout.
The head cook is Chinese and the second cook Portuguese.
A fraternity man washes the dishes and a hippie assembles
the sandwiches.
The waitresses are German, Austrian, English, and
American; and the barmaid, Latvian.
One of the American girls was President of Mortar
Board at Florida, and all waitresses were coeds looking
for rent, just like me.
As for the customers, they ranged from boisterous,
white-suited, low-tipping sailors to homesick Germans;
from Negroes to Chinese; from sophisticated islanders to
Deflowered matching tourists; and from hippies dressed
in 18th century styles to mini-skirted mini-girls.
ASSORTED PEOPLE
But if the customers were of odd variety, the natives
of Hawaii were even more assorted.
There are Hawaiians, who are actually Caucasian,
and round-faced Chinese; there are Japanese with tiny
bodies and slant eyes, and Koreans with strong hook
noses. The shades of skin in Hawaii melt gently from
one tone to another, varying from the blond silken-haired
Danes to kinky-haired, black-skinned Fijians,
with the gap between the two graciously bridged by
tan-skinned Orientals.
A charming part of present day Hawaii is the presence
of Oriental culture, mixed with the other cultures of the
world.
Whenever I got tired of eating peanut butter sandwiches,
some friends and I took off to Hee Hing's Chop
Suey down the street.
It was at Hee Hing's that I acquired a facility for chop
sticks and a craving for raw vegetables and fried rice.
But I never got used to hot mustard and soy sauce or
tea without sugar and lemon.
And about the only movies I saw in Hawaii were
Japanese movies. They were spoken in Japanese, filmed
in Japan, and centered around those old frontier fighters
of the East-the samuri.

The samuri were swordsmen who took their skill more
seriously than the gunslinger of the West. Their deadly
skill was an art. It was hard for me to take them seriously,
however, for they wore pony tails and waddled when they
walked.
DREAM LAND
Summing up my summer, I found several things to remember.
Hawaii is a continent, with mountains and beaches.
It is an eternity, with ancestral tradition and a look
toward the future. It is a paradox, with easy going beach
bums and rat racing executives.
But most of all, it is a dream... of a land of palm
trees and golden sunset, and balmy days of endless
summer and surf, way out in the middle of nowhere,
somewhere in the clouds, I think.

Peanut Flakes For Breakfast?
By LINDA GREENE
Imagine a menu of exotic foods like peanut flour cake,
muscadine juice punch, homemade potato chips, pastur-ized-
refrigerated peaches, peanut flakes (not corn flakes)
and peanut flour muffins.
These were only a few of the delicacies on display
and available for tasting at the food technology station
of the National Agricultural Science Week Open House
held here last week.
Featured last Thursday were guided tours of "exhibits
and demonstrations to better acquaint the public with
agricultural research being done at Auburn.
Visitors realized after the three-hour tour the vast
amount of research that is being done at Auburn in connection
with the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
EXHIBITS
There were eight scheduled stops on the tour. Ralph
Harris, professor in animal science, served as co-ordi-nator
for the tours.
The first station, concerning plant root development,
was highlighted by a time-lapse movie of actual plant
root growth through the soil.
The next stop was the food technology lab. All types
of experimentation were involved in this division. It was
here that visitors could sample the unusual foods. Hubert
Harris explained the various experiments being done in
horticulture science.
For example, the peanut flour produced here is high
in protein (40 per cent) as opposed to traditional white
flour (8 per cent). Use of peanut flour has great potential
for the undernourished people of the world. The flour
is relatively inexpensive to produce and could conceivably
provide protein for the diets of undernourished
adults and children. Further research is being done in
such areas as mechanization, physiology, biochemistry
and genetics.
Various professors at Auburn are experimenting with
plants such as peppers and tomatoes to make them more
disease-resistant. They are also developing new and
stronger varieties of crops.
The next visit consisted of a tour of growth chambers.
Here the guests saw specially designed chambers which,
through complete control of light, temperature, and humidity,
can simulate outside conditions. Thus, scientists,
can study basic plant processes.
In the mycotoxin and seed microbiology lab, studies
are being made on certain conditions which affect the
growth of molds. Certain molds toxic to animals and
human beings are under study. Dr. U.L. Diener explained
the various experiments and use of the equipment.
HEART RESEARCH
Heart research was the main concern of the next station
on the tour. Here basic cell physiology research
is being conducted. A living embryoic heart could be
seen beating in a test tube under the microscope.
In the ornamental horticulture greenhouses, projects.
concerning production and management of flowers and
ornamentals were exhibited. Studies of different mulches
are being conducted here. Visible differences couldbe
seen in the size and quality of the same variety of
flowers being grown in different mulches; for example,
peat, sawdust, pinestraw and processed garbage.
At the meats laboratory and livestock arena, animal
science research is conducted. At the meat lab, various
samples of meats prepared at the university couldbe
sampled. Tasty treats included smoked sausage, roast
beef, ham and salami.
In the final stop visitors were brought to the National
Tillage Machinery Laboratory. The lab is the only one
of its kind in the United States and is the largest in the
world. Eleven soil bins with unique machines and electronic
instrumentation are used to determine how full-size
tillage tools, tractor tires and crawler tracks change
soil conditions.
150 DELEGATES
Approximately 150 delegates from several southeastern
states attended the open house. It was sponsored jointly
by the USDA National Tillage Machinery Laboratory and
the Auburn University Agricultural Experiment Station
in a nationwide observance of Agricultural Science Week,
Sept. 24-30. __
