At 7:14 p.m. last Saturday, the

was quiet. .. almost deserted. A
few farmers from the nearby farmer's
market were quietly talking over cups
of coffee.
At 7:15 p.m. last Saturday, the
Davis Brothers Cafeteria was a scene
of wild jubilation, as the over 200

AU Board member,
former state legislator
dies in Columbus
Roberts H. Brown, member of the Au­burn
Board of Trustees, veteran state
legislator, Speaker of the House and
prominent attorney, died Tuesday in
the Columbus Medical Center.
Brown's death followed a three week
illness. He was 64 and had resided in
Lee County for most of his life.
Brown was elected to the Alabama
legislature from Lee County in the
1930's and served into the 40's. He
gained state-wide prominence as
Speaker of the House under the ad­ministration
of Governor Persons.
rampaging in, for a post-game meal
and impromptu celebration. Not far
behind was the football team, with the
coaches, Dean Foy, and President Phil-pott.
As the farmers stared in glassy-eyed
amazement, the large dining room
shook with the combined voices of hun­dreds
of Auburn supporters.
"Are you ready?"
"READY!!!"
"Count off!"
"ONE-TWO-THREE!!!"
"W-A-A-A-R EAGLE! HEY!!!"
One farmer dropped his spoon in
amazement, still unable to believe
what was happening before his eyes—a
full-fledged Auburn victory celebra­tion.
Just hours before, the Tigers had
beaten a stubborn Georgia team 35-20,
so now it was time for a celebration. The
lucky first band member through the
line was asked by the waiting busboy,
"How many in your party, sir?"
"Two hundred and twenty-three," he
joked, flinging a $5 bill at the cashier.
The football team was going through
the serving line now, each one decked
out in a crisp, blue AU blazer. And each
blazer was decorated with a sprig of
"The Hedge" of Georgia's Sanford Sta­dium.
By now, the cafeteria was somewhat
quieter, as the hungry fans put their
mouths to better use than talking. "I'm
glad this is better than breakfast," one
band member said, between mouth-fuls.
"You must have had the scrambled
eggs," came the reply from across the
table.
"They looked so bad I skipped break-

In his address to the joint session of
the Alabama State Legislature Mon­day
night Gov. George C. Wallace pro­posed
a $44 million budget for Auburn
for the next two-year fiscal period.
This amount is the same as was pro­posed
by Wallace last September. How­ever,
the bill died when the legislature
adjourned without acting on the
measure.
This proposal won speedy approval
from the administration-controlled
Ways and Means Committee Tuesday
and now goes to the floor of the house
for a vote.
Last spring, in the first special ses­sion
Auburn requested a budget of
some $78 million. But this amount was
whittled down during the special and
regular session.
Herb White, director of University
Relations, said that he was "reason­ably
confident" that the budget would
win approval from the legislature in its
present form.
However, White added that some­times
it was "pretty hard to tell" what
the legislature would do.
The amount for the first fiscal year is
less than for the second because Au­burn
borrowed some $500,000 from a
special state contingency fund in
September. This amount was
subtracted from the budget of the first
fiscal year.
Governor Wallace wrote into the ap­propriation
bills for education and the
general fund an automatic renewal
clause which would keep them in effect
if the legislature ever again failed to
pass new appropriations.
Because last year's budget did not
have that, provision Auburn has
been forced to run its operations since
the end of September on student fees
and loans.
Meeting in closed session, the Ways
and Means Committee also approved
the general fund budget and a bill that
would take some $12 million in sales
tax revenue from the education budget
and place it in mental health. This
proposal is expected to face a stiff fight
when it reaches the floor of the house.
Education forces, which bitterly op­pose
the bill, are confident that they
have enough votes to defeat the mea­sure
when it comes up for a vote on the
floor of the house.
ODK taps 25
for membership
SGA, ACLU promote voting
by providing transportation
The Student Government Associa­tion
in conjunction with the student
chapter of the American Civil Liber­ties
Union is planning to sponsor a
service winter quarter that will provide
free transportation to the Lee County
Courthouse for students who want to
register to vote locally.
SGA Pres. Jimmy Tucker said that
one purpose of the program was to
show that students want to vote in Lee
County.
He said that this demonstration
might help to influence Atty. Gen. Bill
Baxley in ruling favorably on the
student vote issue in Lee County as well
as other college communities across the
state.
Tucker said that the transportation
program presently being run was "too
low key." He added that the program
which is tentatively planned for Febru­ary
will be "a greatly accelerated
program."
Student participation in the present
program has been very small accord­ing
to Tucker.
John Saxon, chairman of ACLU,
said the purposes of the program will be
to "mobilize student interest and
support, to register those students who
are eligible to vote, and to hassle the
board of registrars so that they will
change their policy."
Saxon said that the policy currently
being followed was "arbitrary, reflect­ing
personal and community biases,
and probably will be changed legally."
He added that specifics of the

Aunt Betsy gives pointers on Thanksgiving
By Aunt Betsy Walker
Special to the Plainsman
Sitting out on the plains of the loveliest village eating
hamburgers is no way to spend a Thanksgiving day. Every
dainty Auburn coed and freckle-faced Auburn gent deserves
better.
Like hot aromatic turkey with exotic homemade bread
dressing, for example?
And tropical sweet potatoes garnished with bananas and
marshmallows.
And some traditional squash accented with bacon and
cheddar cheese.
How about a spicy cider punch that would tickle the
innards of Pocahontas?
And wow, chocolate fudge brownies with a very special
ingredient that guarantees a high old time.
Excited? Think it sounds like Mission Improbable? Well, if
the Pilgrims could do it in the woods, you can do it in the
kitchen.
As a matter of fact, a group of lazy, average Auburn
students accomplished such a task last year when they dis­covered
that going home for Thanksgiving was only a
blurred vision on the horizon. And, furthermore, the dinner
was actually edible, even good. Surprisingly enough, the
feast was considered a "hip" success from the first scramble
for food to the last contented belch.
Yes friends, you can do it too, if you shop wisely, cook cau­tiously
and mobilize the culinary arts of all your stranded
friends.
Let's start with the bird. If you are a chicken about choos­ing
turkeys, just ask your friendly meatman to fork over a
butter-ball self-basting turkey. This is probably the easiest
way because all turkeys are wrapped too tightly in heavy
duty cellophane for any meaningful picking, poking or
jabbing. Size is important. The usual amount needed is one
pound of turkey for each person.
The rest of the ingredients for your feast require no real
scrutiny when being chosen. It would be a good idea, how­ever,
to squeeze the squash and sweet potatoes to make sure
they are not rotten. Choose smaller squash and medium size
sweet potatoes for the most enjoyable flavor. Biggest is not
always best.
Preparation of the feast should begin the night before.
Round up all of your friends, no matter what condition they
are in, and have a happy dressing party.
The main ingredient for the dressing is whole wheat bread.
If you and your chums feel industrious, you can make your
own. A good recipe is found on the back of Pillsbury whole
wheat flour. Bread is a lot of fun to make and everything
loves to feel kneaded.
Toast a loaf of the bread and crumble it up in a big bowl.
Chop it up into small pieces; add two stalks of celery, one-half
of an onion, one small bell pepper, and one-half cup of
pecans. For extra spice add some mushrooms, ripe olives and
water chestnuts. Make sure these items are chopped too.
To moisten the mixture, add some turkey broth. This ne­cessity
is made by boiling the goodies that are found in the
inside of the turkey.
To make your dressing a real novelty, add about one cup of
uncooked rice. Mix all the ingredients together until evenly
distributed. Season with salt, pepper, poultry seasoning,
sage and rosemary. Take the bowl and put it in the refrigera­tor
and continue your party. Nothing else need be done until
Thanksgiving day.
Turkey must be cooked 25 minutes per pound. Be sure to
get up early enough to insure that you will eat before mid­night.
Obtain a large pan and line it with aluminum foil. Take the
bird out of the refrigerator and wash it carefully both in
and outside. Dry the bird and stuff the inside with the dr.
ing that was made earlier. Make sure the hole in the bac]
the bird is covered with the skin flap that fits over it.
don't want your bird to have an uncovered bottom
Draw the legs of the turkey as close together as you can

adopts holiday policy
"In order that the Univer­sity
may have effective class

that all classes will meet as
scheduled the last day before
holidays and the first day
after holidays as designated
by the University."
This new holiday at­tendance
policy was adopted
by the University in its
Senate meeting Thursday.
Several motions and am-mendments
were suggested
for the removal of all men­tion
of holiday attendence

The All-Campus Fund

money-raising campaign for
this year on Jan. 20 by spon­soring

The F.S.U. Circus, with
their variety of high wire ac­robatics,

is completely or­ganized
and performed by
students of Florida State.
All proceeds from this
circus will go to the Drive.
The All-Campus Fund

project programmed to raise
funds, to finance various
student, local and national
service organizations. Every
year, proceeds from this drive
are allocated to such organi­zations
as the Student Day
Care Center, the Auburn
Crisis Center, and various
student loan funds, as well as
to national organizations,
such as the American Heart
Association and the Ameri­can
Mental Health Associa­tion.
The Fund's purpose is
primarily that of a service for
the students, but it also con­tributes
to the Auburn com­munity
and to the nation.
tleton, dean of academic Af­fairs,
requested some sort of
policy be explicitly stated.
The former policy con­tained
a clause which re­quired
all classes be held
"without exception," but due
to the number of professors
with personal or University
business on these days, the
new policy was recom­mended.
Students may still receive a
five per cent reduction in
their final grade for non-at-tendence
under the new
policy, but classed may be
moved to a different time if
convenient with the profes­sor.
SGA Pres. Jimmy Tucker
said he believes there will be
a drop in attendence the day
before Thanksgiving holi­days,
but he believes all stu­dents,
"will welcome a
holiday attendence policy
consistent with the present
class attendence policy. And
as to this business about
taking five per cent off of a
students grade,"said Tucker,
"if students are penalized
then professors who do not
hold class should be given a
five per cent reduction in
their salaries."
Also discussed at the meet­ing
were residency require­ments
for transfer students.
The present requirement of
six quarters in residency for
graduation was changed to a
three-quarter requirement.

Senate defeats publicity proposal
At its Monday night meet­ing
the Student Senate de­feated
a proposal that would
publicize senate committee
meetings.
The resolution, which was
sponsored by Taylor Boyd,
off-campus senator, would
The Student Senate
voted Monday night not
to publicize the time and
place of its committee
meetings.
Lately the Senate Bud­get
and Finance Com­mittee
has come under at­tack
from radio station
WEGL for closing meet­ings
to WEGL reporters.
The Monday night
proposal to publicize was
probably the outgrowth
of this controversy.
Here's how the senate
voted:
Against publicizing
meetings: (17) Adams,
Athey, Batts, Cham-bliss,
Cook, Coppock,
Farmer, Haiston, Hor-ton,
Keen, Lauber, Les­ter,
Lofton, Milton, Phil­lips,
Ray, Sinback.
For publicizing meet­ings:
(7) Baker, Boyd,
Gwaltney, Hall, Lett,
Powell, Sittason.
Not voting: (6) Ander­son,
Arendall, Blake,
Johnson, Kate, Mc-
Clinton.
have required committee
chairman to publicize when
and where the committee
would meet and what topic
would be discussed.
The resolution would also
have allowed the committee
to close its meetings and to
move into executive session.
Boyd said that he spon­sored
the proposal because he
thought the students had a
right to know what the com­mittees
were doing since
most of the senate's work is
done there.
Boyd said that the reason
most of the senators voted
against it was because they
didn't think the students
should be allowed in all com­mittee
meetings.
The motion was defeated
by a vote of 17-7 with 6
senators abstaining.
In other business, the
senate passed a resolution
proposing that the grade of
FA (failure due to absences)
be dropped as a possible as­signed
grade. This resolution
was presented by Suzette
Lauber of the Student Wel­fare
Committee, who said
that since it is now against
school policy for absences in
themselves, to influence the
final grade, the FA grade is
not necessary.
Under present policies the
assignment of an FA is left
up to the discretion of each
teacher.
In other business, a resolu­tion
concerning student
voting in Lee County was
passed. The resolution
presented by Jim Lester, stu­dent
senator, requested the
State Attorney General's of­fice
to issue an opinion
recomending that students of
Auburn be allowed to reg­ister
and vote in Lee County,
or in any other county in Ala­bama
where they meet rea­sonable
requirements of res­idency,
irrespective of the
fact that they are students.
It was also requested that
the Attorney General's office
offer an opinion to set forth
requirements that should
meet the satisfaction of
boards of registrars as to
voter registration qualifica­tions.
The reasons given by
the senate for this action is
that the students of Auburn
were counted as residents of
Lee County in the 1970 cen­sus
and the requirement by
the Lee County Registrars of
land ownership is in
violation of the Voting
Rights Act of 1964.
In other business, the stu­dent
senate passed a resolu­tion
stating that it would be
in the best interest of Auburn
to provide regulation four-wall
handball facilities for
the physical education and
recreation of students and
faculty.
Harry Pierson, 3AR, was
nominated and accepted to
fill the position of vice-pres­ident
of the School of
Architecture and Fine Arts.
This position became vacant
when Tommy Phillips, the
former vice-president, was
named president of the
school.
Miriam Scarsbrook, 4GSY,
was named as the new di­rector
of the ESP program.
She will take over due to the
graduation of present di­rector,
Marion Cox, in
December.
SGA schedules
entertainment groups
Groups ranging from
Santana, to the Allman
Brothers, to Three Dog Night
have been tentatively
scheduled to appear at Au­burn
during winter and
spring quarters according to
Bill Bright, director of enter­tainment
for the SGA.
According to Bright, there
are three main factors which
determine which groups SGA
can bring to Auburn. First
among the three is the fact
that all groups can only be
booked for a time when they
will be on tour in this specific
area. It is not so much a ques­tion
of Auburn asking them
to come as it is of the stars
working Auburn in to fit their
planned schedule.
Secondly, all contracts
with .these groups or indi­viduals
can be broken up un­til
30 days before the date
agreed upon. Therefore, all
concerts are tentative until
this period begins.
And third, there is no ex­pense
fund to finance these
performances. The SGA must
be assured that enough
proceeds will be made from
ticket sales to pay for the cost
of sponsoring the group. In
order for the SGA to sponsor
hard rock groups or a newly-established
singer for
example, they must have
enough funds in reserve from
previous performances to
meet any expenses which the
ticket sales might not cover.
The tentative schedule for
the rest of the year is as fol­lows:
January 13, Santana;
in February, the Allman Bro­thers;
March 2, Chase; March
31, the Beach Boys; April 14,
Three Dog Night; and for
May 20 (A-day), the SGA is
trying to book Burt
Bacharach.
Other performers being
considered, such as Carole
King and James Taylor, for
various reasons, have not be­gun
bookings for 1972. Rod
Stewart will also be in this
area in March, but must be
assured of making $60,000.
Cliff Davenport will be entertaining
tonight from 8-10 p.m. at the
Tavern Restaurant
in Midway Plaza.
Tonight only, a special
discount on all meals served.

A Review
Capacity audience hears
soft sounds as Carpenters
perform variety of songs
By Jimmy Weldon
Plainsman Staff Writer
A capacity audience,
ranging from elementary
schoolers to Dean Cater,
filled Memorial Colesium
Tuesday night to listen to the
'soft, melodic" sounds of the
Carpenters.
Before the Carpenters ap­peared
on stage, the audience
was "warmed up" by a little-known
young singer named
Denny Brooks. He combined
folk and country and west­ern
techniques with a unique
vocal style that sounded like
a mixture of Cat Stevens and
Glen Campbell. Brooks' ver­sions
of "Everybody's Talk­ing
At Me" and "Both Sides
Now" made the captive
audience uncommonly recep­tive
to this 30 minutes of
"softening up."
The stage was set for the
main attraction, and the Car­penters
lived up to most ex­pectations
during their 60
minutes on stage. The "Car­penters"
was composed of
five back-up singers who
doubled on instruments like
alto-sax, oboe, flute, lead and
bass guitar, and, of course,
Karen on drums and Richard
i electric piano. The vocal
sound, characterized by full,
smooth chords, was pleasant
to the ear and typical of the
sound that has launched the
Carpenters to success.
After leading off with
'Help," the group went
through several other old
Beatle tunes, including the
Carpenter's million-seller,
"Ticket to Ride." Karen's
drums formed the nucleus
and direction of the
instrumentation. Karen left
the trap-set for some big num
bers such as "For All We
Know,""Superstar" and their
"favorite" song, "Someone
Like You." The more serious
songs were spiced by such
numbers as a spoof on 'old
tirm* music and a nice ins-job
on an old
Kern tune, "All the
Thirds You Are."

Perhaps the most enjoy­able
set of the evening was a
medley of Burt Bacharach
songs which included
"Knowing When to Leave,
"Make It Easy on Yourself,
"I'll Never Fall in Love
Again," and Dionne
Warwick 's first big hit,
"Walk on By."
Other big sellers for the
Carpenters that they per­formed
were "Rainy Days
and Mondays," "Close to
You" and finally, "We've
Only Just Begun."
In their encore, Karen and
Richard sang a Henry Man
cini song "Sometimes." The
first line of the song il­lustrates
just what the Car­penters
are all about. The
line, a gentle complaint
went, "Sometimes people
don't always reflect on the
good things." Karen and
Richard Carpenter do reflect
on the "good things" of life
ACLU sponsors outspoken draft critic
By Mary Anne Hall
Plainsman Staff Writer
David Harris, an outspo­ken
draft critic imprisoned
for his refusal to be inducted,
will speak on "War Resis­tance"
at 4 p.m. Tuesday,
Dec. 7, in the Student Activi­ties
Building.
Harris, who is sponsored
by the Auburn chapter of the
American Civil Liberties
Union, is the husband of folk
singer Joan Baez. He is a
former president of Stanford
University student body and
the founder of the West Coast
branch of the War Resis­tance
League.
Harris had been scheduled
to appear earlier this fall at
Auburn but he was forced to
cancel his speech when his
parole board ruled that he
had to return to California.
The War Resistance
League is a movement de­voted
to nurturing and en­couraging
draftees to return
their cards to their local
boards or the Attorney
General's Office in Washing­ton,
D .C.
Since his parole in 1970,
Harris has been speaking at
high schools and universi-.
ties.
"I'm a revolutionary. My
skill is that I can articulate
feelings a lot of people have
and present alternatives to
the American corporate
system," said Harris, who
sees his role as spreading the
message to the people.
Harris, who believes that a
man's life is his own and
nothing should violate that
life, sees America as the
symbol of the corporate mili­tary
state which is the enemy
throughout the world.
"We have to break up
society into more governable
segments than one nation of
200 million. It has to be much
smaller so democracy is func­tional.
We have to withdraw
power from the central go­vernment
and distribute it to
small groups."
An advocate of non-vio­lence,
Harris feels that "vio­lence
is a social phenomenon
we are trying to get rid of."
"No society, so far as I can

Speakers ranging from a
progressive admiral to a
women's lib advocate to an
author who writes books
about his famous attempts at
playing in professional
sports have been scheduled to
speak during winter and
spring quarters by the Hori­zons
Symposium.
This quarter, Horizons has
been in the process of finaliz­ing
plans for the rest of the
year. There will be a brochure
published later this year
which will tell the final plans.
There will also be an exhibi­tion
in the Haley Center ad­vertising
the speakers.
Beginning the program for
the winter quarter will be Ad­miral
Elmo Zumwalt. Ad­miral
Zumwalt is the chair­man
of the Joint Chiefs of
Staff. He has tried to relax
the rules on servicemen and
has emphasized a policy
which treats servicemen with
respect. Zumwalt has en­couraged
the recruitment of
blacks and has tried to
increase the Army's pay
scale. He will speak in the
Student Activities Building
at 8 p.m. on Jan. 13.
The next speaker will be
Sen. John Toomey from Cali­fornia.
Senator Toomey is a
leading new political figure
in national politics. He will
speak on Jan. 24.
Betty Friedan will speak in
the Student Activities Build­ing
on Feb. 10. Mrs. Friedan
has been called the "Mother
Superior" of Women's Li­beration.
She helped form the
National Organization of
Women (NOW). She has ad­vocated
free abortion, child
care centers, and equal op­portunity
for women in jobs
and education. But she is
perhaps most well known for
her book on the role of women
in today's society, "The
Femine Mystique." Asso-caited
Women Students will
co-sponsor Mrs. Friedan's
speech.
"An Amateur Among the
Pros" will be the topic of
George Plimpton's speech on
Feb. 24. Plimpton is known
for his books "Paper Lion,"
"Out of My League," and
"Bogey Man." In each of
these books Plimpton
attempts, as an amateur, pro­fessional
sports for journa­listic
purposes. Plimpton is a
graduate of Harvard, a
leading Democrat, and a
friend of the Kennedy family.
Dr. Donald Shriver and Dr.
William Peck will speak in
Haley Center 2370 at 4 p.m.
on March 6. Both Shriver and
Peck are doctors of theology
and will talk on existing and
future life styles.
Vernon Jordon Jr., will

Our Student Senate
John Sonifwo
Nothing can stop a devoted Auburn fan
Last spring, several students held a
demonstration in the halls of the
Union Building outside student go­vernment
offices to protest, among
other things, the campus advertising
law and the University discipline
system.
Many members of the Student
Senate, at that time, blamed the con­troversy
on the fact that most
students hadn't taken the time to find
out what was going on in the Student
Senate. The very problems students
were complaining about, senators
said, were being actively worked on
by several Senate committees.
Monday night that same Senate
overwhelmingly defeated a resolu­tion
which recommended that com­mittees
publicize the times and places
of their meetings and keep the
meetings open. The resolution would
have still allowed committees to meet
in closed or "executive" session if they
voted to do so.
The vote against open meetings is a
clear indication that most senators
have lost sight of the reason they were
elected and have become somewhat
politically paranoid about their jobs.
We can understand why some com­mittees,
such as Budget and Finance,
when dealing with touchy problems,
might feel hesitant to let anyone
listen in to their conversations. While
we think their meetings should be
completely in the open, we can a t least
understand their reservations.
But in most cases, senators would
be doing themselves a favor and
serving the students well to do every­thing
possible to publicize what they
are doing.
Without outside influences from in­terested
parties, the Senate will have
a difficult time making decisions that
affect the entire University commu­nity.
We hope the Senate will reconsider
the idea of opening the doors to its
committee meetings. And we hope the
students that elected these senators
will talk to their representatives and
let them know we're anxious to know
what they're doing.
The group left at about 7 a.m.
Saturday morning from the
Birmingham Airport. They
had to leave early because they
were to pick up a passenger in
Tuscaloosa before heading for
Athens.
Such a trip is not unusual
for the pilot and owner of the
plane. He has been an Auburn
fan all of his life and a pilot for
several years. Now, in his
early 50's, he flies to most of
the games when he's not away
on business trips.
By 8 a.m. they were taking
off from the Tuscaloosa air­port,
the pilot and five passen­gers
headed for what pro­mised
to be the biggest foot­ball
game any of them could re­member.
But then the problems
started. Before take-off from
Tuscaloosa, the pilot ne­glected
to turn on the alterna­tors
which generate electricity
for the plane.
After the landing gear was
raised with its electric motor
and the navigation instru­ments
and radios turned on,
the batteries had just about
had it.
The pilot by this time had no­ticed
the mistake and hastened
to turn on the alternators. But
it was too late. There was no
more electric power.
At this point, the aviator
made what he calls "my first
smart move all day." He made
the decision that he'd better try
to land at Birmingham and get
another plane before going on
to Athens.
With no radio to contact the
Birmingham tower, he had to
fly into the landing pattern to
let the tower know he was
there.
The controllers finally got
the message and began direct­ing
him with light signals.
With no electric power, the
landing gear would have to be
lowered manually with the
emergency lever. And that is
what the pilot attempted to do.
But when the lever was pulled
up and accidentally turned the
wrong way, it broke—leaving
our planeload of Auburn fans
above the Birmingham Air­port
with no landing gear.
Undaunted, the pilot de­cided
he would simply land the
plane on its belly without
wheels.
Fire trucks were stationed
along the runway as he came
in for what he described as a
"really smooth" landing. The
plane slid down the iirunway
and eventually veered off into
the grass where it came to a
halt.
The pilot and his passen­gers,
completely Unruffled
after the incident, jumped out
of the battered plane and into
another.
With an unprecedented
show of Auburn spirit, they im­mediately
took off again—this
time with the alternators
turned on, and made haste to
Athens.
When questioned by report­ers
from the "Birmingham
News " S aturdaynight.thepilot
said that he and all of the pas­sengers
were definitely
frightened throughout the
ordeal.
"We were all scared we
would miss the kickoff," he
said.
I know my father pretty well.
But if you had asked me about
him last week I probably
would have described him as a
worse Auburn fan and a better
pilot than he apparently really
is.
Cnimef Parsons
Students actively involved
flash
Being in the business of recording
and reporting news events, we are
well aware of the value of a
photograph.
For that reason, when popular
entertainment such as the Car­penters
comes to Auburn, we usually
have a photographer on the spot.
Tuesday night, for example, our
man was there—carefully taking
pictures without a flashbulb. He had
an official pass given by Coliseum
Manager Wayne Murphy.
There were also two photographers
from the Glomerata. One used no
flashbulbs and the other used them in
about three pictures as a flash was
necessary for color shots.
But in addition to these official
photographers, there were about 25
others who, complete with their
instamatic cameras and flash cubes,
more or less destroyed the show for
the audience sitting on the floor, the
official photographers and probably
Karen Carpenter herself.
Murphy said Wednesday that his
staff is now working on a system to
prevent such incidents in the future.
He said t h a t probably official ohoto-graphers
would be issued armbands
and no others would be allowed in
front of the stage.
"We wanted to stop those people
last night," Murphy said, there was
no way to stop them without dis­rupting
the show." Murphy said
that in addition to all of the problems
caused by the photographers and
their flashbulbs, most entertainers
have a clause in their contracts
calling for no flash pictures, so our
avid camera buffs could get the Uni­versity
in trouble.
We're glad to see Coach Murphy
working on a solution to the problem.
If he can't find any way to control
the situation though, we recommend
that performers at Auburn follow the
example of James Taylor who, in the
middle of his recent performance at
the University of Alabama, calmly
pulled out a watergun and blasted an
offender right in the eye.
Superman
With all the problems we
have to contend with in our
jumbled-up society, we
scarcely have time to breathe,
let alone to try to find some
workable answers. Yet, if
you'll take time to look around,
you'll find Auburn students
are more actively involved in
solving the problems of man's
existence than they have ever
been before.
Through student effort and
concern, the establishment of
a crisis center is no longer just
a sought after myth, but is a
working reality, responsive to
the needs of the entire com­munity.
With the help of the School of
Education and local Auburn
schools, Auburn students are
teaching children who never
learned to read, or even write
the simplest of words.
Organizations such as
Circle K are engaged in
projects with the under-priviledged
children of Lee
County, and the long forgot­ten
multitude of children
around the world are finding
new hope in being foster
children of various sororities
on campus.
A quest cdftoriof
Student dissatisfaction with
the war in Vietnam has been
shown with strikes for peace
and moratoriums, and the
right to voice opinions through
the 18-year-old vote has been
defended by the Auburn chap­ter
of the American Civil
Liberties Union in their at­tempt
for student registration
in Lee County.
Students have participated
in the quest for the preserva­tion
of the environment, and
have taken an interest in the
establishment of educational
programs such as the Extra­curricular
Studies Program
(ESP), and the Study Partners
Program.
Students have attempted to
help others, and they have at­tempted
to help themselves.
And yet, there are those who
try to condemn them because
once in a while a drink of beer
feels good, or the war in Indo­china
has slipped back a bit in
their minds and let the Au­burn-
Georgia or Auburn-Ala­bama
games hoard their
thoughts.
In an attempt to disprove the
age-old legend that most peo­ple
come to college to "raise a
little hell until something bet­ter
comes along. . .if it ever
does," students have left them­selves
open to criticism, by
simply being human.
As unpleasant as they are,
the war in Vietnam and
poverty are important issues
in everyone's minds—especial­ly
students—because they are
at the age to finally do some­thing
about the problems. And
maybe, once in a while, stu­dents
tend to forget the bad
things simply because it's
easier to think about some­thing
good. But to say they are
only preoccupied with the im­mediate
things around them is
a misconception.
At the Auburn-Alabama
game there will probably be at
least 15,000 Auburn students
either glued to a TV set or
raising a "little hell" out at
Legion Field, with their fore­most
thought being the out­come
of the game. But look at
any one of them and say to
yourself, "I wonder what good
he's done today," and chances
are he's done a lot and plans to
do more in the future. Why? Be­cause
he cares. * TODAY I
"I swear I've never seen anything
like him," muttered a worn-out look­ing
Georgia fan near the end of the
game Saturday.
"Pat Sullivan is the best dog-gone
quarterback that I've ever seen in col­lege
ranks," said Georgia Coach
Vince Dooley after the game.
And everyone else who saw the
game echoed the same sen­timents—
Pat Sullivan was absolutely
fantastic Saturday. He's been good all
year but, as usual, in the game where
the most was at stake, Sullivan put on
his best show.
Our congratulations goes out to a
fine football team and a great
coaching staff. Without a good all-around
team including receivers like
Terry Beasley and Dick Schmalz,
Pat Sullivan would have a hard time
playing the kind of football he's
famous for.
But our special congratulations
goes out to Sullivan himself. There is
no gimmick involved. Sullivan has
simply mastered the art of quarter-backing
so well t h a t it's almost unfair
to pit him against normal college foot­ball
players.

By Paul Crouch
Assistant to the Dean for
Pre-Engineering
Much publicity has been
given to the nation-wide
tightening of a broad spec­trum
of job markets. As busi­ness,
industry, government,
and teaching requirements
continued to decline from the
preceding year, many college
graduates across the nation
have come to understand all
too clearly why the 1970-71
year has been characterized
as, "not the year of the college
graduate."
In the midst of the admitted­ly
general shrinkage of jobs, it
would appear that the en­gineering
profession has borne
the brunt of much of the nega­tive
publicity pertaining to job
availability. Surely there are
good reasons why the spot­light
has been so focused on en­gineering—
reasons ranging
from the specific fact of the cut­back
of the mushroomed space
program to the general fact
that the engineering profes­sion
is so diversified in its ap­plication
and so ingrained in
the warp and woof of the total
American economy that its
profile presents a ready-made
symbol for "the state of the
nation." Even so.though,there
are good reasons why en­gineering
has been so spot­lighted,
one wonders if the
rather massive negative pub­licity
has not out-run the facts
pertaining to present and
future job openings for en­gineers.
It was this suspi­cion—
at least as it applies to
our Auburn University En­gineering
graduates—that led
to «n investigation of the
1970-71 graduates and the
current job market.
During the 1970-71 school
year there were a total of 460
engineering graduates at
Auburn University. Within
chis total figure there were 62
who did not go through the
University channels for assis­tance
in job placement, so no
information is available re­garding
these 62 individuals.
(Generally, such individuals
have made a vocational com­mitment
on their own or have
some definite plans such as
serving a military obligation).
Out of the total 1970-71 en­gineering
graduates for whom
information is available, only
one had no employment offers
or plans such as graduate
study or military service!
Specifically, 321 graduates
were employed, 41 entered or
continued full time graduate
study, two were still consider­ing
offers of employment at the
time this data was gathered, 32
planned to enter military
service, and one had other
specific plans.
Furthermore, while many, if
not most, vocational areas ex­perienced
decreasing starting
salaries, Auburn Engineering
graduates' (B.S. degree) sa­laries
were up about a modest
three per cent over the 1969-70
level. The average starting sa­lary
for an Auburn University
Engineering B.S. graduate
during the 1970-71 school year
was about $880 per month.
Certainly, the nation-wide
negative publicity concerning
engineering job openings does
not fit the facts pertaining to
our 1970-71 graduates. It is
true that, unlike four or five
years ago, each 1970-71 en­gineer
did not have five or six
job offers, yet according to a
recent press release by the Uni­versity
Placement Office, ". ..
the majority of engineers at
Auburn this past year were
able to find jobs compatible
with their engineering train­ing."
This same press release
also pointed out that,"... engi­neering
graduates ranked
among the highest percentile
of students placed from any
school on campus."
Another excellent indica­tion
of business and indus­try's
need for our engineers in
the immediate future is the
demand for engineering "co­ops."
The Auburn University
Co-operative Education
Program, which combines
actual work experience with
academic study, is now ac­tively
recruiting engineering
applicants. The Auburn Uni­versity
Co-op Program cur­rently
has a total of 740
students participating in the
work-study program; about 75
per cent of these, or 550, are en­gineering
students. The Co-op
Office informs us that they
could now place at least an ad­ditional
100 engineering
students! Since business and
industry look at the Co-op
Program from a recruitment
point of view, this demand for
students is an extremely posi­tive
indication of business and
industry's need for our engi­neering
graduates three, four
and five years hence.
In conlcusion it is noted that
engineering is, of course, allied
with technology in that engi­neers
use technology to ac­complish
a given pur­pose—
whether to build re­frigerators,
cars, bridges,
bombs or churches. Techno­logy
itself is "dumb" in the
sense that a hammer or saw or
any other tool is "dumb." It is
man—individuals, societies,
and governments—you and
me—who determine the use to
which technology is placed. As
America hammers out her des­tiny
in this latter third of the
twentieth century, new aims,
new purposes, new goals are
being defined by society.
Whether these goals be the im­proved
quality of our environ­ment—
air, water and
earth—or more efficient and
safer transportation, or more
durable housing, or the needed
defenses of our nation, or more
food for the hungry people of
the earth—through techno­logy
engineers will convert
ideas to reality; and engineers
will be "where the action is."
Keith Berfwell
Double low standards exist
After last week's Georgia
game, Toomer's corner was
again the scene of one of those
uninhibited, spontaneous pep
rallies which have so charac­terized
Saturday afternoons at
Auburn this fall.
For at least two hours after
the game, Auburn students,
many of them more than a
little intoxicated, displayed
their happiness at the team's
victory by painting every
available building and any car
whose owner would agree with
the game's score.
The celebrants became so
ambitious that even a Grey­hound
bus which was unlucky
enough to be passing through
at the time, did not escape un­scathed.
The trees and telephone
wires were decorated with
every conceivable shade of
toilet paper so that within a
few minutes, Auburn looked as
though it were celebrating
Christmas and Halloween at
the same time.
But consider what would
have happened if the situation
had been slightly different but
at the same time very similar.
Suppose instead, the
Vietnam War had ended and
all the "longhairs" had
gathered at Tocmer's to cele­brate.
Suppose that in their
good humor a few good
natured kidding obscenities
were exchanged.
Suppose they had decided to
paint buildings with peace
symbols and to disrupt traffic
and ask people if they would
like their cars painted with
anti-war slogans. Suppose
that illegal drugs had been
present.
Do you think that the police
would have ignored that
"spontaneous demonstra­tion"
as they did the one on Sa­turday,
by being so conspi­cuously
absent?
Do you think the towns­people
would have gone along
crowd's excesses as they did
with the one last Saturday?
I must say that I thought the
whole affair was nothing more
than innocent, college-type
fun. People were happy
because the team had won. It
was nothing more or less than
that.
However it was interesting
to note that anti-war demon­strations
have been criticized
as being degenerate and un­patriotic
for precisely many of
the things that went on Satur­day.
Traffic was disrupted, ob­scenities
were shouted and
scrawled on cars and build­ings,
ambitious students who
as good-naturedly with that
were attempting to study in
Samford Parkwereinterrupted,
litter was visible in downtown
Auburn for days afterwards,
and beer was openly dis­played
oi» campus.
But there were no outraged
letters to the editor demand­ing
that these student distur­bances
be quelled.
Nobody called this demon­stration
Communist-inspired
and no one was calling now for
law and order.
Apparently there is one type
of law and order for people who
oppose the war, and another
for football fans.
THE AUBURN PUINSMMI
Continued from pope J
November 18, 1971
Auburn University football supporters celebrate victory over Georgia
fast and marched on an empty
stomach," chimed another voice.
"That's odd—I always march on my
feet," joked still another.
But conversation was dominated by
talk of the Game.
"Do you think he won the trophy
today?"
"Well, I can tell you one thing—If I
were voting for it, I'd sure vote for Sul­livan."
"Yeah, 1 would too. Did you see the
way he threw that one right down in
front of us? I knew we'd score the
second he let that ball go."
At other tables, talk was of New
Year's and bowl dates.
"Do you think we have a shot at the
Orange?"
"Naw, Bama's got that sewed up. But
we sure oughta have our pick of the
others."
"At least we don't have to go back to
Houston," an old-timer remarked.
Others were talking about the tradi­tional
Alabama game, with a mixture
of pride, apprehension and hope.
"We're gonna beat 'em, I just know
it!"
"After today I think we could beat
anybody."
"Heck, bring on the Tide!"
A breathless freshman girl whis­pered,
"Is that Pat Sullivan? The one
over there by the table . . . gee, he looks
just like his pictures." Sullivan quietly
accepted congratulations from all
quarters as he made his way to the
door. Terry Beasley cavorted toward
the door wearing an orange cowboy hat
and carrying a double-scoop ice cream
cone. The coaches and President Phil-pott
got up to leave, acknowledging a
final "War Eagle" before they slipped
out the door.
Now the bus drivers were getting up
and heading for the corner of the
parking lot where the six dark buses sat
idle. Band members converged on the
buses from all corners of the parking
lot. It had been a hard day, starting at 5
a.m., and everybody was eager to get
back to Auburn.
"I wonder if they had a good pep rally
at Toomer's Corner?"
They had a good pep rally at
Toomer's Corner—and all up and down
Magnolia Avenue and all over Auburn.
Toilet paper, , the long, fragile
banners of victory, were wrapped
around telephone poles, stoplights, and
overhanging trees. Every car that
came near Toomer's Corner left with
pertinent information painted in
orange and blue on the fenders, decks,
and windshield. "35-20" was common,
as was "Bear Beware" and "Auburn
#1." Some cars were even seen sporting
slogans that were less than compli­mentary
toward the University of Ala­bama.
At the height of the celebration a
Greyhound bus passing through
Auburn was attacked by brush-wield­ing
enthusiasts. It left with orange and
blue highlights on its drab gray sides.
By the time the band and the foot­ball
team got back to Auburn, the
celebration had made its way to Sewell
Hall where banners and throngs of
hysterical Auburn fans awaited the ar­rival
of thevictoriousTigers.
After the excitement had subsided,
and the enthusiasts had gone home to
dream about the Alabama game and
Sugar Bowl bids, the streets were
deserted. But the toilet paper thrown in
the trees bore witness to the pep rally
earlier and the painted windows of the
stores proudly displayed the Auburn
spirit. It had been a memorable day.
Registration
program will be worked out in a
meeting next week.
The "New York Times" this week
quoted a spokesman for the Lee County
Board of Registrars as saying "The
students could ruin the little town of
Auburn if they decided to register and
to take over the politics. Some of those
students at Auburn are nice, but a few
are just as radical as they can be."
Mrs. J. B. Norris, chairman of the
board of registrars, said that she did
not make the statement and that no
other member had made the statement
either.
H. C. Ivey, another member, said
that he did not "remember saying
that."
Mrs. A. C. Newman Sr., the other
member, could not be contacted by
press time.

Ways to have a 'hip' Thanksgiving dinner
and tie them tightly with a string. Place a big piece of alumi­num
foil over the bird and stick him in the oven at 365
degrees. Baste the turkey with water and its own juices every
25 minutes.
Just before the turkey is ready, begin preparing the other
items. The sweet potato dish should be started first.
Peel, wash and quarter four sweet potatoes. Cook in
boiling water until tender, but not mushy. Drain and cut into
small slices. Next, put a layer of the sweet potatoes in the
bottom of a medium-sized casserole dish. Take four bananas
and slice them. Put a layer of bananas on top of the sweet po­tatoes.
Place alternating layers of these items until they nearly
fill the top of the dish. Cover the top of the dish with marsh-mallows
and bake for 30 minutes at 360 degrees. Serves
eight.
The next exotic dish to be prepared is the squash. Slice six
small squash into discs; chop up one fourth of an onion,
crumble up four pieces of bacon, and dice as much sharp
cheddar cheese as is desired. Put these ingredients into a
frying pan with a small amount of water and butter. Cover
and cook on the top of the stove until the squash is tender and
falling apart. Serves eight.
Everyone enjoys a fancy new drink at a meal and here is a
punch with that extra zing. Combine three cups of canned or I
bottled apricot juice, the juice of three large oranges and |
three lemons, one-and-one-half quarts of cider, and two
dozen maraschino cherries. Chill thoroughly and serve over
crushed ice. Serves 12 to 15.
The dessert is fudge brownies. It is a very simple dessert,
but, if made properly, can put the evening in another dimen­sion.
Set the oven at 325 degrees. Rub an 8 by 12 inch pan with |
margarine or shortening. Cream three tablespoons butter or 1
margarine; gradually add one cup sugar and beat until light
and smooth; beat in two eggs. Bake two ounces baking
chocolate in small pieces and melt over cold water. Let cool.
Add the chocolate to the creamed mixture. Stir in three and
one half tablespoons sifted flour, one teaspoon vanilla and ||
one cup nuts. I
To make the brownies extra special, add half a cup of I
finely ground marijuana. Mix and spread in the pan and
bake 30 minutes. Eat as soon as possible, then sit back and
have a good time.

THE AUBURN PUINSMMI

November 18, 1971
Sullivan's like other dads—with a few exceptions
i
By Randy Donaldson
Sports Editor
Johnny Carson was providing Pat Sullivan's entertain­ment
Tuesday night when a late-night intruder knocked on
his door.
"Come in," Sullivan called. "But let that door close easy,
please, you don't want to wake up the baby."
It seemed funny, somehow, to hear the Back of the Week in
the nation worrying about waking up the baby, but then Pat
Sullivan is not different from any other father.
Except for a few small details.
Like being the man who has rewritten the Auburn football
record books, like being a leading contender for the Heisman
Trophy, and like being the man that has led the Auburn foot­ball
team to a 9-0 season and a shot at the SEC championship.
That's the only difference.
He has normal problems. He has to study, he has to talk his
wife into taking the baby-sitter home, and such.
But then again, he has a few unusual problems. He has to
put up with sports writers all day long, he has to plot against
third-best-in-the-nation defenses, and he has to captain the
nation's fifth-ranked team.
You wouldn't know
But you wouldn't know it from talking to him.
"When I came here four years ago, I never even thought
about setting records or anything," he said. "I was just sort of
awed by it all, and I was just hoping that I'd be able to play
and start.
"Now, four years later, one thing that I think about is the
friendships that I've made with my teammates.
"I wouldn't take anything for the friends that I've made.
You can call it love or whatever, but I wouldn't take anything
for them."
It doesn't seem strange that Sullivan's best friends off the
field are the ones that he has the most contact with on the
field.
"I didn't know Terry back when we were just out of high
school, but before we were to go to the High School All-star
game, he called me up and asked if I wanted to work out for a
couple of days," Sullivan said of Beasley. "We've been friends
ever since. «
The other of Sullivan's primary targets, too, is a close friend.
Dick Schmalz and Sullivan both went to John Carrol High
School in Birmingham, and have been friends for a long time
now.
Another big factor
Spence McCracken says ^Here's my Heisman winner' in dressing room
Another big factor in Sullivan's life walked in the door at
that moment. His wife, Jean, had returned from taking the
baby-sitter home.
"You know," he said. "Being married can be good for some
and not for others. It just depends on the individual.
"Jean has been around football for a long time, so she
knows a lot about it and she doesn't nag me asking questions
about it.
"I don't think that she's ever asked me anything like 'How
did practice go today?' or like that. We never talk about foot­ball
unless I bring it up.
"Home is a way to get away from being around football all
the time."
Moving away from the domestic front, Sullivan remem­bered
some of the high and low points of his college career.
"The thing that I was happiest about, probably, was my
first varsity Alabama game, and the thing that I was most dis­appointed
about was the LSU game when we were sopho­mores.
What about the future?
"If I get the opportunity to play pro football, I wish that I
could go to an organization where there aren't any arguments
between the players and general managers and owners. I'd
like to go to a place where I would be happy."
When Sullivan does go to pro ball, he should have no trouble
in handling any publicity that comes his way. Since leading
the nation in total offense last year and finishing sixth in the
Heisman voting, Sullivan has been hounded constantly by
sports writers from all over the nation.
"Everyone likes a certain amount of publicity," he said,
"and I'm just like everyone else. I won't say that I get tired of
the publicity and talking to people, but it can interfere some­times
with leading a regular home life."
The Heisman Trophy, of course, is the subject about which
Sullivan is asked the most. And he was asked about it again.

'Superman'plus'Boy Wonder'zap
'Dogs, 35-20, Sugar Bowl
By Randy Donaldson
Sports Editor
You've never really lived
until you've seen the Pres­ident
of your University come
running into the dressing
room, throw his fist into the
air, and let fly with his loud­est
cheer.
And that's what the
delirious Auburn dressing
room saw Saturday after the
Tigers had just defeated
Georgia 35-20 in what had
been billed as the biggest
game in SEC history.
"It's just great, isn't it,"
President Harry Philpott
grinned. "It's just great."
And great it was. The clas­sic
battle couldn't have been
scripted better to suit Au­burn
fans as the three-point
underdog Tigers scored with
comparative ease on the
defensively tough Bulldogs,
and were able to hold off the
vaunted running attack that
had made Georgia 9-0.
Pat Sullivan was, well, Pat
Sullivan. Four touchdowns,
tying an NCAA career mark
for TD responsibility, 14 of 24
passing for 248 yards, flaw­less
play calling, and a Heis-man-
like performance were
all part of his day.
Terry Beasley caught two
bombs for touchdowns, Dick
Schmalz caught two more for
scores, Tommy Lowry ran for
88 yards through the middle
of the Georgia line, and
caught two crucial screen
passes for more yardage. The
Tigers, to understate it, were
good.
"Hey, Pat, are you hap­py?"
one happy fan asked
Sullivan.
With a grin of astonish­ment
on his face that such a
dumb question could be
asked, Sullivan responded,
"I'm elated."
"Have you ever seen so
many people go crazy like
they did?" he asked.
"Which time?" someone
responded.
Sullivan just grinned a lit­tle
bigger and kept on dres­sing.
But it took him a while
longer to get out of his pads.
From the moment writers
were allowed in the dressing
room, Sullivan sat on the
bench answering questions
and he stayed that way until
the rest of the team, with the
exception of Terry Beasley,
was dressed and ready to go.
"They rushed real well, and
they've got a fine team," he
said. "Terry is a super play­er,
and the offensive line
played tremendously. We
have a great bunch of guys."
All the while, little kids
wearing No. 7 jerseys would
come up to Sullivan and glow
when they got to shake his
hand.
"Wasn't that a great
game," Bill Crisler of the Cot­ton
Bowl said. "Where's Sul­livan?
I've got to shake his
hand."
Dick Schmalz, like every­one
else, was all smiles.
"Dick, I just can't think of
anything to say," someone
said to him.
"Neither can any of us"
Schmalz said, "Except that it
was great."
Coach Jordan took part in
the celebrations, too, and
spoke with pride of his team
and his quarterback.
"This was the greatest
game that Auburn has ever
played." he said. "We've been
saving it for a long time.
"And if Pat Sullivan isn't
the best football player in the
nation, then there's one hell
of a football player some­where
else.
The opposition, Vince
Dooley, had a summation of
the game.
"Superman had a super
day," he moaned. "And the
boy wonder helped him out."
Buzy Rosenberg, Georgia's
defensive sideback and ace
punt returner, described
what he felt like after the
game.
"It's like when somebody
dies," he said. "It really
doesn't hit you until a couple
of days later. I'm just sort of
numb right now.
"Sullivan is a great
quarterback, just like every­body
says, and Beasley's a
great receiver. But that
Schmalz is a great receiver,
too." <
After the dressing room
festivities had finally died
away, two Auburn students
walked the length of Sanford
Stadium's field, reveling in
what they had just witnes­sed.
"You know," one of them
said. "This was biggest game
in SEC history, and it will
stay that way for, oh gosh,
two weeks."
And as Coach Jordan
would say, you're so right.
By David Weber
Assistant Sport Editor
The stage has been set.
Auburn has beaten a very
fine University of Georgia
football team by the decisive
score of 35-20.
Alabama, though not play­ing
three key members of an
outstanding offensive back-field,
has trounced the
University of Miami, 31-3.
Thus both teams keep in­tact
perfect slates, Alabama
sporting a 10-0 record while
Auburn is unbeaten and un­tied
in nine outings. The only
stumbling block remaining
for both is the Nov. 27 date in
Birmingham's Legion Field,
the 36th meeting in one of col­lege
football's greatest tradi­tional
rivalries.
Never before in the history
of the Southeastern Con­ference
have two teams
entered the season finale
undefeated and untied.
The Crimson Tide has been
a surprise to football "ex­perts"
in 1971. Picked to
finish fourth in the SEC, the
Tide shocked the football
world with its season-open­ing
17-7 win over perennial
power Southern Cal. In the
ensuing weeks, Alabama has
proven that the "shocker"
was no fluke, rolling over
such formidable opponents
as Ole Miss, Houston, Ten­nessee
and LSU.
Alabama's success this
season can largely be at­tributed
to the installation of
the Wishbone-T offense, and
a vastly improved defense.
Eight starters return on de­fense
for the Tide, even
though linebacker Jim Krapf
has moved to the offensive
line. Senior Robin Park-house
at left end, and John
Mitchell at the right
terminal, have given the Tide
excellent flank play. Sup­porting
them on the Ala­bama
defensive line are Ter­ry
Rowell, a cat-quick 197-
pounder at left tackle, and the
235-pound Jeff Beard on the
right side.
Jeff Rouzie returns at the
strongside linebacker posi­tion.
Selected as the Out­standing
Defensive Player in
the Astro-Bluebonnet bowl
game last year, Rouzie is a
contender for all-star honors.
Sophomore Chuck Strick­land
has come along so quick­ly
that middle linebacker
Krapf was enabled to shift to
the offense. Wayne Hall and
Tom Surlas have been
sharing the duties on the
weak side.
Steve Higginbotham at left
sideback leads the
secondary. Higginbotham, a
sound football player who
loves contact, is currently
leading the conference in in­terceptions.
Steve Williams and Bobby
McKinney operate from the
right sideback slot, sharing
playing time about equally.
Junior Steve Wade fills the
free safety position, and at
the strong safety post is Lan-ny
Norris, a tough and ag­gressive
football player.
David McMakin and the apt­ly
named Jeff Blitz are more
than adequate reserves.
"The Tide defensive unit of
1971 has allowed only 77
points in ten games, com­pared
to the 240 given up in
11 games last year.
On offense, Alabama has
converted to the Wishbone-T,
and nobody is better adapted
to it than Johnny Musso. The
All-American running back
holds virtually every SEC
rushing record, including
total yardage, in addition to
being the SEC's all-time lead­ing
scorer. And he blocks just
as hard as he runs. Accord­ing
to Head Coach Paul
"Bear" Bryant, the ideal
situation"would be to have
Musso running the ball be­hind
Musso blocking."
Musso's supporting cast in
the Alabama backfield is al­most
as impressive. Quarter­back
Terry Davis does a
superb job of guiding the of­fense.
Running backs Joe
LaBue and Ellis Beck are
hard-running backs that ex­cel
at getting that extra yard
or two. David Knapp and Wil­bur
Jackson are excellent
replacements.
Guards Jimmy Rosser and
Jim Krapf, tackle John Han­nah,
and center Jimmy
Grammer open the holes for
the backs, and they have
been so effective that the Tide
is averaging 328.7 yards per
game on the ground.
Should he be forced to pass,
quarterback Davis is bless^jj
with a host of good receivers.
Foremost is split end David
Bailey, but he is given able
assistance by Dexter Wood
and Bubba Sawyer. Tight
end Randy Moore can also
catch the ball. iJ
Place kicking is handled by
sophomore Bill Davis, who
has already booted 12 field
goals this season, one short
of the SEC record.
The nationally televised
meeting is a crucial one to
both schools. Riding on the
outcome are the SEC title,
major bowl bids, high
national ranking, and the
"state championship" of Ala­bama.
A further incentive for the
Auburn seniors, as if they
needed one, is the fact that
they have never lost to Ala­bama
on the gridiron.
It should be a helluva
game. All Auburn-Alabama
games are.
Sullivan, Beasley
take honors
Pat Sullivan was named the National Back of the
Week by the Associated Press for his performance
against Georgia last Saturday, and Terry Beasley was
named the Southeast area lineman of the week as Au­burn
ran away with all the honors after the win over
Georgia.
It was the second time this year that Auburn had both
the lineman and back of the week for the area. Previous­ly
Sullivan and Tommy Yearout won the awards for

While all the marbles are on the line for the football
teams in the last three weeks of the season, they are also
on the line for the Plainsman pickers, in this, the last
week of forecasting.
Select games from the rest of the year have been
chosen, and a couple of toughies are thrown in there.
WEGL, leading the pack with a 61-19 record, will have to
pick games like Nebraska-Oklahoma and Auburn-Ala­bama.
Randy Donaldson moved back into the thick of things
by having the best week in an off week for the forecast­ers
at 7-3. He now is tied with David Weber for second
place with a 60-20 mark.
Armand DjeKeyser and the Guest stayed even, as they
have all yearj, with 5-5 weeks, and season totals of 56-24.
John Samford fell back into a tie for last place with the
Old Pro by gbing 5-5, and now both are 53-27 for the sea­son.
This weekfs guest, or more properly, guests, are the
members of: the Athletic Department staff that have
meant so much to the sports pages of The Plainsman
this fall. They are Joe Cook, Mike Merrill, Nancy
French, Linda Howard, and David Housel.
The Muhlenberg Mules end their season this week by
battling Moravian, after dropping their game to Frank­lin
and Marshall last week.

Football crown up for grabs
s DC, OTS, TKE, and ATO
moved into the semifinals of
the fraternity football play­offs.
While all four teams
have played well, only one of
them will win the BIG crown.
Which one will it be? I dare
not venture to guess.
DC got into the finals with
a 24-0 win over SPE. Eddie
Gaylord threw two touch­down
passes to Craig Trapni.
They, also, scored on the re­turn
of an intercepted pass.
DSP held TKE in check for
most of the game before
falling to the TKE's, 6-0. In
the middle of the fourth quar­ter,
Freddy Bussey threw for
the game's only score.
OTS whipped SN, 19-7, to
enter into the semi-finals.
Don Steen heaved three TD
passes, two to Bobby Farr
and one to Roger Richards.
All their points were scored in
the second quarter.
OTS's stong defense kept
the SN's bottled up pretty
well throughout the game. In
the second half they inter­cepted
five passes of the
SN's.
In defense of the SN's, they
were coming off a rough
game from the day before.
The SN's defeated the al­ways
dangerous Fiji's, 19-7,
enabling them to reach the
playoffs.
ATO sneaked by SAE to at­tain
a place in the semi­finals,
6-0. Danny Michael
hit Bruce Tulley with a touch­down
pass midway through
the third quarter.
Both teams were able to
move the ball fairly well, but
neither could cross that all
important goal line.
Showboat copped second
place in League 4 with their
win over Will's Raiders
earlier in the week. The score
was tied at the end of regula­tion,
but SH out-gained WR
25 yards to 19 yards in the
overtime period.
The Baptist Student Union
took first place in League 4 as
they mauled MMF, 13-6.
Air Force lost to the
Hustlers in "sudden death"
with the Hustlers moving 45
yards to the Air Force's 15
yards.
Div. O forfeited to Div. K &
M and the Blue Room Gang
captured their second win of
the year with a victory over
the Saints, 22-0.
Navy Gold easily won the
independent volleyball
crown. They had been
marked as the team to beat,
but no one was able to do so
they ran away with the
trophy.
All independent basket­ball
teams that intend to
participate this winter quar­ter
are required to have their
entries in by Nov. 30.

The Auburn Baby Tigers
will close out their season Sa­turday
at 1:30 p.m. in Cliff
Hare Stadium when they en­tertain
the Baby Tide of Ala­bama.
The Bama freshmen bring
a vaunted wishbone attack
lead by quarterback Danny
Ridgeway, tailback Ralph
Stokes, halfback Randy Bil-lingsly,
and fullback Bob
Holmes, into the affair. Their
crunching ground game has
carried them to a 3-1 record
with the only loss coming at
the hands of the Tennessee
freshmen, 35-14. Tide vic­tories
came against Navy, 28-
23, Vanderbilt, 41-7, and
Tulane, 23-22. In thatTulane
contest, Alabama scored two
touchdowns and two 2-point
conversions in the last quar­ter
to pull out the win.
"Alabama is a very good
fourth quarter football
team," said freshmen coach
Tom Jones. "They utilize
their personnel extremely
well and are also weli
coached, as usual. They
control the ball on the
ground, and use their backs
effectively as blockers."
The Baby Tigers enter the
showdown with a 2-1-1 slate,
including 13-9 and 19-0 vic­tories
over Florida and Ole
Miss, a 14-14 tie with Geor­gia;-
and a 28-25 loss to Miss.
State. The Tigers'attitude
is great according to Jones
and he expects a tough, hard-nosed
contest.
"I personally think it will
be a real battle," said Jones.

them and they are going to
come after us. It should be a
good prelude to the big affair
in Birmingham."
Last year, the Tide fresh­men
defeated the Baby
Tigers 9-3 with six of those
points coming in the last
seven minutes of the ball
game following a blocked
field goal by 'Bama from the
four yard line.
"Alabama has -blocked
either a punt or a field goal in
all our games," moaned
Jones. "We have worked real
hard on that phase of the
game and our punter, Randy
Walls, has improved kicking
under pressure. I won't say
we will not have a kick
blocked this time, but we will
come a lot closer to getting
them off cleanly."
The Tiger Cub offense has
been lead this season by tail­back
Mike Fuller and quar­terback
Joe Bruner. Fuller
has picked up 387 yards on 58
carries with 172 of those
coming against the Missis­sippi
State freshmen. Bruner
has hit on 37 out of 82 pass
attempts for 460 yards and
four touchdowns.
The defense, which has per­formed
brilliantly all season,
will get their biggest test of
the year against the Tide but
Jones is confident of his
Tiger defenders, as is offen­sive
coach Frank Young.
"This will be our first look
at the wishbone offfense,"
said Young. "We have been
making steady progress, but
I don't know how we will
react to this type offense.
"Our whole defensive unit
has played well this year,"
praised Jones. "Our line­backers
have been aggres­sive
and have played well, as
has the secondary." The
defense will also receive some
unexpected help in the person
of 6-3, 235, tackle Rich
Calkins.
Calkins was one of the
most highly sought after line­men
in the South last year,
but he injured his ankle
during his first game-type
scrimmage and had to have
surgery. However, he has
now recuperated enough to
see some limited action
against the Tide.
The starting lineup for the
Tiger Cub finale is as follows:
On offense, center Lee
Gross, guards Rex Bramlett
and Andy Steele, tackles
Hamlin Caldwell and Ben'
Strickland, tight end Dan
Nugent, split end Sherman
Moon, quarterback Bruner,
fullback Marc Rice, tailback
Fuller, and flanker Mac Phil-lippi.
On defense, ends Holly
Caldwell and Randy Carden,
tackles Tommy Burroughs
and Carlos Hart, linebackers
Ken Bernich, Carl Hubbard,
Pat Jones, and David Wil­liams,
sidebacks Bruce
Evans and James McKinney,
and safety Rick Neel.

THE AUBURN PUINSMAN November 18. 1971
Tigers tackle Gamecocks,
kickoff basketball slate
Decemberlst is a date which
is indelibly stamped on the
mind of Henry Harris. And of
Jim Retseck. And of the rest
of the Auburn basketball
team.
For on December 1st the
1971-1972 basketball season
begins. Always powerful
South Carolina, in its initial
season as an independent, in­vades
Auburn's Memorial
Coliseum in what is the
season opener for both
schools.
Picked to be one of the top
independent teams in the
country, the Gamecocks are
led by the 6-10 Tom Riker and
sharp-shooting Kevin Joyce.
Not only does the Frank
McGuire-coached team have
a potent offense, but the de­fense
specializes in being nig­gardly.
Auburn Head Coach Bill
Lynn is optimistic about the
Tigers' chances for the up­coming
season.
"We're coming along real
well," said Lynn. "It looks
like the knees should hold up,
and if they do we should be in
good shape."
"The knees" Lynn was re­ferring
to belong to Henry
Harris, Ralph Smith, and
Dan Kirkland. All three were
the victims of crippling knee
injuries last season. Smith
and Kirkland both under­went
surgery, while Harris
played last season in con­siderable
pain a great deal of
the time. Frequently, he has
been forced to have tne knee
drained.
"Smith and Kirkland are
practically well," continued
Lynn. "Kirkland is having
no trouble at all, and neither
is Smith. Naturally.we expect
a little trouble after an opera­tion,
with occasional flare-ups
and so on, so we're really
delighted at the progress they
have shown."
Pressed for comments
about a possible starting line­up,
Lynn responded without
hesitation.
"Jim Retseck and Kirk­land
will be the forwards. If I
were forced to pick a starting
center tomorrow, it would
probably be Ralph Smith, but
that's not definite. Albert
Johnson, a junior college
transfer, is learning all the
time and is extremely quick.
"Harris will definitely be
one of the guards, if his knee
holds up. Gary England has
the edge at the other guard
position, but Mike Christian
is really pushing him. Others
who have played well include
Brent Sutton and Albert
Leapheart."
Improvement over last
season's 10-15 record is easily
within reach. The 1971 squad
has far better balance than
last year's, and lack of depth
should not be a problem.
In a recent varsity scrim­mage,
the high scorer on the
first team, Dan Kirkland,
netted 12 points. Other scores
on the first team ranged to a
low of nine points.
"Everybody was right to­gether
in scoring," Lynn
noted. "We feel that we've got
more people who can score
this year, more people who
are capable of scoring. I think
we'll definitely be better than
we were a year ago."
Lynn indicated that he
intends to carry 11 or 12
players on the roster this
year, depending on how
many people he believes will
be able to help the team. Only
time will tell how much help
the 1971 Tigers will need.

An injury-plauged Auburn
wrestling squad will open its
mat season next weekend at
the Southern Open in Chat­tanooga,
Tenn.
The Open will draw top
flight teams from across the
country with as many as 300
grapplers expected to partici­pate.
The event was held in
December last year and as a
result, Auburn did not enter.
"We didn't go last year
because we wanted to give
Interference
Dick Schmalz leaps in vain for
a Pat Sullivan pass after Georgia
halfback Phil Sullivan bumped him

territory, but the Tigers weren't able to get a score out of
the drive.

our boys more than a week of
holidays which is all they
would have had if we had par­ticipated,"
said wrestling
coach Arnold "Swede" Um-bach.
"I think this is one of
the reasons why the date was
pushed back."
With a large number Of
matmen out for the squad
this season, Umbach expects
to take at least 22 grapplers to
the Open, maybe 25, or pos­sibly
even 30. However, the
injury bug has severely de­pleted
the ranks and has af­fected
some of Umbach's top
wrestlers.
Dan Lee, in the 158 pound
class, from Waterloo, Iowa,
hurt his knee practicing a
week ago and had to undergo
the knife. He will be lost to the
team for the year.
Joe Russo, 142, from Islip,
N. Y ., has a shoulder injury
which according to Umbach
will have to have surgery. He,
too, will be out for the season.
Dan Cathey, 126, from Ok­lahoma,
injured his knee
about one week before prac- y^.
tice began and just recently//
had the cast removed. It is
not known how long it will be
before he will see action.
Competition is close in all
weight classes except one,
that being at 167 where Mike
Roberts has a firm grip. Face
offs will be Friday to deter­mine
the top man in each
weight class for the Open.
At 118, Greg West and
Eddie Rew are waging a stiff
battle. At 126, David Cathey,
brother of Don, will wrestle
Chan Aldridge. At 134, Trent
Miller, a transfer from Okla­homa
who is elibigle to
compete in the Open but not
in seasonal matches, will
grapple with Bill Puckett.
At 142, Bob Haun will
square off against Bill Bailey
or Bobby Lackston. At 150,
either Don Norby or Paul
Wingard will face Gary
Crews of Tulsa, Okla. At 158,
brother Benjamin Crews will
meet Bill Hilleke or Jim Cope-land.
At 177, Steve Brown will
wrestle Butch Burt. At 190,
George Calloway will con­front
Pete Musgrove and in
the heavy-weight class, Don
Borst of Marion, Iowa, will
battle Georgian Clark Rich.

"I'd be lying to you if I said that I didn't want to win it, and
I'd be lying to you if I said I won't be disappointed if I don't win
it," he admitted. "But I'm not going to think about it, and I'm
not going to worry about it so much."
The Heisman winner will be announced at half-time of the
nationally televised Georgia-Georgia Tech game Thanksgiv­ing
night. What will Sullivan be doing?
"I'll just be sitting around watching the game," he said mat-ter-
of-factly.
But, then comes the big game—Alabama.
"I think it's going to be a great game," he noted."I thought
Alabama had superior personnel last year, and this year they
seem to have put it all together.
"But we're not planning to spot them 17 points this year. In
fact, we've spotted them some three years in a row now, so I'm
waiting for them to spot lis some.
"I don't think that the success we've had against Alabama
has anything to do with just me, or Terry, or any one indivi­dual.
We've had kind of a group confidence when we've been
playing Alabama."
"Well, Pat," the intruder said. "Thank you for letting me
talk to you."
"Certainly," Sullivan said. "But there's one thing before
you go."
"Sure, Pat."
"Uh, could you give me my pen back?" he asked. "I needjt
for class tomorrow."

Who said citizen action is futile? Populism in the
nineteenth century left an indelible mark on the
nation. Citizen action won the vote for women in
1920 and brought the abolition of child labor. The
labor movement, the civil rights movement, the
peace movement, the conservation movement — all
began with concerned citizens. If we had waited for
the government or Congress or the parties to initiate
any of them, we'd still be waiting. Try to think of a
significant movement in our national life tftit was
initiated by the bureaucracy. Or by Congress. C" by
the parties.
For a while, we lost confidence in our capacity to
act as citizens, but the citizen is getting back to his
feet. And citizen action is taking on a tough minded
professional edge it never had before. Never has our
society needed more desperately the life-giving
spark of citizen action. We must make our instru­ments
of self-government work. We must halt the
abuse of the public interest by self-seeking special
interests.
The special interests buy favor through campaign
gifts. What flows back is literally scores of billions of
dollars in tax breaks, in lucrative defense contracts,
in favored treatment of certain regulated industries,
in tolerance of monopolistic practices. And the tax­payer
foots the bill.
To combat such pervasive corruption, we must
strike at the two instruments of corruption in public
life—money and secrecy.
To combat the corrupting power of money, we
must control campaign spending and lobbying, and
require full disclosure of conflict of interest on the
part of public officials.
To tear away the veil of secrecy, we must enact
"freedom of information" or "right to know" statutes
which require that the public business be done pub­licly.
And that's only a beginning. We can regain
command of our instruments of self-government.
To accomplish this, each citizen must become an
activist, especially the college student with his
newly acquired right to vote. He must make his voice
heard. Common Cause, a national citizens' lobby,
was created to accomplish just that. It hoped to en­roll
100,000 members in its first year, and got that
number in 23 weeks! On its first anniversary, it had
200,000 members.
• // was the chief citizens' group lobbying for the Constitu­tional
Amendment on the 18-year old vote.
• It joined with environmental groups to defeat the SST.
• It brought the first real challenge in a generation to the
tyrannical seniority system in Congress.
• It helped bring the House of Representatives to its first
recorded vote on the Vietnam War.
• It has s led the major parties to enjoin them from violat­ing
the campaign spending laws.
There is much more to do. And the time to do it is
now. The American people are tired of being bilked
and manipulated. It's time to give this country back
to its people. For additional information, write Com­mon
Cause, Box 220, Washington, D.C. 20044.

THE AUBURN PUINSMMI November 18, 1971
8. Procedural rights of re­gistrants
An insider's guide to the new draft law
Selective service system releases
changes in deferment regulations
The Selective Service System today released a list of signi­ficant
changes in their regulations which will affect young
men facing the draft process in the future.
The changes will supplement the amendments to the Se­lective
Service Act which were recently signed into law by
the President. They are expected to become effective
throughout the more than 4,000 local draft boards in early
December. Prior to their effective date, interested persons
may submit their written views on the prospective Regula­tions
to the Director of Selective Service.
One of the major changes concerns 2-S student defer­ments.
Undergraduate college students who were not en­rolled
on a full-time basis and making satisfactory progress
toward a baccalaureate degree during the regular 1970-71
academic year will not qualify for 2-S deferments. The regu­lations
also will set similar criteria for students in junior
colleges, trade and technical schools and apprenticeship
programs.
The establishment of a new classification—1-H—also is
one of the significant items in the long list of changes. This
classification will be an administrative holding category,
and men in Class 1-H will have inactive files and will not be
considered for induction unless they are reclassified 1-A. Be­ginning
with the 1972 prime selection group, a 1-H cutoff
number will be set and with a few exceptions, men with lot­tery
numbers above the cutoff number will remain or be
placed in Class 1-H for their period of prime exposure to the
draft.
The new regulations also will establish time limits for per­sonal
appearances. Each registrant will be entitled to such
time for his personal appearance with his local board as is
reasonable necessary for a fair presentation of his claim.
Normally, 15 minutes will be deemed adequate for this
purpose. He also will be allowed to bring up to three wit­nesses
to the meeting. The same criteria will pertain to a re­gistrant
who elects to meet with his appeal board, except
that he will not have the right to bring witnesses.
Young men who wish to drop draft deferments in favor of
1-A classifications may still do so. Local boards will con­tinue
to grant these requestseven though the young men con­tinue
to meet the conditions for which the deferments were
granted. Six categories are included: 1-S, high school stu­dents;
2-A, occupational deferments or vocational/technical
students; 2-C, agricultural deferments; 2-D, divinity stu­dents;
2-S, undergraduate college students; and 3-A, hard­ship
deferments.
RSN 125 has been set as the year-end ceiling: for 1971 draft
calls. Unlike 1970, when the year-end ceiling was not neces­sarily
reached by all local boards, the authorization in the
1971 draft amendments of a Uniform National Call insures
that all eligible registrants will be considered for induction if
they: (1) are in Class 1-A on Dec. 31, (2) are 20 years of age or
older on that date, and (3) have RSNs of 125 or below. If
young men meet these criteria, but are not inducted during
1971, their liability for induction will be extended into 1972.
They will be prime candidates for induction during the first
three months of the year along with other men who are now
in the extended priority selection group.
A complete listing of the proposed regulation changes
follows.

Students who were not quali­fied
for 2-S undergraduate
student deferments during
the 1970-71 regular academic
year will not be considered
for 2-S deferments.
2. Deferments for stu­dents
in junior colleges,
t r a d e and technical
schools and apprentice
ship program (programs
which do not lead to Bac­calaureate
Degrees)
Registrants had a right to 2-A
deferments if they were
students in good standing
and were making satisfac­tory
progress toward the com­pletion
of their programs.
Not covered by the 1971
amendments. The current po­licy
was set by Regulation.
Students who were not quali­fied
for student deferments
during the 1970-71 academic
year will not be considered
for 2-A deferments. For those
programs with no formal aca­demic
year, July 1 will be the
cutoff date.
3. Deferments
school students
for high High school students were
eligible for Class l-S(H) until
they reached age 20, dropped
out of school or graduated.
The amendments changed
the mandatory deferment to
a postponement.
Students in their last year
will be postponed until the
end of their academic year;
others will be postponed until
they reach age 20 or drop out
of school.
4. Temporary defer­ments
and postpone­ments
for college stu­dents
Students who were not quali­fied
for 2-S deferments and
who received induction
orders were classified l-S(C)
until the end of their current
academic year, with the ex­ception
of certain graduate
students whose inductions
were postponed until the end
of their current academic
year.
The l-S(C) classification re­quirement
was replaced by a
requirement to grant a post­ponement
of induction. The
amendments also require the
granting of a postponement
for the full academic year, if it
is the student's last year in
school.
Both undergraduate and
graduate students who re­ceive
induction orders will
have their induction post­poned
until the end of their
current academic term,
quarter or semester, except
for those students in their
last academic year, who will
be postponed until the end of
the academic year.
5. Divinity student ex­emptions
Students in divinity schools,
or pursuing programs
leading to entrance into divi­nity
schools in which they
had been pre-enrolled, were
exempted from military
service.
The divinity student exemp­tion
was changed to a man­datory
deferment so that
students who do not enter the
ministry as their vocation
would have liability for mili­tary
service until age 35.
A new classification, 2-D, will
be established for divinity
students who are satisfac­torily
pursuing full-time
courses of instruction.
6. Uniform National Call A quota and call system was
used to apportion the na­tional
draft call to the state
headquarters, who in turn ap­portioned
the call to indivi­dual
draft boards.
The amendments removed
the requirement to use the
quota and call system and au­thorized
other methods for is­suing
calls for induction.
A Uniform National call for
issuing induction orders
under the lottery system will
be authorized. Under the Uni­form
National Call, all young
men with the same lottery
numbers who are subject to
induction that year will re­ceive
induction notices at ap­proximately
the same time.
7. Eligibility for surviv­ing
son exemptions
Young men were eligible for
sole surviving son exemp­tions
if they were the sole sur­viving
son of a family in
which the father or one or
more sons or daughters were
killed in action or died in the
line of duty.
In addition to those who
qualify for the sole surviving
son exemption, young men of
families in which the father,
a brother or a sister was
killed in action or died in the
line of duty while serving in
the armed forces after De­cember
31,1959, or died there­after
of disease or injury in­curred
in the line of duty, or is
in a captured or misssing in
action status, will be eligible
for the exemption.
A new classification, 4-G, will
be established for those sur­viving
sons and sole surviv­ing
sons who are exempt
from service during peace­time.
Registrants were entitled to a
personal appearance before
their local board following
each classification decision;
a quorum of the board was
not required at personal ap­pearances.
No witnesses
were allowed at the personal
appearance. Registrants also
had the right to appeal their
classification action to a
state appeal board and, if the
decision of the state board
was less than unanimous, to
appeal to a Presidential
appeal board. Neither a per­sonal
appearance nor wit­nesses
were allowed at these
appeals.
Each registrant was given
the right to bring witnesses to
his personal appearances
and to present his case before
a quorum of his local board.

the right to appear in person
before an appeal board and, if
the case is referred to the
Presidential appeal board, to
appear in person before that
board. Further, the regis­trant
was given the right to
request a written statement
from the local or appeal
board of the reasons why his
classification request was
denied.

titled to such time for his per­sonal
appearance as is rea
sonably necessary for a fair
presentation of his claim.

19. Prepublication of Re­gulations
in the Federal
Register
There was no requirement
that Regulation changes be
prepublished in the Federal
Register.
See next column. The Regulations will imple­ment
the 1971 amendments
which require the prepubli­cation
of Regulation changes
in the Federal Register at
least 30 days prior to their ef­fective
date. During this 30
day period, any person may
submit his written views on
the prospective Regulations
to the Director of Selective
Service. No formal hearings
will be required.
20. Requesting of defer­ments

a member of the registrant's
immediate family or his em­ployer
could request a defer­ment
for him from his local
board.
Not covered in the 1971
amendments; this policy es­tablished
by Regulations.
Members of the registrant's

2 1 . Civilian work
program for conscien­tious
objectors
Conscientious objectors who
are classified 1-0 are required
to perform alternate civilian
service in the national in­terest
if their RSN (lottery
number) is reached. The ad­ministration
of this program
has been a responsibility of
local draft boards. Regis­trants
were given an oppor­tunity
to locate employment.
If they were unable to locate
employment, they could be
ordered to civilian work se­lected
by their local board.
The 1971 amendments trans­ferred
the responsibility for
administering the 1-0 alter­nate
civilian service program
to the National Director of Se­lective
Service.
The National Director will
delegate the responsibility
for the 1-0 work program to
state directors. Utilizing
broadened guidelines for ac­ceptable
employment, 1-0 re­gistrants
will have 60 days in
which to locate and submit
for approval a specific job
offer(s). If the state director
does not approve this speci­fic
job offer, the registrant
may request a review of the
job offer by the National Di­rector.
If the registrant is un­able
to locate a suitable job,
or if his job proposal is re­jected
by Selective Service, he
will be ordered to alternate ci­vilian
service by his local
board. Upon assignment to
civilian service, 1-0 regis
trants are reclassified 1-W.
Registrants who have sue
cessfully completed their two
year alternate civilian
service assignments will be
reclassified 4-W, a new clas­sification.
22. Classification 1-H This is a new classification. Not covered in
amendments;
tions normally
by Regulations.
the 1971 A new classification—1-
Classifica- H—will be established which
established is an administrative or
"holding" classification. Re­gistrants
classified 1-H will
have inactive files and will
not be considered for induc-
• tion unless they are reclassi­fied
out of 1-H into Class 1-A.
a. The effect of Class 1-H on young men who t u rn 18 in 1972 Beginning in 1972, except for
registrants who enter the
service, join Reserve units,
are surviving sons, are put in
Class 4-F or certain aliens, all
new registrants will be clas­sified
1-H and kept there until
after the lottery drawing for
their age group, which will be
in 1973. Shortly thereafter a
1-H cutoff number will be set
by the National Director as a
processing ceiling. Those re­gistrants
with RSNs (lottery
numbers) below the 1-H cut­off
will have their files acti­vated
and they will be con­sidered
for reclassification
into 1-A, or into appropriate
other classifications. Those
registrants with lottery
numbers above the 1-H cut­off
will remain in Class 1-H
during their period of prime
exposure to the draft.
b. The effect of Class 1-H on young men who turned 18 in 1971 Men who registered in 1971
were classified 1-A upon re­gistration.
This age group
will have their lottery draw­ing
in 1972. Shortly there­after,
a 1-H cutoff will be set
for this age group. At that
time, those registrants with
RSNs above the cutoff will be
reclassified 1-H and their
files will be inactivated.
Unless th?re is a major
change in military man­power
requirements, 1-H cut­off
numbers are expected to
remain unchanged during
the period of prime vulner­ability
for each age group.
c. The effect of Class 1-H on young men who will be subject to
induction in 1972
A 1-H cutoff number also will
be set for the group which will
be subject to induction in
1972 (those young men who
reached age 18 in 1970 as well
as some older men who
dropped deferments). Those
registrants with RSNs above
the cutoff will be reclassified
1-H. At the end of the year,
those registrants below the 1-
H cutoff whose RSNs are not
reached for induction also
will be reclassified 1-H.
d. The effect of Class 1 -H on men who have already completed
their year of prime exposure to the draft
Registrants who have
already been exposed to the
induction process, or who will
be at the end of 1971, whose
RSNs were not reached, also
will be reclassified 1-H. Their
files will be inactivated and
they will be kept in Class 1-H
until they reach their 26th
birthday.
Elvis' charm captivates UA audience
For an instant the atmos­phere
was filled with pink
and orange dancing lights,
myriads of flashes, and high-pitched
squeals of delight.
That was the instant that
Elvis Presley, the King of
Rock and Roll, ambled onto
the dimly lit stage in the Me­morial
Coliseum, Tuscaloo­sa,
Alabama, last Sunday.
Elvis, dressed in black and
red trimmed with gold
sequins, slowly bowed and
grinned while he accepted the
tremendous praise that came
gushing at him. Whether for
the beautiful costume, or for
Elvis himself, or for his heart-tearing
songs, the Elvis wor­shippers
were captivated by
his charm from that instant.
With the aid of his back-up
band and the Sweet Inspira­tions,
Elvis reminisced with
songs that made him famous.
Accompanying himself on
the guitar, his "Love Me
Tender" brought loud sighs
from his adoring audience.
Enthralled had to be the word
to describe every member as
he sang "Are You Lonely To­night"
and "Treat Me Like A
Fool." The faster songs such
as "Blue Suede Shoes" and
"Jailhouse Rock" brought
wholehearted audience par­ticipation
with clapping and
whistling as he gyrated to the
music in the Elvis tradition.
These gyrations were almost
too much for the real Elvis
fans. Some disapproved of
his retreating into the songs
of yesteryear but everyone
enjoyed the old-time favorite
"You Ain't Nothing But A
Hound-dog."
Not only did he cater to the
