Senate Meets, Discusses Problems,
Forms Committees For New Year
<
The Auburn Student Senate held its first meeting of the
quarter on Thursday, September 26, in the Student Union
Building. , ' ; I J*J
One of the major issues b r o u g h t u p in general discussion
was the traffic problem. The Senate decided to appoint a
chairman, senior senator; Bo Da­vidson,
junior senator, and Bill
Sewell, sophomore senator.
A preliminary report on the
findings of the committee selected
to investigate the status of sup­posedly
inactive or defunct cam­pus
organizations was given by
Sophomore Senator Bill Sewell.
He told the Senate that the work
of the committee, had not yet
been completed, but that they
could expect a full report at the
next meeting. The list of these
organizations is much larger than
anticipated. He went on to say
that the committee had decided
that all organizations on the
campus lagging in activity will be
spurred by the committee. Those
not responding are to be placed
on the already large inactive list.
The four members of the Pub­lications
Board approved by the
Senate from the list of recom­mendations
submitted by Mr. J.
E. Foy, director of student af­fairs,
were Gene Burr, Tom
Burson, Jamie Price, and Tom
Espy. Jerry Goddard with Lewis
Anderson as alternate were ap­proved
for appointment to the
Men's Disciplinary Committee
from the list sent in by President
committee to study the question
of whether or not freshmen
should be allowed to have auto­mobiles
on the campus, and then
submit a recommendation, pro or
con, to the traffic committee. Ap­pointed
to this committee were
"^'Bill Kight, chairman, and Polly
East, senior senators; Don Mead­ows,
junior senator; and Tony
Glasgow, sophomore senator.
The Senate Committee was al­so
expected to meet with the
Traffic Committee to discuss the
possibility of keeping Magnolia
Avenue West of Wire Road open
as a two-way thoroughfare dur­ing
Homecoming season, and to
inquire as to the purpose and
effectiveness of the traffic light
hanging in front of the library
building.
An Auburn school flag, or ban­ner,
as it would be called until
final approval by the Board of
Trustees, was discussed. Nothing
specific was decided.
The Senate also appointed a
committee to probe more deeply
into the pros and cons of a school
mascot, and place their recom­mendations
before the group at
some future date. On this com­mittee
are Stewart McKnight,
Draughon.
The m e e t i n g time of the
Senate was changed to 7 p. m.,
on the first and third Tuesdays
of the month. Student Body Vice
President Walter Glenn again re­minded
all that any student
is welcome to a p p e a r before
the Senate, or to contact his res­pective
senator at any time he
has a problem or recommenda­tion
that he feels the Senate
should consider.
Student Body Cabinet Meets In Union;
Asiatic Flu, Other Problems Discussed
The Auburn Student Body Cabinet met for the first time
this quarter on Wednesday, September 25, in the Student
Union Building.
The most pressing issue brought before the group 4vas the
presence of communicable diseases on the campus. The cabinet
urges all students who develop w o r k o u t an; arrangement with
•4»ny symptoms of any sort of
''communicable disease to report
immediately to the infirmary for
diagnosis and treatment.
Sonny* Stein, superintendent of
spirit, reported to the group that
the scheduled bus trip to Ten­nessee
was cancelled because of
a ruling of the bus company that
drivers must be allowed at least
eight hours sleep between trips.
This would have been impossible
for the students were forced to
operate on a closer schedule than
the bus company would have al­lowed.
Superintendent of Organiza­tions,
Bob Lynn, announced to
the group that he is organizing a
committee to help those organi­zations
which need help in fur­thering
their aims on the Auburn
campus.
Macey Johnson, superintendent
of intramural sports, reported
that the Fall Football League has
already been set up, and that his
committee is currently trying to
the school whereby students will
be able to use the facilities of the
student activities building on the
weekends.
The Public Relations Superin­tendent,
Bob Long, reported on
the planned meeting between the
student leaders of Tech and Au­burn
before the football game,
and discussed a possible system of
tours, both guided and self-con­ducted,
to be made available to
visitors to the campus. Phil O'-
Berry, superintendent of student^
welfare, discussed sanitary con­ditions
on and around the Au­burn
campus, including the near­by
eating places and rooming
houses.-
WSGA President, Judy Lock-ridge,
who is also the superinten­dent
of women's affairs, reported
that the "Big Sister" program is
in the process of organization in
the women's dorms, and that dor­mitory
elections have been plan­ned.

Sale Of Football
Tickets Hits New
High For Auburn
By Kennie Holmes
WAJR EAGLE has echoed
through the Auburn Plains
with great force for many
years, but according to this
year's ticket sales, it will ring
out more loudly than ever be­fore.
Statistics show that tic­ket
sales have reached an all-time
high with five sales days
remaining.
The sale of 1957 guest football
tickets is as follows:
The Auburn vs-. Georgia- game;
was a complete sellout before the
season opened, as were the Au­burn
vs Georgia Tech and Au4
burn vs Alabama games. There
are less than 5,000 tickets left for
sale to the Kentucky and Florida;
games being played at API,
Plenty of guest tickets are left
for all other games.
Sixty - five hundred tickets
were sold to the Tennessee-game
played in Knoxville. This was: a
new record since it's the-fjjrst
time that many tickets have^ieeii
The sale of student ticket*
to the football games will end

sold for a game over 125 miles
from the campus. Knoxville is
better than 300 miles from Au­burn.
Demands for alumni tickets to
the Georgia Tech game were so
great that all orders after July 15
had to be sent back. Three hund­red
orders for the Alabama game
were refunded.
Tickets are on sale in the East
wing of Cliff Hare Stadium. A
number of student tickets for the
Alabama, Georgia, and Georgia
Tech are still on sale. There is an
abundance of student tickets to
the remaining games.
Superintendent Of Organizations Asks
To Meet With All Club Presidents
Bob Lynn, superintendent of
organizations, has made an ap­peal
for all presidents of student
organizations other than social
fraternities, sororities and relig­ious
groups to come to the Gen­eral
Activities room in the Union
Building between 3 and 5 o'clock
at their earliest convenience. The
purpose of this visit is to go
through the clubs' files, bring
them up to date, and plan a fu­ture
meeting of all club presi­dents
to discuss the problems con­fronting
their clubs.
According to Lynn, some of the
v-
ONE OF THE NEWEST Majorettes with the API March­ing
Band, Connie Cotton poses in the new uniform for the
baton-twirlers. Connie, a freshman in elementary education,
hails from Atlanta and we hope there is no doubt in anyone's
mind as to whom she will be cheering for come October 19.
State Offers X-ray
Free To Students
"Not nearly so many students
have taken advantage of the X-ray
this year as did last year,"
Mr. Henry Bush, operator of the
mobile unit here at Auburn an­nounced.
One possible explanation of­fered
is that many are under the
mistaken impression that they
may go only at the appointment
time specified on the schedule
given to all students at registra­tion.
Students may go at their
own convenience and are excused
from class if they have a conflict.
Cancer, tuberculosis, and va­rious
forms of heart disease can
be discovered by the X-ray, and
notices will be received by those
whose pictures warrant suspic­ions.
The mobile unit is a public
service offered by the state of
Alabama to Auburn students at
no cost and everyone is urged to
take advantage of this opportu­nity.
Students may get X-rays any.
weekday until Friday, Oct. 11.
clubs now listed as campus or­ganizations
have been active in
name only. An all-out effort will
be made to distinguish between
clubs aspiring to fulfill duties
listed in their constitution and
those clubs which neglect these
duties. An effort also will be
made to inform the student body
of all club policies, practices, and
activities; thereby creating more
interest among students in be­longing
to a club best suited for
them.
Any new club wishing to ob­tain
a charter should see Bob
Lynn and get the necessary in­formation
to organize properly.
A probationary period of one year
will be set up for all new clubs.
At the end of this period, assum­ing
the club has progressed prop­erly
and conducted itself in a fa­vorable
manner, a charter will be
issued and the club will become
permanent.
Dolphin Tryouts
Tryouts for the Dolphin Club
will be held Monday evening
at 6:15 in the Alumni Gym. Both
boys and girls who are interest-ed
in participating are urged to
attend. Those who, because of
flu or other illness, are not
able to take part in tryouts at
this time are requested to stop
by and register so that they
may tryout later.

Infirmary Reports
80 Flu Patients
According to the lastest reports
available to The Plainsman 80
cases of Asiatic flu have been ad­mitted
to Drake Infirmary. Dr.
Morgan W. Brown, director of
student health, states that at
least that many more persons
have been returned to their
homes.
Reportedly, the n u m b e r o f
cases should rise somewhat for
the remainder of this week while
a slight decrease is anticipated
for next week. Records show that
Asiatic flu generally runs its
course within two weeks and
from there begins a decrease.
The supply of flu vaccine which
is slated for arrival in mid-Oct­ober
is still on order and will be
disseminated as quickly as pos­sible.
Any student having flu symp­toms

For 2 Tomorrow
In Hare Stadium
By Jay Grandy
Plainsman Sports Writer
The Tigers will open their
'57 home season tomorrow
when the Chattanooga Mocca­sins,
a power among small col­leges,
invade Cliff Hare Sta­dium
at 2 p. m.
Although the Mocs may be
considered a breather by some,
they annually give the SEC teams
a battle. Last fall while losing to
UT 42-20, they scored more points
against the Nation's No. 1 defen­sive
team than any other team
including Auburn and Tech.
The Tiger-Moc series is a
young one, the two teams having
met but four times with the War
Eagles victorious in all four en­counters.
In '55 when the Tigers
had one of their greatest teams,
which defeated Tech 14-12, the
Mocs threw a scare into the
Plainsmen, losing 15-6 as Fob
James made two long touchdown
runs.
Coach A. C. "Scrappy" Moore,
in his 26th year at UC, missed the
Moc's first game this season, be­ing
in the hospital for an appen­dectomy.
Nevertheless, 4hey came
through in fine style toi-defeat the
Jacksonville (Ala.) Teachers Col­lege
15-7. While the Tigers were
in Knoxville, the Mocs. fought
Abilene Christian to a fe-6 tie to
bring a record. of one win and
one tie into tomorrow's game.
Moore believes that this team is
better than last year's, but they
have their .annual lack of depth
problem.
Their strongest point is the
backfield w h e r e quarterback
John Green and . halfback Bill
Butler are returning stars. But­ler,
a 180-lb. junior, is avvery fast
break-away runner. Last season
he was the leading ground gain­er
and scorer with a 4.7 average
and 30 points. In the first two
games this season he has played
outstanding ball.
Green, also a junior, operates
the T-formation very' effectively
and rates as a superb passer.
Against UT last season he riddled
their defense with passes, and this •
year he has continued to confuse
opponents. Against Jacksonville
he completed 13 of 21 passes, one
being a TD, and he threw for the
Mocs only score late in the game
with Abilene.
The Tigers, having no major
injuries against UT, are strong
favorites, but with a possible loss
in spirit after last week, the
Mocs could make tomorrow a
long afternoon.
Pharmacy Party
Phi Delta Chi . and Kappa
Epsilon pharmacy fraternities
are sponsoring a party for all
pharmacy students. The meet­ing
will be held in the Blake
Lounge in Miller Hall Tuesday,
Oct. 8 at 7 p.m. The purpose of
this meeting is to enable the
member of these fraternities to
welcome new pharmacy stu­dents
to Auburn.
Players Produce Importance Of Being Ernest'
"The Importance of Being Er­nest,"
a satire on British nobility
and clergy, by Oscar Wilde, was
presented last night by the Au­burn
Players at the Player's The­ater.
Performances are on tap for
tonight and tomorrow night.
Sparkling wit and excellent sit­uations
typify the comedies. of
Wilde, an Irish dramatist. While
considered a classic, "The Impor­tance
of Being Ernest" has been
extremely stylized, achieving hu­mor
in costuming and staging.
The fast-moving action of this
three-act play deals with the as­pirations
of John Worthington,
played by Robert Knowles, to the
hand of Gwendolyn Fairfax, en­acted
by Faye Hakansan, daugh­ter
of Lady Bracknell, Mary Ann
Gainey.
Objections are raised to the
proposed marriage because Wor­thington
was found in a handbag
at Victoria Station and has no in­formation
concerning his paren­tage.
In the closing action, he dis­covers
who his parents are and
the audience will discover why
it is so important to, be "Ernest.'
Included in the cast are Harry
Eggard as Algernon Moncrieff,
Sandra Hanby as Miss Prism,
Nealy Inlow as Dr. Chasuble, and
Madge Richardson as Cecily Car-dew.
The butlers, Lane and Mari-man
are played by George Mc-
Williams and Wayne Lacy.
Robert Knowles directs the
comedy which will be presented
on television Tuesday, October 8,
at 8 o'clock over Chanel 7
/"The Importance of Being Er­nest"
is the Fall Road Show of
the Auburn Players and will be
presented in Dadeville, October 6;
Montgomery, October 16; Camp
Hill, November 7; and Opelika,
November 22.
THREE MEMBERS of the Auburn Players are caught by
the photographer as they wait their cue to go onstage for the

Phi Delta Kappa
Meets To Plan
For Coming Year
By Katha Lee Morton
Plainsman Staff Writer
Wednesday night marked
the first 1957-58 meeting of
API's Phi Delta Kappa hono­r
a r y education fraternity. The
Phi Delta Kappa's gathered
to discuss t h e plans for their
programs, projects, and com­mittee
assignments for the
coming year.
Dr. J. Curtis Half, Auburn's
most recent addition to the edu­cation
staff, spoke to the frater­nity
on developing a program of
business education at Auburn.
Dr. Hall is a graduate of Duke
University. He stated a definite
need for leadership in business
education in high school because
of the tremendous growth in the
number of office job openings in
the south. Dr. Hall praised the
research that has been accom­plished
in this field, but said that
much still needs to be done. In
conclusion, Dr. Hall pointed out
the concept of service that busi­ness
education brings to students,
businessmen, the general com­munity
and even the nation.
Phi Delta Kappa, whose API
chapter recognizes 278 members,
presents three aspects:
• The professional, the fraternal
and the honorary. The purpose of
th,e .organization is to promote
"free public "education, essential to
the development of a democracy,
through the continuing interpre­tation
of their ideals of research,
service and leadership. Their aim
is to translate these ideals into a
program of action to suit the
needs of education.
Very high standards are the
qualifications for membership in­to
the h o n o r a r y organiza­tion.

Plainsman Feature Writer
The first Plainsman staff, form­ed
in 1922, was composed of. ap­proximately
nine Auburn students.
The number of editions was few
but still the motto: "to foster the
Auburn spirit" was begun.' The
college newspaper grew. In 1924
31 separate editions came off the
press.
Hugh G. Grant, who came to
Auburn around 1923, established
the journalism department at .Au­burn.
He taught only two sections
in journalism — both of which
were attended by members . of
The Plainsman staff. He went to
great lengths to aid the newspaper
staff in making good their efforts.
By 1925 The Plainsman was well
established as a leading Auburn
publication.
In 1926 the staff was able to
increase the size of the paper
from six to seven columns and
with an increase in length, make
the paper regular newspaper
style. This was the first year that
The Plainsman was printed in
Auburn. Before that, the printing
had been done in Montgomery,
where the nearest printing facili­ties
were located.
In 1927 the first cartoon appear­ed
on the front page of The
Plainsman, thus making it the
first college newspaper to print
work of this sort. In this • same
year the editor of The Plains­man,
S. H. Lynne, was given the
distinct honor of having the Nejv
York Times reprint an editorial
which he had written. This w?is
the second college editorial re­printed
in the history of tlje
Times.
During the early years of pub­lication,
The Plainsman was sold
on a subscription basis ($2.50 per
year) and distributed to the stu-fraternity.
Those eligible for
membership must be graduate or
undergraduate male students in
residence above the sophomore
year. Male members of the 7 fac­ulty,
whose interests are pri­marily
in the field of public edu­cation,
are also eligible, i

ZJnere & more than size
to look for in diamonds
When someone attempts to sell you a diamond on the basis
of size only . . . beware! Quality is far more important to
you than mere size. For it's quality that assures brillance
and beauty and, of course, value. You may feel you know
absolutely nothing about diamonds, but Ware's will be hap­py
to take the time to explain how you may be sure you
are getting TRUE VALUE for every dollar you invest. Let
Ware's Jewelry explain how "Ware's Loose Stone System"

A
m Auburn ROTC Staff Member Tells
Of Intelligence Duty In Moscow
"After six months of it, I could
have cut my throat!" That was
and is the sentiment of Chief
Yeoman Chester B. Stout, U. S.
Navy, who volunteered for Na­val
intelligence duty in Moscow,
Russia, a few years ago.
Now pulling duty with the
Naval ROTC at API, Stout, who
has completed 20 years with the
Navy, said, "I requested the as­signment.
It was given me, but
man, when it was concluded I
was overjoyed! It's fantastic the
way things are over there!"
It is said that sailors get to
see the world. In fact Navy re­cruiting
posters proclaimed that
fact at about the same time Stout
enlisted in 1937. He has seen the
world too and not just through
a porthole. He has served with
the fleet and on naval stations
around the globe and from near
the top, Moscow, to the very bot­tom,
Antarctica. For him, the
one experience that caps them all
for sheer oppressiveness was his
18 months with the Naval At­tache
at the U. S. Embassy in
Moscow.
Included in his duty stints
were war patrols in four subma­rines
in the Pacific during World
War II. Aboard the subs Stout
knew he was a free man, but in
Russia he was aware that his
movements were curtailed due to
Soviet restrictions.
Stout will talk readily about
his war patrols with other Navy
men. This is not true for the civi­lian,
however. The chief had
rather discuss his sojourn in Rus­sia
in such a case.
His impressions of the Soviet
Union, must be about what any
average American would have
after living there. "There is a
shortage of everything it seems,"
he says. "When one can find con­sumer
goods, they are priced al­most
out of sight. And. at that
they are in most cases inferior
in quality. I have little reason
to believe things have changed."
In contrast to other consumer
goods, the chief believes the Rus­sian
television and itadio sets
that he saw were better than
American ones in general. At the
same time those sets were al­most
impossible to obtain be­cause
they were not mass pro­duced.
Too, only the privileged
few in the upper hierarchy get
such luxuries. "Where is their
so-called classless society," Stout
wondered. He added that the
Russians had three-dimensional
movies before the American pub­lic
did.
Concerning the recent Russian
purges, Stout says Americans
cannot count on anything parti­cular
because of them. "Follow­ing
the old communist line, Rus­sian
policy is flexible. They will
take a step backward now in
order to take two forward later."
Tricky Russian propaganda was
one thing that amazed him. "The
Soviet propagandists told the
people the reason the personnel
at the American embassy wore
such good clothes was to make a
big impression. They further told
them that our clothes were issued
to us when we left the United
States. When we came home we
had to turn them back to the
State Department. If we had
damaged them in any way we
would be severely punished. That
was their propaganda line."
Other things that impressed
the chief about Russia were: (1)
The one sunny day in seven; (2)
That the latest railway pullman
was an "International" car of
1905 vintage; (3) That news of
deaths, fires, accidents or crimes
never appeared in the news­papers;
(4) The government-run
Black Market was designed to
keep the people poor; (5) The
vicious, system of people report­ing
on each other, and (6) The
women street cleaners.
He thought the customs of­ficials,
porters, railway and cus­toms
personnel were completely
honest.
Stout was assigned to the Na­val
ROTC unit at Auburn after
being on Operation Deep Freeze
near the South Pole. He has been
here since April. "Auburn is
home now, I was born in Texas
and reared in, Jackson, Tenn."

About Operation Deep Freeze,
Stout remarked, "Antarctica in
summer is warmer than Russia
in winter. While we had ice and
snow around us on Deep Freeze,
the feeling of oppression I ex­perienced
in Moscow was lack­ing."
When he completes his assign­ment
with the API NROTC, he
may take his discharge from the
Navy. His object in doing this
will be to gain a college degree.
Now he is enrolled in Auburn's
School of Science and Literature
as a sophomore. He wants a
double major in English and
mathematics.
Chief Stout's wife, the former
Shirley Carradine, Baton Rouge,
La., and their two sons believe
that the not-so-old salt can ac­complish
anything he sets out to
do. All of the exploits of his dis­tinguished
career have not been

handling of life's situations his
family has faith in the man who

Elysium Revisited By No. 30556-Ph 13
U-J.
The Auburn Engineer is looking for a
place to stay—again.
Last spring they were told that their
office space in Ramsay Hall would be used
by instructors. They were told that they
would have to find a new place to stay.
After years of providing engineering
news for students and alumni, and perhaps
more importantly, serving as a good will
and publicity outlet for the School of En­gineering—
the Engineer suddenly found
itself looking for a new home.
There was no room in Ramsay, so the
staff members of the Auburn Engineer
moved into a conference room in the Union
Building. They continued to publish a
magazine each month even though 'their'
conference room in the Union doubled as
a study hall. Students walked in and out
as the Engineer staff tried to get their
work done—and supplies were missing.
Now even the poor facilities of the
conference room are being taken away
from the Engineer. The room is needed for
Union Activities instead of Engineering
School activities. This is as it should be,
but the Engineer needs an office.
We do not believe that it is the res­ponsibility
of the Union Committee to find
an office for the Engineer. Nor is it the
responsibility of the staff members to find
a place for themselves. We believe that the
School of Engineering should provide for
its engineering magazine.
If the administration of the School of
Engineering feels that the Auburn Engi­neer
no longer serves its purpose or is not
worth the space it would take up—then by
all means do away with the magazine. If
the Engineer is worth the effort—then find
a place for it.
AUBIM HAYFRS
[TRYOUTS
Tigers Best In SEC . . .
It was a cold and wet football after­noon
last Saturday at Shield's-Watkins
Field. But it was a jubilant Auburn crowd
that milled around the water-soaked play­ing
field long after the final gun had ended
the game of the week in the Southeastern
Conference.
This was the game the experts had
predicted would decide the conference
championship, and a record number of
War Eagle fans journeyed up to Knoxville
to witness the sweet victory.
The Athletic Association reported that
it sold 6,500 student and guest tickets to
the game—a record number for a game be­ing
played so far away from the campus.
Perhaps not all Auburn fans who
bought tickets braved the weather, bad
for driving and bad for watching, to take
in the game. Even so, the hundreds of
Tiger fans who did go made more than
enough noise for the 40,000 Tennessee fans
who saw little to cheer about the whole
afternoon. J t was a great day in Knoxville.
Now that the excitement over last
week has died down a bit, all thoughts are
turned to the remainder of the season.
Tennessee was the big game—now the road
is open for' an undefeated season,-an SEC
championship, and national footbaH pres-tige.
Shug Jordan's boys showed everyone
that they have what it takes to become
conference champions. They were the best
team in this neck of the woods last Sat­urday—
and there's no reason to believe
they won'f still be the best for miles
around corfie the end of the season.
Of course some 'big' games remain to
be played. The biggest of the 'big' and the
game more Tiger fans would rather we
won than any other is against Georgia
Tech.
You can bet the Tigers will be ready
for Tech come October 19. But there are
other Saturdays and other good SEC op­ponents
who'll be hoping for an upset
win over Auburn.
Two years ago a scrappy Tulane team
defeated a highly favored Auburn foot­ball
squad and kept us from going to the
Sugar Bowl.
Let's give the team our support every
weekend. They need the spirit and en­thusiasm
of the student body to win con­sistently.
It's the Tulanes we'll have to watch
for. They're the real threat to the best in
the SEC—to Auburn.
.. Band Is, Too!
Auburn won twice last Saturday in
Knoxville. The band won, too.
They looked sharp in their new uni­forms,
the marching and formations were
good, and their music was never better.
The band practiced hard to put on such
a fine show at the Tennessee game. They
came back to school two weeks early to be­gin
practice, and they devote a great deal
of time each week to get ready for the
coming Saturday.
We have a top-notch band doing for
us musically what the football team does
pig-skin wise.
A vote of appreciation from us stu­dents
to Bodie Hinton, and his assistants
and to all the band members.

Date Bureau-Latest Thing?
As concerned as we are today
in the South about the segrega­tion
vs. intergration mess, there is
arising another, even more serious
problem that demands a prior so­lution.
The Daily Texan, Texas
University's newspaper, reports
two jazz concerts scheduled at
that school have been cancelled.
Both bands have Negro perform­ers
who fear the rising resent­ment
being shown their race
throughout the South. Or, to be
more specific:
The two famous jazz pro­grams,
both featuring a num­ber
of Negro entertainers said
they were not appearing in
the South or border states
because of "unrest" in these
areas over racial intergration.
This, and other occurences in
the past year would tend to indi­cate
that our primary problem in
the South is whether to be gov­erned
by the distraught decisions
of a mob, or the ordered proces­ses
of law. The answer is ob­vious.
But how have we allowed
ourselves to become so hysterical
that such a question should have
to be answered?
According to the Associated
College Press, college-supervised
date bureaus may be the latest
thing in the campus social struc­ture.

that "teaching can achieve professional
status only through the efforts and accom­plishments
of those who are engaged in
this field of service."
He presented five steps for educators
to follow in attaining this goal.
(1) Objective and penetrating self- ap­praisal.
(2) Adoption and enforcement of
a code of professional ethics.
(3) Reorganization and revitalization
of teacher associations.
(4) Improvement of in-service educa­tion.
(5) Bold and constructive leadership.
Professor Chandler criticized the my­riad
of teaching organizations and associa­tions.
"There are over 500 national and
regional associations and over 100 on the.
state level," he said. "We need a unified
professional association, stiff requirements
for admission, and de-emphasis of welfare
objectives. This would get results that con­stituting
ourselves as a pressure group and
pleading for more money will never
achieve.
"Can you imagine the American Medi­cal
Association or the American Bar As­sociation
trying to sell membership as does
the National Education Association and the
American Federation of Teachers? This
practice is disgraceful and it retards pro­fessional
development of teaching. Then
too, both of these national groups contin­ually
shout salaries, tenure, and other wel­fare
provisions. This robs us of pur dig­nity,
preludes real public respect, and ac­complishes
nothing except an occasional
pittance or a sop."
He also cited the need for a univer­sally
recognized code of ethics that could
be enforced by a legally constituted ethics
committee set up by the state legislature.

Second Mistake
One day a farmer's hired hand
received fifty cents too much in
his pay envelope, but he didn't
say a word.
During the week the farmer
noticed his mistake, and on the
next payday deducted fifty cents.
"Excuse me sir," said the hired
man, "I'm fifty cents short this
week."
"You didn't complain last week
when I overpaid you fifty cents."
"No sir," said the hired man,

then it's time to say something."

Letters To
The Editor
Student Thanks
Infirmary Personnel
I wish to take this opportunity
to thank all the doctors, nurses,
and other personnel at Drake In­firmary,
who took such good care
of myself and others during the
flu-catching period last week.
Everyone did a very creditable
job, especially the nurses. These
poor souls sure put up with a lot
and did a very efficient job on
anything they started.
Thank you Mrs. Gothard for
giving me those baths when
I had that high fever and for ap­pearing
worried when the fever
would not go down. Thank you
Mrs. France for your smile in
the mornings and for making my
bed and bringing my meals.
Thank you Mrs. Shackley for your
efficiency and good humor.
Thank all of. you for the 12
shots you gave me, (I believe
every nurse there gave me at least
one shot and some more than
that) and not one hurt very
much although I still have to sit
down carefully.
I even broke one cardinal rule
and had a girl visit me in the
lobby and all I got was a "young
man, get upstairs," plus a few
other well chosen words by the
head nurse. (She is real nice, too,
but I must have caught her on
a bad day.)
I think poor Doc Brown had to
get out of bed one night to come
see about me—
To all of those—Norman the
janitor, the nurses, the doctors and
staff, a very warm and sincere
thank you for all you did. I am
sure I speak for many other pa­tients
who went through the same
illness I did. Oliver Chastain
Student female No. 30556-phl3
stepped nervously into the office
of FemLdr-Sec 8 (Female Leader
of the Eighth Section). Remem­bering
article 17-30B, she stopped
to assume the correct degree of
casualness, then approached the
great black desk at the far end
of the room. She stopped before
the desk and began the time-hon­ored
ritual. "You are older than
I," she said. "You have more ex­perience
than I. Thence you are
wiser than I."
FemLdr-Sec8 glanced in her
direction and responded, "But I
and all others like myself are
here to guide and advise you. Al­low
me to serve you now."
The formalities over, FemLdr-
Sec8 eased her chair back a little
from the desk and pushed the
concealed button that activated
the Autosteno. "Well, Phl3, what
have you to tell me?" she asked
quietly. They took each other
well, so, in accordance with Par33
AscParlns, they were allowed to
call one another by the last por­tion
of their designations. Sec.8
assumed her best professional
mother smile.
"I am here for the protection
and guidance of 30542-ph3, my
roommate and my friend," said
phl3.
"Sit down if you wish." phl3
dropped into a white leather of­fice
chair across from Sec8 and
began to study the white drap­eries
that covered a large window
overlooking the dozen or so build­ings
of Section Eight. FemLdr-
Sec8 shifted her bulk slightly
and leaned forward, her elbows
resting on the edge of the desk.
"Now, dear," she said, "why is it
that ph3 needs our advice?"
The girl glanced away from
the draperies to concentrate on
her feet. She began to speak
rapidly. "You know," she said,
"that ph3 is one of my dearest
and oldest friends. I would never
never do even the slightest thing
that might in any way hurt her.
Why, everyone knows that we
have been friends since our orien­tation
and adjustment days and
"We are all friends here, phl3,"
Sec8 broke in. "We all love and
admire one another, because we
wouldn't be here if we didn't.
Your friendship with ph3 is the
same friendship that we all feel
toward one another." She glanc­ed
sharply at phl3. "Isn't that
true, dear?"
Phi3 paled slightly and caught
her breath. "Oh yes, that is ex­actly
the way it is. The words
poured out rapidly and spilled
over one another. "That is just
exactly the way it is. We are all
friends here. I love everyone just
the same, and that's why I'm here
today—for the good of all of us."
She had very nearly admitted a
special friendship. She would
have to be very careful.
"Of course, dear. "Sec8 lean­ed
back in her chair, smiling
again. "Now tell me what advice
our friend ph3 must have."
"Well, for the past few days,
she has been saying things."
"Things?'
"Yes, things about the group
and people and even," her voice
dropped slightly, "The Organiza­tion.
Last night, she told me and
ph7 and rh5 and three others that
BY MERCER HELMS
she didn't even like ComFood-
Cent or even the food or any­thing.
And today, she went on,
a little out of breath, "I even saw
her take two salads."
"Two?"
"Yes, two salads, and then I
knew that for the good of all of
us, what my duty must be," phl3
finished, lower lip trembling,
eyes shining.
The office was very quiet for
a moment before Sec8 spoke.
"Yes," she said deliberately, "You
have done all of us a good serv­ice.
We will have to invite ph3 to
attend friendship meeting next
Tuesday. Firmness is often pain­ful,
but when advice and guid­ance
are needed, we must cast
aside our own feeling. You have
acted in a true and faithful man­ner.
You," she said dramatically,
"have contributed to the common
good." She stood up, indicating
that the interview was over.
Phl3 jumped to her feet,
blushing. She assumed the neces­sary
studied casualness, and be­gan
to intone the leave-taking
ritual. "I have sought advice, and
through the virtues of your age,
experience, and wisdom, have re­ceived
my instruction."
"I and all others like myself
are grateful for your trust. May
we always be present to guide
and advise you and all others
like you."
Phi3 left the office glowing
with pride. She had been able to
contribute to the common good,
and further the existence of the
only way of life she had ever
known.
THE PASSING STREAM
The Newest Foreign Policy
BY ANNE RIVERS
As if undergraduate tribula­tions
were not enough without
foreign intervention, we have
now been besieged with a new
and exciting offering from over­seas
that tops even rampant
communism for sheer thorough­ness
and staying power. Mas­querading
under the modest ap­pellation
of Asian flu, this
little malady is steadily gaining
a special place in the hearts and
respiratory systems of countless
Americans.
From the looks of things, it's
as firmly entrenched in Ameri­can
culture as pizza and sports
cars, to name two other European
contributions that have survived
the fad stage. And, like other
imports from the old country,
it's enjoying a period of fashion­able
popularity that won't wane
until we can mass produce a big­ger
and better variety here at
home.
The disease itself is a rather
mediocre, nondescript affair with
all the best qualities of a good
old south Alabama head cold, a
good old south Alabama hang­over,
and a good old south Ala­bama
case of too much corn
bread and field peas. Nothing
dashing and exotic about it in
practice; people rarely die of it
unless forced to do so for the
sake of. appearances.
I believe that its big selling
point is its name, Asian flu, which
has about it a faint, tantalizing
aura of temple bells and moon­light
and the Ganges. Americans
gobble up atmosphere. You might
call it a disease intended solely
for incorrigible romanticists like
myself^ (Except that I'd much
rather contract something obs-scure
and tidy, with the emphasis
on pale, genteel wasting away
and a lot of curable pain to be
borne with noble dignity. Asian
flu, temple bells notwithstanding
is messey.)
Consider the effects on a col­lege
campus of an epidemic of,
say, tropical malaria. What a
heroic thing to contract. It's rem­iniscent
of orchids and fever
jungles. How stimulating to
bravely set your teeth against
racking chills and burning fever,
murmuring, "Oh, its nothing—
and I must press on until this
zoology notebook is done." This
is stuff that legends are made of.
Or a seige of the Black Plague.
A spectacle worthy of. complete
coverage in "Life," a complete
series, with color photographs, of
a student body carrying; on de­spite
the shireks and convulsions
of fellow students.
In the face of all this, Asian flu
seems pretty tame. But wje're ap­parently
stuck with it," so we
might as well exploit some of its
more conspicuous characteristics.
Sneezes, for example, could be
made double resonant and twice
as effective. Chills could be ma­neuvered
into epics of teeth-chattering
tortue. Fever could
produce some screaming night­mares
and fancies, and the ac­companying
pain, if any, could
be sufficient motivation for some
masterful shrieks, groans, and
similar histrionics.
This is not to say that we must
actually suffer such torture. But
rarely do we have the opportunity
to entertain a full-scale foreign
epidemic. Never let it be said that
we Americans have become so
immune to romance that we lack
the imagination to capitalize on
a good thing. If we can't have
something rare and intriguing, at
least we can make something
splendid out of what we do have.
Are we going to let the U. of A.
out suffer us?
A COLUMN
Auburn Is Mostly People
As Auburnites, we see ourselves
in college and reluctantly agree
that the several reasons below
often account for the fact:
(1) Simple desire to get away
from home. (Really Simple).
(2) Desire to do what every­body
else is doing. (Very accu­rate.)
(3) Fear of facing the business
world degree-less. (Most ob­vious).
Number one reason largely ap­plies
to females. By the time
they are ready for college, the
men in their lives are ready for
them to go. Auburn, the Marriage
Mart welcomes them. (And there
is something prodigal about wom­en,
anyway.) To the males, the
campus is sentimentally The
Liveliest Village of the Plains,
what with their recent discov­eries
of women and alcohol.
Those in the number two group
are potentially great scientists-physicists,
having already ac­quainted
themselves with the
Brownian Movement. This group
includes, by choice, both sexes.
The last group is the one most
nearly approaching seriousness.
(It is thus restricted to the males)
and it is certainly most evident.
Not quite so evident, though, is
the tendancy for The Men On
The Outside to consider some
sort of certificate with schrolls
and curly-cues and Latin quips
as adequately representative of
our achievement. Many of our
abilities, our traits, are never giv­en
a chance, are replaced secon­dary
to the certificate.
In spite of our appearance, our
ambitions, our personalities, John
Q. Public wants to see and to
touch that certificate. Our best
self-selling device is the diploma.
Number three group is com­posed
of people with poor incen­tives
for education, poor means
for seeing that college is merely a
phase in life. After college, our
educational "worries" do not end.
We have just been exposed to
them, and only slightly so for
the most part. There is nothing
strange in the belief that our edu­cation
should be purposefully
endless. We are aware that we
learn as long as our minds are
alert, particularly the "practi­cal."
This "practical" application
is often the extent to which we
take our post-college education.
Upon graduation, we (statisti­cally)
slip comfortably into the
cenvenient social pattern, self-centered
and confident. Our in­terests
in politics are nil (little
in college has introduced us to
politics) unless we can benefit
from intervention of some sort,
and we seldom bother with civic
obligations. If, in looking back,
our college experiences have
been valuable, it is because we
have been boosted ahead by its
influences, not because college—
classroom or otherwise—has im­proved
our thinking or stimulated
our curiosity or increased our in­tellectual
activity. We find that
we prefer security to creativity,
the latter being too difficult for
us or too foreign.
BY CARLISLE T0WERY
These, then, are fallacies of the
attitudes of The Men On The
Outside and the deficiences of
our thinking. We, the students,
are not reprehensible. Our limited
abilities do not solely belong to
us. We are not knowingly self-centered
and confident; we do
willfully disregard the values
that we later wish for. We are
just not acquainted with our­selves.
And our professors are ,,
certainly not acquainted with us.
We are members of a group, a big
group, to him and are something
of an obstacle. We are about the
same to ourselves. We know our­selves
by the trends about us to
which we feel obligated to con­form.
We are only slightly in­terested
in the endurance of an
education; we are not sure, we
have not been convinced that in­dividual
thought and persever­ance
are later profitable.
Compare ourselves to the
tramp who read religiously the
numbers on the road signs but
could not comprehend the words.
He always knew how far he was
going but never where. We, as
Auburnites, are in a better state,
of course. We can see as far
ahead of us as the degree (about
the distance of a nose) and can
measure the distance to it in
hours and quarters. We can see
the obvious, at any rate.
If we represent the American
student, then he is fogged in com­placency,
bogged in apathy, and
beaten with the whip of conform­ity.
But where may we place the
blame? <

Numerous Colorful Bui Unproven Tales
Surround Origin Of 'War Eagle' Legend
By Bryant Castellow
Plainsman Feature Writer
War-r-r-r-r Eagle.
Now that football is in the air and Auburn supporters are
on the prowl again, you'll hear this famous battle cry from
early in the morning till the wee small hours of the night.
What does it mean? Auburn
supporters who become hoarse
screaming it don't know, yet they
wouldn't trade it for 1,000 ele­phants
or a million "Roll Tide's."
Everyone on the plains from
the orange-topped freshman to
the bald-headed professor shouts
"War Eagle" with equal fervor
—but no one can prove the actual
origin of the world famous yell.
Years ago an Auburn professor
stated that it was a battle cry
uttered by the ancient Saxons
when they fought. The cry was
in praise of the mighty vultures
that soared over the scene of the
battle, waiting to devour the
dead and consequently known as
"War Eagles."
Another story has it that it
came from the headdress of Au­burn
cadets when the accent was
strong on military life on the cam­pus
following the war between
the states. One other story in
circulation tells of a pep rally
held in Langdon Hall during the
triumphant era of Coach Mike
Donahue. After a spirited talk, a
zealous student from South Caro­lina
sprang from his bench and
screamed "War Eagle." The next
day Auburn won a glorious vic­tory
and the same yell was deaf­ening.
Auburn's real live "War Eagle"
came into fame' in November of
1930. Several miles from town a
giant golden eagle swooped down
from the skies on a flock of turk­eys
feeding in a pea patch, hop­ing
for a kill. Instead the big bird
became entangled in the pea vines
and was found by a farmer.
No one knows for sure how the
big bird got to Alabama. It was
a native of the Rocky Mountains
and the western states and it
would seem an act of God that
he would be captured a short dis­tance
outside of Auburn.
A group of students bought the
huge bird for $10 and presented
him to the "A" Club at a mass
meeting preceeding the Thanks­giving
Day game in Columbus,
Georgia, with South Carolina.
Naturally, the bird was named
"War Eagle."
On Thanksgiving Day, Auburn
went on the field the underdog.
The Tigers hadn't won a loop
game in three years and the bat­tle
with the Gamecocks was ex­pected
to be just another Tiger
loss.
But instead of losing, Auburn
ran wild. A couple of backs
named Lindley Hatfield and Jim­my
Hitchcock ran through, over
and around South Carolina for a
miraculous 25-7 victory.
No one knows for sure what
5—THE PLAINSMAN Friday, October 4,1957
AUBURN STUDENTS join voices in a big "War Eagle"—
only one of the many cries that will reverberate over the
campus this weekend, starting with the Knock Nooga pep
rally tonight and ending with the last cries at the game to­morrow.

The same story—but in reverse
Auburn vs. Tennessee, 1956 and 1957...
KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Sept. 28—Wet, cold, front-row com-parisons
of a battle that was a battle—Auburn versus Ten­nessee,
1957 . . . and one that wasn't—Auburn versus Ten­nessee,
1956 . . . .
"What a difference a day makes . . ." could have been the
most appropriate of many happy (for Auburn) refrains to
echo through the rain-soaked hills of this very, very sad (for
Tennessee) town today.
For, most surely, a day (okay, a year) did make a world
of difference to the two teams that fought fiercely in equally
fierce weather on this day meant for men only.
Go back, if you will, one year. The time: September, 1956.
The place: warm, clear Legion Field in Birmingham. And the
occasion (who from Auburn can forget?): the game, they
said, that could settle right from the start an SEC champion­ship.
It was no contest. Auburn fumbled, Tennessee scooped
'em up for easy touchdowns . . . The Vols were a well-oiled
machine with an experienced operator, the Tigers a cranky
A-model with no driver.
Tigers Favored To Win SEC Crown After Vol Victory
Plainsmen Forget Last Year's Memories
As Depth And Spirit Prove Too Much
By George Wendell
Plainsman Managing Editor
"If at first you don't succeed, try, try again."
The Auburn Tigers proved this statement to be true last
Saturday in Knoxville when they shook off the memories of
last year's defeat by the Vols, and went on to, thoroughly
trounce the Tennesseeans, 7-0.
year the speedy back did not
Auburn lost—as any team should that loses four fumbles
within its 25-yard line. They never recovered from that one,
and finished the year with an unpredicted 7-3 record.
IT RAINED, RAINED AND RAINED
Winning Tennessee—inspired by the victory—gained mo­mentum
and rolled to the conference crown.
That was last year, 1956, ancient history in Auburn books.
Now come back to the present—today, September, 1957.
Different time, different place and weather, but the same oc­casion—
Tennessee, heir apparent to the title, versus jealous,
crown-seeking Auburn.
And this time—to a color-blind observer—it was the same
story. One team fumbled, the other picked 'em up . . . One
team wasn't a team at all, the other was.
But today the "good guys" were in the white jersies
Those were the "bad guys" in the orange.
According to that history book, year of 1956, the good
guys—the winners of Auburn versus Tennessee—stepped to
the head of the SEC class.
History repeat itself? Don't bet on it.

North Auburn Cafe is located on U. S.
Highway 280 one mile from Holiday
Inn toward Opelika.
The game was more of a one­sided
affair than the score indi­cated,
as the Tigers pushed the
Volunteers from one end of the
field to the other. Twice they
were stopped within the Tennes­see
5-yard line. This is the one
place where the Vols of 1957 look­ed
like the Vols of '56.
The game started off. exactly
like last year with the kick-off
going to Tommy Lorino. But this
fumble, but ran for 18 yards be­fore
being brought down.
The only score of the game
came in the second period when
Jerry Wilson blocked a punt to
set the ball on the Tigers' 43-
yard line. From there it took only
thirteen plays to put the ball
over.
Featuring the drive was a ten-yard
aerial from Lloyd Nix to
FULLBACK BILLY ATKINS drives closer to home as a host
of Tennessee Vols are in persuit. Atkins scored the only TD of the
day in the Tiger's 7-0 victory over the Vols.
Wilson. Another outstanding play I ten yard line, was hit, fumbled,
occurred when Nix ran from the and Lamar Rawson recovered for
a four yard gain. From there, it
took Billy Atkins only three plays
to dive over for the touchdown.
The main feature of the game
was the defensive tactics of the
Auburn line. They were contin­ually
in the Tennessee backfield
and repeatedly threw Al Carter
and Bobby Gordon for losses.
It has been reported that Jack
Burkett was in on 35 tackles.
Other stalwarts were Jimmy 'Red'
Phillips, Zeke Smith, James War­ren
and Dan Preseley.
The victory was one of the
sweetest for Auburn in several
years. It ranked with the Plains­men's
wins over Georgia Tech
in 1956, Miami in 1954 and Baylor
in the 1955 Gator Bowl.

Five Teams Tied For Top Position In Conference

Last September, Auburn's experienced team, led by How­ell
Tubbs and Jimmy Phillips, went to Birmingham with a
good chance of upsetting Johnny Majors and his crew. The
result . . . Tennessee 35, Auburn 7.
This September, things were LSU's Bengal Tigers ran wild
different as the men from the
Plains traveled to Knoxville with
several inexperienced men slated
to start their first college game.
The result . . . Auburn 7, Tennes­see
0.
The answer . . . a determined,
well-conditioned squad that re­fused
to say die. The 7-0 score
is no indication of the Tigers'
complete mastery of the Volun­teers,
however, since the only de­partments
statistically that the
Tigers came out on the short end
were punting average and yards
penalized.
Individual stars . . . name a

holes for repeated long gains. In
the line, all were heroes.

two touchdowns and set up an­other

Last Saturday, like the weather, was a dismal one for the Plainsman "experts" as the best
record that could be mustered was a 7-3. An outsider, Bryant Castellow, beat all of the experts
as he picked eight winners. Other outsiders, Jay Grandy, Ronnie Harris and Bo Davidson tied the
Plainsman prognosticators, also, picking seven out of ten. Anyone who thinks he can outguess the
"experts" on this week's gamps should hand in his selections at the Union desk before 5:00.

i1\ Busy Beckwith Sells Tickets, Trout And Tigers
As Newly Appointed Assistant Athletic Director
By Ronnie Harris
Plainsman Sports Writer
Following a tremendous victory over Tennessee last Sat­urday,
Auburn is in the focus of national a t t e n t i o n . The
Plainsmen have not a l w a y s been so fortunate sportswise.
There have been many hard-working people behind Auburn's
surge to national prominance, many of them often being over­looked.
One of these is William
Herbert Beckwith, known to his
friends as Bill. .
Beckwith was named Assistant
to the Director of Athletics, Jeff
Beard, on July 1, 1957. He re­ceived
this promotion after serv­ing
as Sports Publicity Director
quarter in the fall of 1945, he
enlisted in the Navy, and re­mained
in the service until being
discharged in 1948.
Beckwith attended Georgia
Southwestern Junior College for
one year after returning from
F1F1
AUBURN'S SUPER SALESMAN
since 1951. This new official title
will not affect his duties in sports
publicity, but gives him new res­ponsibilities
in the promotion of
ticket sales, public relations, and
assisting Jeff Beard.
Beckwith was born in Atlanta,
Georgia, October 5, 1927. In 1933
he moved to Americus, Ga., and
graduated from high school there.
After attending Auburn for one
service. After this, he returned
to Auburn and finished in 1951.
He is married to the former
Miss Anne Bailey of Mobile, and
they have two boys—Bill Jr., 5,
and Joe, 3.
Too few of us realize, how im­portant
Bill is to Auburn. Where
Auburn athletics are concerned,
he is a walking bureau of infor­mation.

notes or a filing cabinet, he can
tell you the complete history of
every athlete on the campus.
Let none deny that Beckwith is
a super salesman. A favorite prac­tice
of his is softening up fellow
athletic directors by taking them
fishing on some lake around Au­burn.
Picture yourself seated in
the middle of a boat with Beck­with
and Beard at each end. The
combination of Beard's quite per­suasive
way, Beckwith's rapid
fire conversation, along with a
battle with a big bass would drive
an unsuspecting athletic director
crazy.
Another important feature of
Beckwith's is his popularity with
newsmen and radio announcers.
This popularity has reaped big
dividends to Auburn. Since he be­came
sports publicity director in
1951, the school's athletic program
has received much national recog­nition.
Incidentally, Bill says his
biggest thrill came when Wilbur
Hutsell, who was the Athletic Di­rector
in 1951, asked him to serve
as temporary publicity director.
He did such a good job that it
soon became evident to everyone
that there was- no need to search
further. A better man couldn't be
found. ' • .
We are all proud of; pur
pressbox high atop Cliff Hare
Stadium. This is one of the finest
pressboxes in the nation, but we
would not have it were it not for
Beckwith. He argued long and
hard before finally convincing
Jeff Beard on the idea. After ap­propriations
were made it was
Beckwith who directed the archi­tects
in designing the pressbox.
Beckwith's activities are not
limited to Auburn, however. He
is presently vice-president of the
Southeastern Conference sports
publicity group, and has been
their national representative for
the past two years. He is also a
member of the College Athletic
Business Manager's Association.
During track season, as a hobby,
he distributes weekly statistics
and publicity for the Southeast­ern
Conference.
Beckwith loves Auburn, anil
Auburn couldn't have made a
better selection than Bill Beck­with
for assistant athletic: direc­tor.

The warm-up battle for the fraternity touch football sea­son
got under way last Monday night as the 22 fraternity
team managers drew league positions.
According to custom the top four teams from the previous
year in touch football will head the four leagues. SAE, champs
of 1956, appear first on the list of League 1 teams. As runner-up
last year ATO tops League 2. Receiving top billing in Lea­gue
3 is KA with DC leading League 4.
Reviewing scores and performances of last year, major
contests in League 1 should be between SPE, PKA, and PKT,
with ATO and PKP struggling for top honors in League 2.
KA and SN will probably be the ones to watch in League 3
with SAE, AP, and DC fighting in League 4.

Baby Tigers Open Season Monday,
Seek Revenge Against Floridians
By Ronnie McCullars
Plainsman Sports Writer
Looking for revenge the Auburn
frosh eleven will travel to Gaines­ville
Oct. 7, to take on Florida
in the first game of the 1957 sea­son.
The Tiger aggregation suf­fered
at the hands of Florida in
last season's opener by a 25-13
score. This year the frosh boast
a heavy line averaging 203 pounds
and a speedy backfield which is
itching for that Florida paydirt.
With forty four players parti­cipating,
Head Coach Dick Mc-
Gowan had his hands full in pick­ing
a starting team. The starters
for the Florida game will be
Bobby Hodges, LE; Ludwig Goetz,
LT; Jimmy Philpot, LG; Perry
Boykin, C; G. W. Clapp, RG; Ken
Rice, RT; Joe Leichtman, RE; Don
Fuell, QB; Jimmy Pettus, LH;
Wayne Proffitt, RH, and Charlie
Benefield, FB.
All of these boys were picked
on All-State teams in high school.
There are 27 boys from Alabama,
seven from Georgia, three from
Tennessee, two from New Jersey,
two from Illinois, and one each
from Florida and Mississippi.
Because of injuries the two
front running centers are out of
action for the first game, but are
expected to see duty against
Georgia on Oct. 21. Out of com­mission
for the season are tackle,
Billy Wilson, and quarterback,
Coley Cassedy, because of knee
operations.
This season's schedule is Flori­da
at Gainesville, Oct. 7; Georgia
at Athens Oct. 21, and Alabama
in Auburn, on Nov. 4. Last season
Auburn defeated Georgia, tied
Bama, and lost to Florida.
Head Coach Dick McGowan,
along with his assistants, Joe Con-nally,
George Grider, and Buster
Gross, have nothing but praise
for this year's crop of gridders.
McGowan says, "They have un­limited
potential and are the
easiest group we have had to
work with here. The boys are the
recipients of outstanding high
school coaching."
WANTED
A student to drive a car to
New York. The return coach
fare will be paid. Those inte­rested
are asked to contact Mr.

Players Of The Week
In a happy, forgivable sort of way, the Vol-conquering
Auburn Tigers fouled up from the start the first of ten weekly
Plainsman "Player of the Week" selections.
There were nominations aplenty for individual stars who
might have been accorded the honor, but in the end it was
decided—without a doubt—that the tribute should be paid
to the entire 40-man squad which, in the words of backfield
coach Buck Bradberry, "came up here (Knoxville) to do busi­ness
. . . and did it."
Managing Editor George Wendell and Sports Editor Paul
Hemphill—who were at the scene of action to give Plainsman
readers on-the-spot coverage—were constantly changing their
minds on who would be the most outstanding player.

First, it was sophomore halfback Lamar Rawson, who
ran brilliantly behind fine blocking and pounced on a Tiger
fumble at the Vol four-yard line to set up the only touch­down.
Both of the ends—"Red" Phillips and Jerry Wilson— re­ceived
early nominations by busting through the steamrolling
Vol interference and helping bottle up tailbacks Bobby Gor­don
and Al Carter.
Then came newcomers Jackie Burkett and "Zeke" Smith
—who were constantly in the Tennessee backfield—and re­turnee
Billy Atkins, the guy who may have solved "Shug"
Jordan's fullback problem before it really develops.
Bobby Hoppe and Lloyd Nix were considered also for
their outstanding play, defensively and offensively, through­out
the game.
But by the end of the game almost every man who played
had been cited for action beyond the call of duty, so there
was nothing to do but name all 40 of 'em as . . . Players of the
Week.—HEMPHILL.
