Behrman's 'Jant/cJ* Open
COMEDY—The Auburn Players' only summer production
begins tonight at the Players' Theater at 8:15. It is a sophisticated
drawing room comedy.'
Fall Enrollment Expected
To Reach New Record
F u r t h e r fall t e rm enrollment at API is being limited to
s t u d e n t s living w i t h i n t h e S t a t e due to t h e shortage of housi
n g and classroom facilities. Despite that fact a n ew record
h i g h enrollment of 8,700 has been forecast by Registrar
Charles W. Edwards.
The college already is declining
. applications f r o m out-of-atate
students, Mr. Edwards said.
Admission of any more Alabama
students is contingent upon their
showing they have a place to live,
he explained.
Floyd Vallery, API housing coordinator,
said housing facilities
were filled two weeks earlier than
, Jast summer. This is.thexase^des-pite
the fact that about 30ff additional
spaces are available for
men's housing. He said the opening
of Noble Hall for men, the
building of the new Sigma Alpha
Epsilon fraternity house, and construction
of new apartment and
private residential-type housing
accounts for the 300 additional
spaces.
Women's dormitories w e re
filled early in the year and by
April 1 all men's dormitory space
had. been reserved.
Vallery said he hopes Opelika,
Tuskegee, and other n e a r by
places will be able to take care
of additional students.
| In predicting an enrollment
of 8,700 for the fall quarter, Edwards
said he feels the estimate
to be "a conservative one." If
facilities were available enrollment
easily would soar past the
9,000 mark, he stated.
Aside from shortage of. housing,
classroom and laboratory facilities
are inadequate to admit
the hundreds of students who are
being turned down.
API admihistratioif-has esti-
. mated the institution's building
needs at approximately $17,000,-
000 with more than $7,000,000 of
this in the critical category.
In addition, the college has
pending with federal housing
agency in Washington an application
for loan funds with which
to construct 336 apartment units

In Y-Hut At 8:
Tonight at 8:15 at the Player's
Theater the curtain opens

production, S. N. Behrman's
"Jane."
There will be eight performances
in all, on the evenings of
July 31, August 1 through 3 and
August 7th through 10th.
The play is a sophisticated
drawing room comedy based on
a short story by W. Somerset
Maugham.
Ann Heard is Jane, a middle-aged
widow from Liverpool who
captivates the society of London
by her disarming honesty. Gilbert
Dabney, a young architect
who marries Jane, and transforms
her into a chic woman, is portrayed
by Tom Duncan.
Lois Clark plays the role of
Millicent Tower, a shallow, snobbish
socialite who is shocked by
Jane's frank comments'. Charles
Earle portrays William Tower, a
sophisticated, world-traveled author
(this character is based on
Maugham).
Lord Allan Frobisher, a boisterous,
crude, self-made man
who takes pride in his many conquests
of women, is played by

Community Service
Set For August 4
Has Been Cancelled
The Community Worship
Service scheduled for n e x t
Sunday has been cancelled
due to action of the Official
Board of the Auburn Methodist
Church because of "a dangerous
situation" which it
said- exists.
Tuskegee institute's Chaplain
Daniel Wynn had been invited to
speak at the August 4 service,
and the Institute's Choir was to
sing. The Tuskegee group has
been a presentation of the annual
Worship Service since 1939 •and,
had been invited again this year
by the Auburn Association of
Churches, sponsors of the Community
Worship Services.
The service was scheduled at
the Methodist Church, but the
Official Board of the -church
withdrew the use of its facilities
for the service.
When notified of 4he action of .
the Methodist Church, the Auburn
Association of Churches
passed the following motion:
"Moved that since the Methodist
Church, host church for the second
half of the summer series,
has cancelled the use of its facilities
for Sunday evening, Aug. 4,
if the Tuskegee Institute Chaplain
and Choir participate, that the
Association notify the Tuskege*
Chaplain of this fact that further
that the Association-make publifc
announcement that for this reason
no service will be held Aug.
4."
The Rev. Joel McDayid,'; Methodist
pastor, presented: a ^resolution
at the Association meeting
on July 4& which his official
board had adopted, and \irhich r e ferred

situation" which it said

Sunday Evening Service Is Cancelled

exists, and for that reason it
thought the service ought to be
called off.
The resolution read:
"The Official Board of the Auburn
Methodist Church would like
to express its appreciation for
the part it has had in sponsoring
and sharing in the Sunday evening
Community Services as previously
held in API Amphitheater
in which the Tuskegee Choir
sang and the Chaplain preached.
We deplore conditions which have
created such tensions that the
wisdom of holding this service is
in question. We further express
the hope that this service may be
resumed as formerly held as
early as it is wise to do so.
"We believe in the historic position
of the Christian Church
that all men are children of God,
and quote from the Social Creed
of our Church, We believe that
God is the Father of all peoples
and races, that Jesus Christ is
his son, that all men are brothers,
and that man is of infinite worth
( as a child of God.'
"In the interest of this good
.will toward all men, we believe
it unwise and unfair to them to
bring the Tuskegee Choir and
•Chaplain to this service since the
danger of their embarrassment
or injury is a very real one.
"Avoid Incident"
"We deplore the fact that a
dangerous condition does exist
and do not wish to contribute to
such condition. We believe, there
fore, by calling off the service
that an incident will be avoided
This is done in the hopes that
we will continue to promote good
will between the races and that
this action be a part of such a
plan to the end that the Kingdom
of God may come and His will be
done on earth.
"We therefore inform the Auburn
Association of Churches that
we are withdrawing our invitation
to hold the Tuskegee Service
in our church on Aug. 4, 1957. We
are glad to have the other four
services in our church as scheduled,
and will work with the Association
in the finding-of a satisfactory
one for Aug. 4."
The Association took the position,
however, that if the Tuskegee
service was not to be held
that no Association-sponsored
service would be held on.Aug. 4.
First word that action leading
to cancellation of the service
might be forthcoming followed a
meeting of the church Association
on July 12.
Asked to Reconsider
At that meeting the Association
was asked to reconsider the invitation
to Tuskegee. The Association
voted that "if the Methodist
Church wishes to withdraw the
invitation (for use of its facilities
for the service) that the Association
recognize that fact." How-,
ever, the group took the position
it would not vote to cancel the.
service otherwise.

the Association said:
Leith Statement
"For the past several days, as
a member of the Auburn Association
of Christian Churches, I
have given the best thought I
could to the request of the Methodist
Church for the Association
to reconsider the invitation which
was extended to the Tuskegee Institute
Chaplain and choir to participate
in the Community Services
on Aug. 4.
"There are two co m m e n t s
which should be made at the beginning.
Any reconsideration of
an invitation, extended and accepted
in good faith, is a serious
matter. Secondly, all decisions in
the life of the Church must be
made, not on the basis of fear,
threats, intimidations, or prejudices,
but in obedience to the
Word of God. The Christian community
must at all costs main-

Rule Changes Good 4^-THE- PLAINSMAN Wednesday, July 31, 1957
The Plainsman was indeed pleased with
_ t h e news released last week that t h e college
would receive the benefit from all
fines collected from campus traffic violat
i o n s . The Plainsman campaigned for this
; i n its editorials and columns this past
•spring. It was felt that this feeling was
[also the sentiment of the student body.
-The manner in which the students have
Sreceived this hews confirms this.
The college will benefit financially
;
;from this action, but other benefits will
s also result from the n ew rule. Now that
I t h e Campus Police will be collecting the
I fines for the tickets t h e y distribute, they
- w i l l be in a position to b e t t e r .enforce the
I traffic rules of the campus. Heretofore,
| t h e A u b u r n city police have collected the
I fines.
. "Since the traffic regulations are made
j for the benefit of all concerned, stricter
• enforcement will improve their effective-
! ness.'
Although the revised rules are strict
and the police intend to see that they are
fully enforced, we cannot imagine any resentment
resulting since these rules are
necessary- and failing to enforce t h em
would be the same as not having them.
More cars are expected on campus this
fall than ever before. This means more
traffic congestion on our narrow campus
streets and parking spacef in the main
parts of the campus will be|at a premium.
Regulation of traffic flow i n d parking is
absolutely essential, and thfe Traffic Committee
has w o r k e d long!and h a r d to
write regulations that w|uld alleviate
problems and also be fair to all. We feel
they have done a commendable job, and
we are also certain that the students will
cooperate in keeping these rules.
The committee was well pleased with
the result of the regulations this past year.
The faculty and students displayed the
same wonderful spirit in this matter as
they do in all other phases of campus life.

was sure to find himself without
a dinner partner at the next box-lunch
social.
Nevertheless, the Tar Baby ladies
did a lot of talking. There
were lots and lots of things" in
their pleasant little Tar Baby
world that made them unhappy,
and so they chattered sadly to
one another about this or that
deplorable situation, and they
wept, and they fussed, and they
crossly asked their male contemporaries
why they didn't fix
things up the way they should be
for them.. -
This flatters the male ego in
Tar Baby language as well as
any other. The gentlemen Tar
Babies felt sorry for the poor little
downtrodden lady Tar Babies,
and they patted them on their
curly heads and dried their clamorous
tears, and promised to do
what they could.
The lady Tar Babies had a list
of complaints from here to yonder.
They handed them over to
the male Tar Babies with sweet
smiles and martyred sighs and
dainty protests that they'd be
glad to try and straighten their
problems out themselves, but
they were so helpless and oppressed
that they just couldn't
get started. "You men start if
off for us, and we'll finish it ourselves,"
they chorused, showing
their pretty teeth and fluttering
their pretty lashes.
And so the men went to work
and organized campaigns and got
up rallies and stuck their helpful
necks way out so that the bad
things could be fixed up for the
fer^aJe Tar Babies. They did
everything they could possibly
do, and finally nothing was Wt
to be done except what the lady
Tar Babies alone could do. It
wasn't much—just a matter of
getting all the Lady.Tar Babies
to say "yes" or "no" at the same
time.
But the lady Tar Babies didn't
say nuthin' at all. They just sat
in their warm little houses over
in the female section of Tar Baby
town and stared in wide-eyed bewilderment
at the things the
men Tar Babies had done, and
they didn't say a word. Except,
of course, to each other. To each
other they fussed and pouted at
and made fun of the very things
that the gentlemen had tried to
fix up for them.
So the next time they ran sobbing
pitifully to the men Tar
Babies with their problems, they
didn't get a very warm reception.
The men, older and wiser by that
time, just smiled indulgently and
said, "No dice."
The Tar- Baby race eventually
disappeared smack off the face
of the earth. Nobody knows for
sure just where they went, or'
what became of them. But some
say that they packed up and left
for the New World, where the
lady Tar Babies could start from
scratch and arrange things more
to their liking. Except a Tar Baby
is a Tar Baby no matter where
he (or she) sets up camp, and I'm
willing to bet that wherever they
are now, the lady Tar Babies are
running true to form, and ain't
saying nuthin'. In fact, I think I
knbw where they settled.
This is, for all practical purposes,
a satire. It has a moral,
too, which shouldn't be v e ry
hard to figure out. To plagiarize

SHIP AHOY
Equator
June 27—Aboard the USS Wisconsin—
The battleship Wisconsin
steamed across the equator—and
ran right into some unusual happenings
today.
The temperature at the equator
was cooler (82 degrees) than .most
June days in Auburn. And, in
keeping with the unusual day,
King Neptune came aboard.
Neptune is ruler of the ocean
depths. He makes his home at the
equator, and he came aboard the
Wisconsin to welcome to his domain
those who had not been here
before.
King Neptune brought his
Queen, a buxom, woman dressed
in gaudy red robes, aboard ship
with him. In addition, he brought
the Royal Baby, a big fat boy
dressed in diapers and bonnet;
and his Royal dentist and doctor,
attendants) and Royal Police.

Dear Editor: i
The Auburn" coed responded in
her usual style and lack of interest
to -your very well presented
editorial and questionnaire.
The "usual style" being
defined as 68* dining hall questionnaires
being placed in the
bailot box in the quadrangle. This
is approximately nine per cent
of the women ion the campus according
to enrollment figures
printed in the? Plainsman.
Pointing out:this latest example
of the complacency of the Auburn
coed, I would like to ask
why the PlairTsman continues to
waste editoriafi space on anything
concerning the quadrangle. From
the WSGA,campaigning of Klem
to this latest feminine fiasco a
week ago, the Auburn coed has
continually shown that whether
it be permission or drinking,
rules and regulations, sorority
houses or shorts, she is very much
pleased with the situation.
Why then, can't the Plainsman
accept this fact and devote more
editorial space to such things as
the weather — which can be
changed as easily as the quadrangle
conditions.
Name withheld upon request.

BY BOB TARTE
The Royal Police roamed the
decks rounding up those who were •
sailing in the royal domain for the
first time. These trespassers, or
pollywogs as they are called, were
hearded before the royal court.
Nothing the pollywog could say
in court would help him. He was
charged with entering the royal
domain without warning. The
punishment, the initiation ceremonies
connected with crossing
the equator.
The initiation included a chance
to kiss Royal Baby's fat (and
greased especially for the occas^v
ion) stomach; and the opportunity
to visit the Royal Barber for a
bearing-grease massage. The Royal
Doctor was on hand to give doses
of tonic.
Hapless pollywogs were hustled
through various baths by paddle
weilding Royal Police and finally
into the. cleansing pool. After the
cleansing, the initiates were shellbacks.
'
Some pollywogs aboard the
Wisconsin "escaped parts of the
ordeal. The royal court found it
hard to conduct the 2,191 pollywogs
through all the initiation
ceremonies. And the Royal Barber
ran out of bearing-grease.
"Crossing the line" was a big
day — and a well planned day
aboard the Wisconsin. Shellbacks
started making preparations well
in advance of the ceremony.
The cleansing pool, made of
plywood and canvas, was set up
on the fan tail the day before we
reached the equator. That night
Davy Jones, right hand man of
King Neptune, put in an appearance
aboard the ship.
Davy came aboard to issue subr
poenas to appear in royal court to
those who were crossing the
equator for the first time and to
check on preparations for the next
day's ceremony.
The morning of the line crossing,
lookouts were placed on gun
turrets, upper decks and various
other points of vantage to watch
for the coming of King Neptune.
The looksouts were dressed in
outfits ranging from shorts, life-jacket
and battle helmet to asbestos
firefighting, suits.
At the end of the day, everyone
aboard ship was a shellback, the
result of ceremonies observed
since the earliest times by the
U.S. Navy.

tain its integrity and responsibili
t y .
"The situation, as I understand
it, is this. The Methodist Church
agreed through its representatives
to the arrangements f or
these services. These arrangements
were discussed by the
members of the Association in
JMarch. The decision to hold the
Services in the Presbyterian and
Methodist churches was discussed
i£nd agreed to by the Boards concerned.
Final arrangements for
5hese services were made at a
meeting on April 11, .1957, at
which Joel McDavid, Ashland
Shaw, J. R. Richardsdon,: John
Leith and George Telford were
present. Copies of minutes indicating
in full the arrangements.
Four Added To Staff
Of English Depf.
Four new appointments to the
English department are announced
by President Ralph Draiighon.
Richard E. Amacher, Ridgway,
Pa., has been appbinted ^associate
professor. He is a graduate of
Ohio University, and received his
M. A. degree at the University of
Chicago. The Ph. D. degree was
conferred by Pittsburg-'Univer-sity.
Previously, Dr. Amacher
taught at Carnegie Tech, Yale,
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute,
Rutgers, and was English department
head at Henderson -State,
Ark. Among his written contributions
are two books, a* poem
and numerous reviews and papers.
Thomas J. Sellers, Auburn,
won his B. S. degree at API in
1948. Subsequently, he ehtered
the newspaper field where he
including dates for s p e a k e r s,
were mailed to the ministers of
each church participating, to J.
R. Richardson, and to Mrs. E. L.
Spencer, Secretary to the Association.
No protest or_ objection
was raised to any of the arrangements.
On May 17 an invitation
was extended in good faith to
the Tuskegee Chaplain and choir
for this traditional service. This
is no new service but one which
has been the custom in Auburn
for many years.
"It is my judgement as chairman
of the Association that no
further action is required .of the
Association unless and until the'
Methodist Church withdraws its
support from this service. As one
of the sponsoring churches, the
Methodist Church is - responsible
for the services. As host church
for the service on Aug. 4, it has
full responsibility for and control
over the use of its sanctuary. If
the Methodist Church feels, that
further action in this regard is
served as night editor of the Associated
Press, assistant city edi-.
tor of the Columbus (Ga.) Ledger
and as city editor of the
Montgomery Advertiser. He is an
instructor in English.
Taylor D. Littleton, Birmingham,
has accepted an appoint-^
ment as instructor in English.
He received both his B. S. and
M. A. degrees at Florida State
University. In the' past he has
served as instructor on the Florida
State English staff.
Howard Strong, Brewton, also
will serve as an English instructor.
His B. S. and M. S. degrees
were conferred byAPI. The doctor
of education degree was won
at Teachers College, Columbia
University. He has taught previously
in high schools and at API.

The Community Worship Service
has been an annual affair
for 24 years and heretofore has
been held in the Graves Centre
Amphitheatre on the campus, but
this year the services have been
held at the Presbyterian and
Methodist Churches.
This religious service is presented
by the Episcopal, Methodist,
and Presbyterian churches
of Auburn in conjunction with
the Faculty Committee on Religious
activities at API.

Chatter
by DON COUGHLIN
Plainsman Sports Editor
As the hot days pass over the "Loveliest Village of the
Plains" and Summer comes to a slow but sure halt, the air
fcegins to take that smell of football . . . But this week let's
pass over the gridiron season and take a look at Coach Joel
Eave's chances at the basketball crown for that far off season
. . . The SEC is going to be a tough place to be playing ball
for every team this season . . . And Auburn's chances loom
big in the experts eyes . . . With the loss of Captain Henry
Sturkie from the first unit, the Tigers will have four top notch
players for the opponents to watch . . . Men like Henry Hart,
Rex Frederick, Jimmy Lee and Bill McGriff returning and
Ty Samples, Bobby Tucker, Terry Chandler, Bill Gregory and
J. B. Bearden from the bench . . . With this aggregation to
choose from, Coach Eaves should have a title contender on
his hands . . . Frederick had a tremendous year as a sophomore,
as did Hart and Lee . . . They made many all-star teams
Hart Frederick Lee McGriff
. . . Sturkie will be the only man to replace, but his cool head-edness
and "Ole Reliable" ways on the court will be sorely
missed . . . Graduating* Center Thamas Coleman will be missing
as a replacement for 6-7 center McGriff . . .
The Freshmen have four men that will be right in the
thick of the fight for that one vacan| slot . . . Shot Johnston,'
Jimmy Fibbe, Ray Groover and Ray ward McManus . . . Johnston
could be the man- to pull away from the other first year
men and be a starter next Winter . . .
* * *
Auburn plays a tough intersectional schedule . . . First
they go to Columbus, Ga. to play Wake Forest, then they
travel to Dallas for a game with Southern Methodist and take
on the Bears of Baylor in Waco the next night . . . Of course,
just before this Southwestward trip, they play in the Birmingham
Classic, against teams like T. C. U., Miami, Miss. St.,
. . . Three days later, they take on the professional Phillips
Oilers . . . "
Should the roundball artists withstand this terrific assault,
then the SEC teams will hear and see a lot of basketball
from the Tigers of Auburn . . . Some good home games
to look forward to are the Georgia Tech, Vanderbilt, Tennessee
and the Kentucky game in Birmingham . . .
Coach Eaves has his work cut out for him, but with the
caliber of men he has to put on the hardwood court, the Tigers
should be right on top when March 2 rolls around . .*. You
see, 'March 1, is the Alabama game . . .

Morris's Perfect Game
Highlights IM Play
By Niles Nichols
The second half of the Summer Intramural softball session
got off to a rousing start during the past week. Rebels
pitcher R. L. Morris entered the mythical Hall of Fame when
he became the first pitcher to throw a no-hitter this summer,
as he led his Rebels to a thumping 13-0 romp over B. S. U.
last Tuesday.
Champion Combines
Marriage And Ball
Mac Champion, a Senior Quar-terback
from Hayneville, is one
of the few married football players
in school this summer. Mac
has a good throwing arm and is
a good student in his studies.
Mac is in Building Construction.
Michigan State b o x e r s have
won 13 individual NCAA titles.
Morris, in addition to throwing
the masterpiece, led the hitting
attack with a home run and
triple. Morris owns a 5-1 record
for the Summer, losing only to
the league winners in an extra
inning game.
Phi Kappa Tau and the Bulldogs,
league champs during the
first half, show no signs of slacking
up during the second half.
Phi Kappa Tau, playing in the
T-Th league during the second
half, beat BSU, 14-2. Ronnie
Robbs paced their hitting attack
with 5 RBI's including a tremendous
line drive home run.
The Bulldogs established themselves
as the team to beat in'the
M-W league by overpowering
Sigma Chi, 17-1. Jim Tyree
pitched and batted the 'Dogs to
the victory that kept their unbeaten
record intact. Phi Kappa
Tau also remains undefeated for
the season.

tudents Receive Aid
From Co-Op Program
BY GEORGE HEARN
Throughout the country today it is a popular belief that
lack of finances are no longer an excuse or reason for a boy
51? g i r l not getting a college education. One of t h e reasons this
belief is growing more and more popular at Auburn is because
of our growing Co-operative Educational Program.
This quarter 349 Auburn students
are listed in this program.
Of this number 140 are attending
school and 209 are working for
72 companies and firms throughout
twelve states.
.API's co-operative education
plan makes it possible for a student
to attend college on a self-sufficient
basis. As such, it is an
important plan. But co-operative
education has other values, values
which employers and students
are recognizing as equally
important.
Under the co-op plan a student
attends college one quarter,
then works the next quarter
in a job related to his studies. He
follows this pattern of study and
employment until graduation.
At Auburn most co-operative
students are enrolled in engineering
or related courses and a few
in business administration. With
Auburn on the 12-week quarter
system, the co-op student can
complete his combined job and
class training in • six calendar
years.
Co-operative education calls
for teamwork of student, employer
and college. And as usually
happens on a smoothly
functioning team, each member
gains an appreciation of his team
members. This appreciation or
greater perspective is probably
the foremost advantage to student,
employer or college.
The co-op program benefits the
student because it gives him a
chance to see the need of both
theory and application, of technical
and cultural courses, of
teamwork, "of continuing study,
on the job training, promotions
while working as a co-op student,
and makes the change from
college to employment much
easier.
Co-operative . education first
began at the University of Cin-cinati
with 27 students participating.
In the last 50 years it
has grown tremendously with a
high degree of perfection. Today
there are more than 19,000 students
in over 40 colleges who
participate in the Co-operative
Education Program.
This program,' though set up
especially for engineering students,
is open to students in any
field as long as job placements
can be made. Also, it is a program
for girls as well as boys.
At Auburn Mr. W. H. Tucker
is director of the Co-operative
Educational Program. Anyone interested
in this program may receive
additional information from
him by dropping by his office in
Ramsay Hall.

Korean Student Enrolled At Auburn
Majoring In Secretarial Training
Among the freshmen who began
their college career at Auburn
in June is Chook Lee, better
known by her friends on
campus as Tony Lee.
Tony is a native of Seoul, Korea
and has been in this country
for only little over two months.
She is registered in the School of
Science and. Literature, majoring
in Secretarial Training. Except
for the fact that Auburn is "a
little big", she likes it fine.
Upon completion of secondary
school, Tony entered Seoul Normal
College where she spent one
year studying Liberal Arts. The
major difference which she finds
in Auburn and Normal College
is that here she takes four courses
a quarter and in Seoul she studied
seventeen courses a semester.
This difference, though hard for
her to adjust to, is to her advantage,
she feels.
Tony's father is a Professor of
Literature and History at Seoul
National University, the same
coili^ge where her brother is
studying medicine. She hopes to
return to Seoul after graduation
from Auburn.
Tony feels that the American
way of life is the most wonderful
thing in the world and is
lookingjforward to being a part
of it for four years, even though
this means being separated from
her home and all connected with
it.
