20 Colleges, 100 Delegates Attend
Second International Affairs Confab
Military Editor, Washington Reporter
Featured Speakers For Conference
By JEAN HILL
The second annual Auburn Conference
on International Affairs
held h e r e last week, was
high-lighted by addresses from an
outstanding group in the field of
foreign affairs. Some 40 delegates
from 20 colleges and 60 Auburn
students participated in the conference.
Hanson W. Baldwin, New York
Times military editor, presented
the opening address on Thursday,
April 2. The address, entitled
"Where Do We Go From Here?"
dealt primarily with the comparative
military power of the United
States and Russia. An Annapolis
graduate and analyst of. the military
scene for 25 years, Mr. Baldwin
was able to give five reasons
on why he considered the United
States "still the greatest military
power iii the world." All lectures
were followed by round table discussions.
On Thursday night a lecture on
"Who and What Makes Our Foreign
Policy" was given by Douglass
Cater, Washington editor of The
Reporter. Having been a recipient
of an Eisenhower Fellowship, Mr.
Cater has been able to tour many
of the world's troubled areas.
Special emphasis during the talk
was given to United States policy
concerning Berlin and also to Mr.
Cater's impressions of Soviet Russia.
Granville Ramage, British Consul
for the Southeast United
States, spoke on "Communism,
Commonwealth and . Commerce,"
Friday morning. This Anglo-Am-
Irican talk presented the British
viewpoint of United States foreign
policy. Mr. Baldwin emphasized
the point that his country "is not
soft on Communism," but must
react differently than the United
States in certain situations.
The convention w a s climaxed
by a speech by H. W. Dittman,
second secretary, German Embassy,
Washington, D.C., at the
Friday night banquet. This address
vitally concerned the conference
topic, "Western Europe-
Key to Foreign Policy?" Herr
Dittman ably presented the West

Navy Preparing
Village Fair Exhibit
In ROTC Hangar
By DOUG MclNTOSH
Visitors to Auburn's Village
Fair April 10-11 will have the opportunity
to see the United States
Navy in action—on land and 250
miles from the nearest salt water.
Midshipmen of the Naval Reserve
Officer's Training Corps will
"man their battle stations" and
demonstrate the latest techniques
of naval warfare in the ROTC
hanger which is located on the
western side of the campus.
The midshipmen will perform
on the many operational weapons
which are used to train the men
for service in the navy and Marine
Corps after graduation. Five
and three inch cannons will do
everything but blow up an enemy
while an anti-submarine attack-
teacher will bring an imaginary
submarine to bay with all
the drama one might find on a
real bridge of a real destroyer.
. The_mJdshipman's.-lounge will-be
turned into a theatre for the
two days of Village Fair for the
purpose of showing films of the
navy's superweapons in action.
Last year, moving pictures of jet
fighters proved to be one of the
most popular attractions of the
entire weekend.
Following the theme "Navara-ma,"
every man in the NROTC
Unit is cooperating to make the
navy displays interesting and informative.
This is the second successive
year that the unit has undertaken
such a project.
Static displays of navy and Marine
Corps equipment will also
be located in the hanger. The
navy display will be slanted toward
the academic side of the potential
naval officer's life while in
college and the NROTC program.
It will include uniforms, textbooks
and a midshipman will explain
the requirements for acceptance
into the program.
A shuttle bus will be run from
the Social Center on Ross Square
to the ROTC hanger every fifteen
minutes Friday afternoon and all
day Saturday.

Spring Show To Make
Last Run Here Tonight
The last run of the 1959 Spring Show will be staged tonight
in the Union Ballroom at 8:15 p.m. From a relatively
slow start last Monday night, the production has since drawn
increasingly large crowds so that tonight, the Ballroom is
expected to be filled to overflowing.
Under the direction of Don
Leithauser, the 21 man cast enacts
a musical comedy built around a
plot involving money, women,
and a publicity-shy millionaire.

TWO DAYS AGO EVERY BULLETIN BOAR D on campus bore a close resemblance to this one.

of their efforts seemed to cancel the val ue of, poster publicity completely.
World's Record Broken;
41 Jam 'Phone Booth
41 Men Pack Into Telephone Booth
After Failing In Three Previous Tries
A seemingly unsurpassable world's record toppled last
Saturday when forty-one Lambda's Chi's jammed into a regulation
telephone booth and placed a call to the Lee County
Bulletin newspaper office. Although the men had intended to
break the record; spokesman for the group, Charles Earle, said
that they were amazed at the
eight-man margin by which they
bettered the old record of 33.
The record-breaking feat was
accomplished on the fourth try,
the first three having ended in
failure when the men on the bottom,
began to scream too loudly
for others in the booth to stand.
Finally, on the fourth attempt,
the last men in ignored the desperate
please of those under them
and called the newspaper office,
thus completing the accepted provisions
of telephone-booth-cramming
rules. An estimated crowd
of 200 cheered as the last man, assisted
by several fraternity brothers,
was stuffed on top of the
squirming mass.
Auburn policemen arrived on
the scene when it was all over
but the shouting and began to
shout. After they ascertained that
there was no visible property
damage they subsided and retired
as gracefully as possible under
the circumstances. A representative
of the telephone company
also put in an appearance. He
agreed that the feat was truly remarkable
one but mildly lamented
the fact that, in the process,
the frame of the booth had become
slightly sprung. The participants
offered to pay for any
damage but the telephone official
said he thought the booth could
be bent back into shape without
too much trouble.
There was some speculation at
the scene, across from the A&P
grocery store on South Glenn, as
to whether or not the record
could be considered official. Those
holding the pessimistic viewpoint
felt that since API is still on probation
by the NCAA it could not
be. The optimists in the crowd
maintained that the sport had not
been invented at the time of the
ban's imposition and therefore did
not come under the restrictions of
the ruling. The men who had been
at the bottom of the pile didn't
care.
Kingston Trio To
Appear Here In
Concert April 14
The spectacularly p o p ul a r
Kingston Trio will arrive in Auburn
Tuesday night to present
their once-cancelled concert at
8:00 p.m. in the Student Activities
Building. The original concert
date, March 5, had to be set
back until April 14, when one of
the troupe, Dave Guard, was hospitalized
in North Carolina.
Tickets for the 90-minute performance
were sold out within
fifteen minutes after,they went
on sale last quarter. ODK and
Blue Key, senior men's honora-ries
and joint sponsors of the
Trio, discussed the possibility of
contracting for a matinee performance
but were unable to assure
themselves that the demand
for additional tickets would be
strong enough to clear the added
expenses of such an undertaking.
The sellout crowd is an unprecedented
event within the memory
of informed sources with
experience in previous campus
events of a similar nature. With
ticket prices set at $1.50 per person
it was estimated that the two
sponsors would probably have
to absorb a small loss. As it has
turned out however, expenses
should be cleared easily.
The Kingston Trio was formed
in 1956 and turned professional in
1957. All three men were students
at Stanford University.
All the script and music and most
of the choreography. were originated
by members of the cast.
They also designed and-constructed
the scenery for the show.
The Spring Show was originated
in 1956 by an Auburn faculty
member and presented as a variety
show. The next year students
took over the entire production
and have been in complete
charge since.
Themes were taken from situations
on the campus and satirized
on stage for the first three years
that the event was presented. Last
year, however, the musical's plot
took on the appearance of a more
polished production and banished
the local backdrop.

As Transition Nears... »^™««
A week of intensive campaigning by
some 44 candidates was culminated.yesterday
with the spring elections. For seven
days and nights the meals of many students
have been interupted by earnest office-
seekers with lists of qualifications and
"if elected" promises.
Most of the promises were so general it
is pretty evident their originators are actually
pretty hazy on the duties and responsibilities
which go with the offices
sought. Others were so magnamimous they
were meaningless. We are sure that all the
candidates were sincere in their desire to
serve the student body of Auburn. We
doubt if half of them know where or how
to begin.
Since The Plainsman is by no means
qualified to advise on all phases of student
administration, we have few specific
suggestions to offer. We have observed,
however, one human failing which has, in
varying degrees, hindered projects undertaken
in the school. That failing is procrastination.
Like James Thurber's "Next week we've
got to get organized" cartoon, prosrastina-tion
can quickly drain the most dedicated
workers of enthusiasm. There is no lack of
problems, which need immediate and continued
attention. The parking and traffic
problem is very acute, cases of drinking
excesses may be indicative of a trend, and
there are many other lesser problems that
will crop up from time to time.
The student body is looking to the newly
elected men and women to serve it as
completely as possible. We wish them luck
in their new jobs—and suggest they get
started now.
Scope Of Our Fair
What is Auburn? To many Alabama high
school students, API is a football team, a
basketball team, and possibly a wrestling
team. To us, it is all these, and we are
proud of the achievement. Yet Auburn is
much more. There are nine s c h o o ls
here. All of them are good; some are among
the best in the south, or in the nation. Over
8,000 students attend Auburn and comprise
a remarkable student body. To learn these
things firsthand, we welcome you to Village
Fair.
Each school, each department has devoted
much time, thought, care, and work
toward making their display effective. This
is the part of Village Fair that shows you
what the schools have to offer; what curricula
are available, perhaps the sort of
work the students do, or possibly the ultimate
concern of the graduate. Don't make
the mistake of merely investigating the exhibit
of your intended major. You'll find
the rest of them interesting, informative
and entertaining. Auburn tradition demands
that each year the schools surpass
previous displays. As difficult as that
seems this year, we are certain it will be
done.
All work? No, Auburn students play—
often and with great enthusiasm. You'll
see that, we hope, at the Soapbox Derby
and the show Saturday night. You'll join
us, we hope, at our parties and dances.
Your best contact with the school though
will probably be that which you make with
the student body. They come from Norway
and Cuba, Illinois and New Jersey, Birmingham
and Gadsden, Tuscaloosa and
Brewton and Union Springs and Auburn.
They study architecture, manufacturing
and pharmacy. Together, they make this
the friendliest campus in the United States.
That friendliness is also a part of the Auburn
tradition. We expect to show you how
large a part during this weekend.
To those of you who have been here before,
welcome back. If this is your first
visit, we hope that it will be such that
you'll return often. To all our guests, have
a nice weekend!—JENNINGS.
At The ACOIA...
One of the most informed and interesting
groups of men to have been gathered in a
long while was here last week for the annual
Auburn Conference on International
Affairs. Hanson Baldwin, Douglas Cater,
Granville Ramage and H. W. Dittman presented
the opinions of three..countries,
(United States, Germany, and" Great Britain),
on the contemporary world situation.
Mr. Baldwin, according to some reports
is the most informed man in the country
today on comparative military strength.
He is of the opinion that the United States
is still considerably ahead in the arms race.
Douglas Cater, the Conference's second
speaker and the Washington editor of the
Reporter magazine, spoke last Thursday
night.
Although these two men are in the top
group of American experts on foreign affairs,
they were not, in our opinion, as interesting
as the two speakers from European
countries.
Granville Ramage, the British consul to
the southeastern U. S., spoke on "Commu-

nism, Commonwealth, and Commerce,"
and while so doing, offered conference delegates
the rare chance of absorbing British
foreign policy from a direct representative
of the Queen.
Mr. Ramage was, by the way, a most interesting
and intelligent person to converse
with. At the reception following his address,
the British diplomat mixed very
amiably with delegates and offered many
interesting sidelights to his address.
At the banquet on Friday night, H. W.
Dittman, the second secretary to the German
Embassy in Washington, unexpectedly
spoke on German foreign policy.
Here was a man, speaking English fluently
but heavily, telling a group of American
students what Germany has been doing.
One wondered as he spoke about what
he was doing this time 19 years ago. Was he
standing before a red flag with a swatstika
emblem and speaking to another group of
students? It did not really matter at all and
yet the thought was interesting; for here
was a citizen of a country that had been
through devastation, anarchy, famine and
inflation several times in a single century.
It would have wiped out a lesser people.
But there was still hope in this man and
most of the delegates were convinced that
there is a growing hope inside Germany
today. The Germans want re-unification
and another chance and they are looking
only to the West for help.
Mr. Dittman's talk closed ACOIA in an
extremely effective manner and we are
sure that every delegate went away from
the Conference with not only a valuable insight
into our own foreign policy, but a
recognition of the fact that we do have
diplomatically and militarily active allies,
that we don't stand alone against communist
expansion.—ROLL.
New Chance
The meetings currently scheduled in
every county throughout the slate may be
the springboard Auburn needs to finally
transform a faint glimmer of hope for appropriations
into hard-earned reality.
In the coming two weeks, API grads,
parents of students, and other interested
folks will discuss the needs of our institution
and the methods by which they can
be fulfilled. Included on each program will
be a 25-minute film depicting Auburn at
work for the stale's benefit.
It is hoped that the Montgomery solons
may be influenced by this activity and that
their appropriations lists may include
increases to API.
The Plainsman will keep Auburn students
up to date on the activity and effect
of these meetings.—PHILLIPS

And You Blundered! So What?
Here's Some Real Consolation
Blunders have always been a prime sourse of our
amusement, whether in verbal or written form. There
is something comforting to all of us when someone
not only opens his mouth and puts his foot in it—but swallows the
foot. It is with this in mind that the following bevy of bungles is
presented, with only the hope that you will find some amusement in
them; so laugh, dammit!
I might add that the following
was stolen, I mean obtained, from
e. book you can actually find in
the main library, Louis Unter-meyer's
"Treasury of Laughter."
Now, I know not if Mr. Unter-meyer
has been watching too
much TV, but it seems that I've
lately been getting a great deal
of mail from 77 Sunset Strip.
As has been said, the "law of
the bungle" takes two basic
forms, verbal and written, each
of which is guaranteed to induce
people to laugh at others' bungles.
The 'others' 'don't find this
particularly amusing. To illustrate,
the Reverend Spooner did
not find it amusing when, in berating
his congregation for its
small attendance, he intended to
emphasize the "weary benches";
instead he shouted, "I am tired
of addressing these beery wenches."
It is said that the Reverend
Spooner went on to speak of
someone "occupying his pie" and
said he had just ridden from town
on'"a well-boiled icicle."
Incalculably comic are the typographical
errors found abundantly,
in today's newspapers. As
an example of humor in typographical
error, a New Zealand
paper stated a Mr. X was a "defective
in the police force." When
the error was pointed out, the
paper ran a retraction: "We regret
the typographical mistake
which made us refer to Mr. X as
a 'defective in the police force.'
Obviously the sentence should
have read: _ 'Mr. X is a detective
in the police farce.' "
Substitution of letters within a
word ofttimes add a humorous
flavor. This was the case when, in
substituting an "1" for a "d," a
dull statement was turned into a
startling truth: "Mrs. Robbins,
President of the Woman's Club,
announces that on Wednesday,
June 15th, the final meeting will
be hell." The substitution of an
"a" for an "o" caused something
even more dramatic. "Gypsy Rose
Lee," so ran the announcement,
"the well-known strip-tease artist
and author has turned playwright;
she is naving her navel
dramatized."
Freud insists that our subconscious
self prompts us to commit
errors which reveal our hidden
desires. This certainly holds true
of the writer who inserted the
word "not" in the following brief
news item: "Fabian, the well-known
recording star was shaken
up and bruised when his car left
the highway and turned over. It
is feared that his vocal cords were
not injured."
An advertisement in a Pennsylvania
paper attracted a great deal
of notice, especially as it was
headed "Mother's Day Special."
It read: "Don't Kill Your Wife.
Let Our Washing Machine Do the
Dirty Work."
Frequently, the location of an
item can bring on a few chuckles.
For instance, near the bottom of
the personal want ads column of
a county paper ran this item:
"After ten years of marriage, two
happy parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. V.
Door, anonunce the birth of their
first child, a son." followed by:
"Remember. Champlain County
Want Ads Bring Results."
Finally, a fish story from the
Northwest Organizer ended with
this startling statement: "That's
a lot of fish in any language—
thirty-nine pounds—and all in
one piece. Still, as Fred Simmons
says, 'For sheer tricks, fight, and
stamina, give me a small-mouthed
lass at sundown, any time.' "
Lo song! I mean, "so long!''

College Corner: Beards, Birds,
And Dr. Peale's Comment
| | Two months ago the following exclamations were
5 heard from several young ladies at McGill Uriiver-zmmz
s i t y : "Good texture," "Mmmmm the Shape," "The
length . . . wonderful," "I like the Curlincss." Perhaps you have
already guessed at what these comments were directed. Well, if you
haven't, they were directed at the fellows who had entered the beard-growing
contest. I dare say Auburn fellows could offer some competition
what, with all the whiskers that have been growing recently.
Keep them spruced up fellows for who knows when someone will want
to fondle that fuzzy foilage and check the texture.

to do so) that they are leaps ahead
of my generation when wc were

mature and better informed." The
foregoing statement is taken from
a reprint found in t h e Akron

which we receive. Now, now take
your nose out of the air; you have
to live up to this description each

That exhausts my supply of exchange

As the current and coming crises
of American education are brought
to the fore, those who frown on
the idea of education for the public
become conspicuous. These
frowners seem to
be men of two,
and only two, alternatives,
m en
who argue that
our society h as
the choice of offering
a superior
education to the
few or an inferior
one to the
masses. T h e ir
choice is the for-mor,
an education for the elite;
Auburn, these frowners say, falls
into the latter.
The frowners have convincing
arguments; institutions like Auburn
are unfortunately committed
to this unproductive, if democratic,
idea. We are playing with a process
in education, they tell us, that
begins to be more of a millstone-around-
the-neck than a crown-on-
the-head of American education.
We are preoccupying ourselves
with a k i n d of quantity
education.
Tempting as it may be, we cannot
disregard these frowners. It
seems possible, indeed probable,
that Auburn could become hysterically
involved in attempts to provide
necessary facilities for greater
and greater numbers of students
and prospective students. The race
against Russia and education's
many deficiencies have combined
to produce fertile ground for the
seeds of hysteria.
But neither can we disregard
our needs. With more classrooms,
more equipment, a n d more instructors,
at least p a r t of our
problem will be solved. But unless
we are careful, such provision of
quantity can become the major
threat and danger for Auburn.
Although we may please the
tax-payer or the legislator, we
run the risk of over-emphasizing
the quantitative when we erect
buildings before we hire teachers.
The outsider can see buildings going
up. He can occasionally glance
at his newspaper and read that
facilities are being improved at
Auburn. And he can, it would
seem, begin to measure our progress,
our adequacy, in terms of
appearance and physical things.
Auburn needs not only more but
better cjassrooms, more and better
equipment, more and better instructors.
The truth is that we can frown
back at the frowners. Auburn can
offer superior education. We can
achieve quality if we insist on it
—not the kind of quality that the
smaller schools are capable of producing,
but the kind of quality
that is possible within our framework
of quantity, the k i n d of
quality that demands that we
educate everyone up to the level
of his ability.
We will have to have quantity,
but quality must be an essential
ingredient in future recipes for
sound education at Auburn.

Dear Editor,
It seems that politics at API
should be deemphasized! We may
never find ourselves in a Phcnix
City type predicament, but the
conduct of many Auburn political
backers during the past campaign
has been anything but becoming
to college students.
As a non-biased onlooker, I
viewed many posters of a certain
candidate turned completely upside
down last Monday morning.
Congratulations, weekend warriors!
Two other participants
found numerous signs of theirs
marred by colored thumbtacks
placed thoughtlessly in the man's
eyes and nose.
Tuesday morning the backers of
another candidate covered the
campus completely, scribbling his
name upon almost every black-
Linda Teller
board. By nine o'clock they were
all erased within the temporary
buildings, while his opponents'
name appeared somewhere on c&ch
of these boards. The group who
chalked the names which were
erased testified that the opposit
tion's identification wasn't on a
lone board when they marked 'em ,
up that morning.
To me, the most abominable
happening of the political season
occurred at a campus fraternity
house early in the week. A supporter
of the opposing party to
this frat's candidate entered the
fellow's room and tore it to
shambles. What arc wc coming to?
Let's keep politics honest here
at Auburn or banish them altogether.
There's simply too much
at stake!
Gloria Schmidt
Friends Pave The Way
To Fuller, Richer Experience
I believe that one of the most beautiful experiences
in our world of rush and hurry is friendship.
There were four of us, and although it seems cter- '<>•'•<•-
nities ago, I will never forget the hours shared with my three best
friends.
If you have never shared the
experiences of learning, understanding,
love with close friends,
you have missed something that
no one in a hundred years of explaining
could express adequately
to you. If you have never felt the
security of people who will stand
behind you and always honor and
respect you although they may
know your worse habits, your most
annoying peculiarities, your nearly
unforgiveable faults, then how
could you ever feel sure of anything
you might be or do?
Just acquaintances, people you
know to say "hi" to are not in the
category of which I am speaking.
These are friends, but in a broader
sense. I am thinking of the friends
that we grow up with; not in the
way that we mature physically,
but in the way that we mature
mentally. We find in a deep discussion
with real friends, who
know each other well, an astonishing
fact, such as a meaning
of God or love. We hear these two
words defined a million times, but
until one thinks for himself about
God or love, neither seems close
enough to be real. To express our
thoughts gives them fuller, and
richer meanings.
A separation of friends must always
come, and even though now
my three ole buddies have each
departed their individual ways and
we are seldom together except for
summers, I still thank my lucky
stars for the opportunity, of forming
my first philosophy of life together
with friends whose views
I found so satisfactorily in accord
with my own.
Whenever I think of the beauty,
the need, the wonder, the excitement
of friendship, I think of this
passage I have read many times:
"Oh, the comfort—the inex- '
pressible comfort of feeling safe
with a person; having neither to
weigh thoughts nor measure
words, but pouring them all
right out, just as they are, chaff
and grain together; certain that
a faithful hand will take and
sift them, keep what is worth
keeping, and with a breath of
kindness blow the rest away."
Jim Phillips
Past Campaign Brought
A Whacky Memory To Light
It's late in the week. This c h a o t i c campaign
is beginning to tell on you. It's hard to walk up those
stairs at the house now, and m e a l s are becoming
difficult to swallow during the few minutes you allot yourself for
them. In a rare moment of rest, your mind plies over past occasions
of more pleasant nature. Then, as always, the grim reminders of
darker days creep through.
It was at the end of my junior
year of high school. We'd been
campaigning hard for my presidential
candidate, Bowden, all
week long. Now it was Friday
morning—the payoff. As Campaign
Manager Phillips walked to the
podium, I was sure that the bloodthirsty
audience heard my heart
smashing violently at the walls of
my chest. Twenty-eight hundred
eyes beamed their disapproval. I
wanted to run.
A scant five days before, Jimmy
Bowden was generally considered
a poor third in a three man race.
But Jimmy was a pusher. He
didn't believe in defeat without
going down valiantly. At his request,
throughout the campaign
seven of us spent countless hours
behind the telephone, calling
every member of North Fulton's
student body. Wc asked each for
his support and vote. Because of
our effort, Jimmy was squarely
set in a lossup position for the
win come Friday. This day's
speeches could tell the story.
So now it was time to give those
fourteen-hundred people a last
glance at what our candidate
stood for. If I delivered a good
speech, it might help some, I kept
telling myself. But if I choked
it'd surely cost Jimmy the election.
There was more or less nothing to
gain and everything to lose.
Slapping my speech together the
night before, I added a joke to
loosen up (lie audience. Until the
wee hours of morning I practiced
my tone of voice that would be
used for that "coon talc's" punch
line. I figured that it'd be best to
tell the joke in the darkic vocabulary
with my own tone of voice,
then end up with a colored man's
sound. After I thought I had it
perfected, I bedded down, self-satisfied
and in good voice.
After an unusually confident
opening that next morning, following
my near heart-attack, bedlam
struck w i t h the force of a
lightning boll. I told them:
"Once dcre were a colored minister
who wanted to give his congregation
a powrful good sermon.
So he pick hisself out a 111' darky
and tell him to git up in de trap
door above de pews, com' Sunday
mawnin. Lil' man don't much
know belter so he say O.K.
He gon' throw doves out frum dc
ceiling when ol' preacher com to
de part of his sermon what say
'and .the Lord sent the spirit down
from Heaven in the form of.
doves'."
Sunday come, and ol' minister
start his sermon. He come to dat
part whar de doves is supposed to
come down. He look up—no
doves."
"He a little mad, but he still
try again a little louder. Well, dcre
still ain't no trap door opening in
sight an no doves flyin down." .
"Enraged, ol' preacher say again,
shouting now at de t o p of his
lungs, 'and the Lord sent the spirit
down from Heaven in the form of
doves'."
"Bout dat time little black face
with big white teeth gleaming in
dc Sunday mawnin' sunshine peer
out frum de trap door and say
»>
In that next second the world
could have ended and I wouldn't
have cared less. It wasn't that my
tone got derailed by laryngitis or
anything such as that. I had forgotten
the entire punch line.
So with hand scratching the top
of my balding h e a d I uttered,
"Now what did he say?"
AH at once, the stone-faced audience
roared in one simultaneous
tumult. Torn up inside, I knew
I'd lost it for him. All that work
was for naught. No one but I was
to blame.
Precious seconds later, too much
later, I remembered, "De cat done
ate de doves, should I throw de
cat down?"
I never was in such agony as
that I suffered for the remainder
of the day's orations. But then
to close things up, Jimmy stepped
to the mike and more than made
up for the votes I had seemingly
lost him. You can imagine my relief
when his victory was announced
that evening.
And now my second flirtation
with politics is history. Luckily,
in thirty-seven speeches t h is
spring, my high school blunder
didn't repeat itself. But anyhow,
don't ever pay attention to the
guy who states otherwise, "These
arc the times that try men's souls."

The Tigers arc currently the
hottest team in the Southeastern
Conference, having won
them an overall record of 6-5
and they are 4-1 in the SEC.
The Yellowjackets are not as
strong as they were last year
butu they still have the fine
throwing arms of Buddy Blem-ker

Netmen Meet Mercer,
Golfers Face Howard

Patronize Our Advertisers
3-A—THE PLAINSMAN Friday, April 10, 1959
Auburn's tennis team, coasting
along with a 3-2 record,
meets Mercer here on the Plains
this Saturday. Coach Young's
crew should chalk up win number
four as earlier this season
the Tigers defeated Mercer in
their own back yard.
George Bagwell will be out
to avenge a previous loss to
Mercei''s number one man, Fred
Mohr. Mohr slipped past Bagwell
6-4, 5-7, and 6-4 two weeks
ago at Mercer. Jack Rice is another
Auburn netman seeking
revenge against Mercer. Rice
lost to Mercer's Norm Carter,
6-1, 8-6, in their previous meeting.
Challenge rounds will spotlight
this weeks tennis program
Paul Anderson and Sam Upton
both late returnees to the squad
will be pushing the regulars for
starting berths. Neither of these
two are new faces to the squad
by any means. Upton played in
several vrasity matches last year
and Paul Anderson was on the
freshman team. These challenge
rounds should prove quite interesting
as either of these
players is capable of moving up
in the varity lineup.
Last Friday the Auburn net-men
squeeked by Troy in a
match played in Troy. With the
match all tied at 4-4, Sam Ligon
and Paul Anderson, having never
played in a double match together
swept through t h e ir
doubles match to hand the Tigers
a 5-4 victory.
Paul Anderson played his
first varsity tennis match as
number six man against Troy.
Anderson won his singles match
before teaming with Ligon for
the big doubles match. In his
singles match, Anderson lost
the first set 5-7 and was behind
2-5 in the second set. He won
the next five games to take the
second set and then went on to
cop the third set, and the
match.
Tom Purser, Tommy Sapp,
and Paul Anderson won their
singles matches against T r o y.
The combinations of Sapp-Pur-ser
and Ligon-Rice took doubles
honors to round out Auburn's
victory.
Three matches provide Coach
"Sonny" Dragoin's Auburn link-sters
with another rugged week
of golf. The Tigers open a three
match home stand against Howard,
Florida State University,
and Western Illinois.
Howard comes to the Plains
Monday, fielding a young team'
with little experience. Coach
Lindy Martin of Auburn, has
only eight games scheduled for
his Howard Bulldogs, two
these being against Auburn.

Tigers Look Sharp
In Downing Tide
By 8-6 Count
By JOHN WALLACE
Plainsman Sports Writer
The Auburn Tigers began to
look more like defending SEC
champions as they bounced
back from several early season
losses to place themselves in
contention for this year's title.
A non-league, extra-inning
4-3 conquest of Troy State kept
the ball rolling after the Georgia
victory and sent the Plainsmen
into a three-game series
with Vanderbilt with victory in
mind.
Tiger batters burst to life in
the trio of matches in Nashville
and pounded Vandy pitchers
unmercifully to sweep the se-
Alan Koch scattered eight
Commodore hits over seven innings
in the opener Friday and
settled back to enjoy an 18-hit
attack off two of Vandy's top
pitchers, Jim McKee and Ralph
Maple, as the Tigers romped
to a 15-4 victory.
Soph second - sacker J im
Douglas crossed the plate four
times in the debacle and led
the Tiger attack with a double
and a homer in three official
times at bat.
Bruce White relieved Koch in
the latter part of the game and
performed well.
The Tigers kept rolling Saturday
as they blasted Vandy in
a double-header 8-3 and 10-4
behind P o r t e r Gilbert and
Lloyd Nix.

of the local meets. This year the Tigers hope to field their
usually good cinder crew. One of the main features of the track
team is the 880 yard relay team composed of Benny Overstreet,
Paul Krebs, Bobby Webb and Tommy Waldrip.

The Tigers will depend mainly
upon team balance to defeat
the Georgians; however, soph-more
Richard Crane is a good
bet to take the shot put and
the discus. Crane captured both
of these events in the Florida
relays and should improve as
the season moves along.

host of others are waiting to

The Tiger freshman have
several outstanding prospects
who should show up well this
Saturday.
Corky Frost and Jimmy Bonner
may run 1-2 (or 2-1) in
the hurdles. Both were high

will also broad jump.
Half-miler Jimmy Dozier is
another state champions on the

The rest remain to be seen,

In the Spring!
How colorific...
If you have ever been down
the hill to the Auburn field
house looking for some knowledge
about Plainsmen sports,
you probably noticed the friendly
atmosphere awaiting e v e r y
visitor.
Coaches, trainers, athletes
and managers greet ydu with a
cordial smile a mile wide no
matter how busy they are or
how big a rush they are in. But
if you are going to the field
house seeking Auburn sports
talk the man you wish to see is
Sports Publicity Director, Bill
Beckwith, the friendliest of
them all.
Upon entering the crew cut
young gentleman's office the
first thing you see is a sure fire
Mrs. America, but she has never
ran. Mrs. Rita Boyd is her
name and she takes to being
friendly just like the rest of
them. She is Bill's secretary and
will help you out when your
deadline is only hours away. If
you have long enough to stay,
she'll pour you a cup of coffee
while you're maybe waiting for
Bill or one of the coaches to
come in.
While we're talking about the
coffee, maybe we had better tell
you why there is coffee abrew-ing
in a business office. It's for
the coaches and- any sports writer
or talker who would care
for some—it all adds to the
friendly atmosphere of the
number one publicity office in
the nation. •
About this time- the young
businesman known to everyone
as Bill will walk in wearing
that continuous smile. After
settling down in his big chair
you're down to business.

Harvard Excels As Letter Winner—Then And Now
How many athletic letters
can a fellow win in high
school?
Well, you can try and figure
that one out, and while trying,
your best bet would be to ask
an expert on the subject. Such
an expert could be found at
apartment 17-B of Graves Center,
in the personage of Bryant
Harvard.
Bryant won 17 high school
letters; four in track, four in
gpif,.four in baseball, three in
football and. two in basketball.
He scored 142 points and passed
for 10 more TD's while a
senior at Thomasville High
School. Golf-wise, Bryant was
twice runner-up in the Georgia
State Prep Golf tournament.
While on the subject of letters,
Bryant is adding to his already
long strmg, while here
at Auburn. In 1957,' Bryant won
letters in football and golf and
is in the process of adding another"
golf letter for this season.
To be such an athlete, one
would: expect-to see a-brawling
hunk of a man with muscles in
his eyelids and fire spurting
from his eyes. Such is not the
case. Bryant is a six-footer,
weighing 180 pounds, very
calm, and. very much a gentleman.
He takes a serious attitude
toward both his school
work and athletics.
"I'd like to play golf 365 days
a year," says Harvard. Although
he fails to get in this much, he
does excel at the sport and at
the present time is holding down
the number one position on the
Auburn golf team. Earlier this
week he beat Dick Pride, one
of the state's top young golfers
and an ex-state champ, in the
Tigers-victory over Bama. Harvard
has been teeing off for
some seven and a half years and
he has recently played in several
tournaments. He took medalist
honors in the Piney Woods
Tournament and made the
championship flight in Southeast
Tournament. Bryant also
played in the Montgomery Invitational
Tourney.
Most people associate the name
Harvard with football, and well
they should. Although Bryant
has played only one season in
•the.varsity ranks, 1957, it was
an action-packed one and gave
promise of big things to come.
As a soph, Bryant worked to
perfection his version of the
roll out, pass or run option. He
attempted 24 passes, completed
11 for 133 yards. He carried the
ball 36 times for 145 net yards,
and scored two TD's. His longest
run of the season was a
35-yard TD sprint against a
Houston team. On roll out passes
Harvard hit Wasden for a
30-yard gain, then connected
with Itawson for 26- more. One
of the fastest men on the squad,
Bryant will be right up there
fighting when the 1959 season
rolls around.
Just before the 1958 season
began, Harvard suffered an injury
which prohibited him from
seeing any action that year. He
suffered a broken leg, splintered
about an inch above the
ankle. Since then he has undergone
two operations which kept
him on crutches for about nine
weeks. Now the leg seems to be

Why did
14,436
sophomores
enter advanced
Army R.O.T.C.
during 1958?
Many more applied. Not all were accepted.
In more than 200 U. S. colleges, 14,436 college
sophomores met the high standards set. These
students were selected to continue officer
training in the advanced R.O.T.C. course.
Why did each of these young men decide
that he would benefit by fulfilling his military
obligation as an Army officer? Here are two
important reasons. Perhaps they'll help you
make your decision.
1...TRADITIONAL RESPONSIBILITIES
As an Army officer, you're in command of men. More
men than the number supervised by many civilian executives
years older than yourself. To meet your command
responsibilities, you employ a great many of the '
LEADERSHIP principlesacquiredinadvancedR.O.T.C.
training. And your executive potential develops while
2...TRADITIONAL REWARDS
In every organization, greater responsibilities mean
greater rewards. The traditional prestige of an Army
officer is matched by material advantages. A second
lieutenant earns a minimum of $355.88 per month-plus
substantial fringe benefits. Think you might want
to marry soon after graduation? An officer's salary can
you gather LEADERSHIP experience. The executive
ability you gain as an Army officer will be an imp&rtant
advantage in any civilian career. That's why employment
directors often prefer men who have served as commissioned
officers. These men have already proven their
capacity to handle executive responsibility.
make things a great deal easier for a married couple
just starting out. What's more, an Army officer is entitled
to take bis dependents with him, wherever possible.
Imagine sharing the fun of travel with your wife
—in the United States or foreign countrieslike France,
Germany or Japan.

Music is one of Harvard's favorite
enjoyments, He is a Hi-fi
' f a n and has a collection of
some 80 albums "of most anything
you want." Dixieland and
piano music top the list of his
favorites. He also enjoys bowling—
but there hasn't been too
much time for it amidst his numerous
activities.
Bryant is a natural leader—
on or off the gridiron. Presently
he is the president of the
"A" Club, and a member of the
KA social fraternity. "I'm trying
to make it a real honor to
be in the 'A' club," says Harvard.
"A" Club Follies and an

has to further interest in the
club. Bryant also served as Secretary

What can you do? You rack
your brain for a new and different
way to state it, but it all
boils down to this: PiKA walked
away with another trophy
last week.
Finishing first in the 880 relay,
100 yard dash, 220 yard
dash, pole vault and third in the
mile run, the Pikes won the
track meet with 38 points. The
high scorer for the Pikes, and
the track meet was Lutie Johnston
who crossed the line first
in the 100 and 220 yard dashes
and was anchor man in the 880-
relay.
With 23 points, last year's
track winner KA captured the
second place flag, while PDT
copped the third place honors
with 16 points. The rest of the
teams finished in this fashion:
DSP and SAE tied for fourth
and fifth with 14M2 points, tied
for sixth and seventh were PKT
and KS, each having scored 13
points, eighth place went to
ATO with 11 Vz points; LCA
grabbed ninth place in exchange
for 11 points; and DC, AP, SC
each with eight points tied for
tenth, eleventh and twelftth positions.
Every fraternity participating
in this meet earned points toward
the Intramural Sports Trophy:
PKA 150, KA 135, PDT
120, DSP and SAE 97y2, PKT
and KS 70, ATO, LCA, DC, AP,
SC had 50 points.

ONE OF THE FASTEST MEN in the SEC is Paul Krebs. Paul
runs for the 880 yard relay team and they are considered one
of the finest in the conference. For the track enthusiasts the
Tigers will perform before the public April 18 when they host
Alabama.
Paul Krebs Leads
Auburn Trackmen
One of Auburn's best Southeastern
Conference bets on the
cinders appears to be Paul
Krebs. The stellar half-miler
was a strong contender in SEC
circles last year and the added
experience hasn't hurt him a
bit.
Assistant Track Coach Mel
(52.2 in the snow) Rosen recently
stated that Krebs is having his
best year yet. The Birmingham
boy is definitely in for a big
season.
Krebs is anxious to lower his
time by several seconds this
year and try for the SEC title.
Paul wil be shooting for a 1.51
or thereabouts by the end of
the season.
A rather quiet, soft-spoken
boy, Krebs is a hard worker
and goes about his job with determination.
He puts al his effort
into doing spmething and
always shoots for top spot. Easy
going and mild mannered, Paul
has a great deal of tenacity and
goodness that have made him
the fine performer he is.
Tigers Look Sharp . . .

Alabama was the sixth victim
for the Plainsmen as Auburn
took a hotly contested 8-
number five, and Lockey number
six.
The Tiger par-makers came
through with one of their best
performances of the season, as
they trimmed Alabama's hot-shots,
18Vz to 8%. Bama, featuring
several ex-state high
school champs, were thoroughly
beaten by the Plainsmen in a
most impressive match.
6 battle Monday. The Tigers
jumped off to an early lead,
5-0 at the end of tow innings,
only to see Bama edge ahead
6-5 in the top of the eighth.
Then Charlie Carlan knocked
in the tying run with a single
and Gerald George put the
game on ice with a two-run
run double. A two-run double
by Bo Davis sparked the Tigers
early inning rally.
Southpaw Jim Shirley was
the winner while Walt Massey
took the loss.

"THE BIG WHITE HOUSE," as the Kappa Sigs call it, is the center of the activities of the
fraternity. On the corner of North Gay and Wes t Glenn, the atmosphere around the lot is often
subject to sudden change as the "party 'til midnig ht" part of their pet quotation shifts into the
"study 'til daylight" climax.
Kappa Sigma Story Told
At The Big White House
By DON LOUGHRAN and JANICE DUFFY
The story is set in a large white brick house on the southeast
corner of North Gay and West Glenn. This is the Kappa
Sigma house, and inside an interview is being conducted by
myself and my cohort. At first, all they wanted to talk about
was their wonderful housemother. Mrs. J. P. McLaughlin
is her name, but everyone calls her
"Mother Mac." She has cared for
the Kappa Sigs for eleven years,
and from all indications, she has
very good security for the years
to come. Mother Mac manages the
Kappa Sigma Mothers' Club in
addition to her regular duties.
They finally got around to telling
us about their fraternity, which
proved quite interesting. Their
fraternal order was started in the
year 1400 at the University • of
Bologna, in Italy. After 500 years,
this order came- to the' loveliest
village of the plains. This chapter
is one of 131 chapters in 47 different
states, and their 100 members
and pledges are part of 80,000
actives and alumni in the United
States.
Because they have won the
Sphinx Sing in six out of the last
seven years," this group is "known
for its vocal talent. They get a lot
of practice at their parties. Since
they have many parties—an average
of six combo parties and one
house party per quarter—the
Sphinx Sing is a natural for them.
I believe that they hold a party
record, with 28 parties in one
quarter. This leads one to believe
that they party too much, but a
look at their scholastic average—
consistently in the top five of the
all men's average—disproves this.
Their party and scholastic averages
are' pushed up by a motto,
"Party 'til midnight; study to daylight."
They now hold the Kappa
Sigma Scholastic Award for the
highest scholastic average in the
southeast district.

SCRA Chairman
Announces Dale Of
Next Yean REW
.Tpm, .Gregory, chairman of Be-ligious
Emphasis Week, announced
Monday that the date for
next year's REW has been set for
January 25-28. Gregory explained
that this date has been planned
for the week following the period
when most instructors are
giving their pre-midterm quizzes
and preceding midterm examinations.
'
Another idea under consideration
is expected to stimulate general
interest in religious topics
all year. This would call for a
well-known speaker to appear at
the school each quarter of the
regular school year instead of only
during the few days of REW.
An student who is interested in
working on the planning functions
is urged to leave his name in
the Student Council on Religious
Activities box at the Union Building
desk. Any student affiliated
with a religious denomination
which is not represented in Auburn
may submit the name of a
guest speaker in the same manner.
Neither the main theme or subtopics
have been chosen. Gregory
stressed that his committee would
welcome any suggestions along
these lines.

group of men who may proudly
claim to have balanced hard
studying and hard partying—their

By BEFKE DeRING
During the week of April 13-20,
each county in Alabama will hold
county-wide meetings for Auburn
alumni, parents of students and
legislators.
School officials will ,be present
at each meeting to explain the details
of API's drive to obtain more
funds from the legislature. The
purpose of. these gatherings is to
acquaint the general public with
Auburn's problems and needs.
Joe Sarver, executive secretary
of the Alumni Association, emphasized
that the success of the county
meetings depends largely on the
student body. Since the meetings
will not be publicized very extensively
in each county, Auburn students
are urged to write their
parents informing them of t he
time and place of the meetings. A
complete schedule for each county,
including date and location is listed
below.
In each county a 30-minute film
will be shown entitled "Blueprint
for Progress," after which t he
school representative will answer
questions directed from the floor.
The film is a graphic presentation
of the areas in which the school
is considered lacking.

"New" Sorority Enters Competion
Main Attraction At Annual Derby
They'll be off and running on
April 25th when the Sigma Chi's
present their annual derby on the
lawn of the Social Center. At two
o'clock representatives from all
sororities on campus will be at
the starting gate trying to win,
hoping to place, praying at least
to show in the big race patterned
after the Kentucky Derby.
The derby is a tradition of long
standing in Sigma Chi chapters
all over the country. It includes
many events such as: a pie eating
contest, raw egg tossing, a
surprise event, and "sledge the
pledge."
Also in the running will be a
"sorority" called Phi Iota Gamma,
made up of volunteer Sigma
Chi's. The PIG's will be holding
their colors high in hopes of defeating
the more conservative sororities.
Traditionally, the "crowning"
event of the day will be the announcement
of the new Sigma
Chi sweetheart.
One of the most exciting privileges
of the day is that all girls
will be allowed to wear Bermuda
shorts on campus.

Greek life on the Auburn campus serves a
three-fold purpose — academic achievement,
character development, and social education.
Since fraternity and sorority members make up
about a third of the campus population the
great responsibility of these groups is evident.
A competitive spirit in the scholastic field
exists between individual sororities and fraternities.
In no case are academic requirements
of Greek organizations lower than those of the
college, and in most cases they are higher. Each
member of these groups is encouraged to strive
for higher scholastic goals, not only to build his
own reputation but that of the fraternity or
sorority as well.
Living in close contact with other college
students, Greek members learn to get along with
their fellow men. Traits of honesty, sense of
responsibility, and leadership are built into the
basic characteristics of these men and women.
Greeks enter into the social situation not
only in parties but also in their teas, banquets
and formats. Thus the social niceties as well
as personality development are learned. A
fundamental axiom of the Greeks is that the
art of getting along with people is basic and
very important throughout life. .

Activities of fraternities and sororities continue
throughout the school year. Football games
and related functions take the spotlight during the
fall quarter. Comes the Georgia-Tech game and
pledges are busily turning out floats for the Pa-jama
Parade in which all freshmen participate.
Fraternity men work far into the night before
Homecoming completing house decorations.
Parties run rampant.
Winter quarter ushers in the formal season,
a big season for all the Greeks. Weekend house
parties accompanying the dances provide enjoyment
for everyone. Climaxing this quarter is
Greek Week during which fraternities and sorority
members are encouraged to find out more about
other Greek groups. Winding up Greek Week is
the IFC dance featuring a name band and presentation
of the Greek Goddess, a member of one
of the sororities chosen by fraternity men. Skit
night put on by Greek members finishes this quarter.
A season of house parties in Florida is in the
spring. Sunburns and tanned faces are the order
of the day. Participation in Village Fair is taken
on by the Greeks. Close to the end of the quarter
is the annual Sphinx Sing, a choral competition
for the Greeks.
Each year is a bigger one than that preceding
for members of the fraternities and sororities.

Jukeboxes, Costumes
At Fraternity Parties
By SANDY ROSS
Plainsman Society Editor
Costume parties and jukeboxes have apparently become
the fad at most of Auburn's fraternity houses. Everything
from a beach party to a hillbilly party was given last weekend
with music provided mostly by records.
Kappa Sigma couldn't wait for the houseparty time to
arrive so they had a beach party
on Friday with a combo playing
the music.
Phi Delta Theta provided nickels
for their Jukebox party on Friday
as did Sigma Chi.
Sigma Pi decided to get away
from home cooking and had a wei-ner
roast on Friday night.
Tau Kappa Epsilon stayed at
home on Friday and had a house
dance.
Delta Chi had a ball at the
military brawl parly on Saturday.
A record player provided the
marching music.
Kappa Alpha turned hillbilly
and stomped their feet to the music
of the Rhythm Aces.
Lambda Chi Alpha jumped to
the music of the jukebox at their
Juke Jump on Saturday.
Phi Delta Theta entertained with
a Bowery Ball on Saturday with
the Amvets of Montgomery playing
the music.
Delta Zela wanted to show mothers
the ways and woes of college
life and invited them to a
Mother's Party on Saturday. The
theme of t h e party was "The
Greatest Show On Earth." They
attended t h e First Methodist
Church on Sunday.
With Tuesday came the exchange
of pledges. Those swapping
were Delta Sigma Phi and Chi
Omega; Phi Delta Theta and Alpha
Gamma Delta; and Sigma Chi
and Kappa Delta.

Student Places,
Wins Automobile
Don W. Powell, 20-year-old pre-med
student at API recently
learned officially from Liggett &
Myers Tobacco Company that he
had won second prize—a 1959
Ford "Country Squire" station
Wagon—in the recently concluded
Velvet Tobacco national contest.
Powell, who lives at the Alpha
Tau Omega House in Auburn,
learned of the Velvet contest in
The Plainsman. "Spend the Rest
of Your Life on Velvet," the contest
read, and "Win $500-A-Year
Vacation Money for Life." Don
came mighty close to doing just
that. His entry explaining why he
wanted to spend the rest of his
life on Velvet — ' ' A m e r i c a ' s
Smoothest Smoke," w a s judged
second best.
One thing f o r sure, Powell's
folks who l i v e in Hattiesburg,
Miss., have a treat in store when
their son next makes it home
"Riding on Velvet.".
First prize, a choice between
$500-a-year for life or $5,000 cash,
was won by Fahy N. Replogle
of Kansas City, Missouri; and also
included in the total of 1,017 prizes
were five Johnson 35 h.p. "Sea
Horse" outboard motors, ten RCA
Victor All-Transistor portable
radios a n d 1,000 "Kaywoodie
Standard" pipes. The Velvet contest
started September 16 and ran
through December 31, 1958.

they will soon be on the rampage

Dear Modine,
A friend of. mine has developed

he gets a gleeful look in his eye
and away he goes. How can we
cure him?

Dear Worried,
Don't cure him, hire him!

Dear Modine,
I can not keep awake in my
classes. In each of my lectures
classes I find myself nodding
before the period is half over.
This infuriates my instructors
and I have tried every method
I know of to prevent this. I tried
drinking 4 cups of coffee before
each of these classes (I got
sick), stickiug myself with a pin
in class (I got sick at the sight
of the blood), sitting by an open
window (I developed pneumonia),
and even sleeping at

Kappa Alpha Order Is
Last Southern Stronghold
Scholastics And Politics Reign Supreme-
Old South Ball Is Still Biggest Party
By DON LOUGHRAN and JANICE DUFFY
Fearsomely venturing toward the Kappa Alpha house,
we wondered if they would recognize our yankee accents.
Cautiously we approach Fort Kappa Alpha, the last remaining
stronghold of the Confederacy. There it stood, massive in
its ante bellum architecture, defying us to enter.
I wanted to procrastinate, but

The Pi Chapter of Cwens, organized
locally in 1957, will tap
new members during spring quarter.
Cweris is a national honor society
for sophomore women.
A nomination board, composed
of outstanding women on campus,
selects the new members who
are tapped during their freshman
year. Membership selection is
based on scholarship, participation
in school activities, and leadership
qualities. Initiation is held
in May following the tapping
ceremonies by the nomination and
selection committee at the honor
convention.
Cwens sponsors several service
projects on campus including the
tea for the "Miss Village Fair"
contestants, which is also attended
by Squires, the men's sophomore
honor society.
In addition, Cwens takes part
in giving the Foreign Students
Party, passing out programs at
the concert and lecture series,
aiding freshman during orientation,
and joins with Squires in
sponsoring "Hey Day."
To raise money for the projects
undertaken by their organization,
the members will sell donuts in'
the dormitories Sunday morning

Phi Delta Theta Gives
Time To Service Project
The clearance of a wooded area
on South Gay Street tomorrow
for the construction of a park is
the project chosen by members of
Phi Delta Theta Fraternity as a
"Community Service Day." In
dedicating a full day of toil to the
project, the undergraduates of the
Alabama Beta Chapter will labor
as one among 120 chapters of Phi
Delta Theta, all doing community
service work in their communities—
114 in the United States and
six in Canada. All the chapters
devote their massed man hours in
this kind of civic service work on
one spring day of each year.
Last year the Auburn "Phi Delt"
chapter cleaned and painted Sunday
school rooms for the Presbyterian
Church. F o r Saturday,
Larry Stephens of the fraternity
chapter will be the Work Master,
and not only the members of. the
chapter, but some of the alumni of
the fraternity, will tackle the job.
Phi Delta Theta's "Community
Service Day" was instituted as an
annual feature of this fraternity's
calendar on an international basis
in 1956, and has won praise from
city, college, and legislative officials
for the good that was accomplished
in the past. Besides this,
the fraternity's headquarters at
Oxford, Ohio, has spurred the collegians'
efforts by setting up a
system of awards, much valued
within the ranks of the collegians
themselves, for the most beneficial,
or most impressive jobs of
public work that are done.

The crowning of the new Rose
marked the beginning of a gay
weekend for Pi Kapps and their
dates. Breakfast was served at the
fraternity house following the formal
with the jazz music of Luke
Richerson. A picnic was enjoyed
at the lake Saturday followed by
softball, football, and other activities.
Saturday night Batman's
Combo provided the music at the
Standard Club in Columbus for an
informal party. Sunday morning
was church time after which
lunch was served and the weekend
was brought to an end.
5-B—THE PLAINSMAN Friday, April 10, 1959
my cohort said, "You go in first."
I was greatly surprised by the
warm reception they gave us. Just
before the interview began, my
now-brave cohort whispered four
immortal words into my ear.
"They think we're Southerners."
We soon learned that there is no
Kappa Alpha fraternity. Kappa
Alpha is ah order, religious in
feeling, rooted in the Christian
faith, and steeped in Southern tradition.'
And to them—47,000 active
and alumni members — General
Robert E. Lee is more than Commander
of t h e Confederate
Armies, he is t h e Spiritual
Founder of the Order. The Order
was born at Washington College
at Lexington, Virginia on December
21, 1865, and API's Nu Chapter
received its charter on November
24, 1883. There are forts
and outposts in 26 different states
south or west of the Mason-Dixon
carrying on the cause.
Gaining a false sense of. security
by my success, I prodded them
into talking about the "Old South"
Ball, and talk they did! The ball
starts on May 1st, and it includes
a call to arms, presentation of
awards, a mint julep session, and
the formal that night. The next
day starts off with brunch. The
rest of the day is devoted to. a gala
barbecue at the lake, and that
night all attend the Sharecroppers'
Stomp. Oh yes, they said there
would probably be a certain
amount of harassment from carpetbaggers
and scallawags during
the ceremonies, but this year they
are loading the cannon to quell
nuisances.
My cohort peeked around from
behind me and said, "Y'all do
much in scholastics and extracurricular
activities out cher?"
Then I thought that we never
would get out of there. They told
us about their trophies, scholastic
averages, parties, and politics.
Now politics is something they
are really active in. As a matter
of fact, they have four men running
for offices in the spring election,
and they are sponsoring a
girl for the title of "Miss Auburn."
While we were leaving the
house after closing the interview,
I said, "Gladtametchyooseguys." I
knew I had slipped, and by the
time I turned around, my cohort
was out of sight. I smiled at them
meekly, but they laughed and
said, "We knew all along that
y'all were yankees."

many of them, in fact, that this cigarette
outsells every other —every filter, every

now for 10 straight years. The Camel blend
of costly tobaccos has never been equalled
for rich flavor and easygoing mildness.

51 Attend Meet
Of English Club
Fifty-one students majoring in
English from School of Science
and Literature and from the
School of Education attended the
organizational meeting of an English
literary society on campus
which was held Monday, March
31. The establishment of a national
English honorary society
for English majors at API is the
ultimate objective of the new
club.
Dr. Walton R. Patrick, head of
the English department, opened
the meeting by presenting five
aims of the organization. The aims
included bringing about a closer
relationship between English majors
and the faculty in the English
department, giving English majors
a campus identity, providing
an opportunity for people of similar
interests at the same and different
class levels to become better
acquainted, providing services
around the campus such as entertaining
distinguished authors who
visit Auburn annually and preparing
t h e English Department
display for Village Fair, and promoting
programs that would enable
English majors to enlarge
their knowledge of their major
subject. Also addressing the
group was Dr. Paul W. Scheid, associate
professor of education. He
emphasized the importance of belonging
to professional societies
especially in the field of education.
A questionnaire concerning
the type of club in which the students
were interested was distri-

Ratification of the constitution
will take place at the next meeting
to be held in May, and club
officers will be elected at the beginning

for the club.
