Fund Drive
Exceeds Goal
Set By Sarver
w- By L. O. Brackeen
- Pledges and contributions to the Emergency Fund Drive
have exceeded the $250,000 minimum goal, Joseph B. Sarver,
Jr., alumni executive secretary, announced last week.
Actual cash on hand is $164,903. Another $93,991 is in
pledges which are to be paid by Feb. 15.
"When these pledges are paid,
we will have reached a total of
$258,894 and can count the emer­gency
fund campaign a success,"
. says Sarver. "Meanwhile, addi­tional
cash contributions will be
helpful. The $250,000. goal repre­sents
minimum cash requirements
needed immediately to launch a
fdll scale effort to regain accredi­tation
in electrical and mechani­cal
engineering."
Dean Fred H. Pumphrey of the
school of "engineering greeted an­nouncement
of the campaign's
success with a statement that this
"gives a real boost to our efforts
to regain accreditation."
Pumphrey previously had an­nounced
that several additional
faculty members had been ap­pointed,
others are expected to be
signed before the. start of the API
fall quarter in September,-new
equipment has been ordered, and
curriculum changes have been ef­fected,
along with other moves,
to regain accreditation. '
"Principal credit for the suc­cess
of our emergency fund cam­paign
should go to Roy B. Sewell
and Frank P. Samford, chairman
.and vice-chairman of the cam­paign,
and to their more than 400
solicitors working in Alabama's
€7-«?unt.ies..and in 15_cities out­side
tHe "State;" Sarver-dscIarMr~r
Both Sewell and Samford have
been active.in alumni affairs for
many years. Mr. Sewell is presi­dent
of the Auburn Alumni As­sociation
and is president of the
Sewell ' Manufacturing Co., of
Bremen, Ga. Mr. Samford is a
member of the API Board of
Trustees and is president of Lib­erty
National Life Insurance Co.,
Birmingham.
Sewell, after expressing pleas­ure
at the success of the cam­paign
to date, said that he hopes
that additional gifts and pledges
will come in. He reminded that
the $250,000 goal was a "minimum
asking" to put the electrical -and
mechanical departments on their
feet and to re-tool the API engi­neering
program to a program
for the future.
In an. analysis of the campaign
gifts and pledges, Mr. Sewell re­vealed
that a number of sizable
contributions were received from
corporations, friends -o£_^Auburn,.
and parents of students.
API President Ralph Draughon
congratulated' the Alumni Asso­ciation
"upon t h i s magnificent
show of loyalty" and expressed
the conviction that Auburn's en­gineering
departments are on the
vyay to regaining accredited sta­tus.
Dr. Draughon announced sev­eral
weeks ago that the Alabama
Legislature will be asked to in­crease—
the J annual engineering
school "appropfi-a tk)n-l-by_L?4H$C9_
annually to continue work initi­ated
with money from the emer­gency
fund.

API Agricultural Programs
To Be Studied By Experts
Former Wisconsin President Heads
Consultants Named By Draughon
A board of four nationally-known scientists-educators has
been named to make a study of Auburn's agricultural pro­gram
with a view to enabling API "to move into the future
with a strong agricultural program of maximum value to our
state," President Ralph B. Draughon announced Wednesday
afternoon.
Three top-flight agricultural
leaders and one home economics
expert will make the study and
recommendations.
The board of consultants was
named upon request of the board
of trustees that President Ralph
Draughon "make a report at the
next meeting on our whole pro­gram
of agriculture—instruction,
research, and extension."
Present plans are for the con­sultants
to start their study next
Wednesday, Aug. 13, and to spend
as much time as is needed to do
"a complete and thorough job."
Members of the board are Dr.
Edwin B. Fred, president emeri­tus,
the University of Wisconsin,
Madison, Wis., chairman; Dr.
Norman Volk, Purdue Univer­sity,
LaFayette, Ind.; Dr. W. A.
Sutton, director of agricultural
extension, University of Georgia,
Athens, Ga.; and Dr. Jesse Woo-ten
Harris, dean, college of home
economics, University of Tennes­see,
Knoxville, Tenn.
I In asking the consultants to
serve on the board, Dr. Draughon
said: "There is under way, pres­ently,
a study of the entire edu­cational
system of Alabama. The
study is under the direction of the
' Educational Study Commission
which is composed of legislators,
citizens and educators. It is ex­tremely
important that our agri­cultural
programs be properly
presented in this study. This is
especially true in that the Com­mission
is asking each institution
to project its plans forward for
ten years, with accompanying es­timates
of financial requirements.
The Commission must complete
its study and make recommenda­tions
on or about Jan. 1, 1959.
"The study is to include (1)
; present effectiveness of our entire
agricultural programs, and (2) a
;study„of- means—tcr provide, the
best possible program of agri­cultural
instruction, research, and
extension within the anticipated
income for these services.
Consultant Coming
to Help Draw Up
API Building Loan
George C. Decker, chief, con­struction
and planning develop­ment,
United States Office of
Education, Washington, D. C,
will spend Aug. 11-13 in Auburn
advising "on the development of
campus plans."
Mr. Decker comes to Auburn
at the request of President Ralph
B. Draughon following approval
by the board of trustees of a
Draughon proposal that applica­tion
be made for loans for class­room
and library buildings as
soon as the government makes
funds available for construction
of educational buildings.
Possibility of a multi-million
dollar federal loan to Auburn for
new buildings is contained in the
pending bill which would autho­rize
the Federal Housing and
Home Finance Agency to lend
colleges $125 million. The bill
cleared the Senate under the
sponsorship of Senator John
Sparkman and is being handled
in the House by Rep. Carl El­liott
of Jasper.
President Draughon told the
API board that in event the leg­islation
passes, he proposed to
file applications for a loan with
which to build a new library,
chemistry laboratory and class­rooms,
and a combination audi­torium-
field house. A new gen­eral
library—is Auburn's most
pressing buiidingneed, Draughon
said.
Phi Kappa Phi To
Initiate 31 Students
Phi Kappa Phi, honorary scho­lastic
fraternity, Alabama Poly­technic
Institute, will initiate 31
,new members August 14.
The fraternity is the highest
ranking scholastic honorary on
the campuses of land-grant col­leges.
Speaker for the initiation ban­quet
will be Dr. Fred Allison,

Win Top Honors
The "Chewacla Bowman," Au­burn's

with, as usual, more than its share
of trophys.
The Auburn bowmen, led by
Larry Guinn, placed first in the

A division, and also the
bowman, novice, and junior boys
division.
The club was founded in 1948

API To Launch
3-Million Dollar
Building Program
Possibility that API might soon
launch a multi-million dollar
building program was revealed
last week at a meeting of the
board of trustees.
President Ralph B. Draughon
advised the board that pending
legislation in Washington prob­ably
will authorize the Federal
Housing and Home Finance Agen­cy
to issue $125 million in loans
for this type of college construc­tion.
The legislation, sponsored joint­ly
by Alabama's Senator John
Sparkman and Rep. Carl Elliott,
already has cleared the Senate
and will come up in the House
in a few days.
Funds from the loan would be
used to finance the construction
of a new general library, chem­istry
laboratory and classrooms,
and a combination auditorium
and field house.
"I believe it will pass," said
Draughon. "If it does there will
be a very good possibility that
we can acquire funds for the lib­rary
building, which is our most
pressing need, and these other
facilities."
The board authorized Dr.
Draughon to proceed with pre­liminary
plans in case the bill
passed.
bum Club has had the greatest
percentage of its members pres­ent.
The club is composed of API
professors and students, and is
open to anyone interested in ar­chery.
Anyone interested in "Ameri­ca's
fastest-growing o u t d o or
sport," should contact President
Larry Guinn.

sponsored Ugly Men who received
Votes at one cent each.
The pencil sharpeners were in­stalled

degrees in structural engineering
at the University of Illinois. Since
1945 he has also served as an as­sociate
professor "of civil engi­neering
at the University of Mis­souri.
Gerald Eugene Tanger will
come to Auburn after receiving
his Doctor's degree from Okla­homa
State University this month.
Tanger has taught at several
schools and gathered practical ex­perience
in working for Boeing
Airplane Co.
Six other professors will also
begin teaching at Auburn for
the first time this Fall.
Dr. Melville Priest will assume
the duties of CE department head.
Dr. Priest came to API in Sep­tember
of 1955 from a job as
United Nations consultant in hy­draulic
research to the Egyptian
Government. He is also a mem­ber
of Chi Epsilon, Sigma Xi, and
Phi Mu Epsilon honoraries.
The former CE department
head, Dr. Earl I. Brown, has been
promoted to Assistant Dean of
Engineering.
When Dean Pumphrey was
asked about the possibilities of
reaccreditation by next spring he
said, "we're still hopeful, but
we can't be sure."
let Ace Now Hitting
Books Instead Of Migs
>jr)
BY JIM HUGHES
Remember when the newspaper
headlines read "eight communist
jets shot down over Korea today,"
and how the whole nation admired
the guys who flew and fought at
supersonic speed and altitudes up
to 50,000 feet? Well, unknown to
most of us, one of those ex-"sup-ersonic
tigers" has been quietly
persuing his studies on our cam­pus
since his release from active
duty. In fact, he's been SO.quiet
about his war stories, that he al­most
graduated and got away be­fore
your Plainsman staff could
get his story. However, thanks to
John Barton, the local airport
manager where this tiger works
part time as a flying instructor,
we were able to track him down
and after hours of pleading, (to
say he's modest is an understate­ment),
he told us of some of his
experiences.
Our tiger's name is Harry
Jones, he's a graduating senior
in Mechanical Engineering, and
he plans to work at North
American Aircraft in California
this fall. As for his illustrious
war record, he has two dis­tinguished
flying crosses, four
air medals, and three MIG
communist jets to his credit.
Harry was a member of the now
famous 335th fighter-intercep­tor
squadron, from which a
clear majority of our jet "aces"
came. (A jet ace is one who has
I shot down at least five enemy
aircraft.) Harry's first "kill,"
(and his first DFC medal,) came
: in a dogfight at very lot alti­tude,
only about 500 to 1,000
feet. As Harry describes it,
"they came swarming in low at
us, fiirng their guns. I just slid
over and shot one down," that's
Harry's story. The citation that
went with his medal read some­what
differently, and the words
"courage" and "bravery" were
used rather freely.
Harry's second victory came
only five days after the first, and
he had to share this one with an­other
pilot who hit the MIG first.
Harry and another pilot were
chasing a MIG at about 4,500 feet,
and the pilot was finally able to.
hit it and slow it down, although
he exhausted his ammunition in
the process. So, as Harry says
again "I got in some hits and he
exploded." (He always makes it
sound so simple. Remember
though, most of this happened at
speeds of up to 600 miles an hour!)
Harry's third and probably his
most "hairy" kill was during what
was probably the highest battle in
history. Harry's flight was flying
at an altitude of about 51,000 feet
and were chasing a flight of MIGS
which were slightly above and
ahead of them. However, since
the air is so thin up there they
couldn't pull the nose of their
aircraft up to fire at the MIGs
without stalling their own planes.
< Finally after several unsucces-j
sf ul attempts by the group to pull
up and fire at the MIGs, Harry
succeeded- in getting in position
behind one of. the red planes and
opened fire, hitting the MIG sev­eral
times in the tail section.
i But, while Harry's guns were
firing, he experienced an "ex­plosive
decompression" which
caused all the pressurized air to
rush out of the cockpit of his
plant. This cause his "Mae West
life jacket to inflate, filling the

cockpit, and he just had time to
puncture it before he passed out
from oxygen starvation. Harry
came to at an altitude of only''
7,000 feet, after falling nearly nine
miles straight down! Says Harry, •
"God brought me back from that
one."
We "could relate more of Har­ry's
illustrious . experiences but"
we promised we wouldn't. So,i
thanks Harry, for everything, and
good luck on your new engineer-,
ing career.
63 SAM Members Visit Country Club,
4 Industrial Plants Around Dothan Area
By Tim Battle
The A P I chapter of t h e Society for t h e Advancement of
Management recently sponsored a plant inspection tour of
four p l a n t s i n and around Dothan, Ala. The p l a n t s visited w e re
Covington Planter, Domco Manufacturing, Hayes Aircraft
(Helicoptor Division), and Headstrom Union.
Including 63 management stu­dents
and two faculty members,
Professors C. N. Cobb and W. H.
Coppedge, the group visited two
plants each in the morning and
afternoon, with the noon meal be­ing
held at the Dothan Country
Club.
Headstrom Union, a toy manu­facturer,
proved to be most in­teresting
because of its high de­gree
of activity in preparing for
the Christmas rush. The Southern
division of a nationwide toy com­pany,
Headstrom Union incorpo­rates
the operations of converting
stock material brought from out­side
sources into pre-fab parts,
and then assembly into the final
product. With its relatively com
plex routing system, it proved to
be one of the high points of the
trip.
Domco is a process industry in­volving
the conversion of peanuts
or grains into oil for cooking pur­poses.
Its activity has recently
been markedly decreased due to
the Eisenhower soil bank plan.
The farm goods are not coming to.
the plant as before because the
fanner, under compensation from
the plan for not growing crops,
has recently lessened his farming
activity.
Also affected by the farming
situation is Covington Planter, a
manufacturer of seed spreaders.
With an operational method such
as Headstrom Union's, Covington
Planter is a fabrication-assembly
plant involving the fabricating of
stock material and assembly into
final product, but with a relative­ly
simpler routing system than
that found at Headstrom Union.
Hayes Aircraft, the helicopter
division of the larger company, is
located on an airfield outside of
Dothan. Currently under an Ar­my
contract, it includes in its
operations the renovation and in­spection
of the troop transport%
helicopter. After being flown in
by an Army pilot, the helicopter
undergoes rigorous renovation,
including repainting, rewiring*
and other adjustments deemed
necessary. It is then test flown,
by first a Haye's. inspector and
then an Army inspector.
Flu Vaccine Shots >
To Be Issued
Again This Fall
Asiatic flu vaccine shots will
be available at the beginning of
Fall quarter the college infir-firmary
reported this week. The
shots will be given free to all
students.
Two shots aire "required for
complete immunization, therefore
students should be vaccinated as
soon as possible. The second shot
is needed three weeks after the
first.
The vaccine has been improved
over last year's variety to in-«
elude several other types of flu<
Asiatic flu ran rampant among
Auburn students last winter re­sulting
in considerable amount of
loss in class time. Students are
requested to take advantage of
this opportunity.

AUBURN'S SPORT PICTURE
ASISEEFT I
| WITH JIM PHILLIPS 1
Whot's this thing called gridiron rivalry?
Have you ever walked down a dark alley and come out staring
at a guy poking a gun in your face?
Gridiron rivalry works in the same way. It's full of surprises. But
these surprises can be explained. When any ' 1
team works up a great amount of spirit for an
opponent perenially hated, they'll be tough to
deal with, even though their favored opposition
has reached a similar razor-sharp condition. It's
but little wonder then, why traditional classics in
'which keen rivalry is an element, provide foot­ball
at its best.
Few Auburnites fully understand the facts
behind Florida's domination of the Tigers every
other year when the playing site changes to
their Gainesville campus. Florida would rather i Phillips
beat Auburn than any other team on their schedule, including Mi­ami.
Playing in a state where there's no traditional SEC opponent,
the Gators pinpoint the Auburn game as the one they must win.
But for us, that game is usually just another conference outing.
Our chances of beating these Floridians greatly lesson under such
psychological conditions. Even though we usually field the better
team, they want us more than we want them.
Coach Bowden Wyatt's Tennessee squad is another which
faces an out-of-state rival, usually weaker than they, but always
capable of wrecking havoc on the Vols. In addition to their Van-derbilt
rivalry, Tennessee must contend with Kentucky's Wild­cats.
Like Florida, the Cats had to pick an out-of-state opponent
for their biggest game, as there's no one else to battle there in the
blue grass country.
Last season the Wildcats dumped Tennessee, 20-6, for their
lone SEC win. Ih eleven games including a successful Gator Bowl
appearance, the Volunteers were beaten only by Auburn, Missis­sippi,
and hapless Kentucky.
After losing to Georgia Tech every year since 1948, the Bull­dogs
from Georgia finally rose to the occasion last fall, taking the
Yellow Jackets, 7-0. On paper Tech appeared the favorite, as they
had topped a strong squad from Duke and possessed three other
wins and a pair of ties, one with tough Florida. Although the
battered Bulldogs had frightened Auburn's National Champions
two weeks earlier by holding the count to 6-0, they weren't ex­pected
to put forth another great effort in their biggest traditional
game, after meeting heart-breaking defeat in a somewhat lesser
renewal of rivalry with us that same month. Only Kentucky and
Tulane, in SEC play, had fallen to Wally Butt's squad, but the de­termination
those boys showed when they met their hated oppon­ents
in Tech's backyard that afternoon, led them to such a domi­nation
of play that a 7-0 score will never fully describe that game.
Playoffs Ready To Begin
BY IRBY McCALLA
Intramurals Writer
Softball play was highlighted
by several outstanding pitching
performances, featuring two no-hit
games. In the first instance,
Lane Smith allowed Alpha
Lambda no hits and struck out
eight as Theta Chi won 20-3.
Smith walked five and lost a
shutout only when his fielding
support slackened.
Hollis McKinley recorded the
second no-hitter only four days
after Smith's rariety as he and
his PKT teammates defeated
DSP 10-0. McKinley struck out
twelve batters and walked two,
the only players to reach first
base against him. He received
perfect support from his team­mates
as' only three balls were
hit to the outfield off McKin-'
ley.
Jim McDowell, LCA, and his
pitching opponent, Ronnie Robbs
of PKT, were the whole story
as LCA defeated PKT, 3-2, in
unquestinably the best game of
the season. McDowell struck
out five and allowed only two
hits. Robbs gave up only three
hits and struck out thirteen, one
more than his no-hit pitching
teammate, McKinley. McDowell
drove in all of his team's runs
with a tremendous home run

accounted for both PKT runs

base at the time.

Reaching back into Auburn's football annals of sixteen seasons
past, the most striking example of what can happen in a traditional
game may be found. Georgia, in that 1942 campaign, had gone un­scathed
through the first nine Saturdays of the season. Meeting
Auburn, not too dangerous with only a 4-4-1 record, the Rose
Bowl -bound Bulldogs were strongly favored. But not even the
great Frank Sinkwich could turn the tables in the Georgians' favor
that day. Auburn's determination in the face of a superior oppon­ent
carried the Tigers through to a 27-13 decision, usually con­sidered
the greatest Auburn win of all time. Call it just another
Upset if you will. But in the tradition of the game, I don't think so.
Rivalry can beat you quicker than anything, especially when
you aren't expecting it to. But this new edition of Tigei-s, our De­fending
National Champions, will be tough every Saturday be­cause
they'll be aware of the danger rival spirit asserts. When you
are on top, they want you most.

Ticket Plan Formed For Opening Game; First Pep Rally Set
Tentatively, the Auburn field
house has set up a plan for
selling tickets to next fall's
Tennessee opener. Definite in­formation
will be jnailsd:
sii;c-rri:r residences during the
week prior to the game.
With registration starting on
September 23 and the game set
for four days later, a comple­tion
of all student ID cards is a
virtual impossibility. The cash­ier's
receipt for payment of
registration fees will be used
as student identification. Under
the current plan, it must be
presented when purchasing tic­kets.
During registration w e e k,
only tickets to the Tennessee
contest will be sold. On Sep­tember
30, regular sales will
open for the remaining nine
games of the season. ID cards
will be mandatory for ticket
purchase at that time.

•' As time grows near for the
pigskin to start flying, every
Auburn man is wondering what
the situation will be in the com­ing-
Plainsman season.
One of the big questions that
is readily brought to mind is
this—how are we set at the
fullback slot? Big "Ace" At-
"Shug" plans to replace such a
stalwart figure in the roster.
If the past season's reserve
power is any indication of what
to expect from the '58 Tigers,
things look good. Merging from
these ranks to fill the shoes of
hard-hitting Atkins, is a Chat­tanooga
product, Ronnie Robbs.
Ronnie, who will be starting
his junior season, has proved

himself in the past two years at
Auburn. For the '56 edition of
the Baby Tigers, Robbs played
good ball at the fullback slot
and established a reputation
there to watch out for. As a
sophomore, when Ronnie had
the chance to fill in for the
"Ace", opponents found that
Auburn wasn't a mere first
team power, as evidenced when
he and teammate, Lamar Raw-son,
led the impressive second
attack.
Summing up the situation for
1958 after last fall, it seemed
that the fullback position was
still one of some question even
with Ronnie playing the ball
that he did last year as Atkins'
fill-in. Then spring drills rolled
around and Big Ron made his
- bid again. After fine showings
in the spring practice, Ronnie
was listed as starting fullback
for the Blue squad in the A-Day
game. Here he romped in
splendid style as his squad sped
' to victory, 7-6, over the under­dog
Orange team. After this
showing, Ronnie was believed
to be Mr. Atkin's successor. The
only thing seemingly in his way
was a back injury sustained in
the spring workouts.
With back in fine shape after
a summer's rest and with spirit
"equal to the task ahead, it seems
that Ronnie will be the one to
fill the shoes of Atkins, Au­burn's
leading scorer in the
past season with 82 points.
Ronnie's reaction to the task
that he has to fulfill, mainly of
matching Atkins, is "Well, I
know it's going to be mighty
tough, but I'm out to do my
best. My main hope is that the
team will do just as well as last
year, and I think it will."
Modestly acknowledging the
strong competition from other
backs, Jimmy Reynolds and Ed
Dyas, Ronnie is already expres­sing
his desire to meet his big
challenge in the oncoming
campaign.
Displaying knowledge, ex­perience,
and ability, Ronnie
will be one to watch as the
Tigers take the field in the fall.
You can bet he won't be a dis­appointment.
By BONNIE McCULLAB?
Ifs a small world . . .
"When I was at Iowa University, all I ever heard about was
this fellow named Richard Sailings, who won the highJiurdles in
the 1932 Olympics. Now, I am beginning to hear about the guy
who beat him," (Percy Beard) are the words of men's physical
education instructor, Melvin Rosen, after reading last week's
Spotlight on Sports.
Auburn's got a peach in Bobby Hunt. ..
Lanett's, now Auburn's—Bobby Hunt put the finishing touches
to one of the most brilliant high school football
careers ever staged in the State of Alabama in
last Thursday's high school AU-Star jgame at
Tuscaloosa. *
The speedy quarterback massacred the
North's attack with his outstanding signal call­ing
and defensive performance.
His end runs earned for his Southern mates
two big touchdowns. Hunt also bootecf a point
after for a total of 13 points and an afternoon
well spent on the gridiron.
Congratulations are in order for . . .
Ralph "Shug" Jordan on being selected the "Coach of the
Year" by the Texas Sports Roundup Association.
And "Sports Publicist, Bill Be'ckwith, for a job well done on
the 1958 edition of the Auburn Football Brochure. This year's
book certainly deserves No. 1 rating along with the fighting Tigers.
Preseason polls . . .
Auburn is being picked as the team to beat in the South and
they are usually rated about third in the nation.
You will find when looking through the football magazines
that the Tigers have more All-American potential than any other
