Council of Deans alters
residence requirements
Eligibility ruling, technical changes,
other revisions noted by policy group
By ELLEN SCOUTEN
Last quarter, the Council of Deans approved a policy con­taining
a revision of the requirements for Continuation in Re­sidence.
As stated in the 1959-60 Tiger Cub, the present minimum
requirements for a student's continuation in residence during
his first through fourth quarters
is: "Pass a minimum of 50 per
cent of the total number of credit
hours attempted through the 1st,
2nd, 3rd, or 4th quarters in resi­dence,
and also accumulate not
less than an equal number of
honor points." The revised regu­lation
not only changes this re­quirement,
but clarifies it some­what:
"At the end of the Spring
Quarter, a student must have
earned credit hours and grade
points equal to 60 per cent of all
work attempted at Auburn dur­ing
his first through fourth quar­ters
of college residence at Au­burn
and elsewhere."
The obvious change is that the
requirement for the first four
quarters of residence has been
raised from 50 percent to 60 per­cent.
However, there will be no
change in the present require­ments
concerning students in
quarters beyond the fourth. An­other
difference is that under the
new ruling, transfer students will
be held responsible only for the
work they have attempted at Au­burn
in meeting this requirement.
* * *
A TECHNICAL CHANGE, il­lustrated
in the above rule is that
the term "honor point" will be­come
simply "grade point." In
another change in terminology,
the "Dean's Honor Roll" has been
made the "Dean's List."
There will be a revision of the
present rule which states, "After
the first quarter of residence at
Auburn University or elsewhere,
a student will be dropped at the
end of any quarter during which
he does not pass at least five
credit hours of work at Auburn."
Beginning September 1960, a stu­dent
will be suspended for a per­iod
of 12 months at the end of
any quarter during which he does
not earn at least five credit hours.

'WAR' CRIES
NOT THE SAME
TO EVERYONE
Auburn's pet phrase caused
consternation to new freshmen
and campus visitors Friday. Cause
of the excitement was the first
fall appearance of The Plainsman.
Big, black letters, three inches
high above the masthead, pro­claimed,
"WAR EAGLE."
A Samford Hall hostess offered
a visitor a complimentary copy of
the paper. Catching o n l y a
glimpse of the headline, he drew
back horrified, thinking war had
been declared.
Freshman men were taken a-back.
At distribution points, the
paper was folded where the word
"WAR" was most prominent. Be­fore
stampeding to check with
draft boards, the freshmen learn­ed
that no scare was intended,
that War Eagle is a way of life
with Auburnites.

Fraternity-Sorority rush successful
say Panhellenic, Inter-Fraternity
By KATHERINE DAVIS
Assistant Editor
This year's fraternity and sorority rush programs have
been deemed quite successful by the presidents of IFC and
Panhellenic. Sorority rush was climaxed by pledging last
Wednesday, while bids were issued Sunday to close out frat­ernity
rush week.
Lin Monroe, president of (he In­ter-
Fraternity Council, had this to
say, "Basically, rush went very
well. From a working standpoint,
it was the best in years. This was
due to the excellent organization
of rush. The IFC made extensive
preparations which were carried
out quite smoothly with very few
mistakes being made."
He went on to explain that un­der
the new organization of IFC,
the rush chairmen of the various
fraternities form an IFC commit­tee,
which is responsible for set­ting
up rush rules. A summary of
the re-organization of IFC will
appear in a forthcoming issue of
The Plainsman, however, Monroe
commented that the advantages of
the new set-up are already evi­dent
from the success with which
rush was conducted under the
new committee.
* * !p
MEMBERS OF Oinicroiv Delta
Kappa and Blue Key acted as po-licement
to check on rush viola­tions.
Monroe called this rush
week "one of the cleanest we've
had," with very few violations oc­curring.
Fraternity men who know
of any breaking of rush rules are
asked to report on them in detail
to the president of the IFC as
soon as possible. The fraternity of
the man making the report will be
kept unknown. Monroe also said
that he will appreciate having
any complaints and criticisms sent
directly to him so that they can
be used to aid in evaluation.
Panhellenic president Harriet
Jenkins is also very enthusiastic
about the outcome of rush. A
record number of girls partici­pated
in sorority rush this year
with 323 receiving bids.
Panhcllenic's system of having
rush advisors continued to work
effectively as did the other or­ganizational
aspects of rush. Every
effort was made by Panhellenic
lo give the rushees an opportuni­ty
to receive a sorority bid, and
those efforts were met with a
large degree of. success.
Sororities complied safisfac'
torily to' the many rules of rush
concerning such matters as bud­gets
and silence periods. The main
thing left to be desired as rush
week closed was for every rushec
to have been on the pledge list of
the sorority of her choice; how­ever,
open rush will provide an­other
opportunity for sororities to
extend bids to those girls not
pledging during formal rush,
thereby remedying this situation
in large part.
// CLAUDIA" TO BE PRESENTED
ON PLAYERS' ANNUAL TOUR
By Glenda Mooney
Rose Franken's "Claudia" will be the show produced by
the Auburn Players on tour during 1960-61.
"Although there are serious moments in the play," ad­vises
Director Peet, "it is largely light and happy comedy
which should appeal to high school students as well as
adults." "Claudia" is scheduled
for presentation on the Auburn
campus shortly before Thanks­giving.
Pcct said it is possible
that one or two out of town show­ings
could be accepted between
that time and Christmas holidays.
Bookings can be made between
January ninth and March first.
P.T.A. groups, civic clubs, wo­men's
clubs, little theatre groups,
high school classes and drama
clubs, and some civic concert se­ries
groups have brought the Au­burn
Players to their communi­ties
in the past. If an active or­ganization
in a town undertakes
the sponsorship, the local profits
after clearing all expenses are
frequently hundreds of dollars. In
some communities, h o w e v e r,
m i n i rri u in prices have been
charged and the Players have
been brought primarily for their
cultural value.
This fall the Auburn Players
commence their forty-second
year of production. They have
toured with dozens of plays which
have been given hundreds of
showings with essentialy profes­sional
standards of performance.

RELIGIOUS LIFE COMMITTEE
SETS FALL-WINTER MEETINGS
Full and winter quarter religious
convocations are being planned by
Auburn's religious life committee.
Both will feature outstanding lec­turers.
The fall convocation on Nov. 7-
8 will have "Christianity and
Communism" as a theme. Speak­ers
will be Dr. Howard Olive,
missionary to the Philippines now
serving on the Howard College
faculty and former pastor of the
Auburn First Baptist Church, and
Dr. James D. Bales of the Hard­ing
College faculty. Dr. Bales has
spent considerable time in the
Orient as an invited lelturcr of. the
Formosan government on the sub­ject
of Christianity versus. Com­munism.
Jan. 5-6 are the dates for the
winter convocation. Speaker will
be Dr. Huston Smith, professor of
philosophy at the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology. Theme is
to be "Religions of Man." Dr.
Smith made a trip around the
world doing research and gather­ing
material for his forthcoming
book which is titled "Religions of
Man."
Dr. W. S. Bailey, School of Vet­erinary
Medicine, is the chairman
of the Religious Life Committee.
He said the committee is sponsor­ing
quarterly religious convoca­tions
instead of the annual Reli­gious
Emphasis Week held for­merly.
The religious Life committee is
a new organization on the Auburn
campus. It is composed of both
students and faculty members. Dr.
Bailey lists the following students
as committee members:
Elizabeth Bycrs, Huntsville;
Taylor Beard, Birmingham; Steve
McCulcheon, Greenville, Ga., and
Charles Davis, Auburn.
Faculty: TJr. Frank Davis, Dr.
John Dcloney, Dr. Homer Black-stone
and Jerry Roden.

Representatives from three groups
named to committee by Huntley
Dean of Faculties Michael C. Huntley has appointed a
committee to study cheating on the Auburn campus. Ap­pointed
between summer and fall quarters, the committee
has representatives of the Council of Deans, the Faculty
Council, and the student body.
According to Dean Huntley, the
committee resulted from a study
last spring by Mortar Board, sen­ior
women's honorary. After a
careful study of Auburn cheating
problems, the girls of Mortar
Board submitted a set of propo­sals
to Dean Huntley, who refer­red
the matter to the Faculty
Council. After evaluating the pro­posals,
the Faculty Council sent
them back to Dean Huntley and
the Council of Deans, with the
recommendation that such a com­mittee
be formed.
Dean Huntley expressed the
opinion that the cheating problem
here is no more acute than at
most institutions of our size and
nature. It is recognized, however
that cheating on the Auburn cam­pus
is more common than it
should be. The committee has
been formed to try and find a
method to reduce cheating to a
bare, irreducible minimum.
This committee will have no
connection with the self study to
begin this fall.
Biggin Hall scene
of collection display
"The Harvest of a Quiet Eye"
is the title of the first photogra­phic
collection to be shown by the
Auburn Foundation for Architec­ture
in a series originating here.
The exhibition will be Oct. 3-14
in the gallery of Biggin Hall.
"Harvest" is the work of Betty
Baldwin, a native of Montgomery,
who chose photography as her
specialty after graduation from
Vassar College. Trained at the
School of Modern Photography in
New York, she returned to Ala­bama
to pursue her art as a free­lancer.
She docs a great deal of
work with architects.
During her extensive travels in
the United States and abroad, she
became drawn to the vast, my­sterious
history of the Colorado
mountains. This attraction is re­flected
in the exhibition by her
"ghost-town" photographs. She
opened a professional studio in
Denver in 1955, doing a variety of
work.
A preview showing is scheduled
for Sunday, Oct. 2, from 3 to 5
p.m. in Biggin Gallery.
The committee chairman, Dean
J. E. Green, School of Veterinary
Medicine, expects the committee
to meet in the near future to be­gin
work.
Representing the Council of
Deans are: Dean Greene, chair­man;
Col. John F. Dunlap, Pro­fessor
of Naval Science; James E.
Foy, Dean of Student Affairs. Fa­culty
representatives are: Dr.
Wilford Bailey, Head Professor of
Pathology and Parasitology; Prof.
O. T. Ivey, Department of His­tory.
Ex officio members repre­senting
the student body are Gene
Driver and.Anita Griffith, presi­dents
of SGA and WSGA respec­tively.
IFC TO AWARD
SCHOLARSHIP
The Auburn Interfraternity
Council has recently revived a
foreign student scholarship pro­gram
designed to provide assis­tance
to worthy students who have
displayed the necessary qualifica­tions.
The IFC foreign student schol­arship
is awarded semi-annually
to a qualified male foreign stu­dent.
The purpose of this scholar­ship
is to give financial assistance
to foreign students, to help them
to make new friends and become
better acquainted with American
life, and lo be an educational ben­efit
to Auburn fraternity men. It
is considered as an educational
venture for both the foreign stu­dents
and the fraternity men. As
such, it must be recognized that
more than financial aid is in­volved.
The sincere interchange
of ideas and fellowship; is funda­mental
lo the program.
The award is $125 per quarter.
A sum of $65 is paid directly to
Auburn University for tuition. The
balance is prorated monthly to the
recipient. Since this is a program
of fellowship, the recipient also
has the privilege of. taking his
meals at various fraternity houses.
The scholarship requires that
the recipient be in good standing
on the Auburn campus. He must
have completed at least one quar­ter's
work and must also be in
need of financial assistance. An
additional stipulation is that, the
scholarship holder shall not pledge
a fraternity while receiving fi­nancial
aid.

NATURALLY, BY
The Bootery
'Auburn's Most Complete Shoe Center'
N. College Street TU 7-2411
Auburn after two years as a Ful­bright
Lecturer at Austria's Uni­versity
of Vienna. He lectured on
American literature and cultural
history and conducted seminars on
works of. various American au­thors.
"Yes, I'll agree that Austrian
freshmen are much better pre­pared
to enter college than Amer­icans,"
says Dr. Malone. "But we
must remember that they have an
entirely different educational sys­tem;
Everyone goes to school
there until the age of 10, and then
a process of selection starts. Some
go to school for only four more
years after this, some go on to
yarious trade schools, and some
!go on to a college' preparatory
school. Eventually, only the top
15 per cent of the students ever
reach college.
Dr. Malone explained that this
process of arbitrary selection en­ables
the Austrian student to en­ter
college with a better educa­tion
than most of our college soph­omores
here. The average Austrian
freshman has completed mathe­matics
through integral calculus,
taken eight years of Latin, and
studied four to eight years of a
modern foreign language, just to
name a few.
"One of the things that most
amazed me at Vienna was the stu­dents'
knowledge of English," Dr.
Malone stated. "I delivered all of
my lectures in English, and none
of them seemed to have any dif­ficulty
in understanding me. About
half of them could write English
better than our freshmen."
On the college level, Dr. Ma­lone
believes that the American
system is much more beneficial to
the student than the European.
There, a student spends much of
his first two years without really
knowing what to do, he reports.
They work mostly on their own
and very seldom even speak to a
professor.
At' European schools, tests are
only given at the end of two or
even four years in most courses.
Because of this, Dr. Malone found
that the student's work was di­rected
almost exclusively toward
passing these comprehensive ex­aminations.
The student will find
out the particular professors who
are to give his exam and then he
will concentrate on their lectures
and try to memorize everything
they say.
Dr. Malone noticed immediate­ly
the high enrollment of foreign
students in Austria. He soon found
the reason for that;—the Austrian
government pays for most of their
education. Tuition is very nomi­nal.
An Austrian pays less than
$20 a year, and a foreign student
pays only a small amount more.
"Most Austrians are violently
anti-Communist," he said. "Very
few will even study the Russian
language, because they're afraid
of being called a Communist sym­pathizer.
Although the Russian oc­cupation
ended in 1955, the Rus­sian-
occupied parts are still poor-
. er than the western portion. While
America was pouring money into
western Austria, the Russians
were taking it out of eastern Aus­tria.
However, the Russians left
no marks on the educational sys­tem.
"When most Americans think of
Vienna, they think of Sigmund
i Freud. For the most part, the peo­ple
there have never even heard
of Freud. Well, 'A prophet is not
without honor, save in his own
country!"
One thing that Dr.- Malone par­ticularly
admired about Austria
is the way they handle the refu­gee
problem. There is a constant
flood of refugees from Hungary,
Czechoslovakia, and other coun­tries
behind the Iron Curtain. The
i state and private organizations in
i Austria take care of. all of them
with only a little help from the
United Nations. Dr. Malone thinks
that this is really quite an accom­plishment
considering that the
population of Austria is less than
seven million.

"THERE'S NO CEILIN0 FOR A SELF-STARTER
IN THE TELEPHONE BUSINESS"
When Wes Roberts was nearing the end of
his senior year at San Jose State College, he was
looking for a job with a wide open future. He
found it when he joined Pacific Telephone in,
San Francisco.
Here's how Wes tells it: "I remember one of
my first jobs. The boss said, 'Wes, I want you,
to work out a plan showing where we'll need;
new field operating centers to keep up with
Northern California's growth over the next 10
years.' I didn't know whether I was more happy
or scared."
Wes didn't tell us (but his boss did) that he
handled the report like a pro. And today, as a
division supervisor, he's holding'down a key
telephone job.
Wes Roberts' story is not unique in the Bell
Telephone Companies. The telephone business
is growing fast—and men are needed who can
grow just as fast. •
Wes can tell you: "We get good training.
But no one nurses you along. We hire managers
—not errand boys. So far as I can see, there's no
ceiling for a self-starter in this business."
If you're a guy like Wes Roberts—if you like
to bite off more than you can chew and then chew
it—you'U want to visit your Placement Office for
literature and additional information.

management jobs the most vital, intelli­gent,
positive and imaginative men we
can possibly find,"

SOCCER CLUB SETS ELECTIONS,
NEW COACH TO BE GREETED
There will be a meeting of the
Auburn Soccer Club on Thurs­day,
September 29, at 7:00 p.m.
in Room 301 of the Union Build­ing.
All members and others in­terested
are invited to attend. At
this meeting the new coach, Mr.
Fred W. Taube, will be introduc­ed,
new club officials will be
elected and all details of the win­ter
schedule will be discussed.
Mr. Taube, his wife Joan and
daughter Debra reside at the Star
Trailer Court on, the Opelika
Highway. Mr. Taube played soc­cer
for Brockport State College,
New York, as a halfback and la­ter
was freshman coach and assis­tant
varsity coach for the soccer
club of the University of North
Carolina, at Chapel Hill. The Uni­versity
of North Carolina partici­pates
in the Atlantic Coast Soccer
Conference, one of the better soc­cer
competitions in the United
States. Mr. Taube has consented
to take over as coach from Mr.
Dan McNair who has left for a
coaching post at Chattanooga. Mr.
Taube's intimate knowledge of
the game and his experience in
coaching soccer will be of great
value to the club which is plan­ning
a good schedule of games
this winter.
For the benefit of newcomers
the Auburn Soccer Club is a new­ly
formed organization having
been founded as recent as the
Spring quarter of 1960. This year
will be the first complete season
for this organization which has
both staff and student members.
Almost without exception the
players available last season will
be on hand for the new schedule.
The club has Dr. Bob Howes and
Dr. Bob Naylor as active faculty
advisors.
cd is the rule stated in the 1959-
60 Tiger Cub as follows, "failure
during a summer quarter to re­establish
eligibility for continua­tion
in residence, will cause the
student to be permanently drop­ped
from the roles." Under the
new regulations it will be pos­sible
for a suspended student who
attempts but fails during a sum­mer
quarter to reestablish eligi­bility,
to return at the end of his
12 months suspension. Students
may no longer be permanently
dropped.
As of September 1960, a fresh­man
who needs counseling will
be required to report to the Stu­dent
Guidance Center only once.
"The first time a student classi­fied
as a freshman earns less than
ten credits and/or ten grade
points, he is required to go to
the Student Guidance Service
during the first three weeks of
his next quarter of residence," is
the revised rule. This is contrary
to the present regulation, under
which a student may be required
to go to the Guidance Center
many times.

IN HIS NEW "executive" surroundings, young Jack Venable,
new producer and director for Auburn Educational TV, looks over
the script for one of his science programs.
VENABLE IS FAMILIAR VOICE
By BOBBY BOETTCHER
Features Editor
A familiar voice ^nd figure on Auburn radio and tele­vision
is that of Jack Venable. Jack has recently been ap­pointed
to the position cf full Producer-Director for Auburn
Educational TV, quite an accomplishment for a young man
of twenty-two.
Jack's voice is probably best
known to us through his affilia­tion
with radio station WAUD,
where he was featured on the
popular "Nighttime Auburn"
show for two years. His exper­ience
is quite varied, however, be­cause
he has also spent consider­able
time as a sports announcer,
having handled the Auburn base­ball
games last year. At the TV
station he has been an "on-cam-era"
announcer, a dramatic actor,
director, and producer.
Venable began his radio-TV ca­reer
while still in high school in
Wetumpka, Ala., where he was
an announcer for station WETU.
During his first year at Auburn,
he worked regularly for WRFS in
Alexander City, making it neces­sary
for him to commute daily
from Alex City to Auburn. Fin­ally
able to settle down here in
Auburn, he began announcing at
WAUD. It was at this time that
he landed a dramatic part in a
production staged by the Educa­tional
TV. When the TV station
learned of his announcing exper­ience,
he was taken on as a part-time
student announcer.
During the past two years, he
has taken on more and more r e ­sponsibility
at the TV station. Af­ter
only about five months with
television, he began directing a
few shows. Soon afterward, he
began his long connection with
the popular "This Is Auburn" se-

The Breakthrough
A STEP is finally being made to extirpate
those who are responsible for the-shameful
classroom dishonesty that has
been a parasite to education here for such
a while.
Dean of Faculties Michael C. Huntley
has appointed a committee who will exam­ine
the reasons why students cheat, the
methods they use, incompetence of pro­fessors
in dealing with cheating, and other
aspects of the complex problem.
Dean J. E. Greene, School of Veterin­ary
Medicine, is chairman. A wiser choice
to head this worthy project is not to be
found. Students are absolutely on their
honor in quiz rooms of Dr. Greene's school.
Grades there are always the student's own.
Considering the capable leadership, we
doubt that this welcomed innovation will
become an abortive one. There are an ex­cess
of temporary moves made to satisfy
great tidal waves of demand, moves that
conveniently disappear after the evanes-ence
of turbulent forces that brought the
plans on. This effort is not of that sort.
Auburn is now of university status. Its
people are peeping out from behind the
curtains of complacency. They are becom­ing
university-like folk. Intelligent and
progressive thought is making the break­through.
That Spirit Saturday . . .
SATURDAY for Auburn was dismal. The
institution claims a great, an unequalled
spirit. We have often seen this force at
its best, and nothing has impressed us
more. But this day, it missed hitting a peak.
There was noise, there were cheers in
the stands Saturday for the white-clad
fighters. But the extent to which onlook­ers
urged their team to victory voiced no
greater demand than the student sections
of Georgia Tech or Alabama usually pro­vide.
We must face facts—we have seen
even better displays of spirit from the par­tisan
stands of other colleges.
If Auburn is to claim a great spirit, it
must not be a desultory spirit, often tumul­tous,
sometimes bordering the obscure. It
must be dynamic, vociferous, consistent.
We must continually provide evidence that
we really have just what we claim.
There is no alternative.
Good Rush!
PRESIDENTS Harriett Jenkins and Lin
Monrqe, their respective staffs of Pan-hellenic
and IFC, have distinguished them­selves.
We have never witnessed smoother exe­cutions
of the tedious presidents' jobs dur­ing
the week in which their incumbents
are pushed beyond the rim of exhaustion.
Fraternities this year should be con­gratulated
for their endeavor to stay with­in
the realm of things condoned. From our
experiences, we found them unexpectedly
anxious to cooperate with the IFC. Others
participating in a strenuous rush patrol re­port
the same. There were exceptions of
course, but few this fall.
It is a fine sight, this view of the Au­burn
spirit working through the majority's
adherence to ideals and a combined effort
of leaders and followers who truly love
Auburn.
Impertinent Issue...
DISDAIN for avowed Democratic "social­ism,"
admiration of the Republican
platform, if there is such a thing here, or
the pursuit of a two-party Southern poli­tical
rivalry should be the only accepted
reasons for snubbing the Democratic ticket
this November. Southern bigotry regard­ing
Senator Kennedy's religious prefer­ence
is as abominable as it is backward.
Members of the Senator's church have
held countless public offices in this land.
Many have served with esteem. We do
not recall Governor Brown of California,
White House Press Secretary James Ha-gerty,
or any other Roman Catholics ever
accused of conspiracies with the Vatican.
Senator Kennedy has sworn before the
nation that his religious ties can not inter­fere
with his job. We take him at his word.
The antipathetic religious bigot forgets
that our nation's founders made provision
for halting off-beat demands of powerful
office-holders through the never faltering
system of checks and balances. We hardly
foresee Congress allowing the Pontiff to
run America from St. Peter's. It is subject
to ridicule to even think he would try.
We made our unequivocal stand on this
election a week ago. We did so because
we deprecate the Democratic choke hold
on the South. We care little for Senator
Kennedy and the stand he takes. But we
hope that those individuals whose sole ob­jection
to the Democratic ticket involves
religious bias, would search their memor­ies
just a bit for purpose of recalling those
ideals on which this unique nation was
founded precious years ago.
Decade of Freedom Fighting
THE Radio Free Europe Fund, better
known as Crusade for Freedom, recently
celebrated its tenth birthday.
In a decade of broadcasting, Radio Free
Europe has piped the truth through Iron
Curtain lands day and night. Officials of
the organization estimate that 90 per cent
of recent Iron Curtain refugees listened
to RFE broadcasts while nslaved in Red
satellite nations.
It is enlightening to know that the 79,-
000,000 captive people of Poland, Czechlo-slavakia,
Hungary, Rumania, and Bulgaria,
engulfed by a heartless anarchy which
m o 1 d s its own t r u t h s from lies for its
own convenience, at least have radio
access to the thoughts of free minds.
Meticulosity Essential
OF THE nauseating plethora of recent U.
S. political blunders, the existing system
of security checks on top-secret position
applicants appears to hold a niche among
the most brutally sore of our many injured
thumbs.
Early this month, even while the ques­tionable
Powers episode lingered still in
the American mind, one of the most fla­grant
betrayals of country in our history
occurred. Of the two code clerks, William
H. Martin and Bernon F. Mitchell, who
defected to Russia, one had received psy­chiatric
treatment. The apalling fact in
this latest of turncoat maneuvers is that
the employer National Security Agency,
knowing of this mental quirk, allowed the
sickened cryptanalyst to retain his job of
fingering through vital defense secrets.
In view of the importance of security
checks and their necessary, but evidently
unpracticed meticulosity, we render these
current fiascos utterly inexcusable.
Slavery, the so-called Communists avow,
is eventually to engulf this country
through the cold, not a hot war. Only a
comprehensive tightening of policy in
every nook and cranny of our faltering
storehouse of resistance can slow the rapid
pace of subversive infiltration.
Football Strategy
AUBURN'S football team gave their all at
Legion Field Saturday. They did as
they were instructed. Their on-the-field
spirit immeasurably surpassed that of their
backers in the stands. Our squad was not
shamed by the stigma of defeat. They
fought the good fight.
Strategy was not the best. We do not
quibble, however, with the occasional mis­takes
of a coaching staff who have led the
way to 56 wins in the last seven seasons.
On Frosh Traditions
ADHERENCE to freshman traditions is a
fine aspect of our heralded Spirit. We
strongly encourage all upperclassmen to
stringently enforce the fourteen do's and
don't's of ratdom. As mature college men,
however, they should be expected to cold-shoulder
any ram'bunctuousness through
which unnecessary injuries might be in­curred.
Clean fun can be had by upperclassmen
in the background of colorful tradition.
There is no room here for buffoonery.

Campus Service Groups Provide Sterling Opportunity
For Achievement By Those of Philanthropic Mind
BY JIMMY Kl LP AT RICK
WHEN MATURE campus men 1959-60. Circle K has a three fold
and women are willing to give
of their time in service to Au­burn,
to community, and to their
fellowmen, much can be accom­plished.
A very few can do so
much for so many if they are on­ly
willing. Such is the case at Au­burn.
Four major service clubs func­tion
on this campus and are a
credit to the institution. However,
the need for manpower is seldom
filled. You, the upperclassman,
or the incoming freshman, can
do your share. Auburn gives her
students much — an education,
fun and fellowship, and training
for a responsible citizenship in
later life. It is only right that we,
the students, should be willing to
give a small fraction of our time
to the institution that gives to us
in such abundance.
Of the four major service or­ganizations
on campus, the lar­gest
is Circle K, an international
men's organization sponsored by
Kiwanis International. Alpha
Phi Omega is a national service
fraternity sponsored by the Boy
Scouts of America, which chooses
its members from the ranks of
former Boy Scouts; The Auburn
Veterans Association- is a male
service group composed of former
service men,' while Towers op­erates
as an independent wo­men's
service body striving for
excellence in scholarship and ex­tra-
curricular activities.
AWARDS TO CIRCLE K
The excellence of the Auburn
service clubs is exemplified by
the Circle K's winning of the In­ternational
Service Award for

to community and service to Ki­wanis

service projects are

IS THE American college student
doomed to mediocrity?
The sages of this country, men
who have earned their stations by
knowing a great deal about some­thing
and very little about every­thing,
have from time to time
stated their opinions of today's
college students in the various
communication media, primarily
magazines. Most of these opinions
have not been altogether in praise
of the subjects at hand and the
majority to the contrary. They
seem to think that, in addition to
our nation's becoming soft, the
youth' of this once great and glor­ious
country are rapidly falling
off the pinnacles of individuality
and have sunken into the lethar­gic
bog of mediocrity. To deter­mine
whether these opinions rep­resent
a comparison of two or
more generations or a criticism
of one generation by a member of
another, is not easily done. For the
main part they are shrugged off
by those who believe themselves
to be young as harmless buffoons
who can do little more than to
cling to distorted dreams in an
age which is passing them by and
by the older generation as pro­phets
of doom and "handwriters
on the wall."
BASIS FOR CLAIMS
However, the fact remains that
there must be some cause for the
articles and a great number of, at
least, half rational men do not
lose their heads at any given mo­ment
over nothing at all. There­fore,
there must be a distinct basis
for their claims.
Conformity is an old argument,
but this doesn't and never has held
water. It's just that in this age of.
mass communication everyone is
exposed to the same fashions or
fads almost simultaneously and
there no longer exist isolated or
unexposed areas of so called indi­viduality.
Where once one's school
or region could be ascertained by
the cut of his clothes, now all cam­pus
fashions are essentially the
same and any fad is a national
fad. Back then the fads were
there, but they had to spread like
a brush fire, whereas they now
could be l a b e l e d "explosions."
There are many cases to be
brought against conformity, but
they are not complaints of. our
age or of any single age, but of
time.
They say that our values are
misplaced. By their standards this
is probably so, but they overlook
the fact that every generation has,
as an innate clause of its heritage,
a new set of values for a new age,
This is rightly so. Just as the Vic-torianism
was not suited for the
,20's, neither is the sobriety of the
30's adaptable to the present de­cade
or the ten year period just
past. They may not approve of
our values, but they are our values
and we have to live with them.
No attempt should be made by
this writer or any other to write
history as it happens, for the true
significance of events can only be
seen through the eyes of time. On­ly
a factual recording of life
should exist and certainly no con­demnation
of a generation that has
just been "born" and has yet to
run its course. This is like pre­dicting
the future or telling the
Wright Brothers it'll never get off
the ground.
We of this generation want not
to be judged by the past, but by
the future. To be sure, the lack
of individuality is a problem, but
this again is not our personal
problem, but one of all time. It,
perhaps, shall always exist; just
don't pin the blame on us.

Dear Sir:
In reference to your "joke"
about Senator Kennedy which ap­peared
in the "Lampoon" section
of The Plainsman, I feel that the
writer showed poor taste and
childishness. I thought that A-merica
had outgrown the Al

are still some who find ridicule

I certainly hope that persons

not get the impression that Mr.

all jokes on the Auburn campus.
I have been an Auburn student

make me feel ashamed of that

FAMILIAR STORY
Vandiver's Snub of Nixon
Indicative Of Dixie Political Scene
By HAL HARRIS
LAMPOONING...
If Demo's Get Into Power,
It's Eleanor To The Congo
BY TOMMY FOWLER
I HEARD that if the Democrats
got in power that they would
send Eleanor Roosevelt as an am­bassadress
to the Congo.
Then there was the psychotic
hunter who told me how he
caught rabbits. He hid in the
bushes and made sounds like a
carrot.
Anatole France once said, "Peo­ple
who have no weaknesses are
terrible, there is no way of taking
advantage of them."
An old saying quite in practice
around the Auburn campus: Ne­ver
do t°day what you can put
off until tomorrow.
Manage is the cause of all di­vorces.
I saw a fellow whose face was
flushed but his broad shoulders
saved him.
Who was the guy that was put­ting
toilet water on his face and.
the seat hit him on the head.
When Khrushchev v i s i t ed
Washington, D.C., he was very
quiet. However, when he saw the
Washington Monument he was
heard to remark, "Eh, they'll
never get it off the ground."
Count the T's in this state­ment:
The story of The Tale of
Two Cities is thought to be good.
If you caught 5 you're average, if
7 you're good, if 8 you're excel­lent,
and if you caught all 9,
you're a genius and its a question
whether you should spend time
taking a silly test like this.
ONE OF the most glaring ex­amples
of the near omnipre­sence
of backwardness in South­ern
politics took place in Atlan­ta
last month.
When Republican Presidential
hopeful Richard M. Nixon came
knocking on the Democratically
inhibited Georgia door, Governor
Ernest Vandiver failed to be on
hand for purpose of giving Mr.
Nixon the state's official wel­come.
For Governor Vandiver, there
was business elsewhere. A day
before Nixon's appearance, Dem­ocrat
Vandiver dedicated the new
state docks 300 miles away on the
Georgia coast. To Nixon, he ex­pressed
his token displeasure at
being unable to make town for
the Vice-President's stop-over.
Additional business, said the gov­ernor,
would keep him on the
coast for another day.
HARTSFIELD SPEAKS
Soon after Nixon's highly suc­cessful
Atlanta appearance, a hot
feud Fulminated between avowed
enemies Vandiver and long time
Democratic Atlanta Mayor, Wil­liam
B. Hartsfield, who, while
greeting Nixon to his city, vocif­erously
encouraged the crowd to
fight for a two-party South, for
Dixie's own good.
Hartsfield chastized the Gov­ernor'
for his "boorishness" in
failing to be on hand for the
Vice-President's visit. Text of the
rebuttal then aimed Hartsfield's
way by Vandiver is such that we
of the South should hang heads
in shame.
Nixon, maintained Vandiver,
was not in the state for an offi­cial
visit, but rather to rob his
and Hartsfield's sacred Party of
votes. Vandiver admitted he
could have altered his plans easi­ly
enough, but did not see rea­son
to. The vituperative Georgia
head of state then castigated
Hartsfield for his introductory
passage at the Nixon appearance,
making angry allusion to t he
Mayor's two-party South pro­posal.
WHY TAKE THIS?
Why the apathetic Southern
public stands for such continu­ous
tommyrot, this columnist is
incapable of comprehending. Has
the second highest public office
in this nation degenerated so
greatly that its incumbent should
be insulted this outrageously
when he visits a state, even
t h o u g h honest campaigning
brings him there?
Tact, diplomacy, and a sense of
propriety have been famous
marks of the South. We should
demand their spread into the
ranks of those who govern us,
where these attributes are so
often and so sorely lacking.
ELIMINATE THE LAZY . . .
College Takes Steps In Right Direction,
Tightens Regulations, Rulings
BY CHUCK JOHNSON
AUBURN has finally made a sig­nificant
step toward becoming
an educational institution worthy
of the name University. This pro­gress
came in the form of the new
residence requirements, effective
this fall. I, like everyone else, re­ceived
my copy of the new re­quirements
along with my permit
to register and the propaganda
for student laundry and insur­ance.
I'm glad I salvaged my copy
from the trash can.
These new requirements will
do much to eliminate undesirable
elements from our university—
the lazy, the misguided, and the
stupid. No longer will these peo­ple
be allowed to hang on at Au­burn
simply for lack of a way to
get rid of them.
Under the new policy, a stu­dent
who has been dropped for
academic reasons must, during
the summer following his suspen­sion,
make a 1.0 (C) average over
at least a 15 hour load level ac­ceptable
to his curriculum. This
immediately does away with those
who come to summer school and
pass five hours of crip courses
for reinstatement.
The minimum requirements
have been raised for the first four
quarters, which should serve to
eliminate more people unsuited to
college and guarantee a higher
calibre of student in the upper
classes.
Guidance service is now man­datory
for a freshman who earns
less than 10 hours and/or grade
points. The counseling and test­ing
provided in this manner can
prove invaluable in helping a stu­dent
decide whether or not he is
in the right field, or even whether
or not he should be in college.
If a person graduates from an
Alabama high school, Auburn
must accept his application, but
it is not mandatory that this per­son
graduate if he does not pos­sess
the ability. With this one
truth realized, perhaps we can go
on to realize more truths of the
same nature.
While these new requirements
will not cure all of Auburn's edu­cational
ills, they indicate pro­gress
in a very desirable direc­tion.

A college student's
best Mend is a
account
Learning how to handle personal finances wisely
is an important part of any college education.
A ThriftiCheck Account helps you keep within your
allowance — gives you and your parents a record
of your expenses — eliminates the annoyance of
lost receipts.
Now is the time for college men and women to estab­lish
a banking connection of their own, with a ThriftiCheck
Personal Checkikng Account. No minimum balance. Your
name printed free on your checks. And the checks cost only
a few cents each.

BE REALLY REFRESHED
University—which is the source of
the 73 "fathers." Since Circle K
is sponsored by the Kiwanis Club
of Auburn, that's where the near
hundred "grandfathers" get into
the act.
The Auburn University K-men
send money each month for Guil­lermina's
support to the Christian
Children's Fund, which, in turn,
sends support to the Salvation
Army Home at Coatzacoalcos,
Mexico.
Guillermina's parents, accord­ing
to word from the Home, "have
always belonged among the poor­est
of Mexico's legions of the
poor. It was, no doubt, the frus­trations
of unending poverty that
caused tensions to arise which led
to the breakup of the home. What
then happened to the father is un­known.
Alone, the unskilled mo­ther
could not begin to provide
food for her children on the few
centavos she made from odd jobs.
The situation rapidly became so
critical that the Salvation Army
officer brought the children to
the Home."
* * *
GUILLERMINA is described as
a "neat, helpful litle girl." She is
in the first grade of the Salvation
Army Home's school and her fa­vorite
subject is reading. The of­ficers
report that her health is
"good now" and that her progress
is "normal."
* * *
ACCORDING to AU Circle K
President Bert Hitchcock of De-mopolis,
contact is being made
directly with the Home so that
more attention can be given to
Guillermina's personal needs. A
number of K-men have expressed
Construction date set
for new fraterniy house
The new Theta Xi fraternity
house will be completed next
summer and ready for occupa­tion
by next fall quarter, accord­ing
to Dr. Allan Edgar, Theta Xi
faculty advisor. The construction
of this beautifully designed house
is to begin sometime after January
first.
The first of three phases of blue
prints has been completed and
submitted for approval to the Au­burn
University planning board.
The architects, Shelby Dean and
Harold Cobb, both professors in
the School of Architecture at Au­burn,
will begin the more detailed
second phase after the first plans
have been approved. The third
and final place is expected to be
completed before Christmas at
which time a bid for the construc­tion
will be accepted. This pro­ject
will be financed by the pro­fits
from the sale of the present
Theta Xi fraternity house on Mag­nolia
Avenue, and by loans, the
major portion of which has been
approved.
To be built in the most modern
style, the new house will have a
two-level living area and a spa­cious
dormitory section, as well as
large patio and parking area. The
living area includes a large living
room and a bath for guests, a
well-equipped kitchen with plen­ty
of storage space, a two-room
apartment for the housemother
and a dining room on an upper
floor overlooking the living room.
A large chapter room will be lo­cated
below the living area.
In the upper section of. the
house, the dormitory area, there
will be enough facilities for fifty
men. However, the design is such
that this area can be made larger
as the size of the fraternity in­creases.
The whole house is plan­ned
for complete air-conditioning
which, although too expensive a
project for the present, will be
installed some future time.

Wildcat Den Could Be Tiger Trap
By JAMES ABRAMS
Football flurries against a cold gray sky
A girl, a drink, and a War Eagle Cry,
Colored jerseys on a field of green
Bright white helmets with an Orange seam,
Tile curtain has risen on the '60 season
And Time will tell . . .
Every Sunday afternoon Auburn's field house is quite similar
to a beehive; both in activity and sound.
With film buzzzing through the numerous projectors, Tiger
coaches watch past history intently. Each coach views the actions
and reactions of his particular men.
In one room you'll find assistant coaches Buck Bradberry and
Vince Dooley studying the moves of their backfield men.
"Keep those feet movin'," says coach Bear Lorendo in another
room as he watches offensive end play. Assistant line coach Joe
Connley keeps a sharp eye on his guards.
Defensive specialist Hal Herring and offensive line assistant
coach Shot Senn grind through a long afternoon and evening.
Chances are Shot will be sipprng one of his many cups of black.
Coach Joel Eaves, defensive end coach, will also file a report
that day.
School grades . . . Playing grades
Each player receives a grade on every play, with three points
being the best and one the lowest. After all men have been
graded a conference is in store to determine just what needs to
be worked on in practice that week.
What The Films Showed
Don Machen graded highest of any t a ck on the field; both in
the blocking department and overall performance.
Wayne Frazier topped the list of linemen in defensive roles.
No one was graded high offensively.
Before viewing the films Jordan said that our line blocking
was the best he had seen in a long time. After a projector room
session his opinion changed to "needs a lot of work."

"They react well to most sit­uations,"
says Atkins. "They
have good speed and power, get

best of all, their attitude is
above average."
* * *
ON THIS UNIT are Zack Ro-berson
and Bobby Rogers of
Gadsden at tackles, Ernie War­ren
of Marietta, Ga., and Kelly
King of Dalton, Ga., at guards
and Davis Brock of Montgom­ery
at center.
Russell believes the end corps
is the finest he's seen in his
three years as head coach.
First string ends are Howard
Simpson of Marietta, Ga., and
Leon Stancil of Gadsden. Run­ning
these boys a close battle
on the second team are a pair
of Atlanta, Ga., boys—Kaye El-lenburg
and Bate Hobbs.
OTHER ENDS who have
turned in good performances
but have been hobled by in­juries
off and on are Mike
Helms of Abbeville, Chuck
Platzke of Toledo, Ohio, and
Bucky Waid of Springville.
"This team, has good spirit,"
says Russell. "There are several
individuals who could be point­ed
out for their spirit, and some
of the boys we are very pleased
with in this respect right now
are Warren, Ellenburg and
quarterback Frank James.
"We haven't had any more
spirited boys than these."
Recent shifts in the line have
brought about this strong first
unit. Roberson, a 220-pounder
who played for Emma Samson,
was moved from center to left
tackle. Brock, a 200-pound boy
who played at Lanier-, moved
•from guard to center and King,
a tough Dalton product, return­ed
to guard from tackle.

THE PLEDGE YOU SAVE
MAY BE YOUR OWN
Today's column is directed at those young female under­graduates
who have recently pledged sororities and are wor­ried,
poor lambs, that they won't make good. Following is a
list of simple instructions which, if faithfully observed, will
positively guarantee that you will be a mad success as a
sorority girl.
First, let us take up the matter of housemothers. The
housemother is your friend, your guide, your mentor. You
must treat her with respect. When you wish to speak to her,
address her as "Mother Sigafoos" or "Ma'am." In no circum­stances
must you say, "Hey, fat lady."
Second, let us discuss laundry. Never hang your wash on
the front porch of the sorority house. This is unsightly and
shows a want of breeding. Use the Chapter Room.
Third, meals. Always remember that planning and preparing
meals for a houseful of healthy girls is no simple task. Your
cook goes to a great deal of trouble to make your menu varied
and nourishing. The least you can do is show your apprecia­tion.
Don't just devour your food; praise it. Exclaim with
delight, "What delicious pork jowls!." or "What a yummy soup
bone!" or "What scrumptious fish heads!" or '.'What clear
water!"
Fourth, clothing. Never forget that your appearance re­flects
not just on yourself but on the whole house. It was
well enough before you joined a sorority to lounge around
campus in your old middy blouse and gym bloomers, but now
you must take great pains to dress in a manner which excite3
admiring comments from all who observe you. A few years ago,
for example, there was a Chi Omega named Camille Ataturk
at the University of Iowa who brought gobs of glory to all her
sorors. Camille hit on the ingenious notion of suiting her garb
to the class she was attending. For instance, to English Lit she
wore a buskin and jerkin. To German she wore lederhosen and
carried a stein of pilsener. To Econ she wore 120 lyards of
ticker tape. Her shiningest hour came one day when she
dressed as a white mouse for Psych Lab. Not only her Chi
Omega sisters, but the entire student body went into deep
mourning when she was killed by the janitor's cat.
WfWM^^M
Finally, let us take up the most important topic of all. I
refer, of course, to dating.
As we have seen, the way you dress reflects on your sorority,
but the men you date reflect even more. Be absolutely certain
that your date is an acceptable fellow. Don't beat about the
bush; ask him point-blank,' "Are you an acceptable fellow?"
Unless he replies, "Yeah, hey," send him packing.
But don't just take his word that he is acceptable. Inspect
him closely. Are his.fingernails clean? Is his black leather
jacket freshly oiled? Is his ukelele in tune? Does he carry
public liability insurance? And, most significant of all, does
he smoke Marlboros?
If he's a Marlboro man, you know he has taste and discern­ment,
wit and wisdom, character and sapience, decency and
warmth, presence and poise, talent and grit, filter and flavor,
soft pack and flip-top box. You will be proud of him, your
sorority will be proud of him, the makers of Marlboro will be
proud of him, and I will be paid for this column.

like to mention another of their fine cigarettes—mild, un­altered
Philip Morris—available in regular size or the sensa­tional
new king-size Commander. Have a Commander-welcome

THE FIRST two Kentucky
starts this season have been
losing efforts, but once again
the Wildcats proved to be no
push-overs. In their first game,
they bowed to Georgia 23-13,
and last week to mighty Missis­sippi
21-6.
At present, the big gun of
the Kentucky attack is sopho­more
quarterback Jerry Wool-um.
A third-stringer at the
start of the season, h;s showing
in the .Tech and Ole Miss games
was nothing short of sensation­al.
When the other Wildcat quar­terbacks,
converted end Tom
Rodgers and senior Jerry Eisa-mann,
couldn't move the ball
against Tech, Collier called on
Woolum. He only played the se­cond
half, but he completed 14
of. 21 passes, and two of them
for touchdowns.
At one time against Missis­sippi
last week he threw eight
straight completions, one of
them for a touchdown.
)fc $; #
THE WILDCAT running at­tack
is spearheaded by half­backs
Calvin Bird, Charlie
Sturgon, a n d Bill Ransdell.
Principal targets for Woolum's
passes are the halfbacks and
ends Dickie Mueller and Dave
Gash! In the Kentucky line,
junior center Irvin Goode (6-5
and 212) is a standout.
It was cool and wet at Cliff
Hare Stadium last year when
the Tigers handed the 'Cats a
33-0 shutout. The issue was
never very much in doubt as
Jimmy Pettus, Ed Dyas, and
Bobby Hunt led Auburn to . a

Gross Bigger And Better
Short On Experience,
But Desire Is There
By James Abrams
Managing Editor
For a boy who started playing
high.- school football before he
could speak English fluently,
Auburn's guard-giant George
Gross has done better than all
right for himself.
•,','• George Gross was born in
;Rumania( but the ; ravages of
War drove his family to Austria
'when he was only three-years-old.
'Six years later, the most
wonderful thing in the world
happened", says George, "April
28, .1950 we came to the United
States."
• ' Shortly after arriving in this
country George enrolled in
public school. Keeping in mind
the fact that couldn't speak a
word of English — he went
straight through and graduated
from high school with honors.
Today, he has no accent what­soever
and his English is bet­ter
than the average American,
born person.
* * *
TEAM SPORTS were not
common in George's country:
and the American, game of foot­ball
caught his fancy. After
only two years of high school
ball Auburn scouts were con­vinced
that this boy had a lot
to offer. Now, as a sophomore,
Gross is firmly entrenched in
the number two guard slot and
making a strong bid for the
starting nod.
Not only is he one of the
youngest men on the varsity,
19, but he's also the biggest.
And he's just a growing boy.
At the end of spring training
last year he weighed 250. Now
the grand total stands at 262.
He has, been tabbed as Mr. Po­tential
Unlimited, and has the
speed, agility and strength to
make him a prime all-star can­didate.
Head coach Balph Jordan
says: "George h a s a l r e a dy
proven himself as an individual
operator. He could be a tre­mendous
asset to us if he will
show more aggressiveness on
the field. Frankly he just hates
to run oyer people.".
WRESTLING and track have
been added to George's Auburn
book of sports. While in the
process of trying.out,wrestling
last year he won the Southeast­ern
Intercollegiate heavyweight
championship. Track season
saw him place in many meets
as a shot puter, discus man and
javelin thrower.
• Another who believes in
George's potential is head track
coach Wilbur Hutsell. "George
hasn't had much time, to prac­tice,"
says Hutsell, "but to show
you what he can do just look
at our meets with Georgia and
Alabama last season. Against
Georgia he threw, the javelin,
for the first time in college
competition, and won "third.
place. Then he had a field day
against Alabama. He placed
second in the javelin, third in
the discus, using no windtip,
and third in the shot put."
Just plain being big is far
from unusual in the Gross fam­ily.
George has three brothers:
John, 5-11 250 ibs; Mike, 6-3
225 lbs., and 14-year-old 'little
brother' Andrew, 5-9 165 lbs.
"Then t h e r e ' s Dad," says
George. He's lost a little late­ly
. . . now he weighs only 240.
SPORTS STAFF
There will be a short but impor­tant
meeting of the plainsman
sports staff at 3:00 p.m. Sunday
afternoon in the Union Building
Plainsman office. Anyone wish­ing

Cats Will Claw
After 33-0 Loss
(Continued from page 6)
15-0 lead at the end of the first
quarter and increased it to 27-
0 at halftime.
However, in 1957 the Wild­cats
almost derailed Auburn
from the track to the national
championship as t h e Tigers
were hard-pressed to squeeze
out a 6-0 victory. Again in 1958
it proved to be quite a chore to
tame the Wildcats by. an 8-0
margin.
COACH JORDAN, is de­finitely
worried about this
game. "They'll have a psycho­logical
advantage," he says,
"because of the drubbing we
gave them last year and also
because they're returning home
after two hard games on the
road." Blanton Collier will be
the underdog, but he may well
put the Tigers to another hard
test.
Center Wayne Frazier Is Top Tiger Defender
BY JIM BULLINGTON
"Frazier played just about as
well as we can expect a line­backer
to play on defense."
This was one of coach Jor­dan's
comments on the perfor­mance
of center Wayne Frazier,
this week's Plainsman Player of
the Week. His hard, vicious
tackling was one of the big rea­sons
that Tennessee was held
to only 112 yards rushing. The
play-by-play account of the
game shows no less than nine
plays with Frazier's name as
tackier, more than any other
player on the field.
"With the loss of Jim Price
hurting our situation at center,
it was most encouraging to see
Frazier's performance," s a ys
coach Jordan. "It took up the
slack. He seemed to be all over
the field making tackles."
As a sophomore last year,
Frazier did a fine job on the
second team, playing behind
Jackie Burkett. His good speed
and tackling ability along with
a knack for diagnosing the op­position's
plays make him a
linebacker worthy to fill the
shoes of All-Ameriean Burkett.
Frazier missed most of spring
training due to a broken foot
from playing basketball; how­ever,
he came back this fall in
good shape and has done well
in drills.
Evergreen, Ala., is Frazier's
home. He stands 6-2 and built
hiniself up from 180 to his
present weight of 225 by weight
lifting. He is majoring in edu­cation.

Two ties last week reduced the number of games to be counted to eight, and the best anyone
could do on these was to pick six of them right. The Auburn-Tennessee game and the Mississippi
State-Houston game threw all of the pickster's for a loop. Sharing laurels with the Consensus last
week are Editor Jim Phillips, Sports Editor Jim Bullington, and Assistant Sports Editor Buddy Dav­idson,
each with a 6-2 record. The rest of the crew fared somewhat worse, but they say, as a de­jected
Auburnite was heard to say after the Tennessee game, "We'll be back."
