To Self-Study Group
BY BETTY THOMAS
Plainsman News Writer
The university departmental re­ports
for the self study commit­tee
were turned in March 1 ac­cording
to Dr. Frank Davis, chair­man.
There has not yet been suf­ficient
time for the committee to
analyze the information submit­ted.
The self-study reports will con­sist
of a brief historical review of
each department, etc., a descrip­tion
of its present status, future
plans for improvement, and the
means by which these improve­ments
are to be made. Schools and
administrative reports are to be
submitted by April 1.
Departmental, administrative,
and school reports will be com­piled
to form one overall report
which will be used to evaluate and
determine the accreditation of Au­burn
University by the Southern
Association of Colleges and Uni­versities.
All activities of the self-study
report are under the supervision
of Dr. Davis of the speech depart­ment.
Other members of the com­mittee
are Dean Richard Saund­ers,
chemistry; Dean Truman
Pierce, education; Dean C h a r l e s
Simmons, agriculture; Ralph Jones,
Assistant Director of Agricultural
Extension Service; Dr. Wilford
Bailey, parasitology; Professor Don
Vestal, mechanical engineering;
and Dr. Ben Lanham, agricultural
economics.
. Over 400 university faculty
members have cooperated with the
Steering Committee in the self-study
report.
Players To Present
'Call Me Madam'
Call Me Madam, a musical com­edy
adapted from the book by
Howard Lindsay and Russell
Grouse, with the music and lyr­ics
by Irving Berlin, will be pre­sented
by the Auburn Players
beginning on April 9, and con­tinuing
for 10 performances.
This two-act play will be di­rected
by Professor Robert
Knowles. Ila Chaney is in charge
of the musical portion of the
play and Lyn Curtis will serve
as dance directress.
The play is a political satire
on the Truman administration
and originally starred Ethel Mer­man.
Later, the play was made
into a movie starring Ethel Mer­man,
Donald O'Conner, and Vera
Miles.
Casting for the play will take
place Wednesday night at 7:30 in
the Langdon Shops. Professor
Knowles invites all those inter­ested
in the play to come for the
try-outs tonight or to contact
him personally.

THE NEW AUBURN LIBRARY
A Building In Search Of More.Books
Professor Points To Library Need;
Statistics Illustrate Volume Deficiency
By DR. CARL BENSON
Auburn Associate Professor of English
From The Auburn Alumnews
The true university is a happy combination of three
things: great students, great teachers, and a great library—or,
in the case of science, great laboratories. Everything else
about a university exists, or ought to exist, to make sure that
these three are brought together; or to put it another way,
nothing should be allowed to stand
in the way of attaining these
three things. I shall have more to
say of the students and the teach­ers
later; and though much might
be said to point up the need for
; :more ajfd;Ji^£J„; equippedlabora­tories,
actually- the sciences be­cause
of Russian astronauts, as­sorted
Congressmen, and elemen­tary
fear, have already had an ex­cellent
press. Besides I have no
competence to describe the needs
of. the scientists.
But I do know something about
libraries, and the library at Au­burn,
as a collection of books, is
pitiful. On any sort of regional or
national comparative basis, the
library in terms of books held or
monies expended for books and
staff is at the bottom of the heap.
To be sure, there are extenuat-ting
circumstances for this bad
eminence. Until we had at least
the prospect of an adequate lib­rary
building, there was an ob­vious
justification for not buying
books: there was no place to put
the ones we already had. In ad­dition,
Auburn has always been
expected to do everything acade­mic
on a shoe-string. Niggardly
appropriations have bedeviled
every educational effort here (as

LOVELIEST JUDY GOODWIN is saying "What, me worry

all over the state), so that we are
in the despairing condition of
bragging upon ourselves for edu­cating
so many- with so little. •
To some extent these bargain-basement
tatties liave..worked. A
determined and devoted teacher
will work harder and longer than
he ought to be expected to—de­spite
the. fact that a heavy fee' is
exacted, the draining of those en­ergies
that ought to be saved for
research. A library, however, is a
different thing. Either we have a
good collection or we do not; and if
we do not, the dedication of the
teaching staff cannot make up for
it-
One sometimes hears people of
good will say so foolish a thing as,
"Why get more books? There are
more books here now than any
student can read." All such a
statement does of course, is. to
prove that the speaker completely
misunderstands' the intent and
function of a library. If a student
comes in, enthusiastic to pursue
his knowledge of, say, life in feu­dal
times, only to find that the
key collections and monographs he
wants are not in the library, his
interest wanes. Perhaps he can
borrow books on inter-library
loans; but this cannot be a com­mon
practice because it is expen­sive
'and time-consuming. More­over,
by.the time the books arrive,
the'student is interested in some­thing
else. The opportunity, the
drive, of his initial surge of. inter­est,
like first love, is gone forever.
Furthermore, the professors need
a full complement of early and
late texts in areas of their inter­ests,
periodicals and studies, not
simply to grow in wisdom and to
become richer teachers, but in or­der
to test their own critical and
scholarly idea's. Without original
and basic texts, we cannot fully-define
known and-unknown scho­larly
terrain; without a splendid
collection of secondary works; we
cannot be instructed and inspired
by our predecessors and our con­temporaries.
Doubtless many dis­tinguished
contributions have been
lost because we have lacked the
insights (and sometimes the print­ed
misapprehensions), of others,
for these are what of ten spark
more perceptive and rewarding
understandings.
- In short, we here , .at Auburn
simply cannot flourish as students
and as ' teachers until the library
becomes what a library should be
—an endless resource and inspira­tion^
where- we can have, when we
want it, in Arnold's phrase, "the
best that has been known and
thought in the world."
Iii view of these manifest needs,
the administration and the orga­nized
alumni have very reasonably
made increasing the holdings of
the library the Number One con­cern
of the current drive for funds.
At the conclusion of this drive Au­burn
will have roughly $750,000 to"
expend for books. Judged by what
we have done in the past, this ap­pears
a tremendous amount; but I
must report that, put into its pro­per
context, it is almost negligible.
In this connection we may pro­fitably
consider some statistics. I
here, includf. some non-regional
figures because I consider it need­lessly
provincial to measure our­selves
against good second-rate. In
terms of library excellence, we
cannot set our sights too high. We
should seek, not ;in tan but in
twenty years, to- have; one of the
best. libraries in the nation. Here
are some figures which -I: hope: will"
cause profound chagrin: ; •
First set of figures represents to­tal
number of books in library (to
nearest 1,000); second set of fig­ures-
represents amount expended
for books and periodicals 1960.61.
Auburn ;298,000 $ 95,000

Michigan 2,818,000. 532,000
* Alumni bulletin says Illinois has
now passed 4,000,000 mark.
It is, of course, impossible to
calculate accurately how many
volumes our $750,000 will buy—
perhaps between 100,000. and 125,-
000. At. the high figure, we shall
have' about half- as many books as
Alabama', which;is, even by reg­ional
standards, a far from great
collection. We have to accept the
brutal fact that the South in gen­eral
has not measured up, and that
we at Auburn have failed signally.
But need these grim figures be
the source . of despair? Certainly
not. 1'here is evidence that many
of the key people—governor, leg­islators,
administration, alumni,
faculty—are fully aware of the
terrible gap in the center of our
cultural line, After all, it has only
been in very recent years that the
alumni have been adequately in­formed
of' the great needs of. the
University. They have, rallied
splendidly in.emergency; they can
be expected- to rally, again in the
long,, hard pull for excellence.
Nothing' less is a worthy' goal for
the library.- . . . .'
Our task is, however, too great
for alumni, alone. Means must be
found for state appropriations for
books and periodicals to be tripled
or quadrupled Even then, as the
figures indicate, we shall have On­ly
a bare current equality with the
better universities of . the region.
And since we are already so far
behind,' and because we should
seek national pre-eminence, yet
more must be done.
'I suggest that alumni, friends,
regional and national industry—
all who have a state in our aca­demic
excellence—join to estab­lish
a Permanent Library Endow­ment:
A.modest figure for such a
fund '. is -$3,000,000. This amount
prudently; invested should make
available $.120,000 to $150,000 per

The functions of this new of­fice

By BOB REED
Plainsman News Writer
, A. recent measure approved by President Ralph B.
Draughon calls for the establishment of a new office to be
called the Office of Student Financial Aid.
According to Dr. Robert C. Anderson, University vice
president, this office is being established so that all financial
aid records can be kept in one s c h ( > l a r s h i p p r o g r a m j u n d e r the
policies of the Scholarship and
Loan Committee. Secondly, this
office will administer the Nation­al
Defense Education Act loans
for student education majors and
others under policies set up by
the National Defense Education
Act Committee. It will also ad­minister
the Student Emergency
Loan Fund.
A new function of the office
will be to raise funds for scho­larships
and loans. This will be
the first organized administrative
attempt at raising funds for scho­larships
at Auburn.
The new scholarship office will
be responsible for administering
the Veterans' Assistance program
of the federal government, and
for co-ordinating the work of the
personnel office in helping stu­dents
find employment. It will
also work closely with the pres­ent
high-school relations program
in recruiting superior students.
A Director of Student Financial
Aid will be appointed within the
next few weeks. Until that time,
Mr. P. M. Norton, the present Co­ordinator
of Veterans' Affairs,
will head the new office.
The new scholarship office is
located in temporary "quarters in
TB 16C on Thach Avenue di­rectly
across from Samford Hall.
Dr. Anderson had this to say
about the new office: "This is an
excellent decision on the part of
the president, one which should
provide better opportunities for
those who need financial assis­tance."

$10,000 Awarded
Science Program
A National Science Foundation
grant of $10,000 is being awarded
to the Auburn University aero­space
department to support an
undergraduate science education
program. Six students, two of
whom have been selected, will be
under the supervision of Prof.
Willima G. Sherling in the pro­gram.
The experimental project will
deal with the development of a
hypersonic tunnel now under con­struction
in the Auburn aerospace
laboratories. The tunnel has been
designed to create velocities and
temperatures similar to those en­countered
by reentry vehicles such
as John Glenn's Friendship Seven.
Robert Culberson, Glencoe, and
Wiley J. Robinson, Mobile, are the
two students already selected for
the program. With their four fel­lows,
who will be chosen soon,
they are to participate in the year­long
study full time during the
coming summer quarter and part
time during the 1962-63 year.

By ELMO TODD
Plainsman News Writer
Stan Sikes, a senior at Auburn
majoring in pre-law, qualified last
Thursday as a candidate for the
State Democratic Executive Com­mittee
from the Second Congres­sional
District. Sikes, whose home
is in Luverne, is seeking place
number two.
It is believed that this is the
first time an Auburn University
student has actively entered a
state political campaign.
During his career at Auburn,
Sikes has been veify active in sev-
I eral extracurricular activities. He
is a member of Pi Kappa Phi so­cial
fraternity and Spades, senior
men's leadership honorary; and he
is serving as president of Blue
Key leadership honorary and as
president pro-tem of the Student
Senate. In the past he has served
as president of Squires, sopho­more,
leadership honorary, and
was chairman of this year's Au­burn
Conference on International
Affairs.
The Democratic Executive Com­mittee
is the governing body of
the State Democratic Party. It is
composed of eight members from
each of the nine state congres­sional
districts.

LCA, PiKA
Withdrawals
Win In Campus Capers
Produce Low Entry Field
Lambda Chi Alpha, in the skit competition, and Pi Kap­pa
Alpha, in song competition, were first place winners in
the fraternity Campus Capers last Thursday night, March 1,
at the Union Ballroom. Only five out of the twelve scheduled
entries actually appeared for the performance.
In the skit competition, Lambda
Chi Alpha was followed by Sigma
Nu in second place, and Pi Kappa
Phi in third. The Lambda Chi skit
was entitled. "Space Shot," which
was a satire on Cape Canaveral
and the astronauts. It was unique
in that the skit had a pre-recorded
musical and narrative background,
consisting of popular songs re­lated
to the theme of the skit. Sig­ma
Nu's entry, "Babes in Foy-land"
was a satire on student life
at Auburn. Pi Kappa Phi did a
series of comic TV and radio com­mercials.
Sigma Chi, the only oth­er
entry, did a skit called "Slen-derella."
In the song competition, Pi Kap­pa
Alpha, the only group to per­form,
sang "All Hail, PiKA" and
"Kentucky Babe" under the leader­ship
of Harry Hall. There were
five other fraternitties entered in
the singing, but PiKA was the on­ly
one to appear.
A capacity crowd was on hand
to see the show, which moved
rather slowly, due to last-minute
cancellations and "no-shows." Of
the seven fraternities listed on the
program which did not appear, on­ly
three of them notified Campus
Capers officials of their cancel­lation.
Master of Ceremonies was Bob­by
Boettcher. Judges for both the
singing and the skits were Mrs.
Craig Hankenson, Dr. Earnest
Justice and Mr. Craig Hankenson.
Special entertainment was fur­nished
by Jimmy Haggard, who
played the piano while the judges
compiled the scores.
The sororities did not partici­pate
last week, but will have an­other
evening of Campus Capers
in spring quarter, exclusively for
sorority competition.
Sponsors for Campus Capers
were Blue Key and Mortar Board
honoraries.
LAMBDA CHI ALPHA fraternity is shown here in first-place winning skit in Campus Capers,
"Space Shot," preparing an astronaut for orbital flight. Members expressed regret that NASA failed
to send observers.

A Question Of Mathematics
We received administrative criticism last
week because in our editorial concerning
admissions we mentioned an average score
of 400 on t h e College Board Examination
r a t h e r t h a n a total score of 800, w h i c h will
be printed in t h e n ew catalogue.
Since this is a two-part test, we fail to
see any difference between an average
score of 400 and a total score of 800, but
perhaps this highly complex mathematical
concept is r a t h e r difficult to grasp and
does, as w e were told, lead to confusion.
If anyone was indeed led to this undesir­able
state, we apologize for our unwar­r
a n t e d assumption of a knowledge of sixth
grade arithmetic.
The actual test requirement, as stated
in the newly printed admissions booklet
furnished us by the Admissions Office—
reads as follows:
"Graduates of accredited Alabama sec­ondary
schools who a t t a i n composite scores
of 16 or above on t h e American College
Tests a r e academically eligible for admis­sion.
"Non-resident applicants must have
g r a d u a t e d from an accredited high school
w i t h an over-all average of " C " a n d have
a t t a i n e d a composite score of 18 on t he
American College Tests or a total score of
800 on t h e College Entrance Examination
Board's Scholastic Aptitude Test."
Despite the criticism and t h e misunder­standing,
we repeat that this admissions
requirement is to be commended as a step
toward higher academic excellence at Au­burn.
Book Burning In Texas
Book-burning is a disturbing form of
mass derangement which periodically af­flicts
various areas of the country. The
current outbreak is in Texas.
Though it has appeared elsewhere in
more virulent form, it is most evident in
Austin, the state's capital, where a special
textbook inxestigating committee has been
holding hearings, t h e effect has been hold­ing
hearings, t h e effect of which is to r e ­w
r i t e history.
J. B. Golden, director of t h e Texas. Ej3ji- .
cation Agency's textbook division, says nfs-""
t o r y books have been altered to meet de­mands
of conservative pressure groups.
These alterations, among other things,
appear' to involve elimination of favorable
references to t h e N ew Deal, t h e U n i t e d Na­tions
and the Tennessee Valley Authority.
Emphasized is a point stressed by t h e J o hn
Birch Society that our country should be
called a republic, r a t h e r t h a n a democracy,
an argument of record futility.
The campaign appears to have s t a r t e d to
Midland, Texas, and has gained momen­t
um in Amarillo, a city of 138,000, where
Amarillo College has removed from its l i b ­r
a r y shelves such books as A. B. Guthrie's
"The Way West" and Oliver La Farge's
"Laughing Boy," b o t h of which won Pulit­zer
Prizes. Also such American classics as
Steinbeck's "Grapes of Wrath," MacKin-lay
K a n t e r ' s "Andersonville," and Thomas
Wolfe's "Of Time and t h e River."
I n scornful opposition to t h i s movement,
J. F r a n k Dobie, Texan and nationally dis­tinguished
writer, testified:
"Censorship is never to let the people
know, but always to keep t h em in igno­rance;
never to b r i n g light, b u t always-to
darken.Tt is a n d foir -thousands of y e a r s h as
beeh a main force used by dictators and
a l l manner of tyrannical governments,
from Nero to Khrushchev."
A principal motive of t h e book burners
is fear—a desperate, middle-aged fear of
change, or unregimented thought, of life
itself. Admittedly this nuclear age h a s im­posed
great strains on t h e national forti­tude.
Vast, amorphous menaces which may
be lurking under t h e bed sometimes are
h a r d to explain away. But most sections
of t h e country have been able to k e e p t h e ir
chin up. I t would be a n i n t e r e s t i n g phycho-logical
project to determine what special
condition has frightened these Texans.—

American Public Needs To Study Literature On Communis
In Order To Prepare For Battle, Survive And Defeat Eneity
In order to. try to defeat
the opposition whether it be
on the football field or on the
battlefield you must have ade­quate
knowledge of his tech­niques,
tactics, and strategy.
Prior to a football game a team
will study the opponent's for­mations,
especially the ones
which are used consistently,
and they will also study films
of the other team in action.,
This knowledge is indeed ben­eficial,
for the team is prepar­ed
and knows what to expect
of the other team. If the team
has undergone an adequate
training program and can ex­ecute
their plays properly,
they can be termed "ready."
So too, if we wish to sur­vive
and defeat the menace of
communism, we must also be
"ready." Of course, this is
much more important than a
game, for our future, our
homes, and the peace of the
world are at stake. How can
we as students and citizens
be "ready?"
First, we must have an ade­quate
knowledge of the oppo­sition.
This would include his
purpose, goals, beliefs and how
he is attempting to bring them
about. Herbert A. Philbrick
said, "I believe that the dan­ger
we face from our enemy
is not as great as our own
apathy, indifference, and com­placency.
A large part of this
can be attributed directly to
By Richard Lane
lack of information and know­ledge."
This knowledge could easily
be obtained by reading Mast­ers
of Deceit by J. Edgar
Hoover. The House Commit­tee
on Un-American Activities
has two volumes of Facts on
Communism which are very
informative and can be ob­tained
easily and free of
charge. The publications of
this committee and the Sen­ate
Internal Security Subcom­mittee
are also informative as
is U.S. News and World Re­port,
The American Legion
Magazine and Firing Line,
Counterattack, and National
Review. Most of these can be
found in the library. It would
also be beneficial to read the
important works of Marx, En-gels,
Lenin, and Stalin, for in
the party's eyes their writings
are regarded as Communist
classics.
Their writings, it must be
remembered, are propaganda
for the communist movement.
Written by highly partisan and
prejudiced minds, they are not
based on scientific truth and
accurate historical research;
nor are they attempts to de­termine
truth as we in a free
society understand truth. They
are prime examples of how
prejudice, thrown into the
stream of world opinion, has
warped the minds and perso­nalities
of so many millions of
human beings. I believe this is
obvious to the average student.
However, then we have, as I
have pointed out in a n earlier
letter to the editor, propagan­da
or material which is in­tended
to deceive and subvert
our beliefs, by authors whose
names are not as easily recogn­ized
as Marx or Lenin, but
whose devotion to the com­munist
movement is just as
zealous. But, this too, can be
used against them. Naturally,
we first must be able to rec­ognize
it and then by reading
it we can obtain a first hand
knowledge of the "party-line."
I am speaking of Political Af­fairs,
National Guardian, or
International Affairs, among
others in our library.
The responsible person who
gains an understanding of com­munism
knows that such un-question:
"But what can I do
about it?" We can do a lot! The
important thing is to make
sure that we do not permit the
communists to fool us into be­coming
innocent victims. You
must, as J. Edgar Hoover states
derstanding should lead to the
in Masters of Deceit, know the
answers to the "Five False
Claims of Communism" and
know the ways to "spot" de­ceptive
Communist fronts.
Also, speakers who have a
knowledge of communism can
be asked to speak for interest­ed
groups and organizations.

Letters To The Editor . . .
Orr Takes Up Gauntlet, Begins Joust With Communist Byrd
As Conservative Legion Attacks Black Knight Of Liberalism
Editor, The Plainsman:
Please read and explain the
following letter to Mr. Byrd.
Dear Mr. Byrd,
Recently, you devoted an en­tire
column to the crucifixion of
Mike Plunkett, and conservatives
in general. It was, I think, a pass­ingly
fair job. You possess an ex­cellent
vocabulary, and, as an­other
feature in your intellectual
. cap, you also have read Don Qui­xote.
It is a shame, h o w e v e r ,
that a person possessing such a
vast knowledge is incapable of
arranging those words in such an
order as to achieve the desired
effect. For instance, whereas the
above mentioned article was a
nice stab at ridicule, your next
article was a serious article on
your part to define the differ­ence
between liberalism and con­servatism.
However, as it turned
out, the latter article was far
more ridiculous than the former.
In other words, Mr. Byrd, you
have a lot of ammunition (words)
for your anti-conservative artil­lery,
but your computer is a mite
weak.
^AncUnow, Mr. Byr.d.Hfeiy way-pf
enjp}£iS^ :£*}ittle*of$$6% right p i
be .different that the liberals have
so generously extended to us'
*'narrow-minded" bigots fl) am
going to correct a few of the most
serious errors in your latest prop­aganda
sheet (Feb. 29). (sic)
To begin with, your statement
that conservatives are opposed to
all liberal ideas is ridiculous. Har­ry
Goldwater/ Mr. Conservative
himself, is very much in favor of
large spending on defense. He
believes the Communist are a
threat from without as well as
from within. These are definite
liberal policies. Other examples
are easily found. (If you would
read something besides Ralph Mc-
Gill and Don Quixote, you might
learn a few facts). You devoted
a paragraph building up to the
idea that conservatives are guilty
of maintaining a "narrow set of
dogmatic principles," then some­what
later admit that the "re­sponsible
conservative leader­ship"
has repudiated that ultra
conservative, Robert Welch. How
contradictory! You continue by
stating that conservatives are
"anti-foreign aid," and then com­plicate
things by saying that lib­erals
"are trying to sell Democ­racy"
by example, and that "con­servatives
are trying to buy, it
with dollars." This doesn't even
make sense! (another typographi­cal
error, no doubt). By the way,
what kind of a "sale" it it when
the U.S. gives a country millions
of dollars, and that country be­comes
more and more pro-Com­munist,
and furthermore is con­trolled
by a dictator (considered
very undemocratic by the "nar­row-
minded" element?) By the
For example, on Tuesday, Ap­ril
24, Fulton Lewis III is sche­duled
to speak and show either
"Operation A b o l i t i o n " or
"Communism on the Map" at
the request of the Auburn
Young Republicans Club. An­other
thing that can be done
is for us all to take an active
part in our government by
writing and voicing our opin­ions
to our elected represen­tatives.
These are only a few of the
things that we CAN do. Yes,
we don't have to do any of
them though they are so vital -'.
to our security, because we
live in a free country. It has
been said that freedom is only
a word, until you nearly lose
it. Let us work and dedicate
ourselves to preserving this
word and its 'meaning —- for
many have given their lives so
that we might .enjoy i t
time you "intelligent" liberals
get through making all those
wonderful "sales," this country
will be in- a state of bankruptsy.
And without money, how do you
expect to make any more won­derful
"sales?" As a matter of
fact, it is the very failure of the
liberal foreign policy that has
caused the rise of conservatism.
The liberal foreign policy has
failed in the cold war with Com­munism,
and naturally ,the more
intelligent element of the coun­t
ry desires a change. The reason
it is difficult for you to determine,
the cause of the rise of conserva­tism
is because it would be neces­sary
for you to admit this, and of
course, being a true broadminded
liberal, you can't.
To top off your article, you
expound upon the tolerance and
broadmindness displayed by lib­erals
by stating that liberals "re­spect
a man's right to be conser­vative."
In the same article, how­ever,
you say that liberals are
justified in tagging conservatives
as "narrow-minded, bigoted," etc.
Boy, some respect!
After reading, your. article, Mr.
Byrd, I have come to the con­clusion
that the main difference
between liberals and conserva­tives
is that a liberal is nothing
more than a conservative with
his brains knocked out.
In closing, Mr. Byrd, in an ef­fort
to impress upon you the fact
that all conservatives are not so
"narrow-minded" as you think, I
would like to dedicate this bit of
Shakespeare to you and your col­umn.
"It's a tale told by an idiot,
full of sound and fury, signifying
nothing."
Love and kisses,

Editor, The Plainsman:
I would like to congratulate all
the students involved in the t r e ­mendous
success of the 1962 Au­burn
Conference On Internation­al
Affairs.
To name a few individuals
would be to do an injustice to the
many who cooperated in the ven­ture;
therefore, in my opinion, all
did a good job throughout the
conference and its planning.
Something of this nature requires
a great deal of self-sacrifice on
the part of its participants, and
there was an abundance of un­selfish
students working in this
project. v
From our standpoint, it is easy
to see that the representatives of
the news media were very im­pressed
with the proceedings. All
were most complimentary of the
student production of the affair.
Personally, I know of the inter­est
aroused because on both
mornings of the conference, I
was routed out of bed at dawn
by state TV stations asking for
taped interviews concerning the
conference.
Again, let me say that this con­ference
was excellently handled,
and I sincerely think that Au­burn
can go from this point to
establish something even greater
in this area.
i Sincerely,
L. B. Williams
Asst. Director of
Public Information
aerodynamic field and secondly
there was the matter of finding
out exactly what the Post Office
Department had done with a
large amount of prizes procur-red
as a result of the previous­ly
mentioned kiting. (At last
word they were headed toward
Jackson, Miss., on a striped hand­car
named "Mamie" owned by
the Greensboro and Fort Mudge
R.R.)
It is with a bit of apprehen-
.sion that the following sugges­tions
be made as they tend to en­ter
this writer (however non-existant
he may be) into the bru­tal
battlefield of Plainsman edi­torial
theory. But remembering
that this is the last issue of the
quarter and that campus elections
are creeping towards us, ready
to leap at our heads and thus di­vest
us of our reason, it isn't too
likely that these remarks will be
taken too seriously by extremists
of either side or that serious argu­ments
will arise. (No knights on
chargers, please.)
Rather than splinter up the
editorial page any longer with
the by-products of this bloody
Conservative-Liberal feud, this
' publication should take the ini­tiative
to promote harmony on
the campi (or is it campus) by
pleasing everyone, • while still
holding a definite party stand.
The Plaijisman, then, should sup­port
the American Whig Party.
(Precaution should be taken not
to confuse this with the British
Whig Party because you would
get your feet wet trying to meet
them half way.) Why should you
take this stand? It is quite ob­vious
if you care to examine their
record. Step over here a minute
and stare.
The Whigs were organized as a
Federalist Party, led by Alexan­der
Hamilton who, as every
schoolchild knows, favored a
strong, liberal government. Em­ploying
the fast break in 1818,
they became the National Repub­licans.
The use of the full break
in 1852 allowed most of them to
attain the rank of full Republican,
but some, aha!, became Demo­crats.
(British Whigs are now
honestly called liberal and some
of the real rousers are known as
radicals.)
Now, Mr. Editor, supporting a
faction with an impressively bi­partisan
history such as this, your
newspaper can judiciously mod­erate
the Wednesday morning
fights without being in the em­barrassing
position of not stand­ing
for anything. Then you could
stand for everything! (Except
missed deadlines; no newspaper
can stand for that.)
By pioneering this movement,
you could be instrumental in a
new power, for '64. Don't pass it
up.
Yours for a more subversive

Walker Fights To Correct U.S. Image,
But Image Is True, Real, Not Distorted
By W. H. Byrd
Political Harmony
On The Campus?
Editor, The Plainsman:
It was possibly apparent that
I missed a letter last week but
several other things were clutter­ing
up my schedule. First of all,
there was quite a bit of wind ex­perimentation
to he done in the
"The image of America, as I
have seen it in the Far East and
the West, is distorted and grotes­que
. . . a picture of corruption,
immorality, and materialism. This
kind of propaganda, combined
with censorship, has hastened our
retreat from victory through 16
years." Gen. Edwin Walker, USA
(resigned).
Thus spake Gen. Walker as he
began his right-wing crusade.
If reasons are needed for
launching right-wing crusades, I
suppose the above conviction is
sufficient. This mere student,
however, finds it difficult to share
the General's conviction. This, I
suppose, would put me far on the
left; and if I were important en­ough,
make me a prime target for
a Jack Acid-tipped javelin.
I can fully agree that a picture
of corruption, immorality and
materialism has hastened our re­treat
from victory. It is certainly
a nasty picture that any well-bred
foreigner would view with con­tempt.
It is certainly grotesque. I
disagree, however, that it is a dis­torted
image or that it is propa­ganda.
If Gen. Walker sees all honesty,
all morality and all spiritualism,
then, I feel, it is his image that is
distorted. Perhaps he has spent too
much time in the Far East and in
the West1 and not enough time in
his native land.
I too experienced something of
the image of. America as it is seen
, in the Far East. The Ugly Ameri­can
is a reality on every level.
This does not mean that every
American abroad presents a bad
example; but one rotten apple in
the barrel, etc. I remember our
troopship being held up in Sasebo
because a courageous Japanese la­dy
remained steadfast on the
gangplank ,to do or die, until a
clock which had been stolen by a
drunken GI was returned. Such
incidents are more than just pro­paganda
in the minds of coura­geous
Japanese ladies. As I recall,
the troop commander promised
immunity if the clock was re­turned.
In short, the American was
not interested that something had
been stolen, or that stealing is a--
crime, only that the lady V^Cfpte,..
the gangplank so the Ship could'
get underway. Where is the mora­lity
and justice in this?
If Russian workers read with
contempt that striking workers are
shooting at scabs, of if Nigerians ,
read that Southern Negroes are
being denied the .right to vote or
use public facilities, they are sim­ply
reading the truth as it is print­ed
in the daily press, not purpose­ful
propaganda. Our major virtue
seems to be that we are at least
open and generally truthful. Yet
we have the audacity to expect
that an impression of truthfulness
is going to make up for the mul­titude
of vices which we are so
doggedly truthful in reporting.
The TV quizz show scandals
which were generally condoned by
an apathetic public removes the
label of propaganda from the cor­ruption
image. Price fixing prac­tices
and under the table dealings
by public officials and corpora­tions
tend to make this writer
sympathetic with the foreign im­age
of our honesty.
Statistics on national purchasing
and standard of living indexes,
along with advertising practices
and w.riteups in the slick maga­zines
attests to a degree of ma­terialism
that few Russian citi­zens
could hope for. True we are
charitable with our wealth, as
witness the millions donated to
service organizations and charity
cases; but charity is deductable
from our income taxes. It seems
that the government has to bribe
us into loving one another, at least
on a large scale.
We consume with a madness for
possession, two cars, two TV sets,
automatic this-and-this, more and
more of. worse and worse, com­plete
with the latest innovation of
built-in obsolesence so we have to
get a new one next year. It is gro­tesque
image, but not as distorted
a one as Gen Walker would see.
But the General, on Army pay,
was perhaps not so directed to
ward materialism as our movie
stars, million dollar athletes, and
myriad of men in grey flannel
suits couched behind the vast im­personal
corporate desk, dedicated
to boosting consumption for their
personal survival. If there has
been propaganda about our ma­terialism,
it has probably kept the
image of our fanaticism from the
foreign eye.
And morality? Anyone who
reads past the comics and head­lines
of the daily press, and past
the fashion page of the popular
magazines, is aware of our moral
fibre. Rapes, murders, robberies,
kidnappings, blackmail, social in­justices,
sports fixes, juvenile de-linquincy,
reports of wholesale
cheating in schools, and any more
you happen to remember, are
commonplace, items that show our
face to the world. Not that we as
a nation are unique in our im­moral"
foible's, "bilt the facts hardly'
support, a propaganda label. Our:
prestige is not going to be helped
by putting on a holier-than-thou
attitude.
To change the image we project
abroad is going to require one of
two things; either we make an ef­fort,
as a nation, to correct the
image; or we resort to censoring
the image, cutting out the nasty
reports in the press and speaking
publicly only what will make us
look good to theforeign eye.This
is how Russia does it. The current
right wing effort seems to be
oriented toward the latter solu­tion.
If we have to become like
the Soviets to win the ideological
battle, then is the battle really
worth while?
Get Serious
Mr. Byrd!
Editor, The Plainsman:
Get serious Mr. Byrd!
In regard to your column writ­ten
last week entitled "Colleges
Move Toward Conservatism?
Negativism For Liberals Sets
Theme," I would like to make
these comments.
I find it very easy to follow a
man such as Senator Goldwater
or rather to adhere to his policies
as outlined in Conscience Of A
Conservative. After reading sev­eral
of the recent issues of The
Plainsman, it seems as if this "fol­low
the big man" idea is preval­ent
among the liberals also. Am
I correct in saying that Mr. Ralph
McGill is looked up to by var­ious
members of your staff? His
articles are often found verba­tim
in your paper.
You say that we are expressed
in the local conservative view­point
a anti-foreign aid senti­ment
among others. If we have an
anti-foreign aid sentiment, how
do you justify this statement?
"The liberals are trying to sell
democracy to the world, through
example; the conservatives are
trying to buy it with dollars."
Dollars that currently go to
Tito certainly would not be flow­ing
there if the true conservative
element could stem that tide.
Did you not say that the conserv­ative
sentiment was anti-foreign
aid?" We cannot put an excessive
amount of "foreign friendship"
while advocating restrictions be­ing
put on foreign aid donations.
Explain.
Then to quote you again, "And
when any little nation into which
we have poured a few paltry dol­lars
proclaims its neutrality, the
conservative voice yells even
louder." In my estimation a few
paltry dollars can be slipped un­der
the door with ease; to pour
you must have billions which is
the case today. You know billions,
terms we measure the national
debt with.
No we are not disturbed that
foreign aid has not brought us
obedient friends. We never ex­pected
it to and do not recall ad­vocating
that it would. However,
I am glad you realize that in the
case of dealing with sovereign
states money does not buy loyal­ty;
Belgrade proved this.
The conservatives do not op­pose
all liberal ideas or objec­tive.
We just balk at some of the
methods they use to gain these
objectives. I suggest that readers
carefully scan the next issue of
the Campus Conservative. In it
they can find what conservative
mind really is. After all Mr. Byrd,
there are more ardent ways to
build a conservative's ego than to
call him a narrow minded, bigot­ed,
prejudiced, and what-have-you
individual. That is the real
question sir. What do you have?

Editor, The Plainsman:
It was extremely flattering of
you to suggest to one of your
readers that he read about the

viewpoint. If you will al­low
me, I would like to bring you
up-to-date on some of the
"right" good projects my asso­ciates
and I are promoting. We

many thanks for mentioning us in

A Service
To Conservatism
Editor, The Plainsman:
Mr. W. H. Byrd's column of
last week was an amazing piece
of verbiage constructed of weasel
words, se|P-contr,adicfaons, and
illogical conclusions.
Mr. Byrd begins, by expressing
his fear that "the words ('con­servative'
and 'liberal') do not
mean exactly what we would like
them to." No such fear is evi­dent,
however, when, later, he
bravely labels the ardent con­servative
"narrow-minded, bigot-ed.
prejudiced and what-have-you."
If Mr. Byrd feels justified
in using such strongly derogatory
adjectives—as apparently he does
— in describing something about
which he admittedly knows a lot
less than everything, then I re­spectfully
submit that he is much
more deserving of them than his
adversaries.
Mr. Byrd then talks on about
the conservative's "disrespect for
the liberal viewpoint" as if this
were some terrible sin, while his
own obvious disrespect for the
conservative view-point is, he
feels, quite all right. Toward the
end of his column he makes an
abortive attempt at self-exonera­tion
by piously stating that "Lib­eralism
at least respects a man's
right to be conservative." Al­though
numerous cases can be
cited to prove the falsity of this

"SOMETHING NEW EVERY DAY"
statement (see, for example, Part
I of William F. Buckley, Jr.'s Up
From Liberalism, I will content
myself,with making the sugges­tion
that there is a world of dif­ference
between respecting a per­son's
viewpoint and respecting
his right to hold that viewpoint.
In an audacious display of his
abilities in the art of self-con­tradiction,
he first accuses the
conservative of being "anti-for­eign
aid," then accuses him of
"trying to bat (democracy) with
dollars."
Along with the "anti-foreign
aid" charge, Mr. Byrd levels "an.
ti-U.N." and "anti-Earl Warren"
charges at the conservative. Sim­ply
because someone has, on oc­casion,
expressed criticism of the
U.N., Mr. Byrd concludes that
that person is "anti-U.N." (Iden­tically
formulated syllogism:
Anyone who has ever expressed
criticism of Auburn University is
"anti-Auburn." The p r e s e n t
Plainsman editor, has, on occa­sion,
criticized Auburn Univer­sity.
Therefore the present Plains­man
editor is "anti-Auburn.")
And so on . . . and on . . . and
on. The number of points where
Mr. Byrd exemplifies the "cloud
nine" thinking which is charac­teristic
of not many of today's lib­erals
is limited only by the length
of his column. The_ most bene­ficial
service he could perform
for conservatism is to keep on
writing.

year; and that plus a castly in­creased
state appropriation would
indeed place us on the road to a
truly great -library. I do not be­lieve
that such endowment in­come
should" he: expended" for staff
and maintenance (although our
needs are great here, too), for I
believe our friends will take most
pride in.contributing to what they
know is a permanent fund for the
purchase of" books.'• . ;
It would seem to me that local
businesses; banks and regional and
national .industries (especially
those whichhave branches or fac­tories
in.Alabama or the South)
could contribute shares of stock to
such a fund. Instead of. giving nar­rowly
to an ar'eaf of particular
vested interest, contributors could
affirm their faith in the library as
a center of higher education by a
gift born of disinterested and no­ble
magnanimity.
Such a fund, though great, is
truly an economical way to pur­chase
academic supremacy. For a
collection of- books is not simply
a set of'filled shelves. It is a vital
and vibrant force. It breeds intel­lectual
excitement. It gathers to
it great minds. When we .have it,
promising young professors will
accept positions.at Auburn (some­times
for less money), for they
will need the library to further
their knowledge.. They will not
only teach.. inspiringly, they will
work out and publish their inter­pretations
of literature, history, of
economic or biological forces. Thus
they arid the University will grow
in prestige. To this campus, drawn
by the distinction of the library
and of the teaching staff, w i ll
come promising students; and
when they go, yet more and more
promising ones will come.
Those who contribute their
money or their stock will find
dividends beyond their wildest
dreams. Better trained, more ac-ticulate,
and more- generally en­lightened
graduates will reward
their employers, grace their com­munities,
and enrich their region
and their nation. .
A great library in itself cannot
guarantee greatness. But a great
library is indispensable to general
greatness; with it our pursuit of
educational' distinction need know
no limits. There-is-no other way.

Faculty Salaries Show Steady Rise
25% Increase Over Past 5 Years;
AU Still Ranks Far Below Average
By DON PHILLIPS
Assistant Features Editor
By now most Alabamians know that their state has fal­l
e n behind even Mississippi, and now ranks fiftieth in the na­t
i on in money spent per pupil for education. A combination
of low legislative appropriations and proration has taken its
toll on the state educational system in many ways. Every
year we find it is normal to hear
of threatened school closings,
threatened teacher walkouts, and
threatened salary cuts, that we
show no surprise when we hear
of them. For the most part they
remain threats, however, and
Alabama trods slowly along,
managing somehow to keep its
head above water.
One way in which this low pu­pil-
to-dollar ratio takes its toll
is in our building programs.
Another.way in which the sit­uation
takes its toll is the loss of
quality teachers. Who can blame
a teacher for taking another
state's offer of a substantial sal­ary
increase for performing the
same job. Of course, there are
other factors to consider, such as
climate, working conditions, re­search
f a c i l i t i e s , etc., but in
some cases a school may gain or
lose a high quality professor be­cause
of the salary it is prepared
to pay.
For this reason, Auburn has
concentrated over the past few
years on both increasing faculty
salaries and bettering working
conditions. Five years ago, in
1957-58, the average full pro­fessor
in 9 months made $6,671,
the average associate professor
made $5991, the average asst. pro­fessor
made $4886, and the aver­age
instructor made $3961. Today
the figures are $8310, $7457, $6202
and $4765, resepectively. These
salaries may seem low until it is
considered that they are for 9
months and do not include any
summer pay. Today Auburn em-

I • •

?{J.S.PUBUC m%r.
ploys approximately 500 faculty
members, with about 25 per cent
in each rank.
It can be easily seen, however,
from the accompanying graph
that on the average, the Auburn
professor makes a substantially
lower salary in all four ranks
than his counterparts in o t h er
p a r t s of the country, in­cluding
the Southeast, even
though salaries have increased by
approximately 25 per cent over
the past 5 years. This "gap" be­tween
Auburn and other schools
certainly puts Auburn at a fi­nancial
disadvantage in employ­ing
professors.
During this 5 year period, Au­burn
has managed to merely
"hold its own" in relation to
salaries being paid at similar
southeastern universities. How­ever,
during the same 5 year pe­riod,
its position has improved
slightly in relation to similar uni­versities
in the nation as a whole.
This reflects the salary improve­ment
which is going on in all
southeastern universities.
To close the salary gap between
Auburn and all other similar uni­versities
would take a salary in­crease
of approximately 17 per
cent over normal increases. An
over-all increase of 8.5 per cent
would enable Auburn to come up
to the level of other southeastern
institutions. This could be con­sidered
a first step, for as the
graph illustrates, our "normal"
increases, along with those of
other southern schools, are gradu.
ally closing the gap which now
exists between the South and the
nation as a whole.
It should be noted that the
relative salary position of the Au­burn
faculty has steadily im­proved
in real dollars, over the
past 22 years. For the year, 1961-
62, the average Auburn professor
was paid 298.3 per cent of his sal­ary
in 1939-40. It may be said
however that a dollar is not
worth as much today as it was
in 1939. Adjusted as to dollar
value, the average Auburn pro­fessor
is paid 139 per cent of
his salary of 1939-40, so it may
be seen that salary increases have
constantly kept ahead of the cost
of living.
The Administration is hamper­ed
in it's efforts to increase sala­ries
by the fact that Alabama is
so low in money spent for edu­cation.
Between salary increases
and other very necessary expen­diture,
desirable but unnecessary
items must sometimes be cut, or
left out entirely. In short, in or­der
to provide for our necessi­ties
the Administration must put
on an "internal squeeze." It is
hoped that in the future this sit­uation
can be improved. It will be
remidied only when the people
of this state become aware of the
seriousness of our situation and
do something about it.

Learning never stops for engineers at Western Electric
There's no.place at Western Electric for engi­neers
who feel that college diplomas signify
the end of their education. However, if a man
can meet our quality standards and feels that
he is really just beginning to learn . . . and if he
is ready to launch his career where learning is
an important part of the job and where gradu­ate-
level training on and off the job is encour­aged
— we want and need him.
At Western Electric, in addition to the nor­mal
learning-while-doing, engineers are en­couraged
to move ahead in their fields by sever­al
types of educational programs. Western
maintains its own full-time graduate engineer­ing
training program, seven formal manage­ment
courses, and a tuition refund plan for
out-of-hours college study.
This learning atmosphere is just one reason
why a career at Western Electric is so stimu­lating.
Of equal importance, however, is the
nature of the work we do. Our new engineers
are taking part in projects that implement the
whole art of. modern telephony, from high­speed
sound transmission and solar cells to
electronic telephone offices and computer-con­trolled
production techniques.
Should you join us now, you will be coming
to Western Electric at one of the best times in
the company's history. In the management
area alone, several thousand supervisory jobs
are expected to open up to W.E. people within
the next 10 years. And our work of building
communications equipment and systems be-'
comes increasingly challenging and important
as the communications needs of our nation and
tlie world continue to increase.
Challenging opportunities exist now at Western
Electric for electrical, mechanical, industrial, and chemi­cal
engineers, as well as physical science, liberal arts,
and business majors. All qualified applicants will re­ceive
careful consideration for employment without
regard to race, creed, color or national origin. For more
information about Western Electric, write College Rela­tions,

Broadway, New York 38, New York. And be sure to
arrange for a Western Electric interview when our
college representatives visit your campus.

Tigers Down Bama, Close Season With 62-49 Win;
Finish Third In Conference Race, Post 11-3 Record
By JOHN WALLACE
Managing Editor
The Auburn Tigers closed out
the 1961-62 cage season with a
62-49 victory over the University
of Alabama in Montgomery Sat­urday
night.
The win left the Plainsmen
with an 11-3 record in -confer­ence
play, good enough for
third spot, and 18-6 overall
Auburn's All-SEC center Lay-ton
Johns and guard Larry Chap­man
pumped in 16 points apiece
to pace the team. Forward Mack
Kirkland scored 10 and captain
Bill Ross, playing in his last col­lege
game, hit for nine in the vic­tory.
Rebounds and free throws fig­ured
heavily in the win for the
Tigers as they dominated the
boards and hit on 18 of 22 at­tempts
from the charity stripe.
Auburn gathered off 48 rebounds
to 27 for the Crimson Tide with
Johns raking in a good share of
the stray basketballs.
Hot shooting from the outside
pushed Bama off to an early 12-
10, lead as they connected on six
straight shots from beyond the
circle. Johns carried the load for
Auburn in the early stages of the
game as he tallied eight of the
first 10 points the Plainsmen
scored. Kirkland took up the
slack with three key baskets and
the Tigers were off and running.

Baby Tiders Blast All Frosh 78-62;
Free Throw Accuracy Is Big Factor
Bama Beaten
By JOE FULLER
; Backboard control and deadly
Jfree throw accuracy were the
• dominating factors which en-fabled
the Alabama freshmen to
Jblast Auburn 78-62 in Montgom­e
r y on Saturday night. The-Tide
Jcashed in on 24 out of 29 at­tempts
from the charity line as
<they gained sweet revenge for
Jan earlier season loss to the
'Tigers.
The Baby Tigers jumped off to
;an early 6-0 lead and it looked
;as if this game would be a re-ipeat
of the earlier one. With nine
[minutes left in the first half, the
;Tide grabbed a 17-15 lead and
proceeded to pour on the steam
as they left at the end of the
first period leading 42-21.
In the second half the Baby
Tide continued the onslaught as
Bob Andrews and Bambi How-land
led the scoring parade. Joe
Newton, the Tigers'- leading scor­er,
fouled out with only three
minutes gone in the second half.
Freddie Guy, playing his usu­ally
fine game, led the Tigers on
offense with 16 points. Billy Biles
and Lee Defore scored 12 and 9
points respectively for the Baby
Tigers.
.: Andrews, J i m Brown, and
Denny Magee, the trio that play­ed
their high school ball together
in Bridgeport, 111., scored 46 of
the Tide's 72 points. Andrews was
high scorer for the night as he
bucketed 27. Howland with 16,
Perry with 13 and Magee with
11, rounded out the top scorers
for Bama.
Although finishing the season
on a sour note, the Baby Tigers
compiled a very respectable 16-2
record for the year. Their only
other loss was- to Georgia Tech
in Atlanta.

Conservation Club Meets
The Auburn Conservation Club
met the first time with 30 char­ter
members composed of stu­dents,
faculty and staff. They
have leased a ten-acre fishing
lake about 10 miles from Auburn
for their own exclusive use. The
lake is 6 years old and is stocked
with Bass, Bluegill, and Shell-crackers.
The purpose of the organization
will be to promote conservation
of and beneficial use of all na­tional
resources, fish, and wild­life.
Also, organized rifle and pis­tol
shooting among citizens of the
community, with a view toward a
better knowledge on the safe
handling and proper use of fire­arms,
as well as improved marks­manship,
will be encouraged.
This lake will be the club's first
project. The dam on the lake has
been built up about three feet
and needs sodding. The mem­bers
of the club are in the proc-cess
of cleaning the underbrush
around the lake making it a
more suitable place for picnics
and other recreation. The lake
is surrounded by rolling hills
and pine.
The club also anticipates buy­ing
a reloading outfit for shot
shells and rifle cartridges. The
organization, being affiliated with
the National Rifleman Associa­tion,
will receive from the NRA
four Ml rifles, four .45 cal. pis­tols
and 135 rounds of ammuni­tion
for each member per year
for their own use.
Another project included in the
present plans is obtaining suit­able
land for the purpose of hunt­ing
activities. Conservation rneth.
ods suitable for the game on this
land will be put into practice.
It shall be the further objec­tive
and purpose of the club to
forward the development of those
characteristics of honest, good
fellowship, self-discipline, team
play and self reliance which are
the essentials of good sports­manship
and the foundation of
true patriotism.
The number of memuers is ex­pected
to increase considerably.
The club is open to mernb'ers
at any time. The next meeting
will be March 29 at 7 p.m. in 300
Samford Hall.
Officers elected for the club
are Glenn Mohler, President; Wil­son
Worley, Vice President; Mar­shall
Jones, Secretary; James
O'Neal, Treasurer, and Bill Du-pire,
Executive Officer and Chief
Instructor. Mr. Paul Mattox of
