So many times we have heard
I students lament upon the ineffic­iency
of the University Infirmary
land its staff. After visiting them
[last Saturday night with a good
lease of the well-known flu in the
I preliminary stages, we have to
| disagree.
The staff nurse on duty was
I more than willing to hand out
some pills and a little motherly
I advice about staying in bed and
all that. As a result we are not
as unfortunate as many of our
associates who have had to miss
classes because of the epidemic of
I influenza.
While awaiting the arrival of
I this lady in white, we talked with
ari interesting chap at the receiv­ing
desk about the infirmary sit­uation
as a whole and the present
problem in particular. He related
a story that might be of some
| interest to the reader:
It was observed last Thursday
I night (you will remember that it
I was quite cold) that three of the
coed-type patients of the hospital
j were literally "hanging" out of
: an upstairs ward window talking
to a male-type student on the
ground. We do not contend that
people in sick beds should be iso­lated
from the opposite sex, but
in view of the girls' condition the
nex"!' morning, we believe they
would have fared better by stay­ing
in bed. One had a 104 degree
temperature (a noticeable in­crease
over the night before) and
another got pneumonia for her
troubles.
Of course, the medics and the
infirmary catch the blame. for
such incidents. Sometimes it just
isn't their fault.
* * *
It was suggested to us this week*
by a reader (he forgot to sign his
name to his letter) that maybe
Auburn students should get into
the "fitness" game that is so pop­ular
nowadays.
Our friend did indicate that we
might try our luck at a sport not
quite as grueling as hiking 50
miles or sitting in one place all
week-end. (A kid at Yale gets
the prize for this feat). He thinks
it would be amusing to test the
skills of an Auburn man and wo­man
as measured by the "kisso-meter"
which was conceived by a
couple of students in a physics
lab at the University of Miami.
It is a wonderful idea and we're
sure it would receive an over­whelming
vote of confidence from
the undergrads. It is doubtful,
however, that the administration

Theologian Speaks
Here Next Monday
One of the leading contempo­rary
theologians in the country
will speak at Auburn University
on March 4.
He is Dr. Henry Nelson Wie­man,
professor emeritus of the
Divinity School, University of
Chicago and currently on the staff
of Southern Illinois University.
Dr. Wieman, who is being pre­sented
by the Auburn University
Concert and Lecture Series, will
speak on "The Basic Problem for
Religion." The lecture will be
held in Langdon Hall at 8:15 p.m.
Dr. Wieman is the author of
several books, including "The
Source of Human Good," "Man's
Ultimate Commitment" and "In­tellectual
Foundation of Faith."
Of the 40 members who will
sing tonight, less than half will
be with the choir six months
from now, a unique turn-over in
all-male choral groups. The rea­son
is primarily due to members
moving further along into the ad.
vanced flight training program.
The flying sailors have a full
program of ballads and chants
about the work and adventures
of sea-faring and flying men,
hymns and anthems and modern
secular chorus music. Under its
professional standards, musical
precision and polish are as much
the order of the day as military
smartness and discipline.

Agriculture Council Holds Convocation
Tomorrow Night In Dunstan Auditorium
By BOB REED
News Editor
The Agriculture Council, in cooperation with the School
of Agriculture, is sponsoring a convocation on "Job Oppor­tunities
In Agriculture" tomorrow night at 7 p.m.
This convocation, which will be
held in the Dunstan Hall Audi­torium,
is one of a series of agri­culture
conferences which h a ve
been held once each quarter for
the past three years.
The principal speaker will be
Mr. W. E. Glennon, president of
the American Feed Manufacturers
Association, Inc. He has held this
office for the past thirteen years.
Prior to that time he held other
offices in the AFMA, as well as
being a member of various other
agricultural and commercial or­ganizations
and holding the posi­tion
of General Manager of the
Bement Grain Company. Glen­non
received his B.S. from the
University of Illinois in 1934.
Dan Smith, president of the
Agricultural Council, is in charge
of overall co-orodination of the
program. The convocation will be
co-educational and open to the
general public.
According to Dean E. V. Smith,
Dean of the School of Agriculture
and Director of the Alabama Ex­periment
Station, the purpose of
the convocation is two-fold: first,
to acquaint the Auburn students
with the many job opportunities
available in the field of agricul­ture;
and second, to acquaint the
visiting agricultural leaders with
the facilities Auburn has to offer.
As Dean Smith said, "I see the
convocation as a two-way street.
In one direction it helps to make
the Auburn students aware of the
many and varied job opportunities
available in agriculture and its re­lated
fields. On the other hand, it
gives us a chance to impress the
visiting speaker with the Auburn
students, the faculty, and the fa­cilities
we have at our disposal.
In this way the speaker can act
as a good-will ambassador for
Auburn."

Auburn Struck By Influenza Epidemic;
Infirmary Filled Beyond Normal Capacity
By VICTORIA HRUTKAY
Plainsman News Writer
The influenza epidemic which has been sweeping the na­tion
has struck Auburn's campus. -• j'i
The infirmary, which under normal circumstances will
accommodate about 65 students, had 80 to 85 patients at' ari
estimation made last Thursday. In order to be able to treat
everyone* the infirmary, under
the direction of Dr. Brown, hired
several assistants and opened up
another ward and moved in beds
from Magnolia Dormitories.
According to Dr. Brown in a re­port
obtained last Sunday, the
epidemic has temporarily been
brought under control because
many students have gone home
for the weekend. However, Dr.
Brown expects Sunday's total of
40 patients to swell again begin­ning
Monday.
In 1957 a flu epidemic which
lasted three months broke out at
Auburn. Aside from the 80 stu­dents
in the infirmary at that
time, there were approximately
30 put in Alumni Hall, 30 in Au­burn
Hall, and another 40 in
Magnolia Dormitories.

Dr. Frank Graham Delivers Address In Auburn
United Nations In The Atomic Age
Is Theme Of Noted Statesman
By HARRY WILKINSON
Managing Editor
"Educator, statesman, humanitarian." These were the
words used to introduce Dr. F r a n k P. Graham, United Na­tions
Ambassador for India and Pakistan, upon his appear­ance
in Auburn last week.
G r a h am is a man somewhat small in s t a t u r e but l a r g e in
his concepts and knowledge of
mankind. His civil service record
spans two lifetimes of most Au­burn
students. President of the
University of North Carolina,
United States Senator, and Unit­ed
Nations Mediator in the r e ­cent
Dutch-Indonesian dispute
are some of the many positions
which he has held.
"The United Nations In The
Atomic Age" was the theme of
Dr. Graham's address. He stated
that "the problems of the world
lean up against the United Na­tions,
and the United Nations
leans up against such institutions
as Auubrn." He emphasized the
vital importance of such legisla­tive
enactments as the Morrill
Land-Grant Act to provide the
world with the knowledge neces­sary
for its peace and preserva­tion.
A pointed need for a strong
United Nations was called to the
attention of the Auburn audience.
"The people of this nation found
that their historic isolation behind
the two great oceans could not
keep them out of World War I.
Staying out of the League of Na­tions
did not keep them out of
World War II. The American peo­ple
decided that, instead of stay­ing
on the outside and being
drawn into world wars after they
start, they would join the United
Nations and t ry more effectively
on the inside to prevent the be­ginning
of a third world war in
this hazardous atomic age."
A further call was made for
Americans to be true to our own
historic revolution, legislative de­clarations,
presidential proclama­tions,
and judicial decisions for
the equal freedom, dignity, and
opportunity of all people, regard­less
of region or race, color or
creed, national origin or economic
status. We are looked to for lead­ership.
"At the great Bandung Con­ference
of the representatives of
a billion and a half of the peoples
of Asia and Africa, in his address
of welcome, the eloquent Sukanro
spoke these opening signigicant
words: 'We are gathered today on
the 181st anniversary of the mid­night
ride of Paul Revere as the
beginning of the first successful
revolt against colonialism in
modern times'."
Dr. Graham stated that the
United Nations was being at­tacked
by the extreme right in
America and the extreme left
around the world. His explana­tion
of the Congo situation illus­trated
the undesirable but ulti­mate
alliance of the two forces
there. He termed the Congo situa­tion
and outcome as one to be r e ­garded
of great import in future
years. The Congo was cited as a
vacuum of power at the height of
its conflict. With the presence of
two opposing power sources in
today's world, the impossibility of
the existence of a balance of
power was illustrated.
A situation had been created
which could well have determin-
UN REPRESENTATIVE AT AUBURN—Dr. Frank P. Graham, the U. N. representative for In­dia
and Pakistan and former educator and statesman from North Carolina, had a visit with old
friends while on the Auburn University campus for a lecture last week. From left are Dr. M. C.
Huntley, dean of faculties; Dr. Graham, D. C. P. Anson, head of the department of economics, and
Dr. Clyde H. Cantrell, director of libraries.
ed the fate of the free peoples
of Africa. Dr. Graham cited com­munist
realization of this vacuum
and pointed to a timely closing
of a key airport as the action pre­venting
such infiltration. This ac­tion
was taken by a representa­tive
of the United Nations, an
American, in the Congo at this
time.
He further pointed out that
Tshombe was not a representa­tive
of the major element of Ka­tanga's
population, and cited the
Katangese representatives' votes
for a united republic.
Graham concluded by pointing
out the created alliance of the
UN's critics on the Congo situa­tion.
He declared that no UN in­tervention
would have created
the vacuum of power aforemen­tioned,
and consequently, the
likely take over of the Congo by
a foreign power. Cuba was used
as an illustration.
A reply was made to queries
concerning the United States' fin­ancial
support of the United Na­tions.
Graham pointed to the his.
torical evolution of the financial
structure of the UN. He stated
that no nation is requested to pay
more than one-third of the cost
of its existence despite that na­tion's
portion of the productive
wealth of the world. Today, the
United States pays roughly this
amount of the organization's cost.
He pointed to the fact that the
cost of the UN to the individual

citizen of the United States is
about 54 cents (a little over $1
including emergency assessments
such as use of UN military for
ces). The City of New York alone
gets most of this investment back
in municipal services according
to Dr. Graham.
The point was further elabor
ated by stating that no nation has
refused to make payment of its
regular dues to the United Na­tions.
It is only on those emer­gency
assessments of which cer­tain
nations disagree with UN ac­tion
to be taken that refusals to
make payment are declared.

WEST SIDE STORY
Last week one of the staff members of
this paper reported that the production of
"West Side Story" by the Auburn Dance
Corps was partially financed by funds al­lotted
to the Women's Recreation Associa­tion
from student activities fees.
This reporting was done in good faith on
the basis of personal conversation with
someone presumingly "in the know" on
such matters.
After consulting with Mrs. Louise Tur­ner,
director of the dance group and pro­ducer
of "West Side Story," we feel we
should set the record straight.
Following is a list of statements made by
Mrs. Turner in the hope that it bring about
a better understanding of the function of
The Auburn Dance Corps:
"West Side Story," the most recent of­fering
of the Auburn Dance Corps, holds a
unique position with regard to what have
been loosely termed productions.
"1. 'West Side Story' is a dance vehicle;
conceived, directed and choreographed by
by a dancer, Jerome Robbins. Therefore,
by virtue of its origin, 'West Side Story'
would be more in the province of dance
than in some other area.
"2. The cast was chosen at OPEN TRY-OUTS.
None of the leads or other parts
were pre-cast to assure a gala performance.
Talent was trained and instructed and de­veloped
from the group which expressed
an interest in performing in the cast. "
"3. The cast of 35 is considered a large
cast show; none of the parts are simply
walk on.' The cast was all student with the
exception of two secretaries and three
high school students. Thirty of the cast had
never appeared in a university production
of any kind previously.
"4. NO UNIVERSITY FUNDS WERE
AVAILABLE FOR THIS PRODUCTION.
No student fees were surreptitiously used
for purposes of the Auburn Dance Corps.
"5. Donations solicited from sponsors
were the only funds supplied for 'West Side
Story,' the remainder of the cost of the pro­duction
is the financial obligation of
LOUISE TURNER, who has personally fi­nanced
the Auburn Dance Corps in this
venture as well as for the past five years.
"6. The fact that the Auburn Dance
Corps was able to produce 'West Side Story'
without benefit of outside help or other de­partmental
assistance really substantiates
the fact that the Auburn Dance Corps is, in
fact, a PRODUCING GROUP.
"7. The Director of the Auburn Dance
Corps personally directed the music, dra­ma,
choreography, publicity, lights, cos­tumes,
scenery, make-up and all other de­tails
of the production without benefit of
assistance from any other groups of indi­viduals."
Mrs. Turner also stated that hers was
the first group to furnish an illustrated
souvenir program for such a production.
In this program she gave proper credit to
everyone connected with the venture in
any manner.
Those are the words of the person most
closely connected with the proceedings of
"West Side Story."
When a member of this staff reports in­correctly,
we are more than agreeable in*
bringing the real facts to light. Part of the
training derived by a student journalist is
the importance of checking facts before he
writes them. But then the question is raised
as to just how far should one go before he
is sure he. has all the facts in their true
perspective. It is evident that we did not go
far enough in this matter. We regret the
embarrassment brought to Mrs. turner and
to the Women's Recreation Association.

ONE MORE FOR GOOD MEASURE
Letters To The Editor...
ODK President Comments On Column;
Mayor Discusses Community Relations
INTOLERANCE
Tolerance is a term that takes quite a
beating on the Auburn campus at various
times. The latest examples have been some
verbal criticisms of the appearance of Dr.
Frank Graham in Auburn. For those who
might not know, and there were not more
than fifty students present for the address,
Dr. Graham is the United Nations Ambas­sador
for India and Pakistan. Quite natu­rally,
Graham holds some pro-United Na­tions
views which are evidently not those
of some members of this university com­munity.
Auburn students and townspeople upon
occasion seem to forget that hearing both
sides of a given situation and making an
objective personal decision therefrom is
one of the important means to education.
Distinguished citizens from any walk of
life and of most any thought should be wel­come
on this campus. If the educated lis­tener's
beliefs are strong and well-founded,
he has nothing to fear from hearing the
other side of the story. If his beliefs are in­firm,
they should and likely will be chang­ed.
Education rests on such objective reas­oning.
An important point to be considered here
is mention of the educated listener. Most
, local critics we have heard are those who
do not attend the addresses of those to
whose presence they object. For all they
know, in this given time and situation the
"hated" speaker may have advocated those
beliefs dearest to the critic's heart.
Our reaction to such people can only be
one of pity and polite scorn. We cannot
sympathize with anyone whose beliefs can­not
tolerate an objective appraisal from
the other side of the fence. We pity these
same people because intolerance is the
word they have somehow misconstrued to
mean education.
We are proud to have men of distinction
like Dr. Frank Porter Graham appear on
the Auburn campus. Our only hope is that
opponents of such appearances can find a
corner dark enough and small enough in
which to hide the progenies of their narrow
minds.—Wilkinson.
CHOOSE WISELY
The time of the year is upon us. That
time of year when the Auburn Student
chooses his government and his represen­tation
for the next full school year. It is an
eventful time . . . nominations coming al­most
on top of finals . . . then elections
coinciding with six-pacs and blankets and
creek-banking and house parties. For this
reason, and many others, this season is
welcomed by sarcastic Plainsman editor­ials,
more sarcastic Plainsman cartoons,
and an apathetic attitude by many true-blue
(and orange) Auburnites.
This editorial staff would admonish the
political parties, and their members, to
weigh with utmost care the persons who
compose the slates. Weigh their respective
merits and decide on this basis—no other
—who would best serve this campus. It
has been the practice at various times
in the past for the "wheels" of various
groups to make deals with one another in
order to insure that "our boy" will be nomi­nated,
and possibly, elected. This is a shod­dy
substitute for clean politics, even though
it does serve the purpose to get someone
elected.
Vote. That's right, vote. This may be a
wierd word to some of the readers. Voting
means exercising" your inherent right to
speak out against, or for, certain political
beliefs and individuals. Many of you will
think it is corny as hell to hear the old say­ing
"every single vote counts." It may be
corny, and we couldn't care less. The fact
is that elections have been won, and will
be won, by one vote. Independents and
fraternity members alike have the powr
of the vote, and those who don't exercise
this power would have been just useful had
they dropped out of high school and never
attempted to enter an institute of higher
learning.—Williams.
Editor, The Plainsman,
Omicron Delta Kappa feels that
some factual comment on the
Bruce Greenhill Journalism Scho­larship
is in order after the irres­ponsible
editorializing which ap­peared
in connection with this
scholarship in last week's column
under the editor's byline.
You will be happy to be in­formed
that the scholarship has
never been "discontinued" since
its origin in 1954. As conceived
by the Auburn Chapter of Blue
Key, the scholarship was designed
so that interest accrued on the
investment of the original capital
plus any new income to the fund
would be applied toward helping
meet the expense of tuition fees
for a worthy student in Journal­ism.
The original capital was
realized through solicitations of
Blue Key alumni and the deposit
of a $500 bond at partial maturity.
The total monies received in 1954
($1,641.84) were deposited with
the University bursar u n d er
Agency Funds, Student Loans
and Scholarships. At this time,
the administration of the scholar­ship
was placed in the hands of
the proper University officials,
with the responsibility of proces.
sing applications being placed in
a selection committee staffed by
the Dean of Student Affairs, the
Head of the English Department,
a professor of journalism, and the
president of Blue Key.
New income has been deposited
with the bursar since 1954 in the
amount of $681.75, while awards
to six students have totaled $958.
No awards were made in the
years 1957, 1962 and 1963 due to
no applications being received.
ODK cannot comment on the
circumstances pertinent to the
years 1957 and 1962, but in view
of the implications set forth in the
editor's column pertaining to 1963,
the following comments are con­sidered
justified:
Upon the absorption of Blue
Key in the Fall Quarter of 1962,
the officers and members of ODK
agreed to sustain many of the
worthwhile projects of Blue Key.
Among these welcomed respon­sibilities
was the maintenance of
the Bruce Greenhill Scholarship
which was understood to be a
direct payment from the Blue
Key treasury. In other words,
ODK members agreed to devote
their time and energies to the
sponsorship of an activity or pro­duction
which would provide re­venues
for this memorial award.
As the editor knows, ODK also
absorbed a more than diminutive
indebtedness pursuant to the
merger last Fall, (sic) ODK felt
that its immediate responsibility
was to clear said indebtedness,
and all expenditures were cur­tailed
except those applied toward
the debt.
Two weeks ago, the officers of
ODK were informed that the
scholarship was payable by the
University and not directly from
the organization's treasury. Al­though
saddened that no student
had taken advantage of the scho­larship
in the current school year,
we felt that the source of infor­mation
on scholarships as pub­lished
in the University Bulletin
and in the Tiger Cub should have
proved sufficient to lead any in­terested
students, including the
editor, to the office of Student
Financial Aid. i
It is the opinion of the writer
that if the editor chooses to at­tend
ODK meetings as a reporter,
he should at least be a responsible
reporter. To misquote statements
relevant to the organization's af­fairs
and then to compound the
effrontery by conjecturing with
incomplete information at his dis­posal
represents irresponsibility
not becoming to a "recognized
student leader," much less a jour_
nalist.
Yours for a better Auburn,
Jud Lyon, President
Omega Circle,
Omicron Delta Kappa
Some people surely have their
share of troubles, don't they? It
seems someone is always picking
on them. Now ifs poor, defense­less
ODK. Shame on the editor—
tsk, tsk, tsk! He should know
better than to tell the truth, (or
what he sincerely believes to be
the truth). Why should he know
better? Because he knows it won't
be very palatable in the mouths
of the BMOC's. And we don't
want to hurt the feelings of the
BMOC's, for heaven's sake. It's
hard enough trying to keep things
rolling when they're in a good
humor.
Now to the more important task
of answering this letter.
(1) Omicron Delta Kappa, per
se, does not feel that some "fac­tual
comment" is in order. Per­haps
some of the membership
feels the same way, while others
know that the facts, as they were
presented, were reported with
good judgement. Other ODK
members were not asked lohat
they thought. We recognize the
fact that an organization presi­dent
has the power to speak for
his group, but we feel that his
statements should be qualified.
(2) In Mr. Lyon's second para­graph,
he states that the fund
"would be applied toward helping
meet the expense of tuition fees
for a worthy student in journal­ism."
He also implies, later in
the letter, that the editor himself
might have been interested in the
scholarship. It is inconceivable to
believe that any student would
not be interested in any means
of financially assisting his edu­cation.
However, Mr. Lyon should
realize that the editor is NOT a
"student in journalism,," and ac­cording
to his statement the edi­tor
is not eligible for the scholar­ship.
(3) The editor of this paper
still contends that Mr. Lyon did
make mention of an "obscure"
account that had been located and
would enable ODK to offer the
scholarship once again. He further
contends that, in the fall quarter,
when Blue Key was absorbed by
ODK, the president announced
that the Bruce Greenhill Scho­larship
could not be offered due
to insufficient funds. We have au­thoritative
reports that approxi­mately
$1,000 is, and' has been, in
the bank all along.
The thing we did not realize
was that the money was in a gen.
eral fund handled by the office
of Financial Aid. If any adverse
reflection has been brought upon
this department, we apologize. We
do not apologize to ODK, or its
president, for printing factual,
responsible information.
(4) The editor does choose to
continue to attend ODK meetings
and to continue to turn out re­ports
concerning the business of
this organization which are of
concern to the student body.—Ed.

Auburn Mayor
Writes Open Letter
Editor, The Plainsman,
For sometime I have felt that
it would be desirable to write an
open letter to the students at­tending
Auburn University. After
reading a recent letter to the Edi­tor
from Mr. Killian, it is my be­lief
that my letter might contri­bute
to better community under­standing.
We, who are concerned not on­ly
with, the business communit,
but.also the activities of the city
government are always interested
to know what the students in the
.University are thinking. We want
to know what they think about
the local merchants, about the lo-
• cal governmental services, and
about the various types of con­tributions
in terms of time, mon­ey,
and effort which the students
make to the local community.
We are very much aware that
the business activity in Auburn is
generated to a large extent by the
University and the student body.
It is also true that many taxes are
paid by the students of the Uni­versity
through their purchases of
tangible goods and amusements,
and in some cases, through the
ownership of property. We hope
that in most cases, full value is
received by the students whether
expenditures are made for taxes,
f6r tangible goods/ for amuse­ments,
or for contributors to fund
drives or churches. We want the
students of the University to be a
part of the Auburn community,
just as we hope to be a small part
of Auburn University.
As members of the community,
it is necessary for the students to
bear a portion of the cost of local
government through payment of
taxes. Also, we ask the students
to contribute to the Community
Chest through the All-Campus
Fund Drive. In return, we want
to provide all of the members of
this community with good police
protection and good fire protec­tion.
We want to light the streets
and provide park areas. Through
our Community Chest we want to
provide for those persons who
need our help. We want to em­ploy
hundreds of students in the
various businesses and pay them
a reasonable salary, and we want
to provide all of the goods and
services that make for desirable
living here in Auburn.
Most of all we want to always
try to develop and maintain a
warm and friendly relationship
between the student body and the
permanent residents of the com­munity.

Auburn Students To Be Interrogated
In Upcoming Accreditation Investigation
By Bert Hitchcock
Student Body President
The implications of accredita­tion
for an institution of higher
learning are very broad and far-reaching
indeed. Through an eval­uation
committee of the Southern
Association of Colleges and Sec­ondary
Schools, prominent and
qualified edu­cators
will take
a n intensive,
objective look
at this complex
we call Auburn
University.
They will
leave no stone
unturned; ev­ery
formal ele­ment
on this
campus will be
studied — departments, schools
auxiliary units, student govern­ment,
student groups,, etc. As a
result of these studies and eval­uations,
Auburn will or will not
receive accreditation; through the
work of this committee, it will be
decided whether this university is
cabable of meeting its great re­sponsibility
of higher education.
Such a process is 'invaluable for
a school to clearly and objectively
view its assets, to note weaknesses
and shortcomings, and thus to
make plans for future develop­ment.
Any type of study group,
and especially the self-study unit,
has become lately the object of
nescient ridicule. Advancement
and improvement does not come
as a result of a confused wander­ing,
an unoriented roaming in an
u n k n o w n environment. One
should not only know where he
is going but also how and why he
is going there. To "Know Thy­self"
is counsel that will be of ul­timate
validity as long as the hu­man
being is involved in any way.
For a number of years, the
Southern Association of Colleges
and Secondary Schools used pure­ly
quantitative means as the basis
for their determination of accred­itation
status. Several years ago,
Auburn played a large part in the
adoption of a new accreditation
procedure in which the qualita­tive
element as well as the quani-tative
is an important considera­tion.
No longer is information
handled impersonally through the
mail; committees now make visits
to the campus itself. For a period
of time they want to be right in
the midst of the educational pro­cess,
the environment of college
which students see and feel each
day.
Many new considerations were,
of course, brought to the forefront,
with the adoption of a qualitative
basis. By far one of the most im­portant
of these is the elevated
role that the student is called up­on
to play. So often every ele­ment
of education is investigated
in minute detail using every pos­sible
means except the student
who is so closely and constantly
subjected to it. In different ways
all of us react to educational sti­muli.
We like a certain class; we
are bored to death in another. We
figure out why we are willing to
work in a particular course and
expound upon the weaknesses of
a certain department. Depending
upon our own seriousness about
education and our own motives
for being at school, the opinions
and views of students can often
be of great value and bring to
light many important facts.
For these reasons, members of
an evaluation committee have a
special interest in the student bo­dy.
They reflect the type of per­son
who is attracted to school at
the institution. The frank, candid
remarks which they can pick up
from students gives them valuable
insight into the educational sit­uation
and processes. There is no
artificiality, no added frosting on
a perhaps rotten cake. From the'
very objects of education come
their reactions. Students are not
all experts in educational philoso­phy
and methods, but we do
k n o w how we are affected. \We
have ideas about changes and
possible improvements. An eval­uation
committee in talking at
random with students on campus'
gathers many facts which can
reach profitable fruitition in the
years to come.
It is one way in which we can
leave some visible mark in a bet­ter
future.
not seen a good joke in "the"
Plainsman for quite some time
now, this being my third year on
the plains. The first year the
Plainsman had quite a few jokes,
including a column called "Lam­pooning."
The next year the jokes
were fewer and farther between
and the "Lampooning" was gone.
This year, there have been no
jokes.
I have been here three years,
and in that time the jokes have
disappeared from the Plainsman.
This might prove something, but
I don't know what. I seriously
doubt-if it does.
So, Mr. Editor, how about it?
Is the Plainsman anti-humor?
You might say that you cannot
find any jokes around, but the
Auburn Engineer seems to find
enough. Perhaps the editor of
that publication could trade you a
few extra jokes for some extra
editorials on compulsory class
attendance.
Donald M. Bogue
Since Mr. Bogue is listed as
having no declared major in the
student directory, maybe he
would like to major in humor
and come to work for the Plains­man.
We have very little time to
wander about the campus looking
through engineering publications
(there must be a half-dozen by
now) for little bits of off-color
humor. We are a news medium,
with the responsibility of inform­ing
the campus.—Ed.

Bynum Discusses Impact Of Science
In Engineers' Week Keynote Address
"It is the. engineers' responsibility to keep us militarily
prepared but he must also create new products and new in­dustry
to employ our expanding population."
Dr. William Bynum, president of Carrier Corp., Syracuse,
N.Y., reminded his profession of this charge in his keynote
address at Auburn University
during Engineers' Week.
In keeping with the national
theme, "America's E n g i n e e r s
Build for the Future," Dr. Bynum
discussed the impact of scientific
and engineering advancements on
our econmic, social and political
lives. For example, he noted his
own firm, "born from an engi­neer's
idea, was' almost non-ex­istent
30 years ago. Today, it em.
ploys over 33,000: people."
Taking a few minutes to review
some of the more significant
breakthroughs, Dr. Bynum point­ed
out that the development of
the steam engine changed the
whole structure of society. Manu­facturing
centers sprang up, and
with them came the need for la­bor
laws and trade unions.
"With the advent of the gaso­line
engine, 50 per cent fewer
farmers were" able to feed twice
as many people.
"Alternating current and the
induction motor brought labor
saving devices into the home, thus
giving women more time. Today,
women account for one-third of
the total labor force.
In 1930, when Dr. Bynum r e ­ceived
his electrical engineering
degree from Auburn, refrigera­tors
in the home ;and coast-to-coast
radio were just coming in.
the vacuum tube was just being
perfected, and there were virt­ually
no air-conditioners in Ala­bama.
1963 is the era of the deep­freeze,
Telstar and the transistor,
and air conditioning is a neces­sity.

Meditations
Did You Know...
Football, basketball and baseball are considered by many people
to be the big spectator sports and have many followers,, but if you
ever see the crowd at Daytona you will believe that automobile
racing is the second largest spectator sport. Horse racing is the only
sport that leads the automobiles, and has a good chance of dropping
behind which all the totals come in from last year.
Automobile racing spectators are a very loyal type of people who
will let nothing stand in their way when it comes to seeing a big race.
Seventy-one' thousand of these people proved this Sunday as they all
sat in a tremendous rain for an hour and a half waiting to see the
race that some of them had traveled over 3,000 miles to see.
Most people only see the race itself or listen to it on the radio,
and thereby miss half of the thrills of this wonderful sport. I was
very fortunate in being able to get into the pits again this year and
watch both the track action and the excitement as the cars roll in to
get their gass and those all-important tires. At the pace and closeness
of the race this year, Tiny won through the efforts of his pit crew.
Win Some—Lose Some . . .
Tiny's crew did a wonderful job and brought joy in abundance
to this big man from Cross, South Carolina. When asked how he felt
about winning Tiny replied "I'm so damn happy I could cry," which
was not too hard to figure out. Tiny has, in recent years, had more
than his share of bad luck and really deserved what he got.
There were a few happy people in the pits, but there were a lot
more that weren't so joyful. Among these sad people was the man
who is always figured to capture the "Most Likely to Blow Up" title.
Yes, for the fourth time in five years good old "Fireball" failed to
finish.
A Man To Be Proud Of . . .
Every racing fan has his favorite driver whom he hollers, screams
and yells for at every race. Some people get very disgusted with
their favorites and will pick a new one to root for about once a year
or maybe more often. I don't know how everybody felt about their
"boys," but I was as proud as could be of mine Sunday. Richard
Petty has been as good a favorite as anyone could ask for. He has
been a man who is liked and respected by both the crowds and driv­ers.
Last year Richard drove his big blue Plymouth to a very close
second in the Daytona "500," was second place in Grand National
points, was voted as the most favorite driver in NASCAR, and once
again drove a good "500" this year as he finished in sixth place (the
first non-Ford in the top ten).
Ford had already declared this year that the factory was going
all out for racing, and proved that they did. Things will definitely
have to change at Chrysler and General Motors, or Ford will prob­ably
not taste defeat in a major race this year. Three cheers for
changes.
Tigers And Tide Meet
In Coliseum Saturday
By BOB SNYDER
Plainsman Sports Writer
The Auburn Tigers close out the season against their arch
rival, the Alabama Crimson Tide, Saturday night on the
courts of the State Coliseum in Montgomery.
The Plainsman will be out to make it two in a row over
Bama. Auburn defeated the Tide earlier in the season 81-78
in a thrilling overtime contest.
The Tide will be out to get re­venge
for their earlier loss. Coach
Hayden Riley chargers will be led
by the two fine guards Hinton
Butler and Charles Perry. Juniors
James Booth and J. W. Berry will
undertake the duties of the for­ward
position.
The Tide also will receive help
from their on-coming sophomore
center Bob Andrews.
In the last game between these
two rivals Larry Cart poured
through the points in overtime to
spark the thrilling Auburn vic­tory
before the eyes of over 10,-
000 fans.
The game began and before Au­burn
could get underway the Tide
laced to a 16-9 lead. The Tigers
quickly recovered scoring 12
straight points to take the lead
which they never relinquished
until Butler's jump shot tied the
game with 38 seconds left in the
game. i
Alabama, was the first to score
in the five-minute overtime with
a 20-foot jump shot by Berry.
Cart retied the score with one of
his seemingly-easy push shots.
With only 20 seconds left in the
overtime, the score being 79-78
Auburn's favor, Cart had the ball
stolen from him by Bob Andrews
and he drove in for a free two-pointer,
but fortunately for Au­burn
he missed. Blackwell, with
just three seconds left made one
of his fast breakaways and hit the
layup to provide Auburn the final
81-78 victory.
Big Layton Johns was all over
the court pulling in 18 reWbuads
and scoring 27 points. John Black-well
with his breaking-away pow­ers,
tossed in 17 points.
Cart dropped in six of six free
throws, a 30-foot set shot, and a
layup in the overtime. He finished
the evening with a total of 22
points.
Coach Bill Lynn will probab­ly
start the regular five: L a r ry
Chapman and Larry Cart at
guard; Billy Tinker and John
Blackwell will be operating at
forward; and last but not least
big Layton Johns will be trying
to fulfill his duties at center.
On the bench Auburn has sound
a reserve which has turned into
a valuable asset. Freddie Guy, a
sophomore forward from Avon-dale,
Ga., will surely see action
this coming Saturday night.
This game should prove inter­esting.
Both teams have beaten
the same opposing foes by simi­lar
scores. However, it is a known
fact that Auburn could beat
Bama by a large margin.

HAIL TO THE DEAN!
Today let us examine that much maligned, widely misunder­stood,
grossly overworked, wholly dedicated campus figure—
the dean.
The dean (from the Latin Deanere—to expel) is not, as many
think, primarily a disciplinary officer. He is a counselor and
guide, a haven and refuge for the troubled student. The dean
(from the Greek Deowos—to skewer) is characterized chiefly by
sympathy, wisdom, patience, forbearance, and a fondness for
homely pleasures like community singing, farina, spelldowns,
and Marlboro Cigarettes. The dean (from the German Deange-m'acht—
to poop a party) is fond of Marlboros for the same
reason that all men\of good will are fond of Marlboros—because
Marlboro is an honest cigarette. Those good Marlboro tobaccos
are honestly good, honestly aged to the peak of perfection, hon­estly
blended for the best of all possible flavors. Marlboro
honestly comes in two different containers—a soft pack which
is honestly soft and a Flip-Top box which honestly flips. You
too will flip when next you try an honest Marlboro, which, one j
honestly hopes, will be soon.
*#if is wtclary eye in fflM
But I digress. We were learning how a dean helps poor,
troubled undergraduates. To illustrate, let us take a typical
case from the files of Dean S of the University of Y
(Oh, why be so mysterious? The dean's name is Sigafoos and
the University is Yutah.)
Wise, kindly Dean Sigafoos was visited one day by a fresh­man
named Walter Aguincourt who came to ask permission to
marry one Emma Blenheim, his dormitory laundress. To the
dean the marriage seemed ill-advised, for Walter was only 18
years old and Emma was 91. Walter agreed with the dean, but
said he felt obligated to go through with it because Emma had
invested her life savings in a transparent rainhood to protect
her from the mist at Niagara Falls, where they planned to spend
their honeymoon. If Walter called off the wedding, what use
would the poor woman possibly have for a rainhood in Yutah?
The wise, kindly dean pondered briefly and came up witli a
brilliant^answer: let Walter punch holes in the back of Emma's
steam iron. With steam billowing back at the old lady, she
would find a rainhood very useful—possibly even essential.
Whimpering with gratitude, Walter kissed the dean's Phi
Beta Kappa key and hastened away to follow his advice—and
the results, I am pleased to report, were madly successful!
Today Emma is a happy woman—singing lustily, wearing
her rainhood, eating soft-center chocolates, and ironing clothes
—twice as happy, to be candid, than if she hud married Walter
. . . And what of Walter? He is happy too. Freed from his un­wanted
liaison with Emma, he married a girl much nearer his
own age—Agnes Yucca, 72. Walter is now the proud father—
s/cpfather, to be perfectly accurate—of three fine, healthy
boys from Agncs's first marriage—Everett, 38; Wilhelm, 43;
and Irving, 55—and when Walter puts the hoys on a lead and
takes them for a stroll in the park on Sunday afternoon, you
may be sure there is not a dry eye in Yutah.
And Dean Sigafoos? He too is happy—happy to spend long,
tiring hours in his little office, giving counsel without stint and
without, complaint, doing his bit to set the young, uncertain
feet of his charges on the path to a brighter tomorrow.

Ice Cold Tigers Lose To Tennessee Vols
By GEORGE GARDNER
Assistant Sports Editor
The flu-bitten Auburn Tigers, taking to the chilly weather
of Knpxville like penguins take to the heat of the desert, lost
a heart-breaking game to the Volunteers of Tennessee last
Monday night on the home court of the Vols.
The contest was, to say the least, one of the most unusual
played by the Plainsmen in sev­eral
years. Although the final
score was 55-47 in favor of Ten­nessee,
the count at halftime was
an almost unbelievable 19-11
tally, with the Vols on the long
end.
Auburn trotted onto the floor
of Tennessee Armory and was
met with one of the most well-executed
ball control type of at­tacks
in the SEC. The halftime
score of 19-11 was indicative of
the action on the court . . . slow,
very slow! The Vols grabbed the
opening toss and promptly pro­ceeded
to make the count 8-2.
With their deliberate dribbling
and conservative shooting, the
tall men in the orange jerseys
controlled possession of the ball
for almost the entire first half.
In the meantime, the Plainsmen
reacted as if they had never even
heard of this type offense, much
less faced it before. With only
seven minutes left in the first
half, the Tigers tiad yet to break
into the double, figure column and
were behind by the margin of 7-
15. A few minutes later, with only

As Cotton Nash Goes Wild Again With 28 Big Points
THE ABOVE PICTURE shows some of the rough action that
took place in the Auburn-Kentucky game last Saturday night.
The loss left the Tigers in bad shape for the NCAA playoff bid,
since Georgia Tech has not las any more games. In the game Sat­urday
night Cotton Nash came through for the Wildcats as he
scored 28 points from all over the court. This was the first good
night that Nash has had in a long time,-and it seems that he
picked the wrong night to get 'hot.
By REGGIE GILBERT
' Plainsman' Sports Writer
Kentucky's Wildcats defeated
the Auburn Tigers 78-59 Saturday
night in what could prove to be
the loss that will prevent Auburn
from representing the SEC in the
NCAA tournament.
Cotton Nash, a name that makes
Auburnites shutter, led Kentuc­ky
with a performance that
equaled his one-man show in Au­burn
last year, as he scored 28
points and hauled down 14 re­bounds.
Auburn has never beaten Ken­tucky
at Lexington and the Wild­cats
were determined not to al­ter
that fact as the Tigers never
led, although the score was tied
three times early in the game. It
looked as if it would be a close
game until Nash got hot and
scored 18 points- in the first half.
With Nash hitting from all over
the court, Kentucky pulled away
and Auburn was never in the
game again, even though they
pulled within three points when
the Wildcats stalled at 23-20.
However, the stumbling Tigers
could score only three points in.
the last six minutes of the first
half and at intermission were
down 36-25.
The second half was all Ken­tucky

contact which seemed to work in
their favor.
It has been said that Kentucky
and Nash have been playing poor­ly
this season, but against Auburn
Nash was a great all-American
and Kentucky was a strong bas­ketball
team. Auburn did not play
the best game of the season, how­ever.
The Tigers were unable to
use their fast break, with which
they have busted many games
wide open. They were not able to
operate the shuffle successfully,
either.
The Tigers hit on only 42.6 per
cent of their field goals, while
Kentucky hit 47.8 per cent of their
shots. Nash was the high point
man in the game with 28. Deeken
finished with 17, and Roberts had
13.
For Auburn Cart came on
strong in the second half to sack
16 points. Johns played a great
game as he scored 15 points and
gathered in 14 rebounds. Tinker
was the only other Tiger to hit in
double figures as he hit 13.
Although the clock and scorer
failed during the first period of
play, the first half of slow motion
action came to a halt with the
Tigers down by 8 points at 11-19.
The Plainsmen refused to call a
time-out to reorganize their for­ces
in the half, • but the halftime
field goal shooting percentage of
28.6 indicated clearly that some­thing
was wrong. Blackwell was
the leading scorer for both teams
at the half with a then-big total
of 8. Neither squad missed a free
throw in the first half.
When the two teams returned
from their intermission briefing,
the roar of the 5,100 fans that
packed into the arena indicated
that regardless of the low score,
the Vols were leading the nation­ally
ranked invader's from the
plains. As the action once more
commenced, the Vols continued to
have complete control of the sit­uation.
Although the scoring be­came
somewhat more frequent,
the fouls began to be called
against Auburn with dreadful re­gularity
as the Tigers fought to
gain possession of the ball. With
only 9:30 minutes to be played in
the game the fumbling Plains­men
pulled the score to within
five points at 24-29.
At this point, however, the Vols
began to play with renewed fury
and managed to run the count up
to 42-28, their largest lead of the
night. The Tigers were not to be
outdone, as little Larry Chapman
played an inspired second half.
Although he managed to get only
two points in the first period,
Chapman tossed in 15 to lead the
second-half charge that fell short.
The Volunteers, who hit on 53.3
per cent of their field goal at­tempts
in the first half, were led
in the second half by Danny
Schultz. He contributed 22 big
points in. the second half to wind
up as high man for the game with
28.
The Tigers out^shot the Vols
from the field -by 18-14 field
goals, but the game was actually
lost at the foul line. The visiting
Plainsmen committed 22 fouls,
which the Vols turned into 27
big points, whereas they were
only called for personal fouls
themselves on 10 occasions. Tink­er
and Blackwell fouled out in
the process of attempting to steal
the ball from the smoothly-oper­ating
Vols.
Larry Chapman, who must cer­tainly
have played one of his most
inspired ball games, led the Ti­ger
scoring with. 17 points. Black-well
contributed 13,- but the other
starters gained only 15 among
them.
The Tennessee charge w;as led
by Schultz with 28, and A. W.
Davis with 16.

The story of a classic
7
1063
In many ways the story of the Thunderbird is one of
the most unusual in the automobile business. The
whole idea of the car was born at one of the great
European automobile shows. The then president of
our company pointed to some of the small, lush sports
cars that are always a center, of attention at such
shows and asked his companion, "Why can't we build
something like these?"
The companion, who later became a vice president
of the company, said, "It just so happens I have one
on the boards. I'll show it to you when we get back to
Detroit." Then as fast as he could discreetly get to a
transatlantic telephone he called his assistant and told
him, "Remember that car we've been talking about?
Finish those sketches on it."
The Thunderbird became one of the few cars ever
built that was produced essentially as the original
sketches presented it. Most cars undergo countless
changes in the design period. But there was a natural
clarity and cleanness to the Thunderbird design that
immediately captured all of us at Ford.
It was probably this clean, sharp look that won so
many friends so fast when the car went into produc­tion.
That first Thunderbird had its drawbacks. For
example, it was too soft-sprung for true sports-car
handling. But, the truth is, it was not designed in the
European tradition of the fast performance car. Some
people called it a sports car but we never did. We
called it a "personal" car; a small, fairly luxurious car
that was fun to look at and fun to drive. It had its
own integrity: it was one alone.
We built the Thunderbird as a bellwether car for
Ford. It was our intention to test new ideas before
we put them into our Fords, Fairlanes and Falcons.
The new Ford ride and Swing-Away steering wheel
appeared first on the Thunderbird, for instance. How­ever,
we never foresaw the extraordinary influence
Thunderbird would have on the whole automobile
business here and abroad. Almost everybody offers
the Thunderbird bucket seats these days. And the
Thunderbird look is the most decisive styling of the'60s. j
The Thunderbird is a classic, made so by a peculiar
blend of magic ingredients of which we would love
to know the secret. We're building cars right now we
hope will become classics, but the truth is, we don't
make classics, we make cars. People make the car a
classic. And that's the story of the Thunderbird.
America's liveliest,
most care-free cars!
