Scientists Study Graduate Program;
Engineering Facilities Toured by Visitors
AUBURN COED SUELLEN ROBINSON has been announced
as the campus queen candidate in the new edition of Syort Magazine.
The magazine features five candidates monthly before voting
is held by the subscribers and readers of the magazine. Sport
has a nationwide reading audience throughout the United States
and Canada. ,
Auburrf- University's graduate
program was under study Friday
by Huntsville scientists who
toured engineering facilities and
were briefed on new programs
and procedures to be inaugurated
with the opening of the new physical
science center here next
fall.
The group, members of the
Joint Graduate Study Steering
Committee of the United States
Army Missile Command, Marshall
Space Flight Center, and
industrialists of the Huntsville
Community, w e r e accompanied
by Dr. Rudolph Hermann, director
of the Research Institute of
the University of Alabama.
Joseph Fisher, executive secretary
of the committee, said more
and more graduate work is needed
to keep abreast of new systems,
environments and developments.
"We are finding more technical
problems as we run into new
areas of research," said Fisher.
Emphasis during the morning
briefing session, led by Auburn
University faculty members, centered
on chemistry, physics,
mathematics, computer c e n t er
and nuclear science center graduate
programs now under way at
Auburn as well as those to be instituted.
Auburn University ranks 16th
in the nation in the number of
graduates' continuing studies toward
doctorates a f t e r receiving
BS or MS degrees from here, Dr.
Howard Carr, head of the physics
department, told the group. A doctoral
program is offered at Auburn
University for the first time
this year.
Capacity for graduate training
will be doubled or tripled with
completion of the new physical
science center, Carr pointed out.
The new structure will provide
no classroom space for the physics
department, Carr noted, but
will have 12,000 square feet devoted
to advanced physics.
Neutron radiation and atomic
molecular studies are planned for
the future in the physics department
as well as an extension of
the department's present program,
Carr told the Huntsville
visitors.
Dr. Theo H. Ellis, director of
Auburn University's computer
laboratory, told the group that
while contract work here is
growing, long term plans include
commercial data processing and
a scientific section.
Dr. Ernest Ikenberry, research
professor of mathematics, pointed
out that Auburn University
now has 65 graduate students in
mathematics. Recently added to
the curiculum in that field is a
special functions course, he noted.

a nuclear. science center at Auburn
University was presented by
R. E. Wingard, research professor
of chemical engineering.
The group w a s welcomed to
the campus by Dr. Ralph B.
Draughon, president. Following
the briefing session and a luncheon,
the visitors were conducted
on a tour of the School of Engineering.
Political Party Forms,
Senate Studies Action
Senate President Specifies Balance
As Key To Any Legislative Action
By HARRY WILKINSON
Managing Editor
A new political party has been formed on the Auburn
campus in action taken last Wednesday night. The fledgling
organization is to be called the University Party and will
constitute the third political organization on the campus.
Sigma Nu, Pi Kappa Alpha and Kappa Sigma are the three
groups forming the new party at
this time. The purpose of the new
organization is related to be one
of desire to attain political balance
and stability on the Auburn
campus. Balance will necessitate
the adition of new members to
the University Party. At present
there has been no organizational
meeting of the new party members.
Information on other organizations
joining the party will be
forthcoming at that time. As of
now, there is no official spokesman
for the new group.
There has been some speculation
that the group's action has
ben taken to avert the possibility

Guidance Service
Changes Program
To Benetit Students
The Student Counseling Service
has undergone various changes in
name, staff, and program during
the past .summer.
This service, formerly called the
Student Guidance Service, employs
a full time staff of eight
members. It includes Dr. Chester
H. Russell, director of the Student
Counseling Service, four
counselors, one psychometrist in
charge of administering individual
tests, one secretary, and one receptionist-
typist.
The new counseling program,
revised under the direction of Dr.
Russell, provides personal, educational,
and vocational counseling.
These special areas in counseling
aid students by confidential
discussion of personal problems,
provide help with academic
difficulties, and assist students in
making a self-appraisal in relation
to vocational choice.
Several different counseling
procedures are used. A student
may have a private interview with
any counselor of his choice. Tests
and inventories are sometimes
used in order to enable the counselor
to better understand the
student's problems. There is also
an occupational reading room
available for the student who
wishes to broaden his field of
knowledge of certain occupations.
Another of the methods employed
is a referral to additional services
which may be helpful, such as a
reading improvement course, the
Financial Aids Office, or the local1
clinical psychologist.
All of these procedures are
aimed at helping the student to
better understand himself and to
better make his vocational decisions.
of mandatory reapportionment
action by the Student Senate.
Jim Kilpatrick, Vice-president
of the Study Body and Presiding
Officer of the Senate, reported in
a late interview that the Senate
committees formed to study the
campus political organizations
will continue to meet and make
their forthcoming recommendations
to the legislative body. Formation
of the new political party
will likely be considered at the
committee's next meeting.
The committees are presently
studying the present and average
past membership of fraternities
and sororities for voting capacity,
an analysis of their past and present
leadership and honorary
positions, an analysis of their past
Student Body, publication, IFC,
Union and other positions, and an
analysis of their participation in
student affairs. A relative study
of the potential and political future
of each organization is also
being considered.
In a former release, Kilpatrick
stated, "An effort will be made
to completely balance the parties.
It should be noted that the Senate
is the logical starting place
for any such action. The Senate
is the free forum of student affairs.
It appears definite that the
Senate has the judicial power to
instrument political reorganization
for the betterment of the
student body.
"There certainly may be other
solutions to the political problem,
but until those solutions are
found, the Senate is still the logical
place for action. The Senate
is an open-minded body and will
certainly give due consideration
to any suggestion or possible
solution to Political reorganization
outside of Senate action, if

Cwens Delegates
Attend Convention
Cwens, the sophomore women's
honorary ,is to hold its national
convention next week in Mead-ville,
Pennsylvania. The Auburn
chapter is sending two Of its officers,
Bertha Dozier and S a l ly
Quillian, to the national conclave.
Auburn delegates are to proceed
to Meadville by air on October
4. Miss Dozier, local chapter
president, will serve on an early
nomination committee for the selection
of national officers. Regular
meetings are to commence
Friday with delegates present
from Cwens chapters throughout
the nation.
The sophomore women's honorary
has additional sex-vice responsibilities.
Squires Honorary Announces Members
As Service Program Set For Year
Twelve of this year's sopoho-mores
were tapped for Squires
last spring quarter. Membership
in this group constitutes the highest
honor a sophomore can can
attain at Auburn.
The officers for this year's club
are: Doug Van Zandt, president;
Tom Shuford, vice president; Gi-rault
Jones, secretary; Richard
Krause, treasurer. Other members
are: Bob Reed, Tom Harmon, Tucker
Frederickson, Pete Goodrich,
David Norris, Toney Sweeney,
Bernard Chestnut and Ray Bean.
Squires is a service honorary
consisting of as many as 15 men
students selected from the freshman
class-by Omicron Delta Kappa
to serve during their sophomore
year. Their objective is to
provide service for all other hon-oraries
and service organizations
during the year.
Selection is based on exemplary
o.r promising leadership demonstrated
during the freshman year
in all fields of campus activity.
Students selected must also be
third quarter freshmen and show
scholastic excellence.
Activities of Squires include
"Hey Day" which will be held the
Thursday before Homecoming this
quarter, and the Miss Village Fair
contest. They also usher for lectures
and concerts and assist with
IFC rush, orientation week and
convocations. In addition Squires
work with their companion women's
honorary, Cwens.'
Squires was organized in 1941.
Their faculty advisor is Dean
James E. Foy.
Final Enrollment
Tops 9000 Mark
Final registration figures for
the fall quarter will approximate
9,000. This figure is lower by some
500 students than the expected
number. This recession, as explained
by Registrar Charles Edwards,
is due to a tightening of
entrance requirements and. smaller
high school graduation classes
this year than last.
There is a shortage in freshman
students this year with only
1527 enrolled, whereas last year
there were 1966.
One reason for the smaller high
school graduating classes is that
a legislative act changed the elementary
admission age from 5Vz
to six 12 or 13 years ago. '
Many students failed to meet
the three prior enrollment deadlines
for all physical examination
reports, previous school records,
and admission applications to be
filed in the Office of the Registrar.
The five per cent drop of graduation
seniors reflects back to the
age requirements set upon this
class for entering grammar school.
The American College Test was
required for admission for the
first time this year. This test eliminated
in advance those students
who might find college work too
difficult.
The ACT test was formerly
used as a criteria for admission.
Scores on this test will still be

Senate Reorganizes
Religious Committe
The Student Body Law for the
Establishment of a Religious Activities,
body has been amended by
the Student Senate to give representation
to all student religious
groups.
At their meeting on October 25,
the The Senate unanimously
agreed to revise Section 2, Paragraph
3 of the above law which

Recent Student Affairs Survey Shows
Foreign Language Study Helps Grades
By JAMES SIMS
Plainsman Feature Writer
Do students who take foreign languages in high school
achieve more in college? James E. Foy, Dean of Student Affairs,
believes so. In his words, "Students who have had
more t h a n one year of foreign language in high school stand
a better chance of success in college." Mr. Foy is well supported
by statistics. I Affairs office recently completed

Attention, Mothers!
Do You Care About Your Child's Feet?
"Self-Starter" shoes (from start to six) are the
finest infant and walker shoes in America. No other
brand of shoes will give your child comparable appearance,
flexibility and wear.
Bring your child to Feinberg's to try a pair on,
and you will be convinced—as are all mothers who
use Self-Starters for their little ones.
For The School Child — boys and girls — we
strongly recommend "Lazy Bones"—the most talked-about
brand of girls' and boys' shoes on the market.
Lazy Bones will give your child a better f i t , better appearance
and longer wear than any brand your child
has ever worn. Lazy Bones are made by the Clinic
Shoe manufacturers, who also make the largest-selling
line of nurses' shoes in America.
Mothers, Shop Feinberg's for all your children's
shoe needs. We have more than 30 years' experience

foreign languages in high school
with those students who had not.
I.B.M. cards on each of 1,743
freshmen entering the Summer
and Fall quarters of 1959 were
punched with information from
the* students' high school records
along with college grades up
through the Fall quarter of 1960.
The data gathered were then
transferred to charts and diagrams
for study.
The results clearly indicated
that students with more than one
year of high school language experience
did do better with college
level work than those who
had no such background. In English,
students with more than one
year of a foreign language made
three times as many A'S by per
centages, than their counterparts
with no language. More surprising,
however, is the fact that this
group also made two-and-one-half-
times as many A's in chemistry
and math. According to the
laws of probability, the odds
against this group of students doing
this well strictly by chance
are three hundred to one.
On first glance, several possible
explanations appear for the fact
that those students with more
than one year of a foreign language
succeeded in college more
often. To begin with, foreign languages
are offered only at the
larger high schools. These schools
generally provide better college
preparation in all areas of study.
Secondly, students who take foreign
languages are usually in the
top portions of their classes scho-lastically.
Further study of the available
data, however, reveals that the
above factors may not be as important
as might be otherwise
expected. The study also demonstrated
that even the poorer students—
those in the lower quarter
of their respective high school
classes—did better in college if
they had had more than one year
of a foreign language. This information
suggests another explanation
for the success of these students
at Auburn. That is, that the

Pony Club Has Taken Many Prizes
Wife Of Vet Professor Heads Team
By HUNTER SMITH
Plainsman F e a t u r e Writer
Nineteen years before Auburn's 1957 football team became
national champions, this University had another undefeated
team—a polo team. "That was back when the
ROTC was a mounted outfit," adds Dr. F r e d G. Schell, Head
Professor of Large Animal Surgery and Medicine at Auburn,
After their move to Auburn,
Mrs. Schell, a qualified dressage
judge of the American Horse
who was himself a member of
that 1938 team. "Equitation was
compulsory for all military men,
so most of the men at Auburn
could ride. Our polo team played
mainly the military teams in this
area—the 'Horse Guards' of the
Atlanta National Guard Unit, the
regimental army officers at Ft.
Benning, New Orleans, Maxwell
Field, and Pensacola. We also
made a circuit of the collegiate
teams at Ohio State, the Univer-sit
yof Illinois, the University of
Missouri, Culver and Iowa State."
Dr. Schell's wife, Cynthia, has
a success story of her own. A
graduate of Penn State in animal
husbandry, she is a pioneer
of the Pony Clubs of America in
the Southeastern United States.
Beginning in middle Tennessee,
where her husband practiced vet
medicine for 15 years after his
graduation from API in 1941, she
coached a pony team which

Delta Omicron Chapter
Called Top InlProgress
By DIANE MOON
The Auburn University chapter of Delta Omicron, international
music fraternity for women, was the recipient of
t h e organization's Chapter Progress Award at the 1962
Triennial Conference. This award is given annually to the
chapter which has exhibited continual effort for chapter improvement.
The success story of
Delta Phi, the local chapter, is
worthy of note.
Delta Omicron came to Auburn
in 1954. Since that time, growth
has been sporadic. At one point,
active membership consisted ' of
one girl. Mrs. Joyce Hankenson,
then chapter advisor, was instrumental
in reorganizing and building
up the chapter.
The local chapter now has 18
active members. Mrs. Vernon
Lapp is chapter advisor, and
Professor 'Hubert Liverman, head
of the University Music Department,
is chapter patron. Plans
are being made to initiate other
outstanding townspeople as patrons
and patronesses, and new
student pledges will be taken in
January.
The chapter m e e t s twice
monthly. One is a business meeting;
the other is a music program.
The chapter presents a musicale
in the spring, when an outstanding
senior member is awarded a
cup for excellence in campus-wide
and Delta Omicron activities,
and in scholarship.
Members serve as ushers at
departmental programs and as

pony club in Columbus,
Georgia, in 1955, at the Midland
Foxhound Stables. In 1960 a five-member
team of this club won
the Regional Rally at Columbus
and finally the Pony Club National
Rally in Long Island, N.Y.
This was a modified three-day
competition including dressage,
cross-country trials, arena jumping,
knowledge of ponies and
stable management.
While in college, Mrs. Schell
was a member of the livestock
judging team and won the collegiate
individual judging division
of the International Horse
Show in Kansas City.
On their Wire Road farm in
Auburn, Dr. and Mrs. Schell,
with their chilren, Tim, Frank
and Cynthia exercise their fine
hunters and jumpers on a set-up
course. Such an involvement in
the horse world would be impossible
for this extremely active
family without a sincere desire
for competition and a deep understanding
and love of nature's
most beautiful animal.

honored at the 1962 Conference
include the Firestone Corporation,
Texaco Oil Company, Mrs.
John F. Kennedy, and Miss Eleanor
Steber, the Metropolitan Opera
star scheduled to appear in
Auburn on October 8. Miss Steber
is an alumna of Delta Omicron,
having been invited as a patroness
in 1943.
Other famous alumnae and patrons
of Delta Omicron include
such personalities as opera singer
Renata Tebaldi, pianists Ruth
Sleczynska and Elisabeth Schwarzkopf,
W a l t Disney and
Henry Ford.
Purposes of the fraternity include
the furthering of fellowship
in music, the encouragement
of scholarship and quality in performance,
and the provision of
material aid to worthy students.
Delta Omicron uses as its motto:
"Continually striving, we serve."

WHAT TO WEAR TILL THE DOCTOR COMES
Now that you have enrolled and paid your fees and bought
your books and found your way around campus and learned to
hate your roommate, it is time to turn to the most important
aspect of college life. I refer, of course, to clothes.
What does Dame Fashion decree for the coming school year?
; (Incidentally, Dame Fashion is not, as many people believe, a
fictitious character. She was a real Englishwoman who lived in
Elizabethan times and, indeed, England is forever in her debt.
During the invasion of the Spanish Armada, Dame Fashion-not
yet a Dame but a mere, unlettered country lass named
Moll Flanders—during the invasion, I say, of the Spanish
Armada, this dauntless girl stood on the white cliffs of Dover
and turned the tide of battle by rallying the drooping morale of
the British fleet with this stirring poem of her own composition:
Don't be gutless,
Men of Britain.
, Swing- your cutlass,
We ain't quittin'.
Smash the Spanish,
Sink their boats,
Make 'em vanish, •
Like a horse makes oats.
For Good Queen Bess,
Dear sirs, you gotta
Make a mess
Of that Armada.
You won't fail!
Knock 'em flat!
Then we'll drink ale
And stuff like that.
Wi£iMs%&2.
\f 1699
As a reward for these inspirational verses Queen Elizabeth
dubbed her a Dame, made her Poet Laureate, and gave her
the Western Hemisphere except Duluth. But this was not the
extent of Dame Fashion's service to Queen and country. In
1589 she invented the laying hen, and she was awarded a lifetime
pass to Chavez Ravine. But she was not to end her days
in glory. In 1591, alas, she was arrested for overtime jousting
and imprisoned for thirty years in a butt of malmsey. This later
became known as Guy Fawkes Day.)
But I digress. Let us get back to campus fashions. Certain to
be the rage again this year is the cardigan (which, curiously
enough, was named after Lord Cardigan, who commanded the
English fleet against the Spanish Armada. The sweater is only
one product of this remarkable Briton's imagination. He also
invented the glottal stop, the gerund, and the eyelid, without
which winking, as we know it today, would not be possible).
But I digress. The cardigan, I say, will be back, which is, I
believe, cause for rejoicing. Why? Because the cardigan has
nice big pockets in which to carry your Marlboro Cigarettes—
and that, good friends, is ample reason for celebration as all of
you will agree who have enjoyed Marlboro's fine, comfortable,
mellow flavor and Marlboro's filter. So why don't you slip into
your cardigan and hie yourself to your tobacconist for some
good Marlboros? They come in soft pack or flip-top box. Cardigans
come in pink for girls and blue for boys. © "62 Mai shuimm
Cardigans or pullovers—it's a matter of taste . . . And so is
Marlboro a matter of taste—the best taste that can possibly
be achieved by experienced growers and blenders—by science,
diligence, and tender loving care. Try a pack.

Plainsman Policy
With this, the third issue of The Plainsman,
we feel it our responsibility to make
a statement of policy to be followed by this
newspaper.
It is our opinion, as we have emphatically
stated time and again, that the purpose
of The Plainsman is two-fold. First
and perhaps foremost, it should serve the
students of this University as an accurate
news medium. In doing this, it must also be
in service to the University as a source of
public information and public relations.
It is our intent to publicize, criticize, and
editorialize on items which are of interest
on this campus.
The Plainsman is a statement of opinions
and happenings to the total campus. It is
not, and will not be, ruled by any one person
or faction of this campus.
Were this the case, the paper would soon
become a frame unnatural to a student
body such as Auburn. This student body
is not of one mind but rather a combination
of many ideals and opinions.
Auburn is a proving ground for men
and women who have shown a willingness
to assert themselves and a belief that they
possess the ability to take their proper
and rightful place in a modern world—a
world which requires a superior standard
of knowledge in order to properly discharge
one's duties as a leader in our dynamic
sdciety.
Student opinions and ideas are presented
here in the form of personal editorial
page columns. Others may be expressed
by means of "letters to the editor."
We must emphasize that journalistic
ethics require that we print all letters that
are written in good taste and signed by
authentic students, faculty and alumni.
Any libelous or licentious matter will be
considered in bad taste and, of course, will
not be printed. Letters must be typewritten,
double spaced and signed.
The printing of a letter to the editor does
not in any sense imply that The Plainsman
is in agreement with the statement therein.
It should be understood that the letters
are opinions of individuals—not of the administration,
the editor, or the editorial
staff.
We will be in compliance with a decree
set down by the board of trustees last year
which requires the dean of student affairs
to review any editorial copy that might "be
detrimental to the good name of Auburn
University."
We do not consider this to be censorship.
Rather it is the case of a publisher having
the final say as to editorial policy of his
newspaper.
This is the second year this policy has
been in effect. This year we will abide by
it.
In stating our editorial policy here, we
are, in effect, repeating our campaign platform
of. last spring, This is as it should be
—this is as it will be. ,
Opportunities For All
Many pamphlets, circulars, and magazines
cross our desk within the bounds of
a week, and quite frankly some of them
aren't read as closely as they should be.
One, however, that did make us do a
double take after we had thumbed through
it, was the special fall issue of the Mag-Net.
This is the official publication of the Magnolia
Dormitory Student Government. This
particular issue is designed to acquaint the
incoming freshman males with the workings
of the University.
Of 45 articles written in this publication,
there wasn't a word about student government
or the other forms of student activities
usually connected with the student
body.
This is a newsletter primarily dealing
out information about Magnolia Dormitories,
but when book stores, banks, etc.,
merit separate stories, we fail to understand
why the student body organization
is given no mention.
Can we really blame the unsuspecting
freshman independent for not entering into
the work of committees, publications,
and student government work when he
doesn't even know what's going on?
We think the Mag-Net could do a great
service to all the residents of Magnolia
Dormitories by including some form of introductory
sketch of all facets of campus
activity. We believe this would help to alleviate
some of the student disconcern that
is mentioned repeatedly on this campus.

Gigantic Spy System Unveiled In United States
As Diplomatic Immunity Stages Espionage Escapade
By Richard Lane
Commendations are probably due, and
commendations are scant where Auburn
Spirit is concerned. We are losing a ball
game . . . the stands were quiet. Where the
Plainsmen found the gutz to turn the tables
is a mystery . . . the stands were quiet.
An under-rated team won, and throughout
the last three quarters they had the
support of this student body. Individuals
and groups cheered, jumped, hollered, and
cried. No doubt was left; an excellent job
had been done.
Earlier in the week a vivacious group,
Spirit, had done their tasks. The cheerleaders
and the band planned hard, worked
hard in order to complete their assignments
of molding a spirited campus.
A kind individual was interested enough
to donate ribbons to all affiliated with the
University; in order that these might be
evidenced in classes and hallways. Probably
a half-dozen were.
Everyone did his job. Small jobs, large
ones . . . they add up. They did last week,
last year, the year before, they will next
week—and year.
Everyone did his job even if it was being
cynical of the activity going on around.
He looked pretty foolish; he was the iconoclast,
for most of those around him were
caught up in that glorious tumult that we
have referred to as Auburn Spirit.
We mentioned laudations. They are due.
Be laudated Spirit Committee. Be laudated
cheerleaders. Be laudated members of that
select group who saw fit to wear their
Orange and Blue ribbons while among the
bare-chested ones. Be laudated Auburn Tigers
for the spirit which you held while the
support was lacking.
Lastly, be laudated student who has determined
to be behind his beliefs in victory
and defeat. You won't be any happier than
anyone else, but you've done your part.—
Williams.
Hanging In The Balance
It is with mixed emotions that we meet
the impending formation of a new political
party on this campus. Senate study on the
matter was encouraging, for reorganization
is certainly needed. The War Eagle
Party is doomed under present circumstances.
The All Campus Party holds all
the 'spoils of war'.
One certainly cannot deny the endeavor
of the new party leaders to seek political
balance on an individual basis without having
it thrown at them in compulsory fashion
by the Senate. It is hoped that the Senate
committees will watch closely the organization
of the new group. If evident balance
is not forthcoming as speculated, Senate
reapportionment of the parties could
and should still result. The basic right to
align by choice hangs in the balance. We
hope new party leaders will bear this
thought in mind.—Wilkinson.
Behind the smiles of suave
Communist diplomats, the cultural
exchange proposals, the appeals
for peaceful coexistence,
disarmament negotiations, and
free trade lies a simple truth.
That these smiles and appealing
words are merely a facade behind
which operate the deadly tentacles
of an octopus that has already
consumed millions upon
millions of human beings. Communist
espionage, the worlds'
largest spy network, is the deadly
means which is rarely exposed
to us.
The threat to our security and
to the free world is obvious for
us to see when subverted by a
well organized and trained operation.
For example: the secrets
obtained for the Soviet Union
bv a few disloyal Western atomic
scientist and spies such as the
Rosenbergs. Klaus Fuchs, and Allan
Nunn May aided the Russians
tremendously in the field of nuclear
science.
The Soviets' spy network operates
largely under diplomatic
immunity in the United States.
This has been going on since
1933. J. Edgar Hoover, Masters of
Deceit: "In 1933 diplomatic recognition
was afforded the Soviet
Union. Now trained espionage a-gents,
operating under diplomatic
immunity, could direct operations.
After World War II, Russians
assigned to the United
Nations in this country gave additional
striking power to Soviet
espionage. Moreover, assistance
was possible through the espionage
networks of Soviet satellite
countries operating in the United
States."
Just recently a part of this net.
work was uncovered. A spy was
exposed in the UN. Perhaps you
read the details several weeks
ago on the front page of a Birmingham
newspaper or an even
more recent example can be
found on the front page of this
Sunday's paper. However, this
only provides a glimpse of the
whole picture. Until we are able
to see more of the picture we
cannot begin to recognize the
gravity of the situation.
J. Edgar Hoover reported late
in January that the FBI had 84
wiretaps operating strictly in defense
of the "internal security of
the country." All were approved
by the Attorney General in advance
and in writing. This means
that at least 84 important Soviet
agents were operating in crucial
areas in the U. S. Mr. Hoover
and his counter-intelligence a-gents
have evidence that "some
70 to 80 per cent of the Soviet
officials in the United States
have some type of intelligence
assignment." Soviet officials not
only include those from the USSR
but from all of the satellite countries.
Moscow maintains an "advisor"
system at satellite country headquarters
and they have access to
all data obtained by the so called
peoples' democracies. There is
positive evidence to the fact that
these agents of the Kremlin did
scour the U.S. during 1961. For
example, Soviet officials made
more than 14 intelligence and reconnaissance
trips across t he
United States. They visited areas
of strategic significance and noted
military installations. They
mapped industrial facilities and
collected maps, photos, and other
detailed data on power plants,
transportation systems missile
bases and space shooting gallery
operations.
They have attempted to infiltrate
our most crucial intelligence
and counter-intelligence organizations,
the secret headquarters
controlling codes, the latest
scientific developments in electronics,
jet and missile fuel, and
the atomic energy fields. Indust
ry is also a prime target for
their espionage apparatus. The
Amtorg Trading Corp., for example,
represents 25 Soviet trade
organizations behind the iron
curtain. Despite Mr. Hoover's
outright charge that Amtorg is
part of the Communist international
industrial spy network, it
operates freely out of 355 Lexington
Ave., New York City.
How do they do it? By using
men whose Americanese is good.
Amtorg has been able to buy and
ship electronic equipment which
is absolutely restricted to domestic
consumption. The Amtorg people
place orders with small dis-
. tributors who in turn buy from
highly guarded and classified
electronic producers.
A situation such as the above
makes me very indignant, especially
when we hear shrill cries
from Moscow concerning our U-2
flights. In reality, the Amtorg
Corp. and their agents are hiding
behind our free enterprise system.
Their diplomatic colleagues
are hiding behind their cloak of
immunity. They and their hundreds
of anonymous undercover a-gents
vastly outnumber our entire
batch of U-2 pilots.
Nothing has been done about
the Amtorg Corp. for nearly 33
years. Nothing has been done
about the problem of diplomatic
immunity for 29 years. Only
when an aroused public asks for
it will the situation be corrected.
But, how can they ask for it if
they have never heard of it!
Letter To The Editor . . .
Paper Should Regard Outside Interests;
Reader Questions Useless Controversy
Editor, The Plainsman
To foster the Auburn Spirit,
whatever that may be, is the expressed
purpose of our, or rather
their, weekly publication. It is
not the free voice of the student
body. It is not, as stated in Mr.
Dixon's editorial column last
week, a "seedbed for useless controversy."
I only wonder -at the
criteria utilized in defining "useless
controversy," in deciding
what will be printed and what
won't,
Debating an issue that neither
God, the state legislature, nor the
Superintendent of Spirit could
possibly solve or settle might be
called "useless controversy." In
such a case no working solution
can ever be reached regardless.'
But what about bringing to the
attention of a group of people,
not immediately in a position to
do anything about it, a situation
or problem that needs adjustment?
Notice I said not immediately
in a position, for I am
speaking of the college student,
supposedly the future leader in
society on both the local and national
level. Making him, the student,
aware of problems, whether
involving solely his university or
having other implications, is this
"useless controversy?" Allowing
him to form his own opinions on
matters other than the possibilities
of winning next week's football
game, is this beyond the "effective
scope" of a college newspaper?
It can be argued that the student
has no real part in the administration
of the school, he
cannot participate in the policymaking
decisions of the university,
he contributes prescious
(sic) little and has negligible influence
on those who do appropriate
funds needed for the school's
operation; therefore anything
printed in the school publication
pertaining to issues outside the
• student's immediate sphere of influence
is merely fostering "useless
controversy." It would be
better for him to ignore it. No
possible good for either the student
or the school can come from
the public expression of his opinions
on such a subject.
But if one realizes, or at least
assumes, that the college student
will one day occupy a position
of some influence in his community,
then the' practical validity
of the above argument seems
questionable. That today's student
might in the near future be
in a position to deal effectively
with such problems seems reason
enough for fostering an early a-wareness
of them. As a good
many people know, one of the
best ways of handling a problem,
particularly an institutional problem,
is to ignore it. Pretty soon
it becomes part of our institutional
tradition; and then we can
be proud of it. But ignorance and
false pride are neither goals nor
proper ingredients of spirit in
any university.
I deliberately refrain from using
as an example any particular
issue for fear of being accused
of simply trying to create "useless
controversy." Truthfully, I
am not writing this in reference
to any cine issue. I refer only to
the editorial assistant's column
concerning editorial policy that
appeared in last week's Plainsman;
and I question that policy.
I believe the 'Plainsman can do
more than wave the orange and
blue pennant. Foster the "Auburn
Spirit" if it must, but it can also
foster the enlightenment and
awareness of the Auburn Student.

The Switchboard . . .
Academic And Activity Stress Studied;
Apathy Is The Road Leading Nowhere
By Bert Hitchcock
Student Body President
"To go or not to go" was the
self-imposed auestion of many as
the Auburn Tigers met Tennessee
in the season's opener in Birmingham.
The excitement, the
pride, the togetherness of another
football season would be initiated
Saturday at Legion Field, and yet
there was much work to be done
at home. Schoolwork should certainly
take precedence, but all
education is not to be found in
textbooks. Such a trip might be
just the remedy one needs for
relief of the everyday pressures
which so rapidly build up, and
yet, on the other hand, it could
be detrimental and harmful in
many respects. To each had to
come his own decision.
To every individual there comes
in life many questions which with
each person again his own answers
and decisions must result.
It is essentially a matter of the
placing of values; what is important
and what is not? What will
be more beneficial, more rewarding
in the end?
Apathy is a word I first heard
at a SUSGA conference in Florida
two years ago. Numerous representatives
spoke of the indifference
of their students toward
student government, its functions,
and its activities. The problem is
a very real one to all student
body officers, and yet many times
I find myself wondering, unsure
about just who is placing their
values in the right place. The
doubts are manifold, the uncertainty
searching and penetrating. '
"Is it worth it?" is the recurring
introspective query which comes
to many student government officers.
There is much concern
about apathy, but many of us
who voice concern should readily
see why one does not wish to be
too involved in campus politics.
Here again is the individual decision,
the placing of values by
one person in relationship to his
own feelings and experiences.
The new school year is a little
over a week old! academic work
is already falling heavily on most
shoulders. The elements of time
and human endurance prevent too
numerous and too arduous activities.
Extra-curricular respojpsibi}-
lities take a large cut inte a;stu>-
dent's time and capacities, and
thus the dilemma is manifested.
It is indeed difficult to put too
much emphasis on academic endeavors,
the development of the
intellect; that is why we are at
Auburn, or others are at other
colleges and universities. The
tendency to devote m-aot.irally all
to this end is fairly widespread
and understandably so. But with
such concentration in one area,
indifference, apathy if you will,
must inevitably result in another.
The supreme value has been
placed on study; student government
and extra-curricular activities
follow in lesser ranks.
Seeing both sides is not difficult.
On one hand is the "campus
wheel" w h o s e studies suffer
greatly f r o m other activities
which come first in his life. On
the other hand is the "bookworm"
whose cloistered existence
keeps him void of the many real
experienced lessons of life. Somewhere
in the middle of these extremes
lies the "Golden Mean,"
the correct and prooer emphasis
on both in the right times and
places, but the golden mean is-not '
an easy achievement.
An additional and greater
problem exists, for these are not
the only two sides to the story.
What is to happen to a third
group—those who are . apathetic
about everything really meaningful?
How are they to be made
to realize the real values of study
and learning or of worthwhile
extra-curricular activities? This
kind of apathy is the one which
hurts not only the individual but
the whole student body of which
he is a nonfunctional part. It is
a grave matter of no little concern.
There are questions, doubts,
uncertainties every day for Student
Body officers. "Is my time
being spent in the right way?" "Is
it all worth it?" "What's the use?"
"What must come first?" I don't
know that we will ever reach a
decision which will ward off all
future personal queries, but the
fact that we're still here does
show what is at least predominant
in our minds most of the time.
We hope and believe that we can
render some good, that in some
way we can be of real service to
our fellow students in a quest for
education. Apathy is a formidable
foe which the student body as a
whole must face, but not without
first visiting deeply its elected
officers.
Individual Thinking . . . ,
Student Self-Analysis Recommended
To Answer Questions Of Campus Life
By Ronnie Wynn
With every passing year an increasing
number of freshmen enter
Auburn University. These
freshmen are from many different
sized towns. Their backgrounds
range from one extreme
to the other. Regardless of this
previous life, each of them will
face the same three questions
while at Auburn: what is my
purpose; am I an individual; and
what is right or wrong.
Whether you realize it or not,
every action you take has a' purpose
behind it. You sleep and eat
to survive. You go to a movie or
have a date for the purpose of
pleasure and recreation. You attend
church to worship. Yet
these are e v e r y d a y actions.
Freshmen,. what is your purpose
for coming to Auburn University?
Upperclassmen, why did you enroll
at Auburn two or three years
ago? It should be to further educate
yourself so that when you
leave Auburn you will be more
able to support yourself and your
family in future life. People say
you learn wisdom in college. If
you learn enough to realize your
smallness, then you have found
wisdom. Keep the following
thought in mind. There are only
two things that can give you success
in college or anywhere else:
ability and motivation. If you
didn't have ability, you would not
be here in the first place. The
thought of lifting your standards
of life should be sufficient motivation.
The high schools from which
each of you come range in size
from 150 to 1000. Even in the
largest schools a student could be
a personality. In coming to Auburn,
he enters a school with an
enrollment of nearly 10,000 people.
It is almost impossible for
a person to be known as an entity
in himself rather than be associated
with a group. Don't get
me wrong, I believe that every
student on the campus should belong
to some group or organization
because they provide the
only possible answer to organization.
Rather, I mean a person can
be so absorbed into a small group
that he begins to think as a group
and not as an individual. By all
means, belong to the various
groups and organizations. They
can be very helpful to you. But
remember that you are an individual
with a purpose for being
in this world—don't lose yourself
in the crowd.
Early in your lives, most of
you were taught some principles
of human conduct. In those first
years you perceived right from
wrong as soon as you could understand
it was impolite to eat
food with your fingers. Right and
wrong were as easily distinguished
as black from white. During
your years irr Auburn you will
find this changed. Here you will
find many varying shades of
gray. There are two reasons for
this. One, the temptations are
greater, and secondly, you are
free of your parents' apron
strings. I am certainly not the
one to tell you what is right or
wrong. Be the judge of this yourself.
When in doubt, stop and
think.
Each of you will face these
three questions while you are a
student at Auburn. Your solution
will certainly determine t he
course of your future life.

Auburn's Religious History Outlined
As Dr. Deloney Addresses Civic Group
Dr. John E. Deloney told Auburn
Lions Club Tuesday that
Auburn University began as a
church-supported institution and
that religion always had played
an important role in the life of
the campus.
Deloney, coordinator of Learning
Resources Center and chairman
of the AU Committee on Religious
Life, gave the concluding
program in a series on "The
Church."
Reading from a paper on religion
on the Auburn campus in
the period 1872-1955, by Charles
W. Edwards, Deloney said':
"From its earliest days, Auburn
University h a s been concerned
about moral and religious instruction
of its students. Under the
heading 'Religion and Moral Culture,'
the catalog of 1872 declared:
'Religious services are
held every morning in the chapel.
The students are required to attend
these exercises and are expected
to attend the church of
their choice at. least once each
Sunday. Opportunities a r e also
afforded for attending Bible
classes every Sunday'."
The religious l i f e committee
has expressed its view of its
proper function in the following
statement. "We believe that the
college has a genuine responsibility
for the character development
of its students during the
vital formative years they spend
here. We believe the college has
an obligation and the freedom to
encourage among its students the
growth of a vital religious faith
and to provide an intellectual basis
for teaching.

midshipmen into the aviation and
amphibious phases of the Navy.
Its secondary purpose was to give
the men a chance to demonstrate
and exercise their leadership abilities.
The aviation phase took place
at the Naval Air Station, Corpus
Christi, Texas, from June 17 to
July 10. The midshipmen heard
lectures on the theory of flight
and received instruction in piloting
three airdraft—F9F Couger
Jet Trainer, T34 single-engine,
propeller-driven craft and the
S2F "Tracker," two engine patrol
plane. In addition, they participated
in an extensive physical
program consisting of athletics
and military drill. Auburn's platoon
won first place in athletics
and second place in drill competition
with midshipmen from 24
other colleges and universities.
Auburn's First Class Midshipman
Jim Cook was named Midshipman
Battalion Commander
for a special sunset parade for
the Secretary of the Navy. Second
Class Midshipman Jim Hall, from
Auburn, received the award for
highest aptitude in his company
which included Auburn, Dartmouth
and Yale. Allen Fulmer,
an Auburn Second Class midshipman
set a course record for
the Corpus C h r i s t i obstacle
course. A higher, percentage of
Auburn midshipmen qualified
with the pistol than any other
group.
After completing the aviation
phase, the group was flown from
Corpus Christi to the Naval Amphibious
Base at Little Creek,
Virginia. For the next three
weeks they attended lectures on
the theory of amphibious warfare
and participated in field
exercises with a Marine Battalion
from Cherry Point, North Carolina.
Auburn's Second Class Midshipman
Dan Holsenbeck was
chosen as one of six men on the
Battalion council from t h e 800
midshipmen representing some
34 colleges and universities across
the nation. Holsenbeck also received
the award for highest aptitude
in his company.

Political speculators are contending
that the new party action
will lead to the dissolution of the
War Eagle party as it now stands.
According to these sources, a balanced
two-party campus political
organization consisting of the new
University Party and the current
All-Campus Party will be the end
result. It is further contended
that the Seriate committees will
watch closely the activities of the
new organization to determine
whether or not the desired political
balance has been attained.
The current action on the part
of new party elements and the
Senate is being taken with all
due expediency in the face of upcoming

There Is No Joy In Knoxville-
The mightly Volunteer has struck out, and in doing so it found
out that no substitute has yet been found that can overcome a strong
force known as the will to win. The last three quarters proved to be
very disheartening on the Vol side of the field as they watched a
fourteen point lead diminish into a one point defeat. Losing the game
was hard enough on them, but a blow which probably hurt as much
was finding out that their "Wonder Boy," Mallon Faircloth, gained a
total of four yards in twenty-five carries.
For the second straight year Auburn has laughed off the old saying
that "you don't make mistakes against Tennessee and win," because
they made mistakes—and a lot of them—but they won. By
making mistakes they learned what not to do anymore, and in winning
learned that experience isn't everything. We are expecting to
see very few mistakes and a lot of winning for the next nine weeks.
A Bright Note In Pennsylvania—
While listening to the radio Sunday, I heard something that really
made me feel good inside. Probably very few of you know it, but
Slippery Rock State College won it's second straight game of the season
Saturday as it beat Edinboro by a score of 10-7. In their season
opener the Rock easily slipped past Delaware State and came out on
the top end of a 21-12 score. The 1386 students up in Slippery Rock,
Pennsylvania, have a team to be proud of this year, and I'm hoping,
just as they are that there will be eight more victories for them before
the season ends.
National Recognition For Auburn—
Many National and Conference honors were earned by the Tigers
when the statistics were compiled on Monday. The Tigers lead
the nation in overall defense in the NCAA ratings of 119 college teams
by allowing only 86 yards to be gained by Tennessee. Auburn is also
in second place in rushing defense right behind Ohio State. Coach
Jordan was picked by The Atlanta Journal as the Coach of the Week,
and Jimmy Burson's 74-yard punt return was judged as the Play of
the Week. Jon Kilgore's 42.7 yard punting average is now riding in
eighth place nationally. Overall, this has been a very good week for
the hard-hitting Plainsmen.
I was just informed a little while ago that Bobby Hunt, last
year's starting quarterback, is doing a good job with the Dallas Cowboys
of the American Football League. The Cowboys are now leading
the league with a 3-0 record this season. Bobby, who is the left safety,
has now intercepted two passes.
Break Out The Shotguns—
With the touches of chilly weather starting to move in it brings
to mind not only football, but it is this time of .year when many a
man's mind wanders to the out of doors. With only a few weeks left
until deer season begins, and dove season already open in many areas,
it is not too early to be thinking about getting prepared for the popular
sport of hunting. Many of the farmers throughout the country will
start their preparations as they bring out the paintbuckets and write
COW on Old Bossie's side. And put up large no trespassing signs. Let's
all try to use our heads and be sure of what we are shooting at, because
there are 14,999,999 other people out there also, and there is a
great shortage of taxidermists that can do a good job on a human
head.

Case
Plainsmen Prepare To Battle Tucky
Invade Wildcat Den
For Saturday's Tilt
By GEORGE GARDNER
Assistant Sports Editor
The Auburn Tigers head for
Bluegrass country this weekend
to meet the hardnosed Wildcats
of the University of Kentucky.
The Tigers, fresh from their terrific
win over Tennessee, will
meet the Wildcats in Stoll Field
this Saturday at 2 p.m.
The Kentucky team, winless in
their first two starts, will be trying
to duplicate their 1961 upset
win over Auburn. The Wildcats,
in their first season under new
head coach Charlie Bradshaw,
have failed to produce a score
in their games against Florida
State and Ole Miss. This is not
however, indicative of the type
football this team is capable of
playing. This will probably be
the best conditioned team that
the Tigers will play this year.
This point can be illustrated by
the fact that some of the players
on the squad have played over 45
minutes in the previous contests.
Although the Wildcat team has
been cut down to only 31 men, all
of these players are dedicated
advocates of hardnosed, rough
and tumble type football. They
are led by quarterback Jerry
Woolum, a candidate for best
passer in the SEC, and glue-fingered
Tom Hutchinson, one of the
best pass receivers in the league.
The line is anchored by two
good tackles, Herschel Turner and
Junior Hawthorne. The whole
front line has been fast and hard-charging
thus far. Fullback Perky
Bryant is considered the best runner
in the balanced attack the
Wildcats have been using against
opposition. Hutchinson shares his
pass receiving chores with left
halfback Darrell Cox, who was
injured in the Mississippi game
Saturday, and is a doubtful starter
for the Auburn encounter. Cox
is a fine runner, as well as one
of the best pass receiving backs
in the conference.
Although the Wildcats have
used a somewhat balanced attack
thus far, they are expected to
pass the ball much more against
the Tigers. With excellent receivers
in both the backfield and
end corps, Woolum will have
ample targets for his passes.
This team is described as being
very similar to Alabama on both
offense and defense, since Coach
Bradshaw was tutored by Paul
Bryant.
The Auburn Tigers have their
work cut out for them this week.
They will work primarily on their
pass defense, surely to be tested
by the accurate Woolum, and
their offensive timing, which
seemed to be a little off in the
Tennessee game. Also the Plains-

men will probably speed up their
passing attack, since the Kentucky
l i n e charges the passer
much faster than the Vols. Apparently
the Tigers emerged from
the Tennessee game without any
major injuries, possibly due to the
excellent physical condition of
the squad.
Saturday's game will be the
eleventh meeting between these
two teams, with Auburn holding
six wins. Since 1955, meeting in
successive years, the Wildcats
have managed to squeeze out only
one victory. During that span,
Auburn held the Kentucky team
scoreless for four straight seasons.
.
Last season the Wildcats finished
with a 5-5 slate, and it appears
that they will have to improve
considerably to better that
record.

Gross Is Expected
To Harass Cats
By GERRY HODGES
Plainsman Sports Writer
A familiar figure on the Plainsman
gridiron is big number 75—
George Gross. At 6'2" and 250
pounds, George carries on the
tradition of tough Auburn tackles
of the past. Having played a lot
of football for the Tigers during
the past two years, George today
holds down the number one right
tackle slot, and there is no doubt
in anyone's mind that he has
earned it. •
Ever since his high school days
in New Jersey, Gross has been
known as a tremendous all
around athlete. Besides being the
fine football player that he is,
George is one of the outstanding
heavyweight wrestlers in the nation
and undoubtedly the finest
in the South, having won the
Southeastern championship last
year. It is on the wrestling mats
w h e r e George's extraordinary
strength becomes so apparent, as
he simply overpowers his opponents
in the heavyweight division.
Not only is George a fine athlete,
he also has a fine record
as a student. George's extracurricular
activities speak for themselves,
as evidenced by his membership
in ODK.
This year it appears that a
great deal of the success of the
Tiger line depends on all the
abilities of George Gross, for this
is definitely a young Auburn
squad and supposedly a rebuilding
year. Players with experience
and abiilty must show the sophomores
the way, and George is one
of these football veterans who
leads Tiger line.
If you were to question any
Plainsmen coach about George
Gross, every one of them undoubtedly
would tell you Gross
should have a great season. One
particular play in the Tennessee
game seems to stand out above
the rest. It occurred in the second
quarter when Larry Laster went
right through a hole in the line
opened by Gross to score the go-ahead
touchdown from four yards
out.
This one play seems to bring

out exactly what Coach Jordan
thinks of this big tackle. The
head coach has said time and time
again that George Gross has the
size, speed, and ability to be the
best tackle ever to put on an
Auburn uniform. Judging from
Tiger football history, this is one
of. the highest compliments an
Auburn athlete could receive.

Tough Teams Tilt In Week's SEC Slate
By GEORGE JOHNSON
Plainsman Sports Writer
The Southeastern Conference enters its t h i r d week of the
season with eight games in the offering.
A u b u r n followed Coach Ralph Jordan's motto, "when the
going gets tough, the tough get going," and beat a highly
r a n k e d Tennessee team 22-21. Auburn used a strong passing
attack, coupled with a rock-ribbed
defense, both of which
will be needed during this week's
game with Kentucky. 'Tucky
is not regarded as a great offensive
threat, but due to Coach
C h a r l e y Bradshaw's hardnose
tactics, they are strong defensively.
Alabama is ranked number one
in the nation but has yet to play
a strong team. Alabama easily
posted a 44-6 victory over Tulane
last week, but Tulane is less than
a powerhouse. This week's game
against Vanderbilt should be another
easy victory for the Tide.
Billy Lothridge led Georgia
Tech over the University of Florida
last week in Gainesville.
Tech's big line showed no signs
of wearing out from Florida's
reputed depth. The Yellow Jackets
were still carrying the battle
to the Gators in the fourth quarter
when Florida made the only
threat after getting a fumble at
the Tech 32, but never got past
the 32. L.S.U., fresh from a 6-6
tie with Rice, will have to face
the strong Tech line this week in
Atlanta before national TV cameras.
The Bengal Tigers will be
ready to regain the ranking they
lost against Rice, and should give
Tech its first strong test of the
season.
Both Mississippi State and Tennessee
are looking for their first
win of the season. Tennessee was
picked as one of the top teams in
the SEC before last week's loss
to Auburn and intend to prove
that they were not overrated.
Miss. State is in what most call a
rebuilding year, and is not a
strong conference threat.
The Rebels of Ole Miss meet
Texas in Oxford. The Rebs are
annually a strong conference
team, but this year they haven't
We all make mistakes.
looked as impressive as in the
past.
Florida hopes to bounce back
after a loss to Georgia Tech with
a win over the Duke Blue Devils.
Duke defeated South Carolina
last week 21-8, after, a 14-7 loss
the week before to Southern California.
Florida has beaten Miss.
State in their only other game.
Georgia travels to Columbia to
meet South Carolina. Both teams
are weak this season, but appear
to be evenly matched. The Bulldogs
won their first 'game of the
season, after being defeated by
Alabama 35-0 in.the opener,, by
downing Vanderbilt 10-0. Another
weak team, Tulane, journeys
to Austin to play the University
of Texas.-
SEC teams have won three, lost
three and tied two against non
conference teams thus far this
season.

This week proved to be a very successful one for the team of Plainsman experts as the percentages
rose for everybody. Morgan proved to be the White Owl of the week after hitting a perfect
1000 in his predictions. Don Phillips will not be predicting with us any more after his lucky. 909
for the week, because we all booed and hissed at him for doing so well on his first try. George Gardner
is joining us this week, but we feel sure that he will not do as well as Phillips, since we changed
all his answers while he wasn't looking. If any of you want to match wits with use please turn your
predictions in to the Plainsman office before Saturday.

it by coming from two touchdowns

Dieted Auburn's great comeback
Saturday in a game played at Legion
Field in Birmingham, before
a near capacity crowd of 48,000
fans.
In 'the first quarter Auburn's
standout- punter, John Kilgc-re,
dropped: back to the 20 yard line
to attempt his second punt of the
game on a fourth down situation.
The snap sailed far over his head
and in the ensuing scramble for
the ball Tennessee guard Joe
Foxall finally claimed it in the
Tiger end zone for a quick touchdown.
George Shuford converted
and it was suddenly 7-0 with the
game less than six minutes old.
Shortly afterwards a pass in-terferance

Begin Minus Gross
By RICHARD PAYNE
Tiger wrestling practice is off
to a slow start this fall. Six of
last year's lettermen are eligible
this season, but.so far Jeff Mau-rer
is the only one to report to
Coach Swede Umbach.
George Gross and '61-'62 captain
Aubry Davis are no longer
eligible this year. Each has wrestled
his full four-.year term.
The team will be composed of
las,t year's second stringers and
boys up from the freshman squad.
Standouts in the early drills have
been Bob Factora, Mark Hyman,
Sal, Zarcone, and Henry Starnes.
Last year's squad vaulted to a
10-1 record, losing only to VPI
and added to the frosting to the
cake by winning the Southeastern
Intercollegiate Wrestling Championships
for the sixteenth consecutive
year-. . .
The Tigers begin their season
in the last few days of this quarter;
Umbach and .company lead
off with the Florida Gators in
what appears to be anoter fruitful
year;
Confucius say, sue day in fun,
To a friend and Number One Son,
"Witt my Swingltne I'll fuse
Your most honorable queues
Because two heads are better than one!"

first down at the Tiger eight. On
second down, Mallon Faireloth,
the highly touted Tennessee tailback,
passed straight down the
middle where Auburn's Jim Price
was standing and it appeared a
sure interception. H o w e v e r,
Wayne Waff stole it out of the air
for another Tennessee touchdown
and the apparent beginning of a
Vol rout. Shuford again converted.
That's when t:ie War Eagles
stalled to play on the same field.
There was just no stopping them
once the toe of Woodall split the
uprights on a 27-yard field goa!
With two minutes gone in the
second period to make the score
14-3.
A nearly perfect three quarters
was brought to a close by the
winning drive of Sidle-Rawson.
On fourth down from the Tennessee
one, dependable Larry Laster
crashed through. Calmly. Wood-all
booted it through the uprights
but the Tigers were guilty of a
personal foul. This time Woodall
was called on to perform'his ma?-
ic from the 25. He complied with
a kick which brought victory over
a soundly beaten Volunteer eleven.
