Revote To Decide
Chemistry Offices
By GEORGE McMILLAN
A revote to elect the presi­dent
and vice president of the
School of Chemistry will be
held Thursday, Nov. 14. The
student senate deemed the re­election
justifiable after inves­tigating
reports of poll officials
influencing voters at the polls
in the Oct. 31 election.
The motion, passed by the
senate Nov. 5, specified that the
candidates were' in ho way at
fault, but that some poll offi­cials
broke the election rule
which requires no campaigning
on the day of election.
Only students who voted in
the first election will be quali­fied
to vote in the Nov. 14 elec­tion.
The voting will take place
in the Commons Building from
8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. A period
of campaigning will not pre­cede
the reelection.
Candidates for president of
the School of Chemistry arc
Jack Kitchens (ACP) and Fred
Robneth (UP). Vice Presiden­tial
candidates are Dave Wor-ley
(ACP) and Sam DiPaola
(UP).
In the Oct. 31 election Kit­chens
received 86 votes and
Robnett received 79 votes.
Dave Worley had 126 votes and
Sam DiPaola had 39.
The race is expected to be
the largest ever run here ac­cording
to Chairman Doug
Hale.
Spike Shoe and the P.E.
Club will assist ODK in offic­iating
the event. ODK presi­dent
Bill Halliwell and Cyn­thia
Finch will lead the race
in a pathfinder car. Also as­sisting
in the race will be the
Auburn Police Department.
According to Race Chairman
Doug Hale, all freshmen are
expected to run unless they
have a doctor's excuse.
Trophies will be presented
at the FSU-Auburn football
game Nov. 23.
Cycle Operators
Causing Problem
Noise from motorcycles has
become an increasingly impor­tant
problem at Auburn ac­cording
to Chief Dawson of the
Auburn Security Office.
Noise from these machines
is disturbing classes and pe­destrians.
Defective mufflers
have not been the problem so
much as the manner in which
cyclists drive their machines,
Dawson said.
Excessive noise from vehi­cles
is prohibited in article
four of the Auburn traffic laws.
. This problem has been in­vestigated
by the Student Sen­ate
according to Aubrey Gar­rison,
superintendent of safety.
Dawson called for discretion
in the operating of cycles and
reminds students that tickets
will be issued if violations con­tinue.
"ONCE UPON A MATTRESS" opened last night as the Auburn Players' first produc­tion

Auburn Debaters
Attend Tourney
The Auburn Debate Team
continued a successful season
last week end at the Alabama
Noyice Debate Tournament at
Montevallo, according to De­bate
Coach Jim Kilpatrick. The
Alabama Tournament was the
third consecutive tournament
for the Auburn debaters.
Two of Auburn's four teams
compiled 4-1 records, winning
a total of eight rounds, and
losing only two. Of these two
teams, Jim Byrne and Joe
Smith debated the affirmative
side, and Bill Barnett and Lin­da
Kipper debated the negative
side of the proposition: "Re­solved
that Federal Govern­ment
should guarantee an op­portunity
of higher education
to all qualified high school
graduates."
Three of Auburn's eight de­baters
at the tournament, Jim
Bryne, Joe Smith, and Linda
Kipper scored in the upper
five per cent division based on
speaker points. Four of the Au­burn
debaters earned an excel­lent
rating or the upper ten
percent in speaker points.
The over-all record for the
tournament was 13-7, for a
65% win record. The tourna­ment
was strictly for novice or
beginning debaters. Other Au­burn
debaters attending includ­ed
Bill Barnett, Randy Hat­chet,
Jim Cunningham, a nd
Marcia Naugle.
Auburn has attended three
tournaments this quarter, de­bating
56 rounds of debate and
winning 35 debates. The. Au­burn
squad will travel to the
University of Georgia Nov. 22
for its next tournament. Plans
for the winter quarter include
the nationally famous Harvard
Invitational i n Cambridge,
Mass.; for varsity debaters.
Matters of policy will be de­cided
by the Board, and ad­ministrative
decisions will and
must remain the prerogative
of the President.
You have my assurance that,
no matter what the result of
the appeal may be, our first
concerns shall be for the nor­mal
educational purposes and
functions of Auburn Univer-gaged.
I know that I can count
that of the Auburn University
student body in these matters.
Most sincerely,
Ralph B. Draughon
President

parade will be held this
year, according to a statement
issued in the recent Better Re­lations

University Young Democrats Club
To Circulate Redistricting Petition
The A u b u r n University
Young Democrats have joined
the state wide drive of the
Alabama Young Democrats to
persuade Governor George C.
Wallace to call a special ses­sion
of the Legislature for the
purpose of redistricting the
State.
At their meeting of Nov. 4,
the Auburn Young Democrats
passed unanimously a resolu­tion
urging the Governor to
call a special session for re­districting
and to exert his
executive influence to see that
a redistricting plan is enact­ed.
It was pointed out in this
resolution that it is the duty
of the Alabama Legislature to
redraw Congressional district
lines in the event of a gain or
loss' in congressional represen­tation
for the State of Ala­bama
according to the Ala­bama
State Constitution.
Petitions urging the Gov­ernor
to call this special ses­sion
are now being circulated
over the campus to obtain as
many signatures as possible.

NEGRO'S SUIT
Franklin, the Negro whose
admittance has been ordered,
filed suit last Aug. 26 seeking
enrollment in Auburn's grad­uate
school. He is a native of
Talladega, now living in Mont­gomery.
I n a hearing following
Franklin's suit, college officials
testified that Franklin was not
admitted for graduate study be­cause
the school from which
he was graduated — Alabama
State College in Montgomery—
was not accredited by the
Southern Associations of Col­leges
and Schools.
JUDGE BLAMES STATE
U.S. District Judge Frank
Johnson, Jr., blamed the State
of Alabama for not providing
an accredited college for Ne­groes.
He prohibited school of­ficials
from denying admission
to "other qualified Negro ap­plicants"
as long as the State
of Alabama does not provide
accredited institutions for Ne­groes
for undergraduate work.
The judge's injunction re­strained
Dean W. V. Parker of
the Graduate School from "re­fusing
to enroll and admit
Franklin to the Graduate
School.
Parker and "his agents, ser­vants,
employees, successors in
office and those acting in con­sort
or participation with him"
were barred from failing and
refusing to consider, process,
and accept applications of other
qualified Negroes for admit­tance
solely because of race or
color of such applicants.
In a separate order, the judge
dismissed Registrar Charles E.
Edwards as a defendant.
History Professor Ivey spoke
to the Young Democrats on
"The Democratic Way of
Thinking" and urged them to
reject those who would offer
simple solutions to problems
which have no simple solution.
He urged young people to look
at things from an objective
point of view and not from an
emotional point of view.
Young Democrats President
Vernon Loyd, attacked Sen.
Goldwater's plan of selling
TVA as being typical of the
reactionary thinking of the
Arizona senator.
The next meeting of the
Young Democrats w i l l be
Monday, Nov. 18 at 7:30 p.m.
in Room 320 of the Union
Building.
Auburn Catalogs
Placed In Library
Copies of the current Univer­sity
catalog have been placed
in the university library for
use by students.
The move was- necessitated
due to the "near depletion of
catalogs on hand. Catalogs will
no longer be available in the
Registrar's Office.
Dr. Clyde H, Cantrell, direc­tor
of libraries, reports that
the catalogs will be available
at each of the service desks in
the library and in the Phar­macy-
Veterinary Medicine and
Architecture branch libraries.
Service desks in the main li­brary
where the bulletins will
be available are circulation,
humanities, science and tech­nology,
social science, reserves
and special collections. The
catalogs will be restricted to
use in the Library. Overnight
checkouts will not be allowed.

of debate and discussion
on pertinent topics of current
interest.
The resolution was the result
of the "great and pressing need
in the South . . . and in our
own institutions to stimulate
debate -and discussion on na­tional
and international topics."
It stated that since "our uni­versities
have found it difficult
to obtain speakers of promin­ence
and stature while work­ing
alone, . . . " a cooperative
effort on the part of both uni­versities
would help rectify the
present gap in securing out­standing
speakers and interest­ing
debate.
SENATE NEWS
Projects discussed at the
Student Senate meeting on
Monday night were demon­stration
procedures, a student
body poll to determine feel­ings
toward student govern­ment,
the revision of dead
week, and the revision of stu­dent
election laws.
Demonstration Procedures
Committee was set up by the
Senate in compliance with an
administrative request that a
policy and a chain of com­mand
concerning demonstra­tions
be established. The pol­icy
suggested by the commit­tee
stated that the Senate
would protect the student's
right to assembly, but that it
would also protect the right of
the individual to privacy and
protection.
A questionnaire is to be dis­tributed
during pre-registra-tion
to juniors and seniors to
determine their opinion of Au-of
Auburn student govern­ment.
The questions on the
polling sheet will concern
e 1 e c t i ons, reapportionment,
campus apathy and indiffer­ence,
and Student Body com­mittees.
The dead week committee
announced that it was now
working on a project which
calls for a one day lapse or
"dead period" preceding ex­aminations
eoch quarter, rath­er
than only during fall quar­ter.
In reviewing the election
laws, the election committee
reported that certain laws
need redefining. Among the
s u g g e s tions recommended
were that Miss Homecoming
candidates be made to comply
with the grade requirement of
a 1.00 overall average or a 1.5
average the preceding quar­ter.
It also announced that
SUSGA will be asked to poll
its member colleges and uni­versities
for suggestions about
election procedures.

Astronaut Anticipates Space Flight
In Conversation With 'Plainsman'
By LISA SANDERS
War Eagles have reportedly been heard in far corn­ers
of the globe, but now the possibility of their trans­mission
from outer space has become an intriguing
speculation!
Captain Clifton C. Williams, an Auburn graduate of
1954, has recently been chosen
he will be a part of the Apol­lo
moon shot project and the
Gemini program, which aims
at a two-man extended earth
orbit and earth-space link-up.
Qualifications for an astro­naut
are naturally rigorous
and include, in addition to
physical requirements and ex­tensive
technological and en­gineering
training, a minimum
of 1000 hours jet flight time
and preferably, test flight ex­perience.

and his excitement on
having been chosen to parti­cipate
in it.

degree from Auburn
and three years of flying ex­perience.
An NROTC student,
he chose Marine option his
sophomore year a n d upon
graduation received his com­mission
in the Marine Corps.
He first applied for the astro­naut
program two years ago
when the second group was
selected and then, after ac­quiring
further academic and
technical training, as well as
additional flying 'experience,
was chosen for the program in
mid-October.
At Auburn, the new astro­naut
was a member of Pi Tau
Sigma, and Tau Beta Pi, engi­neering
honoraries, and served
as vice president of the School
of Engineering his senior year.
Capt. Williams reported that
he is following Auburn's foot­ball
team with great interest,
an'd hopes to visit the campus
in two or three weeks. Having
kept up with the progress his
Alma Mater is making in the
way of expanded building, li­brary,
and science facilities, he
is especially eager to visit the
new physical science center.
He has not been on campus
since 1959.
Capt. Williams will com­mence
four months of inten­sive
academic training at the
NASA manned space flight
center, Houston, Tex., at the
first of the year.
"This training," the Marine
captain informed us, "is to
keep the astronauts w e ll
abreast of new developments
in space flight, and get them
prepared mentally and physi­cally
for the part they will
play in its evolution."
To our expression of pride
in his selection the astronaut
replied conscientiously, "This
is a team effort, involving the
co-operation of many people,
no one of which can be singled
out. We are all working to­gether
to further t h e space
program."
When queried on his marital
status (Capt. Williams is the
o n l y unmarried astronaut),
the stalwart Marine observed
that he "just hadn't found the
right girl."
Judging f r o m Capt. Wil-

"right girl" would really have

Food Production To Aid Her Country
By WALTER MASSEY
No Auburn student has followed the recent events
in Vietnam with greater interest than Kinh Nguyen, a
native of that strife-torn country. Miss Nguyen, a grad­uate
student in poultry science, also has trouble follow­ing
the political happenings in her country. She feels
that the revolt in her home-

land was inevitable but she
doesn't know whether it will
be good or bad for her people
as a whole.
Before she left Vietnam, just
over a year ago, she knew that
her people were being intimi­dated
under the Diem regime.
Her people were denied the
freedom to speak out against
their leaders. Those who de­fied
the government and spoke
out against the regime, if de­tected,
were thrown into jail
without a trial.
This t i g h t governmental
control also ruled the press.
Most newspapers were merely
propaganda sheets for the ad­ministration.
Now after the
revolt, Kinh feels that good
will come to her people only
if they are given the right to
vote and if the basic freedoms
are assured them.
According to Kinh, Vietnam
has many internal problems.
Perhaps the two mo s t vital
problems are food production
and lack of education among
her people. These two prob­lems
are closely linked. Be-

find it difficult to grow
enough food to feed their fam­ilies,
much less to provide
their children with an educa­tion.
Although attendance through
grammar school is compul­sory,
most Vietnamese chil­dren
have to drop out and
work after learning only the
essentials of reading and writ­ing.
Kinh plans to teach when
she returns to Vietnam. Since
her major is poultry science,
she will be able to help her
people learn more efficient
methods of food production.
She will also be helping her
people by serving as a teacher.
Presently, there is a serious
shortage of teachers in Viet­nam.
Kinh is grateful for the
United States' help in trying
to alleviate this problem. Un­der
the Agency for Interna­tional
Development, which is
supported by t h e United

to study in this country.
Kinh feels that Vietnamese j
students study very hard. This
is because of the fact that in
Vietnam there is so little room
in the colleges that, once given
t h e opportunity, a student
strives to make the most of it.

Where CARsighted People Go To Buy
By BERRY BENSON
Dr. Norman D. Davis, asso­ciate
professor of botany, has
been at Auburn since 1958.
Since coming to Auburn, Dr.
Davis has contributed much to
teaching and performing re­search
work in botany.
Dr. Davis spends about half
his time in research, but his
preference lies at the present
in teaching the classes he has in
botany 101 and 102.
Dr. Davis was born in San
Diego, Calif., but since his fa­ther's
career was the Navy, Dr.
Davis spent his boyhood in
many parts of the country, in­cluding
New Orleans, Norfolk,
and later, Hong Kong and the
Philippines. After military ser­vice,
he graduated from the
University of Georgia with a
B.S. in botany. He did graduate
work at Ohio State University,
where he completed his M.S.
and Ph.D. degrees in botany.
Before coming to Auburn, he
taught one year at the Univer­sity
of Georgia. Dr. Davis is
married and has a three-year
old daughter. His major inter­est
is the Auburn Lions Club.
Recently, Dr. Davis, along
with Dr. Donald E. Davis, has
been working on a book on
"Trees", which he hopes to
have published within a year.
Presently, the unfinished con­text
of the book is being tested
in Botany 101 classes to ac­count
for any further changes
that might be due.
In commenting on the pur­pose
of his book, Dr. Davis
says, 'When it is completed, we
hope it can be used as a field
manual for the study of trees
native to Alabama." The book
will include a glossary, plates,
and illustrations. Line draw­ings
will be used. More than
100 illustrations are to be add­ed
to the book before it is
published.
Dr. Davis is presently engag­ed
in a cooperative research
program (with Dr. Diener in
plant pathology, and Dr. Sal-
Norman D. Davis
mon and Dr. Prickett of the
animal science department) on
the- toxic effects which (moldy
feed has on farm animals. Dr.
Davis says that feed which has
become moldy poses a serious
problem in agriculture.
Dr. Davis is also assisting and
guiding the research being car­ried
on by two Auburn stu­dents.
Dean Neptune, an under­graduate
student in horticul­ture,
is interested in the devel­opment
of orchids from seeds.
A graduate student, David El-dridge,
is working with algae.
Dr. Davis hopes the research
program on algae can be ex­panded.
The National Aeronau­tics
and Space Administration
is concerned with the effects of
extremely high and low tem­peratures
on the growth and
production of algae, and wheth­er
plant life can exist in such
an environment.

The Court Order The Young Communist
Auburn received a court order last
week which will probably end segrega­tion
on this Southeast Alabama campus.
The move should come as no surprise
to anyone. We are one of the last uni­versities
of large size in the South to
receive such an order. The delay should
work to our advantage. We have seen
the integration crises at the University
of Mississippi, the University of Ala­bama,
and Clemson College. There is
no doubt as to which examples we must
follow. The rioting at Mississippi will
forever be a black mark on the South.
We cannot conceive Auburn handling
this crisis in a manner less dignified
than that displayed by the University
of Alabama.
Although Auburn has appealed the
district court order to enroll Harold
Franklin, the Negro student, there is
little possibility that this appeal will
get to first base. The university will
most likely request a stay of injunction
until the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals
can hear the case. In layman's terms,
this means that Franklin could not be
admitted to Auburn until the court
of appeals made a ruling.
The court will probably refuse to
grant this stay. It will likely not even
review the Franklin case until after
Jan. 2. When the court does review
the case, it will probably refuse to grant
a retrial. This means that Harold Frank­lin
will likely be an Auburn student
when registration is completed Winter
Quarter. It also means that we must
prepare ourselves mentally to accept
integration when it comes.
It is unimportant at this stage of the
game whether we agree or disagree
with the principle of integration. Au­burn
University is in the education bus­iness.
This is our sole purpose for be­ing
here. The full cooperation of every
student will be required to see that
this institution continues its education­al
endeavors. Now is a good time to
make up our minds to go about our
business as usual, integration or no in­tegration.
Is There World Enough, Or Time?
Just For A Shrug, A Sip Of Beer

Chemistry Revote §> •
A revote will be held in the School
Hi Chemistry tomorrow. The Student
Senate found complaints against poll
officials for trying to influence voters
to be justified. This is likely a distaste­ful
first for student politics at Auburn.
We find the actions of these poll of­ficials
to be totally unethical. It is our
belief that these individuals should
never again be allowed to participate
j n campus elections, in any capacity
other than that of a voter. Since there
was no such provision in the action
taken by the Student Senate, we feel
that the political parties, which these
poll officials represented, should as­sume
the responsibility for banning
these persons from campus political af­fairs.
/
While it may be true that these peo­ple
had no influence on thff outcomeTD^
the Chemistry election, the Senate was
right in calling for a revote. Th6 Senate,"'
decision to allow only those chemistry
students who previously voted to vote
again, is quite fair.
Although this election violation is
somewhat minor, it is heartening to
see the Student Senate make a deter­mined
effort to clear the air of any
discrepancies in student elections. We
hope that the Senate action will estab­lish
a precedent for the conduct of cam­pus
elections. Student elections re-receive
enough criticism when they are
cleanly conducted. Any indication of
tainted elections would destroy the Au­burn
concept of student government.
No Parade
The committee on pep rallies and
parade of the Auburn-Alabama Better
Relations Meeting has announced that
there will be no parade in Birmingham
next year. We consider the cessation of
this parade to be most unfortunate. It
will detract from the color surround­ing
the festive Auburn-Alabama week
end.
With conditions as they are in Birm­ingham,
there was no alternative. The
city has undergone weeks of rioting"
and demonstrations arising from racial
flareups. Birmingham's image has been
smeared across the headlines of every
major newspaper in the world. The city
just cannot afford any situation that
might even light a spark to further
street disorders. A riot is a riot, wheth­er
it arises from racia» tensions, foot­ball
rivalries, or drunken conventions.
The city of Birmingham is tired. Its
valiant police force has been called to
assume tasks above and beyond the call
of duty. Although there would likely
be no incident arising from the Auburn-
Alabama parade, we have no right to
ask this strife-torn city to assume the
risk.
The better relations group stated
that full consideration would be given
to reviving the parade at next year's
meeting. We hope that this considera­tion
will lead to a renewal of the Au­burn-
Alabama parade. The parade is a
credit to the spirit of both institutions.
We hope that 1964 will see the biggest
and best parade ever. It's just not in
the cards for this year.
He is tall, sandy haired, and
attractive. He has blue eyes,
tapering at the corners into
pleasant laugh wrinkles. He
smiles a lot. His hands are cal-oused,
though he is a student,
and his hair, as that of his
friends, is worn long enough
to curl slightly at his neck and
temples. He is a communist.
Startling, isn't it? Not the
standard image of a scowling,
depraved fiend waving a red
flag. His shoes are on his feet,
and not the table. He's young
enough to remember vividly
the events that took place in
his home town — Budapest —
seven years ago. He had a cou­sin
who lost his life beneath
a Russian tank, an uncle who,
having escaped into Austria, is
now teaching at the Univer­sity
of Vienna.
And yet when we, dumb­founded
at the incongruity of
this affable young man and j
the small red book bearing
that odious hammer and sickle
insignia which he had taken
fom his pocket to show us,
half in jest—when we par­tially
overcame our speech­lessness
to gasp, "1956. . . .",
he threw back his head, laugh­ing,
and uttered the only two
words of English he knew:
"American imperialism!"
So what happened? What is
it that took the bright young
mind of Gyrui Tarak and in­fused
it with this lie? What
put this abominable little red
book in the hands of a good-natured
kid who has laugh
wrinkles and never takes his
first sip of beer without toast­ing
Kossuth?
If "pressed, he would tell you
that the little red book opens
doors—to the university, to a
good job, to more Bohftensup-pe
on the table. As fas as the
ideology—he shrugs his shoul­ders
and takes another sip of
beer — he's n e v e r r e a l ly
thought about it much. He
knows there are a lot of com-p
l a i n t s made (Hungarians
are a little freer to complain
than most), but he'd rather
see the system improved than
abolished. True to his Magyar
temperament, he enjoys life—
music, wine, dancing. And
America? He has no enmity
whatsoever for it (shakes our
hands vigorously and toasts
George Washington). J a zz
ranks among his first loves
and is obviously, in his opin­ion,
the best thing America
ever came up with.
And war? What about war,
Gyrui Tarak? Don't you know
that your system is dedicated
to the destruction of ours? No,
let's don't talk about that, he
says. We should all live in
peace. We want only peace for
all men.
Sure you do, Gyuri, but you
don't make t h e decisions.
You're just a little-red-book
holder, blindly accepting the
party line, in unquestioning
subserviance to some all-pow­erful,
deadly, sabre-rattling
little man who sits in an on­ion-
domed palace a thousand
miles away and tells you what
to think. How do you picture
him, Gyrui, if you think of
him at all—sitting, as we are,
at a small table, _bis_ corgulent
fist gripping a bgapr vmtg, his
face red with laughter, calling
jokes to his friends? Well,
perhaps he is. But tfiat would
make him a human being, like
you are . . . l i k e I am. I
couldn't stand with a gun and
fire into the rosy round cheeks
of a jovial old man. And
heaven knows, I couldn't point
at you and pull a trigger . . .
not, you, with freckles sprink­led
across your nose and a
picture of your grandmother
in your wallet . . . any more
than you could willfully de­stroy
me. You'd think it ab­surd
if you could read these
thoughts. And yet, you and I
represent two so different
ideologies that it seems almost
inevitable that they clash, to
the destruction of one . . . or
both. Where is that intangible,
unseen idea that causes us to
hate all those who possess it?
If only we could destroy that
sinister, invisible thing with­out
destroying all the smiling,
rosy-cheeked heads in which

Auburn's Astronaut
The same Auburn that produced fam­ous
Marine Corps General "Howling
Mad" Smith has come up with another
'leatherneck' celebrity in Capt. Clifton
C. Williams, astronaut.
Captain Williams, a 1954 engineering
graduate, has been selected as one of
sixteen astronauts to participate in the
Apollo moon-shot project and the Gem­ini
program. Williams is the only astro­naut
chosen from this part of the coun­try.
He is also the only Marine in the
new group. If a word of sarcasm is in
order, we might add that he is the only
astronaut whose university was not list­ed
in a recent picture-feature by Life
magazine. i
Williams is living evidence of the re­markable
advances made in the past
decade by Auburn's School of Engi­neering.
He J a credit to the leader­ship
training program of Auburn's
Navy-Marine Corps R.O.T.C. In short,
we all have reason to be proud of Clif­ford
C. Williams of Mobile.
The Marine-astremaut has made plans
to visit his alma mater within the next
few weeks. The reception should be ro­yal.
Guest Editorial

Editor, The Red and Black
University of Georgia
To the Auburn Student Body:
We at the University of Georgia are looking
forward to your visit to our campus this Saturday
for the annual Georgia-Auburn football classic.
Let it'be understood that the Bulldogs intend
to show no mercy to the War Eagles. Georgia will
be out to win, as we are sure you will be.
But win or lose, any irrational acts in the name
of "school spirit" by students of either school can
blot an otherwise colorful and enjoyable event.
We hope that students and fans from both schools
will display the same spirit of sportsmanlike ri­valry
in which our respective teams have always
met.
We are looking forward to being your hosts for
a big week end and a thrilling football game.
Integration Requires Consideration;
Perspective Viewpoint Necessary
By George McMillan, Jr.
Referring to the " C i v il
rights" movement, the Aug. 23,
Wall Street Journal states,
"Few political leaders now
dare to try to distinguish be­tween
a just and worthy cause
—the assurance of equal poli­tical
rights for all citizens in
our society — and a headlong
assault against society itself,
its ways of living and of ord­ering
the laws by which it
lives."
Auburn will, no doubt, see
evidence of this assault in
January when the federal gov­ernment
will attempt to inte­grate
t h e University. The
temptation will be to regard
this as an isolated case involv­ing
Auburn alone and to re­act
to it emotionally and with­out
honest consideration of the
realities involved. Indeed, such
a reaction is encouraged by the
social-religionists, and many
instructors .But it is clearly un­wise.
We can understand the
attempt to integrate Auburn—
and thus have a clear basis for
our actions relating to it—
only if we view it in perspec­tive,
with a hold on the reali­ties
involved. And to- do this
means to dismount ideological
hobby horses which obscure
reality.
The ultimate aim of school
integration is no longer dis­guised
by most Negro leaders
and their white supporters,
who admit that intermarriage
must be the result of s u ch
mixing. The Negro Pittsburgh
Courier editorializes: "Of
course we favor racial mixing,
including marriage." Adam
Clayton Powell, citing the in­creased
miscegenation that is
resulting f r o m integration
states, "You can't fight against
segregation and want separa­tion.
You can't have a position
on the one hand against segre­gation
and on the other hand
against inter-racial marriage."
And you can't.
It is but reasonable, then, to
consider what the effects of
Negro - white intermarriage
will be, particularly what they
will be upon the South, where
the great part of the Negro
population is concentrated (e.
g., in 1950 Mississippi had
46%, S o u t h Carolina 39%,
Louisiana 33% non-whites).
Donald Davidson in his Still
Rebels, Still Yankees says
something about these effects
which we may no longer safe­ly
ignore. "It is not possible,"
he writes, "to absorb the Ne­gro
into (Southern) white
society in full and equal status
without tearing that society to
pieces and completely, per­haps
conclusively, changing
i t . ' •
Carlton Coon (Reality of
Race), Carlton Putnam (Race
and Reason), Frank McGurk,
Henry E. Garrett, R. Ruggles
Gates, and other eminent mod­ern
anthropologists, psychia­trists,
and zoologists affirm the
scientific basis for Davidson's
conclusion.
Moreover, their findings re­fute
the validity of the socio­logical
arguments used by the
Supreme Court in its 1954
school integration decision.
They all affirm that intelli­gence
and character are deter­mined
primarily by r a c e,
which in turn molds a society.
All approve of Putnam's con­clusions
that (1) the Negro
race has shown itself innately
incapable of p r o d u c i n g a
stable society, (2) that at its
best it has never produced a
society comparable to the
more mediocre ones wrought
by White or Oriental races,
(3) that there is no basis for
assuming that the race can
now do so, (4) that Negro-white
amalgamation can only
drag the white r a c e to the
point that it is incapable of
maintaining the kind of so­ciety
which it has traditionally
been able to achieve, and (5)
that these incapacities of the
Negro race stem not from en­vironmental
influences b ut
from racial genetic qualities.
These results of miscegena­tion
are what the Southern
student must consider when
considering "token" integra­tion.
And once having decided
upon the principle, he must
not be led astray by "excep­tions."
One editor put it this
way: "If integration is wrong,
we cannot concede that even a
little bit of it is right."
Similarly, we cannot con­cede
that opposition is hope­less
and that it is best simply
to accept integration and make
the best of it. To do. so is mor­ally
indefensible.' The NAACP
and the mass media are trying
hard to convince everyone that
the fight is over; but it has
only begun in earnest—in both
North and South. To win tile

"love" and face the real issue
honestly.
We must recall that preser­vation
of racial identity and
integrity (and hence a Society
in which our religious, moral,
and cultural values may exist)
is a "human right". Having
squarely faced this reality, we
must act accordingly—realiz­ing

Sectionalism Is The Battle Cry
As General Bullmoose Rides Again
By Bobby Boettcher
Two recent events, a gubern­atorial
election in Mississippi
and a conference of Southern
Republican leaders in South
Carolina—give some notewor­thy
clues to the'true nature of
Southern Republicanism.
In Mississippi, Democrat Paul
Johnson defeated Republican
Rubel Phillips. Until last year
Phillips had been a Democratic
public official, but he left the
Democratic party when he rea­lized
that he could never re­concile
his notions of the "Sou­thern
way of life" and racial
segregation with the position of
the national party. Searching
for some kind of veil of respec­tability
for his prejudice, he
turned to the thriving new Sou­thern
Republican movement
and was offered a faint hope of
power in the future. By cham­pioning
the cause of Barry
Goldwater as the only savior
of the South, he was able to
convince himself and his fol­lowers
that they were a part
of a great national movement.
But Rubel Phillips and his fel­low
Republicans of similar
sentiment are no more Repub­lican
than Paul Johnson is De­mocratic.
They are, first and
foremost—Southerners, and any
other consideration is of se­condary
importance to them.
A spokesman for the South­ern
Republican leaders' con­ference
in Charleston, S. C. dis­missed
any doubt as to the val-'
idity of this point when he said
last week, "We have every
reason to believe that the South
will elect the next President
of the United States." At al­most
the same time, "Demo­cratic"
Governor Wallace, in
New England, was prophesying
the election of the President
of the United States being de­cided
by unpledged- Southern
electors through the House of
Representatives. Both these
have one aim in mind—to pre-s
e r v e r a c i a l segregation
through increased Southern po­litical
power. And they are
willing to sacrifice the well-being
of the nation in order to
accomplish it. "What's good for
General Bullmoose is good for
the whole country", Al Capp
aptly says.
These Southerners would
drag the United States back to
the days of sectionalism which
led up to" the Civil War. They
would recast in the minds of all
Americans the image of the in­terests
of one section struggling
against those of another sec-t
i o n. Southern Republicans
grope for refuge in Senator
Goldwater, in response to his
plausible, though ambivalent
pronouncements on s t a t e s '
rights. But neither the Sena­tor
nor the national Republi­can
party are anxious to have
the albatross of bigotry hung
about their necks, for should
they allow themselves to be
tainted by Southern Republi­canism,
the Republican party of
America would likely come to
an end through a misapplica­tion
of conservative principles.

"It's dark as a dungeon
down deep in the mine." Re­cent
cave-ins in Germany,
Pennsylvania, and Japan have
once again recalled the world's
attention to the time-worn job
of mining.
The mine is a perfect ex­ample
of the
s t r a t ifica-t
i o n t h at
comes some­times
to A-merica's
la­bor
f o r c e.
The man of
50 g e t s up
on a c o ld
mo r n i n g,
d r e s s e s
q u i c k l y,
eats a hur­ried
breakfast, and races off
to the elevator which will
carry him down to the pits.
For eight hours or more, he
loses contact with the outside
world. A headlantern, a pick,
a shovel, and a few compan­ions
are the only friends he
has for eight hours or more
each day.
When the miner returns to
the surface on many days of
the year, there is no sunlight
to accompany his weary jour­ney
home. His eyes, and often
his mind, are devoid of any
sunlight for months on end.
<• At the bottom of those pits,
there is always the subcon­scious
fear that a great rumble
will be heard overhead. It
must be terrifying to realize
that the only world you know
might literally, at any time,
come toppling in on your head.
This is one of the real tragic
aspects of the miner's job. He
must, over a period of time,
become insensitive to many of
the basic hopes and fears of
man.
He must close his mind to
many of the joys and security
factors of daily life. And as
poets throughout the ages have
written: when a man closes
his mind, he is as surely dead
as the corpse in the funeral
home-i' :
For some reason; the story
does not usually end with this
man. It carries down through
the generations of his family.
His children are raised under
the aroma of the mining com­pany's
smokestacks. This is
their initiation. Either before
or after high school education,
they too will draw their I.D.
cards and head for the abysses
below.
The story of mining is a long
one. It has undergone every
major phase of the industrial
revolution and the organiza­tion
of labor. There have been
material compensations for the
miner over the years. Children
of 13 are no longer permitted
to spend their adolescence in
the pits for 15 cents an hour.
The miner now draws a wage
with which he can adequately
support his family. He has in­surance
benefits which will
care for them after tons of
falling debris give him a free
burial at depths below the six-foot
level. Labor unions have
been good for the miner. Even
they cannot abolish the per­petual
ills associated with the '
job.
Coal mine strikes in West.
Virginia and Kentucky have
been portrayed as harsh and
bitter by the nation's press. It
is no wonder. The day that a
man walks into those pits for
the first time, he is assuming
a cold, tough outlook on life.
When the striking miner re­sorts
to violence, a very real
psychological dilemma is pre­sent.
The miner often knows no
other way to express his griev­ances.
This is one reason why
the properly directed labor un­ion
is essential to the American
way of life.
As modern developments
such as refined petroleum
have taken more and more
mining jobs, it is little wonder
that the miner wants to strike
back. After giving his body
and soul to a 'hell on earth'
for years, the oftentimes un­educated
miner must surely
feel that society has kicked
him in the teeth when he sees
his job taken away from him.
The miner is, and always will
be, a tragic remnant of the
industrial revolution.
One of the trapped German
miners has said upon rescue
that he will not return to the
pits. What will he do? He
probably doesn't know. He
owes his soul to a god named
COAL.

Letters To The Editor
Victory At Any Price
Does Not Become A.U.
Editor, The Plainsman:
Saturday afternoon at the
homecoming game with Flor­ida,
I saw and heard what ap­peared
to be an organized ef­fort
by the student cheering
section to drown out the abil­ity
of the visiting Florida team
to hear their line signals, and
thus impair their effort against
the winning Auburn team.
Victory is always sweet but
victory against any sort of a
crippled team cannot be as
honourable as when realized
against the best efforts of the
foe.
I hope the "Auburn Spirit"
means more to the student
cheering section than just a
mere phrase. It means a lot
more to me and to thousands
of people in the South whose
loyalties belong to other Col­leges.
It won their praise dur­ing
the lean years because a
fine student body, proud even
in defeat, engendered their
admiration.
Let's not adopt a new atti­tude
of "Victory at any price."
It is not becoming to Auburn.
War Eagle!

According to Kinh, the opin­ions
of the United States in
Vietnam are highly contrasted
in nature. Among the people
of the lower class there is a
widespread misunderstanding
of the United States. While
the U.S. spends great quanti­ties
of money in Vietnam, the
only tangible evidence the
average farmer sees is the
wealth accumulated by some
of the government officials.
He still must eke a meager
existence out of the soil, he
still believes that his crops fail
or his livestock get sick be­cause
of a shifting of the wind,
and his son still lives shackled
to the same existence.
Meanwhile t h e aristocrats
drive around in American

On the other hand, Kinh
pointed out, the people of the
middle class are highly appre­ciative
of what the U.S. is try­ing
to do for Vietnam. These
people, who to a great extent
are government workers, are
able to see the true issue.

THE PLAINSMAN AUBURN, ALABAMA, WEDNESDAY, NOV. 13, 1963 PAGE -SIX
Things Should . . .
It's all over now. The pressure is off. No longer do you
have to sit around wondering in which post-season bowl game
the Auburn Tigers will perform.
Veering only slightly from our usual pesimestic approach to
Auburn football last week, we filled this same space with some
trite reflections concerning the Tiger's 19-0 homecoming vic­tory
over Florida. It was the first (and last) time that we have
been guilty of this attitude. We have always felt that wins (or
losses, as the case may be) should be forgotten on Monday
morning, thus enabling the team to prepare for the next oppon­ent.
"Preparing" includes both physical and psychological prep­arations—
and looking ahead to possible bowl games when you
are 6-0 is not. the state of mind in which to meet teams like Mis­sissippi
State, Georgia, Florida State, and Alabama.
Whether the Tigers were ready or not last week is now
beside the point. The only thought that should occupy their
minds this week is a tough squad of Georgia Bulldogs. The
1963 football season is yet a long way from being over—
a sparkling 9-1 record is still a possibility (although an 8-2
card is more realistic).
. . . Get Better . . .
We have said it before and we will say it again—if this
bunch of young Tigers don't post another victory this year they
still have plenty to be proud of: namely, a 29-21 win over Tech,
a 19-0 shutout of Florida, and seven football games that dis­played
the results of dedicated coaching, practicing, and much
unselfish effort on the part of many.
Shouts of "We're number one", "Beat Bama", and related
displays of student confidence accomplished little toward
convincing Mississippi State that Auburn has the better foot­ball
team. Only the players themselves were capable of endow­ing
the Bulldogs with this knowledge—and they fell short.
However, we would be the last to say that they failed last
Saturday in Jackson. "Failed" is not the proper term to be ap­plied
in this situation. Auburn was supposed (according to the
pre-season prognostications) to post a 5-5 slate this fall. The
fact is that they are already at least 6-4—thus, the season in
no way could be termed a "failure". Included in these six vic-

• Vt will be homecoming in Sanford Stadium. The Georgia Bull-
"" ^Sogs, possessing* a hard-earned 4r3-l record, will be on the
rebound from their 21-11, loss to Florida in Jacksonville last
week. The University of Georgia feels the same way about
Auburn that we do about Georgia Tech—there is no opponent on
their schedule that they had rather defeat. Also, the Tiger-
Bulldog series is the oldest football series in the deep South
—a win in this series enchances the SEC prestige of either
institution.
I . . Before They . . .
The college football fan never ceases to be a source of
amazement for us. When his team is winning—and winning by
large margins—he backs them to the hilt. But when his team
losses (say one game in seven) or fails to grind some minor
opponent (say Tulane) into the ground, his attitude changes
he suddenly begins to critize the coaching, the players, and
even the waterboy. This "Sunday morning quarterback" atti­tude
was much in evidence this week.
Two men in particular have been the object of such remarks
this season: one Paul Bryant of Alabama and one Ralph Jordan
of Auburn. Each of the afore-mentioned gentlemen have guided
their respective teams to outstanding 6-1 records in a season
that was labeled "rebuilding" at each of their respective schools.
This we do not understand—just what does it take to please
everyone? Must you humiliate every team you play, thus sacri­ficing
valuable game-time experience for your sophomores?
. . . Get Worse!
Alabama has lost only one contest—a slim 10-6 upset posted
by Florida. Auburn, likewise, has lost only one decision—
that being the 13-10 licking handed to them by Mississippi
State last Saturday. We aren't so sure that you should sell
either of these two squads short. In the words of line coach
George Atkins, "Don't get down on these boys. We are. not a-shamed
of them . . . they were defeated by a darn good football
team."
And Coach Atkins, like us, thinks that they learned their
lesson. Things are different now—the pressure is off. Our
young Tigers, short on beef but long on heart, have finally
met their match. They will bounce back now, confident that they
can spoil Georgia's homecoming, rid Florida State's Seminoles
of their "big time" dreams, and face Alabama with 8-1 creden­tials
on Nov. 30 at Legion Field. The Tide, likewise, should
handle Georgia Tech Saturday, rest a week, and prepare to
meet Sidle, Inc. with a 7-1 slate.
So, why not let the sports writers fill their idle hours specu­lating
as to which teams will be playing which bowl games? We
are far more concerned with a Bulldog this week—a Bulldog'
in Athens who will try to catch a rebounding, young, angry Ti­ger
by the tail Saturday. Let's forget about post-season classics
and national ratings for awhile. These things will come in due
time—after Auburn has defeated Georgia, trounced Florida
State, and squared-off with the Crimson Tide.
Yep, things should, indeed, get better before they get
• worse! See you in Athens . . .

Auburn Prepares To Face Georgia
In Crucial SEC Battle At Athens
Sidle, Rakestraw Lock Horns
As Bulldogs Mark Homecoming
A wounded Auburn Tiger will attempt to regain his
football prestige against an erratic Georgia Bulldog in
Athens, Ga., Saturday at 2 p.m. (EST). A capacity
homecoming crowd of 46,722 is expected to be on hand
for the 67th meeting of two ancient SEC rivals.
The series currently stands
at 31-29-6 in favor of Georgia.
It was supposed to have been
a tied series when the Bull­dogs
left Cliff Hare Stadium
last year. Such was not the
case. A Larry Rakestraw-led
Georgia team upset a strong
Auburn 11 which was riding a
fine 6-1 record going into the
contest. The Tigers are taking
an identical record to Athens
Saturday. Rakestraw and his
superlative pass-receivers, Pat
Hodgson and Mickey Babb,
will form the reception comr
mittee. The 1963 Bulldogs
bring a 3-3-1 record into Sat­urday's
contest. They have
rolled up victories over Van-derbilt,
South Carolina, and
Miami while losing to Ala­bama,
North Carolina, and
Florida. A 7-7 tie with Clem-son
was earned in the South
Carolinian's "Death Valley."
Alabama is the only team to
beat Georgia in Sanford Stad­ium
this year.
Auburn must stop Rake­straw
if it is to win Saturday.
As Rakestraw goes, so go the
Bulldogs. The 6-2, 195 pound
senior from Atlanta, Ga., prac­tically
rewrote the SEC record
book with -a 414 yard total
offense performance against
Miami four Saturdays ago.
Rakestraw has two prime
targets in Mickey"'BSrjb,r a 6-4,
227 pburM senior, and*'"Pat
Hodgson, a 6-1, 190 pound so­phomore.
Hodgson, a third
generation Georgia fqptballer,
is the first sophomore• .since
Georia pro-great Jimmy Orr
in 1955 to threaten upper-classmen
for the SEC receiv­ing
crown.
Georgia brings a host of tal­ented
and experienced backs
into Saturday's game. Left
h a l f b a c k Don Porterfield
caught three Rakestraw aer­ials
for touchdowns in last
year's contest. Auburn will
once again be faced with stop­ping
the running assault of a
l e t t e r m a n - loaded ground
corps w h i c h includes half­backs
Wayne S w i n f o r d,
Fred Barber, and Billy Know-les.
Knowles, the Georgia cap­tain,
is a native of Ozark, Ala.
The Bulldogs have two exper­ienced
fullbacks, Frank Lan-kewicz
and Leon Armbrester,
to plunge at the center of the
Auburn line.
The Auburn line will have
to put a strong rush on Rake­straw,
if they are to stop the
Bulldog attack. Georgia op­ponents
who have harassed
Rakestraw in the backfield all
day have beaten the 'Dogs. If
Rakestraw gets adequate pro­tection,
Georgia can hold its
own against any team in the
nation.
Auburn defensive halfbacks
Billy Edge and George Rose,
and safetyman Tucker Frede-rickson
will get their stiffest
test of the season with the
likes of Hodgson and Babb
sssx&y
running loose in the second­ary.
Center Mike" Alford and
right tackle John McAfee will
have stiff face-to-face assign­ments
with Georgia's best
middlemen, R a y Rissmiller
and Len Hauss.
Georgia's place kicking game
is second to none in the SEC.
Specialist B i l l McCullough
booted a near-record 48-yard
field goal at Cliff Hare Stad­ium
last year. Auburn spec­ialist
Woody Woodall booted a
47-yarder to spark a 10-7 Au­burn
victory in Stanford Stad­ium
two years ago.
The Tigers will have the
punting edge with Jon Kilgore
doing the chores. Georgia has
had its punting troubles, but
junior Mack Faircloth has
been adding distance to his
boots every week.
GEORGE ROSE, starting.,
halfback for the Tigers in
all seven games this fall, is
the favorite target of quart­erback
Jimmy Sidle's swing
passes. Rose has 13 recep­tions
for a total of 144 yards
this season, thus averaging
11.0 yards per catch.
TOUGH MAXWELL TEAM NEXT
FOR AUBURN SOCCER SQUAD
By UWE E. K. ROTHE
The Auburn soccer team will
play Maxwell S. O. S. at 2 pirn,
next Saturday on the soccer
green of the drill field.
On the rebound from their
6-1 loss to OGMS, the soccer
team posted the same score on
Shorter College <>i Rome, Ga.,
but this time they were on
the victorious end.
Using a dazzling, fast-break
offense combined with a stingy
halfback defense, the Tigers
took an early lead and kept
pounding away at the Shorter
goal, until the final whistle
blew, when Shorter found it­self
six goals short of a victory.
Even though it was more of
an offensive show, the bril­liant
performance of Stewart
Home, Auburn's lanky 190
pound goalie, stood out to the
awe of spectators and players
until he twisted his ankle in
the final period. Stu had to
fill the shoes of last year's sen­sational
goalie, Gunther Strum.
This he did ably, as he- contin­uously
punted the ball 60 yards
to spur the fast-break offense
and stopped all threats of
Shorter goals. The only goal
scored past him was as he was
lying hurt on the ground after
trying to avoid a free kick
which would have resulted
from his stepping out of the
goal circle with the ball in his
hands. He successfully threw
the ball back in, only by twist­ing
his ankle.
Auburn shot 48 times, an
average of over one shot per
two minutes of playing time.
After the first minute of play,
Ben Shabo found i the foothold
to power the first goal into the
net. Three minutes later Gus
Cordonis put Auburn ahead 2-
0, which remained the score
until the end of the first quart­er.
On a cross from Carl Harris,
George Chavez-Taffor account­ed
for the only score in the se­cond
quarter.
After the half, the Plains­men
came out with a passing
attack which resulted in a goal
by co-captain Juergen Arndt.
After three goals were nulli­fied
in the fourth quarter be­cause
of offside rulings, Shabo
toed a pass high in the air and
relayed it into the goal corner
in a beautiful shot. George fol­lowed
suit a few plays later
to make the final score 6-1.
Although not scoring, the line
play of Chris Hart, co-captain
Carl Harris, Jim Russell and
Chris Treutler must be men­tioned,
as well as defensive
halfbacks Gus Hoyer, Fred
Chen, 'Jake Rollison, and Earn­est
McLean.
Basketball Squad
Picked To Appear
On Area Screens
The Auburn Tiger basket­ball
team, will play two South­eastern
Conference opponents
on a regional television net­work
this winter, according to
information released by Ath­letic
Director Jeff Beard.
The contests to be televised
are the Auburn-Georgia game,
Feb. 8, and the Auburn-Ken­tucky
game, Feb. 22. Both tilts
will be played in the Sports
Arena at Auburn. Tip-off time
will be at 2:30 p.m., however,
instead of the customary 7:30
p.m. time.
The games will be carried
on a regional network that
will telecast in the seven
states represented in the SEC:
Tennessee, Kentucky, Georgia,
Florida, Alabama, Mississippi,
and Louisiana.
Arrangements for the net­work
are being handled by a
firm in Louisville, Ky., that
has signed an agreement with
the Southeastern Conference.
Auburn will derive most of
the income from the two
games televised from here
with a small percentage of it
going to the SEC.
According to Coach Beard,
"This is sort of an experimen­tal
deal. At the present, the
agreement is for this season
only . . . but it may be con­tinued
in the future if it is
successful."

of the "all-out" type per­formers
that man the young
Auburn line this season.
Fresh from a thumping 19
40 victory over an outclassed
cross country squad from the
University of Alabama, the
Auburn Tiger harriers host
Georgia Tech this Monday at
2 p.m. over the local course.
In last Monday's meet
against Alabama, Charles Pat­terson
set a new course record
of 18:17.2 over the 3.5 mile
Auburn circuit in leading the
Plainsmen to a lopsided vic­tory.
The old record of 18:27.6
was held by Jack Brewer of
Auburn who- set' t h e standard
against Georgia "Tech in 1961.
Sweeping five of the first
seven places, Auburn manag­ed
to defeat the Crimson Tide
by a margin similar to the one
compiled by Tech against the
Tide last week.
Compared to time trials held
on the same- course three
weeks ago, Coach Rosen re­marked
that last Monday's
performances were 10 to 15
seconds faster pointing up the
fact that many weeks of prac­tice
were beginning to p ay
dividends.
Next week's tussle with
Tech will mark Patterson's
final appearance on the Au­burn
course, and he will re­portedly
be attempting to fin­ish
as near 18 minutes as pos­sible,
in an effort to better his |
newly posted record time.
Placing second in the meet
was Jim Lynch of Auburn,
who was closely pursued by
G a r y Terrill of Alabama.

Does a man really take unfair advantage of women
when he uses Mennen Skin Bracer?
All depends on why he uses it.
Most men simply think Menthol-Iced Skin Bracer is the best
after-shave lotion around. Because it cools rather than burns.
Because it helps heal shaving nicks and scrapes. Because it
helps prevent blemishes.
So who can blame them if Bracer's crisp, long-lasting aroma
just happens to affect women so remarkably?
Of course, some men may use Mennen Skin Bracer because
of this effect. /—»

Oldest Dixieland
Gridiron Rivalry
Set For Saturday
.The most ancient football
rivalry in the Deep South will
once again unfold in Samford
Stadium this Saturday when
the Auburn Tigers meet the
University of Georgia Bull­dogs.
This time-honored gridiron
series began back in the year
of 1892. The Tigers posted only
two victories on their four-game
schedule that year, but
one of these wins was a 10-0
shut-out over the Bulldogs.
Thus began the oldest active
football rivalry in the land
where cotton then reigned as
king.
Since that fateful day of 71
years ago, the Tigers have pit­ted
their might against the
Bulldogs nearly annually. Of
the 66 games played by these
two institutions, 31 of them
have meant victory on the
Georgia schedule, while the
Tigers have clawed the 'Dogs
for 29 wins. Only six of the
matches have resulted in shut­outs.
Except for the war-torn
year of 1943 (when neither
team fielded a football squad),
these two schools have met
consecutively since 1919. For
many years the contest was
held in nearby Columbus, but
in recent seasons the game has
been played on a home and
home basis.
Some of the scores posted
down through the years have
been rather interesting. Of
particular interest is the fact
that no less than 30 of the
outs.

Labeled the Powder Puff
Derby, the mood of the fray
was reflected in the program
which supplied the vital sta­tistics
concerning the competi­tors.
According to the sheet, the
teams boasted such • standout
performers as "Big Mama. I"
Akin. "Jo:k" Oakly. and "Bod"
Beall. One of the biggest parti­cipants
in the game was 700
pound "Tank" Turner, a player
whom many spectators thought
would roll rather than run
down the field, from her de­scription!
Such booming metropolis' as
Dexadrine Springs, Chittlin
Switch, Loserville, and Chigger
Ridge, were listed as home­towns,
with one player desig­nating
Snowless, Alabama' as
home.
Once underway, the game
featured good blocking and a
surprising amount of coordi­nation,
which had no doubt
been developed in the six
weeks of practice each team
devoted toward preparing for
this single game.
Several passes of consider­able
distance were attempted
and made bv KD quarterback,
"Cozy Rosy" McMahan, whose
accurate heaves might have
been welcomed by more than
one fraternity team.

7 Teams Vie For Championships
As Intramurals Near Season's End
By BILL POWELL
With only one week remaining in i n t r a m u r a l foot­ball
play, the league-leading fraternities are as follows:
League One, Sigma Nu; League Two, Alpha Tau Omega
and Kappa Alpha; League Three, Theta Chi and Phi
Kappa Tau; and League Four, Pi Kappa Phi.
The week's intramural acti­vity,
although hampered by
rain, was still full of upsets
and surprises. The game of the
week was the one between TX
and PKA, in which TX upset
the undefeated PKA's by a
score of 2 to 0. This victory
put TX in a tie with PKA for
first place in League Three. In
the only other league that
played, PKP extended their
winning streak to five games
with a win over AGR.
Through four games the
Navy football team is unde­feated,
the squad having de­feated
BSU, Wesley, and New­man,
the latter having fallen
twice to the future naval offi­cers.

(Author of "Rally Round the Flag, Boys!"
and "Barefoot Boy With Cheek.")
I WAS A TEEN-AGE SLIDE RULE
In a recent learned journal (Playboy) the distinguished board
chairman (Ralph "Hot Lips" Sigafoos) of one of our most
important American industrial corporations (the Arf Mechan­ical
Dog Co.) wrote a trenchant article in which he pinpointed
our single most serious national problem: the lack of culture
among science graduates.
Let me hasten to state that Mr. Sigafoos's article was in no
sense derogatory. He said emphatically that the science grad­uate,
what with his gruelling curriculum in physics, math, and
chemistry, can hardly be expected to find time to study the
arts too. What distresses Mr. Sigafoos—and, indeed, all of us—
is the lopsided result of today's science courses: graduates
who can build a skyscraper but can't compose a concerto; who
know Newton's Third Law but not Beethoven's Fourth Sym-
% kided mlt ((m^ciewe
phony; who are familiar with Fraunhofer's lines but not with
Shelley's.
Mr. Sigafoos can find no solution to this lamentable imbat«
ance. I, however, believe there is one—and a very simple one.
It is this: if students of science don't have time to come to
the arts, then the arts must come to students of science.
For example, it would be a very easy thing to teach poetry
and music right along withiphysics. Students, instead of being
called upon merely to recite, would instead be required to
rhyme their answers and set them to familiar tunes—like, for
instance, the stirring Colonel Bogey March. Thus recitations
would not only be chock-a-block with important facts but
would, at the same time, expose the students to the aesthetic
delights of great poetry and music. Here, try it yourself. You
all know The Colonel Bogey March. Come, sing along with me:
Physics
Is what we learn in class.
Einstein
Said energy is mass,
Newton
Is high-faluiin'
And Pascal's a rascal. So's Boyle. . _
Do you see how much more broadening, how much more up­lifting
it is to learn physics this way? Of course you do. What?
You want another chorus? By all means:
Leyden
He made the Leyden jar. • •
Trolley
He made the Trolley car.
Curie
Rode in a surrey
And Diesel's a weasel. So's Boyle. —
Once the student has mastered The Colonel Bogey Marcht
he can gcTon to more complicated melodies like Death and Trans*
figuration, Sixteen Tons, and Boo-Hoo.
And when the student, loaded not only with science but
with culture, leaves his classroom and lights his Marlboro
Cigarette, how much more he will enjoy that filter, that flavor,
that pack or box! Because there will no longer be a little voice
within him repeating that he is culturally a dolt. He will know
—know joyously—that he is a complete man, a fulfilled man,
and he will bask and revel in the pleasure of his Marlboro as a
colt rolls in new grass—exultant and triumphant—a truly
educated human person—a credit to his college, to himself, and
to his tobacconist!

We, the makers of Marlboros and sponsors of this column,
urge you not to roll colt-wise in the grass if you are carrying
a soft pack of Marlboros in your pocket. If, however, you
are carrying the crush-proof box and weigh less than 200
pounds, you may safely fling yourself about.
undefeated PKA, TX came out
victorious by a low score of
2 to 0. The only scoring of the
game came in the second per­iod
when the hard charging
TX line tagged PKA's quar­terback
behind his goal line
for a safety. The win climaxed
one of the closest races this
season, as TX and PKA now
are tied for league champion
with identical records of 4-1.
OTS surprised LCA by scor­ing
in the closing minutes of
the game to win 7 to 6. The
lone LCA tally came in the
third quarter.
The other game in League
Three, found SP winning their
second game of the season by
trampling KS, 26 to 0. The SP
offense scored in every period
while their defense held KS
to [Very little yardage.
LEAGUE FOUR
In League Four PKP re­mained
undefeated in five
games as they defeated AGR
by a score of 25 to 7. AGR
broke into the scoring column
first with a TD in the early
part of the first quarter, but
were unable to stop the fine
passing of the PKP quarter­back,
Richard Tobinson. He
passed for three touchdowns
and scored the other TD him­self
on a fine 50-yard run.
Stan Appleton scored the only
AGR tally.
PKT kept within close range
of PKP as they beat BP 16 to
0. The PKT offensive explod­ed
in the first period as they
scored two quick touchdowns
and led 14 to 6. However, BP's
defense tightened up and held
PKT to o n l y one safety
throughout the rest of the
game. This victory gave PKT
a 4 to 0 record with two games
remaining to play.
The only other action in
League Four was between
PDT and SPE. PDT's were
ahead in the second quarter
scoring a TD and extra point
and s t a y e d in the lead
throughout the entire game.
The final score was PDT 7-
SPE 6.

• Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way, when Mississippi State comes next
year, get out the cow bells and some hay! (Others have suggested more direct means
of getting the message across). A&M over Texas on Thanksgiving? . . . By virtue of
their predicting successes of late, the combined forces of the Old Pro and Phillips
have avoided never and are now challenging the leaders while Dixon continues to
hang on and Wilkinson remains hanging off. Gardner may have to return to his na­tive
profession, and the entire staff as well as the AROTC is threatening Rutberg
with deportation to various low-life localities. What is the implement for drinking
leaves called? We bet you'll have to ponder that one awhile!

Rivalry . . .
(Continued from page 7)
Althougn there has never
been a ridiculously high score
run up by either team, some
of the low scores have been
rather strange. In 1906 it was
4-0 in favor of Georgia, in
1902 it was 12-5 with the Bull­dogs
on the long end of the
point- total.
The longest winning skein in
the series was posted by Geor­gia
between 1923-31, when the
Bulldogs bit the Tigers nine
times in as many years.
The longest victory streak
run up by the Auburn teams
was halted by Georgia in 1959,
after the Tigers had licked
them six years consecutively.
The largest margin of points
ever chalked up in the series
occurred in 1900, with t he
War Eagles on the long end
of a 44-0 tally. This game also
marked the highest total score
by either team in the series.
The highest TD output in a
losing game by either team
happened in 1953, when the
'Dogs scored 18 points, yet lost
39-18. Georgia's largest mar­gin
of victory was in 1946,
when they mauled the Plains­men
by a 41-0 count.
