"Auburn has needed a speci­fic

Miss Howard said, the "War

own uniforms since they will be
able to wear them after gradua­tion.
She added that it is hoped
that in the future funds will be

The "War Eagle Girls" were

2 To 1 Sanction
Takes The Issue
To Trustees
A Student Senate resolution
which would raise the Student
Activities Fee by $1 to establish
a student radio station here was
approved yesterday in the stu­dent
election by a vote of 2,-
724 to 1,387.
A total of 4,380 students vot­ed
in the elections yesterday
but 236 students didn't vote on
the fee raise resolution. About
30 votes did not count because
of irregularities.
BOARD OF TRUSTEES
The resolution is subject to
the approval of the Board of
Trustees before any change in
student activities fees will be
made.
The Board will meet here to­morrow.
However, it is not
known if they will take action
on the resolution then.
TWO TO ONE
Bill Kennedy, chairman of
the Auburn Radio Commission,
which sponsored the movement
to pass the resolution, com­mented
last night that "The two
to one majority of students
voting for the fee raise to estab­lish
a station should concretely
show that students who are
concerned are clearly in favor

62 PER CENT
Approximately 62 per cent of
the students voting were in
favor of the fee raise, with 38
per cent against.

Philpott Outlines
The Student's Role
The first elements of concern to a university are its
students, President Harry M. Philpott told the Auburn
Chapter of the American Association of University Pro­fessors
this week in an address defining his philosophy
of administrative procedures.
The new administrator said, "The Board has given the

Trustees.

Gerald Rutberg, chairman of
the '66 conference said that
"this topic was selected for we
feel that it is a subject worthy
of continuing and up-to-date

Commenting on the approach

The First Sixty Days Of Harry M. Philpott
Confessions Of A Freshman President
By tomorrow evening Dr. Harry M. Philpott's first
60 days as president of Auburn University will be a
matter of record, but it will take the recordkeepers
sometime to catch up with the energetic educator's
tempo.
With his ever-present pipe, smooth voice once
trained for the pulpit, and dynamic blueprint for progress,
the man employed to lift Auburn to new academic heights
slipped fairly inconspicuously into his modest Samford Hall
suite on September 1. As faculty, staff and students vaca­tioned,
the former University of Florida vice-president man­aged
a deep breath and plowed headlong into a multi-pronged,
progressive program.
It is now two months hence and the ordained Baptist
minister and father of four shows no sign of slowing the
pace of his ambitious administration.
He describes his ice-breaking tenure as "very busy,
somewhat hectic and filled with very interesting experien­ces.
In actuality, they have largely been days filled with
getting acquainted with pople, learning about Auburn and
its programs, and in some cases having to make decisions
without any real feeling that you know all the facts, yet
some decision had to be made. But on the whole, they have
been very happy days too."
Normally a volumnous reader digesting an average of
three to four books each week, Dr. Philpott claims he has
not had an opportunity to avail himself of Auburn's library
facilities since taking office.
Instead, the new president, who is a golfer and exercise
buff, has made numerous trips and filled countless speak­ing
engagements where he has revealed the opening chapters
in his recipe book designed to meet the burgeoning expan­sion
needs of the University on a high quality basis.
As president of a university expected to have an en-
By GERALD RUTBERG
rollment of 20,000 by 1975, Dr. Philpott has made it clear
that his basic objective underlying all programs will be a
guarantee of excellence in facilities and staff.
The president lists five areas as top priority projects for
his administration. They include:
1. Building Program—"We are trying to give impetus to
the building program. We have $12 million from the state
bond issue and we hope to add $10 or $11 million more in
funds from other sources to put together in the next year a
$23 million . building program."
2. Organization of the University in Terms of the Ad­ministrative
Structure—"We've had a couple of resignations
since I've been here and this means we've got to find people
for those posts. We have some vacancies and before filling
some of these positions I've been required to do some study­ing
about the future of the University and how it can best
be organized."
3. Operating Budget—"This occupied time really before
I ever took over. Some additional problems have arisen
in day-to-day financing and how to meet these non-bud­geted
demands."
4. Alumni Contacts—"We've been quite concerned with
fund raising. Some contacts have been made and results
realized. There are checks on my desk now for $3500 and
$500 and we hope to continue this pattern."
5. Attention to Curriculum Matters—"We have been
placing emphasis in this area only in terms of exploring
and trying to find out what's here rather than trying to
think about any program for the future. We have under­way,
I've asked for it, and it's in process, a kind of overall
look at our class offerings, our faculty staffing pattern, our
method of operation. The idea here is that we're not going
to change something tomorrow, but we are seeing whether
or not we need to start considering the possibility of changes
next year."
As to a possible rise in tuition costs, Dr. Philpott said,
"I would imagine at some point, not next year, there would
be an adjustment in fees upward. I say this because it's
happened in almost every other institution in the United
States last year and Auburn is now at a fee rate which is
lower than most other institutions. We're $50 below the
University of Alabama for example. By saying this I don't
mean to imply that the decision has already been made,
but everything else is going up."
A possible increase in board prices may be necessary
next year because of the rise in food costs and wages, Dr.
Philpott said.
Dr. James R. Woodall, chairman of the Faculty Council,
in assessing current faculty sentiment regarding the new
president said, "I seem to sense a rising sense of optimism
on the faculty. A spirit of cooperation is developing rapidly.
In the beginning there was a 'wait-and-see' attitude on the
part of the faculty, but now it appears he's going to be an
outstanding leader. It's apparent that his goal is high
quality, and without sacrificing any standards to the state."
George McMillan, president of the Student Government
Association has said of Dr. Philpott, "I have a great deal of
respect for him. I think that any student leader could learn
a lot from working under a man such as him.
"Some people thought that when Dr. Philpott came here
that the student would have a greater voice than under Dr.
Draughon, but I actually don't think that, based on his first
60 days in office, there will be any noticeable change in
the way that Dr. Philpott believes in. working with students
and the way that Dr. Draughon believed in working with
them. By this statement I intone no negative connotations
as for the most part I was in agreement with Dr. Draughon's
policies. I think that Dr. Philpott has the proper concept

Nor is the voice of the stu­dent
the strongest authority in
higher education, Dr. Philpott
added. "The faculty must still
set forth curricula requirements
and guidelines for student gov­ernment."
Dr. Philpott asked for de­centralization
of authority from
the president's office through
deans and department heads
and outlined specific areas of
administration including travel
requests and student excuses.
Dr. .'Philpott, in advocating
"broad policies," said, "I don't
mean to tell everyone to go out

writing a policy for every mat­ter

continued. The faculty must
also have a voice in student
welfare and student programs.

Social Life Committee Created By Student Senate
By RON CASTILLE
A charter for a Student
Committee on Social Life
was a p p r o v e d Monday
night in a 10-4 vote of the
Student Senate.
The committee's purpose will
be to combine the responsibil-ties
of organizations dealing in
entertainment and student
social functions on the campus
and coordinate a program of
social activities to promote the
welfare of the Auburn com­munity,
according to Bill
Rainey, sponsor of the bill
which established the commit­tee.
The committee was chartered
to establish an advisory board
to President Philpott in approv­ing
entertainment on the cam­pus.
The committee was set up
after much adverse comment
was received by the President's
o f f i c e following the James
Brown Review, according to
Student Body President George
McMillan.
The duties of this new com­mittee
will be to govern the
Entertainment Fund and the
Social Fund of the Student Ac­tivities
Fee and to approve or
recommended the approval of
all entertainment sponsored by
organizations on the campus.
It will also draw up a tentative
social calendar for the year and
approve the dates of social
events and entertainment on
the campus, Rainey said.
The committee will be com­posed
of students and faculty
members including the Deans.

ACP FIRST-CLASS HONOR RATING
GIVEN LAST YEAR'S GLOMERATA
By JUDY SOUTHERLAND
The 1965 Auburn Glomerata
has been given a first class
competitive honor rating by the
Associated Collegiate Press, a
national organization w h i ch
grades the school papers and
yearbooks which are on a point
system submitted to it.
The Glomerata was rated
only 175 points away from an
ail-American score of 7,100
points, the highest score pos-isible.
The Glomerata was edited
last year by Skip Barker who
was cited on Honors Day for
his journalistic achievements
and received the Greenhill A-ward
for Journalism.
The judges commented that
"The Glomerata has excellent
art, color, and research cover­age.
Overall the combined pro­gress
in the past few years is
excellent—with continued good
work, the Glomerata should
soon tie at the top of the list."

Yesterday's Plainsman
By JUDY SOUTHERLAND
Fifteen Years Ago
Johnny Long and his nationally-famous orchestra
provided music for the I.F.C. homecoming dances in the
student activities building. B e s t selling records by
Long's orchestra included "In a Shanty In Old Shanty-town"
and "Blue Skies."
The Plainsman "Plainsmen" met the Glomerata
"Graft Wrave" in an annual football game as part of
the Homecoming activities. The "Plainsmen" were rated
as heavy favorites by the newspaper.
Ten Years Ago
The recently enlarged Auburn stadium seated 34,000
for the sell-out game with Mississippi State.
President Draughon returned to work after rest and
vacation prescribed by his physician after a mild heart
attack in mid-August.
Senators Lister Hill and John Sparkman headed the
Alabama congressional delegation which visited Auburn
to observe agricultural experimental work.
Five Years Ago
Vice President Richard Nixon scored a narrow vic­tory
over Senator John Kennedy in the presidential
poll on campus.
Ed Dyas' thirteenth field goal tied the National ca­reer
record as Auburn defeated Mississippi State 27-12.
DR. PHILPOTT RECOUNTS
HIS FIRST SIXTY DAYS
(Continued from page 1)
of the role of a student in a modern university. We, as
students, would be wise to follow his concept."
Dr. Philpott, an early riser and early retirer who does
not speak from prepared texts but prefers short outlines,
has let it be known to all that his "availability hours"
extend from 5:30 or 6:00 a.m. to 9 p.m. In most cases, the
president believes that whatever it is that occurs after the
latter hour, it can wait until morning for airing.
Passers-by the president's home were startled recently
to see a powder puff football game in progress. Many
were puzzled as to what group of co-eds could possibly
have taken the prerogative to play on the president's lawn,
much less get away with it.
Auburn's amused president soon explained to some of
his curious colleagues that his eldest daughter, Jean, a
junior at Auburn High school, had been elected captain of
the girls touch football team. And there just wasn't a better
place to play than on the lush grass surrounding the presi­dent's
home.
Dr. Philpott's wife, Pauline, has been involved in a
number of campus and community activities while the
youngest of the Philpott children, Cabell, 13, and Virginia,
10, have also adjusted to their new home and friends, the
president reports. The Philpott's eldest son, Harry Melvin,
Jr., is a junior at Yale.
Referring to his acceptance at Auburn and following
in the large footsteps of Dr. Ralph Draughon,- immediate
past president of the University, Dr. Philpott wisely said,
"I know it's kind of like a honeymoon. There are bound to
be some serious problems ahead for that is the nature of a
growing educational 'institution, but I'd like to keep the
honeymoon atmosphere alive as long as we can."
If the pace keeps up, the atmosphere may last forever.
Tom Huck sought scientific excitement
He's finding it at Western Electric
Ohio University conferred a B.S.E.E. degree on
C. T. Huck in 1956. Tom knew of Western Elec-tric's
history of manufacturing development. He
realized, too, that our personnel development pro­gram
was expanding to meet tomorrow's demands.
After graduation, Tom immediately began to
work on the development of electronic switching
systems. Then, in 1958, Tom went to the Bell Tele­phone
Laboratories on a temporary assignment to
help in the advancement of our national military
capabilities. At their Whippany, New Jersey, labs,
Tom worked with the W.E. development team on
computer circuitry for the Nike Zeus guidance sys­tem.
Tom then moved on to a new assignment at
W.E.'s Columbus, Ohio, Works. There, Tom is work­ing
on the development of testing circuitry for the
memory phase of electronic switching systems.
This constant challenge of the totally new,
combined with advanced training and education
opportunities, make a Western Electric career
enjoyable, stimulating and fruitful. Thousands of
young men will realize this in the next few years.

TWELVE IS A MAN Y-SPLENDORED THING
Today I begin my twelfth year of writing this column in
your campus newspaper.
These dozen years have passed like a dozen minutes. In
fact, I would not believe so much time has gone by except
that I have my wife nearby as a handy reference. When I
started this column, she was a mere slip of a girl—supple as
a willow bough and fair as the morn. Today she is gnarled,
lumpy, and given to biting the postman. Stall, I count my­self
lucky. Most of my friends who were married at the same
time have wives who chase cars all day. I myself have never
had this trouble, and I attribute my good fortune to the
fact that I have never struck my wife with my hand. I have
always used a folded newspaper, even during the prolonged
newspaper strike of 1961 in New York. During this journal-less
period I had the airmail edition of the Manchester Guard­ian
flown in daily from England. I must admit, however,
that it was not entirely satisfactory. The airmail edition of
the Guardian is printed on paper so light and flimsy that it
makes very little impression when one smacks one's wife.
Mine, in fact, thought it was some kind of game and tore
several pairs of my trousers.
But I digress. For twelve years, I say, I have been writ­ing
this column. That is a fact, and here is another: I shave
every morning with Personna Stainless Steel Blades. I bring
up Personna Stainless Steel Blades because this column is
sponsored by the makers of Personna and they are inclined
to brood if I omit to mention their products. '
...only fleeting
)' enthusiasm among
the coaches.''
Not, let me hasten to state, that it is any chore for me to
sing the praises of Personna—as you will agree once you try
this sharpest, smoothest-shaving, longest-lasting blade ever
devised by the makers of Personna Blades—now available
both in Double Edge and Injector style. Personna, always
the most rewarding of blades, today offers even an extra re­ward—
a chance to grab yourself a fistful of $100 bills from
a $100,000 bowl! The Personna Stainless Steel Sweepstakes
is off and running, and you're all eligible to enter. Visit your
friendly Personna dealer soon to pick up an entry blank
(void where prohibited by law).
And, by the way, while you're at your friendly Personna
dealers, why don't you ask for a can of Burma Shave? It
comes in Regular or Menthol; it soaks rings around any
other lather, and it's made by the makers of Personna.
But I digress. For twelve years, I say, this column has
been discussing, forthrightly and fearlessly, such burning
campus questions as "Should students be allowed to attend
first-hour classes in pajamas?" and "Should deans be re­tired
at age 25?" and "Should foreign exchange students be
held for ransom?".
Today, continuing the tradition, we take up the thorniest
academic problem of all: the high cost of tuition. Let me
tell you how one student, Lintel Sigafoos by name, solved
this problem.
Lintel, while still a boy in Straitened Circumstances,
Idaho, had his heart set on college, but, alas, he couldn't
afford the tuition. He applied for a Regents Scholarship
but, alas, his reading speed was not very rapid—only two
words an hour—and before he finished even the first page
of his exam, the Regents had closed their briefcases crossly
and gone home. Lintel then applied for an athletic scholar­ship,
but he had, alas, only a single athletic skill—balancing
an ice cream cone on his chin—and this, alas, aroused only
fleeting enthusiasm among the coaches.
And then he found the answer: he would get a student
loan! Of course, he would have to pay it back after gradua­tion,
but clever Lintel solved that, too: he kept changing
his major, never accumulating enough credits to graduate
until he was 65 years old. Then he repaid the loan out of his
Social Security.
Where there's a will, there's a way.

California Demonstrators
Will Protest Anything
By Mary Whitley
In California last week, demonstrators who
only days before had protested U. S. presence
in Viet Nam found vent for their fury in another field—the fight
for "dirty words, dirty thoughts, dirty talk."
Everyone has a word to say about the "trouble in California'"
just as they did on the Selma-to-Montgomery march or they will

Thank You; Welcome Back
It is with sincere pleasure that Au­burn
students welcome alumni and
friends to "the Loveliest Village" for
Homecoming 1965. Special recognition
goes to the classes of '15 and '25 who
are to be honored by the Alumni As­sociation
during the two days of festi­vities.
But, whether yours is the class of
'05 or '75 the glitter and excitement of
the occasion may well add you to its
list of enchanted.
For Auburn students this week-end
is one of showing their gratitude for
all you have done by making your stay
a pleasant one. We are proud of the
spirit, tradition and guidance which
you have lent Auburn. Because of
these we have reached university sta­tus
but, even more important, created
and institution which cannot be match­ed
in student warmness, sincerity, and
interest in fellow students.
Some of you may remember the
early cries of "War Eagle" or the foot­ball
players who were "all heart"—
win, lose or draw. Few cannot remem­ber
the dreams of a modern library,
up-to-date engineering labs, liveable
dorms, new fraternity houses, or a Stu.
dent Union which could fulfill the
needs of 12,000 students.
From all indications, the food situa­tion
is about the same—there just
seems to be more of it. For those who
could not pass English until spring
quarter, senior year, don't be dismayed.
A number with your somewhat du­bious
distinction still remain.
Dreams unfulfilled still hover over
the Plains but, the future is a shining
one. You and today's undergraduates
will determine what is to come for
Auburn.
For giving us the chance to come to
Auburn and for providing us tools by
which to study and work in order to
learn, we will always be grateful.
To you, old grads, a hearty wel­come,
"War Eagle" and thank you. It
is because of you that the Auburn
dream has become a reality.
Let's Face The Facts
Few people other than a Ku Klux
Klansman or two and an occasional
hate-monger can be pleased at the ac­quittal
of Collie Leroy Wilkins in his
Hayneville trial last week for the mur.
der of Mrs. Viola Luizzo.
But no matter how regressive the
Hayneville happenings may appear,
the fact that Atty. Gen. Richmond
Flowers spearheaded a valiant attempt
to get a conviction remains.
Fearing that this headline case will
evolve into a bitter diatribe against the
South, we hasten to note that what
happened in Hayneville could have
happened anywhere. But, it didn't.
The people of Hayneville, not Mrs.
Luizzo's assailant, have suffered the
slings and arrows of her death and the
same people will continue to brave the
assaults upon the Wilkins verdict. Wil­kins
won; they lost.
We feel that- time is over-due for
conscientious and responsible citizens
to stand up and be counted for they
An Objective Of Excellence
The first sixty days of a new uni­versity
administration have passed and
already the wheels of progress are be­ginning
to turn. The man behind the
whirlwind of activity is energetic ed­ucator
Dr. Harry M. Philpott.
He outlines as his basic objective a
guarantee of excellence in facilities
and staff. He is a determined and effi­cient
man. We have no doubts that he
will accomplish this goal.
Top priority projects of his admin­istration
include: an almost doubling
of the existing $12 million building pro­gram
by next year, reorganization of
the administrative structure of the uni­versity,
shaping up the operating bud­get,
expanding the program of alumni
contacts, and last but not least atten­tion
to the matters of curriculum.
Dr. Philpott has his work cut out
for him.
We wish him well.
A Sign 01 Maturity
News of Thursday's passage of the
proposal to establish an Auburn Uni­versity
radio station by raising the stu­dent
activity fee is heartening.
A little better than 62 per cent of
voting students endorsed the measure
with a vote of almost. 2-1. The student
radio station alone would make the
entire project worthwhile. The fact
that the 18 Student Government-spon­sored
activities may share in the pro­fits,
is icing on the cake.
It is rare that a group voluntarily
accesses themselves. When the cause is
a worthy one, and we believe this one
is, it is considered a sign of maturity.
A sign students are willing to do their
share in the building of Auburn.
We hope the Board of Trustees will
take note and subsequently approve
the proposed increase.
ville. But comments are never
so candid as those which come
from home. Last week at the
Associated Collegiate Press
Conference held in San Fran­cisco,
Californias talked frank­ly
about their problems and
what they had to say was quite
revealing.
It must be understood that
their universities have a slight­ly
different problem than we
experience — college dropouts
like school so well they just
"hang around." They find odd
jobs where possible, and ac­cording
to informants, "spend
most of their time loafing and
sponging."
The demonstration to this
type of student offers little
more than something to do:
"Sane" and concerned Cali­fornia
college editors show some
alarm, however, about the
seemingly more anxious ex-students
who declare: "We're
going to have a government
that truly represents us if we
have to create it ourselves."
The situation at the Universi­ty
of California at Berkeley was
"ripe for the 'picketing' " when
the vicious cycle began. Logical,
understandable co m p 1 ai n t s
were voiced by students: 1. the
problem with TA's (graduate
teaching assistants) and 2. the
difficulty of several hundred or
more students getting anything
out of a class so large that it
was being taught outdoors.
From what we could gather
the TA's biggest problem was
simply—there just seemed to
be so many of them. Students
felt that they were not getting
their money's worth and re­belled
at what they called "the
have been too long scolded for their sil­ences
and mis-deeds.
In Laurel, Miss, only last week, the
mayor jeopardized his political career
by urging his community to join forces
to battle Ku Klux Klan intimidation.
They are making progress. It is pos­sible
that our state could learn much
from their example.
On the west coast a battle is being
waged to expose communistic influen­ces
and ties in the world of the "ex­treme
left." They too, are progressing.
Perhaps our problem is confronta­tion
by similar battles but with little
practical experience in solving them.
With respect for justice and faith in
the jury system, we, too, shall progress.
What happened in Hayneville from
the killing to i t s verdict (right or
wrong) is not representative of any
state or any region.
The just will accept this fact. The
insecure and sensational will capitalize
on it.
poor teaching techniques of the
TA's." Problem two was slight­ly
more serious—the unbelieva­ble
number of students re­portedly
"relegated to the yard"
because of lack of classroom
space. (Estimates on the num­ber
of students in one class ran
as high as 300 but, for all the
protesting, all the tirades, and
all the talk we could not find a
person who knew the real
score on either claim.)
These same demonstrating
rebels have declared .time and
again that they aim to form an
alliance uniting ultra-liberals,
civil rights fighters, the peace
movements, and fighting young
rebels under direction of social­ist
leadership. But nobody list­ens.
They openly admit to
membership in the W. E. B.
DuBois Clubs. People will not
listen. The same young resistors
of authority bear witness to the
overlapping leadership of SNCC
and Students for a Democratic
Society with well known Social­ist
Youth organizations, and
this too falls on deaf ears.
These beatnik revolution­ists
could care less about the
war in Viet Nam and quite pos­sibly
would soon tire of their
"dirty words, dirty thoughts,
dirty talk" campaign if it were
allowed. They are not inno­cent
youngsters out having their
last "fling" before entering the
cruel world. They are maturing
but very dangerous individuals
who will cling to the "slickest
line" cast in their direction.
To prevent further violence,
their further actions should be
watched closely. They more
resemble criminals than cru­saders.
Innocence And Guilt . . .
The Case For Hayneville:
A Quiet Reconstruction
By Jerry Brown
The Lowndes County Courtroom is housed
i? a great two-story courthouse typical of
rural Alabama counties. A monument stands outside commemo­rating
Lowndes' sons who died in the Civil War.
The trial of Collie Leroy Wilkins, the man charged with kill­ing
civil rights worker Viola Liuzzo was nearing a climax. The
courtroom was crowded with j u r y ) p l a c e d t h e o p e n I a w b o o k
reporters, klansmen, civil rights b e f o r e t h e m > a n d b e g a n h is
sympathizers, patrolmen, and
local spectators — many of
whom were white haired
Lowndes people well past the
working age. The air was
tense as Art Hanes, former Bir­mingham
mayor and defense
attorney began his final plea to
the jury. He told the jury the
story of two goats-the scape­goat
and the Judas goat. The
Judas goat he said was FBI in­former
Gary Thomas Rowe and
the scapegoat klansman Wilk­ins.
He was eloquently typical
of the Southern lawyer. Dapper
in a collegiate suit and a striped
tie, he outlined the case for the
defense. There was no physical
evidence (fingerprints, etc.),
the two key witnesses—Rowe
and Leroy Moton, a Negro boy
who was with Mrs. Liuzzo at
the time of the murder—dis­agreed
on the make and model
of the car in which the murder­ers
were riding; Rowe's testi­mony
was partially impeached
because of disparity in time and
distance (Something was mur­mured
that he alledgedly tra­veled
100 miles in 15-30
minutes).
Then Attorney General Rich­mond
Flowers rose tall for the
state. He looked distinguished
in a dark fall suit with a blue
hankerchief in his pocket; his
red hair was parted near the
middle; his angular features,
and his deep booming voice
contributed to the atmosphere
as he began his plea:
"Gentlemen, I would like to
read you a verse from the
greatest Law Book of all—the
Bible. Affixing his black rim­med
glasses, he opened it to
the nineteenth chapter of Deu­teronomy
and read: "'. . . if
any man hate his neighbor and
lie in wait for him, . . . and
smite him mortally that he die
. . . then the elders of his city
shall send him thence, and de­liver
him into the hand of the
avenger of blood, that he may
die'."
Closing the Book, he opened
a law text and read the defini­tion
of a "true verdict" to the
fervent plea: "If you don't con­vict
this man, you may as well
lock up the courts, open the
jails, and throw away the
keys!" Then he reached in his
law book, ripped the page de­fining
"true verdict" out, slam­med
it to the floor and said, "If
you don't bring back a verdict
of guilty, the blood of this man's
sin will stain the very soul of
Lowndes C o u n t y for an
eternity!" And he gave the
twelve silent men a final, ling­ering
stare before he took his
seat.
That stare meant something.
Flowers said before the jury
returned he had no doubt there
would be an acquittal. (The
jury realized the evidence was
insufficient, although Flowers
didn't concede it.) But Flowers
and the jurymen knew that the
violent Klan must be ranked
with its brothers in extremity-the
Black Muslims and SNCC.
He knew that local people were
essentially responsible and fair.
"This has been a good court,"
he admitted. "It has been pre­sided
over by a learned judge,"
he said, "I had a job to do and
I did it."
There could be no conviction
on such shoddy evidence be­cause
our system of justice will
not allow it. This is good, but
it does not lessen the anguish
and frustration.
Flowers admitted that he
had received some "cold treat­ment"
in Hayneville but one
Lowndes Countian in the priv­acy
of her home said, "I can't
feel as hard toward Richmond
Flowers as some people do."
It is more than painful to see
the people in Hayneville, who
are so caught up in steeped
customs, good and bad, tram­pled
mercilessly. They are not
perfect but neither are they
gangsters who have no sense of
"Christian values." To most of
them the Klan is as abominable
as the Muslims, but the Klan
gathers the publicity and its
members are stereotyped as the
rule rather than the exception.

The Right Of Dissension
Is What We Fight For
By Don Phillips
Walter Lippmann, the national syndicated
columnist, has touched upon one of the more
painful reasons for the recent rash of draft card burning and
anti-Vietnam demonstrations.
"While the student demonstrations are quite evidently self-defeating,"
he wrote in a recent column, "They are a pathetic
reminder of what happens in a struct traffic should be jailed,
free country when responsible
debate is throttled down and
discouraged.
"The unhappy youths who
burn their draft cards are no
doubt misguided. But we must
not forget they come from a
nation which expects to under­stand
what its government is
doing, from a nation which is
not habituated to obedience and
to the idea that it must listen to
its superiors and not talk back."
Mr. Lippmann's argument
was that free debate in Con­gress
has been politically throt­tled
by the Executive branch
in its desire to run the show in
Vietnam and other trouble spots
"on its own.'
But the problem has a much
broader base than simply the
Congress of the United States.
Take, as just one instance, the
anti-Vietnam demonstrations in
Atlanta a couple of weeks ago.
A few young men, most of them
no doubt "misguided" as Mr.
Lippmann would put it, staged
a march in front of the Federal
Building downtown.
Before nightfall, they had
been heckled, spit upon and a
state investigation had been
ordered into their activities.
They burned no draft cards,
they staged no sit-ins. They
simply marched around, and
yet they were treated like trai­torous
social outcasts.
Why all the panicked com­motion
in a country which
prides itself on individual
thought?
Admittedly those who ob-and
those who publicly burn
draft cards should be pointedly
remainded that military service
is mandatory for our society's
protection.
But although public demon­strations
at this time are un­wise,
even the quiet kind, men
are dying in Vietnam to buy
even the demonstrators just
such rights. It seems patent­ly
unfair, but that's how de­mocracy
works.
Not only demonstrations, but
responsible debate is also
heatedly discouraged. Take
the case of J. William Ful-bright,
the Arkansas Senator
who is no novice in the field
of foreign relations. After a •
recent Senate speech condemn­ing
American policies in the
Dominican Republic, the Sena­tor,
was practically branded a
traitor by those who disagreed
with him.
This seems to be a common
tactic. Condemn the man and
don't engage in responsible de­bate
on the issues. Discourage
free discussion and even ban
those who advocate one side or
the other from our college
campuses. It is little wonder
that even the responsible dis­senters
sometimes take to the
streets.
In a time of war, certain re­strictions
must be placed on
the public, but free and re­sponsible
dissension is a sacred
right. We must be very careful
in this country not to throw
away the things our soldiers are
spilling their blood for.
Identity Needed . . .
University Must Maintain
Small Campus Climate
By Gerald Rutberg
During the next ten years Auburn Uni­versity
will be faced with the intangible
problem of maintaining its patented and proud 'small school at­mosphere"
in the face of a predicted enrollment of 20,000 by 1975.
Several super-sized universities have lately been brought low
by students fed up with being lost in a sea of necessary IBM>
cards and left without any feel
ing of identity.
These developments at other
major universities are of par­ticular
significance to us on the
eve of another homecoming, for
the first thing the Auburn grad
cannot be blamed any more
than Chicago can be blamed for
its criminals. One leading citi­zen
admitted, "We realize the
power of these new laws and
we are trying to adjust." But
it's not easy when they don't
get any help, especially with all
the Northern hawks and buz­zards
who smell fresh meat."
Men like Richmond Flowers
and people like the "quiet"
people in Hayneville that no
one ever gets a chance to hear
about are qualities of the high­est
order for any locality.
They are certainly not sur­rendering
to these second re-constructionists,
but they are
trying to "adjust" and to see
that justice is done.
This Hayneville trial will
stand as a fair example.
wants to know when he reaches
the campus is if that good 'ol
feeling of belonging is still
there.
Yes it is, honored alumnus,
but redoubled efforts on the
part of the administration and
future ranks of student lead­ers
are going to be necessary in
order for the Loveliest Village
to keep intact the kind of tra­dition
which other institutions
have lost through their own im­personality.
Students cannot survive on
standardized quizzes, audi­torium
classes and televised
lectures alone, for as recently
demonstrated they will react
unfavorably to the kind of edu­cation
which always begins with
a student number and ends
with a return-mail sheepskin.
Auburn has long been able
to supply its students with a
feeling of identity which allows
the newcomer to find a place
to hang his hat while on the
campus.
Now preparing to assume the
role of an educational giant,
This Homecoming . . .
Good Leadership
Engineers Change
On The Plains
Homecoming—that wonderful
time of football, mums, War
Eagles, and alums. Thousands
of old grads make the mass
movement to the Loveliest Cil-lage
for this annual festivity.
Each year and each Home­coming
bring comments of
"how much the old school has
c h a n g e d
since I was
here." Well,
Auburn has
changed a
l o t e v e ry
year. Great
change h as
taken place
in the 110
years since
its beginning
as the East
Ala b a m a
Male College. And it will con­tinue
to change. This fall, the
enrollment is at a record 12,000
students, but an estimated 20,-
000 are expected in 1975.
This increase in enrollment
necessitates a transition of Au­burn
from a small technical
college to a large university.
The legislature realized this
five years ago when they
changed the name to Auburn
University. But a name does
not make an institution. It is a
long tedious process to establish
a true university and still re­tain
some of the important
traits which make Auburn
unique.
This Homecoming there is a
great deal for which to rejoice,
regardless of the football scores.
Last year at this time, specula­tion
and hard feelings were
running high because of Presi­dent
Draughon's planned re­tirement.
We are now midway
in the first quarter under our
new President, Dr. Harry M.
Philpott.
Dr. Philpott came to Auburn
this September with an open
mind and open hands. He has
won the respect of his fellow
administrators, faculty, and
student, (body, with his willing­ness
to work. He has promoted
a spirit of cooperation which
surmounts any problem. He
moved into his Samford office
on the brink of a thirteen mil­lion
dollar expansion program
for university facilities. Plans
are being completed for a new
school of Commerce within the
next five years.
But we students are most in­terested
in the relationship
which Dr. Philpott has estab­lished
with our student govern­ment.
Apprehensive student
leaders, early this quarter,
heard the President use an
anecdote to sum up his posi­tion
with student government,
"I won't give no sass, and I
won't take no sass." Co-opera­tion
has already been shown
with the new Committee on
Social Life which has recently
been approved. In every in­stance,
Dr. Philpott has been
willing to discuss matters for
the proper prospective and con­clusion.
However, student government
doesn't have to take second
place to anyone this Homecom­ing.
Under the leadership of
Student Body President George
McMillan, more has been done
for the benefit of the students
than ever before. The idea of
group-centered leadership has
been the key concept this year,
with a place in student govern­ment
for every interested stu­dent.
The emphasis has been
placed on informing each stu­dent
as to just what his student
government is doing for him.
Under McMillan many pro­jects
have been carried out and
many more are in the planning
stages. These include the pro­posed
student radio station,
teacher evaluation, and aid for
traffic problem.
Yes, Auburn is truly on its
way. And this Homecoming,
it should be noted that great
steps are being taken by Dr.
Philpott and George McMillan.
Change at Auburn is in
capable hands.
Auburn must not be allowed to
lose its firm grasp on an asset
which the University of Cali­fornia,
in hindsight, would be
exceedingly glad to have.
No one is going to hold
Johnny's hand as he marches
through his four or more years
at Auburn, but let us take
positive steps to see that he is
not hustled through with a
cattle-prod by some distant re­corded
voice.
Auburn is more than a name.
Let's keep it that way.
The Faculty Speaks . .
The U.S. Supreme Court
Protects Basic Freedoms
By Dr. E. C. Williamson
Associate Professor of History
"Whoever attentively considers the dif­ferent
departments of power must perceive,
tnat in a government in which they are separated from each
other, the judiciary, from the nature of its functions, will.always
be the least dangerous to the political rights of the Constitution;
because it will be least in a capacity to annoy or injure them."
Thus Alexander Hamilton in
the Federalist Papers evaluated
the role of the United States
Supreme Court just after the
Constitutional Convention in
1787 and just before the Su­preme
Court became reality.
At this time the United States,
operating under the Articles of
Confederation, had no federal
courts. There was little or no
central authority. Such as ex­isted
was ineffectually wielded
by a weak Congress meeting
irregularly.
The Constitution changed all
this. Article Three in it pro­vided
for the establishment of
the Supreme Court. That the
Supreme Court became a strong
department of the federal
government was largely the
achievement of the greatest of
the chief justices: John Mar­shall.
It was inevitable that the
Supreme Court would hand
down decisions that would be
unpopular with presidents. The
first one .Marbury v. Madison,
in 1803 infuriated President
Thomas Jefferson by declaring
a federal law unconstitutional.
But the Supreme Court was
now henceforth the guardian of
the Constitution.
Only one other federal law
was voided before the Civil
War. In the Dred Scott slavery
case, Marshall's successor and
Jackson's appointee, Roger B.
Taney, held in a decision with
strong sociological overtones
that the sacrosanct Missouri
Compromise was unconstitu­tional.
Now the President,
James Buchanan, was pleased,
but the large antislavery seg­ment
of the population was up
in arms.
As in Marshall's and Jeffer­son's
time, the basic issue with
the Constitution remains the
same today. It is whether the
Constitution should be paper or
living. Should it be the blue­print
for the structure of a
government by law or should
it be merely a guide to be
cavalierly consulted by parvenu
politicians when it suits them?
Should the Constitution be re­ferred
to in the same vague
terms as history is when a poli­tical
leader argues, "History
proves . . . " History has proven
nothing in this instance, but
the speaker is emphasizing a
pet point.
The Constitution has always
been under attack, both from
those who openly have opposed
it, such as William Lloyd Gar­rison,
the abolitionist who pub­licly
burned it, and from those
who call themselves strict con­stitutionalists
but would set
local mores and customs and
states rights above the Con­stitution.
Then today there is
a new breed: those who seek
by extra-legal means to re­dress
political, economic and
social wrongs. They run the
danger of nullifying such gains
as they achieved in Brown v.
the Board of Education when
they make the courthouse
lawn, not the courtroom, the
place of decision. When the
Constitution is set aside, re­gardless
of the purpose,
there is a built-in inherent
danger. If a person can in­dividually
select such laws as
he may or many not obey, the
element of anarchy enters in.
The disrespect and violation of
the Eighteenth Amendment by
a large number of Americans
was a direct cause for the rise
of organized crime in the
twentieth century. On the
other hand, if the enforcers of
laws make a mookery of jus­tice
by themselves selecting
what laws shall be enforced and
on whom, the Constitution
then becomes as dead a docu­ment
as the Weimar Constitu­tion
under Hitler.
In our society, social, econo­mic,
philosophical and poli­tical
questions are cast in the
form of actions at law and
suits in equity. The Supreme
Court and the law profession
must deal directly with sub­stantive
problems of human liv­ing.
They must invade the
realm of the psychologists,
sociologists, educators, econom­ists
and bankers if the Con­stitution
is not to disappear into
a never-never land of abstract
technicalities and legal forms.
One of the problems of legal
training of today's attorneys has
been the over-emphasis on form
and detail. Far too many law­yers
have had a narrow legalis­tic
business administration-type
undergraduate training instead
of a broad liberal arts exposure.
In other words too little philos­ophy,
sociology, history and the
humanities, too much statistics,
business law and accounting.
Such training of the legal pro­fession
endangers the Consti­tution
as a living document. The
narrowness of those so trained
has led them to criticism that
has damaged the prestige of the
Supreme Court.
Since many of the issues that
the Supreme Court is called
upon to decide are highly con­troversial,
and because the
Supreme Court, like the Presi­dency
and Congress, is very
much in the public limelight, it
is not surprising that its de­cisions
invoke bitter public de­bate.
It must continue to hand
down decisions in controversial
areas as it responsibly inter­prets
the Constitution. In doing
so we continue to have ma­jority
rule, but the rights of
minorities and individuals are
protected by a dynamic far-seeing
court interpreting a fine
constitution.

Student Comments
On Evaluation
Editor, The Plainman:
The report in last week's
I'lainsman that an instructor
evaluation system is actually
being instituted was a long
awaited bit of news. That the
concept of student evaluation of
instructors is being so warmly
received by the faculty and ad­ministration
is quite encourag­ing,
albeit surprising. : Surely
the fact that Senators Castille,
Majors, Marks and Merritt have
put a lot of time and thought
into development of the project
is one of the factors contribut­ing
to its endorsement by facul­ty
and administration.
However, one part of the re­port
is confusing. It is pointed
out that individual ratings and
ranking will be returned to the
instructors who have been eval­uated,
but that no one else will
be allowed to see the reports,
in order to avoid "misuse of
the results." The article does
not point out, however, what
sort of "misuse" is meared.
Perhaps further explanation
would clear this up, but it could
be that one of the purposes for
that stipulation is to prevent
students who have yet to take a
course from knowing before
they sign up forjt how the in­structor
is rated by his former
students. It is probably feared
that some instructors who do
not do too well on the rat­ings
may have too few students
sign up for their courses, which
would cause them embarrass­ment.
Perhaps if the instructor

Roommates Cochran, Cody: Tiger Linebacking Scholars
John Cochran Makes All A's;
Still Starts At Linebacker Slot
By LARRY LEE
• Football players aren't sup­posed
to be scholars'. But John
Cochran doesn't know it.
Neither do Drs. Howard
Strong and Carl Benson. They
know football and classroom
excellence can go hand-in-hand.
John has shown them.
"When a boy plays college
football for three years and still
maintains the highest grade-point
average in the school of
engineering, such as John has,
I'm convinced the classroom
and gridiron h a v e formed a
happy partnership," says Dr.
Strong.
PRAISE FROM BENSON
His praise is echoed by Dr.
Benson. "John came to my class
with the reputation of a prom­ising
student," said the English
professor. "And I found it to be
well deserved. He is a very
bright, very solid, and above all,
a very willing-to-work stu­dent."
"John is one of the finest
linebackers we've ever had. We
were counting on him this year
and he came through for us,"
coach Ralph Jordan said.
How does a boy manage to
hold down a first team line-backing
position for Jordan and
at the same time perform so
well in class.
"Well," said the 21-year-old
Crossville, Ala. native, "I've
just always figured you should
do as well as you can — and
that's what I try to do."
Of course, he does have a few
habits that help him. One is
budgeting time.
STRETCHES DAYS
"John can squeeze more hours
out of a day than anyone I've
ever seen," said Dr. Strong, the
assistant to the dean for pre-engineering
s t u d e n t s . "He
strictly makes every h o ur
count."
Dr. Strong gave an example
of this.
"John was having trouble
with a course and asked me if
I could find him some help. So
I got in touch with a fellow
working on his doctorate in
physics who agreed to help
John for an hour or so.
"We rushed right over and he
and John worked about two
hours," continued Strong. "By
the time we got back to the
house it was 9:45 and I invited
John in for a cup of coffee.

Bill Cody Struggles To The Top,
Striving To Be On The Bottom
COCHRAN (31), AND CODY GANG UP ON THE SOUTHERNERS' VIC PURVIS
By GERALD RUTBERG
Bill Cody, Auburn's 1965 All-
America candidate, has made it
to the top of his football class
simply by being on the bottom
of everything.
Every pileup that is.
When the 6-1, 220-pound sen­ior
linebacker took the field for
Auburn in the fall of 1962 as a
heralded but unproven fresh­man
quantity, the Loveliest
Village was endowed with one
of the greatest arrays of col­legiate
gridiron talent in the na­tion.
Jimmy Burson, George
Rose, Tucker Frederickson and
Jimmy Sidle were already tic­keted
for greatness and stellar
professional careers.
ROOM FOR GOOD MAN

the top for a good man and
Cody, t h e Orlando, Florida
headhunter who has missed
only two games while at Au­burn
has added still another
superlative niche to Auburn's
growing list of standouts. . . .
Attempting to explain why he
gives o p p o n e n t s pre-game
nightmares and post-game blues
Cody says, "Out of 77 boys who
started when I was a freshman,
there are 13 left. That's what it
takes to play good football.
You have to want to play. You
don't even think about getting
hit. You can worry about the
bruises on Sunday morning."
COACHES AGREE
Head Coach Shug Jordan and
Defensive Coach Hal Herring
concur on Cody's talent and ex­treme
dedication to the game
Coach Jordan claims that his
defensive signal - caller "has
produced as fine an effort as
we've ever had here," while
Herring adds that "He (Cody)
has certainly given us four good
years of football which is quite
unusual in college football to­day
because of injuries and the
'let-down' factor. He's the kind
of guy who's going to be there
when the whistle blows."
Coach Jordan is in complete
agreement with Playboy Maga­zine
on their pre-season selec­tion
of Cody as an All-America.
"I think Bill is an All-America
defensive player. There's no
doubt of it in my mind. I
haven't seen as good a line­backer
since Lee Roy Jordan."
Cody, a member of Omicron
Delta Kappa and Squires, was
named to the All-SEC squad
following his sophomore and
junior campaigns and broke in
at Auburn with a spot on the
BILL CODY
Conference's all-frosh s q u ad
when he quarterbacked the
yearling Tigers to an undefeat­ed
season.
The 21-year-old physical ed­ucation
major has always en­joyed
great success against the
University of Florida, Satur­day's
homecoming opposition.
As a sophomore Cody intercept­ed
an errant Gator pass and re­turned
it 42 yards for a touch­down.
The runback iced the 19-
0 victory for the Tigers and
gave Auburn a 6-0 record and a
subsequent trip to the Orange
Bowl.
Besides the timely intercep­tion,
Cody recounts his other
most thrilling grid achievement
(See page 8, column 5)
Backed Into It . . .
ki­lt
was getting late Saturday night when we heard the news.
"Kentucky beat Georgia 28-10" the man said. We couldn't
help but chuckle when it dawned on us that Auburn had just
backed into the lead for the SEC title while losing to Southern
Mississippi 3-0. The Tigers now have a 2-3-1 record, and
an important conference record of 1-0-1. We expected to hear
a "we're number one" chant in the semi-crowded theatre,
but perhaps we were the only ones to take note of the fact that
we were number one in the family.
Georgia was the last unbeaten team in the SEC Saturday
evening, but then Rick Norton, Rick Kestner, Rodger Bird, and
friends took care of that—with a surprisingly easy 28 point
second quarter. Now everybody has a blemish of some sort
on their record, and Auburn's blemish is smallest of all.
About The Sports Arena
We've heard quite a lot about the new Sports Arena and
how it will seat 13,000 for basketball games and for those
concerts and speeches we have grown accustomed to watching
from the splintery, open-air stadium. Everybody knows about
that, but we don't know what the physical education taking
student is going to gain from this 4.5 million dollar beauty.
We decided to check into this after very accidentally sumb-ling
into an old friend who is employed by the Department of
Buildings and Grounds. This old classmate had a thick roll
of plans tucked under his arm for the new building. He
kindly unrolled them for us and we were amazed with what
we saw. Asking a few questions, we found that the man to
see for our information was coach Anthony "Sonny" Dragoin.
When we finally found coach Dragoin, he had plenty of
information on the complex for us. All of it was good too.
We are presently suffering through our last quarter of PE
and the thing that gripes us the most is the inadequacy of
the facilities in the present-day sports arena. We are forced
to wad our clothes into a basket which is roughly the size of a
bread box. Then we shower in a room with 20 showers, about
10 of which don't work. The new facilities for men will
feature 18-18-36 inch lockers in which clothes will hang.
Shower facilities are planned to provide one shower for every
five students (that means roughly 100 and today the whole
PE department boasts 28 in two dressing facilities).
Another thing which caught our eye was a plan to provide
clean PE gear for all students by means of rear entry lockers.
Presently the only people provided with this luxury are the,
varsity athletes. From personal experience, we know that
this is a very needed service.

Vann's Southern Squad
Stops Auburn Gridders
Playing as though Robert E. Lee himself was calling
the signals, the Southerners of the University of South­ern
Mississippi turned a second quarter field goal into a
3-0 victory over Auburn last Saturday.
Auburn mounted the first offensive drive of the day,
late in the second quarter. Af­ter
a Southern punt, the Tigers
began their drive from their
own 47-yard line. In 10 plays
they moved to the Southern 11-
yard line.
FIELD GOAL FALLS
From there kicking specialist
Don Lewis attempted a 28-yard
field goal, only to have it block­ed
by Southern linebacker Doug
Satcher.
"I feel that if we had made
that kick, things would have
been different, it would have
given us the needed lift," Coach
Jordan commented later. But
the kick wasn't good, a nd
Southern was soon to get its
needed break.
Following the blocked kick
Southern was held to no yard­age
in three plays and forced to
punt. However, Robert Fulg-hum
fumbled the kick and
Southern recovered on the Au­burn
30-yard line.
SOUTHERNERS STOPPED
Coach "Pie" Vann's South­erners
then drove down to the
Auburn four. With a third and
goal at the three-yard line, the
Southerners were foiled in their
touchdown attempt by a pen­alty.
They then dropped back and
George Sumrall kicked a 26-
yard field goal for the only
score of the game.
For Auburn fans the only ex­citement
of the second half oc­curred
when an avid War Eagle
supporter managed to steal the
Southern Rebel flag. Certainly
the excitement was about nil
on the playing field.
Possession was the key to the
second half as Southern Miss
attempted to hold its lead. Au­burn
was able to hold .the ball
for only 31 plays, while South­ern
was able to run 46 offen­sive
plays.
Southern twice punted on
third down to give Auburn the
ball and rely on their defense to
stop Auburn. For the most part
they were very successful in do-
;ng this.
The nation's third most win­ning
coach Thad "Pie" Vann
spoke later, "Our offense and
our defense played their hearts
out to beat a SEC team, and I'm
proud to beat a team like Au­burn."
The victory marked the sec­ond
University of Southern
Mississippi w i n over Auburn.
Southern's previous v i c t o ry
came in 1947.

Bullpups Use Correct Ingredients,
Whip Up Victory Over Plainsmen
By ALAN HINDS
Georgia's freshman team
blended strong running, a
double portion of passing,
and a rugged defense in the
Athen's Bulldog Bowl to
whip up a 24-0 victory over
Auburn's Tiger Cubs Mon­day
afternoon.
In gaining their first win
over Auburn since 1957, the
Bullpups took advantage of an
early Tiger miscue for a.quick
touchdown and marched 63, 70,
and 55 yards for their other
scores.
The young Bulldogs recover­ed
Auburn's fumble on the
opening kickoff, and with 58
seconds gone in the game, David
Volpitto flipped an eight-yard
scoring pass to Sandy Johnson.
TIGERS STALL
Auburn then moved to Geor­gia's
35 on Tim Christian's
running alid passing. A third-and-
seven pass failed and the
Tigers had to kick. The Bull­pups
came back to score on a
23-yard field goal by Ron Hug-gins.
. . •-
The Baby Tigers again could
not move the ball, punted, and
the Georgia frosh started for
their second touchdown. Seven­ty
yards away. Auburn threat­ened
just before half time but
fell short at Georgia's 23.
Georgia led 17-0.
Late in the third quarter, the
Bullpups caught Auburn's de­fense
down again as Jeff Cot­ton
sprinted for a 27-yard
touchdown. In the last period
Auburn and'Georgia exchanged
kicks as neither team had a
sustained drive.
NO HEROES
There are no 'heroes' in a 24-
0 defeat, however, Coach Hay-ley
commented on the "fine de­fensive
play" of game captain
Ron Yarbough, a guard from
Columbus, Georgia. On offense
it was Bobby Wilson, a swift
170 pounder from Pensacola,
Fla., that drew praise from the
Tiger Cub's coach.
Don Matthew of Tarrant con­tinued
his impressive punting,
averaging over 35 yards per
kick.
Auburn is 0-2, dropping their
first game to the Florida frosh
15-9.
"We've started hard work to
get ready for Mississippi State,"
coach Hayley said. The Auburn
frosh travel to Starkville next
Friday.
NORTON'S YARDAGE

'65 season completed, Ken­tucky's

Homecoming Opponent
By BOB TOM SNELLGROVE
In 15 years as Auburn's head coach, Ralph Jordan has
lost but one homecoming game. Today, Ray Graves'
Florida eleven is a one to six point favorite to make it
two Saturday afternoon before an overflow crowd.
Cliff Hare Stadium has been unfriendly to the Gators
throughout t h e series. The
Gainesville eleven is s t i ll
searching for win number one
in the unfriendly confines of
the Tigers' stadium. The Plains­men
have lost but five games
on the home field since 1952—
and none was a homecoming
game.
Two of the home losses have
occurred this season making the
48,000 seat stadium a bit more
cozy than usual for the oppos­ing
team.
REST A WEEK
The Gators come into the
game after a week lay-off hop­ing
to match last year's 14-0
victory over Auburn.
Led by quarterback Steve
Spurrier, end Charles Casey,
and defensive specialist Bruce
Bennett, the Florida squad has
grown progressively stronger as
the season has moved along.
They have previously defeated
Northwestern, Louisiana State,
Ole Miss, and North Carolina
State, while losing to Missis­sippi
State.
Spurrier. Southeastern Con­ference
Sophomore of the Year
in 1964, is an exceptional signal
caller whose biggest asset, his
coaches believe, is his poise and
ability to react to pressure and
changing • situations.
OFFENSIVE TOTAL
Last year he completed a to­tal
of 65 passes out of 114 at-ternp^
s,,for a percentage of .574.
These,,tosses covered 943 yards,
UHAKL.K.S CASuY
and combined with his rushing
yardage gave him a total of­fense
of 1089 yards for the 1964
season.

Sixteen Teams Unbeaten
In Third Week Of Play
By DON SCOTT
Sixteen teams in eight
leagues remained undefeat­ed
as i n t r a m u r a l play mpv-ed
into its third week of
action.
FRATERNITY PLAY
LEAGUE 4
The week's cliff-hanger fea­tured
SAE tangling with KA.
Midway in the last frame
SAE followed up an intercep
tion at midfield with a bomb
to the KA 10. The pass was
knocked down but KA was
called for interference and it
was all up to the big KA de­fense.
This time the secondary came
through as the next SAE pass
fell into KA hands in the end
zone.
On the last play of the fourth
quarter KA passed to the SAE
15 but time ran out. This threw
the game into sudden death,
0-0.
KA won the toss and thusly
gained possession of the ball
first. KA threw three incom-

assignment for Monday. What
really impressed me was that
this was Thursday night and
most students don't really take
library science too serious—but
not John."
Needless to say, he made A's
in both courses, just as he has
in all but three since enrolling
in 1962. These, two English and
one engineering drawing course,
accounted for two only B's on
his record.
B'S ARE OK
"This is another thing," said
Dr. Strong, "John has never
complained about a professor or
those B's."
"Why should I," grinned
John, "I was sorta glad to get
those B's in English."
Also behind John's outstand­ing
grades is the fact that'he
has never bad an unexcused"ab-sence
from class. This is a rec­ord
that few—if any—other stu­dents
can claim.
ODK MEMBER
All this work hasn't gone un­recognized,
however. John is a
member of ODK, senior men's
honorary; Tau Beta Pi, engi­neering
honorary and Phi Eta
Sigma, freshman men's honor­ary.
He was also chosen a mem­ber
of the 19G4 All-SEC Aca­demic
football team.
With all these achievements,
it would seem unlikely that
there is any goal that J o hn
hasn't managed to reach, but
there is one—a goal line.
"I've never scored a touch­down
at Auburn and sure
would like to," he grinned.
But t h e n there's a lot of
touchdown m a k e r s who've
never made all A's.

plete passes and on fourth down
SAE's Roddie Broach broke into
the backfield to throw the KA
back for a 13 yard loss.
It was then SAE's job to not
lose 13 yards. The first two
plays saw the SAE QB, John
Broderick, fall on the ball. SAE
had the same thing in mind for
the third down when KA jump­ed
off side to clinch the game.
AGR bounced back from last
weeks defeat to PDT to trounce
DSP 39-6.
Meanwhile league leading Phi
Delta Theta removed one more
obstacle toward gaining the
League Four title in a special
way—unscored upon. PDT de­fense
stifled LCA while Hugh
Sparks intercepted one pass and
ran it all the way, then later
threw a pass for another six
points. Final score, PDT 13,
LCA 0.
LEAGUE 3
League three has two teams
undefeated as SN (2-0) handed
PGD its second straight loss
27-0. In other action Alpha Psi
beat BTP 32-0 and PKP (2-0)
beat OTS (1-1) 12-7.
LEAGUE 2
Delta Chi, Delta Upsilon, and
Alpha Tau Omega all made it
two straight wins last week as
they split the league into two
brackets. DC defeated PKA 13-
2, DU took KS 6-0 in a squeak­er,
and ATO rolled over SPE
39-0.
LEAGUE 1
Phi Kappa Tau seems a sure
bet to cop the league title again
this year as it thumped Theta
Chi, its toughest competition
19-13. All three PKT TD's were
passes from Billy Ray Hatley
as TC pulled every trick in the
book to end PKT's reign—all to
no avail.
Elsewhere Sigma Chi stopped
Sigma Pi 12-0 and TKE moved
into the win column by drub­bing
TX 20-0.
INDEPENDENT
The season was only two
games old last week for League
Four. Already, however, power
shirts have developed.
Powerful Trailer Park squar­ed
off against an explosive
Navy team.
The first half saw four ex­changes
of possession before
Ernie Stevenson threw to Ken
Wetzel to push the Swabbies
out in front, 6-0.
Fireworks siaried in the sec­ond
half as Ernie Payne threw
to Red Hand for six points the
first time TP gained possession.
Trailer Park then converted to
move one up on Navy 7-6.
With two minutes left Trailer
Park had the ball and flicked
two short passes to eat up the
clock. The pass of note, how­ever,
fell into Navy hands and
Navy was in business on the
TP 15.
Two plays later Navy's Dave
Reese and a TP defender went
up for a pass in the end zone
and both came down it. Mutual
possession goes to the offense,
however, and Navy was on top
12-7.
In a desperate long bomb,
Trailer Park threw deep to its
favorite end, but time ran out
as TP was caught on the Navy
three, Red Hand-ed.
The Hawks made it two in a
row also as the phantom team
whipped Caldwell House 26-12.

McWaters was followed across
the finish line by Dan Storey,
David Bruce, Gator Williams,
Bob Vickery, Larry Lee and
Mickey Collier.
TOOK FIFTH PLACE
In last Saturday's Calloway
Gardens Invitational Meet, the
harriers took fifth place honors
in the 12 team field.
McWaters again led Auburn,
followed by Williams, Storey,
Vickery, Dixie Foster, Bruce
and Ralph Blaine.
"I still believe we have prob­ably
the strongest team ever
fielded by Auburn," said Rosen,
"we're just running into some
first-rate cornpetitipn.". ( ,
The Florida meet, scheduled
for 10 a.m. on the Auburn

FSU team.

Casey, Florida's "Lonesome

of most of Spurrier's passes.
Last year he set school records
for receiving and only missed
setting a new conference mark
because of an injury.
BENNETT CAPTAIN
Another pre-season All-A­merica
pick is defensive safety
Bennett. Senior Bennett is the
Gator defensive captain and has
been his usual outstanding self
this year.
MISSING TIGERS
Several key Tiger gridders
will be lost via injuries for
Saturday's game.
Offensive l e f t guard Mike
Davis pulled back muscles in
the Southern Mississippi game
and is also a doubtful starter.
Another sophomore, Ken Jones
will handle the guard chores if
necessary.
In the offensive backfield,
wingback Jim Bouchillon has a
bruised hip and is still not run­ning
at top speed. Junior Carl
Hardy is the likely replacement
there. Harrison McGraw is still
limping with an injured ankle
and will not be at top form.
DEFENSIVE LOSSES
Defensively, junior s a f e ty
Bobby Beaird is a doubtful par­ticipant.
Senior Don Lewis will
replace Beaird. Also in the de­fensive
backfield, right sideback
Franklin Fuller broke a bone
in his hand at practice Monday
and will definitely miss t he
homecoming clash. Fuller's spot
will probably be filled by
Bucky Ayers or Robert Fulg-hum.
Both are sophomores.
Detersive end Bogue Miller
has a bruised kidney, suffered
in the Southern Miss game and
will miss the Saturday game.
Marvin Tucker, a 5-9, 190

end position.

as "just having a chance in 1964
to play with a bunch of guys on
a team that was number one
on defense in the country. It's
a thrill to know that you are
playing with the best. We're
always out there as all men
and it takes everyone of us
working together as a team to
win."
As to his professional football
potential Coach Herring says,
"If he gets up around 225 he
should be able to play," and
Coach J o r d a n says Cody
"wouldn't know any other way
but to be dedicated to whatever
pro team he plays for. He's a
student of the game — thinks
about his football and studies
it. I think he'll be successful
in pro football."
Even the best make errors
and Cody admits that "The big
gest mistake I've ever made on
the ball field is making so many
mistakes that I can't count them
all."
Roger Bird Kentucky's stel­lar
halfback, gets cody's nod as
"the one player who has given
Auburn more trouble than any­one
else I've played against."
Joining Bird on Cody's list of
least favored —• most trouble­some
opponents at their respec­tive
positions are Joe Namath,
Kim King, Steve DeLong, Jim
Wilson, Steve Bowman and
Hoyle Granger.
Coaches J o r d a n , Herring,
Vince Dooley, Jim Wiggins,
Jack O'Brien, Jim Heise and
Roger Thomas are credited most
by Cody with having tutored
him to the top of his calling.
The latter four instructed Cody
in his junior and senior high
school playing days helping to
produce one of the hottest re­cruiting
battles in Central Flor­ida
history.
An All-America for William
R. Boone High School in Or­lando,
the rib-rocking halfback,
safetyman, punter and place-kicker
gained national acclaim
for his rugged style of play. In
his final prep contest, Cody,
who had not missed a game was
injured shortly before half time
and left the contest with the
score 0-0. The final score was
42-26 with Cody's team on the
bottom.
Excelling in the classroom at
a pace equal to his grid achie­vements,
Cody has maintained
a "B" average and was named
to the 1964 Scholastic All-
America squad. His roommate
John Cochran, (who is featured
in another story appearing in
this edition) a near all-A stu­dent
and compatriot linebacker
is credited by Cody with "cre­ating
a good atmosphere for
studying. When it's time to
study, it's real easy to do so."
Of Cody, Cochran says, "He's
a good oP boy. He is sort of
hard to get to know, but I guess
I know him about as well as
anyone. He's always got some­thing
to do. Bill is what you'd
call one of these natural-born
leaders." The two have been
roommates since their first
quarter in school.
Cody has also been able to
enjoy other special aspects of
the Auburn campus. As more
than a fraternity brother in
name only and for the rush bro­chure,
Cody is frequently found
at the Kappa Alpha house and
when his rigid schedule permits,
he participates in the chapter's
varied activities. His grand­mother
was the first KA house­mother
when the KA's moved
to their present College Street
home in 1939.
His dad, an Auburn alumnus,
is currently on assignment with
the Air Force in Vietnam and
has not had an opportunity to
see his son play in over a year.
While Col. Cody is stationed in
Asia, the Cody family is living
in Selma where Bill's grandpa­rents
have lived for many years.
There are two younger Cody
brothers, Gene, 12, and David,
9, who have given promising
performances in youth league
play. Gene, a Boy Scout, fre­quently
comes to Auburn on
Saturdays to serve as an usher
with his fellow troop members
at the game.
Mrs. Cody has seen her son
play on several occasions and
the remainder of the family lis­ten
to the Auburn games broad­cast
on radio.
By sundown Saturday Cody
will have played his last game
in Cliff Hare Stadium and the
shadows following Bill off the
turf will be left to tell again
the story of how a man makes
it to the top by starting on the
bottom.

The arena will give us a dance studio, moving the dancing

Childress Still Playing
From New York To San Diego,
Former Tiger Greats Now Pros
By LARRY LEE
To be a "play for pay" foot­baller
takes a good deal of
natural athletic ability, plus a
lot of determination, and a
background of excellent coach­ing.
Eighteen f o r m e r Auburn
players obviously have combin­ed
the three—because they've
all found a place in pro ranks.
Both ends off Auburn's 1957
national championship team are
still active in pro ball.
END PHILLIPS
Left end Jimmy "Red" Phil­lips
was an All-America at
Auburn and became one of the
National Football League's out­standing
pass catchers. He led
the NFL in pass receiving in
1961 and has been an all-pro
three times. Phillips is currently
with the Minnesota Vikings.
Right end Jerry Wilson is
now footballing Canadian style
with the Toronto Argonauts.
Jackie Burkett, another mem­ber
of the '57 champs, is a first
team linebacker for the Balti­more
Colts. He was an All-
America selection in 1958-59.
OLDEST REPRESENTATIVE
Joe Childress is Auburn's
oldest representative in the pro
leagues. Childress, a 1955 All-
America and twice the most
valuable player in the Gator
Bowl, is a halfback with the
St. Louis Cardinals.
Keeping the "old pro" of the
Cards company is defensive
back Jimmy Burson and rookie
center-linebacker Mike Alford.
Burson was a standout Auburn-ite
in 1962, while Alford finish­ed
in 1964.

8 States Can See Clash
Sports Spectacular
By DAVID HOUSEL
Football fans in eight states
will see the Tigers and the
Florida Gators battle in Satur­day's
h o m e c o m i n g game.
Thirty-eight television stations
in Alabama, Tennessee, Florida,
Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas,
Arkansas, and Oklahoma will
broadcast the game regionally
for the National Broadcasting
Company's NCAA F o o t b a l l
Game of the Week.
Jim Simpson and Bud Wil­kinson
are slated to announce
the game. Simpson will do the
play-by-play while Wilkinson,
former coach at Oklahoma, will
do the color and game analy-zation.
Dick Weinberg will di­rect
the telecast.
HERE IN JUNE
Preparations for televising the
game were started last June
when an NBC crew came to
Auburn to conduct a survey of
Cliff Hare Stadium. The pur­pose
of the study was to deter­mine
where cameras should be
placed and just what technical
equipment would be needed.
Five cameras will be used to
televise the game. Two will be
placed in the West Stands on
about the 25 yard line on the
top row of the stadium. Two

press box while the fifth will
be mounted on a truck that will
travel the sidelines. jj
Special stands will have to be
constructed for the cameras on
the West Stands. The stands
will take up the width of five
seats and will be approximate­ly
four rows deep. Mr. Milton
Thurston, equipment custodian
for the Athletic Department,
is in charge of constructing
these stands.
DESIGNED FOR TV
Very little work was requir­ed
to get the press box ready
for televising a game since it
was designed with television in
mind. Pulleys that will hoist the
TV cameras into position, and
a few minor electrical changes
were all the necessary changes
according to Sports Information
Director, Buddy Davidson.
NBC will send a total force
of about .50 men to work for
the game's televising. The tech­nical
crew will arrive in Co­lumbus
Friday night and come
into Auburn early Saturday

The announcers will arrive at
Auburn Thursday and spend
the days prior to the game wat­ching
films of Auburn and
Florida, familiarizing themsel­ves
with the teams, their per­sonnel,

PREP FOR SHOW
Approximately two hours be­fore
kickoff, the announcers
will go to the press box to work
out all final details for the
show.
Since the game will be a re­gionally
televised affair, there
will be no films of campus
scenes made.
This will be the first time
that a game has been televised
from Cliff Hare Stadium. The
Tigers most recent television
appearance was last year's
game with Alabama. In recent
years the Tiger's games with
Tennessee (1958) and Nebraska
in the Orange Bowl in 1964
have been televised.

Let's talk about a career at Boeing...
50-year leader in aerospace technology
Campus Interviews Thursday and Friday, November 4 and 5
The most effective way to evaluate a com­pany
in terms of its potential for dynamic
career growth is to examine its past rec­ord,
its current status, and its prospects
and planning-for the future, together with
the professional climate it offers for the
development of your individual capabilities..
Boeing, which in 1966 completes 50 years
of unmatched, aircraft innovation and pro­duction,
offers you career opportunities as
diverse as its extensive and varied back­log.
Whether your interests lie in the field
of commercial jet airliners of the future or
in space-flight technology, you can find at
Boeing an opening which combines profes­sional
challenge and long-range stability.
The men of Boeing are today pioneering
evolutionary advances in both civilian and
military aircraft, as well as in space pro­grams
of such historic importance as
America's first moon landing. Missiles,
space vehicles, gas turbine engines, trans­port
helicopters, marine vehicles and basic
research are other areas of Boeing activity;
There's a spot where your talents can
mature and grow at Boeing, in research;
design, test, manufacturing or administra­tion.
The company's position as world
leader in jet transportation provides a
measure of the calibre of people with
whom you would work. In addition, Boeing
people work in small groups, where initia­tive
and ability get maximum exposure.
Boeing encourages participation in the
company-paid Graduate Study Program at
leading colleges and universities near
company installations.
We're looking forward to meeting engi­neering,
mathematics and science seniors
and graduate students during our visit to
your campus. Make an appointment now
at your placement office. Boeing is an
equal opportunity employer.

SEC Wrap-Up ...
Duhon Goes On Warpath
As Tulane Stops Maroons
By EDWIN TEW
When Tulane decided to
make this its last year as a
member of the SEC, many
of the Greenies' alumni
were pleased. They had
grown tired of being the
conference's doormat.
If Bobby Duhon stays on the
warpath, alumni of other SEC
schools may also be glad Tu­lane
pulled out.
The sensational sophomore,
taking over Tulane's quarter-backing
chores in the Green
Wave's third game, has passed
the Greenies to upset victories
over Miami and Mississippi
State, and threw a scare into
Georgia Tech before losing 13-
10.
Mississippi State took a 7-0
lead Saturday on Marcus Rho-den's
70-yard punt return, but
Duhon's passing quickly wiped
out the deficit. He fired a 36-
yard scoring strike to Lanis O'-
Steen, and then threw a 26-
yarder to Mike Fitzpatrick to
put Tulane ahead 14-7.
Tulane drove 61 yards to get
into position for Pontius's de­cisive
field goal, and three Du-hon-
to-Fitzpatrick passes cov­ered
60 of these yards.
TEWS FEARLESS FORECAST
Florida has been consistently
good, while Auburn has been a
mystery from week to week.
FLORIDA 14, AUBURN 10.
The Crimson Tide keeps get­ting
better, but State appears to
be getting worse. ALABAMA
24, MISS. STATE 7.
Ole Miss should be at their
best against LSU, but that may
not be enough to stop Nelson
Stokeley and Joe Labruzzo.
LSU 17, OLE MISS 7.
Kentucky 31, W. Virginia 21
Tulane 10, Vanderbilt 7
Georgia 24, N.C. State 14
All-America candidate Steve
Bowman led a crunching Ala­bama
ground game as the Tide
ruined Florida State's bid for a
second straight upset with.a 21-
0 victory.
Bowman, the SEC's leading
rusher, set up the Tide's first
touchdown with a 43-yard
sprint to the FSU seven, and
finished as the game's top run­ner
with 88 yards in 16 carries.
Alabama took a 7-0 first
quarter lead, driving 50 yards
in five plays with Les Kelly
scoring from the one. Steve
Sloan's 46-yard pass to Tommy
Tolleson sparked an 81yard
Alabama drive in the second
period, with Sloan getting the
touchdown from two yards out.
Kenny Stabler galloped 28
yards to the FSU one-yard line
on a fake field goal to put the
Tide into position for its last
touchdown. Kelly scored on the
next play.
'TTJCKY ROMPS
Kentucky exploded for 28
points in the second quarter
behind Rick Norton's passing
to hand nationally tenth-ranked
Georgia its second straight de­feat,
28-10.
Georgia took a 3-0 lead on
Bob Etter's 33-yard field goal
in the first quarter, and made
it 10-0 before the quarter end­ed
on Kirby Moore's five-yard
scoring run.
Norton's 14-yard pass to Rick
Kestner put Kentucky on the
scoreboard, and Roger Bird's
six-yard scoring run put the
Wildcats ahead 14-10.
Norton passed 44 yards to
Bird for the Wildcats third six-pointer,
and then, following a
Georgia fumble less than a min­ute
later, he fired a 22-yard
scoring strike to Larry Seiple.
The Wildcat quarterback fin­ished
the day with 11 comple­tions
in 19 attempts for 187
yards.
LSU WINS
South Carolina matched Lou­isiana
State for slightly more
than two quarters, but the
ninth-ranked Bengal T i g e rs
struck for two second half
touchdowns and a 21-7 victory.
Sophomore quarterback Nel­son
Stokely's 16-yard scoring
pass to Joe Labruzzo gave LSU
a 7-0 halftime advantage, but
South Carolina's Senter tied it
by rambling 12 yards for a
touchdown with a blocked LSU
punt.
Danny LeBlanc's one-yard
plunge, set up Stokely's 45-yard
pass to Doug Moreau, moved
