'Players' To Present
Picture Of Woman
By ODESSA McDUFFIE
Tracing the American woman,
and changes in social status from
Adam and Eve to the present
day, "The American Dame" is
soon to be presented by the Au­burn
Players. Written by Phillip
Louis, and directed by Robert
Knowles, "The American Dame"
will be presented at the Player's
Theater July 29, 31 and August
1, 5, 7, 8 at 8:15 p.m. It will also
be presented six times for fresh­man
orientation.
Sue Davis, Auburn; A n ne
Hackworth, a graduate from Bir­mingham;
Ha Cheney, Auburn;
Kelly Collum, Auburn; and Brad
Pendell, Auburn, will be the prin­cipal
actors in "The . American
Dame." The performance, term­ed
as a "playout," is one in which
actors announce a theme and
then play it out.
With the simplest of props and
snatches of costumes, a hat. or a
collar perhaps, the player re­sumes
a variety of characters in
many situations to dramatize the
theme. There is no scenery, only
lighting. The idea in its entirety
is to give the audience the plea­sure,
of watching actors act, and
to make ideas amusing.
Tickets may be obtained in the
old Military Office by presenting
Auburn ID cards.
NOTICE
The Auburn Union will sponsor
a dance featuring the "Cordials"
on the Union patio tomorrow night
from 7:30 to 10:00. All students
are invited. Special guests for the
evening will be prospective Au­burn
freshmen on campus for
orientation.

Debaters Conduct-
Problem Research
By BARBARA GILMORE
The Auburn Debate Team is
conducting research into four
problem areas, one of which will
be selected as the national official
debate proposition for 1964-65,
according to Richard Rea, debate
team coach. The four debate
propositions were taken from the
general subjects: United States
Foreign Policy, United States
Economic Policy, International Af­fairs,
and United States Govern­ment
Structure and Political
Philosophy.
Bloodmobile To Visit
Campus Next Tuesday
The Red Cross Blood Mobile
will be in operation at the Auburn
U n i o n Ballroom on Tuesday,
July 28, from 10 a.m. to 12 noon,
and from 1 to 5 p.m. The quota
set for this visit is 150 pints.
P. C. Vaughan Jr., Auburn
Blood Program chairman, states
that the blood shortage is critical
this summer, and the Birmingham
Blood Bank is short several thous­and
pints. The supply is now at
an all-time low. He urges that
Auburn citizens and university
students come out that day and
give a pint of blood.
Every person who donates a
pint of blood is given a card en­titling
him and' his immediate
family, his parents, and his in­laws
to a free supply of blood for
a period of eight months. This
card is good in any hospital in the
United States.
During 1963, more than 90,000
pints of blood were used by 66
counties in the Alabama-Missis­sippi
district.

the same kind of direct, fast and
personal telephone service at the
University that one would have
at home," Robison said.
DIRECT DIALING
Robison, describing the system,
said its operation will require
only one attractive desk-model
console. Outside calls to the Uni­versity's
official number will be
answered and completed to the
desired person by the attendant.
The calling party will then be
informed that future calls may be
dialed direct. All outgoing calls
may be dialed direct, and intra-system
calls will not require aid
from an attendant.
The new console, unlike the
usual switchboard, is immediate­ly
free to handle another call af­ter
connection, regardless of the
number of telephone in use at
the time.
OTHER ADVANTAGES
Other advantages of the new
Centrex system were pointed out
by Robison. The University will
receive only one monthly bill on
which all changes, installation
and removal of equipment, and
charges will be itemized by station
numbers. T h e Southern Bell
equipment automatically records
all long distance calls which are
itemized by station, date, and cost
on the bill. With this method,
there would be no restriction on i
the use of any telephone, and all
stations would be available for
service around the clock with
complete billing control, he add­ed.
The modern flexible system is
designed specifically for Auburn
University to meet the present
and future communications re­quirements
of the entire campus.
The University will benefit by
better service, simplified account­ing,
and administrative savings,
Robison added.

Historic Samford Boasts Interesting Past
As Confederate Hospital, Gymnasium
By NANCY McKENNY
Yes, Auburn was always the
topic of conversation at the house
before Grandpa died. He would
sit for hours telling all who came
to visit about the 'Main Building',
which housed the six-member
faculty and the only five graduates
in his senior class. Of couse, his
was the first to graduate.
One of Grandpa's favorite
stories concerned the burning of
the 'Main Building' in 1877. At
that time, this building was all
there was of Auburn. Some of
Grandpa's friends who had re­mained
in Auburn during the Civil
War years remembered when the
school had been closed and had
been converted into a Confederate
hospital. Jjgjcording to these old
timers, th^gKWould never be any-think
like.pt The gigantic struc­ture
was TOnsidered, almost rev­erently,
the most impressive fea­ture
in the state. Through benefits
of insurance and generous appro­priation
from the legislature, con­struction
was begun on what is
now called "Samford Hall."

S/'x Professors Visiting
In Secondary Education
By PEGGY TOMLINSON
Dean Michael C. Huntley, Dean
of Faculties, announces the addi­tion
of six visiting professors for
the summer in the field of educa­tion.
The professors, each a spec­ialist
in his own field, are: Dr.
Bob Gilliam, Dr. Fred Wellman,
Mrs. Cava Cherry, Mrs. Louise
Miles, Dr. Lorain Hite, and Dr.
Jack Turner. The majority of
these professors are in secondary
education.
Each summer, the School of
Education conducts a series of
conferences in various teaching
and program areas. These con­ferences
bring to the campus out­standing
educators who serve as
consultants, and who deliver open
lectures on significant topics
within their areas of responsi­bility.
stone. In those days, families
would turn an afternoon event
into an all-day social affair by
bringing over-loaded picnic bas­kets
to spread and share with
other visitors. On that particular
day however, tables packed with
food stretched a full block down
College Street. Hundreds cele­brated
the gala affair.
After its completion, having
been named for the late Governor
William J. Samford of Alabama,
the building housed engineering
lecture rooms in the basement, and
classrooms and offices on the
three main floors. Even Samford's
attic was utilized. It was Au­burn's
gym until 1892.
Built" in 1888, Samford Hall
stands four stories tall, having
dimensions of 71 x 160 feet. The
edifice, upon completion, cost a
total of $75,000.
Samford Hall, the oldest build­ing
on the Auburn campus, con­tains
forty-five rooms, and forms
the greater portion of the quadr­angle,
created by the arrangement
of the principal buildings. Sam­ford
forms the keystone in Au­burn's
gallery of buildings.
Life... Voyage With Many Ports

Beginning the journey
When you stand at the helm,
outward bound, you will do so
with your eyes fixed on the com­pass
and the stars to guide you
on the course you have set.
It is well, at this point, to make
a self-appraisal that will help
you to keep a log showing your
advancement. Ask yourself:
Am I sound physically, or am
I doing what seems to be advis­able
to become so, remembering
that good health is fundamental
to happiness?
Have I examined my mental
qualities in comparison w i th
those of other people whose suc­cess
in business, the professions,
or technology has been demon­strated?
Do I know my good qualities
so that I may make the most of
them, and my weak points so
that I may strengthen them?
Have I settled in my own mind
that whatever work I take up
must contribute to my happiness,
and that this can best be attain­ed
by doing the job at hand to
the best of my ability?
Have I determined to keep my
mind alert, to keep feeding my
mind by study so as to contribute
to my up-to-dateness and the
germination of ideas?

Debate The Issue
Governor Wallace pulled out of the Presidential race
Sunday; Senator Goldwater acheived nominal status as
he received the Republican nomination last week; Presi­dent
Johnson is still President Johnson, and will probably
be the Democratic nominee after the August convention.
The next President of the United States is being produced
this summer, and in case someone is unaware, this is
history in the making.
The next few months will see the rise of some mortal
to a position of influence so great that it can almost control
the tide of the United States for four years. What could
be a more worthy topic of discussion then than the qualifi­cations
of the men who aspire to that high office? We
can think of none.
For this reason we offer an introduction to this dis­cussion
on our editorial page this week. Two influential
campus political organizations, represented by their re­spective
presidents, offer open letters to the student body
concerning their candidates or policies.
For the same reason as above, "The Auburn Hour"
will present a series of debates between Goldwater and
Johnson supporters throughout the remainder of the sum­mer,
and again in the fall, up until election-time.
The process of discussion for the first few weeks will be
to attack and defend Sen. Goldwater. The Johnsonites will
lead off next Tuesday night with an attack on the Republi­can
platform or Sen. Gold water's qualifications. Following
their attack, the Goldwater forces will be given opportunity
to defend Republican planks. This procedure will con­tinue
until after the Democratic convention, at which time
the tables will be turned, and the Republicans will take
the offensive position.
All participants in these debates will be students. It
should be interesting and informative to listen to their
arguments. The directors of the "Auburn Hour" are again
to be commended for providing the student body with
such excellent services.
Campus Cowboys
Although we are generally in favor of any form of
recreation which eases the all-too-strenuous pressure of
college life, we are afraid that the latest trend in campus
sport cannot be condoned in any way. In the short space
of nine days two Auburn men have been temporarily crip­pled
by accidental gunshot wounds.
Last week's victim was injured in both legs when a
companion accidentally fired the gun as he practiced
twirling it. This week a "wild-west oriented" student shot
himself in the leg while practicing the "quick-draw."
We find it amazing that young men of college age could
be so obviously and flagrantly careless of the way in which
they handle firearms. It is ridiculous to suppose that they
just did not know better; even Jesse James knew the gun-handling
rules, we'll wager.
Whatever the reason for such carelessness, one thing
is apparent. Trick gun-twirling and quick-draw practice
should be reserved for the professionals or for little boys
who play with cap pistols. Otherwise more campus cow­boys
might "bite the dust", so to speak.

Young Democrats
Dear fellow students:
The Young Democrats welcome
students of practically all political
beliefs. You do not have to be
a member of anyone's fan club or
worship at a shrine to join us. We
even welcome difference of opin­ion.
We believe in progress, better
education, humanitarianism and
the Bill of Rights. We fail to see
any give-away programs since the
public domain was given away
after the Civil War by a number
of Republican administrations. We
do not think that helping the
poverty stricken is "giving away"
anything, but rather is building
for the future. Many successful
Republican businessmen today
worked in the depression for the
WPA and other so-called "give­away"
programs. We do not think
that a philosophy of complete
selfishness, and everyone looking
after himself can do anything
other, than lead to anarchy. We
believe that it is the function and
duty of the Federal government to
preside over the adjustment of the
national economy and the social
order to the new needs of the
modern technological age.
The Young Democrats are op­posed
to the county poorhouse,
which was a thriving institution
during the days of Harding,
Coolidge, and Hoover. What party
helped to remedy the situation?
The Democratic Party under the
dynamic leadership of Franklin
Roosevelt. What was the remedy?
The Social Security Program,
which Senator Goldwater claims
to be an evil socialistic scheme.
The vast majority of Americans
seem to be quite fond of the so-called
socialistic programs, which
have been enacted into law, large­ly
due to the efforts of the Demo­cratic
Party. The Democratic
Party has compassion for. the ill-housed,
the ill-clothed and the
downtrodden. Does Senator Gold-water
share this compassion?

g By DIANE SNODDY §
Freedom of speech, expression,
and the press are truly wonder­ful
ideologies but they present
a rather unique problem to the
reading and listening public of
the United States. This is the
problem of knowing when to be­lieve
and dis-b
e l i e v e that
which is broad­cast
and pub­lished.
Truth­ful
and learn­ed
men hold
no mono p o l y
on publication
rights in t h is
country; there­fore
the public
m u s t do re­search
to de­termine
the authority or lack of
authority held by the author of
any given publication.
Unfortunately, such research is
seldom done. Too often we, the
reading public, accept what we
wish to believe as creditable and
discard that which we choose to
disbelieve as "hogwash." We too
often search for the written word
(and it can be found supporting
any argument) rather than for the
truth. This seems to have been
the case with many people in the
Southern United States who, over
the past two years, have accept­ed
blindly the substance of Carle-ton
Putnam's document, "Race
and Reason."
In "Race and Reason," Mr. Put­nam
points up, among other
things, the inferiority of the Ne­gro
race with respect to the ca­pacity
to create and maintain
"civilized" culture. He also as­serts
that the Negro has more
of a tendency to do "evil" than
the white man. And as his main
point, he cites the results of a
series of I.Q. tests to show that
Negroes are, on the whole, in­ferior
intellectually to the white
man. (None of these statements
are valid according^ the science
of modern anthropology.)
And upon what authority does
Carleton Putnam make these
statements?
He purports to be an anthro­pologist,
a man of science, but in
reality he is an airline executive
who has studied law and biology.
Granted, he may have done ex­tensive
reading in the field of
anthropology, but one wonders
what he read. His arguments
against the Negro race are not
supported by any reputable an­thropologists
of the past half-century.
However, Mr. Putnam's docu­ment
is endorsed by one British
anthropologist, R. Gayre of Gayre.
A close examination of anthro­pology
handbooks and journals
will reveal that Dr. Gayre's claim
to anthropological fame is tinged
more with notoriety than with
respectability. In fact, Dr. Gayre
is not even listed in the 1963
Directory of British Scientists, .
the International Who's Who, or
the 1950 Dictionary of National
Biography—Oxford. He is listed
in Who's Who as Robert Gayre
of Gayre and Nigg, editor of two
books on English heraldry and
armorials, author of A Case for
Monarchy (1962), author of an
historical book called Teuton and
Slav and editor of Mankind
Quarterly (anthropological mag­azine).

Confused Questions
Triangle A Is Equal To Triangle B;
What About Negroes And Whites?
By Bill Butler
Are Negroes equal to whites?
This is a loaded question. Answer
yes and you are immediately a
"far pinko egalitarian." Answer
no and you are a "bigoted south­ern
redneck."
Actually the question has no
answer because it has no mean­ing.
Everyone knows what is
meant by "four times five is equal
to twenty," and in plane geo­metry
"triangle A is equal to tri­angle
B" means that the two tri­angles
have the same area. What
can be meant by saying that one
group of millions of people is
equal to another group also con­sisting
of millions of people?
Let us retreat a bit, regroup,
and attack the simpler question:
Is one Negro equal to one white?
What is meant by saying that one
individual is equal to another?
Surely one does not mean that
the two are identical. Even so-called
identical twins fail to meet
this requirement. Surely one
means something more profound
than equality in athletic ability,
although this is one part of a
man. Surely one means something
besides equality in wealth, al­though
few will deny the impor­tance
of money and things.
Perhaps the question refers
only to the minds of the men. The
question properly stated should
be: "Is the mind of man A equal
to the mind of man B?" We are
still at a loss, however, because
it is impossible to decide if one
mind is equal to another. Who
can say if the mind of William
Shakespeare, for example, is
equal to that of Issac Newton or
George Washington Carver? To­day,
even the I.Q. tests are re­cognized
as being extremely fal­lible
indicators of only certain
types of intelligence.
Suppose that we could take
some combination of athletic
ability, wealth, and intelligence
and use it to. .compare people.
Would these , things alone con­stitute
a man? We must conclude
therefore, that it is meaningless
to say that one group of millions
of men is equal or unequal to
another group of similar size.
Editors's Views . . .
(Continued from page 4)
It was in his connection with
the last of these publications that
Dr. Gayre obtained his notoriety.
It seems that there was some con­troversy
about Dr. Gayre's racial
views which resulted in his re­moval
from that editorial posi­tion.
From a glance at the works of
Mr. P u t n a m ' s anthropologist
friend, one thing is outstanding:
Dr. Gayre's apparent fascination
wtih status-symbols, such as
British eoats-of-arms. This class-consciousness
in itself is enough
to discredit him as anthro-pologist;
scientific objectivity is
obviously victimized by class pre­judice.
So what can one be sure of in
"Race and Reason?" One can only
be sure not to accept it as an un- j
questionable anthropological truth.
JOKE?
If there were no Negroes in the
United States, an astute student
observed, the editorial page of
this paper would be almost entire­ly
void. Oh well.
Sometimes the question: "Are
Negroes equal to white?" is used
when another question is intend­ed:
"Should Negroes be given
the same rights as whites?"
This question has a great deal of
meaning.

Knights, Sports Continue Unbeaten
As IM Softball Enters Home Stretch
As intramural softball enters the
home stretch, the situation in all
leagues remains the same. The
Sports in league two and the
Knights in league three are still
undefeated.
In league one, Plainsman Dorm
is still holding on to first place
with a 5-1 record, but AVMA is
pressing hard with a 5-2 record.
League two is headed by the
Sports with a 6-0 record. PKA is
running a close second with a
record of 5-1.
In league three, the Knights
hold a two-game edge over the
second place Clowns. Magnolia
Division B tops league four with
a 5-1 record.
Several good games were
pitched with one two-hitter, three
three-hitters, and three four-hit­ters
heading the list. The hurlers
had trouble finding the strike-zone
at times though, and issued
a total of ninty-one walks during
the week.
LEAGUE ONE
Plainsman Dorm rolled over SN
8-1. The winning pitcher was
Doug Jones, who hurled a four hit
ball game. The Mets came from
behind scoring four runs in the
final frame to take the Rabbit
Runners 6-4. In all, the Mets
pounded out a total of twelve hits,
with Charles Daugherty leading
all hitters going three for three.
AVMA took the measure of the
Colonels 8-3. Warren Perez was
the winning pitcher with a two-hit
effort. Plainsman Dorm whip­ped
the Colonels 8-4. Charles
Patterson pitched a three-hit ball
game to win. His teammates
backed him up with a ten hit at­tack.
AVMA beat the Rabbit
Runners 7-2.
LEAGUE TWO
LCA won its first game of the
year as they crushed Wesley 15-3.
Rod Taylor was the winning pitch­er
hurling three-hit ball, while his
team backed him with fifteen hits.
The Huds took PKT 19-7. PKT
out-hit the Huds 17-11, but the
difference was the twelve walks
given up by PKT.
The Sports beat LCA 7-3. White
was the winning pitcher striking
out five in throwing a four-hit ball
game. PKA rolled over the Huds
11-5. In that game, PKT had ten
hits including four home runs.
PKA beat Wesley 8-2.
LEAGUE THREE
The Clowns scored three runs in
the last inning to come from be­hind
and beat SAM 10-9. Bill
Blackstone led the Clowns at the
plate going two-for-three, includ­ing
a home run. CE forfeited to
the Knights.
The K n i g h ts smashed the
Clowns 19-2. The Knights col­lected
fifteen hits and drew nine
walks in backing up the three-hit
pitching performance of Leon
Greeson. GE forfited to SAM.
LEAGUE FOUR
Division D slipped by Division
G 14-10. D collected twelve hits
including four homeruns. High­light
of the game was three back
to back home runs by Owens,
McCroy, and Sherling. G for­feited

Arena-Auditorium Drive
Receives Additional Push
Auburn's drive for an urgently needed arena-auditorium
received another push forward this week as local officials
met in Eufaula yesterday with a committee recently appoint­ed
by Governor George C. Wallace to examine possibilities
for financing the facility.
AUBURN P R E S I DENT
RALPH B. DRAUGHON, told a
Eufaula gathering yesterday of
of the University's urgent need
for an arena-auditorium facility.
Conference Chiefs
Discuss Problems
The commissioners of the major
college athletic conferences around
Ihe nation held their annual
meeting last week at Coro-nado,
California. The group con­vened
on Tuesday, July 14, and
continued in session through Fri­day,
July 17. Bernie H. Moore,
Commissioner of the Southeastern
Conference and current president
of the NACC (National Association
of Collegiate Commissioners) pre­sided.
Discussions covered such vital
areas of college athletics as: a
national letter-of-intent, eligibility
problems, televising of contests,
football and basketball rules and
officiating. mechanics.

NEED EXPLAINED
The immediate need for a multi­purpose
building was explained to
the committee headed by Repre­sentative
Sim A. Thomas of Eu­faula.
President Ralph B. Draugh-on
told the group that, "The need
for an arena-auditorium at Au­burn
University has been acute
for many years. Our continually
growing enrollment has added
pressures to our limited facilities
for the physical education in­structional
programs, as well as
for campus-wide programs such
as concerts, lectures and sports."
"Our need for more adequate
auditorium facilities is most evi­dent
during such special occa­sions
as Governor's Day and
Honors Day, and during the four
commencements held each year.
To accommodate students and
visitors we are now forced to use
the stadium. Many times incle­ment
weather has necessitated use
of the temporary Student Activi­ties
Building for commencement.
Due to the limited seating, only
the closest relatives of graduating
students were able to attend.
UNDENIABLE RIGHT
J ' l t has been of deepest con­cern
to all of us at Auburn that
so many people, unable to ob­tain
seats for these occasions,
were denied their undeniable
right to see a friend or relative
graduated. During other major
events, such as our lectures and
concerts, it is equally disturbing
to see persons who have paid
admissions through activity fees
turned away," President Draugh-on
remarked.
Jeff Beard, Auburn Athletic
Director and member of a cam­pus
planning committee, told of
recent studies made campus-wide,
which reflect the University's
needs for an arena-auditorium.
TEMPORARY STRUCTURE
One obvious need, Beard point­ed
out, is a larger arena for Au­burn's
basketball games. A tem­porary
wooden structure now in
use seats fewer than 3,000 spec­tators.
"But this facility is needed for
many other activities as well as
basketball," Beard told the com­mittee.
"That's just a small part
of Auburn's needs when other
things such as registration, grad­uation
and other events are con­sidered."
The campus survey, Beard not­ed,
indicated that an arena-aud­itorium,
with adequate space and
temperature control, would be
used for registration and f or
numerous campus events such as
the annual Village Fair, intra­mural
sports, and class activities
for physical education depart­ments.
A number of schools have
indicated need for larger confer-

Summer Repair Program Under Way
On Two Intramural Sports Facilities
By HOLLIS EASLEY
Summer clean up is currently
under way to prepare Auburn Uni­versity's
buildings and grounds for
forth-coming fall quarter intra-murals.
Under the direction of Col. L.
E. Funchess, head of the Build­ings
and Grounds Department,
major improvements on the Drill
and Intramural fields and the Stu­dent
Activities Building are being
made at present.
B U I L D I N G INSULATION
The Student Activities Building,
center of recreational activities,
has recently been roofed at an
estimated cost of $9,000. Con­struction
to totally insulate the
building is now in progress. An
acoustical tile ceiling is being in­stalled
to absorb the noise made,
especially during tournaments and
dances. The new ceiling will also
improve the decor of the building
in that it will conceal the frame­work.
Plywood paneling is also being
added to the interior of the Stu­dent
Activities Building. The en­tire
edifice will be panelled identi­cally
to the existing entrance of
• the building. *.
WARMER AND COOLER
These improvements, which will
be completed by fall quarter,
promise a cooler building in the
summer months, and a warmer
one during cold weather spells.
The estimated cost of insulating
the building is $13,200.
Two main fields—the Max Mor­ris
Drill Field adjacent to Mag­nolia
Avenue, and the Physical
Education and Intramurals Field
on Donahue Drive—are also cited
for improvements. At present,
each is being maintained by ferti­lizing,
grass planting, and plugging
holes. A section of the intra­murals
field has been fenced off
to allow the regrowth of grass
killed last year by the winter
freezes.
LEVEL FIELD
The Highway Department will
aid in a project to move the large
deposits of dirt from the northeast
corner of Magnolia and Donahue
to the lower areas of the intra­mural
field. This project will
enable the entire area to be uti­lized
for all purposes. Completion
of this improvement is slated for
next summer.

ence areas and some have stated
a need for space to give group
examinations in general courses.
Governor Wallace, in appoint­ing
the committee among Auburn
trustees, declared that he wanted
to see the arena-auditorium pro­ject
under way before the end
of his administration. Others
named to the committee are John
Overton of Montgomery, Frank
P. Samford of Birmingham, E. L.
Wynn of Ashland and M. H.
Moses of Fyffe. State Superin­tendent
of Education Austin R.
Meadows was named as an ex-officio
member.
NO ACTION
The committee took no action
at Tuesday's meeting, but took
u n d e r advisement expressed
needs and discussions on financ­ing
the project for further study.
Other Auburn University offi­cials
attending the meeting were
Dr. Robert C. Anderson, execu­tive
vice-president; Coach Ralph
Jordan; Treasurer, W. T. Ingram;
Building and Grounds director
L. E. Funchess; Alumni Secre-try

Army Uses Men
In Defense Of Country
Editor. The Plainsman:
Statements about the Selective
Service which you reported last
week, give one the impression that
the armed forces is a huge voca­tional
school for the unemployed.
The armed forces does not employ
men, it uses them, uses them in
the defense of their country. •
Clerks, cooks, riflemen, and
radio repairmen are required to
meet the same mental and physical
standards for one reason, the de­fense
of their country. A clerk,
cook, rifleman, or repairman
should be capable of making sound
decisions in a combat situation,
and be able to handle a weapon
as well, as so often was proved in
World War II, Korea, and more
recently, in South Vietnam.
Could your businessmen be ex­pected
to be called upon to take
a rifle and hold a position?

Editor, The Plainsman:
Speaking critically, one notices
quite a bit of criticism these
days, especially in the critical,
political realm.
The liberals criticize the mod­erates
and conservatives, the con­servatives
criticize the liberals
and moderates, the moderates
criticize the conservatives and
liberals, and all three groups are
criticized by nonpartisan groups
of critics, who are, in turn, crit-ized
by everyone critical.
With all the criticism, one won­ders
if the whole critical lot has
a critical idea in their critical
heads!
