Roy Orbison, Newbeats
To Appear Here Friday
By JOE GAINES
Doors will open at 7:15 p.m. this Friday for the show
featuring Roy Orbison and the "Newbeats," in the Stu­dent
Activities Building. The performance is scheduled
to begin at 8 p.m.
Bob Hoit, superintendent of social life, stated that
ushers would be on hand to
seat people, and he specifically
requested that as students come
in, they fill- up all available
seats, starting at the ifront. The
reason for this he stated, is that
there will be limited seating for
the tickets sold.
Philpott Outlines
Priority Areas
Final plans for the Auditorium-Physical Education
Complex should be complete by April 1, with construc­tion
beginning shortly afterwards, President Harry M.
Philpott said Wednesday.
Addressing some 250 Faculty Club members and
their guests at a luncheon, Dr. every student who wants a
Philpott said the Science and
Literature-Education Complex
should be begun in late summer
or early fall. The building pro­gram
has been held up, he said,
because of the length of time
required in applying for addi­tional
facility grants. Money for
these projects was allocated
from the recent $116 million
state bond issue for education
construction.
Commenting on the prospects
of a special session on educa­tion,
Dr. Philpott said he would
"dedicate the totality of my en­ergies"
to negotiate for Au­burn's
share of the surplus in
the educational trust fund if
one is to be held.
Allocations are not being
sought for building in higher
education, Dr. Philpott said.
"Our greatest need is not for
additional buildings but for
money on which to build a new
base for a continuing operating
appropriation that would enable
us to develop in the future as
we see need."
Salary increases—to bring
faculty salaries up to the
Southern region average would
be the first priority for any
additional money, Dr. Philpott
said. "The second need is in the
area of additional faculty. Cur­rently,
75 teaching positions are
needed, with an additional 25
needed by September."
Other priority areas would
include .the establishment of a
School of Commerce and one or
more new departments. Main­tenance
would have fourth
priority.
The President said that 4,500
applications have been received
to date for the fall quarter, but
that admission would have to
be limited to 2,300. "The state
has provided an opportunity to
higher education, but the state
has riot seen fit to provide
every student in Alabama with
that opportunity at Auburn
University."
Asked about plans for bring­ing
other entertainment groups
to Auburn, Hoit said plans were
J I the final stages lot a fn£c»
show during Village Fair.
Roy Orbison is well known
for his voice range and his
many r e c o r d i n g s include
"Candy Man," "Only The Lone­ly,"
"Dream Baby,v and "Cry­ing,"
Hoit said.
The "Newbeats," newcomers
in the recording industry, re­corded
"Bread and Butter" in
1964 becoming one of the "top
ten" groups in t h e country.
Since then, they have been do­ing
personal appearances over
the country.
Last Oct. 28, the entertain­ment
committee polled the stu­dent
body to determine what
popular groups were desired by
the majority. The Righteous
Brothers topped the poll, fol­lowed
closely by The Supremes,
The Beachboys, Ray Charles,
Bob Dylan, and Orbison.

Seniors Will Receive T Stickers
If President Approves New Plan
By BRUCE NICHOLS
Juniors and Seniors may be required to park their
cars farther from the center of the campus and parking
space available to Juniors may be reduced.
These changes were proposed by the Traffic Com­mittee
Thursday, but according to Director of Buildings
and Grounds L. E. Funchess,
Professor
Succumbs
Saturday
must be approved by President
Harry M. Philpott before they
can be enacted.
By voice vote, the committee
recommended that next fall,
graduate students park in the
"B" zone, Seniors be given the
"C" zone, and all Juniors be re­quired
to share the "D" zone
with commuting Freshmen and
Sophomores.
If the proposals are imple­mented,
Seniors who now park
in zones B, C, and D will be
moved out of zone B. The 438
"B" zone spaces will be open
exclusively to Graduate stu­dents,
Juniors, who presently
may park in zones "C" and "D"
will lose parking privileges in
1511-space zone "C" and will
compete with commuting Fresh­men
and Sophomores for 2086
"D" zone spaces.
In the only other vote taken
by the committee, a' motion to
recommend rescinding of the
rule prohibiting freshmen au­tomobiles
in the city was de­feated.
The possibility that sopho­mores
be prohibited from
bringing cars to the city in the
Fall of 1967 was also discussed.
Funchess suggested that action
on the proposal be postponed
until the next meeting in order
that study of the matter be
more complete.
Committee member Bill
Whatley suggested that several
parking spaces at each campus
intersection be eliminated to
create turn lanes and "perhaps
speed the flow of traffic
through campus." Funchess, ex­pressed
opposition to Whatley's
proposal saying that traffic
should move slowly through
campus to protect pedestrians.
The committee took no action
on Whatley's suggestion.

Faculty Council Studies
Music Head's Removal
The Faculty Council was to take into consideration
the recent change in the music department faculty at
a meeting yesterday, according to Chairman James R.
Woodall, professor of English.
Prof. Woodall said he had written President Harry
M. Philpott a letter of protest
"concerning means and meth­ods"
in the removal of the mu­sic
department head, Hubert
Liverman, by Dean of the
School of Architecture and the
Arts William Speer.
Prof. Woodall told the Plains­man
he would present his letter
at the Council meeting. He said
that he had not received any
official response from the pres­ident
on the matter.
Early this week, Dr. Philpott
said he had not had an oppor­tunity
to review the matter
since returning from an out-of-town
trip. He was attending
meetings in Birmingham sev­eral
days last week.
Prof. Woodall told the Plains­man
that several avenues for
action on the matter would be
open to the Faculty Council.
Among them, he said, would be
approval of the letter he had
written, and a possible resolu­tion
concerning the Council's
opinion on the events.
He said the Council could
also choose to conduct its own
investigation of the matter.
A report on action taken by
the Council was not available
at presstime.
Funeral services w e re

Dr. Salmon died Saturday of
a heart attack.
Described by Agriculture
Dean E. V. Smith as one of
"Auburn's most distinguished

•Maybe Next Fall
No Computer Registration Next Quarter
By JOE SANDERS
C o m p u t e r registration
will not begin at Auburn
Spring Quarter, according
to recent information re­ceived
from the Office of
the Registrar, but a pro­gram
is underway to make
it a reality this fall.
Currently enrolled students,
when they report to their dean
or advisor for schedule planning
during pre-registration, will be
requested to complete a special
form when they fill in the of­ficial
trial schedule form.
These forms which would
show the student's desired list
of subjects and day-and-hour
schedule for Spring Quarter,
will be used in a "dry run" test
on the proposed computer regis­tration
system.
Results of the "mock" com­puter
registration will not be
used for scheduling, the Regis­trar
said, but simply to "iron
out the bugs" in Auburn's pro­posed
computer registration
system for Fall Quarter.
Students not eligible to pre-rcgister
will be contacted by
their dean as to when to report
for filling out the forms, the
Registrar said.
For pre-registering students,
forms should be filled in when
the student reports initially to
his dean or advisor for schedule
planning, prior to picking up
punched class cards in the de­partmental
offices.
The forms should be left with
the dean's representatives who
will forward it to the Registrar's
office where the study is being
conducted.
Success of the study depends
on the full participation of all
currently enrolled students, the
Registrar's office emphasized,
and urged all students to co­operate.

at the meeting.
McMillan expressed hope
that whatever course of action
the committee followed, steps
would be taken to show stu­dents
that their interests are
being carefully considered.
Students, he said, would be
more understanding and willing
to cooperate with incoveniences
if future plans promised relief.
Dean Foy asked the commit­tee
to recommend removal of
the rule prohibiting freshmen
from bringing cars to Auburn.
The rule, which was enacted
last fall, "invites violation," he
said because it is "difficult to
enforce" and can create a dis­respectful
attitude toward other
university regulations.
Committee Chairman Fun-chess
defended the rule, saying
that despite some student viola­tions,
the rule had discouraged
a majority of freshmen from
bringing cars to Auburn and
had contributed to considerable
easing of congestion in town
and on campus. A motion to
recommend rescinding of the
regulation was defeated by a
voice vote.
In addition, Dean Foy sug-guested
that the committee take
"bold steps'" to ease campus
traffic problems without in­creasing
restrictions on student
automobile privileges. As an
example, he proposed construc­tion
of several multi-level park­ing
facilities on and around
campus. The project would be
financed with a rental fee paid
by persons using the space.
The committee discussed
Dean Foy's proposals and sev­eral
possible parking zone
changes, but took no action on
these suggestions.
The committee is composed
of eight university personnel;
Funchess, R. C. Cargile, C.
Godfrey, J. T. Hood, E. O.
Jones, B. T. Langham, W. H.
Mims, G. E. Tanger; and four
students, Bill Whatley, Laurie
Harden, Bruce Nichols, and
John Lange.
Salmon
search was devoted to the study
of nutrition in animals, includ­ing
notable contributions con­cerning
nutritional effects on
cancer, and studies of B vita­mins.
He retired from teaching last
July 1, but had continued his
research under the auspices of
the Public Health Service.
The University of Kentucky
honored him in 1958 with an
honorary doctorate degree, and
in 1965/ named him one of 85
"distinguished alumni" at their
centennial celebration.

The Student Executive Cabi­net
required all campus organ­izations
with the exception of
social fraternities a n d sorori­ties,
to submit statements con­cerning
the group's purpose and
activities. This action was taken
so that duplicity of functions
and inactivity which existed in
many of the societies could be
eliminated.

Auburn's first Greek Week
included panel discussions, lec­tures,

was initiated as an annual
event.
Auburn had a student union
program composed of student
organizations, but still lacked
the union building to house
and co-ordinate these activities.

ENGINEERS, SCIENTISTS, MATHEMATICIANS: Explore the unique opportunities at
National Security Agency
... where special programs encourage rapid professional advancement
for the engineer, scientist and mathematician launching his career.
Unequaled Facilities and Equipment
In a near-academic atmosphere, NSA scientists and
engineers enjoy the most fully-instrumented labora­tories
and use of advanced computer and other
equipment, some found nowhere else in the world.
Skilled clerical and technical support will free
you to concentrate on the most challenging aspects
of your projects, and thus help speed your pro­fessional
growth.
Outstanding Colleagues
You will work alongside people of enormously
varied backgrounds and intellectual interests, over
500 of whom hold advanced degrees.
NSA is a scientific and technological community
unique in the United States, perhaps in the world.
Unique in its mission, its operation, its require­ments
. . . unique, too, in the scope of opportunity
it affords a young scientist or engineer beginning
his career.
A separate agency functioning within the Depart­ment
of Defense, NSA is responsible for developing
"secure" (i.e., invulnerable) communications systems
to transmit and receive vital information. Within
this area, which encompasses the whole field of
cryptology-the science of codes and ciphers—NSA
project teams pursue a broad spectrum of investiga­tions
taking them well beyond many known and
accepted boundaries of knowledge. Beginning with
basic research, these investigations progress through
applied research, development and design, prototype
engineering, and on into various phases of applica­tions
engineering.
At NSA you might specialize in any or several of
these sectors, depending on your talents and special
interests:
ENGINEERING. Antenna/transmitter/receiver
design . . . high speed computers (digital and analog)
. . . transistor circuitry . . . advanced radio com­munications
techniques. . . microwave communica­tions
. . . audio and video recording devices . . .
cryogenic studies and applications . . . integrated
circuitry . . . microminiaturization.
PHYSICS. Solid state (basic and applied) . . . nu­clear
magnetic resonance phenomena . . . electro­magnetic
propagation . . . upper atmosphere
phenomena . . . superconductivity and cryogenics
(Ph.D. graduates only).
MATHEMATICS. Statistical mathematics . . . matrix
algebra . . . finite fields . . . probability . . . com­binatorial
analysis . , . programming and symbolic
logic.
Researchers at NSA also receive constant stimulus
from outside the agency. To assist in certain program
areas, NSA often calls on special boards of consul­tants—
outstanding scientists and engineers from in­dustry
and academic centers as well as from other
government agencies.
Career Development Opportunities
Your professional growth and earning power expand
from the day you join NSA, without having to accu­mulate
years of "experience." NSA career develop­ment
is orderly and swift; substantial salary increases
follow as you assume more and more responsibility.
A number of NSA career development programs
help shorten the time when you can contribute at
your maximum potential. These programs include:
ADVANCED STUDY. NSA's liberal graduate study
program affords you the opportunity to pursue
part-time study up to eight hours each semester
and/or one semester or more of full-time graduate
study at full salary. Nearly all academic costs are
paid by NSA, whose proximity to seven universities
offering a wealth of advanced courses and seminars
is an additional asset
IN-HOUSE TRAINING. The new NSA employee
first attends a six-week general orientation program,
followed by a period of specialized classroom study
designed to broaden familiarity with an area or
areas of heavy NSA concern (e. g., communications
theory, cryptanalysis, computer logic and analysis,
solid state physics). Formal study is complemented
by on-the-job training, as you work and learn undet
the guidance and direction of highly experienced
associates.
PROFESSIONAL ASSOCIATIONS, TRAVEL. The
agency fosters a climate of recognition and advance­ment
for its young professionals by encouraging
participation in professional association affairs, and
assisting you to attend national meetings, seminars
and conferences as well as visit other research fa­cilities
where related work is underway—govern­ment,
university and industrial — throughout thef
United States.
Liberal Personnel Policies, Attractive
Location
NSA policies relating to vacations, insurance and
retirement are fair and liberal. You enjoy the bene­fits
of Federal employment without the necessity of
Civil Service certification.
Located between Washington and Baltimore, NSA
is also near the Chesapeake Bay, ocean beaches, ski
resorts and other popular summer and winter rec­reation
areas, not to mention the varied leisure-time
attractions of the nation's capital itself. The location
permits your choice of city, suburban or country
living.

Operation Unsuccessful
Prize Bull Is Not Yet A Father
By DAVID CAMPBELL
Lindertis Evulse, supposedly the most perfectly bred
bull in the world, has not gained reproductive compet­ence
from his operation undergone at Auburn last sum­mer.
According to Dr. Donald F. Walker, who operated
on Evulse, the chances are "dim" that the operation will

But Evulse has suffered most

be successful.
Dr. Walker, Auburn associ­ate
professor of large animal
surgery and medicine, stated
that Evulse was being kept in
Auburn and that he was under­going
fertility tests.
International attention was
brought to Auburn last summer
as newsmen gathered for the
operation which would bypass
blockage in the efferent tubules.
Dr. Walker had performed the
rare operation six times—suc­ceeding
on two attempts.
If Evulse were capable of
reproducing, he could sire 10
million dollars worth of Aber­deen
Angus cattle over the next
ten years.
Black Watch Farms's of New
York paid $176,400, a world
record, for Evulse.

Black Watch that Evulse would
be an expectant father within
six months after the purchase
of Evulse in 1963. Evulse is

A Space In Time
The Lady Or The Tiger?
'Everyman' Atmosphere
Will Fill Obvious Void
By Mary Whitley
one coffeemaker for 'Every-
Sacrifice
It was 9:09 again and Auburn traffic
is at a standstill.
With visions of multi-storied park­ing
garages looming sketchily on the
cloudy horizon some overheated sen­ior
and junior cars circle the cam­pus
searching out that ever-elusive 4-3
chance of finding a parking place. (A
relable traffic committee source re­vealed
that 4-3 really meant slim-to-none.)
But a ray of hope filtered into the
picture—the traffic committee propos­ed
that traffic be decongested by the
thinning out of junior and senior cars
by providing parking space further
from campus. The transition from
"Zone B" to "Zone C" will be difficult
for some of us. Those really suffering
will be the neglected freshmen who
were. stripped of their automotive
transportation earlier this year.
We recognize that it is well time
to limit the number of vehicles operat­ing
on campus and the quantity of
space they idly consume. But' we can­not
understand why (or how) the Uni­versity
can assume responsibility for
enforcing rules prohibiting both fresh­men
and sophomores from bringing
cars to Auburn.
Since no final decisions have been
relayed to Dr. Harry Philpott for his
approval, we admonish the traffic com­mittee
to reconsider the feasibility of
such things as multi-level parking gar­ages
and overland transportation sys­tems.
We ask them, too, to take into
account the number of students who
must drive to campus (be they fresh­men
or graduate student-teachers).
The parking "pie" shows signs of need­ing
to be "recut."
"Needed,
man'."
The plea is a sincere one. You have to efficiently and tastily
prepare only five types of drinks (hot cider, Capucino, regular
coffee, tea and soft drinks) and know how to handle a popcorn
popper. The pay is small. But the hours are reasonable—from
8 to midnight Friday and Satur-

students will be asked to par­ticipate
in a trial run of the computer
registration system. And, for the eval­uation
of this run to be successful,
every student must participate.
During this pre-registration period
Students will complete schedule plan­ning
form for spring quarter as ap­proved
by respective deans. Those stu­dents
not eligible to pre-registration
will be notifed by their schools of
times for completing the blanks.
The entire study is proposed to im­prove
the schedule of course offerings
and to eliminate the many seen and
unforeseen "bugs" in < Auburn's pro­posed
computer registration undertak­ing.
Hopefully, it will meet with over­whelming
success.
Only one hundred per cent student
cooperation in the study program will
afford all students an even break at
desirable class hours.
For better or worse, the system is
with us. We propose to make the best
of it.
day nights. Any takers?
'Everyman' for those who
may not recognize the name, is
Auburn's latest step down the
road of becoming part of the
"in crowd." It's the first local
version of a coffeehouse ever
to make it to opening night.
'Everyman' doesn't proport to
be surging intellectual stim­ulator
or the controversial hot
spot where "far outers" vent
their emotions o na captive au­dience.
Instead, 'Everyman' will be
an atmosphere, a good place for
people to come and talk.
A word to the wise, if you
want to actually "see" the art
displays you'll have to bring
your own flashlight or check
one out. Many of the paintings
will be for sale but, for those
who wish to study technique of
a $50 or $75 picture or pust
want to hang it over that big
hole on the far apartment wall,
nominal rental fees afford am­ple
oportiinity to do so.
Open two nights a week,
'Everyman' is a non-profit
organization (they just want to
break even) located at 148 So.
Gay, just across the street from
the Big Bear Supermarket.
They won't serve anything to
eat but the drinks (at a nomilal
fee) and popcorn which is free.
Entertainment, for the present
will consist mainly of folksing-ing
groups with the desire in
the near future of expanding
the "program undertakings" to
include jazz, readings and
eventually the production of the
morality play, 'Everyman.'
Alex Carman, manager of this
full-time-part-time new look
for Auburn has been busy for
over a month with a staff of
volunteers do-it-your-selfers
who've done everything from
making mags, ashtrays and
candleholders to building tables
and struggling to cover them
with plastic coatings of pink,
read and orange.
There's something about these
"sag" bottle ashtrays and
aromatic amber candle holders
that grows on you. But, be
forewarned they're too cumber­some
to be removed with "the
five finger discount."
. In the near future 'Everyman'
hopes to remain open several
afternoons a week with piped
music, checker and chess sets,
conversation and a satisfying
inexpensive place for students
and professors and interested
townspeople to gather.
'Everyman' is striving to fill
another Auburn void. Or in
the words of its namesake . . .
"Everyman, I wili go with thee
and be thy guide by thy side
whenever thou art in need. . ."
Better hurry Saturday night.
Everyman only holds 20 table-fulls.
A Bargain In Peace
If you had to pay for it, you could
say you were getting double your
money's worth in time and services.
But, you can't because this one won't
cost you a thing at the time but your
undivided attention.
The big bargain is the 1966 Auburn
Conference on International Affairs
which begins one week from today.
It's no secret that plans outlined by
ACOIA Chairman Gerald Rutberg
practically double everything ever at­tempted
before for such a conference.
The 11 speakers, well versed on the
topic "Subversion in the Sixties," along
with panel members are expected not
only to give respected commentary but
will attempt to incite some construc­tive
controversy while here.
We feel that with the undisputable
divergency of speaker interests, politi­cal
beliefs and personal contacts with
phases of the question the 1966 confer­ence
will be a far cry from the "red,
red, red purge" outlined as its destiny
by some lesser informed students.
Their reactions will be interesting to
observe.
We look forward to the conference.

Lay Freedom's Foundation

'The Pill' Indiscriminately?
Birth control pills for unmarried
coeds are the order of the day at
Brown University, according to the Ivy
League's student newspaper.
Dr. Roswell D. Johnson, director of
health services at Pembroke College,
Brown's exclusive undergraduate wo­men's
college, has acknowledged that
21 unmarried coeds received the con­traceptive
pills. He said the number
of girls given pills was "very, very
small."
No reason was given by the good
doctor or the concerned "Brown In­firmary"
(if we may call it that) for
distributing these promiscuity pack­ages.
"We want to know why they want
to use the pills," Dr. Johnson said. "I
want to feel I'm contributing to a solid
relationship and not to unmitigated
promiscuity."
To the Doctors—Brown, several Au­burn
students have wondered if miti­gated
promiscuity will be all right?
Clark Kent Loses His Glasses
It seems that our managing editor,

And, Brown, without his tortoise-shell
wonders has proven a menace to
Auburn society. How could anyone get

our rural areas are becoming
suburbs, and what used to be
wide, rolling farms are being
taken over by houring pro-ects.
I would be among the last to
undermine progress. It is a
natural result of the passage
of time and the ambition of
man. It is a reasonable thing
to me as the farmer becomes
able to feed more people, the
number of farms, should de­crease—
not only for economic
reasons, but because the land
he once tilled is needed to pro­vide
h6mes for the growing
population.
But at the same time, I feel
a deep twinge of loss at the
decline of an agrarian society.
As a product of such, I feel that
the values instilled in and the
joy of living bestowed upon
those who have been blessed
by a rural background will be
sorely missed by future in-heritants
of this earth.
For how can joy be more
exuberantly expressed than in
the frolicking of lambs in a
pasture on a sunny Sunday
morning?
Where does faith come from
if not in watching what seemed
to be dead brown seeds germi­nate
and burst through rich,
black earth to form row after
row of vibrant green shoots of
life?
What is happiness if you've
never padded barefoot down a
warm dirt lane, taking ice
water to Daddy plowing over
in the back field, on a morn­ing
when the air was fresh with
dew and you could breath deep
and smell the rich scent of
newly-plowed earth, and hear
the tractor chugging and know
that you might get to ride?
How can you feel more at
peace with the world than when
you're snoozing on a pond bank,
with a line dangling in water
where you know you're not
going to catch anything over
two inches long, but the sun in
baking the top of your head,
blistering your nose and the top
of your feet, and it sure feels
good?
Living on a farm is being
able to run out and get the
Sunday morning paper in your
nightgown . . . the smell of
freshly-mown hay . . . the
warm feel of new-turned earth
under bare feet . . . snuggling
under a stack of quilts a foot
high on nights when the wind
whistles around the eaves . . .
pancakes with real butter and
fresh pork sausage at 5:30 in
the morning, and sugar cookies
warm from the oven when you
get off the school bus.
It's seeing cows move lazily
up the lane at sunset, while the
tractors chug in from the fields
. . . and it's waking in the
morning to a warm spring
breeze drifting the curtains at
your window, while birds twit-ln
Search Of Quality . . .
Ridicule By Students
Won't Speed Progress
By Bruce Nichols
"Auburn? Auburn isn't a university. The
administration is misguided. The students
are ignorant. Auburn people don't think of anything but football,
fraternities, sororities, parties, and farming. Academics? Aca­demics
is a joke. I'm interested in a broad education so I'm
sorry I ever came here. Study? But my instructor doesn't even
know what he's talking about."
These comments sum recent
lament that the "loveliest vil­lage"
isn't so lovely and that
Alabama's land grant institu­tion
is falling behind in its ef­forts
to prepare young people
for the "hereafter."
Surely, Auburn has many
problems, as do all state "uni­versities,"
and admittedly, we
have "farther to go" than many
institutions to achieve true
"university" status. However,
one wearies of continuous ridi­cule
directed toward construc­tive
efforts in education's be­half.
Auburn, as a university, is
young — officially barely six
years old. There had been
changes in curriculum, acade­mic
attitude, and atmosphere
during 61 years as Alabama
Polytechnic Institute, but with
the name change in 1960, a
fully matured university did
not exist. No one expects the
physical development of a child
to exceed the rate appointed by
nature. Similarly, no one should
have expected a polytechnic in­stitute
to become a noted lib­eral
arts center "over night"
merely b e c a u s e the name
changed.
Auburn was, and still ,is to a
great extent, a technical school
—and a good one. This is cer­tainly
nothing to be ashamed
of.
Auburn engineering grad­uates
compete successfully for
choice employment with grad­uates
from all over the nation.
The School of Veterinary
Medicine serves students from
Florida, Kentucky, Louisiana,
Tennessee in addition to Ala­bama,
and prepares them well.
Of common knowledge is the
sizable contribution made to the
welfare of Southern farmers by
the School of Agriculture and
its extension service.
Admittedly, Auburn has no
reputation as a liberal arts in­stitution,
as many hasten to
point out. This aspect of her
development belongs to the fu­ture.
But despite this lack of
academic notoriety in the past,
Auburn has produced leaders
in every field of business and
industry. You can bet safely
that those who found success
didn't spend much time ridicul­ing
the quality of their instruc­tion.
Of coupse, taculty and admin­istration
should strive to better
the quality and to broaden the
scope of instruction offered
here, but cynical student critic­ism
will not speed the advance.
As Pleasant As May . . .
The Old Man Fought Weil
And Finally Escaped
By Jerry Brown
His name was Elias Joseph Carney. I first
saw him when I was about eight and he was
78. He had come from Choctaw County, across the river, to
help with the small farm chores, upon recommendation of our
family relative. His wife had been dead five or1 so years; his
son had gone off to Birmingham to work in a steel mill; and he
had receded from the labors of
life entirely, save for climbing
the stairs to a little room he
had over a Toxey cafe. He came
one Sunday afternoon when
winter was nearing its end and
the gusts of March had begun
to sweep over stubbled fields
in promise of the redbirds and
cornplanting soon to come. He
took a little "side-room" on the
porch of our seven room frame
house.
He brought few possessions—
a Bible, a songbook, a bottle of
wildcat whiskey, a few old
flannel shirts, co r d ur o y
breeches, and the like. Since
all my brothers had married
and gone, he became my friend
and counsellor through the
waking hours of a few forma­tive
years.
His face was sallowy and yel­lowed
with years; his back was
crooked ever so slightly from
bending over hoes and weilding
axes. The absence of teeth lent
his face hundreds of tiny
wrinkles giving him the ap­pearance
of a finely engraved
old woodcut.
He would talk to me as we
piddled around the house and
field. "When I was a boy," he
said once, "we would never
sing a song just by the words.
We would sing first by the
notes and then by the words.
After hearing a few songs "by
the notes" (do, re, mi, fa,
etc.) and hearing a few names
tier gaily outside, and knowing
that "God's in his heaven and
all's right with the world."
It's a good way of life, but
time marches on. And surely
these things too, will find their
match in greater joys and a
better life to come . . . with
progress.
like "The Sacred Harp" and
"The Class Choir," I decided to
try to learn a song. The first
song he taught me was h is
favorite, "How Tedious and
Tastless The Hours." We would
sit on our wide planked front
porch on l a t e spring nights
during plowing-time and sing
that song with a background
chorus of frogs, july-flies and
locusts: "How tedious and
tasteless the hours, when Jesus
no longer I see; the midsummer
sun shines but dim the fields
strive in vain to look gay; but
when I am happy in Him, De­cember's
as pleasant as May."
And I didn't just learn songs.
The old man taught me a
philosophy which had sustained
him through all the tempests of
his time—he knew how to get
away from it all. When his
arthritic legs would cramp, he
would drink his whiskey and
wait for relief. When he was
an exact figure. He was alone
in the world and out of that
loneliness, he summoned a
sense of involvement with life
and its intricacies. He would
stay interested with a hope for
something better someday. His
life was a dusky yesterday but
he never thought of it that way.
He moved back to his little
room above the cafe after his
legs had gotten so bad he
couldn't work.
Someone told me a year or so
later that Mr. Carney fell down
the cafe stairs and broke his
neck. I was sad; I had lost a
friend, a faithful companion.
But remembering the past con­versations
and thinking of his
dreams and escapements, I
could only imagine that the old
singer, who had fought life
well, had finally reached the
place he had hoped for: "Where
December's as pleasant as May."
Letters To The Editor . . .
Readers Comment On Food, Auburn, And Paper
Mussig Invited For
Boarding House Meal
Editor, the Plainsman:
In reply to Mr. Mussig's re­cent
editorial bombardments
at "unionized hash houses," I
would like to present the other
side of the boarding house
story. I think that I am quali­fied
to speak on the boarding
house issue because for the past
ten quarters I have b e e n a
tableboy and head tableboy at
a Boarding House on West Mag­nolia
Avenue. This "indentured
servant" is now retired; yes,
retired, receiving free meals and
services during his graduating
quarter. My arguments will be
based on the policies of the
boarding house I worked at,
but I understand that practices
of the other boarding houses
are pretty much the same as
ours.
Let me begin by saying that
no one is compelled to eat at a
boarding house. There are ade­quate
eating facilities on cam­pus
and "uptown" to fill Au­burn's
bellies. Why, then, do so
many people eat at boarding
houses? The simple answer is
that the food and services are
so much better in boarding
houses than in the other estab­lishments.
I would have laugh­ed,
had I not been just a little
peeved at Mr. Mussig's apparent
ignorance concerning the quali­ty
of boarding house food. At
most of the boarding houses
"hamburger, barely disguised"
is served approximately once a
week. We do not serve instant
potatoes. Rarely, if ever are
our french fries "greasy," and
they are never "barely thawed."
On the subject of Mr. Mus­sig's
"indentured servants," I
would like to know what he
considers adequate compensa­tion
for these "slaves." Maybe
$2.50 per hour plus a company
car would be in line with Mr.
Mussig's ideas. Why don't the
tableboys unionize and bargain
for higher wages? Maybe they
don't because they know that
the competition for the'<otoM' i's
terrific and t h e y are' .lucky
to have a job at all'. Personally,
I have saved over $1500 by
serving meals and I greatly ap­preciate
the opportunity of hav­ing
been an "indentured serv­ant."
I wonder if Mr. Mussig has
ever eaten in a boarding house.
I would guess that he has never
even entered one. However, for
the benefit of fair play, I would
like to invite Mr. Mussig to be
our guest for one meal, at his
discretion, of course, and prove
to him that the "monopolized
garbage" he speaks so learned­ly
of is not in the boarding
houses but in his, and a few
others, editorials in "our" pub­lic-
minded Plainsman.

Student Questions
Mussig's 'Tastes'
Editor, The Plainsman:
My opinion, and I think I
speak for the rest of the Au­burn
male students who eat in
a boarding house, is that I like
it or I wouldn't be eating there
in the first place.
To let the University regu­late
the board houses would be
placing these private establish­ments
on an equal plane with
the other University-regulated
eating place—Magnolia Dormi­tories.
No man who has eaten
at Mag and switched to a
boarding house would want to
see that happen. For the mean­time,
I'll pay the extra few dol­lars
and enjoy my food, pray­ing
all the time that the Uni­versity
will never regulate the
Auburn boarding houses. By
the way, where do you eat, Mr.
Mussig?

Equal Space Requested
For 'Extremist' Papers
Editor, The Plainsman:
The Birmingham Independ­ent,
a weekly newspaper, dated
Jan. 26-Feb. 1, 1966, carried as
its headline story the report
that Mr. Paul Henry requested
the removal of the aforemen­tioned
newspaper from the
racks of the War Eagle Cafe­teria.
As Director of Auxiliary
Enterprises, he had been re­quested
to have the paper re­moved
to avoid any dissention.
This situation seems to have
arisen due to the fact that the
Southern Courier, published by
a group of agrarian reformers
from the north, had also re­quested
rack space and had
been denied' the privilege. It
appears that the disagreement
centered around the fact that
both papers are "controversial."
An appropriate q u e s t i on
would be: Who decides what is
controversial and what is not
controversial? In our opinion,
The Atlanta Constitution is a
controversial newspaper, since
t .
its editor, Ralph McGill, has
many left-wing, un-American
ideas in his daily column. It
seems that anything which is
pro-American, p r o - republic,
a n d pro-free-enterprise, such
as the Birmingham Independ­ent,
is now considered "contro­versial"
or "extremist." An­other
question could be: If con­troversy
is the delegating fac­tor,
it seems that any news­paper
would have to be remov­ed
from the area; however, cer­tain
ones are not considered
controversial. WHY? The Com­munist
Worker is available on
on the shelves of the Draughon
Library, among other left-wing,
communistic papers and maga­zines,
but the Birmingham In­dependent
cannot be sold on
campus to a person with a
freedom of choice. How's that
for keeping out controversial
literature?
It's only fair play that if
these anti-American publica­tions
can be sold on campus
or displayed publicly in the
university library, t h e n the
conservative Birmingham In­dependent
should have the
right to be sold on campus also.
A person is not forced to buy
it or agree with what is said, so
why is it more controversial
than others?

organization of questionable

Is it because we haven't had
our share of destructive riots in
the name of free speech or free
love?
Is it because we don't sup­port
a colony of "non-students"
near-by? Is it because our pro­fessors
don't fly off to Hanoi,

Auburn is better known for her
outstanding athletic teams than
for her students out standing
in the streets in brazen demon­strations
of' civil disobedience?
Auburn is now as much a
university as any other insti­tution
in t h e United States.
Auburn's only distinction is
that most of her students are
more concerned with getting an
education and a degree than
with getting a beard, body odor,
and a police record.

Draws Doubts
Editor, The Plainsman:
Webster's Seventh New Col­legiate
Dictionary describes a
university thusly: "An institu­tion
of higher learning provid­ing
facilities for teaching and
research and authorized -to
grant academic degrees; speci­fically;
one made up of an un­dergraduate
division w h i ch
confers bachelor's degrees and
a graduate division which com­prised
a graduate school and
professional schools ^ach of
which may confer master's de­grees
and doctorates." For the
most part, Auburn meets these
requirements. Why then, do
certain Plainsman editorialists
dream of the day when Auburn
can truly be called a univer­sity?

Vietnam Policy
Receives Condemnation
Editor, the Plainsman:
Concerning to Walk In Dig­nity
by Miss Jana Howard; it is
illogical to say it is America's
"duty to preserve the right of
the South Vietnamese to walk
in the dignity of those who mas­ter
their own destiny." If we
must interfere, these people are
obviously no longer master of
anything, or they wouldn't need
us.
Briefly, the American War of
Independence was an agrarian
revolution against the puppet
regime of a far-off, overbearing
world power; a bourgeois re­gime,
held up on the bayonets
of a foreign army, a sham
government used as a political
power a g a i n s t conflicting
spheres of powe"r.
Briefly, the Viet Cong is an
agrarian group receiving aid
from a conflicting power (just
as the colonists received from
France) to fight a bourgeois
government that has no connec­tion
with the interests of the
former beyond' oppression and
exploitation; a bourgeois gov­ernment
that is the puppet of a
foreign industrial power, a
pawn to be played against
rival empires.
Peace is good for the former;
only the capitalist gets rich off
war.. Remember who came out
on top after the Civil War—
the industrial north, with its
government assisted factories
turned to war production.
So who stands to gain in
Viet Nam? The factory own­er,
the rich men, the corrupt
politicians, everybody who'll
jump when LB J and the Great
Society says "frog."
Who stands to lose? The com­mon
people, the farmers. But
they've always lost.
But demagoguery aside, Miss
Howard; what I cannot under­stand
is why we of the agrarian
south, we, in the economic
stronghold of northern capital,
we, who haven't had our own
government since President
Davis was taken prisoner, why
we must bleed to sustain the
Industrial Expansion System of
the North.
• We've been right well disci­plined
since the War, haven't
we? You have.. I'm still a
Rebel.
And I am also 1-A; I have
less than one month between
Auburn and the cannon's
mouth; and1 I can't help think­ing,
what right has a woman,
who won't come any nearer to
getting drafted than I will to
getting a diploma in the school
of Agriculture, What moral
right has she to wave the flag
and cry "War"!

ROOMMATES: THEIR CAUSE AND CURE
You'd think that with all the progress we haye made in
the education game, somebody would have found a cure
for roommates by now. But no. Roommates remain as big
a problem today as they were when Ethan Mather founded.
the first American college. ^, ,Q: ;
(Contrary to popular belief,'Harvard was not the first.
Mr. Mather started his institution some 100 years earlier.
And quite an institution it was, let me tell you! Mr. Mather
built schools of liberal arts, fine arts, dentistry and tan­ning.
He built a lacrosse stadium that seated 200,000.
Everywhere on campus was emblazoned the stirring Latin
motto CAVE MVSSl-"Watch out for moose." The stu­dent
union contained a bowling alley, a weighing ma­chine,
and a sixteen-chair barber shop.)
(It was this last feature—the barber shop—that, alas,
brought Mr. Mather's college to an early end. The student
body, being drawn chiefly from the nearby countryside,
was composed almost entirely of Pequot and Iroquois In­dians
who, alas, had no need of a barber shop. They .
braided the hair on top of their heads, and as for the hair on
their faces, they had none. The barber, Tremblatt Follicle
by name, grew so depressed staring day after day at 16 emp­ty
chairs that one day his mind gave way. Seizing his vibra­tor,
he ran outside and shook the entire campus till it crum­bled
to dust. This later became known as Pickett's Charge.)
But I digress. We were exploring ways for you and your
roommate to stop hating each other. This is admittedly
difficult but not impossible if you will both bend a bit,
give a little.
I remember, for example, my own college days (Berlitz
'08). My roommate was, I think you will allow, even less
agreeable than most. He was a Tibetan named Ringading
Whose native customs, while indisputably colorful, were
not entirely endearing. Mark you, I didn't mind so much
the gong he struck on the hour or the string of firecrack­ers
he set off on the half hour. I didn't even mind that he
singed chicken feathers every dusk and daybreak. What I
did mind was that he singed them in my hat.
To be fair, he was not totally taken with some of my
habits either—especially my hobby of collecting water. I
had no jars at the time, so I just had to stack the water
any-old-where.
Well, sir, things grew steadily cooler between Ringa-ding
and me, and they might actually have gotten ugly
had we not each happened to receive a package from home
one day. Ringading opened his package, paused, smiled
shyly at me, and offered me a gift.
"Thank you," I said. "What is it ?"
"Yak butter," he said. "You put it in your hair. In Ti­betan
we call it gree see kidstuff." i
"Well now, that's mighty friendly," I said and offered him
a gift from my package. "Now you must have one of mine."-
"Thank you," he said. "What is this called?"
"Personna Stainless Steel Razor Blades," I said.
"I will try one at once," he said. And did.
"Wowdow!" he cried. "Never have I had such a smooth
close, comfortable shave!"
"Ah, but the best is yet!" I cried. "For you will get
many, many smooth, close, comfortable shaves from your
Personna Blade—each one nearly as smooth, close, and
comfortable as the first!"
"Wowdow!" he cried.
"Moreover," I cried, "Personna Blades come both in'
Double Edge style and Injector style!"
"Sort of makes a man feel humble," he said.
"Yes," I said.
We were both silent then, not trusting ourselves to1
speak. Silently we clasped hands, friends at last, and I am
proud to say that Ringading and I remain friends to this
day. We exchange cards each Christmas and firecrackers
each Fourth of July.

Shattered Thoughts . . .
When the Miami Dolphins, the newest entry in the
American Football League, convene for practice ses­sions
this July, it'll almost seem like a gathering of
"Shug" Jordan trainees. No less than six former Au­burn
gridders — quarterback D i ck
Wood, guard Ken Rice, tackle Howard
Simpson, back John McGeever, line­backer
Jack Thornton and back
Franklin Fuller—will be scrapping for
positions with the squad.
Thornton and Fuller are rookies,
while the "old pros" were obtained by
Miami from other AFL teams in a re­cent
special draft used to stock the
club.
After Auburn's Dec. 17 battle with Ole Miss in the
Liberty Bowl, then defensive coach Hal Herring
meandered among the locker room crowd telling each
of the team members goodbye.
The seniors weren't surprised, it was to be expected
after their last game under him. But
the sophomores sure were.
And so were a lot of other Auburn-ites
41 days later.
Joe Newton, All-SEC center for
coach Bill Lynn last year, is playing
on the Baltimore Bullet's "taxi" squad.
Joe is hoping to be the first Auburn
contribution to the National Basket­ball
Association.
But he'd better hurry or he might

As Tigers Rout
Rebels 70-55
By ROY RILEY
Just like Old Man Riv­er,
Lee DeFore keeps
rolling along. DeFore,
who is destined to put his
name on the Auburn rec-
.ord books, moved closer
to a host of Tiger scoring
marks as he scored 21
points in the 70-55 Au­burn
victory over Missis­sippi
Saturday night.
DeFore, who already holds
the record for the most points
scored in a career with 1,197,
tied a record that stood for
12 years, and came within
the shadow of another with
his performance Saturday.
In 1954, Bob Miller tallied
426 points during the course
of the season, and that record
withstood the scoring on­slaught
of such greats as Rex
Frederick, Layton Johns and
other shot masters of the
past.
Lee tied the old record Sat­urday
and with eight games
remaining, should move a-head
of Miller's record by a
considerable distance.
The Tigers started slowly
against the Rebs and led 15-
14 with 8:31 remaining in the
first half. The only field goals
the Tigers could manage
came from DeFore and Buis-
ASSISTANT HIRED
The signing of Bill Oliver,
head football coach at Gun-tersville
High School, to
Auburn's coaching staff was
announced Monday night
by Jeff Beard, athletic di­rector.
Oliver, a 1962 graduate of
the University of Alabama
and a member of Alabama's
1961 national championship
football team, was hired to
help fill the gap caused by
the losses of coaches Hal
Herring, B u c k Bradberry
and Dick McGowin.
"We are certainly happy
that Bill is joining our
staff," said Jordan. "He was
a fine student and football
player at Alabama and is
an excellent high school
coach."
Jordan added that he has
been impressed by the way
his newest assistant ; has
handled himself since be­coming
a coach. "I am im­pressed
with his poise, his
straightforward m a n n e r ,
the discipline of his team
and his potential as a
coach," said Jordan.
Oliver will take over his
Auburn position Feb. 15.
According to Jordan, Au­burn
will probably hire one
more assistant before the
start of spring training,
April 4, and possibly an­other
later in the year.

Ron Overcash, Former Major Leaguer:
Trades Mitt For Microscope
By TY COPPINGER
Desire and determina­tion
are known to be im­portant
factors for suc­cess
in sports. An exam­ple
of this is Ron Over-cash.
Overcash, who is presently
working toward a degree in
Auburn's School of Veterin­ary
Medicine, is a former
professional baseball player.
He played four years in the
Kansas City Athletics organi­zation,
but was never sup­posed
to have played at all.
After a great junior year
at Clearwater High School in
Clearwater, Fla., as a right-hand
throwing, left-hand hit­ting,
first baseman, Ron suf­fered
a broken right should­er
in a football game his
senior year. Doctors told him
his arm could never be raised
above his shoulder. He prov­ed
them wrong.
"I began to work with
weights to strenghen it," he
said, "and since I couldn't
use it, I began to throw with
my left hand." A few months
later he could throw nearly
as well left-handed as he
could right.
SCOUTS STOPPED
"The scouts came around
quite a bit during my junior
year, but after the' shoulder
injury, I hardly ever saw
one," he said.
Evidently D a v e Fuller,
baseball coach at the Uni­versity
of Florida, had seen
him. He offered Overcash a
scholarship and the offer was
accepted while Overcash was
in the hospital recovering
from an operation on the in­jured
shoulder.

Gymnasts Lose To Furman
By MEL PULLIAM
The Auburn,gymnastic team traveled to Green­ville,
S.C. Saturday,; looking for a win over Furman
University, but the Tigers couldn't quite make it, fall-ng
161-129.
Coach Coach Ed Bengtson simply stated, "We didn't
do too well." However, Tom
Reeves took second place in
vaulting competition, while
Aubrey Bowles and Steve
Sheffield rated third place in
floor exercise and rings, re­spectively.
Coach Bengston praised
Bowles, saying, "In all a-round
competition, Bowles
had 41 points and Furman's
Bob Fay, who ranks fourth
in the NCAA regional com­petition
beat h i m by only
three and one-half points.
Thirty-one points in tram­poline
exercises had to be
forfeited because the Auburn
squad did not have sufficient
practice to enter into compe­tition.
The gymnastic squad
can use the trampolines in
Alumni Gym once a week.
This lack of equipment for
practice brought about the
forfeit.
Friday night, the gymnasts
meet Northeastern Louisiana
in Monroe, La. "They are
probably one of the top ID
teams in the country," said
Bengston.
Speaking of the competi­tion
that his team competes
against, Bengston said, "We
can give any team around a
g o o d , respectable meet."
However, he pointed out that
lack of adequate facilities
and scholarships hampered
the success of the club. Also,
most of the boys are sopho­mores
and freshmen. "When
we get a little experience
under our belt, we should do
better."
From.this point things be­gan
to look better. He had a
good freshman year at Flor­ida,
so good that the Phila­delphia
Phillies sent him to
Canada to play in a semi-pro
summer league. He lost
the batting title of the league
on the final day of the sea­son,
i
As a sophomore in 1960 he
was selected as All-SEC and
broke the runs batted in rec­ord
for Florida players. This
record was broken in 1964
by Tommy Moore, a second
cousin of Overcash. Overcash
has since been inducted into
University of Florida Sports
Hall of Fame.
After this season he signed
with Kansas City scout Jack
Sanford for a bonus in ex­cess
of $50,000. He was sent
to Sioux City, Iowa in the
Class B league. After 90
games he had powered 13
home runs and was among
the top 10 sluggers in the
league.
'BREAKS' BEGAN
Toward the end of the '60
season, the parent club call­ed
him up to protect his con-t
r a c t . Then unfortunate
events began to show up. The
night he was called up he
hammered two home runs for
Sioux City, but on an attempt
to cash a pop fly, fell and
broke his ankle. He reported
to the major leagues on
crutches and spent the re­mainder
of the season on the
bench.
The Athletics sent him to
Florida to play in the Winter
Instructional L e a g u e . He
finished the season in the top
five in home runs and runs
batted in.
Next stop was Shreveport,
La. in the Southern Associa­tion,
a Class AA league. This
was a mediocre year, but in
1962 with Albuquerque, N.M.,
he hit at a .288 clip with 70
RBI's, although missing the
last part of the season with
a broken hand. This injury
enabled him to return to
Florida to continue his edu­cation.
The next year, after a suc­cessful,
season- at Bingham-tdn,
N.Y., a broken foot near
the end of the campaign made
it possible for him to get
back to school again.
"After two seasons with in­juries,
I realized that some­one
was telling me to get out
—so I did," Overcash said
with a smile.
Ron, an avid supporter of
the Fellowship of Christian
Athletes, teaches a Sunday
School class at the Lakeview
Baptist Church in Auburn,
and was elected vice-presi­dent
of his vet freshman
class.

Trackmen Travel To Montgomery,
Compete For SEC Indoor Crown
By JIM DYKES
The Auburn track team
traveled to Montgomery's
Coliseum Saturday for
the annual SEC indoor
championship. The Tiger
thinclads will be facing
opponents from all 11 of
the SEC members.
Tennessee, t h e runaway
victor last year, is again the
strong favorite. Tiger mentor
Mel Rosen believes that al­though
UT is favored, the
meet will be a lot closer.
Inclement w e a t h e r has
hampered T i g e r workouts,
but all t h e participating
schools have experienced the
same handicap, so lack of
practice will not be a major
factor in Coach Rosen's opin­ion.
When asked about Auburn's
chances, Rosen voiced both
optimism and enthusiasm. He
feels that with the talent the
Tiger squad has, they should
be in the top echelon of per­formers
and place high in the
standings. With Tom Chris­topher
in the pole vault,
Wade Curington in the broad
jump, and the mile relay
team composed of Curington,
Phil Swearingin, Pete Ginter,
and Joe Bush, the Tigers can
place.

The American Youth Plan*
We call the idea the American Youth Plan,
and; what it means is this:
American will pay ha,lf the jet coach fare
for anybody12 through 2t\. .
Jt's that simple.
All you have to do is prove your age (a birth
certificate or any other legal document will do)
and buy a #53 identification card.
We date and stamp the card, and this en­titles
you to a half-fare ticket a,t any American
Airlines counter.
The only catch is that you might have to
wait before you get aboard; the fare is on a
standby basis.
"Standby" simply means that the pas­sengers
with reservations, and the servicemen
get on before you do.
Then the plane's yours.
The American Youth Plan is good year
round except for a few days before and after
the Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas
rushes.
If you can't think of any places you'd like
to go offhand, you might see a travel agent
for a few suggestions.
We can't add anything else.

Fulbright Scholarships
Are Now Available
Unusually attractive opportunities for Fulbright-Hays lec­tureships
and research awards are still available for 1966-67,
according to Dr. Eugene Current-Garcia, Fulbright advisor here.
A considerable number of States during the period of
the lectureships are open to ex­perienced
undergraduate teach­ers
in agriculture, American
civilization, history and litera­ture,
anthropology, archaeology,
biochemistry, biology, botany,
chemistry, economics, and busi­ness
administration, education,
engineering, English literature,
geography, geology, German
literature, home economics,
journalism, law, library science,
mathematics, pharmacy, phys­ics,
physiology, political sci­ence,
psychology, sociology and
zoology.
Although the lectureships are
normally offered for a full aca­demic
year, some are for one
semester only or even for the
summer months, Dr. Current-
Garcia said. Openings are at
universities in many of the
principal cities of the world.
Most of the awards provide
for a supplemental dollar grant
to assist the grantee in meeting

Pharmacy Gets
NSF Funds
A grant of $23,000 for sup­port
of basic research in the
School of Pharmacy has been
received from the National
Science Foundation, President
Harry M. Philpott announced
this week.
The study will center on the
effects of certain compounds
on the metabolic processes of
the body, according to Dr. Paul
J. Fritz, associate professor of
pharmacology and director of
the study.
A number of compounds will
be subjected to studies for their
metabolic effects, Dr. Fritz said.
In addition, efforts will be
made to determine if the com­pounds,
or any of the enzymes
forming them, can be found in
normal tissues. If detected,
further studies would be made
to determine their effect ori the
tissue, he explained.
Like most NSF sponsored re­search,
Dr. Fritz pointed out,
the Auburn pharmacy study is
basic in nature and is conduct­ed
primarily for the new in­formation
it might provide.
Two graduate students, Tom
Edwards and Brain Wright, will
be working with Dr. Fritz,
utilizing information from the
studies for their theses.

'Higher Education' Granted
$2 Million From Government
The State Commission on Higher Education has recommended
to the U.S. Office of Education the allocation of grants totaling
$2,064,725 to Auburn Dr. Austin R. Meadows, state superintend­ent
of education, announced this week.
Title I of the Higher Edu­cation
Facilities Act makes
available such appropriations
to states to be used in the ex­pansion
of physical facilities in
higher education. Priority is
given to the areas of science,
libraries, and languages.
The grants recommended
would be used in constructing
three major facilities to be
financed in the main form Au­burn's
portion of the last build­ing
bond issued provided by the
Legislature.
Of the total, $1,327,741 would
be used in the construction of a
teacher education-liberal arts
building. The multi-story com­plex,
which the Board of
Trustees seeks to name for its
senior member Dr. Paul S.
Haley, will be located near the
center of the campus. To cost
an estimated $6,487,942, the
building will serve both the
School of Education and the
School of Science and Litera­ture.
An additional $685,597 is
recommended for construction
of physical education, facilities
to be included in the audi­torium-
physical education com­plex.
Plans are nearing com­pletion
for this facility for
which development costs are
estimated at $5,357,667.
The School of Veterinary
Medicine, would receive $51,-
387 to be applied to construc­tion
costs of new facilities.
These will enable the school
to complete re-location at a
site some two miles from the
main campus. Estimated cost
of the project is $3,268,393.
"These grants would help
Auburn significantly in pro­viding
the badly needed facili­ties
to strengthen its instruc­tional
programs," President
Harry M. Philpott said upon re­ceiving
notice of the recom­mended
grants. "By using them
to suplement the funds receiv­ed
from the state bond issue
provided by our last Legisla­ture,
we could be assured of
providing our students with
some of the finest facilities in
this region. This would be a
major step forward in the
strengthening of our education
and liberal arts program at Au­burn."
Auburn was recently award­ed
$139,179 under the Act for
the establishment of a langu­age
laboratory in the School of
Science and Literature.

VIOLATION OF CITY ORDINANCES
CAUSES SANITATION PROBLEM
By FRED BURDESHAW
Recent violations of City Ordinances have cause a health and
sanitation problem; according to Auburn City Manager. H. R.
Thornton.
Thornton says that viola­tions
of sections 11-8 and 11-9
of the Auburn Health • and
Sanitation ordinances have been
frequent. These two sections
state that garbage and trash
will not be placed on streets,
sidewalks or alleys and that it
will be placed in cans.
Thornton said although the

city has been lenient in dealing
with this problem in the past,
citations for court appearances
will be in order in cases of vio­lations
in the future. Auburn
City Police Officials say the
maximum fine for these viola­tions
is $100.
According to Thornton, wa­tertight
containers are actually
required for trash and garbage,
but at this time his main con­cern,
"is getting it off the
ground and into the can."
Students in apartments,
boarding houses, off-campus
dorms and even fraternity
houses have been frequent
violators, Thornton said.
Thornton added that he was
aware of the problems of the
Auburn, student but, "The coun-
&lriieriahd I are interested in a
clean Auburn. Our police force
consists of 17 men. The Auburn
students number 12,000. The
city has to ask the student to
obey, the law and that's what
I'm doing."
'Wafer' Grant Announced
Locating water in some of
Alabama's higher and drier
regions and the effect of in­dustrial
wastes on streams are
problems which will receive
$37,000 worth of research at
Auburn through grants from
the Water Resources Research
Institute.
A geophysical survey for
ground water in the Piedmont
area for which WRRI Director
James C. Warman is principal
investigator will continue over
a six month period, supported
by a grant from the Office of
Water Resources Research, De­partment
of the Interior, and
matched by funds from the In­stitute
at Auburn and the
Geological Survey of Alabama.
Dr. Harold R. Henry, de­partment
of engineering me­chanics,
University of Alabama,
is principal investigator in the
second project recently an­nounced
by the administering
WRRI. His study deals with the
effects of temperature and
density gradients upon the
movement of contaminants in
saturated aquifers. The WRRI
grant financing this study is
matched by funds from the
Geological Survey of Alabama
and the University of Alabama.
"At a recent meeting of di­rectors
of the nation's 51 Insti­tutes
in Washington, it was
disclosed that $2 million in
federal matching funds is
available for support of water
related research," Warman
stated. "The WRRI here at Au­burn

and agencies doing
Work in this' field of study and

The Performing Art Cries For Help
Dramatic Scene: A Department In Distress
NOW IT'S THE DRAMA THEATRE
Once it was a confederate hospital; once it was a hut for the YWCA; once it was
a Presbyterian church. The 114-year-old brick structure lights up the night as ener­getic
members of the Auburn Players practice for their professional productions. It
presents a problem today as the progress o f the performing arts runs into the obstacle
of a building well past its time.
"AT LEAST I'M LEARNING TO PROJECT MY VOICE"
Player Kandy Walker has to belt out her song in the "Mati Hari" scene of the
forthcoming production of the Auburn Players, "Little Mary Sunshine." The acoustics
aren't good, but as one director said, "We make the most of a bad situation. The
actors must learn to project their voices."
