Alumni Giving
Inaugurated
By Foundation
The A u b u r n University
Foundation, which completed
its initial phase of the Auburn
Development Program in 1963,
has now launched a new pro­gram—
Alumni Annual Giving.
Details of the program were
completed at the Homecoming,
meeting of the foundation's
board of directors and an­nounced
in the December is­sue
of The Auburn Alumnews.
The annual giving program,
Auburn's first, will be launch­ed
by mail early in 1965 and
will be restricted to approxi­mately
the first four months of
the year.
Closely coordinated with the
Auburn Alumni Association,
annual giving will be admin­istered
under the Auburn Uni­versity
Foundation, a non­profit
corporation established
to receive and manage all gifts
to Auburn University.
Through annual giving, the
Foundation will lay emphasis
on unrestricted funds. It will,
however, observe the wishes of
any alumnus designating a use
for his gift.
Among the immediate objec­tives
of the giving program is
the creation of Alumni Pro­fessorships—
a system of sup­plementing
salaries of selected
professors of outstanding me­rit.
The Auburn Foundation di­rectors,
in their consideration
of the new program, noted that
annual giving is an establish­ed
or rapidly spreading prac­tice
among alumni throughout
the nation in both private and
public institutions.
ing committee told the press.
"We're still looking," he con­tinued.
No indication was given as
to when the screening commit­tee
would submit a final re­commendation
or when the
Board would meet again.
In an unconfirmed account
in the Montgomery Advertiser
several weeks ago three names
were reportedly agreed upon
by the five-member screening
committee r to submit to Gov.
George C. Wallace with the re­commendation
that he call a
board meeting early in 1965 to
name a new president. They
included Dr. E. T. York, pro­vost
for agriculture at the
University of Florida, a nd
former director of the Agri­cultural
Extension Service
here; Dr. Harry M. Philpott,
vice president of the Univer­sity
of Florida for academic
affairs; and Dr. D. W. Colvard,
president of Mississippi State
University.

Registrar Lists
Saturday Classes
By GARY WINSETT
Three more Saturday class
days are scheduled during
winter and spring quarters ac­cording1
• to Registrar Charles
Edwards.
They w i l l be Saturday,
March 13, (during final exam­inations)
this quarter, and
March 27 and May 29 of the
spring quarter.
Edwards pointed out that 48
class days are necessary in
each quarter. He said that in
order for spring quarter to
terminate by the first of June,
Saturday class days are neces­sary.
Edwards said that if com­puter
registration were used,
the registration period would
be shortened and this might
eliminate the necessity of Sat­urday
classes.

A change in the law which
governs the University Aca-d
e m i c Honesty Committee
brought about the new ruling,
according f to M. C. Huntley,
Dean of Faculties.
The old law gave two possible
vedicts to the Academic Hones­ty
Committee for use in hearing
cheating cases. The person in
question could be ruled not
guilty. But if ruled guilty, the
only punishment allowed for
was a zero for the course with a
notation to the effect on the
students' permanent record.
An addition to the law as
passed by the Council of Deans
reads: "In case of an appeal,
the Academic Honesty Commit­tee
may recommend to the
President upholding of the as­signment
of the grade of zero,
recommend acquittal, or recom­mend
the assignment of some
other grade than zero."
The addition was made fol­lowing
a recommendation by a
committee composed of four
past chairmen of the Academic
Honesty • Committee, led by
Dean Huntley.
The addition is inserted at the
end of the old law. The re­mainder

is one of the areas of
greatest concern on poverty
and overpopulation," Harry
Hooper, chairman of the event,

Fire Breaks Out
In Dormitory B
By JERRY BROWN
A washing machine motor
caught fire in the- basement
laundry room of Dorm B at
about 6 p.m. Sunday night,
causing a minor fire in the
dormitory.
There was no damage, ac­cording
to fire department au­thorities.
.
Co-ed Corey Wilson, one of
the persons who discovered the
fire, said the laundry room
was filled with smoke and the
dorm was reeking with the
odor of' what was apparently
burning rubber insulation.
The head resident, Mrs.
Hines, after being informed,
called the Auburn Fire De­partment.
Two fire trucks and
three police patrol cars were
rushed to the scene of the fire.
Mrs. Hines said the fire did
not appear serious enough to
call an ordered fire drill but it
did merit the attention of the
fire department.
' The firemen remained for
about 20 minutes and investi­gated
the dorm for other evi­dences
of fire.

CHAMPAGNE COMPLEX
With Nancy Knowles, Kelly Collum, Bob Kncwles
Players Will Present
'Champagne Complex'
By JERRY BROWN
The Auburn Players will present Leslie Stevens' light­headed
"Champagne Complex," a three act farce, beginning next
Tuesday at Players Theater.
The office became vacant
when the former Secretary,
Frances Hardwich, recently
married, resigned since she
would no longer be enrolled in
Auburn.
Renneker explained the ap­pointment
procedure by quot­ing
from Article VI, Section 3
of the Student Body Constitu­tion,
"If the office of either
Secretary or Treasurer of the
Student Body shall become
vacant after the fall quarter
elections, it shall be filled in a
special election held simul­taneously
with the fall quarter
elections; but if it should be­come
vacant at any other time,
the President of the Student
Body shall fill the vacancy by
appointment with the appro­val
of two-thirds of the mem­bership
of the Student Senate."
Qualifications for Secretary
include either a 1.0 over all
average or a. 1.5 average for
the preceeding quarter. The
student must also have com­pleted
four-fifths of the total
hourly load as required by his
Dean for five quarters in resi­dence.
Admission for students . is
free; reserve seat tickets are
available now. Show time is
8:15 p.m. in the Players Theater.
The plot centers around the
played by Nancy Knowles. It
seems that when she drinks
champagne, she has an uncon­trollable
urge to take off her
clothes—so she does!
Her fiance, a stuffy young
executive played by Kelly
Collum, persuades his disturbed
maiden to be analyzed by his
psychiatrist uncle, played by
Bob Knowles. She falls in
love with the uncle and the
stage is set for the comedy.
There follows a pattern of
interludes—including "stimula­ting"
analysis, a "revealing"
drunk scene, and several side­splitting,
lover-in-closet rou­tines.
All this is'culminated by
a smash finish.
This cast of three, of the finest
dramatists on the Auburn cam­pus,
who have each appeared
in scores of plays here and
elsewhere, worked during the
holidays to make "Champagne.
Complex" a most delightful
comedy adventure.. It is direct­ed
by • Bob Knowles and Kelly
Collum.
The play will close Saturday,
Jan. 30.

the topic of his talk yet, ac­cording

states' rights and for his presi­dential
campaign.
Admission to the speech is
free to anyone interested but

Dean Huntley t o l d The
Plainsman, "I am in favor of
the change because there might
very well be variations in
cheating and some student
might be punished to a greater
degree under the old law than
they are guilty."
The Office of Institutional
Research is now doing research
on the number of times students
have been dropped from a class
with a grade of zero for cheat­ing
and the number of cheating
cases appealed.
No data is available on the
number of cheating cases which
have not been appealed.
"From what information I
have so far, a relatively small
number of cases have been ap­pealed,"
Dr. Tincher said. The
Office of Institutional Research
would like to find out exactly
how many students have been
accused of cheating without ap­pealing."
Dr. Tincher said that he felt
many instructors mete out
their own punishment rather
than have a student have a
notation on his permanent rec­ord.
Data investigated to date in­dicates
that only 28 cases have
been appealed to Academic
Honesty since its founding
Winter Quarter of 1961.
Seventeen of the decisions
supported the instructor, four
students were reprimanded (a
power the committee did not
legally have under the old law)
and seven were either not guilty
or there was insufficient evi­dence.
The School of Science and
Literature had 23 of the 28
cases brought before the Com­mittee.
This comprises 82 per
cent of all cases.

Foreign Student Tours Are Planned
By Student Government Committee
By PAT GOLINVEAUX
The Foreign Relations Committee, which operates through
the Student Government Association, is now doing research
for another Foreign Student Tour.
"As of yet nothing definite
has been planned for the sum­mer
tour," says committee
chairman Bill Current-Garcia.
However, the committee hopes
to have a tour similar to the
one of last summer.
In the previous tour two
foreign students from Auburn
made a 90-day tour of the
United States, which included
all major sections of America.
Some Of the States and cities
visited were New Orleans,
Houston, the Grand Canyon,
Los Vegas, California, and Bos­ton.
About ten foreign students
submitted applications for the
tour. From this group the two
who attended were selected on
the basis of their sincere desire
to learn more about American 4
ctistomg, people and culture.'
The committee hopes to make
this tour an annual affair, but
if this is impossible an alter­nate
suggestion is to -take all
the foreign students on trips
around Alabama and neighbor­ing
states.

Female Engineer Finds Success
In A 'Men Only' Profession
In Woman's struggle for equal recognition, combining a
I career with a family may make up for unequal salary "rights,"
I according to a young woman who hopes to prove women can
J successfully enter fields marked "Men Only," and still be
I a woman.
Pat Murphy, a senior in the
I School of Engineering, is not
belligerent feminist. Working
on two degrees simultaneously,
she has already earned respect
and admiration. In March she
will graduate with a B.S. in
aeronautical administration. In
four more quarters she will re­ceive
a B.S. in aerospace engi­neering.
Just recently Pat presented a
paper before the Southeastern
| Regional Conference of the
American Institute of Astro-nautical
Aeronautics in Atlanta
and was awarded the "Out­standing
Lecturer Award." l
Pat is editor of the "Auburn
Engineer," a professional cam­pus
journal with a paid circula­tion.
She is the first woman to
be so honored, and puts out the
25 to 40 page magazine eight
times a year.
Pat is the only woman repre­sentative
on the Auburn Engi­neering
Council, is currently
vice-president of the Auburn
chapter, AIAA. Also active
in campus ! activities, Pat is a

sorority, finding time for her
special hobbies of writing,
swimming and cooking.
The blue-eyed blonde was
also the first woman to be en­rolled
in the Air Force ROTC at
Auburn, taking the same pro­gram
as the men, with the ex­ception
of drill.
How do the men—there is
one girl in one class with her
—accept her? At first, she ad­mits,
"it was difficult. They
figure when you enroll you
must be looking for a husband."
But Pat's grades, backed up by
the college tests which pointed
to success in engineering, prov­ed
figuring could be wrong.
How well Pat has been ac­cepted
was shown this summer
when an automobile accident
hospitalized her for a month.
Her classmates typed notes for,
all her classes and took them to
her. Later she took nine
quizzes in five days, finishing
with a 2.8 average. -

Change In An Important Area
/
The relaxing of Auburn's too-rigid
cheating punishment rules by the Coun­cil
of Deans finds great merit in this
corner. Many groups and individuals
on the campus, including this news­paper,
have repeatedly called for such
a change.
Under the old rules, if a student was
found guilty of cheating, there was only
one rigid punishment—a grade of zero
in the course and a "dropped-for-cheat-ing"
notation on his permanent record.
Such a rule left no room for the gray
area between innocence and flagrant
violation. Consider the student who
honestly does not realize he is cheating,
or the normally honest man who cheats
under the heat of the moment. Such
acts cannot be condoned, but perman­ent
branding is not a fit punishment.
A "dropped" notation will follow the
student for the rest of his life.
Under the new rules, the Academic
Honesty Committee may "recommend
the assignment of some grade other
than zero.'' This would leave the de­cision
of degree of guilt and the degree
of punishment to the Academic Honesty
Committee.
Now that the rules, by the addition
of one sentence, have been so drastical­ly
upgraded, we trust that the faculty
will enforce the cheating rules rather
than mete out its own punishment or in
some cases to ignore the rules entirely.
In many cases in the past professors
have simply dropped students they be­lieved
to be cheating with a grade of
"F." This works to the advantage of
the students in the "gray area" but is
unfair to the innocent student. If he
is not formally accused of cheating, he
cannot appeal to the Academic Honesty
Committee.
Changes such as this one are needed
in many areas of campus life. It is
good to see that a start has been made
in such an important area.
Politicians, Censorship And Textbooks
Throughout history censorship has
been the primary tool of ambitious poli­ticians,
super patriots and others who
would impose their own particular
brand of thinking on those about them.
In our own time censirsjtiip is a primary
danger to the freedom to know and
to think.
Textbook censorship is one of the
most dangerous of all the forms of
"' thought control. To deny the young
mind the right of exposure to a wide
range of thought and ideas is essential­ly
to cripple that mind.
Thus it was disturbing to note that
our own governor, state legislature and
even the Alabama Board of Education
may be treading dangerously close to
a form of censorship.
On the one hand, a bill passed the
last session of the state Legislature
creating a special legislative study com­mittee
to look into the content of state
school books.
Indications are that this committee
intends to be active. And should they
exercise the power to ban "offensive"
text books from Alabama schoqls, every
school child in the state could be taught
according to the prejudices of a small
group of politicians. This is frighten­ing,
to say the least.
Alabama already has a State Textbook
Committee composed of teachers and
school administrators from throughout
the state. They are obviously better
qualified to perform the task of text­book
selection.
On the other side of Capitol Hill, the
Board of Education, meeting with Gov.
George Wallace, has agreed unanimous­ly
to screen authors of Alabama text
books for possible membership in, or
connection with, subversive organiza­tions.
This newspaper does not consider it­self
subversive, and definitely does not
support a Communist line of thinking,
but let us look deeper into the matter.
Asked what prompted this move, the
Governor said he had received "numer-r
ous communications from individuals'
and organizations" warning of writers
with Communist-front connections.
Although we have no doubt that
everyone concerned means well, ex­perience
has shown what well meaning
politicians, pushed by ultra-patriotic
scare groups can do.
Very often anti-Communism will turn
into anti-everything-ism. In some cases
all mention of such subjects as the
United Nations and social security have
been deleted from textbooks because
influential pressure groups have brand­ed
them "unAmerican" or "socialistic."
The Daughters of the American
Revolution, listed by Governor Wallace
as one of the organizations from which
he had received communications, lists
as "objectionable" such noted authors
as John Steinbeck, Ernest Hemingway
and Allan Nevins.
As we have said, we have no doubt
that few in Montgomery intend for
things to go so far. But the question
is, where will it stop once it has started?
An even better question is just who has
the right to decide what we are to read.
Is it the politician backed and prod­ded
by powerful pressure grouDS? Is
it even the politician acting on his own?
Or is it the trained educator acting in­dependently
in the best interests of the
student.
Those of Us at the university level
should pay particular attention to the
evolving answers to these questions.
What is done at the secondary level may
eventually work its way up.
Strength, And The Patience Of Job
It has been sometimes confusing,
sometimes amusing, but more often dis­turbing
to watch the great flurry of
activity surrounding the naming of a
new Auburn president.
The greatest excitement so far in the
campaign (Unfortunately we must call
it a campaign, for it is being treated as
such by far too many people) came over
the Christmas holidays. The Montgom­ery
Advertiser quoted an "excellent au­thority"
as saying the Board of Trustees
screening committee had narrowed the
choice to three men.
Frank P. Samford, head of the screen­ing
committee, denied the story and
said it was "just damnable . . . (it)
threw in as many monkey wrenches as
could be done."
The Montgomery Advertiser is a re­liable
newspaper and we have no doubt
that it had a trusted source. Whether its
information came about through a de­liberate
lie, a slip of the tongue or a
political maneuver we do not know. In
any case the damage has been done.
We. have a great deal of sympathy for
Mr. Samford and the screening commit­tee.
That is about all we can offer.
We urge them to take on the patience
of Job, the strength of Samson and the
perseverance of the ancient Vikings.
Before this whole thing is over they
may need all three.
Editor's Views . . .
What Did The Man Say?
The South Will Know Soon
By Don Phillips
Half the American televiewing public must
have blinked its eyes at one point during Presi­dent
Lyndon Johnson's State of the Union message and asked,
"what did he say?" l
However, holes were riddled
in the unholy coalition by 'the
recent Congressional elections,
and the repeal of section 14-B,
along with many other previ­ously
"impossible" measures,
now seems assured of passage.
As cne labor leader put it,
"According to a very careful
survey, we feel that with Presi­dent
Johnson's assistance re­peal
of 14-B would be a walka­way.
With his benevolent neu­trality,
we could still do it."
It looks as though the labor
leaders will get at least neu­trality.
Repeal of 14-B will hit
Southern employers hardest.
The majority of "right-to-work"
laws are in effect in
Southern states. For years the
South has advertised this lack
of "union domination" in at­tracting
Northern industry.
While this attractive power
may have been good for the
Southern "economy," it has
basically been bad for the
laboring man, both North and
South. The Northern laborer
has lost jobs to the South, while
the southern laborer has been
told he should be so happy to
have a job he shouldn't worry
about substandard wages and
housing.
The mayor of one southern
town actually bragged to one
Connecticut company a few
years ago that "Our wonderful
labor will lower average hourly
average wage rates from 50 to
95 cents below Northern states."
With the inevitable coming of
strong unions, whatever faults
they may have, after the repeal
of section 14-B, the South will
have to find something other
than cheap labor to attract its
bread- and butter.
Someone had better do some
planning . . . quick.
His historic statement was
simply that he would "propose
changes in tSe^ Taft-Hartley
Act, including section 14-B."
The bulk of the American
public probably has little notion
of what the Taft-Hartley Act
itself is, much less section 14-B.
Vet organized labor's major
effort on Capitol Hill this year
will be repeal of this contro­versial
section which, expressed
in simplest form, allows states
to enact the so-called "right-to-
work" laws.
Taft-Hartley, passed in 1947
over President Harry Truman's
veto, took much of the steam
out of labor's organizing drive.
The law banned the closed
shop, under which employers
can hire only union members.
However, it did sanction union
shop agreements, which allow
employers to hire anyone, but
require new employees to join
a union.
The fly in the ointment as far
as far as unions are concerned
is section 14-B. This section
allows any state to ban the
union shop by passing a "right-to-
work" law. In other words,
the worker has the right to
work whether he joins a union
or not.
Before Taft-Hartley was even
passed there was a flurry of
activity in various state legis­latures
to pass laws forbidding
compulsory union membership.
Ten "right-to-work" laws were
passed before the act became
law, and between 1951 and 1963
eight more were passed.
Until just recently section
14-B was considered a sacred
cow, something no one serious­ly
thought could be repealed.
The unholy coalition of Re­publicans
and Southern Demo­crats
would see to that.

U.S. Can Win Viet Nam

Procrastination . . .
Search For New President
Needs Early Completion
By Mary Whitley
With a special session of the Legislature—
devoted solely to education looming largely
in the near future the question in the minds of many Auburn
students is not WHO will be named President of Auburn Uni­versity,
but rather, WHEN will he be named?
Early in J u n e President
Ralph Brown Draughon ex­pressed
his desire to resign
from the Presidency to make
room for a younger man. He
realized the problems created
by his leaving and consented to
remain at Auburn until a suc­cessor
could be found.
Filling President Draughon's
shoes will be a large order for
any of t h e well-qualified
aspirants reviewed by t he
Presidential screening commit­tee
of the Board of Trustees.
Herculean task though it may
be, it must begin soon if Au­burn
is to remain a vital, en­thusiastic
institution.
We understand that the
Board is seeking only the
best for Auburn and feel, as
they do, that careful delibera­tion
of candidates is imperative
in reaching the right deci­sion.
However, we fear that
"indecision" may result in no
decision in the near future thus
placing Auburn's future in a
"toss-up" situation.
Dr. Draughon may hesitate
(and rightly so) to institute
new programs or policies in the '
immediate future feeling that
"any minute the new man will
come in and revise them," or

"this might set an awkward
precedent." Thus, his indeci­sion
would become contagious
and spread to every nook and
cranny of 'The Loveliest Vil­lage'
with the entire Univer­sity
getting nowhere fast.
Decision-m a k i n g at the
Board of Trustees level at any
time, in any situation can be
difficult but, to alleviate the
halting of progress of the Uni­versity
one of two things must
happen: either the group, fail­ing
to reach a decision on any
one candidate can seek new
men to be considered or some­one
within the grouD must as­sume
leadership, clarify the
problems and concentrate on
reaching a decision. Otherwise,
cooperation—the purpose of
the group—disintegrates and
the Auburn presidential con­test
is at a stalemate.
The man selected president
should possess vitality, cour­age,
and a keen eye toward the
future devlopment of eachand
all of Auburn's nine schools.
He must be a politician, a
coordinator, a decision-maker
who will strive to preserve the
unity of Auburn—faculty, stu­dents
a n d personnel—while
encouraging growth, research,
and new ideas. His physics
professors may be Nobel prize
winners but this distinction
will not balance inadequacies
of insufficient research mater­ial
in the library or the exis­tence
of squalid housing con­ditions
for men students forced
to live off-campus due to lack
of University-provided hous­ing.
He must have- foremost in
his eyes the goal of encourag­ing
experts with their new
ideas to come to Auburn
while trying to secure for them
adequate recompense for their
services. He must be the poli­tician
who can encourage and
transmit public support for the
University while interpreting
the University to those who
support it. He must be the co­ordinator
who seeks vitality
within the institution through
healthy conflict generated by
He is ruthless. Fear is his
weapon. He will tortue and ob­tain
answers. But he will sel­dom
divulge information him­self.
Most of all the Viet Cong
guerilla is dedicated.
In South Viet Nam the Viet
Cong have been following Mao
Tse Tung's model for guerilla
warfare as closely as Mao him­self
followed his own in his
dark, uncertain days in the
mountains of China. The first
phase is the individual and the
small group. The second is the
platoon and sometimes compa­ny
level of operations. And the
third is battallion operation
using heavy weapons.
The third phase appears to be
developing in ¥tet Nam. For
,jpme . month§„_$ie Viet C ong
•have'Vbeeii using mortars,' r e -
"^coifess rifles and howitzers.
And last week the Viet Cong
attacked in regimental strength
at Bingh Gia.
The war in Viet Nam can go
on forever in phase one or two.
It largely depends on how long
impatient Americans will stick
with the program. But phase
three requires that there be a
victor. The French army will
likely never forget that phase
three demands victory.
The French learned this at
Dien Bien Phu in 1954. While
they prepared for a battalion
sized'operation in the area they
failed to realize that the time
had come when the Viet Minn
would attack in battalion and
larger strength with heavy
weapons. So when the Battle
for Dien Bien Phu began the
battalion-size operation mush­roomed.
The very capable
French troops found themselves
surrounded, with no supply
lines, and facing great numbers.
And their opponents had su­perior
weapons.
Mao's third phase had ex­tinguished
the spark of French
Colonialism in Indo-China. The
unexpectant French were
caught off balance when the
ragged Viet Minh were sud­denly
transformed into a well
supplied army capable of carry­ing
on sustained operations
with heavy equipment.
Most American military men
are totally opposed to with­drawing
from the embattled lit­tle
country. Some will welcome
the third phase as a phase in
which we can win. We must
not be caught off-guard because
if our military is prepared we
can win our Dien Bien Phu.
It takes companies and bat­talions
of U.S.. advised Viet­namese
troops to capture one
or two of the Viet Cong. We
will never win in a situation
like that although we can buy
time to win hearts, bolster the
economy, and establish a viable
government. But when the Viet
Cong attack in battalion
strength our strong points —
mobility, air superiority, and
artillery — become the Viet
Congs' weak points. Unless we
literally destroy the Viet Cong
in the third phase they will
descend to phase one and two.
If that happens we will have
purchased time to win hearts.
And we may face the third
phase more than once.
There are those who wish to
withdraw including reported­ly
President Johnson. B ut
I say we have crossed the Rubi­con
and we are committed to
victory. Too many times we
have withdrawn. We must win
and the Viet Cong's entry into
Mao's third stage, seemingly
dangerous, may actually put us
into a position where we can
enter a new part of the road to
complete victory.
Letters to the Editor
Unlimited Cuts Advised
For 5 Hour Classes
Editor, The Plainsman:
At this time of the quarter,
one of the most frequently
heard questions between stud­ent
and instructor is the ques­tion
of how many 'cuts' are the
students allowed and there is a
corresponding complex of dif­fering
policies among the facul­ty.
Some say none, some three,
and a few do not care how
many a student takes. I can
easily see the neccessity of a
rigid control of cuts in lab
courses and various other one
and two hour courses, but not
enthusiasm of faculty and stu­dents.
All of the men mentioned in
connection with the presidency
appear to possess the neces­sary
presidential qualities,
otherwise they wouldn't have
been considered for such a pos­ition.
Only the Board of Trustees
can decide the who and when
of the presidential selection. In
the best interests of the Uni­versity
it is hoped that the
Board although hard-pressed
by "second guessers" w i ll
make its decision soon.
in the four and five hour
courses.
It seems to me that since a
student is paying for his edu­cation,
he should be able to
get as much or as little out of
it as he wants by his corre­sponding
class attendance. If
a student feels he can do well
with a minimum of attendance,
let him have unlimited cuts.
It also seems that by the time
that a person reaches the col­lege
level, he should stop being
treated as if he were in high
school. A mature and sensible
student will obtain the most
from his education by volun­tary
regular class attendance,
while these who do not have
those traits will, through their
own lack of initiative and moti­vation,
be left by the wayside,
leaving the way clear for
worthier students from the
burgeoning amount of appli­cants
for college.
Why not remove the pressure
of required class attendance
from the already abundant
pressures in college today and
recognize the maturity of to­day's
students? I feel that this
would be an overall benefit to
both the students and the facul­ty.

Let Red China
Join The UN
Before Too Late
By George Gardner
That Red China will be ad­mitted
to the United Nations is
inevitable.
The only question debated
by international observers has
been the timing.
When? Likely this year.
And China's first atom bomb
test in Octo­ber
was only
one—though
p e r h a ps a
large one —
of the fac­tors
contri-b
u t i n g to
the timing.
We would
p e r s onally
a p p 1 a u d
such action. But it may be too
late for the United States to
"save face."
Now it will seem more like
a defeat for the U.S. that it
should have been, mainly be­cause
we failed to act even
when we knew Mao Tse-tung
was brewing his first "crude"
nuclear bomb.
The Red's have applied for
admission to the UN on num­erous
occasions, but the U.S.
always managed to muster the
necessary bloc votes to deny
her recognition in the select
diplomatic circle.
Often small countries who
would otherwise have given
China the nod failed to do so
for fear of U.S. economic re­taliation.
But the inevitable has oc­curred—
the Chinese Commun­ists
have arrived as a full-fleged
nuclear world power.
And as such they are entitled
to representation in the coun­cil
of nations.
Many would say that China's
seat in the UN is occupied by
the Chiang Kai-shek regime
from Formosa. But to think
that at handful of nationalists—
even with huge quantities of
,ifU.S.r)aid—will ever regain the
Mainland is unreal.
Many American business­men
have begged the State De­partment
for the OK to close
trade deals with Red China.
But each time they have
been refused even as our eco­nomists
lecture that the U.S.
• must engage in more extensive
international trade to retain a
desirable economic g r o w th
rate.
Relatively few enlightened
Americans realize that, in face
of our tremendous population
growth, our gross national pro­duct
must increase at an in­creasing
rate each year.
Red China's foreign trade is
now near the $3 billion mark.
And two-thirds of the 125 na­tions
she trades with are non-
Communist.
While personally n o t a
strong advocate of pure cap- ;
italism, I nevertheless feel that
to deny American business­men
with- foresight and capital
the right to trade with Red
China is unfair.
We sold wheat to the USSR,
didn't we?
China trades with Australia
and West Germany, neither of
whom recognize Peking diplo­matically.
The Chinese would
not require diplomatic recog­nition
before signing trade
pacts with U.S. businessmen
which would be mutually ben­eficial.
To admit China to the select
fold of the United Nations
would be a step in the right
direction. And it should be
done before a fate similar to
that of the League of Nations
befalls the world's most suc­cessful
"debating society."
With the threat of nuclear
^blackmail by China, many
s m a l l left-leaning nations
could be "persuaded" to pull
out of the United Nations.
And like the song goes, "this
could be the start of something
big."
The most logical reason to
resume some sort of Sino-
American relations would be
to prevent the possible spread
of nuclear weapons. (You can
never tell what DeGaulle will
do for the sake of his intense
nationalism!)
So let Red China in the
United Nations—now, before it
is further embarrassing to
America. •

look' Shows Hypocrisy
In Calling Right Extreme
By George McMillan Jr.
We have often been amused by Look Maga-
I zine's constant attack on what it considers
extreme rightists organizations. And in the latest issue, dated
Jan. 26, the editors of Look have rather outdone themselves with
four special reports on the "frightened far right and how it
operates."
We like to consider ourselves
as students of that school of
thought which teaches objective
reasoning—presentation of both
sides of a question and respect
for opinions derived from an
examination of such a presen­tation.
Even in our most fool­hardy
moments we couldn't al­low
that these four reports are
products of this school in which
we fancy ourselves students.
This is rather unusual because
the authors of these reports are
members of the liberal left
which consider themselves
creators of t h i s imaginary
school.
The author of one of the r e ­ports
is Senator Frank Church
(D. Idaho) who is known for
little more than being a protege
of that troublesome Senator
Wayne Morse (D.-Oregon).
Among other t h i n g s , Sen.
Church advocates United States
withdrawal from South Viet
Nam and complete neutraliza­tion
of that area of Asia. Con­sidering^
the few occasions Sen.
Church is heeded in the Senate
it is not surprising to find that
he has time to lend'his talents
to Look's barrage against "the
radical right and its totalitarian
methods."
Senator Church and the other
three contributors to Look's
latest pratings characterize a
Rightist as one who goes about
slashing tires, daubing swa­stikas
on editor's cars, preach­ing
against care for the mental­ly
ill, and plotting to overthrow
the United States government.
It was almost laughable to
note that Arthur Larson, chair­man
of the National Council for
Civic Responsibility—a bipart­isan
committee of famous names
set up last September to coun­ter
both the rising clamor of
Right-Wing propaganda and
Left-Wing excesses—stated in
an interview for one of the r e ­ports
that it is necessary for the
Righ Wing to get more of his
attention.
We fully realize and deplore
the fact that the conservative
movement contains its full share
of fanatics, extremists or what­ever
you want to call them. But
it is not exactly cricket to try
to characterize and degrade a
trend of thought because of a
few nuts associated with it. If
this were an acceptable basis
for discounting movements,
trends, ideas etc., we would
like to know what would sur­vive.
v
It would be pleasing to be­lieve
that the contributors to
Look's special report were sin­cere
in their motives. But for
some strange reason, we sense
in these contributors some of

I had lost the bag until a group

Lack Of Respect
Shown By Booing
Editor, The Plainsman:
Lyndon Johnson was booed
by Auburn students in a local
movie Saturday night when he
appeared on a news reel. These
students displayed not only an
appalling lack of manners but
a distressing lack of respect
for the office of the President
of the United States.
The campaign has long since
been over. Lyndon Johnson is
no longer a partisan candidate.
He is president of all Ameri­cans,
including Auburn stu­dents.
If we happen to be
among the minority that did
not support hiin, good man­ners
and American tradition
demand our respect for the of­fice

Discontent Must Prevail;
Beliefs Will Add Direction
By Bill Renneker
"Because I think, therefore I am;* Be­cause
I believe, therefore I will be."
These are the words of the Honorable Willard Wirtz, Secre­tary
of Labor, regarding the development of the American
people and the growth of our United States. These words, simple
as Jhey are, may bp t h e , J?§st piece of advice we can grasp as
we continue through the> year 1965. In them we can see the
reflection of our great heritage, and in them we can hope for
the future.
As we examine these words,
we begin to understand their
meaning to our lives. If we
invert their arrangement to ob­tain
the reciprocal of each in­dependent
clause, we would
witness an extremely false
statement; for, it does not
necessarily hold true that be­cause
we are therefore we
think; and because we will be,
therefore we believe.
I would venture to say that
to some Americans many a day
has passed before one thought,
one really exciting thought, was
conveived; and I am quite sure
that many a day has passed be­fore
they have organized these
thoughts into what they be­lieve.
Some perhaps have never
thought. They have simply
taken the word of their parents,
relatives, and ..close friends or
they have accepted the printed
word, and it is a part of them.
These people have never ques­tioned
what is embedded in
their daily lives and these peo­ple
are content. They will never
be any better than they are t o ­day.
But contentment doesn't be­long
on a university campus; it
isn't found in a progressive in­dividual,
and it should not be
found in a progressive institu­tion.
We as college students
have an obligation to society
not to be content with these
everyday happenings. Our
thoughts require organization
pr they become wasted energy;
for, we believe only when we
have organized our thoughts. It
is our beliefs which will add
direction to us as individuals.
While our thoughts enable us
to question our environment,
our beliefs will add correction
to these surroundings.
We are indeed an extremely
fortunate group of people. We
have in our hands a wonderful
opportunity; but where do we
'stand? iAre we among the
content, or are we treading a
more progressive path? Will we
be satisfied with the present,
or will we strive to ask ques­tions?
Will we remain status
quo, or will we move forward
in the year 1965 saying, "Be­cause
I Think, therefore I am;
because I believe,* therefore I
will be."?

College started issueing meal
tickets with pictures on them
because swapping meal tickets
between students upset accura­cy
in meal planning. The cost,
$1,400, will be off-set by sav­ings
in meal servings.
Fewer losses of cards is fore­seen
because replacement will
cost $5.00.
If the pictures on the meal
tickets compare with the pic­tures

COIN SHORTAGE
"Green sale" is bankers'

cents for a one dollar bill. You

a severe coin shortage is grip->-
ping most parts of the nation,
and banks are being forced to
pay more for coins than they
are actually worth.
Two reasons cited are in­creased
vending machine sell­ing
and coin collecting. The
Treasury plans to double coin
production in 1965 and keep the
1964 mint date to discourage
persons who are hording coins.
The Treasury hopes t he
shortage will be ended by late

THE DOLLAR SIGN . . .
Once again, the neon-like dollar sign has returned to
plague athletics in colleges and universities across the nation.
This time the difficulty is the result of a war, a battle royale
between two arch-rival and immensely successful professional
football leagues to obtain the hallowed signature and services
of a limited number of highly talented collegiate grid /performers.
Shady recruiting practices employed by the pros to corral
their picks as brought to light in the recent early-signing dis­closures
has forced college athletic officials, caught in the bind
of a spiralling players' market, to re-examine their authority
in preventing such unethical practices. /
But just what exactly can the collegiate victims legislate
that would guarantee compliance? Suppose you were the
avidly sought after son of a gas station atteudent sitting in a
plush hotel room among professional scouts talking in monetary
figures which would reshape your life and insure a bright
future for your family at the mere volunteering of your John I
Henry. What would you do? And what difference does the |
college make? After all, wasn't it the college recruiter that ap­proached
you with lavish offers while in high school? All he
said you'd get for signing with College was the standard tuition,
room, ftoard, books, AND 300 dollars a week for laundry.
Because Auburn possessed two super stars in Tucker Frede-rickson
and Jimmy Sidle, it is natural that the competition
between the older and more established National Football
Leaguer, and the fast-rising American Football League circuit
reach the campus.
Unconfirmed Rumor . . .
For many weeks an unconfirmed rumor was circulated that
Sidle had been offered a figure in the neighborhood of 20,000
dollars to sign prematurely with a certain pro team. Jimmy
a true All-American, flatly declined' the offer, according to
the report.
Coach "Shug" Jordan, a respected veteran of the profession
always eager to solve ahy problems plaguing the sport, hit
the nail squarely on the head. He said, "The real answer
to this problem lies in the basic integrity of the people involved,
not so much in adopting restrictive measures, for there are
few solutions which could not be circumvented by unscrupulous
maneuvering."
For examples Jordan mentioned two proposed plans and
their loopholes. In the first proposal any contract signed by
a collegian would not be valid in a court of law until after the
conclusion of the player's eligibility. In other words, pre­maturely
signed contracts would be void. However, what's to
prevent a gridder from signing an UNDATED paper which
could be filled-in at ahy time with an allowable date? This* is
what would have occurred in the Jim Wilson case at Georgia,
and it is quite possible that the infraction might have gone un­noticed
had the standout tackle not decided to jump from the
Boston Patriots of the AFL to the San Francisco '49ers of
the NFL.
Player's Agent . . .
Under the second plan, either the player's coach, athletic
du-eojajv °r sajag, other§schij§" officiaL^ggould be the officiaL
agent for the draftee aiifl ncSjfcontract would be legal without
first having obtained a release from the agent of the player.
Parents might object but if every school adopted the measure
it "Would, of necessity, be effective. However, there is one
major catch. "What is there to prevent the pro team from
encouraging vthe agent to release the player with ah enticing
inducement?", mentioned Coach Jordan.
Coach Jordan relates that there was no problem when there
was/only one league, but the battle for pigskin supremacy and
the- swelling coffers from television receipts, has reshaped the
gaftie.
Whatever is done in the future concerning this situation, it
is apparent that only an agreement to carry on their practice
as gentlemen will guarentee fair actions. The sootier the better
for all concerned.
The Senior Bowl. . . A Second Guess . . .
;It seems to us that the directors of the Senior Bowl Classic
in Mobile did themselves some degree of harm by failing to
give Tucker Frederickson a greater opportunity to operate on
offense. A sellout crowd came to see "the best, all-around foot­ball
player in 30 years" exhibit all of his talent and many
left not only disappointed with a deadlock, but also miffed
at watching the fullback ride the bench on offense, particularly
in the final quarter.
Larry Cart Returns To Erase Black Mark From Record
ii
m
Larry Cart wanted a chance to erase a black
mark from his record at Auburn. He got it. The re­sult
may be the comeback story of the year in South­eastern
Conference basketball.
Cart's return to the lineup after a year's absence
has helped transform Auburn from a loser to a contender
in the SEC race. His precise passes and deadly jump
shots are winning weapons in Coach Bill Lynn's offensive
arsenal.
"Larry has been a great help to us thus far this season,"
remarked Lynn on Cart's contribution to the Tigers sur­prising
9-2 season record.
As a junior Cart was voted most valuable player of
the 1963 Sugar Bowl Tournament which Auburn won in an
upset and helped ramrod the Tiger team to an 18-4 over­all
record and a tie for second place in the SEC.
Then at the beginning of last season he was dismissed
from the squad for disciplinary reasons.
More than 20 colleges and universities offered Cart
grants-in-aid for his senior season, but he turned down
- their offers and gave the following reason:
"If I don't go back, I'll always be remembered for having
been dismissed from the Auburn team. No matter what
I do somewhere else, I'll never live it down. I want a
chance to go back and prove myself and, I hope, have a
good year."
Athletic Director Jeff Beard and Coach Lynn, at Cart's
request, gave him that chance, agreeing to allow him to
rejoin the team.
How has Cart responded?
Lynn calls him "one of the most outstanding men on
campus since his return."
'*Cart played the best game of his career," acknowledged
Coach Lynn on the veteran guard's play against Florida last
Saturday evening in a 74-63 Tiger victory. "He took
charge of the team and played the role of a leader through­out
the contest." CAGEY CART IN ACTION
Senior center Joe Newton had this to say about Cart:
"We were glad to get him back. He's a real good ball
player and a team leader. Everyone gets along with Larry
and the squad is one big, happy family . . . like a good
team should be. He is one of the main reasons for our
success to date."
Freddie Guy, senior and captain of the Auburn quintet
calls Cart "the best little man in the SEC on the fast
)reak. He lends leadership and is a lot of fun to be with.:
There was no ill-feeling on his coming back as it was a
unanimous decision."
Without Cart, Auburn suffered its first losing season
in 14 years last year. With) him, the Tigers are 9-2 overall
and 4-0 in the SEC. Cart has averaged 10.3 points per
game in addition to numerous assists.
The 5-11, 165-pound playmaker scored 25 points in
Auburn's pre-Christmas victory over the Phillips Oilers.
"Cart also accounted for at least 25 more points with
his great passing," Lynn said. "I can't remember when
we had a player to completely dominate a game as did Cart
in the second half against the Oilers."
Phillips Coach Gary Lambert agreed. He said the
Oilers would be outstanding if they had a playmaker of
Cart's ability, adding that he hoped to sign him after he
finished school.
The Oiler game does not count in team statistics, so
a superior performance by Cart won't get into the record
books. ... '
But others will.
Cart led Tiger scorers with 15 markers against the Uni­versity
of Mississippi at Oxford in a game the Tigers won
by a 77-53 margin.
Cart directed Young Harris, Ga., to the national junior
college finals in 1962, setting an all-time record for assists in
the tournament. He averaged 13 points for Auburn his
first year, high marks being two 20-plus performances in
the Sugar Bowl Tournament in which Auburn beat Houston
for the championship.
'Greater Bench Strength
Keys Improvement': Lynn
P r e p a r i n g to play crucial road games w i t h Alabama
and Kentucky on Saturday and Monday evenings re­spectively,
the current edition of the Auburn Tiger
cagers is making Coach Bill Lynn sound like a prophet.
"We will surprise a lot of people," Coach Lynn re­marked
before the present
Billy Edge's Season . . .
,/The accomplishments of one Billy Edge, Tiger defensive
starter for three years, must serve as a reminder of the
many goals which can be reached through application. Edge
topped off fall quarter with a perfect 3.0 grade point average,
an appearance in the Blue-Gray All Star Classic in Montgomery,
and acceptance to the University of Alabama Medical School.
The majority of people fail to reach any of the levels which
Edge has managed to attain in a single period. Very few do
it all at once.
Not to be outdone, fullback John Cochran also registered
another of his perfect point averages. Cochran's accomplish­ments
in the field of Engineering are fast becoming legendary
on the Auburn campus. . , .

Auburn on its fine
team and stated that "the Ti­gers
could go all the way."
In a slow-down, deliberate
type contest in marked con­trast
to the Tigers previous
home encounters, Auburn led
nearly all the way and won
handily to notch their ninth
victory of the season and
fourth conference game with­out
a loss. The Plainsmen have
fallen victim to two non-con­ference
opponents in their 11
outings.
Coach Crawford of the Reb­els
stated that it was not his
team's intention to slow down
the game but rather to play
for the "best percentage shot."
Ole Miss hit for a 45.2 percent­age
from the field while Au­burn
managed to convert 49
per cent of its attempts.
Lee DeFore, led all scorers
with 16 points, followed by
Jim Bobe of Mississippi with
14 markers. Others in double
figures for the Tigers were
Freddie Guy and Larry Cart
with 11 points each.
J im Robbins hit 13 for the
Rebs.
In a more exciting contest
witnessed by an excitable
overflow .crowd, the Tigers
whipped the Florida Gators by
a 74-63 margin last Saturday
evening in the Sports Arena.
It Was a crucial game for
both quintets as Florida was
a post-season choice for a pos­sible
championship, and Au­burn
entered the game as, the
budding dark horse of the 1965
race. I
defensive work combined with
the take-charge capability of
Larry Cart on offense. Dead-eye
Lee DeFore canned 24
points on 11 field goals and
two charity tosses. Many of
DeFore's points came with the
aid of sharp passes from a
number of teammates.
Bench strength late in the
contest enabled the Plainsmen
to maintain their winning mar­gin
as Joe Newton and Freddie
Guy fouled out leaving the Ti­gers
with a depleted heighth
situation.
The score w a s tied seven
times in the first'half before
Larry Cart sank a jumper to
put the Tigers ahead to stay.
Auburn led 38-34 at halftime.
Auburn has also defeated
Georgia Tech (60-52), Florida
State (92-68), Phillips Oners
(78-66), Rice (94-71), Georgia

filled in for Auburn starters.
Plainsman starters, behind
the wizard-like playmaking of
Larry Cart and the scoring-rebounding
- ball h a n d l i ng
combination of Freddie Guy,
Lee DeFore, and Tommy Fib-be,
have responded by empha­sizing
team play and ease of
interchangeability. As a result,
Auubrn has benefitted from
the experience and strong
points of the entire squad in
rushing to nine wins, six of
which have come on the al­ways
difficult road.
This early-season character­istic
may be a clue to Auburn's
chances in the SEC for Coach
Lynn feels that "the team that
wins most on the road will
win the title."
Defense has been another of
Auburn's strong fortes as the
Tigers lead the SEC in lowest
percentage of field goals al­lowed
opponents. Coach Lynn,
and his assistant coach Rudy
Davalos, consider this phase of
the Tigers overall play as rap­idly
improving.
Coach Hayden Riley's Crim­son
Tide quintet is scheduled
to meet the-Plainsmen at ap­proximately
8 p.m. in Mont­gomery's
Foster Auditorium
on Saturday evening following
a freshman game between the
Baby Tide and the yearling
Tigers.
It will be the first encounter
of the year between the two
arch-rival squads, and for both
fives the game rates as a "must
win" affair to strengthen their
respective conference rank­ings.
Alabama owns a 10-3
record for the season.
Legendary Kentucky, sport­ing
a mediocre (for Kentucky)
7-5 record for the campaign,
becomes Auburn's opponent on
Monday evening in Lexington.
Adolph (The Baron) Rupp's
defending SEC champion
Wildcats have exhibited out­standing
talent, however a
lack of height has prevented
the 'Cats from posting a better
won-loss ledger.
Bob Andrews, senior Ala­bama
center and currently in
tenth place in SEC scoring,
leads the Tide outfit. Andrews
is averaging nearly 16 points
per .game and he notched 35
markers in Alabama's triumph
over Mississippi. The Lake
Charles, La., star is tied for the
seventh slot in SEC rebound­ing
with an average of 10 r e ­bounds
per game. Andrews is
receiving aid from teammates
Gene Shumacher, Bambi How-land,
co-captain Charlie Perry,
and Reese Carr.
Riley's team is 10-3 for the
season and 3-1 in Conference
play.
Auburn captain Freddie Guy
claims that "Alabama is as
good as anyone in the league
on any given night, and don't
forget they defeated both Ken­tucky
and Tennessee during
1964."
Kentucky, playing a sche­dule
spiced with intersectional
rivalries and stiff competition,
relies on the abilities of sopho­more
sensation Louie Dampier .
and junior Tommy Kron at
the guard positions. The duo is
currently averaging 17 points
per game each.

Triangular Match Wins

Auburn University wrestlers
defeated Maryville 22-15 and
LeTourneau 19-17 in a three
way meet at the Sports Arena
Friday and Saturday. LeTour­neau
defeated Maryville 20-11
in the other match.
"We had a weight problem,"
said Coach Swede Umbach,
"and we had to forfeit, three
classes. We also had other boys
wrestling out of their normal
weight classes. Without the
forfeits, only two points were
scored on us in the meet."
Three Plainsmen managed to
pin their opponents in the two
day meet. Carmen Chimento
accomplished the feat in the
177 pound class, as did heavy­weight
John McAfee and a 123
pounder, Sal Zarcone.
Six Tigers —I Zarcone, Chi­mento,
McAfee, Bob Atchison,
Henry Starnes, and Rick Um­bach—
were undefeated in the
meet. Chimento had one draw.
"I was very impressed with
Le Tourneau's Garland Ma-han
in the 167 pound class, and
Jim Griffith in the 137 pound
class," said Umbach. "Mary-ville's
John Henderson, 123
pounder, was also a fine per­former."
Auburn's next outing will be
against Georgia Tech at the
Sports Arena Saturday. The
Rambling Wrecks captured
three championships in the

the Tigers had two

A former A u b u r n halfback's outstanding performance
in a professional playoff game and the t r a d i n g of a one­time
Tiger All-America end a t t r a c t e d wide local interest
t h i s week.
Jimmy Burson, left-halfback who played his last
season for Auburn in 1962, was . . ,
complete as he kept a close
guard on potential receivers,
mainly Jeter and Max McGee.
Serving in a dual role, Bur­son
also was in double safety
en t h e ' punt-receiving team,
pairing off with Billy Gam-brell,
who was voted the
game's most valuable player.
Burson fumbled the only punt
he fielded and Green Bay went
on to score, but his key inter­ception
later made up for the
error. He sparked as' a block­er
in the twin-safety slot, per­mitting
the diminutive Gam-brell
to cut loose on several
fine returns.
Burson has returned to Au­burn
and enrolled at Auburn
University this quarter to com­plete
work on his bachelor's
degree in education.
Another former Tiger on the
St. Louis roster, fullback Joe
Childress, missed the game be­cause
of an injury which kept
him out of action in the Card­inals'
last three regular-season
games.
BURSON AS A COLLEGIAN
Jimmy Burson, now a star performer for the Saint Louis
Cardinals of the National Football League is shown as the
breakaway threat he posed while a member of the Tiger
varsity during the 1960, '6^, and '62 campaigns.
instrumental in the St. Louis
Cardinals' 24-17 u p s e t of
Green Bay in the National
Football League Playoff Bowl
at Miami Sunday afternoon.
The game matched the runner-up
teams in the NFL's eastern
and western conferences.
Burson saved the day for the
Cardinals when he intercepted
a Green Bay pass by Paul Hor-nung
at the Cards' one-yard
line with less than three min­utes
remaining. Burson made
a dazzling return to his own 24,
and St. Louis controlled the
ball for the remaining time to
win the game. The Packers had
advanced to the Cardinal 25
following a pass interception,
and a touchdown and extra
point would have tied t he
score and probably sent the
game into a sudden-death
overtime period.
Burson turned in a fine job
defending against Green Bay
passers all afternoon; only one
pass was completed in his zone,
a short one to Bob Jeter, who
was tackled immediately by
Burson. The former Tiger, a
unanimous pick for. the all-
SEC sophomore team in 1960,
broke up a couple of passes,
and six or eight more fell in-ber
of men who place in each
event. . .
In the conference meet of
1964, Coach Rosen's broad
jumpers won four out of the
first five positions. In the hop,
skip and jump event of last
year, the Plainsmen racked up
a first, second, fifth and sixth
place.
The team has been practic­ing
since January 4th. They
spent two hours a day running
and getting in condition for
the up-coming meet.

The former All-America end
at Auburn who figured in a
National Football League trade
was Jim (Red) Phillips of
Alexander City, who last play­ed
for Auburn on the national
championship team of 1957.
Phillips and a teammate were
traded by t h e Los Angeles
Rams to the Minnesota Vik­ings
in exchange for All-
America Jack Snow of Notre
Dame, recently signed by the
Vikings.
In his seven years with the
Rams, Phillips was an .all-pro
selection three times and was
the NFL's leading pass receiv­er
one year. Phillips missed
much of the 1964 season after
a hand injury became infected
and required an operation.
Phillips joins two other ex-
Tigers on the Minnesota team:
regular defensive back George
Rose and defensive end Ho­ward
Simpson of the "taxi"
squad. Both finished their Au­burn
football careers in 1963.

(71-70), and Mississippi (77-
53).
Auburn's front line of 6'6"
Lee DeFore, 6'8" Joe Newton,
and 6'7" Freddie Guy, has been
outstanding, Coach Bill Lynn
said.
Through the first nine games
they had collected a total of
272 rebounds with Guy gath­ering
118, Newton 99, and De-
Fore 45.
This trio is also scoring at a
45 point per game average.
DeFore leads the pack with 19
points per game. Newton has
a 14 point average with Guy
having 12 per contest.
Sophomores; Ronnie Quick
(6'5"), Randy-^Thomas (6'4"),
and Jimmy Montgomery (6'-
3") have ably assisted on the
front line. At one time or an­other
each has filled the start­er's
role.
Larry Cart leads playmakers
Bobby Buisson, Tommy Fibbe,
Tee Faircloth, Herbert Greene,
and Tim Pearson.
Cart is averaging 10 points
a game and also leads the
guards in scoring. Others aver­age:
Buisson and Montgomery,
seven each; and Fibbe six.
Team scoring has been; led
almost exclusively by DeFore.
While shooting at a 19 point a
game clip, he has the indivi­dual
single game high of 28
points versus Florida State and
Furman. He also has the indi­vidual
high for number of field
goals with 11 against these
same two teams, Florida State
and Furman.
Newton is among the na­tion's
best percentage shooters,
with 43 put of 72 attempts for
a .597 percentage. Buisson and
DeBore are also hitting with
regularity with .512 and .504
percentages respectively.
During the holidays Auburn
appeared in both the Blue
Bonnet Classic in Houston,
Texas and t h e Poinsettia
Tournament in Greenville, S.Ci
It was in these two events that
the Tigers suffered their two
losses. !
Coach Lynn's crew first felt
the sting of defeat in the Blue
Bonnet Classic with a narrow
50-48 loss to Houston. How-*
ever, the Tigers came back to
win the consolation game with
a 94-71 victory over Rice.
In the opening game of the
Poinsettia Tournament (De­cember
28), Auburn met the
team that Coach Lynn describ­ed
as "the best that we have
played this year," in Clemson.
Despite brilliant play by New­ton,
who made the All-Tour r
ney team, the Plainsmen lost I
77-65.
In the consolation game, the
Tigers, led by DeFore, set rec­ords
by defeating Furman 107-
86. DeFore had 28 points, while
Freddie Guy pulled, down an
incredible 22 rebounds.
Auburn and Vanderbilt are
currently leading the South­eastern
Conference with iden­tical
records of four wins and
no losses in league play.
Victories over Mississippi
State (71-70), and Ole Miss
(77-53) marked the first time
in a number of years that the
Tigers have beaten both the
Bulldogs and Rebels, consecu­tively,
away from home.
Keeping a clean slate for the
season on the local scene the
Plainsmen knocked off Geor­gia
Southern 80-64, and FSU
92-68. DeFore led all scorers
in both contests with capable
assistance given by Guy.
For the first nine games of
the season Auburn held op­ponents
to an average of 65.6
points per game while aver­aging
77 points a contest.
The 107 points Auburn scor­ed
against Furman is the
greatest number of points tal­lied
by an Auburn five since
1959.

No Auburn Super Stars In '65
But Tiger Eleven Could Move
Determination Ami Extra Effort
Key To Successful Campaign
By RON MUSSIG
"The 1965 Plainsman football squad will not be bless­ed
with a. super-star type like Jimmy Sidle or Tucker
Frederickson—but the Tiger eleven "could surprise a
few people," was a remark of offensive coach Buck
Bradberry.
BOGUE MILLER
DON HELLER
Determination and a little
extra effort from each mem­ber
should make the differ­ence
according to coach Brad-berry,
who, along with defen­sive
coach Hal Herring, is al­ready
looking to the 1965 sea­son.
RULES CHANGE
Both coaches stated that
many factors, including NCAA
rule changes and practice
showings of players, would
make, a lot of difference in
naming replacements for 13
graduation-bound p l a y e r s.
Coaches all over the nation are
awaiting the decisions of the
1965 meeting of the NCAA
Rules Committee. Special at­tention
is expected to be given
to the substitution rule which
at this time is expected to be
liberalized, making platoonihg
a necessity.
BACKFIELDS
The most emphasis will be
given to the offensive and de­fensive
backfields, both of
which are going to be depleted
by graduation. Speedster-Ger­ald
Gross, who will be return­ing
to the squad in time for
spring training after being
suspended last season for dis­ciplinary
reasons, will be look­ed
to for much aid in the of­fensive
backfield by coach
Bradberry. Coach Herring will
be looking to sophomores to fill
his defensive secondary which
has graduated in its entirety.
- EXPERIENCE FIRST
Coach Bradberry said that he
would be looking | to exper­ience
first to fill' the eight
backfield positions created by
the need to platoon.

John Cochran and Harrison

at fullback and either
could win the position. Anoth­er
candidate to be reckoned
with is Jim Buschellon, who
was red-shirted for a year.

Franklin Fuller, who has

neither of whom saw much
action last season. Freshmen
who could break into the back-field
lineup are Loran and

Hank Hall, Bobby Payne, Mar­vin
Tucker, and Lee Kidd.
LINE SETTLED
In the line, only six of 21
experienced men were lost.
Ronnie Baynes and Scotty
Long return at left end, while
Bogue Miller and Danny Ful-\
ford are experienced right
ends.
All three left tackles and
guards listed on the three deep
charts last year are returnees.
Jack Thornton; Bill" Braswell
and Bruce Yates will h o ld
down offensive and defensive
tackle slots, while Mike Davis,
Larry Haynie and Larry Jef-fers
will handle the same
chores at guard. .
Chuck Hurston, starting
right tackle, was the only
tackle lost this year. Bobby
Walton and John McAfee al­ternated
with him in '64 and
will return in '65. Don Heller
and Ernie Warren, both right
guards, will be gone, leaving
only Andy Gross at'the posi­tion.
With- three-otfepr «sper-;
ienced guards, this should pre­sent
no special problem. Wayne
Burns, who had knee surgery
while Charley Glenn and For­rest
Blue, both red-shirted
tackles may be called on for
help.
NEW SYSTEM
Defensively, Coach Herring
said that the Tigers could pos­sibly
devise a completely new
defensive system, depending
upon several factors. Among
these factors are the rules,
personnel available and their
showings during training.
Bobby Hunt Named
To All-AFL Team
Former Auburn quarterback
Bobby Hunt was named to the
second defensive unit of the
American Football League all-star
team picked by the Asso­ciated
Press last week.
As safety man for the Kan­sas
City Chiefs, Hunt inter­cepted
four passes in one game
this season to tie a professional
league record. He was selected
to the all-AFL team as a
rookie in 1962.
The Chiefs finished second

With Frederickson, B i l ly

Coach Herring must produce a
new secondary. Expected to
fill the gap; which will face a
stern test in the season opener
against Baylor and Southwest-e
r n Conference sophomore'
back of the year, quarterback
Terry Southall, pitcher of note;
are sophomores Bucky Ayers
and Jimmy Carter with senior
Don Lewis at safety. Bobby
Payne and Hank Hall, both
sophomores, are slated for a
shot at the defensive halfback
post.
Bill Cody, a linebacker that
has showed that he likes to
pop, will return for his senior
year and is expected to again
lead the linebacking ranks.
The defensive line will be
made up of the same men list­ed
in the offensive summary.
Whether a man will play of­fense
or defense — provided
that that is what the rules call
for—will depend upon each
individual's spring showing.

Intramural Scene
Cage Sports Attracts
Over 1000 Participants
By RON MUSSIG
Intramural action for this
quarter began last Monday.
Three sports; basketball, bowl­ing,
and table tennis, are on
tap for the winter intramural
season.
1000 PLAYERS
Basketball will draw the
most participants this quarter,
with 73 teams and over 1000
players in fraternity, dormi­tory,
and independent divi­sions.
Games will be played in
the Student Activities Build­ing
with 16 games and action
from 4:00 to 11:00 Monday
through Thursday.
Last year's fraternity cham­pions,
PKT, saw action in the
season opener against PKP.
PKT, with five men returning
off last year's championship
squad is expected to be among
the teams to watch again this
year. Tom Mitchell and Phil
Vaughn return to bolster Phi
Tau's scoring punch, while top
play maker Billy Ray Hatley
also returns. ,
"ALL THE WAY"
SAE, second place team last
year and PKA, fourth place
team also opened Tuesday.
SAE, annual contender for
cage honors, is without the ser­vices
of Ben Easterling, who
graduated. However, the team
boasts three former Auburn
freshmen basketball players
and a spokesman for the squad
stated that "we have a good
team and expect to go all the
way," when asked of his quin­tet's
title chances.
PKA returned four of its
first five men. Jim Thomas,
David Outland, Wayne Elliott,
and Mike Glascoe all returnees
should lead the PKA five with
the fifth starter to come from
a "good crop of pledges" or
last year's reserves.
KA OPENS THURSDAY
KA, the number three team
last year doesn't open until
Thursday. KA. lost three of
their big men, but expect to
field another good squad with
twins George.jind Frank, SaltT
er, Jimmy Wieble, and Tommy
Wheeler leading the outfit.

Freshman Cagers Roll
To Sixth Court Victory
By BILL CURRENT-GARCIA
Auburn's 1964-65 freshman
quintet, playing the hardest
schedule of any frosh team in
Tiger cage history, has raced
to a 6-1 record including a
67-61^ win over Snead Junior
College last Saturday night.
Other victories have come at
the expense of the Georgia
Tech frosh by a 60-50 score,
Florida State frosh (76-57),
Abraham Baldwin (73-61),
Columbus (92-61), and Ala­bama
Christian (79-69). The
lone loss was administered by
Walker College at Jasper on
January 4 by the score of 83-
70.
Leading the victorious Tig­ers
over Snead were forward
Stan Worley with 19 points
followed by center Randall
Walker with 16 and Gary
Lambert with 12. Alex Howell
had eight, Jim Van Pelt six,
and Tom Perry five.
Overall, the Tigers present
a balanced attack with Walker
showing a 17.4 average, How­ell
a 15.7 norm, Worley a 15.1
output, Perry a 10.9 average,
and Bob Miller scored an even
10 points per game until he
suffered a broken bone in his
foot in the Tiger's fourth game.
Individual high marks for
the young season showed Ho­well
scoring 29 points against
Alabama Christian. Perry and
Walker were Auburn's scoring
leaders with 13 in the Tech
game while Howell netted 19
points against Florida State
and Walker notched that total
for high point honors against.
Abraham Baldwin. Gary Lam­bert
was the Tiger's top point-maker
in the loss to Walker
with 21 points.
Lambert has played, accord­ing
to Coach Larry Chapman,
"both better and more since
Christmas." Coach Chapman
also notes that Miller's injury
"definitely hurt" the Tiger
frosh, but adds that Miller
"may be ready to play by the
time of the Vanderbilt game."
The frosh had already been
struck just before the season
started by an untimely injury
in practice to forward Charlie
Osborne. Coach Chapman feels
that Osborne is a "good re-bounder,
but is still bothered
by his broken hand."
Chapman feels that the team
has a lot of work to do, as
there are crucial games re­maining
with Tech, Walker,
Vanderbilt, Alabama, Georgia,
and Columbus. "In fact, all of
them are tough," is the man­ner
in which the freshman
coach puts it.

Let's discuss tomorrow
In science and technology, the accomplishments
of today are but direction for tomorrow. Why? >
Simply because resting on the accomplishments
of today is a luxury we cannot afford.
I n Communications Engineering, where, \
others are content to modify, our mandate
is to CREATE.
I n Electronic Data Processing Systems, *N
where^ others are content to innovate, our
mandate is to CREATE. ._
This, then, is the philosophy"..'. the crux of
intellectual thought... at the National Security
Agency—where the concepts of tomorrow are the
problems of today.
So let's discuss the future...
yours and ours
If you are a gifted and interested Engineer or
Mathematician, we have much in common—including
A COMPULSION TO SUCCEED.
Our future is contingent upon a constant input of

in the technical capabilities of our professional staff.
To assure this, scientific employees are encouraged
to pursue graduate studies at local universities
under Agency sponsorship. Your future with NSA
will entail education . . . early responsibility.. ^J
and unusually challenging assignments.
Why? Because . . .
• We MUST create completely new kinds of \
communications equipments and systems embodying
concepts and techniques THAT HAVE NO

Cross Country: An Individual Sport
With Very Small Cheering Section
By HOLLIS EASLEY
The crack of a pistol rings through the air, and eight
distance runners speed by as they begin their long
journey. These men are participating in the little publi­cized,
unglamorous sport dubbed cross-country.
Cross-country requires the most rigorous training
program of any athletic sport,
yet it reaps less glory than
its competitors. It is an indi­vidual
sport in that there are
never more than eight or 10
spectators to cheer the cross­country
team to victory. This
lack of team support requires
the individual runner to men­tally
form his own rooting sec­tion
as he skims the lonely
three to five mile run.
Gross-country is thus dedi­cation,
as well as mental disci­pline,
and the amount of each
determines how good a runner
will be.
A good team has at least five
good men, an outstanding
team, seven. In a race, as many
as eight men from a single
team may run the course, all
starting at the same time, and
all covering the same distance.
The sum of the clocked times
of the first five men on a team
to cross the finish line con­stitutes
the team's score.
LOW SCORER
Unlike most sports, where a
high score indicates the victor,
the low scoring team in a
cross-country meet obviously
wins.
The main objective of a
cross-country runner is to im­prove
his time, which comes
only through daily workouts.
The Auburn cross - country
team, headed by Coach Mel
Rosen, ran an average of six
to eight miles daily. The work­outs
consisted of speed runs,
which were made on the Cliff
Hare Stadium track, and en-1 due to familiarity of the
durance workouts, which were
paced in Auburn cotton fields.
The workout was changed
daily so that it wouldn't grow
monotonous.
In addition to the afternoon
training period, some runners
who could find time between
classes indulged in morning
workouts. But academic work
came first to the cross-country
team.
SCHOOL FIRST
"I've always tried to keep
workout time at a maximum
of an hour or two so that the
boys can get in school work,"
explained Coach Rosen.
The Auburn 1964 Cross­country
team was larger than
the squad of '63, consisting of
14 runners. The team was al­most
entirely composed of
former Auburn cake-race win­ners
and runners-up, with only
one cross-country scholarship
runner in training.
Members of the team who
previously did not letter in
track because of a speed de­ficiency
have lettered several
years in cross-country as a re­sult
of then—personal drive
and their endurance.
HOME ADVANTAGE
Cross country is the one
sport in, which home standing
is of most advantage. A team
that has run the course a num­ber
of times, and knows every
foot of the hills and flats in
the run can always subtract a
few points off the final score
course!. Auburn meets are us­ually
raced on the whvJuig and
rocky roads of the forestry
Reserve,.
BUILDS ENDURANCE
SEC competition is keer» in
the half-mile and" mile dis­tance
running events held
every spring as track season
gets underway. Cross-country
builds the main thing that such
a distance runner must h a v e -
endurance. Thus, the value of
cross country lies in preparing
runners for distance running.
Cross-country, however, has
its own SEC meets with teams
of Southern universities. There
is a Conference meet held at
Ida Cason Callaway Gardens
at Pine Mountain, Ga., each
year with medals and a trophy
presented to winning runners
and team. A National Colleg­iate
cross country meet was
also held in East Lansing,
Mich, during 1964.

AUBURN GRID MEN APPEAR
IN POSTSEASON CONTESTS
By LARRY LEE
Appropriately expressing the sentiments of six Ti­ger
gridders who participated in post-season all-star
games concerning their only regrets, Auburn fullback
Tucker Frederickson commented, "We didn't win."
In Miami, the South fell 37-30, while at Montgomery
the Greys fell by a 10-6 score,
North College St.

Auburn 887-3211
and in Mobile the Rebels had
to settle for a 7-7 deadlock.
The six, Mike Alford, Billy
Edge, Chuck Hurston, Mickey
Sutton, Jimmy Sidle and Fred­erickson,
took part in three
holiday all-star football- af­fairs.
Alford and Edge played in
Montgomery's B l u e - G r ey
game, Hurston, Sidle and
Frederickson in the North-
South game in Miami and Sut­ton,
Sidle and Frederickson in
the Mobile Senior Bowl Clas­sic.
,
KEY YARDAGE
Frederickson, everybody's
| Ail-American, had a good
day—as usual—in both the
North-South and Senior Bowl
games. He scored two touch­downs
and picked up key yarcU
age for his South t e a m in
Miami..
In Mobile he was called on
only twice to carry the ball,
spending the rest of the game
on defense. On these two car­ries,
he' ran for 13 yards.
BIGGEST THRILL
When asked what his biggest
thrill of t h e holiday games
Tucker .said;, "Having the op­portunity
to play with some of
the country's outstanding play­ers
at both games."
. Though, the coaching was
different than that at Auburn,
Tucker said it was not hard to
adjust to and that he felt
"OK" about his performance
in the games considering the
State fullback, who received
36 points. . . .
Georgia tackle Jim Wilson
and. Alabama guard Wayne
Freeman placed third and
fourth in the "voting.
The trophy is presented an­nually
by William and Hugh
Jacobs of Clinton, S.C., in
memory of their father, Wil­liam
P. Jacobs, former presi­dent
of Presbyterian College.
Similar awards are made to
the outstanding blocker in the
Southeastern Conference, At­lantic
Coast Conference and
state of South Carolina.
time spent in practice.
FINE SHOWING
Auburn's other All-Ameri-can,
Jimmy Sidle, also made a
fine showing in his two all-star
appearances.
In Miami, he saw duty as a
flanker back, punter and kick-off
return man. He caught two
passes and returned two kick-offs.
In the Port City Classic,
Jimmy started the g.i'Pfi.wHh
a "bang." Following the open­ing
kickoff he carried the ball
three consecutive times, net­ting
38 big yards. He carried
once more before leaving the
game with an injured should­er.
Auburn's other contribution
to the Miami affair,. Chuck
Hurston, saw duty as an offen­sive
lineman. He got credit for
the recovery of a teammate's
fumble.
HOMETOWN CROWD
Playing before a hometown
audience, Sutton handled a
defensive back spot for the
South in the- Senior Bowl.
Billy Edge, Auburn's de­pendable
little defensive back
for three years, lent his ser­vices
to the Sputh squad in the
Montgomery battle as a de­fensive
corner back. Unfort-fortunately,
he and Mike Al­ford
suffered the fate pit- their
teammates in' the other all-star
contests — they were on
the losing end 10-6.
A MUD BATH
Billy rated the Blue-Grey
competition as "very good."
"They were all good athletes,"
he said. As to what he enjoy­ed
most about being in the
game, Billy answered, "Just
being with the other boys and
having a good time."
And what about the game
did he remember most? "The
mud and rain," he said. "It
rained most of the week we
were practicing and then the
first half of the game. Kinda
like a mud bath," Billy added.
Mike Alford, the other play­er
in the Blue-Grey, spent his
afternoon centering and block­ing
for the South team.
