Campus Blood Drive
Scheduled For Tuesday m The filibuster
*-••••'"*••— - - •«^^'iteunched^ja"J«'eeK''
, The Auburn all-campus blood
drive is scheduled to take place
next Tuesday, April 20, from
9 a.m. to 12 noon and from 1 to
4 p.ni. in the Auburn Union
Ballroom.
John Schell, chairman of the
current blood drive, said that
Dean's Excuses will be issued
during the hours of the drive.
The Red Cross, Circle K, Alpha
Phi Omega, and the Lab Tech
Club will jointly undertake the
project.
BENEFITS
A Red Cross Bloodmobile
will arrive at the Union Building
to receive blood. Each student
will be given a card with
his name which will entitle his
immediate family and him to
free blood for the next eight
months. This card counts as
credit for a lifetime blood card
which entitles the person to
free blood for the rest of his
life. The organizations donating
the most blood will receive trophies.
PERMISSION
Each student under 21 years
of age must obtain permission
from his parents to donate
blood. Permission slips will be
distributed over the campus in
advance.
In last year's drive, Lambda
Chi Alpha fraternity and Zeta
Tau Alpha sorority Were the
two Greek organizations which
contributed the most number of
pints. The total amount collected
in the entire drive was a
iittle over 600 pints.
RECORD
Auburn holds the national
record for any college in collecting
blood in any one drive.
In 1952 during the Korean War,
a total of 1700 pints was collected
in a two-day drive. Auburn
is also outstanding in the
nation among colleges and universities
for giving a large
amount of blood every year.
Education Bill
Appears Dying
Squires Name Miss Village Fair;
Biggin Exhibit Takes School Award
Senate of the Alabama Legislature
and threatens to kill the
$111 million aid to education
bond bill was still going on as
of press time yesterday.
The House of Representatives
last Friday refused to concur
in the Senate's amended
school construction bond issue,
asking instead that the measure
be sent to a conference committee.
The filibuster began after
the Senate agreed not to accept
the request by the House.
This parliamentary maneuver
would have, in effect, told the
House to pass the $111 million
bond bill previously passed by
the Senate. If the House refused,
the bond bill would be
dead.
If passed, the present bill
would provide Auburn with approximately
$12.7 million to be
used for construction purposes.
The proposed $4.5 million sports
arena is a major item to be
financed by the bond issue.
Auburn University officials
are in Montgomery now trying
to assist the passage of the issue
and are hopeful that this can
be resolved.

A MESSAGE TO ROTC COLLEGE MEN
Being an Army officer is a challenge. Officers must be
leaders . . . able to take responsibility... get important
jobs done.
It isn't easy to win a commission as an Army
officer. But if you are taking the Basic Course in
ROTC you're well on your way—provided you can
measure up to the high standards required for admission
to the Advanced Course.
I As a student in one of the 247 colleges and universities
offering senior ROTC training, you are in a
privileged group. There's no better way for any
college man to get the training and skills needed to
be an Army officer than through the on-campus program
created specifically for that purpose—ROTC.
! Here you learn to be a l e a d e r . . . to develop the

qualities that add a vital plus to your academic
training . . . qualities that will pay off for the rest of
your life in whatever career you choose to follow.
There are other advantages too. Pay, at the rate
of $40 per month during the Advanced Course plus
allowances for summer training and travel. Fellowship
and social activity. The chance to work with
modern Army equipment, and perhaps to qualify for
Army flight training if it is offered at your school. And
then gold bars and a commission as an Army officer.
i Why not talk to your Professor of Military Science
now. Let him know you're interested in signing up
for the Advanced Course. Then if you are offered an
opportunity to join, don't pass it up. It's the program
that's best for y o u . . . and best for your country.

Billy Graham Follows On April 27
By CHARLEY MAJORS
Alabama's Governor George C. Wallace and Rev. Billy
Graham, noted evangelist, have scheduled addresses to Auburn's
student body this month.
Gov. Wallace will speak here
on April 22, and Rev. Graham
will speak on April 27, according
to Student Body President
Bill Renneker.
An address by U. S. Sen. John
Sparkman (D-Ala.), which was
scheduled for April 21, has been
cancelled due to expected important
action next week in
Congress. Sen. Sparkman's visit
will be rescheduled for some
date in May.
Gov. Wallace's address will
be one of the events of Auburn's
second annual Governor's
Day. He is scheduled to
speak at 2 p.m. Thursday in
Cliff Hare Stadium. His topic
has not been announced. Council
of Deans' excuses will be
issued to students attending the
program.
Rev. Graham was invited to
speak here in a joint project of
townspeople, the student government,
and the school administration.
His address is
set for April 27 at 10 a.m. in
Cliff Hare Stadium. A special
section will be reserved for
students and faculty. Council of
Deans' excuses will also be
available for his address.
In case of rain at either event.
the addresses will be given in
the Student Activities Building.
If Rev. Graham's address must
be held inside, it will be piped
into the Stadium.
Skit Night Cancelled
By Squires Honorary
Skit Night, originally plannea
for this quarter by Squires,
sophomore men's honorary, has
been postponed until another
quarter, according to a spokesman
for Squires.
The postponement was due to
a vote by the Panhellenic
Council, governing body of the
sorority system, to delay participating
in the event because of
an overload of activities already
planned for this quarter.
"We feel that Skit Night
would not be profitable this
quarter because the sorority
participation is essential," Ebby
Oakley, of Squires, told the
Plainsman.
Anne Williams, president of
the Panhellenic Council, emphasized
that sororities are
"very enthusiastic" about participating
in Skit Night next
year."

City Establishes
Dog Ordinance
Foam Soft
'65 Chevelle MalSm i-Door Station Wagon]
'65 Chevy U Nova Sport Coiipe
By RON CASTILE
Dog owner's and dog lovers
beware! Commencing this past
April 1, the City Council of Auburn
put into effect a new city
dog ordinance requiring licensing
and innoculations of all
dogs in the city limits.
Main provisions of this new
law are:
(1) It shall be unlawful for
any dog to run at large within
the city limits unless such
dog has been innoculated
against rabies, and
(2) It shall be unlawful for
any dog to run at large within
the city limits unless such
dog has been duly licensed by
the agent of the city.
The new ordinance applies to
all dogs over three months old
in the city limits, and the fee
charged for the required innoc-ulation
is $1, while the required
licensing fee is $2.
Any dogs that do not meet
with the above requirements
will be apprehended by the
newly created "Animal Caretaker"
and detained in the City
Animal Shelter for one week
while the owner will try to be
notified.
After this period has elapsed,
the animals will be either destroyed,
sold by the city, or
transferred to the Humane Society.
The cost for redeeming
any of these stray canines is $5
plus boarding costs.
The new ordinance states that
it is not "adopted for revenue
purposes of the city," but the
city seems quite intent on enforcing
the points of the ordinance.
It not only creates the
offices of Animal Caretaker and
Rabies Inspector, but it also im-powers
said caretaker and any
policeman to "enter on any
premises which he has reasonable
cause to believe that a dog j
is kept or harbored and re-

ill We Get A Sports Arena Now?
As we go to press, it looks as though
the proposed multi-million dollar bond
issue now before the state legislature
is doomed for this session. With it will
quite possibly go Auburn's new sports
arena and many other new buildings
and facilities.
Everyone seems to be for a bond
issue, but the Senate and the House
can't seem to agree on the size of the
bill. The Senate has proposed a $111
million bill, and the House proposes a
$126.5 version.
The first crisis the bond issue faced
was in the Senate, where six senators
tried to filibuster the measure to death.
It finally passed the Senate late last
week, however, only to run into the
fact that the House had passed a different
version.
Normally in such cases a joint committee
is set up to work out a compromise
between the two bills. However,
Lt. Gov. James B. Allen says the note
from the House requesting senators
for such a committee is 'lost" and won't
be found till after the special session is
over.
Alabama educators considered the
bond issue vital to the continued
growth of education in Alabama. It
was not a part of Gov. George Wallace's-
$459 million education package, which
did pass this session, but it did have
his approval, if not his strong support.
It looks as though even the strong
support of the Governor would not pass
the measure now. And it seems
doubtful that the legislature would be
willing to provide more money for education
in the regular session.
It will be interesting to see if they
will approve a $4 million appropriation
from emergency funds for a sports
arena. We shall see.
r Make Village Fair Useful
Village Fair was a big success this
ye ar, as it is most years. The only
trouble is that it isn't needed any more,
at least not for its original purpose.
The original purpose was, of course,
to attract high school students to Auburn.
We needed students then, but
we are so crowded now that we are
turning students away, and closing acceptance
of women almost a year early.
Village Fair has undergone several
changes in the past few years and it is
obvious that it will have to undergo
several others soon.
We suggest that in the future Village
Fair be oriented toward the Auburn
student and the press. It should be
turned into a day to show off Auburn to
the state and to its own students.
It has been suggested that the Fair
simply be dropped. We believe, however,
that it can be turned into something
useful.
Discipline Committee Action
It has been over a month and a half
now since the report on changes in
student disciplinary rules was released
by the special subcommittee of the
Joint Discipline Committee, and to the
best of our knowledge no action has
been taken on their recommendations.
We are not saying, of course, that
anyone is deliberately slowing down
action on the rules. In all likelihood,
the members of the committee are simply
too busy to meet right now. With
the state legislature in session, we
know that committee chairman Dr. Robert
C. Anderson, is busy.
However, these rules are of extreme
importance to the student body and
should be acted upon as soon as possible.
Briefly, the proposed changes provide
for two student members of both
the Men's and Women's Discipline committees
instead of the present one for
each committee, and the placing of all
three discipline committees under one
charter rather than the hodge-podge
arrangemept now in effect. There are
several minor rule changes and re-wordings
which are also of importance.
There are many areas of student life
in which rules changes are needed badly,
from discipline to personal conduct
rules. Most of these rule changes would
call for only simple rewording, but
could mean a great deal to the average
student.
We know that the Discipline Committee
will take some sort of action
as soon as they possibly can.
Student Government And Work
No one can doubt that this has been
one of the most hotly contested student
election campaigns in many years. The
candidates went all out for their positions.
Now comes the test—the work involved.
For too often a student will
win a position and not a job. He will
bask in the glory of his office while
doing nothing for the student body.
The justification of student government,
as well as the judgement of its
usefulness, is now in the hands of,a
new group of students.
We wish them luck, but most of all,
we wish them work.
A New Letters Policy
In the past, the Plainsman has always
made an effort to print all letters to
the editor complying with our letters
policy. However, the volume of letters
has increased this year to the point
that we are forced to be selective.
Preference will be given to pertinent
comments on timely issues. Naturally,
the shorter the letter, the greater its
chances of being run.
The position taken in the letter, pro
or con, makes no difference. We welcome
any comment and always try to
print letters which disagree with our
editorial policy.

Student Responsibilities
Demand Right Of Protest
LITTLE MAN ON CAMPUS
By Don Phillips
Students everywhere seem to be taking life
more seriously, not only in their thoughts
buc in their actions.
Witness the students in the civil rights movement, and the
riots at the University r6f California for example. The lie-in,
the sit-in and the walk-in have replaced the panty raid on most
college campuses. right of peaceful protest. The
The reasons behind this trend only real question here is, when
are beyond the scope of this
column, but surrounding the
trend are some very interesting
questions. For instance, what
is academic freedom and who
has it?
As far as teachers go, one of
the best definitions of academic
freedom was given by Arthur
O. Lovejoy, one of the founders
of the American Association
of University Professors (AA-UP).
"Academic freedom," he
wrote, "is the freedom of the
teacher or research worker in
higher institutions of learning
to investigate and discuss the
problems of science and to express
his conclusions, whether
through publications or the instruction
of students, without
interference from political or
ecclesiastical authority, or
from the administrative officials
of the institution in which he
is employed, unless his methods
are found by qualified bodies
of his own profession to be
clearly incompetent or contrary
to professional ethics."
In other words, the teacher
should be free to teach what
he pleases about his subject
without interference, unless his
peers judge him incompetent or
unethical.
But what about the student?
Does he have academic freedom?
The answer seems simple. If
the teacher has freedom to
teach, then surely the student
has freedom to learn and to
inquire. He has the natural
freedom to think, and that
thought process must be free
to exercise itself if the mind is
to grow.
Then comes the question of
the California demonstrations
and others. Few will deny that
any American citizen has the
does it go too far.
The California demonstra
tions went too far. When property
is destroyed and the demonstration
can be called a riot,
then the demonstrators themselves
are stepping on the
rights of others.
One point is clear, however.
The right of peaceful demonstration
must be upheld.
And what of the campus
newspaper?
The University of Wisconsin
Board of Regents, under pressure
from a state legislator to
investigate the alleged Communist
leanings of a student
newspaper managing editor,
said it much better than I can.
They replied unanimously:
"The regents . . . respectfully
but firmly adhere to the board's
long established policy of encouraging
and supporting freedom
of expression in the Daily
Cardinal as well as in all other
academic and extracurricular
functions of this university.
"It would be destructive of
the essence of the Daily Cardinal
as well as in all other academic
and extracurricular functions
of this university.
"It would be destructive of
the essence of the Daily Cardinal
if any authority, whether a
regent, legislator or other, could
prescribe what shall be orthodox
and therefore acceptable
for publication and what shall
be orthodox and therefore interdicted.
"This board deplores attempts
to subject any student editor or
writer to denunciation because
of bis associations or the ancestry
of his associates . . .
Students and all others should
be judged and praised or criticized
upon the ' basis of their
own conduct and demonstrated
worth or lack of it."

The Lonely ,~plack Road . . .
The Hate i For Johnson
Can Turn Treacherously
By Harry Hooper
The old, gnarled woman was working
alone in her truck'stop in Northwest Louisiana
on the road to Shreveport.
It was midnight when three students walked in the cafe. A
bell on top of the, door rang as they entered. They surveyed
the colorful interior of the frame cafe which was filled with
mounted Texas longhorns of
some unfortunate cows born
with beautiful and vain decorations.
Gourds were hanging
from the ceiling, and on the
wall were patches left by
soldiers from the nearby army
post. ~~
She brought the three students
three cups of steaming
coffee which were not as strong
as that in South Louisiana, but
almost as thick. She was a
garrulous woman and supplied
her vorbosity with her coffee
at no extra charge.
"Seems to me," she said,
studying he strange guests,
"everything's wrong with this
country."
The students listened quietly
with great interest as she
damned the foreign aid program
which she said was "aiding
them communists." She said
that President Johnson was going
to let the communists take
over Viet Nam. The soldiers at
the base told her so, she said.
In her unusual dialect she
told of how Johnson's "agitators"
had tried to bring a Negro
soldier into her truck stop and,
of course, had failed. Johnson
was a communist, too, she said,
and at least, she said, if he
wasn't a communist, he was
playing into the communists'
hands.
The students looked out at
the black, misty, stretch of
highway that lay in front of
the cafe, and to a case with
trinkets in it and a pyramid of
post cards on it. It was cool in
the frame building. They asked
for more coffee.
"Crime has become an everyday
thing," she said as she put
the coffees down. Just the other
day a driver had been beaten
on the interstate' she said. She
knew that things were different
and she didn't approve of it.
"Kennedy was bad enough
but I'm really sorry that communist
fellow was obliged to
shoot him. But Johnson! Why
everybody in Texas knows what
kind of a man he is. A crook.
They should shoot him." There
wa§ fire in her eyes bringing
life to her grey head. She said
she. hated him because he was
ruining the country.
"Johnson should be shot like
a dog. Shot dead I mean!"
The students pushed back
the wicker chairs and as one
placed some coins in her hand,
she said again, "Some one
should shoot Johnson."
One of the students looked
into her eyes and said softly,
"If they kill Johnson then
Hubert Humphrey will be
President."
She bit her lip and said slowly,
"I hadn't thought of that."
The students said goodbye
and walked into the cold night.
They entered the car and
headed down the long, black,
lonely road that leads to
Shreveport and Texas. And no
one spoke.

Student Interest, Money
Can Secure Entertainers
By Mary Whitley
Surprises take many forms. Auburn's
latest was the Village Fair entertainment
which took place Saturday night in the stadium.
After a long, hopefully happy, but tiring day visitors and
students poured into Cliff Hare to await the announcement of the
exhibit winners, Miss Village Fair, and most of all to relax,
unwind, and hear the entertainers
engaged for the evening.
The big moment came—and
there they were — "The Four
Freshmen," a talented group
with an act geared for nightclub
or television performances
who, try as they might, just
couldn't inspire the high school
or the college set.
It becomes increasingly easy
for those of us not directly involved
with engaging entertainers
to find fault with the
selection of the committee responsible.
But, here we must
realize that there are at least
two sides to every story. Major
concerns in selecting entertainers
are money, availability, and
student interest.
(This year it was "The Let-termen"
who appeared at the
ODK-Glomerata beauty presentation
who carved a large
section from the student-activi-ties-
fee-supp o r t e d entertainment
fund.)
It is admirable to hear students
advocate "more and better
popular entertainment,"
while keeping in mind that the
expense of it will be borne by
themselves. But, things aren't
as black as they seem. With a
little careful planning, some
maneuvering and bargaining for
entertainers, and a little
stretching of the student activities
funds, Auburn's popular
entertainment programs can be
improved.
It might be well for us to
take a look at the colleges and
universities around us and try
one of their "sure fire" methods.
Several junior colleges. here in
the state have had superior popular
entertainment programs
for years.
East Tennessee State University
has taken a giant step
in this direction. In less than
a year they have presented five
big name groups at little additional
expense to students.
Entertainers i n c l u d e d 'Al
Hirt," "Peter, Paul, and Mary,"
and "The Brothers Four." At
the annual Southern Universities
Student Government Association
workshop held there
in October "The Chad Mitchell
Trio" performed to an overflow
crowd who sought encore
after encore.
The question arises, would
an additional $.50 or $1.00 per
person raise the calibre of performers
or merely decrease the
size of the Auburn audience?
Still fresh in our minds is
last year's fiasco when several
grbups scheduled to perform in
the stadium were "rained into"
the student activities" building.
This misfortune cost an interested,
well meaning local
organization untold hours of
misery and put them several
thousand dollars in debt. For
those who saw the show it was
well worth the money paid. But,
a proven fact enters in here:
when it rains students hesitate
to go to the Student Ac Building.
However, it would be hard to
turn down performances by
"The Chad Mitchell Trio," "Al
Hirt," "The Kingston Trio,"
"The Christy-Minstrels," or
"The Brothers Four" when the
additional expense to the student
would be no more than
the cost of a local movie.
A step toward a possible
solution might be distribution
of a questionnaire to students
during fall registration (including
a list of popular entertainers
priced within the entertainment
budget.). Let the students
decide whether they would be
willing to pay at the gate.
The Native Son . . .
King Is Only A Fanatic;
History Will Be Objective
By Jerry Brown
They will speak of the Selma march and
the "boycott" and Martin Luther King for a
long time—they still talk about John Brown.
But history remembers John Brown as an insane man who
never helped the Negro cause; how it will evaluate King?
A great deal has been said about the march presently; yet
too much has gone unheralded, native son, there is no ani-
Martin Luther King is taking mosity toward the Negro; he
undeserved laurels. Consider
the manner in which the Washington
politicians, the clergy,
the Federal judges, the Northern
population, certain slanted
newspapers, have been at his
beck and call. He has had this
country on a string. Pictures
have been taken of him at a
Communist school; Harry Truman
has called him a "trouble
maker;" and J. Edgar Hoover,
director of the FBI and one of
the most respected men in the
United States today, has labeled
him "a notorious liar." We must
weigh these opinions carefully
and seriously.
The conscientious native son
with all his inherited traditions
can only feel frustrated at seeing
this man come haughtily
into his state and make trouble
for trouble's sake. To the true
has grown up in quiet farms
and in small towns here. He
realizes that the Negro, even
in Lowndes County, has voting
rights. He has attended
churches and heard the "right"
expounded. He has known better
than to take his vengeance
out in murderous Klan raids.
Yet MLK comes here and leads
a pointless march only because
he can, and he tries to decorate
it too elaborately with boycotts
and clergy and political power.
The conscientious native son
can only wait, and hope.
For a man who has received
the Nobel Prize, he has shown
a marked lack of respect for
"law and order." He will rely
on a court order, then he will
violate the rulings made by the
same court. He has been allowed
to make his own laws.

Antique Laws
Label Georgia
'Bloodthirsty'
By George Gardner
A 10-year-old boy accused of
digging in a graveyard is
marched into a small room. He
is strapped to a metal chair. A
black hood is placed over his
head.
A switch is
pulled a nd
within s e c onds
his life
is s n u f f ed
out.
Sounds like
s h e e r fantasy.
But until
two years
a g o it could
h a p p e n in
Georgia.
It can still happen today with
one slight change: the boy must
now be 17 years old.
The point? Simply this: many
states' law books are cluttered
with cruel, antique, useless
laws.
The Georgia Legislature passed
a bill in 1883 setting the age
limit for capital punishment at
10. And it took nearly 80 years
to change the age limit to 17.
During the past 50 years
Georgia has earned the title of
"the bloodthirsty state" by
leading the nation in executions.
While many states (and nations)
have been leaning away
from capital punishment in recent
decades, Georgia has averaged
killing 10 persons a year
for the past 41 years. This total
includes 23 teenagers in the last
22 years.
There are 10 different categories
of crime punishable by
. the electric chair in Georgia.
They include arson, castration,
homicide, insurrection, kidnapping,
rape, robbery and treason.
Perhaps the most ridiculous
examples of offenses where'the
death penalty is applicable are
desecration of graves and the
burning of a railroad bridge.
Robbery by force—s.uichh as
purse snatching—must Irate a
close second. 19.
Why are timeworn laws calling
for such out-dated punishment
still in effect? No >one
seems quite sure. cndi
"A lot of our laws need to be
changed—but there just isn't
a n y o n e who is concerned
enough to crusade for the
changes," said a Georgia, judge
recently. *, ,ai>
Proof that many of Georgia's
capital punishment laws — designed
during slavery days —
are applied in a discriminatory
manner is evident. Some 160 of
the 200 persons electrocuted
since 1943 were Negroes—an
even 80 per cent.
Any judge or law enforce
ment officer will tell you quite
frankly that anyone who can
afford a good lawyer won't die
in the chair. The trouble is,
most Negroes can't afford to
hire a lawyer.
A public defender system
might be the answer to this regretful
situation. But modifying
or abolishing capital punishment
would be more realistic.
Warden R. P. Balkcom of the
Reidsville State Prison is one
man who doesn't have mixed
emotions on the subject of capital
punishment.
He is so revulsed at the idea
that he refuses to witness any
of the scores of executions
there.
A recent Gallup Poll showed
45 per cent of Americans favor
it while 43 per cent would like
to see it abolished. Only 12
people in every 100 don't have
an opinion on the subject.
Opposition to death by the
state has increased considerably
in recent years. In 1953 only
25 per cent of Americans opposed
it.
Meanwhile, Georgia continues
to use her old-fashioned
laws to reaffirm her title as
"the bloodthirsty state."
So keep your fingers crossed
that you don't get caught digging
for fishbait too near an
old graveyard. You could wind
up in the electric chair charged
with "desecrating a grave" —
plus 12,000 volts!
Perhaps for that he has been
awarded the prize.
But all of his clandestine goings-
on have been masked. The
world has not awakened to the
real MLK. But the native son
must realize that history will
have the final say and it will
most likely treat King much as
it has John Brown; King has
only proven himself in that
same vein — a fanatic with a
cause.
Patience is a virtue.
Our day will come.
The Faculty Speaks . . .
Anti-Poverty Battle Keys
On Aspirations Of Poor
By Dr. John E. Dunkelberger
Every society has its myths and our society
is no exception. None of the myths are more
pronounced than those involving the poor and
poverty, vvnai is the myth? It is the widespread belief that
poverty is a natural and necessary requisite of human existence.
Since the poor have always been among us, it is believed that
they will and must always exist in the future.
Why do we believe in this
myth? Perhaps it is, in part,
because of our religious values,
which contend that the poor in
this world will be rewarded in
the next—be it in a reincarnate
state or in Nirvana. Further religious
support is provided by
the Protestant ethic and the
philosophy of Calvin which suggests
that the poor live in poverty
as a form of Divine punishment.
Again the reward for accepting
this condition is a higher
station in the next world.
Can such beliefs be accepted
today in our affluent society?
An important national program
is now underway to combat
poverty in this country. The
basic proposition undergirding
this program is the belief, not in
the myth, but in the ability of
man to improve his social and
economic existence. Poverty is
not accepted as a necessary
aspect of human existence. Instead,
it is believed that man
has the potential, through his
technological capacities to produce
and his compassion for his
fellow man, to overcome this
waste of human resources.
Clearly the anti-poverty program
is not going to solve the
poverty problem in the near
future. It will be a long struggle
with success largely dependent
upon the poor themselves.
In order for change to
occur, the poor must want to
change. They must aspire to
improve their lot. According to
the poverty myth, poor people
are assumed to lack the ambition
and attitudes toward work
and life required to improve. If
this lack of ambition actually
exists, then very real problems
are in store for this program.
However, there is a question
whether the poor really lack
ambition- or only lack the ambition
characteristic of middle
class people in American society.
The answer to this question
can prove to be a major
factor in combating this problem.
' • - P
What about the aspirations
of the poor, especially their occupational
aspirations? A research
project on poverty in
rural a#eas of the Southern
region, which includes parts of
Appalachia, the Southern Piedmont,
and Mississippi Delta
subregions, is currently in progress
at Auburn. This study is
concerned with the attitudes
and aspirations of the adult
poor in rural society. Special
interest centers on the ideas the
poor have of their chances to
improve their social and economic
condition.
Research results have shown
that a large proportion of the
rural poor are dissatisfied with
their existing social and economic
situation. Dissatisfaction
was extremely acute with regard
to their current jobs and
incomes. They were not content
with their lot, as the myth
would have us believe.
Dissatisfaction with the status
quo, however, is not a sufficient
ground upon which to attack
poverty. More important, perhaps,
is whether the poor also
aspire to improve their situation.
Two procedures were used to
indicate the level of occupational
aspiration. The first approach
indicated that these poor
people thought in terms of immediate
goals consistent with
their potentials for achievement.
Their occupational aspirations
were presented in terms of
steady, nonseasonal work and
good pay. They were currently
employed as blue collar workers
and farmers; and their
aspirations were expressed in
terms of improvements within
these occupational categories.
Although they aspired to better
jobs, they did not aspire to
white collar, middle class occupations.
A second approach was used
involving a projective technique
designed to indicate the subconscious
level of occupational
aspiration. This was done by
finding their occupational aspiration
for a young son just
ready to begin his adult life.
It was observed that subconsciously
these poor people possessed
the same middle class
occupational values as characterize
American society in
general. At the subconscious
level they desired white collar
occupations. This finding suggests
the lack of aspiration referred
to in the "poverty
myth" results from the fact
that they have adjusted their
levels of aspiration downward.
They have developed two independent
sets of occupational
aspirations in an attempt to
adapt themselves psychologically
to the realities of the world
in which they live.
Another question concerning
the aspirations of the poor involves
the intensity with which
they desire their low level occupational
goals. This look was
considered and the results indicated
a high proportion of the
rural poor were very desirous
of improving their socio-economic
situation, even to the
point of being willing to endanger
their health in order to
obtain a better job and economic
improvement. Even
though their levels of occupational
aspiration were low by
middle class standards, the desire
to attain their low level
goals was very intense.
The poverty problem in rural
areas, of the South cannot be
attributed to the lack of ambition
and desire among the
poor to improve their situation.
But these people do lack the
personal and financial resources
needed to help themselves. It is
concluded that any extensive
improvement in the condition
of the poor is possible only
with the aid of agencies representing
the larger society.
In order to improve, the poor
need education and vocational
training. They need guidance
and counseling about job opportunities
and requirements. They
need financial aid to help support
their families while acquiring
needed training and
job placement. And most of
all they must be taught to
value education as a continuous
adult interest and need.
A full scale attack must be
directed at the poor designed
to replace their stereotyped attitude
that "education is for
kids" with a desire for education
and training as a means
of improving their own social
and economic situation. The
federal, anti-poverty program
can be such a program. Only
the future will tell whether this
program succeeded in linking
the need for education and
training to the favorable attitudes
and ambition that exist
among a large portion of the
poor.

In Racial Outbreaks
U.S. Really Loses
Editor, the Plainsman:
In answer to Mr. Gardner's
column on Alabama being the
loser in the racial demonstrations
in Selma. I disagree.
The United States is the real
loser. The elected representatives
of the United States openly
advocate the Communistic
inspired racial demonstrations
and all but ordered the Alabama
Government to give the
Communists protection.
He said that the people of
Alabama tolerated signs ir.
business establishments which
read "White Only." What is
wrong with this? You never
hear anything about "Colored
Only" signs. If a man, regardless
of race, has spent his life
building a business, he should
have the right to choose his
customers. No so-called legislation
can change the right to
own private property.
One other point he mentioned
was our toleration of the Ku
Klux Klan. He failed to mention
that the people of the
United States tolerate a much
more dangerous organization
that is intent on our destruction—
that being the Communist
Party.
Joining the list as losers are
the Southern Negroes. They are
allowing outside agitators to
play their roles and these agitators
are only interested in the
immorality opportunities these
marches and demonstrations
provide them. They don't care
about Southern Negro obtaining
freedom — freedom from
what?
If the Negro continues these
so-called freedom marches and
demonstrations, they are going
to make matters worse. If the
white employers fired their
Negro help, quit giving them
places to live, quit feeding and
clothing them, and quit paying
their doctor bills—where would
the Negro be then?

Auburn Should Secure
'Appropos' Entertainers
Editor, the Plainsman:
The Village Fair Committee
did an excellent job of planning
and preparing exhibits, and
even a good job at getting the
high schoolers here. But, they
sure did strike out on the entertainment.
Last Saturday night I witnessed
another typical Auburn
University presentation of talent.
As per usual, a large
amount of our Student Activities
fee was spent on "big
name" entertainment (who the
heck are those old men down
there?).
Schools much smaller than
Auburn have been known to
present, in one year, such entertainment
as: Ray Charles, Al
Hirt, Peter, Paul, and Mary,
and the Four Seasons. Perhaps
not all of the above named entertainers
interest everyone, but
surely most of us would be interested
in at least three of
them.
A popular group such as the
Four Seasons would be much
better for a high school audience
(I should think that most
Auburn students would enjoy
them too). The Four Freshmen
might make good night club entertainment,
or perhaps a good
dance band, but they are hardly
what most of us wanted to see
brought to our campus with
our money.
I personally, have heard
nothing good said about the
Four Freshmen, save the fact
that the bass player was a riot.
The present popular entertainment
committee might do well
to re-examine itself to see if it
is presenting what the student
wants to see. Little fault (indeed,
if any) can be found with
the Lettermen, presented last
fall. Let's have more like them
and less like the Four Freshmen.
Might I throw in just one
passing barb at the Lecture and
Concert series in closing? How
much did it cost us students to
present Bazil Rathbone to a
paltry crowd of about 500?
If each of us is to pay an $8.50
Student Activities fee each
quarter, why can't somebody
take the time to find out what
kind of entertainment we want
to see. And why can't we have
that kind?

Are Riots Necessary
To Eliminate Apathy?
Editor, the Plainsman:
Having just attended a session
of the Leadership Seminar
sponsored by the University
Freshman Council I.have finally
decided to write the often
contemplated letter to the
Plainsman.
As one of the 8 or 10 who
were present I found the program
well-planned, well-executed,
and poorly attended. This
seems to be the case at most
of the projects laboriously planned
for the students by one
branch or another of the student
government. The Council
of Deans felt this seminar was
of sufficient importance to issue
excuses to all those who at±
tended, but the students did not
attend.
Is it necessary to offer a door
prize, a color cartoon, or a
possible riot to stimulate students
to take advantage of the
activities of Auburn University?
If so, it is surprising that Auburn
has progressed to the degree
that it has. With student
government elections and rule
changes which affect both men
and women students at hand it
seems that the students who
make up Auburn would wake
up.
This is the time to leave the
ivory tower of indifference and
become a part of Auburn. It
won't hurt you, and, unbelieve-

Colorado Student Gives
'Apartment' Opinion
Editor, the Plainsman:
Several weeks ago I received
a copy of the Plainsman and
was interested in reading a
rather sarcastic editorial concerning
women's regulations at
Auburn.
At the present time I am vice-president
of the AWS at the
University of Colorado and
chairman of the Women's Disciplinary
Board. Our association
has spent the last year totally
reorganizing the philosophy
and structure of this AWS and
the results have been so successful
and exciting that I feel
the approach should be considered
at Auburn.
Briefly, we feel that university
women are intelligent
responsible adults and should
lected in a two-day drive. Au-tent
necessary lor their safety.
The entire concept of "in loco
parentis" is rejected as damaging
both to the student and to
the university.
The primary concern of AWS
at the University of Colorado
is to aid women in deriving the
maximum possible benefits —
both academic and non-academic—
from the university.
Since the greatest problems
facing women today are those
of integration into the social
and economic fabric of the nation,
our efforts are concentrated
in the area of programming.
AWS has established a
vocational opportunities center
for women, we are sponsoring
conferences on the problems
facing talented women, and we
have been investigating employment
discrimination on account
of sex.
Regulations are placed on an
individual basis determined by
the demonstrated maturity of
the student (there are 6,500
women in the university). All
women who are seniors of
twenty-one years of age receive
a "Senior Key." This enables
her to enter and exit her
residence at her discretion. Keys
may be signed out at any time
before closing and the only
stipulation is that the woman
return before 8 a.m.
Junior women may petition
to receive key privileges and if
their records demonstrate a pattern
of mature behavior the
privilege is granted.
Our "Senior Key" program
has been in effect eleven years
and has proved to be highly
successful. Junior keys were
established this year and if
successful will be extended to
sophomores in one or two years.
Hours are uniform for all women
not having a key privilege:
11 p.m. on week nights and
1 a.m. on week-ends. Each
woman may sign out for five
2:30's a semester.
The program has been such
an outstanding success at Colorado
that I believe it would be
beneficial for Auburn to at
least consider portions of it. I
know that Colorado is often
considered to be a "party
school" but the impression is
misleading. The university is
currently rated among the top
twenty in the nation and has
produced outstanding percentages
of Rhodes and Woodrow
Wilson Scholars. One reason, I
believe, is the individual responsibility
placed upon each
student.

Nothing Could Be Finer Than Sports:' Jeanne Swanner
By GERALD RUTBERG
Jeanne Swanner is a crowd-stopping, six foot,
two inch beauty, but that doesn't begin to describe
the stature she has achieved in the eyes of contest
judges, physical education instructors, and her fellow
students.
When Jeanne assumes the reins as president of the
Auburn Women's Student Government Association on Monday,
April 19, she will have added another laurel to an already
full circle of excellence.
As Miss North Carolina for 1964, Jeanne made 500 personal
appearances in 365 days, and even now that she has
come back to continue her education, additional engagements
in the Tar Heel state keep her flying from Columbus
every weekend.
But how has Jeanne managed to turn what could easily
be a restricting liability into a valuable asset?
The answer Jeanne found might well serve to inspire
others who feel they have been saddled with a natural
handicap..
Sports has been the stunning and graceful brunette's
equalizer.
Instead of being a figure subject to gawking glances,
Jeanne developed her physical attributes to a point where
she earned great admiration as the star of her high school
basketball team.
In North Carolina, where girls basketball is a part of the
regular physical education program, Jeanne shunted what
could have been a "freak" label and became a subject
for idol-worship by leading her team to the conference
6—THE PLAINSMAN Friday, April 16,1965
JEANNE SWANNER
championship.
"I was six feet tall when I was 13," says the girl voted
Miss Congeniality by her fellow contestants in the 1964
Miss America pageant." At 13, everything is important, and
everything has got to go right for you," she asserts. By
excelling in the cage sport, Jeanne opened the door to a
spectacular life.
Basketball however, is not the only sport at which
Jeanne is outstanding, for she is currently the women's
intramurals shuffleboard title-holder, as well as an excellent
swimmer and volleyball participant. In addition, Jeanne
was chosen by a poll of women's intramural cage team
managers as the Best Basketball Official for 1965.
Mrs. Rawls, head of the women's intramural program,
calls Jeanne "one of the most outstanding co-ed basketball
players I've ever seen at Auburn."
What Jeanne has gained from athletics however, is being
repaid by the 21-year old physical education major in the
all-important area of the women's physical education
"image."
For generations, talented American women have avoided
a physical education career because of the lower status such
a vocation has been assigned, according to a number of PE
instructors. The, PE major has been stereotyped and any
concerted effort to encourage women in this vital area has
between thwarted as a threat to femininity.
Physical education authorities throughout the nation
are pointing to Jeanne Swanner as the new "image" of
women in the physical education field. They are hoping
Jeanne's example will help to correct some long-mistaken
impressions.
In the classroom, Jeanne again leads the field. Last
quarter, taking 21 hours in addition to her many extra-curricular
endeavors, Jeanne made the Dean's List with a
sterling 2.57 grade point average.
Alpha Gam sorority sister Marilyn Parker claims, "Jeanne
never has a bad day. She is always a lot of fun to be with
and around."
Quite often, Jeanne receives letters from tall girls or
their parents on the emotional difficulties involved in standing
above the crowd. "I try to tell them that a tall girl
is going to be noticed, and that they should try to become
interested in sports. This is one way they can help themselves.
Sports has been a great aid to me, and can be a
great help to them as well," Jeanne relates.
In order to keep her spirits up under the constant pressure
of meeting so many obligations, Jeanne operates under
the "Bubble Theory." Jeanne's description of the "Bubble
Theory" is "if anything goes wrong, don't let it get you
down. First thing of how lucky you are. Don't worry if
the bubble bursts."
Apparently the theory works, for the talented and vivacious
beauty's bubble seems to grow larger with every
achievement.
Alabama Next Victim
For Speedy Cindermen
By BILL CURRENT-GARCIA
* - 'The University of Alabama track team under the
tutelage of ex-grid coach Red Drew will challenge Auburn's
cindermen in a dual meet here tomorrow. Coach
Drew has handled the Tide track team for 23 years since
1931 and is scheduled to retire after the end of this
season. \g man Warren Hardy of Mont-
The'Tigers will seek to extend
their SEC dual meet win
skein to 17 contests, after having
administered a 85-56 beating
to Georgia in Athens last
Saturday.
TIDE LOSERS
Alabama will be attempting
to make Auburn their first victim
of the season after having
dropped their only dual meet of
the season by a margin of 73-
71 to Memphis State on a rain-drenched
field on April 3 in
Tuscaloosa.
Last season the Tide finished
with an 0-5 record, their only
winless season in their track
history. Auburn contributed to
their misery by handing them
an 83-57 setback in Tuscaloosa.
LEADER RETURNS
However, Alabama returns
their leading point producer
from that team, senior weight
gomery. Hardy placed first in a
large field of shot put contestants
in the Florida Relays on
March 27 with a heave of 54
feet 4% inches. The 6 ft., 4 in.
strong man finished first in the
shot and discus events against
Memphis State.
HARDY IMPRESSIVE
His discus toss of 160.5 feet
against State represents his best
career effort in that event.
Hardy is also a threat to score
points in the throwing of the
javelin.
Individual high point man for
the Tide against Memphis State
was Bucky Wood who claimed
14 points in six events including
a first place in the broad
jump.

NROTC Sharpshooters Smash Sooners
By GERALD RUTBERG
The University of Oklahoma's
Navy ROTC rifle team bit the
dust last Saturday to Auburn's
crack NROTC squad in an in-tracontinental
duel held at Norman,
Okla. The victory pushed
Auburn's season record to 8-1-
1.
Firing for the five-member
Tiger outfit which closed its
1964-65 campaign with a 1364
to 1318 win over the Sooners,
were Jerry Pullium, with a 284;
James Pelli, 275; Nick Carbone,
273; Roger Hull, 267; and William
Schoch. 265.
All of Auburn's matches prior
to the Sooner contest were conducted
on a postal basis, with
each squad shooting on home
grounds and then forwarding
the results to the opposing unit
to determine the winner.
For the season, Auburn's
Navy u n i t defeated similar
NROTC squads representing the
Universities of Minnesota, Colorado,
Utah, and Virginia, as
well as Oregon State, Vanderbilt,
and Brown Universities.
The Tigers only loss was inflicted
by the University ^ of
North Carolina Naval rifle
squad while the marksmen tied
with the University of South
Carolina at 1401 points apiece
out of a possible 1500 points in
the match.
Although the Naval sharpshooters
did not fire against
Auburn's Army ROTC rifle
squad this year, plans are being
made for an interservice match
to be held next season.

Jackets Dumped Twice
By Tiger Baseballers
The Rambling Wrecks have
returned to Atlanta following a
disastrous collision with Auburn's
growling Tigers. Last
Friday and Saturday, Coach
Nix's baseballers blasted t he
Jackets of Georgia Tech by
scores of 12-2 and 4-0. In addition
to the Tech victory, Auburn's
chances of again winning
the Eastern Division title were
strengthened by a University
of Florida loss to Georgia.
The Tigers now claim a record
of eight wins, including
Wednesday's stomping of Oglethorpe
by the margin of 11-2.
The only defeats on Auburn's
schedule have been at the hands
of Florida and FSU who each
won a pair of games from
Coach Nix's nine.
CRYSEL, FRYER HOMER
In Friday's destruction of
Tech, both Jimmy Crysel and
Frank Fryer slapped Tiome runs.
"Fryer is a fine fielder and a
good hitter," commented Coach
Nix. "We expect a lot of him
the remainder of this season
and again next year," he said.
Saturday's contest was not
the run-away of the previous
day, although the Jackets were
never allowed to pose any serious
threat. Montie Sharpe took
the mound on Saturday and
held the Jackets to a no-run
game. T h e second meeting
found the Atlantans with no
runs, seven hits, and one error;
to four runs, seven hits and one
error for the Plainsmen. Fryer
was again Auburn's top batsman
with Scotty Long joining
him for game honors.
TITLE HOPES
Although Auburn has lost
four games, the Tigers are again

Golfers To Play
In 3-Way Meet
"Tom Flint, Bill Whitten,
Mike Keeble and Andy Ferguson,
all had 74's and we still got
beat," exclaimed Coach Sonny
Dragoin following the Auburn
golf team's 13-5 loss, to the
Georgia Bulldogs in Athens.
For the week, the Tigers captured
one of four matches,
s m o t h e r i n g Huntingdon's
Hawks by a 23-4 margin, while
bowing to Indiana 10% to IVz,
Georgia Tech 20 to 7, and to
Georgia.
On Monday, the linksmen
journey to face Huntingdon
College in a rematch as well as
taking on the Athens College
golfers for the first time, in a
three-way golf meet.
"A lack of depth and erratic
play by the boys I'd counted
on to win are what's hurting
us," claims the Tiger links
mentor, "I think perhaps we'll
defeat Georgia Tech at home.
The 20-7 score was not entirely
indicative of the match as
we were even after nine holes."
Vinny Giles was medalist in
the Tiger-Bulldog fray with a
70, while Terry Comstock of Indiana
took low scoring honors
in the Hoosier-Auburn duel.
Tom Flint and Randy McGee
of Auburn had identical 71's to
tie for medalist honors against
Huntingdon, and Mike Keeble
registered a 71 to take low scoring
honors in the Tiger-Tech
fray.

Tigers Trample 'Dogs
In Athens Track Meet
By BOB SNELLGROVE
Amassing a total of 10 first
place finishes, Auburn downed
the University of Georgia track
team 85-56 in last Saturday's
dual track meet.
Bill McCormick led Auburn
to its victory by nailing first
place in both the 100 yard and
220 yard dashes, plus anchoring
the 440 relay.
MORE RAN
According to Coach Mel Rosen,
"The team did pretty well.
This was especially true since
some of the boys were able to
perform this week who were
not in action against Florida
State. The fact is that McCormick
was unable to run in last
week's meet."
Auburn was particularly
strong in the distance runs,
winning both the mile and two
mile runs.

"Gator" Williams, in winning
the mile was closely followed
by two mates as the Tigers nailed
down the first three places
in the race. Auburn followed
the mile victory with a clean
sweep of the two mile run, won
by John Anderson.
Another first place winner
for Auburn was Wade Curing-ton,
who "ran very well" according
to Coach Rosen. Cur-ington
was winner in the 440
yard dash and a member of the
winning mile relay team.
Backing up Coach Rosen's
prediction "that we are on the
right track, coming along real
fine," the mile relay crew of
George Cobb, Dixie Foster,
Glenn McWaters, and Curing-ton
ran their best time of the
season. {3:19.9)
SMITH'S BEST
Besides the relay teams, others
who merited comment by
Coach Rosen included the winner
of the high hurdles and the
intermediate hurdle runner-up
Jim Smith. "This was undoubtedly
Smith's best performance
since he has been at Auburn."
GUY WINS AT HOME
Big Freddie Guy, playing in
his native state, was the winner
in the javelin throw. His win
was a strengthening factor in
the field events.
Bill Meadows, hampered by a
cold last week, failed to meet
his usual form in the triple
jump and finished second in the
event.
After suffering a defeat at
the hands of Sid Gainey of FSU
last week, Tom Mitchell was
beaten by Sid's older brother
Lewis of Georgia.
Looking ahead to the upcoming
meet with Alabama, Coach
Rosen stated, "the meet should
be a good one.
"Alabama has some very
good boys. They are particularly
strong in the" discus, shot,
and intermediate runs.
"I am looking for our depth
to overcome the slack. It should
be a close meet," he said.
The Tiger thinclads will meet
Alabama Saturday at 1:30.

Spring football practice began last Monday with 82
freshmen, sophomores, and juniors seeking places on
next year's grid squad.
Spring activity will culminate with the annual A-Day

tants have 20 practice days allotted
them in the spring by
the SEC to watch the '64 freshmen,
varsity lettermen and returnees
who did not letter.
FIND REPLACEMENTS
.Their main job will be to try
to find replacements for 17
graduating lettermen. Graduation
removed the entire defensive
backfield and the deep offensive
backfield. The largest
empty spot is that left by All-
America Tucker Frederickson.
Frederickson was a standout
safety on defense and an offensive
fullback.
The majority of the line returns.
The backfield slots will be
harder to fill with few experienced
defensive back available.
Prospects are not much
better on the offensive side of
the line.
In Monday's opening practice,
the Tigers r a n through
numerous drills and ended the
session with 25 minutes of
scrimmage.
PICTURE DAY
Tuesday was picture taking
day for the squad, with world
famous s p o r t s photographer
Jim Laughead behind the camera.
Wednesday, in the planning,
was to be a practice day,
but many of the hopefuls had
labs. Consequently, a session of
wind sprints and running substituted
for regular drills.

Frosh Nine Opens With Win
By GENE PHILLIPS
On April 3, the freshman
Tigers donned their baseball
togs for the first time and preceded
to whip Southern Union
College by a 6-2 margin. Coach
Walker's nine will slug it out
again with Union College on the
17th of April in Wadley, Ala.,
with hopes of preserving their
so far perfect recoftd.
Walker was pleased with the
outcome of the opener, and he
feels that there is much potential
talent to be found on his
freshman team. Only five of
Auburn's 13 freshman players
are on grants-in-aid from the
university, and they all happen
to fall into the pitcher category.
Coach Walker was satisfied
with the performance of players
on scholarships, and he said
there were several other players
who made the team who
will probably see varsity action
in the future.
The freshmen have a seven
game schedule planned, but as
yet the order of the remaining
games has not been decided up-fields
were not planted with
grass.
Construction of new fields
has caused new ground rules to
be put into effect. A decision
had to be made before the
quarter began whether or not
to have intramural softball this
spring. The only way softball
competition is possible is by using
the newly instituted ground
rules which were adopted for
safety reasons.

squad.
Coach Young feels that "if
we play as good as we did at
Tuscaloosa, we'll have a good
chance at them. We played on a
different surface there. However,
it would definitely be an
upset if we beat them."
Pointing to some of the stellar
performances turned in by his
netters thus far this season,
Young commented that" I think
the team is doing all it can do.
Four members of the team are
exceeding their potential."
Last Tuesday, Auburn defeated
Alabama College by an
8-1 margin with the Tigers
taking all but the number one
singles match. Against Howard
College on Monday, Auburn
fell by a 6-3 score. Plainsman
victories were scored by Charles
Frye and Bob Hurst in singles,
with Hurst joining Eddie Williamson
to capture the number
three doubles event.
Obviously outclassed, the
non-scholarship Tiger squad
absorbed a 9-0 whitewash inflicted
by the powerful Georgia
Bulldogs. Coach Young calls the
'Dogs "the best team we played
this year by far."
Plans are currently being
formulated to coordinate the
