Tuition HikePlanned
September '68
A proposed $15 per quarter fee hike will not go into
effect until September 1968, President Harry M. Phil-pott
announcedWednesday.
The fee hike, authorized by the Board of Trustees last
October, would raise the regular tuition fee from $100
per quarter to $115 and the
out-of-state tuition from $200
to $230 per quarter.
The fee increase would
amount to $45 an academic
year for regular students,
with as much as a$90-a-year
increase for out-of-state students.
The $15 increase includes
both residents and non-resi-of
Alabama. Thenon-residents
now paying the $100 tuition
fee plus $100 out-of-state fee,
would pay the $115 fee for residents
plus the $115 for nonresidents
"It has always been our
desire to hold fees as low
as possible," Dr. Philpott
said, "but due to increase
in costs at all levels, it will
be necessary to make this
adjustment that was authorized
by the Board at their
last regular meeting in
October, 1966.

First Winter Production
Trustees had always tried
to keep Auburn, as a land
grant institution, at a fee
level so as to be within
financial reach of all eligible
Alabama students," the
president continued.
Auburn's fees, Philpott
said, have traditionally been
about 17 per cent lower than
comparable institutions in
the South.
The president decided
not to put the fee increase
into effect during the'66-'67
school year, but to wait
until September '68 to increaseithefees.
The first winter Players'
production, "Antigone,"
opened to a full house at
Players Theatre Tuesday
night.
Tickets are available for
most performances which
continue through next Saturday.
Curtain time is at
8:15 p.m.
Reservations for tickets
may be made at the drama
office in the Music Annex or
by calling 826-4154. Tickets
are free to students with ID
cards.
The modern French adaptation
of the Greek tragedy
concerns the heroine,
Antigone, and her decision
to follow divine law despite
pressure from the ruling
classes.
Written by Jean Anoilh,
Antigone, played by Kandy
Walker, is represented as a
maiden of noble and unselfish
character. Her devotion
to her father, Oedipus, leads
her to accompany him in
exile from Thebes. Affection
for her brother, Polynices,
gives her courage to defy
the prohibition of Creon,
ruler of Thebes, played by

at 8:15 in the Student Activities
Building. The concert is
third the current Concert and
Lecture Series.
Montoya was the first flamenco
guitarist to appear in a
solo concert without the aid
or a singer or dancer. .Before
this, no flamenco guitarist had
a complete piece to play during
an accompaniment. Most of
an act was improvised during
the performance and forgotten
when it was completed.
Montoya captured the improvisation,
creativity and
sensitive muscianship of the
flamenco and produced a com-pb
te musical piece which
can be understood arid appreciated
by the public in general.
Unlike the classical guitarist,
he can not rely on the
musical compositions of
others. Montoya cannot read
one note of music.
A child prodigy, Montoya
first appeared in concert at
age of 14 with the "Cuardos
Flamencos during the heyday
of flamenco singing and danc

many distinguished
dancers in the Spanish theater.

Debate With Vama
Slated For AC0IA
By BRUCE GILLILAND
An old rivalry will add new impetus to a debate between
Auburn and the University of Alabama during the
the 1967 Auburn Conference on International Affairs.
The debaters will discuss the U.S. involvement in
the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and the
topic will be "Should the
U.S. withdraw from NATO?"
Speaking for the affirmative
will be Auburn debaters
Mary Fischer and John
Schell. From Alabama,
Barbara Gilbert and James
Spencer will debate the negative.
The debate will be held
Feb. 10 at 3 p.m. at theStu-dent
Activities building. Auburn's
debate coach Jim
Vickrey said, "We like to debate
Alabama because the
rivalry carries over into these
debates, and they always
have a fine team, one of the
finest in the conference. We
Council Adds
Four Members
Four new members have
been appointed by President
Harry M. Philpott to the
Graduate Council upon recommendation
by Graduate
School Dean W.V. Parker.
The new members, filling
expired terms, are Dr. Ward
Allen, associate professor
of English; Dr. C.H. Moore,
head professor, poultry
science; Dr. W.L. Pharis,
head professor, educational
gypsy origin and consists oil administration; and Dr. R.D.
Whiteford, professor, anatomy
and histology.
expect to hold ourown against
them; I consider the opposing
teams evenly matched. There
will be no winner. This debate
will be strictly for exhibition
educational purposes."
A relatively new method of
debate will be used said Vickrey.
The first debater will
speak for seven minutes. One
of the opposing debaters will
then ask questions. "Debate
will follow the same procedure
throughout," added the
debate coach.
"These debaters have done
extensive research in this
area for the past year and
should provide a unique enlightenment
of our role in
Western Europe," said ACOIA
chairman Charley Majors,
"We hope this will become an
integral part of each year's
conference."
The announcement of the
debate rounds out the list of
speakers and events for the
ninth annual Conference. Heading
the list is Merrill Mueller,
NBC correspondent who will
deliver the keynote speech.
Along with Mueller will be
Lt. ColonelJohn Napier who
spoke at last year's conference,
Bruce W. Munn, chief of
United Press International's
United Nations bureau, Dr.
Richard Gardner, Columbia
University professor, and Dr.
Hillis Lory of the State Department.
dormitories.
Foy termed the policy
change "unavoidable."
"Income from room rentals
not only must pay all expenses
of operation and
maintenance but also covers
payments on building bonds
issued when Magnolia Dorms
were built," he said.
NO PENALTY NOW
It was emphasized that
there is no change in university
policy permitting male
students to live wherever
they choose, but those who
elect to live in Magnolia
Dormitories will be obligated
to remain through spring
quarter.
The current housing agreement
requires only one quarter's
residence. A student
may occupy a room there and
move out to ;a fraternity house
or private housing without
penalty at the end of any
quarter. Consequently, vacancies
plague these dorms
during winter and spring
quarters.
"Although we are forced
through economic necessity tc
make this policy change, we
do not feel that it is an unreasonable
one," stated Foy.
"Most parents of students I've
talked with want their sons to
live in university operated
dormitories, at least through
their freshman year.
This is understandable
since students there usually
earn better grades than their
male counterparts living off-campus,
indicating the excellence
of study conditions
in Magnolia Dormitories."
FACILITIES IMPROVED
It was pointed out further
that facilities have recently
been improved through air-conditioning
Noble and Magnolia
Halls and by painting all
rooms.
"As compared to dormitory
charges at other colleges,
room rental rates are most
reasonable: $60 per quarter
for rooms not air-conditioned
and $80 with air-conditioning
said Foy.
Price of meal tickets and
room rent will be unchanged
for next year.
Basically, the new housing
agreements will affect only
those students who make reservations
beginning fall or
winter quarter. They will be
obligated to remain in the
dorm through spring quarter.
Students entering in spring or
summer quarters will be obligated
for only one quarter.

ALLEN ROBERTS
Student
Killed
In Crash
By LEE DAVIS
An Auburn student died in
a two-car crash Friday night
that also caused the death of
a Mobile girl and injured
five other persons.
Allen Crumley Roberts, 23,
a senior in industrial management
from Atlanta, and Donna
Maria Campbell, 24, of Mobile,
were killed at 11:35 p.m.on

B Taiwan's Lily Likes More 'Make-Up'
By LINDA NEWTON
Editor's Note: This is the third part of a five part series
of articles on Auburn's foreign students in conjunction with
the Plainsman staff and the International Affairs Committee.
LILY SHEN
Lily Shen (Left) And Her Sister Discuss American
Make-up Problems. (Photo by Roger Hull)
"The American girls
are very pretty," proclaims
Lily Shen through a magical
oriental smile.
A graduate student from
Taiwan, Lily adds that
"When I came here that
was one of the things I
first noticed. They wear
more make-up than the Taiwanese
girls, but it looks
good."
Lily, a petite far-eastern
beauty herself, came here
about a year ago to do graduate
work in accounting. "I
flew to America via Alaska,
San Francisco, and finally
New York."
When asked how Auburn
compared with another school
she had attended, Lily says
that it is hard. "I have to
keep a 2.00 in graduate
school so I go to the library
every afternoon to study."
The things which she
finds more difficult than
anything are the reading and
writing. "I am slower than
any of the American students
and have difficulty with my
assignments. But one of my

After being graduated in
June, Lily wishes to accomplish
many things for herself.
"I hope to work here in the
U.S. for about a year. Then
I want to travel, maybe around
the world."
When asked how Taiwan
and Taiwanese differed from
the U.S. and her citizens,
she readily remarks that
there are not many differences.
"Living in the capital
of Taiwan is not unlike
living in an American city.
We get all the popular songs
and dances. Taiwan even
has its Top 10 Hits. But,"
she added, "the long hair
hasn't caught on yet."
Lily adds that the high
school set in Taiwan knows
all about the American movie
stars. She confesses, "When
I came over I knew a lot
about them too. That is one
reason America is not strange
for us. We know so much
about it before we come
over."
Social life in Taiwan
isn't such a drastic removal
from the American type, Lily
says. "On dates young
people often go in groups to
the movies, on picnics, or
to the beach. Only if acouple
is serious do they go out
by themselves," she says.
Girls in her home country
are more dependent on their
parents, Lily says. ."Here
girls take an interest in
politics and are very active
in many things. Women have
more freedom here. But in
Taiwan, girls are not interested
in politics and are not
as active."
But Lily emphasizes the
view that all people are
basically the same. The
foreign students here aren't
really different from the
American students, she says.
"Young people are young
people no matter what their
nationality."

year and number) represents
seven to eight per cent of the
U.S. total who will receive
their D.V.M. degrees this
year from 18 schools across
the nation. Though Auburn
has the highest combined enrollment
for all classes, it
ranks third in the country's

Pros, Cons Of New Method Viewed
"The pros andcons of computer registration have been
discussed by various committees at Auburn since 1959.
Serious consideration of thvi idea began with the acquisition
of equipment with sufficient capacity to handle the
task," said Assistant Registrar HomerFisher.
"Various plans used by other schools were studied
and rejected as Auburn officials soon realized that acceptance
of another university's registration process
would simultaneously require substantial changes in Auburn's
regulations," he said. "Thus while many ideas
were borrowed from other schools, the decision was
made to develop a registration program compa tible with
the related policies and procedures of Auburn University."

Let's Begin To Stop Student Deaths
Another Auburn student was killed
last Saturday on the highway between
Auburn and Columbus. We thought
only the usual thoughts about auto
safety. Too many editorials have been
poured from these old typewriters
asking people to drive with maturity,
to drive defensively, to be careful or
else face death.
General warnings remain unheeded.
Auburn leads the way-more than any
school we know of-in student traffic
deaths. We have reached a point of
distress; but not without some hope.
So we offer to the University, and
anyone else who might like to begin
something constructive, an initial
outline for reducing the traffic accidents.
(1) Make it mandatory for all fraternities
and sororities who hold out-of-
town formals to travel in chartered
buses to and from. Most groups have
buses but sometimes an inebriated
brother might try to go the route alone.
A compulsory bus rule would ease the
anxiety of those who are concerned
over their fellows; and, if nothing
else, it might mean something to the
sober victim who'l 1 have to share a
drunk's mistake.
(2) Place any student on probation
if he's caught on a driving-while-intoxicated
charge. Drinking is fun, and
thankfully, has its place in our lives.
But a few deaths attributed to alcohol
in the blood offset any good fellowship
effects of drink. Better patrolling
would increase an awareness of the
rule. Crack down. And if any
bon vivant happens to get caught the
second time, ask him to leave school.
Hard rules are necessary when common
sense rules of good conduct are warped
bv Dotential killers.
(3) Include in freshman orientation,
a brief explanation of the campus
traffic set-up, one-way streets, and
all the rules which one mustobey to be
a safe driver. This would include the
rule about students getting suspended
for two driving-while-intoxicated
charges.
And to these three recommendations
we will add that they are only listed
as an attempt to beat into a few people
brains what all editorial admonitions
and pleas (apparently) cannot: when
driving carelessly, particularly when
drinking, your chances for killing yourself
and someone else are mushroomed.
A crash here, a wrong turn there, a
VFW white cross by the side of the
road-all point to sad, tragic part of
the human experience.
How many could miss an early rendezvous
with death if they tried to
think ahead? The question is too big
for us to answer. Beyond our suggestions,
we can only grope.
Ot George Wallace, Presidents, And Tides
Word continues to circulate that
former Governor George C. Wallace
will be a third party candidate in the
next presidential election. His running
cannot be dismissed or laughed
down-Mrs. Wallace as a stand-in
candidate for governor was poohed
at. He's getting national attention;
George Romney has mentioned
Wallace's name. And the major parties
are giving careful thought to
Wallace's movement. His actions are
bringing those interested in state and
local politics into a baffled state of
mind.
What is Wallace trying to do? Surely
he realizes that barring some catas-trophy
he can't make it into the White
House. Is he trying to get the support
of a third party by showing that he can
cany a few states and "buy" his
power into one of the major parties?
Or is he really trying to "wake up
the people" to federal government
encroachment? Maybe he wants to
make it to Washington like Lester
made it to Atlanta.
If he does there are some things he
should know as a candidate for the
presidency, and a potential chief
executive.
First, Wallace must not expect
people in every state to act the way
the people in Alabama do, particularly
in those states he carried in 1964.
The political clime has changed now.
Conservatism is stronger, but Wallace
is not its sole spokesman. He might
be facing moderate opposition since
segregationists, and their philosophy
have failed in some states. Maryland
is a good example.
Second, he should realize that the
man who has always triumphed has
in some way represented the American
ideal. The President could not be a
sectionalist who would have the
world believe that Alabamians have
been turned under and are being saved
by only one man. A president must be
a "real live nephew" of his Uncle
Sam, as the Yankee Doodle Dandy
song goes. And where would Wallace
fit if asked to serve in a capacity of
leadership which required more patience,
less damning speeches, and
increasing tolerance?
Third, how many Southerners, who
agree with a great many of Wallace's
programs, who're conservative, and
who have a fierce sectional loyalty,
would surrender all that for one attempt
at reuniti ng the states under a
capable moderate candidate.
"There is a time in the affairs of
men," Shakespeare said once, "Which
taken at the flood leads on to fortune.
Omitted all the voyage of their lives
are bound in shallows and in miseries."
Wallace is too smart to sacrifice
all that he has done-and he has
been a constructive governor-in this
one foolish attempt. The press will
give him coverage; his associates
will continue to reflect his ego. And
George Wallace, who has been such
a success so far, will continue to
make his same dull speech, to try.
to perpetuate the same crude image
of his facile nature, and he'll probably
run for president to try for some
sort of political gold. But he cannot
see the tide.
One day, the chickens of too much
emotionalism, cross words and power
plays, will come home to George
Wallace. And history will show that
at the zenith of his career he decided
to remain nothing more than just a
politician, a vindictive label for a
man who could have re-written a
speech, changed an attitude, and
kept his life away from the shallows
that will surely come when the
Wallace tide runs out.
And one day it will.
The Liberal Image
Is Now A Myth
By Jerry Brown
There was a time when the tag "liberal"
- a s the national Democrats interpreted
it-cast a hopeful note in the hearts of young, progressive
people-it was the opposite of stuffy conservatism, a guidon
for humanity, and a principle of doing right in the 'face of
political threats.
But something has happened
to the connotation
since the Adam Clayton
Powell incident. John
McCormack, speaker of the
House of Representatives,
appointed his long-time
liberal friend Emmanuel
Celler (D-NY) chairman of
the committee to consider
Powell's case. Celler,
according to one syndicated
columnist, is in sore need
of the Brooklyn Negro vote,
and he has openly stated
that he sees no constitutional
reason for unseating the
swashbuckling Powell.
As insurance, McCormack
has appointed a liberal
Democratic majority on
Celler's committee, thus
showing great solid liberals,
who have superficially inspired
so many young Americans,
being as politically
expedient as Republican
John Grenier was when he
tried to ride into the Senate
on George Wallace's "Democratic"
coattails.
And then there's Robert
Kennedy. In the Manchester
book storm something of the
Kennedy mystique has been
broken: Manchester said
too much, with not enough
foundation, but he also
struck into the guts of the
Kennedy powerhold. Robert
Kennedy-who ran as a
liberal, bent on doing something
for clean government-has
been quiet about the
Powell case. His alliance
with the Harlem congressman
echoes in Powell's endorsement
of Kennedy when he
sought the New York Senate
seat: "Robert F. Kennedy
is my man, and he knows
it." Kennedy remains silent.
The Democrats are methodically
preparing themselves
for a sound defeat next
year, if the Republicans
place a solid, moderate
candidate on the ticket.
Already the campfires of
Kennedy and Johnson-with
smouldering philosophies
as far apart as Kipling's
East and West-are
dividing the Democratic
Party. Mix Kennedy's statements
on Viet Nam, Johnson's
bumbling of the tax-inflation
problem, and George
Wallace's Democratic splinter
group in the South-the
party which once stood for
labor, the common man, and
the South has begun to lose
its hold.
The National Liberal
Democratic Party, placing
high hopes on either Kennedy
or Johnson, may find that
the image of Johnson is too
motheaten to stand another
national race, and find the
vituberant picture of young
Bobby Kennedy will be somewhat
blurred if he's a grandfather
in '68.
The young who have
looked at the liberal men
in Washington-especially
the Democrats-as something
of ideals can now fit old
heroes into a picture of
common expedient politics.
The integrity of the men who
will keep Adam Powell in
the House must be questioned,
and so their basic worth
as public servants.
And the intellectual, brave
humanist Liberal Hero must
accept-withno little shame-his
place among the great
American myths.
Great Or Grump
Professors Get Grades
By Special Evaluation
By h\el Pulliam
What sort of image of professors did you
get when you first arrived at Auburn? Has
your "quest for knowledge" been satisfied?
As the unknowing freshman progresses to the all-knowing
senior, he unconsci&usly classes eachprofessor into different
categories according to motivation, character, respect, and so
forth.
lower than his own, points
only to their disregard for good
teaching.
The old English prof, the
one that pupils bet won't make
it through his lecture without
keeling over from malnutrition
and dysentery, has had
30 years of eloquence, elocution,
and rhetoric preached
to him at Oxford and Columbia.
Yet, he stutters, stammers,
and reaches no definite conclusion
of what the symbolism
of a poem means.
We are not without our good
images, either. Though hard
to admit, we admire and appreciate
(at the end of the
quarter) the slave driver who
whipped us into a frenzy of
study with good, clear-cut
lectures admonishing us to
keep up or lose out.
To merit an "A" in these,
the instructor must possess a
dynamic demand for attention
in his classes.
Unless the teacher can motivate
and inspire, the result
will be poor learning incentive.
Instead of forcing the
instructor's personality into
the background and searching
for questions that a first-rate
teacher will induce, the student
will magnify the inferior
professor's little idiosyncrasies.
These habits irritate the
too-far-gone apathetic student.
But, to the interested one,
the narrow-minded professor's
faults tend to keep him
amused, if for nothing else
than to keep from going to
dreamland.
Meanwhile, the instructor
stays in his own small scope,
dishing out facts as iif they
were the only thing that keeps
the world from being demolished.
As for images, the most
typical and well-known one is
that of the bore (or boar); the
statistical, high-brow intellectual
who preaches so
far above the students' heads
tlut his chain-smoking looks
like a halo, with clouds billowing
down from heaven.
His kind would rather fight
than switch-at the student's
expense.
Another is the contemptible,
grouchy grump who .insists
that he gave assignments for
study which actually belong
to another course he teaches
later in the day.
He is well-known for having
tests on Friday afternoons,
giving homework on weekends,
and for treating his pupils as
pawns for his torture chamber.
Hard tests never hurt anybody
he insists, and just because
his contemporaries'
grade scale is three times
Also, we have the image of
the handsome young professor
who lettered in two major
sports in college, was student
body president, and does not
have any vices.
In addition, he has a clear
idea of what he's teaching and
how to do it. He also remembers
his sometimes struggling
years through college and
gives the student every break
he can, as long as each re-oects
the other.
Stereotypes or not, the Auburn
student sees each professor
as an individual and
judges him as such. Whether
the instructor makes an effort
to communicate with the student
is just as important as
the student being a conscientious
listener in his class.
Many instructors fall into a
week-by-week, quarter-after-quarter
state of decay and
should be made more aware
that his impression is important
to the motivation of the
student. It should act as a
catalyst and stimulant, rather
than a depressant.

Brave Hew World...
Liberated Coed Grasps
Loneliness Of Freedom
By Barbara Thomas
With only 44 days left and counting,
thoughts of graduation begin to crowd my
mind.
To leave Auburn after four years of acquaintances, accomplishments,
and disappointments won't be easy, but the vacant
feeling will hopefully be filled by long-awaited freedom.
To have her own apartment,
decorated just as her individuality
would have it and to
be free of dorm life restrictions
has long been the dream
of many suppressed coeds,
myself included.
However, patterns have been
formed that will not quickly
be forgotten, even such as
living in that cell-like dorm
room, impervious to privacy
and invaded at all hours by
those "looking for a fourth"
or "just wanting to talk."
The dining hall conversations
and hamburgers at
Jack's will soon be replaced
by a hurried lunch in a downtown
drugstore or cooking for
one in an apartment kitchenette.
The warm, comfortable feeling
of coming back to your
own room, knowing that someone
is always next door and
willing to talk will be taken
over by returning to a dark
and empty apartment that is
now your private world.
You're no longer a part of a
spirited student body or a
select little group-you're a
stranger in a big city and left
to your own devices.
People, I've discovered, in
the "outside world" are different,
too. They don't care
whether you wear Villagers or
gold chains-they just want to
see what you can do-whether
you can put to use all that
you've absorbed throughout
four years of sleeping in
class. Once away from the
conforming atmosphere of
college, you can see people
as they really are and not as
copies all from the same mold.
Of course, the obvious advantages
of being on your own
are still there. Gone forever
are exams, fire drills, convocations,
and deferred permissions
that every self-respecting coed
has learned to loathe.
The once-scatterbrained
coed must now become a dependable
woman, serious about
her career and intent on being
independent.
No more three month vacations
during the summer, no
more taking off to Lord-knows-where
whenever the feeling
strikes you. With freedom
comes the responsibility and
the loneliness of realizing
that you've grown up.
The Supreme Sacrifice...
Law Of Averages
Spelled Tragic Deaths
Byiyn Scarbrough
The tragic death of America's first three
Apollo astronauts is mourned by the nation.
tie fiery holocaust which engulfed the Apollo moonship during
a launch rehearsal last Friday took the lives of Virgil (Gus)
Grissom, Edward White, and Roger Chaffee. They died as they
had lived-in service and devotion to the country.
Grissom, who was to have
commanded the first Apollo
flight, was a veteran from the
original group of seven American
astronauts. He rode aloft
in this country's second flight
into space and piloted the
first manned three-orbital
Gemini flight.
White, the senior pilot for
the ill-fated shot, had the
honor of undertaking the first
American space walk, a thrilling
21-minute venture during
the Gemini 4 flight.
For Chaffee, a slender
dark-haired rookie, it would
have been his first trip into
space. He was to have been
systems commander for the
initial Apollo shot.
As far as is known, they
were the first to die while
actively engaged in the space
program. Rumors of deaths in
the Russian program are many
and varied. They include an
abondoned cosmonaut whose
SOS call wasmonitored in Italy
and a lady pilot who is presently
doomed to an eternal
flight through the universe.
Although some of these reports
may be true, there is no
undeniable proof of Russian
fatalities.
It has been nine years
since the first Sputnik wasput
in orbit and space exploration
was started. Since that time
many men have rocketed from
earth, performed experiments,
and returned safely. We are
fortunate that the program went
this long before experiencing
its first fatalities.
Most people realized that
someday space pilots would
die. It was an eventuality
which project officials and
astronauts alike had accepted
since the quest for space began.
It is only ironic that the
first United States fliers to die
in man's attempt to conquer
space would do so on the
ground.
First reports said that the
pilots apparently died instantly
when an electrical
spark caused the > oxygen system
to explode. Other reports
stated that they may have
suffocated to death prior to
the flash fire. A later official
statement told of a report from
one of the three astronauts
that fire was sighted in the
craft shortly before the explosion.
It may be possible that the
deaths could have been avoided.
The test had been delayed
during the day due to difficulties
with the ship's oxygen
and communications systems.
After a two-hour hold the astronauts
entered the craft for
A rocket-propelled launch escape
tower was mounted on the
Apollo, but was incapable of
activation during Friday's test.

Students Will
Wrongly Sutter
For New Meters
By lee Sentell
The reasoning behind the
city's move to line several
streets bordering the campus
with parking meters is both
pathetic and ridiculous.
City fathers say that meters
must go up on West Mag,
South College and Wright in
[order to provide
additional
customer
parking for the
business district.
They find
the university
a convenient
scapegoat for
the marked
decline in
business volume of the downtown
area, because students
can park indefinitely in these
unmetered places.
A quick survey revealed not
a lack of parking, but a lack
of parkers. They (whichever
customers the city is talking
about) simply don't utilize the
available space. Look around.
Downtown's only paidparking
lot is usually empty and seldom
used by anyone but students;
the area on North College
across from The Cub is
generally bare; and the dirt
lot below the War Eagle
Theatre never holds any non-student
cars even on Saturdays.
It's simply too far to
walk.
Student Senator Steve
Bowden made an excellent
point when he asked, "Why
does the city want us to move?
We are the shoppers those
merchants are so concerned
about."
Let's face it, city fathers.
Your problem isn't a lack of
downtown parking; it's a lack
of downtown. It ain't your
packaging; it's your product.
There's just not enough of it.
Compare downtown with
Glendean and Midway Plaza.
What've you got? Afew clothing
stores that cater mainly
to students, some restaurants,
a couple of drug stores and
two movies. They have huge,
new stores with spacious,
unmetered puking areas.It's
sometimes just not worth
fighting traffic when one can
zoom out the highway and
have the run of a shopping
center.
But still your meters will
go up and our dimes will go in
'em. There's nothing you can
do. We also need the space.
Students can't drive two miles
to another university with
free parking. Your customers
can drive two miles to shop,
they do and will continue to
do so.
We know about your business
problems because we
shop here, too. So don't blame
us, hell, we've got problems
of our own.
If it could have been activated
it would probably have been
of little use because it was
intended to yank the craft
from an exploding rocket, not
to solve a problem in the
craft itself.
Normal procedure in case of
fire in the cabin would be for
the pilots to throw open the
hatches, run along an access
arm to a tower flanking the
rocket, and take an elevator
to the ground. According to
space officials, the fire struck
so swiftly and with such intensity
that the astronauts had
no time.
Tte disaster is over and the
astronauts can not be brought
back. Their death is a tremendous
loss to the space program
and to the nation. Their contribution
and dedication should
be remembered. Their sacrifice
and courage should be
praised.
But this does not mark the
time for a cutback in the program
or a lessening of the
drive that has led man to his
present position on the threshold
of space.
Lessons can be learned
from mistakes. The overall
space project must be reevaluated
and necessary
corrections to decrease the
possibility of future deaths
must be made.
Some may ask why. Chaffee
himself summed it up just one
short month before his death.
"It's a new phase of exploration,"
he said. "It's
something new that must be
conquered."

Students View Dating, Parking Meters
New Parking Meiers
Ridiculed By Student
Editor, the Plainsman:
This letter presents one
view of the results of putting
parking meters on Magnolia
Avenue and College Street.
I'd like to see a letter next
week presenting the other
side.
The roving reporter visits
the oracle today. "Hello Mr.
Barnaclus, I'm the roving
reporter. What do you foresee?"
"I have a vision of a
great road lined on both sides
by a fence. No, the vision
is clearing. They're not
fenceposts; they're parking
meters. Parking meters everywhere.
And for every parking
meter, I see a car. And on
many cars, I see a yellow
card. The cards read: 'overtime
parking.'
"Now I see little red
flags. They read: 'expired.'
A dark figure approaches.
It is a policewoman. She
walks up and down marking
tires and writing tickets.
"In the distance, I hear a
bell. Here come the students
hurrying to make it before
the time in the meter runs
out. Those who make it now
face another problem. 'Two
hour limit, means cars must
be moved after two hours;
but once they leave their
parking spaces, they can't
find another one. Not in ten
minutes, anyway. Too bad
they couldn't plan their
schedules around the parking
regulations.
"The vision is almost
gone, but I see one more
thing. A Brinks truck cruises
slowly down the street as a
man empties the meters of
their nickels and dimes."

Donahue Criticized
On Manchester Opinion
Editor, the Plainsman:
Miss Donahue's recent
column on the Manchester
book deserves some comment.
I can't disagree specifically
with her impression of the
book's contents because I
haven't read it and I have
no intention of doing so.
Suffice it to say that most of
the conclusions of the best
reviewers seem opposed to
those of Miss Donahue.
I haven't read the book
because I believe that a book
which purports to be a definitive
document on one of
the most important events of
the 20th century should be
as objective and factual as
possible.
To begin with, Mr. Manchester
is said to have
"adored" President Kennedy.
Secondly, anyone who reads
the papers knows that the
manuscript of this book was
approved by the Kennedy
family, deletions were made
by Mrs. Kennedy, and the
bulk of the material came
from persons in the Kennedy
circle.
Furthermore, other authors
who expressed a desire to
write on the subject were
told by Mrs. Kennedy's
office that the associates
and family of the late President
had agreed to give interviews
to no one but Mr.
Manchester. That such an
important book should be
censored by one of the most
powerful families in the
nation is not only disgraceful,
it is dangerous.
Miss Donahue reports that
the book "arouses emotion
as if one were centrally in-involved
in the tragedy."Like
most other Americans, 1
expressed strong emotional
feelings at the time of the
assassination. But that was
over three years ago. Due
to the controversy still surrounding
the incident, I feel
we need more facts and less
emotion.

Editor, the Plainsman:
Mr. Editor, I'm writing you
about a matter that concerns
my responsibilities towards
my office as secretary of the
Auburn Pre-Veterinary Medical
Association.
Acting as secretary, I
have the responsibility,
among my other duties, of
notifying the members, who
are mostly in Pre-Vet Medicine,
and I must not forget
the interested students who
in the past have enjoyed our
varied programs. I send
letters of announcement to
our members and those whom
we have knowledge of their
interest to inform them of
our meetings (i.e., time,
place, date, theme, speaker
and means of transportation.)
Mr. Editor, as you should
see, each of these letters is
very important to the persons
notified. However, there are
those who are interested and
yet unknown by our Club.
Therefore, like other clubs,
the Pre-Vet Club depends
upon the Plainsman as a
means of resourceful communication
to the unaware
students.
Having the Plainsman
print our announcements,
enables my Club to inform
those interested, members"
and non-members; therefore,

can say from personal experience,
that with the cooperation
from the Plainsman,
my Club's attendance has
been increased in some degree.
However, Mr. Editor, my
Club has not had the cooperation
of the Plainsman. For the
the consecutive time, my
Club's announcement, which
has been presented to the
proper individual before the
deadline by one of your own
staff, has failed to beprinted.
Why is this so, Mr. Editor?
I can not understand why our
announcements have not been
printed, because I have always
considered the Plainsman
as the means by which
the faculty, clubs and other
organizations and the students
communicate to those
"interested and concerned,"
if you please.
Am I wrong to consider
this of the Plainsman, Mr.
Editor? If not, can I be confident
that my Club's next
announcement will be printed?
I hope so. I will personally
appreciate your consideration
in solving our problem of
Club Announcements.

International House
favored By Student
Editor, the Plainsman:
The foreign student now
in the U.S. is a living indivi-ual
contribution of his country
to the broader picture of
understanding and peace
among nations.
We would like to believe
that the students now at
Auburn have that sense of
direction that they are serving
the ideas of brotherhood.
With educational training
and intellectual equipment
the foreign student gives
something to himself and to
America by the mere fact of
his presence here. While in
this country he meets and
comes to know Americans,
who, in turn, come to know
him and learn something of
his country and its people.
The student enriches his
own experience, education
and personality, and adds to
the cultural, artistic and
scientific wealth of his own
nation.
After knowing America,
the foreign student sheds his
previous notions of his country,
reduces his suspicions
and increases his admirations
and respect for the institutions.
In turn, his American
friends will come to respect
his country and institutions.
This then is the sensitive
role the foreign student plays
in the broad framework of
brotherhood and peace in
this world. An irresponsible
foreigner can cause havoc
to the prestige of his motherland.
A dedicated scholar is
an invaluable partner to the
cause.
Invaluable partnership of
dedicated scholars to the
cause of brotherhood and
peace: This, I believe, is
the strength of an International
House-fostering those partnerships
among Americans
and foreign students from
many different countries.
These partnerships can be
strengthened throughout the
year by planned programs,
informal gatherings, and just
day-to-day living and sharing
of his ideas in the friendly
atmosphere of an International
House.
Varieties of programs can
be arranged such as well
known speakers, discussion
groups, trips, home hospitality
and seminars. Even during
the summer the placement
service of the House can
find jobs for the foreign students.
U.S. is in the position of
world leadership, the Americans
as its citizens must
broaden their knowledge of
the world and of other people.
Foreign students on the campus
and in the community
can help bring the world to
the shores of , this i cojuntry,
and give American students-important
insights into their
cultural attitudes and political
outlooks.
But more important, these
same foreign students can
interpret the U.S. to their
countries and to other countries
as well. The world
thirsts for the knowledge
about the whole world and
the students from different
countries living together can
interpret it much better.
The character of the
foreign student's experience
here as a student is all important
and will determine
how good these students
will be true interpreters of
the U.S. when they get home.
In conclusion, I believe
that a trained mind with an
International outlook and
with a sympathetic understanding
of the other countries
is one of the most
precious assets in the world
today. We shall, hopefully,
be proud of a future International
House here and proud
to be in partnership with the
educational institution like
Auburn University, of this
great state and with the
dedicated scholars who are
the future.

An open letter to Donald
Elking: 9 AY:
I love the game of football.
But unfortunately football-except
that played in vacant
lots and dead-end streets and
school yards by a gang of
runny-nosed, patched-kneed
school boys-is no longer a
game.
Why? You said it Donald,
the name of the game is win,
win, win: Just ask a few football
crazed alumni and students
if you doubt it. And surely you
know a few football crazed
alumni and students, Donald.
They're easily recognized
by the things they say. Things
like, "College football of today
is,, a, bardnosed business^
that requires football victories
rather than moral victories."
And things like, "Auburn
alumni should not rest until
they get the type of football
they deserve."
And when their team loses
they snort and rant and rave
and fuss and fume. And cuss a
coach who's given the best
years of his life to leading a
school to heights never before
attained.
And they call the coach in
the middle of the night to
bitch-providing they can get
his unlisted telephone number
which is unlisted because he
doesn't especially like to get
their calls in the middle of the
night.
And they hate Alabama with
a purple passion which doesn't
bother a goodly number of Alabama
students and alumni because
they don't give a damn
about Auburn anyway.
And they forget that football
is supposedly sport, that it is
supposed to be for enjoyment
just like hop scotch, horseshoe
pitching, mumbly peg and
marbles. They forget that regardless
of who the scoreboard
proclaims as victor on
an autumn afternoon the World
will still go on, the sun will
still rise in the East and set
in the West, children will still
laugh and ninth graders will
still fall in love.
Yes Donald, I too like to
win. I'd like to win the war
in Viet Nam. I'd like to win
the war on hunger that three-fourths
of the World fights
each day. I'd like to win a
better way of life for the
fellow who is willing to help
himself but finds it hard because
he's black.
And believe it or not, I'd
dearly love to win the Auburn-
Alabama football game.
But not above all else.

Strong Georgia Freshmen
Scuttle Baby Tigers,93-74
A determined effort by
Auburn's freshman basketball
team fell short Saturday
afternoon.
"We really proved we were
a basketball team today,"
said Auburn's
coach L arry
Chapman after
Georgia
beat Auburn
93-74. "We
played well
as a unit
and gave a
tough Georgia
team a
good game."
Georgia coach Pat Stevens,
WITTISH
By RICHARD WITTISH
whose players won their
ninth game against one loss,
called Auburn "as fine a
team as we've played this
year, and this includes
Georgia Tech and Tennessee."
Georgia jumped off to an
early lead and held it until
Auburn's center Bill Alexander
hit a jump shot to send
the Tigers ahead, 24-23, with
seven minutes remaining in
the first half.
Scoring by Ronnie Jackson,
Bob Wills, and Barry Timmer-man
kept Auburn out in front,
and the half ended with
Auburn on top, 36-34.

Grid, Cage Star Tim Christian
Move It On Over, Ron Widby;
Double- Trouble Tim Is Coming
Is there another Ron
Widby in the SEC? Well,
not yet, but give sophomore
Tim Christian two
years and we'll see.
Widoy, a nine-letterman
at Tennessee has starred in
football, basketball, and
baseball for the Vols.
Two years ago, Tim to
coin a cliche, was "the
most sought-after athlete"
in Georgia when he graduated
from Newton County
High in
Covipgton.
"I guess
the big reason
1 came
to Auburn
was because
of
the coaching
staff,"
Tim said.
PfJLLIAM "I really
think a lot of coach (Buck)
Bradberry."
Bradberry, now in the
Alumni department, saw
Christian play as a tenth
grader. Basketball coach
Bill Lynn also made several
trips to see Tim and must
have done a good job.
TIM'S CHOICE
"Coach Lynn told me that
it was my choice, my decision,"
Tim said, "Andthere
was no pressure put onme."
Before Tim was thinking
about college, he was busy
making all-star teams in
three sports. He was Ail-

State in football, basketball,
and baseball.
A Prep-All American basketball
player, Tim was
also listed among the top
ten players in the nation
in two magazines.
Newton County was undefeated
in 88 home games
during Tim's high school
career. They lost only one
road game in Tim's last
two years.
In the spring of 1965. Tim
put his name to an Auburn
grant-in-aid, one that has
to be unique in Auburn history.
According to Lynn, it
was the first Auburn schol-laiship
that specifically
designates that an athlete,
had the choice to play football,
basketball, or even
baseball.
REGULAR GRANT
The regular grant does
not specify that an athlete
can participate in two
The decision rests in the
hands of the coaches. They
can release him to play
another sport but they are
not required to do so.
"You have to sign a
football scholarship to play
any other sport," Christian
explained. "It doesn't work
the other way around."
Christian so far hasn't
made a choice. He has
played both football and
basketball.

along," Christian said.
But will he continue to
play both sports? " I really
can't answer that," Tim
replied. I'll play football
next year for sure. For that
matter, I might get injured
and not be able to play
either one, but I'll have to
see how everything works
out."
Tim summed up, "If
nothing happens, I still
plan to continue playing
both sports for the next
two years."
Tim was just about ready
to make a decision last
year during spring training.
At quarterback, as Christian
said, "Things were
looking bad" and head
coach Ralph Jordan was
looking closely, trying to
Traveling around the
SEC announcing basketball
games for more than 15
years, one would figure
that Larry Munson might
be a little proficient at
preseason predictions.
But according to Munson,
the voice of the Georgia
Bulldogs, and color man for
the Atlanta Brave Baseball
Network, this isn't necessarily
true.
"The SEC has been a
surprise this
year to just
about everyone,"
said
Munson, who
was in town
last Saturday
with the
'Dogs.
"Take your
own team,"
GOUEDY he said.
"Most people expected Auburn
to really be down after
losing (Lee) DeFore, last
year's leading scorer. But
this team has shaped up to
be pretty tough.
"All over the league i t 's

find someone to make the
Tigers an offensive threat.
LADY LUCK
As luck would have it,
an injury depleted the
the split end supply, and
Jordan asked him after
practice if he would try that
position for awhile. Tim
agreed, and probably played
more this past football
season than he would have
at quarterback, as he won a
starting role toward the end
of the year.
Tim said he has discussed
both sports with
both coaches, andthey have
let him make up his own
mind, with no pressure from
either.

"In spite of being run over,

Engineers
Schedule
Own Week
Auburn coeds will have
a chance at a new title,
Miss Auburn Engineer, in
preparation for the annual
Engineer's Week, beginning
Feb. 20 at the Union Building.
The main purpose in
Engineer's Week is to enable
instructors and students of
engineering to show, through
projects, . the accomplishments
concerning engineering
developments at Auburn.
The first Miss Auburn
Engineer will be chosen
from 14 girls nominated by
organizations within the
School of Engineering, said
John Essing, president of
the Engineer's Council
which sponsors Engineer's
Week.
The other students elected
to office with Essing at the
end of Fall Quarter were:
George Jones, vice-president;
Pete Melton, treasurer; Klaus
Dannenberg, secretary; Ray
Dawson, corresponding secretary.

two Auburn coeds, it helps.
Dina Mayfieid a junior
in elementary education,
and Sharon Walsh, a junior
in secondary education,
are the only two girls on
the Auburn University Rifle
Team and they love it.
The girls are being trained
for the Alabama Invitational
Tournament, scheduled for
Feb. 18 at Florence College
in Florence, Ala.
Dina said they love working
with the boys on the team.
"They kinda take us under
their wings and try to help
us. If, by any chance, we get
a bull's eye orsomething, they
make it sound like we shot
around 300orsomething great
like that."
The girls said that they are
practicing very hard to get
ready for the tournament. "We
usually practice two hours a
day, four times a week,"
Sharon said.
"The boys are very encouraging
about how well
we've progressed. We've gone
from around 125 the first time
we shot to about 220 now,"
Dina said.
This year Dina and Sharon
will be shooting against girls
from the University of Alabama
andJacksonville State University.
Dina said they're pretty

excited about their chances
this year because last year's
year's winner shot 220.
"We look beautiful in our
sweatshirts, blue jeans, and
combat boots," Dina said
sarcastically. "When we're
shooting, we have to wear
those awful rifle jackets,
too. You don't feel very feminine
but on something like
this, you're not supposed to.
We forget about being girls
and everybody else does too."
Dina said that although
they're marvelously outnumbered,
she hasn't dated
any of the boys on the team.
"All the boys are shorter
than I am," said the 5'8"
brunette.
Sharon said they became
interested in the sport last
quarter when they began to
visit the pistol team's practice
sessions. "That's where
we met Chris Rodatz, an Auburn
University junior from
Mountain Brook, Ala. He talked
us into joining the rifle team,"
she said.
Dina said the girls have
had some pretty memorable
experiences while on the rifle
team. "Last time we shot,
Sgt. Smith, one of the rifle
team coaches, bet us we
couldn't break 150. When we
shot over 200, he had to pay
off the cfebt."

Regional workshops for key
personnel in vocational rehabi-bilitation
from six southern
states will begin at Aubum
this spring.
Workshops will be financed
through grants totaling $76
438 from the Vocational Re
habilitation Administration of
Health, Education and Welfare.
Announcement of the approval
of the awards to the
School of Education was made
here this week by Dr. Ben T.
Lanham Jr., Vice President
for Research.
The funds will support two
projects, both dealing with
workshop administration. One
will focus major attention on
evaluator trainees and the other
will emphasize workshop and/
or facilities managers. Director
of both projects will be Dr.
James W. Selman, assistant
professor of vocational, technical,
and practical arts education.
The rapidly expanding field
of vocational rehabilitation and
a need for professional development
were cited by Dr. R.W.
Montgomery, department head,
as the reasons for the development
of the new programs here.
The present grants are for
the fiscal year ending Aug. 31
but, according to Dr. Mont
gomery and Dr. Selman, the
program is projected on
five-year basis and will be
continued as funds are avail
able.
The program will involve
two institutes each quarter
and will include classroon
study as well as on the jol
supervision in the field, ac
cording to Dr. Selman. Participants
from Alabama, Georgia
Florida, Mississippi, Tenn
essee and South Carolina wil
be selected by state rehabili
tation agencies and other simi
lar agencies.
Attendance will be for one
full quarter with credit offeree
the 12 participants in eacl
institute, according to Dr
Selman.
Assisting Dr. Selman will
be two additional staff members
who are yet to be appointed,
as well as other Uhi
versity faculty. Additional pro
fessional training will be pro
vided through regional specia
lists and consultants fron
various areas of rehabilitatioi
work who will be brought ir
during each quarter.
Last year, thousands
ol lawyers, bankers,
accountants, engineers,
doctors and businessmen
went back to college.
And not just for the
football games.
We'd like to clear up what appears to be a
misunderstanding. It is somewhat popular
on campus to decry a business career on
the grounds that you stop learning once
you start working for Cliche Nuts & Bolts.
That idea is groundless.
We can't speak for Cliche, but we can
for ourselves—Western Electric, the manufacturing-
and supply unit of the Bell System.
6 out of 10 college graduates who have
joined us over the past 10 years, for example,
have continued their higher education.
How're these for openers:
W.E.'s Tuition Refund Plan lets employees
pursue degrees while working
for us. Over 6 thousand have attended
schools in 41 states under
this plan. We refund more than $1
million in tuition costs to employees
a year.
To name another program: advanced
engineering study, under the direction
of Lehigh University, is con-jcted
at our Engineering Research
Center in Princeton, N. J. Selected
employees are sent there from all
over the country for a year's concentrated
study leading to a master's
degree.
You get the idea. We're for more learning
in our business. After all, Western
Electric doesn't make buggy whips. We
make advanced communications equipment.
And the Bell telephone network will
need even more sophisticated devices by
the time your fifth reunion rolls around.
The state of the art, never static, is where
the action is.
At Western Electric, what's happening
is the excitement and satisfaction of continued
doing and learning. If this happens
to appeal to you, no matter what degree
you're aiming for, check us out. And grab
a piece of the action. ® Western Electric

12-THE PLAINSMAN
Engineers Teaching
Via Long Distance
Th-.d.,, Febcim, 2,1967 L| J T L E M A ( s | QN CAMPUS
The instructor drew a par
tially completed diagram, and
asked one of the 25 students
to complete it. The class
watched and listened as the
instructor corrected the student's
mistakes.
Simple? Not if the students
are in Birmingham and the
instructor is 125 miles away
on the Auburn campus.
This amazing bit of educational
wizardry is part of a
unique program beingconducted
by the Engineering Extension
Service here, in cooperation
with United States Steel in
Fairfield.
This particular class is a
physical metallurgy short
course and the students are
supervisory and technical
management staff members of
USS. This is not unusual, but
the procedure used in this
course may revolutionize the
remote teaching system.
KEY TO SYSTEM
Key to the system is the
Victor Electrowriter, which
transmits images drawn or
written on it to a second unit,
which projects the image onto
a movie screen.
This transmission is made by
telephone lines, which also
transmit the voices.
According to John L. Cain,
director of Engineering Extension,
this system is similar
to but much less expensive
than the closed circuit television
often used in remote
teaching.
Unlike broadcast television,
this system allows two-way
communication, giving the student
an opportunity to ask
questions or answer those of
the instructor, as well as
draw at the same time, as in
the diagram mentioned earlier.
DISADVANTAGE
The only disadvantage is
that the students and instructor
cannot see each other.
The instructor, Dr. Wartan
A. Jemian, professor of mechanical
engineering, visited
HIS class in Birmingham for
its first meeting. "Since the
class and I know each other
now, not being able to see
each other is no longer a real
problem," he said.
' The only difficulty I have
is that I cannot tell by the
faces of the students if my
point is clear. I now have to
ask," he added.
Cain said that if this program
were not as it is, it
would probably be necessary
for the instructor to travel to
Birmingham for each of the
30 class meetings, requiring
much time and expense in
traveling.
Plans are now underway for
other extension classes to be
taught in this way, including
not only non-credit short
courses such as this, but regular
credit courses.
"There is a good possibility,"
said Cain, "that this
system may be expanded in a
few years to include teaching
basic engineering courses to
junior college classes at the
same time they are being
taught at Auburn."
"We are also investigating
the possibility of using this
method to allow certain technical
and supervisory students
to earn credit for past-graduate
degrees," Cain said.
