Student Senate sends
budget back to board
Allocations Board to reconsider
Glomerata, concerts sections
By BRUCE GILLILAND
The Student Senate voted unanimously Monday night
to send the 1969-70 Student Activity Fee allocations
back to the Allocations Board for further consideration
The Senate acted at the request of Student Govern
ment Association Pres.
Ginger Von Hooser, 1969-70 JNiss Auburn
Ginger Van Hooser, 1969-70 Miss Aubum, almost be­came
a University of Alabama student, although she
wanted to attend Auburn. After two sets of entrance ap­plications
produced no reply from the Registrar's Office,
she insured the third set and was later accepted without
any trouble.
See page 12 for the story on how she "spiced it up
with a little Ginger" and gained her greatest achieve­ment-

David Hill. The two main
areas Hill asked studied
further were the Glomerata
and the Concerts Commit­tee.
"I voted for the bud­get,
but since then, I have
had grave doubts about these
two items," said Hill.
Hill pointed out that the
Glomerata was allocated 19
per cent of the new budget, a
two per cent increase over
last year. He also criticized
the fact that $25,250 had been
committed to concert groups
before the Allocations Board
met.
The overall value of the
Glomerata in relation to the
rest of the student activities
was questioned by Hill. He
asked if the yearbook was
worth the money spent on it
when other student projects
lacked adequate funds. Hill
suggested that students pay
50 cents to $1 yearly to off­set
the cost of the Glomerata.
If the Glomerata budget
were to be cut, money might
go to other groups which were
turned down last week by the
Allocations Board. The Con­cerned
Art Students and The
Auburn Engineer were two or­ganizations
refused funds.
The main criticism of the
Concerts Committee alloca­tion
was that contracts had
been signed with several
groups before the funds were
approved. The Allocations

Allocations Board to reconsider budget
Board then had no choice but
to approve the money or can­cel
the contracts. Dean Kath­arine
Cater, chairman of the
Concert Committee, had stated
earlier that cancelling con­tracts
would give Auburn a
bad reputation with the book­ing
agents, according to Hill.
Hill also pointed out that
the events are poorly attend­ed
by students. At the recent
concert by the Kansas City
Philharmonic orchestra, the
faculty outnumbered the stu­dents,
he said. He proposed
that the student government
match the faculty on a dollar
for dollar basis to finance the
concert series. The faculty
presently will pay $2,000 of
the $25,000 budget for next
year.
Hill emphasized that other
student services were cut in
preparation of the budget. He
cited the debate team as an
example. The debate team had
been forced to stop some of
its activities due to a lack of
funds, according to Hill.'' This

also received a smaller per­centage
for the coming year.
Two and one half per cent
of the budget was allocated
for student recreation in the
Coliseum and auxiliary gym.
This is a new item in the bud­get.
One per cent is approxi­mately
$2,700, based on pro­jected
figures for the coming

Dr. H. Floyd Vallery, Allo­cations

that he will call another meet­ing

members want one. "I feel
that David will ask for a meet­ing

attributed to a decrease in
number of hours required to

able to graduate one or two
quarters ahead of schedule,
according to Tom Stallworth,

Another factor in the in­creasing
number of upper-classmen
is the limiting of
incoming freshmen and the
increase in the number of
junior college transfers, ac­cording
to Stallworth.

School problems not over
By BRUCE GILLILAND
The need for a strong,
continued commitment by
young people to building a
better University and the ed­ucational
crisis in the state
were the main topics of a
speech by Gov. Albert P.
Brewer during Governor's
Day ceremonies here Thursday.
The speech, given at an
Honors Convocation in the
Coliseum, climaxed the day's
activities which included a
luncheon for the visitipg dig­nitaries
and a review of the
ROTC cadets.
"We share a common bond
of concern about our society
and its future," said Gov.
Brewer. "And from listening
to you and other young peo­ple
in today's Alabama, I am
convinced we share a common
bond of commitment toward
building a better world, a bet­ter
state, a better University."
The Governor emphasized
the need for awareness about
today's problems and to make
known the concern about these
problems. "You are most con­cerned
about . this matter of
young people having a voice
in the shaping of our world of
tomorrow. Well, so am I," he
said. "Leaders in government
are hearing you loud and clear
and responding to your con­cern.
You may rest assured
that your hopes for a better
world are being heard by your
Governor and that he shares
your concern and hope."
Gov. Brewer cautioned,
however, the need for modera­tion
by students. ;"The last
thing a shaken society needs
is more shaking. ; The last
thing a noisy, •turbaleaEeont
mumly^eedT"Ts*^616W-and
turbulence. Even the most
far-out students have some­thing
to say that may be worth
listening to, if they would
only lower the volume so we
can hear the message," he
said quoting Father Hesburg
of Notre Dame. "I am confi­dent
you will voice your con­cern
and your commitment with
patience, understanding, com­passion
and orderly thought."
The problems of education
are not over and there is much
work to be done, according to
Gov. Brewer. "We face a con­tinuing
crisis in education, a
place where we have been
many times before. We have
dealt with our educational
problems on a crisis basis
for too long. Unless we modern­ize,
we'll one day suffocate
under the weight of crisis,"
he said.
"The job is far from over,

" Willjiotin themselves
insure a quality education for
Alabama's young people. On
the contrary, our task is really
just beginning. It now remains
for all of us in government,
education and the public to
work together to build some­thing
better," he said.
Gove ma Brewer also spoke
briefly at the luncheon attend­ed
by University administra­tors,
faculty, students and
government and legislative
officials. He praised Pres.
Harry M. Philpott "s efforts

'Sf&2£" ''*""' ***
As the golden rays of sunset fall across the campus,
the 1968-69 school year draws to a close, marking the
subtle beginnings of student awareness.
Disagreements between students and administrators
reached new heights as a group of students and faculty
filed suit to have Pres. Harry M. Philpott's speaker ban
on Yale Chaplain William Sloan Coffin overturned. The
court ruled against Philpott touching off continuing de­bate
on the power of the University president.
A Free University offering courses from the Universal
Negro to Conversational Portuguese was established by
students to complement the academic curriculum.
Auburn gained a skyline as Haley Center and the Mem­orial
Coliseum near completion. Students witnessed the
Auburn cagers battle LSU and Pistol Pete for the first
game in the Coliseum. In the wake of the Coliseum com­pletion,
Alumni Gym was demolished and the Board of
Trustees authorized a study of the possibility of enlarg­ing
Cliff Hare Stadium.
The Entertainment Committee brought such entertainers
to campus as the Sam and Dave Revue, the Letter men
and Jose Feliciano.
Coeds granted themselves additional freedoms with
dress rule alterations and an experimental no-curfew
dorm, scheduled to open this summer. Indications are
that this trend will continue, for AWS Legislative Coun­cil
approved later curfews for all coeds next year.
The first Festival of the Arts was presented in spring
to enhance the cultural aspects of the University. Plagued
by collapsing facilities, the Drama Department still man­aged
to produce such plays a s " J.B.," "My Sweet Charlie,"
and "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to The For­um."
A group of "concerned" students worked to up­grade
facilities in the School of Architecture and The Fine
Arts.
A Public Affairs Seminar Board was organized to allo­cate
funds to academic departments and organizations to
bring speakers to campus. After approving such speakers
as state Sen. Tom Radney and Baroness Von Trapp, the
Seminar Board became involved in the Coffin dispute and
has tentatively been disbanded.
Under the chairmanship of Mike Watson, the Auburn
Conference on International Affairs presented a seminar
on the urban crisis. Featuring such speakers as Sen.
Abraham Ribicoff, James Kilpatrick and John Dean,
ACOIA was only sparsely attended.
Auburn's compulsory basic ROTC program drew fire
from many sides.
A committee appointed by President Philpott studied
the ROTC program, and after extended debate.recommend-ed,
with approval from the University Senate, that a vol­untary
program be instituted. This proposal is awaiting
approval or rejection by President Philpott and the
Board of Trustees. The Air Force ROTC program went
coed enlisting its first women officer candidates.
Campus drives stopped short of their goals as partici­pation
dragged. For the second consecutive year, Kappa
Alpha Theta won the Fund Drive with a contribution of
S1662. The Spring Blood Drive collected 2,336 pints for
use in local hospitals.
In athletics, the Tigers topped off the regular 6-4 grid­iron
season with a 34-10 victory over Arizona in the Sun
Bowl. With the Coliseum as a new den, Auburn's cagers
posted a 15-10 record with wins over SEC giants Tennes­see
and Florida, but lost heartbreakers to Georgia and
Kentucky. The wrestling squad won its 23rd SEIWA cham­pionship
while the track and baseball teams finished t
with mediocre records.
Spring elections closed out Jimmy Bryan and Phil "Me
Too" Wallace's year of Student Government leadership.
David Hill and Richard Roselle were elected to succeed
them. The election attracted a record voter turn-out, but
some confusion and cries of contested electionsresulted
from the use of voting machines.
Headed by Jim Mills, the Teacher Evaluation Committee
published an unprecedented booklet grading campus in­structors
and courses. Also in the field of publication,
an off-campus magazine-The Deserted Village-sprouted,
and a movement was initiated for a cultural magazine,
The Auburn Review.
After months of court dispute, Auburn's Montgomery
branch received a final okay to begin construction of
facilities. The branch is expected to expand annually to
supplement Auburn's instructional program.
Amid cries of "double jeopardy" and "en loco paren­tis,"
the Discipline Study Committee recommended alter­ations
in Auburn's disciplinary system. Discussion con
tinues as to whether discipline is educational or punitive.
A great deal has happened in the past months, but this
is only the beginning. Hopefully, a new era of awareness
for students, faculty and administrators has dawned on
the Auburn campus. With cooperation and reasoned de­bate,
this new awareness will help iron out the problems-educational,
personal and physical-of the University,

Haley Center opens June 12
All classrooms which
have been assigned for
courses in the new Haley
Center will be ready for use
the first day of summer quar­ter,
according to Col. Lin-wood
E. Funchess, director
of bnildings and grounds.
"The classrooms on the
first three floors will be com­pletely
ready by June 12,"
said Colonel Funchess.
With the introduction of the
new liberal education program
in which all curricula will re­quire
courses in the human­ities,
virtually every student
will use the facilities in Haley
Center. According to Dr. Tay­lor
Littleton, Dean of Under­graduate
Studies, a large num­ber
of students will have at
least one class in the Center
during summer quarter.
Ray K. Parker, Haley Cen­ter
Construction Inspector,
predicted, "Locating the de­sired
room could become a
source of confusion until stu­dents
familarize themselves
with the numbering system.
Because of the four quadrants
and the tower, Haley Center
is like five seperate build­ings."

weeks of interviews in which
approximately 130 students

Bennett indicted on drug charge;
trial date set for Thursday
By CHARLES ALLEN
Joe Bennett, former sen­ator
in aeronautical admin­istration
here was indicted
by the Lee County Grand
Jury last Tuesday for viola­tion
of the state narcotics
law dealing with the posses­sion
of marijuana.
Bennett's trial has been
set for May 29. He will appear
before the Lee County Crim­inal
Court with Judge L.J.
Tyner presiding. Bennett's
defense lawyer is Carl E.
Mayo of Opelika. Prosecuting
attorneys in the case are Dis­trict
Att. Tom F. Young and
G.H. Wright, Jr., county dis­trict
attorney.
Bennett was arrested at a
local fraternity house iSepl.
24, 1968, after marijuana was
found growing in the yard of
a house he was renting about
five miles south of Auburn.
Human nature will not change.
In any future great national
trial, compared with the men
of this, we. shall have as weak
and as strong, as silly and
as wise, as bad and as good.
After his arrest Bennett posted
S2.000 bond and was released.
Law officers said Bennett
had been under surveillance
for some time before the ar­rest
was made. Federal, state
and local authorities partici­pated
in the arrest and inves­tigation.
Lt. Jerry Powell of
the Lee County sheriff's of­fice
said Bennett was arrested
in connection with "posses­sion,
buying, selling and grow­ing
of marijuana." It was also
reported that he was "one of
the largest suppliers of the
product in this area."

A vole lor Philpoll
A University president, by the na­ture
of his job, is surrounded by con­troversy
and criticism. He is con­stantly
besieged by students, faculty,
alumni, parents and politicians. To
some he is too conservative; toothers,
he is too liberal. He moves to slowly
for some; too fast for others. The fa­culty
considers him a patsy for the
students, and the students contend that
he is unresponsive to student opinion.
A college president's job is very try­ing
and difficult. Just ask Pres. Harry
M Philpott.
His every action and decision is
criticized-sometimes justly, some­times
unjustly. But there is no doubt
Auburn has moved forward since Phil­pott
became president in 1965. He
gave a progressive approach to Au­burn's
academic program.
Philpott has encouraged the liberal
arts programs, and he has sought more
faculty and student representation,
on policy making committees. During
Philpott's tenure, the academic staff
has increased by 159 people. The bud­get
has increased more than $16.5
million.
Many of his critics and some of his
supporters fail to fully appreciate his
efforts and his programs as Auburn
continues through the transition from a

The Plainsman has often disagreed
with the administration's policies and
decisions, but we are grateful we have
a man of Philpott's capability with
whom to disagree.
Auburn University and the state of
Alabama are fortunate to have Harry
M. Philpott on their educational team.
Hippie Commendation
Seldom has The^lainsman found
cause to commend that portion of the
student body commonly known as "the
Hippie element."
That time, however, has now arrived.
The Hippies, or "Concerned Stu­dents,"
as they prefer to be called,
acted wisely in cancelling their planned
anti-compulsory ROTC demonstration
on Governor's Day last Thursday.
fSee story, page three). The demon­stration,
no matter how peaceful,
would have inflamed an already tense
situation, and the drive for a voluntary
ROTC program would have been de­layed
for months, perhaps years. A.
demonstration last Thursday, would
have been drastically untimely.
The Board of Trustees meets in
less than two weeks. Although Presi­dent
Philpott has not indicated what
action he will take, there is consider­able
speculation that he will present
Ingram returns
the proposed voluntary program to the
Board if there is even a chance that it
might be approved.
If the Board rejects the voluntary
program the supporters will have
two choices: demonstrate and further
polarize and solidify the Board's op­position,
or approach the problem on
the practical and intellectual level
and try to convince the individual
Board members that Auburn could pro­vide
her share of military officers
even if the basic ROTC program were
voluntary.
The true supporters of voluntary
ROTC will take the mature, intellec­tual
approach. Those students who
merely want a confrontation will dem­onstrate,
thereby defeating the very
goals they seek to obtain.
Remember: You catch more flies
with honey than vinegar.
The Plainsman takes special pride
in welcoming Robert B. Ingram back
to Auburn to speak at the annual Plains •
man Awards Banquet tonight. (See
page 3).
Ingram, a 1950 Auburn graduate;
was one of The Plainsman's stalwart
staffers while a student here. His
sports sections were superb, and his
work on The Plainsman served as a
stepping stone to greater heights in
his journalism career.
Ingram became one of Alabama's
most respected political reporters ac­quiring
a reputation for insight, ac­curacy,,
honesty and hard-hitting re­porting
of state politics. His thorough
knowledge of state affairs, his out­standing
ability and character led
Gov. Albert Brewer to appoint him
State Finance Director last year.
Bob Ingram is a man of whom Auburn
should be proud. We take pride in wel­coming
him back and are proud to call
him one of our own.
With this issue, Volume 96 of The
Auburn Plainsman comes to a close.
The end was come too soon. There
are many more stories to write and
rumors to investigate, but that duty
now belongs to another generation.
Jim Dembowski will edit the summer
Plainsman; Bruce Gilliland will take
the reins this fall. Both are solid men.
The Plainsman's long-standing tradi­tion
of excellence will be upheld.
Perhaps they can atone for this year's
shortcomings.
This issue will conclude a four
year Plainsman career. Since June
10, 1965, the Plainsman and Auburn
have been a treasured way of life; It
is over. It will be' hard to leave.
Before laying down the guns,, we
must recognize an individual who is
the heart of The Plainsman-Mickey
-30- Logiie, Plainsman adviser. He, more
than any one man is responsible for
Auburn's quality newspaper. He does
not instruct or guide us, he only
gives expert advice when consulted.
The decisions are always ours. .He
would have it no other way. Mickey
Logiie is one of the truly great men
in journalism.. To The Plainsman
staff, he is the greatest.
We have sought to print fair and
impartial news. Like other newsmen,
we have "been able to c r i t i c i z e,
praise and interpret... congratulate
and console... to point out a common
ground of understanding."
We hope that, in some small way,
we have helped Auburn to become a
better place in which to live and to
learn.
An editor's final column:
a look toward the future
By David Housel
The last column. How should it
written? What should it say? Should
praise? Criticize? Thank?
The answer is elusive. So is the column.
Outgoing Plainsman editors are gripped by an insist&nt
urge toward nostalgia and sentimentality as the hour ap­proaches
when the traditional
journalistic symbol, -30-,
will be used to mark the end
of their year as editor and
the end of their careers with
The Auburn Plainsman. .
be
it
On the advice of an old
and trusted friend, a former
Plainsman editor, an attempt -
it may be somewhat feeble-is
being made to avoid the
pitfalls of sentimentality
and nostalgia in this final
column. ;This year has been
but one chapter in the con­tinuing
drama of life at
Auburn and because it has
only been one chapter-not an
ending—emphasis will bet
placed on the future, not the
past.
Auburn's new student lead­ers
have tremendous poten­tial,
probably as much as
any group in recent years.
•There is one requirement
which must be met, however,
if they are to exercise their
full leadership capabilities.
They must be dedicated-ded­icated
to making Auburn Uni­v
e r s i t y a better place in
which to live and learn. ;
Dedication may be a sim­ple
word, but it is not a sim­ple
concept. Dedication and
sacrifice are inseparable,
and those student leaders
who work to fulfill their plans
for a better Auburn will be­come
accustomed to both.
Expect criticism. ;It is the
life-blood of a leader. ; Do
not let criticism-or praise-become
your guide, but do
not let it slip by unheard.
Learn to distinguish valid
criticism from bigoted opin­ion
and act accordingly.
Is the ultimate reward of
service to the University and
one's fellow students worth
the price? It can be—if one
works hard and spares no ef­fort.
This advice is offered now,
for the time is rapidly ap­proaching
when others must
learn the lessons already
learned by former student
leaders. ; Backward glances
bring a yearning for another
chance-a chance to improve,
a chance to change, a chance
to be more dedicated. ;A re­turn
is impossible. The work
must be done while the op­portunity
is at hand. It can­not
be done in retrospect.
With the conclusion of an
editor's last column, he too
joins the ranks of those who
have gone before, those for­mer
students who look back
with fond memories and an
ever-present wish that there
could be but one chance to
return and improve the prod­uct.
But the torch has been
passed.
For me, the torch is pass­ing.
An editor's last. column
should be one of reconcilia­tion.
; Many individuals, or­ganizations,
plans and the­ories
have been criticized
and praised with his words.
There have been those who
have disagreed with conclu­sions
reached. ; Our goals,
hopefully, were the same-a
better Auburn.; We have
disagreed on means but not
on ends. It was all just a
lover's quarrel, the type of
lover's quarrel known not
only to Plainsman editors
but to all student leaders.
These lover's quarrels are
vital to a university and a
democratic atmosphere.
Frank, honest and open
exchange of ideas are neces­sary
for the smooth function­ing
of the University. ;It is
the responsibility that Auburn
has this benefit.
Do your part! You'll never
regret it!

Students must accept
their given responsibility
At a time when Auburn students are ask­ing
for more responsibility in the decisions
of the University and the administration is willing to coope­rate,
a rather disturbing bit of information which contradicts
the students' aims was revealed.
When the Traffic Rules Committees met last week to make
changes in student and fa-

culty parking areas, none of
the student members were pre­sent.
The same situation oc-cured
last week at the Publi­cations
Board meeting.
These two incidents are
evidently not the only ones.
There have been other com­plaints
from faculty members
about students not appearing
at meetings.
Pres. Harry M. Philpott
has asked at a recent meeting
of the General Faculty for
broadened responsibility of
students on administrative
committees. He also sugges­ted
that student representa­tives
be allowed on the Cur­riculum
and Academic Hones­ty
Committees of the
University Senate.
PresidentPhilpottf s request
places the apparent lack of
responsibility of some stu­dents
in a bad light. It can­not
be determined if this
problem is widespread, but
conservatives who contend
that administrators should
maintain absolute control of
the University could use this
in their cititcisms of student
activism.
It certainly is not a good
idea for students to begin
slacking up in their efforts
at a time when the adminis-
Communication-understanding key\
The following is one of a series of
"Campus Perspective" articles written
by college students, faculty and adminis­trators.
This week's column is an un­signed
editorial reprinted from the Daily
Texan, University of Texas.
It seems to be a daily event to read in
newspapers about the disruptions occur­ring
on college campuses aroung the na­tion.
Often newspapers seriously distort
the actions on campuses, so the Ameri­can
public is frequently receiving a twist­ed
view of what is happening. And trag­ically
newspapers do not fulfill a proper
role in trying honestly to understand or
interpret the "whys" of such protests.
With such a dearth of inquiry into pro­test,
people are not properly asking them­selves
the questions of "why."
What is needed in America today is an
understanding of the causes of protests
on campus. There must be more communi­cation
and responsive action by students,
faculty and administrators. ;
G. Theodore Mitau, chancellor of Min­nesota's
state college system, said in a
speech before the American Association
of University Professors that, "A uni­versity
government predicated upon the
consent of the governed can no longer
deny the realities of student power, black
power, administrative power, alumni pow­er
and not least, of faculty power."
He continued to the key point, "Should
we neglect to fulfill our public and pro­fessional
trust and fail to stand up to
forces seeking the destruction of the uni­versity,
we will invite massive and in­stant
counterblows by an impatient socie­ty
bent on repression and reaction."
It must be the universities working
with faculty and students to better the
institution of education. . The idea of
shared power within the university struc­ture
has to be realized here.
The often pre-historic minds of admin­istrators
must be expanded into an honest
understanding of students on their campus­es.
Administrators must be able to look
at themselves as critically as the students
do. ;And after such inquiry they must be
able to yield and change if necessary.
-v^Students, who because of administra­tion-
inaction, are forced into making de­mands
must try to understand that the in­stant
changes they seek will take longer
in the well-established educational in­stitution.
THE AUBURN PLAINSMAN
Campus
The point is that we students, faculty
and administration are all here together.
We are all seeking a better education
and consequently a better institution.
Students have grown up in a technologi­cal,
media-oriented time. ;We are accus­tomed
to everything being instant-instant
coffee, instant phone calls and instant
travel. ;It is difficult not to have educa­tion
change as rapidly as everything else
around us does.;
For if institutions were changing as
rapidly as they should, there would be
no demands. And there never should have
to be demands or violence on campus.
One would hope that administrators could
and would talk rationally with students
about the issues, so that there would not
be need to move toward complete frustra­tion
by students to the point of violence.
Before a reactionary public "oyerreac-tion"
becomes too potent and dangerous,
administrators and students must work
together, not against each other, for the
changes that are desperately needed in an
educational institution which is often
irrelevant, and unresponsive.;
tration is willing to work with
them. The fact that they were
appointed to work with fa­culty
and administration of­ficials
places a great deal
of responsibility on them.
There are several things
that could affect the students'
work. C l a s s e s , labs and
quizzes weigh heavily on the
students' time. During the
spring, a natural tendency
toward laziness comes over
some students. However, com­mittee
meetings normally
don't require more than a few
hours each month. Some com­mittees
meet irregularly, but
they must consider important
matters when they do meet.
It is not asking too much of
the students to try to attend
these meetings. • If they do
not, they are only hurting the
efforts of other students who
are attempting to improve the
role of the student in the
University.
One problem that may have
occurred this past year is
that some students might
have "spread themselves too
thin." In a few cases, stu­dents
had been appointed
to more than one committee
in addition to their work in
student organizations such
as Student Government, IFC
and ACOIA. The multitude of
meetings may have been more
than the students could ef­fectively
handle.
David Hill, Student Govern­ment
president for the coming
year, might keep this point
in mind. He made it clear in
his campaign that he would
remove any person who did
not do his job. He could
help prevent this by not ap­pointing
the same person to
several jobs or not appointing
people who already hold key
student positions on campus.
In one instance already. Hill
appointed a student who holds
three elected jobs for next
year to a major position in
the Student Government.
Hill might consider appoin­ting
some of the recently
elected school presidents and
vice-presidents to these com­mittees.
These students could
make a significant contri­bution
in student government
since their school duties us­ually
do not require a full-time
effort.
The coming year holds
considerable potential for
increased student partici­pation
with faculty and admi­nistrative
officials on various
committees. Hill and other
student leaders will not re­ceive
everything they ask
for, but President Philpott's
request for increased student
responsibility indicates that
progress will be made.
The rest is left to the stu­dents
who receive the appoint­ments.
If they also want more
student voice in the affairs
of the University, they will
make every effort to effec­tively
do their jobs. If they
do not take their work ser­iously,
they will only hinder
Auburn's growth as anW.i
stitution of complete learning
and student development.

1969-a brief
but interesting
and busy year
By James Thornton
1969 is over for me and my
brief career with The Auburn
Plainsman. I won't say I en­joyed
every minute of it be­cause
I didn't. But the year
was interesting, and I stayed
busy.
And as I write my final
column I can­not
help but
wonder, "Why
did it pass so
fast.''
We have
made friends',
we've made
e n e m i e s ;
we've flunked
c o u r s e s , -
we've made
and missed deadlines; we've
made an All-American News­paper,
and we had a hell of a
lot of fun doing it.
Of course there have been
times when I felt like kicking
David Housel in the seat of
the pants and then I thought
better of it. There have been
times when I felt likesayingi
to heck with it. And then I
realized that The Auburn
Plainsman could be out the
next week with or without
me*
And Housel wasn't such a
bad guy after all.
I find it difficult to ex­plain
the intangible bond
which seems to bind the
Plainsman staff into a news­paper
family. Despite the an­ger,
apathy, horseplay and
some friendship among staff
members, The Plainsman al­ways
greeted Auburn students
every week.
How? I'll never fully under­stand.
Bob Payne was sometimes
obstinate; Jimmy Reeder goo-fed-
off; Joe Lehman stayed
gone for days; Lynn £car-brough
stayed gone; Bruce
Gilliland managed; Ed Ruzic
rambled on, and Margaret Hes­ter
ran for senator-at-large.
But they always managed to
get the job done. um<
And there were some who
would say that we didn't even
do that.
I can only say to those who
complained that it doesn't
really matter to me anymore.
The Plainsman seniors have
had their hour upon the stage,
and we mink it was a sell­out
performance. We are the
best.
No greater sacrifice has
any Auburn student made than
to fail a quiz or a course !for
The Auburn Plainsman and
consequently the Auburn stu­dent.
It takes an intestinal
fortitude and stupidity and a
love for Auburn.
I remember about a month
ago when I began counting the
number of issues we had left
to publish and how I wished
the next one would be the
last. Thank God this is the
last one.
Some who worked with us
at the beginning of the year
are not with us for the final
issue. They could not stay for
various reasons. We don't
blame them but we sometimes
envy them.
For those who came and
stayed and will stay for next
year, it's your ballgame now.
I hang it up.

Utters to the editor
Thursday, May 22, 1969 7- THE AUBURN PUlNfleUN
Coed reveals discipline system deficiencies
Editor, The Plainsman:
The Plainsman has recently
called attention to the pro­blem
of inequities in the dis­cipline
system at Auburn.
The information presented in
the last two issues of The
Plainsman is helpful but in­adequate.
As an undergraduate, I was
on the Women's Judiciary
Council for 12 quarters and
served on the Women's Disci­pline
Committee and the Joint
Discipline Committee several
times. On the basis of my
experiences on these commit­tees,
I offer some opinions
concerning Auburn' s discipline
system which have not been
published.
1. The student members of
the Women's Discipline Com­mittee
usually have brief
tenure while the faculty and
administrative members have
usually been on the committee
for many years. The student
members are not allowed to
read the transcripts of pre­vious
cases. Consequently,
they do not know what punish-ment
has been given in the
past. There are fewer student
members than faculty and ad­ministrative
members. The
students are often influenced
by the position and authority
of the faculty and adminis­trative
members. Furthermore,
they have not been trained or
encouraged to function as
equal members of the commit­tee
but as secondary "stu­dent"
members. They hesi­tate
to resist the expressed
opinions of the faculty and
administrative members of the
committees.
2. The secrecy of the com­mittees
regarding discipline
cases does not really serve
to protect students involved.
All acquaintances of a student
in some "discipline" trouble
know (by way of the "campus
grape vine") that the student
must go before the committee;
the same campus mechanism
of information distribution
serves to inform all interested
students of the penalty given.
Thus, secrecy only functions
to protect the committee from
public scrutiny (on the basis
of facts instead of hearsay)
The Plainsman is happy to print meeting announce­ments.
Notices should be limited to 50 words and should
be in-the Plainsman office, 108 Langdon Hall, no later
than Friday preceding the desired publication date.

3. Students who appear
humble and repentant are plea­sing
to the committee mem­bers,
whereas students who
question or denounce the
discipline system are quite
displeasing. Unfortunately, a
few phrases which make ques­tionable
the claim that Auburn
is a democratic institution
concerned with the rights and
needs of individual students,
occur all too often in disci­pline
cases concerning the
latter type of students:"Ifyou
don't like the rules, you can
leave.
"All girls get copies of the
women's rule book before they
come to Auburn. If they don't
like our rules, they don't have
to come.
"There are other schools;
you didn't have to come here."
Such statements carry the
implication that changes
should not be sought, that
everything should remain as
it is, that questions should
not be asked. Total and un­questioning
submission seems
to be desired by those who
use such expressions, and
this is not in keeping with
one of the stated purposes of
Auburn University: "To en­gage
constantly in an examin­ation
of the particular objec­tives,
goals and programs of
the University in the light of
new knowledge and of chang­ing
social conditions..." (page
eight, Auburn Bulletin)
4. According to students,
discipline, as it exists at
Auburn, is considered puni­tive,
humiliating, severe and
demoralizing. Students state
that rather than inspiring re-

discipline encourages students
to distrust both administrative

and subterfuge, to be
exceedingly careful and to
look forward eagerly to the
day they can leave Auburn.
5. If what students say to
their peers is true, a conser­vative
estimate for this cam­pus
is that at least 50 per
cent of the students have
violated rules such that, had
they been caught, they would
have faced severe disciplin­ary
action; and if this is so,
then we are faced with one of
two conclusions: either Auburn
students are irresponsible and
near criminal in their be­havior,
or The regulations
governing their behavior are
unrealistic "in the light of
new knowledge and changing
social conditions." That 50
per cent, incidentally, would
include students who are or
have been in "high places":
honor activities, student go­vernment,
fraternity and soro­rity
offices, AWS offices, desk
girls, hall monitors, house
oouncil members and disci
pline committee members.

University's role:
education, not regulation
Editor, The Plainsman:
It is the feeling of the Hu­man
Rights Forum that the
University is wrong in its at­tempt
to assume the role of
moral instructor and social
warden to students, who by
right of law and of citizen­ship
are free to use their own
discretion in ethical judg­ments
and social develop­ment.
A university must maintain
a mature relationship with
its students if it is to instill
intellectual maturity in them.
This cannot be accomplished
by establishing rules of con­duct,
curfew or social life
which make decisions for stu­dents.
One does not nurture
responsibility by denying it.
In this light, the Human
Rights Forum cannot help but
deprecate the punishment or
dismissal of students for so­cial
or moral reasons. We de­plore
the gross injustice and
personal damage done to stu­dents
who are dismissed for
refusing to subscribe to the
University's standardized so­cial
and ethical code-a code
which is unwritten and vague.
As an organization created
to protect human dignity and
to combat the usurpation of
human rights and integrity, the
Human Rights Forum asks for
the abolition of AWS, the Dis­ciplinary
Board and any other
institution which perpetrates
discrimination between men
and women students or be­tween
students and other
citizens.
The Forum calls for am­nesty
for those dismissed un­der
the present social dicta­torship.
A student's social
life is no concern of the Uni­versity.
Any mature adminis­tration
will realize this and
will seek out its true objec­tive-
education, not regula­tion.

Honors Day attendance
shows student apathy
Editor, The Plainsman:
Well, again Auburn students
have demonstrated their gene­ral
lack of interest in the
affairs of our campus. This
time we went big, for it was
a very gracious and interested
governor that was the brunt
of our apathy.
Last Thursday, Governor's
Day, out of the entire student
body and faculty (yes, the
faculty needs to be included
also; relatively few felt com­pelled
to attend the Governor's
Convocation. The sad point
is that at least 90 per cent of
those who did attend were
ROTC cadets, who were on
orders to attend, or students
and families of students who
were to receive awards. Where
was the rest of the campus?
Classes had been dismissed.
But it was not to end here.
It was unbelievable the num­ber
of students who had the
audacity to leave the Coliseum
during the Governor's speech.
This kind of conduct oc­curs
time and again. There
are the few who are involved
in each aspect of Auburn life
and the majority who possess
such total lack of concern
that simple activities as vo­ting,
a blood drive and being
polite to a governor is beyond
their reach.
When are we going to begin
being a university that wishes
to be involved, concerned and
take action? A university in
which a student can obtain a
total education.
Where is the source of this
apathy? Could it be that our
actions have been so com­pletely
controlled by the
University administration that
we are now unable to function
as individuals who are able
to think and initiate action
on our own. I truly feel that
the transition from this dor­mant,
controlled atmosphere
to one of progressive thinking,
where the student is confron­ted
with the world and its
issues and allowed to decide
for himself, must be made.
For if it is not. Auburn will
have failed its students.

as much as 25 or 26 miles per gallon—if you have
an educated toe and the right road conditions. If you
have a lead foot, or do a lot of city driving, you
will get a lot less. In tests by professional drivers at
our tracks, where we do our best to duplicate actual
driving conditions, Maverick averaged 22.5 mpg.
Q. What kind of power does Maverick have?
A. Maverick's Six lets loose 105 galloping horses. That's
52 more than you get in the VW 1500. Maverick
can cover 417 feet in ten seconds from a standing
start. When you enter a 70-mph turnpike, you
won't feel like a retired bookkeeper thrust into the
middle of a pro football game.
Q. If it has an eight-inch longer wheelbase than the
import, does it still handle and park easily?
A. Maverick's turning circle is 35.6 feet (vs. 36 feet for
its leading import rival). Maverick can slant through
traffic like a halfback. It makes you a better driver
because of the nimble way it handles in traffic, goes
around corners and slides into tight parking spots.
Q.
A.
Can a small car be safe? And how safe is safe?
This small car incorporates all the latest advances
in engineering. Its brakes are as big as a standard
compact's—designed to stop cars weighing hundreds
of pounds more. Maverick gives you weight. . .
power. . . stability . . . designed for greater peace
of mind on high-speed turnpikes where so many
Americans spend so much of their time at 70
miles per hour.

Pieper to race
in Europe
this summer
Steve Pieper, Auburn's
contribution to race car
driving, is one of six dri­vers
invited to challenge
Europe's best in Formula
Vee competition in Germany
this summer.
The Auburn sophomore is
the only college student among
the U.S. invitees. He got his
chance by winning the Formula
Vee World Championship on
Daytona's International Speed­way
last January. A native
of Alexandria, Va.,, he de­feated
116 other entrants from
12 countries..
Pieper's victory at Daytona
last January was extraordinary
because be was driving his
first race with an SCCA natio­nal
license. His earlier
racing consisted of eight
years in go-kart competition
and one in Formula Vee re­gional
events. Among drivers
he edged out in the Vee cham­pionship
event was Jim Mc-
Daniel, 40, alsoof Al exandria,
his instructor in SCCA drivers'!
licensing school. McDaniel
will also go to Europe.
The other drivers are Bill
Campbell of Contonment, Fla.,
Harry Ingle of Charlotte, N.C.
and Ray Weaver of Huntington
Park, Calif.
"I wasn't disappointed
as far as the overall game
went, but I was disappoin­ted
in the whole week pro­ceeding
the game," said
Head Coach Ralph "Snug"
Jordan after last Saturday's
annual A-Day game.
The Blue team, composed
of the first team offense and
defense, defeated the Orange
team 27-0 as 18,131, the larg­est
spring crowd ever, looked
on.
The game wasn't what many
expected as sophomore sen­sations
Pat Sullivan and Terry
Beasley were never able to
connect on their patented
bomb. Sullivan, who was over­throwing
his receivers most
of the day, connected on 10 of
23 passes with no intercep­tions.
Beasley was on the
receiving end four times for
36 yards.
"Our scrimmage scheduled
for Wedne sday was rained out,'
continued Jordan, "and that
hurt us. We had planned to
run first team offense against
the first team defense for the
first time this spring. All of
our efforts had been aimed at
this, and the rain got the
boys down. On Thursday the
defense just whipped the of­fense
all over the field."
And the defense was no
less spectacular Saturday as
Mike Kolen, Sonny Ferguson,
Ron Yarbrough, Dave Camp­bell
and the rest of the le­gions
held the second and
third team Oranges scoreless.
While holding the Orange team
to only 170 yards of total of­fense,
the Blues also inter­cepted
three passes.
Bobby Hess, who led all"
rushers with 55 yards in ten
LARRY WILLIN6HAM GRABS HOLD OF TERRY BEASLEY
Beasley caught four passes from Sullivan for 38 yards
carries, was named the most
outstanding offensive player.
Mike "Captain Kronen" Ko­len,
who Liuoked down ball
carriers all afternoon and re­turned
one interception 71
yards, was named the outstand­ing
defensive player..
The Blue's initial score
came in the second quarter
following an interception by
Larry Willingham. Mike Cur­rier's
one-yard plunge cul­minated
a 39-yard drive and
with John Riley's conversion,
the Blues led 7-0.
Riley took over the rest of
the first half hitting on field
goals from 44 and 34 yards to
make the score 13-0 at the
intermission.
Kolen's interception and
run back to the Orange 17-yard
line on the last play of the
third quarter set up the next
Blue touchdown. Hess went
the remaining distance on the
first play of the fourth quar­ter.
Riley again converted and
the score was 20-0.
The final score of the day
came in the final minutes of
the game when Mickey Zofko
went over from the one. His
plunge ended a 50-yard drive
in which his 21-yard run was
the highlight.
Coach Jordan summed the
team's performance, "It is
obvious there will be a lot
of hard work to be done when
we come back in the fall, but
that is as it always is. We
have to have better blocking
from our offensive line than
we had today. There were en­tirely
too many fumbles and
penalties. The defensive was
certainly the most impressive
thing,, although it must im­prove.'
One bright spot was
the punting of Steve Brous-sard
and Randy Beverly."
Broussard averaged 43.2 on
seven punts. Beverly punted
eight times for a 39-yard av­erage
.
Other offensive standouts
were Mickey Zofko who rushed
for 50 yards on 12 carries,
Sammy Smith who carried 13
times for 52 yards, Mike Cur­rier
who caught three passes
for 59 yards and Connie Fred­erick
who hauled in four re­ceptions
for 49 yards.
Tigers break individual records
but Vols still dominate SEC meet
JACK MARSH
Shows long jump form
By RON BAREFIELD
Although Werner Beiers-doerf^
if and Bobby Baker
set individual records and
the 440-relay team broke
the standing Auburn Uni­versity
record in the event,
the Tiger thinclads had to
settle for a fourth place tie
in the Southeastern Confer­ence
track meet Friday and
Saturday, May 15-16.
As expected, Tennessee,
rolling up a total of 118l/2
points, led the three-team
contingent that finished ahead
of the Tigers. Florida's 53
points and LSU's 43 placed
them ahead of Auburn and
Kentucky who tied with 14
points each.
Although he had earlier
stated he had no aspirations
of finishing higher than fourth

in the meet, track mentor Mel
Rosen said, " I was disap­pointed
that we didn't score
more points."
"We were hurt by the ill­ness
of Barry Erwin who got
sick Thursday before the meet
started on Friday," Rosen
said. "He had scored in the
shot and discus in every
other meet but didn't get any­thing
in this one.
"There were also the good
performances turned in by
Beiersdoerfer, Baker and the
440-relay team, and we didn't
get more than a third place
with any of them," Rosen
commented.
Beiersdoerfer ran the mile
oval in 4.14 but failed to
place, and Bobby Baker's 9.7
in the 100-yard dash only
netted him a third place. "Ba­ker
did real well in capturing
third in the event," Rosen
said. "He has a good future
ahead of him here." Baker
ran a 9.6 hundred in the pre­liminaries,
which rates as
the best time a freshman has
ever turned in at Auburn.
In the 440 relays, the relay
team set 40.8 as the new AU
standard in the record books,
but it was not good enough to
better either the 40.3 ran by
the Tennessee quartet or the
40.4 of LSU relayers.
Jack Marsh was defeated
in his try to successfully de­fend
his conference title in
the broad jump. Marsh had
won the event for the past
two years but was dethroned
by Florida's Mike Burton.
Burton leaped 24 feet, 6 in­ches
while Marsh could man­age
but 24 feet, 1VA inches.
Other Tigers that placed in
the meet were Marsh who cap­tured
third place in the triple
jump and Robert Maxwell who
finished fifth in the 220-yard
dash.

a hit to left field. Both run­ners
scored easily when left-fielder
Andy Moates let the
ball get by him.

runs in the fourth and then
FSU tallied two in the sixth

FSU added a run in the
eighth to close the gap to one
run but Cason's triple in the
eighth gave Auburn a safe
margin.

Lyle has good spring
on ground and in air
By RICHARD WITTISH
During a pre-A-Day Game practice s e s s i o n senior
guard Tim Lyle charged offside:, busting a play and bring-the
rough scrimmage to a brief halt.
"C'mon, Lyle, get with it," growled a coach. "Your
mind must be up in the clouds somewhere."
The coach's comment was closer to the truth than he
knew. For although Lyle played well enough during the
spring to line up with the first-string Blue team when the
A-Day Game whistle blew last Saturday, part of his spring
was spent in the sky.
Lyle, an advanced Air Force ROTC cadet, took part
in the Auburn detachment's Flight Instruction Program
(FlP)this spring and, when he wasn't opening holes for
Auburn runners or protecting Tiger quarterbacks, learned
to fly.
He learned so well and fast that he recently finished
the course, which usually takes from 10 to 12 weeks to
complete, in 41 days, a record for Auburn Air Force FIP
students. FIP gives the student pilot 36*/2 flying hours in
single-engine, propeller-driven aircraft, while introducing
the student to flying and screening him for further train­ing
in the Air Force.
The previous record was 42 hours, set just 24 hours
before by senior cadet Mike Riddle. Earlier in the quar­ter,
cadet Herbert Kyzer had established a mark of 43
hours, one which Air Force detachment officers had ex­pected
to stand for some time.
"I had planned to finish in 35 days," says Lyle, " but
bad weather and other circumstances held me up for about
two weeks."
As reasons for his quick finish, Lyle offers, "I love
to fly, and the people out at Auburn-Opel ika Airport took
interest in me and have a tremendous interest in avia­tion."
Lyle's flying experience prior to this spring consisted
of a jet ride in a trainer at Air Force summer camp, but
being an aviation management major gave Tim a built-in
motivation to get airborne.
Back on the ground, Lyle established himself as a
spring football first teamer.
He'd been in that position at the start of last fall, but
a knee injury set him back and for the remainder of the
year he was a reserve, splitting time between offensive
tackle and guard.
"I was lucky this spring in that I had no physical in­juries,"
says Lyle, who also wrestled with the Auburn
team this winter. "I hope to start at guard this fall."
One reason for wanting to start is Tim's belief that
the Tigers will be in the top two-in the nation-not just
the Southeastern Conference.
"I have a lot of confidence in our defense," says the
TIM LYLE RECEIVES BOTTLE OF CHAMPAGNE
Col. Ritchie P. Stimpson presents the award
native of Chattanooga, Tenn. "I had to block those studs
all spring and they're really tough. If we offensive line­men
can come around and give (quarterback Pat) Sullivan
and (split end Terry) Beasley some time, there'll be no
stopping us."
Lyle graduates next March. Then he's off to flight
school to become an Air Force pilot.
"I'd like to fly a fighter, especially the type where
I'd be in complete control, like an F-105," says Lyle.
For finishing FIP in record time, Lyle was awarded a
bottle of champagne by the Air Force ROTC detachment.
"I've decided to wait until I've graduated from flight
school to open that champagne," says Lyle.
But between now and then, Auburn's flyingest Tiger
has a lot of blocking to do.

PIKES
"It's still an outside shot,"
commented PKA Tommy Hill,
By RON BAREFIELD
"They'll have a pretty good team next year and pro­bably
go undefeated," was the unequivocal reply of
Thomas Stinsin to a question concerning the Auburn
football team.
Thomas is an employee in the Coliseum equipment
room and has a sound formula on which to base his pre­diction.
He's been working in the equipment room for
almost half of his 35 years and before that the Auburn
native's father was a university employee. He first started
working for the University in 1953 and since then Thomas
has issued equipment to every athlete to wear the orange
and blue of Auburn. Although he works with all sports,
it's almost impossible to ge't Thomas to talk about any-
" thing except football.
Thomas formulated his prediction of one of the best
1 Auburn gridiron teams in recent history the same way he
tells what kind of a day a player had on the practice
field.
DIRTIEST JERSEYS
"It's easy to tell what kind of a day a player had just
by looking at his jersey after practice," Stinsin said.
"The ones that are covered with dirt and blood had the
s -best practice and the players who have clean ones didn't
•*; do too much," he added.
" " "I would say that Mike Kolen comes in with the dirt­iest
jersey everyday. That fellow must love dirt and
blood, judging from the way his jersey looks," Thomas
commented.
What do dirty uniforms and a good football team have
in common? To Thomas they are synonymous. The best
teams have the dirtiest jerseys after practice and accor­ding
to Thomas, "There have been a lot of dirty jerseys
in the locker room during spring drills."
Thomas, who has been a War Eagle fan all his life,
doesn't get much of a chance to see the Tigers play un­less
they play on television because he has to keep the
equipment room open during the games. "I average seeing
about one game during each season," he said.
ATHLETES AREN'T THE SAME
The quiet custodian has some loud opinions about the
athletes of today. "Nowdays the athletes don't have the
same attitude they had back in 1953 when I first came
here," he said, "they are used to having their way in
high school and when they come here it doesn't work
their way. I guess they are just spoiled by the publicity
they get before they come here."
During his 17 years here Thomas rated Joe Childress
as the best athlete to play for Auburn because "he was
a good all-around athlete and a real nice guy."
Thomas' favorite on this edition of the Tigers is Pat
Sullivan for the same reasons.
(Continued from page 9)
Baseball...
Lazenby was working on a
three-hit shutout going into
the eighth inning when disas­ter
struck. A single, wild
pitch, double and two-run
homer by centerfielder Walt
Sumner tied the score.
Auburn put two men on with
one out in the bottom of the
ninth but could not score,and
three runs in the top of the
tenth gave the Seminoles a
6-3 win.
Cason again led the Tiger
off ense with two doubles. Mer­chant
and Lazenby collected
two singles each. Larry Kain
(3-3) was the losing pitcher.

but this quarter we decided
we wanted the All-Sports Tro­phy
and that we'd even prac­tice
in order to get it. That's
what has really made the dif­ference-
practice. ''
PKA practice has resulted
in their winning their league
in softball, tennis, badminton
and horseshoes, without suf­fering
a single loss. But being
in the finals in every sport
and having the track meet all
in the course of five days
will pose a major problem for
the PKA athletes. Some of
them play as many as three
sports. For instance, Ronny
Campbell throws horse shoes,
runs track and plays badmin­ton.
"It's going to take a lot of
guts and luck to win every­thing,"
added Hill.
With the first round of the
double elimination softball
play-offs between PKA and
AGR ending in a 2-1 victory
for Pike, Hill commented,
"We thought we could do it,
but we just weren't used to
pitchers of Hitch's caliber. It
took us a while to adjust our
hitting. When we meet him
again, and I'm sure we will,
we will be accustomed to his
speed. It will be a low scoring
game, but I think we'll come
out on top."
DELTA CHI
DC Sports chairman, Otto
Gaylord, was far less optim­istic.
"We haven't got a chance.
We blew softball. We blew
horseshoes. We blew badmin­ton.
After having such a good
winter quarter, I just can't
understand it."
"Our only hope now is for
ATO to place poorly in the
track meet," added Gaylord.
The interview ended with
the glimpse of true DC spirit
as Gaylord said, "We may
not have done well in the
other spring sports, but we're
not going to give the track
meet to anyone. We will be
out there to win."

University employee has been working with Auburn athletes for 17 years
tennis.
"In softball we were trying
only to equal the Delta Chis'
record, but by luck the other
teams in our league elimin­ated
themselves, thus leaving
us with the best record," said
Page. "We're not counting on
anything above fourth in the
play-offs."
With probably the best bad­minton
duo in recent Intramural
history, Larry Chandler and
Jack Franer, ATO is counting
on a sure 75-point victory.
"Although we won the track
meet last year and we have
everyone returning, I still
can't predict us to win, be­cause
you can't tell when a
fraternity will pledge a lot of
high school track stars who
are still in shape," commented
Page. "I figured it out. If we
place at least fifth in the
track meet and last in every­thing
else but badminton, we
will win it."
LAST PREDICTION
As for my last prediction of
the year; Alpha Tau Omega
will win the All-Sports Trophy
hands down, Delta Chi will
finish a weak second and Pi
Kappa Alpha will end the sea­son
a strong third. But then
again, my prediction and a
dime will buy you a cup of
coffee.

Judi Jehle—pre-med coed, championship golfer
By BEVERLY BRADFORD
[t might be unusual to find an Auburn co-ed whose
career goal is to do research which might isolate a;link-between
genetics and cerebral palsy.
And it would certainly be unusual to meet a lady gol­fer
whose goal is to become one of the top amateurs in
in the country.
But Judi Jehle, 2PM, has both these goals in mind as
she walks to her 10 a.m. class each day after completing
18 holes of very-early morning golf. And on days when she
does not have a 2-6 p.m. physics lab, she goes back to
the golf course after class to practice until dark.
Combining a curriculum in pre-medicine with golf re­quires
almost all of Judi's time, and she has become ac­customed
to passing up fraternity house parties and week­ends
at the lake so they won't interfere with her golf
game.
Golf has been Judi's most immediate and demanding
goal since she won her first tournament at the age of 12.
She first became interested in the game because she wan­ted
to be like her father, a better-than-average golfer.
"One reason I've stayed interested in golf is because
my Dad never pushed me," she said.
Judi, who made her only hole-in-one at the age of 13,
played golf during her high school days at Catholic High
in Montgomery, where she was a member of the golf team.
"Like any other sport, you have to be willing to give
everything to be a really good golfer," said Judi. Her
proficiency in the game has earned her a rating as the
fifth leading amateur lady golfer in the country by the
United States Golf Association.
Judi has won more than 3U invitational ladies amateur
golf tournaments across the nation, including the Ala-
'bama Junior and Tri-State Amateur Tournaments. She
placed in the semi-final round in the Western Amateur
and in the quarter-final round in the Trans-Mississippi
and Southern Tournaments.
She holds records in Montgomery for low scores of 69
and 67 at Bonnie Crest and Arrowhead country Clubs
In June, Judi will represent Auburn in the annual Col­legiate
Tournament to be held this year at Pennsylvania
State University. It is one of some 20 tournaments Judi
has scheduled for this summer.
"My best friends are golfers from all over the country,"
she said, "and we look forward each year to seeing each
each other at the season's first tournament. We are op­ponents
on the course, but friends when we're off."
Southeastern Conference regulations prohibit girls from
college golf teams, so Judi seldom plays against boys.
"It's very touchy when you beat a boy," she said, ex­plaining
that she is just as happy not to compete with
them.
"Men make better golfers than ladies because they are
stronger and more composed on the course," she added.
Judi said she enjoys playing at tournaments when her
father is in the spectators' galley, but her mother gets
too nervous watching and usually stays home from her
tournaments.
"I'm used to playing before crowds now," she said,
"and am usually so concerned about playing that I don't
notice the people watching. The only time I get nervous
is when I take the lead in a tournament."
Judi enters her most important tournament-the U.S.
Ladies Open-on June 25. The four-day torunament, to be
held this year at Scenic Hills Golf Course in Pensacola,
Fla., is open to amateur and professional lady golfers.

1969 Miss Auburn
Ginger almost chose Bama
GINGER VAN HOOSER, 1969 MISS AUBURN REGAINS FAITH IN THE MAIL
Lost applications almost kept her from being admitted to AU 3 years ago
1969 Miss Auburn, Gin­ger
Van Hooser, almost be­came
a University of Ala­bama
coed, although she
wanted to attend Auburn.
But, her persistence and
determination three years ago
to overcome the U.S. Postal
Service and the Registrar's
Office to become an Auburn
. student paid off.
Two letters of application
had failed to reach the proper
people on the Plains and
Ginger, then a senior at Wood-lawn
High in Birmingham, be­gan
thinking of Alabama as
an alternative since she had
received no response from
Auburn officials. However,
she made the third time a
'charm" by insuring her en­trance
papers and was ac­cepted
without any trouble.
"Though I didn't have any
family ties here, everything
I had heard and seen made me
feel that Auburn was charac­teristic
of what I wanted in a
university. It had the type
atmosphere I felt I would en­joy."
Three years later, Auburn
repaid the compliment Ginger
gave to the University. As
Miss Auburn, Ginger holds a
title that symbolizes her ideals
as characteristic of those Au­burn
holds dear.
"I'm indebted to Michelle
Purnell, my campaign chair­man,
my sorority sisters and
anyone who helped me out,"
Ginger said. "Michelle cer­tainly
had everything planned
out to the minute, and every­one
followed those plans.
Maybe that's why I won."
Ginger, a member of Alpha
Gamma Delta sorority, knew
what it would take to win the
title because she had parti­cipated
in two Miss Auburn
races for her sorority sisters.
Enlisting help from several
sources, she built her cam­paign
around the slogan,
"Spice it np with a little Gin­ger,"
supplied by a junior
high speech class in Selma.
The class was taught by for­mer
Alpha Gam and Auburn
student, Jeannie S wanner
Bowline, who held the title
of Miss North Carolina sev­eral
years ago.
"We thought about one or
two others the students turned
in," Ginger said, "but things
like 'Don't be a loser, vote
for Van Hooser,' just seemed
too corny.''
The five feet, four inch speech
correction major "spiced up"
her campaign with a spoof
about fictional candidates
running for Miss Homecoming,.
Plainsman editor and Greek
Goddess. "I didn't run into
any real problems in campaign­ing.
I guess the worst feel­ing
I had was when my mimick­ing
wasn't well-received. Af­ter
I stepped out the door, I
sometimes worried that 1 had
said the wrong thing."
However, since she did
win, it is obvious she was
well-received in most places.
And, she made quite an im­pression
on Auburn males.
Several phone calls followed
the announcement of her vic­tory.
One freshman in pre-law
called and, after pointing out
to Ginger that "your nose is
an eighth of an inch too long,
and your slogan was 'pit,'"
admitted she was "very at­tractive.
"I'm going to surpass all
social etiquette and ask you
for a date," he said.
"Well, I'm very flattered
and appreciate the campaign
tips, but I've been dating
someone pretty regularly,"
she replied.
"In that case, just consider
this a flattering phone call,"
the caller said, and hung up.
Another boy approached
Ginger in Magnolia Hall and
told her that his room was
red, black and white decor.
He asked for 50 of her pos­ters
to make his room into
one big checkerboard. "I'll
be happy to make a campaign
donation to pay for the pos­ters,"
he volunteered.
"I had to turn him down,"
Ginger said regretfully, "Be­cause
I didn't have any left."
Two of Ginger's solid cam­paign
backers were her par­ents,
Mr. and Mrs. H.A. Van
Hooser who supplied family
encouragement and support.
"I called them about 10:30
the night I won," Ginger re­called.
"Mom was a nervous
wreck, since the announce­ment
was later than it was
supposed to be. My father
wasn't too excited-he was
asleep."
Looking at her background,
Ginger will be a versatile
Miss Auburn. She has danced
since she was three. She al­so
played drum in her high
school band before she be­came
a majorette her sopho­more
year.
Active on several Teen
Fashion Boards in Birming­ham,
Ginger entered the Ala­bama
Junior Miss Pageant
two years "for the fun in­volved
and the experience of
meeting people.''
In addition to winning schol­arships
both years, she be­came
the first high school
junior in the pageant's his­tory
to perform on stage the
final night of the contest.
Ginger was first alternate
in 1966.
As a Miss Alabama contes­tant,
she was selected "Miss
Congeniality" in 1967, fourth
alternate in 1968 and won tui­tion
scholarships two years |
in a row.
The list of honors became
longer at Auburn: Freshmanl
dorm president, outstanding
pledge of her sorority, sociall
chairman of A WS, army brigade!
sponsor, War Eagle girl, ma-T
jorette and sorority rush chair-f
man.
Now added to that list id
"Miss Auburn" and Ginge|
is eager to get started.
"I'm looking forward,
fulfilling the duties of Miss
Auburn," Ginger said in are-J
cent interview. "Working witlf
public relations, hostinj
ACOIA, helping out with Stu-J
dents for Higher Education^
and other things. One of my|
major goals is to become in­volved
with a major project!
such as SHE. I would like to
work with something like this
in more than just a superficial
way.
"I think Miss Auburn is ir
a position to communicate tc[
students as well as for stu-J
dents," Ginger said. "Letf
them know how and why things
are being done in studeni
government. This is some-j
thing I'll strive for as Miss
Auburn."
In communicating with hed
fellow students, however J
don't be surprised if Ginger's
phone bill is higher than heij
postage bill.
Mary Lou regrets end of reign
"The experiences I had were too wonderful, too re­warding
, too thrilling and exciting to begin to express
them in words. It's been a short year-I hate to see it
end."
But two weeks from now, the year-and four years of
college-will officially end for Mary Lou Sandoz, 1968
Miss Auburn, and one of over 1,400 who will graduate
this spring.
She will stand out among her fellow graduates for the
honors received while here: president of the School of
Home Economics, Who's Who in American Universities
and Colleges, female recipient of the Algernon Sidney
Sullivan Award.
But, despite these awards, Mary Lou's fondest mem­ories
of her college days will revolve around her year
as Miss Auburn. "Each Miss Auburn will have different
memories," she said. "Each memory is unique. The ex­perience
of being Miss Auburn is something that only the
individual who has gone through it can know how it af­fects
them."
The "short year" for Mary Lou was a busy one. Nat­urally,
she hosted the numerous luncheons, judged high
school beauty contests and met athletic prospects. But
if the 1968 Miss Auburn sat down to list all she had
done the past year, some would have stars by them.
Her presentation of a feather of War Eagle IV to Gov.
Albert Brewer as a birthday present was significant,
according to Mary Lou, since it was only the second
"donation" that Auburn's mascot has made in service
•to the University.
The Annual Cake Race might get top priority on her
list, and not just because it's traditional that Miss Au­burn
kiss the winner. Mary Lou, though not of her own
choosing, may have begun a new tradition by receiving
kisses from the top 25 freshmen finishers.
"ff I came in the top 25, I'm going to get a kiars from
you," number 25 told her.
Hosting ACOIA was a special event for the 5-6 blonde,
despite a patch over her eye that caused her some em­barrassment.
Flying glass hit her above the eye at the
UB the morning ACOIA began, but Mary Lou didn't let it
bother hei, as she met such national figures as Abraham
Ribicoff and James J. Kilpatrick.
Mary Lou, a member of Kappa Delta sorority, also met
and dined with Sen. Edmund Muskie (D-Maine) upon his
arrival here for a speech.
Members of Ft. Benning's Allied Officers Club, al­ways
a favorite with Miss Auburns because of their
sincerity and friendliness, paid periodic visits to Au­burn,
and Mary Lou received invitations to Morocco,
Bolivia and the Philippines.
While serving as hostess for Aubum, Mary Lou found
that she received new impressions of her school in every
person she met. Perhaps she will be thinking about what
she said shortly after her reign of Miss Auburn had ended
when she walks on the Memorial Coliseum stage to re­ceive
her diploma June 3.
"Every time I represented Auburn I learned something
new. I learned something more about Aubum. In trying to
put forth the image of the Auburn student," Mary Lou
said, "I' became aware of what other people think Aubum
is, and tried to give them a clearer impression of Auburn
as the student sees it."
And isn't that what Miss Auburn is supposed to do?
