Senate approves
ACOIA salaries,
ASG delegation
By LYN SCARBROUGH
Salaries for chairman and secretary of the Auburn
Conference on International Affairs (ACOIA) and student
representation at the upcoming Associated Student Gov­ernment
(ASG) convention in Washington, D.C., were
approved by the Student
Senate Monday night.
By a 14-1 vote, the Sen­ate
voted to allot $450 an-ually
to the ACOIA chair­man
and $300 to the ACOIA
secretary. Part of the salary
will be paid at the end of
each quarter. The Senate left
the chairman with authority
to distribute the secretary's
salary among several mem­bers
of the secretarial staff.
ASG CONVENTION
Two representatives will be
sent to the ASG convention,
Nov. 27-Dec. 1, if funds for
both persons can be secured.
Charles Taylor, student body
treasurer, reported that stu­dent
body president Jimmy
Bryan said that funds were
available from the student
government travel fund to send
one representative, but funds
from the Allocations Board
will be necessary to send the
second student.
The Student Body Office
and Senate are investigating
the possibility of affiliation
with a national student gov­ernment
association. Both
ASG and National Student
Assn. (NSA) are under con­sideration.
Five student re­presentatives
attend the NSA
convention last August.
In other action, the Senate,

by a vote of 13-2, set up a
Rules Committee to screen
business to be presented at
Senate meetings. In order to
be discussed at the meeting,
business must be presentea
to the committee before 4 p.m.
on Thursday preceding the
Monday night meeting.
TWO-THIRDS VOTE
A two-thirds vote of mem­bers
present will be necessary
to consider business which
was not submitted by the
proper time. The president
pro-tem of the Senate, the
student body vice-president,
the assistant clerk of the
Senate and one Senator-at-
Large will serve on the com­mittee.
The Senate unanimously
approved charters for Pi
Gamma Tau, a pre-engineering
honorary, and the National
Collegiate Association of
Secretaries. The group also
approved the Buddy Rutledge
Fund Drive, which is being
carried on in memory of the
former Auburn sportscaster.
RACE RELATIONS
Student body vice-president
Philip Wallace announced
that student body president
Jimmy Bryan will appoint an
assistant to advise him on
race relations, although no
I Executive Cabinet position
will be created for this pur­pose.
The Senate also discussed
possible changes in Univer­sity
Freshman Council mem­bership,
leasing practices for
on-campus and off-campus
housing, and the creation of
a Student Discount Service.

Coeds will have a larger

An alteration of coed

has been approved by Dean

The rule change simplifies

Gov. Brewer-^Ho state plans'
for Auburn ABC liquor store
Gov. Albert Brewer "has
no plans" for locating an
Alabama Beverage Control
liquor store within the Au­burn
City limits, said Au­burn
City Council President
Dan Hollis this week.
Hollis, who led a delega­tion
to Brewer's Montgomery
office Tuesday in opposition
to the proposed liquor store,
would not elaborate on the
conference with the Governor.
He offered a single statement.
"The Governor said, 'The
State of Alabama has no plans
for initiating establishment
of an ABC liquor store in Au­burn.'"
said Hollis.
Hollis said State Rep. Pete
Turnham of Auburn accompan­ied
him and Auburn City
Councilmen Wayne Mitcham
and Paul Conner on the visit.
According to Hollis the dele­gation
was to present opposing
views to those presented by
Auburn Mayor James Haygood.
Haygood conferred with Gov.
Brewer Oct. 15 seeking to lo­cate
a liquor store within the
city limits.

ACOIA Study Day
begins tomorrow
By MARGARET HESTER
Advance preparation for the 1969 Auburn
Conference on International Affairs will
begin tomorrow with a Study Day program
emphasizing the Conference topic, "Urban
Crisis."
Study Day will feature Douglas C.
Brooks of the Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD) and a panel
discussion with six professors on the
"Urban Problem."
Brooks, who as deputy assistant regional
director for HUD works with urban renewal
in eight southern states, will discuss
"Urban Renewal" tomorrow at 9 a.m. in
Langdon Hall.
HUD currently has renewal projects in
200 cities across the nation in an effort
to meet the housing shortage, one aspect
of the urban crisis facing the U.S.
"It will take a major national effort to
meet the housing problem that must be
met for a meaningful response to the urban
crisis," Brooks said.
Insight into the urban problem will be
presented in a panel discussion at 11 a.m.
tomorrow at Langdon Hall. The discussion
will be moderated by Dr. Ed Williamson
of the history department, who will intro­duce
the topic, "Urban Problems," and
discuss the general aspects of the pro­blem.
Each professor will then give a five-minute
commentary, followed by a question
and answer session.
Dean J. Ingraham Clark of the School
of Architecture and the Fine Arts, will
discuss misconceptions of the urban
crisis, actual causes and possible alle­viation
of the problems.
"City Planning and Development" will
be the topic of Peter Jarvis, also of the
School of Architecture and Fine Arts.
Dr. William G. Mortenson, instructor in
the School of Business, will present the
effect of highways on urban development
and comment on the 1968 Highway Act,
which placed the job of highway planning
on a social welfare basis.
"Lawlessness and Crime" will be
discussed by Alan J. Shields, associate
professor of sociology, and Dr. ; Donald
Hayhurst, professor of political science
will speak on "Political Implications of
the Urban Crisis."
Plans are now being made for the second
Study Day to be held next quarter.

Dean's excuses
unavailable
Dean's excuses will not be available
for tomorrow's Study Day, which begins
advance preparation for the 1969 Auburn
Conference on International Affairs
(ACOIA).
Dr. Taylor D. Littleton, dean of under­graduate
affairs, said Tuesday that no
excuses would be issued for Study Day,
although they had been available for the
program last year.
"The University should place emphasis
primarily on the classroom instructional
program," said Dr. Littleton. "I am in no
was trying to criticize ACOIA, and I
realize the value of such a program, but
I feel the major emphasis should remain
on the instructional program."
A lack of dean's excuses, Littleton
said, would probably not affect the success
of the Study Day program which will offer
background information for the March 31
through April 2 Conference on "Urban
Crisis."
The Study Day program has been ex­panded
to include two days, one each

Littleton said he felt con­fident
that enough students
would have free time to attend
at least one of the sessions
tomorrow. "If a student has
a class conflict with the ses­sion
and wants to attend, he
should discuss the probl ^'/n
with his instructor. This will
put the decision process at
the most meaningful level,
that of student-professor,"
Littleton said.
"The problem seems to be
due to a lack of co-ordination
with the academic program ot
the University on the part of
the students organizing the
program," Littleton stated.
' 'Although classroom in­struction

be the only one," said Mark
Marsh, Study Day chairman.
"In order to offer the stu­dent
a full education, the
University must encourage as
well as endorse programs
which provide educational
opportunities for the student.
I hope the absence of dean's
excuses will not affect the
success of the program in

indicated that a majority of
coeds favor a no-curfew ex­perimental
dorm. "Under such
a proposal, residents of the
dorm would be asked to sign
in and out for survey purposes
only," said Miss Tilden. "If
approved by AWS, the admini­stration
and Dean Cater, coeds
would receive keys to the
dorm and be allowed to come
and go anytime."
The residents of the dorm
would be under the same rules
which apply to all coeds, but
will not have a curfew. A

publicly aired their views on
the issue through the news
media.
Hollis said he did not plan
to officially report on his
visit to the city council.
"If someone else brings it
up and wants to pursue ..the
issue, I'll say as little a s
possible." said Hollis.
When Hollis first voiced
his opposition to the liquor
store Oct. 22, he pointed out
that Mayor Haygood had not
informed the council of his
visit to the Governor's of­fice.
' 'I regret that at the regular
council meeting on the evening
of Oct. 15. Mr. Haygood did
not take the opportunity to
advise the full council of his
actions of that day in this re-gard,"
said Hollis at that
time.
According to Haygood, his
Oct. 15 meeting with the Gov­ernor
to seek a liquor store
was authorized by a vote of
the previous city council two
years ago. The present coun­cil
has not voted on the mat­ter.
Haygood has pointed out
that Auburn could receive
$14-16,000 additional revenue
from state liquor tax monies
if a store is located in the
city limits.

Protestors threaten 'Puppy Burn'
By David Hill
Turmoil in the nation's universities has now spread
to Virginia as the Students for a Liberal Government
(SLG) at Virginia Commonwealth University arranged a
demonstration in which they threatened to burn a dog in
protest of the Vietnam war.
The Cavalier Daily, University of Virginia news­paper,
stated that "a member of the National Student
Association (NSA) met with members of the student
group to assay their interest in the war," and suggested
that the SLG go one step further than the mere sign-carrying,
slogan shouting demonstrations of the past
and indulge in NSA's newest form of protest-a "puppy
burn."
SLG then announced to the school's Council that they
would bum a puppy. After administration officials and
newsmen condemned the announcement, both groups were
informed that the puppy would not actually be burned,
but that the idea was only part of a symbolic, non-vio­lent,
peaceful protest.
Armco awards $1000 grant
to industrial design program
For the second year, the
industrial design program
here has been awarded a
$1000 grant from the Armco
Steel Corporation for a stu­dent
design investigation.
The topic for this year's
investigation is hydrospace.
Select junior and senior stu­dents
in industrial design
have volunteered to work on
the project entitled "Man in
the Sea" to develop suggested
systems and hardware which
may be used in the future in
the hydrospace industry. Sev­eral
areas for investigation
have been suggested, includ­ing
mining, travel, drilling,
shipping, living, recreation,
as well as food, drug and oil
production.
In addition to Auburn, Illi­nois
Institute of Technology,
Kansas University, and Long
Beach State College, will
participate in the project.
Each group will work inde­pendently
and then meet in
Houston, Texas, Feb 9-12
for critique sessions.
Auburn is presently' inves­tigating
ideas for the project.
Teams of three or four stu­dents
will work separately on
ideas and conceive patterns
and solutions for their area
of investigation. They will
also prepare models to be ex­hibited
in Houston.
Students will be working
under the direction of Mrs.
Eva Pfeil, chairman of the
industrial design program.
Library conferences set
here today, tomorrow
Francis J. Brook, Provost of VCU, commented on the
demonstration: "The taking of life to illustrate the value
of life is not in the tradition of logic which educational
men respect. We are confident that VCU students are
sufficiently mature so as not to be deceived by such-sensationalism."
i
MILITARY RECRUITERS AVOID CONFRONTATION
Military recruiters refused to go to San Francisco
State College recently when they were asked to share
space with anti-war groups.
Placement Director Vernon Walker had initiated a
plan for a "Military Information Day" on which both
military recruiters and war opponents could state their
cases. Walker formulated the plan in light of demonstra-;
tions against campus recruiters last year.
"We're not out to get into a debating society," the;
military refused to participate; our purpose is to recruit-
•.tudents," said one military spokesman. The recruiters;
tay albo have been influenced by the plan of about 150;
otudents to dump recruiters' tables into the street. '£
University Pres. Robert Smith said that he planned to^
review campus recruiting arrangements, because many-students
could not receive military information they
wanted.
LSU CONSIDERS ATMOSPHERE INNOVATION
Preliminary plans are being made at Louisiana State
University (LSU) to provide separate housing for honor
students of the College of Arts and Sciences. Begun ;
last year as an idea for a better dormitory arrangement,'
the plan would not separate honor students from the"
rest of the students, but would facilitate better study
conditions. .-
Benefits will include a seminar room available for-group
discussions and "bull sessions" which could
double as a reading room. In addition, a faculty member
or graduate student would replace a housemother.
The arrangement would create housing that would be
integrated with student life, ceasing to make a dorm
"just a place to live" but rather an enlargement of the
"academic atmosphere."
Twenty-eight school li­brarians
in East-Central
Alabama will be attending
the first of three two-day
conferences here titled
"Media and the School Li­brary"
today and tomorrow.
The conferences, the first
in this area concerned with
up-dating school libraries,
are being sponsored by the
Educational Media Center, a
project of the School of Edu­cation.
The concept of the school
library as a learning materials
center is not a new one, but
schools in Alabama have made
little progress in expanding
che services of the school
library to more than the con­ventional
book collection.
This purpose of the confer­ences
is to give librarians a
chance to learn of the leam^
ing materials centet concept
of school libraries, and will
help them plan for expansion
of their own libraries.
In this first conference,
librarians will leam how to
extend the services of the
library to learners and teach­ers,
making available both
book-type materials and other
audio-visual materials such

An excuse for ACOIA
Ever prepare an elaborate celebra­tion
and then have only a few guests
to show up?
| This year's Auburn Conference on
international Affairs (ACOIA) may be
in this situation. Though more than
$3,000 has been added to the ACOIA
Budget, making it one of the nation's
largest University symposiums, many
students may not be able to attend the
conference in March if dean's excuses
are not available.
| The administration seems to view
ihe program with mixed emotions.
JThere was no objection when the ad­ditional
money was allocated for
•ACOIA, raising the budget to $12,750,
$ut now an administrative official has
Jefused to issue dean's excuses for a
,«tudy day, a program designed to ac­quaint
students with the magnitude of
;<lThe Urban Crisis," topic of this
:year's program.
1 The University senate and adminis­trative
officials are also considering
-abolishment of dean's excuses. They
^contend excuses will interfere with'
%lasswork. (See stacy page one.)
The administration's desire to
place emphasis on the University's
instructional role is understandable,
but, in addition to teaching of events,
theories and concepts, the University
has the responsibility to acquaint
students with the issues and problems
that are now facing the nation and
the world. ACOIA, more than any
class lecture, makes students aware
of the complex problems, and chal­lenges
facing men today. ACOIA also
allows students to hear speakers who
are involved in shaping history.
Dr. Taylor Littleton, dean of under­graduate
studies has suggested that
the ACOIA committee try to schedule
events so that a minimum of prime
class time will be interrupted. This
suggestion is worthy of consideration
especially!regarding study days.
It is difficult to understand why the
administration could support ACOIA
financially, but refuse to assure a
University-wide means for students to
attend. The past policy of issuing ex­cuses
for classes except for one-hour
courses and those with sche­duled
tests has been adequate.
No doubt, some students have abused
the privilege-of dean's excuses, but
many studenfe need a dean's excuse
to attend a University-related educa­tional
activity. Dean's excuses for
events such as ACOIA should not be
totally abolished as long as class
attendance is compulsory.
AWS on the move
The Associated Women Students
(AWS) attempts to liberalize women's
rules are commendable.
The recently passed dress rule al­lows
coeds to use their own discre­tion
in choosing their dress provided
they dress "neatly and appropriately"
and don't wear shorts or slacks in the
library, union building, administrative
buildings or in the classroom. The
new rule, which will go into affect
winter quarter, will replace 16 minor,
complex and confusing restrictions.
The dress rule is the most recent
in a series of rule changes which have
given coeds additional freedom and
responsibility. Other recent rule
changes allowed 21 year old coeds to
live off campus and coeds to have
phones in their dormitory rooms.
The administration is wise to per­mit
these changes; Dean Katharine
Cater should be commended for recog­nizing
the validity in some of the
coeds' desire for responsible change.
Plans are also being studied for a
possible experimental dormitory for
women. Coeds living in the proposed
dorm would have no curfew. They
would be asked to sign in and out for
experimental purposes. The idea of
such a dormitory should be implement­ed
at least on a trial basis. Studies
of situations on other campuses are
helpful to a point, but actual experi­mentation
with rule innovations at
Auburn is necessary before such an
innovation can be evaluated here.
Rules for all coeds under 21 should
not be completely lifted. Coeds, es­pecially
freshmen, must learn to adapt
to college life before being allowed
to determine their own collegiate
mores. The rule liberalizations are al­lowing
coeds to demonstrate their
ability to meet their responsibilities
as young adults in a manner accept­able
to society.
A drive to remember Buddy
Saturday would have been a memor­able
day for Buddy Rutledge. His al­ma
mater, the University of Georgia,
will be playing Auburn for the South­eastern
Conference football champion­ship.
Buddy Rutledge will not be in
the press box announcing the game as
he did for eight years on the Auburn i
football network. He died last winter
of a heart attack.
Buddy won't be here, but the A-Club
and Omicron Delta Kappa (ODK)
are sponsoring a memorial fund drive
in the Auburn area for a Buddy Rut­ledge
wing of a proposed diabetic hos­pital
in Birmingham.
Rutledge was president of the Bir­mingham
Lay Diabetic Society when
he died. Much of his spare time was
raising funds for the hospital.
Continuing Rutledge's efforts for
hospital funds, the A-Club and ODK
will take donations at the "Burn the
Bulldog" pep rally tomorrow night.
There will be no soliciting during the
game Saturday, but donation canisters
will be placed at strategic points on
campus.
Buddy Rutledge loved Auburn. He
enhanced the school's academic and
athletic reputation throughout the
South, and he deserves to be remem­bered.
Buddy himself would probably
be pleased to have Auburn students
support one of his favorite causes,
the diabetic hospital.
Justice is a necessity
tor James Earl Ray
SyDoWd House/
Justice at its very best is needed in
Memphis, Tenn. when James Earl Ray
goes on trial for his life.
Only a person completely oblivious to the news of the last
eight months would be unaware that Ray is charged with first
degree murder in the April slaying of Dr. Martin Luther King
Jr.
Ray, who was arrested in
England after one of history's
most massive manhunts, was
scheduled to go on t r i al
Tuesday, but an abrupt change
in lawyers forced a delay in
the trial. The ease has at­tracted
worldwide attention
and press coverage, but it
has also posed a special
problem for the news media
of the United States.
Many recent court decisions
have sought to protect the
rights of suspected criminals
and included in these rulings
have been safeguards against
one-sided news stories which
might influence a jury. In
the Ray case, most news
organs have been exercising
extreme care in referring to
him as the "suspected as­sassin"
or the "accused
murderer." The addition of
the words "suspected" and
"accused" however, have
not been strong enough to
prevent the masses of people
in America and around the
world from believing that Ray
either killed King or played
a key role in a conspiracy.
Because of the extensive
and in-depth advance publi­city,
the basic question which
must be answered when Ray
does go on trial is "Will be
get a fair trial? Because of
the immense publicity sur­rounding
the case, that ques­tion
could be asked no matter
where the trial might be held.
In a sense, the American
concept of fair jury trials
will go on trial with Ray
when the judge raps the gavel
in Memphis. The 12 persons
who will serve as jurors will
probably have formed an
opinion about the case, but
they will have sworn that
their opinion is not beyond
able doubt is raised in the
trial.
Any trial involving a white
man and a Negro will have
strong racial overtones, but
the trial of Dr. King's al­leged
assassin will be one
of the most racially explo­sive
in history. All the world
will follow the occurrences
in Memphis..
An unspoken but very real
pressure in the case will be
the threat of violence if Ray
is acquitted or receives a
light sentence. Memphis might
immediately, and unjustly
become, in the eyes of
Negroes, the hated symbol
of a racist
there is no
South where
protection or
equality for the Negro. Vio­lence
could erupt across the
nation as it did last spring
after Dr. King's death.
But, despite the pres­sures
for quick punishment
of Dr. King's killer, who­ever
he may be, James Earl
Ray deserves a fair trial,
regardless of his background.
A fair trial, however, should
not be equated with a: quick
trial and a light verdict. If
the jury believes Ray is
the man who shot King, Ray
should be punished severely.
If there is a reasonable
doubt that Ray is not the
man who fired the shot, he
should be given every bene­fit
of the doubt.
James Earl Ray is accused,
but not convicted. He de­serves
a fair trial. At no
time in our history should
justice be more blind to race
or creed than now. The very
principles Dr. King ex­pounded
would give Ray a
fair trial. Dr. King's fol-reconsideration
if a reason- lowers can do no less.

One-quarter lease policy
best for studentsrowners
By Lyn Scarbrough
Once again, a dispute over mandatory
three-quarter leases in Auburn area housing
is brewing.
Last fall Magnolia Dormitories initiated three-quarter leases.
This move sparked discontent. However, many off-campus
dorms and apartments previously required such leases. Ap­parently
this off-campus housing policy prompted the Mag
Dorm move. received little response.
Previously when Magnolia A Student Senate commit-had
required one-quarter
leases, boys in housing with
three-quarter requirements
convinced many Mag resi­dents
to take over their un­expired
leases. When their
one-quarter lease expired,
many Mag boys, who were
predominantly freshmen,
moved into these other
places, allowing students to
relocate. This caused Mag-
Dormitories to be partially
empty, financially unstable
and competitive.
Last year one student sen­ator
met with community
leaders in an effort to bring
about one-quarter leases. He
talked to large volume dorm
and apartment renters, but

Prejudice and
the common
Ed. note: This is one of a series of edi­torial
articles reprinted from other publi­cations.
The following column, written
by Edwin A. Roberts, Jr., appeared in
the November 11, 1968 issue of The
National Observer. It is reprinted in full
with permission of The National Observer.
A story almost too small to be written
can put a keen edge on a story almost
too big to be reckoned with.
In a taxi cab the other day the driver
talked continuously about the New York
Giants football team-how he "lived and
died" every time the team played, how
loyal he was to his favorites even when
they had a losing season or a very bad
game. "I love the Giants," the cabbie
said, "and the longest time for me is the
time between seasons. They can take
away my cab or my wife, but they better
not take away my Giants."
These words, as innocuous as a fair
catch, came back to me that evening.
We were sitting in the living room of Bill
Mark's apartment on 57th Street-Bill
and his wife Eleanor, Willie Williams,
Freeman White, Jim Holifield, Willie
Young and myself. Mr. Mark, the offi­cial
photographer of the New York Giants,
was showing color slides of recent foot­ball
games. Messrs. Williams, White,
Holifield and Young are Giant players.
At one end of the living room, on a
balcony that serves as an office, Mr.
Mark attended the projector that was
flashing huge images on the white wall
opposite. The pictures, which froze the
players in the midst of their violent ballet,
were so large and clear that expressions
of extreme effort and sudden pain could
easily be read on the sweating faces.
The comments of the four Giants in
the audience were polite-almost curi­ously
so-until one or more of those pres­ent
were spotted up there on the wall. The
players were quick to chide each other
("There's old Willie Young just standing
there watching the play") but they did
not seem to want to say anything criti­cal,
even good-naturedly critical, about
any player who wasn't present. A man's
livelihood is not a laughing matter.
The athletes' talk was rich in the argot
of the sports pages. "There's Tucker
Frederickson, the workhorse of the
Giants," said Willie Williams, a defensive
idol worship—
and heroes
back, of his ball-carrying teammate. |
Asked about the quality of competition |
in the National Football League, Willie
declared: "On any given day, any NFL j
team can beat any other NFL team." 1
Commenting on a player for the Wash-ington
Redskins, the articulate Freeman |
White observed that "that Pat Fischer |
has a lot of heart.'' f§
A man is what he reads, and when
you make your living playing pro foot-' |
ball, you spend a lot of time reading the §
sports pages. The players said their
wives are maintaining scrapbooks for 1
them, and it's not hard to imagine the
athletes one day showing their notices -
to grandchildren and telling good stories
about how it was to play for the football
Giants in Yankee Stadium.
When the slide show was over, the |
conversation changed to other things.
Willie Williams is a photography buff 1
specializing in 16mm. sound movies, and
he wanted some advice from Mr. Mark |
on buying a 35mm. ; still camera with a ||
telescopic lens. Then we talked about the |
troubles of Israel, about horse racing, §
about Rosemary's Baby, and about phy- I
sical conditioning. 1
§
The discussion was unexceptional and .
pleasant. Then, at 9:45, the athletes rose 1
to leave. They had to get to bed early, i
they said. Throughout the evening they gi
had sipped nothing stronger than milk. I
"You have to take care of yourself,"Jim |f
Holifield said. "You only hurt yourself ||
and the team if you don't."
When the players left the apartment
building, they stepped out onto 57th
Street, near the busy intersection that's I
dominated by Carnegie Hall, and they
started walking, perhaps to a car they §
had parked or perhaps to the subway.
They were out of uniform now-anony-mous-
and yet they were the same high­ly
trained, gifted athletes whose names 1
were known to millions of Sunday after- I
noon TV viewers. It was as they walked
down the street that the thought, the sour
realization, struck me.
Famous they were and heroes they |
were. But not the most rabid, Giant-lov- j
ing cabbie, even in polynational New J
York City, was likely to stop and give ||
four giant black men a ride home.
tee, headed by Rob Hicks, is
now studying leasing policies
and housing conditions. Hicks
has contacted several owners
and managers and they have
apparently indicated no will­ingness
to alter . lease re­quirements.
They contend it would re­quire
too much time and mon­ey
to keep up with students
relocating each quarter. They
claim loans and mortgages
require that housing be full
at all times to assure loan
payment.
These contentions are not
adequate to offset the need
for a one-quarter lease pol­icy.
Students have many
justifiable reasons for de­siring
to live in a location
only one quarter.
Poor studying facilities,
incompatible roommates,
scholastic problems, frater­nity
obligations and finan­cial
inability to uphold lease
agreements are all valid rea­sons.
Some students are on a
co-op program. Three-quarter
leases often make it difficult
for them to find adequate
housing.
Some persons argue that in
other cities full-year leases
are required. However, they
fail to realize that these
cities are not small college
towns. Most persons in larger
cities have permanent resi­dence,
employment and a
wider variety of housing.
Students should be better
informed on facilities leasing
for one quarter and on univer­sity
housing policies. Per­haps
city leaders should study
enactment of legal action re­quiring
one-quarter leases.
Students with housing com­plaints
should report them to
the Student Senate committee.
As a last resort, some sug­gest
students could refuse to
live in three-quarter lease
housing. There are now 600
vacancies in the Auburn area,
so there are other available
places.
Admittedly, owners have
no legal obligation to lower
lease requirements. Apparent­ly
dorm and apartment owners
have students somewhat
"over a barrel."
However, construction of
full apartment complexes
with recreational facilities at
a comparably inexpensive
rate could cause a great
drain • from efficiency-type
housing. The potential effect
of such housing can not be
overemphasized. Apparently
two such complexes are plan­ned
for the near future.
Owners and managers should
realize that such construction
could leave them disasterous-ly
"over the barrel." If own­ers
are not obligated to heed
students needs, certainly stu­dents
will not be obligated to
assure owners' financial suc­cess
by filling their housing.
It is most advisable for
all concerned that immediate
steps be taken to remedy this
problem.
Win or lose..»
Wallace will
try it again
in 72 election
By James Thornton
George Wallace gave the
people a choice on Nov. 5 -
and they rejected it.
The fightin' judge from
Clayton, Ala. went down in
dismal defeat on election
day 1968 in the thus far
greatest battle of his life.
Wallace came
into the elec­tion
home
stretch a
distant third
after the fi­nal
ballots
had been
counted and
Republican
Nixon eked
out a hairs-breadth
victory over Demo­cratic
Vice president Hubert
Humphrey.
Wallace won five Deer
South states and their 45
electoral votes, falling far
below his Airerican Indepen­dent
Party expectations.
He had campaigned, tell­ing
the voters "like it is"
and they, in turn, told him
how it was.
But the election is his­tory
and there's no glory in
saying "I told you so" or
in gloating over Wallace's
defeat.
For George is now far
more powerful than when he
first started his state-by-state
campaigns to place the
AIP banner on the ballots
of all 50 states. At the be­ginning
of the Wallace move­ment
AIP workers had to
start from scratch.
Now Wallace has a poli­tical
organization in every
state. The strength of these
organizations is another mat­ter.
But he has built a foun­dation
and chances are great
that he will continue to build
on that foundation for the
1972 presidential election.
After all, some 9% million
Americans voted for Wallace
and that's a pretty good
foundation for any politician.
No, the fightin' judge is
not through by a long shot.
Wallace also has a powerful
political base in the South
and he will venture forth to
try his luck again on the na­tional
scene.
The next four years o f the
Nixon administration will be
closely observed by Wallace
and his associates and George
will be quick to pounce on
the errors and failing of the
Republicans.
Nixon in turn will keep an
eye on Wallace and the South
for the third party candidate
almost cost Nixon the elec­tion
this time. Nixon will do
his best not to antagonize
conservatives during the next
four years and thus try to
undermine Wallace's influ­ence.
If present domestic and
foreign policies are not dras­tically
altered under the Re­publican
administration, Wal­lace
will jump a t the chance
to remind Americans that
there is not a "dime's worth
of difference" between the
two major parties.
Whatever the future of Wal­lace
and his American Inde­pendent
Party, the fact re­mains
that he has made a
tremendous impact on the
American political scene.
As Sander Vanocur, NBC
newsman, said during a
speech at Auburn earlier
this quarter, Wallace would
and did fashion the rhetoric
of the 1968 presidential cam­paign.
In other words, Wallace
had the Republican and Dem­ocratic
candidates running
scared; not so much in that
Nixon or Humphrey thought
Wallace would win but in
that Wallace could determine
the winner.
Whether Wallace will win
in 1972 or in any future elec­tion
is not a matter for spec­ulation
at this time.
I doubt that Wallace will
run for governor or senator
in 1970, even though he
could win any election in
Alabama if he chose to run.
Most likely he will bide his
time and work and plan toward
1972.
But George will rise again
and the self-made former
governor of Alabama holds
the key to another interesting
and entertaining presidential
election year-win or lose.

Letters to the editor
5- THE AUBURN PIJUNSMAN November 14, 1968
A rt students: 'not a part of the university'
Editor, The Plainsman:
Last week's Plainsman
brought to light certain is­sues
concerning poor facili­ties
in the art department. In
that same paper the opinion
was expressed by Bill Por­ter,
an architecture student,
that the fine arts students
are somehow responsible for
their plight because of their
failure to work with the rest
of the school.
The Auburn art student
does not feel that he is a
part of the university. The
general environment and the
attitude of other students
make him feel like an out­sider.
The Auburn Plainsman
which proposes to be the
voice of the student body
during the A.W.S. dress rules
debate last spring referred
to the art students partici­pating
as "the pseudo-hip­pie
art element on campus."
Contempt is further shown
in the form of harassment and
threats by other students
from time to time. The fresh­man
entering an art curricu­lum
finds inadequate equip­ment
and a cold atmosphere
the tools provided him in re­turn
for his tuition fees and
his parents' tax money.
This attitude of other stu­dents
is encouraged by the
fact that the administration
fails to provide adequate
recognition for the arts. It
seems to be the official
policy that "art is not one
of our serious interests, and
the art students are just a
bunch of freaks we don't
know what to do with."
If the art student isn't
showing any interest in his
school, it is probably be­cause
he is afraid. If the art
students looks strange, it may
be because his environment
lacks diversity. The art stu­dent
who has been to colleges
and universities elsewhere
across the country has dis­covered
environments incom­parably
more conducive to
creativity. In his home state
he is treated like an outlaw.
Because the arts are not
emphasized at the state's
universities, these are turning
out graduates to populate the
state who are not culturally
interested. In turn, the state
of Alabama is being perpet-

ually culturally stifled.
The school which has de­veloped
one of the world's
best fish hatcheries also has
one of the best-staffed art
departments in this area of
the country. It ought not have
one of the most poorly equip­ped
art departments.
Ex-Govemor George Wal­lace
has assured us that
"Alabama college students
are as cultured and refined
as those at Harvard." This
is all the more remarkable
when we consider that the
roof of the drama theatre is
falling in, and the students
are practically falling out
the windows of the music
school. However, Wallace's
statement i s hardly convinc­ing
to anyone who has been
led to believe that art, music
and drama are basic to cul­ture
and who yet knows that
the facilities for these things
are literally falling apart at
Auburn.
Whether or not creativity
flourishes under adversity,
it is not the job of the uni­versity
to provide adversity,
but rather opportunity and a
free atmosphere.

Student criticizes
Lehman column
Editor, The Plainsman:
Mr. Lehman seems to at­tribute
Auburn's lack of an
"academic atmosphere" to
student apathy. Not so.
Apathy implies a "know­ledge
of and unconcern for."
It should be obvious that
only the latter of these ad­jectives
can rightfully be
characteristic of Auburn stu­dents
en masse. Perhaps
scorn should accompany such
linguistic debates over the
merit of a straw. '
But Mr. Lehman's use of
'irregardless,' a non-existent
meaningless bit of jargon,
underscores his lack of under­standing
not only of linguis­tics
(which in itself is no
big thing), but moreover, his
lack of perception.of the pro­blem
he seeks to. explore. For.
indeed, how can a student
be accused of 'apathy' to­wards
something to which he
has never been exposed?
Rather than crucify what
is admittedly an unconcerned
student body, let us rather
direct our ire at the source of
Auburn's distemper.'; This is
the Alabama educational
system. A university is but
a small part of this mono­lithic
giant of cultural dis­integration.

Attacks on Individuals'
termedyirrational'
Editor, The Plainsman:
I see no excuse for the
irrational attacks on human
rights that have occurred
lately on the Auburn campus.
Within the last few weeks
two physical attacks were
made by groups of students
upon one or two other stu­dents
who have long hair and
dare to dress according to
their own taste.
The term "hippie" seems
to some non-thinkers to be
the only classification for
such individuals; since "hip­pies"
are different from the
rank and file Auburn confor­mist
they suffer rudeness,
exclusion and now physical
attack by their peers.
It is necessary that we as
Auburn students recognize
the intolerance present with­in
our student body. The si­tuation
is despicable be­cause
recent incidents of
violence represent the bitter
thoughts harbored by many
students against any non-con­formists.
For each visible
sign of malice, there are
many more under-currents of
malicious comments and
thoughts.
Auburn is always slow to
grasp the trends of the total
American society (for exam­ple,
side burns, last year a
mark of "hippiedom," this
year are definitely "in"). I t 's
time Auburn realized that the
person who looks or acts
"different" may only be a
person brave enough to exer­cise
his individuality in an
atmosphere where such ex-pressions
are in the minority.

The youth of our genera­tion

coming to accept and respect
uniqueness in thought and
personality among their
peers. It is my hope that Au­burn
will catch up with this
facet of progress and become
willing to understand, and
ultimately admire, those who
dare to "be their own man."
Human rights is the sub­ject
of scrutiny on most col­lege
campuses, and I think
the subject deserves very
close scrutiny and criticism
on our campus today.

Brooks comments
on McMillan letter
Editor, The Plainsman:
Dr. Vallery was invited to
speak by the Human Rights
Forum in an effort to clear up
some of the questions con­cerning
student discipline on
campus.
Yes, Miss McMillan, the
students were upset, not
rabid" as you stated, with
the performance of Dr. Val­lery,
because instead of clear­ing
up the questions he suc­ceeded
in making the issues
even more confused. Dr.
Vallery constantly evaded
questions and gave vague
answers to the ones he did
try to answer.
The Human Rights Forum
is very concerned with human­ity,
but when someone who
is supposed to answer our
questions does as poor a job
as Dr. Vallery we have every
right to be upset. Again I
stress the word upset and not
the word "rabid" Miss Mc­Millan
used.
However, I do feel that Dr.
Vallery is in the wrong field
as an "educator." He should
be a politician, because he
can evade questions and give
vague answers as well as
any politician I have ever
seen.

Not necessarily.
Not at Du Pont.

We have a practice called
"planned mobility," a kind of
intramural job hopping. It
means you don't go into a training
program. You go to work—at
different growth jobs that broaden
you professionally, benefit you
personally, and help you find the
specific field you want to grow in.
Here's how it worked for
Jim Davis, an M.E. from the
University of Pittsburgh:
For Jim, it added up to six
assignments in six years.
This may be some kind of a
record. But he didn't
waste time. Every day of
it was solid profit.
"My first assignment was
installation of improved polymer
transfer systems," says Jim.
"Then some research. A patent
was issued on my device to
apply steam to a running
threadline. Next I was a college
recruiter. After that I worked
on a five-year forecast of the
company's engineering needs.
Now I'm in a cost

Title, bowl bid, up for grabs in Tiger-'Dog tilt
By BILL BEEMER
For the second week in a
row, the Auburn Tigers
play the fifth-ranked team in
the nation, this time for a
possible Southeastern Con­ference
championship and a
probable bid to the Orange
Bowl Game on New Year's
night.
Auburn, leading the SEC
with a 4-0 record, needs a
victory over the Bulldogs,
4-0-1 in the Conference, in
order to assure at least a tie
for the league title. Georgia
will win the title outright if
the 'Dogs defeat the Tigers.
Mississippi, 3-1,in the SEC,
has a chance for a tie for the
championship, providing they
defeat Tennessee and Missi­ssippi
State, their remaining
opponents, and Auburn defeats
Georgia and loses to Alabama.

Let them eat cake
JrJL
I remember when I ran in the Cake Race.
I was nervously walking around in circles outside
the Field House waiting for the thing to start when I
spotted a guy who was in my Air Force ROTC drill
flight. When under stress it is always comforting to
have someone to talk to, so we struck up a conversation
in order to pass the time.
He asked me how I was going to run the 2.8-mile
course. He said he didn't have much experience at this
sort of thing and was unsure of how to go about it.
I hadn't really thought much about it. My experience
was limited to three years of high school track as a
mediocre quarter-miler. But he'd asked for advice, so
I gave it, and we wound up agreeing to pace each other.
Things finally got started, with a rush of stumbling
freshmen male bodies. I spent a couple of seconds evad­ing
falling fellow runners and looked up to find that my
friend had disappeared.
The next time I saw him was at the finish. I was
walking around in circles again, this time in an effort
to get my breath. ;
He came up and asked, "How'd you do?"
I'd finished 190th-and-something, which I didn't think
was too bad, considering over 700 people ran that day.
And I told him so, then asked him how he finished.
"Twenty-fourth," he said.
He ate cake that day. I didn't, but I still felt good
about finishing where I did.
Three years ago
That was three years ago. As far as Cake Races go,
it may have been the greatest, because if you're going
to judge the relative merits of the Race, the best way
to do so is on the basis of participation. After all, that's
what the Cake Race is all about, getting as many fresh­men
men as possible to participate and thus bolstering
the spirit of the whole campus.
If this yardstick is an accurate one, the Cake Race
may be going the way of the rat hat, not walking through
the main gate to Samford Park, not walking on the grass,
etc.
In 1965, the year I ran, 723 people participated. In the
last two years, only a little more than 1,000 freshmen
have run in the Race.
This would indicate that the Race, like the rat hat,
may be on the way out as an Aubum tradition.
When I first thought about coming to Auburn, back when
I didn't know a grade-point-average from my left foot, I
knew about the Cake Race. It was mentioned in every
piece of literature sent me by Auburn, and it meant one
thing to me: tradition.
You're supposed to have traditions in college. A lot
of people, I suppose, will say that traditions should go,
that they hinder progress. I don't know, maybe they're
right, but without a tradition here and there, college just
wouldn't seem like college.
Local merchants aren't helping the situation much.
Last reports had the ODK Cake Race committee still
searching for someone to provide them with enough cakes
to present to the first 25 finishers.
So, the Cake Race may be headed for a middle-aged
grave. If it dies in its prime, at least it won't be my
fault. I did my bit a few years ago.
The responsibility of getting the race to old age falls
to the freshmen. It's all yours on Wednesday, guys.
Irish luck
A lot of people were griping about the Associated
Press football ratings released Monday night. Thought
Auburn should have had a better rating than 12th.
I was satisfied, except for one item. Notre Dame,
with a 6-2 record similar to Auburn's, was ranked ninth.
What has Notre Dame done to be ranked ninth in the
nation?
Not much.
True, the Irish defeated Oklahoma, a fine team which
presently sports a 5-2 record. But that's about it. In
their five other victories, the men from South Bend have
run up impressive scores, but over teams which have a
combined record of 8-32.
In its six victories, Auburn has defeated teams whose
combined records are 20-23-4. Among these teams are
squads which were ranked ninth, 20th, and fifth at the
times the Tigers played them. And Auburn has also
beaten a Clemson team which appears headed for its
fourth straight Atlantic Coast Conference title.
I guess that's the "luck of the Irish."
amount of experience prior
to this year, but Charles
Whittemore and Ken Shaw
have progressed nicely at the
split end slot. Tailback-flanker
Kent Lawrence is
also an excellent receiver and
he has the speed (9.4 in the
100) to break the play wide
open.
Georgia is not hurting for
running backs in any sense.
Fullback Brad Johnson is a
powerful runner who was kept
from all SEC honors for the
past two years only because
he was second string- behind
the great Ronnie Jenkins. As
a starter this year, Johnson
has lived up to expectations.
Aiding Johnson in the back-field
are Bruce Kemp, Law­rence,

holes for the backs, and the

times.
When you mention Georgia

6-5, 245-pound defensive
tackle is threatening to make
more than' one all-America
team this year. He is an ex­cellent
pass rusher who de­lights
in nailing the enemy

The 'Dogs are strong behind
the line also. The two most
notable defensive backs are jtefi
linebacker Happy Dicks and
safety Jake Scott. Dicks is
one of the prime reasons that
the Bulldogs are so tough to
run against. He is a deadly
tackier who rarely is fooled.
Scott is definitely a threat to
make all-America.

Wednesday's Race
may unveil future star
By EARL BEATTY
Will this year's ODK-Wilbur Hutsell Cake Race produce
a future track star?
On Wednesday the 40th annual Cake Race will beheld.
The first annual race dates back to 1929whenayoung
man, Emmitt McQueen, finished 14th and several years
later set a Southern Conference record in the two-mile
run.
History proves that a number of the competitors have
gone on to track stardom. During the 40-year period, 14
of the individual winners eventually became varsity track
lettermen.
The 1946 winner, Whitey Overton, made the 1948 Olym­pic
team.
Due to new campus construction the 2.8-mile course has
been altered from time to time, but for the last 16 years it has
been run over the same route. The present record, 14:30.8,
was set in 1952 by Reuben Finney of Pi Kappa Alpha
fraternity.
The initial race in 1929 had 265 recorded finishers.
The greatest number of recorded finishers was in 1965,
when 723 struggled across the line. Exact statistics
show that during the 39 previous exhibitions some 15,030
have managed to finish.

By TOMMY LUCAS
And JIMMY SILAVENT
Last Monday on a snow
covered field where fumbles
and interceptions were pre­valent
the Auburn freshmen
brought their record to 3-1
at the expense of Missis-issippi
State's frosh, defeat­ing
the Bullpups, 30-7.
Halfway through the first
quarter Auburn struck with a
23-yard field goal by wing-back
Daryl Johnson after an
Auburn drive was stalled at
the State six.
RECOVERY
A fumble recovery by line­backer
Phil Cochran then
gave the Tiger Cubs the ball
on the State 44. Eight plays
later quarterback Pat Sullivan
rambled four yards for Au­burn's
first touchdown. John­son
converted, making the
score 10-0 at the end of the
first quarter. . .
In the second quarter a
fumble recovery by end Tom
Roberts put the State fresh­men
back in the game on the
Auburn 26. Two plays later
quarterback Steve Natale
threw 26 yards to end John
Bradshaw for State's only
touchdown.
CUB EXPLOSION
But the Tiger Cubs would
not let the score stand and
exploded for three touch­downs
in the final quarter.
With 13:11 left in the final
quarter, Sullivan scooted
around right end from four
yards out.
Trie Cubs were right back
in business after a poor punt
which gave them the ball on
State's 26. Eight plays later
David Shelby went off left
tackle from three yards out
for the Cubs' third touchdown
of the afternoon. Johnson con­verted.
Again an unyielding Cub
defense, led by linebacker
Cochran, forced the Bullpups
to punt. This time the Baby
Tigers started on their own
43. Seven plays later the Cubs
hit paydirt for the fourth and
final time on a three-yard
sprint around left end by
quarterback Sullivan for his
third touchdown of the after­noon.
Johnson converted again.

Win overUT
'great effort9
By LARRY BLAKENEY
Of the Auburn Tigers
Again the Auburn Tigers
have given a supreme team
effort to thoroughly whip
another strong Southeastern
Conference opponent.
Their victory over Ten­nessee
was the third in suc­cession
in the third of the big
five games which comprise
Auburn's home stretch. The
two remaining teams are Geor­gia,
which trounced Florida,
51-0, and Alabama, which
eased past Louisiana State,
16-7.
Coach Ralph Jordan made
a statement after Auburn's
big win that it was the great­est
team effort he has ever
coached in his 18 years at
Auburn.
GREAT EFFORT
It was truly a great effort
by the Tigers, but the fact
remains, the Georgia Bulldogs
are coming to town Saturday
to try to knock the Tigers
from their position atop the
SEC. The team that wins this
game will likely be the SEC
champ. Even more than a title
is riding on this contest,
this being the major bowl bid
which will probably be award­ed
the team which wins this
tremendously big game.
FIRST CHANCE
This is the first time any
of the present Auburn players
on this team have had a chance
to play in an SEC champion­ship
game. These Tigers are
hungry for this opportunity
and aware of their opposition.
The past two seasons Geor­gia
has been the winner in
this rivalry which dates back
to 1892. Two years ago the
Tigers led, 13-0, at halftime
only to have the Bulldogs
come from behind to win in
the second half. Last year
in Athens, Georgia led 3-0 at
halftime and pulled away to a
17-0 win in the second half.
Georgia has been noted as
a second half team. This is
something to watch in the
game Saturday.

Campbell --a big man
getting bigger each week
By TIM WALDROP
David Campbell is a big
man getting bigger. Au­burn's
6-4, 230-pound de­fensive
left tackle is' 'sock­ing
it" to opposing quar­terbacks
and running backs

Recognition for perfor­mances
against recent op­position
shows his work is
not unnoticed. Against Mis­sissippi
State, he received
the team's "Headhunter"
award for most tackles.
For his Miami play, Camp­bell
received national recog­nition
as Lineman of the Week
by Sports' Illustrated maga­zine,
and was also cited by
the Associated Press as the
best lineman in the South­east.
RUNNER-UP
And for his defense against
Florida, Campbell was run­ner-

guard, Charles Rosenfelder,

This brought Campbell to

directly across the line from
our man Campbell. It's no se­cret
that Tennessee couldn't
run inside our tackles.
And, for the second time
in three weeks, AP selected
Campbell as Southeastern
Lineman of the Week.
Campbell came to Auburn
on scholarship from Dora High
School near Sumiton, Ala­bama.
There he played foot­ball,
basketball, and base­ball
for four years.
"I won my scholarship
mostly for my linebacking,"
said Campbell.
But he remembers "My sen­ior
year I played everything
on the team except center."
Campbell's brother, a fresh­man
then (now a senior), was
the center.
"When I first came to Au­burn
and played for the fresh­men
team, I was third string
tackle, said Campbell. "I was
too skinny, but I started grow­ing
and made the first team
before the season was over."
LAST YEAR
Last year as a sophomore,
Campbell played second team
behind veteran Charlie Col­lins.
Now a junior, Campbell
is a much improved ball­player.
He says his most
important job is "to follow
the play action and keep the
offensive guard off linebacker
Mike Kolen."
"His lack of experience
hindered him earlier this sea­son,
but he'scorning on strong
now," Campbell's coach, Joe
Connally, commented.
"Campbell is the ideal size
for the type defense we play.
His height and strength are
fine assets for his position.
He plays our defense well
and comes through when we
need the big play."
"His greatest asset, and
one which is rare for a man
of his size, is his excellent
speed," said Connally.

By MIKE ANDERSON
Can Mississippi, with Archie Manning at the helm, out-man
Tennessee, or will the Vols bounce back from their
devastating loss to Auburn and defeat the Rebels in
their annual showdown battle?
This year's game at Knoxville, Tenn. will mean a lot
to both teams, as a Mississippi victory will keep the
Rebs in the running for a Southeastern Conference co-championship
if Auburn defeats Georgia, and a Big Orange
win will keep the Vols moving toward a lucrative post­season
bowl-bid.
The Rebels have only a 21-7 loss to Georgia marring
their Conference record and have defeated Kentucky,
Around the SEC
31-14, Alabama, 10-8, and Louisiana State, 27-24. Vic­tories
over the Vols and Mississippi State would put
them 5-1 in the Conference, 8-2 overall, and in good
shape for a bowl bid, even if they don't win a share of
the championship.
The Rebs' prize quarterback, "Super" Manning, makes
Ole Miss go when he's directing the attack. Last week,
he was needed only long enough to build a 17-0 lead
over Chattanooga, after which the Rebs coasted to a
38-16 win over the number three small college team in
the nation. Though Manning was hampered by a rib injury,
he threw one TD pass and led two other drives before
being benched by Reb coach John Vaught.
Complementing Manning in the backfield are two hard
running backs, Stan Hindman and Bo Bowen.
Tennessee is still a very fine football team, with an
excellent offense and a brutal defense, a defense that
actually gave very little to Auburn, except for a few
"bomb" type plays.
The Volunteers' Bubba Wyche is an excellent quarter-
Dack who r u n s and passes and scrambles well.
Both Volunteer touchdowns against Auburn were scored
m broken plays when Wyche really had to scramble under
tremendous pressure, and both times he was truly racked
as he threw the ball.
TOUGH DEFENSE
The Tennessee defense, led by linebackers Steve
Kiner, Jack Reynolds and tackle Dick Williams, will be
very tough on the ground, but will have to watch for the
long pass bombs. Actually, the Vol defense played very
well against Auburn, allowing only 60 yards rushing, 124
passing and stealing three interceptions.
The game is in Knoxville and the Big Orange will still
be smarting from the Auburn debacle, ready to make
amends for that loss. Also, although Tennessee beat
Ole Miss last year, the memory of past losses to M i s s i-ssippi
should give them even more desire to win. Des­pite
Manning and a lot of desire on Ole Miss' part, Ten­nessee,
with Wyche and company, should prevail this time.
AROUND SEC
Around the rest of the SEC: LSU will defeat Miss.
State; Alabama's Tide will overrun the Miami Hurricanes;
Kentucky will give hopeless Florida more than it can
take, and Vanderbilt is idle.

Title playoff coming up
By ED RUZIC
Auburn's fall intramural
program went into its final
weeks with most of the foot­ball
and volleyball leagues
decided and the champion­ship
playoffs in the making.
Beta Theta Pi, Delta Chi,
Alpha Tau Omega, and Phi
Gamma Delta are engaged in
a double elimination playoff
for the football crown, while
Sigma Nu, Beta Theta Pi, Phi
Kappa Tau, and Alpha Psi
start the volleyball playoff
next Tuesday.
In Independent play, Cam-
|pus Inn, Rejects, APhiO, BSU,
and Wesley are battling it out
in what has turned out
to be some evenly matched
competition. In ^Dorjnj.play,
Division P-2, Div. G, and
Agronomy and Soils are
matched, with the winner play­ing
the winner of the former
group of Independents. Inde­pendent
volleyball has another
playing date, but their cham­pionship
will also start next
Tuesday.
With the volleyball play­offs
starting next week, a few
words concerning this sport
are appropriate. Volleyball
is considered a minor sport,
but the winner receives 150
valuable sports points. In
other words, an organization
that doesn't place in football
is still hanging in there by
winning volleyball.
The Sigma Nu's beat last
year's champions, Delta Chi,
to win League 1 and are my
favorites to win everything
(that's off the record). Beta
Theta Pi whipped ATO to
take the League 2 crown and
also has a hot shot chance at
the all-sports trophy. So far,
this has been the year of the
Beta and maybe they will
come through in volleyball.
Phi Kappa Tau tore their
only competition to shreds
when they beat Phi Gamma
Delta, to win in League 3.
Even though Alpha Psi field­ed
a raggamuffin football
team, their volleyball team
was just the opposite while
winning all their games h
League 4 and gaining a berth
in the playoff.
COACH EVANS SPEAKS
If you happened to be at
the sports meeting this past He has been present for all
Monday evening you would
have heard Coach R.K.Evans,
director of men's intramurals,
say, "This has been one of
the best organized quarters
we've had in 27 years."
The reason Coach Evans
has been able to say this is
due to the work of four stu­dents
who have done out­standing
jobs in their respec­tive
jobs.
Ned Scogners has taken
care of all playing fields and
as Coach Evans says, "By
far, Ned has kept the fields
in better condition than any­body
we have evei had."
Scogners is also the student
director of intramurals and
chairman of the executive
committee as appointed by
the president of the student
body.
Tom Ezell is in charge of
all officials. He is in charge
of officials' clinics, appoint­ing
officials to games, and
helping in difficult decisions
on the field. As can be seen,
Tom has a more difficult ex­tra-
money job than most.
Steve Yother is in charge
of the Student Ac Building.

FIRST AUBURN FOE
Auburn's opponent this Sat­urday,
the University of Geor­gia,
was the Tigers' first
football opponent in a game
played in 1892. Auburn won
its contest with the Bulldogs,
10-0. The Plainsmen also
defeated. Georgia Tech, 26-0,
last year. However, Auburn
lost its other two games, gal­ling
to Trinity, 34-6, and
North Carolina, 64-0. Georgia
dominates this rivalry by the
slim margin of 33-32-6.

A shaver that gives
almost twice the shaves
percharge
is worth some study.
Our Rechargeable 45CT (below) gives
you 3 weeks of close shaves on a single charge.
(Which is nearly twice as much as any other
rechargeable.)
And it gives you the choice of using the
cord, or not.
It also has a lot of things in common
with our new Tripleheader Speedshaver® 35T.
Both shavers have 18 rotary blades set
in three new 'floating' Microgroove™ heads,
that follow the contours of your face.
And thev both shave you as close or
closer than a blade in 2 out of 3 shaves. (As
tested in an independent lab by some very in­dependent
men.)
They also have some extras that make
shaving a lot easier. A
separate pop-up trim­mer,
snap-open clean­ing,
a handy on/off
switch, and a 110/220
voltage selector for
travel use.
Whichever you
choose, you can't get
a closer shave.

THE SUPER HITS VOL.3 SAM & DAVE
In last week's pickings, Ed "Leader of the pack"
Ruzic increased his lead over the rest of the pitiful prog-nosticators
with his 7-3 record. Bill Beemer remains in
second place and Richard Wittish seems firmly entrenched
(he's in a rut) in third.
Editor David "Humongous" Housel posted a 7-3 mark
to vault him into a tie with Jim Parker and the Old Pro
for fourth. Last week's guest Jimmy Bryan also turned in
a 7-3 slate, but the guest slot is still last with a 43-26-1
season record.
Guest pickers for this week are Shirley Hornfeck and
Linda Higginbotham, typesetters for Ye Olde Plainsman.

Baroness Maria von Trapp
to speak in Student Ac Monday
9 - T H E AUBURN PLAINSMAN November 14, 1968
On the screen Julie An­drews
captivated millions
as Baroness Maria von
Trapp in "The Sound of
Music." The real Baroness,
whose adventures as the
mother and leader of the
world-famous Trapp Family
Singers served as the in­spiration
for the long-run hit
musical, will appear on cam­pus
Monday night.
Well known is the story of
how young Maria, a novice
in Austria, was loaned by
the Abbey to the Salzburg
household of the World War I
naval hero, widower Baron von
Trapp, as governess for his
seven motherless children.
How the Baron fell in love
with her and made her his
wife, and how, in open de­fiance
of the Nazi invaders of
their homeland, the Trapps
and their family priest fled
Austria, leaving all their an
cestral wealth and personal
belongings behind them to
build a new life for them­selves
in a new world-all
this served as the basis for
the Rodgers and Hammerstein
musical.
Starting afresh, Baroness
von Trapp and the ten Trapp
children become the Trapp
Family Singers, appearing in
the colorful costumes of their

Church music and folk songs
of many lands. The group
toured the world for 20 years,
winning acclaim in more than
2,000 concerts all over the
United States, Europe,
Australia and New Zealand.
Today, the von Trapp child­ren
are married and scattered
around the world. The Baro­ness
is the only one of the
family left in the Alpine-styled
farmhouse bought in
1942 in New England, but the
house is seldom empty.
The Cinderella story of her
life formed the basis of the
Baroness's first book, "The
Story of the Trapp Family
Singers." In addition, she
wrote "A Family on Wheels,"
recounting the further adven­tures
of her singing family
on their world concert tours;
"Yesterday, Today, and For­ever,"
the story of the Trapps'
devout religious life; and
"Around the Year with the
Trapp Family," a book of
games, recipes, songs and
folk customs associated with
the various feasts of the
Catholic Church calendar as
observed in old world tradi­tion
by the Trapps in their
new-world home.
Many honors have come to
Baroness Maria von Trapp.
Pope Pius XII bestowed upon
her the "Benemerenti Medal"
and made her a Lady of the
Holy Sepulchre-two of the
highest awards of the Vatican
to Catholic laity. The present
government of Austria has
conferred upon her its "Gold
Medal for Merit."
This outstanding person­ality
is being sponsored at
Auburn jointly by Mortar
Board and the Public Affairs
Seminar Board. Baroness von
Trapp will speak at 8:15 p.m.
in the Student Ac Building
Monday. Her lecture of about
one hour will be free to all
students, faculty, and admin­istrators.

Brahms wrote his 'Requiem'

1965 was knighted by Pope
Paul VI for his contributions
to sacred music.
"Only recently has it been
discovered that Brahms also
wrote his 'Requiem' for per­formance
by four hands at one
piano. This is the version we
will use as the Chorale sings
excerpts from this work,"
says Wagner.

Sam ford clock-Auburn necessity, tradition
By BEVERLY BRADFORD
The four faces of the
Samford clock have stood
as sentinels over the cam­pus
since 1889, when Sam-ford
was reconstructed after
a fire destroyed the original
frame structure.
Only after power failures
and during summer months,
when trees in Samford park
hide three of the clock's
faces, do students and faculty
realize their dependence on
the clock.
They find themselves ar­riving
late for class, deprived
of the security of pacing their
steps according to the time
given by the clock. Class
time drags endlessly, and
often goes overtime without
the steady, comforting, on-the-
hour chime to end the
monotony of a lecture or the
tension of a quiz.
Most of the time, however,
Samford clock is dependabil­ity
personified due to the
efforts of A.H. Swope who
has adjusted and cared for
the clock since 1945, when
he was first employed by
Building Grounds as a plumb­er
in the mechanical shop.
A former Auburn student,
Swope studied electrical en­gineering
in 1925-26 but
never graduated.
When Swope goes up into
Samford's tower to adjust
the time on the clock, he sees
parts of the building the aver­age
student never thought
existed.
There is a spacious attic

A.W. SWOPE OILS SAMFORD CLOCK
Clock has timed Aubum since 1889
electricity in 1943, the clock
\ISLS been run by a motor small
enough to be cupped in two
hands.
A miniature clock face in
'he booth, identical to the
.'our tower faces, tells the
time shown above, 0n the
ower. The wooden hands on
he tower clocks, which move
'.'orward only, are adjusted by
a key similar to a music box
key. One revolution of the
key in the smaller clock moves
the hands on the four faces
forward by one hour.
A metal plate attached to
';he frame surrounding the
clock's inner wheels and
gears reads:
Sert Thomas Clock Co.
Thomaston Conn. U.S.A.
April 18, 1880 A.S. Hotchkiss
Up another narrow flight of
steps and through a locked
trap door is the open tower
level housing a large bronze
bell weighing 4200 lbs. Two
hammers as well as the clap­per
can ring the bell, but only
the electrically operated ham­mer
is currently used. The
second hammer may be oper­ated
by hand.
Raised letters across the
dark curved side of the heavy
bell read:
Clinton H. Meneely Bell Company
Troy N.Y. A.D. 1889
The bell has served many
uses. At the turn of the cen:
tury, it assembled students
for chapel on Sunday morn­ings.
During World War II it
was used as a potential air
raid alarm.
On the third tower level is
ford which separates the
tower from the rest of the
building. The stairs to the
tower open here from an al­cove
on the east side of the
room. By climbing the steep,
ladder-like steps, one reaches
the fifth level in Samford, a
small, square room which
houses a glass booth contain­ing
the clock works.
The clock was originally
driven by 700 lb. weights
which descended by pulley
through a chute leading from
the clock works to the first
floor. Similar 1100 lb. weights
ran the hands. These weights
had to be drawn up about once
a week, a process which re­quired
about five minutes of
steady crnaking.

a room containing a vertical
two-inch shaft connecting the
clock hands, on the next
level.
The fourth tower level is
a room enclosed by the four
wooden faces of the clock. It
contains four shafts, one con­nected
to each face from the
central shaft to turn the hands
on the clock.
For individual face adjust­ment,
the numeral XII on each
six foot clock face can be re­moved.
A man's head and
shoulders can fit through for a
look at the outside face and
for adjustment of the time on a
single face by hand.
At the age of 61, Swope
isn't bothered by the long
climb up to the clock. He re­calls
a time, eleven years
ago, when he made his record
climb to the tower in less
than five minutes. Had he
taken longer, he would have
had to listen to a deafening,
close-range chiming of the
hour.
It i s possible to climb even
higher in the Samford tower
than the fourth level, but
Swope usually leaves that
part of the tower to the owls
and pigeons.
