(Photo by Pat Busbee) Tigers ready to go Astro-bowling; bowl ticket orders being taken By ED RUZIC The Tigers are going bowling over the Christmas holidays in the biggest bowling alley in the world-the Astrodome in Houston, Texas. The Athletic Department has begun accepting orders for tickets for Auburn's appearance in the Dec. 31 Astro-Bluebonnet Bowl football game against the University of Houston. According to Director of Ticket Sales Bill Beckwith there should be enough tickets available for all students interested in attending the game. Tickets Debate gets $2,007; 9ther funds allotted By CYNTHIA CRIM iThe Auburn Debate Team has been alloted $2,007 of previously unallocated student activities fee funds. "The Board of Allocations, in its meeting Tuesday, also approved $192.50 for men's intramural sports and okayed funds for two new programs-thV Auburn Engineer and the Auburn Review, according to Dr. Etoyd Vallery, board chairman. ".^Receiving student activities funds for the first time, the Auburn Engineer, a magazine published by students in the School of. Engineering, was granted S^42. The Auburn Review, a campus literary magazine, was given $440. The two magazines will be required to meet standards set by the Board of Student Publications before receiving the funds allocated. The Board of Allocations withheld action on a request from the Architecture and Fine Arts Council for funds to finance an environmental structure and an art supplement to The Plainsman. The council had asked for $2,544. Dr. Vallery said action on this request would be taken in the* near future. Six campus organizations had requested funds from the unallocated two per cent—about $5000 --of the student activities fees. The Debate Team had asked for $2,500, the Auburn Review had (Continued on page 3, col. 8) are priced at $ 7 with a 50 cent handling charge and will be mailed out by Dec. 15. Football Coach Ralph "Shug" Jordan and Athletic Director Jeff Beard announced the acceptance of the Astro-Bluebon-net invitation Monday morning. "In behalf of the team", Jordan said, "We are looking foward to meeting Houston in the Astrodome. They have a tough team and it should be a good game." The Cougars, whose home field is the Astrodome has a 6-2 record with games remaining against Wyoming and Florida State, after being ranked number one in Playboy Magazine's preseason poll. In this week's Associated Press poll Houston is ranked 19th. Coach Bill Yeoman's Cougars are noted for their offense. They have backed up the claim of "Football's Greatest Show" by leading the nation in total offense for the last three years. Last year's 562 yards per game was an all-time NCAA record. The Astro-Bluebonnet Bowl, in it's 11th year, is being played in the Astrodome for the second time. From 1959-67 the game was played in nearby Rice Stadium, but last year's SMU-Oklahoma contest was moved to the artificial turf of Judge Roy Hofheinz' (Mr. Astrodome) palace. The game will be broadcast on national television beginning at 6-6:30 p.m.. SGA seeks repayment for Stones' concert f oulup By BEVERLY BRADFORD The Student Government Association is negotiating with the William Morris Agency for out-of-court settlement of costs incurred by the SGA due to neglect on the part of the Rolling Stones in connection with their appearance here last Friday. The exact amount of the extra costs has not been determined said SGA President David Hill. It resluted from overtime salaries for lighting crews, electricians, Pinkerton guards, policemen, stage hands and • others who worked up to seven hours when both Stones' performances were delayed. In addition, the SGA absorbed the cost of transporting the Stones' lighting and sound equipment from Columbus, Ga. to Auburn at the group's last-minute request. The contract between Auburn and the Stones had specified that the group would be. responsible for sending their equipment to Auburn. The equipment was six and a half hours late arriving in Auburn,.resulting in the program delays during which thousands of ticket holders waited outside Memorial Coliseum in freezing temperatures. The show scheduled for 6:30 p.m. was delayed until 9:30, and the 10 p.m. show was delayed until 12:30 a.m. It ended at 3 a.m. Special late permission was granted to the co-eds who attended. SGA Popular Entertainment Director Jette Campbell had expected the Stones' equipment to arrive in Auburn at noon Friday and a crew was ready to receive it at that time. But at 11 a.m., a Stones representative called from Tuscaloosa and asked Campbell to send three trucks and 12 workers to Columbus, Ga. ito pick up the equipment. The Stones were to bear the cost, but failed to do so. The equipment arrived in Auburn at 5:30 p.m., one hour before the first show was to begin. According to Campbell, it takes between three and five hours to assemble the equipment. The contract stated that the Stones would not play without it. Stage hands hurriedly assembled the equipment but could not -overcome the initial delay. While students waited for the program to begin, it was an-announced that Chuck Berry would substitute for the Ike and Tina Turner Revue, originally scheduled for the program. Terry Reid, another performer in the show, did not appear in the second show because Berry's act ran overtime. The contract guaranteed the appearance of the Stones, but not of the other acts. No advance notice was given the SGA of the substitution of Berry. The Stones came to Auburn from Dallas, Tex., where they performed Thursday night. Auburn was the tenth of 14-Bt6ps included in the 16-day tour. About 12,000 tickets were sold for the shows for a gross of $44,000. The fee for the show was $35,000. Campbell said other expenses would run between $6,000 and $8,000, but exact cost and the profit, if any, will not be known for at least a month. He said, "We are sorry about the delays, but we hope that students will understand they were beyond our control." "We were mainly concerned with getting the Stones here* and getting the money to pay theml The Stones show set a precedent for big-came entertainment at Auburn," he added. SGA President David Hill said, "We understand the problems which caused the delay. There were just too many people and too much equipment to be moved in one day." At some of the other stops on the tour, the shows ran as late as 6 a.m.. Hill said. Schlesinger scheduled to address ACOIA By LAURETTA SNETRO Arthur Schlesinger, Jr., special assistant to President Kennedy from 1961-64 and Schweitzer Professor of Humanities at City University in New York since 1966, will address the Auburn Conference on International Affairs March 6. Schlesinger, who received his A.B. degree in history at Harvard in 1938, will discuss "The End of the Age of the Superpowers" in connection with this year's ACOIA topic, com- University Senate OKs residence requirement By JANE DICKERSON A proposal requiring a minimum of 45 hours in residence study to be graduated was passed Tuesday afternoon by the University Senate. Among other proposals brought before the body, one granting transfer of academic credit to high school students completing college level courses at a junior college prior to graduation was passed and a proposal increasing the number of the University Senate was defeated. The passed residence proposal states that a student must earn a minimum of 45 hours during his final year and in his curriculum while in residence. The student's .dean may waive his final year's residence in a specific curriculum and grant up to 20 hours of credit earned elsewhere, but a student must complete at least 45 hours in residence before he can be graduated. The old residence rulei stated that a student had to have been enrolled in the specific curriculum of graduation for three quarters and had to have completed the hours required 'for the last year of work. The second proposal passed by the University Senate states that a high school student completing college level courses before graduation can transfer full credit for these courses if he does not use them to fulfill his high school graduation requirements. To receive credit, he must have a "C" average in the course and be sure that the course is acceptable to the curriculum he chooses. Vote on the 1970-71 University calendar was delayed until the January senate meeting. munication. The time and place for his speech has not been announced. In 1966 he was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for the biography "A Thousand Days," the story of Kennedy in the White House. His other works include "The Bitter Heritage," "Congress and The Presidency," "Paths of American Thought" and "Kennedy or Nixon." Schlesinger has made appearances on Face the Nation and Meet the Press. The topic of communication is being divided into three issues: communication between students and administration, blacks and whites, and U.S. and Russia. "We hope to help bridge these communication gaps for some through our efforts to inform and stimulate discussion during the conference" said Mark Marsh, ACOIA chairman. The conference, now in its twelfth year, is scheduled for Feb. 15 through March 7. "We changed the conference to winter quarter and spread it out; in the past it was limited to a three day symposium. The longer conference should encourage more student participation because there won't be as many class conflicts. Students used to miss classes to attend the programs," said Marsh. "We also felt the spring weather when the conference was held last year hurt us since students preferred being at Chewacla to attending programs," added Marsh. Letters have been sent to clergymen, businessmen, faculty members and the administration around Auburn inviting them to attend the conference. "We are encouraging more participation from the general community this year," said Marsh. "We used to concentrate just on the students." Major colleges and universities in Alabama, Georgia and Florida as well as every high school in Alabama have been invited to participate in ACOIA. Besides the schedule change, the conference is emphasizing more informal discussion groups. Talks will be scheduled at banquets, fraternity houses and sorority chapter rooms. If finances allow, 360 degree projection movies relating to the understanding of communication will also be shown. The Lectures Committee may (Continued on page 3, col. 8) Cliff Hare enlargement plan approved By DAVE THORNBURY Plans for the enlargement of Cliff Hare Stadium have been approved by both the Campus Planning Committee and the State Building Commission. The planned enlargement of the stadium has been estimated by the architects, Wine, Knight and Davis of Birmingham, to be approximately $1.35 million. The University has accepted Burns, Kirkley and Williams Construction Company as the company to do the construction. The firrn of BK&WCC took thp. contract with a low bid of $1,034 million. The contract will be written next week, and the date on which they will begin construction will not be k nown until then. However, the construction on the stadium will be completed by next September, said Pres. Harry M. Philpott.

"It's just like flying," Jan, 19, exclaimed, "and the only catch is I don't get to go often enough!" g Rappelling is a popular sport in the Swiss Alps, but Jan ;"has to limit her sporting to the Little Grand Canyon near 'Columbus, Ga. since she says there aren't any "nice" "cliffs any closer. J.- Jan, says that she was introduced to rappelling by other l^ubum students whqse interest had been ^spurred »by an Advanced Counter Gue'rillct program.' ' 5 "Allyou need is some strong rope to slide down, some ^lender rope to make a 'Swiss seat', and welders' gloves \o protect against rope burns," Jan explained. The "Swiss ;$eat" is a rope girdle that the rappeller wears around the ;hips, and is tied to the rope the rappeller slides down. £ An 85-foot cliff is the highest jump Jan has taken, and 3t proved to be quite an experience. :• Being her first jump, Jan was nervous and asked for the ^instructions over and over again. "They told me to hold the ^rope tightly," she laughed, "but as soon as I jumped, I rforgot. r "I fell flat on my back, hanging upside down about 75 ::feet up in the air! You can't imagine how glad I was to get :back on the ground!" J Jan said the experience did not put a damper on her enthusiasm, though, and she is anxious to rappell every chance :%he gets. r; An avid fan of flying, Jan also yearns to pilot a plane and fto parachute. Size prevents her from parachuting now--at :a mere 94 pounds, she feels she's 11 pounds shy of qualifying.

Brennan has appointed the following chairman to the drives: Johnny Williams, All-Campus Christmas Party; Cheryl Lehman, All- Campus Fund Drive; and Kyle Johnson, SGA co-chairman of the Blood Drive. The All-Campus Christmas Party will provide entertainment , refre shments and gifts for the underprivileged children. Approximately 500 gifts are expected to be contributed to the party from students and campus organizations. The party will begin at 7 p.m. The All Campus Fund Drive is tentatively set for Jan. 29-Feb. 3. Several changes have been made in the drive. Projects will be reduced from a one week to a two or three day period. The total contributions from the drive will be distributed in a different manner. In order to better affect Auburn and the Auburn- Opelika area, half of this year's contributions will be allocated to local charities and deserving organizations in the Lee County area. The other half may be put into the present Student Loan Fund, or a new SGA student scholarships fund. Competition between organizations will be emphasized with a larger and-.-broad-- Si* Carnival. The blood Drive has come under much criticism in past years in relation to the destination of the donations. To alleviate this problem the SGA will conduct the Blood Drive jointly with the Pharmacy Department spring quarter. This year's donations will be directed to the Southeastern area, particularly areas ravaged by Hurricane Camille. "As is easy to see, the whole aspect of Campus Drives this year has been changed,'' said Brennan. The donations, whether toys, money or blood, will be used in our immediate area.

And they are up to a point. They're convenient enough to wear, once you get used to them, but, until recently, you had to use two or more different lens solutions to properly prepare and maintain contacts. You needed two or three different bottles, lens cases, and you went through more than enough daily rituals to make even the most steadfast individuals consider dropping out. But now caring for your contacts can be as convenient as wearing them. Now there's Len-sine, from the makers of Murine. Lensine is the one lens solution designed for complete contact lens care . . . preparing, cleansing, and soaking. Just a drop or two of Lensine before you insert your lens prepares it for your eye. Lensine makes your contacts, which are made of modern plastics, compatible with your eye. How? Lensine is an "isotonic" solution. That means it's made to blend with the eye's natural fluids. So a simple drop or two jj coats the lens, forming a sort of comfort zone around it. Cleaning your contacts with Lensine fights bacteria and foreign deposits that build up during the course of the day. And for overnight soaking, Lensine provides a handy contact canister on the bottom of every bottle. Soaking your contacts in Lensine between wearing periods assures you of proper lens hygiene. Improper storage between wearings permits the growth of bacteria on your lenses. This is a sure cause of eye irritation and, in some cases, it can endanger your vision. Bacteria cannot grow in Lensine. Lensine is sterile, self-sanitizing, and antiseptic. Let your contacts be the convenience they were designed to be. The name of the game is Lensine.

Thursday, November 20, 1969 3- THE AUBURN PLAINSMAN Moratorium debate success, Sanders says The open forum on Vietnam was termed "very successful" by Joseph Sanders, head of the Auburn Human Rights Forum, as more than 500 students, faculty and townspeople filled Langdon Hall Nov. 13, to discuss the war. The informal forum was sponsored by the Auburn Veterans Association and the Human which appeared in last week's Rights Forum to allow discussion on the war in Vietnam and to generate interest in world affairs by students. The forum was opened by Sanders and Robert Young, head of the AVA, who read their groups' policy statements SGA rents 150 of 500 refrigerators Refrigerator rentals, a student service sponsored by the Student Government Association, has so far been successful according to SGA Pres. :David Hill. The SGA office has already rented 150 of the 500 refrigerators which are available to students. Most of the renters have been girls. Hill said, "The only problem we have had is with the delivery. The refrigerators are delivered within 10 days, but the student must be present when they are brought, which may cause some inconvenience." The • refrigerator rental ser- -vice was set up this fall for the .first time by SGA.

The discussion was then opened to the audience. The opinions of those who opposed the war centered a-round the contention that the war is immoral and that the way Americans are fighting the war is immoral. These ideas were supported mainly by a former member of the Army who was wounded in Vietnam. This man agreed wholeheartedly with the anti-war demonstrators and discussed the "atrocities" committed by the American Army in the warl A sergeant presently in the Army, stood and agreed completely with the ex-soldier. Argument on the side of the AVA centered around patriotism and the validity of protest that is currently being carried out, but Sanders said, "This movement is very patriotic. We are legally voicing our objections to the war." Chuck Taylor, secretary of academic affairs and organizer of the open forum, deemed the; forum a complete success but regretted that the discussion became too emtoional at times. No definite agreements were reached in the discussion but participation was very active. "The discussion could have lasted much longer," said Taylor, "but we had to close the discussion due to lack of time." No definite plans have been made for a similar forum in January, but, "the response was so favorable by the students," said Young, that we can plan on having another for-urn.

JOE SANDERS, HUMAN RIGHTS FORUM PRESIDENT, ADDRESSES AUDIENCE Forum, Auburn Veterans' Association discuss Vietnam war 'Students must finish ROTC- Dr. Littleton All men students who have not completed six quarters of ROTC should schedule in winter quarter according to Dr. Taylor D. Littleton, dean of undergraduate studies. Dr. Littleton's memorandum clarified administration of the Board of Trustees, resolution to make basic ROTC voluntary. Dr. Littleton's statement was released Monday following the Board's action on Nov. 7. The Trustees' resolution said that credit will be given for ROTC and that the University reaffirms ROTC's importance and pledges continued coopera - tion to the Department of Defense in its ROTC program. Those who have completed four quarters or less should continue ROTC in the spring, according to the memorandum. In addition, deferred or unscheduled quarters will be completed on a one to one basis before a student may graduate. Each undergraduate dean or acting head confirmed intention of following Dr. Littleton's policy. Reactions from military commanders have shown support of the Board's decision. Col. Andrew Lamar, USA, professor of military science, said that the ROTC unit would "support 100 per cent the university's decisions. The Department of Defense (DOD) policy provides for the type of program desired by the university. We give to the best of our ability what they prefer and DOD doesn't state what is preferred." Col. Ritchie P. Stimpson, USAF, professor of aerospace studies, said, "We in the Air Force ROTC program will support the university, the president, the Board of Trustees and all decisions." "I sincerely believe that a student taking ROTC can hardly fail to benefit from a two-year exposure to this training . . . However, I do feel that . . . the student should have the option of taking advantage of this training if he so desires it," said Capt. David A. Barks - dale, USN, professor of naval science. "The Navy ROTC fully supports the action of the Board of Trustees regarding the status of ROTC at Auburn," he continued. Dean J. Grady Cox, dean of engineering, said, "lam pleased to see the action by the Board of Trustees. Now the student has an honest opinion." looking at things from a whole new angle," said Danny Wil-kowsky, director of community relations for SGA. Students will gaiher in front of the library at 3 p.m. to begin the demonstration with signs to designate each groups. The Chamber of Commerce parade, complete with bands, floats and Santa, will begin at Glendean Shopping Center at 2 p.m. The two groups will meet at the corner of Glenn and Gay streets and then will march together through downtown and back to the library, where they will "sit-in for Santa." A 30-foot Christmas tree in front of the library will be lighted by Santa and Miss Auburn, Ginger van Hooser. Gifts will be placed in receptacles under the tree and carols will be sung. A community spirit trophy will will be awarded to the group with the best participation and most originality. Campus organizations will take gifts to the Welfare Office in Opelika. "We're looking for sororities, fraternities and independent organizations to support the demonstration," added Wilkow-sky. "It won't be any good unless we get a multitude of people out there. "Instead of demonstrating against something, students will have the opportunity to demonstrate for something " Wilkow-sky said. Over 10.000 "It's better to" badges are being passed out to students and townspeople to go along with the idea that it's Members of the Jaycees will also be collecting food and clothing during the demonstration, which they will later distribute to the less fortunate. A paint-in will be held at the Coliseum parking lot Dec. 2 to paint up signs and banners to be used in the demonstration. "The city is behind this demonstration all the way." said Wilkowsky.

The purpose of the meetings was to discuss the important role that the students have on these committees and to aid them in effectively carrying out their responsibilities. However, of the approximately 70 students on these committees, only 10 came to the meeting. The unfortunate situation is that some of these students sometimes also fail to attend their regular committee meetings.

A recent meeting of the Allocations Board had to be postponed because one of the student members just forgot about it and did not come. Auburn students have been more fortunate than students at many other schools. They are represented on most of the major committees that maice decisions affecting students. On several committees, they hold equal or majority representation. However, there are areas such as the Fraternities and Curriculum Committees where more stuaent representation is needed. When student leaders go to Pres. Harry RL Philpott to request this, their position is hurt by the poor response from students on committees. We think that Hill's decision to remove any student who misses two committee meetings is a good one. This may inspire them to do a more effective job. Auburn students will not be allowed to assume a larger role within the University until they are willing and able to assume the responsibility. Larger student activity fee needed When the Allocations Board met Tuesday to consider student requests for a share of the approximately $5,500 in unallocated student activity fees, it quickly became apparent that there was not enough money a-vailable to meet a third of the requests. The total amount requested by the six s t u d e n t groups was $17,199. When the decisions were made, two groups, the Architecture and Fine Arts Council and the Soccer Club, had received nothing and Men's Intramurals had received only a fraction of its $4,500 request. The Debate Team, which had suffered a reduction in its budget last spring, fared the best, receiving approximately 80 per cent of its request. It should be noted here that only a-bout $3,400 of the total available was allocated. The biggest problem is that all of these piograms u, . ^ . t as much support as possible. They all make valuable contributions LU the total educational experience at Auburn. But, if there is no money available, there is little the University can do. Since the funds come from the student activity fees, the obvious solution would be to raise them. In a sense, this has already been done. The student activity fees are part of the total University fee paid by each student. The Board of Trustees recently approved a 25 per cent increase in these for next year. How much of this increase will go to student activities will not be decided until the budget preparation next spring. The present student activity fee is $6.50 per quarter, one of thelowest in the South. With the growing number of student services and projects, a substantially greater amount of money will be needed. For the fullest development of Auburn and its students, Pres. Harry M. Philpott and the administration should seriously consider a meaningful increase. Stones and when-over AiUio-.ifau fchfcic »cie many complaints from the audience about the lateness of the Rolling Stones shows and some grumblings about its quality, one good thing came from the Student Government-sponsored concert. Auburn coeds who attended the last show were allowed to stay out longer than any coeds in Auburn's mstory. It's nice to see we are finally making some progress, even if by accident.

There was no buzz of conversation and small talk about how good the movie was or which actor was best. They were silent for the most part. Submerged in their own thoughts, they drifted out into the cold, dark night leaving the Celluloid - encased bodies and burning machines of Easy Rider behind them. The movie could not be easily digested in a few, quick thoughts. Comprehension and understanding came the next day only after talks with others who also attempted to probe into the depths of Easy Rider and find its meanings. The exchange of differing ideas helped to crystalize several thoughts concerning the movie and what might be its message. Most people who saw the show agreed that it was not one where it could be said, "I liked it," However, it was meaningful because it vividly created an experience of sight and sound that is By Brute all too true in today's society. Where most motion pictures appear just a little bigger than life really is, Easy Rider comes unusually close to the realities of alienated youth who seek something better in the American way-of- life but cannot find it. It is this closeness to the truth about what really happens in this nation that makes the movie so upsetting and so tragic. The characters are real. We live and work with their counterparts in our own lives. We have heard the same words which were spoken on the screen. The actions have happened before and will probably happen again. And these words and actions show too clearly that, in spite of our high ideals and lofty words, often we do not allow others the freedom we praise so highly. In our society, which has so long required conformity to its rules and standards, many of its members cannot understand why some young people so easily rebel against the straight world. What these people, who stand on the other side of the gen- Disappointment in Stones obscures SGA's success By Beverly Bradford Gilliland eration gap, do not realize is that unquestioning obedience to the set patterns of society has tended to blind them to the ineqities caused by society. Young people have seen them, and they are appalled. Because the young people are different and because they fail to conform to the standards, many adults have reacted with fear and distrust. Rather than attempt to aid youth as they search for the good in our society in order to put it to use, the older generation has wanted to supress many of the actions of youth. Because of the conformity and sameness of society, most of its members are not free in the sense that the young men in Easy Rider were free. This freedom, too much freedom for many people, grated on their narrow-minded concepts. Because they did not understand it, they had to destroy it and the young men who represented it. As the lawyer said in the movie, people are not free in spite of how much they talk about it, and when they see it, they become dangerous. It killed Captain America and Billy. Another tragedy that unfolds across the landscape of America is the search of the two young men for something in life that would make theirs complete. They knew that somewhere, there existed something in our society which would be the life they sought. It was obvious, however, that they did not know exactly what it was they wanted. They thought the Mardi gras was the answer. They did not realize until too late that artificial fun and tripping out was not the truth they hoped to find. So many of today's youth have the same problem. They want a better way of life; a more meaningful and relevant one than what they find in our present, often hypocritical society. Unfortunately, they lack the experience to set their own course, and their parents, tied to their own goals, have not always been able to help them. Therewas no one to help the young and dying men in Easy Rider. As the theatre emptied, we went from reality into reality. I wonder if there was a change? Last Friday's Rolling Stones show was l l V 4*M W widely touted in its planning stages as a test to see if Auburn, given a facility such as Memorial Coliseum, could accomodate popular entertainment on a large scale. Student Government Association officials, who had hoped only to break even, expect ty entertainment, instead to realize a profit „SGA h a s t h e leadership to from the show. direct s u c h a n effort< The financial success of the Stones show, however, has been obscured by poor Stones' management, which resulted in inexcusable delays in both performances. without advance notice to SGA, Chuck Berry was substituted for the Ike and Tina Turner Revue. Though the contract allowed for such a change, that legality did not prevent the disappointment of the audience, which was compounded in the second show when Terry Reid did not perform because Berry's act ran too long. The first show, scheduled by contract for 6:30 p.m., began instead at 9:30 p.m.; the 10 p.m. show was delayed until 12:30 a.m. Meanwhile thousands waited outside the Coliseum in freezing temperatures for the performances to begin. The tliree-fioilr deiiiy can be credited fully to the Stones. Their equipment, some SI.5 million worth, was six and a half hours late arriving. Stage crew workers had two pressure factors with which to cohtend-the race against time, and the rudeness of the Stones' stage managers. The contract placed the responsibility for transport of the equipment to Auburn solely on the Stones. The group failed to meet that requirement, then failed to compensate for the added costs which Auburn incurred in meeting it for them. The Stones' difficulties were apparently due to the frantic pace of their tour schedule. In 16 days, they played in 14 different cities. No time was allowed for unexpected delays and by the tenth day of the tour when the group arrived in Auburn, they were well behind schedule. Student dissatisfaction with the delays and changes in the two shows is certainly justified, but it must be properly directed--at the Stones rather than at SGA. For several years, lack of space has prevented the billing of top performers at Auburn. But the Stones show, despite its many flaws, proved that- --Auburn and its environs can produce an audience of sufficient size to bear the substantial entertainment fee demanded by a top group. -The administration is not only willing, but eager to help students obtain quali- There were many lessons to be learned from Auburn's Stones experience, and they were well taken by those who worked tirelessly for weeks to produce the show. The poor organization and management of the Stones and their entourage was not necessarily exemplary of all big-name performers. If student support of SGA's entertainment program is undermined by disappointment in the Stones, the result could be catastrophic for the future of popular entertainment at Auburn. "MY pOiOt i0U HO? AG0MIZIN6 ANP JitfT TURN fH£ PA&V Greek changes needed The following is one of a series of "Campus Perspective" articles written I by administrators, faculty members and j student leaders at Auburn University. I Phil Cuba, Interfraternity Council vice-l president for rush, is this week's guest ; columnist. By PHIL CUBA Many opponents of the fraternity system ! accuse fraternities of no longer having any ! relevance to a college education. They \ claim that fraternities are dead or at least dying. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Since 1940 the number of established fraternity and sorority chapters has more ; than doubled. Fraternity leaders are finding : they cannot keep pace with the needs of the • more thaa 400 institutions which are asking \ fraternities and sororities to establish chap-i ters on their campuses. The fact is that j fraternities and sororities have survived wars, campus unrest and criticism for al- \ most two centuries. Yet these critics are not entirely wrong, ; for the truth is that the Greek system does \ have some serious problems, and those j who care must act now. Certainly, the basic : ideals of Greek life-love, friendship and I brotherhood are not going out of style. The I problems obviously do not lie in these ba- \ sic concepts; instead it's in the applica- \ tion, style, image and self-concept of the I individual Greek. \ If the deepest values of the system are [Mo be maintained, some external aspects I must be re-vamped, for it is these details I that are under fire for their decay. One of these problems has been the often I misleading image of fraternity life which I rushees see during the few days of formal I rush each fall. They are not able to meet I the brothers and learn as much about fra- I ternities as they need to know. An alterna- \ tive is needed to counter-act these problems : of formal rush. Next week the fraternities must vote on I the adoption of an "open" summer rush program. A recent position statement is- 1 sued by the Fraternity Secretaries Asso- 1 ciation of the National Interfraternity Con- I ference endorsed any open rush system 1 with a minimum of restrictive rules. The | proposed rush system is patterned after 1 the system first used by the award-winning 1 Interfraternity Council at Kansas State Uni- I versity where there are no restrictions on I rush. Most fraternity experts agree that I open rush has several advantages over the 1 conventional or "closed" rush, and sta- § tistics seem to verify this opinion. One of the major benefits of summer rush is the necessity it creates for individual contact, often in the home of the rushee. This usually sells the fraternity system to both the rushee and his parents. Too often in closed rush parents are never contacted and sometimes do not know what will be expected of their son as a fraternity member. Also, men who pledge in the summer have had more time to meet the men in the fraternity i and fully contemplate their decision. On I the other hand closed rush leaves the rush- i ee only four or five days in which to select | a fraternity and decide whether or not to I pledge. These factors and others have re- j suited in an increase in number of men | pledged, while decreasing the number off men depledging on campuses where open|| rush has been in effect. Now is the time for all Auburn fraternity | men to examine our present rush system and § evaluate its advantages and disadvantages. | Hopefully, we will not allow the stagnation of rush practices to destroy our frater- j nity system. Fraternities are desperately in need of - change, and this change must eventually 1 come, but why wait until it's too late? forgotten?... Spiro Agnew-- an actual unknown By Beb Payne Before Spiro T. Agnew took office as President Nixon's second-in-command, the vice-presidency was a post for a forgotten man. Agnew, however, is a man who refuses to be forgotten. The oratory of the Vice- P r e s i d e n t , changed- little from the "fat Japs and Pol-acks'' of the campaign trail, is grabbing headlines and air time on the news media across the country. Following the Oct. 15 Vietnam moratorium, Agnew called the war protestors "an effete corps of impudent snobs who characterize themselves as intellectuals." He then loosed a verbal barrage against Sen. Edmund S. Muskie, accusing the Maine Democrat of playing "Russian roulette with U.S. security" by promoting a unilateral halt to tests of strategic weapons. And in his latest linguistic sally, Agnew blasted the television networks, calling their news coverage biased« Senate majority leader Mike Mansfield professed to be "embarrassed" with the Vice-President's conduct, and New York Sen. Jacob Javits said that no one had "ever accused Agnew of being all that brillant." A letter writer in The Washington Post opined that Agnew had "once again put effete in his mouth." Why does the Vice-President lay himself open for cri ticism with his comments on issues and affairs? The New York Times offered a multiple-choice answer to the question: (a) Agnew is acting as the President's "hatchet man" (b) he is demonstrating naivete about national politics; (c) he is helping to prove the Administration really does believe in open dissent; or (d) none of the above. Circle answer (d), for Agnew is simply Agnew. He has been described as opinionated, bigoted and narrow-minded. Some critics have called him a man who loves the taste of his own shoe leather. Many of his colleagues in the Nixon administration say he is intensely loyal; a firmbeliev-er in the traditional American virtues. And all of these comments and criticisms may be true. Agnew is a man in a high office with strong views on the major issues of the day, and he isn't afraid to express his opinion. Agnew, though, does seem to speak for a fair portion of the American people. His stand behind the President on the conduct of the Vietnam war was echoed by 77 per cent of the persons surveyed in a recent Gallup poll. And after his speech condemning the television networks, mail to radio and TV stations supported the Vice-President by a 10 to 1 margin. So any criticism of Agnew is also a criticism of a large part of America. As he said, "There is a very 'conservative' current running through the country at the present time." And Agnew is in the mainstream* Agnew has brought new life to the office of the Vice-President. His leadership of the Space Task Force helped spell out a set of national goals for our space program. His work as liaison man between the Administration and mayors and governors has, on the whole, proved an asset to communication. Perhaps his most disappointing efforts have come as president of the Senate, which has been reluctant to do his bidding. Agnew admits that he is not always right, but as h says, "some you win ai some you lose, and some f rained out-in the tears."

I left the interstate for a cramped roadway. This path carried, me past the Swine and Poultry Research Centers and several cotton fields, until I reached the heart of the red glow, Auburn University. I was facing an Auburn style football weekend. After the research centers, I had expected the Campus buildings to resemble barns and the renowned Haley- Center to sit in a cow pasture. Instead, I discovered modern, architectural designs that showed no hint of ante-bellum history. All of these structures were surrounded by beautiful, grassy areas that lacked cow manure.

Mm^ • IFC begins scholarship, loan fund The Interfraternity Council will start a scholarship and loan fund for fraternity men with the profit from the Four Seasons show Nov. 7. The estimated $2500 will begin a fund to make scholarships available to fraternity men who are un-ble to get aid from the Uni-> versity or other sources. Jim Mills, IFC treasurer, is currently investigating similar programs at other universities to aid in setting up the fund at Auburn. IFC Pres. Bill Vann said, "We feel like this is something that will help individual' fraternity men and be a real service to the University." Gross ticket receipts for the show totaled about $11,309. The estimated profit is far more than any other group has made sponsoring entertainment in the Coliseum.

Those two boxes are still in the custody of the sheriff's department. On Oct. 1 Sanders' apartment was entered by state narcotics agents, Auburn police, sheriff's deputies and FBI agents as observers on a "John Doe ".search warrant. The raid was in connection withadrug crackdown in which four students were arrested. After the raid, the three boxes were turned over to the State Toxicology Lab to be examined. According to Sheriff Pearson, when someone comes to claim the other two boxes, that person will be arrested and charged with possession of marijuana and be subject to action by the state. No action is to be taken against Sanders. SIGMA TAU DELTA Sigma Tau Delta, national English honorary, will meet Dec. 3 at 3:10 p.m. in Haley Room 3106. . OPPORTUNITY IS KNOCKING ...

It was like a ten-story luxury hotel turned into classrooms and offices. Then I reminded myself that buildings didn't make a university. People had to do it. So, I decided to meet the people of AU. On Friday night 1 saw black and white students groove together at a free Tarns show. It was an everybody "come as you are" affair with the Interfrater- Council picking up the tab. Here I watched two black brothers ignite a spontaneous pep rally, something I had never seen 'up North. Also, I was amazed at. white country- boys screaming for more of black vocalist Bren-da B. who appeared with the Tarns. On Saturday afternoon I observed country football take on the Florida Gators. An unbelievable three hours passed. Boy, if dis is country football, we social footballers had better beware on Nov. 29! I immediately noticed at the game that Cliff Hare Stadium didn't have that Louisville, Ky., odor that Denny Stadium always has. These hicks seem to possess a secret for getting soulful spirit without preceeding it with the liquid kind. That night I was amazed when all of Auburn's fraternities opened their victory celebrations to every student. A free concert and open parties, this is the real brotherhood that fraternities are always bragging about. Sunday at dusk as I left Auburn, I took a look back. I wondered over how much that red glow had diminished since Friday night. I guess the cow college isn't as backwards as I had thought (and hoped). Phillip Rawls Paty Hall Student criticizes parking problems Editor, The Plainsman: Isn't it a shame that Au-- burn students-united at football games-have to fight each other (literally) for parking spaces! This is especially frustrating when one looks out a Haley Center classroom window and sees a huge empty lot occupied only by a lone "A-zone" sign. (The changing to B-zone will hardly help those who need it most.) In my latest encounter in the proverbial parking lots (it happens to everybody sometime) was a fight to the death and would have ended in a draw if I had been willing to sacrifice my car (visions of explanations to my insurance man danced through my head) A few suggestions may or may not help: Observance by all of the unwritten "laws of the lots," such as when two cars are waiting for spaces on opposite sides of a lot, one does not pull around into a space on the opposite side in front of a car that has been waiting on that side. Prompt dismissal of all classes on the hour so that the time needed for people to get back to their cars and vacate spaces can be held to a minimum. A little application of Auburn spirit outside the stadium and some old-fashioned common courtesy, by both students and faculty.

THE AUBURN PUINSMJW -6 Thursday, November 20, 1969 Tiger, Tide common opponents rate Auburn physically superior Kiner. McClendon, Pharr favor AU Astro-Bluebonnet takes back seat f > r X,F ******* COACH JORDAN PRACTICES FOR NOV, 29 Don Pristow and Greg Robert supply the shoulders By DON EDDINS It's now official that Auburn's going to the Astro- Bluebonnet Bowl to play Houston, but first the Tigers have an all-important engagement with the University of Alabama in Birmingham's 'Iron Bowl.' The Tigers have beaten Bama and 'The Bear' only one of the last ten meetings between the schools, but if the consensus of the two team's common opponents is correct, Auburn is the odds on favorite this year. Steve Kiner, the spokesman of the University of Tennessee football team (and Ail-American linebacker), stated, "If I had to pick the winner, I'd take Auburn, but I'd stay away from picking the game. Alabama takes a lot of pride in beating Auburn, so you have to take into account the emotional aspect. "But Auburn is physically much stronger. The offense is better balanced. Auburn's defense is far superior, analyzed Kiner. "Hunter is the better quarterback and Alabama's execution is better. Alabama makes up a lot for their lack of strength with their execution, but if I had to pick a winner I'd still take Auburn because they' re so far superior physically," added Kiner. Lousiana State Coach Charlie McClendon stated outright, "Auburn is the stronger of the two teams. Defensively Auburn is far superior. Hunter is probably the more polished passer, but Auburn is better balanced offensively. But it is pretty tough to judge the teams on one ball game." All-SEC quarterback Tommy Pharr of Mississippi State called Auburn "the better team. We were able to move the ball up and down the field against Alabama, but we couldn't do that against Auburn. "The only edge Alabama might have is experience-wise at quarterback, but there's no comparison between the teams," added Pharr. Only Alabama alumnus Frank Howard of Clemson would not say that Auburn was superior. "The day we played Auburn, you had the best defense I've seen in a long time, but I couldn't speak for a whole season. I'd rate the game a toss-up. "It seems that ya'll just don't think you can beat Alabama. I've seen years when it looked like Auburn had the best team, but there i s just something about the game and Alabama always wins, so I'd have to rate the game a toss-up," concluded the Clemson coach. Cagers open Dec. 1 against Gamecocks By DON EDDINS Auburn opens its 19R9- 70 basketball season at home Dec. 1 against powerful South Carolina. The Gamecocks should provide an early test for the Tigers, since South Caro- This year has got to belt BIRMINGHAM, Ala.-the evening of Nov. 29. 1969. Wild eyed fans crowd the street corners and yell about somebody drowning. The sounds of "War Eagle" bounce across every dance floor in the city. Besides vocal spirit, liquid spirits are so plentiful you think it's coming out of the faucets. In the back of your mind is a good feeling. Tomorrow you know you can go to church for the first time in five years and not worry about an Alabama fan giving you the cow college or turkey buzzard line. This day is going to be a platform to stand on for the next one, two, three, four, or even five years. Yes, it'sgp-ing to be a happy day. Auburn has beaten Alabama by any score and anybody was the hero. It doesn't make any difference, just so we won. But actually this is only a dream and everybody knows it. Auburn's class of '64 and '65 both dreamed it for four years and never saw it come true. The class of '66 has seen R a m b l j n ' Ruz was an Alabama fan. "I tried to sell cokes at that game, too," Kolen said, "But they wouldn't let me. I ended up climbing up the light post and getting into the upper deck of Legion Field. I saw the game from the fifty yard line. I wasn't too happy after the game and I think I went home and watched Gunsmoke on TV that night." Defensive end Dick Ingwersen from Pascagoula, Miss, had hardly even heard of Auburn. "I used to follow Oie Miss and Miss. State and I don't think I even knew that Auburn and Alabama were playing." So it's easy to see why we may have a hard time knowing how to celebrate. Some of us can't even remember the game. But don't worry. We have over a week to decide what to do-plus a backlog of five years of dreams. lina has been picked number one in the nation in at least three pre-season polls. "We're really going to have to be p r e p a r e d foi them," said Coach Bill Lynn. "We know they're one of the top teams in the country." The starting lineup is still not completely set, but four starting positions have been won. Seniors Carl'Shet- 'ler at guard, Bill Alexander at center and Ron Jackson at forward will start. Junior John Mengelt will start at the other guard. The other forward position is still up for grabs with Henry Harris, Jimmy Walker and Pat Cowart battling for the position "I don't think you could ask for three better seniors than we've got this year," said Coach Lynn. "They've given us the type leadership you have to have to build a winning team." HAS TO BE ByEdRuzh Sports Editor j . • g i the dream turn into a nightmare for the last three seasons; but, according to members of the 1963 team, the team that last beat Alabama—this has got to be the year. ^ Mailon Kent, the second team quarterback who came off the bench and threw the winning touchdown in that 10-8 victory said this week, "The '63 and '69 teams are lot different. Mostly because football was played different. We didn't throw as many passes back in those days. "But I think this year's Auburn team should beat Alabama. We play better as a team than the Tide and we have better individual players at almost every position." Jimmy Sidle, Auburn's 1963 All-American thought much the same way. "Auburn has a better team than Alabama and if we don't make mistakes it won't even be close. I think the most outstanding thing about this team is the confidence they have in Pat Sullivan." So if these former stars are correct, this is going to be the year that our dream comes true. But if we do win-what do we do after that? None of us have ever had the rue experience, only dreams. Beating Alabama is different and you can't celebrate in the regular way. You've got to do something special. So back to Mailon Kent and Jimmy Sidle. What did they do after the game in 1963? "Well we were really happy" Kent said, "becausetrue were going to the Orange Bowl, too. We almost tore that dressing room apart. That night we hit every party in Birmingham. "I forgot exactly what we did," Sidle added, "but I remember we went to one hell of a party. All of us wanted to celebrate," But meanwhile, what were some of today's players doing back on that day in 1963. "I was a little fellow back then," Pat Sullivan said this week. "I sold cokes at the game and was really happy when Auburn won." Unfortunately Mike Kolen had never visited Auburn and AND HE COULD CARELESS WHO HE HURTS ALON6THE WAY!!!

MAGNOLIA PHONE 821-2818 JMbw Showing BOBBY WOODRUFF DOWNS A BULLDOG After Georgia victory, Auburn accepted the Astro Bluebonnet invitation Auburn's personnel best in conference, says Dooley By HUGH OWEN "I thought we played a pretty good football game," said Georgia head coach Vince Dooley following the Bulldogs' 16-3 loss to Auburn. "Auburn, I think, has the best personnel in the league, and I thought we battled them as well as we could." Auburn's win might have been enough literally to make Coach Dooley sick. The former Auburn .quarterback and coach collapsed in the dressing room following the game as he prepared to talk to writers. Coach Jordan's personal physician, Dr. Nick Wheeler, was nearby and came to Dooley's aid. He gave him two pills for what turned out to be a stomach cramp, and the Georgia coach was soon okay.

Coach Dooley became the seventh coach Saturday to feel the burden of coaching against the Tigers. Auburn's defensive unit must again stand up and take a bow. While holding the Sun Bowl bound Bull-' dogs to only three points, the defense allowed just 101 yards of total offense, 69 rushing and 32 passing. Three Bulldog quarterbacks could do no better than three completions in 27 attempts with two interceptions. Pat Sullivan pulled to within 68 yards of the all-time Auburn record for total offense in a season. His 137 yards passing and 48 rushing against Georgia give him a total offense of 1647 yards. Former All- America quarterback Travis Tidwell holds the record with 1715 yards, which he attained during his freshman season in 1946. mrnt Panne for Pants People/ The velvet touch reigns supreme for holiday party-goers.

"Alabama has one of their best freshmen teams. They beat Tennessee 35-0 inKnoxville, and Tennessee has been undefeated and had whipped Notre Dame. They have a real balanced attack with several fine quarterbacks and three of the finest split receivers around. Their coaches say they have four or five people who could be playing on the varsity right now." Coach Jones has decided to go with Ted Smith, 6-2 and 179, from Eclectic at quarter back. Brock from Jones Valley will be the back up man. Auburn's injury problems have not been eased by the two-week layoff since the Ole Miss game. "We have lost nearly all of our scholarship linemen due to injuries. Four or five haven't even suited up for a game. This past week we lost fullback Miles Jones with a knee injury. We have, however, made sufficient changes to bolster our interior line positions." Barring no further injuries, Coach Jones feels Auburn will play a respectable game. "We have invited high school coaches and teams throughout the state to the game, and 'se would like to make a good showing." The Auburn freshmen sport a 3-1 record with victories over Florida, Miss. State and Ole Miss. Their only loss was to Georgia. Harriers finish 4th in SEC meet By BERT RICE Auburn's cross country team has captured fourth place in the SEC Championships, with Werner Beirsdoerfer the team's top finisher touring the four mile course in 20 minutes and 6 seconds. Other Auburn placers were Kit Brendle, Jim McAu- JHen's fnfromurafi liffe, Howie Hawkes and John Kipp. Tennessee won the meet followed by Florida and Mississippi. Coach Mel Rosen was disappointed with Auburn's fourth place finish. He put the blame on a canceled meet with Mississippi last week. "We had gotten ready for Ole Miss but the cancellation threw us completely off. We needed that meet to sharpen us but what the boys got was a let down." Last year the Tigers finished fifth in the SEC The cross country season is now over and the first indoor track meet will be the Senior Bowl Invitational December 18 in Mobile. Limb bends with the Snakes By BILL WHITE At the beginning of each season it seems to be a tradition for the intramural s editor to predict the four league winners. Knowing full well my talents as a prognosticator (as witnessed by my last place finish in Out on a Limb) I have stayed as far away from this "shakiest limb" as possible. Now as the regular season comes to a close and the finals are upon us, I feel that I must face the day of reckoning as I venture out on this limb. With eight teams instead of four in the championship race choosing a winner is much more difficult. Even the best teams can have a bad day and with a single elimination playoff this bad day could spell defeat for 'what appears to be the best team. Well, now that I have justified the possibility that my choice may prove incorrect, I may proceed to disclose who in my judgement will be the overall championship winner in the fraternity division. I feel that Sigma Nu will capture this football crown. With a potent offense and a stout defense SN looks as though it will be the one team to escape with their undefeated season intact. The first round of the championship playoffs were played Monday, November 17, with the second round November 18. The championship game will be played today. The first place winners in each league are matched with a second place team in another league for the first round of play. ATO completed the season with a perfect 6-0 record and is matched with BTP, 5-1 for the season, and the second place team in League Four. League' Two was won by a powerful SN team which rounded out a perfect 6-0 record by defeating DC 14-0 and DTD 27-0. SN plays the second place team in League Two in the first round. Second place is held by OTS who defeated KA 18-0 after KA had knocked off KS19-0 as the three way tie for second was broken. Phi Gam captured first place in League Three as they rolled to an undefeated season defeating LCA 26-0 for the Phi Gam's sixth win. PGD is paired with AP, 5-1, the second place team in League Two. PKT, who fought to a 5-1 regular season record, tied for first with BTP. The Intramural Department decided on a coin toss for first place and the coin landed right for PKT as they were awarded first place in League Four. SAE, 4-1 for the season and second place in League One, is the first opponent of PKT. In the Independent Championship battle the Scrubs finished with a perfect 5-0' record in League One and played the second place team in League Two which is ASCE which finished with a 3-1 record. The Dogs, 4-0, won League Two and will play the Hawks, 4-1, the second place team in League Two. League Three in the Dormitory Division was won by Division 61 (6-0) .followed by Division E (5-1). League Four in the Dormitory Division was won by Division "O" (6-0)1. with second place being held by Division "A" (5-1). A three way tie occurred in the Church Division in League Five as Wesley, BSU and APO all finished with 4-1 records. IS THERE LIFE AFTER DEATH l| College Life Bradley Lounge in U.B.

Dunstan's Chapel at 8:15 p.m. Dee. 3 and 4. "Royal Gambit" deals fundamentally with Henry VIII and his six wives, Loveliest of the Plains who all appear on stage simultaneously. In the play Henry VIII represents one type of modern man. The aspects of the modern age develop through the erotic and moral tragicomedy of his life. The historical affairs with the six wives transcend history. But it is not suggested that Henry stalks through history or through the centuries; merely that he and and his wives are aware of the further developments and the logical conclusions of what he began. Thus the sweep into the future occurs effortlessly in dialogue. Dr. Kenneth Campbell, director of the production, said there were two reasons for rendering the play as a reading as opposed to a full production. "First, the current department production 'Stop the World, I Want To Get Off will have just closed and secondly, it is a studio reading that the verbalization of the ideas of the play are uppermost. The play makes Henry and his life relevant to the twentieth century." j The cast for "Royal Gambit" includes: Joan Rue, Emily Katz, Janet McClur-kin, Jane Rushin, Linda Beard, Vallie Me 11 and Rick Pike. Baroque guitar accompaniment will be provided by Mace Glascock. The production will be open to the public. Group places gripe boxes Gripe boxes will soon appear on bulletin boards in various schools and buildings around campus by the Faculty Relations Committee as a student service. The gripe boxes will serve as a collection place for complaints students have about teachers. Letters of complaint will be reviewed by the Faculty Relations Committee and if found valid, a committee member will talk to the in structor. Students are ask ed, to talk over the problem with the teacher before The Faculty Relations Committee also is planning a student-faculty talk session in Haley Center during winter quarter. Students and teachers will be able to talk about their curriculum likes and dislikes and offer suggestions for change. The suggestions may be referred to the curriculum committee which meets once a year to review and revise the curriculum.

The Glom Beauty Ball was not held this year because the funds allocated for it were not sufficient to make it a big event. Since the public does not select the beauties, the selection does not need to be a public affair, said Liz Garber editor of the Glom. Fifty-three girls were nominated by various groups and organizations. On Nov 5, selection of the semi finalists was made on the basis of two 5X7 photographs, one face and one full-length in semi-formal dress. Natural beauty, photo-genity, sense of style, figure and overall appearance were the five catagories in which the girls were judged. Semi-finalists chosen by a student-faculty panel, besides those chosen as Glom beauties, were Andy Adams Jeannie Cobble, Debbie Davis, June Dean, Peggy Dockery, Mary Ann Hughes Kay Jennings, Angela John son, Ginger Vernon and Hed dy White. Final judging consisted of five minute informal interviews and individual and group evening dress competition. Judging was followed by a reception featuring entertainment by the Kappa Pickers. Final judges were Mrs. Phil Adams of Opelika; Chris Akin, Miss Auburn of 1966; Robert A. Lee of Columbus, director of publicity and public relations for the Miss Georgia Pageant in 1969; Charles A.

Tigers ready to go Astro-bowling;
bowl ticket orders being taken
By ED RUZIC
The Tigers are going bowling
over the Christmas holidays
in the biggest bowling
alley in the world-the Astrodome
in Houston, Texas.
The Athletic Department
has begun accepting orders for
tickets for Auburn's appearance
in the Dec. 31 Astro-Bluebonnet
Bowl football game against the
University of Houston.
According to Director of Ticket
Sales Bill Beckwith there
should be enough tickets available
for all students interested
in attending the game. Tickets
Debate gets $2,007;
9ther funds allotted
By CYNTHIA CRIM
iThe Auburn Debate Team has been alloted $2,007 of previously
unallocated student activities fee funds.
"The Board of Allocations, in its meeting Tuesday, also approved
$192.50 for men's intramural
sports and okayed
funds for two new programs-thV
Auburn Engineer and the
Auburn Review, according to Dr.
Etoyd Vallery, board chairman.
".^Receiving student activities
funds for the first time, the Auburn
Engineer, a magazine published
by students in the School
of. Engineering, was granted
S^42. The Auburn Review, a
campus literary magazine, was
given $440. The two magazines
will be required to meet standards
set by the Board of Student Publications
before receiving the
funds allocated.
The Board of Allocations withheld
action on a request from
the Architecture and Fine Arts
Council for funds to finance an
environmental structure and an
art supplement to The Plainsman.
The council had asked for $2,544.
Dr. Vallery said action on this
request would be taken in the*
near future.
Six campus organizations had
requested funds from the unallocated

Football Coach Ralph "Shug"
Jordan and Athletic Director
Jeff Beard announced the acceptance
of the Astro-Bluebon-net
invitation Monday morning.
"In behalf of the team", Jordan
said, "We are looking foward
to meeting Houston in the Astrodome.
They have a tough team
and it should be a good game."
The Cougars, whose home
field is the Astrodome has a
6-2 record with games remaining
against Wyoming and Florida
State, after being ranked number
one in Playboy Magazine's preseason
poll. In this week's Associated
Press poll Houston
is ranked 19th.
Coach Bill Yeoman's Cougars
are noted for their offense. They
have backed up the claim of
"Football's Greatest Show" by
leading the nation in total offense
for the last three years.
Last year's 562 yards per game
was an all-time NCAA record.
The Astro-Bluebonnet Bowl,
in it's 11th year, is being played
in the Astrodome for the second
time. From 1959-67 the game was
played in nearby Rice Stadium,
but last year's SMU-Oklahoma
contest was moved to the artificial
turf of Judge Roy Hofheinz'
(Mr. Astrodome) palace.
The game will be broadcast
on national television beginning
at 6-6:30 p.m..
SGA seeks repayment
for Stones' concert f oulup
By BEVERLY BRADFORD
The Student Government
Association is negotiating
with the William Morris Agency
for out-of-court settlement
of costs incurred by the SGA
due to neglect on the part of
the Rolling Stones in connection
with their appearance
here last Friday.
The exact amount of the
extra costs has not been determined
said SGA President David
Hill. It resluted from overtime
salaries for lighting crews,
electricians, Pinkerton guards,
policemen, stage hands and
• others who worked up to seven
hours when both Stones' performances
were delayed.
In addition, the SGA absorbed
the cost of transporting the
Stones' lighting and sound equipment
from Columbus, Ga. to
Auburn at the group's last-minute
request. The contract between
Auburn and the Stones
had specified that the group
would be. responsible for sending
their equipment to Auburn.
The equipment was six and
a half hours late arriving in
Auburn,.resulting in the program
delays during which thousands
of ticket holders waited outside
Memorial Coliseum in freezing
temperatures.
The show scheduled for 6:30
p.m. was delayed until 9:30,
and the 10 p.m. show was delayed
until 12:30 a.m. It ended
at 3 a.m. Special late permission
was granted to the co-eds who
attended.
SGA Popular Entertainment
Director Jette Campbell had
expected the Stones' equipment
to arrive in Auburn at noon Friday
and a crew was ready to
receive it at that time.
But at 11 a.m., a Stones representative
called from Tuscaloosa
and asked Campbell
to send three trucks and 12
workers to Columbus, Ga. ito
pick up the equipment. The
Stones were to bear the cost,
but failed to do so.
The equipment arrived in Auburn
at 5:30 p.m., one hour before
the first show was to begin.
According to Campbell, it takes
between three and five hours to
assemble the equipment. The
contract stated that the Stones
would not play without it.
Stage hands hurriedly assembled
the equipment but could not
-overcome the initial delay.
While students waited for the
program to begin, it was an-announced
that Chuck Berry would
substitute for the Ike and Tina
Turner Revue, originally scheduled
for the program.
Terry Reid, another performer
in the show, did not appear in
the second show because Berry's
act ran overtime. The contract
guaranteed the appearance
of the Stones, but not of the other
acts.
No advance notice was given
the SGA of the substitution of
Berry.
The Stones came to Auburn
from Dallas, Tex., where they
performed Thursday night. Auburn
was the tenth of 14-Bt6ps
included in the 16-day tour.
About 12,000 tickets were
sold for the shows for a gross
of $44,000. The fee for the show
was $35,000. Campbell said other
expenses would run between
$6,000 and $8,000, but exact
cost and the profit, if any, will
not be known for at least a month.
He said, "We are sorry about
the delays, but we hope that
students will understand they
were beyond our control."
"We were mainly concerned
with getting the Stones here* and
getting the money to pay theml
The Stones show set a precedent
for big-came entertainment
at Auburn," he added.
SGA President David Hill
said, "We understand the problems
which caused the delay.
There were just too many people
and too much equipment to be
moved in one day."
At some of the other stops on
the tour, the shows ran as late
as 6 a.m.. Hill said.

University Senate OKs
residence requirement
By JANE DICKERSON
A proposal requiring a minimum of 45 hours in residence
study to be graduated was passed Tuesday afternoon by the
University Senate.
Among other proposals brought before the body, one granting
transfer of academic credit to
high school students completing
college level courses
at a junior college prior to
graduation was passed and a
proposal increasing the number
of the University Senate was defeated.
The passed residence proposal
states that a student must
earn a minimum of 45 hours during
his final year and in his curriculum
while in residence. The
student's .dean may waive his
final year's residence in a specific
curriculum and grant up to
20 hours of credit earned elsewhere,
but a student must complete
at least 45 hours in residence
before he can be graduated.
The old residence rulei
stated that a student had to have
been enrolled in the specific curriculum
of graduation for three
quarters and had to have completed
the hours required 'for the
last year of work.
The second proposal passed
by the University Senate states
that a high school student completing
college level courses before
graduation can transfer full
credit for these courses if he
does not use them to fulfill his
high school graduation requirements.
To receive credit, he
must have a "C" average in the
course and be sure that the
course is acceptable to the curriculum
he chooses.
Vote on the 1970-71 University
calendar was delayed until
the January senate meeting.
munication. The time and place
for his speech has not been announced.
In 1966 he was awarded the
Pulitzer Prize for the biography
"A Thousand Days," the story
of Kennedy in the White House.
His other works include "The
Bitter Heritage," "Congress and
The Presidency," "Paths of
American Thought" and "Kennedy
or Nixon." Schlesinger
has made appearances on Face
the Nation and Meet the Press.
The topic of communication is
being divided into three issues:
communication between students
and administration, blacks and
whites, and U.S. and Russia.
"We hope to help bridge these
communication gaps for some
through our efforts to inform and
stimulate discussion during the
conference" said Mark Marsh,
ACOIA chairman.
The conference, now in its
twelfth year, is scheduled for
Feb. 15 through March 7. "We
changed the conference to winter
quarter and spread it out;
in the past it was limited to a
three day symposium. The longer
conference should encourage
more student participation because
there won't be as many
class conflicts. Students used
to miss classes to attend the
programs," said Marsh.
"We also felt the spring weather
when the conference was
held last year hurt us since students
preferred being at Chewacla
to attending programs," added
Marsh.
Letters have been sent to
clergymen, businessmen, faculty
members and the administration
around Auburn inviting them
to attend the conference. "We
are encouraging more participation
from the general community
this year," said Marsh. "We
used to concentrate just on the
students."
Major colleges and universities
in Alabama, Georgia and
Florida as well as every high
school in Alabama have been invited
to participate in ACOIA.
Besides the schedule change,
the conference is emphasizing
more informal discussion groups.
Talks will be scheduled at banquets,
fraternity houses and sorority
chapter rooms. If finances
allow, 360 degree projection movies
relating to the understanding
of communication will also be
shown.

JUMPING FOR JOY
Coed Jan Lewis takes the plunge
Coed Jon Lewis
loves rappelling
down steep cliffs
- Blonde, prettily petite and she jumps off cliffs!
• Jan Lewis, 2SED, is crazy about "rappelling," a sport
that involves sliding down a rope off a cliff or other steep
structure.
"It's just like flying," Jan, 19, exclaimed, "and the
only catch is I don't get to go often enough!"
g Rappelling is a popular sport in the Swiss Alps, but Jan
;"has to limit her sporting to the Little Grand Canyon near
'Columbus, Ga. since she says there aren't any "nice"
"cliffs any closer.
J.- Jan, says that she was introduced to rappelling by other
l^ubum students whqse interest had been ^spurred »by an
Advanced Counter Gue'rillct program.' '
5 "Allyou need is some strong rope to slide down, some
^lender rope to make a 'Swiss seat', and welders' gloves
\o protect against rope burns," Jan explained. The "Swiss
;$eat" is a rope girdle that the rappeller wears around the
;hips, and is tied to the rope the rappeller slides down.
£ An 85-foot cliff is the highest jump Jan has taken, and
3t proved to be quite an experience.
:• Being her first jump, Jan was nervous and asked for the
^instructions over and over again. "They told me to hold the
^rope tightly," she laughed, "but as soon as I jumped, I
rforgot.
r "I fell flat on my back, hanging upside down about 75
::feet up in the air! You can't imagine how glad I was to get
:back on the ground!"
J Jan said the experience did not put a damper on her enthusiasm,
though, and she is anxious to rappell every chance
:%he gets.
r; An avid fan of flying, Jan also yearns to pilot a plane and
fto parachute. Size prevents her from parachuting now--at
:a mere 94 pounds, she feels she's 11 pounds shy of qualifying.

Brennan has appointed
the following chairman to
the drives: Johnny Williams,
All-Campus Christmas Party;
Cheryl Lehman, All-
Campus Fund Drive; and
Kyle Johnson, SGA co-chairman
of the Blood Drive.
The All-Campus Christmas
Party will provide entertainment
, refre shments
and gifts for the underprivileged
children. Approximately
500 gifts are expected
to be contributed to the
party from students and campus
organizations. The party
will begin at 7 p.m.
The All Campus Fund
Drive is tentatively set for
Jan. 29-Feb. 3. Several
changes have been made in
the drive. Projects will be
reduced from a one week to
a two or three day period.
The total contributions
from the drive will be distributed
in a different manner.
In order to better affect
Auburn and the Auburn-
Opelika area, half of this
year's contributions will be
allocated to local charities
and deserving organizations
in the Lee County area. The
other half may be put into
the present Student Loan
Fund, or a new SGA student
scholarships fund.
Competition between
organizations will be emphasized
with a larger and-.-broad--
Si* Carnival.
The blood Drive has come
under much criticism in past
years in relation to the destination
of the donations.
To alleviate this problem
the SGA will conduct the
Blood Drive jointly with the
Pharmacy Department spring
quarter. This year's donations
will be directed to the
Southeastern area, particularly
areas ravaged by Hurricane
Camille.
"As is easy to see, the
whole aspect of Campus
Drives this year has been
changed,'' said Brennan.
The donations, whether toys,
money or blood, will be used
in our immediate area.
Through these drives, Auburn
hopes to recognize and
help alleviate the needs and
problems of our area.''

Contact lenses were designed
to be a convenience. And
they are up to a point. They're
convenient enough to wear,
once you get used to them, but,
until recently, you had to use
two or more different lens solutions
to properly prepare and
maintain contacts. You
needed two or three different
bottles, lens cases, and
you went through more than
enough daily rituals to make
even the most steadfast individuals
consider dropping out.
But now caring for your contacts
can be as convenient as
wearing them. Now there's Len-sine,
from the makers of Murine.
Lensine is the one lens solution
designed for complete contact
lens care . . . preparing, cleansing,
and soaking.
Just
a drop or
two of Lensine
before
you insert
your lens prepares
it for
your eye. Lensine makes your
contacts, which are made of
modern plastics, compatible
with your eye. How? Lensine
is an "isotonic" solution.
That means it's
made to blend with the
eye's natural fluids. So
a simple drop or two jj
coats the lens, forming a
sort of comfort zone around
it.
Cleaning your contacts
with Lensine fights
bacteria and foreign deposits
that build up during
the course of the day.
And for overnight soaking,
Lensine provides a
handy contact canister on
the bottom of every bottle. Soaking
your contacts in Lensine between
wearing periods assures
you of proper lens hygiene.
Improper storage between
wearings permits the growth of
bacteria on your lenses. This is a
sure cause of eye irritation and,
in some cases, it can endanger
your vision. Bacteria cannot grow
in Lensine. Lensine is sterile, self-sanitizing,
and antiseptic.

Moratorium debate
success, Sanders says
The open forum on Vietnam was termed "very successful"
by Joseph Sanders, head of the Auburn Human Rights Forum,
as more than 500 students, faculty and townspeople filled
Langdon Hall Nov. 13, to discuss the war.
The informal forum was sponsored by the Auburn Veterans
Association and the Human which appeared in last week's
Rights Forum to allow discussion
on the war in Vietnam
and to generate interest
in world affairs by students.
The forum was opened by
Sanders and Robert Young,
head of the AVA, who read
their groups' policy statements
SGA rents
150 of 500
refrigerators
Refrigerator rentals, a student
service sponsored by the
Student Government Association,
has so far been successful
according to SGA Pres.
:David Hill.
The SGA office has already
rented 150 of the 500 refrigerators
which are available to students.
Most of the renters have
been girls.
Hill said, "The only problem
we have had is with the delivery.
The refrigerators are delivered
within 10 days, but the student
must be present when they are
brought, which may cause some
inconvenience."
The • refrigerator rental ser-
-vice was set up this fall for the
.first time by SGA. Refrigerators

^Products at S36 per school year.

Plainsman. The discussion was
then opened to the audience.
The opinions of those who
opposed the war centered a-round
the contention that the
war is immoral and that the
way Americans are fighting the
war is immoral. These ideas were
supported mainly by a former
member of the Army who was
wounded in Vietnam. This man
agreed wholeheartedly with the
anti-war demonstrators and
discussed the "atrocities" committed
by the American Army
in the warl
A sergeant presently in the
Army, stood and agreed completely
with the ex-soldier.
Argument on the side of the
AVA centered around patriotism
and the validity of protest that
is currently being carried out,
but Sanders said, "This movement
is very patriotic. We are
legally voicing our objections
to the war."
Chuck Taylor, secretary of
academic affairs and organizer
of the open forum, deemed the;
forum a complete success but
regretted that the discussion
became too emtoional at times.
No definite agreements were
reached in the discussion but
participation was very active.
"The discussion could have
lasted much longer," said Taylor,
"but we had to close the
discussion due to lack of time."
No definite plans have been
made for a similar forum in
January, but, "the response
was so favorable by the students,"
said Young, that we
can plan on having another for-urn.

ROTC- Dr. Littleton
All men students who have
not completed six quarters
of ROTC should schedule in
winter quarter according to
Dr. Taylor D. Littleton, dean
of undergraduate studies.
Dr. Littleton's memorandum
clarified administration of the
Board of Trustees, resolution
to make basic ROTC voluntary.
Dr. Littleton's statement was
released Monday following the
Board's action on Nov. 7.
The Trustees' resolution said
that credit will be given for
ROTC and that the University
reaffirms ROTC's importance
and pledges continued coopera -
tion to the Department of Defense
in its ROTC program.
Those who have completed
four quarters or less should continue
ROTC in the spring,
according to the memorandum.
In addition, deferred or unscheduled
quarters will be completed
on a one to one basis
before a student may graduate.
Each undergraduate dean or
acting head confirmed intention
of following Dr. Littleton's policy.
Reactions from military commanders
have shown support of
the Board's decision.
Col. Andrew Lamar, USA,
professor of military science,
said that the ROTC unit would
"support 100 per cent the university's
decisions. The Department
of Defense (DOD)
policy provides for the type of
program desired by the university.
We give to the best of our
ability what they prefer and
DOD doesn't state what is preferred."
Col. Ritchie P. Stimpson,
USAF, professor of aerospace
studies, said, "We in the Air
Force ROTC program will support
the university, the president,
the Board of Trustees and
all decisions."
"I sincerely believe that a
student taking ROTC can hardly
fail to benefit from a two-year
exposure to this training
. . . However, I do feel that
. . . the student should have
the option of taking advantage
of this training if he so desires
it," said Capt. David A. Barks -
dale, USN, professor of naval
science. "The Navy ROTC
fully supports the action of the
Board of Trustees regarding the
status of ROTC at Auburn,"
he continued.
Dean J. Grady Cox, dean of
engineering, said, "lam pleased
to see the action by the Board
of Trustees. Now the student
has an honest opinion."

Students will gaiher in front
of the library at 3 p.m. to begin
the demonstration with signs to
designate each groups. The
Chamber of Commerce parade,
complete with bands, floats and
Santa, will begin at Glendean
Shopping Center at 2 p.m. The
two groups will meet at the corner
of Glenn and Gay streets and
then will march together through
downtown and back to the library,
where they will "sit-in
for Santa."
A 30-foot Christmas tree in
front of the library will be lighted
by Santa and Miss Auburn,
Ginger van Hooser. Gifts will
be placed in receptacles under
the tree and carols will be sung.
A community spirit trophy will
will be awarded to the group
with the best participation and
most originality. Campus organizations
will take gifts to the
Welfare Office in Opelika.
"We're looking for sororities,
fraternities and independent
organizations to support the
demonstration," added Wilkow-sky.
"It won't be any good unless
we get a multitude of people
out there.
"Instead of demonstrating
against something, students will
have the opportunity to demonstrate
for something " Wilkow-sky
said.

A paint-in will be held at the

to paint up signs and banners to
be used in the demonstration.
"The city is behind this demonstration
all the way." said
Wilkowsky. "and we're aiming

to show people that Auburn students
are a little different from

Student committee work important
Recently, David Hill, Student Government
Association president, called
a meeting of all students appointed
to joint student-faculty and University
committees. The purpose of the
meetings was to discuss the important
role that the students have on
these committees and to aid them in
effectively carrying out their responsibilities.
However, of the approximately
70 students on these committees,
only 10 came to the meeting.
The unfortunate situation is that
some of these students sometimes
also fail to attend their regular committee
meetings. When they do this,
they hurt the attempts made by other
students to improve the decision-maK-Farm-
City Week
This week, the Schools of Agriculture
and Business are sponsoring a
Farm-City Week to recognize the growing
partnership between two areas
of our economy-business and farming.
This partnership is needed to
meet the challenge of a rapidly increasing
world population in the next
few years. The faculty and students
in these two schools should be commended
for their outstanding work
in helping to solve the problems of
feeding a hungry world. There are
not many way«to achieve world peace
than with full stomachs.
mg role of students within the University.
It is true that some students
do not attend the meeting because the
faculty chairmen fail to inform them
of the meeting time and place. Most
of the time, however, the students
fail to realize the importance of their
position and find something else to
do instead of attending the meeting.
A recent meeting of the Allocations
Board had to be postponed because
one of the student members just forgot
about it and did not come.
Auburn students have been more
fortunate than students at many other
schools. They are represented on
most of the major committees that
maice decisions affecting students.
On several committees, they hold
equal or majority representation. However,
there are areas such as the Fraternities
and Curriculum Committees
where more stuaent representation is
needed. When student leaders go to
Pres. Harry RL Philpott to request
this, their position is hurt by the poor
response from students on committees.
We think that Hill's decision to
remove any student who misses two
committee meetings is a good one.
This may inspire them to do a more
effective job. Auburn students will
not be allowed to assume a larger
role within the University until they
are willing and able to assume the
responsibility.
Larger student activity fee needed
When the Allocations Board met
Tuesday to consider student requests
for a share of the approximately
$5,500 in unallocated student activity
fees, it quickly became apparent
that there was not enough money a-vailable
to meet a third of the requests.
The total amount requested
by the six s t u d e n t groups was
$17,199. When the decisions were
made, two groups, the Architecture
and Fine Arts Council and the Soccer
Club, had received nothing and
Men's Intramurals had received only
a fraction of its $4,500 request.
The Debate Team, which had suffered
a reduction in its budget last
spring, fared the best, receiving approximately
80 per cent of its request.
It should be noted here that only a-bout
$3,400 of the total available
was allocated.
The biggest problem is that all of
these piograms u, . ^ . t as much support
as possible. They all make valuable
contributions LU the total educational
experience at Auburn. But, if
there is no money available, there is
little the University can do.
Since the funds come from the student
activity fees, the obvious solution
would be to raise them. In a
sense, this has already been done.
The student activity fees are part of
the total University fee paid by each
student. The Board of Trustees recently
approved a 25 per cent increase
in these for next year. How much of
this increase will go to student activities
will not be decided until the
budget preparation next spring.
The present student activity fee
is $6.50 per quarter, one of thelowest
in the South. With the growing number
of student services and projects,
a substantially greater amount of
money will be needed. For the fullest
development of Auburn and its
students, Pres. Harry M. Philpott and
the administration should seriously
consider a meaningful increase.

Easy Rider...
presents life's harsh realities
The people, mainly college
students, filing out of
the theatre that night were
not like most movie-goers.
There was no buzz of conversation
and small talk about
how good the movie was or
which actor was best. They
were silent for the most part.
Submerged in their own
thoughts, they drifted out into
the cold, dark night leaving
the Celluloid - encased
bodies and burning machines
of Easy Rider behind them.
The movie could not be
easily digested in a few,
quick thoughts. Comprehension
and understanding came
the next day only after
talks with others who also
attempted to probe into the
depths of Easy Rider and
find its meanings. The exchange
of differing ideas
helped to crystalize several
thoughts concerning the
movie and what might be its
message.
Most people who saw the
show agreed that it was not
one where it could be said,
"I liked it," However, it
was meaningful because it
vividly created an experience
of sight and sound that is
By Brute
all too true in today's society.
Where most motion pictures
appear just a little bigger
than life really is, Easy Rider
comes unusually close
to the realities of alienated
youth who seek something
better in the American way-of-
life but cannot find it.
It is this closeness to the
truth about what really happens
in this nation that makes
the movie so upsetting and
so tragic. The characters
are real. We live and work
with their counterparts in
our own lives. We have heard
the same words which were
spoken on the screen. The
actions have happened before
and will probably happen
again. And these words
and actions show too clearly
that, in spite of our high
ideals and lofty words, often
we do not allow others the
freedom we praise so highly.
In our society, which
has so long required conformity
to its rules and standards,
many of its members
cannot understand why some
young people so easily rebel
against the straight world.
What these people, who stand
on the other side of the gen-
Disappointment in Stones
obscures SGA's success

eration gap, do not realize is
that unquestioning obedience
to the set patterns of society
has tended to blind them to
the ineqities caused by
society. Young people have
seen them, and they are appalled.
Because the young people
are different and because
they fail to conform to the
standards, many adults have
reacted with fear and distrust.
Rather than attempt
to aid youth as they search
for the good in our society
in order to put it to use,
the older generation has wanted
to supress many of the
actions of youth.
Because of the conformity
and sameness of society,
most of its members are not
free in the sense that the
young men in Easy Rider
were free. This freedom, too
much freedom for many people,
grated on their narrow-minded
concepts. Because they
did not understand it, they
had to destroy it and the
young men who represented
it.
As the lawyer said in the
movie, people are not free
in spite of how much they
talk about it, and when they
see it, they become dangerous.
It killed Captain America
and Billy.
Another tragedy that unfolds
across the landscape
of America is the search of
the two young men for something
in life that would make
theirs complete. They knew
that somewhere, there existed
something in our society
which would be the life they
sought. It was obvious, however,
that they did not know
exactly what it was they
wanted. They thought the
Mardi gras was the answer.
They did not realize until
too late that artificial fun
and tripping out was not the
truth they hoped to find.
So many of today's youth
have the same problem. They
want a better way of life; a
more meaningful and relevant
one than what they find in
our present, often hypocritical
society. Unfortunately, they
lack the experience to set
their own course, and their
parents, tied to their own
goals, have not always been
able to help them. Therewas
no one to help the young and
dying men in Easy Rider.
As the theatre emptied, we
went from reality into reality.
I wonder if there was a
change?
Last Friday's Rolling Stones show was
l l V 4*M W widely touted in its planning stages as a
test to see if Auburn, given a facility such as Memorial Coliseum,
could accomodate popular entertainment on a large
scale.
Student Government Association officials, who had hoped
only to break even, expect ty entertainment,
instead to realize a profit „SGA h a s t h e leadership to
from the show. direct s u c h a n effort<
The financial success of
the Stones show, however,
has been obscured by poor
Stones' management, which
resulted in inexcusable delays
in both performances.
without advance notice to
SGA, Chuck Berry was substituted
for the Ike and Tina
Turner Revue. Though the
contract allowed for such a
change, that legality did not
prevent the disappointment
of the audience, which was
compounded in the second
show when Terry Reid did
not perform because Berry's
act ran too long.
The first show, scheduled
by contract for 6:30 p.m.,
began instead at 9:30 p.m.;
the 10 p.m. show was delayed
until 12:30 a.m. Meanwhile
thousands waited outside
the Coliseum in freezing
temperatures for the performances
to begin.
The tliree-fioilr deiiiy can
be credited fully to the Stones.
Their equipment, some
SI.5 million worth, was six
and a half hours late arriving.
Stage crew workers had two
pressure factors with which
to cohtend-the race against
time, and the rudeness of the
Stones' stage managers.
The contract placed the responsibility
for transport of
the equipment to Auburn solely
on the Stones. The group
failed to meet that requirement,
then failed to compensate
for the added costs
which Auburn incurred in
meeting it for them.
The Stones' difficulties
were apparently due to the
frantic pace of their tour
schedule. In 16 days, they
played in 14 different cities.
No time was allowed for unexpected
delays and by the
tenth day of the tour when the
group arrived in Auburn, they
were well behind schedule.
Student dissatisfaction
with the delays and changes
in the two shows is certainly
justified, but it must
be properly directed--at the
Stones rather than at SGA.
For several years, lack of
space has prevented the billing
of top performers at Auburn.
But the Stones show,
despite its many flaws, proved
that-
--Auburn and its environs can
produce an audience of sufficient
size to bear the substantial
entertainment fee demanded
by a top group.
-The administration is not
only willing, but eager to
help students obtain quali-
There were many lessons
to be learned from Auburn's
Stones experience, and they
were well taken by those who
worked tirelessly for weeks
to produce the show.
The poor organization and
management of the Stones and
their entourage was not necessarily
exemplary of all big-name
performers.
If student support of SGA's
entertainment program is undermined
by disappointment
in the Stones, the result could
be catastrophic for the future
of popular entertainment at
Auburn. "MY pOiOt i0U HO? AG0MIZIN6 ANP JitfT TURN fH£ PA&V
Greek changes needed
The following is one of a series of
"Campus Perspective" articles written
I by administrators, faculty members and
j student leaders at Auburn University.
I Phil Cuba, Interfraternity Council vice-l
president for rush, is this week's guest
; columnist.
By PHIL CUBA
Many opponents of the fraternity system
! accuse fraternities of no longer having any
! relevance to a college education. They
\ claim that fraternities are dead or at least
dying. Nothing could be farther from the
truth. Since 1940 the number of established
fraternity and sorority chapters has more
; than doubled. Fraternity leaders are finding
: they cannot keep pace with the needs of the
• more thaa 400 institutions which are asking
\ fraternities and sororities to establish chap-i
ters on their campuses. The fact is that
j fraternities and sororities have survived
wars, campus unrest and criticism for al-
\ most two centuries.
Yet these critics are not entirely wrong,
; for the truth is that the Greek system does
\ have some serious problems, and those
j who care must act now. Certainly, the basic
: ideals of Greek life-love, friendship and
I brotherhood are not going out of style. The
I problems obviously do not lie in these ba-
\ sic concepts; instead it's in the applica-
\ tion, style, image and self-concept of the
I individual Greek.
\ If the deepest values of the system are
[Mo be maintained, some external aspects
I must be re-vamped, for it is these details
I that are under fire for their decay.
One of these problems has been the often
I misleading image of fraternity life which
I rushees see during the few days of formal
I rush each fall. They are not able to meet
I the brothers and learn as much about fra-
I ternities as they need to know. An alterna-
\ tive is needed to counter-act these problems
: of formal rush.
Next week the fraternities must vote on
I the adoption of an "open" summer rush
program. A recent position statement is- 1
sued by the Fraternity Secretaries Asso- 1
ciation of the National Interfraternity Con- I
ference endorsed any open rush system 1
with a minimum of restrictive rules. The |
proposed rush system is patterned after 1
the system first used by the award-winning 1
Interfraternity Council at Kansas State Uni- I
versity where there are no restrictions on I
rush. Most fraternity experts agree that I
open rush has several advantages over the 1
conventional or "closed" rush, and sta- §
tistics seem to verify this opinion. One of
the major benefits of summer rush is the
necessity it creates for individual contact,
often in the home of the rushee. This usually
sells the fraternity system to both the
rushee and his parents. Too often in closed
rush parents are never contacted and sometimes
do not know what will be expected
of their son as a fraternity member. Also,
men who pledge in the summer have had
more time to meet the men in the fraternity
i
and fully contemplate their decision. On I
the other hand closed rush leaves the rush- i
ee only four or five days in which to select |
a fraternity and decide whether or not to I
pledge. These factors and others have re- j
suited in an increase in number of men |
pledged, while decreasing the number off
men depledging on campuses where open||
rush has been in effect.
Now is the time for all Auburn fraternity |
men to examine our present rush system and §
evaluate its advantages and disadvantages. |
Hopefully, we will not allow the stagnation
of rush practices to destroy our frater- j
nity system.
Fraternities are desperately in need of -
change, and this change must eventually 1
come, but why wait until it's too late?
forgotten?...
Spiro Agnew--
an actual
unknown
By Beb Payne
Before Spiro T. Agnew took
office as President Nixon's
second-in-command, the vice-presidency
was a post for a
forgotten man. Agnew, however,
is a man who refuses
to be forgotten.
The oratory of the Vice-
P r e s i d e n t ,
changed- little
from the
"fat Japs
and Pol-acks''
of the
campaign
trail, is grabbing
headlines
and air
time on the
news media
across the
country. Following the Oct.
15 Vietnam moratorium,
Agnew called the war protestors
"an effete corps of
impudent snobs who characterize
themselves as intellectuals."
He then loosed a verbal
barrage against Sen. Edmund
S. Muskie, accusing the Maine
Democrat of playing "Russian
roulette with U.S.
security" by promoting a
unilateral halt to tests of
strategic weapons. And in
his latest linguistic sally,
Agnew blasted the television
networks, calling their news
coverage biased«
Senate majority leader
Mike Mansfield professed to
be "embarrassed" with the
Vice-President's conduct,
and New York Sen. Jacob
Javits said that no one had
"ever accused Agnew of being
all that brillant." A letter
writer in The Washington
Post opined that Agnew had
"once again put effete in his
mouth."
Why does the Vice-President
lay himself open for
cri ticism with his comments
on issues and affairs? The
New York Times offered a
multiple-choice answer to
the question: (a) Agnew is
acting as the President's
"hatchet man" (b) he is
demonstrating naivete about
national politics; (c) he is
helping to prove the Administration
really does believe in
open dissent; or (d) none
of the above.
Circle answer (d), for Agnew
is simply Agnew. He has
been described as opinionated,
bigoted and narrow-minded.
Some critics have called him
a man who loves the taste of
his own shoe leather. Many
of his colleagues in the Nixon
administration say he is
intensely loyal; a firmbeliev-er
in the traditional American
virtues.
And all of these comments
and criticisms may be true.
Agnew is a man in a high
office with strong views on
the major issues of the day,
and he isn't afraid to express
his opinion.
Agnew, though, does seem
to speak for a fair portion
of the American people. His
stand behind the President
on the conduct of the Vietnam
war was echoed by 77
per cent of the persons surveyed
in a recent Gallup
poll. And after his speech
condemning the television
networks, mail to radio and
TV stations supported the
Vice-President by a 10 to 1
margin.
So any criticism of Agnew
is also a criticism of a
large part of America. As he
said, "There is a very 'conservative'
current running
through the country at the
present time." And Agnew
is in the mainstream*
Agnew has brought new
life to the office of the
Vice-President. His leadership
of the Space Task Force
helped spell out a set of
national goals for our space
program. His work as liaison
man between the Administration
and mayors and governors
has, on the whole, proved
an asset to communication.
Perhaps his most disappointing
efforts have come
as president of the Senate,
which has been reluctant to
do his bidding.
Agnew admits that he is
not always right, but as h
says, "some you win ai
some you lose, and some f
rained out-in the tears."

I left the interstate for

fields, until I reached the
heart of the red glow, Auburn
University. I was facing
an Auburn style football

After the research centers,
I had expected the
Campus buildings to resemble
barns and the renowned
Haley- Center to sit in a cow
pasture. Instead, I discovered
modern, architectural designs
that showed no hint
of ante-bellum history. All
of these structures were
surrounded by beautiful,
grassy areas that lacked
cow manure. Small pastures,
yes, but landscaped .with
trees, shrubs and fountains.

The Interfraternity Council
will start a scholarship
and loan fund for
fraternity men with the
profit from the Four Seasons
show Nov. 7.
The estimated $2500
will begin a fund to make
scholarships available to
fraternity men who are un-ble
to get aid from the Uni->

Jim Mills, IFC treasurer,
is currently investigating
similar programs at other
universities to aid in setting
up the fund at Auburn.
IFC Pres. Bill Vann said,
"We feel like this is something
that will help individual'
fraternity men and be a real
service to the University."
Gross ticket receipts for
the show totaled about
$11,309. The estimated profit
is far more than any other
group has made sponsoring
entertainment in the Coliseum.

when I entered the Haley
Center. It was like a ten-story
luxury hotel turned
into classrooms and offices.
Then I reminded myself that
buildings didn't make a university.
People had to do it.
So, I decided to meet the
people of AU.
On Friday night 1 saw
black and white students
groove together at a free
Tarns show. It was an everybody
"come as you are"
affair with the Interfrater-
Council picking up the tab.
Here I watched two black
brothers ignite a spontaneous
pep rally, something
I had never seen 'up North.
Also, I was amazed at. white
country- boys screaming for
more of black vocalist Bren-da
B. who appeared with
the Tarns.
On Saturday afternoon I
observed country football
take on the Florida Gators.
An unbelievable three hours
passed. Boy, if dis is country
football, we social footballers
had better beware
on Nov. 29!
I immediately noticed at
the game that Cliff Hare
Stadium didn't have that
Louisville, Ky., odor that
Denny Stadium always has.
These hicks seem to possess
a secret for getting soulful
spirit without preceeding it
with the liquid kind.
That night I was amazed
when all of Auburn's fraternities
opened their victory
celebrations to every student.
A free concert and
open parties, this is the
real brotherhood that fraternities
are always bragging
about.
Sunday at dusk as I left
Auburn, I took a look back.
I wondered over how much
that red glow had diminished
since Friday night.
I guess the cow college
isn't as backwards as I had
thought (and hoped).

Student criticizes
parking problems
Editor, The Plainsman:
Isn't it a shame that Au--
burn students-united at
football games-have to
fight each other (literally)
for parking spaces! This is
especially frustrating when
one looks out a Haley Center
classroom window and
sees a huge empty lot occupied
only by a lone "A-zone"
sign. (The changing
to B-zone will hardly help
those who need it most.)
In my latest encounter
in the proverbial parking
lots (it happens to everybody
sometime) was a fight
to the death and would have
ended in a draw if I had
been willing to sacrifice
my car (visions of explanations
to my insurance man
danced through my head)
A few suggestions may
or may not help:
Observance by all of the
unwritten "laws of the
lots," such as when two
cars are waiting for spaces
on opposite sides of a lot,
one does not pull around into
a space on the opposite
side in front of a car that
has been waiting on that
side.
Prompt dismissal of all
classes on the hour so that
the time needed for people
to get back to their cars
and vacate spaces can be
held to a minimum.
A little application of
Auburn spirit outside the
stadium and some old-fashioned
common courtesy, by
both students and faculty.

COACH JORDAN PRACTICES FOR NOV, 29
Don Pristow and Greg Robert supply the shoulders
By DON EDDINS
It's now official that
Auburn's going to the Astro-
Bluebonnet Bowl to
play Houston, but first
the Tigers have an all-important
engagement
with the University of
Alabama in Birmingham's
'Iron Bowl.'
The Tigers have beaten
Bama and 'The Bear' only
one of the last ten meetings
between the schools, but
if the consensus of the two
team's common opponents
is correct, Auburn is the
odds on favorite this year.
Steve Kiner, the spokesman
of the University of
Tennessee football team
(and Ail-American linebacker),
stated, "If I had to
pick the winner, I'd take
Auburn, but I'd stay away
from picking the game. Alabama
takes a lot of pride
in beating Auburn, so you
have to take into account
the emotional aspect.
"But Auburn is physically
much stronger. The offense
is better balanced. Auburn's
defense is far superior, analyzed
Kiner.
"Hunter is the better
quarterback and Alabama's
execution is better. Alabama
makes up a lot for
their lack of strength with
their execution, but if I
had to pick a winner I'd still
take Auburn because they'
re so far superior physically,"
added Kiner.
Lousiana State Coach
Charlie McClendon stated
outright, "Auburn is the
stronger of the two teams.
Defensively Auburn is far
superior. Hunter is probably
the more polished passer,
but Auburn is better balanced
offensively. But it is
pretty tough to judge the
teams on one ball game."
All-SEC quarterback Tommy
Pharr of Mississippi
State called Auburn "the
better team. We were able
to move the ball up and
down the field against Alabama,
but we couldn't do
that against Auburn.
"The only edge Alabama
might have is experience-wise
at quarterback, but
there's no comparison between
the teams," added
Pharr.
Only Alabama alumnus
Frank Howard of Clemson
would not say that Auburn
was superior. "The day we
played Auburn, you had the
best defense I've seen in a
long time, but I couldn't
speak for a whole season.
I'd rate the game a toss-up.
"It seems that ya'll just
don't think you can beat
Alabama. I've seen years
when it looked like Auburn
had the best team, but there
i s just something about the
game and Alabama always
wins, so I'd have to rate the
game a toss-up," concluded
the Clemson coach.

know you can go to church for the first time in five years
and not worry about an Alabama fan giving you the cow
college or turkey buzzard line.
This day is going to be a platform to stand on for the
next one, two, three, four, or even five years. Yes, it'sgp-ing
to be a happy day. Auburn has beaten Alabama by any
score and anybody was the hero. It doesn't make any difference,
just so we won.
But actually this is only a dream and everybody knows
it. Auburn's class of '64 and '65 both dreamed it for four
years and never saw it come true. The class of '66 has seen

too," Kolen said, "But they wouldn't let me. I ended up
climbing up the light post and getting into the upper deck
of Legion Field. I saw the game from the fifty yard line.
I wasn't too happy after the game and I think I went home
and watched Gunsmoke on TV that night."
Defensive end Dick Ingwersen from Pascagoula, Miss,
had hardly even heard of Auburn. "I used to follow Oie
Miss and Miss. State and I don't think I even knew that Auburn
and Alabama were playing."
So it's easy to see why we may have a hard time knowing
how to celebrate. Some of us can't even remember the game.
But don't worry. We have over a week to decide what
to do-plus a backlog of five years of dreams.

The starting lineup is

HAS TO BE
ByEdRuzh Sports Editor
j . • g i
the dream turn into a nightmare for the last three seasons;
but, according to members of the 1963 team, the team that
last beat Alabama—this has got to be the year. ^
Mailon Kent, the second team quarterback who came off
the bench and threw the winning touchdown in that 10-8
victory said this week, "The '63 and '69 teams are lot
different. Mostly because football was played different.
We didn't throw as many passes back in those days.
"But I think this year's Auburn team should beat Alabama.
We play better as a team than the Tide and we have
better individual players at almost every position."
Jimmy Sidle, Auburn's 1963 All-American thought much
the same way. "Auburn has a better team than Alabama and
if we don't make mistakes it won't even be close. I think
the most outstanding thing about this team is the confidence
they have in Pat Sullivan."
So if these former stars are correct, this is going to be
the year that our dream comes true. But if we do win-what
do we do after that? None of us have ever had the rue
experience, only dreams. Beating Alabama is different and
you can't celebrate in the regular way. You've got to do
something special.
So back to Mailon Kent and Jimmy Sidle. What did they
do after the game in 1963?
"Well we were really happy" Kent said, "becausetrue
were going to the Orange Bowl, too. We almost tore that
dressing room apart. That night we hit every party in Birmingham.
"I forgot exactly what we did," Sidle added, "but I remember
we went to one hell of a party. All of us wanted to
celebrate,"
But meanwhile, what were some of today's players doing
back on that day in 1963.
"I was a little fellow back then," Pat Sullivan said this
week. "I sold cokes at the game and was really happy
when Auburn won."
Unfortunately Mike Kolen had never visited Auburn and

After Georgia victory, Auburn accepted the Astro Bluebonnet invitation
Auburn's personnel best
in conference, says Dooley
By HUGH OWEN
"I thought we played
a pretty good football
game," said Georgia head
coach Vince Dooley following
the Bulldogs'
16-3 loss to Auburn.
"Auburn, I think, has the
best personnel in the league,
and I thought we battled
them as well as we
could."
Auburn's win might have
been enough literally to make
Coach Dooley sick.
The former Auburn .quarterback
and coach collapsed
in the dressing room following
the game as he prepared
to talk to writers.
Coach Jordan's personal
physician, Dr. Nick Wheeler,
was nearby and came to
Dooley's aid. He gave him
two pills for what turned
out to be a stomach cramp,
and the Georgia coach was
soon okay.

Coach Dooley said later,

Coach Dooley became

to feel the burden of coaching

Auburn's defensive unit
must again stand up and
take a bow. While holding
the Sun Bowl bound Bull-'
dogs to only three points,
the defense allowed just
101 yards of total offense,
69 rushing and 32 passing.
Three Bulldog quarterbacks
could do no better than three
completions in 27 attempts
with two interceptions.
Pat Sullivan pulled to
within 68 yards of the all-time
Auburn record for total
offense in a season. His
137 yards passing and 48
rushing against Georgia
give him a total offense of
1647 yards. Former All-
America quarterback Travis
Tidwell holds the record
with 1715 yards, which he

Frosh meet Bama here Saturday
Thursday, Novembei 20, 1969 7- THE AUBURN PLAINSMAN
By HUGH OWEN
Coach Tom Jones is
expecting a "real cliff-hanger"
when the Auburn
freshmen meet Alabama
in Cliff Hare Stadium Saturday
afternoon in the
final game of the season
for both teams.
"Alabama has one of
their best freshmen teams.
They beat Tennessee 35-0
inKnoxville, and Tennessee
has been undefeated and had
whipped Notre Dame. They
have a real balanced attack
with several fine quarterbacks
and three of the finest
split receivers around. Their
coaches say they have four
or five people who could be
playing on the varsity right
now."
Coach Jones has decided
to go with Ted Smith, 6-2
and 179, from Eclectic at
quarter back. Brock from
Jones Valley will be the
back up man.
Auburn's injury problems
have not been eased by the
two-week layoff since the
Ole Miss game.
"We have lost nearly all
of our scholarship linemen
due to injuries. Four or five
haven't even suited up for
a game. This past week we
lost fullback Miles Jones
with a knee injury. We have,
however, made sufficient
changes to bolster our interior
line positions."
Barring no further injuries,
Coach Jones feels Auburn
will play a respectable game.
"We have invited high school
coaches and teams throughout
the state to the game,
and 'se would like to make
a good showing."
The Auburn freshmen
sport a 3-1 record with victories
over Florida, Miss.
State and Ole Miss. Their
only loss was to Georgia.
Harriers finish 4th in SEC meet
By BERT RICE
Auburn's cross country
team has captured fourth
place in the SEC Championships,
with Werner
Beirsdoerfer the team's
top finisher touring the
four mile course in 20
minutes and 6 seconds.
Other Auburn placers were
Kit Brendle, Jim McAu-
JHen's fnfromurafi
liffe, Howie Hawkes and
John Kipp.
Tennessee won the meet
followed by Florida and
Mississippi.
Coach Mel Rosen was
disappointed with Auburn's
fourth place finish. He put
the blame on a canceled
meet with Mississippi last
week.
"We had gotten ready for
Ole Miss but the cancellation
threw us completely
off. We needed that meet
to sharpen us but what the
boys got was a let down."
Last year the Tigers
finished fifth in the SEC

Limb bends with the Snakes
By BILL WHITE
At the beginning of each
season it seems to be a
tradition for the intramural
s editor to predict the
four league winners. Knowing
full well my talents
as a prognosticator (as
witnessed by my last
place finish in Out on a
Limb) I have stayed as far
away from this "shakiest
limb" as possible.
Now as the regular season
comes to a close and the
finals are upon us, I feel
that I must face the day of
reckoning as I venture out
on this limb.
With eight teams instead
of four in the championship
race choosing a winner is
much more difficult. Even
the best teams can have a
bad day and with a single
elimination playoff this bad
day could spell defeat for
'what appears to be the best
team.
Well, now that I have justified
the possibility that
my choice may prove incorrect,
I may proceed to disclose
who in my judgement
will be the overall championship
winner in the fraternity
division.
I feel that Sigma Nu will
capture this football crown.
With a potent offense and
a stout defense SN looks
as though it will be the one
team to escape with their
undefeated season intact.
The first round of the
championship playoffs were
played Monday, November
17, with the second round
November 18. The championship
game will be played
today. The first place winners
in each league are
matched with a second place
team in another league for
the first round of play.
ATO completed the season
with a perfect 6-0 record
and is matched with
BTP, 5-1 for the season,
and the second place team
in League Four.
League' Two was won by a
powerful SN team which
rounded out a perfect 6-0 record
by defeating DC 14-0
and DTD 27-0. SN plays the
second place team in League
Two in the first round. Second
place is held by OTS
who defeated KA 18-0 after
KA had knocked off KS19-0
as the three way tie for second
was broken.
Phi Gam captured first
place in League Three as
they rolled to an undefeated
season defeating LCA 26-0
for the Phi Gam's sixth win.
PGD is paired with AP, 5-1,
the second place team in
League Two.
PKT, who fought to a 5-1
regular season record, tied
for first with BTP. The Intramural
Department decided
on a coin toss for first place
and the coin landed right for
PKT as they were awarded
first place in League Four.
SAE, 4-1 for the season and
second place in League One,
is the first opponent of PKT.
In the Independent Championship
battle the Scrubs
finished with a perfect 5-0'
record in League One and
played the second place team
in League Two which is
ASCE which finished with a
3-1 record.
The Dogs, 4-0, won
League Two and will play
the Hawks, 4-1, the second
place team in League Two.
League Three in the Dormitory
Division was won by
Division 61 (6-0) .followed
by Division E (5-1).
League Four in the Dormitory
Division was won by
Division "O" (6-0)1. with
second place being held by
Division "A" (5-1).
A three way tie occurred
in the Church Division in
League Five as Wesley, BSU
and APO all finished with
4-1 records.

Picking the upsets last week Ed "Quote-Faker"
Ruzic tallied a 10-2 record to vault himself into the
second branch of 'Out on a limb.'
Hugh Owen still enjoys top billing in the pigskin
prognosticating, but his room-mate and fellow Geneva
native Don Eddins carded a 5-7 mark to drop him to a
third place tie with the Old-Pro. With two weeks-one
regular season and the bowl selections-remaining in
the fortune-telling season, Bill White hangs ontofour-th
place while Scott Smith and the Guest bring up
the rear.
Last week's guest, offensive coach Gene Lorendo,
recorded a 8-4 chart, second best for the week. This
week Mailon Kent, Tiger quarterback in Auburn's
10-8 victory over the Crimson Tide in 1963, is making
predictions for the guest slot.
The Mighty Mules from Muhlenberg, fresh from a
42-14' triumph over Franklin and Marshall and nine
other guys, take one Moravian in their season finale.
The Mules, 5-3 so far, were awaiting a bowl bid Monday,
but were left out in the cold, along with a few
other teams.
As the Bird of Paradise probably said, "Don't let
your margarine spoil in the dome."

Theatre fo present
"Royal Gambit'
By LYN BABB
The Department of Theatre will present a studio
reading of "Royal Gambit", a chancel drama, in St".
Dunstan's Chapel at 8:15 p.m. Dee. 3 and 4.
"Royal Gambit" deals fundamentally with Henry
VIII and his six wives,
Loveliest of the Plains
who all appear on stage
simultaneously. In the
play Henry VIII represents
one type of modern
man. The aspects of the
modern age develop through
the erotic and moral tragicomedy
of his life.
The historical affairs with
the six wives transcend history.
But it is not suggested
that Henry stalks through
history or through the centuries;
merely that he and
and his wives are aware of
the further developments
and the logical conclusions
of what he began. Thus the
sweep into the future occurs
effortlessly in dialogue.
Dr. Kenneth Campbell,
director of the production,
said there were two reasons
for rendering the play as a
reading as opposed to a full
production. "First, the current
department production
'Stop the World, I Want To
Get Off will have just closed
and secondly, it is a studio
reading that the verbalization
of the ideas of the play
are uppermost. The play
makes Henry and his life
relevant to the twentieth
century." j
The cast for "Royal Gambit"
includes: Joan Rue,
Emily Katz, Janet McClur-kin,
Jane Rushin, Linda
Beard, Vallie Me 11 and Rick
Pike. Baroque guitar accompaniment
will be provided
by Mace Glascock.
The production will be
open to the public.
Group places
gripe boxes
Gripe boxes will soon
appear on bulletin boards
in various schools and
buildings around campus
by the Faculty Relations
Committee as a student
service.
The gripe boxes will
serve as a collection place
for complaints students
have about teachers. Letters
of complaint will be
reviewed by the Faculty
Relations Committee and
if found valid, a committee
member will talk to the in
structor. Students are ask
ed, to talk over the problem
with the teacher before
The Faculty Relations
Committee also is planning
a student-faculty talk session
in Haley Center during
winter quarter. Students and
teachers will be able to talk
about their curriculum likes
and dislikes and offer suggestions
for change. The
suggestions may be referred
to the curriculum committee
which meets once a year to
review and revise the curriculum.

The beauties who will

The Glom Beauty Ball
was not held this year because
the funds allocated
for it were not sufficient to
make it a big event. Since
the public does not select
the beauties, the selection
does not need to be a public
affair, said Liz Garber
editor of the Glom.
Fifty-three girls were
nominated by various groups
and organizations. On Nov
5, selection of the semi
finalists was made on the
basis of two 5X7 photographs,
one face and one
full-length in semi-formal
dress. Natural beauty, photo-genity,
sense of style, figure
and overall appearance were
the five catagories in which
the girls were judged.
Semi-finalists chosen by
a student-faculty panel, besides
those chosen as Glom
beauties, were Andy Adams
Jeannie Cobble, Debbie
Davis, June Dean, Peggy
Dockery, Mary Ann Hughes
Kay Jennings, Angela John
son, Ginger Vernon and Hed

Final judging consisted
of five minute informal interviews
and individual and
group evening dress competition.
Judging was followed
by a reception featuring entertainment
by the Kappa
Pickers.
Final judges were Mrs.
Phil Adams of Opelika;
