Study committee favors
campus radio station
By SALLY ALLEN
The proposed campus radio
station moved one step closer
to reality Tuesday afternoon.
The committee appointed by
President Harry M. Philpott
voted four to two in favor of a
station.
Voting against the proposal
were Dean of Student Affairs
James E. Foy, chairman of the
committee, and Mike Kolen, cap-
The committee will meet
again today to discuss and vote
on the organization of the sta­tion.
AV/S Workshop to stress
services, not rule changes
The 1970 Associated Women Students Rules Workshop will
stress services to coeds rather than changes in the rules, ac­cording
to Lucy McCord, president of AWS.
"This year more than any other, we are trying to help women
by more than just changing
rules," Miss McCord said.
Miss McCord cited a better
tutoring program, a more ac­tive
Big Sister-Little Sister pro­gram,
elimination of noise in the
dorm, and a new meal ticket pro­posal
as services that will be
considered during the workshop.
SGA selling
Evaluation
booklets
About 1,000 Teacher-Course
Evaluation booklets are pre­sently
being distributed to aid
students in registering for
their summer and fall quarter
courses and instructors.
The 150-page booklet sells
for 75 cents. Booklets may be
purchased at Commons, Haley
Center and the Union Building.
They are also being sold at
fraternity and sorority chapter
meetings and from door-to-door
off campus.
Each booklet offers informa­tion
about content of the course,
required outside class reading
and work, and attendance and
grade policy for 455 courses.
Evaluation is available for six
schools: Agriculture, Arts and
Sciences, Business, Education,
English and Home Economics.
Publication of the booklet
will be financed in part by mon­ey
from Student Government As­sociation
refrigerator rentals.
"But we will have to sell the
booklet to help pay for the cost
of publication," said Sharon
Williams, head of the Teacher-
Course Evaluation student com­mittee.
The cost of publishing the
thousand booklets is $1,170.
About 35 students have worked
since the beginning of fall to
compile and edit the booklet.
The program will begin on May
4, with an open session to hear
proposals for rule changes.
Closed meetings will be May 5
and 6. The AWS Legislature,
composed of all dorm presidents,
vice-presidents, AWS representa­tives
and the executive council,
is in charge of the workshop.
They will examine the present
program to find and correct weak­nesses,
and then plan next
year's program. Miss McCord said
that many girls were moving out
of the dorms, so they will.con­sider
proposals to make dormilife
more comfortable.
Miss McCord also commented
that many ideas were brought
back from the regional IAWS con­vention
held at the University
of Florida, and these too, will
be presented.
"I feel this year's workshop
will be of great significance, be­cause
we want to concentrate
on the positive aspects, rather
than just flipping through the
handbook and changing rules,"
she said.
Rules expected by the offi­cers
to receive the greatest con­sideration
are curfews, pink
slips-information necessary be­fore
leaving the dorm overnight,
freshman apartment permission,
required convocation, and room
inspection.
The AWS officers predict a
gradual liberalization of rules
rather than extreme changes at
this time.
"Auburn should not change
just because other universities
are changing. We should only
change for the betterment of Au­burn
as a whole. Auburn is more
than just students who are pres­ently
enrolled here. We do have
a heritage and each change we
make should reflect put respon­sibility
to Auburn alumni and fu­ture
Auburn students as well as
to the present students," stated
Miss McCord.
"I hope AWS will always be
able to evaluate its programs and
pruposes and proceed with what
is best for all of Auburn's wo-

tain of last year's football team.
• In the first meeting held last
Thursday, Foy recommended that
each aspect of the station be
considered as outlined in a mem­orandum
sent to each member by
President Philpott.
In the memorandum, President
Philpott asked the committee to
consider, whether the campus
should have a radio station, how
the station should be organized
or controlled and what would be
a reasonable cost estimate.
With the most important vote
out of the way, the committee is
now free to study the proposed
station in detail. Today's meet­ing
will concern organization,
and the next will concern the
budget.
Besides Foy and Kolen, com­mittee
members are Dr. Frank Da­vis,
head of the speech depart­ment;
Chris Youtz, SGA treasur­er;
Bob Ware, chief engineer for
ETV and WAUD radio station;
and Ginger Van Hooser, former
Miss Auburn. Elmer Salter, own­er
of WAUD, is serving as a con­sultant.
Commenting on how the sta­tion
should be run, President
Philpott has indicated a prefer­ence
toward academic control.
"The experience of working on
the station needs to be tied in
with academics in order to be
meaningful," he said.
Under the proDosal prepared
by Youtz, the organization of the
radio station would be similar to
that of The Plainsman. The sta­tion
would be student-operated
under the control of the Board of
Communications, formerly the
Board of Publications. A faculty
member would serve as project
director and the highest ranking
student, position would be sta­tion
manager.
"If we do approve the station,"
stated President Philpott, "the
University will have to be held
responsible for it. Thus, we are
making a committment not only
for this group of students, but
for th£ future students."
Commenting on who should
run the station, Philpott said,
"I would have to have someone
on my payroll to have control
over the responsibility of the
station. He would have to be
qualified and gossessa license.''
Youtz said he would like to
have the President's approval
when the Board of Trustees meets
at the end of spring quarter.
"If we cannot get a definite
answer by then, we will just have
another long wait in which we
can do nothing."

"The University cannot be forced to deduct the City's occu­pational

insurance and retire­ment
plans.
Concerning the one per cent
occupational tax passed by the
City Council Jan. 20, President
Philpott said the University
would not withhold the tax while
there is a possibility that some­one
may file a court case on the
tax.
"If a court approves the legal­ity
of the tax, a faculty vote
will decide whether or not the
University will withhold the
tax," he said. "However, the
University will not get involved
in testing the legality of the
tax."
The Council approved the tax
with a 5-3 vote amid controversy
and speeches by townspeople,
faculty members and students
opposing the tax. But the Coun­cil
did approve an amendment to
the tax proposal exempting the
to reveal to the city salaries of
University employees.
Discussing changes in the
University's insurance program
for faculty members, President
Philpott announced benefits
and monthly premiums would be
increased on July 1. Faculty mem­bers
will have the option of re­taining
lower benefits and pre­miums.
He also discussed changes in
the retirement program to in­clude
more faculty members. The
changes will go into effect Sept.
1. President Philpott announced
the Board of Trustees had au­thorized
him to accept bids for
disability coverage for faculty
members.
New officers of the General
Faculty elected Tuesday are
Marshall Baker of the Chemistry
Department, chairman-elect, and
George Brooks of Industrial En­gineering,
secretary-elect.
Concert 'sif-ia'
Campus policemen held back a swarm of en­thusiastic
Steppenwolf fans last Thursday when
they rushed to the front of the Coliseum for a
better view of the group. Approximately 7,500 per­sons
attended the concert. Some 6,500 were Au­burn
students who were admitted free with the
SGA picking up the tab.

SGA calls for change
at annual banquet
By SCOTT GREENHILL
"I hope we can bridge the
gap between students and ad­ministrators,"
said Student
Government Association Pres.
Bob Douglas to approximate­ly
180 persons Friday evening
at the SGA Installation Ban­quet.
Outgoing SGA Pres. David
Hill, in his farewell address,
had conceded that student-fac-culty
and particularly student-administration
cooperation had
been the big stumbling block
of his term.
Douglas read from the ban­quet
program a quote by John
Pace, Board of Trustees mem­ber':
"I believe in being open-minded,
but I don't agree with
giving students too much voice
in the administration. . ."
Douglas said, "This is the
attitude we are trying t o change,''
and tore the program in two. He
said his term in office would
focus on improving student-ad­ministrator
relations and com­munications.
Hill looked to the preamble
of the recently ratified SGA
Constitution for stated goals of
an SGA administration and enu­merated
his administration's
accomplishments and failures
in connection with those goals.
"We have made noble contri­butions,"
he said. "We have
left a heritage of hard work."
Secretary of Academic Af­fairs
Chuck Taylor "welcomed"
the guests to the banquet with
facetious remarks about its
location-the Union Ballroom-and
barbed comments aimed
at Pres. Harry M. Philpott's
refusal to let the SGA spend
extra money to hold the banquet
at the Holiday Inn. Philpott
had said he was not authorized
to spend state money on a ban­quet
in the Holiday Inn when
the War Eagle Food Service had
submitted a lower bid.
Originally, Holiday Inn's hid
was $115 over the one submitted
by the War Eagle Food Service.
'Later, the difference was re­duced
to $36 after renegotiation.
SGA officers maintained that
President Philpott did not have
to accept the lowest bid if it
did not meet, specifications. To
obtain the atmosphere they de­sired
for the banquet, SGA of­ficers
had specified that the
banquet room must be carpeted.
President Philpott would not
approve the Holiday Inn, saying
that the carpeting was not ade­quate
justification for accepting
the higher bid.
SGA President Bob Douglas
said the cost of the banquet
went $96 over the budgeted
$700 because of the cost of
improving the apperancenof the
improving the appearance of the
Union ballroom with flowers.
Taylor referred to ". . .the
elaborate furnishings of the
Union Ballroom. . .the exquisite
cuisine prepared by the master
chefs of the War Eagle Food
Service.

'Colleagues, not adversaries'
Philpott tells SGA leaders
By JOHN MITCHELL
"I think it is important to remember that we are not adversar­ies,
but colleagues," said Pres. Harry M. Philpott to the group
of about 100 students at the student leaders meeting held at his
home Tuesday night.
'We are not opposing power structures," President Philpott
added.
Students posed questions
on recent changes in the Stu­dent
Activities Fee, the pro­posed
campus radio station and
changes in women's rules at the
meeting.
Answering a question con­cerning
the Student Activities
Fee, President Philpott said that
the areas recently removed were
budgeted to receive the same a-mount
of funds as last year. The
four activities placed in the
General Fund are band, drama,
debate and music.
Despite heavy questioning,
President Philpott refused to
make /a commitment as to the
proposed campus radio station.
"I don't want to commit myself
to approval of the radio station
until the full proposal is rendered
by the study committee," he
said.
"I can't approve a radio sta­tion
separate and apart from the
educational and instructional
program," he added.
The issue of mandatory wom­en's
meal tickets was raised.
President Philpott said that ac­cording
to study made on the sub­ject,
a change to cafeteria ser­vice,
as opposed to the present
dining hall system, would result
in an immediate 30 per cent in­crease
in cost to the student.
Abolishing women's curfews,
he said, would be a major change
in policy and would require ex­tensive
study. The study would
include a poll of parental and

'Disappointed, hopeful'
Reactions to fee cut vary
TEACHER EVALUATION BOOKLETS GO ON SALE
Only 1,000 printed to aid course selection
Reactions of student activ­ity
directors to Pres. Harry
M. Philpott's recommendation
of a cut in student activity
fees range from "disappoint­ed"
to "hopeful."
In a memorandum issued
last week, President Philpott
announced that he will recom­mend
to the Board of Trustees
that the amount of each student
fee to be allocated for student
activities be reduced from the
present $6.25 to $5.50 per quar­ter.
President Philpott said that
although the amount of each stu­dent
fee to be allocated for stu­dent
activities will be reduced,
each activity will actually be a-ble
to receive more money, since
four projects were removed from
activities fee funding to the Uni
versity General Fund. The four
projects are band, theatre, musi­cal
organizations and debate. He
also predicts a 2.8 per cent in­crease
in student enrollment next
year, which will give an es­timated
$16,800 increase in stu­dent
activity funds.
Former Student Government
Association Pres. David Hill
said President Philpott's move
indicates a lack of willingness
to communicate. "He didn't call
to talk or explain," said Hill.
Hill said President Philpott's
memorandum is vague.'Tdlike to
see some figures." He added,
"Maybe the University is hard
up for money, but we need to
know."
When asked if the fee cut is
open for change next year, Hill
said he didn't think it would be.
He said the adjustment was made
this year as a result of the
change from a Board of Alloca­tions
to Student Senate recom­mendations
to President Phil­pott
on allocation of fees.
He added that although he
doesn't believe there will be any
great problems in the next two
years, "three to five years from
now, we will be in serious finan­cial
difficulties."
"I don't think student activ­ities
have a high priority in
President Philpott's mind," Hill
said. "We could have used high
pressure with student opinion to
get a raise in the activity fees,
but we didn't."
SGA Pres. Bob Douglas said,
"We don't question the need for
money in the educational fund,
but we are concerned that Presi­dent
Philpott didn't call us in to
discuss the changes after telling
us last quarter that we would re­ceive
an increase, or at least
the amount would stay the
same."
"At the allocations sessions
we requested $7.35 per student,"
Douglas continued. "At that
time, Vice President of Academ­ic
and Administrative Affairs
Wilford Bailey made the first
hint that we might not even get
$6.25."
Former SGA Treasurer Bob Wil­son
Sai(3, "I am disappointed.
We asked for the money to a-chieve
excellence, and had hoped
the amount would at least stay
the same."

Enrollment up
over last spring
Enrollment this spring quarter has increased 1.28
per eent over the same period last year, according to
Dr. Wilbur A. Tincher, director of educational ser­vices.
Total enrollment on the main campus at Auburn this
quarter is 12,912. Auburn C f c e w f l C / f l $ 0 f
fo open Hay I;

University at Montgomery
has enrolled 594 students
for credit and 81 for non-credit,
for a total of 675,
bringing the overall total
to 13,587. The overall in­crease
over last year is
2.5 per cent, according to
Dr. Tincher.
Further breakdown of the
figures show undergraduate
enrollment on the main cam­pus
at 11,471, slightly down
from last year's total of
11,498. Graduate enrollment
is 1,441, up from last year's
total of 1,250.
Dr. Tincher said part
of the increased graduate
enrollment may be account­ed
for in the number of
field laboratory students,
totaling 398 this spring as
compared to 178 last spring.
The field laboratory pro­gram
may also account for
the increased number of
women students enrolled
by the main campus this
spring, Dr. Tincher said.
The total number of women
at Auburn this spring is
4,497 as compared with
4,017 last spring. There
was a slight decline in the
number of men students re­gistered,
from 8,731 to 8,505.

Recent rains have pre­vented
the opening of the
swimming area of Chew-acla
scheduled for May 1.
according to Jim Murphy,
park manager.
Murphy stated that 100
yards of sand have to be
moved before opening. The
heavy rains have prevented
any progress.
The regulation prohibiting
alcoholic beverages at
Chewacla will be strictly
enforced this year by the
park police, declared Mur­phy.
Visitors will be ar­rested
for breaking this reg­ulation.
Fees charged by the park
are 50 cents for adults and
25 cents for children to
swim. Boats are one dollar
per hour, and, for fishing, a
50 cent permit must be pur­chased
each day.
The park is open year
round except for the water
areas, which are open from
May til Labor Day. The
hours the park is open are
from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily.
SGA PRESIDENT-ELECT BOB DOUGLAS
New SGA officers
to set priorities
By SCOTT GREENHILL
The rest of this quarter and much of next will be a
sorting out period for the Student Government Associa­tion,
said Bob Douglas, SGA president-elect.
"We're starting to establish priorities right now,"
said Douglas. One of those oneered the radio station i-is
the student radio sta­tion.
"President Philpott
has appointed a committee
to more or less reinvestigate
the radio station proposal.
As yet there is nothing we
can do until that report
comes in after President
Philpott's and the Board of
Trustee's approval in June
we can take definite action,
but until then we'll have to
wait," said Douglas.
Chris Youtz, SGA treas­urer-
elect and SGA presiden­tial
task force head who pi-dea,
submitted a 20-page re­port
outlining a detailed
plan for the station and op­erating
costs.
Student-administrator re­lations
will be an area of
concern and priority said
Douglas. "Students are ra­tional,
responsible indivi­duals
capable of playing a
vital and necessary role in
effective University admin­istration,"
he said. He
stressed that he would work
to achieve an effective stu­dent
voice in matters per­taining

liliiss Auburn enjoyed trials of campaign
You walk into the Un­ion
Building^lir^y.our way
to an appointment. You
see a group of beautiful
girls, beautifully groomed,
sitting in Bradley Lounge.
Tnere you are-your hair's
frizzy and you're not
not wearing hose.
It's raining. You've
had a hard day and you're
tired and grouchy.
Then someone walks up
to you and says, "You're
next, Jeannie."
Horrified, you realize the
beautiful girls are candi­dates
for Miss Auburn wait­ing
to be interviewed. You're
Jeannie Cobble, a candidate
for Miss Auburn too, but
you thought the first inter­view
was NEXT Monday.
Electric hair curlers and
a little determination kept
Jeannie Cobble in the race.
She rushed back to her dorm,
rolled her hair, changed
clothes and rushed back.
••.••'irhe judges -asked me
all Ifiese questldns I didn't
feel like answering," said
Jeannie, "like 'What is the
the role of the student out­side
the classroom?' and
'What do you think about
AWS?' "
She answered intelligently
enough and looked good
enough, thanks to the elec­tric
curlers, to make the top
20. After the next round of
interviews, she was one of
the five girls chosen to run
for Miss Auburn.
Then the campaign started.
Jeannie lost seven pounds,
but she met lots and lots of .
students.
At 11:30 every day, she
went to a boarding house or
dining hall to meet people
during their lunch hour. At
12:15, she met more people
at a different eating place.
After lunch, she visited
the different drill units and
in„the afternoon, she vis­ited
-dorms, going from door
to door.
It was back to the boarding
houses at suppertime, fol­lowed
by a visit to some or­ganization
on campus. After
the meeting, or meetings,
until 11:20, she went from
door to door in the off-cam­pus
housing units with a
group of her Alpha Delta Pi
sorority sisters.
"The success of your
campaign depends on your
frame of mind," said Jean­nie.
"I told myself I was
going to enjoy it. If you don't
enjoy it, you have wasted
two weeks.
"I met so many different
people. Auburn students are
very unsterotyped," she
said.
Jeannie, a 20-year-old
math education major from
Port Payne, comes from an
Auburn-oriented family. Both
her father and older sister
attended Auburn.
, » " I started .coming to Au-
'"burn football games when I
* in the seventh grade," she
said.
Jeannie plans to live in
an apartment during her sen­ior
year as the reigning Miss
Auburn.
"People do get tired of
living in dorms," she said.
"I'm going to try living in an
apartment this summer. I
don't know how to cook and
I think it will be good ex­perience
for me, just like
having my own house."
The next cake race win­ner
will get a kiss from a
real girl next door, accord­ing
to one of Jeannie's
childhood friends.
"Jeannie's independent,
with ideas definitely her
own," said the friend.
"She's always been friendly
to everybody, even the peo­ple
nobody else liked."

State needs
graduate
planners
Alabama's need for grad­uate
planners is being
filled in part by the Cen­ter
for Urban and Regional
Planning, which helps
turn out more planners
through the master's de­gree
program in the School
of Architecture and Fine
Arts, according to Samuel
P. Snow, director of the
Center.
At the third annual Mu­nicipal
Codes Seminar last
Thursday, Snow told town
and city officials that be­cause
of the shortage of
graduate planners in Ala­bama,
the state will have to
return over 8750,000 in un­used
U.S. funds on June
30.
Snow also told the offici­als
that the Center exists to
help them meet their needs
in city planning.
The Center is going to
begin a series of short cour­ses
of planning directors and
their representatives to dis­cuss
methods of in-service
training, said Snow. A con­tinuation
of upgrading in city
planning will be scheduled in
the courses.
Druing Thursday's ses­sions,
the seminar partici­pants
observed the effects
of fire tests on building ma­terials,
saw pictures of what
Hurricane Camille did to
buildings and discussed mod­ular
housing, rigid steel
frames and the problem of
lack of housing.

Rules workshop-time of decision
When the AWS Rules workshop be­gins
next Monday, it is probable that
the coeds will be faced with requests
for even greater liberalization of coed
regulations. We cannot predict how
strong these questions will be sines
the University has already granted no
curfews for senior women. We do
know that there are many coeds who
are not satisfied with no curfews
for seniors only.
According to The Plainsman coed
survey last quarter, SI per cent of the
coeds answering the survey wanted to
eliminate curfews for all but freshman
coeds. However, it is the responsi­bility
of these coeds to voice their
opinion at the Rules workshop if they
hope to get any changes made.
A vast majority of the women pol­led,
94 per cent, said that coeds under
21. should be allowed to live in apart­ments.
Although seniors under 21
will be allowed to move off-campus,
this does not account for all thecoeds
who would like to live in an apart­ment.
The AWS will have to cope
with requests for a change in this a-rea
also.
There have been a number of criti­cisms
from the administration and AWS
officers that The Plainsman coedsur-vey
was not accurate because they
said some of the questions were lead­ing
and it was not distributed to all
the coeds. The survey was conducted
according to accepted statistical
methods and the most important ques­tions,
"Should coeds be subject to a
curfew" and "Why or why not,"are ob­jective
in our opinion. The survey is
also the only attempt we know of to
determine coed opinion on such a
large scale.
AWS President Lucy McCord has
said that the emphasis of the Rules
workshop will be on services tocoeds
rather than changes in rules. If a
majority of the coeds, or their rep­resentatives,
do not want any changes
in the University's coed regulations
or they are unwilling to work for
change, then the AWS will be jus­tified
in their plan. However, if the
majority of the coeds strongly voice
their desire to change the rules, AWS
must accept its obligation to present
any recommendations to the admini­stration.
AWS can do no less if it is
to remain an effective organization on
campus.
Teacher evaluation aids students
The Teacher-Course Evaluation
Committee has managed to distribute
its evaluation book during registra­tion
in spite of problems such as a
poor response initially from students,
trouble with the computers and a lack
of funds. They should be commended
for an outstanding job under the cir­cumstances.
There has been some criticism of
the book because many of the courses
had to be evaluated from only a few
responses. Evaluation editor Sharon
Williams admits that there are prob­lems,
but we believe that the lack of
responses are due to the students
themselves. Forms were distributed
in every copy of one issue of The
Plainsman last quarter. They were al­so
distributed to dorms and fraterni­ty
houses.
Do not ignore the book because of
the shortage of responses. It con­tains
comments from the instructors
about the courses they teach. This
alone can help in deciding which
teacher to register for next fall.
Students tired of being 'seen, not heard'
SGA President Bob Douglas minced
no words Friday night in his address
at the SGA banquet.
He tore into pieces the banquet
program, which contained the now
familiar self-contradictory comment
by Trustee John Pace, "I believe
in being open minded, but I don't
agree with giving students too much
voice in the administration."
"This is what we wish to change,"
said Douglas.
We wish administrators could feel
the frustration students feel when
they are faced with such logic as
is contained in the Pace quote.
We've has several reminders lately
that administrators do not consider
students capable or mature or intel­ligent
enough to make responsible
decisions. Among them are the cut
in the student activities fee percent­age,
administrative delays in the
campus radio station, and the dis­pute
over a proper atmosphere for
the SGA banquet.
We hope that Douglas will see his<
symbolicdestruction of the administra­tion's
parental attitude materialize
before his term ends.
Students at Auburn are tired of
being "seen and not heard."

Legislative race needs close study by voters
Because of the strong
gubernatorial race being run
by Gov. Albert Brewer and
George Wallace, an equally
important race-the state
legislative contest-has re­ceived
little attention.
This is unfortunate since
the men who will fill the 141
legislative seats next year
will have a great deal of
power. The bills they pass
of defeat will influence every
Alabamian.
This places a heavy re­sponsibility
on the voters
to elect the men best quali­fied
to properly serve the
state and its citizens.
Most of the legislators
who served for the last four
years are running again. The
voters should give these men
special attention because of
their less-than-outstanding
record last summer.
These men seeking re­election
took part in a le­gislative
session which did
little good overall and did
much to lessen the esteem
of the Legislature. The ses­sion
was marked by a lack
of desire to cope with chal­lenging
legislation and the
inability to enact several
important bills.
The Legislature also found
itself trapped in a contro­versy
concerning bribery
charges against two of its
members. The incident led
to a call for legislation to
set ethical standards, but
the only thing done was to
appoint a committee to study
the problem.
The legislature was hand­icapped
by a tendency to
meet for three hours or less
on many days. As a result,
a much-needed consumer
credit bill was not passed.
By Brute Gilliland
Filibusters and delaying
tactics by House and Senate
leaders aided in preventing
such legislation as an ac­ceptable
annual sessions
bill,, property tax equaliza­tion
which would have pro­duced
more education funds
on the local level and an
air pollution control act
which would have been more
effective than the one passed.
The lack of any construct­ive
work on many days should
be considered in the light
of a $3,600 a year increase
in their expense allowances
they voted themselves in
1967. The allowance increase
was used rather than a sa­lary
hike because the voters
would have to approve the
salary change. The addi-
Evaluate education
tional money was passed
over a veto of the late Gov.
Lurleen Wallace.
Special interest has a
strong influence on the
Legislature. Pressure from
industry resulted in a com­promise
air pollution bill
which allows many compa­nies
to escape penalties for
up to seven years. A four
per cent utility tax which
3rewer proposed be placed
on the utilities was passed
on to the consumer by the
Legislature.
The voters should demand
that (he men who represent
them for the next four years
take positive action to im­prove
the Legislature. One
such step would be to allow
the counties and cities
more "home rule" and re­move
local legislation from
the state Capitol.
i Another improvement would
be the election of the Speaker
of the House by a roll-call
vote rathei than1 a voice vote.
This might prevent another
Rankin Fite who did much
to disrupt the work of the
House by adjourning after
meeting only briefly. Elec­tronic
voting, used in other
state legislatures, would
speed up the slow operations.
Above all, the voters must
elect the best qualified men
even if it means voting out
some incumbents. This state
cannot afford another legis­lative
session like last year.

Attitude change
Banquet not place
By John
Certainly some members
of Auburn's administration
deserve criticism for their
treatment of student leaders
in recent weeks, but the SGA
Installation Banquet last
week was neither the time
nor the place for such cri­ticism.
"President Philpott, we're
glad you could take time out
from your busy travel sched­ule
to be with us here in
Auburn tonight," said Mas­ter
of Ceremonies Chuck
Taylor.
"Here we are amidst the
glamour and splendor of the
Union Ballroom," he con­tinued,
"What place could
be more fitting for such an
occasion?"
With a speech of this
caliber being made, per­haps
the nursery school would
have provided a more suit­able
atmosphere.
The Student Senate now
has control of the Student
Activities Fee, but four
activities were switched to
the general fund last week
and the amount of the fee
was cut without consulta­tion
with students.
Chris Youtz and his task
force have worked long and
hard to establish a campus
radio station, only to have
President Philpott delay
their plans by appointing
a new committee to study
the feasibility of their plan.
Finally, to top these two
blows, the Officer's Instal­lation
Banquet was moved
from the Holiday Inn to the
Union Ballroom by President
Philpott to save $36.
Student leaders feel de­feated.

Politicians exploit medical school promises
The following is one of a series
of "Campus Perspective" articles
written by Aubum administrators,
faculty imembers, and student lead­ers.
This week's guest columnist
is John Drummond, a 1969 graduate
who is now president of the fresh­man
clas s at the University of Ala­bama
School of Medicine in Bir­mingham.
By JOHN DRUMMOND
Several years ago, an out-of-state
consulting firm was engaged by our
state government to evaluate the
health care needs of this state and
make recommendations. The results
of this study, the Booz, Allen, and
Hamilton Report suggested the fol­lowing
sequence of steps for over­coming
our state's doctor shortage:
(1) Increase the size of the pre­sent
medical school.
(2) Establish a basic science med­ical
school (first two years) in Tus­caloosa
with the University of Ala­bama
in Tuscaloosa as the parent
institution. At the same time, with
the cooperation and professional ad­vice
of the University of Alabama
School of Medicine in Birmingham,
establish a program in Mobile for
completing the last two years of
medical school.
(3) When the University of South
Alabama is able to develop a strong
graduate program in science, add the
first two years of medical school at
Mobile.
(4) Eventually expand the Tusca­loosa
facility to a four year school
also.
(5) Build a medical school in
Huntsville sometime in the future
when the state will financially be
able to do so.
With regard to the Booz, Allen,
and Hamilton Report, it is important
to remember that these events are
supposed to take place in sequence
over a long period of time. However,
Governor Albert Brewer and former
Governor George Wallace have both
made campaign promises which ig­nore
the sequence of events in the
Booz, Allen, and Hamilton report and
their planned time of occurrence.
Governor Brewer has flatly told
the people of Mobile that they will
have a four year medical school in
their city. In fact, state money has
already been appropriated to plan
such a school.
Mr. Wallace, in the televised
speech in Mobile which kicked off
his campaign, reported that be­cause
excess state funds had been
invested during his wife's term in of­fice,
eight million dollars had been
earned for Alabama. Wallace then
promised that if elected he would
build medical schools in Mobile,Tus­caloosa,
and Huntsville with this
eight million dollars with no increase
in taxes. In later campaign speeches,
Wallace has claimed he would have
500 medical students receiving
M.D.'s every year in Alabama before
he left office. Please consider these
two claims in light of the following
facts.
The Association of American
Medical Colleges estimates that a
new medical school costs around
$30 to $60 million just to build.
Simple addition shows that these
three medical schools would cost
many tens of millions of dollars more
than the eight million Wallace spoke
of. Even if this state could afford to
build these new medical schools, it
would only be the beginning; for
every new doctor, eight professionals
in allied health fields will be need­ed.
As far as the number of doctors
Alabama can graduate per year, it is
interesting to note that only 258 resi­dents
of Alabama even applied to our
medical school class. So it is ap­parent
that Mr. Wallace, in his ea­gerness
to make appealing campaign
promises, has ignored the fact that
state finances and availability of
qualified applicants to medical
school will severely limit our state's
ability to increase its number of

Thursday, April 30, 1970 5- THE AUBURN PUINSVUN
Alumnus asks help for American POW's
Ed. note: The following
is from an Auburn alumnus
whose brother is a POW
in North Vietnam. Students
wishing to request humane
treatment for the POW's
can sign cards in the APhlO
book exchange. The cards
willbesentto I CARE, INC.,

to bring relief to prisoners
in North Vietnam.
Editor, The Plainsman:
With tears in their eyes-a
prayer in their hearts -
they hope-they pray-they
wait. . .The Forgotten Ame­ricans
of the Vietnam War.
On the pretext that U.S.
captives are not prisoners
of war but "criminals,"
North Vietnam will not al­low
neutral inspections of
its prisons. Yet such in­spections
are required un­der
the Geneva Conven­tions,
signed by North Viet­nam
and 119 other govern­ments.
It has also refused to
identify prisoners it holds,
release the sick and wound­ed;
allow proper flow of
letters and packages, or
protect U.S. prisoners from
public abuse.
News has arrived that
we, fellow Auburnites, can
be of the most help in per­suading
North Vietnam to
accord humane treatment
to American prisoners. Let­ters
can be directed to the
Ambassadors of the listed
countries in Washington,
D.C. Mr. Perot will dupli­cate
your letter and pay to
mail it to world leaders
overseas.
On October 18, 1965, an
Air Force pilot, Capt. Thom­as
Edward Collins, III, be­came
a POW. He left be­hind
a mother, father, two
brothers, a sister, and a
wife with two small boys-one
of which he has never
seen. His first letter since
1965 was received by his
family this past Christmas,
1969. His wife, Donnie Col­lins,
and other wives are
working tirelessly with Mr.
RQSS Perot and others to
encourage the free American
people to give only a few
minutes of their time to
write letters to these leaders
asking that Capt. Thomas
Edward Collins, III, and
1400 other American pri­soners
of war receive medi­cal
care, and be treated
humanely.
The answer does not lie
in the stars or time or apa­thy,
for time is only a small
element-and without our
voices-pleading for the
sake of humanity-our cause
has died an unnatural death.
We all have voices and we
all can make our request
in only a few words. Only
our messages can open the
doors or these men's hearts.
These "Forgotten Ameri­cans"
are our men-they
need us as we need them.
As students of Auburn,
let us follow through with
our beliefs. Let us all write
and free our men. We can
let them know that we Au­burn
students and alumni
want the respect and con­fidence
of our fellow men
and that if letters are the
answer, then Auburn will
step forward and do its
part; for as written in the
Auburn Creed:
"I BELIEVE in the
human touch, which cul­tivates
sympathy with
my fellow men and mu­tual
helpfulness and
brings happiness for
all.
I BELIEVE in my
country, because it is a
land of freedom and be*
cause it is my own home,
and that I can best serve
that country by 'doing
justly, loving mercy,
and walking humbly with
myGod'."

Fraternities need
new spirit
Editor, The Plainsman:
In reference to the letter
of Bill Nixon, Tau Kappa
Epsilon (Friday, April 17,
1970):
If the Greeks are causing
the death of the fraternity
system, it is not their lack
of participation in Homecom­ing
floats or the Step-Sing
which is effectuating it.
These activities were ger­mane
to a past generation,
but have lost their relevancy
to modern collegiate life.
While they may stillbe worth­while,
less emphasis should
be placed upon activities
which overtly flaunt a false
impression of fraternal spirit
and more emphasis should be
placed upon the individual.
The individual, by uniting
in a bond of brotherhood with
other individuals, creates
within himself and others a
true fraternal spirit. The
true strength of a fraternity
lies in the fusion of this
with the solemnity of the
founding beliefs within its
ritual. If the fraternity sys­tem
is dying, it is from the
neglect of this basic aspect
and not from non-participa­tion
in incidental events.

Evans criticized
for war article
Editor, The Plainsman:
This is a reply to Miss
Martha Evans on her article
about fed-up veterans.
Before anyone from the
right or the left gets up­tight,
I would like him to
know that this letter is not
moralizing on the war. This
letter is to let everyone know
of the talents of our writers
and of the editor's "know­ledge"
of his responsibili­ties.
How can a self-appointed
spokesman for this genera­tion
quote selected phrases
from a minority (two is a mi­nority),
tie the sentences to­gether
as she sees fit, and
neaaune it with the sugges­tion
that it is everyone's
(veterans, that is) opinion.
Miss Evans should leave
biased comment to the pros
who can slant their writing
with much more style. At
least they could lead the
reader a little better by us­ing
such phrases as; "a
random sampling of vete­rans,"
"spokesman for the
fed-up veterans," or just
by simply lying (who is go­ing
to report them).
It looks as though the on­ly
credibility gap that exists
in this country is between
the press and the people. It
seems as though the journal­ists
in this country seem to
be falling all over them­selves
to see who can write
the biggest piece of sensa­tionalism,
and from the looks
of things we are still going
to be graduating them for
some time. It must give an
editor a great sense of pow­er
to know that his publica­tion
could be regarded as one
of our most useless campus
activities, but there is noth­ing
anyone can do about it.
i spoke to the two men
who were interviewed, and
here are their reactions;
Scottie Spates (4 VED) was
not given the right of ap­proving
the so-called in­terview.
Miss Evans will be
pleased to know tnat she
made both Scottie and his
Wife ill and will cause them
undue embarrassment and
shame. The ailedged inter­view
was actually of some
guys sitting around, shooting
the breeze with Miss Evans
taking notes whenever the
conversation coincided with
her viewpoint.
hell! Miss Evans, every­one
hates to see people die.
With this same sort of pro­cess
of selecting statements
to be quoted, you could if
you wished, tie together all
of Coach Jordan's laments
about the football team dur­ing
a particular season and
make it seem as though that
team couldn't beat Auburn
High School. I believe that
is known as "yellow journ­alism".
Maybe the editor
will give a definition of it.
Mr. Spates does, not deny
certain phrases from his "in­terview,"
but he totally re­futes
the image that has been
given him.
JohnRochelle (2 GPO) ac­knowledges
the basic con­tent
of his interview, but
he notes some errors. For
example, he was in Viet­nam
only ten months, not
nineteen months. I respect
Mr. Roc he lie's opinions and
his right to voice them. How­ever,
in the future, he would
like all of his statements
known and not just selected
phrases. (Incidentally Mr.
Rochelle read this letter and
agrees with my comments.)
I suppose that after read­ing
this letter, your staff
will get back to their coffee,
feel as if no' big thing has
happened, and maybe even
manage a joke or two about
this obvious Agnew right
winger that dared to ques­tion
"their" integrity. I
asked Miss Evans a couple
of "polite" questions and
didn't even take up much of
her time (about one minute)-
She was quoted that night
as saying, "Some guy gave
me trouble today, but the
Plainsman staff will back
me up." If I were a member
of that staff J wouldn't stand
any closer than one-hundred
yards.
I don't know what else
was said, but it could be
libelous if printed. There
are many people like Martha
Evans in the world, but we
"choose" our editors. Now,
I really feel disappointed
that the new editor is run­ning
unopposed. I don't
think it takes much more than
a good sense of fair play
and honesty to do a better
job than has been done re­cently.
.1 really feel sorry
for the schools that have
newspapers that haven't won
a Pacemaker Award. Maybe
some of our writers can
spread their talent around
and go to other schools.
If you are wondering about
my political affiliations and
my service record, here it
is. I vote and speak for what
I believe is right, regard­less
of party..! served in the
Marines (trained killers, I
believe is the current
phrase). I have no combat
duty, but that is not neces­sary
since we are talking
about jounralism, not war.
Ray Marlow, 3ME
Ed. note: Mr. Marlow's
statement that "there are
many people in the world
like Martha Evans" is in
poor taste in The Plains­man's
opinion, but is print­ed
in full because Mr. Mar-low
says he has written a
factual letter. He has pre­sented
no supporting eci-dence
that Miss Evans

Miss Evans denies
making the statements at­tributed
to her by Mr. Mar-low.
Prof offers
population plan
Editor, The Plainsman:
Let me express enthus­iastic
endorsement of the re­cent
article in The Plains­man
in which it is pointed
out that, in order to halt the
present perilous growth of
populations, such techniques
as contraception and infant
abortion must come to be un­iversally
approved and prac­ticed.
One might wish thatcon-traception
alone would be an
adequate check, but, unfor­tunately,
so many are impul­sive,
or slip-shod, or both.
Clearly, then, this leaves the
necessity for legal and easy
abortions, not to mention the
other possible remedies, like
euthanasia and suicide, also
cited in the article.
My particular purpose in
writing my own letter, how­ever,
is to introduce into the
dialogue a correlative idea
which I- believe to be preg­nant
with further benefits.
I do so modestly, because
the idea is not my own. As
far as I know, this idea was
first conceived by the Irish
author Jonathan Swift in the
18th Century. His "A Mod­est
Proposal" advances, as
a cure for Irish poverty and
over-population, the sugges­tion
that infants, after a per­iod
of one year, be butchered
and marketed as edible com­modities.
Among the benefits which
Mr. Swift enumerates, in ad­dition
to the effect of con­trolling
population, are such
as the clear financial gain
to parents caught in the po­verty
cycle-always the
heaviest breeders-a benefit
as desirable in our time as
in his.
Of course, Mr. Swift was
not serious. (There is a de­plorable
lack of seriousness
in much of this man's writ­ing.)
In fact it was his i-ronic
intention, by advancing
a proposal which he con­sidered
impossibly inhu­mane,
to excoriate the inhu­manity
of Ireland's rulers.
But Mr. Swift 'wrought bet­ter
than he knew'. In the
grip of many prejudices of
his day—more than 200
years ago!—he imagined that
there was something special
about the human infant, born
or unborn, that there was an
entity called 'the immortal
soul', and all that. Thus he
was entirely inhibited from
recognizing the very real hu­manity
of his own propsoal.
We in the Age of Science,
however, when virtually all
prejudices have been, or are
in the process of being ex­ploded,
when all the reli­gious
cobwebbery has been
swept away, are not so blind­ed.
We now clearly recog­nize
that a foetus is merely
a foetus, an infant merely an
infant, and both merely so
much unconscious or half-conscious
substance in var­ious
stages of the process
of development toward that
species of mammal which we
have denominated 'Man'.Why,
then, should not Mr. Swift's
proposal—with the extension
to include foetuses, which I
propose—be taken seriously
by us?
It is true that some, still
under the influence of obso­lete
sentiments, may, even
now, balk at the idea of de­stroying
infants already born.
But since it is almost uni­versally
agreed that the
slaughter of those unborn is
entirely inoffensive, what
valid reason can there be for
needlessly wasting so many
edible carcasses?
As to the supposition that
such carcasses are less fit
for human consumption than
those of many another mam­mal—
a belief flatly contra­dicted
by persons living to­day
in parts of Africa and
New Guinea—what is this
but another unfounded pre­judice?
Allow me, then, to
submit for consideration in
the growing dialogue this
proposal, which promisesjo
disadvantaged people ready
financial benefits, and to
others, at the least, some
pleasure of a gustatory kind.

Editor blasted
for'patriotism'
Editor, The Plainsman:
Mr. Gilliland, your editor­ial
in the April 17th issue
of the Plainsman, "Concept
of Patriotism Needs Rede­fining,"
was about a very
controversial subject. Pa­triotism
has a different
meaning for every citizen,
but your attempt to venerate
Abbie Hoffman and other
Americans who desecrate the
American flag is unjusti­fiable.
Hoffman appeared on a
night-time talk show wear­ing
a shirt made from an
American flag. You point
out that Uncle Sam wears a
suit resembling an American
flag and while Uncle Sam
is venerated, Hoffman is ac­cused
of breaking a law.
You call this an "apparent
discrepancy". Mr. Gilliland,
this is not a discrepancy.
Uncle Sam portrays a pa­triotic
American who doesn't
take to the streets to riot,
loot and burn under the
false pretense of protesting
an unjust law. Hoffman is a
leader of a minority that
seeks to destroy America.
You ask, "Are these peo­ple
unpatriotic because
breaking the law is the only
way they can get a better
law?" Emphatically, yes.
People who riot aren't pro­testing
a bad law; they mere­ly
wish to be released from
the bonds of a law that de­nies
them freedom to do as
they please without regards
toothers.
You condemn blind pa­triotism
but you sympathize
with Abbie Hoffman. Mr.
Gilliland, perhaps your per­sonal
definition of patriotism
needs redefining.

appalled
at rally hecklers
Editor, The Plainsman: (
We were appalled at the!
behavior of a few people at
the Wallace rally Tuesday
afternoon, and we found this1
behavior very displeasing to:
us as Auburn students. a
We realize that these per-;
sons might not agree witlv;
George Wallace's political
ideologies, but they at least
should have the respect1
within themselves to allow
him to speak without being
so rude as to use chants and'
heckling to deliberately try
to distract the man from his'^
message. If these people
have something intelligent
(?) to shout to the world, whyv
don't they just wait theirr-turn
to useToomer's Corner*
and see what it feels like.,
to be heckled themselves.
We realize that Governor
Wallace has shortcomings
just like any other person,
but at least we don't go a-round
shouting our personal
objections at everyone that
says something that we don't
like. We respect Mr. Wallace
because he has the nerve to)
do what he says and "notj
apologize for being from,
Alabama."
We're from Alabama andj
proud of it.

Tigers get back on winning track,
pirn at spoiling Florida's chances
I Auburn will get a chance
I m play the role of spoiler
Jwhen Florida comes to
I § Plainsman Park for single
»* games Friday and Satur­day.
The Gators are tied
with Tennessee for the lead
in the SEC's eastern divis­ion.
Florida beat Auburn 17-
4 in Gainesville with the
other scheduled game being
rained out.
The Tigers will enter the
aeries with a three-game win­ning
streak, two from Ken­tucky
and one from Mercer.
The victories pushed Au­burn
above the .500 mark
overall and in SEC play.
They are 12-11 overall and
6-5 in the league.
Alabama will be here Tues­day
for a single game that
will not count in conference
standings.
Rained out Friday, the
Tigers took a doubleheader
from Kentucky the next day
as the Wildcats were held
to only eight hits in the two
games.
Earl Nance pitched and
hit his team to a 1-0 win in
the opener. While fanning six
and throwing a two-hitter,
he singled in Gene Collins
in the fifth inning for the
only run of the game.Collins
had singled and moved up on
a hit by Wayne Hall before
Nance's blow.
Rick Eisenacher bailed
Beal Lazenby out of a jam
in the fourth inning of the
nightcap and held Kentucky
hitless the rest of the way
as Auburn won 4-2.
Auburn had taken a three-run
lead in the first inning.
Andy Merchant tripled in
Ken Dempsey and Russ Wal­ker
and later scored as Joe
Haefner grounded out.
Kentucky had scored
twice in the fourth and had
runners on first and third
with one out when Eisena­cher
replaced Lazenby. He
fanned the first man and got
the next to ground out.
Gene Collins' grand slam
highlighted a five-run first
inning as Auburn eased by
Mercer here Tuesday 9-1.
Eisenacher pitched five shut­out
innings to even his rec­ord
at 5-5. Larry Kain
pitched the final four in­nings.
Mercer's starting pitcher
had walked the first five
men before Collins* cleaned
the bases.
Auburn added four more in
the second with Merchant's
two-run triple, his fourth of
the season, being the key
hit.

Tennis program
in need of help
The next meeting of the Athletic Committee will pro­bably
decide the fate of the Auburn tennis program.
The program in recent years has not been up to par
with that of most other schools in the SEC. Last year,
for instance, the netters could finish no better than ninth
in the conference meet. This year their record is 5-6, but
they haven't beaten an SEC opponent. Auburn owns vic­tories
over Samford, Mercer, Birmingham Southern and!
has beaten Huntingdon twice, but has lost to Alabama,
Georgia, South Alabama, Vanderbilt, Kentucky and Ole
Miss.
Auburn has built a winning tradition in all sports JX-cept
tennis under Athletic Director Jeff Beard. Under
his .leadership the Tigers have, attained a record never^
before matched in the SEC. Auburn won,all fqiu; rqajor^
sports titles, football, .basketball, baseball and track,
during a four period, from 1957-61.
During the past five years Auburn's baseball record
has been 101-57. The basketball record has been 75-53
and the wrestling team has gone 46-6-2. During the same
period the football team has gone 30-22-1, come within
one game of the conference championship twice and has
participated in three bowls.
During those five years the tennis team has been bet­ter
than .500 but the majority of their wins, like this
season, have come against lesser competition. Only one
year, 1968,did they win more than they lost againstSEC
competition.
Their record in the SEC meet tells the true story. During
the last five years they've finished (starting in 1965)
sixth, ninth, tenth, eighth ( or in a three-way tie for last)
and ninth.
"Five years ago we setup the program so that the same
amount of money would be allotted to tennis, golf and
wrestling," said Coach Beard in an interview this week.
"But it hasn't worked out the way we had hoped."
"There are two sports that we are really going to have
to help and those are tennis and swimming," he added.
This was the first year Auburh has fielded a swimming
team since the 1940s. The wrestling team next season will
get the maximum amount of scholarships allowed under
the conference rules (four).
Auburn currently has four tennis players on partial
scholarship. Goergia by comparison, has 16 on full or
partial scholarship.
Alabama recently signed the second-ranked high school
tennis player in the nation and another who is considered
one of the best in the East. Last year they signed one of
the best small college players in the nation. He will be­come
eligible next season.
It takes more than partial scholarships to get players
of that calibre.
When the Athletic Committee meets a couple of weeks
from now, let us hope that they decide to give the tennis
program the financial help it needs to become competi­tive
in the SEC.
New football look in 70?
The first week of football practice brought few surprises,
but a lot of contact.
Auburn might have a new look next season. The Tigers
will wear all white five times next year and Coach Jordan
would like to add a little more color if possible, so he's
looking at new helmets this spring.
One set is orange with two white and one blue stripe
down the middle and a blue "AU" on each side. The oth­er
is blue with two white and one orange stripe down the
middle and an orange "AU" on either side.
Fullback Wallape Clark is reportedly looking better .than
ever this spring. He is running with authority as usual, but
coaches are also impressed with his blocking. On one
play in a scrimmage last week, he blocked a defensive
end and got up and ran 10 yards down field and blocked out
a sideback.

After taking two of three
matches last week, Coach
Luther Young's short-handed

in Birmingham battling
Samford and Birmingham
Southern.
Originally playing with
only four scholarship mem­bers,
the team will now have

for the remainder of the sea­son.
Auburn downed Samford

6-3 last week.
Steve Davis, Mike, Mike
Tinkey, Jerry Maples and
Huey Long won singles
matches against Samford in
Auburn last Thursday. Davis
and Tinkey, Mike and Ma­ples,
and Larry -Sandefer
and Long won in doubles.
The loss to Alabama was
much closer than the score
indicates. Davis and Mike
each won their first set in
singles before dropping the
next two. Davis lost to Greg
Boucher in the no. 1 match
4-6, 6-3, 6-4 while Mike fell
to Les Jacobs 4-6, 7-5, 6-2.
Tinkey and Maples won
their singles matches and
then Tinkey teamed with
Davis to get Auburn's only
win in doubles.
With Mike absent against
Birmingham Southern Tues­day,
Davis, Tinkey, Maples
and Sandefer won in singles.
Davis then teamed with Tin-key
and Maples joined Long
to win their doubles matches.

Former Plainsman editor
joins athletic department
David Housel, former
editor of the Auburn
Plainsman and news edi­tor
of the Huntsville News
since September of 1969,
has recently joined the
athletic staff as adminis­trative
assistant and au­ditor
in the ticket office.
He fills the position
vacated by Francis Sanda,
who recently became busi­ness
manager of a doctor's
clinic in Auburn.
A native of Gordo, Ala.,
Housel, 23, will also work
with the publicity office. As
a senior at Auburn he worked
as a student assistant in
the publicity office and
was responsible for sel­ling
ads in the football pro­gram.
He served as a daily
newspaper sports correspon­dent
and worked his way
up from a sportswriter to
sports editor and later was
elected editor of The Plains­man
by the student body.
Under Housel's editor-ship.
The Plainsman received
AU-American recognition.
When he graduated, in Au­gust
of 1969, Housel re­ceived
the Algernon Sydney
Sullivan award for campus
leadership from President
Harry M. Philpott.
"I'm real happy to be
back in Auburn," said Hou­sel.
"I'm working with a real
fine group of people and
you couldn't find a nicer
place to live than Auburn.
"Francis did a tremen­dous
job and left some big
shoes to fill. I just hope
I can make a small con­tribution
to the athletic
program."

Team enthusiam
pleasing to Jordan
By JOE COOK
With the first of five
weeks of spring training
completed, Coach Ralph
"Snug" Jordan cites his
1970 football squad as the
most enthusiastic spring
team he has coached in
his twenty years.
"The morale is never as
high in the spring as it is in
the fall when everyone ,s an­ticipating
the games," said
Jordan, "but this group is
more enthusiastic than any
spring team I've coached at
Auburn."
The first week's work was
mostly on fundamentals and
getting the upcoming sopho­mores
accustomed to the var­sity.
However, the team be­gan
hitting in a scrimmage
Saturday, a tough workout
Tuesday and a second scrim-age
yesterday.
"We've had a little rain the
first week," said Jordan,
but the weather should be hot
from here on out."
Dave Beck, and HarryUn-ger,
two sophomores, have
turned in good performances
so far with sideback Beck
having the daily task of cov­ering
Terry Beasley.
"Beck made a couple of
real good plays covering
Beasley last Saturday," said
Jordan. "When he stepson
the field next season, he
won't face anybody any tough­er
than Terry."
Unger carried the ball nine
times for 101 yards Saturday,
including a 60-yard TD
through the middle.
"Veterans from last year
are looking tough, but we ex­pected
them to come out
ready to play ball," said
Jordan.
Tommy Tray lor led the of­fense
while Pat Sullivan was
recovering from a minor pul­led
hamstring. Traylor ran
seven times for 72 yards and
completed seven of 12 passes
for 123 yards, including a TD
pass to Beasley Saturday.
Sullivan will be back in ac­tion
this week although he
was kept out of contact work
Tuesday.
Larry Willingham and John­ny
McDonald, who missed the
first week participating in
track, were on hand as the
second week got underway
Tuesday.
Saturday "s scrimmage dealt
mainly with the running game,
and Wallace Clark, Mickey
Zofko, Tommy Lowry and
Terry Page turned in good
performances.
Tuesday's work centered
around the passing game with
the upcoming sophomores
Ralph Brock and Ted Smith
quarterbacking the squad.

Thursday, April 30, 1970 7-THE AUBURN PUINSMJW
'Regular river rat9
became world cham
By KEITH PITTS
One of the most outstanding athletes in Alabama's his­tory
daily walks the halls of Haley Center.
Mrs. Leah Rawls Atkins, wife of AU football coach
George Atkins, is a history instructor here. But just a
few years ago, she held a prominent position in the world
of sports, that of women's world water skiing champion.
At the age of thirteen, the young Birminghamian was
introduced to water skiing on the Warrior River. Tohear
Mrs. Atkins tell it, rather than introduced, she was in­ducted.
"My father stayed after me pretty hard, and didn't
allow any foolishness when I practiced. I became a reg­ular
river rat."
In 1950, at the age of fifteen, she entered her first
large-scale competition at Cypress Gardens. The results
were not promising. As a matter of fact, they were down­right
depressing. "I finished last or close to last in every
event. However, I think this only caused me to become
more determined to become a good skier."
Her record proved this to be so. Only one year later,
she was trick riding champion of the United States,
winning in Lake Placid, N.Y. August of 1952 saw her
winning the tricks competition at the Canadian-U.S. Cham­pionships.
All this pointed to bigger things to come. The next big
stop was the National Championships in Long Beach,
California. Only recently graduated from high school, the
then Leah Rawls emerged as the national champion.
With the World Championships scheduled for Toronto
the next week, Leah was selected, along with three others
by the American Water Ski Association, to represent the
United States. Then, on Lake Ontario, the determined
little Alabamian became 1953 World Champion!
This was to be the highpoint in an outstanding career
that included a second place in the '57 World Champion­ships,
and another taken away because of a mere tech­nicality.
"The World Championships occur every two years. Be­tween
my winning in '53 and the next championships in
'55, George and I got married. We were expecting a baby
when the championships came up in '55, and .my next com­petition
was in the National in '56. I didn't compete in
jumping because I had just had my baby, and didnt think
I was ready to jump."
Mrs. Atkins, however, won both the tricks and slalom
events and had more points than the overall winner. But
because of a rule requiring competing in all events, she
was^not declared the champion. However, she came back
the next year and wonthe National Championship and once
again competed in the World Championships, finishing^
behind Marina Dorea of Switzerland.
"After 1957,1 retired from competitive skiing, and turned
tb judging. I was a judge for about four years, then de­cided
to devote my time to my family and my teaching. I

still love to ski though. We have a cabin on Lake Martin
and we spend a lot of time there in the summer.
She is evidently a good skiing instructor too. "My little
daughter has just learned to ski. Both boys are already
skiing on a slalom, and my oldest boy can ski backwards
a little."
"My dad was on me to practice all the time after he saw
the potential that I had. It was a daily thing because
someone who is a weekend skiier won't become a world
champion. I had to keep at it, and always try to do better
than before."
To do this required her to never be completely satisfied
with her performance. This is portrayed when she says
"I never was that good at jumping. Itwasalwaysmy weak
point." Yet, one can look in the record books, and see
that she held the women's record for distance from 1954
to 1958.
The old saying, "The end justified the means"mayi
not always be true, but in this case, it most definitely
was. For, the results of her hard work and determination
were the highest possible, being acclaimed world cham­pion.
With the elections for the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame
upcoming, Mrs. Atkins' name will most assuredly come up,
and what better pre-requisite is there to belonging to the
Hall of Fame than being a world champion?

Illinois eager is signed
to grant with Auburn
Mike Christian, a 6-1
guard from Danville, 111.,
has become the third
player to sign a basket­ball
grant with Auburn
University.
Christian, a three-year
starter and two-time all-state
selection, was voted
by the press as the out­standing
player in eastern
Illinois.
An outstanding ball hand­ler
and free throw shooter,
he averaged 22.9 points per
game last season and hit 30
or more on nine occasions,
all in clutch games.
Over a three period year,
he hit 79.6 per cent of his
free throws and 47 per cent
from the field as an outside
shooter.
After leading his team to
a 26-3 and the region fi­nals
where he hit 38 points
in a losing cause, he re­ceived
offers from most of
the Big Ten schools and
independents in the area.
He was said to have narrow­ed
his choice down to Au­burn
and Indiana.

"The answer is many-fold,"
said Coach Rosen.
"First I would say that
Alabama has a stronger
team outdoors. This is due
to their strength in the
javelin, discus and longer
sprints (100 and 220).
"Secondly we had the
advantage of an indoor track.
They don't have one and
had to work wherever and
whenever they could, with
bad weather entering the
picture. These factors pre­vented
them from being ready
to compete. They also were
not accustomed to running
on our short, flat-surfaced
track.
"This spring we have had
a problem similar to theirs
last winter, lack of a track
of our own to practice on."
Auburn has had to prac­tice
at the local high school,
a place inadequate for
track on the college level.
"And Alabama had the
advantage of the home track
and home crowd behind
them Saturday," he added.
Auburn could only win
five of 17 events with two
of the firsts coming in events
that Alabama did not enter.
Bright spots for the Ti­gers
were Milton Bresler,
Steve Richards and Mike
Brannan.
Bresler turned in his fin­est
performance of the sea­son
in the 440 intermediate
hurdles, winning in :52.5.
Richards remained un­defeated
in dual meets with
a':14.5 timing in the 120 high
hurdles, despite running
against the wind.
Mike Brannan showed
signs of coming around with
a 21-11 % leap in the broad
jump.
Outstanding performer
of the meet was Alabama's
Steve Williams who won the
100, 220 and ran a leg on
the winning 440-relay team.
Alabama broke four meet
records. Two were also
school records. Bresler's
time in the 440 hurdles was
a meet record, breaking the
mark held by his brother
Alvin.
Auburn will be in action
Sunday in a 5-way meet in
Baton Rouge. LSU, paced
by top SEC sprinter Al Cof­fee,
will be favored. Miss.
State, Tulane and SE 'La.
will also be entered.

Five teams still perfect m
By BILL WHITE
After three weeks of in­tramural
softball play, on­ly
five teams remain un­defeated.
KA, SN, LCA,
DC and PKT have sur­vived
with perfect slates.
Kappa Alpha, the
League One leader, knocked
off previously unbeaten
AGR with an impressive
12-0 win. Jimmy Harris lim­ited
the AGRs to four hits.
Skid Logan scored four runs
and Dicky Beetle scored
three more to pace the KA
victory.
SAE knocked off TC 12-11
to knock them out of the
ranks of the unbeaten.
Powerful Sigma Nu pushed
their record to 3-0 with a
15-9 victory over SC. Jimmy
Ballard and Mike Vickers
each scored four runs as
Jimmy Poole won his third
straight pitching assign­ment.
LCA is the leader in
League Three. They scored
a 3-1 win over CP behind
the fine pitching of Terrell
Lankford. He struck out nine
and allowed only three hits.
DZ's lose
to Dorm J
by 31-0
By DEBBIE WILSON
The DZs failed to make
a go of it last Thursday
as they were shut out by
Dorm J 31-0 in a rather
boring softball game
which ended last week's
practice competition and
led into the first week of
playoffs.
Earlier last week, the
AOPs squeezed by ZTA 10-
8 and Auburn Hall and Dorm
2 romped upon the TriDelts
6-0 in the Monday afternoon
league.
In Tuesday's league ac­tion,
there was a double
default by the second teams
of XO and KD as neither
showed for the game. PM
then won by default over
PiPhi.
AGD came out ahead in
their game against Dorm G,
Six and Crockett by a score
of 12-9 in Wednesday's af­ternoon
league. Once again
the fantastic Dorm 5 through
as they edged BSU in a 12-
10 contest. The KATS were
victorious over KKG in an
easy game 23-9 game and
ADPi beat Dorm K.
Drawing for the tourna­ment
will be held April 30.

experience? Tired of the
same, dull routine, We pro­mise
nothing, but try The

League Four has two un­defeated
teams with DC and
PKT being unbeaten. DC
pulled off a tremendous vic­tory
over ATO by a score of
7-6. Jeff Quillon pitched the
entire game for DC. The vic­tory
came for DC by virtue of
a perfect throw to the catcher
preventing an ATO attempt­ing
to steal home.
PKT pitcher Ronnie Dye
limited BTP to three hits
and gave no runs in blank­ing
the Betas by a score of
2-0. This pushed the Phi
Taus to 3-0 and a tie with
DC for the league lead.
The Mouls have estab­lished
quite a reputation in
their first season of softball
play and appear to be the
team to beat in the church
and independent league.
The devastating Mouls
bombed the Bombers 19-1 to
remain undefeated.

Auburn has taken the
initial steps in getting
back to the top in south­eastern
wrestling by sign­ing
two outstanding pro­spects
to scholarships.
Athletic Director Jeff
Beard recently announced
the signing of Joe Russo of
West Islip, N.J., and George
Callaway of Prattville.
Russo won two straight
state championships while
winning 45 straight matches
over a two-year period in
the 134 and 142 pound weight
classes.
Callaway was undefeated
his last three years, winning
three straight state titles.
Despite weighing only 194
his senior year, he won the
state heavyweight title,
leading Prattville to the AAA
title.
Callaway was also a foot­ball
star at Prattville and
had several scholarship of­fers.

signed by the Board of Trustees,
according to Youtz.
The financing of the station
is another question that still
must be decided. "Financing
will have to come from educa­tional
money," said President
Philpott.
Youtz had proposed that the
budget be taken from the student
activities fees. A series of dif­ferent
budgets from a $4,860
minimum to a maximum of
$14,724 had been prepared for
Youtz' station proposal. The
major difference in the four
budgets was the amounts al­located
for salaries.
The proposal prepared by
Youtz has received letters of
support from Dr. Davis; John
E. Matthews, editor of Univer­sity
Radio and Television Ser­vices,
and Edward Wegener, Di­rector
of ETV.
Banquet
Paul Anderson, known as
the "World's Strongest Man,"
and Grady Nutt, comedian and
frequent guest on The Mike
Douglas Show, will appear in
the Auburn Coliseum on May
21.
Anderson, Nutt and many oth­ers
are being sponsored jointly
by the Fellowhsip of Christian
Athletes and the Religious Af­fairs
Committee. The program is
the result of a year's planning by
the Religious Affairs Committee
under the leadership of Tommy
Yearout, 3 PL.
"in bringing such people as
Paul Anderson and Grady Nutt,
we hope to get rid of the nega­tive
'religious' connotation,"
said Carol Eidschun, 4SA, as­sistant
director of religious af­fairs.
"This program can make an
impact besides being a lot of
fun," said Babs Welch, 3GSP,
a member of the committee.

Vincentian
St. Vincent de Paul was a Christ-like priest, a warm-hearted man
with unbounded love for his fellow man, especially the poor, the
sick, the oppressed and the neglected. His life was spent ministering
to their needs. He preached to them, taught them, fed them and
even begged for them. Like Christ, he came not to be served but
to serve.
Today the Vincentians, the sons of St. Vincent, carry on his work.
As a Vincentian, you can ease the misery of the poor and the suf­fering
of the sick. They counsel the troubled and the oppressed.
They teach the young and console the old and enlighten men of all
ages. They try to meet the needs of the Church wherever they exist.
The Vincentians serve.

Grady Nutt, who says he is a
"nonathlete." can be described
by one key word—versatility.
He sings, tells humorous stor­ies,
juggles and plays half-a-dozen
musical instruments, the
most unusual of which is a
tiple, which is, according to
Nutt, a 10-stringed "ukelele
with thyroid trouble." He calls
it a Biblical instrument because
"the player's left hand never
knows what his right hand is do­ing!"
Grady Nutt is a Baptist mini­ster,
but not an ordinary one by
any means. Most of the time
his pulpit is the concert stage
or a plate of ham and green peas.
He is now averaging over 100

on and by both sides. We
must meet in the middle, not
on one side or the other." He
on one side or the other." He
advocated more student repre­sentation
on the University
Senate and more joint projects.
Two students now sit on the U-niversity
Senate.
To provide effective organi­zation
for administration of
student activities Hill said any
administration faced the problem
of having to depend largely on
volunteer workers. To increase
continuity among SGA workers
his administration had salaried
more Executive Cabinet posi­tions
and passed a salary law
which Hill said will make it
easier to salary other positions.
"Check the facts. The SGA
is an open organization," de­clared
Hill. To provide effective
channels for student opinion
the SGA dissolved Greek domi­nated
political parties, lowered
candidate qualifications and
enlarged the Student Senate.
Teacher Evaluation, the Grie­vance
Procedure, a revamp of
the Grade Appeals Board and
the Academic Atmosphere Com­mittee
were attempts to promote
academic responsibility and
freedom, said Hill. He called
the Academic Atmosphere Com­mittee
a "miserable failure,"
but a chance for tomorrow.
Also at the banquet eight pro­fessors
received outstanding
professor awards for the year
1969 to 1970. The are Ward S.
Allen, associate professor of
English; George H. Blake, pro­fessor
of Zoology and Entomo­logy;
Richard K. Means, pro­fessor
of Health, Physical Ed­ucation
and Recreation; Bruce
E. Herring, assistant professor
of Industrial Engineering; Mar-jorie

of Family and Child De­velopment;
Charles M. Darling,
associate professor of Phar­macy;
William H. Allen, As­sociate
professor of Manage­ment;
and Clark L. Holloway,
professor and department head
of Anatomy and Histology.
AWS Workshop
men," she continued.
As to the no-curfew policy, all
the officers agree that self-regu­lating
hours should be expanded,
but opinions vary as to which
classes should receive the privi­lege
for next fall. The rules com­mittee
suggested juniors and sen­iors,
but final recommendation
will be made by the workshop.
All recommendations made by
the workshop are subject to the
approval of Dean Cater and Pres­ident
Philpott. A survey of par­ents
is desired by the President
before he approves further
changes in the curfew policy.
This desire is caused by the
large number of letters President
Philpott has received from parents
and alumni expressing disapproval
of the self-regulating hours given
graduating seniors this quarter.
In another question AWS offi­cers
agreed that to some extent
men on campus are responsible
for the current pressure to liber­alize
curfews. Martha Ann Dunn,
IAWS Contact, answered, " I think
men have a great deal to do with
the desire for rules changes. Why
stay out late if you aren't with a
date?"
Miss McCord stated, "I think
the men's opinions have had a
definite influence, and although
they are a major part of the Uni­versity,
I believe that women stu­dents
should decide on rules
that concern women."
Miss McGilvray's comment was,
"I'm amazed by the interest and
concern which the men on our
campus, SGA in particular, are
showing in the welfare of Auburn
women. Perhaps next year one of
these males can run for AWS
president as happened recently
at the University of Utah."
Concerning the accuracy of
the survey on women's rules con­ducted
by The Plainsman, Inza
Fort, AWS secretary, stated that,
"only 800 of the 2747 women re­siding
in the dorms winter quar­ter
replied, and I really believe
that most of those who did not
reply support AWS and a gradual
change. It's a case of apathy-'
they're not dissatisfied so why
fill out a survey."
"I think some of the questions
on the survey were biased in
favor of changes and were not
objective," she added.
Student leaders
alumni opinion.
One student asked what prog-gress
was being made in the re­cruiting
of black students. Pres­ident
Philpott said that the prob­lem
is under consideration, and
that efforts at such a program
had already been made.
He noted that Auburn presently
has 192 black students in the
student body. "I was surprised
to find," he said, "that our per­centage
of black students is
higher than that of the University
of Michigan."
Jimmy Brennan, 3IE, SGA
vice president-elect, criticized
President Philpott's selection of
members for the committee study­ing
the possibility of a campus
radio station. He said that the
votes of various appointees were
predetermined.
President Philpott replied that
his appointments had been made
primarily on the basis of impar­tiality.
SGA President-elect Bob Doug­las,
3LPO, closed the meeting
with the plea that student lead­ers
take the problems into serious
consideration, stressing the
point that they should begin ac­tion
immediately.

What are you waiting for?
Wilson said that he hopes
President Philpott's decision
is not final. "I'd like to talk
with him," he said. "We had
hoped for at least an increase
of $50,000 in student activity
fees. The additional $16,800
President Philpott estimates we
will get will not do the job."
SGA Treasurer Chris Youtz
said his initial reaction was
disappointment. "It puts a dam­per
on new projects and is going
to hurt us next year."
Youtz added, "The cut will
hurt the proposed radio station
especially. Many groups didn't
get what they needed last year,
so I don't see where the money
for the station will come from."
Assistant Dean of Student
Affairs Charles S. Bentley, ad­viser
for the Glomerata, said he
hopes to get at least as much
money as last year. "Judging
by a 1965 survey conducted by
Dean Foy, the Glomerata is
number two in popularity among
students, so I hope the budget
is set accordingly."
Union Building Director Cla­rence
Cook said "I really don't
know. I'm certainly going to
try to be optimistic about it."
Tommy Yearout of the Reli­gious
Affairs Committee said,
"We "re going to ask for more
money this year than last. Our
May 21 rally will cost about
$1500-all the money we re­ceived
this year, so we had
planned to ask for an increase
over last year."
Dean of Women Katharine
Cater, who also heads the Con­cert
Committee said, "I can only
be hopeful. I hope the Senate
will review all requests care­fully."
Lucy McCord, president of
the Associated Women Students
said she is "not knowledgeable
enough on the subject to say."
Give your
contact lenses
a bath
tonight In order to keep your contact lenses as
comfortable and convenient as they were
meant to be, you have to take care of
them. But until now you needed two or
more separate solutions to properly
prepare and maintain your contacts. Not
with Lensine. Lensine is the one lens
solution for complete contact lens care.
Cleaning your contacts with Lensine
retards the buildup of foreign deposits on
the lenses. And soaking your contacts in
Lensine overnight assures you of proper
lens hygiene. You get a free soaking case
on the bottom of every bottle of Lensine.
It has been demonstrated that improper
storage between wearings may result in
the growth of bacteria on the lenses.
This is a sure cause of eye irritation and
in some cases can endanger your vision.
Bacteria cannot grow in Lensine which is
sterile, self-sanitizing, and antiseptic.
Just a drop or two of Lensine, before you
insert your lens, coats and lubricates it
allowing the lens to float more freely in
the eye's fluids. That's because
Lensine is an "isotonic" solution,
which means that it blends with
the natural fluids of the eye.
Let your contacts be the
convenience they were
meant to be. Get
some Lensine, from the
Murine Company, Inc.

Male elected
AWS president
BY NEAL SIMS
The Associated Women Students of the University of Utah
has a new president-a man.
Don Brady, 24, of Salt Lake City polled 48 votes as a
write-in candidate to 43 for runner-up Shauna Baynes.
"I'm glad about it," said Brady. "I think all presiden­tial
posts should be held by men.
"Last year there was a council of eight women. I'm go­ing
to appoint eight men."
AWS officials said they would contest the results.
HELP FOR DRUG USERS
Young people experiencing bad trips from drugs can get
help in Gainesville, Fla. A three-bedroom house has been
converted into what University of Florida students refer to
as the "Corner Drugstore." There volunteers help drug
users return to normal by providing love and physical con­tact.
The methods have proved so successful that the National
Institute of Mental Health has asked the founder to be a
consultant at a federal narcotics hospital.
REPRIMANDED COEDS
The female editor of the Jacksonville University yearbook
is facing charges that she did not represent the best in­terests
of the university in publishing the annual.
The administration will hold a hearing to decide if the
editor should be allowed to graduate because of a picture
in the yearbook of two nude girls walking across the cam­pus.
The editor said, "I think it is pretty silly that they have
to threaten my graduation."
An 18-year-old coed at Murray State University in Ken­tucky
was suspended because she was pregnant. The school
dismissed her, saying that she violated a state law against
fornication.
The girl filed a suit in the U.S. District Court, seeking
an injunction against the school on the grounds that the^
university policy cited is unwritten and that her rights to
privacy were unduly invaded.
G/ofli may eliminate
undergrad section
The cost of publishing a yearbook with a university
the size of Auburn is very high. Every year these costs
rise with the increase in the student body's size. Be­cause
the student body is growing every year, the class
section of the Glomerata grows also, comprising ap­proximately
oneHhird of the yearbook. If costs are to
be kept at an affordable level, something must be done
now. The only solution seen by the Glomerata is a dis­continuance
of the graduate and undergraduate sections,
leaving only the senior class section.
Since this would be a major alteration to the Glomerata ,
which is a student publication comprised for and by the
students, the Glomerata staff wants student approval to
put this measure into effect. Below is a ballot by which
you can approve or object to this proposal. Please tear
it out, mark your choice and deposit it in one of the col­lection
boxes marked Glomerata located around campus.

Budget requests heard
Senate begins hearings
By BEVERLY BRADFORD
The newly-elected 30-
member Student Senate be:
gan its hearing for bud­getary
requests from stu­dent
projects Wednesday
night. The hearings will
continue tonight and end
Monday night.
After all scheduled re­quests
have been heard, the
Budget and Finance Com­mittee
will study them and
recommend allocations to
the Senate May 14.
The Senate will make its
allocations recommendations
to Pres. Harry M. Philpott on
May 26.
At the final meeting of the
last 12-man Senate in Au­burn's
history April 22, the
SGA election for president
and vice president of the
School of Veterinary Medi-eine
was contested by three
members of the School who
claimed that insufficient no­tice
was made of the fact that,
the offices would be elected
this year for the first time.
Former SGA President Da-,
vid Hill told the Senate that
the notice for the offices had
been made in The Plainsman
at the same time all other
offices were announced for
qualifications.
However, when by the orig­inal
deadline no one had
qualified for either of the of­fices,
Hill extended the
deadline. The protestors
claimed that the notice did
not reach all members of the
school.
Hill announced the dead­line
extension at a meeting
of candidates for SGA offices
last quarter.
In protest, a write-in cam­paign
was held on election
day in the Vet School and
the write-in candidates re­ceived
more votes than the
official candidates.
But the Constitution does
not recognize write-in bal­lots.
The Senate referred the
matter to the Jurisprudence
Committee. If Jurisprudence
finds that the election con­test
is constitutionally jus­tified,
the new Senate will
act on the matter.
The Senate also approved
Title VIII of the Constitu-tion-
the Finance Law, which
outlines the procedure stu­dent
activity projects will
follow in requesting money
from the activities fund.
At a meeting Monday night,
the new Senate voted on of­ficers.
John Causey was e-lected
president pro tern and
will preside in the absence
of SGA Vice President Jimmy
Brennan.
Mary Ann Wages was elec­ted
Clerk of the Senate and
Linda Zuber was elected as­sistant
clerk.
Causey and Miss Wages
will serve by office as mem­bers
of the Rules Committee.
Also elected to the Rules
Committee were Bruce Gilli-land
and Doug Davis, repre­senting
a school and a liv­ing
district, respectively.
Job, Travel
Committee
plans tours
Many opportunities fol
summer jobs and travel
have been made available)
to Auburn students through
the Summer Jobs and Stu­dent
Travel Committee,
and several travel tours
are in the planning stages
this year, according to
Chester Harvey, 3ED,
chairman of the committee.
"We are not an employ­ment
agency, but rather a
referral agency serving stu­dents
seeking summer jobs,"
said Harvey.
Students referred to de­partments
of agencies for
summer work carry with them
a letter from the student
body president endorsing the
student to the potential em­ployer.
Each student also
fills out a resume of his
qualifications and needs to
aid in summer job place­ment.
Plans are underway for a
Student Government Associ­ation
sponsored travel tour
over holidays, quarter breaks
and the summer.
A student travel directory
is also available free of
charge to students who come
by the office in the execu­tive
cabinet room in the Un­ion
Building. The directory
outlines places to eat and
things to see and do on tours
to Mobile, Atlanta, New
Orleans and other southern
cities.
Harvey said that his of­fice
is always open to stu­dents
who want to come in
any afternoon*

New theatre to open May 7 termite! T.££A16PSUTW
By LYN BABB
The newest and largest
film theatre in this sec­tion
of Alabama will open
next Thursday at 7:30 p.
in. with the Academy A-
^vard-winning "Anne of
jthe Thousand Days."
The Village Theatre, a
member of the Wilby-Kincey
JTheatre Chain, is located
on North Gay St. next to
Auburn Public Library, and
was built at a cost of
$350,000. Bill McGee, of
Six Associates, Ashville
N.C.and a former professor
of architecture at Auburn,
was the architect for the
structure.
The new theatre has sev­eral
new features that are
not only new to Auburn but
also new to the entire area.
The curved, reflector type
screen is 55 feet wide and
28 feet tall. A super wide-screen
presentation system
known as Ultra-vision, de­veloped
by E.H. Geissler,
will be used to fill the
large screen.' The system
essentially consists of two
projectors that focus the
image on the screen from
end to end rather than just
in the middle as is the case
of
