Coed suit dismissed, curfew change requested
AWS seeks curfew end
for juniors, sophomores
By Cindy Brtradage
Plainsman Staff Writer
Associated Women Students voted Monday to resubmit to
Pres. Harry M. Philpott and Dean of Women Katharine Cater
its earlier recommendation for ending all curfews for junior and
sophomore women.
The action came as an in­direct
result of U.S. District
Judge Frank M. Johnson's dis­missal
of the court case, which
charged the University with
discrimination against women
through its dormitory rules.
Philpott earlier told students
he would not act on the AWS
recommendation until after the
court had ruled on the case,filed
May 27.
Both the court case and the
AWS recommendations for rule
changes resulted from last
May's demonstrations against
women's mles. For a week be­ginning
with the day of a cam­pus-
wide student strike, several
coeds stayed overnight on the
President's lawn as a protest
against women's rules.
To go into effect, the AWS
recommendation must now be
approved by Dean Cater and
President Philpott. It would
provide for juniors and soph­omores
to be placed on the
same system that seniors are
using this quarter.
Under the system, a girl
with no-curfew permission signs
"key" on her in-and-out card
if she plans to return to the
dormitory . by., 9,a.m.. the next,
morning. She checks out a key
to the dormitory and must re­turn
it by 9 a.m.
If she does not plan to re­turn
to the dormitory at all,
she signs "overnight" on her
card and doesmot take a key.
Currently, sophomores may
stay out until 1:30 a.m. and
juniors until 2 a.m. on week­end
nights only. On weeknights,
both groups have 12 midnight
curfews.
President Philpott, in a meet­ing
Monday with SGA President
Bob Douglas, said the adminis­tration
wants to observe the
effectiveness of the program
for seniors this quarter before
deciding if it should be ex­tended
to include sophomores
and juniors.
President Philpott told Doug­las
there would be no changes
in women's rules this quarter.
He said, "Whatever is done
must be done with everyone in
mind."
Douglas replied that in the
students' view, the University
is "dragging its feet" about
women's rules. He urged that a
system be adopted immediately
whereby parents of the coeds
would have the say-so about
rules.
President Philpott said the
unexpected dismissal of the
court case leaves the Univer­sity
"faced with a variety of
alternatives" in the area of
women's rules.
A seven-man faculty com­mittee,
appointed by the Presi­dent
in August, is studying the
feasibility of "living-learning"
units for freshmen. Under this
system, dorms for freshmen
men and freshmen women would
contain classrooms also. The
students would live and attend
classes in the same building.
The present system could be
altered in one of two ways,
said President Philpott. The
University could alter its dormi­tory
rules to meet the AWS rec­ommendations.
Or it could main­tain
the present system of rules
but allow any coed with parental
permission to live off-campus.
President Philpott said the
latter system would be easier
to enforce since all coeds re­maining
in the dorms would be
governed by one set of rules.
When asked about the possi­bilities
for the AWS proposal be­ing
passed, Lucy McCord, pres­ident
of AWS, was hesitant to
reply as was Dean Cater. "It
has already been passed by
AWS," Miss McCord stated.
"Now all we need is the final
approval."
Dean Cater said it is some­thing
that must be given a great
deal of consideration because
"it still has a lot of bugs in it

Wallace said threat to state
Dr. John Cashin, National
Democratic Party of Alabama
(NDPA) gubernatorial candi­date,
pointed to George Wal­lace
as the greatest threat to
Alabamians as he lashed out
at racism in Alabama politics
Wednesday.
Cashin said he is using Hit­ler's
scapegoat and big lie tech­niques
in duping Alabamians in­to
believing George Wallace is
the only hope for Alabama. Wal­lace,
said Cashin, is responsible
for the mismanagement of state
money and natural resources.
The Wallace-Cater Act, which
gives preferential tax treatment
to industry, exploits the poor
people of Alabama and benefits
only thdse in the 'power elite',
said Cashin. Presently 75 per
cent of Alabama's tax money
comes from the sales, liquor,
tobacco and gasoline taxes. Cas­hin

Federal-state cooperation
needed on pollution-Brewer
Greater federal-state co­operation
and the establish­ment
of a single state agen­cy
for pollution control were
the central themes of Gov.
Albert Brewer's luncheon ad­dress
Thursday at the first
annual Alabama Environmen­tal
Conference.
Brewer, who spoke to the 200
BREWER ADDRESSES ENVIRONMENTAL CONFERENCE
Pres. Harry M. Philpott looks on as Gov. Albert P. Brewer speaks
persons attending the confer­ence,
emphasized the need for
federal laws controlling pollu­tion
on a national level. He
said that state efforts alone
have proved and will prove fu­tile
unless strengthened by
federal laws and funds.
A single state agency to deal
with all pollution problems could
coordinate programs more ef­fectively
than is done through
the many departments now deal­ing
with pollution problems in
the state, said Brewer. Minnes­ota
has such an agency, and,
according to Brewer, it has
worked well.
Beginning at 8:30 Wednesday
morning and closing at 3:30
Thursday afternoon, the con­ference
was conducted by the
Civil Engineering Department
and Engineering Extension Ser­vice
here. The Alabama Cham­ber
of Commerce, Alabama
League of Municipalities, Ala­bama
Department of Conserva­tion
and Alabama Department of
Public Health joined the Uni­versity
in sponsoring the con­ference.
This was the first such con­ference
conducted for the peo­ple
of Alabama, enabling lea­ders
of business and industry,
state and local governments,
conservation groups and others
concerned' about preserving the
quality of our environment to
discuss important issues in a
positive and constructive at­mosphere.
A report which objectively
identifies and assesses pollu­tion
problem areas has been
prepared by the Auburn Civil
Engineering Department. Copies
of this comprehensive report
were distributed to those attend-

pays only five per cent in taxes,
should bear a greater burden of
the state's tax revenue sources.
He favors an increase of two per
cent to make a seven per cent
total tax on industry in Alabama.
Alabama owes over S550 mil­lion
in bonded indebtedness and
$44 million is paid in interest
each year, stated Cashin. As
there is over $400 million in
state banks, which pay one and
one-half to two per cent interest,
Cashin favors putting this money
into federal treasury notes or
sound investments which would
pay eight per cent interest in or­der
to pay off the state's indebt­edness
in 26 years.
"Alabama has 10 per cent of
the nation's natural resources
yet contributes only three per
cent of the Gross National Pro­duct,"
said Cashin. Cashin be­lieves
George Wallace is re­sponsible
for the misuse of the
seven per cent discrepancy, but
did not state any specific in­stances.
Cashin, in relating Hilter's
scapegoat policy to George Wal­lace,
said "the Black man has
been the scapegoat in the past"
but as soon as this no longer
suits Wallace's plan he will
attack "intellectuals who don't
part their hair right or people
who wear glasses.
Asked why he was running
for governor, Cashin quipped,
"someone had to" and that he
wanted to give the people "a
chance to express their feel­ings."
He also cited an attempt
to "dramatize and publicize the
the importance of the NDPA
slate" as a major reason for
seeking the governor's chair.
Cashin also added that had Al­bert
Brewer won the Democratic
(Rooster) Primary he would not
have run.
In answer to accusations of
being a Black Nationalist Cash-said,
"Yes, I am black, and I
am nationalistic, but I am
nationalistic for the United
States." Cashin desires to free
Alabama and the South from bond-

AU showing 'good forth'
in nnes fberafeafion-Dees
By Alice Murray
Plainsman Staff Writer
U.S. District Judge Frank M. Johnson last Friday approved
a motion for dismissal of a suit charging Auburn University
with discrimination against three women students.
Judge Johnson approved the
motion the day after it was
filed by Montgomery attorney
Morris Dees, representing the
three coeds who filed the suit.
Dees said he filed the mo­tion
because the University
had shown "good faith" toward
liberalizing women's rules
since the filing of the suit.
However, the motion was filed
"without prejudice," meaning
it can be refiled at any time.
Dees' motion caught by sur­prise
both the plaintiffs in the
case and Pres. Harry M. Phil­pott,
who was to have appeared
in court Tuesday for a hearing.
The motion listed several
reasons for requesting dismis­sal
of the case. The first, which
said the University had libera­lized
its requirement for female
students to live in University
dorms since filing of the suit,
was discredited by University
officials.
According to AWS president
Lucy McCord, the requirement
was changed in March to allow
women to live off-campus pro­vided
they are over 21 or clas­sified
as seniors. The suit
was filed May 27.
The motion also said Dr. Phil­pott
testified that "Auburn
planned to liberalize its women's
rules in the future and that he
conducted a survey of parents
as a first step to determine
parental attitudes.
Also, said the motion, Presi­dent
Philpott was working toward
the goal of requiring both men
and women to live in dorms,
but had not had time to imple­ment
any such program. "It is
assumed that the defendants
will work toward this goal,"
said the motion.
The motion said die depen­dents,
"because of their cur­rent
attitude to liberalize their
female rules, should be given
time to work this matter out
within their existing program
and facilities."
"Defendants, plaintiffs con­cede,
are in a better position
to evaluate the educational as­pects
of these changes and the
speed of their implementation,"
concluded Dee's motion.
A spokesman for the coeds
who brought the suit said they
plan no further action at this
time.
Decline seen
in enrollment
for foil quarter
Auburn's official enrollment
for fall quarter has fallen far
below expectations according
to final registration figures from
the Registrar's Office.
The number of students en­rolled
for this quarter presently
stands at 14,200-more than r.OOO
short of the predicted number
and more than 300 less than
enrollment for fall quarter last
year.
Although the enrollment drop
will have a definite effect on
the University's revenue, no
serious. problems with the bud­get
are foreseen according to
Pres. Harry M. Philpott.
James E. Foy, dean of student
affairs, said, "If we were con­servative

Senate says Vet School
may set own exam times
The Student Senate unanimously passed a resolution in their
first meeting Monday allowing the School of Veterinary Medi­cine
to depart from the final examination schedule used by the
rest of the University.
The resolution, proposed by
John Causey, off-campus sena­tor,
will allow individual clas­ses
and their respective facul­ties
to determine the time of
their examinations by mutual
agreement.
The resolution cited several
reasons for allowing examina­tions
to be determined in such a
manner.
Among these were the facts
that the School of Veterinary
Medicine determines its own ad­mission
and curriculum require­ments
and that members of each
class attend their respective
classes as an entire group ra­ther
than in small classes as
elsewhere in the University.
In other action Monday night,
the Senate, reviewed the actions
of the Summer Senate, heard re­ports
and plans for the year of
various committees and tabled
a motion for one week which, if
passed,would abolish campaign­ing
for the title of Homecoming
Queen.
The Senate is scheduled to
meet again Monday night.

Graduate record exams
scheduled for Oct.24
The Educational Testing
service at Princeton, N.J.
has announced that under­graduates
and others plan­ning
to go to graduate school
may take the Graduate Re­cord
Examination on any of
six different test dates
during the current academic
year.
The first testing date for
the GRE is Oct. 24, 1970.
Scores will be reported to
the graduate schools by
Dec. 1.
All prospective graduate
students who wish to apply
for financial aid should
submit their applications
now. Four of the best known
scholarships are the Wood-row
Wilson Fellowship,
the Danforth Fellowship,
the Rhodes Scholarship and
Fulbright Scholarships.
A late fee of three dol­lars
is charged for GRE
applications received after
Oct. 6. After Oct. 9, there
is no guarantee that appli­cations
for the October test
can be processed.
The other five test dates
are Dec. 12, 1970, and Jan.
16, Feb. 27, April 24 and
June 17,1971. Late fee rules
similar to those for the
Oct. 24 test date apply to
these tests.
The Graduate Record.
Examination includes a
general aptitude test and
advanced tests in 20 major
fields of study.
Anyone interested in the
GRE can obtain the neces­sary
forms and information
at the Graduate School Of­fice.
The Woodrow Wilson and
Danforth Fellowships, both
of which stress the humani­ties
and social sciences,
are limited to graduate stu­dents
who plan a career in
college teaching. However,
some awards are made to
students for graduate study
in mathematics and scienc­es.
Fulbright scholarships
and various foreign govern­ment
grants enable hun­dreds
of Americans to study
in Europe, Latin America,
Africa and Asia.

Study on Aug abuse
held by Dr. Shell
By Beth Bartlett
Plainsman Staff Writer
A study on drugs and drug
abuse is being conducted on
the Auburn campus by Assis­tant
Professor William B.
Shell of the Department of
Secondary Education.
Dr. Shell is being aided
by Jim Blackwell, a graduate
student who is a professor
on leave from Pennsacola
Junior College.
Using national data and
research on local drug users,
Dr. Shell began compiling
his information three years
ago in the "Seek-it," his in­novation
in the field of in­dividualized
education.
Seek-it, which is an abbre­viation
for Self-Directed Ed­ucational
Experience Kit,
seeks to motivate the student
bj? p r e s e n t i n g him with
aShieveable goals. The stu­dent
works through the self-explanatory
kit at his own
pace and assumes the respon-ibility
for his own learning.
This idea is reflected in the
Seek-it's slogan: "if it is to
be, it is up to me."
Seek-it's have been suc­cessfully
field tested in sev­eral
area public s c h o o l s.
Teachers and students alike
welcome its appearance since
it largely replaces the lecture
teaching method. The infor­mally
written Seek-it's are
accompanied by poems, il­lustrations
and sound film
strips and are completely
non-moralizing.
A general Seek-it on drug
abuse has been completed,
and ones on barbiturates,
amphetamines, opiates and
LSD are being written. Each
features the colorful cartoon
character, Herman the Hip­pie.

In an apparent misunder­standing
between security
guards and the Athletic De­partment,
some unpunched
I.D. cards were confiscated
at the Auburn-Tennessee
football game held Saturday
afternoon at Legion Field
in Birmingham.
The problem arose when
the Pinkerton security guards
apparently misunderstood
their instructions and started
confiscating the I.D.'s of
students who had student
t i c k e t s but had no hole
punched in their I.D.'s show­ing
that they had purchased
their tickets themselves.
According to David Housel,
director of ticket sales for
the Athletic Department,
"The whole thing was an un­fortunate
misunderstanding.
The Pinkertons were told to
check the I.D.'s very care­fully
and were just doing
their jobs."
The Pinkertons knew that
the I.D.'s were punched up­on
the purchase of the tick­ets
and assumed that anyone
having a ticket without a
punched I.D. was guilty of
misusing his I.D.card. Foot­ball
tickets are not transfer­able.
This rule is not en­forced,
but the Pinkertons
were not informed to that
effect.
Representatives from the
Athletic Department correct­ed
the Pinkertons as soon as
it was learned what was hap­pening.
It is not known if
anyone was turned away for
this reason, but officials are
reasonably sure everyone
was admitted.
"There will be no fines
given to anyone whose I.D.
was picked up for this rea­son,"
said Housel. "How-,
ever, there will be fines for
anyone who misused his
I.D."
Anyone who has not yet
picked up his confiscated
I.D. may do so at the Athlet­ic
Department Office in the
Coliseum.

Our three favorite merchants
One of our three favorite merchants
last week passed out free cokes to
to the students who happened by on
their quarterly book-shopping trips.
And many of the students who grate­fully
accepted the cokes-it was a
hot day-were lured inside to put down
the traditional out-of-sight prices
for the quarter's textbooks.
A 20 per cent mark-up is included
in the publisher's list price'which
the three commercial bookstores
charge for new books. Perhaps that
is a fair-if generous-margin.
But where the students really get
hit is when they sell and buy used
books. The process is a familiar
one.
At the end of the quarter, the stu­dent,
fed up with the course after the
final exam and eager to be rid of the
physical reminder of it, stalks in to
sell his book for CASH. The book
buyer glances at the book, shakes
his head, and apologetically hands
over 50 per cent of what it cost new.
The book may be only three months
old at this point.
Knowing full well he's been had,
the student grimaces, grabs the pre­cious
CASH and retreats with a scowl
on his face. The book is replaced
on the shelf in the bookstore, where
it rests through the quarter break un­til
another student comes in to buy
it for 75 per cent of what it cost
new.
-Quarterly thereafter, the bookstore
is fairly consistent in charging 75
per cent of the original price each
time it resells the used book. But
it is less consistent in paying
a full 50 per cent (already a low fig­ure)
of the original price each time
it rebuys the used textbook.
And so it goes, until the book dis­integrates
or until the instructor se­lects
a new text. Thus one textbook
can, and usually does, eam a healthy
profit for a bookstore four times a
year.
Impatience is the tragic flaw which
keeps bringing students back to the
three commercial bookstores, addicts
committed to the CASH compulsion.
The Alpha Phi Omega Book Ex­change

and their modest 10 per cent profit
is returned in campus benefits. But
A Pni 0 can hardly compete with the
lure of CASH and the aggressive ad­vertising
programs of the commercial
bookstores.
So the choice i s left to the student:
control the CASH compulsion and
shop at A Phi 0, or start each quar­ter
with a scowl.
Ticket sales displease everyone
The system by which football tick­ets
are being sold seems to nave'dis^
pleased nearly everyone in one way
or another.
I Lines were between two and three
hours long. Some freshmen and stu­dent
wives may be unable to purchase
tickets to the Alabama game. ID cards
listed incorrect classifications which
only the registrar, far away in Martin
Hall, could correct. Some cards were
taken up at Saturday's game by mis­informed
guards who thought they
were illegal because they had not
been punched. Students were not al­lowed
to buy guest tickets adjacent
to their seats for non-student dates.
Complaints to the Athletic Depart­ment
have been loud, bitter and quite
frequently justified.
We do not envy the Athletic De­partment
its role in allocating and
distributing football tickets. A first-class
athletic program cannot be run
on revenue from the sale of $1 stu­dent
tickets, but neither can alumni
and the public provide the support
the football team must have to win.
^Presently,"students "are not irepre-sented
on the Faculty Athletic Com­mittee,
which determines the alloca­tion
of tickets for sales. We think stu­dents
should have a representative
voice on the Committee.
Further, the Student Senate, with
its wider representation after last
spring's election, could do a better
job of arranging student ticket prior­ities
for purchase of tickets than tthe
ad hoc student-faculty committee ap­pointed
by President Philpott last
year.
And finally, we'd like to see the
long ticket lines done away with once
and for all. We see no reason why
students could not order their tickets
by mail in the summer when they com­plete
registration.
We realize no system can satisfy
everyone. But we think these changes
would shift the problem of student
ticket sales to those most qualified
to deal with it fairly-the students
themselves.

'If anything can go wrong, it will' at Plainsman
It is generally considered
unprofessional for a publica­tion
to expose its internal
problems to the public. Thus
it is that the average Au­burn
student, stumbling half-asleep
to his Friday 8 o'
clock class, sees nothing
unusual in the presence of
the stack of Plains mans
which awaits him.
But last week's abortive
attempt by the Plainsman
staff to dazzle our Friday
morning critics with a color
display picture on page one
merits more than the know­ledge
of the paper's staff.
The process was a drama­tic
rendering of the axiom
which has since become
the Plainsman staff's motto;
"If anything can go wrong,
it will."
The incident, which as­sumed
disaster proportions
before its resolution, began
with an overly ambitious
photographer who happens
to have a pilot's license.
It was he, Roger Wentowski,
who you saw buzzing over­head
in a small white plane
during the first football game
in newly-expanded Cliff
Hare Stadium.
In the way of background
information, it is important
that you understand the pro­cedure
involved when the
Plainsman prints a color
picture. The front section
of the paper must be trans­ported
to lontgomver fo
the color run. Thus the dead­line
is a day earlier than
the one which applies for
black-and-white printing,
here in Auburn.
Ever the optimist, Roger
shot a roll of color film for
the heck of it while he was
in the air annoying the crowd
and shooting his assignment
for a black-and-white aerial
shot of the newly-rounded
stadium.
For black and white pro­cessing,
two chemicals are
involved. For color, there
are nine, the first four of
which must be kept at an
exact temperature of 68 de­grees.
For this, Roger need­ed
nine glass bottles.
A subsequent one-woman
search of the area variety,
grocery, and drug store re­fuse
heaps provided the
bottles, and by 3 a.m. Sun­day
the film was ready.
We won't describe the
events which fell in the
interim between early Mon­day
morning when the trans­parency
was delivered to
Montgomery and early Thurs­day
morning when the front
section was readied for publi­cation.
Early on Thursday, Plains­man
managing editor John
Samford set out for Mont­gomery
in a rented -van. He
was to deliver the front
section paste-ups and return
with the 19,500 front sections.
At mid-morning, he returned
to Auburn to pick up a cor­rection
to change a front*
page story from "Philpott
to appear in court Tuesday"
to "Dismissal of coed suit
asked."
John arrived back in Mont­gomery
just in time to make
the change and watch the
press break down. Three
hours; later, after repairs,
the .Plainsman color run
began. A few minutes later,
the electric power went off
in the building. (We found it
odd that the power failure
affected only- the building
where the paper was being
printed.)
At 10:30 p.m. Thursday
night, John gave up his Wait
in the cold, wet (the roof
leaks) and very dark print­ing
plant. He returned to
Auburn with the paste-ups
of the four front pages and
a black-and-white shot was
substituted for the color
picture.
The Bulletin Publishing
Company, which had already
printed the two back sec­tions
of the paper, kindly
printed the front one also on
only two hours' notice, and
at 1 a.m. the process of
"stuffing" the three sec­tions
together began.
Hard-core Plainsman staf­fers,
the faithful staff of the
Bulletin, and a few very de­voted
friends worked until
5 a.m. to complete the job.
By about 6 a.m. the papers
were delivered and an hour
later the first students began
picking them up.
Please don't think we're
complaining, because we
like our job. We just wanted
to explain why it may be a
while before you see another
color picture in the Plains­man.

Extracurriculars are not 'be-all'
VW\klEC''V\ E 60T THE PART THAT MATTERS.
JHortho Evans
There is much talk each
fall quarter about what makes
for campus "success," i.e.,
extracurricular a c t i v i t i e s.
The greater portion of this
chatter is directed towards
freshmen.
This orientation, indoc­trination,
is at once func­tional
and disfunctional.
That is, it serves positively
and negatively to orient new­comers
to the Auburn 'cam­pus.
It is functional in that it
is informative; newcomers
learn what the campus has to
offer. Campus activities can
enrich a person and at the
same time a person can en­rich
the campus. This in
turn provides a training!
ground for the role as a re-!
sponsible adult citizen in the
community.
Campus activities are of­ten
called a part of the edu­cational
experience-learn­ing
to deal with people, de-^
ve loping leadership poten­tial.
This they can be to
greater and lesser degrees,
there is no denying. 'They
offer the opportunity to meet
people and build personal
relationships.
Certain activities among
the many provide profession­al
experience and training.
The Plainsman is an obvious
example. Aspiring journal­ists
get practical training
which complements academic
theory.
Many times extracurricular
activities are a factor when
businesses interview pros­pective
employees. Inter­viewers
look carefully at
extracurriculars, as well as
grades, when they consider
an applicant for employ­ment.
Besides all of this, clubs
and such can be "just plain
fun."
But the "involvement
theory" has its disfunctional
Peace symbol goes way of Santa,Easter bunny
It happened to Santa
Claus. It ruined the Easter
bunny and Halloween. Now,
the" peace symbol is about
to succumb to commercial­ism.
I've gotten used to Christ­mas
starting in early Novem­ber
when artificial trees
sprout all over America. And
I ignore the dime stores full
of stale candy Easter eggs.
Seeing the look-alike hob­goblins
troop along the
street at Halloween in their
expensive store-bought cos­tumes
and unscary plastic
masks, I shudder.
I had hoped the peace
symbol was immune. It isn't.
The first emblem I re­member
seeing was hand­made
from a rough grayish
metal and attached to a
leather chain. I felt about
it like the colonists must
have felt when Betsy Ross
first displayed her hand-sewn
flag-possessive,
proud.
The peace symbol pro­vided
needed proof of my
unity with other Americans.
I wasn't alone in my hope
never to have to depend on
"bombs bursting in air" for
proof that the flag was still
around, along with grass,
trees and people (whose sur­vival
I worry about more
than the. flag's anyway).
Then commercialism gave
the peace symbol the Christ­mas-
Easter-Halloween treat­ment.
Coffee mugs with peace
symbol appliques (available
last year at Big Bear for
about 19 cents). Oecals for
cars. Pants suits (selling
for $35 in my hometown this
summer) with peace symbols
as the design instead of
flowers. Overpriced jewelry
with a peace'symbol design.
Belt buckles.
There's probably also a
line of men's underwear
available for the fashion-conscious
male shopper de­corated
with peace symbols
in assorted colors.
Auburn may even have a
neon peace symbol in the
next year or two. Some astute
businessman could erect it
on a very tall revolving pole
across from Samford Park
(even bigger and better than
Johnston and Malone's bright
red letters).
. The sign could blink on
and off like the bank's time
and temperature gimmick, but
with three possibilities:
first, the symbol itself in
red, then the word "Peace"
in white followed by "Shop
at . . . " in red.
Maybe peace will get here
before the sign does.
aspects as well. Its most
recognizable feature is its
one-sidedness. Almost every­one
seems to be a "yes
man." In the three-plus years
I- have spent on this campus,
I cannot think of a single
person who ever said, "Stop
and think. Be sure that you
want to be involved. Be sure
that you don't sacrifice what
may be very important in the
long run for something of
short term value." Excep­tion:
my parents.
In extolling the virtues of
campus involvement, the im­pression
is often left that
everyone is involved, that
everyone loves it, and that
if you are not involved, then
something is wrong with you.
The attitude arises that if
you do not participate, then
you are a failure.
And it is at this point that
I take violent exception to
the. '' involve me nt Jhepry,.''
Jt is a case of proportion, or
disproportion. Campus, ac­tivities
have many good
points to recommend them,
but they are not the be'-1rll
and end-all. .
Activities can become ends
in themselves. Health may
suffer. Grades may slide.
Other times the activities
themselves become duties
to be performed-"They're
just no fun anymore."
There is no one set cri­terion
for college ' 'success.''
is relative to the individu­al.
It is your right to choose.
However you may choose,
let the choice be worth it to

Five or ten years from
now may you look back and
say, "I'm glad I did it," or
"I'm glad I didn't." These
are years to do with as you
wish.
University is afraid of parental opinion
By Bob Douglas
' Let's all turn our minds back for
a moment. Back to May 21, 1970.
I'm sure you remember it-it was
generally referred to as Strike Day.
Remember?
It was the day the coeds got a
chance to openly grill Dean Cater.
It was the day over 10 per cent of
the student body marched on the
President's home. It was the day
Dr. Philpott spent out among the
students engaging in dialogue. That
was Strike day. What had started
as a discussion of the war and our
national priorities developed into
Auburn's first large scale protest.of
the existing Victorian social code.
Q. But what has happened in the
last four months?
A, Students have acted-and have
acted responsibly. During a period
when students had closed down over
200 other colleges and universities,
Auburn students chose to work
through the system that their fellow
students in other areas of the coun­try
had abandoned. Associated Wom­en
Students, for the first time in my
memory, answered the call for a
modern set of social rules, recom­mending
to Dean Cater and Dr. Phil­pott
a system by which sophomores,
juniors and seniors would be allowed
to regulate their own hours.
A smaller and braver group of co­eds
filed suit against the Univer­sity
to effect elimination of all rules
directed solely at women. Auburn
students worked through the chan­nels
open to them to establish on
our campus what is already enjoyed
at the vast majority of major Ameri­can
universities. While buildings
were being occupied at Georgia and
burned at Alabama, Auburn students
acted responsibly and are obviously
deserving of reward.
Q. But where is the reward?
A. There is no reward.
Q. Why?
A. ???
To find an answer let's trace
administrative action, or rather the
lack of it, since May 21.
The court suit was the adminis­tration's
first excuse. Rule changes
while the suit was pending would
damage the university's case, stu­dents
were told. The latest AWS
proposal could not be considered
until the case was resolved.
The case has now been dismissed.
Obviously, the AWS proposal can
now be considered. Right? Wrong.
Dr. Philpott has now decided that
the events of May 21 placed undue
pressure on AWS and that the pro­posal
for sophomore, junior and
senior self-regulated hours should
be reconsidered and studied fur­ther.
Apparently the President does
not consider two years of AWS study
sufficient.
Dr. Philpott spent Strike Day talk­ing
to students. He knows student
feeling about curfews. He has seen
responsible student action to estab­lish
self-regulated hours. He has
seen self-regulated hours programs
become smoothly operating realities
on the campuses that surround us.
Why does he not respond? The ans­wer
one finally is given if he per­sists
in questioning the President
is that Auburn University is afraid
of parental opinion.
Perhaps I missed the action, but
does anyone remember parental riots
when Alabama or Georgia or Florida
adopted self-regulating hours poli­cies?
I don't recall any deposed
presidents.
Perhaps, Dr. Philpott, you should
give to parents what my mother gave
to me four years ago, a passage
from "The Prophet" by Kahlil Gib-ran:
Your children are not your
children.
They are the sons and daugh­ters
of Life's longing for it­self.
They come through you but
not from you,
And though they are with
you, yet they belong not to you.
You may give them your love
but not your .thoughts.
For they have their own
thoughts.
You may house their bodies
but not their souls,
For their souls dwell in the
house of tomorrow which you
cannot visit, not even in your
dreams. •
You may strive to be like
: them, but seek not to make them
like you.
For life goes .not backward
nor tarries with yesterday.
Or perhaps Harry Bailey, the
graduate student played by Elliott
Gould in the movie "Getting
Straight," said it best when he told
his university president, "If you
don't stop trying to hold back the
hands of time, they'll rip your arms
out."

She said the changes should be
made gradually, working down
from seniors to juniors, etc.
She said it would be confus­ing
to change the system in the
middle of the quarter and added
that some regulations are pro­fitable
for the girls, especially
freshmen. "I don't think girls
who come to college for the first
time know how to regulate their
time while making so many de­cisions,"
she said.

' fees, the enrollment drop may

versity budget."
There are several reasons
for the drop in enrollment ac­cording
to President Philpott.
He said the drop is due in
part to the "tight money" situa­tion
in the country which makes
it difficult for students to ob­tain
loans, to the decrease in
pressure from the draft which
might cause several males to
work instead of coming to school,
and to the fact that Auburn is

The report negates any
grounds for a special session
of. the legislature to deal with
pollution, Rep. Phil Smith said
Wednesday. "It does not point
to any crisis, only an urgency,"
he said. The report suggests
that major pollution problems
should be well on the way to
solution by the middle of the
decade.
"The optimism expressed
may surprise some of you and
anger others," Prof. Fred Hud­son
said, in presenting the sum­mary.
"At present, the optimism
is justified. The laws necessary
for a rollback of pollution are on
the books. They will become
even more stringent in the fu­ture
as can be seen by amend­ments
to the Federal Air Pollu­tion
Control Act which are now
before Congress, and the re­treat
in Alabama of anti-pollu­tion
control forces."

Walter A. Hamilton, deputy
assistant secretary of commerce
and executive director of the
National Industrial Pollution
Control Council, which was
formed in April of this year,
was the luncheon speaker Wed­nesday.
Hamilton said too many laws
which cannot be enforced breed
disrespect. They may also cost
more than they're worth. He
cited the "Penalty for Litter­ing"
signs which bring in less
monies than the cost of the
signs.
"If laws are going to be put
on the books, they need to be
rational and properly funded and
enforced," he said. Hamilton
read a letter from Pres. Richard
M. Nixon to Auburn Pres. Harry
M. Philpott, commending Auburn
on the conference.
Ed White, conference director,
said he was very pleased with
the turnout and interest shown
by participants. He hopes to

which will establish Auburn as

Establishing better communi­cation
between student and pro­fessor
is the aim of an experi­ment
in three sections of the
world history department at
Auburn, according to Dr. Wil­liam
Maehl, professor of his­tory.
Dr. Maehl said, since classes
were so large, tutorials are
being developed. Presently,
3,200 students are in world
history classes.
According to Dr. Maehl, the
tutorials- will; be divided into
10 small sections from a class
of atwut 350 students^ The tu­torials
meet once every six
class days, usually every se­cond
Friday.
These small tutorials are
usually led by a professor or
graduate student teacher. Du­ring
the session, students are
allowed to discuss questions
concerning classwork. Exact
arrangement of the tutorials is
left to the professor.
Dr. Maehl said that to offer
high quality instruction, world
history classes had to be large.
He recognizes the impersonal
feeling in large classes of 300-
400 students and the difficulty
in a professor-student relation­ship.,.
He feels tutorials could be
the solution. The experiment is
expected to continue for one
year.
Editor, The Plainsman:
In this modern age of high
speed technology and rapidly
changing ideas, it is refresh­ing
to find that at least part
of the world has remained more
or less unchanged through the
past 50 years.
I am referring to the methods
used by those protectors of
freedom, those champions of
justice, the Ail-American boys
who love Mom and apple pie,
the people who make up the
Auburn Police Department and
the Recorder's Court.
I have been in Auburn since
January, and during this time,
my apartment has been broken
into any my car was a complete
loss when I was run off the
road by someone who is still
unknown. Although both of these
inc idents were '' investigated''
by "Auburn's finest," I have
received no satisfaction that
the guilty culprits were appre­hended.
These two examples gave me
a look at the efficiency of the
local law enforcement system.
Recently, I had the opportunity
to observe firsthand how the
system works.
I was given a ticket for rid­ing
a motorcycle without a tail-light
and although I co-operated
in every way possible and did
not attempt to irritate the offi­cers
in any way, one of the two
was as ill-mannered as possi­ble.
He seemed as though all
his life people had picked on
him, and now was his chance to
get even and flout his author­ity.
After writing the citation,
he told the other officer to is­sue
another ticket for an ex­pired
driver's license. Appar­ently
this officer was illiterate
as well as ill-mannered since
my license clearly states "li­cense
valid through last day of
birth month in the year indicated
below" and not on the birthday
itself. It seems strange that a
police officer in a college town
is unable to read.
AU considers
interdisciplinary
study program
By Thorn Botsford
Plainsman Staff Writer
Dr. John Pauson, head of
the Department of Philosophy,
is considering the possibility
of establishing a program of
interdisciplinary studies in (he
humanities.
Still in the planning stage,
the program has received "some
encouragement" from the Uni­versity,
Dr. Pauson noted.
The program would offer an
A.B. degree with a major in
humanities and would correlate
a number of fields. For instance,
one program might emphasize
a certain relationship between
areas in English, philosophy
and psychology.
Many schools, including
Emory University, Florida State
University and the University
of Western Kentucky, have ini­tiated
interdisciplinary study
programs. Dr. Pauson noted that
the introduction of such a pro­gram
would conform to a trend
which holds interest all over
the United States.
The next day I went to the
police station to find out how
much my fine was to be and was
told that it would amount to
$14.50. I then inquired as to
whether or not court costs
would be added to that amount
in the event I wanted to go to
court. The lady at the desk in­formed
me that court costs were
included in the $14.50, so I
figured I had nothing to lose by
going to court.
When I was called before the
judge I was assessed a fine of
$19.50. This was supposedly
broken down into a $10 fine and
$9.50 court costs.
Apparently these guardians of
justice feel that they should
emulate the Gestapo tactics of
bygone days and those used in
certain countries today. In es­sence
these tactics are that a
person who submits without a
trial is given a lesser punish­ment
for the same offense than
one who wishes to take advan­tage
of his rights.

Loveliest end
draws criticism
Editor, The Plainsman:
Hats off to Miss Bradford and
her revisionism. As Auburn Stu­dents
we should band together to
praise her for her courage in re­moval
of the L o v e 1 i e s t of the
Plains feature from The Plains­man.
It took courage not only to
judge from the female perspective
the merits of a 20 year old fea­ture
that appeals summarily to
males, but to pass judgement on
this evil without consulting the
student body for whom the paper
is published.
Ah, but we understand. As our
bold editor has so worthily point­ed
out, the newspaper has nei­ther
the time nor the space to
waste upon such a silly thing.
A six-inch square photograph of
a pretty girl's face is a lot of
space in a newspaper of this size
when you have to insure that vi­tal
sorority rush news gets two
pages and the names of students
a r r e s t e d for drug charges re­ceives
a front page slot.

Bookstores say i l l
By Linda Parham
Plainsman Academics Editor
ONE OF THE larger headaches of beginning each quar­ter
is buying and selling textbooks and supplies.
Unless a student decides he can squeeze by in a
course without the required text, he probably winds up
wondering why four books which cost him $31.50 will net
him only $10.50 at the end of the'quarter.
The three bookstores in Auburn-Anders, Johnston, and
Malone, and University Bookstore-all use the same gen­eral
rules in selling new and used , books. Competition
among the stores is based only on art, architecture, en­gineering,
and other supplies.
Along with new texts, the publishing company pro­vides
a suggested retail price list. The bookstores pur­chase
new texts at a 20 per cent discount and sell to the
students for the suggested price. A book which the store
buys for $8 will be sold for $10.
In buying used books, each bookstore will pay 50 per
cent of the retail price for a book which has had one own­er.
For the $10 book, the student will receive $5. The
store then sells the book to a second student for 75 per
cent of the suggested list price. In the case of the origi­nal
$10 text, tho second student will pay $7.50.
As the book gradually becomes more used the store will
buy it at a lower price and re-sell it at a similarly re­duced
rate. There is no rule governing the price of books
which have been used several times. As Bennett Sims,
manager of University Bookstore, said, "It just depends
on the general condition of the book."
USED BOOKS ARE GAMBLE
Harvey Johnston, of Johnston and Malone, explains that
for the bookstore, the entire process of dealing with used
books is a gamble. He said, "New books which are not
sold can be returned to the publisher according to three
conditions. First, the books must be returned within a
. specified- tisK^eeond, only, a, certain -percentage of... the ,
competition slight
could double its money and the Kentucky bookstore would
make the regular 25 per cent profit. If we can't unload the
discontinued books, we warehouse them for a couple of
years and then offer them at "A buck a foot sale," he
said.;
Students should exercise caution in selling
their texts to the stores
at the end of the quarter.
What about new books which have been ordered and are
not sold because the required text is subjected to a last
minute change?
"If we can obtain permission from the publisher," said
Bill Anders of Anders Bookstore, "we return them. Some
publishing companies will not accept them; others will
not refund the full price. If we can't return these books
and we can't sell them to some other bookstore, we eat
them," he added.
Each store must pay freight charges in returning unused
books to the publishing company.
BOOK PRICES NOT COMPETITIVE
According to Sims, the three bookstores in Auburn can­not
compete on book prices.
"Because the publishing companies give only a 20 per
cent discount on textbooks, the stores cannot go below
the suggested retail price," he said. This inability to
lower prices stems from overhead and operating costs
which prohibit all three stores. Competition among the
retailers prevents any of the stores from selling books
above the list price.
Competition among bookstores is based
only on art, architecture,
engineering and other supplies.
ordered books which are not sold may be returned. This
is called the quantity percentage. And last, the publish­ers
will take back only a certain dollar percentage of
unused books."
Dollar percentage can be explained by using an ex­ample
order of books worth $5,000. If the publisher has
decided that only 20 per cent of the dollar value of un­used
texts may be returned, the total value of books which
the store may send back from the $5,000 shipment is
$1,000.
When buying used textbooks from students, the store
has no way to recoup losses on unsold books. Every quar­ter
several books from each of the 1,500 courses offered
at Auburn remain unsold.
If the text is discontinued at the University, students
will still receive what the store managers call a "whole­sale
price" on the volume. These prices are found in
wholesale catalogues and are supposed to be the same at
all of Auburn's book stores. The stores in turn try to sell
books which are no longer needed at Auburn to other uni­versities.
Wholeasle prices offered on discontinued volumes are
25 per cent of the list price. The student would receive
only $2.50 for the book which may have cost him $10 new
or $7.50 used.
However, in dealing with these discontinued texts, the
stores really are taking a "fantastic gamble," according
to Johnston. "If we can sell these books to, say, the
University of Kentucky at the regular used book price
(which would be $5 on a $10 volume) Johnston and Malone
Competition for student trade really exists in art, ar­chitectural,

University Bookstore, which is operated as a service
to students, does not try to make as much profit on these
items as the other stores, according to Sims.
"They're in business to compete and make a profit. Of
course, we must make a fair marginal profit in order to
operate. But we can offer supplies at less than the sug­gested
retail prices which are ridiculous," he added.
How, then do the other two compete? Anders mentioned
that his si ore tries to offer better service and be a little
friendlier. Johnston said that his store tries to build con­fidence
with his customers by offering good quality mer­chandise.
EXERCISE CAUTION
A knowledgeable source suggests that students should
exercise caution in selling their texts to the store at the
end of the quarter. "I've seen some people at stores take
a stack of books the student brings in and pile them up,
run a finger down the books and name off a figure. Some­times
there will be a brand new book in with some used
ones and they'll give him a used price on it or they'll
give him wholesale prices on books which can be sold
next quarter to another student. But the student is so
eager to get away he just takes the lump sum instead of
getting the price on each book."

STUDENTS JAM BOOKSTORES AS QUARTER GETS UNDERWAY
(Photo by Roger Wentowski)
Service fraternity works to help students
THE MEMBERS OF Al­pha
Phi Omega operate on
an almost anachronistic
principle for the modern
business world: they work
to make money for others
and not themselves.
Their main source of in­come
is the book exchange,
established on the Auburn
campus in 1951 and now lo­cated
in the L Building
tunnel.
The exchange has changed
locations several times in
its 19 years here-first from
a temporary building to the
'basement - of- ^he -music
.-..JN^newJbwu m 1961. from
a room under the steps of
Langdon Hall to its present
site.
And if they could, the
APhiO's would like to move
again.
"We've petitioned for a
place with 1,800 square
feet, 800 more feet than we
have now," said Blair
Harlin, 4ACF. who manages
the exchange. "Right now
we don't have the book­shelf
space we need.'"
The location of the ex­change
has also hurt the
volume of business since
Haley Center opened. The
exchange is no longer in
the mainstream of student
pedestrian traffic, Harlin
explained.
They would like to move
into the Union Building,
which may be expanded,
in order to reach a larger
number of students.
Although his advertising
budget per quarter is only
about $15, Harlin tries to
inform as many students
as possible about the ex­change
through the use of
posters and arrows pointing
to the exchange.
"The boys are hard to
reach because they live
off campus but I can reach
the girls easily through the
campus mail," he said.
A lack of labor-manage­ment
problems is another
unusual characteristic of
the exchange operation.
"The pledges are re­quired
to learn about the
operation of the exchange
during their pledgeship.
The APhiO brothers share
the workload although they
are not required to keep
certain hours at the ex­change.
"I stay around here as
much as I can. With 40
brothers, somebody's here
pretty much all the time,"
Harlin said.
"Our biggest problem is
getting students to bring
their books in to sell be­cause
they want their money
immediately," he noted.
On the sale of a $10 book
used only once, Harlin
said he recommends the
student set a $7.50 resale
price.
APhiO collects 10 per
cent of the sale price, or
75 cents on $7.50, and
mails the student a check
for the balance ($6.75). Other

bookstores here pay 50 per
cent, or $5, for a $10 book.
On the second time around
for a used book, the APhi­O's
recommend the student
sell his book for 75 per
cent of whatever he paid
for it.
Although the student is
not required to sell his
book at the price recommend­ed
by APhiO, the exchange
is careful not to let a stu­dent
overprice his used
book.
When a student purchases
a book at the exchange, he
is given his choice of books
from the cheapest volume
to a more expensive one
which might be in better
condition.
"It happens a lot, during
the summer expecially, that
checks are returned to us
because students mpve a-round.
We publish the names
of all the people who have
unclaimed checks twice a
year in the Plainsman,"
he said.
If the checks aren't
claimed after a certain
period, the money goes into
the APhiO service account.
Each fall quarter, the
APhiO's contribute $450
to the Office of Student
Financial Aid for a scho­larship.
The remaining pro-fits
go into the service
fund, along with all excess
chapter funds.
In the past five years, the
APhiO's have made nu­merous
contributions to the
Auburn campus, according
to Harlin, with funds from
their service account.

CHARLES J. HIERS has
been appointed associate
professor and head of the
Art Department in the School

both traditional and
contemporary, used for wood­cut
printing in Japan. He
made several study trips to
villages to learn the local
craft industries such as
Mashiko pottery making and
Okamoto papermaking. He
also worked with some of
Japan's leading graphic de­signers
and architects.
At Auburn, Hiers has di­rected
visual design stu­dents
in numerous campus
and community design pro­jects,
among them a flag
for the City of Auburn, the
road signs for War Eagle
Highway and for Interstate
85, and covers for numerous
University publications.
He has served as in­terpreter
for Japanese visit­ors
to the campus and as
Rotary International foreign
student advisor.
Professionally, Hiers ieg
received numerous awar\,
for his work in exhibitions
throughout this country and
in Japan. He was the re­cipient
of the Harriet Murray
Memorial Award by the Bir­mingham
Museum of Art in
recognition of an outstanding
work of art for the year 1970.

DRAKE INFIRMARY isn't

director of student health,
was a student at Auburn,

located in a corner
room on the first floor of
Broun Hall.
Dr. Turk, an assistant
director of student health
for five years, said he and
Dr. Byron Knapp treat an
average of 60 to 70 students
a day.
"If we had the facilities,
we would probably be seeing
300 students or more a day,"
he said. "A lot of students
go to doctors in town be­cause
we can't see them
fast enough."
The University of Ala­bama
has nine physicians,
he noted.
A good insurance policy
is a must for students be­cause
of the University's
doctor shortage, Dr. Turk,58,
said.
After 11 p.m., students
injured in wrecks or with
cuts and lacerations are
to be treated by a group of
surgeons in Opelika. Finan­cial
settlement will be the
responsibility of the student,
and not the University.

Ticket
Since 1D34, when the Au-burn
Players were first aw­arded
a percentage of t h e
student activity fee, Auburn
students have attended de­partment
productions free of
charge. In July of 1970 the
Department of Theatre was
removed from the list of ac­tivities
funded by thestudent
activity fee. Nevertheless,
play productions will, for the
time being, remain free of
charge for currently enrolled
students.
The theatre ticket policy
for the 1970-71 season will
be that students are individ­ually
entitled to one ticket
to each production. Atten­dance
at more than one per­formance
of the same show
will require the purchase of
a ticket. Those students who
are enrolled in theatre cour­ses
and are required to at­tend
more than one perfor­mance
will be permitted to
attend special preview per­formances
which will be an­nounced
by their instructors.
Although student wives'
activity tickets apply to
athletic events only and
are hot accepted at the
theatre, student wives may
purchase tickets at the rate
for public school students
upon presentation of their
activity cards.
The prices for admission
are: general admission-$2
public school students-Si.
Auburn students may phone
the theatre box office and
reserve seats to be picked
up later. Any phone reserva­tions
must be picked up in
person at the theatre box
office and verified by the
presentation of a validated
announced
student ID card.
All tickets, general ad­mission
and student, must
be picked up at least 24
hours before the performance
for which the reservations
are made.
For each performance
which has been sold out, a
7oiiw' u.tit
limited number of patrons
will be listed on"standby,"
to be assigned tickets in the
order of their position on the
list as tickets are released.
Standby reservations may be
picked up at the box office
from noon to 5 p.m. the day
of the performance.

Couple". Torri was last
seen as Little Chap in
"Stop the World", and
Comeau is director of the
Auburn University Child­ren's
Theatre.

Backed by a homecoming crowd
Wildcat's cry could be loud roar
By Myers Hyche
Assistant Sports Editor
Sporting a two-game winning streak and a victory
over defending SEC champ, Tennessee, tne 12tn-ranked
Auburn Tigers travel to Lexington, Ky., for a game
that could pose more of a problem for the Tigers than
in the past years.

Senior guard suffered career ending injury against Tennessee
A U wins a real big game
but loses big Johnny Mac
It was a spectacular victory for the Tigers in Birming­ham's
Legion Field last Saturday with the Ai'burn crowd
being almost as pleased with the outcome as the last time
they poured out of the Legion Field gates last Nov. 28th.
The Tigers had won their second game of the 1970 sea­son,
avenged an embarassing 45-19 loss to Tennessee last
year on regional television, moved up to 12th place in the
nation, and hopefully on their way to the 1970 SEC Cham­pionship.
But the Big Blue left something very important behind,
probably one of the finest offensive guards in recent his­tory
to play for Coach Ralph "Snug" Jordan. Johnny Mc­Donald
had suffered a badly damaged tendon of the knee,
and left the field for the last time for Auburn.
"We always miss a starter who is injured and has to miss
the rest of the season," said Coach Jordan. "But it really
hurts to lose an All-Star such as Johnny Mac."

Depth lacking . . .
The Auburn offensive line has had a depth problem since
the beginning of fall practice, with untested, inexperienced
players comprising a major part of the back-up squads.
Losing the services of McDonald does not help the situa­tion
at all.
McDonald did a great job at guard," said Coach Jordan,
"especially in pass protection. He knows how to time his
blocks to really punish a guy."
In his two previous years and in the first two games of
this season, McDonald never allowed his man to get by
him and get to the quarterback.
The important thing at this point is that the Tigers have
another game to play this weekend in Lexington, andCoachi
Jordan has another major task to perform in only one week.
As far as replacing McDonald on the lineup there may
be some shifting going on to have adequate power to carry
on the job of pass protection that McDonald did so well.
"John Valentine did a good job in taking over for John­ny
Mac," said Coach Jordan. "He was graded well and
made some good plays against the Vol defensive line."
"We may move tackle Larry Hill to guard or possibly
Steve Smith. Both have had experience there and they may
help out along with Larry Thompson who has played guard
before also."

McDonald's.
As it happened, the unfortunate injury brought about the
beginning of another outstanding career with Micky Zofko

passes of 7 and 46 yards
and also connected on a two-point
conversion to bring
the Wildcats within 3 points
of the Rebels with only 5:16
left in the game, but the
Wildcats could not get any­thing
on the board after that.
Coming off a 36-23 shel­lacking
of 17th-ranked Ten­nessee,
the Auburn Tigers
will be working this week­end
without the services of
blocking great Johnny Mc­Donald.
McDonald, injured
in the Tennessee game, will
be out for the rest of the
season. McDonald under­went
knee surgery Monday.
The 12th-ranked Tigers
are a 10-point favorite to
beat the Wildcats even though
Coach John Ray has sworn
to get revenge for what he
considered unfair treatment
last year.
(See page 12, col. 1)
Team feels loss . . .
The team's morale is down a little due to the loss of
such a good ball player and all around "good guy", but
I believe the Kentucky Wildcats will feel the fury of a
raging eleven that will definitely miss the power of Johnny
McDonald, but will be hard to top as the less experienced'
players develop.
Despite the lack of Auburn fans, and even though the
Wildcats will be performing for a homecoming crowd, the
Big Blue should spoil the festivities by at least three touch-downs.
/IcDonald's injury is the kind of injury that is supposed
to be rare on the artificial turf which carpets Legion Field.
"I haven't changed my opinion of the artificial turf,"
said Jordan after the game. "I still balieve that they are
sadists who invented, developed, promoted and sell the
turf, and they should all have to play on the stuff."
Vol's Linebacker James Moody also suffered an injured
knee on the "safer grass" turf and will also be out for
the remainder of the year.
ser foes compared to LSU,
Alabama and the like, could
prove to be a team that no
one will take for granted
this year, especially for
their homecoming game.
Although the Wildcats are
only 1-2 for the season so
far, their victory came in a
game with the lOth-ranked
team in the nation at that
time. The Wildcats from the
"Bluegrass" took on the
Wildcats from Kansas State
and would not allow quarter­back
Lynn Dickey and his
teammates a single touch­down.
The only drive the State
forces could muster managed
to get them close enough
for a field goal which, as it
turned out, they were lucky
to get.
Even though the Wildcats
came out on the short end
of a close game in Jackson,
Miss., last weekend, they
had nothing to be ashamed
of as they fought back from
a 14-3 deficit to come with­in
3 points of No. 5 ranked
Ole Miss.
The type of game Ken­tucky
played was summed
up by Coach Johnny Vaught
of Ole Miss: "Kentucky
played better than we did.
I am most grateful for this
victory. Kentucky played a
helluva ball game."
Also in Jackson last
weekend a new hero in the
crowd Of Kentucky faces
was found-second-string
quarterback Bernie Scruggs.

Scruggs threw touchdown
No alibb wanted
Saturday's contest against Kentucky will not be the usual
dull series game that Auburn has grown accustomed to in re­cent
years with Kentucky coach John Ray very disturbed
after last year's 44-3 clash.
Ray requested that there be no alibis after Saturday's
game, his team will have none, and he expects none from
Auburn. What does this man have in mind?
From the other coach
Kentucky's John Ray
Ed. Note: The following comments by Kentucky football
coach John Ray are taken from a telephone conversation
in which he discussed the Kentucky and Aubum teams
with members of the Plainsman sports staff.
"Auburn has a real fine team, I believe that they have
one of the better teams in the country. Pat Sullivan is a
very good quarterback. He is a combination of the two
quarterbacks we have faced in our two games previous to
this one.
"Lynn Dickey of Kansas State was a drop-back type of
passer while Archie Manning was more of a sprint-out
man. Sullivan is a little bit of both and this poses a double
threat to our defense.
"Terry Beasley and Carlos Alvarez must have been cut
from the same mold and I feel that they are two of the best
receivers in the nation.
"Concerning our own team, we have a lot of sophomores
who will improve and develop into a real fine ball team as
the year progresses.
"We made a good showing against Ole Miss, but we didn't
win the game and that is what counts. I thought our quarter­backs
looked rather good against the Ole Miss defense,
we don't have great quarterbacks like Sullivan or Manning,
we have good competitors though. One day one might have
a hot hand, and the next day the other might.
"In general, I think it will be a pretty good game and
we're looking forward to this Saturday's game."

The Store That Guarantees Satisfaction
Tigers overcome errors for
revenge of '69 loss to Vols
Friday, October 2, 1970 n- THE AUBURN PIJMNMUN
In a comedy of errors last
Saturday at 'Birmingham's
Legion Field, the Auburn
Tigers proved to be the bet­ter
team as they got revenge
on the Tennessee Volun­teers,
36-23.
With both teams being
plagued by turnovers, it was
a question of which team
could absorb the most blun­ders
in a game which saw a
total of 14 turnovers, not
counting punts.
The Pat Sullivan-Terry
b e a s l e y combination ac­counted
for one particular
big play that covered 62
yards for the Tiger's first
score and set the pace for an
astounding first half.
Associated Press thought
Beasley's efforts worthy
enough to merit Linaman of
the Week after Saturday's
dual.
Coach Ralph "Shug" Jor­dan
commented on Beasley
by saying, "Terry is cer­tainly
deserving of the
honor. He came up with the
big play when we were be­hind
and gave us the momen­tum
to get ahead and stay
ahead."
Sullivan, who was UPI's
Back of the Week after the
Southern Mississippi game,
increased his total offense
to 582 yards in 65 carries.
The second leading ground
gainer in the nation, Sullivan
is topped only by Jim Plunk-ett
of Stanford, who has com­piled
907 yards in 120 tries.
Plunkett's yardage is the
result of three games while
Sullivan's were gained in
only two outings.
"Any time you have an
individual leading high in
national ratings as Sulli­van
is in rushing," said
Coach Jordan, "it reflects
on the overall calliber and
ability of the whole team.
it shows an all-out effort
of everyone concerned."
. Trailing 10-0 at the end
of the first quarter, the Ti-
, gers started their trek toward
victory with a 62-yard scor­ing
strike to split end Ter­ry
Beasley. Auburn surged
ahead later in the second
quarter on a 3-yard plunge
by fullback Wallace Clark
(Set up by a 40-yard Sulli­van-
Alvin Bresler pass).
By halftime the Tigers
had mustered 9 more points
on a 52-yard pass intercep­tion
return by All-America
Larry Wiliingham and a safe­ty
by defensive end Scotty
Elam. Auburn led at half-time
23-10.
Midway into the third
quarter, Jimmy Speigner fell
on a Wallace Clark fumble
in the end zone for a touch­down.
This fumble was the
only one Auburn managed to
recover, and it came at a
very opportune time, giving
the Tigers a 29-10 lead.
As the fourth quarter
opened, Tennessee came on
with a charge that almost
brought victory back to the
side of the "Big Orange."
With two quick touchdowns
the Vols came within six
points of the Tigers only to
see victory slip away as
they drew four blanks on
their own 15-yard line and
Tommy Traylor took the ball
over on a 10-yard run in the
final minute of play. The
final score was 36-23 as the
Plainsmen avenged the 45-19
loss to the Vols last year.
Leading rusher and lead­ing
passer turned out to be
the same man as Pat Sulli­van
had one of his usually
tremendous days rushing for
70 yards on seven tries and
passing for 268 yards on 17
completions in 31 attempts.
Sullivan's 338 yards total
offense broke his record of
245 yards accumulated last
year in the Alabama game.
Leading the receivers
was Terry Beasley with 116
yards on 5 receptions and
one touchdown.

DESERVED BREAK
70 yards rushing
By Barry Kyrklund
With the excitement of
llast weekend's football
^victory still fresh in their
minds, the new 1970-71 in­tramural
football and vol­leyball
teams began this
week in earnest. Although
the cheers weren't as loud
nor the thrills as exciting,
the spirit was still ever
.present as football fever
filled the air.
The fraternities began
the football season and the
plight for the all-sports
trophy Tuesday with the
"thundering herd" of PGD,
last years football cham­pions
bowing to LCA in a
down to the wire finish.
Going into the sudden death
battle the score was dead­locked
0 to 0 and remained
that way to the finish.
However, in intramurals
overtime, each team is
allowed four plays with the
team that makes the most
yardage declared the win­ner.
The LCA drove deep
into FIJI territory on their
four downs and held the
"herd" despite four long,
exciting passes.
Starting the action off
last Monday were the in­dependent
leagues consist­ing
of five leagues with
five teams in each league.
In League 1 we have the
Wild Bunch, Saints, NROTC,
Dayhouse Packers and
Raiders. League 2, Air
Force, University Apt.,
Chemical Eng., Brads,
MMF's. League 3, F. A&G,
B, D, H&I, J&I. League
4: K. L&M, M, P, R, U. And
finally League 5, consisting
of West Minister, Wesley,
BSU. APO, and AVA.
The Greek's action which
started Tuesday sported
four leagues consisting of
seven teams each. League
1 is made of PGD, DSP,
SAE, SP, LCA, DU. League
2: ATO. PDT, KA, PKA,
OTS, AEP. League 3:
SN, SGR, PKP, DC, TC,
TZ, CP, And League 4
composed of PKT, ETP,
DTD, SPE, KS, AP, and
TKE. I'm sorry to report
that at the time of printing
scores were unavailable
but a complete listing will
be in next weeks issue.
Besides football, the
volleyball season got off
to a fine start Monday night
at 7 p.m. There are 4 leagues
this year with 7 teams in
each league.
In League 1 there are 6
teams, OTS, PGD, SAE,
TZ, TKE, and AEB. League
2: PKT, KA, DTD, TC,
ATO. LCA. DU. League
3: SN, PDT, AGR, PA,
KS, PKA, SP. In League
4: PTB, DSP, PKP. SPE.
DC, SC, and CP.
The results oi Monday
nights action is as follows:
The winners are: OTS over
PGD, SAE over AEP, TZ
over TKE, BTP over SC.
SN over PKA, KS over
PDT, AP over AGR, LCA
over PKT, KA over ATO,
TC over DTD, DC over
DSP, and finally PKP over
SPE.
It should be noted that
officials are still badly
needed. If anyone is interest­ed,
please contact the Stu­dent
Activities Building
right away.
In conclusion, we would
like to wish all the intra­mural
teams best of luck and
also to the fine Auburn Ti­gers
who help inspire each
and every team. May each
team be a winner.

In addition to earning

Jordan is convinced Neel is
going to keep on getting
better.
"Rover is a hard position

spot in the cellar with a 5-5 effort.
This week's guest will be Pres. Harry M. Philpott.
In one other outing with the fearless fortune tellers
two years ago, President Philpott posted an 8-2 rec­ord,
the best for that week.
The Muhlenberg Mules, sometimes known as the
Allentown Asses, have launched their drive for star­dom
with a devastating 16-6 trouncing of the hapless
John Hopkins Interns. This week they place their one
game winning streak on the line as they face the Hav­erford
Fords in a duel to the death in Haverford, Pa.
Muhlenberg has won the past two games but reports
have it that the Fords are really reved up and waiting
for the Allentown, Pa., Mules.
This week's clue to the identityof the "Has Been"
is a poem written by Joe Cook:
The "Has Been" is a friendly man
He is a great big Auburn fan
A sportsman true with pen in hand
Explore these clues now if you can.
Freshman opener Monday
Every Auburn fan in the
Legion Field seats was ec­static
when Pat Sullivan
pulled off a beautiful 33-
yard quarterback sneak
against Tennessee in last
week's game, but only a
few noticed why.
Sullivan faked a hand-off
to halfback Tommy Lowry,
with Lowry looking so
authenic as a ball carrier
that three Vol defenders
chose to tackle him instead.
In the final quarter of the
game, quarterback Tommy
Traylor killed the hopes of
the scrapping Vols with a
12-yard scoring run, which
was made possible by a
key Lowry block.
Lowry entered the game
for the first time with Au­burn
trailing in the first
quarter and promptly caught
a flare pass for a first down
that started the second Ti­ger
touchdown drive.
Lowry carried six times
for 15 yards and caught
two passes for 22 more, but
his faking and pass block­ing
graded superior and he
will get his first start
against the Wildcats.
"We spend a lot of time
grading films and it would
be lost if we didn't find
out who was playing best
and then start them. Tom­my
did the best job against
Tennessee and he shall be
rewarded," says Head Coach
Ralph "Shug" Jordan.
Also starting on offense
for the first time will be
John Valentine at right
guard in place of injured
Johnny McDonald, who is
out for the season follow­ing
Monday knee surgery.
Valentine is a two-year
letterman who played two
and a half quarters after
after McDonald got hurt
against the Vols last Satur­day.
Wingback Dick Schmalz
started his first game last
week against the Vols and
played well. He again came
up with a big clutch catch unit. Sophomore rover Mike

score. time and played anexcep-

Baby Tigers no longer blocking dummies
With the season opener
coming up Monday the Au­burn
Baby Tigers are final­ly
through posing as op­posing
offenses and de­fenses
for the varsity. Open­ing
with the Florida fresh­men
on Monday, October 5
the frosh field a team that
is in Coach Tom Jones
words "very shallow."
Due to injuries and lack
of tryouts the Baby Tigers
travel to Gainsville with a
much smaller team than
last season. This season
finds only 18 non scholar­ship
players fighting for
starting positions compared
to 38 who were on the team
at the end of the season
last year for the freshmen.
Offensive lineup
There will be three non-scholarship
starters on the
first team offense and de­fense.
Offensive starters on
tryout include left guard
Johnny Sumner and tailback
Kentucky
(Continued from page 10)
The fact that this is Ken­tucky's
homecoming doesn't
make the Tigers' job any
easier.
But with the passing of
Pat Sullivan, receiving of
Terry Beasley and running
of Mickey Zofko and Wallace
Clark, the Tigers are a
threat to make the big play-at
any moment. Coming up
with the big play Saturday
was the thing that pulled
the Tigers through the rash
of errors that plagued them.
Turning in one of the big­gest
plays, the one respon­sible
for the Auburn come­back,
was quarterback Pat
Sullivan. Sully started the
'amazing comeback on a 62-
yard scoring strike to split-end
Terry Beasley. But the
straw that really broke the
camel's back was Larry Wil-lingham's
52-yard pass in­terception
return for a TD.
Auburn's ability to make
the big play may make the
difference in a contest that
shows signs of being one of
the biggest grudge matches
in the past few seasons.
Only time will tell.
