              Horizons V
Variety of speakers coming
By Edith Hovater
News Editor
Dan Rather, CBS White House
correspondent, is one of the speakers
tentatively scheduled for the 1974-1975
Horizons program, according to Bert
Young, Horizons V director. Rather
has just returned from touring Russia
with President Nixon and is tenta­tively
scheduled to speak on November
19.
Young said this year's program will
have more of a humanistic approach
than last year. "We are trying to get
more people that are more into world
involvement and we are striving for
more intellectual content than for
entertainment," he said.
Young and John Wiley, president of
Student Government Association
(SGA), have just returned from Wash­ington,
New York and Boston, where
they spent several days working
through agencies to contact speakers.
The University has budgeted $19,000
for Horizons speakers this year, accord­ing
to Young.
Wiley said their biggost problem con­tacting
speakers was in Washington
because so many of the senators and
congressmen are running for re-elec­tion.
Young said they were going to try
to get Senator Lowel Weicker, R-CT,
one of the members of the Senate Select
Committee on the Watergate Break-in,
and Senator Henry Jackson, D-WA,
trying to get the Democratic nomina­tion
for president, after the November
elections.
Young said that in trying to get the
Senators they would not work through
an agency but go straight to their
offices and talk with them.
Alvin Toffler, the author of "Future
Shock," is tentatively scheduled to be
the first speaker of the '74-'75 Horizons
program on Oct. 15, Young said.
• E. B. H. (Chip) Monck, a rock and roll
producer who worked with the Rolling
Stones' tour is scheduled for Nov. 7. He
also has a syndicated television show
called "Speak-easy," which is a type of
rock anatoll Dick Cavettshow, Young
said. _ '•. _
Vincent Price is scheduled! for Feb.
16. Young added.that this will be the
first time a Horizons speaker has
spoken a f fi Sunday.
Anthony Burgess, who wrote "Clock­work
Orange," is scheduled to speak on
a date between March 6-13, 1975,
according to Young.
Possibly in April, Jeremiah Collins
will be here and perform what Young
THE AUBURN PLUNSM&N Vol. 80S No. 5 Auburn University Auburn AI 36830 Thurs., July 25,1974 16 pages
calls a "super program". Collins is an
actor who is a look-alike of John F.
Kennedy and has put together an act
depicting happenings of J.F.K. as-president.
Playboy calls it "as close to
reality as a reinactment."
James. J. Kilpatrick, a Washington
columnist who has a syndicated
column in the Atlanta Constitution,
and can be seen on thePpini-Counter
pOint portion of 60 MinuteSja CBS tele­vision
program. He is scheduled for
sometime in May.
One of the speakers agencies is still
working on getting Rollo May, an
author and psychologist, for February
20,1975. May has written such books as
"Man's Search for Himself and "The
Meaning of Anxiety."
There is also a possibility of getting
Peter Bogdonavich, the director of
"Paper Moon" and other films, Young
said.
Moshe Dayan, defense minister of
Israel, will be making a tour of Ameri­can
and we may have a shot at getting
him sometime in January, he said. He
would be the keynote speaker for the
model United Nations, according to
Young. •
Visitation survey
results uncertain
Seventy-five per cent of the 3084
questionnaires concerning male visi­tation
have been received, according to
H. Floyd Vallery, assistant to the Presi­dent.
An informed source has said that
seventy-five per cent of those that did
reply are not in favor of male visita­tion.
When Vallery was asked how the re­plies
were running so far he refused to
comment on the matter. He said, "It
would not be fair to say until we get the
whole thing in. We keep getting more
replies every day and we can't give out
final percentages because they're still
changing."
Vallery said that the replies were
supposed to have been back by July 15
but that they would continue to tally
the results through this week. Vallery
said that he wanted to include as many
returned questionnaires as possible so
that the unanswering group could not
effect the outcome. He added that when
all the replies are in that he wanted a
group to come in and study them to find
out what the parents are really saying.
He said that all sides of the issue will be
looked at concerning comments of the
parents and replys in relation to
parents of freshmen, sophomores,
juniors, and seniors.
Glenda Earwood, president of
Associated Women Students, AWS
added that she is not yet ready to com­ment
on the results of the survey.
Earwood said that representatives of
AWS, Vallery, Pres. Harry M. Phil-pott,
DeanCatherineCater, Mrs. Gerald
Leischuck, who is drawing up a chart of
the different comments, and Gerald
Leischuck, director of institutional
analysis, will meet Friday to try and
categorize the different groups, of re­plys.
According to Vallery, the final re­sults
should be out sometimes next
week but no matter what results come
from the survey there will be no definite
decision until the Board of Trustees
meets in August.
Concerning the effects the HE$
guidelines will have on visitation
Vallery said that the effects of the
finalized,guidelines on Auburn would
not be known until sometime in Octo­ber.
M01 watt increase needs
heal stations' consent
Lee Webb, station manager of
WEGL-FM, the campus radio station,
has been informed by Pres. Harry M.
Philpott that written consent from all
local radio station managers must be
obtained before the proposed power
increase request will be presented to the
Board of Trustees.
The station, currently operating on
10 watts, is unable to reach approxi­mately
35 per cent of the students.. An
increase to the proposed 240 watts
would give WEGL a broadcasting
radius of 10 miles, according to Webb.
A similar proposal was approved by
the Student Senate and the University
Communications Board in 1972, but
was halted by Philpott.
"There was some communication to
some of the Trustees when the pro­posal
came,up in 1972 by local broad
casters," Philpott said. "Although
there hasn't been a formal poll taken, I
know that there is opposition."
Philpott said he felt that any request
put before the trustees would be

Prongay trial set for November
By Gordon Cone
Managing Editor
The reinstatement hearing
for former student Robert
Prongay, who was arrested on
May 14 on charges of possess­ing
pornographic materials
and untaxed liquor, and who
was expelled from the Univer­sity,
is scheduled for the U. S.
District Court to be held from
Nov. 4 to Nov. 15, in Opelika. A
spokesman for Judge Robert
Varner told The Plainsman
that the case will probably be
heard in the second week of
the session, but no definite
date is known at this time.
Prongay, who had his case
dropped in local court for a
lack of sufficient evidence, was
subsequently expelled by Pres.
Harry M. m Philpott on the
recommendation of the Disci­pline
Committee.
At the time of his arrest,

public relations director for the
USS Alabama Battleship.
Commission.
Examiners said about the
employment of Fuller, "The
.monetary value of the services
rendered or not rendered can­not
be determined by your
examiner and consequently no
chargeback is made in this re­port."
Christian served as
publicity director from June
1973 until this March with an
annual salary of $8,000. She
spent most of that time as a
full-time student at Auburn.
For three months last sum­mer,
Christian had an office
in the State Highway Depart­ment
Building, drove a state
car and reportedly assisted the
Bureau of Publicity and
Information, according to the
public examiners.
In September, she moved out
of her office and enrolled as a
full-time student here. She was
still receiving paychecks from
the commission.
The commission contended
that they had expected Chris­tian
to serve full-time promot­ing
the battleship USS Ala­bama,
writing press releases
and performing other public
relations duties.
Christian argued that her
understanding of the job was
different. She claims to have
made numerous public appear­ances
in behalf of the commis­sion,
and that she was never
contacted and told of metre
specific duties.
Records examined "do not
reveal any services per­formed"
by Christian, the re­port
said. But there is no way
to disprove the statements to
the contrary made by Chris­tian.
The committee in its report
concluded that, "After taking
sworn statements from several
commission employes, it was
determined that:
"The employe had occupied
an office in the Highway
Department Building in Mont­gomery
on a full-time basis
during July, August, and early
September; that some services
had been rendered by her dur­ing
this period and later con­sisting
primarily of personal
appearances advertising the
battleship; and that there was
a considerable lack of
communications and under­standing
between the employe
and her supervisor as to the
duties of the publicity direc­tor."
Partners of America
fosters understanding
By Sherri Hughes
Assistant News Editor
The city of Auburn is reach
ing out her hand this yearto
her sister city Chichieaste-nango,
Guatemala, through
the Partners of America pro­gram.
The program is an organiza­tion
committed to fostering a
closer understanding between
the people of the United States
and Latin America through
self-help projects.
Auburn first became involv­ed
this year when the partner-city
program, an outgrowth of
state partnerships, .was
established.
Jordan B. Phillips, associate
professor of foreign languages,
is heading the program in
Auburn. He has plans for a
group of people from the city of
Auburn to travel to
Chichicastenango this fall.
The purpose of the trip is,
according to Phillips, "to get
Auburn associated with
Chichicastenango. We just
want to get Auburn people
there and let th«m meet the
people."
This visit will officially
establish the relationship,
begin friendships and pro­jects.
All projects are based on a
sharingof skills and on mutual
self-help. To build a school for
example, one partner
committee contributes land
and labor, and the other pro­vides
the equipment or funds.
The state partnership pro­gram
was organized in the
mid-1960's. There are now
communities in 42 states of the
United States and in all Latin
American countries except
Argentina. Alabama's people-to-
people partnership with
Guatemala is regarded as one
of the most successful of the 42
committees.

March of
Dimes
eight films, two dozen still
photos, and a large quantity of
beer and wine were seized. It
was alleged at that time that
Prongay was producing some
of the films and photos in his
room. Three other students
were given temporary suspen­sions
at the time that Prongay
was expelled.
Police said that Prongay's
room had been converted into
a make-shift studio which
contained a large water bed
with a bunk bed above it, and a.
two-way mirror had been
installed in the bunk beds to
facilitate filming of activity on
the waterbed below.
Kevin Prongay, who is serv­ing
as his brother's attorney,
said that he felt that the
Auburn authorities "were used
as a tool" by the University,
and that his brother's constitu­tional
rights were possibly
violated by the police and the
University.
"My brother feels that he
has certain rights and that
President Philpott has been
flagrant . in the violation of
those rights," Prongay said,
"and he also wants to see that
his rights to possess what he
wishes in the privacy of his
own room are protected."
Prongay said that he plans
to base his case on the argu­ment
that a person may
possess any materials, as long
as he displays them in the pri­vacy
of his residence, and they
are purchased legally.
Prongay went on to say that
he was surprised that his
brother was expelled before his
trial, and said that "the deck
was stacked against my
brother."
"After my arrival in Auburn,
I met with Dr. Philpott. He told
me that the decision to expel
Bob was final, and I then
informed him that I would file
suit. He seemed to invite me to
do that, so the suit was filed
that afternoon."
Prongay further stated that
if the court upheld the action of
theUniversity there would be a
damage suit filed.
"The statutes in Auburn
seem broad to me, and frankly,
very vague concerning a case
like this."

Bamo gets more women's athletic funds than Auburn
By Sherri Hughes
Assistant News Editor
The University of Alabama
has allocated $75,000 to fund
six women's intercollegiate
teams for the upcoming aca­demic
year, according to Fred
Glaze, director of University
Relations at Alabama. This is
three times the amount
allocated to the women's
athletic program at Auburn.
The new budget is a $62,000
increase over last year's in
anticipation of federal regula­tions,
said Paul Skidmore, uni­versity
counsel, in an article
published in "The Crim-son:
White" (C-W), the student
newspaper at Alabama.
According to an editorial in
the C-W, the university was
"undoubtedly forced by the
new HEW (Department of
Health, Education and Wel­fare)
guidelines to make the
changes."
"Frankly, I don't know what
they're going to tell us to do,"
said Pres. Harry M. Philpott.
The University has not taken
any action concerning the
guidelines.
The Alabama fund will
cover 21 half tuition scholar­ships,
none of which have been
filled, Glaze said. Coaches are
presently searching for
qualified women, he said.
Auburn coaches are search­ing
for women to fill teams, but
the university is not offering
scholarships specifically for
women, according to Athletic
Director Lee Hayley. Auburn
women have to compete with
men for their scholarships, he
said.
The additional funding at
Alabama will make it possible
to hire a full time director for
women's sports and another
full time coach, according to
Gf&ze. They will be responsible
for three teams. Coaches for
the remaining three teams are
all ready on campus, Glaze
said.
Women's coaches at Auburn
work "completely on their own
time," said Marylou Morgan,
women's golf coach. "We get
one hour credit on our teach­ing
load," she said.
Another change at Ala­bama
is the transfer of
women's sports from the
fairs, according to the'. C-W
Health, Physical Education
and Recreation (HPER)
Department to the Student Af-story.
Auburn is doing the oppo­site,
Morgan said. Previously
funded by student activities
fees, the program will be
financed from the general fund
placing it under the school of
education, Morgan said.
65% receive BA in
Freshman enrollment
A study of three Auburn Uni­versity
entering freshman
classes lias determined that
approximately 6f> per cent of
these students eventually re­ceived
the baccalaureate de­gree
from Auburn.
The study of the li>63, 1966
and 1969 entering classes,
conducted by Auburn's Office
of Institutional Analysis,
states that this is a rate higher
than studies indicate the stu­dent
graduation rate to be at
other institutions.
Our studies show that stu­dent
retention and graduation
rates at Auburn are substan­tially
higher than national
percentages where we find
that only slightly more than r>0
per cent of entering classes
graduate- from the institution
of original entrance," said Dr.
Genald S. Leischuck, director
of Institutional Analysis..
As of the I97.'5 fall quarter, of
65.5 per cent, of the 1,590 fresh­men
entering' the university
in IflOohad received the baccal­aureate
degree. Additionally,
seven students from the class
were still enrolled as under­graduates
at that time and
would probably be awarded
the baccalaureate.
Following entry at Auburn,
6;S.7 per cent of the 1,897 mem­ber
freshman class of I960 had
been awarded baccalaureate
degrees by fall 197:!. Fifty stu­dents
from that class were also
enrolled as undergraduates,
bringing the number
graduated or enrolled to 1,59.
The 1969 entering freshman
class, after four years at
Auburn, had 785 members, of
37.2 per cent of 2,112 students,,
receive baccalaureate degrees
by fall |97:i. This percentage is
comparatively higher than
both the 196.5 and 1966 gradua­tion
percentages after four
years at Auburn, Dr. Leis-chuck
says. Additionally; 488
members of the class were still
enrolled at the university,
bringing the total number
graduated or enrolled to 1,273,
or 60.:$ per cent.
The study indicates that stu­dents
are earning the first
degree in the traditional four-year
period in increasing pro­portions.

live let live;
War settles
no problems
The world in which we live is a hos­tile
one. It appears that it will always
be that way. Even with the so-called
peace keeping mission and "close asso­ciation
of nations" in the United Na­tions,
peoples and countries cannot
learn to live together.
The rioting that erupted recently on
Cyprus makes it crystal clear that no
matter how long people live in close
association with each other they can't
seem to accept each other as their
neighbor or their equal.
It has been going on for centuries and
most likely it will be this way for cen­turies
to come.
Jonathan Swift said, "War! that
made game the world so loves to play."
He was so right. What is it that men see
in war?
"War is the business of barbarians,"
according to Napoleon.
Are all men barbarians? If we were to
let history speak, it would probably tell
us that we are doomed to die the way we
live as warriors.
Thomas Jefferson said this about
war. "War is an instrument entirely
inefficient toward redressing wrong;
and multiplies, instead of indemnify­ing
losses."
"When people speak to you about a pre­ventive
war, you tell them to go and
fight it. After my experience, I have
come to hate war. War settles nothing."
What ever happened to the saying
"Live and let live"? It seems to have
evolved into the title of a James Bond
book, "Live and Let Die."
If people want to fight, let them fight.
Pretty soon they will run out of people
to fight or come to their own argments.
There should not be any outside help in
waging the war or trying to settle other
people's problems.
"Live and let live."
'Special services'
Students paying more for less
Certain services previously provided
free of charge by the Drake Student
Health Center have been given a price
tag recently. The reason for the
charges, according to Dr. J. Garth
Jarvis, director of the Health Center, is
that they are special services and do
not fall within the mission of the
Health Cente'r.
Some special treatment cases men­tioned
by Dr. Jarvis are services requir­ed
by people who suffer from rheu­matic
fever, allergies, diabetes and stu­dents
who need dermatological treat­ments.
It is quite understandable that the
Health Center could and should not
provide specialized treatments. But it is
seemingly unreasbnable that there
would be a charge for simple services
that are needed and requested by stu­dents.
Here are a couple of examples A stu­dent
is required by his home doctor to
take allergy shots on a regular basis.
He buys the necessary medicine and
the Health Center agrees to store it.
When he needs an injection, the center
charges him for it.

Here are a couple of examples. A stu­dent
is required by his home doctor to
take allergy shots on a regular basis.
He buys the necessary medicine and
the Health Center agrees to store it.
When he needs an injection, the center
charges him for it. What is the money
he is paying through his student health
fees being used for if not to meet his
medical needs?
When a doctor in the Health Center
prescribes the use of an "Ace" band­age,
a student must purchase it or
maybe go without it. What are his fees
being used for?
It does not appear that student fees
are being used to provide the necessary
medical treatment students need while
they are enrolled at Auburn.
A special service as defined by Dr.
Jarvis is anything that is a substitu­tion
for home medical service. "The
Health Center is not the doctor away
from home," he said. The responsibi­lity
of the Health Center and the only
services provided by it are stated in the
mission of the medical facility.
"The mission of the Drake Student
Health Center is to provide initial
diagnostic services for illnesses and in­juries
occurring while the student is
enrolled on the Auburn University
campus and to provide immediate and
follow-up treatment for most short-term
illnesses. The service supple­ments
the students' regular medical
program which should take care of
major medical illnesses, surgery,
obstetric, psychiatric care, dental care
and regular and-or periodic physical
examinations. The Health Center is
not organized to function for complete
medical care. The Health Center pro­vides
hospitalization and office
diagnosis and therapy within these
parameters."
One of the services the Health Cen­ter
provides is to the football team. "A
required service of the University" is
that the football team doctor come from
the Health Center, Dr. Jarvis said. It
has been a tradition for the director to
be the team physician, he said.
Is this required service to the foot­ball
team a special service?
Dr. Jarvis indicated that the athletic
department does not provide funds for
this service. Lee Hayley, athletic direc­tor,
said the personal expenses
encountered by the team doctor on
away games are paid for by the athletic
department.
Each fall every football player must
be given a complete physical examina­tion
before practice begins. The Health
Center provides the materials and in
some cases the facilities for this ser­vice,
according to Dr. Jarvis. Is this a
special service? It is not stated in the
mission of the Health Center.
It does not appear that the Health
Center is placing proper importance on
medical care for students. Currently
students are paying $7.25 a quarter for
health services. In the fall that figure
will jump to $15. They are being
charged for so called "special services"
that were previously free. They are pay­ing
more and receiving less.
A total of $1,000,000 has been pro­mised
to the Health Center for addi­tional
facilities and services. The only
additional services that will be made
available to students is additional-doc­tors
if available, according to Dr. Jar­vis.
The Health Center should provide
the medical needs of Auburn students
short of specialized treatment that is
not normally provided by a general
practioner. The Health Center should
be the doctor away from home to the
students who wish to use the services
and facilities.'
If it is good enough for Auburn's foot­ball
team it is good enough for all stu­dents.
The reason for the charges for
"special services" does not hold water
as well as a bottomless glass.
Reader's Opinion page 5 Thur s . , July 25,1974 THE AUBURN PUlNSMAN
"Nixon is guilty", Ogburn discusses actions
I am writing in regard to the book
reviewed by Greg Lisby, a former
managing editor of The Plainsman.
My philosophy has previously been
written and is my interpretation of and
application to everyday life. It reads:
'Go amid the haste and noise
remembering that what peace there is
in silence. Without surrender, be on
good terms with all persons, but speak
your truth quietly and clearly."
In responding to the book review, I'm
going to give you my truth.
My honest opinion is "Nixon is
Guilty." But there is a law in this
country that says you are innocent
until proven otherwise. I'm sure all of
us value that law.
,. ?w>mp-
IQ/ct&feriltem—
My main concern is for you to see
Nixon as a President'. He has opened
doors to other countries and doors to
ourselves, for that matter.
He has brought prisoners of war
home, which was quite an issue when
he was elected. Plus, he has been cru­sading
for world peace and in this I
have learned many things.
One is that peace starts at home.
Let's be honest, are you and I honest
each minute of the day? Well, I'm not
and my excuse is that I'm human.
Pretty bad excuse.
Let's be honest about Nixon. He had
to play games to get the presidency. He
wasn't independtly wealthy. I can't
judge a man when I am forced to play
games myself.
These games are the politics of life.
You and I face them each day. You just
have to weigh the situation and come to
your conclusions.
Did you ever think Nixon, if he is
guilty, did these things so he could keep
the presidency because he was sincere
in his platform and thought it was the
only way he could make it a better
world!?
There are lots of games involved in
world peace or lots of dealings. One is
the deal of the nuclear reactor in Egypt.
That was a good deal for us and
Eygpt benefits in a way that is really
good. They'll be able to do many good
things with the reactor. Hopefully they
will be able to help their neighbors.
I realize this costs us money, but I'll
^ClRCi£UPTHEW60lfe.'"H£SAyS...WELL JuSTHOWTltHBi^ltftVlAKE A apo^lVITHOME W'A^... ?
give my money, clothes, etc., to get
people in our country and other coun­tries
to realize that violence isn't the
way, and that working or dealing in
harmony is the way. Games of love are
better than games of war.
As for our government structure, I
believe if Nixon, or any president for
that matter, is impeached, it would hurt
our government and we could not have
any good leaders. They would be afraid
to turn around.
We have to be trusting, but cautious.
This is where I see the good in "Water­gate."
It has made us think about our
laws and interpretations of them. They
can be interpreted in many different
ways.
If President Nixon is impeached, I
hope he is left to finish his term,
because I can see a lot of good that he
has done for our country and the world.
If he is guilty of a crime, he should be
punished with a fine, because being
publicly ostracized is the worst punish­ment
you can get. Think about your­self
when friends were down on you for
doing something wrong.
In view of everything I would like to
close with a poem.
Comfort one another
For the way is often dreary,
And the feet are often weary,
And the heart is very sad.
There is a heavy burden bear-'
ing,
When it seems that none are
caring,
And we half forget that ever we
were glad.
Comfort one another
With handclasp close and ten­der,
With sweetness love can
render,
And the looks of friendly eyes.
Do not wait with grace
unspoken,
While life's daily bread is
broken —
Gentle speech is oft like manna
from the skies.

Carpool relies on message tree
By Carol Williams
Plainsman Staff Writer
A figure exited Haley Center
along the Thach Avenue side­walk.
Across from the Aufiurn
Union, he stepped over the
chain to a large oak tree.
Briefly he scribbled a note, and
attached it to the tree by means
of a handy clip. Mission ful­filled,
he returned to Haley.
Sounds like a scene from a B
grade romance or spy non-thriller,
doesn't it? Actually,
this "message tree" is a practi­cal
means of communication
for a highly organized carpool
from Phenix City. Rather than
professing undying love or
stating the location of stolen
information, messages usually
follow the pattern "Joe, I went
home at two, Mary."
According to Scott Johnson,
4AM, the clip was added at the
beginning of spring quarter.
Johnson, who worked at the
Fieldcrest Mill, observed the
efficient use of clips for mes­sages
at the mill. Before long
he borrowed the idea and a
clip, for use by the carpool.
Before the clip, Johnson
said, some riders stuck notes
on limbs to inform drivers of
an added passenger, or of a
regular rider who would be
late. But the message tree has
only been used recently, in
comparison to the carpool's
duration.
Fraternities improve
composite averages
A total of 23 out of 27
fraternities improved their
composite grade point aver­ages
this spring quarter over
the winter quarter averages.
There were 17 groups which
achieved a 1.50 or better grade
Red Cross
on campus
The Auburn Summer Blood
Drive will be Tuesday in the
Haley Center Lounge from 12
to 6 p.m. It is being sponsored
by Kappa Psi Pharmaceutical
Fraternity and the Student
Government Association
(SGA).
The goal of the blood drive is
635 pints, according to James
McMillin, blood drive chair­man.
He said this is the daily
amount needed for the Red
Cross to reach their yearly
goal of 152,391 pints for the
state.
composite average.
Farmhouse fraternity mem­bers
achieved the highest over­all
average among the social
fraternities and Alpha Psi had
the highest among all the
fraternities. The fraternity
which made the most improve­ment
over winter quarter, 1974
was Delta Sigma Phi.
A trophy awarded jointly by
the interfraternity council and
Phi Eta Sigma Freshman
Honor Society was earned by
Phi Gamma Delta, since they
had the highest pledge class
average with the required
minimum number of persons.
According to a report from
the Office of Student Affairs,
the percentage of fraternity
men in relation to the total
number of male under­graduates
has continued to
rise this year, with a 2.5 per
cent increase in chapter mem­bership
over spring quarter
last year. The improvement of
grades of fraternity, men was
greater than the improvement
of those not affiliated.
Since 1947, Phenix City and
Columbus, GA commuters
have organized a large and
dependable carpool. Johnson's
father, uncle and cousin also
participated when they were
students.
Now, however, the carpool
seems in danger of dissolving.
Although there are 25 to 30
riders this quarter, at least 10
are seniors, as well as several-students
who will co-op fall
quarter. Any Phenix City or
Columbus commuter
interested in joining the car-pool
should contact Johnson
at 297-3921, or by leaving a
message on the tree, before fall
quarter's schedule is made up.
There is another "message
point" in Phenix City, across
from the Phenix City Plaza'
shopping center. On the leg of
a power transmission tower
there is a box, which is used for
carpool messages.
In 27 years, there has been
only one accident. Drivers are
strongly urged to obey speed
limits by their riders, who
don't re.lish an officer-enforc­ed
delay, Johnson said. When

speed limits were reduced to 55
mph, cars left Phenix City 10
minutes earlier than usual.
Every member of the car-pool
drives at least once a
week, and pays for his own
gas. Cars leave Phenix City at
8 and 9 a.m. and drivers leave
Auburn at 12, 2, 3 and 4 p.m.
Two riders work at the Univer­sity,
and supply the last ride
home at 4.
Cars wait for riders until 10
minutes after the hour, so a
commuter needs to be
dependable. Schedules are
drawn up at the beginning of
the quarter by whoever volun­teers.
If a passenger knows he
will be late, or if he decides to
go home at a different time, he
leaves a message on the tree.
The street near the tree serves
as a loading zone.
When it rains, which often
happens at Auburn, pas­sengers
wait at the little Post
Office or the Uniuri Building.
According to Johnsonj where­ver
the first rider waits, the
others usually collect.
Because of the time differ­ence,
commuters gain an hour
coming to Auburn, but lose one
returning home. Johnson said
it was rough to leave Auburn
at 3 and not get home until 5.
During finals, it's each rider
for himself. Commuters may
g«t together on their own, but
no schedule is made. Although
two riders may have different
drive schedules, they often get
together between classes.
There is a corner in the Haley
Center lounge where the
commuters congregate to talk*
play cards, and sometimes, in
Johnson's Words, "they say
they study."
Johnson has noticed few
comments on the message tree.
Once, he recalled,-a rider left a
note saying "I've gone on
home," and a passing wit
added, "So have I." A few
times, the clip has
accomodated religious
pamphlets and other notices.
If you happen to see' a note
clipped to the tree, don't be
disappointed that its message
lacks mystery or excitement.
That slip of paper represents.
27 years of continuous co-oneration.
IT S A RIP-OFF
Have you read those recent announcements in THE COLLEGIAN, outlining a
program where students can now purchase brand name products direct from the
manufacturer or distributor? They claim they can save students the huge retail
mark-up on the majority of products they are buying now and will soon be buy­ing
after graduation. Nothing is that good. IT MUST BE A RIP-OFF — RIGHT? Did
you also hear their guarantee — in writing — double the difference back in cash.
. . should the buying service price in every area, not be lower than all other dis­count
or regular retail store prices! No one could do that on over 750,000 pro­ducts
— even if they have been in business for twenty years. THERE MUST BE A
CATCH! Of course you have heard that a few of your friends attended meetings,
explaining the buying service, and were excited about the money they could
save. But what do they know — YOU'RE NOT GOING TO GET RIPPED-OFF!
Besides, you can't afford to take forty-five minutes at a meeting to find out how
to save 600-1000 dollars on your next car, or thirty to sixty percent on your next
stereo purchase, or most anything you're going to buy.
YOU ARE RIGHT — IT'S A RIP-OFF! EVERY DAY YOU CONTINUE TO BUY ITEMS
ON THE RETAIL LEVEL££ YOU ARE BEING RIPPED-OFF!
But you'll have no one to blame but yourself if you don't take the time to find out
more about this buying service program. Make us prove it to you!

Behind the scenes
is a man
The scene is Jordan-Hare Stadium on one of many fall foot­ball
afternoons. The time is 1:30 CDT and a familiar voice
drawls, "Heeeeeeeeerrre come the Tigers!" A mass of blue net
jerseys with tanned backs showing through takes the field.
The field itself is beautifully trimmed and green, lined off in
white and ready for the contest about to take place.
The coaches and players have spent weeks during spring and
fall practices to prepare for the game drilling, learning plays,
changing positions, and working together as a team..
Along with the fans, these things make up a football game.
But there is someone behind the lines that the players and
coaches would be hard put to do without. His name is Mil-tonThurston
and he's the equipment manager for the Auburn
athletic teams.
He describes his job as "growing the grass, grooming the
athletic fields, lining off the fields, suiting up the players, and
cleaning up" and it's a mighty big job at Auburn.
During the summer months Thurston's main concern is keep­ing
up the athletic grounds including the track, baseball field,
practice field, and the stadium. The job involves maintaining
and repairing seats and signs in the stadium, painting the
ladies and mens restrooms, and maintaining the concession
stands.
The grasses on the fields have to be fertilized every two to
three weeks and watered. They have to be cut almost every
other day. Right now Thurston's staff is washing down the sta­dium
seats, a job that will probably take a week.
But in one month, the big job will really start. Some 200 foot­ball
players will return to the Plains ready for practice and pro­vide
Thurston with plenty of work.
Each player's practice equipment will be put in a locker
assigned to him by number and he can turn in any articles for
clean ones before any practice.
In the two-a-day drills the first two weeks of fall practice, this
can amount to tons of laundry a week. "We started doing our
own laundry here when the prices downtown were about $1 per
article. Now it probably costs $1.50 to $2 for each article," said
Thurston. "We've even started washing the basketball uni­forms.
We figure we save a lot of money by doing it that way."
From the beginning of the season, Thurston really shows his
value. With games on their minds, the players don't worry
about whether they have all their equipment together and
ready to go. They know it will be where it is needed because Mil­ton
Thurston has never let them down.
The football player never touches his game equipment except
to put it on before the game and take it off afterwards.
Before out of town games, the player takes his shoulder and
hip pads to the equipment room and concentrates on the game.
Thurston and his staff then get each players equipment, identi­fied
with his number, and make sure that every necessary piece
is put into a travel bag with that number. These bags are then
loaded into the back of a pickup truck to be taken to the
game site.
In addition to the pickup, Thurston rents a U-Haul trailer for
extra equipment, uniforms, the trainers' equipment, and side­line
capes.
Weather and field conditions are uncertainties until the time
of the games, and Thursran has to take this into account when
packing for a trip. For each player who makes the trip, three or
four pairs of shoes are taken. Many times players don't know
which kind of shoe they want to wear until they've walked the
field — the kind of surface and dry or wet conditions play a big
part in that decision.
The weather immediately before the game also commands
the type of jerseys to be worn and several sets of net and solid
jerseys have to be taken along.

Miami defense led by Carter;
SEC's leading rusher with Wildcats
1
On Oct. 4, the Auburn Tigers
will head for Florida's east
coast in the height of hurri­cane
season to encounter one
personally in the form of the
University of Miami Hurri­cane.
And in the eye of the storm is
Miami's Rubin Carter, a 6—1,
262—pound middle guard for
the Hurricane. Miami center,
Steve Ludwig, says that one
man can't get the job done
against Carter who has an ad­vantage
besides size—he's
fast. Some backs are slower
than.his 4.7 clocking in the 40.
Rounding out the 5-2 defense
are ends Clarence Corker and
Steadman Scavella and tack­les
Jose Gonzalez and Gary
Dunn, with Rich Griffiths and
Rick Liddell at the lineback-ing
positions.
The secondary includes
Eldridge Mitchell, Ernest
Jones, Paul Horschel, and
Dave Sydnor.
Nine of these defensive
starters are returning from the
1973 team that upset Texas in
the Cotton Bowl and fought a
hard losing battle with mighty
Oklahoma in a 24-21 contest.
Ail-American prospect
Dennis Harrah will return at
offensive tackle for Miami as
will guards Bert Cumut and
Joe Wysock, tackle Bill
Capraun, center George
Demopoulos and tightend Phil
Aucust.
Split end Steve Marcantonio
is capable of catching the ball
in any kind of traffic and then
going with it.
Woody Thompson should be
Miami's best running back
with 4.6 speed and HU2 yards
under his belt last season,
second best in Miami history.
Thompson added three scores
in the .Hurricane's Cotton
Bowl victory and netted ISO
yards in 32 carries against
Boston College.
Experienced fullback Alan
Reynaudi and quarterback Ed
Carney also return from the 73
offensive unit leaving wing-back
Larry Cain as the only
new face.
Miami's optimistic outlook
has reasonable basis. The
Hurricane returns 19 starters,
44 lettermen, and a host of
prospects from their unbeaten
freshman team.
They cite their confrontat­ions
with Notre Dame and
Alabama as the only obvious
problems for the 74 season.
Oct. 4 may prove them wrong.
Kentucky
The Kentucky Wildcats
haven't won more than three
games in a season since 1966,
that is, luntil last year under
new head coach Fran Curci.
The Wildcats went 5-6 last
season pulling big upsets over
Georgia, 12-7 in Athens, and
14th ranked Tulane 34-7. If the
defense had pulled itself to­gether
Kentucky could have
mustered its first winning sea­son
in eight years.
Offensively, The Wildcats
promise to be a threat in 1974.
All-Comers meets
end on August 1
By Sam Wood
Intramurals Editor
The past few All-Comers
track meets have been
especially entertaining for the
many spectators. Last week's
was certainly no exception as
ydung and old alike went away
with the pleasures of victory as
well as the pain of defeat.
William White lead the eight
and under age group with
three firsts while Randy Dun­can
took tne top nunore in,the
940 group with three firsts and
three seconds. Andy Sforzini
and Hayward Jackson were
fairly even in the 11-12 age
group with two firsts and two.
seconds each.
The 15-17 age group had two
outstanding entries. Maurice
The SEC's leading rusher for
1973, Sonny Collins, is still
with them. He gained 1,213
yards for 110 yards per game
and was also the conference's
leading scorer with 13 touch
downs and a two-point
conversion.
Steve Campassi is another
runner with strength and
ability and runners Bill Bar-tos
and Joe Dupre add depth.
Kentucky's new Veer
offense will be engineered by
quarterback Mike Fanuzzi
who tallied 393 yards rushing
and 559 passing for 8 TD's in
'73. Center Kick,Nuzum is a
good blocker and has good
.coordination with Fanuzzi.
Tight end Elmore Stephens
led Wildcat receivers with 16
snatches for 282 yards and 4
TD's. His size (6'3", 231) and
ability are perfectly suited for
the Veer. Stephens and Collins
are possible Ail-American
candidates.
The defense is led by line­backer
Tom Ehlers, defensive
captain. Jeff Thompson joins
him at the linebackine nosi-tion
with ends Kevin Acheson
and Rick Fromm.
Talented secondary men
include Ray Carr and Greg
Woods with Woods probably
seeing duty as punt returner.
Curci has 12 starters return­ing
from the '73 team but lost
key defensive men Jim McCol-lum,
Frank Lemaster, and
Darryl Bishop.

game that may be tested most

Last week's softball scores
were all but close until the end
of the week. .
To start the week's wide
variety of scores, Washed-Out-
Rednecks cleaned Anders 32 to

the fourth inning, the Red­necks
had no thoughts of loss,
however, Anders got encour­aged
with a three-run homer in
the fourth inning and began to
push forward. Yet, the four
runs gained in the fifth inning
were not enough to stop the
leaders who gained seven
more by the end of the fifth inn­ing
to win the game. The early
lead for the victors was boost­ed
by two homeruns by
Donaldson and Dean and held

Safety Mike Fuller
Returns' for last fall
By Carolyn Roup
Sports Editor
There was one area in which
the 1973 Auburn football team
outdid their opponents and
that was in punt and kickoff re­turns.
The Tigers had 642
yards in punt returns and 578
in kickoff returns compared to
3l and 476 respectively for
their foes.
A lot of the difference is due
to the hardnosed defense on re­turns,
but accounting for the
tremendous Auburn total was
Mike Fuller, safety and return
man for the Tigers.
He has two essential
characteristics important for
his play in the defensive secon­dary—
speed and intelligence.
Former secondary coach Sam
Mitchell said that Mike was
the fastest back he had ever
coached at Auburn and that as
the "quarterback of the de­fense"
he had alertness and
"football sense."
In keeping with his "quarter­back"
role Mike spends extra
time watching films and re­viewing
plays and positions.
As a sophomore, Mike
played offensively at tailback,
wingback and split end but
moved to defense in the spring
of '73 and stayed there.
Perhaps his biggest game at
safety last season came
against Tennessee when Mike
had seven individual tackles
and two assists to tie for se­cond
in the Headhunter
awards. The Tennessee game
will be a big one this year not
only for Mike but for the whole
team and he'll be hoping to re­peat
his outstanding per­formance..
Mike was a tough defensive
man at safety in his first year
at the position, but his breath­taking
runs with the ball far
overshadowed his play.
In the area of returns, Mike
made a fantastic debut after
regular return man David
Langner was injured. In the
best defensive game of the sea­son
against Houston, Mike
had two punt returns for 115
yards one for 63 yards and
another for 52. In Auburn's los­ing
fight with Georgia he
returned his only touchdown
on a kickoff, a spectacular 96
yard run.
He finished the season with
381 yards in 20 repunt returns
for a 19.1 average and was se­cond
in the nation in that cate­gory.
He also had 16 kickoff re­turns
for 420 yards, making a
composite total of 801, the
NCAA's second best.
That kind of act is hard to
follow and some athletes
would be worried about the
pressure. "I don't think I'm
going to feel any unusual pres­sure,"
said Mike, "besides,
you're supposed to play better
under pressure. I'll just be
concerned with the game and
the rest will fall into place."
Last season was his first at
safety since he was an All-
American at John Shaw in Mo­bile.
"It was a kind of sud­den
change to safety," said
Mike. "I know I did a lot of
things wrong. But during
spring I was building up my
confidence and learning."
Mike foresees a whole
different kind of season in
1974, especially for himself.
"I'll be playing with a whole
different attitude this year,"
said the potential All-Ameri­ca.
"I won't be worrying about
how great Mike Fuller is doing
but glorifying someone else."
Mike and a lot of other players
had some great experiences to­gether
in Bible studies at
Sewell Hall during spring

are much closer as a group. It

team.
Is Mike Fuller ready for the
1974 Auburn football season?
"I think we're all ready after a
good spring," he concluded.
"And after this season begins
we can finally forget about last
year."

In 29 years as equipment manager for Auburn teams, Thurs­ton
has never been late for a game or had a serious setback.
There have been many minor incidents, of course, and Thurs­ton
especially remembers one.
It was in Atlanta at a Georgia Tech game and one of the boys
named Cook who wore no. 11 couldn't find his bag. After
searching, Thurston finally outfitted him with his extra equip­ment
and sent him out on the field. When the team had cleared
the locker room, there was number 11 's bag in the middle of the
room.
"The important thing to remember in my job is to stay
ahead," says Thurston. "We try to anticipate any problems that
may come up so that we'll be prepared for anything. We can't
afford to get behind."
It's worked so far.

"Oklahoma Crude'
Oil and the products derived
from the ".black gold" have
been in the news quite a bit in
the past couple of years. The
story of the gooey substance
goes back many years.
"Oklahoma Crude" pre­sents
a portion of that story
from the early days of the 20th
century. The film is the Spec­tra
movie of the week and will
be shown at 7 and 9:15 p.niLon
Friday and Sunday in Lang-don
Hall and at 8 p.m. Satur­day
on the lawn of Carolyn
Draughon Village.
George C. Scott, Faye Duna-way,
John Mills and Jack
Palance star in the film direct­ed
by Stanley Kramer.
Females encouraged to use
free Union rec room games
The Auburn Union has a
real bargain for women stu­dents.
All billiard and table
tennis games in the recreation
room will be free to females on
weekends.
Women students pay for the
facilities just as much as men
students and we want to
encourage the females to use
the rec room facilities, said
Tom Roberson, assistant
director-programs.
The free use of the games
will go into effect Friday. The
bargain is only for the period
from 6 to 11 p.m. on Fridays
and Saturdays, Roberson said.
It will be in effect until the end
of the quarter.
. The free cost, offer will also
be given to the female's date
for table tennis; the date's cost
for billiards will be five cents.
famous musicians and orches­tra
leaders, his reputation has
always been somewhat contro­versial.
"I've been called a pio­neer,
but I've also been called a
fool for tampering with the
familiar," he said._
In his work with music stu­dents
in high schools and uni­versities,
he hopes to bring
about a new direction in music
education. "I feel that a
student is being shortchanged
if he is offered only one side of
music," Kenton said.
"We bring jazz to campuses,
not because I believe jazz is the
only worthwhile music, but
because I feel that jazz, rock
and the classical works are all
important musical forms, arid
our youngsters should be
exposed to all of them.
"Our audiences are chang­ing,
too," he continued. "We
have always had an enthu­siastic
following of the over-forty
group who remember the
band from its early days. Now
we are seeing more teens and
twenties, who are discovering
jazz for themselves, and who
like it.
"The rock-oriented younger
people are changing. They are
finding there is more
excitement than they realized
in music of substance such as
ours."
Kenton was born in 1912 in
Wichita, KA. After gradua­tion
from Bell (California)
High School, he began play­ing
piano and arranging for
several California orchestras,
interspersed with periods for
the study of solfeggio, theory,
harmony and conducting.
His first orchestra of 14
pieces was organized in 1941
and opened at the Rendezvous
Ballroom in Balbia, CA, where
it' achieved instant recogni­tion
and success as a "new Big
Band sound."
Recording and national
tours with this orchestra
followed, and they received
honors such as Look Maga­zine's
"Band of the Year"
award and recognition by
Downbeat, Metronome and
Variety jazz polls.

National Science Foundation gives AU grant
A National Science Founda­tion
grant of $219,000 will be
awarded to Auburn Univer­sity
during the next three
years to develop a program of
technical assistance to the
Alabama legislature.
The funding will be used to
develop an experimental office
of Technical Assistance at the
state capital. The office will
provide information to law­makers
on complex, techinical
legislation.
This is part of a new move­ment
to link state legislators
with experts in different
scientific and technical fields
from statewide resources such
as colleges, universities and
government agencies, accord­ing
to Auburn researchers.
Representatives involved in
legislation of a highly
technical', nature would be
able to secure information and
assistance from such an office.
"We expect this office to act
as a model linkage mechan­ism,
not only for the Alabama
legislature, but for other state
legislatures with limited staff
support" explained Dr. Vin­cent
S. Haneman Jr., dean of
Auburn's School of Engineer­ing
and project director of the
experiment.
The office will act as a
brokerage house for scientific
and technical information,
conducting brief investiga­tions
and. issuing findings to
the legislature, as well as
bringing together legislators
and technical experts on a
personal basis, he said.

WOMAN OF STEEL
Husband watches while his wife does the work
Lady steelworker modes AU
By Iqbal Fakhri
Plainsman Staff Writer
The steel working business
in Auburn is not limited to men
only. Sonia Shepard, a 58-year-old
steel worker of Salem, is
working as a rodbuster in the
construction of the handball
courts and is liking it.
The helmeted Shepard
looked very much like a steel
worker with rough hands and
dirty clothes. She is a short,
stocky lady with a good
temperament.
She needs almost no prompt­ing
to tell you about her life.
How did she get started in steel
working? Her husband's fore­man
had a habit of getting
drunk every weekend and
wouldn't turn up for work until
the middle of the week.
Shepard got pretty dis­gusted
with the situation. On a
Monday five years ago she sur­prised
her husband and
started working. The She-pards
had an argument about
it and naturally the lady won.
A rodbuster is a person who
builds the molds and places
the steel for reinforced con­crete
structures.
After a while the other
workers got used to having her
around. All the cursing
stopped and the admiration of
the male workers grew as she
proved herself a capable
worker. Her husband said,
"She is the best worker I have
ever hired. She is equal to if hot
better than any of the men."
He should know because he
has been in the steel construc­tion
business for 45 years.
Everybody at the construction
site referred to her as "Mama."
She is very fond of the boys.
"They will give their right
arms for me and I for them,"
she said.
She said she likes to be on
construction structures 40 to
50 feet above the ground or 30
forest experimental station
building lab on campus
By Susan Fredrick
Plainsman Staff Writer
The only federal forest engi­neering
research group in the
South will soon be building a
new home on campus. The
research lab will be the fourth
such lab in the nation, accord­ing
to Dennis Rouse, dean of
Agriculture Administration.
The U. S. Department of
Agriculture (USDA) Southern
Forest Experiment Station's
research center is now located
in borrowed quarters in the
Agricultural Engineering
Building.
The building, being
completed in two phases as
money is available, will con­sist
of approximately 25,000
square feet of office and
laboratory space on a six-acre
site off Donahue Drive and
South College Street near the
forestry plots.
According to Rouse, the
facilities of the new forestry
fab will also accomodate the
Brewton Laboratory which
houses a continuing study of
the growth and yield of the
long leaf pine.
A proposal has been passed
by the Board of Trustees to
name the new laboratory for
the late Congressman George
Andrews who did much to
assist in the funding and plans
for the building.
Paul L. Shillings, project
leader for the USDA Forest
Service, will continue to be in
charge of the federal facility.
The purposes of the research
laboratory are to investigate
better means of mangement of
our land and trees and to
increase productivity and pro­fitable
woodland manage­ment.
to 40 feet beneath it. She said,
"Men mind their own busi­ness,"
unlike professions
where women are involved and
she said she likes that.
Contrary to what one might
think she is a well educated
woman. She studied for two
years in Europe and for 15
years lived in either Czecho-slavakia,
Germany or France.
She is a practical nurse and
has taught sewing to children.
Out of everything she learned
and did she liked rodbusting
best.
She has no plans for the
future and plans to be a rod­buster
for a long time.
Morrison's
to cater
frat meals
The Lambda Chi Alpha fra­ternity
food service will be
catered by Morrisons begin­ning
fall quarter, according to
Danny Wood, president of the
fraternity. Wood said that
Morrisons will have complete
charge of the upkeep of the
kitchen and facilities, but the
fraternity will keep previously
hired kitchen employes.
An onsight manager hired
by Morrisons will plan menus
and see that the kitchen is kept
clean and up to the standards
set by Morrisons. This will be a
definite advantage for the
Lambda Chi's, according to
Wood.
The district manager for
Morrisons will inspect the
kitchen and all negotiations
between the manager and the
fraternity will be done by a
steward elected by the brothers
each quarter.
Wood said that after nine
months the fraternity will
evaluate Morrisons service
and decide whether or not to
continue the policy.
By Iqbal H. Fakhri
Plainsman Staff Writer
A new central supervisory
control system that monitors
tbe tempenilure and locates
mechanical faults in aircondi-tioning
units lias been in
operation since the first of
June in Noble Hall, tbe
Auburn Union, and Magnolia
Hall.
The system, which works via
a computer-like console with a
continuous print-out and digi­tal
display units, can be pre­programmed
to turn the air
conditioning on and off at
specified times. According to
Col. L. E. Funchess, director
of buildings and grounds, the
new system will make effi­cient
use of energy and keep
the electricity bills down.
The rest of the 25 buildings
that are scheduled to be
booked up by the (bird week of
fail quarter include all (be air
conditioned women's' dorms,
Dfaughon Library, Ramsey
Hall and Funchess Hall. Haley
Center and Parker Hall have
separate panels and full-time
employes. The Honeywell
Delta 2000 system will be used
to monitor all the buildings on
campus at a later date, accord­ing
to Funchess.
The old system was replaced
by the new $K):i,2<>5 system
because it was obsolete.
According to Funchess. the old
system was hard to maintain
and was sold to Alex City
.Junior College for $1000. The
new system will be easier to
maintain because it has capa­bilities
to locate faults within
itself.
The new system can also be
used as a burglar alarm at an
additional cost of $1000 per
building. At present its use as
such is not anticipated.
Funchess said that roughly
half the schools the size of
Auburn have such a system;
among them are Georgia Tech,
the University of Cincinnati
and Harvard.

delivery of Gl Bill checks C WANTED TO BUY 3 C FOR SALE J
The Veterans Administra­tion
(VA) has embarked on an
all-out program to ensure
prompt delivery of GI Bill
education and training checks.
Vet-Reps will be available to
college campuses in advance
of the heavy fall enrollment.
Most of them are expected to be
Vietnam veterans. The "Men
on Campus" representatives
will personally distribute GI
student checks and serve as
agency liaison personnel in
contacts with colleges and
veterans students.
The on Campus Vet-Reps
will deliver advance payments
checks covering the first two
months payments to veteran-students
when they first
enroll. They will assist with
the administrative work need­ed
to insure that subsequent
checks are delivered to
addresses supplied by stu­dents.
Formerly, veterans had to
make a special reauest for ad­vance
payment; now, all appli­cations
for education benefits
will be treated as requests for
advance payment. Checks will
be sent to the VA man on cam­pus
who will get correct
addresses for veterans at the
time of the first checks are
delivered.
The Vet-Rep will serve as an
expert on veterans affairs
throughout the school year,

would be doomed without the
local station managers' per­mission.
Jerry Ring, program mana­ger
for WAOA radio station in
Opelika, said he "would be
silly to want competition."
"Actually the FCC would
say yes or no to WEGL's
demands, and I can't see why
anyone needs my permission
to talk it over," he said.
King said he feels that the
educational service of WEGL
would not be enhanced by an
increase in power, and he
would "No sooner welcome fur­ther
competition from WEGL
than he would any other
commercial station."
Elmer Salter, station mana­ger
of WAUD, has expresssed
an opinion in the past that the
increase would not be neces­sary
or helpful to the students.
Webb and former WEGL sta­tion
manager Dave Gamble
have met with all three local
station heads in the past to dis­cuss
the pros and cons of the
proposal.
IVJHO station manager
Jack Smollen has repeatedly
said in the past that he would
welcome any competition that
WEGL would give in the area.
regional office in Montgomery.
His duties will include coopera­tion
with campus veterans
organizations and the Office of
Veterans Affairs.
Information on new laws
and rules will be tunneled
through him, and he will be
available as a consultant to
university officials and
faculties.
i Information requirements
have also been reduced. Rather
than have enrollment certi­fied
frequently, each student
will be enrolled for the dura­tion
of his program.
A beginning student, for
example, will be enrolled for a
two or four period, thus
eliminating the multiple
interruptions and continuous
VA award actions required
under the old system that had
to combine timely informa­tion
from the veteran, the
school and the VA before a
check could be processed.
Contributing to check delay
problems during the current
school ye_ar was a heavier than
expected veteran enrollment,
and the first-time application
of new legislation providing
payments in advance rather
than after the completion of a
r^onth's training.
The new program is intend­ed
to completely eliminate
causes for complaint, John­son
said. But recognizing that
some complaints are
inevitable in the payment of 13
million educational checks a
year, he added that the new
system would provide much
earlier recognition and resolu­tion
of any out of line situa­tions.
Nearly a million veterans
who served in the Armed
Forces between Oct. 1,1972 and
Jan. 1, 1973 have back pay­checks
awaiting them. But to
be sure they will get the money
they must tell the Pentagon
where they are.
Veterans who served in the
Armed Forces between Oct. 1,
1972. and Jan. 1 1973, should
write a snort letter giving his
full name, Social Security

Student fees will pay
for streaking damage
Repair costs for damage to '
dormitories during winter
quarter streaking amounted to
$576.87, according to James E.
Foy, dean of student affairs.
The damage was mainly to
screens, which were knocked
out of windows and bent past
repair. All together, 20 screens
in Auburn Hall, and dorms B,
J, and K were damaged.
Dorms J and K have to be
scaffolded in order to replace
screens. Eighteen of the
broken screens were in these
dorms.
Cost for repair of a window
broken out of the front door of
dorm J was $52.62. According
to Marion B. Smith, supervisor
of women's dormitories, these
windows are broken fre­quently.-
The money to repair the
damage will come out of the
contingency fund, according
to Foy. This fund, created from
student activities fees, is set up
to cover damages which can­not
be attributed to indi­viduals.
If the fund isn't used,
it returns to student activities.
"We have a way to take care
of things of this kind," said
Foy, "but it's a shame to use
our money this way."
Auburn ETY grant
adds new equipment
Take a break
—R. C. Dennis
A $453,750 grant for the
improvement of Auburn
Educational Television pro­duction
equipment has been
received by the Alabama
Educational Television Com­mission
from the U. S. Dept. of
Health, Education and Wel­fare.
The announcement was
made jointly this week by Bob
Dod, general manager of
ACTC, and Pres. Harry M.
Philpott.
Dod pointed out that the
grant is conditional on formal
action on the part of the
Federal Communications
Commission in renewing the
Alabama ETV licenses. The
grant will be partially
matched by University funds.
Auburn is among 58 public
broadcasting stations receiv­ing
improvement grants total­ing
$11.7 million from the U.
S. Office of Education.
According to Edward Wege­ner,
director of ETV at
Auburn, the eqipment pur­chased
with the grant money
will enable the Auburn studio
to produce its own color pro­grams.
Most of the 252 public
television stations in the na­t
i o n already.have this capa­bility,
he said. "This grant is
the most serious and compre­hensive
effort to date in set­ting
up total color capabilities
in the Alabama network."
Major equipment will be pur­chased
with the grant, includ­ing
color studio cameras, video
tape recorders, and equipmenr
for color film origination,
according to Wegener.
The wonders of nature never die. An
interested observer like this one is all
that is necessary to revive them. It
becomes easy in the everyday rush of
classes and jobs to ignore the beauty
displayed by nature, but a few minutes of
quiet meditation a day will bring it all
back.
What is he looking at? A tree, a squir­rel,
or maybe a good-looking coed.
