FEB. 21, 1967 THE HILLTOP NEWS PAGE 2

It Is Already Mid-February

The freshman arrives on the college campus In the fall full of confidence and the knowledge that college is going to be ex- citing. It Is here that he will find the new ideas, new hopes, the new goals of his life. It Is here that he will find unlimited opportunities for leadership, for developing the tools that he will need to fight hypocrisy and indifference and to change the world; it is here that he will pitt and sharpen his wits against the professors' academic brains. But instead he finds himself dulling the odge of his enthusiasm against a rock-hard wall of apathy; or perhaps it would ~oe more accurate to say that he finds himself stuck in a spongy mass that, no matter how much it might appear to bend, he can never completely break through. The weekly test or the term papers become more im- portant than the end they are trying to achieve—to help mold the student into the thinking in- dividual. The freshman quickly loses his view of the end and

devotes all of his energies to simply "doing the work.'N

This apathy is not only to be found in the administration (cul- pable as they are, the admini- stration can't be blamed for ev- erything), but also in the faculty members who see their career as only a job--a job that must be done quickly and efficiently, according to a classroom rou- tine that never changes, no mat- ter how the world might change. Yet the greatest guilt must be placed on the freshman himself. For he is the one who gives up the fight. He gradually begins to accept things as they are, giving up forever any hope of changing them. He stops think- ing, and he stops growing. He gives up his all out war on the world that he did not make, for a policy of peaceful co-exis- tence with those who did; he, surrenders.

This whole process takes about nine months—from Sep- tember to June. And it is al- ready February.

BY JERRY THACKER

(ACP)—We've suspected for some time that the university thinks it is the watchdog for all women who live in residence halls, but a recent Incident con- vinced us of it, says the Wes- tern Herald, West ern Michigan University.

Every time a coed without blanket pemission to go as she pleases checks out of a hall overnight, the hall sends a little

note to mama and papa telling them where precious has gone. If the note disagrees with par- ents' information, the parents are to let the university know.

But over the summer a married undergraduate checked out for the weekend and the note was sent to her husband. Sort of makes us wonder what the university thinks undergraduate coeds are like.

To say the least, it Is a frustrating experience to be on The Hilltop News staff. Being on the Hilltop News staff means that one is to put out a paper in a first class category. The paper is to be interesting, funny, controversial, complimentary, newsy, exciting and full of wiseness.

The name of the tiling— newspaper—is self-explanatory. It is self-explanatory in that it defines the purpose of the paper- to report the news. If you think that your newspaper is uninteresting, dry and uncontroversial. If you think that it Is fuU of nothing but trivia, remember this—it reflects the news on your campus, which are of your making, LC student. N> -p.

Are Tests a Good Measure?

(ACP) — Do tests really con- tribute anything to education? asks the Campus Chat, North Texas State University.

They are not an infallible measure of a student's aca- demic ability, nor do they prompt the student to develop his talents and interests to the fullest.

But because professors place such great emphasis on the out- come of exams, the student be- gins to play a giant guessing game—what will the professor have on his test?

Two students converse. One says, "Fon't read chapter nine. George had Professor X last semester and he said there are no questions from that chap- ter."

"Thanks," the other says. "By the way, I heard he asks only detailed questions, so don't bother with the big stufr."

Meanwhile, a third student might be busy selling copies of tests.

Like computers, these stu- dents tend to spit back memor- ized knowledge while their own ideas decay. They don't have tims to develop their own ideas because they're too busy play- ing the guessing game. Such a system defeats the purpose of higher education.

How could students be evalu- ated? Give them passing or failing grades based on the amount of work they do? Let them do research papers and use their own ideas instead of memorizing someone else's? The elimination of tests would

Vesper services for the next two weeks are to feature, on February 26, Dr. Dodd, and on March 5, Dan Atkinson. Every- one is invited to attend.

The Hilltop News Staff will meet tonight at 6 p.m. The Staff is urged to attend this very important meeting promptly.

Why Textbooks Are Expensive

Why are textbooks so expen- sive, asks Western Michigan University's "Western Her- ald? Is it the fault of the uni- versity - owned "non-profit" bookstore whose prices are as high as those of the profit-mak- ing i>ookstores? Is the publish- ing industry to blame?

Both contribute to the situa- tion, the 'Western Herald" concluded, but the greater cul- prit, without a doubt, is the pub- lishing industry. "Time" ma- gazine recently revealed that the book industry relies on text- books and children's books to support gambling losses on adult grade books. All the major publishers, "Time" said, "print text and reference books as well as children's books, which are dependable money- makers. Their profitable text- book and paper back operations enable them to gamble on adult trade books — which as a rule lose money." One publisher estimated that "60% of adult trade books end up in the red, another 36% break even, and only 4% turn a decent profit."

Should students be forced to bear the brunt of the industry's losses and non-profits? Pub- lishers are fuUy ware that they have the students over a barrel since students must buy parti- cular required textbooks.

There are two possible solu- tions to the dilemma. On a local level, student government could promote some type of competi- tive selling of new texts. We can buy everything from groceries to automobiles on a discounted basis; this opportunity should also be provided for students in the purchase of required books.

On a wider level, the National Student Association could make the public and the publishing industry aware of the abuse students face in textbook pric- es. If housewives can demand fairer prices for food, a na- tionally supported student effort to acquire more realistic prices is also feasible. It is no doubt true that profits from texts help to support great publications that otherwise never would be printed but a 96 per cent sup- port is entirely unrealistic.

Dear Hortense, Last week I clumsily fell out

of the washroom and hurt my ankle. My fraternity brothers have been accusing me of doing it on purpose to get out of a road trip. I assure you this was not the case. Now they are threatening me with these gosh-awful grossities and Pm not that type of boy. Please tell me how I can get out of this dilemma. Or even better, how I can fake a foot injury until pledging is over.

Shmodda

Dear Shmo, I know your pledge master

personally and he is not of a very gentle disposition. I would advise you to fake being healthy or you may be injured perma- nently.

Dear Hortense, You will notice that this letter

is postmarked Parris Island. This thing started out as a joke, but I'm afraid it has gone too far. You see, my fraternity brothers took me on a road trip last week. After I got out of the car and had walked a few hundred yards I heard this voice cry out, "Halt — Who goes there." When I attempted to tell him v/'io I was and what I was doing, he took me to see this "sergeant .... To cut a loag story short, I've been on KP for three days now. Every time I open my mouth, they threaten me with the stockade. They won't believe that I'm not a marine at all. What can I do?

Private KP Dear KP,

Are you trying to shirk your patriotic responsibilities? Take this golden opportunity to serve your country. Witt a little luck you may even make PLO.

Dear Hortense, I love a freshman girl who Is

going with another guy. He Is a Brother in my pledging frat. What should I do?

Out-Classed Dear Out-Classed,

Have a 2.0 grade average next quarter.

'We Like Peggy' BY LAURA FIELDSTEAL

Tne Chicken Treat is visited almost every night by an LC student with a craving for good slawdogs. This student Is Peg- gy Bowen. Peggy, alias French- fries, giggles often, loves to play bridge and sergeants and hates to lose. She is clothes- conscious and is concerned with what people think. She is the proud owner of a tempo ramon- tal car that has to be parked in a certain place so that it won't roll away. But she is much more than this.

Peggy is particular about more than clothes, she Is con- scious about everything she does. This concern has brought her a membership in Who's Who, One of the Most Outstand- ing Seniors and part of the legislative Council. Socially her Greek alliance is to AKO, where she has been treasurer for the past two years. Her brother fraternity has elected her Sweetheart, and she is now the proud owner o' one dozen white roses. She works for Dean Harwell, whom she thinks has a good sense of humor. She is abusiness administration major and is confidant of con- quering Wall St. in the near future.

MINSTREL INTERVIEW

Johnson Address (Editorial)

(As presented by Little Boy Johnson, president of the U- nlted States and grandson of a former President whom we all know and love. The address was delivered at the dedication of the American military ceme- tery "Gettysburg East," out- side of Saigon in the year 2052).

Mah feUow Americans: Foah score and seven years

ago, my grandfather brought forth upon this continent of Asia a new political concept, con- ceived in expediency and dedi- cated to the proposition that we are better dead than red.

Now we are engaged in a Great Society (oops, I mean a Great Civil War), and for that matter have been engaged in that Great Civil War for four score and seven years now, testing whether that concept of a permanent American military presence in Asia or any con- cept so ill-conceived and so in- eptly executed, can long endure.

We are met on a great bat- tlefield of that war, a battlefield where General Ky was over- thrown by General Hee, where General Hee was overthrown by General Me, where General Me was overthrown by General Wee, where General Wee was overthrown by General Gee, and so forth through the 56 differ- ent coups that finaUy culmina- ted last spring in General Flea's government, which we are now convinced is in a position to bring to this nation the poli- tical stability that is so nec- essary if we are to begin to effectively roll back the ag- gression from the north.

Excuse me folks, I just re- ceived an urgent note. (Oh no, not again.) Hrrumph. What I meant was the 57 coups which finally culminated in General She's coup three minutes ago which we are finally convinced is in a position to at last of- fer this nation the political sta- bility that is...

Hmmrph. Be that as it may. We have come to dedicate this battlefield as a fitting memorial to the light to moderate losses that our forces have sustained over the past 87 years so that my grandfather and his suc- cessors could test the theory that the way to bring Hanoi to the peace table was to esca- late further.

It Is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this, and anyone who thinks otherwise is a nervous nellie and pro- bably a traitor besides and sim- ply helping to prolong the war.

The world will long note and long remember what we did here, probably because we will still be long doing it, but the world will probably never un- derstand WHY we did it.

And frankly, I'm fed up wim that kind of idiotic questioning emanating from the capitals of the world over the last nine de- cades! I DON'T CARE WHY WE ARE HERE! THE POINT IS WE ARE HERE AND ITS TOO LATE TO PULL OUT NOW! WE ARE GOING TO STAY HERE! WE ARE GOING TO ESCALATE! THIS UNPATRIOTIC PRACT- ICE OF DEFERRING GRAND- FATHERS HAS TO STOP SO THAT WE CAN BUILD UP OUR

TROOP COMMITMENT TO 68, 000,000 MEN. ONLY THEN WE WILL HAVE AN ADEQUATE STRENGTH RATIO OF 84 TO 1 NECESSARY TO PUT DOWN THIS INSURRECTION.

And as long as I am presi- dent, mah fellow Americans, I promise you this.- we shall not withdraw, I promise that this nation, under me, shall have a new birth of conformity (boy will we shut up those peace- niks) and that government of consensus, by manipulation for the sake of saving face shall not perish from the earth, al- though admittedly the popula- tion might.

Editor's note: Here's how The New Christy Minstrels feel about their group. They will perform at the Callaway Audi- torium on March 1.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine! And we're not out!! IWe're nine sing- ers singing, nine ministrels playing, nine ambitious, ram- bunctious, irrepressible per- formers who somehow perform together from one to five times a day. . .and not necessarily on the same stage.

How do we keep it up? Our life-on-the-run is as simple as cornbread aid black-eyed peas, really.

First of all, we enjoy It: On state (whether It's before alive TV audience or a hip college campus), we take great pride in singing straight and joyfully - - no sad meanings, no political leanings, but lots of bounce and ail-American energy. We're not trying to incite riots, just hoping to make people happy.

What about the ferns le dele- gation? How do we handle all those curler/hair-dryer/iron- ing board problems? "We're lucky," said Kim Carnes,"that there are two of us. . .There are times when you just need another girl's shoulder to cry on. Or, if my luggage gets lost, I can borrow Kiyolo's extra out- fit; or she may need me to press her skirt because she slept late."

LaGrange CoUege, on the strength of a red-hot first half, coasted to a 73-59 GIC victory over Piedmont Saturday in a game played in the Panther den.

The Panthers toyed with the Lions for the first seven min- utes of the game then broke the contest open with a suces- sion of fast breaks. The second half was somewhat of a rever- sal of the first, with LaGrange caught in the depths of a cold spell throughout.

The game opening with a rush with both teams scoring almost at will. LaGrange managed to keep a two or three point lead although Piedmont stayed close behind some fancy shooting by Hugh FranUn.

Tom Duckett tossed in a beau- tiful hook shot at 13:15 of the half and the Panthers were off and running never to be threa- tened.

Earl Holmes hit an eight point splurge to open a twelve point advantage and Neal Chan- cey came to hit two baskets in the final minute to open up a 42-23 spread for the Panthers at intermission.

Nelson connected to open the second half with Duckett follow- ing with a pair of baskets to give LaGrange a 22-point ad- vantage with sixteen minutes left to play.

It was at this point that the Panthers hit a cold streak and also committed a rash of floor mistakes to aUow the Lions to slowly whittle away at the lead.

However, LaGrange was not sufficiently rattled and the clos- est Piedmont got was 52-40 at 3;25 of the game.

Chancey had good second hall as the 6'4 forward came on to

serves with a minute and a half left and Mike Pullen responded by scoring four points to push LaGrange over the seventy mark.

High scorers for LC were Holmes and Chancey with 13 points apiece. Joe Phillips added eleven.

The LaGrange CoUege plays its final game of the regular season this Tuesday hosting West Georgia. The Panthers close out the schedule by de- fending their title in the Hunt- ingdon Invitational Tournament in Montgomery this weekend.

(ACP) — WAR was publicly declared recently be a group of Colorado State University coeds who announced their campaign for emancipation entitled "Women Are Responsible," the COLLEGIAN reports.

Randy Black, sophomore English major, spoke for the group at the Associated Women Students meeting, advocating a tentative plan for "all women past their fresh man year to have the choice of living off campus or not, with notarized permis- sion from their parents."

"Women are being educated academically but not socially," Miss Black said as she ex- plained the lace of experience in accepting responsibility which coeds face.
