Enrollment going up

LC 's enrollment continues to grow—as evidenced by a record 509 enrolled for the spring quar- ter, and Dean C. Lee Harwell says "it is the best qualified student body in the history of the college."

Mrs. Juanita Overcash of the Registrar's Office said the total figure represents a 31 per cent increase in the last five years.

In the spring of 1961, there were 389 students enrolled here.

A year ago the LC enrollment stood at 467. The total for the fall quarter, traditionally the largest enrollment of the year, was 552.

Dr. Harwell said, "As plea- sed as we are with the constant increase in students, we are even more excited about the improved quality of our student body.

Editorial To our critics

In the first Issue of the Hilltop News this quarter an appeal was made to all persons Interested In working for the paper. This appeal was repeated in the second issue, and in the third and fourth issues announcements of staff meetings were made.

During these last four weeks we have assembled a hard- working, dependable, intelligent, and capable staff.

Also during these last four weeks I have heard a great deal of second-hand criticism of mis newspaper.

The majority of the criticism centers around the theme that this paper is run by a certain clique referred to by various names.

Only a small percentage of the student body, however, has had the motivation confidence, and courage to write a letter to the paper expressing his complaints. The remainder of those of you who do not agree with us seem content to complain, but you do nothing about it. . I am not a bit concerned that some of you do not agree with this paper. Moreover, I would never expect all of you to agree with the HTN, because much of what we publish is somewhat con- troversial.

Let me remind each of you that you had your chance to write for the newspaper. The present staff is made up of me students who came to the staff meetings wanting to work •- Just like the rest of you were asked to do.

So, all of you who shake your rattles of discontent are not going to change the format of mis paper in the least. Our format and our staff are now established.

Hereafter, if you have a complaint, I suggest mat you ex- press it in a letter to the editor, for small talk grows increasingly cheap as the quarter wears on. (HMD)

Communications ? Events on the campus have proven through the years that It is

easier to dwell on personalities than on the real, hard to cope with, issues.

Such is the case with Tom Hughes. The myriad of details involving Tom's untimely departure are really of no great significance. The underlying problems, however, are.

The Hilltop News has undertaken the task of communica- tion between students, faculty and administration. Unfortunately, this is the only concrete link In our chain of command. It's problems are delay and the pressure to say the right thing ... the fair thing. Much of the student opinion and thought, however, does not belong on these pages. It must have another outlet, one which Is more direct, with no middlemen. It is time that we broke down our real or apparent "wall" and face the administra- tion as "people to people". If our gripes are real and we are given the proper setting, with a guarantee of no retaliation, we should be able to sensibly and maturely teU the administration what is on our collective mind. If we can't do this, and muff the chance with trivia, the list of "mystery letters" will grow and grow^MGC)

Letters to the Editor Opinions expressed In letters

to the editor do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the HTN staff.

EDITOR: We were never more shocked

than when we had to come to the abrupt realization of how the administration is really running this school. LaGrange College Is supposed to be a "Christian School" but past and present ex- periences have shown us dif- ferently. A college should aid in developing a person's abilities. But when a person with true leadership qualities and above average capabilities begins to be

recognized by the students and faculty, he is crushed by the ad- ministration if he falls to ad- here to their specific viewpoint. Is this school so narrow- minded that everyone here must conform to the administration's way of thinking?

On a small campus, rules must be obeyed, but since when is freedom of speech, thought, and the press against the rules.

We would advise every per- son who wishes to remain here to remember the following:

1. Never question anything • - even in your own mind.

2. Never speak, think, or write, continued on next page.............

Smoking rule

needs change By JOHN CLERKE

The time has come when we should take a close look at those rules which daily in- fluence our actions and the actions of our fellow students. In this column I will discuss the rule concerning where our female students may smoke.

It is a weU known fact that a majority, or at least a very large minority, of the girls on this campus smoke. I feel that since times have changed the rule concerning where girls can smoke should be changed to keep In step with the chan- ged atmosphere of the campus.

It is my recommendation that girls be permitted to smoke In the student center if they so desire.

The purpose of the student center should be a place for student relaxation and pleasure. I cannot see how these ends can be fully accomplished if our ladles must retire to their rooms to enjoy a common pleasure as If it were something to be ashamed of. This Is not to say that the rule should be liberalized to the point of opening up the whole campus for smoking, for this would be as big a mistake as the present rule.

I cannot see how this change would In any way hurt the coU- ege. Rather, I feel this would Indicate a more realistic view of the campus situation. This should not be, and is not a moral issue, but merely an issue of judgement Should LaGrange coeds be allowed to enjoy this common and uneventful pleas- ure In their student center?

It seems to me that this is at least their right, and as such should not be denied them.

Campus elections BY NICK FLASKAY

Campus-wide elections on the LC campus have nearly all the features any other elections have except one •- they are not by a long shot campus or wide. The number of students who vote In campus-wide elections, except- ing SGA elections, amounts to perhaps one - third of the stu- dents enrolled at LC. This Is probably due to the fact that two-thirds of the students do not know that there is an election going on. This in its turn is pro- bably due to the fact that if a student does not happen to hang around in the student center he does not know that there is some- one sitting behind one of the tables with a ballot box, and an insigni- ficant sign which says to vote.

Even if the table and the ballot box and the sign are discovered by a student (not likely because of the crowd hanging around) its a cinch that he will not know who is running against who, or what particular organization is having elections, what for, etc. . .This situation could be corrected by a minimum of effort if, for example the SGA were to coordinate all elections. This way, all elections in a quar- ter could be held in the same manner'. To insure that all stu- dents know about the elections, they could be announced ahead of time, inlcuding a list of candi- dates and offices they are runn- ing for. The poUs could be kept open longer, or better yet, ballots could be given out before chapel, marked and returned after chapel, together with the chapel cards.

Better elections would cer- tainly lead to good representa- tion and eliminate a lot of grumbling and complaining.

Stddent of the week

Rose looks to stage career Rosemary Neely, a sophomore

Speech and Drama major from Pine Mountain, Georgia, has been selected Student of the Week by the HTN staff.

"The Rose" has been an ac- tive member of the college com- munity since she entered LC. Playgoers have seen her in "Dea- th of a Salesman," "School for Husbands," Bye, Bye Birdie," "Royal Gambit," and she Is now rehearsing for the lead role In "Once Upon a Mattress."

Rosie's sorority affiliation is Alpha Kappa Theta. She Is a member of the Curtain Raisers, and the drama honor fraternity, Alpha Psi Omega.

We asked Rosemary how she liked cafeteria food, and she replied, "Don't ask me anything about cafeteria food."

The Sophomore May Court re- presentative said she was ma- joring in Speech and Drama, "be- cause I hope to be an actress someday. I U*tsg LC is most fortunate in having such expe- rienced and capable professors as Dr. Estes and Miss McKay. My major has helped me tre- mendously, for Instance; in my work last summer with unioniz- ed professionals."

About the campus bookstore, Rosemary said, "I never buy anything In the bookstore. I al- ways go to Buy-Wise."

When asked about assembly programs, commented that, "It would seem that almost anyone would be a better speaker than some of the 'cotton Inspectors' who have addressed us this year. The last three programs, in- cluding REW have been excellent. I only hope that we have seen the last of the 'cotton Inspec- tor" variety."

This summer Rosemary plans to do summer stock work In Pine Mountain or in St. Augus- tine, Fla.

THE REAL "PIED PIPERS"

The Editor: Happiness Is trying to make

everyone like you. Happiness is knowing your many faults. Happi- ness is forgiveness of the faults of everyone else. Happiness Is doing more than is required of us, and feeling proud. Happiness is finding the thirty-five cents not spent on cancer- sticks. Happi- ness is better breath and clean- er teeth. Happiness is a candy bar. Happiness Is a refreshing Fresca on a warm afternoon. Happiness is the warmth of friendship on a cool afternoon. Happiness is an electric blanket on a cold afternoon. Happiness is decency any afternoon. Happi- ness is honest effort. Happiness is gratefulness. Happiness is thankfulness for whatever food we are fortunate not to have to beg for.

Happiness is a tolerant book- store. Happiness is the face of wealth leaving the bookstore and fewer trips to the county line. Happiness is Saturday morning without a headache. Happiness Is no reason Friday night for a Saturday and Sunday morning headache. Happiness Is attending Vespers with reverence. Happi- ness is respect for the worship of God. Happiness is repaying the great debt we owe God.

Happiness is the tolerant speaker who forgives inconsider- ate listeners. Happiness is rem- embering that God created all wildlife. Happiness is remem-

bering that God created us. Hap- piness was once the Speech and Drama Department. Happiness is the remembrance of those good old days of justice, fair play and consideration. Happiness is bron- chitis in the Speech and Drama Department. Happiness is the "face-saving" competence of the Music Department.

Happiness be with those who have needlessly lost their lives on the highways because of the carelessness of those who try In vain to find happiness at the "county line". Happiness is pre- serving the few hidden bits of decency left in the "New" Hill- top News. Happiness is discard- ing the rest of the filthy sacri- legious (sic) trash found in this so called school publication.

Larry Joe Kinsman

Ed: Are you for real, New Yorker?

Editor: This letter pertains to a letter

printed in last week's paper from Larry Kinsman.

The "Passion Play" which he condemned was a satire pointed toward mandatory cha- pel attendance, not a sham against Christ, and most cer- tainly not a group of "Hebrews Inc." making a mockery of Jesus Christ.

The students who put this play on asked a certain Jewish student to take part, which he did. If this Is Mr. Kinsman's Idea of "Hebrews Inc.", I am most curious to know who gave him the authority to sit In judgement as such a narrow- minded bigot. I do not app- reciate having my faith or beliefs criticized, and further- more if Kinsman is going to be so trivial as to call his fellow students Infidels, I feel It my duty to stand up for

them, as well as for myself. More than a majority of the

student body is finding the "new" Hilltop News a much needed improvement. It has changed from an aU-serious, dry, and dull publication, to an exceUently written paper which combines news with humor.

Since you obviously have no sense of humor, I suggest that you stop reading the Hilltop News.

Pi Delts ahead 3-0 SEASON Last week, Pi Delta Kappa won

two more games to bring their season record to 3-0.

The Delts posted their second victory with an 8-3 win over Ga- mma Phi Alpha. Both teams had 10 hits, but Pi Delt's defense was the deciding factor. The Goblins only trailed 4-3 going into the seventh inning, but in the seventh, Pi Delt exploded for four runs on three hits.

The third win for Pi Delt was a 15-2 romp over the Independents to only four hits and holding the Independents to only four hits. Three home runs were hit during the game, twobyTomDuckettand one by Larry Horton.

Jackie Hinton was the most outstanding defensive player in both games. Jackie plays third base and guards his position like a pro.

Braves scalp tennis team The West Georgia tennis team

traveled to the LaGrange courts on Vernon Street last Tuesday afternoon.

The Carrollton team had pre- viously defeated the Panthers by a score of 7-1 at West Georgia on Thursday, March 31st.

Despite the absence of the Panther's number one player, Neal "The Hook" Morttan who was laid out because of aching wisdom teeth, the team played well. But unfortunately the Pan- ther netters are still having some difficulty in finding a winning combination as once again they m?t defeat, 8-1.

Buddy McTureous was the Pan- ther high spot as he won in the number four position, by defeat- ing Jon Niemeyer in straight sets, 6-4, 8-6. ^^^

Enrollment up continued from page 1

Students will no longer be en- rolled in student teaching for spring quarter, so students who are planning to enter the teacher certificate program must plan their schedules very carefully with their advisors.

Advisors and students should be very cautious for those stu- dents who are potential August and December graduates. At the time of advance registration for summer and fall quarters, faculty advisors should submit in writ- ing on forms provided by the Academic Dean's Office a state- ment that each potential gra- duate has met the major require- ments, provided the work for the quarter (or quarters) is satis- factory.

Students must file an applica- tion for a degree in the Acade- mic Dean's Office on dates de- signated in the school calendar. Failure to apply for graduation will result in a quarter's delay in graduation.

INVITATION We cordially invite the ladies of La-

Grange College to come in and have your ha.r done by the experts. How about coming in and gettingvthe best hair-do in town for May Day.
