May Court Readies Tuesday, April 27, 1965

"May Day - 1965" will fea- ture an honors program, the for- mal opening of the new admin- istration building, the crown- ing of the May Queen and step- singing competition.

Hundreds of parents and alumni are expected to visit the campus.

Seniors Show

Current Work Several works of senior art

majors Suzanne Kersey and Cheryl Mahaffey are currently hanging in the Hawkes Building Art Gallery. This senior art show opened Sunday afternoon and will hang through May 6.

The dominant tone of the works is semi-abstract. The subjects are realistic, but their presentation is not.

The most striking difference in the two artists' work is the color contrasts. Miss Kersey uses pastel or neutral colors consistently, while Miss Ma- haffey employs color full strength, with a bold and vivid effect.

It is now an optional choice for current seniors, such a showing will hereafter be required of all senior art majors before their graduation.

Lowery Tillison of Smyrna, president of the Student Govern- ment, said that Dr. Michael H. Mescon of Atlanta, professor of management and chairman of that department at Georgia State College, will speak at the academic and leadership reco- gnition program at 10:30 a.m.

The completely renovated ad- ministration building, the former Banks Library, has been named for the college's nine- teenth president, the late Hu- bert T. Quillian.

The Quillian Building will be formally opened from 1:30p.m., to 3 p.m. for visitors to see the offices of the president, academic dean, business manager, registrar, and admissions director.

At 3 p.m. May Queen Judy McKoon of Columbus will be crowned, and she and her court honored by the annual step-singing.

Climaxing the day's festivities will be the May DajDance1

beginning at 8 p.m. in the college gymnasium.

Tillison said that registration by_ parents, alumni, and the visitors will begin at 9:30 a.m. on the campus quadrangle. The parents are invited to bring a picnic lunch and spread it,along with the food of other families, in the dining hall at 12 noon.

Previous Rules LC Exchange Student Attends Rotary Retreat

Sixteen SGA members re-

treated to "Fellowship Lake" last Saturday to discuss, amend and change rules of college re- gulations for students.

"We tried to think constant- ly about the students and their wishes and needs, as well as what's best for the college" said Mike McAffee, men's vice president for 1965-66.

Several topics were dis- cussed at length in hopes of acti- vating changes in some of the rules. Drinking off campus and appropriate times and places for women students to wear sports clothes were the key subjects.

Some old rules were changed for clarity. Boys are no longer allowed in Turner sun-bathing area. The previous rule stated that men students could not loiter in this area.

The rule concerning freshmen girls spending the night with upperclassmen was also clarified. Freshmen girls who are spending the night with upperclassmen must keep their freshmen hours. They may not assume upper class privileges.

The students began their retreat with a cold buffet supper Thursday evening and returned to their respective campuses during the day Sunday. Friday the students went to Thomas- ville where they attended the annual Rose Show parade and Festivities during the morning and then traveled back to Pelham by noon in time for the Pelham Rotary luncheon.

Music Program Scheduled For Chapel Service

ELLYN ADAMS A most unusual treat is slat-

ed for this Wednesday's Chapel program-the Concert Choir of the East Depot High School in LaGrange will present a program of music. Dr. ToombsKay says it will be a "program none of our students will want to miss."

The choir, under the direction of Miss Yvonne Wright, consists of a mixed chorus, an all-state mixed chorus, a female ensemble, and solos by Miss Wright. The program will be composed of both sacred and secular music.

Miss Wright, who has recently auditioned for the Metropo- litan Opera, has led her choir on to score many honors in state chorus competition.

S Confetti...

BY MIKE CHRISTENSEN

Once, in the dark, dank dep- ths of Broad street dormitory there lived three machines. There were two happy coke machines with milk dipenser between them. I visited this jovial family many times and all seemed to be going smooth- ly until one gray day I approach- ed their habitat and found,much to my sorrow, that someone had disemboweled the milk machine. There it sat with its two little buckets hanging out, its face plastered with notes pro- claiming its depts to the world.

Alas, dear friend, there is now a cavity in the room., the milk machine has gone on to greener pastures where may- be its Meadow Gold orange drink flows for subway tokens. The machine's ultimate fate doesn't really matter in the eyes of' the students. What matters Is, what do we now put on our cereal in the morning when we've missed breakfast ... Sprite?

Ah, yes it is de truth that afta a coupla cups of tea, one might not realish that there are doors leadin' outa Manget and one might be inclined ta walk tnrough one a dem .. zat what happen' over der? At least that is The report to this desk ..

oomeone really did try to gain access to our humble classroom building without the use of his hands .. or was it trying to get out?

Now we dip into the vast file of trivia and extract this tidbit of matter for your further edification. I recently re-. cieved, courtesy of our dedicated postman, a letter from Alabaster State Mining and Mac- hine Tool College . The contents of the envelope, aside from the usual iron fillings, was a letter stating that the college had begun a program called HELP which has been designed to send field workers to colleges and universities across the nation in need of aid. These workers, the letter went on to say, would work with students and attempt to bring them out of their apathe- tic states into the "sunshine of intellectual betterment." The letter was fine, in fact just another Peace Corps or Vista re- cruiting letter, until I arrived at the last paragraph which end- ed with the words: "Take heart, HELP is on the way!" Needless to say, I fired off and indignant reply and went off to take a nap -- why the audacity of that guy!

Student Apathy

Dangerous To

College Years BY NOEL BROWN

Probably the gravest problem facing American institu- tions of higher learning today is the problem of student apathy.

An understanding of the causes and results of this mounting sociological problem is essential to locating a posi- tive approach in attacking student apathy.

Apathy has extended beyond the college campus to become a problem of major propor- tion in the American system.

Since college graduates are becoming an increasing per- centage of the population, the eradication of apathy can probably be more effectively ini- tiated on the campus.

College apathy can be traced to two major areas.

Students are either too in- volved with personal interest to care what is happening or students are too uninvolved and lack knowledge and interest in anything.

Academic pressure has become so intense that the student wishing to excell in the classroom must be dedicated to study and neglect all other in- terests.

Dedication to study is fine but the result is the student becomes so narrow and limit- ed in interest that he functions as a machine and loses indi- vidual idenity-such is apathy.

On the other extreme, students become so uninvolved and uninterested with school and life that they live as animals eat- ing and sleeping.

Unfortunately, the average student does not fit into the ed- ucational structure today. He is a part of one of the above ex- tremes.

This editorial points out dif- ferent views of apathy to per- haps stimulate LaGrange Col- lege students to ponder the dan- gers of apathy in his particular relation to this institution.

EDITOR'S NOTE: The pro- ceeding editorial was submit- ted to The Hilltop News at the invitation of the editor. Noel Brown, a recent graduate of West Georgia College, was the editor of the West Georgian last year and is presently the City News Editor and Sports Editor of The LaGrange Daily News.

McLean Receives Engagements Head The Hilltop News Teesday, April 27, 1965 Page 3

Various Awards For Art Work

An exhibition of art by La- Grange College artist-professor Jim McLean will open Sun- day at the National Bank of Athens.

McLean was awarded the one- man exhibition in Athens during the 34th Annual Exhibition of the Association of Georgia Artists last November.

James Johnson Sweeney, distinguished critic and mus- eum director of Houston, Texas,

se ected a McLean collagraph. "Vestige I," as one of four best works in the exhibition.

McLean's prize was the opportunity to have a show at the Athens bank. Opening Sunday, the exhibition will continue to June 4.

A member of the LC art faculty since 1963, McLean is now head of the department. Agrad- uate of Southwestern Louisiana University, he earned a Master of Fine Arts degree at Tulane University.

In recent weeks McLean has had one-man shows at Georgia State College, Georgia Womans College and Tulane University Center in New Orleans.

His "Vestige I," for which he is being honored in Athens, has been accepted for exhibition in four national art shows this year. These are: Society of American Graphic Artists Show in New York City, North- west Printmakers International in Portland and Seattle, Wichita Art Association National Draw- ing and Print Show, and Ultimate Concerns National Print and Drawing Show at Ohio Uni- versity.

Another McLean print, entitl- ed "Rockscape," has also received recent attention. It will be featured in this year's edition of "Prize-Winning Graphics," an Allied Publication. It also has been awarded the Olivet (Mich.) College print collection purchase award and will become a part of the college's per- manent collection.
