Henry Answers Republican Cut

They Are At Work There are those of us who keep saying that the

apathy here at L/C and everywhere else must be washed away with a flood of enthusiasm for any- thing we can find to be enthusiastic about. We want the great crowd of people to rise up in a body and be concerned for the welfare of the world, our coun- try, our respective states, our hometowns, and our campus.

Eighteenth-century England, like every other time, probably had this desire. Look back to that time and name the great men, those who shaped the gov- ernment, literature, religion and many other of the important facets of life. Among them, at the top of the list are six men who gathered in a coffee shop every day to discuss their interests and the things that were vital to their day. Men like Samuel John- son, James Boswell.

Where are our coffee-shop philosophers? They are diligently seeking the answers to our problems while we sit idly wondering what to do about the problem of apathy.

What About That Yelling? "My group looks like a bunch of knots on logs,"

wailed one cheerleader at Saturday night's game with Alabama College. "I think they all took tran- quilizers before they came," she moaned.

Other sections appeared more lively, but none of the spectators were consistent in their reactions to the play on the floor. The students seemed to cheer in shifts, one at a time.

That's better than being a knot on a log.

0 Say Can You Sing? There are times in the life of every college stu-

dent when he should know the words of his school's Alma Mater. Here are ours.

Hail to thee, our Alma Ma'ter, Guardian of our days;

For thy spirit never failing We will sing thy praise.

High aloft we hold thy banner, Ever loyal, true;

And to thee, our Alma Mater, We our pledge renew-

In thy mighty groves of learning Wisdom's path we've sought;

High upon thy lofty hilltop visions have been wrought

From our hearts we sing the chorus Time shall never change.

Hail to thee, our Alma Mater Hail to thee, LaGrange-

It's Always A Headache BY CASSIE HERNDON

The existence and functioning of an institution of higher learn- ing brings with it certain neces- sary evils. One of these is the process of registering students for the courses of instruction offered at the college or uni- versity.

LaGrange College is much like other schools its size in many ways. She has a fairly close student body and the in- dividual here has some sense of personal worth as opposed to the impersonality attributed to larger schools.

Apparently in an effort to in- crease understanding and com- munication between the stu- dents and the faculty and ad- ministration, one proposal was to check each student's record personally as he went through the registration line to make sure that he was taking what is considered good for him. The backers of this idea didn't know what they were asking for.

"Certainly," understated one administrator, "those who plan- ned it didn't anticipate that much trouble.

The main complaints con- cerning this past pre-registra- tion session are summed up in a four letter word that this, paper is not free to print in expressing sentiments.

It seems to us that trouble was caused by several things; here i$ a partial list: 1. Line cutting 2. Classes closing 3. Crowding in the hall 4. The Longest Wait.

At the height of the confusion, one official lost lost his tem- per. Said one student, "He (created his own trouble." Others backed up the adminis- trator, attacking the students as high-schoolish and irrespon- sible.

Blame for the confusion in the hall was placed on "a small number of students" who "take advantage of this situation.

Another official stated, "Most students were patient and understanding. They under stand pressure.

From the 509 persons regis- tered last Tuesday there would be 509 different remarks con- cerning it. A total-picture poll most likely would reveal two distinct sides on the matter- the student side and the ad- ministration side.

The total picture is im- portant. But where is the ele- ment of personality and close- ness supposedly characteristic of LC? It is among the faculty and students who looked quick- ly past a day of trouble gone by to the time when it could oc- cur again, and offered sug- gestions for improvement rather than harping about the trouble and looking for some- one to blame.

Some of the ideas offered were:

1. Register seniors on a se- parate day.

2. Have seniors come indi- vidually within a week's time to the registrar's office.

3. Give more people authority to handle the checking of stu- dent's records and class cards.

4. Have a class schedule posted on a board around the registration room with a "run- ner" (as on election nights) to keep it up to the minute with information about class places.

5. Have the procedure up- stairs in the gym to allow more space.

There are many other sug-

gestions floating around the campus. Those responsible for the registration process would do weU to study them all before another registration times comes along and catches them off guard.

People given any part of the blame for the trouble should re-examine their behavior and attitudes before they venture into another line of any sort.

Objectivity in such examina- tion is always difficult, but studying oneself sometimes helps in seeing the other side of the'question.

The Hilltop News staff will Imeet tonight at 6 p.m. in the [newsroom. All staff members |are requested to be there on Itime.

The business staff will not meet this week. After the holi- days the regular meeting will be Wednesday evening at 6:30.

A ray of light ... is the image of the Church changing? Are people coming back as so many say they are, will the cobwebs on the souls of men be brushed away? "If we walk in the light, as He is in the light..." Where will you walk?

Her Art Is SomethingTo Think About

BY JOHN OLD Henry Iler's art exhibit Is

probably the most controver- sial art collection ever shown at LaGrange.

His work with combined tech- niques turned out very well and proved excitingly different. In one work (his paintings are un- titled) he has incorporated a wire sculpture and a painting creating a most interesting three - dimensional. In another he placed glass several inches in front of the painting and used that surface for producing an overlapping design, almost, what could be called, "3-D- ism".

Mr. Iler's abstracts seem, through color and massive stroke, bright and alive, full of movement. Some are the re- lations of shapes to shapes; as he said "organic".

His "pop-art" is interesting but seems to lack a clear mes- sage. Perhaps Mr. Her believes a painting reads for whoever reads it. The work that con- sists of a white background with thorn-like spikes piercing through it and a crimson flood dripping down might be con- veying the suffering of Christ or mankind. However, this is just the opinion of one "read- er." In fact Mr. Her may not ever classify this particular work as "pop", if this is so, the writer apologizes, but is at a loss to describe it any other way. His other "pop" work of a chest-of - drawers was equal- ly perplexing in meaning and specie

Exam Procedure Outlined By Dean

Patrick Honored For Poetry "Confession," a poem by Se-

nior "Walter (Bucky) Patrick, has been selected by the Na- tional Poetry Press to be pub- lished in the Annual Anthology of College Poetry.

The Anthology, says the NPP, "is a compilation of the fi- nest poetry written by the col- lege men and women of Ameri- ca, representing every state in the country.

Patrick's work was chosen from "many thousands of manu- scripts submitted" to the NPP, and will appear in the next edition to be published.

The author transferred to La- Grange in 1963 from Reinhardt College. He also attended Lips- comb College. His major is re- ligion and philosophy and he is an ordained minister in The Methodist Church.

CONFESSION I must admit that I have always yearned

To lift the stones that others left unturned To search in honest truth in hope to find

A deeper truth not held with in the mind To drink all life and save my empty cup.

To do my best by never giving up......

So deep it is my search must needs to start Within the heavens or else the human heart.

And if my goal I have not reached at death, Let it be known that in my final breath

My search goes on....though some may say I failed, I can but freer search with soul unveiled.

7. If final examinations are given, they must be given at the scheduled times listed below.

8. Final grades must not be given out by individual in- structors. AU grades should be turned in to the Registrar's Office within 48 hours after final examination.

9. No incomplete grade may be turned in for a course ex- cept with an excuse acceptable to the instructor and the Aca- demic Dean before the final exam is given for the course.

10. When you have completed your last examination, check out on the "check - out" sheet in your dormitory if you are a boarding student. If you do not plan to return for the Winter Quarter (boarding and local stu- dents), you should get a "Stu- dent's Clearance Form" from the Registrar's Office after exams begin and take this to the proper persons for final clearnace. The College wiU withhold all records of students who do not clear properly. A fine of $3.00 must be paid by all who fail to clear properly before transcripts can be issued.

11. This schedule has been arranged in such a manner that in most cases one examination may be given in courses where there are multiple sections. Individual instructors will determine whether there wiU be a joint exam or a separate exam for their sections. If separate exams are given for courses designated below, they should not be given by period but according to the time speci- fied in this schedule. The Bailey Room, Manget 205, and the Simpson Room have been de- signated as the rooms for the examinations if several sectins are together. If separate examinations are given, the re- gular classroom for the course should be used.

In The World Of Entertainment

BiUie, played by Patty Duke, Is a teenage tomboy who can run faster and jump higher than any of the boys in school.

Her talents win her a berth on the boystraek team. This naturally gives her boyfriend, played by Warren Berlinzer, an inferiority complex.

Her exploits also annoy her father, Jim Backus, who is running for mayor on a "male supremacy" platform.

This family comedy owes most of its charm to its per- formers, especially Patty Duke who is as cute and appealing as always and makes her sing- ing debut in this one, too.

It's a pleasant bit of non- sense, although the genuinely talented Miss Duke's depth, range and sensitivity are de- finitely wasted.

Panthers Fall To Alabama Lose Season Opener

BY BILL ENGLAND Sports Editor

The LaGrange College Panth- ers dropped the opening game of their 1965-66 campaign 64-50 here Saturday night to the Fal- cons from Alabama College.

The cold shooting Panthers, hitting only 35.0 percent of their field shots lost the lead with 3:00 left in the first half and were never in the ball game after that.

Alabama took an early lead,

only to have the Panthers take over and go ahead by seven points with 9:15 left in the first stanza.

Senior Paul Kellogg, Alaba- ma's ace forward, put the Fal- cons on top with little over three minutes to play in the

half. The Falcons returned after

intermission to increase their lead by hitting their first eight shots of the second half.

Junior center Joe Phillips was the outstanding player for the home-standing Panthers as he hit 11 points and brought down 16 rebounds.

The big 6' 4" post man did all his work in the second half due to a sustaining a cut above the eye in the opening minutes. He was forced to leave action

for the rest of the half. LC's All-American candida-

te, forward Hugh Corless was the high point man of the nigh! with 17 markers.

News Briefs Students expecting to grad-

uate in March should see their advisers about the certificat- ion forms that must be turned in to the office of the Academic Dean by the end of fall quart- er; these forms must be com- pleted and signed before the beginning of winter quarter so diplomas can be ordered.

Work has already begun on Manget renovations. It will de- finately be completed before spring quarter.

Gamma Phi Alpha Fraternity will keep the student center clean this week.
