"Che Hilltop Bttos EDITORIALS

The Hilltop News is a student-published campus newspaper whose sole purpose is the informing of the student body and faculty of campus news. Being a student publication, the News is directed towards the center of reader interest, those events which are informative and interesting to the students.

The Hilltop News is the first to realize that everything is not like it should be at LaGrange Col- lege, both with students and faculty. The Editors feel that honest criticism many times will result in re- form. Therefore, the editorial policy of the News is comment, praise or criticism of the events and happenings on campus.

The editors welcome any letters from students or faculty. A regular letters-to-the-editor column will be run, and everyone is urged to participate. Letters should be addressed to "The Editors, The Hilltop News," and dropped in the campus mail.

The success or failure of any enterprise is de- pendent upon the support of the majority. If the students will help make the Hilltop News a better paper, the Hilltop News will help make LaGrange College a better place to get an education.

THE EDITORS

This quarter, we've had our eyes and ears open to the casual, improptu bits of conversation dotting the campus. This is the only way to know what at- titudes and ideas really prevail among the student body. One of the most serious topics seems to be the pros and cons of "mandatory chapel attendance". Why, in a community built not only to educate aca- demically, but also to nurture character and person- ality growth, is chapel attendance not made a choice of the student rather than the administration. We, frankly, were not too sure, but had very little diffi- culty finding someone with the answer. That very willing source of information was our college's presi- dent, Dr. Waights G. Henry.

Dr. Henry explained that, "The purpose of Chapel is to introduce students to religion as an or- ganizing factor in life. A good simile can be drawn be- tween mandatory chapel attendance and mandatory study of any of our academic subjects. Both have been proven by time and experience to be essential foundation blocks in building capable, well adjusted members of society."

It seems that what a person does with what he's been exposed to depends largely on the indivi- dual. However, it is clearly the duty of an institution of higher learning to, at least, expose its students to such an "organizing factor."

Priority Says Do It In Callaway Auditorium

BY TOM CASTONA Our Spring play will be pre.

sented in the Callaway Me- morial Auditorium because Dobb's facilities are inade- quate. Both the stage and off- stage provisions are too small and pieces of equipment lay da- maged or broken. I asked Dr. Henry why, in a liberal arts college, better drama facilities aren't provided.

The President explained that funds for such projects are limited and that, in doling out appropriations, school officials must observe a sort of ladder of importance. In other words, a school must have classrooms, a library, dormitories; then, and only then, a stage and au- ditorium. This is easy to un- derstand, and the machinery of such a policy can easily be re- cognized on our campus.

Dr. Henry pointed out that our college's population is growing at the rate of about fifty a year. Where will this lead? Obviously the school must draw the line somewhere,and our saturation point, accord- ing to the president, is set at 750 students. This means that because of economic limita- tions, LC will never be more than about 55 per cent larger than it is today. This is a vital consideration in drawing up plans for new buildings and in deciding what the next addi- tion should be.

It was a difficult thing to do- to watch Lyndon B.Johnson take his oath of office and not re- member the inaguration of John F. Kennedy. But I tried. I fail- ed.

I remembered the Bostonian issuing his challenges and his goals to an American that had suddenly become young and youthful. Then I heard the Texas drawl praying for liberty and union in an America that had been sobered suddenly and had grown old quickly.

Today I could not look to the future; I was caught in the memories of the past.

The television camera seem- ed to share my thoughts. It took me to a hill in Arlington Cemetery, but it showed me, also, a flag still flying in the wind.

If You Have

Lost Anything

Look For It! Moanings can be heard pe-

riodically, in fact, like clock- work over some students' lost gloves, pen, or what have you. All too often the victim doesn't have the slighest idea how to recover his loss. Well, for those frustrated individuals, there's a ray of hope. Anyone may visit the schools' lost and found department, housed in

Dean Sullivan's office, during regular business hours.

Last year, there was such an accumulation of paraphernalia that the entire lot was put up for auction (proceeds of which went for Smith Hall's tele- vision). It's up to you. Check for those lost items, or buy them later at an auction.

Library Receives Funds For Microfilm

A grant for library materials has been awarded to LaGrange College's William and Evelyn « Banks Library by the Associa- tion of College and Research Libraries.

Mrs. Irene W. Melson, col- lege librarian, announced the gift of $750 awarded by the committee on grants of the Association of College and Re- search Libraries, a division of the American Library Asso- ciation.

The local college library is one of 162 selected from among 547 applicants in the United Sta- tes to receive the grants.

In acknowledging the receipt of the grant, Mrs. Melson said that the funds will be used to purchase the volumes necess- ary to complete the college's file of The New York Times Index from 1913 to the present.

Seniors Practice

Future Vocation Twenty . one LaGrange Col-'

lege seniors planning for ca- reers in education are engaged this quarter in student teaching, the climax of their collegiate preparation for the profession.

The men and women will be spending approximately eight weeks under the direction of experienced and certified tea- chers in LaGrange and Atlanta, Gradually, they will take on more and more teaching res- ponsibilites.

The student teaching program is under the direction of Dr. W. M. Shackelford, professor of education and chairman of the college's Education Divi- sion. He is also co-ordinator of the program in secondary education.

Dr. Sara M. Davis, associate, professor of education, is co- ordinator of the elementary ed- ucation program, which in- volves about half the partici- pants.

A major in elementary ed- ucation was established here in 1962. This year, for the first time , the trend towards more secondary education stu- dents has been reversed and comes closer to meeting exist- ing needs, according to Dr. Shackelford.

Five LaGrange College music education majors are doing their student teaching in At- lanta. The students are Rente Crooms of Cochran, Kathryn Merritt of Columbus, Judy Ro- bertson of LaGrange, Judy Whit- ing of Macon, and Jane Yar- brough of Waycross.

All other student teach- ers this quarter are in the La- Grange public schools. They are Carole Clonts of Atlanta, Iris Duncan of Atlanta, Diane Efurd of Columbus, Mildred Eidson of Atlanta, Nancy Ham- mett of Hogansville, Sharon Waller of Atlanta, RobertWhel- chel of Chickamauga, and Ted Alford of LaGrange.

At Cannon Street Elemen- tary School the student teachers are Judy Hayes of Ft. Laudei- dale, Fla., Carol Hodges of Al- bany, and Delores Ramey of Macon.

Assigned to be a student tea- cher at Dawson Street Elemen- tary School is Beth Leonard of Valdosta.

Student teachers at Harwell Avenue Elementary School are Mrs. Barbara Starr Owen of Hogansville, Peggy Pease of Columbus, Barbara Smith of Palmetto, and Miss Lane Tullis of Rome.

"We applied for this grant of $750, with the understanding that the library will complete the project by the summer of 1966," Mrs. Melson said.

The LaGrange College libra- rian said, "We are also trying to purchase back files of the microfilm edition of The New York Times."

The ACRL grants program was initiated in 1955 and has been financed since by contri- butions from a number of com- panies, corporations, and foundations.

An American Library Asso- ciation official said the grants program is directed toward im- proving the quality of library service to higher education th- rough aid in obtaining the most modern teaching and learning materials.

Mrs. Melson said that La- Grange College also received two such grants in 1959. They were used to purchase book dis- play racks and business and economics books.

LC Alumni Launch Endowment Drive

LaGrange College alumni are presently launching their larg- est Living Endowment Fund dr- ive in the history of the non- tax-supported institution.

Mrs. Chrystal Carley Starr of Atlanta, alumni association president, announced today that a goal of $25,000 in alumni gifts has been set for this year.

Another goal of 1,460 contri- butors--which would also set a record--has been establish- ed.

Purpose of the Living Endow- ment Fund, according to Mrs. Starr, is to make available on a regular annual basis, a sub- stantial sum of money to be used for developing the col- lege's program and facilities.

During the last fiscal year, a record-setting total of 700 alumni gave $12,639 to the col- lege for Living Endowment and various campus projects.

The Rev. John Horton of Col-' umbus, a vice president of the alumni association, will direct the funds campaign. He said the drive has been organized in four stages.

Miss Stella Bradfield of La- Grange is chairman of a cam- paign currently underway for alumni who will give $100. or more. Such contributors will be designated, as in the past, as Century Club members.

Baptist Posts

Change Hands BY RICHARD SCH LEU TER

Contrary to the usual proce- dure of electing officers in Spring Quarter, the BaptistStu- dent Union has already elected a part of it's executive council for 1965-'66.

The early vote was ne- cessitated by an overload on the retiring president,who also holds the president's chair in another organization. M embers of the group decided to make the change-over now instead of waiting a few more weeks.

The previous officers were Curtis Chapman, president;Dei- gie Parker, vice president; Linda Long, secretary;Barbara Starr Owen, treasurer; Janice Brown, publicity chairmanjJune Johnson, music chairman; and Ronald Cockroft, B.S.U. Coor- dinator.

Janice Brown, Katrina Pitt- man, John Clerke, and Ronald Cockroft now hold the first four posts, respectively. The offices of second vice presi- dent, publicfry' chairman, and B.S.U. coordinator have not yet . been filled.

The co-ordinators in each alumni class will contact their classmates by direct mail in mid-February, asking for their annual gifts to the college.

Following up on the funds campaign slogan, "25 in '65," certain alumni will be invited in April to give at least $25 to the Living Endowment. They will become members of the $25 Club.

And then in April, telethons will be conducted in all cities where there are local alumni clubs. This contact with all alumni who have not previou- sly given to the 1965 drive will be directed by the individual club presidents.

To kick off the campaign, a meeting of class co-ordinators, club presidents and national officers is planned in Atlanta on Sunday, Jan. 24. It is sched- uled at 3 p.m. in the Glenn Memorial Methodist Church Sunday School Building, Room 23.

Gamma Phi Alpha has one win and one loss while Sigma Nu Pi has two loses. Tonight, Pi Delt will be going against Sigma Nu at 5:45 p.m.

Let me take this opportunity to congratulate all students who have been supporting the Pan- thers.

dosta State Rebels will invade the LC. gym. Let's all give the Panthers that extra some- thing and pounce on Valdosta.

The team seems to be improv- ing with each game. Its best game this season was against West Georgia. T. J. Thompson has really been an asset in the last few games. Hugh Corless continues good performance but has recently been in a scoring "slump." That is, if you con- sider over 19 points per ^ame average as being a "1 Jimp". Hugh has broken the record for the most points scored by a LaGrange player. The previous holder of this position was Jerry Carden with 903 points during three years as a Panther,Hugh now has over 938 points. He will soon own all personal scor- ing records at LaGrange, if his present rate continues.

This Panther has about run out of things to say for now, so until next week, whatever you do - "be a good sport".

The table tennis tournament sponsored by the M.A.A. sponsored by the M.A.A. is now in progress. There are some good fast moving games being played. The winner will soon be decided.

Last week the Panthers de-

feated West Georgia 94—65

and Piedmont 101—75.

Gamma Phi Goblins Fall Again

Last Tuesday Pi Delta Kappa clashed for the second time with the Goblins of Gamma Phi. When the dust cleared from the court, the Pi Delts were on top by nearly a two-to-one margin.

The first half of the contest was very slow, with the Pi Delts' fine defense holding the Goblins to a single field goal, scored by Bubby McTureous, and five points on free shots. Hall time saw the PiDelts ahead 17.7.

The last half of the game went much faster, with Pi Delt's dominating offense netting 26 more points while Gamma Phi managed to tally another 16.

Final score of the lop-sided contest was Pi Delta Kappa 42, Gamma Phi 22.

Box score: Pi Delts' scoring: L. Good-

man 9; J. Nalley 7; N. Mor- gan 6; C. Stevens 7; C. Cor- bett 2; G. Roberts 6; J. Bagge- tt 5.

Other games in the coming week are with Berry College in Rome Wednesday evening and Birmingham • Southern in Ala- bama Monday evening.
