WLFM Plans to Commence Broadcasting Schedule Soon

THE STAFF of WLFM, the Lawrence college radio station, hopes to begin broadcasting Sunday. One of the largest FM stations in the Appleton - Green Bay area, WLFM, 91.1 megacycles, now represents a $100- 000 investment by the college.

W LFM is a non-commer­c ia l, educational station which began broadcasting in 1957. Its entire operation is student supervised from the studios in the m usic-dram a center. The station has openings for m en and women as announcers, engineers and writers.

A m em ber of the National Association of Educational Broadcasters, W LFM plays p r im arily classical and semi- classical m usic , as well as some jazz, folk m usic and Broadway m usica ls; rock *n’ roll is never broadcast.

In this way, W L FM is pro­g ram m ed for the audiophile on cam pus and in the •'ox R iver Valley area, as the s ta ­tion has a rad ius of approxi­m ate ly 60 m iles.

O C CA SIO N A LLY W L F M features specials such as hootenannies, panel discus­sions and other items of c a m ­pus and local interest. D uring the last week of the term , the

station rcbroadcasts fresh­m an studies lectures.

Broadcasting times are 1:30- 10 p .m . Sundays and 4:45-10 p.m . weekdays; there are no broadcasts on Saturday. To obtain a copy of “ Cue Sheet,” the m onthly guide to W 'LFM 's program m ing , send S1.00 to W L F M , “ Cue Sheet” editor.

This station has plans for the future. W ithin the next few years W LFM , under the advisorship of Joseph Hop- fensperger, plans to switch over to m ultip lex in order to broadcast in stereo.

STUDENTS interested in j o i n i n g this organization should contact Barry Collins, station m anager, at the S ig­m a Phi Epsilon house.

Staff meetings are held at 4 p .m . every Monday in the council room of the music- d ram a center. These m eet­

ings are open to prospective m em bers.

Elliott Asks Student Body To Consider Representation

PRESIDENT Steve Elliott called for a re-evaluation of SEC’s existing method of representation at last Monday’s meeting of the Lawrence student governing body.

ELLIOTT felt present representatives hold more loy­alty for their respectivegroups than for the governing body. This results in a frac- tiona lism which E llio t con­siders the shortcom ing of the current representational sys­tem .

E llio tt told the >meeting that the SEC Executive C om m it­tee is com pleting groundwork for a constitutional change designed to im prove repre­sentation.

In o rig inating this change, the com m ittee w ill present a proposal exp la in ing the a l­

ternative methods of repre­sentation : election according to class, dorm itory , on a

Greek - independent basis as it is now or election of repre­sentatives at large.

ELLIO T T also stressed the need to give the freshm an class a c lear picture of S E C ’s role on cam pus. He critic iz­ed the cha irm en of SEC com ­m ittees for their rem arks at a m eeting intended to ac­qua in t new students with

SEC .The SEC president explain­

ed that since every SEC com ­m ittee has arisen from a d i­rect need, com m ittee heads should not have resorted to a justification of their com m it­tees, especially in a deprecia­tory m anner.

M ark Salzm an . a m em ber of the student-faculty com ­m ittee , reported the inv ita ­tiona l open houses w ill be ex­

tended through the next two term s, subject to a student vote. This vote w ill be taken by secret ballot after various m em bers of the Stu - Fac group have explained the policy. If the arrangem ent continues, it w ill be evalua­

ted again.

R IC H A R D G O LD S M I T H,NSA coordinator, told the m eeting about the National Student Association conven­tion. which he attended this sum m er with Law rence’s oth­er delegate, Bruce Bauer.

Goldsm ith mentioned the possibility of coopérât i n g with the Student Non-violent Coordinating com m ittee, a group which operates in the field of race relations. He an ­nounced arrangem ents t o have partic ipants in the re­cent 'march on W ashington discuss the m arch w ith in ter­ested Lawrentians.

In the discussion which fo l­lowed the m eeting ’s general business, alternate represen­tative Gordon Taylor critic iz­ed the state of student affairs.

T A Y LO R felt that SEC was inadequate a n d attributed this inadequacy to backward leadership and student ap a ­thy.

In his opinion, both were results of the Greek system. At the end of his 20-minute presentation, Taylor moved to abolish the Greek system.

After discussion of T ay lor’s rem arks and the m otion, the representative council voted to table the m otion indefin ite­

ly.

In discussion of other m a t­ters, R ick Rapport (Rep., Beta Theta P i) questioned the Honor Council's program and its policy of self-perpet- uation. He also criticized the secrecy which surrounds se­lection of council m em bers, since this secrecy tends to m ake the m em bers less re­sponsible to student opinion

President Cites Criticism From Faculty and Alumni

PRESIDENT Curtis W. Tarr told the Lawrentian Wednesday he has called for a careful re-examination of the question of the invitational open house program at Lawrence. ‘‘If it’s a policy 1 have to defend, I have to find out about it,” he said.

“ My attitude right now is one of inqu iry ,” Tarr stated. “ W hen you approach some­th ing which represents a r a t h e r rad ica l departure from what went on before, however, you naturally ap ­proach it w ith a measure of suspicion.”

Law rence’s new president indicated ho had the interest of Lawrence as an academ ic institution in m ind in ca lling for the re-examination. “ Any­thing that m ight contribute to the decline of intellectual prowess in this institution Is our concern,” ho pointed out.

T A R R ’S m ain reservations

People-to-People Works to Promote International Programs on Campus

LAWRENCE’S former International club has ex­panded its range of activities and has joined 92 other university chapters in the national People-to-People movement. W ith headquarters at the University of Kansas, this non-political, privately financed organiza­tion is the center of a “ com ­

m on sense approach” to in ­ternational understanding.

JO H N DAV IS , local presi­dent of People-to-People, de­scribes the c lub 's a im s as form ing favorable im pres­sions am ong foreign students.

“ International s t u d e n t s from A m erican colleges w ill return to their countries to be a dynam ic force in their own nation ’s developm ent.” he said. “ This is particu larly true of the A frican nations,

where college graduates are scarce.”

‘ ‘They w ill be leaders in shaping their country ’s pol­icies. The impression they form of Am erica could have a serious effect on their fu ­ture ideas.”

“ People - to - People wants the international student to Nee us honestly. The a im of this chapter and its counter­parts in the United States is to gain an understanding, through work and com m on interests, outside the class­room .”

This fall Lawrence sponsor­ed a brother-sister program for the international students on cam pus. An Am erican host welcomed each student and helped to fam iliarize h im with college life.

Film Classic Series To Show 2nd Entry

The second entry 1n the F ilm Classics series is a 1961 French f ilm adapted from a group of tales by Ba lzac ,‘‘The G ir l W ith the Golden Eyes.’ It w ill be shown at 1:30 p .m . and 7:30 p.m . Sunday in Stansbury theater.

The picture is noted for its bold technique and im ag in a ­tive photography. It relates a strange tale of a group of wealthy Parisan m en devot­ed to helping each other at­ta in their own selfish ends.

Newsweek rem arked that the director, Jean-Gabriel Albicocco, “ is not concerned with the obvious kind of de­pravity , but the subtler and m ore general abuse of hu­m an relationships, in which people trifle with each other as playthings and as pets.”

Mari Taniguchi To Present Next Faculty Concert

M ari Taniguchi, Lawrence college assistant professor of m usic, w ill present a voice recital in H arper hall at 4 p.m . Sunday, Oct. 6.

Miss Taniguchi, a soprano, w ill be assisted by p ianist Jam es W. M ing. Lawrence professor of music. Her pro­gram . the second in the sea­son’s faculty series, w ill bo open to the public.

Independents were split ev­enly between the two m ajor candidates, w ith Romney again receiving substantia l support.

One faculty m em ber, how­ever, drew in a fourth box and m arked it “ e rra tic .”

O f those polled, 82 per cent thought the c iv il rights issue would have a pronounced ef­fect on the election. The con­sensus was that Kennedy would lose votes in the South

as a result of his “ harsh­ness,” would lose v o t e s am ong Northern liberals as a result of his “ softness” and would gain votes am ong the

Negroes generally.One faculty m em ber sum ­

med up a common opinion in saying, “ The whole dam n South w ill vote against h im .”

In the mock election one faculty m em ber commented that he was assum ing we m eant “ Jo hn ” Kennedy. An­other in indicating his po liti­cal affilia tion took issue with our boxes m arked Liberal and Conservative and declared him self “ liberal with a lower

Admissions Staff Recruits, Selects New Lawrentians

AS OF TODAY— October 4, 1963— Lawrence col­lege has no clast* of 1968. By the end of next May, it will. The task of assembling next year’s freshmen is a year-round job for Lawrence’s admissions department, headed by Edward J. Roberts.

THE ADMISSIONS depart­m ent's work m ay be roughly divided into two parts». First, it m ust acquaint as m any college-bound seniors as pos­sible with Lawrence; then it

. m ust help decide which of them will be adm itted to the college.

In order to accomplish the first objective, admissions of­ficers are sent out to high schools throughout the north­ern United States. These of­ficers talk to those seniors who have been advised by their guidance counselors to consider Lawrence.

Interested students are in­vited to spend a weekend at Lawrence. At that tim e they have an opportunity to see first-hand the school’s acad­em ic and social life. They are also given an adm issions in ­terview.

THESE interviews are not required for adm issions, but are strongly recommended. The college m ain ta ins an of­fice in Chicago for those stu­dents who are unable to come

to Appleton.This year’s freshman class

contains 359 students. Slight­ly over twice that number ap­plied for admission. In order to select the class, an admis­sions committee, made up of the dean of the college, the dean ol women, the dean of men, the director of admis­sions and four members of the faculty, evaluates each application on a complicated prediction index scale.

Class rank is given a triple weight, while t h e verbal score of the Scholastic A p ti­tude lest has a double value

and the SAT m athem atics section is counted once. The scores m ay range from 12 to 1.

A PRELIMINARY vote is taken on each application. Unless there is a unanimous vote for or against accept­ance. a period of discussion follows and another vote is taken. This tim e the m ajority rules.

The prediction index scores of girls are consistently high­er than those of hoys, but more boys are always select­ed. Special skills in athletics, music or other creative fields will give the edge to a stu­dent over others with similar records. Relatives of Law­rence alumni have a similar advantage.

In a typical year, 92 per cent of freshm an women and 75 per cent of freshman men graduated in the first quarter of their class. One-fifth of the class had relatives who had attended Lawrence. Approxi­mately 40 |>cr cent of the class cam e from Wisconsin. Illinois. M innesota and New York were runners-up in en­rollment.

MOST students listed the school’s reputation, size and location as their reason for choosing Lawrence. Nearly 90 per cent said they became

Interested in L a w r e n c e through some form of a lum n i contact.

S p e c i f i c courses or de­partm ents attracted s o m e students with freshman stud­ies and the Conservatory of Music mentioned most often.

President Overcomes Republican Bias

ITS AN EARLY season for water fights on the Law­rence campus as scores of freshmen gathered behind Plantz hall last Thursday to hold a traditionally springtime water rite. To some of the less fortunate participants, however, the whole affair seemed like a big, black nightmare.

President John F. Kennedy received s t r o n g support

throughout Lawrence’s trad i­tiona lly Repub lican campus in a public opinion poll con­ducted by the Lawrentian last week. If the 1964 presi­dential election were to be held tomorrow by the stu­dents and faculty of Law ­rence, Kennedy would be swept into office against each possible Republican cand i­date.

Kennedy Romney

Results of the opinion poll of Kennedy’s p o p u l a r i t y against the top Republicans are as follows:

% % Kennedy 60 Rockefeller 40 Kennedy 61 Goldwater 39 Kennedy 55 Romney 45 Kennedy 71 Scranton 29

The college’s sentiments are close to those as a nation as a whole. The most recent G a llup poll found Kennedy leading Goldwater 57 percent to 37 per cent with 6 per cent undecided.

Such results are significant in view of the large propor­

tion of Lawrence students who identify themselves with the Republican party.

Republican 42% Democratic 22% Independent 36%

Faculty opinion, however, sharply differed from these figures, with the Democrats holding a 3-1 edge in party preference.

Republican 21% Democratic 64% Independent 15%

S im ila r differences were found in the mock election with m uch stronger support for Kennedy am ong the fac­ulty. Rom ney again topped Republican candidates a l­though his popularity drop­ped 20 per cent from the stu­dent body figures.

Representative SystemInitiation of a re-evaluation of SEC’s representa­

tive basis was made at last Monday’s meeting by Presi­dent Steve Elliott. Presentation was made of four dif­ferent plans of representation and a promise given that these structures should be evaluated by both SEC and the student body.

Possibilities include representation according to living units, according to class, on an at-large basis, or as is the present system, on a Greek-independent basis.

The matter will be discussed and recommendations made by both the executive council and the represen­tative body; but in the end the whole question will be brought before the student body in an all-school vote.

The editorial board welcomes such an examination of the foundation of the student government. Whether or not any actual change is made, the entire student body will have a chance to examine the theory behind the representative system and to voice opinion con­cerning its workings.

From the Ed ito ria l Board

That Haunting ‘Problem’Monday night’s SEC meeting marked the resurrec­

tion of an old slogan and an old issue: Lawrence con­formity and apathy, better known as the “ I^awrence problem.” The “curse of conformity,*' as the charge went Monday, this problem of how to stimulate indivi­duals into extending themselves into new fields and new creative processes has remained a perennial one at Lawrence.

Such a problem emerges from the very nature of college life— from the isolation and necessary concen­tration that surrounds an individual’s purpose in an academic institution. It is by no means an exclusively “ Lawrence” problem, as it is common to all schools with relatively small enrollments. But because the problem is itself insoluable is no reason why its effects cannot be lessened. It is the mark of a good school and a good student body that such an attempt is made.

In a word, the challenge at Lawrence, or at any other college, is one of individual “ involvement”— of a personal commitment of oneself to an endeavor or cause which an individual believes to be important. It is vital to individual maturation that causes the “Law­rence problem” to be a constantly recurring phenom­enon. And it is the very nature of the problem— the individual— that makes its partial solution always pos­sible.

Lawrence Ends Tradition In Naming New Dormitory

“W H O WAS A. A. TREVER?”This question has undoubtedly been asked by many

Lawrentians, especially by the 176 men living in the new Trever hail. A Lawrence graduate and history professor from 1905 until his death in 1040, Dr. Albert Augustus Trever is the ttrstm em ber of this faculty to have a dorm itory nam ed forhim .

HORN IN Chilton. W is., in 1874. Dr. Trever received bus B. A. from I^awrence in 1896. his theology degree from Bos­ton university and his Ph. D. from the University of C h i­cago. He also studied at Halle and Berlin. G erm any .

Before returning to Law­rence in 1905 to teach ancient and la ter m odern European history. Hr. Trever. taught at DePauw university and held pastorates in the W is­consin Methodist conference.

His writings include “ The

History of Greek Econom ic

Thought.’* 1916. and a highly praised two volume work.

“Are you sure you really love me and it’s not your draft board calling?”

“ H istory of Ancient C iv iliza ­tion .”

DOUGLAS M. K N I G H.Tcom m ented on his selection last sum m er. “ I am particu ­larly gratified that the trus­tee com m ittee chose to nam e our newest dorm itory for such a distinguished m em ber of the Lawrence faculty.

Co-eds’ Hours Show

More Liberal TrendThe last 30 years sl-oxvs a

gradual trend to more liberal hours and self-discipline for Lawrence co-eds.

In 1930. for instance, L aw ­rence women were required to be in their dorm s by 7:30 p .m . The absolute latest they could be out was 10:30 p .m . Even in 1950, a ll freshm an women had to be in their dorm itories by 8 p .m . during the first semester. Present- ..iv seniors have 12:00 p.m .

hours.No all-campus dances were

allowed until the early 1930s. No sm oking by women stu­dents was perm itted. Sm ok­ing was still prohibited in 19o0 except at specified times and in designated places.

More recently, w ith in the last three or four years, rules such as hgni out at 11:30 p.m . and beds m ade by 11 every m orning ha»e been

Bavarian Student Observes Strong U.S.-German Amity

ALTHOUGH he feels that the G erm an people are close friends of the United States, W olfram Pistohl. Fu lbright special student at Lawrence, has strong views on some things we could do to im ­prove this relationship. W ol­fram , from Deggendorf, B a ­varia . also thinks that twa m a jo r points in today ’s Ger­m any are DeG au lle ’s actions in the Com m on M arket and the problem of G erm an re­unification.

“AMERICA is the best-lov­ed foreign country in G er­m any today .” says W olfram . ‘ After the second world war, France and Eng land isolated G erm any : Am erica was the first nation that really tried to help us.”

However, endangering this relationship. Wolf feels, is the conduct of American tourists and soldiers in Germany. German people often form a bad impression of Americans because of the insensitivity of our travelers to G e r m a n ideals and customs.

He adds that Germ ans don’t visit the United States as of­ten as our citizens go to G er­m any , so often a G e rm an ’s entire impression of \merica is formed by his contacts with tourists and soldiers.

TURNING to another area of G erm an foreign policy. W olfram discounts r e c e n t press reports of a thaw in the trad itionally frig id relations between France ar.i G er­m any. Student? in W olf’s for­m er school. University of M unich, and m any citizens

dislike DeGaulle because of the French president’s oppo­site n to B r ita in ’s jo in ing the Com m on Market.

DeOau lle ’s opposition to the

strengthening of the Common Market is a blow to German interests because, as W’olf pointed out, the market is Germany’s economic protec­tion against the Eastern bloc of nations.

S p e a k i n g of G erm any ’s strength and its eventual re­un ification , he states. “ We are in the hands of the West­ern Powers and Russia be­cause I see no possibility of the West G erm an government accom plish ing re - un ification by itse lf.” Only good re la­tions between East and West are strengthened can there be any progress.

ACCORDING to W olfram , student com m unists are not a source of irritation in West Germany today because their num ber is so sm all The real sore spot is Wtest Berlin be­cause there is the constant fear of a com m unist takeover against which the West Ber­liners themselves would be a lm ost powerless.

Wolf, who comes from a small town in Bavaria, Deg- gendorf, feels quite at home in Appleton. He is especially grateful for his sccholarship to Lawrence and for the help of the People - to - People or­ganization on campus.

A representative of People- to-Peopie, D an Fostey. m et h im on arriva l and introduc­ed h im to the students and to the cam pus in general. He is now busy with his architect­ural studies and his work as a G erm an assistant.

The m ain differences be­tween Lawrence and the Uni­versity cf M unich are the so­cial life and cam pus ac tiv i­ties. At M unich, students are fully engaged by their stud­ies and there is little tim e for fun.

An Open Letter lu LaiireiiliaiisI would like to take a few

m inutes of your tim e to d is­cuss w ith you some thoughts

______________ I h a v e hadthis past sum- m er with re­gard to your u ltim ate pur­pose in being

j at Lawrence. I do not c la im

' these to be

o r i g i n a l thoughts, but they are none

the less true ones, and m ight well form a fresh and pract­

ica l guide in beginning the school year.

Neither can I c la im to be an authority in the area whereof I speak, but as a teacher, researcher, fratern i­ty and church youth group advisor, parent and counsel­or to m any students and par­ents,I feel that I have gained some valuab le insight.

I am troubled by the con­stant com plain ts I hear from college graduates, both young and old. “ W hy d idn ’t the col­lege prepare me better for facing real life ?” says the once starry - eyed scientist. “ Is this a ll I get from a co l­lege educa tion?" moans the pretty young thing from the depths of a diaper-pail. “ Four years of a liberal education, and nothing but an eight hour day of boredom ,” cries the old econom ics grad in his ennui.

These com plaints are, I th ink , sym ptom atic of a les­son which was not learned by the speakers, for they have not yet grasped the true g lim ­m er of the creative process. I t is this creativ ity about which I would like to speak.

One m ust be careful in de­fin ing creativ ity and charac­terizing creative individuals. A creative person is not one who occasionally turns out a do-it-yourself project; rather he is one who is creative in a ll he sees and does.

Every event, every object in his life takes on an excit­ing newness when viewed by the tru ly creative person.

Boredom does not exist for this person, for his creativ­ity is an attitude, a way of liv ing. A creative act is just one m anifestation of this per­

son’s being.* * *

C R E A T IV IT Y is nurtured by that which nourishes the m ind and contributes to its w h o l e s o m e m a tu ra tion ; am ong the several foods for creativ ity , the most essential

is freedom .

The freedom I refer to is not non-conformity for the sake of being different, and not the feeling of relief that a problem has been taken off one’s hands. True freedom

RICHARD W. ZUEHLKE

can be associated with an over-all sense of inner peace and serenity.

For a child, it m ight well be represented by the feeling of relaxation that he has, knowing that his good habits of s a y i n g “ please” and ‘ thank you’’ w ill not get h im into trouble on those big so­cial occasions.

Too often I have ’ heard an undergraduate say, “ All that form al course work is too much for me. W hat I really need is the freedom of a tu ­to r ia l!” He even has the spark of a creative id »a at the start of the tutorial, but by the end of the term he has flubbed completely.

Why? In every case the an ­swer has been that even though he was granted free­dom in one respect, the stu­dent was not able to grant his own m ind the freedom it was ca lling for in other areas.

Like creativ ity , its daugh­ter, true freedom pervades all areas of a person’s exist­ence. A person sim ply freed to pursue his own desires is not a free m an in the in te l­lectual sense.

T RU E intellectual freedom, representing an escape from ignorance, is not the mere acquisition of knowledge, but rather the way in which it is acquired and the flex ib ility one has in putting it to wise use. As with the child m en­tioned above, this freedom comes with the development of good habits; and this in turn is governed by responsi­bility.

The tru ly creative person, and hence a responsible one, holds that he has responsibil­ity in every area of his en ­deavor. As a scientist, for in ­stance, he has a responsibil­ity for the valid ity of his findings and the in terpreta­tion of same; he has respon­sibilities to his fam ily , his parents, his neighbors; he feels the responsibility to continue his learning.

W hat develops this sense of responsibility? Certa in ly not reading about it. C erta in ­ly not “ perm issive” tra in ing . Both of these, by their very nature, cannot coexist with responsibility.

Responsibility can only be learned, and can only exist, with the simultaneous im po ­sition of restrictions. Does this contradict the relation to freedom?

I think not. Restrictions form a large part of the back­log of one’s experience upon which he can draw during his development. Thus, one lives his life and develops his m o­dus o p e r a n d ! w ithin the framework of social (no open dorm policy), econom ic (the

high cost of tu ition), academ ­ic (honor system) and m ora l (m arriage first, then ch il­dren) restrictions.

The great (or wise, or cre­ative — they are all synony­mous) person w ill seek out his responsibility in these a r ­eas, and not look for ways of avoiding responsibility. The good habits formed in this way develop a m an ’s sense of intellectual freedom.

* * *

O F C O U RSE , a wise m an realizes that some restric­tions. while freeing h im in one respect, m ay lim it his freedom in another. Thus, a painter has not total freedom of expression, for if he elects to use water colors, he is nec­essarily restricted to two d i­mensions. The biologist ex­periences da ily restrictions in his attem pt to control all of the elements of his sub­je c t’s environment.

The truly creative person, then, realizing that restric­tions are always present, m akes good use of them rather than deplores them . These restrictions enable h im to develop his sense of free­dom , and at the same tim e offer h im a challenge to his ingenuity.

It is in this fusion of things, people, and events that free­dom , responsibility and cre­ativ ity take on their real m eaning.

Every student at Lawrence has w ithin h im self the capa­city to m ake his college great, his fratern ity great, his church great and his chosen academ ic discip line great. But this can only be accomplished by one who knows that he him self can become great.

Lawrence has, for over a century, continually asserted, through its concept of the lib ­erating arts, the power of re- sponsbility, freedom and cre­ativity. This is the secret of greatness, and it is w ithin the grasp of everyone.

Is this your year to reach out?

l l z t t z ï 1 to tfl£ ¿zditozTo the Editor:

At the SEC m eeting on Monday night, Gordon Taylor moved that the fraternities and sororities on the Law ­rence college cam pus be abolished. After lengthy dis­cussion, the motion was ta ­bled indefinitely.

We would like to com m ent upon this m otion, not as in ­dependents, but as ind iv id ­uals who are m em bers of this academ ic com m un ity .

We sincerely doubt tha t 30 per cent of this cam pus is actively opposed to fratern i­ties and sororities.

It is assumed that those who are m em bers of Greek groups do not fit into this category; and of the approxi­m ately 50 per cent of the co l­lege which is composed of in­dependents, some do not wish to exchange the existing sit­uation because they would like to be m em bers of a fra ­ternity or sorority, and oth­ers would prefer to m a in ta in the status quo— the independ­ents going one way and the Greeks another — because they see no reason why it should be changed. The few rem ain ing indiv idua ls a r e those who seek the abolition of Greek groups.

This is not, however, the entire picture. Occasionally, one hears com m ents from a fraternity or sorority m e m ­ber that hfs group is tak ing too m uch of his tim e for a particu lar function, that he is not entirely in accordance with the policy of his group, and so forth.

“ ‘We do not im p ly that all, or even most, fraternity and sorority m em bers are d issat­isfied with their respective organizations. We m e r e l y point out that some dissatis­faction, together with a basis for such feeling, docs exist in these groups.

It m ust be apparent to ev­eryone that if fraternities and sororities are to be abolished it m ust be done with the con­sent of an overwhelm ing m a ­jority of the students, which would involve the consent of m any now in the system.

This raises two questions: how is this to be accom plish­ed, particu larly in the face of the m em bers ’ sworn loyalty to their groups; and why should this consent be given at ail?

We think that the answ«T

to the first question lies in the fact that each of us has a loyalty which transcends to a social group. We are m e m ­bers of tl»e academ ic com ­m unity of Lawrence college. With both the privileges and the obligations that such m em bersh ip dem ands.

Only as indiv iduals respon­sible to the academ ic co m ­m unity can we exam ine the question of whether to abol­ish fraternities and sororities upon the m erits of the pro­posal.

Upon what basis, however, should consent be given? We think that the m a in issue is sim ply this: are the fra te rn i­ties and sororities on this cam pus in harm ony with the aim s and ideals that L aw ­rence, as an academ ic com ­m unity , attempts to promote?

The issue m ust be set in this context. If the Greek groups were outside this com ­m unity , exerting no influence upon it as a whole but only upon the indiv iduals specifi­cally concerned with each group, then there could be no basis for seeking their aboli­tion.

A Lawrence student m ay belong to the Am erican Nazi party or to the Congress of Racial E qua lity ; these organ­izations are not m aintained as a part of Lawrence co l­lege. The Greek groups are, and they m ust Ik*, exam ined as such.

The m em bers of Lawrence college, then, as indiv iduals, must decide for themselves whether fraternities and sor­orities belong here. Do they foster conform ity, or do they provide a sound foundation, academ ica lly and socially, for their m em bers?

Does the conform ity nec­essary for m em bership in Greek groups cause m o r e harm than the good which it accomplishes? To what ex­tent do Greek groups in flu ­ence the entire com m un ity , and what is the effect of this influence?

The answer to these ques­tions does not lie in a mud- slinging, “ I ’m right, you're w rong" sort of argument. It must be sought in an ob jec­tive exam ination of the Greek system on the basis of the purposes which Lawrence, as an academ ic com m un ity , rep resents,

Football, according to Rob­erts, has m uch to offer a col­

lege. He feels it is a means of raising school spirit and of keeping interest in the col­lege alive.

It is a generally held belief that there arc m any differen­ces between football as p lay ­ed at a school such as lvaw- rence and as played at a large university. Coach Rob­erts, however, feels there are in fact only two.

F IRST and foremost, the players at Lawrence a r e pr im arily interested in get­ting an education and not necessarily in football.

Secondly, sm aller schools such as Lawrence cannot compete with the larger un i­versities in attrac ting high

school football stars.Because he played defen­

sive football in college. Coach Roberts naturally em phasiz­es the defensive side of the game. He feels defensive play is more difficult than of­fensive, for to excel, a de­fensive linem an nee<Js more experience and quickness of m ind than an offensive line­m an.

ROBERT S is a graduate of the University of W isconsin, where he m ajored in physical education. He also received his masters degree in educa­tional adm in istration from Wisconsin.

Roberts is currently work­ing toward his Ph. I)., also in educational adm in istration , at the University of Chicago. He hopes to complete his work this com ing sum m er.

Before com ing to Lawrence, Roberts coached at East Ley­den high school in F rank lin l ’ark. 111. (1960-1962) and Crane Tech high school in Chicago (1958-1959).

Hansen was unable to move the team consistently as the Vike offense was v irtually non-existent in the second stanza.

On a day when nothing seemed to go right for the V*’'C3. cr!y the offensive end play of senior Pat Jordan and the punting of Bob Sehoen- wetter s4ood out. Schoenwet- ter punted nine times for a respectable 37-yard average.

THE D E F E N S IV E play of Mueller. Kussow, Berghult. Knabe and Edstrom plus the tackle play of soph Ned C a rl­eton was com m endable .

The Vikes offensive m ach­ine was held in check all af­ternoon by the hard-charging penetrating defense of the Ram interior linemen. Law ­

rence was held to a mere six first clowns and gained only81 total yards.

Injuries plagued the Vikes throughout the game. Star linem en Paul Cromheecke and W alt Chapm an suffered leg in jtn e s as did soph Jack Robertscn. T im Knabe also injured his back.

A ll four are expected to be out for this weeks clash w ith

QUADSQUADS

Defensive play highlighted Tuesday’s opening schedule of interfrat football. Only two team s m anaged to score while on offense, and three

teams were unable to score touchdowns.

The Phi Delts used their defense to stop the Phi Taus12-0. Joel Ungrodt took a pass interception in for one score and the Phi Delts scored their rem ain ing six points on three safeties.

The Sig Eps bested the Be­tas 15-6. Ron K raft threw to Bob Lane for the first score and Bob H abig intercepted a pass for the other Sig Ep tally. Bruce Jensen scored the lone Beta touchdown on a long pass in the opening series of downs.

The Phi G am s squeezed past the Delts 2-0, scoring on a safety late in the second half.

Injuries Will Hamp er Vikes Against Siwash

COACH HESELTON and his injury-laden charges w ill traxel to Knox this Saturday to take on an improv­ed Siwash eleven.

ALTHOUGH Knox sports only a 25-man roster, Hoad coach A1 Partin has a number of veterans from which to choose. The Siwashbackfield is v irtua lly the same as last season w ith Duke Botthof at quarterback, Don H arrington, who gained special conference mention last season at halfback and Dave Kiss at fullback.

Knox, winless in the *63 cam paign, will be H | « r to avenge a 21-6 defeat at the hands o the Vikes last sea­son. Knox has suffered set­backs by Beloit 30-0 and Grinnell 31-14 so far this sea­son.

The Vike eleven w ill also be looking for its in itia l trium ph of the young season. Regard ­ed by m any as a pre-season threat to the MWC title. Law ­rence must rebound from its losses to St. O laf and Cornell to rem ain in contention.

THE V IK E S will travel to Knox w ithout the services of linemen Paul Cromheecke, W alt Chapm an and Jack Rob­ertson—all injured in the Cor­nell gam e last Saturday. The status of jun ior halfback T im Knabe is also doubtful. T im is suffering from a back in ­jury .

Knox will be eager to im ­prove its 0-8 record of last season. Lawrence, on the oth­er hand, m ust develop an of­fensive punch to go along

with its potentially strong de ­fense if it is to enter the v ic­tory co lum n for the first tim e this season.

Dr. Curtis W , TarrShortly after his return to Stanford to do his

doctorial work, Dr. Curtis W. Tarr told his high school principal, . . if the time ever came I ’d like to be president of a small liberal arts col­lege.” The time has come and Lawrence is that college.

In the role of administrator. Tarr wants to be­come sufficiently acquainted with the students to know where and what their problems are. He feels his work at Lawrence will not really be too different from his work at Stanford, where he was dean of summer school and assistant to the presi­dent. Both positions in education involves basically the same issue — the individual responsibility of doing one’s work in the college.

This attitude, that responsibility lies upon the individual, is reflected by both the president ant] his wife when they reflect upon Dr. Tarr’s brief political career. Defeated in the 1958 race for Congressman from the second district in Californ­ia, he feels that he and his, wife “did all the right things, but we didn’t get the votes.”

Both of the Tarrs agree, however, that their long, hard hours of work were not wasted in the defeat for they gained an insight into the mechan­ics of politics and politicians (‘‘A good politician is an easy compromiser.” ) They were surprised to discover that educated people were not always educated voters and that “there are not that many people in politics whom you can really ad­mire.”

Dr. Tarr’s involvement with politics was sand­wiched between his teaching career and his decis­ion to return to graduate school to work for his doctorial degree. His experience with teaching convinced him he wanted a career in education— and further postgraduate study became necessary.

The thing which both the president and his wife enjoy a great dea l— people — fits in with their new duties. When considering the area for his doctoral work, Dr. Tarr first decided upon the field of psychology because he likes working with people — only to find out that this is not what psychology encompasses.

Mrs. Tarr enjoys having people use and enjoy her house, formally or informally. She and her husband hope students will regard this as an in­vitation to visit their home.

Family to the Tarrs include their two daught­ers, Cindy, 4, and Pam, (5. and their German shep- ard puppy, Baron von Appleton.
