Explains Executive Council
"One of the more interesting
aspects of being Governor is the
appointments. The Executive
Council, which is composed of
seven members elected by the
legislature, has no authority to
make appointments, only to approve or disapprove. Through
the years, Maine has been relatively free of corruption. In
spile of the fact that the Governor has control over the various
departments, the department
heads are elected by the legislature to allow each department to
make decisions as to how far they
wish to go."
Reed stated that, "The Governor's first responsibility is the

preparation of his inaugural message to the legislature, in which
he presents his ideas and recommendations. Once his measures
are presented, it is the responsibility of the Governor to insure
the enactment of legislation to
push forward his ideas. Towards
this end, I work very closely with
the leaders of the legislature. I
have made it a practice not to
interfere with legislation as a
whole, for it is the legislature's
responsibility to vote on it and
the Governor's to consider it
when it reaches his desk.
Cites Social Duties
"In Augusta, we maintain an
open-door policy and have many
people coming in each day. Public appearances, which take a
groat deal of time, and contacts,
are the second most important
phase of being Governor. We are
hopoful of arranging a series of
television programs to inform
people more fully about how
their government works."
In closing his talk. Governor
Reed expressed this thought: "I
take the attitude that the Governor is there to serve the people
and the people have a right to
as much of the governor's time
as he can possibly give."
The Bates Chapter of Phi Beta
Kappa is presenting, free, a technicolor movie of "Romeo and

Recognizes Scholarship
The film is being offered to the
campus as a means of reminding
students of Phi Beta Kappa, the
oldest Greek-letter society in existence, founded in 1776 at the
College of William and Mary to
recognize outstanding scholarship.
According to Prof. Berkelman.

Phillips Appears On College Bowl Program m /¥cr
By LINDA BROWNING '64
Those of us who happened to
turn on our television sets last
Sunday afternoon probably saw
the familiar face of our own
President Phillips, for he was one
of three college presidents in the
entire country who was asked to
appear on a special section of
the College Bowl program.
The General Electric Company
sponsors the College Bowl television program which is broadcast live every Sunday afternoon. On this show, one college
competes against another in a
question and answer session
moderated by Mr. Alan Ludden.
It is for this program in June
that Bates students are now preparing.
Presidents Answer Questions
Because parents have so many
questions concerning college admission of their children, General
Electric decided to devote all of
its commercial time on two of
its- College Bowl viewings to
having college presidents answer
questions of this nature. The
sponsor visited the guidance directors in a limited number of
high schools in each section of
the United States and asked them
to enumerate the questions that
were most often considered and
discussed among their students.
Then, three representative colleges were chosen according to
their geographical location, and
their presidents were asked to
appear. These men were Dr.
Louis Benezet of the University
of Colorado, Rev. Hesburgh of
Notre Dame, and, of course, Dr.
Phillips. The three men met in
New York some time previous to
the show and made a video tape
of their portion of the program.
This was done entirely without
script or rehearsal. Mr. Ludden
Men's Assembly
Linnell, attempted to improve
faculty-student relations by promoting a program of informal
get-togethers of professors and
undergraduates in the latter's
rooms. Still another committee,
Freshman Activities, successfully recommended the abolition of
the Freshman Decapping Smoker
and the institution of a decapping ritual and freshman halflime activities during the Bates
Homecoming Game.
One member of the Council,
James Linnell, has participated
very actively on the joint Student Council - Student Government "Student Senate" Committee, established to recommend
a foundation for an investigation
of the possibility and practicability of combining the two governments in some way. As a result of this committee's conclusions, an official joint committee,
the Liaison Committee, has been
established to make definite suggestions within a year on the
amalgamation of the two bodies,
ind perhaps other organizations,
into some sort of Student Senate
or coordinated student government.
Council Investigates Fire Alarms
Prompted by several instances
of illegal fire bell ringing, the
Council has looked into the fire
alarm system of the men's dormitories. As a result of its concern,
steps are being taken to install
louder fire bells and tamper-inhibiting alarm boxes in some if
not all of the men's dormitories.
Finally, the Council has undertaken to provide monetary assistance to valuable campus
groups not adequately supported by the financial structure ol
the College. First, it underwrote
in conjunction with the Student
Government the now defunct
plan for dormitories to stage allcampus dances. Secondly, it
shifted its contribution to help
defray the costs of Mayoralty to
the spring weekend program,
now run by the Chase Hall
Dance Committee. Thirdly, it
made a gift to the campus radio
station, WRJR-FM, to help meet
the costs of a new broadcasting
console. Fourthly, it has given
the Art Workshop funds to be
used next year in its program for
all interested students.
On behalf of the men of the
1960-01 Student Council I thank
the members of the preceding
Council for the foundation which
they established for us to work
on and hope that the members
of the new Council will find its
present condition satisfactory for
the conduct of their activities.
To President Robin Scofield and
his fellow representatives we offer best wishes for success in
maintaining and improving the
tradition of the Bates College
Student Council.

gOM to Council members James
Linnell and Robin Scofield.
Serving as a medium of student expression, the Student
Council organized a mass meeting for the expression of opinions on the change in the
Thanksgiving holiday. Although
the sense of the meeting did not
carry with the faculty, the meeting was a successful vent of
emotion and theory. Later in the
year the Council provided a forum for the airing of feelings
about changes in the men's intramural system, proposed by
Dr. Lux. After a Council meeting and an Assembly meeting on
that subject, the matter was put
to an Assembly referendum as
an option between improving the
intramural system on a dorimtory basis or on a club plan. The
former won overwhelmingly.
Examines Social Life
During the year a committee
of the Council, chairmanned by
George Goodall, examined the
campus social problem and concluded that the only feasible solution lay in the greater use of
the facilities of the Women's
Union. At the same time another
committee, headed by James

Lee To Lecture
On Chinese Art
In Bates Gallery
On Thursday, April 6, visiting
professor Dr. Shao Chang Lee
will give a lecture in the Filene
Room entiled, "Chinese Art at
Bates." The lecture, which begins at 7:15 p.m., will be illustrated with slides. Following his
Dr. Shao Chang Lee
talk, Dr. Lee will take groups
through the Hinckley Room of
the gallery to view the Chinese
art objects there.
Explains Value Of Art
The purprose of Dr. Lee's lecture is to explain to Bates students, as well as people from
the Lewiston-Auburn area, the
educational value of the various
Respectfully submitted,
Oriental objects. Dr. Lee wishes
Robert Viles, President to create an appreciation of the
1960-61 Student Council culture represented there and to
stimulate further interest in this
type of art so that eventually,
Bates might have a culture center of its own. Dr. Lee also wants
to create a better understanding
of the people of the East.
Among the many obpjects to
be seen are a tea bowl of the
12th century, an imperial robe

of the late 18th century and a
huge 19th century couch inlaid

IO the ranks of WRJR celebraties this week. Beginning Thursday, on the early shift, 6:45 to
6, one of WRJR's newest and
brightest
personalities,
Bill
Young, will be breaking the silence barrier with the best and
latest sounds from the 45's and
LP's. Glad to have you aboard,
Bill. •
Complements Thompson
And say, speaking of Thursday
nights, per usual, Gray Thompson's "Folk Hour" is always a
refreshment. Gray has a knack
for cramming a great variety of
folk songs into a short forty-five
minutes, so need more be said?
If folk music sets your toes atappin', tune in at 10:15 on
Thursdays.
Thanks Seniors
Speaking for the entire staff, a
special thanks is due to Dennis
Akerman and Jack Henderson,
seniors and formerly Board members for the work they have done
for the station in the past few
years.
Vacancies: We are looking for
a Technical Director. Anyone interested should contact one of
the board members.
Positions are also open in the
Public Relations Department.
Watch the bulletin boards for
announcements concerning this
or contact yours truly.
Until next week, we leave you
with this reminder: you can hear

BATES STUDENT, APRIL 5, 1961

Editorials
I
A Matter Of Policy
The new STUDENT staff is publishing a statement of
policy in order to clarify the position of this newspaper on
editorial matters. We attempt to print objectively that news
which, in the opinion of the editors, is timely and relevant to
the Bates campus. National and international happenings are
not often carried because they are adequately covered in
large daily papers that have the facilities necessary to follow
the rapid pace of everchanging news on the world scene. This
in no way means that we plan to disregard extra-campus
news. To the contrary, when students and faculty find such
news of special interest, they should indicate their concern
in letters to the Editor, and by so doing, attempt to elicit
response from others on the matter.
The STUDENT will consider lor publication any letter
which is typewritten double-spaced and given to a stair member or handed to a postoffice clerk (specify STUDENT box
309). We reserve the right to edit any letter, but will notify
the author of our decision so that he may alter or withdraw
the letter if he so desires. Letters to the Editor can be written on any matter which the writer feels is important enough
to be brought to the attention of STUDENT readers.
Feature articles differ from news in that they appeal to the
reader on the basis of interest rather than strictly news value.
Regular features (columns) constantly view the same field
from the same general outlook; they are usually written by
the same person and are often personalized. For this reason,
the feature writer's name appears at the opening of his article, while the newswriler, unless he includes unavoidable
editorial comment, rarely receives a by-line for his writing.
It is not the purpose of an editorial to provoke controversy.
Heated discussion, however, often arises as a direct result of
the chief purpose of the editorial: to direct the readers' attention to a significant problem and to offer an opinion on the
matter in order to stimulate further student thought on the
issue. The Editor will welcome and consider any serious
suggestions for editorial comment.

By RICHARD CARLSON '62
I have very few words: Ingmar Bergman's The Seventh Seal
is a masterpiece. And I wonder
if a dramatic film, within its
present aesthetics, can be much
better than this picture. It is one
of the peaks of contemporary
cinema, and a peak in Bergman's
creation as well.
The basic theme, a stunning
allegory of life and death as a
chess game, is handled with
truth, simplicity and beauty.
Through the baroque complexity
of the surface plot, death sometimes means nothingness, sometimes a horrible dream, sometimes a lighthearted topple out
of a tree. The stock characters
of Bergman's earlier films, all
excellently portrayed,
appear
here again: his beautiful innocent women, plus the fleshy ones
too; the materialist businessmen;
the intellectual but primitive
searchers; skeptics, cynics, saintly actors. Special recognition
should be given to Max Von
Sydow. Bergman's leading man,
who manages in every scene to
pull us deeper and deeper in the
web of hopeless anxieties, a web
of loneliness, pretension, boredom, thirst for love, thirst for
compassion.
Uses Modern Themes
Bergman proves to be the most
modern of all film-makers. He
deals with the most modern
themes, asks the most contemporary questions, describes the
most modern desperations. No
other film-maker of our day has
been able to state all this as forcibly as does Bergman. And he
does it in simple dramatic situations of great intensity. Whatever imperfections his films have,
these imperfections become unimportant. When experiencing
the work of an artist, the question of perfection becomes meaningless. Bergman takes art to its
limits: he does not simply imitate and reflect life; he summarizes, he questions, he reveals, he
rebels.
Granted, there are many confusing undercurrents
in this
film, many underthoughts, every
image' and every incident becomes a symbol — but they are
always direct results of very
concrete emotional clashes and
concrete dramatic situations, recognizable, universally identifiable
— clashes which cut into one's
consciousness with the sharpness
of a lash.
Knight Examines Life
It is through these situations
and clashes that the knight has
come to face his whole life, to
evaluate it, to reject it, and to
try to correct it. It is a theme of
great scope and great complexity, and one is amazed with what
simple means Bergman achieves
his aims, and the amount of experience that he puts into it.
When we come to the last unforgettable image, we feel that we
have traveled (or shall I say,
been forced to dance) a long
way: the film grows, expands,
turns inward, burns, together
with the protagonist — in an anguish and fear as only a man facing the crumbling of his entire
life can know — until he is cornered into facing himself, and
discovering to his horror that it
is Death that he sees; until his
own lashes of experience and
memory drag him to the stake
and burn him out, purify him,
change him, until the film ends
back where we started in the
clarity, serenity, and peace of

Fisk Named 1961- 62 Hoop Leader
Garnet Basketball Five;
Seven Seniors Honored
By AL MARDEN
In this athletic lull between seasons one can not help but
reminisce slightly before facing the future. Currently, this
year's varsity squads have compiled a 20-17-2 mark which
by this non-mathematical mind figures in the neighborhood
of 54%. This figure is not too bad when one considers the
Goliath-like foe the Garnet sling-throwers often face.
Meanwhile, when looking ahead one can not help but predict an improvement on the above percentage. The spring
captains are currently leading their charges in various symbolic activities in our spacious cage, while waiting for Zeus
to "Rinse Away" his dandruff from Garcelon Field. The
baseball picture looks rosey as our neighbors aren't faring
too well down south. With several lettermen and at least
one promising freshman, both tennis and golf teams seem
headed for a winning season. Mr. Slovenski, host to this
year's State Meet, hopes to disappoint Emily Post and prove
to be a most inhospitable entertainer.
Messieurs Hall, Huggard and myself along with newcomers Phil Tamis, Lee Nute and Jim Brockelman hope to continue the fine work of our scholarly predecessors Skip Marden and Dick Yerg, while also spicing the pages in the Waynian tradition.
Bobcat Banter
Jim Sutherland, the hustling Garnet Captain, was selected to play in the sixth annual All-Star game in Boston Garden. Jim refused this honor because of academic pressures.
He would have had a field day! Other familiar faces honored were Colby Captain Charlie Swanson, Larry Schiner,
Maine, Pete Scott, Bowdoin, and the little giant from Clark,
Fan Gaudette, who led all scorers with 33 points.
Selected to play in the Down East Classic next year were
Columbia, Coast Guard, Rochester, and U.N.H. ... . Next
year's basketball captains were named throughout the state.
Along with our Pete Fisk will be Bowdoin Co-captains-elect
Ed Callahan and Billy Cohen, Colby Captain-elect Bob Thaxter, and Maine Captain-elect Skip Chappelle.
Colby on its southern baseball trip has lost six of eight;
Bowdoin has dropped four of four and Maine opens up at
Princeton this week. ... It could be an interesting State
Series.

Go Man Go
The game is "Go," invented by
the Chinese about 3000 years ago.
It is played on a board similar
to that of checkers, only without
the alternate colored squares.
The game is played by placing
colored stones, black and white,
on the intersection of the lines
or "cross" in an effort to "fence
in" territory. The play is alternated, and the pieces are not
moved but remain stationery, a
new stone being used for each
move, and as many as 300 stones
are used in the game.
The winner is the player who
acquires the most territory by
straight play or by surrounding
the stones of the opposition. "Go"

ACTIVATED CHARCOAL inner filter
The difference is this: Tareyton's Dual Filter gives you a
unique inner filter of ACTIVATED CHARCOAL, definitely proved to
make the taste of a cigarette mild and smooth. It works together with
a pure white outer filter—to balance the flavor elements in the smoke.
Tareyton delivers—and you enjoy—the best taste of the best tobaccos.
