WM hilltop Betos " A STUDENT MANAGED FORUM FOR NEWS, ARGUMENT, DEBATE, OPINION, HERESY, SATIRE, SARCASM AND A DASH OF NONSENSE " Volume VIII No. 24 La Grange College Summer school to have largest enrollment yet LaGRANGE, GA. •• Students may acquire up to 20 quarter hours of credit by attending both summer sessions at LC this year. Dr. C. Lee Harwell, academic dean, said the first session will begin on Monday, June 13, and continue through Friday July 15. The second term is scheduled from Monday, July 18, through Saturday, August 20. "Last summer's record enrollment for the split session of summer school proved that most students liked this plan," Dr. Harwell said. "We are looking forward to an even greater number of students this coming summer." The dean emphasized that the course offerings are designed especially for freshman students recently graduated from high school, for transient students regularly enrolled in other colleges, for public school teachers working on certification, and for LC students who wish to accelerate their education. Registrar Alfred Mariotti said the LC enrollment last summer was 228, an increase of almost 25 per cent over the 1964 summer term. Summer quarter courses in the following fields will be offered: art, Bible, biology, chemistry, economics, education, English, French, general science, geography, health and physical education, history, mathematics, music, philosophy, political science, psychology, religion, sociology, Spanish, and speech. Students may carry two fivehour courses during each summer term,Dr.Harwell said.Each class will be scheduled for a two-hour period each day. "This should be the most comfortable summer for our students as our library, dining hall, administration building, and most of our classrooms wiU be air-conditioned." 3116 Dr.^mvc Harwell said NEWS FLASH!!!!!!!!!!! It was announced by informed sources late yesterday that three students will soon receive letters of a mysterious nature from the administration.

Folk singers from colleges throughout the southeast will gather in Mercer's Porter Gymnasium to swap songs and play before folksong enthusiasts at a Friday evening performance beginning at 8 o'clock and at a Saturday performance at 2:30. Dr. Ben W. Griffith, director and founder of the festival, said the informal songfest is "among the oldest collegiate folk festivals in the country, having started before the recent boom in folk music." The Mercer festival specializes in traditional folksongs and bluegrass-type instrumentals. No amplified instruments are used. Informal workshops and playing sessions are held during the weekend. The festival will be presented in a new format this year. Part of each performance will be presented from a central platform in the gymnasium. At other times during the evening the audience may circulate, listening to one of several groups of playing simultaneously in various sections of the gymnasium and in the adjoining gardens. April 19. 1966 La Grange, Georgia Musical play will be highlight of quarter "Once Upon A Mattress,' a musical comedy version of Hans Christian Anderson's "The Princess and the Pea," is the Spring play scheduled for May 13 and 14 in Dobbs Auditorium at 8:00 p.m. Dr. Max Estes, director of the show, has announced that this delightful entertainment will combine the efforts of the entire Fine Arts Division of LaGrange College. A special interest feature of "Once Upon A Mattress" is that it contains the first full-length musical score by Mary Rodgers, daughter of that other very famous composer, Richard Rodgers. The lyrics for her catchy tunes were written by Marshall Barer, who along with Jay Thompson and Dean Fuller, also devised the jolly book for the Broadway hit on the basis of the old fairy tale about the super-sensitive princess.

Trip is a student at LaGrange college and is a speech and drama major who hopes to be a motion-picture producerdirector. Now a sophomore, Trip will soon star in the colleee production of "Once Upon A Mattress". A native of Atlanta, Trip has performed with Theater Under the Stars during the summer of 1964. His class at Bass High School in Atlanta co-starred with the outdoor summer production of "Bye Bye Birdie" starring Van Johnson. Trip will begin rehearsals for the 1966 Theater Under the Stars on June 27 when he will meet and begin working with each star Qf the six show line-up. As a member of the singing chorus, Trip will be on stage nightly at Chastain Amphiteater July 12Aug. 21. Tech. Mr. Landiss will be here at the request of the SCA. "They were very fortunate in obtaining Mr. Landiss, for he is in great demand as a speaker on matters of interest to students," said Dr. McCook. v Mr. Landiss has served on the faculty of Emory University as a student instructor, and student director of the Glee Club, and is currently on the faculty in the department of religion. He has had pastorates in Georgia and New England. He has recently finished a week of lectures at Bucknell University. The overall title for the series will be "The Christian Style of Life", subdivided into three topics. Con't on page 4 Nutty prof campus fiick The Pre-Ministerial Association presents Jerry Lewis and Stella Stevens in "The Nutty Professor" Friday night April 22. In an imaginative twist on the split personality theme, Jerry Lewis plays a bumbling professor who discovers a chemical formula that transforms him into a swaggering campus hearthrob. Unfortunately the potion wears off at embarrassing moments. The rest is the usual confusion that results in all Lewis' movies and adds up to an evening of laughter, if you like that sort of thing. Peace corps to give tests LaGrange students will have an opportunity to take the Peace Corps Placement Test on camus on April 29. It will be given in Manget .110 at three p.m. The Peace Corps needs 10,500 new Volunteers to enter training between now and next fall for service in 48 developing nations of Latin America, Africa, and Asia. The Placement Test is designed to help the Peace Corps match applicants' special abilities with the 300 different kinds of jobs to be filled. If the test indicates a limited language-learning ability, for example, the Peace Corps tries to place the applicant in an English-speaking country. The application form (Volun- teer Questionnaire), rather than the Placement Test, is the most important factor in the selection of Volunteers. Studentsor others available for service oT advance training within the next year must fill out a Volunteer Questionnaire before taking the test. The Questionnaire, which is submitted to the tester, can be obtained in advance from Mr. Lance Williams, the Peace Corps Liaison on campus, or from Peace Corps, Washington, D.C. 20525. The PlacementTesttakes about an hour and a half. An optional French or Spanish achievement test requires another hour. Both tests are non-competitive and require no preparation. April 19, 1966 More on spring teams An editorial appearing in last week's HTN titled "Should spring teams continue?" has been the subject oi controversy since its publication. In order to clarify the position taken last week, this column will delve further into the problem. This week our tennis team dropped two more matches, 9-0 and 7-2, to Columbus and North Georgia respectively. This brings the team record to a most unprestigeous 0-7. Our track team stands 0-1 on the season, and based on its performance at Emory, I cannot forsee any major improvement in its won-lost percentage. Besides the fact that it costs money to operate these teams, LC is naturally tagged as a loser by anyone who reads the sports pages. It is amazing to notice the burning desire for victory that our basketball team possesses. But, in talking to members of our track and tennis teams, I get the impression that they are not too concerned with whether they win or lose. I have heard several tennis team members casually discuss their forthcoming defeat before they actually played their matches. I agree with those who say that team sports should help a person develop physically, socially, and morally. But the primary purpose of competitive sport, as I see it, should be winning by as one-sided a score as is possible. Our tennis and track teams do not do this. In fact they do not even win. Do they need to practice more? Should LC give track and tennis scholarships? Do we need a coach for each of the teams? I suggest that those responsible for our athletic program study the problems our teams are having, study the lack of student support given to these teams, and either attempt to foster a winning combination or discontinue the teams. (HMD) It's light up time "No Smoking in the Cafeteria!" Who says so? Everyone seems to think that smoking is not allowed in the cafeteria. As a service to the college we have searched the current student handbook and found no reference to smoking in the cafeteria. Since the legislative council has apparently neglected to vote on this issue, we assume that there is no rule against it. Furthermore the lack of "No Smoking" signs in the cafeteria strengthens our assumption. Until smoking in the cafeteria is voted out by the student body, we suggest that after enjoying a tasty Campus Chef meal, feel" free to light up.

I think we will all agree that if it did nothing else, it received our attention. Perhaps, as some have said, it made us think about the crucifixion of Christ more deeply than before. Must what we believe in be ridiculed before ATTENTION Male Seniors Letters it has deep meaning for us? Possibly the negative attitude in which it was presented opened many eyes, but while doing so it also provided amusement that was disrespectful of what actually happened years ago on the cross: of Calvary. Could a true Christian gaze upon the picture on the front page of last week's paper and not feel remorse that such an act of mockery is publicized as the reflection of the student body of our college. It seems to me that is no longer a laughing matter. We are students of a college that is to say the least, liberal.and respect for what should be held sacred is lost because a few students who seem to have opposing convictions can feel free to perform such a derisive act. I don't condemn them for it. I simply fail to understand why the rights of a Christian at a Christian college are exploited and people seem to find it amusing. Much else could be said about various other parts of our "New" newspaper, butl will mention only one more. A comment in the article, "For what its worth" stated "REW with its compulsory attendence seems to prove that dead or alive God wants you, even if you don't want him". I couldn't help but wonder as I read that statement who they were trying to convince, themselves or their readers. I wonder why these students chose a church affiliated college, when all they do is point thumbs down on that which it stands. Why did they choose LaGrange College as their place to rebel? It seems as though they came here to search for something and have now become afraid they are going to find it. Brenda Verdell THE EDITOR: I would like to comment on your editorial in last week's Hilltop News, "Should Spring Teams Continue?" School athletics should make a worthwhile contribution to the educational objectives of LaGrange College or they should be discontinued. The only justification that we have for intercollegiate sports is that they provide an opportunity for the student with exceptional sports skill to develop mentally, physically, socially, and emotionally through wholesome competitive activities. The primary consideration in determining the value of interscholastic sports is the individual who participates. Such things as school spirit, school presitige, and spectator interest are not major factors in evaluating an athletic program. The track team has participated in only one meet this year. Eleven boys made the trip to Emory and entered nine of the seventeen events. Although only one boy had ever represented LaGrange in track, they scored more points than last year's team. On the basis of this "dismal" performance, I am sure that members of the track team will If there are any male members of the Senior Class who would like to go into Department Store work as a profession we For That would like for you to contact us here in LaGrange on Main Special Girl Street.

I am not concerned that you see nothing worthwhile in being a member of, or observing our teams in action, since the Hilltop News seems to be having difficulty in finding anything worthwhile that is connected with LaGrange College. However, I would suggest that you contact some members of these teams. Perhaps they could enlighten you. Ronald Luke A Few Pet Gripes: How about the "new" HTN. Where is It new? Look again at the caricature depicting an LC revival. It appears that Christ is moving out of the picture as he must have moved out of mind and heart of a minority of the LC Infidels. HTN is new in that respect. It now reflects irreverence, and shameful disrespect for that which is sacred. It appears that Manget is now the point where Tobacco Road and Calvary meet. Many a silent viewer watched with disgust at the sacrilegious display with vilest contempt for the partakers of the Good Friday fiasco. Hebrews Inc. should put on Act Two and Three so Christians can witness the reenactment of the Crucifixion, Death and Burial since they only saw the cross-carrying scene. Rehearsal and try-out halls are flooding with volunteers who want to drive the nails in, pierce the side, and bury the modern "Kreiss." No one cares if he either survives the first rehearsal or ever rises again especially certain professors and students. As for the version of an Oral Roberts tent show, perhaps many should have crawled forward on hands and knees begging to be purged of the rotten filth in their diseased minds. It is believed that Satan would repent if he saw any of them coming his way. Like cancer, the corruption has spread in a social vein also. Certain whites fctel they cannot live with the shadow of a "different" person sharing his sunlight. Even basest animals have no prejudice. Where will the prejudiced few go in the next life? Both heaven and hell are integrated since all men were once created equal. Religious infamy and social indignation seem to be the foundation of certain student standards of morals. These are the gems of society, and will hopefully be exterminated by a more sensible generation. By the way, the hope of the members of the losing team is that it will not quit and perhaps with fewer members seeking unde served credit, and more with admirable spirit, it wiU come back a winner. We lose, but we try, and try hard, with all the effort we have. Larry Joe Kinsman Surely you're putting us on.Ed.

Turner FIRST FEDERAL AN INSTITUTION FOR SAVINGS AND HOME OWNERS SAVINGS and LOAN ASSOCIATION LaGrange, Georgia MEMBER FSLIC Student of the week Carter to do hospital work By TOM HUGHES John Carter, HTN Student of the "'sek, is a senior from Joplin, Missouri, majoring in Business Administration. Since John's arrival in 1962, he has seen many changes here at LaGrange; among those are the construction of the campus sanctuary and the library. He has also seen a marked trend towards a less provincial administration. JOHN CARTER Carter has been a member of the Legislative Council, Circle K (of which he is serving as Vice President), appeared on the LC stage in "No Time For Sergeants," worked on the stage crew for "Royal Gambit" and is currently working on "Once Upon A Mattress.' John also has written for the HTN for three years and is Sports and Greek editor of the Quadrangle this year. Pi Delta Kappa is John's Greek choice, and he has served as fraternity historian and secretary. The Quadrangle will reflect John's name as one of LC's outstanding Seniors. John thought the most outstanding feature of last Friday's lunch "was the manner in which the food remained upon the plate even when turned upside down." We asked John about the possibility of the administration ever repealing the "18th admendment," and he replied dryly, "I think it's forseeable in the near future." "As far as my most personally satisfying experience, I would have to say my fraternity association, because of a ture feeling of brotherhood which I feel is often lacking in national fraternities. Further, I don't think that we, as members of LaGrange's three local fraternities, are losing that much when compared to the large nationals." John will graduate in June and hopes to teach school for a year in Clayton County, and then do graduate work in the area of hospital administration. Student poll By BOBBY PAYNE "Do you favor the option of buying lunch tickets instead of paying for your meals in one sum at the beginning of each quarter?" DEAN HAWTHORNE: "It seems to me that it should be only fair that we pay only for the meals which we eat. As it stands now, those who leave on the weekends are paying more than $4.00 per weekend for meals they never see, not to mention any meals which they should miss during the week. BROOKS SHELHORSE: "I so rarely miss a meal, I feel that by paying for the meals at the beginning of each quarter I get a savings, but I feel that it should be left up to the individual. For some students a meal ticket would mean a large saving. MARTHA HAINES: "I think we should buy meal tcketsbythe quarter, because half the time I don't go to meals, especially when I'm away on weekends. DINAH TUCKER: "Buying $10 meal tickets would be much more beneficial to students at LaGrange College. The current practice of buying quarter meal tickets is wasteful and certainly not economical when not all meals are eaten and students leave for weekends. JOHN CARTER: "Yes, I feel that student behavior toward the cafeteria would be better if they knew they did not have to eat a meal and were not paying for it. One wastes money on weekends when he is away, when one over sleeps and when one cannot sto- mach the food, and this is a waste of money. PAUL COOK: "The meal ticket option would be a great help to those students who eat only two meals a day at school, or seldom eat at school on the would not benefit from the option, regularly at the school cafeteria would not benefit from the option said option perhaps even being detrimental to them. I think that the option should be offered, if practical, because a large number of students would probably benefit from it." The staff of this rag will I meet tonight at 6 p.m. in the newsroom.

I know they are going to be hard to replace, individually, but we are going to try and replace them. It may be with individuals that play a little bit differently than these boys, but we probably will have as good ball players as we had'. Their skills may be different, but it's just a matter of blending them together and making a workable outfit with them. The prospects right now look real good." These were Coach Mariotti's words as he was recently interviewed by the HTN. The coach was then asked to comment on the new players he recently obtained. "Presently we have two junior college boys, and I would like to get one more. This would give the team a junior college boy at the center position, one at forward, and one at guard, inabling the team to have boys with some experience who won't find it too difficult to adjust to our. style. This basketball, by the' way, is as good as basketball (small college basketball) as they play anywhere." In the next question Coach was asked to relate some of the difficulties he encounters in recruiting new players, both from junior colleges, and from high schools. "This business of recruiting has a lot of angles. One of the factors in it is that we offer an A.B. degree, but I'm not gripping about that at all because I think that it's a more valuable degree than a B.S. degree. A lot of the boys that are junior college boys do not have a language background, and unless the* Pi Delts win Volleyball The last series in the interfraternity voUeyball games was played on Tuesday night. Gamma Phi and Pi Delt were still very much in contention for the title. Although Pi Delt had a slight edge percentage - wise, a loss to the Goblins would have cost them the title. The action on the floor was a tough as it has ever been and in the first game Gamma Phi took Phi Delt 15-5. The second game saw the Delt's take revenge by a score cf 14-9. The third and last game was the most exciting. At the end of regulation time the two teams were all tied up at 15-15. In the overtime the Delt's came on to score three points to the Gobblin's, and thus captured the '65 - '66 title. Two other series were played that night. In the first one Gamma Phi took two games from the Knights of Sigma Nu, 1510, 15-5. In the last of the series, PI Delts second team lost to the Nu's in three games, 5-15, 15.1, 14-9.

But I don't think that this is a major factor in recruiting. One of the biggest factors is that we are competing with, not major colleges for the good boys, but also against the junior colleges. In some instances the junior college offers a high school boy a better scholarship than a four year college can offer, and we have several junior colleges in the state that offer full scholarships. Boys these days are looking for the best deal they can possibly get. One of the main points we use in inducing a boy to come here is that we have a good academic program. We try to impress them and influence them in'that way. Accordingly, most of the boys we get are good boys academically. Last year's record will attest to that. I think the major problem is that there is so much competition." "There are two things that effect a basketball program. One is the entrance exams, and the other is the number of scholarships that you can offer. I know that our school is probably a little harder to get into than some of the other schools that we have to compete against. Although this reduced the total number that would be suitable for a particular school, as far as the scholarships are concerned, the more boys you have the more personnel it's going to require, that is coaching personnel....K takes at least fifteen, players to start a season. You are going to lose maybe two through academic difficulties, and you arei going to be real lucky to go through a season without an inju ry of some sort that will keep one or maybe two of your key players out of a number of games. Naturally we would like to have more scholarships, but the present situation is not hampering the team'.« prospects." When asked what single factor the coach would like to see improved, he answered: "Probably overall, though we have done an excellent job, Ithink what success we have had in the past was a result of shooting. We have had good shooters, and I think they are primarily responsible for our winning as many games as we have. What we need to improve the most on is our defense. That would probably be our weakest department. The reason for this is we lacked the team speed. In order to play good defense, you have to have quick, agile, speedy types of boys. If you can't move you can't play defense. We have had one or two boys that play, but we have to get five boys that can play defense. I believe that his would be the phase of our game that would need most improvement." P.M. P.M. P.M. P.M. P.M. P.M.
