Drama Dept. to Give 
Miner's 'After the FaU' 



Hoiirs Changed 
For Residence Halls 



A majtMT change in the social lives of Clar- 
km State College women students is the ex- 
tension of hours to midnight on weeisdays and 
Suoday, and to 2 a.m. on Friday and Satur- 
day nights. 

Last year, the Women's Residence Hall 
Board consisted of Connie Carter, chairman; 
Linda Ummer, Carole Reis, Carol Minchoff, 
Judy Macuga, Marg Butler, Elaine McGui- 
ian, Leslie Hudak, and Ginny Elish. The 
board set up an "ad hoc" committee for the 
Investigation of extended hours and petitioned 
for thene later hours; this summer W. R. B. 
and the Associatto* of Women Students re- 
ceived the news o< the extended hours from 
the administration. W R. B. exists under the 
supervision of A. W. S., the largest women's 
organizatioo on our campus. 

The A. W. S. Council for the 1958-69 school 
season is teaded by Leslie Hudak, president. 
Members of the executive board are Marg 
Butler, vice-president; Pat Losik, treasurer; 
Sandy Bordiek, recording secretary; and 
Jeanne Struble, corresponding secretary. The 
council consists of these women and Ellen 
filough, I. A. W. S. contact, and Marsha Kra- 
marlk, PanHellenic representative. The new 
council took their offices last spring. 

The first project of the year for the new 
council was the "Big Sister-Little Sister" 
party, held September 25. The "Big Sister- 
Little Sister" program i.s one designed to 
help orient freshman women with Clarion be- 
fore their actual arrival on campus. During 
the summer, upperclnsswomen arc each as- 
signed an incoming freshman woman to 
whom they write letters in which they ans- 
wer many of the questions freshmen have 
about campus life. At the annual party, whose 
theme this year was "Flower Power," skits 
entertained the 500 women students. Each 
iHg sister made a flower nametag for her- 
self and her litUe sister in the hope that 
theirs would win the prizes which were given 
for oHginality, color and de.sign, and effect. 



The Department <d Speech and Dramatic 
Arts of Clarion State College will op^n iti 
1968-69 season Wednesday, October 2. with 
"After the Fall," a play by ArUwr MUter. 

"Ttiis is not a play about' something, hope- 
fully, it is somethiag. And primarily it is 
a way of looking at man and his human 
nature as the ^y source of tiye violence 
which has come closer and closer to destroy- 
ing the race. It is a view which does not 
look toward social or political ideas as the 
creators of violence, but into the nature of 
the human being himself. The one commmi 
denominator in all violent acts is the human 
being," so says Arthur Miller. 

The action takes place in the mind, thought, 
and memory of Qu^atin. Excepting for one 
chair there is no furniture in the convention- 
al sense, no walls or substantial boundaries. 
People appear and disappear instantaneously, 
as in the mind; but it is not necessary that 
they walk off the tage. The dialogue will 
make clear who is "alive" at any moment 
and who is in aLeyaace. 

The Clarion production of "After the FaU" 
will play through October 5, at the college 
chapel. Students arc requested to turn their 
titeatre passes for reserved seats at the col- 
lege chapel beginning Monday, September 
30, to Friday, October 4, betwaan 1 and 4 
p.m. daily. 

The production will be directed by Bob 
H. Copeland and the cast is headed by John 
Solomon and Connie Carter. Mr. Solomon 
will portray Qu6ntin, in whose mind the play 
takes place. We shall move through his levels 
of memory and guilt and redempticHi during 
liis life. Miss Carter as Maggie. Quentin's 
second wife, the most vivid, pitiable, terrify- 
ing female character in the American theater 
since Blanche DuBois of Tennessee Williams' 
"Streetcar Named Desire." Veronica Smith, 
Pat Losick, Pam McFeathers, Lynn McGa- 
han, Judy Cross, Herb Michaels, Steve 
Brezzo, and Phil Ross are tlie other major 
roles. The t(rtal cast uumbcrs 25. 

ITie forthcoming production will be a new 
and unique experience for theater-goers, ac- 
cording to Director Copeland. 

Clarion State's Department of Speech and 
Dramatic Arts is planning a full season of 
standard and experimental theater produc- 
tions.

o* English, who has been appointed faculty 
advisor for the Call. He has replaced Mr. 
Willard Mecklenburg, former advisor and 
public relations director, who left Claritwi to 
accept a position with the Pittsburgh Press. 
A current report, however, indicates that Mr. 
Mecklenburg is now working at Duquesne 
University.

Flawless Style 
By Bong Hi Kim 
Evokes Ovation 

Playing before an enthusiastic audience 
which fiUed the College Chapel on Wednesday 
night. Dr. Bong Hi Kim, at her first appear- 
ance at Clarion State College, revealed com- 
plete mastery of musical style and total com- 
mand of pianlstlc technique. 

Her playing throughout the evening was 
characterized by her personal involvement 
in the music she was playing, and by the 
seeming ease with which every technical and 
musical demand was met. Her exciting per- 
formance was greeted by an enthusiastic ova- 
tion. 

Dr. Kim's flawless sense of style was evi- 
dent throughout the evening. Four sonatas 
by Scarlettl were performed with clarity and 
precision, and with subtle shading of dyna- 
mics and expressive phrasing. In "The Fan- 
tasia in C Major" by Robert Schumann, Dr. 
Kim was fully equal to the wi<fe range of 
emotion and dramatic contrast demanded by 
the music. The slower movement of this fan- 
tasia was one of the highlights of the evening. 

Three pieces by Debussy, including the 
more familiar "Reflections in the Water," 
presented another aspect of Dr. Kim's com- 
mand of expressive tone color. The shimmer- 
ing and elusive atmospheric quality which 
Is a hallmark of Debussey's music was ef- 
fectively recreated by Dn Kim. 

Two Hungarian composers were represent- 
ed on the program, Bela Bartok, whose re- 
search into the true folk music of his coun- 
try is well known, and Franz Liszt, whose 
music reflects the captivating charm and 
rapidly shifting moods of Hungarian gypsy 
music. Dr. Kim's performance of Liszt's "12- 
th Hungarian Rhapsody" was in the tradi- 
tion of the great Liszt virtuosos, pianists 
of the recent past whose playing of Liszt's 
music revealed the essential beauties of the 
gypsy melodies and dance rhythms without 
being in any way obscured by the decora- 
tive arabesques with which Liszt surrounded 
them. 

Dr. Kim Is an associate professor of music 
who joined the Clarion faculty in September. 
She has appeared In concerts and recitals 
in Korea as well as in the United States. 

Cheerleaders Named 

The selection of the 1968-69 CSC cheerlead- 
Ing squad was made following try-outs last 
week. The girls were chosen according to 
their performance of the cheers and execution 
of skills. The following girls were chosen: 
Dawn ^edorka. Candy James, Mary Joyce 
Kapp, and Kathy Faust. These girls will work 
with last year's chee.leaders, Janice Day 
and Barb Dlmmerling, and together they will 
comprise a six-^rl squad.

Memory Now Being Created 



A memorial service for Gloria Yough, as- 
sociate professor of health and physical ed- 
ucation who died iu August, will be held' 
at 3 p.m. Wednesday in the dance studio 
of the Waldo S. Tippin Gymnasium. 

Miss Yough died suddenly of a heart attack 
at her home in Clarion on August 15 and 
was buried in Petrolia on August 19. She 
Imd taught at Clarion State College for seven 
years and was widely admired by students 
and by other faculty members. 

At the memorial service Wednesday, speak-

Dr. Harold E. Simmons, director of profes- 
sional studies; and Mr. Waldo S. Tippin, em- 
eritus professor of education and former di- 
rector of athletics. The Madrigal Singers,

Miss Yough earned both a bachelor's de- 
gree and a master's degree in physical edu- 
cation at the University of Michigan. She 
had completed all but one of the courses 
required for the doctorate at the University 
of Pittsburgh. In addition, she had studied 
ai. Pennsylvania State University and the Un- 
iversity of Oslo (Norway). 

She was instrumental in planning the cur- 
riculum in health' and physical education for 
students majoring In elementary education, 
and in the fall term, 1967, she taught the 
first graduate course in physical education 
?t Clarion State College. Miss Yough attended 
several workshops in movement education 
and in synchronized and speed swimming;'' 
in addition, she taught a workshop in move- 
ment education, in September 1967, for ele- 
mentary school teachers of Clarion County. 

Last year Miss Yough formed and taught 
the nucleus of a synchronized swimming 
class. The class, which was held at the Brtwk- 
vlUe Y, was planned as the start of a sj^Ti- 
chronized swimming program in the new col- 
lege natatorium. She also formed the first 
ski club at Qarion State and was the club 
sponsor from 1960 to 1966. 

In addition to her leadership in physical 
education, Miss Yough was serving her se- 
cond term as an elected member of the Fa- 
culty Senate. She was also an accomplished 
oboist and clarinetist and In 1960 played In 
the College Symphwiy Orchestra. 

The Reverend David J. Lutz of the Campus 
Ministry will give tiie be^^ctuA. 



Arrangements have been made to create 
» scholarship in memory of Gloria Yough, 
associate professor ot health and physical 
education, who died in August. Friends of 
Miss Yough in both ihe college and the com- 
munity may make jifts in her name to the 
Clarion State College Scholarship Fund. 

A scholarship in her memory is appropriate 
not only because of ihe high regard in which 
Miss Yough was h«ld by her colleagues and 
her students but also because, on a number 
of occasions, she helped out, anonymously, 
students who were in financial need. 

The college scholarship fund Is adminis- 
tered by the Office of Financial Aid, which 
is under the directicMi of Robert C. Sege- 
barth. 

Last week a number of faculty members 
paid tribute to Miss Yough: 

Pearl Bonner: "Gioria believed in a dream 
for a new kind of education for children in a 
gyp. I know that she was often fearful that 
thip program would not be successful. But 
she went on believing and working toward 
her goal." 

Peggy Curry: "As a teacher of a graduate 

class, Gloria was exciting. As a teacher of 

chiMren, Gloria was soft-spoken and patient. 

She valued each child as an individual and 

Jjelieved in self-improvement for each child." 

Helen Knuth: "It's not going to be easy 
to find someone to take Gloria's place. She 
had the unusual combination of a first-rate 
intetligence, a real Interest in scholarship, 
good common sense, the ability to enjoy life 
and to enjoy her work, and a genuine con- 
cern for other people. She was fun to be 
with and was a real addition to any social 
gathering." 

Pauline Wiberg: "I remember Gloria as 
lit^ch a warm, friendly person with kind con- 
sideration for all, a person with a great 
sense of humor, making each meeting with 
her a pleasure." 

Students also paid tribute to Miss Yough: 

hmiis Mete: "Any student who has had 
U'.e good fortune to have Miss Gloria Yough 
Bb an instructor, as I did, surely must realize 
what a great loss we share, and how sin- 
cerely we will miss her. She had a unique 
quality in the devotion she portrcyed as a 
teacher, in the interest she showed in her 
students, and in the friendly attitude she 
always had both in and out of class." 

Roberta Baum: "I found Miss Yough to 
be a verj' warm pers«j. Her death was an 
extreme shock to me, as it was my first 
experience In losing a very competent teach- 
er and also a cl<^e friend." 



Fine Arts 
Cornerstone 
Is Placed 



In a ceremony which was threatened at 
the start by light raio. the cornerstone at 
the new Fine Arts Center was laid Thursday, 
September 19. 

The program began with the playing of 
the national anthem by the Clarion State 
College Marching Band, under the direction 
of Dr. Stanley F. Miehalski, Then the Rev. 
Dr. Eldon K. Somers of the Campus Ministry 
gave the invocation, in which he spoke of 
the Fine Arts Center as a "pulpit of artistic 
and dramatic college achievements." Preced- 
ing the introduction of the guests by the 
program's host, Dr. Elbert R. Moses, Chair- 
man of the Department of Speech and Dra- 
matic Arts, was "Grace My Lovely One, 
Fair Beauties," sung by the Clarion Madrigal 
Singers. Dr. Moses then presented Dr. James 
Gemmell, the president of Clarion State Col- 
lege, who spoke a few words about the build- 
ing Itself, stating that the new center would 
have two auditoriums with seating capacities 
of 1700 and 250, as compared with the audi- 
torium now in use which has a capacity 
of 450 at the most. 

Representing the General State Authority 
was Robert E. Linker, executive assistant 
to R(^bert L. Kunzig, who discussed the many 
changes on state college campuses. Mr. Link- 
er also assured the .audience of faculty mem- 
bers, college trustees and students that the 
building is progressing on schedule. The sch- 
eduled date for completion is July 31, 1969. 

Participating In ihe trowelling ceremony, 
In which each person placed a trowel xtt 
cement In the space reserved for the comer- 
stone, were President Gemmell; Mr. Linker; 
Mr. Joseph Spencc, chairman of the Depart- 
ment of Art: Dr. Robert Van Meter, chair- 
man of the Department of Music; Dr. Moses; 
Mr. E. Clinton Stttt, Board of Trustees; Mr. 
Iliomas J. Paolino, president of the Student 
Senate; and Miss Leshe Hudak, president 
of ti^ Association of Women Students. 

Following the ceremony, Mr. Stltt not?d 
that the Fine Arts Center is another milestone 
in the growth of Clarion State College, and 
that the trustees of Clarion were justifiably 
proud of that growth. The Madrigal Singers, 
under the direction of William M. McDonald, 
performed "Fire, Fire My Heart," after 
which Rev. Somers gave the benediction, do- 
sing the program was the Clarion State C<^- 
lege Alma Mater. 



Registration 
fs Revised 



With the tolling of school bells across the 
nation, the students of Clarion State College 
returned to discover that registration, a once 
dreaded ordeal, has been revised. A process 
once requiring hours of standing in lines was 
reduced to a reasonably small amount of 
time. 

There are 2,912 full-time undergraduate 
students enrolled at Clarion this year, and 
there are 298 full-time undergraduate stu- 
dents enrolled at Venango. Clarion, this year, 
has 217 part-time students enrolled, and there 
are 47 part-time students enrolled at Venan- 
go. Full-time graduate students number 14, 
and there are 244 part-time graduate students 
enrolled. Total enrollment numbers 3,732, ac- 
cording to Mrs. Phyllis Elder, college regis- 
trar. 

In an Interview with Bryce Gray, adminis- 
trative assistant to the Dean of Academic 
Affairs, it was discovered that 500 of the 
total enrollment registered early. On Friday. 
September 6, the band members, the football 
players, and the student residents registered. 
Seniors, who are student teaching this semes- 
ter registered by mail. By the fall of 1970, 
it is hoped that many of the upperclassmen 
will be able to register by mail, and even- 
tually this will encompass all students. 

The congestion in the fees office will be 
hard to alleviate because of the number of 
students receiving scholarships and govern- 
ment loans. There Is no way for the fees 
office to know the amount of a scholarship 
or a loan until the state sends these forms. 
More often than ncrt, these forms do not 
reach the college until after registration. 

According to Mr. Gray, students of Claricm 
can not choose the classes and professors 
they want because one class will become 
overcrowded and another class will have 
practically no students. Another problem is 
Uiat students try to schedule all their classes 
in the morning or in the afternoon thus leav- 
ing too much time open. 

In the near future, schedule changes may 
all be made in the IBM room in Pelrce 
Center. TTiis would eliminate the moving from 
room to room only to discover a class ju^ 
added is closed. 

Even though some improvements have been 
ma^, rep^ratira will i^ver be a picnic, 
but will be made eaner in the coming yean.

Hours Changed 
For Residence Halls 



A major change in the social lives of Clar- 
ion State College women students is the ex- 
tension of hours to midnight on weekdays and 
Sunday, and to 2 a.m. on Friday and Satur- 
day nights. 

Last year, the Women's Residence Hall 
Board consisted of Connie Carter, chairman; 
Linda Ummer, Carole Rcis, Carol Minchoff, 
Judy Macuga, Marg Butler, Elaine McGui- 
gtn. Leslie Hudak, and Ginny Elish. The 
board set up an "ad hoc " committee for the 
investigation of extended hours and i>etitioned 
for these later hours; this summer W. R. B. 
and the Asssociation of Women Students re- 
ceived the news of the extended hours from 
the administration. W R. B, exists under the 
supervision of A. W. S., the largest women's 
organization on our campus. 

The A. W. S. Council for the IQ'JS-Cg school 
season is headed by Leslie Hudak, president. 
Members of the executive board are Marg 
Butler, vice-president; Pat Losik, treasurer; 
Sandy Bordick, recording secretary; and 
Jeanne Struble, corresponding secretary. The 
council consists of these women and Fallen 
Blough, L A. W. S. contact, and Marsha Kra- 
marik, PanHelienic representative. The new 
council tt>ok their offices last spring. 

The first project of the year for the new 
council was the "Big Sister-Little Sister" 
party, held September 25. The "Big Sister- 
Little Sister ' program is one designed to 
help orient freshman women with Clarion be- 
fore their actual arrival on campus. During 
tlic summer, upperclasswomon arc each as- 
signed an incoming freshman woman to 
whom they write letters in which they ans- 
wer many of the questions freshmen have 
about campus life. At the annual party, whose 
theme this year was "Flower Power," skits 
entertained the 500 women students. Each 
big sister made a flower nametag for her- 
self and her little sister in the hope that 
theirs would win the prizes which were given 
for originality, color and design, and effect. 



The Department of Speech and Dramatic 
Arts of Clarion Stale College will open its 
1968-69 season Wednesday, October 2, with 
"After the Fall," a play by Arthur Miller. 

"This is not a play 'about' something, hope- 
fully, it is something. And primarily it is 
a way of looking at man and his human 
nature as the only source of the violence 
which has come closer end closer to destroy- 
ing the race It is a view which does not 
look toward social or political ideas as the 
creators of violence, but into the nature of 
the human being himself. The one common 
denominator in all violent acts is the human 
being," so says Arthur Miller. 

The action takes place in the mind, thought, 
and memory of Qu -ntin. Excepting for one 
chair there is no funiicure in the convention- 
al sense, no walls or substantial boundaries. 
People appear and disappear instantaneously, 
as in the mind; but it is not necessary that 
they walk off the tage. The dialogue will 
make clear who is "alive" at any moment 
and who is in sLcyance. 

The Clarion production of "After the Fall" 
will play through October .5, at the college 
chapel. Students arc requested to turn their 
theatre passes for reserved seats at the col- 
lege chapel beginning Monday, September 
30, to Friday, October 4, between 1 and 4 
p.m. daily. 

The production will be directed by Bob 
II. Copeiand and the cast is headed by John 
Solomon and Connie Carter. Mr. Solomon 
will portray Quontin, in whose mind the play 
takes place. We shall move through his levels 
of memory and guili and redemption during 
his life. Miss Carter as Maggie, Quentin's 
second wife, the most vivid, pitiable, terrify- 
ing female character in the American theater 
since Blanche DuBoi.s of Tennessee Williams' 
"Streetcar Named Desire.'" Veronica Smith, 
Pat Losick, Pam McFeathers, Lynn McGa- 
han, Judy Cross. Herb Michaels, Steve 
Brezzo, and Phi! Ross aro the other major 
roles. The total cast numbers 25. 

The forthcoming production will be a new 
and unique experience for theater-goers, ac- 
cording to Director Copeiand. 

Clarion State's Department of Speech and 
Dramatic Arts is planning a full season of 
standard and experimental theater produc- 
tions.

belie\ed in self-improvement for each child." 

Helen Knuth: "It's not going to be easy 
to find s,)meone to take Gloria's place. She 
had the unusual combination of a first-rate 
intelligence, a real interest in scholarship, 
good common sens?, the ability to enjoy life 
and to enjoy her work, and a genuine con- 
cern for other people. She was fun to be 
with and was a real addition to any social 
gathering." 

Pauline Wiberg: "I remembc- Gloria as 
such a warm, friendly person with kind con- 
sideration for all. a per.son with a great 
sense of humcir. making o;!ch meeting with 
her a pleasure " 

Students also p liJ tribute to Miss Yough: 
Louis Mete: "Any student who has had 
the good fortune to have .Miss Gloria Yough 
a-j an instructor, as I did, surely must realize 
what a great loss we share, and how sin- 
cerely we will miss her She had a unique 
quality in the devotion she portrryed as a 
teacher, in the interest she showed in her 
students, and in the friendly attitude she 
always had both in and out of class." 

Roberta Baum: "I found Miss Yough to 
be a very warm porson. Her death was an 
extreme shock to me. as it was my first 
experience m losmn a very competent teach- 
er and also a close friend." 



Fine Arts 
Cornerstone 
Is Placed 



In a ceremony which was threatened at 
the start by light rain, the corncr,stone of 
the new Fine Arts Center was laid Thursday, 
September 19. 

The program began with the playing of 
the national anthem by the Clarion Stale 
College Marching Band, under the direction 
of Dr. Stanley F. I'^iichalski. Then the Rev. 
Dr. Eldon K. Somers of the Campus Ministry 
gave the invocation, in which he spoke of 
the Fine Arts Center as a "pulpit of artistic 
and dramatic college achievements. " Preced- 
ing the introduction of the guests by the 
program's host. Dr. Elbert R. Moses, Chair- 
man of the Department of Speech and Dra- 
matic Arts, was "Grace My Lovely One, 
Fair Beauties," sung by the Clrrion Madrigal 
Singers. Dr. Moses then presented Dr. James 
Gemmell, the president of Clarion State Col- 
lege, who spoke a few words about the build- 
ing it.self, stating that the new center would 
have two auditoriums with seating capacities 
of 1700 and 250, as compared with the audi 
torium now in use which has a capacity 
of 450 at the most. 

Representing the General State Authority 
v.as Robert E. Linker, executive assistant 
to Robert L. Kunzij, who discussed the many 
changes on state college campu.scs, Mr. Link- 
er ahso assured the judience of faculty mem- 
bers, college trustees and students that the 
building is progressing on schedule. The sch- 
eduled date for completion is July 31, 1969. 

Participating in tile trowelling ceremony, 
in which each person placed a trowel t)£ 
cement in the spaco reserved for the corner- 
stone, were President Gemmell; Mr. Linker; 
Mr. Joseph Spence, chairman of the Depart- 
ment of Art; Dr. Robert Van Meter, chair- 
man of the Department of Music; Dr. Moses; 
Mr. E. Clinton Stitt, Board of Trustees; Mr. 
Thomas J. Paolino. president of the Student 
Senate; and Miss Leslie Hudak. president 
of the Association of Women Students, 

Following the ceremony, .Mr. Stitt not"d 
that the Fine Arts Center is another milestone 
in the growth of Clarion Stato College, and 
that the trustees of Clarion were justifiably 
proud of that growth. The Madrigal Singers, 
under the direction of William M. McDonald, 
performed "Fire, Fire My Heart, " after 
which Rev. Somers gave the benediction. Clo- 
sing the program wis the Clarion State Col- 
lege Alma Mater. 



Registration 
fs Revised 



With the tolling of school bells across the 
nation, the students of Clarion State College 
returned to discover that registration, a once 
dreaded ordeal, has been revised. A process 
once requiring hours of standing in lines was 
reduced to a reasonably small amount of 
time. 

There are 2,912 full-time undergraduate 
.students enrolled at Clarion this year, and 
there are 298 full-time undergraduate stu- 
dents enrolled at Venango. Clarion, this year, 
has 217 part-time students enrolled, and there 
are 47 part-time students enrolled at Venan- 
go. Full-time graduate students number 14. 
and there are 244 part-time graduate .students 
enrolled. Total enrollment numbers 3.732, ac- 
cording to Mrs. Pliyliis Elder, college regis- 
trar. 

In an interview with Bryce Gray, adminis- 
trative assistant to the Dean of Academic 
Affairs, it was discovered that 500 of the 
total enrollment registered early. On Friday, 
September 6, the band members, the football 
piayers, and the student residents registered. 
Seniors, who are student teaching this semes- 
ter registered by mail. By the fall of 1970, 
it is hoped that m^ny of the upperclassmen 
will be able to regl.iter by mail, and even- 
tually this will encompass all students. 

The congestion in the fees office vvill be 
hard to alleviate because of the number of 
students receiving scholarships and govern- 
ment loans. There is no way for the fees 
office to know the amount of a scholarship 
or a loan until the state sends these forms. 
More often than not. these forms do not 
reach the college until after registration. 

According to Mr. Gray, students of Clarion 
can not choose the clas.ses and professors 
they want because one class will become 
overcrowded and another class will have 
practically no students. Another problem is 
that students try to schedule all their classes 
in the morning or in tlic afternoon thus leav- 
ing too much time open. 

In the near future, schedule changes may 
all be made in the IBM room in Peirce 
Center. This would eliminate Uie moving from 
room to room only to discover a class just 
added is closed. 

Even though some improvements have been 
made, registration will never be a picnic, 
but will be made easier in the coming vears.

THE CALL — Clarion State College, Clarion, Pennsylvania 



Saturday, September 28, 1968 



Editorially 
Speaking 



Introducing: 'The Glad Year' 



A new century of learning has be- 
l gun here at (Marion State College— a 
I new beginning of academic and social 
j activities for all of usv^bo now find 
j ourselves on this campus. Both new 
and familiar faces surround us as we 
] prepare ourselves for what we hope 
' will be a goodyear — the "glad" year. 
The "glad" year includes an air of 
dignity, a de.sire for change,. and a need 
' tor successful accomplisliment. , Every 
segment of this college is lool^ng for 
and reaching towards greater |ieights 
' and more spectacular feats. |n foot- 
ball, for example, we look,i#rward to 
regaining our State Chamfionship 
, crown. Likewise, in drama Iin4 music, 
. we plan to have noteworthy=!'i^rform- 
! ances that will make our scHopl an out- 
standing contributor to the' fiije arts. 
The list could go on to includ^ even the 
i mo.st minute phase of lif'e on Campus, 
but the final conclusion points to one 



direction: we have an earnest desire to 
be singled out as a progressive student 
, body. Our policy, therefore, elimin- 
. ates mediocrity and paves the way for 
leadership, for recognition of top-notch 
achievement in each of our endeavors. 

The Call is being swept along with 
this new winning attitude. Conse- 
quently, we are striving for a student 
newspaper that will make each of us 
proud, that will keep us all informed 
of what is happening around us. We 
have a new advisor, a new staff, and 
new ideas to help achieve our goals. 
t We have all this, and yet we need help 
I — your help. We want and encourage 
I your ideas, your suggestions, and your 
, contributions. We therefore encourage 
I you, as students, to submit articles and 
letters to help make your Call a special 
I part of the "glad" year.

The Young Politics 



As the election year of '1968 goes 
into its final months, one political de- 
velopment is becoming increasingly 
clear. This development is the en- 
trance of youth onto the American po- 
litical scene. One has only to read the 
front page of any newspaper or browse 
through the pages of one of the week- 
ly magazines to see the evidence. Amer- 
ican politics is fai becoming the re- 
sponsibility of young America. 

We at Clarion State .College must 

recognize our duty to take a,n active 

part in this political youth movement. 

As the voice of yoiang America grows 

louder, Clarion students must not fall 

rby the wayside in apathy,- And further- 

' more, we must not sanction the views 

and actions of a few college students 

, by our silence. When a small group 

. of misled college students display a 

I Viet Cong flag, the integrity of' all 

' college students is shaken. We at 

i Clarion must not be identified with 

this small irresponsible group of shal- 



j low thinkers. Instead we should make 
ourselves familiar with political ideol- 
ogies, issues, and candidates and make 
I ourselves be heard. We are obligated 
! as citizens of a democratic society to 
1 be well informed and active in its poli- 
I tical structure. 

We are fortunate enough at Clar- 
ion to have several organizations 
through which any student may be- 
come active in politics. We have chap- 
ters of Young Republicans and Young 
Democrats, and a college newspaper 
that is interested in the opinion of the 
student body. We also have a chapter 
of the Intercollegiate Conference on 
Government that provides a means for 
gaining insight into our government. 
The students of Clarion State College 
have no excuse for being ignorant of 
their nation's political processes. The 
opportunity is here; let's take advan- 
tage of it.

LETTERS 



Tc the Students of Clarion State: 

As members of last year's Student Senate 
Social Commlltee and this year's Student Ac- 
tivities Committee, we were nther upset 
upon registering to learn that our social cal- 
endar had been radically revised without 
consulting us. Eiglitctu major changes were 
made for the first scmester-^our question is 
"Why?" 

On .April 24th and May 8th of List semester 
v/e arranged a social calendar within the 
limits of our budgets, which met with the 
approval of the Dean of Student Affairs of- 
fice. However, the schedule wag changed, 
and we feel that the students deserve to 
know why these ch.tnges wore made. 

The following is a list of the chftnges that 
were made: 

SEPTEMBER 11, dance— caiwcUed; 15— 
movie — cancelled; 20, dbitce^r-cancelLed; 28, 
dance with combo — changed to record hop. 

OCTOBER 6, movie scheduled which was 
NOT scheduled by committee; 18, dance with 
combo— cancelled; 20, splasfi party^Tiangeld 
to movie; ao— spook movies changed to 31st 
because of conflict. 

NOVEMBER 10, movie scheduled whiqh 
was NOT scheduled by committee; 16, dance 
in Chandler— changed to concert in gym; Iff, 
movie scheduled which was NOT schedulad 
by committee; 25, dance with combo— can- 
celled. » 

DECEMBER 6, skating party with recoiifs 
—changed to Christmas party io gym; fr, 
movie— changed to SUi; 14. Christmas Dante 
in Chandler— changed to 7th in gym; ]^, 
movie scheduled which was NOT scheduMd 
by committee. I 

JANUARY 18, dance scheduled which wis 
NOT scheduled by committee; 19, movte 
scheduled which was NOT scheduled by corti- 
mittee; 28, mixer in gym— cancelled; A., 
movie— cancelled. IT 

We tried to plan acuviues on dates whifn 
other activities were not occurring, and we 
specifically tried to schedule events on tHe 
weekends of away football games. As you 
know, the weekend of the 20-22 was devoid 
of the dance scheduled, except for a hastily 
scheduled emergency union dance, in spite 
of the fact that we h-id scheduled a combo in 



the gym for the weekend. No explanation has 
been given lor tills change, or for any other 
change. 

Who changed our schedule? In an attempt 
to find out, we met with Mrs. Vairo, one of 
tlie new deans of women, who did not know, 
and Dr. Elliott, who claimed that the calen- 
dar committee did it. We did not know such 
a committee existed. Dr. Elliott would not 
tell us, or could not tell us, who was on the 
committee. He said, "I don't know . . . I'm 
annoyed . . . see Tom Paolino, he seems to 
be running the Student Senate." We also 
asked Dr. Elliott why no dance was held on 
tlie 11th. He replied, "It was inappropriate. It 
did not fit, really ... It was just an oppor- 
tunity for upperclassmen to look over fresh- 
men women." Alter v/c tried to get answers 
and got none, and tried to emphasize our 
need for more activities, he told us, "I've 
been preaching this all along." Next we tried 
Dr. Nanovsky. When a.sked why there were 
deletions in our Calendar, he said, "I'll tell 
you why. No place to put them." 

In conclusion, we ao not know who changed 
the Social Committee's original schedule, or 
why; it was done behind our backs— and your 
baeks. We feci as your representatives we 
should let you know that this has happened, 
ao<J we appeal to you if you care about your 
social events to "ask Tom Paolino," and 
vvfioever else you must to find out who made 
the'Vhanges, and why.

Freshmen Face 



Annual Hazing 

This year, as in the past, freshmen are 
becoming acquainted with the campus and 
upperclassmen through the activity known 
as "Frosh Week." From September 24 
through September 28, the freshmen are re- 
ceiving the undivided attention of the student 
body. The rules are basically the same as 
last year's, with two innovations. 

Ill the Administration tsuilding, outside the 
library, is located the Abused Freshman Ar- 
ea. Anyone who feels he is being persecuted 
may bring his complaints to this area. There, 
understanding students wiU stencil the words 
"abused freshman" on the complainant's 
sign. 

As a protective device against overzealous 
upperclassmen, 45 students have been named 
as Frosh Week Leaders. These students pa- 
trol the campus to prevent incidents. Anyone 
getting out of hand will 'be reported for die- 
ciptinary action. 

Kangaroo Court is held every evening, pre- 
sided over by Head Judge Ray (Hoot Owl) 
Lenzi. Other members of the tribunal are 
Greg Pierce, Bill Abbott, Larry Stiner, Jim 
Hubert, and Jerry Muzyka. 

At the pep rally tonight, there may be 
a bonfire in which the freshmen will be per- 
mitted to consign their signs to the flames. 



Mel Allen, well known sports caster, has 
been elected president of the Sports Broad- 
caster's association for the third time in the 
IC-year history of the organization.

What They Did 

A six-day orientation program for new stu- 
dents at Clarion State College was launched 
Friday, September 6, in the college chapel 
with workshops for orientation leaders, re- 
sident assistants and head residents in pre- 
paration for the beginning of classes Septem- 
ber 12. 

Workshop planners established a ratio of 
one leader for every 10 new students in view 
of the 550 new faces expected. The student 
leader group checked in Friday afternoon 
aud attended an evening picnic at Piney Mea- 
dows, near Clarion. 

Saturday's events included a breakfast for 
the leaders and continuation of the workshop 
with an address on "Clarion's Future" by 
Dr. David A. Hilton, assistant to the presi- 
dent. 

The first new students arrived on campus 
Saturday, met with their orient:ition leaders 
and were guests at a welcome dinner and 
orientation dance in the evening. 

Church worship, .student affairs orientation 
and student discussion groups featured Sun- 
day's program, v/itli the President's Recep- 
tion at Chandler Hall, as the climax. 

Monday's highligiits were an academic af- 
fairs orientation, modern language placement 
tests and swimming placement tests. Also 
the first of the now group began registration 
a* the Administration Building Monday after- 
noon at 1 p.m. A meeting with the campus 
ministry and movies in the chapel rounded 
out the day. 

Modem language placement tests, swim- 
ming placement, and registration were con- 
tinued on Tuesday, and there was a hooten- 
anny that night. 

Further testing, registration, and question- 
naires made up the bulk of Wednesday's 
program, in preparation for the first day 
• of, 4asses, Thursday, September 12. 



What They Thought 

A small survey of freshmen who had under- 
gone the orientation process was made to 
determine their opinions of the Clarion pro- 
gram. 

The first question asked was, "What part 
of the program do ycu feel was best pre- 
sented?" Most of the freshmen interviewed 
felt that the tours of the campus were the 
best conducted. Several freshmen contended 
that the president's reception and dinner were 
the -highlight of the program. Third choice 
v^as the student activities orientation. 

The second question asked in the survey 
v/as, "Do you feel that the program helped 
to prepare you for college life?" There were 
a few negative responses, but the majority 
or freshmen interviewed felt that orientation 
helped them to adapt to the life at Clarion 
State. The ways in which they felt they had 
been helped were varied; introductions to 
proniinent administrr.tors and students, infor- 
mation on social and athletic activities, lo- 
cation of- classrooms. Several freshmen were 
grateful to the orientation leaders who took 
time to introduce them to the intricacies 
of registration. 

Finally, those interviewed were asked, "Do 
you have any suggestions for improvement 
of the program?" The response was an over- 
whelming "Yes!" Some felt that orientation 
speakers should either speak louder or get 
a better public address system. Others sug- 
gested that the welcoming speeches should 
be cut and much of the repetition eliminated, 
the reason being that much information was 
lost in the volume. 

It [was suggested that more time be spent 
on campus tours. Several freshmen thought 
that the orientation leaders needed more 
training. A second-semester freshman sug- 
gested that some kind of orientation be pro- 
vided for incoming freshmen in January. 
And, last but not least, there was the fresh- 
man girl who suggested that "Clarion should 
get more comfortable bleachers at the athle- 
tic field and in the gym." 



Debaters 
Hopeful 



Clarion State College is looking forward" to 
another highly successful year for its debat- 
ers. Many of la.st year's varsity debaters will 
lie returning, iu addition to what Dr. R.' A. 
llufford, director of forensics, calls the larg- 
est novice group that has shown interest in 
years. 

The topic to be argued this year is: Re- 
solved, that executive control of foreign pol- 
icy should be signific-ntiy curtailed. 

In a practice debate held on September 19, 
Mary Lou McCauliff and Betty Ferguson (af- 
firmative), and Kay Berkey and Judy Bran- 
dalick (negative), demonstrated their skills. 
These girls were all award winning debaters 
last year. Miss McCauliff of Johnstown took 
top oratory prize at State; Mis.s Ferguson of 
Gibsonia took fifth, while both were on the 
teem which placed second in the state tourna- 
ment. Miss Berkey of Jennerstown and Miss 
Brandalick of Bethel Park won the third place 
trophy at Illinois State. They also received a 
special recognition plaque from William and 
Mary College for their outstanding record of 
7-1 there. Pat Dobson of Penn Hills, a mem- 
ber of last semester'." second place team, is 
another of the varsity debaters returning tliis 
year. 

The first novice tournament of the year 
will be at Dickin.son College in Carlisle, Pa., 
on October 12. Tlie varsity debaters have 
been invited to two tournampnts on the 18th 
and 19th of October at Northern Illinois Uni- 
versity at De Kalb and at the University of 
Detroit. These are both limited meets with 
teams from all ovor the country attending. 

Dr. Hufford is pleased with the number 
and quality of debaters this scme.ster. He has 
said that the tentative schedule for the year 
is a difficult one, with no other college in • 
the East facing such competition. Dr. Hufford 
will head the National Debate Tournament 
in 1969. 



Horoscope 

Many people are wondering what the future 
holds for them. Well, follow your star, CSC 
students, and you'll find what the 1968-69 
school year has tc offer you: 

CAPRICORN (Bom Dec. 22— Jan. 19):

AQUARIUS (Born Jan. 20— Feb. 18): You 
are aware of what's happening. Though you 
are a devoted friend, and you are able to

to handle your own money. For this reason, 
you may find yourself in great financial trou- 
ble this year. 

PISCES (Feb. 19— March 20): Your sensi- 
tivity and unselfishness make you subject 
to displays of temper. You attract many 
friends and have what some might call "sex 
appeal." Be prepared for an exciting autumn. 
Summer means a new romance for you. 

ARIES (March 21— April 19): You are very 
inward. Spend a lot of time this year trying 
to iind what it's all about. Tread lightly 
through November; it may be a tragic month 
fcr you. 

TAURUS (April 20— May 20): You are in- 
tuitive and stand behind every decision you

love. Accept it willingly; you will be glad 
you did.

Look out for your health. Athletes, play each 
game with caution.

inducing drugs cautiously. 

LEO (.luly 23— Aug. 22): You are unusually 
patient and ambitious. Ycu love clothes, orna- 
ments, and people. You will find many loves 
this year, but ignore them. Your education 
should come first. 

VIRGO (Aug. 23— Sept. 22): You are both 
tactful and forgiving. Because of these quali-

stress. Do not despair if you find yourself 
alone. This situation should last only until 
mid-October.

Gemmell Stresses 
Good Teaching 
At Orientation 



Of the three traditional functions of tile 
college and university. Claron State CoUfge 
should emphasize excellence in teaching. Se- 
cond priority should be given research and 
tljird priority to community service. Hiese 
points were highlights of "A Matter of Prior- 
ity," a talk given by President James Gem- 
mell to new faculty members at a faculty 
orientation meeting on September 5. 

"Our first order of business is to foster 
on our campus the best possible means con- 
ducive to learning," said Dr. Gemmell. He 
stressed, however, the importance of re- 
search, which he called a re-interpretsttdn 
and enrichment of knowledge and culture. 
He said also that the college will continue 
to get requests for community service but 
that the college can not "be all things to 
all people." 

In his talk he reviewed college progress 
during the past year and forecast some of 
the changes ahead on "a campus on which 
Uie concrete never seems to set." The con- 
tinued physical growth of the college, Dr. 
Gemmell said, makes even more vital the 
necessity for wise teaching and leadership 
of a student body which is "the best pre- 
pared, most educablc, most lively in the his- 
tory of education." 

The challenges and pressures which stu- 
dents on today's campuses feel make it ne- 
cessary, he said, for the faculty to "look 
at student dissent with the eyes of schol^p 
and the wisdom of the ages." AUhough CUr- 
ion State has been relatively calm, "We can't 
count on its remaining so. And I don't Irapw 
that we should wish it so." 

Dr. Gemmell added, however, that "the 
right to dissent is not a permit to stage 
sil-downs, to intimidate, to use violence, or 
tc be disrespectful of others." 

Before Dr. Gemmell spoke. Dr. John Mel- 
lon, dean of liberal arts, introduced depart- 
ment chairmen, who introduced ne* mem- 
bers of the faculty and staff. 

In the afternoon session of September 5, 
new members of the faculty and others at- 
tended a panel discussion entitled "The Col- 
lege and the Disadvantaged" in the CoUege 
chapel. The speakers were Al Mellman, di- 
rector of the Jewish Community Relations 
Council in Pittsburgh; Dr. Kenneth V^ydili, 
director of special education at the coI|ef4; 
and two representatives of the Pennsylyanla 
Human Relations Commission: Dolores Rozzi 
and Eugene V. Nelson. 

The moderator of tlie discussion wai De'ttn 
Mellon. After short talks by each member 
of the panel, there were questions and com- 
ments from the audience. Some questions 
dealt with statemeq.ts ab<mt the WA5P cuj- 
ture, its strength aud weaknesses: (WASP 
is an acronym for "white Anglo-Saxon pro- 
tfestant.") - ' 

.,0h September 6, the second day of oHeo' 
tation for. new faculty members, they hfgird 
explanations of the advisement program, the 
communication services, and the counseUng 
services. Iii addition, they heard an explana- 
tion of employee benefits by a representative 
of the Pennsylvania Department of Public 
Instruction. 

That evening new teachers and staff mem- 
bers were entertained at a dinner by other 
teachers and administrators who were not 
new. After dinner, they ate dessert with. Pre- 
sident and Mrs. Gemmell in the Gemmells' 
apartment in Music Hall.

Plans Program 

Fresh from last year's highly successful 
season, the College Readers (formerly the 
Readers' Theater) are embarking upon an 
even more strenuous program which they 
hope win be even more of a success. Under 
the direction of their advisor, Dr. Mary Hard- 
wick, they plan for this year two major pro- 
ductions (one late this semester, the other In 
early spring) and a group of smaller studio 
productions. 

College Readers are also planning tours of 
other colleges and universities, incktdilig 
temple, Penn State, and Westminster; also 
in the offing is a possible tour of England 
fpr one of the groups. In addition, the College 
Readers say they have a secret project which 
will start late in October. 

As evidence of their full schedule, five of 
their members — Ken Miller, Jackie Gerard, 
CeCe Carter, Mike Elliott, and Patrick Fitz- 
gerald — are attending a readers' workshop 
this weekend at Kutztown State College. 
There they are performing T. S. Eliot's "The 
Wasteland.

At Dover 



Wise Named Eagle 
Player of Week 



Clarion suffered its first toss of the season 
on September 21, at the hands of Delaware 
State College at Dover, by a score of 34-22. 

Delaware opened the scoring when Saun- 
ders capped an 89-yard drive with a one- 
yard plunge into the end aone. Clarion tied 
the game with a touchdown of its own, with 
Bob Erdeljac scored on a one-yard run. 

Late in the .second quarter. Art Trivari 
blocked a Delaware punt that helped to set 
up a Clarion field goal attempt by John Dor- 
ish. His attempt fell short and Delaware's 
Gaines returned the ball 80 yards for a touch- 
down. 

Clarion gave up another touchdown early 
In the third period when Watson scored on 
an 83-yard run. The Eagles stayed in the 
game, however, as Bob Erdeljac scored again 
on a five-yard run. In the same quarter, 
Delaware scored on a 57-yard pass play to 
Gaines, which put the game out jf the reach 
of the Eagles. 

Clarion kept" alive with a fourth quarter 
scoring pass from Erdeljac to Bob Oberdorf 
that covered 18 yards. In hopes of a last 
minute victory. Coach Jacks called for a 
two point conversion, successfully carried out 
by Regis Ruanc. John Dorish went two for 
two in extra point conversions for Clarion, 
v/hile Delaware's Boney made good in four 
out of five attempts. Delaware ended the 
game by scoring with a 51 -yard run by Saun- 
ders.

Pendulum Will 
Swing Again 

With the opening of Peirce Science Center 
in January 1968, the students and the faculty 
of Clarion State College were impressed by 
its modern design and its modem facilities, 
particularly the Foucault Pendulum. 

The pendulum worked for a while, but 
after a time it started to fluctuate wildly. 
The fluctuations appear to have been caused 
by the booster power supply in the ceiling. 
This booster power supply is supposed to 
keep the pendulum swinging at an even 
speed. If the pendulum does not receive the 
correct boost, it begins to oscillate wildly. 

It has been observed that from 1:30 to 
3 p.m., the volume of power fluctuates. In- 
stead of a steady 117 volts, the volume of 
power fluctuates 20 percent or more. West 
Penn Power has been called in to investigate 
the problem. According to West Penn, the 
power coming into campus does not fluctuate 
nor does it fluctuate in the building. The 
IBM department has had no problems, but 
this could be due to the fact that they are 
operating on an output different from the 
pendulum. West Penn Power thinks that the 
output for the pendulum is improperly con- 
nected or that it may be grounded. 

The Phy,sical Science Department hopes the 
Foucault Pendulum will be in operating con- 
dition in the near future.

MEMBERS OF ARTHUR MILLER'S 'After the Fall' cast include Dan Wei- 
land Veronica Smith, Phil Ross, Bobby Egidi, Betty Corbett, Steve Brezzo, 
Pat Losick, John Solomon, Connie Carter, Herb Michaels, Dave Klmdienst, 



Joel Kauffman, Judy Cross, Linn McGahan, Pam McFeaters, Connie Alexis,

audiences. 



Play Review . 



By GEORGE HALL 

Seeing After the Fall Wednesday night was 
a worthwhile and rewarding experience, one 
that this reviewer will not soon forget. The 
Arthur Miller play— directed by Bob H. Cope- 
land and with sets designed by Adam F. 
Weiss— was the first production of the aca- 
demic year by the Clarion State Department 
of Speech and Dramatic Arts. 

The play takes place in the mind of Quen- 
tin, played by John Solomon, a lawyer who, 
for the most part, has not had too much 
happiness in his life. As a child, he was 
subject to the constant conflict between his 
parents, played by Veronica Smith and Theo- 
phil Ross, and as a lawyer because of his 
association with the Communist Party and 
the events which occur as a result of this 
affiliation. 

This background is coupled with a friend 
who commits suicide and with four women— 
hij, first wife, Louise (Judy Cross), who feels, 
and is, constantly neglected by Quentin; a 
mother < Miss Smith) whom he loved dearly 
but who deceived him as a child; a switch- 
board operator turned singer named Maggie 
(Connie Carter) whom he later marries; a 
German tourist guide, Holga (Pam McFea- 
ters), who is repeatedly referred to as the 
"good thing" in his life. With this plot, it 
ic understandable that Miller's play has been 
labeled by various New York critics "a very 
difficult play to make happen." 

Keeping in mind the extremely difficult 
material, Mr. Solomcn did a fantastic job 
of relating the experience to the audience 
while still maintaining the action between 
himself and the other characters, which is 
necessary in telling this particular story. His 
ability to "keep to the theme ' of something 
created, something destroyed was very im- 
pressive. 

Miss Carter and Miss Cross both did ex- 
cellent jobs of capturing the audience within 
their characters. Miss Carter, as Maggie, 



first made us laugh at the innocence and 
unawareness of a young, naive woman alone 
in the world, then extracted pity from the 
audience as she portrayed a crushed and 
broken woman grabbing at straws of past 
glory and trying desperately to salvage her 
marriage to Quentin. Miss Cross, Louise, the 
constant thorn in Quentin's side, was the 
wife wrapped up in principle, plagued with 
suspicion of Quentin and his alleged affairs 
with other women. 

Miss Smith and Mr. Ross, Quentin's par- 
ents, represent the springboard in Quentin's 
life, the root of all his inner conflict, and 
they appear throughout the play as an ever- 
present reminder to him of their influence 
on his life. 

Mr. Copeland and Dr. Weiss, congratula- 
tions! To the cast and production staff, bra- 
vo! A job well done!

Division of Communication 
Plans Move to Davis Hall 



The remodeled Davis Hall will serve three 
main functions of the Division of Communi- 
cation. These are: (1) to provide more class- 
rooms and specialized laboratories for aca- 
demic offerings. (2) to provide production 
facilities for photographic (motion picture 
and still) and graphic work, television, re- 
cording, and eventually FM radio. (3) to 
provide facilities for supporting other acade- 
mic divisions in in-,tructional development. 

To serve these purposes, there will be both 
instructional and experimental classrooms. 
The faculty will have the use of a professional 
graphic arts area, as well as photographic 
studios and darkrooms. Studio A, the exist- 
ing studio, will be used for television, while 
Studio B, the one now underway, will be 
a radio-recording studio, and auxiliary tele- 
vision studio. 

Another area will contain a non-book in- 
structional materials center, with individual 
carrels for use by students and faculty. It 
will be available for previewing motion pic- 
tures, slides, film strips, and other visual 
materials, and for listening to audio tapes 
and records. This area will also contain units 
for programmed instruction, including pro- 
grams for remedial and review purposes. 

A third area will contain individual carrels 



which will utilize programming technic|ues 
for self-instruction in audio-visual equipment. 

Plans are being made to use one room 
as a performance analysis studio, so that 
student teachers, musicians, and other people 
in the performing arts can videotape a pre- 
sentation and have immediate playback. 

There will be a collection of audio-visual 
equipment, used to provide service to the 
general college faculty. 

Space has been allocated for use by the 
Clarion Area Regional Instructional Materials 
Center, which serves the public schools of 
five counties. They will bring to the campus 
a library of approximately 5,000 motion pic- 
tures and various ether media production 
facilities. 

A new proposal will be submitted to have 
a graduate program in media initiated by 
September 1969. 

"The completion of Davis Hall will give 
Clarion State College one of the finest media 
facilities in the country," says Dr. Cole, 
Dean. Division of Communication. "The fac- 
ilities will not only make possible additional 
academic offerings by the division, but in- 
creased service to the college's instructional 
program, research projects, workshops, and 
institutes." 



By ED WOZNIAK 

The panel discussion of Wednesday evening, 
September 25, supposedly on the 1968 political 
conventions, was gradually sidetracked into 
a discussion of former Alabama governor, 
George C. Wallace. Although the other can- 
didates were briefly mentioned, the preoc- 
cupation with Mr. Wallace was obvious. This 
however is not a point of criticism, since 
the preoccupation with Mr. Wallace is simply 
a reflection of the national prominence that 
the American Independent Party nominee has 
attained. 

The panel, modented by Dr. Joel Haines, 
consisted of Mr. Jay VanBniggen, Mr. Ngo 
Dinh Tu, Dr. Samuel Wilhelm, Mr. Serjit 
Singh, and Mr. Emmctt Graybill, Jr., Clarion 
faculty members. 

Dr. Haines began the discussion by pointing 
out that in the 1968 presidential race, there 
are three strong candidates vying for the 
office instead of the usual two. This statement 
proved to be a foreshadowing of events 
to come. Dr. Wilhelm gave a brief back- 
ground of historical precedents to the three- 
way presidential race, pointing to the elec- 
tions of 1860, 1912, und 1924. This was the 
point of departure. 

Mr. VanBruggen then gave his views on 
the difference between the Bull Moose Party 
of Theodore Roosevelt and the American In- 
dependent Party of Mr. Wallace. He observed 
that the Bull Moose faction was a split from 
the Republican party but that the American 
Independent Party is an outside movement 
drawing from both major parties. 

The discussion then turned to foreign opin- 
ion of the candidates. Mr. Tu said that, in 
Fiance, Mr. Wallace is considered the one 
candidate that is candid. He also said that 
the people of Vietnam feared Kennedy and 
McCarthy and that they favored either Nixon 
or Humphrey. 

The question was raised in the audience 
whether George Wallace was nn election 
spoiler or if he really believed that he could 
really win in November. Mr. VanBruggen 
called Wallace a "dreamer" and said that 
he would get no more than 70 electoral votes. 
Mr. Wallace's geographical areas of strength 
were pointed out by Mr. Graybill. He said 
that the industrial centers, especially the au- 
tomobile and steel areas, were Wallace 
strongholds, as well as many states in the 
deep South. Dr. Wilhelm admitted that the 
Wallace threat is serious, but that he is not 
strong enough to win. Mr. Graybill said that 
Wallace's appeal is to people tired of old 
promises of betterment, while the nation 
sinks lower and lower in problems. 

Although the discussion strayed from its 
original topic, it was very interesting and 
informative concerning the candidates them- 
selves, especially Mr. Wallace. Dr. Haines 
promised a similar discussion as the presi- 
dential race goes into its final stages. Would- 
n't it be interesting to have a Wallace sup- 
porter on the next panel? 



African Film 
To Be Shown 

The Hunters, a feature-length color docu- 
mentary of the bushmen in Africa, will be 
presented by the Clarion State College Arch- 
aeological Association on Monday, October 7, 
at 8:30 p.m. According to Dr. Konitsky, the 
movie, which will be shown in Room 161, 
Peirce Hall, is one of the best movies ever 
filmed about the bushmen. The public is in- 
vited. 

Dr. Konitsky and 14 members of the CSC 
Archaeological Association plan a dig to Tidi- 
oute on Saturday, October 5, to search for 
artifacts left by the Five Indian Nations. 

Professors Give 
Talk on Charles 11 

The father of a Clarion English professor 
spoke here Monday night when Dr. John 
Harold Wilson, professor emeritus of Enghsh 
at Ohio State University, gave a lecture on 
"The Not So Bloody Merry." Dr. Wilson is 
the father of Dr. Robin Wilson, professor of 
English on the Clarion faculty. 

Professor J. H. Wilson is considered an ex- 
pert in British history, and has written 
Iti books and over 50 articles on the subject. 
He was a Fellow of the Fulton Library, and 
of the Guggenheim Foundation. 

In his talk, Professor Wilson spoke of the 
reign of Charles II, and of his court. It 
was the story of tho end of Puritanism, and 
the revival of the double standard of moral- 
ity which prevails to the present day. He 
presented this period in history with humor 
and spice, introducing concepts through an- 
ecdotes. The lecture was both interesting and 
informative. 



Guys and Gals 
Plan Intramurals 



"The Great White Father," as Mr. Waldo 
S. Tippin was affectionately called by his 
students, will have yet another honor be- 
stowed upon him when the Waldo S. Tippin 
Gymnasium-Natatorium is dedicated on Oc- 
tober 12. 

A graduate of Clay Center, Kansas, 
High School, Mr. Tippin look his undergrad- 
uate degree at Geneva College and acquired 
a master's degree at Columbia University 
Before coming to Cicrion, Mr. Tippin was 
a coach at Meadville High School, where his 
teams won four Western Pennsylvania foot- 
ball championships and three district PIAA 
basketball champicnships. He also coached 
at Allegheny College. 

In 1935 Tippin came to Clarion as athletics 
director. In this capacity he coached basket- 
ball and football which were the main var- 
sity sports offered at that time. Later golf, 
ba.seball, wrestling, rifle, and tennis were 
at'ded and the college intramural program 
was developed. Un-Jor his direction, the grid 
team of 1952 captured a victory at the Lions' 
Bowl in North Carolina, thus triumphantly 
closing an undefea;ed sea.son. 

Many of Mr. Tippin's students and team 
members have gone on to become famous. 
Alex Sandusky, who retired a few years ago 
from a successful 12 years as a lineman 
with the Baltimore Colts, was a member 
of one of Tippin's college football teams; 
G(vernor Raymond Shafer served in the 
"Tippin team" as a Meadville High School 
gridster. Joe O'Brien and Bill Sheridan, both 
of Clarion, who played football with the Am- 
erican League New York Yankees, also play- 
ed under Mr. Tippin. 

In 1966, after 31 years of service, Waldo 
Tippin retired from his coaching career. A 
one-time sports official, he was president of 
the Tri State Official's Association and is 
a past president of the Pennsylvania State 
Colleges' Athletic Conference. After holding 
many district and national offices in the Na- 
tional Association of Intercollegiate Athletics, 
national honors were accorded him in 1962 
for meritorious servic^j to the NAIA. 

Clarion also has paid tribute to Mr. Tippin 
in various ways. Alfred Charlie executed a 
bronze bust of Mr. Tippin which was to adorn 
the cafeteria. 

In 1956 the CSC band centered the entire 
half-time show around his life. At that time 
he was presented with a large plaque designa- 
ting him as an honorary member of the 
band; this was the first time in the history 
of the band that honorary membership was 
bestowed on anyone. Dr. Michalski decided 
to award him because Mr. Tippin always 
had the band in mind and showed them un- 
usually close cooperation, and also because 
ho was a "gentleman, a scholar and a great 

guy. . ." 

In an interview v/ith Mr. Ronald Shumaker 
and Mr. Bruce Macbeth of the English De- 
partment, who were students of Mr. Tippin, 
it was established that Mr. Tippin was re- 
spected by all on campus, was extremely 
godd-looking and in excellent physical con- 
dition. He was quiet, soft-spoken and never 
raised his voice. 

Mr. Ernest Johnson, who played under Mr. 
Tippin and assisted him as head football 
coach during the last .year Tippin was here, 
described him as "affable, most cooperative, 
and a really true gentlemen of sports. He 
has always been a tribute to Clarion. It is 
only proper and fitting that the gym bear 
his name."

WALDO S. TIPPIN 



Opinion Poll 

For some time it has been said t!iat I he 
students of Clarion Slate Conine are apathe- 
tic. To find out wh'i-her this is true, a poll 
was taken. 

The question posed to all the students in- 
volved in the survey was: "What is your 
reactirn to the letter from the Student Ac- 
tivities Committee concerning the changes 
made in the social calendar? 

The general reaction was one of displea- 
sure, not apathy. Students previously blaming 
the social committee for a poor program of 
events were made aware of the real reasons 
for the lack of social activity. 

Martha Zvonik commented: "1 had realized 
that there were weekends without anything 
scheduled, but couldn't understand why." She 
also said: "If the activities are for the stu- 
dents, why shouldn't the students (in the 
form of the social committee) schedule our 
activities? No one else has the right to change 
our calendar." 

Jim Ryland echoed Miss Zvonik's feelings: ■ 
"We should expect the schedule to be adhered 
to. Why should anyone have the right to 
interfere with the .social schedule of the stu- 
dent body, especially after it's been approved 
by them (the deans)?" 

The schedule was originally planned to ac- 
commodate home and away football games. 
As the schedule was printed, however, some 
weekends of away games are void of any 
real social activity. 

John Hafera said. "There should be some- 
thing planned both Friday and Saturday 
nights— especially on weekends of away 
games. We cant be expected to travel to 
all the away games, and likewise, we should- 
n't have to sit around all weekend with no- 
thing to do." 

Bill Zener's very terse comment amplifies 
Huffs opinion: "You might as well pack 
your bags, because there ain't nothing to 
do." 

Some students feel it is still the Student 
Senate's fault for lotting the schedule be 
changed. John Dorish said: "This sort of 
thing has been happening all the time. The 
Student Social Committee is by far the 
greatest farce, because everything is still 
controlled by the administration. Perhaps 
someone should redefine the term, advisor." 
John Solomon asks this question: "It has 
been my understanding that the student gov- 
ernment, and only the student government, 
should govern the student body. Is this an- 
other power-hungry dean's way of asserting 
himself, or has the Student Senate openly 
admitted that they are not governing, but 
arc being governed?" 

Committees Planned 
By Student Senate 

Tom Paolino, president of Student Senate, 
has announced that six faculty-student com- 
mittees will be sot up. Each of these six 
committees will need four interested and con- 
cerned students. Those committees are food 
and dining, housing, cultural affairs, orienta- 
tion affairs, social affairs, and student publi- 
cations. 

Any students interc^d in serving on these 
committees are asked to sign up in Dr. El- 
liott's office by 5 p.m. Wednesday, October 9. 



Readers Seek 
Original Works 

Clarion College Readers is searching for 
original scripts, poetry, and prose suitable 
for stage productions. 

Students and faculty may submit material 
to Dr. Mary Hardwick in Room 168, Peirce 
Hall; final date for submis.sion is November 
18. 1968. A monetary reward will be offered 
for those scripts approved for production by 
the Showcase Review Board. 



The first meeting of the Intramural Mana- 
gers' Board was held September 27, 1968. 
Officers elected were: president, Kelly Bruc- 
kart; vice president, Paul Carroll; secretary- 
treasurer, Ray Hough; public relations offi- 
cer. Bob Dragovich. The purpose of this or- 
ganization is to promote student health and 
physical efficiency, to foster a spirit of enthu- 
siasm, good sportsmanship, and healthful ri- 
valry through the medium of competitive ath- 
letics. The board consists of one representa- 
tive from each frptornity, dormitory, and 
iiidependent team. Tie meeting was conduct- 
ed by Mr. Charles Nanz, Director of Intra- 
murals, who familianzed the board with the 
Constitution and Bylavs of Intramural Ath- 
letics. It should be noted that the constitution 
does not permit fraternities to use non-mem- 
bers or social members; and that those living 
in a dormitory can only participate in in- 
tramurals as a member of that dormitory's 
team. There will also be independent teams, 
consisting of those not belonging to a frater- 
nity IMJT living in a dormitory. 



Events Planned for 
CSC Homecoming 



The theme for the .mnual Homecoming- 
Autumn Leaf Festival parade, which will be 
held Saturday morning, October 12, is "Am- 
erica the Beautiful." 

Entering the parade will be 19 Clarion State 
College units including 18 floats from fraterni- 
ties, sororities, and other campus organiza- 
tions. The CSC marching band will also par- 
ticipate. Civic groups, such as the Clarion 
Chamber of Commerce, and business organi- 
zations, such as Owen-Illinois Glass Com- 
prny, will also eni,er floats. 

Distinguished visiiors riding in the parade 
will be Congressman John Saylor, 23rd dis- 
trict; State Senator Albert Pechan; Garion's 



state representative, George W. Alexander; 
Auditor-General Grace Slcan: county com- 
missioners Brady Weaver. Frank Stahlman, 
and Cuvier Kline; aad Clarion's Mayor Char- 
les Patterson. 

Judges for the float competition are G. 
Fe-ster Edwards, Riverside Division of Penn 
Traffic; Robert Davis, West Penn Power, 
Kittanning; and Andrew Shefflcr, Travel De- 
velopment Bureau, Harrisburg 

Later in the evening, a dance will be held 
in Chandler Hall from 9 p.m. until 1 a.m. 
Music will be provided by the Manhattans 
and the Contrails. Dress will be semi-formal.

THE CALL — Clarion State CoUege, Clarion, Pennsylvania

What Do Class Officers Do? 



I-ast week's election on this cam- 
pus involved the ejection of class of- 
ficers. Those chosen for president, 
vice-president, secretary, and treasurer 
of each class are supposedly elected to 
lead their fellow students and to in- 
troduce and carry through specific ac- 
tivities for the benefit of their class 
peers. However, the actual duties of 
Clarion's class officers are obscure. 

Just what do the class officers on 
this campus do? 

The students are rarely informed 
of wiiat is going oiT within; their class- 
^. Meetings are seldom held. For ex- 
alnple, two class meetings were ^-hedul- 
ekl for the sophomore class last year. 
The first was an introductpry meeting 
>Yhich concluded with no pertinent re- 
sUlts. and the seconfl involved the se- 
lection of a representative from the 
dass for the Miss CSC pageant. 

t The other classes had a similar 
number of meetings, and the end re- 
sults were equally lacking in signifi- 



cance. Surely more happens within 
each class that would necessitate the 
gathering of all members. In addition, 
no statements are issued to the stu- 
dents regarding their obligations as 
class members, nor are students asked 
to initiate ideas that could result in 
more activities or more class unity. If 
no stimulus is given by the officers, 
the members have no grounds for 
meaningful response. Hence it ap- 
pears that Clarion has officers in name 
only. 

We hope that the new class of- 
' ficers will put forth their efforts to 
change the current attitude that stu- 
dents now have about class officers. 
A new concern by the officers could 
motivate the interest of the student 
body which, in turn, could produce the 
enthusiastic support of class members. 
Now is the time to act; now is the time 
to make our classes function through 
the leadership of the new class offic- 
ers.

JEntertainment: Limited 



I For Homecoming this year we are 
having the Manhattans and the Con- 
trails. Both of these groups are well i 
known, but their popularity in recent 
yiears has declined. The Manhattans, 
36 it will be remembered, were here . 
last year for Homecoming. The Con- 
trails are also returning to Clarion. 
Tjheir last appearance in Clarion was 
two years •ag^ «•». \:; .:* •- » . 

Two weeks ago it Was decided to 
begin looking for groups. Dr. Nanov- 
sky and the Social Committee wanted 
to bring the Temptations or another 
nationally known group to Clarion, but 
two weeks is not enough time to con- ; 
tnc t and book these groups Thji* wd* ' 
had to seUle for something; less'.than 
desired. 



Homecoming is a big^vent to the 
students of Clarion, but will it contin- 
ue to be one if we must setlla-lor \ess 
than the desired? The dat^; lor Home-,' 
coming is set far enough fn'&dvance to 
allow time to contract groups StfcH as 
the Temptations or Peter, f^h an(| 
Mary. Last y^ar tHe administration in-' 
formed the social col^mittee that they 
could not book more than a year m ad- 
vance. Couldn't they have booked 
someone six months ago? Or is that 
too far in advance? 



This year the Conversations are 
scheduled to appear at our Christmas 
dance. Here again, we are settling for 
less than the best. We are not ques- 
tioning their quality, but we are ques- 
tioning their popularity. Why could- 
n't we have a nationally known group 
for the Christmas dance? If it is pos- 
sible to tentatively plan on having a 
^roup this much in advance, couldn't 
the social committee look into having 
a nationally known group instead? 

Last year when we voted for the 
student senators, we also voted on 
whether we, the students of Clarion, 
were willing to pay to see big name 
groups. The student body approved 
this measure. Money, then, may not 
be a factor in the contracting of a 
group. 

Other colleges the size of Clarion 
are able to book currently well-known 
groups. Why can't Clarion? The Con- 
trails haven't been heard of since they 
cut "Someone." But having a record 
out two years ago is reason enough to 
bring them to Clarion. Since we seem 
to be booking big name groups this 
year, has anyone looked into having 
the Andrews Sisters here for Greek 
Weekend?

r P \ -S'tor Gazers Get Facilities; 
Open House Is Planned 



The Clarion State College Planetarium is 
now in operation. The planetarium officially 
oi ned on the first d.'iy of this semester. The 
new facilities are an addition to Clarion's 
current face-lifting. 

The planetarium, in function, will be a 
teaching device used by the science depart- 
ment to increase the student's scientifil liter- 
acy. At pre.scnt, only three courses are usin-; 
the planetarium: Teaching of Eledfentary 
Science, Descriptive Astronomy, and Basic 
PhyHCal Science II. 

Jack N. Blaine, director of the planetarium, 
indicates that the faciliUcs will be used for 
srecial programs designed for the student 
body and faculty. An cpen house is also 
being. planned for the $435,500 addition. 

The Clarion State College Planetarium fa- 
cility is centered arcund a Spitz Laboratory 
Model A3PR projection instrument. This in- 
strument, which costs $28,000, projects the 
stars, planets, mooa and sun onto the plane- 
tarium projection dome, which is 40 feet in 
diameter. It produces in the planetarium sky, 
celestial motions v.hich imitate the effect of 
the earth's rotation, revolution, and preces- 
tiicnal motion. 

The projector also provides for 360 degrees 
of latitude motion to enable the observer 
to view the sky as it would appear from 



any latitude. The aniiuci motions of the plan- 
ets and moon, and the apparent motion of 
the sun can also be shown. 

Projected lines provide a gjrid of geocentric 
coordinates, the eclipUc antf the meridian. 
A group of auxiliary projectors are used sim- 
ulate certain effects such as satellites, twi- 
light, and a geocentric view of the earth. Pro- 
jected spots of light locate such key sky 
positions as the ceiCEtial pole, zenith, home 
latitude and the cardinal points. 

One of the most outstanding features of 
the instrument is the azimuth control which 
permits the lecturer to place any portion 
of the sky directly in front of the audience 
fci easy viewing. 

The planetarium is also equipped with a 
complete stereo sound syistem including a 
tape deck and record player, and the opera- 
tion of the projection insti'ument and the 
.sound system is controlled from the console 
at the rear of tha ioom. 

The contour seating can accommodate up 
to 100 people. Each seat l.s equipped with 
a folding tablet a^m and can be inclined 
approximately 25 degrees. Also, the planetar- 
ium is completely air conditioned to assure 
audience comfort. 

The planetarium, now an actuality, is a 
welcome addition to iJie campus.

To the Editors of the Call: ' ' 

We are very much concerned about the 
shortened \'er'^inn of dir colnmn in A Peek at 
the Greeks in last week's Clarion CaU, Sep- 
tember 28, 19^. 

Since it was the first column (as well as 
the first paper) that appeared this year, 
ther" "as a great deal cf Mews thrl would 
have been of interest to returning students. 
However, for some reason, lyou cut our col- 
umn to one-fourth its original length and 
completely rewrote the few articles that ap- 
peared. We would like to know the reason 
why. 

Sororities and fraternities are a major part 
of the campus. It does not seem reasonable 
or fair to .suddenly reduce the Greeks' ar- 
ticles from one page to not even half! We 
admittedly are not sure if the other columns 
were shortened, but seeing that ours was, we 
assume the others were also. They are prob- 
ably wondering what the reason is, just as 
wc are. 

Peek at the Greeks has long been a part of 
the Clarion Call; a part, we might add, that 
is widely read. Many independents, as well 
as Greeks, read the Call for that specific 
column. It was fun and enjoyable, and a 
diversion from the facts, facts, facts that 
make up most of the rest of the paper. 

We feel you should justify your actions and 
we believe that you have practically elim- 
inated one of the best parts of the Clarion 
Call. 

SISTERS OF DELTA ZETA 

THE EDITORS REPLY 

In answer to your »etter of, concern over 
the changed version of the ' Greek' news col- 
umn, the editorial staff wduld first like to 
thank you for the interest you have taken by 
writing your letter, and we hope that we can 
explain to both you and all the Greek organi- 
zations exactly why the change has been 
made. ^ . • 

It is noi the intention of the statf that the 
"Peek at the Greeks" column h^.ejotlftned, 
but rather that moderate Jo'^rnalistrc -.stan- 
dards be maintained in this|unti(hriar article, 
and that copy be written ii^s%cb > way that 
all students on this camgji^yi^an identify 
names and understand statdtnents. 

For example, in the news Delta Zeta soror- 
ity submitted last week for publication, the i 
following statements were made;*" "V^et^ ' 
glad to see that Anna Marie has r^cAlperatMj 
after being in an accident this sj^mmet;' boc 
keeps them in shape; and m.4yb«r pebbie 
should take over the strippdr rdutfrte.* ^Thesq ■ 
facts are no doubt pertinent to j^dui- ' sirority^-. 
and to the few people on campUs who knovv' 
who "Anna Marie, Doc, and Debbie" are, but 
the large majority of students caiyiltit idenl|fs^ 
thpse students without last'iiame^ attacfod; , 

In addition and in reference to" our goal for 
higher journalistic standards, we are striving, 
for quality writing without slang or comments 
which are understood only by a handful of 
students. These are the reasons why the 
column was cut in the last issue, and why 
parts were rewritten 

If, as you say, the Call i^often read speci- 
fically for the Greek column, then why have 
a student newspaper? The purpose of any 
paper is to inform the public of what is hap- 
pening—here on campus or anywhere that 
news is made. As far as w*- IwtMv^ i'lbMa, 
ficts. facts" are the only efficient way to 
transfer news. However, lighter feature stor- 



ies are being planned for future issues to 
avoid the monotony you describe. 

Pfease keep in mind that we are NOT anti- 
Greek. We realize that the Greek organiza- 
tions on this campus are important and 
should be recognized in the college paper. If, 
for example, any fraternity or sorority would 
suhipit four or five pages of good solid Greek 
new* each week, we would be more than 
willing to print it provided that the standards 
we have outlined arc maintained.

library, the bookstore, or anywhere. But it 
i) not evident to a considerable number and 
as long as theft is tolerated by the many, 
the few will continue to steal. 

In the meanwhile the library will continue 
to do what it can to cut down the stealing 
although, as the author of a recent article 
in a library periodical noted, there is not 
much that can be done if a person is deter- 
mines! to steal books.

Editor, The Call: 

The large number of books "missing" from 
the library remains a constant source of vex- 
ation to students, faculty and to the libra- 
rians. The ambiguity of the status of such 
books is much of the vexation; they may 
be in use, or out of place in the library 
or they may have been stolen. In many cases 
the books are still in the building, but can- 
not be found for various reasons. 

The most common of those reasons is 
misshelving; the books are used and then 
put back in the wrong place, usually by 
accident v/hen the user sees an empty spot 
an aisle or two away from v/hcre he thought 
he got the book. 

However, it is a common trick for a user 
to deliberately misshelvo the book or books 
so that others in (he class will not got it. 
That may be from the relatively innocent 
motive of wanting to put the book aside 
for use later, or it may be a vicious attempt 
to prevent the rest of the class from seein? 
assigned readings. We do not like to think 
that people do that sort of thing, but library 
experience confirms that thoy do, indeed. 

Books are stolen in two ways— temporarily 
and permanently. The temporary stealing 
seems to be a kind of informal loan plan; 
there are no due dates and no fines when- 
ever the book may be brought back. Howev- 
er, the advantages are restricted to the one 
v/ho has the book. No one else knows where it 
ii" or whether it will be back or not. 

Last year we began to unlock the doors 
leading out of the library on the second floor 
because it seemed convenient for everyone, 
especially library science students. However, 
our losses have been excessive and we are 
now locking those doors in an attempt to curb 
t}>e flow of books leaving illegally. It is not 
likely that that will do more than ameliorate 
the situation. Unless the students and faculty 
become convinced tliat it is wrong to steal 
library books, the books will continue to be 
stolen. 

Let us offer here some reasons why book 
stealing is wrong. First, the books belong 
to the State, -and taking them is .simply illeg- 
al. Second, it is meanly selksh. The vhole 
idea of having a library is that there shoald 
be a common pool of books for the use of ev- 
eryone in the college. That is, the books are 
there for everyone; when they are stolen 
it -ia a loss to everyone; to all potential 
users and to all who value their common 
boojfc collection. What belongs to everyone 
belongs to no one in particular and the taking 
tjiereof for particular use is debased selfish- 

The library does noi nave unlimited 
amounts of money and we will not replace 
stolen books for a long time— that is, until 
w€ are certain that they are really gone 
for good— if at all. This year both copies 
of the World Almanac, a very useful book 
for many students, have passed into the 
hands of two students;, faculty, or someone 
else. They have not been replaced. 

Volume 8 of the 1911 edition of the En- 
Gvctopedia Britannica (the famous 11th ed- 
ition) was stolen last year. Wc have no way 
of getting one volume of the 11th edition 
and cannot afford to buy another whole set 
ti> replace one volume. Any number of other 
CS9BB could be added here. To most people 
associated with the college it is self evident 
tim% one simply shaulU not stea^ frum tbe 



LIBRARY: TELL US OUR SECRET 

Bewildered students again begin their an- 
nual roamings about Carlson Memorial Lib- 
rary. Attacking the stacks, unarmed ;^and dl_ 
equipped to cope with the ae^arcntly unor-' 
ganized volumes, they grope in vam for tid- 
bits of information to fulfill the bare-mini- 
mum requirements for a research assign- 
ment. 

Is there actually any rhyme or reason to 
tilt placement of these thousands of books, 
periodicals and research volumes'? To what 
mystical system does the librarian attribute 
his ability to find the sought for volume 
when, as a last resort, one interrupts him to 
request assistance? And although he deigns 
to produce the book from amid the conglom- 
eration, does his bondage to some obscure 
oath prevent him from leaking out a elue as 
t J the master-plan of the institution? 

Is it fair to confront freshmen— or for that 
matter upperclassmen— with this maze with- 
out so much as a compass? Is there any par- 
ticular talent, attribute, or intuition which 
cnaljles a minority cult to traverse these 
dreaded aisles and stacks selecting, appar- 
ently with ease, the volumes to fulfill their 
needs? 

Admittedly thi.s problem is exaggerated 
fcr effect; it is, however, a real and definite 
problem. This letter i.":; submitted with all due 
respect to library employees, with commen- 
dation and gratitude for their assistance, and, 
indeed, in an effort to lighten their burden 
of work. 

The proposed solution for this problem is a 
library orientation course. This could be un- 
dertaken either as a segment of the freshman 
orientation program, or as a required unit in 
Composition I. Since many grades depend 
largely on research papers and projects, the 
value of this course is obvious.

Editor, The Call: 

For the past few days a sign appeared 
in the student union conceniiug a letter that 
appeared in the first issue of the Call. It 
read, "Do you care about your social life 
at aarion?" 

At the Student Senate meeting of October 
2. the problem of the "revised" calendar 
was discussed. Absolutely noUiing was ac- 
complished. The only results were that the 
social commiyt^ .^%s. inadeqjiatp^ pn^, tljat^ 
the budget has been juggled. "* 

Originally, $8,000 was allocated for the 
Homecoming Dance. This was quickly cut 
to $5,000 with $1,400 finally being spent (this 
is due to the inadequacy of the social com- 
mittee). Almost anyone can figure out that 
an excess of $3,600 remains that goes back 
into the budget. What I want to know is 
v/hy Dr. Elliott does not ccme out and "tell 
it like it is." Why must we always bo double 
talked? If the social committee is inadequate, 
vvhy isn't something done about it? The pro- 
blem of conflicts on weekend activities was 
mentioned, and was quickly remedied with 
a dance on weekends with a combo. This 
was further complicated by the suggestion 
to have fraternities, sororities and class of- 
ficers sponsor these dances. The only pro- 
blem is that a lot of these groups do not 
have any operating capital. However, Dr. 
Elliott quickly added that the Senate would 
sub.sidize these activities. 

Question: Why mn^t Dr. Elliott avoid is- 
sues, and why didn't he tell us the truth 
about the facilities for our activities? 

Space approval forms for all activities were 
presented to the Student Senate. Why did 
Dr. Elliott say that these wore not approved? 

Dr. Elliott, I challenge you. Why don't you 
come out and tell us the truth fcr a change? 

TERRY CARLSON 



To the Editor of the Call: 

1 feel that it is my responsibility to answer 
the letter in last week's Call about the inter- 
view the social committee had with Dr. El- 
liott. 

First, I would like to give the students a 
little background information. During second 
semester of last year, all campus organiza- 
tions turned in budget requests for the '68- '69 
school year. One of these requests was from 
the social committee. They asked for a budget 
of $30,000, but it was not possible for them 
to receive this much money. However, we 
did give them more money than they ever 
had before. 

Besides having the largest budget they 
ever had, a resolution was also passed last 
year, by the student body, allowing the social 
committee to charge at big functions. Why 
they have not brought to Clarion big name 
entertainment is beyond me. 

Now as to last week's letter. I do not have 
and am in no way responsible for what is or 
is not placed on the calendar. However, I do 
feel that as President of the Clarion Student 
Association, it is my responsibility to the 
students of Clarion State College to find out 
why the many activities have been cancelled 
or changed, and I promise that I WILL find 
out. 

Once again, I would like to remind"^he 
student body that all Senate meetings are 
open aod tbat if yia have scmetluag trottir-' 



EDITORS COMMENT ON STUDENT 
SENATE ISSUE 

In answer to the two letters above, the 
editor of the Call would hke to make the fol- 
lowing comment: 

Many complaints and opinions have been 
made by students concerning the changes 
made in the social calendar, ani everyone 
wants to know the answers. But few stu- 
dents have initiated an investigation to find 
out exactly why the changes have been made. 
It's easy to say that Dr. Elliott. Dr. Nanov- 
sky, or someone else is responsible for what 
has happened, but no one has been able 
to pinpoint the cause to .any one person or 
to any one group. It may just be possible 
that the wrong persons are being blamed. 

For this reason I urge the students on 
this campus to take the responsibility of find- 
ing out tlie facts of this issue so that the 
whole truth can bo published for the bene- 
fit of the entire student body. We have what 
I feel is a legitimate issue— an issue which 
deserves satisfactory answers. But we will 
never find these answers by shouts of injus- 
tice or unfairness. We must instead be willin?? 
to stick our necks out to make sure that 
our criticism is valid. With proof and facts 
as our ammunition, we cao produce results.

Venango News 

Freshmen usually come to college with the attitude that they are automa- 
tically "low man on the totem pole." Frosh at Clarion's Venango Campus have 
found this idea untrue. 

I With a ratio of 2:1 between freshmen and sophomores, what can you ex- 
pect This year's freshmen at Venango, in addiUon to their sheer numbers, 
tiossess an admirable abundance of enthusiasm and interest. Reflections of 

I the enthusiasm fill the two following articles. 



Freshmen Note 
Long Walk But 
Friendly Spirit 



By MARTHA DUDROW 

Now that the confusion of settling in a 
strange routine has calmed, there is time to 
fi'tid out what the Frosh think of Venango. 

bne thing is clear— it's a long walk into 
toVvn! The general attitude was that walking 
six, miles to and from town a couple of times 
a week is not ordinary. For some, it's moi-e 
tl\^n they have walked at one time in their 

lives. 

,AU the freshmen I have talked to like the 
friendly atmosphere. Living with friends 
makes the difference because we get to 
kmw what they're really like, and they get 
to know us. 

^It is a bit hard to get used to the methods 
used by some of our profs— at least that's 
what some Frosh have said. Others are, Uke 
myself, amazed that it is similar to high 
school. There is a lot more competition, how- 
cfver. 

Nothing to do at "Venango U" seems to be 
a bit of a problem. As most of the Frosh are 
from the Pittsburgh area, they are used to 
doing something all the time, and as we're 
so far from the "action" that it gets boring. 
But as the year goe.s on,, it might get better. 
After all, we've been here about three weeks! 

As Dr. Morgan said, "the food won't be 
Uke mother's." It isn't. But the general opin- 
ion is that it could be worse. I know for my- 
self that it's better than the food at our high 
school cafeteria. 

Breakfast leaves something to be desired, 
but then not many eat breakfast. It is food. 
We'd be in a mess if they didn't serve any- 

tbing! 

A lot of Frosh were surprised to find that 
Venango Campus was better than they had 
afiUcipated. The first thought of many when 
t^y received the letter was "Where is Ven- 
apgo?" Now they k-iow! 

*,The atmosphere is friendly and the pres- 
^p-e is not as great to "be someone." Per- 



sonal interest in us surprised me. I had been 
told that college profs couldn't care less 
about us, but they do, and I guess Venango's 
size has a lot to do with it. All in all, me 
freshmen like V. C, 

De-Dinking Rite 
Ends Activities, 
Kangaroo Court 

By SAM BUSCO 

"To all the joys of student life, our hearts 
will ever thrill." 

Tlie Alma Mater of Clarion State College 
expresses the feelings and thoughts of college 
students all over the world. College life and 
its many activities will always hold a soft 
spot in the hearts of students. 

But the one event that will remain indelibly 
in their minds is Freshman Initiation Week, 
fetter known as Frosh Week. However, the 
students at Venango Campus will remember 
Frosh Week more than the other college stu- 
dents because it was a special Fresh Week, 
or at least it seemed that way to all of us. 

Our extraordinary Frosh Week began 
promptly at midnight on Sunday, September 
22, and lasted through the following Saturday 
at "de-dinking" ceremonies. The long week 
included such activities as physical fitness 
exercises, shaving cream and water battles, 
scavenger hunts, bust-improvement exer- 
cises, jogging through the dormitory, and 
the unforgettable session of kangaroo court 
with its revolution. Who could forget any of 
these? 

A little color was added to the classes when 
the Freshmen entered backwards with their 
blue and gold dmks, black and white signs, 
and brightly-colored book bags. The halls of 
the classroom building came alive with air 
raids and ridiculous sophomore stunts. 

Even though these stunts were not sup- 
posed to provide excuses for the sadistical 
whims of Sophomores and were supposed to 
be "all m fun," some freshmen believed 
otherwise. Yet, the fact that they still will- 



ingly agreed to all the activities of Frosh 
Week just to have fun proves that the Fresh- 
man class of 1968-1969 is extraordinary. |^s 
one sophomore told us. "This year's Fresh- 
man das'; is the greatest. They're so mudh 
fun." This opinion is something we freshmen 
can be proud of. 

Frosh Week has given many of us a chance 
t.-) meet some potential life-time friends. How 
could a man forget that he met his be^ 
friend during a whipped cream and egg bat- 
tle during Frosh Week at Venango Campus? 
Then there are those cf us who used to be 
shy, timid, or afraid of being with people. 
Frosh Week and its events have given iB a 
chance to come out of our shells and feel 
comfortable where we used to be nervous, 
participate where we used to simply watch, 
or to laugh when we used to cry. Such an 
important pha.se of life can never be for- 
gotten. 

Consequently, Frosh Week at Venango 
Campus WAS a very special one, simply be- 
cause it was OURS. We were the ones Who 
wrote home about it. We were the ones who 
told friends about it. And we were the ones 
who had the fun. The Frosh Customs Hand- 
book is right when it states: "You will long 
remember this period and enjoy many hearty 
l.iughs about it."

Swimming Team is Good Girls' Intramural 
. Sports Programs 

Possibility jor J\ear ruture jvo^ Bcin«^ Of f ered 



Clarion State will soon add another athletic 
team to the list— swimming. The students 
of Clarion arc fortunate enough to have some 
of the best facilities along with first class 
equipment. 

This year will be a building year for the 
swim team. Around the end of October, a 
general call will be issued for all boys, pre- 
ferably freshmen and sophomores, with some 
swimming experience. They will go through 
a training program which will run until 
March. Intercollegiate competition, in the 
small college division, will be initiated next 
year. Possible competing this year will de- 
pend upon the overau success of the team. 

The diving events will be coached by Mr. 



Donald Leas, the swimming by Mr. Charles 
Nanz. Mr. Nanz was captain of his swimming 
team at the University of Pittsburgh; he 
comes to us from the Baldwin school system, 
where he taught physical education and 
coached swimming for four and one-half 
years. While at Baldwin, Mr. Nana^ started 
the swimming team and compiled a record 
of 34 wins and 18 losses. 

One major problem, as seen by Mr. Nanz, 
is the fact that up until now many of our 
good high school swimmers have never con- 
sidered Clarion, mainly because of the lack 
of good facilities. With the new pool. Cla- 
rion hopes to attract the kind of swimmers 
whq will make possible a first-rate team. 



An intramural sports program is currently 
being offered to the women students of Cla- 
rion State College. 

Volleyball and badminton are two sports 
for the fall program; although badminton 
is an individual sport, volleyball teams haVe 
been formed. Tournaments for both sports 
will take place Monday and Thursday eve- 
nings in Waldo Tippin gymnasium. Trophies 
will be awarded at the end of the season 
for inter-squad and individual performances. 

Schedules will be posted near the intramur- 
al room in Tippin gym. If there are any 
questions, please contact Miss Shope, the (Jo- 
ordinator of the women's program. 



Camera Catches Action in Geneva Game 



Eagles Claw Geneva Tornadoes 



In a game highligiitcd by Fred Wickstrom's 
97-yard return of an intercepted pass. Cla- 
rion rolled to its second victory in three 
outings. After the Delaware loss, last week, 
Coach Jacks revamped the offensive lineup 
with nine starting sopliomores. 

Geneva drew first blood midway through 
the first quarter. The Tornadoes recovered 
a Clarion fumble on the CSC 35. A 31-yard 
pass from Greg H:.!iey to Pete Quinn high- 
lighted a drive that carried to the Eagles 
one; Haney sneaked over from there: Geneva 
7, CSC 0. The Clarion defense v;as having 
trouble adapting to Geneva's surprise shot- 
gun offense. 

First play following a poor Geneva punt, 
Joe Abal romped fov a touchdown with 2:22 
left in the first quarter. Dorish parted the 
uprights to make it 7 ell. Gcn^^va threatened 
the lead touchdown at the end of the first 
quarter, but a Wickstrom interception on Cla- 
rion 3 cut it short. 

Although it didn't appear obvious until the 
second half, a key factor in the turniiig point 
of the game was when Greg Haney was 
forced out of the game with six minutes 
left in the second quarter with an injury. 
The Tornado quarterback looked good, 
scrambled well, and completed four out of 
five passes for a total of 99 yards. 

A minute and 35 seconds after the new Gen- 
eva quarterback entered the game, Fred 
Wickstrom intercepted a Phillips pass on 
the Clarion three lad raced dov/n the left 
sideline lor a touchdown. It marked his se- 
cond interception: two cf Clarion's five. Dor- 
ish booted the point: CSC 14, Geneva 7. 

Clarion used their time-cuts to stall the 
clock. Joe Abal, who had been hitting the 
middle well, plun.'^ed over from the one with 
13 seconds left on the clock. 

Clarion's well balanced ground-aerial at- 
tack dominated the second half. Bob Oberdorf 
capped a 55-yard drive by bowling over from 
the three. Clarion now held a commanding 
28-7 lead. They pfocceded to add another 
seven to it. In a little more than a minute,^ 
Fran Sirianni picked off Clarion's third in- 
terception and returned it 18 yards to the 
Geneva 34. Jim Becker scored from there 
on the next play: a pass from Erdeljac. 



Dorish kicked his fifth successive extra point: 
SCS 39, Geneva 7. 

The game's final score came with 10 min- 
utes left on the scoreboard. Bill Wise pushed 
in from the one. John Dorish remained in 



Lock Haven Will 
Field One of Best 
Teams For Eagles 

Lock Haven will be putting one of its best 
teams in years against Clarion State on Sat- 
urday night. Lock Haven has a well-balanced 
attack and defense, experience, and good 
depth. The team has won one game while 
losing two, but it has a lot more potential 
tlian its losses to California and Maryland 
might indicate. 

The defensive line headed by Arrow Smith, 
all-state defensive lineman last year, and 
Brenner, the fivc-fcot, nine-inch 210-pound 
senior who doubles on offense, are tough 
on the ground. 

Offensively, Lock Haven usually works out 
of a T-formation with a split end. Sopho- 
more quarterback RIiulc is a good scrambler 
ani a constant threat with the long bomb. 
He has some top receivers in Vaughn at 
split end. who caught two touchdown passes 
against California, in Randolph at left end, 
who spnnts the 100-yard dash in 9.7 and 
in Geise, a right end v/ith a good pair of 
hands. 

McNeils, a six-foot, three-inch 205-pound 
junior, eats up yardage, and Smith, another 
junior who stands five-foot, 11 inches and 
weighs 190 pounds, is another good runner. 

The Lock Haven line is strongest on the 
right side, their secondary average. Hooks, 
flats, and R-back patterns have hurt the de- 
fense against California and Maryland. Cla- 
rion can be expected to pass against them, 
test the right side, and work the left side 
of the line.

Band Day Panorama as Seen From the Air 



Another Opening, Another Show 



On Saturday, September 28, the Clarion 
State College Golden Eagle Bsnd played host 
to 1,257 bandsmen, color guards, and major- 
ettes from 13 bands representing several 
counties in Western Pennsylvania. The 13 
bands which participated in the colorful event 
brought an overflow crowd of 5,000 specta- 
tors to view the game and p^^geantry of 
marching and music. 

An event of this n.iture aptly demonstrated 
the musical talent which is inherent in the 
Marching Band at Clarion State College. A 
pre-game show by the band featured the 
1968 entrance with fanfare and "It's a Big 
Wide Wonderful World." Two intricate drill 
routines were executed to the strains of Ger- 
shwin's "I Got Rhythm." This included line 
drills and floating diamonds. The band con- 
cluded the pre-game program with a kick- 
down dance to 'Wrap Your Troubles in 
Dreams." The talents of the high school

hand acquaintanceship with the chief literary 
masterpieces." Membership is limited to up- 
perclass English majors with a 3.0.

English. Among last year's speakers were 
Dr. Gilbert Neimnn, Dr. H. W. Park, and 
Dean Still. Sigma Tau Delta offers its mem- 
bers the opportunity to teach a college class 
each spring. 

Right now Sigma Tau Delta is collecting 
material for The Clarion. Anyone is invited 
to submit original works for publication any- 
time this month eitiier by leaving their ma- 
terial in the English Department office or 
by giving it to one of the officers of Sigma

erica the Beautiful," "Song for the Young," 
"Washington Post," and "Alma Mater." Bill 
Severance, CSC male twirler, was featured

Field representatives from VISTA, (Volun- 
teers In Service To America) came to Cla- 
rion on October 1 r.nd 2 to speak for and 
about their organization. 

VISTA is a program which began four 
years ago as a parallel to the Peace Corps; 
its main objective is to form a bridge between 
poverty and opportunity in the underdevel- 
oped and impoverif;heu areas of the United 
States ahd its territories. 

To qualify ioj the VISTA program, a per- 
son must be at least 18 years old and must 
be a citizen of the United States; there is 
no upper age limit. With these minimum 
requirements and with the numerous appli- 
cants, VISTA has changed their emphasis, 
whereby they can be more selective now 
in choosing volunteers than v/hcn the pro- 
gram was started. VISTA is a growing pro- 



ject with over 5,000 workers either in the 
field or participating in the six-v/eck train- 
ing period. 

No volunteer is sent to any area unless 
a sponsor, either a local or county agency, 
requests such a per.;on. Volunteers serve for 
a minimum of ons year in any of the 50 
states. District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, 
Virgin Islands, Guam, and the Trust Terri- 
tory of the Pacific Islands. They receive a 
monthly allowance covering clothes, housing, 
food, and transportation in the area to which 
they are assigned, as well as $75 a month 
for personal incidentals. In addition, $.50 is 
set aside each mouth and is paid to the 
volunteer at the completion of his service. 

For further information, write to VISTA, 
Washington, D.C. 20506.

Speech Instrument 
Designed by Dr. Hartley 

Dr. Harold Hartley, coordinator of speech 
patiiology and audiology, and Stephanie Tala- 
bcr, a senior at Clarion, spent a very pro- 
ductive summer designing a measuring in- 
strument to assess a speaker's awareness of 
his own speech. 

The purpose of the instrument is to mea- 
sure the improvement of the speech of a 
stutterer by enabling him to hear his own 
voice. The test has been administered to 270 
individuals from age ten to adulthood, includ- 
ing seventy with a stuttering problem and 
two hundred v.ith a normal voice and no 
speech problem. 

Presently, Stephanie and Dr. Hartley, with 
the aid of Dr. Lewis in statistics, are in the 
process of preparing a paper on their experi- 
mentation and the results of the testing. 
Stephanie and Dr. Hartley are co-authors of 
the paper and it will be read by Stephanie at 
the National Convention of the American 
Speech and Hearing Association in Denver, 
Colorado, November 15. After the results are 
announced at the convention, the measuring 
instrument will be of use to all speech de- 
partments. 

Stephanie, whoso home is in Poughkeepsie, 
New York, is presently doing her student 
teaching in speech pathology in the Clarion 
Area School District. After graduation from 
Clcrion, she plans to continue her studies 
leading to a master's degree in speech path- 
ology.

THE CALL — Clarion State College. Clarion, Pennsylvania 



Friday, October 4, 1968 




Wickstrom, Oberdorf Named 
Football Players of the Week 
For Delaware, Geneva Contests 



Coach Al Jacks and his coaching staff 
named sophomore wingback Bob Oberdorf 
Player of the Week for the Delaware State 
game played September 21. 

Bob, seemingly unaffected by the long bus 
trip to Dover, was able to turn in a tremen- 
dous individual performance. He caught five 
passes for 79 yards and collected 29 yards 
rushing, only 20 yards less ihan Clarion's 
total rushing yardage for the afternoon. Un- 
fortunately, Bob's .efforts were in vain as 
the Eagles went down to defeat at the hands 
of the much bigger Delaware team. 

"Obie," a sophomore from Leechburg, was 
a standout athlete on last year's freshman 
team, and it appears that he will be a con- 
tinued asset to Coach Jacks' Eagles in the 



future. Although only five feet 10 inches tall 
and weighing 160 pounds, he has become 
a star through his desire, his fine moves, 
and his excellent hands. 

Bob is definitely in the winning habit; the 
Delaware game broke a personal string of 
30 consecutive wins, including two W.P.I.A.L. 
high school championships. With the help of 
individual players like Bob Oberdorf, the Ea- 
gles will be able to accumulate just such 
an impressive winning streak in the future. 

Fred Wickstrom was chosen Player of the 
Week from last week's 42-7 victory over Gene- 
va. Fred's number 22 jersey was featured 
in several of the game's highlights. 

His interception on the two-yard line, to 
stop a Tornado threat, with the score tied 



seven-all, was a preview of his grandstand 
play. His second interception was picked off 
from Clarion's own three; from there, he 
traveled 97 yards, down the left sidelines, 
t') the Geneva endzoue. The score gave Cla- 
rion what proved to be the winning margin. 
The interception followed Haney's injury, and 
took the wind out of the Tornadoes. 

In addition to his Iwo interceptions, as de- 
f»;nsive halfback, he contributed a key tackle 
when he caught a Geneva receiver along 
the sidelines who was touchdown bound. The 
five foot, nine 180-pound senior managed to 
put all that football into the first half. 

He attended high school in Edgewood where 
ho was a standout on the local team.

Archaeological Lab to 
Cooperate With State 

The Archaeological Laboratory at the col- 
lege has been selected by the Penn.sylvania 
Historical and Museum Commission as a co- 
operating institution in an agreement between 
the Commission and the Pennsylvania De- 
partment of Highways concerning highway 
salvage archaeology. 

The new plan is designed to prevent un- 
necessary destruction of archaeological sites 
in the course of needed highway construction. 
Until now, no such state- wide program exist- 
ed in Pennsylvania, although federal regula- 
tions specifically allov; for salvage funds in 
connection with road construction. 

Under the new setup, Clarion's Archaeolo- 
gical Laboratory will be primarily responsi- 
ble for the counties of Armstrong, Butler, 
Clarion, Indiana and Jefferson in reviewing 
future construction plans and conducting on- 
site inspections of proposed roadways to de- 
termine whether archaeological sites are pre- 
sent. 

The only other state college participating 
in this plan is California State College having 
responsibility for some of the counties In 
the southwestern portion of the Common- 
wealth. 



Did Old Seminary 
Hall Have Cornerstone? 



By Gary Daurora 

With last week's placing of the cornerstone 
in the New Fine Arts Center, our thoughts 
turn to old buildings and old cornerstones. 
Did Seminary Hall have a cornerstone? and 
if so what was in it? 

When asked these questions. Dr. David Hil- 
ton, assistant to the president, said that as 
far as he and the demolition crew could 
a.sccrtain, Seminary Hall didn't have a cor- 
nerstone. However, due to the incomplete 
records kept at the time of its erection, no 
one can say positively whether or not Semin- 
ary Hall had a cornerstone. 

All that was salvaged from Seminary Hall 
v.'fs the dale stone from the front and the 
vr.rious class ivy blocks along the sides. 
These stones will cveiitually form a memorial 
on campus, which will probably include a 
scale model of Seminary Hall. 

President to Attend 
Conference at Hershey 

Dr. James Gemmell, president of Clarion 
State, will attend a conference on Monday, 
October 21, in Hcr^hcy, Pa. The meeting 
is being sponsored by the Pennsylvania As- 
.sociation of Colleges and Universities (PA- 
CU) and approximately 100 presidents will 
represent their schools for this conference 
at Hershey Hotel. 

The program for th's event includes a panel 
discussion on the topic, "New Concepts of 
Student, Faculty, and Administrative Cooper- 
ation." President Gemmell is one of three 
college presidents who will serve on the pan- 
el. He will be responsible for contributing in- 
formation to the discussion, and will be fea- 
tured as one of the key figures of the confer- 
ence program. 

Student Poems Wanted 
By National Poetry Press 

The National Poetry Press is seeking ma- 
terial for its annual college student's poetry 
anthology. 

Any student attending a junior or senior 
college is eligible to submit his verse. Due

fers shorter work; however, there is no hmi- 
tation as to form or theme. Each po^m 
niu.st be typed or printed on a separate sheet 
of paper, and must bear the name, home

submitter. 

Closing date for the manuscripts is Novem- 
ber 5; send all material to the office of 
the press, National Poetry Press, 3210 Selby 
Avenue, Los Angeles, California 90034. 

Decorations Planned 
For Homecoming Days 

Campus decorations are being planned for 
Homecoming Weekend, October 11 and 12. 

The committee, under the chairwoman Bev 
Reed, has decided to construct a platform 
with a model of Seminary Hall. Above Sem- 
inary Hall will be a revolving golden eagle; 
under it the phrase: Clarion Welcomes Edin- 
bcro, Homecoming 1968. 

The committee hopes to have the dorms 
decorated also. Anyone interested in helping 
in any way, please contact Bev Reed at 
Forest Manor, phone 226-9918. 

Hacker Book Mobile "" 
Visits Clarion Campus 

On Tuesday, October 1, the Hacker Book 
Mobile was on the Clarion Campus. The pur- 
pose of this service was to introduce to the 
faculty and students the new books published 
in the field of art. 

The majority of dooks on aisplay were 
not for sale, but all rare and unique volumes 
v/ere for sale. The list price v/as approximate- 
ly $20 per volume. 

Roy Lindquest, the representative, said the 
book mobile visits the majority of colleges 
iind universities east of the Mississippi. Cla- 
rion's faculty and students compared favor- 
ably with other schools in the amount of 
interest shown.

Something Has Been Done Student President Answers 
As Activities Are Scheduled Questions OH Activities 



By PEG FOLEY 

Something has finally been done! 

Three dances have been scheduled for Octo- 
ber, due to the efforts of social committee 
chairmen Suzan Albanesi and Dickie Riddle. 
These dances will be sponsored by the Greeks 
and by other organizations on campus. 

Following are the activities scheduled for 
October: Tonight the Entertainers will play 
at Forest Manor from 9 to 12 p.m., admission 
will be 75 cehts with I.D. cards. 

On October 18 the brothers of Alpha Gam- 
ma Phi will sponsor a dance in Chandler 
Hall from 9 to 12 featuring the New Hudson 
Exit, a new group fron Canton, Ohio, who 
play both psychedelic and soul music. The 
Jaggers, who recommended the group, say 
"This group can really do it." Admission will 
be 75 cents if tickets are bougnt before Octo- 
ber 18; at the door $1 will be charged. I.D.'s 



must be shown; anyone not from CSC must 
also pay $1. 

The Charades will be featured October 25 
at a dance in Chandler Hall sponsored by 
the sisters of Zeta Tau Alpha. Admission 
price is 75 cents at the door; if purchased 
before, the cost is 50 cents. 

One student put it this way: 

"With student support. Clarion can continue 
to have entertainment on weekends, and we 
can have a full schedule with no more open 
weekends. Without student support, the social 
committee and the other campus organiza- 
tions are powerless. Back your fellow stu- 
dents who are trying to bring a social life 
to this campus. 

"Edinboro has always paid for their enter- 
tainment; show that the Clarion student body 
will pay for their entertainment— top rate 
entertainment." 



Gym Dedication Tomorrow

The long-awaited dedication of the Waldo 
S. Tippin Memorial Gymnasium-Natatorium

board of trustees at Clarion, will accept the 
building on behalf of the college. Mr. Tippin 
and President James Gemmell will both 
speak; the Reverend Dr. Eldon Somers of 
the Campus Ministry will deliver the invoca- 
tion. 

Appropriate music will be provided by the 
Clarion State College Band under the direc- 
tion of Dr. Stanley Michalski. Various elected 
and appointed state, county, and local offi- 



cials have been invited. Governor Raymond 
P. Shafer declined an invitation due to a 
previous engagement. Various friends of Mr. 
Tippin, former and present members of the

congressmen and several state representa- 
tives. 

Tours will be conducted by members of 
the Health and Physical Education Depart- 
ment preceding and following the dedication 
ceremonies which will be held in the main 

gym. 




Waldo S. Tippin Gymnasium and Natatorium 



(EDITOR'S NOTE: Many students have 
been concerned about the changes made in 
the social calendar. Tom Paolino, president 
of the Student Senate, promised to investi- 
gate this controversy in last week's Call. 
The following letter to the editor is a result 
of his efforts to answer the important ques- 
tions of the student body. 

To All Students: 

Did you ever stop to think that Dr. Elliott 
is not the person that we, the students, are 
after? Maybe he is just a scapegoat because 
we want someone to blame, and he is the 
most obvious person to blame as Dean of 
Students. 

If you were at the Student Senate meeting 
on October 2, and had listened closely to 
what Dr. Elliott was saying, you would have 
heard that he was not giving straight ans- 
wers because he did not know why the social 
functions had been canceled or changed. He 
did not know because he did not have any- 
thing to do with these social functions being 
changed. 

In last week's Clarion Call I stated that as 
President of the Student Senate, I would in- 
vestigate the matter and find out who made 
the changes and why. Well, after spending 
many hours in meetings, and in talking to 
many people I have found that it was not, 
and I repeat NOT, Dr. Elliott who made 
these changes. 

Dr. Nanovsky Appointed 

The changes came about because of three 
main factors. First, on June 1st, Dr. Nanov- 
sky was appointed as the new advisor to the 
social committee. Second, clearance for the 
use of the new gym was not given to the 
committee. Third, conflicts arose because of 
new people, new buildings, and schedules be- 
ing turned in late. 

There is only one way that this problem can 
be rectified, and that is by more students 
taking an active interest in what is going on, 
on this campus. Sure, it's easy for every 
student to sit back and bitch, but if you are 
really concerned why don't YOU, the stu- 
dents, take the initiative to go out and start 
something? A few students have already 
started, and I appreciate it. All social activi- 
ties on this campus should not be left only to 
the social committee. There are over 30 dif- 
ferent organizations on this campus that could 
easily sponsor social activities, but instead 
they are happy to sit back and have their 
own private parties. Besides that, what the 
hell do the different classes on this campus 
do? What's the matter? Are you class offic- 
ers afraid to have the students know you 
exist? 



Proposes Special Fund 

Every organization says sure they would 
like to sponsor a function, but they don't 
have the money to back it. Well, what's tlie 
matter? Are you afraid to charge admission? 
Are you afraid that the students won't sup- 
port you? Well, what's wrong with the stu- 
dent body? Does the student body really 
want social functions? If they do, why don't 
they support the functions that the social 
committee is already sponsoring? 

To help these organizations, I am presently 
proposing a special fund. This fund would be 
set up to help organizations sponsor func- 
tions. Now I would like to explain how this 
fund would be used. First, there would be 
anywhere from $5,000 to $7,000 in it. When 
an organization wants to bring in a big name 
group, they should come to the board that 
controls this money. The organization would 
tell the board what group they want to bring 
in, how much this group wants, and when and 
where they plan to have it. 

If the board feels that the affair will be a 
success, they will back the organization on 
certain conditions. If the group loses money, 
the board will only absorb one-half of the 
loss, but if the group makes money, then 
they will be asked to give 25 percent of the 
profit to the fund. This way the group has a 
backing, can only lose small amounts, and if 
they make a profit, it will help perpetuate 
the fund. This fund could also be used for 
dances or to bring in movies. 

Again I would like to remind the students 
of Clarion: If you are not satisfied with the 
way things are done on this campus, there 
is a way that you can be heard and a 
proper way to have things changed. It is not 
through demonstrations, or riots, or hanging 
people in effigy. The proper and most effec- 
tive way is to take the initiative and come 
to the Senate meetings and bring up these 
items so that they can be discussed and 
worked on in a civilized and mature, adult 
way. 

TOM PAOLINO 
President, Student Senate 



Social Committee 
Announces Dance 

The Social Committee of Stu- 
dent Senate would like to announce 
that a dance will be held at 9 o'clock 
tonight in Forest Manor. The dance 
will feature "The Entertainers" and 
an admission price of 75c will be 
charged. All students are welcome. 



Team Seeks Revenge 
For Indiana Defeat 



Edinboro State will come to Clarion's 
Homecoming tomorrow seeking revenge for 
a 58-0 humiliation at the hands of Indiana 
last week. 

The lopsided score is misleading. The Edin- 
boro squad has a traditional rivalry with 
CSC in hustle, aggressiveness and desire. 
It has a stacked lineup of sophomores and 
inexperience, but would like nothing better 
than to upset the Golden Eagle Homecoming 
and Clarion's chance to repeat as the Western 
Conference title winner. 

Quarterback Tom Mackey, a five-foot, 11- 
inch, 180-pound junior, scrambles well, can 
fire from the pocket, or throw the bomb. 
Charles Pollick at halfback is a converted 
quarterback and a replica of Mackey, less 
five pounds. He is a good rusher and tough 
competitor. Dan Bissontz, tight end, six-foot, 
one-inch, 216 pounds, is the only senior on 
the offensive lineup. Dan is looked for often 
downfield by Tom Mackey. 

Defensively, Dave Brandell, a six-foot, two- 
inch, 230-pound senior at right tackle, hits 



Class Officers 
Elected; Only 
326 Cast Ballots 

Only 326 Clarion students considered the 
elections important enough to 'devote two 
minutes of their time to vote in last week's 
election of student officers. Of the 2,912 stu- 
dents eligible to vote, only 59 seniors, 91 
juniors, 127 sophomores, and 49 freshmen 
cast their ballots. Obviously, the students 
of Clarion State College don't care who re- 
presents them. 

l^e results of the elections are as follow?: 

Senior class: Larry Cope, president; Hope 
Henry, vice president; Janice Huffman, se- 
cretary; and Tana Fairfak, treasurer. 

Junior class: Jim Ryland, president; Susan 
Patil, vice president; Ellen Blough, secre- 
tary; and Cheryl Bennett, treasurer. 

Sophomore class: Michael Bozick, presi- 
dent; Lorrie David, vice president; Lincja 
KUmkos, secretary; and Kathy Bergeson, 
treasurer. 

Freshman class: Larry Grudgen, presi- 
dent; Chuck Vogan, vice president; Mik^ll 
Yavell, secretary; and Jerry Jenkins, trea- 
surer. 



hard whenever he has the opportunity. Steve 
Hamm, a sophomore, standing six one and 
weighing 205 pounds, is another linebacker 
to watch. 

Coach Al Jacks will probably try his full- 
backs up the middle again. He may roll 
out on either side, probably, working the 
right side more because of the inexperience 
there, and keep quarterback Bob Erdeljac

IN MEMORIAM 



y/ancy y. u/escott 



Funeral services will be held today in 
Pittsburgh for Nancy J. Wescott. Mem- 
bers of her sorority. Alpha Sigma Alpha, 
will be attending the services. 

In addition, a memorial service is being 
planned for Nancy by the members of the 
sorority. The time and place will be an- 
nounced at a later date. 

Nancy, who was a junior, died early 
Tuesday morning from severe injuries af- 
ter being struck by a car Friday night, 
October 4. 

Dr. Robert Hayes, attending physician, 
reported that Miss Wescott suffered a 
fractured right elbow and right leg, in- 
ternal hemorrhaging, and also suffered a 
cardiac respiratory arrest Saturday morn- 
ing. An attempt was also made to stop 
bleeding Friday night. 

She never regained consciousness. 

Nancy, in company with her roommate, 
Linda Sherman, was returning from the 
Bull Barn on Route 322, east of Clarion, at 
11:20 p.m. They had been working on the 
Alpha Sigma Alpha float for the Home- 
coming parade on Saturday. 

The operator of the car was Edward R. 
Schimp, 44, of Strattanville. Schimp was 
traveling east on 322 and failed to see the 
girls, who were walking west towards the 
college. 

Nancy was walking in a ditch closest to 
the road when the car came off the side of 
the road and hit her on the right side. She 
was thrown into a nearby field. 

She was rushed by ambulance to Clarion 
Osteopathic Community Hospital, where 
she remained until her death. 

Born March 28, 1948, in Bristol, she was 




Nancy J, Wescott 

a daughter of James G. and Rose Marie 
Opfermor Wescott. She was a graduate of 
Peters Township High School at Canons- 
burg and was majoring in special educa- 
tion at Clarion State. 

In addition to her parents, she is sur- 
vived by two sisters, Barbara, a freshman 
at Temple University in Philadelphia, and 
Martha, 7, at home; two brothers, Mich- 
ael, 15, and Neal, 11, both at home. 

Removal was made to the Gerald Goble 
Funeral Home in Clarion and later to the 
Robert E. Wilson Funeral Home, McMur- 
ray Road, Donaldson Crossroads, Route 
19, south of Pittsburgh. 

Funeral services were conducted today 
(Friday) at St. Benedict Church in Peters 
Township, Washington County. Interment 
was in Queen of Heavens Cemetery in 
Peters Township.

THE CALL — Clarion State College, Clarion, Pennsylvania 



Friday, October 11, 1M8 



Editorially 
Speaking 



We Have Student Power 



students on this campus should 
realize the potential power they hold 
as members of a growing and increas- 
ingly progressive student body. Some 
undesirable conditions can be changed 
with proper organization and with uni- 
ty. 

If students unite and become in- 
volved in securing what they want and 
in the rights they feel they deserve, 
changes can be made in a satisfactory 
way. 

Many students, Jor example, com- 
plain about the food service at the cafe- 
teria, but little action resrilts from 
these complaints. If, however, the 
students were to organize a committee 
to investigate specinc problems and 
secure pertinent information to use as 
a basis for action, changes might be 
possible. 

Petitions can be distributed for 
student signatures, letters can be is- 
sued, and the Call can be used as a 
medium to express views. In other 
words, the students can apply pressure 
until they achieve their desired goals. 

Complaints are also often heard 
about sign-out procedures for women 
students. Here again is an example 
of a situation that can be changed if 
the procedure is planned and is exe- 
cuted in a proper way. Dorm regu- 
lations can also be reviseil by similar 
means. '"* 

Some questions are frequently 
raised conrcrning academic situations 
th.-^t exist on this campus. Students 
rebel about registration procedures be- 
cause they feel that they should be 



able to choose the professors they want, 
and should be able to plan the time 
schedules of their classes. Some stu- 
dents prefer all morning classes; oth- 
ers would rather have afternoon clas- 
ses. Why shouldn't classes be sched- 
uled according to personal prefer- 
ences? 

If these changes were made, stu- 
dent-faculty relations could be im- 
proved because students would have 
the teachers they want, and would 
yierefore appreciate their classes more. 
Thus a better learning situation would 
be created. Other academic problems 
would also be eliminated because the 
students would be responsible for any 
problems that would arise such as per- 
sonality conflicts and unsatisfactory 
instruction procedures. 

The current method of registra- 
tion is not permanent; it is subject to 
change. Why therefore shouldn't we 
play a part in securing these changes? 

Most aspects, m laci, of student 
life can be manipulated to student 
satisfaction. This assertion can be il- 
lustrated by the current student activi- 
ties rebellion. The students became 
involved, and as a result, there will be 
more and better social activities on 
this campus. 

Student power is relevant; it is a 
means to secure rights and to change 
outdated regulations. Don't just com- 
plain. Do something about what you 
want — the changes you create may 
make you g'ad you did.

Why Sign Out? 



The women of Clarion State Col- 
lege have in the past been subjected 
to obeying the bothersome rule -per- 
taining to signing out. This regula- 
tion has been obeyed but only with 
half-hearted approval. 

The purpose of signing out is that, 
in the case of an emergency, the y^- 
man student can be notified. tWdmen 
students are required to sign oiit at 
V p m. What if there is an emergency 
before 7 p.m.? Class schedule cards 
may help but what about the time be- 
tween classes? What would happen if 
there was an emergency on Saturday 
or Sunday aficrnoons? 

As the schedule cards are j^^i^w, 
they do not fulfill their intended p^ur- 
pose. Suppose a girl goes to meet her 
date in the lobby and asks him where 
they are going. He replies, "I don't 
know." She ultimately signs out for 
"town." How could this help in an 
emergency? As another example, a 
girl who signs out for the library meets 
some friends there, and they go to the 
diner. How would anyone find her 
there, especially since she signed out 
for the library? 

Many women students do not sign 
out for where they are going because 
some of the housemothers and some of 
the students read the cards. These 
people have no right to read them; the 
cards are there in the case of an emer- 
gency and they should be read only in 
case of an emergency. 

It may be the right of the parents 



to know what their daughter is doing, 
but this right should not be extended 
to the housemothers. The housemoth- 
ers do not fulfill any particular ser- 
vice as far as the personal life of a 
woman student is concerned. The 
Housemothers are there if a woman 
'Student wants to confide in them or 
if she wants guidance. The very prac- 
tice of the housemothers reading the 
<|ards causes many women to take il- 
' legal overnights or to sign out improp- 
©rlv. 

f Signmg out on weekdays and week- 
ttnds is ridiculous because it does not 
fccompHsh its intended purpose. If 
a woman student intends to be off 
mpus for an extended duration of 
me, she should then be required to 
^gn out, but this card should be placed 
in a locked file. This file should not 
be opened unless an emergency should 
arise. As the sign-out cards are now 
placed in the open for all to read, pri- 
vacy is at a minimum. If a woman 
student wanted everyone to know 
where she was going, with whom, and 
how she was getting there, she would 
^ost it in the daily bulletin. 

The present system of signing out 
.should be revised or done away com- 
pletely. As it exists now, the sign-out 
system is accomplishing nothing. By 
adhering to this system, we are lim- 
iting our rights to privacy and to fur- 
thering our own better judgment.

Letters to The Editor 



To all students: 

In the first issue of this year's Call, we 
three members of the social committee wrote 
a letter because we were concerned about 
the lack of social life on this campus. 

At that time, our major concerns were who 
made the changes and why. Numerous meet- 
ings with Dr. Elliott, Dr. Nanovsky, Dean 
Vairo, Tom Paolino, the social committee, 
and the Student Senate gave us some ans- 
wers. 

Now our major concern is where do we go 
from here. At a meeting with Dr. Elliott, Dr. 
Nanovsky, Dr. Nair and Dean Vairo, Tom 
PaoHno, Sue and Bev recommended that, 
first of all. the calendar of events be drawn 
up in February, instead of May, so students 
can resolve conflicts. 

Now in reference to the poll featured in last 
week's Call: 

Miss Zvonik, we agree that students should 
schedule events— and these students include 
ail campus organizations working with the 
social committee to plan activities for this 
campus. Discussion at the last two Senate 
meetings has led us to believe that a fund 
will be available for the sororities and fra- 
temitif^s and all other social and r^^ademic 
groups to use when they work in conjunction 
with the social committee to plan activities. 

Mr. Zener, as our first letter stated, we 
ARE concerned about the weekends when 
"there ain't nothing to do!" 

It is our hope that the social committee 
can include a few more members immedi- 
ately, and we hope concerned freshmen and 
sophomores will show an active interest in 
the social committee. 

In the next few weeks, it is our desire to 
have combos on weekends, and with the co- 
operation and support of interested fraterni- 
ties and sororities, such dances will most 
likely be scheduled immediately. If, and only 
if, students show their interest in CSC's soc- 
ial life by attending and supporting these 
combo dances, can the social committee 
work in conjunction with campus organiza- 



tions to provide students with weekends filled 

"with something to do."

Editor. The Call: 

Apathetic— that's the Clarion student body. 
No spirit— that's our student body. Disinter- 
est—that's Clarion's student body, also. Ap- 
athy, lack of spirit, and disinterest— that's 
whqt^ is wrong with Clarion's student body. 

Clarion students could not care less whe- 
ther their activities schedule was changed. 
They don't have the least idea how their 
activities fees are spent or how the Student 
Senate operates. Few have figured out why 
the dining hall serves mostly carbohydrates 
or why they added the pop machine. Yet, 
two hours after supper most everyone feels 
obliged to supplement the cafeteria meal with 
one from the diner or elsewhere. I must ad- 
mit, students are less than apathetic con- 
cerning the quality of the food served in 
Chandler. Many even question the credita- 
bility of the head cook. 

It doesn't matter to the students whether 
they listen to second or eighteenth rate 
groups when they could obtain the best. 

This college is run by deans. Students take 
it for granted that the dean's authority is 
divine in nature and, therefore, not subject to 
questioning. The deans of students are the 
masters of a puppet show knovra as the Stu- 
dent S mate, and they are the dictators of an 
organization known as the CSC student body. 

Where does the student body store school 
spirit. The Big Psyche, exhibited for instance 
during the Clarion West Chester football 
game? Everyone can find the time to make 
an appearance at the Union, but what be- 
comes of that time when a pep rally is an- 
nounced? 

Students— prove me wrong: snow me that 
the student body does have a mind of its 
own and that the above statements are un- 
justified.

By ROSEMARY SLEBODNIK 

This week the question posed in our opinion 
poll was: "Would you pay to see first-class 
entertainment on our campus?"' 

Richard M. Deriso said, "I could see pay- 
ing for top entertainment such as the Temp- 
tations or the Supremes, providing that, and 
only that, the funds in the Student Senate 
entertainment account are completely ex- 
hausted through providing previous first-class 
entertainment " ' 

Though some students feel that we should 
only have to pay for entertainment if the 
Student Senate has exceeded its budget, hav- 
ing outstanding free entertainment would ne- 
cessitate limiting the audience to our students 
only, since it would be these students who 
would be paying for the groups. Rod Flick 
feels having paid entertainment would allow 
us to advertise to the public, ^rawing inter- 
ested people from the surrounding area. 

Joe Filia expressed his chagrin about our 
social situation with these words: "I am thor- 
oughly embarassed when sonteone asks me 
who is playing for our homecoming when 
all I can answer is 'The Brooklyn Bridge,' 
whoever they may be. The smaller schools 
—Grove City and St. Vincent— constantly 



have top-rate groups like the Temptations, 
Smokey, Dionne Warwick, and the Impres- 
sions. 

"The big question is, 'Why can't we?' Is 
it because we have no money? No, it's be- 
cause the 'older' people running oar Social 
Comm<ttee just don't give a damn ... I'd 
much rather pay two, three, even five dol- 
lars every time we could get a top rate 
group. Irather than throw away my $25 for 
nothing more than the Brooklyn Bridge " 

Tom Wcrthman. who has been a member 
of the Student Senate for two years, said 
that the Student Senate passed a bill last 
spring allowing an admission to be charged 
for good entertainment, yet nothing has been 
done about it. Now he, and many other stu- 
dents would Uke to know just one thing: 
"Why?" 



Wanted: Cast 

Being an election year, 1968 will 
be designated the beginning and end- 
ing of many eras. I would like to 
make an addition to this ever-growing 
list and declare this the end of the 
"suitcase college era" here at Clarion. 
However, it remains up to the students 
to prove, through their interest, in- 
volvement, and participation, that this 
declaration is indeed a true one. 

Perhaps in the past, students were 
justified in complaining that there was 
nothing tO'do on campus, packing their 
bags and fleeing to the big city for the 
weekend. But now, with the variety 
of opportunities presented, there is no 
excuse for this attitude. 

It was only through the coopera- 
tion and plain hard work of many par- 
ties that these opportunities became 
available to you. And it can only be 
through the genuine interest and in- 
volvement of the students that these 
people will be able to realize the final 
result of their labor. 

New facilities now opened or pres- 
ently being completed will provide 
students with the long-clamored for 
"pla^ to go." However, a place in 
itself can do nothing, it is merely a 
setting, a backdrop, the stage on which 
a play can make big-time or close on 



opening night. It is up to the stu- 
dents, the actors and actresses, to make 
or break it. 

Stage-center: The Waldo S. Tip- 
pin Gymnasium has probably contri- 
buted the greatest variety of opportun- 
ities in the history of this school. What- 
ever your sport — swimming or bridge, 
handball, soccer or squash, golf, table- 
tennis or touch-football, there is a pro- 
gram designed for you. 

Stage-Right: The new student un- 
ion — soon to be opened and soon to be- 
come the place to meet and greet — 
will feature pool tables, color T.V., 
card tables, carpeting, and many ex- 
tras. 

Stage-Left: Converted locker rooms 
are becoming the setting for much 
activity. One houses the busy staffs 
of the Call and the Sequelle, while the 
other, in sunlight disguised as the 
"Day Room," will soon be the scene of 
the debut of a Readers' Theatre cof- 
fee house. 

So here it is: Opening night, the 
stage is set, the light man ready, there 
is a shuffling of cue cards, a hush 
spreads through the audience, the cur- 
tain is about to rise, and the show — • 
the show is yours for the stealing. 
— Margaret Beierle

Aliimnus Returns 
As Instructor 

By EUGENE WALTERS 

R. Dennis Hetrick, a 1965 graduate of Cla- 
rion State, has returned as an instructor in 
the Department of Speech Pathology and 
Audiology. Mr. Hetrick was gratified at being 
hired by his Alma Mater because he feels 
that it shows that the teachers he studied 
under have faith in his ability and feel that 
he has something worthwhile to contribute 
to his field. 

Mr. Hetrick is 28, single, and a native of 
Rimersburg, Pa. He attended Union High 
in Rimersburg, lettered in football four years, 
and was voted all-conference quarterback 
during his senior year. He comes from a 
family of athletes; his father and older bro- 
ther were also all-conference quarterbacks, 
and his younger brother is presently playing 
guard oa the Union Joint High School team. 

Boxed as a Marine 

After gra>.'uating from high school, Mr. Het- 
rick enlisted in the Marine Corps and served 
for three years. While in the Marines he 
boxed for a time as a middleweight (150 
pounds) and was undefeated. He also served 
as an admiral's guard. This is considered 
a great honor and the men serving as ad- 
miral's guards are traditionally the cream 
of the corps. 

In 1961 Mr, Hetrick enrolled at Clarion 
State. While a student he was president and 
honor member of Sigma Alpha Eta, a pro- 
fessional fraternity concerned with speech 
and hearing. He was president and a char- 
ter member of the Council for Exceptional 
Children. He was also an active member 
of Phi Sigma Pi, education's honor fraternity. 
Mr. Hetrick majored in speech and minored 
in speech correction. 

From September 1965 to January 1968, Mr. 
Hetrick studied at Purdue University in West 
Lafayette, Indiana. He wrote his thesis on 
"The Influence of Vowel Articulations on the 
Position of a Nares-Esophageal Catheter." 
This investigation proved useful in the study 
of transillumination of the larynx and the 
indirect determination of subglottal air pres- 
sure. In January 1988, Mr. Hetrick was grant- 
ed a Master of Science degree in Speech 
Pathology. 

Teaches Three Courses 

From January to June of 1968, Mr. Hetrick 
was employed by the Alfred I. duPont Spe- 
cial School District in suburban Wilmington, 
Delaware. He served as a speech pathologist 
and also participated in a federal research 
project" (Project Child) concerned with the 
early identification of learning disabilities. 

Currently Mr. Hetrick's work is keeping 
him extremely busy. He is teaching three 
courses— Education of Exceptional Children, 
Neurological Impairment, and Professional 
Practicum. In addition to his classroom dut- 
ies, Mr. Hetrick is the college supervisor 
for five student teachers in speech pathology 
and audiology. 

When asked how he felt about his present 
position Mr. Hetrick replied, "I'm quite sat- 
(isfied with my present situation and feel pro- 
fessionally stimulated by the Speech Patho- 
logy and Audiology Department. I feel my 
colleagues have made and will continue to 
make valuable contributions both to the col- 
lege and to the field of speech pathology 
and audiology. I am very happy to be a 
part of a department of this caliber.' 

Clarion to Host 
Anthropology Group 

Next Friday and Saturday the Archaeolo- 
gical Association of Clarion State College will 
host an anthropology class from the Corning, 
New York, Community College. The trip, 
which is sponsored by the Corning .Anthro- 
pology Club, will give the students an oppor- 
tunity to see the CSC club in action. 

Overnight housing is needed for the 2^ 
students and their instructor. Any person in- 
terested in hosting a student is urged to 
contact Dr. Gustav Kcmitzky. 



Becht Hall Elects 
Dormitory Officers W 

Janie Ohop was elected president of Becht 
Hall in last week's election. The vice presi- 
dent is Mary Palmer; secretary is Lynn Mor- 
row; treasurer, Diane Knapp; and referral 
board chairman is Marcia Evanko. 

This year's committee heads have also been 
chosen. They are: fire, health, and safety,

thy Peterson. 

Mrs. Robinson, after suffering an accident 
at Forest Manor, has returned to Becht Hall, 
joining the head resident, Mrs. Thompson. 

Math Department 
Offering Film Series 

A weekly film series is currently being 
offered to Clarion students by the Mathema- 
tics Department. 

These films are shown every Tuesday eve- 
ning in Peirce Science Center. Although these 
films are shown especially for elementary 
and secondary mathematics majors, any in- 
terested student or faculty is welcome. 

There are two film series provided by the 
Madison Project Mathematics Films and the 
Mathematics Association of America. The 
Madison Project shows an actual elementary 
school class dealing with the newer mathe- 
matics concepts, with classes conducted by 
Dr. Robert Davis of Syracuse University and 
Webster College. The second series deals 
with more advanced topics. 

Some of the recent showings included 
"Three Faces of Mathematics," "Matrices," 
and "Complex Number.-, Via Matrices." On 
Tuesday, October 15, the Mathematics De- 
partment will be showing "Open Sentences 
and the Number Line" and "Introduction to 
Postman Stories." Time listing will be in 
the daily bulletin.

Bechf Hall Sophomore 
Spent Year in Sweden 



By JERRILYN JONES 

Most American students are intrigued by 
Sweden. Much has been printed about Swed- 
ish "lack of morality" and odd Swedish cus- 
toms. But how much do we as Americans 
know about the Swedes besides the fact that 
their country is the economic leader of Eur- 
ope? 

Larilyn Andre, a resident of Chicora, Pa., 
qnd a sophomore at Clarion, can provide 
us with some answers. Larilyn is an English 
Biajor here and lives in Becht Hall. In the 
summer of 1966, Larilyn went to Sweden 
as part of the American Field Service's stu- 
dent exchange plan. She spent a httle over 
a year there, returning in August 1967, in 
time to come to Clarion. 

Stayed in Baden 

Larilyn traveled extensively in Sweden. 
Some of the places she visited were Norrbo- 
ten (in northern Sweden), Lapland, Skane, 
Stockholm, and the North Sea. Most of the 
time, however, she stayed at Boden, the main 
military and hospital center of northern Swe- 
den. Boden is located 10 miles inside the 
Arctic circle, and it took awhile for Larilyn 
to accustom herself to the long periods of 
dark and daylight. 

Did it take Larilyn long to adjust to life 
in Sweden? She says about three months— 
the time given her to learn the Swedish lan- 
guage. "I tried not to be a tourist; I tried 
to get inside the Swedish culture and way 
of life." It took a while, Larilyn claims, 
to get used to eating purposely rotted fish 
and food with blood in it. She also accus- 
tomed herself to drinking wine with meals. 
The Swedish attitude towards children took 
• while to get used to; children are treated 
as adults once they graduate from elemen- 
tary school. 

Like Pop Music 

Larilyn believes that there are several sim- 
ilarities between Swedish students and their 
American counterparts. "They are both hunt- 
ing for happiness in life." Swedish students, 
according to Larilyn, like pop music but don't 
restrict themselves to the American brand. 
Their favorite group is the Beach Boys. 

The differences between American and 
Swedish students are more pronounced. Swed- 
ish students, says Larilyn, know more about 
world affairs. They shov; hardly any social 
bias and are open-minded about life, especial- 
ly sex. To the typical young Swede, sex it 
not a subject to be talked about behind closed 
doors. Parents do not frown or disinherit 
their daughter when she goes to a special 
lodge to spend a week or two with the boy 
she plans to marry; her action is logical 




LARILYN ANDRE 

for such a period tests the compatibility of 
the couple. 

Enjoyed Her Stay 

What impressions do the Swedes have of 
Americans? They're not flattering. Larilyn 
stated that most Swedes believe American 
students are narrow-minded and prejudiced: 
"They say we don't understand ourselves." 
Swedish opinion is that Americans are phy- 
sically lazy and that we don't get enough 
fresh air. Swedish advice to Americans: Slow 
down. Think. Enjoy life. 

When asked if she enjoyed her stay, Larilyn 
responded with an emphatic "Yes!" Her 
main reason was that in Sweden she was 
given a chance to better understand herself 
and others. She found a tranquility there 
thJit she believes is lacking in American life. 
She enjoyed the country, especially the tun- 
dra where she spent most of her vacation. 
Most of all she enjoyed the sports: "Every- 
one there is engaged in some sport . . . ski- 
ing, bicycling and even birdwatching." 

Larilyn was greatly impressed by Sweden 
and its people. She plans to return to Sweden 
after graduation to teach English. 



Members Selected for 
New Concert Season 



Edward Roncone, assistant professor of 
music and conductor of the Clarion State 
College Symphony Orchestra, announced this 
week the forty-three instrumentalists who will 
play in the orchestra's 1968-1969 concert sea-

Fantasy Writers 
Hold Workshop 

From June 24 to August 2 last summer 
a writers' workshop in science fiction and 
fantasy was held in Clarion. 

The workshop, directed by Dr. Robin Scott 
Wilson, professor of English on the Clarion 
faculty, was open to everyone of college 
age or above. The copyrights to three of 
the stories produced in this workshop were 
sold. One story will appear in the work Orbit 
5, and the other two will appear in the work 
entitled Again Dangerous Vision. 

The visiting staff at the Clarion workshop 
were Judith Merril. Fritz Leiber, Harlan El- 
lison. Damon Knight, and Kate Wilhelm. Jud- 
ith Merril has been a writer and an editor 
for 20 years. Fritz Leiber has been writing 
fiction for 30 years. His novel Conjecture Wife 
has been twice made into a movie. The es- 
sential idea for the television series "Be- 
witched " came from Leibers novel. Harlan 
Ellison has written 500 short stories and 17 
novels. Many of his short stories have ap- 
peared in Playboy. Mr. Ellison has also writ- 
ten scripts for the television series "Man 
From Uncle," "Star Trek," "Twilight Zone," 
and several others. Damon Knight, a fore- 
most critic in speculative fiction, and his 
wife, Kate Wilhelm, conduct the annual Mil- 
ford Writers Convention. 

This type of workshop was unique since 
it was the first one ever held in this country 
or in the world. There were 25 participants; 
the personalities of these participants is per- 
haps the most interesting facet of the work- 
shop. Their ages ranged from 18 to 64 years. 
The professions represented included a re- 
tired surgeon, college students both graduate 
and undergraduate, housewives, teachers, a 
computer programmer, two journalists, and 
a research plant pathologist. Dr. C. Davis 
Belcher, the retired surgeon, wrote a 12,000 
word novelette on the foreseeable legal pro- 
blems of organ transplants. This work will 
appear in Damon Knight's forthcoming col- 
lection of short stories, Orbit 5. This novelette 
is also being considered for television. 

Dr. Wilson is planning on holding this work- 
shop again this coming .summer. Dr. Wilson's 
mo.st recent story, "A Chair of Comparative 
Leisure," will appear in the forthcoming issue 
of Amalog.

BATTLE OF EAGLES 



Berberian to Present Cello 



Golden Eagles Scalp Recital Wednesday in Chapel 

Bald Eagles, 14-3 



The Clarion defense hung tough Saturday, 
October 5, as the Golden Eagles romped over 
the Lock Haven Bald Eagles, 14-3, in a night 
contest for their first win of the season in 
the PSCAC conference. 

Taking the ball to the Clarion 12 on the 
third play of the game, Lock Haven drew 
first blood on a field goal by Huntzinger. 

All the rest of the scoring came in the 
second quarter as Bill Wise accounted for 
two TD's. In the first case, the Etna full- 
back crashed over from the five after the 
Jacksmen had sustained a 72-yard drive from 
their own 28. In the second instance, Lock 
Haven punted to the Clarion 46, and Bob 
Oberdorf ran it back to the l.<K:k Haven 
26. Wise then plunged over from the nine- 
yard line on a 17-yard pass from Bob Erdel- 
Jac. 

Tightness of the Golden Eagle defense was 
evident as the Clarion squad gave up only 
35 yards rushing and 136 yards passing to 
the Bald Eagles. Clarion intercepted two pas- 
ses, one by Fran Sirianni and one by Art 



Tragesser, after Lock Haven's deepest pene- 
tration of the day to the six-yard line. 

What looked at first glance like the play 
of the evening came in the third period as 
Art Triveri recovered a fumble on the Cla- 
rion 18 and ran 82 yards for naught as the 
play was called back due to the college rule 
prohibiting running with a fumble. 

Jim Becker made four catches for 71 yards 
before going out via the injury route. Larry 
McNulty had four for 60, and Rick Terza 
had three for 33. Bill Wise rushed 29 times 
for 109 yards, Jim Kocan rushed nine for 
32 and Mike Giunta, recapturing his old 1967 
form, made five for 22. 

Standouts in the contest which gave Clarion 
a 3-1 record for the season thus far, werel 
Jim Jones, Art Triveri, Fran Sirianni, Elmer 
S^huetz, and Art Tragesser. 

The Golden Eagles are looking ahead with 
somewhat more confidence to tomorrow's 
Homecoming game with Edinboro, particular- 
ly after the 58-0 drubbing taken by the Fight- 
ing Scots last weekend at the hands of In- 
diana. 



As I See It . . . 



By GARY ANDRES 

Football players are a special breed of 
men. They heal faster and bleed less than 
most people. 

Clarion came back with a 14-3 victory over 
the Bald Eagles of Lock Haven. In the first 
quarter. Clarion had to give up the football 
on the Lock Haven 42-yard line, when the 
Bald Eagle linemen blitzed CSC quarterback, 
Bob Erdeljac. Quarterback Denny Rhule and 
end Tim Ryan moved the ball to the Clarion 
eight-yard line. 

The Clarion defense never gave an inch. 
In three attempts, the Clarion defense took 
back four yards from Lock Haven. The wall 
stood and forced Craig Huntzinger and the 
JLock Haven squad to settle for a field goal. 
Lock Haven three, and Clarion zero. 

Andy Brindger moved the kickoff from the 
18 to the 28-yard line of Clarion. A 22-yard 
pass to Larry McNulty brought the ball in 
on the Lock Haven 43-yard line. With 14:22 
left in the second quarter, 6ill Wise, on brute 
power, bulled into the end zone from five 
yards out. John Dorish booted the point. CSC 
seven. Lock Haven three. 

Three and a half minute« later, Clarion 
added its second tally. A poor punt and look- 
in pass to Larry McNulty put the ball on 
the Lock Haven nine-yard line in two plays. 
Bill Wise at fullback drove it in for the 
touchdown. Iron Toe kicked his seventh ex- 
tra point of the season without a miss, to 
make it CSC 14, Lock Haven 3. 

The 14 points proved to be all the Clarion 
offense was going to get, and the three for 
Lock Haven, all the Clarion defense was go- 
ing to give, but neither conclusion was ob- 
vious until the final gun. 

Jim Becker had to leave the game before 
the close of the first half. He was slammed 
by a Lock Haven pass defender breaking 
up Clarion's 12 to 20 combination. 

In the second half, in the chill autumn 
air, the defense of both teams locked horns. 
Despite this being Clarion's first night game, 
neither team could find any daylight in the 
opposing team's line. Lock Haven wa$ given 
a break when a fumbled punt gave them 
the ball on Clarion's own 41-yard line. The 
drive carried 35 yards to the CSC six-^ard 
line. On the first and goal situation, Fran 
Sirianni of CSC intercepted a pass in the 
Bald Eagle endzone. The breaks canceled 
each other out and Lock Haven defense was 
improved from the first half. 

With 13:14 left in the fourth quarter, Art 
Triveri of Clarion romped downfield amidst 
dazed Lock Haven tacklers. The touchdown 
was called back because the Lock Haven 
fumble was ruled a dead ball. 

The fourth quarter ended after Lock Haven 
and Clarion defense took turns mauling each 
other's offense. Gang tackling, scrambling, 
and muscle football kept the final period 
in suspense. 

The ability to score and stop the other 
team from doing the same wins football 
games. It was never quite so apparent as 
In the Lock Haven game. A Clarion defense 
led by Jim Jones, Rich Smith, Rich McWil- 
liams, and Art Tragesser selfishly allotted 
hoclt Haven rushing, nine yards the first 
half, and a total rushing offense of 35 yards! 

The whole team, a total team effort, com- 



bined in a solid unit to win. Coach Al Jacks 
said, "It was Clarion's toughest game this 
season."

Plaver of the Week 

Jim Jones has been named player of the 
week by Coach Al Jacks for his performance 
last Saturday night in the game against Lock 
Haven. 

Jim, a senior defensive tackle from La- 
trobe, stands six foot one-inch and weighs 
223 pounds; he shares the honor of co-cap- 
tain with another defensive tackle, Bob Ge- 
vaudan. 

Jim played football as a freshman and 
earned his starting position as a sophomore. 
Since then, Jim has become an integral part 
of the Clarion defense. He was a member 
of the 1966 state championship team and 
last year's Western Conference champions. 
If the Eagle defense can continue to hold 
its opponents to 35 yards as it did against 
Lock Haven, Jim Jones may play in yet 
another state championship game. 

In citing Jones, Coach Jacks said that Jim 
played "a real tough game" and that the 
coaching staff felt "he was an inspiration 
to the Eagles in helping them defeat a real 
good Lock Haven team."

New Building Planned; 
Clarion State is Expanding 



This year's Homecoming gives most alumni 
and visitors to Clarion State their first op- 
portunity to see the newly completed Waldo 
S. Tippin Gymnasium and Natatorium as well 
as the Donald D. Peirce Science Center, 
which was opened last January. 

It is evident that the once-a-year visitor 
to campus should be impressed by Clarion's 
rapidly expanding campus. But what lies 
ahead for future homecomings? A talk with 
Dr. David Hilton, assistant to the president, 
provides some of the answers. 

By next year. Homecoming of 1969, there 
should be three more new buildings open 
for use. The first will be the newly renovated 
Davis Hall, which will house the communica- 
tions division on campus plus an FM radio 
station. 

New Administration Building 

The second will be the new Administration 
Building at the corner of Ninth and Main 
streets which will house offices of the pre- 
sident, his assistants and several deans. 

The third and largest new building next 
year will be the Fine Arts Center. It will 
contain two theaters with a total seating cap- 
acity of nearly 2,000 persons. But this is 
only the beginning. 

Two years from now, at the 1970 Home- 



coming, visitors will be greeted by five new 
buildings. One will be the newly completed 
first phase of the Library addition; it will 
consist of the first four stories of the even- 
tual nine-story library tower. 

Two other new structures will be the seven- 
story dormitories now being started on Main 
Street near McKean Hall; each of these will 
have a capacity to house 450 students. 

I Health Center Planned 

The two other buildings that year will be 
the Health Center and the first phase of 
the Student Center. The Health Center will 
provide an infirmary and an out-patient clin- 
ic, while the first phase of the Student Center 
will provide a snack bar and lounge area. 
Also during Homecoming, 1970, visitors will 
be able to view a grassy plain where Becht 
Hall and Old Music Hall now stand. 

These are the buildings which are being 
constructed or are near construction. There 
are more in the hands of the architects and 
the same number approved, but not placed. 
So. as you return year after year for Home- 
coming, keep your eyes open, there will be 
more and more each year for you to see.

Trophies Are Presented 
For Outstanding Floats 



At the Annua! Autumn Leaf Festival Par- 
ade last Saturday, trophies were presented 
for outstanding floats. 

Theme of this year's parade was "Am- 
erica the Beautiful" and Clarion State Col- 
lege was well represented in the parade 
through the efforts of its sororities, frater- 
nities, and other college organizations, who 
created some magnificently colorful and ori- 
ginal floats. 

Among the sororities, prizes went to Delta 
Zeta, first place; Sigma, Sigma, Sigma, se- 
cond place; and third place to Zeta Tau 
Alpha. The sisters of Delta Zeta won with 
a "Horn of Plenty" overflowing with colorful 
fruit. The Tri Sigs had for their theme, 
"America— Dreams to Reality." The theme 
was represented by a water wheel and scen- 
ery as seen in the dreams of a small boy. 
Last year, Tri Sigma sorority won first prize 
Alphas* origmal fioat was entitled ''America 
— God's Crucible." It pictured a melting pot 
supported by hands of all races. 



by DIANNA CHERRY 

In the fraternity division, the Theta Zi's 



won first place with their float "The Beauty 
of Liberty", complete with a flaming statue 
of liberty. Phi Sigma Epsilon took second 
place with "Keep America Beautiful." It fea- 
tured a car on a map with the driver litter- 
ing the highways. Sigma Tau Gamma placed 
third with "You Make America Beautiful," 
a series of mirrors arranged interestingly 
under a rotating Uncle Sam. 

In the dependent category, Venango Cam- 
pus placed first with "Stamp out Litter Bugs" 
depicting a huge foot stamping out a litter- 
bug. Jefferson and McKean Halls were second 
with "America Welcomes a Short Way to 
Beauty." They pictured a huge autumn leaf 
and a highway with Uncle Sam and the CSC 
eagle at the front of the float. The Day 
Students were third with the Santa Maria in 
honor of Columbus Day. 

Best float of the parade went to the Lions 
Club of Clarion. 



OPINION POLL 



By Rosemary Slebodnik 

This week a poll was taken among 100 
of our college women. The question posed 
to them was: "Are you for or against the 
present sign-out system?" The result of the 
poll was 86 percent against the present sys- 
tem, nine percent for it, and five who chose 
to remain non-committed. 

Some of the girls were then asked to com- 
ment upon the present system. Here are some 
of their individual replies: 

Sue Flood— "I don't think it serves its pur- 
pose, because girls take it too much for 
granted that you can sign out for anywhere, 
as long as you sign out. I feel if your par- 
ents give you permission to go anywhere, 
th sign-out system should be used only in 
the case of an emergency, and since it does- 
n't work for this purpose, it should be 
changed to a more permissive system." 

Lynn Mason— "I dont like it. The problem 
is that it's hard to say where you're going 
to be. If you want to go three or five places, 
how can you sign out for all those places? 
Actually, its ^n invasion of privacy." 

Marilyn Reber — "I think it's too much fuss. 
It's none of anyone's business where we go 
or with whom." 

Nancy Henderson— "The sign-out system is 
a necessary thing, but here it is, for all 
purposes, worthless. Since most weekend so- 
cial events are illegal, what girl would sign 
out legally, when all the housemother has 
to do is check her card to find that there 
is an illegal party? 

"Maybe the dorms could be operated like 
apartment houses, eliminating sign-outs, and 
placing all responsibility on each girl. Maybe 
we could put a 'senior dorm' into operation 
which would have different hours, or a dif- 
ferent sign-out system than other dorms." 

Pat Dobson— "I think it's useless and a 
waste of time to sign out. I feel this way 
because when signing out, you may have no 
idea where you're going, thus they cannot 
find you in an emergency, anyway. I'd re- 
commend that the system be done away with 
completely." 

Debbie McKelvey — "I think it's necessary 
to have in case of an emergency, but I 
know it's not being used right. I think it 
would be sufficient to say with whom you 
are going out." 

Dodie Fleming— "Since we have certain 
hours, we should be expected to sign in and 
out. But nobody has to know where you are 
going, and whom you are going with, as long 
as you come in on time." 

Dee Menozza — "I don't think it's anybody's 
business where we go. I think it would 
be a good idea to turn the sign-out books 



in to the housemother, so that the boys are 
not able to read them." 

Most women students merely amplify what 
these women have already said. It is the 
consensus that sign-outs are almost unnec- 
essary and an invasion of privacy. CSC wo- 
men are bearing with the obsolete system 
while waiting and hoping for something 
much better.

CLARION STATE COLLEGE — CLARION, PENNSYLVANIA

Homecoming Is A Success; Former Penn State Professor 



Tippin Gym Is Dedicated 



Sunny autumn skies set the mood for the 
past weekend as hundreds of alumni and 
students turned out for the 1968 Homecoming 
events at Clarion State College. 

Beginning Friday night, October 11, a pep 
rally was held in the parking lot near Chand- 
ler Hall; later that evening the social com- 
mittee of the Student Senate sjwnsored a 
dance featuring the "Entertainers" at Forest 
Manor. 

The scene Saturday morning was centered 
around the dedication of the new Waldo S. 
Tippin Gymnasium-Natatorium. Attended by 
alumni, faculty, students, and honored guests 
from state agencies and political life, the 
ceremony and the college honored Waldo S. 
Tippin, for 31 years Clarion State's athletic 
director and now living in retirement near 
Clarion, by dedicating its new spacious $2.5 
million gymnasium-natatorium to him. 

Tippin Tribute Paid 

During the ceremony, Robert E. Lenker, 
executive assistant. General State Authority, 
gave H. Ray Pope, Jr., vice president of 
the Board of Trustees, a symbo'ic key in 
presenting the building to the college. In 
his acceptance remarks, Mr. Pope paid tri- 
bute to Mr. Tippin and gave him the in- 
scribed key, saying: "He (Tippin) has the 
ability to pass on to others the character- 
istics of his life which made it so full and 
abundant." 

In response, Mr. Tippin reminisced on the 
experiences and associations of his athletic 
career and envisioned the full use of the 
new facility in providing a greatly-expanded 
athletic program at Clarion. He expressed 
deep appreciation for himself and his family 
to college officials, alumni, and students for 
the honor bestowed in giving the building his 
name. 

Distinguished guests introduced by Dr. 
James Gemmell, Clarion State's president, 
were the Honorable Grace M. Sloan, Pennsyl- 
vania Auditor-General; state senator and 
Mrs. Albert R. Pechan; state representatives 
George W. Alexander and Alvin Kahle; Cla- 
rion County Commission C. Brady Weaver, 
and Darl Callen, special assistant to the Aud- 
itor General and former business manager 
at Clarion State. 

Board of Trustees members recognized 
were Chester Byerly and Mrs. Byerly, New 
Bethlehem; H. Carl Wasson, Franklin. Dr. 
Philip W. Silviss, Tionesta; H. Ray Pope, 
Jr. and Mrs. Pope, Clarion; E. Clinton Stitt, 



Kittanning; and Mrs. WiUiam C. Hearst and 
Mr. Hearst, Clarion. 

Family Attends 

Also introduced were Mr. and Mrs. Waldo 
S. Tippin, Sr.; Mr. and Mrs. Waldo S. Tippin, 
Jr.; Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Tippin; Miss Myrtle 
Tippin; Mr. and Mrs. Orris Marshall; Mr. 
and Mrs. Allen George, and the grandchildren 
of the honoree. 

Guests from the athletic world introduced 
were athletic directors William B. Carson, 
Youngstown State University; and Eugene 
J. Hester, California State College, and Alex- 
ander V. Sandusky, Clarion '52, recreation 
specialist with the Department of Chesapeake 
Bay Affairs, state of Maryland, and former 
pro football player with the Baltimore Colts. 

Stealing the midday scene was the 15th 
Annual Autumn Leaf Festival-Homecoming 
parade, a gala colorful two hour spectacle 
of floats, clowns, marching and musical units 
and officials. Participating in the parade, 
whose theme was "America the Beautiful," 
from the college were the Golden Eagle 
Marching Band, 19 campus organizations' 
floats, and college officials and trustees. 

Homecoming Court Presented 

Following the parade, the Clarion State 
Golden Eagles football team defeated the 
Highlanders of Edinboro, 37-13. The half-time 
show featured the coronation of CSC's Home- 
coming Queen, Barbara Dimmerling, by Pre- 
sident Gemmell, and the presentation of her 
court: Peggy Luscomb and Pat Angel, fresh- 
men; Michol Sam and Beverly Lechner, soph- 
omores; Sharon Hall and Marsha Kramarik, 
juniors; and Sandy Brody, senior. These girls 
were escorted onto the field by Tom Paolino, 
Ed Gladora, Rich MihaUc, Bob Dragovich, 
Joe Filia, Larry Cope, Mike Johnson, and 
Rich Flore. Laura Williams, the second senior 
attendant, was unable to attend because of 
a family illness. In additon, there were per- 
formances by the Golden Eagle Band under 
the direction of Dr. Stanley F. Michalski, 
and the Fighting Scots Band from Edinboro 
directed by Dr. Donald Paiuitrui. 

Completing the day's activities was a semi- 
formal alumni-student dance in Chandler 
Hall, which featured the Contrails and the 
Brooklyn Bridge, who put on an excellent 
show. 

Concluding the weekend activities of Cla- 
rion State College's 1968 Homecoming was 
an open house at all campus residence halls 
Sunday afternoon. 



Law and Order Labeled 
Code Word for Racism 



by ED 

The panel of the campaign discussion of 
last Monday evening seemed to be in agree- 
ment about the law and order issue of Cam- 
paign 1968. To wish for law and order, it 
seems, is tantamount to being a racist. At 
least this is what the decision of the panel 
would lead us to believe. Law and order 
was tagged a "phony" issue, because the 
President of the United States has no author- 
ity over local law enforcement. 

The panel consisted of Dr. Joel Haines, 
moderator; Ngo Dinh Tu, Dr. Sarjitt Singh, 
Emmett Graybill, and Jay VanBruggen. 

The discussion was limited to two major 
issues; law and order, and Vietnam. Mr. 
Graybill began by saying that the crime rate 
of America is going up faster than the rate 
of population. He attributed this in part, 
to better recording methods of the police 
deparments. Mr. Graybill charged that law 
and order was a phony issue, because the 
president has only moral power over the na- 
tion's law enforcement agencies. This state- 
ment was later contested on the grounds that 
the president, as commander-in-chief of the 
armed forces, can authorize the use of na- 
tional guard and federal troops if it is deem- 
ed necessary. 

Mr. Van Bruggen made the charge that 
law and order was a code word for racism. 
He stated that law and order was a short- 
handed way to keep the Negro in his place. 
Mr. Graybill added that the local and state 
governments in the South have deprived the 
Negro of his rights. George Wallace, by the 
way, wants to return more power to the 
state and local governments. 

One member of the audience stated that 
rioting was nothing new in the history of 
America. He cited the Anti-Draft Riots of 
1863 in New York City, which cost a total 
of 2,000 lives, and said that when the poor 
are given justice, the riots will end. Unfortun- 
ately, the draft riots of 1863 are n(rt much 
consolation to the businessman of 1968 who 
has been ruined because of rioters and loot- 
ers. Families, both black and white, may 
lose their homes and possessions before tlte 



WOZNIAK 

poor decide that they have been given justice. 

The latter part of the discussion was dom- 
inated by the Vietnam issue. Mr. Tu accused 
Nixon of dealing with "glittering generali- 
ties." Wallace, he said, thinks in terms of 
a clearcut victory while Humphrey wants 
to stop bombing in Vietnam. Mr. Tu also 
speculated that we cannot win the Vietnam 
War. He said that contrary to some opinons, 
retired General Curtis LeMay would not advo- 
cate use of nuclear weapons in Vietnam. 

Mr Andor P-Jobb, a member of the aud- 
ience, then gave some first-hand information 
of his experience while living in commun- 
ist-dominated Hungary. He stated that the 
Communists teach the people not to fear 
nuclear war and that war is inevitable. Mr. 
P-Jobb criticized American professors for not 
educating their students about the Communist 
threat. 

Some of the ideas proposed by the panel 
were extremely controversial, and the re- 
sponses of the audience reflected it. It was 
quite obvious that many people do not be- 
lieve that law and order is a code for racism 
or a phony issue. The national election in 
November will show just how many peo|ne 
believe in law and order. 



NEW POLICY SET FOR 
CALL DISTRIBUTION 

A new policy for distribution of the Clar- 
ion Call goes into effect today, Friday, Octo- 
ber 19. The Call will NOT be delivered to 
the dorms. Instead, newspapers will be 
placed in key positions throughout the cam- 
pus. These positions include the Student 
Union, Library, Book Store, Chandler Din- 
ing Hall, and the Call office. Any student 
desiring a copy of the Call must pick one 
up in these designated places.

Senate Meeting Held Wed.; 
Highlights Are Reviewed 



A regular meeting of the Clarion State 
College Student Senate was held on Wednes- 
day, October 9. At this meeting, the resigna- 
tion of a junior senator, Thom M. Werthman, 
was received and accepted by the Student 
Senate. Each Senator was requested to sub- 
mit a name of one person who qualifies for 
Student Senator to replace him. 

"the following other matters of concern were 
handled at this meeting: 

(1) $12,000 was transferred from the Student 
Union fund to the Fee Supported Fund, which 
will be used as additional funds to renovate 
Harvey Hall. 

(2) Dr. Nanovsky was assigned to work 
with Mr. Klingensmith in taking an inven- 
tory of all equipment not presently being 
used in order that a price be affixed for 



the sale of all equipment, and that all money 
from the sale be put in the Fee Supported 
Fund. 

(3) Flowers were sent to the Wescott fam- 
ily. 

(4) The budget was approved for publica- 
tion in the Call, and mimeographed copies 
will be ma.le available to all students who 
wish to see it. 

(5) A proposal was brought up to set up 
a fund to back any organization on campus 
which wants to sponsor an activity. It was 
decided that mimeographed copies of the pro- 
posal would be used in the next issue to 
further discuss the issue. 

All students are urged to attend future 
Senate meetings.

Editorially 
Speaking 



Rah, Rah, Rah?? 



A lack of support and enthusiasm 
was most evident at last weekend's 
Homecoming football game. The stands 
were packed, hundreds lined the fence, 
but there were no signs of support for 
our (lolden Eagles. Edinboro's cheer- 
ing section was approximately one- 
eight the size of ours, and they out 
cheered us. If we are number one, 
why don't we act like it? 

We have a championship team, 
and we ai e not the only ones who think 
so. Lock Haven's head coach, Herb 
Jack, stated, "They were just too good 
for us. They have a tough defense and 
Erdlejac is the best passer we've fac- 
ed." Jack also added, "They looked 
better than California." We aren't the 
only ones who know that we are NUM- 
BER ONE. 

Suzie Albanesi and Rainie Martin 
took it unon themselves to become 
"Golden Eagles." They spent many, 
long hours in prepaiation for the pep 
rally, bonfire, and the game. These 
girls, however, only number two, and 
two students are certainly not enough 
to merit praise. From the apparent 
lack of support, the general l3ulk of 
Clarion students do not care. 

Tomorrow, we are playing our 
long-time rival, Indiana. This is not 
a conference game, but Indiana is un- 
defeated and have allowed their op- 
ponents only 31 total points as com- 
pared to the Indian's total points of 
222. Our Golden Eagles can defeat 
Indiana, but they need the support of 
the entire student body. They need 
to know that you, the students, care 
whether they win or lose. 

We are all proud of our team when 
they win a championship game or a 
conference title, and we do support 
them THEN. But, it takes a winning 
season WITH student support to allow 
this to be accomplished. If we want 
the championship, if we want to retam 



our title of "Number One," then we 
must support our team now. 

This lack of support manifests it- 
self into all facets of (Marion's activi- 
ties. Clarion's pep rallies have in the 
past followed a tradition of lacking in 
attendance and lacking in spirit. Last 
Friday night a pep rally was held; there 
was a large attendance, but those who 
were present did nothing but stand 
around and stare. A pep rally is for 
CHEERING, SCREAMING, and PSY- 
CHING the team. Our pep rallies do 
not accomplish any of these; in fact, 
the only thing they do accomplish is 
show the team how much the .students 
don't care. The pen rallies are never 
any longer than 45 minutes. Don't 
you as students have 45 minutes that 
you can devote to supporting your 
team? 

The point being made is not that 
the students of Clarion don't care if we 
win or not, because they do WANT to 
win. But, our team has been winning, 
and we are used to winning. Conse- 
quently, the games are well attended, 
but attending is not enough. The team 
should be shown that the students are 
interested in other ways besides win- 
ning. 

We understand that many enjoy 
watching the football games, but do the 
fans JUST have to sit there and watch? 
The stands do come alive when we 
score a touchdown, but this is the only 
time our team knows we are there. 
Does it have to be this way? Can't we 
have a school spirit that is comparable 
to the quality of our football team? 

.Tomorrow at the game, let our 
team know that the students of Clarion 
are behind them. Show them that you 
care. Show them that they have YOUR 
support. Show them that they are 
NUMBER ONE, and YOU know it.

LeVs Become Involved in the 
Presidential Election of 1968 



National elections will be held in 
approximately three weeks. Tension 
is rising throughout the nation, and 
people everywhere are strongly sup- 
porting the candidates of their choice. 

Presidential elections seem to 
bring out the strongest emotions of 
both the old and the young. College 
age students are surely no exception; 
in fact, students generally become 
more involved, and are more interested 
in what is happening than any other 
American "age" group. 

Through our exchange system 
with other college newspapers, we have 
noted several strongly biased letters 
and articles written on the coming elec- 
tion by members of various student 
bodies. These students are expressing 
their views, and are becoming involved 
in controversies with their fellow stu- 
dents The national election is alive 
on other campu.ses. and these students 
seem to care about the outcome. 

Here at Clarion, however, there 
does not seem to be much concern 
about the presidential elections. Some 
students have definite opinions about 
their favorite candidates, but many are 
still uncommitted. In any event, those 
who do feel stront^ly are not express- 
ing their views. This does not say much 
for the Clarion student. Why can't we, 
at least, become as involved as many 
of our fellow-students; at other col- 
leges? 

Those who are now committed 
could have a definite influence on those 
who aren't. Whv not start an all-cam- 
pus campaign now? 

In the coming three weeks, we 
would like to see buttons being worn 
by students all over the campus, pos- 
ters plastered everywhere, and stu- 
dents openly supporting candidates. 



We wouM also like to have letters and 
articles turned in to this paper from 
students supporting all three of the 
major candidates. 

We are encouraging a controversy. 
We v/ant the political issue of the presi- 
dential election to come alive at Clar- 
ion. 

A mock election is now being plan- 
ned by the Call staff. We feel that this 
election will help students become 
more involved and will help make us 
feel like we play an active part in our 
nation's activities. 

In the next few weeks, we will also 
he conducting polls which are centered 
around the election so that the students 
can become ;iiore aware of where their 
candidate stands in proportion to the 
other candidates. 

We urge you, the students of Clar- 
ion, to help us conduct this political 
drive. This venture could prove to be 
fun as well as enlightening. 

This election more than any other 
in our history, is highly controversial. 
The issues are pertinent, and they, 
more than any other issue in our life- 
time, concern US. 

For this reason, we have a right to 
be concerned. Let's, therefore, show 
that we care — let's make Election '68 
a memorable part of our stay at CSC!

Economous and Cole Will Head 
Two New Divisions at Clarion 



TH/^T'S.-A" NO-NO!! 



Deans of two new divisions at Clarion State 
College have been named by college presi- 
dent, Dr. James Gemmell.

Letters; to tlie Editor 



To All Students: 

Last week's dance held at Forest Manor 
was a di.sappoinlment to the members of the 
Social Committee because we anticipated a 
larger turnout. Everyone was complaining 
about a lack of social activities at CSC, but 
it seems that student support is lacking. Ap- 
proximately 375 students made their way to 
the confines of Forest Manor. Out of the 
2,912 students enrolled at Clarion, the num- 
ber that turned out was disgusting. If the 
newly scheduled activities are to be contin- 
ued, there MUST be a greater amount of 
support shown. 

To have $50Q and $800 groups for dances, 
you cannot expect the Social Committee to 
finance everything. We are allocated $11,000 
per semester, and to have the groups you 
want, you, the students, will have to pay. 

Everyone is saying that Pitt's and Edin- 
boro's Homecomings are far superior to ours, 
but do you realize the student enrollments at 
both these schools are larger than ours? Pitt 
pays approximately $75 per semester activi- 
ties fee. but to have Bob Hope and The New 
Hudson Exit for their Homecomitif, they have 
to pay an additional $6 per student to see 
this show. Clarion students pay $25 activity; 
how can we expect to have this same quality 
of performers, if we do not expect to pay 
for them? 

Student support is needed! Th^e will be a 
dance tonight at 9:00 in ChandBsr HaU fea- 
turing the "New Hudson Exit." This dance 
tonipht will determine if there will be further 
activities, if you care about the social activi- 
ties on this campus, YOU, the students, will 
be there tonight. 

DICK RIDDLE 

EDITOR'S REPLY 

Many students may feel that we are harp- 
ing on the same issue too often io this paper. 
But the fact is that this dance ' tonight will 
be a determining factor in whether or not we 
will continue to have paid entertainment on 
this campus. 

Several .students have stopped into the Call 
office this week with pleas of help in making 
the students aware of their responsibility on 
this issue. 

We, therefore, feel that it is our responsi- 
bility to back these organizations that want 
to make this campus socially active. 

Tho only way this will happen is with 
YOUR support, students. Go to the dance to- 
night. Help make "the suitcase college" a 
part of the past. 



Editor, The Call: 

In behalf of the James Wescott family I 
would like to thank the student body for 
their greatly appreciated concern. 

A special thanks to those students who 
on October 5, volunteered to give blood in 
Nancy's behalf, and to those who sent their 
condolences to the Wescott family.

concert at Edinboro. The admission price 
was $1.25 per person, and I believe this was 
sponsored by the student government at Ed- 
inboro. Again, they charged admission for a 
big-name entertainer. I might add that Edin- 
boro students pay a $25.00 activity fee, also. 
My point is this: It is very simple to charge 
admission lor a concert; Edinboro does it, 
and I understand other colleges do so, too. 
The Sigma Tau Gamma fraternity had the 
right idea, but it failed, due to unforseen 
circumstances. Does anyone else have the 
intestinal fortitude to try again? 

ALFRED R. SERFF 

EDITOR'S REPLY 

In reference to an article in last week's 
Call, I would like to answer your question 
with a simple "something has finally been 
done!" Three dances have been scheduled for 
October, which will be sponsored by the 
Greeks and other organizations on campus. 

One of these dances will be held tonigiii at 
9:00 in Chandler Hall featuring 'The New 
Hudson Exit." An admission price of $1.25 
is being charged. 

My point is this: It is very simple to 
charge admission for a concert, and we are 
putting this principle into effect. Now the 
success or failure of this venture is in the 
students' hands. But do the students of CSC 
really want good entertainment? I hope this 
dance will prove that they do. 
To the Students of Clarion State: 

Thfere is one organization on campus that 
directly affects every student enrolled here, 
yet no one seems interested in the Student 
Union Board's actions. 

Uitiler the chairmanship of Owen Winters 
and the advisorship of Dr. Nanovsky, the 
Student Union Board allocated Harvey Gym, 
with the direct help of Dr. Gemmell, for use 
as a Student Center. The Student Union 
Board then approached the Student Senate 
for an appropriation of approximately $50,000 
to convert the gymnasium into a recreation 
center. Except for the arrival of a color tele- 
vision, some furniture and eight billiard 
tables, the new Student Center is ready and 
will be opened soon. 

The Student Union Board also asked for 
the coats of arms, no larger than five feet by 
five feet, of every campus organization to be 
submitted for display in the snack bar. Get 
busy, fraternities and sororities! 

At present the board is wrestling with a 
constitution for itself, so it can sen-o the 
students better. So, if you see Owen Wi-.ters, 
Tony Mattern, Ray Yutzy, Randy Bums, 
Tom Paolino, Ray lenzi. Bill Nanovsky, or 
Marg Butler, let them know of vour ideas 
and suggestions for the Student Union. They 
represent your interests! 

LARRY CARTER 



Dear Editors, 

Bev Reed, chairman of the Homecoming 
Decorating Committee, and I would like to 
thank all those who helped in any way with 
our campus decorations. We would especially 
like to thank the men from Wilson Dormitory 
who helped Ed Giadora to construct the 
scale model of Seminary Hall on the Carlson 
Library lawn. 

Sincerely, ROSEBUD 



Editor, The Call: 

We have thoughtfully reviewed la-st week's 
editorial concerning signing out procedures 
for women students. Reading this editorial 
made us realize how foolish the present sys- 
tem is, and we feel compelled to express 
our views on this matter. 

Signing out is childish. If we are mature 
enough to accept the responsibility of living 
away from home and of college life, both 
academically and socially, then surely we 
should be able to leave the do'm without 
filing a thoroughly unconfidential report. 

Besides questioning our maturity and in- 
vading our privacy, signing out is not a suc- 
cessful practice. Surely the housemothers 
can't think they can locate us at all times. 
We're not always sure exactly where we're 
going and at exactly what time we'll be 
there. 

In the event of an emergency, there is 
usually someone in the dorm who can find 
a way to locate us. If not, the student will 
nnt be gone forever; she will be notified 
sooner or later. If a girl is on a date at 
home, for example, she cannot possibly 
be notified of an emergency until she gets 
home anyway. What makes college so dif- 
'■"•"•■t? Why can't it work the same way 
here? 

There are just a few points, but the major 
point is this: We agree with the editorial 
and we hope that something can be done 
to change this situation. 

You have our support! 

JOANNE MECKLEY, GTNN^ ELISH,

and help the students learn for themselves. 
Yet the professors continue to teach much 
as they have lor the past several years. 
Should not the one who cries innovate also 
be an innovator himseli? Or is the dual-stan- 
dard in effect ... "Do what I say, not what 
1 do!" 

Sincerely, CURTIS L. BARRETT 

Two Federal Grants 
Received At CSC 

'Dr?' James Gemmell, president of Clarion 
State College, has announced receipt of two 
$5,000 Federal grants from the Department 
of Health, Education and Welfare. Similar 
grants were awarded in 1%7 and 1936. 

Both grants are from the College Resourcps 
Program, Title II A Higher Education Act 
of 19 5 and are to be used for the acquisition 
of library materials. One grant will be used 
to purchase sets of journals for the Venango 
Campus Library; the other will be used for 
journals and books for the Clarion Campus 
library. In 1967, in addition to the two $5,000 
grants, a special purpose grant of $12,000 
was awarded for the acquisition of serials 
and monographs to be u.sed in newlv esta- 
blished graduate courses and the new pro- 
gram leading to a Bachelor of Science in 
Business Administration. 

The grants will continue to be a'lministered 
by Dan W. Graves, Director of the Rena 
M. Carlson Library. 

The Clarion Seeks Manuscripts 

All students are invited to submit original 
manu.scripts of plays, poems, short stories, 
sketches, or essays for publication in The 
Clarion. Leave typed manuscripts at the En- 
glish office, second floor a (ministration build- 
ing, or give them to Linda Mason, Sharon 
Hall. Vicki Vockroth or Rosemarie Szezerba, 
officers of Sigma Tau Delta. 



Dear Editor, 

It has been noted by this student that the 
college is pressing the future teachers from 
this institution to innovate new ideas within 
the elementary and secondary schools. 

My question is, "Why, if we are to change 
the methods of teaching, cannot we expect 
the same thing from our professors within 
the college?" The professors say innovate 



ATTENTION STUdSNTS 

The brothers of Alpha Gamma Phi would 
like to announce that a daiwe will be held 
at 9 o'clock tonight in Chandler Hall. The 
dance will feature "The New Hudson Exit." 
An admission price of $1.25 will be charged. 
All students are urged to attend. 



To the editor. 

Concerning the question of paying for top- 
name entertainment, I would like to submit 
my experiences at Edinboro. I attended that 
school's Homecoming on October 5. Harold 
Betters played for the dance, which was 
sponsored by their "Varsity E" club. The 
admission price was $5,00 per couple. Before 
this time, I had barely heard of Harold Bet- 
ters, but apparently he is famous enough to 
command a fairly large fee. Here is an in- 
stance of a campus organization, not the stu- 
dent goi'ernment, sponsoring entertainment at 
a fairly large price of admission. I might 
state that the dance was held in the dining 
hall, and I estimate that perhaps five to six 
hundred people attended. 

Two weeks ago, Gkju Yarixvougb c«vc • 



To the Call Editor. 

I am writing in reference to last Saturday's 
Homecoming dance with its featured enter- 
tainment, the Contrails, and more important- 
ly, the "Brooklyn Bridge." 

I would like to congratulate the student 
body of Clarion State Collese for their ex- 
pressed recognition of excellent entertain- 
ment. The succe.ss of the Homecoming dance, 
and I DO feel it was successful, was due to 
the spontaneous reactirin of ov student body 
to the beat of the "Brooklyn Bridge." 

However, if such a snirit. as wns amp'y 
demonstrated on Saturday, is to continue, we 
must gain more assi.st.nnce from the student 
body. I feel that this support WILL be given 
by the students if groups such as the "Brook- 
lyn Bridge" will be a regular occurrence at 
CSC.'

cast in a discussion as to the meaning and 
content of the production.

Speech Group Takes 
Trip to Washington 

Sigma Alpha Eta, the honorary speech and 
hearing fraternity, is planning a field trip 
to Gallaudet College in Washington, D.C., to 
give interested students additional profession- 
al experience. Gallaudet College offers an 
elementary, high school, and college educa- 
tion for deaf students as well as a graduate 
program for tho^e who teach the deaf. Be- 
cause Gallaudet is the only college for the 
deaf in the United States, its students come 
from all 50 states and from several foreign 
countries. 

The 30 students from Qarion were to leave 
at 11 o'clock last night, and they expect to 
return on Sunday. Their plans include tour- 
ing the school, observing class sessions, and 
seeing the research that is being done in the 
field of audiology at Gallaudet. 

The fraternity, Sigma Alpha Eta, was start- 
ed at Clarion in November of 1964 and is

As I See It . 



By GARY ANDRES 

Tomorrow, for the first time tliis season, 
Clarion yoes on the field as the underdog. 
They will be playing the Indiana team that 
crushed Pldinhoro two weeks ago, 58-0. There 
arc .seven regulars from last year's team 
on both the offensive and defensive units. 
Their are only two sophomores who start 
out of their top 22 men. 

Their basic philosophy of offense is very 
much like the Golden Eagles. They love to 
pressure the opposition into making a mis- 
take; they will seize a fumble, interception, 
or bad punt capitalize on it, and drain the 
opposition's morale. 

They have run on everyone with their op- 
tion — Blucas, often, keeps the ball on a roll 
out. When passing, Blucas likes to hit the 
slot back with a quick pass in the flat. They 
believe in repeating success. If they gain 
good yardage on a certain play, you can look 
for that play again from either side. The 
Big Indians are undefeated in their first five 
encounters in what portends to be one of 
their greatest seasons. 

Blucas, quarterback, a six foot, one inch, 
205 pound junior does everything well; he 
uses his head, arms and powerful frame with 
good results. Draganac, at split end is a 
five foot, seven inch, 180 pound senior with 
good hands, speed, and fine fakes. 

CSC Injured May Return 

Although Jacks had been without the ser- 
vices of defensive end Rick McWilliams, 
guard Joe Lavella, and offensive halfback 
Bob Oberdorf for the last week's game, he 
has high hopes that at least two of them 
will be back in harness for the Indiana tilt. 

Bob Erdeljac will have his work cut out 
for him. Coach Al Jacks, with a full team, 
will be putting his be.st up against Indiana's 
best in years. The Big Indiana's line is bigger 
than Clarion's. Number 87, Smith at wing 
back is six foot, two, 205 pounds and ex- 
perienced. He is a senior who will merit 
watching. Coach Jacks said: "We are being 
hurt most by typical unseasoned sophomore 
players, but we are on the upswing and feel 
we have a good solid squad, especially on 
defense. 

Offensively, the Golden Eagles will have 
to contain them on the outside. 

Erdeljac Ably 
Replaces Alcorn 

Clarion State sophomore Bob Erdeljac, for- 
mer Oakmont High School star gridder, is 
off to a flying start toward filling the quar- 
terback slot vacated by the graduation of 
Jim Alcorn. 

Alcorn's shoes, now of the G. I. variety, 
following a brilliant start with the Wheeling 
Ironmen this season, are not easy to fill. 
However, the five foot, 11 inch, 172 pound 
Oakmont flash, one of Al Jacks' real hope- 
fuls, has already made the NCAA and NAIA 
individual college leaders lists. 

Latest available releases from the two foot- 
ball associations show the speedy youngster 
to be making outstanding headway in passing 
and total offense. 

With the first four 1968 games in the hop- 
per, the Golden Eagle quarterback ranked 
seventh in total offense in the NCAA book, 
being involved in 143 plays for 849 yards. 
Add to that last week's tiff with Edinboro 
and he has 27 more plays and 166 yards 
for a present total of 170 and 1015. The NAIA 
ranked him 24th in individual total offense 
and 21st in individual passing. 

Tagged as a question mark at the begin- 
ning of the season, since he had not been 
tested under fire, Erdeljac has more than 
shown his mettle in the first five encounters. 
His good arm has put him in ninth place 
on the NCAA passing list. In four games 
he had attemtped 110, completed 60 and had 
five intercepted for a .545 percentage and 
798 yards gain. 

Against Edinboro. the speedy quarterback 
completed nine for 19 tosses and 168 yards, 
and accounted for three TD's for an overall 
average to date of .534. 

It seems safe to say that Bob Erdeljac 
is no longer a question mark at Clarion State.

CSC's Jaii Uctkci Hum After Catching An Erdeljac Pass 

CSC Eagles Defeat Edinboro, 
37-13, In Homecoming Game 



The Clarion Golden Eagles were victorious 
in the annual Homecoming game against the 
Highlanders of Edinboro, defeating them 37- 
13 on the arm of Bob Erdeljac and the run- 
ning of Mike Giunta. Erdeljac threw three 
touchdown passes and Giunta ran for 131 
yards and one touchdown. 

In the first quarter the teams traded the 
ball back and forth, Clarion's first touchdown 
came when Frank Sirianni intercepted his 
second pass of the quarter. The interception 
took place on the Edinboro 40-yard line, and 
he returned it to the Edinboro 22. A 15-yard 
penalty against Clarion put the ball back on 
the Edinboro 34. On the first play, Erdeljac 
threw to Jim Becker for 33 yards putting 
the ball on the one. Two plays later Giunta 
put it over for the touchdown. 

In the second quarter, the Golden Eagles 
exploded for three touchdowns in about four 
minutes. The first coming when Clarion drove 
70 yards in five plays. Mike Giunta led this 
drive with a 51-yard run and Bob Erdeljac 
capped the drive with a 19-yard touchdown 
pass to end Larry McNulty. Clarion's second 
touchdown of the quarter came two minutes 
later, when Edinboro punted from their own 
two-yard line on the third down. After the 
short punt, the Golden Eagles took over on 
the Edinboro 17-yard line. Two plays later, 
Erdeljac passed to McNulty for 16 yards 
and a touchdown, his second of the quarter. 
The Golden Eagles drove 60 yards in four 
plays for the third touchdown of the quarter. 
Mike Giunta also helped set up this touch- 
down with a 38-yard run. Erdeljac ended 
this drive when he passed 16 yards to Jim 



Band Prepares for Indiana 

After an active weekend of three perfor- 
mances, the CSC Golden Eagles Marching 
Band is preparing for the half-time show 
of the Indiana-Clarion game. 

This past Saturday, the band performed 
for the dedication of the Waldo S. Tippin 
Gymnasium, led the 15th annual Autumn Leaf 
Festival Parade, and provided music and 
entertainment for the Homecoming game be- 
tween Edinboro and Clarion. 

For this Saturday's game, the band is pre- 
paring a show dealing with popular television 
programs. The first formation will be the 
well-known Mission: Impossible tape record- 
er, featuring spinning wheels that will self- 
destruct to the music of the "Mission: Impo.s- 
sible Theme." Then the band will form a gun 
for the show. Gunsmoke. The third formation 
executed will be the champagne glass re- 
presenting the Lawrence Welk Show, with 
the music of 'Bubbles in the Wine," ar- 
ranged by Mr. B. E. Hardin, a new member 
of the Music Department. The band will exit 
in the form of a jet airplane to the strains 
of "Fly the Friendly Skies with United."

Becker for the touchdown. John Dorish had 
kicked the three preceding extra points, but 
he ran this one over for a two-point conver- 
son. Score at halftime was Clarion 29, Edin- 
boro 0. 

After an uneventful third quarter, Edinboro 
finally made the scoreboard in the fourth 
quarter with 13 points. Their first touchdown 
was scored when they drove 56 yards in 
five plays. The drive was capped by a 44-yard 
touchdown pass from Tom Mackey to Chuck 
Pollick. Edinboro's second score came mid- 
way in the quarter when they drove 64 yards 
in 15 plays. Santillo scored the final High- 
landers' touchdown on a seven-yard run. Ed- 
inboro tried a two-point conversion, but it 
was stopped by an alert Clarion defense, 
which had proven tough all day. The Golden 
Eagles closed out the scoring with 18 se- 
conds left in the game, when Jim Kocan 
replaced Bob Erdeljac at quarterback with 
the ball on the Edinboro 35-yard line. The 
Eagles drove for the touchdown in six plays 
with Kocan throwing for 24 yards. Kocan 
ended the scoring with a five-yard run; after 
the touchdown, Kocan then ran the two-point 
conversion.

The coaching staff of the Golden Eagles 
football team has named FMmer Schuetz as 
player of the week for his performance last 
Saturday in the Homecoming game against 
Edinboro. 

Elmer is a junior linebacker from North 
Catholic High School; he is five feet, 11 inches 
tall and he weighs 197 pounds. One of the 
25 returning lettcrmen from Clarion's 1967 
Western Conierence championship team, El 
mer has proven himself a valuable asset 
to the Eagle defense. 

Coach Al Jacks' comments when citing El- 
mer as r'nyer of the week brought rtut the 
fact that it was a tough decision to make. 
So many of the players played an excellent 
game that it was difficult to choose one man 
who stood out from the rest of the team. 
One thing that was not hard, however, w^s 
deciding that Elmer Schuetz and the rest 
of the Eagle squad played a fine football 
game for the alumni and student body 
against Edinboro. 

Eight Basketball 
Lettcrmen Return 

Practice began on Tuesday for the return- 
ing varsity basketball players, as well as 
many members of last year's freshman team 
and other interested young men. 

This year the basketball team will not be 
a rebuilding team, but one with many sea- 
soned varsity players. Only two key players 
were lost; Jim Alcorn graduated, and Jim 
Carter, who sat out last semester due to 
academic difficulties, is in the Army. 

Coach John Joy has announced that eight 
lettermen will be returning for the 1968-69 
basketball season. They include the team cap- 
tain, Joe Chalmers, Regis Ruane, Joe Polo- 
dak, and the 1967 team's top scorers Dennis 
Luce, with a 16 points per game average; 
Buddy Martin, with a 14-point per game aver- 
age; and George Lawry, who scored an aver- 
age of 9 points per game. 

Rejoining the team after a year's absence 
will be Larry Kubovchick and Bob Fusco, top 
scorers of the 1966 team. Larry, a unanimous 
choice for the 1956-67 Western Conference 
all-star first team, and Bob, CSC's leading 
rebounder and an all-star second team choice, 
were ineligible to play because they had par- 
ticipated in a postseason tournament at the 
end of the 1966-67 season; this is in violation 
of a ruling of both the National Collegiate 
Athletic Association and the Pennsylvania 
State College Conference. However, they 
have been reinstated and will play this year. 

With these eight men as a nucleus, Coach 
Joy, his assistants, Thomas Beck and Stan 
Hallman, and the students of Clarion State 
look ahead to the first game, December 4, 
and to a successful season.

A Letter to the Editor 



A WS Officers Express Views 
On Sign 'Out Procedures; 
Clarion Call Editor Replies 



Editor, The Call: 

In regard to previous articles in the Call 
concerning women's sign-out procedures, we, 
as members of the A.W.S. Council would 
like to express our views. 

We are pleased to see the women of this 
campus talcing .such an active interest in 
their government. There are many regula- 
tions concerning the women which need re- 
evaluation. It is a good thing that the Call 
has brought .such issues to the attention of 
the students, but who did the authors of 
these articles plan to have investigate these 
problems? Could it be they themselves? We 
have not seen any indication of such initia- 
tive. 

The A.W.S. Council has had the sign-out 
procedure under consideration since the be- 
ginning of the semester., We more than realize 
the inadequacies of the present system. We 
felt, however, that proper investigation should 
be conducted by the organization concerned 
with women's residence halls — who ultimately 
will be the ones affected by any change. 

This organization is the Women's Residence 
Board. The WRB consists of the president 
and vice president of each women's residence 
hall. These officers were just recently elected 
in their respective halls and are now function- 
ing as the WRB. AWS Council has advised 
the board that the present system of signing- 
out is ineffective and asked that they investi- 
gate the procedure. Any recommendations 
or proposed changes will be brought before 
all of the women for approval. This is the 
same procedure used last year in lengthening 
hours. 

There is a way to get results from a justi- 
fied complaint. There is a way to bring about 
changes in an out-dated regulation or proced- 
ure. There is a way to have more effective 
representation in student organizations. You, 
as students, have elected people to represent 
you, to get things done for you. These leaders 
are more than willing to help you fight for 
a cause, providing they know what you want. 
Changes don't happen overnight. 

Last year. WRB worked for a whole semes- 
ter changing women's hours. If you're dis- 
satisfied, talk to your representatives and 
give them a chance to work for you. The 
students you elect to officeswant to repre- 
sent your feelings, but it is impossible for 
them to do so when they don't know what, 
or even how, you feel. 

AWS officers ~-^ 
Leslie Hudak, president 
Marg Butler, vice president 
Pat Losik 
Sandra Bordick 
Marsha Kramarik 



The Editor's Reply: 

It is genuinely satisfying to know that steps 
are being taken to change the sign-out regu- 
lations for women students, and we appre- 
ciate the concern that AWS and WRB have 
exhibited in this matter. 

In answer to the charges made against 
the Call, we would like to take this oppor- 
tunity to clarify a few specific and import- 
ant points. The authors did not propose to 
take these issues upon themselves, but rather 
proposed that these issues be brought to the 
attention of the students. 

It is not within our scope to personally 
tackle these problems, but rather to print 
stories and editorials on issues as we see 
them. If any (or part) of our assertions are 
incorrect, any student on this campus has 
the right to challenge us. 

We did not propose a solution to the pro- 
blem nor did we accuse any party of neglect. 
Instead, we strongly pointed out that a 
change is both appropriate and necessary. 

We also had hoped that the students of 
Clarion would realize the problems, and take 
the initiative to seek the proper channels 
for amendment. For this reason, we felt ob- 
ligated to keep the issue alive until some 
action has been started. 

We, therefore, included this topic in our 
opinion poll. Its purpose was to create and 
maintain interest, and not to condemn or 
accuse anyone for not taking immediate ac 
tion. We also realize that change does not 
occur overnight, but a dormant issue never 
receives attention.

Democratic Regime Termed 
^Sick^ by Nixon Supporter 



William Of fit, regional director for United 
Citizens for Nixon-Agnew in Western Pennsyl- 
vania, called the present administration in 
Washington "sick." 

Mr. Offit, speaking at a lecture sponsored 
by Clarion's Young Republicans, cited instan- 
ces of "defacing and disgracing" at Ameri- 
can embassies around the world. He also 
cited problems such as deficit spending, high 
crime rate, and inflation as signs of the 
sickness of the present administration. Mr. 
Offit said that the Democratic nominee Hu- 
bert Humphrey was not chosen in any state 
primary to run for president. 

Mr. Offit went on to say that Richard Nixon 
"understands the forces that threaten world 
peace." He said that Mr. Nixon would use a 
combination of military, economic, and diplo- 
matic pressures to settle the Vietnam war. 



"Mr. Nixon," he said, "will bring peace and 
prosperity to America." 

Concerning economics, Richard Nixon 
would cut Federal spendings and lower the 
cost of living. He would get people off the 
welfare roll and on to the payroll, thus re- 
lieving the over-burdened taxpayer. Mr. Offit 
said that Nixon would give the poor "a help- 
ing hand not a handout." Mr. Nixon has 
proposed tax incentives to private industries 
to develop factories and offices in underde- 
veloped areas. 

Mr. Offit said also that Richard Nixon 
would curb crime and civil disorder by his 
appointments of supreme court Judges and 
of an attorney general. Humphrey was de- 
nounced for his statement in New Orleans 
that if he lived in a ghetto he would be 
a good rioter himself.

OPINION POLL 



Students Voice Opinions 
On Wallace as Candidate 



In an attempt to break away from local 
campus issues, we have concerned ourselves 
in this poll with an item of national import 
— the upcoming elections. The question asked 
this week was: "Do you feel that George 
Wallace has any chance of winning the pre- 
sidency, and if so, why?" These are some 
of the individual responses: 

Carl Gaffron— "I don't think that he does 
have a chance, because he is too much of 
a radical. As the election approaches, people 
will realize that all he expresses is negative 
attitudes. He is against many things but there 
is little upon which he has a positive or 
corrective opinion." 

Carlo Sabato— "No I don't think Wallace 
has a chance to win. But I don't think he 
should be so easily written off. The fact 
that many Democracy-loving Americans 
would support such a man shows political 
unrest that had better be answered by either 
the Republican or Democratic candidate." 

Michael Elliott— "He doesn't stand a 
chance of winning; but then, he is not out 
to win. He is out to throw the election into 
the House of Representatives, where he will 
make a deal with the major candidate to 
give his electoral votes in exchange for either 
a high appointed office, such as Secretary 
of State, or some other office, for certain 
major political concessions." 

Larry Peer— "At first, I did feel Wallace 
had a chance, but he is making too many 
radical moves and is throwing his candidacy 
into Nixon's lap. I feel Nixon has the election 
in his pocket, and has had it there for quite 
some time." 

Willy Sanders— "No, I don't feel this man 
stands a chance. His very presence as a 
third party candidate is indicative of the 
American white society's racist tendencies. 
Nevertheless, he can not win, because within 
this country we have some people who are 
rational and will vote for a more representa- 
tive candidate . . . fire and flame are both 
the same, and so, too, is smoke." 

Nick Rutherford— "People judge the candi- 
dates not so much from what they say, as 
from the overall impression they make. They 
try to imagine the candidates with the res- 
ponsibility of the most powerful man in the 
world. And the closer the election gets, the 
more people feel shivers down their backs 
at the thought of Wallace and the bomb. 
No, we need a cool man as president, and 
besides, an outright anti-intellectual is hard- 
ly going to get much support from intellec- 
tual circles." 

Don Hastings— "No, Wallace doesn't stand 
a chance. Too many people are registered 
Democrats and Republicans; too many be- 
lieve in the two-party system. I don't think 
they would trust a third party yet. " 

When asked if this was the only reason 
he felt Wallace would lose the election, Don 
said this, "No, his personality would pro- 



bably play a greater part in his not being 
elected. He can't take in a wide enough scope 
of people in his policies. Wallace is to the 
conservative what McCarthy was to the liber- 
al. Wallace is al.so similar to McCarthy in 
that he attracts young people. He also sym- 
bolizes the great dissatisfaction that people 
have with the present administration." 

Bill Botti expressed a different A'iew of 
the third party candidate: "Yes, I feel Wal- 
lace could win, since the people in this coun- 
try are tired of the way they are being pushed 
around. Two, I'm tired of the war in Vietnam. 
If Wallace gets in office, he has promised 
we'll come to the peace table. Three, I'm 
sick of people using civil rights as an excuse 
for rioting. Wallace would bring about some 
law and order." 

Bill Maxwell was reported as having said 
he is for Wallace becau.se he is tired of 
our "pussy-footing around" in Vietnam, and 
also feels Wallace would help instill law and 
order. 

Richard Smarick said, "I think that Wal- 
lace is a good thing for politics, because 
all too often the voting populace has only 
two, virtually alike candidates to choose 
from. The reason I think tliis is good this 
year is because George Wallace has much 
more on the ball than the run-of-the-mill pol- 
iticians and 'kingmakers' care to admit. As 
far as Wallace's chances of winning are con- 
cerned, let me say that I am a realist, there- 
fore, I don't believe that he will get more 
than 20 to 25 percent of the popular vote. Un- 
fortunately, I feel that he is going to be an- 
other political scapegoat and martyr, just 
as Barry Goldwater was in 1964. It's a shame, 
but the name of the game is politics." 

We hope that all those who are affected 
by the forthcoming elections— meaning pri- 
marily those voting this November— have 
carefully weighed the abilities and disabilities 
of all the candidates. We also hope that all 
those who are able to vote will do so, thus 
giving our electors a more flattering picture 
of the candidate they are to choose as our 
next President.

Canning Outlines 
New Paths in Music 

Three major changes are occurring as mu- 
sical idiom expands. So said Dr. Thomas 
Canning Wednesday night in the College Cha- 
pel as part of Clarion's Distinguished Scholar 
Series. 

Dr. Canning, who has composed in a va- 
riety of styles, traced the mainstream of 
music from antiquity to the present and point- 
ed out that the tendency toward expansion 
of musical idiom has caused three major 
changes in music. The first occurred when 
the first chromatic notes were introduced 
to modal music; the second occurred about 
1600, when the Florentine Camerata compo- 
sers began to attempt to bring into music 
the expression of the meaning of the text. 
The third change occurred after Richard 
Wagner, with the breakdown of the major 
iXid minor scales. 

Professor Canning, who is composer-in-re- 
sidence at the University of West Virginia, 
chose as his topic "New Paths in Music 
Pointing to the 21st Century." Wednesday 
afternoon he held a workshop for students. 

Illustrating his lectures with musical ex- 
amples via piano, tape recording, slides, and 
a group of student musicians, Profes.sor Can- 
ning illustrated the control of traditional mu- 
sic, and spoke of the breakdown of control 
which occurred prior to the end of each 
of the above eras. He predicted a future 
for music relying heavily on mathematical 
music, electronically devised music and 
"chance music," an idiom in which the per- 
former shares the creative duties with the 
composer. 

Dr. Canning indicated that dissonance, ton- 
al centers and methods of composition are 
three major elements of control in music 
which, when one or more gets out of control, 
need to be brought back into control in order 
to produce great music in any idiom. 

Finally, he prophesied that in the 21st cen- 
tury, electronic music, 12-tone music, chance 
music and popular music would consolidate 
into one form.

Aippointed Committee 
Befines Purposes, Goals 

An organizational meeting of the Clarion 
Student Association Constitutional Committee 
was held Monday in Peirce Center. The com- 
mittee is composed of three student senators 
and the six members of the executive council 
of the Intercollegiate Conference on Govern- 
ment, all of whom arc appointed by the 
Student Senate. 

The main purpose of Monday's meeting 
was to define the purpo.ses and goals of the 
committee in writing a new student constitu- 
tion. Other matters discus.sed at the meeting 
were the proposal to hire a secretary to 
record the minutes of the meetings. It would 
lessen the confusion and free committee 
members so that they could devote their 
attention to the drafting of a new constitution. 
Discussion of the topic was deferred until 
additional information could be obtained. 

An election for parliamentarian was held 
and Owen Winters was unanimously elected. 
It was also decided that an explanation be 
prepared to support the adoption of each 
point of the proposed constitution; this ex- 
planation would give detailed rea.sons for the 
committee's actions in drafting each particu- 
lar article. A proposal was raised to have 
a committee representative contact a lawyer 
regarding the incorporation papers of the 
Clarion Student Association so that all re- 
strictions may be clearly understood. Action 
was delayed until a future meeting. 

It was approved that representatives from 
the committee be sent to the faculty senate 
meetings reviewing student rights and re- 
sponsiblities. This action was taken in order 
to ascertain the purpose of these faculty sen- 
ate meetings and their possible effect on the 
Constitutional Committee. 

The next meeting will be held at 7 p.m. 
Monday in Room 223 of Peirce Center. All 
students are urged to attend and take an 
interest in the drafting of their new consti- 
tution. 

New Numbering System 
To Be in Operation 
Before Second Semester 

Dr. Dana Still, assistant dean of academic 
affairs, has requested that all .students obtain 
a social security number by pre- registration 
for the spring semester. 

Clarion State College in its process of grow- 
ing and expanding has outgrown its present 
numbering system. The student population 
has now surpassed the five-digit system in- 
troduced five years ago. 

The present enrollment, those graduated, 
and those who have never graduated are 
included in this system. The system is divided 
so as to enable the alphabetizing that is nec- 
essary for filing. Because of certain nation- 
alities and ethnic groups, numbers set aside 
for a particular letter are rapidly being de- 
pleted. Another flaw that must be remedied 
is the duplicating of numbers that confuses 
the filing system. For these reasons, it is 
necessary to move over to a more flexible 
system. 

The administration plans on initiating a 
new system involving the use of social secur- 
ity numbers. There are numerous advantages 
of using this system. The social security num- 
ber is something every student has or will 
have to have at some time. The general 
tendency today in all personal accounting is 
to use the social security number. 

For example, students who have graduated 
with a degree in teaching have been certified 
from the Department of Public Instruction. 
This certification is coded with the social se- 
curity number. The college payroll which 
is handled by data processing in Harrisburg 
uses social security numbers. The tendency 
is for all state agencies to use social security 
numbers in their numbering systems. With 
the use of social security numbers, coding 
operations tend to become universal in scope. 
It will also provide a greater breadth for 
numbering. 

The administration would like to begin op- 
erating under the new system as soon as 
possible. During pre-registration for tlie 
Spring semester, a space will be provided 
for both the present student number and 
also the social security number. If you do 
not have a social security number as of now, 
it is suggested that you obtain one as soon 
as possible.

THE CALL -- Clarion State College, Clarion, Pennsylvania 



Friday, October 25, 1068 



Editorially 
Speaking 



Do CSC Studetits Really 
Want More Social Activities? 



It was discovered this past week- 
end that the students of Clarion would 
rather sit in the dorm or go home, 
rather than attend a social activity. 
There were two activities planned, a 
dance Friday night and a concert Sat- 
urday night; instead of attending, many 
students chose to sit in the dorm and 
do nothing. 

These same students, who do nqt 
attend any social functions, are the 
very ones who complain about a lack 
of social activities. They are the first 
to blame the administration, they are 
the first to criticize the activities that 
arc planned, and they are the first to 
condemn anything new that is tried. 
These students needed a scapegoat, 
and they found it in the administration. 
It is always easier to place the blame 
on someone or something else rather 
than place the blame where it belongs. 
Students of Clarion examine your- 
selves and see who really is to blame. 

If this is any indication o£ the type 
of citizens you will become, our coun- 
try is in grave danger. The very stu- 
dents who feel they do not need to 
support school and student-sponsored 
activities will be the very ones who 
will not vote at election time. They 
wil be the ones to feel that one vote, 
their vote, will not be of much impor- 
tance, but they will be the first to com- 
plain if the candidate of theiiv.«teoice 
is not elected. They will be -the ones 
to complain about governmental poli- 
cies, but they will only coniplain; they 
will do nothing about it. TTiese same 
people will always be looking for a 
scdpcgoat, and they will always be 
blaming the wrong person or persons. 



Unrest: A Promising Sign 



The atmosphere of Clarion has 
changed in the last few weeks, and 
this isn't a reference to the approach- 
ing cold weather. Rather, we mean 
to bring to your attention the increased 
concern and involvement of Clarion 
students. 

We see this unrest as a promising 
sign. It is an indication that dissatis- 
faction exists, but, more important, it 
is a sign that the students realize that 
soniethihg can be done to improve the 
situation here, and they are beginning 
to put forth some initiative toward ac- 
complishing this improverpent. One 
must also consider that the only al- 
ternative to unrest is rest, and nothing 
has ever been accomplished by resting 
on one's laurels, or l^ck of laurels, as 
the case may be. Uniest is movement, 
rest — stagnation. f 

A headline in the Call last week 
declared "Law and Order" rf^Code word 
for lacism. We see it as a code word 
for more than that. It can be a handy 
camouflage for a rigid and uncompro- 
mising authoritarian system; or it can 
be a cover for a student body that 
doesn't care enough to question the 
law or disrupt the order. Those who 
advocate strict adherence to law and 
order may actually be advocating the 
muffling of your voices. 

It is within the students' rights as 
American citizens to petition, demon- 
strate, paint signs and challenge of- 
ficials. According to one of the Presi- 
dential candidates "these precious 
rights are part of the right to dissent," 
and, even though dissent is "never a 
pleasant experience for those toward 
whom the dissent is directed," it, nev- 
ertheless, is something which must be 
preserved and protected as an integral 
part of our free society. 

However, as is always the case 
with rights, there are responsibilM^s 
v.hich accomnany them. Sometimes 
students, carried away with great en- 
thusiasm, defending, perhaps for the 



first time, rights which they feel they 
deserve, forget about the other side of 
t^e coin. It is important, if they hope 
-tj accomphsh anything, that students 
realize they must respect in order to 
be respected. Authorities are willing 
to listen to a carefully thought-out, 
it^asonable complaint, but rarely have 
time to hearing rounded criticism. 

f On the other hand, the people to 
whom students' complaints are direct- 
ed should be prepared to treat them 
as adults. A recent article in Ameri- 
can School and University was direct- 
ed to the faculty of a school which was 
anticipating trouble. The article ad- 
vocated the use of "electronic security 
devices, closed-circuit television sur- 
veillance cameras, smoke and fire de- 
tjfection systems, foolproof locks and 
padlocks. " It is a sad thing when the 
students of a school cannot be treated 
as human beings. 

It is regretful when the communi- 
cation between the administration and 
students deteriorate to the point where 
they must both be on the defensive. 
In our effort to improve situations at 
our school, let us not become involved 
in such antics. An atmosphere of 
mutual trust and respect is necessary 
in order that we may work together 
to bring about improvements which 
will benefit all, and which will make 
us proud to have been a part of the 
developing process.

They will never blame the right per- 
sons, themselves. 

Granted, it is easier to complain 
about a lack of social activities than to 
attend the ones scheduled. It is easier 
to sit in your rooms and vegetate. If 
activities were well-attended, and if 
there were activities enough to please 
everyone on campus, what would you 
have to complain about? You would 
have to sit down and actually think 
about something new to become dis- 
satisfied with. Of course, that would 
require time and effort, too much to be 
expected from the "typical" Clarion 
student. Just as supporting a social 
activity is too much to be expected 
from the "typical" Clarion student. 

Yes, it is easier to sit in the dorm 
or go home on weekends than support 
the respective activities. The money 
you spend for a ride home or the mon- 
ey you spend for food and beverages 
could be spent on the purchase of a 
ticket for a group supported dance. 
How great do you, the students, think 
you are? Is it below your dignity to 
be seen at a dance with a group of 
friends? If it is, the students of Clar- 
ion have suddenly developed a sophis- 
tication that has never been noticed 
before on campus. 

If you, the students of Clarion, 
are "down," it is your fault and yours 
alone. If you are not satisfied with 
the situation as it now stands, face up 
to it and accept the blame because it 
is your fault. You, the students of 
Clarion, are your own scapegoats.

Letters to The Editor 



Psychedelic Music vs. Soul Referee Decision Defended 



On Friday, October 11, and Saturday, Octo- 
ber 12, tlie true colors of thf student body 
of Clarion came through. We're sure the New 
Hudson Exit and the McCoys felt right at 
home witli the warm reception given to them. 
After all, they were probably honored when 
you, the students, hounded thejn to play your 

old favorite soul sounds. 

t 

Just as you wouldn't ask Johnny Unitas 
or Bart Starr to play polo, you don't ask 
a psychedelic group to play soul!!! Wake 
up students and don't stay in your rut. 

How many times have you said that your 
parents are still living in the Dark Ages? 
You're the ones that aren't progressing. A 
new generation gap is being formed right 
here in Clarion. Closed minds seem to be the 
fad and stale thoughts dominate. We see mini- 
skirts, mustaches, beards an^ peace signs 
throughout the campus, but listening to the 
musical notes of soul continues. 

You, the students are selfish and can only 
think one-sided. People must learn to be will- 
ing to pccept changes. Just because you aren't 
on the receiving end doesn't make the new 
ideas unacceptable. Soul music can't be torn 
down completely but living in a soul shelter 
can. The world around you is changing and 
is not going to stop and wait for the student 
body of Clarion to see the light. 

You say you're the majority but that ma- 
jority turns to the minority in the rest of 
our world!! "England swings like a pendu- 
lum do," but, just as the peodulum in Peirce 
Science Center stands still, so does our 
student body. 

THOSE WHO HAVE SEEN THE LIGHT 



Help Rebuild Your Campus 

The organizational meeting of the Clarion 
Students' Association constitutional commit- 
tee was held last Monday evening before 
an overflow crowd of one interested student 
and one faculty member. When one considers 
the recent uproar caused by supposed ad- 
ministrative intervention in student social ac- 
tivities, the attendance at this meeting is 
truly ironical. 

The encouraging upsurge in student con- 
cern and participation, which was so evident 
in the week prior to Homecoming, .seems 
to have suddenly reversed itself and setUed 
back into the complacency for which this 
campus is so well noted. 

Sadly enough, the majority of students 
seem more adept at criticizing the efforts 
of others than in putting forth any effort 
to bring about the changes which everyone 
so strongly demands, but are so unwilling 
to work for. 

Immediately after Clarion's victory in the 
state championship football game two years 
ago, petitions were spread requesting early 
dismissal with much success. This is a fine 
example of the advantages of a student cam- 
paign to alter a situation. Surely the creation 
of a new constitution, representative of the 
desires of the student body, will be more 
advantageous than a day's extension of va- 
cation. > 

Where are all those "concerned" students 
who are so free with their criticism after 
all the work has been completed by others? 

The basis of all .student government is the 
constitution, and it is through the power of 
this document that reforms must be carried 
out. In other words, start at the bottom and 
rebuild this campus into a place to be proud 
of. Attend this IMondays committee meeting 
at 7 p m. in Room 223 of Peirce Hall, and 
have a voice in your future. 

Ken Kalmar 



We arc writing this letter in reaction to 
a recent meeting of the Clarion Intramural 
Board. At this meeting, a protest was pre 
sented concerning the referee's decision on 
several crucial plays that occurred durin;' 
an intramural game between the Alpha Gam- 
ma Phis and the Sigma Tau Gammas. The 
Gammas were victorious over the Sig Thus. 

The protest was based upon the assumption 
that if these plays had been called differ- 
ently, the outcome of the game would have 
been different. In fact, this same protest 
could be presented in every disputed call 
made tliis season in professional and college 
football. I am sure that if Al Jacks could re- 
play the Indiana game on the grounds that the 
referees missed an off-side penalty, he would, 
but realistically, he can't. The best he can 
get is an apology from Indiana's coach. 

Being a referee in an intramural game 
is not an easy position, and I am sure that 
everyone playing the game realizes this and 
sympathizes with referees. But as soon as 
a call is made both teams expect these in- 
evperienced students to act as seasoned N.F.- 
L. officials. Usually in games such as these, 
the players spot infractions even Pete Royelle 
could not pick out. 

If we s«art playing over games on the 
grounds that the referees are missing calls 
and being indecisive, Mr. Nanz had better 
revise his intramural schedule to last until 
late July. 

Each intramural team is going to play 
to win every game, which is in the great 
spirit of competition. Whether the outcome 
is a win or a loss, the game is over when 
the whistle blows. The competition should 
end there and not be dragged into discussion 
groups for futher life.

Sign Out System Blasted 

At the risk of beating this issue to death, 
I would like to add my voice in protest 
against the present sign-out system for wo- 
men. Those who defend this system say it 
is necessary so the students may be contacted 
in an emergency. This is nonsense. If this 
were the only purpo.se of the system, what 
difference would it make when we left, how 
we left and who we left with? If this is 
the only purpose why don't boys have to 
sign-out, or isn't it necessary to contact them 
in case of emergency? 

The sy.stem is bad enough but the hypo- 
crisy surrounding it is worse. Most deans, 
housemothers and .students know that the real 
purpose of the .system is to maintain the 
"innocence" of the women. Who are they 
kidding?

rion State on Thursday, October 31, in the 
north balcony of Tippin Gymnasium. 

Congressman Saylor, a graduate of Mer- 
cersburg Academy, Franklin & Marshall Col- 
lege, and Dickinson Law School, was first 
elected in a special election in 1949 and has 
been re-elected every two years since. He 
ranks No. 10 in seniority on the Republican 
side and No, 60 in the overall House member- 
ship of 435. Representative Saylor is the rank- 
ing member of the House Interior and Insular 
Affairs Committee, and is a member of the 
House Veterans Affairs Committee. 

Some of the stands taken by Congressman 
Saylor include: opposition to gun registration; 
favoring tax incentives to businesses to aid 
industrial decentralization and slum rebuild- 



ing; favoring reviews of welfare programs, 
federal aid to education programs, and the 
United States foreign aid and trade policies; 
sponsoring bills to check Supreme Court po- 
wer; favoring mandatory retirement of all 
federal elected and appointed officials at age 
70; and favoring the lifting of present restric- 
tions on the military if a negotiated settle- 
ment cannot be reached in Vietnam. He also 
sponsored the controversial Scenic Rivers Act 
which includes the Clarion and Allegheny 
rivers. 

Congressman Saylor, on campus under the 
sponsorship of the Clarion State College Young 
Republicans, will speak on the following is- 
sues: the Clarion River issue; conservation, 
law and order, his record in Congress, and 
his candidacy for re-election. 

Everyone is cordially invited to attend and 
to raise questions. 



President Gemmell Attends 
r- Conference in Hershey, Penna. 



Dr. James Gemmell, CSC president, attend- 
ed a conference in Hershey on Monday. The 
meeting was sponsored by the Pennsylvania 
Association of Colleges and Universities (PA- 
CU). 

At this convention. President Gemmell was 
a member of a panel which discussed the 
topic "New Concepts of Student, Faculty, 
and Administrative Cooperation." President 
Gemmell delivered a message on formulating 
long-range policies for a college or univer- 
sity, which developed into a worthwhile dis- 
cussion among the hundred college presidents 
that attended the convention. 

President Gemmell opened his remarks by 
stating that "college presidents spend too 
much time cleaning up the messes of the mo- 
ment to be very precise about the future." 
He then pointed out that part of the difficulty 
occurs because many of the presidents were 
appointed to their jobs with only the "vaguest 
kind of preparation." 

The president then offered a suggestion for 
dispelling this vagueness by proposing that 
presidents should seek "more cooperation 



among students, faculty, and administra- 
tion." But he also pointed out that "unless 
the financial cothrol behind the college is 
responsive to such cooperation very little will 
be accomplished." 

Further suggestions included a plea for 
better organizational mechanisms and for 
better ways to involve trustees in matters 
of student concern. 

President Gemmell urged that students be 
included in the technical aspects of planning 
and in consultative roles. A strong point for 
this argument was a suggestion to give stu- 
dents academic credit and to make institu- 
tional resources available to the students for 
participation in policy making. These two 
suggestions were well received by the pre- 
sidents, and a few stated that application 
of this idea at colleges could be effective. 

A remark of President Gemmell's which 
summed up his talk was: "The fundamental 
need is better communication, and communi- 
cation to me means candid answers to honest 
questions." 



Romoser^ Hill 
Lead Workshop 



The ability of teachers to diagnose learning 
deiiciencies, to prescribe strategies of in- 
struction that are consistent with the indi- 
vidual student's style of learning, and to eval- 
uate the effects of the strategies of instruc- 
tion — these are ideas being stressed by the 
directors of the college's Institute for Advan- 
ced Study for Teachers of Disadvantaged 
Youth. 

These ideas were explained this week in 
a one-day workshop in individualizing instruc- 
tion which was conducted by Dr. RicHard 
Romoser and Dr. Gene Hill for the Mercer 
County Principals' Association. Twenty-five 
principals, superintendents, and curriculum 
directors attended the workshop held at Mi- 
lan's Restaurant south of Mercer. Dr. Romo- 
ser is director and Dr. Hill is associate di- 
rector of the institute which is sponsored 
jointly by Clarion State College and the U.S. 
Office of Education under the provisions of 
Title XI of the National Defense Education 
Act. 

The purpose of the workshop was to illus- 
trate how a teacher would go about using 
an individualized approach in his classroom. 
To illustrate the points to be made, the ad- 
ministrators were asked to bring a news 
item, text book, and reference source related 
to Vietnam and Southeast Asia. These mater- 
ials were then used to show how a teacher 
could begin with current events and move 
into a formal social studies program while 
meeting individual needs of the students in 
the class. The administrators went through 
the process of gathering facts, grouping them 
in similar categories, and showing how these 
groupings were related. As the various steps 
were carried out, the theories of application 
in the classroom were discussed. 



This method leads a teacher to develop 
notions of individualized instmction in tho 
classroom as well as a research approach 
to the instructional problems of his students.

Geography Club A Prize Winner from Venango 



New on Campus 




The Clarion Geographical Society is a new 
organization on campus this year. Although 
it was started this past spring, it did not 
become a part of the campus organizations 
until this faU. At the first meeting on Sep- 
tember 23, officers were elected. They are: 
Gloria Kerestan, president; Eugene Krueger, 
vice president; Melody Laverick, secretary; 
and Pam Shaw, treasurer. 

The Society hopes to facilitate geographical 
interest among students and faculty. Anyone 
interested in attending these meetings or be- 
coming a member will be welcome. To be- 
come a member, you need not be a geography 
student or a part of the geography faculty; 
the only requirement for an associate mem- 
bership, one who does not vote, is an interest 
in the field of geography. 

Currently, the Society is making plans to 
present membership cards to the members, 
both associate and full members. If you wish 
to join, the meetings are listed in the daily 
bulletins. 

The aarion Geographical Society is re- 
sponsible for obtaining guest speakers con- 
cerned with the field of geography. Lectures 
by the geography faculty at Clarion are also 
planned. 

In the near future, the Society hopes to be- 
come associated with the honorary geogra- 
phical fraternity, Gamma Theta Upsilon, 
which has its national headquarters in Qa- 
rion. Lester Oakes, a faculty member here 
at Clarion, is the secretary qt this national 
honorary fraternity. 

The organization has many plans for the 
future and it hopes to attract more mem- 
bers and interested people. The next meeting 
is October 30; it will include the presentation 
of slides by Miss Margaret Wiant. 











Victory Dance at Venango 
To most of the 45 couples attending, the 
Homecoming Dance on Saturday, October 12, 
was, the end to a perfect day. Eariier. Cla- 
rion had won the Homecoming game, and 
■yenango had won a trophy for its float. 

The dance, held at the Holiday Inn, fea- 
tured Cootie Harris and his combo Punch 
and coolcies were* served. The room and tab- 
les were decorated in an autumn motif. 

Guests were Mr. and Mrs, Garrison Mc- 
Caslin of the faculty and the sophomore 
Homecoming attendant, Rosie Downs, and 
her escort, George Vano. 

The fall semi-formal was sponsored by the 
social committee under the chairmanship of 
Tim Dunkle. The next semi-formal will be 
held in December. 



Venango Captured First 

Clarion's annual Autumn Leaf Festival par- 
ade on October 12 was the scene of a victory 
for Venango Campus. In accordance with 
the theme, "Keep America Beautiful," Ven- 
ango entered a float entitled "Stomp Out 
Litterbugs." 

The float was sponsored by Venango Cam- 



pus Student Senate. Tbe chairman of the toat 
committee was Deb Michaels.

Melress Heads 
Shawnee Tribe 
Research Project 

In the depths of Egbert Hall, a little-known 
but fascinating project is being carried on. 
This work is being done by James Metress, 
associate professor of anthropology, and his 
two laboratory assistants, Andy Conway of 
St. Marys and Roxanne Grasso of Norwin. 

They are attempting to reconstruct and 
analyze the skeletons of 580 members of a 
17th century Shawnee Indian village from 
the Buffalo site on the Kanawha River in 
West Virginia. "The sk'^et6fi§WMfe Sfent to 
Clarion by the Archaeological Division of the 
West Virginia Geogical Survey to be analyzed 
to determine the physical type, the sex, and - 
evidence of diseases. 

The villagers were not particularly robust, 
possible evidences of tuberculosis, anemia, 
syphilis, and arthritis have been found jn 
the bones. The genetic traits of the villns- 
will be compared with other villages for biolo- 
gical relationship. The average height for 
males was 5 foot 4 inches to 5 foot 6 inches 
and that of the females was 5 foot to 5 
foot 2 inches. An analysis of the teeth reveals 
poor dental healUi; every adult had an aver- 
age of six cavities and had lost four teeth; 
all teeth had disappeared in those individual's 
over 50 years of age. 

Paget's Disease Found ■'"■ 

One of the Indians may have had Paget's 
disease, a rare malady which leaves the vic- 
tim with heavy, very thick, and twisted 
bones. There have only been three or four 
recorded cases in the entire world. Other 
evidence of infectious disease had been isola- 
ted and the etilolgy of specific pathology 
is under analysis. 

Most of the adult inhabitants died between 
30 and 40 years of age, although there was 
also an extremely high infant mortality rate. 

The findings of this research work, in ad- 
dition to the information collected about the 
animal bones from the site, which are being 
studied by the Carnegie Museum, and the 
report on the artifacts of the group by the 
West Virginia Archaeological Survey, will be 
compared to similar sites from the same 
time period in the midwest. The results of 
Mr. Metress' work will probably be pub- 
lished as "The Osteobiography of a Shawnee 

Village." 

The Clarion laboratory of bioanthropology 
plans to bring in more material from Penn- 
sylvania and New York; it is equipped to 
handle skeletal analysis as efficiently and 
as quickly as any lab in the Eastern United 
States, and is one of a small number of 
places in the nation that do large scale skele- 
tal analysis. 

The Village Itself 

The village in which this particular Shaw- 
nee tribe lived was a settled one; they hunted, 
fished, grew crops, and engaged in tribal 
warfare. A large, oval, half-mile-long stock- 
ade surrounded all the main village. In the 
center was a large ceremonial plaza, around 
which clan lodges were located. These in 
turn were enclosed by three concentric rows 
of closely-spaced log houses with thatched 
roofs. 

Dog skeletons represent the only animals 
these people domesticated. An abundance of 
fish bones and clam shells, nut shells and 
charred corn cobs give clues to the foods 
the tribe consumed. Flint, wood, sandstone, 
mussel shells, and bones were utilized in 
the construction of tools and weapons. Pot- 
tery was used in making pipes, figurines, 
cooking pots, and many other vessels. 

Due to attacks by the League of Iroquois, 
Indians, the coming of the European settlers, 
and diseases carried by the white man, the 
tribe was forced westward into Ohio and 



Montgomery Hall Activities 

The House Council's idea of a $1 dorm 
fee was accepted by most of the residents; 
yet many questioned the use of the money. 
To clear any doubts you may have concern- 
ing the use of the money collected: 

1. A Halloween party is being planned for 
the residents. 

2. Food will be provided! 

3. The money will cover costs of the dorm 
Christmas party and Christmas decorations. 

4. The cost of any dorm dances held during 
the year in the cafeteria will be covered. 

5. Expenses for any Rec Room supplies 
(ping-pong balls, darts, etc.) will be paid 
from this fund. 



Members of the House Council are: Harry 
Hont, chairman; Lynn Shuler, secretary; 
Claudia Kramer, Andrea Accardi, Judy Wil- 
son, Harry Buhay, John Shaffer, and Ted 
Pappas. 

Members of the Referral Board are: Ken 
King, chairman; Rosie Wolf, secretary; Joet- 
ta Satkovich, Barbara Winkler, Karen Mueh- 
leisen. Dale Gliptis, Don Stemmler, and Brian 
Musselman. 

During the warm nights of early fall, the 
students at Venango Campus developed a new 
pastime— dancing in the parking lot. C|ld 
weather has ended this activity, but with 
the snow coming, maybe a new pastim^ will 
be found. Snow sculpturing classes?

Do CSC Studeiits Really 
Want More Social Activities? 



It was discovered this past week- 
end that the students of Clarion would 
rather sit in the dorm or go home, 
rather than attend a social activity. 
There were two activities planned, a 
dance Friday night and a concert Sat- 
urday night; instead of attending, many 
students chose to sit in the dorm and 
do nothing. 

These same students, who do n(^t 
attend any social functions, are the 
very ones who complain about a lack 
of social activities. They are the first 
to blame the administration, they are 
the first to criticize the activities that 
are {)lanned, and they are the first to 
condemn anything new that is tried. 
These students needed a scapegoat, 
and they found it in the administration. 
It is always easier to place the blame 
on .'^omcone or something else rather 
than place the blame wheie it belongs. 
Students of Clarion examine your- 
selves and see who really is to blame. 

If this is any indication of the type 
of citizens you will become, our coun- 
try is in grave danger. The very stu- 
dents who feel they do not need to 
support school and student-sponsored 
activities will be the very ones who 
will not vote at election time. They 
wil be the ones to feel that one vote, 
their vote, will not be of much impor- 
tance, but they will be the first to com- 
plain if the candidate of ttierr'.«to»ice 
is not elected. They will be .the ones 
to complain about governmental poli- 
cies, but they will only complain; they 
will do nothing about it. These same 
people will always be looking for a 
scdpegoat, and they will always be 
blaming the wrong person or pprsons. 



They will never blame the right per- 
spns, themselves. 

Granted, it is easier to complain 
about a lack of social activities than to 
attend the ones scheduled. It is easier 
to sit in your rooms and vegetate. If 
activities were well-attended, and if 
there were activities enough to please 
everyone on campus, what would you 
have to complain about? You would 
have to sit down and actually think 
about something new to become dis- 
satisfied with. Of course, that would 
require time and effort, too much to be 
expected from the "typical" Clarion 
student. Just as supporting a social 
activity is too much to be expected 
from the "typical" Clarion student. 

Yes, it is easier to sit in the dorm 
or go home on weekends than support 
the respective activities. The money 
you spend for a ride home or the mon- 
ey you spend for food and beverages 
could be spent on the purchase of a 
ticket for a group supported dance. 
How great do you, the students, think 
you are? Is it below your dignity to 
be seen at a dance with a group of 
friends? If it is, the students of Clar- 
ion have suddenly developed a sophis- 
tication that has never been noticed 
before on campus. 

If you, the students of Clarion, 
are "down," it is your fault and yours 
alone. If you are not satisfied with 
the situation as it now stands, face up 
to it and accept the blame because it 
is your fault. You, the students of 
Clarion, are your own scapegoats. 

— S.M.D. 



Unrest: A Promising Sign 



The atmosphere of Clarion has 
changed in the last few weeks, and 
this isn't a reference to the approach- 
ing cold weather. Rather, we mean 
to bring to your attention the increased 
concern and involvement of Claiion 
students. 

We see this unrest as a promising 
sign. It is an indication that dissatii^- 
faction exists, but, more important, it 
in a sign that the students realize that 
soniethihg can be done to improve the 
situation here, and they are beginning 
to put forth some initiative toward ac- 
complishing this improvement. One 
must also consider that the only al- 
ternative to unrest is rest, and nothing 
has ever been accomplished Ijy resting 
on one's laurels, or l^ck of laurels, as 
tile ca.se may be. Uniest is movement, 
rest—stagnation. f 

A headline in the Call Isjst week 
declared "Law and Order" a'^'dode word 
for racism. We see it as a code word 
for more than that. It can be a handy 
camouflage for a rigid and uncompro- 
mising authoritarian system; or it can 
be a cover for a student body that 
doesn't care enough to question the 
Inw or disrupt the order. Those who 
advocate strict adherence to law and 
order may actually be advocating the 
muffling of your voices. 

It is within the students' rights as 
American citizens to petition, demon- 
strate, paint signs and challenge of- 
ficials. According to one of the Presi- 
dential candidates "these precious 
rights are part of the right to dissent," 
and, even though dissent is "never a 
pleasant experience for those toward 
whom the dissent is directed," it, nev- 
ertheless, is something which must be 
preserved and protected as an integral 
part of our free .society. 

However, as is always the case 
with rights, there are responsibil^ps 
which accomnany them. Sometimes 
students, carried away with great en- 
thusiasm, defending, perhaps for the 



first time, rights which they feel they 
deserve, forget about the other side of 
t^e coin. It is important, if they hope 
U| accomplish anything, that students 
realize they must respect in order to 
be respected. Authorities are willing 
to listen to a carefully thought-out, 
i*asonable complaint, but rarely have 
time to hearing rounded criticism. 

■>% On the other hand, the people to 
Whom students' complaints are direct- 
ed should be prepared to treat them 
as adults. A recent article in Ameri- 
can School and University was direct- 
ed to the faculty of a school which was 
anticipating trouble. The article ad- 
vocated the use of "electronic security 
devices, closed-circuit television sur- 
veillance cameras, smoke and fire de- 
tection systems, foolproof locks and 
iradlocks." It is a sad thing when the 
students of a school cannot be treated 
as human beings. 

It is regretful when the communi- 
cation between the administration and 
students deteriorate to the point where 
they must both be on the defensive. 
In our effort to improve situations at 
our school, let us not become involved 
in such antics. An atmosphere of 
mutual trust and respect is necessary 
in order that we may work together 
to bring about improvements which 
will benefit all, and which will make 
us proud to have been a part of the 
developing process.

Letters to The Editor 



Psychedelic Music vs. Soul Referee Decision Defended 



On Friday, October 11, and Saturday, Octo- 
ber 12, the true colors of thf student body 
of Clarion came through. We're sure the New 
Hudson Exit and the McCoys felt right at 
home with the warm reception given to them. 
After all, they were probably honored when 
you, the students, hounded thefei to play your 
old favorite soul sounds. 

Just as you wouldn't ask Johnny Unitas 
or Bart Starr to play polo, you don't ask 
a psychedelic group to play soul!!! Wake 
up students and don't stay in your rut. 

How many times have you said that your 
parents are still living in the Dark Ages? 
You're the ones that aren't progressing. A 
new generation gap is being formed right 
here in Clarion. Closed minds seem to be the 

y 

fad and stale thoughts dominate. We see mini- 
skirts, mustaches, beards an^ peace signs 
throughout the campus, but listening to the 
musical notes of soul continues. 

You, the students are selfish and can only 
think one-sided. People must learn to be will- 
ing to pccept cbonges. Just because you aren't 
on the receiving end doesn't make the new 
ideas unacceptable. Soul music can't be torn 
down completely but living in a soul shelter 
can. The world around you is changing and 
is not going to stop and wait for the student 
body of Clarion to see the light. 

Y^ou say you're the majority but that ma- 
jority turns to the minority in the rest of 
our world!! "England swings like a pendu- 
lum do," but, just as the pendulum in Peirce 
Science Center stands still, so does our 
student body. 

THOSE WHO HAVE SEEN THE UGHT 



Help Rebuild Your Campus 

The organizational meeting of the Clarion 
Students' Association constitutional commit- 
tee was held last IVTonday evening before 
an overflow crowd of one interested student 
and one faculty member. When one considers 
the recent uproar caused by supposed ad- 
ministrative intervention in student social ac- 
tivities, the attendance at this meeting is 
truly ironical. 

The encouraging upsurge in student con- 
cern and participation, which was so evident 
in the week prior to Homecoming, seems 
to have suddenly reversed itself and settled 
back into the complacency for which this 
campus is so well noted. 

Sadly enough, the majority of students 
seem more adept at criticizing the efforts 
of others than in putting forth any effort 
to bring about the changes which everyone 
so strongly demands, but are so unwilling 
to work for. 

Immediately after Clarion's victory in the 
state championship football game two years 
ago, petitions were spread requesting early 
dismissal with much success. This is a fine 
example of the advantages of a student cam 
paign to alter a situation. Surely the creation 
of a new constitution, representative of the 
desires of the student body, will be more 
advantageous than a day's extension of va- 
cation. ♦ 

Where are all those "concerned" students 
who are so free with their criticism after 
all the work has been completed by others? 

The basis of all student government is the 
constitution, and it is Uirough the power of 
this document that reforms must be carried 
out. In other words, start at the bottom and 
rebuild this campus into a place to be proud 
of. Attend this Monday's committee meeting 
at 7 p.m. in Room 223 of Peirce Hall, and 
have a voice in your future. 

Ken Kalmar 



We are writing this letter in reaction to 
a recent meeting of the Clarion Intramural 
Board. At this meeting, a protest was pre- 
sented concerning the referee's decision on 
several crucial plays tliat occurred durin^; 
an intramural game between the Alpha Gam- 
ma Phis and the Sigma Tau Gammas. The 
Gammas were victorious over the Sig Taus. 

The protest was based upon the assumption 
that if these plays had been called differ- 
ently, the outcome of the game would have 
been different. In fact, this same protest 
could be presented in every disputed call 
made this season in professional and college 
football. I am sure that if Al Jacks could re- 
play the Indiana game on the grounds that the 
referees missed an off-side penalty, he would, 
but realistically, he can't. The best he can 
get is an apology from Indiana's coach. 

Being a referee in an intramural game 
is not an easy position, and I am sure that 
everyone playing the game realizes this and 
sympathizes with referees. But as soon as 
a call is made both teams expect these in- 
evperienced students to act as seasoned N.F.- 
L. officials. Usually in games such as these, 
the players spot infractions even Pete Royelle 
could not pick out. 

If we start playing over games on the 
grounds that the referees are missing calls 
and being indecisive, Mr. Nanz had better 
revise his intramural schedule to last until 
'ate July. 

Each intramural team is going to play 
to win every game, which is in the great 
spirit of competition. Whether the outcome 
is a win or a loss, the game is over when 
the whistle blows. The competition should 
end there and not be dragged into discussion 
groups for futher life.

Sign Out System Blasted 

At the risk of beating this issue to death, 
I would like to add my voice in protest 
against the present sign-out system for wo- 
men. Those who defend this system say it 
is necessary so the students may be contacted 
in an emergency. This is nonsense. If this 
were the only purpose of the system, what 
difference would it make when we left, how 
we left and who we left with? If this is 
the only purpose why don't boys have to 
sign-out, or isn't it necessary to contact them 
in case of emergency? 

The system is bad enough but the hypo- 
crisy surrounding it is worse. Most deans, 
housemothers and students know that the real 
purpose of the system is to maintain the 
"innocence" of the women. Who are they 
kidding?

Thanks Extended 



May I take this opportunity to thank the 
.'Vutumn Leaf Festival Committee, the Cham- 
ber of Commerce, and sponsors of college 
floats for their cooperation with college or- 
ganizations in the production of a very suc- 
cessful Autumn Leaf Festival parade. Aut- 
umn Leaf Festival chairmen and Chamber 
of Commerce personnel were most helpful 
to us in planning and executing our portion 
of the parade. 

Congratulations to float winners but thanks 
to all who participated with the planning, 
building, and presenting of floats. 

I appreciate the help given by Deans Ethel 
B. V'airo and Dr. Donald Nair and congratu- 
late them for their handling of Homecoming 
activities.

John P. Saylor Will Speak 
At Clarion on Thursday 



John P. Saylor, candidate for re-election 
to the House of Representatives from the 
22nd Congressional District will speak at Cla- 
rion Slate on Thursday, October 31, in the 
north balcony of Tippin Gymnasium. 

Congressman Saylor, a graduate of Mer- 
cersburg Academy, Franklin & Marshall Col- 
lege, and Dickinson Law School, was first 
elected in a special election in 1949 and has 
been re-elected every two years since. He 
ranks No. 10 in seniority on the Republican 
side and No. 60 in the overall House member- 
ship of 435. Representative Saylor is the rank- 
ing member of the House Interior and Insular 
Affairs Committee, and is a member of the 
House Veterans Affairs Committee. 

Some of the stands taken by Congressman 
Saylor include: opposition to gun registration; 
favoring tax incentives to businesses to aid 
indu.strial decentralization and slum rebuild- 



ing; favoring reviews of welfare programs, 
federal aid to education programs, and the 
United States foreign aid and trade policies: 
sponsoring bills to check Supreme Court po- 
wer; favoring mandatory retirement of all 
federal elected and appointed officials at age 
70; and favoring the lifting of present restric- 
tions on the military if a negotiated setUe- 
ment cannot be reached in Vietnam. He also 
sponsored the controversial Scenic Rivers Act 
which includes the Clarion and Allegheny 
rivers. 

Congressman Saylor, on campus under the 
sponsorship of the Clarion State College Young 
Republicans, will speak on the following Is- 
sues: the Clarion River issue; conservation, 
law and order, his record in Congress, and 
his candidacy for re-election. 

Everyone is cordially invited to attend and 
to raise questions. 



President Gemmell Attends 
r- Conference in Hershey, Penna. 



Dr. James Gemmell, CSC president, attend- 
ed a conference in Hershey on Monday. The 
meeting was sponsored by the Pennsylvania 
AssociaUon of Colleges and Universities (PA- 
CU). 

At this convention, President Gemmell was 
a member of a panel which discussed the 
topic "New Concepts of Student, Faculty, 
and Administrative Cooperation." President 
Gemmell delivered a message on formulating 
long-range policies for a college or univer- 
sity, which developed into a worthwhile dis- 
cussion among the hundred college presidents 
that attended the convention. 

President Gemmell opened his remarks by 
stating that "college presidents spend too 
much time cleaning up the messes of the mo- 
ment to be very precise about the future." 
He then pointed out that part of the difficulty 
occurs because many of the presidents were 
appointed to their jobs with only the "vaguest 
kind of preparation." 

The president then offered a suggestion for 
dispelling this vagueness by proposing that 
presidents should seek "more cooperation 



among students, faculty, and administra- 
tion." But he also pointed out that "unless 
the financial coritrol behind the college is 
responsive to such cooperation very little will 
be accomplished." 

Further suggestions included a plea for 
better organizational mechanisms and for 
better ways to involve trustees in matters 
of student concern. 

President Gemmell urged that students be 
included in the technical aspects of planning 
and in consultative roles. A strong point for 
this argument was a suggestion to give stu- 
dents academic credit and to make institu- 
tional resources available to the students for 
participation in policy making. These two 
suggestions were well received by the pre- 
sidents, and a few stated that application 
of this idea at colleges could be effective. 

A remark of President Gemmell's which 
summed up his talk was: "The fundamental 
need is better communication, and communi- 
cation to me means candid answers to honest 
questions." 



Romoser^ Hill 
Lead Workshop 



The ability of teachers to diagnose learning 
deiiciencies, to prescribe strategies of in- 
struction that are consistent with the indi- 
vidual student's style of learning, and to eval- 
uate the effects of the strategies of instruc- 
tion— tliese are ideas being stressed by the 
directors of the college's Institute for Advan- 
ced Study for Teachers of Disadvantaged 
YouUi. 

These ideas were explained this week in 
a one-day workshop in individualizing instruc- 
tion which was conducted by Dr. Richard 
Romoser and Dr. Gene Hill for the Mercer 
County Principals' Association. Twenty-five 
principals, superintendents, and curriculum 
directors attended the workshop held at Mi- 
lan's Restaurant south of Mercer. Dr. Romo- 
ser is director and Dr. Hill is associate di- 
rector of the institute which is sponsored 
jointly by Clarion State College and the U.S. 
Office of Education under the provisions of 
Title XI of the National Defense Education 
Act. 

The purpose of the workshop was to illus- 
trate how a teacher would go about using 
an individualized approach in his classroom. 
To illustrate the points to be made, the ad- 
ministrators were asked to bring a news 
item, text book, and reference source related 
to Vietnam and Southeast Asia. These mater- 
ials were then used to show how a teacher 
could begin with current events and move 
into a formal social studies program while 
meeting individual needs of the students in 
the class. The administrator,3 went through 
the process of gathering facts, grouping them 
in similar categories, and showing how these 
groupings were related. As the various steps 
were carried out, the theories of application 
in the classroom were discussed. 



This method leads a teacher to develop 
notions of individualized instcuction in the 
classroom as well as a research approach 
to the instructional problems of his students.

Geography Club A Prize Winner from Venango 



New on Campus 

The Clarion Geographical Society is a new 
organization on campus this year. Although 
it was started this past spring, it did not 
become a part of the campus organizations 
until this faU. At the first meeting on Sep- 
tember 23, officers were elected. They are: 
Gloria Kerestan, president; Eugene Krueger, 
vice president; Melody Laveriek, secretary; 
and Pam Shaw, treasurer. 

The Society hopes to facilitate geographical 
interest among students and faculty. Anyone 
Interested in attending these meetings or be- 
coming a member will be welcome. To be- 
come a member, you need not be a geography 
student or a part of the geography faculty; 
the only requirement for an associate mem- 
bership, one who does not vote, is an interest 
in the field of geography. 

Currently, the Society is making plans to 
present membership cards to the members, 
both associate and full members. If you wish 
to join, the meetings are listed in the daily 

bulletins. 

The Clarion Geographical Society is re- 
sponsible for obtaining guest speakers con- 
cerned with the field of geography. Lectures 
by the geography faculty at Qarion are also 
planned. 

In the near future, the Society hopes to be- 
come associated with the honorary geogra- 
phical fraternity. Gamma Theta Upsilon, 
which has its national headquarters in Cla- 
rion. Lester Oakes, a faculty member here 
at Clarion, is the secretary of this national 
honorary fraternity. 

The organization has man>' plans for the 
future and it hopes to attract more mem- 
bers and interested people. The next meeting 
is October 30; it will include the presentation 
of slides by Miss Margaret Wiant. 

Metress Heads 
Shawnee Tribe 
Research Project 

In the depths of Egbert HaU. a little-known 
but fascinating project is being carried on. 
This work is being done by James Metress, 
associate professor of anthropology, and his 
two laboratory assistants, Andy Conway of 
St. Marys and Roxanne Grasso of Norwin. 

They are attempting to reconstruct and 
analyze the skeletons of 580 members of a 
17th century Shawnee Indian village from 
the Buffalo site on the Kanawha River in 
West Virginia. "The sk'^etomWAVfe «fent tor " 
Clarion by the Archaeological Division of the 
West Virginia Geogical Survey to be analyzed 
to determine the physical type, the sex, and 
evidence of diseases. 

The villagers were not particularly robust, 
possible evidences of tuberculosis, anemia, 
syphilis, and arthritis have been found m 
the bones. The genetic traits of the vill?£« 
will be compared with other villages for biolo- 
gical relationship. The average height for 
males was 5 foot 4 inches to 5 foot 6 inches 
and that of the females was 5 foot to 5 
foot 2 inches. An analysis of the teeth reveals 
poor dental health; every adult had an aver- 
age of six cavities and had lost four teeth; 
all teeth had disappeared m those individual's 
over 50 years of age. 

Paget's Disease Found 

One of the Indians may have had Paget's 
disease, a rare malady which leaves the vic- 
tim with heavy, very thick, and twisted 
bones. There have only been three or four 
recorded cases in the entire world. Other 
evidence of infectious disease had been isola- 
ted and the etilolgy of specific pathology 
is under analysis. 

Most of the adult inhabitants died between 
30 and 40 years of age, although there was 
also an extremely high infant mortality rate. 

The findings of this research work, in ad- 
dition to the information collected about the 
animal bones from the site, which are being 
studied by the Carnegie Museum, and the 
report on the artifacts of the group by the 
West Virginia Archaeological Survey, will be 
compared to similar sites from the same 
time period in the midwest. The results of 
Mr. Metress' work will probably be pub- 
lished as "The Osteobiography of a Shawnee 

Village." 

The Clarion laboratory of bio anthropology 
plans to bring in more material from Penn- 
sylvania and New York; it is equipped to 
handle skeletal analysis as efficiently and 
as quickly as any lab in the Eastern United 
States, and is one of a small number of 
places in the nation that do large scale skele- 
tal analysis. 

The VUlage Itself 

The village in which this particular Shaw- 
nee tribe lived was a settled one : they hunted, 
fished, grew crops, and engaged in tribal 
warfare. A large, oval, half-mile-long stock- 
ade surrounded all the main village. In the 
center was a large ceremonial plaza, around 
which clan lodges were located. These in 
turn were enclosed by three concentric rows 
of closely-spaced log houses with thatched 
roofs. 

Dog skeletons represent the only animals 
these people domesticated. An abundance of 
fish bones and clam shells, nut shells and 
charred corn cobs give clues to the foods 
the tribe consumed. Flint, wood, sandstone, 
mussel shells, and bones were utilized in 
the construction of tools and weapons. Pot- 
tery was used in making pipes, figurines, 
cooking pots, and many other vessels. 

Due to attacks by the League of Iroquois, 
Indians, the coming of the European .settlers, 
and diseases carried by the whit«-man. the 
tribe was forced westward into Ohio and

During the warm nights of early fall, the 
students at Venango Campus developed a new 
pattime— dancing in the parking lot. Cjjkl 
weather has ended this activity, but with 
the snow coming, maybe a new pastima will 
be found. Snow sculpturing classes? 1

Becker Chosen 
Player of Week 

Gentleman Jim Becker caught two touch- 
down passes and doubled as a running back 
to earn the Player of the W*ek Award for 
the Clarion-Indiana game. 

Jim's final effort was a spectacular catch 
of a %-yard bomb to end the third quarter. 
He previously caught Clarion's other touch- 
down pass for three yards earlier in the 
same period. 

The quiet, soft-spoken Becker is a 160-pound 
senior. The six-foot wingback has been a 
clutch receiver all .sca.son. Becker, a graduate 
of North Catholic High School in Pittsburgh, 
has often appeared in the line score as one 
of Clarion's leading receivers. 

Jim carries number 20 jersey and a lot 
of courage onto the field. He was an es- 
sential part of Clarion's last two Western 
Conference championships and is a vital cog 
in Erdeijac's passing game and in Coach 
Al Jacks' current bid to repeat.

Lazich to Present Voice Recital; 
Third /n Music Faculty Series 



MUutin Lazich, instructor of Music, will 
present a recital in voice (bass) at 8 p.m. 
Wednesday in the College Chapel. This re- 
cital is third in the faculty recital series 
presented by the Music Department of Cla- 
rion State College. The public is cordially 
invited to attend this event. 

Mr. Lazich started his undergraduate ca- 
reer at Northeast Missouri State Teachers 
College, where he was a recipient of a schol- 
arship in voice and violin. In 1965, he com- 
pleted his bachelor's degree in music educa- 
tion at Indiana University, Bloomington, In- 
diana, with a concentration in voice. This 
past summer, Mr. Lazich received his mas- 
ter's degree in voice and vocal pedagogy 
also from Indiana University at Bloomington. 

In additicm to his academic training, Mr. 
Lazich comes to Clarion State College with 
extensive experience in singing. During his 
undergraduate days, he performed in the col- 
lege orchestra, participated in the college 
choir and sang in more than eight operas 
presented by the Indiana University's School 
of Music. As a graduate student, he sang 
leading roles in approximately 10 operas, 
«uch as "Magic Flute," "Rigoletto," "Mac- 
beth," "Bartered Bride," "Andrea Chenier," 
and "Die Meister singer." 

During the summers between 1960-63, he 
was employed as a singer and actor in the 
summerstock theatre season of the Municipal 
Opera in St. Louis, Missouri. He performed 




MILUTIN LAZICH 

in approximately 40 musicals during that 
time, some of which have been "South Paci- 
fic," "Annie Get Your Gun," "Kiss Me 
Kate," "Unsinkable Molly Brown," "Briga- 
doon," "Pajama Game," "Lil Abner," "Can 
Can," "Student Prince," and "Oklahoma."

SIGMA TAU GAMMA 

The brothers of Sigma Tau Gamma, under 
the guidance of brother Thad Droast, head 
of security, are still selling raffle tickets 
for the Panasonic portable table stereo set. 
The drawing will be held November 2 at the 
Shippensburg game. Tickets are available 
from any brother. 

Money from this raffle and future projects 
will be put into the renovation of the Sig 
Tau house. Items being considered are wall- 
to-wall carpeting throughout the house, 
new doors, new drapery, painting all rooms 
and halls, and the possibili^ of iidditional 
water pressure for the showers. 

Pinnings took place recently between Mike 
"Hawk" McCormick and C£»thie Pod^ny, a 
Sigma Kappa from Indiana; and Mike "Dog" 
Dominick and Rae Richards, Sigma Sigma

THETI CHI 

Belated best wishes to Ed and Merlene 
Weicht Douglas and Gene and Linda Smith 
Smith. Best wishes are also in order on the 
recent marriages of Greg and Lynn Davis 
Pierce and Jim aAd Kathy Sweeney Levey. 

Congratulations to.Zeb Smarick and Janey 
Krchnak on their being lavaliered. 

Congratulations also to the first-place float 
winners, Theta Xi and Delta Zeta. 

At this time we are proud to announce 
our new pledge class and welcome them into 
the fold: Damon Morris, Don Metcalf, Frank 
South, Jim Clouse, John Brumberg, Rick Le- 
wis, Jim Trunzo, Waly Rapp, Tom Camise, 
• John Hafera, and Ray Raechner. 

A fine rush party, chairmaned by Doug 
Shaffer, was held at the Hullabaloo Scene 
(Klingy's Palace) and entertainment was fur- 
nished by George Tweedy and his band, The 
.Sigma Sigma Sigma Singing Group, The Del- 
tones, and Nancy Yates and Donna Wagner, 
our go-go girls. We would like to express 
our thanks to these people and anyone else 
who had a part in making our rush party 
a huge success. 

Theta Chi is proud to announce the Dream 
Girl for the year, Miss Shawn Williams of 
Sigma Sigma Sigma sorority. 

Before closing, Theta Chi would like to 
wish good luck to the Golden Eagles at Cali- 
fornia this weekend. As far as we're con- 
cerned, the Eagles are like the Packers used 
to be under the direction of Vince Lombardi, 
because Al Jacks' team might lose a game 
occasionally, but when it comes to the nitty- 
gritty, the Eagles, like "TTie Pack." are the 
t«am you put your money wi. Say it loud, 
•'we're number one, and we're proud." 

ALPHA SIGMA TAU 

The sisters of Alpha Sigma Tau are proud 
to announce their fall pledge class: Sharon 
Fierst, Nancy Graoberg, Peggy Harding, Ma- 



ry Ellen Milowicki, Nene Morella, Nancy 
Plese, and Kathy Steinard. These sure are 
girls to be proud of. The pledges were ribbon 
pledged on Tuesday night, October 22, 1968. 
We wish them luck in their eight weeks of 
pledging under the faithful leadership of their 
pledge mistress, Carol Kahle. 

The AST Sextet want to thank the brothers 
of Phi Sigma Epsilon, Tau Kappa Epsilon, 
and Theta Chi for asking them to sing at 
their smokers although sorority rush parties 
kept them away. We sure are sorry we 
missed them and hope we can help you out 
some other time. 

We'd like to thank the brothers of Alpha 
Gamma Phi for their warm reception at their 
smoker. 

The CSC Eagles made a fine performance 
in last Saturday's game against Indiana, We 
were behind you all the way team, and we're 
still "Number One!" 

The sisters would like to thank the student 
body for supporting last week's dance at 
Forest Manor. We hope to have more in 
the future. 

PHI SIGMA EPSILON 

The brothers of Phi Sigma Epsilon con- 
gratulate the Clarion football team on a game 
well played against Indiana University. The 
Phi Sigs know that we're "Number One," 
and wish good luck to the football team at 
California this Saturday. 

Congratulations are also extended to Bro- 
ther Art Triveri who was pinned to Susan 
Montgomery of Sharpsburg, Pennsylvania. 

ALPHA SIGMA ALPHA 

Tuesday night the sisters of Alpha Sigma 
Alpha picked up their pledges and celebrated 
with pizza and coke. The pledges, Bev Reed,

Golden Eagles are Defeated Eagle Band to Perform at California 

in Tight Defensive Battle 



Last Saturday Clarion's Golden Eagles 
were defeated, 1813, by the Indians of In- 
diana in a tight defensive battle. Indiana, 
who was ranked number six in small colleges 
nationally, was stunned by the Golden Eagle 
defense. 

In the first half, the Clarion defense stopped 
the Indians six times before the Indians 
scored on a 25-yard field goal by Bob Tate. 
Clarion's defensive line gave up only 54 yards 
rushing and 59 yards in the air. The Indians 
fumbled four times in the first half and Cla- 
rion recovered two of them, but were unable 
to move the ball. The Clarion offense in 
the first half was stopped by an equally 
fierce Indiana defense. The score as the 
teams went into the locker rooms at half- 
time was Indiana 3, Clarion 0. 

In the third quarter, Clarion's offense start- 
ed moving after the defense provided them 
with the ball via two interceptions. The first 
interception was by Fran Sirianni on the In- 
diana 47-yard line. The Golden Eagles drove 
to the Indiana 29-yard line where a fumble 
stopped them. 

Four plays later, Tom Humphrey inter- 
cepted another Blucas pass at the Clarion 
40-yard line and returned it 20 yards to the 
Indiana 40-yard line. In 11 plays, Clarion 
drove in for the score on a three-yard pass 
from Bob Erdeljac to Jim Becker. John Dor- 
ish missed his first extra point of the season 
and Clarion led 6 to 3. Clarion's defense, 
after the kickoff, tightened and forced In- 
diana to punt. Clarion started their 80-yard 
drive, ending in a spectacular 39-yard touch- 
down pass from Erdeljac to Becker on the 
last play of the third quarter. John Dorish 
then kicked the extra point. 

Indiana came back in the fourth quarter 
with two touchdowns. Wally Blucas threw 
to Dave Smith for four yards and a touch- 
down, capping a 73-yard drive. Smith scored 
a two-point conversion. The score was Garion 
13, Indiana 11. 

After the kickoff. Clarion was forced to 
give up the ball to Indiana on the Clarion 
44-yard line after Clarion failed to make a 
first down. Indiana then drove the 44 yards 
in seven plays with Blucas running the last 



Football Team 
To California 
For Big Game 

Clarion State's Saturday clash with Cali- 
fornia State at their Homecoming could well 
be the sternest test of the season for the 
men of Jacks. 

Now in first place with Shippensburg in 
the second slot, a win over the Golden Eagles 
would clinch the Western Conference PSCAC 
title for the Vulcans. They are now 4-1 overall 
and 3-0 in conference play. 

Coach Bill Hepner's lads have bowed only 
to Waynesburg this season, and that by a 
narrow 27-26 margin. They have disposed 
of Dennison University, 36-0; Lock Haven, 
27-26; Slippery Rock, 42-6, and Shippensburg, 
30-14. 

"California State has a very offensive-mind- 
ed team, and are presently co-favorites with 
Shippensburg to win the Western Conference 
crown," commented Coach Al Jacks. 

"The Vulcans have good size, speed, ag- 
gressiveness and have earned the respect 
of the entire conference." 

With eight seniors, two juniors and one so- 
phomore in their offense, the Vulcans have 
basically the same team as last year, when 
they posted a 5-3 mark. Two fine seniors 
on the defense and 22 lettermen overall round 
them out as a formidable foe. 

Stellar Jeff Petrucci, number one quarter- 
back in the nation last year in total offense 
and currently ranking third in the NCAA 
rating, is the man to watch for the Vulcans. 
Last week the flashy Charleroi youngster 
piled up 105 yards in seven tries. He has 
made 13 TD tosses so far this season. 

Hepner has a top receiver in Pete Gial- 
ames, another Charleroi senior with seven 
TD passes received and high school class- 
mate of Petrucci. 

Al Jacks expects his charges to be on 
the upswing after last week's loss to Indiana. 
The Eagles are not especially plagued by 
injuries at this time. 

Clarion's mentor is basing his hopes on 
the solid arm of Bob Erdeljac, the running 
of Bob Oberdorf whose sprained ankle is 
nearly healed, as well as the heads-up play 
of wingback Jim Becker, linebackers Elmer 
Schuetz, Art Tragesser, Art Triveri, and a 
host of fine defensive players who have made 
the Golden Eagles a force to be reckoned 
with in 1968. 

It's a crucial contest, but it wouldn't be 
wise to count the Eagles out of the Western 
Conference race just yet. Wins over Cali- 
fornia and Shippensburg, the meat of the 
conference, would bring home the bacon for 
the Jacksmen. A win over the Vulcans and 
a loss to Shippensburg would still give the 
title to California, a week later. 

A 12:05 p.m. Homecoming parade in Cali- 
fornia will delay the kickoff Saturday until 
2:15 p.m. 



hope the contributions were tremendous and 
the drive was a success. 

Delta Zetas would like to extend their 
thanks to all the fraternities at whose smok- 
ers they were asked to hostess and sing. 
It was our pleasure. 



)o yards for the touchdown with 5:44 left 
in the game. Tate kicked the extra point, 
making the score Indiana 18, Clarion 13. 

Clarion, still in the game, made two more 
attempts to win, but when an Erdeljac pass 
was intercepted, Indiana seemed to have the 
game won. Again the Clarion defense stiffen- 
ed and forced Indiana to punt. Clarion took 
over on its own 22-yard line with less than 
a minute to play in the game. They drove 
down to the Indiana 25-yard line on the 
strength of Erdeijac's arm before the final 
gun sounded. With a few more breaks, the 
Indians could have been scalped. 

Clarion (ravels to California tomorrow to 
battle the Vulcans in what shapes up !• be 
the game for the Western Conference cham- 
pionship. California defeated Shippensburg, 
30-14, last Saturday to remain the only other 
undefeated team in the Western Conference. 

California has been flying high on the arm 
of Jeff Petrucci, who led the nation in pass- 
ing last year. Remember, Eagles, we have 
a date with East Stroudsburg on November 
16; let's keep it.

OPINION POLL 



CSC Students Tell Problems 
Of Chandler Dining Hall Ruling 



By ROSEMARY SLEBODNIK 



Returning to issues of local import, our 
opinion poll for this week concerns Chandler 
Dining Hall. The question was: "What 15 
your reaction to the section of the rules gover- 
ning our housing contract which states: 'All 
students living in residence halls are required 
to eat in college-supervised dining halls'?" 

Tricia Burrows: "I think it is unfair to 
many students financially. Because of my 
own schedule conflicts, I can only eat one 
lunch a week in the dining hall. We should 
have the right to choose where and what 
we want to eat, and how much we want 
to spend on food. We figured it out, and 
a student does save money — if he eats every 
meal in the cafeteria. Otherwise, it is a finan- 
cial loss to buy a meal ticket." 

Linda Davison: "I think it is a waste of 
time and money. Most of the time, menus 
aren't appetizing, and force many students 
to spend more money on food elsewhere. 
I think we should be able to choose whether 
or not to eat all, or just some meals, and 
whether to eat week days or weekends. If 
given the choice, I'd eat elsewhere." 

Becky Dixon, who lives in Jefferson Hall, 
explains why many Jefferson residents disap- 
prove of the rule: "I don't think we should 
have to pay the food service fees, because 
half of the students don't eat there anyway 
— especially in off-campus dorms. I've lived 
in Jefferson for two years, and in the winter, 
when the weather is bad, many times we 
don't feel like going to supper. So I'm not 
getting the full benefit of the meal ticket." 

Brian Dubovsky appears to be dissatisfied 
with the food choices in our dining hall: 
"I don't think this should be a rule. It could 
be an option. Many times you don't have 
much choice of what you're going to eat. 
Many times they will run out of one choice 
of food at a meal, which I think is unfair, 
I don't Uke not being allowed to go back 
for 'seconds' at supper, since most of the 
time Ihey don't give you enough to eat — but 
then, most of the time it isn't worth eating 
anyway." 

Suzi Albanesi disagrees with the rule be- 
cause of its irrelevance to our presence here: 
"It is the student who chooses this college 
as a place to learn. He is not commissioned 
to be here by any person or group of per- 
sons. Therefore, it should be his choice where 
he wants to eat. Eating habits are irrele- 



vant to education and learning. I think this 
rule was made for the purpose of making 
rules and creating more problems, to create 
more committees." 

Though many criticized, only some could 
offer suggestions. These are some sugges- 
tions: Frank Becker: "I don't think it is 
a good policy thai all residents must buy 
a meal ticket. If college-operated dorms had 
this rule, it would be different, because you 
can choose your dorm. In private dorms, 
it should not be mandatory." 

Kathy Byrne: "I think we should be able 
to buy a meal ticket for a designated num- 
ber of meals, which could be punched or 
checked, because very few people eat all 
meals in the cafeteria." 

Since no students are exempt from eating 
in the cafeteria this semester for "medical 
reasons" (it was explained to them that the 
cafeteria could fulfill their needs better than 
any place in town), it .should be Expected 
that the dining hall would provide good, eas- 
ily-digested food. Ralph Conte claims that 
the food is bad for his digestion (and for 
many other students' digestion), because it 
is not prepared properly. The selections are 
all too often too greasy or too starchy. 

Ford Shankle has expressed sound reasons 
why this rule should lemain in effect: 
"Wouldn't it be chaotic if everybody went 
downtown to eat'.' There are just too many 
students for the facilities this town offers. 
Plus, what would happen to our multi-mil- 
lion dollar dining hall? Actually, it's a lot 
more convenient for me to go to the dining 
hall than to go downtown to eat." 

These, then, are some- of the major argu- 
ments for and against the present ruling: 
Pro: the lack of facilities elsewhere in Cla- 
rion, the proximity of the dining hall to most 
dorms, the inexpensive, yet filling meals ($9 
a week), and the fact that many students 
(face it) are not competent enough to get 
their own meals. Con: lack of selection, the 
"miss-meal" factor (Servomation receives a 
flat rate from each student, whether or not 
he eats every meal) and the desire for free- 
dom from such an obligation. 

Obviously, Servomation cannot hope to sat- 
isfy all students, but it is our desire that 
a system more satisfactory to more students 
be devised. 



Kathleen Suzanne Gemmell 
Weds Eugene Robert Piatt 



Miss Kathleen Suzanne Gemmell and Mr. 
Eugene Robert Piatt were married at seven 
p.m. last Saturday, in a double-ring Episco- 
pal ceremony at the College Chapel. The 
bride is the daughter of Dr. James Gem- 
mell, college president, and Mrs. Gemmell. 
The groom is the son of Mrs. Paul Calhoun 
Piatt and the late Mr. Piatt of 827 Cleans 
Road, Charleston, South Carolina. 

Depicts Scottish Theme 

The wedding was the first to be held in 
the College Chapel in twenty-five years. In 
keeping with the Scottish ancestry of both 
the bride and groom, a number of traditional 
Scottish customs were observed. The Chapel 
was decorated with white heather, yellow and 
burgundy mums, and laurel greens, reflect- 
ing the colors of the Ancient MacMillan tar- 
tan worn by the clan Irom which the groom 
is descended. Across her wedding gown, the 
bride wore an evening sash of the MacMillan 
tartan, fastened at the waist by a silver 
Lachenbooth brooch, the traditional gift of 
the groom to his fiancee at the time of en- 
gagement. 

The bride's full-length gown was of ivory 
silk peau de soie with a high scoop neckline 
defined by a wide ruffle, and dipped to a low 
back scoop. An attached train was framed 
with the wide ruffle motif and complemented 
the ruffled long sleeves. An ivory illusion 
veil with blusher caught by a bow of the 
gown's fabric completed the costume. The 
bride carried a cascade arrangement of 
white daisies, stephanotis, babies'-breath, 
and trailing ivy, with a gardenia center. 

Carried Yellow Mums 

The maid of hdfeor was the bride's cousin. 
Miss Nancy J. Segebarth of Washington, D. 
C. The bridesmaids were Miss Judith Helene 
Alexander, Miss Patricia Suzanne Caldwell, 
and Mrs. Robert Weisenbach, all of Wash- 
ington, D. C. ; Miss C. Diane Fry, of Chicago, 
Illinois, and Mrs. Thomas Hoeffner, of Hor- 
nell. New York. The bride's attendants were 
all attired in long drindl skirts of soft wool 
in the Ancient MacMillan plaid. Their blouses 
were of ivory crepe, with high ruffled collars 
and long ruffled sleeves. They wore velvet 
bows complementing the tartan in their 
hair, and carried arm t>ouquets of yellow 
mums and babies'-breath. The maid of honor 
carried yellow and burgundy mums. 

Employed by Navy Department 

The best man was Mr. John Pennington 
Simpson of Washington, D. C. Serving as 
ushers were Messrs. Timothy Taylor Kay 
Spadafora of Washington, D. C. ; Robert Wil- 
liam Frasch, of Rochester, New York; Her- 
man Mac Felder, III, of Winston Salem, 
North Carolina, and the bride's brothers, 
James Christopher and Ted K. Gemmell, of 
Clarion, Pennsylvania. The groom and 
groomsmen were attired in formal evening 
wear. The groom's boutonniere was a sprig 
of stephanotis, and the groomsmen wore gar- 
denias. 

The service was conducted by Father Don- 
ald J. Monson of Saint Paul's Episcopal 
Church in Washington, D. C. He was assisted

PROUDFIT PLANS FOR CSC 



Clarion State Establishes 
Conservation Ed. Center 



Plans for Clarion State College's proposed 
Conservation Education Center moved ahead 
recently when committee members made an 
on-site inspection of the 200-acre tract ad- 
joining the new 5,000-acre Sandy Lake State 
Park now under construction. 

Byron Ashbaugh. associate director of the 
National Audobon Society, met with a nine 
member faculty committee and others from 
the college in a pre-inspection orientation 
session at nearby Lakeview Inn. A coffee 
hour preceded the orientation. The half-day 
session concluded with luncheon. 

Ashbaugh, a former Clarion resident and 
graduate of Clarion State College, told the 
group the site is ideally suited for outdoor 
educatioK and congratulated the group for 
its foresight in planning the center which 
will be the first of its kind in the state. 
He explained a diagram .showing various ele- 
ments making up a conservation program. 

Dr. David Hilton, in charge of construction 
for the project, presented a probable time- 
table for development of the facility, noting 
that occupancy by using organizations is 
some two and one-half years avvay. 

Dormitory-classroom units, accommodating 
study groups of 100 or less at a time will 
be built on the tract which includes the old 
Rocky Basin Park. The Center program, to 



be planned by the committee, will include 
activities for students from kindergarten 
through college level. 

Dining, conference and maintenance facil- 
ities in addition to homes for a resident di- 
rector and caretaker will be built to adminis- 
ter the facility, which is a part of Clarion 
State College, hut will provide outdoor edu- 
cation services to public schools, colleges 
and universities in a wide area of Western 
Pennsylvania. 

Committee members present were Chair- 
man Harold Simmons, dean of professional 
studies; Dr. Gustav Konitzky, anthropology; 
Dr. William Chamberlain, science education- 
biology; Donald Leas, health, physical edu- 
cation and recreation; Dr. John McLain, Cen- 
ter for Educational Research; Galen Ober, 
physical science; Joseph Spencc. fine arts; 
Dr. Don Totten, geography, and Dr. Arnold 
Zaeske, elementary education. 

Otners in attendance were Dr. Hilton, as- 
.sistant to the president; Mrs. Samuel Wil- 
helm, president of the Clarion County Fed- 
eration of Women's Clubs and its forrrer 
conservation chairman; Messrs. William Eck- 
les, R. K. Thompson and Dominic Palombo, 
architects; William Proudfit, college informa- 
tion specialist, and Howard Barger, college 
photographer. 




Committee Members Discuss Plans For New Conservation Center 



McDonald^ Cor belt Assisting Speech 



Bill McDonald and Chuck Corbett, both 
working toward the master of education de- 
gree in speech pathology and audiology, are 
graduate assistants in speech and hearing 
work. They assist the instructors and do clin- 
ical research in addition to working on their 
degrees. 

Mr. McDonald is a 1958 graduate of Clarion 
where he majored in English and social stu- 
dies. Following graduation he was an elemen- 
tary teacher in the Cameron County Schools 
and a supply analyst at the United States 
Navy Depot in Mechanicsburg. Mr. McDon- 
ald's hometown is Phillipsburg and he hopes 
to work in that general area after he re- 



ceives his master's degree, perhaps in a re- 
habilitation center which is planned for the 
near future. 

A native of Clarion, Mr. Corbett majored 
in speech pathology and audiology and grad- 
uated from CSC. in 1968. Before returning 
to work on his degree and as an assistant, 
Mr. Corbett was the speech therapist in the 
Clarion County Schools for one semester. At 
the moment, he hopes to enter clinical work 
after he earns his degree, but in no particular 
area of the state, "whatever looks favorable 
at the time." Mr. Corbett is married to the 
former Betsy Ross, who is employed by the 
Carlson Library. 



ETHEL VAIRO 



Senate Rules to 
Underwrite Events 



A special fund has been set up by the 
Student Senate for the purpose of aiding cam- 
pus organizations in sponsoring functions. 

The following has unanimously been ap- 
proved by the Social Committee of the Clarion 
Students' Association as the procedure by 
which any recognized campus organization

mittee meeting with a requisition for the 
event, and must first have the date for the 
function approved by the Social Committee.

Campus Mock 
Election Scheduled 

A mock election for the 1968 Presidential 
election will be sponsored by the Clarion Call 
staff and the Intercollegiate Conference on 
Government (ICG). By means of the election. 
Clarion students may obtain some idea of 
where they stand politically in comparison 
with the actual national results. 

A voting table will be set up in Chandler 
Hall on November 5, Election Day. The polls 
will be open from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. on 
Tuesday, and the results will be tabulated 
immediately following the election. 

Members of both the Call and the ICG will 
conduct the voting procedures. Anyone m ish- 
ing to help with this election should contact 
any member of either organization to obtain 
a work schedule. 

The results will be published in the Daily 
Bulletin on Wednesday morning and also in 
Friday's edition of the Call. 

All students are urged to vote in order to 
get a more accurate and representative tabu- 
lation. 



ALL-CAMPUS DANCE TO 
FEATURE 'CHARADES* 

The "Charades" will be featured in an 
all-campus dance in Chandler Hall at 9 
o'clock tonight, .^n admission price of 50 
cents will be charged at the door. 

The "Charades" are an allsoul group, 
which have been summoned due to student 
demands. A large turnout is anticipated by 
members of the social committee for this 
group. 

Dick Riddle, a member of the social 
committee, stated that this dance is an- 
other function that "the social committee 
is sponsoring to help bring better enter- 
tainment to this campus. For this reason 
all students are urged to attend this dance 
to show that they care about their activi- 
ties."

Editorially 
Speaking 



On The Election . . . 



Next Tuesday, November 5th, the 
people of the United States of Ameri- 
ca will choose a president. This presi- 
dent, whoever he may be, will decide 
the destiny of Ameriga and the entire 
woild for the next four years. His 
power and responsibilities will be awe- 
some. 

The President's foreign policy will 
decide whether the world will go on or 
become a desolate heap of nuclear 
ashes. It will also decide whether 
America will .stand free and powerful 
or succumb to the forces of world com- 
mun.om. The President's domestic 
policy will determine whether America 
will be a two-class nation of privileged 
and underprivileged citizens, or a na- 
tion of equal opportunity. And his eco- 
nomic policies will determine whether 
America will continue to prosper or 
sink into a depression such as this gen- 
eration has never seen. The life of ev- 
ery American from college student to 
Wall Street businessman will be deeply 
affected by the decisions that the next 
President makes. 

But in spite of the grave impor- 
tance attached to this man, a great 
number of Americans do not care who 
becomes President. The current per- 
centage of voters in American presi- 



dential elections is approximately sixty 
percent of the eligible electorate. The 
lemaining forty percent, it seems, care 
very little for their country or them- 
selves. They prefer to sit back and let 
their fellow citizens mjike all of the im- 
portant decisions for them. And un- 
fortunately, these decisions are not al- 
ways sound. 

Apathy of this type is extremely 
dangerous in a society such as we have 
in America. It is conceivable that a 
citizen who doesn't care whether a 
Humphrey or a Nixon is elected to the 
presidency, may not care whether a 
Rockwell or a Welch is elected. Al- 
though this may seem ridiculous, we 
have only to open our history books to 
the years 1932 through 1945 to see 
what can happen. As we know, a 
small group of people can control a 
nation and lead it into insanity. 

Many students at Clarion State 
College are eligible to vote. To these 
students, part of the responsibility 
fdlls. It is your duty as an American 
citizen to cast your ballot this Tuesday. 
Your entire future and the future of 
your children and your children's chil- 
dren may depend on it.

Visiting Privileges Requested 



Hours for the women students 
were extended this semester. There- 
foie, students now have more tiniE'tind 
more oppoitunities to participate in 
activities which are centered outside 
the dormitorv. However, two impor- 
tant facilities on this campus have not 
conformed with the changed hours, 
and continue to close at both inade- 
quate and inconvenient times. 

These two facilities are the library 
and the student union. Both are key 
centers for students who want to study 
or socialize in the evenings. However, 
as the hours now stand, students are 
forced to leave these places at a rela- 
tively unreasonable hour. 

The library now .closes at 10 p.m. 
which is not adequate^ for the students' 
needs. It is generally known that most 
students study late it^ the evening be- 
cause other obligations prevent earlier 
se.ssions. But since the library closes 
so early, many students fail to com- 
plete a.ssignments on time; others are 
rushed and consequently end up doing 
sub-average work. 

Another argument for extending 
the library hours revolves around com- 
m u t e r s and off-campus residents. 
These students must often walk or 
drive considerable distances to get to 
the library, and feel that the journey 



is not worth their effort if they are to 
be turned away so soon. As a result, 
these students often are deprived of 
the library facilities that they are as 
much entitled to as the resident stu- 
dents. 

The student union is also guilty 
of following outdated standards. The 
union is the only place on campus that 
the students can meet, enjoy music, 
ahd buy refreshments. For this rea- 
spn, the union is important; students 
appreciate having a place to go and a 
place to socialize. 

If women students can stay out 
until 2:00 a.m. on weekends, why 
shouldn't they be able to spend more 
tftne in the union? Often a girl and 
her date enjoy being in the union 
where they can talk and keep company 
wiith friends. In fact, this is often the 
ohly place to go on campus. But since 
the union closes its doors at 12:00 on 
Friday and Saturday, all students must 
leave, and those that have no other 
place to go must return to the dorm. 

Many students would readily ap- 
preciate an extension of hours in both 
the library and the union. This being 
the case, why shouldn't steps be taken 
to have these changes made?

THE CALL -- Clarion State College, Clarion, Pennsylvania 




LEHER TO 
THE EDITOR 



Editor, The Call: 

In the October 25 issue of the Call, Clarion 
.students were subjected to an editorial tirade 
criticizing the student body for failure to 
support campus-sponsored social activities. 
Granted, this is indeed a rtorthwhile concern 
on our campus. But I think the impact of 
that editorial was lost amidst the baseless 
invectives which were aimed .at the student 
body. 

In the October 4 issue, the Call outlined 
its "goal for higher journalistic standards." 
In explaining these standards, it was pointed 
out that "the purpose of any paper is to in- 
form the public of what is happening — here 
on campus, or anywhere that news is made. 
As far as we know, 'facts, facts, facts' are 
the only efficient way to transfer news." Un- 
fortunately, last Friday's editorial was writ- 
ten with absolutely no consideration fot the 
facts. We were told that "these same stu- 
dents who do not attend social functions, 
are the very ones who complain about a 
lack of social activities ... the first to blame 
the administration ... the first to criticize 
the activities that are planned, and Uiey are 
the first to condemn anything new that is 
tried." Even the least perceptive Clarion stu- 
dent can see that there is no basis for a gen- 
eralization like that. Editors, we are not com- 
plete idiots. The Call has come a long way 
since last year, but if this is to be continued, 
we must be able to expect you, above all, to 
adhere to the standards which yau have set 
for the rest of the student body.

Myron Klingensmith Controls 
Clarion State Purse Strings 







MYRON KLINGENSMITH 

'J. B/ Presentation 
Evokes Discussion 

The first Clarion State College Readers 
"Theatre of the Mind" production, J. B., 
written by Archibald MacLeish, which was 
presented in the College Chapel Tuesday eve- 
ning, proved to be a stimulating experience 
for both readers and audience. 

The play is a modern version of the bibli- 
cal story of Job, who lost all his worldly 
poss'fcssions in a test of his faith in God. 
J.B., like Job. emerges from the ordeal a 
less self-centered man and a better human 
being. 

Members of the cast included: Steve Brez- 
zo in the role of J.B., Lorraine Martin as 
his wife, Sarah, Suzi Albanesi as their daugh- 
ter, Rebecca, Ken Miller as Zophar (J.B.'s 
conscience), and John Solomon as Zeus. 
George Hall played Nickles (Satan), and also 
did an outstanding job of directing. 

Adhering to the concept of the "Theatre 
of the Mind," the readers invited the audience 
to participate in an open discussion of the 
play, its interpretation, and its execution. 
The audience response was positive, and re- 
sulted in an hour's discussion of many ques- 
tions: "What caused Job's suffering?" "Were 
the implications of J.B. the same as in the 
original Old Testamifint story?", ",Was Mac- 
Leish advocating humanism or Christianity?" 
In spite of the length and depth of the dis- 
cussion only one conclusion was reached dur- 
ing the evening — J.B. wos a worthwhile pro- 
duction, and those who attended spent an 
evening that was intellectually enjoyable. 

The College Readers, under the supervision 
of Dr. Mary Hardwick, are scheduled to take 
their production of J.B. to the annual Oral 
Interpretative Reading Festival, next Friday 
and Saturday, at Temple University in Phil- 
adelphia.

By SUE FAIR 

Since January 30, 1967, Myron Klingensmith 
has been the business manager of the Clarion 
Students Association. He has an oJfice ip 
the basement of the Administration Building, 
.vet many students are unaware of him and 
his duties. 

Originally from Leechburg, Mr. Klingen- 
smith is a graduate of the New Kensington 
Business School. For 32 years he worked 
for the AUegheny-Ludlum Steel Corporation, 
West Leechburg division, where he partici- 
pated in a three-year training course in Sys- 
tems, Procedures, and Supervision, sponsored 
by General Electric. 

In 195d, Mr. Klingensmith was appointed 
to the election board of Armstrong County 
for the state-wide teachers election, in which 
all teachers in Pennsylvania had to decide 
whether or not to integrate teacher retire- 
ment benefits with the social security pro- 
gram. For three years, he was a building 
inspector for the Pennsylvania State Building 
Authority within Armstrong County. 

Prepared For Job 

Mr. Klingensmith feels that the 16 years 
he spent on the School board in the Gilpin 
Town.ship and Leechburg Area Schools pre- 
pared him for his job at Clarion. Of those 
16 years, he served six years as secretary 
and seven as president. He came to Clarion 
in 1967 through Robert Nigro, business man- 
ager of Clarion State College. 

Mr. Klingensmith's duties and responsibili- 
ties as business manager of the Clarion Stu- 
dents Association are many. He must insure 
that all fees, dues, and assessments are con- 
trolled and accounted for; that all cash col- 
lected is reconciled to the student population 
to which it is applicable; that all cash sales 
in the bookstore and snackbar are properly 
accounted for and are recorded daily. In 
addition, there are records kept for vending 
machines sales, for publications, for ticket 
sales for all monetary items; in short, he 
must account for all funds of the Clarion 
Students Association. 

Approves Purchases 

He is the financial administrator of 40 cam- 
pus organizations; he must insure that all 
items purchased are properly authorized, ap- 
proved, and under budget control. He is noti- 
fied by an organization representative who 
fills out a purchase request form if the pur- 
chase is under $100; however, if the item 
wanted is over a $100 limit, Mr. Klingensmith 
must solicit bids from three companies and 
award the order to the lowest bidder. This 
usually involves only his largest accounts, es- 
pecially the athletic and music departments 
and the Social Committee. 

A major item for Mr. Klingensmith is the 
control of all funds allocated by the Student 
Senate. In the purchase of capital items, 
like the new chairs for the Student Union, 
the approval of President Gemmell and the 
business manager is necessary for the trans- 
fer of funds from the Student Union Improve- 
ment Fund to the Fee-supported Fund. In 
addition to this, all fixed assets on any capi- 
tal items must be accounted for, and each 
year, depreciation of value must be noted 
in the records. 

Handles Insufficient Funds Checks 

All cash and credit sales in the bookstore 
n\ust be recorded, accounted for, and de- 
posited. An important item, which Mr. Klin- 
gensmith also handles, is the checks cashed 
by the students in the bookstore which are 
returned to him marked insufficient funds. 
These checks are entered on the books and 
are turned over to Security, under Thaddeus 
Droast, who collects the money. Failure to 
pay results in the loss of the check-cashinij 
privilege in the bookstore. Grades are with- 
held only in the failure to pay activity fees 
or credit accounts. Mr. Klingensmith noted, 
however, that there are only a minimal 
amount of due bills and checks; the students 
take care of any mistakes in a short time 
after they are notified of their error. 

Mr. Klingensmith's duties are many; they 
involve much paperwork, many helpers, and 
careful records of the many activities of this 
campus. Each year, his books are audited 
by the State. He has assumed much responsi- 
bility and he handles his job efficiently.

Funeral services for Miss Bertha Nair, re- 
tired English professor at Clarion State Col- 
lege, were held recently in Clarion. She died 
at the age of 79 in Allegheny Genial Hos- 
pital, Pittsburgh, on October 5. 

A graduate of Beaver Falls High School, 
Miss Nair received her bachelor's degree 
at Westminster College and her master's at 
the University of Pittsburgh. She did addi- 
tional graduate work at Harvard, the Uni- 
versity of Wisconsin, and the University of 
southern California. Among the schools where 
she taught in her 45-year teaching career 
are; Hickory Township High School in Sharon 
and Mount Oliver High School in Pittsburgh. 

An active member of the College Faculty 
Club, and the Association of University Wo- 
men and Faculty Women, Miss Nair found 
time for literary tours through England and 
New England. In addition, she published sev- 
eral articles. She was also a member of 
a statewide committee which recommended 
the basic curriculum for English majors in 
Pennsylvania State Colleges. 

By being a good friend, by displaying,rde- 
votion to her work, and by being sinc^fely 
interested in her students. Miss Nair en- 
deared her.self to the many students in her 
classes during the 38 years she spei^,-%it 
Clarion. She showed great personal int«'est 
in her students, not only during the years 
she taught them; but later in her many jgu^r- 
neys she called on them. 

Miss Nair recruited students and helped 
guide them, also she persuaded Dean John 
Mellon to take his first job at ClaricHi. He 
describes her as having had a good sense 
of humor and as an "absent-minded profes- 
sor of the feminine gender." Many tisies, 
she would abruptly halt a class to sent a 
student the few blocks to her house to turn 
off the oven. 



Dr. Ernest Johnson of the Psychology De- 
partment, one of her former students, re- 
calls Miss Nair as, "the epitome of gracious- 
ness. She was more than a mentor, she was 
a dear friend who will always be remem- 
bered. The stidents not only learned from 
her, but also felt the warmth of her person- 
ality; they took pleasure in attending her 
classes." 

Friends of Miss Nair plan to contribute 
in her memory to the Clarion State College 
Scholarship Fund.

THE CALL — Clarion State College, ClarloBi. Pennsylvania 



Vulcans Clip 
Eagles' Wings 



The Vulcans of California, due to the run- 
ning and passing of Jeff Petrucci, rode to 
victory over the Golden Eagles of Clarion by 
the score of 26-21. Clarion lost many oppor- 
tunities to win the game as was shown by 
the final score. 

California scored first after Vernon Phil- 
lips intercepted a Bob Erdeljac pass on the 
Clarion 40-yard line. Four plays later, Petruc- 
ci threw the ball 35 yards to George Carlock 
for a touchdown. Paul Zolak kicked the ex- 
tra point. California 7, Clarion 0. Clarion 
tallied after a California punt was taken by 
Bob Oberdorf and returned to the California 
19-yard line. Three plays later Bob Erdeljac 
scored from the one-yard line. Erdeljac threw 
to Jim Becker for a two-point conversion. The 
score, California 7, Clarion 8. California took 
the kickoff and marched 65 yards in four 
plays, capped by a 23-yard touchdown pass 
from Petrucci to Jim Trambetta. Zolak 
kicked the extra point and the score was 
California 14, Clarion 8. 

In the second quarter Clarion scored after 
Elmer Schuetz intercepted a pass on the 
Cahfornia 45-yard line. Clarion scored in six 
plays, capped by Jim Kocan's 24-yard touch- 
down run. John Dorish missed the extra 
point. The score was California 14, Clarion 
14. Clarion scored again when they got the 
ball on the California 43yard line after a 
punt. They drove the 43 yiards in 11 plays 
with the touchdown coming on a 10-yard pass 
from Erdeljac to Larry McNulty. John Dorish 
kicked the extra point. The score at this 
time was California 14, Clarion 21. On the 
last play of the first half, Fred Wickstrom 
intercepted a California pass to stop the Vul- 
cans' drive. 

In the third quarter the teams traded the 
ball back and forth, with Clarion throwing 
away two opportunities to score. California 
finally broke the ice late in the quarter when 
they drove 81 yards in 11 plays for a touch- 
down. Petrucci ran the last 32 yards for 
the score. Zolak missed the extra point. The 
score at the end of the third quarter was 
California 20, Clarion 21. 

In the fourth quarter. Clarion drove from 
the California 24-yard line after an intercep- 
tion by Tom Humphrey to the one-yard line, 
only to lose the ball on a fumble. After 
a Wickstrom punt, California drove 80 yards 
in 13 plays with Petrucci going over from 
the one-yard line. Zolak missed the extra 
point, the score stood at California 26, Clarion 
21. The teams traded the ball back and forth 
after California intercepted two Erdeljac pas- 
ses, and the game ended with California on 
the Clarion one-yard line. 



Game Summary 



Player 

of the 

Week 




f TOM KOMENDA 

The coaching staff of the Golden Eagles 
football team has named Tom Komcnda as 
player of the week for his performance last 
Saturday against the Vulcans of California. 

Tom, standing six feet and weighing 215 
pounds, is the offensive right tackle. A grad- 
uate of Braddock, Tom is now in his sopho- 
more year at Clarion. An offensive lineman, 
one of the most overlooked players on the 
field, is often the key to a running game. 
Ilis ability to open holes for the runners 
or to stay back and protect the quarterback 
in a pass situation is essential in putting 
six points on the scoreboard. 

Coach Jacks, in citing hjjs reasons for pick- 
ing Tom, commented: "Tom gave us 100 
percent on blocking; he made our running 
game go. When we needed to pick up yard- 
age, we would run a play ri^t up Tom's 
back. He gave us good pass protection — very 
inspirational." 

Being only a sophomore. Tom Komenda 
will certainly be valuable in the offensive 
line for the next two years.

Nixon's the One at Clarion State College 



By ED WOZMAK 

President elect Richard Milhous Nixon won 
a clear-cut victory at Clarion State College 
as a record 1,228 students came out to vote 
last Tuesday. 

Mr. Nixon, whose national lead was much 
less, ran 18 percent ahead of his closest 
rival. Vice President Hubert Humphrey, in 
the campus election. Out of a total of 1,288 
votes, Mr. Nixon polled 571, or 46 percent, 
Mr. Humphrey received 342 or 28 percent, 
George Wallace received 143 or 12 percent. 



and Peace and Freedom Candidate Dick Gre- 
gory received 11 or .09 percent. 

A statistic of special interest was the 65 
votes or five percent of the students who 
voted for 'No Candidate." "No Candidate" 
was designated on the Clarion ballot as fol- 
lows; "I disagree with the positions of all 
candidates. My political beliefs and convic- 
tions are not represented in this election." 
"No Candidate" ran ahead of Dick Gregory, 
who was on the ballot, and write ins Nelson 
Rockefeller, Ted Kennedy, Barry Goldwater, 



William Fulbright, and Eugene McCarthy. 

Except for Humphrey's showing of 28 per- 
cent. Clarion's vote percentages for the other 
candidates compared favorably with the na- 
tional percentages. Mr. Nixon's national per- 
centage of 43 percent, was three percent 
less than his vote at Clarion. Mr, Wallace's 
national percentage of 13 percent was one 
percent more than his vote at Clarion. Mr. 
Humphrey polled a big 43 percent nationally 
while receiving only 28 percent here. 

Election results from other schools are as 



follows: Westminster College chose Richard 
Nixon by a huge 68 percent while giving 
Hubert Humphrey a mere 1.5 percent. S. T. 
A. G. Party candidate Pat Paul.'^cn ran a 
close third with 10 percent. Lock Haven Col- 
lege chose Richard Nixon by 47 percent or 
201 votes to Hubert Humphrey's 24 percent 
or 105 votes. Lock Haven's voting turnout 
was a very poor 424 out of 2,100 students. 
At Princeton University, an undergraduate 
election gave Hubert Humphrey the presi- 
dency with 39 percent of the vote. Mr. Nixon 



received :i8 pcrcciil and Dick Gregory 11 
percent. Clarion's voting turnout of 42 per- 
cent was very close to Princeton's 45 per- 
cent 

At Ponn State University, Hi percent of 
the students turned out to elect Nixon by 
a narrow 32 2 percent to 31.5 percent margin. 
George Wallace ran third with 10.2 percent. 

The studcnt.s ot Allegheny County Commun- 
ity College elected Hubert Humphrey by an 
overwhelming .53.6 percent to Richard Nixon's 



22.8 percent. George Wallace received 18.7 
percent of the vote. 

On the lighter side of Clarion's mock elec- 
tion were the write ins. Mr. Emmetl Graybill 
of the Political Science department. Presi- 
dent James Gemmell and Head Football 
Coach Al Jacks all got one vote. Woody 
Hayes, the Ohio State football coach, got 
three voles, and Pat Paul.sen had 43. Perhaps 
with more campaign funds and better party 
organizations, these candidates will do better 
in 1972!

University of Miami, which ended with a 
7-1 record and the first and filth place in- 
dividual speakers in the tournament. 

The power matching resulted in Miss Ber- 
key and Miss Ferguson being matched 
again.st last year's national runner-up, Butler 
University, in the fourth round. Clarion's 
team lost this round, and finished with a 
3-5 record, with wins over Miami, Northern 
Iowa, and University of Maryland, and losses 
to Butler, Florida, CCNY, Georgia, and Dru- 
ry. 

Junior Mary Lou McCauliff and senior Pat 
Dobson had a 4-4 record in the Emory tourna- 
ment with wins over University of Michigan, 
University of North Carolina, Indiana State, 
and Central Michigan, and losses to Navy, 
Johns Hopkins, Auburn, and Dayton. 

Freshman Lillian Pfaff and sophomore Ca- 
thy Stinard had the best record for Clarion 
State in the varsity division at Susequehanna 
University, where they v/ere 3-2 with wins 
over Albany, Lock Haven, and West Chester, 
with losses to Thiel and University of Dela- 
ware. 

Sophomore Marilyn Roslanowick and fresh- 
man Karla Jantsch took the affirmative side 
in the varsity division at Susquehanna, and 
had a 2-3 record, with wins over the Univer- 
sity of Pittsburgh and Catholic University, 



and losses to Cortland, Washington and Lee, 
and University of West Virginia. 

In the novice division at Susquehanna, 
freshman teams of Jim Rarick, Judy Mc- 
Auley, Al Carraway, and Diane Schultheiss 
each finished with 2-3 records. 



Pre-Regislration 
Has Been Changed 

Clarion has changed its pre-registration 
procedure. In the past only advisors were 
given copies of courses. However, this year 
students also have access to lists of avail- 
able courses, and to copies of pre-registration 
procedures. Also, students will use their so- 
cial security numbers, not their student num- 
bers, for filling out pre-registratibn ^orms. 
Any student who does not have a social secur- 
ity number should obtain an application for 
one from Dr. Gray, Dean of Academic Af- 
fairs. 

Pre-registration for the second semester 
will be conducted Monday through Friday. 
Those students who fail to pre-register during 
the week will be dropped from the enroll- 
ment list and their place will be given to 
an incoming student. It is the student^s re- 
sponsibility to arrange to meet with his ad- 
visor to fill out pre-registration forms. If 
any student does not know who his advisor 
is, contact Dr. King in Room 56, Peirce Sci- 
ence Center. In the case of a schedule con- 
flict in which it is impossible for a student 
to meet with his advisor, the student should 
go to the Office of Academic Affairs. 



OPINION POLL 



On Wednesday 

Dame Margaret Patricia Horn.sby -Smith, 
Privy Councillor for the past nine years, 
and one of England's busiest "women on 
the move," will speak here on Wednesday 
at 8 in Peirce Auditorium, under the aus- 
pices of the British Culture Center of Clarion 
State College. The subject of her lecture will 
be "English-American Relations." 

Dame Patricia has carved a notable career 
for herself in Uie tumultuous worlds of Brit- 
ish politics and big business. Educated at 
Richmond county school. Dame Patricia be- 
gan working as a shorthand-typist at the 
age of 16 to support her invalid mother. 
Her interest in politics waxed early; at 17 
she was the youngest member of the Con- 
servative Party's flying Squad of Speakers; 
and shortly after the onset of World War 
II, she became secretary to Lord Seborne, 
Minister of Economic Warfare. 

Described as "One of the Best . . ." 

Her drive, which led Harold Macrailia;» 
to describe her as "one of the best, if not 
probably the very best, candidates in 
the entire country," quickly led her to 
some of her country's highest governmental 
posts. In 1950, Dame Patricia was elected 
M.P. for Chlslehurst, Kent, a position which 
she held untU 1966. In 1951, Winston Churchill 
appointed her Pariiamentary Secretary to the 
Health Ministry; and less than two years 
after taking her seat in the House of Com- 
mons she received her first junior office at 
the Ministry of Health, making her the young- 
est woman ever to receive a ministerial ap- 
pointment. Six years later, Harold Macmillan 
promoted her to joint Under-Secretary of 
State to the Home Office; she was then trans- 
ferred to the Pensions Ministry, was made 
Privy Councillor in 1959, and a Dame of 
the Order of the British Empire in 1961. 

1961 also marked Dame Patricia's en- 
trance into the world of business in her work 
for Cortaulds, England's giant textile firm. 
Dame Patricia has taken coordinated collec- 
tions, specifically chosen for the appropriate 
market, from a number of the company's 
subsidiaries, to Warsaw, Moscow, and Swe- 
den. She is a director of the Sutton Har- 
bour Improvement Co., and a member of 
the board of the Andre Bernard Company, 
England's leading hairdressing salon-owning 
company. In May of 1968 she was named 
vice-chairman of the Apparel Group of the 
Briti.sh Week being held in Tokyo in Septem- 
ber 1969. 



CALL Editors 



Before Enthusiastic Audience 



On Wednesday evening, the large and 
enthusiastic audience that had braved the 
elements in order to attend the opening con- 
cert of the Clarion State College Symphony 
Orchestra gave the lie to Verlalne's famous 
poem: 

"II pleure dans mon coeur 
Come il pleut sur la ville . . ."' 

("My heart is weeping 
As rain falls on the town . . .") 

On the contrary, ail hearts present were 
singing, despite the rain outside, as a result 
of the outstanding evening of music presented 
by the orchestra and the featured student 
.soloists under the direction of Edward Ron- 
cone, assistant professor of music. The mu- 
sicians responded nohly to the precise and 
sensiti\c baton of their conductor in a varied 
program of symphonic fare, ranging from 
the baroque to the romantic to the contem- 
posary. 

Gluck's overture to "Tphigenia Hi Aulos" 
opened tne program with dignity and lyri- 
cism. From the first downbeat, which brought 
forth a rich outpouring of string tone, it 
was im Tiediately apparent that the CSC or- 
chestra has grown immeasurably since its 
inception last year. As the evening went on, 
this became increasingly evident. 



The Vivaldi "Concerto in A Minor," which 
followed the Gluck, proved a sparkling con- 
trast to the broad, measured lines of the over- 
ture. This work, written for two violins and 
small baroque orchestra, presented a.s solo- 
ists Lynne Mason and Nicolas Rutherford, 
who are students of David Mallory, assistant 
professor of music. 

Their playing was secure and pleasing, 
clean technically, completely in character as 
to interpretation, well synchronized with one 
another and with the accompanying group. 
The result wa.s a line display of ensemble 
feelinjf, most satisfying to the listener. 

A transition to the present then ensued, 
but did not shock; tor Robert Starer's "Dal- 
ton Set" (a group of short sketches written 
ih various styles) managed the jump from 
pre-classic lo today quite painlessly. This 
was largely due to the first piece "Prelude," 
a cunning paraphra.^c of Bach's majestic or- 
gan preludes, in which the brass ahd wood- 
wind chclr.i played to full sonorous effect. 
"Serenade" superimpospd a romantic melody 
over a humorous accompaniment; "Waltz" 
was a cliarmin.:? pastiche of Old VieuLa; 
"March" brought everyone into the fun with 
an exotic-sounding processional. Mr. Roncone 
conducted these amusing morsels with a deft 



Women to Visit Mens Dorms? Attend Conference 
Some Men Like the Idea 



Forest Manor has recently passed a ruling 
allowing an open house every Sunday after- 
noon in Forest Manor South. Other men's 
residence halls do not have such rules. It 
is more or less frowned upon for women 
to visit, even to go into the lobbies of, Mc- 
Kean, Ballentine and Wilson Halls. If the 
house council of Forest Manor has taken 
such an independent action, why is it not 
possible for the other men's dorms to do 
the same? This prompted us to ask the follow- 
ing question in our opinion poll: "Would you 
approve of a ruling which provides visiting 
hours for women at men's dormitories? Why 
or why not?" Here were some reactions: 

John Schellenberger: "Yes, I approve, be- 
cause men get tired of going to women's 
dorms to see their girls. By going to the 
boys' dorm every so often, it would be a 
change of atmosphere. 

Becky Soules: "Yes, I approve of it. If 
you don't make such a ruling, girls will wind 
up in mens' dorms anyway, so why not make 
it legal'" 

Ray Warco: "Sure. But only at certain 
hours. But this should only be done for short 
periods of time because guys like a lot of 
privacy, lljey have such a system at Slippery 



Rock, and it works, and it's accepted really 
well by both men and women students. 

Phil Kennedy: "I'd approve of that for 
several reasons. If a girl and guy want to 
watch television, they can do so in the men's 
dorm if they don't like what everyone is 
watching at the other dorms. It would be 
less crowded and less noisy if students were 
more spread out. This would give more places 
for people to go. It would also make a guy 
feel a girl has some interest in him if a 
girl came to visit him." 

Al Serf: "Yes. Guys have visiting pri- 
vileges at women's dorms, and Ralston has 
hours for visiting in the rec-room, so why 
shouldn't the men have similar hours to visit 
in rec-rooms of men's dorms? 

John Cable: "Yes. they have it at other 
schools. Why shouldn't we have it here? Our 
school is growing; this is another sign of 
progress." 

Forest Manor can have open house, wo- 
men's dormitories can have open house if 
approved by house council. If the men wish 
visiting hours maybe they could decide upon 
an open house in their own dorms. The wo- 
men of Clarion State CoUege would certainly 
back such an action. 



In New York City 

The Call editors, Carolyn Welesko, editor 
in chief, and Sandy Diesel, news editor, left 
last Thursday, October 31, for a three-day 
conference of the Associated Collegiate Press 
and National Council of College Publications 
Advisers. Accompanying them was the Call 
adviser. Dr. Richard Redfem. The conference 
was held at the Waldorf-Astoria in New York 
City. 

The purpose of the conference was for the 
1,200 collegiate journalists to exchange op- 
inions about the mass media and to appraise 
the different campus publications. 

There were students present from all over 
the nation as well as Canada. 

At the conference, special sectional meet- 
ings and short course programs were held 
for both the students and advisers of the 
newspaper and the yearbook staffs. Special 
guest speakers such as Betsy Wade, copy 
editor of the New York Times; Professor 
Bill Ward, University of Nevada; and Bob 
Eddy, publisher and editor of Hie Hartford 
Courant, addressed the various meetings and 
programs. 

A luncheon sponsored by the Ford Motor 
Company on Sat\irday, November 2, ended 
tbe conference. 




hand and a subtly understated awareness 
of the tongue-in-cheek attitude of the com- 
poser. 

The final number of the first half of the 
concert was the first movement of Mendels- 
sohn's "Concerto in Q Minor" for piano and 
orchestra. The soloist, Jeanne Matlack, a stu- 
dent of Annette Roussel-Pesche, played with 
all the brilliance and grace characteristic 
of the piano works of this early Romantic 
composer. Miss Matlack possesses the happy 
combination of poise and vitality. Her tech- 
nical dexterity, projection of phrase and nu- 
ance, plus an effortless blending with the 
orchestral ensemble produced a well-rounded 
performance of sterling quality. It is to be 
noted that the accompaniments to both 
concert! programmed were excellent. 

The two contemporary works played after 
intermissibn gave solid proof that it is possi- 
ble to be melodic and appealing, as well 
as atonal and cacaphonic. Certainly, the Bar- 
tok "Roumanian Folk Dances, " as interpret- 
ed with warmth and charm by Mr. Roncone 
and the orchestra, are ^thoroughly enchant- 
ing. Deserving of spectal mention for the 
solo work therein displayed are Kenneth 
Show, clarinet, Linda Harriger, flute, and 
Mr. Mallory, the codfcertiXiaster. 

The "Symphony No. 2" by Giannini pro- 
vided a spectacular close to a beautiful pro- 
gram. The composer has written marvelous- 
ly for the instruments, making possible an 
endless variety of tonal and musical expres- 
sion. The allegro movement is a contrast 
in large columns of'^iardeht sonority punc- 
tuated by sparse, episodic transitional pas- 
sages. In the adagio the orchestra's wood- 
winds and brasses melted together glowing 
harmonies which were embellished by the' 
lyricism of the strings. The resultant impres- 
sionistic quaUty was sparked by a lovely, 
recurrent oboe theme, played with a distinc- 
tively haunting quality by Richard Abel. The 
final allegro brought forth all the orchestral 
resources with pulsating rhythms, swirling 
colors, contrasting dynamics all building to 
a stirring apex. 

And, as Joan Douglass, the able tympanist, 
struck the very last sound to be heard, a 
volley of applause and bravos burst forth 
from the large, enthusiastic audience. Their 
kudos were well-merited by the fine orches- 
tra, the distinguished conductor, and the tal- 
ented young soloists who had given them 
a uniquely rewarding musical experience.

Speaking 



We ^rc Still No. 1 in Our Hearts 



Wc, at Clarion, have recently suf- 
fered an insult to our pride. On Octo- 
ber 26, our football team lost to Cali- 
fornia State College. This game, as 
wo all well know, determined whether 
or not we would be participating in 
the State championship game. 

Such a loss is not an easy one for 
students who are habitual winners in 
football. Our last two' seasons have 
given us a powerful image and have 
given our rivals reason to respect and 
to fear our mighty team. We did not 
fail thorn; instead our team continued 
to win — continued to assert their su- 
periority. 

Rut now that we have been de- 
feated, it is easy to note that the stu- 
dents of CSC are not poor losers. The 
team is not being condemned, but 
rather they are being congratulated 
for the fine record they have achieved 
so far this season. 

A defeat for Clarion did not mean 
a downfall in strength. The team, in 
fact, made a magnificent comeback in 
last Saturday's game against Shippens- 
buig State College. Students cheered 
the team on to victory because the 
students cared. At the start of that 



game, the entire campus sensed an air 
of dignity about the team and about 
the students; Clarion's strength was 
not to be undermined by a single con- 
ference loss. 

One of the many signs that proud- 
ly waved on campus this past week 
read; "Number Two in the State, but 
still Number One in our hearts." This 
is perhaps the best summary of how 
the students really feel about their 
team. In many ways, a loss in foot- 
ball (even an important loss) does not 
mean defeat. We are still tough, we 
are still respected, and we are still 
proud of our team. 

We may not be looking forward 
to a State victory celebration or even 
a section title, but we are still holding 
our heads high with the satisfaction of 
knowing that our team did their best 
for us. We could not ask for more. 

Every student on this campus still 
has the right to say, "We're number 
one!" as strongly as ever before — in 
our hearts we know that we still are. 
After all, isn't that what really mat- 
ters?

Clarion Student Senate Decides 
To Participate in the Programs 
Of National Students Association 



Q*,ot^tv^ WtiA^i?r 



The Student Senate, during their regular 
meetin}* on October 30, decided to actively 
participate in the programs established by 
the United States National Students Associa- 
tion. The Student Senate feels that it is to 
the ad\antage of the Clarion student body 
to receive the benefits made available by 
the USNSA. 

Dick Mears was appointed by Tom Paolino, 
president of Student Senate, as Clarion's NSA 
coordinator, whose job it is to correspond 
with the NSA office. 

At present, the NSA Service Division spon- 
sors seven programs. They are Educational 
Travel, Inc., USNSA Insurance Trust, Stu- 
dent Government Information Service, Cul- 
tural Program, Alliance for Campus Talent, 
NSA Record Club, and College Calendar and 
Handbook. 

Educational Travel, Inc. is designed as a 
means of providing low cost overseas travel 
and tour programs for students. ETI's non- 
profit status accounts for the low costs and 
has made ETI the most widely used student 
travel organization in the U.S. 

ETI's program is similar to those of the 
larget- airlines where the student buys a half 
fare Id card. ETI issues the student the In- 
ternational Id card at the cost of three dol- 
lars. There are several difference, however, 
between the ETI program and those of the 
airl.nos. First, reductions through the ETI 
program range from 50 percent off the going 
rntes ob lodgings, food, museums, and so 
forth, to 70 percent discount on special stu- 
dent charter airplane flights, boats, and 
trains.^ The airlines usually provide just the 
50 percent off for the airplane trip. Second, 
ETI reductions are for all regular flights 
vvhcreae'^ the airlines program is designed 
on a standy-by basis. 

When applying for the Id card, the student 
may also order the Official Guide to Europe. 
This bo<^ lists all the discounts available 
to America|| students as well as containing 
the only complete listing of all student char- 
ter flights within Europe. It also describes 



train and bus timetables for the continent. 

As a reference source and planning guide, 
NSA publishes The Traveling Student, which 
highlights the times and places of European 
"happenings" such as the Mardi Gras; pros 
and cons of tour travel, camping in Europe; 
summer study programs; scholarships; and 
so forth. ;^ 

ETI also has a complete tour service for 
the student interested in seeing famous EW* 
opean sights. The tours rang« in . duration.** 
from a few hours to 15 days. 

Holders of the Id card als» can obtain 
substantially lower rates for the rental or 
purchase of cars while in Europe. In this 
program, the student can buy a tax-free car 
at discount prices in Europe and use It during 
his stay and ship it back to the U. S. 

This is but one of the services provided 
by USNSA. Information on the other six pro- 
grams will be provided in future issues of 
the Clarion Caltt. 

The USNSA provides excellent o[»portunities 
for the student, l^e their program extensive- 
ly for fantastic savings and entertainment! 

Art Films Presented 

Art films have come to Clarion State Col- 
lege at last. The Audio-Visual Communica- 
tions Department is presenting a series of 
films designed to form a moving montage «•• 
of the motion picture industry. The wide var- 
iety of films depicts filmmaking as an art 
which uses sight, sound and time as its ele- 
ments. 

Last night's showing gave a sampling of 
the types of films students and faculty can 
view every other Thursday evening at 8 in 
Peirce Auditorium: "The Golden Age of Com- 
edy," "The Great McGongle," "Fatal Glass 
of Beer," and "Hurry, Hurry" (two versions, 
one by W. C. Fields and the other by Sper- 
matozoa). Discussions are held after the mo- 
vies for anyone interested. 



Was Tuesday's Mock Election LettcrS tO the EdUor 



A Turning Point on Campus? 



I 



The students of Clarion deserve to 
be commended on the over-all turnout 
for the mock presidential election held 
on Tuesday. The total number of stu- 
dents .who voted was 1,228. This is 
the largest number, ever to be tallied 
at any election, whether for Kcme- 
coming queen or for student officers 
such as class officers and student sen- 
ators. It is gratifying to know that the 
students ?'e finally taking ?n interest 
in campus events and activities. 

In comparison with Lock Haven, 
Clarion's turnout for the mock elec- 
tion was far superior. In the balloting 
at Lock Haven, 424 students Out of an 
approximate 2,100 students cast their 
vote. In an undergraduate poll c6ti- 
ducted at Princeton University in Oc- 
tober, 1,374 votes were tallied. This 
number comprised 45 percent of the 
undergraduate population. Clarion's 
percentage of students voting was ap- 
proximately 42 percent. This percen- 
t.^ge proves that the. students of Clar- 
ion are as interested fn politics and the 
outside world as is one of the most pro- 
gressive universities in this country. 

If the students of Clarion contin- 
ue to support these activities sponsor- 
ed by various groups and organizations, 
there will be no limiting of the changes 
possible. An interested student body 
is needed before changes can be made 
in any facet of our academic and so- 
cial lives. 

If the increase of student support 



shown in the past weeks continues to 
grow, we, the students of Clarion, may 
be given the opportunities ^nd advan- 
tages we are clamoring for. We may 
be allowed a greater voice in determin- 
ing the course of student affairs. But 
support must be continually manifest- 
ed. Now that it has been proven that 
there is an interested student body, a 
student body that cares, don't disap- 
point the editors of the Call and your- 
i^elves by retreating into shells of un- 
interest. 

It is interesting to note the ser- 
iousness with which the students of 
Clarion voted. This election had no 
major significance in the outcome of 
the national election, yet the students 
voted as if it were the national elec- 
tion. There were relatively few votes 
for men outside the election. Some 
Students feared that Pat Paulsen would 
win here at Clarion, but the students 
again proved that they are intelligent, 
interested citizens and that, given the 
opportunity they can act in a respon- 
sible manner. 

The editors of the Call are proud 
to be witnesses of the academic and 
social awakening here at Clarion, and 
we, with the support of the students, 
will try and bring about the changes 
needed. We hope that this is indeed 
a favorable indication of a growing 
student interest on our campus.

A Highway and a Low 



Life i.s but a journey 
Along two winding roads. 
The first is called the Highway; 
The second, called the Low. 

Some choose to take the Highway, 
With all its sights so fair, 
To wonder at its glamor 
And its sweetly scented air. 

They reach their destination 
And look on in despair. 
They remove tlieir tinted glasses . . 
Their world'.s no longer there. 

To these falls sad displeasure. 
They li'.'e a life of woe. 
I';!t what happened to the travelers 
That chose to take the Low? 

They start with many struggles, 



The way i.s rough and steep. 
But they dare to keep on going 
When obstacles they meet. 

They too conclude their journey. 
And much to their surprise 
Tliey find a world of happiness 
And rosey tinted skies. 

But, unlike the Highway 
This world will never end. 
And they live on in happiness 
V/ith Kindness, Love, and Friends. 

' So you see, my fellow traveler, 
Tliere's a highway and a low 
Ard each man must decide 
The way his heart shall go.

*CalV Policy Questioned 

Editor, the Call: 

In regards to the column included in the 
Clarion Call, a Peek at Greeks. As everyone 
knows, this column is written by members 
of Greek organizations, for members of Greek 
clubs, and all other individuals interested 
in their activities. The column was designed 
for Greeks to inform the campus of activities 
occurring within these organizations, and not 
only the activities but also an entertaining 
side of the Greeks. However, as of this semes- 
ter, this does not appear true. Cutting and 
rewriting of articles by the paper's editors 
has, we feel, reduced this column to a point 
where its articles are almost as dull as the 
cartoons included in the paper. 

It would be fascinating to know if the re- 
writer and cutter of these articles is, or 
is not a member of a Greek organization. 
An example of this person's work is noted 
in the column handed in for printing by the 
brotherhood of Phi Sigma Epsilon, for the 
November 1 issue. Congratulations were ex- 
tended, by the brothers, to President Gem- 
mell on his daughter's wedding. This gesture 
of friendliness was not deemed "suitable" 
to be printed into the article, on the Peek 
at Greeks. The editor, evidently, does not 
realize the importance of this column to the 
Greeks as a "mouthpiece" to the public. 
This article is a voice for the fraternities 
and sororities, and the rewritings and cut- 
tings have lowered this articulation. 

We would not be surprised if this letter 
to the editor would be rewritten, cut, and 
reduced. We extend an "urgent" invitation 
to our fellow Greek members to help "save 
our column." 

BROTHERS OF PHI SIGMA EPSILON 

THE EDITOR'S REPLY * ~- ' 

The student newspaper should contain 
newsworthy material for the entire student 
body. No single article should be written 
exclusively for one group or one ofgAniidtidh. 

The Greek column is written by th^jGreek 
organizations, but it should be written' for 
all students. The column therefpre, should, 
as you say, inform "the cafmpus of activities 
occurring within these organizations," and it 
does. 

The only items that are cut are lliose \k%\[ 
are not speciflc Greek material, such as the 
wedding congratulations, or items that:a^o 
not clear to the bulk of Clarion's students. 
In addition, the only rewritten articles are 
those poorly written or grammatically incor- 
rect items. 

The editor does incidently realize that the 
Greek news is a mouthpiece to the public, 
and for this reason, would like to see more 
news included in this article which informs 
rather than implies personal comments. 

Most of the Greek Organizations have com- 
plied with our news policy on Greek news, 
and for this, we commend you. You have 
helped to raise the standards of your paper 
as well as to inform your fellow students 
of your activities. 



Validity of Vulgarity 

Dear Editor: 

Sigh . . . Sigh . . . 

It seems that every week a letter appears 
in The Call denouncing student apathy and 
lack of school spirit. 1 might as well keep 
the trend going. 

Tau Kappa Epsilon and its pledges have 
made a point to show the student body and 
the football team that we are behind them. 
One of the standard methods is the hanging 
of signs on campus proclaiming quips of 
support for the Golden Eagles. 

On Wednesday (Nov. 6), a sign appeared 
on Egbert Hall's front porch reading, "TKE 
Sez Kick Some Ass." My, my, but it must 
have caused some excitement — although we 
feel it was not within the student body as 
much as it was within the walls of Egbert. 
The time was not even taken to untie the 
ropes that held it. Yank and rip— it was 
down ! 

We really have our doubts as to the harm 
that this word has produced on campus. If 
it truly offended someone, we apologize. But 
I hasten to add that we feel the only offend- 
ing that was committed was within a stif- 
ling, dictatorial, antiquated administration. 

Keep yanking and ripping up there. You 
must keep the apathy and lack of spirit go- 
ing—maybe just to protect your own posi- 
tions. 

Respectfully, GARY S. WILSHER 

THE EDITOR'S REPLY 

In answer to the two letters above, it should 
be noted that two opposing views are evident 
of school spirit. Two students are defending 
signs in support of diminishing apathy; an- 
other student is questioning the means by 
which school spirit is encouraged. 

SUEely a medium can be reached which 
satishes all students. The very fact that 
Coach Al Jacks disapproves of the use of 
vulgarity for team support should mean 
sopiething to the students. 

An effective sign does not necessarily have 
to .be |crude. In fact, a sign based on "or- 
igirirflily and wit" as stated above would pro- 
, bab^>; receive a better over-all effect. 

Wfe agree that the administration should not 
he. ".stifling, dictorial, and antiquated." but 
the students .should make efforts to prevent 
such activities by being reasonable in their 
judgements. 

Signs should not be censored, but shouldn't 
students be .stimulated in a more appealing 
warv? It would be sad to think that Clarion's 
students need vulgar signs to denounce ap- 
athy. 

The Big Rush for Grades 

Editor, the Call: 

Slowly but surely, the glazed expressions 
on the faces of the student body are beginning 
to fade. Gradually, also, the effects of sleep- 
less nights are subsiding due to the restful 
atmosphere provided in the Social Founda- 
tions. Physical Science, and mo.st other clas- 
ses which have already settled back into 
a usual state of lethargy. 



Yes, once again the students of CSC are 
recovering from the regular "pre-comment" 
exam season. In keeping with the tradition, 
the more thoughtful members of the faculty 
have done their best to schedule their exams 
as close to the deadline as possible. The 
consistency of this practice is reflected in 
the quantity of discarded No Doz wrappers 
and in the faces of red-eyed students floating 
from class to class. i 

It is amazing how many professors have 
forgotten their own experience as struggling 
college students. They cry, "Knowledge is 
what you are here for, and not grades." 
Why then do these same instructors fail to 
give students a break when it comes to test- 
ing and grades? ApparenUy they have little 
use for these "worthless symbols," so why the 
big rush to get a grade in the books? 

My advice to the students is to keep those 
cold tablets and start hitting those books. 
Remember that pre-Thanksgiving exam sea- 
son is just around the corner. What's the 
difference anyway? It's only a grade. 

Red-Eyed and Failing 

Cafeteria Lines Mobbed 

Editor, The Call: 

I am writing this letter in regards to those 
people who feel they are of a privileged 
class. This class is composed of those stu- 
dents who feel that they are permitted to 
walk to. "the head of the cafeteria Hnes, push 
their way in, and never have to suffer the 
pains of standing in lines. 

I realize that nothing can be done about 
this situation, but I also feel that it should 



be brought to the attention of these students. 
In some instances, it may be necessary to 
"cut" in hne, but for the same students 
to do this every day is ridiculous. ' 

The impression these students create is 
nauseous. The food is not of that high quality 
to be the catalyst of this reaction on the 
part of the students, but every day at 4:50 
the mad rush to the front of the line creates 
this illusion.

Camp Blue Jay Serves As 
Job Corps Center; Clarion 
Sends Student Teachers 



Venango News 



Camp Blue Jay, a job corps conservation 
center, is located about 30 miles north of 
Clarion in Marienville. This center is signifi- 
cant to Clarion State College, because four 
students from the Special Education Depart- 
ment are assigned to student teach at this 
center every semester for a nine-week period. 




JACK MATUSKY, CSC student teach- 
er, illustrates reading levels to one of 
Blue July's Corpsinen. 

Camp Blue Jay was started in April of 
1965, and was one of the firsi of its kind. 
In addition, it is the only center of its kind 
i" Western Pennsylvania. The purpose of this 
job corps center is to train underprivileged 
males, who range between the ages of 16 
and 21 years of age. These young men are 
unemployed, unskilled, and are usually school 
drop-outs with little educational background. 
The average entering corpsman has a read- 
ing level of third grade— fourth month, and 
has a limited background in mathematics. 
In addition, the average corpsman is nine 
pounds underweight upon entering, and has 
received no medical attention ic his lifetime. 

The average stay of corpsmen is nine 
months, but many stay as long as two years. 



Eight out of ten of those who enter and 
stay for at least nine months leave the center 
with a substantial gain both academically 
and in some spe'ciflc vocational training. 

Corpsmen are placed in a program which 
alternates in weekly schedules- of on-the-job 
training and formal education. The education 
program consists of training in reading, ma- 
thematics, physical education, driver educa- 
tion, and general study of the world of work. 
All corpsmen work at individual rates and 
levels, and each progresses according to 
individual accomplishment. The work pro- 
gram consists of training in carpentry, auto- 
motive repair, cooking, and operation of hea- 
vy equipment. 

The job corps center is sponsored by the 
United States Forest Center and is part of 
a national program to help the underprivil- 
eged. . A staff of 32 act as administrative 
heads and instructors, and every staff mem- 
ber serves as a counselor to the corpsmen. 

Approximately 120 corpsmen are now in 
training at Camp Blue Jay. These corpsmen 
are housed in five dormitories on the center 
grounds in Allegheny National Forest. Other 
buildings include a dining hall, gymnasium, 
classroom buildings, and an administrative 
building. All buildings are maintained by the 
corpsmen and staff. 

Corpsmen graduate into jobs, military ser- 
vice, go back to public schools, or into more 
specialized training. 



Spotlight On 
Other Campuses 

Westminster College- 
Richard Nixon was chosen as the presiden- 
Ual favorite at Westminster College by a 
majority of 68%, Hubert Humphrey running 
second with 15%, Paulsen third with 5%, 
and Wallace with 5%. 
Lock Haven State College- 
Lock Haven students "elected" Richard 
Nixon as the next president of the United 
States. In the balloting, only 424 students out 
of 2100 cast their vote. The results were: 
Nixon 201, Humphrey 105, George Wallace 
43, Dick Gregory 30, and Pat Paulsen 26. 
Edinboro State College— 

Edinboro State College is in the process of 
revising their present cut system. The 
changes proposed are that upperclassmen 
would not be penalized for class absence, 
that freshmen would be bound to the present 
cut system, similar to that at Clarion, and 
that the instructor, at his discretion, would 
be permitted to give a student zero if the 
student missed a quiz, test or lab. 
Shippensburg State College— 

Shippensburg is m the process of trying to 
abolish women's hours. The students at SSC 
contend that women are mature enough to 
formulate their own hours. They feel that 
the students are being sheltered and not 
adequately prepared for the world in which 
they will live.

is a hayride. Many of the freshmen have 
also been talking about clearing a toboggan 
run and arranging co-ed swimming at the 
YMCA.

On Friday, October 25, Barb Winkler was 
elected as a new Freshman class representa- 
tive to the Student Senate. Barb will take 
the place of Pat Moser and will act as chair- 
man of the Cultural Committee. 

Vietnam is Discussed 

A war in Vietnam that has been shelved 
as a major issue during much of the pre- 
sidential race came alive at a meeting of 
the Philosophes, Thursday, October 24, at 
Venango Campus. 



Participants in the discussion voiced dis- 
may that the Vietnam war, a vital issue 
in their minds, had been basically ignored 
hy all three candidates. 

Mr. Jay Van Bruggen, Associate Profes- 
sor of Political Science at Clarion State Col- 
lege, a gue.st participant, felt that there was 
no real issue between the candidates dealing 
with Vietnam. He said that other than Demo- 
cratic candidate Vice President Hubert Hum- 
phrey's coming out in favor of a bombing 
halt, all three presidential candidates were 
in agreement with the Johnson administra- 
tion's handling of the war in Vietnam. 

At one point during the talk about the 
Vietnamese situation a member of the group 
voiced an opinion that since the United States 
was in Vietnam our poUcy should be "fight 
to win." This attitude immediately sparked 
a controversy. Various participants in the 
discussion dispelled this view saying that the 
people of one country cannot occupy another 
country unless they are wanted. Along with 
this problem, a question of priorities was 
raised. 

Crawford Moderates 

Moderator Mr. Alistair Crawford, Assistant 
Professor of Social Sciences at Venango Cam- 
pus, questioned how the United States could 
wage a war in Vietnam while U.S. cities 
were burning. 

As a result of this discussion on Vietnam, 
some participants concluded that the U.S. 
should reorganize her foreign policy and per- 
haps through economic means stop commun- 
ism. 

The previous articles in the Call written 
about panel discussions on the main campus 
indicate the same pattern of participant re- 
action on law and order that was expressed 
during this meeting. Mr. Van Bruggen, com- 
menting on law and order, said that such 
an issue as this, is a complex issue dealing 
with four different phenomena; (1) an in- 
crease in crime according to FBI statistics, 
which arc misleading, (2) riots in the big 
cities, a totally different matter from crime 
in the streets, (3) campus demonstrations, 
and (4) crime in the streets. All of the areas 
of the law and order issue, Mr. Van Biniggen 
pointed out, are different kinds of problems 
with different solutions. Mr. Van Bruggen 
concluded that "law and order" is a phoney 
issue because the presidency has no power 
in dealing with local law enforcement 

Master of Education

E. Hansen recently visited the Clarion cam- 
pus and met with the placement officer to 
help students understand the vast opportun- 
ities in Pennsylvania brought about by the 
tremendous growth in industry during the 
last few years. 

Card are available to request packets of 
information on Pennsylvania opportunities; 
these same cards will also be sent to a 
computer which will automatically send the 
names to over 4,000 different Pennsylvania 
industries. These cards can be picked up 
at the placement office in the Administration 
Building.

Workshop is Planned; 
Differing Cultures 
Will Discuss Problems 



An Intercultural Workshop, to be located 
in or near Pittsburgh, is scheduled for De- 
cember 26-29. It will include a group of 3.5 
African Students sponsored by the U.S. De- 
partment of Agriculture. Upperclass or grad- 
uate American students of all races are need- 
ed to participate in the program. A few par- 
tial travel grants will be available to parti- 
cularly needy students who live outside Wes- 
tern Pennsylvania. 

It is the purpose of the Intercultural Com- 
munications Workshop to bring together a 
number of individuals representing differ- 
ent cultures to consider communication pro- 
blems among people of differing cultural 
backgrounds. Most of the time will be devot- 
ed to small group discussions in which the 
participants will have an opportunity to ex- 
amine their own experiences and problems 
in intercultural communications; some time, 
however, will be given to lectures, exercises 
and films. 

Any CSC student who qualifies and is in- 
terested in attending this workshop should 
contact Dr. Konitzky, who is liaison officer 
for the Regional Council for International 
Education. 

Karasek Served 



As Moderator 



Eugene Kara.sek, assistant professor of His- 
tory, recently participated in a History For- 
um in Pittsburgh, which was conducted by 
the History Department of Duquesne Univer- 
sity. 

Mr. Karasek was the moderator for the 
topic, "Western Statesmen and Germany: Be- 
fore and After World War I," which was 
one of the ten areas covered during the four 
sessions of the two-day forum. Other areas 
discussed were Moslem Europe in the Mid- 
dle Ages, Twentieth Century American For- 
eign Policy, Elizabethan Politics, Bureaucra- 
cy—East and West, Historiography, Ancient 
History, American Constitutional History, 
Eastern Europe, and The Atlantic Trade. 

Main speaker was Arthur S. Link, editor 
of the Woodrow Wilson Papers, who is from 
Princeton University; his topic was "Wilson 
the Diplomatist in Retrospect." 

CSC Will Receive 
Matching Funds 

Clarion State College is one of 14 state- 
owned institutions of higher education to re- 
ceive matching funds from the Pennsylvania 
Higher Education Assistance Agency for 1968- 
69, with an amount of $81,037 allotted under 
the joint federal-state program. 

A total of $866,448 went to the state col- 
leges to enable these institutions to obtain 
available federal funds to provide financial 
assistance to needy and able students under 
the Educational Opportunity Grant, College 
Work-Study, and National Defense Student 
Loan programs. 

In August, PHEAA had announced that 
nearly $950,000 had been allocated by the 
General Assembly for matching funds. 

Kenneth R. Reeher, executive director of 
the PHEAA, said, "State monies used in 
the Educational Opportunity Grant program 
enable the college to secure three times the 
state advance in federal money which is used 
for grants to the low income student." 

"The state allocation for the College Work- 
Study program provides 20 percent of the 
student payroll and the federal government 
supplies the remaining 80 percent. Under the 
National Defense Student Loan program, a 
school may obtain ten times the state invest- 
ment. The availability of the state appropria- 
tion allows the maximum use of federal funds 
for Pennsylvania state-owned institutions," 
Mr. Reeher said. 

Each institution is responsible lor adminis- 
tration of the funds, selecting student reci- 
pients on the basis of financial need and 
academic promise. 

Faculty Senate 
Approves Change 
In Curriculum 

The Faculty Senate at a recent meeting 
approved a change in the business adminis- 
tration curriculum which will modify general 
education requirements. According to Dr. 
Daniel Shirey, chairman of the Senate, the 
purpose of the change is to substitute general 
blt>ck requirements in major discipline cate- 
gories by deleting references to specific cour- 
ses. 

The Senate also discussed a paper sub- 
mitted by Dean of Student Affairs conceraiag 
student rights and responsibilities. The paper 
was referred to the Student Affairs Cwnmit- 
tee for further study, and a recommendation 
was made that students on the constitutional 
committee of the Clarion Student Association 
be added to the Student Affairs Committee. 

The Senate also discussed the desirability 
of a curriculum committee and referred the 
matter to a committee for study and recom- 
mendations. 



U. S. Savings Bonds and Freedom Shares 
are "indestructible"— any that are lost, ^o- 
len, or destroyed will be replaced by the 
Treasury. 



Hun Judo Club 
Will Meet In 
Cleveland, Ohio 

The Clarion State College Hun Judo 
Club will be a member of a co-ed combina- 
tion team composed of the CSC Hun Judo 
Club, Jamestown, New York, and the Kit- 
tanning Judo Club. The three clubs will pro- 
vide a total of 50 contestants and will meet 
with the Greater Cleveland Judo Club, in 
Cleveland, Ohio. 

This will be the second occasion for the 
CSC Hun Judo Club's sixth year history, to 
enter into competition in the state of Ohio. 
The competition will be arranged according 
to three weight classes: 135 pounds, 175 
pounds, and unlimited, and also arranged 
according to four belt ranks: white, green, 
brown, and black. Mr. Harold Blanchard, 
the coach of the Forest City Judo Club, a 
very able black belt holder, is the host. The 
CSC Hun Judo Club will be presented by 
Professor P-Jobb, coach, and by Nick Gbur, 
team captain. The Jamestown, New York, 
team will be represented by Mr. Brad Won- 
derling, and the Kittanning Club by Mr. Har- 
old Keth. 

First and second place winners will re- 
ceive medals, and the team trophy will be 
taken by either Ohio or Pennsylvania. 

Enrollment Increases 
By 38 This Year 

Clarion State College enrollment for the 
1968-69 academic year stands at 3,203, an 
increase of 38 over last year, according to 
figures released this week by the Student 
Affairs office. 

Of this number, there were 684 men living 
in six residence halls and 1,251 women living 
in six residence halls on the Clarion campus. 

Students residing in state owned residence 
halls totaled 743, while those living in private 
residence halls on the Clarion and Venango 
campuses totaled 1,004 and 188, respectively. 

Clarion campus students living in fraternity 
houses totaled 79. Student teachers living off- 
campus in the various communities providing 
for their training numbered 346. 

Another 496 students were living off-campus 
in private homes or other facilities in Clarion 
and Venango. Commuters to the two cam- 
puses totaled 347. 

Art Students Producing 
Mural for Student Union 

Students enrolled in Art 551, Advanced Cre- 
ative Art, are producing a mural as part of 
their course work this semester. Following 
completion, the mural is to be placed in 
the Commons area of the Student Union. 

The idea of a wall painting originated with 
the class. It was felt that exploration of 
the mural form would be a valuable exper- 
ience for the group and also provide an op- 
portunity for a graduate contribution in help- 
ing to enrich College facilities. The class 
this semester includes Mrs. Margaret Oakes, 
a teacher in Brookville; Miss Linda Lee Wil- 
son, a teacher at Union Jt. Schools, Miss 
Patricia Howell, a teacher at Clarion-Lime- 
stone, Mrs. Carol Ann Chapman, an art teach- 
er in Knox, Miss Lynn Campbell, presently 
student teaching at Clarion, and Mr. Richard 
Mitchell who serves as art teacher of the 
Victory Heights Schools near Franklin. All 
students, except one, a graduate of a profes- 
sional art school, received their undergrad- 
uate work at Clarion. 

Instructor for the class is Professor Joseph 
R. Spence, Head of the Art Department. 

'J. B; Goes to Temple 

The College Readers are traveling this 
weekend to Temple University's Oral Inter- 
pretative Reading Festival. There John Solo- 
mon, George Hall, Steve Brezzo, Lorraine 
Martin, Ken Miller and Sue Albanesi will 
present their production of J. B. in competi- 
tion with a number of other institutions.

congratulate one ol their pledges, Cathy 
Stinard, who is a member of the CSC debat- 
ing team. She helped our team win three out 
of five matches last weeltcnd. 

This year we have a new system for 
pledges to get fraternity signatures. Each 
week the pledges must get at least fifteen 
sigoaturcs on their paddles from one par- 
ticular fraternity. The "AST Fraternity of 
the Week" is chosen from a random drawing. 
This past week, Theta Chi was picked. This 
coming week, the pledges. will have to obtain 
signatures from the brothers of Phi Sigma 
Gpsil<m. 

Our Founders Day Weekend was a com- 
plete success. A special thanks goes out to 
Sister Barbara Day, who planned the hay- 
ride. Nobody got much sleep Saturday night 
when the sisters and pledges had a slumber 
party at the AST suite in Forest Manor. The 
sisters want to thank Mr. P-Jobb for his in- 
teresting talk he gave Monday night at our 
banquet. 

Again this year, our social service project 
will be visiting the people at the Clarion 
Convalescent Home. We hope to bring a 
little happiness into their lives, especially 
during the holiday season.

them. 

Congratulations to the brothers who won 
their section of the intramural football lea- 
gue by thrashing the Sig Taus. 

To those who helped make our dance at 
Chandler a near success, thanks, and to

peciaUy Alpha Sigma Tau for their fine 
singing at our smoker. 

ALPHA SIGMA ALPHA 

The Alpha Sigs are getting into full swing 
with their money-making project. They want 
to remind everyone that perfume is the per- 
fect gift for any occasion, and that one dol- 
lar is never too much to spend on a friend. 

Congratulations go to Sister Betsy Feld- 
man, who was initiated last week into the 
language fraternity. Alpha Mu Gamma. 

This weekend many members of Alpha 
Sigma Alpha plan to spend some time with 
the Alpha Sigs from Slippery Rock. The sit- 
uation should be tense with the two chapters 
cheering for opposite teams, but the party 



Delta Lambda Tau Takes Root; 
Girls Are Busy Planning Activities 



This year CSC welcomes a new sorority 
to the campus. Hoping to get more girls in- 
terested in sororities, last May a group of 
girls asked the PanfielTenic Council fo"r per- 
mission to form a new sorority. The result 
was the founding of the Delta Lambda Tau 
on a local basis. A constitution was drawn 
up three weeks ago; now Delta Lambda Tau 
is a member of the Panhellenic Council, on 
probation until April or until they are nation- 
ally affiliated. At the present time, they are 
waiting to hear from the National Council of 
Alpha Xi Delta, which is considering an ex- 
pansion program to include Clarion State 
College. 

Now that the Delta Lambda Taus are or- 
ganized, they are planning activities. Each 
girl will spend several hours a month doing 
therapy with children with cerebral palsy. 
On Thursday the sorority will sponsor a 
slave day to raise money for their national 
charter. 

FHor to sorority fall rush, the Delta Lamb- 
da Taus consisted of 11 members who built 
a float for Homecoming and ushered as a

be fun. The Alpha Sigs hope to see strong 
student support at Clarion's last game. 

The best of luck goes to Sister Louise Kish 
and teammates from Clarion who play 
against the volleyball team of Indiana. 

DELTA ZETA 

Congratulations to a pledge. Donna Sacco, 
and to a sister, Pam Grantham, who were 
recently initiated into Delta Lambda chapter 
of Alpha Mu Gamma honorary language so- 
ciety. 

Our pledges are progressing nicely in their 
pledge period under the capable direction of 
Vicki Wilcox, pledge mistress. 

On October 30, the sisters of Delta Zeta 
went trick-or-treating in Clarion for the bene- 
fit of the patients at Polk Hospital. The girls 
collected many treats which were immedi- 
ately sent to the hospital, and which helped 
make a brighter day for the people there.

Sitar Concert 
Held Monday 
In CSC Chapel 

Nikhil Banerjee, India's great sitarist, and 
Kanai Dutta, his tabla player, performed last 
Monday in the Chapel. 

Banerjee's concert consisted of an Alap 
in 15 parts followed by slow and fast Gats. 
For this piece, the sitar and tabla were ac- 
companied by the tamboura. This piece lasted 
approximately 50 minutes. The second selec- 
tion was a drum solo performed by Kanai 
Dutta. The third piece was a light classical 
Raga performed on the sitar and tabla and 
accompanied by the tamboura. 

Nikhil Banerjee was born in Calcutta in 
1931. He received his first music lesson from 
his father, Jithendranath Banerjee, who is 
also a well-known sitarist. At the All Bengal 
Sitar Competition, Nikhil, although he was 
only nine, received the highest honor. In 1942, 
he played for the All India Radio for five 
years. Banerjee was accepted as a disciple 
and for seven years studied in Maihar with 
Allauddin Khan. 

In 1954, Banerjee's first appearance after 
his retreat was enthusiastically received. 
Since that time, Banerjee has been playing 
at concerts and festivals around the world. 

Banerjee is a professor at the Ali Akbar 
College of Music in Calcutta. 



THE SENIOR MEMBERS of the Clarion tjlate (Joilcge uoiaeu 
Eagles' Marching Band were honored last Saturday during 
the pre-game musical presentation at the annual Parents 
Day program. 



Band Honors Parents at Program 



The fangs of the cobra are smaller than 
those of the rattlesnake, but its venom is 
more toxic. 



Last Saturday, the members of the Ga- 
rion State College Golden Eagle Marching 
Band, along with the members of the football 
team, welcomed their parents to the campus 
for the annual Parents Day event. The 235 
parents of band Members were treated to cof- 
fee and donuts at 10 a.m., and lunch at 11:30 
at Chandler Dining Hall and finally the Cla- 
rion-Shippensburg football game. The mem- 
bers of the band presented their mothers 
with a pompon corsage decorated with blue 
and gold ribbons. The parents also witnessed 
a short practice' session of the band prior 
to the game. 

The pre-game musical presentation ack- 
nowledged the visiting parents with appro- 
priate formations and music. Before the play- 
ing of the Alma Mater the following seniors, 
making their fmal appearance at Clarion 
Memorial Stadium, were asked to step for- 
ward to be recognized: 

Ron Allaman, Carolyn Banjak, Donna Bic- 
kerstaff. Bill Chessman, Chris Daniels, Clint 
Doolittle, Brenda Falstick, Terry Graham, 
Janice Hoffman, Sam Itzoe, Ray Jenkins, 
Carolyn Johnson, Don Kress, Lenny Mitchell, 
Glenn Murphy, Margery Olson, Cortez Pur- 
year, Connie Schrecongost, Tom Seng, Dave 
Weihle, Donna \4^olfinger. 

The half-time performance was centered 
around a "New York theme" and featured 
special musical arrangements by Mr. Mit- 
chell and Mr. Hardin, both members of the 
Clarion music staff. During the playing of 
the final selection, "Slaughter on 10th Ave- 
nue," th-ee percussionists were featured solo- 
ists. They were Ken McNulty, a freshman

regarding the line marching and musical per- 
formance of the band, this final appearance 
of the season was received extremely well. 
The CSC Golden Eagle Marching Band is 
one of the largest marching units among 
the colleges and universities of Pennsylvania, 
outnumbered only by the Penn State Blue 
Band. This numerical factor, along with the 
excellent musical performances, places the 
Marching Band among 'he very best — a fact 
of which the students of Clarion should be 
proud. The familiar sight of the blue and 
white clad band members starting out from 
behind the stand to play "The Star-Spangled 
Banner," with a rich, sonorous, musical 
sound, has become a tradition during this 
marching band season. 

The pride with which the band members 
wear their uniforms is also extended to their 
musicianship, their conduct, and their ap- 
pearance. This, coupled with the fine leader- 
ship of Cortez Puryear, drum major, Janice 
Hoffman, Golden Girl, and Dorothy Lawry 
and Connie Schrecongost, co-head majorettes, 
made the 1968 marching band season the 
best in the history of the band.

Clarion Graduates 
Of 1968 Choose i 
Variety of Johs 

In a report concerning student teaching 
and placement for 19()7-68, Dr. Ralph Sheriff 
named three conditions present during 1968 
which affected placement patterns at Clarion 
State nnd other colleges. Dr. Sheriff is assis- 
tant director. 

The variety of job opportunities last year 
allowed much freedom of choice for the stu- 
dents. A large number of on campus inter- 
views had to be cancelled because the stu- 
dents apparently chose a specific area and 
concentrated on the schools of their choice 
in that area. 

Unwilling to wait action on the teacher 
salary bill for Pennsylvania, many students 
accepted positions in other states. 

With an increase in available financial aid, 
a greater number of students, especially wo- 
men, entered graduate school. Many men, 
due to the uncertain military situation, were 
prevented from accepting gra Juate school op- 
portunities. 

Degrees: 527 baccalaureate degrees were 
granted by Clarion State College between 
September 1, 1967. and August 30, 1968. Fifty- 
eight percent of these are women; and forty- 
two percent are men. Two hundred twenty 
nine degrees were granted in secondary ed- 
ucation (43.5 percent), 183 in elementary ed- 
ucation (34.6 percent), 54 in liberal arts (10- 
2 percent), and the remaining 61 (11.7 per- 
cent) were granted in library science, speech 
pathology and audiology, and special educa- 
tion. 

Job openings: Between September 1967 and 
September 1968, 29,488 notices of job oppor- 
tunities were listed in the placement office. 
This is more than twice the number listed 
in the previous year. The majority of these 
opportunities were in elementary and secon- 
dary education. 

Placement: Nearly 100 percent of all gra- 
duates who registered with the placement 
office have been provided with jobs. Ninety- 
two percent of all 1967-68 graduates have 
reported back to the placement office. Over 
seven percent have entered graduate school. 

Eighty percent of all teachers who took 
jobs, took positions in Pennsylvania. Ninety- 
six percent of these teachers settled in the 
western part of the state. 

The average teaching salary was $5,749, a 
figure which should have been higher, but 
January graduates entering on last year's 
salary scale tended to lower the average. 

Fifty-eight students accepted placement in 
other states. New York, Ohio, and Florida 
were the favorite states, with Michigan and 
Maryland close behind.

Golden Eagles Hold Raiders 
Scoreless in 35-0 Victory 



The Golden Eagles returned to the winning 
track with a 350 victory over Shippensburg 
on the arm of sophomore quarterback Bob 
Erdeljac, who threw for 228 yards and three 
touchdowns, and scored one himself. 

In the first quarter, Clarion tallied the first 
time they had the ball when Ihey took over 
after a 15-yard punt on the Shippensburg 
38. They drove the 38 yards in nine plays 
and the drive was capped by a 12-yard touch 
down pass from Erdeljac to Rick Terza. John 
Dorish kicked the extra point; thie score at 
the end of the first quarter was Clarion 7, 
Shippensburg 0. 

In the second quarter, Clarion drove 82 
yards in 14 plays with Jim Becker plunging 
over from the one-yard line for the score. 
Dorish again kicked the extra point. The 
score at this time was Clarion 14, Shippens- 
burg 0. 

Late in the second quarter, Shippensburg 
took over after an Erdeljac pass was picked 
off at the Clarion 49. They drove to the 
Clarion 2, where they fumbled the ball and 
Tom Humphrey recovered it. Nine plays la- 
ter, Erdeljac threw to Jim Becker for a 
50-yard touchdown pass in the closing minutes 
of the second quarter. Dorish added the extra 
point to give Clarion a 21-0 lead at half-time. 

Early in the third quarter, Clarion's fierce 
defense stopped a Shippensburg fourth down 
attempt for a first down at the Shippensburg 



44. Clarion drove the 44 yards in five plays 
with the drive capped by a 40-yard pass 
from Erdeljac to Becker. Clarion then inter- 
cepted a Ba urn garner pass at the Shippens- 
burg 18: seven plays later Erdeljac carried, 
the ball over from the two-yard line, Clarion's 
final score. Dorish added the extra point, 
making the score at the end of the third 
quarter Clarion 35. Shippensburg 0. 

In the fourth quarter. Clarion's defense 
stopped the Shippensburg offense on the 
ground, holding them to minus 26 yards. Mid- 
way through the qiuirtcr. Coach Al Jacks 
substituted freely, and the reserves turned 
in a favorable job, showing the potential that 
can only add to Clarion s defense next year. 

Clarion's stout defense again proved itself 
the best in the conference, giving up only 
170 yards in the air and none on the ground. 
This limited the Red Raiders' offense to a 
mere 170 yards total offense as compared 
to the Golden Eagles' 415-yard offensive 
gain. 

Clarion's victory over Shippensburg virtual- 
ly assured a second place for the Eagle 
squad in the V^'cstern Conference standings 
of the State College Conference. With a 3-1 
conference record and a 5-3 overall tally, 
Clarion travels tomorrow to Slippery Rock 
for the final game to close out the 1968 
football sea.son.

Clarion Will Face 
Tough Game Tomorrow 

Tomorrow. Clarion travels to Slippery Rock 
for the final game of the season to play 
a team which has shown .steady Improvement 
in recent weeks. They have won two of their 
last three games. They have a crushing 
ground attack and could make it tough on 
the Clarion defense. Clijsing the season with 
a win could prove difficult for Clarion State. 

Wagner at six fool, 206 pounds, is a power- 
ful runner for the Rockets. He is the work- 
horse of their rushing attack. The No. 21 on 
his back is the figure to watch. Ross, num- 
ber 14, weighing 190 pounds, and standing 
six foot, three, has great speed; he will keep 
and run. Pearl at five-ten, 175 pounds, is 
Ross' favorite receiver. 

On defense, Allen, five-nine and 190 pounds, 
is a tough blocker. Number 26, Franjione 
is five-eight, 165 pounds; he plays on the 
wing and is a dangerous pass defender. 

The Slippery Rock 11 commonly assembles 
in the Slot East-I. Their passing attack is 
limited to short hooks, swings, and look-ins. 
A quarterback sneak is a favorite rushing 
play for short yardage. 

Defensively they like to loop and blitz up 
the middle; they come hard on passing at- 
tempts. They maintain a goal line defense 
of 6-5. 

Coach AI Jacks probably won't vary Cla- 
rion's normal attack very much from pre- 
vious games. He will probably work the left 
side of the line a little more on rushing plays. 
Erdeljac can be expected to send his ends 
out, and balance the offense by running his 
backs equal time. 



Marching Band Will Present 
Second Annual Revue Thurs, 



On Thursday, the CSC Golden Eagle March- 
ing Band will present its second annual 
Marching Band Revue in ihe Waldo Tippin 
Gymnasium. This event, which is presented 
to give many people the opportunity to see 
and hear the Marching Band under more 
favorable conditions, is sponsored by the, Mu- 
sic Department. The program consists of 
marches, original compositions and ait the 
music presented during the half-time shows 
of the home football games. 

This Revue was conceived due to the many 
requests by students and faculty to hear the 
band perform the music which is presented 
each Saturday on the gridiron. In addition 
to the playing of the music the majorettes 
will present twirling routines to selections 
especially written for their twirling show- 
manship. 

Special arrangements by Mr. Mitchell and 
Mr. Hardin will be performed. Mr. Rex Mit- 
chell, assistant professor of music at Clarion, 
has composed and arranged for the past three 
years and has had several compositions pub- 
lished by Edward B. Marks and Charies Colin 
Publishing Companies of New York. Prior 
to coming to Clarion, Mr. Mitchell was the 
Director of Music at a school system with 



an enrollment of 8,000 pupils. Also he directed 
performing groups in Ohio, as well as par- 
ticipating in professional organizations there. 
In 1985, he gained membership in the Ameri- 
can School Band Directors Association which 
is respected for the development of fine high 
school bands. 

Mr. Burton Hardin, a newcomer to the 
music staff this year, has had extensive train- 
ing in composing and arranging at Kansas 
State Teachers College, University of Wichi- 
ta, and University of Oklahoma. Previously, 
he served as Director of Bands at a school 
system in Kansas and was an instructor at 
the University of South Carolina. He is a 
member of the American Federation of Musi- 
cians, as well as several other music asso- 
ciations. 

Dr. Stanley F. Michalski, who is in his 
seventh year as Director of Bands at CSC, 
came to Clarion after serving as band direc- 
tor in several bands in Pennsylvania. He 
also served as assistant director of the Penn 
State Marching and Concert Blue Band. 

Everyone is invited to attend this musical 
event which highlights the music of the 
marching band. There is no admis.sion charge 
for the revue which starts at 8 p.m.

Player of the Week 



Bob Erdeljac, who had one of his finest 
games of the sea.son last Saturday against 
Shippensburg, was the choice of the coaching 
staff of the Golden Eagles for the player-of- 
the-week award. 

Bob put together a fine offensive attack, 
compiling 228 yards in the air and an addi- 
tional 36 yards on the ground, in moving 
Clarion to its sixth win of the season. After 
eight games, Bob has compiled an average 
of 196 yards per game; he ranks in both 
the NCAA and the NAIA in total offense. 
Bob connected on 16 of his 31 passes, hurling 
for three touchdowns and running for another. 

With the graduation of Jim Alcorn last 
May, there was a big gap to be filled at 
quarterback. Bob had a fine year as quarter- 
back of the freshman squad, but whether 
he would be able to handle himself under 
varsity competition was a question mark. One 
of the biggest things working against a young 
quarterback is the ghost of inexperience, 
something that can haunt a player into mak- 
ing mistakes, which, could end up in missed 
plays, interceptions, or a lost set of downs. 

A good team requires a quarterback who 
can take charge of the situation before it 
gets the best of him. This is the type of 
ability Bob has: it cannot be taught. Bob 
is a quiet person, but on the field he is 
a born leader, a take-charge guy who is 
respected by the other players. 

Commenting on his reasons for selecting 
Bob, Coach Al Jacks said, "Bob has been 
working up to this game since the season 
opener against Mansfield. Every game he 
gets progressively better. Bob has a fine 
future ahead of him." 

Since Erdeljac has two years to go here 
at Clarion. Coach Jacks has found someone 
who can fill the shoes of Jim Alcorn, and 
establish himself as one of Clarion's finest 
quarterbacks.

CLARION STATE COLLEGE — CLARION, PENNSYLVANIA 



Friday, November 15, 1968 



Students Rehearse for All-School Play 



COPELAND IS DIRECTOR 




'Herr Biedermann alld Firebugs' 
Will Be Presented HeXi Week; 
Psychedelic Atmosphere Prevails 



Rehearsals continue this weekend for the 
llerr Biedermann and the Firebugs, the se- 
cond major production of the semester by 
the Department of Speech and Dramatic Arts. 

The Max Frisch play, directed by Robert 
Copeland, as.sociate professor of speech, will 
be presented next Wednesday. Thursday, Fri- 
day, and Saturday evenings at 8:30 p.m. in 
the college chapel. Tickets may be obtained 
by students in the chapel weekday afternoons 
in exchange for their remaining student thea- 
ter passes. 

The play itself is concerned with the pro- 
blems faced by Herr Biedermann (Ken Mil- 



ler) and h.s household (Cookie Smilh, his 
wife, and Betty Ferguson, maid) when they 
acquire some "guests" (John Dori.sh, Steve 
Brezzo, and Phil Ross). Living in a world 
of fear and suspicion, Gottlieb Biedermann 
(Everyman) does not know how to deal with 
these "strangers." 

An integral part of the play is the chorus 
of student protesters who serve much the 
same purpose as a chorus in a classic Greek 
Drama, i.e., serving as the spokesmen for 
the public or audience, and commenting on 
the action on stage. The chorus members 



are: George Hall, the leader. Herb Michaels, 
Gary Daurora, Chris Mas.sena, Bob Heimann, 
Dan Speal. Willie Sanders. Paul Galfney, 
and Mike Elliot (the last six are pictured 
above). 

This production is enhanced by a generally 
psychedelic atmosphere. Some scenes will be 
accompanied by the music of The Scarlet 
Pumpernickels, a popular rock group. In ad- 
dition, there will be strobe and colored lights, 
incense and peppermint. As Lennon and Mc- 
Cartney say, "A splendid time is guaran- 
teed for all."

Freshman Debaters Take Fire Breaks Out Positive and Negative Remarks 



First Place in Two -Man 
Switch-Sides Division Event 



Fourteen Clarion State first-year debaters 
competed with debaters from a dozen visit- 
ing colleges in a novice tournament held 
on the Clarion campus last weekend, with 
two Clarion freshmen taking first place in 
the two-man switch-sides division. 

Clarion's best record was compiled by Bar- 
ry McCauliff, Johnstown, and Karla Jantsch, 
Baden, with a record of five wins and no 
losses. On the way to their first-place finish, 
McCauliff and Jantsch recorded wins over 
Temple, Villanova, Duquesne, Buffalo and 
the University of Pittsburgh. 

With Clarion debaters ineligible for awards 
in their own tourney, the first-place trophy 
went to the University of Pittsburgh in the 
two-man division. Pitt's record was 4-2, with 
Villanova taking second honors on a 3-3 re- 
cord. 

A second Clarion team debating in the two- 
man division had good enough records for 
second place had they been eligible for 
awards. They were Judy Rosensteel, Elders 
Ridge, and Sue Knowles, New Castle, who 
were 3-2 with wins over Villanova, Duquesne, 
and Buffalo, and losses to Temple, and Pitt. 

In the four-man division, ten other Clarion 



debaters compiled a composite record of 11 
wins and 5 losses. This division was Vfon 
by Pitt with an 8-0 record. West Virginia 
took second place with 6-2. 

The Clarion team of Jim Rarick, New 
Brighton; Judy McAuley, Pittsburgh; Rebec- 
ca Kasper, Munhall, and Lillian Pfaff, Cla- 
rion, finished with a 6-2 record to tie for 
second place. Rarick and McAuley had wins 
over Edinboro, Akron and Pitt at Johnstown, 
and a loss to first-place Pitt. Kasper and 
Pfaff had wins over Kutztown, Thiel and 
Slippery Rock, and a loss to Susquehanna. 

A second Clarion unit divided debates 
among several debaters, finishing 5-3. Bob 
Banks, Ambridge, and Frank Falso, Corao- 
polis, had wins over two Edinboro teams, 
and debated against second-place West Vir- 
ginia in the final round of the toiu*nament. 

On the negative for Clarion's fourth-place 
team, Jetta Gilligan, Coalport, and Eileen 
McGinley, Pittsburgh, were 2-0, with wins 
over Slippery Rock and Thiel. Al Carraway, 
Grausville, and Diane Schulheiss, Newark, 
Del., were 1-1, defeating Akron and losing 
to first-place University of Pittsburgh. 



Becht Hall Group Presents 



In Peirce Hall 

Fire broke out in Peirce Science Center 
on Wednesday morning when the motor of 
an air pump to an aquarium overheated. 

A passerby on Greenville Avenue apparent- 
ly spotted the fire at 7:30 a.m. and reported 
it to the school. Mrs. Muriel Shea, switch- 
board operator, immediately contacted the 
Clarion Volunteer Fire Company, which re- 
sponded in a matter of minutes. Paul Deemer 
and Thaddeus Droast of the Campus Security 
Force and John Thomas and his assistants 
of the custodial force quickly arrived at the 
fire and offered their assistance. Fire ex- 
tinguishers were used to put out the fire. 

Dr. Dana Still, assistant dean of academic 
affairs, assumed responsibility for the eva- 
cuation of both students and faculty; he can- 
called all first-period classes scheduled for 
Peirce. Fire Chief Wilshire investigated the 
building and stated that classes could resume 
at 9. 

The building is now being inspected for 
any structural damage. Immediate damage 
caused by the fire to Room 217, the Graduate 
Study Space and Research Center, and per- 
sonal losses, such as books, was estimated 
to be under $1,000. 

Dr. David Hilton, assistant to the president, 
extends credit and gratitude to the Clarion 
Volunteer Fire Department for their fast re- 
sponse to the fire alarm and for thorough 
action in extinguishing the fire and in pre- 
venting further damage. 



By ROSEMARY SLEBODNIK 

This semester, women residents have re- 
ceived an extension of hours. One of the 
reasons they received this extension was that 
they supposedly needed more time to study 
in the library. Women's hours have been 
extended to midnight, but the library stStdlB^ 
ses at 10. Our opinion poll concerns the ex- 
tension of library and Union hours. "Do you 
think that the closing hours for the library 
and Student Union are adequate? " 

Charles McLaughlin: "The library hours 
are too short. It should stay open until at 
least 11, since the girls don't have to be 
in until midnight. It seems just v;hen you're 
beginning to get your work done, they shut 
the lights off. The Union .should ' stay open 
until at least 11:30, so that when you're done 
studying, you can go to the Union to relax, 
listen to music, and have a cup of coffee, 
and still get your girl to the dorm on time." 

Kathy Byrne: "As a library worker, I 
don't think it would be necessary to extend 
the library hours, because on the evenings 
I have worked in the library, there were 
no more than 25 people in the library at 
closing time." 

Tom Johnson: "No, not really, because 
with the extension of hours, there is really 
no place to go except downtown, and there 
isn't much to do in town. If the Union were 



open, at least there would be a place to 
go to meet friends." 

Yuddie Elwood: "No, I like the hours 
the way they are. If you're going to the 
^library to study, chances are you would go 
early rather than late (10 o'clock is late). 
. .The Union hours are all right as tar &&. I'.m 
cohcerned; I just come between classes to 
waste time." 

Al Serff: "Definitely not. For example, 
'when the women's hours were 11:30 and 1 
o'clock, the Union closed at 11, and midnight 
on weekends. This was a good setup, because 
it left enough time for the guy tc walk his 
;girl back to the dorm— but it didn't leave 
so much time that there was no place to 
go. The way it is set up now, it is perhaps 
all right, but it does leave more time than 
would be desired." 

Laura O'Donavan: "The difficulty in get- 
ting people to work late hours outweighs 
the advantage of having the library open 
for a few people." 

If the library extended its hours, perhaps 
more students would take advantage of this 
facility. As it is now, many students may 
be discouraged from using the library, be- 
cause they may be asked to leave when 
they are most involved in their work. If 
the librarians feel a change in hoiu"s w^ould 
be worthwhile, perhaps something could be 
done to extend the closing time of both the 
library and the Student Union. 



Two Dances 



Student - Faculty Discussion Are Scheduled 



Planetarium Will Hold 
Open House Nexf Week 



Becht Hall presented the first in a series 
of faculty-student discussions last Sunday. 

It opened with a movie on the new moral- 
ity, entitled "How Do I Love Thee." Taking 
part in the discussion which followed were 
members of the faculty and prominent citi- 
zens of Clarion. Those who participated were 
Reverend and Mrs. McCartney, Dr. Hugh 
Park, and Miss Judy Brown. The discussion 
was begun by Mrs. Vairo, assistant dean 
of students. 

Among the questions discussed were: Is 
there really a new morality, or is it the 
same old one, better publicized? The group 
also discussed whether sex and love can be 
equated, whether there should be sex before 
marriage, and whether the modern genera- 
tion is more prone to lax morals than the 
generations of the past. 

Although no cohclusions were reached, it 
was the consensus of opinion that the dis- 
cussion was interesting and profitable. Both 
students and faculty had an opportunity to 
express themselves concerning this current 
issue. Both men and women students parti- 
cipated in the discussion. Refreshments were 
served, and the students had an opportunity 
to chat with the guests. 

The program committee, consisting of 



Jeanie O'Hop. Cay Weldon, Carol Winkelman, 
and Elizabeth Curley, is now making plans 
for Becht's next discussion.

of the ones offered are Linguistical Approach 
to Non-standard Speech, Psycholinguistic 
Considerations of Adult Aphasia, Electroi*y- 
(Scological Methods in Auditory Research, and 
The Use and Misuse of Statistical Influence 
in Speech and Hearing Research. 

On Friday, discussions are planned on the 
scientific and technical aspects of speech and 
hearing such as stuttering and recovering 
from it, early development of the language, 
speech services offered by the public school 
systems, speech discrimination and interna- 
tional developments in the speech and hear- 
ing fields. 

The Speech Pathology and Audiology De- 
partment is preparing an exhibit illustrating 
the undergraduate and graduate programs 
offered in that field at Clarion. The exhibit 
will be on display during the convention. 

New Courses 



Are Approved 



The Faculty Senate, at the November 11 
meeting, approved proposals for a new geo- 
graphy course, five new history courses, and 
a new psychology course. The geography 
course, 456 Aerial Photo Interpretation, is 
a systematic study of aerial photographs for 
geographic investigations of physical and cul- 
tural features of the landscape. The present 
Hist. 258 and 259 have been deleted and in 
their place are 258 Traditional India and 
259 Modem India-Pakistan. The first is the 
historical development of Indian civilization 
and 259 is a continuation of the first. Hist. 
362, History of Afro-America, deals with 
the role of the Negro in American histwy. 
Asia since World War I is the course Contem- 
porary Asia, Hist. 400. Modem Southeast As- 
ia, Hist. 270, deals with the different systems 
of western colonial rule. The psychology 
course, Psy. 322 Developmental Psychology, 
is being offered to meet the requirem«its 
of a developmental course for the music, 
nursing, and art education curriculums, and 
as a single course in developmental psychol- 
ogy for Liberal Arts students instead of both 
courses Adolescence and Child Psychology. 
Geog. 456, Hist. 258. 400, and Psy. 322 are 
being offered this coming semester and the 
others will be offered next fall.

THE CALL -- Clarion State College, Clarion, Pennsylvania

Editorially 
Speaking 



Comment Cards — A More 
Mature System Requested 



Comment cards for the first se- 
mester have recently been distributed 
to students who are doing unsatisfac- 
tory work in their courses. The pur- 
pose of these cards is to inform stu- 
dents of their academic progress after 
the first nine weelcs of classes each se- 
mester. 

However, it is questionable wheth- 
er or not these cards are of much value 
to students. Most students, and espec- 
ially upperclassmen, know exactly how 
they are doing in their classes. Re- 
ceiving a comment card only verifies 
what students already know. For this 
reason, it seems as if a considerable 
amount of time and expense is wasted 
on a practice which serves little, if any, 
purpose. 

Perhaps freshmen do need a warn- 
ing system, but upperclassmen should 
be mature enough to accept the re- 
sponsibility of seeking help from in- 
structors and advisors on their own. If 
a student has a sincere interest in his 
a^'adomic achievements, he will con- 
sider it a personal obligation to do 
something about his inadequacies. If, 
on the other hand, a student has no 
interest, a mere comment card will 
make no difference, and will not mira- 
culously change the poor sudent's study 
habits. 

Incidentally, comment cards are 



Can the Cafeteria Staff Ruin 
All the Food They Touch? 



Can the cafeteria staff really ruin 
all the food they touch? It seems this 
way. There must be other meats than 
veal and pork available. 

Many students complain unjust- 
ly about the quality of meals served, 
but realistically much of this criticism 
is justified. This year the cafeteria 
added a pop machine to reduce the 
large cost of milk. Many new and 
different desserts were added to the 
lunches, but cake, ice cream, or pie 
persist in being the dinner dessert. 
Can't there be more of a variety at din- 
ner as well as at lunch? 

Variety — that is what the students 
pf Clarion want at their meals! Is it 
necessary for the cafeteria to serve 
veal three times a week? It is getting 
to be a chore to even go to dinner. 
Why bother going, when you can ac- 
curately guess what will be served. 
For example, on Friday evenings the 
typical dinner consists of .some type 
of fish and liver, a vegetable (more; 
than likely corn or beans), a salad or 
cole slaw, cherry pie or ice cream, and 
of course, the rolls that'feel as if they 
a»-e a week old. Is this necessary? 
Certainly a dietician has more imagin- 
ation than that. 

Many of the students cannot eat 
what is served because of medical rea- 
sons or because of diets prescribed by 
physicians. The cafeteria does pro- 
vide special meals for these people, 
and those who have eaten these meals 
agree that they are worse than regular 
meals. They have less of a selection 
than \vc do: no one can eat roast beef 



seven days a week. At least, for a 
variety we sometimes get ham. 

Another complaint many students 
have is the large amount of carbohy- 
drates we are served. Why? Instant 
potatoes in any form soon lose their 
appeal. Carbohydrates do fill one up, 
but do we have to gain weight just be- 
cause we are hungry and will eat them? 
Wouldn't it be possible for two cuts of 
meat to be served with the dinner 
meal? Seconds are not allowed, but 
how can anyone survive on the small 
portions that are served? There are 
twof possible solutions: One, eat a large 
amount of rolls; or two, go to the diner 
latel' on in the evening. 

Another major complaint is this: 
Why should the cafeteria run out of 
certain foods as much as an hour be- 
fore the line closes? Often the cafe- 
terili runs out of butter and students 
must eat margarine. This is not a 
major complaint, but many students 
prefer the more expensive spread. 
There should be no excuse for running 
outjOf any food choice. 

4 

The students face a decision that 
must be made along about 4:30 every 
day: to eat and suffer the consequences 
later or to skip the meal and eat at 
the diner. If the cafeteria raised its 
standards, this decision would help the 
students save money. 

Will the cafeteria continue to 
serve veal and ham every other day? 
Mavbe not. Possiblv, tomorrow we 
will have "something new and differ- 
ent," something like swiss steak.

PUntiinj Tlti M«^tt<t 



» • • • 



often not a fair evaluation of how a 
student is doing in a course because 
they are usually based on a single 
exam. Every instructor tests differ- 
ently, and often students must adjust 
to a particular testing method before 
doing well on an exam. 

Freshmen, recently out of high 
school, are used to receiving regular 
reports of their academic progress, and 
when they enter college, it could pos- 
sibly be that comments make adjust- 
ments easier. But, wouldn't it be more 
practical to have a system of reporting 
exclusively for freshmen instead of 
extending this secondary school prac- 
tice to 22-year-old seniors? 

If a student wants help, he will 
find a means to get help. Surely the 
administration should have enough 
faith in their students to realize this 
fact. An evaluation of the comment 
system should, therefore, be consider- 
ed. Clarion needs to change this out- 
dated system, and as the old saying 
goes, "There is no time hke the pres- 
ent." 

We can assure the academic deans 
of the college that Clarion students will 
appreciate your efforts to revise the 
present comment card system,

Letters to The Editor 



student Supports Visitation Rights 

Editor, Hie Call: 

In regards to the opinion poll in last week's 
issue of the Call I firmly believe that such 
visitation rights are necessary in our day 
and age of "New Ideas." The visiting hours 
would have to be regulated to affcroximately 
two hours per night (Example f-9) and the 
doors should be closed to allow privacy. 

We are supposed to be young adults who 
are able to accept responsibility and, if given 
the challenge and the trust, to rise to the 
situation that would be available. If the 
•'door closing" is abused, the offenders should 
be punished severely, but the punishment 
should be reserved for the offender not the 
entire dorm. We pay for the room, why 
shouldn't we be permitted to be alone in 
it with anyone we desire? 

A few examples of the good in visitation, 
to dorms are as follows: 

1. Everyone would keep their rooms clean 
and beds made. 

2. The "Mou'ths" would watch their lan- 
guage and thus raise the morals of the dorm. 

3. Students would not run around without 
clothes (1 think). 

4. Having a desirable study mate would 
make work a lot easier. 

5. Tiiere would be a reduction in the rate 
of colds on campus. This would be due to 
the fact that everyone would be inside in- 
stead of out running in the cold with no 
place to go except the Union (nice place). 

6. Money would be saved on phone calls, 
thus the guys would have more money for 
"Bovine" (beer and wine). 

It might even be possible for the guys 
to get the girls to do their laundry and even 
get their ironing done. This will beautify 
the campus because the guys would look 
clean and dapper all the time. The girls 
would get good practice that they will need 
later for marriage. Well, it's time for class, 
so I'll see you down at my dorm real soon, 
I hope (but remember to bring spray starch 
and a lot of hangers).

Duties of Advisors Questioned 

Editor, The Call: 

What is an advisor? In many instances, 
a person who once a year hands out com- 



ments and twice annually pre-registers a stu- 
dent. In spme cases even these minimal func- 
tions are not fulfilled. From past experience 
I know that a freshman or first semester 
sophomore is not equipped to single-handedly 
choose his own subjects. How many students 
short six credits for graduation or minus 
a needed prerequisite for a course he wishes 
to take now wish that their advisor had ad- 
vised? 

A real Irelationship should exist between 
student and advisor. More contact should oc- 
cur than bi-annual visits. 

Music professors have psychology major 
advisees. Elementary majors are scattered 
at randem over the faculty. 

Revise. Strengthen. Abolish?

Kappa Delta Pi 
Recent Addition 
To Campus Groups 

Kappa Delta Pi, honorary education fra- 
ternity, is a relatively recent addition to the 
organizations on Clarion campus, being ini- 
tiated only a little over a year ago. The 
officers for this semester, Nancy Mincemo- 
yer, president; Cindy Hovis, vice president: 
Buth Johnston, secretary-treasurer; and Barb 
Jakub, hi.storian. along with the members 
would like to express their appreciation to 
Dr. Francis Baptist, our advisor, for his en- 
thusia.stic interest and cooperation. 

Thus far this semester, the Lambda Eta 
chapter has held an organizational meeting 
and dessert held at Dr. Baptist'^ home. We 
also are planning a meeting to 'be held on 
Nov. 20. Speaking at this meeting will be 
Father Eldon Somers and Rev. David Lutz, 
who will speak and lead discussion on the 
controversial topic "Obscenity and You," con- 
cerning censorship in literature.' We would 
like fo invite all interested students to at- 
tend this meeting. We have, in addition, made 
many exciting plans for our future meetings 
and service projects to the campus. 



Continuing until tomorrow ni^ht at the Gar- 
by will be 'If He Hollers. Let Him Go," 
a story of intrigue and murder in which 
songstress Barbara McNair makes her film 
debut. 

Beginning Sunday is the double feature: 
"Angels from Hell" and "Sadismo," the 
first, a story about a motorcycle gang, the 
second another anthology of modern sadistic 
practices. Wednesday begins the German im- 
port, "Helga," a graphically intimate story 
of a girl on the brink of womanhood. 

Ending Saturday at the Orpheum is "I'll 
Never Forget What's 'Is Name," the story 
of a young junior auvertising executive who 
one day decides to cut his career short with 
an axe. Rod Taylor and Claudia Cardinale 
arrive Sunday in "The Hell with Heroes," 
a movie set in the Algerian black-market. 

The Wednesday Bargain Night feature will 
be the World War II comedy "The Secret 
War of Harry Frigg," starring Paul Newman. 
The next night, Sean Conncry, Brigitte Bar- 
dot, and Honor Blackman team together in 
the western "Shalako" which deals with an 
1880's safari into the American V/est. 

Spotlight On 
Other Campuses 

Robert Morris Junior College 

Robert Morris Junior College in Pittsburgh 
is trying a new system called "block book- 
ing. " The main purpose of this device is 
to enable colleges to stretch their budgets 
to obtain the best quality entertainment for 
the best possible price. With this system sev- 
eral neighboring colleges hire a group and 
share the expenses that would otherwise be 
incurred for transportation and the like. 
Temple University 

The students of Temple University have 
formed a Student Tutorial Society. Students 
in need may hire a student-tutor for a small 
fee. 
East Stroudsburg State College 

The administration of East Stroudsburg 
S*a1e Co'lee*™ has »>resentr>d a statement on 
dress regulations. The students, however, are 
contesting the ruling, claiming that a dress 
code is not relevant to an education. 

Four People Gather 
At Open Meeting 

Only four people gathered at the of)en meet- 
ing of the Faculty Senate Ad Hoc Parking 
Committee held Nov. 13. Present were Dr. 
Tracy Bpchwalter. member of the committee, 
Mr. Thaddeus Droast, director of security. 
Brian Dubosky, student, and Dick Mears,

Alliance for Campus Talent 
Helps to Book Entertainment 



Editor's Note: This is the second in a 
series «f articles dealiag with the programs 
sponsM-ed by the National Students Asso- 
ciation. For further information on this pro- 
gram, see a student senator. 

By DICK MEARS 

The Alliance for Campus Talent is another 
program of N.S.A., A.C.T. is a service which 
is conoerned with alleviating some of the 
problems faced by campus entertainment 
chairmen. A.C.T. assists in booking the best 
live entertainment at the lowest possible 
rates. A.C.T. also assists in arranging for 
concert film programs and in booking speak 
ers. 

Based on the money available, opeii dates 
in the college calendar and talent prefer- 
ences, A.C.T. will negotiate with agents and 
managers for the attractions you want. A.C.T. 
will work as your agent. 

A.C.T, maintains up-to-date files on the 
appearances of performers on college cam- 
puses. This file includes attendance figures, 
the fees paid to attractions, campus ratings 
of the Cfuality of performances, and to date 
itineraries for future campus appearances. 
A.C.T. helps schools organize regional "block 
booking" and will sponsor "block booking" 
conferences. By enabling several schools in 
an area to book an attraction on several 
consecutive nights, transportation expenses 
are lowered for the performer and conse- 
quently the cost pf the talent to the schools 
can be lowered considerably. 

Publications are also cent to subscribers 
to help make their concerts successful. How 
to Publicize Your Campus Entertainment 
Program and How to Choose Entertainment 
for Your Campus are two of the publications 
available. Also, a periodic newsletter written 
especially for campus talent bookers. Attrac- 
tion includes information about which perfor- 



mers have appeared and where and how 
successful the concert was. 

All campus organizations sponsoring live 
entertainment events, speakers, and films are 
entitled to use the Alliance for Campus Tal- 
ent services. 

The following demonstrates how A.C.T. 
works to get campus talent: 

1. Phone or write ACT. specifying the 
dates to be booked, the funds budgeted for 
the attractions you want. Be sure to give 
several alteniative attractions and dates. 

2. Give ACT. an idea of the type of attrac- 
tions you want, i.e., soul or jazr. 

3. Having received your authorizatMn to re- 
present you in negotiation for the attractions 
and dates which you have specified, AJC.T. 
will proceed with the following steps: 

4. They will review our files to determine 
how well the attraction performed on other 
campuses, how well the performance was 
attended and how much money other schools 
were charged for the act. They will also 
review future itineraries of performers to 
see which acts will be appearing in your 
area. 

5. They will then ascertain the availability 
and range of fees of the attractiMis which 
you have requested. Because A.C.T. repre- 
sents many schools, they are in a more know- 
ledgeable and powerful bargaining position 
than any single school. A.C.T. will then nego- 
tiate on your behalf for the lowest possible 
price for the talent you desir^. 

6. If you agree to the negotiated price 
for the performer, operations will be put 
in motion to finalize the agreement between 
the authorized representative ot your school 
and the attraction's representative. 

A.C.T. is not a talent agency. They repre- 
sent no performers of their own. A.C.T. does 
offer an excellent opportunity to acquire tal- 
ent for Clarion's campus.

Coach Joy Predicts Good Season 
For Clarion Staters Golden Eagles 



Cautious optimism pervades Clarion State's 
basketball talk as Coach John Joy assesses 
his 1968-69 season chances. 

According to Mr. Joy, the Golden Eagles 
looked fairly good in a preseason scrimmage 
last Sunday with St. Vincent College in 
Latrobe. Tonight the Eagles will scrimmage 
Carnegie-Mellon here, and on November 21, 
CSC hosts Westminster College in another 
preseason game. 

Eagles Show Improvement 

It seems reasonable that the Eagles will 
show improvement over last year's 515 re- 
cord. They show more height and all-around 
depth in their ranks and will need it in 
coping with a longer and tougher schedule 
including tournaments at Troy-Alabama and 
the Indiana Christmas To\u-nament, both in 
December. 

After two poor seasons in a row. Coach 
Joy is due for better things. His eight-year 
record at Clarion shows 69 wins and 65 losses, 
and he feels he has the material to continue 
his better than 50 percent average. Help from 
able assistant coaches, Tom Beck and Stan 
Hallman, bolsters that conviction. 

Lettermen Returning 

Seven returning lettermen should contri- 
bute to a strong starting lineup. 

Returnees are captain and playmaker Joe 
Chalmers, 5' 9" senior; juniors George Law- 
ry, 6' 4" center and leading rebounder; Bud- 
dy Martin, 6' 1" swing man who came on 
strong last year; Denny Luce, 5' 11" outside 
scoring powerhouse, and Joe Podolak, 5' 10", 
who is probably the best alternate guard 
in the conference. 

Back in harness after sitting out last seafson 
for a technical violation are 6' 2" senior 
Larry Kubovchick and 6' 3" senior Bob Fus- 
co. Larry was leading scorer a^d second 
leading rebounder for the Golden Eagles his 
sophomore year, as well as third leading 
scorer in the state; Bob was leading re- 
bounder and second leading scorer his sopho- 
more year. 

Comeback Anticipated 

Two big "ifs" malting the Eagles' hopes 
for a comeback a clouded issue bang on 
the ability of these two key men to spring 
back after a year's layoff. 

More cause for wonderment is 6' 10". John 
Park, just up from the freshman ranks. The 
Eagle coaches have high hqpes of the tow- 
ering sophomore developing . defensively and 
becoming a strong rebounder. 

Packing another question mark is 6' 4" 
sophomore Ernie Westerman, who has fine 
back-up potential at forward and center. 

Other varsity men who should see consider- 
able action this year are 5' 11" senior j,gylird 
Regis Ruane; 6' 2" junior forward Frank 
Bracks, who is not eligible until, the secobd 
semester, sophomores Ray Rykaceski, 5' 9" 
guard, and Dennis Dixon, 6' 2" forward. 

F4*eshmen Join Team 

Twelv? likely looking freshmen joining the 
Eagle Banks this season are Thomas Mur- 
taugh, 6' 4"; Fred Haas, 6' 5"; Mike Rastat- 
ter, 6'; .Greg ThompsMi, 6' 1 "; George 
Vitcain, 6 2"; Jim Schultz, 5' 9"; Albert 
Ritchie, 6' 1"; Cart Jeffries, 6' 1"; Bill Mit- 
chell, 6' .5"; Tom Fyre, 6' 2"; Don Niver, 
6' 1"; and Tom Mudyer, 6'. 



Coach Joy feels that Edinboro is the team 
to beat this year; the Fighting Scots posted 
a 19-5 slate last year and are always a big 
threat. Other conference troublemakers could 
be Lock Haven, California, and SUppery

(We took the inside out 

to show you how different it is.) 

Outside: it's softer and silky (not cardboardy). 
Inside: it's so extra absorbent. . .it even protects on 
your first day. Your worst day! 

In every lab test against the old cardboardy kind . . . 
the Playtex tampon was always more absorbent. 
Actually 45 % more absorbent on the average 
than the leading regular tampon. 

Because it's different. Actually adjusts to you. 
It flowers out. Fluffs out. Designed to protect every

Closing out the season's play, the coaches 

have decided to name Mike Giunta for this 

week's player of the week award for his 



Eagles Slip Past 
Slippery Roek 
In Season Finale 

The Golden Eagles scored a come-from- 
behind victory Saturday over the Rockets 
of Slippery Rock in the final game of the 
season for both teams. Clarion's come-from- 
behind victory was sparked by recovery of 
a blocked punt by sophomore Chuck Koval 
for a touchdown and the throwing of Bob 
Erdeljac, who threw for 229 yards and two 
touchdowns. 

After Slippery Rock kicked off to Clarion, 
a tough Rocket defense forced Clarion to 
punt and Slippery Rock took over on their 
own 30-yard line. The Rockets drove the 70 
yards in seven plays capped by Jay Wagner's 
23-yard touchdown run. Wilkeson kicked the 
extra point. 

When Slippery Rock's tough defense 
stopped the Golden Eagles again and forced 
them to punt, the Rockets got the ball on 
their own 25-yard Une. They drove 75 yards 
in' seven plays and scored when Wagner ram- 
bled the final 52 yards to score, Wilkeson 
tK^„ added the extra ppint. The score at 
tl|e^ end of the first quarter was Clarion 0, 
Slippery Rock l*: " 

.'In the second quarter Slippery Rock con- 
trolled the ball lor 32 plays, while Clarion 
ran only seven plays. The only scoring at- 
tempt in the quarter was a 40-yard field 
goal try by Slippery Rock's Franjione. ft 
was wide and short. 

In the third quarter Clarion got on the 
sccWeboard when Bob Gevaudan blocked a 
Slippery Rock punt and Chuck Koval rambled 
38 yards for the touchdown. ScAol Dorish 
made the conversion and the score was Cla- 
rion 7 and Slippery Rock 14. 

In the fourth quarter the Golden Eagles 
punted to the Rockets' 27-yard line. On the 
first play Wagner fumbled and Jimmy Jones 
pounced on the ball at the Slippery Rock 
25-yard line. Then Clarion capitalized on t^e 
break when Bob Erdeljac threw a screen 
pass to Bill Wise for a 25-yard touchdown. 
John Dorish made the conversion, which tied 
the score at 14-all. 

Clarion kicked off to Slippery Rock and 
they drove to the Clarion 17-yard line. At 
this point, the Golden Eagles' defense tighten- 
ed and the Rockets were forced to kick a 
35-yard field goal, which was made by Fran- 
jione. The score Clarion 14, Slippery Rock 
17. 

Slippery Rock then kicked off and Mike 
Giunta returned the kick 33 yards to the Cla- 
rion 40-yard line. Clarion drove the 60 yards 
in 13 plays capped by a spectular seven-yard 
touchdown catch by Mike Giunta. John Dorish 
kicked the extra point, making the score Cla- 
rion 21 and Slippery Rock 17. 

The final scoring in the game came when 
Slippery Rock vi'as forced to punt from their 
own endzone and Art Tragasser blocked it 
for a safety. The final score was Clarion 23, 
Slippery Rock 17.

outstanding performance in Clarion's wtt"»v%, 
er Slippery Rock this past Saturday. 

Giunta is a member of that rare breed 
of halfbacks whose small size (5-8, 16$ 
pounds) accounts for his quickness and agili 
ity, but who is strong enough to fend 9^ 
enemy tackles or take care of on-ruShing' 
linemen when protecting the passer. One of 
Mike's biggest asuets is his perception of 
what's going on all over the field. 

His quickness out of the backfield and his 
keen sense for picking out holes has made 
him one of the lop rushers in the conference. 
On an end-around sweep Mike can pour it • 
on and outrace the linebacker or stop sud- 
denly and charge into the Une leaving the 
defense flatfooted. All the time Mike's mov- 
ing; feet, hips, shoulders are moving, faking 
one way and going the other, giving the 
defensiveman as little area as possible to 
tackle. 

As anyone who was at the game last Sat- 
urday saw, Giunta put forth another beautiful 
performance. He snared four passes for an 
average of 11 yards per pass and after a 
slow first half brought his yards rushing to 
3.5 per carry. His 46-yard kickoff return in 
the fourth quarter set up a Clarion touch- 
down. Giunta was the spark Clarion needed 
after a poor first half. When Clarion needed 
a big play, they would just open up a hole 
and give the ball to Mike. 

Coach Jacks, commenting on Mike's perfor- 
mance said, "Mike was what the team need- 
ed in the second half to get started. He 
gave the team the boost to win." 

Sign-Out Change 
Is Diseussed by 
Students* Deans 

At the weekly meeting of the Women's 
Residence Board, Deans Vairo, Reisman, and 
Elliott participated ui a rather lengthy dis- 
cussion concerning sign-out procedures for 
Clarion's women students. The deans expres- 
sed their desire for a fair system which 
would promote complete honesty on the part 
of the girls and at the same time provide 
maximum security. 

The board reached no conclusions, but it 
was decided that a questionnaire would be 
sent to all women residents and dorrti meet- 
ings would be held to give the girls a chance 
to discuss the alternatives. The results of 
the questionnaire, if approved by the Wo- 
men's Residence Board, will then be put 
in a proposal to the deans, who will in turn 
send it to President Gemmell. He will make 
the final decision. 



Eighteen men, 11 veterans and seven new- 
comers, have zeroed in on Coach Galen Ob- 
er's 1968-69 rifle team with the opening match 
today hosting Allegheny College at 6 p.m*. 
in the new Tippin Gymnasium indoor range 
at Clarion State College. 

Ober has added an additional three match- 
es to his original card of 13. recently schedul- 
ing home contests with St. Francis and Pitt, 
Nov. 23, and Feb. 1, and an away shoot 
with St. Francis, Jan. 29. 

Regarding the competition as generally 
tougher this year, Ober cites the opener with 
the Gator riflemen as the really big one 
as the Meadville squad is considered tops 
in the league. Also rating high in keenest 
competition ranks are Pitt, Indiana, Carne- 
gie-Mellon, and Geneva. W and J, St. Fran- 



qs and Duqucsne are less formidable b|it 
still no pushovers. 

Returning to the lists this season are vel^ 
erans Craig Bates, Latrobe; Randy Burns, 
S I i g o; William Chessman, Wilkinsburg; 
James Daley, Stanhope, N. J.; Dennis Em- 
crick, Hyndman; Eimar Larson. Lanse; RoO- 
ald Stebler, Pittsburgh; David Weible, Falla

OPINION POLL 



Is the Advisor System Effective? 
Students Answer Yes' and No' 



By ROSEMARY SLEBODNIK 

During the week before preregistration and 
after comments were issued, notices ap- 
peared in the daily bulletins urging students 
to make appointments with their "friendly" 
advisors. Though this may have been writ- 
ten with humorous intentions, one couldn't 
help but feel that there must be something 
wrong with our present advisor system. This 
prompted us to ask students how often they 
meet with their advisors, and do they find 
such an advisor system effective— especially 
during preregistration. 

Linda I^xterman: "Previously, I have had 
no use for an advisor. They were superficially 
concerned, and too rushed to give valuable 
statement; therefore, I had to advise myself. 
However, I feel if an advisor could effectively 
give advice with some real though and con- 
cern, then this advice would be worthwhile." 

Richard CuUen: "All students should have 
to go to an advisor. The advisors may know 
special class changes or special conditions 
of which thft.atud^t is unaware." 

Jim Orr: "I feel that an advisor with 
proper experience — that is, knowledgeable 
about courses to be taken, and is familiar 
with your dossier — could be extremely helpful 
in course selection. I think that sometimes 
an advisor who knows what he is doing can 
help you make better course selections. So 
many advisors are just interested in their 
own fields — these are not good advisors. I 
feci juniors or seniors should have an option 
to preregister with an advisor." 

Kathy Barron: "From my present exper- 
ience, I find my advisor really helps me 
decide what course I should take and bal- 
ances my courses as to weight of courses. 
But this is my third advisor; the others were 
not as concerned." 

James Huber: "If you get rid of advisors, 
a course list could be made available to 
students in order for them to meet the re- 
quirements of their majors. As far as I can 
see, the principal function of the advisor is 
to put his initials on your preregistration 
form. In my case. I don't feel an advisor 
is necessary, but for others, the advisor may 
be helpful." 

Raine Martin: "It depends on who your 
advisor is. It's really ridiculous— people in 
the music department advising students who 
are in math. If you have an advisor who 
is in your department and knows you, then 
you are lucky. My advisor is my friend, 



and she actually advises me, because she 
knows me. But if you have to go to an 
advisor only to preregister, then this system 
isn't worthwhile. Anyhow— where's it all fit 
in the Big Puzzle?" 

Ed King: "You should go to an advisor 
to pick out your own courses. He shouldn't 
tell you to take certain courses. So far, every 
time I've gone lo my advisor, I have had 
a general idea of what I'd taken, and what 
courses were required. My advisor has not 
been able to advise me; so far he's just 
there. I've made appointments with him for 
preregistering, and nothing else." 

These opinions do not necessarily show that 
the advisors are doing poor work. In an 
interview with Dean of Academic Affairs 
James Moore, it was found that most of 
the advisors are doing a good job. Dean 
Moore said the preregistration system as 
such was necessary so that departments 
could divide classes into various sections be- 
fore registration time. Even with such a sys- 
tem, students often change schedules. Our 
advisor system was divised so that Students 
could discuss any problems they may have 
with a faculty member. This would resolvfe 
any difficulties a student would have with 
course selection l>efore classes begin. Dean 
Moore admitted that there are students cap- 
able of preregistering by themselves, since 
they keep an accurate record of their courses, 
credits, and grades, but there are many stu- 
dents who are not mature enough, or do 
not think to keep such a record. For this 
reason, all students must observe a uniform 
system of preregistration to avoid extra 
work and confusion. 

Well, who is to blame for tlie problems 
created by such a system? Not all the ad- 
visors and not all the students. Those to 
blame are the students who don't know, or 
don't care who their advisors are, advisors 
who do not meet with their students after 
making an appointment, students who have 
no idea what courses they need to take, 
and advisors who have no idea what courses 
their advisees need to take. This does show 
a definite lack of faculty-student communi- 
cations. When can the present system be 
faultless? When all faculty members realize 
that students under 30 are not that bad, 
and when students realize that most faculty 
members are human and that they should 
take time to pay a visit to their "friendly" 
advisor. 



Muzyka Case to Be Appealed; 
Students Circulate Petition 



An appeal was presented to President 
James Gemmell yesterday concerning the re- 
cent dismissal of Jerry Muzyka, a senior 
majoring in Russian and a member of Alpha 
Gamma Phi fraternity. 

As a result of this incident, a petition is 
now being circulated throughout the campus, 
which advocates a change back to the judicial 
system of 1964, in which a student-faculty 
board made decisions on disciplinary mat- 
ters. This petition was presented to the 
president today. 

According to Mr. Emmett Graybill, assis- 
tant professor of political science. Jerry was 
charged with the verbal assault of a faculty 
member, creating a disturbance, and destroy- 
ing college property. He was found guilty on 
all three charges and dismissed from school 
for the remainder of the semester by Dr. 
Allan Elliott, dean of student affairs. 

A hearing was held on Thursday, Oct. 24, 
at which time all evidence was presented 
to Deans Elliott. Ethel Vairo, and Donald 
Nair with Dr. Elliott serving as chairman. 
Everyone present was permitted to express 
their opinions, and all factors were carefully 
considered by those present. Professors Em- 
mett Graybill, Lester D. Moody and Jay Van 
Bruggen represented Jerry as counsel. 

On Friday, Oct. 11. Jerry attended a dance 
at Forest Manor. According to one version 



of the testimony at the hearing, Jerry at- 
tended the dance in an intoxicated state, 
and as a result, picked up two di.shes, which 
were property of the state, and smashed 
them against the wall. Mr. Stanley Hallman, 
head resident of Forest Manor South and 
freshman basketball coach, saw what happen- 
ed, approached Jerry from behind, grabbed 
his shoulders, and thus initiated a shoving 
match. No blows were struck by either party, 
but abusive language was used in the con- 
versation. 

At the time. Jerry claimed that he did 
not recognize who Mr. Hallman was since 
he was approached from behind. 

Much of the evidence at the hearing was 
difficult to analyze because several conflict- 
ing views were presented. Mr. Hallman stat- 
ed that he would not have approached Jerry 
in the manner which he did if Jerry had 
not had a plate in his hand. Two witnesses 
spoke in behalf of Mr. Hallman, but neither 
could recall seeing the plate in Jerry's hand. 
In contrast. Jerry stated that he did not 
have a plate in his hand, and two student 
witnesses verified this fact. As a result, no 
definite conclusions were arrived at concern- 
ing this matter at the hearing. 

The hearing lasted about two and a half 
hours.

'Herr Biedermann and the Firebugs' Termed 
'Symbolic,' a 'Unique and Exciting Event' 



A FACULTY REVIEW 

By TERRY CAESAR 

The staging of "Herr Biedermann and the 
Firebugs, " continuing through tomorrow at 
the Chapel, is a unique and exciting event. 

Max Frisch's play, first pertbrmed in 1958 
and already a staple of modem drama, seems 
nevertheless a somewhat dated and flabby 
vehicle, and Director Bob Copland has right- 
ly sensed that it needs to be honed for con- 
temporary sensibilities. So he has designed, 
strictly speaking, an "event," or better, an 
experience, to amuse, repulse, engage, and, 
above all, consume. 

It is as an experience, in intent and effect, 
that the evening demands to be taken, and 
if the deliberateness of the former finally 
diminishes the force ol the latter, Mr. Cope- 
land, his cast and staff are to be highly 
commended tor the seriousness, spirit, and 
vigor of their efforts. 

The text, as those familiar with the Living 
Theatre or the off-Broadway productions of 
Tom 0-Horgan will already assume, simply 
provides the occasion for the real "play." 
The story itself is straightforward enough: 
tfie household of a respectable hair-lotion 
manufacturer. Herr Biedermann — who is a 
mixture of bourgeois piety, superficial "con- 
cern," and foolish egotism — is progressively 
seduced, invaded, and destroyed by an impish 
pair of arsonists or firebugs. Ken Miller, 
as Biedermann, and Veronica Smith and Betti 
Ferguson as his wife and maid, respectively, 
are all adequate to their roles, though Mr. 
Miller begins his characterization on too fran- 
tic and earnest a note, and instead of the 
poor fool who, in all the purity of his naivete, 
can't see what's going on in front of his 
own nose we are merely given the stupid 
ass who, in his willful blindness, completely 
deserves his fate. 

John Dorish, as Schmitz. one of the fire- 
bugs» and Steve Brezzo. as Eisenring, the 
other, are given by the dramatist more than 
sheer caricature to work with, and manage 
to sustain real idiosyncrasy. If Schmitz be- 
comes the more successful character, it is 
because he is played for irrepressible, sar- 
donic humor, underlined by a fierce cackle 
that suggests deeply self-indulgent evil; Ei- 
senring's Donald Duck quacking, though con- 
sistently amusing, evokes no similar depth 
of brutality. 

Indeed, one of the problems of the pro- 
duction is that the real brutality, the ex- 
perienced brutality, is provided by the chor- 
us—very effectively and intensely led by 
George Hall. These are the people who attack 



our senses and assault our minds throughout, 
demanding that we see what is happening 
on the stage that is actually our world. 

But we can only see it at best, we cannot 
feel it: Biedermann is too cloddish, his tor- 
mentors too lovable, the text itself too ob- 
vious ior that; the chorus is given the play 
to expound on and no matter how powerfully 
they perform, if their actions and words run 
counter to the message — and in a drama 
about the omnipresence of "fire" they have 
it all, dramatically— we have an evening 
whose effect becomes too diffuse. 

It is all highly entertaining of course: slides 
(from Viet Nam to Tiny Tim), screams (often 
banal: "Why can't people just talk to people, 
not at them?"), jokes ("Spiro Agnew is a 
latent human being") skits (the "graduation 
exercise," for example, is very funny), writh- 
ing bodies, swinging hips, flashing lights, pul- 
sating music, a mild touch of the dirty 
("Would you like a goose? "), a concluding 
dose of the nude — and this is not to mention 
the many gags in the play proper. 

The tempo ranges from the farcial to the 
psychedelic, the situations from the absurd 
to the silly; it is wild, maybe it should be 
wilder (and finally swallow the restraining 
Frisch text in one outrageous gulp), but cer- 
tainly it should all be seen by as many 
as the venerable Chapel can hold. 

But the ignorance and impotence which 
undermine all our choices, the terrible ironic 
distance between our knowledge and the 
world's truth, or the awareness of the force 
of what is not being said — these things are 
not to be found in "Biedermann, " and we 
remain helpless to deal with the firebugs 
of this world, the Schmitzes who paw our 
maids, except, as she does, by slugging them 
in the groin. 



ATTENTION STUDENTS 

The editors of the CLARION CALL are 
planning on changing the flag. The flag is 
found at the top of each issue which reads 
CLARION CALL. We would appreciate your 
ideas since this is YOUR paper. If you like 
the present flag we would like to hear your 
reasons. 

Any student who would like to design a 
new flag is urged to do so and submit it to 
the CALL office as soon as possible. 

We would like to have this change in ef- 
fect by the start of next semester. 



A STUDENT REVIEW 

By SUE FAIR 

A happening took place Wednesday evening 
at the College Chapel with the opening of 
Max Frisch's "Herr Biedermann and the 
Firebugs," which is being presented by the 
Department of Speech and Dramatic Arts 
through tomorrow night. 

The superficial story itself is not out of 
the ordiniiry. It revolves around the life of 
Herr Biedermann (Ken Miller) and Frau Bie- 
dermann (Veronica Smith), and Anna (Betti 
Ferguson), their maid; they take in and are 
taken in by Sepp Schmitz (John Dorish), 
circus wrestler, and Willi Eisenring (Steve 
Brezzo), a headwaiter recently released from 
prison. Both Sepp and Willi delight in the 
destruction of buildings and people by fire. 

Herr Biedermann, manufacturer of hair lo- 
tions, lived in a world of suspicion and fear, 
especially of firebugs, yet he continually re- 
fused to believe the truth about Willi and 
Sepp. He even saw and was confronted with 
the fuses, detonators, and gasoline in the 
attic where Sepp and Willi stayed. In this 
case, the end justifies the means, as Herr 
Biedermann really deserved his end. 

What was really important was the sym- 
bolism behind the cnaracters and their roles. 
This was brought out not only by each actor's 
portrayal of his role, but by Director Bob 
Copeland's use of a "firemen " chorus, ably 
led by George Hall. The hippie chorus is 
what's happening now; their overt actions 
and activities, rioting and dancing in the 
aisles, shouting about life and its decay. 



"forced" many members of the audience to 
participate. 

The chorus related the actions of the play- 
ers to the audience; they tried to warn not 
only Herr Biedermann but also today's so- 
ciety — the members of the audience — to wake 
up to reality. Asking the audience questions 
provided no response, but Dr. Mary Hard- 
wick of the Speech Department, when asked 
what she would do, answered best for the 
whole audience by saying "A fool gives you 
answers but a wise man never talks." 

I enjoyed the play and, though I did not 
quite understand the full extent of the sym- 
bolism, I felt that the play, as a social com- 
ment, gave evidence to convict man of the 
social crime of idly standing by and letting 
social evils go unchecked because he is too 
afraid or too preoccupied with his own affairs 
to be involved. 

The cast included; 

GottUeb Biedermann, Ken Miller: Babette. 
his wife, Veronica Smith; Anna, a maidser- 
vant, Betti Ferguson; Sepp Schmitz, a wrest-

On December 13t; Myers Article 
On Student Rights to Be Featured 



Student Center Opened Yesterday 



Yesterday morning, without fanfare and 
ribbon cutting, the lounge and game rooms 
of the Student Center were opened up. 

One half of the former basketball floor 
in Harvey Hall consists of a tasteful fur- 
nished lounge. Matching sets consisting of 
a sofa and several upholstered chairs in the 
same color occupy the room. Black, olive, 
reddish brown, beige, and "off-orange," as 
one student put it, are the colors of the 
matching sets of furniture. End tables, lamps, 
cylindrical urns for cigarette ashes also dot 
the room. A large color television set oc- 
cupies one comer. 

The other half of the large room is occupied 



by 14 pool tables, whose correct name is 
pocket-billiard tables, according to Cecil Cox, 
the night activities supervisor. 

In the former balcony are 11 card tables, 
whose tops have markings for checkers and 
chess playing. At 8 last night. 14 students 
were playing card games in the small game 
room, and another 14 were playing pool. 

The hours for the lounge and game rooms 
will be the same as the hours for the Student 
Union in the bottom floor of Harvey: open 
to 11 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 
on Sunday: open until midnight on Friday 
and Saturday. 



The Clarion Call will not publish 
issue.s on the next two Fridays, Novem- 
ber 29 and December 6. The next is- 
sue will appear on Friday, December 
13. 

. In that issue, which will be the 
only issue in the month of December, 
the Call expects to print an article 
about the role of students in college 
governance and to print brief com- 
ments on the article by several stu- 
dents and several faculty members. 

The article, titled "Communica- 
tion, Participation, and Democracy on 
the Campus," was written by Profes- 
sor Alonzo F. Myers, who was for many 
years chairman of the Department of 
Higher Education at New York Uni- 
versity. Although the article was orig- 
inally published in 1950 in the Harvard 
Educational Review, some of its ideas 
about greater participation by students 
in the determination of college poli- 
cies may be more timely now than 
they were 18 years ago. 



Pool Playing Appears to Be Popular 




ShoHii Above i» the Pool Room of the Newly Openeil (iaiiie aiid Lounge Area of the Stiideut Center 



Increasingly in recent years stu- 
dents on college campuses throughout 
the United States have charged that 
their formal education is irrelevant. 
Increasingly students have asked for a 
greater voice in the determination of 
college pohcies about curriculum, about 
housing regulations, about the selec- 
tion and retention of faculty members, 
and the like. For these reasons ,the 
editors and the advisor of the Call have 
decided to reprint Professor Myers' 
article and to invite several students 
and faculty members to comment on it. 
In general, they will be asked to make 
brief, specific comments on how well 
Clarion State measures up to some ol 
the issues in governing a college which 
Professor Myers discusses. 

The students and faculty members 
are being asked to comment on ques- 
tions such as these: Is there reasonable 
good communication between Clarion 
students and their teachers? Are stu- 
'^eats taking part in student govern- 
ment in a significant way? Are stu- 
dent opinions about curriculum, about 
housing regulations, and the like given 
proper consideration? 

The Call believes that reprinting 
the Myers article and some opinions 
about it— and inviting further com- 
ment in the form of letters to the edi- 
tor — will be a legitimate part of the 
self-examination which all colleges (stu- 
dent body, faculty, administration) must 
do periodically. As Clarion State starts 
its second century, the Call hopes that 
the Myers article may stimulate both 
a current of fresh idea.s and the re- 
examination of sound but forgotten 
ideas. i

THE CALL -- Clarion State College, Clarion, Pennsylvania 



Editorially 
Speaking 



CSC Students Want A Consistent 
Judieiary Board; A Return to the 
Previous Policy is Encouraged 



A recent student protest on this 
cam[)us erupted after a student was 
dismissed from college on a disciplin- 
ary matter. Many students felt that 
the involved student, Jerry Muzyka, 
was treated unfairly. Others felt that 
he deserved to be punished for his ac- 
tions, but that he was prosecuted in 
an unjust manner and that his punish- 
ment was too severe. Regardless of 
these varying viewpoints, an issue was 
raised which deserves careful consider- 
ation. ^ 

As most students know, a petition 
was circulated this week which con-, 
tained a plea to re-establish a disciplin- 
ary board which was abolished in 1965. 
The board consisted of five faculty 
members with one member serving as 
chairman and lour student menibers. 
This board was responsible for all dis- 
ciplinary actions, and acted as a non- 
administrative body, which attempted 
to deal fairly with such disciplinary 
matters. 

Mr. Edward Duffy, associate pro- 
fessor of history, who served as chair- 
man of this judiciary board in 1964, be- 
lieves that "it functioned very well." 
Ke pointed out that each member had 
one vote and that the chairman voted! 
only in the case of a tie. In addition, 
he stated that, as a general rule, stu- 
dents tended to be harder f on -their 
fellow students than the fafM^t^ niem- 
bors were. In any event, the system 
seemed to be a fair way of dealing with 
di.scipline matters. ' f- -^ 

When asked if he. would be in ifav-, 
or of a similar .sy.stem for Clarion stu- 
('<^hts this year, Mr. Duffy stated that: 
"II there would be a t;heck as 'to how' 



appointments are made, 1 would be in 
favor of the re-establishment of this 
judicial committee." 

Responsible students must be chos- 
en to serve on this board if it is put in- 
to effect because of individual pre- 
judices that are present among mem- 
bers of the student body. However, 
it .seems reasonable that the responsi- 
bility of disciplinary matters be placed 
in the hands of those other than the 
administration because administrators 
often make the charges. This being 
the case, a student doesn't stand a 
chance of receiving a totally fair evalu- 
ation because it is highly difficult for 
the accusers to be objective when they 
are also doing the prosecuting. 

The students on this campus de- 
serve to be given a consistent judiciary 
board. A return to the previous poli- 
cy would give the students an active 
part in considering the rights of their 
fellow students. 

F'or this reason, the administra- 
tion is urged to carefully weigh the 
evidence before deciding to accept or 
reject the petition. The students are 
i^&feking administration approval of this 
request — a request which will help to 
stabilize much of the conflict which 
often arises between the administra- 
tion and the student body. 



i 



The students feel that thev need 



this change, and their objections of the 
present system seem to be justified. 
Therefore, this paper endorses the pe- 
tition with the hope that the adminis- 
tration will comply with the wishes of 
the student body.

Do Students Need a 'Cut System?^ 



A "cut system" — does one exist 
at Clarion? The college c^oes not have 
nn official cut policy applying uniform- 
ly 'in all departments of the college. It 
has been the policy of the college for 
many vears that the faculty report 
three successive absences to the dean's 
office so that a routine check can be 
made as to the student's whereabouts. 
But no penalty or disciplinary meas- 
ures are attached. 

In the absence of a college-wide 
policy some individual departments 
have established a departmental policy. 
It is probably true in a sitwation where 
there is no departmental fyslicy, that 
the individual instructor lias often 
established his own cut policy. The 
faculty senate of Clarion State College 
has considered a college-wide cut sys- 
tem but has never been able to agree 
on anv acceptable system. 

Why do we need a cut system de» 
vi.sed by the college, the individual de- 
partments, or the instructor? .The stu- 
dehts should be mature enough to real- 
i'e the values that can be attained by 
attending the clas.ses. But if the stu; 
dent can grasp the material that is 
taught and can pass the exaWs, Why' 
should he be penalized for not attend- 
ing the class? 

.Another situation that oftfto Jirises 
is one involving illness. If a srtident 
does not feel well enough to go to cla.ss, 
be certainlv does not feel well enough 
to walk to the infirmary to get excused 
from classes. But this is the normal" 
procedure for procuring a "legal" ab- 
.':r'nce. Logically, if a student can walk 
to the infirmary, he can get to his class. 



The pressures placed upon a stu- 
dent by his professors are great. When 
a student has two or more exams sched- 
uled for the same day, the extra time 
that could be provided for studying 
by not having to attend classes could 
possibly help. But how can one cut a 
class without feeling guilty about the 
"illegal" absence, even if it is to study 
for an exam? 

Edinboro presently has a cut sys- 
tem comparable to the one existing at 
Clarion. But at Edinboro, through the 
combined efforts of students and facul- 
ty, a revised cut system policy is going 
into the final stages of adoption. Their 
proposed cut system entails four basic 
ideas: One, a "cut system" as is pres- 
ently in operation would be abolished 
for upperclassmen; Two, the present 
system would be applicable to fresh- 
men at the instructor's discretion; 
Three, if a student misses a quiz, test, 
or lab, he can be given a "0" for the 
assignment at the instructor's discre- 
tion: and Four, no student after his 
freshmen year can be penalized for any 
class absence. We can see no reason 
why Clarion can not establish a sys- 
tem that is oomnarable to the one being 
devised at Edinboro. 

Professors of CSC, at the end of 
tHfe ."^cmester, when you are making out 
your grades, recall your own experi- 
eiVces in college and the times you may 
have cut a class or the times you want- 
ed, to cut but didn't out of fear of los- 
ing your grade. Try not to drop a stu- 
dent's grade unjustly.

Letters to The Editor 



Student Reacts to Editorial Gammas Take a Stand 



To the Editor: 

1 am writing this letter in reference to the 
editorial in last week's Call. I feel that I am 
qualified to write this letter because my 
father is the manager of the cafeteria at 
Duquesne University. Previous to this ap- 
pointment, he was manager oi the cafeteria 
at Steuben ville College. Steuben ville College 
is approximately the same size as Clarion, 
and they pay the same price lor their meals 
as we do. but the meals they are served are 
of a higher quality than the ones that we 
are served. 

For example, they are served steak fre- 
quently and at the dinner meal they are 
served two cuts of meat. At breakfast they 
are served real orange juice and not the 
conglomeration we are forced to drink. The 
three cheapest juices on the market are 
tomato juice, grapefruit juice, and apple 
cider— the three juices we are served every 
mornijig. 

Furthermore, at Steubenville, the students 
are allowed" to choose the type of eggs they 
want, and they are cooked to order so that 
the students do not have to eat cold eggs. 
They can also eat as many desserts as they 
wish. > 

1 feel that the problem is ba|ically one of 
ooor management. If they w'^6 to use a 
ittle imagination, they could find ways to 
save money, but still .serve meals of a higher 
quality and of a larger quantity! 

JOHN HANKEY 

student Comments on Food 

To the Editor: 

I would like to comment on the editorial 
concerning the cafeteria in last week's Call. 
I feel that the preparation of the food is the 
major factor in this issue. 

The food on the whole is undercooked and 
overgreased. Certainly, the food cannot be 
expected to taste exceptionally good because 
of the large quantities it must be prepared in, 
but if they could plan and prepare the menu* 
with more care, the over-all quality of the 
meals could be improved. 

If an optional plan could be introduced, the 
quality of the meals served would have to be 
increased so as to attract enough students 
to purchase a meal ticket so that the cafe- 
teria could operate with a profit. 

WAYNE ELLIS 



To the Editor: 

We are writing this letter in support of a 
plea that is being issued by the students and 
the faculty of CSC. 

It is our opinion that the current system of 
determining disciplinary action is unfair. A 
student brought to trial faces an unwelcome 
.Mgiii ot a Uiuuiiai vMiosfc meinoers work out 
of the Dean of Students office. We feel that a 
jury such as this can be nothing but biased. 

We say: change to a system where a jury 
may be chosen from a cross-section of the 
college community, not a three-office c.ique. 
This new system will need to set a precedent 
and deline its position on matters of decision. 
Since the abolition of a previous judicial 
board, there have been no set rules govern- 
ing the actions of the students. All disciplin- 
ary action was left in the hands of one per- 
son who changed his attitudes as each situa- 
tion arose. This offered little stability as far 
as definite guidelines are concerned. 

We have seen and borne the brunt of the 
decisions made by the current system. Help 
by each .student is necessary to brin^ at)out 
a new one. When the brothers of Alpha 
Gamma Phi are .standing up, will the rest 
of CSC be sitting down? 

ANDY BRINDGER, 

President of Alpha Gamma Phi 

IPC Urges Students to 
Support Petition 

To the Editor: 

At our meeting on Tuesday, Nov. 9, the 
Interirafernity Council was presented with 
a petition which purports to re-establish a 
student- faculty judiciary board. The purpose 
of this board would be to rule on student 
disciplinlry problems. 

We feel that the present system for hand- 
ling such matters could be improved. We feel 
that the judiciary board composed of stu- 
dents and faculty appointees wmdd be a far 
more democratic form of disciplinary action. 

For this reason the Interfraternity Council 
voted unanimously to support the proposals 
of this petition. 

Sincerely yours, 

BOB AMENT, President of IPC 



NSA Invites Students to Join 
Record Club — For a $2 Fee 



By DICK MEARS 

As another service, the National Student 
As.sociaticn o.'fers the student the NSA Re- 
cord Club. Students at Clarion State College 
are now eligible to get the best deal on 
records from NSA. For a lifetime member- 
ship fee of $2, you can take advantage of 
the many bene. its provided by this club. For 
inst. nee, you may choose any LP on any 
lal>el— mono or stereo. Discounts on these 
records range up to 79 percent off with prices 
of some records as low as 99 cents an album. 
Every record is brand new, first quality, 
factory fresh and guaranteed fully returnable. 

The NSA Record Club is no ordinary re- 
cord club. Ordinary clubs make you choose 
from just a few labels, usually their own. 
They make you buy up to 12 records a year, 
at full price, to fulfill your obUgaUon. If 
you forget to return Iheir montiU^ card, ttey 



send you a record you don't want and bill 
you late for $5 or $3. 

NSA, however, lets ^ )u choose anv LP 
on any label including .tcw releases. Tapes 
can be bought without Ui 'txtra" member- 
ship fee demanded by other clubs. As a mem- 
ber of the NSA Record Club, you mav order 
as many or as few, or no .selections at

for an album and yo" lever pay $1 extra 
for stereo. 

NSA Record Club is an Inu'ererdcit club, 
not ownci*, controlled, or snbsidiicu oy any 
record manufacturer anywHer-;. Therefore, 
they are never obliged bv "company policy" 
to push any one label or honor any manu- 
facturer's price. "Conventional" clubs can't 
keep record prices down because they are 
manipulated by the manufacturers who want 
to itei'p record prices up.

Second Annual Band Revue 
Is Held in Tippin Gym 



The Band Members' 
Viewpoint . . . 

By BETTY CURLEY 

A blare of trumpets and a roll of drums, 
and the Second Annual Mnrchiiig Band Hc- 
\uc> had begun. In a deep, resonant voice, 
ti>(- (run major. Cortex Puryear, introduced 
Dr. Stanley Michalski. the director. Cor- 
tez preceded each numt>cr with a short ex 
planation of the circumstances under which 
the music had fir.st been introduced to the 
public. 

One of the numbers played was Song for 
the Young, a tune wrilttn especially lor the 
second annual Band Day Production. This 
tune was directed by the composer, Mr. 
Rex Mitchell, a member of Clarion's music 
faculty. The band enjoyed playin:^ his num- 
bers as well as some arrangemeiits by Mr. 
Burton Hardin, another member of the music 
sla'f. At the end ol the co.icert, the band 
gave a .standing ovation to Mr. Mitchell, in 
grateful acknowledgement lor his services. 

To this member of the band, the size of 
the crowd was surprisin;;. The audience in- 
cluded parents, faculty, townspeople, and ma- 
ny more stuilents than had been cxijected. 
The acou.stics in the new gymnasium helped 
the band in some numbers, but often the 
linal notes of the tunes reverberated alter 
the numbers were ended. This in no way 
detracted from (he music. In fact, Ihe music 
was sonorous and stirring, proving that the 
disciplines of working in a marching band 
hold good in a concert situation. 

In the drum .solos to Slaughter on 10th 
Avenue, Ron Nash, Tom Seng, and Ken Mc- 
Nulty were outstanding. They demonstratt'd 
talents that even many of us in the band 
did not know they possessed. 

.As a last minute addition. Undecided us- 
hered in the second half of the program. 
For many seniors the revue was their final 
appearance with the band, and they played 
their hearts out. And, as band members left 
the gym, the recording of the program could 
be heard, loud and clear, in the night air. 
Despite a little nervousness before the per- 
formance, it did well. Said one player, "I 
felt that it went rather well. The music was 
played with the same spirit we had during 
the games. Along with the good playing goes 
Dr. Michalski's fine directing." 

Cortez put the finishing touches to his sea- 
.son as drum major of the Golden Eagle 
Marching Band by directing the group in 
the college fight song, Carry on for Clarion. 
After a series of encores, the Marching Band 
sea.son was ended for another year. 



Especially interesting were the faces of 
the children; their smiles were indications 
that they enjoyed the show. They particularly 
enjoyed the marches the band played. The 
children stamped their feet to the beat of 
the "Bombasto March," "North and South 
College All-Stars," and 'March Grandio.so," 
which was enhanced by the baton-twirling of 
Janice Hoffman, who performed for the last 
time as Clarion's Golden Girl. 

A special feature of the program was the 
songs written by Rex Mitcheii, assiSi.ani pro- 
fessor of music. "Song for the Young," which 
he wrote for the second annual Band Day, 
was also directed by him. Thi.s song anJ 
his ' Koek on (he Wild Side" have become 
favorites not only of the band but also of 
many of the .students and iaculty. 

Near the end of the program. Dr. Michalski 
gave special recognition to Cort"z Purvear, 
who captivated football crowds with his antics 
as drum major and who served as announcer 
for the program. Corky' then directed 'Car- 
ry on for Clarion," the official Clarion fight 
song. The Alma Mater completed the sche- 
duled performance, but the people remained 
in their seats, and Dr. Michalski led the 
band through .some additional numbers, end- 
ing with "When the Saints Go Marching In." 

Lea\ ing the gym after the program, I over- 
heard such comments as "I really enjoyed 
that," "Wasn't that good!" '1 liked the 
'Song for the Young' the best;" one elderly 
lady in her seventies exclaimed, "My, but 
wasn't tliat nice!" while a student proclaim- 
ed "it was neat." 



Calendar of 
Coming Events 



The Audience's 
Viewpoint . . . 

By SUE FAIR 

A week ago yesterday, the Golden Eagles 
.Marching Band, under the direction of Dr. 
Stanley Michalski, entertained many stu- 
dents, faculty, and Clarion residents when 
they presented their second annual Marching 
Band Revue in Tippin Gymnasium. 

After starting the program with the Na- 
tional Anthem, the band played a composite 
of those songs which they had presented as 
their half-time shows at CSC football games. 
The numbers included such familiar favorites 
as "Camptown Races," "The Stripper," "Ca- 
rousel," and "Autumn Leaves," v/hich had 
been performed especially for the Autumn 
Leaf Festival-Homecoming parade and game 
on October 12. Other favorites were "Bicycle 
Built for Two," and a sports medley, which 
included "Take Me Out to the Ball Game." 

Of special interest to me was the favorable 
reaction of the audience. Although all the 
songs were well received, the audience 
seemed to especially enjoy those theme songs 
from programs which are currently popular 
on television, such as Mission Impossible, 
Gunsmoke, the Lawrence Welk Show (which 
was appreciated more by the older members 
of the audience), and the theme of the United 
Airlines commercial. Another favorite was 
the band's performance of "Slaughter on 10th 
Avenue," arranged by Burton Hardin, as.so- 
ciate professor of music

Two Chinese Girls are Impressed 
By Life in America and at CSC 



By ANN ROHRBAUGH 

Two Oriental girls, Margaret Tai and Anita 
Lui, are students at CSC this year. Margaret, 
a sophomore, and Anita, a freshman, are 
both from Hong Kong, but the similarity 
ends there. 

Margaret was born in Hong Kong and lived 
there until 1932, when her family moved to 
the United States. Her father — who graduated 
from a medical school in the U.S., worked 
with refugees during World War II, and had 
established a private practice in Hong 
Kong— decided to move the family to the 
United States because of the better opportun- 
ities for the children, especially in education. 

The family, including Margaret, her par- 
ents, her sister, and two brothers, packed 
their belongings and moved to Collegeville, 
Pa., outside of Philadelphia. There they 
joined her three sisters and one brother who 
had already moved to the United States. 

While in Hong Kong, Margaret attended 
an Anglo-Saxon private girl's school. Though 
the native language of the area is Cantonese, 
a Chinese dialect, all of Margaret's classes 
were conducted in English. Through her fa- 
ther she met many American friends who 
visited in Hong Kong, but she found Ameri- 
can English to be different from the English 
she had learned in school. At first Margaret 
had some problems with the language, but 
she soon adjusted to the American idiom. 

Schools Different 

Margaret found the schools in America to 
be quite different from those she had attended 
in Hong Kong. There the students had more 
subjects than in the United States' schools 
and they had no choice as to which courses 
they wanted to take. The Chinese schools 
also had no type of student council or student 
government as most schools in the U.S. have. 
Margaret added that there are government- 
supported schools, but they are mainly at- 
tended by those students from the families 
with a lower income. Even at these schools 
however a small tuition fee is charged. 

As a business administration major, Mar- 
garet hopes to become a buyer or a repre- 
sentative from a U. S. company in Hong 
Kong. Realizing that this may take several 
years, Margaret would like to return to visit, 
although most of her friends are attending 
schools throughout the United States and Eur- 
ope. 

Anita Lui 

Anita was born in Shanghai on mainland 
China, but she moved to Hong Kon^ when 
she was nine years old. Her father, a cap- 
tain on an American oil tanker, traveled all 
over the world, but when he returned to 
Hong Kong, Anita and her mother would 
go to meet him there. Once Jhey just re- 
mained in Hong Kong so that her father 
could contact them easier and would have 
a family to return to when he was in port. 

In Hong Kong. Anita attended a private 
Ecfiopl. Some of her classes were in English 
and others in various Chinese dialects, so con- 
sequently she is quite fluent in English as 
well as in variations of Chinese. 

'^ere are few colleges in Hong Kong and 
only one university. If Anita had remained 
at home she probably would have become 
an airline hostess and attended night clashes 
to earn enough credits to enter the Univer- 
sity of Hong Kong. Instead she decided to 
come to the United States and applied to 
Clarion. 

Naturally the question that Anita is most 
frequently asked is how she happened to 



hear of Clarion. "Well," she replies, 'I had 
a friend who attended Clarioi\ and I heard 
about it from him." Clarion also appealed 
to her because it offers library science and 
because it is a small college where she would 
be able to meet more people and adju.st 
more easily to the new way of life in ^ 
foreign country. 



Food Change 



The food has been one of the biggest chan- 
ges for Anita. She says the Chinese food 
has more variety of flavors, and she was 
used to fresh fruits and vegetables daily. 
She is anxiously awaiting Thanksgiving and 
Christmas because for Thanksgiving she is 
going home with her roommate who has pro- 
mised her "some good American food." Anita 
plans to visit Margaret's family over the 
Christmas holidays and she is looking for- 
ward to eating Chinese food again. 

Anita says she has found everyone to be 
very friendly and helpful, including her pro- 
fessors who realize that she sometimes does 
not understand all of their English. Anita 
also has trouble understanding the humor 
and sarcasm of Americans. She was sur- 
prised to see American girls wearing slacks 
in public, but she is quickly adjusting to 
the different customs. 

As a library science major, Anita hopes 
to work in a school library and eventually 
earn a master's degree. Presently she thinks 
she may remain in the United States after 
graduation, but she's not yet sure. 

Both Margaret and Anita said that Hong 
Kong is being modernized as the government 
is constructing new apartment buildings in 
an effort to eliminate the slum areas. The 
people are also changing their customs and 
most are adopting clothing and manners 
which are western in origin. 

Concern Expressed 

Margaret and Anita expressed concern 
about the pohtical situation in Hong Kong. 
The island of Hong Kong was ceded by China 
to Britain in 1841. Kowloon and the New 
Territories, both located on the peninsula 
from mainland China, are also under British 
control. Kowloon was ceded to Britain in 1860 
and the New Territories were leased to her 
in 1896 for 99 years. Both girls doubt that 
China will renew the lease for the New Terri- 
tories and that Communist China will take 
over the area. 

Anita said that there have been recent 
protests in Hong Kong about the American 
policy in Vietnam. A union strike concern- 
ing the raise in ferry prices was the excuse 
for the Communists to stir up trouble in 
Hong Kong. Anita said that many people 
were quite upset and thought the Commun- 
ists were taking over. In fact, some even 
fled the country and came to the United 
States. Things have settled back to normal 
now, however. 

Anita and Margaret are good friends and 
enjoy discussing various places in Hong Kong 
and conversing in Chinese. Both seem to 
miss their native country at times, but on 
the whole they enjoy college hfe in America.

Eajiles 2iicl ill West Freshman Team Looks Good^ 



Wm 



Pictured above are the Golden Eagle wrestlers for the 1968-69 season. Returning this season are eight l^termen. 



Foollmll Team 
To Lose 12 Men 

When the Clarion State Golden Eagles 
closed out tlieir lootball season Nov. 9 
against Slippery Rock, there were 12 men 
who played their last game lor the Blue 
and Gold. 

Nine are irom the defensive unit and the 
other three from the offense. For the defense 
they are: Roy Smeltz, safety; Fred Wicks- 
trom, defensive halfback; Fran Sirianni, safe- 
ty; Paul McDowell, defensive end; Art Tra- 
gesser, linebacker; Bob Gevaudan, defensive 
tackle; George Pasierb, defensive tackle; 
Jim Jones, defensive tackle; and Rick Mc- 
Williams, defensive end. Five holes will be 
Icfl in the defensive line and four in the 
secondary line. 

Cnlibor of Men High 

The offensive team won t be so hard hit 
since ,;?raduation will take only three players. 
They are: Jim Becker, wingback; Bill Wise, 
fullback; and Joe Lavella, guard. 

Its not so much how many graduation 
takes, but the caliber of men it takes. Becker 
is Erdeljac's prime target. His sure hands 
have caught many a touchdown pass, in- 
cluding the winning pass from Jim Alcorn 
in the 1936 championship ganae. unabliag^Cla- 
rion to defeat Chester, 28-26. Wise was Cla- 
rion's hard nosed fullback who would pick 
up the yard or two in a third down and 
short yardage situation. Joe Lavella is an- 
other member of the list of unsung heroes 
who played in "the pit." Game after game, 
Joe wouid do his job and do it well without 
much recognition except from the players 
and the coaches. 

On the other side of the line stand five 
very tall men (averaging 6 feet, 1 inch, and 
weighing 208 pounds). They are McDowell 
and McWilliams at ends and Gevaudan, Pa- 
sierb. and Jones at tackle. These are the 
men who dish out all the punishment in try 
ing to get to the quarterback and get pun- 
ished in return. The brutality that goes on 
in the line can be compared to when the 
Christians were thrown to the lions. 

Imprensive Record 

Backing up the line is Art Tragesser. The 
linebacker is the balance between the line 
and the .secondary, guarding against the run 
but always alert for the pass. A linebacker 
figures in at least 40 percent of the plays. 
Art has been a bulwark of strength in filling 
this position. 

In the secondary. Clarion is retiring three. 
They are Smeltz, Wickstrom, and Sirianni. 
These players put up an umbrella of protec- 
tion in delending against the pass, but they 
have to be quick to react in coming up 
for sweeps. 

Through the year, these 12 players have 
been the leaders of the team and have given 
guidance to the younger players through their 
experiences. 

Of these seniors there have been four who 
have obtained the player of the week award 
this past year — Wickstrom for his perfor- 
mance in the Geneva game, Wi.se in the 
Mansfield game, Jones against Lock Haven, 
and Becker again.st Indiana. 

Over the three years these men have been 
playing togethar, they have played their part 
in compiling a 29 and .5 record; 10 and 
in 1966. 8 and 2 in 1967, and 6 and 3 in 
19C8. a very impressive record for any team. 



A REMINDER . . .

each show is 2,n<!it. 



Grapplers Look Forward to a 
Good Year; Team to Travel 
To Annapolis, Md., Tuesday 



Clarion's wrestlers travel to Annapolis, 
Md., on Tuesday for their first exhibition 
against the Naval Academy. This preseason 
match will be a good preview of the team's 
strengths and weaknesses. 

Last year the matmen, coached by Robert 
Bubb and Neil Turner, finished with an 11-2 
record and a fourth place in the Pennsylvania 
State College Conference, which Coach Bubb 
termed as "disappointing." Clarion also 
placed 11th in the NAIA, which is composed 
of 67 teams; for the first time, Clarion com- 
peted in the NCAA, where they finished in 
a tie for 42nd place out of the 103 teams 
competing. 

As a base for this yjear's squad, Coach Bubb 
has eight returning lettcrmen. They are: Ray 
Day, 115-pound class, who finished third in 
the PSCC; Phil Detore, 123-pound class, who 
finished first in the PSCC; Don Knisely, 130- 
pound class; Bob Tcagarden, 137-145-pound 
classes; Doug Niebel, 152-pound class, who 
finished fourth in the PSCC; Bob Schmidt, 
160-pound class, who finishea fourth in mt 



PSCC; Santo Ricotta, 177-pound class, who 
finished second in the PSCC; and John Sch- 
mader, 191-pound class. 

Eliminations are now in progress to de- 
termine who will fill the 11 weight classes. 
Coach Bubb stated that the team is possibly 
stronger than it was last year in the weight 
classes of 115 pounds to 167 pounds. His only 
questionable weight classes are 177 pounds, 
191 pounds, and the unlimited class. John 
Schmader and four promising sophomores 
are now vying for these positions. These hea- 
vyweights hold the key to improving last 
year's record; if these grapplers come 
through. Clarion has an excellent chance to 
win the PSCC wrestling crown. 

The team officially opens its season on 
Saturday, Dec. 7, in a quadrangular tourna- 
ment in Tippin Gym which will feature Ho- 
ward University of Wa.shington, D.C., Brock- 
port State College of New York, and Frost- 
burg College of Maryland. The meet begins 
at 10:30 a.m. and the finals begin at 4 p.m. 



Although a little disappointed in failing to 
take three Western Conference (PSCAC) 
titles in a row, statistics show the Golden 
Eagles have much to be proud of in copping 
the second place spot. 

Never one to rest on his laurels, Coach Al 
Jacks nonetheless can find some real satis- 
faction in his record since coming to Clarion 
State College in 19u3. After posting a 4-4 
slate that year, he stepped out to tie for 
second place in 19J4, sewed up the second 
slot in 1935, and copped the conference tro- 
phies in 19 J6 and 1967. 

A look at this season's card shows the 
Eagles garnering 228 points to 131 for the foes 
and a most impressive total yardage figure 
of 3148 to 2540. Touchdowns made were 32-18 
and points after touchdown .stand at 31 14. 
The Jacksmen accounted for one safety but 
were lacking in the field goal department 
while the opponents racked up three. 

In total first downs, Clarion State was out 
in front. 135 129, This represented 48 first 
downs rushing to the oppositions' 67; first 
downs passing, 77-50, and first downs on pen- 
alties. 10-12. 

On the ground, the Eagles mounted 424 
rushes to 436 for the foes, representing a 
1540 1576 yardage figure. Rushing losses, 
however, were 205-318, yielding a net gain 
of 1335 for Clarion and 1258 for the rivals. 

In the passing category, the Jacksmen 
showed their greatest strength, attempting 
258 to 230 for the foes. Completions showed a 
136-101 figure. They intercepted 17 passes 
and had 13 of their own intercepted. 

At their best in tlie air, the Eagles lived 
up to their name in winging for 1813 yards 
against 1282 for the opposition. 

In other statistics, the Clarion State squad 
booted 46 punts to 59 for the rivals, barely 
shading them, 34.4-34.3, in punting averages. 
They bested the competition, 306-125, in yards 
gained on punt returns, but fell behind, 442- 
469, in yardage on kickoff returns. 

Penalties took their toll this year, with the 
Eagles set back 481 yards for infractions to 
383 for the opponents. In fumbling, however, 
it was 9-19, and seven of these were lost 
against 13 for the foes. 

Open House to Be Held 

A wrestling demonstration by the members 
and coaches of the team will be featured

Tiger or lamb: 
who makes 
the best CPA? 




Men who move in flocks don't make 
the best CPAs. 

The CPA often hunts for answers 
in wild new country. He's constantly 
trying to solve problems that have no 
pat solutions. He needs conceptual 
imagination and conviction — and 
guts. He may have to defend his an- 
swers (like a tiger) when he thinks 
he's right. 

The demand for CPAs is growing 
fast. Whether they are in independent 
practice or part of the top manage- 
ment team of a company, they are 
taking on increasing responsibility in 
financial and business affairs. 

You can select the college courses 
that can help you earn a CPA certifi- 
cate 8oon after graduation. Or you 
can take them in graduate school. 
Ask your faculty advisor about them. 

It you**!! drop a card or note to us, 
we'll be glad to send you a booklet 
with the whole jCPA story. 

Write: Dept. AD-1. PICPA, 1100 
Lewis Tower Bldg., Phila., Pa. 19102. 

Read it before you decide whether 
your answer to our question is ''G-r- 
r-r" or "li-a-a-a."

Close Out Season With 3-2 Record 



Prospects for continued good football at 
Clarion State looked brighter than ever as 
the Golden Eagle freshmen closed out their 
five-game schedule Monday with a 21-0 win 
over Edinboro. 

It was a rewarding series for freshman 
coach, Neil Turner, whose fledglings came 
back strong in the final trio of games after 
a disappointing start in losing to Indiana 
University of Pennsylvania (25-7) and Slip- 
pery Rock (14-8). 

Recovering in fine fashion, the Eagles were 
not scored on again, while scoring 65 points 
over the opponents in the last three outings. 

Four freshman running backs had over 
three yards per play carrying average in 
the persons of Gary Munsch, Fred Rost and 
Tom Olszewski, of Pittsburgh, and Jeff Tho- 
mas, Erie. Nine players scored the season's 
12 touchdowns. 

Quarterback hopeful Will Roncone, Corao- 
polis, who threw seven touchdown passes over 
the season, scored the only marker in the 
opening contest against Indiana on a one-yard 
run. Gary Maschak, Johnstown, kicked the 



extra point. 

Bill Bann, Glenshaw, broke into the scor- 
ing column against Slippery Rock, with Jeff 
Thomas running Jhe two-point conversion. 

Snapping into high gear against California, 
Turner's hopefuls scored a 130 shutout. John 
Mauro, Oakmont, capitalized on a 13-yard 
pass from Roncone. Bann scored the other 
tally on a one-yard run with Maschak con- 
verting one extra point. 

Avenging their earlier defeat by Slippery 
Rock, the young Eagles drubbed the Rockets, 
31-0. Munsch scored on a five yard run, Pitts- 
burgh's Dave Jennings scored two markers 
on eight and 62yard pass plays, and Kent 
Hart, Punxsutawney, and Fred Rost scored 
on 18-yard runs and 13yard pass plays, re- 
spectively. Maschak kicked the one extra 
point. 

Sweetest of all was the final 21-0 victory 
over Edinboro, who had previously beaten 
Indiana, 52-6. Rost scored on a three-yard 
run, Munsch on a one yarder and Bann on 
a 11 yard pass play. Maschak kicked all three 
extra points.

ucation curriculum. After graduation, he 
plans to teach in high school and to coach 
a basketball team.

captain and playmaker, Joe scored a total 
of 242 points in 16 games, for an overall 
average of 15 points per game.

Pre-Season Warmup 
To Be Held Monday 

Basketball at Clarion State College will get 
underway at 7:30 p.m. Monday when the 
Golden Eagle hoopsters stage a pre-season 
warmup Blue and Gold game. 

The inter-squad contest will be the first 
regulation game on the new Tippin Gym- 
nasium floor. In addition to its morale-build- 
ing effect, the game will permit coaches to 
evaluate their material and strategy prior 
to the first intercollegiate home contest with 
Walsh College on Dec. 4. 

Played under regular basketball rules, the 
game will see Coach John Joy separate his 
squad into two teams composed of equal 
parts of veteran and novice material. 

A diving exhibition will follow the game 
featuring freshmen swimmers Pat Kiehl and 
Tom Brandtonies in addition to Donald Leas. 
Clarion State director of health, physical ed- 
ucation and recreation. 

Pat and Tom are former varsity swimmers 
at Valley High School, New Kensington, and 
Baldwin High School, Pittsburgh, respective- 
ly. 

The public is cordially invited to view these 
exhibitions and to inspect the basketball and 
swimming facihties at Tippin Gymnasium.

Bob hopes to teach and later to coach his 
own team. 

In addition to being a member of Alpha 
Gamma Phi, Bob is interested in most sports, 
especially football and basketball. Practically 
every Sunday afternoon in the fall, he can 
be found watching the pro games on televi- 
sion. He also appreciates good music and 
good novels. 

In 19C6, Bob was the team's second highest 
scorer and leading rebounder, as well as 
a Western Conference all-star second team 
choice. 




LARRY KUBOVCHICK 

Larry Kubovchick also plans to teach and 
to coach. He is a 6-foot, 2-inch, 185-pound 
forward from Bishop McCort High School 
in Johnstown. Next semester, he too will 
be doing his student teaching in his major 
field of social studies. He is also a member 
of Alpha Gamma Phi, and he lists his inter- 
ests as his classes and the piano. 

Following the 1966-67 season, Larry was 
a unanimous first team all-star choice in 
the Western Conference, as well as Clarion's 
leading scorer. He was also the third leading 
scorer in the Pennsylvania State College Con- 
ference.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR 



President Accepts Petition; 
Committee to Be Appointed 



In (be last issue of the CALL, an editorial 
uas published which endorsed a petition 
snrportin;; the esiablishinent of a judicial 
body at Clarion. The following is an open 
reply from President Gemmell to the en- 
tire student body, faculty, and adminis- 
tration. 

FJditor, The CaU: 

The petition concerning di.iciplinary proced- 
ures, which you reported in the Call before 
Thanksgiving, was received in my office 
btarin:; the siimaturcs of a substantial num- 
ber ot students and faculty signed under the 
title of 'The College Comnuinity." I take 
tliis opportunity to respond to that commun- 
ity. 

I agree fully with the request to have a 
procedure established which provides, ia dis- 
ciplinary cases, lor an impartial hearing 
board conipo.sed of representatives from both 
the faculty and the student body. This would 
afford maximum due process in the adjudica- 
tion of individual rights and privileges while, 
at the same time, relieving the Office of 
Student Affairs from the responsibihty of 
serving in both an administrative and an 
adjudicative capacity. 

Consequently, I shall appoint a special com- 
mittee composed of both students and faculty 
to study the matter and to come up with 



a recommendation on how best to institution- 
alize such a system. This committee will 
also have the temporary assijjnment, before 
it is discharged from its duties, of serving 
as the review board in disciplinary actions 
which might arise before the new system 
is finally installed. 

I am pleased to have such direct evidence 
in hand that .students and faculty at Clarion 
State College care about such things. A free 
society rests upon the principle of freedom 
under the law. Thus, when the rules of behav- 
ior are applied in an individual case, freedom 
for the individual can be assured as a mat- 
ter of principle and practice only by the 
use of institution-aligned due process. 

As for the specific case now in my office 
on appeal, a careful evaluation is under way, 
ba.sed upon an established record, which in 
dicates misconduct in violation of College 
rules evidentially and admittedly. This appeal 
has been filed under the procedures existing 
before the case arose and, therefore, is not 
necessarily a reflection upon the original pro- 
cess itself nor upon those who participated 
in it. When the evaluation of the case is 
completed, the student involved will be noti- 
fied in writing. 

JAMES GEMMELL, 

President of Clarion State College 



Variety Show Will Have 
^Something for Everyone^ 



A variety show, scheduled for 8:15 Thurs- 
day evening in the college chapel, has been 
described by one of its directors as having 
"something for everyone" and as being "a 
night to remember." 

Directed by Carl Glass and Cece Carter, 
the variety show will include 19 performers 
in 13 acts. The acts will cover a large range 
of talents: folk music, rock-and-roll, blues, 
jazz, solos of popular songs, several comedy 
acts, and even yodeling. A surprise finale 
will be the highlight of the evening. 

The performers are not only college stu- 



dents, but people from the surrounding area, 
including a group from Knox. Since it is 
being advertised in Brookville, Oil City, Knox, 
and the surrounding area, a large crowd 
is expected. Admission is free and will be 
on a first come, first served basis. 

The variety show is being sponsored by 
Alpha Psi Omega, the National Honorary 
Dramatics Fraternity. Members of the local 
chapter. Alpha Upsilon, make up much of 
the cast and are helping with the arrange- 
ments. 



REVIEW OF FACULTY TRIO 



When Playing is Flawless, 
Musical Order is Clear 



By AATIS E. LILLSTROM 

A»sistuni Professor, Aatlio-Visual Communiratlons 

Listening to music is an endless adventure 
in synchronization. There are so many levels 
of synchronization. There are so many levels 
of adjustment within and between the play- 
ers, within and between the players and the 
musical design, within and between the play- 
ers and the musical design and the listener. 

The musical design is like mvisible draw- 
ings that can only exist in the mind of the 
listener. When the playing is flawless, the 
musical design is clear. When the playing 
falters, the design becomes like water in 
■ glass and water and glass— transparent but 
a distortion or veil of the original conception. 
Anyone can hear all these levels of synchroni- 
zation when they listen, and listen to their 
listening. 

I en.joy listening to the musical conception 
become clear to the point of invisible by 
expert playing; then the composer is design- 
ing with invisible sound across the length 
of my attention. The faculty recital was often 
expertly invisible. I also enjoy it when play- 
ing within and between the players falters 
ever so slightly, when the design comes from 
the invisible into the clarity of water in glass 
and water and glass; the distortions turn 



and stretch the musical design showing how 
cleverly the original design waj fashioned. 

Attention Wanders 

Even those whose attention wanders frim 
listening can notice. Mostly the players notice 
before the other listeners and so, of course, 
they might understand the function of faults 
better. But what they hear is not what we 
in the audience hear and the difference is 
great and so one wonders where the composer 
was listening from when he wrote it. The 
players wonder this at times, many times 
and of course changing thinking about listen- 
ing, changes playing. If one listened one could 
hear the changes as they thought and played 
and listened, and I did and was pleased 
much more than I was disappointed. 

So much of playing is touching and not 
touching and all that is so close to emotion. 
When you listen to the touch, you cannot 
hear the instrument; the intention is louder 
than the abstraction. When you hear the qual- 
ity of the instrument, the playing is excel- 
lently invisible to all but emotion. The fabric 
of emotion is rare only when the pauses 
are weighed as the sounds and when the 
large pattern of the abstraction is the plane 
of attention to which the playing is aimed. 
If one listened, one could hear all of this

CSC Concert Choir and Symphony 
Combine Forces to Present 
Christmas Concert on Monday 



This year's Christmas Concert will feature 
the combined forces of the Clarion State 
College Concert Choir and the Clarion State 
College Symphony Orchestra, under the di- 
rection of William McDonald, in the pre- 
sentation of J. S. Bach's cantata, Lobet Go.t 
and Luigi Cherubini's Requiem Mass in C 
Minor. 

This event, which is open to the publ'C 
with no admission charge, is scheduled f jr 
8 p.m. Monday at the Waldo Tippin Gymna- 
sium. It is dedicated to the memory of Gloria 
Yough, an associate professor of health and 
physical education, who died of a heart attack 
in August. 

The Concert Choir, which is directed by 
William McDonald and which numbers more 
than one hundred voices, has been in rehear- 
sal since the beginning of the academic year 
for this event. The forthcoming concert will 
mack the first appearance of this perform- 



ing organization since the highly successful 
Centennial Convocation Concert on May 1, 
whiih was also presented with the orchestra. 

W'.thi Eiv.ard Roncone as its conductor, the 
Synpnony Orchestra will be making its sec- 
one appjarance of this school year, having 
made its debut on November 6, 1938. Ron- 
cfue has been preparing his instrumentalists 
since that time for the Christmas Concert. 

Both McDonald and Ror.cone thought it 
fitting that this concert be dedicated to the 
memory of Miss Yough. During the years of 
1962-63, Miss Yough was an active partici- 
pant of the Symphony Orchestra an an oboist 
and as an alto with the Concert Choir. It 
is interesting to note here that the choir's 
Easter Concert of 1963 which featured Che- 
rubini's Requiem Mass in C Minor was also 
Miss Yough's last appearance as an active 
member of the Concert Choir. 



Five Clarion Debaters Finish 
High in Three Tournaments 



Five Clarion debaters finished high in the 
standings at three debate tournaments before 
and after the Thanksgiving holidays. 

At Ohio State, Clarion juniors Mary Lou 
McCauliff, and Betti Ferguson, finished in 
a tie for sixth place in a field of 80 teams 
from 16 states. 

At the end of the first five rounds, Clarion 
was one of the five remaining undefeated 
teams in the tournament after defeating 
Bowling Green, Columbia, Indiana Stale, Un- 
iversity of Wisconsin and Northwestern in 
succession. In the final three rounds Clarion 
lost their power-matched round against tlie 
University of Michigan, lost to Miami, and 
defeated the University of South Carolina, 

The 6-2 record for Betti and Mary Lou 
was Clarion's best record of the season for 
major tournament power-matched competi- 
tion, and put Clarion in a tie with University 
ol Michigan, Northwestern, King's, Michigan 
State, Wayne State, Ohio State, Marietta and 
Rutgers. 

Monday and Tuesday before Thanksgiving 
senior Pat Dobson and sophomore Marilyn 
Roslanowick narrowly missed making the el- 
imination rounds at Wake Forest, North Car- 
olina, where they were in competition with 
52 teams for 23 states and the District of 
Columbia. Clarion had a 5-3 record, which 
was good enough to put them in the top 
16 of this power- matched tournament, but 
when the tie was broken on speaker points 
the Clarion debaters were eliminated. 

Pat and Marilyn had victories over Rich- 
mond, Washington and Lee. Bowling Grc?r!, 
Auburn, and Brown, and losses to Noilh- 
western, Midwesi.em, and the returning tour- 
nament champions from University of South 
CaroUna. 



Friday and Saturday before vacation, Mary 
Lou McCauliff and Barry McCauliff tied for 
fir.st place at Duquesne University, where 
they competed with a dozen area colleges 
and McGill University of Canada. Barry and 
Mary Lou had a 4-1 record, with victories 
over Washington and Jefferson, McGill, La- 
Salle, and Fairmont, thus finishing in a first- 
place tie with University of West Virginia, 
University of Pennsylvania, and Otterbein, 
all of whom had 4 1 records. When the tie 
was broken on speaker points, Otterbein and 
West Virginia were selected to debate in 
the final round, which Otterbein won by a 
2-1 decision of the three judges. 



Myers Article Featured 

On pages 4 and 5 of today's is- 
sue, the Call reprints an article 
about communication, participation, 
and democracy on the college cam- 
pus. Equally important, perhaps, 
are the comments on the article by 
seven students and four faculty 
members of Clarion State College. 

Those who find the Myers artic- 
le and the local comments worthy 
of further comment are invited to 
write to the editor. Although the 
Call will not publish its next issue 
until January 13th, those who wish 
to write a letter to the editor are 
urged to submit their letters before 
the start of Christmas vacation, De- 
cember 20. 



Formal opening and dedication ceremon- 
ies renaming the old gymnasium as Har- 
vey Hall Student Union are scheduled (or 
7 p.m. Monday. The informal opening of tlie 
recreation lounge area took place November 
21. 

In a program conducted primarily by the 
Student Union Board, members of which 
represent a variety of campus student organi- 
zations, Board Chairman Owen Winters will 
be joined by President James Gemmell i.i 
making dedicatory remarks. A good number 
of students, including representatives of all 
student organizations, is expected to partici- 
pate. 

Renovated at an approximate cost of $60,- 
000, the old Frank A. Harvey Gymnasium 
has taken on a new look with the main 
gymnasium floor divided into a tastefully 
furnished lounge area, a billiards area con- 
taining eight new tables and a balcony area 
furnished with tables for cards and other 
table games. 

Impetus for completion of the program, 
started eight years ago when a student fund 
was formed for the purpose, came with com 
pletion of the new Waldo S Tippin Gym- 
nasium last spring. Concerted student ef- 
forts for action resulted in a plan to convert 
the old gymnasium, capping five years of 
effort by the Student Union Board founded 



in 1963 as an outgrowth of the Student Sen- 
ate. 

Also renovated was the snack bar on the 
lower level, in existence .since 19l>3 with code 
of conduct rules promulgated largely by the 
student organizations. These basic rules have 
been revised and updated for use in the 
new recreation area 

Also contained in the buiidinj,' are four 
faculty offices, the Clarion Call and Sequelle 
offices, a day students' room lor commuters, 
a .student organization workroom, and a di- 
rector's office. 

Dr. John Nanovsky. Student Union director, 
has recruited a full-timo staff to operate tlie 
facility on a seven day per week basis. lu 
addition to the director and his secretary, 
the staff includes a games-lounge area super- 
visor and several assistants. 

Dr. Nanovsky anticipates a wide range of 
uses for the Student Union including bridge, 
chess and billiards clubs with tournaments 
conducted by various groups on an intra- 
mural basis. 

Limited meeting spa<j^ would also be made 
available on a scheduled basis for student, 
alumni and related organizations as well as 
receptions and teas for distinguished visitors, 
artists, lecturers, and entertainers. 

Plans for the first phase of a new Student 
Center have been approved under the col- 
lege's S40 million expansion program and the 
architect has been selected. 



Clarion Accepts Re-Accreditation for 
Elementary and Secondary Education 



Clarion State has been fully re-accredited 
for elementary and secondary teacher edu- 
cation as a result of 'ast spring's evaluation 
by the National Council for Accreditation of 
Teacher Education, according to an an- 
nouncement by President James Gemmell. 

In a letter to Dr. Gemmell as follow-up 
of the evaluation of the college's teacher 
preparation program conducted last March 
24-27, Dr. Rolf W. Larson, national director 
of NCATE, announced the council's decision 
to grant continued accreditation for a ten- 
year period beginning Sept. 1, 1988. 

Original all-college accreditation by the 
council was granted Sept. 1, 1958. It is one 
of two major accreditations now in effect 
at Clarion State, the other being that of the 
Middle States Association of Colleges and 
Secondary Schools. 

Reviewed in connection with the basic as- 



pects of the institution were student body 
and student personnel policies, faculty resour- 
ces for teacher education, and phy.'-ical facili- 
ties. Undergraduate programs ol teacher ed- 
ucation were reviewed as to their basic a.s- 
pects, undergraduate curricula, undergrad- 
uate laboratory experietfces and with respect 
to the undergraduate school librarian pro- 
gram. 

Accreditation resulted from favorable re- 
commendations to the national council by 
a nine-member committee on Visitation and 
Appraisal chaired by Dr. Stanton Longwor- 
thy. Dean of Instruction, Glassboro State Col- 
lege, Glassboro, N, J. 

Clarion State College, accredited by the 
Middle States Association since 1948, has in- 
creased its full-time enrollment nearly thre'e 
and one-half times and its faculty .strength 
by nearly five times in the past decade.

Is Clarion 18 Years Behind 
The Times? Many Students 
And Professors Feel it Is 



Every school has problems and 
Clarion is no exception. This fact can 
easily be seen by evaluating the vari- 
ous comments from student and facul- 
ty members in reference to the Alonzo 
Myers article, which is included in this 
issue of the Call. 

In general, the students who com- 
mented on the article seemed to think 
that the student body of Clarion is 
basically apathetic, especially concern- 
ing student government. Many rea- 
sons are cited to explain the why's of 
this situation including a lack of con- 
cern by the faculty, poor communica- 
tion between students and faculty, and 
the effectiveness of Clarion as a "place 
for learning." 

One student felt that he was mis- 
sing something important from his pro- 
fessors — informal and friendly conver- 
sations and concern that would help 
to break down many of the existing 
communication barriers between the 
students and faculty. 

The faculty comments also reveal- 
ed that a communication problem does 
exist on this campus, and they also felt 
that something should be done to help 
remedy the problem. Another factor 
of piimary concern was a need for 



more student participation in the gov- 
erning and organizational activities of 
the college. 

Many interesting and stimulating 
comments were sparked by Professor 
Myers' article. All of those that conj- 
mented felt that the article is pertin- 
ent to Clarion today. One student put 
it this way: "Is it possible that this 
article was written with our college 
especially in mind?" Chances are that 
it, wasn't, but it was no doubt written 
with colleges like Clarion in mind — 
colleges that need to wake up to the 
reality of 1968. The ironical thing 
about the article is that it wasn't writ- 
ten this year or even last year, but 
rather in 1950. Is it possible th.-^t 
Clarion is at least eighteen years be- 
hind the times? Many students and 
faculty members feel that it is. 

An opportunity is being offered to 
everyone to make their own decisions 
about the Myers article and about the 
comments. This article deserves care- 
ful consideration by both students, fac- 
ulty members, and administrators. Mr, 
Myers has a great deal to say to Clar- 
ion. The question is: Are we willing 
to listen?

OPINION POLL 



Would You Approve or Would 
You Disapprove a Pass-Fail 
System at Clarion State College 



By ROSEMARY SLEBODNIK 



« -4 !■--* 



Students Should Be Praised 
On Behavior in New Lounge 



The students of Clarion State Col- 
lege can now breathe a sigh of relief. 
We now have use of the long-awaited 
student lounge. 

Plans for the lounge were an- 
nounced last spring, and anticipation 
of the oncning began to mount. Orig- 
inallv. the opening was scheduled for 
October 12, but because of numerous 
delays, the opening was postponed. The 
ooening was Thursday, November 22, 
without any fanfare or formal cere- 
mony. 

The student body should be com- 
mended upon their behavior in their 
lounge, '.'hey arc acting as mature 
ar^uILs. ind thev deserve recognition 
for this. Mr. Cecil Cox, the night ac- 



tivities supervisor, was quoted as say- 
ing that "the behavior was exception- 
ally good." 

The uniqueness of this lounge will 
eventually wear away as time passes, 
but it is hoped that the amount of en- 
thusiasm that is now being displayed 
will not die. Nor do we hope that a 
lackadaisical attitude towards the 
lounge will develop. For the lounge 
to remain in its present condition, the 
students must continue in their pres- 
ent mode of behavior. We hope that 
it will, and that the students continue 

to enjoy the facilities that are now be- 
ing offered for their enjoyment.

Many Clarion State College students are 
dissatisfied lor one reason or another, with 
the traditional letter grade system such as 
the one presently employed at this college. 

Perhaps a new type of grading system 
should be put into use; one which will put 
less emphasis on the grade the student earns, 
, ^d more emphasis on the material the stu- 
dent can assimilate. This was the question 
posed to our students this week: "Would 
you approve or disapprove of a Pass-Fail 
grading system at Clarion?" 

Dan Speal: "I think cur present system 
of grading is unfair to the student because 
it is forced upon him throughout his academic 
years beginning with grade school. It forces 
students to become more concerned with the 
letter grade than with the content of the 
course. 1 believe that if the Pass-Fail system 
would be incorporated into the academic in- 
stitutions, the students would benefit more 
from instructors and textbooks, since they 
would not be fearful of the 'almighty' grade." 

Bill Jones: "I disapprove. It doesn't give 
a student a chance if he is a borderline 
case. It doesn't really tell how much you 
know— it just shov/s you know enough to pass. 
How will they know who to choose lor grad 
school or business positions?" 

Jim Gallucci: "I'm for it— then there would 
be less emphasis on tests. That and no cut 
system would be great." 

Sandy Siviy: "I disapprove because it 
would only benefit the students who don't 
care about school and are here just to put 
in their four years of college. We are sup- 
posed to learn for learning's sake— but who 
does that? Competition is a natural element 
of human nature; therefore, competition in 
grades can not be eliminated." 

Larry Brooke: "I approve. I think q.p.a. 
is an unfair way to measure one's accom- 
plishments. The low q.p.a. may keep you 
out of grad school. So, even though you may 
be excellent in your own field, you may 
be kept from furthering your education." 

Gary Yazwa: "I don't approve. People who 
do better work should receive better grades. 
Why should someone who does C work get 
the same grade as someone who does 'A' 
work?" 

Candy James: "I approve. The idea of 
college is to learn. But students are too pre- 
occupied with getting a grade to please their 
parents. This way they could learn without 
pressure. Right now college is like a grad- 
uated high school. Something should be done 
so that it is really 'Higher Learning'." 

Buddy Martin: "I don't approve because 
grades reflect how much you have learned. 
But I think the grading system could change 
—more emphasis on class participation and 
class involvement." 

Charlie Matsko: "I'm in favor of it. First, 
this eliminates a pressure on the student 
as far as grades. Too much emphasis on 
grades stifles learning. Secondly, by having 
a Pass-Fail system, a student can devote 
more time to working at his own level rather 
than at the level of someone else in his 
class Thirti; the grading system in any ed- 
ucational system is outdated — there is no real 
way to assess a student's learning capacity. 
Seme .students making As may not be work- 
ing to capacity, while others getting C's are 
working to capacity. Such a grading system 
seems to forget individual differences," 

Ken Miller: 'By giving letter grades, stu- 
dents are motivated; while a Pass-Fail grade 
lea\es the student with an attitude of 'Oh 
well, I passed." On the other hand, it may 
reduce the anxiety to get grades, causing 



more motivation. I think it all depends on 
the type of student at the school." 

Pat Losik; "I approve of the system be- 
cause it's been working successfully at other 
schools. I think everyone would learn more 
and work harder because there wouldn't be 
such an emphasis on grades." 

Sharon Cariss: "I approve, I think you 
should be able to take some courses like 
this, but not all. This way students will take 
courses because they interest them. They 
won't be afraid to take them because they 
are difficult." 

Sandy Brody: "I'd approve. Even if you 
get a C. you sometimes work harder than 
other students. When you sign a teaching 
contract, many schools do not worry about 
grades so long as you have at least C's." 

Andy Conway: "I'd approve. This type of 
system might eliminate some of the inherent 
disadvantages of the present system in that 
it will reduce the competitive basis uoon 
which our academic world is founded. Per- 
haps tliis system would work best in ad- 
vanced courses, which serious students will 
approach with an attitude worthy of the re- 
sponsibility that a Pass-Fail system de- 
mands." 

Several schools have already begun using 
this system. The University of California at 
Santa Cruz, which will have its first grad- 
uating class this spring, has always operated 
on the Pass-Fail basis for all courses. Lock 
Haven State College has instituted a partial 
Pass-Fail system. Students are permitted to 
choose one course each semester (outside 
the requirements for his major) on a Pass- 
Fail basis. 

At a school using strictly the Pass-Fail 
system, a student's "grades" would be 
backed by a class standing or personal eval- 
uation by his professors. Administrators claim 
that the use of such a system does not affect 
a student's chances for admittance to grad- 
uate school. University of California at Santa 
Cruz students have been accepted by such 
schools as Harvard Law School, Oxford, and 
University of Chicago. 

The philosophy underlying the program is 
student exploration into new ideas. If such 
a system was instituted at Clarion, many 
students may be motivated to take courses 
they had previously felt were outside their 
scope. For some it may mean a relaxing 
of pressure on grades, making study ea.sier 
for them; while for others it may mean 
the discovery of a previously unthought of 
career. 

Two One- Act Play 
Groups to Be Presented

PLA Y REVIEW 



Irwin Shawns 'Bury the Dead^ 
Fails in Script and Execution 



By GARY DAURORA 

This is the year of the UN-Clarion. Events 
this semester have shown there has been 
a change. Events that were definitely not 
or UN-Clarion. For the first time in three 
years here: the newspaper is delving into 
controversial areas and getting results; meet- 
ings are being attended by enthralling crowds 
greater than five; fraternities and sororities 
are sponsoring and doing things for the en- 
tire campus; 'art' films are being shown 
and people are going who aren't even re- 
quired to go; things (like last month's Sitar 
concert and "Biedermann and the Firebugs") 
are being held in the Chapel which fill it 
beyond capacity. 

Last week's production of Irwin Shaw's 
"Bury the Dead" promised to continue in 
this tradition of UN-Clarion, but it failed. 
It failed not so much in intention as in exe- 
cution. 

Its promise lays in its contemporary contro- 
versial anti-war theme, something unseen on 
this campus since Fall '66's "Sergeant Mus- 
grave's Dance." Unfortunately, since it was 
written by Irwin and not George Bernard 
Shaw it lacked the wit and cunning so neces- 
sary for the theme: thus, its failure rests 
as much with the script as with the perform- 
ers. \ 

The play dealt with six soldiers who die 
in "any war" at "any time" in "any place," 
who stand in their communal grave and re- 
fuse to "^c buried. Each of these is a stocK 
character who feels personally cheated of 
something by the war: the farmer of his 
making things grow ("my place is above 
the sod, not under it"); the rogue, the lover 
of flesh, of his future loves ("I only want 
ju.st to watch them"); the poet or dreamer 
of his uncompleted starts '::so many books 
unread . . , pages unwritten"); the worker 
of a second chance with his wife ("why didn't 
I say anything before"); the youth of his 
manhood ( "I never had a woman ... I spent 



20 years practising to be a man"); the loner 
of his glory ("At last I had something to 
say ... 1 was the first one to stand"). 

Though not particularly original, these re- 
velations could have been presented in a 
less agonizing manner, but the author chose 
to tell them in long trite speeches. This trite- 
ness and absurdity spread to the rest of 
the characters: the graying West Point Gen- 
eral who speaks in cliches ("I order you 
to lie down and be buried"), the editor who 
first ignored then printed the story ("Even 
dead our boys reiuse to rest until we win"), 
and the priest who prays for victory ("With 
God en our side"). The only thing the author 
didn't do was give the reason why ("Maybe 
the ground got too tired or too lull , . . can't 
say for sure"). This play undoubtedly reads 
better than it plays; the director should have 
realized this and adjusted the script. 

Last week's performance was perfect for 
a dress rehearsal. The over-all impression 
was one of loud and slow. It was readily 
apparent that the actors were not adequate- 
ly prepared; although familiar with their 
lines, they appeared lost on stage. This plus 
the script caused the play to slow to prac- 
tically a standstill. The 'loud' came from 
the graphically realistic sights and sounds 
of battle and death. However, the time be- 
tween the 'loud' was stretched so far beyond 
reality by the 'slow' that the 'loud' served 
only to jar one awake. 

Generally, the actors were adequate for 
their roles. Outstanding were Steve Brezzo 
as the graying West Point General and Kathy 
Barron as the worker's $18.50-a-week wife. 

Although it was a sincere attempt at UN- 
Clarion, it failed. It could have been saved 
had director Cortez Puryear had more time 
and had he done some drastic cutting. Though 
it failed one can only hope more and more 
attempts will be made, and that tliis year 
will mark the beginning of the UN-Clarion 
era. 



Dean Moore In Interview 
Speaks of Clarion 's Growth 



By MARK SILVIS 

As a member 6f the journalism cla.ss, I 
recently had an opportunity to interview Dean 
James D. Moore, the Clarion State dean of 
academic affairs. 

Since I had never met him before, and 
therefore knew little about him, I was a 
little nervous. However, he immediately set 
us at ease as we entered his office by of- 
fering his hand and greeting us with a plea- 
sant smile. I was deeply impressed with his 
personality, his speaking ability, his appear- 
ance, and his informality in letting five stu- 
dents interview him. 

He began the interview by giving us a 
brief summary of his work at Clarion State 
and of the growth of the college during that 
time. He first came to Clarion in 1943 as 
an instructor in a United States Air Force 
program at the college. He left Clarion at 
the end of that academic year, but returned 
in 1946 at the request of Dr. Paul G. Chandler, 
who was then president. Dean Moore ac- 
cepted the position of dean of instruction, 
a position which has been renamed dean 
of academic affairs, and he also taught math 
until 1956. 

Administrators Should Teach 

His chief regret at giving up teaching is 
the "lack of contact with very many students, 
except tho.se with problems," He feels that 
it is "advisable for administrators to have 
a clasis of two" in order to keep in contact 
with the students. 

In discussing the growth of Clarion State 
he stated that there were 129 Clarion students 
(including only five men) and 350 Air Force 
men at this school in 1943. When he returned 
in 1946, there were 571 Clarion students and 
111 Penn State students. From 194S to 1951, 
Penn State was unable to keep all the fresh- 
men who had been accepted and therefore 
"farmed" them out to the state colleges. 
In 1953 the college hit a low point of 412 
.students. In 1963, the enrollment was 2,161, 
and this year the enrollment is 3,210. Dean 
Moore also noted the growth of the faculty 
from 36 in 1945, to 38 in 1953, to 45 in 1959, 
to 123 in 1964, to 270 this year. 

When asked about the duties which his 
job entailed. Dean Moore stated that it dealt 
directly with faculty recruiting and orienta- 
tion, with the curriculum, and with the keep- 
ing of student records. He stated that his 
job required his attendance at several con- 
ventions, but he confessed that he was "not 
a convention goer," However, he "regularly" 
attends meetings of the academic deans of 
the state colleges and "frequently" attends 
the meetings of the academic deans of all 
the colleges in the state. He noted that he 
is one of the few academic deans of all 
the colleges in the state who does not have 
a doctor's degree. 

Students Get Answers 

He stressed the point that his office and 
all the other deans' offices are always open 
to any student and that the student will al- 
ways receive an answer. He added with a 
smile. "It may not be the answer the stu- 
dent wants to hear, but it will be an answer," 

When asked to compare the students today 
with those of the past, he noted the big 




DEAN MOORE 

difference was that the students today are 
"better prepared." The high schools from 
which the present students corns have broad- 
er and more advanced curriculums than those 
of yesteryear. Dean Moore also believes that 
the competition among students is greater 
today. 

He feels that the "students arc generally 
still in colege to get a good education." 
He commends the students at Clarion because 
they "have little student unrest." 

Dean Moore recalls that one of his friends 
advised him many years a jo to "stay in 
teaching and out of administration." He is 
"not unhappy" that ho didn't follow his 
friend's advice. "Retirement looks inviting," 
but he finds his job "very rewarding," and 
he added sincerely, "I like it here." 

Review of Faculty Trio 

(Continued from page 1) 

at the recital, this, and many subtle varia- 
tions of this. 

Fault of Audience? 

The excellent piaymg iiaiicred mostly by 
inattention to the larger patterns of the com- 
position, but this may have mainly been the 
fault of the audience. The pieces chosen and 
outlined with excellent scholarship and de- 
scription were played to emphasize similar- 
ities. I was puzzled to hear such different 
personalities cast into similar garb. The in- 
terpretation seems accurate from their cen- 
tury but not from ours. The difference is 
not a fault, just an expectation. 

But then if one listened, one could hear 
that Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven were at 
times being heard by everyone by way of 
other composers nearer to us and that 
changed everything briefly, audibly. It is very 
hard to hear back in another century with 
the excitement after you have heard what 
has grown from them, because of them. 
These recitals bring so much for us to con- 
sider in continuous listenms^ to what we can 
be hearing of their playing, and so it is 
all very satisfying.

Focus on Venaiigo Campus 



Senate Appoints New Members; VC Shuttle Bus Formal Planned; 

Committees Organize Events 



There has been much activity in the Stu- 
dent Senate lately at Venango, Changes, id- 
eas, and plans are just some of the recent 
actions. 

Stephen Appointed 

Sophomore Barbara Stephen was recently 
appointed to the Venango Campus Student 
Senate by President Barbara McNutt. Barb 
will serve as the fifth .sophomore representa- 
tive and will be the chairman of the Student 
Union Committee. Barb is replacing John 
Wilizowski. 

Student Organizations Committee 

One of the committees under the Venango 
Campus Student Senate is the Student Organi- 
zations Committee. Headed by Susan Kagle, 
the committee is responsible for reporting 
to the Senate any new activities or organiza- 
tions which begin at Venango Campus. This 
committee must also maintain a budget for 
all organizations and groups, including the 
Campus Players, the Philosophes, and the 
Venango Campus Publicity Committee. Pre- 
sently under consideration of the committee 
is a campus chess tournament, which will 
probably become a reality in several weeks. 

The members of the Student Organizations 
Committee are Harry Hont, Lorraine Kapan- 
ak, Judy Smith, and Regina Wilson. With 
Mr, Crawford of the History Department and 
Mr. Jeschke of the English Department as 
advisors, the committee is hoping for a ver 
successful year. 

Cultural Committee 

The Cultural Committee, a sub-committee 
of the Student Senate, is formed to promote 
a cultural interest in the Students at Venango 
Campus. 

Headed by chairman Barbara Winkler, the 
committee consists of Jean Ackerman, Harry 
Buhay, Rosie Downs, Sandy Martin, Diana 
Ozmik and Charlie Sigel. 

The main purpose of the committee is to 



choose movies for showing every Sunday 
night, to schedule any cultural events which 
may be of interest to students and to publi- 
cize any Clarion or Oil City community pro- 
ductions, including concerts, plays, movies, 
or lectures. 

AtCiletic Committee 

Athletics is not a forgotten activity at Ven- 
ango Campus. The students at Venango sup- 
port three athletic teams, the Venango Cam- 
pus golf and basketball teams, and the foot- 
ball team at main campus. All of this is 
made possible by Venango's Athletic Com- 
mittee. 

The 1968-69 Athletic Committee is under 
the supervision of faculty-advisor, Mr. Glenn 
McElhatten. Since it is a function of the 
Venango Campus Student Senate, Thomas 
Pleiffer, a student senator, was named chair- 
man of the Athletic Committee. The commit- 
tee is made up of four members, Mike Lin- 
dow, Chris Kistler, Larry Amos, and Rich 
Yonkofski. The committee works very hard 
to keep an athletic spirit circulating through- 
out Venango Campus. 

Many people feel that the purpose of the 
Athletic Committee is merely to charter bus- 
es and purchase tickets for athletic events, 
but their duties are far wider than this. Each 
year the Student Senate allots a budget to 
the Athletic Committee. Ttiese funds must 
be strictly managed throughout the entire 
academic year. Tom Pfeiffer and Mr. McEl- 
hatten have now completed the task of setting 
up the first semester budget. The cost of 
tickets and buses do take up a major portion 
of this budget, but other needs must also 
be taken care of. Some of these are referees, 
gym facilities, equipment, uniforms, and 
meals for all team members and cheerlead- 
ers. The aim of this year's Athletic Commit- 
tee is to arouse more interest among the 
students in support of their teams. As an 
incentive, transportation will be provided, 
hopefully, for all games. 



Program Again 
Provides Scrvic*e 



The Venango Campus shuttle bus program 
was initiated last fall by the 1967-G8 Student 
Senate, This program, which has been con- 
tinued this year, provides campus stu- 
dents with transportation to and from strate- 
gic points in Oil City on Friday nights. 

This year the student's shuttle bus service 
is in effect most Friday evenings from 7 
p,m, to midpight. Hourly stops are made at 
the campus, on the south side at the Latonia 
Movie Theatre, and on the north side at the 
Holiday Inn and YMCA, This service pro- 
vides students with transportation to special 
campus activities scheduled for Friday 
nights, such as plays, concerts and dances. 

The students can also use the shuttle bus 
to take advantage of a new activity which 
is now being formulated for Venango Cam- 
pus, The local YMCA of Oil City is accept- 
ing membership from the students of Venan- 
go Campus, The fee for boys is $12 a year 
and $10 a year for girls. The full fee is not 
required upon enrollment but should be paid 
over a 90-day period. If a minimum of 40 
students from the campus are enrolled, a 
campus night may be held every Friday with 
only students using all of the facilities. 

Amcng the facilities are a swimming pool, 
basketball courts, pool and ping-pong tables, 
a weight room and indoor track. Girls may 
use the pool every Monday, Wednesday, and 
Friday nights. The YMCA membership should 
be good everywhere, but all students should 
have a membership. Those interested should 
see Mr. James Brenot at the YMCA. 

Many students have taken and will take 
full advantage of both activities, the shuttle 
bus and the YMCA. These students are very 
grateful for these activities and hope that 
there will be more activities in the future.

Students Prepare 

"rtie students of Venango Campus are com- 
pleting the plans for an exciting Christmas 
weekend starting today. Some of the planned 
activities are a semi-formal, a community 
concert, an open house and party, a choir 
recital and a ba.sketball game. 

Semi-Formal 

Plans have already been completed for the 
yuletide semi-formal to be held tomorrow 
evening at the Venango Country Club from 
nine to one o'clock. Music will be provided 
by the Quadsmen, a popular dance band. 
The Country Club will be seasonally decor- 
ated with holiday trimmings. This festivity 
has been planned by the Student Senate So- 
cial Committee, headed by Dorothy Mackey, 
a Venango sophomore. 

Community Concert 

Also on Saturday evening, Venango stu- 
dents will have the opportunity to attend 
a bass baritone concert by Mr. Raymond 
Michalski, a nationally known singer, in the 
new Franklin High School in Franklin, Penn- 
sylvania. This concert is being sponsored by 
the Venango Community Concert Association 
and is the second in a series of four. Trans- 
portation to Franklin will be provided for 
those students interested in hearing Mr. Mi- 
chalski's recital. 

Campus Choir Concerts 

The Venango campus choir, under the di- 
rection of Mr. Larry Landis of the music 
department, has scheduled three concerts for 
the Christmas .season. 

On Monday, Dec. 9, the choir performed 
at the Oil City YMCA for the Rotary Club 
of Oil City. The second of these recitals will 
be presented Monday for the Venango Asso- 
ciation for the Blind at the Belle Lettres 
Club of Oil City. The final concert is to 
be held Wednesday in the Venango Student 
Union for the pleasure of the students. 

The choir plans to sing the familiar "Carol 
of the Bells," "While by My Sheep," and 
"Cantate Domino," among others. For the 
student concert, a number of favorite carols 
will be included for audience participation. 

Open House and Party 

Following these events, residents of Mont- 
gomery Hall are planning a Qiristmas open 
house from one to five to be held Sunday and 
party from seven-thirty to eleven-tiiiny. 

The house council and social committee 
of the dormitory, under the direction of sopho- 
more Judy Wilson, have been active in plan- 
ning both events. Members of both commit- 
tees have been decorating the lobby with 
seasonal trimmings. The large windows of 
the lobby are to be painted with the color- 
ful cartoon characters of "Peanuts" depicting 
Christmas. 

The walls of the lobby wUl be decorated 
with a nativity scene of geometric figures 
constructed by Gary Hennon, a Venango 
freshman. To add more of a holiday spirit, 
a live Christmas tree will be placed in the 
lobby. 

Most of the residents of the dormitory are 
expected to decorate their doors and rooms 
with holiday greetings in hoi>es of receiving 
the prize for the most original or unusual 
decorating theme. 

Basketball Game 

Then, to complete this weekend of activi- 
ties, the V^enango Campus Vulcan basketball 
team will trave' to Warren, Pa., to meet 
Edinboro's Warren Campus team on Monday, 
Dec. 16. This will surely be a thrilling game 
to follow the December 7 match with Edin- 
boro Shenango Campus. 



The Campus Players of Venango Campus 
successfully presented three one-act plays by 
Anton Chekov, The Anniversary, The Wed- 
ding.and The Bear, on Friday, Nov. 22, 
and Saturday, Nov. 23, in the Venango Chris- 
tian High School auditorium. 

The Wedding is one of Chekov's more 
hilarious one-act plays. As the guests anxious- 
ly await the arrival of a general, a state 
of comical confusion is created in the second- 
class restaurant where the bride and groom 
are being feted. The guests include a sailor 
in the voluntary navy; a midwife with delu- 
sions about her musical ability; the bumbling 
telegraph clerk who keeps begging the mid- 
wife to sing; and a Greek shopkeeper who 
insistenUy repeats, "In Greece dere is every- 
ding." But when the general finally arrives, 
he turns out to be less than an asset and 
he only causes more confusion. 

The cast of The Wedding included Mark 
Stevenson as Yevdokim Zhigalov, the father 
of the bride; Mrs. Barbara AuseJ as Natas- 
ya, the mother of the bride; Lorraine Kapan- 
ak as Dashenka, the bride; Dave Reitz as 
Aplombov, the groom; Richard Martyna as 
General Revunov-Karaluv; Mark Hale as Ny- 
unin; Linda Bogovich as midwife Anna Zme- 
yukin; Harry Buhay, as clerk Yat; Lynn 
Shuler as Dymba; Gary Hennon as Dmitry 
Mozgovoy; Bemie Wolf as the best man; 
and Andrea Accardi and Cindy Facciolo as 
the waitresses. The Wedding was produced 
by Arnold Jeschke. 

In addition to The Wedding, the Campus 
Players presented Chekov's The Anniversary, 
an equally comical play. On tne 13th anni- 
versary of the N— Mutual Credit Bank, as 



the employees are preparing for the arrival 
of the deputation from the shareholders, the 
two women actors enter only to hinder the 
employees, and waste time. The chairman's 
wife tries, even though no one listens to 
her, to explain her journey and visit with 
her mother, while an old woman tries to 
get the money that was taken out of her 
husband's paycheck. The tension of the em- 
ployees finally builds up to a wild chase 
around the bank. 

TTie cast of The Anniversary included Sam 
Busco as Audrey Shiputchin, a fat pompous 
man who is chairman of the Board; Mary 
Louise Byers as Tatyana, his flirting wife; 
Chris Graeff as Hirin, the old bank cashier; 
Sue Boyles as Madame Mertchukin, the old 
woman; and Dave Reitz, Larry Norris, and 
Terri Aiken as the shareholders. Carol Proc- 
tor was the student director of The Anniver- 
sary. 

Finally, the players presented Chekov's TTie 
Bear, a pleasing love story. A beautiful young 
widow has been mourning for a year the 
death of her unfaithful husband. Her maid 
tries, to no avail, to convince the young lady 
that she is wasting her time and life. But 
when a handsome young man comes to collect 
the money that the widow's husband owed 
him, a love affair is kindled. ITie sharp con- 
trast of the man's persistence and the wi- 
dow's stubbornness provides an unusual sto- 
ry. Finally, the beautiful widow and the caller 
realize that they should be married. 

The three plays were presented with a 
modem black and white unit setting with 
black cubes as furniture.

Scholarship Fund is Established 
For Lee Bleustein^ Former Instructor 
And Victim of Auto Accident 



Friends, faculty members, and former stu- 
dents of Venango Campus have set up a 
memorial scholarship fund in memory of 
Lee Bleustein, a former instructor of English 
at Venango Campus. The fund will enable 
worthy students to receive financial aid for 
their college education. Recipients of the 
fund will be selected by a board made up 
of Venango Campus faculty members and 
officials of the Northwest Pennsylvania Bank 
and Trust Company, South Side Branch, of 
Oil City. Candidates will be considered on 
the basis of intellectual potential and finan- 
cial need. 

While at Venango Campus, Mr. Bleustein 
served as an English instructor, advisor to 



the Red Masquers, the campus drama group, 
and personal advisor to many students. Un- 
der his direction the students presented four 
plays: No Exit, A View From the Bridge, 
Macbird, and Bus Stop. 

On June 27, 1968, Lee Bleustein was killed 
in an automobile accident. With Mr. Bleu- 
stein's death, an individual of great potential 
was lost. Memories of Mr. Bleustein will 
remain in the minds of those who knew 
him for many years to come. 

Contributions in memory of Mr. Bleustein 
may be made to the Lee Bleustein Memor- 
ial Scholarship Fund of the Northwest Penn- 
sylvania Bank and Trust Company, South 
Side Branch, of Oil City, Pennsylvania.

This year's team is not a big one, but 
wherever they lack height, they make up 
for it in speed and hustle. A big characteris- 
tic of the team is their unselfish play. All 
of the players have played together now for 
some time and have learned to work as 
a unit. Coach Cmran has had them playing 
a stiff man-to-man defense at every practice 
session. All of the boys have been putting 
out 100 percent because they are all seeking 
berths on the startmg five. 

Members of the squad are keeping in mind 
the big game against Clarion's JV's on Feb. 
4. This year's schedule is not conaplete as

How Well Does 




"Communication^ Participation^ 
And Democracy on the Campus ^^ 



Measure Up?

Copyrlcht I95<l by PrrsJdrnt and Fcllown of Har- 
vard Collrir. Keprlntrd hy prrmUiiion •( thr au- 
Ui»r and (hr copyrlfhl holdrr. 

By ALONZO F. MYERS 

ProrrNsor-rmerituK, Nrw York I'nlvrmlty 

Communication, par- 
ticipation and democ- 
racy are inseparable. 
They are so closely re- 
lated, and each is so 
essential to the other 
two, that they must be 
treated together. I fear 
that we have been los- 
ing, rather than win- 
ning, the battle for 
democracy during the nineteen forties. This 
was probably inevitable in. view of the fact 
that during this decade we passed through 
Uie greatest war in the history of the world 
and arc still in the tragic period of react|.on, 
disillusionment and fear that followed ,ihe 
conflict. 

Each of my last two sabbatical leaves, of 
absence (1940-41 and 1948-49) wa^ spent on 
nearly 100 college and university campuses 
of the United States. My report of ob^ftrva- 
tions and conclusions based on the year spent 
in college visiting in 1940-41 included the 
statement: "I believe that American educa- 
tion, including higher education, is becoming 
ifiore democratic than it has been in the 
pa,st. 1 think this is important, as I have 
never been able to understand how an un- 
democratic educational system could 1^ of 
maximum service to a democratic society. 
Education becomes more democratic when 
it extends its benefits more nearly uniformly 
to all who have the capacity to benefit from 
it. when it develops offerings to meet the 
needs of more of our citizens, when it pro- 
vides training and experience in democratic 
living to those who are being educated, and 
when the educational establishment itself is 
conducted along democratic lines." 

, Progress Began in 1941 

It is quite true that in 1940 there were 
rtiany undemocratic practices in American 
education. At that time, however, we ap- 
peared to be making real progress toward 
reform. It was possible to point to the fact 
that in January 1941, the Association of Am- 
erican Colleges and the American As.S6clatibn 
of University Professors had been able to 
agree upon a joint declaration of prmciples 
and practices governing academic freedom 
and tenure for college faculties. In February 
1941, the American Association of Teachers 
Colleges agreed that its member institutions 
should be bound by the same set of principles. 



Many professors appear 
unapproachable. 



*t 




Why must students 
and professors- be a- 
fraid to confront one 
another? A «mall sam- 
ple Survey among the 
students of Clarion 
State College showed 
that they were afraid 
to go in and talk to 
their professors. 
Conversely, many 
professors appeared to be afraid of their 
students in one way or another. "They 
have too many hours of teaching, and 
their classes are too large. So most of 
them have given up the frequent informal, 
friendly but time-consuming contacts they 
had with their students. Perhaps it was 
necessary to do this. But the students 
were correct; they are missing something 
important." 

Professors Mount Pedestal 

Aside from this fact, many professors 
appear unapproachable. They take their 
doctorate and, along with themselves, 
place it on a "pedestal of higher educa- 
tion" and together they look down on any 
.student tr>ing to climb this pedestal. They 
arc too good to talk to a lowly student. 

Certain professors have limited their ed- 
ucation to their field of study. Consequent- 
ly, they can not carry on an everyday 
conversation. Some professors come on 
with a ' buddy- buddy, ' "fraternity Joe" 
t.vpc of personality which a student can 
recognize immediately as false. No one 
really likes to talk to a "false" person. 

Students, Faculty Must Join 

students and professors alike must join 
in together to destroy this "failure to com- 
municatc ■ block. The students must put 
aside their fears and inhibitions and learn 
to confront their professors; and the pro- 
fessors must come down off their pedes- 
tals and begin to treat the students as 
real people. 

This must be done soon or both the 
students and the professors of Clarion 
^tate College will be "missing something 
important." Neither will know where they 
are going wrong in their studies or in 
their teaching. But more important, nei- 
ther will learn how to treat people as 
people. 

TERRY CARLSON, 
Sophomore majoring in English 
(secondary education) 



Thus the administrative heads of a majority 
of all colleges in the United States had 
reached an agreement with the A.A.U.P. on 
what constituted decency in matters relating 
to academic freedom and tenure. 

In July 1941, the National Education As- 
sociation at its annual convention in Boston 
voted to establish the National Commissiuu 
for the Delense of Democracy Through Edu- 
cation and charged it specifically with respon- 
sibility for pursuing a bold program designed 
to protect education against those individuals 
or groups that dared attack .t unjustly, and 
to strengthen and improve democratic prac 
tices in education. One need only to consider 
the N.E.A. conventions held in Boston in 
1941 and 1949 to see that education has gone 
from an offensive to a defensive attitude 
during that eight-year period. 

Many Say "Yes, but . . ." 

Today we see too many people who say 
"Yes, but — " about most questions relating 
to the preservation of democratic practices 
in our society and m education. We are so 
scared of the commimist threat tnat we ap- 
pear to be almost ready to abandon democ- 
racy in order to combat communism. Our 
society, like education, is on the defensive. 
This is the great difference between 1940 
and 1949. 

During the period when the society and 
the national educational organizatior.s moved 
from the offensive to the defensive, what 
was happening on the college campus to com- 
munication and participation, the very essen- 
tials of democracy? 

In an attempt to find the answer to this 
question I spent from one day to a full week 
on each campus. Normally I met with the 
administrative officers, frequently with the 
administrative council, occasionally with 
boards of trustees and with committees of 
such boards, nearly always with the faculty 
and faculty committees, and usually with 
student councils with no officials of the col- 
lege present at the meeting. 

Communication Was Poor 

The year 1948-49 was one of exceedingly 
poor communication on college campuses. 
There is one obvious explanation for this. 
Nearly all colleges are much larger than 
they were in 1940, and most are much larger 
tlian they should be. They lack the staff, 
the plant, the equipment, and financial re- 
sources to do a good job with present inflated 
enrollments. This condition has seriously in- 
terfered with good communication. 

At one college some of the trustees told me 
that until recently they knew personally near- 
ly all faculty members. Now, they said, they 
know almost none. Faculty expansion and 
turnover have been responsible for a serious 
breach in the close and friendly relationships 
which formerly prevailed. The result, present 
on most campuses, is that the two groups, 
faculty and trustees, often have a deep sus- 
picion and distrust of each other. 

Administrator-faculty relationships have de- 
teriorated on many campuses. Again poor

concern over the lack 
of communication be-

Wl 'IHP^^ ment system at Clarion 

^K >■ flil^, Pi*ovides an effective 
^^L A^^^^ instrument for such 
■Hk »B^^» communication. 

Many of our faculty make themselves 
easily available to their advisees as well 
as to members of their classes. They give 
their students unlimited time for full dis- 
cussion. Unfortunately some faculty do not 
do this. They call their students together 
in a single group and give them an admon- 
itory lecture and call it a day. This sort 
of procedure hinders communication be 
twcen students and faculty. 

Are Students Qualified? 

Dr. Myers also calls for participation 
of students in almost every type of com- 
mittee work. Let us consider this idea. 
Where are students qualified to assist in 
college government and planning? 

Because of the fact that they are in- 
timately associated with dormitory life 
and with student opinion on other campus 
activities, students would be valuable ad- 
ditions to committees dealing with student 
government, rules and regulations. Some 
of this is done. More could be done. 

While there are probably other areas 
in which students are qualified to partici- 
pate, one precaution should be observed. 
The fact that a matter is of vital concern 
to the students is not a sufficient reason 
for involving them in decision making with 
respect to this matter any more than the 
fact that a diseased patient is vitally con- 
cerned with his recovery qualifies him 
to recommend the necessary treatment 
to his physician.

communication is largely responsible. It 
would be grossly unfair to. blame college 
presidents, or, for that matter, to blame fa- 
culties for this deterioration. PrimarUy, it 
is the situation that is to blame. Coiiege 
presidents are much too busy these days., 
Literally, they are confronted with appalling 
shortages in almost all essential categories: 
faculty, buildings, equipment, library. In 
their efforts to secure funds to enable them 
to overcome these shortages, most presidents 
find it necessary to t>e away from the cahipus 
for a major share of the time. Consaqueotly, 
all too often the president just does not know 
his faculty members. If he does not know 
them, they do not know him. In that situa- 
tion, each is likely to think the worst of 
the other. 

Wonders Why Best Men Resign 

Efforts to remedy this situation by the 
appointment of a vice-president in charge 
of faculty personnel, or an official of some 
similar title, have not always resulted hap- 
pily. This functionary, in an effort to make a 
place for himself, erects a solid barrier be- 
tween the president and the faculty. Then, 
probably fresh from military service and with 
little if any academic background, he sets 
up coUeague-rating plans and other devices 
to let him know who should be fired and 
who should be allowed to stay on another 
year. He deUvers pep talks to the faculty 
about morale and efficiency, and wonders 
why it is the best men that arc always re- 
signing. A college jannot successfully be op- 
crated like an army, a factory, or a busi- 
ness. 

Higher education has long been plagued 
by a preference on the part of many boards 
and administrative officers for permitting fa- 
culty members to know as little as possible 
about budgetary and financial matters. At 
one private liberal arts college, faculty mor- 
ale was so low at the time of our visit as 
to be almost non-existent. This faculty rea- 
soned that if money were available for a 
large increase in the number of maintenance 
personnel employed on the campus, there 
must be some money that could have been 
used for faculty salary increases^ If they 
had been permitted to know as much as 
they were entitled to know about the finan- 
cial condition of the college as yitM. as about 
the urgent need for making long-deferred re- 
pairs to the physical plant, they might have 
felt that what was being done was reasonable. 

Student Government a Farce 

At the student level the situation usually 
was worse than among the faculty. Tlie prob- 
lem raised almost universally was the apathy 
of 90 percent or more of the student body to- 
ward student government and all organized 
student activities. The net result of many dis 
cussions of this question was the conclusion 
that the great majority of all students are not 
interested because of a conviction that this 
whole complex organization for student gov- 
ernment is a farce and that it is unimportant. 

There were many examples of a lack of 
effective communication between student 
leadership and administration Rnd faculty. 
At a state teachers college in New Engls^id 
the student leaders said to me; V^c . don't 
have an opportunity to know the faculty here. 
We think we should know them. We see them 
only in class, and that is not ettough." They 
then told of one exception tO|this sta^ment. 
The English department had' been following 
the practice of having a tea each week to 
which all students taking courses in the de- 
partment were invited. They wondered why 
other departments could not' do the same 
thing. 

At this same college the pfesident .of the 
student council said: "Our president is a 
fine human sort of a fellow— if one ever 
got a chance to know him." This student 
was absolutely correct. He is just the kind 
of a man the student said he was. A few 
years ago this president knew all 500 of the 
students on that campus. There are over 1,200 
students there now. Unfortunately this admin- 
istrator no longer has time for the many 
informal meetings he used to have with the 
students. He does not even have time to 
see his faculty. 

Faculty Members Are Busy 

Faculty people are busy, too. They have 
too many hours of teaching, and their classes 
are too large. So most of them have given 
up the frequent informal, friendly, but time- 
consuming contacts they formerly had with 
their students. Perhaps it was necessary to 
do this. But the students were correct; they 
are missing something important. 

On many occasions student council mem- 
bers said that the student councU was rtierely 
a stooge for somebody — sometimes the dean 
of women, sometimes the president. They 
said all important decisions were made with- 
out consulting them. Then, they were called 
in and informed of the decision and were 
expected to sell the new policy or the new 
regulation to the student body. 

Students are in more of a hurry for the 
realization of needed reforms and improve- 
ments than are faculty people. On one oc- 
casion I informed a student council that the 
college president had said that he expected 
to have a student union building ' within five 
years. A student council member said, "So 
what! He probably will be here five years 
from now, but we won't." It is not only 
in such matters as field houses and student 
unions that students are in a hurry. They 
also want curriculum reform now. and many 
of them feel that they are not getting it. 

Frequently .stndent leaders complained re- 
garding regulations governing class atten- 
dance. They were not objecting to required 
attendance at classe.i but to tiie fact that,

"There is the danger that the uni- 
versities, in their eagerness to please 
everyone, satisfy all demands, serve all 
needs and run off in all directions, will 
forget that their first job is to produce 
educated men and women, educated in 
the broadest and deepest sense of that 
word. There is more than a little haz- 
ard that we shall — with enormous zest 
and Organizational skill — shuffle mil- 
lions of students through utterly mean- 
ingless experiences and believe that 
we have accomplished something." 

So writes John W. Gardner, form- 
er Secretary of Health, Education, and 
Welfare, in his new book. No Easy 
Victories. Do Mr. Gardner's remarks 
apply only to large universities? 

In the hope that members of the 
Clarion State student body and facul- 
ty will be moved to do some thinking 
about the best way to educate men and 
women, the Call is reprinting "Com- 
munication, Participation, and Demo- 
cracy on the Campus" by Professor 
Alonzo F. Myers and also eleven com- 
ments on the article by Clarion stu- 
dents and teachers. The article, which 
was originally published in the Har- 
vard Educational Review in 1950. was 
made available to the Call by its au- 
thor, who is professor-emeritus at New 
York University, where for many years 
he was chairman of the Department of 
Higher Education. 

Professor Myers, who spoke to the 
Clarion faculty in the fall of 1962, is 



an old friend of Clarion's president, 
Dr. James Gemmell, who passed along 
the article to the Call but left to the 
editor and advisor the decision about 
reprinting it. 

Professor Myers raises many prob- 
lems which for years have annoyecl and 
irritated students on American college 
campuses: for example, student apathy 
toward student government, toward ex- 
tracurricular activities; student feeling 
that many of their teachers are not in- 
terested in each student as an individ- 
ual; and lack of participation by stu- 
dents in the determination of college 
policies governing the curriculum. 

Another question raised by the 
article is this: Should the Clarion Ikcul- 
ty ask the student body "for a frank, 
appraisal of instruction"? Or should 
Clarion State students (like the stu- 
dents at some colleges and universi- 
ties) design, carry out, and print their 
own evaluation of all teachers? 

Professor Myers makes it clear 
toward the end of his article that time 
is the price that both the student and 
the teacher must pay for a more demo- 
cratic governance of a college. Is bet- 
ter understanding between student and 
teacher worth the time it takes, for ex- 
ample, in arranging opportunities for 
small, informal discussions outside the 
classroom? Is student participation on 
some college committees worth the 
time it takes? 

Professor Myers and probably 



many others (students or teachers) 
would say that the answer to both 
questions is yes. 

Other questions, however, deserve 
thoughtful consideration. If students 
spend the time required to do many of 
the things mentioned in the Myers ar- 
ticle, will they have time to study for 
an exam in educational psychology, 
write a term paper about the causes 
of the French revolution, and still 
"finish Paradise Lost by Wednesday"? 
The other half of this question is 
whether faculty members would have 
time to prepare adequately for their 
classes — if a more democratic system 
3f governing a college required con- 
siderably larger amounts of time in 
both committee work with students 
and in informal contacts with students. 

The Call decided to ask several 
students and faculty members to make 
frank, specific comments on the Myers 
article as it applies to Clarion State. 
Both students and teachers were asked 
to face this question, primarily: How 
well does Clarion measure up to some 
of the important ideas in Professor 
Myers' article? 

Their comments (as well as the 
entire article) are printed in this issue. 
Readers of the Call, both students and 
faculty members, are invited to express 
their opinions on the article and the 
comments by writing letters to the edi- 
tor of the Call. 

— R.K.R. 



regardless of what the published regulation 
on the subject was, many professors had tak- 
en it upon themselves to make their own reg- 
ulations. For example, if the catalog stated 
tl^at.jjily three unexcused absences would 
be permitted in one semester, some profes- 
sors would permit none. In some instances, 
a student was subject to a different regulation 
in th^ matter for each professor under whom 
he iom a course. This was highly confusing 
and demoralizing to the students. It intro- 
duced a needless hazard in their pursuit of 
an education and a degree. I frequently found 
professors stoutly defending the practice in 
the name of academic freedom, no less. 

How Should Money Be Spent? 

In many of the colleges, neither the student 
body nor its elected representatives, the stu- 
dent council, has any participation in deter- 
mining how money provided by the required 
student activity fee shall be spent. Faculty 
members and administrative officers often 
defended the practice, insisting that they 
knew best how this money should be spent. 

The favorite punishment for violation of 
rules or for academic deficiencies is expul- 
sion. This is defended with the pious state- 
ment that "we must protect the good name 
of the college." Expulsion should be a last 
resort. When it does become necessary to 
separate a student from college, there should 
be every effort to make sure that the student 
does not leave the college until he and the 
college officials concerned are satisfied that 
they know the best next step for the student 
to take. Far too many young people are 
ruined and embittered as a result of hasty 
and arbitrary actions of faculty members 
and personnel officers whose only concern 
is the reputation and high standards of the 
college. Students are human beings, and they 
deserve to be treated as human beings. 

The attitude of the faculty members at 
one college was exceedingly antagonistic to- 
ward the students. They made it perfectly 
clear that they did not trust the students. 
Leadership in the expression of this attitude 
was exercised by the student pastor, who 
said that in his college days too great free- 
dom had been allowed students, with the 
result that many of them had gone wrong. 
He wanted to make sure that this would 
not happen at this college. 

President's Contacts With Students 

In one instance the president of a state 
teachers college requested me to write to 
him after meeting with the student council, 
giving him whatever advice or suggestions 
I had to offer as a result of this meeting. 
The students had indicated they did not know 
the college president, had almost no contacts 
with him, and did not know whether he was 
for them or against them. They evidenced 
considerable ill-will and suspicion toward the 
president. I knew the president well enwigh 
to feel sure that these attitudes were not well 
founded. I wrote to him suggesting that he 
set aside one hour each week for a conference 
with the student leaders, stating that such 
a meeting would give him a good insight 
into student attitudes and problems and would 
help to dissipate suspicion and misunder- 
standing on the part of some of the students 
The president replied that he had employed 
a director of student personnel services and

"The committee system 

guarantees a means for 

all to participate •. ..,**. 

Alonzo F. Myers 
comments that the 
year 1948-49 was one of 
exceedingly poor com- 
munications on college 
campuses. He reasons 
that this was a result 
of the increase in size 
with its concomitant 
demands on facilities, 
financial resources and 
administrative procedures. 

Since that time, facilities and financial 
resources have appeared to be the easiest 
problems to solve, since a belief that ed- 
ucation gives youth a future has success- 
fully developed in the public sector. 

Deals With Human Beings 

Administrative procedures based on a 
pyramidal organizational structure arc 
more critical areas, because here one 
deals with human beings and their inter- 
pretations of college regulations. College 
officials as well as faculty members are 
carrying on a moral dialogue which is 
the antithesis of the authoritarian system 
which functions in most colleges. From 
grade school through college degrees, the 
student is reminded that he is an individual 
who is a part of a democratic process. 
Self-fulfillment has become the primary 
objective. 

Obviously colleges which are growing 
rapidly are bound to have problems. In 
trying to cope with size, colleges hkve 
adopted certain mass techniques which, 
however successful, lead to an often un- 
spoken suspicion by the individual that he 
is being treated like an inanimate object. 
Well-intentioned decisions made in secret- 
ive and confidential ways for the sake of 
expediency and from past habit often ap- 
pear as arbitrary decisions based on whim 
and caprice. 

Decision-Making Improved 

Yet there have been a number of suc- 
cessful proposals at colleges which have 
improved the decision-making apparatus 
through a broadening of the power base 
to encompass the concerned parties. This 
evolutionary development will continue to 
take place gradually as long as there is 
a willingness on all sides to spend the 
necessary time and to consider seriously 
Other opinions and experiences. This demo- 
cratization of procedural interpretation 
through the committee system is not easy 
or comforting to the impatient individual. 
Nevertheless, the committee system guar- 
antees a means for all to participate in 
the educational objectives of an institution.

"The openings are here, 
the possibilities are 
.... .... ..many ^r i"J*?v ;: 

This article presents 
an idea that Clarion 
has been facing for a 
long time, the "apathy 
of 90 percent or more 
of the student body to- 
ward student govern- 
ment and all organized 
student activities." The 
apathy here is not uni- 
versal — perhaps not 
even 90 percent, but it is a problem. 
Students seem to think, as Mr. Myers 
found, that the whole organization of stu- 
dent government is a farce, and is thus 
unimportant. 

Maybe it is, but, if so, apathy doesn't 
help. Ignoring the whole idea won't make 
it any less a farce. The more the students 
participate, the more active and power- 
ful the organizations will become. We are 
seeing right now that interested students 
can bring problems to light that have lain 
undisturbed, ignored for years. 

Encountered No Obstacles 

An important prerequisite for good stu- 
dent-faculty communications is that "no 
secretary should bar a student's access 
to deans, departmental chairmen, and pro- 
fessors." I am a senior and have person- 
ally visited most of the various deans 
for some reason or other. I encountered 
no obstacles — if anything, 1 received invi- 
tations to come back. No secretary glared 
at me distrustfully or frisked me for con- 
cealed weapons. If, for some reason, they 
could not see me then, I easily made 
an appointment for later. 

The openings are here, the possibilities 
are many, but how many students actually 
go to see deans, or professors, or depart- 
mental chairmen? Not many. If they are 
worried about grades, they complain to 
friends, not professors. If it's a question 
of not understanding a concept, it is shrug- 
ged off as unimportant — not properly 
talked out with someone who knows. 
Again, it comes to this — Be Concerned! 

Orientation Improved 

In freshman orientation and counseling, 
wc mdasure up to good old AnUoch Col- 
lege. It is mostly student motivated and 
is becoming increasingly student organ- 
ized. Due to the improvements over the 
past few years, students are here given 
an "important and responsible role." It 
is our chaHce to get the new students 
concerned with THEIR college and THEIR 
welfare by beginning on a studentto- stu- 
dent basis. 

With more students taking an active in- 
terest in ALL aspects of college Ufe, the 
faculty and administration would necessar- 
ily be forced into participation— and from 
this. Clarion can develop a new student 
reputation, as well as new buildings.

that there were faculty committees rcspoti- 
sible for various aspects of the program ot 
student activities and student welfare. Con- 
sequently, he believed it would be inappropri- 
ate for him to establish direct contact with 
students and student leaders. He feared that 
to do so would undermine the authority ol 
officials and committees that had been giv^i 
responsibility foe .student relationships. Their 
probable resentment would have its roots 
in an attitude commonly found on college 
campuses to the effect that the student is 
always wrong; therefore, his complaints 
should not be listened to. Of course, the 
'resentment would be justified if the president 
were to reverse his officials and committees 
after listening to the student side of the ques- 
tion and not listening to theirs. Reversal is 
not always what is indicated. Frequently wliat 
would result would be better guides to future 
action. If there should be reversals, they 
should be effected not by the president but 
by the official dhrectly involved. A college 
president who adopts an open door policy 
with students should make that policy And 
its reasons perfectly clear to the staff. Most 
staff members would accept it. Student mor- 
ale Will never be good without such a pohcy. 

Dean Should Be Aeeessible 

No secretary should bar a student's access 
to deans, departmental chairmen, and pro- 
fessors. The staff is there to work with stu- 
dents. Private offices guardea by over-vigi- 
lant secretaries are one of the greatest obsta- 
cles to good communicatior. on the college 
campus. 

A college is not just one college, as it 
appears superficially to be. Usually ttitte 
are three distinct colleges, where there should 
be just one. First, and most unrealistic of 
all, since it bears almost no reseinblance 
to what actuaDy exists, there is the college 
as viewed by the trustees. All too often the 
trustees are persons who were selected for 
their wealth, prestige, or political influence, 
in the hope that they will do something sub- 
stantial for the college. FrequenUy they are 
people who themselves did not attend ' the 
college and who ' would not think of send- 
ing their own children there. Yet, they deter- 
mine the policies under wUch the college 
is governed. Rarely do they have any con- 
tact with faculty or students. 

Then there is the college seen through tiie 
c.ves of the administration and faculty. Fre- 
quently this is in itself two colleges, the 
college of the administration and the college 
of the faculty. The administration-faculty col- 
lege is reoresented through the various pub- 
licity media utilized by Uie'tWJege. An h<mor 
system, for example, as seen through the 
eyes of the faculty, and as portrayed in the 
college publicity, is a very different thing 
from what '* is as actually experienced by 
the students. Student government is a won- 
derful example of democrrcy in action on 
the college campus as seen through the eyes 
of the faculty and as written up in the cat- 
alog. Students on many campuses know that 
student government is merely a democratic 
facade designed to fool the pubUc and the 
students into believing that the college is 
preparing the students for responsible leader- 
ship in a democratic society. Most students 
are not being fooled. They know totalitarian- 
ism when they see it, even when it is being 
practiced on the campus. 

Student Ideas Should Be Heard 

The third college, the one that the student 
knows, is the real college. Many teachers 
are gS^atly concerned over their own lack 
of participation in the determination of pol- 
icies that are vital to their welfare. There 
is too Uttle concern by the teachers over 
the lack of participation by students in the 
determination of policies that are of great 
importance to the students' welfare. Students 
rightly believe that the curriculum is a mat- 
ter of vital concern to them. Their ideas on 
the curriculum deserve to be heard by the 
faculty. Yet, rarely do we find student repre- 
sentation on college curriculum committees. 
Students know more about the quality and 
effectiveness of college teaching than any- 
body else. Seldom do we find college facul- 
ties asking students for a frank appraisal 
of instruction. 

Fortunately, not all colleges are like those 
that have been described. At some of the 
colleges visited there was high morale on 
the part of botli students and faculty. In 
these colleges there was good communica- 
Ubn, absence of suspicion, and th? maximum 
of participation. Bad morale on the part of 
a student council does not exist when its 
members arc able to say that the ' presi- 
dent's door is always open to them. 

A Student Council Acts 

At the North Carolina State College at Dur- 
ham, I met a student council that was not 
discouraged. It was one of the few that be- 
lieved it had been given enough responsi- 
bility. Student council members were sure 
that their problem was how, to measure t^p 
to the responsibility that had been given 
them. President Elder had requested a joint 
student-faculty committee to as-sumc full re- 
sponsibility for preparation of the student 
handbook for the following year, which in- 
cluded responsibility for regulations govern- 
ing student conduct. The students told about 
the many open meetings which had been 
held for the consideration of regulations Uiat 
were under question. Some regulations had 
been dropped or modified; some had been 
retained after their reason for existence had 
been explained. For the first time students 
were to be governed by rules of their own 
making. The rules were not too different 
from the former ones. The difference was 
in the attitude of the students toward the 



rules. Under the old system it was sporting 
to violate a .ful4. Under the new plMi it 
was no longer so. If one disagreed with a 
rule he had the means of working to have 
it rescinded or modified. Of course, not all 
students had immediately adopted (hat atti- 
tude, but it was a possibihty worth working 
fef. One student leader said: "When we got 
through working on that new handbook, I 
believe there was not a student here who 
would riot have welcomed an opportunity to 
vote for Dr. Elder for President of tlie Uni- 
ted States." 

Antioch Students Participate 

Anttoch College has a greater amount of 
student participation and a higher student 
morale than any college that I know. The 
Antioch student knows the objectives and the 
philosophy of Antioch better than most col- 
lege professors know the philosophy of the 
college at which they teach. In the fall of 
1948, lh« new president had suggested to 
the faculty and students that the beginning 
of a new admijustration might be a propitious 
Ume for all concerned to evaluate the pro- 
gram and porppses of the pollege and to 
consider the possible need for some redirec- 
tion of effort. Every student and every faculty 
member seemed seriously engaged in this 
ta|k. An Antioch student recognizes that he 
is a fully participating member of the col- 
lege community. He knows that his good 
ideas >^ill receive the same careful consider- 
ation as will those of a faculty member or 
an administrative officer. 

There is so much student participation at 
Anttoch that the work cannot be done entire- 
ly W volunteer student effort. There has 
he«ft e^taMish*^ the Antioch community with 
every student ^hd faculty member considered 
a full citizen. This community elects a com- 
munity council of six students and three fa- 
culty or administrative staff members, which 
is responsible foar conducting community af- 
fairs. The council employs a student as com- 
munity manager. For the year of his em- 
ployment the community manager gives his 
full tim«f'*td the duties of his office. 

, Students Are on Committees 

l^e adhnlnistrative coimcil of the college 
and each faculty committee has student 
membership. Students Seem to participate 
firily and actively In every aspect of the 
operation of the > college. In the counseling 
of freshmen, for, example, students have an 
important and a responsible role. 

At Antioch, students evaluate the instruc- 
tion that they receive. Unlike most colleges 
which have student evaluation of teaching, 
at Antioch the Students' sigWthfelf ratings. 
I asked one of the student leaders if it were 
not a bit hazardous to say what he thought 
about a faculty member's teaching and then 
to sign his name to it. He said: "No. The 
faculty is just as much interested in improv- 
ing the instruction as the students are." 

How much better this is than at most col- 
leges ;where there is no plan for student 
evaluation of instruction. Usually when there 



'Th^^mafority of teachers 
seern indifferent . . /* 







Many of Mr. Myers' 
comments v^ere rele- 
vant to the situation 
here at Clarion State, 
but I think most of 
them ,caa be summed 
up in a \ si|\gle state- 
ment: Clai'lon State 
College is not a stu- 
dent'oriented college; 
the system i> not gear- 
ed to nieet the needs and wants of the 
students but to comply with the designs 
ahd convenience of the faculty and ad- 
ministration. 

I agree with Mr. Myers' finding that 
"There is too little concern by the teach- 
ers over the lack of participation by stu- 
dents in the determination of policies that 
are of great importance to the student 
welfare." The majority of teachers seem 
indifferent to the needs of the student 
inside and outside the classroom. It seems 
that the emphasis is not placed on the 
amount of learning that transpires but 
on claSs attendance, not on providing an 
interesting and stimiilating classroom ses- 
sion but on covering the required amount 
Gl' material. 

Student Opinion Not Requested 

• Most teachers seem totally unconcerned 
about the students' opinion of their class- 
room performance. Few, if any, request 
student ratings or seriously consider stu- 
dent criticisms when they are offered. 
Few are concerned about the fact that 
the curriculum is inflexible and that stu- 
dents arc overburdened with an abundance 
of required Subjects which should be kept 
to a minimum. And even fewer are con- 
cerned witiii student needs outside the 
classroom. 

The result — more apathy in an already 
apathetic student body. The most com- 
petent stadeats don't bother to run for 
student government positions because they 
feel that "student government is a farce," 
and less than 10 percent of the student 
pofHilatioa votes for its representatives be- 
cause the most competent students are 
not on Uie ballot. This makes for a very 
efficient educational system and a dissat- 
isfied but cooperative student body.

is such a plan, the student is cautioned not 
to sign the rating. % | 

At Reed College in Portland, Oregon, itier| 
is an unusually large mea.sure of participa- 
tion by both students and faculty. A student 
educational policies committee, consisting of 
ten students appointed by the student coun- 
cil, functions to provide an ofticial means 
for student expressions on matters affecting 
educational policy. The student educational 
policies committee is credited by the faculty 
with several curriculum reforms and Uuaova- 
tions at Reed. ., . 

Reed Faculty Participates 

Reed College has a constitution thatntftkci, 
definite provision for democratic participa- 
tion by the faculty in administration.' Th^ 
constitution provides for a council consisting 
of the president, ex-officio. and eight mem- 
bers elected by the faculty. All proposed 
recommendations of the president t<j the 
board of trustees relating to the budget, the 
appointment of new members to the faculty, 
changes in the title, salary, or the discon* 
tinuance of the services of any member of 
the faculty must first come before the coun- 
cil for consideration. Proposals which receive 
the approval of a majority of the members 
present and voting are then presented to 
the board of trustees. When a proposal is 
rejected by the council, the question is re- 
ferred to a special committee composed of 
the president, two members selected by the 
council, and two members selected by the 
trustees. 

Democratic operation is time-consuming. 
Many people object to it on this ground alone. 
They say that it would be desirable theoret- 
ically, but that in practice it will not work 
successfully because of the time required 
to get things done. There is nothing theoreti- 
cal about this matter. Democratic operation 
works where people believe in democracy 
enough to be willing to take the time to 
make it work. I am convinced that there 
is no more important way for all persons

complaining would

Communications be- 
tween students and fa- 
culty is vital to the life 
of a college campus. 
Here, at Clarion, I feel 
that this tj-pe of com- 
munication is very 
weak. The blame is us- 
ually placed on the stu- 
dent body. We are the 
ones labeled disinter- 
ested or apathetic. But ^hat is the cause 
of this disinterest? Is the problem reaUy, 
one of disinterest at all? .. , 

Referring to the article written by frq- 
fessor Myers, a student attending Antipch 
college was asked if he thought it a little 
"hazardous" to sign his name to an Qt^l- 
uation which he had written on one of 
his courses. "No," he answered. "The''jfa- 
culty is just as much interested in ' Im- 
proving the instruction as the students 
are." Could we say the same about the 
entire faculty at Clarion? Do we eyen 
have a system of evaluating our classes 
and if we did, would our opinions really 
be taken into consideration? 

Is Student Always Wrong? 

Or how would we react to Professor 
Myers' statement that "an attitude com- 
monly found on college campuses" is that 
"the student is always wrong; therefore, 
his complaints should not be listened to"? 
Is this the "attitude commonly found" on 
Clarion campus? 

Most students fail to act or react not 
because of uninterest in college affairs 
but because of a fear in acting or re- 
acting. We hesitate to speak up even if 
it be in the form of signing a petition 
because we fear the consequences. In the 
confines of the dorm, around the dinner 
table, to and from classes, complaints are 
made left and right by the students. But 
when it comes to actually putting these 
words into action by complaining to the 
right people we immediately shut up. Of 
course, there arc a few students who do 
try to get something done, but without 
sufficient backing from the rest of us their 
efforts are wasted. 

Students Are Interested 

Whether it be grades ("Does she really 
know more than mc just because she got 
an A and I got a B?"), or courses ("Will 
this course really do us any good after 
we graduate?"), or teachers ("He doesn't 
care how boring his classes are. He must 
have used the same notes for 20 years 
now."), or any other aspect of college life, 
there is plenty of student interest. We do 
care what goes on around us. If we were 
sure that our complaining would do any 
good, if we were sure that our suggesti<Mis 
would be respected and listened to, we 
would be all too willing to vMce them. 

What is needed is a little more encour- 
agement on the part of the deans and 
the faculty. We need to know whom to 
go to with our various complaints and 
suggestions. We need an attentive ear that 
will listen to them and a reassurance that 
we will not be discriminated against be- 
cause of them.

rhgagod in the operation of an educational 
institution to spend their time Uiau finding 
but how to achieve succcssfu' operation 
through democratic processes. From the 
standpoint of our educational responsibihty 
there is a clear necessity for making the 
college a model of democracy in action. From 
the standpoint of student and faculty morale 
alone, democratic operation pays huge divi- 
dends. 

First, What Is the Problem? 

What should a college do to improve com- 
munication and "participation on the campus 
to make the college a model of democracy 
in action? On many campuses the first neces- 
sity is for all concerned to become aware 
of the problem. At some colleges I have 
found that even the students appear to be 
completely unintl^rested in achieving any mea- 
sure of participation in relation to those mat- 
ters affecting their welfare. 

Assuming an awareness of Ihe problem 
and a desire on the part of trustet^s, admin- 
istration, faculty, and student body to do 
something about it, I would recommend that 
the college hold p constitutional convention 
at which representatives of the trustees, the 
administration, the faculty, and student body 
would work together to develop a constitution 
for the college. 

The constitution should recognize the fol- 
lowing: 

1. Legal authority for the approval of ma- 
jor policy decisions and for many other mat- 
ters, rests with the board of trustees; there 
should be full participation in its formulation 
by groups which would be directly affected 
by the policy or decision. 

2. Safeguards against autocratic adminis- 
tration are necessary, and specific provisions 
for participation by interested groups before 
administrative decisions are made, must al- 
ways be included. 

3. Primary responsibility for curriculum 
and academic standards rests which the facul- 
ty, but the means whereby .students may 
participate with the faculty in these matters 
should be set up. 

4. Tlie faculty has responsibility in matters 
relating to appointment, retention, and pro- 
motion of faculty members; safeguards 
should be included to prevent actions by the 
administration or the board of trustees with- 
out faculty participation, and faculty mem- 
bers' right to appeal should be guaranteed. 

Student Role Is Paramount 

5. The res|)onsibility of the student body 
for the direction of student government, stu- 
dent activities, the student activities budget, 
ancf'iailes and regulations governing student 
conduct is paramount, and the veliicle for 
leg^mate interest in these matters on the 
part of faculty, administration, and trustees 
shoiild be provided. 

6. Committees consisting of representatives 
of the trustees, administration, faculty, and 
the student body in relation to matters of 
common concern should be established. 

7? The legitimate interest of the faculty 



in matters relating to budget and salaries 
should be recognized and provision should 
be made for faculty participation in relation 
to these matters. 

8. The interest of the faculty and the stu- 
dent body in the selection of an administra- 
tive head for the institution when a vacancy 
occurs and the selection of an administra 
tivc head for a school or division in the 
case of complex university organizations is

"Students must act . , ,by 

shouldering individual 

responsibilities . . ,** 

My reaction to Dr. 
Myers' article is "a- 
mon!" The problems 
he discusses are Clar- 
ion's problems, for it 
is clear to everyone 
that Clarion is an au- 
tocratic school whose 
democratic institutions 
are facades, and the 
solutions he proposes 
could be Clarion's, if we can eliminate the 
communication problem. 

I feel Clarion's communication problem 
is largely due to student apathy. How 
can an administration communicate with 
a student body that does not care about 
voting for class officers or meeting the 
president? When only a handful of students 
show responsibility, it is inevitable that 
power will slip into the hands of adminis- 
trators, who may or may not be compe- 
tent. 

Easier to Play Cards 

students realize that it is much easier 
to play cards in the union than it is to 
perform one's civic duties, such as voting, 
holding offices, attending meetings, and 
just reading newspapers. What they fail 
to realize is that their apathy contributes 
to the growth of that autocracy they de- 
plore. 

Democracy, let's face it, is a lot of 
work. It places responsibility on every- 
one's shoulders, and unless everyone ac- 
cepts that responsibility, it does not work. 
Accepting one's responsibility does not 
consist of shouting obscenities outside stu- 
dent senate meetings and writing slogans 
on fences. If after announcing our dis- 
content, we sit and expect the adminis- 
tration to soothe our ills, we are encourag- 
ing the growth of administrative autocra- 
cy. Students must act themselves to cure 
their discontent, and only by shouldering 
their individual responsibilities can they 
do so.

"This is where Clarion 
needs criticism" 

In his article, Mr. 
Myers stresses the im- 
portance of communi- 
cation in the "demo- 
cratic" college com 
munity. lit- cUuras that 
apathy among the stu- 
dent body is a result of 
a lack of communica- 
tion between student- 
faculty and student-ad- 
ministration. By doing this he assumes 
that students, faculty, and administratioq 
are three separate entities that should be 
working tOward some kind of equality. 
He stresses this idea further by citmg 
institutions where student participation is 
present. 

I agree with his theory, but think that 
it can very easily lead to chaos. An in- 
crease in involvement has to be accom- 
panied by an increase of awareness on 
the part of the administration and faculty 
— awareness of how students think. 

As a single student at Clarion State Col- 
lege, I feel that I have no say in how 
the college is run. I doubt whether the 
student body as a whole has more than 
a minimal effect on administrative or de- 
partmental procedures and decisions. Al- 
though it seems to be in vogue in our 
"modem" colleges to be aware of all as- 
pects of your college experience, for some 
reason I'm not' concerned. 

"When I Leave Here . . ." 

I look on Clarion as an educational in- 
stitution, JVOT as a community or an or- 
ganization. When I leave here, I hope to 
be able to handle myself in front of a 
class of high school students. There is 
no course pf study , at CHarion that can 
be mastered in four or five years. In 
my particular field, I feel tiiat I've barely 
scratched the surface. I think my time 
is best spent exploring that surface. I 
hardly feel qualified to teach as an edu- 
cation major; 1 am looking forward to 
my "first'', educajtiqn course, student teach- 
ing, which I hope will be an effective 
preparation for my career. 

What I know about teaching that I didn't 
when I signed up as an education major 
back in '65 could be written on a three 
by five card. This is where Clarion needs 
criticism. Before the student senate and 
ediior4aIusltsi,tbejr„tL^je..in^py.) bfcome con- 
cerned with "student involvement" maybe 
they should explore and re-evaluate, con- 
tinually, the effectiveness of Clarion as 
a place for learning.

Mrs. Bays Asks, and Suggests Answers 



**From these discussions a 
beginning could be 
made . 



M 




All over the world en- 
raged students are riot- 
ing. In the United 
States they have lock- 
ed up admimstrators 
and in Europe they 
have waved the flag of 
Mao - Tse - Tung. We 
have seen it all on tele- 
vision, but what does 
it mean? Why are the 
students so angry? No one seems to know 
really. One hears much pious talk about 
"law and order," but little attempt or 
concern, for the causes of the unrest. 
"Th^y are spoiled kids who've had too 
much," says the older generation who 
grew up under the depression. 

I believe we have to look elsewhere 
for the causes. We have educated larger 
numbers of people than ever before and 
when we educate (or even half-educate) 
people, they are less wiUhig to accept 
the social diseases of poverty, racial dis- 
crimination and war than previous gener- 
ations. Is it really so difficult to under- 
stand that young men are the ones revolt- 
mg against Vietnam? After all they are 
the ones bcmg forced to die there and 
not the shocked preservers of "law and 
order." 

The Right to Refuse 

But the Establishment does not think 
that the young have a right to refuse 
to go to war. "This is unpatriotic," it 
says. But if the young do not have the 
right to decide for themselves on a Ufe 
and death matter which concerns them 
personally, then they have become mere 
chattel, the property of the government 
and the draft a disguised form of slavery. 
The more intelligent and articulate ones 



understand this and resent it; the less 
intelligent tend to accept the cliches of 
tne Establishment. 

The article written by Alonzo Myers in 
1950 asking for more democracy on cam- 
pus seems to have foreseen some of this 
unrest. However, if Clarion State College 
were to carry out the numerous proposals 
mentioned at the end of the article as 
desirable, both faculty and students would 
have to abandon their courses for about 
a year and devote themselves to a monu- 
mental task of campus re-organization. 
Then when wc were all finally organized, 
would we really have that democratic Uto- 
pia on campus? This requlreu more faith 
in organization than I have. I am inclined 
to think that such a reshuffling would 
lead rather to power struggles among us 
and a dissipation of energy which would 
best be spent in what should be our chief 
concern: the liberal education of our stu- 
dents. 

Antioch Not a Model 

Mr. Myers holds up two institutions as 
models of demociacy for us: North Caro- 
lina State Ck>llege and Antioch. I know 
little about the former, but I taught four 
years at the latter and I do not consider 
it a model of human relations. Faculty- 
admini-stration relations are much better 
at Clarion and although students here do 
not have enough voice in decision-making, 
students there have too much. There is 
no honor system here, but I would say 
that here is just as much honor, if I 
am to judge by how faithfully students 
here return books they have borrowed 
from me. 

All this raises the question which most 
of us must have asked ourselves recentiy 
on seeing the rioting on television: how 
much power should students have? Are 
there no limits to it? If so. what should 
these limits be? The article by Mr. Myers 



seems to. consider that students should 
have equal power with the faculty and 
administration in making academic de- 
cisions, curricalum changes, etc. I do not 
agree with this for the very common sense 
reason tliat (except before the law) stu- 
dents and faculty are not in fact equal. 
They are not equal in age, experience, 
or knowledge. This is nothing against them 
since they are potential equals and our 
job is to help Uiem arrive, at that full 
potential. 

Student Opinions Requested 

I cannot imagine freshmen or even sen- 
iors .selecting the textbooks for my cour- 
ses, but I have many times asked their 
opinions abt)ut a certain text and if they 
give a number of negative answers, I have 
abandoned the book. Faculty should .solicit 
the opinions of students regarding the 
courses offered and the content. Valuable 
suggestions come from them, but the over- 
all refipon.sibility should remain in the 
hands of the faculty member. A serious 
petition from the students to the faculty 
or administration should be given careful 
consideratiqn. . Members from each of 
these groups should get together and dis- 
cuss whatever the students consider grie- 
vances. 

What we need at Clarion at the moment 
is more dialogue outside of class between 
faculty, students and administrators. In 
this respect I agree with Mr. Myers that 
the heart of most campus problems lies 
in a breakdown of communication among 
the various groups. From these discussions 
a beginmng could be made toward more 
democracy at Cljtrion. But 1 do not believe 
that power struggles lead to understanding 
and there is altogether too much interest 
on many campuses in getting power. It 
has nothing to do with the purpose of our 
being here: a liberal education.

On ilie Myers Artirlo 




'^Philosophically^ who is 
our president?** 

1 feel partly more 
capable of commenUng 
on student-faculty and 
student - administra- 
tion relationship. It is 
not that I consider my- 
self well-versed on the 
democratic or c o m - 
niunicalive relationship 
existing here, rather, I 
can identify more read- 
ily with the student. I trust that faculty 
assigned to these comments wiU undertake 
the task of relating to and commenting 
on faculty administrative or faculty-pre- 
sident relationship existing on our campus, 
provided of course, that some sort of rela- 
tionship does exist. 

Is it possible that this article by Mr. 
Myers was written with ouc ooyege*^-. 
pecially in mind? Practically evilry' stife- 
nunit concerning student versus adminis- 
tration and faculty can be paralleled witb 
Clarion State College. Fot jnatimce, stu^ 
dent ideals on a cut system, tfie never- 
ending suspicion that student government, 
is a farce, expulsion from school being' 
the favorite punishment for .violation of 
rules, and that innermost concern by a 
majority of students: "Who is our Pre- 
sident?" 

Who Is Dr. Gemmell^ 

Philo.sophically, who is our president? 
Of course, it's Dr. Gemmell. The^ri again 
ask me, Who is Dr. Gemmell? Of course, 
he's our president! is it our own ignor- 
ance or lack of curiosity that limits our 
knowledge of our president? 

Is he for or against stwdeut ideals for 
reform at Clarion? Would peaceful protest 
for change of a college poiicy be under- 
stood or crushed? Did he enjoy the* hippy 
wedding? In all seriousness, a direct quote 
from Mr. M.yers' article by a member 
of student government "Our president is 
a fine human sort of fellow — if one ever 
got a chance to know him." Also, "... 
they did not know the college president 
and did not know whether he was for 
or against them." 

About expulsion. "Far too mai.y young 
people are ruined and embittered as a 
result of hasty and arbitrary actions of 
faculty members and D»eps0ttnel officers 
whose only concern is the reputation and 
high stanaards of the college. Students 
are human beings. and^OiS^JSlli^^^£. to 
be treated as human beings." 

Most of these quotes speak for them- 
selves: 

Council Was a Stooge 

About student government: "... stu- 
dent council members said the council 
was merely a stooge for somebody, some- 
times the dean of men, sometimes the 
president.'' Can anybody draw a parallel 
to Clarion? 

"We are so scared of the communist 
threat that we appear to be almost ready 
to abandon democracy in order to combat 
communism." 

Think this statement out carefully, using 
your imagination; I think you may find 
it to be true on a somewhat smaller scale 
right here at our college! 

We are so afraid to be acted upon by 
disciplinarians that we abandon our own 
desired principles of change and reform 
or become passive in order to avoid ad- 
ministrative or disciplinary tactics. 

You must read this article by Mp. My- 
ers. As I said in the beginning, it surely 
must have been written for our college.

'*My personal experience 

. . . they rise to the 

challenge . . ." 

It is always hard to 
admit that you are 
wrong. For some time 
I have felt that Clarion 
had not entered the 
twentieth century (re 
.student and faculty use 
of automobiles or even 
bicycles), but after 
reading Mr. Myers' ar- 
ticle, I find that in relation to other insti- 
tutions of higher learning, Clarion is only 
20 years behind the times. 

In Myers' article the author attributes 
the generally poor communication on col- 
lege campuses in 1948-49 to the tremendous 
growth rate of all colleges at that time. 
What is Clarion's excuse? Last year the 
college community witnessed the peremp- 
tory dismissal of Dr. M. Alice Davis for 
reasons that were never explained to eith- 
ier the faculty or students. In the absence 
of communication it appears that the col- 
lege knuckled under to threats from the 
outside community. 

Should Evolution Be Deleted? 

What will be the position of the college 
if, as has been the case, we are requested 
to delete the subject of evolution from 
^ur biology curriculum? Are these matters 
which can not be entrusted to the inex- 
perienced hands of students and faculty, 
but must be reserved for decision by the 
wise and experienced deans and executive 
assistants? Communication, I believe, 
would solve many of our problems by 
giving to those affected by decisions the 
facts upon which administrative decisions 
are made. 

Myers states: "The attitude of the fa- 
culty members at one college was ex- 
ceedingly antagonistic toward the stu- 
dents. They made it perfectly clear that 
Jhey did not trust the students." Was he 
talking about Clarion? I find this attitude 
to be almost universal among the faculty 
and administration here. 

What happens during the summer be- 
tween the time the irresponsible Clarion 
student graduates and a pillar of trust 
and respect assumes the obligations of 
teaching our children in the public schools. 
Does a Clarion diploma immunize our gra- 
J, duatgs_3gainst the great social diseases 
of irresponsibility and immaturity? My 
personal experience here has been that, 
if students are given trust and responsibil- 
ity, they rise to the challenge.

Faculty Senate Tables Proposals 
On Political Science, Math Program 



The Faculty Senate meetings of December 
2 land 9 were primarily concerned with two 
controversial issues. 

The fir.st was the recommendation by the 
Department of Political Science to add a new 
course titled Selected Topics. Each semester 
the course was offered, it would be changed 
to a different specific topic. The flexibility 
of this course would allow the present faculty 
to teach a course in their special field, and 
as new members are added to the faculty, 
they too could teach in their own special 
fiqld without the trouble of adding a new 
course. A member of the faculty asked Dean 
Moore if this would cause too much con- 
fusion in registering, and he said "No, if a

Many other questions arose, such as tlie 
amount of funds needed, if the course was 
really necessary, if the needed books were 
already in the library, and if each particular 
topic would be approval by the Senate. Not 
all of these questions were answered satis- 
factorily, and it was decided that the propo- 
sal should be resubmitted next semester. 

The other controversial issue was the pro- 
posal to pass the Master of Science program 
in mathematics. At least four departments 
opposed the program and raised questions: 
"Shouldn't there be electives in other fields 
besides mathematics offered in the pro- 
gram?" "Is the use of graduate students to 
teach mathematics courses desirable?" "How 
does the proposed program prepare the stu- 
dents in mathematics for business and indus- 
try?" 

Because the members of the Senate could 
not agree on the proposal, it was tabled 
until the next meeting. 

COLLEGE SLATED TO EXPAND 
TO NORTHEAST ACROSS MAIN 

Clarion State College will expand northeast- 
ward across Main Street, according to plans 
approved at the November 21st meeting of the 
college board of trustees. 

The new expansion plan wiU enlarge the 
present campus by an estimated 250 to 350 
acres, which will help to accommodate the 
projected student enrollment of 6,200 in ten 
years. New construction amounting to 16 mil- 
lion dollars is now underway or scheduled on 
the existing campus, and an additional eight 
million dollars of construction has been au- 
thorized for the future.

important, and provision for their participa- 
tion in such selection and nomination must 
be present. 

9. Official representatives of the faculty 
and of the student body should sit on the 
board of trustees, and where legal restrictions 
prevent such membership, these refM-esenta- 
tives should have full right to attend meet- 
ings and to participate in discussion. 

10. A constitutional convention should be 
held at ten-year intervals for the purpose 
of amending the existing constitution or draft- 
ing a new one. 



Last year two compositions were premier- 
ed. They were the "Canzonetta from Violin 
Concerto, Opus 35" by P. I. Tschaikovsky 
arranged for a clarinet and alto sax solo with 
a symphonic band accompaniment and the 
"Song of the City" for an alto sax solo and 
band written by Mr. Mitchell. These arrange- 
ments were played by the Vandercook Col- 
lege of Music Band. This band is made up of 
over 70 members. Mr. Mitchell was also 
a guest conductor last year for the conven- 
tion. 

It is estimated that from five to eight 
thousand public school and college instructors 
will attend the convention. Teachers will 
come from aU over the United States and 
Canada. This is the 22nd annual convention. 

"Panorama for Band" will be performed 
also at the Eastern Division Convention of 
Music Educators National Conference. The 
North Hills High School Band from Pitts- 
burgh will play the composition. This per- 
formance wiU be held on February 1, 1969 
in Washington, D. C. It will also be played 
at the Ohio State Music Convention in Colum- 
bus, Ohio, on February 8, 1969. 

Dr. Stanley F. Michalski, professor of music 
at Clarion, will also accompany Mr. Mitchell. 

Slides Shown 
Of Archaeology 
Summer School 

Monday night the students of CSC who 
were unable to attend the Fifth Annual Arch- 
aeology Field School last summer were given 
an opportunity to view slides taken during 
the session. 

Clarion State College established this an- 
nual field school to provide training in mod- 
ern methods and theories of field archaeology 
by combining classroom and laboratory work 
with actual field excavation experience dur- 
ing a six weeks period. The program is gear- 
ed to undergraduate students and is one of 
the less than 20 programs in the United States 
that cater exclusively to undergraduates. 

Each year the first three weeks of the 
school are spent on the Clarion campus and 
are devoted to theory and laboratory tech- 
niques. Last year the second three weeks, 
or the excavation phase, were spent at the 
Zeigler site (36-Wa-80) near Tidioute, Pa. This 
site represents a large prehistoric settlement 
adjacent to the Allegheny River. 

Twenty participants representing 13 acade- 
mic institutions (including the University of 
Pittsburgh, University of Chicago, University 
of New Mexico) were involved in last sum- 
mer's program. The participants excavated 
portions of the Zeigler site which had been 
begun during the 1967 Field School session, 
and completed excavations of one small hunt- 
teg station on th: Allegheny Plateau, known 
•s Raven Rock V. 

A somewhat larger program is planned 
for next summer. The Annual Field School 
is an integral part of Clarion's academic 
offering. Its growth since 1964, when the first 
Field School was held for nine students indi- 
cates not only a need for programs in which 
Undergraduates can actively participate in 
primary research while learning, but the 
growth also shows that Clarion's program is 
becoming known in other parts of the coun- 
try. 




CORTEZ PliRYEAR is congiatulated by Dr. John Mellon, dean of liberal 
arts, for placing first in the President's Cup Orations hold Wednesday in 
Peirce Auditorium. Cortez was awarded the cup, known historically as 
"the Jefferson Cup." for his speech, "They Say." Watching are Connie 
Carter, second place winner with "The Promised Land," and Betti Fer- 
guson. 



ON THE FVTVRE OF VENANGO CAMPUS 

Effect of Heald, Hobson Report 
To Determine Continuation 



By KATIIY RODGERS 

The Heald, Hobson report on off-campus 
centers of Pennsylvania is of great conctni 
to per.sons interested in the future of Venango 
Campus. Whether Vthango Campus will con- 
tinue to function 'as a branch of Clarion State 
College is a major question eoncorning many 
people of Venango County. The answer to 
the question depends upon the cifecl of the 
Heald, Hobson rc{M)rt. 

In June of 1967 the Penn.sylvania State 
Board of Education contracted Heald, Hobson 
and Associates, Incorporated, of New York 
City, to conduct a study of off-campus cen- 
ters of the statc-rclatod and state owned col- 
leges and universities of Pennsylvania. The 
intention of the State Board of Education 
in making such an agreement was to collect 
data concerning such institutions in order 
to arrive at a deci.sion determining which 
type of institution would provide the most 
economical expenditure of state funds and 
the best educational opportunities for the citi- 
zens of the state. 

After a year's study, Heald, Hobson and 
Associates compiled a report of their findings 
entitled "Off-Campus Centers in Pennsylvan- 
ia." The report makes definite recommenda- 
tions concerning the institutions studied. 
Some' off-campus centers would remain as 
they are presently; others would be con- 
verted into four year colleges; still others 
would be phased out entirely, according to 
the report. 

Possible Community College 

In response to the Heald. llohson report 
the status of Venango Campus of Clarion 
State would be changed considerably. Venan- 
go in combination with the Titusville campus 
of the University of Pittsburgh and the War- 
ren campus of Edinboro State College would 
be converted into a community college. To 
justify this conversion the Heald, Hobson re- 
port makes several comments and recom- 
mendations. 

The report contends that cultural life of 
the area would be quickened by the pre- 
sence of a comprehensive community college. 
In response to tliis statement, faculty mem- 
bers and prominent figures of the town of 
Oil City have made the statement, "The ex- 
tent to which the existing branch campus 
has contributed to the cultural life of the 
area has added considerably to the com- 
munity." In the past, students of Venango 
Campus as members of the Venango Campus 
Choir have performed concerts for local or- 
ganizations. Venango Campus students and 
faculty members have participated in the 
Venango County Choral Society. The campus 
Philosophes, a discussion group, has present- 
ed many worthwhile discussions which are 
opened to the public at all times. The campus 
drama group puts on a theatrical presentation 
each semester. Venango campus facilities are 
used each week for non-credit adult educa- 
tion programs. These classes are open to 
any interested adult citizens of Oil City. 

The report next maintains that adult contin- 
uing education courses for credit would be 
available. This statement overlooks a few 
points. Over the past few years .some of 
the faculty members of Venango Campus 
have offered their services free for credit 
evening classes. The offer was turned down 
by Clarion State. Mrs. Sue Reinhardt, a Ven- 
ango faculty member and faculty advLsor 
to part-time students at Venango, stated, "Ol- 
der men and women are able to complete 
degrees or gain teacher certification through 
courses at Venango Campus.' 

Vo-Tech School Begun 

The refxjrt further contends that many 
of Venango County's youths and many more 
local industries' employee needs would be 
served by a community college. The main 
fault with this statement comes from the 
survey groups' complete overlooking of the 
new Oil City Vocational-Technical School. The 
new school is scheduled to open in September 
of the coming year and will serve the area 
of Venango and West Forest counties and 
the Titusville School District. The new school 
will be offering courses in: Appliance Repair, 
Auto Mechanic Parts Room, Autobody. Car- 
pentry. Building Maintenance, Machine Shop. 
Plumbing, Heating, Air Conditioning, Metal 
Fibercation, Welding, Electronics, Industrial 
Electricity. Drafting, Practical Nursing. Cos- 
metology, Food Service, Distributive Educa- 



tion and Warehouse. Typical community col- 
lege programs include cour.ses in: data pro- 
cessing, auto mechanics, printing, medical 
secretarial, legal secretarial, merchandising, 
rcstaiuant practice, cosmetology, drafting, 
and other skills for which tliere is employ- 
ment. If Venango Campus were replaced by 
a community college and offered a typical 
technical program, it would be competin.; 
with tlie new vocational-technical school. 

When local industry was confronted with 
the community college proposal, their reac- 
tions were not totally favorable. A commun- 
ity college program would enable students 
to obtain associate degrees in many areas. 
Personnel managers of ei^ht of the nine in- 
dustries of Oil City have stated that what 
indu.stries primarily need are men and wo- 
men with a B.S. degree. Heads of the Oil 
Well Division of the United States Steel Cor- 
poration, Strulhers Well's Corporation, Joy 
Manufacturing Company and Chicago Pne- 
umatic Tool Company have stated that they 
could use some personnel with associate de- 
grees in mechanical drafting and electronic 
technology; but other than those positions 
all of their employment needs can be met 
by persons with vocational-technical training 
or Bachelor of Science degrees. 

The Heald, Hob.son report commented that 
Vennngo's curriculum's placing too heavy 
an emphasis on teacher education does not 
serve the full interest of the community. 
The statement overlooked the fact that the 
curriculum at Venango Campus also in- 
cludes: liberal arts, humanities, natural sci- 
ences, social science, business admiiii.stra- 
tion, and a projected nursing education pro- 
gram. 

The report also makes statements concern- 
in t the percentage of Venango County stu- 
dents attending colleges. These statements 
are not totally true. The report states that 
only about 30 percent of Venango County 
High school graduates attend college. This 
is true. From recent studies done by the 
Venango Campus faculty and Venango Cam- 
pus advisory group committee, though, it has 
been found that 49 percent of the full and 
part-time student body are commuting stu- 
dents. The committee defines a commuting 
student as one who resides in Venango Coun- 
ty and adjacent counties and drives daily 
to class at Venango Campus. This figure 
is considerably different from the Heald, Hob- 
son figure of 19 percent. The third part of 
the comment suggests lowering the selectivity 
in admission policy. A practice such as this 
would lower the standard of Venango Cam- 
pus and it students. At present, Venango 
Campus has an alternate program. Mrs. Sue 
Reinhardt has commented on this by say- 
ing, "As advisor of part-time students at 
Venango Campus and as a former counselor 
at Oil City High School, I know that stu- 
dents who carmot meet full-time requirements 
are admitted as part-time students until they 
are able to handle a full-time load. Since 
they are taking courses at a branch campus 
of an accredited college, they can continue 
their work at the main campus. By lowering 
its standards, Venango Campus would quite 
possibly lose its accreditation and there- 
fore defeat its whole purpo.se. 

Local Opposition Commented On 

The report's final major comment directed 
toward Venango concerned local opposition. 
The report states that local opposition to 
a community college is based on cost and 
the erroneous belief that a community college 
is necessarily of poor quality. Academically 
the major complaint of a community college 
is transferring. The faculty-advisory commit- 
tee states, "Students entering transfer pro- 
grams in community colleges must either 
meet certain standards of admission or rem- 
edy their differences through remedial 
courses. Many have great difficulty in trans- 
ferring from one school to another and often 
lose credits and available time in the pro- 
cess. A comment made by Leonard Abate 
and Alistair Crawford, two of Venango's so- 
cial science instructors, concerning the aca 
demic deprivation of such a conversion as 
ad\ocated by the report was: "The conver- 
sion to a community college would take a 
school already successfully operated and re- 
move its accreditation, inter-library facilities 
and faculty." 



One trouble with the laws of the land is 
that most people think they were made for 
otlier people.

A PEEK AT GREEKS 



DELTA ZETA 

Pink roses and congratulations to our sis- 
ter, Marsha Kramerick, who was recently 
pinned to Joe Filia of Alpha Gamma Phi. 
pZs would like to thank all the townspeo- 
ple and students who helped make our Slave 
Day a success. 

Listen for the ringing voices of the sisters 
of Delta Zeta on Wednesday night. We shall 
be on campus Christmas caroling. Following 
our serenading, we will be entertained at 
the Big Sis-Little Sis party given by the 
pledges. Following three days of having a 
secret rose-buddy, during which each pledge 
receives a little gilt compliments of a sister 
unknown to the pledge, the pledge period 
will be ended with a party for the sisters. 
It is fun for the pledges and we are all 
looking forward to a good time. 

Delta Zetas will be timers at the swim 
meet on Saturday. Look for us in pink and 
green and holding stop watches! 

ALPHA SIGMA TAU 

The AT Pledges can breathe a sigh of 
relief with only one more week of pledging. 
Tonight, informal initiation will be held at 
Cook Forest— the theme being "a day in 
the life of an AST Pirate." On Monday, Jan. 
6, our seven pledges will be formally initiated 
as sisters. We'd like to thank all the frater- 
nities for their cooperation in supporting the 
"AST Fraternity of the Week." 

Yellow roses and AT love go to Sister 
Judy Thompson on her recent pinning to 
Ron Allaman. 

In harmony with Uic spirit of Riving at 
Christmas time, the ATs are each a "Se- 
cret Santa" to another sister. For one week 
before our party, the Santas do little favors 
for that particular sister. Their identities wiU 
bo revealed with a small gift at the party. 
Before the Christmas Party on Wednesday, 
Dec. 18, the Taus will help decorate the 
Christmas Tree at the Clarion Convalescent 
Home and will sing Christmas Carols to the 
residents. We hope to make their holiday 
happier. 

On Wednesday, we had our cultural pro- 



gram, at which the guest .speakers were 
members of the Clarion clergy. Our feelings 
concerning the season and spirit of Christmas 
was the topic of discussion. 

ALPHA GAMMA PHI ^ 

Alpha Gamma Phi welcomes their 22 new 
members. 

Congratulations to Joe Chalmers, who was 
again elected captain of this year's basket- 
ball team. Other starters, who are also bro-

ALPHA SIGMA ALPHA 

The Alpha Sig pledges have finished their 
pledge period and have decided it was the 
sisters' turn for some fun. For "Turn About" 
day the sisters of Alpha Sigma Alpha were 
dressed as Santa Claus and carrying a bag 
of candy and gum. Nothing is too much for 
the pledges who seemed to have caught the 
Christmas spirit. 

However, the sisters are looking forward 
to Friday night for the informal initiation 
of the pledges; a night the pledges will not 
forget ! 

The sisters were pleased to have our Na- 
tional Traveling Secretary, Judy Holman here 
for five days. Her visit was enjoyed by all 
the sisters since she gave us some helpful 
suggestions. 

The Alpha Sigs would Uke to thank their 
advisers, Mrs. Bonner and Mrs. Kodrich, for 
planning a Christmas party next Thursday. 
The pledges will also be initiated that night. 

SIGMA SIGMA SIGMA 

Congratulations to Cheryl Bowser on her

Cross Country 
Closes Season 
With 0-3 Record 

Cross country at Clarion State failed to 
make a good showing in its first season as 
a varsity sport, despite a bright pre-season 
outlook, but sophomore Jim Bell stood out 
as a real comer in the harrier ranks. 

Jim, who led the Clarion runners, placed 
second against Edinboro, fourth against In- 
diana, and third against California. The fl^et- 
footed sophomore placed 24th in the NAIA 
tourney and 34th in the State College Con- 
ftrence. 

In State College Conference competition, 
the team had 105 place points to the competi- 
tion's 68, giving them an 0-3 seasonal record. 

Running for the Clarion squad were Jim 
Bell, sophomore; Rick Barkley, junior; Phil 
Floyd, senior; Mike Flynn, sophomore; Larry 
Holly, senior; Tom Tessena, senior; and Scott 
Tieman, sophomore. 



A LETTER TO SANTA 

Christmastime Is 
A Joyous Season 

FEATURE ON CHRISTMAS 

Dear Santa, 

At this time of the year, I know you are 
busy filling many requests, but I hope you'll 
give my ideas some thought. 

Christmas is a joyous season, a happy 
season, a friendly season; it is a holiday 
to anticipate. It is a time when friends and 
relatives gather around the fireplace and 
reminisce about Christmases past. Storekeep- 
ers smile, streets are decorated in bright, 
cheery Christmas colors, and the sounds of 
"Merry Christmas" and "have a happy holi- 
day" can be heard everywhere. It is a univer- 
sal feeUng of joy and happiness, but is it 
really happy? 

Christmas is family gatherings, yet how 
many homes are without fathers, brothers, 
and sons, because of a war in a distant place. 
Will THEY have a merry Christmas? 

Christmas is a religious time for Christians; 
it is, as they believe, the anniversary of 
a time long ago when a baby boy was born 
to redeem the world. Yet Christmas is also 
exploited commercially. Buy this, buy that— 
thousands of people crowd into stores to buy 
gifts for everyone. Whatever happened to 
the old-fashioned times when people placed 
sentiment above monetary value? 

But are gifts the cnly important part of 
Christmas? I like gifts, both giving and re- 
ceiving them: yet Christmas means much 
more. Without world-wide peace and equality 
for all, tlie universal Christmas .spirit can 
only be superficial. 

So Santa, I'd Uke peace on earth and uni- 
versal brotherhood, not only at Christmas- 
time but all year around. With faith in our 
leaders and a practicing Chri.straas friend- 
liness throughout the year, we can celebrate 
and truly have an extra-merry Chri-stmas 

sooa. 

ThoughtfuUy, SUE FAIR 



FUTURE FLICKS! 



Continuing until next Tuesday at the Gar-

Bubb's Matmen Open Season with Outstanding Victory 



Clarion's grapplers opened their 1968-69 sea- 
son in fine fashion last Saturday, giving up 
only two points to their tliree opponents in 
a quadrangular home tournament hosting 
Brockport State (N.Y.), Frostburg State 
(Md.) and Howard University, Washington, 
D.C. 

Coach Bob Bubb's matmen, amassing an 
amazing total of 124 talUes to two for the 
foes, would have shut out all opposition ex- 
cept for a tie registered in the unclassified 
category with Brockport. It was their first 
event in their new quarters at Waldo S. Tip- 
pin Gymnasium. 

An outstanding performer for the Golden 
Eagles was Captain Doug Niebel, who de- 
cisioned New York State champion Tom Bun- 
tich, 2-1, in the 160-pound class against Brock- 
port. Niebel score;d two faUs out of three 
matches. 

Reagan Beers, \yho scored the opposition's 
only two points in the entire tourney against 
Clarion's Gary Holsopplc in the unlimited 
class with Brockport, is also a New York 
£itate Champion. 



CSC Hun Judo Club 
Attends West Penn Meet 



Shortly before Thanksgiving the CSC Hun 
Judo Club attended an inter-coUegiate Wes- 
tern Pennsylvania meet. The other clubs 
which participated were Lock Haven State 
College — Teams I and II; Montclair; SUppery 
Rock State College — Teams I and II; George- 
town University; and Juniata CoUege. 

The CSC Hun Judo Club was represented 
by Joseph Kenny — purple belt, 120-pound, who 
won one lost two and tied one out of four 
games; Tom Komes — white belt, 195-pound, 
who with precision techniques won all four 
of his matches; Steve Jobb— purple belt, 116-

Cage Team Wins 3 Games, 
Shows Much Improvement 



Clarion State and Walsh College went into 
overtime Monday, Dec. 4, in a hard fought 
floor fray that saw the Golden Eagles come 
out on top, 85-79. 

Neither team scored until more than two 
minutes of the initial contest in Clarion's 
new Waldo S. Tippin Gymnasium, but the 
pace quickened with the Eagles holding a 
42-38 halitime edge. The Canton, Ohio cagers 
came on strong from an underdog rating 
witli the score remaining close most of the 
way. 

With the board showing 75-75 as the clock 
ran out, Coach John Joy's quintet made good 
use of the extra minutes as George Lawry, 
Buddy Martin and Dennis Luce accounted 
for the final tallies. 

Sharing top scoring honors for Clarion were 
George I^awry and Larry Kubovchick, who 
dumped in 18 apiece. Captain Joe Chalmers 
was a close second with 17. 

Charles Collier was the leading hoopster 
for the Walshmen, swishing the net for 28. 

Clarion's freshmen topped the Ohioans, 92- 
74, in the preliminary.

the Rockets' home hardwood last Saturday 
to give Coach John Joy's cagers their second 
win in as many starts.

of two outings by a 63-60 score. 

Clarion's Captain Joe Chalmers was high 
scorer for the Eagles with 21, in a slow- 
starting contest that saw both teams playing 
a tight defense. 

Although the Eagles remained ahead most 
of the game, the margin remained one or 
two points until late in the fray when they 
pulled away only to have the Rockets close 
the gap again until the final minutes when 
the closing seven-point lead was attained. 

Larry Kubovchick, Buddy Martin and

THE CALL — Cla rion State College, Clarion, Pennsylvania 

Basketball Team Faces 
Tough Contest Tonight 



Coach John Joy's cagers wind up a hectic 
week of basketball tonight against the Fight- 
ing Scots of Edinboro in Tippin Gym 

While the Scots have lost 6' 9 " Mick Unick 
and (i" 7 " Jim Mann, their bench shows .seven 
lettermcn back from la.st .season's Western 
Division champions;hip team, the best in the 
history of the college. 

Add another returnee from two years ago 
to the Edinboro roster, and the Scots stack 
up as a formidable force. 

Senior letterman Frank Smith, 6' 2", NATA 
All American and a ♦ri-captain with Harry 
Jenkins rnc' Ron Weaver, scored a dazzling 
42 points in the Scots' win over Lock Haven 
last week and has been a leading threat 
on Coach Jim McDonald's squad throughout 
his collegiate career. 

Jenkins, NAIA District 18 Honorable Men- 
tion winner, as well as Weaver, Tim Ziner 
and Brookville's Larry Smith add some real- 
muscle to the senior ranks. 

Coach John Joy, with his assistants Tom 
Beck and Stan Hallman, have some strong 



men of their .own to pit against the Scots. 
Buddy Martin, 6' " junior, is emerging as 
a real power for the Eagles. The speedv 
baU handler has accounted for 48 {x>ints in 
the first three encounters, 16 of them at 
the foul line. He is a leading rebounder and 
plays a tonsistently good defensive game. 

Captain Joe Chalmers, 5' 8", belies his 
status as the smallest man on the squad 
with his fine shooting and defensive work. 
He amassed 46 points in the first three starts. 

Larry Kubovchick, 6' 1" senior, has netted 
45 tallies in the first three. Ho is making 
a strong comeback after silting out his junior 
year on an iniracLion. 

Performing in line fashion are Dennis Luce, 
5' 11 ' junior, All State honorable mention 
last year; George Lawry, 6' 4" junior, a 
consi.stcnt good shooter and fine defensive 
player; Bob Fusco, 6' 3 " senior and former 
All Stater who also sat out last year on 
an infraction, and towering John Park, 6' 9" 
.sophomore, who is really coming into his 
own under the hoop.

Cagers Participate in Tournaments, 
Leave Tomorrow for Troy, Alabama 



Within the next three weeks, Clarion's bas- 
ketball team, coached by John Joy, will 
participate in two toumments. 

The team leaves tomorrow for a tourna- 
ment at Troy State College in Troy, Ala- 
bama. Invited two years ago to Uiis tourna- 
ment, Clarion was unable to attend, due 
to a prior commitment with Edinboro. Troy 
State, which schedules a year in advance, 
offered the team a raincheck, which they 
accepted. 

On Monday night. Clarion will pit its 
strength against the host team, Troy; Ohio 
Northern University will play Bethel College 
of Tennessee. Tuesday night will be the 
consolation and final rounds. While in Troy, 
the team will stay at the Branding Iron 
Motel; they will return Wednesday. 



Ir preparation for the Indiana Christmas 
Tournament on December 27th and 28th, the 
team will return to Clarion on the 26th for 
two practice sessions. 

In addition to Clarion, Indiana has in- 
vited Point Park College from Pittsburgh and 
John F. Kennedy College in Nebraska. 

Although their vacations wUl be interrupt- 
ed, the team, according to Assistant Coach 
Thomas Beck, is quite enthusiastic about the 
tournaments and is looking forward to them. 
Mr. Beck feels that these tournaments are 
great morale boosters and give the team a 
chance to plav good solid teams from dif- 
ferent areas of the country. He also pointed 
out that, without the Indiana tournament, 
there would be a long lay-off between games.

Union is Formally Dedicated; 
Building is Dedicated for the 
'Enjoyment' of CSC Community 



Harvey Hall Student Union at Clarion was 
formally dedicated December 16 with a rib- 
bon cutting ceremony and dedicatory re- 
marks by students and faculty. 

Tom PaoUno, student senate president and 
member of the Student Union Board, served 
as master of ceremonies and introduced John 
Domenick, student senate past president, 
who spearheaded several years of effort to- 
ward establishing the faciUty. Domenick re- 
counted some of the spadework that brought 
the project into being. 

Speaking for President James Gemmell. 
Dr. Roger Hufford, professor of speech at 
the college, said he was "happy to see the 
fine results of the labor of those who have 
put in so much time and effort in the past." 

"This is jUvSt the beginning. We are going 
on from here, " Dr. Hufford concluded in 
reference to a new Student Union building 
to be built by the General State Authority 
on the Clarion campus in the near future. 



Owen Winters, student union board chair- 
man, cut a ribbon dedicating the building 
"to the enjoyment and use of the entire col- 
lege family." 

"Just a year ago the Student Union Board 
came into being. Now the results of our 
work go before the .students, who are the 
ultimate authority," he said. 

Also present at the ceremony were Clarion 
Board of Trustees President H. Ray Pope, 
Jr., and Mrs. Pope, 

Informally opened Nov. '21, the former 
Frank L. Harvey Gymnasium, completed in 
1931, was remodeled at an approximate co.st 
of $60,000. Including a lounge, billiards room 
and a balcony-type area for table games, 
the new facilities were created by subdividing 
and redecorating the former gymnasium ar- 
ea. 

The snack bar on the lower level, now 
in use for several years, has also been re- 
modeled. 



Chamber Music is Heard, Wednesday 
Performance is Termed 'VitaF 



By ROBERT VAN METER 
Professor of Music 

An enthusiastic and appreciative audience 
Wednesday evening enjoyed a concert of 
chamber music presented by staff members 
of the Department of Music. The program 
was remarkable for the quality and variety 
of the music performed, and the artistic fin- 
ish of the performances. 

The Trio in B-Qat, opus 11, by Beethoven, 
played by Christian Bohlen, clarinet; Vahe 
Berberian, cello; and Bong Hi Kim, piano, 
was a delightful confirmation of the sheer 
listening pleasure inherent in fine chamber 
music; the individuality of instrumental char- 
acter combined in richly designed counter- 
point. 

Mr. Bohlen's clarinet spoke with glowing 
warmth and beauty of tone. His playing was 
faultlessly shaded and explicitly phrased. Mr. 
Berberian's cello tone was both rich and 
transparent. Mrs. Kim played with fluency 
and with complete sensitivity to the possi- 
bilities of nuance, color and articulation of- 
fered by this interesting and seldom per- 
formed work. 

The Mendelssohn Trio in C minor, opus 
66, for violin, cello and piano, wns heard 
for the first time by this reviewer, and, I 
suspect, by most of the audience present, 
as well. The experience offered a new dis- 
covery in sound. It was a vital performance 
which posses.sed both vigor and nostalgia. 
The music — dark, brooding, and impassioned 
— was played with a broad sweep, pulsating 
with energy, yet fully revealing the intricate 
detail of each individual phrase. 



Mendelssohn in this work has combined 
a classic interest in clarity, harmony and 
balance of structural design with youthful 
and passionate expression of the ardent 
yearning of romanticism. This trio exists as 
an entity, a work which demands ensemble 
of the highest order in which the manifest 
talents of three players are combined in syn- 
chronized unitj' of purpose and propulsion. 
David Mallory, vioUnist, Vahe Berberian, cel- 
list, and Annette Roussel-Pesche, pianist, 
demonstrated individual instrumental com- 
mand and collective insight that fully enter 
the realm of artistry. 

The Trio in E-flat, opus 40, by Brahms 
was performed by Burton Hardin, French 
horn, David MaUory, violin, and Bong Hi 
Kim, piano. Their conception of this work 
estabUshed a mood of introspection and re- 
flection, lyrical rather than essentially dra- 
matic. Although the first movement offered 
the possibility of more compelling climaxes, 
the dramatic element was strongly intensi- 
fied in the vigorous cherzo with its haunting, 
almost terrifying middle section. 

Fascinating are the various colors which 
can be imparted to the tone of the French 
horn, the most romantic of the brass instru- 
ments, perhaps also the most demanding and 
difficult in performance techniques. Mr. Har- 
din explores at will its tonal resources and 
dynamic range. Although the horn Is noted 
for its ability to blend well with woodwind, 
brass or string sonorities, the achievement 
of perfect balance with the sonority of the 
piano still poses problems for this most flexi- 
ble and congenial brass participant in the 
chamber music ensemble. 



Faculty Changes Will Occur 
For Second Semester; Seven 
Profs Take Sabbatical Leaves 



When the second semester starts in the 
last week of January, there will be several 
faculty changes: Seven members of the fac- 
ulty will take sabbatical leave for the semes- 
ter. There will be three new faculty mem- 
bers, and there will be five temporary re- 
placements for those granted leave. 

In addition, one Clarion faculty member 
will return from leave; Miss Mary Kay Ban- 
ner, assistant professor in the laboratory 
school.

A new year brought a new name to the

California, Lock Haven, Slippery Rock, Edin- 
boro, and Shippensburg. In the Eastern Divi-

ference members recently admitted to the 
Eastern Colleges Athletic Conference, bring- 
ing to ten the number in the Pennsylvania 
Conference. 

In other action, the conference ratified a 
new constitution modelled after that of the 
ECAC, but with tighter restrictions in some 
areas. 



Those who have been granted sabbatical 
leave for the second semester are: 

Mr. Bob H. Copeland, associate professor 
of speech. 

Dr. Bruce H. Dinsmorc, professor of bio- 
logy and head of the department.

Sympathy to Family 

On behalf of the students, faculty, and ad- 
ministration, the Clarion Call staff would 
like to extend deep sympathy to the family 
and friends of Judy Miller, class of 1968, 
who died during Christmas vacation follow- 
ing a lingering illness.

duled to have its lirst meeting yesterday 
(Thursday). 

Appointment of the all-colle«e committee, 
consisting of four students and four faculty 
members, was announced on Tuesday by Pre- 
.sident .James Gemmell. Two ton.sultants were 
al.so api>ointed to assist the committee, whii-h

Gammas Sponsor Fund Drive; 
$264 is Donated to Hospital 



During the three weeks prior to the Christ- 
mas recess, the brothers of Alpha Gamma 
Phi Fraternity sponsored their annual fund 
drive for Children's Hospital in Pittsburgh. 

Centrally located in the lobby of Peirce 
Science Center, the brothers asked for dona- 



tions from students and faculty. 

This year the Gammas collected $204 which 
Dan Walovich and Carl De Riggi, two of 
the members, took to Station KDKA on Dec. 
22, where it was added to the general Chil- 
dren's Hospital Fund. 



Freezing Temperatures Cause 
Power F'ailures on Campus 



The freezing temperatures of the past few 
weeks has been the cause of another series 
of blackouts at Clarion. The first blackout 
was on Christmas night. The power was back 
in temporary service, however, until the 
storm on Saturday, Dec. 28. At 3:45, the 
power was out again, due to water which 
got around the high voltage electric wires. 
This time, power was not restored until the 
evening of Dec. 30. The power was again 
out from Tuesday morning, Dec. 31, until 
Wednesday afternoon. It has been kept in 
operation except for the short time it was 
turned off on Monday in order to make re- 
pairs. 

In Peirce Hall, 400 brook trout suffered 
from lack of air during the failure, although 
none died. Some refrigerated micro-organ- 
isms were lost, but the amount lost has not 
been disclosed. Chipmunks in the lab were 
defrosted, but have been refrozen. Some or-

to lack of oxygen. In the greenhouse, a num- 
ber of exotic plants died from the loss of 
heat. The man hours in research which were 
wasted cannot be counted.

CSC Is Awarded 
National Grant 

Clarion has been awarded anotlicr National 
Science Foundation grant to conduct a sum- 
mer program in Field Archaeology, accord- 
ing to Dr. Gustav A. Konitzky who will serve 
as prosram director. 

Dr. Konitzky, who is professor of Anthro- 
pology at Clarion and in charge of the col- 
leges archaeological field program, re- 
marked that this grant will bring 3,5 selected 
students to Clarion for a six-week summer 
institute in field archaeology. 

"This program will be independent from 
Clarion's annual Archaeological Field School 
for college undergraduates," Dr. Konitzky 
stated. 

"We expect heavy competition for the avail- 
able 35 places in the program, since any 
outstanding high school .student in the 11th 
and 12th grade in any school in the country 
has the right to apply " 

Last year's institute resulted in 822 appli- 
cations mailed from which a faculty .selec- 
tion committee screened 31 applicants for 
admission to the program. The students re- 
presented 23 states, the District of Columbia 
and Mexico.

is owned and was installed by the state. 
It carries 12,000 volts, and is maintained 
by West Penn Power. The whole system is 
in need of a major overhauling for prevention 
of further power failures. 

Reading Council 
Will Be Formed 
On Wednesday 

Some 40 public school administrators, .sup- 
ervisors and classroom teachers from Cla- 
rion, Forest. Jefferson, and Venango coun- 
ties will meet at Clarion State Wednesday, 
to organize a local council of the Internation- 
al Reading Association. 

The organizational meeting is being held 

in the Chandler Dining Hall at 7:30 p m. 

under the direction of the staff of the Ele- 
mentary Education Department. 

The purpose of the council w ill bo to focus 
attention on reading instruction with regard 
to the latest research, instructional proced- 
ures, and program development. 

Officers will be elected, committees will 
be appointed to carry out tho council's pro- 
gram, and steps will be taken to plan the 
first meeting of the council in April. 

The initial meeting is open to any public 
school personnel interested in reading. All 
those interested may register their intention 
to attend by contacting David H. Klindienst, 
at the training school. 

Directing tho meeting will be Walter Kou- 
kal. associate professor of elementary educa- 
tion. Dr. Betty Slater is in charge of facilit- 
ies and refreshment. Drs. Phyllis Smith and 
Arnold Zaeske have a.ssistod with planning. 



'.VO EXir IS GIVEN 

Play Termed 
'Successful' 

By JUDY CROSS 

The function of the performing arts is inter- 
pretation. The function of drama is either 
to entertain or instruct, although both goals 
can be achieved at the same time. Last 
night four College Readers, under the capable 
guidance of Dr. Mary Hardwick', presented 
No Exit by John Paul Sartre. They sucess- 
fuUy combined interpretation, entertainment, 
and instruction to give the audience a fine 
performance. 

Sartre's play was skillfully interpreted by 
all four readers. Paul Gaffney, a freshman, 
was seen as the valet. Although his role 
was small, he will undoubtedly be seen often 
in the future in Clarion's dramatic produc- 
tions. 

George Hall aptly played Garcin and was 
responsible for many electrifying moments. 
However, he occasionally let his usually effec- 
tive sardonic laughter become forced and 
false. 

Connie Carter was a magnificent Inez. She 
discreetly and lucidly displayed the nature 
of her character. Her physical contact with 
Estelle was delicate and believable, but not 
overdone. Throughout, Connie's intense emo- 
tional contact with the other characters and 
her splendid stage presence made her a very 
real Inez. 

Comic relief in the character of Estelle 
was a delight as presented by Suzan Albanesi. 
who was more concerned about the lack of 
a mirror in which to sec herself than about 
her new residence. Estelle was not recognized 
for profound thoughts, and the humor often 
came from incidents of her vanity. 

Although their characterizations were, for 
the most part, consistently believable, the 
audience may have unfortunately been dis- 
tressed by too many occa.sions when they 
had to strain to hoar what the Readers were 
saying. 

To some No Exit was surprisingly a very 
funny play. However, the laughter was often 
nervous and choked by the realization that 
"Hell is other people," is not a laughing 
matter. 

Certainly No Exit can easily be found to 
bo amusing, but it is equally thought provok- 
ing. During a discussion which followed the 
play, many questions and answers about the 
moaning of the play served to promote the in- 
tellectual merits of the play. Naturally, the 
discussion centered on Sartre's philosophy and 
what he was trying to say in No Exit. Among 
many possible answers, the mo.st pertinent 
point Sartre was trying to make seemed to 
be: "Man only finds his identity in terms 
of his action. He is not what he says, but 
what he does. ' 



Christie-Murray Visits Clarion 



David Christie-Murray, former associate 
professor of F^nglish at Clarion, recently re- 
turned to renew the many acquaintances he 
made while teaching here. He is presently 
a Ma.ster at Harrow vSchool in England. He 
has continued creating D. C.-M.s". the witty 
rhymes he began writing for the Call last 
year. These short poems ar« now being pub- 
lished in The Harrovian, Harrow's school pa- 
per. 



Mr. Christie Murray is continuing his liter- 
ary work as well as his teaching. His two 
older daughters. Ann and Allison, arc pre- 
sently active in drama, and Susan, his .voung 
est, is participating in athletic comjwtition 
at her .school. 

Mr. Christie-Murray was in America from 
Dec. 9 to 23. during which time he was 
honored at several social events While in 
Clarion, he stayed with Dr. Robin Wilson, 
professor of English, and Mrs. Wilson. 



pathology and audiology; Susan J. Kiddle, 
,)unior ma,joring ui library science; and Wil- 
liam L. Santee, junior majoring in English 
( secondary education ) . 

Tho two consultants are Allen R. Elliott, 
dean of student affairs, and 11. Wallace Brew- 
ster, special assistant to the president and 
a specialist in public law. 

According to Professor Harmon, yester- 
day's meeting was expected to be devoted 
to organizational matters. In general, the 
committee expects to set u;) procedures to 
be used in cases involving student discipline 
and to act as a committee of review if a 
student makes an appeal. 

Clarion Freshmen 
Win Fifth Plaee 
Debate Trophy 

Two Clarion freshmen won the fifth |)lacc 
debate trophy in a varsity tournament at 
Scranton University last weekend. 

Rebecca Kasper and Lilhan Pfaff achieved 
the honor in competition with 20 varsity teams 
from four states. Their record was 42 in 
a switch-sides, power matched competition. 

Due to an error in tabulations, the trophy 
was awarded to St. Johns of Jamaica. Follow- 
ing the discovery of the error, the hosts 
from Scranton decided to award a duplicate 
trophy to Clarion in the near future. 

Three other teams of novice debaters com- 
piled undefeated records in no\ ice competi- 
tion at Clarion the same weekend. 

The top affirmative team at the Clarion 
tournament was Bob Banks of Ambridge and 
Frank Falso of Coraopolis. These two Clarion 
novices had a 3-1 record, with wins over 
SUppery Rock A and B and Pitt at Johnstown, 
and a single loss to Geneva. 

Banks and Falso were teamed with Carra- 
way and Schultheiss, and their combined 7 1 
record was good enough for first place in 
the seven-team tournament at Clarion. As 
Clarion was ineligible for awards at their 
own tournament, the trophy went to Geneva 
College, the \isiting school with the best win- 
loss record. 

Alan Carraway was the lop individual 
speaker in the tournament with 8.5 quality 
points. Barry McCauliff of Clarion was .second 
with 7, Jim Rarick of Clarion was third with 
5, and Judy McAuley of Clarion was fourth 
with 3.33.

Editorially 
Speaking 

Pass-Fail System — 
Is it Worthwhile? 



It is mid-January and the students 
of Clarion again find themselves facing 
the battery of final exams. Books that 
are dusty from weeks of lying on the 
shelf are taken down and opened. 
Cofi'ee, No-Doz. and aspirin are in 
great demand while many dormitory 
lights buin thioughout the early hours 
of morning. Students with red, road- 
map eyes stumble from class to class 
and from test to test wondering when 
the day will end. And the goal of this 
exhausting effort is simply to earn a 
grade. 

This time of year also brings many 
conjectures about the worth of testing 
and grading. Many people in colleges 
aiid universities throughout the nation 
are in favor of dropping the examina- 
tion and grading method for some 
other system such as a pass-fail sys- 
tem. This system would combine the 
excellent students and the mediocre 
students into a single group while do- 
ing the same to the poor and failing 
students. 

Perhaps the rigors of final exam- 
inations and the sometimes unpleasant 
results of them prejudice the student 
against the grading system. And per- 
haps there is some justification in criti- 
cizing this method of measuring aca- 
demic success. But a measuring in- 
strument should be as accurate as pos- 
sible. And dividing the scale into the 
five parts, A-B-C-D-E, seems to tell a 
more complete story than the pass-fail 
division. And what is better for de- 
termining a student's rank oft' the gl*£id'e 
scale than the test? 

Aside from the point of accuracy 
in determining a student's success, 
there is also the problem of creating an 



incentive. To be sure the diploma is 
an incentive to the student as is the 
prospect of higher social status, better 
job opportunities and last but not least, 
higher salaries. But the grade is also 
an incentive and it is an immediate re- 
ward and not deferred as are the oth- 
ers mentioned. The student who 
strives for the "A" by putting forth 
great effort is proud of his accomplish- 
ment. By taking away his "A" and 
placing him in the passing group with 
other students who have exerted less 
effort, we would be taking away his 
distinction. And many students would 
decrease their efforts knowing that 
they will be in the passing group whe- 
ther they do excellent or mediocre 
work. 

Finally the grading scale gives the 
benefit of the doubt to the poor stu- 
dent. Although a student may not de- 
serve to pass a course, he may have 
derived some benefit from it. In this 
case the student should receive a "D", 
and therefore get some credit for his 
efforts. In the pass-fail system he 
would receive no credit. And if this 
student did learn enough to help him 
earn a better standing upon repeating 
the course, he would be recorded only 
as passing, and not as doing good or 
excellent. 

Thus the pass-fail system, however 
good it may seem to the red-eyed col- 
lege student taking final exams, dis- 
criminates against the good as well as 
the pQor student. The best remedy 
for red. road-map eyes is to begin 
studying for final exams a few weeks 
before they begin. I know we all will 
. . . next semester.

Are Our 'Clear-Cut^ Policies Clear? 



The students of Clarion State have 
shown much concern over the cut sys- 
tem of this institution. But there 
seems to be another matter which has 
now become even more critical — the 
procurement of legal excuses. 

Some students who went to the 
infirmary on Friday, December 20, 
were greeted with a curt "Sorry, we 
aren't excusing anyone today." (This 
was done without referring the stu- 
dent to a doctor.) How could this hap- 
pen? One member of the Health Ser- 
vices staff said this was only in re- 
sponse to a memo from the Office of 
the Dean of Student Affairs. 

This memo was not an order from 
that office for that day only. It was a 
reminder to the staff members of the 
extent of their power — zero. The 
memo also served as an easy "out" for 
doctors and nurses who were swamped 
with so many students, students who 
must have been feigning illness. 

Oh, yes. some of these students 
were sick, but not so sick that they 
couldn't attend classes. Many of them 
did not even have elevated tempera- 
tures, a factor which seems to be the 
sole criterion for judging whether or 
not a student is really ill. (This would 
appear to ignore the fact that it is dur- 
ing this 'not so sick' period that an 
illness is most communicable.) 

This is the reasoning of someone 
whose only concern is to see th^ we 
have the required number of class 
days, regardless of student health. This 
is also the expression of someone who 
has not had the Hong Kong flu. 

Many students, frightened by the 
prospect of no excuse, forced them- 
selves to go to class. Well-meaning 
individuals thus endangered their 
health, as well as the health of the 
students around them. This aLso made 
it possible for many students to carry 
the sickness home with them, spreading 
disease to their family and friends. 

How could a student have legiti- 
mately cut cla.ss that last Friday with- 
out feelinfj thn pangs of guilt one gets 



when cutting a class? The whole sys- 
tem of legal absences is so vague, most 
students were not Sure if they really 
were excused. We will now try to 
clarify the matter. 

First, did you know that neither 
he doctors nor the nurses at the in- 
■irmary have the authority to excuse 
you from classes? (This is assuming 
you are not already bedridden — which 
is an automatic excuse.) Oh, yes, this 
is plainly stated in your student hand- 
book-— on page . . . well, it's in there 
somewhere. 

So now you know. Every time you 
went to that infirmary and the nurse 
took your name . . . you weren't legal- 
ly excused from classes, your name 
was merely added to a list of many 
students who had 'received medical 
attention.' This list, along with vari- 
ous other lists, was then sent to the 
Dean of Academic Affairs, From this 
office is issued a daily list of all stu- 
dents with half-worthwhile excuses. All 
your instructors receive one of these 
lists. Do you .see the trouble you've 
caused? All that bookkeeping because 
of you. a mere student. 

You're legally excused now, right? 
Wrong! 'Vour professor has the right 
either to accept or to reject that ex- 
cuse, and you're definitely responsible 
for the work you missed. Now that is 
ill the handbook. 

So now, pale and drawn from your 
recent illness, you must drag yourself 
to each of your classes and collect 
your assignments, while trying to con- 
vince your professors that you really 
were sick. The responsibility for at- 
tending to your absences has been 
placed where it belongs — on you, the 
student. 

You say you have a professor who 
doesn't read the list of absentees? May 
we refer you to our perfectly clear-cut 
policy . . .

Letters to The Editor 



The 'Old School' 

Editor, The Call: 

It seems that every group pos.sessing a 

cau-se" has recently emerged to extract 
some form of .support from the success of 
the .spectacular Apollo 8 Hight. The unbtv 
lieving scientists stated that the results mnly 
confirmed the fact that twlief in a divine 
power is now outdated, the minister claimed 
that the events have proved that man is 
constantly humbled when he ventures into 
tlie vast universe created by God. Even the 
economists took the view that the success 
of the flight proved the vast superiority of 
tile American economic system. But as an 
Individual now involved in that process of 
learning to teach and convey ideas to the 
children of the future, I viewed the Apollo 
space flight with a different interest. 

Those three brave and highly intelligent 
men who flawlessly guided the orbiting cap- 
sule were a product of what is called the 
"old school" of educaticn. They were educa- 
ted in an age when the memorization of 
the arithmetic tables was a must, when spell- 
ing and penmanship were constantly drilled 
and the state capitols were recited in class, 
when respect for elders and classroom eti- 
quette were unquestionable, when the Lords 
Prayer began each day and the love of their 
country and its history grew with each pro- 
gressive grade. 

To see the change in the educational pro- 
cess since those days, one only has to pay 
a visit to a neighborhood school Order is 
a joke, resjiect tor the teacher and other 
adults non-existent. Furniture is destroyed, 
books and materials destroyed and the charac- 



teristics of the old school ' are all but for- 
gotten. 

It is said that the object of education is 
to teach students to "think" and that the 
new educational processes do ju,st tliat. 
Teachers learn to treat the students with 
psychology instead of a boot in the pants. 
Textbooks must be full of colorful illustrations 
the child may relate to his environment. 
Sets and elements now make the memori- 
zation of arithmetic tables obsolete. Class- 
room furniture must be contoured and color 
coordinated. Such is the "new school" of 
education. 

I don't know if the astronauts educated un- 
der the "old school" ever learned how to 
"think." You be the judge— but I have a 
funny feeling they didn't make the trip by 
magic. 

STEVE BREZZO 

Tapes Wasted 

Editor, The Call: 

It is my understanding that the Clarion 
Library has a collection of close to 600 re- 
cordings. As students, we are not allowed 
access to these records, but most of them 
have been recorded on tapes for student use. 
I am also under the impression that there 
are 20 tape decks in tlie basement of Old 
Science that are for student use. These tape 
decks have been in storage for two years. 
Although many of our instnictors have re- 
quested the installation of these machines, 
nothing has been done to fulfill their requests. 
What must we do to obtain the use of these 
tapes and tape decks?

Of Clarion Call 

In the 1967-1968 school year the 
Call was fortunate in being able to 
print in its columns several short poems 
by David Christie-Murray, a visiting 
associate professor of English. Al- 
though Professor Christie-Murray has 
returned to England, he composed an- 
other bit of light verse during a short 
visit to the United States in December, 
and the editors of the Call are delight- 
ed to be able to print another "D. C- 
M." 

WORSE AND HEARSE 

(A Doctors' House in Clarion has re- 
cently become a funeral home.) 
Patients do die, in spite of doctors' 
skill, 

And doctors move elsewhere to cure 
or kill, 

But should one substitute for the 
physician 

— As if he were an ally — the morti- 
cian? 

And should rouged, healthy corpses 
lie in state 

Where once poor pallid corpses used 
to wait? 

Men die, in spite of medico and nurse, 
But should the house take a turn for 
the hearse? 

— D. C.-M. (post mortem!)

Personal Facts 
Are Revealed 



By M.4GG!E BEIERLE 

The resiUts of a recent, considerably exten- 
.sivc canvassing of CSC campus concerning 
the intimate personal facts about the occupa- 
tion, recreation and miscellaneous activities 
of both the male and female species of stu- 
dents during their recent leave of absence 
from the stimulating intellectual atmosphere 
provided by this educational institution unfbr- 
tunately cannot be revealed due to the legal 
suits which would i>e immediately following. 
However, the benevolent editt)rs have con- 
sented to F)rint a brief statistical analysis 
compiled for your reading enjoyment. 
Statistics 

Planned to do extensive .studying, 94%; took 
books home (for parents' benefit), 87.3%; ac- 
tually OF)ened the books, 12.7%; actually stud- 
ied, .63% ; made New Year's rasolutions, 75%,; 
those who have, to date, kept them, 29.35%o 
(this figure is accounted for by the large 
number of resolutions concerning the con- 
sumi>tion of alcohol next December 31); tho.se 
who were mugged at Times Square on New 
Year's Eve, .04%; those who were disillusion- 
ed about Santa Claus this year, M%. 
Unusual Individual Endeavors 

Several of the faculty members spent their 
vacations in interesting ways: 

Mr. Lillstrom explored the bottom of the 
Atlantic. 

Mr. Grejda checked Tahiti for authenticity 
of Melville's writings. 

Mr. Redfern explored retirement possibili- 
ties in Florida. 

Mr. GraybiU spent his entire vacation grad- 
ing term papers. 

Coach Jacks spent his time drilling his 
three-year-old son on lateral passes. 

Several .students did almost as well: 

Raine Martin sat through 27 con.secutive 
performances of "Funny Girl," making this 
a "jrand total of 184 times she has seen the 
film. 

Sa'Iy Ann Snyder sold coloring books door 
to door. 

Bob Heimann traveled to New York City to 
see "Hair" (it is allowed there). 

Willie Saimders and John Dorish established 
a Jitney service in the Hill district. 

One student, who asked us to withhold his 
name, sabotaged the electrical system at CSC, 
in hopes of having final week cancelled.

Dr. Hardwick is Largely Responsible for Work Clarion Hosts 
Of College Readers; Readers Aim to Recreate ^ 



*Ideas, Emotions, and Experiences of an Author' 



By JERRILYN JONES 

"Got a mind? Want it blown (or at least 
shaken a little)? Then the College Readers 
have something for you!" 

So l)egau a rtory in the October 18th issue 
of the Clarion Call. The story announced 
a production (Mac Leish's J.B.) by the Col- 
lege Readers, an on-campus drama group. 
Advised by Dr. Mary Hardwick, associate 
professor of speech, the Readers e^stitute 
an interesting and informative extracurricu- 
lar activity. 

What the College Readers have to offer 
the students of Clarion State College is par- 
tially the result of the work of their sponsor. 
Dr. Hardwick. "The t)est way to describe 
me would be to say that I am theater-or- 
iented. I have rummaged from oae job to 
another to be near, in, around the theater." 
Dr. Hardwick's enthusiasm and energy play 
an important part in the organization of the 
Readers. Her experience in the world of the 
theater is a valuable asset to the Readers. 
Dr. Hardwick earned her living as an actress 
at the Pittsburgh Playhouse. She has worked 
as a drama consultant at the First Presby- 
terian Church of Stamford, Conn., in its 
ministry of drama. "While I worked there 
I asked myself: What can a play teach -us 
as human beings? Can it teach us how to 
live?" 

diurch Work Confining 

Dr. Hardwick found church work too con- 
fining, too rule-and-regulation ridden. "That 
was when 1 decided to become an educator." 
She left religious drama in 1964 and went 
to work on her Ph.D. at Michigan State. For 
the three years she spent in residence at 
the university, she supported herself by work- 
ing as an actress. Dr. Hardwick stated her 
goal as a teacher and adviser: "You could 
say that I am motivated by the desire to 
find a way and means to achieve a fuller 
and richer life for the individuals with which 
I come in contact." The Readers are indeed 
lucky to have such an able adviser. 

The aims of the Readers are many. The 
primary concern is recreating for an audi- 
ence the ideas, emotions, and experiences 
set down by an author. This recreation of 
experiences is artistic and dramatic in nature. 
The selection and analysis of literature plays 
an important part in the aims of the Rea(fers. 
Experiences found by the Read^-s in chosen 
material are assimilated and then projected 
to an audience by means of physical and 
vocal techniques. According to Dr. Hardwick, 
this oral interpretation of literature is m<wre 
difficult than acting; the techniques of oral 
inteipretation involve physical restraint. The 
reader must project to an audience with his 
voice and facial expressions what an actor 
projects with his whole body. The chief goal 
of the Readers is audience understanding 
and enjoyment. 

Physical Restraint Necessary 

The literature used by the College Readers 
must be that which lends itself well to being 
read aloud. Dramatic material which is pri- 
marily dependent on action for impact iffli't 
suitable because of the physical restraint tltat 
must be exercised in oral interpretation. The 
material must be audial; the audi^ice must 
be able to visualize characters, setting, and 
action without actually seeing them. 

Hie kind of person that would most enjoy 



participating in the Readers' activities would 
be a person who has performance interest; 
he would have to be willing to go before 
an audience to instruct or to entertain. Ac- 
cording to Dr. Hardwick, memt>ership in the 
Reaaers would be the perfect experience for 
the person who desires a recreational and 
creative outlet for his feelings and ideas as 
well as an outlet for free expression. 

The Readers engage in two tyi>es of annual 
activities. The first kind consists of major 
performances such as "In White America" 
which was put on last spring. The second 
kind of activity is travel. The Readers attend 
oral interpretation festivals and workshops, 
and contests. These activities present an op- 
portunity for constructive, informative group 
or professional evaluations of readings, as 
well as an opportunity to meet new people 
and acquire new ideas. 

Material To Be Screened 

The Readers are now working on the for- 
mation of a show-case committee for the 
screening of the original material l)eing sub- 
mitted to them for possible use. Plans for 
the future include an attempt to gain official 
clearance for the use of space in Davis Hall 
for a weekly reading hour. Also, the Readers 
are engaged in raising funds to send to Eng- 
land the six readers and guitarist who per- 
formed "In White America." In England, 
the Readers would tour churches and schools, 
giving performances. This trip is slated for 
May and June of 1969, if the Readers are 
successful in raising the necessary money. 

Members of the College Readers are very 
enthusiastic about the organization, its goals, 
and its activities. In interviews with several 
members, two qqestions were asked: "Why 
did you join the Readers? " and "What do 
you feel you're getting out of your member- 
ship? " 

George Hall, acting president of the Read- 
ers, answered the first question this way: 
"My Interest in the Readers' Theater began 
in iiigh school. I attended Central Dauphin 
in East Harrisburg, and my school took sev- 
eral championships in speech and oral inter- 
interpretation." To the second question, 
George replied: "I feel I'm gaining insight 
into literary works. I get a personal satis- 
faction out of expressing myself, out of doing 
something. The art of expression is a big 
part of people's lives. I feel the satisfaction 
of accomplishing something and of reaching 
an audience so they can share my exper- 
iences." 

Cites Enjoyment, Satisfaction 

Cece Carter, acting secretary of the College 
Readers, when asked why she joined, replied. 
"Out of respect for Dr. Hardwick and out 
of the enjoyment I get out of oral interpre- 
tation. I want to help promote activities for 
Clarion students, activities that will help 
bring out unrealized potential." To the second 
question, Cece replied, "I am able to express 
myself more fully. I get a satisfaction, a 
sense of accomplisliment from oral interpre- 
tation. I am getting to understand other peo- 
ple better, and I really enjoy it. Besides, 
being a Reader is fun. And I'm learning 
oral interpretive techniques while I'm having 
fun." 

Cwinie Carter, a memtier of bc^ the Col- 
lege Readers and the College Players, re- 
sjgoaded t his way to the first questioa; "The 



Readers give me an opportunity to explore 
a new and challenging method of verbal com- 
munication.' 

To the second question, sne replied: "1 
feel I have learned more effective expres- 
sion of my own thoughts and feelings through 
learning to clearly and accurately express the 
views of different authors. 1 have gained 
a valuable skill for both in and out of the 
classroom. I have gained experience. There 
has been an expansion of my mind and per- 
sonality because of the different roles I have 
read. I have gained a better understanding 
of people through readings, travel exper- 
iences, and meeting new people. I have 
learned vocal control and improved my speak- 
ing and understanding of human nature." 

The College Readers have much to offer 
to a Clarion student: instruction in oral inter- 
pretive techniques, vocal and literary exper- 
iences, travel, the chance to meet people 
and exchange ideas. The Oct. 18 story seems 
to sum up the Readers and tJie opportunities 
they offer students: "Got a mind? Want it 
blown (or at least shaken a little)? Then 
the College Readers have something for 
you!" 



Seneca Valley High School, ZeLienople, cop- 
, ped first-place trophy in an open invitational

at the hands of the Point Park Pioneers 
last Monday night in Tippin Gym. 

Clarion's team, with sloppy passing and 
failure to get the rebounds, were definitely 
off-form and blew a shakily attained 33-26 
halftime lead to let the Pioneers of Pittsburgh 
steadily widen the gap in the second half. 

Point Park's Bill Long was the big gun 
in blasting the Eagles with 27 points, nine 
of them made at the foul line; Ed Ritchie 
also found the target with 14. 

Buddy Martin, a fairly strong player, paced 
the Eagles with 16 points. George Lawry, 
who will be out of action for a few games 
with a sprained ankle, dumped in 13. Larry 
Kubovchick. reinjuring his ankle, also missed 
the CaUfornia game Wednesday.

many field goals as the foes, although the 
visitors outdid them at the foul line, 25-23. 
The Eagle frosh converted 60 percent of their

Eagle Grapplers Score Victory; 
Give Up Only Ten Points 



Clarion State grapplers handily swept their 
second quadrangular meet in as many weeks 
Saturday, giving up only ten points while 
chalking up 116 against the opposition. 

The Golden Eagles defeated Shippensburg, 
35-6; Slippery Rock, 43-0, and Indiana Univer- 
sity of Pennsylvania, 38-2. 

Coach Bob Bubbs matmen allowed only 
two points to the foes the week before as 
they squashed Brockport of New York, 34-2; 
Frostburg of Maryland, 45-0, and Howard 
University, 45-0. 

Not only are the Clarion grunt and groaners 
undefeated against their first six foes, but 
have won a phenomenal 62 out of 66 bouts 
and a spectacular 240 points to 10 for the 
opposition. 

Setting somewhat of a record for the Eagles 
is Tyrone's Gary Di Domenico. Wrestling 
in the 177 pound class, the scrappy sophomore 
has pinned all three of his opponents in the 
first period in the three matches in which 
he has wrestled thus far. 

Saturday night the freshmen downed Ship- 
pensburg, 29-6, and the B team won an ex- 
hibition from Shippensburg, 31-8. 



Before the Christmas layoff. Clarion grap- 
plers traveled to Mansfield for a single 
match December 17. The B squad went to 
Gannon December 18.

TEAM IS UNDEFEATED 



Matmen Travel to Cleveland; 
Face Bloomsburg Next Week 



Clarion State grapplers, having accomplish- 
ed the feat of allowing opponents but two 
points in their two quadrangular matches 
so far this year, are honing up for their 
third big quad tomorrow at Cleveland State 
University. 

Facing the Golden Eagles in Cleveland will 
be Dayton University, Cleveland State and 
Miami of Ohio. The latter edged Clarion last 
year in a 82-81 cliffhanger. Events are sche- 
duled for 1:30 and 7:30 p.m. at Bedford High 
School, Bedford, Ohio. 

Coach Bob Bubb's matmen have yet to 
wrestle their first dual this season and Cla- 
rion area wrestling fans will be setting their 
sights on a January 18 meet with highly 
touted Bloomsburg in Tippin Gymnasium. 
The freshmen will go to the mat at 6 p.m. 
and the varsity at 8 p.m. 

A December 17 dual slated at Mansfield 
was cancelled due to a flu epidemic in that 
community, but may be rescheduled before 
the end of the season. 

Now 5-1, the Huskies are considered one 
of the better teams in the East and are 
rated sixth by the NAIA. They have a good 
nucleus from last year's 7-4-1 squad and a 
fine group of sophomores from their 7-1 fresh- 
man team of 1967-68. 

Bob Bubb's Golden Eagle grapplers face 
their sternest test of the still young wrest- 
ling season next Saturday when they host 
a formidable Bloomsburg squad in their first 
conference sortie. 

Always a power in mat circles. Coach Ru.s- 



sell Houk's aggregation has overcome such 
opponents c3 Appalachian State, Old DomiJ- 
ion, Ashland, Mansfield and Indiana Univer- 
sity of Pennsylvania. Their only loss this 
season has been to Southern Illinois. 

Houk's hardy Huskies no longer have the 
services of former N.A.I. A. champ Joe Gerst, 
152 pounds; Dave Jones, 191 pounds; and 
Kurt Grabfelter, 130 pounds, who have gone 
the diploma route, but the veteran mentor 
has replaced them with some fine new con- 
tenders. 

Leading the returning veterans is Captain 
Ron Russo, last year's Pennsylvania Confer- 
ence champ and N.A.I. A. runner-up who pla- 
ced sixth in N.C.A.A. competition at 137 
pounds. He will meet Clarion's Bob Teagar- 
den, Waynesburg senior (6-0), in that weight 
class. 

Wayne Heim, 123 pounds, runner-up in the 
Pennsyhania Conference last year and recent 
Wilkes College tourney winner, will meet Cla- 
rion's Phil Detore, Greensburg junior and 
conference champ last year, in what should 
be one of the evenings outstanding bouts. 

Another probable top bout will likely put 
Clarion's Santo Ricotta, Clearfield junior, 
against Jim Owen at 167 pounds. 

Gary Di Domenico. 191-pound Golden Eagle 
from Tyrone, will probably go against Dave 
Jones in a hard-fought contest. 

Other Huskies to watch will be Keith Tay- 
lor, 115 pounds: Arnold Thompson, 160 
pounds, and Jim McCue, heavyweight.

New Sign-Out System for Women JazZ ^^h^l Artist — Novelist — Play wright J^ CarrerO 



Takes Effect, Allows More Freedom 



As of last week women residents of Cla- 
rion State College are able to use a new 
sign-out procedure. The new system which 
had its beginning last semester, allows the 
residents to leave their dormitory without 
signing out. providing they return before 
9 p.m. Under the past system, the sign-out 
time was 7 p.m. 

Women are no longer required to give a 
destination, the time of departure and the 
name of the person accompanying tliem; 
they must indicate only that they are "out" 
and will return by the curfew. Dorm resi- 
dents mu.st leave an address or phone num- 
ber at which they can bo reached if they 
plan to leave the dorm overnight. 



This information may be put on the in- 
dividual's sign-out card or in a sealed en- 
velope which will be kept in the resident's 
own mailbox. If a girl chooses the second 
method, she need give only the time of de- 
parture and expected time of return on the 
sign-out card. 

The new procedure was formulated hv the 
Women's Residence Board after many com- 
plaints from residents that their wherea- 
bouts was made public by the old sign-out 
sy.stem. The new system gives more indi- 
vidual freedom and allows the women re- 
sidents to exercise discretion and responsi- 
bility in choosing the place they wish to 
frequent. 



CSC Deliaters Pile Up Victories 
In Illinois, Penna. Contests 



Clarion's debaters started tiie new year 
successfully with victories in both Illinois 
and Pennsylvania on the weekend of Jan. 
10-11. 

At Illinois State University, in competition 
with 40 colleges from 10 states, Clarion fin- 
ished tied for honors in two divisions of 
debate. 

In the varsity four-man division, .sopho- 
mores Marilyn Roslanowick of Meadville and 
Frank Falso of Coraopolis tied for first 
place on the affirmative with a 4-2 record, 
and wins over Eastern Illinois, Concordia, 
Rock Valley, and Northeastern Illinois. No 
affirmative was able to win more than four 
rounds. Others tied with Clarion at 4-2 were: 
Illinois State, Bowling Green, Wayne State, 
and Bradley. 

On the negative, Kaye Berkey of Jenners- 
town and Pat Dobson of Penn Hills had a 
5-1 record, with wins over Iowa, Northern 
Illinois, Indiana State, and MacMurray. 

OveralU-Ciwaea's.^^^ record tied them for 
third place. The third place trophy was 
awarded to Augustana on speaker points. 
Ironically, Clarion had higher speaker points 
than first and second place Bowling Green 
and Wayne State, both of whom finished 
with 10-2 overall records. Kay Berkey was 
the fourth place individual debater in the 
tournament, and Pat Dobson ninth. 

In the two-man cross-examination divi- 
sion, juniors Mary Lou McCauliff of Johns- 
town and Betti Ferguson of Gibsonia had 
enough wins to make the quarterfinal elim- 
ination rounds, but lost when the tie was 
broken on speaker points. McCauliff and Fer- 
guson had wins over Northwestern, Illinois, 
Indiana State, and Macalester, and losses 
to Michigan State and Bradley. 

Clarion speakers also won "Excellent" 
awards in every individual event they com- 



p<>ted in in Illinois. Mary Lou McCaulilT won 
an excellent in oratory, missing first place 
by vwo paints. Kay Berkey won an excel- 
lent in persuasive speaking. Betti Ferguson 
won excellents in both oratory and oral in- 
terpretation, missing fir.st place in oral in- 
terpretation by just two points. 

Meanwhile, Clarion's freshman novice team 
of James Rarick of New Brigiiton and Al 
Carraway of Grausville won the first place 
negative trophy at Geneva College with a 
record of three wins and one loss. Rarick 
and Carraway had wins over Denson, Thiel, 
and Westminster, and a single loss to the 
first place affirmative team from Susque- 
hanna. 

The novice affirmative team of Bob Banks, 
Ambridge, and Sue Ann Knowles, New Cas- 
tle, had a 3-1 record at Geneva, with wins 
over Geneva, Westminster, and Susquehan- 
na, and a loss in the last round to Thiel.

HANDEL, BEETHOVEN, FRANCK 

Musicianship Is Excellent 
In Mallory - Pesche Recital 



By BURTON E. HARDIN 
Assistant Professor of Music 

Excellence in musicianship and virtuosity 
was the order of the day at the faculty 
recital Wednesday night by violinist David 
Mallory with Annette Roussel-Pesche at the 
piano. Both are assistant professors of music 
at Clarion State. 

The Handel Sonata in D. Major was a 
model of clarity and perfect intonation. The 
style was captured with pleasing precision 
Hindemith, one of the few modem composers 
whose writing can always be recongized, was 
the composer of the second work, Sonata 
in E. Melodic lines, phrases and balance 
imparted by the team of Mallory and Pes- 
che, gave the work musicality which pleased 
even the most conservative listeners. Phobias 
about the "listenability" of twentieth century 
composers were shattered by the musical 
phrases and well-balanced harmonies. 

The Beethoven "Spring" Sonata in F Major, 



Op. 24 was equally well done. The scherzo 
with its mimicking echo effects between the 
instruments was startling in its brevity, but 
was well balanced by the preceding expres- 
sive movement. 

After the intermission the Franck Violin So- 
nrta was performed. Although one often ex- 
pects boring length and repetitious hackneyed 
devices from some of the late Romantic per- 
iod composers, none was in evidence with 
this performance. The sont-ta exhibited all 
the skill and originality composers such as 
Brahms, and the excellent performance fur- 
ther contributed to the musical effect. Ohe 
of the most difficult and exhausting compos- 
itions for both instruments, there was no 
evidence of this to be found in the perfor- 
mance. 

Throughout the recital, both performers re- 
affirmed their standing as experienced pro- 
fessional artists, and it was obvious to this

A new system of checking a student's iden- 
tification has been initiated in Chandler Din- 
ing Hall this semester. 

Prior to this semester, a student ID card 
had to be shown to eat in Chandler. Be- 
cause the checkers were not examining each 
individual card, hut only checking U) .see 
tliat each student in line had one, it was 
easy for other students to cat there simply 
by showing their ID card.s even though they 
were not validated for Chandler Dining Hall. 

A new system is being tried this semes- 
ter. Each student who cats in Chandler is 
given a special ticket which is good for one

month. At each meal the corresponding 
num!>er is punched on the ticket. This month 
the tickets were distributed in Egbert Hall 
through the office of the dean of student af- 
fairs. From now on however, they will be 
issued to resident students through their 
dorms, but non-residents will have to pick 
theirs up in Egbi rt Hall. 

The change was necessary because of tlie 
large number of students who were eating 
free of charge. These same people seemed 
to be causin;* the hehaviur problems in the 
cafeteria, and according to George Curtis, 
an assistant dean of .student affairs, some 
change was necessary. After considering 
several systems, the one with the tickets 
was accepted as the most practical one for 
the situation in Chandler. It will be used 
for this semester, and if it solves the prob- 
lem, it will be continued. 

Mr. Curtis said this new system has not 
completely solved the problem in Chandler. 
He blames part of tlie situation on the 
shape of the dining hall and the fact that 
there are tew many doors and too many 
lines. He said tho.se who have paid to eat 
often get extra food for tliose who haven't 
paid and the same problem results. Accord- 
ing to Mr. Curtis, when this problem is 
eliminateu, Servomation Mathias, the cater- 
ers of Chandler Dining Hall, may save 
thousands of dollars and those who do eat 
there legitimately will benefit. 

Presently students are showing their meal 
ticket and their ID card to eat in Chand- 
ler, but Mr. Curtis said it will not be ne- 
cessary to show the ID when all the meal 
tickets have been used.

Pan-American Union. 

Carrero's play, "Flag Inside," won an 
award in 1966; his short story, "La Piedra 
de Orchard Beach," received the Esso 
prize in 1967, and his novel, "Raquelo Tiene

1967. 

Carrero is a close friend of Dr. Gilbert 
N^iman, professor of English at Clarion, 
with whom he worked in Puerto Rico. Dr. 
Neiman, in his capacity of teacher and ed- 
itor, published Carrero's works and aided in 
his hterary development.

Golddigger's Weekend Next 

Attention, girls! 

"Golddigger's Weekend," next Friday and 
Saturday, will soon be here, offering CSC 
girls the chance to "bag their man" even 
though this is not a leap year. 

The idea of a "Golddigger's Weekend" is 
similar to a Sadis Hawkins' Weekend. In 
other words, the firls will ask the boys to 
these events, then pick them up at t<heir 
dorm and return them safely afterwards. 

Highlighting the weekend will be a dance 
Friday with the Golddiggers and a concert 
on Saturday with the Happenings. The Soc- 
ial Committee hopes that all girls will par- 
ticipate in this event.

On Registration — Isn H a Change 
At Least Worth a Try? 



Many interesting comments were 
overheard at registration last week. 
Among them were such statements as, 
"I've been waiting in this darn line for 
three and a half hours and I'm still not 
through," "This schedule is all messed 
up," and "My number is 134. What's 
yours?" 

After a careful review of the com- 
ments, one can readily see that many 
students were dissatisfied with Clar- 
ion's system of registration. The lines 
were long and tedious — many students 
were forced to wait for several hours 
before schedule changes and adjust- 
ments could be made. In addition, a 
large number of mistakes were made 
on the students' schedules which had 
to be altered before the first day of 
class. For this reason many students 
had no choice but to put up with the 
inconvenience of waiting. 

Last November, students pre-regis- 
tered for the courses that they wanted 
to take this semester. In the mean- 
time, the schedules were computed and 
were ready for distribution during reg- 
istration week. The first step of the 
registration procedure included a long 
wait in lines that never seemed to end. 
Following the waiting period, each 
student received his computed sched- 
ule and picked up the necessary cards 
that were to be filled out. If the sched- 
ule contained no conflicts and if the 
schedule satisfactorily matched the 
pre-registration schedule, the student 
proceeded through the remaining reg- 
istration steps. ' 

But, many of thej^e schedules were 
not satisfactory, and, as a result, stu- 
dents were subjected to a distasteful 
period of waiting to have these sched- 
ules adjusted. Many students became 
angry and felt that the long waiting 
periods could have been avoided. Like- 
wise, the deans who were making the 
changes, as well as the faculty mem- 
bers participating in registration pro- 
cedures, seemed to be weary and less 
cooperative after the first several hund- 
red changes were made. 

Surely Clarion could make use of 
a more effective system of registration. 
If, for example, students were given a 
copy of the times that every class was 
being held and also the names of the 
instructors of each class when they 
pre-register, many mistakes could be 
avoided. A student has no way of 
knowing if two of the classes that he 
signs up for are being offered at the 
same time (and only at this time). The 
result is, of course, a conflict. Also, 
a student has the right to know which 
instructor is teaching his courses be- 
fore the first day of class. Perhaps a 
student has a definite personality con- 
flict with a certain professor or per- 
haps a student has done poorly in a 



course taught by a certain professor — 
should these students be forced into a 
class which starts off on an unhappy 
note? Personal reasons could also pre- 
vent a student from enjoying a class 
with one professor, while at the same 
time, he may be thoroughly happy with 
another. In any event, a list such as 
the one containing course titles, days, 
times, room and building, and instruc- 
tor that is available at registration 
time should also be available for stu- 
dents' use at pre-registration. Obvious- 
ly such a practice would eliminate 
much of the difficulty that occurs at 
registration. 

Another suggestion for eliminat- 
ing many of the lines that occur would 
be to have more than one registration 
station. This practice would cut the 
waiting time in half. One place which 
contained an outstanding jam-up of 
students was at the business office 
where fees were to be paid. Surely a 
system could be worked out by which 
students could go to one of several 
stations to pay their fees. At 2 p.m. 
on Monday, it was nearly impossible 
to squeeze into the business office, and 
hundreds of students were lined up 
outside the office waiting to get in. 
As one student put it, "I ought to mail 
them my check, and let them wait for 
my money, instead of me waiting to 
give it to them." 

This statement came from a stu- 
dent who was irritated after being 
forced through a series of schedule 
changes and long lines. Nevertheless, 
the statement is food for thought. Many 
schools now do handle the bulk of reg- 
istration formalities through the mail 
during the summer and during semes- 
ter break. In this way students need 
only pick up their schedule during 
registration anil possibly pay their fees 
(although fees are often paid through 
the mail, also). Perhaps a total mail 
system could not work at Clarion, but 
the system does suggest many positive 
ideas that could be considered by Clar- 
ion's administration. 

This semester's registration was 
not a success in the eyes of the typical 
Clarion student. Almost everyone 
agrees that the present system leaves 
much room for improvement. A change 
in the present system would be a pleas- 
ant relief to almost every student, and 
especially to those students whose 
schedules required revisions. Since so 
many students were dissatisfied with 
this year's registration procedures, the 
administration is asked to take a 
thoughtful look at the possibility of re- 
vising this system. In the words of 
one student, "Isn't a registration 
cnange at least worth a try?"

NEW JUDICIAL SYSTEM 



Faculty Senate to Discuss 
Proposal for Student Rights 



By ED WOZNIAK

Letters to The Editor 



— c.w. 



Change is Important 

To the Progress of Clarion 



Change is important in the over- 
all progress of any established insti- 
tution. Without constant changes and 
revisions many institutions become out- 
dated, and when renovation is finally 
attempted, they are so far behind that 
changes become almost impossible. 

Clarion is now in the process of 
feeling the need for change. These 
changes are needed in all areas of our 
academic endeavors. 

One such change has recently 
been made in the social life of our 
school. The women students of Clar- 
ion State College began last semester 
appealing for a change in the sign- 
out procedure. They claimed that the 
present system was infringing upon 
their privacy. They proceeded to go 
through the proper channels to pro- 
cure this modification. As of last 
week, a new sign-out system, was put 
into effect. The Women's Residence 
Board and the various deans involved 
are to be commended for this change. 
The long-term effects will undoubtably 
justify this alteration of the previous 
procedure. 



Another policy that has recently 
been modified here at Clarion is the 
establishment of a new disciplinary 
board that is designed to deal with 
disciplinary cases within the campus. 
Again all those involved are to be com- 
mended for their interest in the pro- 
gress and renovation of Clarion and 
its policies. 

To retain their effectiveness, 
changes must be constantly reviewed 
and revised. This is a necessary 
phase in renovation if progress is to 
continue. The two changes in Clar- 
ion's previous policies are a step in the 
right direction, but they should not be 
allowed to become outdated. When 
modifications in these new policies are 
needed, they should be made. Simply 
because a change is made does not rule 
out the possibility that there is no fur- 
ther room for improvement. For Clar- 
ion to continue to progress, improve- 
ments should be made in such matters 
as educational procedures.

Mistake in Typescript 

Editor, The Call: 

In case I become confused with "the young 
man of Japan who wrote verses tliat no 
one could scan" because, as he is alleged 
to have confessed, "I always try to get as 
many syllables into the last line as I pos- 
sibly can," I should like to point out a mis- 
take in the last line of my "poem" entitled 
"Worse and Hearse." If I made the mistake 
in my typescript, my apologies. The last 
two lines should read: 

"Men die, i.i spite of medico and nurse, 

But should the house a turn for the 
hearse?" 

The inversion in the last line may be clum- 
sy but does scan, whereas the version printed 
in your issue of Jan. 10 neither scans nor 
is it less clumsy, but hideously more 8o. 

May I thank all those members of the 
college, both faculty and students, who gave 
me such a warm welcome back in Decem- 
ber? So many fatted calves were killed that 
I have never felt more delightfully prodigal. 
Yours, etc., 
DAVID CHRISTIE-MURRAY 

There Will Be Tapes 

Editor, The Call: 

The Carlson Library has over 800 phono- 
graph records, which, at present, circulate 
only to the faculty for classroom us*. We 
p'an to tape all of them and make the tapes 
available for distribution in one way or an- 
other to the students; but the taping project 
is quite slow and has only begun this semes- 
ter. 

At present there are no listening facilities 
in Uie library and there will be none until 
the new addition is completed. Two and a 
half years ago there was a phonograph in 
a back room in the library but there is 
little doubt that it could have won a contest 
for the most wretched phonograph on cam- 
pus with little difficulty. Its most striking 
feature was a removable head which dangled 
at the end of the tone arm. Such a phono- 
graph is, of course, especially well suited 
for destroying phonograph records and it was 
removed from the library. 

The records arc net circulated now because 
records are much more fragile than books. 
It is our plan to keep them in good condition 
until they are taped, and it is impossible 
to both circulate records and keep them in 
good condition. (I have observed phonograph 
record collections in many libraries and have 
founi the most popular to always be in al- 
most rr entirely umplayable condition.) 

The records will be kept as masters to 
tape from and the tape.s used in the library 
and circulated, according to our present plan. 
While it is true that more people have phono- 
graphs than tape recorders, ownership of tape 
recorders is increasing and the tapes are 
much mote difficult to ruin than the records. 



If a tape is ruined, a now tape can be 
made much less expensively than a new copy 
of a record can be bought, if it is still in 
print. 

We are aware that none of this is much 
of a consolation to students right now, but 
we must give greater precedence to other 
projects and just do what we can when we 
can with and about the records.

Alumni Comments 

Editor, The Call: 

Today I received the Dec. 13, 1908, issue 
of the Clarion Call from Mr. William A. 
Proudfit, Alumni Affairs Director. I have de- 
voured it from cover to cover. 

I was especially interested in reading Dr. 
Alonzo Myers' article and the reaction from 
students and faculty alike. This has always 
been my philosophy and practice. 

The success of my 51 years as a teacher 
from primary grade through college teach- 
ing can be attributed to the fact that I was 
approachable and students never feared to 
come to me. 

I made appointments with them at their 
convenience to come to me on matters of 
counseling on all problems such as discipline, 
makeup work, or giving them advice on 
problems they brought me on affairs outside 
the classroom. 

I do hope that friendship and helpfulness 
may be established through proper communi- 
cation between faculty and students as well 
as between students and the administration. 

You are doing a good work through the 
medium of the Clarion Call. Congratulations 
Keep up the good work. You must have 
a loyal and noble student body since I read 
of no strikes, sit-ins, or seizure of buildings 
at dear old Clarion. 

I pass this little poem on to you for what 
it's worth. I clipped it from the Norfolk 
paper. Its author is Larry Hirsch. 

SUMMA CUM LOW 

Since several colleges permit 
Their students to march in and sit

Students of Clarion State College who have 
been accused of violating a regulation of 
the college may soon find themselves sub- 
ject to a new judicial system. This new 
system, part of "A Paper on Proposed Ac- 
ademic Freedom for Students at Clarion 
State College," prepared by the Office of 
the Dean of Student Affairs, is now being 
considered by a committee of the Faculty 
Senate headed by Dr. John Mellon, dean of 
liberal arts. The report of the committee, 
along with a list of proposed changes for 
the new judicial system will be presented 
to the Faculty Senate at the meeting sche- 
duled for Monday. 

Under the new judicial system, students 
who have been accused of violating a col- 
lege regulation "... shall have the right 
to appear before one or more members of a 
duly constituted judicial body." The judicial 
body may be a living unit judiciary (Set 
up by a fraternity, sorority or residence 
hall or a governing group judiciary created 
by Men's Inter-Hall council, Interfraternity 
Council, or Day Student's Council. 

Student Faculty Judiciary 

Also provided for under the new system 
is a College Student Judiciary, composed of 
students selected by procedures contained 
in the Constitution of the Student Senate, 
and a Student-Faculty Judiciary composed of 
seven faculty members and four students. No 
explanation was given in the document or 
bv the office of the dean of students for the 
unequal representation of students on the 
Student-Faculty Judiciary. This judiciary is 
the highest in the system with appellate juris- 
diction over all of the others. For this rea- 
son perhaps the Faculty Senate will consi- 
der revision of the unequal representation. 

A student who is not satisifed with a de- 
cision haride'd down by a lower judicial body 
may appeal the decision to a higher body. 
The line of progression is: Living Unit Jud- 
iciaries with only original jurisdicton, Gov- 
erning Group Judiciaries to which cases of 
the Living Unit Judiciaries may be referred, 
College Student Judiciary with appellate jur- 
isdiction over the former two, and finally 
the Student-Faculty Judiciary with appellate 
jurisdiction over all of the others. AU de- 
cisions of the Student-Faculty Judiciary are 
final unless appealed to the president of the 
college. 



Due Process Clause 

Also included in the document is a due 
process clause. Provided for in this sec- 
tion are the rights of the accused beiore and 
during the ajudication of his case. 

For example, the student, after being 
notified that he is accused of a violation, 
must be advised of the courses of action that 
he may take. He must also be notified 72 
hours in advance of his hearing, is entitled 
to appear in his defense and call witnesses in 
his defense, and is entitled to counsel of his 
own choice. The student is also entitled to re- 
fuse to answer questions, and to face his ac- 
cuser. And finally, the accused is entitled 
"... to an expeditious hearing of his case." 

The judicial process proposed for Clarion 
State College is for the most part quite 
fair. It is a good basis to begin building 
upon to establish a more comprehensive 
code. For example, nowhere in the docu- 
ment is there provision for student rights 
concerning search of his private premises or 
personal effects. Undoubtedly, other flaws 
will be found that will require revision. Hope- 
fully the committee of the Faculty-Senate re- 
sponsible for the final recommendation and 
our Student Senate will do the job. 

Only Article 4 to Be 
Considered 

Finally, the document from which the jud- 
icial system was taken, "A Paper on Pro- 
posed Academic Freedom for Students at 
Clarion State College," should be considered 
by the Faculty Senate and the Student Sen- 
ate. In this very comprehensive but not per- 
fect document are contained such important 
items as academic rights and responsibil- 
ities of students, professional rights and re- 
sponsibilities- of facirity,- provisions for re- 
cord keeping, student government, conduct 
regulations and regulations concerning stu- 
dent publications. 

For some unnamed reason, only part of 
this document, Article 4, on judicial process 
is being considered. Perhaps there is good 
reason for this or perhaps not. But in any 
event, a growing institution such as Cla- 
rion State where millions of dollars are being 
spent for educational facilities should have a 
comprehensive code of conduct for students, 
faculty, and administration. 



Judicial Process Being Considered 
By Committee of Faculty Senate 



Of two papers on proposed academic free- 
dom submitted to the Faculty Senate of Cla- 
rion State College, only one section of one 
document is currently under review. Article 
4 of "A Paper on Proposed Academic Free- 
dom for Students at Clarion State College," 
concerning judicial process is at this writing 
being reviewed by a committee of the Faculty 
Senate. The committee headed by Dr. John 
Mellon, dean of liberal arts, will submit a 
report to the Senate along with a list of pro- 
posed changes. 

The six remaining articles of the paper 
are not being reviewed. These articles in- 
clude provisions for academic rights and re- 
sponsibilities, professional rights of the fa- 
culty, student records, student government, 
student conduct and student publications. 



"A Paper on Proposed Academic Freedom 
for Students at Clarion State College" is bas- 
ed on a similar paper adopted by Michigan 
State University. Clarion's version was com- 
piled by the office of the Dean of Students 
during the 1967-68 academic year and sub- 
mitted to the Faculty Senate last September. • 

Another paper, published in the June 1938 
issue of the American Association of Univer- 
sity Professors Bulletin was also submitted 
to the Senate. This document has been dis- 
carded in favor of Article 4 of the Clarion 
paper. 



Sherry Lehman, junior majoring in French 
and art (elementary education), has returned 
to Clarion this semester after studying in 
France the first semester.

68 Pet of CSC Frosh Average 
B or Better in High School 



Clairion students are high achieving and 
high aspiring youth from relatively low in- 
come families compared to other state col- 
leges and universities of the nation, a recent 
study by the Office of Research of the Am- 
erican Council on Education reveals. 

Most entering freshmen selected Clarion 
for its academic recognition and low cost, 
the study indicated. Socially, Clarion students 
are "average American college youth." 

These facts were brought out following an 
analysis at the council's report by Dr. John 
McLain, Director of the center for Education- 
al Research and area curriculum center. 

The analysis of freshmen entering college 
throughout the nation indicated that students 
at Clarion ranked higher in high school stand- 
ing and achieved higher grades than the av- 
erage American college freshman. 

The report showed that 68 percent of the 
Clarion freshmen had a B or beUer average 
in high school compared to 56 percent na- 
tionally. It also showed that 67 percent of 
Clarion's students ranked in the upper 25 
percent of their high school class compared 
to 56 percent nationally. 

In response to a question asking what aca- 
demic degree they expected to attain before 
discontinuing their formal education, 56 per- 
cent of Clarion's freshmen expected to obtain 
a master's degree compared to 40 percent 
of the entering freshmen throughout the coun- 
try. 

Nearly half of Clarion's student (48 per- 
cent) indicated the major influence in choos- 
ing Clarion was its academic reputation. This 
compared to a national 42 percent. Many 
others (41 percent) selected Clarion due to 
the low cost of attending. Nationally, 31 per- 
cent of the students had indicated this as 
a major influence. 

Clarion students are more concerned about 
how their education is going to be financed 
than the average student entering college. 
Nearly 70 percent of Clarion's students in- 
dicated "some coneern" about how their ed- 
ucation would be financed compared to 61 
percent nationally. This concern is thought 
to be related to the family income and how 
the student expects to finance his education. 



The "average" Clarion student is from a 
home in a salary bracket of $6,000 to $8,000 
compared to the national average of $10,000 
to $15,000. Over half of 'clarion's students 
(52 percent) hope to finance their education 
through scholarship or other grants compared 
to only 19 percent nationally. Nearly half 
of the students, nationally, (48 percent) ex- 
pect to receive parental or family aid com- 
pared to 25 percent at Clarion. 

In terms of what they believe, what they 
have done, and what they expect to do Cla- 
rion students appear to be "average Ameri- 
can students" other aspects of the study in- 
dicated. 

Nearly all of Clarion's students (90 per- 
cent), for example, believe the students 
should help design the curriculum, as do 
90 percent of the students nationwide. Slight- 
ly over half of the students at Clarion, and 
nationally, believe the colleges arc too lax 
on protesters. 

Clarion students were about the same as 
the national averages in such beliefs as all 
science findings should be published (54 per- 
cent), an individual cannot change society 
(35 percent), faculty pay should be based 
on student evaluation (63 percent), the col- 
lege should regulate student publications (60 
percent), and marijuana, 13 percent thought, 
should be legalized. (Percentages are nation- 
al.) 

Slightly fewer Clarion students had partici- 
pated in demonstrations but more had argued 
with their teachers. Fewer aarion freshmen 
smoked (eight percent compared to 12 per- 
cent nationally) and fewer had drunk beer 
(38 percent compared to 48 percent) when 
they entered college, but more had taken 
tranquilizers (11 percent compared to eight 
percent). 

More of Clarion's students were varsity 
lettermen and belonged to a scholastic honor 
society but fewer had achieved high ratings 
in music or speech contests. 

Clarion students are about like other college 
students in terms of how many expect to 
join a social sorority or fraternity, to partici- 
pate in a demonstration, or to get married 
while in college or soon after graduation. 



Archaeology Program Termed 
'Onlv One of its Kind' 



A student science program in field ar- 
chaeology to be held at Clarion State Co\- 
lege June 23-August 2 has the distinction 
of being the only one of its kind in the 
United States, according to iiiformation re- 
cently released by the National Science 
Foundation which has provided a grant for 
the project. 

"While there are many student science 
programs in various fields there is only one 
in archaeology and we are expecting a flurry 
of applications," said Dr. Gustav A. Kon- 
itzky, professor of anthropology and director 
of archaeological field programs at Clarion. 

"In addition to the student science pro- 
gram which will be limited to 35 partici- 
pants from throughout the United States, 
we are also running our sixth annual ar- 
chaeological field school for college under- 
graduates," he said. 



Dr. Konitzky stated that no decision had 
been made as to prehistoric sites to be in- 
vestigated in the summer of 1969. At least 
one crew will return to the Ziegler site 
near Tidioute to complete an excavation 
started in 1967 and continued in 1968.

In Review — 'The Boston St rangier 



By JOHN MATVIKO 

Between 1962 and 1964 Albert DcSalvo al- 
legedly killed 13 Boston area women. The 
public, with its fascination for mass vio- 
lence, wanted to know more about the mur- 
derer. This quest was at least partly real- 
ized with the publication of "The Boston 
Strangler" by Gerald Frank. Based on this 
book, Richard Fleischer has brought the 
story of Albert DeSalvo to the screen. 

The first half of the movie deals with the 
murders and their affects upon the women 
of the city. In its documentary style, it is 
at best a fairly accurate depiction of the 
fear present throughout the city. At its worst 
it is no more than a sensational account of 
the murders. 

The second half of the movie examines the 
character of the schizophrenic murderer as 
played by Tony Curtis. Curtis, whose act- 
ing career has consisted almost entirely of 
silly sex comedies, does a credible job as 
DeSalvo. Henry Fonda, as the detective in- 
vestigating the killings, also gives a good 
performance. But as the emphasis switches 
to the character of DcSalvo, the plot be- 
comes tedious. The psychoanalysis of the 
strangler is just too long to hold one's at- 
tention. 

To its credit, the movie does successfully 
use some of the newer cmematic techniques

Continuing until Tuesday at the Garby 
is Tony Curtis as "The Boston Strangler." 
This will be followed Wednesday by Otto

cannot compensate for the sensationalism of 
the first half and the heaviness of the se- 
cond half.

Tonight at 7:30 in Peirce Auditorium, the 
weekly film seminar will present Victoria 
de Sica's "The Bicycle Thief." de Sica, an 
important director in the neorealist move- 
ment, used non-professionals to play their 
counterparts in the film. The movie deals 
with the conditions in postwar Italy and its 
effect upon a family whose only future rests 
with tl^e return of a stolen bicycle. A dis- 
cussion of the film will follow its presen- 
tation.

Honors Event 

The second annual Honors Convocation of 
Clarion State College will be held at 10 a.m , 
Tuesday, March 25. Following the academic 
processional, the major address will be given 
by Dr. David W. D. Dickson, who is well- 
versed in inter-city education and disadvan- 
taged nt?groes. 

Dr. Dickson is prqvost and vice president 
for academic affairs at Federal City College, 
the first land grant college in Washington 
D.C.; the college, in 1968, was introduced 
as a new venture in inter-city education. 

The first Honors Convocation was inaugtir- 
ated during the 1968 Centennial Year with 
the idea of its becoming a permanent part 
of Clarion campus tradition. The fundamental 
purpose of the convocation is to offer recog- 
nition to those students who have achieved 
a quality point average of 3.4 out of a possi- 
ble 4.0. s 

Graduating seniors arc granted honors ac- 
cording to the following quality point aver- 
ages through at least seven full semesters 
of work: Cum Laude, 3.4-3.59; Magna Cum 
Laude, 3.6-3.79; Summa Cum Laude, 3.8 or 
higher. More than 100 students are to be 
thus honored this year. Following the pro- 
gram, a luncheon for the honored students 
will be held in the Chandler dining hall. 

All students are invited to attend the con- 
vocation and hear the guest speaker. Free 
tickets will be available for students who 
wish to be present so that the size of the 
audience can be estimated. 



Plans were made for election of permanent 
officers at an organizational meeting of the 
local council of the International Reading 
Association held Jan. 15 at Clarion. 

Mrs. Mary Peterson, Franklin Area Schools 
reading instructor, was chosen temporary 
chairman of the group. Election will be held 
at a meeting April 12 at Peirce Science Cen- 
ter. 

Appointed to the nominating committee 
were Sister M. Celeste, North Clarion 
Schools; Mrs. Helen Barnette, Oil aty Area 
Schools, and Dr. Betty Slater, Clarion State 
College.

Things seemed to shape up for Venango in 
the second half with Casey, Vano and Pfeiffer 
finding their range on shooting and reviving 
the team. The spirit was tremendous and the 
rest of the team did their part to boost tlie 
score, but the effort was futile and the tough 
Warren team rode the first half advantage. 

In their second meeting of the season with 
Edinboro Shenango Campus of FarreU, Penn- 
sylvania, the Venango Campus Vulcans were 
overthrown by a score of 103 to 74, on Jan. 8. 

In spite of the final score, most of the fans 
agreed that this game was the best game of 
the season so far.

Slippery Rock Game 

Losing an eight-point lead early in the 
second half, Clarion State cagers bowed to 
a determined Slippery Rock quintet, 65-62, 
Monday, Jan. 27, in Tippin Gymnasium. 

The Rockets outgunned the Golden Eagles 
from the field, although they converted only 
five charity tosses to 16 for the hosts. Coach 
Henry Baierl's squad also grabbed most of 
the rebounds in the second half as they over- 
came Clarion's 34-26 halftime margin to 
maintain an edge for the rest of the game. 

Tied for top scoring honors were Dennis 
Luce and Buddy Martin, with 17 apiece. Bob 
Wiegand was high marksman for the Rockets 
with 16. 

Slippery Rock freshmen won the prelim- 
inary, 90-87, in overtime.

[ '' Lock Haven Game 

Clarion's cagers made a valiant attempt 
to overcome an 11-point deficit built up short- 
ly after halftime, but Lock Haven held an 
edge to defeat the Golden Eagles, 61-60, last 
Tuesday night at Tippin Gymnasium. 

Play was close with the halftime score 
25-23 in favor of the visitors, but the Bald 
Eagles of Lock Haven quickly widened the 
gap to as much as 13 points before Coach 
John Joy ordered a full-court press, which 
the Golden Eagle team successfully carried 
out in fine defensive style. 

The Clarion team tied the game, but could 
not score in the final seconds giving Lock 
Haven the one-point edge. 

Captain Joe Chalmers paced Clarion with 
13 points, while George Lawry scored 12 and 
Dennis Luce 10. Ed Wright dumped in 19 for 
Lock Haven. 

The Clarion freshman team trounced Ven- 
ango Campus 87-45 in the preliminary, with 
Carl Jefferis, a strong varsity prospect, set- 
ting a blistering pace with 27 points. 

Coach Joy's squad, with a 5-10 record, will 
seek to avenge an earlier 62-47 loss to Cali- 
fornia State tomorrow night in Tippin Gym-

JOE PODOLAK 

Joe Podolak is a 5', 10", 160-pound jun- 
ior from Monaca High School, where he 
played varsity basketball for three years. 

He is a comprehensive science major in 
the secondary education curriculum; upon 
graduation, Joe plans to teach junior high 
school science. His other ambition, like many 
athletes, is to coach his own team. 

Although Joe's specialty is basketball, he 
enjoys other sports; he is aKso interested 
in collecting "good records." 

Joe's shooting average is not high, but a 
high average is not always an indication of 
a person's true value to his team. He sees 
limited action, for his position is back-up 
man for Regis Ruane and Joe Chalmers. In 
action, Joe performs his job with a quiet 
aggressiveness and determination. 

Judo Club Shows 
Mat Techniques 

On Jan. 28 at Kittanning Senior High 
School, the CSC Hun Judo Club exhibited 
the sport of Judo to the student body. Par- 
ticipating were Diane Best, green belt; San- 
dy Maskas, third brown belt; Dr. Walter Lock- 
hart of the philosophy department, third 
brown belt and co-advisor of the Judo Club; 
Tom Komis, captain of the club; Larry Co- 
hen, green belt; and Joe Kenney, purple 
belt. 

Coach P-Jobb explained, in short, the his- 
tory of Judo and its origin in Japan. The 
students individually demonstrated the fa- 
cets of the build-up exercises, muscle con- 
trols, and balance techniques. Mr. P-Jobb 
impressed upon the student the great im- 
portance of the falling techniques which the 
Judo student must master. The students from 
the CSC Club demonstrated a variety of 
these techniques. 

During the exhibition, the students watched 
a demonstration of one of the most excit- 
ing parts of Judo, the throwing techniques. 
The three pairs of Judo Club students had 
given at least a visual taste of what it 
means to be thrown over one's head. Mat 
techniques: pin downs and chokes were also 
demonstrated. 

The technique of self-defense was a part 
of the exhibition. Here especially the female 
members of the judo team scored well. 

The assembly was challenged to send out 
volunteers who wished to experience what 
it means to be swept off their feet and immo- 
bilized in a split second. Many students 
readily accepted this challenge and soon they 
had their curiosity satisfied. To everyone's 
surprise the high school's Swiss exchange 
student, a young man, threw with a major 
hip throw, one of the exhibition students 
from CSC. It was discovered that this ex- 
change student had studied Judo for four 
years in Europe, and is the holder of a green 
belt. 

The CSC Hun Judo Club is going to hold 
its testing period in the later part of Feb- 
ruary for belt promotions. 

Judo students, who because of conflicting 
schedules will not be able to attend train- 
ing in the spring semester must return their 
Judo gi's to the Judo Club. Bring or send 
you gi with your name to the training cen- 
ter or to Mr. P-Jobb's office. 

AAll Names Coach 
Joy as Delegate 

Clarion's head basketball coach, John Joy, 
has been named to the 19C9 Men's Ama- 
teur Athletic Union Basketball Committee 
with full voice and vote. 

In his ninth year as mentor of the Gol- 
den Eagle cagers, one of Coach Joy's first 
as-signments as a committee member of the 
committee will be to help select 23 members 
to represent the AAU on the United States 
Olympic Basketball Committee. 

Coach Joy's status is that of delegate- 
at-large among the 87 presently eligible vot- 
ing basketball members of the association.

Clarion Will Host 
State College Meet 

Plans are underway for the 25th Annual 
State College Wrestling Tournament to be 
hosted by Clarion State College Feb. 28-March 
1 in their new Tippin Gymnasium. 

Area mat fans will be able to gain a new 
perspective on the strengths of the squads

as the 12 participating teams come together 
for the first time at Clarion. Seating will 
be plentiful with the 4,000 capacity of the 
new facility. 

Top teams to watch in the two-day tourney 
will be East Stroudsburg, I^ock Haven, 
Bloomsburg and Clarion, who finished in that 
order last year at East Stroudsburg. 

Individual participants will include three 
of the five State College Conference winners 
who placed in the National University Divi- 
sion last year. 

They are Kenny Melchior, Lock Haven, 
first-place winner at 115 pounds; Ron Russo, 
Bloomsburg, sixth-place winner at 137 
pounds; and Richard Schumaker, East 
Stroudsburg, fifth-place winner at heavy- 
weight.

finals will begin at 1 p.m. Saturday, March 
1. Final consolations will be at 7 p.m. and 
the finals at 8 p.m. 



CSC Wrestlers Lose to Bloomsburg 30-7 
In First Defeat in a Successful Season 



Clarion State College grapplers lost their 
first match of the season on Jan. 20, bow- 
ing to a strong Bloomsburg State squad, 30-7, 
on the home mats at Tippin Gymnasium. 

The match was the first dual of the sea- 
son for the Golden Eagles, a December 17 
tilt at Mansfield having been cancelled due 
to the flu epidemic. 

Coach Bubb's matmen swept two early 
season quadrangulars, allowing the six op- 
ponents to score only ten points to their 240. 
They fared less well in a Jan. 11 quad at 
Cleveland State, placing third with 75 points. 

Clarion's only win came With Jack Rie- 
gel decisioning Christina in the 191-pound 
cla«s. 

Highlighting the match was Clarion's Don 
Knisely holding Russo to a 1-1 draw in 
the 137-pound category. Russo was sixth in 
the nation last year, as Pennsylvania State 
College Conference champion, second in the 
NAIA, and sixth in the NCAA University 
Division. 

The Clarion freshmen exactly reversed the 
score by copping a 30-7 decision in the pre- 
liminaries. 

Following are the summaries, with Cla- 
rion wrestlers listed first:

CSC Sharpshooters Lose Two, 
Win a Match by 2 Point Margin 



Golden Eagle sharpshooters dropped two 
jmatches over the weekend, losing by 1296- 
1271 to first-place Allegheny at Meadville, 
Friday night and bowing decisively to the 
University of Pittsburgh, 1314-1286, Saturday 
at Tippin Gymnasium. 

Allegheny, Pitt and Clarion State are now 
one, two and three, respectively, in the nine 
college Western Pennsylvania Intercollegi- 
ate Rifle League following the weekend 
clashes. 

It was the second loss of the season to 
the tough Allegheny aggregation, who out- 
gunned the Obermen at Clarion in the sea- 
son opener. 

Allegheny's Fields was top gun for the 
hosts in Friday's encounter with 267. Jim 
Daley paced the Eagles with 265. 

Pitt's Taucher scored 270 to lead the Pan- 
ther marksmen. Dailey scored high for Cla- 
rion with 266.

On Jan. 14 in the sixth match of the sea- 
son, Galen Ober's rifle team edged Indiana 
University of Pennsylvania, 1623-1261, Fri- 
day night on the Big Indians' home range for 
the only victory in a discouraging week of 
athletic events for Golden Eagle teams. 

The Clarion State sharpshooters, now 5-1 
for the season, barely squeaked past when 
the Indians' Stoner faltered and the superior 
marksmanship of Doverspike failed to make 
up the'diflference. 

Hagen Hileman was top firer for the Eag- 
les with a 258, followed by Jim Dailey with 
256. 

In two matches not on the original sche- 
dule, the Golden Eagle rifles traveled to St. 
Francis on Jan. 29 and hosted a tough Univer- 
sity of Pittsburgh squad Feb. 1. 

Possibly the season's biggest test was 
a return match at Allegheny Jan. 31. The 
Gators handed the Eagles their only de- 
feat in the season opener.

equal to the best. 

A Smallish Audience 
Appreciates the Recital 

By ELIZABETH CURLEY 

At first it looked as though the first fa- 
culty recital of the semester would be given 
for about 30 people, but as it got closer 
to 8, the Chapel began to fill. Not only college 
students were there, but members of the 
faculty and administration, people from town, 
and some young children. 

The recital opened with Handel's Sonata 
in D Major, and the audience sat spellbound 
as the four movements ran the gamut of 
emotion, from the extremely lively and gay 
to the almost funereal. 

Then Hindemith's Sonata in E was per- 
formed. In parts, the piano and violin gave 
the suggestion of fighting one another, but 
the overall effect was fascinating and pleas- 
ing. However, this number was slightly out 
of place with the classical pieces. 

Beethoven's Sonata in F Major, Opus 24 
(Spring) was perhaps the most familiar piece 
to many in tlie audience. It was beautifully 
executed. It was especially enjoyable in the 
third movement, when the violin played a 
close mimic to the piano. 

Following a brief intermission. Franck's 
Sonata was performed. It provided a fitting 
and beautiful climax to the evening. 

After the program, such comments were 
heard as "I came, but I dicbi't think I'd 
enjoy it like I did," and "I think it was 
one of the best we have had all year."

Though registration was not totally

CLARION STATE COLLEGE — CLARION, PENNSYLVANIA 



Friday, February 14, 1969 




PICTURED ABOVE are Joseph Speuce, associate professor and head of 
the Art Department, Jaime Carrero, Mrs. Gemmell, and President Gem- 
mell. Mr. Carrero visited Clarion on Wednesday evening and lectured to 
student and faculty members. 



Jaime Carrero Describes Art 
As 'Personal'; 'Mood' Plays 
Important Role in Art, Poetry 



By SHERRY LEHMAN 

On Wednesday night, the Distinguished 
Scholars Program brought Jaime Carrero to 
Clarion's Chapel for a lecture on "General 
Concepts of Painting." 

Mr. Carrero, an internationally recognized 
artist, began his lecture with a definition 
of his own artistic philosophy. He said that 
in his paintings, he attempts to "translate 
experience to art." He spoke lengthily on 
the value of "Art as being personal"; he 
defined the word "personal," in relation to 
creation, as "the time when you have some- 
thing to say that is beginning to be yourself." 

The artist read a selection of his poems 
which stressed rhythm and the suggestion 
of mood rather than the import of the words 
themselves; then he' began a series of slides 
of his works which he punctuated with the 
history of each work and a rather vague 
personal interpretation of the meaning of the 
work. Mr. Carrcro's paintings are largely 
of the abstract cxpressionistic genre. He told 
the audience that, rather than the subject 
matter of his paintings, he considered color 
and shape, or the mood created, to play 
the most important roles, as in his afore- 
mentioned poetry. 



Mr. Carrero at one point decided to drop 
the idea of artistic composition and took to 
what one of his friends called "destroying 
canvas." He slashed the canvases and used 
hand-stitching as an artistic technique and 
media. Flat colors and an "accidental ba- 
lance" typified much of the artist's works. 

As an art student at Clarion, I was rather 
interested in what Mr. Carrero might have 
had to say. But at the close of the lecture 
I was quite disappointed, not only because 
I feel Mr. Carrero is unqualified as a lecturer 
(he began irrelevant anecdotes which trailed 
off to a whisper, then res-umed his topic, 
preceded by an uncertain "Anyway..."), but 
also because, at the end of the lecture, during 
the question-and-answer period, Mr. Carrero 
repeatedly evaded answering qtv^tions on the 
meaning of his works by slating "It is per- 
sonal." One member of the Art Department 
here at Clarion posed an interesting question: 
"Is it possible for art to become too per- 
sonal?" Mr. Carrero defended his work by 
replying that since he is an artist for whom 
what is "personal becomes reality," his art 
cannot, therefore, ever be too personal, but 
I don't think the audience found tliis answer 
to be very convincing. 



OPINION POLL 



Does Unity Exist Between Students? 
Students Unite in Negative Response 



By ROSEMARY SLEBODNIK 

Many students complain of the lack of com- 
munication between students and faculty, fa- 
culty and administration, and administration 
and students. Though these complaints may 
be legitimate, students should first examine 
the communication among the students them- 
selves. 

Students questioned this week were asked 
to discuss their feelings on the student body 
as a unit, and whether or not campus unity, 
in the form of group effort by classes and 
organizations, was evident at Clarion State 
College. 

Ellen Blough: "Is there unity on this cam- 
pus? Absolutely not. Nobody will work to- 
getlier. For example, class meetings — the jun- 
ior class had a meeting to choose our Miss 
CSC candidate— only 15 members besides the 
president showed up. 

"Nobody on this campus will bind together. 
They all have a lot of complaints, but they 
don't do anything about tliem. This is such 
a small school, things shouldn't be this way. 
But the only thing anyone is concerned about 
is grades. They use grades as an excuse. 

"T h e r e's no school spirit— that's why 
there's no unity. I don't think our campus 
is any worse than any other; but the main 
problem is that nobody wants to do anything 
about anything." 

Roland Sparrow: "No, because there's no 
school spirit. Everybody is afraid to cheer 
because they don't know the guy in front 
of them, and they're afraid he might think 
they're foolish. 

"Fraternities don't have brotherly love 
among the different fraternities— this seems 
to take away from any unity. There is unity 
within the groups, but no unity as a whole. 
Different groups won't tolerate each other. 
This causes conflict cmong the students. A 
person isn't free to do what he wants to do. 
He has to do things to satisfy the groups, or 
he won't be accepted." 

Bob Ament: "1 think there is unity among 
the Greeks. It seems the rest of the campus 
lacks enthusiasm as far as school activities 
are concerned — especially sports events. I'd 
like to see a better turnout by the non- 
Greeks. I think the campus would have a 
lot more imity if we could get both factions 
of the campus actively involved." 



Terry Hostetler: "Everybody has their 
own whims and desires— nobody sticks toge- 
ther on anything. People rre interested more 
in themselves than the college as a whole. 
The students are too apathetic and just don't 
giv9 a damn about anything that does not 
immediately concern them." 

Jeff Milliron: "As far as education goes, 
there is unity. We are all here, and partici- 
pating in the primary function of this insti- 
tution—education. But I think students are 
mainly indifferent to the problems of the 
campus. If we all got together, we could 
get rid of certain administrators. (Remember 
the Servomation Mathins scandal that very 
few students heard about? ) A corrupt admin- 
istration works through the ignorance of the 
students— eliminate the ignorance and dim- 
inish the corruption." 

Elmer Schuetz: "No, I don't see unity 
here. You go into the union— you^'see different 
fraternities and different groups sitting in 
different sections— no one sits together, they 
discriminate against each other 

"As far as supporting activities— if it's cul- 
tural, the students just don't go. Even ath- 
letic events — they came to the football gatnes 
because we were winning. They stopped sup- 
porting the basketball team because they 
were losing— they need support too. To me, as 
a football player, it means a lot to have 
somebody out Uiere to cheer us on — even 
if we're losing." 

Shelly Riekens: "'Oie students only show 
any unity when they have to. The only time 
they stick together is when it really concerns 
them all— such as the Jorry Muzyka case. 
Th^ all got together and signed the peti- 
tions. Otherwise, they just live in their own 
litUe worlds." 

It is evident from the above comments 
that students agree on the subject of little 
unity within the student body. Perhaps this 
can be attributed to the "apathy" label at- 
tached to much of the student participation 
in school activities. We have been able to 
show group effort in the past, in the form 
of petitions, pep rallies, and even protests; 
but even these intermittent expressions of 
unity are being seen less frequently. Perhaps 
it's time we woke up, came out of our "own 
litUe worlds." and found out the name of 
"the guy sitting in front of us." 



Senate Approves $3,000 Allocation 
For Spring Concert; Seven Students 
ShoM Interest, Reveal Disappointments 



By DICK MEARS 

The Student Senate, in their .egular meet- 
ing of Feb. 12, approved a request from 
the Social Committee to allocate $3,000 for 
Spring Weekend. This m» ney will be used 
to host Martha and the Vandellas, who will 
perform in concert during the Spring Week- 
end. This concert will be free to Clarion's 
students. This additional request from the So- 
cial Committee was needed to help defray 
the $3,000 loss as a result of the lack of 
attendance at The Mitch Ryder Concert. 

The Senate was glad to host seven student 
visitors to the weekly meeting. They were: 
Mary Ellen Milowichi, Karen Fierst, Sharon 
Fierst, Carol Gazotto, Jan Pagliari, Diane 
Knighton and Gary Grubich. Karen Fierst 
acted as spokesman for the group. She stated 
their interest in attending a Senate meeting 
to see how the meetings were conducted and 
what was done in tlie interests of the students. 

Karen also stated that she and other stu- 
dents were disappointed in the Senate as a 
representative body for tlie students. Sen. 
Don Kress informed her tVat lack of interest 
by students in the activities of the Student 
Senate is responsible for this sentiment. If 
more students attended Senate meetings and 
actively participated in student affairs, the 
Senate could operate that much more effi- 
ciently and effectively. 

Karen spoke for many students disappoint- 
ed in the new procedures used by the dining 
hall. She and others feel that now, since 
the dining haU has an accurate account of 
how many meals a student eats per month, 
the student should not have to pay for meals 
he does not eat. 



Spring Enrollment 
Decreases by 32 

Two thousand eight hundred and eighty 
full-time undergraduates are enrolled at Cla- 
rion for the spring semester. Of this 2,880, 
1,432 are men, and 1,448 are women. 

This is a decrease of approximately 32 
students from the fall semester according 
,to figures compiled by Mis. Phyllis Elder, 
college registrar. Foi this semester, there 
are 17 full-time graduate students enrolled 
at Clarion; of these six are men, and 11 
are women. The total number of undergrad- 
uate part-time students enrolled for the 
spring semester is 147, while there are 245 
part-time graduate students enrolled. 

At the Venango Campus tliis semester, 
there are 151 men and 162 women enrolled 
as full-time undergraduate students. This is 
an increase of 20 students. Fifty-five students 
are enrolled as part-time undergraduates with 
a total of three part-time graduate students. 

Michalski to Conduct 
Band Festival, Saturday 

Stanley F. Michalski, Jr., director of bands 
and professor of music at Qarion, wUl serve 
as guest conductor of the Dauphin (bounty 
Band Festival on Saturday. The festival band 
numbering 151 students representing 14 high 
schools in Dauphin (bounty, will be rehearsed 
and conduciea m concert at the Central Dau- 
phin High School at 8 p.m. 



Karen was directed to .see Dean Curtis, 
chairman of the food and dining committee 
from the Senate concerning this matter. 

Tom Paulino, president of Senate, expres- 
sed his wish to have more student partici- 
pation in the way of attendance to Senate 
meetings. The Student Senate represents the 
student body, but the student body must re- 
present the senate. 

The seven students who went to the meet- 
ing were commended for their active show 
of interest and were invited to future meet- 
ings. 

The meeting was recessed at 8:15 p.m. 

Disciplinary Board 
Plans Open Meetings 

The faculty-student committee headed by 
Dr. George Harmon, professor of biology, 
which was recently appointed to study pro- 
cedures for disciplinary actions will have op- 
en meetings after they o>-gamze and formu- 
late a program of study. 

The committee plans to utilize suggestions 
from many sources. One consultant. Dr. Wal- 
lace Brewster, a member of the social science 
department and special assistant to the pre- 
sident, is an expert in corporate law. Cla- 
rion's administrative committee which stu- 
dies judicial procedures and Dr. Elliott, dean 
of .student affairs, will also advise. 

The new committee welcomes and asks 
for suggestions from students and faculty. 
These may be submitted in written form 
to Dr. Harmon, who believes that students 
should play the major role in formulating 
procedures that affect students. He would 
like to see student courts for women's and 
men's residence halls, fraternities and soror- 
ities, and for the student body as a whole. 

The initial role in forming this court sys- 
tem, he believes, is the role of students and 
should not be imposed iy the faculty. In 
years past there was a faculty-student dis- 
ciplinary committee but its success was ques- 
tionable, and it became inactive. Last year 
separate committees were appointed for each 
problem that arose. 

Moses Chosen 
AsFina IJudge 

Dr. Elbert R. Moses, Jr., chairman of the 
speech department, is one of three educators 
selected this year by the Daughters of the 
American Revolution to judge their annual 
essay contest for college majors in American 
History. 

Dr. Moses will collaborate with Dr. Walter 
C. Langsam, president of the University of 
Cincinnati, and Robert Morris, president of 
the University of Piano, Piano, Texas, in 
selecting a national winner for the scholarship 
worth $8,000, or $2,000 annually. 

The three will serve as final judges in 
naming a winner from entries already screen- 
ed at state level on a subject pertaining 
to the students' reasons for wanting to spe- 
cialize in American History. 

Entrants are required to have the equival- 
ent of a minor in American History or better. 
Approximately 40 states are expected to par- 
ticipate in the competition.

John Thompson Lectures Wednesday; 
Speaks of Unrest in Soviet Union 



By CAROLYN WELESKO 

John B. Thompson, United States foreign 
service officer who is presently serving in 
the Soviet Union Affairs divison of the De- 
partment of State's Bureau of European Af- 
fairs, visited Clarion on Wednesday and 
Thursday as a guest lecturer. 

On Wednesday evening Mr. Thompson dis- 
cussed the topic "Recent Developments in 
the Soviet Union." He began his talk with 
a brief outline of unrest that exists in the 
Soviet Union, especially among young people. 
One particularly interesting trouble spot in 
Russia centers around censorship. The pro- 
blem is based on a system which requires 
that all Soviet writers belong to an organiza- 
tion called the "Union of Soviet Writers." 
Only people who are considered "safe" can 
belong to this union, and all other writers 
are not permitted to publish any form of 
literature. Protestors, or those that publish 
their thoughts illegally, are severely pun- 
ished; Mr. Thompson, for example, cited sev- 
eral examples where young people were im- 
prisoned for five to seven years. 

Mr. Thompsfm pointed out the fact that 



large segements of the Soviet population are 
not protesting — in fact, only a small portion 
of the population is in favor of more liberal- 
ization in the Soviet Union. But Soviet 
leaders are worried because the protestors 
are among the "best" of Soviet citizens. Many 
of Russia's intellectuals, writers, and, sci- 
entists are in favor of more individual rights 
for the people, and many are not afraid 
to express their viewpoints regardless of the 
effects that such actions may personally have 
on them. 

Mr. Thompson also briefly discussed de- 
Stalinization and told about unrestful situa- 
tions in Ukraine — both of which were highly 
interesting to the students and faculty mem- 
bers that attended. 

A brief question session fcrilowed Mr. 
Thompson's lecture, which was highlighted 
by several additional remarks by Dr. Kathryn 
Kochno, associate professor of psychology. 

Mr. Thompson also lectured oa Thursday 
morning at 10 and 11 in Peirce Auditorium. 
Due to publication deadline, accounts of these 
lectures were not, however, available for pub- 
lication.

Editorially 
Speaking 



Do Education Courses Explain 
The 'Why's' of Education? 



Do American schools and colleges 
destroy spontaneity and fail to edu- 
cate? In an article which appeared in 
the January 26 edition of The New 
York Times, Israel Shenker tells of a 
study that is being sponsored by the 
Carnegie Corporation of New York 
which gives one reason to believe that 
educators simply do not educate. 

Charles E. Silberman, author of 
the study, stated that, "What's wrong 
with schools is not that teachers don't 
know what they're teaching, but that 
they don't know why they're teaching 
it — what the relation of their subject 
is to the rest of knowledge as well as 
life." In short, Mr. Silberman is chal- 
lenging the relevance of education, he 
is questioning its relationship to the 
students' experiences and to their lives 
in general. 

Since many of Clarion's students 
are preparing for a career in education, 
Mr. Silberman's remarks should be giv- 
en careful consideration. Every stu- 
dent should stop to think about the ed- 
ucation that is being offered at Clar- 
ion, and should question themselves 
about the value of the education they 
are receiving. Are students at Clarion 
being prepared to teach — do students, 
in other words, know why they will be 
teaching a particular subject, and do 
they know how their subjects relate to 
the rest of knowledge and to life? Do 
students really know the real purpose 
— the why's of a teaching career? 

Many education courses are re- 
quired at Clarion, including such cours- 
es as the social foundations of educa- 
tion, educational psychology, and 
methods. These courses teach students 
about education in general terms, but 
do they really teach students about the 
nature of education? 

Does educational psychology for 
example, teach students why they 
should or should not teach? Perhaps 
some of these courses do answer some 
of these questions and are, consequent- 



ly, valuable to students, but many of 
Clarion's students are frequently heard 
saying that education courses are "bor- 
ing" and "a waste of time." What are 
the reasons for comments such as 
these? 

Clarion is not alone with prob- 
lems in teacher education. In fact, 
Mr. Silberman asserted the fact that 
all institutions fall short of the real 
purposes in preparing students for 
teaching careers. 

Mr. Silberman further offers no 
immediate solution, especially not on 
the college level. "A study of teacher 
education cannot start with the teach- 
ers college ... it must start with the 
public school itself, with what should 
be taught, in what manner, and to what 
purpose." The way that public schools 
are now organized, spontaneity, initia- 
tive, and love of learning are destroyed 
among students and teachers, accord- 
ing to Mr. Silberman. 

This being the case, students pre- 
paring for teaching at Clarion must 
realize that they may someday be faced 
with a complete revamping of the edu- 
cational system, and they should now 
prepare themselves for such a change. 
For this reason, students should now 
begin to think about what they are 
^oing to be doing for the rest of their 
lives. Students should also take it 
upon themselves to evaluate the pur- 
poses of education — to think about the 
"why's" of learning. 

If students are not now getting the 
preparation that they need in their ed- 
ucation course, they should perhaps 
take on the personal and additional 
responsibility of learning important 
matters such as relating subjects to life 
on their own. Knowing one's subject 
matter is not enough — tomorrow's 
teachers, as Mr. Silberman states, must 
know "why" they are teaching before 
they can "educate."

Administration Should Prepare 
For Increasing 'Student Power ^ 



The demand for student power has 
been rampaging on college campuses 
across the nation for approximately 
five years. This demand for more 
power comes in many forms and for 
many different reasons. It sometimes 
comes in the form of student riots as 
witnessed last spring in Columbia, or 
it can come in a quiet manner as it did 
three years ago at Union College in 
Schenectady, New York. 

The demands for student power 
will continue to grow despite restraints 
from administration, trustees, and fac- 
ulty. It is ridiculous for anyone to 
a.ssume that today's college students 
are not mature enough to assume 
some of the responsibility for deciding 
the policies under which they will live 
for four years at college. If these stu- 
dents were not in school, they would 
probably be married and supporting 
themselves without the supervision of 
their parents. Why, then, should the 
administration, and others assume al- 
most total responsibility for the poli- 
cies? What the students want, in ef- 
fect, is participation in the formula- 
tion of their government. 

Thus far, there have been no riots 
or even quiet demands for student 
power on Clarion's campus, although 
one exception might be the recent stu- 
dents demand for a new disciplinary 
board. 

Before any type of revolutioti (by 
riots or otherwise) occurs on Clarion's 
campus (this is not to say that there 
will be), plans should be made for a 
new administrative structure. The pres- 
ident of Union College, Harold C. Mar- 
tin, in his article "ifeport of the Presi- 
dent 1967-1968." has advocated two 
pos.sible methods that will work. One 



works by parallels, the other by inte- 
gration. 

In the parallel structure, commit- 
tees for study and the formation of 
policies would be created separately 
by students, by faculty, by administra- 
tion, and by trustees. As theu" work 
progresses, the committees would meet 
jointly and negotiate one common poli- 
cy. 

In the integrated structure, there 
would be one committee composed of 
members from all of the constituen- 
cies. This plan is the less feasible be- 
cause it is not likely that all members 
of the committee can meet at any one 
time, the trustees especially because 
of the integrated pattern of their work- 

The physical structure is not what 
piatters. But the workability of the 
structure and whether it can withstand 
non-agreement on some issue is im- 
portant. Union College has not faced 
any major crisis. It has changed from 
a student government to an all-college 
council. They also have a discipline 
council comparable to the one begun 
at Clarion. 

The hardest aspect of change is 
not in becoming accustomed to it, but 
in finding time in which the change 
can be made. If the change in struc- 
ture is considered by all involved to 
be vital to the educational institution, 
then the time will be found for this 
revision. 

Clarion may never have an oppor- 
tunity to initiate the tvpe of program 
su^gestpd above, but the need is pres- 
ent. Will this need be allowed to lie 
dormant, fpster, and finallv burst forth 
into (nossiblv) another Columbia on 
Clarion's campus?

A Spotlight on Other Campuses 



NJa-'JUi V^yJlCi^ca'n^ 



By SHERRY LEHMAN 

The Pass-Fail .system nay very well be 
on its way at Slippery Rock State College; 
their faculty and administration voted last 
Monday, Feb. 3, to resolve the question. The 
Call carried an opinion poll on this subject 
in early December 1968, in which the students 
interviewed were shown generally In favor 
of such a system . . . more later when the 
results of the vote at Slippery Rock are pub- 
lished. 

A big concern these days on many cam- 
pu.ses is the debate over the new President's 
administration's suggestion to lower the vot- 
ing age to 18 in every state. At Indiana 
University of Pennsylvania, the student gov- 
ernment has moved to appoint a committee 
to establish a chapter of the National LUV 
(Let Us Vote) campaign on their campus. 
An opinion on the subject of lowering the 
voting age from a Temple University editor- 
ialist: "In an age when an 18-year-old is 
generally well Informed, is treated like an 
adult in the courts, and can be drafted into 
military service to die for his country, it 
is absurd that he should have no say in 
the policies and people who will govern his 
destiny." (Editorial, Temple News, 1-24-69.) 

More news from Temple concerning the 
elimination of what seems to be a universal 
plague —the Insanity of Registration. At Tem- 
ple they are aiming at netting up a more 
advanced and sophisticated system of regis- 
tration through computers for scheduling the 
students. Schedules will apparently be sent 
to the students prior to actual registration 
so that the inevitable pile-up of schedule 
changes will be fully taken care of before 
lull registration begins. 

Another change already made for this sem- 
ester was a master schedule made publicly 
available to the students including such in- 
formation as the names of all professors 
offering each course, the various times the 



courses were to be offered, and the rooms 
in which the classes were held. Thus at a 
glance, each student could plan his own 
class time schedule completely at pre-regis- 
tration according to his preferences, time 
needed for work or study, and hours neces- 
sary for college-sponsored activities. 

An article in the Millersville State College 
Snapper mentioned Mayor Lindsay of New 
York and his recent address to college presi- 
dents and administrators in Pittsburgh during 
an American Assocation of Colleges Confer- 
ence on "Liberal Learning and the Social 
Revolution." Mayor Lindsay suggested that 
the administrators listen to their students— 
and then work with them en their most "wor- 
thy demands." Lindsay's address was an up- 
dated, contemporary appeal to the unmoving, 
staunch supporters of outmoded educational 
methods, in an attempt to express the neces- 
sity and inevitability of change on today's 
modern campuses naturally involved in politi- 
cal reform. 

Shippensburg State College's library sci- 
ence department has be.'n equipped with two 
24-inch monitors to supplement their "Dial 
Access Information Retrieval System" (DA- 
IRS). With a dialing panel for the class pro- 
fessor, the monitors enable all the students 
of a particular class to view a particular 
program. These tapes allow a student to not 
only read his materal, but he can also watch 
it and listen to it. The DAIRS system is 
useful not only for basic research and enrich- 
ment, but also for review material and simply 
pleasure. 

Although the system is very expensive (in 
the nature of $107, (X)0) it has limitless possi- 
bilities in the communications field. Ck)mplete 
courses ciuld be taken through Dial Access; 
wiring connected to dormitories and other 
campus buildings would make it possible for 
students to dial a program any hour of the 
day or night. 



Letters; to the Editor 



On New Student Rights Proposal 

To the Editor, 

This letter is in reply to the Editorial writ- 
ten by Ed Wozniak titled "Faculty Senate 
to Discuss Proposal for Student Rights," 
which appeared in last week's Call. There is 
much more involved in this issue of Student 
Rights than is presented by Mr. Wozniak. 

There are currently three difierent commit- 
tees considering the subject of student rights. 
There is the Faculty Senate Committee head- 
ed bv Dr. Mellon, the Co'^imittee on Student 
Affairs headed by Dr. Elliott (who wrote 
"A Paper on Proposed Academic Freedom 
for Students at Clarion State Ck>llcge"), and 
the newly appointed Presidential Committee 
on Student Judiciary headed by Dr. Harmon, 
all considering the same topic. The existence 
of these three committees seems to epitomize 
the normal breakdown of communication at 
Clarion State College. 

Normally, pohcies governing Students Rig- 
hts and Responsibilities would interest Stu- 
dent Senate, who would seem the logical 
body to bo passing regulations on these mat- 
ters. We said normally. 

We agree with Mr. Wozniak's interest in 
a written code for CJlarion State Ck)llege. Cla- 
rion's Student Ck>de is unwritten and exists 
only at the discretion of the Dean of Students. 
The Dean readily admitted this at an "ad 
hoc" committee meeting. If Mr. Wozniak 
would read closely this "Paper ..." proposed 
by the Dean of Student Affairs Office he 
would find that tlie code is still unwritten 
and still exists at the discretion of the Dean 
of Students. 

Mr. Wozniak also states "The judicial pro- 
cess proposed for Clarion State College is 
quite fair." We bring to Mr. Wozniak's atten- 
tion the following parts of "A Paper on Pro 
posed Academic Freedom for Students at 
Clarion State College." 

"4,3.4.2. a. Original Jurisdiction: The Judi- 
ciary shall have original jurisdiction over: 
(1) Cases involving alleged violations of re- 
gulations (as of yet unwritten) which are 
referred to the Judiciary by the Office of 
the DEAN OF STUDENT AFFAIRS." 

"4.3.4.5. The chairman of the Judiciary 
shall send to the Oflice of the DEAN OF 
STUDENT AFFAIRS a written statement of 
the decision and the reasons for it," 

"4,3.4.3, Appeals: All decisions of the Judi- 
ciary with respect to individual and group 
actions are final unless appealed to the Dean 
of Student Affairs, who may Affirm, Reverse, 
or ask the Judiciary to reconsider a deci- 
sion." 

The case started with the Dean of Student 
Affairs, thus the original p^osecutor ends up 
as the final court of appeals. Fair isn't it? 

We also ask Mr, Wozniak to notice the 
long involved steps a student must go through 
to appear before the four various levels of 
Judiciaries proposed by the Paper on Student 
Rights, Also we ask Mr, Wozniak to remem- 
ber that he may only have a case heard 
at the discretion of the Dean of Student Af- 
fairs, who will also hear his appeal. Why 
bother with the Student Judiciary, the Dean 
will be the final authority under this system. 

For further information on this proposal 
we would recommend the reading of the 
"American Association of University Profes- 
sors , . . Report of the Committee Appointed 
to Review 'A Paper On Propo.sed Academic 
Freedom for Students' ..." The opinion of 
the AAUP committee is as follows: 

"The defects of the proposal are verbosity 
in grand, sweeping statements liable to any 
variety of interpretations— and that much be- 



cause of the bad English which rocks back 
and forth much like Natty Bumpo between 
the 'poetic' and the common— and vague am- 
biguity when points of actual power and pro- 
cedure are reached. Many more references 
to later sections would be necessary to make 
earlier ones intelligible and the whole docu- 
ment sorely needs an index. Tliat is, it needs 
editing very much, and revision still more. 
We recommend that it be referred to a com- 
mittee for rewriting, for in its present form 
it is almost beyond the possibilities of human 
consideration with all of its prolix ambiguity. 

"Worst of all, the document lays all too 
heavy a burden on the Dean of Student Af- 
fairs and his office. To ask the Dean to 
exercise the lone responsibility which this 
proposal thrusts upon him is to ask more 
and expect more of an administrative officer 
than we should." 

We suggest that the three committees cur- 
rently working on this issue combine their 
resources. 

Mr. Wozniak should be commended for 
showing interest in this matter and for his 
investment of time, but the complexity of 
this subject requires much more research 
and analysis than can be handled by one 
student working alone. 

RAYMOND W. YUTZY 
LAWRENCE D. CARTER 
Members of the Clarion Students' 
Association Constitutional Committee 

EDITOR'S REPLY 

I 

The following is a reply to the above let- 
ter to Ed Wozniak, Call reporter. 

Dear Mr. /utzy and Mr Carter, 

You, too, should be commended for your 
interest la student rights for Clarion. And 
I concede that there is much, much more 
involved in the issue of student rights than 
my limited time and space would allow me 
to discuss. And if you, Mr. Yutzy and Mr. 
Carter, would take some of your own advice, 
and "read closely" my article in last weeks 
Call you would realize that 1 made no preten- 
sion to know all about the issue of Student 
Rights, or that the "Paper" was acceptable 
in its present form, I quote from my article 
of February 7, "It (the proposed paper) is 
a GOOD BASIS TO BEGIN BUILDING upon 
to establish a more comprehensive code, ' 
I quote again from the same paragraph: 
"Undoubtedly, other flaws will be found that 
will require revision," Certainly, Mr, Yutzy 
and Mr, Carter, you could not suppose that 
I support the "paper" in its present form. 
You state in your letter, "If Mr, Wozniak 
would read closer this " , , , paper" proposed 
by the dean of student affairs he would find 
that the code is stiU unwritten and still exists 
at the discretion of the Dean of Students." 
I find this statement very ambiguous, but 
I believe that you are trying to say that 
the code has not yet been accepted by the 
college, because it has obviously written, by 
your own admission, by the office of the 
Dean of Students. Furthermore, I have read 
the "Paper ..." and can find nothing that 
would tell me that the code is as yet unac- 
cepted. But I challenge you to find anj^here 
in my article a statement that implies that 
the code has been accepted, I quote from 
the first paragraph of the February 7 article. 
". , , A Paper on Proposed Academic Free- 
dom for Students at Clarion State College," 
prepared by the office of the Dean of Student 
Affairs, is now being considered by a commit- 
tee of the faculty senate , , ." In short. I 
krww the code is aot yet accepted by the 



college; I stated that fact in my article and 
I cannot understand how you missea the po- 
int. 

You have listed section 4,3.4.5, of Article 
IV as not being acceptable to you. This sec- 
tion simply states that a written statement 
of the decision and ths reasons for it should 
be submitted by the judiciary to the Dean 
of Students. You have failed to give reasons 
why this section is unacceptable. 

You also state that, "The case started with 
the Dean of Student Affairs, thus, the original 
prosecutor ends up as the final court of Ap- 
peals." First, the case does not necessarily 
begin with the Dean of Student Affairs, al- 
though it may. The Student-Faculty Judiciary 
may hear cases from all lower courts in 
the judicial system, a fact clearly siated 
in my article. Finally, the Dean of Student 
Affairs may only hear appeals. He is not 
given authority to reverse a decision of "in- 
nocent" from any judicial body. I think that 
this is fair. 

Furthermore, you state, ". . . that he" (the 
accused) "may only have a case heard at 
the discretion of the Dean of Student Affairs." 
I am afraid that you are wrong again Mr. 
Yutzy and Mr. Carter. I quoted in my article 
and it is clearly stated in the "Paper ..." 
that the accused ". . . shall have the right to 
appear before one or more members of a 
duly constituted judicial body." The Dean 
will be tlie final authority only after one 
or more judiciaries of the judicial system 
have found the accused guilty. Then and 
only then, may the Dean be asked to make 
a decision. 

As I hav2 stated previously, this code for 
the college is not completely acceptable as 
it is. And you have brought out some good 
points to consider in revising it. But I believe 
that you have been too harsh in your criti- 
cism, and that you have misinterpreted many 
statements in the "Paper . . ." and in my 
article concerning it.

Misconduct Reputed 

To the Editor, 

It has been brought to the attention of this 
committee that there has been considerable 
amount of damage to tables, chairs, and lav- 
atory facilities in Chandler Hall during the 
las* two weekend dances. 

The purpose of having weekend dances is 
to give the students who manage to stay on 
campus for the weekend something to do. Al- 
though the facilities on this campus are 
rather limited, Chandler Hall is about Uie 
only place where a decent dance can be held. 

Unfortunately, if this type of misconduct, 
"showmanship," or exhibitionism must con- 
tinue, I am sure the administration will take 
actions to prevent any more damage — actions 
such as cancelling weekend dances. If this 
happens, I'm sure there will, once again, be 
resounding cries of the "Great CJlarion Void" 
or "What is there to do around here?" The 
answer, of course, will be slow (action will 
slowly fade out on the part of the students), 
and once again the "Grer.t Clarion Non-Ac- 
tives" will prevail. Who will be to blame? 
(Only a fool spits in his own well!) 

Respectfully, 

GEORGE HALL, Student Coordinator,. 

Social Committee

Valentine's Day is (for all those who don't 
know) today. Traditionally Feb. 14 is dedica-

to "fall in love." 

It is also a day when Valentine greetings 
are sent to loved ones or to those that would 
li|{e to have a "loved one" with fi \ri\e (but 
appropriate) "Be My Valentine" attached. To 
all those who are in "love" at Clarion (or

FRANK M, CAMPBELL 



By LINDA KOVANIS 

Dear Girls, 

Tired of sitting in the dorm weekend after 
weekend, month after month, semester after 
semester? Here's a chance to snatch a date 
with that special someone. This weekend Cla- 
rion will hold a "Golddigger's Weekend" with 
the girls asking the boys to the social events. 
The best part of this de.'-l is the price— all 
events arc free. On Friday night the^Gold- 
diggers will perform at t'^e dance in dhand- 
ler Hall. 

Highlighting the weekend will be a concert 
Saturday night in Tippin Gym where The 
Happenings will perform :'t 8 p.m. This cqn- 
tempory group con.sists of Dave Libert, Tom 
Guiliano, Bob Miranda, and Bemie La Porta. 
"See You In September," "Go Away Little 
Girl," and "My Mammy" are just a few 
of their hits. Besides singing their own -^ongs. 
The Happenin;is give impressions of Tlie Roll- 
ing Stones, Bob Dylan, and Johnny Mathis. 

Depending on vocal strength and pe|{6onal- 
ity, The Happenings have developed a so- 
phisticated stage act for show business. 
They've appeared on The Johnny Carson 



Show," "Smothers Brothers," at the Flamin- 
go in Las Vegas, and in a triumphal tour 
of Brazil. Besides singing and performing, 
they write some of their own songs. Recently 
they formed Mira-Lee Productions which will 
produce other groups. The Happenings are 
"what's happening." 

On Friday, Feb. 21, a folk-oriented singing 
group Irom Indiana University of Pennsyl- 
vania will perform in the Chapel at 8 p.m. 
The Folkmen were organized in 1964 to play 
at parties and college campuses in Western 
Pennsylvania. They went on to play in coffee 
houses along the East Coast and in 1967 won 
first prize in the Intercollegiate Music Com- 
petition. Members of the group are Warren 
Allen, D. C. Fitzgerald, Jeff Kelley, and Alan 
Luckey. Their music ranges from folk songs 
to spirituals. 

So girls, this time it's up to you. You 
have no excuse for missing these events. 
Snatch yourself up a date and have a good 
time this weekend. 

Yours truly, 

A supporter of the social committee

AT THE MOVIES 



In Review. . • 
'The World of Apu' 



By JOHN MATVIKO 

The American movie of late has become 
an extremely fast-moving affair. When there 
is killing it must be done quickly (for ^exam- 
ple "Bonnie and Clyde"). If the movie has 
action, it must be constant. ("Bullitt"). Even 
the affairs that American men have must 
be handled very quickly ("Petulia"). Some 
of the newer techniques, particularly quick 
cuts and the split screen, have added to 
this rapid-fire quality that seems to typify 
the American movie. In a very definite sense 
the movies only reflect the fast-moving so- 
ciety in which we live. All of this becomes 
quite apparent when one sees a movie such 
as the Indian film "The World of Apu," 
directed by Satyajit Ray. 

The film revolves around the character 
of Apu who lives in the city of Calcutta. 
Apu is too poor to continue going to college, 
yet he cannot accept a menial job. He goes 
to a wedding with a friend and ends up 
marrying the girl to prevent her loss of honor. 
The couple falls deeply in love with one ano- 
ther only to have fate end their happiness. 
Apu's wife has died during childbirth but 
the child has survived. Apu flees but event- 
ually comes to realize that he must win 
the child's acceptance. 

Ck)ntrasted to American films, the movie 
is very slow moving. Ray's direction, how- 
ever, is superb. When Apu and his wife are 
together we know that they are in love. We 
do not need odd camera shots of them making 
love, or fast cuts of how glamorous a couple 
they are, as an American director might 
make it. Instead we need only that one shot 
of the faces of two people deeply in love. 
This is all that Ray gives us but at times 
it is more than we can handle. "The World 
of Apu" is a slow but richly rewarding exper- 
ience for any serious movie-goer. 

"The World of Apu" will be shown tonight 
at 7:30 in the Peirce Auditorium. 



Compile 13-3 Mark 

Four Clarion debaters compiled the best 
win-loss record among 76 teams from 26 
states and the District of Columbia in the 
Marshall Wythe Debate Tournament last 
weekend at William and Mary College. 

The Clarion debaters posted a four-man 
record of 13 wins and tliree losses to take 
top honors. Northwestern took second place 
with 12-4. 

At the end of eight preliminary rounds, 
Clarion juniors Mary Lou McCauliff, Jc^- 
stown, and Betti Ferguson, Gibsonia, wefe 
tied for first place with a 7-1 record, but 
lost to Richmond in the quarterfinals. 

McCauliff and Ferguson had wins over 
Northwestern, Navy, Wake Forest, DePauw, 
King's, Bowling Green and Capital, and a 
loss to Augustana in the preliminaries. 

Junior Kaye Berkey, Jennerstown, and sen- 
ior Pat Dobson, Penn Hills, compiled a 6-2 
record in the preliminaries and missed qual- 
ifying for the quarterfinals when the tie was 
broken on speaker points. 

Dobson and Berkey finished in tenth place 
overall, posting wins over Miami, Bates, Am- 
erican, Wisconsin, Illinois State and Ohio Un- 
iversity, and losses to Wayne State and Nor- 
thern Illinois. 

Both winning teams received pxlaques writ- 
ten in the script of Colonial Williamsburg. 



Venango News 

Changes at Venango 

New courses being offered at Venango 
Campus this semester include geology, Ameri- 
can prose, advanced composition, and envi- 
ronmental biology. 

Another change at the Venango Campus 
is the addition of Saturday classes. This 
change has been made to expand the library 
facihties. One of the classrooms has been 
converted into ' a library reading room for 
students. For 'this reason, space does not 
enable all classes to meet during the five- 
day week. 

Student Senate Activities 

Gloria Picl and Jill Will will fill the va- 
cancies of cultural committee chairman and 
vice president of Student Senate for the se- 
cond semester on Thursday. Both girls were 
elected at the first meeting of the second 
semester. 

Also at the first meeting, it was decided 
that the prize money of $75 from Venango's 
entry in the Autumn Leaf Parade would be 
donated to the Lee Bleustein Memorial Fund. 

New Resident Assistants 

Three new riesident assistants have been 
added to the staff at Montgomery Hall. These 
students are Barb Stevens, Harry Hont, and 
Ted Pappas. 

Letters to the Editor 

(Continned from page 2) 

I shall be present to discuss questions with 
any interested students. 

This is your student government! Show an 
interest.

Following Otto Preminger's "Skickx>" at 
the Garby will be an unusual pairing of two 
of last year's biggest hits. Warren Beatty 
and Faye Dunaway return Sunday as "Bonnie 
and Clyde," while Sandy Dennis comes back 
in "Up the Dowti Staircase." This duo will 
be replaced on Wednesday by Ste\e McQueen 
starring in "BuUit." 



Clarions lh\rf^-Om' Year Man 
Sees Many Changes on Campus, 
Particularly in the Student Body 



By ANN ROHRBAUGH 

Frank M. Campbell, assistant professor in 
social studies, has been at Clarion for 31 
years, longer than any otlier faculty member. 
Mr. Campbell is the supervisor of the social 
studies student teachers, and teaches a me- 
thods couxse, and also teaches sociology. 

Following his graduation from Grove City 
College, Mr. Campbell moved to Clarion and 
taught at Oarion High School for five years. 
In 1937 he was asked to come to the col- 
lege as a demonstration teacher and to start 
a language department of French and Span- 
ish. For a while he worked at the high school 
and at the college, but eventually the col- 
lege job required all of his time. 

Naturally, Mr. Campbell has seen many 
changes on the Clarion campus. When he 
arrived, Old Science, the Chapel, Harvey 
Hall, Davis, Training School, Becht, and Sem- 
inary Hall were the only buildings on cam- 
pus, besides Egbert which was just under 
construction. After the war, Ballentine was 
built followed by Given, Ralston, Peirce Sci- 
ence Center, and Tippin Gymnasium. 

The need for the new buildings was cau- 
sed by the increase in students and faculty. 
When Mr. Campbell came to Oarion there 
were 22 faculty members and 304 students 
Everyone knew everyone else, and the stu- 
dents were often entertained by the faculty 
It was easy for students to get in touch 
with their instructors, and they often visitejl 
their teachers at their homes. 

Helped Recruit Students 

There were only one or two teachers in 
each department. Most of the students wer^ 
enrolled in elementary education, thougji 
there were some in English, math and sci^- 
ence. After 1939, however, the specialized 
library science department attracted many 
sltidents. i 

During his early years at Clarion, Mr. 
Campbell helped to recruit students as di^ 
all the other faculty members. He said each 
teacher was assigned a district and it waS 
his job to visit high schools in the area 
and try to influence students to come to 
Clarion. 

There has not been a change in the atti- 
tude of the administrators, according to Mr. 
Campbell, because some of the same deans 
are still at Clarion. When the college was 
considerably smaller, the president and deaas 
knew all the students. Of course knowing 
everyone is impossible today because the stu- 
dents are now dealt with by number rather 
than by name. 

Mr. Campbell noted that the biggest changfe 
of all was in the students themselves. The 
student today is more independent in many 
aspects, especially financially. Between the 
depression and World War II, the studentis 
were dependent on their earnings to remain 
in school. Almost all students had a job and 
they usually earned about 25 cents an hour. 
The students received their checks to endorse 
them, but then the check was automatically 
applied to their expenses. 

An interesting student financial problem 
was recalled by Mr. Campbell. Once a stu- 
dent approached Mr. Campbell and asked him 
to cut his hair because it was too long to 
go to a dance. Mr. Campbell told the boy 
he had never cut hair and advised him to 
go to a barber, but the boy simply couldn't 
afford it. 

'Official Barber' 

Though he was inexperienced, Mr. Camp- 
bell cut the boy's hair. Unfortunately, he got 
it too short at places, but a brown crayon 
took care of those spots. It wasn't long before 
Mr. Campbell became the "official barber." 

The rules and regulations for students liv- 
ing in dormitories were more strict years 
ago. Freshman girls had to be in by 7 and 
upperclassmen by 10, unless they had special 
permission. 

The role of the college has changed some- 




FRANK M. CAMPBELL 

what over the years. At one time the coUcgc 
sponsored parties In Becht for all the stu- 
dents and faculty. The college furnished food 
and variety shows were held by the students. 
Tables in the dining hall were once decorated 
by the students and the art department awar- 
de<i prizes to those with the most attractive 
celite<T>ieces. 

, Mvd Signifies Progress 

Group singing often took place in the cafe- 
teiaa lalso, as well as entertainment following 
meals. Parents' Day was also considerably 
different many years ago. Both parents of 
th^ -students used to visit for the weekend 
and stay overnight in the dorms, participat- 
ing in various activities planned for their 
benefit. 

Mr. Campbell also said the town of Clarion 
has grown with the college, both economi- 
cally and in population. Today Uie town is 
dependent on the college, but it is rather 
a ' mutual dependence. The college has 
brought many new people to Clarion to serve 
in instructional and non-instructional posi- 
tions, and these people have found a place 
to live in Clarion. 

When Mr. Campbell first came to Clarion, 
there wds mXid on many areas of the cam- 
pus due t9 the construction. Through the 
years there haven't been many times without 
mud-.somowhexe on tlie campus. This leads 
Mr. Campbell' to say, "Mud signifies pro- 
gress." He regards all the changes as being 
for' the good and lie predicts many more 
in the decade to conie. 

By 1979 he estimates that Clarion will have 
7,000 students. As Clarion started as a normal 
school and became a state college, he feels 
quite confident that in the near future Clar- 
ion win become a university. 

Mr. Campbell has been active in many 
college activities and has held several posi- 
tions. He was assistant dean of men for 
many yea^^s and lived in Egbert and Sem- 
inary Halls as a director. He has been an 
advisor to Sigma Tau Gamma and Phi Sig- 
ma Epsilon fraternities and has been editor 
of the alumni newspaper. He is especially 
proud of tjif f*« that he has only missed 
two days of school in 31 years. 

"It has been a long time and a short time," 
says Mf.. Canjpbcll. "The years have been 
most pleasant ukdor Dr. Chandler and Dr. 
Gemmell, and it has always been a pleasure 
to come to school." Mr. Campbell plans to 
retire in seven or eight years.

Hun Judo Team Ties for 3rd Place; 
Tom Komis Achieves Perfect Score 



For its first match of the season, the CSC 
Hun Judo Club sent six men plus an alter- 
nate to the third annual Juniata Invitational 
Judo Tournament last Saturday at Hunting- 
ton, Pa. Forty two contestants from seven 
teams fought for the team championship mi 
the main floor of the Memorial Gymnasium 
at Juniata College. The teams were from 
Penn State, Slippery Rock, Lock Haven, Cla- 
rion, Newark, Juniata, and Montclair. Mr. 
Freeman of Princeton University, a godan 
(fifth degree black belt) was present to as- 
sure the proper execution of the tournament, 
and to referee many of the games. Other 
referees were Harry Miller, coach of Lock 
Haven; and Andor P-Jobb, coach of Clarion. 

Juniata College Judo Team fought for first 
place in the final ahiai, battling Newark En- 
gineering, and won with a score of 30 to 
20, out of 60 possible points. Newark Engin- 
eering was the champion team of the 1968 
eastern collegiate meet at Georgetown Uni- 
versity, Washington, D.C. This further inten- 
sified the importance of Juniata's victory. 

After the championship games, 14 men put 
on an exhibition meet for the benefit of tlie 
audience and for the contestants' individual 
experience. Altogether 56 judokas attended 
the tournament. The successful attendance at 
the tournament more and more indicates that 
&part judo is becoming an "in" thing on 
college campuses. 

The CSC Hun Judo Qub was represented 
by six strong men: Ralph Peasley, three 
losses, one win of seven points, John DeFas- 
sio, three losses, one win of 10 points, Tom 
Komis, four wins of 10 points each. Bill Clark, 
two losses, one win of 10 points, one draw, 



Ray Weaver, two losses, two 10-point wins. 
Rick Jones, three losses, c ne win of 10 points, 
and John Brestensky, three losses and one 
draw. 

Tom Komis, a freshman from Pittsburgh 
majoring in physical education, who had in- 
herited the captainship of the Judo Team 
from Nick Gbur after his graduation in Jan- 
uary 19G9, once again proved to be an ex- 
cellent sportsman. He was one of the few 
contestants of the tournament who was able 
to achieve a perfect score in all the con- 
tests. It is most likely that Tom will be 
the first product of our college as a black 
belt holder. 

The CSC Hun Judo Club tied for third 
place with Slippery Rock and Penn State. 
The Clarion Huns had four matches: Lock 
Haven vs. CSC, 20 to 30; Juniata vs. CSC, 
50 to 10; Penn State vs. CSC, 20 to 37; 
and Slippery Rock vs. CSC, 40 to 10.

The CSC Huns will attend the Slippery Rock 
Invitational tomorrow and the Penn State 
Invitational February 23, 1969. On March 1, 
the belt promotion tests will take place at 
Clarion.

colleges and ninth among all colleges in the 
nation by a 30-10 score last Saturday at Lock 
Haven. 

The Golden Eagles travel to Grove City on 
Wednesday and St. Francis next Saturday to 
wind up their regular season. 

Capping the season's activities, February

i Concert of Miguel Rubio 
Is Rescheduled for Monday

for the matured music lover as well as the 
younger generation, Miguel Rubio, classical 
guitarist, will present a rescheduled concert 
open to the public on Monday at 8:30 p.m. 
in the college chapel. 

Rubio, whose original Feb. 10 concert was 
cancelled when he was snowed in on the 
East Coast, is a native of Madrid, Spain. 
When 14 years old, he studied for one and 
one-half years with Daniel Fortea, who was 
a pupil of Carrega. He attended the Conser- 
vatory of Madrid for seven years and earned 
the Diploma Extraordinary for Guitar. 

In 1958, Rubio began a five-year study of 
virtuosity with well-known guitar master An- 
drea Segovia. In 1963, he became a teacher 
of classical guitar at the Conservatories of 
Lausanne, Bom and Bienne in Switzerland. 
He has appeared in recitals in Spain, France, 
Italy, Germany and Switzerland. 

Critics say that "he offers the whole scale 
of the instrument's colors, its finesse' sub-

CLARION ST ATE COLLEGE — CLARION, PENNSYLVANIA 

FOOD PROBLEMS DISCUSSED 



Friday, February 21, 1969 



Three Candidates Will Battle 



All Four Lines Now in Use; ^^^ student Senate Presidency 
Students May Receive Seconds 

On First Trip Through Line 



A meeting to discuss various problems of 
the food service and dining hall was held 
Thursday afternoon in Chandler Dining Hall. 

Present at the meeting were: Dr. Allan 
Elliot, Dean of Student Affairs; George Cur- 
tis, Donald Nair, Betty Reisman, and Ethel 
Vairo, Assistant Deans of Student Affairs; 
Earl Zerfoss, manager of Uie dining hall; 
Walter Kubit, district supervisor for Servo- 
mation-Mathias; and Thomas Philips, a su- 
pervisor of college food programs from the 
Institutional Food and Services Program of 
the Board of College Presidents at State Col- 
lege, Pa. Also present were Thomas Paolino, 
Student Senate president, and Peggy Harding, 
who was representing a committee of stu- 
dents interested in the problems of the cafe- 
teria. 

Dean Elliot explained that the meeting with 
the various Servomation employees was the 
result of several meetings with Peggy Hard- 
ing, at which she requested such a confer- 
ence. 

Miss Harding's main complaint lay with the 
length of time necessary to get through the 
cafeteria line. She said this was due to the 
closing of one of the lines, the bottleneck 
at the beverage machines, and the lines for- 
med by students desiring a second serving 
at lunch. 

Mr. Kubit said the cafeteria line was clo- 
sed because Servomation had received re- 
ports of a decrease in em-ollment. He stated 
that since receiving reports, however, Servo- 
mation has found that it is still necessary 
to have all lines oi>cn and all four dining 
rooms are now back in use. 

Mr. Zerfoss announced that, as of this 



weekend, three lines will be open on Satur- 
days and Sundays. 

Electricians are currently Investigating the 
possibility of moving the milk machines out 
of the main service Unes, and installing them 
near the water fountains. It was found that 
the soda machines are not movable. 

Mr. Zerfoss also announced that, beginning 
next week, students will be allowed a second 
serving, if desired, while first going through 
the line. This should eliminate some of the 
line due to people waiting for seconds. 

Several students present raised questions 
about the new meal tickets. Miss Harding 
said she found most students did not mind 
the system itself, but were concerned about 
lost or forgotten meal tickets. Dr. Elliot 
informed the students that people who forget 
their meal tickets can now go through the 
line and have their number verified with 
the checker. A student asked if money will 
be refunded for meals missed by the students. 
Dean Elliot said the money could not be 
refunded, since students are responsible for 
meals not eaten in the cafeteria. Refunds 
are not required by the food services con- 
tract. 

Dr. Elliot announced at the meeting that 
Mr. Kubit has been assigned to Clarion for 
the rest of the semester to study any pro- 
blems in food service encountered by Servo- 
mation. Dean Elliot also urged students with 
complaints about the food service to become 
familiar with the members of the food ser- 
vices committee. Mr. Curtis said that a meet- 
ing of the committee will be this Tuesday 
at 1 p.m. in 206 Egbert Hall. Meetings are 
held every other Tuesday. 



OPINION POLL 



Students Sound Out on Courses, 
Importance of Required 
Courses Is Realized by Some 



By ROSEMARY SLEBODNIK 

An editorial which was published in the 
last issue of the Call questioned the effec- 
tiveness of so-called education courses taught 
at Clarion. In this issue, we have asked stu- 
dents to contribute their ideas about the ade- 
quacy of the present curricula, and about 
the choice of courses offered as general edu- 
cation requirements. Students were also free 
to discuss any deficiencies in course require- 
ments for their majors. 

Gary Grubich: "I'm in English. I wouldn't 
say the courses are lacking in my field. 
But I do have one gripe— the history courses. 
I know we are supposed to have a well 
rounded education, but I don't see why some 
of the history courses are required. I think 
the required history courses like U.S. and 
Pa., and Mod Civ., which are taught in one 
semester, should be two semesters. Instead 
of taking two history courses, you could have 
one of them extended for two semesters 
This would allow you to study more about 
the subject." 

Doug Moore: "I don't like the idea of 
required courses. I think there should be 
only electives. If I had to take a course 
such as biology, I would probably be taking 
the course with some biology majors. The 
professor would probably accelerate the 



course for them, and the rest of us would 
be left behind." 

Denny Demarte: "I think the required 
courses are good to have. I've realized this 
since I've gone student teaching. You might 
think they are not important, but they really 
round out your education. When you go stu- 
dent teaching, you'l find you have to know 
a little bit of everything." 

Carol Sjoberg: "I feel the school is justi- 
fied in requiring us to take many of the 
general courses, but fewer courses in music 
and art should be required. Not that they 
are not important, but specialists in these 
fields take care of music and art in the 
classroom. Reading and math are not given 
enough emphasis. I think there should be 
more courses which would give a better back- 
ground in math and reading." 

Gary Clark: "My major is Spanish. I'm 
happy with my major cuurses, but I think 
some of the basic requirements are unneces- 
sary because they have nothing to do with 
your field. I'd rather take more courses in 
my major." 

Larry Welsch: "I'm in business adminis- 
tration and it's a pretty limited field and 
there aren't many courses to choose from. 
You have to take more or less what they

Mr. Jerak Speaks of 'Lost World'; 
Explorer Presents Worthwhile Program 



By LINDA SHAFFER 

On Wednesday night, the Clarion Geogra- 
phical Society presented an illustrated lecture 
by Mr. Ivan Jerak about the "Lost World." 
Mr. Jerak, a research historian and doctoral 
candidate at Carnegie Mellon University, is 
also a mountain climber, teacher, and ex- 
plorer. He has climbed over 35 mountains, 
some as much as 20,000 feet high, in 13 
countries and even named Mount Pittsburgh 
in Columbia. 

Mr. Jerak's opening remarks concerned ex- 
ploring in general. He told geography stu- 
dents in Peirce Auditorium's large audience 
that today there is a need for generalists 
like themselves in our world of specialists. 
The explorer then presented a very worth- 
while program, illustrated with slides, con- 
cerning his latest expedition which took place 
in the summer of 1968. In this 13-day exped- 
ition, sponsored by the Pittsburgh Zoological 
Society and the Pittsburgh Press, 18 men 
explored an area of Venezuela upon most 
of which man had never before set foot. 
This area, Ayan Tepui, is an almost inacces- 
sible plateau referred to by Sir Arthur Conan 
Doyle in his book, "Lost World." The theory 
that dinosaurs and other animals extinct else- 
where may exist on Ayan Tepui has been

the soiu-ce of many science fiction movies. 
Mr. Jerak related more of the history be- 
hind this area. Located there is Angel Falls, 
the world's highest falls, 20 times higher 
than the better-known Niagara Falls. The 
falls were named after an airplane pUot, 
Johnny Angel, who was hired to fly without 
maps to an unknown place. After landing 
he waited in the plane until his passenger 
returned with a sack full of diamonds. The 
now rich man spent his money on a three-day 
drinking binge which caused his death. John- 
ny Angel spent the rest of his life searching 
for the source of the diamonds. He eventually 
landed on top of Ayan Tepui and from there 
he left his plane never to return. 

Mr. Jerak's expedition dispelled the hopes 
of a treasure source on the plateau because 
no igneous rock, which is necessary for the 
formation of diamonds, was found. They did 
find many unique biological specimens whUe 
exploring a lake region and a region known 
as the Enchanted Valley. The explorer's en- 
thusiastic, detailed description of his expedi- 
tion and a later expedition which involved 
scaling the pleateau, and his humorous sto- 
ries made Wednesday's lecture very enjoy- 
able and iuiormative. Many students who 
were forced to attend for various classes 
left the auditorium surprised at how much 
they had enjoyed the hours' presentation. 

The lectm-e was followed by a question 
period and a meeting of the Geographical 
Society. Students interested in joining the 
society were invited to remain. 

Faculty Senate 
Approves Masters 
In Communication 

Clarion State this week took its first, step 
toward offering a master of arts in communi- 
cation. 

The Faculty Senate at its meeting Monday- 
approved a proposal to offer the M. A. in 
Communication. There is a possibility that 
candidates for graduate study leading to this 
degree will be accepted in September, accord- 
ing to Dr. James H. Cole, dean of the di- 
vision of communication. He points out, how- 
ever, that the proposal must first be ap- 
proved by the college's committee on grad- 
uate study and by the Etepartment of Public 
Instruction in Harrisburg. 

The program and degree are intended for 
three kinds of students: those interested in 
qualifying as media specialists under state 
certification requirements, those interested 
in working toward a doctorate in mass com- 
munications, and those interested in a car- 
eer in radio and television. 

Graduates of accredited colleges in either 
teacher education or the liberal arts are eli- 
gible for admission to the program, accord- 
ing to Inez Baker, faculty senator represent- 
ing the division of communication. One of 
the requirements for the degree is 36 credit 
hours. A number of other requirements arc 
Usted in the proposal. 

The proposal was approved by the Senate 
after an hour and 15 minutes of questions, 
answers, and related comments. Besides Dr. 
Cole and Miss Baker, those who clarified 
the proposal included Dr. Wiliani A. Mc- 
Cauley, dean of graduate studies; Dr. Ri- 
chard M. Metcalf, professor of communica- 
tion; and Dr. Dana S. Still, assistant dean 
of academic affairs. 

In other business at the Senate meeting. 
Dr. Daniel K. Shirey, Senate chairman, an- 
nounced that Dr. John Mellon, dean of liberal 
arts, has been appointed by President James 
Gemmell to the "committee on the curricu- 
lum committee." 

Those already named to that committee 
are the chairman, Nadine Donachy, assistant 
professor of biology, and the following mem- 
bers: Dr. Paul E. Beck, associate professor 
of chemistry; Dr. Harold V. Hartley. Jr.. 
associate professor of special education: Dr. 
Helen Knuth. professor of history; and John 
G. Mager, associate professor and library 
cataloger.

THE CALL -- Clarion State College, Clarion, Pennsylvania 



Friday, February 21, 1969 



Editorially 

Speaking . . 

Do Students Care About 
Their Government? Voters 
Can Prove That They Do! 



student Senate elections will be 
held on Monday and Wednesday- On 
these days students will have the op- 
portunity to choose their leaders by 
democratic vote. But having an oppor- 
tunity to vote is often not enough for 
the Clarion student. 

Judged on past elections the per- 
centage of voters that made their 
voices heard during Student Senate 
elections is small. Last year, for ex- 
ample, only 16 per cent of the student 
body voted in the election for Student 
Senate officers. An even smaller per- 
centage voted in the regular election 
of senators. 

Such a small number of students 
is certainly not indicative of interested 
students; one is led to believe, in fact, 
the contrary, that Clarion students 
simply do not care about their govern- 
ment. But is it fair to say that the 
Clarion student does not care when this 
same student is quick to complain 
about what is happening in Senate? 

Fair or not, the fact remains that 
students who do not vote should not 
accuse and defy those who are elected 
when Senate activities do not please 
them. 

Included in this week's Call are 



the platforms of the candidates for 
Senate President and Vice-President. 
Each student should take the time to 
read each of these statements careful- 
ly. Each student should also weigh the 
qualifications of the candidates in 
terms of what they want for their stu- 
dent government. 

After doing so, the logical thing 
to do is to make a choice (based on 
fact and reason) and to vote for the 
leaders of their choice on Monday. 
Students should also find out what stu- 
dents are running for senators, and 
should find out what qualifications 
these students have as representatives 
of the student body. 

Each student should, in short, con- 
sider it his personal responsibility to 
take an active interest in Clarion's stu- 
dent government. Each vote is impor- 
tant. For this reason, each student 
should vote. If the students care about 
their government, they'll show up at 
the polls on Monday and Wednesday. 
Remember that a strong government 
depends on a strong student vote. The 
opportunity is here, take advantage of 

it.

Teacher Evaluation Praised; 
Survey Should Encompass 
All Depts, for Measurement 



The college student (better than 
anyone else) can criticize the college 'or 
university he attends. He can easily 
discern the school's good and ba^ qUal- 
ilies, and he also feels no qualms in al- 
lowing his opinions to be known. 

Last year the American College 
Testing Program surveyed 10 per tent 
of last year's senior class in a sampling 
of large state universities across the 
nation. This survey was irot conducted 
here at Clarion, but it would be inter- 
esting to know how Clarion would mea- 
sure up with the schools across the na- 
tion. 

In an article in the University of 
Iowa's Spectator, January 1969, a Com- 
parison between the University of Iowa 
and the rest of the nation was printed. 

Nationally it was found that only 
14 per cent of the seniors sampled felt 
a majority of their instructors gave lec- 
tures that were dry, dull, and monoto- 
nous. If ('larion's seniors were sam- 
pled, would they compare with the na- 
tional average, or would they be com- 
parable with Iowa's seniors? Twenty- 
one per cent of the men and 18 per 
cent of the women (Iowa seniors) said 
a majority of their instructors were 
boring. 

In the sampling, the students were 
asked their opinions on issues such as 
rules pertaining to student conduct, 
i>ulicy making, and housing regulations, 
hey were asked about the value of 
taculty advisors and of the counseling 
services on their campuses. Issues of 
less importance were the cultural pro- 



grams, recreational facilities, food ser- 
vices, and their reasons for attending 
the college they did. 

It may not be feasible for the same 
stirvey to be conducted at Clarion; pos- 
sibly no survey will be conducted. But 
this does not mean that a teacher evalu- 
ation need be by-passed. 

Some departments have already 
initiated a student evaluation of their 
instructors, but what about the other 
departments? Or do these departments 
feel that the students are not capable 
of evaluating the education they are 
receiving? Possibly these departments 
do not feel the need for revision and 
evaluation of their instructors and the 
value of their courses. 

Once the evaluations have been 
conducted, has anything been done 
with them, or have they been conduct- 
ed merely for show? Are they not to 
bd taken seriously? If they have been 
read and studied, the departments 
must surely know the strong and weak 
points of the education they are provid- 
ing for the students. It is only natural 
to assume then that the departments 
would revise their curriculums to alle- 
viate the weak points. 

If an evaluation survey sheet was 
devised to encompass all departments, 
the educational value of the courses 
could be measured. All courses and 
instructors would then be evaluated by 
the same standards. This would lead 
to a better educational system as a 
whole.

computer center is the main thin? lacking 
in my field. I like the fact that I can choose

as it can be and still te».ch the necessary 
background in'^ormation," 

Few students find their major fields lack- 
ing, rnd students as a whole realize the im- 
portance of certain required courses. Individ- 
uals do feel, however, these general education 
<;ourses are inadequate in themselves, or are 
inadequately presented. Perhaps a wider 
choice of required subjects would make stu- 
dents more willing to accept these courses, 
siace each person would feel he had really 
selected his own courses.

Letters to The Editor 



Protest Against Students 

To the Editor, 

I would wager a bet that nearly every 
studeut at CSC is faced with at least ©ne 
pamiuUy dead class again this sjemester. Da- 
re 1 ask: How long can you tc^erate sitting 
in c'ass like a bump on a log? Do you 
appreciate your instructor's eiiorts at "guid- 
ing you to think for yourself"? Do you enjoy 
swallowing everytliiiig thrown at ypu? It is 
with utter frustration that I force myself 
to attend .such classes where I am treated 
like a nt.n-tliink.ing organism. 

Popular opinion holds those "old fogy" 
teachers to blame, those "dictators" who in- 
sist on telling us what or how to think, those 
v'ho read to us, those who seemingly preach 
to the desks, tho^e who brainwash and pour 
"society ' into our frames. I do not deny 
tliat Claricn already has had. its share. Of 
these "teachers," but we must never stop 
here. On this same campus thera are many 
teachers who are more than willing to recogn- 
ize vhat learning really is, provided the stu- 
dents are interested enough to make their 
desires known and to respond to opportunities 
for a greater role. 

Just last week one instructor granted the 
students in his class a definite voicd in decid- 
ing how many and what kind of tests, when 
they should be administered and how much 
material to be included on each, yet only 
one modest student seemed concerned enough 
to speak out! This one student made Up 
the mind of the entire class. Rig'it here Is 
the embryo of a protest against apathetic 
and comp'acent fellow-classmatei. 

We do have teachers here who recognize 
that student participation is essential for any 
learning experience. There are some instruc- 
tors at CSC who will give the students a 
voice even in deciding the organization of 
the course, and who will allow students to 
grade tliemselves on the basis of how much 
they have contributed to fellow classmates. 
Yes, students can be and must be teachers — 
all have a shared responfiibility for learning. 

Perhaps this sounds ti-o ideal, but I'm con- 
vinced that the area of deficiency lies in 
students themselves. If we allow the "dicta- 
torship" of teachers to repress our potential 
to think, we deserve to become parrots whose 
job it is to guess what the teachers are 
thinking. Sorry, friends, but we owe it to 
.ourselves to stay alive, to use what has been 
given us so that we may not die. We have 
no choice now but to leap out of our groove 
of apathy, complacency and non-responsive- 
ness if we are to survive. 

It's our job to put life where there is no 
life. Let's synclironize teacher's and stu- 
dent's efforts in the classroom, for all of 
us have so much to give if o"4ly we would 
realize this, even tlie characters holding dqwn 
the seats in the comers who will not offer 
even a grunt to the teaching-learning process. 

S. P. B. 



all, vote/ Now is your chance to decide whe- 
ther Student Government will represent the 
student body or be a mere puppet because 
ol leaders un amiiiar with i.ssue.s aid out 
of touch with the student body. Which man 
best represents your intern sts in stuae.it ;;ov- 
einmeot?

To the Editor: 

Monday. Feb. 24, the election of Student 
Senate officers will be held from 9 to 5 
inside the entrance of Chandler Dining Hall 
that is nearest to the Student Union. 

The p'at'orms of all the candidates are 
printed i nthis issue of the Call which should 
give all the students a good basis tq jud^je 
the candidates. If the students will read the 
platform of candidate Ray Yutzy they will 
find that many of their interest^ are at stake 
and that it will take a competent leader 
to forward the interests of the students. Ray 
Yutzy had challenged all candidates to a 
debate and was refused because they- didn't 
have time or wouldn't debate. If these can- . 
didates don't have time now to discuss stu- 
dent interests, will they have.' time in> Ibe 
future to consider student interests in run- 
ning Senate? If the candidates won't debate 
now will they have time later to stand up 
for student rights, or will they allow Student 
Senate to be run by the administration? 

Now is the time for students to really de- 
cide what they want in the form of Student 
Government. There are clear-cut issues and 
clear platforms. I suggest that the students 
read the platlorms, decide which issues they 
will support, and then, most important of 



Editor, The Call: 

I would like to congratulate student senate 
presidental nominees, Jan johnjiou and ioui 
bomers for not accepting the challenge from 
candidate Ray Yutzy to participate i.i two 
debates. It would be very looiish on their 
parts to accept such a challenge lor the 
following reasons : 

1. No issues or questions were submitted 
by the challenger, Ray Yutzy, to the chal- 
lenged so that tliey could decide where they 
stand on particular issues. This is like having 
an old-western gun duel where the ciiallen- 
ger picks his weapcn (a cannon) and leaves 
the challenged the remaining weapons (un- 
loaded cap guns). 

2. No specific times were given stating 
when the debatr^s would be held. 

3. The student senate in order to move 
elections ahead accepted to eiiminutc Section 
3 of Article 3 of the bylaws of the constitution 
of the Clarion Students' Association. This sec- 
tion provides that candidates for prcsiderit 
and vice president make a campaign speech 
not to exceed 10 minutes. With passage of 
this motion, no candidate is required to make 
any speech. Thus, Jan Johnston and Tom 
Somers should not be made to feel guilty 
for executing their right not to participate 
in the debates. 

4. From the challenge printed in last week's 
Call, I found nothing stating how the debats 
would be conducted or who would mediate 
to prevent discussion which was not germane 
to the issue, or who would take questioiis 
from the audience. 

These four points seem to be lacking or 
unconsidered by nominee Ray Yutzy. 

In closing, I would like to ask and. at 
the same time, answer one question concern- 
ing the debates. What good would the de- 
bates be? In answer: They could have been 
good if the students were inLeresttd in at- 
tending and seeing the candidates, but pa.jt 
experience shows that very few people at- 
tended the required speeches of the candi 
dates. Also, each of the candidrtes. and as 
a matter of fact, most of Clarion's students 
realize that Clarion needs some reform in 
many areas. 

The debates would only indicate how each 
candidate would attempt to tackle these is- 
sues. It would be agreed that every person 
runn-ng for office would have different views 
on how to solve Uie issues but which method 
or methods work can only be determined 
after the officer is elected. 

Once again, congratulations to Jan Johns- 
ton and Tom Somers. 

Sincerely heated in debate, 
DICK MEARS 

Survey Planned 

The Archaeological Laboratory at Clarion 
has begun a site survey in the Brookville- 
Sigel-Fjsher area covering portions of Clarion 
and Jefferson counties hitherto not investi- 
gated by professional archaeologists, accord- 
ing to Dr. Gustav A. Konit^ky, director of 
Clarion'^ archaeological field programs. 

Setting forth the objective of the survey 
as that of obtaining information on site lo- 
cation, distribution and types of prehistoric 
sit«s present in the area, Konitzky has cho- 
sen Donn Evans of Brookville to act as field 
assistant in the project. 

"Site surveys of this kind are the first 
step in any archaeological investigation," 
Konitzky said. 

"Such projects cannot be done without tlie 
help of local residents because interested lay- 
men such as local history buffs and amateur 
collectors have a wealth of information to 
contribuie to such an unde. taking. ' 

Residents wishing to assist in this project 
may either contact Dr.- Konitzky in Old Sci- 
ence or Mr. Evaa^ in Brookville.

New Proposals Include Sections 
On Student Publication Procedures 



Editors Note: Tie following article is se- 
cnnd in a series based on the two proposals 
for student rights which is now under con- 
sideration by several special committees. 

By ED WOZNIAK 

Contained in the document, "A Pap'r on 
Proposed Academic Freedom For Students 
at Clarion State College, " is a section de- 
voted to procedures concerning student publi- 
cations. This section, article G. established 
rules and guidelines for the Clarion Call, 
the Scquelle, and any other publication in 
which Clarion students arc in part or wholly 
involved. 

Section G.l of artic'o G is oniiro'y devoto«l 
to the Clarion Call. This section states, "... 
The Clarion Call is a' student newspaper 
whose tone and content are determined by 
the student editorial staff." Under this sec- 
tion, no student or faculty member, related 
or unrelated to the Clarion Call may exercise 
any veto or censorship jxiwers over the con- 
tent of the Call. 

Article 6 provides for "The Advisery Board 
for the Clarion Call and the Sequelle." This 
"board," comprised of four students appoint 
ed by the president of tlie college and four 
faculty members, will appoint a proiessional 
consultant and a financial consultant to as- 
.sist in advising the Call editorial staff. 

The "board" would also appoint a staff 
advisor to .serve as a profes.sio.ial consultant 
for the editor-in-chief, and v/ould also serve 
to appoint the editor-in-chief of the Call for 
a one-year term. 

Under section 6.1.2.4. of article 6, the edit- 
or-in-chief of the Call must appoint an editor- 
ial board, which will be his staff. This board 
will remain in otiice only as long a.s t.ic- 
tenure of the editor. Yet this board must 



review all applicants who wish to hold the 
position of editor-in-chief, and finally must 
submit a recommendation to the advisory 
board for the Clarion Call and the Sequelle. 

Since article 6 docs not state whether or 
not the incumbent editor-in-chief may peti- 
tion lor the position a second time, the sit- 
uation may exist where the editorial board 
must decide among petitioners for the posi- 
tion of editor-in-chief, one of whom appointed 
them to their editorial board positions. This 
stuation could be prejudicial to the other 
petitioners. 

The editor-in-chief of tl>e Call could, under, 

article 6, be removed Irom the po.sition by 
a majority vote of both the editorial board 
and the advisory board. The reasons for dis- 
missal from the position inu.st not be incon- 
sistent with the provisions of the document. 
The dismissed editor may, if he wishes, ap- 
peal the decision to the .vtudent-lacuity jud- 
iciary. 

i'lii' provisions included in article C for 
the Call puts the responsibility for content 
and toue of the newspaper in the hands of 
the .students. The editor-in-chief and his staff 
are subject to criticism tnd advice by the 
advisory hoard which is composed of an equal 
representation of students and faculty. 

In fact, any student at Clarion State Col- 
lege may express his views or criticisms 
through the Call. Some improvements are 
in order though, before this section can he 
implemented. Some course of action should 
be provided for the student who believes 
that his opinions are t)eing repressed by the 
editorial staif. Some policy .should be es- 
tablished for printing letters to the editor. 
Also, some rules of conduct should Iw formed 
to guide the editor and to advise him when 
he is off-limits. 



Campus Kaleidoscope 



By SHERRY LEHMAN 

The pass-fail system was put into liniited 
effect at Slippery Rock State College last 
week when school officials voted on the pro- 
posed plan which reputedly "provides an 
opportunity for students to assess their own 
interests and abilities as they attempt to 
choose majors by exploring a variety of 
areas of knowledge." (Slippery Rock Rocket, 
February 7, 19S9). The system at Slippery 
Rock is limited in that it allows for a total 
of only 12 hours of pass-fail courses during 
a student's sophomore, junior, and senior 
years. 

iiuuent teaching, required courses, and 
major field courses are excluded from pa,ss- 
faii credit; only free elcctives may be sche- 
duled under this system, and only one pass- 
fail course is permitted per semester. Full 
credit is given if a student averages a "D" 
or better ("P" on a grade sheet), and "F" 
if the average is below passing. 

At Temple, an experimental full pass-fail 
system was begun last semester in the Col- 
lege of Liberal Arts. The EP&P (Educational 
Policies and Planning) Committee of the 
faculty senate is looking into the pos.sibilities 
of instituting the system in other colleges of 
the university complex. The system has many 
drawbacks, but in general, the lessening of 
the pressure of tirade achievement on stu- 
dents has proved beneficial to freer studies. 

Here's something interesting from the Spec- 
tator of Edinboro State College: their elec- 
tions for student government president are 
being held this week, like ours. The differ- 
ence, though, is the fantastic overall interest 
of Edinboro students, something sorrowiully 
lacking here at CSC. First of all, Edinboro 
has a primary election of candidates chosen 



by the election committee and voted upon by 
•the student body No inl'irost lik« that horo, 
it seems. 

The candidates running for the presidency 
must have an overall average of 2.5, and 
hold membership in the junior class. After 
the decision upon candidates by the students, 
various ciuestions were posed to the "presi- 
dential hopefuls," which they responded to 
through the paper. Questions ranged from 
the subjects of the newly-revised constitution 
and student funds to the role of the facult" 
senate in campus policies and the choice of 
representatives to the student senate. A col- 
umn dealing with the major goals of each 
candidate was also "published. 

I'm trying to illuminate the vast differences 
between the student interest here at Clarion, 
and that of other colleges with a student body 
just as small as our ov.n. Our candor) ii's 
101 ejection will also have their platforms 
published in the paper, just as the candi- 
dates at Edinboro. But what is lacking is 
the su{ port, or non-support, and the total 
involvement, of the students destined to be 
presided over, and represented by these cho- 
sen candidates. To have an effective and 
ef'icient student government at any college, 
the students themselves must take an interest 
in the issues in question at the time of the 
election, and those issues which will affect 
the future of their institution, before they 
make as important a decision as the election 
of a senate president. 

I'm afraid I can state with near-certain- 
ty that Clarion administrators have little to 
fear from student unrest erupting here on 
our campus. The students are so apathetic 
that even the chance of bettering themselves, 
the college, and the community has little or 
no appeal. They just aren't interested.

THREE COMPETE FOR PRESIDENCY 



Nominees Present Platforms for Senate Offices^ 
Many Changes Anticipated for Coming Year 
In Registration^ Housings Student Rights 



I 



Editor's Note: The candidates for presi- 
dent and vice president of Student Senate 
have submitted their platform statements 
to the Call to help students better eval- 
uate their qualification!). The following sec- 
Uun has tuerefore been devoted to these 
candidates. 

PLATFORM OF JAN JOHNSTON 

My decision to run for president of Student 
Senate is based on solid considered reasons. 
The various problems of CSC are apparent 
to most of us. Equally apparent is the need 
to focus our collective attention towards these 
problems in an effort to effect rapid, judi- 
cious remedies. 

The president of Student Senate is in one 
of the most obvious and most immediate 
positions to present the problems and any 
proposed solutions to both the administrative 
and student bodies. I feel qualified to hold 
so responsible a position. 

I am capable of dealing with the duties the 
position carries with it. I plan to work hard 
to make an honest, conscientious effort to 
do the best job I can on your behalf. I 
will try to be fair and listen to all sides of 
any situation that may arise b,ifore making 
any .decisions, but I will maka my own de- 
cisions. My primary goal is to better tlie 
pathway of communications between students 
and administration. 

PLATFORM OF THOMAS W. SOMERS 

I, Thomas W. Somers, am running for the 
office of president of the Student Senate. 
I personally feel that I am qualified for 
this position because I have a basic under- 
standmg of government, and I have many 
ideas for change on this campus. 

First, I want to see a new Student Govern- 
ment Constitution. For the last two years 
the members of the Association of Inter- 
Collegiate Government have been working 
on a new constitution, and I promise to 
personally push for completion of this con- 
stitution. Personally, I feel that this is an 
extremely long time to spend on a consti- 
tution, when it didn't even take Thomas 
Jefferson two years to write the Constitution 
of the United States. 

Second, students have been complaining 
about an inadequate social program. The 
basic problem that I have found is that it 
is impossible for the sc5cial committee to 
onduct an adequate social program on $22,- 
OJO. I would like to see a much larger social 
budget for our $25.00 so that we can have 
a more adequate social program on this 
campus. 

Copies and Reports 

Third, the recent articles in the Call have 
discussed proposed academic freedoms and 
judiciary process coming from the Dean of 
Students Affairs department. I see nothing 
wrong with the basic ideas coming from 
them, but I do feel that it is extremely 
important that all major student organiza- 
tions receive copies of this. They then can 
also study it and make their recom men- 
tions and any changes they feel necessary 
before it goes into eff-ict. 

Fourth, this semester a new system has 
been initiated at the dining hall. Many stu- 
dents have complained about this system. 
At present, the committee of Food and Din- 
ing is investigating the possibility of possible 
changes in the dining hall. I promise to 
request weekly reports from this and all 
other committees under Senate, so that I 
know exactly what every committee is doing. 

Registration Committees 

Fifth, at present, many students are un- 
happy about the present housing regulations. 
Senior and junior women ask why men in 
these same classes are allowed to live off 
campus, and they are not. They have an 
excellent point; there is no reason why they 
should not be able to live off campus. If 
they go through the correct ways and means, 
there should be no reason why possible chan- 
ges could not be made. 

Sixth, last but not of any least importance, 
is the present system of registration. AU 
students are sick and tired of waiting in 
lines for hours and hours and then having to 
run from building to building to have changes 
made. President Paolino has recently set up 
a committee to work with the academic 
deans to come up with possible changes in the 
present registration procedure. I promise to 
follow up on any possible reports of pro- 
gress made by this committee. 

I promise to work to the complete extent 
of my power to make a more effective and 
more representative student government. I, 
Thomas W. Somers, do hereby promise 
to work to the extent of my abiUty if elected 
to serve the students of Clarion State College. 

PLATFORM OF RAY YUTZY 

IThe office of president of Student Senate 
is the most important student office on this 
campus. The president must try to reflect 
the attitudes and ideas of the student body 
if he is fulfilling the responsibilities of his 
position. To be able to facilitate the function- 
^ ing of Student Senate and, the adoption of 
-ff new programs, the Student Senate president 
' must have experience in the workings of 
} Student Senate and the functioning of Stu- 
dent Government as a whole. 

T have such experience. I am currently 
serving my second term on the Student As- 



'f 



' Experienced 

sociation Constitutional Committee, which is 
rewriting the Student Association Constitu- 
tion. The Student Senate is the legislative 
and executive body of the Student Associa- 
tion. While on this committee, I have also 
been working with certain proposals pertain- 
ing to Student Judiciary and Student Acade- 
mic Rights and Freedoms. 

I am finishing my second term as Chair- 
man of the Intercollegiate Conference on Gov- 
ernment. While in I.C.G. I have served as 
vice regional director for Northwestern Penn- 
sylvania, on the State Executive Committee, 
and as parliamentarian to the 1968 I.C.G. 
State Convention, in addition to the offices 
of executive council and treasurer at Clarion. 

Definite Coals 

During the Spring of 1968, I served as a 
designer and consultant on the renovation 
of Harvey Gymnasium for the Student Union. 
In this project I worked with and later served 
on the Student Union Board. 

In addition to having a background in Stu- 
dent Government, the president must also 
have definite programs and goals he should 
be leading the Student Senate toward. The 
background is necessary because you obvi- 
ously need to know where you are before 
you know where you are going. 

If the student election is going to be more 
than a popularity contest then the candidates 
must provide the sudents with platforms so 
the students have something to base their 
votes upon. Everyone, I hope, would assume 
that the president would try and do his best, 
but if the president is to have an active 
part, not merely react, then he must have 
certain goals in mind. The following are the 
goals and their explanations and possibilities 
for implementation that I would be working 
for, if elected. 

'Arena' Style Pre-Registration 

The registration system, as everyone 
knows, is badly in need of revision. Knowing 
the complexities of this problem I began 
by visiting Dean Moore, Dean Still, and Mr. 
Vallosio of the Business office. I found that 
these men are aware of the problem and 
would be more than willing to work with 
a Student Committee on this matter. 

We discussed the idea of using a mail 
system for registration, and I found that 
they used such a system for student teachers 
last fall. Since they have previously attempt- 
ed this on a small scale it probably would 
not be overly difficult to adapt it for general 
use for all students. Another facet of regis- 
tration we discussed was the possibility of 
an "arena" style pre-registration. Under this 
system when you pre-register in addition to 
picking the course, you also pick the time 
and the professor. This would be based on 
a seniority system with seniors having the 
first chance. Juniors the next, etc. The sen- 
iority system is fair since seniors need cer- 
tain courses to graduate and these upper 
level courses tend to have only one section. 
While the lower numbered courses freshmen 
and sophomores take tend to have more sec- 
tions. The one possible objection to this sys- 
tem is that certain faculty would have few or 
no students in their sections. My reply is 
that perhaps these few faculty should attempt 
to make their classes more interesting and 
more relevant to the students. 

One thing that would help provide a func- 
tional basis for choices of professors in the 
'arena system" would be the adaptation of 
a system of faculty evaluation by the stu- 
dents. This is currently recognized as a legi- 
timate academic right in such schools as 
Pitt, Youngstown University, and Gannon Col- 
lege. The results of this evaluation would 
be published and would be a valid basis 
for choosing professors under a new regis- 
tration procedure. This evaluation would also 
express the student's opinion concerning pro- 
bationary faculty on matters of tenure. 

Need for Judiciary 

How often do you see the need for a Stu- 
dent Judiciary? Enough to keep the multi- 
ple judiciary proposed by the Dean of Stu- 
dents office occupied? We definitely need a 
judiciary, but I would question the function- 
ality of many more than one. The judiciary 
is a safeguard that needs to exist, but which 
will set idle most of the time. We should 
be careful in constructing a judiciary that 
we don't over-organize it. A judiciary will 
function quickest and best when there is a 
minimum of organization. Some of the pro- 
posals of the judicial committee, appointed 
by Dr. Gemmell and chaired by Dr. Har- 
mon, have made more sense than the best 
parts of all other proposals combined. An- 
other possibility in this area is the imple- 
mentation of an "ombudsman," a person giv- 
en the job of looking out for student interest 
in conflict over college policy. This entire 
area of judiciary is still in need of much 
study and discussion and I shall be interested 
in hearing the report on the presidential 
committee and any student opinion. 

Another major area of student government 
is that of finances and budget. The budget 
this year is in need of careful consideration 
for we are faced with the problem of limited 
funds and increasuig allocation requests. The 
social committee definitely needs more mon- 
ey. They should be commended for what 
they have accomplished with such limited 
funds. One-eighth of the budget went for en- 
tertainment at Clarion while at other schools 



as high as one-fifth to one-quarter of the 
budget is used for entertainment. If we are 
to continue to have Friday night dances and 
especially if there is to be any hope for big- 
name entertainment and an increased variety 
of entertainment, then the budget will have 
to be reallocated. 

Books Overcharged 

The College Bookstore is another area that 
I have received requests to investigate. The 
prices seem to keep rising. One student re- 
ported to me that he found Pitt charges 
$6.9.5 for the same book for which Clarion 
charges $8.95. Another student reported that 
he previously worked in the bookstore and 
when unpacking cases of new books, he had 
seen the publisher's suggested price, always 
$1.00 to $2.00 lower than the price used at 
the bookstore. It has been suggested that 
the possible solution to this problem would 
lie in the establishment of a student co-oper- 
ative to manage the bookstore, which has 
resulted m a 10 to 15 percent savings for 
the students, at other campuses. As I see 
it this problem needs some extensive inves- 
tigating. 

While visiting Forest Manor I was ques- 
tioned about the possibility of arranging 
transportation for these off-campus dorms. 
Since 1 knew the college currently has a bus 
that it is not u.sing extensively, I took this 
proposal to Mr. Gleixner, personnel director 
for the college. As a result Mr. Gleixner 
is currently negotiating with Harrisburg to 
arrange for bus transportation to off-campus 
dorms: Forest Manor, Elk Hall, Jefferson 
Hall, and McKean Hall. The bus would make 
scheduled runs to all dorms off-campus be- 
fore classes start each hour. The bus would 
also make return trips to deliver students 
back to their dorms after each class. I'm 
sure that the institution of such a system 
would be of great benefit to all students 
currently penalized to long cold walks by 
living in off-campus dorms. 

New Constitution 

The student government is in need of revi- 
sion from Constitution on down. I have been 
working on the Student Association Consti- 
tution for over a year and have seen many 
of the problems connected with the current 
constitution. Under a new constitution the 
make-up of the Senate would be revised. One 
plan would have 21 members: a president, 
a vice president, each of the four class pre- 
sidents, ten senators at large, and a senator 
appointed to senate by each of the following: 
I.F.C., Pan-Hellenic Council, Day Students 
Association, Association of Women Students, 
and Men's Inter-Hall Council. There are ad- 
vantages and disadvantages to all systems, 
but this seems to be one of the best. 

The second area of revision would be the 
committee structure. Currently no one .seems 
to know just how many committees there 
are or just what they should be doing. In 
fact. Senate never seems to abolish any com- 
mittees, so there might be some hanging 
around since who knows when. A new pro- 
posal is for four standing committees. 

The first is the Student Union Committee, 
which would be in charge of the Student 
Union, social affairs and entertainment, cul- 
tural affairs, and would correlate the college 
activities calendar to provide for a more 
even distribution of events. 

The second is the Finance Committee, 
which would review all allocations requests 
and make recommendations on expenditures 
to Student Senate. 

The third committee is a judiciary commit- 
tee. It would set policy concerning the func- 
tioning of the student judiciary, make recom- 
mendations concerning the passing of regu- 
lations, and would also serve as the actual 
student court. This committee would consist 
of two senators at large, and one representa- 
tive from each of the following: I.F.C., Pan- 
Hellenic Council, Day Students Association, 
Association of Women Students, and Men's 
Inter-Hall Council, plus two faculty members 
would set on the court. Therefore the group 
that recommends the rules would have the 
responsibility of enforcing and interpreting 
them. 

Four Standing Committeeg 

The fourth committee is the student affairs 
committee, which would be concerned with: 
food and dining hall, housing and dormitories, 
elections, publications, and any other contin- 
uing problems. 

In addition to the four standing committees 
there would be special committees appointed 
for specific purposes, and disbanded when 
those purposes are accomplished. An example 
of these special committees would be: Regis- 
tration Procedure Committee, the Booksto'fe 
Committee, etc. One of the most impor- 
tant things about all of these committees, 
standing, or special, is tliat they shaU be 
chaired by a senator and shall consist of 
any student who volunteers his or her ser- 
vices. This would give any interested student 
a chance to serve on any committee and 
have a direct influence on matters that per- 
tain to college life. 

It has also been suggested that Clarion 
initiate a "blue paper file." This is a file con- 
taining all the tests and quizzes given by 
each professor, other than final examinations. 
This would be of benefit to the students in 
that they would be able to see the type 
of tests a professor gives, therefore enabling 
students to study more effectively. 



The final plank in my platform for reform, 
if I am elected, deals with the Student Sen- 
ate's lack of an attempt to communicate 
its actions to the student body. In order 
to get students involved in student govern- 
ment they have to be aware, first that there 
is a government and second, that they know 
what is happening in this student govern- 
ment. There should be a weekly report, in 
the Call of what Student Senate is doing, 
what it has passed, what it is planning, and 
how it is spending our money. In the past 
guests have not been especially welcome in 
Senate meetings and are rarely allowed to 
speak before Senate. Under my program for 
reform of Student Government, students 
would be able to take direct action and re- 
sponsibilities in governing. Then and only then 
is this truly a student government. 

If I am elected president of the Student 
Senate I will do my best to bring student 
government into the 20th century. I wiU try 
to the best of my abilities to represent all 
students in all cases and to implement the 
programs I have outlined above. 

PLATFORM OF WILLIAM T. NANOVSKY 

I, William T. Nanovsky, am runnin'^ for 
the office of vice-president of the Student 
Senate. I am writing this letter to express my 
purposes for running and stating my ideas 
for an effective and representative Student 
Government. 

I feel that there are many changes neces- 
sary at Clarion State College. The present 
Student Senate has initiated a start in change 
in housing regulations for men and women 
and in a new typfe of registration. Requests 
have been made to both Men's Inter-Hall 
Council and Women's Residence Board to 
investigate the possibility of allowing sopho- 
more men and sophomore, junior, and 
senior women to live in off-campus housing. 
Another committee was recently set up to 
discuss with the Academic Deans needed 
changes in registration procedures. 

As your Vice-President, I will urge these 
two committees to work diligently toward 
reasonable and workable solutions lor these 
two problems. 

Representative Student 

Government 

At this time the presidents of tlie various 
classes are just figureheads. I feel that 
by placing these class leaders on the Stu- 
dent Senate, we will bring more importance 
and significance to the office of class presi- 
dent and also have a more representative 
student government. 

At present the student body is complaining 
about the new system at the dining hall, 
with its long lines and its new meal tickets. 
Last semester a Food and Dining Committee 
was set up and I will work closely with 
this committee in an effort to remedy the 
present situation. 

I promise that if elected to the position 
of Vice-President of the Student Senate I 
will work to the fullest extent of my ability 
to serve and represent the student body of 
Clarion State College. 

PLATFORM OF DAN RANIERI 

The revolution is upon us. There have been 
student riots on campus after campus. I nei- 
ther support nor condemn them. I merely 
note that they are sustained and nourished 
by contemporary college students who are 
engaged in a profound examination of the 
political, moral and economic bases of our 
society and of the part education plays in 
supporting these bases. Clarion cannot ignore 
the vital issues of the day. The institutions 
of student government MUST become involv- 
ed in an examination of these problems. 

If I am elected to the vice presidency 
of the Student Senate I shall urge my collea- 
gues to examine EVERY aspect of life at Cla- 
rion. No area shall be sacrosanct. Student- 
faculty relations, faculty tenure policy, staff 
recruitment, sexual mores, library book ac- 
quisitions, course offerings and evaluations, 
aU aspects of administration, indeed the total 
aspect of academit life can and must in- 
volve student participation and direction. I 
shall urge the Student Senate to direct its 
attention to all these areas. 

The American academic scene has sown 
the wind; it may reap the whirlwind. Let 
tlu>se who consider my proposals radical pon- 
der this. 

This is my platform and on it I rest my 
case. If you agree with me write in DAN 
RANIERI for vice president. Remember, you 
must write in my name because it does not 
appear on the ballot. There is another name 
on the ballot for vice president. Ignore it 
and write in Dan Ranieri for vice president 
of the Student Senate.

AT THE MOVIES 

In Review- 'Bullitt' 

By JOHN MATVIKO 

You're going to produce a detective story. 
First you'll need an honest, individualistic 
cop. Then he will need a case— how about 
a seemingly unsolvable murder? Add some 
suspence — he must solve the case in order 
to continue his career. And how about a 
love interest? Add a beautiful girlfriend who 
wants him to quit and do something more 
respectable. Oh yes, don't forget the nasty 
politician who is only after his own glory. 
Sounds familiar, doesn't it? Like an old Bo- 
gart movie that you've seen on the late show? 
Like last year's Sinatra picture, called appro- 
priately "The Detective?" Wrong both times, 
it's "Bullitt" directed by Peter Yates. 

With all of this going for him, you would 
think that Yates couldn't miss making a dull, 
cliche-ridden movie. "Bullitt," however, is 
quite a surprise— it's the best of its kind 
since "Harper." 

Yates does have several things going for 
him. First, he has Steve McQueen doing an 
excellent job as the tough detective. Mc- 
Queen, who has been quite selective in choos- 
ing his roles, seems to have found a part 
that suits his image very well. 

Yates also has a screenplay that seems 
to correspond with the way our society would 
like a detective to act— dedicated, honest, 
and yet tough. In addition, the script is not 
ladened with the cliches tliat usually accom- 
pany such films. 

Finally, Yates has William Fraker on pho- 
tography. Fraker does an excellent job 
throughout the picture. Specifically, the chase 
scene has some of the best camera work 
that Hollywood has produced in recent years. 

The movie is not without flaws. At times 
the plot seems unrealistic. For instance, 
would a good police force allow an informer 
to be guarded in a two-bit hotel by only 
two policemen? It seems a bit implausible. 
Also, the part of Bullitt's girlfriend appears 
to have been added merely to give Jacqueline 
Bisset some film exposure. Most of her se- 
quences could have easily been cut without 
much loss of continuity. 

"Bullitt," despite some flaws in plot, comes 
through as an exciting look at a big-city 
detective.

Changes Made 

Second semester brought a change in the 
House Council at Montgomery Hall. Maurice 
Warrick was elected by the dorm residents 
to preside over the council when former pre- 
sident Harry Hont became a resident assis- 
tant. 

During this semester, House Council has 
furnished games for recreation in the lobby 
and is currently looking for a refrigerator 
for use by the dorm students. 

Dane©!!, an open house, and another tea 
for the deans are activities currently being 
planned by the social chairman, Judy Wilson. 

Also on the agenda are plans for repealing 
the rules concerning dress in the cafeteria. 



Is it true that the snack bar lacks effi- 
ciency? One instructor wailed 20 minutes for 
a fried ham and cheese and a coke.

HE HIND THE IRON CURTAIN 



Rohhe Tours Yugoslavia^ Poland^ Hungary and Other 
Communist Countries of Eastern Europe; Encounters 
Difficulties; Calls United States "Garden of Eden 



Headstart Program Aids Children 
h Clarior) and Jefferson Counties 



By CHARLES W. ROBBE 

Assistant Professor, Social Studies 

"That cannot be," I exclaimed audibly in 
the tcrniinai bus fjoinq from the International 
Airport to Jk'l^jrade (Beosrad. there). I heard 
tl)e Laura's Theme from Doctor Zhivago 
broadcast in the airport bus. 

But it was. What I could not hear in the 
Soviet I'liion, I did hear in Yugoslavia. 

Recently, I had decided to rest, recuperate 
from the exertions and dangers of the vola- 
tile and explosive Asian countries by dropping 
down behind the Iron Curtain once more 
to observe life and the marketplace in four 
Communist countries of Eastern Eur- 
ope. However, in my fir:,t selection, I had 
decided not to go to the Adriatic cities and 
beach resorts but to concentrate on two inter- 
nal areas, the city of Belgrade and several 
miles away the prehistoric fortress and park 
of Kalme^dan. 

The southern ramparts of this ancient for- 
tress contain the more modern Military Mus- 
eum rooms and halls for the exhibits of the 
Yugoslav People's Army. This museum, 
which includes the underground casements, 
the second meat, and the main building, col- 
lects and studies and exhibits war objects 
and military hardware illustrative of the his- 
tory of the Yugoslav peoples. In this collec- 
tion are 15,000 weapons, uniforms, flags, 35,- 
000 photographs, and 43 albums. Several 
rooms have rcprescntatations of the South 
Slavs there and in other geographical areas 
of the Balkans. Other halls present the chang- 
ing situations of the Yugoslav peoples up 
to and beyond the arrival of the Turks. 

From this higher elevation point Kalmeg- 
dan, this Beograd Fort, can be seen and 
enjoyed the most attractive, the most beauti- 
ful panorama on this earth — the confluence 
of the Sava and the Danube (Dunav, there). 
To see this juncture of the two rivers from 
the terrace of the Fort is more than worth 
tiie effort and the cost alone of a study 
trip. 

Ill IJelgrade and New Belgra«le 

In Belgrade and Now Bolgrade (in the var- 
ious languages used there, Nuova Belgrado, 
Neu Beograd, Novi Beograd, Belgrado, Nou- 
veau Beograd) besides the new apartment 
buildings are the rather fi.mou« department 
stores and exclusive shops. Leather goods, 
jewelry and gold, silver products, national 
handicrafts, glassware, and shoes are fea- 
i "res in the market. 

Prices are fixed prices, except for some 
variation in widely scattered shops. The ex- 
change rate stays around 12 and one-half 
dinars to the United States dollar. (One 
French franc equals 2.53 ulnars; IDM equals 
3.12 new dinars; 100 Italian lire equals two 
new dinars; one English pound in 1987 could 
bo exchanged for 35 new dinars.) 

This federation of six republics made up 
of Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, Macedonia, Mon- 
tenegro, and historic Bosnia-Hercezovina is 
known officially as the Sccialist Federal Re- 
public of Yugoslavia, \yith a population of 
19 millions on an area of nearly 99,000 square 
miles, Yugoslavia is the largest Balkan coun- 
try. 

Only Aiiicrican on Plane 

Continuing my exploration of and exper- 
iences in the Communist countries, I took 
flight on a Communist plane and flew to 
Warsaw's Airport. I was the only American. 
Scandinavians were made very welcome and 
so was an Italian salesman representing a 
business concern in the United States of Am- 
erica. As my five pieces of baggage were 
rolled into the custom's inspection room, I 
lined up with the rest of these arrivals to 
go by the Immigration Officials. Upon ex- 
amining my passport the head officer turned 
to mo and said, "Step aside." I asked why. 
Again he said, "Step aside." 

So I did. 

Thereupon two Polish Government officers 
and two policewomen came to me and bom- 
barded me with questions faster than I could 
answer them. 

"Why did you come here? 

Who invited you hero, anyway? 

Where is your visa? 

Why did you not get the visa in New York? 

Why did you not goi the visa at the Polish 
lOmbassy in Beograd? 

Why didn't you want 'o be screened earlier? 

Why didn't you want to be approved ear- 
lur?" 

Donicd Entrance 

My answers were not good enough. I fur- 
ther explained I already had a reservation 
at the Red Star Hotel in Warsaw and further- 
more I should be taken at once to a hospital 
since I had injured my ankle. (Anything to 
get into Warsaw — Warszawa — on the Vistula 
with its million inhabitants!) 

The Immigration Court v/ent into operation. 
One hour later came the verdict. It was 
rnnounced directly and brusquely. "You are 
r.it permitted to enter Warsaw. You will 
hc've to leave tliis airport on the next plane. 
Where were you planning to go next?" 

"Jo Budapest." 

Quite ungraciou.sly the Head of the PoUce 
:'eclarcd "There is a plane going out of here 
lor Hungary tonight. You wUl be placed on 
th:* plane. Budapest will let you enter there." 

..t tliis I became very angry. I knew I 



was being "picked on." My disappointment 
was very keen with the realization of the 
extra effort, additional time, increasing ex- 
pcn.sc I had u.sed to get that close. (It wasn't 
until sometime later that I realized the dan- 
gerous situation in which I had got myself.) 
Anyway, I started undignified shouting, try- 
ing to make fun of the officials, using my 
attempt at sarcasm to do so. 

"I am a very dangerous person. 

I am an American citizen. 

I am a professor of history. 

I have many Polish friends back in Chi 
cago. They won't like .his. 

We buy your Polish hams. We won't buy 
them any more." And so on and on. The 
policewomen and customs officials ignored 
me, refused to talk to me as I continued 
to demand my passport and ask for my 
baggage. But not the Polish people. Several 
Polish men wore startled looks of anxiety 
at the uproar at the Custom's Entrance. Two 
took out cigarettes, lit them, and smoked 
them furiously. Then, one at a time each 
came over to me and shoved a cigarette 
into my mouth by turn. This shut me up, 
of course. 

Baggage Held 

1 was held incommunicado in a comer 
of an adjoining building the rest of that day 
and into the evening. That night two members 
of the PoUsh State PoUce, two policewomen, 
and two stewardesses marched me across 
the parade ground to the jet. My passport 
was handed to me just as I stepped on the 
platform leading to the plane— but not my 
baggage. My suitcase, laundry box, two flight 
bags, and my briefcase (containing for me) 
several thousand dollars worth of history and 
economic notes for lectures and speeches 
were all sealed for "protection" back in the 
Polish Customs Office. I was physically shov- 
ed out of Poland without my clothes, no 
American first-aid medicines, and not even 
shaving suppUes. 

If one were to generalize somewhat, at 
least up to this point, he could say that 
as long as one can follow strictly the routine 
laid out, he is "reasonably safe." The slight- 
est deviation, however, brings trouble, real 
trouble. 

Arriving at the Budapest International Air- 
port quite late— micnight— brought unexpect- 
ed problems: no hotel, no hotel reservation 
for me for another week, city hotels all still 
filled following the celebrations of the 50th 
anniversary of the Communist Revolution, 
and tile Airline's City Terminal waiting room 
closed for the night. 

By the judicious use of a huge sum of 
money in this non-capitaUst country, I pre- 
vailed upon the Airport bus driver to keep 
me on his bus — in fact I balked, I refused 
to get off that bus in the dark street — and 
deliver me to the luxurious Red Star Hotel, 
Pest side which I had reason to know was 
filled up, of course, but at which help might 
be available. The night clerk was most ac- 
commodating. He finally located a room for 
me in Buda, the older part of the city west, 
across the Danube. It was a wonderful old 
hotel, the Veros Csillag, in a western suburb 
on top of a ski mountain. 

Power of Stamp 

Each day I would take a taxi down this 
mountain through the residential and business 
part of Buda, cross the Danube, through the 
more modern part. Pest with its factory 
chimneys smoking, then over a dozen miles 
of plains to the Airport, to see whether the 
Hungarian authorities had been successful 
in prevailing upon the Polish authorities to 
relea.se and forward my baggage. Finally, 
several days later they were all smiles 
►-mostly women and girls worked there — for 
my baggage had arrived intact still sealed 
with twine and lead. The male customs offi- 
cer waved me and my baggage through— I 
.did not have to open any piece of luggage. 

A few points are now needed. Occupying 
an area slightly over 120 thousand square 
miles, with a population above 31 millions, 
Poland is the largest European country in 
the SoA'iet orbit. The people are Roman Cath- 
olic; the Communist Party Government is 
atheistic. This latter group is known as the 
PoUsh United Workers Party. 

I now raise the question "What is the power 
of a postage stamp?" In 1966 the Post Office 
Department of the United States of America 
issued a stamp recognizing the 1,000 years 
of Polish history, art, and religion. On this 
stamp was the picture of the Cross. The Pol- 
ish Communist government never forgave the 
people and government of America for issu- 
ing and ushig this postage stamp! 

From ziotys in Poland (24 to U.S. $1) we 
go to the beautiful artistic paper money of 
Hungary, the Forint. The Magyar Nemzetio 
Bank issues a note in 20 forints denomina- 
tion, which is valued just under a United 
States dollar. 

Gultnral Appeal 

In Hungary one has fun. The girls are beau- 
tiful and the men are gallant and the good 
food is inescapable. After my visa ran out, 
I stayed an extra day, witlu>ut remembering 
to report it. The Communist authorities 
caught it, however, and hailed me into Court 
where I was fined ,$9.35. I have always been 
lucky that way. 

This time in this country I enjoyed the ar- 
chitecture of the museums and castles (and 




CHARLES W. ROBBE 

the scenery) on the outside. On the inside 
1 enjoyed the food: Guylas (the goulash, of 
course); Esterhazy rostelyos (braised steak); 
baramy porkolt (lamb steaks in gravy); and 
schnitzel, of course. Bottled mmeral waters 
are available, as well as local wines, Tokay, 
especially. The dobos torta is a desert, a 
cake of chocolate and layers. 

This land-locked country of east-central 
Europe, this early outpost of Western Chris- 
tendom, known as a people's republic, has 
a government reconstituted after the 1956 now 
named the "Hungarian Socialist Worker's 
Party" with a claimed membership of about 
half a million as late as 1963. 

And, now, on to one of the heartaches 
of the world and to Pennsylvanians particu- 
larly, Czechoslovakia. The sojourner, today, 
goes at once to Prague (Praha, there), the 
city of "golden spires and gilded steeples," 
of the old events in the Bohemian Museum, 
of the new in St. Wenceslas Square. Compos- 
ers and symphonies, tanks and lights all 
have made and left their marks. Even the 
bridges of Prague (there they are also called 
Prager Brucken and Ponts de Prague) are 
noteworthy for being built over the Moldau 
River (also called Vltava). 

Difficulties in Prague 

Again, without a room reservation I ar- 
rived at the Hotel of my choice — Europa. 
Here, several incidents indicate the develop- 
ing temper anc attitude ir. the city and coun- 
tryside. When I asked for a room, the clerk, 
almost elderly, hesitated, saying, since it was 
early in the day, she didn't think she'd have 
a room. I told her she should find me a 
room since I had waited 20 years to get 
into Prague. She looked me straight in the 
eyes and responded, "I have waited 30 years 
to get out." 

Then I tried another tack. I reminded her 
that I should have a good room since, also, 
I had come from Pennsylvania. Immediately 
she Was puzzled. Seeing the inquiring look 
on her face, I hastened to remind her that 
Czechoslovakia was actually bom on the soil 
of Pennsylvania at the close of the First 
World War. Meetings had certainly taken 
place in Pittsburgh by Czechs and Slovaks 
hammering and welding their country toge- 
ther. Then this clerk statca she remembered 
her mother had told her of Pennsylvania's 
part. 

I got the room. 

Later, in the dining foom, I called for 
(Russian) borsch. The waiter looked me 
straight in the eyes and declared emphatical- 
ly, "There is no borsch here." 

Czechoslovakia is another land-locked co|un- 
try bounded clockwi.se by East Germany, 
Poland, the Soviet Union, Hungary, Austria, 
and West Germany. Ostrava (also called Mor- 
avska Ostrava)" with a population of 265,000 
is called this country's Pittsburgh. In this 
Communist-ruled republic 14 million people 
live, of which two-thirds are Czechs, 28 per- 
cent are Slovaks. Germans, Poles, Ruthen- 
ians, and Hungarians make up the remaining 
part. Constitutionally, Czechoslovakia is cal- 
led a Socialist Republic there. 

Joyful Return 

It was with great regret that I left Pra- 
gue but it was with joy in my heart that 
I turned my eyes to the plane that was to 
take me to Schiphol, Netherland's great air- 
port, just a few miles outside of the city 
of Amsterdam to the free world, my world, 
and on to the new Garden of Eden, which 
is Northwestern Pennsylvania. 

Mr. Charles W. Robbe, assistant professor 
of social studies, has earned recognition and 
honors as a world traveler and speciahst 
in Egyptian culture, Asian issues, and Euro- 
pean problems. 

In 1959 and 1960, Mr. Roblw directed "The 
Culture of Europe" tours abroad; attended 
seminars in England, Holland, Switzerland, 
and France; and made extensive sun^eys 
and observations of economic and political 



99 



problems. During the pest 10 years, Mr. 
Robbe has been instrumental along with Dr. 
Paul G. Chandler, president-emeritus, Dean 
lames Moore, and Dr. James C. King Ui 
establishing the Asian history program at 
Clarion. 

In addition to his teaching, Professor Robbe 
has appeared before many civic and church 
groups where his knowledge and experience 
have made him one of the most interesting 
and popular speakers. 



January Graduates 
Accept Positions 

Of the 153 Clarion State graduates in teach- 
er education in January, approximately 72 
perecnt have indicated tiiat they have accept- 
ed positions or that they do not need help 
in securing a position. Probably the one pre- 
vailing reason why the percentage is not 
higlier, even at this time, is because those 
who haven't accepted po.sitions have placed 
a geographical preference as a limitation. 

The second greatest percentage of place- 
ments occurred in social studies, where all 
but one-eighth of the graduates have found 
jobs. Elementary education graduates ranked 
third with only one-sixth unable to find work. 
All but two of the mathematics majors who 
graduated in January are employed. 

Approximately 50 percent of the former 
Ubrary science and Spanish graduates have 
found positions. Only one of the four science 
majors is at present jobless while two-thirds 
of the January graduates in speech pathology 
and audiology, speech, and French are seek- 
ing employment. Thirty-three and a third 
percent of both the English and geography 
graduates have been unable to find satisfac- 
tory positions. 

According to statistics released by the 
placement office, those January graduates 
who received degrees in special education, 
biology, and Russian had the least difficulty 
in attaining work. Tlie solitary graduate with 
a degree in German could not find a suitable 
position.

By ANN ROHRBAUGH 

"I have been able to see changes in their 
communication skills and in their interac- 
tions with each other since I began work- 
ing with the program ill November." This 
is the conclusion of Mr. John Boylan, co- 
ordmator of the Headstart program for 
Clarion and Jefferson Counties. 

The Headstart program was begun in 
these two counties in the fall of 1965. Thirty- 
four pre-school children are involved in the 
program— twenty-three in Clarion at the Unit- 
ed Presbyterian Church and eleven are en- 
rolled at Punxsutawney, the center for Jef- 
ferson County. 

Children enrolled in the program range 
in age from three to six. The children are 
classified as "poverty children" because of 
their poor home environment. The purpose 
of Headstart is to prepare them for first 
grade so that they are on the same level 
as their peers from a normal environment. 
These small children can be recommended 
for the program by a county health niu-se, 
a school administrator, the department of 
welfare, or various welfare agencies. They 
are usually referred to the Headstart program 
because of a speech difficulty, a learning 
problem, or a poor home environment. 

At the present time the Headstart program 
is financed by a federal grant through the 
Office of Economic Opportunity. Under the 
Nixon administration, however, Mr. Boylan 
said the program may become part of the 
Department of Health, Education, and Wel- 
fare. The success of the program depends 
to some degree upon the community sup- 
port. The United Presbyterian Churches in 
Clarion and in Punxsu*awney have donated 
classroom space, Clarion State has do- 
nated office space in the Special Education 
Building, and various clubs and individuals 
have contributed money v/h:;h lias been used 
to hiiv clothing and Christrnaia gifts for the 
children. 

When the children first come to the center, 
they are often shy and withdrawn. Social 
development is emphasized as well as teach- 
ing various concepts and developing their 
language skills. Educational games teach 
them to identify objects and to recognize dif- 
ferent colors and shapes. Most of these skills 
are taught by repeating a pattern. 

A usual day at the Headstart center be- 
gins at 9 a.m. and ends at 1 p.m. The 
children are divided into two groups so that 
there is one teacher and one aid for every 
twelve students. Various activities are sche- 
duled throurhout the day: free play, morning 
snack, which is often a light breakfast, art, 
stories, exercises, rest period, and lunch. 
Throughout all these activities, certain qua- 
lities are stressed, such as cleanliness, shar- 
ing, and getting along together, which are 
often missing from their home background. 

"Identifying their problems before they get 
to first grade" is another objective of the 
program. This is done by a complete dental 
and medical examination each year, speech 
and hearing tests, and a psychological exami-

nation. Much of this is done through the 
college with the help of special education 
students. Students from C. S. C. have also 
aided the Headstart children through some 
programs which are designed to develop the 
motor ability of the children by teaching 
them such skills as hopping :.Qd jumping 
rope. 

The parents are encouraged to help the 
center whenever possible. Some mothers help 
to supervise the children, some have helped 
to plan parties and soraT parents have helped 
to raise mmiey through bake sales and rum- 
mage sales. 

Through the help of the teachers, the stu- 
dent volunteers, and numerous clubs and 
individuals, the Headstart program has been 
accomplishing its goal cf preparing these 
children for first grade. 



Admissions Closed 
For Fall Semester 



Due to an unprecedented number of appli- 
cations for enrollment at Qarion in Septem- 
ber 1969, Director of Admissions Walter ^. 
Hart has announced that as of Feb. 15 all 
classes will be filled and no new applications 
can be honored. 

In explaining the move. Hart said the ad- 
missions closure also applied to the class 
entering in January 1970, and meant that 
many qualified candidates could not be con- 
sidered much to the regret of the administra- 
tion. 

In order to enhance their opportunity for 
admission in the fall of 1970. Hart encourag- 
ed all present high school juniors to apply as 
early as June 19£9 so that possible notification 
can be made as early as July 1969.

Stiff Competition Expected Next Weekend 
In Pennsylvania Conference Championship 



On Thursday, wrestlers, coaches, 
students, and local fans from 11 state 
colleges will come to Clarion for the 
25th Annual Pennsylvania Conference 
Wrestling Championships, wliich will 
be held in Tippin Gymnasium on Fri- 
day and Saturday, Feb. 28 and March 1. 

According to Neil Turner, assis- 
tant wrestling coach, the state college 
conference is the strongest small col- 
lege conference in the nation. To par- 
ticipate in this tournament is therefore 
important, for here at Clarion State 
will be decided the top state wrestlers 
in each weight class. These winners 
will then represent Pennsylvania and 
their respective schools in the NAIA 
national championships for small col-

nament place winners from Clarion, there 
are 16 wrestlers from other state colleges, 
also place winners last year, who will be 
competing again in this tournament. These 
wrestlers are hoping to repeat or advance 
their positions, ensiuing some spirited com- 
petition. These wrestlers are: 

115 lb. — Thayne Nader of Shippensburg, 
fourth-place winner. 

123 lb.— Ken Melchior of Lock Haven, first- 
place winner last year at 115 pounds, and 
Wayne Hein, Bloomsburg, the second- 
place winner. In a recent dual match, 
Hein lost a close one to Melchior, 11-8. 

130 lb.— Shane Foley of Lock Haven, second- 
place winner who has scored eight faUs 
in his last nine matches. Ron George, 
fourth-place winner from Slippery Rock. 

137 lb.— Ron Russo, Bf^msburg, first-place

den Eagles, 104-99, in a hard-fought court 
struggle. 

Down by 44-41 at halftime, the Eagles were

a tough game to lose because Coach Stan 
Hallman's squad out-rebounded the little 
Scots by 20 rebounds. 

Bill Mitchell, always strong under the 
boards, had 25 rebounds and 21 points in 
the losing cause. Carl Jefferis, a persistent

they will compete with wrestlers from 
such "big name" schools as Michigan 
State, Oklahoma State, University of 
Iowa, and the University of Michigan. 

The importance and pressure of 
this first step toward the national 
championship bouts is great. This state 
tournament is not, primarily, competi- 
tion among 11 schools; it is an elimina- 
tion of individuals in distinct weight 
classes which will determine the best 
wrestlers in the state. 

This year's tournament will pro- 
vide stiff competition among the top 
team contenders — Lock Haven, East 
Stroudsburg, Bloomsburg, Clarion, and 
possibly West Chester. For example, 
last year, Kenny Melchior of Lock 
Haven was the first-place state cham- 
pion at 115 pounds; he also was the 



of injury. 
167 lb.— Jim Owen, Bloomsburg, fourth-place 
winner. 

177 lb.— Allan Detwiler, East Stroudsburg, 
first-place winner. 

191 lb.— Gary Bottinger, Mansfield, third- 
place winner. Glenn Powell, California, 
fourth-place winner. 

Heavyweight — Rich Schumaker, of East 
Stroudsburg, first-place winner and sixth 
in NCAA. Bruce Payer, second-place win- 
ner, wiU compete at 191 pounds. 

1968 Team Tourney Scores 

In the state tournament last year, East 
Stroudsburg, Lock Haven, Bloomsburg and 
Clarion were the top four teams. This year 
the competition is stiff and will provide some 
exciting wrestling for the fans. Team scoring 
last year is as follows: 

1. East Stroudsburg — 100 points 

2. Lock Haven — 92 points 

3. Bloomsburg — 71 points 

4. Clarion — 49 points 

5. California — 25 points 

6. MUlersville — 23 points 

7. Mansfield — 14 points 

8. Shippensburg— 12 points 

9. Edinboro— 10 points 



best 115-pound wrestler in the nation. 
Yet, in a recent match against Clarion, 
Kenny only pinned his opponent, a 
sophomore, with one second remaining 
in the match. 

Ron Russo, a sixth-place national 
winner at 137 pounds for Bloomsburg, 
tied Larry Rippey of Lock Haven, 5-5, 
in a recent dual match. These are 
only two examples of strong wrestlers 
to look for in the tournament, which, 
as many state college coaches have 
said, will be the "best ever." 

The visiting 11 state college wrest- 
ling teams will bring with them their 
student supporters and loyal fans. The 
Golden Eagle wrestling team will com- 
pete in this important event with the 
hopes that their fellow students will be 
there, too. 



la Kutztown — 5 points 

11. Slippery Rock — 5 points 
West Chester has not competed in the state 
tournaments in recent years, but the team 
was seventh in the NCAA ratings last year- 
the team this year is expected to provide 
some strong wrestling talent. 

Stiff Competition Ahead 

At the opening of the wrestling season, 
the Amateur Wrestling News, a national 
wrestling magazine published in Oklahoma 
City, Oklahoma, rated the wrestling teams 
of Clarion, East Stroudsburg, Lock Haven, 
Bloomsburg, and West Chester as five of 
the top 50 teams in the nation. 

In a recent rating of NCAA members, Lock 
Haven has been ranked ninth in the nation 
behind such teams as the University of Okla- 
homa (1), Oklahoma State University (2), 
Michigan State (3), Iowa (4), University of 
Iowa (5), Naval Academy (6), University 

of Michigan (7), and Colorado (8). Blooms- 
burg received honorable mention. 

In the NAIA ratings of small colleges, Lock 
Haven is number one in the nation and 
Bloomsburg is fourth; Clarion received hon- 
orable mention. 



Niebel Compiles 8- 1-1 Record; 
Outstanding Senior Wrestler 

Clarion's outstanding senior wrestler this 
year has been Doug Niebel. The Eagles' co- 
captain has compiled an eight win, one loss, 
and one tie record thus far in competition. 
This record is even more important when 
one realizes that Doug missed part of the 
season due to illness. 

Coach Bubb considers the State College 
High School graduate a consistent winner. 
In Pennsylvania State College tournaments, 
Doug placed second in his sophomore year 
and fourth in his junior year in the 157-pound 
class. His wins this year more than substan- 
tiates Coach Bubb's high opinion of Doug. 

Doug is majoring in special education and 
minoring in drivers education. Although Doug 
is an exceptional athlete and loves the out- 
doors, he also has a special interest in music. 
Graduate school and teaching are Doug's im- 
mediate goals following graduation. In the 
future, he would Ukc to try his hand at 
coaching. If Doug is as aggressive at pur- 
suing these goals as he is on the mats, he 
should have little trouble finding success in 
the future.

Hun Judo Team Finishes Second 
In College Invitational Tourney 



Six tough men of the CSC Hun Judo Team 
tied for second place in the Slippery Rock 
Invitational Collegiate Tournament last Sat- 
urday. 

Six teams from five colleges battled for 
trophies in the Slippery Rock Gymnasium 
in a match the first of this kind in Slippery 
Rock's history. The teams represented Penn 
State, Clarion, Juniata, Lock Haven, Slippery 
Rock, and a scrub team which was com- 
prised of six judokas who were alternates 
from the five colleges. Three of these alter- 
nates were Clarion men. 

In the first round, the Clarion Huns mat- 
ched their skills against Penn State, with 
Clarion taking the victory— 37 to 17 points. 
In the second match, Clarion met Lock Ha- 
ven, with CSC winning 30 to points. Clarion 
met the "scrub" team in the third round, 
with Clarion tripping and pinning them 50-0. 
In the fourth game. Clarion lost to the cham- 
pion Juniata team 40 to 0, with four losses 
and two ties out of 60 possible points. Duane 
Mercer and Ray Weaver tied their matches 
against their Juniata opponents. 

In the last game which was to be Clarion 
versus Slippery Rock, the CSC Huns' as- 



sured second place was at stake. To even 
more intensify the situation, the outcome of 
the exciting battle was a tie— 20 to 20. Upon 
the referee's decision the two teams had to 
have a seventh game play-off, in which Slip- 
pery Rock earned an additional seven points, 
bringing the score to Slippery Rock 27, CSC 
Huns 20. With the Slippery Rock victory, 
CSC was to share second place — both teams 
having three wins and two losses. 

Clarion State College sent nine men to the 
Slippery Rock shiai, and the team lineup 
was the following: BUI Clark— 3 wins and 
2 losses; Duane Mercer — 4 wins and 1 draw; 
Tom Komis — 4 wins and 2 losses; Ray Wea- 
ver— 2 wins and 3 draws; Rick Jones — 1 win, 
1 draw, 2 losses, and 1 no contest; John 
Brestensky- 1 draw, 3 losses, and 1 no con- 
test. 

Three alternates also scored: Charles Kres- 
zock— 2 wins and 2 losses. Kreszock entered 
intercollegiate for the first time at Slippery 
Rock and is a very promising Hun Judoka. 
Larry Cohen had 4 losses, and Ed Reott— 
4 losses. 

The CSC Hun Judo Club will be compet- 
ing at Penn State on Sunday.

Cage Team Loses Two; 
Defeats Lock Haven 

Last Friday, Clarion State lost its seventh 
straight to Mansfield State CoUege, lOS-78. 
in a non- conference game at Mansfield. 

Despite Dennis Luce's high score of 20 
points and Larry Kubovchick's 15, the team 
could not come up with a wiiming combina- 
tion; the first half ended with a 44-25 score 
in favor of the Mansfield team, who came 
on stronger in the second half to steadily 
widen the gap. 

Weinstein, Griffing, Williams, and Martin, 
the big four from Mansfield, combined to 
score 85 of their total 105 points. 

The basketball team traveled to Lock Ha- 
ven Saturday night where they won their 
second conference game of the season, 74- 
68. 

Frank Brooks, ineligible to play first sem- 
ester, came on strong to score 21 points 
as the game's high scorer; Joe Chalmers, 
second high team scorer, had 15, and Buddy 
Martin, who sustained an eye injury, had 
10 points in the victory. 

The Clarion squad held Lock Haven's Ed 
Wright, whose average in conference play

RVN-OFF ELECTION HELD 

Somers Elected Student 
Senate President; Ranieri 
Wins on Write-in Vote 



By DICK MEARS 

ElectkMi of the president and vice presi- 
dent of the Student Senate at Qarion State 
seldom goes by without some excitement. 
This year's election was no exception. 

In a run-off election held in Chandler Din- 
ing Had on Wednesday, Thomas "T" Somers 
defeated Raymond Yutzy for office of pre- 
sident of Student Senate. The run-off election 
was made necessary as a result of the elec- 
tion held Monday, in which none of the three 
presidential candidates received the required 
majority vote. Jan Johnston was eliminated 
in Monday's election. 

Balloting began in Chandler at 9 Monday 
and ended at 5 with a tired crew of incum- 
bent student senators who conducted the elec- 
tion and anxious candidates awaiting results. 
Then came a special meeting of the Senate 
and the counting of ballots. 

Monday's election was successful only in 
electing a Senate vice president. Surprisingly 
enough, Dan Ranieri defeated William Nanov- 
sky for that office in a write-in vote cam- 
paign. Up until a few days before the polls 
opened, Nanovsky ran unopposed for the of- 
fice. 

Over 800 Votes Each Day 

A total of 854 votes were cast Monday 
by a usually quiet and disinterested student 
body while 828 votes were cast in the run-off 
on Wednesday. It is interesting to note that 
a total of 429 votes chose Tom Paolino as 
president last year in a run-off election. A 
total of 671 votes was cast in that election. 

Lobbyists campaigning for vice presidential 
write-in candidate, Dan Ranieri, caused much 
concern for students and the election com- 
mittee. Gamma lobbyists carried posters and 
campaigned for Ranieri at the poUs. 

Voters listened constantly to campaign 
phrases as "Dan Ranieri for vice president; 
write-in vote," "Dan's the man," and "Vote 
for a change." These slogans were mixed 
with "This is how you spell it: R-A-N-I-E-R-I" 
and "Did you vote yet?" 

Lines For Everything 

Students flooded the lobby of Chandler dur- 
ing the lunch hours on Monday to vote. Al- 
though voting lines never reached the same 
proportions as dining hall serving lines, voters 
«tlU had to-lofn^ -toes to get halltrts.

A STUDENT REVIEW 



Styh 



Rubio Reveals Excellent A^rvie, 
Draws Applause for Two Encores 



By SHERRY LEHMAN 

Miguel Rubio, classical guitarist, gave a 
concert in the Chapel Monday night. The 
one-and-a-half hour concert was well attended 
and thoroughly enjoyed by the audience. Mr. 
Rubio included works from the 16th, 18th, 
and 19th centuries . in the first half of the 
concert, and devoted the second half entirely 
to 20th century works. 

I preferred the second half of the recital 
to the first; the second number in the first 
half was a Bach number, his "Suite in A 
Major," which was originally intended for 
the cello. Perhaps that was the difficulty, 
for the number did not seem to flow smooth- 
ly or fit to the range of the guitar, but 
It was very intricate and well done. 

The second half was exclusively 20th cen- 
tury, as aforementioned. Althoirgh much of 
contemporary music is dissonaht and irre- 
gular, Mr. Rublo's choices were of the tradi- 
tionally harmonic style. I especially enjoyed 
the second number, the "Paraguayenne 
Dance," written by a Mexican friend of the 
great Segovia. Use of harmonics in this selec- 
tion was very intricate; the melody was con- 



stantly answered by the bass. Mr. Rubio 
used the instrument to its fullest in the second 
half, with a combination of plucking, picking, 
and strumming involved. The intricacies of 
texture were varied and beautiful. 

Mr. Rubio has an excellent flamenco style, 
and complete command of an iofinite range 
of tonal qualities. His overall style is modest 
and unassuming; he is a completely delight- 
ful artist. I was most amazed at the move- 
ment of his hands— they were never still and 
always sure of the next note or chord. 

At the end of the program, Mr. Rubio 
drew such applause that he played two en- 
cores, both as brilliantly executed as the 
rest of his recital. I'm glad that Clarion 
gave him such a warm reception, for he 
had some difficulty in getting here (as do 
a lot, of our winter visitors!). His recital was 
originally scheduled for the tenth of Febru- 
ary, but he was delayed by heavy snowfall 
on the East Coast. The concert was resche- 
duled for Monday night, since there were 
no planes flying during the blizzard and as 
Mr. Rubio said in a final word to the aud- 
ience, "It was too far to come walking!"

voters, said "We have lines for everything." 
Clarion students again showed their interest 
in Wednesday's run-off election when 828 vo- 
ted. 

Numerous questions concerning the validity 
of the election because of the Dan Ranieri 
lobby caused President Tom Paolino to call 
a special meeting Monday after the polls 
closed at 5. At this meeting, it was stated 
that, since rules governing policies during 
elections are not written down, any rules 
made at the meeting would be ex post facto 
and thus not applicable to the present elec- 
tion. 

Election Not Invalid 

It was pointed out that the only way the 
election could be declared invalid was if the 
right of the voters to a secret ballot had 
been violated. 

Senator Carole Robinson then moved tiiat 
as far as the Student Senate was concerned, 
the results of election for officers should 
be considered valid. The motion passed unan- 
imously. 

Rules governing future elections, including 
Wednesday's run-off and today's senatorial 
election, were considered. Senator Katie 
Westcott moved that for future elections, a 
table be placed in the lounge of the cafeter- 
ia and that there could be no posters or 
campaigning in the lounge area where voting 
was taking place. This motion also passed 
luianimously. 

Ballot Counting Followed Meeting 

The electi<Mi committee, consisting of Sena- 
tors Judy Macuga, chairman, Carole Robin- 
son, Jim Ryland, Tom Paolino, ex-officio 
member, along with Senators Katie Westcott, 
Tom Mattern, Pam Mattem, Marg Butler 
and Dick Mears met after the special meet- 
ing for the purpose of counting votes. It 
took two hours to count them. 

A majority vote was needed by one candi- 
date to win Monday's election. With 854 total 
votes cast, a majority consisted of 428 votes 
or more. Neither of the two highest-voted 
candidates reached this total. Hence, Wednes- 
day's run-off election was necessary. 

Election for senators was held today in 
the dining hall. Results of this election will 
not be known until Tuesday or Wednesday 
of next week. 

The newly-elected officers and seoatoja -will 
take office on March 12.

playing alto sax, were well balanced by the 
inventive drum solos of Mr. Howard Huston, 
who drew a spontaneous ovation. 

The recital of the big band exhibited their 
repertoire which spans 30 years of style from 
the 30's to the 60's. They were well drilled, 
and despite lack of rehearsal time, which, 
Mr. Mitchell informed the audience, was no 
more than an hour and 20 minutes a week, 
put on a polished performance. 

The performance had been originally sche- 
duled to take place in the Chapel, but had 
to be changed to Chandler due to the alter- 
ations to the Chapel stage for the March 
12-15 production of O'Neill's Ah, Wilderness! 
An hour before the beginning of Wednesday 
night's program, workmen still had not begun 
to set up chairs for the Chandler audience.

By ROSEMARY SLEBODMK 

The staff of the Clarion Call must begin 
making plans for next year's Call. One of 
the decisions we must make is the choice 
of a suitable size newspaper for publication 
here. Should we continue publishing the stan- 
dard size which we publish now, or should 
we return to the tabloid format of last year? 
Students questioned at random generally 
agreed that they appreciated the advantages 
of the larger size paper. The following are 
some of their individual reasons for liking 
either of the two sizes. 

Leslie Hudak: "Upon examining samples 
of the two sizes, I feel that size and format 
are unimportant, but the quality of the ar- 
ticles and style of editorials should be the 
main criteria for evaluation." 

Bill Kehew: "I'm definitely a tabloid man. 
The smaller size is more in keeping with 
CSC's literary capacities, as well as more 
convenient for wrapping small articles of gar- 
bage." 

Linda DeCapua: "I like the tabloid. It's 
a lot easier to read. The large paper is 
so big. yet it has so few pages — it's clumsy. 
I think the smaller paper looks more colle- 
giate." 

Jim Craft: "I prefer the tabloid. It's more 
impressive and easier to read. It's not as 
awkward and can be carried conveniently." 
Kathy Barron: "I like the large size paper 
better because it has a more professional 
look. But the size really doesn't make any 



difference, it is the materal included, not 
the size that makes a paper good or bad." 

Peg Foley: "I think the smaller paper 
would be better as far as quality of the 
front page news is concerned. Since there 
is less room, only the most important news 
could be printed on the front page." 

Nancy Nahi: "I like the large size. You'd 
get the same amount of news in either paper, 
however, I like the professional look of a 
big paper— it's like reading the New York 
Times." 

Cart Glass: "I like the tabloid better be- 
cause I'm a short person and I can't stand 
to stretch my arms to read the larger paper." 

V. Harlan Frondell: "The size of a news 
media is totally relevant to the personal c<mi- 
ceptualization and involvement with the con- 
tent of the press. Since in our contemporary 
plastic society, size is proportional to quality, 
we (as a group) should present ourselves 
with the inference of quality. The media form 
comprises the vast part of the message. 
Think Big!" 

Students observed advantages of both sizes 
of the paper. The larger size does look more 
professional, and it is unique among most 
college publications. On the other hand, the 
smaller size does facilitate lay-outs and 
makes for a more "portable" paper. The 
staff will consider these points carefully when 
making their choice. We thank all students 
who have expressed their opinion and hope 
to represent the feeling of the majority of 
students in our choice. 



The stage is set for Ah, Wilderness!, the 
first major production of the spring semester 
by the Department of Speech and Dramatic 
Arts. 

The Eugene O'Neill play, directed by Dr. 
Mary Hardwick, will be presented March 
12, 13, 14, and 15 at 8:30 p.m. in the Col- 
lege Chapel. Students may obtain tickets 
starting Monday in the Dining Hall from 11-1 
and in the Chapel from 1-4 in exchange for 
their student theatre passes. 

The plot centers around young Richard Mil- 
ler (Paul Armbruster), an aware adolescent, 
and the problems he causes for his parents 
(Steve Brezzo and Roscann Zaremba) and 
family (Connie Kusiolek, Bill Demma, Judy 
Rosensteel, Charles Baptist, John Sandrock 
and Janice Duncan), especially when he 
sends questionable love poetry to his girl- 



friend, Muriel (Paula Douthett), much to 
the chagrin of her father (Ken Miller). De- 
fiantly, Richard strikes out with his friend, 
Wint Selby (Bob Heimann), to find out for 
himself what life is ail about. 

Richard encounters a very trying time 
when he listens to Wint's advice to go on 
a date with Belle (Rosemary Slebodnik), "A 
babe from New Haven." Trouble begins with 
Belle's friends (Ron Reed and Terry Daum). 
Richard's experiences disintegrate into comic 
disaster when he finds that a night at the 
Pleasant Beachhouse Saloon is not his kind 
of world. 

Ah, Wilderness!, the only comedy written 
by O'Neill, presents a straightforward view 
of American life at the beginning of the 
20th century. 



Bohlcn to Present 
Clarinet Recital 



On Wednesday at 8 p.m. a clarinet recital 
will be presented in the Chapel by Christian 
Bohlen, accompanied on the piano by Dr. 
Bong Hi Kim. Both are associate professors 
of music at Clarion. 

The program will consist of the following 
Compositions: Concerto in Eb Major. Op. 74 
by Carl Maria Von Weber: Fantasy Pieces 
Op. 73 by Robert Schumann; Sor.aU in Eb 
Major, Op. 167 by CamUle Saint Saens; Tom- 
beau de Ravel by Arthur Benjamin; and

State Money Grab Plan Defeated, 

* 

Students Should be Informed 



• It kl 



Of state Legislation on Colleges 




Federal Grant Allocated to RIMC 



'•■!« 



In the February 14 iBsue- o* The 
California Times qf Califol*nia Stab 
College, I read an article eht^tifed 
"Money Grab Defeated." Incjudled in 
this article was an ac^.'ount of a plan by 
the state to take control of< stttdent 
activity funds. "' ' ^ "^' 

Under this system, all activity 
funds would be forwaided to Harris- 
burg and would be placed in ah account 
designated by the buieau of the budget, 
in. order for any student organization 
to make use of these funtl#; i* vfould 
bo necessary for the business manager 
of, the Students' Assof iat!o| ^b submit 
a 'budget request to the state for ap- 
proval. The needed tamount would 
then (if approved) be ^er^t (jir^ctly to 
the college from Harrisfeurg. 

At present, all student ftinds are 
handled by the Stud.ents' Association 
under the direction of the business 
manager. After collectiori at registra- 
tion, the funds are immediately depos- 
ited in a local bank sp that the funds 
can be made available for immediate 
use. , , 

After talking to President James 
Gemmell about this new proposal, I 
discovered that this new system is now 
in experimental use at Kutz;to\yn State 
College. He reported that the system 
is functioning well and has be^n^in 
effect for about a year. 

The reason for this experiment is 
that the state would like to insure a 
positive system of checfe and balancj^s 
for all funds including stu4en.t (ic^iyijty 
fees. Such a system would preveijt 
financial corruption because all expen- 
ditures would have to be appi^qve^^y 
the state. It would also provide for' a 
clear and concise account of all college 
funds for proper financing and con- 
trol. 



When asked if there was a»y,d*»g- i 



er of misuse of funds in the present 
system, President Gemmell remarked 
that a state auditor now thoroughly re- 
views the books each year and that 
"every dollar" must be accounted for. 
Consequently, a check against corrup- 
tion is now in effect with the present 
system — a system which functions well. 

President Gemmell also pointed 
out that funds could conceivably take 
several weeks to get back to the college 
after approval in Harrisburg. This 
would, according to the president, "be 
a principal drawback" of the proposed 
system. 

The California Times article prais- 
ed the defeat of this plan on the 
grounds that the bill "could have been 
very troublesome to all student associ- 
ations in the state." 

In agreement with their stand, I 
feel that this proposal would have cre- 
ated much conflict and turmoil between 
the state and the various organizations 
that need to make ready use of activi- 
ty fee funds. If an organization, for 
example, owed a considerable sum of 
money to a local business concern and 
could not produce the necessary mon- 
ey for several weeks, their credit rat- 
ing would, in all probability, suffer. 
Such a situation would, in addition, re- 
flect upon the entire college as well as 
• the particular organization involved. 

I would also encourage students 
to keep themselves informed of any 
state activities and legislation which 
concerns state colleges. The experi- 
ment is still being conducted at Kutz- 
town, and could still be made active 
at all the colleges in the near future. 
We should therefore be prepared to 
veto this bill (or any like it), if neces- 
' sary, for our own safety.

Advantages of %p-educafion Prevail 
At Clarion Since^eginning in 1867; 
Non-Coed Sch&dls Plan Switch 



M 

During the past*year. 60 or more 
traditionally men's and women's col- 
leges have scheduled coeducational sta- 
tus. Vassar, Caltech, aid' Vale are 
among the latest to plan coeducation. 
These three will bring the number to 
a>*)ut 26 men's institutions and 96 wo- 
men's colleges which have decided to 
accept both men and women as stu- 
dents. 

The colleges that are switching to 
a coeducational enrollment feel the 
historical justification has been out- 
lived. From their viewpoint, coedu- 
cation is a realistic reflection of society 
that provides a more stimulating intel- 
lectual and social environment. An- 
other advantage to coeducation is that 
the attractiveness of the college in- 
creases. The increased attractiveness 
is to encourage more women or men to 
enter fields previously associated to 
one sex. Careers in science and engin- 
eering have in the past been open to 
only a few women. ^ 

The students of Clarion have been 
' juying the advantage of a ceeduca- 
! cnal institution since Clarion was es- 
tablished as a state collie, in 1867. 
Learning, it has been found, ^itts from 
the differences in the male and female 
attitudes on intellectual questions. 



Another distinct advantage is that 
dating takes place in a more natural 
framework. The men and women stu- 
dents see each other on a day-to-day 
relationship, in class and out, rather 
than during a "frantic" weekend of 
various activities. 

Coeducational schools are vital in 
the development of an individual in 
the social graces. Many students ac- 
quire a social ease that could not be 
developed if they were attending a non- 
coeducational school. 

Coeducational schools are also 
much more realistic in their outlook. 
A person should have the experience 
of associating with members of the op- 
posite sex, since after graduating they 
will encounter problems arising from 
working mih the opposite sex. If one 
has attended a non-coeducational school 
all their Hfe, they will not be equipped 
socially to function in a beneficial way 
for themselves or their peers or their 
co-workers. 

An intricate part of everyone's ed- 
ucation is the acquiring of "social grac- 
es," and Clarion from its beginnings 
has been helping to develop men and 
women who can function in a bi-sexual 

world.

Letters Asked 

Editor, The CaU: 

As you may recall, two years ago I in- 
troduced S. 1275, a bill substituting a volun- 
tary armed force for the present selective 
service system. The bill was not directly 
considered by the Armed Services Committee 
and efforts to incorporate amendments in 
the Selective Service Act were defeated. The 
draft's continuance emphasizes the inconsis- 
tency of government coerced service with 
America's concept of freedom. Iliis was the 
principle reason that I introduced S. 503, 
the Voluntary Military Manpower Procure- 
ment Act of 1969. 

This year, the chances of passage are some- 
what better than in 1967. Major news maga- 
zines such as Time and Newsweek have con- 
tained articles commenting favorably upon 
a voluntary military; President Nixon sup- 
ports the concept as well as w^juiown fi- 
gures from both sides of the polifical spec- 
trum including John K. GalbraitJ?; James 
Farmer, David Dellinger, Milton Friedman, 
and Barry Goldwater. Howe/er, weU-known 
political leaders, economists, and even the 
President may not be' the catalyst for end- 
ing the draft. In order to move the nation 
it will be necessary that those who have 
fought conscription over the past few years 
enter the discussion and make their views 
known. The present Selective Servitee Act 
will not terminate until 1971 unl«is we lake 
action to change that situation now. 

Efforts aimed at securing coramifctee con- 
sideration by generating and iifluencing local 
forces would be instrumental ki building sap- 
port for draft abolishment, in addifem Ito

Education for Disadvantaged 

Editor, The Call: 

Clarion State College is now in the midst 
of a rather obscure student government elec- 
tion. At other campuses all around the world, 
other students are demanding control over 
and determination of the content of their edu- 
caUon. They believe that education should 
relate to reality— not just to selected "real- 
ity," but to all things that are undeniably 
parts of the world we Uve in. One of the 
ceslkics we consistently seem to overlook 
is that of giving meaningful education to the 
culturally (economically?) disadvantaged. 

Who are they? They are black, white, yel- 
low, red, and brown. They number between 
20 and 40 million people in America alone, 
depending upon one's source. They are black 
Americans, Puerto Ricans, Mexican-Ameri- 
cans, American Indians, and the people of 
Appalachia. And they are all Americans; they 
are the part of society we try to hide from. 
But they are there, nonetheless. 

Call these people poor, disadvantaged, or 
underprivileged; it doesn't matter. They pre- 
sent a viable challenge to education and only 
a minute percentage of educators are equip- 
ped to offer them anything meaningful. Most 
of us who will graduate from Clarion will 
teach sometime during our lives and we are 
totally unprepared to serve this American 
"third world." We are educated to teach 
only the white, the middle class, and the 
suburban. We are the victims of the Dick- 
Jane-Spot-Puff curriculum which is even in- 
adequate for those for whom it was designed, 
let alone to those cultural "foreigners" to 
whom the cabin cruiser American dream has 
no reality. 

All of the candidates for student offices 
should pledge to work to their capacity to 
help develop a program at Clarion for the 
education of the disadvantaged. First of all 
we need "real" courses on this subject. The 
department of education should offer a series 
of well taught courses that show who the 
disadvantaged are, their characteristics, and 
effective and meaningful methods of teaching 
them. Secondly, that department should seek 
out lecturers qualified to speak on those sub- 
jpfts. And finally, should supplement the mere 
dozen or so books about education for the 
disadvantaged in our library with an exten- 
sive collection of related materials. 

As future citizens we should all be con- 
cerned about the hidden America and our 
relationship to it. The candidates for student 
office, as the future leaders of the student 
body, must carry the torch of support and 
action for this one small facet of a meaning- 
ful education. 

Yours very truly, JOHN T. YATES 

Students Rewrite Constitution 

Editor; The Call: 

Did you know that we, the students of 
Clarion Stale College (through the Clarion 
Students AssociaUon) own the Book.store? Did 
you kUow that we have a Faculty Senate 
simUaf to the Student Senate? Who decides 
what rtiew programs will be accepted for the 
college? How much do you really know about 
aarion State College other than what group 
is coming up for Greek Weekend, or what 
^the cafeteria is servbig for dinner next Mon- 
day? 

Right now the Clarion Students Association 
is in the process of rewriting the college 
constituUon. This is the sam3 constitution 
that was passed by Student Senate last year 
but rejected by the Deans because several 
of the articles were unclear and needed re- 
worded. A committee set up by Student 
Senate is working hard to write a solid eon- 
stitation that can be passed this year. The

Editor's Note: The following article is 
third in a series based on the two proposals 
for student rights which are now under con- 
sideration by several special committees. 

By CAROLYN WELESKO 

Included in this section of last week's Call 
was a summary of the procedures concern- 
ing student publicaticms which are included 
in "A Paper on Proposed Academic Freedom 
for Stu(tents at Clarion State College." This 
proposal is not, however, the only document 
under consideration by the appointed special 
committees to study the^e issues. For this 
reason. The Call would also like to I'eport 
on the procedures concerning student publi- 
cations which are included in the other pri- 
mary document entiUed, 'Joint Statement on 
Rights and Freedoms of Students." 

In this document, the student press is de- 
scribed as being a "valuable aid in establish- 
ing and maintaining an atmosphere of free 
and responsible discussion and of intellectual 
exploration on the campus." 

The document advocates an independent 
corporation that is financially and legally 
separate from the university. But if financial 
independence is not possible, the institution 
should bear legal responsibility lor all ma- 
terials included in Uie publication. 

In addiUon, the institution should provide 
editorial freedom and financial autonomy so 
that publications can be properly used as 
vehicles for "free inquiry and free expression 
in an academic community." 

Institutional authorities .should also, in con- 
sultation with students and faculty, "have 
a responsibility to provide written clarifica- 
tion of the role of the student publications, 
the standards to be u.sed in their evaluation, 
and the limitations on external control of 
their operation." 

According to the proposal, student editors 
should have freedoms which are governed by 
the standards of responsible journaUsm such 
as "the avoiding of libel, indecency, undocu- 
mented allegations, attacks on personal inte- 
grity, and the techniques of harassment and 
innuendo." 



Student editors should also be permitted 
to establish their own editorial policies and 
news coverage. At no time should the student 
press be subject to censorship or advance 
approval of copy. 

Student editors should not, under this do- 
cument, be removed from office because of 
"student, faculty, administrative, or public 
di.sapproval of editorial policy or content." 
Editors sholild only be removed for proper 
causes; removal should, in turn, follow the 
proper procedures. Those who appoint editors 
should also be responsible for their removal. 

The final part of the section on publications 
states that all university published and fin- 
anced student publicaUons should state that 
"the opinions there expressed are not neces- 
sarily those of the college, university, or 
student body." 

Clearly, this proposal states all the nUes 
that are necessary to govern publications 
without going intg undue detail. This propo.sal 
seems to outline procedures simply and con- 
cisely; the proposal is, in short, easy to 
understand. 

Although this document is ntrt, as specific " 
and detailed as the "Paper," it does provide 
a sen.sible plan for college publications. In 
contrast, the other plan (which was reported 
on last week) is complicated and detailed. 
Many parts are vague. For example, the 
document .states that an advisory board will 
appoint a "professional consultant and a fin- 
ancial consultant" to assist in advising the 
editorial staff. One would assume that the 
"professional consultant" is the advisor, but 
this is not specifically stated, and is, thero^ 
lore, not clear. 

In any event these are the two sections 
of the two proposals that are now being 
considered. With some revision, both can be 
effectively incorporated into the publication 
policies at Clarion. 

Interested students who prefer one of the 
proposed documents should make their opin- 
ions known to Uie faculty senate or to any 
of the special committees so that these per- 
sons will have a better basis for determining 
the right proposal on student rights for use 
at Clarion. 



Campus Kaleidoscope 



By SHERRY LEHMAN 

The Slippery Rock Rocket had some news 
which should be of interest to all Clarion 
women. A poll was taken on the proposition 
to allow women students of the college to 
live in off-campus housing, and was approved 
by a majority of the voters with a great 
IMjrcentage of them saying they will definitely 
take advantage of the new policy. The policy 
apparently met with little administrative ob- 
jection. It's certainly something to think 
about here at Clarion. 

A photograph from the Millersville Snap- 
per of February 19, 1969, shows young stu- 
dents from the Millersville Lab Elementary 
School working with the school's principal, 
on the second issue of The Snipper, the 
elementary version of the Millersville State 
College newspaper. Mr. John Pflum, the prin- 
cipal of the lab school, is hoping that some 
parent will take over editorship of the paper, 
with aid from student members of the upper 
elementary grades. 

It is hoped that the Snipper will create 
more parent interest and participation in lab 
school activities. The publication is put out 
bi-monthly; contributions for stories and con- 
tent are accepted from both parents and 
students. It serves as a sort of school news- 
letter, announcing coming and past events. 



Opinion polls among the elementary students 
are published also. 

A new ruling went into effect last week 
at Temple University concerning the phone 
rcgulaUons in certain oncampus dormitories. 
Under this new ruling, students will be al- 
lowed to make their own contract with the 
Bell Telephone Company, in order to have 
private phones installed in their dorm rooms. 
The arrangements for installation do not con- 
cern the University in any way; the students 
are personally responsible for the mcmthly 
phone bills and the $30 installation fee. The 
new ruling is a result of complaints from 
students tl^at there are not enough phones 
on each floor of the dormitories, and that 
the phones which are available are frequently 
out of order for long periods of time. 

Four full pages in the Temple News were 
devoted to the students of Temple University 
running for Student Senators. I am quite 
impressed by their thorough coverage of stu- 
dent government elections and issues,- Where 
is Clarion's interest? Each Temple candidate 
presented his qualifications (not just his Q.- 
P.A.), and the reasons he felt would make 
his membership in the Student Senate a 
worthwhile addition. This makes our policies 
concerning senate elections look rather inade- 
quate. Not only are CSC students completely 
in the dark about Uie rea.sons each of our

counties of Clarion, Jefferson, Forest, Clearfield and Venango, which it 
serves, according to Wayne E. Goss (left) RIMC director. Faculty, added 
facilities, consultants and lecturers for the program, including a three- 
week institute at Clarion in August, will be provided by the college's Di- 
vision of Communication, headed by Dr. James H. Cole (center). Dr. Rich- 
ard Metcalf, (right) will coordinate the program for the college. 



First Such Grant in Media 
Awarded in Pennsylvania 



The Clarion Area Regional Instructional 
materials Center has been awarded a $90,000 
Federal grant in media under Uie Education- 
al Professional Development Act of the U.S. 
Department of HealUi, Education and Wel- 
fare. 

It is the only such grant awarded in Penn- 
sylvania and one of 13 in the United States. 

According to Wayne E. Goss, director of 
the RIMC, the funds will be utilized to pro- 
vide information and experiences with inno- 
vative teaching methods and media to select- 
ed personnel from the five county area served 
by the RIMC. The five counties include Cla- 
rion, Clearfield, Forest, Jefferson, and Ven- 
ango. 

The RIMC has contracted with Clarion 
State College's Division of Communication 
to provide faculty, additional facilities, con- 
sultants, and lecturers for the term of the 
project. 

Dr. James H. Cole, dean of the division 
of communication, indicated that the program 
will include a three-week institute on campus 
in August 1969. The remainder of the pro- 



gram will coosist of one-day in-service pro- 
grams at each of the 23 school disUicts 
throrugfaout the 1969-70 school year. 

The summer institute wiU host 168 chief 
school administrators, secondary priucipals, 
elementary supervisors, administrative assis- 
tants, curriculum directors, certified librar- 
ians, half and full-time media persons, and 
elementary principals. 

Each participant will receive $75 per week, 
plus $15 per week dependent stipend during 
the summer institute, August 4-22. Partici- 
pants may also receive three hours graduate 
credit from Clarion. 

Categories under six study topics will in- 
clude: I. The Role of Technology in Society 
and Education; 11. Organizing for EducatiMi- 
al Change; III. The Process of EducaUonal 
Communication; IV. The Integration of 
Leaguing Experience; V. Ciurent Methodolo- 
gy in the Teacher-Learning Process; VI. In- 
structional Media: What, Where, and How. 

Dr. Richard Metcalf, professor of commun- 
ication, will coordinate Clarion's faculty par- 
ticipaUon in the project. 



CEC Convention in Denver 



The student chapter of the Council for Ex- 
ceptional Children is hoping to send several 
students to the national convention of the 
council in Denver, Colorado. The convention 
will be held from April 6 to 12. The expenses 
of several faculty members from the Special 
Education Department who will also be at- 
tending will be covered by a Federal grant. 

The council is divided into several cata- 
gories such as the blind, the deaf, and the 
mentally retarded. Workshops and lectures 
will be conducted in the various groups, and 
the students will have the opportunity to hear 
authorities in the Special Education field, 
including the authors of several of their text- 
books. 

Some of the topics to be covered include 
current research in Special Education, new 
techniques in teaching the handicapped, cur- 
riculum changes, and now rehabilitation pro- 
grams. 

Marg McHenry, president of the Council 
for Exceptional Children, said that the club 
hopes to be able to pay the transportation 
costs for four or five students. They plan 
to sell sandwiches in the dorms on Tuesday 
evenings and perhaps have a slave day to 
raise the necessary money. 

The council will elect the students who 
will represent Clarion at one of its March 
meetings. According to Marg, "The students 



will be selected on the basis of how much 
they have helped in the activities and projects 
of the council this year." 

The other officers of the councU are: Dick 
Deriso, vice president, and Mary Lou Nowac- 
ki, secretary-treasurer. 



Studying in France 

Connie Griggs, a French major at Clar- 
ion, and her roommate, Vickie Wendel, a 
French major at Pitt, are spending the 
year studying in France. They were in- 
jured in an automobile accident last week 
while traveling to Nice for the Mardi Gras. 
Anyone desiring to write to them should 
address correspondence to: 

Miles. Connie Griggs and Vickie Wendel 

Jantet, ViUa a Cote 

Traverse des Lucioles 

Route de Vauvenargues

Although their injuries are not ex- 
tremely serious, they will be in the hos- 
pital for some time, and any letters will 
be much appreciated. 



The ProvJncetown Playwright 



The Provincetown Players, a small thea- 
trical company that came originally from 
Greenwich Village moved to Provincetown, 
Mass., in the summer of 1915 and acquired 
not only their residence in a small stable 
on MacDougal Street, but also gained a 
new playwright. The theatre probably didn't 
realize the talent they had acquired in Eu- 
gene O'Neill, nor did they expect that one 
day the same man who wrote the one-act 
plays they presented would be honored as 
the first American dramatist to receive the 
Nobel Prize. 

O'Neill was familiar with the stage and 
those who worked there because his father 
was the popular actor James O'Neill. Unlike 
other members of his prosperous family, Eu- 
gene wandered through the first 21 years 
3f his life rather unsuccessfully— trying his 
hand at various occupations, all of which 
failed. His interest in literature exhibited it- 
self early in life as he avidly read tite works 
of Kipling, London, and Conrad. 

He began his writing career in 1912 when 
he wTote parodies for the New York Tele- 
grafrii. Gradually, his writings became sharp 
and argumentative as he expressed the ter- 
ror of death and the life of the underdog 
in his verses for the New York CaU. 

With the production of Beyond the Horizon 



in 1920, O'Neill began his rise to fame as 
a playwright. Other plays he wrote are: The 
Emperor Jones, The Hairy Ape, Desire Under 
the Elms, The Ice Man Cometii, A Long 
Day's Journey into Night, More Stately Man- 
sions, Mourning Becomes Electra, and Ah, 
Wilderness! 

Critics have attributed such tiUes as melo- 
dramatist, mystic, mediocre, and imperfect 
to O'Neill. However, O'Neill is a unique Am- 
erican playwright for several reasons. His 
plays are ntrt merely products of theatrical 
developments; they are reflecticHis of his uni- 
que personality— his discontent with mater- 
ialistic America, his sense of frustration, an 
enriched experience which is an assimilation 
of European and American drama. Some cri- 
tics have said that in O'Neill European and 
American drama because the thought and 
experimentation <rf Europe is given the vital- 
ity of America. 

O'Neill is not concerned with the dynamics 
of society, but rather with creating intense 
drama, demonstrating ideas about character 
rather than individualization and presenting 
an iUusion of life through characterization. 

One of O'Neill's plays. Ah, Wilderness, will 
be presented for ytMir enjoyment on March 
12, 13, 14, 15 at 8:15 p.m. in the College 
Chapel.

Clarion Designated Test Center 



Clarion has been designated as a test cen- 
ter for administering the National Teacher 
Examinations on April 12, 1969, Dr. William 
J. Page announced today. 

College seniors preparing to teach and 
teachers anplying for positions in school sys- 
tems which encourage or require applicants 
to submit their scores on the National Teach- 
er Examinations along with their other cre- 
dentials are eligible to take the tests. Last 
year more than 98,000 candidates took the 
examinations, which are prepared and ad- 
ministered by Educational Testing Service 
of Princeton, New Jersey. 

The designation of Clarion as a test center 
for these examinations will give prospective 
teachers in this area an opportunity to com- 
pare their performance on the examinations

take the Common Examinations, which in- 
clude tests in Professional Education and 
General Education, and one of the 15 Teach- 
ing Area EX^aminations, which are designed 
to evaluate his understanding of the subject 
matter and methods applicable to the area 
he may be assigned to teach.

tration procedures and containing Registra- 
tion Forms may be obtained from the Place- 
ment Office or directly from the National

Budget Requests 
Are Due Today 

All budget requests from the Caari(m Stu-

ing to Richard Mears, chairman of Student 
Senate finance committee. 

All officially recognized student organi2a- 
tions are permitted to submit a request for 
financial support during the coming year. 
All requests for funds must be itemized and 
accompanied by a complete justification, and 
these requests must be submitted to the Sen- 
ate finance committee by the faculty sponsor 
of each organization. 

All requests will be analyzed by the fin- 
ance committee of the Student Senate. Time 
will be arranged by the comnuttee for any 
organization sponsor requesting a hearing be- 
fore the finance committee to defend the 
budget request submitted by the organiza- 
tion he represents. 

All organizations requesting funds will be 
informed of their respective allocations by 
Myron Klingensmith, business manager of 
the Students' Association. 



The tragedy 
of the world 
is that those 
who are ima-

those who are 
experienced have 
feeble ima-

act on knowledge 
without ima-

weld together 
imagination and 
experience.

These reasons are not even considered im- 
portant by each voter, whose choice is made 
on the basis of friendship or social affilia- 
tion. 

ClaricMi is one of the few state colleges 
which permits such a lax and unorganized 
system of election. It is partly the fault of 
apathetic students, but the administration is 
responsible for allowing unqualified candi- 
dates to run simply because their overall 
average dictates eligibility.

Returning Student Teachers 
Feel Final Semester 'Blahs^ 



By CARLA FULLER 

Some Clarion College seniors are suffering 
from depression and from an acute attack 
of the final semester "blahs." Many of the 
returniuR student teachers are disillusioned. 
They have found they must readjust to cam- 
pus life. Yet, as ever, they are ready with 
an opinion on any subject. Their names have 
been chanscd at the request of those inter- 
viewed. Although the names are fictitious, 
the opinions are real and sincere. 

When questioned about the value of study- 
ing, several seniors confirmed the traditional 
belief that studying is definitely necessary. 
In fact, Maud slated that "study and learn- 
ing are more than I thought. I realized last 
semester, while student teaching, that on^ 
must be a 'jack-of-all-trades' in the teaching 
profession. One must have a great deal of 
knowledge about a great deal of things." 
Maud is an elementary ed. major. Gert in- 
formed me that, "contrary to what some 
students think, cramming is not studying! 
In order to learn, good study habits must 
be developed." Kilroy, the joker in the crowd, 
came through with his statement, "I don't 
like .studying." His main objective is to avoid 
Uncle Sam's draft. Kilroy is in the liberal 
arts program. 

Students Learn By Doing 

Everyone I spoke to agreed that learning 
took place outside the classroom more often 
than it did inside the classroom even under 
the qualified leadership of the professors. 
Harry, a business administration major, said, 
"My classmates have taught me more than 
my profs ever have, especially in informal 
group discussions when we talk about things 
mentioned in class." Gert, who is a math 
major, believes that "learning outside the 
classroom is more interesting and more last- 
ing. For example, in student teaching one 
learns more by doing than one can ever 
learn in a methods course." Kilroy said that 
what he learned outside of class was defin- 
itely more "fun." 

Remarks became more emphatic when the 
subject of major fields was mentioned. The 
math majors— Tom, Dick, and Gert— had de- 
finite ideas about their field and the methods 
of teaching used by the professors in the 
math department. When asked, "What do 
you think of your major?" Tom simply re- 
plied "less and less." Gert echoed his senti- 
ments with her statement, "Alter three years 



of studying math I am now changing to bio- 
logy!" The only comment that Dick would 
make was, "Every time I think of the math 

• department I get so disgusted that I don't 
even feel hke talking about it." Fortunately 
the elementary education field did not share 
the fate of the math department. Maud was 

' pleased with her major. She said, "After 
doing my student teaching I've found that 
I wouldn't be happy in any other field." 
The future businessman put in a word for 
his field. Harry stated: "At least the ad- 
vanced business courses were usually based 
on the basic business courses." 

It's What You Make It 

While some students stated their opinions 
promptly about the worth of college, otlier 
students hesitated and stopped to reflect. Har- 
ry feels that the only worthwhile thing about 
college is "tlie diploma we receive." It is a 
symbol that supposedly will open more doors 
for the ambitious person. John Henry, 
a chemistry major, told me, "College is worth 
; what you want to make it worth." John in- 
' tends to do his graduate work next year 
unless the Army has other plans for him. 
Gert has found that college is worthwhile. 
According to her, "College helps shape more 
mature opinions and helps prepare a person 
to make decisions." 

While some are in favor of college others 
stated that "more than half of it is worth- 
less." Kilroy and Maud remarked that, "Ma- 
ny required courses were a waste of time 
and money. For example Maud said, I could 
have bought my Ad. Psy. book, read it myself 
and learned as much as I did in class." 
It is also interesting to note that those who 
complained about required courses usually 
objected to those courses outside their major 
field. Matii majors objected to literature cour- 
ses and English majors objected to basic 
math courses. 

Opinions Are Varied 

The opinions I received for my interviews 
were as varied as the questions I asked. 
The plans and aspirations of these seniors 
are graduate school, a future in the teaching 
profession,- a job in the business world, or 
a two-year government career at Uncle Sam's 
request. Although they often disagreed, they 
did find one goal that they have in common. 
Their goal is graduation in May, and the 
sooner it gets here the better. 



AT THE MOVIES 



'Diary of a Country PriesV 
Is Showing Tonight in Peirce 



By JOHN MATVIKO 

Since 1951, when "Diary of a Country 
Priest" was first released,, the Catholic 
Church has changed considerably. Because of 
the recent Vatican Council decisions, the 
Church has moved towards increased secular- 
ization. It now has become deeply involved 
with its people. For instance, the Mass is now 
said in the vernacular, and also individual 
churches are permitted a much wider range 
in their interpretations of how the Church 
should meet the people's needs. 

Thus, one would think that a motion pic- 
ture al>out a country priest in France would 
have little relevance for today's Christian. 
But after seeing 'Diary of a Country Priest" , 
one can only conclude that it is as impor- 
tant today as it ever was. 

"Diary of a Country Priest" will be showp 
at 7:30 tonight in the Peirce Auditorium. 

The story concerns a young priest who 
is assigned to a rural, French parish. His 
parishioners soon prove to be both stingy 
and unfriendly. Even the little girls in his 
catechism class play tricks on him. An old 
priest tries to console him by saying: "A 
true priest is never loved." But the advice 
fails to raise his spirits. The humble priest 
looks upon himself as a major failure. 

The priest also has additional problems. 
He is slowly dying of stomach cancer. Be- 
cause of this condition, he can only drink 
wine. His parishioners, not knowing the na- 
ture of his condition, take him for a drunk. 



Spiritually, his belief in God has also been 
shaken. The older priest advises him to pray 
— but this doesn't seem to help. 

But how does "Diary of a Country Priest" 
relate to today's world? The priest's last 
iwords are: "Does it matter; all is grace." 
What we are seeing is not just a simple 
fetory of a humble, country priest; but rather, 
something much larger. The stinginess of 
the rich, the indifference of his parishioners, 
and the snobbery of the villagers are not 
human conditions confined to only small, 
country villages. These characteristics are 
universal— they affect every one of us. In 
spite of his spiritual and physical suffering, 
the priest continues and finally achieves, at 
death, peace of mind. He is a modem day 
saint. 



Future Flicks 



Continuing through tomorrow at the Or- 
pheum is Raymond St. Jacques in Jules Das- 
sin's "Up-Tight." 

Ending tomorrow at the Garby vdU be the 
twin bill: "Corruption," a shock-thriller star- 
ring Peter Cashing, and "Payment in Blood," 
another Italian western starring TV's Edd 
"Kookie" Byrnes. Sunday begins the showing 
of another police drama, "Pendulum," star- 
ring George Peppard and Jean Seberg.

McCauliff Captures First 
At Cuyahoga Tournament 






By JERRILYN JONES 



Clarion State College debaters continued 
their whining ways February 14-15 as fresh- 
man debater Barry McCauliff received first- 
place trophy as top speaker in the Cuyahoga 
Community College novice tournament in 
Cleveland, Ohio. 

In competition with 56 speakers from 14 
colleges in Ohio and Pennsylvania, McCauliff 
finished just six points ahead of teammate 
Frank Falso, Coraopolis sophomore. 

McCauliff and Falso had a 3 1 record in 
the tourney with wins over Kent State; Woos- 
ter, and Akron, and a single loss to Case. 

On the same weekend, senior Pat Dobson 
and junior Kaye Berkey compiled a 4-4 re- 
cord at Dartmouth in competition with top 
teams from throughout the nation. The two 
defeated Rutgers and Washington and Lee, 
both finalists from the WiUiam and Mary 
tournament where they last competed. 

Clarion debaters also had wins over the 
University of Florida and Cornell. Losses 
were to Army, Ohio State, University of Cali- 
fornia at Berkeley, and King's College.

go and voice their opinions to the committee. 
Every student is welcome to come to the 
meetings and find out what the constitution 
siays now. and how it will be changed for 
the betterment of the students. Since the 
rules and regulations set down in the con- 
stitution affect you, the students, don't you 
think you should take more interest in this 
project? Instead of complaining only to your 
roommate or friends, voice your opinion to 
someone who has the power to help solve 
some of the problems on this campus.

Marine Corps. Interviews and testing will 
be conducted outside the Book Store. 

The officer programs available to under- 
graduates are the Platoon Leaders Class 
(Ground) and Platoon Leaders Class (Avia- 
tion). These programs have two six-week 
training periods, which, with successful com- 
pletion, lead to a commission upon gradua- 
tion. For seniors or recent graduates there 
are the Officer Candidate Course and the 
Aviation Officer Candidate Ourse, which re- 
quires successful completion of a ten-week 
training period after graduation and leads 
to a commission. Another important program 
is the Women Officer Candidate Course, for 
women who are juniors, seniors or college 
graduates. 

AH preliminary training is conducted- at 
Quantico, Va. Ground officers continue train- 
ing at Quantico once they are commissioned 
Second Lieutenants. The aviator, after his 
preliminary training at Quantico, goes to Pen- 
sacola, Fla., for flight training. 

OCS Interviews 
Here on March 25 

A selection team for Army officer candi- 
dates will visit Clarion State College, March 
25. Lieutenant Walter J. Polk, team leader, 
announced today. Lieutenant Polk, from the 
First US Army Recruiting District Headquar- 
ters, Fort Meade, Md., will interview col- 
lege seniors and graduates on campus for 
the officer candidate enlistment option. 

Under this program, qualified college grad-

Campus Players 

Mr. Arnold Jeschke, faculty advisor to the 
Venango Campus Players, has announced 
four one-act plays which are being considered 
for production. The plays include: The Long 
Christmas Dinner by Thornton Wilder, A 
Peculiar Position, by Eugene Scribe, The 
Marriage Proposal by Anton Chekov, and 
the Romances by Edmond Rostand. Mr. Jes- 
chke has stated that only three of these four 
will be presented. 

Auditions for parts m the plays began Mon- 
day, and the complete casts were chosen 
by the end of the week. Tlie three plays 
will be presented in late April. 

The Long Christmas Dinner is a fantasy 
about a family chronicle. It was written by 
Thornton WUder, an American playwright who 
is known for his Broadway play Our Town. 

A Peculiar Position is a farce about two 
women who make clever use of a ridiculous 
admirer as a decoy to save their respective 
husband and lover from a pursuer. This one- 
act play was composed by Eugene Scribe, 
a 19th century French author. 

Anton Chekov, a Russian writer, wrote The 
Marriage Proposal, a story of a hypochondria- 
cal suitor who quarrels with the girl he wants 
to marry, but is finally accepted by her. 

Edmond Rostand, another French writer, 
wrote The Romances. This is a story of two 
sentimental youngsters who rebel against 
their parents' wishes for them to marry. 

Social Committee 

At the first meeting of the social commit- 
tee, the theme "Crimson and Clover" was 
chosen for the spring semiformal. Tlie dance 
will be held on March 8 in the cafeteria 
of the Venango Christian High School. Music 
will be provided by the Classics. 

The chairman of the social committee this 
semester is Tim Dunkle. Worliers on the 
committee are: Irene Fisher, Linda Hoffer- 
man, Judy Smith, Bill Beggs, Sue Lesko, 
Rozie Roche, Jim Groner, and Kathy Rod- 
gers. 

Basketball 

Vs. TUusville Campus 

On Monday, Feb. 17, Venango Campus de- 
feated the University of Pittsburgh's Titus- 
ville Campus, 75-72. The Vulcans had to with- 
stand a late^ second-half rally by Titusville 
to preserve the win. It was Venango's third 
win in a row and their first on the road. 

Led by Stan Kukla, the Vulcans surged 
to a 42-35 half-time edge. Kukla was high 
man for both teams with 36 points. Trudel 
and Blake both hit for 17 to lead Titusville. 
Charles Burnett and Pat Casey helped the 
Vulcan cause with 13 and 11, respectively. 
The wm boosted Venango's record to 4-7.

son. The Vulcans made it four in a row 
on their home court and in doing so, es- 
tablished their final mark at 5-7. V«iango's 
squad played fine basketball the second half 
of the season, posting a 5-4 record since 
semester break. 

Again it was Stan Kukla leading the way 
with 30 points as Mike Lindow dumped in 
23. Barville and Kane led Bradford with 20 
and 10, respectively. 

Venango got off to an early lead which 
at one time was 12 points, 32-20. Gar2el and 
Kane brought Bradford back, but Venango 
led at half-time 45-41. In the second half, 
it was nip and tuck with neither team lead- 
ing by more than five points. Late baskets 
by Lindow, Kukla, and Casey put Venango 
on top. Bradford's Barville attempted a shot 
with one second to go but missed.

and the judokas were divided into weight 
and belt divisions. Twenty of the 37 contes- 
tants had either green or w'nite belts, and 
fought in the lightweight division, while 14 
contestants with either green or white belts 
fought in the heavyweight class. A second 
heavyweight division consisted of three brown 
belt holders. 

Penn State ranked first in the light weight, 
green-white belt division, with Juniata taking 
second place, and the University of Pitts- 
burgh, third. Capturing first place in the 
heavyweight, green-white belt class was Al- 
toona YMCA, followed by Penn State in se- 
cond place. Tom Komis took third place for 
Clarion. In the heavyweight, brown belt 
division, the men from Juniata won both 
first and second place. ITiird place went to 
Indiana. 

Tom Komis took third place for CSC in 
the heavyweight, green-white belt division 
with one win by ippon— 10 points, three wins 
by wazari— seven points, and one loss by 
decision. Ricit Jones, also fighting inthe hea- 
vyweight, green-white division, scored one 
win by wazari and had one loss by decision.

Women's Swimming 
Team is Organized 

Miss Karen King, a new addition to Cla- 
rion's faculty, is now organizing a women's 
speed swimming team. 

About 20 interested girls began practice 
last Thursday and will continue practicing 
every Monday and Thursday evening until 
the end of the semester. Since few of the 
girls have had previous experience in com- 
petitive swimming, tryouts were not held. 
All interested swimmers were accepted. 
Training has begun with the basic skills of 
racing dives, turns, and strokes. The girls 
will swim the four racing strokes— front 
crawl, back crawl, breast stroke, and but- 
terfly. 

Actual uitercollegiate competition will be- 
gin next fall, but on March 22 the team 
will travel to Slippery Rock State College 
for a Water Day. Gold striped practice suits 
have been ordered and more equipment will 
be purchased next fall. A team name and 
captain will be chosen at tne next practice. 



Best of luck and student support is ex- 
tended to the Clarion wrestlers on the Cham- 
pionship Tournament this weekend. 

Keep your eyes open for the Miss CSC 
candidates on campus this week.

Wrestling Tourney Begins, 
Finals are Tomorrow at 8 p.m. 



At 2 p.m. this afternoon, the 25th Annual 
t'ennsylvania Conference Wrestling Champ- 
ionships began in Tippin Gymnasium. The 
two-day tournament's eliminatitm matches 
continue tonight at 8. and tomorrow alter- 
noon at 1. Tomorrow night at 8 wiU be the 
final round. 

Twelve wrestling squads from the state 
colleges are competing individually for the 
best state wrestlers in each weight class. 
Although Ix>ck Haven, who is undefeated and 
ranked ninth in the nation in NCAA play, 
Is the definite favorite to wtn w»p honors, 
a battle will be waged for second, third, 
and fourth places among East Stroudsburg. 
first in 1968, Bloomsburg, 196* third-place 
winner. Clarion, a fourth-place winner, and 
West Chester, who re-enters the tournament 
with a strong team after a few years absence. 

Weight-by-Weigbt 

An analysis of weight-by-weight partici- 
pants among the schools reveals some inter- 
esting facts which will lead to .some out- 
standing wrestling performances iu the tour- 
nament, especially in the final rounds. 

In the 115-pound class Don Fay, an unde- 
feated sophomore, looms as the favorite for 
the Lock Haven matmen. Cl<>se behind, Don 
will be Ted Pease, East Stroudsburg soidio- 
more whose only loss' was a 9-8 decision 
to Fay. Pease was the outstandWg freshman 
grappler at the West Point Plebe Tourna- 
ment in 1968. 

Other featherweights who could break 
through include Keith Taylcw, Bloomsburg, 
former conference runner-up back after two 
years absence; Phil Barwcdl, sophQmore hust- 
ler from West Chester;" Larry Harrington, 
Edinboro, and Glenn Miller, Shippeosburg, 
who has an impressive dual-nseet record. 

At 123 pounds, Kea Melcfaior ol Lock Haven 
is by far the favorite as the East's ohly 
defending NCAA champiom. The seoior from 
New York is undefeated and Ws only close 
match was an 11-8 decisi<* over Wayne Heim, 
Bloomsburg. Heim, secooid in 1968 to Melchior 
at 115 pounds, sixth in NAIA, and Wilkes 
Tournament champion, is close ott Melchior's 
heels. Ron Cruys, West Chester, who scored 
an upset victory over Heim in their recent 
tie match, 17-17, with Bloomsburg, is anottier 
top' contender. 

Others to watch are Bob Rosenfeld, Edin- 
boro, back after a year's absence and winner 
of a number of open tournaments in t^ie 
past year; Frank Pleva, Califwnia, third at 
123 in 1968; Thayne Nacter, Shippensbiu-g, 
fourth in 1968 at 115, and Walt §orber, Mans- 
field. 

In the 130-pound bracket, JUtk* Shane Fol- 
ey, Lock Havwi, leads the field. Second in 
conference in 1968 at 123 pounds, hi ts unde- 
feated in dual meets and has falls in all 
but one, when he scored a 4-0 decision over 
East Stroudsburg's Tom Best. Foley was al- 
so second in the Coast Guard tourney. Best, 
whose only loss was to Foley, is wwther 
great 130 pounder. 

Ron George, Slippery Rock, fourth at 123 
pounds in 1968, and Clarion's Gary Taylor 
will not escape notice. 

Rippey vs. Russof 

One of the greatest matches in State Col- 
lege Conference history could be repeated 
at 137 pounds by Lock Haven's Larry Rip- 
pey and Bloomsburg's Ron RusSO, who bat- 
tled to a 5-5 tie this season. 

Rippey is considered by many to be the 
outstanding sophomore wrestler in the nation. 
Undefeated, he was top wrestler in the Wilkes 
College tourney, often tagged by writers as 
the Rose Bowl of Wrestling. 

Close behind Rippey is his arch-adversary 
Russo, 1968 champion, second in the NAIA 
and sixth in the NCAA. The Ri^y-]|ij^so 
clash will give fans plenty to watch. 

Another top 137 pounder is Mike Bell, Kutz- 
town. Warren Zatezalo, California,, who has 
but one loss and Randy StiHe, ClaMoa jtuaor, 
who was second in 1968 and fotMh^ih the 
NAIA, are also top men in this rank. 

At 145 pounds it's a real tos8-up. Paul 
Broadmarkel, Lock Haven sophomore, is un- 
defeated in dual meets with one tie. Marvin 
Weinberg, West Chester, has wrestled all 
year at 152160, but will probably drop for this 
tourney. He was at this weight against East 
Stroudsburg when their Tom Huber tied him, 
1-1. 



Dan Rossi, East Stroudsburg, second at 
152 in 1968, has been plagued with injuries 
this year but will probably be ready for 
the tourney. 

Other scrappy 145 pounders are Rick Lep- 
ley, Bloomsburg; Dave Cook, California, third 
in the WQkes Tournament and who lost only 
to Clarion's Les Bressler; Jeff Ck)nnors, Mil- 
lersville, and sophomore Les Bressler, Cla- 
rion, whose only loss was to Lock Haven's 
Broadmarkel. 

Thompson Seems Top Choice 

At 152, Arnold Thompson, Bloomsburg, Wil- 
kes Tourney champion, seems to be top dog. 
Close behind is a tight field composed of 
Gene Taxis, Lock Haven sophomore: Tom 
Huber, outstanding sophomore at East 
Stroudsburg; Jack Pavella, California, whose 
only loss was to Clarion's Mark Dymond; 
Ken Warner, Shippensburg, fourth at 145 in 
1968; John Cowley, Mansfield; sophomore 
Mark Dymond, Clarion, who lost wily to Tax- 
is, and Charley Peck, MUlersville. 

At 160, there is Lock Haven's Willie Yokes, 
former Qearfield High School standout; Scott 
Grlscom, West Chester, who downed Yokes 
7-3 in dual meets; Bob Devore, East Strouds- 
burg, third at 160 in 1968; Jim Owen, Blooms- 
burg, fourth in 1968; Fred Holtz, Kutztown; 
John Helter, Shippensburg; Doug Niebel, Cla- 
rion, second in 1967 and fourth in 1968 at 
152 pounds whose only dual loss was to Owen, 
and Steve Scherfel, Millersville, second in 
1968 and enjoying a fine year. 

No easier to fathom is the 167-pound brac- 
ket. Promment is Santo Ricotta, Clarion, 
yvhose wily loss was to Pitt's AUen. Ricotta 
ranked second in 1968 and fifth in the NAIA. 

Another flashy lad m this category is BiU 
Rhodes, Lock Haven sophomore, unbeaten 
as a firosh, and winner of the West Point 
Plebe Tournament , he was tied by Clarion's 
Mark Dymond in his freshman year. 
• Others are Brian Cowley, West Chester; 
Mike Payer, Edinboro; Dennis Coffinberger, 
Millersville, and Milton Andrews, Blooms- 
burg, who moved to 177 pounds in his team's 
dual with Lock Haven and dealt Bob Metz 
his only dual loss. 

At 177 pounds is Bob Metz, Lock Haven 
senior with but one dual meet loss; Al Det- 
iviler, East Stroudsburg, 1968 champion who 
lost this year, 9-2, to West Chester's Brian 
Cowley, and Jeff Takacs, Kutztown. Dark 
Cowley, and Jeff Takacs, Kutztown. Dark 
hdrse here could be Henry Shaffer, Clarion, 
who lost a close one to Metz in i dual meet. 

Strong 1911b. Match 

At 191, sophomore Hank Hawkins, Lock 
Haven, was the only man to defeat Clarion's 
jack Riegel, freshman conference tourney 
^amp in 1968. Also ranking high is Riegel 
himself, who lost only to Hawkins and tied 
with John Arrigoni, California. Bruce Payer, 
Edinboro, second in the conference in 19- 
68, is likely to compete at 191 pounds this 
year. 

Others to watch are Gary Longanecker, 
West Chester, and Gary Bottinger, Mansfield, 
third at 191 in 1968. 

In the heavyweight class, Rich Schumac- 
her, East Stroudsburg, sixth in the NCAA, 
conference champion in 1968, and undefeated 
in duals this year, is the man to beat. Close 
behind is Jim McCue, Wilkes Tournament 
runner-up and third at West Point as a fresh- 
man. 

Others are Scott Brooks, Lock Haven so- 
phomore; Gary Holsopple, QariMi, who tied 
Brooks, lost to McCue and beat California's 
Glenn Powell, fourth in 1968 at 191 and him- 
self a strong contender in this class. 

Changes in standings as a result of the 
25th Annual State College Conference Tourna- 
ment seem to hinge on the efforts of the 
outstanding individual contenders. The talent 
is here to make one of the best tourneys 
in conference history.

Lock Haven is Favored to Win; 
CSC^s Team Chances are Doubtful 



By SUE FAIR 

A general look at the teams participating 
in the conference championships would have 
to include the fact that, since 1940, Lock 
Haven has won the coveted state college 
crown 13 times, Bloomsburg, five. West Ches- 
ter, three, Millersville. two. East Strouds- 
burg, one, and Clarion, one. These teams 
and six others will be trying to win and 
Improve their team positions since the 1968 
tournament. 

Lock Haven — 

This undefeated team, coached by Gray 
Simon, is expected to gain their 14th state 
college crown; however, if they should falter 
in their lightweights, any one of the four 
remaining top-notch teams (East Strouds- 
burg, Bloomsburg, Clarion, West Chester) 
could move up to the number two spot held 
by Lock Haven in the 1,968 tournament. 

East Stroudsburg— 

The first-place winner last year, this team, 
coached by Red Witman, could be the one 
to stop Lock Haven and make it possible 
for them or the other three to move up. 
East Stroudsburg is strong where Lock Ha- 
ven is strong— in the lighter weights. East 
Stroudsburg also has other boys in the upper 
weights, led by returning letterman and sixth- 
place winner in NCAA, Rich Schumacher, 
who are possible placers. The team has an 
advantage in that it has wrestled a tough 
schedule against such teams as Oregon State 
and Iowa State; therefore they have been 
exposed to tough competition. 

Bloooisburg^ 

This team probably has the best chance 
to move up since it gave Lock Haven its 
most difficult time in dual meets. Coached 
by Russ Houk, they have three returning 
place-winners from 1968, including Ron Russo 
at 137 pounds and Wayne Heim at 123 pounds. 

It is very hard to decide between West 
Chester, who could very easily play the role 
of the spoiler in determining the top five 
positions, and Bloomsburg, since in their <kial 
meet they tied at 17-17. 

darioor— 

This young squad has the advantage of 
being in friendly territory. The team hit an 
all-time low in their loss to Bloomsburg, 30-7, 
but it is felt by Coaches Robert Bubb and 
Neil Turner that this loss was the beginning 
of what they want to build on— of building 
a firm foundatitm upon which will reflect 
the future of Clarion State wrestling and 
which has reflected the performance of the 
squad since that date. They ended the season 
with an 11-3 record. Clarion wrestlers will 
just have to wrestle them one at a time 
and see whtft happens. 

California— 

The Vulcan squad seeks to move from their 
fifth position in 1968 with some outstanding 
individual wrestlers. They enter the tourna- 
ment with a 9-2 record; however, they do 
not wrestle any of the top five teams, except 
Clarion, in regular dual meets. Clarion de- 
feated them, 26-10, knocking off several of 
their previously undefeated wrestlers. It is 
still possible for California to improve their 
position, if the cards fall right. The coach 
is Frank Yulcano. 

MUlersville— 

Even though they are entering the tourna- 
ment with their best season in years, it is 
doubtful that they are a serious threat, but 
they should, improve on their sixth place 
standing from 1968. The team is coached 
by Jack Raber. 

Mansfield— 

Tpe squad, coached by Henry Shaw, may 
have trouble holding their seventh place slot 
if the dual meet record is any. indication. 
They slipped from a 7-7 record in 1968 to 
a 3-10 record this year. However, they had 
problems with injuries. It will depend on 
their outstanding performers, like Gary Bot- 
tlinger at 191 pounds. 



I^lppensburg- 

Their eighth-place standing in 1968 was a 
below par performance for the Red Raiders, 
and their coach. Bill Corman. They have 
shown considerable improvement since Cla- 
rion defeated them, 35-6, in December. The 
team's performance will almost certainly 
cause some team to move down. 

Edinboro— 

They can be seen in the same light as 
Shippensburg, but they are also difficult to 
evaluate since they do not wrestle any of 
the top teams except Clarion, who defeated 
them 37-6 in early February, again beating 
some of their top wrestlers. Although expo- 
sure to tough competition is important, Ed- 
inboro wrestlers have the potential to make 
their presence felt. Fred Caro is the Coach. 

Kutztown and SUppery Rock— 

These teams fall into the same category 
since Coaches Fred Powell, Slippery Rock, 
and Dan Hinkel, Kutztown, are both attempt- 
ing to build up the sport of wrestling at 
the respective schools. Both teams enter the 
tourney with the hopes of several individuals 
doing well and the teams improving their 
tenth and eleventh place showing of last year. 

Many times a ooy jrom a weaker team 
can be the determining factor in where the 
championships come to rest. A little bit of 
glory for any of the schools who are consid- 
ered out of the championship race could re- 
sult in a loss of honors for any of the top 
teams.

3 Excellent Wrestlers Participate 




KEN MELCHIOR — Lock Haven 






RON RUSSO — Bloomsburg 



THAYNE NADER — Shippensburg 



THREE STRONG WRESTLERS featured in the conference championships 
are Ken Melchior, Lock Haven, at 123 lbs. Ken is undefeated and NCAA 
titalist in 1968; Ron Russo, Bloomsburg's 137-pounder, who is an NCAA 
i^xth place winner, and Thayne Nader of Shippensburg at 123 lbs., who 
will probably wrestle Ken Melchior. 



BOB SCHMIDT 

Although Bob has not seen much action 
this season due to an injury, he is a very 
valuable member of the team. Bob has the 
rare talent that is found in an effective lead- 
er. Wrestling, as in other sports, needs an 
abundance of team spirit. Bob has the ability 
to bring his teammates to the high pitch 
of enthusiasm necessary to win the toughest 
matches. Coach Bubb considers his co-cap- 
tain to be a strong competitor, bom lealer, 
and key wrestler for the Eagles.

Election Recount Granted; 
Nine Senators Listed 



The Student Senate, in its regular meeting 
Wednesday, granted a request for a recount 
of the Senate election to Marianne Delp, 
a candidate in the recent election. Marianne 
received 180 votes on the first count and 
requested the recount because of the one 
vote dillerence between her total votes and 
those of Connie Alexis who received 181 votes. 

The recount will take place at 9 tomorrow 
morning in the Bccht Senate room. Only 
Marianne Delp's and Connie Alexis' votes 
will be recounte<l. 

After the discussion concerning the recount, 
Senator Judy Macuga, chairman of the elec- 
tion commitee, moved to validate the Senate 
elections as they stand until results of the 
recount are known. 

The ten can^dates who received the high- 
est number of votes were to be named as 
Senators and the next five highest number 
of votes determined the alternate list of Sen- 
ators. The ten highest number of votes ranged 
from 411 to, 181 voies. 

Results NOT Final 

Although the election results will not be 
finalized until next week, a tentative list 
of nine Senators is available. It is almost 
certain that Marg Butler, Leslie Hudak, Jan 
Johnston, Mary Lou McCauliff, Bob Oberdorf, 
Janet Peters, Cyril (Bud) Schmader, Wil- 
liam Stumpf, and Ray Yutzy will be named 
Senators. 

The tenth Senator will be determined by 
the results of the recount between Marianne 
Delp and Connie Alexis. 

Alternate senators include Pam Mattern, 
Tony Mattern, Randy Searight, Owen Win- 
ters and either Marianne Delp or Connie 
Alexis, depending on the results of the re- 
count. 

In other Senate business. Senator Don 
Kress moved that the Student Senate request 
President Gemmell and the Clarion State Col- 
lege Board of Trustees to increase the ac- 
tivity fee for the 1969-70 academic year from 
$25 to $30 per semester with all $30 going 
to the fee-supported fund. The motion passed 
unanimously. 

The increase is necessary to better meet 
the budget requests which total more than 
$200,000. As a matter of procedure and auth- 
orization, President Gemmell must approve 
the suggested increase and then the request 
must go before the Board of Trustees for 
approval. Should the request for the increase 
in the activities fee not be approved, the 
finance committee will have only about $159,- 
000 with which to work. Therefore, any budget 



requests above this amou.it will have to 
be cut. 

Explanation Requested 

Senator Pat Losik suggested that an ex- 
planation lor the increase in the activities 
fee be made to the student body. 

The Senate also unanimously approved 
three other motions made by Don Kress, 
a member of the finance committee. 

First, he moved to leave the word "inter- 
collegiate" in the title of the Women's Inter- 
collegiate Swim Team and put this organiza- 
tion under the athletic department's budget. 
Had "intercollegiate" been removed from 
the title, the Women's Athletic Association 
would be required to finance the team. 

Second, Kress moved to designate the Cla- 
rion Laboratory Band as a budgetable organi- 
zation. Recognition by the Student Senate 
was necessary before the band could receive 
funds from the Student Association. The Lab 
Band operates as a musical ensemble inde- 
pendent of the College Band and Orchestra 
and has been in existence at Clarion since 
October 1968. 

Lab Band Aided 

Third, Senator Kress moved to allocate 
$50 to the Lab Band to help cover the expen- 
ses for the rest of this academic year. It 
was pointed out that the organization, until 
now, has existed solely on the money con- 
tributed by Rex Mitchell, conductor of the 
Lab Band. 

President Tom Paolino appointed Senators 
Kress, Macuga, Moars, and himself as ad- 
visors to the new finance committee only 
until the 1969-70 budget is completed. 

As a result of a motion made by Senator 
Pam Mattern, the constitution committee will 
remain the same until the new constitution 
is completed. There is a stipulation that 
any interested new senator could be appoint- 
ed to the committee. Presaotl^, the com- 
mittee consists of Senators Tony Mattern as 
chairman, Pam Mattern, and Marg Butler. 
According to Pam, rewriting of the constitu- 
tion of the Clarion Students' Association is 
in its final stages. 

Senator Marg Butler will remain as Cla- 
rion's campus coordinator whose job It is 
to correspond with representatives of other 
state colleges in order to keep abreast of 
current activities at the other collegea. 

Seven students attended the next to the 
last meeting of the current Senate. Those 
attending as guests included: Larilyn An- 
dre, Marianne Delp, Jan Johnston, Bud Sch- 
mader, Don Sheridan, Tom Somefs, and John 
Turner. 



hcidents Lead to Hearing; 
Gammas Reprimanded^ Advised 



By SANDY DIESEL 

On Tuesday the college issued a strong 
reprimand to the members of Alpha Gamma 
Phi fraternity due to incidents occurring on 
Feb. 17, 20, and 24. The Gammas were ad- 
vised to revamp their pledge program and 
to submit their revision to the sub-committee 
for fraternities and sororities. The fraternity 
was warned that if similar incidents occur- 
red, the lifting of their charter would be 
considered. 

The sub-committee for fraternities and sor- 
orities met as a result of incidents occurring 
on Feb. 17, in Tippin Gymnasium and Feb. 
20, and 24 in the Student Union involving 
members of Alpha Gamma Phi fraternity. 

The committee members present at the 
hearing were: Donald A. Nair, associate dean 
of student affairs, chairman; Betty Reisman, 
Ethel Varro, and George Curtis, assistant 
deans of student affairs; and Edward Duffy, 
associate professor of history. Student com- 
mittee members present were: Larry Hanna, 
Lynn Myers, Tom Parsons, Judy Michalic, 
and Pam Grantham. 

Present on behalf of the Gammas were: 
Emmett Graybill, associate professor of poli- 
tical science; Lester Moody, professor of 
English; and Robert Ament, president of Al- 
pha Gamma Phi. 

Donald Leas, director of health, physical 
education and recreation, and Thaddeus 
Droast, head of the security office, were 
called in for questions during the hearing. 

A letter dated Feb. 28 was sent to Mr. 
Ament. In this letter, charges were made 
about the unscheduled use of college facili- 
ties, misuse of college facilities, actions and 
language that residted in embarrassment to 
faculty memt>ers, initiation activities which 
could have resulted in injury to the partici- 
pants, and disorderly conduct. During the 
course of the hearing the third charge was 
changed to read language that resulted in 
embarrassment to faculty members. The 
Gammas were found guilty of only the last 
two charges. 

On the evening of Feb. 17 some of the 



members of Alpha Gamma Phi fraternity 
and their pledge class were using the south 
gym in Tippin Gymnasium for calisthenics 
and an exercise period. Members of the 
physical education department (Frances Sho- 
pe and Judy Brown) called Mr. Leas who 
in turn called Mr. Droast because of vulgar 
and profane language used by the Gammas 
and their pledges. 

The above incident resulted in the com- 
plaints concerning their actions, the illegal 
use of the building for initiation activites, 
the profane language, and the misuse of 
college facilities. 

On Feb. 18 it was called to Mr. Droast's 
attention that a greasy substance (Crisco) 
was found on the mats. This was later remov- 
ed by the custodians. 

About 3 p.m. Feb. 20, Mr. Droast reported 
that he walked into the Union and witnessed 
what appeared to be a fight. Anthony Genis, 
a pledge of the Gammas, appeared to be 
thrown backwards out of the men's restroom 
and in the process fell on his back. This 
incident was reported as being a pledge 
ordeal. 

Again on Feb. 24 at 3 p.m., Mr. Droast 
entered the Union and saw Anthony Gen- 
is und other members of the pledge class 
standing against a wall shouting. At the ap- 
pearance of Mr. Droast the shouting ceased. 

The two above incidents resulted in com- 
plaints that were due to unnecessary ac- 
tions causing an annoyance to others created 
by the Gammas. 

Mr. Curtis read the charges brought against 
the fraternity and then he read several mem- 
os relating to the above incidents. Mr. Leas 
and Mr. Droast were then brought in to 
answer any questions the committee had. 

Mr. Graybill, the spokesman for the Gam- 
mas, refuted the charges brought against the 
memers of Alpha Gamma Phi. Mr. Curtis 
and Mr. Graybill then presented brief sum- 
mations. 

After a 35-minute deUberation, the verdict 
was presented which was accepted by Mr. 
Graybill and Mr. Ament. 



State Needs to 'Catch Up'; 
Prexy Defends '69-70 Budget 



"Pennsylvania is behind the times and 
needs to catch up." This is the tlieme. Presi- 
dent James Gemmell used in his defense 
of the 1969-70 budget requests of the 13 state 
colleges and Indiana University of Pennsyl- 
vania when he acted as a spokesman before 
the Senate appropriations committee on Tues- 
day in Harrisburg. 

The president, who is currently serving 
as chairman of the budget and fees com- 
mittee of the board of state college presi- 
dents, told the committee that Governor Sha- 
fer approved a budget that indicates a 37 
percent increase in aid tor the insti|utions, 
but only eight percent of this increase is 
usable. 

The budget calls for $83.8 million in state 
funds, which shows an increase of 28.3 million 
over the year's appropriation. But President 
Gemmell pointed out that many items are 
included in the budget which are not covered 
in the current budget. 

President Gemmell based his plea to have 
the original request of 84,455,127 approved 
on the state colleges' need "to catch up 
and move ahead" in educational opportuni- 
ties. 

Unless the $12.7 million is restored to the 
budget, as many as 4,000 freshmen will be 
rejected for admission to the state colleges 
in September, according to President Gem- 
mell. He also stated that many upperclass- 
men \Ail be forced to drop out of school 
unless the proposed severe cuts in student 
employment funds are not realized. 



President Gemmell provided committee 
members with an illustrated booklet pointing 
out graphically and statistically Pennsylvan- 
ia's need to "catch up and to move ahead" 
in providing better opportunities for higher 
education. 

The report further showed the need to 
provide adequate equipment to support the 
instructional mission of the state colleges, 
but indicatetl the Governor's recommended 
budget for 1969-70 will not permit them to 
"catch up," much less "move ahead," in 
bringing old programs up to date, implement- 
ing approved programs and adding new ones. 

A startling contrast between state related 
and state owned colleges and universities 
as to tax supported operating budgets was 
pointed out, with the former receiving $124.6 
million in 1968-69 as opposed to the latter. 
State aided colleges and universities were 
shown to have received $23.3 million. 

Insufficient maintenance, inadequate staff- 
ing, security and technical support all came 
into the picture as end results of the Gover- 
nor's budget cuts. 

Libraries were s,een as falling below Am- 
erican Library Association standards, while 
science instruction and facilties would be 
impaired and a variety of other essential pro- 
grams significantly hampered. 

President Gemmel will also appear befoie 
the House of Representatives hearing on 
March 19 to review the budget request.

OPINION POLL 



Some Students Would Appreciate 
Drop in Current Voting Age 



By ROSEMARY SLEBODNIK 

An editorial is printed on the second page 
of today's Call which may well concern all 
of us. It deals with a State House bill which 
advocates the lowering of the voting age 
in Pennsylania to 18, 19. or 20. Students 
were asked this question in order to get 
their reactions to this timely topic: "Do 
you feel the voting age in Pennsylvania 
should be lowered to 18?" 

Joe Robosky: "Yes, because students are 
more intelligent today than those who were 
21 several years ago. College-age students 
have more contact with the world and are 
more aware of what is happening now." 

Rich Rogers: "No, I don't feel that the 
voting age should be lowered, because I 
don't feel that at 18 one has enough intelli- 
gence or enough knowledge of the world 
to vote." 

Ed Douglas: "Yes, definitely. I feel that 
If a person is old enough to fight, he is 
old enough to vote (and drink legally) at 
18. I don't see any difference in maturity 
between the ages of 18 and 21." 

Ida Fetter: "I think it slwuld be lowered 
to 19. People are more mature after a year 
out of high school, and they don't usually 



go into the service until they are 19, anyway." 
Marcia Berlin: "I feel that it should be 
lowered. If a man can die for his country, 
he can also vote for the governing powers 
of his country. Students just out of high 
school have just had a course in P. CD., 
and they are aware of the political situation. 
I don't really think there's much of an age 
difference between those 18 and those 21." 

Joyce Bloiigh: "I've always felt that 21 
was the right age. At 18, many are imma- 
ture, but at 21, more may be able to make 
decisions, simply because they've lived long- 
er." 

Rick McWilliams: "If you're old enough 
to fight, your old enough to vote." 

I^e (pinions are varied. Some, such as 
Rick's, are more strongly expressed than 
others. Nevertheless, students should care- 
fully examine the reasons for and against 
lowering the voting age, formulate their op- 
inicms, and then express them, whatever they 
may be, to their representatives. These men 
will be voting on a bill which concerns us, 
the youth of today How can they represent 
our wishes and our opinions if we do not 
let ttiem know how we feel about such a 
a crucial piece of legislature?

Bohlen^ Kim Perform Wednesday; 
Combined Recital is 'Memorable^ 



By EDWARD RONCONE 
Assistant Professor of Music 

Wednesday evening in the Chapel, Chris- 
tian Bohlen, clarinetist, and Bong Hi Kim, 
pianist, faculty members of the Clarion State 
Music Department, combined to give a mem- 
orable recital. 

Mr. Bohlen opened the program with one 
of the landmarks of the clarinet literature 
— CJoncerto in E-flat Major, Opus 74, by Carl 
Maria von Weber. This virtuoso piece, im- 
flj^cably played, got the program off to a 
flying start. 

In the concerto, Bohlen displayed an admir- 
able technique and a warm, well-coutrolled 
tone throughout the three registers of the 
instrument. He went from the low (chala- 
meau), middle to high, effortlessly. Outstand- 
ing was* the romanza movement with its 
haunting long-spun phrases, done in cameo 
fashion by the soloist. 

The concerto was brought to a stunning 
conclusion with an unusual recitative and 
cadenza. Mrs. Kim etched out tlie accom- 
paniment in true orchestral fashion, no mean 
pianistic feat. 

The Robert Schumann Fantasy Pieces, Op- 
us 73, which followed the concerto, were true 
songs without words, providing a weaving 
together of the two instruments. The IjTical 
quality was captured with great subtlety by 
Mr. Bohlen throughout the three movements. 

His dynamics and understanding of the 
cross rhythms and the shifting colors were 
made abundantly clear to the listeners. This 
reviewer was made aware of how completely 
Schumann was forenmner of Brahms In 
concept and style. At all times, Mrs. Kim 
provided a sensitive counterpart to the clar- 




inetist's magnificent nuance and plastic 
phrasing. 

After intermission, we were treated to the 
Sonata in E-Flat Major, Opus 167, by Ca- 
mille Saint-Saens, the French composer and 
organist, well remembered for his lavish 
opera, "Samson and Delilah," and for the 
popular descriptive suite "Carnival of the 
Animals." In the sonata, Mr. Bohlen did, 
indeed, capture the light French tone in 
delineating this work. His beautiful low re- 
gister was particularly evident in the lento 
movement. 

In the allegro animato lus staccato tech- 
nique was displayed in brilliant fashion; and 
the running arpeggios of the molto allegro, 
played at an even dynamic level, brought 
the piece to a shimmering, impressionistic 
close. As always, Mrs. Kim's pianistic colla- 
boration was a joy to hear, musically and 
technically. 

To close the program, Mr. Bohlen selected 
the Tombeau de Ravel by the contemporary 
English composer, Arthur Benjamin. As with 
the opening work, this, too, is a virtuosic 
display piece. It consists of a series of six 
waltzes in contrasting tempos and moods, 
prefaced by an introduction and concluding 
with a finale. This work written in memory 
of Ravel is obviously inspired by that com- 
poser's orchestral composition "La Valse." 

Mr. Bohlen herein gave proof of complete 
mastery of the technical demands of this 
work; and, skillfully aided by Mrs. Kim, 
projected the variety of tonal moods, con- 
trasting coloring and sensitive interpretation 
inherent in this unusual series of miniatures. 

The audience was most appreciative of 
the fine performance offered by tJiese excel- 
lent musicians.

Editorially 
Speaking 



Lovfer Voting Age Would Create 
Deep Sense of Responsibility 
In The Governmental Process 



The Call recently received a state- 
ment from Milton Shaff, chairman of 
the Pennsylvania democratic study 
committee of the Pennsylvania House 
of Representatives. 

Mr. Shaff reported that he is in 
favor of the 18-year-old voting age. 
He stated that "most of the present 
youth protest appeal's to be revolting 
against a society that persists in deny- 
ing it a meaningful role." For this rea- 
son, he favors more student participa- 
tion in government, and he feels that 
a lowered voting age could possibly 
"draw youths into political process by 
giving them greater political responsi- 
bility." 

Most of today's youth ai'e not, ac- 
cording to Mr. Shaff, "engaged in re- 
bellion," but rather protest only when 
they feel that there is no other way to 
obtain justice. If the doors of the po- 
licital process are shut to the 18, 19, or 
20-year-old college student, the time 
when students are most willing (and 
often most able) to participate in gov- 
ernment is lost. 

Mr. Shaff further pointed out that 
a lowered voting age could lead to the 
"creation of new kinds of political 
organizations on campus." These 
groups, could, in turn, work with eld- 
ers and would earn their respect be- 
cause students WQUld-Jjecome "issue- 
oriented." 

Mr. Shaff goes on to say that the 
nation's youth are old enough to fight, 
and are old enough to sacrifice their 
lives in the nations service. Young 
people of 18 are also old enough to 
study and to learn about the nature of 
the adult society in^, college, and many 



are old enough to work as adults in 
society. In short, he sums up his argu- 
ment by maintaining that "if youth is 
old enough to work at an adult's task, 
it is old enough to vote." 

Many of Clarion's students are 
now at an age where this issue of drop- 
ping the voting age is a crucial one. It 
is a real issue that affects each stu- 
dent independently. A change in this 
law could give students a deep sense 
of responsibility toward government. 
It could make students take more in- 
terest in what is happening in the world 
because they will be actively participat- 
ing in the political process. 

It is easy to say that the voting 
age should be lowered, but just saying 
' it won't produce results. If the stu- 
dents want their voices to be heard in 
their government, they should be wil- 
' ling to do something about it. 

For this reason, it may be advan- 
tageous to find out which representa- 
tives and senators (both state and na- 
tional) are in favor of a lowered voting 
r age, and to write them letters support- 
ing these bills. Letters could also be 
'written to those officials who oppose 
' this new measure with the intention 
.of persuading them to alter their stand, 
. or to make them realize how concerned 
their young constituents are. 

If the Clarion student feels that 
this bill is necessary, he has a responsi- 
bility to make his views known. In the 
words of Mr. Shaff, today's youth are 
"old enough to have a voice in shaping 
change." But students must realize 
that a silent voice will never be heard.

Press Should Not be Scolded 
For Use of Four-Letter Words 
If They Are Part of The News 



Recently State Rep. Russell J, La- 
Marca, Reading Democrat, called for 
colleges to rid their newspapers of 
"smut" and the use of four-letter 
words. LaMarca feels that if they (the 
college press) continue to use obscen- 
ity, they should then forgo the use of 
state revenue. He is quoted as saying 
about Pitt: "I don't feel like sending 
$38 million to a university that doesn't 
know what good taste is, and doesn't 
have the guts to inform its students 
what good taste is." (Post Gazette, Feb- 
ruary 19, 1969) 

Mr. LaMarca appears to be for- 
getting exactly what the duties of a 
state legislator are. It is the responsi- 
bility of the legislators to make the 
laws, not enforce them. If they could 
enforce the laws, they could do it , 
only through the use of intimidation 
and reprimand. 

Obscenity has not as yet been de- 
fined to the point where it is clear as ' 
to what is vulgar and what is in good 
taste. If a four-letter word is essential 
to the effectiveness of the writing as 
an academic endeavor, it should be ' 
printed. But if the four-letter word 
was only used as an attention getting 



device or used only to shock the read- 
ers, it should be avoided. 

Ken Kolecko, a Pitt student and 
member of the Alternatives editorial 
board, said, "Our point is not to go 
around printing obscenities, but we will 
print any articles submitted as long as 
they do not violate civil or criminal 
law." (Post-Gazette, February 20, 1969) 

The editors of the college press 
should have the authority to print what 
they feel is newsworthy. The editori- 
al positions are usually filled by re- 
sponsible, level-headed students who 
are mature enough to decide what is in 
poor taste and what is not. 

If state legislators such as Mr. La- 
Marca feel that it is their duty to cen- 
sor student publications, couldn't they 
also repress other news? Our freedom 
of expression is guaranteed in the First 
Amendment of the Constitution as long 
as it does not infringe upon the rights 
of others. Is it not the right of stu- 
dents and others to be made aware 
of what is going on in their society? 
And if four-letter words are a legiti- 
mate part of the news, then they should 
be printed.

Letters to The Editor 



*/n White America* Cast 
ISeeds Your Help 

Editor, The Call: 

In September of 1937, I stood beside an 
attractive young lady named Connie Carter. 
We shared a Methodist hymnal and a mutual 
joy in singing. A ter church I asked Miss 
Carter if she would be interested in working 
on a Headers Theatre project entitled: IN 
WHITE AMEP.ICA. I told her about my work 
in Negro Theatre and how it had led to 
a doctoral dissertation entitled The Nature of 
the Negro Hero in American Twentieth Cen- 
tury Literature. 

By October a cast of four had been select- 
ed. They were George Hall, Bill Demma, 
Linda Kramich and Connie Carter. The pur- 
pose of their efforts was to present IN 
WHITE AMERICA at the Temple University 
Oral Interpretative Reading Festival being 
held in November. That was to be the begin- 
ning and the end of it. Little did any of us 
know it was to be only the beginning of it. 
The Temple University audience was ecstatic 
and rose to their feet with wild enthusiastic 
applause. The Clarion College Readers had 
no concept of what had hit them. We only 
knew the Clarion Readers' IN WHITE 
AMERICA had been born. 

Following the initial performance. The 
Readers received invitations to appear at 
the Eastern States Speech Association Con- 
vention held in New York City in March 
1968, and at Kutztown State College in April; 
also an invitation to do a paid performance 
at Suffolk Community College in Long Island, 
New York, in May. 

But, it was their commanding performance 
in the College Chapel that prompted .Mr. 
David Christie-Murray to invite them to tour 
IN WHITE AMERICA in England this spring. 
David believed the play would aid the British 
students in bettor understanding racial pro- 
blems that exist not only in the U.S. but 
also in England. 

The cast will leave for England on May 
10, IF they can manage to earn $3,000 to 
cover the cost of their travel expenses— by 
giving weekend performances throughout the 
state and a special performance in the Chapel 
this spring, by hiring themselves out to do 
spring clean-up jobs, by selling candy, and 
by relying on the generosity of students, 
faculty, and members of the community. 

IN WHITE AMERICA, written by Martin 
Duberman, is a historically documented play 
of the social evolution of the Negro from 
the days of slavery up to the present time. 
It is a story that renders a factual yet 
vivid account of many incidents of a tragic 
past that have erupted into today's social 
crisis. Believing that a more accurate under- 
standing of the history of the Negro race 
in the United States can be gained by people 
in other parts of the world, the College 
Readers want very much to make this tour 
happen. 

If you, too, would like to help make the 
tour happen, you can— by sending a cash 
contribution to the Clarion Readers now and 
by buying Pollywogs, now on sale. If you 
don't know what a PoUywog is, you soon 
will. 

Your generosity will contribute not only 
to the educational broadening of these vital 
readers but also to the advancement of Amer- 
ican ideals and the improvement of racial 
relations through understanding. 

Please help IN WHITE AMERICA tour 
Great Britain by sending your contribution 
now to Clarion Readers, Music Hal.l

Opinions Wanted 

Editor, The Call: 

Thank you for your coverage of the Miguel 
Rubio concert. It is likely that you will 
be hearing from Professor Diaz y Diaz and 
Garcia concerning the fact that Rubio is 
not a flamenco guitarist at all (the review 
refers to his fine flamenco style). I am 
not so concerned with that here as with 
making note of the splendid job that Profes- 
sors Diaz y Diaz and Garcia did as hosts 
for Senor Rubio. My committee has not had 
such enthusiastic cooperation from any fa- 
culty members in my time. 

We have not signed a contract with anyone 
yet, but it is likely that we will have a 
harpsichordist or a baroque trio later in the 
term. The committee will be meeting soon 
to plan concerts for next year. Any students 
or faculty with ideas about what they would 
like to have can find me in the library 
any day of the week. I should be especially 
p'eased if the student members of the com- 
mittee who were appointed last year would 
contact me. 

ROGER HORN, Chairman 
Cultural Affairs Committee 

Thanks Extended 

Editor, The Call: 

I would like to take this opportunity to 
express my deepest appreciation for the ex- 
cellent cooperation given to mc by various 
members of the faculty, staff, members of 
the wrestling squad, and those students who 
helped to make the Pennsylvania State Col- 
lege Wrestling Tournament on Feb. 28 and 
March 1 a big success. 

I especially wish to congratulate Coach 
Bubb and Coach Turner for the tremendous 
job they did in helping me in organizing 
and conducting the tournament. The many 
hours that they spent in preparing for this 
event helped in making it a success. 

No director of athletics has ever had more 
willing assistance and dedication to a cause 
than was demonstrated by all these people. 

Coach Bubb and his wrestling team are 
to be congratulated in finishing second in 
the tournament. The fine performance dis- 
played by his wrestlers is an indication that 
our wrestling program here at Clarion State 
College ranks among the best in the country. 

Finally, I wish to pay tribute to our stu- 
dents who were in attendance during each 
session of the tournament for the support 
they gave our team. 

FRANK LIGNELLI, 
Director of Athletics

Campus Kaleidoscope 



By SHERRY LEHMAN 

"Freedom is Hours," the title of an article 
in the Indiana Peiui of Feb. 21, expresses 
the delighted sentiments of the female part 
of the student body at Indiana University 
of Pennsylvania. 

The article is the harbinger of the new 
women's hour regulations; the entire system 
is too complex to outline fully, but here 
are some of the main points: women over 
21, and seniors also, have no hours at all 
on Saturday or Sunday nights; sophomores 
and juniors haven't any curfew on Friday 
or Saturday nights. 

Freshmen alone are restricted, and even 
they are provided with unlimited signouts 
for overnights. The possibility of a key sys- 
tem for late returners is being investigated; 
at the moment, though the doors are locked 
at 12 midnight Sunday through Thursday, 
and 2 a.m. on weekends, a buddy system 
has been established by which a girl re- 
turning after closing can page a "buddy" 
and have her admit her to the dorm. 

Curfew Debate Continues 

Other curfew news comes from Grove City 
College. They are in the midst of a "great 
debate" over curfew aboUshment, spurred 
by the recent national trend toward a no- 
hours policy for many college women. Us- 
ually freshman women are the only students 



who do not benefit from such policies. Buck- 
nell and Carnegie- Mellon University are two 
nearby colleges that advocate the no-hours 
policies. 

The Grove City Collegian included the fol- 
lowing about the new relaxation of curfew 
laws, excerpted from a letter to parents 
of Bucknell women from Mary Jane Steven- 
son, Dean of Women there: "There is an 
'. . . increasing belief that rigid rules, or 
those externally imposed, neither realistically 
protect individuals nor foster personal 
growth. As a matter of fact, such rules 
may tend to hamper emotional growth and 
the development of a mature sense of respon- 
sibility.' " 

Want Teacher Evaluation 

East Stroudsburg State College voiced its 
complaint about faculty incompetence in an 
editorial in the Stroud Courier aptly titled 
"Incompetent Educators Breed Apathy" (or) 
"The Good, the Bad, and the Boring." The 
purpose of the article was to suggest to 
professors that they allow students in their 
classes to file criticisms of their courses, 
the methods of evaluation used by each pro- 
fessor, and the students' opinions of their 
particular professors. These criticisms would 
not be just for the teacher's personal inter- 
est, but they would be hon^et ideas and 
suggestions for bettering each professor's 
course and grading system. 



Faculty Senate Discusses 
Credit by Examination 



By NANCI OAKES 

At its February 24 meeting, the Faculty 
Senate discussed credit by examination, a 
new "biomethods" course, the Clarion Call, 
and parking regulations. 

Dr. Daniel Shirey, Senate chairman, an- 
nounced that a college policy about credit 
by examination had been approved by the 
Faculty Senate at its April 24, 1964, meeting. 
According to this policy, "if a student wishes 
to secure credit for a course in which he 
believes he has already attained proficiency 
he may apply to the Dean of Instruction 
to take an examination designed to demon- 
strate proficiency. 

Will Consider Request 

"The dean and the chairman of the depart- 
ment in which the course is listed will de- 
termine the validity of the request. Consider- 
ation will be given to first semester fresh- 
men who have scored 550 or better on both 
parts of SAT or to others who have a quality 
point average of 3.00 or better." 

If the student's application is approved, 
the student must (1) register for the course 
in the Dean^of Instruction's Office, (2) pay 
a basic fee rate of $15 per credit or a 
minimum of $45 per course in the business 
office, (3) arrange with the department chair- 
man for a conference with the instructor 
who will be in charge of the course exam- 
ination. 

Then, upon completion of any course re- 
quirements specified by the department in- 
volved, the student will be permitted to take 
the comprehensive examination for credit. 
Grades received in this manner will be cred- 
ited toward fulfillment of graduation require- 
ments. But a student is limited to 18 credits 
by examination, and the examinations are 
to be given early in September and Feb- 
ruary. 

Discuss Biomethods Course 

The Senate also discussed the Biomethods 
course, which had been proposed to the Fa- 
culty Senate on May 13, 1968, and then, 
tabled. Biomethods is the proposed substitute 
for Methods of Teaching and Evaluating Sci- 
ence. 

It would be a three-semester hour, five 
clock-hour course described as "Modern con- 
cepts of biology teaching. An examination 
of the major concepts, materials and techni- 
ques that permeate the modern biology pro- 
grams and experience in the investigatory 
approach to teaching biology, facilitated 



through laboratory, field, and simulated 
teaching experiences." 

The course, a requirement for education- 
biology majors, would also be taken by com- 
prehensive science majors in fulfillment of 
the educational methods requirement. 

Chairman Shirey read the objections to 
this proposal from the physics and chemistry 
departments and Professor Mechling defend- 
ed the suggested course. Some of the objec- 
tions were: the five class hours would set 
an unnecessary precedent for other methods 
courses; the physics and chemistry depart- 
ments would be left without a methods cour- 
se; the biology majors already had enough 
laboratory experience from their other clas- 
ses; and the additional costs of a five class 
hour course. 

Feel Course is Necessary 

Some of the arguments for the course were 
that prospective biology teachers need a me- 
thods course which has special relevance 
for them and that the present Methods of 
Teaching and Evaluating Science course is 
"neither laboratory-oriented nor does it treat 
in depth the teaching of particular areas 
such as biology, chemistry or physics; ra- 
ther, it deals with materials and methods 
common to all." 

After tills discussion. President James 
Gemmell pointed out that the science depart- 
ment as a whole should have reached a 
decision on the proposal before asking the 
Faculty Senate to make a judgement. Tlie 
proposal was finally referred to the combined 
biology, chemistry and physics departments, 
which were asked to report back to -the 
Senate. 

Then Richard Redfern, Call advisor asked 
the Senate for any comments about the for- 
mat, functions and news coverage of the 
Clarion Call. Andor P-Jobb, senator repre- 
senting the art department, commented that 
while on trips to other campuses he had 
heard compliments about the Call. Inez Ba- 
ker, senator from the division of communi- 
cations, expressed her opinion that the idea 
of a page for discussion of significant ideas 
was interesting; for example, the article by 
Alonzo Myers on which students and faculty 
.commented. 

The last business of the meeting was ap- 
proval of Dr. Hilton's recommendations on 
the recommendations of the ad hoc parking 
committee.

Student Teacher Ftacement 
Here Discussed in Detail 



By SHERRY LEHMAN 

Dr. William J. Page, director of student 
teaching and placement, discussed Tuesday 
the policies of placing Clarion's student teach- 
ers. Among the subjects he clarified were 
the criteria for a student teacking assign- 
ment, the new experimental process of giving 
students their choice of placement arsas, 
and the present method of administering pra- 
cticum. 

According to Dr. Page, students register 
for student teaching in late February or 
early March for the following academic year. 
The first students to be selected from the 
list of registrants for placement are those 
who are quahfied for graduation in January 
and Ux whom student teaching is their last 
semester. The next students chosen are those 
with the highest scholastic averages^ and 
about half the applicants from each subject 
area are taken. 

This year, for the first time, students are 
asked for their choices concerning pUce- 
ment. TTiis new process is experimental, in 
that it will be discontinued if it proves un- 
satisfactory to the majority of applicants. 
The choice sheets are merely a preference 
notification for the placement officials. Choi- 
ces cannot be guaranteed, as many students 
undoubtedly choose the same areas, and there 
are only a Umited number of assignments 
in each district. 

There is no rule for placement; each stu- 
dent teacher mtjst be assigned to a school 
where there is an opening for his ma;K>r- 
This is the only enforced crit^ion for placing 
student teachers. Also, as Dr. Page said, 
"The geographical position of Clarion State 
CoUegc and the number of students make it 
imperative that many of our students be 
assigned at some distance from the college." 

The boundaries of the areas wWch permit 
education majors from Clarion to student 
teach are as follows: north to Bradford 
(approximately 90 miles); east to Curwens- 
viUe (50 miles); west to the OMo state line 
(60 miles); south to the Pittsburgh afea 
(about 100 miles). This area is quite broad, 
but such a range is necessitated by the 
population distribution and lack of openings 
for student teachers due to the presence 
of other colleges in a close range to our 
own which also require places for stitdent 
teachers. 

There are 376 students who are now doing 
their student teaching. This makes an approx- 
imate total of 720 students in the field for 
the 1968-69 scholastic year. Dr. t'age stated 
that there will probably be little change 
in this number within the next three yeak-S — 
not until the new dorms are completed which 
will bcost enrollment. One reason for the 
constancy of this figure is that while the 
enrollment at CSC is growing, the increase 
is largely in liberal arts and business admin- 
istration, neither of which involve student 
teaching. 

Dr. Page also spoke about the present 
practicum courses which are mandatory dur- 
ing student teaching. Practicum is a two- 
credit course in review of methodology, 
school law, and job attainment. The course 
necessitates being nearby an educatitHial cen- 
ter offering college-approved practicum. The 
courses are held on campus and in such 
places as Bellevue, Penn Hills, and DuBois 
for the convenience of the students. These 
centers make communications available to 
students in the field, and if the student is 
placed in an area which impedes his centact 
with one of the centers, the adminisb-ation 
will go to him. 

The supervision of student teachers is. ^e- 
cialized at CHarion^ according to Dr. Page. 
He said that many other colleges have gen- 
eral supervision; that is, supervisors of stu- 
dent teachers that are not necessarily spe- 
cialists in that student's field. Specialization

A. If there are obvious fl««s, 
both beauty and value are 
affected. However, if there 
are only a few tiny flaws, 
and it takes 10-powcr mag-

lowers the price -but it does 
not affect the beauty or 
durability of the diamond.

in supervision is highly desirable, as a super- 
visor familiar with the subject which the 
student is teaching can supply pertinent and 
constructive criticism of a kind which the 
student teacher may need. 

The supervisor works essentially for the 
student's benefit; in this way, the student 
has two people responsible for his grade, 
both the supervisor and the co-operating 
teacher with whom he works. The college 
has the final word if tlwre is a discrepancy 
in the decision about the final grade. So 
that a supervisor may know his student teach- 
ers better, the college attempts to assign 
former students of a certain methods course 
to that same professor for observation. Super- 
visors only see each student teacher in the 
field from four to 12 times pef semester. 
Hence a good knowledge of the student's 
personality is helpful as a basis for judg- 
ment. 

Clarion's system for placing student teach- 
ers is by no means perfect, but it is being 
handled as much as possible for the com- 
plete besaefit of the students themselves. The 
best thing future student teachers can do 
to aid the department is to hand in their 
preference and qualification cards on time, 
properly filled out with the aid of their ad- 
visor, remembering that preferences can't 
always be honored, but that everything possi- 
ble will be done to place a student teacher 
in an area of his choice.

Headslart Program 
Initiated at CSC 

Last winter Dick DeRiso approached Mr. 
Lawrence Sauvage, associate professor of 
special education, and asked if there was 
anything he could do to gain experience 
in helping children. Mr. Sauvage suggested 
the Head Start program and out of this 
grew the Growth Motor Training Program 
in which eight boys are presently helping 
at the Head Start center in the United Pres- 
byterian Church. 

Attracting men to the field of pre-school 
training has long been an aim of the special 
education department. The eight students 
helping at the center— Dick DeRiso, Russ 
Benson, Vince Ilooney, Bill Zener, Tony Riz- 
Eo, Jim Rankin, Tom Camise, and Tim O'- 
Neill—are the first Clarion students to be 
gaining experience at the pre-school level 
before they graduate. 

Mr. Sauvage commenting on the p^^ram 
said, "It gives them experience before they 
graduate, and they are really inyolvet^" 

Taching the Head Start children thi iden- 
tification of their hody parts, which idrneces- 
sary for an individual before he is able 
to learn to read, is the primary job of 
the eight volunteers. During the hour they 
spend at the center each morning, the Clarion 
students lead physical activities to teach the 
body parts and coordination. 

Working closely with the teachers and fol- 
lowing suggestions in the nationally known 
Kraus-Weber program, the volunteers ledd 
exercises on imitation of movement, becom- 
ing aware of one's self in space, learning 
how to balance, and going through an obsta- 
cle course without bumping the objects. 

All majoring or minoring in special educa- 
tion, the boys have visited "Operation En- 
rich" in New Brighton, Pa. This is an exp«-i- 
mental program for preschool, some of 
whom are mentally retarded. Directed by 
Dr. Richard Myers, known throughoat the 
state for his work in special education, the 
program is financed by a Title III grant 
with the Beaver County Public Schools. It 
is hoped that the Clarion students will be 
able to do their student teaching there next 
year. 

Drs. Frances L. Ilg and Louise Bates Ames 
of the Gesell Institute in New Haven, Conn., 
both internationally known for their ideas 
and programs in early childhood education, 
have been very enthusiastic about getting 
men involved in the program at this level. 

Mr. Sauvage commented: "How to get men 
to work with pre-school children has always 
been a challenge. In the case where men 
have worked with children of this age, the 
results have been very successful. It has 
been great for the men; they have learned 
patience and have learned that it is neces-

World's shortest 



CPA aptitude 
test. 



D Problems stimulate me. 
D Problems upset me. 



If yoii want to earn a living in a field thai con- 
stantly offers new and exciting perspectives — 
new problems lo solve— consider the work of 
the CPA. 

A CPA has to grasp the essentials of many 
different fields, and have the independence to 
form objective opinions about them. 

He's more in demand than ever before, by 
corporations, non-profit agencies, government 
bodies at all levels. 

Why? Because the increasing complexity of 
business requires new concepts of fact-gather- 
ing, problem-solving, and conunimication of 
economic information. 

The CPA, for example, is one of the leaders 
in planning new ways lo use computer systems. 

He might also be called upon to weigh the 
relative merits of social programs in terms of 
available resoiu'ces, helping to shape an urban 
renewal program. 

So if problems intrigue you, and if you have 
aptitude for concentrated, meticulous, creative 
thinking, you might make a good CPA — in a 
public accounting firm, in industry, education 
or government. At some point, you might even 
decide to form a firm of your own.

Dr. David W. D. Dickson, who will pre- 
sent an address entitled "The Open Society" 
at the Second Annual Honors Convocation at 
Clarion on Tuesday, March 25, at 10:30 a.m , 
has been an important figure in the develop- 
ment of one of the nation's newest and most 
interesting universities. 

As provost and vice president for academic 
affairs of Federal City College in Washington, 
D.C., Dr. Dickson has been directly involved 
in the planning and initiation of a university 
located in an innercity and geared to the 
educational and cultural needs of the immed- 
iate community in which it is located. 

In his topic Dr. Dickson will draw upon 
both a rich reservoir of academic exper- 
ience gained in several of the excellent acade- 
mic institutions of Uie country, and also 
upon his unusual experience in helping devel- 
op a new university that is beginning its 
work by attempting to meet constructively 
and directly some of the most demanding 
social and academic problems of our time. 
Federal City College is the land grant

'Ah, Wilderness!' Offers 'A Relaxing Evening'; 
Cast Makes Play 'Come off in Fine Style' 



Martin Ridge Speaks Wed.; 
Students are Social Critics, too 



By ANN ROHRBAUGII 

Dr. Martin Ridge, editor of the Journal 
of American History, spoke in Peirce Audi- 
torium on Wednesday evening as part of 
the Distinguished Scholars Series. The audi- 
torium as well as the steps were crowded 
with students and faculty meml)ers. 

Dr. Ridge earned his doctorate degree from 
Northwestern University and is presendy 
teaching at tlie University of Indiana in addi- 
tion to his position as editor of the journal. 
His topic for this lecture was "The Progres- 
sive as a Social Critic" and he covered 
social criticism. 

The first social critic that Dr. Ridge dis- 
cussed was the college student. He said the 
creative criticism on college campuses shows 
there is an intellectual gap as well as a 
generation gap. He referred to these students 
as the "swinging generation" and said they 
were creating a Greenwich Village on every 
college campus. For them, the old ways 
and the old prophets are dead. Dr. Ridge 




said the battleline may happen to be at Col- 
umbia, but all campuses will either bene- 
fit or die in the process. 

From there. Dr. Ridge covered the be- 
ginning of reforms and progressivism in ur- 
ban affairs, agriculture, and various other 
fields, stressing several changes from frontier 
days to our urban centers of today. We 
are now, he said, in a post-industrial age 
in which white-collar workers are needed, 
and they are the ones who will form the 
new proletariat. 

Dr. Ridge concluded with his judgment 
of the future, although he warned that he 
has a record of failures in predictions: the 
urban complex will persist in some form, 
the products of the indu.strial age will be 
available to more and more people, the pro- 
blems of Black America pose the greatest 
challenge to thinking leaders, and the Blacks 
"want in on the action and wUl eventually 
get in." 

Although Dr. Ridge's entire message was 
timely, the most effective points were those 
in which he spoke without the aid of his 
manuscript.

A STUDENT REVIEW , . , 

By SANDY DIESEL 

Ah, Wilderness! continuing tlirough Satur- 
day is a quaint homey play that is a little 
boring and drawn out, but it oilers an evening 
of relaxation and enjoyment. 

The play itself, not one of O'Neill's best, 
appears to be outdated and a bit too romantic 
for our hectic pessimistic hves. The play 
takes place in 1906; hence the play depicts 
life as it was then and not as it is now. 
For this reason, the audience may find it 
difficult to identify with, but we can look 
at it and agree that life was easier then, 
when the moral code was more defined. 
Although the play does not pertain to our 
lives directly, we can examine it and see 
some similarities to our own lives. 

Would Today's Richard Accept 

The incidents occurring in the play are 
not comic for comedy's sake but are rather 
pathetic in that if a "Richard" today was 
propositioned by a tart, he would in all 
probability accept her offer. The story is 
straightforward enough: Richard, the sixteen- 
year-old son of Nat Miller, has upset both 
his family and the family of his girlfriend, 
Muriel. 

They are upset not because he is a "bad" 
boy, but because they feel his thinking is 
too radical for the conservative young boys 
of the late Victorian era. His thinking is 
influenced by the "risque" literature he is 
reading (Shelley, Keats, Shaw, and the like.) 

Steve Brezzo, as Nat Miller; Roseann Zar- 
emba, as Essie, his wife; Paul Armbruster, 
as Richard, their son; Bill Demma, as Ar- 
thur, their son; Judy Rosensteel, as Mildred, 
their daughter; and Charles Baptist, as Tom- 
my, their son, are all adequate in their roles 
as are the other members of the cast. Mr. 
Brezzo is places could have hurried tlie action 
along, but like all fathers appears to plod 
on rather determinedly and forcefully. 

Armbruster Is Convincing 

Mr. Armbruster, in his portrayal of Rich- 
ard, the idealistic youth, was convincing. One 
could sympathize with the confusion that 
Richard must have been going through as he 
tried to make everyone understand the "why" 
in his method. 

The play is pathetic in that life does not 
move as smoothly nor does it always work 
out for the best as depicted by O'Neill. We 
are much more attuned to the philosophy 
of Belle (Rosemary Slebodnik) that life is 
for fun and that it should be enjoyed. Life 
is not an heirloom that should be stared 
at and not Imiched; to obtain any real mean- 
ing from it one must feel it and become en- 
gulfed by it. 

The play is «ijoyable because fathers arc 
embarrassed to talk to their sons about tiie 
facts of life, and a first love is beautiful 
because of the promises that go with it. Much 
of the enjoyment is derived from the scene 
at the Pleasant Beach Hou.se wiiere Richard 
meets Belle, the woman of ill-repute. This 
scene descends from the amusing to the 



sentimental and romantic because "true 
l3ve" for Richard wUl conquer all. 

Play Ends on Happy Note 

The play ends on a happy note. Both fam- 
ilies are no longer upset with Richard; Ri- 
chard aad Muriel are re-united; and Richard 
will go off to Yale. The play ends as it 
begins, a little boring and a little drawH 
out, but in between there is an entertaining 
evening for aU. 

The cast is as follows: 

Nat Miller Steve BrezBO 

Essie, his wife Roseann Zaremba 

Arthur, their son Bill Demma 

Richard, their son Paul Armbruster 

Mildred, their daughter Judy Rosensteel 

Tommy, their son Cliarles Baptist

A FACULTY REVIEW . . . 

By JON A. McCLURE 
Instructor of Speech 

When you look at Ah, Wilderness! you won- 
der: "How in the world will they pull it 
ofl? The 1906 jokes just don't cut the mus- 
tard, there is too much of a generation 
gap. Richard the rebel will be a mama's 
boy compared to today's youth. " 

Evidently nobody told Dr. Hardwick ind 
the cast this, for this play came off in 
fine style; and everyone must have been 
63 years old, for there was laughter and 
applause. 

Ah, Wilderness! written by Eugene O'Neill, 
is the story of an American family living 
in a small town in Connecticut in 1906. The 
"domestic comedy" depicts both the humors 
and frustrations of the family. 

Richard Is Rebellious 

The play reflects the restless feelings of 
Richard, a senior high school student of 
rebellious nature, played very well by Paul 
Armbruster. 

Richard has read Shaw, Wilde, Swinburne 
and Omar Khayyam, all of which seem to 
contribute to his delinquency. This causes 
his mother great concern. His troubles grow 
almost geometrically and the "barbs of criti- 
cism" start falling on his shoulders. To com- 
pound his troubles even more, he is passion- 
ately in love with the neighbor's daughter 
and intends to marry her. 

The comedy rolls into high gear when 
Richard sends his sweetheart, Muriel Mc- 
Combs, played by Paula Douthett, a verse 
from Swinburne, which seemingly cinches 
Richard's fate. The father, played very well 
by Ken MiUer, becomes disturbed and forces 
his daughter to break up with Richard. 

He Goes on a Binge 

Richard commits the final insult, when, 
out of spite, he goes on a bigoted belligerent 
binge in the presence of a strange bar girl. 

When all seems lost, his sweetheart proves 
her devoticm and meets him at the beach 
and Richard reverts back to normal. It is 
a refreshing play that brings about ponder, 
concern, and laughter, and the audience loved 
it. 

It has the hoped for ending, in which 
both the father, played brilliantly by Steve 
Brezzo and the mother, played by Roseann 
Zaremba, finally relate their experiences of 
years past and remember that they, too, 
"once were young." 

Other characters in the play were BUI 
Demma, Judy Rosensteel, Charles Baptist, 
Janice Duncan, Bob Heimann, Constance Ku- 
siolek, Ron Reed, and Terry Daum. Both 
John Sandrock and Rosemary Slebodnik ex- 
cited laughter in the audience, and contri- 
buted greatly toward the play's success in 
their minor roles. 

Alexis Is Stage Manager 

The production staff included Connie Alex- 
is as stage manager; Patti Skxirkay as as-

young lovers Muriel and Richard, as

Armbruster. 



sistant director; Tom Parsons as teclmical 
director; Trina'fLorah as master carpenter 
and Frank Talkington as assistant. Nancy 
Saussy was master painter, assisted by Nan- 
cy Plese; Bill Nanovsky was the electrician, 
assisted by George McGary. Properties and 
costumes staff included Claudia Daniels, Dor- 
othy Shaw, Susan Snyder, and Joanne Long. 

Dr. Mary R. Hardwick, director, has done 
a good job in pooling the talents and efforts 
of the entire cast to make tliis play a suc- 
cess. The business manager for the play 
was Dr. Charles Marlin. 

Special praise should go to Dr. Adam Weiss 
for the unique scene design that has helped 
make for a more conducive atmosphere for 
this play and its success. 

The next production from the Speech and 
Theatre Arts Department will be Bob Merrill 
and Michael Stewart's Carnival on April 30, 
May 1, 2, 3.

Are Today's College Students 
Overworked. Undereducated? 



An interesting article appeared in 
last Sunday'L^ This Week entitled, "Col- 
lege Students are Overworked," by 
Bergen Evans, professor of English at 
Northwestern University. 

In this article, Dr. Evans claims 
that there are two major dilficulties 
in the present academic life of today's 
college students. "One is that the 
students are grossly overworked at 
tasks that are meaningless and irrele- 
vant to them. And the other is that 
they are kept in humiliating depen- 
dence, treated as children, long after 
they have become adults." 

Colleges tend to, put more em- 
phasis on credits and degrees, and 
they tend to put less emphasis on what 
is really important — the quality of edu- 
cation. Learning that is measured by 
quantity is, according to Dr. Evans, 
dangerous because it disregards the 
student as a "human being and shows 
very little awareness of what educa- 
tion is or what it is meant to be." 

Sixteen lectures a week in four 
"totally-unrelated fields" is enough 
"to drive anyone mad." But the stu- 
dent's work does not stop here. He is 
also expected to spend two hours of 
study on every hour spent in class as 
well as being required to do term 
papers and to take exams. This leaves 
little time for the student to develop 
his own thoughts, skills, and values 
through leisure. In fact, the only 
choice a student has, in the opinion of 
Dr. Evans, is to accept the teacher's 
values without giving much of his own 
thought to the material presented in 
class. 

For this reason. Dr. Evans main- 
tains that the student must have tim6 
to himself to think things out if he is 
to learn anything. The student must 
also have time to evaluate his courses 
to find out if he is really learning any- 
thing or if he is wasting his time and 
money. 

In essence. Dr. Evans is suggest- 
ing a complete revamping of the edu- 
cational system. He feels that there 
should be "more learning and less 
teaching." In addition, he states that 
the whole process "could, and should, 
be shortened by several years." 

Certain unnecessary courses can 
be eliminated. If, for example, a 
student is reasonably literate (and most 
are) by the time he enters college, he 
should not be forced to take Freshman 
English or literature. A mature stu- 
dent can learn to write and to read 
without assistance. For this reason, 
he should take these courses only if 
he desires special knowledge in these 
subjects. 

By eliminating certain unneces- 
sary courses, the time span of college 
could be shortened, and the leisure 
time could be lengthened. A student 
would do course work only in those 



subjects which he needs (based on his 
knowledge, his intended career, and his 
interests). If the student has the "re- 
quisite knowledge, no matter how he 
came about it," the state should allow 
this student to qualify for a degree. 
The important thing is "the posses- 
sion of the knowledge ' and not "the 
accumulation of credit hours." 

Much of what Dr. Evans has to 
say applies to Clarion. It may not be 
possible to shorten the "accepted" 
four-year college term here or to 
lengthen the amount of leisure time, 
but it may be possible to "eliminate 
some of the tasks that are meaningless 
and irrelevant" to students. 

Clarion could, for example, initi- 
ate a program which could eliminate 
courses for students that are not ne- 
cessary. Some colleges now have a 
system whereby students can take com- 
prehensive examinations in certain sub- 
jects, and, if he passes them, proceed 
to the next level or may skip the course 
entirely with full college credit given 
for the course. 

Clarion could also take advantage 
of such a system. Entering freshmen 
could, for example, take a test in Com- 
position I, and if their present know- 
ledge is sufficient, they could be per- 
mitted to take Composition II or Ad- 
vanced Composition. Other subjects 
could follow suit. In this way, stu- 
dents would not be forced to sit through 
courses that have little to offer them. 

Another advantage to such a pro- 
gram would be that the students would 
have more time to devote to their 
major fields of concentration as well 
as to their interests. Many required 
courses could be replaced with elec- 
tives that are more suited to the stu- 
dents needs. 

In addition, students would not 
be kept in "humiliating dependence" 
because they would have more free- 
dom to pick and rhoose their courses, 
which would create more indepen- 
dence. 

This independence should not, 
however, lead to a completely special- 
ized education whereby students only 
take courses in their major. At no 
time should a student skip a course 
unless he is able to fulfill the neces- 
sajry requirements which are expressed 
in! the comprehensive examination. In 
other words, the student should take 
rdquired courses if he has no back- 
ground knowledge in these subjects. 

If Clarion were to take advantage 
of this system of letting students take 
courses which correspond with their 
pijesent knowledge, it is logical to 
assume that a more stimulating aca- 
demic situation would result — a situ- 
ation that would make students more 
anpreriative of the education they ar? 
hqre to receive.

LEHER TO 
THE EDITOR 

Try to Save Venango! 

Editor, The Call: 

Presently around the state there is a con- 
siderable amount of controversy concerning 
the findings of the Hcald-Hobson Report 
on the off-campus centers of Pennsylvania. 
In the past few weeks Venango Campus 
students have decided to take some action 
on the matter on behalf of Venango's re- 
maininp a branch campus. 

In the December 18 issue of the Clarion 
Call, an artif^'e was published concerning 
the Heald-Hobson report end the future of 
Venango Campus. My purpose in writing 
this letter was to inform the students of 
Clarion State College of a .situation confront- 
ing '±" Stat2 Legislature with which Clarion 
shoulc i>e very much concerned. 

A group of Venango students who have 
shown interest along the lines of keeping 
Venango Campus a branch campua have 
formed a committee entitled the Concerned 
Students of Venango Campus, and are putting 
forth an effort to arouse support in expanding 
Venango as a branch campus. AH members 
of the committee have read all or part of 
the Heald-Hobson report and have found 
many fallacies in its content. At present 
the committee is attempting to contact Sena- 
tor Frame to see if they can secure his 
aid in Harrisburg. 

Of course there are those who hold views 
in opposition to the maintenance of Venango 
as a branch campus. One opposing group, 
the Pennsylvania Association for Higher Ed- 
ucation, has st.:ted that "the Heald-Hobson 
report is very objective, and whon viewed 
from the perspective of statewide need, little 
room is left for objections." 

As a member of the committee investigat 
ing the Heald-Hobson report as it concerns 
Venango Campus. 1 would like to know what 
the feelings of the administrators, faculty 
members and students of the main campus 
of Clarion State are toward the matter. To 
what extent is the main campus concerned 
whether Venango Campus remains a branch 
campus of Clarion or is converted into a 
community college?

The last issue of the Duqucsnc University Guild. The News won 



Ihike st;!tL'd that the "Pittsburgh Council 
of Hi;'lier Education has approved an experi- 
mental cross-registration among this city's 
live major universities." This nsw program 
will cnalilc students at any of the five univer- 
sities to enroll in "upper division" courses 
in any of the other schcwls. 

The program is to bo conducted on the 
underijraduato level only; credits will be 
given by the school in v.hich the student 
is enrolled full-time. The schools involved 
in thi.s program will be: Camegie-Metton 
University: Chatham College; Duquesnc Un- 
iversity; Mount Mercy College, and the Uni- 
versity of Pittsburgh. All the schools involved 
will inaugurate the program beginning in 
the fall .semester, 19 9. More information 
will be available next week, after the live 
presidents of the cooperating universities 
meet and releasa a .joint signed statement. 
The Ediuboro Collegiate Players, the dra- 
ma group at Edinboro State College, have 
been selocled to perform Arthur Adnmov's 
"Professor Tarannc" at the Thirteenth An- 
nual Yale Festival of Undergraduate Drama, 
in New Haven, Connecticut, this March. Ac- 
cordin;* to the Edinboro Spectator, the Col- 
legi;nc Piayers have attended the Yale Dra- 
ma Festival for the past five years, but this 
is the first time one of their productions 
has been solccted for performance there. 
The festival performance is quite a distinc- 
tion, since only 11 other college groups from 
the entire United Stat?s and Can.ada have 
been selected to perform. The groups chosen 
to participate^ are judged on the basis of 
relevance of play, merit of script, and ori- 
ginality of the production proposal. 

Among the colleges represented by produc- 
ing groups will be Ohio State University, 
Yale University, HoUins College, Emerson 
Collef?e, and Adolphia College. "Professor 
Taranne" is a one-act play from the French 
avante-garde school of drama. 

The Temple News was awarded first prize 
for "overall excellence" for the school year

the award over 35 
other colleges who entered their newspapers 
in the final competitive round by various 
guild district councils throughout the country. 
During the year, the Temple News carried 
stories not only pertinent to the Temple cam- 
pus, but also highlighted important Philadel- 
phia issues (Philly is Temple's home ground), 
and national and international issues of im- 
pact. Also published during the scholastic 
year were three supplements concerning the 
campus effects of the Vietnam War, one of 
the North Phiiadelphian community, and one 
concerning black students. 

There is an interesting "escape" for stu- 
drnts who don't wish to reside in college 
dormitories at Oberlin College in Oberlin, 
Ohio. There is a "co-op" plan in effect at 
the college which provides housing for wo- 
men, under a housemother's surveillance, 
in which work, cookin ;, and cleaning are 
co-operative and done by the students with 
the help of one professional cook. 

At one such co-op, "Keep" by name, appro- 
ximately 50 girls live and cat on the premises, 
and about 30 college men board only. The 
students plan, cook, and buy the inf»redients 
for their own meals, clean the house thor- 
oughly weekly, and earn "job points" for 
various duties for the privilege of maintain- 
ing such a residence. 

Men are allowed unlimited visitation rights 
in the girls rooms, and there are no set 
curfews. The door is locked at 12:30 each 
night, but women returning later can use 
an electronic "key-card" mechanism to gain 
entrance to the co-op. 

The lobby is maintained as a communal 
study lounge, with a record player and radio 
for the students' convenience. The atmos- 
phere is very congenial; there are few rules 
enforced concerning behavior and activities, 
and the students do not take unfair advantage 
of their freedom. A dog and cat reside in 
cautious camaradere at Keep, in the house 
mother's rooms; they add to the general 
warmth of the co-op. It's a wonderful place 
to visit — I'd love to live there. 



OPINION POLL 



Comment Cards — 
Are They Effective? 



By SANDY DIESEL 

Last semester in the November 15 issue 
of the Clarion Call was questioned in an 
editorial the effectiveness of comment cards. 
In the previous issue, we printed a letter 
commenting on the policy of a majority of 
the faculty giving tests during a two- week 
period beiore comment cards were to be 
issued. 

Many students this semester are again 
faced with pre-comment tests. For this rea- 
son, wc asked students this question: "Do 
you feel that comment cards are accomplish- 
ing their purpose?" 

Albert Ritchie: "Comment cards are all 
right if all teachers judge their students 
on a uniform basis. Some profs send them 
out because they foel they must; some rely 
on the number of class absences in deter- 
mining who should receive comments, and 
some profs don't even bother sending them. 
It should be a uniform rule with some set 
standard of procedure." 



College Concert Band Will Present 
Annual Spring Show Wednesday 



The College Concert Band will present its 
annual Spring Concert next Wednesday at 
8 p.m. in the Waldo Tippin Gymnasium. 

The band, conducted by Dr. Stanley F. 
Michalski. Jr., has been preparing for this 
concert since the close of the gridiron sea- 
son. 

Soloist for the evening will be Mr. Rex 
Mitchell, a member of the college music 
department. Mr. Mitchell will be featured 
as saxophone soloist. 

The program will include: "Entry March 
of the Boyares," Johan Halvorson; "Scottish 
Rhapsody for Band," Howard Cable; "Polka 
and Fugue," from the opera "Schwanda, 



the Bagpiper," Jaromir Winberger; "Can- 
zonetta and Finale," P. I. Tchaikowski, arr. 
Rex Mitchell; and "Song of the City," Rex 
Mitchell. 

Also included in the program are: "Jama- 
ican Rumba," Arthur Benjamin; "The Van- 
ished Army March," Kenneth J. Alford; 
"Toccata and Fugue," Johan Ernst Eber- 
lin; "Concert Piece for Winds and Percus- 
sion," Robert H. Pearson; "Excerpts from 
Sebastian Ballet, for Symphonic Band," Gian 
Carlo Menoti; "Variations on a Korean Folk 
Song," John Barnes Chance; and "New York 
Suite," Co. Mark Azzolina. 



CONCERT CHOIR PRACTICING FOR CONCERT 




PICTURED ABOVE is Clarion's Concert Choir under the direction of 
Milutin Lazich. On Monday evening they will pre.sent their annual Spring 
Concert. 



Jim Schiiltz: "Yes, basically they accom- 
plish their purpose, if they are picked up 
by the student, but I feel they should be 
sent to tlie parents, because many times 
the cards will be ignored." 

Bob Dragovich: "Yes, because should you 
receive a comment card, you know you are 
doing something wrong, and this gives you 
a definite opportunity to see your prof and 
find out how to improve your score." 

Shelly Pugrant: "No, because by the time 
comment cards come out a student generally 
has had another test. Then his standing in 
that class would have changed." 

Chris Brumbaugh: "Yes, they help you 
know your standing as far as the class goes." 

Donna Carson: "No, what are they sup- 
posed to do — let you know you're failing 
a subject? I saw my number and I didn't 
even pick them up. It just doesn't mean 
anything." 

Mary Lou McCauli'f: "Comment cards 
are only of value to those professors and' 
students who choose to make them valuable." 

Connie Alexis: "I don't think they accom- 
plish their purpose. Most students realize 
they're failing, its just more wasted paper 
work." 

Dan Wolovich: "Waste of time. If they 
sent them home they might accomplish their 
purpose." 

Jim Mitchell: "I think they're a waste of 
time. They let you know something you al- 
ready know." 

Barbara Blake: "No. you get them, but 
they don't make any diflcreucc because you 
still have six weeks to make up the grade. 
Anyway it is based on only one grade." 

Bill Botti: "I think that they are a waste 
of time. One bad thing is that Uiey force 
teachers to give tests all in one week to 
get their comment cards out. " 

It can be summed up from the opinions 
above that students feel that there is some 
worth to the comment cards. But as they 
are now, comment cards are not effective 
because they are based on one grade and 
the student usually knows how he ^ands 
in that course. If comment cards meant 
more than they do, they would be more 
effective, but as they are now they do not 
mean much and are ineffective.

Venango News 



Campus Problems Discussed 

On Thursday, Feb. 28, the Philosophes and 
the newly-formed Venango Campus chapter 
of the I.C.G. sponsored a discussion on the 
issue of the community college versus the 
branch campus. 

Attended by about 30 Venango Campus 
students, several faculty members, and a 
representative of the Oil City newspaper. 
The Derrick, the meeting heard pertinent 
commentary on this controversial issue. 

The Heald-Hobson study of off-campus cen- 
ters in Pennsylvania was used as a point 
of reference, and much of the discussion 
was focussed on the report recommenda- 
tions for an Oil City-Warren-Titusville Com- 
munity College Center. 

The point was made by several Oil City 
residents who are commuting students and 
by the Derrick representative that such a 
plan is not feasible for a number of reasons: 
a prohibitive cost and rise in taxes, lack 
of interest among local residents, and the 
fact tLat the new vocational-tech"ical school 
will serve the expressed demands for tech- 
nical courses. A virtually unanimous con- 
clusion was that the Heald-Hobson report 
leaves much to be desired as far as an 
in-depth study is concerned. 

A discussion of possible courses of action 
followed, with suggestions ranging from en- 
largement of present facilities to a co-equal 
"second campus" for Clarion. 

The meeting ended with the creation of 
a 12 member basic committee to investigate 
and develop a formal meeting with partici- 
pation from Harrisburg, Oil City, and Clarion. 
It was suggested that the committee he de- 
signated the concerned sludenti; of Venango 
Campus. 

Acliitn Committve Meets 

In the continuing controversy over the cuin- 
munity college ver.sus the branrii campus, 
the newly-formed Concerned Students of Vo:i- 
ango Campus met last Thursday lo decide 
on a course of action. 

Under the direction of Chairman Chris 
Graef, and the advisement of faculty mem- 
bers, Mr. Abate and ?.;.. Ciawlord. U.e group 
tentatively chose April 10 for the formal 
public meeting. 

Several committees were delegated to the 
task of informing the public of the situation 
that exists and of inviting them to partici- 
pate in the work of the group. 



The commerce committee has been ap- 
pointed to contact local businesses and in- 
dustries, the clergy committee is to contact 
leaders ol the various churches, the panel 
committee will rtilist tlie aid of the area's 
interested citizens, and the pblicity comttfit- 
tf c will provide details to the local informa- 
tion media. The duties of the survey com- 
mittee will be to circulate petitions amdng 
the members of the student body, and "to 
conduct a poll of area residents pertaining 
to tlie destiny ol Venango Campus. 

Together with local citizens, students, and 
faculty members, it is hoped that Senator 
Richard Frame and Representative Alvin 
Kahle will be able to attend the April meet- 
ing since tliey have expressed interest in 
the matter. 

Mobile Offices Purchased 

On Tuesday, Feb. 25, a new mobile unit 
was installed in the parking lot of Venango 
Campus to serve as offices for a number 
of faculty members at Venango. The trailer 
has been purchased because of the lack of 
space at Venango. The six-room mobile unit 
will provide office space for ten instructors 
and will include one conference room. 



Debaters Honored 
At Slate Tourney 

Six Clarion debaters won honors in all 
events entered at the Debating Association 
of Pennsylvania spon.sored state tournament 
on Friday and Saturday at Susquehanna Un- 
iversity. 

Juniors Mary Lou McCauliff and Betti Fer- 
guson finished in a two-way tic for first 
place in the two-man switch sides division. 

Clarion, tJie University of Pennsylvania, 
and Lehigh all posted 5 1 records in the 
division, witli Pennsylvania taking first place 
on tie-breaking quality points. Clarion won 
a third-place trophy. 

McCauliff and Ferguson had wins over 
Bloomsburg, Pemi Stale, Villanova. Duqucsnc 
and Pitt, with a loss to Lehigh. 

In the four-man division. Clarion placed 
third with an 8-4 record, while Pitt and 
Pennsylvania took first and second, respect- 
ively, with 9-3 marks. 

Senior Pat Dob.son and junior Kayo Berkey 
led the division with a 5-1 record, defeating 
first place Pitt, second-place Pennsylvania, 
Edinboro, Temple and West Chester, and 
suffering a single loss to fourth-place Sus- 
quehanna. 

Sophomores Frank Fal.so and Marilyn Ros- 
lanowick, had a 3-3 record on the affirmative 
in a division where 70 percent of wins went 
lo negative teams. The two defeated Temple, 
Thiol, and West Chester and lo.st to Westmin- 
ster, Pennsylvania and St. Vincents. 

Clarion tied with Pitt for second place in 
competition for the best six-man record, post- 
ing 13-5 marks each. Pennsylvania won the 
Winchester Securities Award for best over- 
all debate record with 14 wins and four 
losses. 

Clarion speakers won four of the six tro- 
phies presented in the individual events for 
women, with Pat Dobson becoming new state 
champion in extemporaneous speaking. Hu- 
ber, of Pitt, placed second, with Clarion's 
Kaye Berkey winning third-place trophy. 

In women's oratory, a three-way tie for 
first place saw Mary Ann McDonald, Pitt, 
and Mary Lou McCauliff and Betti Ferguson, 
of Qarion, tied with seven points each. Break- 
ing the tie on rating points left the three 
just one point apart, with Miss McDonald 
first. Miss McCau^ff second, and Miss Fer- 
guson third. * 

Although Clarion entered only women's in- 
dividual events, they finished just one point 
behind Pitt in competition for the sweep- 
stakes in individual events. Pitt and Clarion 
each won four of 12 trophies offered in these 
two events, but the tie-breaking procedure 
in women's oratory left Pitt the edge by 
virtue of their higher finish in the division.

Britain is no Longer a World Power; 
New Role is One of Ccillaborafor

would'gain iffbre power and prestige in Niger- 
ia. Britain will welcome Rhodesia back from 
jlkgal independence only if they guarantee 
progress toward a majority rule. The British 
^overnm^nt would like to give Gibraltar 
independence, but according to the Treaty 
of Utrecht of 1713, when Britain gives up 
all claims to Gibraltar, the area will auto- 
maticaMy be annexed to Spain. In a poll 
xtlie citHens pt Gibraltar voiced Iheir unwill- 
irigness to gKe up their British citizenship. 
So that problem appears insoluble, 
r In the Far East, Britain is supporting 
^ children's hospital in Saigon, aids other 
hospitals, and has set up two refugee camps. 
She refuses to become involved militarily, 
but win thd PS much as possible in getting 
fell to the conference table. 



"Britain is no longer a super-power; 
hi-slory makes it diflicult to accept." 

Mr. Eric Cook, British Considate General 
at Cleveland, Ohio, since October 1967, was 
invited to speak in Peirce auditorium last 
Monday night on the British Foreign Policy 
and the 20th Century. Mr. Cook joined the 
foreign office in 1949 and has since then 
served in Leopoldville, London, Moscow, and 
Peking, to mention a few of the cities he 
has worked in. 

Meager Audience 

To a .somewhat meager audience, Mr. Cook 
explained the role Britain played in world 
politics in the pi:st. During the 19th century 
Britain reached the peak of her world domin- 
ance; she was wealthy from the benefits 
of the Industrial Revolution and had become 
the "shopping center of the world." Home 
of the most powerful navy in the world. Brit- 
ain used it to the best advantage in finding 
new markets for her manufactured goods, 
unifying her expanding empire, and keeping 
the sea lanes open for trade. 

But by the start of the 20lh century, the 
U.S. had begun to take over Britain's posi- 
tion as world power. At the end of World 
War I, Britain showed signs of a great loss 
of self-esteem; there was no longer any evi- 
dence of her basis for power. World War 
II left her lagging far behind the U.S. in 
economic standing and far behind the U.S. 
and Russia in military power. She began 
transferring responsibilities on to American 
shoulders and also to divest herself of the 
empire she had built. 

Britain Separated 

As the ties between the U.S. and Britain 
strengthened, Britain found herself separated 
from Europe and facing exclusion by market 
barriers. She began losing markets for her 
products and found herself up against greater 
competition than ever before. 

Britain is experiencing a continuous weak- 
ening of alliances. The 1956 Suez tragedy 
weakened ties between America and Great 
Britain and ended her military alliance with 
France. 

The main problem at present is economic 
survival (about 80 percent of Britain's food 
and raw materials must be imported). There 
are other important problems involving world 
diplomacy which also demand an answer. 
The British government feels that Red China 
should, i>e drawn into the international so-.,, and jQffQra9n,....and Gfinova. 
ciely; they recognized the Red Chinese gov- 
ernment in 1950 because it was the govern- 
ment in charge of the country at the time, 
not because they approved of their policies. 
The war in Biafra, claim British authorities, 
is illegal and unconstitutional, and only ser- 
ves to build tension in other parts of the 
world, especiaUy in the U.S. 



I - Must Continue Role 

At the close of his speech, Mr. Cook stated, 
"Britain ' mu^. continue to play a part in 
world affairs, but only in collaboration with 
other nations." A member of the audienc6 
later commented that from this statement 
•and the rest of the speech she got the im- 
pression that "should a major crisis arise, 
Britain .could only supply sufficient troops to 
hold out until the United ^l^tes could arrive."

ed at the Jamestown, New York, YMCA 
last Saturday by Brad Wonderling, a Shodan 
and an alumnus of Clarion. Six clubs were 
presented in this shiai: competing in 11 divi- 
sions were the Clarion Hun Judo Club, James- 
town YMCA, Buffalo, Erie, Kittanning, and 
Indiana. 

Clarion brought home 13 victories: five 
first places, five second places — one of which 
was a tie, and three third places — ^two of 
which were ties. Eleven boys and five girls 
attended the shiai from CSC. 

In the 139-pound and under— white belt divi- 
sion—were Steve Jobb, first, Joe Kenny, third, 
and Larry Cohen. In the 139-pound and under 
—brown belt division— Duane Mercer took 
first and John Brcstensky tied for second. 
In the 154-pound and under— white belt divi- 
sion—were Bill Clark, first, Ralph Peasley, 
second, and Ed Reott. Rick Jones placed 
third in the 176-pound and under— white belt 
division. 

Tom Komis won first place in the 205-poimd 
and under— white belt division, and in the 
unlimited— brown belt division, John Defas- 
sio placed second. 

In the girls' division — lightweight, Diane 
Best, first, Mary Ann Shaffer, second, Jenny 
Shaffer, third, and Roxanne Best fought for 
CSC. Mary Jo Palyszeski lost to a brown belt 
in the heavyweight class and thus placed sec- 
ond. 

Steve Jobb, a member of the Hun Judo 



Club for four years, started judo at the 
Clarion Area High School m 1966. With a 
30-point victory, Steve earned his first place 
in his weight class. Bill Clark, also with a 
30-point victory, ranked first in his weight 
class. This is Bill's third year in judo. 

Tom Komis, the team captain, with an 
easy 20-point win, secured first place in his 
weight division. Tom has been in judo for 
only two semesters. Duane Mercer's 20-point 
victory won him first place in the brown 
belt division. This is Duane's fourth year 
with the club. The female Hun judokas fought 
like tigresses to sweep both first and second 
places in the lightweight division. 

With this record of victory, the Hun judokas 
feel that they have earned recognition as 
the Clarion Intercollegiate Hun Judo Team. 
The Huns have attended over a dozen col- 
lege tournaments, have held six meets at 
home, and have attended another dozen 
meets in the states of Ohio, New York, 
Pennsylvania, and Maryland. The Huns are 
one of the few judo teams in the country 
which is co-ed, with excellent girl judokas. 

Future activities of the Huns v/iU have 
the Judo team helping to forge a team com- 
posed of Kittanning and Indiana to battle 
a combination team from Pittsburgh led by 
a fifth degree black belt holder— Mr. Kim. 
This shiai will be held at Indiana, on March 
29. The Huns will send a six-man team 
to the U.S. National Collegiate Judo Tourna- 
ment at Newark, New Jersey, on April 12.

With Varsity Strength 

Clarion freshman grapplers placed eight 
out of 13 entries in the U.S. Naval Academy 
invitational tourney March 7 and 8 at Anna- 
polis, Md. 

Freshman coach, Neil Turner, was obvious- 
ly pleased at the top-notch performances 
shown by his .squad against some of the 
best wresUing competition in the East. 

"These youngsters proved to me that we 
have a good leg up on a championslxip team 
in 1969-70 as they move into the varsity 
ranks next fall," Turner said. 

The Golden Eagle frosh were close behind 
Navy and Penn State in the number of in- 
dividuals placed in the two-day meet. 

Navy was first with nine. While Penn State 
had seven placing, they boasted three firsts 
to put them sUghtly ahead of the Clarion 
matmen. 

Freshman Coach Neil Turner's lads turned 
in a first, two seconds, a third and four 
fourths in the two-day meet based on indi- 
vidual performance rather than team points. 

Results were as follows: 

First place — Dale Murdock, Waynesburg, 
126 pounds.

pounds; Doug Klenovich, Greenville, 177

SERVING THE THIRD GENERATION OF AMERICA'S FINEST STUDENTS 




AT GREEK WRITERS' MEETING 

Editorial Policy is Questioned; 
Petition is Now Circulating 



Monday evening the writers of the Greek 
news decided to circulate a petition calling 
for the editors of the Clarion Call to return 
to last year's practice of printing all frater- 
nity and sorority news virtually without edit- 
ing. 

Their decision to circulate the petition 
among the student body was made at a 
special meeting in the Call office called by 
Nancy Granberg, Greek news coordinator 
for the Call. Fraternity and sorority members 
feel that the editors of the Call are unjustly 
editing their news by eliminating some it- 
ems and making stylistic changes. 

Present at the meeting for the Clarion 
Call besides Miss Granberg were Carolyn 
Welesko, editor, and Sandy Diesel, news edi- 
tor. The fraternities and sororities were re- 
presented by their news writers and others, 
totaling about 20. 



President Gemmell 
Serves on Panel 
In Syracuse, N. Y. 

Dr. James Gemmell, president, will parti- 
cipate in a panel of the conference on cur- 
riculum installation to be held as part of 
the eastern regional institute for education 
meeting on Thursday and Friday in Syracuse, 
New York. 

Dr. Gemmell will be one of four educators 
serving on a reaction panel dealing with 
"Installing Materials and Activities for 
Teachers and Children (MATCH) Units," on 
the second day of the conference. 

Lignelli Elected 
Conference Prexy 

Frank Lignelli, Clarion athletic director, 
was elected president of the Pennsylvania 
Conference at the annual meeting of the 
organization March 11-12-13 at Harrisburg. 

Elected to a two-year term, Lignelli suc- 
ceeds John Eiler, East Stroudsburg, as pre- 
sident of the athletic conference comprising 
the 13 state colleges in Pennsylvania. 

Due to its university status, Indiana Un- 
iversity of Pennsylvania is not a member 
of the conference known until recently as 
the Pennsylvania State College Athletic Con- 
ference. 

Other officers elected were Russel Houk, 
Bloomsburg, vice president; Dr. Bradley 
Kieth, Slipf>ery Rock, secretary, and Al Hall, 
Edinboro, treasurer. 

Principal items of business at the confer- 
ence were revision of the organization's con- 
stitution and establishment of a rule to per- 
mit freshman participation in all sports ex- 
cept football and basketball. 



ATTENTION STUDENTS: 

On March 24th and thru April 10, the 
activity fees for fall semester will be re- 
ceived in the lounge of Harvey Hall. Make 
checks payable to Clarion Students Asso- 
ciation in the amount of $25.00. Your so- 
cial security number will be needed also. 
At this time you will also have your pic- 
ture taken for your I.D. card for fall se- 
mester. 

Please keep your activity fee receipt 
which you are given, as you will need it to 
complete your pre-registration for the first 
semester 1969-1970, which the college will 
conduct during the period beginning April 
10, tliru April 18. 

All full time and part time students must 
pre-register at this time. Students failing 
to do so will be dropped from the enroll- 
ment list and their place will be given to 
an incoming freshman, or to a former stu- 
dent who desires to return. 

Myron Klingensmith 

Business Manager 

Clarion Students Association 



At the meeting a list of guidelines to be 
followed by the writers of Greek news was 
presented. (The guidelines are printed else- 
where in this Issue.) The purpose of the 
guidelines is to insure some uniformity in 
both content and appearance. Good journal- 
istic standards require such rules, the Call 
editors argued. 

The Greeks felt that some of the guide- 
lines were "ridiculous and anti-Greek.'' They 
argued that they are entitled "to print any- 
thing turned in because people enjoy reading 
inside jokes even though they are not under- 
stood." The Greeks furtlier contended that 
their column should not be as cut and dried 
as the rest of the paper. 

As one Greek put it, "the Greeks are 
the core of the Campus" and should be 
given a just proportion of the news portion 
of the paper. 

Miss Welesko maintained that "the paper 
is for, the entire student body, and any news 
that would not be understood by the entire 
student body should be edited." 

Anther meeting of the editors and the Greek 
writers may be called to further discuss 
the matter. 



GUIDELINES FOR A PEEK 
AT THE GREEKS 

1. In order to be considered for publi- 
cation, all Greek news must be typed us- 
ing double spaces and correct paragraph 
form. 

2. News should be handed in to the Call 
office by the Tuesday prior to publication. 
If the news does not meet this deadline, 
publication cannot be guaranteed. 

3. When referring to sorority or frater- 
nity members, the terms sister and brother 
should not be used before names. The term 
pledge can be used before the name of a 
pledge. 

4. No nicknames are to be used. For in- 
stance, John "nickname" Doe. 

5. Any news which is suspected of being 
coded will not be published. 

6. Sororities are not to use greetings at 

the form flowers and love. 

Some acceptable greetings are congratula- 
tions, best wishes, good luck, and many 
thanks. 

7. Past and future events can be re- 
ported, but minute details should be left 
out. Remember, this news is primarily for 
persons outside of your organization, and 
they are usually not interested in such de- 
tails. 

8. Please do not repeat announcements 
each week. For instance, do not say each 
week that the sorority or fraternity is busy 
practicing for Greek Sing.

A STUDENT REVIEW 



Concert Opens Uniquely; 
'Complete Attention' Held 



ANNETTE PESCHE 

trio, and as soloist with the Claricm State 
College Symphony Orchestra. 



By MARY JANE KIRBY 
and KATHY YOUNG 

With a unique arrangement of the national 
anthem, the Clarion State College Concert 
Band opened its annual spring concert Wed- 
nesday night. From the opening strains of 
Entry March of the Boyares by Johan Hal- 
vorsen to the final cadence of the New York 
Suite by Col. Mark Azzolina, the band, direc- 
ted by Dr. Stanley F. Michalski, Jr. held 
the complete attention of young and old alike. 

In the Entry March, the oriental flavor 
was intensified by tiie sharp contrasts exe- 
cuted perfecUy by the band. Howard Cable's 
Scottish Rhapsody, based on familiar Scot- 
tish folk songs was accentuated by the rapid 
movement of the melodies from section to 
section and ending in a stirring majestic 
setting of the theme in strict rhythmic pul- 
sations. 

Fugue Executed Well 

Opera lovers were brought to attention 
by the Weinberger Polka and Fugue from 
the opera Schwanda, the Bagpiper." The 
fugue, starting in the woodwinds, progressing 
to the lower brass and ending with the entire 
band, was executed with precision and ac- 
curacy. 

The soloist of the evening. Rex Mitchell, 
assistant professor of music, once again dis- 
played his virtuosity on the alto saxophone 
in his arrangement of Tchaikovsky's Can- 
zonetta from Violin Concerto, Op. 35 and 
his own original composition Song of iSie City 
which portrayed a typical day in New York 
City. It was a truly magiiificant performance. 

The band closed the first half of the pro- 
gram with a catchy, rhythmic Jamaican 
Rumba by Arthur Benjamin. 

Plays Rousing March 

After the rousing Vanished Army, a poetic 
march by Kenneth J. Alford, the band turned 



to a more serious nature in the second part 
of the program with Johann Ernest Eberlin's 
Toccata and Fugue sounding like the church 
organ on which it was performed so long 
ago. 

In Concert Piece for Winds and Percussion 
by Robert Pearson, the theme, which was 
introduced by the bass choir, appeared 
throughout the composition with various in- 
struments. The quiet ending played by a 
trio of flutes was in direct contrast to the 
previous rhythmic activities of the total en- 
semble. 

(Contemporary composer Gian Carlo Menot- 
ti's Excerpts fr»m Sebastian Ballet provided 
a contrast of richly syncopated rhythms with 
serene melodic passages. 

Korean Folk Song Played 

The beautiful melodic theme and its five 
contrasting variations in CHiance's Variations 
on a Korean Folk Song were enhanced by 
the unique use of a variety of percussion 
instruments including vibraphone and temple 
blocks. 

Where most bands quit, our band began 
with its final number. New York Suite by 
C^l. Mark Azzolina. As if the whole concert 
did not provide adequate variety, this suite 
contained enough variety for a concert In 
itself. This piece as well as the entire con- 
cert brought such an overwhelming response 
that the band, after playing two encores, 
received a standing ovation. 

It is understandable that the college band 
has been asked to play at the inauguration 
of the state treasurer in Harrisbiu-g on May 
5. Rarely does one get to hear such fine 
talent working together in each section to 
create such a truly exciting and unforgetable 
concert. 

Editor's Note: A faculty review of the 
band concert is also included in today's Call 
on page four.

Student Chapter 
Is Outstanding 

The student affiliate chapter of the Ameri- 
can Chemical Society at Clarion has been 
recognized as one of the outstanding chap- 
ters in the nation for 1967-68 by the coimcil 
committee on chemical education of the Am- 
erican Chemical Society. 

Clarion's chapter was one of 62 selected 
by the committee on the basis of their annual 
reports outiining the year's programs. 

rhere are 500 ACS student affiliate chap- 
ters comprising some 8,600 students in U.S. 
colleges and universities. 

The Clarion chapter has been active in 
promoting chemistry as a profession by 
bringing well known chemists from industry 
and education to the campus for lectures, 
and by sponsoring field trips to ACS acti- 
vities. 

Dr. Paul Beck, associate professor of chem- 
istry, is faculty sponsor for the group. 



Miss Hope A. Henry of Knox will receive 
highest honors among 50 Clarion seniors to 
be recognized for outstanding academic ac- 
hievement at the second annual honors convo- 
cation on Tuesday. 

Based on seven semesters of college work. 
Miss Henry will receive Summa Cum Laude 
honors for her point average of 3.83 out 
of a possible 4.00. She is the only senior 
to attain the top honor category. 

Thirteen will receive Magna Cum Laude 
honors and 36 will be awarded Cum Laude 
recognition. 

Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Arnold Henry, 
the Keystone Joint High School graduate has 
attained the dean's list every semester sine© 
entering Clarion in 1966. 

Miss Henry is a mathematics major hi 
secondary education, vies president of the 
senior class and secretary of the Mathema- 
tics Club. She is a member of Zeta Tau 
Alpha sorority.

Why Shouldn^t Senior Women 
Live Off-Campus If They Wish? 



Senior women students (or those 
that are 21 years old) should be per- 
mitted to live off campus if they so de- 
sire. The rnajoiity of Clarion's co-eds 
are required to student teach for one 
semester duiing the senior year. At 
this time, these students must ohtain 
housing in the conmiunity where they 
ai'j assigned to teach. 

For one semester, in other words, 
seniors are considered to Ik? mature 
enough to live on their own without 
the usual rules and regulations that ac- 
com}iany dormitory living. 

If seniors are considered to be re- 
sponsible adults as student teachers, 
they should also be given the same 
trust during their last academic semes- 
ter at Clarion. The same holds true 
for women students who have reached 
th? age of 21 . By all of society's stand- 
ards, a 21-year-old woman 13 an adult 
But not at Clarion. 

A 21-year-old woman living in the 
dorm must follow the same rules that 
an 18-vear-old freshman follows. The 
age difference, continued education, 
and added maturity all point towards 
an unreasonable system. 

Surely a 21-year-old student is rea- 
dy and is able to hve up to her own 
standards, and to enforce her own reg- 
ulations as she sees fit. If she is not 
mature enough by the age of 21, chanc- 
es are that she never will be; no rules, 
therefore, would alter her maturity. 

This new issue of letting senior 
women live off campus was brought to 
the attention of the women's residence 
board in the form of a letter by Tom 
Faolino. student senate president. This 
board, under the direction of Jeanne 
O'Hop, president, took immediate ac- 
tion. The issue was discussed among 
members of the board, and an informal 
ooinion poll was conducted in each of 
the girl's dorms. 

The results showed that, in gen- 
eral, the girls favored off-campus hous- 
ing for seniors. Even those girls who 
were not interested in leaving the dorm 
felt that those who wanted to should 
be given the freedom to do so. 

More action is now underway by 
members of the Women's Residence 
Board. Jeanne O'Hop summed up their 



stand in this way: "We're definitely 
for it." This does not mean, according 
to Jeanne, that the girls will be given 
the privilege to live off campus. 

Women's Residence Board, the As- 
sociation of Women Students, the 
deans, and the president must all pass 
the proposal before it can be put into 
effect. "We must follow the same pro- 
cedure as we did to obtain the sign-out 
change," stated Jeanne. 

One drawback to the proposal is 
the lack of housing in Clarion. But 
Jeanne informed the Call that the Wo- 
men's Residence Board is now busy 
contacting the Clarion Chamber of 
Commerce and the merchants of the 
area to obtain a list of possible hous- 
ing facilities. This list would help 
many girls to find housing if they want 
to take advantage of off-campus hous- 
ing privileges. 

In addition, those girls who are 
able to find housing should be permit- 
ted to live off campus. The majority 
of the girls on campus agree with this 
system; why then, should the adminis- 
tration have objection to it? 

The trend in American colleges to- 
day is to give students more freedom. 
For example, Slippery Rock, one of our 
sister colleges, has recently passed a 
proposal (similar to the one that we are 
proposing) which allows seniors to live 
off campus. It may be trite to say 
that we should jump on the bandwagon, 
but we should allow ourselves to pro- 
gress with the times. 

For this reason, a sensible plan 
such as giving senior women housing 
freedom should be given careful con- 
sideration by each of the cnanneis it 
must go through before it can be pass- 
ed. 

Clarion senior co-eds should be 
permitted to live off campus. This is 
not an issue of rightness or wrongness; 
it is merely a privilege that every ma- 
ture college woman deserves. 

It is hoped that Clarion will soon 
realize this fact by passing this pro- 
posal. WRB, AWS, the deans, and Pres- 
ident Gemmell are asked to approve 
this proposal. Clarion's women stu- 
dents will appreciate this trust in them.

Do Students at Clarion State 
Care About Lectures^ Recitals? 



An education whether college or 
otherwise is multi-faceted. It is a com- 
plex operation composed of obtaining 
knowledge inside and outside the class- 
room; it includes social activities, and 
the like. The attaining of an appreci- 
ation of the cultural aspect of our so- 
ciety is a pre-requisite to the matura- 
tion of any individual. But here at 
Clarion the individual is content to re- 
main ignorant in areas outside of his 
field of specialization rather than at- 
tend any of the events scheduled. 

Those students who do attend 
some of the lectures or recitals do so 
because their teachers require it. Few 
students attend a lecture because they 
want to. Most students are more con- 
cerned with their social life. What 
they do outside of the classroom is pri- 
marily for fun; if they were "forced" 
to attend a recital, they would com- 
plain. The four years that are spent 
in college are years that should be 
snent in producing a well-versed indi- 
vidual. To be well versed is to realize 
that things not in an individual's field 
a'-e not necessarily strange or meaning- 
less. But how many of Clarion's grad- 
uates will be well versed? It is doubt- 
ful that many will be. 

But whose fault is it? Certainly 
it is not the faculty's. They assign 
students to go to these lectures, recit- 
als, art exhibits, and the like in an at- 
tempt to make the students realize that 
there is more to life than their (stu- 
dents) field of speciahzation. The stu- 
dents attend these lectures, listen, re- 
port, and forget. Seldom do they un- 
derstand any of the concents present- 
ed. The students complain that they 



are too busy to attend, or that the lec- 
tures are boring, or that they can't un- 
derstand what is being presented. 

If the students really felt that 
these activities were worthwhile, they 
could make the time to attend them. 
The lectures are boring because the 
students go merely to sit and listen and 
not to become involved in the subject 
being presented. These are the same 
excuses many students object to the 
recitals and art exhibits. 

The cultural committee has at- 
tempted to present a well-balanced cul- 
tural calendar. But students are not 
taking advantage of the activities and 
opportunities offered; for this reason 
is it worth the while of the committee 
to attempt another cultural program? 

East Stroudsburg on March 17 ini- 
tiated a two-month festival of arts. In 
this two-month period, 16 events are 
scheduled. Recitals, concerts, plays, 
and films have been planned. A com- 
mittee entitled Academic Affairs Coun- 
cil at East Stroudsburg decided to re- 
vive the Festival of Arts which was not 
held last year due to a lack of funds. 
The affair was re-established to benefit 
those students wishing to do so. 

If such a program was organized 
to benefit the students of Clarion, it 
is doubtful that many would take ad- 
vantage of these events. Not because 
of the quahty of the performers (be- 
cause those participating in the already 
established programs are important in 
their fields), but because the majority 
of Clarion's students do not care about 
anything outside the classroom except 
for their social activities.

Letters to The Editor 



Sigma Tail Gamma Questions 

CalVs Editing of Greek ISetvs 

Editor, Uie CaU: 

What happened to the good old . . .? This 
often used expression sometimes has signifi- 
cance. For example, "What happened to the 
old "Peek at the Greeks" section of the 
Clarion Call? Many uppcrclassmen are ask- 
ing this question. It seems that our main 
source of imormation among the Greeks has 
become distorted, to say the least. 

How should a college newspaper portray 
Greek life? We must first peaiize that Greek 
hfe is an important part of college life and 
should have a special place in a college 
newspaper to relate unusual happenings, spe- 
cial occurrences, and to reflect what Greek 
life is. 

The life of a Greek must be balanced 
between seriousness and laughter, studying 
and relaxation. This is quite normal for 
any college student. The serious part is well 
taken care of by the professors, but what 
happens to the laughter? 

Each week our Greek organizations submit 
articles to the editors of the Call. These 
articles incorporate the serious and the hum- 
orous, but we rarely see the actual trans- 
cripts. Through the miraculous art of editing, 
these articles are transformed from a true 
representation of all facets of Greek life 
to an unreasonable facsimile of a fourth 
grade current events report. 

At a recent meeting held by the editorial 
staff of the Call, each Greek organization 
was given a Hst of "Guidelines" that must 
be followed when articles are submitted for 
a "Peek at the Greeks." In following 
these "Guidelines," the articles will be ster- 
eotyped to the level of a "fourth grade cur- 
rent events report." What is finally printed 
is solely at the discretion of the editors. 

We, the Brothers of Sigma Tau Gamma, 
being a member of the Greek community, 
feel that the type of articles that have been 
submitted to the Call do not, in any way, 
downgrade the standards of the Clarion Call- 
We feel that the information that we submit 
to the Call is very newsworthy and that 
it represents Greek life as we know it at 
Clarion. 

Greek organizations have shown the editors 
of the CaU their position hj full representa- 
tion at the recent meeting. Will the editors 
now provide the students at Clarioti with 
a true representation of Greek life to its 
fullest, or continue their censorship? For 
the benefit of aU Greeks and the entire 
student body here at Clarion, the affirmative 
view must be chosen. 

SIGMA TAU GAMMA 
LARRY MORRIS, President 

Delta Lambda Tau Also 
Concerned About CalVs Policy 

Editor, The Call: 

The Sisters of Delta Lambda Tau would 
like to join with all of the Greeks to ex- 
press their concern over the CaU'g policy 
toward the Greek columns. 

At the meeting Monday night, the CaU 
staff handed the Greek editors a list of 
items which we feel dictates what the soror- 
ities and fraternities may and may not in- 
c'ude in their articles. This has the effect 
of making the pieces very cut and dry. 
And many of the points, such as using nick- 
names and extending congratulations, are 
triiial and irrelevant. 

Tlie important point here is that our col- 
umns are being censored without cause. As 
long as the articles inform the studetst Ixxly, 
independents as well as Greeks, ci what 
our organizations are doing, as4 ft loof 



as (this is presented in an interesting man 
ner, we feel that a few inside comments 
could be included. 

We Greeks pay an activity fee just like 
evefy other student on this campus, and 
this is what we want to see in the Call. 
The Greek columns are written for us, as 
well as the other students, and some of 
the little things that you want to eliminate 
are meaningful to us. And since when are 
two or three lines m the paper so precious? 

We would very much like to see a revi- 
sion of the policy on Greek columns and 
a cessation to dictation and cen.sorship, 

DELTA LAMBDA TAU

A Note of Appreciation 

Editor, The Call: 

An enthusiastic expression of congratula- 
tions is due the Clarion State College Concert 
Band and its director, Dr. Stanley F. Mich- 
alski, Jr., for the outstanding performance 
Wednesday night in the Tippin Gymnasium. 
All students, staff, and friends of Clarion 
State College must surely have received real 
pleasure and satisfaction from observing the 
steady growth of our concert band in terms 
of professional excellence during the past 
several years. 

In musical terms this excellence can be 
expressed as near-perfect intonation; super- 
ior ensemble and total rhythmic co-ordina- 
tion; rich, full sonority in lx)th brass and 
woodwinds; a wide range of tone color and 
dynamics; and a general excitement and 
spirit which accompany complete preparation 
and ma.stery of repertoire. 

It is in this la<5t area, particularly, that 
much of the total growth of the organization 
becomes apparent. Because of finer instru- 
ments and better prepared, more dedicated 
performers, the band is now able to offer 
music of a complexity and variety which 
could not have been attempted a few short 
years ago. 

We have every reason to anticipate addi- 
tional advances in the next few years fully 
commensurate with the progress made in 
the recent past. Every member of this com- 
munity may take pride in the active musical 
growth of the Clarion State College Concert 
Band.

A Letter of Apology 

Editor, The Call: 

On behalf of the Social Committee and 
its members who served on the Miss CSC 
Pageant Committee, I wish to take this op- 
portunity to inform the student body of the 
reason for our disqualifying Alpha Psi Ome- 
ga's candidate. Miss Diannc Neal. 

Dianne was certainly scholastically eligible. 
However, as a transfer student, she did not 
meet the qualifying requirement that a can- 
didate had to complete a full semester's 
work at the college. 

We feel sincere regret that we did not 
discover this until almost "zero" hour. Aca- 
demic qualifications had been carefully 
checked. We knew that this coed had par- 
ticipated in last summer's theater program 
and assumed, incorrectly, that her transfer 
here had been effected earlier. 

Our apologies to Alpha Psi Omega and 
their talented representative. Miss Dianne 
Neal.

GUEST EDITORIAL 



Platitudes^ Rhetorical Questions 
Are Seen in Bergen Evans Essay 



Many of the proposals by Bergen 
Evans in the March 9th This Week are 
timely enough, I suppose; and they are 
coddled with platitudes like "more 
learning and less teaching" or rhetori- 
cal questions like "is the important 
thing the possession of credits or the 
accumulation of knowledge?" that few 
could reasonably disagree with, certain- 
ly not the editor of the Call. 

But what interests me more is how 
the good professor can plead that stu- 
dents need more leisure to learn and 
speculate for themselves, which as- 
sumes a degree of maturity that his 
later statement, "up to and finishing 
college they would still be children and 
adolescents," seems to belie. Or how 
the Call's editor can refer to "this sys- 
tem of letting students take courses 
which correspond (!) with their present 
knowledge without asking herself what 
they are in college for if not to extend, 
even destroy, their current range of 
interest or at least more broadly rede- 
fine them.selves. 

We are told at the end of last 
week's editorial that the logic of this 
"situation" is to "make students more 
appreciative of the education they are 
here to receive"; but what if the result 
of all this independent learning is not 
to make the student appreciative, but 
confused, skeptical, perhaps even hos- 
tile? What if one even begins to ques- 
tion a knowledge that is worthwhile 
because it leads to the successful com- 
pletion of an examination, whether in 
college (to "prove" that a course, not 
formally taken, is still "fulfilled") or 
after it (as preparatory to the period 
of "professional training"). 

The assumption for example 
throughout Dr. Evans' piece is that 
"knowledge" is almost an entity, cer- 
tainly something "accumulated," per- 
haps Hke the cash he has given away 
on his quiz shows or the "quotable 
quotes" he has compiled in several 



books. But this kind of knowledge is 
easy to come by, and costs little. It is 
fostered by "responsibility," born of 
submission, and leads to "maturity," 
spent in ignorance. It has no thirst 
for spontaneity, contradiction, and vio- 
lation. 

The freedom of choice both teach- 
er and student pander are illusions; 
"education" still emerges as that-which- 
can-be-tested, and the consequent "hu- 
miliating dependence" each laments is 
ironically preserved, now all the more 
difficult to see for what it really is. 

One wonders what they would do 
if a Mark Rudd suddenly shouted, "Up 
against the wall," and then added the 
unprintable epithet; if confronted by 
perhaps the key article of the so-called 
"Charte de Nanterre" drawn up by a 
national student convention of French 
universities after the May rebellion of 
last year: 

Access to study at all levels must 
conform to three basic democratic prin- 
ciples: 

1) the freedom of students from all 
economic pressures thanks to the as- 
sumption by society of the full cost of 
their education. 

2) the freedom, by means of basic 
theoretical training and permanent in- 
struction, from cultural constraints 
which are the heritage of a class-bound 
society, transmitted via the family and 
class environment. 

3) the refusal of any selection pro- 
cess which is based on social divisions 
and on the long or short-term needs of 
the economy. 

This IS the ■ kind of atmosphere 
within which the contemporary dial- 
ogue, or lack of it, on education is being 
conducted throughout most of the Wes- 
tern world, and if we ignore it, we had 
better be sure the freedom we all want 
is more than pious rhetoric.

By LARILYN ANDRE 

The land in this film is "similar to what 
Western Pennsylvania must have looked like 
before farming." Dr. Konitsky was right, 
"New Guinea Patrol" showed the wilderness 
terrain of New Guinea with wooded hills 
and winding streams not unlike those of 
Pennsylvania. The film, named best docu- 
mentary film at the 1962 Venice Film Festi- 
val, combined humor, natural color, stimula- 
ting narraUve, and poetry to show how New 
Guinea tribes are introduced to the white 
man's culture. 

Government patrols are sent to the wilder- 
ness people as the first step in civilizing 
them. James Sinclair, two other Australians, 
and an interpreter are leaving Koroba, a 
small settlement at the edge of the frontier, 
to set up new outposts further inland. A 
plane has already surveyed the area and 
has estimated the population of the hidden 
valleys; it also charted the route the patrol 
will follow. 

Since the tiny band must pass through 
enemy territory for three months, carriers 
are difficult to find. The headman doesn't 
want to lose face with the government so 
he urges the young men to go — to no avail. 
Carriers from other posts are then sent to 
help, and amidst shouting and singing, the 
patrol sets out at a g-iUop. After an hour 
or .so, however, a slov/ermoving single line 
is formed and the pace to be followed for 
tlie next three months is set. 

Over swampy plains and rugged foothills, 
the patrol winds its way further inland. "Mis- 
ery like a damp rag clings to man's back." 
IJaily at 3 p.m. a torrential rain falls. 



The men stay a few days in the more 
populous areas. If no tribal fight rages, the 
neighborhood men approach the camp. There 
is a fairground atmosphere as the patrol 
trades steel tomahawks for pigs, takes blood 
samples of the villager.s, takes the average 
height and weight and physical ^ condition 
and collects other information which will 
aid future patrols. Sinclair and hi.s two coun- 
trymen are regarded by the primitKes as 
men of magic and mystery as they treat 
diseases, remove arrowheads from flesh, 
treat yaws and erect stationary shelters. The 
natives trade firewood and a form of sweet 
potatoe for salt, small shells and a red pow- 
der used by the men for facial decoration. 
They discuss the boundaries of their lands, 
examine the clothing of the patrol (they 
wonder at it), and sec pictures of people 
in other lands. Many sec their own likeness 
for the first time in their lives as they 
encounter mirrors. Sinclair and his men .show 
the natives how to distinguish between com- 
mon sticks and simple rifles. 

The patrol's progress is announced to neigh- 
boring tribes by shouting from the top of 
a hill. The Austrahans must construct brid- 
ges over swifUy flowing streams tp accom- 
modate the carriers from the plains, while 
on the plateaus, long, sinewy grasses hide 
sharp Hmestone which slices open the bare 
feet of the carriers. 

At last the long three months have passed. 
How much good was done remains to be 
seen. The patrol set out to find far places. 
They found such places and now are licadint; 
back to Koroba to gather supplies and 
strength for another journey. 



Investigations in Diverse Areas 
Program for Science Inservice 



Fifty elementary teachers from as many 
elementary schools in 21 school districts of 
Clarion, Forest, Jefferson, Mercer and Ven- 
ango counties are participating in a Science 
Inservice program at Clarion State College 
March 8, 15 and 22. 

Conducted in the college's new Peirce Sci- 
ence Center by Kenneth R. Mechling, Asso- 
ciate Professor of Biology, the program is 
designed to provide experience in innovative 
elementary , science teaobing techniques and 
materials from three major elementary sci- 
ence curriculum development projects. 

Studies included are "Science, A Process 
Approach," by the American Association for 
the Advancement of Science; the Elementary 



Science Study, and the Science Curriculum 
Improvement Study. 

Teachers are involved in investigations de- 
signed to be applicable to their classrooms 
and pupils. Program investigations deal with 
concepts in such diverse areas as relativity, 
electricity, plant growth, chemical unknowns, 
animal behavior and characteristics of li- 
quids.

AT THE MOVIES 



A Funny Movie, 'Hallelujah the Hills' 
Is To Be Shown Tonight in Peirce 

By JOHN MATVIKO 



"Hallelujah the Hills," directed by Adolfas 
Mekas, will be shown tonight at 7:30 in 
Peirce Auditorium. 

The American movie has changed consid- 
erably in recent years. Seemingly gone are 
the days when the amount of money invested 
determines the worth of the movie. The suc- 
cess of such a film as the low-budget "Ra- 
chel, Rachel" seems to have proven that 
mere money does not buy popularity. 

This emerging trend away from high ex- 
penses, however, doesn't seem to have af- 
fected American comedies. Lavish sets and 
high-paid superstars are still the rule rather 
than the exception (for example, "Candy"). 
Possibly this is why "Hallelujah the HiUs" 
is such a delight. For not only has Adolfas 
Mekas produced a funny film; he has done 
so without any stars and on a budget of 
around $75,000— a low price by any standard. 

The plot is simple enough. Two boys, who 
are in love with the same girl, go on a 
camping trip together. They travel through 
the Vermont forest all the while reminiscing 
about the girl. The tv/o boys, as played 
by Peter Beard and Marty Greenbaum, are 
funny, particularly when they are remem- 
bering their encounters with the girl. And the 
girl's mother and father, as the typical par- 
ents, steal every scene that they are in. 

Throughout the movie, Mekas uses slap- 
stick, movie cliches, wild camera shots, hack- 
neyed dialogue, and any other device that 
will bring a laugh. If the movie has a weak- 
ness, it is this approach. For throughout the 
film we are constantly reminded that it is 
only a movie that we are watching. And it is 
a dreamlike movie that can only seem divor- 



ced from our real world. This lack of reality, 
however, is a weakness one can overlook. 
"Hallelujah the Hills" is just a lot of fun.

Campus Kaleidoscope 



Help is Main Concern of Ministry, 
Not the Conversion of Students 



By SHERRY LEHMAN 

"Individual Development Through Educa- 
tional Services " was the theme of an elemen- 
tary education conference held March 15 at 
Kulztown State College. 

Several hundred teachers and administra- 
tors from school districts throughout eastern 
Pennsylvania were present at the conclave, 
whose main speaker was Dr. Leland B. Ja- 
cobs, professor of education at Columbia Un- 
iversity Teachers College. Mr. Jacobs is an 
internationally known lecturer and teacher, 
and a professional writer of children's books. 

Aside from various discussion groups, the 
conference included ten seminars, each of 
which was led by a consultant, and allowed 
for statements from conference regi^rants. 
Some of the topics under discussion were: 
evaluating children in the elementary grades; 
individualized elementary instruction; the 
role of programmed instruction in the ele- 
mentary school; and the use of a program 
of independent study of the primary grades. 

The Millersville Snapper printed an article 
on the newly-formed SPA (Students for Pro- 
gressive Action) and their proposals recently 
submitted to the Millersville administration. 
SPA called for "active recruitment of mino- 
rity group students for admission to Millers- 
ville and the initiation of a mature Student 
Scholarship program." This program would 
be f>ut into effect partly for the benefit of 
local adults who are qualified for, and desire, 
college admission. 



Other goals include a program for aiding 
high school students in the Millersville area 
(Lancaster) to gain entrance to the college 
of their choice, for the benefit of ixAh the 
students in the high school, and the college 
tutors themselves (the experience is consid- 
ered worthwhile); and "Intensive .support pro- 
grams in the finaancial, academic, social, 
and cultural areas in a student's life prior 
to and during their stay at Millersville." 

A two- month (uh-huh, you heard right) 
Festival of the Arts began March 10 at 
East Stroud.sburg State College, to culminate 
May 17, the date of the inauguration of 
the new president, Dr. Sill. Sixteen events 
have been scheduled for the two-month per- 
iod, including classical music recitals, art 
exhibits, films, dramatic presentations, dance 
troupes, and a finale of an inaugural pro- 
gram for the college's president. 

Plans are already being made for next 
year's festival, also planned to last two 
months, with entertainment and activities 
scheduled for every second day. Students 
from all colleges are invited to attend any 
of the festival activities which interest them. 
The calendar information is available in the 
Call office. 

A final note from the outstanding Temple 
News: an editorialist suggested a new name 
for the recent "thought-provoking" film, 
"B a r b a r e 1 1 a"— perhaps "Planet of the 
Rapes"? 



Berberian Voice Recital Acjiieved 
High Degree of Artistic Expression; 
Audience Was CJiarmed and Satisfied 



By MILUTIN LAZICH 

Instructor in Voice 

Those who attended Mrs. Janet Berberian's 
recital on Wednesday night, Feb. 19, enjoyed 
a program of fine musical performance sung 
with artistic finesse and excellent taste. A 
fine selection of art songs demonstrated a 
full knowledge of vocal repertoire. Charm 
and artistic expression as well as variety 
of style and technique were captivating and 
delightful to the audience. 

The program did not drag on and on; 
instead, it was concentrated into one hour, 
which is a credit to the performer for her 
knowledge of good program building. 

T h e program opened with a charming 
group of Henry PurceU's songs which belong 
to the mature baroque period. The crisp 
and clear rhythm, the fast running passages 
as well as the slow "pathos" passages and 
the repetitive phrases were all handled with 
good technique by Mrs. Berberian. The dic- 
tion was clear and the words were under- 
standable due to fine articulation — something 
which many singing artists lack. 

The next group of songs were from the 
mature and late German Romantic period. 
Both Franz Liszt and Gustav Mahler were 
dedicated to heightening and intensifying the 
emotional content of the text, which was 
later continued by Arnold Schoenberg in a 
traditional German expressionistic style. 
Mrs. Berberian brought out this embtional 
expression fully in each song by concentrat- 
ing on interpretation and word stress in prac- 
tically every phrase. 

The highlight of the program was the 
two songs by Mahler. Their beautiful expres- 
sive and emotional character were aptly 
brought out. Everyone in the audience was 
deeply moved by these two songs. 

The last group of songs were by Gabriel 
Faure and Claude Debu.ssy. The aesthetic

The Alpha Sigs would like to announce

the following girls received their pledge pins:

Derbaum, Suzie Kahrer, and Rut Ann Ben- 
nett. We wish these girls the best of luck 
during their pledge period. 



sense of lyricism in the Faure songs was 
well expressed by Mrs. Berberian as well 
as the impressionistic quality in Debussy's 
songs. 

The warmth, richness, and dark tone qual- 
ity of Mrs. Berberian's voice were very satis- 
fying to the ear. At all times Mrs. Ber- 
berian demonstrated a complete control of 
her voice. Warmth, freedom, beauty, and 
color in tone were almost always present 
even in the softest and most subtle passages, 
an exception being, when the singer some- 
times attempted to reach a few high notes. 
However, these moments were so few that 
it was hardly noticeable. 

In all honesty it can be said that the 
concert for the performer was an achieve- 
ment of artistic and musical expression, while 
for the listeriing audience it was a truly 
charming, enjoyable and satisfying exper- 
ience. 

(Editor's Note: The Call regrets the de-.. 
lay in printing the review of the February 
19th recital by Mrs. Janet Berberian. The 
review came in too late in the issue of 
Feb. 21. Then in subsequent issues there 
was lack of space.)

The Campus Ministry, formerly known fts 
the Newman Club, was originally dedicated 
to serving only the Catholic segment of the 
student population. In order to escape the 
narrow concept that the club was anti-pro- 
testant. the Protestant headquarters was mo- 
ved from 8h street to 723 Main Street whete 
the Newman Club met. This move also tend- 
ed to reduce the danger of clique formation 
and the feeling that this was a closed organi- 
zation. 

The Ministry has as its expressed purposes 
the furthering of knowledge and communica- 
tion between the college and the community 
of Clarion, as well as aiding the various 
facets of the college in understanding each 
other. It is not concerned with converting 
students; its main purpose is to help them. 
There is no denominational segregation in 
the group's policy. Thus they are free to 
aid any student needing advice or consola- 
tion. 

Close Touch with College 

The Rev. Dr. Eldon K. Somers, the Rev. 
Paul Woodrum and, until la.st .semester, the 
Rev. David Lutz comprised the ministry. 
Besides their regular jobs, members of the 
Ministry have spoken in Social Soundations, 
psychology, and health classes at the col- 
lege. Other functions include guidance coun- 
seling in secular and religious matters, as 
well as premarital and marital counseling. 
Father Somers, head of the Ministry, and 
his aides are meml>ers of the Board of Trus- 
tees of CSC. Tills puts them in close touch 
with happenings at the college and allows 
them to give sound advice to the faculty 
and the administration. 

The Campus Ministry has a kitchenette 
and lounge and a library which contains 
books on topics of interest to young people. 
These services are u.sually open from 8 a.m. 
to 10:30 p.m. Th6re is a meeting room avail- 
able for use by both religious and civic 
groups. Father Somers is usually available 
nearly full time to schedule times for the 
use of these facilities. 

To change the image of religion in the 
community, the Ministry has changed its 
Sunday masses in the Immaculate Conception 
gymnasium to include folk music, films and 
readings, and has opened them to all students 
regardless of their religious affiliitions. 

Unique Concept 

The Ministry wants to be flexible enough 
to be able to complement the college in- 
stitution. They wish to be spokesmen for 
individuals and help them to feel necessary 
to their group. Also they attempt to help 
different groups to better understand each 
other. 

The whole concept of the Campus Ministry 
is unique in state colleges. It combines reli- 
gious as well as social aims. Religious func- 
tions include Episcopalian worship services, 
Sunday school and local ministerial associa- 
tions. Aids to the community in the past 
have been: the sponsoring of a cerebral

ings of a tfampus sorority and regular meet- 
ings of a book club. 

The important aspect to remember is that 
all the.se functions are non-denominational. 
Deep concern is felt for, and help is given 
to all who require it. 

15-25% Time for Counseling 

The Ministry has in the past organized 
an "on-campus day" when the ministers from 
town come to the college to acquire firsthand 
knowledge of the .student-faculty relationship. 

Our Campus Mini.stry is unique in that 
it is the first in tlie Commonwealth of Penn- 
sylvania to have received the full support 
and understanding of the Board of Trustees. 
Through its efforts, comparative religion and 
religious thought courses are now being con- 
sidered for the future at CSC. 

The goals of the Ministry are as follows: 

1. To further the mission of the church 
within the campus community. 

2. To offer counsel and guidance to stu- 
dents and anyone el.se who needs it. 

3. To foster Christian fellowship by stimu- 
lating spiritual and mental growth for stu- 
dents, faculty and administration. 

4. To interpret the role of higher educa- 
tion in the local church. 

Approximately 15-25 percent of the campus 
minister's time is given to counseling. Re- 
ferrals are sent by the faculty, by the col- 
lege counseling service, and some persons 
come on their own because they identify 
the Campus Ministry as a source of help 
in time of distress. 

The Campus Ministry may be able to help 
fill a void. The majority of the faculty look 
for a better and more meaningful way to 
develop the "whole man." The Ministry may 
be able to help them discover this way. 



Betty Slater 
Discusses Topic 

Dr. Betty Slater of the department of ele- 
mentary education was a participant in the 
twelfth annual meeting of the College Read- 
ing Association, March 13-15, at Northeastern 
University, Boston, Mass. 

Dr. Slater served as a discussant with 
Dr. Roderick Ironside, educational testing 
service. North Carolina, on the topic "Who 
Assesses Reading Progress: Test, Teacher 
or Students?" 

The College Reading Association is a na- 
tional organization to promote professional

Regret Change in Format 

Editor, The Call: 

The Brothers of Phi Sigma Kappa rcj^ret 
that Uic "I'cei{ at Grcelts" column has chan- 
ged its format and now must inchidc only 
information that would "be interesting to 
the entire student l>ody." We feel that the 
Greeks are an intcsral part of the student 
body and should be able to relate their social 
funcions in the Call as they see fit whether 
it is coded or not. 

At a recent meeting of the Call editors 
and representatives of sororities and frater- 
nities, it was related that the material in 
the column is unacceptable journalism. Per- 
haps it isn't the best of journalism, but 
it does comprise some of the most interesting 
news in an otherwise cut and dry paper. 
When the Call staff can say that their stories 
are interesting to the students and not the 
faculty, then they can change the format 
of "A Peek at Greeks," but as it now stands 
the only interesting article in the Call is 
"A Peek at Greeks" and it should continue 
as it was last year.

Rules Called ** Anti-Greek" 

Editor, The Call: 

On Monday, March 17, 1969, the Call staff 
called for a meeting between the editors 
of the Call and tlie representatives from 
each sorority and fraternity that write the 
articles for "Peek at the Greeks." 

At this meeting they told us how they 
wanted the articles written and the format 
for their acceptance for printing them. It 
was obvious to all the representatives that 
some of the rules were ridiculous and anti- 
Greek. 

The general paper soon entered into the 
discussion. It was stated by the Greek re- 
presentatives that this was not a student 
paper. It is oriented toward the Faculty. 
WHY??? It is the students who pay for 
the paper not the faculty. We feel that it 
is the job of the Call staff to fulfill the 
wishes and desires of the students— whether 
they are Independents — or — Greeks. 

We feel that the Greeks should be allowed 
to have their own column and to place in 
it what they want, but we feel that i is 
necessary for all the Greek representatives 
to sit down and draw up their own rules 
and regulations on what is in the articles 
and how the articles should be written. Only 
by working together will we accomplish any- 
thing. 

THETA XI 
[ Tom Parsons, president 

Greeks Are Dissatisfied 

Editor, The CaU: 

Because of the meeting on Monday, March 
17, concerning the "Peek at the Greeks" 
column, it is apparent that the fraternities 
and sororities are dissatisfied with the way 
you are handling the situation. We do not 
feel that it is asking too much to print 
our Greek column without cutting and censor- 
ing almost everything we turn in to you. 
It is a waste of both your time and ours. 
Although some of the rules you have asked 
us to follow are reasonable, many seem 
too strict. You asked us to meet you half- 
way on the issue and we are willing to 
comply with some of your wishes, but you 
are giving us no leeway at all. "Peek at 
the Greeks" is for and about Greeks. It 
is a feature column that was once enjoyed 
by Independents as well as Greeks on cam- 
pus. By cutting all our jokes, little items, 
and meaningful little phrases, you have made 
our column about as dry as the rest of 
the paper. The school paper is supposed 
to be for the students. Well, the Greeks 
are students, too. Therefore, give us a chance 
to have and enjoy at least our part of the 
paper.

Venango Organizes SPSEA 

Venango Campus is now organizing a chap- 
ter of the Student Pennsylvania State Educa- 
tion Association. To introduce the concept 
of the SPSEA, Theodore Marantis, the mid- 
western regional advisor, and Walter Seeley, 
the northwestern regional advisor, met with 
the group. 

A meeting was held for the purpose of 
organizing and planning Venango SPSEA 
meetings. Already, plans have been made 
for speakers to include first year teachers, 
a special education teacher, a student teach- 
er observer, and a superintendent who would 
conduct a mock job interview. 

Other activities include helping the Oil City 
High School with their Teacher Career Month 
activities, conducting a social activity on 
the campus during Teacher Career Month, 
instituting a school observation program, and 
participating in a tutoring, program.

Halls on a recent Monday. The boys charged 
into the first floors of these dorms and suc- 
cessfully completed a "panty raid" in each 
of the three dorms. One of the girls from 
Given Hall described the evening by stating 
that "it took outsiders to do it." Perhaps 
a statement such as this would be inviting 
to Clarion's male students, but it is doubtful 
that security would appreciate reoccurrences 
of these incidents.

Concert Termed 'Excellent'; 
Resonant Gym Enhances Echo 



By BURTON E. HARDIN 

Associate Professor of Music 

A large crowd enjoyed an excellent pro- 
gram given by the Clarion State College 
Concert Band conducted by Dr. Stanley F. 
Michalski, Jr., professor of music, Wednes- 
day night in Waldo S. Tippin Gymnasium. 
The only di.straction was the rumble caused 
by the echoes in the very resonant gymnas- 
ium which became evident each time the 
band finished a number: the echo could be 
heard for a full five seconds. 

A new arrangement of the StarSpangled 
Banner which featured some unusual chord 
progressions began the evening. Although un- 
usual, it was spectacular and appropriate 
to the spirit of the national anthem. Rendi- 
tions of the national anthem which deviate 
from the usual military arrangement have 
drawn criticism whether by Igor Stravinski 
or Jose Feliciano. but variety always pro- 
duces a reaction of some sort, and at least 
in this case it was favorable. 

Brass Sounds Off 

The Entry March of the Boyares by Johan 
Halvorsen with its powerful unison brass 
theme was well done and exhibited several 
sections of the band to good stead. Weinber- 
ger's Polka and Fugue from the opera, "Sch- 
wanda, the Bagpiper," showed excellent pre- 
cision. The fugue is extremely difficult, even 
for the orchestra, for which it was originally 
written. 

For the band, the difficulty is compounded 
several times, and one could scarcely expect 
a precise performance, especially under diffi- 
cult acoustical conditions in which the musi- 
cians have a hard time hearing one another. 
However, despite the difficulties, the band 
performed it with almost absolute precision, 
a feat which exhibits tlie care of extensive 
rehearsal. 

Assistant Professor Rex Mitchell was fea- 
tured as alto saxophone soloist on two num- 
bers: the canzonetta from the Tchaikovsky 
Violin Concerto (arranged by Mr. Mitchell) 
and Song of the City, Mr. Mitchell's own 
composition. This section was the high point 



of the first half of the concert. The plaintive 
tone and expre.ssive playing was certainly 
worthy of the Tchaikovsky. One would al- 
most believe the piece had been meant for 
the alto saxophone because it seemed to fit 
it so perfectly. 

Four Moods of City 

The Song of the City exhibited four different 
moods in a programmatic vein which de- 
scribes a visitor's impression of New York 
City. The sections, "Dawn on the City," 
"Strolling," "Man in a Hurry," and "Re- 
flection," were all well scored and well play- 
ed. Only in "Man in a Hurry," was any 
problem noted; the band was too heavy in 
spots, and in the gymnasium tended to cover 
up the soloist. 

In the second half of the concert, several 
interesting recent pieces were played after 
the excellent renditions of the Vanished Ar- 
my march and a transcription of a Toccata 
and Fugue by Johann Ernest Eberlin. These 
were Concert Piece for Winds and Percus- 
sion by Robert H. Pearson, Excerpts from 
Sebastian Ballet by Menotti, and Variations 
on a Korean Folk Song by John Barnes 
Chance. The formal concert closed with a 
piece the themes of which were sketched 
by Mark Azzolina, but which was constructed 
by a staff arranger for the NORAD Band, 
Art Wiggins. 

Audience Asks For Encores 

The audience called for two encores and 
the band responded with the Stars and Stripes 
Forever by Sousa, and Emblem of Unity 
March. The Stars and Stripes Forever has 
been played thousands of times, and it never 
fails to stimulate even those who have played 
it hundreds of times. Add the stimulation 
of the traditional by bringing the flutes and 
piccolos out front for their famous solo, bring 
it to a rousing finish with standing brass, 
and you have a sure spine-tingler. 

In this and in all the numbers of the formal 
part of the concert. Dr. Michalski, Mr. Mit- 
chell and the Concert Band performed excel- 
lently and are to be commended.

Friday, March 28, 1969 



University 
Status -Go! 



Clarion State will be awarded university 
statu.s b,v the Commonwealth of Pennsyl- 
vania at a ceremony at 4 p.m. Tuesday, 
April 1. 

Governor Raymond P. Shafer will be on 
campus all day to mingle with the students 
and to officiate at the formal re-dedication 
of the institution in the Fine Arts Center. 
The governor, who will speak on •'Clarion: 
from Normal School to University," announ- 
ced recently that "Clarion has fulfilled all 
the necessary requirements for university 
status." 

At the ceremony President James Gem- 
mell will also speak. His topic is: "The 
Generosity of the Commonwealth towards 
Institutions of Higher Learning." In his re- 
marks, President Gemmell is expected to 
point out that an additional 12 percent of 
usable funds has been 'approved by the gen- 
(I'ral assembly for each of the state colleges,

Hair Has Found Way to CSC; Soul-Rock Hugh Hefner to Discuss 
Preview to be Performed Tues. 



The highly-lauded Broadway musical, 
"Hair," has found its way to Clarion. A sneak 
preview will be performed April 1 at 10 
a.m. in the Chapel, Clarion's architectural 
triumph. 

Aside from a delightful assortment of ori- 
ginal cast members, CSC will contribute per- 
formers from the Sligo Repertory Company, 
and the Turkey City Traveling Circus, not 
to mention stars from recent student pro- 
ductions such as the recent performance of 
"Marat-Sade," and the November produc- 
tion of "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" 
(panned by area critics due to the perverse 
nature of certain bedroom scenes and the 
"shameful display of nonchalant co-habita- 
tion," but nevertheless a huge dramatic suc- 
cess). 

Local actors were chosen on the bases 
of vocal projection, physical build, innate 
exhibitionism, and religious background. Only 
the hirsute were received for audition, al- 
though sympathizers with paste-on beards 
and dynel wiglets were accepted as comb- 
bearers and coiffeurs. 

Thanks are extended, on benalf of the 
entire cast, for the kind offers from Jerri's 



Here's What Studerits Can Do 
At Clarions Little Manhattan 



1. Ragley's Bowl-A-Rena: A real treat for 
the "indoor athlete" featuring mauve satin 
sport shirts emblazoned with the local teams 
and tlieir sponsors, such as "Kutch's Ball 
Klutchers," "Wein's Winners," and "Vowin- 
kle's Alley Grabbers." Mr. Ragley says 
"Love, luck and lollipops to all you bad, 
bad bowling buffs!" 

2. Hermie's: A mecca for the petrified 
cookie lover, and a national tourist attrac- 
tion for afieiofiftdos of limited penny candy 
delicacies and quaint, good old-fashioned 
dust. Hermie is full of wondrous and clever 
witticisms like his all-time greats, "ya want 
it inna poke?" and "lemme see yer money 
first!" 

3. The Longhom: A worthy haven for the 
true barfly, featuring heated nightly discus- 
sions of such topical issues as "Shall we 
draw and quarter the next hippie that walks 
in?" or "The inevitable internal disorganiza- 
tion resulting from the chemical imbalances 
of l)odily systems after the ingestion of sev- 
eral quarts of Michelob and six Astro-Nauts 
from Emerson's Dairyland." Entertainment 
is provided nightly by unaware customers. 

4. The Garby Theatre: Fine and current 
films of high cultural value are shown as 
frequently as twice a year, here at Clarion's 
Fine Arts Cinema Palace. Just last week, 
to the great appreciation of art-film fans, 
the award-winning "Wild Angels" was shown 
—a thought-provoking and controversial film 
concerning today's misguided but aware 
young citizens in their endless quest for joy 
and something to believe in. 

The films are not the only attraction the 
tastefully decorated ( neoTroUey ) Garby of- 



Chalmers Chosen 
For New Career 

Joe Chalmers, captain of the 1969 Clarion 
^tate basketball team, will begin his career 
next season as a member of the internation- 
ally known Harlem Globetrotters, the clowns 
of basketball. 

Although Joe is only 5' 9", Globetrotter 
Meadowlark Lemon feels that he will be 
a tremendous asset to the team, especially 
under the basket. 

"Many professional players came from the 
ranks of this team, including the all-time 
great. Wilt Chamberlaus" said Joe, as he 
signed a two-year contract. 



fers its customers; also present during the 
shows are the endearing little family of bats 
that chose the warmth of the Garby for 
their damp, dark, and darling home. 

5. Harry's Pizza: A delight to the Italian 
palate, Harry's piping hot pizza goes for 
a mere 10 cents a slice, to the immense 
joy of poverty-stricken and Servomation-wea- 
ry college students throughout the bustling 
metropolis of Clarion. You'll thrill to the 
infinite variety of embelUshmeots: mush- 
rooms— pepperoni— even cheese! You'll agon- 
ize over the choice of a beverage— Pepsi, or 
Pepsi! 

There is standing room only every night 
at Harry's so get there early; the entertain- 
ment is matchless! See the daring waiters 
lift the seething pizza from the molten alum- 
inum trays with tlteir bare hands! Marvel 
at the ingenuity of the maitre'd as he gets 
486 squares from each pizza pan! 

Masters Tourney 
To Be Held Here 
At Hi-Level Course 

Spring is around the comer and the invi- 
tations have already been mailed to golfers 
who will participate in the 1969 Masters Tour- 
nament which will be held in Clarimi at 
the Hi-Level Golf Course. 

Golfers scheduled to participate will include 
Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, Charles Sif- 
fbrd, all former Masters champions, the first 
16 finishers in the U.S. Open, and the U.S. 
and British Amateur champions. 

Competing for the first time in this national 
tournament will be a member of the Clarion 
State varsity golf team. Coach Thomas Car- 
nahan has not yet announced who that gol- 
fer will be, but in a recent interview. Coach 
Carnahan said that it would probably be 
either Terry Franus or Bob CoUar. 




JOE CHALMERS 



Beer Blast' 
Set For 
Student Union 



A "Pre-holiday Beer Blast" will be held 
in the Student Union on Tuesday, April 1. 

Free beer will be distributed from 8 to 
11 p.m. to all students upon presentation 
of a validated I. D. Students are asked to 
bring tlieir own containers, and fliere will 
be a limit of one pitcher per student. 

Tables and chairs will then be moved to 
form a dance area. Entertainment will be 
provided by the juke box with a special 
performance by the now-famous BnxMyn 
Bridge. 

Tlie blast is sponsored by the Student 
Vtdon Board. "Muriel" will act as liostess. 



(the Givenchy of Northwestern Pennsylvania) 
and J. C. Penneys to outfit the performers 
lor the musical at a 20 percent discount, 
but personal wardrobes and personal skin 
were considered adequate for production cos- 
tumes. 

Clarion was chosen from a vast number 
of possible sites for this preview, according 
to Gerome Ragni, co-composer of the score 
from "Hair," "due to the extreme sophisti- 
cation of (Clarion's) totally aware theatrego- 
ers, and above all, its fine hotel accommo- 
dations—a big thank you and PEACE! to 
the Anderson House from the troupe!" 

Clarion was selected over such colleges 
and universities as UCLA, Northwestern Uni- 
versity, Carnegie-Mellon of Pittsburgh, and 
Kutzt*wn State College. The basis for Mr. 
Ragni's judgment was a series of visits he 
recently made to candidate colleges. He visit- 
ed ClariMi a few weekends ago, cleverly 
disguised as a blue Volkswagen with Ogden, 
Utah, license plates. 

On seeing the huge turnout at CSC's last 
visiting scholar lecture— Henry Moore and 
Pablo Picasso debated "The Relativity of 
PointiEism and Mechanistic Techniques as 
Internalized (and Externalized) in the Con- 
text of the Contemporary Plastic and Self- 
Adhering Society," or "Are Paper Clips a 
VaUd Medium?"— Mr. Ragni stated "CSC is 
groovy." 

Don't miss "Hair." It will amaze and titil- 
late your every sense! And for the first 
1,000 members of the audience to reach the 
Chapel, there will be free jars of Dixie Peach 
Hair Pomade, imprinted by the left thumb 
of the great Ragni himself. 

'Food' Course 
Sounds Good 

"ServomaUon has long been known as a 
great modifier of high carbohydrate food- 
stuffs," said Mr. Walter Kubit, division super- 
visor of the catering service. For this reason, 
he has been iovestigatiag the possibility of 
establishing a new course of study for the 
fall semester at Clarion. 

The course wiU be titled "Institutional 
Foods 111" and will be offered to all sopho- 
mores, juniors and seniors. It will be a 
required course for those contemplating mar- 
riage within the next three years. 

The course in institutional cooking will be 
taught by Earl 2terfoss, present manager 
of the cafeteria. Mr. Zerfoss remarked: "The 
metabolism of today's college graduate has 
been so conditioned that, after eating insti- 
tutional food for four years, he can now 
eat only starch. It is my aim to prepare 
the wives and mothers of tomorrow in such 
a way that they can perpetuate the tradition 
of this rich cuisinie, and also expose the 
next generation to the joys of cafeteria eat- 
ing." 

Topics for institutional foods will include: 
"Add Starch to Your Life," "The Many Ways 
of Veal," and "Just Desserts." This course 
will also offer an in-depth study in menu 
planning. 

Women who wish to take the course, may 
sign up for it with their advisors during 
the week of pre-registration. 

Eagles^ Pirates 
To Play Temple 
And the Phillies 

FoUowing an extensive spring tiaining pro- 
gram in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., during Easter 
vacation, the Clarion State baseball squad, 
coached by Joseph Knowles and Richard 
Pae, and the Pittsburgh Pirates will chal- 
lenge Temple University and the Philadelphia 
Phillies to a two-day continuous tournament 
to decide the winner of the Pennsylvania 
Series. 

Probable pitchers for the teams have been 
announced by the managers. For the Pirates 
and Eagles, Bob Veale and Joe Filipowski 
will be the starting pitchers; Fred Covey, 
former member of the Cardinal organization, 
may be called upon for relief. Bill Cosby, 
player-coach for Temple, and Robin Roberts, 
left-handed veteran of the Phillies, will be 
the opposing pitchers. 

In a recent interview. Coach Knowles 
made it quite clear that the Eagles and 
Pirates are the favorites, since two of the 
Eagles, Larry and Garry Schmader, have 
already been signed by the Minnesota Twins. 
Coach Knowles, however, is not too optimistic 
about the chances of using Jay Spang, who 
has recently had a knee operation. 

Jay, who was a strong favorite for Rookie 
of the Year, hopes to be ready for this 
game. He said, "My knee is coming along 
fine, and I definitely think ihat spring train- 
ing in Florida will help me, so I should 
be ready." 

Tickets for the tourney will be on sale 
after Easter and can be purchased in Ernest 
Johnson's office in 132 Peirce Hall. 



To Appear 

A Soul-Rock Review will be held in Tippin 
Gym, from 1 to 3 p.m. Tuesday. There will 
be no admission to students with ID cards. 

Tom Paolino, chairman ol the social com- 
mittee, announced at Wednesday's meeting 
of the Student Senate the names of the groups 
that will be performing. 

The groups appearing will be: Peter, Paul 
and Mary, Donovan, Cream. The Vanilla 
Fudge, Peaches and Herb, The Temptations, 
The Iron Butterfly, and Sly and the Family 
Stone. Also appearing will be the Magnifi- 
cent Men, The Supremes, Simon and Garfun- 
kel. The Miracles, and the Five Stairsteps. 

For the enjoyment of the facidty, Lawrence 
Welk and his champagne bubbles will also 
perform. 

All of the facilities of Tippin Gym will 
he used to help make this event a success. 

The exact locations in the gym where these 
groups will be playing will be posted in 
the cafeteria on Monday. 

Tom Paolino was quoted as saying, "I 
hope this function goes over with the students. 
We (the social committee) regret that we 
cpuld not contract all of the groups the 
students wanted, but we hope that the stu- 
dents will be happy with our selection." 

If this event is a success, a similar review 
will be held April 30 in Chandler Hall. 

Boring Classes 
May Soon Cease 

At a special meeting held Wednesday night 
in the basement of the chapel, the faculty 
of Clarion State College voted 196 to 1 to 
stop boring their students. 

An administrator who shall be nameless— 
Shalby Q. Nameless, to be exactr— was ap- 
plauded wildly when he said: 

"Teachers who merely lean on the lectern 
and talk at their students, teachers who 
make no effort to get their students involved 
personally or intellectually— these teachers 
will be dropped— from the side of the Inter- 
state 80 bridge at Emlenton. Where they 
land is up to the individual, and the law 
of grav'ty." 

The one faculty member who was recorded 
as voting against the motion told a Call 
reporter later: "I was not asleep. It's just 
that I have a low boring point." 



^Overt Sexual Behavior' Here 

Playboy Executive 
Director to Appear 
On Campus April 1 

"Overt sexual behavior on American college 
campuses" svill be discussed l)y Ihijih Hef- 
ner, executive director ol Playboy magazine, 
at 7 p.m., Tuesday, April I, in F'circe Audi- 
torium. 

Mr. Hefner was asked to speak at Clarion 
by members ol the cultural committee. 'Hie 
students .serving on the committee lelt that 
Clarion students would appreciate the oppor- 
tunity to listen to a speaker whose interests 
are as diversified a.s Mr Hefner's. 

Katliy Byrne, a member of the cidtural 
committee, .stated: "It's about lime tliat Cla- 
rion got an iuteiestuig speaker; I'm sur- 
prised that lied even consider coming to 
Clarion." 

Members of the Call staff were also sur- 
prised to discover Uiat Mr. Hefner accepted 
the invitation to speak at Clarion. Consequent- 
ly, a person-to- person call was made to Mr. 
Hefner by a member of the staff to find 
out exactly why Mr. Hefner chose to speak 
here. 

"Rumor has informed me," stated Mr. 
Hefner, "that the students of Clarion are 
deeply concerned over the present sexual 
situation that exists on campus.' For this 
reason, he felt that he was obligated to 
come to Clarion to 'inform students that 
they are not alone with their problems" 
and also "to suggest methods for improve- 
ment." 

Another reason for Mr. Hefner's decision 
to visit Clarion is that he is looking for 
fresh new talent for the "Playmate of the 
Month" section of Playboy magazine. "Next 
month's playmate has not yet," according 
to Mr. Hefner, -^beeil selected. It is our hope 
that one of Clarion's co-eds will qualify for 
the position." 

After tlie lecture, Mr. Hefner will inter- 
view all interested girls. Qualifications in- 
clude a shapely figure, a genuine lack of 
modesty, and a photogenic smile. 

Girls may sign up for an interview in 
the placement office on Tuesday morning. 
Interviews will take place at 8 p.m. in the 
placement office.

Droast Doesn't Want to 
Head FBI "Unless . . /' 

A rumor was vigorously denied this week 
that Thaddeus Droast, college security chief, 
had been picked to succeed J. Edgar Hoover 
8S head of the Federal Bureau of Investiga- 
tion. 

"J. Edgar Hoover is just getting hold of 
his job," said Mr. Droast modestly. "I would- 
n't v/ant to replace him, unless — unless . . ." 

The rumor of Mr. Droast's appointment 
was denied by President Nixon, Attorney 
General Mitchell, Governor Raymond P. Sha- 
fer, President James Gemmell, and Eliza 
Doverspike. Also by Mr. Hoover. Also by 
Mrs. Droast. 



OPINION POLL 



The Railroad Celebrates Birthday; 
But Garneau Has 'Real McCoy ^ 



This week's question is "What thoughts 
do you have as we approach (on May 10) 
the 100th anniversary of the completion of 
the transcontinental railroad?" 

Clyde Basinger, the college mail clerk: 
"There's too much person-to-person confron- 
tation in these United States today. What 
we need is more of the written word, more 
correspondence, more packaging of youf 
thoughts in pamphlet and book form. The 
indispensable memo, the invaluable lists of 
students excused from classes — that's what 
this world needs more of. Sorry, I mean— 
that's of what this world needs more." 

Stanley Michalski, Jr.: "I regret to say 
that my concert band had to decline an 
invitation to play at the May 10 ceremony 
at Promontory Point, Utah. That would have 
a high point, like. But when we got the 
invite to play at the opening of the Playboy 
Club in Philly that same day— well, now, 
after all is said and done ... Hit it, kids." 

Gustav Konitzky: "Ach, es freut mich 
sehr, dass you diese Question upbringen. 
Wenn we have eine grosse Dig in Utah, 
dann lernen we die Truth ubcr die ursprung- 
liche Amerikaner. Ich sage Ihnen die Wahr- 
heit. Ich gebe Sie die Wahrheit, erst and 
endlich die Wahrheit." 

Tom Paolino, former president of Student 



Mock Power Failure 

In honor of the two major power failures 
at Clarion (hiring the past two years, all 
classes will be cancelled on Tuesday, Ap- 
ril 1, to celebrate the first annual mock 
power failure. 

Students are asked to limit the use of 
electricity between the hours of 7 a.m. 
and 12 midnight. Candles will be distrib- 
uted at the College Book Store for the stu- 
dents' use. 

Students will be fined two cents for each 
time they are caught using electricity. All 
proceeds will go to the Future Power Fail- 
ure Fui^ to help defray the costs of future 
repair bUls. 



Senate: "Unless the National Park Service 
lets the Interfraternity Council have a pro- 
per share of that Utah stuff, we're going 
to boycott the whole thing. Like how can 
they do this to us? Greeks have got to 
get their cut. too. I got 35 station wagons 
signed up for this trip, but we ain't going 
to go unless they let us start with the Gamma 
fight song and end with the Zeta love theme, 
hummed in C sharp minor." 

Johnny Garneau, local restaurateur: 
"That Golden Spike stuff out there in Utah 
is for the birds. I've got the real McCk)y. 
Those railroad guys ought to straighten up 
and fly right. See what I mean? I mean, 
if you want a real hamburger, you know 
where to go. In fact, you aU know where 
to go."

rion's dean of student affairs, was announ- 
ced last night by President James Gemmell. 

Dean Elliott is reported to have accepted 
a position as director of a new Federal 
commission which has been set up to study 
the spectrum of academic endeavor. In his 
new work. Dr. Elliott will investigate those 
in the professional area of specialization in 
cognate fields, while at the same time permit- 
ting variation in accord with individual back- 
grounds and aspirations. 

"A positive life orientation is crucial in 
the.se days of confrontation," Dr. Elliott told 
a Call reporter late last night. "We must 
try to maximize the entire human role with- 
out underestimating the level of life energy 
for a dual role commitment." 

The resigned dean said that, in his new 
work, learning-centered views and center- 
viewed learning will be shared with the pro- 
fessional sequence stalls m all aspects of 
dealing with the uptight student. 

Because of Dr. Elliott's resignation, a com- 
mittee headed by Dr. Gemmell is consider- 
ing doing away with the |K)sition of dean 
of student affairs and incorporating this office 
with the Student Senate.

Clarion s Image Can Change 
If the Campus Becomes United 



What is the Clarion image? This 
was a question posed at the discussion 
held in Given's lounge last Sunday. 

It was decided that no matter what 
the image is, it is the students who cre- 
ate it. If a student cares about what 
is happening on his campus, he wiir 
participate and he will support the ac- 
tivity, the function, or what ever. If 
enough students care about the cam- 
pus apathy (if it exists at Clarion), it 
would be non-existent and would no 
longer be a problem. 

Students do care about Clarion. 
Eut the problem is that many students 
do not care enough to become involved. 
They would prefer to sit back and com- 
plain rather than find out exactly why 
conditions are the way they are. The 
opportunities are present; all the stu- 
dents have to do is take advantage of 
them. 

One person cannot change the at- 
mosphere of a campus. It takes the 
combined efforts of the different or- 
ganizations on campus for any change 
to be made. The combined powers of 
the student body have ait several times 
during the year shown what they can 
a'^complish. One example of this is 
the establishment of the judiciary 
board. It is possible to say that with- 
out the united effort this change might 
not have occurred. 

It is difficult today to become 



united because of the fashionableness 
of being an individual or of "doing 
your own thing." Another drawback 
is tliat displaying school spirit is con- 
sids'ed by the mature college student 
as being "high school." But is it so 
"high school" that the football team or 
the basketball team feel that very few 
students are behind them. Or is indi- 
viduality limited when one becomes a 
part of a group desiring a change? 
Hardly. Generally the changes are for 
the individual's benefit, but when the 
individual doesn't care, who will? 

' The self-image of Clarion's stu- 
dents is degrading. They criticize them- 
selves and the school. And if they 
don't like the school, they could al- 
ways transfer. Students complain about 
how much they hate Clarion, but se- 
mester after semester they come back. 
If they really hated it, they wouldn't 
come back; they would go elsewhere. 

The self-image of Clarion can be 
changed. By simply taking an interest 
in what is going on, can change a per- 
son's entire outlook. If a student would 
investigate, he could find out a lot of 
things Clarion has that other colleges 
even universities don't have. 

But this change in attitude will 
take time and unity on the part of the 
students. But isn't a change for the 
better worth it?

GUEST EDITORIAL 



Censorship, Editing Defined; 
Guidelines Generally Sensible 



What is censorship? What is in- 
volved in editing a newspaper? 

If answers to these questions can 
be offered and discussed with reason- 
able calm by various members of the 
college community, we may be able to 
understand better the difference of 
opinion, reported in last week's Call 
between the editors of the Call and the 
representatives of Clarion's fraternities 
and sororities. 

In the Encyclopedia Britannica, 
the article on censorship describes cen- 
sorship as "restriction on ideas prior 
to, or persecution following, their pub- 
lication." Presumably congratulations 
to a winning team can be classified as 
an "idea," though some people might 
object to the classification. "Idea" can 
be used, loosely perhaps, to describe 
an item wishing good luck to a fra- 
ternity member who changed his hair 
style. 

It does not seem to me, however, 
that the decision to shorten a page of 
items submitted by a fraternity or sor- 
ority and to make certain stylistic 
changes can be properly called censor- 
ship. Such decisions and changes are' 
standard editorial work; they are both 
the right and the responsibility of a 
newspaper's editors. 

Whether a paper is a college week- 
ly or a commercial daily, decisions 
about what to print are made by the 
reporters and editors (and sometimes, 
on regular newspapers, by the publish- 
er or owner). Often stories are con- 
densed in order to save space. Some- 
times, on all kinds of newspapers, a 
story may not be printed simply be- 
cause it is poorly written. For these 
standard newspaper practices, censor- 
ship is not the proper term. 

The students who write Greek 
news should bear in mind that their 
writing is not the only writing which 
is edited by the staff of the Call. Press 
releases by William A. Proudfit, the 
college information specialist, are 
sometimes shortened because we don't 
have room for the whole storv: capital 
l'?tters are knocked down to lower case. 
Other stories submitted by students 
and faculty members are trimmed, re- 



vised, and occasionally completely re- 
written. It is common practice on all 
kinds of newspapers, I believe, to short- 
en letters to the editor when necessary 
because of lack of space. 

The Call makes no claim to print- 
ing only well-written stories. The re- 
latively inexperienced staff of the Call 
writes and prints occasional stories 
which cry out for better leads, for 
shorter paragraphs, for tighter editing. 
On the whole however, the reporters 
and editors of the Call are doing a good 
job, according to a sizable number of 
students and faculty members. 

The Greek news coordinator, the 
copy editor, the sports editor, the news 
editor, and the editor-in-chief — all these 
havt done some of the editing of the 
wri^ng submitted for "A Peek at 
Gr^ks." It seems to me that they 
make their decisions about editorial 
chajiges in a sensible, responsible man- 
ner/ In addition, as they edit Greek 
news, they correct the spelling of 
nan^s, and they improve punctuation, 
sentence structure, and clarity of ex- 
pression. Making these improvements 
is part of their job, as are the other 
kinds of changes mentioned earUer. 

This year's editors of the Call ap- 
parently do not wish to follow the Call's 
policy of former years of printing 
Greek news at great length and often 
without editing. It would be unwise of 
me, as the advisor to the Call staff, to 
urge the editors to return to a policy 
of former years particularly when the 
present policy represents (as it does, 
in niv opinion,) better standards of 
journalism. But editors and advisors 
change. Some other policy toward "A 
Peek at Greeks" may be adopted by 
the editors of the Call next year or sev- 
eral years from now. 

If the students who write Greek 
news wish to suggest minor changes in 
the guidelines published in last week's 
paner. they should do so. But the 
guidelines are generallv sensible. I 
think. Perhans they will lead to more 
and better Greek news.

AT THE MOVIES 



In Review-'Last Year at Marienbad^ 



<^iucu ' (5X». 



"La.st Year at Maricnbad," as directed 
by Alain Rcsnais, will be shown tonight at 
7:30 in I'circc Auditorium. 

Alain Rcsnais' 1962 motion picture. "Last 
Year at Maricnbad," like his earlier "Hiro- 
shima, Mou Amour, " is a deep and intricate 
movie. 

As the movie begins, the camera pans 
up and down a classical hallway while an 
organ i)lays music reminiscent of a funeral. 
The plot is slowly revealed. A woman (Del- 
phine Sc'yrig) is visited by a man (Giogio 
Alberlazz) who says that they once had an 
affair ("perhaps at Maricnbad"). She either 
cannot or does not want to remember. Mean- 
while, another man (Sacho Pitoeff), who may 
be hor husband, watches them as he plays 
a mathematical game. 

The plot, however, does not follow linear 
time. The numerous scenes, which vary 
greatly in length, do not follow a sequential 
order. Instead, they are jumbled together 
like pieces of a puzzie. ai «uiy given moment 
we might see the past, the present, or the 
future. It is left for the viewer to decide 
where each piece must go. 

The film also does not establish a conven- 
tional point of view. We do not view the 
movie through the eyes of a specific charac- 
ter, but rather, through each of their eyes 
at different times. Sometimes we see what 
actually has occurred. While at other times, 
we see only what a character would have 
liked to have happcnc^d. 

The viewer, faced with a barrage of pos- 
sibilities, cannot assimilate all that he sees — 
he must pick and choose what he believes 
is important. The ultimate meaning of the 
movie, whether derived from mathematics 



or metaphysics, logic or intuition, must come 
from the viewer himself. 

"Last Year at Maricnbad" is a must for 
all serious students of the cinema. 

Call Applications; 
Submit Them Now 

Applications for the major positions on 
next year's Call should be submitted between 
now and April 20 to the Call adviser, Dr. 
Richard K. Redfern, in Becht Hall. 

Students interested in one of the major 
editorial positions— editor-in-chief, news edi- 
tor, copy editor, feature editor, and sports 
editor— should write a letter of application 
to Dr. Redfern. In the letter the applicant 
should sketch his experience in journalism 
and should explain why he considers himself 
qualified for the job he is applying for. 

In addition, the letter should provide per- 
sonal information (such as year in college, 
major, expected time of student teaching, 
and the like) and should list two faculty 
members who will serve as character re- 
ferences. Applicants who have had stories 
printed in the Call or in other newspapers, 
should make available a folder or scrapbook 
of those stories. 

Students interested in the position of adver- 
tising manager should also apply by April 
20 and should provide similar information. 

This year only three positions have sal- 
aries: the editor, the news editor, and the 
advertising manager. Next year, according 
to present plans, all students holding major 
jobs will be paid, either from Federal work- 
study funds or from the Call's own budget. 



Redfern Urges 



Letters to the Editor: Less mgid Rules 



Hope to Educate 



Editor, The Call: . . 

In an editorial in the Clarion Call for 
March 21, S. M. D. asks if students at 
Clarion care about lectures and tecitals and 
concludes that they do not. I think thqre 
is a serious mistake in that conclusion. There 
is certainly a sufficient audience for con- 
cert and recitals here, though like the aud- 
ience for lectures, it suffers from the surfeit 
and ennui caused by an excessive number 
of lectures and recitals. A.s the Chairman 
of the CXiltural Affairs Committee, I was 
searching the calendar for a go^d date lor 
another concert this Spring and found that 
there was only one which was not within 
a few days of another musical event. 

That one date, April 14 (as I recall), was 
two days away from a lecture. (1 should 
point out that one must also consider proxi- 
mity to test weeks and so on, and that we 
do so.) We do not have as many big events 
as many of the other state colleges, but 
we do have an inordinate number of small 
events, all of which draw upon the same 
audience. Now that audience is not the ma- 
jority of the students and there is no reason 
to suppose or hope that the majority will 
attend cultural events. 

As Gilbert Seldes pointed out in the Satur- 
day Review some years ago, tliere is no 
pre-existent audience for anything. Audiences 
come into being as a variety of things are 
offered to them and as they are trained 
to listen to one thing or another. It is clear 
enough that American audiences are trained 
to listen to what is called popular music 
and that there is also a great deal of training 
in listening to bands. The nature of the 
mass media and the school systems is to 
intensify the majority taste by presenting 
"what people want." The majority becomes 
larger and larger as less and less variety 
is heard. 

There is no reason to suppose that the 
college can turn all of that around by present- 
ing concerts and lectures. All we can hope 
to do is to start to educate and/or train 
an audience for that sort of thing. There 
is a sufficient audience right now to make 
it entirely worthwhile. The concerts present- 
ed by the Cultural Affairs Committee usually 
draw an audience of several hundred and 
that is a good one, especially considering 
that our only good hall, the Chapel, does 
not hold many more. On a basis of student 
fees per audience member that would justify 
double the amount the Cultural Affairs Com- 
mittee gets now, or got last year, according 
to the calcuktions of Professor Lillstrom. 
It would probably double the appropriation 
of about everyone else too, but it seems 
reaUstic to say that if one multiplies the 
audience by the student fe6 and then divides 
by two, one has a reasonable figure. Of 
course, the audience for the orchestra, which 
is sponsored by the Cultural Affairs Com- 
mittee, is much larger than for anything 
else we sponsor (700 or so). 

For the time being there can be little 
thought of having a great big audience for 
cultural events because we have no place 
to have an event which can seat a great 
big audience. The gym has the acoustics 
of the inside of a bass drum and it would 
simply be a dirty trick to bring any good 
group into it. When the new auditorium is 
finished, we shall see what the acoustics 
are like, but there is Uttle prudence in plan- 
ning anything for it next year. The high 
school auditorium (another gym) has an ac- 
oustically dead stage and a very boomy 
hall for the audience, all of which makes 
for a peculiar effect. The Chapad, unsightly 
though it is, has excellent acoustics and 
is the only suitable concert hall on campus 



(the hall beneath the planetarium is dead 
acoustically). 

Now, you cannot get much on the stage 
of the Chapel— perhaps a chamber orches- 
tra, but nothing more. With cultural events 
there are two ways to draw a capacity aud- 
ience; one is with a large group like a 
full orchestra or a ballet troupe or whatever. 
Another is with a very big name, and it 
has to be a very big name indeed. Nicolai 
Gedda is probably the finest tenor in the 
world for song recitals; at least one of the 
very finest. His fee is $4,000. The fee for 
an orchestra or ballet troupe is about as 
high, and we do not have $4,000. 

Even at $4,000, it is doubtful that most 
of the people at the school, (students, faculty, 
staff) will have heard of the artist. Most 
people have heard of Heifeitz, Segovia, Ca- 
sals and Caruso, who is dead. The rest of 
them will be soon, for they are all quite 
old. The fees for artists of such repute are 
as large as those for well-known rock and 
roll bands and singers. 

I don't think that it would be worthwhile 
for Clarion to put out the money required 
for big names, at least not for the biggest 
names. There are a lot of very good per- 
formers who are not well enough known 
to command huge fees and that is the best 
sort of performer for a school of this size 
to get. It is a far better audience exper- 
ience to listen to someone you must learn 
to judge on your own than to sit and receive 
a guaranteed master performance which you 
need not judge at all. 

The Clarion Call could do a lot more for 
these events, by the way, by publicizing 
them in advance. Reviews written a'ter the 
fact (especially by people who cannot afford 
to pan the performance) do little good. 

ROGER HORN, Chairman, 
Cultural Affairs Committee 

Student Disagrees 

Editor, The Call: 

This letter is a reaction to the collection 
of Greek opinions concerning editorial policy 
and the Peek at the Greeks column which 
was printed in last week's Call. 

I won't dwell on my personal opinion of 
the column other than to say that as an 
independent, I am not overly concerned witli 
the vital news that Smiling Lydia received 
burnt orange tea roses and piles of (fill 
in favorite sorority) love from her sisters. 
Or messages of brotherly concern to Pledge 
W. Q. on his past weekend's hangover. 

But that is beside the point. 

I'm writing to disagree with the Greek 
representatives who stated that the CHarion 
Call is a " ... cut and dry paper" con- 
taining stories "... interesting to the facul- 
ty and not to the students. " This grates me. 

Cannot the .student body actually understand 
or find interest in articles about women's 
housing rights, food quality, cafeteria prac- 
tice, pre- and post Senate election coverage, 
doings of the Social Committee, the role 
of student's rights, play and movie reviews, 
opinion polls, possibilities of courses on pass- 
fail basis, and sports news? 

The implication is made that the only intel- 
lect floating around Clarion belongs to the 
faculty. Absurd: The pap>cr faculty -oriented? 
The very nature of tlie articles mentioned 
contradicts this statement. 

The Call has proven itself to be working 
on the side of the students on many issues 
as well as functioning as a reporter of school 
news. 

If certain individuals wish to expand or 
revise the format of a column, OK. but 
don't cast slurs on the paper's content in 
the process. 

KATHY BYRNE 



Questions to Be Debated 

Editor, The Call: 

How many people should be on our Stu- 
dent Senate? Twelve? Twenty-one? Thirty- 
six? Who should be our representatives? Day 
students? Class officers? Greeks? What 
should the requirements be for a student 
to be a member of the Student Senate? 
These and many other questions are being 
debated in Room 233 Peirce Science Center 
every Monday at 7:30 p.m. 

A group of students interested in obtaining 
a better and fairer government for the stu- 
dents of Clarion State College meets every 
week to try and solve the problems of an 
outdated constitution. This group is called 
The Clarion Students' Association Consitut- 
tional Committee. Many of our problems con- 
cern the new constitution, but our greatest 
problem seems to be lack of student partici- 
pation! 

If you are interested in having a voice 
in your college government, be there! Don't 
just complain! Do something! 

Again, the meetings are on Monday nights 
at 7:30 in Room 233 Peirce. Go and voice 
your opinion or keep your mouth shut! But, 
if you don't go and then don't like the results, 
lump it ! !

DUEL IMAGE: RESIGNATION

Richard K. Redfern, professor of English, 
will give a paper at a meeting at St. Bona- 
venture, New York, on April 11 and 12. 

Dr. Redfern will speak on "Are/Is Every- 
body Right? A Pica for Relaxing Traditional 
Rules" at a meeting at St. Bonaventure Un- 
iversity of the New York-Pennsylvania 
branch of the Modem Language Association. 
A wide range of topics in language and 
literature will be discussed at the two-day 
meeting. 

In his paper. Dr. Redfern will urge accep- 
tance as standard English of sentences such 
as ''Everybody put on tHeir coals" (instead 
of "his coat") and "Who did you give it 
to?" (instead of "Whom"). He believes that 
a less censorious, more rational attitude to- 
ward some rules of grammar and usage will 
lead to better teaching of English. 

Among the articles which he has pubUshed 
is a review of the Follett-Barzun book, Mo- 
dern American Usage.

THE CALL — Clarion State College, Claron, Pennsylvania 



Page 3 



Convocation Honors Good Students 



Clarion Stale College's second annual hon- 
ors convocation was held from 10:30 to 11:45 
Tuesday morning in the Waldo S. Tippin 
Gymnasium. 

The program was held to honor students 
who have achieved academic excellence- 
seniors for at least seven semesters work, 
juniors, five semesters, sophomores, three 
semesters, and freshmen, one semester. A 
list of those students recognized was pub- 
lished in last week's Clarion Call. 

The program began with an impressive 
faculty processional in which the faculty mar- 
ched across the gym balcony and filed into 
seats on the gym floor directly behind the 
honors students and their parents as directed 
by student monitors Leslie Hudak and Pam 
Grantham, Tom Paolino, and Tom Somers 
escorted the speakers to the platform as 
the college concert band under the direction 
of Dr. Stanley F. Michalski, Jr., provided 
appropriate muuic in the form of "Academic 
Processional" by Clifton Williams. 

Honor Students Cited 

After an invocation by the Rev. Dr. Eldon 



K. Somers of the Campus Ministry, the band 
presented the concert etudes "Mclancolique" 
and "Heroique" both by Alexander Scriabin. 
Mr. James D. Moore, dean of academic 
affairs, then proceeded to congratulate the 
honors students, citing that students were 
the reason for the college, faculty, and admin- 
istration, and calling the students to further 
achievement and a striving for human dig- 
nity. 

President James Gemmell also offered his 
congratulations, and introduced the guest 
speaker. Dr. David W. D. Dickson, Provost 
and Vice President for Academic Affairs 
at Federal City College in Washington, D.C. 

After offering a third set of congratula- 
tions. Dr. Dickson remarked that students 
today appreciate academic achievement as 
opposed to earlier days. As a college student 
he belonged to a group known officially as 
the ten most intellectually curious students, 
but which was known around campus as 
the ten most "curious" intellectuals. 

Open Society Needed 

That was his last humorous remark as 



he plunged into an analysis of today's society. 
The analysis was based on a brief history 
on the university which means "the whole" 
and was originally meant to build a citizen 
of the world, a full man who would u^ 
rea.son and logical inquiry in all fields. He 
summoned the audience to two traditional 
ideals: respect for an open cosmopolitan so- 
ciety and respect for rule of reason in tliis 
society. 

The rest of his lecture renewed again and 
again his call for an open society in which 
passions are subdued and problems discus- 
sed calmly and collectively. He said that 
lately we are progressing farther from the 
angels and closei to tlie beasts. 

At Federal City College, the newest urban 
experimental land grant college, where Dr. 
Dickson is provost and vice president of Aca- 
demic Affairs, he faces directly the problems 
plaguing our inner cities. In an area 70 per- 
cent black, the college has 93 percent black 
student body and about a 50 percent black 
faculty. There are found the same basic 
problems that are found throughout our coun- 
try. 



Negroes Arc Impatient 

Negroes arc impatient and seem unable 
and unwilling to talk. While people are either 
guilt ridden or overly missionary-minded peo- 
ple trying too hard not to be prejudiced. 
Academicians are not used to war, pressure, 
and protest. The new black power racism, 
in which Negroes are now fighting to be 
separate from white people, represents a 
wish for a closed society. 

Dr. Dickson offered three suggestions. First, 
colleges should remain open to the city, be 
receptive and listen to everyone, and meet 
problems head-on with hard reasoning and 
thick skin. They should no longer cloister 
themselves away from the world. Second, 
colleges should meet these new problems 
by doing their "own thing"— insisting on open 
discussion and debate. And third, colleges 
should never "substitute simple answers for 
complex problems." Passion should give way 
to reason, provincialism to cosmopolitanism, 
and a closed society to an open society. 



Negro Respects Himself 

Dr. Dickson closed by citing two good 
results of the black revolution. It is begin- 
nuig to make us aware of how many differ- 
ent people have contributed to things that 
we all hold most dear. Our worid was not 
entirely molded by white Europeans. The 
second result is that the Negro has come 
to respect himself as everyone must respect 
himself before he can expect anyone else 
to have this respect for him. 

Dr. Dickson's address was well received 
although it did not seem to apply to Clarion 
State as a small rural college. He mentioned 
at the beginning of his lecture that everyone 
is a world citizen and should be aware and 
concerned. This concept served to tie his 
speech in with Clarion students a little better. 

The program concluded much as it began 
with a benediction by the Rev. Somers and 
a recessional, "Einzugmarch der Bajarcn" 
by John Halvarsen. The convocation was 
followed by a luncheon for honor students

t)avid W. D. Dickson's microphone be-

Yutzy Suggests 
Changes in CSC 
Discipline Rules 

On Tuesday, March 18, an open meeting 
of the student faculty committee studying 
procedures for disciplinary actiwi was held. 

Faculty members present were Dr. George 
Harmon (chairman). Dr. Mary Hardwick, 
Dr. Wallace Brewster, Dr. Tracey Buckwal- 
ter, and Mr. Emmctt Graybill. Dorothy Law- 
ry and William Santee were the student mem- 
bers in attendance. 

Six other students were present at the 
meeting as interested visitors: Lawrence Car- 
ter (Intercollegiate Conference on Govern- 
ment), Alfred Serff (IGC), Raymond Yutay 
(ICG and Student Senator), Tom Paolino 
(past president of the student body), Tom 
Somers (president of the Student Senate), 
and Kenneth Jumper (student). 

After the meeting was called to order the 
floor was opened for the visitors to make 
suggestions as for the manner in which a 
judicial structure should function at Clarion. 
Mr. Yutzy was tlie first to comment and 
offered a number of ideas. They were based 
on a student-faculty judiciary with original 
and appellate functions. 

Cases dealing directly with general college 
regulations would be sent straight to thii 
board from decisions of referral boards or 
interhall councils. These latter living-group 
judiciary boards would, as they do now, 
function under dormitory constitutions and 
make decisions on offenses such as coming 
in after hours and breaking other dormitory 
rules. 

Mr. Yutzy also suggested that there should 
be a person in the Dean of Students office 
who would be responsible for discipline of 
obvious offenses with clear-cut penalties. 
Such .H system would prevent the student- 
faculty judiciary board from becoming bog- 
ged down with minor and obvious offenses. 

Next to speak was Mr. Paolino, who had 
four basic ideas. First, he suggested that 
before the board is activated, advisory com- 
mittees should set up guidelines to organize 
college regulations, establish definite penal- 
ties for each offense, and decide what type 
of cases the board would accept. Secondly, 
the .severity of an offense would decide 
the original level of jurisdiction as was al- 
ready indicated when Mr. Yutzy suggested 
the board be for original and appellate cases.

His third idea was that the final board 
of appeals consist only of students so that 
the responsibility and blame would rest on 
the shoulders of fellow students instead of 
upon faculty and administration. Finally, Mr. 
Paolino said that a stronger Inter-Fraternity 
Council Ck)nstitution is now being formulated 
which could handle all fraternity disciplinary 
matters. This statement was followed by con- 
siderable discussion as to whether "all" re- 
ferred to "all" offenses by fraternity mem- 
bers against any regulation or against "all" 
IFC rules. 

Mr. Jumper spoke next and recommended 
that the referral boards be eliminated be- 
cause they tend to give unfair hearings, espe- 
cially to unpopular students. Throughout the 
meeting this point was elaborated on. It 
was suggested that dorm discipline could 
be referred to the dean, head resident, or 
resident assistants, although this is tlirust- 
ing a lot of responsibiUty on resident assis- 
tants. 

Mr. Jumper also suggested that the student- 
faculty board consist of students, faculty, 
and one person appointed by the administra- 
tion. Mr. Serff believed that lower judiciaries 
in the dormitories, fraternities, interhall 
councils, and the day student organization 
could take on more serious cases than they 
do at present. 

Mr. Yutzy brought up the point that a 
student should be able to bring a citizen's 
case to the judiciary board when he feels 
that he has been offended by another student 
even if the offense is not covered by an 
actual college regulation. The meeting ad- 
journed at 9:30 after a statement by MV. 
Carter that the new judicial system shoiUd 
definitely have a system of appeal mechan- 
isms.

A Peek 
at Greeks 

TAU KAPPA EPSILON 

Many Greeks and non Greeks question the 
good of fraternities at CSC to Uie town of 
Clarion itself. Tekes are a part of "the 
community" and want to be good citizens; 
they have an obligation not only to the frater- 
nity but also to the community as a whole. 
Tau Kappa Epsilon stresses that the Greeks 
can work with the community more to bring 
about a better relationship between townsmen 
and college students, and at the same time 
help tiie community where help is needed. 
Tau Kappa Epsilon expressed their will to 
work for the community last Saturday when 
they held their annual Public Service Week- 
end. 

This year's project was to "Help Keep 
America Beautiful." Beginning at 1 p.m., 
the fraters met in the Chapel parking lot 
to organize for their afternoon of work. Short- 
ly after meeting, the ten carloads of fraters 
split up in groups of two or three cars 
and took different roads out of Clarion. 
Routes 66 and 68 were cleared of litter within 
an eight-mile radius of Clarion, and Route 
322 going east out of Clarion was also cleaned 
for a distance of eight miles. In addition, 
a carload of fraters centered on cleaning 
certain sections of town. 

Also on Saturday, a few of the brothers 
organized a basketball team to play the job 
corpsmen at Blue Jay Job Corps Camp. 
This was one of the many times that such 
a game had been organized. 

The weekend was highlighted with the tra- 
ditional pledge-brother football game on Toby 
Hill. The brothers came through at the end, 
winning by a score of 28-14. 

SIGMA SIGMA SIGMA 

Congratulations to Kathy Wanick on her 
lavalieriug to Robert Dragovich, Theta Xi. 

Congratulations to our sorority basketball 
team on defeating the Delta Zetas last Mon- 
day. 

DELTA LAMBDA TAU 

Clarion has many unseen problems, and 
also unnoticed workers who try to relieve 
them. The Methodist Church is an impubli- 
cized site for the fight against cerebral palsy. 
Every afternoon from one to five, volunteers 
from the Clarion area work to help the 
stricken children. The volunteers "pattern" 
tlie children for muscle development which 
aims toward coordination. 

These children range in age from one to 
seven years old. This is a free service per- 
formed to help relieve the family of the diffi- 
culty of "patterning." The sisters of Delta 
Lambda Tau are proud to be working along 
with such volunteers. Help is always needed 
and if anyone is interested, information may 
be obtained by calling the Methodist Church. 

Five new pledges have been pin-pledged 
during open-rush. Congratulations are extend- 
ed to Mary Ann Banner, Lyn Phillips, Kathy 
Dayton, Sue Griffiths, and Katie Westcott. 

Slave Day is here again. Need a "soap- 
job" on your car to rid it of Clarion mud? 
Shoes polished? Shirts ironed? If you're busy 
getting ready for Easter a DLT will be 
willing to help for only $1 per hour. Sisters 
are available by calling 226-9934. 

DELTA ZETA 

The 1969 Spring Pledge Class of Delta Zeta 
has chosen the following girls to serve as 
their officers: Karen Ellis, president; Cheryl 
Helterbran, secretary; Cheryl Stanko, trea- 
surer; Judy Estep, song leader. 

We are all looking forward to our annual 
Delta Zeta dinner dance on Saturday, at 
Cross Creek Country Club in Titusville. Linda 
Rockhill, social chairman, has done a fine 
job of planning an enjoyable evening for 
everyone. 

The Delta Zeta State Cmivention will be 
held in Harrisburg on April 12 and 13. Mrs. 
Gail Grejda, the chapter advisor, will ac- 
company the members of the newly-elected 
executive board. 

We enthusiastically support the IFC-Pan- 
hellenic dance which is scheduled for April 
12 and hope that all Greek organizations 
will work together to make this cooperative 
effort a big success.

Baseball Squad Practices Daily; CSC Will Host NAL4 
Opens Season April 14 at Home 



by JOHN ZAHORAN 



Seasoning and experience arc the key goals 
for this year's baseball squad. Coach Joe 
Knovvles believes that this season is the time 
for strengthening the Golden Eagles for a 
championship in the near future. However, 
he is not downgrading this year's team; 
the Golden Eagles have much more depth 
and all-around ability than last year's squad. 

Coach Knowles has placed much confidence 
in his catchers. Kevin O'Donnell, Elwood 
Bressler, and Bill Abbott are expected to 
give the Golden Eagles strong supixnl from 
behind the plate. The experience of the vet- 
eran catchers is necessary for the seasoning 
of young pitchers like Charles Christ, Mike 
Harann, and Joe Filipowski. The hopes for 
a championship team depend on the develop- 
ment of this young pitching staff. 

Perhaps the most soUd component of the 



team is the infield. With Tom Wulk on first, 
co-captain Dick Grozniak at .second, and Ned 
Skrocki, backed up by Paul Jagman, at third, 
the Clarion infield should be agile as well 
as dependable. The outfield positions are 
as of now undecided. Co-captain Fred Wick- 
strom and Tom Geedy are almost sure start- 
ers. Filling the remaining outfield position 
will be Ray Rykaceski or Larry or Garry 
Schmader. 

Coaches Knowles, Richard Pae, and Stan 
Hallman do not consider any of the teams 
in the league to be weak. The exceptionally 
powerful teams seem to be Indiana, Lock Ha- 
ven, Pitt, and Youngstown. However, the 
Golden Eagles are known to survive the 
strongest competition and come up with a 
proud and winning team. 



Four Eagle Cagers Mentioned 
In Top Conference Scorers List 

Four Clarion State cagers — Joe Chalmers, Buddy Martin, Dennis Luce, 
and Larry Kubovchick — were among the top fifty scorers in the Pennsylvania 
State College Conference in the recently-completed basketball season.

'71 Swimming Meet 

Clarion State's natatorium will be the site 
of the National Association of Intercollegiate

The Olympic-size pools in Waldo S. Tippin 
Gymnasium was offered by Clarion's swim- 
ming coach, Charles Nanz, and Director of 
Health, Physical Education and Recreation 
Donald Leas to the rules and sites committee 
at the NAIA Championships last weekend 
at George Williams College, Downers Grove, 
Illinois. 

Overwhelming approval of coaches from 
throughout the nation followed the recommen- 
dation of the committee, which assured Cla- 
rion's choice over Lewis and Clarke College, 
Portland, Oregon, and Hendrix College, Con- 
way, Arkansas. 

Mr. Nanz, who will inaugurate the Golden 
Eagles' first varsity swimming and diving 
schedule next fall, will serve as meet direc- 
tor of this event, which will bring top swim- 
ming teams from all over the United States 
to Clarion.

Madrigal Singers to Perform Mon. 



On Monday, the Clarion State Madrigal 
Singers will present their repertoire at 8 p.m. 
in the College Chapel. The singers have given 
numerous performances during the '68- '69 
school year, including a very successful four- 
day tour of Pittsburgh and surrounding high 
schools. The tour was climaxed by a per- 
formance at EHiquesne University. 

Under the direction of Milutin Lazich, the 
Madrigal Singers have perfected three differ- 
ent types of madrigals — Italian, Engli.sh, and 
contemporary works. The prttgram on Mon- 
day will consist of: 
Fauna Conzone (Sing, Sing a Song for Me), 

Orazio Vecchi; 
Good-day, Dear Heart (Bonjour, mon Coeur), 

Orlando di Lasso; 
Truly I Must Perish, Claudio Monteverdi; 
11 Bell' Humore (Good Humor), Giovanni

H. Song of the Hayharvesters from Hiadel 
HI. Dancing Song from Medzibrod

Because there are twenty-five singers in 
all— a large group for madrigal .singing— the 
.singers have had to master the art of blend- 
ing their voices together. The ultimate object 
is that the five voices on each part sound 
like only one voice. 

Members of the Clarion State Madrigal 
Singers are: 

First Soprano— Debbie Baird, Kathy Bar- 
ron, Nancy Brendlinger, Mary Jane Kirby, 
and Pat McClain. 

Second Soprano: Paula Douthett, Becky 
Drake, Kandi Rodda, Rita Roper, and Kathy 
Young. 

Altos— Linda Anric, Peggy Black, Carolyn 
Bower, Carol Christie, and Candy Skinner. 

Tenors— Chris Daniels, Doran Gilhousen,

Meet Martha Reeves and The Vandellas

with the third member of the trio, Rosalind. The social 
committee is sponsoring this group in concert on Thurs- 



day evening as part of this year's Spring Weekend ac- 
tivities. 



Of f-campus Housing and Extended Hours Martha ReSVeS 
For Senior Girls Now Being Promoted; 



Change May Occur Before Fall Term 



The women leaders of Clarion State College 
are currently trying to promote, through Wo- 
men's Interhall Council, a change in the hous- 
ing policy for women students. The proposed 
petition would request that all senior women, 
or women over 21 years of age, be per- 
mitted to seek their own off-campus hous- 
ing. Following approval by a majority of 
resident women, the petition would then be 
presented to . liie senate and administration 
for approval. "It is hoped that the modifi- 
cation will go into effect before commitments 
are made for fall housing." 

The women leaders feel that "the segment 
of women students over 21 years of age need 
not be forced to abide by the same regulations 
as firesihmen women." They would also like 
to suggest extended hours on weekends on 
an honor basis for those senior women who 
are unable to find off-campus apartments. 

The students would not be required to state 
their whereabouts, they need only designate 
they are out of the dorm. Security guards 
would make rounds between 3 a.m. and 4 
a.m. to permit entrance of those who prefer 
entering the dorm at that time rather than 
waiting for the re-opening of the dorms at 
7 a.m. 

Mrs. Eliiel Vairo, assistant dean of stu- 
dents, feels that "this is a minimal change 
and one we could 'implement.' It just isn'- 
practieal to say there should be no hours 
at aU." i 



At present there is no approved housing 
list available for women students to refer 
to. Notices have been sent to local newspa- 
pers concerning the proposed modification so 
interested community homeowners could sug- 
gest available housing. 

Orchestra Plans 
Final Concert 

The Clarion State College Symphony Or- 
chestra, under the direction of Edward Ron- 
cone, will present its final concert of the

Watts Speaks Wednesday; Zen 
Lecturer is Asked,'Will the Real 
You Please Step Forward' 



Editor's Note: Wednesday evening Alan 
Watts presented a lectiu-e on Zen in the 
College Chapel. The review reflects Uie en- 
tire mood of the lecture. 

By AATIS LILLSTROM 

Assistant Professor of Communication 

Could anyone in the audience that evening 
have noticed that Alan Watts was not on 
the stage speaking to gather our laughter, 
arouse our suspicion, or divert our day- 
dreams back to our labors. Did anyone notice 
that the real Alan Watts was not present 
on the stage but that he sat towards the 
front of the audience and an imposter gave 
a superb Zen lecture. Yes, a good Zen lec- 
ture would be not to have appeared as he 
did and did. 

His reastms appeared, his lack of reasons 
tippeared, his funny stories that did not make 
us laugh, and his unfunny stories that did 
make us laugh were there as he would have 
written them. 

The practice of truth and illusion, speaking 
and listening was almost complete in the 
dialog he drew around our "insufficiently 
conscious" notions of the real world. "Things 
are not as they are described"— "stop think- 
ing—have internal silence." (but pause to 
laugh) (He laughed before and we laughed 
after after.) 

"Words are all noises" fell and unfell about 
above across after against among around 
at before behind beside between by down 
during except for from into on over through 



to towards under up with and within cate- 
gories and no cagegories easily. 

"You all know who you are— you are not 
the John Doe or Mary Smith you pretend 
to be." I asked him, "Will the real you 
please step forward," and he answered my 
question honestly, "I am right out front." 

Can there be any question of impersona- 
tion. 

"You don't end with your skin you have 
a responsibility to the external world" Some 
live it with a bang (Chesterton) some with 
a whimper ("Eliot") 




And Vandellas 
Will Perform 



The social committee is presenting Martha 
Reeves and the Vandellas in concert next 
Thursday as part of this year's Spring Week- 
end. The concert will be held at 8 p.m. 
in Tippin Gymnasium. Adrnissicm is free to 
Clarion students. 

Members of this group include Martha Ree- 
ves, Lois Reeves, and Rosalind (her last 
name was not available). 

The Vandellas were presented a music 
plaque by comedian Phil Silvers for tlieir "siz- 
zling rock classic," "Heat Wave," which was 
then nominated for a Grammy Award as 
the best Rhythm and Blues record of the 
year. Some of their other hits are "Dancmg 
in the Streets," "Quicksand," "My Baby 
Loves Me," "Ready for Love," "Jimmy 
Mack," "Love Bug Leave My Heart Alone," 
and "Honey Chile." Five best-selling LP's and 
12 hit singles since their first audition, the 
trio has become one of Motown's perennial 
favorites. 

Debaters Finish 
In Upper 10% 

Clarion debaters completed their season ov- 
er Easter recess by placing in the upper 
10 percent among 168 colleges and univer- 
sities entered in the Pi Delta Kappa National 
Tournament at Arizona State University, 
Tempe, Arizona. 

The Clarion team were one of three col- 
leges scoring double superiors in the event, 
others being North Texas State land Lewis 
and Qarke (Oregon). The team, coached by 
Dr. Roger Hufford, scored the maximum of 
20 sweepstakes points. 

Two teams earned superior ratings in the 
standard division as juniors Mary Lou Mc- 
Cauliff and Betti Ferguson compiled 7-1 re- 
cords by defeating the University of Arizona, 
Eastern Washington, Idaho State, Wisconsin 
State at Eau Claire, Stetson (Florida). Hard- 
ing (Arkansas), and Panhandle (Oklahoma). 

Sophomore Marilyn Roslanowick and fresh- 
man Barry McCtauliff defeated Southern Il- 
linois, Macalester, Texas, Geneseo, Morris 
Harvey, Ferris State and Evangel. McCauliff, 
a novice, won 19 of his last 22 debates and 
took top honors in his final three tourneys. 

All four Clarion debaters won gold medals 
symbolizing the highest level of achievement 
in Pi Delta Kappa. 

Adding six points in cross examination de- 
bate were senior Pat Dobson and junior Kaye 
Berkey. They recorded wins over Fresno 
State, San Fernando State, Whitman (Wash- 
ington), Marietta, and Southwestern (Kan- 
sas). 

Points in oratory also went to the (Haricm 
debaters, with Mary Lou McCauliff and Betti 
Ferguson both earning excellent ratings in 
this category.

Spring Week PSASG Convention Held Here 
Starts Thurs. Last Weekend; 125 Delegates 

From State Colleges Attend 



By NANCY GRANBERG 

It's Spring, and Clarion will be celebrating 
its arrival by holding Spring Weekend, Thurs- 
day through Saturday. One of the biggest 
social events of the term, this year's acti- 
vities should prove to be some of the best 
ever. 

The weekend begins on Thursday evening 
when Detroit's Martha Reeves and the Van- 
dellas will present a concert in Tippin Gym- 
nasium beginning at 8 p.m. This group has 
appeared all over the country, and is one 
of the great Motown sounds around today. 
A few of their biggest hits include "Heat 
Wave," "Dancing in the Street," and "Jimmy 
Mack." 

Friday evening will be highlighted with the 
presentation of the musical abilities of the 
Greeks. This year's Greek Sing will include 
eight frats and seven sororities vying for 
the honors won last year by Theta Chi 
Fraternity and Alpha Sigma Tau Sorority. 
They will present a program consisting of 
everything from spirituals to love ballads and 
folk to patriotic songs. The evening should 
be entertaining as well as exciting — if the 
past few years are any indication — and an 
event that no one should miss. The competi- 
tion will be held in Tippin Gymnasium. 

The annual Spnng Formal will be held 
Saturday night in Chandler Dining Hall fea- 
turing music by the "Supreme Court." 

The Greek Olympics, another annual event, 
will also be held sometime during this 
weekend, tliough the exact date has not been 
set as of this writing. Some of the high- 
lights of these Olympics are the pyramid 
building contest, football games, and some 
new activities that are to be added this year. 
'One of the new activities will be the College 
Bowl, similar to the one seen on television. 

AWS Elects 
New Officers 

The results of the recent election for AWS 
officers are as follows: Pat Losik and Jeaooe 
O'Hop will share the responsibilities of the 
office of president. Pat will assume leader- 
ship the fall semester and Jeanne will assume 
the responsibilities while Pat is student teach- 
ing the spring semester. Bcmnie Siepella Will 
act as vice president, first semester, with 
Kathy Kinley filling the position second Mm- 
ester. Pat Angel was elected recording se- 
cretary and Sandy Marsh wUl be treasurer. 
The lAWS representative will be Linda Deca- 
pua. Katie Wescott was elected correspond- 
ing secretary. 

The new officers will be installed at the 
AWS banquet to be held Tuesday, April 22, 
to honor women students who have main- 
tained a 3.60 qpa. The guest speaker will 
be Dr. Dana Still.

The Pennsylvania State Association of Stu- 
dent Government's Convention held at Cla- 
rion last weekend is now over, but the re- 
solutions passed and defeated are written 
down and the real work of the convention 
is about to begin on the campuses of par- 
ticipating colleges. Nearly 125 delegates from 
all the state colleges and Indiana, with the 
exception of Cheyney, attended the two days 
of conferences. 

The convention convenes annually and ev- 
ery two years is held in the West; thus. Clar- 
ion was very proud to accept the challenge 
and responsibility of being host for the 1969 
PSASG Convention. 

The main purpose of PSASG is "to promote 
a high degree of cooperation and understand- 
ing among the students, faculties, and admin- 
istration" of the participating members. Dis- 
cussing the problems faced by individual col- 
leges with other members of PSASG is an 
effective means to arrive at the desired sol- 
utions. 

Planning for the convention started months 
ago when Clarion's Student Senate appointed 
a coordinating committee to correspond with 
the various colleges and to fix the menus, 
lodging, and schedules. Members of the com- 
mittee included Tom Paolino, chairman, Ka- 
tie Wescott, Ginny Elish, Carol Robinson, 
and Pat Losik. Their work was well done 
and added much to the overall success of 
the convention. 

Members of each couege were placed in 
one of the six discussion groups while the 
president of each college met in the old Sen- 
ate room in Becht for a Board of Presi- 
dents Meeting. Delegates from Clarion ser- 
ved as chairman of the individual groups. 
The six discussion groups and Cilarion's chair- 
man-delegate were: Student Government re- 
lationship with other campus organizations 



(AWS, IFC, etc.), Janet Potors; Judicial 
Standards Board, Dan Kaiiieri; Legitimate 
channels for chani;e, Jan Jolin.ston; Involve- 
ment and off-campus living, Mary Lou Mc- 
Cauliff; student participation in college po- 
licy-making, Kay Vutzy; and .student apathy 
—their fault or yours, Leshe Hudak. 

Indiana's Presence questioned 

Rumors circulated that a motion wa.s going 
to be presented at the convention that would 
exclude Indiana Uuiver.sity from PSASG. F'ro- 
ponents of the measure feel that Indiana 
is too large to be in an as.sociatloii of state 
colleges. They feel that Indiana's problems 
are not the .same as those faced by the 
other smaller colleges. One delegate from 
California said "Indiana i.s an inconsistency 
in terms of size, problems, and relative bene- 
fit to PSASG. Defending Indiana's position. 
Bracken Burns, President of Indiana's Stu- 
ent Senate, said that Indiana is closer to 
the state colleges since it is state controlled 
and that there was no feasible way for In- 
diana to become a member of a university 
association or another group. He said that 
Indiana does have a tendency to pull away 
from state colleges on certain matters. At 
the same time. Bums feels that Indiana made 
an equal contribution to the convention and 
that Indiana is small enough that it was 
able to learn as much from the discussions 
as the other schools. 

Proxy Vote 

Shippensburg representatives • left the con- 
vention Friday and returned to their campus 
to attend to campus business. They voted 
on the proposals of the discussion groups 
before the general assembly convened on Sat- 
urday afternoon; however, their votes count- 
ed only for resolutions not amended. Thus, 
Shippensburg voted for only three measures. 



Frank Coleman Will Appear 
As Guest Star of ^Carnival' 
Running April 30, May 1-3 



Campus Creep 



Throughout the week many students have 
noticed and participated in Sigma Sigma Sig- 
ma 's Campus Creep Contest. A representative 
from each of Clarion's fraternities is running 
for the title of Campus Creep of 19^. 

Each vote is a penny, and of course with 
the rivalry between fraternities, many indi- 
viduals purchase more than one vote. The 
sorority is using the vote money for their 
National Service Project— North Carolina Me- 
morial Hospital's Robbie Page Memorial 
Fund. 

The Campus Creep of 1969 wiU be announc- 
ed at the dance tomorrow night and be pre- 
sented with an engraved plaque. Contestants 
for the position are: 
Alpha Gamma Phi — Louie Musante 
Theta Chi — Doug Shaffer 
Theta Xi — Don Knisely 
Tau Kappa Epsilon — Gem Ingram 
Phi Sigma Epsilon — John Schmader 
Sigma Tau Gamma — Rich Eddy 
Phi Sigma Kappa — Jim Hubert 
Alpha Chi Rho — Cortez Puryear 



All the wonderful, exciting people of the 
carnival will be appearing at the Tippin 
Gymnasium April 30, May 1, 2, and 3 under 
the direction of Dr. Mary Hardwick, associate 
professor of speech. 

Carnival is the story of Lily, a yoimg girl 
who has run away from home and is attracted 
to the glamorous atmosphere and people of 
tflle carnival. There she meets and falls in 
love with two wonderfully alive and engaging 
puppets, one a walrus, only later to find 
it is not the puppets but Paid, the puppet- 
master she is in love with. 

Starring in the role of Paul is guest star, 
Frank Coleman, a young actor from New 
^ York. Frank Coleman has just finished a 
successful nm in New York as the Italian 
peddler Bartolomeo Vanzetti in Sacco-Van- 
Eetti, the musical dramatization of the con- 
troversial murder case of the '20's. Since his 
Broadway debut as Hassan-Ben in Kismet 
with Alfred Drake, New York audiences 
have applauded him as Count Bellair in 
The Beaux' Stratagem, Tom Bouchs in Kurt 
Weill's Down in the Valley, and Camillo in 
Hie White DevU, the last for the famed 
Circle-in-the- Square. 

Mr. Coleman has appeared throughout the 
country at some of the most famous Summer 
Stock theatres including the St. Louis Munici- 
pal Opera, where he was seen as Duval in 
The New Mo<ni and Captain Orton in Tlie 
King and I, with Ann Blyth. Other Sum- 
mer Stock and regional theatre assignments 
have included such diverse fare as Jack 



Absolute in The Rivals, El Gallo in The 
Fantasticks, Paul in Barefoot in the Park, 
Thomas in The Lady's not for Burning, Nes- 
tor in Irma la Douce, Cass in Any Wednesday, 
Capt. von Trapp in The Sound of Music, 
Aw^legate in Damn Yankees, Arthur in Came- 
lot, and many others. 

Critics claim he is "one of the finest sing- 
ing voices to be heard in years." Mr. Cole- 
man will arrive in Clarion on Sunday to be- 
gin rehearsal for Carnival. Tickets will be 
available starting Monday 11-1 at the din- 
ning hall and 1-4 in the chapel.

Venango spsEA to Meet Bloodmobile Was Hcrc Tues.; 

Gammas Back Annual Project 



Next Friday members of the Venango Cam- 
pus SPSEA will meet with Dr. Lawreoce 
Smite, the SPSEA advisor, and the Clarion 
SPSEA officers. Bill Santee, Bill Pore, Jo- 
anne Vance, and Sue Riddle. 

Dr. Smite will discuss the benefits of belong- 
ing to an organization such as the SPSEA. 
Bill Santee, president of the Clarkin chapter, 
will inform the Venango chapter of state con- 
vention activities and main campus activities. 
To promote unity, an open invitation has 
been extended between the two groups for 
all SPSEA programs. 



Clarion College Readers are only $1,0M 
short of the "England Fund" goal. If you 
would still like to contribute, please semi 
gifts to: Clarion College Reaiters, Music 
HaU. 



The bloodmobile from the American Red 
Cross in the Johnstown regional area was 
set-up for blood donations in the lobby of 
Tq)pin Gym on Tuesday from 9:00 to 5:00. 
It was sponsored by Alpha Gamma Phi fra- 
ternity as one of its annual service projects. 

BiU Botti, chairman of the project, said 
they expected approximately ninety students 
and faculty members to donate Uood. If 
the busy first hour was an indication of 
the number of donors, the project could de- 
finitely be considered a success. 

Anyone donating blood could specify it as 
a replacement (ht just as an insurance to 
cover any needs of their family for \he next 
year. At Qarioa, replacements were being 



taken for Scott Shirey and Renee Sue Mont- 
gomery at Children's Hospital in Pittsburgh, 
Clara Louise Riser at the West Penn Hos- 
pital in Pittsburgh, and Donna Ganoe at 
Presbyterian Hospital also in Pittsburgh. 
A Red Cross aide said however, that it 
was best for the students to donate for 
their family rather than as a replacement, 
unless they planned to give more than once 
a year. 

Because of the success of the bloodmobile 
at Clarion, it will be sponsored by the Gam- 
mas twice next year, in addition to their 
annual projects with the heart fund and the 
crippled children's society.

Psychological Unrest is Caused 
By Stagnant Education 



It iias come to our attention, in a 
most direct manner, tliat Clarion State 
College is suffering acutely from a 
psychological arrest of creativity, bet- 
ter described as an overwhelming stag- 
nation on the part of the faculty. 

The majority of students g e t 
enough hours of sleep at night, but 
they continue to slide gently to the 
tiled classroom floors hour after hour, 
lulled by the sleep-inducing drone of 
the mental tape-recorders of various 
memorable professors. We are not 
anemic or expiring from horrendous 
cases of iron-poor blood; we are simply 
and pathetically bored. 

Certainly many self-righteous pro- 
fessors will declare their students apa- 
thetic and uninterested in any course 
involvement other than passing with' a 
grade of D or better. But it is more 
likely that 3000 yawning students ^m 
in a state of shock due to their litter 
disbelief that a professor with an MA. 
or a Ph.D. can actually repeat the same 
lectures year after year, changing only 
the order of the matching questions on 
his exams or his personal cut system. 

Ingenuity in courses, originality in 
lectures — these are almost totally ab- 
sent from our programs of education. 
What more than apathy can be expect- 
ed from a student who attends clas- 
ses only to avoid a lowered grade for 
overcutting while hi^ presence each 
hour is noted only by a tiny red check 
in the square corresponding to his as- 
sifjned seat? How many courses are 
there which load students with infan- 
tile busy work instead of challenging 
and interesting discussions and lec- 
tures? t: j:±. 

Elementary education majors suf- 
fer more than other students from a 
monstrous overload of frequently mean- 
ingless but time-consuming "education" 
courses. Elementary niajors must ful- 
fill a total of an incredible 113 required 
credit hours before graduation. With 
roniiircments like these, there is so lit- 
tle time left for electives in areas of 

GUEST EDITORIAL 



specialization that elementary educa- 
ton graduates are probably -better 
equipped to teach how to teach than 
anything else. 

The problem is very difficult to 
resolve. We are not suggesting a to- 
tal revolution involving the mass 
slaughter of all professors (especially 
since some of them seem to be among 
the dear departed already), but would 
it be asking such a great deal for the 
Clarion faculty and administration to 
look within themselves for an answer 
to the question of apathy? 

Admittedly, many students are in 
college only to obtain a legal document 
stating that they are legally capable 
of teaching. But there are students 
among the living who find, or want to 
find, a challenge in college life. They 
want to be involved and are depressed 
and disillusioned when they realize 
that there is little to involve them per- 
sonally outside of extracurricular ac- 
tivities. 

We would suggest a campus-wide 
evaluation of each student's professors 
and the value of their courses he teach- 
es, based on each student's personal 
feelings. The general overall results 
could be considered valid. Surely a 
few professors and administrators 
would be mortified to discover how 
they stand with their students; hope- 
fully a few would also be pleased (we 
admit not all our staff is mentally con- 
stipated). At any rate, the evaluations 
would serve the purpose of allowing 
dissatisfied students to air anonymous 
gripes. We feel that such an evalua- 
tion would open the sleepy eyes of even 
the most dormant educators, if only 
long enough for them to be shocked 
for a moment before they again drift 
into suspended animation. Natui'ally 
we hope that the reaction would be 
strong enough so that such professors 
would awaken with a renewed sense of 
duty to their students, and would re- 
model their courses accordingly.

Complaining No Solution; Changes 
Can Only be Made by Working 



This editorial is a call to duty to all 
Clarion State College students to get 
moving to bigger and better things for 
our campus. 

Complaining is no solution. It 
will get you nothing. You can com- 
plain if you want, but no one will listen 
to you unless it is another person in 
the same rut as yourself. There are 
ways things can be done or policies 
changed at Clarion and it is up to each 
person on this campus to get out and 
do something. What you have, you get 
by working; no one will give you any- 
thing. 

We have found that women's hours 
could be changed, why not regulations 
on on-campus parking? Women's resi- 
dence halls have open houses; why not 
men's? 

There are various committees set 
up by the Student Senate and the Fac- 
ulty Senate. These are the most ef- 
fective ways of student participation. 
The members of these committees must 
be encouraged by their peers, be it 
students or faculty, to work for pro- 
gressive changes. 

Student Senate should not be an 
oligarchy that dictates what happens 
on this campus, nor does it want to be. 
The other 2800 students should be con- 
cerned enough to work through the 
"legitimate channels for change" to 
accomplish the necessary adjustments 
in our system. But it is the duty of 
the senators and other campus leaders 
to get out and stimulate the majority. 
It is the responsibility of every officer 
of every organization of this campus to 
ask the members of his group to work 
for a better Clarion State College. 

Wc have heard all too much about 
the anathy on college campuses. Stu- 
dent leaders have accepted the duty of 
fighting apathy bnt the obligation 



should rest with the individual. Each 
president, secretary, and other officers 
should get out and reach each person 
that he can. He should build enthusi- 
asm about our campus and push pro- 
grams to better it. 

Every social and service organiza- 
tion should have many constructive pro- 
grams throughout the year. The Gam- 
mas support the Bloodmobile and Child- 
ren's Hospital. The Alpha Sigma Taus 
sponsor record hops nearly every week. 
Clarion's choir and band provide vari- 
ous concerts throughout the year. This 
list does not stop here. Neither should 
it stop where it is now. 

After the leaders have talked un- 
til they are hoarse to their fellow mem- 
bers to work for the betterment of our 
' campus, and after the students have 
pleaded on bruised knees to their pro- 
fessors and administrators for changes 
in the cut system or the grading sys- 
tem or rules about housing, on and off 
campus, if there is still no change, 
these people should still not be dis- 
couraged. Not every change can be 
made easily. 

At other schools, rallies, both con- 
structive and destructive, have changed 
minds. I hope that the people at Clar- 
ion exhaust every possible rational 
means of initiating constructive change 
with their peers and superiors before 
resorting to disruptive methods in ord- 
er to obtain change. Rallies and dem- 
onstrations can also be constructive if 
used as a peaceful means of expressing 
diversive views on various issues. 

But Clarion State students should 
not talk of demonstrations, yet. We 
must join together, determine our 
goals, sneak out for what we want, and 
reach those people who will fulfill our 
needs and compromise our wants. 

— Leslie Hudak, Student Senator 




Letters to The Editor 



Sincere Thanks Extended 

To the Editor: 

I would like to express my sincere thanks 
to the entire student body for being such 
great hosts to the delegates of the Pennsyl- 
vania Association of Student Governments 
Conference which was held last weekend. I 
received numerous comments from the dele- 
gates on how friendly the students at Clarion 
State were. 

I would also like to express sincere thanks 
to Mr. Earl Zerfoss and the staff of Chandler 
Dining Hall on doing such an excellent job 
on both banquets, a job that every student 
of Clarion can be proud of. The delegates 
loved the food and dining hall here at Clar- 
ion. Finally I would like to thank Dean Moore 
and Dr. Elliott and especially Dean Still on 
doing an excellent job of speaking at the 
conference. 

Once again, thank you for helping make 
the conference a total success.

Chairman, Planning Committee 

Graduate Defends Policy 

To the Editor: 

As a 1967 graduate of Clarion and advisor 
of the Kiskizette, school newspaper of Kiski 
Area High School, I have been able to keep 
up to date with campus happenings through 
our exchange program with the Call. 

The recent charge of Greek organizations 
that the Call is anti-Greek is the most unin- 
telligent accusation I have evtr heard. 

I am also employed as an editorial writer 
on a large suburb.in newspaper and can 
fully appreciate what journalistic standards 
the Call is trying to achieve. 

"A Peek at the Greeks" usea lo contain 
unfounded rumors, private jokes and many 
other bits and pieces of questioned validity. 
While I'll admit some of th>ese were humor- 
ous at times, why degrade the quality of the 
entire newspaper for one article. 

Our high school paper "used" to contain 
such nonsense until rated by Quill & Scroll, 
newspaper critical service for high schools, 
which said: "Such features are really below 
high school level of taste, maturity and per- 
formance." If it is below high school matur- 
ity, I can't understand why college students 
are so concerned. . 

Hats off to the Call editors for sticking to 
their editorial guns. Next time you have 
problems, hand the Greek committee an As- 
sociated Press Style Book and let them swal- 
low that! 

SALLIE E. NOLF, Oass of 19C7 

Commuters Have Problems 

To the Editor: 

The administration treats the commuting 
students as second-class students. Commuters 
are graciously tolerated by the "authorities" 
of Clarion State College. Likewise the com- 
muters have been cooperative with the re- 
quests of the administration. 

As a commuter and as a senior I feel 
qualified to speak about the problems that a 
commuting student has had in the past four 
years on Clarion campus. Clarion students 
may be unaware of the fact that the com- 
muting students have an organization called 
the Day Students' Association: 

As an ex-vice president of this organization 
I have discovered the many pitfalls, tons of 
red tape, and rulings that the administration 
has handed down to the students. Most stu- 
dents will accept a logical ruling when it is 
presented in a fair and reasonable manner. 
Perhaps there are no logical explanations. 

The renovated Student Union is indeed 



marvelous. No one questions the long overdue 
improvements. 

As a commuter I question only the false 
promises made by Dr. John Nanovsky. When 
the day students were forced out of Davis 
Hall, Dr. Nanovsky promised that we would 
be given a new lounge, especially for day 
students, in the new Student Union. It would 
be as nice as, if not better, than the old day 
room. Also it would include lockers which 
had been requested by the day students for 
several years. 

, Day Room Is Smaller 

We have our new day room. It is one-fourth 
the size of the old one with six tables and 
two dozen chairs that we are not allowed to 
arrange. Our couches and end tables have 
disappeared. We are blessed with five noisy 
radiators and no means of regulating heat 
output. We have no lockers. We have been 
informed that if we want lockers we will 
have to petition for them. It took only four 
years for the administration to tell us about 
this tofshnicality. Ah! Sweet progress! 

Commuters have enough problems with 
parking without having imaginary problems 
forced upon us by the administration. For 
years I have heard the statement that "the 
commuting students are isolating themselves 
on campus." I recall many meetings I at- 
tended as a freshman which were held by 
Dr. Elliott, dean of students, in an attempt 
to unite the various factions on campus. 

Neither commuting nor non-commuting .stu- 
dents were aware of the existence of these 
factions until Dean Elliott pointed them out 
to us. One can only wish that those in high 
places would not look for problems that do 
not exist but rather look for solutions to the 
real problems that our growing campus faces. 

I imagine that in the near future I will hear 
that Dean Elliott has united the commuters 
with the rest of the student body. My only 
remark will be, "It is not difficult to create 
unity where unity has always existed." 

Commuters arc no longer arguing because 
they are busy going about their business get- 
ting an education. We take part in campus 
activities and if we carry our lunch in a 
brown bag we do not mind the nickname one 
dean once used to describe us. There are 
worse things one could be called than 
"Brown-baggers." It is almost a badge of 
distinction. After all, the Jews wore a yellow 
star. 

And Even JSotv . . . 

Yet even now we are not to be left in peace. 
Dean Elliott's disciple, Dr. Nanovsky, is in 
charge of the Student Union. The day stu- 
dents have been banished to the furthest cor- 
ner of his kingdom. Our lounge is what used 
to be the boys' locker room. 

Dr. Nanovsky's daily threats and abolish- 
ments no longer bother us. He can make his 
little speeches on cooperation and his lec- 
tures on proper conduct but no one is listen- 
ing. We have had our fill of the administra- 
tion's conduct and their type of cooperation. 
Threats of taking our day room away do not 
alarm us because we do not have much to 
lose. 

Rave on. Dr. Nanovsky! Soon you will have 
no one to listen to you and you will be forced 
to walk slowly back upstairs to your office 
and do some real work. The fun of haras- 
sing students will be over. In the meantime, 
I will refrain from rattling my packed lunch 
too louhly, I will return my coffee cup to the 
"hub," I will talk to my friends Mily in a 
whisper, I will tolerate your power speeches 
if they make you feel better, but if you do 
iM>t mind I would just as soon control my 
own breathing. Good Day, Big Brottier!

MRS, BAYS RAISES QUESTIONS 

Arc Students Tired From Sliidyiiig? ^ 1 
Arc Too Many Going to College? ^ 

two major tests fall on the same date, 
they work furiously trying to catch up. 
In the process they get behind in the 
other subjects on which they were not 
being tested, and so the whole vicious 
circle begins again. 

Too many outside activities is still 
another factor in student fatigue. Some 
hold jobs, working many hours from 
necessity to pay their way through col- 
lege. I admire them, but how unwise 
they are to attempt to carry a full aca- 
demic load! Often for these students 
all their courses become nightmares. 
Or, I find good students, not otherwise 
employ,Kl, carrying a load of twenty- 
one hours. It is, in my opinion, too 
much and the college should make 
every effort to regulate more strictly 
the loads a student can take, for he 
himself rarely does this voluntarily. 

The most serious of all the factors 
in the fatigue syndrome among stu- 
dents seems to me to be that too many 
are going to college who have neither 
the aptitude nor the desire for study. 
These students are not to be criticized 
really, for they are the victims of a 
fundamental misunderstanding on the 
part of the educational Establishment: 
that everyone or nearly everyone, 
should go to college. 

Many students now in college need 
a different type of education, one that 
is less verbal, less abstract — a vocation- 
al education. Naturally, students who 
are being pressured into doing that 
which they have neither the aptitude 
nor the desire feel fatigued from it. 
They fail to see its relevance; and how 
right they are, for their needs are dif- 
ferent.

THE CALL — Clarion State College, Clarion, Pennsylvania 



Pigt 3 



March Mitchell Wins Award 
For Best Bill in Harrisburg 



A Peek At Greeks 



Editor's Note: In the March 14th 
issue of the Call, the editor wrote an 
editorial about an essay in This Week 
magazine by Bergen Evans, professor 
of English at Northwestern University. 
In his essay. Professor Evans charged 
that "students are grossly overworked 
at tasks that are meaningless and ir- 
relevant to them, that a student's cours- 
es demand too much time in reading 
and other preparation." 

Tn response to an invitation from 
the Call, Dr. Gwendolyn Bays com- 
ments on some of the issues touched 
upon by Professor Evans. 
* * * 

For some time now I have been 
noticing fatigue among college stu- 
dents, and the increasing cases of mon- 
onucleosis and stomach ulcers among 
them. Obviously it is not possible for 
a student to see relevance in any of 
his courses when he is almost totally 
exhausted. I do not believe, however, 
as Dr. Evans indicates in his article, 
that this fatigue comes from so many 
hours of study. 

I would say, and I have checked 
this with students, that it is the very 
exceptional student indeed who spends 
two hours of preparation outside of 
class for every hour in class. It is my 
contention that Dr. Evans has conclud- 
ed, from the fact that students are ex- 
hausted, that they are so from too much 
study, relevant or irrelevant. 

Investigated Students' Fatigue 

Last year I set out to investigate 
for my own satisfaction why students 
are so tired. They wrote me essays on 
the subject in French (short ones, in 
order not to tire them more). I then 
talked to a number of the more fatigued 
ones, and I can still hear the story of 
one of the more typical cases. She con- 
fessed that she really never got to bed 
before 3 or 4 a.m., but that she was by 
no means studying all this time. 

It seems that she spent her hours 
before check-in time dating and then 
began studying around midnight or 1 
am. Having an eight o'clock class 
meant that she never really got enough 
sleep. She was, however, alert enough 
at 8 a.m.; but by 4 p.m., when she had 
her class with me, she was in shambles 
from sheer exhaustion. I finally told 
her that she would either have to 
change her habits and get some sleep 
or give up the afternoon class alto- 
gether. Happily, she decided to do the 
former, but I am not always so success- 
ful in my persuasions. 

The question of why students per- 
sist in keeping hours which are pre- 
judicial to their health and well-being 
merits careful examination by all of us. 
With many freshmen, sitting up late is 
a status symbol and source of personal 
pride. This suggests that it has as its 
basis a revolt against parents who made 
them go to bed at home earlier than 
they wanted, that they have chosen 
this means of establishing their own in- 
dividualities. Perhaps we of the facul- 
ty could show them more constructive 
means of developing their individuality. 
When a student tells a faculty member 
how late he sat up studying for the test, 
the most relevant reply is: "Yes, but 
when did you begin?" 

Work Piles Up 

A second major factor in student 
fatigue is that students often let their 
work pile up for two or three weeks. 
Many absolutely will not study unless 
they are going to have a test. Then, 
when they have the misfortune to have 



Vocational Fducation Snubbed 

But this is the one fact of life 
which the educational Establishment 
will not admit. Instead, more pres- 
sures are being brought to bear upon 
colleges to lower admission standards 
so that we can turn out an even greater 
number of misfits. Why do we look 
so snobbishly upon a vocational educa- 
tion? Isn't it because we have erron- 
eously equated verbal or mathematical 
ability with intelligence itself, and no 
one wants to admit that he is not of 
equal intelligence with his neighbor? 

Surely we must have learned by 
this time that intelligence takes many 
forms: there is the mechanical intel- 
ligence of a Thomas Edison, the social 
intelligence of an Eisenhower, there is 
musical intelligence, artistic intelli- 
gence, the intelligence of a craftsman, 
etc. Look at the effects upon society 
of our sending so many to college. It 
is becoming increasingly difficult to 
find a good mechanic, plumber, gar- 
dener or others in perfectly worthy 
and respectable vocations. Surely it is 
more snobbish to look down upon these 
vocations and to pressure into college 
students who do not belong there, than 
to admit human differences honestly 
and to try to give to each human be- 
ing the type of education from which 
he can benefit the most. 

Not everyone wants to go or should 
go to college, and many of those now 
in college would admit this if they 
were not under pressures of many 
sorts to remain. Why can't we set 
Johnny free — to go or not to go to col- 
lege, the alternatives being a good vo- 
cational school or on-the-job training 
in business or industry?

ADVISOR - Richard K. Redfern 



Marcia Mitchell, an Economics major, re- 
ceived the "Best Bill Award" at the 23rd 
Intercollegiate Conference on Government 
March 27-28-29 in Harrisburg. 

Her bill entitled "to establish a permanent 
state public school salary board" brought 
her a plaque Saturday in the final session 
of the three-day model state legislature meet- 
ing held at the Penn-Harris Hotel and the 
Education Forum. Some 500 .students from 
78 Pennsylvania colleges and universities 
competed in the exercise. 

Miss Mitchell, one of a delegati<»i of 23 
students from Clarion State interested in gov- 
ernment, proposed a bill authorizing a five- 
member board to "investigate working condi- 
tions and salaries of teachers as compared 
with those in other states, and to propose 
minimum starting salaries and working con- 
ditions." 

Her proposed legislation recommended a 
board consisting of two members appointed 
by the governor to represent the public. Two 
additional members would be named by the 
teachers through the Pennsylvania State Edu- 
cation Association (PSEA) and the American 
Federation of Teachers (AFT). The fifth 
member would be an economic advisor also 
oppointed by the governor. 

Under the mock legislative plan, the board 
would arrive at alternate proposals which 
would be submitted for referendum of full- 
time teachers. Teachers would then deter- 
mine a plan to be effective for the follow- 
ing school year, with the procedure to be 
repeated every two yeari. 

In conclusion. Miss Mi'.chell proposed that 
a teacher who strikes would be penalized 
one and one-half days'pay for each ^ day he 
strikes. 

Some 500 delegates, each one to have sub- 




MAki lA MITCHELL 

mitted a bill, attended the model legislative 
exercise starting at noon Thursday, March 
27, with registration and ending with a meet- 
ing of the Executive Committee at noon Sat- 
urday, March 29. 

Miss Mitchell was chairman of the Depart- 
ment of Labor and Industry committee for 
the conclave. 



Pan-Hel Council Madrigal Concert 



Elects Officers 

On Wednesday an installation banquet was 
held in Chandler Dining Hall for all sorority 
women and their advisors. The new officers 
are: President, Cathy Wildnauer; vice pre- 
sident, Shawn Williams; secretary, Diane 
Wilson; treasurer, Lorrie David; social chair- 
man, Ellen Blough. 

Panhellenic Council is enthusiastically mak- 
ing plans with I.F.C. for the upcoming Spring 
Weekend. New additions to the Greek acti- 
vities include: The College Bowl, similar to 
the one viewed on television, and Several 
unique games. The Council extends an invi- 
tation to the students and faculty to attend 
the College Bowl, the Martha and the Vandel- 
las concert, Greek Sing, Greek Olympics, 
and the Spring Formal. Look for signs on 
campus for times and plaees. 

AWS Members 
Attend Convention 

During Easter vaication, Lejslie Hudak, 
president of the Association of Women Stu- 
dents, and Pat Losik, president-elect, attended 
the 1969 Convention of the Intercollegiate 
Association of Women Students at the Uni- 
versity of Alabama in Tuscaloosa. The theme 
of the convention was "Confrontation (a re- 
cognition of the realities of our society) . . . 
Contemplation (study and consideration of 
issues) . . . Commitment (a determination 
to resolve the problems of the human com- 
munity)." 

The delegates were confronted with the 
problems of institutional racism, the Selective 
Service System, and other pressing problems 
found on college campuses today. Among the 
proposed resolutions passed by the convention 
were the following ideas: 1. "I AWS recog- 
nizes that institutional racism exists on col- 
lege campuses" and it was resolved that 
each local AWS closely examine its campus 
attitudes and become actively involved in 
eliminating camnus recism. 

Also, 2. All AWS organizations should as- 
sume leadership in presenting "political, soc- 
ial, moral, cultural, and educational issues" in 
order to meet the constant changes in these 
areas. 3. lAWS should study state and federal 
laws concerning the use and possession of 
marijuana and "actively work toward the 
reduction of penalties." 4. A motion was 
passed to support the curriculum reforms de- 
signed to promote the principles of academic 
institutions. 5. lAWS decided to advocate 
"a more equitable Selective Service," endor- 
sing such programs as a lottery volunteer 
army or a National Service organization. Co- 
pies of this proposal were sent to the Presi- 
dent, Secretary of Defense, and the Direc- 
tor of Selective Service. 

Dean Ethel Vairo claims that when Leslie 
and Pat returned from the convention, "they 
were really fired up about racism" and they 
are investigating Clarion racial policy to de- 
termine whether or not it lives up to the 
ideals of the convention. 

Dean Vairo explained that these conven- 
tions are held biannually and in the inter- 
vening years regional conventions are held. 
She stated, "I feel that these conventions 
are helpful and I feel they have contributed 
greatly to the women leadership on campus."

Is ' Success fuV 



By DAVID MALLORY 

Assistant Professor of Music 

The concert presented Monday, March 31, 
by the Madrigal Singers, under the able direc- 
tion of Milutin Lazich, was a very successful 
event. This group has appeared on the CSC 
campus numerous times and toured Pitts- 
burgh last semester under the direction of 
its permanent conductor, William McDonald. 

The evening's program was divided into 
three groups of compositions. Most of the 
works of the first group were Italian madri- 
gals of the 16th century, evoking moods rang- 
ing from melancholy to good cheer. The qual- 
ity of execution by the performers showed 
accomplishment in precision and the develop- 
ment of a keen sense of pitch, especially 
in Montiverdi's "Truly I Must Perish," where 
the control of chromatic harmonies and poly- 
phonic lines is most challenging. 

The first part of the program ended with 
the jocose rendering of Bach's English Suite 
No. 2 (originally for harpsichord) in the man- 
ner of the Swingle Singers with such non- 
sense syllables as "dooby-dooby-doo." 

This light-hearted vein was continued af- 
ter a brief intermission, where the perform- 
ers conveyed a spirit of 16th century England 
with madrigals by such composers as Mor- 
ley, Bennett, and Purccll. 

These were followed by a number of con- 
temporary works, one of which was Bartok's 
Four Slovak Folksongs, a challenge to any 
vocal ensemble with its 20th century har- 
monies and rhythms. 

Throughout the evening and the final work. 
Alleluia by Randall Thompson, which was 
dedicated to the memory of former President 
Dwight D. Eisenhower, the diction and tone 
quality was to be commended. 

Albright Speaks 
Tq Fraternity 

Kappa Delta Pi's program for this semes- 
ter has included sponsorship of Harold B. 
Albright of the Venango County Area Voca- 
tional Technical School, who spoke to the 
members of the fraternity and invited faculty 
members on April 10. Mr. Albright discussed 
the purpose and operation of the Vocational 
Technical School, stressing its importance to 
those students who are not inclined to at- 
tending college. 

The Kadelpians are presently preparing for 
their spring initiation of 33 new pledges: 
Carol Berzonsky, Judith Bishop, Peggy Brit- 
ton, June Bruner, Marie DeGraw, Sheila Don- 
aldson, Sharon Hall, Roberta Hannold, Linda

Audience Listens to 'Highly 
Enjoyable Program^ of Music 



By ROBERT VAN METER 

Professor of Music 

An enthusiastic audience listened to a high- 
ly enjoyable program of chamber music on 
Wednesday evening, April &, at the College 
Chapel. The program, expertly performed by 
Burton Hardin, horn, Janet Berberian, mezzo- 
soprano, and Annette Roussel-Pesche, piano, 
presented music by the classicist Joseph Hay- 
dn, the romanticist Franz Schubert, and the 
contemporary composer Bemhard Heiden. 

Not the least of the evening's many points 
of interest was the excellent opportunity af- 
forded the listeners to observe and compare 
the treatment of the horn's expressive capa- 
bilities by each of the three composers. 

The Concerto No. 2 in D Major for Horn 
and Orchestra, by Joseph Haydn was char- 
acteristic of this composer's classic style, 
combining a direct approach to melody with 
firm rhythmic organization and clear, clas- 
sic form. Writing for the waldhom, an instru- 
ment without valves or pistons which de- 
pended entirely on the natural overtone ser- 
ies for its range of notes, Haydn demonstra- 
ted keen awareness and command of this 
instrument's potential in terms of range and 
melodic design. 

While exploiting fully the natural proclivity 
of the waldhom for typical horn-calls using 
the lower harmonics, Haydu also used expres- 
sive melodies shaped in long, singing phrases. 
Mr. Hardin projected vvith musical sensitivity 
and technical brilliance this strong and af- 
firmative music, with its characteristic Hay- 
dn optimism and verve. 

The highlihgt of the evening's performance 
was the rarely jjerformed Auf dem Strom 
by Franz Schubert, for voice, horn, and piano. 
Superbly sung by Janet Berberian, mezzo- 



soprano, this work proved to be an example 
of fine chamber music. Warmly romantic with 
its suggestion of forest and open spaces, Schu- 
bert's music here reveals the horn as the 
romantic instrument par excellence. Blend- 
ing beautifully with both voice and piano, 
the dark timbre of the horn formed a rich 
musical texture which complimented the ex- 
pessive beauty of the vocal part. 

Mrs. Berberian was in complete command 
of the musical material, projecting the rom- 
antic character ,of the poem with perfect 
control. Her voice is rich and vibrant, with 
a wide range of both dynamics and color 
which she used expertly to reveal the dra- 
matic intensity of the vocal line. 

Bemhard Heiden 's Sonata for Horn and 
Piano, although written in the same year 
as the Horn Sonata of Paul Hindemith, never- 
theless shows strong influence, and leaves 
no doubt oi Heiden's study and apprenticeship 
with Hindemith. Highly contrapuntal, not 
overly dissonant, filled with active and con- 
sistent rhythmic propulsion, this sonata re- 
veals Heiden as a masterful craftsman in 
the excellent writing for both solo Instrument 
and piano. The interest in this work lies not 
so much with the exploration of instrumental 
color as with the development of independent 
yet related musical ideas. Each instrument 
pursues its own way, but always in close 
relationship with its counterpart. 

This is a work which demands much of 
both participants. Mr. Hardin's skillful and 
highly developed command of his instmment 
was apparent throughout this work, as it 
was throughout the evening. The fine per- 
formance of Annette Roussel-Pesche at the 
piano was consistent with iwr work on all 
previous appearances here. Her playing is 
sensitive and expressive. 



AT THE MOVIES 



In Review — ^The Fixer ^ 



Yon can tell you are getting on when you 
want your calendar to have big numerals 
instead of pictures oi pretty girls.— "Oie Wall 
Street bursal. 



Last Monday's Academy Award presenta- 
tion virtually ignored John Frankenheimer's 
"The Fixer." The movie, based on the novel 
by Bernard Malamud, was probably too bra- 
trl, too personally assulting, for an academy 
that thinks sentimental musicals are the best 
example of the art form. 

The story takes place in Russia a few 
years prior to the Revolution. A Jewish han- 
dyman (Alan Bates) migrates to Kiev where 
he hopes to find work. Here he is arrested 
and accused of committing a rituaUstic mur- 
der. The government, hoping to capitalize <m 
anti-Semitic feeling, manufactures evidence 
to prove his guilt. The fixer, morally sup- 
ported by the defense attwmey (Dick Bogar- 
de), refuses to compromise. 

Alaa Bates gives a powecM p«r£on&«aoe 



as the C!hrist-like figure. The character might 
easily have bepome melodramatic. Bates how- 
ever, gives an intense, realistic portrayal. 
Likewise Dick Bogarde handles the role of 
the state appointed lawyer with great re- 
straint. Frankenheimer's direction is subdued 
yet powerful;, he captures the spirit of the 
Malamud novel. 

The viewer leaves the .theatre feeling per- 
sonally assaulted — he has seen man's inhu- 
manity to man yet through it all there is 
the inescapable feeling that man will survive, 
"Tlie Fixer" Is a j)ower|ul reaffirmation of 
the human sp^t to endure.

The Pennsylvania As.sociation of College' 
Chemistry Teachers, PACCT, will hold their 
18th annual convention here at CSC in Peirce

The PACCT is an organization de.signed 
to encourage the improvement of the teach-

sent out questionnaires to high school and 
college chemistry teachers to prepare the 
way for the symposium to be held Satur- 
day, at 1:05 p.m. on freshman chemistry 
and the adequacy of high school preparation. 
Some questions the symposium is designed' 
to answer are: How many levels of freshman 
chemistry should be taught? ; What should be 
taught in these freshman courses?; What 
should be eliminated? ; Is high school chemis- 
try really necessary? ; What should be taught 
in high school chemistry courses?; What 
should be left to the colleges?; What should 
be taught in advanced chemistry courses 
in high school? 



To answer these and other questions, there 
wUl be a paO^l of five representatives from 
different types of schools to present varied 
viewpoints. This panel is headed by Dr. Har- 
old State from Allegheny College. ITie other 
members are Dr. Ronald Marks, Indiana 
State University, representing a large state 
teachers college; Dr. Fred Suavely, Franklin 
and Marshall, representing a small liberal 
arts college; Dr. Joseph Dixon, Penn State 
University, representing a large state univer- 
sity; and Dr. William Fatciey, Carnegie-Mel- 
lon, representing a large liberal arts school 
concentrating heavily on engineering. On both 
days there will be an extensive exhibition of 
chemical instmmentation, laboratory supplies 
and technical books in the Peirce Science 
Library. 

A1.S0 on Saturday, for the wives of the

Davis will present a display and discussion 
on world artifacts which she has collected 
on her several trips around the world. 

Sometime during the two-day convention, 
the !PACCT will hold an electitm for their 
officers for the year 1969-70. 



Six CSC Students 
Offered Contracts 

Six aarion State College .students have 
been offered contracts to perform in summer 
stock this summer at the Salida Educational 
Community Theater, Salida, Colo., as a result 
of their recent performances in "Ah, Wilder- 
ness," presented by the Department pf 
Speech and Theater. 

Talent scouts Mr. and Mrs. Steven BuMer 
of the Vanguard Company, Pittsburgh, selec- 
ted seniors Cortez Puijyear, William Demma, 
and Letitia Ve Haun, a January 1969 grad- 
uate, junior Kenneth Miller, and sophomores 
Roseann Zarfemba, and Steven Brezzo, from 
a number of Clarioii students interviewed 
on their ability to do a prepared reading

Venango News 



Students Attend Meeting ' 

Those attending the Concerned Students of 
Venango Campus meeting last Thursday were 
given substantial encouragement regarding 
the issue of Venango Campus as a branch 
of Clarion State College. 

Serving on the panel headed by student 
Brian Musselman were State Senator Richard 
Frame, Representative Alvin Kahle, and Dr. 
Dana Still representing President Gemmell. 
Others on the dais included Alastair Crawford 
of the History Department and students, Ka- 
thy .Rodgers, Martha Dudrow, and Bob Smith. 

Present in the audience were Dean Mellon 
and Lee Heilman, Leonard Abate and John 
Reinhardt of the Venango Campus faculty. 
The administrator of the Edinboro Campus 
at Warren and Dr. Russell L. V. Morgan, 
administrative head of Venango Campus, 
were also in attendance. Also present was 
County Commissioner Joseph Levi. 

Senator Frame reported that the Superin- 
tendent of Public Instruction, Dr. David , 
Kurtzman, is taking a "more flexible stand" 
on the Issue of community colleges versus 
branch campuses. He reported further that ' 
each campus would be evaluated against es- 
tablished criteria for branch campuses. 

When questioned by the audience on the 
Legislature's action. Rep. Kahle replied to ' 
the effect that absenteeism and shortage of 
time were prime factors in the lack of action. 
Sen. Frame added that the State Board of 
Higher Education was divided on the issue, 
further delaying a final decision. 

A committee chairman of the Concerned 
Students of Venango Campus, Bob Smith, ' 
revealed that 54 percent of local citizens con- 
tacted have responded to his questionnaire. 
The great majority are in favor of retain- 
ing Venango as a branch campus. 

"Where do we go from here?" was the , 
question which set the tone for the rest of 
the meeting, the 75 persons in the audience 
asking many questions of the legislators and 
Dr. Still. They were urged to write letters 
to Dr. Kurtzman, and students from other 
areas were urged to write to their Repre- 
sentatives. 

On tiie issue of property transfer from the 
non-profit Venango Campus, Inc., to the Com- 
monwealth, Sen. Frame and Rep. Kahle ex- 
plained that action could now avoid the Leg- 
islature by virtue of a new law passed in 
Harrisburg last year. The law in effect allows 
the Governor to accept, on recommendation 
of the Superintendent of Public Instruction 
and the State Board, a gift of land such 
as that which Venango Campus occupies. 

Reconvening after a brief adjournment, the 
group entertained other questions dealing 
with the Campus, state loans and scholar- 
ships, and university status for state col- 



Canting Completed 

The casting for the Campus Players' pro- 
duction of three one-act plays has been Com- 
pleted. The Players will perform Anton Che- 
kov's The Proposal, Thornton Wilder's The 
Long Christmas Dinner, and Edmond Ros- 
tand's The Romancers. 

Performing m Tlie Proposal will be Becky 
Sheavly as Natalya Stepanovna Chubukov, 
a 25-year-old daughter of a landowner. Becky 
has had extensive experience in drama in 
her alma mater, Butler High School, and 
she worked on the costume committee for 
the Player's production last November. Bec- 
ky is a freshman at Venango Campus. 

CJhris Graeff, also a freshman, will take 
the role of Stepan Stepanovich (Jhubukov, 
a middle-aged landowner and father of Nat- 
alya. Chris was also active in drama at 
Greensburg High School and assumed a iria- 
jor role in last semester's productions. 

Ivan Vassilcivich Lomov, a young neigh- 
bor of the (Jhubukovs, overanxious about his 
health, will be played by sophomore Ronald 
Brown. Mr. Brown was a thespian at Frank- 
lin High School. 

The student director for The Proposal, will 
be Sam Busco, a freshman at Venango, who 
has acted at Farrell High School and who 
also was active last November as a thespian 
at Venango Campus. 

The Proposal centers on Lomov's attempt 
to propose marriage to Natalya. The humor 
increa^s as the two dispute many trivial 
matters concerning their lives and families. 
Finally when Natalya realizes that Lomov 
intends to propose, she concedes to Lomov's 
persistence and the play ends much to the 
confusion of Natalya 's father. 

The Proposal, along with the other one-acts 
will be presented at eight o'clock May 2 
and 3 in the Venango Christian High School 
Auditorium. 

Shilog Will Speak ] 

Dr. Allen Shilog, fellow of the American 
Anthropological Association and associate 
professor of the grachiate school of public 
health. University of Pittsburgh, will speak 
on "Culture and Health in Nigeria" at 10 
a.m. in the Chapel on Wednesday, on "Ur- 
banization in the Middle East" at 12 noon 
in Peirce Auditorium, on "Population Con- 
trol" at 3 p.m. in Room 251 administration 
building, and will hold a discussion at 4 p.m. 
in room 254 administration building. 

Dr. Shilog is being sponsored by the Am- 
erican Anthropological Association and the 
National Scien(?e Foundation.

ON STUDENT GOVERNMENT 



Resolutions Passed at Confab; 

PSASG Accomplished Some Coach Joy Resigns; 

Positive Results on Problems Record is 422-209 



THE SPORTS SCENE 



By DICK MEARS 

Editor's Note: The following proposals 
may seem new, perliaps even pioneering. 
But all indications lead to the fact that 
Pennsylvania State colleges are behind in 
these areas. The State colleges could have 
employed some of these proposals several 
years ago. The PSASG in passing these re- 
solutions has accomplished some positive 
results on the problems that are facing, 
have faced, and will face Pennsylvania's 
13 state colleges and Indiana University. 

Resolutions By PSASG 
Have Far-Reaching Effects 

The resolutions passed at the convention 
of the Pennsylvaaia State Association of Stu- 
dent Governments held at Clarion last Friday 
and Saturday were significant not only as 
immediate proposals, but also as indicators 
of the changes to take place in the future 
on the campuses of Pennsylvania's state col- 
leges and Indiana University. 

Discrimination Lessened In The Future 

Discriminatory practices used by the State 
colleges may be lessened considerably by 
a proposal of the committee on student in- 
volvement in campus policy-making "that 
PSASG go on record as recommending that 
member colleges begin extension and inten- 
sification of student recruiting programs in 
those high schools with high percentages of 
culturally disadvantaged students." The De- 
partment of Health, Education and Welfare 
in its study reported that Pennsylvania is 
one of four states that highly discriminates 
against Negroes who apply to State colleges 
excepting Cheyney where Negro enrollment 
is quite high. 

It was reported that racial problems exist 
at Shippensburg State Ccrilege where Negro 
students are discriminated against. Dining 
hall workers there ignore Negro students 
when they go to eat their meals and are 
usually served, if served at all, last. At the 
time of Dr. Martin Luther King's assassina- 
tion, Negro students planned to parade dowa- 
town Shippensburg but were halted by the 
presence of armed white men on the roofs 
of buildings. The town of Shippensburg, it 
was reported, was highly prejudiced. 

Delegates from Califoraia State College re- 
ported that academic standards were to be 
lowered there in order to enroll 600 Negro 
students. Twenty Negro professors are also 
to be hired. The California students feel that 
it is not necessary to lower the standards 
for the sole purpose of acquiring Negro stu- 
dents. White students could also take ad- 
vantage of the lower academic requirements 
and it was feared that a diploma from Cali- 
fornia in the future would be more equivalent 
to a high school diploma rather than a college 
diploma. 

Clarion was also discussed among the state 
colleges that practices discrimination. It was 
believed that the interview with admissions 
officers at Clarion before a student is enrolled 
was indeed a feasible way to keep the en- 
rollment of Negro students to a minimum. 
Although the application for enrollment to 
Clarion has nothing on it to indicate race 
or color, the admissions office has in its 
hand the power to discriminate through the 
personal interview. In the future Clarion may 
be forced to either eliminate the interview 
or do as Indiana University does. Indiana 
has an inerview but it is held only after 
the ' student is accepted and at that time 
the student may talk with the admissions 
officers as well as his advisor. 

College Senate Supported 

Another resolution passed by PSASG "re- 
commends the formation of a college senate 
consisting of administrators, faculty, and stu- 
dents with equal representation." This senate 
would do away with the faculty senate and 
the student senate as they are now structur- 
ed. One senate would be substituted for two 
with the combination set up as a means to 
have students represented in the campus poli- 
cy making usually dealth with by the admin- 
is-tration and faculty. Things which deal sole- 
ly with the students, such as social activities, 
will still be handled by the student repre- 
presentatives and those things which concern 
only the faculty will be handled by the fa- 
culty. Clarion may now be planning to make 
this resolution a reaUty on this campus. 

Open Housing Favored 

PSASG unanimously passed a resolutimi 
supporting open housing for all students who 
are 21 years of age or have completed two 
semesters of college work. A standing com- 
mittee was also recommended to be esta- 
blished at each college in order to study 
and help solve the problems of students liv- 
ing off campus. The purpose of the resolution 
was to give more freedom to those students 
who wanted to live off campus. It was gen-

erally felt that this proposal would not pro- 
vide a means to close dormitory halls since 
most of the college towns do not have suf- 
ficient room to house all the students. 

Uniform Policies Possible 

PSASG passed a bill that grants each State 
college the right to have any privilege or 
policy that has been established at any other 
Pennsylvania State college or university. By 
comparing policies of one school with those 
of another, the colleges may be able to be- 
come more uniform in their policies and will 
provide equal opportunities for all students 
attending state owned-and-operated colleges. 

Apathy Diagnosed 

Apathy, a fatal and evidently communica- 
ble disease commonly spread on State col- 
lege campuses, was diagnosed by one dis- 
cussion group. With the committee's recom- 
mendatioils, PSASG accepted three resolu- 
tions to help confine or quarantine the dis- 
ease of apathyitis. 

First, the student governments of member 
schools are to solicit participation of the stu- 
dent body on standing committees. When stu- 
dents are actively working on the commit- 
tees they become more aware of existing 
campus problems and may become interested 
enough to do something about them. This pro- 
posal also eliminates student senate members 
from becoming a member of three or four 
committees as is the current practice. 

Second, student governments are to "em- 
ploy appropriate and constructive means of 
communication such as informative rallies 
and student conclaves in those situations de- 
nrtfnding positive and immediate supportive 
action." 

Third, student leaders are to investigate, 
re-evaluate, and recommend necessary chan- 
ges in the area of public relations and com- 
munications. It is hoped that increased in- 
terest and student body participation will re- 
sult. 

In Loco-Who? 

Other resolutions passed by PSASG include 
one submitted by a Mansfield delegate to 
remove the college from the role of "in loco 
parentis" to a cooperative "in service facil- 
ity" role with their sole realm of authority 
to be academic in nature only. 

Since there are now no publications to print 
student opinions and commentary, PSASG 
has accepted to start a quarterly publication 
to be' known as the Journal of PSASG to print 
such commentary. East Stroudsburg agreed 
to edit the quarterly while Kutztown agreed 
to print the publication. 

Scholarships Not Favored 

Among the resolutions passed was one that 
was defeated concerning scholarships. The 
resolution as written was in favor of contin- 
uing the Pennsylvania Higher Education As- 
sistance Agency scholarships which are pre- 
sently under attack by Pennsylvania legisla- 
tors. The legislators plan to take the PHEAA 
scholarship money and place it in one large 
loan fund from which and student could bor- 
row money to be paid back at reasonable 
interest rates. 

The proposal was poorly written and in 
referring to the proposal one delegate from 
West Chester said there was insufficient in- 
formation to sustain judgment on it. He said, 
"This is a tremendous puU of ignorance." 

By defeating this proposal, PSASG indi- 
cates that it is in favor of abolishing the 
PHEAA scholarships, although nothing will 
probably be done by PSASG toward this end. 

Bracken Bums, President of Indiana's Stu- 
dent Senate, spoke in opposition to the re- 
solution saying that anyone going to college 
should expect to earn from 10 to 15 to 25 
thousand dollars a year upon graduation and 
that the college student should not mind a 4 
to 6 thousand dollar debt incurred to attend 
college. 



John Joy, head basketball coach of the 
Golden Eagles, has resigned as coach, al- 
tiiough he will remain here as a teacher. 

Mr. Joy has been head coach at Oarion 
since 1961 where his teams have compiled a 
record of 76 victories and 80 defeats. 

Before coming to Clarion, Mr. Joy, a na- 
tive of Butler, has held high school coaching 
positions at Jeannette, Har-Brack, Springdale, 
Monaca, and MeadviUe. 

He had his greatest success at Meadville, 
where his teams had a 13-year record of 
222-82. His career record is 422-209. 

Lignelli Elected 
Conference Prexy 
For 2' Year Term 

Frank Lignelli, Clairion Staite's athletic 
director, has been elected president of the 
Pennsylvania Conference for a two-year term, 
which will begin this fall and extend to the 
end of the 1970-71 term. 

Mr. Lignelh is also a Clarion graduate. 
From 1946 to 1950 he earned 12 letters in 
sports; he participated in football and base- 
ball, as well as wrestling, where he was a 
runner-up in the 175 lb. class in the confer- 
ence wrestling championships. 

Before he became athletic director three 
years ago, he had coached wrestling for 
seven years. His 1965 Golden Eagle squad 
earned the championship of the conference; 
he also developed four individual conference 
titlists. He has also been an assistant foot- 
ball coach for 12 years. 

Elected to serve with Mr. Lignelli at the 
recent bi-annual meeting of the conference 
in Harrisburg were Russell Houk, Blooms- 
burg, vice-president; Al Hall, Edinboro, trea- 
asurer; and Dr. Bradley Keith, Slippery Rock, 
secretary. 

Mr. Lignelli said that during his two-year 
term he would "strive to make our conference 
one of the best in the state and try to live 
up to the name and reputation we have 
had." 



The success of these resolutions as passed 
by PSASG will only be important if mem- 
ber colleges use them effectively on campus. 
Their aims are to help the student while 
giving the student a chance to help himself 
as well as his college. 

Dr. Murphy Speaks 

A banquet was held Friday in Chandler 
Dining Hall for the PSASG convention. Dr. 
Raymond Murphy, dean of academic affairs 
at Penn State University, was guest speaker. 
Dr. Murphy said that student leaders had 
the best opportunity on the college campus 
to display their concepts. 

Referring to the choosing of student lead- 
ers, Dr. Murphy said, "Many are called but 
few are chosen. When the pigeons fly over, 
only a few are chosen." 

He defined the term, creative leadership, 
as leadership that recognizes the real issues 
that face students. He stressed the fact that 
students should not squabble over petty pro- 
blems such as women's hours and dining 
hall food, but should be interested in the 
long range problem of getting a good educa- 
tion. 

Dr. Murphy feels that students should di- 
vest the jargon of the day. He says terms 
such as "Do your own thing" and "turn you 
off and turn you on" should be substituted 
with better quality communications. 

Standing Ovation For Still 

Dr. Dana Still, assistant dean of academic 
affairs at Clarion, was given a standing ova- 
tion for the speech he delivered Saturday 
night at the PSASG buffet dinner.

Quadrangular Match 
Opens Golf Season 

Clarion State College golfers opened their 
season Wednesday at Pine Crest Country 
Club, Brookville, in a quadrangular match 
hosting Edinboro, Indiana University of Penn- 
sylvania and Thiel College. 

In assessing his linksmen, veteran Clarion 
golf coach, Tom Carnahan, isaid: 

"The loss of last year's captain. Bill May, 
will hurt, but the squad stacks up strongly 
as a whole." 

Returning this year are juniors Alan Wein- 
gartner, Ed Malek, Norm Jula, and sopho- 
mores John Hafera, Chris Tyner, Mark Sil- 
vis, and Harold Zuber. 

John Schmidt, Bethel Park junior transfer 
from Allegheny County Community College, 
is expected to bolster the ranks. 

Four lads from the Clarion campus and 
four from Venango campus look good as 
freshman team prospects. 

At Clarion are Jim Lewis, Pat Mailey, 
David Bendl, and Paul Smith. 

At Venango campus are Chris Kistler, Ron 
Lucas, Tom Pfeifer, and John Shaffer. 

Kiebl Dives 
To 2nd Place 

Clarion State freshman Pat Kiehl placed 
second in the three meter diving competi- 
tion at the Eastern Seaboard AAU Cham- 
pionships held March 29 at Gaithersburg, Md. 

Entrants in the tourney competed in age 
brackets 11-12, 13-14, 15-17 and open. They 
represented the best diving talent in an area 
encompassing New England, New York, 
Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Dela- 
ware, Virginia, West Virginia, Tennessee, 
North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia. 

Although a definite date has not yet been 
set, the Eastern Seaboard Tournament will 
be held next year in Clarion State Nata- 
torium. 



Doug Niebel 
Places Sixth 

By ROD LITZ 

Doug Niebel brought national recognition 
to Clarion State in the recent NCAA national 
wrestling tournament at Brigham Young Uni- 
versity by placing sixth out of 47 wrestlers in 
the 160 pound weight class. He is the first 
national place winner in the history of Clarion 
State. 

In the preliminaries, Doug decisioned Dave 
Pollard from California Polytech with a 
12-2 score. He then lost to Cleo McGlory 
by the same score, 12-2. In his next bout, 
with Jim Guyer of North Iowa, Doug decision- 
ed him 9-6; he also decisioned Joe Wells, 
University of Iowa, in a close 6-5 win. 

In his final match, Doug faced a tough 
opponent, Gary Rushing, who came into the 
national with a record of 23-0-0. Following a 
quick takedown and predicament by Ruslung, 
Doug reversed for two points. In the third 
period with 12 seconds left, the score stood 




DOUG NIEBEL 

6-5 in favor of Rushing. Doug scored a takC' 
down for two. With four seconds left, Rushing 
escaped and tied the score. Doug lost on 
riding time, however, and Rushing went on 
to take third place. 

Randy Stine also helped Clarion place in 
the top 35 out of 105 colleges and univer- 
sities with a win over Glen Takahashi, Brig- 
ham Young, by a 5-2 decision, before losing 
to Dom Cusimano of California, 6-3.

orial Stadium, with three of the Golden 
Eagles capturing two first places apiece. 

Sophomore Jesse Jones came on strong 
and fast in his first varsity outing to win the 
100 and 220-yard dash events. Another sopho- 
more, John Ruane, notched two first place

Double Header Slated Tomorrow; 
Coach Knowles Confident of Team 



Baseball Cloach Joe Knowles, despite a 13 
inning, 7-5 loss to Youngstown State in his 
first outing last Monday, feels his Golden 
Eagles are strong and equal to the task 
in taking on Geneva College tomorrow at 
Memorial Stadium. 

Dan Fraiser's Golden Tornadoes are 0-3 
and do not pose the threat of Dom Roselli's 
Youngstown squad. 

Cal MartinelU and Bill Abbott are the pro- 
bable starting battery for the first game of 
the double header, slated to start at 1 p.m. 



Chuck Christ and Ellwood Dressier will start

TRANK COLEMAN, GUEST STAR 

'Carnival' Opens Wed,; 
Kathy Barron Plays Lili 



The Clarion State College Dramatics De- 
partment will present the musical Carnival, 
under direction of Dr. Mary Hardwick, on 
April 30, May 1, 2, and 3, in Tippin Gymna- 
sium. At 8:30 the curtain will rise on a pro- 
duction with a New York guest star, Frank 
Coleman. 

Carnival is the story of Lili (Kathy Barron), 
an orphan, who comes to Mr. Schlegel's (John 
Dorish) carnival looking for a job. Lili has all 
the little-girl dreams and fantasies. Thus .she 
easily falls in love with Marco the Magnifi- 
cent (John Solomon), much to the disliking of 
The Incomparable Rosalie (Roseann Zarem- 
ba), his partner and mistress, who finally 
convinces him to leave the carnival. 

Finding a job with the crippled puppeteer, 
Paul (Frank Coleman), and his partner, Jac- 
quot (George Hall), Lili begins work with the 
four puppets (the voices of Frank Coleman 
and Steve Brezzo) that she believes are alive. 
Paul is a bitter young man and can find noth- 
ing worthwhile in life until he finds Lili. He 
makes Lili realize that life is not all make- 
believe, but Lili also shows Paul how won- 
derful real life can be. 

Starring in the role of Paul, the crippled 
puppeteer, is Frank Coleman, who has just 
finished a successful run in New York as the 
Italian peddler, Bartolomeo Vanzetti, in Sac- 
co-Vanzetti. Among Mr. Coleman's credits are 
El Gallo in The Fantastkks, Paul in Barefoot 
in the Park, Cass in Any Wednesday, Capt. 
von Trapp in The Sound of Music, Arthur in 
Camelot, and many more. 

Understudy to the role of Paul is Bill Dem- 
ma, a familiar figure on Clarion's stage, seen 
recently as Arthur in the production, Ah, 
Wilderness! The roles of Matt in The Fantas- 
ticks, Orlando in As You Like It, and several 
studio productions, including Endgame and 
Death of Bessie Smith, are some of Bill's 
credits. 

Kathy Barron, as Lili, is the innocent, 
young girl who joins the traveling carnival 
and believes in its world of magic and make- 
believe. Last year Kathy was Sister Sophia in 
The Sound of Music and has been seen in 




KATHY BARRON 

several studio productions, including TTie 
Leader and Bury the Dead. 

Starring as Marco, the .suave and polished 
magician, is John Solomon, remembered for 
his role as Quentin in After the Fall. Roseann 
Zaremba, who was Essie Miller in the recent 
production of Ah, Wilderness!, is Marco's 
brassy partner. Paul's partner, amiable Jac- 
quot, is played by George Hall, a change 
from his character as the chorus leader in 
Bicdermann. 

Other charactei s include Princess Olga, the 
snake dancer (Cookie Smith); the Siamese 
twins, Gladys and Gloria Zurwicki (Bobbie 
Egidi and J. B. Anderson); Mr. Grobert, sou- 
venir vender (Herb Michaels); and the carni- 
val roustabouts (Bill Demma, Ron Reed, Wil- 
lie Sanders, Paul Gaffney and Bob Heimann). 
Of course, the show has all the other people 
of the carnival: jugglers, strong men, balloon 
men, stilt walkers, dancing bears, tumblers, 
and four wonderfully alive puppets. 

The set is designed by Dr. Adam Weiss; the 
music direction is by Mr. Edward Roncor.e; 
and the choreographer is Mrs. Lee Miller. 

Theatre passes may be exchanged for tic- 
kets from 11-1 in the dining hall and 1-4 in 
the Chapel. 



Thursday's Spring Concert 
Wa» 'Stirring', Lazich 
Reveals Talent, Ability 



By ROBERT VAN METER 

Professor of Music 

The Clarion State College Concert Choir 
presented its annual spring concert Thursday 
evening, April 17, at the Clarion Area High 
School auditorium. 

Normally conducted by William McDonald, 
associate professor of music, the choir Thurs- 
day evening was under the direction of Milu- 
tin Lazich, instructor of voice, who is direct- 
ing the choir during the absence of Mr. Mc- 
Donald, currently on sabbatical leave. 

The choir was assisted by Dr. Bong Hi 
Kim, piano; Deborah Baird, soprano; Mar- 
garet Black, alto; Christopher Daniels, tenor; 
and Larry Landis, bass. 

Mr. Lazich proved himself to be a conduc- 
tor of outstanding talent and ability. The 
choir and soloists, under his direction, gave 
a stirring performance of the Coronation 
Mass of W. A. Mozart, and were exceptionally 
responsive to the dramatic and expressive 
requirements of this mature and masterful 
work. Mr. Lazich conducted with assurance 
and authority, building the choir's perfor- 
mance with insight and command of architec- 
tual proportion and expressive detail. 



The singing of both choir and soloists was 
characterized throughout by vocal purity of 
tone, precise intonation and diction, and con- 
trolled contrast of color and dynamics. The 
sensitive, spirited, and highly skilled playing 
of Dr. Bong Hi Kim, choir accompanist, con- 
tributed much to this eminently successful 
performance. 

A pleasing variety of music was provided 
by the imaginative programming of the se- 
cond half of the concert. Included were the 
Hallelujah chorus from the "Mount of Olives" 
by Beethoven; Come, Let Us Sing from the 
"Ninety-fifth Psalm" by Mendelssohn, with 
Miss Mary Jane Kirby as soloist; How Lovely 
is Thy Dwelling Place, from the "German 
Requiem" by Brahms; the chorus to spring, 
from "Cavalleria Rusticana" by Mascagni; 
and Speed Your Journey from the opera "Na- 
bucco" by Verdi. 

In addition to the exciting rhythmic drive 
and sheer choral brilliance which was evi- 
dent throughout the last half of the program, 
the choir, under Mr. Lazich's direction, re- 
vealed a striking sense of the appropriate 
shaping of line and phrase, and of the accum- 
ulation and release of tension. 

The concert was enthusiastically received. 



Diane Neal Is Newly Crowned 
Miss Northwestern Pennsylvania 



Diane Neal, Clarion, won the title of Miss 
Northwestern Pennsylvania on March 29. She 
represented Alpha Psi Omega at the pageant 
in Brookville. 

Miss Neal and three other CSC students 
Linn McGahan, Linda Zeigler, and Veronica 
Smith, competed against nine other girls from 
this part of the state. Diane walked away 
with the crown, a $500 scholarship, and two 
$25 gift certificates from stores in Brookville. 
This is the second straight year that a Clarion 
coed has captured the title; last year Kathy 
Sepos reigned as Miss Northwestern Penn- 
sylvania and Laurel Festival Queen. 

Diane now has the opportunity to compete 
in the Miss Pennsylvania Pageant in Her- 
shey this June. She and her chaperone and 
constant companion during their stay, Mrs. 
Doverspike of Brookville, will spend five days 
in the homes of Hershey residents while the 
pageant is being held. The winner of this 
contest then proceeds to the Miss America 
Pageant in Atlantic City. 

Last semester Miss Neal attended the State 
University College in Geoesco, New York, 



where she was active in the Genesco Players 
and accompanied them on several road shows.

Roncone Plans Faculty Senate Proposal 
'Carnival' Music Is Introduced, Reviewed 



Edward Roncone, musical director of Car- 
nival, has prepared all music for the princi- 
pals and chorus and has also worked with 
the orchestra. 

Pianists for the show are Annette Roussel- 
Pesche and Lowell Hepler. The faculty and 
students involved in the Carnival orchestra 
include Lynn Mason, violin; James Baldwin,

clarinet; Ken Show, clarinet; Cathy Laube, 
clarinet; Darryl Gurgiolo, clarinet; Ron Deh- 
ner, trumpet; Claus Oglesby, trumpet; and

Clarion Will Host 



The Dean's Academic Council, Student Sen 
ate, and Faculty Senate met at 3 p.m. in 
the chapel on Monday to review the new 
proposal by the president's committee on the 
Faculty Senate. 

President Gemmell opened the session by 
giving some background i.nformation on the 
present Faculty Senate and its inadequacy 
to current needs. He also pointed out that 
the new proposal is being introduced so that 
the Senate will have the organization tools 
to "function maturely and professionally." 

The old system, according to the president, 
made it difficult to handle "problems that 
should have been done long ago." The new 
proposal aims to make the students and fa- 
culty more united and more powerful. 

A copy of the report was sent to each 
of the faculty members and student leaders 
b\ members of the committee. These mem- 
bers are R. Wallace Brewster, consultant; 
William A. McCauley, chairman; Margaret 
Buckwalter, Forest Carter, James Cole, Dan- 
iel Shirey, and Adam Weiss. 

The proposal also departs from the admin- 
istration's present policy of holding check 
reigns by approving appointments to faculty 



committees. The faculty, in other words, 
may, through the new proposal, be able to 
stand on its own feet to maintain its pro- 
fessional dignity. 

New steps are included in the proposal 
to take students into consultation on courses 
and programs of study and on student affairs; 
student participation on these committees is 
designed to involve students in making im- 
portant decisions as well as making the stu- 
dents' role more useful on the Clarion cam- 
pus. 

The proposal is designed to make the Facu- 
lty Senate a more unified body that will 
Carry out faculty interests. In addition, ft 
mandates periods of discussion for makii^ 
amendments and for voting to insure prompt 
action on changes. 

The president's committee also answered 
questions on the 13-page proposal at the meet- 
ing. 

Other meetings were also held on Tuesday, 
Wednesday, and Thursday afternoons for all 
faculty members (divided alphabetically), so 
that each member could be adequately in- 
formed about the new proposal. Questions 
were also answered at these meetings. 



Greek Sing

nity and the Alpha Sigma Tau sorority. This 
evening's program consists of spirituals, love 
ballads, folk, patriotic songs and more. 

Saturday evening the annual Spring for- 
mal will be held in Chandler Dining Hall. 
The music will be provided by the "Supremo

CEC Students 
Visit Denver 



Eight student members of the local council 
aiid three special education faculty members 
from ClarKU attended the 49th Annual Na- 
tional Convention of the Council for Excep- 
tional Children April 9-13 at Denver, Colo. 

Two members of the campus student organ- 
ization, Russ Benson and William Zeuer, were 
candidates for the national offices of presi- 
dent and vice president in the Student CouncU 
for Exceptional Children. 

Dr. Roy H. Schreffler, associate professor 
of special education and faculty advisor to 
the Clarion CEC, presented a research paper 
on the beneficial long-term effects of person- 
ality, school marks and achievement of par- 
ticipation in special classes for the gifted. 

Classes studied were started in Sharon in 
1959, when Dr. Schreffler was school psycho- 
logist and supervisor of special education 
in the schools of that city. 

Funds were raised through various chapter 
activities to pay transportation costs of five 
of the delegates. Costs for the chapter pre- 
sident, Marge McHenry, were paid by a grant 
supporting Clarion's Mental Retardation pro- 
gram. 

Members attending from the campus stu- 
dent organisation were: RusseU Benson, Ri- 
chard DeRiso, Karen King, Margie McHenry, 
Mary Lou Nowacki, Vincent Rooney, Carol 
Snyder, and Sandra Vettorel.

Symphony Orchestra Serves Rare Musical Feast; 
Listeners Receive Rewarding Aesthetic Experience 



By ANNETTE ROUSSEL PESCHE 

True to the old saw "History repeats itself" 
the aarion State College Symphony Orches- 
tra which, last September, started its season 
in a blaze of glory by triumphing, at its 
opening concert, through an outstanding paj-- 
formance, over the handicaps of a torrential 
rainstorm outdoors and distressing acoustics 
indoors, ended its season on Wednesday eve- 
ning, in the same blaze of glory and despite 
the same set of obstacles. 

Those hardy souls who braved the elements 
were rewarded by a rare musical feast, ser- 
ved to perfection by the student and com- 
munity orchestra musicians, the solo artists, 
and the conductor and symphony founder, 
Edward Roncone. 

The first half of the concert presented con- 
certos played by tliree faculty members 
whose exciting musical gifts and outstand- 
ing professional qualities resulted in a series 
of unusually rewarding aesthetic experiences 
for the enthusiastic listeners. Particularly ap- 
propriate to the present vernal season was 
the baroque work chosen by violinist, David 
Mallory, "Spring" Op. 8, No. 1 from "The 
Four Seasons" written by Vivaldi for solo 
violin and string orchestra. 

Bright, fuU of life, it was a perfect curtain- 
raiser. The varying moods of the three short 
movements were etched with elegance, tech- 
nical mastery, perfect intonation and a fine 
incisive, yet round tone by Mr. Mallory. Solo- 
ist and orchestra provided an excellent inter- 
play of sound from the dazzling technical fig- 
ures of the allegro, through the lovely soto vio- 
lin singing and murmuring, veiled accompani- 
ment of the largo, to the lilting strains of 
the Danza Pastorale. Commendation for inci- 
dental solo passages expertly played, in this 
work, are violinist, Lynn Mason and celliat, 
Vahe Berberian. 

The second soloist. Burton Hardin, homist, 
played the Allegro Maestoso movement of 
Mozart's Second Concerto for French Horn. 
Written by the composer for a dear friend, 
it reflects a certain warmth and affection 



which enhance the pure classic lines of this 
musical gem. From the first notes of orches- 
tral introduction, the sparkling magic of Mo- 
zart glowed like an invitation to a sharing 
.flf beauty that was immediately accepted by 
the horn. Then ensued a succession of tender, 
&)wing melodies admirably set forth and car- 
fessed by the soloist's artistry and embellished 
by the orchestra's arabesques. 

Not only does Mr. Hardin project the lovely, 
mellow tone for which the French horn is 
famous, but he has also achieved an amaz- 
ingly flexible technique on this instrument 
which is equally famous for its unpredictable 
capriciousness. 

The final .soloist of the evening was the 
admirable pianist. Bong Hi Kim, whose dy- 
namic interpretation of Chopin's Piano Con- 
certo No. 1 in Eb major was a real "tour 
de force." It is always a surprise and a 
delight to watch this tiny lady seat herself 
at the keyboard and bring forth the tone 
and technical accomplishment of a giantess. 

Ably seconded by the conductor and orches- 
tra. Dr. Kim set forth, in stunning fashion, 
the exquisite melodies, poetic lyricism, bit- 
ter-sweet nostalgia, pristine hope, brooding 
despair, all the essence of romanticism so 
characteristic of Chopin. After the lengthy, 
atmospheric orchestral introduction, the elec- 
trifying quality of the opening piano attack 
created a mood of ardent excitement which, 
With flying fingers, sensitive phrasing, sing- 
ing tone and sheer pianistic know-how, the 
soloist imflaggingly sustained throughout. In 
the lyric passages, the evanescent quality 
profited from the shimmering luminosity of 
Linda Harriger's flute 

During the entire first part of the pro- 
gram, particular praise must go to Mr. Ron- 
cone and the orchestra for their excellent 
work as accompanists. This is an art in 
itself; it can make or break a soloist— so, 
an extra kudo for all concerned. 

The final portion of the concert was purely 
orchestral and filled with contrast. The Alle- 
gro con brio movement of Beethoven's third 
symphony, the "Eroica," revealed the sur- 



prisingly rapid progress made by the Clarion 
State College Symphony in the production 
of a rich, beautiful sound. 

With a fine feeling for musical line and 
phrase, a steady building towards cUmactic 
effect and a great unity of musical concept, 
Edward Roncone brought forth the best from 
each instrumental-choir. He resultantly fas- 
hioned a powerfufr yet tender exposition of 
the first movement of this monumental com- 
position. The woodwinds and horns were out- 
standing. 

As a change of category, the amusing 
"Ideas for Orchestra" by the young contem- 
porary, Ned Rorem, provided a light mo- 
ment. Unpretentious, witty, they were fun 
for players and listeners. Solos in "Three" 
by violin, viola, cello and oboe and by trum- 
pets in "Tuesday" were very well done. 

The concert closed with one of tlie most 
thrilling pieces in orchestra literature, Wag- 
ner's "Prelude to Die Meistersinger." This 
is a true virtuoso piece and was well served 
in a vibrantly paced performance. Particular- 
ly impressive was the precise counterpoint 
of the fugal section, the brilliance of Mr. Boh- 
len's clarinet and Dr. Abel's oboe, the dark 
tone of the celli, the entire brass choir, the 
tuba solo well played by Ron Allaman and 
the over-all, stirring projection of this joyous 
work. 

Bravo, bravissimo to everyone responsible 
for the highly successful presentation of a 
wonderful evening of music — and a big kiss 
to the enthusiastic, appreciative, all-impor- 
tant audience, without whom no concert 
would be possible.

Editorially 
Speaking 



Gemmell Praised for Initiative 

In Advocating Student Involvement 



Clarion's present growth is mak- 
ing demands on the college to revise 
many of its internal processes that are 
becoming outdated at an alarming rate. 
Fortunately, however, we have a presi- 
dent with enough foresight and initia- 
tive to do something about many of the 
problems we are now facing, and also 
about some of the problems that will 
face us in the future.' ^ 

President Gemmell is an idea man; 
he is a president who familiarizes him- 
self with current happenings in edu- 
cation. But even, more significant is 
the fact that he is not afraid of change. 
In fact, one of President Gemmell's 
primary attributes is his willingness to 
revise outdated procedures and his ap- 
parent desire to progress with the 
times. 

One good example of the presi- 
dent's attitude was his introductory ad- 
dress at Monday's informational meet- 
ing to review his committee's proposal 
on the Faculty Senate. He stated that 
we are striving for "improved quality" 
in our standard organizational patterns; 
he stressed "improving on what we al- 
ready have." He also pointed out the 
need to change the trends of the "long 
standing neglect in higher education." 

At another time during this same 
meeting, one faculty member expressed 
concern over the possibility of one par- 
ticular department gaining control of 
the Faculty Senate by the rleM/'thanges 
in the voting procedures that are- pro- 
posed in the report. President Gem- 
mell disagreed with the professor's 
viewpoint because he^does not approve 
of the current thinkiiig in terms of de- 
partments and divisions by some of 
Clarion's faculty members. "This is 
what 1 want to do awa^ with," he blunt- 
ly stated. "We desperately need to 



improve on this fragmented view of 
education and look at it as a whole." 

Another of President Gemmell's 
new plans includes more student in- 
volvement and participation in decision 
making. Several new presidential com- 
mittees have been set up which include 
student membership. Among these are: 
Committee on Revision of the Student 
Constitution; Student-Faculty Commit- 
tee on Disciplinary Procedures for Stu- 
dents; Committee on Faculty Senate 
Reorganization (student consultants will 
be selected next year); and Committee 
on College Rules and Regulations for 
Students (student members will be se- 
lected next year). 

For several semesters students 
have expressed a concern and a willing- 
ness to be more involved in their col- 
lege. These new committees are the 
first steps to involve students in aca- 
demic and organizational affairs. The 
president pointed out that "care must 
be taken" at first to insure the best re-' 
Suits from these beginning steps. 

This new trend of student involve- 
ment may progress slowly at first, but 
students should realize that new op- 
portunities are being opened to them, 
and that these opportunities are a start 
pn what may prove to be valuable for 
many future years. 

Students want to be involved; they 
want to be accepted as mature inHivi. 
duals. These new opportunities may 
give students a chance to prove their 
worth. 

The students of this college should 
appreciate the interest that President 
Gemmell is showing in them. It is 
hoped that he will continue to show 
this interest by opening even more 
doors to them as soon as possible. 

It is our belief that he will.

Inter preting Is Function of Editorials; 
Call Welcomes Varied Comments 



Newspapers perform many func- 
tions. The obvious, of course, are to 
inform and entertain, but the interpre- 
ting of news is also an important func- 
tion of any paper (commercial or col- 
legiate). This interpreting of the news 
shows up primarily on the editorial 
page through the presentation of vari- 
ous opinions by the editorial staff and 
others. 

The Clarion Call throughout the 
year has attempted to comment on is- 
sues that we have felt important to the 
students and faculty of Clarion. We 
realize that others may not agree with 
the stands we have taken, but the op- 
portunities for others to comment have 
been available. We have also attemp- 
ted to present as many and as varied 
opinions as possible. Last week's edi- 
torial page, for example, presented 
three different opinions on three dif- 
ferent but related topics, and two of 
these were written by people not on 
the Call staff. 

The editorial by Sherry Lehman, 
a member of the Call editorial staff, 
commented on the stagnation of educa- 
tion caused by professors who "drone 
on" in class and who obviously lack all 
"ingenuity in courses, originality in lec- 
tures." Miss Lehman comments that 
this lack of ingenuity in courses could 
be the reason behind bored apathetic 
students. 

Leslie Hudak, student .senator, 
wrote a guest editorial calling for stu- 
dents "to get moving to bigger and 
better things for our campus", Corp- 
plaining, as Miss Hudak suggests, is 
not the solution but rather wonting as 
a group coMld be the desired solution 
to the apathy on campus. 

The other guest editorial was writ- 
teu by Gwendolyn M. Bays, professor

Campus Kaleidoscope 



By SHERRY LEHMAN 




The Student Senate of Edinboro State Col- 
lege passed a |)olicy of unlimited course cuts 
by a unanimous vote last week. 

The policy reads as follows: "That the 
present attendance policy be abolished. Re- 
gular attendance is expected of all students. 
A student will not be corvsidered for exclusion 
from a course, nor shall the student's final 
grade be lowered merely on the grounds 
of his attendance record. However, all stu- 
dents are cautioned to realize that they may 
be held responsible for material covered or 
evaluation administered in their absence." 
The policy will become official after approval 
oi the Edinboro Board of Trustees, and if 
passed, will go into effect for the summer 
session. 

Gettysburg College, along with four other 
colleges in the central Pennsylvania area, 
is a member of the consortium sponsoring 
a summer transition program for differently 
prepared students. This effort is an attempt 
to prepare students for college who have 
not been trained adequately for successful 
college performance. The five participating 
colleges are: Bucknell, Dickinson, Gettys- 
burg, Franklin and Marshall and Wilson. 

The member colleges have been recruiting 
students whose educational backgrounds 
would put them in the "high risk category" 
for success in college. Basic skills such as 
reading, mathematics, communication, and 
study skills will supplement the student's edu- 



cation, in order to make him more accus- 
tomed to the sort of life he will encounter 
at college. The course is not required of 
students in this category who have accep- 
tances to a college, but it is highly recom- 
mended as valuable preparation. 

April 14 was a unique day at Shippensburg 
State College. A moratorium was held that 
day, with over 1,000 students, faculty, and 
administrators taking part. It was a day 
of workshops, debates "on campus problems 
and issues, airing of complaints, and free 
communication among everyone involved. 
The ideals and goals of the moratorium as 
a whole were recorded in a 24-page directory. 

The Shippensburg Slate stated "The earlier 
pessimism of . . . colleagues and workers tur- 
ned into an unexpressible feeling; the image 
of self-determination became a reality. The 
students, faculty, and administration took the 
initial step into a meaningful and productive 
future for SSC." The paper devoted two full 
pages to the reporting of debates, discus- 
sions, and evaluations of the various meetings 
of the moratorium. Among subjects discussed 
were the student Bill of Rights, student go- 
vernment, course offerings, student-faculty 
relations, academic standards, and curricul- 
um changes. The moratorium was an amaz- 
ing success, a "sell-out event" in which the 
participants were truly interested and active- 
ly involved. 



Letters to The Editor 



Shiloh Speaks on Rapid Urbanization 
And Increased Population in Mid East 



of French. Dr. Bays commented on an 
essay written by Bergen Evans, profes- 
sor of English at Northwestern Uni- 
versity, which appeared in This Week 
magazine. Dr. Bays feels that much 
of the students' fatigue is due not to 
overwork but to a lack of organization 
of study time. She further commented 
that many students who attend college 
do not belong there and are unhappy 
with the entire learning situation which 
can also produce fatigue. 

Those who read the above-men- 
tioned editorials and other editorials 
published in the Call probably did not 
agree with all the ideas or the solutions 
presented within them. But the edi- 
torials were written with the intention 
of presenting only one side of the is- 
sue. We, as do those who wrote the 
editorials, realize that there are other 
positions (equally as important) on 
these and other issues and that the so- 
Ilitions are not always the best nor al- 
\^fays workable, but they are solutions 
' with some degree of feasibility. 

We do not profess to "have all the 
answers," nor do we always present 
the most logical of solutions. But we 
(io profess to present as many and as 
varied opinions as is possible in our 
limited amount of space. 

It is not easy to write an editorial. 
It does take "something" to take a 
stand on an issue, especially when the 
writer may be the only one who be- 
lieves firmly in the stand. But the 
very fact an editor or a student-reader 
can comment on an issue or state an 
CTJinion is the important thing. We of 
■^tfie Call staff welcome comments so 
that we can continue to publish as 
many and as varied opinions as pos- 
sible.

Day Studenta Hold Elections 

To the Editor: 

Do you register on blue cards? If .so you 
are a Day Student and you are automatically 
a member of the Day Students' Association. 
Your organization is holding nominations and 
elections for 1939-70 officers. Are you going 
to take part or are you going to sit back and 
let a few members carry the load? Student 
government is impossible without student 
support. Nominations for D. S. A. president, 
vice-president, secretary, and treasurer will 
be held May 5, 11 a.m. to 12 noon, in the 
Chapel. Elections will be held the following 
Monday morning in the Chapel from 9 a.m. 
to 12 noon. 

Watch the Daily Bulletin for any further 
details.

Martha Reeves in the Hospital 

To the Editor: 

As chairman of the Social Committee, I 
feel that it is my responsibility to explain 
why Martha and the Vandellas will not be 
appearing at Clarion State. 

On Friday, April 18, we received a call 
from the agency through which we booked 
the Vandellas, stating that Martha Reeves 
yvas in the hospital and that it would be im- 
possible for her to appear this past Thursday, 
but the agent said she would appear here 
May 9, instead. 

The committee said that this would be fine, 
since at the time it was too late to get a 
decent group for Thursday night. Then on 
Monday, we received a call from the same 
agent who said that Martha and the Vandel- 
las wouldn't be on the road until June 1st. He 
said that in her place he would send Anthony 
and the Imperials on May 9, if we wanted 
them. 

We deeply regret that there could not be a 
cqnccrt for Spring Weekend, but the circum- 
stances were beyond our control. We hope 
that the substitution will be acceptable to the 
student body.

Faulty Reporting? 

Editor, The Call: 

Upon receiving a copy of the Clarion Call, 
1 noticed a few errors concerning Shippens- 
burg State College and its role at the PSASG 
convention that necessitate mention. 

It is true that Shippensburg, like most 
State colleges, harbors racial difficulties, but 
our problems were not accurately reported 
by the staff of your newspaper. Negro stu- 
dents at Shippensburg are not discriminated 
against in our dining halls, nor are they 
forced to eat their meals last. Our Negroes, 
like those in all State colleges, face the pro- 
blem of social shortcomings and prejudices 
that exist in the minds of too many Ameri- 
cans. Our main problem with the Negro stu- 
dent, however, is simply the insufficient num- 
ber of their race currently enrolled at our 
institution. The college's efforts are directed 
towards recruiting more blacks so they may 
become a stronger segment of our campus. 

Negro Students Not Involved 

Negro students were not involved in a plan- 
ned parade in honor of the late Dr. Martin 
Luther King, Jr. in the community of Ship- 
pensburg. It may be accurate to state that 
the town of Shippensburg has its prejucfices, 
but we, the students at Shippensburg, can only 
hope to improve this situation by exhibiting 
fair treatment to all people. 

The problem with many news reporting 
media is that bad news makes headlines 
or receives mention and then is over-drama- 
tized. What about the good articles? No men- 



tion was made concerning our moratorium, 
a plan established that halted all campus 
activities for a day and allowed for delibera- 
tions between students, faculty and adminis- 
tration. This highly successful venture al- 
lowed our students and administrators to get 
together in informal workshops and talk 
about our problems jointly. 

This idea was carried back to all the State 
colleges (including Clarion) and will probably 
come into light again in the near future. 
But no rtiention was made of our moratorium, 
thus eliminating a key idea brought forth 
at the convention by Shippensburg',, dele- 
gation. 

Representatives Did Not Leave Early 

Finally, it should be mentioned that the 
representatives from Shippensburg did not 
leave Clarion State College on Friday. We 
did, however, decide to vote by proxy and 
leave Saturday at noon because of our then 
forthcoming moratorium. 

I hope this material will clear up a few 
statements and better inform Clarion students 
of the activities at Shippensburg. 

CARL DEANER, Sophomore Senator, 
Shippensburg State College 

EDITOR'S REPLY 

The above letter was sent to the Call in 
care of Leslie Hudak, student senator. In 
last week's Call, Dick Mears, staff reporter, 
reported on the resolutions that were passed 
at the May 11 and 12 convention that was 
held here. 

While it may true that Negro students are 
not discriminated against at Shippensburg 
(and we hope it is), our reporter maintains 
that the information included in his account 
is accurately based on the information that 
the delegates from Shippensburg presented 
at the meetings. 

This information was presented in a small 
discussion session and not at the main dis- 
cussion meeting. For this reason. Mr. Deaner 
may not have been present when the subject 
of discrimination was brought up. 

It was impossible for one reporter to write 
up all the information from each of the State 
colleges that was presented at the convention. 
In addition, a space shortage in last week's 
Call made tight editing necessary. For this 
reason, the moratorium v/as not mentioned 
even though it probably should have been. 

Lastly, a misunderstanding caused the dele- 
gates to think that Shippensburg left on Fri- 
day evening. No ill intentions were involved 
in the mistake. 

It is unfortunate that these items have 
irritated Mr. Deaner. Nevertheless, it is our 
belief that the Call reporter was not guilty 
of poor reporting. His job was to report the 
news as he saw it. 

We have given him the benefit of the usual 
percentage of error that any reporter from 
any college paper deserves. We hope that 
Mr. Deaner and the delegates from Shippens- 
burg will give him the same courtesy.

By LARILYN ANDRE 

Dr. Ailon Shiloh, associate professor of an- 
thropology and public health at the Univer- 
sity of Pittsburgh, spent Wednesday of this 
week lecturing in various sociology and anth- 
ropology classes at C^SC. Basing his lectures 
on United Nations data and personal obser- 
vations, the main topics were rapid urban- 
ization and the increasing population in the 
Middle East— Egypt, Israel, Iran, Lebanon, 
Turkey, and Nigeria; all these countries are 
considered to be underdeveloped countries. 
Dr. Shiloh claims one characteristic of all 
underdeveloped countries is rapid, unplanned, 
uncontrolled urbanization. Some of the cau- 
ses of this world-wide phenomena are: mo- 
dern agricultural policies which make rural 
labor redundant. Thousands of illiterate,, un- 
trained peasants are thus displaced to urban 
areas annually. Today the peasants move 
to towns more readily than ever before due 
to the vast'improvements in roads and trans- 
portation. The discovery and exploitation of 
Oil draws workers to industrial centers. 

The greater part of this large-scale urban- 
ization profcess ha^ occurred in this genera- 
tion. This unplanned urbanization hais caused 
medieval walled towns to mushroom and ov- 
erflow their walls and overcome the sur- 
rounding areas. The majority of these imi- 
grants exist in shanty towns with no facili- 
ties for the disposal of sewage. 

In Baghdad about 250,000 people live in 
50,000 one-room sarifi (shanties). Such a con- 
centration of population creates health pro- 
blems due to insufficient supply of fresh wa- 
ter, spreading of communicable disease such 
as malaria, and the transfer of parasites 
from one person to another by contact and 
pools of water. The majority of the popula- 
tions of most Middle Eastern nations suffers 
from chronic mahiutrition, in addition to their 
other maladies. One third of the children 
bom in the Middle East die before they reach 
the age of five years. 

Mating and breeding are still possible even 
though one or both of the partners may suffer 
from any number of communicable diseases; 
therefore such conditions do not alter the 
rapid increase in the populations of these 
countries. 

This brings us to the second topic of Dr. 
Shiloh's lectures— population control. 

Homo sapiens took from the beginning of 
time until the last century to achieve a worid 
population of one million people. In only one 
hundred years the second million was creat- 
ed. In the following 30 years the third billion 



was born. And Dr. Shiloh predicted that it 
would take only seven years to achieve the 
fourth million inhabitants of this globe. 

The main problem of this populaton ex- 
plosion is the uneven distribution of food and 
people. The underdeveloped countries tend 
to have the highest breeding rate and the 
lowest rate of food production. Nearly 80 
percent of the world's population growth is 
concentrated in these countries. 

It took Europe 150 years to undergo the 
three stages to get from a high birth rate, 
high death rate to one of low birth rate, 
low death rate. India and other nations of 
the Middle East don't have 150 years tt 
spare; their problem must be solved now. 
Dr. Shiloh claims that unless a new "di- 
mension" is added to our present methods 
of ibrth ctintrol, it is doubtful that peaceful 
Dopulation control can succeed in these na- 
tions. 

Present birth control methods fail because 
of limited worldwide distribution; they are 
least found where most needed. Some of the 
factors impairing greater distribution are 
Federal indifference, "bureaucratic sloth," 
military needs and religious opposition. The 
KAP (knowledge alliteration practices) found 
that the peofrie ot the Middle East wanted 
birth control, but the national programs con- 
flicted with the economic programs and no 
progress was made. 

The government of India proposed several 
measures which were meant to reduce the 
population explosion, but were not successful 
in putting them into practice. A proposal 
to raise the. legal age of marriage for girls 
from 16 to 21 failed. A payment of 150 rupees 
($20) was to be paid any female who would 
allow herself to be sterilized and salary in- 
creases were promised males who would sub- 
mit to sterilization. Fifteen days off their 
prison sentences was promised prisoners who 
were vrilling to aid the government steriliza- 
tion plan. India is now considexing compul- 
sory sterilization for families with three chil- 
dren. 

Dr. Shildi postulates that there is no evi- 
dence that the population explosion is being 
slowed down. The possibility exists that cer- 
tain countries will, in the 1970's, experience 
widespread famines, riots, and political an- 
archy. 

Thus ended Dr. Shiloh's lectures: "The pop- 
ulation control of the underdeveloped coun- 
tries of the world is a very real problem for 
this generation. The challenge of this gen- 
eration is to try and get these programs 
(birth control) effected."

Simulated Community Aided Faculty Fliers Head New Program 

By Student Volunteers; 
Work Is Practical Activity 



By ANN ROHRBAUGH 

"People- to- people contact with the mentally 
retarded" is available to several volunteers 
who have been participating in a simulated 
community at Polk State School on Monday 
ev«dings this semester. The school, located 
10 miles west of Clarion past Franklin, is 
an institution for the mentally retarded .from 
central western Pennsylvania. The resments 
range from small children to elderly persons 
and their IQ's vary greatly. Three thousand 
people reside at Polk State School, but only 
six or seven hundred participate in the simu- 
lated community— the more able ones who 
might have some possibility of leaving, how- 
ever slight thase possibilities may be. 

Those who are well enough to take part 
in the community, axe divided into three 
IP^ups: the least able, the more able, and 
the most able. Before they visit the com- 
munity they are given a review lesson in 
reading signs which express prices in differ- 
ent manners such as one nickel, five cents, 
5c, or $.05. They practice counting money 
and receiving change before they leave the 
auditorium and go to the various stands which 
are set up in the gymnasium and in the hall- 
Mfays. 

Community Booths Organized 

The community consists of a variety ot 
booths where the people are able to spend 
t)ie token money they have earned by doing 
tasks such as making beds, dusting, and 
sweeping. The first stand that most visit 
in the bank where they cash their pay checks 
and receive token money— coins and bUls of 
paper which resemble actual money. With 
thdir money they are able to buy ice cream, 
coifee, juice, popcorn, and other snacks at 
the booths. A store sells magazines, neck- 
ties, note pads, greeting cards, powder, and 
small gifts which have been donated. Before 
they leave the store, the people must line up 
at a cash register for check-out, just as in 
ah actual store. Some prefer to play bingo 
qr beanbag toss, while others pay to enter 
a separate room where a dance is held. 

Volunteers Aid Employees 

The students from CSC who volunteer to 
help, work at the booths and assist the re- 
g^lar employees of the school, who work 
overtime to enable the residents to participate 
in the community program. They help the 
patients count their money and their change, 
and give them special rewards of extra to- 
kens if the residents do it correctly. This 
is a practical activity for those in the special 
education methods course and it offers these 
students an opportunity of interaction among 
tiie mentally retarded from adolescence to 
old age. After the evening activites are ended 
for the residents, the CSC students have an 
opportunity to discuss some of the situations 
t^y encountered with some of the regular 
Employees. 

As a semi-realistic program, the simulated 
community helps the residents learn various 
ast>ects of living in the outside world. Though 
ohly the most able people of the school at- 
tend the program, only about ten percent 
of them will ever be able to leave the insti- 
tution and work in the outside world. Some 
will never be able to leave Polk, but they 
are well enough to participate in the activity 
apd will benefit from it. 

Cottage Residences Set Up 

Polk State School is located in a beautiful 
valley setting with large areas of grass and 
many trees. Some of the patients live in 
dormitories, some in the hospital at the 
school, and others in small cottages, depend- 
ing upon their condition and the progress 
they have made. The small cottages provide a 
more flexible type of living for the residents, 
and the latest trend in the mental institutions 
is to allow as many as are able to live 
in smaller groups rather than the larger, 
more crowded wards. Polk also has its own 
farm and camp where the residents have 
various activities and rehabilitatimi pro- 
grams. 

Along with Pennhurst and Selinsgrove, Pcrik 
is one of the major institutions for the men- 
tMjly retarded in Pennsylvania. At Polk there 
iR a five-year waiting list to be admitted, 
Uftless it is an emergency situation. To be 
ffdinitted. the people have usually been re- 
cbmmended by a doctor, committed by a 

S>urt order, or placed in the institution by 
felr family. 

i Volunteers Greatly Appreciated 

Some of the employees said it was some- 
times rather trying to work on a job where 
one could see very Utle progress. AH of them 
mentioned the great personal satisfaction, 
however. The students who have volunteered 
have the same feeling of gratification after 
an evening of helping these people. Many 
of the residents have growth abnormalities 
and speech problems, but they have learned 
to know the student volunteers and to greet

them each week. The volunteers arc good 
listeners for the residents who are always 
eager to talk about the activities at the school 
or show pictures of their families. Some of 
the more able residents want to talk about 
what they plan to do after they leave Polk, 
and they certainly appreciate a good listener. 
They are very observant and often comment 
on the volunteer's clothes or even ask ques- 
tions about Clarion. This week, several pa- 
tients were very curious about the braces 
on one of the volunteer's teeth. 

Program Considered Rewarding 

Giving a few hours to help at Polk in 
the simulated community program is indeed 
a worthwhile and very rewarding evening, 
as well as practical experience for those 
in special education. Knowing that one has 
helped these handicapped people in even 
some small way is very satisfying. 

Dr. Kenneth Vayda, director of special ed- 
ucation, said, "This is certainly an expres- 
sion of student involvement in the problems 
of today." As we were leaving this week, 
the director of Polk State School said, "I 
don't know how we can ever thank you stu- 
dents for helping us." The personal satisfac- 
tion is thanks enough. 

Grads Appointed 

The appointment of two former Clarion 
College students to aid the 1969 Summer 
Archaeological Field Program has been con- 
firmed by President James Gemmell. 

Mr. Patrick R. McGuigan, who will re- 
ceive his masters degree at the University 
of Manitoba this spring, was appointed tem- 
porary instructor of archaeology for a six 
weeks period. 

Mr. Guido J. Riccadonna, who is now teach- 
ing at St. Marys, Pa., and taking part-time 
graduate work at Penn State, will serve 
as field assistant in the National Science 
Foundation Program. In 1965 Mr. Riccadonna 
participated in the summer field work; in 
1967 he was field assistant under the E.S.E.A. 
Title 1 program for elementary students. 
Last summer he was also field assistant.

Aerospace Education Committee 
Schedules Aviation Worhfhop 



Some Clarion State College faculty mem- 
bers who are pilots in their own right have 
taken the first step in a program aimed 
at placing the college in the mainstream 
of modern air education. 

The six flying educators comprise the 
Committee for Aerospace Education at da- 
rion State, appointed last December under 
the initiative of Dr. James Gemmell, col- 
lege president. Their experience as pilots ran- 
ges from flying the "Hump" in World War 
II through air transport piloting to receipt 
of an FAA private license close to the ini- 
tial eligibility date for Social Secmity. 

As their initial effort in the program, the 
group today announced the scheduling of 
a workshop in Aviation Education for teach- 
ers and guidance personnel. Based on the 
Clarion campus, the workshop will extend 
from June 23 through August 1 and ynW carry 
six graduate credits. 

Because of the special nature of the course, 
membership is limited to 25. 

The principal workshop goal is to acquaint 
teachers with the growing opporhmities avail- 
able in the air industry for both high school 
and college graduates. They will thus be 
able to inform their students of the variety 
of job opportunities in aviation, many of 
which are begging for qualified aiH>licants. 

Included in the program is instruction in 
aviation theory, aviation weather, air naviga- 
tion, and communications aids. Emphasis will 
be placed on utilizing these concepts to enrich

Guest speakers will be drawn from the 
ranks of aerospace personnel, including trans- 
port pilots, airline personnel officers, main-

and Greater Pittsburgh Airports, flight train- 
ing and manintenance centers of selected 
airline companies, and a flight to Wright-Pat-

DR. MARK SHEDD, Superintendeat > of SciwoU, sayc 

"I will continue to support teachers who ^re able to 
examine, in a mature way, the gut issues of our day — 
war, sex, race, drugs, poverty. If we divorce school sub*

CSC Grove City End in 4-4 Tie Varsity Golfers Tee Off 

As Rain Halts Play in the Ninth 



WRESTLING WRAP-UP 



The rains came Monday after Clarion and 
Grove City had battled to a 4-4 deadlock 
in the ninth inning of the Golden Eagles' 
second outing of the year. 

Following Saturday's rainout of the Clarion- 
Geneva scheduled double header, Coach Joe 
Knowles feels he may have the same pro- 
blem of running between the raindrops that 
he had in 1968. 

The Grovers jumped off to an early lead, 
scoring twice in the first inning and one 
each in the sixth and seventh. 

The Golden Eagles scored one run in the 
fifth on Bressler's triple and an error. Groz- 
nick followed this up in the eighth with a 
single; went to third on an error, and came 
home on a sacrifice by Wulk for Clarion's 
second run. In the ninth, Visnich singled 
went to second on a wild pitch, and was 



blasted home by the game's only round trip- 
per. Showers then put the finish to the game 
with the Knowlesmen on the attack. 

Crist went the first si.x innings on the 
mound for Clarion, relieved by Martinelli 
in the seventh. Vircek came in in the ninth 
to pitch one frame. Crist fanned five fpes, 
Martinelli lour, and Vircek two. 

Miller went eight and two-thirds innings for 
the Crimson and struck out six, relieved by 
Faas for the final out. 

The board showed eight hits for the Golden 
Eagles and nine for the Wolverines. Errors 
stood at two for Clarion and three lor Grove 
City. The Eagles left six men on base as 
against seven for The Grovers. 

The line score: 

Clarion 000 010 012—4 8 2 

Grove City 200 001 100—4 9 3

College Students 
Withdraw From 
Public on Weekends 

By JOHN TURNER 

t 
Nearly any perceptive American can vis- 
ualize the activities within the ivy walls of 
our colleges during the week: classes, study, 
sports events, dances, riots, and student 
rights marches. But most people can only 
theorize about the activities of students on 
weekends. This seems to be the time \vhen 
college pupils withdraw from the dictates 
of the faculty and the scrutiny of the press; 
from Friday afternoon until Monday morning 
they are lost from the public. 

With this in mind, the writer decided to 
follow the activities of a typical college stu- 
dent through a lost weekend. Bill is a junior 
at Clarion State College, which is located 
in northwestern Pennsylvania. He is an honor 
student, who is majoring in business admin- 
istration, and who is a defensive linebacker 
for the college football team. 

Sleep on Weekends 

According to Bill, the weekend activites 
of most college students take the form of 
sleep, recreation, and work — usually in that 
order. "Most students work hard during the 
week, and on weekends they just want to 
relax physically and mentally. Contrary to 
the popular conception of college students 
as long-haired troublemakers, most students 
are very concerned about their education, 
and often nearly exhaust themselves from 
work." 

On a recent weekend. Bill spent most of 
Saturday at York Mountain ski resort in 
Youngsville, Pa., socializing and skiing. York 
Mountain was an hour's drive from the col- 
lege campus, but, according to Bill, the drive 
and expense is worth it. 

Need Fresh Air 

"After being inside all week you need an 
opportunity to exercise and get some fresh 
air. I think most students feel the same 
way. Although many of them do not ski, 
most of them have some activity for exercise. 
This is probably why dancing is so popular 
on college campuses. Of course, just meeting 
people and talking is as gratifying as the 
exercise." 

Sunday was much different than the ener- 
getic pace of the day before. Bill slept late 
to recover from both the physical strain of 
the day before and the mental strain of the 
previous week. After getting up, Bill spent 
most of the morning listening to records, 
and talking to friends from the rest of the 
dorm who came to see him. 

"Just talking to other people is one of 
the most enjoyable habits I have. You would 
be surprised to see not only how much you 
learn about people and their philosophies, 
but how relaxing it can be." 

Duty Calls 

But it was not long before Bill began to 
feel the call of duty, and started to leaf 
through textbooks, look over assignment pads, 
and organize work material. "No matter how 
hard you try to forget school on the weekend, 
the ghost of some unfinished assignment is 
always there to haunt you. It is hard to 
relax when you know you have an assign- 
ment due Monday morning. 

"1 usually try to make Sunday a mixture 
of relaxation and work. I will work for an 
hour or two, and then take an hour off to 
visit someone, or play cards, or listen to 
some records. If I have a lot of work, Sunday 
evening is usually all work. On weekends 
when you don't have much work to do, you 
can really enjoy the college environment. 
But those weekends are few." 

Not all college students are as diligent 
as Bill when it comes to weekend work, 
nor are they all as concerned about exercise. 
But as Bill pointed out, nearly all of them

Band Returns From Chemistry student Chosen 



Successful Tour 

The Clarion State College Concert Band 
received four standing ovations in a series 
of five concerts played in an April 21-22 
tour of Northwestern Pennsylvania high 
schools and at Alliance College. 

The tour completed the first ten of 16 spring 
concerts and clinics on the schedule of the 
95-piece Concert Band, directed by Dr. Stan- 
ley F. Michalski, which has gained recogni- 
tion among Pennsylvania state college bands. 

Beginning February 25, the band held three 
concerts that day at Cranberry, Rocky Grove 
and West Forest High schools. On March 
26 they presented performances at Clarion 
Area High School and at Immaculate Con- 
ception High School in Clarion. 

Concerts played April 21-22 were at Tidloute 
and TownviUe high schools and at Alliance 
College, Cambridge Springs. The program 
at Alliance College, an 8 p.m. event, was 
part of the Lecture-Artist Series of that in- 
stitution. 

On May 4 the band will give a concert 
at Chief Logan High School, Lewistown, on 
their way to a concert engagement in Harris- 
burg May 5, where they will play at the 
Inauguration ceremonies for the Hon. Grace 
M. Sloan, Treasurer of the Commonwealth 
of Pennsylvania, in the State Education Build- 
ing Forum. 

Other spring band events on campus will 
include the May 10 Brass Clinic— Open Re- 
hearsal, with William Bell as clinician, and 
the Annual Mother's Day Concert May 11, 
with Bell as tuba soloist. 

Bell is on the music faculty of the Univer- 
sity of Indiana, Bloomington, Ind., and played 
tuba for 18 years with the New York Sym- 
phony under Arturo Toscanini. 



have some form of relaxation on the week- 
end, whether skiing, dancing, dating, reading, 
or something else. And mosit of them do 
find some time to keep up their work, whe- 
ther it be nearly all weekend or a few hours 
the last thing Sunday night. 

From this, it seems fairly safe to assume 
that college students do not disappear from 
Friday afternoon until Monday morning into 
some unknown realm. Most of them spend 
the time relaxing and working, in prepara- 
tion for Monday's class — or riot.

Grapplers Finish in Fine Style 



In the story of Clarion State College wrest- 
ling for the 1968-69 season, major billing must 
be shared by a dedicated team captain and 
the close-knit, well disciplined team itself, 
for both the team and captain — deserved and 
complemented each other. 

The captain, a senior from State College, 
and team captain for three years, was Doug 
Niebel. With equal parts of desire, dedica- 
tion, and natural ability, this young man 
has earned a prominent place in the history 
of Clarion State College wrestling. 

Has Injury 

As a freshman, Doug found himself side- 
lined with a knee injury after two varsity 
matches. As a sophomore, he wasted no time 
in making up for that brief first year. He 
forged a 14-3-1 record and climaxed the sea- 
son by capturing second place in the Penn- 
sylvania State College Conference. His junior 
year was marked by a 17-6 record and a 
fourth-place finish in the State Conference. 

Thus the foundation was laid for one of 
the outstanding success stories at Clarion 
State— Doug Niebel's 1968-69 season. Though 
hampered by a number of injuries, Doug 
compiled a 20-6-1 record, highlighted by win- 
ning the 160-pound championship of the State 
College Conference. This achievement, in it- 
self, would have been an outstanding climax 
to a fine career, but Doug wasn't finished. 
At the N.A.I. A. Tournament in Omaha, Ne- 
braska, he clinched fifth place. And in the 
N.C.A.A. Tournament at Brigham Young Un- 
iversity where 47 wrestlers competed in his 
weight class, Doug finished sixth. In so doing, 
he became the first national N.C.A.A. place 
winner in Clarion's history. 

Doug Niebel will graduate in May. He will 
take with him a career record of 52-16-2, 
Successive second, fourth, and first-place fin- 
ishes in the State Conference, a fifth-place 
in N.A.I. A. competition, and a sixth-place 
finish in the rugged N.C.A.A. tournament. 
His leadership, experience, and determination 
will be hard to replace. 

Loses Only Three 

The Clarion State wrestling team, like its 
captain, turned in an outstanding season. Its 
achievements were many. In dual meet com- 
petition, the squad hammered out an 11-3 
record, averaging a fantastic 39.4 points per 
meet while limiting opponents to a meager 
10.3 average. In the 11 victories were three 
shut-outs, and no defeated team managed 
to score more than ten points. As for the 
three losses, they came at the hands of three 
powerhouses— Lock Haven State, Bloomsburg 
State, and the University of Pittsburgh. The 
impressive record speaks for itself. 

With a team consisting of 7 sophomores, 
3 juniors, and 1 senior, the Golden Eagles 



were given, at best, a "dark horse" role 
in the rugged State Conference Tournament. 
When the two-day competition ended, Clarion 
had captured second place behind nationally- 
ranked l.ock Haven State. Interestingly eo- 
ough, the Eagles nosed out Bloomsburg State, 
thus avenging one of their three regular sea- 
son losses. In the otherwise well balance^ 
tournament. Clarion "placed" 10 out of a 
possible 11 wrestlers — an accomplishment un- 
oqualed by any other state college. 

But the team successes were not limited 
to state competition. In the N.A.I. A. Tourneiy 
at Omaha, Nebraska, the Golden Eagles fin- 
ished ninth in the country among a field 
of 88 schools. And in the N.C.A.A. Tounu- 
ment at Brigham Young University, Clarioa 
placed among the top 35 teams in a field 
oi 105. 

Gave Fine Performances 

The 1968-69 squad saw several fine Indivi- 
dual performances. In the 137-pound class. 
Randy Stine, a junior from Philipsburg, com- 
piled a 12-7 record, bringing his two-year car- 
reer total to 31-11. Randy also placed third 
in the Pennsylvania Conference and fifth ifi 
the N.A.I. A. at Omaha. 

In tlie 145-pound class, sophomore Les Bres- 
sler from Curwensville, forged a 11-4 record 
and capped the year with a third-place finish 
in the state and a fifth place in the N.A.I.A. 
Tourney. 

In the 177-pound class, Henry Shaffer, a 
junior from DuBois, topped Ids 14-5 record 
with a third-place finish in the State Tour- 
ney. 

Another third-place winner In the State com- 
petitions was Jack Riegel, 191-pound sopho- 
more from Centre Hall. Riegel's totals tar 
the year were 14-5-1. 

In the 167-pound class, Santo Ricotta, a 
junior from Clearfield, compiled an excel- 
lent 18-3 record, bringing his two-year record 
to 35-10. Ricotta 's fine season was highlighted 
by his winning second place in the State 
Conference Tournament. 

The 1968-69 wrestling season at Clarioo 
State will be hard to duplicate, but with 
10 returning veterans and with a freshman 
team that rode roughshod over opponents 
in achieving a 6-1 record, Coaches Bob Bubb 
and Neil Turner could very well be adding 
another shelf to the trophy case in the Clarioa 
State College gym. f.

Little Anthony and Imperials 
Will Be Here Next Friday 




LITTLE ANTHONY AND THE IMPERIALS will be in Clarion next Friday 
evening (May 9) for a concert in Tippin Gymnasium. The social committee 
has contracted for this group in place of Martha and the Vandellas, who 
were seb^uiai to perform last Thursday as part of Spring Weekend, but 
who cancelled their performance because of illness. Students will be ad- 
mitted free to the concert. 

Two Editors Are Chosen; 
Sharron Lehman Is Editor 



Sharron E. Lehman, a junior from Secane, 
a suburb of Philadelphia, has been appointed 
editor-in-chief of the Clarion Call for 1969-70, 
and Larilyn Andre, a sophomore from Chi- 
cora, has been appointed feature editor. John 
Hankey, a junior from Oakdale, was reap- 
pointed to the post of advertising manager. 

The appointments were announced last 
weekend by Richard K. Redfem, professor 
of English and adviser to the Call staff. 
The new editors will assume their positions 
at the start of the school year in Septem- 
ber. 

Miss Lehman, who is in the elementary 
education curriculum, has a double concen- 
tration in French and art. She spent the 
fall term in France as a student at Aix-en- 
Provence University. During the second sem- 
ester she has served as exchange editor and, 
since March, as feature editor of the Call. 

Miss Andre, who is in the liberal arts pro- 
gram, is majoring in English and minoring 
in psychology. In 1966-67 she lived in Boden, 
Sweden, under the sponsorship of the Chicora 
Rotary Club as part of the Rotary Interna- 
tional Youth Exchange Program. During the 
1968-69 school year Miss Andre has covered 
several beats for the Call and has in addition 
written numerous feature stories. 

Appointments to other major positions on 
the Call staff— news editor, sports editor, and 
copy editor— were not made because of a 
lack of applications, Dr. Redfcrn said. He 
quoted one member of the Call editorial staff 
who said: "The students at Clarion want 
a good college paper, but they don't want 
to work on it." 

The new editors and the adviser will con- 
tinue to welcome expressions of interest from 
students who would like reporting or editorial 
jobs on next year's Call. 

One possible new position is that of editorial 
writer, a position for which Brian C. Mussel- 



man of the Venango Campus has applied. 
Mr. Musselman, a freshman from Lemoyne, 
who expects to transfer to the main campus 
in September, has had considerable exper- 
ience as a reporter and editorial Ajiritw for 
weekly newspapers and has also written some 
stories for this year's Call about Venango 
Campus news. 

Attending Meeting of 
IRA in Kansas City 

Dr. Phyllis W. Smith, associate professor 
of education, and Dr. Arnold H. Zaesfce, pro- 
fessor of education, are attending a meeting 
of the International Reading Association, Ap- 
ril 30-May 2, in Kansas City. 

Dr. Smith will participate in a seminar 
on psycholinguistics and Dr. Zaeske in a 
seminar on the administration of reading cli- 
nics. 

Dr. Zaeske will deliver a research paper 
relating to the validity of the de Hirsch Tests 
in predicting reading failure at the end of 
the first grade. 



CLARION DEBATERS 
TO APPEAR ON TV 

On Saturday at 5:30, students can watch 
two of Clarion's debaters in action. WJAC- 
TV in Johnstown (Channel 6) will be fea- 
turing a debate between Clarion and West 
Virginia University. The topic for discus- 
sion will be resolved: That American wo- 
men are losing their feminity. 

Elizabeth Ferguson of Gibsonia and 
Mary Lou McCauliff of Johnstown wiU be 
upholding the negative of that resolution.

'CarnivaF Has 'Its Moments'; Fine Performers 
Help Make It 'Outstanding Musical Success'

A STUDENT REVIEW . . . 



EDITOR'S NOTE: CamivaPs cast is 
printed on page four of this week's Call. 

By SHERRY LEHMAN 

The spring production of Carnival is an 
outstanding musical success, although the 
plot is a bit insipid for our times, and the 
action lags a bit here and there. The necessity 
of presenting the musical in Tippin Gym- 
na.sium (due to the large cast and the over- 
size stage set) is rather unfortunate acousti- 
cally, but otherwise the play is quite enjoy- 
able. The set is original and colorful, and 
the costumes are marvelous. 

Frank Coleman, the guest star, is superb 
in his portrayal of the embittered Paul Ber- 
thalet, and sensitive and amusing in his role 
as the puppeteer who falls in love with Lili. 
Mr. Coleman is a fine singer with tremendous 
projection abilities which were notable even 
in the gym. 

Kathy Barron plays the role of the ingenu- 
ous, orphaned LUi, who comes to the carnival 
after her father's death to find a job. Her 
little girl's world is shattered through con- 
tact with Paul and his puppets who teach 
her about the importance of dreams and 
love, but also the reality of pain and hurt. 
Miss Barron is absolutely radiant when she 
sings, but a more mature and demanding 
role would perhaps have exhibited her talents 
more fully. Her natural innocence is delight- 
ful, though. 

The musical score of Carnival is rather 
trite and timewom lyrically, but two num- 
bers are especially enjoyable: "Beautiful 
Candy," done by the entire cast is a song 
that makes you smile; and "Her Face," done 
by Mr. Coleman, is a love poem to Lili, sweet 
and stirring. 

The canlival is owned by the overbearing 
B, F. Schlegel, played quite convincingly by 
John Dorish, a master of contemptuous ex- 
pressions as he views the loves and wars 
of his unpredictable troupe. "The Incompar- 
able Rosalie" and "Marco the Magnificent," 
the rather gaudy lovers and partners who 
star in Schlegel's show, are played amusing- 
ly by Roseann Zaremba and John Solomon. 
George Hall is a marvelous and lovable Jac- 
quot, and Cookie Smith is irreplaceable as 
the conceited, oversexed Princess Olga. Steve 
Brezzo's performance as the bumbling Dr. 
Glass, Swiss veterinarian, is hilarious, and 
Mr. Brezzo is also one of the puppet masters 
for the show. 

The rest of the cast is composed of singers, 
dancers, and a few assorted stuntm^. The 
main assets of the show are the large cast, 
necessary for volume in the gym; the huge 
number of colorful and ingenious props; and 
the variety of bright, showy costumes which 
make the total production more impressive. 
The choreography was good in certain num- 
bers, but generally rather haphazard. The 
aotors were not always coordinated with the 
music and each other. The music, a small 



First Small Project Grant 
In Science Ed. Approved 

Kenneth E. Mechling, associate professor 
of biology, has been notified by Congressman 
John Saylor that the United States Office 
of Education has approved a small project 
research grant for his use in a science ed- 
ucation project. 

The grant, the first of its kind approved 
at Qarion, is in the amount of $8,162. 

Entitled "A Strategy for Stimulating the 
Adoption and Dissusion of Science Curricul- 
um Innovations Among Elementary School 
Teachers," the project has also been appro- 
ved by Michigan State University as the dis- 
sertation subject for Mechling's candidacy 
for the Ph. D. in science education. 

Tlie grant was obtained with the help of 
Curtis Sandage, assistant director of the col- 
lege's center for educational research. 

Faculty to Discuss Today 
New Senate Constitution 

A new constitution and set of bylaws for 
the Faculty Senate is scheduled for discussion 
at a meeting of the general faculty at four 
o'clock this afternoon in the Chapel. 

The meeting, originally called for Tuesday 
afternoon, was recessed at 4:10 p.m. Tuesday 
by President James Gemmell because of a 
lack of a quorum. He announced that 140 
faculty members were needed for a quorum 
and that only 102 were present. 

At today's meeting Dr. William A. McCau 
ley, chairman of the committee which drew 
up the new constitution and bylaws, will dis- 
tribute copies of some amendments which 
have already been proposed by individual 
faculty members and by departments of the 
c«Uege. 



m 



group led by Mr. Roncone, was adequate, 
but frequently drowned out the lines of the 
actors. 

The director, Dr. Mary Hardwick, handled 
the complexity of Carnival very well, with 
aid from a novice student director, Linda 
Loxterman. 

The general high morale and enthusiasm 
of the cast is contagious, and for this reason 
the show is funny and pleasant, but surely 
a more contemporary and pertinent musical 
would have done greater justice to all the 
time spent in preparation for Carnival. 

OPINION POLL 

Students React 



To Exam Changes 



By LARILYN ANDRE 

When the student body heard that finals 
were starting two days later than originally 
planned, there were mixed reactions. Some 
students rejoiced at the hope that they would 
have two mor« days lo study; many were 
dismayed at the idea of staying on campus 
two days longer. 

But the plan of two more study days fell 
through. The two study days have been trans- 
formed by the administration into full class 
days. Finals will nm until Friday, May 23. 

What motivated the administration to make 
these changes? What else but concern for 
the welfare of the students. Here it is straight 
from Dean Moore: 

"There is a great deal of dissatisfaction 
with giving tests on the last day of classes. 
The reason originally was due to the diffi- 
culty in scheduling examinatioQs in one 
week's time. The faculty felt it was cutting 
down on class time which could be used 
in review." But, how many professors will 
actually review what is going to be on the 
tjst? 

Dean Moore also mentioned the difficulties 
in scheduling a combination of one-hour and 
two-hour tests; the number of requests for 
two-hour tests has been increasing. It shoyid 
now be possible to make uniform two-hour 
periods over the entire week. 

Finals will still run until Friday. Utilizing 
the whole week will allow for a more even 
distributiwi of test periods, and wUl reduce 
the number of conflicts. This, in turn, should 
enable the students to be better prepared. 

Of course the student body is going to 
react to this change in some way, if only 
verbally. A number of students were asked 
to give their opinions. Here are a few sam- 
ples. 

Bob Bowersox: "My first reaction was 
'so what,' but later I attempted to reason 
why an institution, such as this, which in- 
volves a magnitude of individuals, would, 
a couple weeks before the semester's con- 
clusion, find it necessary to adjust their (our) 
calendar. It bad been set and planned for 
over a period of many months. Personally, 
the matter is more a source of irritation 
than one of significant importance. Has this 
school ever heard of reading or study days 
preceding finals?" 

Diane Knapp: "I doubt seriously whether 
many students wiU take advantage of their 
two extra days and attend classes at all. 
If they haven't covered the material by now, 
I doubt if they can learn it in time for 
exams. I don't think that the majoritj^ of 
the students wanted more time. It only pro- 
longs the anxiety and shortens the vacatjoti." 
Nancy Bonsall: "I see no reason for the 
finals to be delayed two days so the stud^its 
can have tiie "pleasure and benefit" of at- 
tending classes for two more days. If the 
students were given the two days as free 
time to prepare for their exams, the change 
might have been a wise one; but by extend- 
ing classes during this time period, this piur- 
pose is defeated. Furthermore, one or two 
additional hours seems a very insufficient 
time period to efficiently cover subject mat- 
ter which has been neglected or overlooked 
in the past." 

Chris Wynkoop: "I feel that having the 
two extra days of classes will leave us less 
time to study; therefore it is not a good 
idea. The deans want us to study and make 
good grades, yet they put a sprag in our 
wheel by adding two more days of classes." 
Andy Park: "It would be very nice to 
have the two additional class days off. Since 
the school has the power to change the sche- 
dule, little can be done but to suffer a UtUe 
longer." 

Garry Schmader: "I believe the faculty 
and students should- follow the original sche- 
dule for the Spring Semester and that the 
tv.'o additional days should be left free to 
study for finals." 

The students appear to be of one mind: 
if we are to have an eoctra two days sche- 
duled at the end of the semester, they should 
be ^t aside for studying. 



A FACULTY REVIEW . . . 

By HUGH WINSTON PARK 
Professor of English 

There is, after all, something about a mu- 
sical. The simple boy-girl love stories, around 
which musicals invariably center, when pro- 
jected in song, regardless how trite the tale 
or how corny the situations, are affectitig 
in a way, I think, no other theater can be. 

Music, of course, is the greatest art. Hu- 
man beings are the most fascinating, glorious 
and wretched beings on earth. Put these para- 
doxical bipeds in a play, let them use their 
marvelous speech, but lend them music for 
their intense moments of love, joy, grief, 
pain, and the combination is irresistible. 
When well done, a good musical can grant 
you unforgettable moments. The college pro- 
duction of Carnival is not of the highest 
order of musicals, but it too has its moments. 

Why quibble about some things? The atmos- 
phere is "carnival," yes, but it's also "gym- 
nasium." The acoustics are awful. In the 
reserved seats not only can one not hear. 
but he can't see either. Only a deaf lip reader 
could sit near the orchestra and hope to 
get anything from the story. In the bleachers 
—better, but still a struggle to hear. Let 
the sneakered set play in the gym, and let 
the college players play in the chapel until 
tlieir new house is ready. 

A more lethal charge must be leveled at 
the choreography. In plain terms: It was 
awful, unbelievably bad. It was of that em- 
barrassing quality that causes one to turn 
aside and not look. The choreographer sub- 
stituted yelling and clapping for ingenuity, 
style, grace, and even, I might add, for re- 
hearsal. Individual performers might have 
danced well. But in the bedlam it was hard 
to find them. Carnival was remarkable be- 
cause its big numbers were its low points. 

The strength of the college players over 
the years has been, I think, the quality of 
eertain individual players. Only now and then 
does a total show come off. But always there 
are some fine performers. John Dorish is 
one such. He was fine in a necessary, but 
thankless role. He did eveiything he could 
with what was there. 

George Hall turned in a very sturdy job 
as Jacquot, Paul's gentle, understanding, and 
optimistic sidekick. And Roseann Zaremba, 
as The Incomparable Rosalie, was almost 
exiactly that. Brash and breezy, she had the 
right style and the right voice. She project- 
ed a fine mixture of toughness, humor, and 
ebullience. But since she did not play a rous- 
tabout, she might well have modified her 
walk. 

John Solomon was competent as Marco, 
but it was difficult to understand why women 
would faU like tenpins before his amorous 
assaults. His role vis-ia-vis Lili perhaps was 
poorly written. Certainly, he seemed a most 



indifferent seducer. Or was he supposed to 
have, underneath it all, a heart ol gold? 
Katliy Barron, as Lili, had tlie requisite 
innocence, and trom (he bleachers, her face 
looked precisely right. The scene in which, 
as a novice assistant to Marco and Rosalie, 
she becomes so caught up in their third- 
rate legerdemain that she spoils their act 
is charmingly done. Her singing voice is light 
and pleasant in its middle register, but it 
hasn't much top. Miss Barron can carry her 
weight all right, but it seems cruel to ask 
her to sing while five men hang up a single 
string of lights behind her. No one needs 
that kind of upstaging. 

Clarion is a small burg and maybe it's 
provincial, but why must we underscore the 
fact with such blunders as the announcement 
on the Carnival program: "with Broadway 
star Frank Coleman"? If he is, there's no 
need to say it; if he's not, saying it won't 
make it so. But whatever his status in New 
York, Mr. Coleman was exactly right for 
the role of Paul. By that I mean that dark, 
slender actors make better idealists than do 
fair, chubby ones. 

Mr. Coleman plays his part with fine in- 
tensity, and his singing is first rate. I have 
only two suggestions: First, that he make 
his stage business more meaningful when 
he putters around his booth as he eavesdrops 
on Lili and Marco. He needs no excuse to 
stand by his own booth, and his puttering 
obscured the pain he must have felt. Second, 
what to do with the eyes as one sings a 
solo? There's no one to look at. Mr. Cole- 
man sings "That's All I Need" while his 
eyes search the floor. It's a problem. None- 
theless, it's a pleasure to watch a professional 
at work. 

The costumes were appropriately gaudy, 
and the setting was well conceived, if not 
perhaps too well executed. Evidence of for- 
mer splendor gone to seed there was none. 
Or should it have been seediness gone fur- 
ther to seed? A stage setting should have 
its own character designed to underscore the 
nature of the action which unfolds within 
it. "This, I thought, was lacking. 

Professor Roncone led his small ensemble 
with skill, although at times it overwhelmed 
the singers. 

Professor Hardwick is to be commended 
for a difficult job well done. The weakest 
elements in the show were beyond her con- 
trol, most notably the choreography, but 
where the director's hand was in evidence, 
it could be seen in firm control. The terrible 
difficulty in directing a play, and a stUl 
greater difficulty in a musical, is to get 
a willing suspension of disbelief that is sus- 
tained. The more complex a show, the more 
things there are that can go wrong to^break

Delta Zetas^ Theta Chis Place First 
In Ninth Annual Greek Sing 



The Ninth Annual Greek Sing was won 
by Delta Zeta Sorority and Theta Chi Fra- 
ternity. A largie crowd was on hand in Tip- 
pin Gymnasium Friday evening for the event 
which proved to be one of the best Greek 
Sings ever, with seven fraternities and seven 
sororities taking part in the competition 
which is jointly sponsored by IFC and Pan- 
hellenic Council. 

Master of Ceremonies Bob Ament and Mis- 
tress of Ceremonies Pam Grantham made 
the opening remarks and introduced each 
of the competing organizations. After some 
very close competition, the decisions of the 
judges were announced. In the sorority com- 
petition, there wag a tie for second place 
between Alpha Sigma Tau and Sigma Sigma 
Sigma. 



The first-place trophy went to Delta Zeta 
for their performance of "A Place in the 
Sun" and "I Left My Heart in San Fran- 
cisco." Fraternity honors were taken by Tau 
Kappa Epsilon, second, and Theta Chi. first. 
The Chi's winning songs were "Cornell Al- 
ma Mater" and "Gaudeamus." 

Judges for this event were Sister Mary 
Edward of Lucinda and Mrs. Doris Weaver 
of Knox. Unable to attend was Dr. Russel 
Nelson of Indiana, Pa. 

Also given at this event were the scholar- 
ship trophies. Second place in the sorority 
division went to Alpha Sigma Tau and first 
place to Sigma Sigma Sigma. In the frater- 
nity division, Alpha Chi Rho placed second 
and Phi Sigma Kappa, first.

THE CALL — Clarion State College, Clarion, Pennsylvania 



I'riday, rfay i, 1909 



Editorially 
Speaking 



NEWS EDITOR'S SWAN SO^G 

Editorials May Do Some Good; 
One Caused A Lot of Trouble 



Tiirougiiout tiie year my editorials 
have primarily dealt with a theme for 
unity on Clarion's campus, unity be- 
tween students, faculty, and adminis- 
tration. Whether there has been any 
profound change in Clarion's attitude 
remains to be seen. But change has 
occurred on a small scale. If these 
changes are due partially to my edi- 
torials, then I can feel as if I have ac- 
complished something. 

The biggest change that has oc- 
curred possibly because of an editori- 
al I* have written was the one pertairt- 
ing to the sign-out procedures. This 
editorial caused some disagreement 
among the deans. 

The disagreement began because 
I failed to go to the deans to see if 
anything was being done in the way of 
changing sign-out procedures. After 
writing the editorial the other editors 
and I found out that a change was be- 
ing considered. 

My next big editorial was the one 
on the cafeteria. The trouble this edi- 
torial caused is unbelievable. Every- 
one from Dean Vairo to Ed Gathers 
was upset. But the food has improved, 
we now see menus, and there is a com- 
mittee that deals primarily with the 
cafeteria. 

I believe that 1 was too harsh on 
the cafeteria with my question "Can 
the cafeteria staff really ruin all the 
food they touch?" And we have learn- 
ed that there are "other meats than 
veal and pork available." Of all the 
editorials I have written, this is one 
that I should have written and then 
later rewritten a little more tactfully. 

In the February 14 edition of the 
Call, I wrote an editorial advising the 
administration to prepare for the in- 
creasing student power. I'm not sure 
that any steps the administration has 
taken to bring student power to Clar- 
ion has been due to my editorial; in 
fact, probably none of it has happened 
because I "advised" the administra- 
tion. 

But here again the important thing 
is that steps are being taken to involve 
the students, and Clarion will not "be 
allowed to lie dormant, fester, and 



finally burst forth into (possibly) an- 
other Columbia." Many students may 
feel that the involvement and "the 
power" is not coming fast enough, but 
"finding time in which the change can 
be made" is the hardest thing. The 
student power we want is coming, and 
we will get it. 

I also commented on the lack of 
well-known entertainment for week- 
ends and Clarion's need for a uniform 
cut system. Neither of these issues 
have been eliminated, and to my know- 
ledge not much has been done to help 
rid Clarion of them. Although now I 
can see that one possible solution to 
our "entertainment hangup" is the 
raising of the activities fee, although I 
realize that many students are against 
this proposal, there are many advan- 
tages that should be considered. 

One can not expect well-known 
entertainment and still have money 
for all of the other activities. Person- 
ally I'd rather see the Call receive its 
fair amount of the activities fee than 
have it cut for another organization's 
use. This sounds selfish, but realistic- 
ally it's not. 

I still contend, as do the other 
editors, that Clarion needs a uniform 
cut system. Although relatively noth- 
ing has been done with this issue, I 
feel that something should be changed. 
Some organization (possibly faculty sen- 
ate) should be willing to devote their 
time and effort to alleviating this prob- 
lem. 

The rest of my editorials dealt 
with different issues I felt were im- 
portant to Clarion's campus. Many of 
them can (possibly) be passed over and 
forgotten as insignificant, but many 
hours of thought and writing went in- 
to them. I can honestly say that my 
editorials have improved somewhat 
since the beginning of the year — if not 
in content, at least in style. 

I would like to say that being news 
editor for the paper has been a lot of 
work, but it has also been a lot of fun. 
And I will sincerely miss my opportun- 
ity "to sound off" every week.

Why Two Extra Days of Classes? 
Students Ask; Answer Disappoints 



The students on this campus were 
recently disturbed by a notice that ap- 
peared in last Friday's bulletin. Ac- 
cording to the announcement, which 
was released by the dean of academiic 
affairs, finals will begin on Saturday, 
May 17. instead of Thursday, May 15, 
as scheduled. 

In addition, the class schedule has 
been altered. Classes are now sched- 
uled to meet on Thursday, May 15, and 
Friday, May 16. No explanation was 
given for these changes. As a result, 
students soon began discussing the is- 
sue between themselves. "We want 
to know why," was the general result 
of these discussions. 

A group of students headed by Pat 
Losik, AWS president, decided to find 
out why the changes were made "by 
going through the proper channels" 
(as students are so often told to do). 

The campus leaders were notified, 
informal meetings were held, and the 
students united in a common cause: To 
find out why and to see what could be 
done about the situation. 

A meeting was held in the presi- 
dent's conference room on Wednesday 
at 2:30 p.m. with James D. Moore, dean 
of academic affairs. A representative 
from each of the major student organ- 
izations was present including AWS. 
Student Senate, each of the sororities 
and fraternities. Men's Interhall Coun- 
cil, and the Call. 

Pat Lossik began the discussion by 
stating that the students and many of 
the faculty simply do not like the 



changes. Comments were also made 
by some of the other students each of 
whom expressed their discontentment 
with the way that the changes were 
made: 

"Why did this change occur so late 
' in the semester?" 

"Why were classes extended?" 

"Why can't we have Thursday and 
Friday off to prepare for exams?" 
. "Why was the exam period short- 
• ened?" 

Dean Moore was faced with these 
^estions and many similar ones. He 
answered most of these questions by 
stating that the deans were "unhappy 
with the former plan." He, in fact, 
stated that he originally proposed the 
riew system himself, and that his de- 
cision was strengthened by a petition 
submitted by George Harmon, profes- 
sor of biology. He felt that the new 
plan "gives the students more of what 
they are entitled to have." 

But aren't the students also en- 
titled to voice their opinions on such 
a change? At one time, a student ask- 
ed, "Why do we have two extra class 
days?" 

"Nothing you would say would 
have much effect on that," was Dean 
Moore's answer. 

The discussions continued, and no 
real results occuiTed. In the end, how- 
ever. Dean Moore ' agreed to discuss 
the is.sue with the administrative coun- 
cil, and he stated that the students 
would be informed of their decision 
"at the first of the week."

Letters to the Editor 



Stories on Intramurals ISeeded Thieves, Mutilators — Beivare! 



Editor, The Call: 

As a reader of The call, 1 have a sugges- 
tion for making the paper more on the stu- 
dent level. Many fraternities and other or- 
ganized groups participate weekly in intra- 
mural events. 

I think it would be a gofd addition to 
the paper and a creator of * enUiusiasm if 
a weekly column was written to report on 
the contests of that week, such as the pre- 
sent standings in each event and over-all 
."ntramural standings. 

RICH GENSEL 



Although the students objected to 
the changes in the final schedule, their 
main gripes were centered around the 
extension of classes and all-day Satur- 
day finals. 

Is it fair to ask students to go to 
classes all week and take finals on Sat- 
urday, too? One instructor said that 
"it's only civilized" to give students at 
least one day to rest and prepare for 
finals. 

Is it fair for the administration to 
spring a change in the calendar this 
late in the semester? 

It may be true that these changes 
are not major ones and they may not 
affect campus activities to a great ex- 
tent. But the students are concerned 
with these changes, and the editor of 
the Call feels that it is the duty of the 
student newspaper to represent the 
students' best interests. 

For this reason, it is hoped that 
the administration will not treat this 
matter lightly. Instead, it is hoped 
that they will review the changes with 
the students' interests in mind. 

— C. W. 



Editor, The Call: 

In view of the increasing number of com- 
plaints with regard to the mutilation or un- 
authorized removal of library materials, a 
sub-committee of the college Library Com- 
mittee was appointed to investigate the pro- 
blem. The sub-committee is composed of two 
students and two faculty members: Alfred 
R. Serff, Owen D. Winters, Dr. J. Robert 
Moore, and Dr. Richard Bradley, chairman. 
The sub-committee's statement which follows 
has been approved by the Library Commit- 

tS€. 

As an initial step toward ameliorating the 
problem, the committee wishes to take this 
means of calling the problem to the atten- 
tion of the entire faculty and student bodies. 
Thoughtful consideration of the matter makes 
it clear that any attempt to solve the problem 
must avoid steps which would penalize the 
vast majority of cooperative library users. 
We appeal to this group to assist in efforts 
to develop an atmosphere in which theft or 
mutilation of library materials will be ra 
garded as an action against all of us. 

It seems appropriate to point out that the 
free access and open stacks which we pre- 
sently enjoy here at Clarion is a sharp con- 
trrst to regulated access to and from many 
other libraries. Should mutilation and theft 
of library materials continue, the library will 
be compelled to institute some sort of pro- 
tection to insure that books and periodicals 
can be located intact for the library user 
requesting them. The onus will be on these 
few who make this action necessary. 

The Library Committee asks for the alle- 
giance of all library users in working towards 
the goal of total elimination of book thefts 
and mutilation. 

To that small number among us who are 
the active offenders, we wish to make it 
quite clear that future violations will be dealt 
with promptly and effectively. Such actions 
cannot be regarded simply as thoughtless 
or immature. Their seriousness rests in the 
fact that they penalize not only those of 
us presently using the facility, but those who 



will use the library in the future as well. 
The state law provides that anyone who muti- 
lates library materials shall be deemed guilty 
of a misdemeanor and may be prosecuted 
for said offense. Upon conviction he is liable 
to pay a fine of $25 and costs of prose- 
cution or to undergo imprisonment in the 
county jail for a period not exceeding 15 
days, or both. (The Library Code, June 14, 
1961. Public Law 324, Section 427.) 

DAN GRAVES, Librarian 



The sleep of a laboring man is sweet, whe- 
ther he eat little or much, but the abundance 
of the rich will not suffer him to sleep.— Ec- 
clesiastes, 5:12. 



New Students to Get 
Summer Orientation 

Beginning this June, Clarion State College 
will offer a two-day summer orientation pro- 
gram to acquaint new students with college 
living and studying. Academic advisement 
will be given to aid in selection of courses 
for the fall semester. Accommodations for 
the parents of the students will also be avail- 
able for the two days. 

The proposed series of ten two-day ses- 
sions begins June 30 and runs until August 
7 with 120 students attending each session. 
During these sessions, students will be as- 
signed to their residence halls, preliminary 
examinations and placement tests will be 
administered, advisors will be assigned and 
various recreational activities will be offered.

A Peek At Greeks 



DELTA ZETA 

Delta Zeta is very proud of all the sisters 
and pledges who helped to make this Spring 
Weekend such a success. A .soorial thanks 
to Pammy Grantham, song leader, who gave 
us the direction and the spirit we neeued 
to win first place at Greek Sing last Friday. 
Congratulations are extended to all Greeks 
for their participation and especially to those 
who placed in their events. 

Our pledges who came through Monday 
night in good form entertained the sisters 
at the annual "Big Sis-Li'l Sis" Party on 
Wednesday night. A big thank-you is sent 
to them for a memorable evening. Despite 
all the trials and tribulations of pledging, 
we hope that they are as anxious to become 
our sisters as we are to become theirs. 

TAU KAPPA EPSILON 

Election of officers to serve during the 
1969-70 term was conducted at our last weekly 
meeting. The following were elected: Bill 
Hartman, president; Rich Gensel, vice pre- 
sident; Ron DeWoody, re-elected secretary; 
Randy McNear, treasurer; Larry Moyer, ser- 
geant at arms; Dane Merry man, historian; 
Jim Wood, pledgemaster; Steve Baum, social 
chairman; John Keough, chaplain; Gregg 
Schleiper, athletic chairman; and Doug Prince

Congratulations go out to Bill Burkes and 
Bob Dornan for taking a first place for Teke 
in the College Bowl, the fraters who parti- 
cipated hi Greek Sing for taking a second 
place, Gene Brancoline a»id Tony Eupizi for 
winning first places in 'rack events at the 
intramural track meet on Saturday, and also 
to the whole fraternity for putting a lot of 
effort into Greek Olympics on Sunday, 

ALPHA SIGMA TAU 

Greek weekend found the sisters actively 
participating in the many campus activities, 
and bringing back many honors for AT. Tying 
for second place in Greek Sing was a big 
thrill for all of the sisters who have worked 
so hard in the past weeks to bring back 
a victory for Alpha Tau. 

We would like to say thanks to all of our 
alumni who came back to support us, and 
to the many guys who did so much for our 
morale. We would especially like to give 
our thanks and congratulations to Sue Paul 
who did a great job directing us. 

The Taus are also proud of the second 
place scholarship honors and our third place 
in Greek Olympics. In addition, many tnanks 
go to Becky Dixon and Ro.se Gatesman who 
represented us in the C/oUege Bowl. 

Congratulations also go to some individual 
Taus. Pledge Pat Angel was 'elected secre- 
tary of AWS, and Peg Harding was appointed 
Panhel representative to AWS. We would 
also like to say congratulations and good 
luck to the new Panhel president, Kathy 
Wildenauer. 

Sue Paul was recently named this Year's 
Top Tau. Chosen by our national on the basis 
of scholarship, campus activities, and soror- 
ity service, Sue is the sister who best repre- 
sents the ideals of Alpha Sigma Tau in the 
Alpha Omicron chapter. Congratulations, 
Sue! 

Informal initiation of our Spring Pledge 
class was held a few weeks ago in Cook 
Forest. Everyone had a great time, including 
the pledges who are almost finished with 
their eight weeks of pledging. 

PHI SIGMA EPSILON 

Congratulations to whoever took first place 
at the Greek Olympic Games and to the 
brothers of Alpha Gamma Phi who tied with 
the Phi Sigs for the second-place trophies. 
By events, the Phi Sigs took first place in 
the 440 yard relay and second place in the 
rope pull. We rolled to third place in the 
keg rolling event and drove on to place third 
in the tricycle race. 

Congratulations also to the judges of the 
Greek Sing who placed last in their event. 

Saturday's intramural track meet also net- 
ted second place for the Phi Sig thinclads. 
Brother Terry Sullivan was number one in 
both the 100 yard dash and the 200 yard 
run while second places were taken by Ed 
Master, discus; Bud Schmader, 120 yard low 
hurdles; Joe Robosky, mile; and Joe Rinaldi, 
John Schmader, Craig McQure and Denny 
Dixon, mile relay, Tom Abaray was third 
in the 100 and the 200 and Denny Dixon 
copped third-place honors in the mile run. 

The Phi Sigs would like to extend a belated 
congratulations to our intramural wrestling 
team which was number one in four weight 
classes. Members of the team who deserve 
special credit are oe Robosky, 123-pound; 
Phil Payne, 130-pound; Tom Abaray, 152 
pound; and Bud Schmader, 167-pound. 

Phil Payne was re-elected as secretary-

ters: Judy Banyas, Edie Bragg, Mimi Hager, 
Lauri Sutinen, Paula Douthett, Lynn Lucci, 
Valerie Danesi, Nancy Way, and Sandra

Special thanks to Elaine Daugherty on her

held on April 21, at Johnny Garneau's. 

Congratulations to our newly-installed of- 
ficers: Kathy Burgeson, president; Peggy 
Ward, vice president; Barb Burford, treas- 
urer; Carol Shugarts, recording secretary;

to Sigma Sigma Sigma. She is retiring this 
year.

Brother Dan Konvolinka. We would also like 
to congratulate the "Delts" for their first- 
place victory and the Theta Chi powder puff 
football team is to be congratulated for their 
fine victory at the Greek games. 

ALPHA GAMMA PHI 

The brothers wish to extend a special 
thanks to Nancy Brendlinger, who was great- 
ly responsible for whatever success we ac- 
hieved in Greek Sing last Friday. 

The winner of the stereo, raffled off today, 
will be announced next Friday in this column. 

ALPHA PSI OMEGA 

The Alpha Upsilon cast of Alpha Psi Ome- 
ga, national honorary dramatics fraternity, 
is holding its Spring initiation of pledges, 
Monday, May 5. Those who show an active 
interest and participation in college theatre 
earn the honor of pledging the Alpha Upsilon 
cast. 

Eligible for pledging this semester are— 
Kathy Barron, Peggy Black, Steve Brezzo, 
Becky Drake, Bobbie Egidi, George Hall, 
Terry Johnson, Raine Martin, Lynn McGa- 
han, Diane Neal, Judy Rosensteel, Willie San- 
ders, John Sandrock, Susie Snyder and Cherie

continues toward the Miss Pennsylvania title. 

Congratulations to director, Ron Reed, and 
the company of the Off Broadway Revue 
for many successful shows. Also special 
thanks to Raine Martin, the choreographer 
for tho show. 

For the past two weeks we've had the 
opportunity of working with Mr. Frank Cole- 
man, New York guest star for Carnival. 
Mr. Coleman is not only a very talented 
man but an all-around great guy. 

Best of luck to Reader's Theatre In White 
America cast as they begin their tour of 
England, May 9. 

ZETA TAU ALPHA 

Now that this busy weekend is over, the 
Zetas are still making plans. These future 
plans include formal initiation, Big-Little Sis 
party, and our annual Mother's Day banquet. 
It's going to be very hectic for the Zetas 
during the next two weeks. 

SIGMA TAU GAMMA 

The Brothers of Sigma Tau Gamma would 
like to commend all Greek organizations for 
their fine showings in Greek Sing and Greek 
Olymoics. Congratulations on a joh well done 
to I.F.C. President Bob Ament for his ex- 
cellent co-ordination of these two events. 

Special thanks go to Brother Art Trages- 
ser, who served as both song leader and 
co-ordinator for our Greek Olympic teams. 
Fortunately, Art proved to be a better pyra- 
mid architect than a conductor, as his coach- 
ing helped the Sig Taus to win the over-all 
Olympic championship. 

Congratulations to pitcher Joe Filipowski 
and outfielder Fred Wickstrom, two brothers 
whose strong play has helped the baseball

Here's the Results 
Of Greek Olympics 

By DICK MEARS 

Sunburn and bruises took their toll this 
year at the Greek* Olympic Games held at 
Memorial Field last Sunday afternoon. Over 
800 students gathered to watch, in awe and 
admiration, the feats of skill performed by 
members of the fraternities and sororities. 
Events included the keg roll, egg throwing, 
and the tricycle relay race. 

First, second, and third place irophies were 
awarded to Delta Zeta, Zeta Tau Alpha and 
Alpha Sigma Tau, respectively. Sigma Tau 
Gamma took first place among fraternities 
while Phi Sigma Epsilon and Alpha Gamma 
Phi tied for second place in the overall frater- 
nity competition. > 

Powder Puffs Play 

f 

With all the excitement and maneuvers 
of a national league football game, the pow- 
der puff football game, held Sunday, kicked 
off the final day of Greek Weekend. 

Bruises from the game were undoubtedly 
more numerous than the combined scores 
of the two teams. The team coached by bro- 
thers of Theta Chi defeated the Alpha Chi 
Rho team by a score of 14-7, 

The only touchdown for the Chi Rho team 
was scored by fullback "Crazy Legs" Candy 
James, Delta Zeta, who trotted downfield 
for six points while quarterback, Jan John- 
ston, Beta Xi Omega, ran for the extra point. 

Peggy Ward, Sigma Sigma Sigma, scored 
the first TD for the Chis during the second 
period and Donna Scopel bulled through the 
line for the extra point. 

The deciding TD came during the third 
quarter when, after a long power drive, Don- 
na Scopel again crossed the goal line. Carol 
Chriiitie, Tri Sig, went for the extra point. 

Members of Phi Sigma Kappa, who offi- 
ciated the game, include Merle Minick, Bruce 
Peters, Jim Pratt, and Lou Vescio. Coaches 
for the winning team were Bill Herbert, Bob 
Ryberg, Doug Shaffer, and Rich Swetlech. 
Coaches John Burt and Frank Larentis led 
the Alpha Chi Rho powder puffers to defeat. 

Al Jacks Views Game 

Al Jacks, Clarion's head football coach, 
in an attempt to recruit players for the Gol- 
den Eagles, viewed the game at the side- 
lines. When asked if he wanted to sign any of 
the players. Coach Jacks commented, "I'm 
thinking about it. There's a couple," 

Human pyramids toppled to the ground 
terminating in people piles of emaciated bod- 
ies. Sigma Tau Gamma took first place in 
the event for elevating five tiers while Alpha 
Gamma Phi placed second. Third place was 
taken by Tau Kappa Epsilon and at the 
bottom of the pile was Alpha Chi Rho. 

Among the first sororities to fowl out in 
the egg throwing contest v/as Delta Lambda 
Tau. While the yoke was on them, the other 
sorority teams wailed eggs back and forth 
until one by one. the eggs were broken and 
all but two teams were eliminated. The Alpha 
Sigma Taus finally won the duel in the last 
volley and Beta Xi Omega came in second 
cackling over a broken egg. 

A favorite event of the day, the keg roll, 
was performed by both fratemitiesi and soro- 
rities. In fraternity competition. Alpha Gam- 
ma Phi took first place, Sigma Tau Gamma 
took second and Phi Sigma Epsilon copped 
third-place honors. In the sorority division, 
the Delta Lambda Taus and the Delta Zetas 
tied for third, Sigma Sigma Sigma rolled for 
second place, and the first-place trophy WenI 
to Alpha Sigma Alpha. I 

Competition was tough in the tricycle race. 
Driving the three-wheelers as fast as "they 
could, the drivers of the Delta Zeta team 
took first place among sororities with the 
Tri Sigs and the Alpha Sigma Taus trailing 
behind for second and third place. 

Among the fraternities, the Theta Xi team 
drove for first place and Alpha Gamma Phi 
pulled in to the finish line second. Phi Sigma 
Epsilon, having been stopped for speeding, 
still managed to win third place in the eyent. 

In the 400 yard relay. Phi Sigma Epsilon 
again was speeding but they weren't about 
to be caught— not this time. Theta Xi was 
across the line for second place and the 
Sig Taus finished third. 

Sororities Make Fine Showing 

The sororities made a fine show in the 
running event also, though theirs was a 240 
yard race. The swift-footed Zetas ate up that 
yardage to win the race while skipping across 
the finish line for second place was a Delta 
Zeta runner. Alpha Sigma Tau tiptoed sUently

Sudden Death Playoff 
Fatal to Panthers 

The Clarion Golfers of Tom Carnahan and 
Les Oakes eked out a close one over the 
University of Pittsburgh Friday at Shannopin 
Country Club, Pittsburgh, downing the Pan- 
thers 4 3 in a sudden death playoff. 

Tied at 3-3 after 18 holes, medalists Wein- 
gartner of Clarion, and Meteney of Pitt, par- 
red the first three holes in the playoff. Wein- 
gartnier parred the fourth and Meteney bog-

Clarion Wins 
Simulation Came 

Clarion captured first place and a silver 
trophy in the seventh annual "Intercollegiate 
Business Simulation Competition" sponsored 
by the college of business administration stu- 
dent council at the Pennsylvania State Uni- 
versity on April 25-26. 

Members of the Clarion team consisted of: 
Don Altman, Frank Brown, Bill Jackson, and 
Tom Teeters; Matthew Marder, instructor 
of business education, was the advisor to 
the team. Clarion defeated Elizabethtown Col- 
lege, Indiana University of, Pennsylvania, 
Drexel Institute of Technology, Shippensburg 
State College, and Duquesne University. 

The simulation game is a relatively new 
educational technique designed to provide 
business students with greater insight into 
and skills in dealing with managerial pro- 
blems in business. Basically, a simulation 
is a mathematical model of a firm operating 
in a specified environment. 

The simulation may be interactive or non- 
interactive. In an interactive simulation, one 
team's decision affects the results of the 
competing teams. In a non-interactive game, 
the teams play only against the environment. 
Their decisions do not affect each other. 

The game used at Penn State was an inter- 
active simulation. Therefore, the Clarion 
team not only had to try and maximize their 
firm's returns but they also had to take 
action to try and minimize the returns of 
their competitors. After ten periods of devas- 
tating play, the Qarion firm was declared 
the winner. 



Dr. Gilbert Twiest, Dr. William Chamber- 
lain and Kenneth Mechling, of the biology 
department, participated as guest speakers 
and group discussion leaders at the Spring 
Conference of the Ohio Council for Elemen- 
tary Science at the University of Akron, April 
26. 

Using the theme, "Science and the Total 
Curriculum," the conference included teach- 
ers from Ohio and- Western Pennsylvania and 
was related to the 25th anniversary of the 
founding of the National Science Teachers 
Association. 

In group sessions covering matiy areas of 
interest, Mechling directed a group studying 
science processes in physical science. Dr. 
Twiest presented possible investigations that 
might be carried out by elementary school 
children in biology, and Dr. Chamberlain wor- 
ked with a group in the relationship of the 
tools of investigation to the concepts and 
processes investigated.

bats Saturday as Clarion swept a double dip 
with Westminster College, 12-4 and 8-1, at

went the rest of the distance as winning 
pitcher. 

In the first game, Bressler hit four for four 
with five RBI's, while Petro hit three for 
five and scored four runs with one RBI. 

Schumacher was the losing pitcher. 

Young was the winning pitcher in the sec- 
ond game, with relief from Martinelli in' the 
sixth. 

Petro's hot hand again gave the Eagles 
two runs and three hits in his three trips to 
the plate. Skrocki copped two runs and three 
RBI's in his four times at bat, while Fred 
Wickstrom blasted the only homerun of the 
day with no one on in the fifth. 

Carter was losing pitcher for Westminster.

CLARION STATE COLLEGE! — CLARION, PENNSYLVANIA 



Friday, May 9, 1969 



Dormitory 
Placement 
Postponed 



students who will be living in dormitories 
next semester have turned in housing carda 
and now await information on student hous- 
ing for the fall of 1969. Though the deans 
of student affairs plan to release information 
as to individual rooms, three factors delay 
student placement: (1) The student teaching 
assignments have not all been made; (2) 
The proposal for off-campus housing for wo- 
men has not yet been ratified; (3) Room 
rates for the 1969-70 term have not yet t>een 
negotiated. 

Sorority Housing Proposal Submitted 

Concern was expressed by independent wo- 
men students over the propasal for sorority 
housing which was j.ubmitted to the Pan- 
Hellenic Council by a committee headed by 
Dorothy Lawry. The proposal was passed 
by Pan-Hel, Women's Interhall Council, Stu- 
dent Senate, a student-faculty committee on 
fraternities and sororities and a sub-commit- 
tee on housing, and will be effective next 
semester. 

The proposal basically provides for the 
housing of two sororities each in Given, Jef- 
ferson, and Ralston Hall, and one in Becht. 
A lottery system was used to decide which 
sororities will be housed where. After this 
initial placement, sororities will rotate dormi- 
tories aljrfiabetically on a yearly basis. New 
dormitories that may be built will also be 
included in the rotation system. The stipula- 
tion to this proposal was that all sororities 
that choose not to accept formal reotation 
shall forfeit the right to occupancy in prefer- 
red dormitories in succeeding years. 

System Favors Non-Greeks 

Dean Betty Reisman explained that this 
system, though apparently unfavorable to in- 
dependents, would, in reality, allow for more 
non-Greek women to live in the better dor- 
mitories since many upperclass sorority wo- 
men would feftaqoisi^ their right to a room 
in order to live with their sisters in a less- 
desired dormitory. Miss Reisman also stated 
that specific blocks would be designated, a^t 
chosen by the Greeks, as sorority suites. 
These would be primarily rooms already oc- 
cupied by sorority women; thus independent 
jimior and senior women would not lose room 
preference due to the establishment of 
a suite. 

Whatever system of room placement is cho- 
sen. Miss Reisman said that every effort 
would be made to place each woman in the 
hall and room she desires with her choice 
of roommate. With a new system of housing, 
it may also be possible for groups of upper- 
classwomen to live together. 

The deans of student affairs will issue a 
flyer explaining the procedure for room selec- 
tion sometime next week. Forms for hall, 
room, and roommate preference will also 
be available to those who have turned in hous- 
ing cards. It is hoped that students may 
be informed of their room assignments before 
the end of the semester.

Nonstudents Cause Trouble 
At Performance of 'Carnival^ 

By CAROLYN WELESKO 



A disturbance was created in Tippin Gym- 
nasium during the production of Carnival 
last Saturdacy night by a group of local men 
who are not associated with the c<^ege. 

Herb Michaels, a member of the cast, 
s^fered an eye injury as a result of the 
incident. It was reported to the Call that 
Mr. Michaels is now pressing charges against 
these men. 

According to John Dorish, also a member 
of the cast, he (Mr. Dorish) was standing 
backstage on the ground floor of Tippin 
Gym between scenes about 11 p.m. Satur- 
day when the men (at least five or six) 
entered the bmlding and directed several 
obseene remarks at Mr. Dorish. 

In an attempt to avoid a scene, Mr. Dorish 
asked the men to leave the buUding. When 
they refused, he guided them out with the 
help of a cane that he was using in the 
performance. 

Several minutes later, a few male mem- 
bers of the cast went outside to make sure 
that the intruders had left the area. They 
were still outside the gymnasium, the police

Faculty Senate 
Has New By-Laws 
And Constitution 

At a meeting of the general faculty a week 
ago today, a new constitution and set of by- 
laws for the Faculty Senate was approved 
by a vote of 100 to 28. The proposal will 
now be referred by President James Gem- 
mell to the board of trustees for action. 

The meeting last week, which lasted slight- 
ly more than two hours, brought to a con- 
clusion the work of a committee consisting 
of Dr. R. Wallace Brewster, Mrs. Margaret 
Buckwalter, Dr. Forest Carter, Dr. James H. 
Ck)le, Dr. William A. McCauley, Dr. Daniel 
K. Shirey, and Eh-. Adam F. Weiss. Dr. Mc- 
Cauley, dean of graduate studies, was chair- 
man, and Dr. Brewster, the president's spe- 
cial assistant on matters of administrative 
structure, was consultant. 

President Gemmell, who presided at the 
meeting, said that the new consituti(Mi, by- 
laws, and schedule for adoption is "a con- 
siderable improvement over the present ar- 
rangement" and should lead to "more faculty 
involvement <rf a truly professional nature." 
He also pointed out that the new {tfHj^Bfltl 
cannot be operative before September .1, 19J0. 

The motiMi by which the faculty approved 
the proposal included a number of amend- 
ments to the committee's report, which was 
distributed to the faculty about April 18. Dur- 
ing the meeting, motions which offered am- 
endments to amendments caused moderate 
confusion and gave the parliamentarians, Dr. 
Roger Hufford and Miss Inez Baker, plenty 
to do. 4 



were notified, and a fight soon thereafter 
erupted. 

The case is now being handled by both the 
college security office and the Pennsylvania 
State Police. Some of the intruders have 
been apprehended; one has not yet been 
found. 

Mr. Dorish embellished his account of the 
incident by directly relating it to the pro- 
duction of Carnival: "Being the owner o£ 
the carnival" (this is the part Mr. Dorish 
played in the show), "one is always con- 
fronted with these drunken disorderlies. Per- 
haps all the gentlemen wanted was to dance 
with the bluebird girls. I explained that the 
carnival was closed and that they should 
come back tomorrow. They refused, got up- 
set, and demanded their money back aj)d 
)lood. Thank goodness the Carnival halt 
jlosed." 

Final Exam Schedule 
Back to What It Was 

The final exam schedule has been changed 
back to its original form. Finals wiU now 
begin on Thursday instead of Saturday, as 
was stated in the Daily Bulletin on Friday, 
AprU 26. 

The two extra days of classes that were 
added to the school calendar have now been 
replaced with finals. The extra days were 
originally added to compensate for the two 
days left free when the exam schedule was 
changed to begin on Saturday. 

The only change that is now in effect is th« 
ruling that professors and instructors can 
no longer give final examinations on the last 
day of class. All finals must now be given 
during the final examination week. 

The change back to the original final sche- 
dule was sparked when a group of interested 
students, consisting of representatives from 
the major student organizations on campus, 
met with Dean Moore on Wednesday, April 
30, to discuss the change. At this meeting, 
it was decided that this issue would be dis- 
cussed with the administrative officers on 
Friday, May 2. 

A group of concerned students also attended 
tiiis second meeting at which time the final 
schedule was changed. 

President Gemmell 
Gets Two New Posts 

Dr. James Gemmell, college president, was 
appointed during April to two posts in which 
he will be concerned with varying phases 
of higher education advancement. 

In a letter from James W. Altman, secre- 
tary of the eastern regional institute for ed- 
ucation. President Gemmell received re-elec- 
tion to a four-year term as a member of 
the councU. 

In a term beginning May 1, 1969, Dr. Gem- 
mell will represent the higher education cate- 
gory of council membership as it pertains 
to bachelor of science and master of science 
degrees. 

Dr. Gemmell was also appointed as an 
advisor to the state board of education in 
i(Bi||Mpraisal of the master plan for higher 
e(kication for the Commonwealth of Pennsyl- 
vania. 

In this instance, Dr. Gemmell was one 
of a select group of leaders from across 
the Commonwealth, both professi(HiaI and 
non-professional, invited to work with a com- 
mittee of the board as assignees to task 
forces named to examine each of the issues 
confronting tjie board in its review of the 
master {dan. 



Blacks Propose Changes 
In Admissions; College 
Presents Fact Sheet 



A proposal\for changes in the admissions 
policy which was adopted recently by the 
Black Student Association of Clarion was 
presented to James Gemmell, president, and 
Walter Hart, director of admissions, on April 
28, and was presented last night to the 
Student Senate. The senate has not yet acted 
on the proposal. 

The proposed changes are printed in to- 
day's CaU. 

Mr. Hart informed the Call that work is 
now being done to recruit black students for 
admission in the fall of 1970. Dean John 
Mellon and a group of representative black 
students from Clarion have been visiting high 
schools to talk to black students about enter- 
ing Clarion in the fall of '70. 



He also stated that admissiocifi for the 
fall of 1969 and January of 1970 have been 
closed for two months. For this reason, no 
additional blacks will be admitted for Sep- 
tember and January. 

In the past, black students have not shown 
much interest in applying to (Tlarion, accord- 
ing to Mr. Hart. He also pointed out that 
color and creed regulations have not been 
in effect here. Black students have been given 
the same opportunity to enter Clarion as any 
other students. 

On the left is the fact sheet prepared by 
the college and made available to the mem- 
bers of the Black Student Association at the 
April 28 meeting. Directly below are the B. 
S. A. proposals. 



Admissions Fact Sheet 

FACT SHEET ON ADMISSIONS AND 
GENERAL ADMINISTRATION POLI- 
CIES AT CLARION STATE COLLEGE 
OF SPECIAL INTEREST TO BLACK 
STUDENTS. 

I. The following policies are in operation, 
most all of them being a matter of es- 
tablished routine: 

1. The extended application deadline cur- 
rently is applied to Black students. 

2. The application fee of $10 currently is 
postponed for disadvantaged Black 
students. 

3. Currently disadvantaged Black stu- 
dents arc asked for the application 
and acceptance fee of $35 only after 
notice of acceptance has been receiv- 
ed. A plan regarding financial needs 
is plarmed concurrently. 

4. In evaluating applications by Black 
students for acceptance, class rank 
and SAT scores are not the sole cri- 
terion for acceptance or rejection. 

5. A personal interview is not required 
for admission. It is the policy of the 
College to invite applicants who apply 
prior to December to tome for an in- 
terview, but this is not a require- 
ment. After December 1, the work 
load of the Admissions staff is too 
heavy to handle individual interviews. 
Since most admissions decisions are 
made after January 15, many stu- 
dents are not interviewed. j 

6. As a public institution, the College has 
always observed the Federal, State, 
and internal regulations prohibiting 
considerations of race, religion, or 
ethnic origins as conditions for admis- 
sion. It does not and cannot, by law, 
require information by writing, by 
question, or by photograph which 
would disclose any information upon 
which discriminatory decisions could 
be made. 

7. As a result of consultations in March 
of 1969 with the Dean of Liberal Arts, 
taken upon the initiative of Black stu- 
dents currently enrolled at Qarion, 
funds have been provided to enable 
them to cooperate with the Admis- 
sions Office in visiting at distant high 
schools with prospective Black stu- 
dents. The first in a series of such 
visits was conducted on April 16 at 
Sharon and FaTrell, followed the next 
week with visits to Penn Hills and 
Wilkin sburg high schools in the Pitts- 
burgh area. Approximately 200 stu- 
dents have already been contacted. 
Additional visits during the remainder 
of this semester are planned for 
Schenley, Fifth Avenue, and other 
Pittsburgh area high schools. 



Proposed fhanges 

Proposed changes in the Admissions pol- 
icy of Clarion State College as proposed 
and adopted by the members of the Black 
Student Association of Clarion State Col-

and the Director of Admissions, Walter 
Hart, on April 28, 1969. 

1. A minimum of 600 Black students be

mum.

deadline which applies for athletes 
also apply for Black applicants. 

8. Black applicants De given an "unequal- 
equal" chance for acceptance; 

(a) College boards are not to be the 
deciding factor for rejection. 

(b) College board levels are to be low- 
ered to admit the late advancing 
student. 

(c) Late applications are not to "be re- 
jected. 

(d) Unfavorable recommendations by

tant Admissions Director whose

THE CALL — Clarion State College, Clarion, Pennsylvania 



Editorially 
Speaking 



KDITOWS FAREWELL 



Editor Ends Term With Confidence, 
Hopes 'Call' Continues as CSC Voice 



With this issue, the weelcly publi- 
cation of the Call comes to a close for 
this year. Once again the Call has 
functioned as the voice of the campus. 
It has, I thinit, been an informative 
publication that has told the .story of 
what has happened throyghout the year. 

Of course every academic and so- 
cial activity on campus has not been 
covered in the Call, but every major 
event has been given adequate cover- 
age, and every major issue has been 
presented in the best possible way. 

However, a student newspaper can- 
not please everyone. The Call has had 
its share of controversies and com- 
plaints; its editorial policy has also 
been challenged. But, for the most 
part, the staff has done their best to 
give the college a worthwhile news- 
paper. 

I believe that the most important 
part of our job has been to inform the 
college conununity of local happenings 
and activities. But this was not our 
only purpose. We have also tried to 
take a stand on pertinent issues, to 
respond to thoughtful issues, and to 
advocate certain changes through edi- 
torials. 

It goes without saying that every 
educational institution has room for 
change. Some of these changes involve 
students alone and others involve only 
administrators. But every change must 
have the same amount of concern and 
interest by each member of the college 
community if it is to be successful. 

The students have, I think, been 
the backbone of each of my editorials. 
When I said that "wp have .student 
power," I meant that we have every 
possible opportunity to make changes 
happen. 

We have seen changes occur in 
disciplinary procedures, in women's 
sign-out regulations, in social activities, 
in student participation in administra- 
tive activities, and in the exam sched- 
ule. However, there are still times 
when I wonder if Clarion isn't still "18 
years behind the times." According 
to the Alonzo Myers article that ap- 
peared in the December 13th issue, we 
still lack the necessary student-faculty 
communications that would help to 
make Clarion a better college. 

We are, too, still plagued with an 
immature card system, a host of mean- 
ingless educational courses, and a man- 
datory housing system for senior wo- 
men students. Perhaps the new edi- 
tor will see changes in 0iese areas, and 
perhaps she will also see changes in 
other equally significant areas. Eigh- 
teen years is a fairly wide gap to fill, 
and no one could expect all of the ne- 
cessary revisions to be made in one 
year. 



' From my own point of view, my 
editorials have satisfactorily achieved 
their purpose. Some results have oc- 
curred; I could not ask for more. As 
far as the ones that have received no 
response are concerned, I can at least 
feel confident that these issues were 
brought to the attention of the Call's 
readers. 

And so it is with this feeling of 
confidence that my term as editor ends. 
It has been a good year for the staff. 
I have sincerely enjoyed the opportun- 
ity to serve the student body in this 
small capacity. The editorship has giv- 
en me many new and rewarding ex- 
periences (and a minimum of bother- 
some ones) that will always be of value 
to me. 

However, I feel that it is necessary 
to point out that no editor, no advisor, 
or no staff member could alone pro- 
duce a satisfactory newspaper. For 
this reason, I would like to thank each 
of the editors, the reporters, and the 
advisor for the fine job they have done 
this year. 

Each staff member has devoted 
many hours to the Call this year— hours 
that can only be measured in the satis- 
faction they must each feel as they 
read their articles that appear in print 
each Friday. They have all worked in 
a reasonably unified way to make the 
Call possible this year. 

And of course, our advisor, Mr. 
Richard Redfern, was always available 
when we needed him for advice and 
general support. I don't think we 
could have managed to get a paper out 
each week without his help. 

1 he readers must also be thanked 
for the part they played by simply be- 
ing readers. We have printed several 
meaningful letters from students and 
faculty members that have expressed 
the interest that many people have tak- 
en ,in both general and personal prob- 
lems. It is this type of concern that 
helps to make a better newspaper. 

In closing, I would like to say that 
I hope the Call continues to be an ef- 
fective campus voice in future years.

Editor, The Call: 

Protesting seems to be a fashion at col- 
leges and universities today; so this letter 
should be in vogue because it is, indeed, 
a letter of protest. It is not entirely for 
ourselves that we protest (for we wUl not 
be affected by these changes in any event), 
but, it is for the hundreds of present fresh- 
man and sophomore women whose housing 
assignments for the forthcoming year will 
be affected by these changes. 

Plans have been made, unbeknown, we be- 
lieve, to the majority of women students, 
for the establishment of sorority suites in 
Becht, Jefferson, Given, and Ralston. Per- 
haps we are mistaken, but wasn't the pro- 
Diem of sororiiy nousmg supposedly perman- 
enUy settled in the Spring 1967 when it was 
established that the only sorority "blocks" 
or "suites" would be in Forest Manor? Or 
is it that the new dean of women's housing 
is more yieidmg to sorority pressures than 
the last? 

The major complaint which should be 
voiced is that the independent women are 
not informed or consulted concerning these 
proposed plans; in fact, it seems they were 
most cautious in keeping the independents 
from knowing until the plans were accepted 
by the administration— then it would be too 
late to do anything. 

The Student Senate, our representative (?) 
body, did indeed do justice to the wishes 
of all women .students when they recently 
accepted these sorority-proposed housing 
plans. It's too bad that these women who 
were so well represented knew nothing of 
the goings-on. 

Perhaps it's too late to effect any changes, 
but we'd like to thank the sorority women 
for being so open with their fellow women 
students— after all, we can quote them as 
saying, "We are women students first, and 
sorority women .second." 

MARY LOU EASLEY, 
KATHY PEGNETTER and 
BETSY TURNER 

'Privilege* Granted 

Editor, The Call: 

Recently the sororities on this dampus have 
been granted the privilege of being allowed 
to live, in suites beginning this coming Sep- 
tember. I use the word "privilege" because 
it certainly is one and the Greek women 
realize this. But while we have been granted 
this privilege, we hope that the independent 
women understand the basis of the original 
proposal so that they will not feel as if 
they are being slighted in any way. 

Due to the limited amount of time and 
the impracticality of taking such a proposal 
directly to the women students, it was taken 
to Women's Interhall Ck>unci] instead. It is 
the job of this organization to study such 
proposals, weigh the pros and cons, and act 
oa them with the best interests of all women 
students in mind. All women students voted 
to elect the representatives to this CkHincil 
and should have confidence in their decisions. 
Women's Interhgll Council endorsed the pro- 
posal unanimously (it is interesting to note 
that there were more independent .,«i«ea 
on the Council than Greeks). ^^. 

Under this new system of housing sorori- 
ties, suites will rotate every year so that 
no sorority will live in the same dormitory 
two years in a row. This rotation of suites 
will not drastically effect the independent 
woman's housing preference for two main 
reasons. 

First of all, whether tliere are sorority 
suites or not, about 30 percent of the women 
students living in Becht, Given, Jefferson, 



Faculty, Convenient Scapegoat, 
Does Not Deserve All the Blame; 
Lecture System Has Its Merits 



and Ralston halls will be sorority women 
anyway, if the sorority women were equally 
distributed among these dormitories. What 
difference should it make if this 30 percent 
are in seven different sororities or in only 
one or two different sororities? 

Independents' Housing Pre'erence 
Will Not Be Affected 

Secondly, under this new system, junior 
and senior sorority women merely agree to 
give up their housing preferences to sopho- 
more sorority women. For example, I will 
be a senior next year. Instead of putting 
down Ralston Hall as my first choice as 
I would have if there were no sorority suites, 
I will put down Jefferson Hall if my Sorority 
ends up there. This will permit a sophomore 
in another sorority which has ended up in 
Ralston to have my preference. It is quite 
obvious, I think, that this will not effect 
in any way the housing preference of an 
independent woman. What difference does it 
make if I occupy that room in Ralston or 
a sophomore in another sorority occupies it? 
This has nothing whatsoever to do with the 
independent woman's housing preference. In 
fact, if there are sorority suites, there is 
a greater chance for more sophomore in- 
dependent women to get in better dormitories 
earlier because, since there is not nearly 
a one-to-one relationship between the number 
of Greek juniors and seniors who are willing 
to relinquish their housing preferences and 
the number of .sophomore Greek women who 
would benefit from this, those extra spaces 
would necessarily be filled wiUi sophomore 
independent women. 

Another point that I feel is appropriate 
to bring up is the fact that, simply because 
of their smaller numbers, groups of inde- 
pendent women who wish to live together 
usually can because they request adjoining 
rooms or rooms on the same floor in the 
same hall and get them. It is unrealistic 
for a sorority with its much larger number 
of friends to try to get on one floor or even 
in one hall. But why should Greeks not have 
an equal opportunity to live with their close 
friends as independents do? 

Suites to Be Carefully Located 

Many independent women are concerned 
about the fact that they may be ousted from 
rooms which they have preference to because 
they have lived in them before. Those in 
charge of college housing are making every 
effort to locate the sorority suites in places 
where there are already sizeable concentra- 
tions of sorority women and/or graduating 
.seniors Bo that this problem will be min- 
imized. 

I realiie that several years ago sororities 
had suites in Ralston and Given Halls which 
were quite unfair because they were mono- 
polizing two of the so-called better dormitories 
on campus and because sophomore sorority 
women were getting housing preference over 
independent junior and senior women. These 
suites were eliminated and rightfully should 
have been. But the bad taste that Uiis situa- 
Uon left in the mouths of the administration 
and the independent women can be relieved, 

^ *!»![• -^^ ^'^ °^"' system which is fair 
to fiverypne. 

When so many different groups including 
the Committee of Fraternities and Sororities, 
the Subcommittee on Housing, Women's In- 
terhall Council, and even Student Senate have 
studied the proposal and endorsed it, I feel 
that it must have some merit and, if pro- 
perly understood, illustrates its fair nature. 

DOROTHY LA WRY, Chairman of the 
Pan Hellenic Housing Committee 



In the April 18 issue of the Cafl, 
an editorial was written charging the 
faculty with "overwhelming stagna- 
tion" and causing "student apathy." 

Although I must agree that some 
professors I have taken courses from 
weren't stimulating, I feel the majority 
were stimulating, had many worthwhile 
ideas to present, and were good teach- 
ers. 

It was stated that the students get 
enough sleep and aren't suffering from 
iron poor blood. I must take issue 
with these statements because I lived 
in a dormitory for four years and I 
know students don't get enough rest. 
I have had many Clarion students tell 
me they stay up until the early hours 
of the morning. 

Furthermore, I look into too many 
tired faces every day to believe stu- 
dents get enough sleep. I also have 
observed students' eating habits. Many 
don't eat the proper foods at the proper 
times. These two factors, I feel, con- 
tribute to student disinterest in the 
classroom. 

I fail to see what is wrong with 
professors using the same lectures more 
than once. First of all, the same stu- 
dents aren't hearing the same lecture 
twice unless they are repeating the 
course-^in which case, maybe they 
need to hear the lecture for a second 
time. 

Secondly, it takes several hours to 
prepare a 50-minute lecture. Profes- 
sors simply don't have the time to com- 
pletely revise their courses each se- 
mester. 

Thirdly, certain principles must be 
communicated each semester unless 
subject matter has changed or new text- 
books communicating a different ap- 



proach or new subject matter are being 
used. Many professors will update ex- 
amples to support principles which are 
taught. 

It is true there are better methods 
of teaching than the lecture system. 
Discussion, theoretically, is superior 
and more stimulating, but not as much 
material can be covered in this manner. 
In addition, many times, information 
discussed is not correctly worded by 
the student when written down. This 
often leads to misunderstanding. 

It must also be noted that when 
students haven't read assigned mater- 
ial, the discussion isn't stimulating and 
fails. The professor usually ends up 
doing most of the talking and all he 
gets from the students is either silence 
or wrong responses. If students don't 
have proper background information, 
a discussion isn't profitable. Many 
times, there are too many students in 
a class to even consider a teaching 
method other than the lecture system. 
Many professors do ask their stu- 
dents to anonymously evaluate the 
course and the professor at the end of 
the semester. If intelligent criticisms 
are made by several students, the pro- 
fessor can hardly ignore them. We 
do have consciences and professional 
standards. It is wrong to assume that 
the' faculty doesn't care. One of the 
primary reasons for becoming a teach- 
er is to be a part of student growth and 
maturity in the educational process. 

And so I ask you to take another 
look at yourselves. Does all the blame 
really belong where you have conven- 
iently placed it?

Campus Kaleidoscope 



By SHERRY LEHMAN 

An article in the Temple News, April 11, 
1969, reviewed an address of the American 
Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) to the leaders 
of college communities throughout tlie coun- 
try. The ACLU called on students engaged 
in campus demonstrations to "return to 
peaceful, non-obstructive forms of protest,." 

The ACLU warned against the detrimental 
results of violent action on the part of pro- 
testing students, results not only harmful to 
the college or university, but harmful to the 
general framework of the national university 
structure. 

CriUcism was not limited to the students 
alone: "At the same time the ACLU criUcized 
colleges and universities for stifling campus 
discontent by refusing to consider student 
demands or involve students in the decision- 
making process, and who have frequently 
attended to financial and organizational mat- 
ters in preference to legitimate academic, 
moral, and human considerations." 

The ACLU is calling upon the academic 
community to find new, nonviolent modes 
of communication and decision-making which 
are responsive to just demands that students 
express. 

New Exam System Suggested 

The Slippery Rock Rocket published an 
article by Ron Thomp.son of the Canadian 
University Press in conjunction with the Col- 
lege Press Service (CUP-CPS) enUtled "Bet- 
ter Learning Through Better Exams." The 
article began rather startlingly by calling 
for "an organized conscious campaign of 
cheating for the spring exams." ("Cheating" 
being a unique new method of discussion 



examinations, not the outmoded "pony" me- 
thod. Also suggested besides the new exam 
system was building up rapport with profes- 
sors by sleeping with them if possible . . . 
but this is multiple cheating, and particular- 
ly difficult in co-ed classes.) 

The article suggests a radical new ap- 
proach to examination procedures, but that 
it be renovated to correlate with the times. 
As the author implies, learning comes from 
many sources outside of professional lectures. 
Books, friends, mass media— everything we 
see or hear teaches us and instills new know- 
ledge. Therefore, why not have tests where 
the examinees get together and decide the 
answers to the questions through discussion? 

Hardly Seems To Be Cheating 

Thompson states in his article that "this 
hardly even seems to be cheating, the more 
I think about it. Because what you have 
put down is what you have just learned 
through discussion, and that's what the exam 
is supposed to be measuring." Professors, 
parents, friends— anyone could be a valid 
source of information, and no time limits 
need be imposed. 

The amusing conclusion to this article is 
that since everyone would participate toge- 
ther in examination discussions, all the ans- 
wers would be correct, and all the grades 
would be high all the time, and thus re- 
cords need never be kept, and IBM data 
and all the rest need not be employed. Mr. 
Thompson happily states, "We'd just have 
parties for everyone who had been here a 
few years and had learned a lot and put 
flowers around their necks and call them 
B.A.'s. (Or maybe we could even think of 
something nicer to call each other.)

Freedom- Straggle Portrayed - 

[in White America," written by Martin 
Iberman, is a historically documented play 
Icerning the struggle for freedom and the 
bial evolution of the Negro in the United 
fctes from the days of slavery to the pre- 
jit time. The play is a true and vivid ac- 
unt of the complex chain of events from 
nerica's racial past which has erupted into 
^ay's social crisis. 

pe Clarion Readers first performed "In 
fiite America" in the fall of 1967 at the 
Dual Oral Interpretation Festival at Tern- 
University in Philadelphia. At Temple, 
received invitations to appear at the 
tstern States Speech Association Convention 
I New York City in March 1968, and at 
itztown State College in April. Also,^ an 
pitation for a paid performance at Suffolk 
Immunity College in Long Island, New 
frk, was extended for May 1968. 

Standing Ovations Received 

e Readers received standing ovations 
im almost every audience for which they 
rformed. Their audiences were greatly di- 

sified: including high school and college 
idents, auxiliary groups, and a convention 
Episcopalian ministers. That they received 
inding ovations from so many varied au- 
nces is in itself a tribute to the rare 
ality of the Readers' production. One mem- 
of the troupe stated that "Never, at 
performance during the two-month tour 
arch and April 1969) did I hear a single 
)r comment concerning our production, on- 
constant praise." 

lie idea of the three-week tour of British 
lools was conceived by Mr. David Christie-

was overwhelmed by the commanding 
formance of the Readers in the College

i locations, but he is also providing lodg- 

for the cast at his home, "Marston Lod- 

in Middlesex, England. According to a 
ease sent out in March by Dr. Hardwick,

the British students in better understand- 

the racial problems that exist not only 
the U.S. but also in England." 



added. Even so, the original tour was sche- 
duled for six weeks, but had to be cut in 
half due to monetary problems, and wUl now 
run from May 10 to 31. 

Performance Dates Arranged 

Below is a list of the dates and locations 
of the Readers Theatre tour in England: 

May 11— Harrow School, May 15— Students 
of the Royal Free Hospital, May 16— Bedford 
College, May 18— Harrow Council of Church- 
es, May 19— Central School of Speech and 
Drama, May 21— Peckham Comprehensive 
School, May 23— Merchant Taylor's School, 
May 25— Queenswood School, May 28— Guild- 
hall School of Mu-sic and Drama, May 30— 
Architectural Association Students' Union. 

No dates yet— University College, London, 
and Regent Street, Polytechnic. More dates 
may still be added to this schedule. 

The tour has been a struggle to get organ- 
ized, but it should be a great success and 
a credit to the Clarion State College Readers 
Theatre. "In White America" is great be- 
cause it is a rare combination of the right 
performers and the right material at the 
right time in an era of new awareness. 




\ eiiango News 

SPSEA Meeting Held 

On April 29, Mrs. Leanna Lewis of the 
Oil City Junior High School was the guest 
speaker at the Venango Campus meeting 
of Student Pennsylvania State Education Asso- 
ciation. Mrs. Lewis spoke on what to expect 
in student teaching from the cooperating 
teacher's point of view. 

Mrs. Lewis' main point was that of res- 
ponsibility. Mrs. Lewis in the past has been 
a cooperating teacher for Clarion, and she 
shared with the Venango students her ex- 
periences v/ith student teachers. 

The meeting was concluded with the election 
of next year's officers. Those elected were: 
Cindy Hunter, president; Mary Lou Byers, 
vice president and program chairman; Linda 
Lacney, treasurer; Vicki Lockhart, secre- 
tary; and Becky Sheavly, membership and 
publicity chairman. A joint installation-char- 
tering meeting will be held on May 14. 

Concert Scheduled 

Next Wednesday the Venango chorus will 
present its final concert of the semester in 
the student union. Larry Landis, the choral 
director, has chosen a varied program to 
be performed. 

Highlights among the selections include 
Randall Thompson's Alleliua and the Kyrie 
from Schubert's Mass in G. 

Selected madrigals from Thomas Moriey 
plus specially selected folk songs and spir- 
ituals will also be on the program. 



Moses to Speak at Services 

Dr. Elbert R. Moses, Jr., head of the speech 
and dramatic arts department, and retired 
Lieutenant Colonel in the U.S. Army Signal 
Corps, will be the principal speaker for Mem- 
orial Day services sponsored by Shearer- 
Shick American Legion Post 454, Rimersburg. 

Chemistry Society Members 
Attend Meeting at Indiana 

Four members of the student affiliate chap- 
ter of the American Chemical Society— Hen- 
ry Hough, Jon Johnston, Terry McAninch 
and Donald Rupnik, and the faculty adviser 
for the organization, Dr. Paul Beck— attended 
the regional meeting of the student affiliate 
chapters of the Pittsburgh section of the Am- 
erican Chemical Society which was held at 
Indiana University of Pennsylvania last Sat- 
urday. 

Eight research papers were presented by 
students on topics ranging from investigation 
of neurological spinal fluids to studies on 
iron meteorites. Dr. Stephen Quigley, head 
of the office of public affairs of the Ameri- 
can Chemical Society, was guest speaker. 
He spoke on the involvement of chemists 
in the social problems of today.

at the Bibliotheque Nationale. 

Mrs. Roussel-Pesche will briefly visit Flo- 
rence, Siena, Venice and Brescia in Italy, 
Aix-en-Provence, France and Lucerne, Swit- 
zerland before returning to Clarion. - 

Fellowship at Pitt 
Awarded to Sauvage 

Lawrence Sauvage, associate professor of 
special education, was recently awarded a

Three Students 
Found Guilty 
Of Misdemeanor 



By SANDY DIESEL 

On Tuesday evening, three students rarol- 
led at Clarion were found guilty of di,sorderly 
conduct in the Modem Diner. The three stu- 
dents were Jim Mitchell, Joe Panichelle, and 
Jack McGowan. The incident occurred at ap- 
proximately 11:30 Wednesday, April 30. 

The incident began when the three students 
entered the diner and sat down at the third 
table in the middle aisle. After waiting a few 
moments, they shouted for service. A wait- 
ress asked them to quiet down which they 
did after a few moments. Approximately two 
minutes later two Clarion policemen, entered 
and asked the students to leave with them. 

The three students were then charged with 
disorderly conduct because they were ac- 
cused of disturbing others by pounding on 
the tables and by using obscene language. 

Thursday evening. May 1, a hearing was 
held at which the defendants were permitted 
to testify in their behalf. The Commonwealth 
had three witnesses; Mrs. Betty Knarr, a 
waitress at the Modem Diner who also pres- 
sed the charges; the arresting officer; and 
a man from Arizona who witnessed the in- 
cident. 

Mr. Mitchell acted as the spokesman for 
the defendants, but all of the defendants and 
their witnesses had the opportunity to speak 
on their behalf. Miss Carolyn Welseko, editor 
of the Call, and Miss Sandy Diesel, i^ws 
editor of the Call, Were among the witnesses 
that testified on the behalf of the three stu- 
dents. 

"The defendants were given every opportun- 
Uf to "defend themselves, but from this re- 
liorter's point of view the hearing was one- 
sided. All of the legal procedures were never 
fully explained at ttie beginning of the hear- 
ing. For example, the method of questioning 
the Commonwealth's witnesses was never 
mfntioned. Because of this oversight on the 
p*t of the justice of the peace, certain per- 
tinent facts could not be introduced. 

The man who testified for the Common- 
wealth could only testify on what he heard 
and not what he saw, because he was sit- 
ting with his back to the students. But never- 
theless, his testimony appeared to be quite 
decisive in deciding the final decision be- 
cause he stated that he did hear language 
"that should not be repeated in the presence 
of ladies." The two Call editors were sitting 
at a booth across from the defendants and 
they stated that they did not hear any ob- 
scene language. 

It was also pointed out that the editors 
were much closer to the accused students 
than the witnesses for the Commonwealth. 
However, their testimony and the testimonies 
of the other witnesses on behalf of the stu- 
dents did not appear to have much effect 
on the decision of the justice of the peace. 

Editor's Note: The above incident that oc- 
curred in downtown Clarion describes a ty- 
pical arrest of "delinquent" college stu- 
dents. The students of this college have of- 
ten remarked that the townspeople have 
frequently shown resentment towards stu- 
dents. One student stated that "a resident 
of Clarion would not have been found guilty 
for the same offense." 

It is difficult to say whether or not this 
student's remark is justified, but some 
parts of this particular case seem to pmnt 
in. that direction. In the future, it is advis- 
able for the administration to step in to 
defend students if necessary. The students 
are entitled to the support of this college 
when they are in trouble (especially if they 
are unjustly accused).

EXERCISE 

YOUR 

"WILL' POWER 



I will switch toTampax tampons, 
the internal sanitary protection 
that outsells all others combined. 

I will ride a bike, swim, play 
tennis, dance . . . and do my daily 
exercises every day of the month 
if I wish. 

I will no longer worry about the 
discomfort and inconvenience 
of sanitary napkins, pins and 
belts. 

I will be more relaxed and 
confident in any situation 
because Tampax tampons can't 
show or cause odor. 

I will be completely comfortable 
because Tampax tampons can't 
be felt when they're properly in 
place.
