but had to be extended to Tuesday

in order to bring out the two-third«

majority vote necessary for amend* ing the constitution.

Cal Atwood, present student body president, stated: “The amendment as it is now being executed will not be as effective this year as is hoped it will be in the future. The reason for this is that the election in March will precede only a very few of the fraternity and sorority election̂ thus minimizing its effect.

“Next year, with good coordi­nation between sorority and fra­ternity group« and 8EC, the elec­tion date can be moved into early February. By asking the Greek groups to postpone their elec­tions until SEC elections are com­pleted, the major purpose of tho referendum will be carried out. The most outstanding people will then be channeled into student government Instead of being in­volved in the individual groups." Atwood announced that presiden*

tial candidates may submit their pe- titions next Monday, February 18. They must contain 50 signatures. Candidates must have their plat­forms drawn up and submitted by March 4.

'The Great Park House Exodus/ An Epic Saga of Brave Womenbjr Barbara Brooks

Today we bring you the epic sa­

ga of the Fox River Valley — a

story of courage amid hardships,

of success in the face of almost

insurmountable obstacles — the

thrilling tale of 'The Great Park

House Exodus.’*

Our story begins when these fif­

teen courageous women were told they must leave their happy home, their warm fireplaces, their huge rooms. Alone in the cruel, cold world, they must forsake all these comforts and journey far to the south to the land of the screeching radiators, the cell-like rooms, the creaking floors — known to the natives as Ormsby.

There followed many long weeks of preparation and confusion. All their precious possessions must be carefully packed Long lost mit tens were discovered under the beds: at least seven pairs of shoes were found under one rug. Some­times, during these hectic weeks, there were threats of mutiny, ar

Karl Priebe Shows Painting Techniques At Art Center Sunday

Karl Priebe, a Milwaukee artist, painted a demonstration picture at a meeting of the Lawrence art as­sociation on Sunday, February 10, at the Worcester art center After the demonstration cotfee was serv­ed. and those attending the meet­ing had the opportunity to speak with Priebe.

An exhibit of the casein tempera paintings of Karl Priebe Is now on display at the art center. The paint­ings will be shown throughout Feb­ruary. The subjects of the paint­ings include mysterious dark-skin­ned people, unicorns, giraffes, oka­pis, and weasels. The paintings have a dreamlike quality.

Priebe is a member of the fac­ulty at Layton art school in Mil­waukee. He studied at both the Chi­cago art institute and Layton art school.

‘But I want to stay with my

“Gosh, the rooms are ao small!”

“What if I fall aut of the top

bunk?”

“Do the radiators really ex­

plode?”But, slowly, relentlessly, the

days moved on until the fateful morning of — Moving Day. Long lines of displaced persons loaded with heavy bundles trudged slow­ly across the campus. A bright red truck scurried back and forth with clothes racks. A steady pro­cession of bulletin boards moved along on their owners’ shoulders.

Scenes of tense drama occurred when some precious object w as discovered missing or broken; cries of joy greeted each familiar possession as it was unwrapped.

“Oh, no, ‘Tell Me Why’ got brok­en!”

“So did ‘A Kiss to Build a Dream On.’ What can we play now?”

“I can’t find my long blue dog.” “Where did I put my favor

from the pledge formal?”“How can I make a bed when

there aren’t any blankets?”Then came the arduous task of

“making a home” — the same task which countless other pioneer women before them had accomp­lished.

“But the drapes are pink and my spreads are red.”

“Don’t you like chartreuse and purple together?”

“There isn’t room for anything else under the bed.”

“Do I have to sleep with these skis?”

“It looks so nice with those orange crates on the bed.”

Soon, however, all was settled— rugs were down, drapes were up,

girls were out. The saga of “The Great Park House Exodus” was drawing to a close. There remained but one finishing touch. Slowly, carefully, there was hung (from the molding, of course) a small plaque read­ing, “There’s no place like home.”

Mr. Riker Participates In Open Forum Meeting

Mr. William Riker participated in an open forum at a meeting of the League of Women voters on Thursday evening, February 14, at the Presbyterian church. Riker, professor of government at Law­rence, is taking a leave of absence at present while working under a Ford Fellowship.

On the forum with Riker was As­semblyman Mechior, Outagamie county, first district. Moderator was Mrs. Franklin Grist. Their subject was the re-apportionment of the State’s legislature. Riker gave the background and theory of the question. Mechior spoke on the pros and cons of the question.

for this deadline and one hundred

By JINGOAs we go to press we find many oi the Greek clubs undergoing up­

And, speaking of "work’' weeks, the Delta bounced off of Pro with quite a bang last week-end. Not only were Delts and dates regaled with baked ham and roast beef, but a most unique form of entertainment was provided when the Pledges were snatched from their dates arms and told to get down to “work”.

Varsity, JV Teams to Meet Ripon Redmen

Tomorrow's Showdown Promites Excitement

Tomorrow night the Lawrence

college vanity and junior varsity

teams will travel to Ripon where both teams will make their final appearances against each other this season. The varsity and JV iared very well against Ripon in their last meeting at Alexander gym De­cember IS. The varsity won a thril­ler 52-31. The JV team defeated their JV team in an overtime 39- M

Since their last meeting both varsities have had their ups and downs. In its last outing Ripon was soundly trounced by LaCrosse Stale college, and Lawrence upset » highly rated Wabash team. All won and lost records are thrown out the window when these two

colleges meet, for everything else is forgotten when these bitter riv­als come together.

The game will probably be rated a toss-up with the team taking ad­vantage of the breaks coming out on top. Since their lsst meeting Pat Casperson has become eligible, and he adds backcourt strength to the Ripon attack.

Although both the Ripon and Lawreaee line-ups have changed lately, this is the probably start­ing line-op:

istically with dark and morbid greens, blacks and no lights or re­

lief." . . . Joshua Loth Uebman in

“Peace of Mind."

You and I are vacillating between

these two rooms in our personality

We are aware of our ability to be kind, to do good, and to “love our

neighbor," and we are aware that

in the next room hang our jealous­ies, our hatreds, our desires to be

petty, cheap and immoral. In our

passing from one room to the other

—like alternating between night and

day—we become confused and inde­

cisive; we lose contact with our

■elves and begin to turn outward seeking answers that do not exist there.

Many of us attended the Religion In-Life conferences because we were looking for answers. We won­dered why we were capable of the very highest thoughts and the very

basest emotions; we wondered why

we wanted to believe in God but

could not.

We sought proof and we sought a

painless way to rationalize what we

believed and what we wanted to be­lieve. We wanted to be told that we

were essentially good and that we

did not love our fellows. We want­

ed to stand in the room where our virtues were hanging on the wall

and have them pointed out; we

wanted to forget that there was an<

other room.

And after the conference waa •ver, after the speech««, ser­

mons, and many discussions had ended, we still did nst have ««r answers. We still vacillated fro« room to room—ashamed ef Me and insecure In the other. Many •f is were aggravated, discourag­ed and even more eenfnsed. We had gotten answers, hut they were not the final answers—not THE answer.It was then that many of us real

ized something we actually knew already—something we had found out before. No matter how dynamic the speaker, no matter how power­ful the personality, no matter how wise the men with whom we talked were, they could not tell us how to believe. They shared their own experience with us and they told us to love God, to do good, and to love our fellows, but they did not tell us how. Their words, their very pres­

ence only indicated to us that it was

possible. It could de done.And this brings us to the theme

of the Religion-In-Life conference.

No matter how much we learn of

religion through our reading or

from great personalities such as those men who visited us last week,

in the final analysis religion is an

individual matter. We must even­

tually turn inward and make peace

with ourselves; learn to accept our­selves for what we are; stand be­tween the two rooms and look at each as an intergral part of the other and as Liebman suggests, paint a new portrait.

We must accept ourselves as we are and recognise sur evil in order that we may fuse it with our power to do good and to ‘lave our neighbor." In the two rooms rest the power to huild ss well aa destroy. With the help of our re­ligion we must learn to synthe­sise these powers.Most of us are making the mis­

take of turning outward to find our answers. We sre making the an­swers of Dr. Thurman, Dr. Brown, and Reverend Kiely our answers We are using their knowledge as an end in itself rather than as a means to our own complete under­standing of ourselves.

I believe that one thing all of the men who visited our campus during the Religion-In-Life conference had in common was a self knowledge. (That is what made Thurman dy­namic—he was a man with a mes­sage.) They had made peace with themselves by facing their own de­ficiencies and inadequacies—solv­

from the editorial board

the sing can still be sungOn Saturday, May 10th, Lawrence will experience ita first full-scale

Carnival, sponsored by Mortar Board and engineered by Jack Willey.In order to plan and work on the Carnival committee, the members

of the Mortar Board found it necessary to discontinue their part in the annual Greek Songfest. We would like to answer a few questions that resulted from this action.

The Songfest has been a feature of the Lawrence spring-time activi­ties program for three years. The receipts in the Mortar Board's treas­urers notebook show that, while the fraternity and sorority sing has provided an enjoyable evening of entertainment for those participating, not an exceptionally large crowd was ever drawn. In spite of this fact, however, the precedent of three years has established a custom that some students do not want to see abolished.

In a petition la the faculty and administration for approval of the earnlval plans Mortar Board volunteered to replace the Son gf eat with the Carnival. This caused many to wonder If, when the ideas were accepted and permission waa given ta carry them through, no ather group or groups would be allowed to make plana for the -Sing.”Upon investigation we have discovered that Mortar Board only with­

drew their part In the Songfest to be able to work with the Carnival tommittee. The fraternity and sorority sing, then, will not be held this year only for each of “chairmen,”

Should any group, for instance, the social committee, pan-hellenic and Ihe inter-fraternity councils, or Mace, wish to sponsor the annual Song­fest this year we’d like to urge them to do so. The only problem, we understand, is to manage to find a date on the school calendar.

keep off the grassSome campus ski enthusiasts have balked at the restriction on using

ihe union hill for skiing. This is only normal since it was the ski enthusiasts who cleared rocks and debris from that hill last winter to make it usable.

However, there is an excellent reason behind the ordinance. This aummer the hill was graded, seeded and sod was laid, all with con­siderable work and expense. The pressure of snow and ice alone is likely to smother the new grass. The additional pressure of skiers would be a sure damager.

This winter's ski enthusiasts will have to coniine their activities to ttie Ormsby hill and look forward to a rewarding view in the spring Next year both trees and restrictions will be removed and skiing will |>e permitted as before.

Laat Sunday night, while sitting

in my room I was called across

the hall by a fraternity brother.

He was listening to Whittaker

Chamber« reading Ihe letter which

prefaces his new book, “I Was the

Witness.’*

In a moving voice, pathetic,

though restrained, he explained to

his children and to the world, his

life — and existence which is to

most of us Inexplicable in its con-

spiritorial shadows and macabre

double lives. He tells why he broke

with communism and why in a se­

cure comfortable position in life,

he chose to risk all that most of

us hold dear to quietly tell all he

knew about American communism,

thereby implicating himself in the

tangled and ugly maze of deceit

and dishonor that communist con­

nections inevitably entail.

The appeal that communism

poaea for modern men must be

understood before It ean be ef­fectively combaitted. This appeal must be underatood by more than just ex-communists or western ci­vilisation tottering in ita crisis will not have the apirltual and In­tellectual resource* It needa to ward off the thruat of its great enemy.We will be disarmed and help­

less until we recognize that to ac­cept materialism in its Godless form necessarily leaves us with lit­tle more than a conventional gloss of propriety and decency covering a vacuous void, a void which com­munism is only too willing to fill If we are dedicated to no more than a supine, cringing desire to preserve our material well-being, we are plastic and pusillanimous putty for the ruthless “vision” of communism.

"Man does not live by bread alone," and when he 4iiea he amply justifies Chambers' des­cription: "Man without God la Just what communism aald he waa — the moat Intelligent of the anímala; man without Gad la a beast, never more beaatly than when he la most Intelligent about his beastliness.'*Whittaker Chambers’ book is be­

ing serialized in the "Saturday Eve nlng Post." This letter appears in the February 9th issue. Read it — you will be rewarded.

Everywhere — over the entire campus we observe an excess of spooning. Young love seems to be growing like a weed. Such immor­al performances as have taken place on our campus must come to a halt.

A girl should not allow men to kiss her and make love to her until they are engaged. Let us remem­ber our Christian principles and resolve "No spooning for Lawren* tians".

'You're blowing too hard.'

melting potBy Nell Msrahall

Believing that this column will be

my senior saga or the essence of

four years at Lawrence, I have

searched these years intensively to

find some significant insight to give

to the several readers of this back

page, and the result of this in

trospection has been rather meager. There is, however, one gleaning which I sincerely feel to be of the utmost importance to those stu­dents now in college and especial­ly to those who will enter school soon.

The heart of this insight is that your education at Lawrence will only be a success if you become an active participator in it. After four years of college, I have become in­creasingly aware of the fact that a good education hinges upon the close cooperation between the stu* dent and the faculty.

Although not very profound, the fact still remains that a good education can only be obtained if the pupil and Ihe profeaacr co­operate ta achieve an under* standing of the preblema of a course and aa understanding af each ether. Both of theae human factors have gat te meet intel­lectually apd socially hi order te actively peel experiencea from which Ihe real value of educa­tion precedes. Te offer yourself Is te participate actively In our school life; te offer yourself Is Ihe mark of an educated peraon.Too often I have seen students

who believed that becoming edu­cated la synonymous with attend­ing college, and 1 have also seen these same people receive absolute­ly nothing for their money. A col­lege student can’t be a casual ob- server of aubject matter, hoping mystically to become saturated with meaning and knowledge; it just doesn’t work.

Let’s destroy the belief that a good education can be achieved merely by taking good notes and answering questions. There are too •many “not-taking and test-passing robots’’ In our college now and not enough eager participate« posses­sing an intellectual curiosity who are searching for the meaning of the notes and the logic of the ques­tion. Professor and student alike are cheating each other if either one refuses to seek co-operatively the truth. If the teacher believes that his job is solely to impart fact and fury to the “student rab­ble," then he is worse than no pro­fessor at all. On the other hand, if the students expect to become educated and mature by absorbing this same fact and fury, then he too is sadly mistaken. Each one must work to understand each other’s meanings, interpretations, and con­tributions to the learning job.

A spirit of compromiae and co­operation haa to be Instilled with­in thla college in order to ralae Ita educational standards. Let’s alwaya remember that we are here to learn and develop our personalities and that learning alU only precede efficiently when this same co-operative spirit exists. The amount of student and college development varies pro- I

portionately with the amount of

co-operation between the two.

A student at Lawrence has got to

change, mature, and widen his in­

terests. If he doesn’t, then he and Lawrence have failed.

Hence every student must lend himself to all these things according to his choice and interest. All of us must utilize the opportunities the college provides in order to become participate« in education. But the administration must also allow the students the right to devise some of their own activities from which their total educational experience may benefit. If we fail, what dam­age is done? To quote an obvious source, education begins with fail­ure.

If the major pointy of this article can be summed up', it is in the form of a challenge. Students! take a part in your own education. But 1 want to dispell the thought that a participater is* a joiner or a mem- orizer. To be a true participater in education is to be a student who genuinely wants to gain physical and mental maturity by means of hard work.

Peraonal desire for education should be the chief character­istic of a college student, and par­ticularly of a Lawrence college student. Thla type ef atudent will wisely ehoooe his college exper­iences lo coincide with his Inter­ests and abilities Instead ef aelect- iug them an the basis sf momen­tary whim. A participater Is aa intellectual doer and not aa un­altered obacrver. The very fact that more studenta didn't attend the fine Religion In Life confer­ence la concrete proof that our campus haa obaervera or aojour- nera in education inateed of par­ticipate ra.But aside from this instance,

where else can students take their part in educating themselves? The most important place I can think of is the class room. For four years

have seen the lectures and tests come and go without any genuine co-operative attempt at learning. It’s time for this to cease, and it’s time that students begin to take up the class room responsibility. Ques­tioning, discussing, and searching for meanings are three obvious ways students can give themselves to the class problems. Utilize the li­brary, the faculty, and your fellow students as means of learning. Stu­dents, however, can’t do the job alone.

The faculty must help to stimu­late the material and provide co­pious opportunities for student par­ticipation. Too many times any de­sire a atudent haa is killed because it isn’t given the opportunity to ex­press itself. The college must direct its activities in the light of the stu­dents and the liberal arts ideal.

A good education is one gained by co-operative participation of EVERYONE in our school. Those students who persist only in receiv­ing the experiences and insights of others without giving up their own will discover too late that those fruits of college life they jealously hoarded will spoil and wither away to nothingness.
