National Teacher Exams to be given Saturday

Over 100 teachers are expected to be at LaGrange College to take the National Teacher Examina- tions on Saturday, Feb. 16, ac- cording to Dr. C. Lee Harwell, dean.

LaGrange is one of 14 testing centers designated in Georgia by the State Department of Educa- tion for white teachers. Prof. J. B. Blanks, professor of psycholo- gy, is coordinator for the testing programs.

Dean Harwell said that all sen- iors in the teacher education pro- gram at LaGrange College will take the tests this Saturday.

College's first mime performance Fri. One of the most talented inter-

preters of the art of pantomime, Frans Reynders, will appear on the LaGrange College stage Fri- day, Feb. 15, at 8 p. m.

The Dutch-born mime will per- form under the sponsorship of the LaGrange College Fine Arts Di- vision. His performance will be open to the public and there will be no admission charge.

Pantomime is a subtle and graceful art. It puts the entire burden on the expressiveness of body and face. Delicate humor, wit, illusion, and beauty are all qualities in it that cannot be in- terpreted and conveyed to an au- dience without great skill on the part of the performer.

WE MUST BEGIN NOW Like it or not, Religious Emphasis Week will hit our

campus in less than two weeks. It is up to us to decide what the two days of required assemblies will mean to our college.

To make our Religious Emphasis Week meaningful, our college leaders must include all campus groups in their plans to support this "revival" of our Christian thinking. Local ministers might be invited to help the speaker conduct in- formal student discussions along chosen topics.

Collegiate lecture series could probably be more success- ful if faculties would schedule tests so that there would be no, conflict with required assemblies. Dorm discussions and gab sessions must be turned to new topics and to the prob- lem at hand.

To discover and to fill our spiritual needs during this Re- ligious Emphasis Week, we must be introspective also. There must be sincere prayers behind every God-led religious movement, and this shall be no exception.

If Religious Emphasis Week is to be worthwhile, we must begin now to strengthen "the spiritual side" of our college life.

THE GREEK ALTERNATIVES Our attention is focused on the sororities and fraternities

during these few weeks, and what do we find as we further inspect them? If the Greek organizations are not function- ing as they should, what can be done about it? How can they improve?

A few people have suggested that the LaGrange College Greeks go national. The Hilltop News feels that such a move would give us even more problems on a larger scale.

Others have predicted that if the sororities and fraterni- ties disband completely, there would be more interest placed in class activities, other clubs would excel socially, and mo- ney that is spent in fraternal activities would be used more advantageously.

If the Greeks remain on our campus, the adoption of various suggestions would certainly not hurt -1— and may even improve — their organization.

Limits could be placed on spending. Efforts could be made to equalize the size and increase the number of soror- ities and fraternities to develop smaller and closer knit groups. Still other discontented students have suggested that the brother-sister relationship be dropped to promote health- ier competition and more pleasant feelings.

The Hilltop News suggests that each member of a Greek organization look at his group's relation to its outlook of, and its service to our campus.

STUDENT POLL by Nancy Stipek

As the question, "Do you think fraternities and sororities benefit the student body?" was asked around campus this week, I found that most people hesitated to answer. Those who did comment said about the same thing — that the ill feelings which exist among sororities and fraternities defeat their purposes.

Some students are disgusted, some don't care, and others just want to forget the whole business (as if they could!).

Some typical examples were:

JOE NALLEY: The way they (sororities and fraterni- ties) are now they aren't a benefit to anyone.

JIM BAGGETT: No, anything that causes ill feelings is not a benefit to the student body.

JUDY HAYES: They aren't going to be (beneficial) as long as they are conducted as they are.

CONNIE REECE: It's good for intramural spirit, but not when this spirit turns into downright hateful competi- tion.

GLENN STONE: I guess they should. SIDNEY JOHNSTON: I feel we should go national.

Yet these comments settle nothing. Our problem remains the responsibility of every member of every LC fraternity and sorority to work toward a solution and to try to create better feeings toward our fellaw students.

'LC COLORING BOOK' by Diane Alford

Following the current trend of the "coloring book game" that has touched a popular song, the Andy Williams Show, and even JFK, here is what we'll call the "LC Coloring Book":

See the group of big children? Color them crazy; they're college students.

Here is the Student Center. Col- or it messy; it's 'sposed to be that way.

This is an open text book. Col- or it quick, before it closes.

See all the big people? Color them powerful; they're the facul- ty.

See the tall boys in the short pants? Color them hustling; they're basketball players.

Here is a classroom. Color it quietly; people are sleeping.

This is a Pan-Hellenic meeting. Color it fussy.

See the campus? Isn't it pretty?

Color it brick. These are girls playing bridge.

Color them lonely (it's Saturday night!)

These are boys playing cards. Color them stupid, (it's Saturday night!)

Here is a professor. Color him carefully; he's a perfectionist.

See the boy and girl on camp- us? Color them close; they're in love.

There is the Dean. Don't color the boy and girl close!

This is a collegiate student. Color him madras. Don't bother to color the other student — he's not in style.

This is the cafeteria. Color it salmon patties.

See the cigarette fiend? Color her miserable; she's in the Student Center.

Now, all you have left to color is the front of the book. Color it like the inside — confusing!

RAINMAKER' REIGNS WITH HOMESPUN HUMOR

Add a dash of homespun philo- sophy to a cupful of humor and you have the romantic comedy "The Rainmaker". This delightful play was presented by the La- Grange College drama department on February 8th and 9th.

Sam Saxon portrayed the role of H. C. Curry with a fatherly in- stinct that not only suited the role of H. C. but Sam as well.

Lean, lanky Mike Davis seem- ed a natural in the part of Noah Curry, the older brother and fami- ly keeper of the Currys.

The "young boy" of the LC Players, Billy Hearnberg, added, as always, to the play's success. A delightful break was afforded Billy when he mimiced the town flirt in the first act.

Robin Hood, as Lizzie Curry, played her role well. Robin prov- ed capable of enacting Lizzie's moods with much flexibility.

Chip Fortenberry as Lile, and Johnny Long as Sheriff Thomas, enacted their roles with such ease and naturalness that not a note

of their comedy sketch in the se- cond act escaped the audience. Their superb contribution to the performance was felt by all.

Bill Starbuck, played by Pratt Hubbard Jr., not only brought rain to our dry western town but also a well executed performance.

All in all, "The Rainmaker" proved an evening well spent. Hats off to Miss Sylvia Strick- land, director of the play.

OVERHEARD

. . . In English 102, Miss Margar- et Hall in charge, from teacher, 'Yes, I'd love to go barefoot on the campus all the time!

. . . At basketball game from a faculty member's wife, perturbed at her husband's exuberant school spirit, "Will you come bail him out?"

We rebel against trivialities at LC and do not go after what we come here for.

Winston

Blumberg I couldn't wait. It was almost

like a dream come true! Soon the great day would be here, and I had one of the big parts. It only lasted for a matter of a very few minutes, but nevertheless I was excited as a new father.

All the weeks of endless pre- paration and excitement were

near the end of the rope, and soon I would be able to shine my talents as the hot-rodder does Ihis car after thir- ty coats of can- dy apple. We had [rehearsed it well

and no one was to falter. The great day finally came. I couldn't believe it; it was actually here! That most wonderful and exciting MAY DAY. It had arrived at last Joy!

I guess the reason it was so wonderful and exciting (and all the other adjectives you wish to use), was that I was in the fourth grade (Miss Gurr) at Rock Springs grammar school in Atlanta. I could never forget it — we all marched out onto the school yard in prim and proper order, looking like an humble meal line at Thanksgiving in the Bowry. I was dressed in my neat little Mex- ican costume that Mom had spent hours on — the big sombrero coming slightly above my eyes. But nevertheless it was still won- derful and it gave me a sense of being. I played my part well, but got nothing for it but the smiling eyes and hearty cheers of those wonderful parents. As Spring and youth. Those were the great days. Those were the May Days.

But it seems that here at LC we must carry over those child- hood dreams and activities for the sake of TRADITION. Why are people so abject to change? Are they merely afraid to stray their flock? I believe in change when it is for the good.

Tradition is difficult to change, whether the tradition is based up- on quality or mediocrity. There are always some who will accept any change with the most painful reluctance.

I don't think it a good idea to abolish May Day completely. But with the changing times of the school (for the better), I think it would be wise to change and progress in certain directions.

Now, let's face it — the gals like that type of thing, and I think it was fine when LC was a female college, but remember, we are changing. Or aren't we? Couldn't we think of something else to take its place that would create some school spirit? If not, I would like to see the money that is taken for that, given to" the homecoming committee. Perhaps it would be better if we had a bigger and better homecoming.

Yes — those youthful days of yore. Those stimulating days of the good ol' red school house. In reality, those were the times for May Day. How about it?

Miss LaGrange Pageant slated for March

LaGrange College coeds will again Ihis year have the oppor- tunity to win scholarships and other prizes and perhaps take the first step toward that dream of every girl, title of "Miss Ameri- ca."

All girls at LaGrange College are eligible to participate in the Miss LaGrange Pageant, according to Mr. Bob Matson, entries chair- man for the LaGrange Junior Chamber of Commerce (Jaycees), the sponsoring organization.

The local pageant is scheduled for Friday, March 9, in Callaway Auditorium. Each contestant will again participate in talent, swim- suit, and evening gown competi- tion.

Power Puff cheerleaders Eight of the very loveliest LC

"girls" were chosen to be cheer- leaders for the Powder Puff game last Friday. Spectators were heard to remark that never before had they seen such ardent and varied cheerleading. The "girls" wore cheerleading uniforms with all the accessories.

The lively belles were Curtis Chapman, John Forrester, Jack Ryder, Sydney Johnston, Gary Smith, Donnie West, Julian Whit- ten, all for the freshman-junior team; and George Redmond for the sophomore-senior team.

If Columbus had turned back, no one could have blamed him, but no one would have remember- ed.

"^l DELT PLANS

Antibellum Ball by Diane Alford

Wonder what the beards' you have been seeing on campus are for? No, not beatnicks, just Pi Delts.

The Pi Delta Kappa fraternity will sponsor a dance for the stu- dent body on March 2, from 8 P. M. til 12 P. M., at the Highland Country Club, LaGrange.

To carry out the Old South theme, the dance will be a "Mint Julep Ball," and everyone will be fittingly dressed — ladies in ante- bellum dresses and gentelmen in uniforms (Confederate, of course), or in Southern formal attire.

Trophies will be given to the Pi Delt brother who has the best beard as selected by the judges, and to the lady with the best Old South costume.

The music will be strictly sou- thern and furnished by "Lotsa Poppa", with Lee Moses and the Show Stoppers. Tickets will be two dollars stag or drag and can be purchased from any Pi Delt.

The Pi Delts anticipate a glor- ious Southern Ball, and with this dance plan to inaugurate a yearly tradition.

Plans also include a .parade of Southern Belles, Confederate sol- diers, and bearded gentelmen on Saturday afternoon, before the dance that night.

~n one respect, explorers of outer space have a bright future. They will never run out of space to explore.

As Vanentine's Day moves into the social calendar, I am remind- ed of what a literary figure once said about a young man's fancy turning toward thoughts of love—

_;.love of tennis, that is.

Yes, in a short while the sound of a beserk serve screeching across the net, followed

The tennis team will initiate the new courts constructed last fall, and who knows, the added prestige of four beautiful courts might even help LaGrange win a few matches. That would be nice for a change.

Seating Capacity Zero While the tennis team is back-

handing and smashing and all that stuff, what are the spectators sup-

->pse to do? There ain't no place to sit down yonder.

Nnw th's may not pose much of i problem for some, but many of ts luxury-lovers must be supplied

with the convenience of sitting down.

Judging from the attendance in previous seasons, if the present "sit"-uation is not corrected, the "crowds" will be even less. Folks may decide to sit through a few hands of bridge instead of having to bear the strain of standing up during the matches.

It would be a generous Valen- tine's gift if. bleachers were in- stalled before the season gets here. Otherwise, those thoughts by the young men on campus may begin to include things as ridicu- lous as .... er, girls even. Whew!

Panthers Lose Chauffeur The loss of Terry Stephens has

more meaning than meets the eye at first glance. The Panthers are now faced with seeking a new chauffeur for the bus, a position "Scenic-route" Stephens has filled throughout the season. The most probable replacement is Jack Mayo, whose campaign slogan reads: "Ride in glee, ride with Jackie."

SIGMA NU TRAMPLES PI DELT

Goblins Eliminate Sigma Nu

by David Holtberg

Gamma Phi, leading by only five points at the half, managed to break loose in the third quar- ter and down Sigma Nu 46 to 33. The loss was number six for Sig- ma Nu and eliminated them from the intramural basketball race.

Again, it was the so called little men that did the scoring. For Gamma Phi it was Bobby Witcher and Collier Westmoreland canning 13 and 11 points. Ted Alford man- aged 10 for Sigma Nu but had little help in the scoring depart- ment.

This victory kept Gamma Phi within range of Pi Delt and things are shaping up into a pretty in- teresting race for first place. Pi Delt leads now with a 5-1 record, Gamma Phi is second with a 4-2 tally, and hapless Sigma Nu is stranded at 0-6.

Sorority standings To date, 4 intramural basketball

games have been played. Alpha Kappa Theta started the season by downing Alpha Phi Beta, 39 to

Sigma Nu, in a do or die effort, played some good basketball and finally chalked up their first win of the season over Pi Delta Kap- pa. "Shack" McDaniel led the Sigma Nu team with 14 points with Ted Alford aiding him with 8 points. High for Pi' Delt was Gleen Stone and Chuck Stevens with 10 and 9 points.

This game saw a fired up Sigma Nu team come from behind early

in the first half and take a 19 to 16 lead at the midway point. This lead lasted about two minutes as Pi Delt came back with three quick baskets. From then to the end of the game no one led by more than three points and the game developed into a real thrill- er. With less than a minute left, Ted Alford sank a foul shot to give Sigma Nu a three-point lead and put the. game on ice. Final score was Sigma Nu 36, Pi Delt 34.

Berry edges LC 66-65 Berry College upset LaGrange

66-65 in an overtime match in Rome Saturday night.

The Vikings took a 12-11 lead midway in the first half after be- ing behind 9-0. . LaGrange's Bob Tuggle put the Panther's back out front with two minutes to play, but again Berry managed to re- gain the lead and went out lead- ing 29-26 at the half.

With seven minutes to play Benny Rickman put LaGrange a- head 49-48 via two free throws.

The Panthers began a freeze with three minutes to play, and

two minutes ticked off before Berry's Charlie McDaniel stole the ball and tied up the game at 57 each.

In the overtime period six fouls were called on the Panthers, two of these offensive charging viola- tions, and Berry claimed the vic- tory from the charity line.

Jack Mayo hit 20 for the Pan- thers and Russell Dickey had 19 for Berry.
