WILL GIVE CONCERTTOMORROW AT 2 P.M.

Spring Frolics get under way tonight as Ray Anthonytakes the bandstand in Johnston Gymnasium for the formaldance, which will last until one o'clock.

I Anthony will take his nationallypopular band outdoors tomorrowafternoon for a two-hour concertbetween Phi and Shearer halls.Concert time is 2:00. In the eventof rain. Anthony will move intoChambers Auditorium.

The final event of the weekendwill be the informal dance inJohnston Gym, beginning at eightand lasting until midnight.

The Interfraternity Council be-gan decorating the gym Wednes-day night in preparation for thereturn of the popularMr. Anthony,who was an overwhelming successin his first appearance at David-son at last year's Spring Frolics.

Anthony, who received the un-qualified stamp of approval fromlast year's spring dance crowdwith his renditions of "When theSaints Go MarchingIn," "Slaughteron Tenth Avenue," and the "Bun-ny Hop," should be able to do arepeat performance this weekendwith no trouble. Still one of thetop dance bands in America, An-thony has continually broadenedand expanded his repertoire to in-clude many more instrumental^,as wellas good danceable music.

Featured vocalists in Anthony'sband areMarcieMiller and TommyMercer, with the Skylinen and theAnthony Choir also getting a highrating in this department.

Anthony, billed as the "YoungMan with a Horn," is one leaderwho believesin strict discipline forhis bandsmen,musically and other-wise, while they are on the job.

Like the late Glenn Miller, whogave him his first important jobin 1940 when he was only 18, Rayis of the opinion that a bandmustdo more than just play music ifit is to achieve top success.

Because the unprecedentedhighoverhead of today makes the bandbusiness big and precarious,maes-tro Anthony rehearses hismusicians hard and forbids suchcommonplace occupational prac-tices as drinking and smoking onthe stand, "because when you'reworking you've got to work."

Surprisingly, the resultant musicis more spirited than in many lessformally managed bands; less sur-prisingly, the ensemble work ofthe Anthony band is crisper andmore precise than the concertedefforts of musicians whose leadersbelieve that nature should be al-lowed to take its course.

Even the appearance of the An-thony aggregation reflects the dis-cipline set forth by its leader. AHollywood radio announcer oncecalled it "the best-dressed band inthe land."

Irene Jordan to SingInConcertNext Week

Irene Jordan, brilliant youngAmerican soprano, hailed by con-ductors and critics alike aa anartist in thegreat classic tradition,willsing inChambers Auditorium,Davidson College, on Friday eve-ning, April 30, at 8:15 p.m., in thelast concert of the 1953-54 David-son College Artist Series.

Prom the time she began study-ing music at the age of 3Vi untilher Metropolitan Opera debut in1M6, she has aimed for learningrather than limelight. Born inBirmingham, Alabama, Irene Jor-dan was one of ten children in acompletely musical family. "Myfather was a music teacher andmy mother a violinist," she says."All the children played instru-ments. We were practically an or-chestra just in ourselves.Iwasthe pianist."

During the twoseasons followingher Metropolitan Opera debut.Miss Jordan sang regularly overthe NBC radio network. In 1*47the singer had a successful seasonwith the Opera Nacional in Mexi-co City. She retired temporarilyfrom public concerts in order todevelop her superb upper range,and toil year she..emerged aa anew operatic and concert star.

Aa of this a— son Miss Jordan issinging as a soprano, rather thana mezzo-soprano. Kirsten Flagstadmade this same change in the midstof her career and bothcritics andaudience, upon hearing Miss Jor-dan'snew voice, feelthatshe mightvery well equal, if not surpass,the great Flagstad's success.

Highlights of Irene Jordan'sconcert in Davidson will be "Mania for the Woman Made" arrangedby Benjamin Britten, "Have YouSeen But a Whyte Lillie Grow," agroup of Germanliederby RichardStrauss and Wolf, "In the Silenceof Night" by Rachmaninoff, andarias from "Ernani" by Verdi andfrom "The Abduction from theSeraglio" by Mozart.

Fewstudents or faculty men willdeny that there toa growing aware-ness of the need for a stronger,more definite, and more workableinterpretation of the problem.There are some who seem to thinkthis to definitely the case.

With unexpected regret and under-standable relief the retiring editor turnsover the duties, headaches, worries andsatisfactions of the office to his successor.

We will not pat ourselves on the backas we walk out the door, mouthing vaguegeneralities about what a good year wehave had. We honestly feel we have insev-eralinstances done a jobof which we couldbeproud,but on the other hand there havebeen some moments best forgotten.

Elected on the platform of reflectingstudent opinion, we have since come towonder whether that is the highest callingof the student newspaper, though we stillfeel it is important More vital, however,is the responsibility of molding informedstudent opinion on the more fundamentalissues of college education, and how it ispreparingus for a world such as this.

The weekly college newspaper is apretty good barometer of student attitudesand a reasonably good indication abouthow much and what kind of thinking isgoing on among students. Of course, itshould not merely be satisfied with thepassive role of barometer for the studentbody.It shouldbe anactive and stimulatingforce presenting new ideas, rather than abroken phonograph, repeating for itsreaders what they are already thinking andwhat they like to hear.

Our feeling is that too often we havemerely catered to the student body insteadof informing them.

But together with certain recriminations-about our failures goes a deep satisfactionthat workingwith the Pavldsoniaw has pro-vided. This publication has an importantplace on the campus with a world of op-portunity for intelligent student self-ex-

This, of course, to the point atwhich the fundamental issue statedat the beginning of this article toconcerned. For we should realisethat there were hundreds, prob-ably thousands of Americana whoback in the desperate days of thenineteen thirties and even in theearly fortieswho had some degreeof sympathy with the Communists.These were the times, remember,when fascism— the archenemy ofCommunism

—was running amuck

in Europe, and when the Depres-sion waacausing extremehardshipto people throughout the world.Communism, at that time, seemedto many as a possible way out ofthe chaos and misery which wasthe order of the day. Communism

on the other hand did net seemto be the weaponofan expanding,aggressive, imperialistic nationthat it -to today. And we cannotafford to miss this point whenjudging former Communists in thelight of modern times.

Another point that we shouldrealize to that the persons whowere attracted to Communism inthe dark days of the thirties andearly forties were as a rate of themore intelligent. intellectualclasses. And it to inevitable thatmany of these same persons, whowere in their twentiesand thirtiesduring the era in question andarenow in their forties and fifties,are men who have the experienceand intelligence in such fields asscience, history, political science,economics, et al, to be of greatvalue to the Government

Amendments I, IV, and V aredesigned to give the Student Gov-ernment the teeth which it so sadlylacks now, and to make explicitwhat has long been vague and in-definite.The first one (note changeon page 2) makes the Student Gov-ernment have more guts. It makesdear that the Student Governmentmust be the group to decide onstudentaffairs withoutpassing theback to the Faculty. The right ofappeal is not denied any student;but the amendment points out thestudent leaders' obligations to thestudent body.

The fourth amendment, dealingwith the signed statement, is notittftgrw1 to place anything newunder the Honor System; quite thecontrary, it simply makes clearto aa incoming student that he isbecoming a part of the StudentGovernment. He agrees to placehimself under our Constitution,understanding what our raws are,and the i<msfW|iinnc<ii for break-Ing them. It is an effort to elimi-nate the ignorance of our govern-ment, which has been so wide-spread in the peat

The amendment calling for fulltestimony by student witnesses(number five) hi absolutely essen-tial, for without it the StudentGovernment cannot depend uponMs onlysource of power— the co-pperation of the students. Again,this to nothing now; for yean itbaa simply boon understood thatall students would cooperate fullyla aiding the Student Council toseek out and administer justice. Itwas only the strain of an unjustrue that erased this understand-ing to fail.

Now we must clarify the under-standing as wellas change the un-just rule.It is idleto citetheFifthAmendment to the U. S. Constitu-

The current security case in-volving atomic scientistDr. RobertOppenheimer has already ceased tobe headline news in the daily pa-pers, largely because there havebeenno new facts or developmentssince the appointment of a specialthree-manboardto review the factsand announce its decision, whichis due about a week from .iow.

But if the Oppenheimer case isnot occupying as much newspaperspace as it did last week, the cen-tral issue in the case is just as im-portant now as it was when thenews of the story broke. For theOppenheimer case involves morethan the innocence or guilt of oneman. The overriding issue here isthe question: Should a person'sformer political beliefs and asso-ciations be held to forever dis-qualify himself from public serv-ice?

The argument which will imme-diately be made upon the posingof this question is that in the Op-penheimer case it is not yet cer-tain that he has definitely re-pudiated his established formerpolitical sympathies and associa-tions, i.e., his sympathy with manyCommunist causes and associationwith known Communists in thenineteen thirties and early forties.

is asecurity risk is based on morethan merely bis former politicalassociations. It is the secondcharge, which is also established,that Dr. Oppenheimer in 1949 op-posed the all-outprogram for the

The seniors,of all students, seem to bethose most interested in the progress, orlack of progress on the amending of theConstitution. Some have just stood in aweat this phenomenon. Others have accusedthe sages of the student body of being lastminute glory seekers. Be this right orwrong, there seems to be little but praisefor men who spark for action during theirlast weeks in Davidson while the rest ofthe student body, the people who will beaffected by any change, sits idly by halfasleep, wholly unconcerned.

There are those who will consider theforegoing unfair to the Davidson students.Coffee time often finds conversation aboutthe proposed amendments. But conversa-tion is all. An introspective glance by thestudent would likely reveal tohim that heis a parrot at heart, soaking in witty say-ingsbyothers inorder to repeat them him-self, but leaving action buried beneath hiswords. To talk, to converse, to argue, togripe: all is utterly useless energy sown tothe wind without the vital interest and in-testinal fortitude to change words toactions.

The "fight" over the proposed amend-ments has butadded tacit assent to the un-challenged conclusion that the Davidsonstudent is ever apthetic about anythingbeyond six hours sleep and three mealsdaily.

For two weeks now a sprinkling of stu-dent!have kept their ears and lips openinan effort to hear any comment about theamendments they oppose or propose andto press their case. In an effort to keepthings going they have made the calm dis-cussions of the amendments seem veritablewars of words. Those in favor of the pro-posals have warned over and over againthat something must be done this year be-fore the whole thing dies down.

Itis disheartening to realize that thingsseem to have died already. Perhaps fewwen interested in the first place. Thewords of Bob Crutchfield in chapel twoweeks agostirred the students to clapping—after all, wasn't someone proposing inde-pendence, whatever that was? Since then,however, little thought has been, given tothe matter by most students,and the wholedecision about the amendments now restson the question of whether or not theywill ever find their way into the Fridayvotingof the studentbody.

By RANDY JOHNSTONThe Davidson vanity track team

will take a trip to Columbia, SC,tomorrow for a three-day meetwith the Gamecocks of the Uni-versity of South Carolina and theCitadel Bulldogs. The Davidsonteam has shown much improve-ment aa the season has progressedand willcarry an experiencedanilstrong team on the trip.

Inprevious meets, the only weakspots have been in the fieldevents.However, these have been muchimproved since the opening meet.

Carrying the brunt of the attackin the track and field events thisseason are: Captain Bill Shipley;the versatile sophomore, PhilKoonce; Homer Sparks; FloydFeeney; Frank Mitchener; Tim Gil-ley; Harry Peterson; and HarlcySmith.

Cl.mson WinsIn a three-way meet last Satur-

day, with Clemson and Woffordfurnishing the opposition,the Wild-cat cindermen finished second.Clemson edged past the Cats by aslim, 77-75 margin, while Woffordonly got 11 points to finish third.

Coach Whittle was pleased withthe showing of the team. Davidsontook seven out of fifteen firstplaces. Phil Koonce was the biggun for the Red and Black. Kooncewalked off with three first placesand was one of the runners in thewinning mile relay team. The firstplaces came in the 100yd. dash,the 220 yd. dash, and the broadjump.

Homer Sparks finished first inthe mile, and Bill Shipley won thegruelling 440 yd. run.Floyd Feeneywon the two-milerun for Davidsonto complete the sweep in the dis-tance events.

ingDavidson on the cinders there. Coach Pete Whittle's boysare to meet the University of South Carolina, and TheCitadel in a triangular meet tomorrow. Thereforethere will be little dancing for the Davidson cindermen.And why? Who knows. We've known since early in Marchthat Spring Frolics weekend would be on April 23 and 24.Yet no attempt was made to re-schedule the meet on anotherdate. What's wrong down there in the Davidson Athletic Of-fice? Is a schedule that hard to change—

that a date can't bemoved a month in advance? Let's get on the ball. These boyswork out hard during the spring months so that Davidsoncan do well in track. They deserve at least one small con-"aeration.

Last Tuesday was the day for Honor Chapel, and whenthe timecame for the Tommy Peters award tobe made, JohnnyGray was given the honor. This is one award at Davidsonwhich represents something beyond achievement in the ordi-nary sense of the word. Tommy Peters came to Davidson in1941. He was the outstanding freshman athlete of that year,and in1942, he moved up into varsity competition. Inhis firstyear of vanity competition at Davidson,he won four letters.He was a first-line end in football, and he played one of thestarting infield positions for the diamond crew. But basket-ball,was where Peters really shone. In the Southern Confer-ence tournament of 1943, Tommy led the Davidson team asfar as the semi-finals. He fouled out of that game with lessthana minute left to play in the semi-final round, and David-ion lost in an overtime. Tommy was selected as the mostpopular player in the tournament and was a unanimous choicefor the All-Conference team.

But Tommy Peters was more than just an extraordinaryathlete. He played the game hard,but he also played it fair.He was what Davidson students today often scoff at

— "aDavidson gentleman." He truly represented the "DavidsonSpirit."

In 1943, Tommy Peters, like many other Davidsonians,went into the Armed Services. And when the war was over,ho was one of those who didn't return. He might have beenthe greatest Davidson athlete of all time. His brother Georgewas the first recipient of the trophy, and we might add herethat George was quite an athlete himself.

The major leagueshave finally gotten into full swing upNorth, and there is always that question, "Can the Yankeesdo it again?" The Bronx Bombers have won five straightWorld Series championships, a new record for consecutivewins,and each year,sports fans have predicted that the Yan-kees were "through." Casey Stengle has continued to win,however, and has another good club this year. Boston RedSox-and Chicago White Sox fans are convinced that this willbe theyear that the New York club won't win.Certainly, bothof these clubs appear to have the best chance of pushing theYankees out of first place. When Ted Williams returns tothe Red Sox line-up, they will be in there fighting for thelead. But right now, it looks like the World Series will re-main aNew York affair, withBrooklyn and the Yanks meet-

PhiDells Near TitleIn Inlerfral Tennis

With only one match remainingon their schedule, the Phi Deltaappear to be on their way to asecond consecutive inter-fraternitytennis championship. The Phi Doltcombination of Buford Price andJames Montgomery has beatenevery foe thus far, and only theATOs' remain in the way of thecrown.

The SPEs and the KAs werestill holding strong positions untilthis week when bothclubs lost tothe Phi Delts. Several other com-binations have played very fewmatches and could move up fastat the last moment,but it appearsthat none will be able to moveinto the top spot.

The Betashave now won seven matches andhave lust only one, and their com-bination will probably finish theseason in second place.

Frosh TrackstersComplete ScheduleWith Lenoir Rhyne

The Davidson freshman trackteam encountered Lenoir RhyneCollege here this afternoon inwhat should have been one of thetoughest meets of the year forthe Wildkittens.This meet markedthe last of a five-meet card, andclosed out the frosh schedule onthe cinders.

Prior to the meet, the freshmenhad defeated East Mecklenburg.North Mecklenburg, and MyersPark High schools in a four-waymeet and had crushed the Ashe-ville School for Boys. The onlyloss for the frosh squad this sea-son was the encounter with theMars Hill Junior College team lastweekend.

The frosh tracksters have hada very successful season, and awell-balanced team with strengthin every event has been the big-gest factor in the fine record forthe campaign. Bill Gramley, BillLazenby, and Gaylord Walkerhave been consistent winners inthe weight events, and John Robi-son and John Hunter have beenthe leaders in the high jump.Robison also participates in thepole vault and in the dashes. MaiMcSwain has been theKitten broadjumper, and John Holshouser isthe leading pole vaulter.

Don Campbell, one of the out-standing men on the team, hasconsistently been the winner in thehurdles, although pushed by BobHcywood and Zel McGee. The dash■ten for theKittens areJim "Duck"Covington, Frank Kiker. RosewellMallory,Mai McSwain and Robison.Pete Ashcraft, the leader of thefrosh cross-country team, has beenthe runner in the distance events.

heimer lies must arrive at somesort of formula by which to judgefuture caaes of this type, for thiswill surely not be the last timesuch a case comes up. It seemsimperative that such a formulashould include at leastone or bothof the following considerations:

Two Criteria(1) Can it be established— at

least within reasonable doubt thatthe person involved has not hada change of heart from his formersympathies, and/or repudiated hisformer associations?

(2) Does the person's opinion orstand on the issue in question-merely because it happens to co-incide with the current Russianviewpoint— necessarily mean thathe still has subversive sympathiesand beliefs. For instance might itnot truly be thatDr. Oppenheimeropposed the construction of thehydrogen bomb purely on moralgrounds?

The only encouraging aspect ofthe situation is that whatever theGray committeedecides to do, thedecision made will be a rationaland carefully considered one, notdictated by demagoguery or politi-cal aspirations as it might easilyhave been if certain other Govern-ment officials had gotten hold ofthe case.
