VOLUME XLIII FRIDAY, MAY 27, 1966 NUMBER 15 -19.0 The greatest change from last year is the steep decline in en- gineering acceptances. Dean Beineman pointed out that on a national level, engineering Expli- cations have been down and that many schools he has contacted have reported a similar decline. The decline in the numbers in the Business Administration Col- lege was attributed partially to the lower tuitions at Temple Uni- versity. Dean Beineman stated that, on a national basis, this year's high school graduates will number 65,000 fewer than last year's. He added that schools such as Cornell are still accepting ap- pUcations, while Lehigh and Penn have closed off applications but have not attained their expected number of entering freshmen. Concerning the quality of stu- dents accepted this year, Dr. Beineman said that, <*Based on the students* college board scores and rank in class, the quality of students accepted this year is as good as or better than those accepted last year.** Outstanding Students To Receive Awards At 52nd Institute Day Drexel*s outstanding students will be honored at the 42nd An- nual Institute Day to be held on Tuesday, June 7th in the Grand Hall of the Activities Center.

He at- tributes this reduction to re- quired revisions in master*s the- ses which will take until after graduation to complete. In the undergraduate schools, he anticipates a drop from 743 candidates to about 725 gradu- ates. The Evening College, with 194 degree candidates and 21 diplomates, should maintain diplomates, should maintain about the same numbers until Commencement.

Drexel wants to enlist federal aid in o rder to offer more fel­lowships to graduate students. Dean Witzell also commented, “ With the increased incentive we hope that many more excellent students will be enrolled.”

com m ercial concern.The final designation is that

of train ing gran ts. These are funds which a re given only for the support of the training of g raduate students. Such money is used fo r fellowships and other m eans to fu rth e r graduate study The two departm ents which bene­f it m ost from this so rt of grant a re the Bio-m edical and Environ­m ental Engineering departm ents. The money fo r the support of these two groups comes from the U.S. Public Health Service, 'a governm ent agency.

The Bio-m ed section last year rece ived $62,000 and next year hopes to get $110,000. The En­v ironm ental Study Group receiv­ed $8000 previously and will get $140,000 next year. Additional tra in ing gran ts in the amounts of $65,000 will come from the N ational Science Foundation, NASA and the Office of Educa­tion in support of the new doc­to ra l p rog ram .

A ll of th is money is allotted to the various colleges in the school. T here a re M aster’s pro­g ram s in every departm ent of the college and doctoral pro­g ram s in physics, chemistry, m a te r ia ls and applied mechanics. The la t te r p rogram is in terd is­cip linary in that it can grant d o c to r’s degrees to students in­te re s te d in many fields, such as m echanical engineering and civil engineering. Perhaps because of i ts m ulti-study nature, it is the fa s te s t growing doctoral p ro ­g ram .

Of a ll of the funds mentioned above, 83% last year came from UJS. Government grants with the balance coming mainly from Du­Pont Co.; Dow Chemical; P ro c - to r-S w artz , a chemical concern; the Philadelphia E lectric Com­pany; United States Steel Corp.; Sun Oil Company; E sso O ilCom - pany, and the H ercules Powder Company.

I feel lous y .

I often wondered what I’d do if

it ev er happened that so m eth in g w a s

printed that should not have . I am

s t i l l wondering.

N ic e c l i c h e s about “ humble p i e ”

do not su f f i c e to p a s s o f f the

blunder.

In the i s s u e of May 6, an art icle

on the features page s lan der ed the

entire corps of parking lot a t tend­

a nt s in an effort to improve the

management of the parking lo ts on

campus . To o many unauthorized

cars were f i l l i ng the lo t s whi le

drivers with s t i c k e r s had to park

on the s t ree t .

I’m f inding it i m p o s s i b le to

d e v i s e a way to ju st i f y the paper’s

approach to th is problem. I c a n ’t

think of a c l e v e r or graceful way to

admit that I w a s wrong to le t the

art i c le be printed.

L i t t le c o n s o l a t io n i s derived

from the fact that t ighter contro ls

are now be ing enfor ced , and fewer

unauthorized cars are g e t t in g on the

lo t s .

I s t i l l f e e l lo u s y . T h e art ic le

emba rrassed the lot a t t end ant s and

c a u s e d them a great deal of undue

harrassment from their sup ervisor .

T o c l ea r the repu tat ions of t h e s e

men, we talked to one of them this

week to learn of their s i tu at i on , or

better, p l ight .

We learned that they are the butt

of much ab u s i ve language and

treatment. One of them was ph ys i ­

c a l ly pushed by a member of the

facul ty while trying to perform

his job.T h e y r ec e i v e no rel ie f during

their entire day to a l le v ia te any

personal d i scomforts . If one of them

d o e s le a v e for a short time, the

chain must be put up, but can’t be

loc ked , s i n c e cars must get off

the lot too— and that’s when many

of the unauthorized cars pull onto

the lo ts .You can check all around their

s h a c k s , none much bigger than

upright c a s k e t s , and you won’t

find a heat ing unit. If drinking on

the job d o e s o c c a s s i o n a l l y occur,

i t ’s during the cold of winter and,

I think, quite understandably.

As for ins ta l l i ng mechanized

g a t e s , I find it d if ficul t to be l iev e

that there wil l ever be a machine

w ho s e p re se n c e wi l l deter pi l fer­

age or report any damages from

a c c i d e n t s .

In the masthead below, there i s

a s tat eme nt which n o te s that, “ The

op ini on s in s i gn ed co lumns are not

n e c e s s a r i l y those of the Institute

.. or of The T r ia n g l e .” I can speak

for the latter that such i s the c a s e

Wall Painters Reply;

Consider Themselves

Hawthorn R e p „ , l i .J

“ Midnijjht Sknlk,.,v-

Aspiring Artists" With More Informaii,,,,M r. Hawthorn Replies;

The eloquence of the “ Reply .f Mldnlgh S kulkers” has s o m ^ a ceeded the accuracy found in their w* te r com menting on my observah.! Nowhere in my a rtic le did I mnkpI ’ tensions of being an a r t critic'nor a!* claim to authority o ther than indicatil^ the observa tions of a pedestrian had walked along the length o f ?fence. I ‘‘personally witnessed” peonwreactions to the fence and described m observa tions in p rin t as the Midni.h! Skulkers have done. I personally knol of no adm in istra tive restrictions Qm plied to ex is t by the Midnight sici.i kers) that specifically prohibit the paint* ing of our construction fences.

Editor, Drexel Triangle;In answer to Mr. Gary Hawthorne s

scathing criticism of the slogans paint­ed on the fence along Woodland Avenue,I think that he has set himself up as a judge of aspiring a r tis ts and their work without appreciating the condi­tions under which the work was ca r ­ried out. At Penn, a rt work upon the fence is encouraged. Here at Drexel, the obstacles which one must over­come in order to embellish a fence are quite formidable.

F irs t there is a problem with the lighting conditions. It seem s that a r t work during the day is discouraged due to bothersome flies, janitors and over- zealous motorcyclists. Certainly da Vinci did not have to paint his “ Last Supper” in the dark. Yet, these are the conditions which are imposed upon aspiring artis ts here at Drexel. Com­paring Penn’s fence to D rexel’s is like comparing a Rembrandt with an Andy Warhol pop painting. Indeed, just what does Mr. Hawthorne know about a rt? Is he an expert? Is he an a r tis t? O r is he just an overly sensitive, overly loquatious junior Humanities and Tech­nology major?

In addition to questioning M r, Haw­thorne's competence as an a r t authority, the accuracy of his interpretations of peoples* reactions to the fence must be seriously questioned. Having p e r ­sonally witnessed the mirthful response of many students who were passing by the fence, it must be concluded that the would-be a rtis ts accomplished what they originally set out to do; em bel­lish the fence with some amusing slo­gans that would be neither offensive nor harmful.

Only one of these slogans was ap­parently deemed offensive by the Build­ing and Grounds department, and it was soon painted over. This slogan sup­ported the bombing of Hanoi and Powel- ton village. Although the m erit of bomb­ing Hanoi is s till being hotly debated, an attack on Powelton village could be quite beneficial by ridding Philadel­phia of one of its main breeding grounds for roaches.

Have the fence painters really com­mitted as great an offense as Mr. Hawthorne could have us believe? Is this form of e:q)ression really so m or­bid and decadent that “ its total harm can never be accurately evaluated?” Is “ its long range effect as im m easur­able as its manifestation is indescrib­able?” Or is Mr. Hawthorne just r e ­leasing his own frustrated, unstable, and perverted emotions in writing such an article?

The Midnight Skulkers

It is a lso implied that one should be an a r t i s t in o rd e r to criticize Drex el»s fence. I wonder if one must he a m u rd e re r in o rd e r to write about m urder? W itness Trum an Capote's K COLD BLOOD - a book which has been num ber one on the best seller lists fo r w eeks. Is T rum an Capote a mur d e re r? Do people doubt his accuracy of reporting the fac ts simply because he has n ever com m itted m urder?

I also wonder if the Midnight Skul. k e rs noticed the reaction of Bulletin em ployees, in p a rticu la r, who traverse Drexel»s p roperty on their way to lunch at Kelly and Cohen? It can accurately be sta ted that th e ir “ responses” were hardly “ m irth fu l.”

In re fe ren ce to the slogan promoting the bombing of Hanoi and Powelton V illage, I cannot reco llect that the bomb­ing was so humorously justified on the w all as it is in the Skulker’s letter. 'The Midnight S ku lker 's ambition to rid Philadelphia of a nest of vermin was a reason that did not accompany the orig­inal suggestion that the tw o locations be bombed. However, I cannot agree that any bombing of innocent people is “ nei­th e r offensive nor harm ful.”

I also failed to notice that Drexel was p laced in the College Catalogue in a se p a ra te category o r with an as­te r isk following the school’s location. Should the school be noted as not be­ing an authentic institution of higher learning? When a bas is for compari­son with Penn is possible, it is not only justifiable, but also extremely heal­thy.

In conclusion, I, in agreement with the T riang le Staff, used this compari­son to indicate that D rexel’s slogans are not “ am using,” but rather, lacking In im agination.

penings. The problem of communicating an experience so subjective is almost im possible of solution.

Men of talent and intellect have con­sistently tried and rejected the synthetic aids to authentic experience. Opium, hyp­notism and starvation have all had their day. Men return to the basic struggle- how to free the sp irit and test this freedom with every tool of the mind or senses. Then finding a way through art poetry, dram a, even philosophy to share it.

The artic les which have appeared re ­cently in such profusion make two things quite c lea r. F irs t, “ pot” users are not converting the active minds of our so­ciety because they fail to communicate. Second, no one has even the slight­e s t basis fo r sound quantitative judg­m ents about how many people, on cam­pus o r off, use o r have used the weed.

T r u t h A b o u t W a t e r - B o yBy Mike

The secre t Is finally out! W ater- boy is not a water-boy!

Why isn’t he? Because as is so often suggested in jests, he’s not drinking water. Yes, despite the identity tag and years of tradition, the statue at the east entrance of the Great Court is not that of a boy drinking water. It s wine! Not only that; he isn’t even a statue, he’s a fountain.

These rem arkable facts were brought to light by a very old book from a very cramped aisle in the very a is le -le ss library basement. “ M asterpieces of the International Exposition, 1876,” page 243, ca rr ie s a sketch of Bartholdi’s “ The Young Vine-Grower” —our “ Wa- ter-boy.” Page 306 has the following explanation:

“ Mr. Auguste Bartholdi’s ...Young Wine Growers ...a bronze design for a fountain... is too simple to need explan­ation. The strapping young vinter, fa­tigued with his work of treading out the grapes, s its down panting on a stump, his dog beside him, and drinks from a keg of new wine...In the fountain when com­plete, a stream would run from the bung- hold of the keg directly into open mouth of the figure...”

In other words, D rexel’s oldest tr a ­dition is to rub the grape-stained foot on the dry fountain figure of an underage wino!! And this to bring luck in exams?!

The implications of this find a re in­deed staggering. F irs t , the question a r ise s as to why the truth about*‘W ater- boy” has been so long suppressed.

Could it be an adm inistrative conspir­acy? We think not. F o r there’s very little to be gained from conspiring to mislabel statues. The big money nowa­days is in textbook price-fixing.

Or could it be just overzealous pro ­tective paternalism , that strange quirk that resu lts in dorm hours, d re ss regu­lations, drinking prohibitions and every­thing else short of outright spanking? Possible! The capability does exist.

Wadl(

After all, isn’t a statue of a lewd vagrant woman called “ Sappho” to p ro ­tect the suggestible coed?

Or could the reason be less s in is te r? Maybe the Ixwk containing the truth about “ W ater-boy” has just not been returned by a delinquent faculty m em ber 90 years overdue! Very likely. In fact, alm ost anything is likely...

But let us consider o ther questions. Such as, does D rexel have such an excess of fountains that it can use them as hallway decorations? And: could this p a rticu la r fountain be made operable (either indoors o r outdoors)? It would certainly come in handy during Senior Week!! (Bubble bath, dye, je llo ,...the mind boggles!)

The question thus raised a re endless. Does “ W ater-boy” typify the exploitation of child labor? Is he the V ictorian Age co-op?

And what of the wine? Is it C hristian B rothers o r Manischewitz? (Just whose ‘*Water-boy” is he?)

But why continue calling him “ W ater- boy” when now we know he isn’t?

We need a new name. Wine Boy? The Fountain of Vermouth?

W alt! An idea! Bartholdi, its sculptor, is the sam e man who created The Statue of L iberty. Why not call ou r shrine The Statue of Libation? Of course, we can only suggest names, since the final decision m ust come from the newly- appointed V ice-president in charge of C luttering Up the Hallways (which, by the way, is another good name for the statue!)

W hatever name he finally receives, “ W ater-boy” ’s tradition has been g rea t­ly enhanced. F o r now we know he’s one of us; a youth rewarding labor with appropriate refreshm ent, unconcerned that immunity from sta te liqudr laws begins a few blocks to the southwest. And even better; a youth invulnerable to w hatever D rexel has in s to re for him - h e 's already 100% bronze.

Ju s t what is a college? Essentially, a college o r university is a meeting place of people who have experienced som e of the knowledge of the world with those who wish to gain from that experience. The two groups, faculty and students, define a college. A col­lege administration exists to provide the buildings and serv ices which the faculty and students require.

Since the quality of instruction at a college depends on the capabilities of the p ro fesso rs and the students, in ter­ference by an adm inistration at almost any stage of the educational process is harmful. At Drexel, unfortunately, such in terference has taken place “ in the pursu it of excellence.”

The interference is in several vital a re a s . Of greatest importance has been the adm inistration’s handling of faculty. Secondly, the administration is guilty of the same practices that have brought national condemnation to a well-known institution. Finally, if only for this artic le , the school’s pursuit of excellence seem s to have taken a wrong turn some­w here along the road.

Drexel vs. Facu ltyUpperclassmen, in particular, should

rec a ll the teachers whom they would consider good and ask themselves the question: What ever happened to Dr. (or M r.) Teacher? The answer to this will be in too many cases that these teachers a re no longer at Drexel. They have left the school to go elsewhere for higher sa laries, for higher rank, m ore respect for their professional capabilities and for a more encourag­ing academic atmosphere.

Many of these p rofessors who have left o r who will be leaving shortly, a re young, capable and dedicated to the teaching profession. They have J" their short stay here achieved wide popular­ity on the students’ part for their c lass­room skills. What happens to the school’s ability to attract and keep eood people once the word gets out that

Institute has made little or no effort to offer the faculty what other collegesa re eiving them?

H seem s many find It better to pursueexcellence - elsewhere.

Drexel v*. GradesIn recent weeks, the U. S. Naval

Academy has made the front pages of newspapers across tlie coun ty for the revelation that the Academy had been a rb itra rily raising the grades of stu d ^ t s officials had decidedSwt too many were failing courses such

therefore, their udmlnls-

tration raised the grades of many stu­dents so that only a certain percentage would fail. Anapolis has been under fire for this by the accrediting group, the Middle States Association of Col­leges and Secondary Schools.

This is the same group that accredits Drexel, which is no less guilty of the same practice. In many cases fresh ­men physics and humanities grades were r a i s ^ in the fall using two methods - e ither teachers were instructed not to flunk too many, o r grades were raised after the teacher reported them. Why should a teacher bother giving te s ts and grades if an adm inistra tor decides what students will receive?

No one should seriously e :^e c t good humanities work from the engineering students, many of whom had scores as low as 400 in the verbal section of the college boards. Whom are we really deceiving by raising grades?

Drexel vs. MIT

Since many people consider D rexel to be p rim arily an engineering school, it is only natura l that the school is com­pared to the leader in the area, M ass­achusetts Institute of Technology. With the adm inistration’s stated policy of pursuing excellence, many feel that the school is pursuing MIT in a race with the winner being declared the nuipber one engineering school.

The race is one that D rexel cannot win and should not stay in. The In­stitute cannot win, if only because good faculty m em bers a re leaving and be­cause of bad p rac tices such as grade ra ising . To inc rease the aura of its name, D rexel should not try to become a carbon copy of MIT. If it does be­come a copy, then it will always be com pared to the original. The school should develop and perfec t an area of educational excellence fo r which no other school is known. D rexel must be known not only for its academic standing, but also for its ability to innovate. Such an a rea could be in co-operative education, but not neces­sa rily .

Cooperative education makes this school different and renowned, but the co-op plan has not changed o r improved much over the last decade. It is , however, distinctive and valuable to the education­al e:q}erience. The point is that both students and D rexel have benefited from this different program . If the admin­istra tion does not choose to perfect the co-op plan, it should se lect an area in which Drexel can l)ecome the leader.

Evidently, something m ust be done about teachers leaving and about admin­is t ra to rs falsifying g rades. If the admin­istra tion gives the faculty the sam e o r be tte r benefits than they can get e lse ­where, the f irs t condition will l)e sa tis ­fied. The second is e a s ie r once people rea lize that honesty is the best policy. Successful improvement in both a reas by the adm inistration is a necessary step on the road to excellence.

I 've dec ided to pu rsu e E X C E L ­LENCE, gent lemen . . . I’m leav ing

As m o st people know, the change in grading systems neces s ita te d a specia l ranking formula which amounted to a weighted average of rank under the old sy s tem and rank under the new sy s tem .

A fac t tha t m ost people do not know is that some rather par. adoxical situations can come to light when this weighted rank for. m ula w as applied twice for each student to generate two lists as m entioned above.

The purpose of this open let- t e r is to d issp e ll any feeling that the ranking lis ts are “ fouled up** ju s t because some of the r e s u l ts a r e unusual.

As a single example, the stu. dent who ranked number one in h is college (when the calcula. tion involved a relatively high num ber of students) came out num ber two in his department and vice v e rsa . F o r this to hap. pen, the academ ic performance of the students involved had to be quite close and in recognition of th is , the adm inistration has de­cided to t r e a t this particular situation a s a tie for any honors o r aw ards that may be involved.

In our opinion, this one con­s truc tive action by students goes a long way in muffling one hun­dred m ore noisy, more dram atic, le s s worthwhile action. A llDrex- e l should applaud and take pride in these students and their sense of constructive action.

This however, is only one of the many a re as of inconvenience.

The next a re a affects not only the D rexel g ir ls in general, but indirectly , D rexel men.

The g rea test inconvenience placed upon the g irls is their curfew s. F reshm en g irls must be in at 11 p.m . and upper­classm en at 12. Of course, rea liz ing the need for an ex­tension of this time on week­ends, the school has had the len­iency to expand these hours to 12:30 on F riday and, if you have behaved yourself all week, to1 a .m . on Saturday night. Spe­c ia l 2 a.m . perm issions are also given.» Unfortunately, these can­not always be taken. At this moment, there is a sign at the Sheraton notifying the g irls that no 2 o*clocks will be given this weekend.

If these hours seem a little s t r ic t to you, keep in mind that the g ir ls have been granted a lee- w a y - 10 minutes (except on 1 and2 o*clocks.) When you consider how fa r the Sheraton is from the f ra ts , the generosity of Drexel alm ost overwhelms you and you a re able to realize the full im ­plications of these curfews.

The absurdity of these rules espoused by the school, however gocxl the school*s intentions, is obvious upon any sound evalua­tion. The implications they pur­p o rt to rep resen t a re that Drexel g ir ls a re indecent, immoral, and lack self-d iscip line. It is be­cause they s ta r t with such a low supposition that they must make such petty regulations. Be­s ides the fact that their original hypothesis is totally wrong, it is not the duty of the school to play the ro le of babysitter or se t itse lf up as a judge of right o r wrong. Do they believe that by setting an early curfew pec^le w ill become m ore moral?

Any debauchery that*s going to be done, if it*s going to be done, w ill be done. Anyone should be able to rea lize this, above all the school. Instead of falling back on the crutch of parentis, they should face the dem ands of today*s society and encourage the g irls to attain the m oral integrity and courage needed to make the transition from childhood to adulthood.

C hildren need to be told when to come in; adults know. Drexel seem s to feel Uiat by treating its co-eds as children, it is ful­filling its obligations to tlieir paren ts . is it? Or is Uiis just anotlier way of shirking re ­sponsibility?

It is not Uie duty of Drexel to play babysitter. It job to afford Uieir students the opportunity to attain a hig le educatioiu

With this last article of the formally

Pu ^ end to the “ Philadel­phia Fantasy.** That’s right. No

beaten banner, or even more of­fensive, lauding such “ terrific** traditions as cobblestones and one-way stree ts . Philadelphia is far from fantastic, and we all know it, but that is hardly the problem at hand.

No city is fantastic and any efforts to make one so would be in vain. The reason? A city is a city only because of its peo­ple. And all people are different- good and bad, successful and un­successful; hardly fantastic - but terribly real. And this is the problem at hand.

Have you ever considered that Philadelphia*s only claim to fame is, in fact, that it is your city? And that if you haven*t learned to enjoy it or appreciate it, for no other reasons than for the personal associations you choose to make with it, it can be con­sidered nothing but your loss. Forget about the cobblestones and the im pressive skyline. Be proud of it, because you live in it.

It took me three term s to weed through the fantasy, but now that I*ve finally arrived at reality, perhaps you will find the informa­tive part of this article a bit ea sie r to digest.

Summertime in and 'B o u t Ph i la .Since sum m ertim e for D rexel

students s ta r ts on June 18, we*ll s ta r t there. “ Oliver,** s ta rring W alter Slezak and G loria De Haven, will be at the Camden County Music F a ir . Ella F itz ­gerald will entertain at St. John Terrell*s Music C ircus in Lam - bertville, N .J. from June 21 through June 26. She*ll be fol­lowed by the Supremes from June 27 until July 3rd.

You have a wide choice on the Fourth of July. Shirley Jones will s ta r in “ The Sound of Music** at the Valley Forge Music F air, while Paul Ford s ta rs in “ You Can’t Take It With You** at the Playhouse in the Park . The great Louis Arm strong will be at the Lam bertville Music C ircus.

On Sunday, July 24 only, the New Christy M instrels will p e r ­form at the Camden County Mu­sic F a ir .

Tickets for the Valley Forge and Camden County F a irs can be purchased in Center City de­partm ent sto res . Beginning the following Monday and continuing for five days, the famous Mau­rice Chevalier will be at the Lam­bertville Music C ircus.

To s ta r t the month of August off, Dave Brubeck will follow Chevalier with a one day stay at the same location. “ TheChalk Garden,** a “ tantalizing come­

Needless to say, the above list­ing is an im pressive one, and if you*ll allow me to use my p re ­rogative, I say it*s a fantastic one. But no m atter where you spend your sum m er, be it in Philanthropic Philadelphia o r in the Badlands of Beiniit, I wish you the best . . . and that*s *bout it.

Shape and Pe r fo rm ance C h e ck e d

In the ir documented cases, NICAP looks for two factors, shape and perform ance. The m ost commonly sighted form seem s to be the disk o r flat­tened sphere . Next m ost com­mon is the sphere and these a re often the sm a lle r objects. Also a grea t number of s i t t ­ings a re reported to be tubu­la r and these com prise the la rg ­e s t of the UFO's. M ost a re r e ­ported to be m etallic in the day­tim e and at night a re m ost often said to *‘glow all over with a color nea r the red end of the spectrum.**

In the recent s i t t i n g s there w ere a str ing of reported red - w hite-green l i ^ t sequences but a f te r the pattern was noted the sequence changed. M r. B erliner added, **In the way of actions, the U FO 's seem to be capable of extrem ely high speeds even in our atm osphere, however, they have never been known to cause a sohic boom. They appear able to make violent m aneuvers in­cluding right angle tu rns and instantaneous st<^s. Often they a re noticed flying in a wobbling fashion.**

Many Seen On R adar

In many cases there has been m ore than visual contact. Se­v era l hundred have had rad a r confirm ation. On a very few, photos have been obtained. The NICAP organization adm its 6 genuine p ic tu res . O ther evidence consists of electrom agnetic ef­fec ts such as the in terfe rence of the e lec trica l system s of a c a r .

This so r t of thing has hap­pened in at least 200 cases and seven of these w ere within a few hours around a sm all town

Object of the game: To stay alive. P lay e rs : The p layers will be divided basically into two team s, each of which will have its turn at scoring and in ‘ ‘the Field,** While in scoring position, the team m em bers will be re fe rre d to by the officials as *<the sc o r ­ers** o r “ the drivers** and by th e ir opponents as many, many o ther things. While in the field, they will be re fe rre d to as “ the fielders.** The fie lders fall into two catagories - - pedestrians and dead pedestrians.Equipment: Each sc o re r will be provided with one 4,000 pound automobile traveling in excess of 60 m iles p e r hour. Each fie lder will be provided witha twenty-five thousand do llar life insurance policy and last r i te s . A ccessories Include group plan Blue C ross and flow ers.Field: The field of play at D rexel is generally considered to be Chestnut S treet from tlie ra ilroad bridge to 34th S treet, However, it is not lim ited to this, A good ru le of thumb to follow is that any place that is flat is a part of the field.

By Jo s e p h Stackhouse

Play: Play commences for mem­b e rs of either team when they en ter the field area. It ceases fo r pedestrians (fielders) when they a re ca rried off during in­te rm ission (3:00-5:00 in the mor­ning) o r manage to escape. It ceases for d rivers (scorers) when they leave the field area, (F or som e d rivers, however, it never ceases,)

Upon entering the playing area, a fie lder m ust try to go from the DAC to the re s t of the cam­pus o r vice versa . Many methods a re used. Among them are disguise (for example a walking f ire hydrant,) which makes an individual very popular with the local canine population) and fe r ­vent p rayer.

One enterprising player tried to walk a tightrope strung across the s tre e t but was knocked down by the ae ria l ladder of a passing fire truck . Another tried throw­ing DAC coffee on the d rivers. Unfortunately, he spilled some on him self. The d riv e rs must, upon entering the playing areas, attem pt to run down any fielders in sight (as weU as anything else that moves.)Scoring: P layers will be scored on the basis of general intel­ligence, style of play and lack of driving abiUty, Points will be awarded on a scorer*s style as follows:one lane d r iv e r ,. . .2 pts.sw erves......... ••••••• 4 pts,sk ids....................... 6 pts.uses ro ll bar a l o t ...b e rse rk ..................10 p ts.Points will also be awarded for number of pedestrians hit (one point apiece,) degree of injury, and style of hitting. Upon the d iscre tion of the officials, extra points may be awarded for spe­cial sk ill shown in hitting ped­e s tr ia n s .

Anyone attaining a score of 250 o r more points in a single tran­sit of the playing field will be adjudged a MASTER OF THE GAME and given a driver*s li­cense.

History: The game of Crossing Chestnut S treet Alive originated in 800 BC when Maximus the Stupid was trampeled by a herd of six million elephants. It gained a large following and by 100 AD was played in the Colliseum in Rome. The fielders in those days were known as Christians.

The sport was brought to America by one Obadiah Scrudge who was chased for sixty miles by a horde of bumblebees in I793 (Mr. Scrudge escaped byannihil- atmg the horde with a can of Flit He was la ter charged with comi mitUng insecticide,) in the fol- lowmg years the sport grew andp e w until in 1914 the international^u m am en t was held (World

After 11 months of operation. VISTA has done "better than the Peace Corps at a comparable stage of development,” Sargent Shriver. the man who until re­cently ran the Peace Corps, told a Washington press conference.

At the II-month mark. VISTA had 1.477 Volunteers in the field or in training in 39 states and Washington, D.C. That figure has now increased to more than 2.000 Volunteers.

During a comparable period, Shriver said, the Peace Corps had 820 Volunteers, either on over­seas assignment or in training. According to Shriver. VISTA plans to have 3,500 Volunteers in the field by June of this year.

"The Volunteers are the heart of the war on poverty.” he said. "In community after community they have shown that deprived and isolated people are willing and able to make a new, con­structive effort with encourage­ment and skilled assistance.”

He pointed out that VISTA is seeking Volunteers from the ranks of the poor as well as from col­lege campuses. "People who have

grown up in poverty," he said, "have a special understanding to contribute.”

Shriver said. "The War on Poverty takes money. But money alone cannot win the war. Dedi­cated. skilled people are needed to bridge the gulf between the poor and the rest of America and to start the process of re­generation in America.”

Shriver also pointed out that the demand for VISTA Volun­teers is outstripping the supply. He said that a total of 7,831 Volunteers have been requested to serve in 577 projects in the District of Columbia and every state but Hawaii and Iowa.

son to the "initiative, commit ­ment, and adaptability of college students." These characteristics, considered highly important for the Volunteers, are "continually demonstrated by young college volunteers during training." he said.

"In tact," Ferguson said, "more than three-fourths of all VISTA Volunteers now serving in the nation’s poverty areas arc between 20 and 24. Of these, ap­proximately half have completed from one to three years of col­lege and another 16 percent are recent graduates."

Sargent Shriver. the War on Poverty director, said recently that the college trained "are bringing their gitts ot education and encouragement to the tene­ment alleys and back countrv roads. They have received one of the truly great benefits of our so­ciety— an excellent education. In VISTA they will be able to share this benefit with others and con­firm the humane values which our colleges and universities rep­resent."

VISTA Volunteers Go North of Nome

Fifty VISTA Volunteers have tanned out of Anchorage by bush plane and boat to man their war on poverty outposts among Alaskas isolated Eskimo villages.

One of the Eskimo requests is for Volunteers who know some­thing about improving the breed of Alaskan reindeer. If they can furnish some tips on preserving this season's catch of walrus meat, so much the better.

The 50 Volunteers are the first of 200 who are needed to help the state’s indigenous population of approximately 60,000 Eskimos, Indians and Aleuts who rank as the poorest economic group in the nation. Many of these families live on less than $1,000 a year. Half of the adults have had less than five years of school and nine out of every ten families live in substandard conditions.

The Alaska Volunteers took their training at the University of Alaska at Fairbanks, where they were introduced to village life and the customs of the people who are not only the poorest Americans, but also the most iso­lated.

• 77/c majority of the Volun­teers now work among the Eski­mos in western Alaska and north of the Arctic circle, but they are also found among the Indian communities and in urban centers such as Anchorage. I’art of their

training included special instruc­tion in how to prepare for long periods of awesome weather and for days without sun.

Requests for Volunteers poured into VI.STA’s Washington head­quarters from more than half of the state's towns and villages fol­lowing a letter from Senator E. L. Bartlett explaining that the Vol­unteers could help make the set­tlements “better places to live.” The letter was sent to all village headmen.

Eskimos are a tough people who excel at living close to na­ture. The Volunteers will assist them to participate in many of the state-wide service programs that operate under the direction of the Alaska Department of Economic D e v e l o p m e n t and Planning.

Speaking to the second con­tingent of VISTA Volunteers to be sent to his state. Alaska (uw- ernor William A. Egan told them that "the VISTA Volunteers who have preceded you into rural Alaska are already playing a sig­nificant role in the ell'ort to up­grade village life.

‘‘Some villages never heard from are now part of the Alaskan community of the whole because I'l the ctlorts ol V IS’I A Volun­teers. I or example, results of a recent electiiMi in one such vil­lage were brought to the attention

of interior Alaska residents through a letter written to a major newspaper by a Volunteer living there.”

• Pointing out that most of the Volunteers would be assigned to the western and northwestern areas of Alaska. Governor Egan said: "Here you will face a great challenge, perhaps the greatest of your life . . . if you did no more

than articulate the special, press­ing needs of these villages, you would be performing a great service.

“In no other situation would you have such an opportunity to use your own judgment and im­plement ideas.”

The Volunteers can be found performing a variety of wide- ranging jobs. They have built sawmills and taught music to Eskimo children. At Bethel, a Volunteer helped to construct a breakwater to prevent flooding of the village during spring thaws.

• At nearby Hooper’s Bay one of the Volunteers' main concerns is to explore the possibility of building a small “flash” freezing plant to help exploit the abundant fish resources in the area. The fish cannot be marketed now be­cause there are no facilities to preserve them.

Further to the north, at A nak ­tuvik Pass, a Volunteer has m an ­aged to get a tractor for the vil­lage to assist in hauling coal down from the mountains for winter fuel.

While doing all this the Volun­teers must spend a certain amount of time fishing and hunting so they can eat. Although certain staples are provided, the principal items of their diet will be the same as their Alaskan neighbor— seal, fish, reindeer, caribou and game birds.

The Volunteers have learned to pack ice for water, to ride a dog sled, and to memorize the recipes for reindeer stew and bear steak.

In many villages, the outstand­ing form of recreation is to greet the arrival of the mail plane. To help fill this gap the Volunteers are developing recreation pro­grams for children, youth and adults. They also encourage com­munity efforts to provide facili­ties for meetings, libraries, health services, and social activities.

• In addition they are con­ducting pre-school classes, tutor­ing students, and carrying on an adult education program. Other, projects include health, education and community sanitation pro-

| ; io r next year. . , , .I One of those who is helping is Patrick Krijaz, a recent graduate

|of the University of Minnesota, I who is now known around Gal- lliip. N. M-, as the “alcoholic I VISTA Volunteer.” Krijaz got I his title from the fact that he concentrates on working with al ­

coholic Indians, helping them to get sober, stay sober, and assume a productive role in society.

Elsewhere in the state, a six- sided, dome-roofed hogan is home for Karen Murkett, Nor­wich, Conn., who is spending a year of her life among the Nava- jos on their reservation near Lukachukai, Arizona. A graduate of Wheelock College with a de­gree in pre-school education, Miss Murkett drives a school bus some 30 miles a day to pick up her 15 four-year-old Indian students.

• Krijoz and Miss Murkett are typical of the first contingent of 218 VISTA Volunteers who have agreed to spend a minimum of a year on reservations throughout the country in an attempt to help the Indian achieve a measure of parity in American society.

The Volunteers now serve 49 tribes, which represent 50 per­cent of the total Indian popula­tion in 16 states. They work with the Seminole, the Crow, the Navajo, the Sioux, the Chippewa, and the Apache.

In selecting Volunteers, VISTA places emphasis on the quality of the Individual rather than on specific skills. “We have projects for almost all skills,” Ferguson said, “but the most crucial skill of all is the ability to listen, under­stand, and communicate with people. This holds true whether the volunteer is a liberal arts major or an engineer.”

Liberal arts students who have become VISTA Volunteers set up libraries where none existed be­fore, renovate rural schools, teach adult literacy, tutor dropouts, sur­vey health needs, organize com­munity meetings, lead pre-school classes, help mothers in day-care centers, direct recreation pro­grams, c o n d u c t neighborhood clean-up campaigns, work with youth gangs and delinquents.

V i c e - P r e s i d e n t Humphrey, speaking to students at the Uni­versity of Minnesota, described the “special role for the college

students of today in VISTA.” He called college training the key to service.

“Help clean up own own back­yard,” he urged. “We all owe something, everyone of us who is privileged to have an educa­tion. We owe something to the society that made it possible for us to have this education.

“The easiest thing for this rich country is to dole out cash,” he continued. “What is more ditli- cult is to be able to extend the hand of fellowship, the hand of assistance, the hand of education, the hand of training, to help peo­ple slowly but surely lift them­selves.”

The Vice-President said he be­lieved that by spending a year in service to America, VISTA Vol­unteers will dramatically alTect their own lives as well as the lives of the poor.

“You have the opportunity,” he said, “to test your skills and principles in the service of your

fellow man under conditions which will give full scope to your abilities and imagination.”

A year in VISTA oilers uniciue practical experience to the stu­dents who plan to return to col­lege, continue on to graduate school, or pursue their carecrs. Through work in widely varying fields. Volunteers often discover interest in careers which lead to the further study of medicine, education, social work, public welfare, law and public adminis­tration.

Living and working among the poor in such places as Kskimo villages, Appalachian hollows, Indian reservations, and city slums proves to be a powerful exper­ience in learning and understand­ing for most Volunteers.

Although their primary task is to add a new dimension to the lives of the poor, most find that after their year is up, they have added a new dimension to their own.

A challenge to VISTA—and the nation

between Nashville and Knoxville, deep in the mountains, it once was a flourishing mining town that boasted a movie theater, a telephone ofTice, and a depot where the trains stopped twice a day to load coal.

• But the mines gave out more than ten years ago and most of the people have moved away. The railroad tracks are overgrown with weeds and the theater and telephone otVice have been razed. A schoolhouse still stands but it was abandoned two years ago when the supply of pupils dried up. Those children who remain rise before dawn to catch a bus to the school in Clark Ran«e, 18 miles away. Few from Davidson

finish high school.This lack of purpose is one ot

the major problems facing the five VISTA Volunteers who have been assigned to the community, ( ierry Hnglish, from Santa Rosa, C'alifornia, and Barbara McC o - laum, of Tucumcari, N. M.. have been working for nine months to give Oavidson a “sense ot com­

munity.”The main obstacle to their ef­

forts is indilTerence. Miss Eng­lish has observed: “They’ve lost so much. You insulate yourself against caring when caring doesn’t count. That's what’s happened here since the mines dried out.”

• The 261 VISTA Volunteers are working in 34 projects in eight states of Appalachia: Ala­bama, K e n tu c k y , Maryland, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, and West

Virginia.Ninety VISTA Volunteers are

living and working in rural Ken­tucky. They serve in 13 of the poorest counties of the state, which are among the 300 most impoverished counties in Amer-

Middlefork, Kentucky, is an­other Appalachian community. Once fairly prosperous, its major economic staples were coal and tobacco. But the coal ran out, and the big tobacco producers found better quality crops and cheaper transportation elsewhere.

Now Middlefork is left with 300 or so residents who support them­selves by subsistence farming and by selling cucumbers at 11 cents per hundred pounds.

Middlefork might have con­tinued indefinitely in this same fashion if it weren’t for Jean Honrath, a young, energetic VISTA Volunteer assigned to that community by her VISTA project sponsor, the Council of Southern Mountains.

In something more than nine months in Middlefork, Miss Hon­rath has made only a start toward alleviating the material side of the community’s plight. But in a less tangible .sense she has made large-scale progress in realVirming the self-respect of the community in its own eyes and in motivating them toward changing the con­ditions.

• A former student at Contra Costa Junior College in the San Francisco suburb of FI Cerrito, California, Miss Honrath de­veloped an early interest in work­

ing with younger people. She de­cided that her skills and tempera­ment would best be suited in helping to break the vicious cycle of Appalachian poverty at the children’s level.

She concentrated on Middle- fork’s children and not only helped to establish its first Boy Scout troop, but also ran a highly successful summer school pro­gram for more than two dozen local children aged 8 to 16.

Middlefork adults have re­ceived their share of help as well. Miss Honrath has organized a program so that unemployed fathers from the community can spend several days a week work­ing to improve the Middlefork school.

• She is self-efjacing when she speaks of her success in Middle­fork. “ I’ve only done what the community wants,” she claims. “ I’m far from overconfident, yet I’m optimistic at the same time. My guess is that what we’ve done will iast and grow.”

service. This is not meant to limit men from in tra-

help the coaches who give boys scholarships and work with them,only to have them quit when the time comes to join varsity.

In return, the school should provide more access to its fa­cilities, particularly the limited gym space. This should be ex­tended to the new gym, when com­pleted. In addition, the adminis­tration should h e ^ finance an expanded Intramural program which would include paid student referees and better cooperation from Buildings and Grounds.

Lack Student Support

Above all such troubles comes Drexel»s number one drawback in any field: student support. If the administration saw that athletics were a rallying point

for most of the students, there would be no hesitation to in­crease the budget for It would be well-invested money. The di­vidends would be many tim es the Investment in the form of alum­ni support.

With widespread student sup­port, athletes would be fighting to win spots on the team s, while fra te rn ities would not have to be asked to legislate the ir in tra ­m ural eUgiblUty.

But, alas, Pve been here five y ears and have heard the sam e appeals as long. Students never realize until too late what they have really m issed.

The Dragon baseball completed a d ism al (3-8) season this pas t week. In the two games played D rexel could only mange one victory. The Hawks of St, Joseph l>eat the Dragons by a sc o re of 8-5. In an MAC game D rexel finished the season on a winning note by beating Stevens Tech, 4-2.

Wednesday, May 18, St, Jo­seph’s ju m p ^ off to a 4-0 lead in the second inning and were never to be caught, A single and a hit batter, both with the bases loaded, accounted for th ree of the runs. John Butz, the Hawk pit­cher, lim ited the Dragons to on­ly five hits while posting his fifth win of the season.

Last Saturday the Dragons cap­italized on fielding m istakes by Stevens to sco re the ir four runs. In the f irs t inning the f i r s t base­man committed an e r r o r on a ball hit by Dragon centerfie lder Dan D errian . Dan scored on the play as two m ore e r r o r s were made.

team The only highlights of the sea ­son w ere a few individual ac­com plishm ents. The Dragons had five p layers who managed to hit .300 o r better. They were Bill Steck, Tony P iersan ti, PaulS tut- zenburg, John Ward and Doug Groves. Bill, Tony and John are only sophomores and coach Jim Brown is looking forward to hav­ing the ir big bats returning for two m ore years.

In the pitching departm ent it was practically a one-man show, John Ward finished with a 3-5 reco rd , Keith Larson and Doug Groves, the o ther two pitchers, finished with records of 0-2 and 0-1, respectively. John pitched about tw o-thirds of the innings during the season.

Only th ree p layers completed the ir eligibility this year. Play­ing the ir last game for Drexel w ere cen terfie lder Dan Dorrian, r igh tfielder Paul Stutzenburgand f i r s t basem an-pltcher Doug Groves. With the addition of some good talent from the freshm an squad, the Brownmen should re ­turn to the winning tra i l next year.

D r e x e l N e e d s A t h l e t i c P o l i c y

Another year has almost past, carrying with it many words of critic ism and defense for Drexel services and policies. Finally last week, a long sub­merged controversy came to the surface; Drexel athletes and ath­letics.

Involved Situotion

The controversy is quite com­plex, involving students, f ra te r ­nities, athletes, the athletic de­partm ent and the Institute’s ad­m inistration. Each of the p a r ­ties is interrelated with the

of the week TKE defeated p re ­viously unbeaten PKP. PKP and TKE now each have one loss and tra i l undefeated TEP by one game. The TEP-PK P game will probably decide the Gold League

representative in the champion­ship game.

SP 14 BN 2

Defense was the key factor in this game. SP backed up pitcher Gary Kemp with a de­fense that wiU carry them right into the championship contest, BN, however, completely fell apart in the field and allowed ele­ven unearned runs.

L arry Noble and Fred Richard­son led the offense for SP, each getting key hits with runners on base. Joe Lentz and Bill Hud­son pitched well for BN.

Others, causing a hopeless s itua­tion.

Any attempt to ejq>lain the in­volvement would re su lt in con­fusion. Let it suffice fo r now that each party has somewhat legitimate problem s.

The feeling here is that the grea test difficulty is that the adm inistration has never made any statem ent as to the d ire c ­tion and purpose of our ath letic program . Not only do the stu ­dents not know, but the coaches don’t either!!

Year by year, higher ca libe r opposition has ^ e n included in the schedules. Meanwhile, the ability and means lo re c ru it ath­letes has not changed signifi­cantly.

This is not an appeal fo r an accelerated athletic p rogram , but simply for a feasible policy with sufficient funds and faciliU es to implement it. Most of a ll, to have this policy at least brought to the attention of the athletic department.

N eed for Compromise

A nother p a r t of the situatic is the student-athletic depar m ent relationship. A number s tuden ts participate in freshrad a th le tics , but never join the vai s ity the following year.

Students* reasons vary fi lack of tim e, need for financij aid, fa ilu re to get along wij coaches, o r they just don't wa to play . Coaches feel in ma in stances the fraternities dra the m en away, sometimesonpui pose, with the opportunity f<] m ore recognition than on school’s team .

Experience has proved boj viewpoints to he true — depenf ing on the case . This calls f(| a com prom ise between the at le tic departm ent andthelFCouil cil fo r the sake of advanciil D rexel ath letics.
