Help Wanted Complaints are received constantly because The Breeze does

not always print the available, timely news of your favorite organi- zation or club.. Yet, with proper cooperation, this situation easily

can be alleviated. - Our procedure for coverage of news is not fool proof! Assign-

ment sheets are posted a week in advance of each publication of an issue of The Breeze so that the reporters will have enough time to make the usual half dozen trips necessary before being able to con- tact the persons with the information needed for a story.

Information for the assignment sheet is obtained largely from the calendar of events in the Dean of Women's office. In addition, the editorial staff pools their knowledge of coming activities.

Now, our position ought to be clear! If a meeting, election, or event is to take place which has not been registered on the calen- dar—or if no one on the editorial staff happens to be affiliated with the organization sponsoring a news-worthy activity, then the event is not covered by a Breeze reporter.

However, on campus there are few clubs or groups which do not carry on its roster of officers a reporter. It seems it would be'a reporter's duty to her office to assume the responsibility of inform- ing the newspaper staff of forthcoming club events far enough in advance to insure proper coverage by a staff reporter. This can be done merely by putting a note with the essential remarks con- cerning the event in Box 28 (no postage necessary) or by leaving the information on the editor's desk in the Breeze room. (News copy must be sent to the printer Tuesday night in order to dis- tribute The Breeze Friday night.)

This arrangement should not over burden anyone. It certainly would be a great help to The Breeze staff, eliminate disappoint- ments because of uncovered news, increase school spirit, and en- hance the effectiveness of our school paper. ,

Let's all "get on the ball" and help make The Breeze the kind of paper you, the student body, wants—a paper including stories about your groups and your current activities.

Unsung Heroes When a student attains the scholarship goal of a 3.25 average

which grants him, or her, the privilege of unlimited cuts, his aca- demic achievements has thus been acknowledged in such a way as to challenge him to continue the standard.

But for the student who acquires a scholastic index ranging between 3.00 and 3.25, there are no rewards, no recognition of the outstanding ability displayed. Needless to mention that at some in- stitutions such as Washington and Lee University and Mary Wash- ington College, students with a minimum average of B are eligible for Dean's List

If a student with or without a C average, 2.00 index, is to re- ceive a blanket grant of one cut per class credit, it hardly seems justifiable for the student with a B average or better to obtain no greater recognition for much greater achievements.

Surely a plan should be seriously considered whereby the proper identification should be made of these "Dean's List border- lines". If a Dean's List pupil is in such a situation as to warrant him the privilege of unlimited cuts, why then 'wouldn't the B pupil be comparatively deserving of the grant of at least two cuts for each semester hour of credit?

Certainly such a revision of the present cut system would offer more incentive for the B student to continue his good record, and make him feel as if his accomplishment has been worth the time and effort that was necessarily required for his achievement.

Madison's Own Lincoln Shootin' The

Breeze

Service With A Smile

Calmness, efficiency, and a warm

friendliness personify Mrs. Anne Lin-

coln, who in Alumnae Hall, serves as

secretary to Mrs. Wilkins, and also as

a personal problem counselor to many

Madison girls. Celebrating her anniversary with

Madison just this past September, Mrs. Lincoln has been in her present position for fourteen years. Prior to that time, she was concerned primar- ily with providing a home and raising her two sons, both of whom are now married.

Residing here in Harrisonburg, Mrs. Lincoln's spare time is consumed with church work, crocheting, bridge, and flower arrangements for which she professes a deep liking. To quote Mrs. Lincoln "there comes a time when I must smell paint." This problem is usually solved for her by taking paint brush in hand andj proceeding to paint anew the walls of her apartment.

Before coming to Harrisonburg some years ago, Mrs. Lincoln lived in Warrenton, Va. and received her ed- ucation right here on our own be-

loved Madison cam,pUs. Following this she taught in an "honest-to-goodness one-room school, whicn included seven4»•***»*-—rend A. Purnell Bailey

grades." One interesting fact that Mrs. Lin-

coln recalls is that one of her fifth grade students grew up to become a very prominent woman doctor. A- mother rewarding aspect of her former teaching career is that many mothers' instructed by Mrs. Lincoln are now sending their daughters to Madison.

Reflecting upon her past years of experience here at Madison, Mrs. Lin- coln feels that she can truly state that within the last few years the incoming students have appeared to be more matured in manner and action.

Her close contact and association with the students is one of the factors that Mrs. Lincoln values most about her job. "I particularly like for the students to feel that I am their friend and want to know and understand their problems."

It is this understanding and sincere friendliness that has commanded for her from all students a feeling of love, respect and appreciation.

Again this week I have more scholarships to announce. These new arrivals include such fields as science fellowships, civil service exams, and study in Scandinavian countries. Hope you students are following these re- leases closely. There are fabulous op- portunities for continued study after graduation and in terms you can't af- ford to turn down. I

Several social functions in the past week were received quite well. Alpha Sigma Tau held an open house Oc- tober 12 for the five other campus sororities on campus. At this time they gave tours of their new home, Zirklc House.—The preceding week- end the newly elected district presi- dent of Alpha Sigma Tau visited Psi chapter. She was entertained with a Coffee given by the Panhellic Council.

Another successful "opening" was Lola Jones' "open room" at which she displayed her newly decorated living quarters.

Goodness gracious, it hardly seems possible that I have more than half of my student teaching behind me; time really flys when one is enjoying what he is doing, and believe me, I really am enjoying, it. w Since I am one of those fortunate music majors, I have two wonderful supervisors, one in elementary class- room music at Claremont Elementary School, and the other in instrumental music at Wakefield Junior-Senior High School. There is absolutely no place like Arlington County: the schools are very modern, spacious, and well kept, and may I add, "filled" to capacity. Wakefield High School, completed and dedicated in 1954, has 2,500 students (built to accommodate 2,000r and a teaching staff of about 120. The first week or so I actually felt lost in so large a school and decided that I needed roller skates if I ever were going to cover the four acres of floor space. Best of all, you can get almost any materials that you need just for the asking. Everyone is interested in our work, reactions and interests. Ap- parently they are anxious to help us in any way that they can, whether my making suggestions or by provid- ng transportation to numerous activi-

ties or points of interests. I can truthfully say that I feel like I "be-

Each day there are some new ex- periences or problems confronting me, most of which are not difficult to solve. It really is a wonderful feel- ing to have classes that "will try anything once." I shall never forget the day that one principal visited me nor the time when Dr. Gildersleeve first observed me. No, it was not an ordeal (far from it), but a most valu- able experience.

All the goodiness of the jazz age is caught in this* technicolor filming of two young chicks, just our age, struggling along in show business.

Educators Consider Crisis Now Pending In Higher Education

Joint action of the Alumnae Asso- ciation of Virginia Institutions of Higher Learning has resulted in nine regional meetings to be held in nine various locations throughout the state. The University of Virginia, Medical College of Virginia, William and Mary, Radford, Longwood, Mary Washington, and Madison will be represented by alumnae of each re- spective institution.

Each meeting will be attended by alumnae, parents of students, and legislators, who will be presented by the president, or representatives of the nine institutions at these meetings. The chief motive is to discuss in gen- eral the pending crisis on higher edu- cation. Such issues as providing faci- lities for the greatly increasing number of those seeking a college education, money for the operations, and parti- cularly a plea for higher wage scales for faculty members are high on the list of problems.

. Dr. Walter S. Newman served as master of ceremonies at the first meet- ing on Monday, October 18, at Lee High School in Staunton; President G. Tyler Miller delivered the principal address, opening the session.

President Miller's address dealt di- rectly with those aforementioned prob- lems on a nationwide basis. The present percentage of college-age young people attending college is low in comparison to the expected great increase in the next several years.

As the series of meetings proceed, a panel of representatives from the nine colleges will be available to clarify questions which the audience may raise for discussion.

Every day is really crowded; ima- gine seeing 1,000 faces (ages six through nineteen) each week. Then comes "those Fridays" that we have the opportunity to observe in other schools and see their organization and facilities. —

Another asset of Arlington County is its accessability to Washington, it takes only a half-hour by bus. This provides all the enjoyable cultural benefits that anyone could wish for; concerts in Constitution Hall, Pan- American Union, Library of Congress and in the National Art Gallery: the Capitol; the numerous monuments; and museums.

On Labor Day a group of us took the barge trip on the C & O Canal; it is a mule drawn old time canal boat and certainly an interesting, enjoyable, and educational trip. If you ever get an opportunity, don't miss this trip.

By the way, if you think it is hard to get to an eight o'clock class, you should try to get to school by seven- thirty .... after all, high school starts at eight o'clock and lunch hour comes at eleven-fifteen. I will admit that it is grand that school lets out at two-thirty, even though I seldom get home before four-thirty. The only actual improvement that I can think of would be to make the day twelve hours longer, and not the school day, either.

wen old man weather may have thwarted the hockey game with Longwoc-d last Friday, but we cheated him and substituted Monday afternoon for game time. Tomorrow both extramural teams are scheduled to play Westhampton there. Westhampton was last year's winner in the first team game, 4-1, however they bowed before the second team, 3-1. Good luck for tomorrow.

Fall archery is in the tournament stage and five teams have been formed for competition in the last round-up next Tuesday and Thursday at 3:30. The team captains are Nancy Talman, Carol Humphries, Margaret Morris, Mary Saunders, and Sara Newman. From a look at the first scores it will be very close. In last week's shooting Carol Humphries and Margaret Morris came out first and second, respectively, in the range round at thirty yards. Carol was also tops in the range round at forty yards, while Sara Newton placed second.

Congratulations are in order to the new members of the Por- poise and Orchesis clubs. New Porpoises will be initiated next Wednesday night at 9 p.m. They are as follows: Ann Marie Clark, Carol Davis, Gayle Swanson, Mary Ellen Mason, Anna Hayes, Sylvia Painter, Susan Matthews, Martha Talman, Charlotte Gratz, Nancy Hyde, Betty Johnson, Gary Maupin, Nancy Talman, Bar- bara Lund, and Lois Hall.

New Orchesis members are Shirley Brankley, Kitty Kelley, Carolyn Evans, Dabney Sweet, and Eddie Broyles.

Hey, you gals in Jackson! Next Thursday night is your night for a splash party. Get in your bathing suit and come to the intra- mural water sports program of fun for you from 7:30 to 8:30. Whether or not you can swim there is something in store for you, so put away your books and swim away your cares. Splash parties for the other dorms will be announced.

Hockey Duchesses Stalemate Fir6t, Wi^ Seccnd

Betty Roberts leaves her opponents behind and scores the lone Madison goal in the tie game with Longwood played on the home field Monday afternoon. Three Longwood players are shown in a vain attempt to stop Betty as she places the ball behind the goalie. Both extramural hockey teams play Westhampton tomorrow at Westhamp-

ton.

Madison and Longwood's clash here

last Monday afternoon resulted in a

1-1 stalemate. Neither Madison's first

team consisting of Jan Bolen, right

wing; Betty Roberts, right inner;

Gwen Hockman, center forward; Mary

Lou Carroll, left inner; Betty Har-

relson, left wing; Shirley Stewart,

right halfback; Anita Webb, center

halfback; Carolyn Legard, left half-

back; Mary Anna Holloman, right

fullback; Mary Ashton, left fullback; and Tish Quarles, goalie; nor Long- wood's varsity to score during the first half.

Action during the second half picked up somewhat when Jan Bolen dribbled down the field and sent a long pass to the inner. Betty Roberts quickly picked up the ball and flicked for Madison's only score. Longwood re- taliated with a march up the field to the Madison cage. Richardson, of Longwood, scored to tie the game. Both teams fought for the winning score but were unable to break the stalemate before the whistle sounding the end of play.

The Purple and Gold's second squad in their opening game of the season Monday, collected a tally in the win- ner's column against opposing Long- wood College. Early in the first half, Captain Pat Shultz passed to inner, Joan Flora, who scored Madison's first goal. Joan Beach, dribbling into the goal, drove in what appeared to be a second score, but which was

called "no good" by the officials due

to an off-sides offense. A second goal

was scored late in the first half when

Joan Flora's drive up tht field and

into the striking circle was driven into

the cage by Shultz. Longwood inter-

rupted the Madison scoring spree with

a hard drive into the Madison cage by

inner Ann Hartman to give Long-

wood their first goal. Madison re-

ceived the ball again on the next play and set the scoring pace when Harriet Thomas, right wing, drove in- to the Longwood goal to give the Duchesses a 4-1 lead.

Jackie Poe, early in the second half, moved back from halfback position to fullback to replace Nancy Eubank who received a wrist injury while tackling an opponent. Jean Burns filled Jackie's position. Madison gained two more tallies during the second half when Shultz drove in both scores. Long- wood failed to score during the second half. The final score was 6-2, a Mad- ison win.

Line-up of Madison's second team was as follows: D. Sweet, right wing; J. Beach, right wing; P. Shultz, center forward; J. Flora, left inner; H. Thomas, left wing; B. Snellings, right half; N. Blunt, center half; J. Poe, left half; N. Eubank, right wing; F. Schottroffe, left fullback; B. Cooley, goalie; J. Burns, left half.
