Rose Giues $150 As Purchase Prize For Annual Art Exhibit
Friday, February 16, was the deadline for entries into the 24th Annual Wabash Valley Art Exhibition. Those artists residing within a 150-mile radius of Terre Haute were eligible to enter. Judging was held Friday and Saturday, the 16th and 17th of February, with formal exhibition beginning Sunday, March 3. In order to increase interest in participation, the ladies of the faculty have donated a purchase prize of $150 to the contest. Total awards this year will amount to $2,400, almost twice as much as in any previous year. Dr. Logan, a board member of the Sheldon Swope Art Gallery, announced that, at the judging, representatives from Rose wiil select and purchase a painting for our own exhibit.

GRADING SYSTEM CONSIDERED
Through the efforts of Student Congress and Tau Beta Pi an investigation is now being conducted as to the possibility of a new grading system on the Rose campus. Under the new system two new grades would be added to the present scale. These two grades, B plus and C plus, would count as 3.5 and 2.5 respectively toward the student's cumulative grade. It is felt that the finer breakdown would be more representative of a student's achievements.
A questionnaire has been sent out to all members of the Rose

Con vo Features Concert Music
The faculty, staff and students of Rose are urged to attend the convocation Tuesday, March 5, featuring the Butler University Wind Ensemble.
The program of concert music, which begins at 10 :30 a.m. in the Auditorium, will be under the direction of John Colbert. The wind ensemble is composed of students selected from the Butler University Jordan College of Music Symphonic Band. Instrumentation of the group is flexible affording an opportunity to study compositions from early chamber wind literature to the fully scored contemporary works.
The group has twice been honored with invitations to perform, with the ballet companies, for the Music Educators National Conference.
Included in the program for the Rose convocation will be the "Suite in A Minor," G. P. Teleman-Reed and "Satin Dell, Softly, The Chaser," arranged by John Dilkey. Concert selections will include "Toccata and Fugue in D Minor," J. S. Bach-Leidzen; "Symphony in BFlat," Paul Hindemith; "Dance of the Hours" from "La Giodonda," A Ponchh,lli-Morino, and "Pavane pour une Infante Defunte," M. Ravel-Thornton.
The Tuesday, March 12, Rose convocation will be by Ross Burgess, parapsychologist, who will speak on "Is Mind Reading Possible?"

ANNUAL ST. PAT'S DANCE SCHEDULED FOR MARCH 5
Onc,e again it is time for St. Patrick, patron saint of all engineers, to smile upon Rose's campus. That''S right, the St. Pat's dance is just around the corner. This dance, an annual event on Rose's campus is scheduled for March 8, between 9 :00 P.M. and 12 :00. As in the past,this dance is marked by the many men who have grown beards of various shapes, sizes and colors. The highlight of the evening is the awarding of the prizes for the best growth and the most unique growth of beard. This year Blue Key, who sponsors· the dance, has hired three local barbers to judge the beard growing contest. The dance will be held in the Hulman Memorial Union with the music furnished by the Madras. Tickets can be purchased from any Blue Key member or from the stand in the front hall. The price per couple is $3.00, but a dollar will be refunded to those students wearing beards to the dance.
Deming Basement To Be Conuerted
At the recent Board of Managers meeting, plans to convert the Deming Hall basement space were approved. According to Professor Irvin Hooper, Business Manager of :he Institute, the conversion will allow 25 students to live in the basement.
The dormitory was built in 1926 and was the first at Rose. In the past, the basement was used as a cafeteria. Since 1966 the area has been used as overflow housing after moving the food service to the Hulman Memorial Student Union.
The conversion will provide (Continued on Page Five)

LETTER TO THE EDITOR' Dear Editor:
I have always thought the quality of the professors at Rose Poly was superior, and was glad my nephew was attending Rose; however, I now have my doubts,
Recently (Feb. 2nd issue) I read an editorial by Peter F. Parshall, Department of Humanities and Social Science, which appeared in the Inklings,
While I am concerned over grades and am glad that Mr, Parshall is also, I feel that if he is serious in his proposition of bricking up the windows of the Union so that the students may better study and effectively use their time, that he may as well brick up the windows in the dormitories also. While he is at it, why not also install iron bars on the outside of all the exits so the students will have to stay in and study?
Mr, Parshall referred to "the fraternity boys" as students who want to "have a good time, get to know people, participate in sports, learn to direct an organization, etc." He also called the students who want to "read outside their field, who want to keep up-to-date in public affairs, who like to participate in extracurricular activities, and who will even date and play card!", trouble-makers,
It has always been my impres-
sion that "al] work and no play makes Jack a dull boy," After reading Mr, Parsha11's letter, it is quite apparent that I am an ole fuddy-duddy for my belief that a11 of these things Mr. Parshall was referring to with derogatory remarks are important and that it is not the purpose of a co11ege or educational institution of any type to turn out educated fools; rather, it is a place for the production of well-rounded individuals who are able to think for themselves,
Mr, Parshall's beliefs and attitudes are perhaps of the type needed at Berkley where the students are being guided by the far left, rather than thinking on their own, but such tyrannical ideas are NOT needed at Rose Poly,

UNDERGRAD RESEARCH IN MATHEMATICS
Rose Polytechnic Institute has received NSF support for an Undergraduate Research Participation program, This program is to give research opportunities for outstanding undergraduates who may pursue mathematics as a career. Students will be assigned problems or research areas depending on their interest and background, In some cases it is expected that the results will be submitted for pub-
lication in an appropriate journaL The program will last nine
weeks beginning about July 8, 1968, Each participant will receive a stipend of $60 per week (This "should" be tax free,) No credit will be given and no tuition will be charged. Room and board will be available in a dormitory at $35 per week
Applicants will be considered from all undergraduates with at least one year of mathematics beyond calculus and preference will be given to students who are now sophomores or juniors. Applications should be made as soon as possible and should include a summary of college mathematics courses with the grade in each and a letter of recommendation from a mathematics teacher,
Applications should be sent to Dr, Herbert R Bailey, Mathematics Department.
HS 349 Withdrawn The course History of Art and
Architecture (HS 349), which was offered as an elective in the recent pre-registration, has been withdrawn for the Spring Quarter, Students who elected the course are encouraged to enroll in Modern Drama ( HS 336) , a survey of drama from Ibsen to Anouilh and the major movements in contemporary drama, New enrollees in this course should make their intentions known to Professor Haist promptly so that text books can be ordered,

FAIL. PASS GRADING SYSTEM ADOPTED BY YALE
NEW HAVEN (CPS) -The Yale University faculty has voted to replace numerical grading with a system under which students will be given one of four designations for their work-fail, pass, high pass or honors.
The new system will begin next year and continue on an experimental basis for at least five years.
Yale's present system makes use of a grading scale from 40 to 100, with 60 as the lowest passing grade. The university at present compiles cumulative averages for each student, but it will no longer do so when the new system goes into effect.
The change at Yale is largely the result of recommendations made by the faculty's Course of Study Committee, according to Strobe Talbott, chairman of the YALE DAILY NEWS. Some student organizations have been working to end the numerical system, however.
Derek Shearer, head of the Student Advisory Board, said the new system "moves away from the pseudo-scientific claims of the numbers system." He added that "It should make for an improved class atmosphere, for there will be no more quibbing about numbers. There would, I hope, be more concern for the quality of a student's work in terms of his own ability."
Still undecided is the question whether or not the university's two academic honor lists - the dean's list and ranking scholar designation-are to be continued.
Talbott is hopeful they will be abolished, but indicated that the new grading system will have important consequences for students regardless of what is done about the honor lists.
When students apply to graduate school in the future, according to Talbott, "recommendations are going to be much more important than they have been. Graduate schools are going to have to look much more closely at what faculty members say about a student's work."
The new system is also likely to end the campus-wide competition for grades. A student's perform-

ance will be compared with the performances of other students in his department. At prestcnt, Talbott pointed out, students are
ranked by grade average in spite of the fact that some departments give generally higher grades than others.

faculty but actual results are yet to be determined. Pending the results of the poll, it is hoped that a trial term can be instituted in which the new grading system will not be in actual effect, but the two different systems used. The results will then be reported to a committee for statistical analysis.
It should be stressed that these plans are still pending, and that many other suggestions are being made. The possibility of a passfail system has been proposed and a system with a lower grade point division are both being discussed in Student Congress.

Nemours and Co. which will allow the department to fill needs and engage in activities not possible with funds already available, according to Dr. Sam Hite, professor of Chemical Engineering and acting chairman of the department.
The grant to Rose was one of six totaling $51,000 to six Indiana institutions of higher learning. A total of 145 colleges and universi-
ties shared in grants of more than $2.1 million in the 50th anniversary year of Du Pont's aid-to-education program.
C. B. McCoy, president of Du Pont, noted that the company was among the first to provide grants in support of the nation's educational institutions. "In l!ll8, as today," he said, "our primary goal was the encouragement and support of those components of the e d u cat i on a l establishment on which the corporation depends, directly or indirectly, for trained manpower and new knowledge. Strengthening the teaching of science and engineering is an important part of this effort"
FINAL VICTORY MARKS BEST SEASON EVER
Rose's Engineers completed their best season in the school's toundball history with a 95-86 tri· umph over St. Benedict's here last Saturday. The win elevated the Engineers' record to an impressive 18-7.
The contest was close throughout, but the Engineers held command as they never trailed by more than two points, which occurred during the first few minutes of play, and led by as many as 11 markers several times. Don Ings led the Engineer attack with 19 tallies during the first half, but St. Benedict's never quit and trailed only 47-40 at halftime.
At the outset of the second half, Lents caught fire for St. Benedict's to narrow Rose's advantage to three at 56-53. The Engineers met the challenge, though, and scored on nine of their next ten possessions to regain a 73-64 margin after a basket by Jim Pettee with ten minutes to play. St.
Don Ings tallies two more against St. Benedict's to lead in scoring with 25.
Benedict's could do no better than trade baskets with the Engineers the remaining ten minutes as they never again pulled closer than five points.
Ings led the balanced scoring for the E1ngineers with 25 and was followed closely by Pettee and George Shaver, 19, and Jerry Wones with 17 tallies. Lents and Inman topped St. Benedict's with 17 each.

FRATERNITY NEWS ATO
This past week has found the men of Alpha Tau Omega preparing for a full calendar of events these upcoming weeks. State Day weekend will be arriving just prior to the onset of finals-and with it a much appreciated end to those daily song practices! A highlight on the agenda will be the groundbreaking ceremonies for our recently approved on-campus fraternity house. A vote of thanks is in order here for the fine efforts of the alumni board and the school in finalizing this decision. Groundbreaking ceremonies will be held Saturday, March 9, 4 :30 P.M.
In the sports scene, two seniors rounded out their basketball seasons by totalling over one thousand points each in their four-year careers with Rose Poly. Congratulations to Brothers Dave Yeager and Jerry Wanes. On a lesser scale, major league basketball comes to a close with ATO at 5 wins and 4 losses. Turning to bowling, ATO dominates the major league, but is still struggling in the minor.
The brothers wish the best of luck to the pledge class who is sponsoring a car wash this Saturday, March 2, at Woodie's gas station on the corner of 25th and Wabash. We hope you will all come out to rinse away those Hw'inter blues!" An excellent job and a reasonable price are in store for all.
LAMBDA CHI ALPHA The brothers of Lambda Chi Al
pha would like to thank all of you who came to our calendar girl dance. Miss Sue Ridgely was crowned the first calendar girl queen for the 1967-1968 school year. We feel a fine time was had by all, and are looking forward to seeing you there next year.
We are also happy to extend the hand of fellowship to a new brother. This weekend saw the initiation of Brother John Nugent. Welcome aboard, John !
Our Minor II roundballers, headed by Brother Agal, wound up their season with a win over Speed. This brought their season record

to 8 and 1 which was good enough for second place in the minor league. Meanwhile, Brother Houdeshell's stragglers finished in fine form in a hard fought loss to the Off Campus aggregation. Elsewhere in the world of sports we find our bowlers giving their all in the bowling tournament. After one week of tourney play our major leaguers are leading their league while our less fortunate but scrapping minor leaguers are waiting it out in the cellar.

about 10 to 15 new rooms of a size comparable to those in the other dormitories. Laundry facilities, a lounge, and rest room facilities will also be included in the conversion.
It is hoped that the construction work will be completed in time for occupation in the Fall quarter of 1968. Finances are being handled through a self -liquidation loan which will be paid with money reeei ved from room charges of those living in the rooms.
SCHOLASTIC ATTENDANCE
(Continued from Page Four)
most 13.4 million were in high school, and about 6.1 million attended college or professional school. It is anticipated that the total enrollment will exceed 60.4 million by the fall of 1975 even though the rate of growth is expected to slacken at each educational level.
In the 11 years from 1955 to 1966, the number of persons 5-34 years of age who were attending school on a full-or part-time basis increased by an average of 3.6 per cent annually. The average yearly enrollment gain was 2.5 per cent in elementary school, 4.8 per cent in high school and 8.9 per cent in college.
By 1975 almost 8.6 million students may be enrolled in college, according to Metropolitan Life Insurance Company. This anticipates an increase of 2.5 million over their number in 1966, and will account for almost half of the expected increase in the tolal enrolled at all school levels.

THE BLEACHER BEAT
Last week Coach Leo Kelly made, in his words, "the toughest decision that I've ever had to make." He accepted the offer to leave Rose with Coach Martin to become the head line coach at Washington University in St. Louis this fall.
When questioned about what it was that made up his mind, Kelly said that the deciding factor was his "professional future." He has both his undergraduate and graduate degrees in physical education, and this position at Washington University will make him more active in his field. Kelly said, "The caliber of athletes here at Rose as opposed to Washington was not a factor in my decision. I don't expect to find a better group of students and athletes to work with.''
Kelly commented further, "I don't really think that I'll be happier at Washington at first. I enjoy working at Rose., and the small school atmosphere is great. But in, say, ten or twenty years I feel that I'll be more pleased with my career because I'll be settled into doing what I like best. Coaching."
Here at Rose, Coach Kelly is the head tennis coach and the line coach in football for the Fightin' Engineers. When not occupied with sports, Kelly acts as an assistant to Dr. McMillan in the guidance office. Needless to say, Rose will feel his absence come next fall.
Iowa Wesleyan Admitted
To Prairie College Convo Newcomer Iowa Wesleyan was
recently admitted to the Prairie College Conference without the approval of Rose Poly. The Purple and White Tigers of Iowa Wesleyan are located in Mt. Pleasant, Iowa, which is th" main reason why Athletic Director John Mutchner and former head football coach Dick Martin opposed I.W.'s admission. (This distance will necessitate an overnight trip for the football team.) Although the Engineers probably won't be able to schedule the Tigers of I.W. until 1970 in football, the other confer-
ence ·sports of basketball .and baseball will almost be completely scheduled by next year.
A Methodist college, Iowa Wesleyan has nearly the same enrollment as R.P.I., only coed -500 men, 400 women. Their admission into the conference boosts the school membership to six in basketball and four in football.
ROSE PROFESSOR ATTENDS SYMPOSIUM
Dr. Frank A. Guthrie, professor of chemistry attended the 21st Annual Louisiana State University Symposium on Modern Methods of Analytical Chemistry in Baton Rouge.
The symposium, from Jan. 22 to Jan. 25, was a series of short courses and conferences under the direction of the LSU Department of Chemistry in conjunction with the Southeast section of the Society of Applied Spectroscopy.
Program director of the symposium was Prof. James Robinson of LSU, with whom Dr. Guthrie conducted post-doctoral research last summer.
International in character, the symposium included speakers from Switzerland and England in addition to those from leading institutions in the United States.
Topics of current interest which were discussed included nuclear

magnetic resonance, selectivity in gas chromatography, for a healthful environment, interference spectroscopy, electro-chemistry using micro cells, specific ion electrodes, nuclear science and interpretation of the spectra of organic compounds.
STUDENTS SIGN FOR EUROPEAN SUMMER TOUR
Rose students are now signing up for a European tour and summer study program for 1968, according to Prof. Gordon Haist.
The program will include tours in four E·uropean capital cities and a six-week residence in Salzburg, Austria.
The tour, from approximately June 27 to Aug.17, will visit Rome, Vienna, Paris and London with stops at historic sites in France and England.
Courses in the study of the German language and in psychology will be available at the University of Salzburg. Each student will be able to earn eight credits toward Rose graduation requirements.

FROM THE BENCH byRickBrandt
The basketball season just ended could very well be considered Rose's best ever. Finishing with an 18-7 record, the team won more games than any previous Rose team. Infinitely many records have been broken this season. The team won the Prairie Conference title with an unblemished 8-0 recor d. Support by both the community and the student body has moved to an all-time high.
The season started out great, as Rose won three straight games to clinch Rose's first tournament championship in the PCC Tourney. Rose then placed second in its own invitational tourney, losing a squeaker in the final to Wabash for its first defeat of the season. Over the Christmas break, the team traveled to New York and impressed the fans there with successive victories over Queens College and Brooklyn Poly. As the winter quarter started the team was 10-1.
In what might have been the best played game of the season, Rose " defeated John Rinka and his Kenyon College teammates 87-86 for the
first victory of the new year. Rinka has since been named to the U.S . ~ Olympic Tryout Squad.
~ In the latter part ;)f the season, Rose lost to such teams as DePauw
'(: t- ..o and Earlham., but also posted impressive victories over Principia and - -; other conference opponents to finish the season at 18-7 and just miss
a bid to the N AIA tournament . Coach Mutchner's record at Rose now stands 56-47, with 32 of
those victories in the last two seasons. Special tribute is due the graduating seniors of this year's team .
. ,:.V-_ Dave Yeager, Jerry Wones and Jim Pettee, have been the foundation ·/ \ of Coach Mutchner's rebuilding program. They have led the team from ,, a 9-11 record their freshman year to the fine record of this year. They
have .done this against increasingly tougher competition. These three certainly rank among Rose's all-time stars.
Possibly the best way to show their value to the team is to show . ~ their career records.

NAIA TOURNEY PASSES BY ROSE
Meeting at Anderson last Tuesday coaches invovled in the NAIA Tournament picked four teams to battle for the title. Rose, represented by Athletic Director and Head Coach John Mutchner, was not among the four elected.
Those chosen included Earlham, Tri-State, Taylor and Hanover. Hopes were high that our Fightin' Engineers, who claimed an undisputed Prairie College Conference title with a record of 8-0, would be among the chosen.
A contributing factor to Rose's failure to win a bid certainly was the fact that key matches against Wabash, Earlham and Hanover met in def eat.
The Rose Poly Fightin' Engineers ended their best season in the history of the school last Saturday by defeating St. Benedict's 95-86 to claim 18 victories against seven def eats .
