Editorials

Another success Tonight "Once Upon A Mattress" opens in Dobbs Auditorium

for a three night run. The students involved in this production have spent a great deal of time rehearsing, building the set, selling tickets, making costumes, and performing other necessary duties.

The HTN urges all members of the student body, faculty, and administration to take advantage of this opportunity. The play is professionally done in every aspect.

We congratulate the Fine Arts Division for another well- done job, and hope that everyone will place seeing "Once Upon A Mattress" above all else in planning their weekend. (HMD).

Instructor turnover—why? Of late, there has been much discussion concerning the high rate

of instructor turnover here at LaGrange. It is the opinion of a few students that LaGrange College should revise its policy toward its instructors in such a manner that this rate of turnover might be lowered. In placing this responsibility on the administration, students fail to consider one variable themselves.

The administration has not been neglectful in providing for the < faculty. If our instructor turnover rate is not in proportion to other institutions of higher learning, student lack of preparation could be a contributing factor. Regardless of the quality of the Instructors' working conditions, lack of preparation on the part of the student will do much to offset anything done by the ad- ministration to keep the faculty satisfied.

A high rate of faculty turnover can reflect on the academic standing of a college. However, the attainment of academic excellence is not only dependent upon competence among the faculty and administration, but also among the students. (RRB)

LC's pig pen The student center is an eyesore to our entire campus. There

always is trash on the floor, none of the chairs are intact, the tables are invariably sticky with melted ice cream and spilled drinks, the ping-pong tables were obsolete with the turn of the century, and the walls and floor are stained and filthy.

Dr. Henry said last week he is saving the necessary money to completely refurbish the student center; "make it into a nice place that all of the students can be proud of and enjoy. " Na. turally, he is somewhat reluctant to spend this money, when he sees the way we take care of our present student center.

Therefore, it is the student's responsiblity to insure refurbish- ment of the student center in the near future by keeping it clean now. (HMD).

campus that this newspaper was dissolved last week are unfound- ed - - • as you can see. The HTN is as firmly established as The Methodist Church.

Prepare yourself for the com- ing of the Johnson-Malone book purchaser.

Happiness is seeing "Once Upon A Mattress".

Happiness is not having to pay for dorm damages.

Happiness is a styrofoam cooler during spring quarter.

Happiness is our new ping- pong net.

The registrar's Office has informed us that "Mt. Everest" WAS a registered student^dur- ing his stay here.

We look forward to hearing: "I's finnaly done got inta La. Grange, an I's yo' nu room- mate . . . Say, canya git me a date tonight?"

Why dues the daytime watch- man carry a gun on his hip? You'd think we had draft-card burners, a Du Bois Club, and a local chapter of theSexualFree- dom League on campus; and KKK rallies taking place on Vernon Street.

The administration has re- quested that the term "mystery letter" be excluded from stu- dent's vocabularies. They say, "It' s not as though we throw a sack over someone's head, pull it off, and expect them to have disappeared."

The latest from the library is that the old ping-pong net will be encased and placed on exhi- bition very shortly. Imagine the fond rememberances the "girls" in the class of '02 will have upon seeing their class gift on display.

Happiness is ridding the cam- pus of the atrocious looking hot dog stand.

Happiness is a vote of con- fidence from the Publications Committee.

Our past associate editor has not forgotten The Friends he left behind at LC, in fact we hear from the "Pied Piper" quite often.

Exerpts from his letters as he makes his way to California seeking his fortune are:

The Kit included one late model Chevy, $200 in cash, two gas credit cards, a note book with names of peo- ple to see about jobs, one road atlas, one set of U.S. maps, miscellaneous orders, in-

structions, and lots of advice." From Pittsburg: "I'm stay-

ing in one of those Howard Johnson's Motels and went to eat at the restaurant next door.

• My mistake. Just as I walked in, two chartered buses full of South Americans arrived. Most of them couldn't speak English. Result: it took about two hours to get supper. Alas, for the bygone days of Campus Chefs Inc."

White describes D.C. trip

many of the factors that con- trol not only the United States but the free world itself are regulated in Washington, the city becomes almost a "super- city."

Behind their gray facades, daily decisions are made that reflect the collective opinion of a majority of the residents of the United States. Between C and D streets stands one of the most singularly important buildings in "D.C." Much of all that foreign countries know of the United States is channeled through the Department of State.

Impeachment ? By JOHN CLERKE

It has been said that in the spring a young man's fancy turns' to thoughts of love, but this spring seems to be proving some- what of an exception. I am sure that many boys and girls are spending time seriously con- sidering the present student go- vernment. This increased atten- tion should yield a stronger and more informed SGA. But, I won- der.

Not long ago each class elect- ed representatives to the legis- lative council, but how many students now remember the names of those elected? In or. der to develop better communi- cation between students and re- presentatives there should be a posted, permanent list of all SGA officials. There should be some way for students to readily find who their representatives are. This would certainly help the communication between students and SGA.

Likewise, it would be helpful to the students if the time and place of all SGA meetings was announced. In this way in- terested students might attend and see their government in ac- tion. I do not believe that many meetings should be "closed door." These are our represen. tatives, doing our bidding, and we have a right to watch this student-organ in action.

Communication between the higher officers of the SGA and the student body is worsening. Posting the names of the class representatives would help, but the problem with higher officers is more difficult. One solution that has occurred to me is a vote of confidence. Any rule which inflicts the "acid test" of the popular vote would cer- tainly cause a high officer to think twice before ignoring the cries of students. I suggest a pe- tition of 100 names to call for a vote of confidence and the procuring of a majority of votes in this election, with this ma- jority being at least 1-3 of the student body to dismiss the of- ficer. With this a special elec- tion could be scheduled for fill- ing the vacancy. A person should be allowed to run for another term, if it was felt that he could be returned to the post.

Other suggestions are: pro- gress reports submitted through the HTN of work being done; campus wide surveys of impor- tant issues such as smoking, drinking, and honor system; and, finally the setting up of specific days for all elections so that more students might be fore- warned.

These are suggestions that I feel need to be followed. I hope that the SGA will soon become a real "student government."

After Saturday's meet Coach Ronald Luke commented: "If the boys we have now come back next year, it will be the last time Berry wins,for we will win it next year." The Coach went on to say that he was very much interested in building a strong track team here at LaGrange. One boy who is a track star in high school has enrolled here for next year and the Coach plans to attend the State high- school events in the coming weeks to look for some additional pros- pects. Coach Luke also added that the LaGrange High-School has given the College permis- sion to use it's new track fa- cilities. This should enable next year's track team to be better prepared and give the students here at the College the chance to support their track team b> seeing it in action."

Deficiencies discussed

BY BOBBY PAYNE Last week, Dr. C. Lee Har-

well, Academic Dean, stated that, "The number of deficiencies is alarming in that there were too many. One hundred and fifty two students received deficiencies at mid term. A student who has two or three should consider himself in real trouble."

He went on to say, "I believe an early dose of spring fever has something to do with the large number of deficiencies sent out. My reaction is that most faculty members might be more strict on the grading now ra. ther than later in order to shock the students into putting forth more effort."

At a conference such as this (National Foreign Policy Con- ference for Editors and Broad- casters) once may not quote specific speakers or attribute remarks to a certain depart- ment, but you may say "High government officials or Wash, ington officials." By far the most discussed topic was Viet Nam.

As one speaker put it, "I do not think the United States can follow any other course but to remain in Viet Nam un- til asked to leave by a duly constituted government of South Viet Nam." Another sp'eaker criticized the mediator not presenting balanced news reports on Viet Nam. He said, "All I ever see or hear is about

there is much more being done and economic progress?"

Still another official predict- ed that aU-out air strikes against Hyphong and Hanoi would not win the war, but rather intensify the will of the North Vietnamese to win.

It is possible to draw some basic conclusions from the con- ference, chief of which is that the United States will not with' draw from Viet Nam until an honorable peace settlement is made. Most officials feel that there is no danger at present of Red China entering the war. Officials point to the long-seed- ed dislike of the Vietnamese (North as weU as South) for the Chinese.
