Another word of praise should be aimed at the dean of ins true­tion and the print shop. Like a whirlwind the print shop boys--Cecil Sullivan, Cedric James, Dennis Chandler, Jim Hurst and Rex Lokey--printed the Fall cla ss s chedules. About three days al-together •

Then before the usual problem could arise, Dr. Ernest Sturch s upplied the print shop with a room full of extra help to fold and s taple the schedules.

I wish everyone could see the work that goes into these things. They didn't even stop for coffee breaks. Think about it when you throw a handful on the campus.

Cruel? •

•

California was first. Other states are sure to follow suit. The death penalty will prot»bly be a thing of the past in a few months.

Capital punishment is being stuctied ln nearly every s tate in the Union at the present time. Many argue that for the courts to bang, gas or electricute a criminal constitutes cruel and tmusual pWlishment and the Coostitutioo protects American citizens from such a fate.

Of course, commoo seose tells us that the founding fathers were not talldng about the gas cbamber or tbe electric chair in that famous line.· They were referring to tarring and feathering, whippings with lead studded whips and castration a~ong other things.

But the Supreme Court bas the right of lnterp_retatioo ln !hese matters. It is their decision which will say whether 2oth century executioo is "cruel aad unusual,. .

One thing wbich must be considered, however, is the fact that crim­inals are deterred from committing capital offenses because of their fea.r of the punishment. U there Is no death penalty there is no real

Abolishing the death penalty is not the ultimat.e end of this lobbying attempt. It is just the beginning. Next step wt.ll be .doing away with long term prison sentences because the whole tdea ts to reform the individual. After that, why not do away with imprisonment altogether? It is indeed cruel to put a man in a cage and guard him with a gun.

It has been said that laws are made to punish the criminal and pro­tect the innocent. California is the first to defeat both purpos_es. If other states follow, it will be disasterous to the law abiding cttizen.

Jim MeG~wen

TwO ·s Two years ago two historic walks were made. One walk was given front page coverage throughout the world. Tlle

other was used to fill space i.n the comic section. The one that mos't people noticed took place on the moon. The other

took place on Alcatraz Island . . Seventy-eight Indians from about 30 tribes landed on Alcatra_z in San Francisco Bay, demanding that the federal government turn 1t over to them under provisions of an 1868 tx;eaty.

The federal government ibandoned its prison on the 21-acre island in 1963 and the property has been declared surplus. An 1868 treaty with the Sioux provides that any unused federal land reverts automa­tically to the Indians.

Their demands were not met. The American Indians must surely be the possessors of more worthless treaties than any other of the world's

' nationalities. The red man has been regated to life on the reservations and secon­

dary jobs for over a hundred years. He must be given not equal, but superior education and job training immediately.

It is inexcusable for a nation to spend $24 billion on a moon project and allow the rightful heir s of this country to live in poverty.

The U.S. has made great strides in the last ten years in helping the black man gain his rightful place in society. It must be remembered, however, that it took marches and demonstrations by blacks and others to get our attention.

The American Indian is now trying to make his voice heard. It is time to listen. Steve Seale

Presentation of academic and s pecialized a wards for achieve­ment will be May 16 at 9:30a.m. in Montgomery Auditorium, ac­cording to Dr. Ernest Sturch,dean of instruction.

"This will probably be the last time the assembly will be held in this way, 11 Sturch added. The assembly has traditionally been the setting for presentation of both academic and special in­terest awards. In coming years, special awards will be presented in meetings of the groups involved.

Sturch cited growth of the college as one reason for the change as well as the tendency for more organizations and de­partments toward involvement in the assembly.

A wards are presented annually to the outstanding member of each classification as well as scholar­ship awards to selected students in specific groups or departments.

Sturch added that deadline for notifying his office of awards to be presented is May 9. At that tim~ instructors should have the name of the award, the recipient and who will present the award.

Home Ec Dept Urges Daily Bathing

By SHIRLEY ROBERSON Would you like to be as fresh

as a Daisy? If so, then drop by the Home

Economics Dept. and view the win­dow display created by Aileen Pa.r­nell, a junior from Hugo majoring ln Home Economics and Anita Jones, a senior from Durant, also majoring in Home Economics •.

They have designed the window by displaying the cosmetics needed for good grooming, along with helpful proceedures to follow.

The proceedures are: a daily bath, brushing the teeth, nail man­icure, polished shoes and hair that is clean and attractive.

The display is a project of the borne economics class taught by Dr. Francis Revis.

a "coffeehouse" or "rap room" in the afternoons and evenings in the Beach RestonOceanAvenue.

" Through this outreaclled min­istry, we hoped to develop many new friendships with the students here on the beaches, and in that way shared our faith with them," commented Nathan Porter, South­ern Baptist Home Mission Board student evangelism director and one of the coordinators of the pro­ject.

"There is a real difference between zapping so1.1eone for Jesus and a genuine concern you must feel for them, 11 Dan Yearly, Baptist campus minister at Texas Tech University, Lubbock, Texas, said. "What we need to do is move people from indifference and hos­tifity to a place of searching. You must be able to give of your­selves to someone, not just give

Bill Bissell, a junior from SSC said, "I went for a new experlenc~ in witnessing. I knew I would meet students who were different. The students were real open IU1d friendly. They were really easy to talk to."

Mike Payne and hiswifeNancy, both students at sse, served as team directors for the students who were divided into groups of ten to talk to kids and work in the coffee­house. " I went to. learn," Payne said, " to have a different know­ledge of God's people and a tra1nlng in how to witness about Christ.,.

Jana Grider, Oklahoma City freshman said, • 'It rained the whole time, but we really stayed busy and had a great time. We had so much fun, we never noticed the rain. The s ignificance of witnes ­s ing for the Lord weighed the fun."

Play Praise " To all the people who gave us their help and support, this national

recognition is their reward. " The quote is the essence of the grad­itude and pride expressed by SSC 's drama director, Dave Cook, in a recent interview over KSEO radio in Durant.

The comment and interview were prompted by a phone call a few hours earlier from Washington, D.C. The long. distance call confirmed the sse's drama department's hope of presenting their production " Of Mice and Men" in Washington, D.C. April 28.

The production was picked as one of the nation' s top ten plays out of 467 that competed in the American College Theatre Festival this year.

The drama's selection to the top ten was preceded by its' selection on the state level to compete in a regional contest with the best plays from Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas and New Mexico January 22 at Fort Worth.

The production' s standing from the regionals was further revealed by the invitation to present two performances of the play in the John F.. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C. with nine other winners.

The cast and crew have come a long· way, and they' re still going. They'll be . flown to Washington with all ell:penses paid. They'll no . doubt be followed and greeted by a host of YIPs and friends •

Some colleges can boast of sport championship and the like this year, but it 's an infrequent college recruiter who can tell of his college's drama production making a trip to Washington , D.C.

doesn't know who he is. There are days when be is a

sophomore speech-drama major at Southeastern. There are days when he is a disc jockey spinning records for KSEO radio in Durant. There are days when he is a basketball player in a benefit game. Tbere are -days when he is a hus­band and father.

And there are days wnen he is a hundred pound giant in ·a. ninth grade .production of Jack and the Bltanstalk. Complete with another hundred pounds of padding.

Most recently, Charles was George Milton.

Milton was the central charac­ter in John Steinbeck's powerful drama. "Of Mice and Men." The Southeastern State College dtama department , headed by Dave Cook, has .just won national acclaim for its performance and will shortly spend a week in Washington,D.C. in competition with other regional winners from across the country.

Chuck Warthen was named bes t actor in region five. The honor carried a $500 Irene Ryan scholar­ship and the opportunity to compete with nine other regional winners during the Washington trip.

A $2000 scholarship goes to the winner of this competition.

To a part time disc jockey a $2:ooo scholarship is a walk on the moon, bread buttered on bot£ s"ides. socks without holes.

Says Chuck. ·'Nobody ' needs that money more than I do, to complete my education, to take ca re of my family ... this time around I intend to finish s chool, no matter what. I love to act but I have to eat and for that reason • alone. I' m gonna be hard to beat."

Charles was born in Marietta, a scorpio of Octobe r 27, 1940. He attended Ringling High School where he participated in a full schedule of :.:tx :-t:;. Jt w:lS at Ringling High that Chuck met Jack Topping, one of the state's top drama instructors. Topping pushed the proper butlon and in­terested Chuck in the s tage. The love affair bas grown steadily and the best is obviously yet to come:

Tl).e first role was that of the giant in "Jack and the Beanstalk." Then came the major role of Moses in Metro-Goidwyn-Mayer's "The

.... Ten Commandments." Wfth per­mission of M-G-M, Topping re­wrote the powerful drama and Ringling was the first school ever to produce the play.

The national coverage from UPI and the AP fueled the flame and the die was cast.

In 1959, Chuck married his high school sweetheart and pack­ed his bags for SSC, He attended school one year, appearing in a Doris Simpson production of "The Matchmaker" before things went sort of blooey.

Out of s chool, first child, drift­ing.

Three years as a clothing s tore manager in Ardmore, another three peddling insurance In the same area. Then came four years in the service station business and all the time wanting to be back in school.

Warthen was out of school but not out of acting. The Ardmore Little Theater furni-shed ten dif­ferent productions during the wan­dering years. Most notable of these included " Mr. Roberts, " "Under the Yum Yum Tree, " and "The Man Who Came to Dinner."

'I:hen followed the divorce and the bachelor father scene. Chuck married Barbara Bellamy of Ard­more in December of 1970. Stacy, 10, and Karen , 9, complete the household at 709 N. 14 in Durant.

In 1968, Chuck went to Holly­wood fo r a screen test. He passed and was accepted in Tinsel T0\\'11, The only catch was a lack of money to wait out the proper parts. The bit par ts weren't enough to keep the stomach prope rly lined until tbe right people and the right parts came along. 1

So it was back to Oklahoma and eventually back to South­eastern. .

"Of Mice and Men" provide'd the showcase which might prove to be tile big break. At least it wi ll provide the na tional attention so necessary to get started.

How much time does acting r equire? How much does it inter­fere with home life? Why does one become an actor~· How high is up?

" Mice" was in rehearsal some five weeks . si.x nights per week. five to six hours per night. The play h-as been presented six times

· at sse. once at Fort Worth, Texas, in the regional competition with schools from Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana and New Mex-ico. ·· ~ . ' The memory work isn't a fac-tor ·with Chuck. It usually takes only a couple of nights, then tt's a matter of getting into the charac­ter. That's where the work comes

'

in. A bit too much and it becomes a farce. Too little and 'tt•s noth­ing at all. There is a fine line which each actor must es tablish for himself.

" It does put a strain on your home life," says Chuck, "but Bar­bara understands and that makes it easier. I tend to really become the character whose role I'm play­ing, even when I'm not on stage. Sometimes I won't even ans wer to my own name."

On becoming an actor, "1 don't think it's something you just de­cide to do. You either have a de­sire to act or you don't . It isn't something that can be forced. You have to want to be out front, not back in the crowd.

"I've never been nervous on stage. I don' t really notice the c rowd, at least consciously. I'm aware of them out there and I play to them but it isn' t a conscious act."

For Chuck Warthen, the future is in sight. The low point was after leaving Hollywoodandthede-si re is still there to make it in the big time. The odds are against .... it, though, and Chuck knows it.

" I'll probably end up teaching, college preferably, but I'll pro­bably start in high school. For that reason I kinda hate to grad­uate. That means teaching in­s tead of acting."

But first things firs t. There's the matter of the national com­peti tion in Washington, individually and with the cast of · 'Mice."

The challenge is terrific and I just hope we can give our best performances, " says Warthen,

" we have excellent talent and Dave Cook is som~thing else. so we should do alright up there. I don' t feel we should take a back seat to anyone."

Neither does anyone who has seen the SSC production. It's a big step for a small school, a s tep in the right direction.

And it could be the fir st step toward a great new career for a superb actor, Cha rles Warthen- ­whoever he happens _to be. •• , ~&~

rad-Returns To SSC ire Future Teachers

By B.A. LINDGREN

A 1950 graduate of SSC re­cently returned to the campus for the second consecutive year to in­terview graduating seniors for positions in the Tulsa School System.

J.W. Hosey, elementary prin­cipal of Peary Elementary School, Tulsa, returned to his alma mater to interview elementary appli­cants. He was accompained by Johnson Lee, Emergency School Assistance Programs Officer for the Tulsa Publlc Schools, who interviewed secondary level apl­licants.

The pair interviewed approxi­mately 35 students during their two days on the campus March 7-8.

When interviewing applicants on the elementary levels ' Hosey likes to ask their opinioo on a number of topics related to the field. " People have a lot of ditrerent ideals," he said, "per­haps no single ideal is the best."

Some of the basic questions involve opinions . concerning <Jen space schools concepts , grouping students according to learning levels- and working in a low ec­onomic opposed to a more affluent area.

Hosey said he liked to ask how the person feels about work­ing in a completely integrated school system . lesson plans and his attituc1e about attending inservice mo?etJngs after school hours .

' 'Since Tulsa is un, o( the larger cities in Oklahoma," Ifosey com mented," we like to know how they feel about liviug in a larger d ty. "

In reference to the teacher s uperintendent feels that the prin­need, Hosey explained, " At the cipals should have a part in there­elementary level right now, we cruiting, so they are scheduledfor are looking more for teachers in visits through the Tulsa public special education classes to teach school system and have employed the educable mentally-handicapped many of our outstanding grad- · child. uates."

Dale Pardue, a 1971 graduate of ~sr.. is back home after a one ; ... ,nester stay at Kansas State University.

After some persuasion l>y Arnold Walker , head of the physical science department , and the men­tion of a job, Pardue is back on campus supervising the organic chemistry laboratory as a graduate assistant.

Pardue felt insulted but man­aged to grin at the mention of being closely related to the purple power of K -State but tradition of wearing purple at the Kansas school had its influence on his wardrobe .

Pardue feels that the big uni­versity has nothing for the down home kid. A farm boy all his life and a graduate of Bennington High School , he feels that he "wasn't cut out for a big college. •·

He says there is not enough personal contact between facult) and students in a large university. " Here at SSC the profs head their own labs and give individual attention when students really need it."

Une fault he recognizes in the chemistry department is that "the instructors teaching duties are interrupted 'Aith outside duties ."

P:;,rdue explained that he spends most of his time preparing for the organic chemistry lab each week . His other job is being a g~neral flunky around the department.

he is earnestly seeking em­ployment in industr y or the teach­ing profession.

His favorite pasttime is TV. but he hints that football is his second choice and rock music is his third.

When asked what he thought about the new campus radio station, KHIB, he replied, "A lot of people like it or it wouldn't be here."

Finances are always a problem, and when asked how he could man­age school and married life at the same time, he answered, "My wife, Imogene. works in the print shop and I get paid under my graduate assistantship."

"Of the different colleges I have attended, Southeastern is still the best."

Faculty Here By JUDY PEERSON

sse's physics department is sporting a new face am~ its regular professors. Dr. James E. H~hes, of Sherman, Texas , has a 'temporary contract wit~SSC while Lewis Barker iS' oo leave working on his doctorate.

Hugt'les is a graduate of North Texas State University in Denton, Texas. He has a B.S. in mathe­matics, an M.S. in physics and an Ed. D. in educational audio visual. He completed a pile ser­ies of six films .fn connection with his dootorate in August of 1971.

He was a professor or physics and mathematics at Austin col­lege in Sherman, a · research scientist at the University of Texas in Dallas and professor of physics at North Texas State University.

Explaining why he came to sse · Hughes said. "I live at Sherman

and I wanted to pursue the com­pletion of a series of films for the phys1cs laboratory while maintain­ing my residence in Sherman where my film laboratory is located."

H uglies mentioned the purpose of his films in relation to students. "My objective is to generate an open physics lab which provides students some choice .concerning what, when and how they study. This is best accomplished when stqdents receive individual in­structiC¥'1 through sound motion pictures."

In connection with his film pro­gram. two major equipment manu­facturers have offer~q)o -suppq their products' for tif.s use. in these films. ·

Hughes has no definite plans for the coming year but he say,s where­ever he is he will continue his work on his film program.

In comparing sse with larger wtiversities, " My students here are among the most academically se rious that I have ever seen."

" Tbe advantages of a 'wtiversity are largely off-set at a small college by a closer identity be­tween teachers and students t)lrougl)out the community." ~ Hughes and his wife Sara, have ~esided in Sherman for 15 years with their four children, Don 21, a pre-med major at Nort11 Texas State wtiversity; Danny 16. Brian 14, and Rita 10.

Hughes' hobbies include metal shop, woodworking. bridge and chess.
