It is reprinted here in its entirety in the hope that it will more fully acquaint Law rence students with the newly revised SEC Constitution. This Con stitution will be presented to the student bodv for ratification sometime within the next week. The full text of'the new Constitu tion and By-Laws will be printed in next week s LAWRENTIAN. “We, the students of Lawrence College, in order to cre ate and maintain a systematic administration of student af fairs, to provide for an organized student control of such activities, and to perpetuate the goals of Lawrence College, adopt this constitution.” This is the preamble to the new constitution of the Lawrence Student Body, approved by the Student Execu- tie Council on December 12, 1^00. The purpose of this meeting today is two-fold. First, I want to tell you about the changes in student government that accom pany the new constitution, and second, I want to discuss with you what might be the future possibilities of student govern ment here at Lawrence. However, before we approach these two topics, there are a few fundamental points which must be made. FIRST, exacUy what is student government? Technically, it is an organiza tion of students designed to serve and promote the best in terests of the Student Body. However, student government is really much more than this brief description. Student government actually reaches into every phase of campus life, organiz ing and financing many groups. Moreover, it is the communica tive means by which the ideas and problems of the students may be voiced. In addition, it plans, guides, and directs the social life at the college, spon soring d a n c e s and s p e c i a l events.--- These are the traditional du ties, this is what the student government is supposed to do. Now, the question remains—are these aims accomplished? The answer is NO! We accomplish a small part of the objectives I have outlined. Why is this? There are many reasons that I might give, but no real excuses that are not tired rationaliza tion. When I came into office a year ago, I inherited a stag nant organization which was hampered by an obsolete consti tution, an organization not de void of leaders, but devoid of ambition and vitality. I was concerned for the lack of en thusiasm and the lack of pres tige that characterized the SEC. Many of my friends asked me why I wanted to head an organ ization that “did nothing,” and I replied, "Wait and see!” Now we bring to you a new constitution, which represents a year of careful examination and preparation. We have written this constitution with the hope that an organization, powerful and meaningful, will be estab lished. I hope that this will be the solution to the organization al problem which lias plagued the SEC for the past ten years. I am confident that it will at least provide those seeds from which the organization should grow. This brings us to the purpose of the new constitution, why we have written a document which completely reorganizes the ex isting student government. In our analyses of the organization, we encountered many incongrui ties and contradictions of pow er in an unbalanced system. We found two basic problems facing us: representation and conflict of interest. The first problem centered on a representative system that af fected only % of the student population. Moreover, the means by which each representative was elected was usually a hap- Just what is this so-called Encampment? It is an opportun ity for Lawrence students and faculty members to meet for a short, but concentrated, period of time in order to discuss Law- rentian problems, interests, and aims and to consider the college community in the light of the larger world. The goal of those attending is to gain a perspect ive of the college's role in the community and to arrive at cer- tan solutions for particular Law rence problems. This year the Encampment will be held at Gardner Dam from Friday, May 5 to Sunday, May 7. Approximately 60 stu dents and 20 faculty members will be present. Students desir ing to attend will be asked to write a short petition stating why they would like to go on the Encampment as well as their own ideas concerning Law rence. These petitions will be distrib uted at a general introductory meeting on Wednesday, Febru ary 15 in the Terrace Room of the Union at 7 p m. The peti- tions will be due at 6 p.m., on Tuesday. March 7, to any member of the Steering Board. Those on the Board are Brenda Brady and John Dunning, co- chairmen. Judy Clark, Dick Cu sic, George McKann, Sarah Meyer, and Peter Wensink. The list of students and faculty mem bers chosen to attend will be announced after spring vaca tion. The group attending will he divided into several sections each of which will discuss par ticular areas of the general top ic to be announced at a later date. At the general meetings each group will report on its discussion and conclusion In or der that the entire group may better discuss the central topic. All students are encouraged to attend the introductory meeting on February 15. in order to be come informed better as to oth er pertinent details. It is hoped that each Lawrentian will take the opportunity to participate in this “airing, sharing, com paring” experience. Encampment W ill Be Held May 5» 6> 7 at Gardner Dam By SARAH MEYER 1 his is the first in a series of three articles concerning the Lawrence College Kncampmcnt. Each of the articles deal with one particular question. 1) what is the Encamp ment? 2) what lias the Encampment accomplished in the past? 3) what will the Encampment do in 1%1 ? It is hoped that these articles will foster interest, enthusiasm, and par ticipation in the Lawrence student body for the 1(*»1 Kn- campment. SEC PRESIDENT DICK CUSIC hazard process in which, all too often, really capable people were left out of the running in favor of those "who needed something to do.” In addition, communication, which is vital to any organization, frequently broke down in the representa tive system itself, the main com- muncating organ. The second problem centered on a conflict of interest created by the unbalanced system. Many of us agreed that the stu dent government organization should be the greatest force on campus. Our reasoning was based on the idea that it was the only organization into which every student paid money in which its officers were all-stu dent elected; and for which all students should be represented on equal terms. This, obviously, is parallel to the reasoning Lin coln used when he declared that government should be "of the people, by the people, and for the people.” In our deliberations, we con cluded that many of the great problems of the SEC could be solved if a centralized coopera tion among the student leaders was established in student gov ernment. All too often, overlap ping, short-sightedness of pur pose, and a conflict of influence in various spheres contributed to a basic weakening of the or ganisations Involved. In such cases, student governments were fragmented to a state in which effective administration could not be realized. Therefore, this is the thought and purpose which brought about the propos als which I wish to mention to you. I imagine you are saying to yourselves that this is a large order to fill. 1 agree with you, it is. But now I want you to de termine whether we have suc ceeded in our endeavors. We have conceived lour fundamen tal changes in the organizational structure. The first is the cre ation of two spheres of govern ment; the Executive Council and the Representative Coun cil, which are dependent upon each other, and which are the branches of what shall be form- ally entitled, The Student Body of Lawrence College. The Executive Council, some what limited in power, will con sist of the Presidents of the In ter-fraternity Council, the l*an- Hellenic Council, the Lawrence Women's Association, the Inde pendents’ Association, and the officers of the Student Body. The President of the Student Body will serve as the chairman of the Executive Council. The duties of this bo«ly are almost all advisory. Basically, it is in tended to solve the overlapping and conflict of interest, of which I have spoken, by establishing (Continued on Page 2) Campus Calendar F E B R U A R Y 12— 1:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.—Film Classics, "Shoeshine” (Ital ian)—Stansbury Theater. 2:00-3:00—Fraternity Forum—Union Lounge. 4:00 p.m.—Junior Piano Recital, Laurine Zautner—Har per Hall.

Professor Beck Publishes New Critique on Faulkner

an in Motion: Fau'kner’s Trilogy by Professor W ar­ren Meek of the Lawrence English Department will be published by the University of Wisconsin l*ress in October. The author of three novels and three collections of short stories, Professor Heck has turned to literary criti­cism for bis seventh major work. The book is a study of the themes, patterns, and art of Faulkner’s Snopes trilogy.

Beck began work on his criti­que of the trilogy during a sem­ester’s leave of absence from Lawrence in 1959 and continued it last summer. A portion of the analysis appeared in the I960 Spring issue of the Virginia Quarterly Review.

The book continues Professor Reek’s studies in Faulkner be­gun twenty years ago when he published a series of essays on Faulkner’s point of view, his relation to the South, and his style. These essays, among the earliest critical works to appear in praise of Faulkner, have since been reprinted in anthologies of Faulkner criticism.

Beck’s novels are Final Score, Pause Under the Sky, and Into Thin Air, all of which were pub­lished In England as well as in America. His three books of short stories are The Blue Sash, The First Fish, and The Far Whistle.

Beck's short stories have found their way into numerous antho­logies. His work has appeared in five of the Martha Foley Best American Short Stories Yearly Scries, in three collections of Midwestern writing, two volumes of religious writings, and one collection for college study. In addition, Miss Foley selected The Blue Sash to appear in The Rest of the Best Short Stories.

1915-50.

Professor Beck was graduated from Earlham and Columbia and holds an honorary degree from Earlham. At the end of World War II, he was selected for the faculty of the U.S. Army Univer­sity at Shrivenhan. England, and for many summers he was on the faculty of the Bread Loaf School of English.

a mutual, centraliied coopera­tion among student leaders.

Now. how is this to be achiev­ed? The Executive Council has been accorded certain powers and duties. The ultimate respon­sibility will be to coordinate student affairs in the best inter­ests of the Student Body, and to administer legislation by the Representative Council which affects the welfare of the Stu­dent Body. The ultimate duty of the Executive Council will be to discuss matters of mutual con­cern and to suggest administra­tive measures for the approval of the Representative Council. Again, the purpose- an advis­ory board of presidents design­ed to establish a mutual co-op­eration among orgiinizations.

The second branch of the new government Is entitle«! th«* Rep­resentative Council. Here wr have alt«*mptcd to solve the problems of e«iual represent* - U«m and communication. Mem hership will !>«■ dt'it'rminrd on a proportional basis, allowing each fraternity and sorority and the lndcp«'ndcnt association to elect one representative for ev­ery thirty upper-class members in the group. Th«* fr«'*hman class will 1m* repn'senU'd by a male and a female, elected by the class after the first nine wet'ks of school.

Now, what will be the effect «»f this change in representa­tion? In the first place, the role or membership of representa­tives will increase approximate­ly l li times. Representatives will be elected by a majority of the members of those groups represented In the second place, nearly equal representa­tion will be achieved for the first time.

Again what may be the pow- ers and dutb's of th«* Represen­tative Council? The real power of the over-a 11 organization will be Vi'sU'd in the Representative Council.

It will distribute the finances, select the chairman of its com*

Schneider Lectures On African Sojourn

Mr. Harold Schneider, Law­rence professor of anthropol­ogy, gave a lecture Wednesday evening. February 8 in Harper Hall consisting of informative slides and commentary on his recent trip to Tanganyika. His trip was supported by the Na­tional S c i e n c e Foundation, which is in turn supported by the Federal government. The lecture was a study of the eco­nomic system of the Turu, a group of people living in Tanga­nyika in East Africa.

The aims of Professor Schnei­der's trip were to find out the ways in which the Turu live; their economic and cultural structure in general and the economic and culture role of live-stock on them; the family and family relationships; and the many tribal ceremonies and rites.

Questions following Professor Schneider's talk provided more information both on his trip and on Tanganyika and its prob­lems.

mittees and legislate on all m at­ters pertaining to the interests of the Student Body. Here, I would like to explain two things. First, members of the Greek groups have expressed a con­cern for their autonomy in the administration of their respec­tive national obligations. The constitution is explicit in its stipulation of non-interference in the national obligations of groups so obligated. Both the Executive Council and the Rep­resentative Council may recom­mend improvement measures in this area, but they will have no power to act upon them.

Second. I have said that the Representative Council shall se- l«M'l the «'hairmen of its commit­tees. Our reasoning for this change is bas«*d on the falacies of the prissent system in which committ«*e heads are elected without qualifications, but on popularity. The r«*sult is the in ­effective atlministration of the committees. I'nder this new system, candidates will p«*tition the Representative Council for the chairmanships and must show a service p«*riod of one semester on the committee for which they p«*tition. The Repre­sentative Council will then se­lect th«* chairmen, basing the scl«M*ti»n on qualification, in- ter«*st, and ideas.

These are the principal chang­es we have suggested. There are other minor changes which you may encounter upon your exam­

ination of the document, but these will be up to you to con­sider. I have tried to bring you only the essentials with which you will be most concerned.

In the beginning, I said that we were assembled for two pur­poses today. The first, which dealt with the constitutional changes, we have now discuss­ed. The second purpose, which is more personal to me, in ­volves the future possibilités of student government on this cam­us, an expansion of its scope.

First, let us consider the na­ture of the student. Ideally, a student is a member of the edu­cational community, historically a center of learning and the source of human progress and a nation's hope. The student occupies a unique place in so­ciety. dedicating his efforts to a pursuit of learning and an ac­ceptance of academic disci­plines. The student knows the joy of learning and the satis­faction of fulfilling his respon­sibility to himself, his institu­tion, and society.

Again, ideally, where there ar«* stud«*nts, we have student government. It should be the recogiüi«*d self-governing unit on campus, repres«>nting you to the faculty, administration and community. It should be a demo­crat!«' organization, developing leadership and acting as your spokesman in the educational community, nation, and world.

Thus, how can these two ideals be brought together to aid and promote each other? You can aid by (1) actively participating in its programs. <2> by voting in student elections and fulfilling the duties of a re­sponsible campus citizen, i3> by bringing your opinions to the student government so that ac­tion may be taken through proper and effective channels.

(4) by critical participation in student government committees,(5) by reading about and study- in issues affecting students, and(6) by recognizing that the ef­fectiveness of your student gov­ernment depends on your active support and interest.

Earlier I spoke of the many traditional responsibilities that accompany student government. But, I ask you, what of the lar­ger responsbilitie«? Is there not an ultimate responsibility for the promotion of an "outside the classroom intellectual a t­mosphere?’* Is there not an ul­timate responsibity for the stim­ulation of student awareness of the so«*ial and political issues of our time? Should not the student

government be responsible for that part of education which takes place outside the class­room, along with the traditional role of student service?

Student government must as­sume responsibility in all areas, but within the structure and at­mosphere of the college, and without changing its basic char­acter. I ask you to consider this enormous field ahead, it is one which can reap many benefits.

I also ack you to approve this new constitution, and I challenge you to make really effective nse of the student government that will be established, to elect re­sponsible, qualified leaders in the future elections, and to be­come aware of and concerned with your responsibilities.

LOSE TO ST. NORBERTS

Lawrence lost a heartbreaker to St. Norbert’s in DePere In their final start of the first semester. The Knights rallied in the second half to down the Vikes 77-69 for their first non­conference loss of the season.

The Vikings started fast and took an early lead. Midway through the first half they held a ten-point lead. St. Norbert s cut down the lead to 37-33 at

halftime.With ten minutes to go in the

game. St. Norbert’s took the lead for the first time. Law ­rence then began to foul, and the Knights increased their lead from the free throw stripe. Three Viking starters were lost via the foul route. Joe Lamers. Jim Schulze, and Chuck Knocke all fouled out. In the entire game. Lawrence committed 22 fouls whle only 13 were called against

St. Norbert’s.The Lawrence scoring was

balanced with four men in the double figures. Jim Rasmussen led with 16 points, followed by Knocke with 13. Schulze tallied 11, and Marty Gradman. giving his best performance of the sea­

son, added 10 points.

When Gene Bernier received his degree in Busi­

ness Administration at the University of Michigan

in 1957, he had top offers from several businesses.

Gene chose Michigan Bell Telephone Company

because: “This job was tougher to get. There was

no doubt in my mind that I was being carefully

evaluated for a responsible management job. Just

getting this job was a challenge.”

One of Gene’s early assignments was writing

a training manual for new employees which would

explain telephone accounting in simple everyday

terms—a tough job even for a seasoned writer.

But Gene did it. And his next step was a natural.

In November, 1958, he was transferred to the

Michigan Bell Economic Studies Section as editor

of a monthly publication, “Michigan Business

Trends." In this work, Gene analyzes and reports

business trends in Michigan as an aid to tele­

phone management people in decision making.

Gene proved his skill in reducing complex eco­

nomic problems to simple terms. And, sixteen

months after his transfer he was promoted to

Senior Statistician.

Today, Gene sums it up this way: "The idea

around here is to get the best a man has in him.

To me that spells opportunity.”

If you want a job where you will get real responsi­

bility and have a chance to move ahead as fast as

your ability will take you —then you’ll want to find,

ment Office has literature and additional information.

The Best in YearsPerhaps the great day for the basketball team is near

at hand. Despite the recent rash of defeats, the first sem­ester record is the best in many years. The five wins notch­ed so far this season already equal last year’s entire total. At the semester break last season the Vikes had won only three of twelve games. Two men were averaging in double figures, while now four are doing so. The team is averag­ing 69.1 points per game as opposed to 61.5 last year.

Some hope of the improvement is undoubtedly a result of an all-senior starting five. Four of these five have played together since they were sophomores. Loren Wolf wa* added at the semester break last year. They have had plenty of time (2Vi» years) to jell into a smooth unit.

It is our sincere hope that, as a farewell gesture to Lawrence basketball, our seniors will sparkle in their last eight games. They have everything to gain and nothing to lose. So many of the recent games have been very close. Only a few breaks our way and they would have been Lawrence victories. This semester should be our time to get these breaks.

Hats OffRecognition shotdd be given to the most loyal booster

off the Lawrence athletics, Mr. Barney Lamers, father of football and basketball regular Joe Lamers, has yet to miss a home football or basketball game. Last fall Football Coach Heselton named the Lamers’ "Lawrence Football Parents of the Year.” Mr. Lamers is always in the same seat in the center of the west stands for every basketball gatne. Hats off to you, Barney.

Vikes Lose Twice Away; Travel to Illinois Next

The Vikings opened the sec­ond round of conference play by losing to Cornell on the Rams’ floor by the score of 75-41.

Lawrence was obviously rusty after the two and one-half week layoff because of semester ex­ams. Only two men were able to score over four points. Jim Rasmussen led the Vikes with 16 points and Loren Wolf added ten.

Cornell held a 35-22 halftime lead and more than doubled the Vikes’ point output in the sec­ond half.

The loss dropped Lawrence into the conference basement wth a 3-7 record. They are now 5-8 overall for the season.

This weekend the team travels to Illinois to take on fourth place Coe and seventh place Grinnell. Earlier this season the Kohawks dropped Lawrence 63- 55 and the Vikes trimmed G rin­nell 75-70, both on the Alexander Gym floor.

Coe, one of the most surpris­ing teams in the conference, presently has a 6-5 conference record. They are led by Ken Moeller with a 13.1 point aver­age, 17th in the conference.

Grinnell has an experienced team, but as yet they have not lived up to advance notices. Bob Musser, with the third best average in the conference, 19.4 points, leads the Pioneer offen­sive. He is backed by 16th rank­ed J im Lowry.

make the taste of a cigarette mild and smooth. It works together with

a pure white outer filter—to balance the flavor elements in the smoke.

from the editors* desk . . .

At the beginning of the second semester it is customary for the new editor to state in general terms the policy to which the paper will adhere to during her tenure in office. So— here goes.

It will be the goal of the Lawrentian to serve Lawrence students not only as a mirror of campus life, although this will certainly continue to be an important part o! the paper’s function, but also as some sort of guide to where this campus stands in relation to its environment. By this I mean that a college must become aware of the world in which it functions, and it is part of a campus newspaper's job to assist in building this awareness with the student body.

Perhaps awareness is the key word here awareness of events which although they exist outside of the college itself should still be of vital interest to students. W e will attempt to implement this policy in two areas: feature stories concerned with those aspects of student affairs of more than local interest, and news stories about local and national events which relate to students.

We hope that such articles will aid the student in rea­lizing his place and the place of the college iti relation to the world around him. Such an awareness is a necessary part of education, and the Lawrentian will do its best to fulfill its obligations in this area. Any suggestions for articles of this nature are welcomed bv the editorial staff.

from the ed itor ia l board . . .

The Lawrentian Editorial Hoard includes the editorial staff and the SEC president, because Board membership runs from September to September, la>t year’s editors are still present at the weekly meetings.

Its purpose is t<> formulate the policy of the newspaper,. Members discuss issues of both local and national scope which are of interest to the campus. They then decide how the week’s editorial will present one selected issue in terms of Lawrentian policy. This subject may be only the intro­duction of an idea worthy of student thought presented in non-controversial terms.

In order to have a more truly representative opinion, this year’s Hoard will include a member not active on the newspaper. This position will be filled by one the Hoard feels has a definite interest in Lawrence affairs. Informa­tion concerning the submitting of petitions will be given in a later issue.

Science Faculty

At Argonne LabTen members of the Science

Hall faculty attended the 1961 Associated Colleges of the Mid­west Faculty Members’ Visit to Argonne National Laboratories January 27 and 28. Dr. W. P. Gilbert, Dr. J. Bruce Bracken- ridge, and Mr. Teymoor Geday- loo represented the physics de­partment. and Dr. M S. Gilbert. Dr. Sumner Richman, and Dr. Roger Trumbore represented the biology department. Those from the chemistry department were Dr. Stephen F. Darling, Dr. Robert Rosenberg, and Dr. Richard Zuehlke. Mr. Leonard Weis of the geology department also attended. A total of 85 fac­ulty members from the chemis­try. physics, and biology de­partments of the 10 ACM colleg­es attended this annual meet­ing.

The morning of Friday, Janu­ary 27, was spent in touring w- l* < t< d laboratory facilities at Argonne. Divisional descriptions of Argonne research projects continued the program in the afternoon. |>r. Darling presided over the chemistry section of this program.

That evening the students and faculty members involved in the Argonne Semester program gave their reports. These were con­cerned with the work done dur­ing the semester and the value of the experience as an integral part of a science education. Two Lawrence juniors. Anne Pelizzoni and David Bray, are now participating in this pro­gram. Saturday morning's main feature was a symposium. “The Use of Radioisotopes in Under­graduate Education and Re­search." Later in the morning, the group heard ¡« progress re­port on the ACM field stations.

Seven faculty fellowships were granted for research at the Que- tico-Superior Field Station in Minnesota. Biology, geology, and anthropology are the sub­jects involved. Dr. Sumner Richman will do research in limnology there this summer. Other sites are under considera­tion for more ACM field sta­tions.

Cole to Speak On Bible Archeology .

Professor Dan P. Cole of the religion department will speak as part of Fraternity Forum series this Sunday, February 12, at 2 p.m., in the Lecture Room of the Art Center. His subject will be “ Biblical Arch­aeology—Its Methods and Re­sults.”

Centered around the 1960 ex­cavations at Shechem, Pales­tine. in which Professor Cole participated, the presentation will be both oral and visual. Excavation campaigns at She­chem were held in the summers of 1956, 1957, and 1959, and they will be resumed in 1962. These particular excavations are of special interest to college stu­dents because the excavation itself has served as a training experience for graduate stu­dents and junior faculty mem­bers from schools in this coun­try. Students have had the op­portunity to work alongside trained archaeologists to learn modern field methods.

The excavation is the largest ever carried out in Jordanian Palestine. Work has been un­dertaken in several different areas, providing a demonstra­tion of a variety of modern archaelogical techniques of in­terest to the student and schol­ar. The site of these excava­tions was one of the most im­portant cities in northern Pal­estine during the Biblical per­iod, and current investigation here may add significantly to the general fund of knowledge of the Old Testament age.

MURPHY’S

To the Editor:I was one of the not-so-small

group of students who had two tests on the first day of exams. I am not writing to complain to those who set up the exam schedule because I realize that they have a very difficult job. However. I do believe that it would be very helpful if there were a longer reading and study period between when classes end and when exams start.

Some may say that if a stu­dent is well organized in his studying during the semester, he won’t need a long time to prepare for exams. Organized studying throughout the course does mean that less work has to be done before exams, but time is still needed, I believe, to review the materials studied, to find comparisons and con­trasts, and to gain an over-all view of the course.

It is said that students should not be concerned with grade points, but the fact remains that there is pressure— from parents, from the Greek groups, from graduate schools, and from the college administration. Many students need to meet a certain grade point either to avoid aca­demic probation or to maintain a scholarship. A good number of the instructors at this col­lege consider the final exam as the main factor in determining semester grades. This practice creates an even greater need for the student to be well pre­pared and well rested before go­ing into an exam.

I have talked with a good number of students about the need for a longer reading and study period, and many of them have agreed with me, especially those who have experienced the problem of trying to be prepar­ed for several tests in the first few days of exams. I believe that I speak for many students in saying that there is a real need for a longer period for study between the end of class­es and the beginning of exams.
