Teachers' Program Is Expanded With $50,000 Foundation Grant

A $25,000 grant from the Ford Foundation, announced yester­-day, has made it possible to ex­pand the experimental teacher education program b e i n g con­ducted jointly by Teachers Col­lege and the State Department of Education in three West Vir­ginia counties.

Dean D. Banks Wilburn of Teachers College said that last year's grant of $15,000 was given directly to the Mason County

Board of Education, where the program was first initiated.

This year the Ford Foundation allocation to Marshall University makes it possible to expand the program into Cabell and Kana­wha Counties. A total of 34 Teachers College students cur­rently are enrolled under the direction of 18 teachers in those counties. last year, in M a s o n County, there were 14 students and seven teachers in the first

rection of Dr. Eric Core, as­sociate professor of education. The increased grant makes it possible to employ Hillard Hoff­man, assistant professor of edu­cation, who has completed all his work toward the Ph. D. ex­cept his thesis. Professor Hoff­man will help Dr. Core super­vise the program.

In addition, the grant will be used for travel expense, evalua­tion of the program, and bring­ing to the counties consultants on special teaching techniques and for an annual in-service workshop concerning supervis­ion of the program.

The program, as now set up, works this way:

Teachers College students, in their junior year, are assigned to schools in one of the three counties for the first semester of each year and receive a stip­end of $1,000. They work under the direction of a "lead" teacher. In the second semester, the ju­niors return for classroom work on campus.

During their senior year stu­dent teachers work in o~e of the three counties during the first semester with a stipend of $1,100. The second semester is spent on campus.

Students enrolled in this pro­gram require 41h years to grad­uate, instead of the usual four years.

Fumes Cause Evacuation Of Hodges Hall

This was about par with last year's number of students voting in the freshman election when about 500 went to the polls.

There were about 25 candi­dates vying for Student Govern­ment offices.

A controversy developed Wed­nesday concerning o n e of the election campaign signs.

One of the explicit regulations for the campaign was that no' candidate was to have more than eight posters or signs on campus announcing his or her candidacy. Also, no sign or poster was sup­posed to be larger than five feet by 10 feet.

However, one candidate, a pre­sidential aspirant, Hobby Spauld­ing of Huntington, had two 10 foot-long signs connected to­gether directly in front of the Student Union. There were some people who questioned the legal­ity of this, saying that this was actually only one sign 20 feet in length.

Therefore, the controversy. Spaulding, himself, believed

his sign to be legal, and so did Student Body President Kenny Gainer, Charleston senior, and Dot Wheeler, Huntington senior, and Election Commission coord­inator.

Sign Believed Legal

Miss Wheeler S8'd that she and President Gainer had discussed the situation, and that they had decided that if Spaulding "wan­ted to place two signs next to one another it was his business."

One sign simply spelled out "SPAULDING," and the accom­panying poster had "FOR PRES­IDENT" lettered on it.

As for those who thought the (Continued on Page 6)

The approximately 175 resi­dents of Hodges Hall, men's dor­mitory, were orderly evacuated from the building around 9:00 p.m. Wednesday night as a re­sult of a carbon monoxide leak in the dorm's boiler room.

According · to C. S . . Czkelly, superintendent of buildings and grounds, the gaseous fumes began escaping into the boiler room be­cause the d a m p e r was shut, therefore c l o s i n g the exhaust stack.

The e s c a p e of the carbon monoxide fumes, which is a sil­ent killer, had completely filled the boiler room of the dorm, and had b e g u n to creep into the dorm's first floor.

Czkelly said that the premises had been checked by buildings and grounds personnel at both 4 p.m. and at 6 p.m., and that nothing unusual was noticed.

When the strong fumes were noted, both the Department of Buildings and Grounds, plus tlie Huntington F ire Department were called.

Mrs. Beatrice Terry, dormitory hostess, said that when she opened the boiler room door af­ter having been notified of the fumes, that her eyes "were al­most put out" as the gas rushed in her face.

Carbon monoxide is a deadly gas that results from combustion of certain materials, which us­ually escape through an exhaust stack to p r e v e n t dangerous fumes.

Stanley's Sage Steamer AND Sayings

By KAY SAGE & SAM STANLEY School spirit is definitely better. One reason has been the

success of the football team the past two weekends. Another reason is that the new freshmen seem to have an abundant amount of pep left over from high school days.

But we've had exuberant freshman classes and early suc­cesses on the football field before and the spirit was still lacking.

The difference this year seems to be a new-found pride in Marshall from the students and a whole lot of hard work. Work from groups such as the Robe, and the downtown "Rally Around Marshall" plus some imaginative stunts from fraternities and sororities. This has brought forth a tremendous support, not for just the football team, but for Marshall itself, of which the football team is just a part.

The ball got rolling at the Marshall Leadership School at Cedar Lakes near Ripley early in September. "We've got to have pride if we're to succeed" wasn't exactly the theme of the camp, but it was the main idea pounded in!o the heads of the nearly 100 campus leaders who attended.

RAM picked up the ball the next week and then the Robe staged its snake dance and pep rally and now the school spirit and pride is bubbling over.

Will the situation continue to improve? Definitely so if the football team continues to succeed. If the football team returns to the losing rut, then the work of the Robe, RAM and Greek organizations will be that much harder.

Let's hope that RAM gets the downtown support, win or lose. Let's hope the Robe continues its work, win or lose. And let's hope that, after rush is over, the fraternities and sorori­ties continue their stunts, win or lose.

In other words, let's keep this pride of Marshall and we are bound to succeed.

We've praised the Robe earlier, and now it's time to com­plain a little. It was a good idea to give $25 to the organiza­tion with the biggest percentage of members at the football game last Saturday. And no one complained when Tau Kappa Epsilon was the winner, because everyone was assured that the Tekes did have the biggest percentage.

But somehow along the way the word got out that the Robe didn't even begin to count those present (a most difficult task in the first place) but just threw all the names in a hat and drew one out-TKE.

It looks as though the Greenbackers will be discontinued this year because of lack of student body enthusiasm. However, plans may begin for an active freshman card section next year. The bulletin board outside of Old Main has taken on a new look. It is an informative map of the campus which was contri­buted by the Alpha Chi's. . . .

Why don't they have price tags on the food in the campus cafeterias. People who don't have meal tickets, but do eat there occasionally, should know the price of the food they are buying.

. . . The looks of the campus has improved during election time with fewer and better signs. . . .

A tip of the hat to Robert Dollgener, new head of the intramural program. Dollgener has revised the touch football rules, has scheduled games on two different fields and where some teams were able to play only three or four times in the past, they'll now be able to play twice that amount . . . The band looks better and sounds better this year and is beginning to hold the crowd in their seats at halftime. . . . Thomas S. O'Connell, associate professor of music, also rates a back-pat. . . . And Mr. O'Connell, we won't complain a bit if you delay intramural football games for a little bit of extra practice . . . Your band goes before the public and represents Marshall .... And the intramural program can miss a game or two, and should be glad to do it.

And to bring things to an end, wouldn't it be nice if all the clocks on campus gave the same time.

Courtesy Of American Men Amazes Her By BRENDA FAULKNER

Feature Writer A 20-year-old Copenhagen,

Denmark, coed is spending a year on the Marshall campus to learn the ways of American female attorneys.

Vibeke "Vibsen" Rosing has completed two years of pre­law study at the University of Copenhagen. She is in search of a more liberal academic and social education here to pre­pare her to major in law when she returns to Copenhagen, the city of her birth.

Throughout her three years at the Gymnasium (which is comparable to our high school and first two years of college) and her first year at the uni­versity, Vibsen worked in the reservations department of the Scandanavian Airline System to partially finance her desire to study abroad and to satisfy her wanderlust.

Her ability to converse in English, French, Swedish, Ger­man and Norwegian, as well as Danish, was her greatest asset for the job, Vibsen ex­plained. The "interesting, but sometimes difficult" duties in­clude p h o n i n g to London, Paris, Rome, Vienna and other major cities, during which times she had to speak various languages. ·

In November, 1962, this ra­diant red-haired lass applied to Marshall University for admis­sion and scholarship aid. She was immediately accepted for admission, but received no as­surance of a scholarship until May, 1963.

The home of her aunt and uncle, Mr. and Mrs. Borge Ros­ing of Huntington, was · gra­cioasty opened to her during her stay. Within a few days

VIBEKE ROSING Student From Denma:rk

P. Alexander, will a t t e n d a meeting of the program commit­tee of the S o u t h e r n College Placement Association in Atlan­ta, Ga. on Oct. 18.

Final plans for the 17th annual convention of the association are to be made. The convention will be on. Dec. 3-6 at Miami Fla.

after her arrival, she began her orientation into a strange world of an American univer­sity's registration lines, tradi­tions, s I a n g, and freshman guides.

One of the first objects of Vibsen's fascination was the unique willingness of students, especially the "ones with the green arm-bands", as she de­scribed the freshman guides, to go out of their way to be con­siderate and helpful.

Vibsen cited one example of this during Freshman Week when she came to the Hoote­nanny in the Student Union. After the festivities, she was to call her uncle to pick her up. In searching for phone funds, she found the cupboard bare -not only of a dime, but of her purse and telephone num­ber. She had left it in Mr. Rosing's car.

Upon seeing a student whom she recognized as a guide, Vib­sen reports that she approached him, explained her dilemma, and asked if he would please help. When they were unable

to locate her uncle, a very appreciative Danish freshman found herself being escorted home by two of Marshall's true gentlemen.

Her a m a z e m e n t at the American male's courtesy to women in general, not just to "the one he is trying to im­press," and the American fe­male's e x p e c t a n c e of such treatment, led Vebsen to ques­tion some of their traditions. She wonders why an escort s h o u I d "walk all the way around these big cars" just to open the door for his date, who, in Vibsen's words, "is just as capable of opening it."

W om e n's above-the-knee skirts and their c u s t o m of "carrying all their books in their arms" are two of the hardest things for Vibsen to accept, she said. Since Danish students carry a briefcase from their first day of school until their f i n a 1 graduation, she finds it rather clumsy to bal­ance a stack of books in her arms. She explained that the Danish briefcases are usually

of sturdy cloth construction at first, but progress in quality, as the student progresses aca­demically, to fine leather.

A 10-hour flight across the Atlantic brought Vibsen face to face with the pecularities of American culture. Any anxiety or doubt that she may have had concerning the next year of her life were cast to the winds on her · first night in

Huntington, she remarked. With enthusiasm still in her

voice, V i b s e n described the brilliance of the lighted city, as seen from her Richwood Road hilltop home, as "mak­ing me fall in love with Hunt­ington immediately." She felt assured that she w o u 1 d be warmly accepted, loved, and satisfied, as she definitely has been.

Dear Editor: Since coming to Marshall Uni­

versity I have heard many people say this is a friendl_y school and the student body 1s controlled primarily by Greek fraternities and sororities with token r epresentation granted to the complacent independent.

What's On WMUL? Here's Weekly Program Schedule

I classify myself in the latter group, not because I have an ill feeling for the Greeks nor that I have not considered joining one myself, but like man)_' indepe':d­ents I have not the time to smg to my mother nor the money to afford not to sing to her.

The Greeks have demonstra­ted their leadership ability by controlling student government but I look to see their friend­liness image which should make the student body as a whole feel a unity. My unity is not there.

Possible reasons being the un­written law of reserved table at the union and premium sections reserved at ball games.

Is it any wonder that student support to school athletic fun~­tions is considered poor when it appears the administration caters to the minority (Greeks) and not the majority (independents).

Thank you Greeks for our token representation.

·Frosh Pick President, 4 Senators

(Contnued from Page 1) two signs illegal, Sen. Danie Stewart of Barboursville and sophomore clas president, voiced the opinion that he was seriosuly considering taking the topic to the Student Court and presenting it as a case. He said that he be­lieved the signs unfair.

And Fred Reeder, Huntington junior, and a new justice ap­pointee to the court, agreed with Stewart that Spaulding's signs were "not fair."

Clever Sla-ns Noted Speaking of the signs, some of

them were quite clever, as is al­ways the case ih student elec­tions.

One candidate tied up an or­dinary porch swing to a tree and attached the sign, "Swing With Gates." Another candidate deco­rated one of her signs with a scarecrow, with the sign reading, "Crow For Diana."

All the signs-and the election as a whole - drew some inter­esting comments from freshmen, and all of those who were ques­tioned about their reactions were from Huntington.

Becky Turner said that she thought that many of the signs had "some really sharp ideas."

Sheila Wilson stated that she was "much impressed" with it all, and Butch Adkins said, "I don't know much about it. Ask somebody else.".-

Another freshman, Ginny Tho­mas, said that she believed the elections and everything which went along with it was "pretty good."

Provocative Answer But David Kiessing replied

with the most provocative an­swer when he said, "The election has been well-advertised, but one thing has surprised me. Since the sororities pledged last week their pledges who are running are being supported in the elec­tion by their respective social or­ganizations, but the boys don't have this same advantage, since the fraternities are just pledging this week."

The turnout of voters during the morning hours - and even at lunch time - was extremely light. For instance, at 10:15 a. m. only 75 freshmen had voted, and at 11 :20 a. m. just 120 students had pulled the levers of the vot­ing machines.

Big Green Faces Tough Buffalo Team

The Sports Corner

.._ _______ By JERRY REED ________ ...,

Sports Editor -..---- __ .... ..,. Well, the dazzling comeback that the Big Green staged for

the win over Toledo last Saturday is history, but the big factor in that game is the extra incentive that the team should now have.

That come-from-behind victory proved to the MU squad that it can produce when the chips are down and, taking a look at the remainder of the schedule this win could prove invaluable against the likes of Bowling Green, Ohio University and even against the Buffalo Bulls tomorrow.

Some of the fa!lS had left Fairfield Stadium and missed the dramatic pass from quarterback Bowie Lee Miller to his end Bob Pruett and the dramatic part about it was not only the third down and 15 yards to go situation, but also that Pruett tipped Miller off that he could beat the TU defender on that particular pass pattern. And he did!

The Buffalo Bulls have an outstanding team, as can be seen by their record so far this season by beating Villanova, Gettysburg, Ohio University and tying Holy Cross. The 7-0 win over OU was quite a surprise since the Bobcats were picked to win the MAC along with Bowling Green. But upsets do happen and let's hope this was an upset.

The meeting tomorrow will be only the second time the two schools have met. In the first contest MU came out on the short end, losing 37-12 in 1959. Unfortunately that season was the best on record for the Bulls when they compiled a 8-1-0 record. But this season MU could prove to be a stumbling block to the Bulls and put an end to their so far undefeated record.

MU Coach Charlie Snyder has had his scouts out looking at Buffalo and he has been impressed by what they have told him. They run and pass well. This second year in major college status for the Bulls could be a big one for them.

CROSS COUNTRY MEET TOMORROW Tomorrow at 10 a . m. a sport will be revived under the di­

rection of Coach Sonny Allen. After a four year lay-off the cross country team will get into action again and, according to Coach Allen, "the boys are really anxious to see what they can do."

Only three of the freshman players have experience in this sport and the varsity members are just out there to give it a try and show what they can do. It should prove interesting since the Morehead team appears to be in the same shape since it is in a rebuilding program and the runners are green to this sport also.

CAGE PRACTICE TO START Basketball Coach Ellis Johnson will gather his cagers together

Tuesday for the first practice session in preparation for the first game on the tentative date of Dec. 7 against Morris Harvey.

Johnson is anxious to get started and wants all students in­terested in trying out for the varsity squad to report to him at 3:30 p. m. Monday afternoon for a picture taking session and then the regular practice will start Tuesday at 3 p. m.

Coach Johnson also invites any spectators to the practice ses­sion. So, everyone will be able to see what is in store for the Big Green this year and what pla,vers to look for when the team takes the floor in the first game.

GYMNASTS T~ PERFORM The Danish Gymnastic Team is on the campu:1 today to per­

form for the student body and give demonstrations tomorrc-w for the physical education majors. Today at 3 p. m. the first per­formance will be given in the Men's Gym. Admission for this performance will be 50 cents. Tomorrow at 10 a. m. the gym­nasts will give instructions to the men and women physical edu­cation majors in addition to the performance at 7:30 p. m.

The admission for the Saturday night performance will be 50 cents for students and $1 for adults.

Bob Dollgener, intramural director, should be commended for getting this team to come to Marshall. This gymnastic team is composed of many of Denmark's top gymnasts and they are now on tour of the eastern United . States.

NOTES AND QUOTES ... Jim Cure, Big Green end, dropped to third place in the national

pass receiving rankings but don't lose track of him in these rank­ings because after displaying the pass attack against Toledo, which was in the top 10 in pass defense, the MU aerial offense could prove to be an outstanding factor in the remaining games. And Cure is the number one receiver. But after Toledo's upset the fans and scouts had better keep their eyes peeled for the other end of the line.

The intramural program is in full swing now and the aggres­sive play shown by each team is a credit to the Intramural De­partment since it has instilled the enthusiasm in the players by operating on a new system this year. Not saying that the other system was not desirable, but the flight system that has been put into operation this season gives the p laye rs more incentive now that they are playing in brackets wLh opponents of equal caliber.

The Big Green goes up against an undefeated, once - tied oppon­ent tomorrow afternoon at Buf­falo, but the MU squad will have upset on its mind after downing Toledo last week and gaining a tie for second place in the Mid­American Conference.

The State University of New York at Buffalo, member of the Eastern Collegiate Athletic Con­ference, has beaten Gettysburg, Ohio University and Villanova while being held to a tie by Holy Cross. The big win on the Bulls schedule of most interest to Big Green fans is the 7-0 vic­tory over the OU Bobcats since Ohio University is a co-favorite with Bowling Green to win the MAC.

"We've scouted Buffalo twice this season and we feel that they have a good team and we're look­ing for a real good game from them," MU Coach Charlie Sny­der said.

"They pass well and their run­ning attack is equally effective and they are just generally a strong team," Snyder added.

Danish Team Arrives Today For 2 Shows

By CAROL FOX Staff Reporter

Internationally known Danish Gymnastic Team consisting of 16 men and 16 women was due at Marshall University today for two performances. Performances will be held in the Men's Gym; the first demonstration at 3 p.m. today, and the second demon­stration at 8 p.m. Saturday.

The performances, each a min­imum of two hours, will demon-• strate the following activities: free exercises; ball drill; long horse; tumbling; and Native Folk Dancing.

Members of the Danish Gym­nastic Team are college students selected from the entire country of Denmark every three years. Prior to their selection the mem­bers have had four years of gym­nastic training. Members never tour the United States more than once, as a new team is selected every three years.

Tickets were sold yesterday and today in the Student Union by members of the Physical Edu­cation Major's Club. Phys. Ed majors have also covered dormi­tories, fraternity and sorority houses, also college approved homes. Admission is 50 cents for all students and $1 for adults.

"We are not planning any new tactics against Buffalo but I feel we'll pass a lot if the situation calls for it."

The Bulls are led by quarter­back John Stofa, a 6-3, 202-pound senior, who has a personal offense record of 1,883 yards in two seasons. Buffalo Coach Rich­ard Offenhamer describes him as "cool, calm, and calculating with just a touch of the gamb­ler."

Two other top rated players on the Buffalo squad are tackle Ger­ald Philbin and end Larry Gerg­ley. Philbin is rated as the Bulls greates t tackle ever and eastern coaches have said he is the fin­est tackle in the ECAC. Gerg­ley, a 6-1, 220-pounder, is known to be dependable in the clutch and is also rated as one of the top ends in the ECAC.

The Big Green has met the Buffalo Bulls only once before, losing 37-12 back in 1959 when the Bulls went on to a success­ful 8-1-0 record.

Coach S n y d e r plans no

Pruett Leaped, ndTeamWon

"I guess I was just there 'first­cst' with the 'mostest' ". These were the sentiments of MU end Bob Pruett after his 53-yard pass-catching effort during the MU-Toledo victory last Satur­day night. Commenting on the pass that he caught from signal - caller Howie Lee Miller, Pruett went on to explain, "Be (Toledo de­fender Don Baker) was there in front of me. I jumped and he jumped, but I caught the ball. I got pretty excited, I guess, and I ran and the next thing I knew, I was over."

Little Green To Open Season Against Bobkittens Tomorrow

changes in the line-up so this means Howard Miller will be the signal caller and joining him in the backfield will be halfbacks Jack Mahone and Zeke Myers, along with fullback Al Rinehart. At the ends will be Bob Pruett and Jim Cure. At the tackle po­sitions will be Everett Vance and Mike Hicks and, holding down the guard positions, will be Bill Winters and Richard Turner.

The Bulls have 19 returning lettermen and nine of these are in the backfield, while on the line they are at least four deep and a letterman is at every start­ing spot on the line.

MU end Jim Cure dropped from the top spot in the pass re­ceiving statistics across the na­tion. Cure is now ranked third behind John Simmons · of Tulsa and Texas Western's Jim Evans. Cure is leading the MAC, how­ever, with 14 receptions for 149 yards.

Quarterback Miller is a solid second in the MAC passing de­partment w i t h 23 completions out of 50 attempts for 305 yards.

Cross Country Thine/ads Face Foe Tomorrow

The newly or g a n i z e d cross ountry team will meet its first est tomorrow at 10 a .m. at Rit­er Park against the Morehead

o ,l den Eagles cross country earn.

MU Coach Sonny Allen has 17 unners ·under his direction and he boys are "anxious to get tarted." Only three of the team embers have experience in cross

ountry running .but the others 'have 1been w or k i n g hard and etting into shape." " I'm interested to see how we

come out t om o r row becau·se orehead is in a rebuilding pro-

ram and we feel -we are equal to them in this sport," Coach

llfm said. "Outher Dunning, Gary Prater,

and Ellis Wiley are our top run­ers since they've had quite a bit

of experience from high schoo: ross country meets," Allen said.

"We haven't had cross country track here for four years so it'i hard to say what we have to look. forward to, but we're going to give it a good try," Allen c;:om• mented. ·

The starting line for the meet wm be at 12th St. in Ritter Park near tht> tennis courts and will u1ish up at the far end of the
