be open at prime hours seven days a week in the beginning and will be changed only as student demand calls for this.

Dean Harwell commented on the new suggestion which was announced in assembly Wednes- day. The idea has been brought up to perhaps begin classes a couple of weeks early Fall Quar- ter so that classes would end by Thanksgiving holidays. This would give the school more than a month for vacation during Christmas. Some of the advantag- es would include a longer vaca- tion period for those who plan to work during the holidays, the eli- minating of traveling so much during a two week .period, and

would save the school some mo- ney. This idea could develop into something very helpful and should be considered very care- fully.

The final exam schedule will be out in a few days. This alone compiles a vast quantity of work in that the schedule is made up in a group multiple if departments consent and there is no conflict, that the heaviest day of exams should fall on the first day and the lightest on the last day, the last period exam does not hit the same department each quarter, and that no stu- dent has three exams in one day.

Peace Corps to Train 1,464 Volunteers During Spring of 1969

During the spring of 1969 the Peace Corps will train 1,465 Volunteers for service in 25 of the 59 nations where Volunteers are at work. This represents an increase of 300 more openings than were available during the same training cycle in 1968.

These Volunteers are needed to work in 55 programs in such varied job areas as agriculture, education, health, cooperatives, fisheries and community devel- opment. In many cases a portion of the training will take place in the country where the Volun- teers are to serve.

Here are examples of the programs:

... In Venezuela single women Volunteers with back- grounds in home economics, so- cial work or liberal arts are needed to work with the Division of Rural Housing to help bring a- bout better sanitation in new communities throughout Brazil. They will work with individual families and community leaders to promote better health through community, home site and house improvements projects.

... In India, some highly skilled volunteers are needed for a special education program to help supply more and better trained teachers. These Volun- teers will teach TESL (teaching English as a second language) methods and supervise practice teaching in basic training schools and teacher-training colleges throughout Madras state.

gram should have a master's de- gree, or else have experience in TEFL (teaching English as a for- eign language). Or they should have a bachelor's degree in edu- cation with some background in linguistics or TEFL.

... In the South Pacific, the Government of Fiji wants Peace Corps Volunteers to help step up the country's food pro- duction and help develop some natural economic resources.

Volunteers with farm or ranch backgrounds or with de- grees in agriculture or liberal arts will work in animal husband- ry (beef, cattle, pigs and dairy farming) or in rice growing pro- jects.

Volunteer foresters are also needed to operate forest stations and train the badly needed per- sonnel to tap Fiji's great forest potential.

Volunteers with geology de- grees will help carry out a much- needed systematic geological mapping of Fiji's entire 7,040 square miles. They will also train local personnel for the geo- logical survey department.

. . . Guinea has requested Volunteer mechanics to help train the 200-300 Guinean me- chanics needed within the next 4-5 years. Volunteers will work in the capital Conakry for go- vernment ministries, doing on- the-job training in equipment re- pair. Men are needed with back- grounds in general mechanics, diesel, heavy equipment, ma- chine, automotive-electrical, in- dustrial-electrical, diesel fuel systems and rewiring motors and generators.

These programs, and many more, begin training January — May 1969. To find out more about how your skill or background can be used in the Peace Corps, con- tact your Peace Corps liaison on campus or write to: Peace Corps Information Center, Room 715, Washington, D. C. 20525

FACULTY MEETING

Page 3, LAGRANGE COLLEGE. LaGrange. Georgia March 7, 1969

The final examination schedule will be published soon.

Members of the "Faculty Commi- ttees" will be elected at the March Meeting of the Faculty.

The following situation needs the attention of a number of indivi- duals and organizations at La- Grange College. Are we about to become guilty of calling on friends of the college too often by too many individuals or groups? Such a merchant may be called upon by publications, organiza- tions, special projects of indi- vidual faculty members, alumni and soon the Margin of Distinc- tion Program. Some immediate special planning is needed.

The regular LaGrange College Faculty Meeting was held on Tuesday, February 25, 1969 at 10:00 A.M. in the small dining room.

Mr. Richard T. Walters, Director of . Development, will report to the faculty on the status of The Margin of Distinction Program.

Dr. George T. Anderson, Chair- man of the sub-committee on test- ing of the Academic Standards Committee, will report on certain aspects of the Graduate Record Examinations. He will make a comparison of the Graduate Re- cord Examination Advanced Tests by LaGrange College seniors.

Reports will be made on behalf of the Student Affairs Committee on the following subjects: (a) Progress which has been made by fraternities and sororities in "going national."

Dr. Murial B. Williams, Chairman of the sub-committee on "Good of the Order" will report on sug- gestions and/or recommendations of the committee.

There are no new developments on the status of the Faculty Hand- book. It is in the hands of the Faculty Handbook Committee.

Dr. Zachry Taylor, Jr. will report on the recent conference on "Ef- fective Academic Teams." This conference was held at the Uni- versity of Georgia on February 9-11, 1969 and was attended by members of the Academic Advi- sory Council. Various names ap- plied to Academic Deans are censored. An interesting new appelation for a Division Chair- man is a "Deanlet."

Mr. Philip Gerald Thacker has been notified that, although he was not selected as a Woodrow Wilson Designate (1,106 in U.S.), he was selected as one receiv- ing Honorable Mention (1,111 in U.S.).

Deficiency Reports have been turned in and both students and their parents or guardians have been notified. Faculty members have received a list of students receiving deficiencies. Our reac- tions to these deficiencies are important. Certainly we should agree that one of the hallmarks of a good faculty member at LaGrange College is for the fa- culty member to be especially interested in student receiving deficiencies from him as well as each of his advisees who re- ceived a deficiency. There is absolutely no substitute for a personal interest by a faculty member in a student.

Mrs. Juanita R. Overcash, Regis- trar, has recently attended a Meeting of the Georgia Associa- tion of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers. Mrs. Over- cash will report to us on some of the precautions which should be observed by Administration, Fa- culty, and Staff concerning stu- dent grades (deficiencies) and student records.

In a memorandum dated October 10, 1968, certain members of the faculty were made responsible for placing book orders. The book orders for the spring quarter should be completed by Friday, March 7, 1969. Let us be careful in submitting accurate orders and let us report immediately any problems that arise concerning book orders for the spring quar- ter.

Youth Fares NATIONAL STUDENT ASSOCIA- TION (NSA) TO FIGHT C.f B. RE- PORT ENDING YOUTH FARES; NSA ONLY GROUP REPRESENT- ING STUDENT AIRLINE USERS TO TAKE LEGAL ACTION

Washington, D. C. — The Unit- ed States National Student Asso- ciation (NSA) will fight the re- commendations of a Civil Aero- nautics Board (CAB) examiner calling for the abolition of youth fares as "unjustly discrimina- tory," and has retained legal counsel to prepare briefs and oral arguments for presentation before the CAB.

The announcement of NSA's ac- tion came from Services Division director Alan C. Handell, who noted that at present the Asso- ciation is the only group repre- senting student users of the air- line youth fare which will make arguments before the Federal board.

Abolition of youth fares is being sought by a number of bus com- panies. NSA will argue that in view of the educational, social, economic, and cultural benefits afforded by the youth fares and young adult fares, the fares should not be cancelled.

Written arguments will be pre- sented to the CAB by February 26. Oral arguments will be made at a later date. NSA is being re- presented by the Washington law firm of Koteen and Burt, who are experts in air fare matters.

Handell urged that students in- terested in retaining youth fares contact him at USNSA, 2115 S. Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20008.

NSA is a national confederation of nearly 400 student government associations. It is the oldest national grouping of American student governments, founded in 1947.

s 9 Of 10 Student Patriotic, But-

GREENWICH, Conn. — Despite the riots, draft card burning, and even flag tearing exhibited by some of our college students, the current college generation is as patriotic as the average American. Over nine out of ten students agree that they lo%|e their country, a report on partiotism and the college student by the College Poll reveals.

"Of course, we love our country," says a Columbia University sophomore. "If we take sides on issues with the college administration — that doesn't mean we don't love the U.S."

"I think the draft stinks," says a New York University sophomore. "I also think Vietnam is a mess and a disaster, but I'm no commie. Sure, I love this country — as long as I can say what I think."

"I DON'T AGREE with many things in this country — civil rights, for example," says a California Tech senior. "But, of course I love this country — I just want it to stay alive and keep strong like our forefathers did."

The study of the College Poll was conducted on 87 campuses. This report is part of a continuing study of

American college student opinion by the College Poll, a service of the Greenwich College Research Center in Greenwich, Conn.

Students were asked this question: "Many people feel that partiotism is dead among this generation. Do you yourself love your country — not right or wrong — but do you love your country?" Of the students answering, 88.9 per cent said Yes; 9.8 per cent said No, and 1.2 per cent aid not answer.

WOMEN TENDED to be slightly more patriotic than men, and whites slightly more patriotic than Negroes. Among the Negroes 84 per cent said Yes; 10 per cent said No, with 6 per cent not answering.

Students clearly differentiated between being patriotic and agreeing with "the way things are done." Most students have many gripes with the country. Among those most frequently mentioned are:

• the Vietnam conflict • civil rights inequality • dishonesty of older generation • lack of ability to "change things" • draft problems • phoney politicians Yet, even in these instances, previous College Poll

studies indicate that although students may not agree with how the projects are being run, they do not reveal basic dissatisfaction with the system itself.

STUDENTS WOULD exercise their privileges of citizenship more than their elders. Students stated that if they had the right to vote, 85 per cent would, in fact, vote — higher than the U.S. average. Students seem to reject political parties as such, however, and have indicated that nearly 50 per cent have not any preference to be Democratic or Republican.

But with it all, the College Poll reveals the college student today on the whole is a patriotic, God-fearing, law-abiding citizen. He obviously wants to display these attributes in a manner slightly different from the older generation. He wants change within the system, if possible. He is not always sure which changes he wants or which are best, but he is hardly, on the average, the revolt-minded anarchist the minority actions would have the public believe.

Scholarships for Study-Travel

A scholarship for a stu- dent to participate in LaGrange College's Biblical Study-Travel Seminar to Israel this summer has been established bythe Edel- son family of LaGrange.

Announced jointly by Mil- ton Edelson and Dr. Waights G. Henry, president of the college, the scholarship is to be awarded to some pre-ministerial student now enrolled at the college.

The traveling seminar in Biblical studies will go to the

Holy Land in June and July und- er the direction of the Rev. Dr. Charles F. McCook, head of the college's Department of Religion.

The seminar scholarship was established, Edelson said, because "Our family wanted to do something for LaGrange Col- lege and felt that this seminar will enrich the students' under- standing and appreciation of Israel and its people."

Dr. McCook said, "Mem- bers of the Department of Reli-

gion are grateful to the Edelson family for this scholarship which will not only enable a stu- dent to visit Israel, but it also constitutes a step which will help assure the success of the Department's Study-Travel Semi- nar Program."

A recent innovation in the LC curriculum, the seminar al- lows students from this and other institutions to earn up to 10 hours of credit. Dr. McCook said.

Students participating in the seminar will live, study and work in a kibbutz, or communal settlement, during their three weeks in Israel.

Applicants for the seminar scholarship should make appli- cation to the Department of Reli- gion at the college. Dr. McCook said. Upon recommendation of

the department's faculty, candi- dates for the award wi 11 meet with the donors and professors of the department for the selec- tion of the recipient.

Dr. McCook said the semi- nar is scheduled from June 8, when the participants arrive on the LC campus for an orientation session, until July 15, when the students will complete the semi- nar back on the campus.

The seminar participants are scheduled to live on the Yi- fat Kibbutz for three weeks and then tour Israel before returning to LaGrange.

Anyone desiring more in- formation about the scholarship and/or the study-travel seminar should contact the Department of Religion at LaGrange College, LaGrange, Ga., 30240, or by tele- phone. Area Code 404 882 -2911.

Just Grazing Well, it has warmed up a

little so let's open up the pas- ture gate and get moving. The L.C. Panthers wound u p their season against Columbus Col- lege on February 26, in Colum- bus with a loss. This loss gave the Panthers an eight and eigh- teen won-1 oss record for the se; ■ son. They wound up with a fiv. and nine record in Georgia Ir.• tercollegiate Conference Play. The squad's leading scorer was 6-3 senior Lamar Adams who nil at a rate of 16.2 points per game and averaged 8.9 rebounds. "Moose" was followed by senior guard Gabland Gudger with an average of 12.5 points per game. "Sparky" Whitener ended the season averaging 10.8 points per game and 6.9 rebounds, and Glend Traylor had a 10.2 point average along with the team leading rebound average of 9.4 per game.

The team as a whole ended the season averaging 67.8 points per game, hitting 45.3% of their field goals and 61.7% of their free throws against a 75.2 point average by their opponents. La- mar Admas scored the most points in any one game when he poured in 31 points against Georgia Southwestern hitting thirteen field goals and five free throws.

Turning now to intramural action. Kappa Sigma is currently leading in M.A.A. Basketball ac- tion sporting only one loss for the season. Pi Kappa Phi and Beta Rho are tied for second place in the tight race with two losses apiece. Kappa Sigma took the league lead with a nar- row victory over the Pi Kaps and still, anything could happen be- fore the championship is finally decided.

In W.A.A. Basketball, Alpha Kappa Theta and Kappa Phi Delta are tied for first place in league competition each team having lost one game to the other. The two squads will meet in a play- off tournament in order to deter- mine the 1969 champions.

17 STUDENT TEACH THIS QUARTER

Seventeen LaGrange Col- lege seniors who are aspiring for careers in teaching are cur- rently in the student-teaching phase of their preparation.

Under the direction of Dr. W. M. Shackelford, professor of education and chairman of the college's Education Division, the students will assume regular classroom responsibilities with certain supervision.

Dr. Shackelford said the stu- dent teachers are spending eight weeks in assigned accredited schools teaching under the close supervision of certified master teachers.

"The opportunity of working with experienced teachers is a highlight of the professional ed- ucation of our future teachers," Dr. Shackelford explained.

The LC seniors must com- plete requirements for a major in elementary or secondary teach- ing before entering the student teaching quarter. Their curricu-

range, Georgia March 7. 1969

lun also includes educational philosophy, psychology, and me- thods courses.

The Georgia State Board of Education grants professional teacher's certification to LC students who complete their de- gree requirements and student teaching quarter, and are recom- mended by the college's Depart- ment of Education.

Dr. Shackelford is also co- ordinator of the secondary edu- cation program while Dr. Jessie P. Gough, associate professor of education coordinates the pro- in elementary education.

These two coordinators act as critic teachers periodically visiting the student teachers in the classroom.

Of the 17 student teachers from "the hill" this quarter, se- ven are working in elementary schools while 10 are practicing in secondary school systems.

At Cannon Street Elementary School in LaGrange are Mrs. Brenda Reams Daniel of La- Grange, sixth grade, supervised by Mrs. Hazel Webb; Martha Ha- den of Atlanta, fourth grades, su- pervised by Mrs. Louise Hall; and Julia Towns of LaGrange, first grade, supervised by Mrs. J. D. Marchman.

Student teaching at Dunson Street Elementary School in La- Grange are Fannie Edge of Co- lumbus, first grade, supervised by Mrs. Marjorie P. King; and Mi- guel ita Reese of Jacksonville, Fla., first grade, supervised by Mrs. Mildred T. Hagler.

At LaGrange's Hollis Hand Elementary School are Mrs. Vir- ginia Whitehead Brown of Ho- gansville, third grade, supervised by Mrs. Vera Reeves: and Yvonne Shelhorse of Columbus, fourth grade, supervised by Miss Ber- nice Shirey.

Three LC students are teach- ing English at LaGrange High School and one is teaching ma- thematics. The English student teachers are Lynnda Blackwell of Atlanta, supervised by Mrs. John Love; Mrs. Christine Mc- Laughlin Smith of Teaneck, N.J., and LaGrange, supervised by Mr. John Mayberry; and Mrs. Barbara Ann Cook Stevens of Atlanta and LaGrange, supervis- ed by Mrs. Richard Walters. Lil- lian Davidson of Fort Valley is teaching mathematics under the supervision of Mr. Lanier Shelnutt.

Six Flags Interviews

The mammoth job of inter- viewing, screening, and hiring 1,500 hosts and hostesses that will stagf Six Flags Over Georgia during the 1969 operating season will begin on January 18.

The Personnel Office, as in the previous two seasons, will be looking for riverboat captains, train conductors, balloon girls, ride operators, and countless others for the 276-acre family entertainment center.

Six Flags Over Georgia opens for its third year of opera- tion on April 13, and will be open on Saturdays and Sundays unti I June 6. From June 6 through La- bor Day, Six Flags Over Georgia will be open daily from 10 a.m. until 10 p.m. After Labor Day, the family entertainment center will revert back to Saturday and Sunday operations.

Explaining what a host or hostess can expect to do 11 Six Flags, Mr. Jarre 11 stated, "There are a wide variety of jobs availa- ble and the potential host or host- ess might find himself puloting a riverboat up the Ogeechee River on Jean Ribaut's Adventure, ush- ering guests into the Krofft Pupper Show, keeping relations between the guests and animals in Pets- ville friendly, or countless other jobs."

Mr. Jarre 11 went on to say that the Six Flags Over Georgia operating policy will continue in the same manner as in the past two seasons enabling the park to give the hostess or host a flexi- ble working schedule, depending on availability. Hosts and host- esses regularly work an eight hour day, six days a week.

It was further pointed out by the Six Flags Personnel Director that students should not assume that all jobs are filled immediate- ly. Although a majority of the stu- dents remain for the entire operat- ing season, there is some turnover, and jobs are continuously opening up.

Angus G. Wynne, Jr. Presi- dent of Six Flags parent company, firmly believes in the value of the hosts and hostesses.

' 'No area of our undertak- ing is as vital as our host and hostess staff. "Mr. Wynne stated. "We truly consider the hosts and hostesses to be the backbone of our organization."

At the close of Six Flags operating season, twenty outstand- ing hosts and hostesses will re- ceive scholarships presented by Mr. Wynne.
