Friday, September 11, 1964 The Western Carolinian Page 3 Limelight By Thad C. Roberts Fall quarter! and the masses return to the Valley of the Lilies. Once again the time has come for wall-sitting a- round the student union after dinner, for fighting our way through the mobs which congregate in the lobby of Stillwell Building between classes, and for screaming for the cards at registration that admit us to the classes of our favorite professors. As usual, at the beginning of fall quarter Western Carolina is invaded by a band of new faces, each supporting a purple and gold beanie which symbolizes the almost unmentionable label — Freshman! The one thing that impressed me the most when I entered this institution as a freshman was the fact that the upperclassmen were very helpful in getting me to classes on time, pointing me the way to the cafeteria at dinnertime when I was first headed in the general direction of Reid gymnasium, and showing me to the laundry after I had first ended up somewhere In the steam plant. As trite as the term "friendly, friendly" Western Carolina College may sound to an upperelass- man, it means a lot to a scared freshman arriving on campus for th* first time. Whether we like to admit it or not, these freshmen are human beings, and they are our fellow-students. Western Carolina has the state-wide reputation of being a congenial college, and it is a reputation that would do us well to each year the enrollment becomes larger, but in all the growth and progress let us not forget that we, as upperclassmen, have an obligation to meet. There may be a few more freshmen to look after this year than there were the year that we entered as freshmen, but the fact remains that they are as lost as we were. Let's show them the same courtesy that was extended to us when we arrived on this campus our first quarter. And a note to the freshmen: If you don't know where you are or where you're supposed to be going, ask someone. If you ask another freshman, chances are he doesn't know where he's going either. Then you can both ask an upper- classman who will be glad to help you. Remember most of all, the campus is glad to have you here and it won't be long before we hope you'll become an active part of Western Carolina College! Some 94.2 million Americans in 1964 will travel by automobile approximately 130 billion miles on vacation and pleasure trips. The distance is roughly equivalent to 700 round trips to the sun, National Geographic says. The US Government has participated directly or indirectly in financing the building, modernizing or expanding of 179 foreign steel plants since the end of World War II. This cost Films This Week Woodward Stars In Hoey Tonight The Stripper, tnougn unsuitably titled, will be shown tonight in Hoey Auditorium. The film is based on William Inge's play A Loss of Roses. Depicting two people searching for themselves, the performances of Joanne Woodard and Richard Beymer are far superior to the plot. The movie is well worth the 25c admission price, especially for movie-goers interested in character portrayals. Show time is 8:00 p.m. The Tuesday evening movie in Hoey is a religious epic starring Anthony Quinn as Barabbas. The film is in color and cinemascope. Show time is 8:00 pm. and admission is 25c. On Thursday (September 17th) the Gallery at Hunter Library will offer HELEN OF TROY. The plot is limply based on Homor's classic, THE ILIAD, and stars Jacques Sernas as Paris, the young Trojan prince who steals the beautiful Helen from her native Greece and takes her home to Troy, thus causing the ten year siege on that city that ended with the complete destruction of Troy. Also in the cast are Sir Cedric Hardewick and Brid- gitte Bardot. Admission is free. Show times are 8 & 10 a.m. and 1, 3, 7 & 9 p.m. Helen of Troy, better known as "the face that launched a thousand ships," is being shown as a special request of the Department of English. Student Government From The President's Desk By Bill Melton maintain. True, Western Car- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^_ „i»*.„ ,•> „ _ ' :„. „„n„„„ „„/i Uncle Sam about $2 billion, olma is a growing college and At Random By Joan Burnett Exactly what are you doing here? Did you ever, somewhere in the maze of application blanks, College Board Examination, and typhoid shots which comprise the usual pre-coming-to Cullowhee ritual, stop to think exactly how you happened to choose Cullowhee out of a thousand other colleges, or, for that matter, how you happened to choose college? If you have thought about it, what were your reasons? If you haven't thought about it, you probably never will, so don't read any more of this. How many times during the ordeal of orientation and registration will you feel like tearing your trial schedule (the fourth one you've formulated) into a million pieces and simply forgetting the whole thing? If you're normal, approximately ever five minutes is the all- campus average. Agreed, the first week is chaotic. It was for all of us. You will, however, live through it. The self- assured upperclassmen you see on campus have managed to come out of it alive, and even though you may be thoroughly confused and ready to go home now, next year at this time will be a different story. You will be the upperclassmen that people (tresh- men-type people) gaze at in awe. Later, when your life is orderly and methodical, a little excitement and newness will be extremely welcome. Now that you are here, what do you plan to do for the next four years? If you're planning on playing, go home. AND GO HOME NOW! Contrary to popular opinion, college is not National Scene . . . —Continued from page 2 of pride, and say, "We reared the new generation." It is you and I who must act. Everyone of us is responsible. As W. T. Auden wrote, "We must love one another or die." To the upperclasvimen, welcome back to Western Carolina. May this year be your biggest and most successful since you entered this institution of higher learning. To the freshmen, we welcome you on our campus. Now it is yours too, and may all the college has to offer be in your satchel of knowledge when you depart. At this early stage in the game you will face many trying times and have many difficult problems to face; decisions to make. I urge you not to become discouraged in the ordeal, but to hold your head high and seek better days. Everyone here In the valley is at one time or another confronted with problems and decisions. To solve them, or to at least help solve them, just look over your shoulder. We are proud to say that this is a friendly college. If you need help or guidance then look over your shoulder and ask the man behind to help you. While at Western, you will meet friends that you will never forget as long as you live. To date they will be your best friends. People that can and will help you in your times of despair. The type of friend that a man can sit down with, talk over his problem about why Judy dated Tom Saturday night instead of you. The type of friend that can console you when Professor Jones says you're all washed up in History 151. You can find these people here at Western Carolina College. It may be the guy next door in room 227, or the young lady you sat down beside at the Tuesday night movie in Hoey. Wherever you are, whenever you're there, get to know your neighbors. a centralized playground with intellectual overtones. Granted, it does have its social side, but it is a SIDE only and not a complete way of life. Weekends are fun, but they only last for two days, not seven. If you're planning on studying (that is the main reason you're here, isn't it), by all means begin studying regularly now and carry through with it for the next year. The sporadic student doesn't learn much. Perhaps the biggest curse of the college campus is procastination. Putting off an assignment leads to all-night study sessions and black-rimmed eyes, not to an education. Then, too, there are things other than books. There are extracurricular activ i t i e s. They are for you, but your college career is not all clubs. Find an organization and join it—one connected with your major, or one you're just plain interested in. College, then, is many things. It is a cup of tap-water coffee grabbed in the mad rush to make an eight o'clock class. It is seemingly endless nights hunched over a table in the library, a chewed up pencil, a leaky pen. It is the clacking of a typewriter, pop quizzes, fraternity parties, and bridge games. To you, now, college is a beanie, a name tag, and mass confusion. To you, later, it will be something much more meaningful. It will be a part of you, not apart from you. You're very obviously here. What you do now that your're here is your own business, but do something. -Miss America 1965- Who Will She Be? ^ This will be the scene on Saturday evening, September 12th, when Donna Axum, Miss America of 1964, will crown Mis3 America 1965. Competition for state winners is taking place now, ^nd come the second O week in September, finalists from all fifty states will head for the National Pageant held in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Girls competing for the Miss America title must be talented as well as beautiful—imaginative as well as poised. For one year, Miss America is one of the busiest girls in the U.S.— making public appearances throughout the country, speaking before civic and business organizations . . . schools and community groups. In addition to other awards, she receives an Educational Scholarship from Pepsi-Cola Company. In 1958, it was decided to provide annual college scholarships — not only to the national finalists, but to state and local winners as well. Last year the total value of Pepsi Scholarship Awards was more than $200,0001 Here are some facts you may not know about the Pageant. The second Miss America was also the third! In fact, according to the original rules, if Martha Catherine Campbell, of Columbus, Ohio, had won again in 1924, she could have retired the crown! Twenty-three states in the Union have produced Miss Americas, Pennsylvania leading with five. A number of the winners have gone on to national prominence. Who will be this year's reigning queen? Who knows? Miss America 1965 may be from our home state. as Friendship with your fellow students can and will be a great asset to your college career. I promise you that it will be an education within itself. The type of education that will let you sell that Data Processing equipment that you learned how to operate while majoring in Business Administration. Not only will you be faced with problems and decisions while you're here, but you're going to have to put up with many good dances to attend, many good parties on and off campus. Social events galore in store for you this year. It is one of the goals of this years student government to see that these opportunities are afforded to you. When these events are available, I strongly urge you to attend. Be a participant in as many college sponsored functions as possible. This statment is directed to upperclassmen well as freshmen. ^^^^_ Under no circumstances am I indicating that you should neglect your academic work. This is your first and foremost purpose for attending college. You know this, I don't have to tell you, but at times some of us seem to slide a little and neglect our school work. In order to best enjoy our areas of social enlightment at Western, stay with the books so that you can stay in school. Be a well-rounded young man or young lady. Be a participant—but be a good participant; both in the classroom and on the campus. Remember, from what you put into these next four years, will come the rewards of your lifetime. I hope to occupy this space from time to time this year to report to the student body on the progress of our student government and its student leaders. The student leaders of your campus have just completed thirtieth pre-session conference. I commend them all for a job well done. The challenge was presented and they accepted. Many sacrificed summer jobs, additional money, etc., to come and serve you. The programs and ideas that were brought forth (which are listed in this paper) are good concrete ideas of which we hope to accomplish many. In some instances we will only get a good hold to pave the road for the people who come after we are gone. I wish to thank all of the students who gave their valuable time and effort to the conference. These people will continue to work closely with our student government this year. I ask all the students of our college to do the same. The goals we are trying to reach are for you and if you will, you can help us. Have personal initiative, and as I said earlier be a participant in as many college functions as possible. Let's make it a good year at Western Carolina College. No species of bat found in the United States bites humans, except in self defense, National Geographic says. Most have teeth too small to puncture the skin. In Michigan, a computer- controlled 80-inch hot strip mill operates at speeds up to 3,000 feet per minute. It converts a 54,000-pound slab into coiled sheet metal in about one and one-half minutes.
