BSC TAKES CONTROL During the past few weeks repre
sentatives from the eleven state colleges have been criss-crossing the state in order to attend meetings dealing with drawing up a feasible plan for a mUlti-tabial approach for securing more funds forhighereducation in Massachusetts. At a meeting held at Boston State February 25 and attended by Tom Perry, Donna Daley and Gerry Kelley, discussion centered around a massive demonstration on Boston Common to demand that the Legislature act. It was then pointed out that before any A~~Qnstratj,o:n_ s~~uJ,(L~yenEe planned some sort of concrete proposal ... should be made which could serve as a focal point for discussion. It was then suggested that the Commonwealth float a 200 million dollar bond issue which would provide the recessive capital to rebuild the College septarn in a very short time. On February 28 another meeting was held at Worcester State College. At this meeting SaC.A. president Tom Perry demolished the plans for a march and called for a responsible approach to the entire matter. After heated discussion, a plan for personal contact between colleges and local legislators was theoretically decided upon. In order to better coordinate this subtle approach a meeting was called for March 9 at the Bridgewater Campus. Three Colleges saw fit to send delegates to this meeting and, because of the apparent general lack of interest, no discussion was attempted.
However, on March 15, at the State College Convention the whole problem reached a critical point. At a meeting of the SGA State College preSidents, Bridgewater was subjec:ted to much verbal abuse and a ·heated discussion followed on the merits of a massive demonstration. Gerry Kelley. Bridgewater's representative, casually reminded those present that no program for alleviating the situation had as yet been devised which could be submitted to the General Court for study, and to demonstrate without such a program would be a little foolhardy. After continued debate the matter finally was referred to a more workable sub committee consisting of Dave Hawkins from Mass. College of Art, John BarnettfromNorthAdams and Gerry Kelley of Bridgewater who

was selected chairman. This Committee quickly drew up a
statement of purpose which was distributed at the Convention, this statement stressed; 1. The need for much research in the area so that statistics and possible plans are as valid and practical as possible. 2. The need for local communication and personal dialogue between students, administrators and local legislators so thattheywUl be aware of the local problems and their complications. 3. The need for responsible action
--whlch -does -not inClude any massive action at this time." 4. A request for a progress report from all the colleges. It is hoped that this plan of action, which is subtle but sincere, will provide the needed impetus to get the General Court thinking favorably about the state colleges. Conditions at several of our sister state colleges are quite poor and the ever-increasing number of qualified applicants who are rejected provide a sense of urgency. A united, concentrated effort done in the mostprofessional mannerpossible appears now to be the only solution to the problem.
PHI ALPHA THETA HOLDS
INSTALLATION On Friday, March 15, the Bridge
water Chapter of Phi. Alpha Theta, a national historical honor society, was formed. In the reception room of Tillinghast Hall,13 students and 10 professors were installed as members in the Society during a prescribed induction ritual.
Professor William Metz and Professor Charles Daniels, both of the University of Rhode Island, acted as the installation officers from an outside chapter, whose presence is required for the inauguration of a new chapter of the SOCiety.
The acquisition of a charter to Phi Alpha Theta is the result of the efforts put forth by members of the History department and Herodotus Club for the past few years. Pro-

by Mark Allan Leach This "Review" is exceptional in
many ways. Until now this critic had never reviewed anamatetfrperformance for CAMPUS COMMENT. Neither had he reviewed a musical, because he bears a strong dislike for musicals in general; musicals most often consist of a plethora of faceless characters mouthingillogical, sentimental lines and a story line designed not for dramatic and artistic expression, but to hold the story together, more or less tenuously, in between songs. The greatest exception, however, is that this critic had to review the final dress rehearsal and no matter how well prepared the musical mightbe, stage actors simply do not give their best performance to an empty house. Yet despite all this adversity "Funny Girl" proves to be a fast paced, humorous, spicy show.
The Bridgewater Drama Department is the first amateur organization ever to produce "Funny Girl" and it has been a successful first. As a musical it is artistically successful; although it is not art. To succeed, a musical must be entertaining; the music and choreography have to be exciting, unique and pro!essional. Composer Jule styne and lyricist Bob Merril have put together an excellent blend of raucous and sentimental songs. . What the cast lacks in tonal quality they more than compensate for in spirit and .verve. The choreography is always more than adequate, succeeding most in numbers like the first curtain dance when it eaptures"theamateur"theatrical, twenty-three Skidoo flavor of the off-off Broadway Ziegfeld era. The choreography is too meager in the patriotic production number and falls into poor stereotype at times; particularly the number with the typically boring parasol tWirling. Yet, the choreography, even in these instances, is, at least, flashy.
An interesting twist is the use of a small combo r ather than an orchestra. The combo is effective between scenes and in the incidental music, provoking an intimacy and informality. During the musical numbers the combo is hardly noticed. This works,. of course, only when the Singing is exceptionally good.
The problem of inept dialogue does unfortunately appear in "Funny Girl. " Working the dialogue into a song is not an easy task, but a separate scene in which a character's only purpose for being on stage is to say, "Do you remember what you used to say ••• " etc. and then bang
THE BLACK MESSIAH
THE BLACK MESSIAH by Rev. Richard D. Waters, is a new and exciting experiment in the use of drama as a vehicle for racial commentary. With great artistr.y, the cast of professional actors bring three hundred years of racial conflict into perspective, to be evaluated, experienced, and hopefully, to be changed for the better.
THE BLACK MESSIAH, is based upon a documentary study of the history of the Negro in this country,

into the umpteenth refrain of the opening song is, let us say, less than deSirable.
·Where the dialogue most hurts "Funny Girl", however, is in the development of the character Nick. Nick, the husband of Fanny. the heroine, is central to the story, but because of author Isabel Lennart's inadequacy, he is hardly credible. Perhaps closer direction couldhave remedied the problem, but as it is Bruce Taylor, as Nick, does little more than smile a lot for the first act. The second act, thanks to a miraculous effort by Mr. Taylor, shows a more believable and complex Nick.
This leads uS to the particular performances by our Bridgewater students. Of the supporting cast particular mention should go to Linda Howell as the ,rewish, too friendly friend of the Brice family, Mrs. Strakosh and to Cheryl Faris as Fanny Brice's mother. Jewish mothers have always been an l1'1'esistable subject of American literature, and Cheryl does justice to the image, particularly in her "Find Yourself a Man" number. Oy, everyone should have a motha like Fanny's got a motha!
James Tavares as Fanny's one time dance instructor and life long not so secret admirer, Eddie Ryan, also gives a humorous and profes-sional performance. I
Once again, John Winslow, as the inimitable Mr. Flo Ziegfield, gives a strong, near-impeccable shOwing. Mr. Winslow gives the most even pe-rfortnance· itl . t1i"e'"'s1't6,v;ww~'-AS' -T10=- ~- .. -Zigfield he exudes confidence, profeSSionalism, and charm.
But the real show is Fanny Brice. the "Funny Girl" with an indestructable will to be a star a Kathy Camara is on the stage for almost the entire performance, and she never lets down for a moment. In the short space of two hours we see over twenty years of Fanny. Fanny the clumsy, boyish, fiery young girl who ain't much of a looka, Fanny the little but loud comic, the big star, and Fanny the reflective, middle aged woman who makes her decision that "nobody's gonna rain on my parade!" Kathy Camara is, not only of necessity, but because of the high calibre of her performance, the whole show. The only fault one can find with Miss Camara's delive:ryis that she sometimes forgets Fanny's funnygirlness.
Special mention must go to Mr. George Terhune, technical director and scenic designer. His elaborate, well integrated sets capture the sparkle and flamboyance of I 'Funny Girl. "
A p:roductio.n the stature of "Funny Girl" is a monumental task for the more than one-hundred people involved. Mr. Barnett, the producer and director of "Funny Girl," has done a formidable job of amaSSing the amateur talent of Bridgewater into an evening of professional entertainment.

LBJ is pushing a War on Poverty. the Pentagon is fighting a War in Vietnam, and Governor Volpe is engaged in a War on Crime •. Since war seems to be the 'in' thing these days, I've decided to declare a War

is. It is a six letter noun that begins with A and ends with Y. It can also be used as an adjective by dropping the final Y and adding ETIC. This word is often used to describe a strange disease that supposedly plagues many Bridgewater students.
I have devised a plan to rid BSC's campus completely of this dreaded disease. My first plan of action is directed solely at all student government officers. Whenever a social or cultural function is a flop. the officials running it very often declare - "The students are ." This, however, is no excuse for poor management. When a function is unsuccessful, maybe it is the class representatives that are , not the students. So don't immediately blame the students, but rather try to do better the next time.

seA WEEKEND by Gerry Kelley
In a short statement in the last issue of CAMPUS COMMENT a brief e:-.:planation was given concerning the cancellation of S.C.A. weekend. In the hot debate which has followed the publication of this explanation several questions have been raised which I will now attempt to answer.
Social Activities of the sort planned for the S.C.A. weekend fall into the juri sdiction of the vice president of S.C.A. In the function known as S.C.A. weekend the Vice President had at his disposal the financial and personnel resources of th\? S.C.A. Council. In functions such as the abortive Mitchell Trio Concert or the David, della Rosa, and Brook Concert, the vice president had the financial and personnel resources of the Social Activities Committee. With two separate bodies from which to draw, the vice president, through no fault of his own, was unable to present a function which finanCially broke even this year. The reasons for this loss are readily apparent. First, the S. C •• <\. Council has grown in prestige and duties to such a degree that it simply can no longer afford the time or the man-power to devote a full commitment to the running of all-college social functions, And, secondly, the Social Activities Committee has shown itself unable to get organized for the challenge the S.C.A. has delegated to it.
The Social Activities Committee,
LETTER TO THE EDITOR Dear Editor:
I usually hate to jump and "kick a guy when he's down" but in this case I'm afraid that I must. My target was "knocked down" by Mark Allen Leach in the last issue of CAMPUS COMMENT. In this issue my kick will go, preferably, to his teeth.
The very deserving target of this verbal assault is none other than the writer of that wonderful "Rambling On" colurrm, Roger Robi taille, Mark knuckled him for the section of his column (Feb. 28, 1968) that reViewed (????) "Chapbook". My well-placed boot is for the section of the same column that reviewed (????) "Collage."
Good old Roger spent not less than one half of his review on "out of context'~ quoted and he seemed to draw his conclusions from these quotes. Could it be that he only read "out of context" quotes? He also spent about one seventh of his review knocking an obvious typing error. This is quite amUSing since I detected no less than three such errors in Roger's column!l!
A lousy review is something that
can be expected but the conclusion that old Rog drew was really impossible to take. It attacked not only "Collage" but my fraternity which publishes it, Alpha Upsilon. Rog seems to think that we publish "Collage" for publicity reasons only. I question his objectivity on the subject of fraternities since he is a Brother of another fraternity, He said in his column " .•• realizing that a serious literary effort was beyond their reach, the Brothers most trivial trivia, to make themselves known to prospective pledges." Well, this and other statements in the review really beg rebuttal but I will not lower myself to commit the same crimes against critical objectivity that old Rog did.
I'm afraid Roger will never make it as a reviewer if he keeps up this type of thing. He might, however, qualify to be an Mo C. on a T.V. talk show in the immortal tradition of Allan Burke and Joe Pyne.

even though it was funded with the ninth largest appropriation last year, (some 33% more than the S.C.A.. itself) managed to end the first semester apprOximately $300 in the red, The possible reasons for this deficit: lack of patronage, bad dates, inadequate publicity or simply unpopular attractions, may all be somewhat to blame. But it is my opinion that the one major problem concerning social activities is the organization of function management.
The brunt of major social planning at the College falls on the shoulders of the vice president of S.C.A. By law, he is supposed to be able to call upon the Social Activities Committee for aid and assistance. However, the manner in which this Committee is presently constituted makes it almost totally ineffective. Presently this Committee consists of the vice presidents of all recognized campus organizations serving in an ex officio capacity. To think that these individuals can have the time or the inclination to run all-COllege functions is a grave mistake. An individual who desires to serve as vice president of a particular club does so to serve that club and not to secure a seat on the Social Activities Committee. Therefore. the most logical course of action would seem to be the reconstruction of the Social Activities Committee along different lines. This could be done by either making it an elective office with each class submitting a slate of representatives, or purely appointive by the S.C.A. president and vice president, or some sort of compromise. This committee should then be empowered to undertake an ambitious, continuing social program which could include all-college events large and small. The important thing to remember however would be that the members selected or elected to this Committee would serve in the SOLE CAPACITY of administering social functions. These people would be able to afford the time needed to pToduce a high quality function. and theywould acquire the skills necessary to make that function a success.
Over the past three years social life at this college has declined steadily. How much further are you willing to see it decline?
McCarthy or Kennedy Conviction or Opportunism
by Paul Kosciak Everyone said we were without
hope in 1968. Richard Nixon was and still is coasting to the Republican presidential nomination. He is only 46 delegates short of the required majority to secure that nomination at the convention in Miami and his recent show of strength in . New Hampshire adds further credence to this belief. Add this together with the strong conservative block of delegates at the Republican convention who will not vote for NelSon Rockefeller on the first or fifty first ballot, and you almost certainly come up with a Nixon candidacy. Dick Nixon is a worn out and out of date political commodity, and who among us can forget that unbelievable news conference Mr. Nixon held in 1962 after his defeat by Pat Brown for the governorship of California. That was the day he stated bitterly, "this is my last news conference, you won't have Dick Nixon to kick around anymore."

Policy Guidelines for the Naming of College Buildings and Faculties
Is Set
1. The naming of a college building and/or other facility shall .be a means for the institution to recognize and honor conspicuous service on the part of some former member of its faculty, teacher, or administrator, or some distinguished alumnus orbenefactor. Incases involving faculty, the individual should not be an active member of the faculty at the time his name is under consideration.
2. Names already given to aparticular building or facility should be transferred to new buildings or facilities by which they may later be replaced. However, in the case of newer buildings and facilities being additions rather than replacements, the older buildings and facilities will retain their original names, In the event a building is demolished and not replaced with a building for the same purpose, the name allocated to the original building will be placed in abeyance and used.
3. The names of former teachers, when being considered for such an honor, should be limited to those associated with the discipline for which the building or facility was primarily intended.
4. The names offormer administrators, when being conSidered, should reflect some association between their area of service and/or their interests, and the purpose for which the building or facility to be named, is intended. I

MARCH 26. 1968 STATE COLLEGE AT BRIDGEWATER
CHAMELEON .. High Brow Culture On Friday. l\Iarch 1st, the Cham
eleon Coffee House presented the Fine Arts Quartet, composed of four members of the Boston UniverSity Symphony Orchestra, The instruments included a viola, violin, cello, and flute. The program offered four pieces from the classical period, wisely chosen for their approachability, The composers represented were Mozart, Haydn, Johann Christian Bach, and Beethoven,. Ea:::h of the aforementioned composers represents a different stage in the development of the classical form.
The first offering was a flute Quartet by Mozart in' three movements; Allegro, adagio, and presto, The slow mmTement proved to be the most enthralling music of the program. Through soft, gentle flute passages, set against a background of delicately plucked strings, this passage engendered that ethereal quality so characteristic of the music of Mozart. They must have sensed the necromancy of this piece, since they repeated it at the end of the program.
Next was a London Trio by Haydn. Although Haydn was also a claSSical composer the net effect of his music is quite different from that of Mozart's. Instead of a gl'ave sense of form, Haydn's music is more elegant, stately, and dignified. In this piece especially, there were faint echoes of the spritely character of Baroque music. There was constant elegant, variation and resolution of minor themes, which nevertheless made their impreSSion. Despite this elegance, the various movements are resolved through an underlying thematic structure,
Johann Christian Bach was the next composer heard (son of the famous Johann Sebastian Bach). Although J, C. Bach is sometimes listed as an early classical composer (he tutored Haydn), a baroque is equally evident in his
McCarthy Of Kennedy Continued
In so doing he showed that he couldn't even do well- what he is best at. That is losing. And so this leaves most of us without hope on the Republican side.
On the Democratic side things looked equally dim. Lyndon Johnson kept saying "we shall continya" and Bobby Kennedy was afraid for some reason to come through for us.
But then there was Gene McCarthy, at 51, gray, intellectual, hardly the politicians politician, he was deeply concerned about the direction in which this country was heading. as was Senator Kennedy. There was only one difference between them. Eugene Mc Carthy had the courage of his convictions and was ready and willing to risk a humiliating defeat at the hands of the established politicians headed by the President himself in order that he bring his case to the people. He was not playing a politicians game. He was not prepared to wait until 1972 because it would be the smartest thing politicially. He realized that to a large extent the questions facing the country were moral ones. And an honorable man does not put morals off for four years, or sacrifice them to political expediency.
We all know the story of New Hampshire. We have all seen how a single senator, a small group of intellectuals and thousands of dedicated students, most of whom couldn't vote themselves. upset and turned the tables on the established politicians in a truly historic event. Senator McCarthy has provided us with a breath of new hope in 1968.
But now, Bobby Kennedy has finally gotten up the courage to run. He says that he is running out of deep concern for the direction in which this country is moving. He says that he feels an obligation to run. One cannot help but ask, where was this concern and ,.sense of obligation four or five months ago or even one month ago. Even as late as March 16, when he announced his candidacy, Kennedy could have done the honorable thing and pledged his full support to Senator McCarthy. Butthatwouldn't have helped Bobby Kennedy very much. A lot of greatness and a lot class has come from the Kennedy family. It is a tragedy indeed that it all had to die with the late president who was a man of honor. I am for one supporting Gene McCarthy for President all the way.
by Dove Durgin music. The performance consisted of one brief movement. The music was characterized by contrapuntalism rather than straight-line melody. The cello's contribution especially was one of rhythmical opposition. The flute and strings engaged in rapid dialogical interchange. The flute passages were delightful with their constant lighthearted variation.
The last piece was a Serenata by Beethoven, the most powerful and emotionally charged composer of the classical period (also one of the last). The music was firm and intense, despite the small ensemble medium. Emphasis was on a single melody to which all the instruments contributed. There was no evidence of rhythmical opposition. The move:'" ment was the most exciting of the evening. A quick opening by the flute, followed by a staccato-like
accompaniment by the strings led to a magnificently firm and deciSive resolution.
A brief note on the actual performance of the music. Th~ players exhibited a fair degree of technical competency, but were decidedly laCking in interpretive ability. At times, the players seemed to have difficulty in playing together. and suffered several tempo lapses. Nevertheless, their straightforward renditions let the beauty of the music speak for itself.
It was pleasing to see this kind of real, bonafide culture on the Bridgewater campus, since it is a nonentity on this campus. Those who are sentient toward this gap will be happy to know that the Fine Arts Quartet is returning to the Chameleon in May.

brytes, and the Modern Dance Club, Kappa Delta Pi, French Club, PEM Club, and Women's Recreation Association. This preview of women's taste for 1968 showed emphasis on bright prints and stripes in tune with the warmer weather. Although much of the sportswear fashioned was beach oriented - bikiniS, jump suits and shifts - there were a few selections of" After-five" arrangements.
The evening was entertaining, informative and an interesting change for the students and faculty who attended.

discussion groups. These were: Committees; How to Run An Effective Meetingj Responsibilities of Student Government Representati ve s; Image of Council; Making Participation available to Students; Finances; Jurisdiction of Council; and Suggestions for Improvement of Council Functions. Each of the BSC delegates attended two of these conferences where the specific problems and solutions of each college were discussed.
On Friday evening, a very informative lecture on Students' Rights was given by Mr. James O'Leary, ASSistant Attorney General. He explained that it was easier to enforce students' rights at a statecontrolled college than at a private institution. Mr. O'Leary discussed a few specific cases where the courts ruled that a student in a Stateoperated Institution may not be separated from it without the minimum of due process of the law. Unfortunately this lecture was too short and there was no time for a question and answer period. A few BSC delegates, however, questioned Mr. O'Leary on the right of search by the administration in a state college. It was in his opinion that no person could search a room without the proper search warrant, except in cases where there was an immediate danger.
The general meeting of the MSCSGA was held on Saturday morning. The voting delegates defeated a motion to set up a Curriculum Co-
ordinating Team of representatives from every state college, in order to study curriculum problems at these COlleges and recommend changes. It was felt that since every college has such different problems, the plan would not be feasible. A motion was passed to reviv:e the Constitution committee made up of all the State College Co-ordinators.
Under new bUSiness, amotion was made and passed to set up a Grievance Committee composed of all the SGA preSidents. A motion that each State College be required to have a college co-ordinator who will be required to attend the semi-annual College Co-ordinators Meeting was also passed. Before the meeting adjourned, it was announced that the next MSCSGA Conference would be held in November of 1968 at Salem State College.
Throughout the weekend, the BSC d~legates were exposed to many of the problems which pI f;l.gue d the other colleges and they left feeling that Bridgewater was blessed with more acade:m.i.c freedom and a more efficient student government than any of the schools represented at the conference. This, however, did not prevent them from acquiring many new ideas and suggestions for improvement. These delegates did not return empty-handed; but rather filled with enthusiasm and revived ambition to put their new ideas into effect and further enhance the forward progress at Bridgewater State College.

activities among educational institutions and agencies, efforts to improve teaching and interest in humane values were three ofthe major concerns which helped shape the activities of the Danforth Foundation during the last year, according to the Annual Report of the Foundation, released recently.
In making grants during 1967 the Foundation supported cooperative activities on the part of two or more educational institutions whenever feasible. According to Merriman Cunninggim, president of the Fouhdation, "The time has passed when any educational institution conceived with quality and efficiency of operation could pretend or afford to go it alone.
"Opportunities rest not in unilateral action so much as in coordination of effort and program with other institutions sharing the same problems."
The Report also indicated that support for an individual institution was more likely to be given if the particular project held promise of relevance for a broad spectrum of other institutions.
"Foundations have allergies, of course, and one of Danforth's is against the blind or prideful feeling that if Ivy U. has it, lchabod College should have ittoo. Maybe it should," reports Cuninggim.
"In the same spirit we have an inward eye to the possibilities of the Foundation's working with other agenCies. Whether wisely or no, most foundations have felt it best to remain completely independent of each other in their programs, but this isolation is now being amended."
"The Danforth Foundation is glad to be among the first to explore opportunities for collaboration with other philanthropic funds, and the incidence of this form of activity increased in 1967.
"Correspondingly the Foundation, eschewing any involvement with the C.I.A. and fully aware of the danger of accepting covert aSSignments, has not hesitated to cooperate openly with such governmental agencies as the U. S. Office of Education,.
"During the year the Foundation joined with Mr. Harold Howe III, Commissioner of Education, in sponsoring a consultation of educational officers from foundations and the Federal Government to explore mutual interests.
"On the state level we have continued to share with the Carnegie Corporation in the support of the Education Commission of the States. The listing of grants furnishes a number of other examples.
"Yet like many another good idea, cooperation can become a fetish, and an en!l rather than a means. The tabulation of the year's grants omits, of course, reference to those ap-

--St. Peter, Minn.-(I.P.)-Gustavus Adolphus College is participating in a Central States College Association project initiating a cooperative program in philosophy with twelve high schools in the Chicago area. The course to be offered on an elective basis will focus on ethics, logic and theories of selfhood.
Motivation for the program arose from the conviction that in an age of swift change dominated by science and technology, it is imperative that students receive more assistance in forming values which will guide their decisions, actions, and interpersonal relationShips.
The course will be deSigned to appeal to both average and exceptional students. It will be relevant to the individual's needs, whether or not he chooses to go to college.
The program is mad,~ possible by a grant of $250,000 from the Carnegie Corporation of New York City, The grant will make it possible for CSCA philosophy teachers, as visiting members of the high school faculties, to initiate the course. High school teachers will receive stipends for graduate study in philosophy so that they will be prepared to assume instructional responsibilities by the end of the three-year experiment.
In this first cooperative effort. between a consortium of college s and a similar number of high schools, both types of institutions stand to gain from the mutual exchange of information on recent developments.
For too long, it was emphaSized, students have suffered because of the communication gap betweenfaculties of high schools and colle·ges.
Phi Alpha Th~t_a Con~nued fessor Jacobs and Professor Doiron will serve as faculty adVisors.
Phi Alpha Theta was organized at the University of Arkansas in 1921, and since that time it has grown to the point where it now has over 300 chapters in 45 states, Puerto Rico, the Phillipine Islands, and Canada. It 'is the largest, in number of chapters, of the accredited honor societies holding membership in the Association of College Honor Societies. The total number of initiates, since organizai;ion. exceeds 50,000.
The membership of Phi Alpha Theta is composed of students and professors who have been elected to membership on the basis of excellence in the study or writing of History, It is highly democratiC. however, in the fact that any student of history may become a member simply by maintaining a high standard in his studies, as well as in the fact that all members partiCipate in the work and in the direction of the SoCiety.
To receive a charter to Phi Alpha Theta, the college must submit 1 petition to the parent organization of Phi Alpha Theta and which includes a short history of the college and the signatures of at least nine interested students and faculty members. (At Bridgewater, members of the Herodotus Club. which was the sponsoring organization, gave their Signatures). Then the petition is circulated throughout the colleges that have chapters. The petition is then voted upon. and if it is accepted, the charter is granted.
The following were inducted into the Nu-Nu Chapter (BridgeWater's Chapter) of Phi Alpha Theta:
STUDENTS Akerblom, Sidney; Bissaro, Albert: Coulon, Judith; Danis. Henry; Delage, Francis; Gatterman, Myles; Hokanson, Ralph; Hadley, George j Slattery, William; Smith, Peter; Van Buskirk, William; Walsh, Maureen; Wells, Phyllis.

The basketball segment of the intramural program concluded two weeks ago \vith a round-robin playoff in which the top four teams from each conference competed. As in most play-off competition, theplaying ''las very spirited and aggressive, with the usual share of upsets.
In the American Conference, the Mysterians beat the Group 53-40 while the Stiffs were dovilling the Northshoremen 68-40. The Stiffs' victory was considered an upset by many. In the finals of the American Conference, The Mysterians beat the Stiffs 63-51.
The We Five, considered to be the powerhouse of the National Conference, were defeated by the Sigs, 55-49. In the other semi-final conference game, it was the Abe's 60 over the Aereopagitica's 40. The finals saw the Sigs outscore the Abe's 54-41.
In the championship game, the Mysterians defeated the Sigs 54-41. High man for the winners was Henry Fortin who had 19, followed by George Sullivan who tallied 18. Dick Sarkesian led the 8igs with 10 pOints.
This was by far the best year for the intramural basketball program. Under the direction of Mr. Peter Mazzaferro, student directors

asc· OPENER APRIL 6 by Chri"s Brady
The baseball team is going to be a Ii ttle busy this season squeezing in 22 games between April 6 and May 18. But the team shows some real promise. The squad is big this year, 28 players. Eight of those 28 are returning veterans; Dick Copello.
Ronnie Dziergowski. Brian Gilligan, Mike Palladino, Albie Petitpas, Paul Stella, Dick Taylor, and Don Ward.
One of the big holes to plug is going to be a short stop vacated by Ken Dalzell. Mike Cowdrey, Terry Paddock, Dick Sawyer, William Johnston, and Don Chouinard are all scrambling to fill it.
In the outfield there are 5 new faces looking to compete against the veterans for startingpositions. Four are freshmen, John Broderick, Jim Duffy, John Leone, and Frank Serafin. The fifth. Arnold Palladino. is
a sophomore. The real big bright spot is catch:"
ing. Four are looking for the job, Mills Davis, Jim Frederico, Peter Johnson, and Henry Fortin.. They all look real good and may be used elsewhere to get them in the lineup if a couple get hot at the same time.
The big, real big, question mark is pitching. With the heavy schedule 3 good starters are a· must. Don Ward is the only returning pitcher. There are· 5 freshman pitchers up this year, Bruce Larson, Frank Orlandello. Wes Brooks, Stewart Chase, and Dan LeSaffre. But they won't really be tested until they start a game. If 2 of them turn out to be solid starters Bridgewater's baseball team has got to improve on last year's 8 - 11 record. Maybe to the tune of a 12 - 8 seasonfor 1968.

MARCH 26. 1968
The Radical left and Choice '68
Editors Note: This is the first in a series of
three articles concerning Choice '68 which' will be held at BSC on April 24, 1968. Future articles will present views of the extreme right and moderate positions.
For student radicals these daYEl, the menu has been sparse. Vilified by the press and Congress for their noisy activism, scorned by the majority of their moderate classmates more concerned with campus affairs, and lambasted from the pulpit for their flowing locks and sundry other hygienic offenses, they seem to have nowhere to go.
Their views, sound as they appear to them to be. remain largely i gnored, and their protests, correspondingly, have diSintegrated into displays of cynicism and emotional diatribes aimed at the Establishment. The American democratic process strikes them as more absurd with each passing day -- and each mounting criSiS.
CHOICE '68, the National Collegiate Presidential Primary, willprobably either soli.difythe skepticism of the campus radicals or cause them to re-evaluate their thinking as to the actual political power of the vote.
If a sizeable percentage of college students do care enough to participate in the election, and, indeed, do succeed in exerting some appreCiable pressure over the policymakers of the country, then the radicals may well channel their considerable energies into the drive to lower the voting age to eighteen.
If the Primary failS, however, to stir the long silent student moderates or to influence American policy, then leftists will probably remain convinced that only forpeful and, if need be, violent action will produce acceptable political ends. But of more immediate concern is whether the radicals will participate at all in CHOICE 68. The ballot, certainly is well stocked with leftists and moderate-liberals, and the Viet Nam referendum questions should satisfy the most extreme of the radicals. The current anti-administration feeling among students would also seem to indicate that a leftist vote is ?- distinct possibility.
Unfortunately, it's too soon to begin forecasting whether the radicals will respond to or boycott the Primary. The one fact that is certain is that they do have a chance to mobilize and express themselves meaningfully and effectively in CHOICE 68. The decision is theirs, as James Re ston wrote, whether they "want to dream or work." CHOICE 68 may well tell us which avenue they choose.
