The section of England known as

Devon and Cornwall is one of the

loveliest and most unspoiled parts

of England.

Student Council Announces PlansFor New Student Center Fund

"Southwestern will get a Student Center yet." This is the

phrase that seems to be running through the minds of South-

western students lately; it also happens to be a subject which

always creeps into their conversations.

Council Plans

After discussing future plans for this much needed addition

for our campus with many groups and officials without re-

curring any definite results, the Student Council has proposed

a plan to establish a fund which will be used to help pay for a

'Student Center. Many forthcomingevents and contests will be spon-sored with proceeds going into the

fund. Mike Cody, president of the

Student Council said, "We know we

could never raise enough money to'pay for the Student Center, but

this plan will create interest. The

publicity that we should get will

also let others know about what

we want and what we are goingto do."

Beauty RevueAllen Reynolds, president of the

sophomore class, was appointed to

head the committee to plan con-

tests and events that would pro-vide money for the fund. The first

event which the committee has

scheduled will take place tonight

at the Beauty Review. This con-

test is being handled by the Junior

Class, and the girls selected as

beauties and favorites will be fea-

tured in the 1958 Lynx.

Other Events

Other forthcoming events which

are still in the planning stage are

a quartet contest which will becompetitive among the fraternitiesand sororities and a carnival which

will be held the afternoon before

the April Fool Ball; the carnival

will be sponsored by Torch and

Omicron Delta Kappa.

he was right or not, for his means

of presenting his proof was fasci-

nating and mysterious.

The help that people in Europe

gave to us was always hmazing.

We were able to attend the Gen-

eral Assembly because we had

taken the wrong stairs and an old

Scotsman had let us, very illegally,

in. When we came to Cheddar, our

first wish was to visit the cheese

factory. We told our wish to a

storekeeper; he knew the factory

owner, so a tour and a present of

cheese was at our disposal. There

is a famous gorge at Cheddar so

we climbed a mountain near the

gorge and stayed all day reading,

eating cheese, and lying in the sun.

The moment we came into the

county of Devon, we began to in-

quire about clotted cream and

strawberries. Somewhere in the

hills we found our paradise. It con-

sisted of a thatched cottage be-

side a stream. Up the sides of the

house grew large, red roses. A

little old lady served us clotted

cream, strawberries, scones and tea

at a small table beside the stream.

In Cornwall we stayed at a little

town on the coast not far from Ply-

mouth. In order to get to the hostel,

it was shorter to take a boat

across the bay rather than take

the road. It was almost sunset.

Beyond us was the open sea, behind

us lay the hills of Cornwall. One

of the men aboard began to quote,

"Crossing the Bar." "It was at this

spot," he said, "that Tennyson

wrote that piece. Can ye not feel

the peace?"We came back to London by way

of Cambridge and Oxford. These

days were some of the happiest I

had spent in Britain. I felt re-

freshed and was ready to meet both

family and friends after a ten

months absence,

The Peacock's Taleby Bates Peacock

Things are really going from bad

to worse ... the rat race made me

almost completely forget about mylittle column andI raced to getthe thing in ontime. Reallythere's quite abit to talk about

i::' this week. The

send off for theStudent CenterFund is fast ap-proaching withthe Beauty Re-

view tonight at 7:30 in Hardie.Mickey and Beryl have reallyworked hard to fix the stage andI hear it's a beautiful backdropfor the beauties. The show wouldbe well worth the 25 cents and toquote Andy Gandy .. . "Our great-grandchildren can enjoy the resultsof our donation!"

ZTA Dance

Tomorrow night is the Zetadance - a Hawaiian theme -- it'should be well worth the time.

I found this bit of verse on AliceFitch's door and thought I mightpass it on:

A Parody with ApologiesI think that I shall never seeA grade more lovely than a "B".A "B" when earning lets us restWhen "C" and "D" and even lessHave made us look at God all dayAnd lift our weary arms to pray.Poems are made by fools they say,But only God can make an "A".

New Valentines

Congratulations are in order . .after one year Walker finallypinned Diane and what excitement.Even the Dean came in and offeredcongratulations.

Also three cheers for the girlwith the newest rock on her thirdfinger, left hand. She really sur-prised us all . congrats Sandyand Stony .

And a last little bit of applause. to Nancy Woodell and Earl( the

soldier from N. C.) She has hisfriendship ring now . . .plus some

beautiful poetry . . . we're anxiousto see what Valentine's day willbring . .. ??????

I'll end with a Happy St. Valen-tine's Day to all . if you gotcandy . . . well, I'm not on a dietany more. .

an official delegate, the conferenceis open to interested students,

(continued on page 4)

Category:Conference Rooms

The library conference rooms have again been closed, and

the students of Southwestern have no one to blame but them-

selves. We who were outraged with the Library Committee forclosing the rooms the first time, we who. petitioned the Student

Council with righteous indignation, and we who promised faith-

fully to respect the rights of the use of the room have been the

cause of their second, closing. Privileges belong to those who

earn them, but we have neatly destroyed all "rights" to the.-

use of the conference rooms.

iMany students were shocked when it was announced that

chairs had been broken, gum stuck on walls, and tables burned

deliberately with cigarettes. Surely, the majority of the student

body is not responsible for the willful destruction, but the

minority groups are the students who cause the restriction of

all privileges. We who wished the rooms reopened were those

who were responsible for their protection. We failed as a group,

and we must not only, suffer the restriction but bear the blame

for our failure.

Certainly if we are to expect the cooperation and the goodwill of the Student Council, we must cooperate with them. Wehave not only failed them, we have also embarrassed them be--

fore the faculty and before the Library Committee. As in-dividuals and as a group we must show the Student Council

we are worthy of their work. Perhaps we may learn from our

mistakes and support our Student Council in the future. Theyare not working for their own interests; they are working forus. Our great task is only to deserve their work.

change. Three of them are calledmotions, but the fourth is not. Thethree kinds of motion according

to Aristotle are: change in place,or locomotion; change in quantity,or growth and diminution; changein quality or alteration. The fourthkind of change occurs when some-thing changes not in respect ofsometing like quantity or qualitybut changes absolutely. Such

change is exemplified by birth anddeath; in it the very substance of athing disappears and anothersubstance, appears. Hence Aris-totle calls such change substantialchange or sometimes generationand corruption.

Basis Locomotion"The other answer .first given

by the ancient atomists, but alsothe prevailing view of change sinceDescartes, is that there is only onekind of change, namely, locomotion.All the other kinds of change areonly apparently different. Uponanalysis, they can all be reducedto locomotion. All qualitativechange, for instance, must be un-derstood, on such a view, as dueto the rearrangement of basic ele-ments or particles. This would bethe primitive way of accountingfor qualitative change; but eventhe sophisticated account of mod-ern physics is not essentially dif-ferent. It is the motion and thearrangement of electrons and simi-lar particles that account for quali-ties, and qualitative change comesabout when the pattern of theparticles change.

These two views of the kinds ofchange are connected with dif-ferent views of what change is.For Aristotle, all change involvesthree things: something whichchanges, something .from which thechange starts, and somethingtoward which the change is di-rected. If, for example, a leaf inautumn changes in color fromgreen to red, the leaf is that whichchanges, green or the absence ofred is that from which the changebegins and red is that towardwhich the change occurs. Beforethe change starts, the leaf is onlypotentially red; when the changehas been completed, the leaf isactually red. Change then consistsin the actualization of the leaf'spotentiality for redness-as long asthere is still some potentiality for

redness left. When no such po-tentiality is left, when the leaf isactually and completely red, thechange has been completed.

Change Potential"This position then, views change

as a kind of potentiality. The op-posite position holds that change(which means locomotion for thisview) is completely actual. Thereis no difference between rest andmotion in this respect. They areequally actual and real. Where

for Aristotle and his followerschange describes a precariousstate that must have an end, forDescartes, Newton, and their fol-lowers motion is no more or lessprecarious than rest. It is as com-

plete as rest, and no more aimsat any end than rest does. Newtonstates his first law of motion asfollows: 'Every body continues inits state of rest, or of uniform mo-tion in a right line, unless it is

compelled to change that state byforces impressed upon it.'

"When motion is conceived asreal and actual, it is also conceivedas intelligible and analyzable. Be-ginning with Descartes and New-ton, therefore, physicists have be-gun to apply mathematics to mo-tion in order to understand it.Coupled with the advances inmathematical technique, this un-derstanding of motion has madepossible the development of thescience of mathematical physics.'e

Outby Tennessee

Things got too hot! So, this

semester, as the Lord giveth

and taketh away, it has been

given to and taken from your

old pal Tennessee. Namely the

shaft and the column. This is

Mississippi. All letters to the

editor should be so addressed.

So, on with the business of

the week, which is Stella. At

the Guild, regarded as essential

for all single men and married

one who are disappointed in

their wives. (no names)

Peyton Place, psuedonomen-

clature for Zoo U., is still at

the Strand. The book is better!

If you missed the Warner

last week, a purge is to befall

you. Reform School, the life

and legend of Jane L., is amoving biographical sketch ofwhat S'western girls are being

saved from. This week is some-

thing that sounds good. "Get-ting there was murder, getting

out was hell." Now where

could that be?

Sing, Boy, Sing, at the Malco

is acceptable but that's about

all. And the circus was in town.

The KD brawl was markedby a good band, good crowd,and many happy people. Eh,Frostie ?

As to campus affairs, I'm all

for them and shall do my best

to keep the "Greaaat People"

informed.

Unusual CollectionsIn Treasure Room

The Treasure Room in Burrow

Library is the scene this month of

a very unusual collection of gifts

recently accumulated from various

sources by the Jessie L. Clough Art

Memorial Collection. Miss Etta

Hanson, curator of the collection,

keeps open the Treasure Room-

which is on the same floor as the

conference rooms-during most of

each school day, for the conven-

ience of students and other visitors.

The most unusual of the recent

additions now on view are a series

of Siamese paintings and a fifteen-

foot frieze, painted on cloth, from

Bali, all of which were sent by Miss

Helen Fogg of New York.

On the walls are four very fine

copies of European Renaissance

paintings, done by Miss Adelene

Moffatt of New York. Mrs. Car-

ruthers Ewing of Memphis recentlywilled the collection a large, carved

Italian chest, which is being shown

for the first time.Also of interest are pieces of

Danish pottery and silver, the un-

usual and interesting "wedding

spoons" from Norway, a Picasso

tile, several drawings and litho-

graphs, and a.Korean dancing cos-

tume given by Miss Chung Sook

Pal, a former student.The present exhibit was arranged

by Mrs. Dan Ross. Miss Hanson

feels that many students will be

interested in seeing and hearing

about the outstanding pieces it

contains.

February 19, the Guild Art

Theatre will present "Don Gio-

vanni" in its first Memphisshowing. Admission will be $L25for adults and 90c for students.There will be one showing onand Thursday and two show-

ings on Friday and Saturday. Be My Valentine

Student Center(continued from page 1)

Among the other contests whichhave been suggested was that of

a bridge tournament. This idea isbeing considered and will probablybe scheduled for the spring. Manypeople have expressed their desire

for having such a tournament, andbecause of this interest this planwill probably be accepted.

You Can Help

And you ask how can I help?Here are some suggestions: At-

tend all the proposed contests and

events which the Student Councilis planning, talk up these plans asmuch as possible, tell everyoneyou know about them, and con-

Lynxcats Decisioned Lynx Drop TwoBy Union B'ham. So. On Road Trip

Southwestern closed out Its homecage season on a dismal note for

- the Mallory crew. On January 18.

the Lynx dropped a 79-96 decisionto Union University and eight dayslater a 56-66 game to BirminghamSouthern.

Young High Scorer

With only four minutes gone in

the Union game, flashly guard BillYoung had accounted for eightpoints and the Lynx led 14-8. Butthe taller Bulldogs tied up thehome team 36-36 with three min-

utes left in the half and led 39-44at intermission. In the second half,

Southwestern got off more shots,

but couldn't cope with Union's re-'bounding and 53% shooting aver-

age. "Although the Lynx lost thegamc, Bill Young won the scoring:honors with a 30-point perform-ance.

Close Game

The Southern game was even

closer than the score would indi-cate. The visitors took the tip-off,but missed their first shot. Lynx'

MoMo Wailer rebounded and drovethe length of the court for a cribshot and Southwestern led 2-0. But

Southern used its superior height

and then slowing down tactics theremainder of the period.

Lynx Rally

Going into the second half be-hind 24-31, the Lynx rallied and

closed the margin to a mere 32-33disadvantage. Playing a deliberatetype of ball, the visitors were ableto maintain their slim leadthroughout the contest. Towardthe end, Southwestern's attemptsto catch up backfired, and the

Southerners increased their lead at

the foul line and by lay-ups.

Southwestern Scorers

High scorers for Southwesternwere MoMo Wailer with 17 tallies

and Bill Harris and Joe Boals net-

ting 13 apiece.

The Lost and Found Depart-ment of the Business Office hasmany unclaimed articles wait-ing for the owners to come byand identify them. Among theitems are keys, gloves, glasses,fountain pens, mechanical pen-oils, bracelets, -checkbooks, andseveral smaller items.
