Religious Program SuccessBy GILBERT MAXWELL

Another Religion and Life Weekat State College came to a success-

" ful conclusion Wednesday nightwith Rev. T. B. “Scotty” Cowanaddressing an audience of morethan 250 on “A bargain at AnyPrice.”

Rev. Cowan's theme through the«week’s addresses was “not moreengineers, textile men, and agri-culturalists, but better engineers,

. textile men, and agriculturalists.He said, “What the world needs isman who think in terms of humanbetngs; not T‘squares, transits,machines, and money."

Attendance at the addresses wasgood, withapaakofaboutGOOpresent Sunday night. Rev. Cowanheld his audiences spdlbound withhis *earnestneu and his captivatingScotch brogue. Attendance at thevarious profesdonal seminars wasnot so good as hoped for, "but thereason for this was thought to bethat this is the first year the semi-

‘ nars have ben held.

One of the best features of theweek was the special music furnish-ed Sunday night by the MeredithCollege Glee Club; Monday nightby the State College Orchestra andGlee Club; Tuesday night, thePeace College Choir; and Wednes-day night, the St. Mary’s CollegeGlee Club. Soloists were MissRachel Rosenburg, Mrs. CravenHolder, Mrs. Durham Moore, andMr. John D. Holmes.Faculty luncheons and campus

Meel Wilh OllicialsCampus Government President

Jennings Teal announced yesterdaythat further discussions with cityofficials are being held in an effortto settle the issue of whether ornot State students will have to buyRaleigh license tags.Last week plans were made for

presenting a petition to the CityCouncil, and an attorney was con-tacted for advice on the properprocedure to be followed. Since thattime, President Teal and NedWood, assistant dean of students,have consulted with City AttorneyLassiter, who arranged for a stu-dent committee to meet informallywith the law and public safety com-mittee of the city council this morn-ing. ‘

Students who will attend themeeting, accompanied by DeanWood, are Jennings Teal, DickFowler, Emmett Bring-1e, and HoyleAdams. They hope that an adminis-trative ruling will be made exempt-ing students at the college from theprovisions of the city ordinanceunder which they would be requir-ed to buy the city tags. Every ef-fort is being made to avoid takingthe matter to court, but that willbe done if necessary.

Teal said that the problem isbeing approached in a spirit ofmutual understanding and amp-eration, in an effort to establish abetter relationship between the stu-dent body and the people ofRaleigh.

10:00 p.m. and will continue to-morrow when tours will be conduct-ed from 10:00 am. until 5:00 p.m.These tours will include the Engi-neering Research Laboratories aswell as the class rooms and theirexperimental labs. This phase in it-self should be of great interest tostudents of State as well—if notmore so—as the general public,who is cordially invited to attendevery event.Dean Lampe was profuse in his

The Department of Civil Engi-neering, which Professor Mann di-rects, is the second oldest depart-ment at State College and has per-haps the largest number of gradu-ates of any department in theschool. Alumni of the departmentare scattered all over the world, andmany of them correspond with Pro-fessor Mann regularly.The retiring faculty member was

educated at State College and atCornell University, where he did‘graduate work in the summer of1916. At the end of his senior yearat N. C. State, Colonel Holladay,first president of the school, pre-sented him a gold medal for loyaltyto the college.

His professional and technical af-filiations include membership in PhiKappa Phi, Tau Beta Pi, the NorthCarolina Society of Engineers, andthe Raleigh Rotary Club. He is list-ed in “Who’s Who in Engineering.”

Professor Mann is a native ofHyde County, and he and Mrs.Mann reside at 1702 HillsboroStreet. They have a son, Carroll,Jr., of Greensboro; two daughters,Mrs. E. W. Freeze of Randleman,and Mrs. Richard Garrett of FairLawn, N. J.; and eight grandchil—dren.

Vandalism ls EXpensiveWeekends can be quite costly,

several State College studentsfound out. Recently they added con-siderably to the expense of theirweekend by also having to pay fordamages in one of the dormitories.The costs charged against themcovered the following broken ordamaged items: six window-panes,one large screen-reenforced win-dow, and one wooden door. Punish-ment by the STUDENT COUNCILwas narrowly missed.

Students desiring a more eco-nomical weekend are reminded of

these two articles of the CampusGovernment Regulations:ARTICLE VIII. Lack- of respect

for property rights is an offensenext in seriousness to lack of res-pect for the rights of persons. Wil-ful damage or destruction of col-lege property shall be punishable atthe discretion of THE COUNCIL,and in all cases the student shallbe required to reimburse the collegein full for damage done.ARTICLE VI. Section 3. Since

the intoxicated person is much morelikely than the sober person to of-fend the public sense of decency and

exhibit conduct unbecoming I thescholar and gentleman, and sinceeven the cautious and moderate useof alcoholic beverages is habitforming to a deadly degree in manycases, drinking is discouraged, whiledrunkenness and the possession ofalcoholic beverages in dormitories,fraternity and rooming houses arepositively condemned, and offensesarising in this respect are punish-able at the discretion of THECOUNCIL.

ED TAYLOR,Chief Dorm Assistant

Vote . . .Here comes the same old election appeal.Each student, faculty member and adminis-

trative official enjoys equal sufferage on thiscampus. Why do only about half the votersexercise their rights ?To cast your vote takes only a minute or so.

There is no waiting—no long lines. The pollsare centrally located so there is no incon-venience.Vote for the man ofyour choice—but vete.

Engineers’ Fair . . .Thi s a big weekend at State College.Toda marks the reactivation of the Annual

Engineers’ Fair and all indications are that itwill be a huge success.

In years past the Fair has been one of thehighlights of the school year in that it placedthe name of State College before thousandsof high school and prospective college stu-dents. 7The Engineers’ Council and the various

professional societies have , put a lot ofthought and planning into this years’ fair.They deserve a cheer from the college fortheir work. 1

Classes for juniOr and senior engineers aresuspended today and tomorrow. The idea be-hind this move is to give these men time toparticipate in the fair. If the privilege isabused next year’s fair will suffer.

Student Legislature . . . .Because only ten students out of an allotted

twenty-five filed a request to represent StateCollege at the annual North Carolina Student.Legislature, the Campus Government has re-fused to authorize an official delegation.

This apparent lack of interest in- legislativeaffairs is a slap at those members of thestudent body Who are continually gripingabout how poorly their State and Nationalgovernments are run.How can a person make an intelligent criti-

cism of his government unless he knows whathe is talking about ? In order to offer con-structive criticism about governmental af-fairs, one must know the facts; otherwise hehad better keep quiet.The Student Legislature gives students

from colleges all over the state an opportunityto gain valuable experience in conductinglegislative assemblies, how law's are passed,and other important matters pertaining tothe affairs of governments. With this firsthand knowledge, these students will be ableto intelligently criticize the laws which arepassed by our legislators.

It is time for the college student to becomeinterested in his government. In not the toodistant future the destiny of the country willbe1n his hands, and he must be ready to ac-cept this responsibility.

Lack of Interest . . .During the year the Engineers" Council

with the aid of the faculty has been respon-sible for bringing to the campus outstandingmen in the field of Engineering to speak tostudents. Next Monday morning at 11:00o’clock, Prof. Alexander G. Christie, professorof Mechanical Engineering at Johns HopkinsUniversity will speak on a subject that shouldbe of interest to all engineering students.However, it the attendance is per usual,

there will be only a handful present. At thelast lecture, Prof. C. D. Hart of our own In-dustrial Engineering Department spoke onhow to select future employers and how andwhat to do during the first few months ofemployment—a very timely subject. The fewwho attended have acclaimed the benefit theyobtained.When the subject was brought up as to how

to increase the attendance at the lectures,there were two solutions offered. The firstof these was to have the speaker come duringthe day, preferable in the morning. Then allengineering classes meeting that hour could,after roll call, attend the lecture or have theusual recitation. The second solution was tooffer a one hour seminar for credit in which 'the lectures would be treated as . regularclasses and have,a speaker each week.Something should and muSt be done. It is

quite apparent that the advice and knowledgethese visitors are offering to the students aregoing only to an interested few who realizetheir value.

ihe Tradition of lhe Inspired Word(Editor’8 note—This is the fourth

in a series of articles on teachingby R. E. Manchester, Dean of Menat Kent—State University.)

Score (second-quarter) '——“Us”-0“Them”—61. Frenzied “Us” fan tofrenzied “Us” fan in frenziedvoice, “Wait until the half! Waituntil the coach gives them the in-spired word!”

Score (final) “Us”-0 “Them”-172. Hum! Hum! Hum! The coachhad it and gave it (the word) butit didn’t take. The coach “seen hisduty and done it,” but—Oh Wellll“Them” probably had professionals.

There are many cases where theinspired word doesn’t take. Everyresident in every cell-house had theinspired word sometime in his lifefrom teacher, preacher, parent orfriend but there are no sure-firerules about the thing and some-times the speaker of the “word”scores zero in results.

Regardless of a few' failures itis one of the oldest traditions of theprofession to hold high the torchand lead onward. Social failures,famines, floods and scourges cause

break-downs in our human plan-ning but never do the teachers re-lax in their faith or in their efforts.Coaches do many things other

than acting as chief dispensers ofinspiration but ask any one ofthem about the difference betweenwinning and losing and you willlearn that even coaches follow 'tra-dition. They talk about the “willto win”—“a team that won’t bede-feated can’t be 'defeated”—“point-ing to a certain game” etc.

All teachers, like all coaches,preach the doctrine of idealism andstrive to so condition students men-tally, emotionally and spirituallythat they are susceptible to sug-gestion and sensitive to the appealfor perfection. If one is searchingfor an explanation of civilizationand reasons why’ there is such athing it will be more profitable forsuch an investigator to observe thedaily work of the humble teacherthan to follow the trails of destroy-,ing armies. And, of all contribu-tions such a teacher may make, noone can surpass the inspirationgiven to fire ambition, strengthenpurpose, and give confidence.

Truman’s Education Commission ReportsSweeping revisions in the sys-

tem of higher education in Ameri-ca are called for by the President’sCommission on Higher Educationin its series of six reports recentlycompleted.The Commission, composed of

outstanding educators, was ap-pointed by President Truman lastsummer to “examine the functionsof higher education in our democ-racy and the means by which theycan best be performed."The number one need for higher

educ'atien today, the group hasfound, is the expansion of highereducation facilities so that morestudents may be able to attend col-lege. The Commission urged ex-tension of free public education

through the first two years of col-lege as one of the steps towardmeeting this need. At the sametime, it stated, there should be a“concerted drive to reduce all feesfor public colleges and univer-sities.”

Citing. the phenomenal growth ofhigher education in this country,the Commission stated that collegeenrollments in 1947 jumped to theunprecedented total of 2,354,000. Ofthese about 1,000,000 were veter-ans, receiving college training un-der the G. I. Bill of Rights. In ad-dition there are today approxi-mately 1,500,000 other veteranswho are receiving some form oftraining through the educational

Despite this record, however, theCommission stated that “one of thegravest charges to which Americansociety is subject is that of failingto provide a reasonable equality ofeducational opportunity for itsyouth.”The Commission believes that by

1960 there should be a minimum of4,600,000 students enrolled in col-leges and universities. Of this num-ber 2,500,000 would be in juniorcollege, another 1,500,000 at thesenior college level, and the re-maining 600,000 would be collegegraduates who would continue theirstudies in graduate and profes-sional schools. The Commissionstated that nearly half the popu-lation has the mental ability: tocomplete two years of college andat least 32 percent has the mentalability to complete an advancedliberal or specialized professionaleducation.

“In a real sense the future of our, civilization depends on the directioneducation takes, not just in thedistant future but in the days im-mediately ahead,” ’ the Commissionstated in its first report. Educationwas described as the biggest andmost hopeful of the Nation’s enter-

Iponrme Anon-~13With Bill Haas

. Pardon me, but my slip is showing! Last week I made a sad mistakefor a new man on the job. The statement was made in this column thatBill Boney was teamed with his brother, Charley, on the tennis squad.Might be that Bill had rather be here at State than down in Wilmingtonnear the beach, but I doubt it. Bill is an ex-tennis star of the local insti-tution of learning. Charley is carrying on in the old Boney tradition,though”

Welcome To New CoachesNow that I’ve made my excuses, comes the rolling out of the welcome

mat for two new additions to the Football coaching staff. Charles Rameyis replacing Bob Suffridge as Assistant Mentor, and Al Rotella is taking

’ over line coach duties.You’ve read all the dope on both of these men in the local papers long

before I could get in a word in my column, but here1s my first impres-sion: Both men are good coaches in two respects; they know their foot-ball, and they can handle men. ‘

Incidentally, both of them are looking for apartments (as who isn’t inRaleigh;) but if you know of a place that is a little too expensiverfor ,the average college student, give the coaches a chance at it. . . . I’mgonna’ play Winchell and predict an addition to the family of CoachRotella. The blessed event should be in August. Another good reasonwhy an apartment in Raleigh would be appreciated!No word yet from the sponsors of the. Collegiate Billiards competi-

tion, but any of you fellows who would be interested in forming a Bil- ‘liards team, drop me a line.

Big Four Scrap SlatedFor Local Park

By BILL HAASThe Wolfpack is moving into mid-

season play in the Big-Four Base-ball League with a full-strided leadover all contestants, holding num-ber one spot with a two win, no lossmark.

In Southern Conference play, therecord isn’t as good for Coach Sor-rell’s stickmen. At press time, the’Pack is batting .500, with two winsagainst two losses in Conferencegames.

Starting out with an unimpres-sive batting display, the ’Pack hasshown improved swatting ability inthe last few games and is now of-fering heavy hitting to any pitcherwho tosses ’em over.

In a game this afternoon atDevereaux, Sorrell’s team will tryfor the third win in conference com-petition when it plays host to theFurman nine.Duke Plays Return Game HereA fast game should be the order

of the day when Coach Coombsbrings his Diamond Dukes over tothe local field tomorrow for a re-turn engagement. The Blue Devilssuffered an embarassing 18-14 losson their own diamond last Saturdayand will be out to reverse the count.The game at Duke was more of a

scoring marathon than good base-ball, with both teams swingingway for nearly three hours ateverything that eight hurlers of-fered.

State Off To Fast StartState ran up a one-sided 12-4

mark in four innings of play beforethe Dukes could get into the ballgame. Bob Edwards pitched goodball for seven innings and thentossed every pitch he could musterat the Devils without getting anout.

Ernie Johnson took over hurlingchores and walked two men beforehe could settle into any semblanceof good pitching. After he warmedup, Ernie turned in two innings offair hurling to hold the Dukes incheck.McComas Still Heaviest HitterMcComas again took hitting

honors with 5 for 6 “at bat.” Utleypicked up 4 safeties for 5 trips forrunner-up honors. Perini had anearly perfect afternoon for theDukes with three base knocks infour trips up. Bergeron, who playeddespite a weak elbow, crossed theplate for three of the Devils tallies.

Back in Raleigh the Wolf--pack lost a match with the Uni-

adel phved easy meat for the StateCollege boys, going down to thetune of 6-2. The last doubles matchwas rained out, but was not neededfor the win over the military boys.The contest with the College of

Charleston proved a close affairwith the state netters coming outon top 5-4. State won four singlesmatches and one double for ‘itspoints.Down at Columbia, S. C., the

In Raleigh, the class of the BigFour, the Carolina Tar Heels, de-feated State 9-0. The highlight ofthe match was State’s number oneracket swinger, Art Culberston’svaliant effort to stave ofl’ Caro-lina’s ace from getting game, set,and match point.

noua? name Added to Gridiron” Sta-,The recent announcements of the signing of line coaches Al Rotella and Charles Ramey to the State Col-'

lege grid staff comes as a big boost to the State Colleg football prospects. The addition of these well-quali- =fied men will do much to hastenthe working into shape of next fall's Wolfpack gridders. The appointment ofRotella and Ramey to the coaching staff fills the vacancies created when Bob Suffridge and Lyle Rich 1 .departed, Suffridge to The Citadel and Rich to private business, and gives Coach Beattie Feathers threefulltime assistants. Backfield coach Babe Wood fills out the list.Al Rotella came to State shortly.

after graduating from the Univer-sity of . Tennessee in March. Re-'ceiving his degree in Physical Edu-cation and minoring in SocialScience, Rotella came to State witha high recommendatiOn from Ten-nessee’s head coach Bob Neylandand Tennessee’s line coach. Ney-land has long been noted for thefine ball players he Has turned outand Rotella is right in line.

Rotella starred for four yearsat the tackle post for his collegeteam and also played first stringbaseball for three years, alternat-ing at first base and catcher. Heplayed freshman ball his first yearat Tennessee and played on Ney-land's Sugar Bowl team his firstvarsity year in 1943. He also playedon Tennessee’s Orange Bowl teamthis past year.

Jolly, good-natured Rotella, whois only 28 years old, compiled anexcellent record while playing forhis high school team in Patterson,N. J., hometown of present Wolf-pack footballers Bob Bowlby, TedDostanko, and B. Smith. He wasvoted the most outstanding line-man in New Jersey in 1939 andalso received All-State and All-Metropolitan honors the same year.While at the University of Ten-

nessee, Rotella served as Presidentof the Letterman’s Club, similarto our Monogram Club, and was amember of the Sigma Phi Epsilonfraternity.

Rotella likes Raleigh and StateCollege very much and says hisambition is to keep old friends andmake new friends. The manyfriends he has made in the shortwhile he has been here indicatesthat he will have little troublekeeping the amity he has gainedamong the players, students, andother members of the College.

Serving three years in the Army,Rotella spent his first 17 monthsat Camp Croft, S. C. before goingoverseas as a replacement in thefamed Second Division at St.France. He was a leader in a ba,zzooka squad for 16 months beforebeing wounded in Vire, France.Following his hospitalization, be
