Oh, professors can TRY to get to know us EDITAR'S The "bulletin" (meaning "important late news") board by the ground floor elevator in Russell House is still displaying placement notices for October, 1964. * * * The missing lights on the steps between Russell House and fraternity row create a blind spot and real safety hazard to the many people who use that route. They've been out for so long now though most stu dents have learned to feel their way. * * * One of the reasons the cafeteria has no room in the mornings is half the chairs are )iledx with trays. (And the trays with fairly unappetizing left-overs.) All of us having less than two broken arms could carry our trays back they're lighter with less on them. * * * P1eople enraged over the "no boys in South for breakfast" plan, cool off; it's just to create a more informal eating atmosphere: (i.e.-girls don't have to wear lipstick). It's not an administrational lIot against coedI ucational communication. * * * Freshman elections don't have to be popu larity contests. A class this size has the po te'ntial, and its officers the obligation of uni fying and assisting its segment of the stu (lent body, later organzing services and so cial events. * * * Whatever you (10, VOTE MOND)AY.

B. Sams. Easy Courses with pop quizzes and games of Alphabetical Seat Assignment. WE, however, have THEM as classified as an ad in the Yellow Pages. Many of our courses now don't measure up to what-we-expected. Is the teacher to blame? Many of us are in traps of our own making. See, back at registration we scouted up Crip Course 21, and stood in line three hours to get it. The word was out that no body made less than a B under good-hearted Dr. Monotone. How could any grade be worth squirming in our seats for 50 dead hours a semester learning NOTHING! Is this the kind of ed ucation we're willing to spend a few thou sand dollars and four years of our life on? This kind of education shouldn't even be (1vailal here. USC has some outstanding, inspiring teachers. They are balanced out by others who are as stimulating as a glass of warm grape juice. The ones we resent are those who don't even try ; the textbook readers who treat each class like the Junior Book Club Story Iou r. We appreciate ENTHUSIASM. We irant teachers who can instill in us a real passion for Pairadisc Lost. They don't have to erect a trapeze over their desk, just act a little bit excited about what they are telling us. Then again any teacher would feel frus trated after awhile of practically putting on a floor show to 35 unreceptive stone walls. Education is a two-way obligation. It's to be attained by faculty and students work ing together, not trying to out-scheme each other. And as for these easy, little-or-no-care re quiredl courses and teachers, there is no p)lace for them in this University. Nor for the studlents who want them. cLellerJ lo IIAe &dilor ..

Everyone there stood up, yeled, sang, showed what arolina meant to him. But "beveryone there" was something like 150-200 students - out of 8,000-10,000. Then came Saturday night, the big game. During the first half, there was a little spirit - most of it coming from the end zone where several hundred Boy Scouts sat. In the second half Carolina scored a few times, so the noise picked up a bit. But still, hun dred.s of students missed the last touchdown or two, because they left early to avoid the rush. A winning team is a wonderful thing; but this cannot always be the case. Whether or not the team wins, we, as students, are obli gated to give them our support. Agreed that much of the spirit we do have is stifled by our le0ers. EntWerta inmen 'Gras: After having talked to D)uke Ebert, the technical director for the University Players' forth coming p)roductionl, The G;ras /l/arp, I realized the magnitude andi( expanllsive scope~ of the sets rpressuon declarle Columbia at diaseter area. Along with the smell of factory mIoke' pi pes and burnt gasol ine walks a boy. Not only (loes it in crease5( thet p)rolemn of air p)olu tion, it also contam iniates th at minority of clean people. Odor germs are not content to conftitne t hemsel ves to one i ndivid tal, they wait until a washed girl comets withbin dlistance and hey imm ieiiatel y spring on her. For' she can feel the germs as soon as shet cantt see the boy. If these male scholars would think of the re'pre'se'ntation they are giving their school, they wouldi quickly hand in their hub bde gum for their towe'ls. All mle(s of htigher learning k now hat a healthy body reflects a he'althy mind. And, men, your hodit's aret dec'ayintg andI your grades are slippJing.
