Coach Kirkland has 14 lettermen
returning, but 12 of them are re
turning to the line. While this is
good hews for line coach E. W.
“Red” Burnette, it is also a prob
lem to backfield coach Horace
Turbeville. The Indian coaching
staff will be forced to develop
some very young freshmen into
seasoned veterans overnight, for
only ace quarterback Tom Gor
man and halfback Phil Orsini re
turn from last year’s backfield.
However, former Newberry ace
Jimmy Lowder has decided to give
his injured leg another chance, and
will return for his final year of
eligibility. If his leg has healed,
most of Kirkland’s backfield wor
ries will be over.

MEDITORIAL: Mrs. S. D.
wrote the following letter: 4 ‘ I am
expecting a baby. It is important
to me that my husband is present
at the birth of the child. He also
wants to be there, more than any
thing else.
“Can you tell me of a hospital
that permits a husband to be
present in the delivery room?
Any information you supply will
be appreciated, since we are both
determined to see it this time—
even if I have to stay home and
deliver it myself.”
I recently commented on this
subject and I feel some additional
remarks are in order, especially
since this type of request appears
to be getting more popular.'
It has taken many years of
medical research and progress to
reduce infant and maternal mor
tality to practically nothing. Much
of this is directly due to con
venient, modern and sterile facili
ties of hospital delivery rooms so
that emergencies, when they
arise, can be handled with greater
ease and safety. This guarantees
the best possible care for both
mother and child. An intruder
into the delivery room could upset
all of this.
There are strong feelings among
doctors both for and against per
mitting fathers in the delivery
room. In general I side with those
who are against. My main reason
—there are several others—is
that the potential father may not
have the ’’stomach” to watch. He
may get sick and faint, thereby
creating another problem. This
is especially true if the delivery
is difficult and complicated.
Before you do anything you'll
be sorry about, you should give
careful thought to delivering your
child at home. You are flirting
with danger and stand a good
chance of injuring your child
/or yourself.

The forward wall should be no
problem what-so-ever for Kirkland,
as he did not lose a single starter
from last year’s line. Up front the
Indians will be paced by Captain
Tommie Witt and Co-Captain
Jimmy Routon. Charles Haggard,
a speedy, 235-pounder, will help
Witt at the other tackle, while
little, but determined Jimmy Vil-
leponteaux will be Routon’s part
ner at guard. Travis Rowell, a
bone-crushing tackier, should
prove more than adequate at cen

an ‘all time high’,” Mr. Lander
stated.
The regular session will open
September 6, when all students
are asked to register. The follow

are allowed to advance at their
own rate. The classes are small
and the teachers excellent.
All citizens interested in enroll

The Catholic University of America
The Catholic University of America was founded in 1889. It began
as a school for priests, run by priests, the Paulist Fathers. In the
years that followed, the Paulists were joined by other religious com
munities, to the extent that today some fifty-five reUgious communi
ties are located near the University so their members may attend
its classes.
But, Catholic University is no
longer a school run by priests for
priests only. Today it is recog
nized as the national center of
Catholic culture, and more than
two-thirds of the student body of
4,400 is composed of laymen and
women who arc not members of
a religious order. The seventy-six
priests, five nuns and one brother
who serve as faculty members
are greatly outnumbered by 229
laymen who are full-time teachers.
The University is located on 140
acres in the Northeast section of
Washington, D.C., and comprises
more than 35 buildings.
The schools of the University
include Sacred Theology and Can-
oq Law (in which Latin is the
classroom language); the School
of Philosophy, Columbus School
of Law; Graduate School of Arts
and Sciences; Engineering and
Architecture; National Catholic
School of Social Service; School
of Nursing; College of Arts and
Sciences.
Students from every state of
the Union, from many territories
and dependencies of the United
States, and from 60 foreign coun
tries are registered in 1961-1962.
The University’s ratio of more
than two-thirds graduate and pro
fessional degrees to less than one-
third undergraduate degrees is
unique among all the universities
of America. According to a study
by the National Academy of Sci
ences, National Research Council,.
1956.. 543 doctorates in arts, hu
manities, and social sciences were
granted by the University during
the period 1936-1950 inclusive. The
University, for such number of
doctorates granteo in this period,
had the ranking of 13th among all
the universities in the country.
The other 14 Catholic institutions
listed in this study gave a total of
558 doctorates compared with the
University’s 543. The figure of 543
does not include hundreds of doc
torates awarded by the University
in Sacred Theology and Canon

Missile Work Stoppages—
There Ought To Be a Law
THE CONGRESS recently re
ceived from the White House a
list of “must” legislation to be
enacted before adjournment.
Missing from the list was a pro
posal which is particularly vital
to our national security. It is
S. 2631, a bill to prevent work
stoppages at certain strategic
defense facilities such as our
missile development and launch
ing sites. The bill would prohibit
strikes at such facilities and set
np special boards to resolve
labor-management disputes to
prevent delays in our missile
and space programs. I am co
sponsoring the legislation, with
Senators McClellan, Ervin, Cur
tis, Holland, Mundt and Lansche.
Congressman Dorn has a similar
bill in the House.
THE NEED FOR passage of
such legislation has been amply
demonstrated by a Senate in
vestigation headed by Senator
McClellan. The investigation re
port, filed on March 29, 1962,
revealed that during a 4 Vi-year
period between 1956 and 1961
more than M 325 work stoppages
occurred at 19 Air Force opera
tional sites and three test sites,
resulting in s total loss of 162,-
872 man-days.** Approximately
one-half of the man-days lost
occurred at the missile test cen
ter at Cape Canaveral, Fla.
SINCE THE REPORT was
filed there have been fewer work
stoppages because of the ad
verse publicity and the work of
a presidentially appointed Mis
sile Sites Labor Commission.
Senator McClellan pointed out
on the Senate floor on July 19,
however, that the “tools (of the
commission) are not adequate
for the complete security and
protection of this country.”
Since that time electricians at
Huntsville, Ala., working on the i
Saturn big booster rockets with <
which we hope to surpass Soviet
rocket booster capabilities, have
caused a serious work stoppage.
IRONICALLY ENOUGH, the
danger of work stoppages at
strategic defense installations
was first pointed np in 1960
when the Senate Labor Commit
tee was considering the common
situs picketing bill to permit cer
tain types of illegal secondary
boycotts at construction^ sites.
A secondary boycott is the ap
plication of pressure by # a union
against one business or contrac
tor in order to force another
business or contractor to accede
to the union’s wishes.
IN TESTIFYING before the
Labor Committee on June 28,
1960, 1 pointed to specific work
stoppages which had occurred at
missile base construction sites,
adding that the common situs
picketing bill would increase
such occurences. I urged that
the bill not be enacted and that
the committee initiate an in
vestigation into work stoppages
at vital defense installations.
Later I supplied figures from
the Defense Department to show
that labor disputes in 1960 cost
the U.S. 78,469% man-days on
missile projects alone.
NOTHING MORE was done
on this subject until 1961 when
Senator McClellan initiated his
very revealing investigation. In
addition to the finding of the
162,872 man-days lost during ft
4%-year period, the McClellan
committee also found the follow
ing fsets: (1) “s deliberate
! policy of low productivity:** (2>
“that many workers, through
strikes and other pressure tac
tics, have collected millions of
; dollars In exorbitant, unneces-
| sary overtime pay in s brasen
gouge of the UJS. taxpayer;”
(3) “featherbedding and loafing
j have also been practiced at these
bases;** (4) “the international
unions did nothing to control
their local officers or to dis
cipline their local unions during
the 4% years;** and (5) “man
agement has not been blameless
. . . operating under cost-plus-
fixed-fee contracts, (they) were
indifferent to skyrocketing costs
on excessive overtime payments,
overmanning of jobs and im
proper supervision.**
WITH WORK STOPPAGES
continuing, particularly with the
recent Soviet challei.^eE ix>
space, it is past time to legislate
against strikes at strategic de
fense facilities. There ought to
be a law to protect our national
security against any delay in
speeuing our missile and space
programs.
Sincerely,
jCLamn— 'i&juLri/vv\JbrnJt.
