Congratulations Are In Order
The members of Alpha Kappa Lamba should be congratulated for their efforts in bringing nature closer to the
students of Central State.
AKL has been working on a park near the fieldhouse, and
present plans call for the labeling of all wildlife in the
area, so the non-science student can recognize the trees and
plants.
This is only one of the many services that the members
of AKL are doing for their college. It is too bad that certain
other campus groups cannot follow the example that AKL
is making and leave their high school days behind them,
while working to better their college.

are also doing outstanding work in offering their services
to the community.
The Acquinas Club has made a good start on this campus,
winning the Songfest trophy and taking such an active
part in the Winter Carnival. They are also working on the
local cancer drive.
·
Also, a new fraternity of ex-boy scouts, Alpha Phi Omega,
has outlined a broad program of proposed services to Boy
Scouts in the Wisconsin Rapids, Marshfield, Stevens Point
area. We ~ish them success in their undertaking.

Notes On An Editor's Desk • • •
Hats off to the sophomore class and its great work in getting Harry James and his orchestra to the CSC campus.
There certainly must be organization behind the mov~ment
and much of the credit goes to class president, Gary
Schroepfer. Here's hoping the concert is as big a success
as "From Here to Eternity" was last week.

APro-Committee Man Speaks
To the Editor,
The blunt statement in the
• Pointer that the House Committee on Un-American Activities is
"definitely violating the constitution in the way that it conducts
Itself" is so rash and unfounded
that I cannot help but comment
on it. The writer gives no evidence whatsoever to support this
accusation, which along with the
inherent absurdity of such a
statement indicates his ignorance
of the matter.
•
From the context of his comment, he implies that this was
the conclusion reached by those
~;tudents attending the showing
of the film. This is certainly
not the case, as would have been
obvious had he attended. This
is in spite of the fact that the
discussion was dominated by certain faculty members present at
the showing who attempted to
discredit the acti~ities and existence of the committee.
Perhaps it is appropriate to
mention the organization which
fs leading the fight against the
committ~. the Emergency Civil
Liberties Committee. Quoting
Representative Scherer, "the Emergency Civil Liberties Committee is the most active, the most
dangerous Communist-dominated
and controlled organization in the
country today."
In the United States internal
security is unquestionably one
of our greatest problems. Those
who believe the Communi.llt
threat to be wholly from without are in their ignorance allowing the conspiracy of the mistaken to grow even more dangerous.
Although some criticism of the
Un-American Activities Committee is perhaps justified, those who
advocate its abolition should
ponder seriously the consequences of stripping Congress of
its power to investigate and thus
dete;mine what, if any, legislation is needed and will be most
effective. A legislative body deprived of this power cannot be
expected to function effectively.

Revolution of
The Advanced Mind
by Joseph Lona.x
AUTHOR'S NOTE - I believe that college students, by
the time of graduation and even before that time, should
undergo a mental revolution; thus enabling them to contribut-e more effectively to this wonderful country. Of what
importance is college or any school if the students graduate
- with the. same concepts they started with? In presenting
the following essay I have tried with open mind and open
heart to expz:ess facts without prejudice or favor to anyone.

It has been brought to my attention th!J.t two other groups

With an eye to the centennial
of the Wisconsin State College
system, the Board of Regents 6'!
State Colleges heard recommendations at a recent meeting on
how to celebrate the hundredth
birthday.
A report prepared by a special
Centennial Committee headed by
Dr. Walker Wyman of Wisconsin
State College, River Falls, was
presented to the Regents for
their consideration. Among the
general recommendations contained in the report were the following:
1. That the system observe its
birthday by state-wide activities
and programs in 1966-67, and that
the term "centennial" be used to
designate the buildings started in
that year.
2. That the Board of Regents,
presidents and faculties present
to the public their "Plan for the
Future of the Wisconsin State
College System."
3. That the Board, presidents
and faculties plan some major
experiment in education that
would be of . the importance of
some programs .already being
conducted.
In discussing. specific events
which could be undertaken during the observation, the commit·
tee suggested a centennial lecture series by distinguished national leaders in higher education, by distinguished alumni
and by State Colleg~ faculty
members.
The committee . also suggested
the commissioning of certain
works in the field of the fine
arts including drama, poetry,
and musical compositions. It
pointed to the value of exhibits
of art, painting and sculpture
touring the various colleges, and
the enrichment of the regular
convocation series.
Regarding centennial publications, the committee advanced the
idea of a 'three-volume work on
the nine colleges. The first volume would be devoted to chapter
histories of each institution,
while the second volume would
discuss the rise of a system of
higher education. The final volume would comprise selected lectures given on various campuses
during the centennial year.
Establishment of a State College quarterly also was noted by
the committee.
If history is fact and the beginning of the United States is ns
a lie, then it stands to reason that all people in the U. S, aPe he
as a result of immigration either directly or indirectly. There
no certain race that can be classified as true Americans, howeve
a combination of all races could easily be labeled thus. For tht
word American pertains to a way of life, not the name of a ract
in that way of life.

Colleges will be urged to prove
they are college caliber by suocessfully completing a summer

This policy was backed recen..

admissions officers, and it is ex•

will be on the summer session.
Many State College people believe that rank in class and marks
on entrance examinations are not
overly valid, and that having a
student carry a regular progralll
during the summer session could
be a better test.
"If he can prove that he can
do this work," said Dean Milton
Longhorn of Platteville, "he
should have the opportunity to
attend college."
If the student finds out in the
summer se§sion that he cannot
do college work, he will still have
time to make plans for the coming year. Longhorn thought this
method less expensive to the stu·
dent and to the taxpayers of the
state, if the student decided he
did not like college or failed.

Out Of The Pen
By Haugsby
Most of you will probably think
that this column is just plain
"out of it." Perhaps so, but have
you ever observed nature so
closely that you felt almost as if
the trees and streams were talking? I feel almost certain that
many fishermen on the first day
of the season and long afterward
talk to the streams and to the
fish. Why then can't they talk
back - if we use our imagina·
tions a little!
The weeping willows whisper
softly. What are they saying?
Can't you tell? Listen. They are
speaking of love - the love of
man for man and the love of God
for all. Who are we to question
the trees? While we retreat in
time of storm, it is the tree who
stands straight and tall. Oh, yes,
they bend a little now and then,
but don't we all? Yes, it is the
trees who know - if only we
could hear and understand. But
then, how often do we even stop
to listen, stop and look and listen and try to understand? In
this work-a-day world of rush·
rush-rush which dominates the
American scelli'! how many, yes,
how many stop to notice the
brook or the willow or the pine?
Our life is a good life, but it ·
could be a life of so much more
if only we had the time!

Special g~eetings are in order for CSC sorority pledges who
seem to be bearing up very well during their four week pledge
period. In spite of a few frayed pledge pin ribbons and some
ragged pages in the pledge books, all (including the actives) are
still "grin-and-bearing" it! All the pledges are being kept busy
planning and caNying out plenty of activities these days. And
just so each girl will have something to. remember pledging by
(as if she eVf,!r '}OU\d forget it), the pledges will probably be going
on pledge dates. :rhe girls will select the "man of the moment"
and ask him out on a date, This may explain the even greater •
than u~ual number of female calls to Nelson and Delz~ll. (Just
kidding, of course!) The pledge dates are really lots of fun for
everyone involved. There's no need to go into the details because
if you heeded the advice in last issue's "Sisters We," you no
doubt identified a pledge, were nice to her, and went on a pledge
date with her. If the strategy did not work and she asked your
room mate instead, you can either address your questions to Ann
Landers care of your local newspaper or else just wait until the
fall rushing season and try again!
.
On~ last word to the pledges. Are you feeling tired, run-down,
fed-up with life in general? Well, just eat two bowls of Wheaties
every day. Remember, pledges are made - not born. Cheer up,
kids! You've got just a little over a week left. Say, on second
thought, maybe you'd better eat three bowls of Wheaties during
the las week. And they've got a special offer on vitamins down
at the drug store .

CSC Profiles
by Lois Holubetz
Caryl Erickson HalWk
William (Bill) Clark
A very familiar person at CSC
Is Bill Clark, who hails from
near Plainfield, Wis. Bill is a
music major and began his musIcal work early 'in life.
While attending Tri-County
high scnool in Plainfield, he
participated in many contests and
won nwnerous awards in vocal,
saxophone, and trumpet solo
' work. He was lead bugler in the
Hancock Drum and Bugle corps
and attended a three-week music
- clinic at the University of Wis·
consin. He was also president of
the Student council and the seni·
or class.
When Bill came to us in the
fall of 1957, he continued his active participation in college ac·
tivi.ties. As a member of Col·
lege Theater, he had one of the
lead roles in "Sabrine Fair" and
a lesser role in "Teahouse of
the August Moon." He also had
the lead male role in the opera
"The Medium."
Bill has been a soloist with the
college choir for three years and
has been a member of the brass
choir, the swing band, and the
college band as well as being
the manager of the college pep
band in 1958-59.
Last· month Bill presented his
senior recital. He has also been
active In city music organizations.
He has played in the Civic
orchestra and last summer was
a member of the Stevens Point
Municipal band.
Bill is married and has a little
boy, Thomas, who is about six
months old now. Next fall will
find Bill and his family living
In New Lisbon where he has just
signed a contract and will be
teaching band in the high school
there.
His ·words of advice are to
those who may be considering
marriage during college: "Don't
try it unless you are sure you
can finish school. Marriage is a
wonderful thing - in fact, I
think the most wonderful thing
that ever happened to .me - ·but
I have heard too many young
married couples -say they would
never do it over again if they
had another chance. So, be
sure!" This is the voice of exp~rience s_peaking, co-eds, so take
heed! •
As Bill leaves our campus, we
want to thank him for giving so
much of his time and talents to
us and then to wish him much
happiness and success in his fu.
ture teaching career.

our familiar profile for this week.
Caryl Erickson Haack came to us
in 1957 from Maria high school
where she was active in forensics and the dramatic club, and
was a member of the Drum and
Bugle corps.
Caryl decided to take advantage
of the college right outside her
door and has become well-known
on campus through her many
activities here at esc.
Sorority has played a big part
in her four years here. Caryl be·
longs to Omega Mu Chi sorority
and has been their historian,
press representatives, and, last
semester, president. Sorority is
a thing she will al~ays remem·
ber when recalling happy memories. She considers it a valuable
experience which no girl should
miss.
Other activities she has participated in include: Newman
