Third annual Christmas party is planned at JSU 1 Y 1

For the third straight year, Jacksonville State University will host a Christmas party for all children whose father is serving in the military service in Vietnam.

The party is set for Dec. 13 in the Round House and students a r e already "digging into their poc- kets for funds to pur- chase toys for the ex- pected 300-400 children of North Alabama whose fathers will be away from home for the Christmas season.

Various dormitories a re also collecting food for needy families that live in the Jacksonville area.

.This procedure iq be- ing followed throughout the state by various civic clubs, "Goodfellows" and

'other organizations. The unique party at Jax

State originated in 1965, due to the contents of a let ter from a soldier in Vietnam to a Jackson-

ville minister. He wrote his minis-

ter: "If I had one wish, it would be that I could be home for Christmas with my family . . .especially to see the children's happy faces when they see what

,S a n t a Claus brought them."

Knowing this was im - possible, the student body here did the next best thing:. had a party for his children and others in the same situation.

Here come the Greeks Only a few short years ago, social fraternities were

in the dreaming stages at JSU. Many thought they would stay there, but today they a re a reality, thanks to many hard-working pioneers.

Delta Chi was f irst on the scene (see page four), and they a re doing a splendid job. "AT0 is next!" is the c ry around certain quarters, and this group of young men will not be content to let Delta Chi out- do them in anything.

Shortly before going to press, the CHANTICLEER learned that Alpha Xi Delta, the f irst JSU women's social sorority, began pledging campaign Sunday morning in the Round House. Many students have waited a long time for this news.

It goes without saying that we must have the JSU administration's backing in the formation of these fraternities and sororities. So far s o good. The success o r failure of these pioneer Greeks could determine the administration's policy toward those who hope to follow. --LS

O u r first anniversary Wednesday, Nov. 22, is the f i rs t anniversary of

jacksonville State University. It was only a short year ago that Jax State achieved university status, but much has happened during that length of time.

We a re currently involved in an $8 million build- ing campaign, and when this one is over, another enlargement program will take i t s place. But growth alone does not make a great university.

Rapid growth always brings problems, whether i t be on a city, state o r national level. JSU could be com- pared to a boom town, but s o far, we have kept ahead of the major problems, trying to solve them before they become acute.

Happy anniversary, JSU, we hope you have many more a s successful as the f irst .

Are thankful? At mid - November each year, newspaper editors

across the United States traditionally use this space of the editorial page to remind readers of the aspects of their existence for which they should be thankful.

To enumerate such items o r s t r e ss an ap - propriate degree of gratitude to CHANTICLEER read- e r s would be insulting the assumed intelligence of college students. Each student has the reasoning and cognitive ability t? understand the meaningof Thanks- giving without being told these positive points.

In a negative sense, however, we might pose the question, "Are we thankful?"

Consider facets of day to day existence which a r e taken for granted o r looked on with frustration and disgust. Though they might not be pleasant, what would the individual's potential for the future be without a few challenges today?

The bulk of today's college students have been de- prived of little.

The post World War I1 generation has yet to endure such economic castastrophies as the depression of the 1930's. Again in a negative sense, the Vietnam War, which mars our time, directly affects only one o r two per cent of the total population of our country, com- pared to World War I1 which brought 13 million persons o r approximately 20 per cent of the population under a r m s o r into a direct war effort.

Very fortunate - - this generation - - b u t , "A r e we thankful?'

Even odds--Freshmen will not finish in four years Each semester at Jacksonville State Univer-

sity, the State of Alabama bets an undeter- mined amount of money against the students $130 tuitition payment at 50-50 odds that the entering freshmen will not graduate in four years.

Following mid - term tests, many first semester freshmen may not believe the odds a r e as favorable a s 50-50. Mid - term grades were mailed last week and the odds have begun improving as the f irst dropouts leave campus.

Regardless of mid - term warnings, 25 per- cent of the freshman enrollment of 10 weeks ago will not be around to register next fall. By the time graduation approaches four years hence, 60 per cent of the beginning class will have dropped out of college. A fraction of these will return and complete their education or finish at other schools. Simple mathematics dictates even odds.

Although these figures a r e national aver- a'ges, Jacksonville State University Dean Theron Montgomery says the figures are about the same for this institution.

Mid - term reports may have awakened. many to the realization that college isn't all dates, football games, beer busts, dances and card parties. For most freshmen and sophomores there is still time to "make the grade."

Dean Montgomery l ists three requirements for a successful college career: money, moti- vation and preparation. With few exceptions, money is available or the student w o u 1 d n o t consider attemping college. According to Montgomery, today's high schools turn out a better prepared student for college enrollment than ever before.

"Lack of motivation" said Montgomery, "is the principle reason for the high attrition rate."

The mean annual income for the male col- lege graduate is approximately $4000 above that of the high school graduate. The security of dad's car, a regular allowance check, the position of "big boy on campus", a 2-S - draft deferment and the ability "to maintain one's cool" more often than not over - shadow this difference in salaries.

This lack of motivation described by educa- tors is not necessarily a negative attitude on the part of the student, but rather a positive attitude that everything has taken care of itself for the past I9 years. Why should i t change now?

That one is not decided on a vocation should not account f ~ r a lack of motivation, since a well - rounded liberal arts education is of value in that it prepares the individual for life as well as employment.

Many dropouts rationalize their actions by telling themselves they will return to college when they decide what they want to study and pursue as a vocation. All too often, a wife and child prevent this return. ,

When mid - term grades a re received, s i t down and take stock. One shouldnot be con- cerned with the individual courses he is passing o r failing o r what he knows about each course. Although each student's situation will be dif- ferent and can be resolved only by the in - dividual, several general questions will point the way if ithey a r e answered truthfully.

Lying to one's self o r rationalizing will benefit no one. The individual student is the one who must ask the questions and is the only one who will gain from truthful answers.

Face it; no one else cares1 Assuming each student enrolled is financially

and mentally capable of remaining in school one might ask:

For what otper reason am I in college than to get an educatiyn?

Did I really- want to come to college? If so, why? If not, why not? '

Am I gaining knowledge now that will be use- ful in beating my future co - worker to a $50 per month raise, o r am I merely trying to keep up a minimum point average until I graduate 3

Do I consider myself to be an adult? If so, do I bare the same adult responsibi-

lity toward my studies that my former high school friends do toward their "adult" occupa- tions?

STOP: Read the above questjons again slowly and answer each question. Remember, it's even odds one won't make it, even if he admits the truth.

The JSU dean pointed out other things enter-

ed into the picture and were often linked with this lack of motivation. Marriage, .m i 1 i t a r y service, and the p r o s p e ~ t s of an immediate good paying job often override what interest the student may have in college and replace the goal of a college education.

Re - enrolled JSU dropout, Jim Reaves, appropriately summed up the beginning of many college students' lack of motivation by re- lating him that his parents asked him at the age of 18 "Where a r e you going to college?" rather than "Are you going to college?"

Reaves, who said he believed himself to be a typical case, came to college five years ago, "Because i t was the thing to do" andhecould enjoy the "fun and goodtimes" associated with college l i k . Geclining grades soon shattered this dream and motivated Reaves - - motivated him to join the U. S. Air Force.

Skipping around the world, Reaves said he soon realized the importance of a collegeedu- cation and "on my own initiative" and "with- out prodding by parents or teachers" en- rolled in night courses while stationed in Japan.

"Suddenly I found myself proud to be enter- ing school," said Reaves.

Motivation may be gained in other ways than military service.

A look at the "dog eat dog" competitive world of the future would be sufficient i f the 18-or 19 - year - old could see i t clearly. Too often, however, his view is obscured by parental security.

Annual progress for draft deferment How long a student has been in school com-

pared with the percentage of his curriculum passed is , under the new selective service law, the current determining factor for student draft deferments.

The selective service college qualification test, offered to students last year will not be given this year, according to Alabama Selective Service State Board officials.

The new law stipulates the student must complete 25 per cent of his undergraduate- prograin in each of the twelve month periods for whicb a deferment may be granted.

At Jacksonville State University this means, with the exception of one curriculum outlined in the cpllege catalog, 32 semestel. h o u r s must be "passed" each, year. The board ar lows the summer semester fgr students tcfmakt: up any work they might have failed during the regular nine month school term.

Classifications a re reviewed and assigned about November of each year, after it has been ascertained the student is in school that fall and meet the requirements in the pre-

ceding 12 months. Student standings within the male portion

of their class is not reported by the school to the Selective Service Board t h i s y e a r . T h e only report that is required is one stating the student is taking a full - time load by school standards.

The student must submit his own request for deferment, either on the form'provided o r by informal letter. In cases of oversight, a full time student meeting other requirements, but receiving a I-A classification, will be changed if approved by his local board.

Graduate student deferments are available .under the new law to persons entering grad- uate school in the fall or' 1967 uninterrupted from four years of undergraduate work.

Selective Service officials have pointed out the new law applies to this year and it may be changed this year. One official agreed, the SSS considers i ts needs and the number oT- students which i t may have to induct in form- ulating each year's law. It coul..d be changed

- next year, he said.

For any male student failing more than one course, summer semester attendance seems the only road to a d~fe rment . -

Nov. draft: 51 1 f

Alabama's November draft call has bee;, set at 511 men, according to Selective Service State Director Hugh J. Caldwell, J r .

Mean yearly income for men during a lifetime according to years of school completed, 1963

Years of school Less 9-1 1 12 16 completed: than 8 and over

The October Alabama induction call was for only 388 men, o r 123 fewer than in November,

An overcall will again be necessary to fill the quota. In order to get 311 inductees, i t will require some 730 registrants being called to the Montgomery Armed Forces Examining

Station. The difference is caused by the number who will fail entry for physical, mental, o r moral reasons, or who wilI enlist in the service prior to induction.

The nation's draft quota for November is 22,000 men, compared to 17,000 in October.

Caldwell said that in Alabama, some mar- ried men will be included in the November figure of 511. However, no fathers will be draft- ed. The call will be composed of registrants 19 years of age and older, in Class I-A, and I-A-0. examined and acceptable.

Qelta Chi: Success to organize

Delta ~ h i - i s off to the races.

Jacksonville State Uni - versity's f i rs t and (at pres- ent) only fraternity, Delta Chi, has se t a precedent which will be of help to fraternities to come.

In short, Delta Chi is a . success story of how toor- 3anize the f irst fraternity 3n a college campus, a n d convince people that i t can (and should) be done.

Delta Chi r e c e n t l y wrapped up i ts fall semes- t e r program of forming the pledge class, according to Steve Carlson, president 3f the fraternity.

The approximately 35 pledges have started their written program, which is a se r i e s of lectures on the operation and tradition of the fraternity, and at the conclusion of the program they will then take the na- tional pledge exam, Carl- son stated.

Pledges who successful- ly complete the orientation program will be initiated into active membership in a special four day initiation period at the beginning of the spring semester. A Delta Chi delegation from Auburn will assist in the initiation.

"We a re moving rapid- ly in our growth on campus," stated Carlson. "We received official recognition from JSU in May of this year, and since that time, much progress has been done." he added;

At present, there a r e 1, active members of Delta Chi. The members went through orientation and initiation in September at Auburn.

A house has been rented at 419 North Pelham Road by Delta Chi, but it will be a t the beginning of the sorinr semester when the

fraternity moves , in, a1 - though two members will live at the house in the meantime. Nov. 15 is the tentative date set for the f irst two members to move in.

Approximately one doz- en Delta Chi members will live in the house, which contains six bedrooms, large living room, den and recreation room, dining room, kitchen and offices. The new fraternity is in the process of securing a new house mother.

"After we move into the house, we hope to have one night each week as date night, when members can bring their dates over for dinner," Carlson stat- ed, "and Parents' Day is being planned o r the near future."

Although the fraternity is basically for the brother - hood of i t s members, cer- tain scholastic require- ments have to be met and maintained by all Delta Chi members. A 1.25 overall average is the minimum requirenient.

By the end of this+year, Carlson said, the mem - bership of Delta Chi should be around 65-85. "If we continue our present ra te of growth, we should re- ceive our national charter _in the spring," he adp&

Officers of Delta Chi are: Carlson, president; Jim Dozier, vice pres - ident; Jim Ferrall, sec- retary; T e r r y Wagner, t reasurer; Davia Hale, cor- responding secretary and C h a r l e s H e n d e r s o n , sergeant - at - arms.

Other active members, in addition to the officers, include, David Milam, Jack Wheeler, Jim Henders on, Johnny Dotson, Phillip Mc- Mann, Bill Stone, Alan Rhinehart and Bill Mc- Arthur. --Larry Smith

Musical is a smashhit

"Stop The World - I Want To Get Off", presented last week by the JSU mus- i c a l department, was a smash success from all angels.

In reveiwing the mus- ical, C. L. Simpson, JSU faculty member, n o t e d : "The play got thoroughly prof e s s ional treatment at the hands of Rose Mary Minihan, Carl Stewart and a spirited company of young ladies in Rose tights."' Mary Minihan, who

directed the play, took the roles of typically English Evie, Russian Anya, Ger- man Ilse and Ginnie the A m e r i c an chantoosie. "H e r c h a r a c terizations were a delight, her sing- ing an indication of what imagination and taste can do when informed by intelligence," Simpson ob- served.

Moccasins rolled over the Jack- sonville State University Game- cocks by 21 to 0 score Satur- day.

An overwhelmed Gamecocks9 squad managed to invade the Chattanooga team's territory only three times. In each case, they lost the ball on fumbles o r pass interceptions.

The contest claimed to be the Moc's most impressive victory since they downed Georgetown University 86 to 0 in 1952.

UC complied a net rushing yardage of 334 yards while hold- ing the Gamecocks to minus 24 yards. Jacksonvillet s only gains were picked up on Bruce P e e r s and Bubba Longs completion of 1 3 of 44 pass attemtps.

The 162 yards gained was 31 more yards than Chattanooga picked up on aerials.

The defeat gives Jackson- ville a 4-5-1 record for the year and a 1-1 record in the ACC.

ing player from either side is like looking for the needle in the hay - .stack, because both the teams had their share of heroes. For the winners, Andy Bellanca, Joe Piaz- za and the entire line did an excellent jolj of gener- ating the offense when they found themselves be- hind early in the game. On d-efense the line play of Jim Hart was outstand-

ing a s he and Dan Penny constantly pressured'tne

Rats quarterbacks. The Rats almost broke

the game open on the open- ing kickoff when Marc

Calton raced almost all the way for the score. The run set the IM champs deep in Star territory and moments later they broke the scoring ice go- ing ahead 6-0.

The first couple of downs, the All - Stars were unable to move and had it not been for a fine defen- sive effort the Stars might

board once again, and on another screen pass; McFarland scored.

The two point conver- sion was good a s Bellanca ran it, and the score now was 16-6 in favor of the All - Stars.

Sticking mainly to the ground this trip, the Rats came fighting back and scored as Barclay Fish- e r swept end from four yards out. The all im- portant conversion was missed.

The Stars were quick in adding their final score, as a pass from Bellanca to Richard Cochran was good for 56 yards and the final Star score. The con- version was missed and at the end of the third stanza the Stars were ahead 22-12.

Tim MacTaggart, op- erating at tailback, di- rected the'Rats to the final score of the game. Mac- Taggart, forced out of the pocket many times by the hard rush of the All - Star line, ran like a demon, and when he stopped the

fine opposition. With only an hour's work they gave the people who turned out f o r the game one of the best games, if not the best of any year,

(Third in a ser ies of columns on the prob- lems of recreation at Jacksonville State.)

My column this time takes the form of an in- terview with Mr. Fain, dir- ector of Auxiliary Ser- vices at the University, a s he explains some of the responsibilities of the Uni- versity toward prpviding recreation for the stu- dents, and outlines briefly some plans for the ' future.

Q. At the present, what i s the function of Auxiliary Services with regard to furnishing r e A creational activities for students at Jax State?

A. With the use of the Student Union Buildingand the Roundhouse, we are now furnishing the students a lounge, a Coffee Shop area with a color T. V., a recreation area consis- ting of ping pong, tables for cards andvarious other games, and an area for group meetings and dances in the Roundhouse. The ten- nis courts, under the supervision of the Coffee Shop, a r e also available f6r student use when they are not being used by the ten- nis team or, for clas- ses.

Q. f ith the completion of the Student Commons Building, what expansion of service i s tentatively plan- ned?

A. We a r e now limited by a lack of space; but upon the completion of our new building, this will not be a factor. We hope to offer our studentsmuch more in recreational acti- vities. There will be a larger student lounge, a large game room and eat- ing space equipped with a snack bar. The building will have office space to accommodate the Student Government Association, student publications, var- ious religious organi- zations, and other student- rclated activities. It will have an auditorium and a student organization con- 7

ference room. Q When is thecomple-

tion of this building plan- ned?

A. We a r e very happy that Dr. Cole approved the construction of this magificent building for our students and with the com- pletion tentative11 set for- December, S68. t Certaltl ly will be an ideal Christ- mas present for our student body.

**** This is not a com-

plete picture of the se r - vices now offered, or which are planned to be offered, hy the University. - All of the services could not he mentioned in this article, due to the fact that not all activi- ties of this nature are incorporated under one ad-,

ministrative body. For example, in the last col- umn the facilities at Self Val1 were mentioned. These come under the general heading of the Ad- ministration, but the act- ivities there a re not co- ordinated under Auxi- liary Services, but are in- dependent of it. The same can also be said of the Intramural Program in sports, which is furnished throilmh the Administ- rat i 1 but which operates independently of Auxiliary Services. There are, per- haps, other activities spon- sored or furnished by the Administration which a re not mentioned here. My apologies if this is so, and I would appreciate being notified i f there is something I might have missed - here. A thought in closing, then: Could all of these programs be better coordinated and run i f they were all brought under the same office? It does seem, on the surface, anyway, that any program could be better run if all of the functions of a particular nature-- in this case studmt rec- reation--could be coor- dinated in one organization.

'Opinions are welcomed.

Blood drive (Continued from Page 1)

Percentage wise, a total of 26 per cent of the JSU student body donated last year, placing the college fourth in the two state area. Only Snead Junior College, Auburn and the University of Alabama outranked Jax State last year.

Although the Red Cross officials expressed their sincere appreciation to the Jax students for their part- icipation last year, a much higher goal has been set fo r this year's drive.

This year, trophies will be given to top dormitory donors in both the men's and women's divisions, plus a trophy to the top ROTC company.
