President Henry said that "Inasmuch as LaGrange is a Christian college, it is import- ant that this vesper chapel stand as a symbol of the place of religion in the life of our institution."

The chapel is located on the east side of the campus, next to Park Avenue. "It is intended that the chapel will provide an atmosphere conducive to meditation and worship," Dr. Henry said.

Unique Is Word For LC's Chapel

BY HARRIETTE LANE It is symbolic that the new

college chapel at LaGrange Col- lege is both the most beautiful and most sturdy building on the Methodist campus.

This is the opinion of the president, Dr.Waight G. Henry Jr., to whom the chapel is 'the fulfillment of a longtime dream."

The chapel, a gift of Callaway Foundation Inc. of LaGrange, will be dedicated Wednesday at 10 a.m. by Bishop John Owen Smith of Atlanta.

Architectural and construction experts have told Presi- dent Henry that because of the fine materials and workman- ship in the chapel, it should stand for several hundred years-or at least as long as any existing structure in this city.

Monroe Doctrine Lives "Cafeteria??"

BY JOHN WHITE

After last week's rather abor- tive attempt at "columnizlng," there is a natural reluctance even to look at a typewriter. This week, however, putting hu- mor aside, let's take a serious look at the Dominican situation.

President Johnson, by send- ing United States troops, has come close to a reestablishment of the Monroe Doctrine. Since Cuba's Fidel Castro publi- cly tore up the Doctrine several years ago there has been no ef- fort to claim its existance other than a few flowery politican's phrases uttered on the Fourth of July or some other patrio- tic holiday.

The Monroe Doctrine has served primarily as a semi- protector of United States inter- ests in South American countries and has made them, in the^past, like U.S. protectora- tes. In essence, the government favored by the United States was the government established in those countries.

Recently all ofthishaschang- ed. Starting before Castro, one by one the countries of South America have begun expressing their own independence by oust- ing, some with communist block support, dictators like

Juan Peron, Trujullo and Batis- ta.

This seeming independence on the part of South America has put Washington in a rather precarious predicament -- sit idly by and let the communists have the Southern Americas or exercise force and armed intervention and keep them.

The United States' policy, until two weeks ago, had been one of maybe-if-we-sweep- it-under-the-carpet- it - will- go-away. It didn't.

President Johnson has re- opened an almost-forgotten era in American policy towardSouth America. The southern hemis- phere countries are strongly opposed to armed intervention. The Charter of the Organiza- tion of American States de- nounces intervention in any form.

Seeing these positions against intervention, it is interesting to note that criticism is coming mainly from the countries that have Communist leanings. The OAS itself has endorsed the United States' action.

It seems that the U.S. has finally learned its lesson, and from a good teacher-Dr. Fidel Castro.

RODD BUELL LaGrange College is ex-

tremely fortunate in enjoying the exquisite cuisine prepared in our modern new 50 degree air-conditioned "cafeteria." Visitors have been overheard leaving the premises raving on how the wonderful food served within literally takes your brea. th away.

In our bright happy dining hall nothing is cause for sur- prise. Salt in the sugar bowls is casually laughed off with com- ments such as, "It gives the cof- fee such a delicate flavor" or "It's just what my cereal need- ed." Who wouldn't laugh with delight at finding a band-aid in his brown-leafed salad, or hair in the sweet potatoes?

The student is king as soon as he enters the dining hall; everything there functions for the single purpose of satisfy- ing him and producing within him a warm contented glow after his banquet style meal is finished. The eye-opening fruit juice, hard-tack type biscuits, frozen butter, and steak a la mystery " meat cannot be equalled (at a comparable price) anywhere on the Hill.

I feel that the outstanding job being done for the student body by the cafeteria deserves some form of recognition. All sug- gestions as to the form this sincere expression of grati- tude should take will be appre- ciated. Incidentally, a propos- al that the cafeteria be remod- eled in garbage-can gray and disposal pink is presently under consideration by the Student Cafeteria Beautification Com- mittee.

By the way, the next bus to the Brazier leaves in 20 min- utes.

The United States Air Force selection team wiU visit La- Grange College on the, 11th of May, 1965, from 8 a.m. till 2 p.m.

The qualifications to become an officer of the aerospace team are as follows: age 20V2 to 29]/2, bachelor's degree or

within 2io days of graduation, good physical condition and passing the Air Force Officer Qualifiying Examination. There are no restrictions on dependents.

An officer is a man among men. He is above his civilian contemporaries in mental and physical ability. He must not only lead effectively but also follow effectively. Each officer is a vital part of the defense of this nation. He must be able to control his own mind and body, set an example for others, and be a stable, consistent, effec- tive leader. Our philosophv and concept of training is de- signed to prepare the man for leadership.

If you think you are this man, then stop by the student center at LaGrange College on the 11th of May and discuss the opportunities available to you through officer training school.

When Dr. Jotham Johnson visited the LC camDus in Feb- ruary, he discussed archaelogy and language. The New York University professor of classics has now written a let- ter to the editor of the Satur- day Review magazine. We think you will enjoy his epistle about the latter subject.

Dedications This Week The president's home is the

former residence of the late Hatton Lovejoy, a LaGrange at- torney. Following its purchase, it was renovated and refurnished through gifts made to the Consolidation Fund.

Raised under the leadership of trustee Joseph L. Lanier of West Point, the $250,000 Consolidation Fund was used for a large number of campus im- provements, Dr. Henry said.

The LC president said that because of the limited space in the new home, only trustees and faculty members, their wives, and contributors to the Con- solidation Fund have been in- vited to the dedication of the

Plans for both the new buildings were drawn by Biggers, Scarbrough and Neal, Archi- tects, of Columbus. Traylor Construction Company built the chapel, while Daniel Lumber Company renovated the home.

Bishop Smith will deliver the dedicatory address at a service in front of the chapel. Dr. Hen- ry and Trustee Chairman Avary will also participate in the cere- mony.

The LaGrange College Chor- us, under the direction of Prof. Paul W. Doster, will perform special music.

A native of South Carolina, Bishop Smith served Methodist pastorates in that state until his election as bishop in 1960. He now administers the work of his denomination in the Nor- th and South Georgia Annual Conference.

Bishop Smith is a graduate of Wofford College and Yale University.

(ACP) •- If some college cour. ses were judged on a monetary basis -- $21 for three credit hours - the University of Okla- homa would be forced to set up a bargain table at the end of enrollment, says the OKLA- HOMA DAILY.

Take for example, a class in which the professor consis- tently arrives 10 or 15 minu- tes late. Since he makes a habit of tardiness and teaches only part of the class period,should- n't that class sell for about $17.35. Or, on the other hand, the class where the teacher runs out of material 15 or 20 min- utes before the hour and usual- ly lets his class out early should be quite a bargain at $12,60.

A class where a professor never really is prepared or where he uses outdated,yellow- ed notes should go for about 25 per cent discount, or perhaps $16,75. A class taught by a teacher whose tests haven't been changed since he got his doctorate and are in wide cir- culation probably should go at about half price.

An unchallenging teacher could be rated on a sliding scale from about $8.50 to $15. taking into consideration the amount of class discussion, completeness of material, size of class and number of times jokes are repreated per se- mester. A professor who uses

or small groups has an atmos phere which is conducive to meditation and worship, Dr. Henry said.

Office space for the campus- wide Student Christian Associa- tion is also included in the chapel building.

Many of the materials used in the construction of the college chapel were formerly parts of the old sanctuary of the First Methodist Church of LaGrange.

Included in the materials are two colorful cathedral windows, the glass of which is said to have originally come from Bel- gium more than 100 years ago. The center panel in the window over the main entrance illus- trates the Biblical parable of "The Sower."

The panel in the window over the altar shows a torch of learning and the Bible. Many visitors find this appropriate because of the college's em- phasis on the relationship of learning and religion.

An organ and connected sound equipment, the gifts of the La- Grange Lions Club, will provide music in the chapel and to be broadcast across the campus from speakers in the cupola on the roof.

Music both inside and out- side the chapel can be played live on the organ or automati- cally from pre-recorded tapes.

Also located in the cupola is a brass bell which was formerly on one of the steam engines which traveled the Atlantic and West Point Rail- road.

President Henry said that three significant stones have been mounted in the building.

A stone from the Temple of Apollo at Corinth, Greece, is embedded in the north side of the chapel. The temple was erected in the twelfth century B.C., and Saint Paul preached there around 50 A.D., found- ing the church to which his Epis- tles to the Corinthians were ad-

dressed. The stone is a gift of Daniel

B. Mettee, a member of the LC class of 1964.

On the chapel's east side ia a stone from the Benedic- tine Monastery on the Iona Is- land of Scotland. Christian worship is said to have never ceas- ed there since 563 A.D., and the monastery dates back to the thirteenth century.

The Scottish stone is a gift of The Very Rev. George F. MacLeod, founder and leader of the Iona Community religious movement. He was a vis- iting lecturer on the LC campus in 1964.

A stone from Saint George's Chapel, Windsor, England, is in the north side of the building. Built in 1348, Saint George's Chapel ranks next to Westmin- ster Abbey as a royal mauso- leum and Henry IV, Edward IV, Henry VDJ and George VI are buried there.

SPORTS The Way NT

Jt M'See Them ^^ BY BILL ENGLAND

Spirts Editor

Practicing on a clay and high grass field, with a hole filled with dirt and an asphalt parking lot, LaGrange College shaped and formed it's first track team.

With those poor conditions, a limited amount of equipment, and work and desire on the part of fifteen men, LaGrange en- tered five meets, taking three second .and two fourth places.

When a team that has so lit. tie can do so much in such a short time, they and the man that got them together, Dr. Judson B. Harris, deserve a greatdeal of credit from us alL

Only so much praise can be given in a newspaper column, but students and administration can show much more by adding their congratulations, person- ally.

When a school of 500 can go against schools twice and some- times three times its size, and set four conference track records as the men of La- Grange have done, they do deserve a lot of credit.

Perhaps next year LaGrange will have more men on the track. With some good distance and field men, added to the present men, the Panthers can bring the Georgia Inter-collegiate Athletic Conference track tro- phy home from Berry.

But for this year, let us say thanks to the men who have showed L.C. desire and deter- mination to do the rough and almost impossible job of form- ing LaGrange's first track team and taking second place in the conference meet.

Netmen Beat Shorter LaGrange College closed out

its regular season tennis sch- edule last Thursday by handing Shorter College of Rome, Ga. their first conference loss, 5-4.

The Panthers took four ofthe singles and then took the decid- ing doubles match for the victory, when Glen Hunter and Bud- dy McTureous defeated Fred Rowell and Gary Garrett 6-2, 7-5.

Summary: LaGrange vs. Berry

Singles: 1. Barry Lee (S) def. Neal Mor- gan, 6-4, 6-4. 2. Jimmy Matthews (LC) def. Fred Rowell, 6-2, 6-2.

3. Glen Hunter (LC) def. Sid Blankenship, 6-2, 6-4. 4. Larry Shumake (LC) def. Gary Garettt, 5-7, 6-3, 6-4. 5. Bryant Johnson (S) def. Bud- dy McTureous, 4-6, 6-4, 6-4. 6. Billy Joe Hyatt (LC) def. Steve Shapire, 6-2, 6-3.

Doubles: 1. Lee and Johnson (S) def. Morgan and Matthews, 10-8, 6-0. 2. Hunter and McTureous (LC) def. Rowell and Garrett, 6-2, 7-5. 3. Bruce Bradley and Blanken- ship (S) def. Sammy Stewart and Shumake, 9-7, 6-3.

Track Team Number Two

LaGrange College's first track team broke three Geor- gia Intercollegiate Conference records and three school records at the conference track meet Saturday in Rome.

"The dirty dozen," Panthers were outmanned by host Berry College, but still came in a sur- prising second place in the four- team meet.

With a track squad of 26 men, Berry's overall balance paid off. TheVikings totaled 70 points for the championship.

The L.C. Cindermen gain- ed second with 40V2 point, while West Georgia marked up 35V2 for third and Shorter tallied 30

i. points for fourth. LaGrange captured five first

places, including all of the sprints.

The LC 440 Relay team start- ed the meet by taking first place in a record-tieing time of :44,8. Members of the team for La- Grange were Ed Stephens,Mike

Timmons, Jim Sirman and Charles Corbett.

Jim Sirman of Miami, Fla.. broke Troy Smith's old conference record of :52.1 in the 440 Yard Dash, by running a blazing :51.0, for LaGrange.

Charles Corbett from Fer- nandina Beach, Fla. also broke an old conference ircord in the 100 Yard Dash. The Panther's time was : 10.2, eclipsing the old time of: 10.3.

Other L.C. first places came as Larry Kinsman took the 220 Yard Dash in :22.8, and Mike Timmons swept the 880 in 2:08.5.

LaGrange had a second place in the 100 and the 220 by Ed Stephens, a second in the 880 by Robert Callaway, a third in the Pole Vault by Chuck Ni- xon, a third in the Mile Relay, and a third and fourth in the' Broad Jump by ChartesCorbett and Larry Kinsman, respective.

Valdosta Takes GIAC Tennis Championship

Buddy McTureous, the La- Grange College Panthers' num-

■ ber five player, made the only dent in Valdosta State's almost perfect sweep of the Georgia Intercollegiate Conference tennis tournament which ended here Saturday.

Coach Gary Colson's Rebels took the other five singles and all three doubles. More proof of their class was the fact that the Statesmen captured 16 of the 18 possbile points in their march toward the championship.

McTureous, a 5-10 junior from Umatilla, Fla., defeated Val Hallman of Berry, 10-6, for the number five singles championship.

Trailing the champions in the point column were defend- ing champion West Georgia, 4; Shorter and LaGrange, 3 each; and Berry, 1.

Valdosta State had not parti- cipated in regular season conference play because of the tra- vel distance involved. Instead the Rebels bad competed against some of the larger Florida colleges and universities, com- piling a 6-6 mark.
