President H a g e r ty S p e a k s ;
Expounds On F u tu re P la n sby Betty Ann Artinian
Dr. William W. Hagerty, P resident of Drexel for three months, presented his views and goals for Drexel and Its growing future Wednesday evening at a meeting sponsored by the student Society for the Advancement of Management, the Accounting Society and theStudent Marketing Society.
Where can Drexel go? What can Drexel do? "I am very sure that a need Is here for a great Institute of technology. But 1 feel Drexel must respond. This is folng to take a combined effort of

students, faculty, and adm inistration. There is a need for g reatness, we should never be satisfied »1th anything less than excellence,” said Dr. Hagerty.
Top School In Country
He is very confident that DIT tias the capability to be one of the future top schools of its kind in the country. Looking over the scholastic statistics of our student body our President note's that our present class of students will be in essential asset in our growing future. Primarily, however, he feels that the progress of a college or any school stems from Its faculty, capable instructors, not only well read on their subject, but with a definite in terest In teaching.
How will Drexel get and keep top Instructors? "By raising sa laries," says Dr. Hagerty "Drexel is fortunate In that the Instructors* performance Is much better than it is buying.”
Graduate Program Expaniion
Drexel has moved at a considerable pace in instituting a graduate program. Dr. Hagerty plans to expand tills system with the addition of a doctoral program and a research center. A science center acklltlon will facilitate one more step in Drexel's progress.

New Engineering Curriculum Approved
The recommendation for a twelfth term , which was first presented on November 5, was discussed at the last engineering faculty meeting held last Tuesday. The recommendation was approved with modification. The original proposal consisted of twelve term s of school and six term s of industry. The approved plan called for retaining the seventh term of industry.
Mr. Stewart B. Collins of the Co-op Department made a plea to retain seven Industry periods. In general, the faculty felt that the time In industry has great educational value and that it would not be a good idea to remove one term of Industry. This may imply that the twelfth term will be added in the summer of freshman year.
An engineering curriculum was also approved. The new curriculum would include physics courses in the firs t five term s. In addition, the social science and humanities courses would be moved from the freshman year to the upperclass curricula.
Although these plans are approved, they may prove to be impractical and, hence, would be modified.
Ground will be broken for th is new $1.5 million dollar building, Wednesday. The auditorium is the circular structure in left foreground of the picture. The location of the building will be the Southwest corner of 32nd and Market sts.

A ir s D A C G r i e v a n c e sA hastily called open forum to discuss the operations of the DAC
and the Program Board was conducted Tuesday afternoon. At the ■meeting, the operations of the DAC were explained and defended against the critic ism s of the sm all number of students in attendance.
The decision to hold the meeting was made the preceding evening. Advance publicity was limited to cards directed to select members of the student body. The m em bers of the Program Board, the Triangle and organization presidents received personal invitations to the meeting.
Before the meeting, Dean of Men, William E. Toombs stated, "Mr. Olson, Miss Cain and I hope to get a frank exchange of views. There are many misconceptions that should be cleared up; also other points of view concerning the operations of the DAC should l)e heard.”
Purpose Announced Harold B. Olson, D irector of the
DAC, announced that the purpose of the meeting was to answer Questions and to receive suggestions concerning both DAC and Program Board Activities. Bill Nelbert, President of the Program ward, together with Olson attempted to answer the questions.
Students Gus Kelly, Bernie McLaughlin, David Steinberg, and The Triangle asked most of the quest- ons. The others In attendance included Blanche Cain, Program Irector Dean Toombs and five
program board m em bers; there "'ere no other students present.
Program Board Explained Olson briefly described the
duties of the Program Board and 01 Miss Cain. “ Miss Cain is the sponsor of the Program Board,"
stated. "The program board 's Wrpose Is to sponsor program s wt students don’t have time for M that are In the students' in ter-

at the site, an Honor Guard Ceremonial will be held in the Great Court at 12:30 p.m. The ROTC Honor Guard and the ROTC Band, directed by Mr. Clyde S. Shlve, J r . , vtrlll perform at this time. Both students and faculty are invited to attend the ceremonial and the ground breaking.
Building Financed By GSA The plans for the building call
for a five-story, air-conditioned structure with 68,500 square feet of space. The construction is being financed by the General State Authority, The money for the project was authorized by the State Legislature of Pennsylvania. The land was made available with the a ssis tance of the Redevelopment of the City of Philadelphia. For approximately twenty-five years, the state will hold the title of the building, after which the title will revert to Drexel.
The building was designed by the firm of Baader, Young and Schultze. It will provide classrooms and other related non-spec- ialized Instructional areas for undergraduate and graduate students enrolled in the College of Business Administration, Engineering and Home Economics, and for the students of the Evening College and the Graduate School of Library Science.

Last Friday during the Homecoming skit, an unidentified person o r group dropped alargenum ber of obscene leaflets Into the crowd gathered in the Court. E arlie r in the week, several of the leaflets were placed in both the men’s and women’s mall boxes.
In aninterview withtheTriangle, Dean of Men William E. Toombs commented, “ This obscenity was obviously carried out by only a few people, but If offended and degraded many more. Student i r ritation at the tone of the skits has been high, but this action capped the clim ax."

rooms, the building provides for ten faculty offices, two lecture halls, each with a seating capacity of one hundred, and an auditorium which can seat three hundred persons. The structure will also house the main school store for the sale of books and classroom supplies.
Completion Date is 1965“ The building will probably be
completed by September 1964; but a more realistic estimate would be January, 1965,” said Vice- President Vogeler in an interview with the Triangle. Mr. Vogeler and Mr. Rudolph Bloom, J r ., Directo r of Publicity, also told the Triangle that Woodland Avenue would be used as a parking lot to replace the lot on which the new iNiildlng will be erected.

T o o m b s H a lts O pen Houses
R e q u e s ts R e -e v a lu a t io nBy Art LazonoH
Fraternity open houses will be discontinued as a result of the fraternities being unable to control the situation during this year’s Homecoming. According to the Dean of Men, William E. Toombs, *'There were far too manyunlden- tllied outsiders who were uncontrolled at the various houses.”
Dean Toombs feels that it is necessary to reexamine the fraternity structure. He announced his intentions to call' a meeting with the fraternity presidents to discuss their inability to control the open houses. The dean’s plans call for each house to answer a set of questions concerning fra te rnity affairs. Dean Toombs also wants meetings with an officer from each fraternity, an alumnus from each of the various fra te r nities’ alumni corporations, the fratern ities’ faculty advisors and a representative from the Dean of Men’s Office.
The purpose of the meeting would be to set long term goals for the fratern ities. Dean Toombs would like the goals to be se t before the winter te rm ’s rushing season sta rts .
The Drinking Problem
During an interview with the Triangle Dean Toombs emphasized the fact that the Institute’s main

With the introduction of this lighter, highly

Comet, Fairlane and Ford models, our engineers have taken still another step toward
putting extra pep per pound into Ford-built cars.
Simplified gear case design and a one-piece
aluminum casting result in a lighter, more
compact transm ission-one that has fewer
components and is extremely easy to maintain. Built to precision tolerances akin to those in
missile production, the new automatic transmission is truly a product of the space age,
and is typical of technical progress at Ford.

function is education. Since drink- ing was one of the more notice, able fraternity problems, Dean Toombs was asked what action would be taken along this line. Dean Toombs replied, "Drinking is a moral decision and a matter of choice, not of code.
“ The Institute is responsible for the atmosphere in which students entertain socially. The Institute should se t the example rather than exercise d irect control. The question is not so much whether a student drinks or not; rather it is where a student drinks and the consequences of his drinklne that m atter.”
Dean Toombs closed the interview with a general comment about Cratemities. He stated, "Frater- nlties tend to think of themselves as t)eing Independent of the Institute. In fact, they are not. The fratern ities are actually under the shelter of the school, but I should like to see a real equality between the fraternities and the schooL”

General Inferetf Progromt
Programs for the entire student body have received poor response in the past. Specifically, m lxer- dances have had poor attendance. Nelbert stated that the bands have not been well liked and that the people seemed to want twist and rock and roll music. “ P erhaps,” Nelbert suggested, “ students can't dance anything but the twist.” The budget has restric ted the hiring of bands, he explained. “ The past policy has been to use film and mixer combinations to fill in empty d a te s ," Nelbert stated.
The Fraternity Conflict
The fraternity bloc, which comprises one-eighth of the student body, composes a large percentage of the Interested students at Drex- el. Nelbert asserted, “ We try not to buck the fraternity parties. However, one of our largest attendances, 360, came at the same time as an open fraternity function was held last year.”
He noted that the problem of conflict with the dates of fraternity functions as the Playboy Party, Starlight Ball, open house and special events like Sammy Week Is considerable.
“ Our main problem Is the commuters,” he stated la ter. “ The problems of public transportation are often considered by the Program Board.”
Admission Now Charged
The Program Board was forced to charge admission to the movies and mixers because their budget was cut. It was stated that there is still a deficit of almost ten dollars per show despite the charge.
The budget, unlike most organizations, Is expandable and dependent on student attendance. Now, approximately seventy-five cents comes from each student to the Program Board from the $25 activities fee. The extra allowance would come from the $25 DAC fee which has not yet been tapped.
Big Attraction* Fail
Big name attractions do not draw Drexel students. The Program Board experimented last year when they hired the Four Preps and only 700 students attended the two shows. Thus, Nelbert indicated that the Program Board was trying to “ push for a higher degree of programs, not just.movies and dances. The
Program Board will wait for student response.”
Olson stated that the deficiencies In food services were the sole responsibility of James B. Earl. Also, he noted that any deficiencies found in the structure of the building before the end of this month would be taken care of by the Federal Government as part of their contract. These repairs would Include the prominent leaks found after last week’s downpour.
Bowlers Needed A discussion of the bowling alley
revealed that a seldom attained 60 per cent occupancy was needed to break even financially. “ We want more bowlers and we want to break even,” Olson said. Group discounts and other Incentives for bowling have been unsuccessful In the past, he noted.
Nelbert said, “ The Program Board is representative of the Interested students. There are 25 active members, of whom four

are girls (two commuters), four are fraternity members, and the rest are commuters. Six officers are commuters.” Toombs added, “ Students are free to enter. It is an open operating group and I don’t know why people don’t come In,”
Membership Open“ There Is an effort now to
publicize the open policy of membership,” Nelbert said. The recent ACU conference of 25 college unions was held to learn others’ Ideas, he noted.
It was pointed out that the program coordination has been poor In the past. In reference to schedule conflicts. Miss Cain, speaking for the Program Board, said that In the past, dates were changed. She continued, “ The DAC has sponsored 33 programs which have drawn 2500 students between September 25 and the end of October.”

Commenting on the student body the President feels we are fortunate In being a city school as we have no one type of student. He would like to see this cross- section even more pronounced In future student and faculty admissions. He feels that our curricula should be more flexible so to accommodate various types of students. “ A cross-section of individuals provides an education In Itself,” Dr. Hagerty said,

Excessive Statement
Hurts Researchers
Editor, Drexel Triangle:
In last week's Triangle, Nick Salamon stated and I quote “ The school cafe is not a bad place to spend your days. Ask the student researchers .”
This is quite a generalization. If Mr. Salamon knows some researchers on a particular project, that take such excessive liberties, let him name them rather than get a large number of innocent people in trouble.
Yours truly, Mark E. Sandberg
Mishap Accumulation
Spoiled Homecoming
Editor, Drexel Triangle:
The Hootenanny promised to be one of the main attractions of the Homecoming Weekend, but an accumulation of mishaps spoiled it for all concerned.
In the firs t place, the Triangle announced that four groups would perform, tMit only three appeared Friday evening.
Then there were technical difficulties that should have been worked out before the show was presented, notably the lighting. It was very distracting to s te the lights in the Grand Hall a lte r nately turned on and off.
The audience was extremely ill- mannered. An informal gathering such as a hootenanny does not grant the members of the audience the privilege of talking during the performance or of leaving In the middle of a number. Moreover, vocal disapproval of one of the perform ers was a mark of extreme Immaturity that should not characterize an audience composed of college students.
I am sure that many Drexel students would appreciate another hootenanny, provided that It Is better planned.

Armistice Between
B & G and StudentsEditor, Drexel Triangle:
During the past week we celebrated Armistice Day commemorating the cease-fire of World War I. Now, i think It Is about time to call a tnj’ce In the battle between the Drexel students and the buildings and grounds.
Faculty and Staff and Students alike were dismayed at the destruction that took place In the Great Court at exactly 10:15 on Saturday, November 9. With parents and alumni expected tor various coffee hours, tours, and just general homecoming, the Drexel janitors thoughtlessly destroyed the posters and displays decorating the Court for the biggest social event of the season. In response to our protests and pleadings to wait just until noon, the janitors simply replied that they had orders to take them down now and there was nothing we could do. So, the parents and alumni were greeted by a bare but clean court. That's all right, though. T here 's a great picture In last week’s Triangle. I t 's a shame It is not In color. The time has come for a showdown. A few weeks ago, Mr. Martin asked our cooperation In the smoking problem. Now, we are asking Buildings and Grounds cooperation. The school Is big enough for txjth of us.

one of the three plays currently offered by the National Repertory Theatre is Arthur M iller’s “ The C rucible." This scathing analysis of the Salem Witch T ria ls is sure to bring to mind the McCarthy Trials of the '50 's that almost cost Miller his career. Aside from the popular appeal of this fascinating, frightening play is the profound meaning, the continual persecution by man of man brought about through superstition and fear, which makes this play a must for thinking college students.
Jap a n e se Import“Ikiru” (“ To Live” ), a much-praised Japanese picture about
the last months of an insignificant working man, is currently being shown at the Wayne Avenue Playhouse. This poignant story of the nature of man was directed by the famous Akira Kurosawa and features one of the finest actors in the world In Takashi Shimura, not to mention a fine background score. Discounts are available at the box office to college students with a matriculation card every night, except Saturday.
Different American Comedy An ex-Gl Is traveling across the desert and Is “ conned” by
several German Nuns relocated in the Southwest into building their church for them. Does this sound like the basis for a comedy? Not really. But it has been made Into one of the most tender and moving comedies ever to come out of Hollywood. But even Hollywood doubted that the story had potential, and allocated only $250,000 for the movie.
Despite Hollywood, the picture was made and it has become this year’s " s leep er” just like “ David and Lisa” did last year. The film is “ Lilies in the Field” starring Sidney Poltier in his best portrayal yet, and is currently at the Midtown Theater.
Imported From Britain Some of America’s finest entertainment comes from London.
Many plays in the past years have been adopted by U.S. audiences among them “ Stop the W orld...” , “ Oliver” , “ A Man for all Seasons” , “ Beyond the Fringe” (which Is coming here next month), and this year’s “ Luther” and “ Chips with Everything.” NBC has followed the current trend and has “ borrowed” Britain’s most popular TV show-“ That was the Week that was.” Last Sunday night NBC ran a sneak preview of tills satirical show that will be a weekly entry next year. The results were devastatingly funny. TW’3, as it is called by intimates, shatters all precedents and holds nothing sacred. It sa tirizes everything from politics (especially politics) to pornographic lite ra tu re with what Is usually good taste. It will be a major breakthrough when this program comes on weekly next year. Can you imagine what It will do to all of those campaign speeches?

The proposed stadium to be built at 29th and Arch Sts. poses a threat to all who Inhabit, work, and study In this area of the city; you, the students of Drexel, are no exceptions. The entire educational community for that m atter has a large stake in this now-raging controversy.
Picture the consequence of this glorious stadium. Summer term will become the true epitome of chaos. If you think you have trouble parking now, just wait until you have to contend with the crowd scuffling off to a Phillies home game. Night or day, the problem of hawkers, vendors, vandals, and garbage will be upon us. Hubcap loss will increase by 500%. Of course, you’re In luck if you’d like a bag of peanuts for lunch someday, but otherwise you have little to gain from having what little privacy you have now completely lost.
Perhaps this Is more a problem for our school administrators, for they will be here long after we have departed. Nonetheless, the students of today are the alumni of tomorrow; we all have a stake in seeing Drexel reaching the height of educational prowess. The new alignment of curricula Is the firs t big step. The next has to be the prevention of this neighborhood choke-off.
« « « « * * *Commuter students may not realize how bad the trafllc can get
around here If they have never been In the area on a Sunday afternoon during an Eagles home game. As a visual aid, just picture the proverbial sardlne-can.
This is a problem for all: Drexel students (especially those who ‘study’ in the area), Penn students, employees, and residents. You can do your part by addressing an Individual or group protest to the Mayor, your City Councilman, o r any other elected “ servant of the people” who might depend on your vote. The time for action is now.
The i-un tor the roses In the Republican Party now stands as follows: Gov. Rockefeller O^Y) has declared himself early in a valiant, if vain, attempt to give the GOP a positive platform, rather than the present, m ore popular, negative approach of “ It-should- have-been-done-dlfferent” . Richard M. Nixon (Cal-NY) Is absolutelydedicated to the “ i-refuse-to-lose-tw lce-in-a-row ” club, otherwise known as the “ Remember Adlal” society, Barry Goldwater, most suiprisingly. Is taking a middle-of-the-road position, refusing to declare in or out. At this point, he still is waiting to see if Ken- nedy fares well for all his daring programs of late. He will not

It may seem to you that the recent “ demands” of Cecil Moore, PWxy of the NAACP, are a Uttle out of Une, or arrogant. If you 6X4mlne the circumstances, however, you’d find that his premise Is correct; Tate did get an overwhelming majority from the Negro comiuuiUty, Moore's ^'demands'* are not a bribe or Insistence
tlie payoff for some secre t deal btd given* Moore Is simply 'voicing for the Negro the m oral obligation that Is on Tate 's shoulders, in the same Impatient tone that all Negroes would probably have used.

We are wrong In assuming that some men are religious and some are not. In reality all men are religious. The crux of the issue, then, Is not whether we have a religious belief or not, but rather, what Is the nature of that beUef,
Religion As Devotion to Idols When one who worships directs
h is/her devotion to an object, Idea o r being which Is not worthy of such devotion, the religion of that person is directed to an idol. Worship of Idols can never satisfy the spiritual needs of a person. To worship something is to regard that something as the most important thing in one’s life, Paul Tillich calls this devotion, “ one’s ultimate concern.” Such “ concerns” are not difficult to point out.
Week At BestTo live a self centered life Is
among our shortcomings. It Is all too easy to depend on ourselves too much. To realize one’s own ability and potential is one thing, but it is another to realize one’s own limitations. At our very best we are still very weak.
It is just as bad to hold another person up as one worthy of praise. Too often we single out religious, political or other leaders In this way. And yet, they too, are but human beings. We can and should be inspired by their virtues, but these end far short of perfection.
Use Of PowerSuch devotion need not be direct
ed toward a person. Position and power are more subtle focal points of false religion. All of us have at least some power at our disposal. How we use that power Is very Important. We can use It for putting ourselves ahead or we can use It for the betterment of the position of those about us. To seek power and position for self aggrandizement destroys the person Involved rather than lifting that person to a higher realization of his true potential.
It almost goes without saying that a life devoted to m aterial Is a hollow life. Material Is to be used. It can not be the object of devotion and love for love cannot exist In a vacuum, but needs to be communicated between two or more rational beings.
IReligion As Devotion to God It is important that homage be
paid God and not one of the aforementioned gods. To worship God is to worship one who ever seeks to love, to show mercy, to be righteous and just.
To devote one’s self to following this God is to give one’s self to following patterns of living that are absolute. Here is a frame of reference by which we are able to measure our actions. We find that here Is direction for life. We can test our actions against what we know of God and if necessary to ever seek to try to change our lives so that they are more In accord with His way
To worship God and to ever honestly try to pattern our lives after Him gives us a realistic understanding of nature and of the place of man. Through such worship we come to better understand ourselves and we come to have a healthy concern for the seeking of what is best, l)oth for ourselves and for our fellowmen about us.
Varsity Singers Fall Term Tour
The Drexel Varsity Singers will be in the Baltimore, Md. area next Monday and Tuesday on their annual Fall tour. During the two days they will sing in assemblies at five different high schools and will appear on WJZ-TV, Monday evening. The thirty-eight students will be overnight guests of Drexel alumni.
Among the schools to be visited are Baltimore Polytechnic Institute, Baltimore City College, and schools in Sudbrook, Woodlawn and Glen Burnle. The program Is varied; it runs from classical mucis to popular music. Typical selections are “ Break Forth, O Beauteous Heavenly Light” - J.S, Bach, “ Stouthearted Men” - Sigmund Romberg, and Selections from “ My F a ir Lady” - Frederick Lowe.
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN
Through The Looking Glass----------- -------------------------------------------------------------------- - By George Nice
The future Drexel student will not have much In common with the Drexel student of today. The retirement of Dr. Creese and the coming of Dr. Hagerty Is the Impetus of the movement which will transform Drexel.
Without Research, Nothing
Some time ago, I titled a column “ Without Research, Nothing.”I would like to re-emphaslze that. It Is reassuring to see that Dr. Hagerty agrees with this philosophy. If Drexel Is to receive the respect that Is due the largest private engineering school, the Institute Is going to have to produce.
The best way to achieve this goal Is not prim arily by the addition of research and teaching facilities, such as the present building program would have us believe. Building Is Important, but not as Important as having adequate personnel to do the teaching and research. It Is good that faculty sa laries are to be Increased on a m erit basis. The foundation of a good school lies In the competence of the faculty and the attitude of the administration.
Curriculum Change
In last week’s TRIANGLE It was reported that the engineering school was considering a twelve term curriculum. This Is good if the present Industry schedule Is maintained with the extra term occurring In the senior year, and If the present curriculum Is updated and sophisticated. A better planned curriculum will help to interest qualified students. This Is another key to Drexel’s problem.
A school is only as good as the produce which it produces. Although research and top professors will enhance the graduate work, the undergraduate curriculum must not be allowed to suffer.
High School Relations
An attempt sponsored by the Student Senate and the Admissions Office is being made to in terest more and better students in the type of education offered at Drexel. It is a program of personal solicitation by upperclassmen from all of the Institute’s colleges. Drexel must become something else besides a mere name to the high school students In the area. Drexel must be given a personality.
This term these upperclassmen will attend a luncheon given by Drexel for 150 National Merit Scholarship finalists in the area. And later in succeeding term s, teams will visit various high schools and try to answer any of the students’ questions regarding college. Any interested student in school or in industry may contact me for more Information in Room 170 of the Main Building.
P o in t Of O rder
Fraternity LeadershipBy Arthur S. LazanoH
The fraternities at Drexel generally try to demonstrate to the rest of the student body that their brothers are the leaders of the various activities on campus. It cannot be denied that percentagewise the fraternities outnumber Independents In campus organizations. The question Is - what kind of leadership are the fraternities giving to the rest of Drexel?
This year’s Homecoming brought out several flaws in the f ra te r nity system and its leadership. F irs t, fraternity skits are more and more showing a lack of originality, vitality, and maturity of taste In attempts to secure more laughs from those In the court. Second, the fratern ities have not exercised the type of control necessary to preserve the decorum at their own open house parties.
This last weekend enough of a disturbance occurred to give Dean Toombs sufficient reason to stop fraternity open house parties which are “ open” to anyone who walks In the door. Dean Toombs has announced that he wants the entire fraternity system reevaluated before the 1964 rushing season sta rts .
Fraternity skits and open houses are but two of the flaws that are most prominent at this time. The fratern ities now have the chance, before another explosion such as the Theta Chi affair occurs, to make some concrete Improvements. If the fraternities can prove true leadership In their own affairs, then they deserve a place on the Drexel campus. If they cannot, then they do not belong at Drexel nor should they be the leaders of the other campus organizations.
Over A Cup Of Coffee
V o l u n t a r y C o - o pBy Philip L. Zwick
One of the foremost institutions at Drexel for the past forty- five years has been the cooperative program of education. Up until six or seven years ago, entering engineering students had the option of choosing between a five-year co-op program or a standard four- year course.
Of course, we all know that the co-op plan Is now compulsory. But It Is a pleasant surprise to find out that the program Is not so solidly entrenched that It cannot be removed. No less an authority than Drexel’s new president, Dr. William Hagerty has stated tlils.
Dr. Hagerty noted that he has obtained the authority from the Board of T rustees to completely remove the cooperative system from Drexel If he so desires . Such planning shows that the co-op department will be under careful scrutiny in the near future, and well It should be.
Proponents of the co-op system talk mainly about the value of the experience that can be gained during the Industrial assignments and tend to minimize the economic rewards. Participants in the program place the emphasis in the reverse order, for in actual practice industrial experience often means a trivial job that could just as easily be handled by the man in the street.
Many upperclass students have noticed that almost all big companies Include the job classification of “ summer student employee” in their recruiting advertisements. Invariably, these jobs are not only technically Interesting, but also financially more rewarding than those of co-op’s working for the same firm . Moreover, these students receive their degrees one year before the Dcaxel engineer.
If Drexel intends to advance towards having a separate graduate school of engineering, they must also have a four-year undergraduate curriculum. The extra year necessary to obtain a bachelor’s degree under the co-op program acts as a deterrent to graduate study. Once again, Drexel should offer engineering students the option of choosing their program of education, especially if It hopes to entice a large percentage of Its graduate students from the undergraduate school. These students can get needed Industrial experience during sum m er jobs. We hope Dr. Hagerty considers this well.

W I P A i r s B i o m e d i c a l P r o g r a mDr. Melvin W. Thorner, head
of the graduate program in biomedical engineering, will chair a panel discussion on the radio station WIP, Sunday evening, November 17, from 10:05 to 10:30 p.m.
Appearing with him will be Dr. Jam es A. Richards J r . , (physics), Mr. Ronald Tallarida (mathematics), and students Jam es Townsend and Dr. Grace Fisher.
The Informal panel was taped last Tuesday at the WIP studios. The general topic of the d isc u * Sion concerns the m erits of the program in biomedical engineering. Drexel’s program, established in 1959, is the second oldest in the country and its graduates constitute the majority of graduates in this country to date in biomedical engineering.

Sunday afternoon the Band and the ROTC Cadre engaged in battle! at 43 rd and Powelton. The oc. casion was the firs t annual Band vs. Cadre Homecoming Football Game.
The Cadre received the klckoff but were unable to make a first down and were forced to punt. Several plays la te r the Band scored on a sideline pass from Joe Yust to Bob Guggenheim who went across for the T-D. A conversion attempt failed leaving the score at 6- 0.
Guggenheim Stars
Later in the firs t quarter, the Cadre, again unable to move, punt- ed out of a fourth down. Gug. genheim picked up the ball and carried it for a 65 yeard touchdown run.
In the second quarter Guggen- heim went over for the third touch-- down on a flare pass from Yust. The score at the half 18-0.
During halftime, the elevenband ¥4 members put on the usual halftime A show. I
Triple Reverse Fails f;]
In the third quarter a triple reverse attempt on a fourth down was stopped by the Cadre giving! them a firs t down with goal to go i on the band 4 yd. line. Three downs later, they were still oni the 4 yd. line. Finally, the puny Cadre, in desperation managed a pass from Hodges to Rodgers for their lone touchdown.
The fourth quarter was score- less; leaving the final score at 18-6. The Cadre was so chagrined at the loss that they don’t want to wait until next year for a second game, but have challenged' the Band to another game this 1 term . <

to keep or cancel a program were made, Miss Cain, said, “ I can't make a decision until the Program Board meets and they decide what they want to do ." However, the question, " Is the Program Board's job to supplement o r to make programs for the students?" was left unanswered.
At the conclusion of the meeting Olson commented, “ I think that the Triangle and the students should give the Program Board nothing but congratulations rather than the constant abuse which has seemed to have taken prefe rence ."

Beat Western Maryland
by Bob Proud
IF action last Sunday on a slippery turf was marked by four shutouts as Tau Epsilon Phi and Tau Kappa Epsilon continued to pace their respective divisions.
In three intra-league battles, TKE whitewashed PKP, 13-0, TEP scored a 13-6 triumph over rival SAM, and DSP thumped LCA, 32-0.
APL blanked cellar-dweller DKR in a Gold League contest, 24-0. In the remaining game, SP whipped Delta Iota In an exhibition game, 14-0.
On the other hand, Sigma Alpha Mu's excellent passer, BobKolber, frequently threw key passes that were dropped by his receivers, SAM scored Its lone tally in the second quarter.
DSP 32 - LCA 0
In their final regular season game, DSP surprised a punch- less LCA six with twenty-six firs t half points.
In all, DSP scored five tim es. In the opening half, Dronfleld crossed the goal line on a riin and then on a return of an interception. End Bob Weindorfer caught a pass for another score and finally Ber- nle Thamarus turned a pass interception Into a DSP slx-polnter.
In the final quarter, center Dan Sandman moved to an end position. He scored his firs t touchdown In four years to complete the DSP scoring. John Mllnlchuck and Ed Herter turned In good overall games.
LCA never could put Its offense Into gear. They picked up only
TKE 13 - PKP 0
Defense and ball control were the outstanding features of this game. The winners made nine interceptions of PKP aerials, as Ralph Scola and Je rry Whiteman snared five and four respectively.
Teke scored twice In the firs t half. Quarterback Rich Chapman fired TD passes to end Ben Crawford In the first quarter and to Bob MoUuro in the second.
A determined PKP defense tightened to slow the Tekes offense in the second half. However, PKP's failure to mount an offense told the story of the game for the Showmen. PKP players deserving mention in the game were end Bud Albright, halfback Jim Boomer- shlne, defensive end Rich Husted and defensive back Greg O’Hara.
TKE remains unscored upon In four league games to date.
TEP 13 - SAM 6
After scoring In the firs t and third periods, an Inspired TEP team held on during the final period against a threatening Sam- mie passing attack to win.
TEP passer AlGelman’s running and passing highlighted the game. Gelman utilized good blocking to parlay the TEP ground game with two scoring passes to end Tony Maftel. Defensively, Gelman and Bob Bass contributed timely Interceptions to blunt Sammle drives.

The final APL touchdown came about in the final quarter when end A1 ConsoM grabbed a deflected pass in the end zone. The Apples’ defense was marked by two Interceptions.
DKR was unable to move on the offense. Offensive end Den Plontek and defensive lineman Clay Molnar provided DKR with hustling efforts.
SP 14 - D l 0
A muddy turf hindered both of the offenses In this one. Both units displayed good spirit and determination.
Sigma Pi struck for a TD In the firs t quarter when Chuck De- Stefano threw to Joe Brown for a tally. In the following quarter, Dave Slawlk scampered all the way for the final SP score.
Fine defensive play by SP defensive linemen Fred Staab and Jim Gruver featured a defensive game. Further, SP offensive halfback, Byron Biggs, contributed much to the sp irit of the winners.
Delta Iota end Tom Smith played well for the losers .

Yonkermen Triumph Over Hofstra, 11-0; Knock Off WM, 4-1
by Dave Helms
Drexel's soccer Dragons rolled over Hofstra University, 11-0, on Saturday to s ta rt Homecoming o f with a bang; and dropped a scrapping Western Maryland team in two home MAC contests. These two wins give DIT a respectable 7-2 record with two games to go. The defense now has five shutouts in the books and the offense has tallied 34 goals to the opponents’ six.
Hofsfro No ContestThe fiasco on Saturday was
really no contest from the outset with Will Gabel netting two quick goals in the first quarter. When Will took a rest in the second quarter, his replacement, Pete Musonge, did equally well by scoring a pair of goals to make it 4-0 at the half.
Opening the third quarter it was Pete Musonge again, completing his “ hat trick” of 3 goals, making it 5-0 Drexel. Then Jose Celis got into the act to make it 6-0 at the end of three quarters. As the fourth quarter started, Hofstra moved Bruce Bauer, their key man, to the center forward slot in an attempt to boost scoring power. Then the Dutchmen’s defense came apart at the seams with Celis getting his second and Walt Hader- mann and Will Gabel each adding two to make the tally a ridiculous 11-0. This gave Will “ The Hat” Gabel a “ hat trick plus one” and preserved his nickname for posterity.
Mild TerrorsOn Tuesday the Green T erro rs
of Western Maryland turned out to be not so terrib le after all. Starting fast and in control all the way, Drexel broke the ice with Will Gabel fast-breaking, faking the goalie, and scoring. Gene “ The Greek” Calaphatis scored his firs t of the season as he netted a beautiful cross from Don Grab- ner on a daring head shot. Pete Musonge came through again, footing a loose ball into the cords to make it 3-0, Drexel. Western Maryland then hit for their lone tally as Joe Wederoth looped the ball over the defense on a rather whacky play from an indirect free kick situation. Drexel came right back with Ron Pantuck coming out of his scoring “ slump” to make it 4-1 at the final whistle.

Temple the Southern Division. Both Swarthmore and Temple are undefeated in the MAC, each having a tie and neither having played any tough teams all season. At any rate, Elizabethtown should do a job on whoever wins the Southern Division. Drexel, with a 5-2 MAC record, is all but eliminated from title play, but will still sport an im pressive record at season's end.

Gridders Need Victory To Keep League Crown
by Tom White
The schedule reads seven down and two to go. Western Maryland and Dickinson, both league foes, a re must games for the Dragons. Last week Western Maryland scored two firs t half TD»s to top Dickinson 12-0.
Western Maryland shares last year 's MAC Southern Division Crown with the Dragons and will be trying to gain sole possession of this title. The Green T erro rs have compiled a 5-1-1 overall record while maintaining a 3-0 league record. Drexel sports a 3-1 conference record and must win this one to stay in contention for league honors. The Dragons also face Dickinson (4-2 in league competition) while Western Maryland meets a weak Johns Hopkins eleven the following week.
The Dragon offense will have

to be at its best against the Green T e rro rs who have given up only six TDs this season and who have shutout Drexel In their last three meetings. Coach Tom Grebls'boys will also be out to snuff four straight losses dealt Drexel by Western Maryland.
Western Maryland will be paced by senior quarterback Tory Confe r and sophomore fullback Rich White. Confer was instrumental In last y ear 's 8-0 win and scored the lone touchdown. Newcomer Rich White is the club's outstanding ball ca rr ie r. He is averaging seven yards per carry and leading the MAC Southern Division In ground gaining.
Wounds HeoledThe Dragons ejqiect to have
everyone healthy for tomorrow's game. Injuries to halfback Rich Thatcher and fullback Chick Cec- carelli seem to be completely healed as evidenced by their fine performance in last week's game. Rich picked up 46 yds. while Chick gained 43. Skip Lombardi and Ed Bogdan should also be available for action. The only question mark is senior fullback Harry Purnell who is still nursing an injury that forced him to the sidelines three weeks ago.
Seniors Joel Gotchel and John Schlichtig have been voted co- captains for the second straight week.
by Tom WhiteDIT gridders posted their first
shutout of the campaign by dropping King's College 16-0 in this year’s Homecoming game. Strong defensive play and Drexel’s super, ior kicking game kept the ball in King's te rrito ry most of the second half.
Slow First HalfMost of the Drexel-King’s f irs t
half was a defensive battle with the teams marching bet^veen the 30 yd. lines. Halfback Bob Adams and fuUback Dick Dali did most of the ball carrying for the Mon- archs, while halfback John Schlichtig and fullback Chick Ceccarelll toted the pigskin for the Dragons,
Until the last 1:30 of the haU the only attempt at a score was a field goal by Irv Campl)ell from the 30 yd. line that was off to the left. A penalty following a fourth down kick gave the host team a firs t down on the King’s 45. With 1:06 remaining an interception put the Monarchs in control on the 30 yd. line, but an offensive interference penalty put the ball back on the 15 and set up a kicking situation.
Compbell 's Toe HitsDrexel got the ball on the King’s
42 yd. line with 9 seconds left. Quarterback F ran Crovettl threw a flat pass to halfback John Schll- chtlg who rambled to the fifteen before being knocked out of bounds. There was no time left on the socre board, but the official’s
score board, but the official's watch had 2 seconds to go as Irv Campt>ell booted a 25 yard field goal giving the Dragons a 3-0 halftime lead.
A fumble of the second half kickoff (King's recovered their own fumble) precluded the type of defense the Dragons would display throughout the remainder of the game—tight, aggressive, and hard hitting.
Mankin RumblesDrexel got its firs t big break
the second time the Monarchs got the ball In the second half. Senior tackle Don Mankin, making his last appearance as a player at Drexel Field, picked a fumble out of the a ir at the King’s 49 and loped to the 13 yard line t>efore being hauled down. Following runs by Rich Thatcher and Dave Leahy, quarterback Crovettl flipped a six yard pass to Leahy in the left flat for the score. A Campbell conversion gave Drexel a 10-0 lead.
With D rexel's defensive line doing such a fine job of containing the Monarch ground attack, the v isitors were forced to revert to the long pass to play catch-up ball. This was to cost them in the fourth period.
Farrell Steals BallThe Dragon’s last score came
following an Interception by end- halfback Chuck F a rre ll. This gave DIT a firs t down in enemy te r r i tory on the 33. Rich Thatcher carried all the way to the nine yard line, and from there Bruno
