Associations Work For Better Physics In High Schools

College students preparing to teach high school physics may soon be affected by a program to im- prove the quality of high school physics teaching. The program has been launched jointly by the Amer- ican Association of Physics Teach- ers and the American Institute of Physics and has been initiated by the creation of a Regional Coun- selor Program in Physics.

College professors and physicists in industry and government, who are interested in promoting local cooperation for better physics teaching, have, been appointed in 40 states and Puerto Rico.

According to the American In- stitute of Physics, by the end of the 1961-62 academic'year it is ex- pected that 50 counselors will be working to achieve the goals of the program, and next year this number will be doubled by the ad- dition of more counselors in the larger and more populous states.

Two Madison College, Friday, October 27,1961

Lei's Discuss May Day For several years, Madison College has held an annual fes-

tival to celebrate the coming of spring. The festival, more com- monly known as the May Day Pageant, has been, for practical- ly as many years as its existence, the center of controversy. For some, the pageant is a scene of embarrassment since it repre- sents something they themselves participated in when they were young children. Others feel.that it is an unprofessional event that shows the juvenile behavior of hundreds of Madison Col- lege students. Some people are critical of the whole program while others criticize only one part of the program.

Fpr other people, the May Day festival represents weeks of hard, unappreciated work that results in a day of bustling beauty and fun. This day, to them, represents honor in the form of the May court, beauty in the form of the dance, and festivity in all forms of the program.

Every year arguments arise over the question, "Shall we have a May Day, and if so, of what shall the program consist?" Before an answer is decided, the May Day program is well on its way in its planning stage, or, even in some cases, is already over. Professors, students'and teachers rage that they were not given the chance to air their opinions or count their vote among the opinion-makers. This year, why not discuss, sug- gest, and maybe even vote on this before the planners begin to plan or the events take place? This simple action would save time, money, energy, and feelings.

Must We Post Guards? A few years ago, a bookstore was established on the Madi-

son campus for the benefit of the student body. Here, under the honor system, a variety of novels, plays; and so on, is of- fered at regular prices. The bookstore has proven itself to be an invaluable asset to. the students who need an immediate sirppry of good iltc.-^.c- -**" :i~!S^**»^

At the same time, the bookstore seems to have put an un- bearable strain on the honor of some of the students. This fact has been evident for some time. Looking at some figures for the past week alone we find that one day 387 books were placed on the shelves. Twenty-four hours later, 268 books were left. By Monday, there were 195 books in the store.

Mathematically speaking, there should have been an intake of $96.00. However, only $50.00 was placed in the cash box. Surely college students should be able to do better than this. Some students have a bad habit of "borrowing" the books, reading and returning them. Others take books and pay for them later. This in itself is a poor policy, but it still doesn't account for all the missing money.

Although the accusation is rather strong, we can assume that some students are just stealing (nasty word) the books. Is the presence of the bookstore putting too much of a strain on the honor of Madison College students? If this js the case, those in charge of the store will have to regress as far as we have by taking the bookstore out of the post office lobby or by posting armed guards every ten paces.

—The Editor

Students Suggest Breeze Changes

October 20, 1961 Dear Editor:

We feel fortunate in having a school newspaper and a qualified staff. However, we are of the opinion that THE BREEZE does not properly reflect student inter- est but, instead, tends to emphasize news not pertinent to the purpose of a school paper.

We would like to offer the fol- lowing suggestions which we be- lieve might help create better stu- dent response to our paper.

1. More student news-articles on outstanding students to be selected by THE BREEZE staff each week; campus and dorm incidents; announcements of student engage- ments, pinnings, and marriages.

2. Articles by students or faculty on functions at which they repre- sent Madison College, such as Har- vest Bowl, THE BLUESTONE trip to Miami, and unique student vacation trips.

3. More emphasis on student as- semblies and productions. For ex- ample, we should like to have seen a larger spread on the upcoming men students' minstrel.

4. Consolidation of club and church news.

5. Encouragement of "Letters to the Editor" on controversial sub- jects.

6. Inclusion of a poetry and book review section.

7. More coverage of W.A.A. in^ tramural and extramural program.

8. Encourage professors to con- tribute their ideas, and interesting writings of students based on con- tent more than on composition.

9. Biographical sketches of pres- ent faculty, administration, and staff.

10. A definite release date for THE BREEZE.

We would like to commend the staff on its encouragement of car- toons, and the columns on men's sports activities and those express- ing the opinion of the male student of Madison, although we do not always agree with them.

THE BREEZE should be a rec- ord of student activities; therefore, we submit these suggestions for your consideration. _^ Sincerely,

Anne Barber Judy Scott

Don't Be Afraid; It's Your Roomie

by Sally Chaos

Happy Halloween to you too\ Boo Boo! Just in case you didn't realize it, this very next Tuesday is Halloween. Even though Madi- son is relatively shut off from, the outside world, we do* celebrate that wonderful tradition of uninhibited on the 31st day of October, mas- querading, unsuspected trickery,, and dutiful treating.

Don't let all the unfamiliar mon- sters and hamnty looking appari- tions scare you on this night. Chances are that those "things" are your very own • dorrmrrates.

And even if it doesn't turn out to be your roomie or hallmate, it \s-

still probably someone yon know

or once knew. Since the administration frowns

upon hanging undies from the flag pole, sawing porch posts in two, and adding draperies to Wilson tower,' these tricks are usually avoided; however, there are still various and sundry crafty little tricks which remain to he done. If you should happen to make a wee mistake and perform some frowned upon deed, believe me, you will be dutifully treated.

A special treat for those Madi- son students who are so fortunate as to be able to eat in our over crowded dining halls is "Serve Yourself Night." On Halloween night "riot" and "chaos" are the best descriptive adjectives for this annual free-for-all.

So if you run into masqueraders, tricks, and treats and are enmeshed in the Hallowcn whirl until you have a headache; don't fret, don't sweat, it'll all be over in 24 hours. o

Editor Answers Student Criticism

We, too, feel fortunate in having a school newspaper and a qualified staff. And we are of the opinion that The Breeze not only reflects student interest but emphasizes news of a nature that should ap- peal to any inquisitive college stu- dent.

We would like to offer the fol- lowing comments to clear up points raised in the above letter.

1. Despite the fact that the list- ing of names of students for en- gagements, and so on lacks jour- nalistic finesse, the staff does in- tend to record these moments of achievement in an issue after the Christmas engagement "rush".

Feature articles on students and faculty are written to be timely, (i.e. Whenever a particular achieve- ment can be cited.)

2. Follow-up stories on various events are printed if featurable ma- terial is involved, (i.e. It .would be useless to write another Harvest Festival story [we had three ar- ticles on this year's festival] that just quotes the participant as hav- ing had a "good time".)

Note this week's article on the Miami ACP convention. Both the Bluestone and The Breeze will participate. The information gleaned at this convention will be technical and useful to the staffs but of little news value to the student body. Now, if their plane gets hijacked ...

3. We, too, would like to have had a larger spread on the men's

Assistant 4H Agent To Show Slides Of Life In Panama

Dave Scott, assistant 4H agent for Page County, will speak and present slides on the "Traditions, Customs and Everyday Life of a Native of Panama," for assembly on November 1. . The 4H Alumni Club of Madi- son College will sponsor the as- sembly.

Dave, a member of the 4H All- Star Chapter, an honorary organi- zation for outstanding 4H mem- bers, is a resident of Charlottes- ville, Virginia. He was graduated from Albemarle High School and Virginia Polytechnical Institute. In 1959 through the International Farm Youth program, he was an exchange delegate to Panama.

IFY is a part of the People to People program established by President Eisenhower. Delegates to foreign countries are sponsored by counties in the states to the country of the student's choice. The program also enables foreign students to come to the United States.

Officers of the newly organized 4H club at Madison are Ann Ren- alds, president; Carolyn Wilkin- son, vice-president; Jane Mistr, secretary-treasurer, and J o a n n Clark, reporter. o

Two To Attend Trade Conference

Nancy J. Lightner and Anita Hobbs, officers of Beta Nu Chap- ter, Pi Omega Pi, national honor- ary business fraternity, will be at- tending the Thirteenth Annual Vir- ginia World Trade Conference which is to be held at the Hotel Chamberlin, Old Point Comfort, on October 26-27, 1961.

They will be representing the College and the fraternity.

Mr. William Walsh, Beta Nu Sponsor, will also be attending.

The Free Lance by David Blevins

For the economically minded Madison male, many opportunities afford themselves for penny-pinch^' ing. Your friend and mine, Tom Ellison, suggests selecting ones' weekly date from the list of the Breeze's free theater pass holders. So girls, do check the list this week, Tom may be calling youl

Why put out good money for dance weekends when, with all the daily jam sessions adjacent the M-ens' Day Room, all you need do is sneak your girl past janitors and administrative-types for a rocking good time in a practice room? In addition to these helpful sugges- tions, why not 'tend like you're not a member of your class and there- by avoid nasty dues paying?

The Frat and the YMCA pre- sented a minstrel this year exhibit- ing all kinds of talent. I hope this becomes an annual occurrence tending toward more male partici- pation in school affairs.

The upcoming play, "Skin of our Teeth", should be one of the most enjoyable ever to grace Wil- son's antique stage. If you are a lover of comedy with an inner meaning, do try and make the opening curtain. An excellent cast, coupled with a bizarre set and un- usual sound effects, should well be worth your while. o

ASSOCIATIONS WORK (Continued from Page 1)

tutions where the regional coun- selors were located have indicated enthusiastic interest and support for the program. In many in- stances, faculty members are being relieved of some college responsi- bilities in order to serve as regional counselors.

The major area of activity to be stressed in the first year of the program is the improvement of the teaching of high school physics at the local level. The A.I.P. volume, "Physics in Your High School," is a guide for this purpose and emphasizes the effective teacher, the well-designed physics program, sufficient apparatus and books, and the best use of laboratories and classrooms.

Specific projects of activity will include: improvement of teacher training for physics through co- operation' with teacher training in- stitutions; efforts toward strength- ening the state and local syllabus in physics; assistance to school sys- tems in the proper selection of ap- paratus and laboratories; and well- planned endeavors to make the public understand the importance of physics teaching and the condi- tions under which it is done well.

Counselors will also: 1. Make visits to state superin-

tendents of education and state supervisors of science as well as comparable educational officials in large city and county systems. The counselors will strive to become familiar with the problems in im- proving high school physics courses and may suggest ways in which physicists can help.

2. Send reports of interesting de- velopments in each state to the Regional Counselor Office at the A.I.P. concerning new curricula, enrollment changes, local science projects, science teacher recruit- ment programs, or projects for up- grading the preparation of science teachers. This information will be made widely available.

3. Attend city and state meet- ings to follow developments in science education and to give talks on their activities.

The announcement concerning the program states: "Professional societies in physics must obtain the active help and advice of physicists who are familiar with local educa- tion problems if significant progress is to be made in improving physics teaching and if the full benefits of national efforts are to be realized.

"The improvement of physics teaching in the schools requires local activity by physicists because precollege education is primarily a responsibility of the city, county, or state in the United States."

Test Your Math; Try This Problem

The distance from town A to town B is 19 miles. A man leaves town A at 8 a.m. walking at the rate of 4 m.p.h. At some pt C along the way he injures his leg and must stop walking.

minstrel. They handled their own publicity for this one.

4. We are planning to return to the policy of consolidating club and church news.

5. We always encourage "Letters to the Editor". Controversy is the life-blood of any newspaper.

6. Good point. Any suggestions as to who would be interested in contributing poetry or book re- views? Movie reviews also make good copy.

7. The W.A.A. is getting better coverage than ever before since in- 9T"

dividual attention is given to the various activities.

8. Professors are urged to con- tribute anything.

9. Faculty personalities are treat- ed under the same policy as- are student personalities (See No. 1).

10. The increased size of The Breeze often prohibits Friday Night delivery because of shipping dif- ficulties between Madison and the Stauriton printer. Barring further difficulties, the paper will be dis- tributed no later than Saturday afternoon.

We hope to have clarified most of these points. Valid criticism and suggestions from the student body is always recognized and ap- preciated by the staff.
