Ciodfelter and Lawrence Wilkinson went to Atlanta laterthat same week along with 10other semi-finalists from theother five states .n the south-eastern district.

Only four of these twelve areannually given the award andCiodfelter was one of thosechosen to receive it.

In talking about the state anddistrict interviews. Ciodfelterlikened them to the North Carolina Fellows interviews, butwith more experienced interviewers. The interviews mixedabstract questions with specific-questions requiring pure intel-lectual knowledge.

"They weren't trying to pur-posely trip me up, but a guywould say. "I see you've studiedSanskrit and you're interestedin philosophy. Would you relateBuddhist philosophy to such-and-such a philosopher?' and Iwould say. 'I can't do that, I'msorry." Most of the interviewwas saying Idon't know.' '

When asked if the l2 hourinterviews were high-pressured,he replied, "It was the sort ofpressure just to justify yourself:they weren't trying to see whereyour psychological breakingpoint was or anything. Iwassurprised, you get all thesescary notions about what it'ssupposed to be like, but it wasnot like that at all."

The candidates were notifiedat the conclusion of the lastof the interviews of their selec-tion or rejection, a processwhich, according to Ciodfelter,

caused for more than a littleanxiety.

Ciodfelter was one of the fourwho survived the screening pro-cess, however, and he expressedthese thoughts on his selection."This gives me a chance to sitback and do some serious aca-demic work which Ihaven'tdone in a long time, some seri-ous concentrated work, andthere won t be any involvementson off campus activities to distract me. It's <i good break inthe flow of things."

As to his platform. Rich said.'Its basically a campaignagainst mis-information and itis this misinformation thatbreeds the mistrust which manifests itself in the lack of understanding between the variousconstituencies of the college."

To aid in the accurate re-porting of the news. Rich hopesto organize a series of investi-gative teams composed of stu-dents interested in particu-lar topics. Other improvementshe would like to make includeincreased size and quality ofthe sports pages, information onhow other colleges are handlingmajor campus issues, and theaddition of a guest column aswell as columns on the draft,cultural activities at nearby col-leges, and satirical columns.

After three terms as Meck-lenburg County Commissioner,James G. Martin is runningfor the United States House ofKepresentatives.

Associate Professor of Chem-istry Martin announced hiscandidacy for the Ninth Districtseat December 20. He was thefirst to declare his intentionsand will probably be the onlyRepublican to do so.

Next fall, insteid of enteringhis twelfth year of teachingchemistry at Davidson, he willcampaign. Martin has receiveda leave of absence from theschool for the fall term andmet what he called "a fairresponse from the administra-tion." If elected, he will be thesecond Davidson graduate toserve in Congress.

Martin stated that being acollege professor would not bea major factor in his campaign.He will emphasize his experi-ence in county government andattempt to establish his nunphilosophical position. He re-gards himself as right of cen-ter, as a "moderate conserva-tive."

He stated four basic campaignthemes in his formal announ-cement for candidacy.They arethe need for emphasis on localgovernment, a practical ap-proach to environmental prob-lems, a pledge to continue thepersonal service performed forcongressional constituents, andthe value of a strong two-partysystem of government.

On going closer to liiccanvasses. Ihe first recog-nized form vanishes in themoving lines and small colorsplashes. The development fromHouchens' photographs of thelandscape and terrain of Mullorca (attached with the paintings) his expressionism comesthrough a new approach to light.

Houchens was fom-d to workfrom sli 'es Ow in ioor weatherconditions and insufficient lightmost of the year in Deya (thecommunity in which he and hisfamily lived>

This use of illuminated slidesposed new and intense ap-proaches to light and its am-biguous effects. Prom this resuited abstractions of lightness,a quality of translucency.

Landscape. seascape. perspective drawings, drawings ofhis children, and geraniumplants are the subject matter.The sensitiveness expressed de-veloped as these subjects became of extremr importance inthe quiet, rather "primitive"life on the island.

The painting "Torrente" is representativeof allHouchens' ob-jectives. The Torrente is astream in the village of Deyawhere the people threw theirgarbage. This subject relates onan emotional basis.

In addition to the feeling, the"fluid ambiguity" in the move-ment of water, the movementof the images, and the extremeeffort of light throughout thedepth of the stream imply asensitiveness already present inNature. Houchens said he foundin this the richest of abstractqualities.

In his painting of Torrentethe artist tries to capture itslayered abstractness, its play

Student government at Davidson has come a iong'.av in a few years Beginning with Tom Earnhardt in1967 - 08 and moving on through Joe Murphy. Peter Hobbie. Ran Coble and now Danny Clodfelter. this campus's■tuder.t presidents have guided, prodded dragged, and.ed student government into a position of relative power.respect and effectiveness.

Therefore, it would be nothing less than tragic for'»ur student government to slide backwards or to stand- ■;.: in the moving stream of college life due to the elec-l\r,r. of the wrong man as president. For the SGA Presi-dent does after all. dominate and almost dictate the di--f-;'j.'-. that student go%-ernment takes and the effective-nesi Aith which it moves, and the wrong man in thea heel could cause the whole SGA boat to capsize

Because of all these factors, we feel it imperative'hat we endorse Peepies as the best candidate for SGA

Of the two candidates, only Peepies faces the futureIr. his work a.-, a class senator, in his tireless efforts with*he Peace Coalition, in his responsible service with theVMCA ar.d in his dedication as a freshman hall counselorPeoples has proven his administrative abilities his sen-;".-.;"; .-.;- concern for the problems of the Davidson stu-:<■-* ar.d hi- ability as a leader and nowhere can he bey.'jr.d ia:icr.g

desire and ability to learn. Thistype of student should be placedin a school such as Davidson ata cost no higher than any pub-lic institution. Such a studenthas demonstratedhis desire andaptitude and should not be in-hibited for monetary reasons.Davidson boasts that this is itspresent policy but at best thiswould be dubious.

Tlu' ideal situ;ttiiui would belor ill! schools to be the prop-iity of the pubic. Any persondesiring education would beplaced in a school suited forhis intellectual growth. The beststudents would be assigned tothe best schools strictly on thisbasis, and all levels of publiceducation should cost the sameregardloss of the level of qual-ity.

Evidently this is incrediblyidealistic. The day that David-son will become a public in-stitution is a long_ way off. Anduntil such a day comes it wouldseem foolish for anyone to goto any but the best schools thatthey can afford.

Tin evolution of our society"may from private schools is animprovement we should strivefor.

Being still possessed by «i

feeing of Christmas and NewYear's cheer. Ibegin this ar-ticle with a pa: on Davidson'sback I think that DavidsonCollege is one of the better pri-vate schools around.

Having said th:s. it is timeto come to the point <>i thiscolumn. Ihave begun to ques-tion seriously if there should besuch a thing as a private insti-tution of learning.I am very much opposed to

private secondary schools inthe United States. Iam opposedto them for several reasons.One reason is that privateschools tend to separate peopleaccording to economic class.Another reason would be thathigher quality education is giv-en to the affluent strictly onthe basis of ability to pay.In trying to be honest Ifind

little more justification for pri-vate schools on the undergraduate level than I do on tin-secondary school level. The af-fluent continue to send theirkind to the higher quality pri-vate schools while the less af-fluent either don t go to schoolor go to less expensive stateinstitutions.

Naturally, there are some pri-vate schools that art- inferiorto many public schools on theundergraduate level. But theirare many schools like Davidsonwhere students obtain prefer-ential treatment and higherquality instruction basically he-cause of the ability to pay forit.

There is a place for schoolsof the Davidson type for thosestudents who show an unusual

■ hicr. is somewhat opposed to.range. Practically every timestudents have suggested changes.ih ch would move Davidsoninto the future. Bill has opposedsuch changes.

The Alexander year as vice-president was characterizedmainly by inaction. Much of"he positive work begun in theRes.dence Hall Association be-fore Bill came to office was castaside and ignored, largely be-cause the bulk of Bill's timewas not spent in improving thequality of life for all studentsliving on campus,but was rather spent in fighting for an off-campu- house for the remain-ing, selective SPE national fraternity members.

Also, probably because heknew an election was comingup. Bill chose to abstain enmany decisions in the studentsenate, because he knew thathis traditional views do not sitwell with many students.

The work of Ralph Pecpleshas also been strongly influ-enced by his personalcharacter.But it is. I think. ;i very dif-ferent character than thai ofHilt Alexander.

Ralph grew up in a very trad-itional area in Charleston, S. C.but somehow he has developed

Before we recommence beating what the administra-tion and trustees seem to regard as a very dead horse, wewould like to express sincere appreciation to the unionofficials who have developed an excellent report on thefuture of the union.

Their work has been painstakingly thorough and re-presented one of the finest reports submitted to Davidson

Davidson is going to miss its union building next fall.perhaps more than any building except the library orChambers Building.

The plans call for the use of the Guest House as theinterim, and we certainly hope that it is just an interimperiod, union facility.

That this raises problems is immediately apparent. Of-fices for the college's publications will be located in twohouses in Jackson Court (we may have to evict someonetherei. as will those for student government and the radiostation

Despite several large rooms, the Guest House willhave very limited facilities for any gathering of over 60or 70 people. The upstairs is dedicated to office space forthe continuing union community.

This is not to mention the disappointed guests whomay find themselves in a lottery for the one guest bed-room in the Carolina Inn.

The dispersal of the union's activities across the cam-pus will pose difficulties in organizing a social life on cam-pus The convocations and commencement, aside frombasketball games, will be the only occasions in an in-roming freshman's year here that he may see more than60 fellow students congregated in the name of the Cham-bers Maids.

It's hard to be one big family without a house.

A REVIEWBy JACE GAFFNEY

Peter Bogdanovich's The LastPicture Show is ;i black-and-white film, and its first scene.Iramed in long shot, is of tincourthouse square of a dusty,desolate Texas town. The came:a then pans slightly until wesee the "picture house" (movietheatre1.

Bogdanovich's opening scentis startling in its conventionalily. Black-and-white photograpliy. simple camera placementand movement, and the dustiness seem to have been manu-lactured by ghostly (ghastly?)wind machines discarded fromsome ancient Hollywood set.

There is something squareabout it all. not campy square.l>ut honest square. The scenefirmly places the audience m■1 real-life setting, but it alsocreates a peculiar, ominous-type resonance.

The KA's will have troublemaking up for lack of a goodbig man and the loss of Steve

By HOWARD BOYDAsst. Sports Editor

Well fans, here it is, whatyou've all been waiting for; thebi-annual mid-season pie-seasonBoyd poll. With thirty basket-ball squads of all sizes, shapes,;md taltnts, it was even tough-er than usual forecasting theoutcome of the three leaguer;ices.

The SAE's look to be a slightfavorite in League A. Most oflast year's squad returns, NickLivengood, Bruce Baird, DaveWeaver, Dave Faison. SteveBattle, and good sophs EldonBasham, .John Webel and SteveKeller give the E's great depthand good shooting, althoughlack of a good big man couldhim. Still, this is a strong squadwith a good shot at winningwhat is probably the toughestleague.

Toughest competition for theK's will come from Delt II andWll, with Delt II getting thenod for second. Jim Brown andAndy Davis are all-star calibre,and seasoned vets abound in-cluding Hugh Gaither. WoodyMontgomery and Andy Ingles.ii'5

" soph Bill Mcllwain willhelp underneath.

Watts II features sharpshoot-ing Juan Sanchez and the all-around excellence of MarkHodgman. and appears the best

Fanny & Mabel, last year'srunners-up lost Greg Gerdy andFrank Clark, and gained RollieSumwalt, and overall is weak-er. Bill Barnhill is experiencedand runs the offense well, andwith Sumwalt forms a top-notchbackcourt.

Emanon III got off to a surprising start, but will probablylade down the stretch. Bill Bencini is a sparkplug guard, andd'.V Bill Giduz rebounds well.A fairly solid club, but lacksthe big guns to reach the play-offs.

Thedefending championPikaswere destroyed by graduation,losng All-IMAC Mark Affeldtand Floyd Strand, and pointman Dennis Watson went JYA.Only starter back is John Cal-houn. and the Pikas dependtoo much on his offensive fire-power. It's a long drop for the

Pikas after two unbeaten sea-sons.

Cannon II is led by Dan Hen-derson, who does it all but fre-quently has too little help. PatBennett. Chuck Gladue andDonnie Bain are other top play-ers. No threat for the playoffs,but looks like the best of thebottom four in the league.

Sentelle III lacks scoringpunch, and needs better or-ganization, but has an adequatesupply of talent. 6'5" Bill Smithlooms large in the middle, withTom Soos. Rick Mullen, WardPritchett. and Billy Lynn allcapable performers. This teamsorely lacks a big scorer, butif it jells migh: play a spoilerrole.

The Nus are vastly improvedover a year ago but they hada leng way to go. Tom Case andDave Duggins have pumped newlife into the attack, and BillSims, Steve Spicer and SkipGreathouse can all play. TheNus lack depth and size to bea real factor.

The Plumbers deserve thename. They simply lack size,depth, speed, talent; in short,everything. John Carlson, BenTowe, and Dtn Parman havepaced an anemic offense, andthat speaks volumes.

The biggest team in theI.MAC, Keeter's, figures to walkaway with League B. 6'6" GaryScibal. 67" Bob Peele, 67"Frank Soos, and 6'4' Mike O'-Malley give them awesome re-bounding power. Steve Williamsmay be the best guard in theIMAC. Depth is a problem, butall things considered, this isprobably the best team around.

However, the Delts, Betas, andPAX all have strong teams,and it won't be a Cakewalk

The Delts feature Greg Sikesand his brother Mike, alongwith Scotty Shipp, Mike Kelley,Bill Huffman and JimmyWright, all veterans. Delts aresolid, but may have spread tal-ent too thin (with two teams)to win it.

The Betas once again aresparked by quick-shooting Ran-dy Ely, but he has more helpthan last year.

PAX has two of the best sophsin Mike Harding and Charlie

E's, Keeter's Picked In IMACTHE NEW LOOK. OF IMAC

Johnny Ribet takes a jumper over Doug Berry ac teammate Sandy May looks on.

By JIM NANNACopy Editor

In keeping with the mood ofthe country, Davidson's inter-collegiate athletics programseems to be engagedin a "youthmovement" of its own.

Just witness the teams thatDavidson has fielded this year:the cross-country team's toprunners were mostly freshmen,and the Wildcats' basketballbench includes several sopho-mores, four of whom see actionregularly

The trend has continued intothe minor winter sports, as boththe swimming and wrestlingteams are depending mostly on;.thletes who are in the firsthalf of their college careers.

Davidson's matmen will begoing for their third victory to-

day when they meet UNC-Char-lottr here at Davidson.

The wrestlers, coached byCharles Parker, have alreadybeaten Catawba College and St.Andrews by lopsided scores, andaccording to team memberMiles Ward "most everybodyhas won their matches."

Ward said the team, whoseroster includes only one senior,is "a pretty good team, but wecan't really compete with Pur-man, William and Mary, andother schools that give a lot ofscholarships."

However, Ward mentionedthat several Wildcat wrestlersmight be contenders for con-ference titles iti their individualweight classes.

Swimming coach Tom Stevenshas found his team in somewhat of a dilemma over thelack of experienced personnel.

However, Stevens explainedthat four members of last year'steam are in Europe this year,and that there are very fewupperclassmen on the team.

The aquamen open their sea-son's competition to-day againstMorris Harvey College, at :ip.m. in Davidson's pool

The Davidson CHgers man-aged to overcome a spotty sea-s' 11 start and won five of theirlast six games, including theCharlotte Invitational Tourna-ment and their first win overa nationally milked them.

One major reason for ;henewfound success of the "Catsis the emergence of John Pal-eoni as a scoring threat. Fal-coni has led the teams' scoringin most of these games, andwas named to the all-tourna-ment team in the CIT.

Tomorrow night the 'Cats hitilie road lo meet West Virginia.The Mountaineers have donelairly well in the national polls.

The 'Cats will face the sameMountie stinting five that de-feated them 93-79 in Morsan-town last year, keyed on guardWil Robinson. Robinson averaged 25 points a game last yearas a junior, and shot Kl percent from the foul line.

Hacking up Robinson will beSam Oglcsby, a 6-5 senior, whohit 15 a game last year as ajunior college transfer.

"The Wcsl Pakistan army wassent into E.isf Pakistan to sup-prcst certain elements who be-lieved in independence fromWest Pakistan," said Faill."This introduced a flow of re-fuqees into India, providing fora good excuse to interfere withPakistan's internal affairs."

policy toward Pakistan, Fai/isaid that the major flaw inU. S. foreign policy is "its grac-ious military aid to developing,countries."'

Under certain treaties Pakis-tan receives aid from the Unit-ed States: this aid takes shapemostly in arms and weapons.

"This is exactly what we donot ncei!— we want only a docu-mented assurance that Pakistanis provided with adequate as-sistance for its defense," Faizisaid.

"Foreign aid to Pakistanshould be in fields of educationand research, agriculture, in-dustries, and finally defense, inthat order.'

Faizi contended,however, thatAmerican partiality towardWest Pakistan prevented whatmight have developed "into aworld crisis." Faizi hastens toadd. "This is not a conceitedviewpoint."

Ii.di.i. while the rice of Indiawould be badly needed by tin-Bengalis: "in that case theIndians will keep their hold onBangladesh for a lonu time andeventually dominate it entire-ly."

Tarecn pointed out that Indiahas already transferred a num-ber of its administrative offi-cials to run Bangladesh.

Tareen's interest in the situa-tion reached a high point whenhe inquired into the possibilityof his returning home to joinin the war effort.

When asked why he felt thisobligation,Tareen replied,"Thereason is very simple. My coun-try had been attacked and itwas fighting for its very life.Sitting so far away I felt help-less and frustrated and felt thatI needed to contribute some-thing to the effort."

Although Tarecn had no criti-cism of present United States
