For an example of the amusements they seem to love: They Eviplay dently they are of Indian descent because they frequently paint their faces and then act particularly warlike. They seem especially fond of singing one particular song. They are very athletic: they do calisthenics together at early hours; they climb buildings to satisfy their curiosity about the Converse bells inscription. even They love climbing stairs going out of their way to climb up at odd hours of the early morning and sing Christmas songs and take water -- balloon showers.

"Bods" on the Auction Block Bring Top Prices at Slave Market Opening (by LARRY WILLIAMS) Tradition has always been an integral part of the American higher education scene. Westminster is, of course, no exception. Tradition at Westminster, however, seems more of a revision to the more primitive practices of witchraft and slavto ery than an introduction College Life. Senior wrath terrorized the Westminster Campus this week by holding a Freshmen Class slave auction. As the sheep were herded onto the before (Simon auction block ' the Jears of Clayton, Lagree) the upperclassmen became deafening. As harems were bought and lost on the block, terror and anxiety reined supreme. What am I offered for this (sweet?) Five cents young thing? came the depressing reply. Let us see her teeth.

After careful consideration of the function and purpose of the Student Judiciary, the Administra -- tion and the Student Government Council have (for once) reached a consensus of opinion. They feel that the Student Court is best equipped to enforce this unpopular regulation. It therefore becomes my duty as Chief Justice to spell out for you, the unfortunate victims, the details encompassed by this new means of enforcement.

They walk briskly from place to This is the Place or back. They crawl around on the floor and shoot at invisible objects with their fingers. They love to work for nothing. They park on the edge of campus so they get more exercise. They say hello to everyone. They are outstand- ingly obedient.

It is during this week that all Freshman students have the opportunity, and duty, to elect officers for the school year.

It is clear that at Westminster a substantial part of our task is to insure that the individual may be exposed to a context of values in which high performance is encouraged. It is essential that we enable you, as students, to see yourselves as participants in one of the most exciting eras in history and to have a sense of purpose in relation to it. It is essential that we enable you to see that you are living out in your own lives one of the gravest crises that has ever occurred in man's relationship to man. And you must see, too, that it is a time of great opportunity. sets our Noting education values to society, Dr. Arbogast We do not wish to concluded: impose upon students a rigidly defined set of values.
