“Eduction is probably the most
effective way of doing this.”
Had Kucheman intended the
term “education” to refer to the
learning experience that occurs
in any context, we could easily
concede it essential to any in
crease in productivity and likely
so for an income boost. Instead,
the professor apparently has
reference to institutional
training and has taken a “leap of
faith” that is a bit much for this
writer. I find little evidence that
ones own labor productiity is a
mapr factor in determining the
variation of ones income during
successive periods or can ex
plain the difference between two
individuals income levels.
Todays standard business and
political practices attest that the
shrewd and ruthless exercise of
power is the key to a rising in
come.
Labor productivity is certainly
a crucial factor in producing
real income, but in America only
a small part of his added value
accrues to the worker. The
worker is manipulated by in
dustry and our middle-class
society to its own profit and
given very few viable alter
natives. The manual laborer, for
whom we reserve our most
unpleasant chores, is also the
recipient of subsistence wages
and our scorn because we have
subjkgated him and somehow
believe ourselves superior.
By conferring degrees and
privileges, and reinforcing
pretensions of superiority we
can certainly increase incomes;

All In Humor At ACC
iQig) _ Swallowing goldfish,
sluffing phone booths, and
smoking dope can’t compare to
tlie latest college fad
iireaking - or running around
in the nude.
At the Atlantic Christian
College campus, this pastime
has become particularly
ffident, although, according to
the campus police chief only one
nude runner has been arrested
so far this year. The runner was
ciiarged with assault and
disorderly conduct after hitting
a resident director who tired to
make him go inside.
The record for mass running
in the nude was set at ACC by
about 125 sprinters, mostly male,
who circulated a dining hall
while spectators urged them on
with shouts, music, and

firecrackers.
A group of coeds claim they
held the most bizarre nude
event, a mock wedding in which
the participants wore only hats
and headdresses.
One student claims he started
the nude activities by taking off
his pants in front of a girl’s
dormitory.
“It wasn’t premeditated,” he
notes. “We just decided to do it
after we got drunk one night at
Happy Hour,”
The activity is not limited to
colleges. Time magazine reports
that Los Angeles housewives are
prone to shedding their clothes
and loping off into the cool
California night. ?ew streakers
are reported to police, who are
not overly concerned an>’\^'ay,
Time says. But passers-by have
been shaken up by the spectacle
several times in the past few
weeks and no one knows where
the streakers might streak next.
