— Editorials — Turmng On To Jesus Recently the news media has been publicizing quite a bit about the “turning on to Jesus” movement. Some youths are alleged to have given up drugs by “getting the faith” and “being saved”. Communities of “Jesus freaks” have been organized in a few states, where in some cases they raise their own food and are somewhat isolated from the world of complexities and modern day responsibilities. Others are not going to such an extreme but are “getting high” on Jesus with the production “Jesus Christ Superstar” encouraging them on. They seek for a really emotional experience with the supernatural and feel that “being in there” with a super - force will solve most of their problems. They don’t question — they just accept “behef” as the ultimate. Another group of worshipers is the 19th century type that feel any change or modern method of relating to the “Gospel” is wrong and a threat to the sacredness of Christianity. They condemn “Jesus Christ Superstar” as being blasphemous and sacreligious even though it might get the message of what the Christ - figure stood for across. And of course there is the group of “believers” who sit back and watch the church conflict, willing to accept the method supported by the majority. It seems as though everyone is trying to “get high on” or “find” Jesus. They argue as to what is or is not the proper dogma or doctrine; as to what is sacreligious or irreverant. Everyone searching for the super - being - Preachers yell about believing in Jesus and the cons^uences of reiection; the necessity of certain rites. Is dogma and doctrine more important than getting across the idea of what the Christ - fi^re stood for? Is it essential that man even believe in a supernatural force if he exhibits the traits at tributed to “J.C.” — love, understanding, patience, compassion, perservence, deter mination, and individuality? Is the individual who rejects the extremism of communes, the farce of the once - a - week Christian; the whole idea of the Great Being beyond, evil and to be classed as an outlaw if he lives to his capacity the life indicative of the “Jesus Christ Superstar”? And is truly open to the ideas of all men, seeking to find a peace and truth in the world? Who’s Who In Who’s Who Help! The newspaper you are now reading is three - fourths of the newspaper that was scheduled for Mav but never made it to the press.

SGA Report To have a better Student Government Association is not just the work of a few people on campus. It is in the hands of everyone that says “I am a student at SCC.” If we would work together as one great big body, we would carry over all the activities that are planned for the coming year. We have various com mittees working trying to make the academic year enjoyable. Only the students can make their work a suc cess or failure. There is one conunittee that every student should feel himself a part of, and this is the annual .staff For many years we would have had liked the par ticipation of the students but it has failed. But this year we feel most certain that everyone is going to put his best foot forward and make our first annual a success. If students really care about the college and want to serve on any committee, let it be known by contacting any member of the SGA.

These sessions took place in the faculty lounge and allowed adults to meet together and worii for the betterment of SCC, especially in the way of personal relations. Topics of discussion in cluded race and student activities. Everyone present was able to voice his opinions without fear of ridicule or rejection and became more aware of how others felt about things. Something Special To many people. May 30 was just another Sunday spent sleeping or fishing, but to 270 people it was something special — it was the day of the SCC Commencement exer cises. As is the tradition, a processional announced the filmg in of the g-aduates. Rev. Thomas Spence presented the invocation and S.G. Koonce, chairman of the Board of Trustees, greeted those in attendence. Dr. English Jones was the Commencement speaker. He challenged the graduates to try new ideas for the betr terment of world conditions. Dr. Jones is the president of Pembroke State University.

"From such an examination/ we think, will come a clearer understanding of the problems that have occasioned and surrounded campus protest, and, we hope, also the beginnings of recognition or development of widespread agreement, where such agreement already exists unperceived or is developable, concerning solutions to the problems/^ Guy Strickland BUI McCauley Judy Mincey ^tty King Lewis Keith Nelda Sue Home Staff Dick Barnes Alice Jocobs Taressa Fait Jimmy Fogle Phylis Wood Glo Jordan
