IRC Plans A Full February Program;
Timothy Chang Spoke Monday Night
Large Attendance
May Be Attracted
To Hear Records
The IRC’s well padded program
for February was opened last
Monday night with the appear
ance of Timothy Chang, 23-year-
old Chinese who is now a Divinity
student at Duke University. Chang
spoke on the political situation in
China.
Born of Christian parents,
Chang decided in 1944 to go into
the ministry if he should have
the opportunity. He was gradu
ated from Fukien Christian Uni
versity in Agricultural Econom
ics in 1946 with a record that won
for him the highest scholarship
award offered by the Univ.ersity.
Since September, 1948, he has
been a student at Duke.
For next Monday’s program the
iRC has scheduled a panel discus
sion on “Berlin Tug of War,” to be
led by Elon students Fred Yar
borough and Betty Long.
IRC presidetn, Baxter Twiddy,
says that a movie is on tap for
the Feb. 14 meeting, but the title
of the movie has not been decid
ed upon.
A large turnout is expected for
the Feb. 21 meeting which will
feature the playing of a record
album giving a 45-minute docu
mentary reading on world events
from 1933-45. Called “I Can Hear
It Now.” The album is a recording
of 45 voices of world figures, in
cluding those of such men as

Among the most important
things he learned in college, the
late Robert Benchley listed the
trick of putting one paper bag
inside another to make a milk
shake container, and turning
socks inside out to make the
holes appear in different places.
Many college students today
can match Benchley’s list, for
they have found that if you sit in
a lecture with hundreds of other
students thre(e times a week, you
can write letters home, knit nine
pairs of socks, and graduate after
about four years.
In an article entitled, “Needed:
A College Revolution,” now ap
peering in the February Coronet,
Dr. Harold Taylor, president of
Sarah Lawrence College, calls for
drastic action to reform our “as,
sembly line educational system”
and “return to the real purpose of
liberal education, which is to edu-
cat0 the individual liberally.”
In the last 40 years, points out
Taylor, the individual student
has disappeared in our college
education upheaval, lost in anony
mity. Yet in our world of ten
sions and conflicts, it is crucial
that our educational system pro
tect the fundamental needs of the
individual.
“I ontend that the student is
being cheated,” says Taylor. “This
is not college—and it is not lib
eral education.”
Only if we help the student to
find his place in society, can we
look to him for the kind of lead
ership America so urgently needs
for the future.

MRS. NELLIE A. STAUFFER
Dean Stauffer
Begins Talks
On Thursday
Something new in the way of
lectures on the Elon campus is
scheduled to begin next Thursday
when Mrs. Nellie A. Stauffer, So
cial Dean, offers the first of a se
ries of weekly talks on “Social
Usages: A Reflection of Stable
Personality.”
Mrs. Stauffer has planned these
talks, she says, in answer to re
quests made by a number of stu
dents, including several memb.'jrs
of the Women’s Council. She
points out that men students, as
well as the women, are invited to
the lectures, and that attendance
will be voluntary.
All meetings are scheduled for
Society Hall at 10 o'clock on suc
ceeding Thursdays. The number
of talks is as yet indefinite.
“In all probability, the program
will last for six weeks,” Mrs
Stauffer says.
As she explains it, the talks will
be anything but drills in etiquette.
Primarily, emphasis will be on
principles behind social usages,
with considerable attention being
■given to the fundamentals of an
effective life. Still, Mrs. Stauf
fer hopes that her talks will not
take on the tone of a sermon.
“I don’t want to make this pro
gram profitable and instructive
only, but enjoyable as well,” she
says.
Mrs. Stauffer brings to this
program a great deal of experi
ence in training and dealing with
young people. She has spent
most of her life in private schools
and college work as a teacher,
counselor and in an administrative
capacity.
Adult Education Classes Commence

Uniform Pay For Student Aid
Recommended By Okla. Prof.
Norman, Okla. —|I.P.)— More
students could be aided in ob
taining a college education if an
organized program of selection
and part time employment were
provided, Frank A. Ives, director
of employment service at the Uni
versity of_ Oklahoma, declared
here.
Twenty to thirty per cent of
high school graduates who are
best equipped to profit by a high
er training do not go to college,
he pointed out. He proposed two
ways in which most colleges and
universities could improve their
student employment program:
first, by establishing standard
university wages for all work that
may be performed by students;
second, by developing a closer re
lationship among all student per
sonnel services by referring stu
dents to these agencies best equip
ped to handle their particular
problem.
In a survey of 47 state-support
ed schools, Ives found that the
minimum hourly wage for part
time employment variesf rom 30
cents in the south to 80 cents on
the west coast.
He pointed out that accusations
of educational institutions exploi
tation of “cheap” student labor
are not substantiated by facts.
Only a few isolated instances of
sweat shop pay for students exist.
These cases can often be traced
to a few unscrupulous local busi
ness men.”
A consistent hourly wage is the
general rule for educational insti
tutions, although several schools
have no established limit in the
rate of pay students may receive
for part time work.
Campus Evacuations
To Be Finished Soon,
Says Business Manager
In an interview with J. W.
Hayes, Business Manager of Elon
College, the following information
Vv'as brought to light concerning
the evacuations in connection
with the laying of new pipe lines
from the power house.
When the new power plant was
built, Elon’s heating system was
changed from high to low pres
sure. Consequently, the steam
lines had to be replaced for an ad
equate heating system. The lines
are now being replaced with new
pipes.
The escaping vapor that has
been seen over the campus was
caused by steam vaporizing water
that had leaked into old pipes, ac
cording to Hayes. The new sy.s-
tem did not provide enough steam
to rid the lines of seepage, and a
heat failure resulted.
The new line will be water
tight, and the pipes are being
placed in tunnels to avoid contact
with the ground. The manholes
had to be rebuilt to be water
tight also.
With the arrival of the last or
der of pipes, which is expected on
Feb. 1, the job should be complet
ed in a short time, and there
should be adequate heat all over
the campus, Mr. Hayes says.

Three-Week Drive
For Big Enrollment
Next Monday night the first 12-
week session of Elon’s brand new
Adult Education Program gets
underway as campus lights go on
and classroom doors open to stu
dents from Alamance and neigh
boring counties.
There has been no announce
ment concerning the number of
students enrolled for the classes.
Dr. W. W. Sloan, chairman of the
Adult Education Committee, says
that enrollment figures cannot
be determined until after the first
week of classes. A number of
persons who have not made for
mal application are expected to
turn up for the first classes and
enroll on the spot, he says.
Tomorrow will end a vigorous
three-week campaign on the part
of Elon professors on the Adult
Education Committee to acquaint
persons in this section of the
state with the program’s offer
ings.
Program representatives have
spoken to social clubs, business
organizations, public school facul
ties, industrial plants and other
groups nearly every day since the
publicity' campaign began. Series
of broadcasts have been aired
from a Reidsville station and from
stations WFNS and WBBB in Bur
lington.
“For whatever measure of suc
cess the program achieves,” Dr.
Sloan says, “much of the credit
must go to the radio stations that
gave free time and to the various
organizations that permitted us
to appear before them and state
our case.”
