Somewhere on this great campus
of our beloved Eton College there
will be a person or two who reads
e^eryrtiing. Even this.
These people will be the type
checking credits on TV shows. You
blow — who directed, who did the
musical background, who manned
the cameras. The very astute Ma
roon and Gold reader, by Page Two
in what we in the trade call "ITie
Masthead," will have determined
that this prose is dispensed by one
H Iteid, identified as "Alumni E>1-
Itor."
You freshmen may care to know
I am a real person, a sort of aging
one, albeit, who does thL-. for fret’
because he likes the school a great
deal. A long time ago, the school
liked him. So, we are evening it
up. as it were.
As to what the devil this column
Is, is. .something else It tri*‘, to
show you younger folk that an
alumnus is not some left field
jerque who harbors no interest in
what you all do. At the risk of
sounding untoward, I will, without
slightest trace of blush, assure you
that this old coot is vastly intrigued
with, for example, an Elon, whom
I suggest may well have the best
limbs since Senior Oak. All right
So I'm being cute. On a serious
kick, I am quite impre.s.sed with
the aspirations of one Scott Crab
tree. a ferocious footballer with
gentle manner. He tells me he
plans to take graduate work at Wil
liam and Mary, a house of learn
ing I. too, took in in my academic
rounds. Actually, I was surprised
young Mr. Crabtree would tell me
anything, as 1 interrupted his dat(
when we discus.sed. of all thin"-
master's degrees.
This is a colunrui wherein a tot
of recollections of my undergraduate
days will come to light—about how
Dean TTieo Strum played clarinet in
our Elon band that looked like
something out of the Bowery; about
bow a big daddy swatted timely
hits in baseball but who threw luusy
water bombs 'his name is Dr. .)
Earl Danieley—he has some fairly
important job on campii.s. now. I
understand', and maybe, on an off
day. you’ll find something worth
while to read. That might include
Dr. A. L. Hook's giving a smart
alecky clod a break to make good
and I can brag by saying I made
the most of the opportunity he ex
tended me.
Well, this is a dumb column this
time and I know it
I have simply tried to define what
it i.*! for you newcom‘rs.
M iybe if I promised you a re-
vti.linn report on some parlor ac
tivity ifi West during my time
twerty years ago, you'll be back.
All right. I'll write you an eye
ox>ner next time out.

Bowden Guest Speaker
At Summer Graduation
Speaking on the topic of “On
Being Human In A Dehumanized
World," Dr. D. J. Bowden, director
of the School of Religion at Indiana
University, told members of the
I Elon College summer graduating
[class here on Sunday, August 22nd,
I that “to be truly human is to be
i at-one with both God and man.”
The speaker, who was for many
years dean of the college and dean
of men here at Elon College, ogen-
ed his discussions with the ques
tion, "What is man?" He then men
tioned several historical answers
to the question to show that man
is a product of his biological her
edity and his physical and social
environment, but he further de
clared that man is just as much a
“programmed" being as any mod
ern computer.
Dr. Bowden's address was the
