Campus Editors Reveal Plans
The editors of various
campus publications were
asked recently about their
plans for the coming year.
Linda Long, a senior
from Pocomoke, Md. a
major in French and his
tory, and Randy Spencer,
a senior from Manches
ter, Conn., a history ma
jor, are co-editors of
Veritas, an SGA sponsor
ed newspaper.
Their plans include ex
panding the paper to eight
pages, which would in
clude campus news, four
editorials (political,cul-
tural, racial , campus af
fairs), letters to the edi
tor, cartoons and student
polls on occasions.
“We are eliminating
sports since The Maroon
and Gold carries this,”
Spencer added. We are
also working on subscrip
tions, and offering clas
sified advertisements at a
lower rate.”
Another plan in the
making is a “reporter
commission.” Two or
more reporters will study
a problem for a period
of two to three weeks or
as long as necessary and
submit a report on the
findings.
Roger Oliver, a senior
from Virginia Beach, Va.
and an English major, is
the editor of Phi Psi Cli,
the annual.
His plans for this year
include greater use of
candid pictures, more use
of special effects such as
spot color duotone pic
tures throughout the book.
There will be no four
color pictures (Duotone
pictures involve one color
and produce a shading

Oliver said that the
book will be different than
the past in that it will
be more up to date and
more up to what people
are seeking.
Class pictures are now
scheduled for Oct, 16,17,
and 18, These will be
slightly different and not
so formal. All the faculty
pictures will be candid.
David Spicer, a senior
from Wharton, N. J,, who
has been editor of the
Maroon and Gold for the
past few weeks, recently
withdrew from college. A
new editor will be an
nounced in the near fu
ture.
The Maroon and Gold
will strive this year to
give its readers accurate
accounts of campus e-
vents and news. In addi
tion, the paper has added
editorials, letters to the
editor column, and a syn
dicated cartoon.
Ed Baker, a senior
from Falls Church, Va.,
is editor of the Campus

song about a bizarre
marital adventure in the
life of “Young Beichan,”
grandfather of Thomas A.
Becket. So long was this
ballad that Dr. Williams,
in his low-keyed and re
laxed manner, sum
marized the whole middle
section in several well-
chosen sentences, much
to the delight of the audi
ence.
One of the most inter
esting renditions of the
evening was thatof "Lady
Isabel and the Elf
Knight,” a very old ballad
of extremely complex tri
partite structure, which
Dr. Williams expounded
in considerable detail.

late appropriation of
funds Henning has not
been able to work with
booking agencies until re
cently and said that this
group would be the best
overall group that the col
lege could get for Home
coming. However, they
would cost the SGA $2000
more than was originally
allotted for entertainment
for the weekend. He also
mentioned that such
groups as Stevie Wonder,
Oliver, Johnny Winter,
The Turtles, O. C.Smith,
and the Vogues are pre
sently available and are
within the $5000 price
range.
Speaking against the
bill. Bill Walker, Finan
cial Committee Chair
man, said that the SGA
could not financially af
ford to contract the “4
Seasons” without injuring
other SGA functions. The
present SGA owes $2195
in bills encurred by last
year’s SGA, owes $500
- 600 to the auditor, and
has already allotted an
extra $500 for Home
coming festivities. He
then requested that the
bill be defeated and it
was.
More entertaining per
haps was “Froggy Went-
a-Courting” with its won
derfully nonsensical re
frain; the audience
initially responded with
meek self - conscious
ness, but it sounded 0111
more vigorously witt
each repetition until tj
the last several stanzas
it was thoroughly caught
up in the singing. Dr. wBl-
lams concluded his per
formance with two en
cores, one courting song,
“Shady Grove.” the other
a real murder ballad,
“Wild Bill Jones.”
Dr. William’s master
ful performance of tra
ditional ballads was a re
freshing departure from
the popular techniques of
most contemporary bal
lad singers. The enthusi
astic audience obviouslj
welcomed his authenti
city. All in all, this must
surely go down asoneol
the most successfuloftlie
