Editor, ' Tl'“ is' 'e^/i'dent that Fayetteville SfeTi^ 'CoBege has become a col- the mdve- in enrollment ,jn the, increase, of facilities. D«y bj; day vye see something dif ferent in construction about the 'fetejius.' ' our school grows,' we find that our courses are becoming ,^ore . .and .more complicated. I hayp no beef about this, but I do nav^a'bSef. 'With- th'e' increase in subject . -O-ur-assignments have be- ,-cot»e-fjnore cpm-plex because of t^e of- soqrqe materials. As ' an example, I go to class with ''abput 30 .otheY students: When' an ';asf\{griin'eht ;is giVfeh, it is' usiially 'toe entire class. This in- \’trdtlcir tSadtie^'about' three other ci£(^6s arid ,'\lie 'AsBignment Is 'passed'to thcM likewise. Usiially all sections of a class follow a general outline and thus the as signments are repeated. The problem which we, the stu dents, face is a grave one. We find that our college library is a “one book library,” therefore we are handicapped and find that we do not complete - our assign ments by choice but by chance. Mr. Editor, are, there any plans in our growing college to over come this grave problem?

They are: Marvis McCrimmon, Barbara Gilmore, Willette Flowers, Doris Windom, Douglass McAllister, James Ramsey, Ruthie Ross, James Newman, Purvis Hewett, Ivory Shird, Gloria Wilson, Alice Han kins, Patricia Maryland, Marian Davis, and Cornelius Squalls. DECEMBER, 1964 FIRST BY FAITH James Stackhouse The Democratic process realiz es its most significant duty in the fouT-year selection of the na tion’s chief magistrate. It has been affirmed by many historians that America’s greatest men were never elected President. Hamil ton, Clay, Webster, Calhoun, and James G. Blaine, although domi nant figures in their parties, were passed by in favor of less influen tial and less able men. It is to the needs of party poli tics that we must look to discover why and how Presidents are se lected. The voters in November can pick between two candidates, but the party organizations screen th field to narrow the choice. This is not to say that if a big demo cracy is going to have an elective chief executive at all, there is any better method of choosing him; nor certainly to imply that it would be practicable for choices of such magnitude to be made in any way other than through the instrumentality of parties. It is merely to state a basic fact: that the persons who ever have a chance under our system to become President get it only when parties give it to them. Lyndon Baines Johnson has become the 36th President of the United States perhaps by faith rather than by choice; otherwise, he would probably have fallen with the great ones who never made it. “After graduating from Southwest Texas State Teachers College in 1930, he taught for two years and then went to Washing ton, D.C., as secretary to Repre sentative Richard M. Kleberg, a post he relinquished in 1935 to study law for a year at George town Law School.” “Johnson began his career in elective office in 1937 by win ning a seat in Congress. Re-elect ed in 1938, he was in the House for the next five terms.” In 1948 he was elected to the Senate. Four years later his Democratic col leagues chose him Senate minor ity leader. After the party gained Senate control in 1955, he was majority leader in the 84th and 86th Congresses. “An astute tactician and tire less worker, Johnson exercised almost unchallenged sway over Democratic policies in the Sen ate. Adopting a conciliatory view of partisan issues, he pursued \.nat he called ‘constructive op position’ to President Eisenhow er’s program and was considered too compromising by liberal Dem ocrats. Though a Southerner by heritage, he secured passage in 1957 of the first Civil Rights Bill in over 80 years, revised of rules governing filibuster, and another Civil Rights BiU in 1960 despite southern filibuster, and in 1964 with all his wit and politicking urged the passage of a greater Civil Rights Bill in 1964 and a tax cut bill. “There was general agrement on his mastery of the Senate’s legislative processes and his genius for the intricacies of political maneuver.” It is this that makes him stand above the others. As who controls the sen ate, controls the power of the United States. “In 1960, he sought his party’s nomination for the presidency, . . . but the winner, John F. Kennedy, chose him for vice-president.” He was sworn in as President on November 22, 1963, after the assassination of the President and has become fully elected as the President of the United States.—Hail to the Chief you mighty man of politics.
