(This is the fourth and last in a
series of articles concerning our
foreign students at Charlotte Col
lege.)
From Budapest, Hungary, to
Charlotte College—that’s quite a
trip, but it’s one that Joel Gabor
(no relation to Zza Zza) seems
happy he made.
Joel is pursuing a Chemical En
gineering course here and hopes to
continue his studies after gradua
tion. He is currently employed with
Koppen Chemicals, Inc., working
with chemicals and dyestuffs.
Away from tubes, bottles, and oth
er chemical paraphernalia, he likes
to experiment with photography.
Naturally, his hobby is related to
chemicals, but in a slightly dif
ferent and more enjoyable way.
He chose Charlotte College be
cause of the courses offered and
the convenience of attending
classes after work. Despite a full
time job and a full schedule of
classes, Joel also is overcoming the
barrier of a strange language. All
in all, we think he deserves a pat
on the back, and we’re very glad
to have him with us.

become the College’s first grad
uates in the Electronics Technolo
gy program.
As a demonstration, the class,
under the direction of instructor
T. K. Bush, presented a progress
report by Mr. Murray Adkins,
Chairman of the Board of Trustees
of Charlotte Community System,
to the student body. The class was
at a disadvantage in not having
time to make the necessary prep
arations; however, the program was
a success.
Southern Radio Corporation loan
ed the college a new RCA receiver
in order that the student body
could see the telecast.
Closed circuit television has
many applications in industry to
day. The system is used extensive
ly by banks, large department
stores, trucking lines, assembly
line-type plants, and nightwatch-
men.
The angelic-looking person above
is none other than that irresistible,
irreplaceable George Killough, the
Collegian’s nomination for “Un
sung Hero of the Year.’’ In this, his
third year at CC, the Charlotte
native served as Editor of the Col
legian for the fall quarter. His
duties as photographer for the an
nual plus a tough scholastic sched
ule forced him to resign his edi
torial position at the end of that
quarter. Since then, he has been
photographer for the Collegian.
Last year, he was chairman of
the Assembly Committee, in addi
tion to working on the annual. He
was al.so .As.sociate Editor of the
Collegian.
George, a graduate of Central
High School, has worked as a beau
tician and a photographer, and has
worked in the college office.
A science major, George will be
gin his junior year at the Univer
sity of North Carolina next year.
Pardon the corn, but here’s hop
ing U.N.C. will be even happier
hunting grounds for the great
white chief of photography.

How many people can you stuff
into a telephone booth? There has
been a campaign by a few of our
fellow colleges to find out.
It seems that the contest rules
originated in England. The booth
has to be of regulation size and
the person in the middle has to be
able to make a phone call.
Ryerson Tech tied the record a
few weeks ago with 19. M.I.T.,
using their “scientific method,”
were able to cram 19 in also but
their booth was over-sized and they
were disqualified. Another case of
an over-sized booth occurred at the
University of Alberta’s Calgary.
They got 40 in it. Modesto, a Cali
fornia junior college, laid the booth
on its side 34 people were able to
get into it. There was a flood of
arms and legs all over the front
lawn of the school when the booth
sides broke.
So far, according to my research,
the record is 22. It was set by St.
Mary’s two weeks ago. Last week
a college claimed 36. They were
using “fractional stuffing” which,
of course, is strictly against all
ethics of phone booth cramming.
I have heard some rumors that
there might possibly be an “ugly
man” contest staged by the col
lege. This will never happen
though, because there would be too
much competition between this re-

The top selling albums are "Peter
Gunn,” “hungri i,” and “Gigi.”
Another bouquet for RCA, thanks
for making “The Big 18” album.
Now if I only had $4.00!
A note to the girls! Swinging
Frank Sinatra’s got a new album
titled, and appropriately too, “Look
to Your Heart.”
Finally, what’s the name of the
RCA pooch ? If you said Dr. Heck,
you’re wrong. It’s Nipper!

Wonder if anybody has noticed it

you would be surprised at the
amount of rest I get. My dreams
are balanced on the tightrope of
world affairs and not very steadi
ly, to say the least.
Mom says I’m lazy but Dad,
rather than admit defeat as my
“up-bringer,” calls it “unchannel
ed interest.” “Fet yourself a set
goal, son,” he advises, “and don’t
let up till you reach it.”
Contemplating my fate as a man,
I have reached this somewhat odd
but reasonable conclusion: I would
like to go and live on the moon.
Now, before you think t’ve lost my
mental roadmap, I’d like to ex
plain, as best I can, my reasons for
this strange desire.
I don’t want to give you the il
lusion that I wish to be the first
person on the moon. Rather, I
would settle for the hundredth po
sition, just so long as I get there.
It’s not fame that I’m after. I
guess I just want a little peace.
I’ve struggled through this
“swamp” known as the teenage
years for about seven years now,
and I believe that I’m stuck in the
mire. I can’t see a way of escape,
so, to all you cats in the same con
dition, I’ll just say “See you on the
moon, man!”
