Wednesday, February 8, 1967 Befuddled Briton Awed By By RICHARD IIILIBROWN (Ttie following was over heard in London recently. The lady seemed to be telling her friend of one of her American experiences, after a recent vis it. Could it have been a Caro lina football game?) ". . . Well, yes, there were all these people, thousands of them, dressed elegantly enough for a Royal garden par ty, dui ail going into the huge stadium. We had to pay ten dollars yes dear, one pound sixteen each to follow them through the turnstiles. Howev er, at least we had a seat, not like at Twickenham where about 30,00 have to stand for the big rugby matches, and . that was lucky because it took - from one-thirty until nearly tour to play a game that ac- luoujr maieu one nour. At lirst there were lots of boys run ning around in crash helmets and bright clothes, with rugby footballs. Then two large bands came on; they weren't very smart at marching, not JllrO tho, rillQltrJc- ki i. ..." r. wtib v- uui vao, uui it was very colourful and they played the anthems nicely. . . . Yes, the South has a separate one. ... Then the boys came back on, but out of fifty or sixty only eleven from each side actually started to play. "What happened next is hard looked a bit like Rugby League, except that they could throw the ball forward. They stopped every few seconds, and players kept running on and off the field and having little ' conferences about what to do " next. But these don't seem to have been always successful as a boy would run a dozen yards backwards to go ten yards forwards, with the oth ers pushing one another all over the grass, and then he'd fall over, and two men with chequered markers would come out to measure some thing. I think I saw some scores, but they stopped be fore they reached the goal-line Several Examinations Credited To i OTE's:: b By ED SCHWARTZ WASHINGTON (CPS) "Wind-up dolls have had their day; magazine hybrids never got started; "would you be lieve" has been run into the ground it's time for some thing new. With some finals just past, a new rhetorical pasttime suggests itself ex ams for the examined. "The examined" are those whose foibles are on the collective lips of the ration. The exams are designed to represent those foibles. The following are sev eral to get the ball rolling: The Hubert Humphrey ex am: You start off with an orig inal thesis, but end by repeat ing the lectures verbatim. The Bob Dylan exam: Good answers, but you can't read the handwriting. The William Manchester ex am: You have to cross out half the essay. The Warren Commission exam: Convincing at first glance, but tends to fall apart on second reading. The Stokely Carmichael ex am: Most of the class flunks. The George Hamilton II exam: Youl flunk the exam, DAILY CROSSWORD ACROSS 1. Game of chance 5. Polar or brown 9. Firm 10. Terrible 12. Non-paying profession 13. Lace again 14. Ripen, as cheese 15.

Hu bert discovered they got one point for the kick. And do you know, dear, they had four ref erees! But the crowd didn't in sult them as they do at the Wembly soccer games, though a trainer on the touchline shouted something rude once when the referees lost count of something in the play. "It was funny about the crowd. Hubert had his little flask that he takes to Twick enham on a cold day, but he didn't need it there as the tem perature was over seventy, and in fact they kept on bringing round iced drinks. (Actually, one reason why I get confused about the game is that I spent to much time passing drinks and change to concentrate.) Yet all the spectators near us were pouring liquor out of hid den bottles into the paper cups. The police didn't seem to both er them, so I asked Hubert what all the secrecy was about, and why they couldn't go to the bar at half-time in stead. He laughed and showed me the ticket: NO intoxicants "And another thing about the crowd. Each team had a boy with a microphone, and some pretty girls, and they told us what to shout, and when. Most of the shouts came when the boys were at their conferences, not when they were playing. Hubert thought this showed what a silly game it was. He said some of the players were not on the field two minutes the whole match, and then they have all that padding, not like rugby where they keep playing, unprotected, for al most one and one-half hours. It looked rough enough to me; the tackling was hard, the heat was great, and the boys were heavy and fast to. But Hubert grumbled for days about the money. He said he could have seen England against France, not a pack of college boys, for a dollar and a half. ... "But isn't it odd to see girls in heels and boys in suits and ties at a football match?" but get an "A" in the course. The Adam Clayton Powell exam: You get caught cheat ing. The TIME Magazine exam: Your style is entertaining, but your content is distorted. The Cassius Clay exam: You get sidetracked by answers which have nothing to do with the course. The Ronald Reagan exam: The same exam given in two different courses. The Dean Rusk exam: You repeat the same answers over and over again. The Beatles exam: You scream as soon as you see it. The Robert. Kennedy exam: Pretty good, but not nearly as good as the last one. The Johnny Carson exam: The professor interrupts you every ten minutes for further instructions. The George Romney exam: You decline to answer the most difficult questions. The Students for a Demo cratic Society exam: You at tack the professor's sex life. The Bill Movers exam: You shot your bolt on the first two questions and leave early. 22. Swing music 23. Stable 24. Tambourine 25. Sale notices 26. Soak flax 28. Statute 30.

It wasn't so long ago that administrators and stu dents of southern white colleges fought tooth and nail to keep out Negroes. While most universities todav are stm reluctant Achievement awards are being offered scholarships worth up to $15,000 over four years to go to predomi nant white colleges." Some Negro high school sen iors report getting scholarship offers from 20 to 40 white schools. This is all very good, of course, hut it still is not enough. The fact is, as one Negro educator points out, that "if you're Negro you still have to be better than the best to be admitted to the white schools. And that leaves the Negro schools with all the risk students all of those who need some type of remedial work." Before one can really speak of an integrated sys tem of higher education in the South, the predominant white colleges must be willing to accept not only the brightest Negroes but also those with the same ability as the average white students.

C. (CPS) Freshmen who have poor grades and participate in few campus activities are also likely to be smokers, a re cent University of Illinois stu dy has shown.
