NUMBER FIVE
Collegiate Motion Defeated
A motion stating “that the Execu
tive Board recommend to Mr. Mil
ton Rogerson and the Publicity
Committee to look into the possi
bility to have someone to oversee
and advise the editor and the staff
of the Atlantic Christian College
newspaper, The Collegiate,” was de
feated by a nine to six vote at the
Monday night meeting of the Execu
tive Board. j
The motion was made by David j
Webb, Junior Class President, who!
felt that a cartoon and an editoria’ |
appearing in last week's Collestiate |
was a personal attack against him
and other individual members of the
Board. Webb proceeded to read a
statement which charged that a col

Students Urged
To Use Placement
Service At ACC
A college placement service has
been established at Atlantic Chris
tian College with Robert J. Washer
as director. Washer is also Dean of
Men at ACC and his office will
serve as a joint facility for both
the placement service and the of
fice of Dean of Men.
All Seniors are urged to register
immediately for this service which
will be primarily concerned with
notifying graduating students of job
opportunities for both teaching and
non-teaching professions. “This ser
vice is free for students and alum
ni and can also be used as a refer
ence for propsective occupations,”
Washer notes.
In the past placement services at
ACC have been handled by the
various academic departments. All
departments are now under one cen
tralized service.
Among services offered to stu
dents by this newly formed place-
ment agency are personal inter
views with the director of place
ment during office hours, the avail
ability of descriptive literature and
applications on organizations and
school systems, and the mailing of
student credentials to prospective accems

Such was the case during the
Stage and Script presentation of
Goldsmith’s “She Stoops to Con
quer.” This club is fortunate indeed
to be able to call on the talents of
such actors as George Farr and
Fred Barber. Their background in
acting is evident from the compe
tent manner in which they carried
their respective roles.
If anyone else but Penny Kirk had
been cast as Mrs. Hardcastle, this
character would definetely have lost
much of its power. Her contribu
tion was invaluable to the success
of the play.
It would be hard to decide as to
who should be cited for giving the
best all around performance. It is
certain that Maureen Ryan would
be foremost in this competition. A
relatively new member of the dra
ma club, the quality of her projec
tion was above reproach. The au
dience found this quality of great
value in following the chain of
events.
The programs for this perfor
mance, which was sponsosed by
the Wilson Kiwanis Club, were more
impressive than past programs.
The recorded music was effective
in setting the mood and period of
the play, but its effectiveness was
weakened in that the volume was
often too loud. Perhaps greater use
of the organ, as live music, should
be made at future performances.
Possibily the most prevalent criti
cism of the performance is the gen
erally mediocre quality of projection.
Certainly the 18th Century English
accents were necessary, but many
Cheerleaders Are Elected

Three Attend
Design Meeting
In Atlanta, Ga.
Three of Atlantic Christian Col-
lete’s administrative officers. Dr.
L. H. Swindell Jr., dean of the
college, Robert E. Bennett, dean of
students and Otis M. Coefield, head
librarian, attended a college design
seminar in Atlanta, Ga. last Monday
and Tuesday.
The seminar was sponsored by
the School Facilities Council; In
stitute for Higher Education, The
University of Georgia; and the
School Planning Labratory, The
University of Tennessee.
One of the major concerns of
college and university administra
tors and planners is the campus
building program. With more stu
dents, more faculty, and more au
tomobiles, few administrative of -
ficials can escape the demanding
and sometimes excruciating problem
associated with campus planning.
While attending the seminar, the
group took part in discussions re
lated to programs, building, environ
ment and equipment.
lege selected four veteran cheer -
leaders and four new members to
comprise the 1964-65 ACC cheer-
leading squad.
The returning veterans of last
year’s squad who were re-elected
are; Gina Allen, A Senior from
FarmviUe, N. C.; Lynda Burgess, a
Senior from Niagara Fall, New York
Janice Cousins, an Senior from
Murrell’s Inlet, South Carolina; and
Reba Barefoot, a Junior from Dunn,
N. C.
The new members added to the
squad are: Sandra Bass, a Junior
from Nashville, N. C.; Betty Brin
son, a Junior from Mt. Rainier,
Maryland; Vicki Joyner, a sopho
more from Durham, N. C.; and
Vivian Tonn, a freshman from Dur
ham, N. C.
The head cherleader is Kathryn
Webb, a Junior from Wilson. She
was elected in a campus-wide elec
tion last spring.
Dwight Wagner, Richard Surles and
Sammy Jones, had conspired to
print sarcastic and biased state
ments misrepresentmg him and oth
er members of the Executive Board.
Following the statement a very
heated debate took place. Dw’ight
Wagner, assistant editor of The Col
legiate, stated at the board meeting
the position of the student news
paper on the matter.
Wagner said, “Tlie cartoon and
editorial had only been offered in
the line of constructive criticism,
and in no way were they meant to
depict personal members of the
Executive Board.” He further point
ed out to the board that a motion
such as this one was one of the
most flagrant violations possible
against a democratic form of gov
ernment. He said, “It is essential
for a newspaper not to be censored
in any way in order that it might
act as a check and balance on the
government.”
The debate continued for some 30
minutes before the motion came up
for a vote.
At the beginning of the meeting
President Lee Horne made the fol
lowing statement to the board:
“Board members, we have been
called by The Collegiate a board
that is becoming a rubber stamp on
too many issues, and that by and
large individual members have not
used their good minds to express
personal opinions, but have merely
voted. Also, that we don’t have the
ability to regulate and discipline our
selves through the exercise of rea
son.
“This is our eighth meeting since
our elections. Now is the time to
evaluate ourselves in light of our
responsibilities as responsible lead
ers. If we were to write our evalua
tion as to — ‘How have I represent
ed my fellow students as their lead
er?’ we might fall short of our ex
pectations.
“Why?
“Is it because we are passive and
complacent? Have we shown the
initiative that is needed? In examin-
