ATLANTIC CHRISTIAN COLLEGE, OCTOBER 30, 1964
NUMBER SIX
By DWIGHT WAGNER
Representative L. H
spoke Tuesday night at Atlantic
Christian College in Howard Chapel
He was here at the request of the
Y.D.C., and said that he was glad
to have the opportunity to speak to
the students.
In his speech Rep. Fountain stress
ed the responsibilities that citizens
have in making the best govern
ment possible, and the fact that
young people are becoming more
and more active in politics.
He went on to point out that
politics and the parties are what
we the people make of them, and
that government is good or bad in
proportion to the good or bad peo
ple who take an interest in it. He
said that we have to be active in
government all the time in order to
avoid the take over by the few. He
hoped that students would contin
ue to participte in politics, but that
they should always be honest, to hit
hard, but to always be fair and
clean.
In his finishing remarks Foun
tain said that we are living in a
dangerous time when we must be
strong and use wisdom in the hand
ling of nuclear weapons, and that
President Johnson was such a man
who could do this. He concluded
by saying that the strength of Amer
ica resides in the hearts and spirits
of Americans and wOl never leave
us with the continuance of Chris
tian education.
There was one feature of Rep.
Fountain’s visit which reflected very
poorly on Atlantic Christian College.
This was due to the lack of stu
dents who attended. If we can say
that an audience of about forty stu
dents is proper for the visit of a
U. S. Congressman then we are
indeed in a sad situation. It is not
without significance that the very
things Rep. Fountain said we must
do, were so obviously rejected by
A. C. students. The apathy surround
ing these things, such as being in
formed, and taking an interest in
government must be overcome by
A. C. students if We are to be the
“good citizens” who decide the fate
of America.

THE WINNER—It isn’t this donkey, but the Y.D.C. and Betty Brin
son thought that a real live symbol of their party might be just
the trick needed to bring victory to LBJ. Wonder what he thinks
of all this?

ganizations was held on campus
Tuesday, October 27, by Dean Rob

the Student Life Committee.
The purpose of this meeting was
to inform the organizations of the
Student Life Committee’s newly

Generally, the Student Life Com

Each organization is limited to
one mcjor campus social function
per semester and two minor social

President David Webb and other
members of his class, who invest
ed much time and energy, are
to be congratulated for the stimu
lation of campus interest in state
and national political affairs.
The participation in the election
was evidence of the significant
part played by the YDC and the
VRC. A total of 856 persons cast
their ballots during the two days
the polls were open.
In the battle for governorship
of North Carolina, Dan Moore
led with 465 votes. Robert Gavin
ran a close second with 367 votes.
L. Richardson Preyer slipped
through with 4 write-in votes. Our
own Dr. C. H. Hamlin was
also a write-in.
The results of the competition
for President and Vice-President
was more decisive than that for
governor of N. C. Johnson and
Humphrey had an easy win with
514 votes as compared with 342
Gcldwater - Miller votes. A notor
ious Alfred E. Newman received
one wrie-in vote for President.

the elections to the Democrats on
the hard-earned victory. The YRC
will keep striving for the Novem
ber 3rd election of Barry Gold-
water and Bob Gavin,”
Paul Donnelly, president of the
YDC, reports that, “We are very
happy. I am sure that we could
not have won had not the YDC
members contributed so freely
their time and efforts. Thanks es
pecially to Gordon Mercer, Kirk
Kembro and Bob Hardister whose
ideas were invaluable. We must
not stop until our victory celebra
tion next Wednesday night.”

HONOR GROUP—Above are 15 of the 18 students who were inducted into The Golden Knot Honor Society

monts which stressed more than academic excellence, but also emphasized outstanding moral char
s' a^d constructive leadership.
Dean Bennett reported that only
limited action was possible at this
time with regards to the tele -
phone situation in the dormitories.
He said that on the present
telephone system only one addit
ional phone can be added, and that
it is felt that priority should go
to Harper Hall if an additional
phone is installed.
David Webb. Junior class presi
dent, moved to amend the rules
of procedure in describing the
duties of the corresponding sec
retary. The change made would
allow any member of the student
body, and not just a member of
the Executive Board, to hold this
position. He pointed out that this
would give students more of an
opportunity to work with the gov
ernment. The motion passed.
Yates Miller, freshmen presi
dent, moved that a committee be
appointed to investigate the cut
ting up in line in the cafeteria. A
motion was made to tableMii-

of the board in order that reports
from last year dealing with this
matter could be investigated.
Brent Hill reported that James
Cobb had informed him that the
“Swingle Singers” from Paris,
France, would be able to appear
at AC in early November at a
reduced fee. Gina Allen moved
that the board underwriting $1,000
of the $1,250 fee. A motion was
made to table the matter until
the next day when a special meet
ing would be called after further
investigation.
