Three Dog Night Will Appear
The official word has just
come from Hanz Piola, chair
man of the Assembly and
Concert Committee, that the
rumors are really true!
THE 3 DOG NIGHT WILL
APPEAR AT ACI Ringo, John,
Paul and George will begin a two
day blast at a special breakfast
for faculty members on April 5,
Students are asked not to crash
this special session in respect for
the faculty members who
subsidized the visit by the
English musicians.
Music will be continuous for
the two-day period, with the
Three Dog Night taking only 4
ten-minute breaks to unsnarl
their hair (it’s in the contract.)
Students will be excused from
classes but are asked to take
notes throughout the blowout.
These nots become the property
of the faculty and will not be
returned. Students are asked to
express themselves freely in
their note-taking so that the
faculty ay be able to share the
insight into the “ture self” which
is often brought to fore when the
Three Dog Night perform.
The blast will take place in the
gym. As the crowd will be quite
thick, students are requested not
to bring onion or garlic sand
wiches and to be sure to use that
Right Guard unsparingly. Tea
and crumpets will be on sale at
the door, but students are
requested not to crunch the
crumpets in a manner which
might distract others from the
n\ood set by the Three Dog
Nights' music.
A going-away present will be
presented to each of the Three
Dog Night. The girls at Pi Chi
Thi sorority, who are presenting
the awards, say that they are
presenting gold hair clips to the
musicians. Many are waiting to
hear from the girls after the
presentation. All are anxious to
hear a report on what only the
Three Dog Nights’ hairdresser
knows for sure.
New Dorm To Be Built
Twinkle Leaves
Students will be saddened to
learn that our own dear soda
shop owner, "Twinkley'’ will be
leaving this summer to assume
his new occupation as lead bass
for the Metropolitan Opera.
It was quite a shock to this
reporter, as he ordered a
hamburger and coffee (and
received a grilled cheese and
milk), to hear of “Twinkley’s”
new plans.
When asked why he was
planning to lave “Twinkley”
made several interesting
statements. He mentioned to this
reporter that it was getting even
harder to acquire the cigarette
ashes for that ‘‘little extra
something" in the coffee.
“Twinkley” also said that he had
been rather hurt by an unkind
ACC student who had demanded
another bowl of soup after fin
ding a cockroach in his first
bowl. “He hadn’t really drunk
that much,” explained
“Twinkley.”
“Twinkley” also mentioned
that some students were making
completely untrue statements
that he overcharged.
No Class
Until Easter
Recess
A recent news release from
Detroit, Michigan, said that the
construction firm of F. L. Wright
& Co. has singed a contract with
Atlantic Christian College for
the construction of a new men’s
dormitory.
F. L. Wright, president of the
company and also an architect
of some note, has designed the
building. Mr. Wright has had a
very successful career in
architecture having come under
the influence of the work of
Russell Barnold.
The building plan calls for four
floors, only one of which will be
above the ground. The other
three will be on subteranean
Letter To Editor (true)
Real
Ads
Dear Editor:
It was with considerable
pleasure that I first heard of the
decision by the Board of
Trustees to allow unlimited
hours for senior women and
later hours for others in the
future.
Let us hope that this is but the
first step in a positive direction.
All too long has this and other
colleges continued a practice of
forcing a dogmatic system upon
the students for the sake of the
system with its aims and goals,
which although noble, may not
be in the best interest of the
student.
I feel reasonably certain that
if one were to ask any member of
the Psychology Dept, what is the
best way to teach responsibility
all would agree it should be
given to the individual in
degrees as they are ready to
attempt to handle it. And that
the only way to learn respon
sibility is to exercise it.
However all to often in todays
system of higher education the
student is “properly main
tained” in the padded cell of
academic life. Then armed with
only a piece of paper and with
best wishes he is thrust out into a
world he knows a lot of facts
about but lacks a practical basic
and the social maturity to cope
with.
This not only fails to meet the
best interest of the student but is
contrary to the aims of Atlantic
Christian College as stated in the
catalogue.
By the time a student is a
senior nearning graduation any
rule that is felt necessary other
than those absolutely dictated by
society and the community in
which we live is an open ad
mission to failure. The college
has failed to produce the
maturity and the sense of
responsibility in the student that
it promised him as a freshman.
Why shouldn’t an up
perclassman be deemed mature
enough to know what time to
come in? Why shouldn’t an
upperclassman in good standing
be deemed capable of judging if
it is necessary to attend this or
that class on any given day?
Why shouldn’t the SGA be
considered responsible enough
to exercise more than token
power? Why shouldn’t students
be deemed capable of proper
behavior if they were to visit
each other in their dorms on a
Sunday afternoon?
These are all questions that
need to be answered by everyone
from the students up to the
Board of trustees. But more
important than any one of these
questions is the more basic
question. Has the student been
helped or has he been hurt by not
allowing these things.
Sincerely,
Colin Cowling, Jr.
levels so that the building will
have a ranch-style effect. Thisis
in keeping with the trend at ACC
of having all buildings different.
Construction will probably
start within the next week and
should be completed sometime
in August. A revolutionary
construction system will be used
in which all floor levels will be
built simultaneously at the
ground level and then the bottom
three will be lowered to the
desired level, Thisis the first
time this type construction will
have been used in N.C.
The top floor, (the only one
open to the general public) will
consist of a magnificent lounge,
ultra-modern rooms, and the
very best in fixtures and
funishings. This floor will house
the dean of men, two
housemothers, three faculty
members with their families,
and all senior men with a quality
point average of exactly 2.73.
The other three floors will
house the majority of men
students on campus and will
consist of 231 rooms each four
feet by seven. There will be
three boys in each room. Each
room will have one desk and will
be limited to one light. There will
be no doors but rather each room
will have six steel bars guarding
the entrance.
There will be a bed check
every night and lights must be
out by ten o’clock. The house
mothers will patrol the halls to
make sure that everything is
going smoothly.
