“What America needs
not a new national purpose, but
a ‘renewed’ national purpose.”
t)n October 9, Richard L. Shelton,
editor of the “Shelby Daily Star,”
began his speech on our national
condition with the preceding
words.
Shelton, in discussing the alter-
ation of our national purpose,
paraphrased the opening words
of the Preamble of the Constitu
tion:
“We hold these truths to be
self-evident (at least, unless and
until they are overturned by the
Supreme Court or vetoed by the
Russians): that all men are cre
ated equal, must develop quality,
share eqiially in the riches of
the world and remain equal all
their lives whether they want to
or not; that they are endowed
by their Creator with certain un
alienable rights: that among
these rights are life, liberty, and
the pursuit of happiness — and
If men cannot find happiness by
pursuing it, it shall be the gov
ernment’s duty to deliver it to

what I was doing. I know now
that I was risking world peace,
and I am sorry. My superiors
were responsible.’
“This was Francis Powers, the
U-2 pilot, a $25,000 a year hero
talking.”
Our national fear of public
opinion has been at the base of
our most recent grave miscal
culations in judgment. In fact,
maintains Shelton, It “may lead
us to abandon our nation.”
Shelton concluded, emphasiz
ing that our generation most
probably will have the responsi
bility of re-establishing our na
tion’s high ideals; only thus will
we grow stronger “as one great
nation — under God — holding
high the standards of liberty and
justice for all — FOR ALL THE
WORLD.”

Hale died is now a reality and

Added To Park
Facilities to accommodate more
married students were added this
Bummer to Gardner-Webb’s "G.
I. Hill.” The additional accom
modations consist of eight used
house trailer units amounting in

These units were donated to
the College by a member of the
board of trustees of the College,'
A. T. Withrow of Charlotte. Al-

a temporary trailer nark, four

Hooners; and Robert Plummer.
Married students who own a
house trailer may also “set up
house” on G. I. Hill. The latest
addition to the trailer park Is
Don McSwaIn with his house

this past summer were Coach Bob Blackburn, Mrs. Bet

Discussion Held
The first of a series of group
discussions was held in the Ham
rick Building on Tuesday night,
October 17. This first discuss'on
was led by C. Allen Burris, pro
fessor of history, who contrasted
Communism with Christianity.
Throughout the year the B.S U.
will sponsor more discussion
groups, which will be led by
capable persons who have a nar-
ticular interest in the subject
under discussion.
Students who have a topic
which they would like to have
discussed are urged to contact
any member of the B.S.U. execu
tive council or Dean John Hiott.
Some suggested general cate
gories under which these specific
topics could fall incluf^e the
church, the Bible, social prob
lems, or world conflicts.
