FEBRUARY 10, 1966 LANCE l.C.B. Provides iampus Fun “(Edwina” Butterworth at Work fVhat? Who? What or who is the S, C. B.? Well, the Initials don't stand for a meeting place or a club. They stand for a par. ticular branch of yo^j student government which exist for your ^oyment. Yes, when the pres- ^res are bad and your stabi lity is threatened by a critical e|say or a math test you can count on the S. C. B. to provide some kind of distraction you’ll thoroughly enjoy and at the same time avoid those distressing pro. blems of life. ^hat kind of enjoyment does the S. C. B. provide? Almost anything! Back in September (if ypu can remember that far back) the S. C, B. sponsored an Open House in which all the various clubs and organizations on oampus got to display all their p§)paganda to both Freshmen and Upperclassmen in, an effort to get everybody interested in ^rticipating in our campus life. lAter that month as everybody settled down to C and C and get ting out of bed at 6:30 A.M. the S, |C. B. pulled out its projector and showed their first award vjming re-rua of the year, 'Requiem far a Heavy Weight.” About the time all the Freshman Bade their first exodus from ampus the S.C.B. showed their ^cond award winning re-run ’ortrait of Jennie.” Then it ppened, Fall Fling . the first big dance of the year. Two "Magnificent” bands played one I on Friday, October 22 for Andre • a . Go . Go and the other rocking out with the ”Tams” on Saturday. That same Saturday Granville romped Albemarle in an exciting and action packed game of touch football while their favorite “hpauties” cheered them,on. To break the monotony of those last few days before mid. semester exams, the s. c. B. showed “Roman Holiday” with Suzanne Pleshette and Troy Don. ahue. This successfully dis tracted our thoughts from C and C exams, term papers, and logic math. After five days of blissful Thanksgiving and our first free Saturday, the s. C, B. softened the blow of returning to that six day a week grind by showing “Anastasia” with Yul Brynner and Ingrid Bergman. Later in December the S. c. B. announced the Christmas dance which was scheduled for December 11. The State Contin. entals played to the theme “Winter Wonderland.” During the last week before the long awaited Christmas break, while the dorms were hurriedly trying to get into the Christmas spirit or at least look as though they had, the S. C. B, had another open house to provide refresh, ments for all the weary wanders who decided to go see the campus decoration and try to out.guess the judges. Also that week, the S. C. B. had a "sit down” Christmas dinner when everybody dressed in their Sunday best and enjoyed their next to last cafeteria din ner before the holidays. To welcome the rested student back to St. Andrews in January, the S. C. B. sponsored a dance featuring Maurice Williams and the “Zodiacs” (along with an un. expected performer). Concluding the first semester in fine style was the movie,v “Lust for Life.” Second semester activities for the S. C. B. got underway last Saturday night with the showing of Charade. Up coming events sponsored by the S. C. B, include an Ice Cream Party this Saturday night in the alcove from 8:30 to 10:30, four movies . “The Re luctant Debutant,” February 26, Calender Comments To Continue PAGE 7 The new school calender has I called reaction from students. Most students are not completely for It or against it, but have mixed feelings. The main points discussed by students are the following; exams will be over before Christmas • less reviewing will be necessary- students wiU be tired going into exams; no Saturday classes would help the new schedule; most stu dents will be doing less travel ing, for example during Thanks- g ving; students* summer jobs will be cut short; and it will be hard to find a job arriving home so near Christmas, Here are some of our students’ comments: John Provost remarks favor ably about the new calendar but says it would be better if there were more than one day break before Christmas holidays. Se. cond semester will be good, but going straight until Christmas will be hard, especially with sophomore C&C. Margaret Parrish likes having exams over before Christmas but thinks it bad not to have a break at Thanksgiving. It appears to Margaret to be crowding much material into too compact a time, making first semester strenuous. For freshmen who live far from St. Andrews, this will mean they will be unable to go home until after exams-.practically four months. Brenda Rackley and Duke Blake agree the calendar would be very good if there were no Saturday classes. Otherwise, going from the last of August un. til Christmas or the latter part of December will be too long with no real break. It will be very hard on those going to summer school to have to begin the fall term so early, Susan Tate comments that having exams over before Chris, tmas is the best part of the new calendar, Susan does not like having to go the whole first sem- ester without more than one day break from the routine six-day week. As it will with many other students, the new calendar means ,VAn American in Paris,” March 12; “Tea and Synopathy,” April 9; and “To Catch a Thief,” May 2 l.and, finally the formal dance of the year . SPRING FLING,' the weekend of April 16. HONEY CONE DRIVE IN For A Vanety of GOOD FOOD!

From this month of vacation, students Morgan con’t from page 1 ity, his interest, to those who needed these. For just a moment I would hope that you could call your valuing of detachment into question, in light of the life of this man whose influence so far surpassed what anyone could have expected. Because Mac had been a boy, and because he was the father of folks your age, he understood you in a way in which one cannot be taught from textbooks. He was a figure of authority who seldom had to use hiis authority.-..our respect for his person influenced us more than our fear of the ex. Dectations of institution and soc. iety which he was here to repres. ent. He had the wisdom to real, ize that men are not changed simply becaue their behavior is controlled by external autho. Titles. He knew that the influence of understanding and love was ,a greater molder of men than any sort of force. Force may control imen, but being trusted in a con. fident relationship often changes them. In knowing Mac Morgan, many of us have been so changed. My last conversation with Mac was like scores of others In which we simply enjoyed one another's company. He told me of a night when he stood in the dark inside the student center and watched some students attach a smoke- bomb to his car. After they h*id played their trick and hidden to watch for his response. Mac came out, got in the car, staled it, and jumped out and ran away when the device exploded. They never knew he was merely playing a role—he was mature enough that he didn’t need to tell them, Jt was enough that some guys had had some fun at his expense. You don’t meet many people like that. It appears today that there is little for which we can be thankful. There is a void in our community which will not be filled. Yet, even in our sense of loss there Is an awareness that we have gained Immensely from having known ^ac. Miss him and mourn him we wUl, and should, but forget him, we will not, and in time we will have a sense of completeness in our relationship with him which will qualify our sense of loss. It is important to grieve the loss of a friend. Not to express or ,even think about what we are feeling is only to postpone and in tensify our grief. As I have come to understand it^ each of us would do well to recall our memories of ^lac- to savor them for all their poignant fullness and to let those memories move us as we ought to be moved—and then to let them go. For this reason, is is appropriate that we meet here, where we were so accustomed to seeing Mac-coming and going, laughing, speaking, helping. To refrain from expression of what we feel is not to be brave, but foolish. What kind of adjective appro priately modifies Mac Morgan? He was a gentle ihan. He was an understanding man. He was a just man. He was a good man. Would that each of us could live as full and rich, and meaningful and influential life as his, Robert F, Davenport College Pastor Senior Koeiial ranges from depictive pieces, to the blues, to the use of the twelve tone series.
