^Editor Notes Change
To the Students of St. Andrews;
Due to the peculiar nature of the universe, it is necessary for
the annual staff to submit the annual to the publisher in February
In order for the book to be distributed before graduation. This
process makes it impossible for us to include much or any ma-
terlal for the second semester.
After much consideration, we have come to believe that an
X annual should Include the entire school year. Such a book, we
feel, would be much more valuable In future years to the seniors.
We feel that the contents of the book are more important than
when it comes out. We are therefore planning to Include the entire
V school year in the 1970 "Lamp and Shield*', which will delay
distribution of the book until September. While we regret the
necessity of this delay, we feel that the sacrifice of speed for
content Is worthwhile.
X Returning students will receive their annuals at school in
$ September. The annuals will be mailed to the homes of graduat-
ing seniors and transferring students. We hope that the student
body will see the value in this change of procedure and will
agree with our decision.
X Ellen Richardson, Editor 1970 Lamp and Shield
P.S. Any senior who wishes to have his annual mailed to an
address other than his present home address may place his new
address in Box 144, Campus Mall.
Mexican Collage
Shared By Visitor
by RICHARD BEACH
On January 3, 1970 Dr. David
McLean and his band of some
thirty-odd (and I do mean odd)
students, tourists, archaeolo
gists, shutter bugs and Flo
rence Nightingale (cleverly dis
guised as Mrs. Ruth Wetmore)
arrived in Mexico City. The
group was to spend a short,
but fascinating month touring
Meso-american ruins from
Teotlhuacan to Chichen Itza to
Monte Alban.
Mexico City’s 7 million peo
ple greeted the group In about
7 million cars, buses, and on
bicycles. (New York cabbies are
like little old ladies compared
to Mexico City’s taxi drivers.)
Mexico City, the home of many
rich-but many more who are
not so rich. Little kids selling
balloons-—Little kids of 3 or 4
who probably make more money
than their fathers. The Pago
Pago - The French singer -
Yom Yom box lunches - the
floating gardens - (ask Mar
garet Hudson about the bull
fights) - the new subway- the
incomparable Hotel Castropol.
This is but an Incomplete col
lege of Mexico City — espe
cially without mention of Cha-
pultepec Park (grasshopper
hill) or the indescribable Mu
seum of Anthropology.
From Mexico City the whole
group headed for Merida, Yu-
catan-by bus - for 24 hours...
Montezuma Included! Upon ar
riving in Merida for a week -
Doug Lane began a one-man
campaign against local bars by
establishing the ‘‘bridge over
Bacardi Party.” While in
Merida the group got their first
taste of the market places, the
beautiful Gulf of Mexico
beaches, Mexican hospitality,
and some unforgettable remin-

Security Enforced
(Continued from page 1)
of six Laurinburg Institute stu
dents by the Laurinburg police.
Found in the possession of the
six was a gold watch with a lea
ther band, a switch-blade knife,
fifty odd dollars In cash and
some Mexican money corres
ponding to a list of articles
missing from Winston-Salem
and Mecklenburg dormitories.
Arrested at approximately 11:45
p.m., they were questioned and
confessions from the students
were obtained that same ni^t.
Chief of Security, Mr. ReVllle,
noted that the students were
charged with trespassing re
duced from larceny because of
their age and records. A trial
In District Court on February
24 resulted in a sixty day sus
pended sentence on the provi
sion that they not enter the SA
campus without written permis
sion or break any law for a
period of two years.
Mr. ReVille also .reported
that a man accused of assault
last November did not appear
for trial and Is in probable
residence In South Carolina.
A capias has been issued which
calls for his arrest If he is
found within this county.

Elections Need Students ;
Campaigns Begin Sunday
by HOLLACE LAWS
The self-nomination period
for offices in St. Andrews’ Stu
dent Association began March 2
and will continue through March
6 at 5:00 p.m. This year once
again there is a desperate need
for students who will offer their
time and energy to the perpe
tuation of student government.
There are many students on
this campus who have the ideas,
the energy and the sense of
responsibility that could make
student government an invalu
able part of our campus life;
yet, these people seem willing
to “pass the buck” on to the
“usual” people who are an
nually elected to a position In
student government. This only
creates a static student govern
ment and serves only to re
locate the same people and the
same ideas within the structure
of the Association.
If you have the grade point
average which is required to
hold a student Association of
fice (2.00, C average) con
sider your student government.
It represents the students of
this community and your voice
will be heard only If you elect
competent people who have
taken the initiative to run and
recognize the responsibilities
of the office or if you evaluate
your own potential and take the
initiative to self-nominate for
the position of your choice.
Campaigning for the offices of
the Student Association will be
gin Sunday, March 8 at 2 p.m.
and will continue through Sunday
March 15 at 11 p.m. Voting will
be held March 16 from 11 a.m.
until 7 p.m. in the residence
halls. Any student who needs to
vote by absentee ballot must
contact Winston Hensley or
Dixie Fulton by Thursday March
12 by 11 p.m.
If you have any questions
about elections or a specific of
fice that you are considering,
contact our elections board
member. The board is: Winston
Hensley, Chairman, Dixie Ful
ton, Steve Gibbs, Chris Heppe,
David Berry, Hollace Laws,
Martha James, Mary Jo Trice,
and Dean Leake.
