JANUARY, 1966 THE COMPASS PAGE FIVE Have A Heart Week Joan C. Smith, President Student Activities Committee Lighthouse College Center The members of the Light house College Center had a mem bership drive January 6-13. 1966. The theme for the week was "Have A Heart”. Though the weelt has passed, we welcome any member of the College Com munity to join the committee of their choice. The committees of the Lighthouse College Center ire: Fine Arts, Forum, Hospital ity, Recreation and Social Dance. We ate soliciting to you—our' fellow coHeagues to "Have A Heart”, do your part, and share in helping to make the Lighthouse College Center, our Union, a bet ter one. If you have applied to one of the committees, and have not been notified, we ask your apology, because we have so many persons applying at the be ginning of the school year, your application may have been over looked. If you are in this sit uation, don’t just stop there; come to the Lighthouse Desk and ask for another application. We always welcome new members. We realized that all persons who applied, would not cooperate, but with a college enrollment of approximately 1,000 students^ you would think that out of 2% of (he population of college stu dents, we could get willing,mem bers, evenly distributed upon the committees in the Lighthouse College Center. We ask you to give just a few hours of your leisure time per month, to help us plan and present programs with variety and with quality. You have an attitude that the Lighthouse College Center is supposed to serve YOU at all times. When you’re in the canteen area or the lounge, there is little regard to the rules and regula tions, put there. This is a re minder—if you don’t have the time to spare to help us in our pro gram, please be considerate of others who are trying to make our Lighthouse College Center, at tractive and convenient for the College Community, their guests and friends. The programs and activities we present are for the College Family. When we invite you to come to our programs, it is not our benefit, but for your benefit, as well. Without the support of the Lighthouse College Members, and College Family, there can be no "Union”. "Have A Heart”, join a com mittee, and if you can’t join a committee, let us know that the Lighthouse College Center and its programs are useful. How? Participate, by supporting our programs by coming to them. We would like to feel that our ef forts are not in vain. WHO’S AFRAID OF RATS Treatise on Basketba 11 By A von Chapmen It is a considered opinion that the sport which requires ex ceptional agility and mental keen ess is basketball. This is the primary reason why it is called a spectator sport, because not every one can master it. Whether we, as spectators, should ever receive the opportunity to play the game or not, we should al ways have a basic knowledge of it, and be a component part in its activities where ever possible. Idealistically speaking, these athletes should be considered better than the average fumbling, tottering, incoherent idiot on the court. Realistically speaking, however, they have been very successful, because through bas ketball, they have been taught the hard way the art of teamwork and partnership with others They, as well as other individ uals, will ascertain from sports, the ability to compete with others, thus, retaining a basic pattern of cooperation. There is notable irony in basketball in that the players are punched, kicked, jumped upon, bruised, criticized, ex hausted, and still manage to walk away with 90 degree smiles on their faces. How lucky these player^ are, for they know that this game builds a good found ation for their mental, social, and moral growth in a crippled body! I don’t know how long my favorite sport would sustain its dignity If these sardonic remarks were acknowledged, but "What is an art without criticism?” Maybe an inconsequential dream that 1 was once an ostentious basket ball celebrity has brought about my admiration for the game, and has enforced within me a full comprehension of its total ob jectives. What about you?
