A positive vote to a question recently asked in a survey indicates that students are not satisfied with their attitudes. Sixty five percent of those polled admit that a hl^ school attitude prevails at SCC. According to the survey cheerleaders are reflecting tliis attitude in their performances at sports activities. Another indicator that an atmosphere of change prevails is that many students are now urging formation of an organization that will booster school spirit. Thirty two percent commenting on this ques tion think that a booster’s club shoidd be formed. Many others desire to see an increase In school spirit. Members of the administration and the faculty are sympathic to students expressing different opinions results of the survey indicate. Most stu dents agree that the administration and the faculty are setting the proper tone for a college atmosphere. Two questions relevant tothese comments received 64 and 65 percent in the affirmative column. How ever. one student chose this opportunity to express the following comment. "There are some faculty members who I feel need to Improve their methods of t Pfl.chtn0> ^ ^ Among the new organizations or clubs suggested are Spanish, drama, debating, and an entertainment club. Football was mentioned by three or four students. Only forty one percent of those voicing their opinion believe the Psychology of Learning course is effective.

A Pigpen Of Litter Don’t Drag Those Feet! students of Southeastern are still suffering from the sanie old problem—dragging their feet in needed projects. Stiwents were asked to design an official seal for SCC. Did they do it. (One person came up with a design! The latest victims of this* foot dragging are the Drama Club and the Yearbook planned for next year* The Drama Club is planning the production of “The Fantasticks.” A meeting was scheduled on Wednesday, January 10 at 7:30 p.m. to discuss these plans with interested students. A fantastic num ber showed up—two faculty members and one student! With a Off fit like that, the play should indeed be “fantastic!” Admltte^y all students cannot act but there are various other jobs Involved in the production of a play that many students could participate in. Your talent is needed—it may prove to be more fun than you know. Why not give it a try students of SCC! What happened to the yearbook plans? In fact, are there any plans at all? Last year students expressed an interest in a y^r- book for the 67-68 academic year. NOTHING HAPPENEDI This year students have again expressed an interest in having a year^ok for the 68-69 academic year. At this time, NOTHING IS HAP PENING concerning those plans. If Southeastern wants a year book next year, plans for its publication must begin now. A commW- tee should be set up no later than the Spring Quarter. Is South^st- ern going to drag its feet again? If the students want a yearbook, the students will have to get the tell r°ll^ K’s to^^ students of SCCI Do you or don’t you want a yearbook at SCC?

The Other Side Richard Hayes The derailment of atrainloaa- ed with high explosives in Chad- boum, the subsequent evacin- tlon of the town, and the bad weather have produced some colorful conversations recently. Chadbourn weatherman; “There will be a slight overcast tomorrow, temperatures ranging in the 30’s, with a chance of moderate to heavy explosions throughout the day." Outraged citizen: “Ban the bomb and reopen the ABC store!” Optimist: “If that stuff ex plodes, it would blow Chadbourn off the fcice of the earth, but at least it would put it on the map.” Another one: “A crater left from the explosion would make a great tourist attraction. We could call it Boomtown.” Worried: “I hope the ABC store has a bomb shelter.” Opportunist; “Would anyone like to buy a slightly damaged crate of mortar rounds?” Evacuee: "Man, I’d never left home without my tr\isty six pack.” Girl in miniskirt: "Ican’tleave In this weather; I’ll catch double kneemonia.” Old timer: “Aw, it ain’t noth ing.
