The Ministerial Association, as ou
know, is composed of students who
are studying for the ministry, relig
ious education, mission field, Bible
teaching and other fields of religious
sei'vice. This eyar there are 35 mem
bers of this organization.
Activities of the Ministerial Asso
ciation consist of the regular Monday
night meetings, the monthly social
and the yearly banquet. Plans are'
underway for the annual event.
An ellort is being made to give
_'ach person some training in the
Monday evening meetings by intro-
ducing phases of interest and work
with which the individual will dsal
■'hen he goes into his field. Pro
grams, thus far, have been on “Wor
ship in the Church.” Topics under
this were “Symbois in Worship”,
“Music in Worship”, and “Prayer in
Worship.”
An original play written by Dr.
Ferris Reynolds was presented which
illustrated how symbols are used as
a part of our worship. Mr. Fletcher
Moore, of the Music Department,
save the group valuable information
on the type of music that should be
used in the service of worship, and
Dr. Dollar spoke on how prayer and
meditation are also vitally import-
nt.
Two meetings were under the di
rection of members of the group.
Bland Leebrick and Donald Brown
led in a program illustrating music
in worship. The last meeting in thi;
series was a candlelight service pre
pared and presented by Bill Seott.

Ed. note: While your Day Student
Dood.er is convalescing from a rath
er sudden operation he has given
over this column to Ed Moss. That
operation must have been more ser

With the fanatical zeal of Archie,
:he educated cockroach, we plunge
mto the doings of the day students
during the past week and come up
A’ith a couple of items. Mile. Tickle
3f Burlington and M. Stanley, of
Jreensboi'o, have their own Monday
•orriing quarterback session before
he 8 o’clock French class. The ganii
fhey discussed last week was the
jiuriington - Greensboro clash heifi
.:t Eion. Mile. Tickle came in beam
ing with delight over the victory of
her team while M. Stanley admittec
chat his team was beaten in a man
ner which was no discredit to -tht
ireensboro team.
M. G. Burke, one of the day stud-
ant reporters, writes in to offer his
congratulations to Editor John Wai
.son for his timely editorial in the !as
issue of the Maroon and Gold. “Mor
power to you, John,” says M. G
'Give us more like that.”
The day students are proud to
claim as members of their organiza
tion Ed Nash and Henry Richards.
A'ho gave such fine performances as
David and Fritz in the Elon Players'
/roduction of “Claudia”. We would
ike to see all the day students take
1 more active part in the activitic:’
lere at school.
Bob Neese relates that times were
0 hard in Washington last Summer
le overheard one golddigger com-
slain that, “It’s a long time between
minks.” A bubble gum manufactur-
?r has announced that his product
:an now be obtained in six delightful
loiors. By combining two pieces of
lifferent colors one can obtain mos*^
ny shade one desires. Science is
ruJy wonderful.
An article which appeared in loca-
papers this week stated that the
United States would be comprised of
1 race of morons by the year 2003
D. Only a few intellectuals will
be left to rule the masses, according
‘o the newstory. Some of the pro.t’es-
:ors at Elon will probably agree with
‘he writer of the article when they
'inish grading examination papers
Orly they v/ill probably set the date
ip a few years.
A query from Ladies Hall as to the
vhereabouts of Joe Westmoreland
luring the past few weeks has just
ome in by carrier pigeon.
Max should be back by the time
he Maroon and Gold goes to press
^gain. If he has nothing else to write
'bout he can tell about his operation.
Several Speakers
Address The LR.C.
Miss Mary Walker, head of relig
ious education at Elon College, spoke
before IRC members and faculty on
Monday night, October 10th, in So
ciety Hall. Miss Walker delighted
her listeners with an account of Alas
ka, from which she has returned af
ter twp years teaching and traveling.
In describing the territory and its
people, Miss Walker observed that
nowhere had she seen a land more
characteristic of independence, per
sonified in the immortal poem, “The
Cremation of Sam McGee,” by Rob
ert W. Service. Refuting the “land
of the Eskimo” idea, she pointed out
that the white population is in pre
ponderance, and that Indians, Eski
mos, Chinese, and Japanese together
do not exceed the white people. Tog
there are towns, schools, and runnin
water in the. homes for those -vhr
have fears of the wild north. Ho^v
ever, this does not mean that thf
country is not rugged, evident by
the type work performed by the ma
jority of people. Fishing, not gold,
's the chief industry, and the pro-
luct of the fisheries is about equal
o the sum-total of all other Alaskan
products. Next in economic import
ance is forestry, then gold, and
lastly furs. Since only one railway
exists, transportation is carried c
mostly by plane.
In answering questions from the
floor, Miss Walker let it be known
that Alaskans are much more per
turbed over the Russian situatior
than most of their fellow Americ.2ns
Miss Walker finished her progrfm
by projecting her own color slido''
r.f Alaskan topography, explainin'
each picture and telling of her e^
oeriences in that particular localit.v

“Who are the enemies of demo
cracy?” This was the question posef
by Professor C. W. Paskins, asso
ciate professor of History and So
ciology at Elon, to International Re
lations Club members last Monday
night. Many of these enemies, e!ah
orated Professor Paskins, might bf
classified under four groups. The,
are: the Communists and fellow trav
elers, the hysterical anti-Commun-
Ists, the Fascists and fellow traveler
and the apathetic.
Dome.stically, the Communists can
not be done away with because o'
our own constitution. If the commun
ists are a professed political group
expressing political and economic
views, by law it is their right to
remain. If a religious group, agai
they are protected by law. However
if proven a tool of a foreign country
whose aim is to overthrow the go
ernment, then they might be expe’ier'
for treason, depending upon ne^'' in
terpretations of treason. Efforts t
establish these facts have resulted i
many investigations and anti-com
munists sentiments. If expellation if
possible, only legal means should b
employed in effecting such an
Internationally, the effects of Com
munism are evident in a stiffened U
S, foreign policy, spies are prepond
erant. and misunderstanding wide
spread.
Hj sterical anti-Communists are es
oecially dangerous, ssid Professor
Paskins, as theirs is the prosecution
of nearly all liberal groups wliosc
ideals may be anything but Commun
istic. This hysteria has the undesired
effect of driving questionable par
ties undercover, where their activit
ies cannot be observed.
Fascists and their fellow-travelers
may be identified generally as those
who champion ruthless strong-arm
methods to force their particular
brand of ideas and attitudes on oth
ers. Then there are those uncon
scious fellow travelers — anti-racists
and anti-laborites and those reaction
ary foes of all liberalism and pro-

gress.
Lastly, the apathetic group is dan
gerous because of its indiffeient at
titude. To overcome this, enlightened
public opinion, eternal vigilance
against intolerance, anti-racism, rack-
erteers in labor, and the protection
of our civil liberties should be strict
ly followed. Only by “cleaning house'
of prejudices and ignorance, fears
and insecurities, can we have a
workable political, economic, social,
religious, and intellectual democracy,
said Professor Paskins.
Elon College was well represented
at an Inter-Regional Conference oi
the International Relations Clubs,
held on November 14th and 15th
William and Mary College at Wiil-
iamsburg, Virginia. Seven members
and Dr. Hirch, the advisor for the,
local club, attended the conference
the theme of which was “Peace —
through a balance of Power of
World Government?”
After the opening general session
the delegates separated for their var
ious round tables. These specific top
ics were: “Can the U. N. in its pres
ent form keep the peace?”: “Can p
balance of power keep the neace?”:
"Federal world government,” and
“Can a federal world government
keep the peace?". Albert Haney of
the Elon delegation read a paper in
the first round table stating the be
lief of the majority of his delegation
in the ability of the U. N. to succeei.
Other members of the club who at
tended the meeting were: Virgin’a
Pla, Meir Gabbay, Mildred Hane>’,
Erreit Miller, Helen Miller and Nan--
cy Eller.
The delegation heard an address by
George Saute of the Institute on
World Government at Rollins Col
lege. He spoke on World Federalism
as an answer to what will keep Ihe
peace.
