HAVe THEl’OTF^KEN R&aiN?’ Letters To The Editor: Unfortunately, in recent weeks we at St. Mary’s have not expressed con sideration either for our guests or for our own chaplin. The N.C. State College Glee Club visited our campus a few weeks ago and the audience response, comments, and attitude on the whole were poor. Nervous coughs, whispers, giggles, and clapping hefore the perform ance were absolutely rude, and disrespectful. Those who wished to listen to the program were annoyed by the childish reactions of those who were defiant because they were required to attend. The immature students who displayed such poor conduct gave an unfavorable impression to the visitors in the audience and the visitors on the stage. How often did we stop to think that the State boys may have had tests the next day t^r Maybe they did not enjoy giving a “required” concert, especially to girls who do not show them the courtesy of being quiet during their performance. Daily chapel services are traditional at St. Mary s. Dr. Guerry has tried to make chapel not a compulsory nuisance but a corporate experience which is wanted by the student body. As in the past Dr. Guerry keeps the services short so that we will have plenty of time to get our mail. There is a disre spectful attitude evident in the way students dash in during the first hymn, slam the prayer books down, and whisper between the pews. Surely our discussions can wait. Dr. Guerry has shown us the courtesy of limiting the length of the chapel services. Why can’t we show him courtesy and give due respect to a place of worship? ^ ^ ^ ^ K R T STATE THEATRE Nov. 18—Topkapi - starring Melina Mercuri and Maximillin Schell. Nov. 2 6—Send Me No Flowers- starring Doris Day and Rock Hudson. Dec. 10—Invitation to a (lUntigiit. Personality Focus By Pat Van Lear Personality (pur’ su • nal’ i • ti): in- dividuality; magnetic personal qual ity (Webster’s ISIew Collegiate Die- tionary(). When one speaks of personality, is is usually in the above terms, as suming that an individual does or does not have “personality”. Gorrect- ly speaking, however, everyone has a personality; it is the sum of ones structures, modes of behavior, id' terests, attitudes, abilities, and apO' tudes. It seems appropriate at this time to discuss the personalities ot two men; Nikita S. Khrushchev and Lyndon B. Johnson. Today these two men are on the opposite ends of the power scale in their respective countries. Khru shchev was recently obliged to retire as First Party Secretary and Premier of the U.S.S.R., while Johnson was elected as President of the United States. Disregarding the environ mental circumstances, what caused the success of one and the failure o another? Many reasons have been given concerning the decline of KhrU shchev in the eyes of the party: th® rift with Red Ghina, a policy ° “pieaceful coexistence,” an unsuccess ful agricultural program. The la remains that the Party Gentral Coin mittee charged Khrushchev person ally for “clowning, boorishness, sfio pxDunding . . .” In short, the Premier had formed a “cult of Pf sonality”. Setting oneself up as an in dividual is getting away from J ideal Russian situation; thus ^nr shchev’s leadership style cost linn, career. Conversely, perhaps Jn, son’s “cult of personality” won m his career. , J In a country so vast as the 1-ln’ States, even with modern transp^jj ration and communication, it won be impiossible for every American know Johnson personally. The'" Johnson by his appearances ann j i jgg- dent—vetoing or recommending islation, granting pardons an There are many deadlines at St. Mary’s — publication deadlines, test deadlines, theme deadlines, and the deadline set for the faculty regarding quarter and semester grades. This letter concerns the last one. Whenever a deadline is set, most of us note the date, calculate the time, and then sit back and let procrastination take over. Teachers often accuse the students of falling prey to pirocrastination, but for once, as a student I feel that I ha\e the grounds to turn the tables. As of late, a large number of students have repeatedly complained of the fact that a few of the faculty members have become unreasonably slow in grading tests. Although it is certain that overwork, lack of time, and unforeseen problems are leading factors in this case, it is m\’ contention that simple procrastination is the key fault.

The faculty, on the other hand, receives no more than a patient shrug and a dirty look when they give a reading assignment to their classes and then make a bee line for the Faculty House to grade already late papers. I am reprimanded when I am unprepared because it is my respionsibility to my teacher to do my work; does this not work both ways? I realize that teaching is not an easy job and that it is ver\’ time-consum ing and often nerve-wracking, but we students work hard.
