LITTLE'MAN ON'CAMPUS .... - AM. V. ■c UNTIL WE COW&'ZO ■m' n^SfKrn ^^o\.\x^\onrf/ Journalism Is Dead The era of the newspaper is at an end, and American journal ism, as it has been known for many years, is fast approaching its deathbed. A newspaper simply cannot keep up with radio and television. An evening paper, for example, finalized at 2:00 p.m. is obsolete at the 3:00 p.m. radio report or ancient history at the 6:30 p.m. tele vision newscasts. The direction being taken by journalism to combat this situation is an excellent one. The weekly newsmagazine is the answer. It provides detailed accounts of things other news media only skim. Those following world news in depth rely on radio and TV to keep abreast of latest events while newsmagazines supply them details, commentary, and interpretation. More and more the newspaper is forced to the local scene of dull reading—bridge club winners and jaycees’ benefit balls. Though the HILLTOP faces no serious competitors, it does have to deal with essentially the same problem. HILLTOP news is always two to three weeks old, simply because there is no technical way to produce it more often. The new Blackwell Building will eventually house a press which should allieviate some of the presently existing problems. American journalism, inevitably a reflection of the American people, has always had a penchant for fact at the sacrifice of opinion. The news-writer is to let nothing of personal feeling come into play. He is to be completely objective. The writer’s creativity is thus stifled. This and the foregoing problem have caused me to re-evaluate the concept of the HILLTOP. My new conception of the HILLTOP is that it should deal with more ite^ of general interest which are not dependent on a deadline. Progressively the HILLTOP should assume the format of a magazine. Next year, it may well be just that—a monthly magazine. —CEY fhe Mars Hill College Hillrop 4 February 1967 Vol. XLI, No. 8 Clarence E. Young Sports Editor L.

C. Published 15 times during the college year. Box 486-T, Mars Hill, N. C. 28754 PRESS pro and con Question: What do you think about our chapel services last semester? David Hopstetter—I believe that the chapel pro grams of this past semester have been, on the whole, the best since I have been at Mars Hill Col lege. The variety of programs has helped to make chapel more interesting, and I hope this will con tinue. Tom Ellington—I am not fully satisfied with the chapel programs because I believe we need more musical programs. I would like to hear speakers talk on more controversial topics. James Wiles—An effort should be made to try to secure better and more renowned speakers. I feel also that a reorganization in which students would have more to do in the planning of these programs would make them more interesting. Sharyn Russell—If we have to have a chapel period, each one should be planned well enough in advance so that it will be meaningful and not just some thing to fill up the time. One solution could be fewer but more well-rounded and meaningful pro grams. Jim Smith—Because Mars Hill College is an insti tution of Christian higher education, the students and faculty should be exposed to the highest caliber of speakers who convey a rich Christian philosophy of life. We can add more meaning to our chapel services if we have more speakers such as Dr. Bill Lancaster, Dr. Bill Smith, and Dr. Cecil Sherman. Queition: Do you think we are spending too much money on the space progrram? Louie Cox—The space program is important; how ever, our economy is and keeps going further in debt as a result of high expenditures. The United States has proved itself in the space program, and I hope will continue to do so. I do not believe in halfway jobs, but neither do I believe in spending ourselves into a situation of false competition with other countries. Our children will be the ones to bear the debt or the majority of it. I do not believe they deserve this burden any more than we do. Mel Dowdy—^No. Space is a new frontier that must be explored for future use. If America is not in the forefront of the space race, it will lose much of its prestige around the world, and other coun tries may not use their conquest of space for the betterment of humanity. Therefore, I believe we must continue on with the space race, letting noth ing slow us down. Paul Early—A slowdown in the space program now would be disastrous to the United States in the future. Any gap between the free world and the Communist world is certainly a short one, and a cutback in spending on our space program would give them a lead in the important years ahead. I would suggest a more careful spending of funds already appropriated. David Jonei—Basically, I am anti-war, and I feel that Vietnam is a senseless war in loss of life, etc. I am for a pro-space program, for, after all, we may find something “out there” that will help our civilization-living space, at least. However, I do find it rather provoking that 60-odd nations signed a pact or treaty to use space • and the moon for peaceful purposes, when on this planet we cannot find a peaceful solution to international clash in doctrine. Therefore, I feel it would be best to cut spending on the space program and do something constructive about Vietnam. Johnny McIntosh—Yes, I feel that we should con tinue to develop our space program; but I feel we should put our capital into areas which benefit man more directly. Carroll Reed—No, because the rest of the world is looking to us as leaders, not only in the leader ship of democracy, but also in all political aspects including the space program. Luther Rickenhacker—In both his inaug;ural and first State of the Union addresses of 1961, President Kennedy called for East-West cooperation “to in voke the wonders of science instead of its terrors, together let us explore the stars. The space ef fort has moved along with considerable smoothness since its beginning. The recent tragedy will be a date long remembered by the American people when three astronauts lost their lives practicing in the Apollo space program. To halt the space effort would be invoking the terrors of science, to con tinue would be to invoke the wonder of the moon! With the amount of attention focused on Southeast Asia in the last two years, I think the space pro gram has progressed enormously.”
