He is on- a leave of absence from

"Knocky" describes his double
career as definitely a necessity. He
feels that If he had to depend
soley on Jazz for a living he would
be hindered In his presentation
and the authenticity of his work.
. During the summer of 1954,
Parker filled in as piano player
with the ' Louis Armstrong band.
He also plays with various "pick
up" groups in New York and Chicago. These groups are a combination of some of the most famous
and well known jaza artist in
America.
He feels that Louis Armstrong
is "a, great man, and along with
Kid Ory he is the last of the great
Jazzmen."

being the most recorded jazz pianist in the world with a total of
over 800 recordings. He is also the

About this time every semester, students get "fed up" with the problem
of homework, going to class, to the library, reading extra books, and cram-roin- g
for mid-terexams between
activities.

At other times attending classes
every day becomes extremely boring.
It would be more efficient to attend
classes one day a week or one day
every two weeks, and spend the rest
of the time studying in the library or
working on the research that is expected anyway. It would allow more
free time for professors to give individual time to the students to ask
questions on difficult problems, if
they were not expected to give lectures every day besides.

This would not be just an advantage
for the students. It would also give
the professors plenty of time for grading papers, doing their own research,
reading the extra books which are
necessary to be well informed in this
modern world.
Years ago when there were no text-

books, lectures were essential to a
student's education. That was several
years ago. Now it is practically nonessential, and an interference most of
the time.
With the problem of finding adequate staffs of well educated personnel for universities and the continual
crowded conditions in classrooms, it
is highly unrealistic to keep on with
the outdated methods of teaching.
While trying to solve the problems
of conquering the moon and beating
the Communists at their own propaganda game, we are still unable to
solve some of the essential problems
of education. What has happened to
the old spirit of adventure?

:

We are writing this letter in regard to the orderly (?) seating
arrangement that occurred at the
LSU football game as a result of the
Student Congress' latest effort.
Owing to the confusion, near fights,
arid general --chaos that prevailed at
the game last Saturday, we, the undersigned, acting with the authority
vested in us are now moving to reserve a section o( seats at future home
football games for the mechanical
engineers orthe entire Engineering
College as circumstances prevail..
Now as to the reasons behind such
a niove. The most obvious of course
is the increased student support at
the games by letting the engineers sit
together in a body so they might
cheer as lustily as did the law students and the members of the various
fraternities at the LSU. game.. Next,
of course, is the fact that we as engineers are as proud of our profession as are the lawyers and feel that
their watchword, "justice" should be
applied to this situation. If necessary,
we will don our engineers' caps, red
bandanas, and strap on our slide
rules so that we wil) be as distinctive as ' the lawyers. . (We may even
have a "Don the Slide Rule Day.")
We, of course, will not be satisfied
with reserved seats in Section B, but
will ask for and expect to get re- served seats in Section C. We ask
for this section now with the expectation of hearing the Pharmacy College asking for reserved seats and we
,
want the best seats.

Therefore we as a committee, representing the student section of

Thus, even though there are disadvantages to this program (as there
are in every program), the advantages

We noted in today's Kernel (Oct.

on the apparent futility of the ROTC
program. (Readers Forum, Oct. 21).
I would like to make a brief comment on the article.
For those students for whom ROTC
is compulsory, few if any, have valid
knowledge of what the military is.
At this tender age, fewer still have
made up their minds that the military
is or is not for them.
The ROTC program provides a
small, if somewhat distorted, picture
of what the life of a soldier is. By
the time two years have passed, "a
lot of water has gone under the
bridge," and the student is now considered to be more mature and
seriously considering his future.
Now even though the Selective
Service System has been criticized as
unfair, it does sooner or later catch'
up with a lot of us, if the potential
advanced ROTC students sees "the

years a? an officer and a gentleman,

In summary, it is important to note

Might we suggest, if these would-bscientists are really "sincere in their
efforts to "look like" men of science,
that they write a Russian University
and ascertain what the typical Russian physics major wears to class each
day. Then they could pattern their
wardrobe after these industrious
young men and' achieve their goal of,
at least, looking like a 'scientist.
