NORMAN THOMAS

er Tells Greeks
To Open Communications
By BLITHE BUNSDORF

Kernel Feature Editor
"Open up communication between people; know with whom
you can be honest; accept people
for what they are regardless of
what that may be."
This unique challenge was issued to University Greeks at the
annual Greek week kickoff banquet lat night by Dr. Charles
Seashore, guest speaker and presently director of research at the
National Training Laboratories
in Washington, D.C.
In a speech that closely parallels the content of the special
Centennial Group Dynamics
course being given under visiting
Centennial professor Dr. Kenneth
Benne, Dr. Seashore cited the
Greek system for the "potential
for exploring and building relationships that allow an individual freedom to be himself."
Dr. Seashore explained that a
"curious lid" is put on feelings;
a constant process of censorship
on our behavior
is
and that in growing up, we have
become "hopelessly socialized."
"It is at this point an organizationany organization, but
specifically of the less than
small group size can

ing members to mature as individuals."
In elaborating this point, Dr.

DIl. CHARLES SEASIIOKE

Seashore cited several group problems, individual manifestations
of these, and possible solutions.
Four areas present the greatest
difficulties to a group that is of
short term duration, according to
Dr. Seashore. The most basic of
these arises when the group (not
necessarily the individuals) are
"fairly immature."
In this situation the members
of the group are concerned almost
exclusively with their own identity: "who am I in this group?
How do I want the group to see
me?"
Their basic questions focus on
their own concepts of themselves.
The second area of conflict develops from the power and influence struggle. "Who is going to
have the power? How much will
they influence me and vice ver-

sa?"
It is interesting here to note,
continued Dr. Seashore, that

apathy generally called an inherent student malady is a direct result of an individuals per- -

leading metal sculptor and

a Louisville newspaperman will

deliver Centennial lectures at the
University this month.
Sponsored by the School of
Architecture, the lectures will be
given by Grady Clay, real estate
editor of the Louisville

sculptor and professor of art at
New York City's Hunter College.
Prof. Lippold's lecture is set
for 8 p.m., Feb. IS in the Student
Center Theater. Mr. Clay will
deliver his lecture at 1:30 p.m.
Friday, Feb. 26 in the Reynolds
Building on Broadway.
Prof. Lippold began teaching
at Hunter College in 1052 after
teaching at other Midwest and

of the "metal scrupture school,"
and was an industrial designer

ception of the power and influence role in a group.
Goals and needs constitute
the fourth area for group concern.
These basics of organizational
structure are easily defined
around specifics projects, dances, committees, etc. but become difficult to pinpoint when
they are defined individually.
Such individual concerns for
goals and needs manifest themselves in questions such as: "How
will my goals and needs be met
by the group? How can I become
more sensitive to the goals and
needs of others?"
The final problem that demands close scrutiny focuses on
the acceptance and intimacy of
the individual in his group.
This area centers close attention on personal adequacies and
inadequacies of trusting others:
"How close am I willing to get
to others? How close ami willing
to let them get to me?"
These four problems produce
what Dr. Seashore refers toas the
"big three" reactions: tension,
anxiety, and frustration, and manifest themselves in numerous
forms of individual behavior that
range from complete withdrawal
to tough aggressive action.
In offering solutions to the
pressures exerted on individuals
in group situations, Dr. Seashore
, asked the Creek organizations to
examine their groups and determine how satisfied individuals
were with each other.
"Determine how committed
you are to each others growth;
how willing you are to level and
share your honest reactions both
positive and negative and how
you can build relationships in a
way which facilitates the growth
of other individuals as well as
your own."
Dr. Seashore concluded by
urging the Greek organizations
to demonstrate the strength to
build
relationships by a direct examination of
the various behaviors exhibited
by the individual members of
the group.

uate of Princeton University,
Thomas spent 13 years in New
York settlement and mission work.
In 1918 he resigned his missionary parish because its supporters were withdrawing their aid
from it on the ground of his socialist and antiwar activity.
Thomas was one of the organizers of the American Civil
Liberties Union. During the next
few years he was active in many
struggles supporting the rights of
workers to organize.
In this connection and
through the Socialist Party, he
won several important victories
in the courts for civil liberties,
the most significant of which
was a dramatic
fight
in the Passaic, N. J., textile
strike of 1926.
Thomas also was one of the
first persons in the nation to
call attention to the plight of
the sharecroppers of the South.
He helped organize the Southern Tenant Farmers' Union. During World War II he actively
fought for a peace based on the
cooperation of free peoples and
rejection of both vengenance and
imperialism.
Since then he has campaigned for world disarmament, with
international control and inspection, applying to criticism of the
Soviet Union the same standards
of value that he applies to his
free-spee-

own country.

On the occasion of Thomas'
birthday, the Washington
Post said editorially:
"Above all else lie has been
a conscience of the American
people. . . .among the most influential individuals in 20th Century politics. . .We join great
numbers of his fellow Americans
in congratulating the country on
having him as a leader at large."
Harry Fleischman, a biographer of Thomas, has written:
"Undoubtedly Thomas' greatest
gift is that of oratory. Speech
experts have marveled at his forensic talents, which never consist of endlessly repeating a prepared and memorized lecture. .
He gives an exploring talk.
"Thomas' effectiveness as a
speaker stems from several sources: his enormous reading over
a wide range of subject matter,
his many contacts with leaders in
varied fields, and his superior
intellect. His depth of conviction, which has caused many to
liken him to the Prophets of old,
impresses every audience with his
honesty, his complete genuineness and his good will."
Miss Porter says the SCC is
now trying to schedule speakers
in the areas of civil rights and human relations,
man and his government, and
foreign affairs.

Mrs. Johnson To Attend

Founder's Day Celebration

Mrs. Lyndon B. Johnson will
accompany the President on his
visit to Lexington Feb. 22, however, no decision has been reached as to whether their two daughters Lynda and Luci will be present.
President Johnson will be the
principal speaker at the convocation marking the 100th anniversary of the establishment of the
University. The program will be
held at 2 p.m. in Memorial Coliseum.
Acceptance from the White
House was not received until last
Friday, although plans were
made to invite the President to
speak at the Centennial convocation as soon as preparations for
the event were started.
The University was not able
to issue the formal invitation until after the November election.
Dr. John W. Oswald, Gov.
Edward T. Breathitt, and Kentucky's senators and represent

atives made the formal request
for Johnson to speak here.
This will be President Johnson's first trip to Lexington since
he became the chief executive
in 1963.
Mrs.

Johnson helped campaign here in 1960, when her
husband was a candidate for the.
vice presidency, and spoke at a
banquet fro the Kentucky Federation of Women's Clubs at the
Phoenix Hotel last May.
Classes at the University will
be dismissed at 11 a.m. on the
morning of the convocation, Dr.
Ralph Weaver, Faculty Member,
said. Weaver, who presided at
the Faculty committee meeting
Monday said that the Faculty
passed a resolution to dismiss
classes after the third hour.
President Oswald said Johnson's presence is "just about
the greatest honor that can be
paid to a university."

SAICON, South Vietnam
Viet Cong terrorists blew up a
U.S. enlisted men's
hotel tonight in the city of Qui
Nhon,270 miles northeast of Saigon, and the loss of American
lives was believed high.
Initial reports here said seven
Americans were known to have
been wounded, but the entire
building was a pile of rubble and
many dead were believed buried
under the debris.
The building housed about 40
U.S. enlisted men.

The official account that

The Qui Nhon attack coincided with growing evidence of a

against Vietnam forces and their

At the White House, press
secretary George E. Reedy said
President Johnson was keeping
in close touch with all developments, and that newsmen would
be informed of any additional

Told that this seemed to carry
an implication that the United

North Vietnamese, Reedy declined to say anything beyond the
word that the government is keeping in close touch with the situation.

Two armed helicopters were dispatched to the town. One was

A ranger unit was airlifted into the region for an attempt to

Centennial Ball Is Major UK Social Event

When Invitations Say 'Black Tie .
the strict
while
According
to

rules
of etiquette laid down by Emily
Post and Amy Vanderbilt a

"black tie" invitation requires
a certain type of dress for the
man and woman.
The formality of noting men's
dress on the invitation is due to
the tendency on their part to
show disdain for formal dress.
A slight prod seems in order to
get them decked out in their
best.
Rule of thumb for black tie
occasions is a t.uxedo, with
starched white shirt
and studs, black socks and
shoes and bow tie. Belts are
never worn with a tux.
This simple yet elegant dress
has seen many variations in the
past several years but a tuxedo
of midnight blue with satin or
is still the
grosgrain bow-ti- e
custom.
Pardon the free advertising
but for those men not lucky
enough to own a tux, several
Lexington establishments are
prepared to rent at a reduced
rate to students.

Prof. Clark
Chosen Lecturer
Dr. Thomas D. Clark, chairman of the University Department of History and distinguished professor of history, is one of
12 United States professors chosen
to lecture in the fifth annual

SemiJoint
nar. Dr. Clark will lecture on
"Nationalism in the Writing of
Traditional American History."
Sponsored by Indiana University, the seminar will be held
at Novi Sad, Yugoslavia, during
the second week of June. Participants in the seminar will be
Yugoslavian university professors
who will study American and
Yugoslavian culture.
Since 1948, Dr. Clark has lectured at the Salzburg Seminar,
Salzburg, Austria and during a
13 week tour of India sponsored
by the U. S. Department of States.
He was visiting distinguished
professor at Pennsylvania State
University, and was as NATO
professor at the University of
Athens and the University of
Thessaloniki, Greece.
Dr. Clark has published more
than 50 articles in professional
journals and written more than
10 books on the American frontier and Southern historical

studs, the "tux only" at Meyers
and Graves-Cois only $8.30.
Jim Charters, University law
student is taking orders for
Skeffington's in Cincinnati for
x

$8 a suit.

Women's dress on these occasions is less stylized than the
men's. Long formals are the
general rule and desirable on all
dress occasions (but if you
don't own one, a very fancy
short formal is acceptable.)
Long formals, elegant in their
own right require very little in
the way of adornment. Jewelry
should be kept to a single strand
of pearls and gloves are a neces-

sity.
Glove length is dictated by
sleeve length of the gown with

the elbow length and above being most preferred. Gloves
should be kept on for dancing
but either removed or tucked
under at the wrist for eating,
drinking and smoking.
Jewelry is not usually worn
over the glove.
While formal wear is generally stylized throughout the
world regional and weather variations are acceptable reasons for
altering the costume.
Men wearing a dark navy or
black suit if a tuxedo is unavailable, white shirt and solid
black tie, socks and shoes will
be welcome at the Centennial
Ball or any other formal function

As mentioned previously,
short, fancy gowns for the
women are in fine taste as long
as jewelry remains at a minimum.

that "clothes make the man,"

Simple refreshments will be

Music provided at formal

the sounds of student rock and

Etiquette on such occasions

* A Time To
The possibility that the University of Louisville will abolish intercollegiate football is imminent. The
Faculty Senate has voted to adopt
the majority report of a seven-ma- n
athletic committee to abandon the
sport. The school's Board of Trustees meets tomorrow to act on the
recommendation.
It is unfortunate, in many ways,
that
athletics do not
work, as they have not worked at
UL. Both financially and in terms
of wins recorded, the Louisville
program has failed. More important, it has simply failed to elicit
support from the community.
Were the sport played for the
benefit that accrues to the individual as a participant, and for the
enjoyment, by the fans, of the competition itself, then intercollegiate
competition would function well.
But the whole point to intercollegiate competition is achieving a
victory over opposing schools. The
emphasis is on the end result, not
the process. In other words, as
Coach Rupp has said, it's not how
you play the game but whether you
win or lose. Fans will pay to watch
a winner, but they will not generally support a consistent loser.
While the faculty's report emphasizes the financial aspect of the
situation at UL, observers in Louisville say there is evidently a desire
on the part of many faculty members to simply get rid of the sport.
Certainly we applaud any faculty which recognizes that intercollegiate athletics are, in general,
irrelevant and detrimental to the
basic philosophies which guide
modern universities.

significance to the success or failure
of athletic teams.
It is our hope that the UL faculty is motivated in part by these objections not simply by the lack of
financial success in suggesting
that football be abandoned.
Of course it is unfortunate that
some UL football players will lose
their opportunities to play football
in a
situation. But the
advantages to the university outweigh the disadvantages to the
individuals.
These players will be able to play
elsewhere if they really want only
an opportunity to interest the professional teams in their abilities.
The recent discoveries that some
college players were signed to professional contracts before they finished their amateur careers only
underscored the fact that intercollegiate athletics are, largely, a training ground for the pro leagues.
Many athletes take up careers in
the professions and in business, but
they are often those who receive
fewest headlines.
The recent cheating scandal at
the Air Force Academy demonstrated another problem. As the Christian Science Monitor pointed out
recently, cheating is apparently
much more prevalent among athletes than
This, it has
been suggested, is due to the fact
that so many young men of below-averaability attempt college
work in order to prepare for professional athletics. When their class
work catches up with them, so the
theory goes, the pressures are great
to take the easiest way out. This is
not to deny, of course, that there
are also some persons of outstanding ability in college athletics.
A minority report filed by the
UL faculty suggests that more
money be poured into the program
and that it be given a trial period
of not more than four years. Under
this plan, an increase in grants-in-aian additional coach, and more
recruiting funds would hopefully
produce a winning team.
We think this would be a mistake. Intercollegiate athletics must
not be allowed to overshadow the
main event of education and the
answer to an unsuccessful program
in
athletics is not deprovelopment of a
