That a college education is an expensive venture is a statement which few, if any, will contest. Financial responsibilities engulf a student at almost every turn; this being the case, each student should be interested in the way in which the administration utilizes "her" money. Although it is not possible to be briefed on the employment of all funds, one fee in particular does lend itself to public analyzation, the student activity fee.

Money received from the student activity fee is delegated by the administration to various campus organizations via a Campus Fees Committee, which in turn determines the appropriation to be received by each group. A budget request, containing a historical statement of past expenditures and a request for money based on project future expenditures is submitted yearly by the officers and sponsors of each organization; this form is the criteria upon which the committee bases its current appropriations. Prior to the consideration of each budget request the organization in question must have its books closed and audited for the past fiscal year and submit an audit report. The committee then checks the bank's records of the organization against the expenditures listed. In addition, each organization must keep a Record of Income and Expenses, as well as a written receipt of each expenditure. After careful consideration of an organization's past history, the committee sets its appropriation for the upcoming year.

The budget year runs from May 30 to April 1.

The Campus Fees Committee tries to distribute the money in proportion to the scope of each organization's service in relation to the student body as a whole. For example, the Rotunda, Virginian, and Gyre receive more than an intradepartmental group since their services benefit more people. To prevent one organization from building up a capital surplus from its allotment of the activity fee, the committee tries to maintain a balance between the accounts of the various groups. For example, if a club reaches the end of

a fiscal year with a balance of $300 and has indicated on its budget request that it will require $500 for the upcoming year, the committee will appropriate only $200, not the entire amount indicated on the request.

Listed below is the Statement of Funds for the 1967-68 academic year.

The Campus Fees Committee welcomes any suggestions and/or criticisms which the students may have concerning the distribution of the activity fee.

Balance of Funds From 1966-67, $411.57; Student Activities Fee Funds Allocated for 1967-68, $35,000; Summer Session Funds for 1967, $1,400; Total Funds, $36,811.57.

A New Editor Is Born

I

Recently the Publications Board selected Phyllis Myers as EditorIn-Chief of THE GYRE for 1967-1968. We feel that this position now lests in very capable hands and we have high hopes for the finest magazine ever produced at Longwood. But this goal cannot be achieved without the loyal support of the students.

THE GYRE has progressed greatly in the past few years, becoming a quality piece of art. A literary publication is essential to the student expression on campus The ideals and talents of youth are the most important treasures of academic life.

THE GYRE is striving to produce a magazine that will appeal to a wide range of student tastes The staff offers encouragement to all student artists They need your short stories, poetry, essays, reviews, ind art work A creative writing contest is sponsored annually by THE GYRE as an effort to seek out the very best literary material. THE GYRE rids twtnty-seven years of successful publication at Longwood and is trying to make the twenty-eighth year an even better one.

In on age when college literary magazines are folding because of lack of student support or funds, we urge you to support this literary product of our college with your energies and written contributions.

Taking Time To Listen During the year various groups, such as Jarman Series, Institute of Southern Culture, University Center in Richmond, Inc , and numerous student organizations, are responsible for bringing to our campus many distinguished and excellent speakers Prominent in their particular fields, they are well-qualified to address a more knowledgeable and discerning audience than one composed of Longwood undergraduates There is variety unlimited in topics covered within a year; to see this one has only to consider those lectures already given and those to come in the next weeks We have been given the opportunity to hear lectures by leading authority on children's books and the editor of "Science" magazine The presdent of Southern Seminary Junior College delivered the Convocation address and proved to be an outstanding and engaging speaker A renowned American philosopher, Paul Weiss, will appear on our campus next week to discuss "Higher Education " In the months to come, other speakers will bring to Longwood an even greatly diversity of background and subject matter. But there will probably be no more diversity of audience.

It is unfortunate indeed that these distinguished men and women do not find more receptive audiences among Longwood students.

Attendance of the Jarman Series is required for freshmen; therefore, freshmen attend Some professors require their classes to attend certain lectures And that, alas, is usually the extent of the student audience Those "interested parties" who are present are very few.

It is dishearteninq — and often disgusting — to address an audience of twenty people, yet this is the situation in which some visit mg speakers have found themselves. These lecturers deserve — and should find — a receptive and respectful audience.

Few of these events last longer than an hour, though in some instances, a coffee hour, to which some students are invited, follows.

Having the opportunity to meet and talk with the speaker should be regarded as a privilege — not as a punishment. It is very unlikely that there are Longwood students whose schedules are so filled that thev cannot find an hour to attend a lecture. Of course, it may mean forfeiting a bridge game or a gab session at the rec The student is left to decide which is more important.

So This Is College Life?

By BECKY BERNARD

Oh, When Longwood Goes Co-ed. Oh When . . .

College Survey Reveals Best "Hunting Grounds 95

By KAREN MAHER This past summer McCall's magazine published a survey that they had taken with the help of various college newspaper editors around the United States. The results of the survey were published in the form of questions and answers.

The lead question that would be of interest to Longwood girls is "What colleges produce the best husbands?"

The answer was Harvard, Princeton, and Yale. The colleges that produce the best wives are Vassar, Smith, Wellesley, and Northwestern.

The greatest freedom in sex is found at Berkeley, Antioch, Harvard, and UCLA. Going along with this idea, the most promiscuous men are found at Berkeley, Harvard, and New York University, while the most promiscuous women are at Berkeley, Vassar, and Radcliffe.

Have you ever wondered where the best place is to find a husband? Your best bet would be to catch a plane and fly to Michigan State, Ohio State, or UCLA. If you are hunting for a particular type of the male species, certain schools are better hunting grounds than others. For example, a leader in industry is most likely to graduate from M.I.T., Harvard, or the University of Pennsylvania. The best places for creative artists are New York University, Pratt Institute, University of California, and Oberlin. A millionaire is always nice, so try Harvard, Yale, or Princeton. For those whose tastes are scientific, go to M.I.T., Caltech, or Berkeley. If you would like someone who has something in common with you, Columbia, Harvard, and the University of Chicago are known for producing distinguished teachers. Statesmen come out of Harvard, Yale, Georgetown, and Princeton. If you simply crave the athletic type, either Notre Dame, Michigan State, or the University of Alabama is the place to be. Have you ever dreamed of meeting or marrying a future President of the United States? Make tracks to either Harvard, Southwest Texas State, Yale, West Point, or all

of them.

Are you bored with the hum-drum and discomforts of your college life?

Are you thinking about transferring?

Why not do it right? Apply to University of Miami or the University of Hawaii.

Princeton and Harvard are recommended, but most of us would not pass the required physical.

The brightest boys can be traced to Harvard, M.I.T., and Caltech, while the duUest boys roam the campuses of Parsons, West Point, and Penn State. The sloppiest looking boys reside at Berkeley and Antioch, and the best dressed boys are at Harvard, Yale and Princeton. The most attractive boys are waiting for us at Princeton, Yale, Harvard and the military academies.

The most attractive girls seem to flock to UCLA, the University of Texas, and the University of Mississippi. Radcliffe, NYU, and Bennington have a turn out of the least attractive girls. (Longwood did not even make this rating, which is one comfort.) The brightest girls shine at Radcliffe, Vassar, Smith, and Barnard. The dullest girls attend the University of Miami, Michigan State, Long Island University, and Vassar.

Only two Virginia schools received any kind of rating in this survey.

Sweet Briar was among Vassar and Northwestern as the colleges with the best dressed girls. In another rating, which wiU come as no surprise to anyone who las ever been to U. Va. for a weekend, the University of Virginia ranked first as the most drinking school followed by the University of Wisconsin, Miami University (Ohio), and the University of Colorado.

The results of the survey were interesting, but actually not too profitable for the students of Longwood College which is in Farmville, Virginia. Since most of us have no desire to visit Sweet Briar and some of us get a little bored with U. Va., another recommendation is in order.

Check the student stand-by fares on the various airlines, pack your bags, prepare to fly, and do not forget to sign out on your pink slips!

So you say you're a college woman now and you love it, gotta have it.

Your parents didn't especially understand that 1.6 average, but things are lookin' up for this semester, you say you love the girls, except for that hairy monster you live with. .. and you can leave for the weekend on Friday at 11:00 a.m., except for that 10:00 math of Saturday morning. . . you say your housemother is walking in your door just as you unplug your popcorn popper and shove your sunlamp under the bed. . . the fire drill just went off and you're in the shower washing your hair. .. and you just got word of a dorm search and you're getting' a little nervous about all that dining hall silverware in your room. . . you say you got invited to Va. to the Theta Delta pajama costume party, you went, and the L.C. "Rotunda" photographer got some real cool candid shots of you. . . you say you've got four late minutes to your credit already and your date realizes that his watch is fifteen minutes slow. . . you say your dorm is great except for that darn teenie bopper upstairs who think's she's Aretha Franklin and does the pony all night. . . you say you got a mid-term this afternoon and all the beds in the infirmary are full. . . you say you come grooving in from Leo's and Judi Board is at your door to greet you. . .ain't that the cat's meow. .. you say you just washed your clothes in a machine that they just used to dye a slip red. . . and you just had to have that cute little dress downtown and now they won't let you go home until you pay the bill. . .the check bounced, huh?. . . you say the temperature dropped to 40 degrees and they turned the heat off in the dorm. . . you pulled an all-nighter to finish that book report and he gave a pop quiz instead. . . you say you're cold natured and your roommate is on some kind of health kick. . .loves fresh air. . . you say you got no classes until 11:00 and can sleep and they're blowing up tree stumps outside your window. . . you say you just bleached your hair, then found out that your history professor hates blondes. . . your friends just made you a charter member of Bumma Sig. . .they love ya. .. you're going to UNC this weekend with some good-lookin' hunk and you just got a big goob on your chin. . . you had a blind date, he wasn't the guy your roommate thought he was and turned out to have long slicked black hair, tapered trou, and picked you up on his 320 motorbike. . .

Well, you never know, you know. . . you studied all night for a quiz at 8:00. . .then slept 'til noon. . .your pump can't stand it.. .

Somebody rolled your $20 iron out of the laundry room and left you a K-Mart $5.00 special in its place... and your housemother listens for dropping pins over her PA. . . and they're checking your windows after lights out. . .but you outfoxed 'em, you sly dog. You covered your windows with blankets!

Ah, times are easy, times are hard.

But they're all part of life at dear ol' L.C.!

Phyllis Myers Chosen Gyre Editor (Continued from Page 1) Her private interests are colorful and inventive. Since her major entails concentrated studies in American literature, she took advantage of her family last summer on vacation. "We toured the New England states and Expo '67," she began. "I dragged my two brothers and my parents to all (or as many as possible!) of the homes of those famous early American authors. We saw Longfellow's home in Portland, Maine; Louisa May Alcott's home town; and Emerson and Thureau's homes in Concord, Massachusetts; and Hartford, Connecticut, the home of tliat loved-by-all Mark ui."

Expo '67 was also a high point in Phyllis' life. "It was one of the more interesting experiences in my life.

It was fabulous. We'd be waiting in line and all types of foreign people would be conversing in their native tongues. It really gave me the sensation of how large and different the world we live in actually is."

Phyllis received a "Chi Commend" on April 24, 1967 for her sincerity in her work on the "Gyre" and in the Y.W.C.A. In addition, she is a member of Pi Delta Epsilon, the honorary journalism society and Lambda Iota Tau, the honorary literary society here on campus.

The "Rotunda" welcomes letters to the editor but it will not print any letter unless It is type-written and signed by the individual submitting it. Letters are subject to publication only at the editorial staff's approval.

Longwood Defeats William And Mary, Tibbs And Matthews Dominate Scores Saturday, October 7, was not exact- road repair but after a short warmly the best hockey weather as Long- up the team was ready to play, wood hosted William and Mary College.

The first game was very tight as The wet grass played an important the two excellent teams battled for part in the day's games. the ball. L.C. ran away with it and W&M was delayed by an emergency scored off of Barbara Matthews' stick.

Fran Sheffield discusses strategy with Anna Pettis.

But the remaining 15 minutes of the first half was spent on Longwood's 25 yard line as W&M tried desperately to score. At the half, L.C. had held W&M with a 1-0 score.

When the second half began, it was noticeable that W&M had received some new instructions and again kept the ball in L.C.'s territory until our forward line came back to help the defense.

Longwood stole the ball, ra'i up the field and again Barbara Matthews put the extra touch to the ball and scored.

L.C. led 2-0. But W&M was not defeated yet. Again the ball was in L.C.'s striking circle and with a hard rush on the ball, scored with a hard hit to make the score 2-1. As the final whistle sounded, before either team could score again, Longwood was victorious with a 2-1 score.

The second game was much like the first but the field became more slippery. Early in the first half, L.C. drove hard and scored in the first five minutes with a scoop by Chris McDonnell. However, it was not too long afterwards that W&M managed to put one over the goal line to even the score.

It was obvious that Longwood's front line was ready to score but because they were the ones doing the most slipping they could not keep hold of the ball for a very long time. Despite this fact Longwood spent most of the second half in W&M's striking circle, fighting to get the ball in the cage.

Finally, two well placed hits by Jane Tibbs crossed the line one right after the other. W&M, not to be outdone, came back with 5 minutes to go and scored. In the final minutes of the game, no one was sure how the game would end. Again the whistle was a saving factor, with L.C. leading, 3-2.

"The Rotunda" reminds the student body that Longwood will host Lynchbur College tomorrow at 2 and 3 p.m.

Saturday, October 14, L.C. will host Westhampton at 2 and 3 p.m. Come out and support our victorious hockey teams!

LC Establishes 'Turnverein,9 Local Honorary Fraternity The physical education department now has an honorary fraternity on campus. TURNVEREIN.aGermanword that literaUy translated means gymnastics but is usually taken to mean any form of physical activity or sport, is the name of the society.

TURNVEREIN hopes to go national and has applied to Delta Psi Kappa Fraternity. Delta Psi Kappa requires a history of the college, a history of the physical education department, and a history of each person in the local chapter along with a listing of their professional memberships before they will admit a local chapter. Delta Psi Kappa emphasizes all aspects of physical education and stresses AAHPER (American Association of Health, Physical Education, and Recreation).

Delta Psi Kappa does not say that their chapters must be honorary, but 38 out of 40 cliapters are honorary, and the Longwood Chapter has chosen to be an honorary society.

The faculty of the physical education department has been working since 1963 to establish an honorary fraternity for physical education majors. In the Spring of 1965 the idea was presented to the students who accepted it enthusiastically. Last Spring, 1967, a nucleus group was formed with two members from each class. The original group consisted of Diane Davis and Connie Gallahan who have graduated, Angie Smith, Danna Tribby, Anna Pettis, Pat Halstead, and Barbara Matthews.

Presently there are fourteen members of TURNVEREIN. The officers are: Donna Tribby, President; Anna Pettis, Vice-President and Historian; and Jane Curie, Secretary-Treasurer.

Mrs. Bobbitt is the faculty sponsor.

The other members are: Carol Blythe, Jean Hendricks, Pat Ingram, Ellen McStudent-Faculty Golf Match Sunday, Oct. 15 at 12:30 p.m.

FIND SCHOLARSHIPS

BY COMPUTER Last year $30 million in college scholarships went unclaimed — because no qualified persons applied . . because no qualified persons knew of them.

• Now ECS engineers and educators have programmed a high-speed computer with 700.000 items of scholastic aid, worth over $500 million, to permit students to easily and quickly locate scholarships for which they qualify.

• The student fills out a detailed, confidential questionnaire and returns it to ECS, with a one-time computer-processing fee of $15 In seconds the computer compares his qualifications against requirements of grants set up by foundations, business, civic, fraternal, religious, and government organizations. and prints a personalized report to the student telling him where and when to apply tor grants for which he qualifies Thousands of these do not depend on scholastic standing or financial need
