Dr. Cowley gave a sketched rundown on the history of student revolts, beginning with the 16th century. There once were 27 murders in 30 days at Oxford. Fifteen of these were by students--but student opinion was so powerful in those days that a student was never punished for his first murder. In the 19th century there was what Dr. Cowley described as "Intellectual protest" or "cerebral protest." It still wasn't new--"students have always participated cerebrally." Even Alexander Hamilton was a student proteste r who forced a professor out of the country. In the 19th century when there were no social sciences, students protested in three ways--they e stablished their own curricular sciences, anddisengagement, which involved two things: athletics and fraternities. Co- Education also came along at this time. The result was that "student and faculty had nothing to do with each other." There were several debates on these social issues, but Dr. Cowley stated that these debates were "artificial." Outside organizations on campuses is also not a novelty, Dr. Cowley explained. The first invasion of the campus by outs iders was in 1908, by the Inter-collegiate Socialist League which established itself on 50 campuses. Such people as Clarence Darell, Jack London and Upton Sinclair were involved. Walter Whitman was even secretary to the socialists.
These men purchased Yvonne Zapeda for the largest amount a slave has ever
During the roaring twenties students became interested in their curricula. Dr. Cowley was then editor of the Daily Darmouth. "I knew I had to be better than the last editor so I chose the theme, 'The Lousy Education of Darmouth College,' and said this six days a week--I was very unpopular with the president." The two types of protest in the educational arena at this time were cerebral and visceral, and the two arenas were public and educational. The protests at Darmouth College at the time Dr. Cowley was editor did some good, and the president of the college at that time appointed a committee to find out what was wrong with the curricula. The committee then went to see what was happening at other colleges. The impact was so great that it led to similar reports from about 25 other colleges. Twelve reports were mad~ from the students at Harvard who were also protesting. In the 30's, between the stock market crash and the war, there was a rise in student protest. The educational program and public arena was forgotten, and the student participation in protest was so high that many students went to jail. Oxford even had a pledge "never to fight again" to stimulate students against the war. After a flare up on the Negro issue in 1938, there was a "decade of apathy" where "the damn apathetic students weren't interested in anything." Apparently not even apathy on college campuses is anything new. This period of (Continued on page 4)

Who says that money can't buy everything? Well, it bought 17 slaves for jovial Palomar men -y esterday during one of the "wildest" slave auctions in the college's history. Dean Robert Bowman presided as auctioneer as he successfully prodded the bidders, bringing in over $100. 00. Yvonne Zepeda proved to be the mostwanted slave in Palomar's history as she sold for the amazing amount of $17.60, but her dilemma had just begun for she was sold to nine men who pooled their money together. Nancy Hicks will be the slave of Mike Grosvenor this week, earning her keep after raising the second largest amount of money, selling for $11.95. The bidding was so intense for Nancy that at one time a bidder raised his own bid! One of the biggest laughs of the morning came when Don Drueger bought not one, not two , but three slaves, putting out $10.00. He represented the United

Collegiate Republicans and no sooner had the girls been bought , than he had them carrying large Stull campaign signs around. The club will have the services of Marty Clark, Jeanne Hoadley, and Gall Anthony for the entire week. In one instance, bidding was cautiously raised to $5.00 as the bidders were told they couldn't see who the slave would be until the bidding had begun. At this time the bidders were slightly put back when their potential slave appeared, a beautiful girl who might have been the sister of Rich Lipari. He, or she, was sold for $5.50 to Neil McAffe, Book Store Manager. Then the biggest surprise of all came -- Rich was standing in for homecoming queen Sandi Woods! McAffe didn't make such a bad purchase after al l. The rest of the "slaves," their prices, and their purchasers were, J oan Bonds, $2.80 to Bill Rose; Carol Superfine, $6 .00 to Wes Midduaal; Susan Shields, (Continued on page 4)

Student protests: centuries old. "St. Augustine was driven out by student protests because of his teaching in 4 A.D. He then went to Rome where he became a private teacher, and students protested further by cheating him out of his fees ." The point that Dr. W.H. Cowley was stressing is that Student Revolt is not new--in fact, this has been happening for centuries. Speaking Friday on "Student unrest as it pertains to the New Student," Dr. Cowley compared the twentieth century student revolts to others through the centuries. He gave classic examples such as "wooding it up" (students would stomp their feet on the wooden floors until class was over if they didn't' like the teacher) and "horning" (each student would buy 10 horns after the decision was made that a teacher wasn't good enough, and horn him 24 hours a day unti he left town). Raidingfacultymembers is a very old tradition--as Dr. Cowley illustrated.
