immmiwmwmMwmaBBm What is there about a library that makes it so hard a place in which to study? Is it the soft hum of the air conditioners, or the thick carpets un- derfoot, or simply the abundant ca- maraderie about the old place? If there is more sleeping and socializing in the library than there is work, it is not due to any shortcomings of the physical plant, aside from our finan- cial restrictions; SA has in Mr. Dick Lietz a scholar as well as librarian, and his knowledge of contemporary literature is a major source of research for anyone who takes the time to seek him out. Ably assisted by his wife and assistants, Mr. Lietz has undertaken the task of transforming DeTamble Library from a sparsely stocked ware- house of bookshelves into a top rate liberal arts library. One of these days the SA student is going to discover what libraries are really for, and maybe then the place will be taken advantage of. Top: Mrs. Bennett; Mr. Lietz and Mrs. Johnson. 26 2L

St. Andrews in the past year or two has been a young girl coming of age, a debutante preparing for her presen- tation to society. The days of infancy and childhood passed swiftly, and now at the ripe old age of seven years, St. Andrews has become a relatively mature and graceful young lady, suitable for her social entrance. She better be ready, because she is about to ask for thirty million dollars, that she might further her growth and cultural advantages. That she is such a beautiful ladv and has developed so well is to the credit of the SA De- velopment Office, which is primarily responsible for SA ' s public image. Someone must convey the spirit and storv of St. Andrews to the world, and the task falls to Mr. Bruce Frye, Mr. Badger Johnson and Mr. Fowler Dugger. Handling news releases, countless visitors, the student publi- cations and anything else that repre- sents St. Andrews to the public is their job; the number of students that applv and benefactors that respond to our needs is their reward.

The cafeteria, hub of the student cen- ter, the Home of Better Foods, Hul- ka ' s Hash House; the place on campus where the circle of selves of the SA student reaches its widest circumfer- ence; where the food is plentiful and originally named, and if it ' s not al- ways like Mama ' s cooking, remember that Mama never had to cook 1600 meals a day. John Hulka does, and all things considered does a pretty good job. Steak once a week, all the seconds you can hold and grits for- ever and ever. Still, it ' s fun to com- plain, so the food gets rapped; and if Mrs. White didn ' t catch Rock stealing bread so often, we ' d have one less daily laugh at SA. Besides, the food is always a great conversation opener when you ' re dining with that sweetiepie who ' s in your nine o ' clock class. But we ' ve got to sympathize with Marvin, the chef, and his kitchen crew; he cooks the food as well as he knows how, but Hulka keeps dreaming up these crazy names for hamburger, till the students are total- ly psyched out and couldn ' t stomach an alka seltzer.
