ERS TO THE EDITORS THE EDITORS: -have observed a movement on campus to establish traditions, cots, and policies in the short od of this first term. I would like sk two questions and I would also 'to see the ASUCR give these tions some. serious thought: 1. at is the all-fired rush? 2. Why t traditions,-'mascots, and poli- ,- be established NOW? This ol is hardly ninety days old and ady many are expecting the ities of a campus ninety years .Let's slow down and build our pus with the goals and ultimate itions that only time will produce.

Swimming, dance music, and en- tertainment were provided by the class. Entertainment included a div- ing exhibition by Bud Barton. Bud performed five basic dives including: a forward one-half somersault from a pike position, a backward somer- sault from a pike position, a gainer somersault from a tuck position. These dives were all from the high board. From the low board Bud performed a full twist somersault from a pike position and a cutaway somersault from a tuck position. Miss Joanne Royer gave a demon- stration of synchronized swimming consisting of her interpretation of Starlight. Vaughn Blankenship gave his in- terpretation of Grimmis Fairy Tales for Hep Kids. Patty and Linda Huber sang Red, Red Robin, Zing Went the Strings of My Heart. Al Bielskis, Frosh President, M.C.'d Educ. Program At UCR Clarified Answering numerous inquiries con- cerning UCR education courses, Dr. Arthur C. Turner, chainnan of the Division of Social Sciences of the new College of Letters and Science, Said yesterday the courses will cover basic subjects like child development and the history and philosophy of education. Emphasis will be placed on broad knowledge of fundamental subject matter rather than a superficial smat- tering of educational methods, he pointed out. Dr. Robert A. Nisbet, dean of the College, said although opportunities for practice teaching are not now available it is possible for any stu- dent looking forward to a career as a teacher to begin work at UCR. He said the student could meet the great majority of requirements leading to a elementary or secondary school credential and finish work by SMALL PIANOS Bought - Sold - Rented Steinway - Knabe - etc. 55 a mo. up GosseTt's - 4024 7th transfering to another campus, such as UCLA. It is very definitely the intention of the new college to explore at the earliest possible time arrangements for the granting of elementary and secondary school credentials, Dr. Nisbet added. The Dean pointed out that such arrangements necessarily can be Completed only by action of the uni- versity president and regents after due consultation with appropriate representatives of the public schools. The UCR program for training prospective teachers was explained by Provost Gordon S. Watkins in these words: ' We think it is important to know how to teach, but we are equally certain that it is important to know what to teach. Teachers impoverished in subject matter in the arts, letters, and sci- ences are likely to be mechanically- minded, uninteresting and uninspir.. ing teachers? ' We desire, first, to give prospec- tive teachers a sound, well-rounded cultural education, and, second, Within this framework of broad knowledge to teach them how to pre- sent their subject matter effectively. The Provost said prospective teach- ers will constitute only a small per. centage of the large numbers who eventually will enroll at UCR, but the faculty desires to tum out uni excelled elementary and secondary teachers, the kind we think can be produced only through a liberal arts program.

Student Activities Lack Support e At the beginning of the semester students hollered for ac- tivities. We were all saying that the campus was dead because there were no social functions. Well, kids, funds have been slowly running out on affairs that have had very poor support! You asked for these functions-now support them. You say we have too much homeworkf well so do the old faithfuls who have been putting in their appearances. Do you want outside activities? If you don't, say so. If you do, for pity's sake show it. Let's be an organized student body, let's show a little spirit. D0 you want facts? We started off pretty well at the Presi- dent's Reception and the post-election party. How about the junior Class' beach party? Oh, we can find time for the beach. But there were only about 45 people present. One-half to two- thirds would be a good percentage if we had an enrollment of 1000, but let's face it-we haven't. Then the Sophomore Class Party . . . fifteen or twenty people. Hide your heads in shame. Last, but not least, the Freshman Class Swim Party had from twenty to thirty people dragging in at odd times. ' We have at least two more affairs scheduled this year. Let's see some good backing for them. What kind of a record do we want as the first UCB student body! -by Jackie Holyoke New Or Old The question has arisen, what shall we do for next yearis ASUCR officers. Should we retain the present officers or should we elect new officers? The answer to this question must be ar- rived at soon. Therefore, we should give some thought to this problem. There are many people who share the same opinion as I-keep our present officers for another year. I believe the officers now in office have done a commendable job thus far and would continue to keep up the good work for another year. These officers have hardly had time to give their jobs the maximum of the abilities. I certainly believe they should be allowed to finish the many jobs that have been started. These officers have made a good start in organizing ASUCR. I believe we should heed the saying, Never change horses in the middle of the stream. If we elect new officers they will have to start at the beginning of the present problems in order to find a solution. Why should we throw the progress of our present Council out the window after hey have put in so much effort and work? With these facts in mind I appeal to the members of the ASUCR for a vote to retain our present officers and give them the chance to finish the job they have started and have done so well. -Bill Cowen Dean Returns From Conference In Roanoke, Va. Dean Thomas L. Broadbent re- turned to the UCB campus after an absence of two weeks while attend- ing the convention of the National Association of Student Personnel Ad- ministrators held at Roanoke, Virginia, May 1 through May 4. While this was the first year the Dean attended he was active on sev- eral committees and panel discussions including the Committee on Reception and Hospitality, the Committee on Fratemities and a luncheon meeting dealing with problems concerning the organization of student activities ad- ministration. Dean Broadbent has reported that most of the deans 'present at the con- vention knew of UCR beforehand. These deans expressed particular envy at the opportunity present here to establish good working relations among all segments of the campus community, faculty, students, and ad- ministration. They felt that we have the opportunity to establish organiza- tions without the problems apparent on many of their campuses. For ex- ample, many campuses are having problems with fraternities with dis- crimination clauses in their constitu- tions. This can be avoided here. During his trip Dean Broadbent visited the University of Utah, North- western University, the University of Chicago, Washington and Lee Uni- versity, Tulane, and Texas Christian Uiversities to confer with adminis- trative officials of these campuses. Particularly, he was concemed with over-all organization of student activi- ties, with the ramifications of housing problems and with the methods of organizing and recognizing student organizations.

Farce l480 And All That Opens To Capacity First-Night Crowd -N ' By W. R. Williams The students, faculty members, and friends of UCR, after having witnessed the opening performance of H1480 and all That Wednesday night in the auditorium, came away as pleased as kittens who had just finished lapping up bowls of warm milk-that is to say, they were ex- tremely gratified with the quality of the entertainment which had just been presented them. The performance, which never flaggedor became boresome, was 'of a.decidedly higher calibre than most of the first-nighters had an- ticipated. Every perfonner dished -out his or her role with an obvious relish which seemed to advertize that I, and I alone am the star of your show. Yet, no one managed or even tried to steal the limelight from his fellow thespians. The theme of this well-balanced bit of pot pouri pointed up the con- troversy during the 14th century as to whether art, music and architec- ture should be purely religious or purely secular. Dr. Jack Beatty set the stage for -the scholarly discussions of PARI- SIAN men of letters, Drs. Purpus, Ballots Show ASUCR Favors Delay On Mascot As a result ofthe ballots cast by the ASUCR in elections May 12 it was decided that no immediate choice should be made as regards to a mas- cot. The count was as follows: Arabs, 16, Bearcats, 75 Condors, 6, Corsairs, 2 votes, and Falcons, 8 votes. How- ever, a large majority, 561voters, cast their ballots in favor of delaying the choice of mascot. A mandatory student activities fee was also approved by the large mar- gin of ,80 in favor and 17 against. D owever, as regards the amount to be charged the balloting was much closer, 40 in favor of a 37.50 fee and 43 in favor of a 310.00 per semester fee. Martha Beckley was chosen by the Associated Women Students to be Head Sponsor for Sponsor Week. Almost 8071 of the student body cast votes in the election. 9 of Riverside M IEKSES' WOM EN'S Fashion Clothes 3855 MAIN William Sharp, Edwin Simon and Francis Camey. These gentlemen in turn, at the special behest of scho- lar Sharp, went on to introduce the farce Pierre Patelin, which saw Pamela Payton and Dave Miller las the lawyer Patelin and his wifel, Bill Nelson Kas Jacques, the Draperl, Frank Mason fas Thibault Lambkin, the sheepherderl, and Dr. Beatty Cas the ludxcrously solemn judgel, tum in performances which, either individually or collectively, would be difficult to top. Coran McNair, Dr. Jerome Roth- enberg and Martha Beckley did an admirable job as the singers. A spe- cial aside is due Miss Beckley, whose melodious sole work did much to enchance the entire bit. Drs. Adelaide Brokaw, George Knox and Andre Malccot provided the singer's background music. Gene of Claremont fmore com- monly known as Dr. Eugene Pur- pusl and director William Sharp are especially to be commended for their delightfully inspired costum- ing and staging, respectively. Dr. Jean Boggs, although not present on the stage, was represented for the entire performance by her well- executed mural which hung behind the players in a centrally positioned spot. Much of the wittiest dialogue was taken up with a discussion of this very mural. Critically speaking then, I have not a leg to criticize on, so to speak. The farce was definitely one of the finest pieces of theatre ever to have been staged in Riverside. And-it has to be seen to be appreciated. The annual staff would appre- ciate students loaning snapshots of UCR students in action, parties, etc., for the snapshot sec- tion of the yearbook. UCR Welcomes H. S., J. C. Visitors On behalf of the staff of the UCR CUB may I extend a cordial welcome to all high school and junior college students visiting our campus today. We are happy that you have an opportunity to see the campus and its facilities of which we feel justifi- ably proud. .

We Wish you had the opportunity to sit in on our classes, to see our stu- dent government in action, and to attend some of the student body func- tions and parties. One cannot truly appreciate UCR unless he is a part of student life. However, we hope that by j tours throughout the campus and your contacts with student gu you will gain some appreciation the pride we all feel in UCR. May we hope you have a g time during your visit and may further hope we will see many you as students at UCR next fall jim St. Clair Managing Ed I would like to take this opj tunity to welcome, on behalf of Associated Students, all the l school and junior college stud who are visiting our campus todaj We, the first student body of college, are very proud of the f ties this campus has to offer.
