Senators Prepare
Installation Feast
The ASB Senate will hold its in¬
stallation banquet next Wednes¬
day at 7 a.m. in the faculty din¬
ing room. The senators, who were
elected to represent their 9 a.m.
Monday classes for the fall
semester, will be officially induct¬
ed into the representative body at
the morning ceremonies.
An inspirational speech on stu¬
dent leadership will be given by
Rev. Robert McClain of Westmin
ster Presbyterian Church. The
new senators will be sworn into
office by Dr. Catherine Robbins,
president of the college.
“This is the first time the Sen¬
ate has held an installation cere¬
mony,” pointed out Merrilee Har¬
ter, vice-president of the Senate
and coordinator of the event. “We
hope that it will help to add mean¬
ing and prestige to the office of
senator.” She added that another
innovation this semester is that
each senator will receive a mem¬
bership card.
All students and faculty mem¬
bers are invited to attend the in¬
stallation breakfast. Tickets
should be purchased in advance
for $1.25 at the College Bank.

Mississippi Rights Worker Sees
Barry Win in Southern State
“There is no doubt that Missis¬
sippi will go for Goldwater,”
Dave Owen commented last week.
Owen, a Mississippi civil rights
worker during the summer, con¬
ferred with Courier reporters
after speaking at a Young Demo¬
crats meeting.
“The Mississippi Democratic
Party will go for Goldwater,” he
said. “That is why the Mississippi
Democrats sent only unimportant
people to the convention. Thus
the loyalty oaths would not affect
the Mississippi party too severely.
Everyone at the convention
thought the Mississippi Demo¬
crats would support President
Johnson; those people weren’t too
informed.”
OWEN spent about three
months in Hattiesburg, Missis¬
sippi registering Negroes to vote.
He was in that Southern state
when the three civil rights work¬
ers disappeared. “Everyone wor¬
ried that he would get it too, but
none of us had a ‘let’s quit’ atti¬
tude. You learned to live with the
PCC Clubs Hold
Organization Day
PCC’s annual Student Organi¬
zations Day program will take
place tomorrow at noon.
Various clubs, honorary and
service fraternities, religious
groups, committees, and councils
will have representatives sta¬
tioned in rooms all over PCC.
These clubs will be represented
for the specific purpose of making
students aware of the organiza¬
tions’ existence, function, past
history and experience.
Some of the organizations will
present special speakers, show
films or movies related to their
group, or give demonstrations.
A bulletin will be available to
students containing room num¬
bers for the organizations.
fear you had.”
Owen encourages all interested
students to participate in the
civil rights program in Missis¬
sippi. “It reshapes one’s attitude
greatly about the underprivileg¬
ed.”
HE ALSO feels that being a
civil rights worker is of the ut¬
most importance if only to make
known the truth of what is hap¬
pening in the South. “Five Ne¬
groes were killed in Mississippi
from January, 1964, until we went
down there. No one in the coun-
Interdepartmental Activities
to Feature 'Lolita ' in Sexson
“Lolita,” the film based pn the
controversial novel by Vladimir
Nabokov, will be shown twice
next Monday in Sexson Auditori¬
um. The movie, which stars
James Mason, Peter Sellers and
Sue Lyon, will appear at 3:15 p.m.
and again at 7:30 p.m.
The film is being sponsored by
the Interdepartmental Activities
Commission. Tickets may be pur¬
chased for 50 cents at the Student
Bank, the Campus Center or from
Art and Music Council members.
Proceeds will be used to provide
scholarships to outstanding stu¬
dents.
The movie is the story of a
middle-aged man’s infatuation for
a young teenager. Mason gives
one of his strongest perform¬
ances, making his desperate ob¬
session for the amoral Lolita
crystal clear. Sellers, competing
with the older man for Lolita, is
a mysteriously prankish, evilly
mischevious character, played so
broadly that at times it seems as
if he were in a different film.
Miss Lyon, more woman than
child, is amazingly unaffected and
quite natural in her self-centered,
gum-chewing callousness. Shelley
Winters plays the love-starved
mother of the attention-getting
girl.
The mood-evoking photography
gives the proper background for
the drama’s turbulent emotion.
ASB Off iter Plans
Rise in Sthooi Spirit
Brian McDonald was elected ceived 99 votes, while Tom Leotti
president of the Freshman Class and Ed Gomez captured 80 and
try knew or cared about these
killings.”
At the present time, Owen is
living at his Pasadena home tak¬
ing a year off from Oberlin Col¬
lege (Ohio). He spends most of
his day campaigning for the de¬
feat of Proposition 14 which
would repeal the Rumford Act.
“I’m against Proposition 14,” he
said, “because when the welfare
of the whole society is threaten¬
ed by the privileges of a few of
its members, then the society as
a whole has a right to regulate
that minority.”

Psychology Prof,
Gardner Murphy
Speaks at Forum
World renowned psychiatrist,
Dr. Gardner Murphy, director of
research at the Menninger Foun¬
dation and professor of psychia¬
try, will discuss “New Knowl¬
edge of Human Potentialities”
next Tuesday at the Tuesday Eve¬
ning Forum at 8 p.m. in Sexson
Auditorium.
Dr. Murphy will recount the lat¬
est discoveries which psychiatric
research has made on how human
beings can uncover and develop
their creative potentialities.
DR. MURPHY received his PhD
from Columbia University in 1923
and taught there until 1940. He
became chairman of the Psychol¬
ogy Department at New York
City College in 1940. While at
NYCC he served as president of
the Eastern Psychological Associ¬
ation, of the American Psycholog¬
ical Association, and of the Soci¬
ety for Psychical Research in
London. During this time he pub¬
lished his chief systematic work,
“Personality: A Biosocial Ap¬
proach to Origins and Structure.”
He took part in various studies
in psychological research as ap¬
plied to international relations.
He and his wife went to India in
1950 at the invitation of the gov¬
ernment there. They took part in
the investigation and control of
“social tensions,” especially those
relating to the Hindu-Moslem con¬
flicts.
HE CAME to the Menninger
Foundation in September of 1952,
as director of research.
Long active in efforts to inves¬
tigate the social environment in
which mental disorder may devel¬
op, Dr. Murphy was instrumental
in the establishment at the Men¬
ninger Foundation, a program of
research on social aspects of ur¬
ban renewal and emotional corre¬
lates of rehabilitation.

AS PRESIDENT, McDonald
plans to work toward building
school spirit. He hopes to unify
the Freshman Class by selecting
a strong Frosh Council to coordin¬
ate activities. He feels that with
a council of hard-working stu¬
dents he can increase ASB mem¬
bership.
He would also like to create ri¬
valry between the two classes so
that campus spirit will increase
and school-sponsored activities
will receive a better response
from the students.
MCDONALD graduated last
spring from Arcadia High where
he was school photographer, and
worked on the campus newspaper
and yearbook.
He was a member of the Califor¬
nia Junior Statesmen of Ameri¬
ca, a campus organization that
has given him a good background
in leadership. CJS is a group of
approximately 3000 students in
high schools throughout Califor¬
nia and four other western states.
He served the organization in sev¬
eral officer capacities, including
Southern California pro tern pres¬
ident and California lieutenant
governor.

winning movie, as the featured

tion in Sexson Auditorium at

“Electra,” Euripides’ classic
Greek drama, has brought to the

der, and revenge which has cap¬
tured the imagination of the

The movie, filmed in Greece in
1961, was honored at all of the
1962 European film festivals.

the game of soccer, will be the co¬

Campus Religious Club
Sponsors YWCA Speech
The PCC Christian Science Or¬
ganization is inviting interested
students to attend a lecture by
William Milford Correll tomorrow
at 8 p.m. at the Pasadena YWCA.
Correll, a member of the board
of lectureship of the First Church
of Christ in Boston, has entitled
his speech, “Who’s in Control?”
The lecture will stress that hu¬
man events are controlled by
thought — the basic premise that
shapes the life of each individual.
Underlying all progress is the
growing vision of man’s spiritual
nature and destiny.
Afro-American for GOP
Lectures at YR Meeting
Tut Hayes, chairman of the Afro-Americans for Goldwater
Association, will be the featured speaker at the Young Republicans
meeting tomorrow at 12 noon in Sexson Auditorium. All interested
students are invited to attend.
Hayes is a 29 year old Marine Corps veteran and a native of
Chicago. He is a former student at the Los Angeles Art Center and
attended UCLA, Los Angeles CC, and LA Trade Tech.
“The Afro-Americans Association feels that the Republican Party
is based on Constitutionl government and individual freedom and
initiative,” Hayes recently said. “There is a consistency for self-help
and self-improvement among the individual.”
According to Hayes, the Afro-Americans Association is trying
to instill some self-respect into the Negroes. “We feel that Barry
Goldwater will entertain us and sanction us and recognize that we
do have self-pride and would like to help ourselves rather than
accept government welfare programs.”
All members of the Afro-Americans Association are college
students in social science areas.
