AMS, AWS To Conclude Essay Contest
The deadline for turning in editorial critiques on how to improve the university is to day, AMS Administrative As sistant Phil Cchl said yester day.
Competitors should turn their editorials to the AWS of fice 362 SU. he said. AMS and AWS is offering a prize to the best critique.
The essay contest is part of the Improve Your School Week which is jointly sponsored by AMS and AWS.
Throughout the week booths were set up in front of Bovard Auditorium where students could discuss university problems with ASSC executive officers and senators.
ASSC President Bart Leddel, AWS President Pris Holbert and AMS President Hal Stokes led panel discussions in Town and Gown. Trojan Hall and Marks Hall Tuesday and Wednesday nights.
In addition the AMS and AWS placed suggestion boxes in key areas.
“This Improve Your School Week campaign has been extremely successful,” Cohl said.
Cohl, who is also a coordinator for all AMS committees, said the success was due to the booths, which were very effective in attracting students.
"Trojanes serving coffee to participating students also created a casual, relaxed atmosphere.” he noted.
Cohl said the trend of suggestions included longer library hours and extended lock out for women students.
“The most often voiced suggestion was for women song leaders,” Cohl said. Suggestions of this type came largely from male students, he noted.
Student suggestions will be Introduced to the ASSC Senate following tabulation of the suggestions, he explained.

Senator Sways-Not Sure on 64'
By VIRGINIA BODIN
Sen. Barry Goldwater, R-Ariz., said yesterday in an interview following his speech in Bovard Auditorium that he could not commit himself on his availability as a presidential candidate in 1964.
Contradicting a statement in his speech, in which he said he did not want to be President because the government is controlled by “bureaus and bureaucrats,” Goldwater said it actually would be difficult for him to commit himself at this time.
“If you had asked me that before I ran for the Senate my answer would have been a positive no,” he said. “Now you can never tell what might happen.”
Questioned about possible plans for 1968, he said, “That’s an awful long time off.”
Discussing the outcome of the 1964 election, Goldwater explained that it would be difficult to predict.
“In 1964 the situation might be that a Republican candidate will be in great demand, or perhaps Kennedy will be so popular at the time that another candidate will not have a chance against him.
“Anything that far away is difficult to predict, because too many things can happen,” he explained.
Commenting on the defeat of gubernatorial candidate Richard Nixon, Goldwater said he thought Nixon still had political potential.
“He certainly is not dead politically,” he emphasized.
Goldwater said he would rather speak at universities than any other place.
“I wish all I had to do was to speak to college students,” he said. “Usually I receive the most intelligent questions from students—on some things their parents probably never heard of.
“Sometimes they even refer to history to prove a point,” he noted. “When they do that, I usually concede.”

Squires and Spurs will join together in bringing Christmas spirit to children at the Los Angeles General Hospital this afternoon for the annual ASSC Christmas project, Chairman Bill Nardi said.
Members of the two service organizations, dressed in costumes, will pass out gifts to children in three different wards.
They will arrive at the hos pital at 3 p.m. and will stay with the children for the remainder of the afternoon for a party featuring singing, entertainment and gifts.
“The children will see three different types of entertainment,” Nardi said. “The first will be a magic show, the second a puppet act and the third a guitarist, singing folk songs and Christmas music.”

Walking the Wild Way
By PONCHITTA PIERCE Assistant to the Editor
“What have I done ... I didn’t mean it ... I was driving down the street and from out of nowhere was this man ... I couldn’t help but hit him . . . surrounded by traffic . . . couldn’t stop . . . what could I do ... I didn’t mean it.”
And so the bocks close on another case of the uncautious pedestrian vs. the unsuspecting driver.
“Of the 38,000 traffic deaths in 1961, 7,650 were pedestrians, with 137 occuring in Los Angeles alone,” reports Frank Crewe, safety director of the Greater Los Angeles Chapter of the National Safety Council.
Forty-six per cent of the national death total was made of the “risk takers” who—hoping to save time and energy by crossing in the middle of the street—step off the curb whenever possible, bringing motorists to a screeching stop.
Often the driver is to blame, but more often the pedestrian is responsible for his own execution. “Without respect for crosswalks and the stream of traffic coming, little old ladies hiding behind armloads of packages dart out from the middle of the block and expect cars to stoo in unison.
Youngsters pursuing a rolling ball or trying to catch a dcg before he runs into the street find themselves under the driver’s bumper with only brakes and divine providence to save them.
Teenagers wagering their safety against the velocity of approaching cars jump out from parked vehicles daring the driver not to stop. Spurred on by the false assurance that “pedestrians have the right of way,” they stake all on the assumption that the driver must stop.
But the driver didn’t stop for the 85 men and 52 women killed in local accidents last year.
“Pedestrians endanger themselves by walking out indiscriminately and fail to realize that they have to use a lot of sense for their own safety,” Crewe says. “More men than women were killed, possibly because most of the accidents occur in the business district of the cities.”
Crewe adds that because most of the accidents take place at night, the Safety Council asks everyone to cross at corners with signals, boulevard signs cr crosswalks to help them.
“With the increased shopping and possibility of inclement weather during the holidays, we also hope both pedestrians and drivers will be on guard for the busy season which last year took 1,150 lives,” Crewe says.
Helped by the three Es—engineering, education and enforcement — pedestrian fatalities have decreased by almost one half from the 1941 total of 13,500. But there's still a long road ahead.
will sing Christmas carols an the psychiatric ward and throughout the halls of the hospital.
Spurs will make preparations at the hospital before the arrival of the other students and will be in charge of distributing the gifts.
“This year’s project will be on a much smaller scale than before and will involve only about 60 people,” Nardi explained. “However, we feel that the program will be far more effective because of this.”
Last year’s trip to Rancho Los Amigos Hospital in Downey did not receive the response from students that had been expected, Nardi said.
“We feel that a smaller group of people will be easier to organize,” he added. “This year we will give presents to each child individually, instead of only passing out Christmas cards.
“Our main purpose is to cheer up these kids that are in the wards and to try to break up the monotony of their lives in the hospital.” he explained.
We are hoping that this year’s project will be the most successful one yet, Nardi said.
GOLDWATER - The senator's expressions change in tune to student questions which ranged from liberalism to Cuba. Trojans overflowed Bovard to hear him.
Backs Removal Of Tariff Wall
By DAN SMITH Daily Trojan City Editor
Arizona Sen. Barry Goldwater, considered by many to be the leader of the American conservative movement, yesterday strode into Bovar.i Auditorium to tell a near-capacity audience that he favored some seemingly liberal ideas.
Goldwater, considered one of five top candidates for the 1964 Republican presidential nomination, told an enthusiastic group that he favored Communist speakers on college campuses under given conditions and was also for the elimination of tariffs.
He explained that a real liberal “is a man who is always seeking more freedoms.” Goldwater said modem conservatives realize that change and innovation are needed, and they do not want to go backwards.
“Liberal ideas are phony and we should call liberals radicals,” he declared.
In response to student inquiries, Goldwater said he could see nothing wrong in having Communist speakers appear at university and college programs.
Injecting a word of caution, however, the senator said the speakers must be forced to subject themselves to a question and answer period.
“They will try to sell the idea that their movement is another political party and it is only in a question and answer period that you can bring out the real intent of the Communists,” he insisted.
Goldwater said he would like to see every tariff “thrown in the ocean.” He made it clear to his audience that he was not a protectionist.
“I have been a businessman, and I know how little a tariff means,” he said.
Goldwater championed the Peace Corps and technical assistance as a better means than economic foreign aid for helping other countries. He denied the possibility of monetary aid being a means of discouraging the Communist movements in underprivileged nations.
“If I thought economic aid would help fight Communism, I would vote for it,” th® senator explained.
The Arizonian noted one pattern in the 1962 elections, a pattern which he said had been developing for a long time.
He explained that a majority of the states outside of the South had not followed party lines, noting that states had selected leaders from both parties.
Goldwater explained that a party label is no longer a determining factor in elections. He warned that the “biggest danger” was that the party system might be eliminated and that candidates might be selected in the future on the basis of appearance rather than for their beliefs and stands on issues.
“I have never voted a straight party ticket because neither party can claim to have the best people all the way down the line,” he said. “But a politician needs an organization that he can depend on to get out the vote.”
Goldwater also noted an emergence of strength for the South during the elections that he claimed will bolster the party if Republicans don’t “shut the door on the South.”
Y to Host 25 Orphans
Twenty-five orphans will be; guests of honor at a YWCA Christmas party tomorrow at 1:30 at the YWCA.
