The incoming ASSC Senate will meet with Dr. Bernard Hy- i ink this afternoon at 3 in the ‘ Senate Chambers. 418 SU, as a part of ASSC President-elect Fill Steigerwalt’s “Little Idvll-wild" program.
The political science professor will lecture on legislative procedure before ihe 27-man group. He will discuss the function of committees, sub-committees and various other legislatee institutions.
Meeting Vital
Steigerwalt helievrs that such Informative meetings are a must ‘ for the new Senate as well as j for the new Executive Cabinet j so both group«; may learn something about the semantics and terminology of student government.
"In the past Senate action has b^en continually hindered by a lack of understanding of both the Senate problems and the structure and terminology of governmental proceedings,” the president-elect said.
Steigerwalt believes that the everyday problems of student government would be considerably reduced if the senators had a thorough knowledge of political semantics.
Solve Problem
"We hope to remedy the problem of understanding by teaching the senators the actual function of SC student government, beginning with the necessary terminology and parliamentary procedure, before they take office,” Steigerwalt explained.
The first step in Steigerwalt’s program was laken last night when the nine-man Executive Cabinet attended a meeting of the Torrance City Council to observe their methods of conducting business.

Faculty Club to View Forgotten City Pattern
By PENNY LERXOUX Assistant City Editor
The identification of American audiences with the conspirators in “Julius Caesar” is a natural one, feel Harald Dyren-forth and Fredric Gavlin, who will play the two leading conspirators against the imperial Roman dictator in SC’s forthcoming production of the Shake*-speare drama.
The play will be presented in Bovard. Auditorium, Thursday,-Friday and Saturday as well as I May 6 and 7 at 8:30 p.m.

U.S. Ma/.e
Gavlin, who will portray the hot-headed Cassius, agrees. “The U.S., which is actually a maze of democracy, often translates liberty into license,” he points out.
Psychologists have found that the idea of rebelling against ! democracy is actually very strong in America. Even the country’s founding fathers were European rebels and black sheep, and they have willed this ; spirit to their descendants, Dy-renforth believes.

nates American society, believes an SC philosopher.
Dr. William S. Snyder, assistant professor of philosophy, will explain his view that American education has become secularized tonight at 7:15 at the YWCA’s Facultv-Student Fireside.
In an informal tnlk entitled "Secularization of Higher Education." Dr. Snyder will point cut how educational values have changed in tiie past 50 years.
"Traditionally, higher education has been dedicated to the growth and development 01 v.hat we might call spiritual values, an inquiry into knowledge and the seeking of truth for its own «ake.” he feels.
Dr. Snyder maintains that higher education h^s always dealt with "sacred” things, and as long as it devotes itself to
cial graces and provide them with the proper status symbols in the form of a degree.
“To the extent that any institution of higher education becomes pi imarily concerned w ith such things as public opinion, the monetary value of education and attracting students in large numbers, its worth as an educational institution suffers,” he believes.
Dr. Snyder says that, to this exient. American higher education has become thoroughly secular.
“Higher education is no longer concerned with any ideals of significant worth in human life,” he adds.
He feels that this has been the general trend of higher education throughout the nation and

“However, within the last ."iO years, particularly in the United Stato>, higher education has become devoted to other ideals," he says.
Tomorrow, Dr. Colin R. Lovell, associate professor of history, will speak at the YWCA on "South Africa: I«and of Contrast and Conflict” in a continuation of the group’s talks.
Am INVESTIGATORS BEGIN TROJAN KNIGHT HEARINGS
The AMS investigating committee will begin the first of three hearings today to clear up charges hurled at the Trojan Knight service organization.
Chairman Mike Loshin, AMS president and Knight member, said that the committee will hear testimony from witnesses and from Knights involved in the selection procedure.
All findings will be released to Dr. Robert J. Downey, dean of students, at the completion of the hearings.
The four-man committee includes Ted Schmidt, AMS vice president: Don Wallerstein, AMS secretarv-treasurer; Dayle Barnes, Senate Executive Committee member; and Loshin.
The charges issued against the service organization include changing scores after the official test was graded, burning the tests without tradition involved, conducting the interviews without a faculty adviser and asking questions of a political nature which are not pertinent to a service organization.
Knights involved in the selection procedure have denied all of the charges on the grounds that they were completely false or inherent in the organization’s tradition and constitution.

Dr. William S. Snyder, assistant professor of philosophy, will explain his view that American education has become secularized tonight at 7:15 at the YWCA’s Facultv-Student Fireside. In an informal tnlk entitled "Secularization of Higher Education." Dr. Snyder will point cut how educational values have changed in tiie past 50 years. "Traditionally, higher education has been dedicated to the growth and development 01 v.hat we might call spiritual values, an inquiry into knowledge and the seeking of truth for its own «ake.” he feels. Dr. Snyder maintains that higher education h^s always dealt with "sacred” things, and as long as it devotes itself to cial graces and provide them with the proper status symbols in the form of a degree. “To the extent that any institution of higher education becomes pi imarily concerned w ith such things as public opinion, the monetary value of education and attracting students in large numbers, its worth as an educational institution suffers,” he believes. Dr. Snyder says that, to this exient. American higher education has become thoroughly secular. “Higher education is no longer concerned with any ideals of significant worth in human life,” he adds. He feels that this has been the general trend of higher education throughout the nation and these needs it cannot be consid- *s n°t unique to any one campus. ered a purely secular enterprise. “However, within the last ."iO years, particularly in the United Stato>, higher education has become devoted to other ideals" he says. Tomorrow, Dr. Colin R. Lovell, associate professor of history, will speak at the YWCA on "South Africa: I«and of Contrast and Conflict” in a continuation of the group’s talks. Am INVESTIGATORS BEGIN TROJAN KNIGHT HEARINGS The AMS investigating committee will begin the first of three hearings today to clear up charges hurled at the Trojan Knight service organization. Chairman Mike Loshin, AMS president and Knight member, said that the committee will hear testimony from witnesses and from Knights involved in the selection procedure. All findings will be released to Dr. Robert J. Downey, dean of students, at the completion of the hearings. The four-man committee includes Ted Schmidt, AMS vice president: Don Wallerstein, AMS secretarv-treasurer; Dayle Barnes, Senate Executive Committee member; and Loshin. The charges issued against the service organization include changing scores after the official test was graded, burning the tests without tradition involved, conducting the interviews without a faculty adviser and asking questions of a political nature which are not pertinent to a service organization. Knights involved in the selection procedure have denied all of the charges on the grounds that they were completely false or inherent in the organization’s tradition and constitution.
