God, Russians To Be Topic For Sermon

Dr. Marcus Bach, professor of religion at the University of Iowa, w'ill preach at the non-rienominational Sunday Morning Worship Service at 11 a.m. in Bovard Auditorium.
“God and the Soviets” is the tille of Dr. Bach's sermon, in which he will give his impres-*,ons of the interviews he has had with Russian students and church leaders during a tour in Russia.
Rfflwt* Book
His sermon will reflect tome of the material of his book, al- j *o titled “God and the Soviets," j which shows how' a friendly man can secure an open and friendly response from those he meets.
Dr. Bach will also comment about the challenge which the religious faith among the Russian people will make to our own religious faith here in America and on American campuses.
It is his conviction that we understand people best when we understand what they believe, and we best discover what they believe when we put ourselves in their place.

Grad Series To End With Christianity
After exploring the different religious beliefs of the Hindus, Buddists, Reform Jews and Muslims, the Graduate Student Organization will discuss the ramifications and history of Christianity.
In the last of the Graduate “Religion" series. Episcopal Chaplain Michael Hamilton will speak on “Christianity.” today nt noon in the Episcopal Centre n^xt to Owens Hall.
“Now it will be time for one denominational expression of Christianity to take the stump." Chaplain Hamilton said.
“The exclusive and unique claims of Christianity in its traditional forms are always a block to non-Christians." he continued.
"How do vou know you are right?” is the question that Chaplain Hamilion said was frequently thrown at him.
“My only answer can be that I don't know," he retorted.
“One of my problems is trying to deal with the ignorance of the average student on religious matlers.” he added. "He knows far more about the engineering of the I960 cars than he does about his faith or lack of it."
Chaplain Hamilion said that fhe^e «indent«, with this lack of faith, still presume himself competent to make judgments.
“Tn this group we try and make reliable information about the various religions available to inquirers,” he said.
He explained that this group of graduate students is primarily composed of Non-Christians and Christians are not even encouraged to ait«nd.
"Freedom of Speech and honesty of e\preecjnn is encouraged and critic« are valued for their possible new in-iehts." the chaplain concluded
lie added that sack lunches >.e the order of tlie dav.
Contribution results show Sigma Chi as leading fraternity donor with 27 pints, Alpha Iota Pi with 22 pints. Phi Delta Chi, Kappa Alpha, and Theta Xi follow with 16, 13, and 15 pints respectively.
In class competition first place was taken by the juniors who gave 70 pints. Sophomores and seniors trailed wilh 48 and 46 pints, while the freshman class produced 37 pinis.
Feldman again pointed out that giving blood is a painless process which saves thousands of people from painful suffering and death each year.
He said that Trojans can give a pint of blood every 12 weeks with no more strain on their health than an afternoon of exercise.
Denny Metzler, publicity chairman, explained that it takes only 15 minutes to give blood and that short process could save someone's life.
Class presidents Dayle Barnes, Bill Steigerwalt, Hugh Helm and Steve Bershad urged the members of their respective classes to participate in the drive.
Representative speakers have be-\n urging fraternity and sorority members and campus organizations to support the drive, hut Feldman added, “We also need the support of the administration. faculty and university employees.”
ASSC Senate Might Pretest Dixie Arrests
Mistreatment of students by policemen and courts in the South will be officially protested by the ASSC Senate if NSA Legislative Councelor Stan Gottlieb's motion passes at its next meeting.
Gottlieb told the Daily Trojan last night that the Senate will he asked to file petitions and send letter« to Southern governors and Tennessee congressmen for the mishandling of students arrested during non-violent sit-ins during February's school problems.
He said that he would ask the Senate to support an NSA move to stop the trials of more than 50 students scheduled on the March-April docket.
Farcical Trials
United Stales National Student Association issued several official protests late in February when USNSA Southern staff member, Connie Curry, called the Nashville “trials” a farce.
She reported that official court sentiment seemed to run *against the students on trial from the beginning.
"The first student who was convicted of disorderly conduct and fined $10. had be**n arrested after the sit-ins. when he tried to visit his friends already inv jail.” Miss Currv s^id.
She explained lhat 1h° only way he could visit his friends already in jail was to be arrest- i ed himself, she continued.
“So Arrest Me”
“So arrest me,” he cried and he was promptly arrested in the : police station and convicted in court on charges of disorderly conduct.
During the trial, Nashville police testifying for the prosecution were forced to admit that the Negro and white students on trial were not actually involved in any disorderly conduct, she said.
"This evidence, how .»ver, was rot considered in any of the verdicts,” she maintained.
Latest developments on the nationwide student protest which SC will join if Gottlieb's motion is passed next Wednesday, include student demonstrations at nearly all major colleges.
300 Students
Lehigh University had a 300 student delegation which collected enough funds to send telegrams to six Southern senators and two Tennessee congressmen.
Harvard University, Rodcliffe College. Skidmore College. Springfield College, Columbia and many other universities were also voicing official complaints on the Southern action.
At the University of California. Berkeley, students were demonstrating and passing out mimeographed pamphlets called “U.S. Students for Racial Equality-"
Signatures were also being collected on a petition.
“The SC student body can join in this civil liberties fight, if their Senate votes if through next week,’* Gottlieb said.
Trojans Win Fellowships
Four SC students were awarded Woodrow Wilson Fellowship« yesterday granting them a full year of tuition-free graduate work at the college of their choice.
Allan Cutler, history; James Hopkins, music; Joseph .Morales, International relations and David Smith, sociology; were awarded the grants. Three other SC students received honorable mention.
The four men will be urged to consider college teaching as a career.
Dr. Colin R. Lovell, professor of history and local sponsor of the program, pointed out that the chief purpose of the fellowships is to offset the critical shortage of qualified college teachers by encouraging college seniors of outstanding ability to consider academic careers.

last evening, there were no takers.
Promising the student body a greater voice in the determination of their own affairs. Steigerwalt; said he decided to become a candidate “because of the impending crisis of the next school year for student government, and student activities in general on campus.”
It appeared that Steigerwalt would win the post by default unless an opponent should petition for the job sometime today. Five o'clock this afternoon is the deadline for all petitions for all student body offices.
Rattle Royal
On the distaff side, storm clouds were gathering for a battle royal betw-een two members

Steigerwalt. in addition to being this year’s Junior Class President, was ch a i r m a n of Greater University Committee and last year's Blood Drive.
Candidate Kelly is chairman of the standing Senate Social Committee, was executive secretary of this year's Homecoming Committee and was chairman of the Trojan Chest “Mr. Trojan-ality” contest committee.

“The Senate has the power to make studies, reports and recommendations to the president of the university in any and all matters pertinent to the wellbeing of the university,’* he said, reading from the body’s constitution.

High School - Junior College Relations Chairman Sharon Kelly an dher Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority sister, Marianne Arrington, squared off in what promises to be the most interesting battle of the election.
The contest will probably make the residence at 716 W. 28th st. a “house divided against itself” during the next few weeks of electioneering.
Steigerwalt’» apparent lack of competition for the presidency is without parallel in the history of SC student politics.
The Junior Class President was one of the framers of the new' constitution and bylaw's jvhich have been promised by its proponents to revolutionize, modernize and stimulate student activities.
College Recognition Steigerwalt promised that he w'ould carry the student fight for greater recognition “all the way to the school administration, hoping that, together wre can place SC in a par w'ith the leading universities in the country.
“It is high time a «tudent leader sincerely approached the students with a courageous and strident leadership in organizine a single, strong student voice J which w ill be heard and respected not only in the land of Troy but throughout the country,” he said.
ASSC President W'allv Kara-bian hailed Steigerwalt as “one j of the most outstanding men in student government and it would certainly be a tribute to Bill if he did run unopposed.”
Other student leaders joined Karabian in praising Steiger- j wait’s record on the senate and as Junior Class President.
“It (the so-called Steigerwalt Plan, which w'as passed unanimously by the Senate last week and provides for an organization
administration.
“Members of the executive committee have the privilege each month of discussing with President Topping matters of common concern,” he said.
Democratic Structure
Dr Robb also maintained that the democratic structure of the Senate made it an effective voice in the university.
The 74-member Senate is an elected body consisting of faculty representatives popularly chosen within the various schools and departments for a two-year terms.
Ex-officio members, including the chancellor, president, the several vice presidents and deans, the chaplain and university librarian, serve on the Senate in a non-voting capacity.
Members Cfcosen Annually
Elected members are chosen annually, with half the terms expiring one year and the other half the following year. According to the constitution, no member may remain on the Senate for more than four consecutive years.
John Crown, professor of piano and another member of the Senate, agreed with Drs. Robb and Brown on the value of the Faculty Senate in the structure of the university.
“Undoubtedly, it is one of Ihe most valuable methods of faculty communication to the administration and Board of Trustees,’ he said.
(Editor's Note: This is the second in a series of articles on the problem of “publish or perish" and how it affect* SC.)
By JOE SAI.TZMAN Daily Trojan City Editor Dr. Russell L. Caldwell, associate professor of history, said yeslerday that he accepted the position of SC Faculty Club president fully aware that he was postponing, for at least another year, any possibility of promot ion.
The history teacher said that he could not give full time to building a faculty club and still write the necessary quota of publication needed in his field for promotion from associate professor to full professor.
Emphasing that he is willing to go along with any stated university po icy. Dr. Caldwell explained that when offered the position for the second time, the comment was made to him that President Topping thinks things like that should count towards promotion and that something should be done about it.
"But I replied that it doesn’t make much difference what the president thinks, or the vice president, or the dean, because lit* present system of promotion
is by recommendation of your peers in your department,” he said.
“Your peers or the full professors in your own department and division judge \ou on the basis of publication,” he declared.
“They don’t care if you have built two faculty clubs in a year,” he continued. "They don’t care if you serve on important committees and give time which they won’t.
“So, in theory the administration is for it, but in fact, your peers take a dim view of it and they are your peers because they have published,” Dr. Caldwell said.
“When I took over as faculty club president, I knew that by serving the university in this capacity, and not writing, I would get no promotion.”
Dr. Caldwell, a specialist in American history, said that the peers most assuredly put the emphasis on publishing not teaching because many of them are not very scintilating as teachers themselves.
Affirming the fact that SC practices a modified form of “publish or perish,” Dr. Caldwell said that to achieve the
status of tenure on the associate professor level, it's almost required that publishing be done.
“If one wants to be a full professor today, there wouldn't be the slightest chance that he would be promoted if he did not publish,” he said.
He explained that the associate professor trying for a full professor position would probably not perish, but just be stopped in his tracks.
“If a person did not have the associate professorship, he probably would perish here at SC,” he added. “That is, he would be eased out and that would be it.” Dr. Caldwell said that he felt he could write as well as he could teach and that he would follow this policy soon.
“I am now actively seeking grants to go into hiding (away from telephones and away from students and away from the university for a long enough time to turn out the writing I want to do,” he said.
“And it is conceivale that I’ll be gone next year or maybe two or three or four year* in order to do this.”
Dr. Caldwell explained that this brings up an important question:
If we adopt a policy which forces those who are teaching to go into hiding and not to teach, and not to work with students, are we doing the right thing?
He said as things stand now, a person may be a very good teacher and give valuable time to university and community service but if he has not published, it is very doubtful whether or not be will be promoted.
He claimed that the professor who wants to help the student by taking valuable time from his “research” is penalized.
“The people w ho are doing the publishing are hiding from the students,” he said. “They're just not here most of the time.”
He said that the good answer lies in Dr. Topping taking a strong stand on the matter of a general university policy and that the university mast decide. Ihrough him, whether they want
all research men, all teachers or a combination of both the research man and the teacher.
