He judged the newspaper’s coverage, content, end physical properties. Last year the DT made 1720 and 1780 points for its fall and spring issues, respectively.
Thorough Coverage ‘‘Frankly, I am amazed by your outstanding and thorough coverage,” Hiebert wrote, praising the DT’s use of academic and research news.
He termed the 16-page Century Plan Homecoming edition ‘‘spectacular.”
Special tribute was given the sports page, 'edited last semester by Carl Strobel.
‘‘Your overall sports coverage certainly rates extra credit,” Hiebert said. “One thing I like is the variety. Mike Navarro does a fine job with his column. He’s got a lot of ‘pros’ beat.” Makeup on the sports page was classed as superior—"a big city daily look. In fact, the Los Angeles Times might be envious,” Hiebert said.
Page Commended The DT’s editorial page was commended especially for its outstanding features and columns. News style was rated excellent for the "good usts of color, quotes, and action words."
Superior ratings were given the DTs news sources, creativeness, speech and in review stories, and headlines — ‘‘good to see some clever headline writers in action.”
Editorial staff last semester included Susie McBee, editor; Paul Wasserman, managing editor; Rich Reid, city editor; Darlene Hall, women’s editor; Fred Burgh, feature editor; Strobel, sports editor; and Rachel Lee and Ernie Gilmour, photography editors.

Judge Says It s Hard To Sell Safe Driving
You can sell an American anything from a turnip shredder to cough syrup for canaries, but his I sales resistance is tremendous when he is asked to buy lives by safe and civilized driving, Superior Court Judge Roger A. Pfaff said here Saturday.
Like peace, however, traffic safety is a saie that hasn't been made, Judge Pfaff said in the keynote address opening the 4th annual conference of the California Driver Education Association.
An American Is killed every 15 minutes and another is injured every 20 seconds by traffic accidents, Judge Pfaff told more than 300 teachers and school administrators.
We have killed more of our fellow citizens by automobiles

Brawny Men Will Qualify For Brawl
All sophomore and freshmen men possessing strength, stamina, and hefty shoulders will qualify for pushing duty for Friday's annual "Soph-Frosh Brawl.”
The two classes will take the field at Bovard at 2 p.m. to see who can push a huge 25 foot leather ball the farthest.
Three-legged races and egg-throwing battles are also scheduled for the afternoon's brawling.
“We're going to need some hefty ball pushers," Linda Ralls, freshman council president said. "It takes about 20 men to even move the leather ball borrowed from Whittier College for the battle.”
The "Brawl” party will move to the parking lot at Stun Hall's at 4 p.m. for the remaining entertainment. A Dixie land band will provide music for the party.
"You can bat your brains out for free at the brawl, but the party at Stan Hall's will cost 50 cents,” Bill Jackson, freshman chairman, said.
Tickets go on sale today In front of the Student Union or may be purchased from cruncil members.
than we have lost In all the wars in which the United States has ever fought, including the Revolutionary War, he said.
“In the early days of the West the two-gun man would come to town on Saturday afternoon and after a few drinks would proceed with impunity to shoot up the place. Today he would be promptly locked up.
“Reckless and irresponsible drivers are just as passe today as the two-gun man was yesterday.”
Judge Pfaff said he has always been unhappy with the term "driver education,” which seems to indicate that schools are primarily concerned in teaching the mechanics of physically operating a car.
He- suggested Traffic Safety Education as a more appropriate and descriptive name.
"Traffic safety education may also produce an entirely unexpected dividend,” he said. “Children are quick to detect, critl cize and condemn conduct they believe improper.
“Let us hope that a new generation of motorists dedicated to decent driving will not only reduce the traffic hazards of the future but will also coerce their parents to adopt a new code of courteous motor manners and thereby reduce the traffic hazards of today."

Owsowitz Says Balloting Was Clean, Smooth
After nearly one hour of parliamentary scuffling and wading through red tape, the Senate yesterday finally approved last Friday’s election with a few exceptions.
Elections Commissioner Sid Owsowitz reported that last week’s election was one of the “cleanest and smoothest” he could recall.
Owsowitz’ report recommended that all elections be approved except that of the sophomore vice president, education president, and engineering president and vice president.
Sophomore Race
In the race for sophomore vice president, Rosemary Fankhariel cornered 294 of the votes to opponent Nancy Crook's 247. Miss Crook protested the election,
Owsowitz reported, on the grounds that her name was misspelled on thé ballot.
After an Involved debate, the Senate voted to uphold Miss Fankhanel’s election.
The Senate then quizzed newly-elected Education President Barbara Irvine on her qualifications for the office. Owsowitz had previously questioned her right to hold that office.
Debate Ensued
A heated debate ensued after Miss Irvine produced signed statements and other documents proving her eligibility. The Senate, voting on the issue, decided that Miss Irvine was qualified to keep her office.
Following Owsowitz’s urging, the Senate approved a runoff election between the candidates for engineering president and vice president. In the former race, neither Larry Lewis nor John Watenpaugh received enough votes to be elected. It was the same situation with engineering vice president. Neither Bob Meads nor Paul Jollie received the necessary number of votes.
During the ensuing wrangle,
In which the Senate tried to decide when and where the runoff election should be held, Owsowitz asked newly-elected AMS President Bob Meads If he intended to “resign from the AMS office and then run for engineering vice president.”
Engineer Race
Meads assured the commissioner that he would rather withdraw from the engineering race.
The Senate finally decided to hold the runoff election tomorrow, from 9:30 to 3:30 p.m., In front of the Engineering Building.
Owsowitz stipulated that votes may be cast only for candidates whose names are on the ballot.
‘‘Write-In ballots will be void,” he said.
Results will be announced to the Senate that night.
Yesterday's special meeting is customary following general elections. In that the newly-elected candidates cannot take office until their elections have been approved by the Senate.
Senate Schedules Early Meeting
Even Daylight Saving Time doesn’t make things early enough for the ASSC Senate.
Student Body President Jerry McMahon announced yesterday that tomorrow's Senate meeting will be moved up from 7 to 6:15 p.m. so that tbs Senators can attend the Trojan Choraliers Concert.
He announced that tomorrow Is the deadline for final imports by all ASSC Commute* Chairmen.
Rusty Violins, Cymbals, Popguns To Highlight Macbeth' Next Week
Hedgehogs, thunder, wind, drums, cymbals, crickets, hoof-beats, gunshots . , .
These aren’t remnants of a Main Street pawn shop, a mid-western tornado, or a Hollywood western.
They are part of the 38 sound effects which Director Howard Banks is now trying to Integrate into the background of his "Macbeth” production, in rehearsal at Stop Gap Theater.
Real Realism "Macebeth" will climax the drama department season when it opens for a five day run next Tuesday at 8:30 p.m. in Bovard Auditorium.
Professor Banks, trying to create a realistic effect for th« battle of Dunsinane between Macbeth and Malcolm and Mac-Dull, bs iscorduig tbtw »©and«
on tape and records for the production.
Contrary to the usual production of Shakespeare’s masterpiece, usually performed in five acts, Banks has changed the structure of the SC presentation to only two acts.
“The banquet scene Is the culmination of Macbeth's change from mental to physical anguish," said Banks. "He feels he is in so far after killing Duncan and Banquo that there is no turning back. This was a logical ending for a first act,” Banks explained.
PU; of Action
W^hile Banks feels "Hamlet” Is the greatest and most provocative of Shakespeare's plays, he thinks "Macbeth” has more the
which fascinated medieval audiences.
"I like ‘Macbeth’ because it is a play of action and It gives great evidence of the spiritual and moral disintegration of its two main characters (Macbeth and Lady Macbeth), which causes Macbeth to commit three crimes in order to obtain what they both want.”
Triple Trouble
The three crimes which Macbeth commits, sccording to Banks, are:
1—The	crime of ambition, which was th* murder of Duncan.
2—Th*	crlm* of n • e e s si t y, which was the murder of Ban-
quo.
3—The	crime of revenge, which was the murder of Mac-
aterical quality and greater ap- I auffa wif* and childran. pMi bscsuM U Um dwuutiutogy |	*■	Although you do not hav* all
of the philosophical soul-searching of “Hamlet," you do have many passages where Macbeth analyzes the price he has to pay to achieve his ambition of becoming king of Scotland," Banks added.
The noted Shakespearean dl-lector said he wants to present Macbeth and Lady Macbeth as humsns caught in their driving ambition for power, not as the monsters that Malcolm calls them in the play when he refers to "this dead butcher snd his fiend-like queen.”
Tickets for “Macbeth" may be purchased from the University Ticket Office, the drama department office, or the Bovard Box Office the night of the performance. Admission is $1. Students with activity cards will b* admitted Ire*.
