189 Freshmen To be Feted By University
A record-breaking 1K9 freshmen will be honored this afternoon for outstanding high school scholastic records at the Honors-at -Entranee Convocat ion.
The recognition program will be held at 3 p.m. in Hancock Auditorium, with the honored freshr en, their families, and members of the university's ad-•minist ative r-taff and faculty attending.
Dr. Ross N. Berkes, diredor of iho School of International Relations and president of the university chapter of Phi Beta Kappa, will address the honors-at-entrance students. He will speak on the topic "Some Hoi :hts in Higher Education.” Chaplain Clinton A. Neyman, acting dean of students, will preside at the convocation, with Gerald Ray Jordan. Jr., instructor in the Department of Religion. offering the invocation and benediction. ASSC President Larry Sipes and Dr. Albert S. Raubenheimer, educational vice-president, are also scheduled to address t lie group.
Joining in the recognition program as special guests will be members of campus scholarship groups, academic deans and directors, and members of the student Senate*.

Mistake Cited By Medico
A big mistake among medical educators today is that they appear to be trying to produce ! a “finished product” on graduation day . said Dr. Phil R. Man- I ning, assistant professor of medicine at SC.
Dr. Manning, published in the the SC Medical that as a result of “forced mem-ori/.' tion." medical students tend to regard medical education as a four-year job rather than a lifelong pursuit.
Complete Coverage Attempted Medical educators, in attempting 1o give the student complete coverage in medicine by presenting a storehouse of materia! in ihe form of lectures, are smothering “the excitement and stimulation of true learning," Dr. Manning said.
"A distinction lie tween memorization and learning is not made," he declared. "The student. therefore, spends his time memorizing but not learning.” Leads to Boredom Such a program. Dr. Manning warned, leads to boredom and resistance to learning. As a counter-measure, be proposed that medical schools work out a philosophy emphasizing the development of the studonl s in-lerest and his ability to utilize his knowledge.
"Active ^participation in the learning process. the doctot said, "releases the student's creative attributes and intensifies
Special Senate Session Called For Tonight
By LARRY FISHER
The ASSC Senate will meet in special session tonight to form a "workable plan of action” which would forestall a repetition of the hurling of flash cards at football

The cards, used in the traditional half-time card stunts, were hurled in the air -—

by "disorderly” rooters at last Friday's game against Pittsburgh.
At the Idyllwild conference of student leaders last weekend, a special meeting was held and a resolution adopted which condemned the action of the riotous students.
Considerable disapproval of the resolution was voiced, however, because many students felt that the mountain retreat was not the proper place to discuss regular Senate business. As a consequence. ASSC President Larry Sipes agreed to the special meeting to discuss the situation.
"We all felt that immediate student action was necessary,” declared Sipes, "because the rooters will be going to Cai next week and this game is notorious for its conduct.”
The tentative plan, awaiting student action, calls for the expulsion of any student found “disorderly or obnoxious” in the rooting section.
In addition. Sipes asked that any campus organizations which
Other factors involved were the delay in the stunts due to the band performance and the fact that it was the first time that TroySCope had ever been attempted at night.
“We know that, a combination of factors created the situation.” said Dr. Robert Gordon, associate dean of students, "and ; we doubt that it would occur ! again. “The university can't con-i done such behavior, however,’* he said, “but it is strictly a student problem, and I know the students themselves w ¡11 work out a solution to the problem.” At a special meeting held Monday between Dr. Gordon, j Knight officers.

Audible si'-'als made by ihe Russian ea. h satellite were heard yesterday by members of the SC amateur radio club.
Gary Barry, president of SC’s Radio Amateurs, W6SNV, located the signal and Ron Mala-nosky, a member, identified the signal as the earth satellite. First contact was established at approximately 10 a.m. .and the signals were heard spasmodically for 15 minutes.
The next contact was established at 1:30 p.m. with the signal lasting three minutes. The satellite is located approximately ."S60 miles from earth at present, and is above the ionosphere.
Atmosphere Cuts Signal
According to Barry, the signal should be heard approximately every hour and 34 minutes, but due lo atmospheric conditions the signal isn’t always audible.
The satellite passed over San Francisco at 10:05 a.m. Monday. Its estimated speed is 18.085 miles per hour. Through this info r m a t i o n plus other facts. Barry, Box Osborne, vice president; Art Freed, secreary treasurer: and Malanosky were able to calculate when contact should he established. They were within five minutes of being exact.
FCC Clears Frequency
Barry said that there could be no mistaking this as the Russian satellite because the FCC cleared the frequency. The signal was picked up on a 20 megacycles frequency hand through the club’s amateur receiving equipment, and was recorded on

a Sanborn Graph Recorder.
When the satellite passed within range of the receiver, an eerie sounding “beep ‘ vibrated i licensed

Dr. Manning also struck out at the lack of concern for student -pa t ient relationships.
A Surprising Point "It in, surprising,” he noted, “’hat m a profession which deals so predominantly with interpersonal relationships, this aspect or training a physician has been so neglected.”

By CHARLES FULKERSON
A “crash research program" is necessary' to offset the lead being set hy Russia in the rocket and missile field, according to Dr. Willard Geer, associate professor of physics.
"Russia.” Dr. Geer said, "has shown significant headway in rockets and in order to keep clear of a possible threat vve must forge ahead with a new research and educafion program.”
Dr. Geer said that the satellite which Russia has launched seems from all reports to he about the weight which they have reported. And if this is true, quite a number of instrument readings may be received by Soviet scientists, he added.
C.S. Planned Satellite
"The satellites that have been planned by the United States are supposed to weigh around 22 pounds,” Dr. Geer said.
“And if our satellite can pro- I duce four to s i x instrument readings with that weight, sure-; lv Russia’s with 184 pounds will produce more more,” he added.
"The ability to place and guide such a heavy satellite into an accurate orbit.” the professor said, "is a clear indication that they could also launch a much heavier nuclear warhead to any target in the United States.”
Russian Threat Deterra lit
According to Dr. Greer, the possibility of quick retaliation is the onl.v deterrent to the Russian threat. However, he said that the lead in missiles may put them in the position to block ail retaliatory efforts with small defensive missiles.
"If Russia reaches the point of controlling the intercontinental ballistics missile before our engineers can devise a defense j against it. they could dominate the world ” the professor said.
"The alternative is a much increased research and educa-in the race with Russia,” I>r. Geer said. He feels that the race will lasl until the social and economic altitudes of Russia develop to the point where the tion plan that will keep us even "long range folley of w a r is realized."
Threshold of Spare
Dr. Geer said that few people realize that we are on the threshold of man’s leaving the earth, and fewer people realize the im-| parlance of tins event in the history' of man.
It tile race is to stay even, and peace is not endangered, a “vast” amount of money must ini »pent, according to Dr. Geer,,
and compensation will lie space travel sooner than expected.
The physisist said that the
homing devices in ICBMs can be quickly and easily transferred to aircraft and automobiles and for use as safety’ devices.
“The U.S. is now able to build a missile that will go where-ever it is sent.” he said.
Ike’s Attitude Discussed
When asked about the President's remarks on the satellite. Dr. Geer said he feels that Mr. Eisenhower had much the same attitude as most Americans. This attitude is that the U.S. was ahead in the Rocket field.
“Reports from several places in the U.S. indicates.” said Dr. Geer, "that the Russian satellite is probably at an altitude of about .i00 miles. If this is true, it could he seen from a distance of about 2500 miles.”
Must Make Tests
Dr. Geer said that science ha* developed to a point where man must make tests such as the present Russian one to eliminate the theories that are not correct.
He feels that vve "must” increase our present rate of investigation to avoid world domination by Russia.
