A twenty man life raft has been purchased to (Continued on Face Two) gists- Attend Sixteen states were' represented in. a national conference of more than:?- college and high.sohool biology-department chairmen and teachers- meeting on Stetson. University's DeLand "campus this summer. Their purpose? To evaluate the program which allows high school students who pass advanced placement tests in biology to be excused from college introductory courses in the subject. Dr. Frank Carpenter, Harvard University biology professor, told the group that out .of several hundred students allowed advanced placement in biology at Harvard, only one had made a failing mark in second level, courses and only cue in 32 got a D. This is a b.etter record than those students who take .Harvard's own introductory biology course, according to Carpenter. Dr. E. C. Prichard, chairman of Stetson's biology department; called the conference informative and stimulating. He feels that the advanced placement program is distinctly worthwhile. The national biology conference was a - cooperative effort ■ of the College Entrance Examination Board, New York City, and Stetson University. Participants were in attendance from Colorado, Pennsylvania, New York, Ohio, Oklahoma, Tennessee, New Hampshire, Indiana, Virginia, Texas, Massachusetts, Delaware, Connecticut, Illinois, Georgia, and Florida. "The fundamental principle behind any advanced placement course is that the academically talented student should be allowed to function at a level that is commensurate with his mental potential," Alex Herskowitz, College Board representative, told the group. That is, the student who is able to pass an exam in a subject, should then move en to more advanced work. The advanced placement program encourages high schools to provide opportunities for talented students to do college level work while they are still in secondary school. ' Advanced placement exams are given throughout the country in May. Exam results are then sent to colleges which the students will attend, and the colleges determine if.credit can be granted. Stetson University has been a participant in the Advanced Placement Program for three years. High school students presenting acceptable scores."on tests can secure ■ academic placement and credit on entering as Stetson freshmen.

BY JOHN PICKERING One-Eyed Jacks'begins with a classic Western situation: quiet, enigmatic Rio (Marlon Brando) comes riding up to the house of an old pal Dad Longworth (Karl Maiden) a jovial sheriff. Five years ago Dad and Rio were outlaws trapped on a hilltop by police and Dad took a powder. Rio spent five years in jail, and broke out, thirsting for vengeance. So what' happens? Dad politely offers to shoot it out, if Rio wants. Why no, says Rio and they sit on the front porch and talk over old times. From this point on viewers should be prepared for one of the most intriguing Westerns ever made. Although there is plenty of action, the film's main interest lies in the eternal duel between appearance and reality. It is In this context that'the film title becomes understandable. One-eyed jacks are people who like the -card, show only one-half of their face to the world. Rio, an ambiguous hero at best, is also a liar who fakes love for Dad's daughter only to find himself shamed and then in love. As for Dad, the film is near its end before one is sure what his other side Is like. There is no biff-biff-bam or simple biting of the dust in this one,-unless one* considers Rio's hand is being crushed with the butt of a gun after he had taken a terrible whipping or the shooting to death of a little girl as mere kid-stuff7 However, there are tender moments such as the love scenes between Rio and Dad's daughter or the moment when the daughter confesses her guilt to her mother, which is done in a delicate but touching way. Karl'Maiden as the sheriff is convincing; Pina Pel- licer plays the girl with charm, and Kathy Jurado is good as the mother. But as in every other film he .has made, the movie is dominated by Brando. He speaks in a dead-lipped drawl, and his eyes are' shrewd, and he'somehow transmits the same character he always plays, the only character, who seems to interest him: Marlon Brando. However, there is one moment in which he conveys a unique feeling: after he is beaten, he sits on the bank of a river, shaken and drained both physically and pschologically — an effect that is both devasting and idelible. One-Eyed Jacks was begun in 1958 and was finally finished in 1960 after six million dollars had been spent, and over five hours of film had been exposed. The result is a film of high achievement that is beautiful in sight strong in direction,- and subtle in action — a combination that provides a perfect harmony from start to finish.

Signs, Paving, Buildings Are Added To Campus Extensive alterations, along with a paint-up, fix-up, re-furbishing campaign, have noticeably improved facilities all over Stetson University's DeLand campus. Dr. John Johns, University Baptists Lead Church Goers . Sunday mornings at. Stetson Uni versity find groups ofystudents at: tending many of, the churches in tlie vicinity of the DeLand campus. Largest groups of student church-goers attend the First Baptist Church, St. Barnabas Episcopal Church, and the First Presbyterian Church, all within easy walking- distance of the campus. Other, churches attended by a considerable number of students are Trinity Methodist, Stetson Baptist, Faith Lutheran, the First Christian Church, Northside Baptist, and St. Peter's' Catholic. The religious youth groups at the college and in the churches schedule many extra-curricular activities that provide good fellowship. Vespers, held every Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday in Allen Hall, the Baptist religious center on the Stetson campus, are planned by a council of students representing various religious backgrounds. All students are invited to attend these services which are held at 6:30 p.m. Eight Grads At St. Pete Eight Stetson University students have begun their first year studies on the College of Law campus in St. Petersburg with one-year full tuition scholarships, according to Harold L. Sebring, dean of the Stetson Law School. • Recipients for the awards are selected annually from a long list of applicants on the basis of their undergraduate academic achievement, potential capacity for leadership, and financial need. The scholarship winners are James G. Gagnon, Larry K. Meyer, William Penrose, Christopher F. Sapp, and Clark W. Yeakle IH, all of St. Petersburg; Sammy Cacciatore Orlando; Bruce McKinley, James- burg, N. J., and Anthony, I. Provitola, E. Northport, N. Y. Miami Hosts Team Stetson University's rifle team last Friday travelled to Miami to engage in an interschool rifle meet. Stetson's team is coached by Captain Joe Brown and M-Sgt. Paul McCroy. The rifle team will compete in the Tampa Invitational, 3rd Army shoulder to shoulder match, National Riflemen Association Florida section match and the National Randolph Hearst Rifle Match. The rifle team will have six home matches, facing Florida Southern, F.S.U., U.' of Florida, and Miami.- There are twenty members on the team. They have elected Cadet Major Robert Hatthews and Cadet First Sgt. .Bill Stark and co-captains for the team. Stetson has fared well in the past in rifle competion and they are looking forward to another successful year. business, manager, said most of the physical changes being undertaken on the Stetson plant have been made possible by the first check received as a part of Ford 'Foundation grant to .the University. • When' these projects are added to the recently finished wing on. Emily Hall and the .new library construction, then the campus* will take on a "new look," Johns said. Elizabeth Hall and the -Car. negie-Sampson library have new roofs that were installed this summer, and the classrooms and hallways of Elizabeth Hall have been repainted, the bus« iness manager said. The approaches to the Stetson Union building and the parking lot have been widened and repaved. Roads and sidewalks have been extensively paved east and south of Emily Hall and in the parking lots behind the Union. In the north entrance to Elizabeth Hall, where there was once an art gallery, there is now a group of well-planned offices' for Admissions Office personnel and for the business manager. The sound of hammering and the smell of paint indicate that new bookcases and partitions are still being installed in this area. New easy-to-read signs identifying buildings have just been erected, and a large campus directory listing has been put up in front of the Gillespie Museum where visitors frequently park. Six new tennis courts for men's intra-murals are being constructed along Garfield Ave. These replace the courts eliminated by construction for the new library. The six courts for the use of women which are adjacent to Cummings Gymnasium have been re-surfaced. Stetson's infirmary in Chaudoin Hall has been redecorated. Rooms have new rugs, drapes, and curtains and have been freshly painted. Facilities can handle 14 coed bed patients and 10 men. •One much needed improvement about to begin that will not be obvious to visitors, Dr. Johns said, is the installation of individual heating plants for Chaudoin, Stetson, and Conrad Halls. These plants will make it easy for residents of each building to regulate their own temperature, whereas previously the buildings were' tied in to the overloaded central heating system. Stetson's building and maintenance program reflects tlie. spirit of progress evident in all areas of the University's life, Johns indicated. NOTICE All posters that are to be placed in,thie Student Union Building must have the approval of the Union Building Office before they can be placed in the S.U.B. These posters should not exceed 11 x 15 inches or one-half the size of standard posters paper.
