"We ask," he said, : "how the values of Christian ethical concern can be brought to. .bear on .the world situation."

Lefever spoke on "The Congo — a Case-Study' in American Responsibility," and stated, "The Congo crisis was rooted in two failures of: Western imperial power —' the failure of the metropolitan nations to prepare their colonies; adequately for eventual' statehood and the failure to'develop. a philosophy and strategy for relating their power and wealth to the emerging states in the inevitable post-colonial era." "Power and Purpose in World Politics" was the subject, of Dr. Lefever's second talk. "The American purpose is to help create a world order," he said.

This synthesis, according to Dr. Brewer, has been endowed with Divinity by the Protestant churches in'the South, much as medieval, feudalism was sanctified by the Catholic church. '•'The close .tie must.be broken," he said. "The change is-coming. We have no choice but to face it." The discussions in the sociology and religion classes he visited centered around the racial issue, and its implications.

A dim form appears, then gradually a face: and we see the Christ first through the eyes of a blind child." In this manner Cecil B. De- Mille describes the first appearance of Christ on the screen in his all-time classic "The King of Kings." The film will be shown tomorrow night, Easter Eve, 8 p.m., as the sixth presentation of this semester's Film Classics Series. The movie is sponsored by the Baptist Student Union as an Easter epilogue to this year's Religious Focus Week. "The King of Kings," which has been presented almost daily since its premiere in 1927, has been seen by more than 800 million people. It has probably told the story of Jesus of Nazareth to more people than any other single work, except the Bible itself. It has been seen throughout the world from Hollywood to the jungles of Africa, and even in prisoner-of- war camps during the Korean conflict. In Mexico, when the churches; were closed by gov- eminent edict, people went to see "The. King of Kings" and knelt in the theatre to offer the prayers they could not say in church. ..'■■•■•-.- Though originally silent, a musical soundtrack was later added to the film.

(LP.) —' The college student's quest for the good life stems more from a quiet rebellion against society's values than it does from satisfaction' with the status quo, a study of more than 100 freshmen at San Francisco State College suggests. . Findings of the study are summarized in a Psychological Reports' monograph by Robert E. Mogar, a member of the Division ' of Psychology. His research , was part of a student development study, financed by the U.S. Office of Education. "That' rebellion," he declares, "should take the form of passive disengagement (from -society) rather than positive protest- indicates that traditional values are not oppresive so much as irrelevant to many students." Mogar believes students may turn to what others have called ' 'an ideology of privacy''' to replace the "lapsed ideologies of public action."' ',. ' ...,.., In common with many researchers at other colleges, Mogar found the freshmen - here tend to "play it cool" and avoid personal entanglement with social concerns. Given a choice of 12 items, nearly two- thirds of the:men (62 per cent) rated economic security; careers, and family life as their three most important. concerns , after college. Almost all the students who felt this way were majoring in engineering, the physical sciences and business administration. Almost without, exception, they placed family above career and career above the, welfare of other people. Few discussed their career in terms of intrinsic interest, social usefuleness, or self-fulfillment. As one freshman put it: "If you are not making a substantial income from your future career—at least $8,000 per year—you cannot have leisure and family closeness." Another said: "Helping others has never been of much importance to me. I feel if everyone does his best to help himself, he will be a lot better off.. A person has a full-time job helping his family, let alone helping others whom he probably doesn't even know." A third summarized this group's attitude toward politics in saying: "I do not pay much attention to politics. There are enough local problems to concern one with, without worrying about national and international problems. I do not believe most politicians, for it is a fact that most of them are liars anyway." More than half the freshman women (53 per-cent) ranked family concerns as first in im portance, followed by a combination of economic security, developing a personal identity, or religious beliefs. ' "In most respects, this group is the mirror image of its male counterpart," Mogar commented: "Idealism or genuine career interests were conspicuously absent.
