munication and extra-plana-
tary migration.”
“Migration is. the basic
American tradition, it makes
them smarter,” said Leary, “For
the first time there is no new
place for an individual to
move.”
Leary believes the world’s
most intellectual people have
come to the U.S. where there is
“room to experiment.”
“It’s their genetic destiny,”
said Leary, “We should tune
into science and technology in
the next wave.”
“I never supported drugs,”
quipped Leary nonchalantly.
Leary enjoys teasing .the au-
dience as well as the reporters.
“Never believe anything I say,”
Leary said. “I don’t want to be
credible, I want to be incredi-
ble.”
Leary is optimistic about the
future and has no regrets about
the past.
“During the 60’s the Ameri-
can culture was revised,
reformed and improved,” said
Leary, “The dissidents and long
hairs won and hold positions of
power in our 70’s society.”
“I am proud to be an Ameri-
can,” said Leary, “A president
has made it legal to smile
again.”

Students involved in these
programs are “making a tre-
mendous contribution to the
school,” added Dr. Felder.
“In comparison to other
intercollegiate activities on
campus, the athletic depart-
ment does not spend much
more,” said Dr. Felder.
A 10 per cent increase over
the previous, year’s budget is
planned to offset rising costs
and inflation. Dr. Felder added

At the recent ‘Rap with the
prez’ Dr. Marvin R. Felder,
while answering questions per-
taining to the school budget,'
noted that the budget for inter-
collegiate athletics, fiscal year
1976, was $75,818.
Dr. Felder added that, “We
plan to spend more next year.”
Approximately $44,000 of
the budget was spent on
scholarships, $15,000 of the
budget was spent on supplies
and equipment, and $12,000 of
the budget was spent on travel.

should help, spiraling “inflation
makes it somewhat impossible”
to maintain a balance.
credit can be. Money manage-
ment is very important.”
Not everybody can get credit,
but if a person has a fairly good
job most department stores and
other such places that have
credit are willing to give it, ad-
ded Whittington.
People need to obtain as
much credit as they can even if
it means purchasing items of
small value, he said.
In order to obtain large
amounts of credit, a person has
to have some kind of collateral,
either material things or a good
credit rating.
Whittington said, “Soon all
things will be bought on credit.”

Student Credit Is Valuable
By Kim Hawkins
Harold Whittington, TJC
government instructor and
Temple Federal Credit Union
president, suggests “all college-
aged people should establish
credit as soon as possible.”
The Temple Federal Credit
Union was chartered by the
federal government in January
1949. In September 1976, the fi-
nancial and statistical report
showed total assets well in ex-
cess of $5.5 million and about
4,500 members.
Because of the increase in
assets and members, a new
credit union building will be
built in the near future.
Whittington was recently re-
elected as president of the cred-
it union and is now serving his
fourth term in office.

The 10th volume of Collage,
the literary publication of the
Media Center, will be available
Thursday and may be
purchased at the bookstore, ac-

thorne, faculty editor for the
publication. Collage is a publi-
cation of students’ creative
work including poems, prose,
one-act plays, drawings and
black-and-white photographs.
The publication is a result of
a joint effort by the editorial
staff consisting of faculty and
students, the art department,
and the Media Center’s printing
department.
View His Work
The publication gives artists
or writers a chance to view their
work as the audience will see it.
This year’s Collage features
seven student artists. The ar-
tists are Barbie Berger, Cathy
Brown, Bruce Flanigan, Andy
Menchu, Patti Pausewang,
Beverly Surghnor and Sharon
Urban.
Jerry Smith is in charge of
printing and Freddy Samuelson
'is assistant printer.

“We will be aided in this
year’s printing by a new
machine which will help assem-
ble pages . . last year we as-
sembled pages by hand,” said
Smith. “A race with time,
where our deadline is con-
cerned, is the only problem we
may have,” he added.

drama department next Thurs-

Leary’s Philosophy Is Space
Migration, Life Extention
By Aaron Williams
Staff Writer
AUSTIN — “I don’t deal in
dope now, I deal in hope.”
No, not a statement from one
of Rev. Lester Roloff s reformed
juveniles but one from Timothy
Leary, so-called “chief cor-
rupter of youth” in the 60’s and
father of LSD cultists.
As Roloffs ideas are more
spiritual, Leary has ideas on
more terrestial places. From the
“in the groove, up tight, and out
of sight” attitude, Leary has
mellowed to a new philosophy of
“space migration, intelligence
increase, and life extension.”
Leary now labels himself as
the “genetic mystic,” a man
who hopes to lead those who will
follow through a “migration to
outer space.”
The Leary frontiers are no
longer cerebral but physical.
His visions are now those of
space colonies, self-supporting
and complete with all the lux-
uries of earth but without the
pollution, and the social and
governmental conflicts.
“It has always been more in-'
telligent to migrate than to stay
and fight over what remains,”
said Leary.
Leary’s Irish Pollyannaism is
quick to rebuff those who critic-
ize Leary’s new outlook. He ex-
plains they are resisting an
evolutionary wave, “all this
doom boom, think small, limits
growth stuff.”
Though Leary’s forum has
changed, he still portrays the
epitome of American ec-
centrism. His terms have gone
from “tune in, turn on, and drop
out” to 21st century jargon of
“telepathy, interspecies com-
