Cadets Briefed
On Air Attacks
Intercontinental ballistic missiles were call-
ed the major threat to U. S. security Wed-
nesday when Col. William D Frymire spoke
to 250 cadets of the North Texas Air Force
KOTC unit.
Col Frymire, a graduate of North Texas,
is the chief of air surveillance and control
division and deputy chief of staff for Air
Defense Command Headquarter* in Colorado
Springs Air Defense Command is a division
of NORAD (North American Air Defense I
Frymire listed long range bombers, ballis-
tic missiles and orbited missiles as the major
things NORAD must guard against
Of these three, he said the chief concern
now is with the ballistic missile
The colonel said the Air Defense Command
has found that the best defense against
these missiles is to engage the enemy as
far away from the target area as possible.
He said that as the years go by, the danger
of attack from space will become greater
but already the Department of Defense is
making plans to safeguard the country from
such ari attack,
Frymire said the North Texi.s campus has
<\ -iged much since he was a student here,
but he said that the Air Force has changed
much more. "The automated techniques em-
ployed by the modern Air Force," Frymire,
said "require young men skilled in the use
of the equipment used today to defend our
country "
The purpose of the colonel's visit here was
to inform cadets of just what will lie ex-
pected of them and what sort of work they
will lie doing in air defense

NT Delegates
Return From
TISA Meeting
Three USNT members returned Monday
from the Texas Intercollegiate Student As.
■ 'nation's conference at Baylor
The delegates were Senior Senator Hick
Koloter, Junior Senator Ken Wallace and
presidential adviser George Helton.
The weekend convention's topics ranged
from "Campus Morality" to "Religion and the
Student."
Wallace reported to USNT members Tues-
day night that one of the resolution* approv-
id proposed that "TISA support a statement
cencerning the academic freedom of stu-
dents."
Helton reported that the group also met
"for general assembly and discussed the new
moral man on campus today." He also said
that another panel debated whether the
church should give students a framework on
what they learn on campus.
One of the panelists was Huirh Hefner,
editor ami publisher of Playboy magazine
TISA. founded in 1949, holds several con-
ferences in Waco each year. Delegates par-
ticipate in group discussions led by not«d
panelists deliberating topics of interest.

mation concerning queen qualifications can
tie obtained at tile CSNT office
Also at Tuesday's meeting. new set of
senate rules was adopted The rules were re
vised in nearly a full semester's work by a
special committee supervised by Sophomore
Senator Charles Dixon
"A major improvement of the ruies was
the language. The last revised edition was
printed in September 1962 and the language
was inadequate and ambiguous," Dixon said.
Dixon further explained that a new office
of chaplain was added to the rules. The chap-
lain "will lie responsible for the invocation at
the beginning of each senate meeting."
Other improvements concerned the removal
of the Policy Coordination Committee The
committee was organized to "discuss all
matters with which the senate must approach
the college officials."
"Its purpose was too indefinite," Dixon
said. "It is not necessary ior any committee,
except in research, to approach the college
office."
During the meeting. Junior Senator Dairy I
Saichek made several proposals,
"The parking problem on this campus is
growing worse by the day and everyone talks
about it like the weather hut no one seems
to be doing anything about it," Saichek said.
He proposed that USNT consider using Fouts
Field as a parking area with continous bus
service to the main campus.
Another Saichek proposal concerned open-
ing the Music Building on Sundays.
"There are over 800 NTSU students using
the building and 55 per cent are out-of-state
music majors with no place to go on week-
ends," he said. "They need a place to study
and practice and it is indeed a shame and a
waste of valuable apace and facilities for the
Music Building to lie dormant on weekends "
Saichek also proposed that all senate offi-
cers wear nameplates "«o the student body
will take notice of their student govern-
ment representatives "
In other matters discussed at the meet-
ing special committee chairman Loyd l.ott
reported that his committee would like to
take a poll regarding a Union Building fee
to provide services for the students.
"The poll could also ask the students if
they would like the UB to lie open on Sun
days We will send the poll by mail to stu-
dents at random because mailing is a more
scientific method of obtaining information,"
l.ott said.
Also, Senior Senator Kay Grant reported
that she recently talked to the art depart
ment about beautifying the UB with paint-
inifs.
"They said that they would be glad for
USNT members to put pictures up in the
UB," Miss Grant said
At the end of the meeting, Mi*s Prindle
announced that the USNT would not meet
next week because of sorority bid accep
tance.
"It is a tradition of the senate not to meet
on this day," she said.
Campus Chorale
Formed by Split
The Chapel Choir has been split into two
choral groups.
One new group, directed by Tom Shaw,
will be called the Campus Chorale. The other
group will retain the name Chapel Choir
and will be directed by Edward Baird.
"The Chapel Choir juat got so large that
they had to do something. The only thing
we could do was turn people away, and we
wouldn't want to do that," Shaw commented.
The Campus Chorale, a mixed chorus, has
53 members. Shaw mM Men la atUI room
for any men who are not music majors and
are interested in singing. Students should
contact him in room 311 in the Music Build
ing.
The new choir plans to do at least one
concert, including a joint concert with the
Women's Chorus in the spring.

This Week
New Resume System
Begun for Grads
Graduate* who have gone through
the frustrating business of circulating
resumes to employers can appreciate
the new system known as Graduate
Resume Accumulation and Distribution
(GRAD).
Under the GRAD program an alum-
nus looking for a job gets in toueh
with the Business Employment Ser-
vice's director, John M. Brooks. If
Brooks and his staff feel that the
GRAD program will be of value, the
candidate is given an instruction sheet
and a four-page resume form. The
alumnus sends the resume to the Col-
lege Placement Council in Bethlehem,
Pa., with a $10 service fee.
The council uses computers to find
jobs. The original resume is microfilmed
and can be retrieved almost immediate-
ly upon request of an employer.
Employers using a teletype unit to
query the GRAD system have almost
immediate access to the electronic file.
Brooks said almost every experienced
graduate can put his qualifications be
fore employers from coast to coast
with computer speed and at nominal
cost.
Cadets Help County
In Heart Fund Drive
Air Force ROTC cadets will play an
important role in the Denton County
Heart Fund Drive this year.
Starting Monday, meml>ers of the
corp* will begin making the rounds of
Denton business establishments to col-
lect funds for the campaign.
The NTSU unit was picked largely
because of its success with the Barrel
of Joy campaign sponsored by the Den-
ton Welfare Agency last Christmas.
The ROTC will be important to the
success of the Heart Fund drive because
most of the money collected each year
is from the businesses, said Joe Nichols,
who is in charge of the county drive.
Nichols said. "We are very fortunate
to have the services of the North Texas
AFROTC. We like to uae them because
they make a very good impression on
the people being solicited."
Cadet Maj. Edward M Hiekly will be
in charge of the collections, which will
continue through the week.
Students Attend
Radio-TV Workshop
Radio-TV students from NTSU will
go to the Radio-TV Workshop-Clinic
at the University of Oklahoma March
3-6. Schools from a five-state area are
expected.
The annual event is co-sponsored by
the broadcasting department of the
University of Oklahoma, the Oklahoma
Broadcasters Association and American
Women in Radio-Television.
Students will participate in clinics
in commercial writing, radio announc-
ing, television announcing and televi-
sion film. They will receive evaluations
from professionals in the four categor-
ies.
Workshops in different areas of
broadcasting will be conducted by pan
els of professionals.
Dr. Ted Colson of the speech and
drama faculty, sponsor of the Radio-
TV Club, said, 'The real value of the
trip is the contact with professional
broadcasters and their criticisms."

War, Peace
Basic Issues,
Says Educator
By BENE BEAN
Introduced as the "renaissance man" of
today. Dr Harold Taylor kept an NTSU
audience captive Tuesday with a light but
serious talk on "the major issue of today:
war and peace."
Dr. Taylor, former president of Sarah Law-
rence College, spoke on "Moral Conflicts in
American Life."
The lecture, third in the University Lec-
ture Series, had been scheduled at 4 p.m.
Monday. Because of mechanical difficulties.
Dr. Taylor's plane arrived in Dallas too late
for the lecture. The talk was rescheduled for
Tuesday morning and moved from the Bus-
iness Administration Lecture Hall to the
Main Auditorium.
In the confusion, many who wished to hear
Dr. Taylor missed the lecture.
The former educator began by stating that
the basic issue of today is war and peace.
He explained that, "on one hand, in playing
our part in world affairs, America is trying
to use its economic, social, political and mili-
tary forces to establish a democratic world
order."
On the other hand the country engages in
a military conflict with an Asian enemy.
"Thus," he said, "those who are concerned
about the military conflict in Southeast Asia
are concerned that the moral values in build-
ing a peaceful world do not get submerged
in the political values in trying to aid the
political life of Southeast Asia.
"The world is not held together by com-
mon humanity but by mutual threats," Dr.
Taylor commented.
Illustrating this, he said the Americans
and the Russians each have enough power
to kill each other 15 times over. He reminded
the audience that once is enough.
"One of the difficulties in thinking about
world affairs is that the larger the number
of dead people one talks about, the less
harmful that death seems," he said. "Thus,
if one thinks of just one person in Viet Nam,
no moral principle amounts to anything un-
less it deals with the actual effects on the
individual. War is the ultimate immorality."
He said violence in the I'nited States has
not been ended yet, referring to racial bomb-
ings and the Watts riots.
"The least violent and most orderly com-
munities of today are the white protestant
suburbs. We have divided into different or-
ders and communities which are not only
-'■t; I crated b\ color but by inconu he said.
To illustrate, hi compared the rich com-
niunities and the <lums He went beyond that
to -ay that the world society, "which can be
thought of as one huge city," contain* a
seres of affluent societies plus slums He
explained that in Africa and Asia there are
entire countries that are slums.
Finally, the slums have become of national
concern This concern whs a result of hard
work on the part of America's youth, he
says.
"Whereas young American* are concerned
about their own country, they are alao con-
cerned about others." the speaker noted "The
Peace Corps is a prime example of how our
youth are aiding other countries, and at the
same time forming a new relationship be-
tveen America and the world"
