KKK Rears Its Head
Georgia has its synagogue-bombers.
Tenne.s.soe lias its bchool-blasteis.
And Texas we blush to own has its Ku Klux Klan.
We had though the white-nightshirt-and-pointed-hood crowd long
since dead but a nous sheet published by a man in Waco (where he says
the KKK has its headquarteis) tells us that the "Aryan Knights" ride
again
The Klansmen arc using the following peculiar logic: Communists
:ur w ked. The KKK is against Communism. Therefore Ku Klan Klan
i- iitaous pince vii tue opposes wickedness.
"We aie defii Holy anti-Communist" proclaim the KKK sheets.

The small nations of Eiope and othei
puts of the woild would not have suivivcd
if we had not .supplied them with mlliUty
and economic aid If the Fiee Woild secuilly
is to be maintained mllltaiy aid must be con-

Because of my belief I want our program
to be mote effective

piojects must be fashioned moic carefully

of the leclpienl nations
Piojects invented by Americans some-
times do not fit conditions in foielgn coun-

Ill-conceived scores of excellent ones have
been l ejected
A foielgn aid piogiam depends on the
people Much can be done by the various
fluencies that send peisonnel overseas Se-

should be moio caicfully trained
Toielgn Aid is in our national lnteiest

meet the cost in his own sclf-intcicst The
foreign aid piogram has b( en successful
but to mal.e it even more successful and less
costly we shall have to continue to starch
fot ways to improve it.
To conclude I like to think of this
sciitjtuio when I think of foreign aid:
"Theicfoie if thine enemy hunger feed him
if he thirst give him chink loi In so doing
thou salt heap coals of fire on his head "

"Watch that first step Fribble. It's a lulu!'
THE ICONOCLAST
By DON BOYD
Many years ago Doiothy
Sajers commented that theie
Is only one way to make lve
but a thousand ways t' com-
mit muider A book has
lcccntly been published vhUn
asscits that there is only
one way to be a good piofcs-
soi but there arc at least
seven ways t be a veiy bad
one.
Having already decided how
our cwn pioles'-ors will leact
(one will say "Hmm wonder
who THAT one is supposed to
be0 ' one will with his wlf
chuckle over It; and one
vwi't lead the column at
all) we venture to shaic
these ways of being a BAD
piofessor with McMutiy stu-
dents: 1. Uhc plain stupid piofes-
soi the one v ho is merely
Ignorant or t.o stupid to
Know when he is boring
people or when he Is ontagd-
nlz'ng thwi or whi.i the
aie laughing at him or wh i
nc ii taikln over thoii heads
.1 beneath Uvmi lntell'gcnce
Ho Is a lule-followei becaust
lule-foliowlng simplifies his
existence
2 The smug piofessoi the
one who is convinced that
nobody knows as much about
anjtlilnj as ho knov- about
his field He li cagei to help
his students so lo i; as they
agree with him and give him
the admiration which he feels
is his due.
3 The airogant one the
profcssoi who always makes
his rank known to thee be-
low him He has foi gotten
what Tmeison knew. The
scciet of education Ilea in
respecting the pupil
I The prcfessoi who doesn't
like people this one is a
whiz on his subject but he
ought to be locked u.i with it
for he has no teal human
waimth friendliness oi ui-
dcrstanding of ether people's
points of view.
5 The "buddy-boy" pio-
fessot usually joung this
one tiles lo "pal aiound" wlUi
his students t bo theli com-
pai len and theli equal. He
sacrifices theli lespect for
theli filendshlp.
C The ' community model"
snooth cultuied compla-
cent he scoffs gently at con-
vention while o -opeiating
pcilccMy with cveiy conven-
tion that ically maters on
campus He is a" excellent
man foi lulling and sippies-
sine self-analysis and telf-
cilticism 7 The "assembly-lne" pio-
fessoi to whom students aro
like sj manv cars en a Det-
lolt assemblv line Ho loses
sisJit ot human values In a
hizc of statistics and nornal

And to add a few of our own:
B The hai tnc one who
says 'Yfsslrree Im all for
j ou -ud'U'ts You go to it.
and 1 11 back you all the v ay"
but win ii the chips ai'H down
lmn.u'ts to figuu out a de-
finition of 'backing' which
has no meaning

THING s peifctt To be lojal
is to think that nobody else
hrs am thing writh having"
McMuuy has hs fan shaie
of these and McMtury has
some piofessors to whom the
opposite virtues may Lc as-
ciibed If these lines have
seemed harsh then let us as-
