assessed on the idea that every man hasthe responsibility and privilege of pay­ing a form of tax to the government.It was levied a number of years be­fore it became a requirement for vot­ing. And since that time there has beenmuch discussion concerning this re­quirement.

The main argument against such atax is that people should not have topay for the right to vote!

The main argument for such a levyis that if people are not willing to payfor the right, they would not vote any­way, or at least be an uninformedvoter. This~type of tax weeds out un­desirable voters.

But the point remains-if Texasdoes not have a poll tax, it will haveto find another way to extract close tofour million tax dollars a year fromthe pockets of Texans.

The United States Congress hasnever levied a national poll tax, butseveral states of the union have. Thesestates include Alabama, Indiana,Maine, Nebraska, New Hampshire,Texas, Vermont, Voirginia, and WestVirginia, all of which use the tax toraise money. Arkansas and Mississippiused local poll taxes with the moneygoing to the local government insteadof the state.

But the way the poll tax applies tothe people of Texas and Alabama isunique compared to other states of theunion. Our state along with Alabamalevies its poll tax as a requirementfor voting.

Texas citizens from 21 to 59 yearsmust pay their poll tax if they desireto vote. Usually the tax is quite reason­able, a state charging a tax of $1.50per person, of which 2/3 goes to theavailable school fund and 113 to thegeneral fund of the state. In additionto this sum counties may assess anadditional 25 cents making a total of$1.75. After the age of 60, paymentis no longer required.

By DICK PETERSONIn the State of Texas when a person

reaches the age of 21 and meets cer­tain specifications, he earns the rightto vote.

This svstem of voting and choosingour leaders is one of the most out­standing characteristics. of democraticAmerica. But one does not have thefree right to vote in Texas. Before aperson can cast his ballot, he must pavwhat is known as a poll tax andregister for voting.

The term poll tax is derived fromthe English word "poll" which meanshead. This tax is often referred to a~

a head tax since an equal tax is leviedon everyone of the community regard­less of the financial status of the per­son.

England levied its last head tax in1698-three hundred years after sucha levy brought abOl.!t Wat Tyler's Re­bellion. an uprising of the poor peo­ple of England against the levying ofsuch a tax.

Not all poll taxes have had the sameeffect. The tax is not levied today withthe same meaning of the past.

Poll Tax Required For Texas VotersSupplies Four Million Tax Dollars

March 24, 1961THE McCALLUM SHIELD,

When people think of records, they usually think of Babe Ruth's60 homeruns in a single season, Floyd Patterson's regaining theheavyweight crown, or Lou Gerig's 2,130 games played consecutivelyin the major leagues.

The people of Texas recently set a different type of record. Seventycandidates qualified for the April 4 special election to fill the vacancycreated by Vice-President Lyndon B. Johnson, more than doubling theprevious record for candidates in a political race in Texas.

Since only Senator William B. Blakely <presently interim senator),State Senator Henry B. Gonzalez, former State Representative MauryMaverick Jr., John G. Tower, Attorney General Will Wilson, andCongressman Jim Wright are actively campaigning with the goal ofmaking the runoff, what are the other 64 candidates trying to accomp­lish?

The answer is really very simple By officially qualifying and payingthe mandatory 50 dollar filing fee, these 64 unknowns will receivecheap statewide publicity. In addition to having their names flashedbefore the public through every kind of news media, each name willappear on upward of two million ballots.

Moreover, not only do so many candidates complicate the actualact of voting, but they also complicate the issues. Even if a persononly seriously considers the "earnest six", he is easily confused as towho stands exactly for what. Although appearing to advocate thesame things, sometimes two candidates will claim to be politicalopposites.

If the list of candidates were cut down to only two or three activecampaigners, the different stands would really be different. With onlya few political views to choose from, the various issues would appearmore clearly in the voter's mind, and he would be able to make a moreintelligent decision as to which candidate he thinks is the right manfor the job.

Senator Dorsey B. Hardeman appears to be in accordance with thisphilosophy, for he has introduced a bill into the Texas Senate fixinga filing fee of $1,000 for candidates for state office. This bill wasfavorably reported out of committee March 15.

Anyone can say':ihe has principles in which he sincerely believes, butonly in adversity are principles put to a real test. Thus, we must notbe afraid to test our principles.

By the time a person enters high school, he has left behind himthe days when he could shun responsibility and simply watch theworld go by. He has, instead, reached the time when he must takestock of his principles and be willing to uphold them in public, aswell as in his own mind.

Group solidarity is a fine thing to a point. However, it is no excusefor allowing someone else to do one's thinking for him. He now isold enough to reason as an individual.

In recent months there have been several local issues which haveconcerned a number of McCallum students-separation of church andstate in the public high schools, and the integration of theaters onthe DT Drag.

Without reference to the pro's and con's of these issues, it is clearthat they involve fundamental questions that should concern anyonewho practices good citizenship. This includes both the holding andthe advocating of informed opinions.

These opinions should not be based on the next person's principles,or lack of them, but, rather, each individual should derive his opinionsfrom his own tested principles.

The students at McCallum who have opposed religious assembliesand segregation, (and there are many students who oppose the formerand who strongly favor the latter and vice versa) are not rebels withouta cause. They are citizens that have discovered there is more to lifethan being a "nice, agreeable" person. They are citizens who areunwilling to substitute a popularity contest for democracy. They arecitizens who have the courage of their convictions and the energy towork for them.

Education at McCallum should provide a basis and an incentive toeach student to make a contribution to his community, by becomingan informed, active citizen. Our democracy cannot afford lazy citizenswho lack the courage of their convictions.

TEe Offers PermanentOpportunities

In this ever-changing world there is an increasing need for peoplesof one environment, of one occupation, of one religion to meet withpeoples of similar, yet distinctively different environments tobring about an effective exchange of beliefs, ideals, and concepts.

This need extends far past the adult-dominated world.McCallum has a definite need to share its students and their ideas

with schools of different locales.If McCallum is content to remain in its shell, having no knowledge

of what other schools are achieving, of what textbooks and periodicalsthey are studying, then instead of blazing forth like a great fire thatalerts the whole counryside, McCallum will smolder like a blazecovered with a blanket that occasionally emits a feeble wisp of smoke.

An exchange program would allow McCallum students to see firsthand how other schools function, how other communities operate.

It would broaden a student's cultural background while strengthen­ing his pride in his own community. It would teach students valuablelessons in travel, tolerence, and brotherhood.

Many schools throughout the country are now actively engaged ina Student Exchange program. About 34 states and two foreigncountries, Mexico and Canada, now exchange students with each other.

A list of schools participating or willing to participate in such anexchange program is available from the National Association ofStudent Councils, under whose direction the program operates.

In order to arrange such a program for McCallum i.n 1963, it isnecessary to begin now to make all arrangements for the establishmentof workable machinery.

To reach this goal we suggest that the Student Council form as astanding committee, an Exchange Committee.

It would be necessary for this committee to funcion under thedirection of a Student Council officer, or some other person who wouldbe able to serve in that capacity for the entire year, thus providingthe necessary continuity for the program.

The membership of this committee could be taken in part from theStudent Council, class officers, and representative of various schoolorganizations, as well as from the student body as a whole.

The function of the Exchange Committee at the out·set would beto establish the requirements for McCallum exchange students, and themethod for selection of these studens.

Futher, the committee would be responsible for contacting schoolsnow participating in the project for an evaluation of their programs,and for drawing up a proposed program for McCallum to be presentedto the Student Council for final approval. '

.To extend the program into the community we further suggest thata committee of townspeople be formed, possibly through the P-TA,to help the Exchange Committee in finding summer employment forselected paricipants in the program, and to help in planning for thevisit of students from the Exchange School chosen.

This is a proposal that we feel is worthwhile. It is not a detailedplan nor a blueprint. If you are interested in such a program, makeyour wishes known to your elected Student Council representative.

It is a proposal that deserves to be discussed.

Jo Faith now practices several timesa week to keep in shape, and she usu­ally appears before an audience twoor three times a year.

She has benefitted from her balletand modern dance because it has help­ed her to have rhythm and to learnnew dance steps more easily.

Since Jo Faith started Mexican folkdancing, she has come in closer con·tact with the ordinary people of Mex­ico and has learned many of their cus­toms,

Another dancer is Beverly Shafer.She has taken ballet and tap for tenyears and modern jazz for one yearfrom Annette Duval. For two yearsBeverly has taken square dancing fromMrs. Tom Adams.

Beverly attends classes twice a week,and for three hours each Sunday shetakes square dancing.

She has all her costumes made forher recitals. One time she had a cos­tume covered with glitter, and by thetime Beverly got through dancing, she,too, was glittered from head to toe!

From her dancing Beverly has ac­quired grace and has learned to appearbefore an audience without gettingnervous. Beverly says she is not plan­ning to dance professionally; shedances merely for enjoyment.

Pat Swaner is a senior ,this yearwho has turned professional. She hastaken ballet and tap for ten years.

Some of the types of ballet she hastaken consist of free style, soft shoe,toe shoe, and the newest kind of bal­let, Americl\na, which she took uplast year. Toe shoes are not worn withthe Americana style and this is similarto the free ~ style. ,Pat has also takenacrobatics and modern jazz.

Pat has been teaching dancing forthe past two years and is now themanager of the Reese School of Danc­ing in Windsor Village No.3. Sheenjoyed taking tap and modern jazzmost of all, but now enjoys teachingballet the most. ~

She teaches her students 'rapidly butrequires no practice. Pat remarked,"Instead of requiring outside practice,I like to pride myself in being a goodteacher so that my students will needno outside practice,"

If her students want to practice, sherecommends that they do so at leastan hour a day. '

Pat creates all the costumes for herstudents. There are places to send offfor the costumes but in order to getthe right fit and what she wants, shedesigns them and has them made.

Music has always thrilled Pat, butthe thing which most influenced herto begin dancing was a show that shesaw, starring Vera Ellen and DonaldO·Connor. She thought that they wereso graceful that she told her mothershe wanted to take dancing.

At seven she began lessons withBubbles Welch, and from that day sherealized that she wanted to be a danceteacher.

Naturally, recitals have been a partof her dancing career, and she has hadsome unusual experiences. A few timesher ballet shoes have come untied andhave caused her to trip. And one timewhen she was very young she fellasleep on stage!

Pat has benefitted from her dancingin that she has decided on a lifetimecareer. She has also acquired poise andbalance. About her career she remark­ed, "Dancing is the love of my life,and if anyone took it away from me,I guess I would die."

eight years she has taken ballet fromMrs. Sylvia Schlumpf. To become adancer Gail says one must practice atleast an hour a day.

She has had many stran~e experi­ences durin!; recitals. One of these oc­curred while she was dancing on anopen-air stage. Gail was doing an in­tricate step when suddenly a swarm ofJune bu~s appeared. Much to her dis­may, Gail had to continue dancing ac­companied by a bonnet of June bugs!

Gail reports that she has benefittedfrom dancin'g because she has acquiredcoordination, strength, and an apprecia.tion for classical music. It also helpsto control her weight and to havepoise when she dances or speaks be­fore an audience.

Jo Faith Hutton, also a McCallumdancer, has taken two years of balletand modern dance from Barbara Payne,but her specialty is Mexican folk dane·ing. When she was twelve years old,she visited Mexico with her family.Jo Faith saw some native folk dancingand wanted to learn, so when shefound that classes were offered, sheimmediately took up this type ofdance.

The rhythm came easy for her, soshe learned how to play the castanets.Since that time she returned to Mexicoevery summer and often enjoys dane·ing at some' of the Mexican fiestas.

Last year Jo Faith taught Mexicanfolk dancin~ to fifth and sixth gradestudents at Ridgetop Elementary.

Her first solo recital was last year.She and her teacher practiced threehours a day prior to the recital, sothat she had the dance memorized per­fectly. The press had publicized herrecital, and a professional dancer wascoming to see her.

While Jo Faith was dancing, sherealized that one step had slipped hermind, so she had to do one step overand over until she remembered thenext one.

At one recital Jo Faith and severalother girls were going to do a Spanishdance. On their heads were longdangling tassels. They were practicingbehind stage and had formed a circlewhen all of a sudden the girls realizedthat their tassels had gotten tangledin all the rush! Luckily they were able

By MARILYN MAYS"Dancing is the loftiest, the most

moving, the most beautiful of the arts,because it is no mere translation orabstraction from life; it is life itself,"

This is how Havelock Ellis feltabout dancing, and we have foundmany around McCallum who hold thesame opinion.

Ever since she can remember, Jean­nie Mayo has taken dancing lessons.This is her twelfth year of tap, toe,and modern jazz. Jeannie has alsotaken square dancing for three years.

Annette Duval has taught her ballet,tap, and modern jazz, and designs allof Jeanne's costumes, while Mrs. TomAdams teaches her square dancing atthe Austin Athletic Club.

Jeannie thinks it is best to practicea little every day, so she practicestoe and tap from ten to fifteen minutesa day.

Jeannie has performed on televisionseveral times. She has danced on theCactus Pryor show, and she and Ken­neth Bozart won a duet tap dance onthe Uncle Jay show. She said thatPrincess, Uncle Jay's dog, never couldget used to their taps, and when theywould try to pet him, Princess wouldstick out her nose and jump back inhorror.

Jeannie began her dancing careerout of necessity. When she was abouttwo she had an attack of polio. To/tet the feeling back in her legs, thedoctor told her she would have totake physical therapy or dancing les­sons.

Jeannie chose dancing because itsounded like more fun, and she hasbeen doing it ever since.

Jeannie says that ballet and tap havehelped to control her weight, to begraceful, and to have rhythm. Throughballet, tap, and modern jazz she haslearned to appreciate classical music,while square dancing has helped her toappreciate folk songs.

One of the main accomplishmentsJeannie has achieved through dancingis learning to run. Before Jeannie start­,ed dancing. she wasn't able to run.But now, after many years of practice,she has finally mastered it.

Although dancing has been a majorpart of her life, Jeannie does not planto dance professionally. She comments,"I just want it to look back on and

Mr. Curtis Shiflet since taking overthe reigns as athletic director of Mc­Callum and head football coach of Mc·Callum has instituted several newmethods in coaching.

One that was most amusing at firstwas the new rule about grades. It isnow standing among the athletes inbaseball and football that make a let­ter grade of an "F" in a six weeks. Theruling is that the "failee" has to runa mile every day for every failureuntil the grade is brought up to pass­ing.

It might be noticed that I stated therule amusingly at first. The author ofthis column is now running his dailylaps around the field. McCallum mayhave a few unscholarly athletes, butthose that make the "F" won't haveto worry about being in shape, or willthey?
