commercial loan will be for 20 or 25 years." "Let's assume." said Currie. "a construction cost of $8000 a bed for a 200 bed complex, that's $1.6 million. "Just to show you the dif- ference, interest on a three per- cent loan over 30 years would be $833,000, a six percent loan wouldbe $1,822,000, and the interest on a nine percent loan would be$3,041, 000," hesaid. "We can't know the exact termor interest of the loan until we get it," said Currie, "but these figures give some in- dication of theamount of money we're talking about. Iwould think that if our interest rate were as high as nine percent however, we'd try to get the loan for the shortest possible term." "I couldn't have guessed six weeks ago that this was going to happen." saidCornell . "We have discussed this project with HUD." said Currie. "In November they said they'd be sending someone to work withus." The information put out by HUD says that working drawings must be sent with each application. At the time of the cut-off, the college had not chosen an architect. "There were two closing dates for applications for funds from the 1973 budget," said Currie. "January 1and May I. 1973. We were geared toward meeting that May deadline." "I'd like to point out." said Cornell, "that slowness of ac- tion is one of the prices that you pay for allowing somany people to have a voice in what type of housing we will have. I'm not opposed to student input on these matters nor am I blaming anyone, but when you work through a large committee as was done in this case, you get burned once in a while. " Asked what the effects of the fund crisis would be, Cornell ex- plained that, "It could force us to cut costs on the housing, to delay construction, orboth." Cornell added that student roomrents areexpected to bear the cost of housing. "I also realize that there is a ceiling of costs which students can af- ford." added Cornel I . "This problem will put a fur- ther strain on the same funding apparatus that has to finish paying for the new E. H. Little Library, a new Union and new science facilities," added Cor- nell. ByBOB 1 1< mi II Managing Editor A proposed system of faculty and administration evaluation was presented this week to the faculty by the Committee on Professional Affairs (CPA). which has been working on the plan since early last term. Professor of Religion Max E. Pol ley. chairman of the CPA. stressed the tentative nature of the proposal "We wish the faculty to discuss openly this working document and to revise and improveit," he said. "The basic issue." he noted. "is whether or not we want to give faculty members ad- ministrative responsibility in this area." The committee began work on the plan in response to a request from Vice President for Academic Affairs John M. Bevan concerning faculty promotion, tenure and reap- p<liniment. Bevan. feeling present evaluation procedures were factors as a professor's com- petencein his discipline, ability to communicate, availability to students, and enthusiasm for what he teaches. Other criteria would include professional competence and skills (such as research projec- ts in progress, publications) and community service i par- ticipation in on- and off-campus activities. A faculty member usually would be evaluated once every four years: each year any faculty member eligible for tenure and-or promotion would be evaluated. Nominations lor faculty members to be promoted would be submitted to the committee by departmental chairmen. New and non- tenured professors not on terminal ap- pointments would be evaluated annually in thecase of one-year appointments and at the begin- ning of the second year in the caseof two-year appointments. The committee would obtain information on faculty mem- bers from reports, recom- mendations and interviews of departmental chairmen and in- terviews with faculty colleagues!

"The feedback is that it wasworthwhile," said PremedicalAdvisor James M. Fredericksen. The interviews'purpose, he explained, is toacquaint the student with thequestion and answer situationwhichhe soon will beput intoatthemedicalschools.

We were genuinely surprisedupon reading Dr Bevan sstatements in the Jan 26 issueof THE DAVIDSONIAN.Although Dr Bevan has oftenbeen an elusive figure when it
comes to personal meetingswith students, we had assumedthat this was the result of hispreoccupation with the in-terests of the student body Buthis remarks concerning theFEC's proposedcalendar showa clear disregard of these in-terests
The statement that the newcalendar was devised to "an-swer educational needs,not the needs of summerjob. taken at face value,
seems to be the statement of aborn aristocrat Unfortunately,not all students at this schoolareheirstoE H.Little

All inall. the proposed calen-dar has completely failed toconsider the situations ol Mu-st talents

Committee PussyfootingThe Future Campus Housing Committee has
pussyfooted around in attempting to formulate planslor the construction of future dorms The delay hasprovencostly.
If the plans had been approved a month ago. thecollege couldhave applied for a loan from theDepart-ment of Housing and UrbanDevelopment HUD iat anet interest rate of three percent Unfortunately forDavidson. President Nixon announced several daysago that he had terminatedallsuchHUD funding
Now the college must go to the open market to get aloan where the interest rate will be eight or nine per-cent The difference between the rates will probablycost Davidson several milliondollars
This will inevitably put a heavy strain on thealready overburdened financial situation It willmake the job of the people in finance and develop-ment all themoredifficult
Rather than affixing the blame to any one group, wewouldmaintain that all are at least partially respon-sible The administration is culpable because, withthe sensitive feelers they have in Washington. the>should have warned the committee long ago of thepossibility of such a HUD freeze It seem- that MrCornell did deliver such a warning to President Spen-cer last week,but not to the committee By then it wasloo lateanyway
The students and faculty are also to blame becausethey should have pushed for morerapid action ratherthan inallowing the decision making process to dragon and on Both these groups realized the urgency olthe situation, for withno new housing, coed expansionwill have to be drastically curtailed,but did little tospeed up the recommendationprocess.
This committee is by no means alone in its tar-diness Last years committee on the finances ofcoeducation and this year'snew Union committee aretwo other notable examples wheredelays in reportingout a decision occurred
We would urge all committees to complete theirreports within a reasonable amount of time so thatmore problems like the one caused by the HousingCommittee donot occur
FacultyEvaluation ApprovedAffirming that it is a rare and commendable
organization which is willinghonestly to devote timeandeffort evaluating itself, we laud the Committee onProfessional Affairs for its work in formulating asystematic, comprehensive method of facultyevaluation.
The committee is to be complemented both on itsdiligence it has met 14 times since theacademic yearbegan i and on its flexibility ■ it solicitsdiscussionandsuggestionsleading torevisionand improvement '
The history of faculty evaluation at Davidson is atbest nebulous ; it willbe refreshing to see decisions onmatters so vitally important as appointments, reap-pointments. terminations, tenure, promotions andsalary increases being made on a more formalizedbasis than those which seem to come mysteriously
from the top."
Along these lines, we would hesitate to support aplan which does not include the proposed five-manevaluating committee four faculty members and thevice president tor academic affairs but insteadplaces primary responsibility solely in the hands olthe academic vice president and whatever depart-ment chairmenhe chooses.
Most students would contend that their relationswith the faculty play a major role in their lives atDavidson. If theproposal eventually becomes part ofthe faculty constitution, students will have the op-portunity for a considerable part in determining thenatureof that faculty, through both formalevaluationprocedures and personal interviews with theevaluatingbody.
We hope they do so: we hope they contribute toshaping theplan now in its formative stages: we hopethey show their early interest by attending the up-comingopen meetingon faculty evaluation.

Sinceits initiation in the 1970-71 academic year, the Ex-change Program hasslowly butsteadily gained acceptance atthe member institutions until itis now seen as an established,workable program, offeringnew opportunities for un-dergraduate study without for-cing the student topermanentlydepart from his home in-stitution. The major problemwith the program, and the fac-tor which may doom it in thefuture, is that the greatmajority of the exchangestudents attend three orpossibly four host schools withthe other three schools beingleft outalmost entirely.

of theDavidsoncommunity sawan end to the utility of the Ex-changeProgram, as many hadlooked upon it primarily as ameans of obtaining femalestudents at the college.A quickglance at the booklet outliningthe goals and preceduresof theExchangeProgram should con-vince us of the speciousness ofthis reasoning, as the programis said not to be one offering amale-female exchange to thesingle sex schools involved butone offering increasededucational opportunitiesderived from anincreasednum-ber of courses available forstudy and the possibility of achange of educational en-vironment and experiences onthe undergraduate level. Theseopportunities are offered toDavidson students wishing tostudy in the United States onlythrough the "multi-locationuniversity" created by theEight-College ExchangeProgram, and it is difficult toconceive of any new such op-portunities arising if theprogram is allowed to fallthrough.
For those who arguechauvinistic-ally that the other nees from past Junior Year
programs have complained ofnot feelinga part of the David-son community and it is regret-able that these feelings findtheir roots before the studenthasreturned tocampus.
In addition Iwish to alsochallenge the givingof anofficeto an unopposed candidatewithout approval byamajorityof the votingstudents.
Only one student may haveapplied, however, that does notautomatically mean that thestudent body wishes him to fillthat particular position. Everycandidate should be requiredtogain a majority from thosevoting or the position shouldremainvacant.
On these grounds Irequestthat the elections bere-held af-ter such time as off-campusstudentshave beengivenanop-portunity to voice themselves,having been provided withessential information onallcan-didates.Ifallcan notparticipate,does

Marshall, who alter hisresidency Jit the MedicalCollege ol Virginia, spent theyearol 1971asanArmy surgeonin Vietnam,emphasized the im-portance ol the role of thefamily doctor in an age of in-creased specialization inmedical education and prac-tice. "Before moving into BillDavis' office,Ihad no idea thatthe GP faces the problems thathe does, in terms of bothfacilities and the number ofpatients that he sees." hesaid.
According to Marshall, thefamily doctor practices whatcould best be described as 'Oldstyle medicine', the care of aphysician lor his patients andinterest in them, often withouttheaidof much ot what modernmedical technologyhas tooffer."Usually,simply becuaseof thelocation or because of limitedtime, theGP hasat hisdisposalhis head,his hands and his in-sight and that's it." he pointedout"I think the controversy
going on now inmedical schoolsover generalmedical educationas opposed to the extremelyspecialized one is significant:the type of men who willbecome doctors in the future,the variety of their abilities andnumber of capacities in whichthey will be able to serve willdepend very much on the out-come of this question." Mar-shall said.
"Toolewmen thesedaysknowwhat the career of the smalltown doctor is like and too feware thus able to respect themfor the sacrifices that theymake and which Iam nowcoming to realize." he con-tinued.
"That's whyI'mhere.Ithinkthat anyone who now is vaguelyconsidering medicine shouldexamine this angle of theprofession if he wants to see itfor what it truly is."

LAPoet-Playwright PresentsDramatic Two-Hour Reading

He stands in the center of theenclosed room,peoplescatteredin chairs and clustered at hisfeet. There is no quiet, lyricalintroduction to the black poetand playwright from LosAngeles,all isstill.
Then suddenly he cries thathe is the devil. The poet con-tinues haranguing the spec-tators about his identity andmulti -identities, growing loud-er and more certain with hisclaims until one finds himselfwondering if itreally isSatan.
Sensing this, the convincing,mocking flow stops. The maninforms his people that theyhave just heard the prologue of"Tambourines to Glory" byLangstonHughes.
He is indeed Tommy ScottYoung,who appearedat LingleManor onFebruary6.
Young presented a two-hourpoetry reading on love, drugs,reflections of mankind, politicsand sound. His presentationv as dramatic, centered onbombastic vocal and histrionictalent softened with song,chan-tingandquiet lyrics.
All the work was original,with the exception of "Tam-bourines to Glory", two poemsby K. Curtis Lyle. one poembyLuther Keys and a scene fromOssie Davis' "Purlie Vic-torious."
Youngs love poetry wasmostly soft grass-root, with aminimum of theatrics. Perhapsthe most poignant was "BlackDay", written about a girl heworked withinLos Angeles.
His drugpoems started with"Lonely World." which was acombination song-chant His
originally composed for malechorus, though some tran-scribed works meant for mixedgroupsarealsoused "
The composers whose worksare emphasized by the chorusare representativeof the diver-sitv of the program. Selectionsfrom Schubert and Brahms, aRenaissance group, and folk-oriented pieces are the main-stay of thebill

Davidson CommunityRelations Committee ChairmanTony Abbott, who convened themeeting in the auditorium ofDavidson Elementary School,expressed concern that theCommunity Relations Com-mittee had become over-extended.
"The Davidson CommunityRelations Committee was for-med primarily tosponsorbetterunderstanding, communicationand harmony between the dif-
leroni racial, social, religious.and economic groups in thecommunity." Abbott said
Oncol the major purposesolthe committee was to preparethe town lor integration. Al>-»M)tt added. Now that the workol integration has l>een prettythoroughly accomplished, wehope that this new citizensgroup will takeover much of theresponsibility ol making Davidson a better community." Ab-bott said.

Dawson BoysBackFor Debut InLove

"Were workingour way upthe Davidson music scene."says Robert Dawson of theDawson Boys. Robert. 22. andhis brother Ed. 23. first per-formed at Davidson in theMorrison Room of the oldstudent Union in 1969. Theyhave since performed in Cham-bers and will now give the Mid-Winter concert in LoveAuditorium next Friday at 8p.m.
The Dawson Boys have beenplaying together for 11 years.Robert says, "We decided todedicate ourselves to the musicscene, our music is a seriousthing to us." The music of theDawson Boys isa typeof "coun-try-folk rock"according toEd.
Both brothers, swappingleads and harmonies,sing andplay acoustic guitar. Rob alsocreates music with a 12-string
guitar, mandolin, piano andelectric guitar. Ed com-plements his brother on thefive-string banjo.
However, they have alsometamorphosed the Beatles'"Hard Day's Night" into whatEd calls "bastard bluegrass,"with Ed's banjo accompanyingRobert'sCarolina accent.
Though the Dawson Boys donot have a record yet, they aretalking to several companiesandexpecttoproduceonesoon.
The Boyshave played on theNew York Coffeehouse Circuitas well as in top-name clubs inNew York. "Cash Box" says,"The Dawson Boys are a coolbreeze on a hot summer'snight," and "...they are boundto happen as sure as the windblows."
They will happen here atDavidson during Mid-Winters,so be sure that you and yourbabemake the scenein Love.Itshould bea real..."Hold-Up!"
Some mI the problems men-tioned by the citizenry for thecommittee to explore includedlack d| p.irks and recreationfacilities, preschool education,lack of town beautification andsanitation, dog control, lack ofbicycle paths,recycling, lack ofadvertising of public events,and the need for Davidson toremainpolitically autonomous.
Former Davidson VMCAPresident Larry Duncan calledfor more interaction betweenstudents and the community."Many students forget they'rea
part of the Davidson com-munity. Their only ties to thecommunity are with the postof-fice which they visit twicedaily."Duncansaid.
Mrs. Erving McClain spokefor the black community. Shecited four areas in which im-provementswerenecessary.
Mrs. McClain called for"equal and not token represen-tation" on major town boards,attempts tokeepallmembersofthe community equally in-formed of events in Davidson,year round recreation forchildren, and community fair-ness where "youdon't have onestrike against you just becauseyou'reblack."
"Davidson is a special com-munity in that it is really threecommunities." Abbott said. "Ikind of like the imagery ofthree-in-one; it's trite butsignificant."
"The Community RelationsCommittee will still exist as anadvisory group to the townboard." Abbott explained."However, this new steeringcommittee will be forming acompletely independentcitizensorganization."
"The independent citizensorganizationis a moreidealisticgroup than the CommunityRelations Committee," Abbottsaid, "perhaps as a result ofthisgroup, townboardmeetingswill be better attended."head-ded.
Abbottexpresseddelight withtheMondaynightmeeting."It'sone of the best turnouts we'vehad for acommunity meeting.
"I'm very pleased with theenthusiastic response and thewillingness of the citizens tospeakout,"he said.

StolenBooksPrompt CheckerLast year over 200 books were stolen from the
libraryat Mary Washington College,amounting to ap-proximately $2000 in replacement costs. Noting thatthis loss of books led to a definite break down in ser-vice to the people using the library. Ruby Wein-brecht, head librarian, decided to institute severalnew procedures.
A checker has been installed in the library lobby towatch for books not signed out by students. Studentsand faculty also are required to identify themselvesat the door, and visitors must give their name, ad-dress, andreason for using the library.
In another step taken to prevent book thefts,studen-tscan nolonger takebooksout of thereserve room.
"We realize the inconvenience to students by thenew desk check, but weare simply trying to improveour services," explained Weinbrecht. "The loss ofbooks slowsour work downbecause,insteadof addingto our collection, we are replacing books. Often thebooks cannot bereplaced."
StudentsProtest CalendarFor several weeks the 1973-74 academic calendar at
Western Carolina University has been a subject ofcontroversy. Proposed by WNC Chancellor Jack K.Calton,the calendar adds three weeks of classes andshortens Christmasandsummervacation.
A similar calendar proposed by Carlton for thecurrent academic year had already been rejected bythestudent and faculty Senates.
Last week WNC students marched on the chan-cellor's home to protest next year's calendar. As aresult of faculty and student protests. ConsolidatedUniversity President William Friday has decided toinvestigate theWNC squabble.
ExamHonor SystemDiscussedBefore exams were taken at Randolph-Macon
College, a mandatory assembly was held for allstudents concerning thehonor system as it relates towarns.The responsibilities placed on students by theexam system were explained, and questions con-cernmg the pledge and what does and does not con-stituteanhonor infraction wereanswered.
All students were required to sign a statement in-dicating that they fully understood their respon-sibilities concerning exams and thehonor system. Nostudent was allowed to take his exams until he hadsignedthe statement.

% § GORDON\ ,Have youever wondered what it takes to work as a
school mascot?Dave Bender, the Davidson Wildcat, will tell you it
takesabout H) to 15pounds ofsweat per game."Sure it gets hot in there." said the sophomore
math major. "But it has itsadvantages."The biggest advantage Bender sees in it is the
positions he obtains."It isa great observation place." he said. Youcan
really watch the girls. It is just like wearing a pair olsunglasses.
"
The job Bender holds down is physically strenuousThepaper mache Wildcat head weighs 2f> pounds.
Bender really loves the job.thougn."Thelittlekids love it too.Igive away at least three
or four autographs per game." he explained. "Isignthem The Cat "
As one might expect, transporting a 25-pound headto away games might present problems. That isespecially truesinceit willnot fit intothe trunk ol anycar.
Usually Bender simply ties it into the trunk. Butwhen Davidson traveled to William and Mary lastmonth, it was raining and he could not tie it down inthe trunk.
So heand a helper squeezed it into the front seat ofacar and drove to Williamsburg with the head next tothedriver.
"Try that for fivehours." laughed Bender.This is Bender's second year as mascot for the
Wildcats. He has doned the old warmup suit andheaded for many contests since themiddle of the 1971-72basketball season.
He first became interested incollege mascots whilehe was a high school student in Pennslyvania atSpringfield High. He made frequent trips to thePhiladelphia Palestra, where the St. Joseph'sHawk,one of theall-Americanmascots, operates.
"One of my biggest thrills as The Wildcat was lastyear when we went to the NIT in New York.Igot tomeet my idol, the St. Joe Hawk, while we werethere, " saidBender."I would love to go back to the Palestra and do a
game."Maybe his feelings will be taken into consideration
when future schedules arebeingcompiled.One of the abilities that is requiredof most mascots
is to perform in thehalftimeone-on-one contests TheWildcat is doing far better at this than his team. 12-8on the year,isdoing.
Bender is undefeated thus far in this competition.He beat the Indian from William and Mary, tied thewell-knownDuke Blue Devil, grabbed a scoreless tiewiththe South Carolina Gamecock, and swamped thePrincetonTiger andN.C.StateWolf withforfeits.
"TheWolf and theTiger claimedthat they couldnotshoot in their costumes. They should try doing it witha 25-pound Wildcat head on their shoulders," Benderchallenged.
At any rate,Davidson has a mascot that it can beproudof.It takes a lot of determination to do a job that gets
littlerecognition forprovidingsomuch schoolspirit.Perhaps therewillbea time whenTheWildcat pulls
a trick similar to the BlueDevil,whohas been knownto roost ona goalpost at football games andgingerlyjabrefs in theposterior atother contests.
PredictionTimeLook for the Cats to snatch one from The Citadel
tomorrow by at least12 points.As for the Furman contest, Iam going for the
hometown boys by three ina 92-89thriller.After the two wins, the Cats willnot choke in thebig
one against Appalachian, winning by 25or more in arunaway.
It looks likeanother regular season title for the Catsfrom here.

The swimming teamenteredinto what Coach Ted Severnsaid would be the hardest partof theseasonlast week.
After an easy winover John-son C. Smith last week, theteam was defeated by Augustabyascoreof70-32.
"That's what happens whenasubsidized team meets an un-subsidized team." summedSevern'sopinionof themeet."Idon't feel that wedidbadly
against Augusta, they were justtoostrongfor us. As a matteroffact, just about everyonelowered their times."headded.
Severnalsonoted that severalof the team members wereunable to compete because ofthe flu.
Tuesday, the team droppedwhat he termed, "the tightestmeet of the year." to Ap-
palachianbya64-49score.The final score wassomewhat
deceptive as the meet wasdecidedby thelast twoevents.
Severn felt that the teamturnedinitsbestperformance ofthe year.
"If we had just gotten a fewbreaks, we could have won themeet,"Severnsaid.
This feeling was echoed bybreaststrokerRusty Saylor."I feel that we could beat
them if weswam them again, itwas just a real close meet."Saylorsaid.
Severn cited several in-dividuals for their efforts in themeet.
"Pete Alfred did an excellentjob for us in the short freestyleevents. John Knox did an out-standing job in thediving for ustoo,"Severnstated.
He alsosaid that he was verypleased with Rusty Saylor andDeren Ferris,bothof whomhad
missed several meets with theflu.
Two school records werebroken in the meet, by JackDoseher andJohn Scholer
Doscher set a new record inthe 200 yard backstroke with atime of 2:15.8, and Scholerbroke the 1000 yard freestylemark witha timeof11:39.3.
Severn was especiallypleasedwithScholer's time.
"He justclipped itby severalseconds without much effort,"henoted.
The team is currentlypreparing for their biggestmeetof the season according toSevern. They will swim againstKniory in Atlanta today inwhat Severn expects to be theclosest meetof the year.
"Right now our record is3-3."Severnsaid.'but basedon whatthe team has shown in the lastcoupleof meets.Istill predictawinningseason."

Cats Lose In Overtime By 3,Take Revenge On Keydets
Byai\KUKSL\(,I.KStarrWriter
Davidson's Cagers split theirtwo games last week, losing toWest Virginia 88-85 in doubleovertime and defeating VMI105-88
The West Virginia gamedisplayed two prominent traitsof the 72-73 Wildcats. Thesetwo traits are the team'sinability to pull away from ateam and their scrappy nevergiveupattitude.
The first half was playedevenly with Davidson havingthe slight advantage as theybuilt up a lead as big as eightpoints. The half ended with theCatsholding a38-34advantage.
Starting off quickly in thesecondhalf, the Cats built theirlead to as much as 11 points.Itlooked at this point as if thegame would be a runaway.However, the lead remainedabout the same until WestVirginia ran off eight straight

commented that because of theteam's size, theyare "not acon-sistent rebounding team." Thisfact was very evident againstWest Virginia because duringthe Mountaineers comeback inthe second half many missedfoul shots were turned into WestVirginiabaskets.
Another reason for thisinability to pull away, ac-cording to Holland, is that theteam plays toocautiously whenthey get a lead. Holland saidthat to run a team out. "wewould need to play flawlessbasketball for40minutes."
Flawless basketball wouldalmost be the word to describeDavidson's first half per-formance against the VMIKeydets.
The Cats built up a 21 pointleadin the firsthalfand went in-to the locker room with thescore59-42.
Davidson had shot aphenomenal 69.9 percent fromthe floor. Also for the first timeDavidson had used all 11players in the first half. Two ofDavidson's 59 first half pointswere a result of Greg Gerdy'sfirst pointsof the year.
The Cats slacked off in thesecond half and coasted to thevictory with the score ending105-88. The Cats finished thegame with a field goal per-centageof 59.4.
The team placed four men indouble figures ledby Dunn whohad 20 points. Falconi, MikeSorrenttno and Horowitz added17.13and12respectively.

The YMCA hopes to open theremodeled depot in severalweeks, according to PresidentWoody Connette.
Most of the $10,000 face-liftinghas been completed; howevera fence still must be erectedbetween the building and thetracks as specified by the con-tract reached with SouthernRailways.
Although the building will beready soon, the actual programmaterial has yet to be fullydefined
Basically the depot will begeared for the community'schildren Saturday morningmovies, elementary art andcraft programswith nominal in-struction will be part of the for-mat Hopelully the tutoringprogram will alsobeexpanded.
The YMCA is still looking foractivities geared to the collegestudent which are not normallyhandled by the student Union.
A co-op exchange is being ex-plored This system initiallywould provide for the exchangeol clothing, with possibly craftsand groceries later being in-corporated.
The YMCA also hopes tobecome active in the com-munity drive toward improvedhealth services in the NorthMecklenburgarea.
Connette is fully aware of theneed for proper Depotmanagement.Vandalism is anobvious potential problem, butConnette was pleased thatnothing wasdisturbed while thebuilding was being recon-structed.
