Page 2 A Message To freshmen, sophomores, honored three-year students, faculty, adminiistration, and others, I wish to convey my most siooere and heartfelt greetings. Don't stop reading yet. For many of you this particular paper is a new and vital source of information, aggravation, and spasmodic mental disorders. You won't want to miss any of these del~gihtf ul experiences. The surest method of ensuring that you don't is to buy (don't stop readinjg yet) your TIMBER-CRUISER subscriJption NOW. It is very, very important that you do this, for if you don't, the TIMBER-CRUrSER will lose mo~ ney, our business manager will fall iseriously ill, the staff will be wilthout a paper, and the world will come to a violent end. You will save money iby buying your subscription now. There will be at least nine issues at fifteen centis ea,ch. Bought separately, they wou1ld cost $'1.15. No, $1.25. Any- way, it costs less to purcha'Se the subscription. It is quite posgible that there will be more issues than nine . . . we hope to chanjg,e the paper from a "monthly digest" to a weekly or biweekly newspaper. It is of the utmost importance that you purchase your subscrition now,. for you will most probably want all the the issues to read, to discus1s, or to wrap yO!ur garbage in. Suit yourself, but buy a subscription. --:-G.H. ---------------------- ---- Giavaras Leaves ,Jit grieves me ideepl,y to repoll't that Mr. John Giiavar.a1s, instrurtor in ihii.stofy, wilil not ,be ,a member ,of the A.C.C. facuJity ihdJs iyear. ,Those whio knew "Giv" !both as an iiirustructOT and as a friend will und!ou'btedly miss mm.

On ithe assumption vh.at ,these plans will materialize, I would [i:i.ke to Dean take this oppor- tuil!ity ito w e 1- come Ii n comiing freshmen and re· turning s o pho- mores: At the moment, i-t ap- pears that enroll- ment will be ihigher, although the ra-te of in- Van Lare crease Wlill not be ,as ,great •as was the case fa.st year. A detaiJed a:nalysis of enroll- ment will be provided itlhe \Student ,body in ,subsequent issues of tlhe 'IllIM-BER-CRUISER. Alt; ,this rune, I would like to urge :both freshmen and sophomores ,t-o set ihl~ •aoademic standards. Lt [·s ,becoming :increa·sinigly eviident that only students w110 prove ,t:hat ,they are scholars wil:l 1be given an op- pontuniJty ito proceed to a b~helor',s -degree. lit is perihiaps unfortunate, ,bu,t neve]:bheless, true, tha-t \higher educational oppoiitunities ,in the next few years will ,be limited to ,those wlho clearly demonstrate that they are capable students. ,I would rl:ike to also adv-i'se stu- dents •to make careful pliam.s regard- .mg ahl •activiities ,an,d have all de- tails of any enterprise carefully planned and alil details arranged weM in adviance of any deadlines. For example, 'Wlitlhin ithe last half hour, I rtalked to a father of one ,of our gmduates about a filnanci pro- blem •that was greater than would normally be the case, because itJhe graduate delayed until midsummer to •apply for @ NDEA Loan; ,and, consequently received onl:y one- half tile ,amount tha-t would have been available had the ,graduate applied last spirimg. TJie conring year, ,ait the moment, :looks Jiike a good ,one for ,the Col- lege. 1Iit may well be mhe most sig- nificant isince ithe Oollege :0pened. -More on this Ja,ter. lt is the elev- eruth year of 1Jhe College, the begin- ning of tlhe second decade, and it promises to co:rutinue the ,suhstan- hal -grnwmh, ,both in quawity ,and quant1ty ithat rthe Co:Iilege has al-- w,ayis enjoyed. There ,is reason to be1:ieve ifihat rt!here wi11 ,be gre•at studerut initerest d.n ,the Oollege and loyalty to it •as rthe Dolilege rthat :represents their first exper- ience with ,h,i,g:her edurati,on. iin •subsequent columrus, I wilQ indicate SOIJlle ways in ,which thi:is interest and 1oya-Lty ~an ibe demonstrated iand implemented .
