Page Four SCARLET AND BLACK Friday. March 5, 1%! Not Physically Pfit Says Plitscli, PfIabb y, Pfat Seniors May Pflunlr ny Jim i-ierzog Approximately 100 of 132 senior men have so far tailed to complete the physical education objectives required for graduation. According to John Ptltsch (phy- llcal education), only five or six Out of the 100 are "in jeopardy of not graduating." Pfitsch said that the vast ma« jority of the men have completed art of the physical education oh- ctives which qualify for two aca- demic credits and are needed for graduation. The present senior class at Grin- lies is the first to graduate under Ihe revised physical education re- quiremean instituted in the fall If 1561. To pass physical education, sen- lors must (1) pass the college lwimmmg test, (2) demonstrate Iliill in two individual carryover sports, (3) pass a physical fitness lest, and (4) participate in team Iports. “The situation isn‘t really as bad as it looks,” Piitsch said. He has checked each student's prog- less, and said that all are within flange. "There isn’t anybody who does- n‘t feel he can complete the re- quirements,” he said. Looking at the indivtdual re- quirements within the program, Pfitsch said that there are only two seniors who have had to re- sort to classes this semester to complete their team sport require- ment. Normally, the team sport requirement is satisfied by par- ticipation in at least four intra- mural sports. Piitsch said some men have not yet passed the swimming test, but only three or four oan’t swim. The others are people who haven’t taken the test yet. He said there isn’t anyone Who will find it im» possible to complete the swimming requirement. According to Plitsch, five or six men have not completed the physi- cal fitness portion of the test. Most of the 100 men who have not completed their physical edu- cation requirement iack either a major or a minor carryover sport, said Plitsch. He added, “The great majority or these have done work in one or both carry-over sports. Looking fairly closely at the situation, I think it's going to be okay." Pfitsch said he was most con- cerned about the four to six men “who've chosen to procrastinate." In their cases, few of the physical education requirements have been completed and their graduation is doubtful. As to the program itself, Pfitsch feels that it has been successful. He Sald, “I think the people I have worked with have gotten more from this program than the aid program." The old program applied to the class of 1964. The worst offenders in failing to complete the requirements, said Pfitsch, are the varsity athletes. Offered for men as majors are the following sports: tennis, golf, acquatics, small Craft, bowling, and karate. For minors the same sports are offered, and in addi- tion, bndmiton, paddle tennis, fencing, riding, skiing, ice skating, and unicycling can be taken for credit. (CPS) More than 150 students from the City University of New York have volunteered this semes- ter to tutor chlldren in remedial subjects at schools, churches and community centers in Harlem.

Asserls ‘Firm Believer' in letter To the Editor: I write this letter because I have a firm belief in the im- portance of the maintenance of the civil liberties of any mem- ber of any society. In spite of the fact. that a college commun- ity is a unique kind of society, possibly even because of this fact, I feel that the liberties which are guaranteed by the Sixth Amendment of the United State OOHSLituLlOn, and the Uni- versal Declaration of the Rights of Man. should apply to Grin- nell College. The right of the accused to confront his accusers has been a basic right of Americans vir- tually since we became a na- tion. Despite the fact that this has not been the custom in all academic institutions, the es- sential justness of this position seems to me to be confirmed. It may be argued that such a right in a college society would be impractical. It would be. if the goal of the college were "practicality”; however, just as in the society beyond the col- lege community, the loss of an amount of that which is i‘practical" is the price which we must pay for our freedom. Why should we not be willing to pay this price in a college community as well? Is freedom not to be as valued here as in the Outside world? Should not those rights which we regard as basic in the outside world be basic to all phases of life, in- cluding that of the college com- munity as well? My argument is not that we should adopt this liberatarian position because it is practiced in the outer com- munity, or because it will edu- McCormac letter Scorns Carl Gray To the Editor: Columns like Carl Otis Gray's: last one are the type of things that make people want to say, ”Send ’em back to Africa!"

Lester Tobias Returnee to Speolt About Peace Corps “A venture in mutual under- standing” is what Dudley Weeks Calls his two year Peace Corps teaching assignment in the jungles of North Borneo. Weeks, a 24 year-old graduate of Southern Methodist Univer- sity, will be on me Grinnell campus Thursday and Friday, March 18 and 19, to speak about his experiences. Weeks, knowri to the Villagers as “Sigar”—the leaderiworhed in the rice patties to learn the dialect, taught English, history, and geography, organized a Boy Scout troop, gave first aid demonstrations, taught sewing, and gave swimming instruc- tions. The village in which Weeks lived fit the Peace Corps “image”—it had no running water and no electricity. As a matter of fact, most at the vii- lagers had never even heard of America. Weeks' involvement with the young people of his community did not end when he returned to the United States. Using his own money, Weeks returned to Borneo to set up an education fund for students to continue their schooling.
