Eagles Defeat
Lafayette as

BY DICK STAY
Star Staff Writer

Al billiard gave a hint in the
first minute against Lafayette
last night that a terrible cold
wasn't going to restrict his
basketball antics on behalf of
American University.
He started off on one of his
finest performances by smoth-
ering the games first rebound
and blocking three successive
shots. With the aid of whiffs
from an ammonia bottle during
timeouts, the 6-foot-3 sopho-

billiards. individual exploits
didn't quite overshadow the
Eagles best team effort Of the
season, which was necessary to
deal the Leopards only their
third loss in 16 games. Prince
ton and Assumption were their
other conquerors.
billiard Contributes Most
Jim Howell Clipped in with
eight straight points which
wiped out AUS last deficit in
the first half. Bob LindquiSt's
jump shots from the corner
destroyed Lafayette's zone de-
Tense early in the second and
Jack Isleib dumped in four of
his five goals to help keep
the Eagles safely in front near
the end.
All the Eagles, including Ron
RaWlins and Jim Shickora, con-
tributed something but billiard
the most. He held 6-foot-5
Chip Lundy to four points in the
first half and 10 rebounds the
whole game, and Lundy is one
of the Nations leaders in the
latter department. The Loop
ards captain showed his class
by maneuvering for II more
points after intermission and
finished with 10-for-15 from
the field.
Lafayette closed the gap to
two points three times early in
the second half before Rawlins,
Howell and Lindquist pulled AU
out to a 51-44 lead. Coach
George Davidson then called
for a man-to-man defense but
Lafayette is strictly a zone team
and the margin later reached
18 points.

Lafayette scored on half Of
its So shots but AU made 20 Of
So to win its fifth game against
seven losses. I'VE should win
with what we scored tonight"
Davidson commented, pointing
out his team leads the East in
defense with an average yield
of SIS points.
Assistant Coach Jim Williams
guided the Eagles for the ailing
Dave Carrasco, who also will
miss tonight's game with City
College of New York, at the AU
gym. 1T was a 100 per cent
Williams said, but we
might not get it against CCNY."
The AU freshmen also won
last nights preliminary, 1918,
over Naval Security Station for
their eighth victory in IL tries.

Leading college educators are
in agreement that the image
Of Federal employees and the
Government civil service has
improved noticeably during the
past decade.
While agreeing that the i'm
age is far from perfect the ed
ucators feel that there Is great
er public appreciation and
understanding of the Govern
ment and its employees than
ever before.
The subject - THE Federal
Image" - was discussed at a
two-day meeting recently in
Monticello, N. Y, sponsored by
the College Federal Agency
Council Of the New York re-
gion. The council is composed
Of leading universities and COL
leges in the East as we'll as

New York regional office anc
the various Government agen-
cies in the New York area.
The councils objective is tt
improve the relationships be.
tween colleges and the Gov
eminent, in order that more Of
the better college graduates
can be recruited for careers ir

Some of the educators can.
didly admitted that only a few
years ago they we're advising
their best students not to 81
into Government. Lack Of AIDE
quate Federal pay, lack of ad.
ditional training and education
opportunities while in Govern.
ment, and the vestige OF Nc.
Carthyism which they strongly
felt led to rigid conformisn
and an intellectual straight
jacket, were some of the rea-
sons that caused educators tC
discourage students from Fed
eral careers.
The college presidents, deans
and professors at the con-
ference were in general agree

changed for the better and they
now encourage many of theil

ployes chances for additional
education and training while
in the Federal service, the
witch-hunt atmosphere Of the
early SOS has disappeared, etc.
50 %&
PLUS AND MINUS - One
reason given why Federal en-
ployes are now held in greater
public esteem than previously
is the favorable comments
made about them by business
men who have served in Gov
eminent during the past decade
or so. Another reason is the
realization by the public that
the success or failure of our
form Of government depends to
a large extent on the ability
and dedication of its employees
and the fact that this has beer
stressed more often by segments
of the press and other COM
munications media which have
been more or less antagonistiC
to Government workers In the
past.
On the debit side, the edu-
Gators felt that failure OF Gov
eminent to keep its employ
ment down still leaves some Of
the public with the impress
sion that the Federal service
is a haven for boondogglers
Also, the impression still exists
in some quarters that Federal
employment is a haven for the
unambitious who seek a guar
antee of lifetime job.
Despite the fact that a con-
siderable number of Fedora,
employees lose their jobs In
economy cuts, this concept still
exists. Also, the impression re-
mains-and while this is wildly
exaggerated, there is a grain
Of truth to it that it is virtu.
ally Impossible to fire an un.
satisfactory employee.
IDEALISM URGED - DR.
Mason Gross, president of Rut-
gers University, one Of the key
speakers, urged a return Of
idealism in Government.
DR.. Gross noted that idealism
is almost a dirty word these
days and that nothing is SC
effective politically as when q
candidate attacks his opponent
as being an "idealist."

Woman Mayor Intimidates
Council Foe With Toy Pistol

OTTAWA, Nov. 16 (AP).-
Mayor Charlotte Whitton, who
used her fists and feet in an
argument Tuesday. startled
controllers yesterday when she
produced a gun. 1t turned out
to be a toy cap pistol, and she
wasn't wasting any ammuni-
ton.
Controller Paul Tardif, the
person pummelled by the fiery
little mayor in the earlier tiff,
jumped from his seat in alarm
at sight Of the weapon.
Fellow controller Lloyd
Francis quickly realized it was
a toy gun, and Miss Whitton
confirmed this by breaking the
pistol at the breach and wav-
ing it.
Private Meeting Asked
Later, Mr.. Tardif asked the
mayor whether the cap pistol
was loaded.

Yet, unless the concept of
idealism returns to Govern
ment in connection with gen.
uine crusades to strengthen
and improve our way of life,
the Government. cannot hope
to attract and retain in its
service all of the best possible
people 1t needs, DR.. Gross said.
While not discounting ma
terial things such as an ade-
quate Federal salary structure,
fringe benefits and the like,
DR.. Gross said that in these
material things the Govern
ment can never hope to COM
pete fully with industry. Con-
sequently, the Government can
only hope to get and keep the
best possible people by imbuing
in them a sense of loyalty and
dedication to Just causes that
they deeply believe in, DR.. Gross
noted. He recalled the '30s when
many Of the brightest people
from the colleges and univer-
stiles came into Government
out Of a sense of loyalty and
dedication.
Another speaker, the Rev.
Laurence Mckinley, president
Of Fordham University, decried
unjuStified attacks on Govern
ment employees.
Father Mckinley praised the
record and achievements Of
Federal careerists and said I'M
just attacks against them I'M
dermines the Government as a
whole.
Others participating in the
conference included Dean
Stephen Bailey of Syracuse
University. DR.. Stanley Kinney
Of Colgate University, DR.. Wal

Gardner Patterson of Prince

were New York University, City
