Approximately three hundred graduates were awarded degrees Saturday by Dr. Paul S. Smith, at Whittier College's fifty-fifth Commencement exercise. The commencement address was delivered by Raymond H. Wittcoff, President of the Carradine Hat Company and chairman of the National Citizen's Committee on Edu- cational Television. Hershel Daugherty, television directors and member of the class of 1933, delivered the Charge to the graduating class. President of the College, Dr. Paul S. Smith, admin- istered 260 Bachelor of Arts Degrees, 32 Masters De- grees, in the fields of Arts, Education, and Science, and one honorary Doctor of Laws Degree to W. B. Camp, proprietor of one of the nation's largest cotton farms and pioneer in experimental agriculture. Six graduates were honored with special awards for their achievements in various fields. The Walter Friar Dexter Award for service to the college was presented to Harvey Charnofsky, former studenty body president, and Alma Martins, retiring president of the Associated Women Students. Arthur A. Seidelman and R. Nelson Palmer were presented with the Hayden Almendinger Awards for notable achievement in the field of drama. The W. Miller Barbour Awards for work in sociology went to Sanae Ishida, undergraduate, and Elizabeth Jensen Jones, graduate. Also honored at the exercises were those members of the undergraduate classes receiving the highest grade point averages. This group includ-

Each of these students received full tuition scholarships for the coming year. In his commencement address to the graduating class and some 3000 of their friends and relatives, Ray- mond Wittcoff stressed the need for the development of the educational facilities of the nation, through the use of federal aid. In reference to the opponents of federal aid, he stated: "There is no evidence that the Federal government has attempted to control education in large scale programs which it has supported, such as the land grant colleges and the GI Bill. People who understand

12 this and persist in their opposition to Federal aid to education at all levels seem either to be neurotic or to lack the candor to say what they are really against is any possible increase in taxes." Wittcoff called for the development of a vast educational TV net- work, devoid of advertising, as a further means of providing for mass learning. Previous to the commencement exercises the annual Alumni Day Luncheon was held at the College's Campus Inn. Speaker for the occa- sion was Dean E. Triggs, graduate of the class of '33, and Superintend- ent of the Ventura County Schools. The Alumni Association awarded achievement citations to Calvin J. Smith, general manager of station KFAC, and Rev. E. E. Ellis, minister of St. Paul's Methodist Church in San Bernardino. Included in the program was the initiation of the Golden Anniversary Club, the induction of the class of '58 in the alumni group, and the Alumni Association President Tom Wood and Vice President Dave Wicker congratulate Calvin J.

"The workers must be paid high wages so they can buy back the product." Like most popular statements about economics, this one is simple, misleading, and has an element of truth in it. Indeed, if our economy produced only consummer goods such as candy and automobiles, this doctrine would have a considerable degree of validity. But many of our workers produce electronic computers and steamshovels and railroad frieght cars instead of candy and automobiles. The noble worker, then, should hardly be expected to consistently buy back his product. The day has not yet arrived when the complete household must have a deck-size computer in the den and a pastel steamshovel in the back yard. Amateur economists fail to realize that much of our production takes the form of new factories, office buildings, stores, and the machinery and fixtures needed for their operation. Items of this type, which the economists call "capital goods," normally constitute something better than eight per cent of our total production. These goods are not intended for current consumption but are to increase our capacity to produce and distribute the goods which people do purchase for current consumption. Expenditure on capital goods is especially important in sustaining certain industries such as steel, cement, glass, etc., to say nothing of the construction industry itself. Whenever the pace at which new manufacturing and distribution facilities are being built tapers off, the effect upon certain industries is severe and almost im- mediate. As early as last June many economists foresaw the on- set of the recession in the fall. It was known then that spending on capital goods was slated to decline in the latter part of 1957. When this drop in spending did oc- cur, it coincided with an ill-timed reduction in govern-

He has conducted courses in Econ- omics at U.C.L.A. in addition to his work at Whittier College. Spangler has served as secretary-treasurer for the Southern Califonia Economics Association and was recently elected president of the Associa- tion for the present year.

Though the decline in the capital goods sector was the initiating factor in the recession, it was quick- ly reinforced by a decline in con- sumer spending, particularly for ap- pliances and automobiles. This latter development was not foreseen by economists (or anyone else), and it has made the recession more severe than was anticipated.

Internship Interesting for First Year Grad

Never has a year been so chaotic and so facinating! Coming to San Francisco last September for the Public Affairs Internship Of the Coro Foundation, I wasn't quite sure what to expect. Within the first week I was seeing the Municipal Courts of the City and County in operation —learning the administrative system, becoming acquainted with judges and attorneys, touring the prison, and sitting in courtrooms. At the same time I found all my afternoons and evenings taken up with whizzing around town with a redhaired, Irish power-house . . . a woman attorney who campaigned for, but lost, election to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors. And this was only the beginning of my nine months with the Foundation. Twelve college graduates are selected each year by Coro to undergo inten- sive training in the various fields of public affairs—government, business, labor, and politics. The training is accomplished by on-the-job assignments, in which each of us becomes a part of the organization and has the opportunity to observe the personalities, problems, pressures, and functioning of that par- At I. Magnin and Company, Carleen toured the stockrooms ticular field. with Mrs. Judith Small, and paused to try out a gown. My most enjoyable assignment was with Lodge 1327, the International As- sociation of Machinists. With their Business Agents I toured plants, sat in on negotiations and grievances, and in general loved the blustery, warm-hearted, rough and tough attitude of these people. In fact, becoming friends with the officials has led to my being in on some pretty exciting and unusual events, after the assignment ended. My other tours of duty have been two months each with: the California Youth Authority, I.

the awareness that things just don't function according to the book. This is true of any and every aspect of public affairs, and, I suspect, a great deal more. The realm of people, interests, and action is tremendously fluid, subject to many pressures and an element of chance. The black and white rules of a textbook education don't seem to fit too well; things are much more dynamic and alive than we ever thought. And secondly is the intensely human and concerned quality of the personalities in top level or near top, level positions. To know and work with these people, watching them in action, hearing their ideas and their values, finding out what made them the leaders they are—this is a thrill. There are many dramatic, warm, and sometimes even dangerous or humorous incidents that I could re- cite for you, involving people of this category, if space permitted. In general, however, it's been a rare experience to associate with so many ef- fective and influential people from the many different fields of action. Well, these are a very few of my activities and my thoughts from the past year. It has been challenging and hectic—not always pleasant or easy, but always interesting.

19 Montebello High School Proving Ground For Coaching Theories of W.C. Alumni

Editor's Note: One of the outstanding contributions of Whittier College in the field of education has been the production of top flight and successful high school athletic coaches. In an attempt to honor these men and acquaint their former college classmates with their present athletic activities, The Rock is going to run a series of articles concerned with the achievements of these alumni coaches. The logical starting point in this series is Montebello High School where eight former Whittier students are on the athletic staff.

Ten years ago, when Stew Pike first began coaching at Montebello High School, after graduating from Whittier College in 1948, the athletic teams representing the Oilers were anything but consistant contenders for top honors in California Interscholastic Federation competition. After a few years coaching at Montebell, Coach Pike was elevated to the position of athletic director. Soon after Pike took over as athletic head the Oilers became peren- nial contenders for San Gabriel Val- ley League and CIF honors. Pike has been varsity football and assistant track coach during his career at Montebello. His football teams have come to be highly re- spected as well drilled and enthusiastic competitors. His 1951 football team was the first to break into the championship bracket. They won the SGVL title in 1951. His teams are winning championships at the rate of one every two and a half years. After their first league title they gained top rank- ing in 1954, 1956, and 1957.

20 Since 1950 Pike has been assisted in football by Dick Reese. Reese was graduated from Whittier College in 1949 and has been at Montebello for eight years. Reese became the head track coach for the Oilers in 1950. In a sport where line-ups need to be jug- gled for every meet, he has proven himself capable of out guessing his opponents consistantly. In eight years of coaching Reese has produced five SGVL track champions. One of these five titles was gained in varsity competition, and came with "B" teams. Coach Reese feels that his two proudest moments in coaching were in 1951, when he assisted the varsity football team to its first championship, and in 1957, when his "B" track team won the CIF 660 yard relay crown. Ray Hooper, who was graduated from Whittier College in 1948, went to Montebello in 1949.

ALUMNI CHAIR Mother's Day, Father's Day, and the Spring Sing were compounded into one Parents' Day. A 20 man William Penn group directed by Blake Runcorn of Whittier won the sweepstakes and men's large division gold plaque.

This could be the college your child NO wants to enter in 1967.

VACANCIES It could be any college in the country in another ten years. Or every college, for that matter. It's a sobering thought. Farfetched? Not in the least. The blessing of a growing population has brought with it a serious threat to our cherished system of higher education. College classrooms and laboratories are already alarmingly overcrowded by mounting enrollments. Admissions authori- ties see no letup . . . in fact, expect to have twice as many applicants clamoring at the gates by 1967. Even more critical is the fact that faculty salaries remain pathetically in- adequate, and qualified people, dedicated but discouraged, are seeking greener fields, elsewhere.

If this trend continues, the time will come when our colleges will be less able to produce thinking, well-informed graduates. When that happens, American education will face a sad day. And so will our children, our country, our way of life.

But this threat doesn't have to become a reality. You can do your part to keep our system on a sound footing. How?
