The last two roles I've played were old men, in pro gressive degrees of oldness and I like getting my youth back.” Blue said. As Burden, Blue plays a cynical and intelligent young man. Bur den graduated from college with a history degree, but has been em ployed mainly as a newspaperman. He can't see any purpose in life, however, and because he so re spects "the big boss' " strength he has become an intellectual stooge for Willie Stark. Burden is on the stage during the entire play and talks with the professor, who sits by and com ments on the scenes. Burden tells a story and through his narration the scenes evolve. The theme of the play is “Can good come out of evil?” and Bur den defends this viewpoint, while the professor opposes the idea. Burden sees good in Stark's strength. Blue states his main interest to be in the radio field. He was chief announcer for KWAX for two terms. He has also acted in several productions on the air. He is a member of Kappa Rho Omicron tadio honorary. Some field of entertainment is Blue's future goal.

TRe/kot (cm Grades Favored For Competition Report Students By Jean Lewis “Do you favor the uho of grades In colleges and universities or would you favor their abolish ment?" Four students thought that grades should he given because competition makes people work harder and they let people know where they stand in relation to other students. Two thought that another grad ing system should be worked out as there is too much emphasis placed on grades and grades ui« not a true representation of how well a student is doing. Martha Baxter sophomore in history "If you didn’t have them nobody would work. Personally, I don't like them myself they give me an inferiority complex some times." Karen Watters freshman in lib eral arts "I think competition in spires you to do better work, so I think we should keep the present grading system." K.ll74iheth Johnson sophomore in liberal arts "No. I don't favor use of grades. They are not repre sentative of how person is doing. Iturliara Keelan sophomore In liberal art* "I think they place too much emphasis on grades. Sometimes a person may not get a good grade in a course but they get as much out of it. Grades should be based on capacity.” Bob Altman sophomore in pre law "I think a new system could be worked out, better than the one we iiave now, I think that under the present system the grade point is stressed more than it should lie." Ann ItoliliiHon freshman in lib eral arts -’’No, because for the amount of effort that's put in on each subject there should be some reward and the people who have studied would not get anything out of it. There would not be any point in coming to school if grades were abolished.” Nancy Pullen - sophomore In pre-nursing "I think there should be some system where the stu dent will know where he stands in relation to other students. There should be something to give stu dents an incentive to work and I think the present system is okay."
