Beaeon Set For Applied Botany Class By ANNY NONOMOUS "The need for applying the fun- damentals of botany has led me to approve the establishment of a beacon that will be placed in the middle of the arboretum," Uni- versity President Harlan Catcher announced last week. President Catcher explained, "This beacon will allow the stu- dents to go to the arboretum at night to supplement their lecture and lab courses by additional preparation in the fundamentals of their course." According to President Catcher, this new plan provides that lab assistants will patrol the arb nightly to "see that the students don't confuse their bushes." Field Permits President Catcher's plan also provides that in order to gain ad- mittance to the arb, the students' must display permits whichshow that they are botany students "who are interested in furthering their knowledge in this field." The proposal has created a marked effect upon the student population. Registration in botany classes showed a sudden increase, so great that the classes were filled the first day of registration. There were varied opinions among the students concerning this new move on the part of the president. Many of them felt that by the establishment of this bea- con, the University would be wast- ing money which could be put to better use by boosting the sal- aries of the football players. SL Poll SL members feel very indignant over the fact that this plan wasn't put into their hands. "President Catcher could have at least had a student poll before he approved this plan," stated Bed Lion, '8Ag, SL pres, IFC pres., Johann Batty, '59SN, said, "Speaking on behalf of the University's fraternity men, we feel that the illumination of our horticultural haunts will upset the natural process of photosynthesis, thus ruining one of the Universi- ty's most well-known landmarks. The next thing you know, they'll be focusing flood lights on the doors of the Women's dorms." There were many students, how- ever, who had never taken botany and greatly approved the plan, Greeo Plants "I've always been interested in botany, plants and things like that," Jack Lausen, '56M, said, "My mother always told me I had a green thumb." Sally Lovell, '57F, said, "I think that this new idea will prove to be very interesting," as she bent over to examine an eucalyptus leaf. "As for me," said Percy Bennet, '57, adjusting his horn-rimmed glasses, "I think this beacon will put a little more light on the sub- ject," dissertation on "My Vacation" at 4:15 p.m. tomorrow in waterboy Gymnasi- um.
