Political Scientists
Gear Honor Code
For Early Approval
An honor code for political science
department may be put into effect
this quarter, Alex King, Atlanta,
president of Political Science Club,
declared this week.
The club’s executive committee ap
proved the proposal Wednesday and
presented it to Dr. Merritt B. round,
political science department head.
Dr. Pound said he favored the pro
gram, and would present it to the
faculty for approval.
Tenny Griffin, Valdosta, vice
president of the club, will determine
what steps must be taken to put
the code into action. It would ap
ply to advanced courses only.
The program, patterned closely af
ter the plan presently in effect in
Law school, calls for a court of two
members from each class. An oath
would be taken before each test,
binding students not to give or re
ceive aid on the examination.
Political Science Club ultimately
hopes to establish the code on a cam
puswide basis.
With Over grown Dice
Cohen Establishes Chances
For Crap Shooting Success
By Chuck Martin
Don’t ever shoot craps with Dr. A. C. Cohen.
You just can’t win.
The associate professor of mathematics has proved it with a pair
of four-inch dice which he rolls out of a bushel basket to establish
odds.
No Parking Space Shortage
Seen on Campus by Kinney
No parking problem will be cre
ated when work begins on the new
library, provided students take ad
vantage of all parking facilities,
B. C. Kinney, plant operations head,
declared this week.
The parking lot next to Peabody
Hall will be staked off as part of
the library area. Kinney recommend
ed that students park in the unused
lot directly across Jackson street.
The space will hold about 160
cars, Kinney said.
Test Registration Set
For Graduate Students
Graduate students who plan
to take language reading tests
must register by Oct. 14, Dean
George Boyd, Graduate school,
warned this week.
Students may register with
Dr. Jules Alciatore, associate
professor of French, Dr. A. E.
Terry, professor of German, or
Dr. Karl Shedd, professor of
Spanish. The tests will be given
on Oct. 17.
Registration for graduate stu
dents who wish to take the
graduate record examination on
Nov. 10-11 has been delayed un
til Oct. 14.
Saturday Students To Meet
Grammar and high school teachers
who will enroll in Saturday classes
this quarter will meet Saturday at
9 a.m. in Peabody Hall to discuss
plans and class needs.
Teachers receive five hours credit
for attending the classes once week
ly for a year.
But, Dr. Cohen said, the dice are
used only to illustrate what is al
ready figured out mathematically.
For instance, simple arithmetic
shows that the odds of throwing a
seven on the first try are only one
in six. Throw the galloping dominoes
a few hundred times, lie says, and
it’ll work out that way.
The overgrown dice Dr. Cohen
uses in his experiments are memen
toes of his Army career. While a
lieutenant colonel at Picatlnny Ar
senal, N. J., it became his task to
provide entertainment for the offi
cers' club.
He marked off a horse racing game
some 30 feet long on the floor and
had the giant dice made to match
the size of the playing area. He’s
had the cubes ever since.
The game that Army boys refer to
as "African Golf” is tough to beat
and Dr. Cohen can tell you why.
Here arc some of the figures he
gave.
If your point is four or 10, chances
that you will make it before throw
ing a seven are only one in three.
If your point is five or nine, the
chances are four in 10. If your point
is six or eight, the chances are raised
to five in 11.
"You can’t beat the lawB of
chance,” Dr. Cohen said. “The total
probability of winning at dice is a
little less than half, or exnctly
.49293.”

the difference!). . . You’ll look neat and natural. Bye-bye loose,
flaky dandrufl and dryness, too. So get close to Vitalis — get it
at any drug store or barber shop.
