Pandora Sets
Delivery Date
For’61 Edition
By DOTTIE COLWELL
The 1961 Pandora is scheduled
for delivery Monday. May 15.
\\ yck Knox, business manager,
announced that students may pick
up their copies of the yearbook in
Memorial ballroom between. 9 a.m.
and 4:30 p.m. on the following days:
Tuesday—Seniors, Law, Veteri
nary Medicine, and Graduate
Students.
Wednesday—Juniors and Sopho
mores.
Thursday—P reshmen and
others.
Friday—Faculty and others.
The 74th University of Georgia
annual to be published, the new
Pandora has a number of unusual
features. The cover, designed by
Howie Saunders, shows Confederate
and Union soldiers intermingled in
a gray and blue motif, and is the first
illustrative cover to be used on a
Pandora. Each student pictured is
indexed by full name and hometown,
and there is an index of organiza
tions. The books contain no adver
tising.
DEDICATION
Rather than being dedicated to an
individual, the 1961 Pandora is
dedicated to the ideals of dedica
tion and commitment exemplified a
century ago in the Civil War, and
now seen in the complexities of Uni
versity life.
The theme, carried out in pictures,
is expressed in the introduction by
editor Billy Rushing:
"As we mark the 100th anniver
sary of the War Between the Statfes,
the Pandora staff feels that this
historical conflict has given us high
ideals to which we must strive. Those
who took part in the war, above all
else, had that elusive but noble
quality—a sense of dedication, of
commitment to an ideal. .
WORLD OF 1 H<! I
"... the cover of this year's
Pandora recalls the emotions and
ideals of the world of 1861. Between
the covers we present our world
of today, remote from cavalry raids
and hoopskirts, but vitally alive with
a commitment and positive purpose
like that which was a part of the
conflict one hundred years ago."

Law students Patsy Morris and
Ronuld Williams, representing the
appellant, were victorious in last
Saturday's moot court flnul competi
tion.
In a hypothetical United States
Supreme Court hearing, Miss Morris
and Williams, representing John
Structor, swapped verbal salvos with
Richard Phillips and Julian Stewart
for the appellee (State of Lumpkin,
51st state in the Union).
Chief justice for the trial was As
sociate Justice Bond Almand, Geor
gia Supreme Court, and his asso
ciate justices were Judge Robert Jor
dan, Georgia Court of Appeals, and
Associate Justice Running Grice,
Georgia Supreme Court.
In summation, Judge Almand
pointed out that the moot court
exercises were the real practical
training grounds for future iuwyers,
and he complimented both teams,
saying that each could have held
his own in a real court of law.
SAVE DEFENDS PICKETEHH
Real court action occurred us a
result of picketing on the morning
of Law Day activities.
Prior to the arrival of Attorney
General Robert Kennedy five men
were arrested for parading without
a permit.
They carried pickets purporting a
Biblical basis for segregation.
Three of the men—I. B. Mont
gomery, T. C. Montgomery, and B. S.
Cole—are Pentecostal ministers;
the others are Thomas K Pate and
Elbert Loggins.
At their trial in city court Mon
day Dr. Albert Saye, University po
litical science professor, spoke as a
friend of the court.
Dr. Saye stated that the ordinance
upon which the men were charged
was unconstitutional and that they
were being deprived of their consti
tutional rights.
The court levied a $15 fine on
each of the defendants.
settee that is the meaning of Law
Day and every day must be Law
Duy or else our society will col
lapse.”
CIVIL RIGHTS
“You may ask, will we enforce
the Civil Rights statutes?" said Mr.
Kennedy.
“The answer is: ‘Yes, we will.’
"We also will enforce the anti
trust laws, the nntl-racketeerlng
laws, the laws against kidnapping
and robbing federal banks, and
transporting stolen automobiles
across state lines, the illicit traffic
in narcotics and all the rest.
“We can and will do no less.”
UNIVERSITY
Referring to the University inte
gration In January, the Justice De
partment head commended Georgia
students and faculty because, "when
your moment of truth came, the
voices crying 'force' were overridden
by the voices pleading for reason
you are the wave of the future—
not those who cry panic. For the
country’s future you will and must
prevail.”
America's Image depends upon
her actions, Mr. Kennedy stated;
therefore, "In the worldwide strug
gle, the graduation at this Univer
sity of Churlayne Hunter and Ham
ilton Holmes will without question
aid and assist the fight against com
munist political infiltration and even
guerrilla warfare.”
The Attorney General stressed
that "the problem between the white
and colored people Is a problem for
all sections of the United States . . .
I believe there has been a great deal
of hyproclsy In deultng with it. In
fact, I found when I came to the
Department of Justice that I need
look no further to find evidence of
this . . . The Federal government Is
taking steps to correct this."
STANDING OVATION
Mr. Kennedy concluded his first
formal address since assuming office
in January with this declaration:
“The roail ahead is full of diffi
culties and discomforts. But as for
me, | welcome the challenge, I wel
come the opportunity, and I pledge
my best effort ... to see that free
dom shall advance and that our
children will grow old under the
lule of law."
As the “new frontiersman" re
turned to his sent, he received a
standing ovation from the audience.
