Similar reports were re
ceived just before Christmas

casions coeds reported dis
covering that checks were
missing from their check
books Kassinger said that it
appeared that these checks
were stolen by magazine sol
icitors, then forged with the
names of the coeds on them.
The solicitors were report

By WAYNE SAED
This column is going to try to fill a gap left by the two 'Top
40 radio stations in Athens Though one can hear plenty of
Top 40 hits by listening to ihese stations (WOOL and WRKCi,
one hears very few album cuts. Yet statistics show that al
bums make up a fantastic 80 per cent of all record sales, while
singles come in a poor second with only 20 per cent
If albums aren't played on the radio, then you’ve got to learn
about the ones you want to buy from some other source, such as
a record review. For this reason, the record review will be an
important feature of this column, but by no means the only one.
In addition, there will be pop news and views, and whatever
there is of interest.
CAN’T SECOND-GDESS BEATLES
I'll start with the best, the Beatles Their latest album, enti
tled simply The Beatles' (Apple Records SWBO 1011 is sim
ply beautiful. It first of ail proves that the Beatles cannot be
second-guessed. It was generally agreed by the people in-the-
know in the record industry that this album would have the
weirdest, flipped-out. psychedelic cover ever to be seen in pop-
dom
They weren't quite right It is instead pure white, with its
surface marred only by the title, which is printed in raised
while letters
If the two-record set could have possibly been condensed into
one and a half, it would have been a perfectly solid album They
way it stands, it falls short. I have nothing to say about the first
two sides because everything about being perfect has already-
been said However, except for Birthday” and Long, Long.
1-ong." side three is nothing bul a brilliant streak of mediocrity
which would be considered good for anything bul the Beatles,
and it should have been left canned
SHOULD OMIT 'REVOLUTION ’’
Just one other cut should have been left out and that is "Rev
olution 9 ” It consists of an eight minute, fifteen second,j
George Martin-inspired, mass of sound effects. Its space could
have been filled with something more worthwhile. Omit the cuts
suggested and you're left with a perfect album and a half
While I’m on the subject of the Beatles, I want those of you
not fortunate enough to have picked up Rolling Stone No. 22"
which contained a reproduction of the controversial John Len-
non-Yoko Ono record cover and a full rear view of them on the
back i to know that you didn't miss much.
Though many people praise "The Two Virgins" I that's the
record title) as a return to nature. I find Miss Ono ugly, almost
repulsive, and Ix-nnon looks like every other naked man I’ve
seen in my life. By the way. the album is a recording of John
and Yoko reading poetry with an appropriate musical back
ground
"YELLOW SUBMARINE" COMING
One final note on the boys: The color cartoon, "Yellow Sub
marine." produced under the auspices of their Apple Enter
prises, will soon be shown in Athens. Go see it; a splendid time
is guaranteed for all.
Any real blues fan should make "Truth" (Epic BN26413!
part of his record collection. It s by Jeff Beck former lead
guiarist for the Yardbirds On this album Beck proves he is one
of the best guiarists anywhere. He doesn't do the vocals
(they're ably handled by Rod Stewart ) but aside from that
the album is all Beck.
He arranged every cut on the album except Greensleeves"
and it is obvious that he is a very talented arranger Without a
doubt. Morning Dew" is the best son on the album The song
was released earlier by the Grateful Dead. Lulu and late last
year by the Sweet Smoke, who used Beck's arrangement but it
didn't sound nearly as good as the original Two other favorites
are the updated "Greensleeves" and "Old Man River " Once
again. "Truth represents blues at its best and you can't ask
for more than that.
FOUR TOPS FILE SUIT
For all you soul men and women, I can offer three good rea
sons why the Four Tops and the Supremes had only one top
hundred songs between them last year ("Love Child" - Su
premes I The three reasons are Holland. Dozier and Holland.
These three lave written and produced every big song the Su-
premes and the Tops have had (with the exception of "Love
Child) and in the Iasi year the trio hasn't done a thing for Mo
town Records The three claim that the Motown empire was
built on the exploitation of their team, and have filed a $22 mil-
lion suit to prove it
On the other hand. Motown filed a $4 million suit against
Edward Holland. I-a mom Dozier and Bran Holland for failing
to perform as songwriters or producers in 1968 In the mean
time. Motown is withholding all royalty payments due the trio
in an effort to apply economic pressure to the team.

Six Flags Holds
Job Interviews
The Red and Black inad
vertently printed the wrong
story in th Thursdy, Jan. 9
issue about Six Flags Over
Georgia interviews. We are
running th correct story today
with apologies for our over
sight.—ed.
The mammoth job of inter
viewing. screening and hiring
1,500 hosts and hostesses that
will staff Six Flags Over
Georgia during the 1969 oper
ating season will begin on
January 18.
The personnel office, as in
the previous two seasons, will
be looking for riverboat cap
tains. train conductors, bal
loon girls, ride operators and
countless others for the 227-
acre family entertainment
center.
Interviews will run from
January 18 until opening day.
April 12. According to Charles
Jarrell, Personnel Direc
tor."Were looking for both
high school and college stu
dents,” Jarrell said. "The
emphasis is on personality,
willingness and enthusiasm "
Applications will be taken
daily, Monday through Satur
day. 9 to 5. at the Six Flags
Personnel Office located at
the park off Interstate 20.
west of Atlanta.
Explaining the duties of a
host or hostess. Jarrell stat
ed. '"Hiere are a wide variety
of jobs available and the po
tential host of hostess might
find himself piloting a river-
boat up the Ogeechee River
on Jean Ribaut's Adventure,
ushering guests into the
Keofft Puppet Show, keeping
relations between the guests
and animals in Petsville
friendly, or countless other
jobs.”
Jarrell went on to say that
the Six Flags Over Georgia
operating policy will continue
in the same maner as in the
past two seasons, enabling the
park to give the hostess or
host a flexible working sched
ule. depending on availability.
Hosts and hostesses regularly
work an eight hour day. six
days a week.
Russell Hall
Holds Class
In Dancing
Discotheque dancing class
will be offered beginning
Wednesday from 8 p.m. until 9
p.m. on the third Boor lounge
of Russell Hall.
The class is open free to all
students, faculty, and their
families, with the roll being
made up of those who attend
the first two sessions. After
the second session, those who
are on the role will be admit
ted on their ID cards.
Among the dances being
taught are the African
Twist. Funky Broadway and
the Continental Boogaloo.
According to instructor Der-
rell Lee. a professional dan
cer who has appeared on
"Where the Action Is”, it all
grew out of the requests for
individual instruction, in the
modern dances. "Judging
from past sessions," Lee siad.
"we expect that many of our
students will be going steady
by the end of tth quarter Two
couples who met in the dance
class actually were married
last summer."
A grade will be given for
the course, since students like
to know how they are coming
along, but no credit will be
given, Lee said
2310 WEST BROAD
STREET
It was further pointed out
by the Six Flags personnel
director that students should
nut assume that all jobs are
filled immediately. Although
a majority of the students re
main for the entire operating
season, there is some turn
over. and jobs are continu
ously opening up.
Angus G Wynn, Jr., presi
dent of Six F'lags former par
ent company, the Great
Southwest Atlanta Corpora
tion, firmly believes in the
value of the hosts and hostess
es.
"No area of our undertak
ing is as vital as our hosts and
hostess staff." Wynne stated
“We truly consider the
hosts and hostesses to be
the backbone of our organ
ization."
At the close of Six Flags
operating season, twenty out
standing hosts and hostesses
will receive scholarships pre
sented by Wynne
6 Square 9
Exhibit
To Open
A exhibit devoted to (he the
me of the square, entitled
"The Square in Painting."
will open Wednesday at the
Georgia Museum of Art and
run through Feb. 9
Selected by painter Ri
chard Anuszkiewicz. the exhi
bition is being circulated
throughout the United States
under the auspices of the
American Federation of Arts.
Anuszkiewicz says in the
forward of the illustrated ca
talog published in conjuction
with the showing. "Man has
involved himself with the
phenomenon of the square
since his beginning The
square is found in ancient
writings and in the rock in
scriptions of early cavemen.
Through the centuries, man's
intrigue has led him to create
systems with the square and
to relate it to himself and to
nature. The history of art is
permeated with the square as
one of the most basic shapes
known to man. "
The exhibit surveys the use
of the square in the 20th cen
tury painting with emphasis
on contemporary artists. The
show includes paintings by
Josef Albers, Ilya Bolotow
sky Fritz Glamer, Victor
Vasarley and Chartnion von
Woigand. Among the painters
of the "second generation ot
the square " are Hannes Beck
mann, Alfred Jensen. Bill
Komodore, Mon Levinson and
Reginald Neal.
Included in the group of
younger artists who work with
the square are Jo Baer. Rob
ert Barry. Susan Blank. Mel
Butor, Ferdinand De Vilo,
Robert Huol. Will Insley, Tom
Trengrove and Mason Wells,
as well as three artists ot the
anonima group — Ernst Benk-
ert. Francis Hewitt and Ed
win Mieczkowski
Anuszkiewicz says of the
showing. "The most notable
fact for me . was the diversi
ty of the work, far greater
than one would think possible
from such a restrictive title.
Variety is further enhanced
by many relief paintings and
the use of non-conventional
materials in crealing these
works "
