A year later, the paper be con- ceived in that room is well on its way to becoming one of the finest in the country. The National Ob- server is its name and ‘Carter. is its: Managing. Editor. This is not, however, the story of just another newspaper. The Na- tional. Observer is .different: Its most spectacular difference is that it is a weekly—not a weekly news magazine like Time or News- week, but a weekly paper with the ‘traditional newspaper format— big page, newspaper type, and tradi- “-tional headlines (thoughno““scream= ers” as most: dailies have.) - The paper is_ specially ddeaigned for weekely reading. It offers, not ___bits and pieces of news, but compre- hensive, unified, intelligent accounts of the most important happenings of the week, plus background ma- terial that gives perspective to the “hot” . news .and-peints—up--broad trends. Another difference between The National Observer and the dailies is that the former does. not try to’ record everything that happens dur- ing a week.. The editors, Mr. Carter explained, have tried to “break away from the cliches”. of the newspaper world. They decide, not only: what is news, but what is important news, and try to “bring together all the average American: citizen should know” of current hapenings, “We want an optimistic, happy Desjardins Views Camus Rat Image Sees ‘Dirty Truths’ Speaking ‘at a lecture and discus- sien sponsored. by Interfaith on Oc- , tober 8, Paul Desjardins, Professor of Philosophy~at Haverford, raised several questions concerning the phi- losophy of Albert Camus:as express- ed in The Plague. “Mr. Desjardins began his lecture by commenting on the symbolism of "Oran, the...setting... of... The.Plague.|— The city apparently represents the): world in its isolation. For the people of Oran there seems to be no past, and the future is so uncertain that they live for the pres- ent only.- Also, they are isolated from each other as. well as-from the dimly perceived world beyond the —eity—walls,-so_that—no, one can—hope, for external help of any kind,” The symbolism of ‘the rats which appear before-the plague~was -also discussed. Mr, Desjardins himself seems to. think they represent the “dirty truths” underlying the “anti- septic” surface © of our lives.’*Thus they become .a part of Camus’ ‘ex- pression of the idea of “salvation ‘by enlightenment,” and must be faced no matter how unpleasant. Some of - those present at the discussion ex- prague ‘an. opinion that’ the rats of humianity.. Mr. Desjardins then interpreted ' showing that Camus approves of the characters who stay and fight the}-- see that the world represents a hope- less and irrational situation. Hevertheleté, through this reali- zation we reach “salvation” by tran- scending the world sand continuing to live “decently.” Therefore, éven the seemingly _ irrational - suffering of an innocent child is in some ways justified. : Mr. Desjardins. commented on this ‘philosophy: -by questioning whether it is justifiable to live in a. “tradi- tional”. way if there. appears; to be “no reason for doing so. woo vy ) halk 2 gents’ Board of ,New York,” publication,” Carter continued; “one that’ sere the bright things of the country. # Consequently, The National Ob- server often seéarehes: for. the off- beat, the unusual , feature or story or picture that will give the paper this quality of “brightness.” . As an-example, during the week when the headlines screamed de- spairingly of crises-in Cuba and Mississippi, the Observer displayed a happy .touch by printing a front- page picture of astronaut Walter Schirra’s....parents...grinning ...widely after his six-orbit flight. | ‘In the same vein, the paper car- ries “the hardest crossword puzzles in the, country” and a column, not of recipes; but of “food for food’s sake,” by an articulate food buff. The-Observer’s: editorial policy .is not-an -explicit-one. - It reflects the paper’s title: the editors want not t decide so muchas to observe. They take a stand on each issue as they ‘see it, unlike most newspapers and news magazines, who have a stated, consistent editorial policy. - To present “the broadest possible range of news,” the paper draws upon the broadest possible sources. About 50: correspondents are .sta- tioned throughout the-eountry. The Observer uses a great number of both domestic. and foreign press services, buys pictures from other papers, and can reprint stories from such sources as The London Times. All this is brought together in a trim package that, the editors hope, will never exceed more than.32 pag- es, about 15 of them containing news matter. The reason for such an unusual wish stems from the editors’ belief that most. papers have too much bulk, and pile up on the reader. Al- though The National Observer is not | a paper to be skimmed, as-Mr, Car- ter pointed out, it-is easily readable, The paper .now~has a circulation: of about 200,000. On a recent tele- east devoted to it, it was called one of only two ‘truly national newspa- pers _in-the country. Perhaps what its success has prov- ed most strongly is that no longer do newspapers have to indulge. in “yellow journalism,” pin-up pictures of movie stars, and axe-grinding edi- torials to be read. Bryn Mawr Joins A Tutorial Project| For Philadelphians During the past summer, a group’ of 165 college students participa- ted in"an experimental program. of |* tutoring high school. students in the* Philadelphia area. The en- couraging results of the summer have led to a planned expansion of the Brogeat: into- the winter mon The dudelphia ‘Tutorial Pro- ject has invited Bryn Mawr and Haverford students to .join a pro- gram_as- tutors in’ the Overbrook, area. The program is sponsored by |¢ the‘National Students Movement, al. coordinating body of 35 campus civil rights groups in New England and New York, , The teen-age high school ‘stu- dents are principally from low- income, urban families where. ed- ucational motivation is often low -and-many —students~ fail, to. attain their. educational potential. As a result, the high school. drop-o rate in the areas in which the tutorial program is working is ex. | tremely high. Pupils are referred to the Tutor- ial Project Board by the teachers and guidance counselors in their schools, by ministers: and. the Crime Prevention Association; but it is interesting to note that many of the students: have themselves indicated a°desire for tutorial aid. ‘Most .of ‘the students’ participat- ing in the program will be in the eighth, ninth and tenth grades. The college students will devote one and - one-half hours a week to an individual tutoring session in the particular subject with which. ‘the pupil is having difficulty. The time of these sessions. will be arranged by the participants themselves for their own convenience, Times sug- gested are Monday through Fri- day at 3:00 or 7:00 p.m., or any time on Saturday. The tutoring will take place. at community cen- ters whose location will be chosen| for the convenience of both tutors and students.

His initial tactic was to reduce the question of school segregation to a basically non-existent case. He logically enumerated the: laws and “decisions which ‘led to his con- clusion. With the entry of Basnott and the University trustees into the struggle, the question took on wider implications than it had when the contest was merely be- tween. Méredith and the Univer- sity.

Although he admit- ted that the prayer was offensive to certain -groups (i.e. atheists, find those not acknowledging God -as an Almighty being), he also cri- ticized it on the grounds that it was useless and somewhat mean- ingless. Furthermore, he argued that no exception to the First Am- endment should be permitted, re- yardless of its size. Not- only ‘is he assuming that this is a violation of the Constitu- tion. (which. seems. questionable, considering the great amount of protest regarding the Court’s de- cision), but, in addition, he seems to feel that it might be permiss- ible to: let. this. case pass; if only) future decisions. Is he .suggesting that the Court decide a. case on decision, rather than on the basis of the merits of the case itself? It appeared that Mr. McKay was not. terribly certain -of the stand “he, was taking. .

But it must be remembered that the goal is disarmament and world peace under world. law.
