April 11.
Founder's Day
As much as we would hate to admit it we know little
of the background of our alma mater. For instance
what does April 16 mean to you?
Probably unless you have studied the background of
Howard Payne you do not know that this date marks
the birthdate of the Rev. J. D. Robnett founder of How-
ard Payne College. For this reason April 1G is set aside
as "Founders Day."
If it had not been for Dr. Robnett Howard Payne
College might have never been built. It was through his
interest that Howard Payne became a reality.
You may also wonder how Howard Payne received
its name. It was Dr. Robnett who obtained a substantial
gift from his brother-in-law Edward Howard Payne of
Fulton. Mo. and for this reason the college was named
for this donor.
Don't forget April 16 and what it stands for.
The only man who never makes a mistake is the man
who never does anything.

Reach of the Mind
By DR. JOE B. RUSHING
Did you t v( r have a dream and
lattr -u thi dieam become a
trahtv? Did yout roommate ever
make a statement which was ex-
actly what you were thinking
1 hough neither of you had men-
tioned it? Did you ever imagine
you had a certain power of clair-
voyance or telepathy?
Dr. J. B. Rhine would say that
it is highly probable that you
haw. One of the library newest
acquisitions i the volume en-
titled "The Roach of the Mind"
which l- the fourth hook by Dr.
Rhine on extrasensory perception
or as is more commonly known
ESP. This interesting and m-
furmativo work is not simply a
compilation of strange phenomen
but is a presentation of docu-
mentary evidence based on scien-
tific inquiry.
The study of extrasensory per-
cfption is not new. One of the
earliest organizations to promote
psychial research was the Society
for Physical Research founded in
England in 1882. Since that time
a great many individuals and
groups have collected a vast
amount of data on various as-
pects of the subject. Perhaps the
best known center is at Duke
"University where Dr. Rhine and
his associates have conducted
their experiments.
The book "The Reach of the
Mind" is primarily a report on
the experiments conducted at
Duke University over the last
quarter of a century. In it the
author presents evidence which
has caused him to arrive at sev-
eral conclusions. First telepathy
is a challenging exception to the
physicalistic trend of thought that
has dominated all of the sciences.
Secondly Dr. Rhine states that
the case for clairvoyance is clear-
ly established and furthermoore
space has no effect on ESP. Like-
wise time is no barrier to ex-
trasensory perception and the
1958
establishment of precognition is
a fnurth fieat advance in physi-
cal 'VJiarih. There must be ac-
"ii ding to Dr. Rhine an energy
"iivt'iuble ti physical action or
m more common terminology
"mind over matter." The lelation---hip
of mass and the mind i-
still a subject for further research
but according to the findings at
Duke and numerous other cen-
ters if you are a reasonably nor-
mal person who possesses .some
physical qualities.
Whether you are a skeptic or
a believer you will still find "The
Reach of the Mind a challenging
book. Dr. Rhine does not have
all the answers nor does he inti
mate that they are now avail-
able. He does however present
convincing evidence which .seems
to met the criterion of scientific
inquiry. Read it and draw your
own conclusions.

Pat Craus HPC student from
Beaumont won superior rating
for her participation in the Stu-
dent Congress where she intro-
duced and defended one of seven
senate bills adopted for recom-
mendation to the United States
Congress. Her bill called for ap-
propriation of the additional
funds necessary to keep the Unit-
ed States exhibit at the Brussels
World Fair open.

Minute
Meditation
By CLIFTON ALLEN
Jesus is both Lord and Savior.
How can Christians dare treat the
authority of the Lord with in-
difference? They need a renew-
ed sense of the greatness and
majesty of the Lord so that with
reverensense of the greatness and
majesty of the Lord so that with
reverential fear they would feel
constrained to obey him and to
keep all his commandments.
If we rebel against the author-
ity of the Lord we can expect
nothing but the severity of his
dcscipline and chastening.
Candidate's
Letter
Dear Editor:
Why are you running for presi-
dent of the student body? This
question has been asked me by
several students. Therefore in
this letter I would like to express
what I intend to do if elected
president.
I believe that the student gov-
ernment is the voice of the stu-
dents. By having good qualified
representatives of every area of
our school life on the council the
council can then move toward
meeting the desires of the stu-
dents it represents.
I intend to lead in a program
for better school spirit more stu-
dent participation in the activi-
ties of our school and a general-
ly all-rounded good program of
student government.
Sincerely
Jack Riley

Gift Is Made
For F. M. Station
A Howard Payne ex-student
has made a donation to the col-
lege of $3600 which the students
and faculty of two HPC depart-
ments expect to parlay into a
$10000 frequency modulation ro-
dio station through a do-it-yourself
project.
The gift which was specified
for a campus radio studio came
from Mr. and Mrs. Earl Hankam-
er of Houston and the station
will be named the Miller Studio
as a memorial to Mrs. Hankamer's
parents the late Mr. and Mrs.
M. F. Miller.
Mrs. Hankamer a member of
a family of three girls and five
boys was graduated from How-
ard Payne when it was a junior
college and later went to Baylor
University. Her family lived ap-
proximately eight miles from Lo-
meta at the time she was a stu-
dent in Howard Payne. One of
her brothers also attended How-
ard Payne.
The Miller Studio which will
be a non-commercial educational
station will be installed in what
now is the wardrobe room of
Coggin Memorial Theatre on the
old Daniel Baker campus where
the HPC Division of Speech Arts
is located. College authorities
hope it will be in operation some-
time in the fall. It will include
two studios flanking a control
room that will serve both.
The technical equipment will
be installed and technicians fur-
nished to operate it by the HPC
Science Club under the direction
of Dr. Fred Inman chairman of
the Department of physics. Pro-
gramming will be by the Division
of Speech Arts directed by the

Staff Sidelights
Peculiar things happen to East
Texas students and exes.
Thieves often steal an entire
car but Tom Moss Blossom
senior reports that the back
seat from his 1955 model Volks-
wagen is missing. "I can't figure
out what anyone would want
with the back seat from a Volks-
wagen" he comments wryly.
From ACC's THE OPTIMIST
There have been an estimated
150 traffic violations this semes-
ter according to Dean Beau-
champ who is in charge of that
phase of campus discipline. Most
of these have been for parking
in the red zones and in the facul-
ty parking lot.

division chairman Dr. McDonald
W. Held. Students of the Speech
Arts Division also will "pitch in"
to do much of the work on the
necessary' construction to convert
the wardrobe room into a mod-
ern studio.
The frequency modulation sta-
tion which will have the power
to reach only a few miles beyond
the Brownwood city limits will
have no commercials and will
have no requirements for mini-
mum hours of operation keep-
ing it out of any competition with
Brownwood's two commercial
stations college officials pointed
out.
Primary purpose of the station
will be to provide a training
ground for students in speech
theatre radio music science and
other college classes who will
prepare and broadcast original
programs in addition to programs
of good recorded music.
The tape and disk recording
equipment to be installed will
make it possible to record ad-
dresses and educational and en-
tertainment programs presented
on the campus for later use by
the campus station or interested
commercial stations as well as
for classroom instruction and club
programs Dr. Held explained.
The station's facilities also will
be available to assist the city's
commercial stations in carrying
live broadcasts of campus events
he continued.
As a public service college
authorities stiid the station also
would be available to carry pro-
motional information for civic
and welfare projects.
