Johnson James Cass The Pesident' s Retiement It is not an easy thing fo a college, o any institution fo that matte, to lose its pesident in midpassage Any numbe of things might seem to be indicated by such an unexpected tun of events, most of them bad It might seem the pesident felt the ventue doomed and wanted to get out the quickest way possible O it might appea that intenal conflicts within the College had foced a divisive fight that had compomised the pobable success of the new college The tuth is clealy that neithe of these eventualities has come to pass, and whateve causes guided Pesident Lund to his esignation wee suely not disillusion o conflict Hence, one of the impotant aspects in the analysis of Pesident Lund's esignation is that he took his decision fo his own easons, and that decision does not eflect instability in the College itself Howeve, to say the Pesident's decision does not eflect cuent instability, and to say that it will not lead to instability ae two diffeent things A lengthy inteegnum o an acting pesidency could lead to substantial poblems in this most citical peiod of Kenyon's gowth We uge the Tustees to act with all possible haste consistent with finding the ight man And we uge the Kenyon community itself to avoid factionalism and divisiveness duing the somewhat tying peiod ahead It is ou impession fom studying the College and its histoy that the new pesident must emphatically not be a pimaily academically oiented individual We have one of the finest academicians in M Haywood, the Povost, and, as he himself has said, he can best handle the academic affais of the College fom that post The man the College must have is a businessman, one who is attuned to the situation of the libeal ats college, and one who can take aggessive leadeship in all aspects of College administation Kenyon College is still fa fom its goal at this time, and it would be a teible mistake to put a man at the helm who is weak in the pactical aeas that ae most impotant to actually eaching that goal The College, at this point, must not be allowed to founde, even fo a moment, and to this end we must have a stong leade at Kenyon as quickly as possible Finally, we want to expess appeciation to F Edwad Lund fo giving the College ten had yeas of his life He has come unde citicism in the past, but the geat accomplishments of his administation cannot be ovelooked And it must suely be a painful decision,to step down this close to the ealization of what he has woked fo, and, whateve his easons ae, we must egad the Pesident as a man of couage fo taking

muddle though The College claims that it can give a fist ate education as one of the top ten institutions in the county As fa as I can see this claim is no longe waanted a-lo- Kenyon seems to be coasting ng on the oad of mediocity The College definitely has a futue, but its leadeship in the academic wold has vanished Kenyon's loss of leadeship has been caused by lack of leadeship in the college community itself No one in the administation seems to have a fim policy If a cisis occus, thee is ample student-faculty communication, but thee is an inability to make any decision When a clea decision is made by one membe of the administation, the est geneally efute his conclusion Instead of one policy, the college uns on five Some examples of Kenyon's lack of leadeship ae the cuiculum change, the physical education discussions, the Time advetisement fiasco, the equivocation on Leonad Hall housing, and possibly in the futue, the women's college Such poblems somehow solve themselves, but the oppotunity to make the best of them is always lost The cuiculum was completely ovehauled, but no one was quite sue what was wong with the old one and today we still have its poblems A petition of ove half the students was gatheed denouncing the physical education equiement and it has taken nine months fo a faculty committee to each a decision diametically opposed to that of the students Time, Inc geneously gave the college a page fo an advetisement that would best expess the objectives of the college The advetisement tuned out to best expess the objectives of a high school The housing poblem in Leonad Hall has existed fo the past ten yeas The question of what to do with fou fatenities in a building that holds thee comes up evey yea Each time the decision is postponed and each time the poblem becomes wose Fo powe minded students the confusion of the administation would seem a boon But in this case divide and conque does not wok Authoity inheently ests with the administation Students can easily get a membe of the administation on thei side but who is to make the decisions? eithe no one does o evey one does and nothing happens The next two yeas will equie stong leadeship at Kenyon An intelligent policy fo the women's college is needed if it is to become "anothe one of Kenyon's fists" and not just a copy of Havad and Radcliffe At its pesent level Kenyon will suely suvive, but it can not lead the small libeal ats colleges in the nation while confusion and mediocity eign in Gambie J B Townsend '70 The Accent House Contempoay Accessoies fo Moden Living

listen to jazz" In the middle fifties, jazz was diected towads the "seious listene" The "seious listene" undestood technique, pogessions, and hythm foms Today the attitude of the listene is changing; he is looking fo something moe than intellectual pleasue He finds also that thee is a physical pleasue in the sounds of New Jazz The key is involvement Chales Lloyd, Downbeat's man of the yea, is in the foefont of this movement Technically, Lloyd's quatet is as good as any goup of the middle fifties Added to this intense musicianship (Lloyd composed the majoity of the pieces of the goup) thee is the feeling of total pesonal involvement which is passed on to the audience The Quatet plays as a unit and also as fou distinct musical pesonalities In evey piece they play thee is an undelying unity At the same time each membe of the Quatet injects his own ideas into what the goup is playing In the same way, thei musical ideas ae expessed in thei solos Lloyd's music moves fom the lyicism of Stan Getz to the sheets of sound developed by the late John Coltane His solos wee continually inventive He neve held an idea too long He kept exploing new pattens Continually undelying this wee the blues oots of his development This was evident paticulaly in his teno sax wok It is supising and exciting to find these oots evident also in his flute wok Keith Jaett uses evey pat of his instument He woks inside the piano almost like a guita playe doing slide wok and picking the stings He even develops hythm pattens with the foot pedals Behind the keyboad, he is a sensitive caftsman, awae of himself and each playe It is unfotunate, due to limits of the sound system, that we wee Mc-Luenot able to hea moe of Ron 's wok It was obvious fom his solos that he is a solid and sue bassist with an amazing ability to develop melodic lines He also shows a total knowledge of his instument and its possibilities The dumme showed himself to be a fine base aound which the goup was able to wok Howeve his solo lacked any sense of oganization o development He appeaed to be a man who was just hitting anything and eveything in sight It is obvious fom the concet that The Chales Lloyd Quatet stands in the foefont of the movement which was begun by Phil Rino men like the late John Coltane, Miles Davis and Thelonious Monk They daw fom a vaiety of Afo-Cubastyles (Ameican Blues, n, Indian and New Jazz) and pefom them all with a high degee of technical poficiency The sum total of this fusion is a fom of music which involves each membe of the Quatet and the audience Thei playing shows a deep sense of pleasue and excitement which is conveyed to the audience New Film Goup Comes to Foe by Geg Lenske As the Film Festival digs - deepe into the minds of most students and into the guts of a few, elated

Wokshop has, thanks to the SPC and special effots by Jeffey Fishe and Richad secued a pofessional 6 mm unit complete with a fully automatic zoom lens To make this camea available to all seiously inteested in this at fom, as well as to geneate such inteest, is the intent of the goup, which consists of about a dozen people and as many deams and designs in vaious stages of development fo filmmaking activity Fishe cites a kind of class instuction in the use of the equipment and the amassing of a film bank, o eseve, as coal-la- y wokshop goals In addition of he looks to the attainment a financial esponsibility that will allow film costs, now individually assumed, to be subsidized (the wokshop has spent its $966 and moe in the acquisition of a minimal amount of filmmaking equipment) Feshman Phil Rizzo talented well-acquainte- d photogaphy enthusiast with the wokshop and the equipment, cites expeimentation by Bandt and wok on a film study of light by Jel Fishe, as well as his own
