Members of the SGA Executive Com-mittee acted as chairmen for the workshop section that corresponded to their par-ticular office. These sections were designed to acquaint the officers of Tovvson's ap-proximately 52 organizations with the skills necessary to carry out efficiently the duties of their offices. Dr. McKinney spoke on Satur-day morning. He stated that ""the time is now for us to do those things that will prepare us to be leaders in the commu-nity; . � to be changing the world in the likeness of our dreams."" He elaborated on the many characteristics of a good leader, such as physical vitality, self-discipline, intellec-tual maturity, courage and con-viction. ""A good leader takes noth-ing for granted,"" continued Dr. McKinney. ""He can dele-gate authority. . . . but he cannot delegate responsibili-ty. He must be prepared to do the difficult things in life . .. and he must be pre-pared to face the possibility of being wrong."" Dr. McKinney emphasized that students can bring about changes that will make for a better world. He stated that he had never seen American stu-dents demonstrate for more aca-demic freedom. ""No one ever really lives as a man unless he becomes involved in something. Individuals have an obligation to be prepared to make a dif-ference in the world."" After Dr. McKinney's speech, the Conference broke up into several sections for a Communications workshop. These sections discussed the problems of communication at Towson between students, colleges, students and the administration, and between Towson and the community. An effort was made to derive concrete solutions for these problems. After lunch, a panel discus-sion, chaired by Dr. Hathaway, dealt with ""What's happening at Towson."" Special emphasis was placed on the fact that al-most 75% of the Centennial budget was contributed by the students of Towson State. Dr. Hathaway also mentioned that approximately 25,000 copies of the Centennial brochure will soon be made available. ""Conquer Apathy"" was the title of the final workshop of the Conference. An attempt was made to define ""apathy,"" decide whether Towson has an apathy problem, and to offer concrete suggestions for the solution of the problem.

'Miss Janus' Opens On October 28 The Glen Players will present Michel Ghelderode's ""Miss Jairus"" on October 28, 29, and 30 at 8:15 p.m. in Stephens Auditorium. ""Miss Jairus"" is based on a medievel miracle play. The play is grotesque, sacriligous and humorous. It centers around the peaceful, but not necessarily happy existence after death. During the Burgundian period (15th-16th centuries) in Flan-ders there was a season of fes-tivities. The local population would take great delight in re-enacting the Crucifixion. The scene was quite life-like--and so were the victims. The author, Michel Gheld-erode, is almost as strange as his plays. He was a native of Flanders and, although he did have Budistic tendencies, he was a devout Christian. At the age of 30 he became a recluse, and his only known source of income was from the few plays produced in France by Louis Jeuvet. The costuming and masks for the play were designed by Thomas Mall. Mall received his ""Masters of Arts"" at Bristol, England. He has helped design the costumes at the Old Vic Theatre and also for the Bath Festival in Stratford, England. (Continued on Page 4) "
