Editorial Comments
Ah, Culture
Finally!
Finally Fresno State has entered the realm of intellectual
stimulation. It has become sophisticated. It lias a literary
club and a literary magazine.
When students are asked what can they offer aestheti¬
cally, no longer must they run and hide. Now they tan
proudly say. "We have a literary organization and a creative
magazine."
Now that we have taken sueli cultural steps, it is up to
we students to do our part. Cliche—yes, but it happens to
be true.
Are you a creative genius? Are you just creative {liter-
arily we mean) ? If so, you can be a part of the club and
the magazine. Essays, short stories, plays, sketches, satires
and poems are needed for publishing.^
If you aren't another Shakespeare, Kerouac or Herb Caen
you can still be active by simply buying the magazine when
it comes out in mid-January.
Fresno State has at last grown up—culturally that is. We
will soon have our own little literary magazine to love, cherish
and show to disbelievers.
In the words of me—LIKE AT LAST!  Pulitzer, here we

Important Role To Play
Wednesday, students of Fresno State College will stream
to the polls to select the five finalists for Campus Queen.
Fifteen pretty coeds, all with outstanding personality and
scholastic ability will be waiting in the wings to find out the
verdict of the day's election.
Queens come a dime a dozen on any college campus. There
are dance queens, club queens, athletic queens, sorority and
fraternity queens and department queens. They're every¬
where. Most of them are chosen because of tradition and
their brief reign consists of no more than a bouquet of roses,
a coronation at some event and possibly a climax of a kiss.
That doesn't make them very important, even though, by
gosh, they are pretty nice to have around.
There is another story involved with -the Campus Queen,
however. The title is considered by women on campus as the
highest possible honor attainable. The responsibility given
the Campus Queen is great, as she represents the college and
student body at events throughout the year. Her personality
becomes the personality of the school. Many people will tend
to judge the college by the impression made by the Campus
Queen. Her beauty, poise, charm and social graces are very
important.
Fresno State College is very fortutiate. Fifteen lovely coeds
are striving for the most sought-after crown on campus, and
each one of them is extremely capable of handling the queen's
responsibilities.
We do not envy the students who will be going to the polls
to vote Wednesday. Your choice wHTbe a difficult one. We
only hope that everyone who has taken a deep interest in
the queen contest will go to the polls.
We wish ttle 15 women, best of luck.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Dear Sir:
We are deeply appreciailv.
M. B. Schnildlz" Interest In the
Cuban situation. It is unfortunate
that his letter was so full of
glittering generalities' as lo ren¬
der It ludicrous. Yet. these gen¬
eralities    should    not    go    unan-
In reverse order, let us con¬

7,  1962.
1. We do not interpret glvjng
Tito outdated and near useless
fighters the same as giving the
Cubans medicine, food, and edu¬
cational and self-help opportuni¬
ties.
2. There Is every reason to be¬
lieve that since Castro visited the
United Stales twice In the early
days of his government he was
Interested In developing a friend¬
ly relationship with our govern¬
ment. It was the US and not Cuba
that broke the relationship.
3. We too hope we have not
fooled anyone and that our letter
encourages students to investi¬
gate the fact* and learn for them-
4. Maybe Schn.Ur. is also one ot
hose who only understands force.
rtie Issue was originally and Is
iow wtih Castro and not  Khrush¬
chev.

of  Castro  In  the  past  would  n>

would   be   very   cooperative   wll
