FOUSE'S faculty got together with him regularly through the years, even after he left Goodrich in 1937. "It was a congenial group and the congeniality was brought about by his personality," Elderkin said. "We decided flowers were not a lasting enough Hibute for a man who had done for us what Russell Fouse had done." I and women who want them.

Such legislation may make Ruth Pequinot at Lawndale. NOBLE ELDERKIN, who retired from North in 19G1, got them together to help install a plaque to Fouse's memory outside the principal's office. Goodrich was an eighth-grade elementary school when Fouse was sent there. Ninth and 10th grades were added on as a sort of appendage to the elementary program. Many of the high schools were on double sessions and the "strikers" were running around outside the window.

"It was fifth period. I tried pulling the curtain so we couldn't see the boys and girls outside," Elderkin said. Finally he gave up. "You don't want to be here," he told his class. "I'm going down to see the janitor for a minute and if you aren't here when I come back, 111 understand." They were gone when he returned.

"Strikes were few and far between in those days, but it overcrowding at East, Garfield and Central by sending seme of their ninth graders to Goodrich. And then the tenth grade. FOUSE not only pulled this unlikely l-to-10 organization together, he injected it with such spirit that when it was returned to elementary school status, the ninth and 10th graders protested. In fact, they went on strike. Elderkin recalled he was trying to teach what was left of a ninth grade English class That may be a bit of an exaggeration, but University of Akron students will be able to charge their fees through BankAmericard or Master-Charge accounts, if AU trustees accept a finance committee recommendation at their meeting April 26.

Kerns feel more fortable, but it probably won't have much effect on the mores and morals of the students who really gained control of their personal campus destiny when loco parentis went out the window, house mothers were replaced by head residents (usually graduate students), and 24-hour visitation privileges were accepted. WITH formitories operated more as hotels than homes, maybe the best any university can do is provide locks and bolts for doord.

It does seem only fair to assure students at least as much privacy as they could have in a hotel if they want it and many still do. One co-ed in a top-rated private Ohio institution, whose parents were paying over $2,800 a year for her education, said it was not only embarrassing, but absolutely impossible to study while the two or three other girls in her suite were, entertaining their boyfriends.

Another student, in a letter to a campus newspaper, wrote: "This co-ed idea, in, my opinion, has been forced on many students by a small but vocal minority.

It is my belief that if a secret ballot referendum (rather than a verbal survey where peer pressure is great) were held, a significant percentage of students would be opposed to co-ed dorms." They Remember Russell Fouse It's a rare principal who can pull together a jerry-built school program and build a loyal staff, all within three' years. But' that's what the late Russell L. Fouse did at Goodrich School between 1934 and 1937. Last week, more than 20 members from that era gathered at Goodrich to pay tribute to Fouse, who died last October at the age of 82.
