...fact a puerile tease. Perhaps he has acted wisely in avoiding graphic scenes, since the one time he allows lovemaking to advance beyond a kiss, he loses sight of good taste entirely. Alcon's buxom nurse bursts in on her patient while he is drying himself after a shower. She grabs him, engulfs him with heavy snorts and slavering kisses, and finally pulls away the bath towel. Before the camera fades out, we are treated to a good, long vis-a-vis with Alcon's rear...

Deer in the Shower. Every Aggie joins the uniformed Corps of Cadets for at least two years. Senior cadets ("leather-legs") may wear breeches, boots and spurs, and mercilessly haze the freshmen ("fish"), who at all times "whip out" (shake hands) and cry: "Howdy! Fish So-and-so is my name, sir!" He-manship is undying. Hearty lads skin deer in the showers, carry Volkswagens up four flights of dormitory stairs, and work round-the-clock piling timber 100 ft. high for the purgative bonfire before the Wagnerian game with the University of Texas (U.T. has won 44 times since...

In fact, the man isn't paid yet. That bill is too high...

...physics kit. Fuller prepares lunch himself-usually canned soup, fruit, bread, butter and milk. The kids say grace in Russian, eat at their desks, and return their plates (scraped) to Fuller in the kitchen. If they stick to this Spartan routine through high school, Fuller is sure, colleges will shower them with "a multitude of scholarships." Exam for Parents. On Fuller's office walls are two pictures, both of Senator Barry Goldwater, who "typifies what this school stands for: individuality and self-responsibility." On Fuller's desk is Goldwater's The Conscience of a Conservative, from which...

...Life. Outward Bound is a cold-shower-like British idea, begun in 1941 by Founder Kurt Hahn of Scotland's rugged Gordonstoun School* (TIME, Nov. 14, 1960) and London Shipping Magnate Lawrence Holt, who were alarmed at the number of seamen lost in World War II because they did not know how to cope with emergencies. Hahn and Holt started a rigorous sea-rescue school in Wales, saw it as an analogy between being "outward bound to sea" and "outward bound to life."
