"Students are about to elect fellow students to represent them in their government during the next year. In order to best work for the students, Student Government must have leadership which will function in students' best interest." Hypnotism Can Prove Useful In Improving Learning Ability "Hypnosis may be used as an aid in improving a person's learning ability." The Reverend J. Douglas Gibson, pastor' of the First Methodist Church in Cedartown, will be present on the LaGrange, College campus on Friday to explain his work to interested students. Mr. Gibson will explain his method, theory, and applications to any students interested in hearing him, Friday morning at 10:00 in the Bailey room. He will remain on campus Friday afternoon for individual conferences with interested people. According to Rev. Mr. Gibson through hypnosis and the conscious application of posthypnotic suggestion, the student is enabled to utilize to a greater extent his actual learning potential. Hypnosis cannot give a person the ability which he does not already possess, but it can aid the student in overcoming barriers which directly affect his ability to learn and to apply what he has learned. Mr. Gibson has demonstrated this method with a number of students. By carefully worded suggestions he has enabled the student to develop a more positive attitude toward a particular subject, his fellow students, and his teachef..'He also aids the student ta--s^^hat he is doing in a lorfg-range \<'^ perspective, thus giving hiip. assurance that what he! ^.dSaingjjow is an important part orVrtluch larger whole. There are numerous popular i misconceptions about hypnosis ■ which are held by the public and professional men. Actually, almost everyone frequently. falls into spontaneous auto-hypnosis. This may happen when a person is daydreaming, . watching television, reading a book, or listening to a lecture. Most people who have driven for long hours along a monotonous route experience highway hypnosis.
