will NDEAby Neal JohnstonThe University will definite¬ly cease participating in theNational Defense Educationact (NDEA) unless the dis¬claimer affadavit is eliminatedfrom the loan fund provisionsduring this session of congress.This action was approved in aregular meeting of the board oftrustees yesterday afternoon.Glenn Lloyd, chairman of thehoard of trustees commented onthis action saying:"A clear-cut distinction must bemade between the Oath of Alle¬giance and the Affidavit of Dis-IvMief. The clear and simple Oathof Allegiance lies within theAmerican tradition. The Affidavitdoes not. It could lead to startingchamber investigations into aman’s belief and to governmentinterference in the conduct ofuniversities.”The action of the Board was inreality an endorsement of a reso¬lution passed December 8 by theCouncil of the University senate.T his resolution is printed in fullon page two of this issue.“I’m quite pleased with the ac¬tion of the Trustees,” commentedArthur Friedman, professor ofEnglish and spokesman for theCouncil.“Thisresolution was verystrongly supported in the Coun¬cil; I'm naturally quite happy thatthe Trustees have given us this provisions was to provide low in¬terest loan funds for students. Itwas primarily, but not exclusivelydirected at students majoring inthe natural sciences or modernlanguages.However, to be eligible forthese loan funds a student mustfirst sign both a loyalty oath anda disclaimer affidavit swearingthat he is not a member of a sub¬versive organization or any or¬ganization “that believes in orteaches the overthrow of theUnited States government byforce or violence or by any illegalor unconstitutional methods.”Howard Moore, secretary of theboard of trustees pointed out that“the action taken by the Councilrelates only to the affidavit andthat no objection is raised to theloyalty oath.”Chancellor Kimpton explainedthis in an interview with the Har¬vard Crimson, saying: “Off therecord, I don’t like the oath either,but we would lose if we tried totake on both at once.”After being passed by the fac¬ulty Council, the resolution wasconsidered by the budget commit¬tee of the University at a meetingheld January 4, and action wastaken recommending that the res¬olution be approved by the Boardof Trustees upon the understand¬ing that “it will be shown by astatement incorporated in or ac¬companying the resolution (a) cational institutions in objectingto the affidavit and that if theaffidavit requirement is not re¬moved during the present sessionof Congress, the University willwithdraw from the loan programat the end of the current aca¬demic year.”Trustees praise LAKBoth the Trustees and the Coun¬cil of the senate were vocal intheir praise of Kimpton’s effort in attempting to remove the af¬fidavit clause. The Council reso¬lutions read: “The Council com¬mends Chancellor Kimpton forhis efforts to secure repeal of theaffidavit requirement through theAssociation of American Univer¬sities ..Kimpton is chairman of theAssociation of American Univer¬sities (AAU); at their annual ing year,congress held late last year the group took a firm stand againstthe NDEA as it stands.

This is as necessary for my office as for the board.”With these words George Playe, Dean of undergraduate students, explained the series ofconstitutional meetings which he has been holding with Michael Edidin, chairman of O-board.The basic problem according to both Playe and Edidin centers around the question: towhat extent is the Student Orientation board an independent autonomous organization, towhat extent is it merely an ad¬junct of the Dean’s office. Playe,speaking for himself and for oth¬ers in the dean of students office,holds that orientation is primarilyhis function and his responsibility.The proper function of O board isto aid him.The O-board constitution, on theother hand states that “the Board. . . jointly with the Dean of Stu¬dents in the College (the formertitle of Playe’s position) plans anddirects the biannual Orientationprograms.”Several people In the Dean’s of¬fice have argued that the studentmembers of O-board have increas- Polipe believe that the body hasbeen there since last spring.

Hisparents assumed that he had goneto Texas to see his fiancee, aformer UC student who hadmoved to Texas for reasons ofhealth.The girl was contacted and hadnot seen or heard from Werden¬hoff. On February 26 the casewas given to the police.Shortly after this the girl inTexas received a letter from Wer¬denhoff, apparently written Feb¬ruary 20. The body of the letterwas in a code which Werdenhoffhad invented.

Both Har¬vard and Yale withdrew from theloan provisions during this aca¬demic year. Many feel that thishas succeeded in producing onlyresentment in congress. SenatorKarl Mundt of South Dakota re¬ferred to growing objections tothe oath — characterizing it as••mostly an Ivy league affair.”There is real hope in the Ad¬ministration building that Con¬gress might be induced to removethe objectionable affidavit clausethis year.••However,” the Chancellorpointed out, "it’s also quite pos¬sible that Congress won’t changethe bill.”Kennedy advocates reformOne of the main Senate advo¬cates of NDEA reform Is SenatorJohn Kennedy. One high adminis¬trative voice expressed concernthat Kennedy’s presidential aspe-lations might consolidate conser¬vative backing of the affidavit.TTiis anonymous official pointedout that Kennedy has not yetbeen very vocal on civil rightslegislation. He has latched ontothe NDEA amendments in an ef¬fort to endear himself with thepolitical liberals."Kennedy’s support will haveno effect on the Senate liberals,but the fact that he is a presi¬dential hopeful might well promptthe Republicans to attempt to dis¬credit him by blocking his at¬tempts to change the present act.”The Chancellor himself was un¬equivocal in his support of thefaculty action."The real flaw in the presentact is its vagueness,” complaineddean of undergraduate studentsGeorge Playe. “Who is to decidewhat organizations are subver¬sive. Suppose an organization Ibelong to is placed on the At¬torney General’s list the day after1 sign this disclaimer affidavit.. . . have I then perjured myself?No one yet has answered, thesequestions.”Even this wouldn’t be so bad,Playe continued, if the UniversityItself didn’t have to administerthe act.Under the present law the Uni¬versity administers the money,•wards the loans, witnesses theSigning of the oath and affidavit,and contributes one tenth of themoney involved. Of the quartermillion dollars which the Univer¬sity has thus far awarded, theUniversity has contributed oneidollar to the government’s nine."As long as the University iscontributing its money into thisfund it is tacitly endorsing the act,In all its forms and with all itsprovisions and that includes theaffidavit,” said one faculty mem¬ber who asked not to be quoted."The University also must payfor all the administrative expen¬ditures involved in the pro¬gram,” G. Richard Hopwood, di¬rector of financial aid explained.“This amounts to a considerableturn of money when you considerthe expenses of application pro¬cessing, letterwriting, billing andbookkeeping.”NDEA has good pointsHopwood feels that the NDEAhas had beneficial affects on loanfund procedures. The maximumamount that can be borrowedthrough NDEA is $5000. This ismuch more liberal maximum thanmost universities had accustomedthemselves to. The governmenthas also succeeded in populariz¬ing the idea of borrowing tuitionmoney, according to Hopwood.Hopwood is hopeful that theUniversity’s own loan funds willbe able to cover the ‘hole’ whichwill be created if UC drops outof NDEA. He pointed out thatUS has one of the largest loanfund programs in the country.Charles D. O’Connell, directorof admissions, is afraid that theelimination of the NDEA moniesmight have an adverse effect onenrollment. He added that he nev¬ertheless fully approved of theTrustees’ action, "Our academicfreedom is certainly worth theexpense and the trouble.”2 • CHICAGO MAROON • Jan. 15, I960Not all the faculty agrees thatUC is justified in dropping outof the NDEA. One vocal groupholds that the loan provisionsconstitute a direct agreement be¬tween the government and thestudent. They maintain that theUniversity has no justification forrefusing to allow a student totake advantage of the opportun¬ities afforded by the federal gov¬ernment.Milton Friedman, one of thegroup’s most articulate members,explained his position stating, "Ithink the disclaimer affidavit anundesirable provision of the law,”says Milton Freidman, UC pro¬fessor of economics. "I think itperfectly appropriate for UC toobject to it However if the lawis not changed, it seems to mewrong in principle of the Univer¬sity to refuse to participate onthree grounds. First, most of thecost would be bom by the stu¬dent denied access to the fundsand they should be permitted todecide for themselves whetherthey wish to participate underthese conditions. Second, a fun¬damental principle of democracyis that we are willing to go alongwith laws that we may not agreewith fully, so long as we havethe right to seek to change thelaw by discussion and persuasion.Third, the University would behighly inconsistant since it is nowaccepting funds under other fed¬eral programs which similar re¬quirements. Notably the NationalScience foundation fellowshipsand the funds which the Univer¬sity is receiving for classified re¬search.“I am opposed to federal aid toeducation just because it will in¬volve these kinds of restrictions.”Members of this group also ar¬gue that despite the fact that theUniversity does have large loanfund resources of its own, few ifany of the UC loans are as con¬venient and desirable as thoseprovided by the government.Hopwood assents to the ac¬curacy of this argument. TheNDEA loans have an extremelylow interest rate,* although totalrepayment does have to be com¬pleted within ten years of gradu¬ation, with the exclusion of timespent in the armed forces. Inaddition, students who teach inpublic schools after graduationwill have a large portion of theirloan automatically written off.No UC funds carry any such pro¬vision.Maureen Byers, president ofstudent government, commentedon the Trustees action by statingthat now that the University hastaken a strong position on thismatter, it is the obligation of allstudents to do what they can ineffecting the desired changes inthe NDEA bill, vThe resolution passed Decem¬ber 9 by the Council of the Senaterecommended exactly the sameaction as advocated in late No¬vember by the Student Govern¬ment.Many schools withdrawMany colleges and Universitieshave totally withdrawn fromNDEA during the year. In addi¬tion to Harvard and Yale theseinclude Grinell (Iowa), St. John’s,Goucher, Antioch, Wilmington(Ohio), Bennington, Reed andSarah Lawrence. Those whostayed out from the beginning ofthe affadavit include: BrynMawr, Haverford, Swathmore,Princeton and Amherst.President Griswold of Yale ex¬plained the action of his univer¬sity stating: "The . . . affidavit. . . partakes of the nature of theoppressive religious and politicaltest oaths of history, which wereused as a means of exercisingcontrol over the educational proc¬ess by church or state. The uni¬versities of the free world, espe¬cially those of England and theUnited States, have taken thelead in resisting and doing awaywith such oaths. Loyalty oathsare inherently futile as no sub¬versive or treasonous person hesi¬tates to use them as a cloak forhis intentions.”“Wait and see” was the policyat Rutgers, Tufts, Brown, Dart¬mouth arid elsewhere. PresidentBarnaby Keeny of Brown ex¬ plained that his school will alsocontinue in the student loan pro¬gram this year, to wait and seeif congress eliminates the affi¬davit. If congress does not actthis year, Dr. Keeney will recom¬mend that Brown withdraw fromthe program. He cited severalobjections to the affidavit, amongthem:"It does not specify the organi¬zations that are disloyal, so thata student of tender years mightconceivably belong to one and notknow about it, and be hung laterwith a perjury charge . . .“Most important, it amounts toan effort by the Congress to tellthe universities whom they cantake as students. The universi¬ties feel they are fully capable ofmaking that decision, rather thanhaving it made for them.”Keeney added this comment:"If I were concerned about ado¬lescent subversives, which I amnot, I would require them to at¬tend universities rather than seekto prevent them.”Not all colleges are opposed tothe oath and/or affadavit how¬ever. John T. Fey of Vermont isquoted in the Boston Herald assaying: "If Congress wants toimpose restrictions on the use offederal funds and it does not im¬pinge on the operation of theinstitution nor upon academicfreedom, then we cannot object.”"Unless I am missing some¬thing, the affidavit is no moreobjectionable than the oath ofallegiance.” So the same paperquotes the Very Reverend GeraldE. Dupont of St. Michael’s.Oath is 'worthy'North Adams State teacherscollege considers the program "aworthy one.” (North AdamsTranscript) New Mexico Westerncollege is happy with the pro¬gram (AP). The University ofBridgeport called the issue “Anacademic tempest in a campusteapot.” (Hartford Courant)Trinity college found no wide¬spread objections to the oath(Hartford Courant). Temple uni¬versity chancellor Robert L.Johnson said: "It is high timethat someone in higher educationpointed out that it is hard formany of us to comprehend thecontroversy that is going onamong some of our leaders ineducation as to whether or notyoung people borrowing moneyfrom the Federal governmentshould be required to support theConstitution and to swear thatthey are not members of anyorganization striving to over¬throw our country.” (New YorkTimes).New Mexico state universitysays "the matter of signing theloyalty oath is a personal matterwhich an individual can decide.”Hillyer college of the University of Hartford felt "it might seemungracious to bite the federalhand that’s feeding us.” BradfordDurfee college found no alterna¬tive "but to go along with it andet the individual student resolvethe individual problem.Reptal of the affidavit clausewill have no easy road in theSenate, according to Senator Gra¬ham A. Barden of North Caro¬lina, who promised to "Block re¬peal of the affadavit with everyenergy that is in me. I have beensigning allegiance to Americaever since I was a Boy Scout.”Barden, a Democrat, is chair¬man of the House Education andLabor committee. Repeal of theaffidavit would pass through hiscommittee.Columnists praise oathThe movement for repeal of theaffidavit has not had an easytime of it in the press, either.David Lawrence, the syndicatedWashington columnist, opposedthe stand taken by Harvard, Yaleand the other schools. He notedthe amendment offered by Sena¬tor Russell of Georgia and Sena¬tor Mundt of South Dakota at(he last session “which would re¬peal the existing provision andsubstitute language that wouldmake it a felony hereafter foranyone to accept a loan under theprogram and then participate inCommunist organizations or ad¬vocate the overthrow of our gov¬ernment by illegal means.”Lawrence characterized this as“a different law which in somerespects will be stlffer.” He alsoquoted from speeches favoringthe oath and affidavit, or strongerlegislation, made by SenatorsDirksen, Russell and Johnson.Communists operate on thecampuses of many colleges, Law¬rence went on to assert. "Theydo so in Latin America and inEurope and Asia.” And it is un¬fortunate that the college presi¬dents “are not willing to co-oper¬ate with Congress in the difficultproblem of breaking down theCommunist apparatus.‘strange’ that there was not muchprotest from “the heads of col-affidavit would "present no bar¬rier to those it is designed tocatch,” he argued:"But that’s precisely the reasonfor the oath itself. It is difficultto prosecute a Communist or aAgainst the argument that theCommunist stooge in this countrytoday because of technicalitiesraised in various court decisions,and about the only way to ferretthem out sometimes is by meansof perjury indictments.” He citedAlger Hiss as an example.Lawrence thought it wasleges or from the inveteratechampions of ‘freedom of asoeia-tion’ ” when the Federal govern¬ ment by executive order laiddown requirements that interferewith "freedom of association” inconnection with employmentpractices on government con¬tracts - - barring discriminationin hiring because of race, creedor color.Newspapers support oathThe Haverhill Journal andManchester Union-Leader wrote:"Fortunately, there are more sen¬sible taxpayers than muddled ed¬ucators when it comes to this is¬sue of Communist subversion.And those taxpayers simply willnot tolerate the giving away oftheir money to students whowould work against the very government which represents THEMThe fact that some educatorswould describe such traitorousactivity as being merely a matterof ‘personal belief should not gounnoticed by the American peo¬ple.”The Boston Record expressedthis editorial opinion: "The loy¬alty oath does not single out col¬lege students as more suspectthan other groups of Americans.It singles them out because theyare the particular beneficiaries ofa particular law. As a final point,we think that those collegeswhich refused to take part in theprogram, or have withdrawnfrom it, are taking an arbitraryatitude BY ASSUMING THERIGHT TO THINK FOR ALLTHE STUDENTS ... In this caseit is academic irony that theprinciples so firmly vouchsafedby the college presidents deprivestudents of FREEDOM OFCHOICE.” (Capital letters theirs)The Boston American, a Herstpaper wrote: "But is it such aninvasion of freedom to pledgeloyalty to a government that ismaking possible his education.We respectfully believe it is not.”While the Ansonia Sentinel mere¬ly asked the question: "Disgraceto vow loyalty?”A few days after all these Eas¬tern papers published these edi¬torials, the Boston Herald wrote:"How can it be said that the with¬drawal of 16 colleges and univer¬sities from the program, some ofthem the best scientific traininginstitutions in the country, doesn'tmatter? The withdrawals are de¬feating the program. When Con¬gress meets again, it should askitself whether the negative af¬fidavit, the piling of oath on oath,which is what most of the col¬leges object to is worth what itis costing. A simple oath of alli-giance by student borrowers sure¬ly should be enough (and manywill question whether even thisis necessary.) The need to drawmore talented young people intos'cience education is real. If wefail, we may lose the cold warby default.”Resolution of UC SenateRESOLVED, That the coun¬cil of The University of Chi¬cago Senate strongly opposesthe affidavit requirement forstudents applying for loansunder the National Defenseact; that the council commendsChancellor Kimpton for his ef¬forts to secure repeal of the affi¬davit requirement through theAssociation of American Univer¬sities; and that if Congress failsto repeal the affidavit require¬ment during the present session,the Council recommends with¬drawal of the University of Chi¬cago from' the student Joan pro¬gram.Statement of reasonsThe council of the Universityof Chicago Senate expressesstrong opposition to the affidavitrequirement for students apply¬ing for loans under the NationalDefense act for the following rea¬sons, among others:1. The affidavit requirementis descriminatory because it isnot applied to other recipients of federal grants, and manifests alack of trust in American stu¬dents and American higher edu¬cation.2. The vagueness of the affi¬davit renders it difficult for stu¬dents to know what the dis¬claimer covers or to defend them¬selves against possible prosecu¬tion for perjury.3. The affidavit requirementcheapens the concept of nationalloyalty by associating it with afinancial transaction.4. The affidavit requirementrepresents an affront to freedomof belief and conscience. As akind of test-oath substituting animplied threat of coercion forpersuasian in the realm of ideas,it seems counter to the philo¬sophical principles on which ournational strength was built.5. The affidavit requirementmay be used, if uncontested, as aprecedent for imposing federalcontrols on research and educa¬tion as a condition ol financialaid.The council cannot accept the view that the University is a neu¬tral participant in the loan pro¬gram, merely making the federalloan funds available for thosestudents who do not object tosigning the affidavit. We considerthat the University, if it shouldcontinue to accept loan funds fordistribution, would appear to begiving approval of the conditionson which the funds are madeavailable. We realize that theUniversity, having undertakencommitments to finance studentsthrough loans for the currentacademic year, must honor thosecommitments.We urge that the University ofChicago participate in every ap¬propriate way to secure repeal ofthe requirement during the pres¬ent session of Congress.Should the repeal unhappilyfail, we see no course of actionhonorably open to the University,except to withdraw from the loanprogram at the end of the cur¬rent academic year, and we **recommend.► Hold open hearing on SGThe complaints about the present structure of Student Government as well as proposalsn new type of setup in the legislative system will be aired in an open hearing tomorrowin the Ida Noyes library from 1-5 pm.‘ problems currently confronting SG are ones which point to the dilemma of last Spring’sgeneral election.

Signededitorial material represents the Individual opinions of the authors.Express both satisfaction andobjection in Trustees’ actionThe Board of Trustees yesterday voted its objec¬tions to the National Defense Education act. Wewill withdraw unless the “objectionable” passagesare removed during this congressional year. Wehave mixed feelings towards the action and posi¬tion of the board. *We are in full sympathy with their objection tothe affidavit of denial. The Maroon has objectedto this editorially ever since the NDEA was firstpassed. We understand why the Trustees did notwant to take up the question of the loyalty oath,which is also a part of the bill. They felt that therewould be some real chance of talking Congress intoremoving the affidavit, no chance of removing theoath. Coupling the two together would only hurtchances of getting rid of the affidavit. This beingthe case we will concede to their point of view.We by no means approve of this loyalty oath.But we object strongly to the complacent andsanctimonious approval of this oath as voiced bythe Board of Trustees. We take particular objec¬ tion to the position of Glenn Lloyd, chairman ofthe board. Neither the Board nor Lloyd expressesthe view of this campus’ faculty or student bodyby implying that any normal American would bemore than happy to sign the NDEA’s oath of alle¬giance. There was not sufficient time between thetrustees’ action and our deadline to probe the atti¬tude of the Trustee board any more deeply. Wesincerely hope that Lloyd’s statement does notreflect the attitude of the Board of Trustees.In the meantime, we, as students, can now devoteour attention to means of affecting the removalof the affidavit from the bill, for the removal ofChicago from the act is not enough. We can takeup such questions as the oaths and affidavits con¬nected with the National Science foundation fel¬lowships, with University administered govern¬ment research contracts, and soon enough, withthe loyalty oath provisions of the National DefenseEducation act.Grad students’ conduct inSG meeting disgusting .A group of graduate mem¬bers of student government,reportedly feeling that under¬graduates are young and fool¬ish, and that student govern¬ment is a prime manifestation©f this folly, are conducting acampaign from within more sillyand much more destructive than©verything they condemn.Their tactics are dilatory, theiractions obstructionists; their pur¬pose apparently is amusement atthe expense of the governmentand all its actions.These students, are JamesChase and Mair Benkoil of socialsciences, Bruce Bromberg andWilliam Sadd of the Law school,Ed Davis and Hillel Gershensonof physical sciences, Mark Hofferof the Medical school and RobertRiegle of humanities.On two questions in particularthese students have preventedefficient workings of the assem¬bly. It is not -their positions thatwe attack, but their methods ofupholding them. The two ques¬tions concern the restructuring ofstudent government itself, andUC’s withdrawal from the Na¬tional Student association (NSA).Tuesday evening Curtis Gans,National affairs vice-president ofNSA arrived on campus fromPhiladelphia. The main purposeof this trip was to address Stu¬dent Government, admittedly tospeak against UC’s withdrawalfrom NSA. Despite the fact thatbe was invited by SG, the NSA committee, and the SG’s execu¬tive council, an action on the partof this group of graduate stu¬dents, left Gans addressing anadjourned assembly, a body un¬able to deal with any other partsof the agenda.Even at the beginning of theassembly, Bromberg proposed amotion of adjournment order toenable the members to attendChicago’s basketball game withChicago Teacher’s college. Thegroup in question supported thismotion unanimously. Brombergand another member left beforethe real disturbance occurred.Although at the beginning ofthe session six of the graduatestudents who later left raised noobjection to an agenda includingGans speech, all those remainingat nine'o’clock objected violentlyto his speaking at all. When theirobjections were overruled, theycalled for a_quorum count, 5walked out, breaking the quorum,and the remaining member, MairBenkoil, called a second quorumcount resulting in adjournment.Gans spoke anyway, and thosewho stayed were much interestedin what he had to say.This act of walking out, as rudea one as we can imagine, wasjustified during the sesion simplyby statements that the offendingmembers did not want to beforced to hear Gans speak. In alater conversation with one ofthe students walking out a stu¬dent government member was in¬formed that the group had feltEditors-in-chiefNeol Johnston x Lance HaddixManaging editorOzzie ConklinBusiness Manager Advertising ManagerWilliam G.

They left a disabled as¬sembly unable to deal with mat¬ters such as CORSO policy on dis¬criminatory clauses in fraternityconstitutions, postponement of theNSA referendum for a week, topermit E&R to post ballot-boxscheduling, a new dormitorycross-walk, a bookstore trafficlight, etc.This walkout may well backfirein the end. Most students whohave heard what happened Tues¬day night have been quite justi¬fiably disgusted. Since that meet¬ing some twenty students haveapplied for vacant seats on theassembly in the hope of out-maneuvering this obstructionistgroup.The best solution would be forthose graduate students to revisetheir methods or resign from theassembly. They might assert thatthey are truly interested in t(iemanagement of student govern¬ment and concerned with its prob¬lems. They say they feel theirobjections to Gans speaking legi¬timate, as they feel their groundsfor other positions legitimate. Butto use rhetoric, quorum breaks,and name-calling to fight for prin¬ciples seems to make their posi¬tions more ludicrous than any¬thing they can attack.Blasts articleDear Sirs:It seems to me that your Janu¬ary 8, 1960 coverage of the mil-lion-dollar bequest of the lateStanley R. Pierce was not onlyinadequate but in very poor taste.A call to the alumni office couldhave furnished you with a littlemore positive and- pertinentbiographical information aboutPierce other than he was called“Fats” at U-High many years ago.Trivial and derogatory informa¬tion was consistently scatteredthroughout the article, such as,“Pierce didn’t like to answer thetelephone.”Surely an alumnus who chose tobe so generous to the Universitydeserves more positive and care¬ful coverage by the Maroon.Sincerely.M. Diane Cobb Onfemine(Author of “I Was a Tten-age Dwarf \ “The ManyLoves of Dobie Gillis”, etc.)HAIL TO THE DEAN!Today let us examine tliat much maligned, widely misunder¬stood, grossly overworked, wholly dedicated campus figure—the dean.The dean (from the Latin deancre—to expel) is not, as manythink, primarily a disciplinary officer. He is a counselor andguide, a haven and refuge for the troubled student. The dean(from the Greek dccinos—to skewer) is characterized chiefly bysympathy, wisdom, patience, forbearance, and a fondness forhomely pleasures like barn-raisings, gruel, spelldowns, andMarlboro Cigarettes. The dean (from the German dcangcmacht—to poop a party) is fond of Marlboros for the same reason thatall men of good will are fond of Marlboros—because Marlborois an honest cigarette. Those better makin’s are honestly better,honestly aged to the peak of perfection, honestly blended forthe best of all possible flavors. The filter honestly filters.Marlboro honestly comes in two different containers—a softpack which is honestly soft, and a flip-top box which honestlyflips. You too will flip when next you try an honest Marlboro,which, one honestly hopes, will be soon.But I digress. We were learning how a dean helps under¬graduates. To illustrate, let us take a typical case from the filesof Dean S of the University of Y (Oh, whybe so mysterious? The dean’s name is Sigafoos and the Univer¬sity is Yutah.)Wise, kindly Dean Sigafoos was visited one day by a fresh¬man named Walter Aguincourt who came to ask permission tomarry one Emma Blenheim, his dormitory laundress. To thedean the marriage seemed ill-advised, for Walter was only 18and Emma was 91. Walter agreed, but said he felt obligated togo through with it because Emma had invested her life savingsin a transparent rain hood to protect her from the mist atNiagara Falls where they planned to spend their honeymoon.What use, asked Walter, would the poor woman have for a rainhood in Yutah? The wise, kindly dean pondered briefly andcame up with an answer: let Walter punch holes in the back ofEmma’s steam iron; with steam billowing back at the old lady,she would find a rain hood very useful — possibly even essential.Whimpering with gratitude, Walter kissed the dean's PhiBeta Kappa key and hastened away to follow his advice which,it pleasures me to report, solved matters brilliantly.Today Emma is a happy woman—singing lustily, wearing herrain hood, eating soft-center chocolates, and ironing clothes—twice as happy, to be candid, than if she had married Walter.... And Walter? lie is happy too. Freed from his liaison withEmma, he married a girl much nearer his own age—AgnesYucca, 72. Walter is now the proud father—stepfather, to beperfectly accurate—of three fine healthy boys from Agnes’s firstmarriage—Everett, 38; Willem, 43; and Irving, 55—and whenWalter puts the boys in Eton collars and takes them for a strollin the park on Sunday afternoons, you may be sure there is nota dry eye in Yutah... . And Dean Sigafoos? He too is happy—happy to spend long, tiring days in his little office, giving counselwithout stint and without complaint, doing his bit to set theyoung, uncertain feet of his charges on the path to a brightertomorrow. © m»* simim.*We don't say that Marlboro is the dean of filter cigarettes,but it’s sure at the head of the class.

DeliveryT erry ’s1518 E. 63 rd Ml 3-4045Letter to the editorSG president Byerscensures boycotters NSA is students9 voiceTo the Editors:As president of the SG Assem¬bly, 1 find it somewhat difficultto censure, publicly and person¬ally. a group of duly elected rep¬resentatives to that Assembly.Nonetheless, I feel at this pointthat the tactic employed by thisgroup at the last meeting of theAssembly, on January 12, shouldbe brought to the attention of thecampus.To that percentage of thecampus which is aware of theexistence of SG, it is a well-known fact that within the As¬sembly there is a group of ap¬proximately nine students fromthe graduate schools and divisionswho deem it their responsibilityto block any business which thegovernment sees fit to undertake.One of the most appealing block¬ing tactics used by the group isthat of the quorum call. This plan(which has become something ofan art with this group) works asfollows: One member of thegroup calls for a quorum count.If it is found that quorum ispresent, all members of the groupbut one leave the meeting enmasse. The member remainingwill immediately call the quorum.Unfortunately, the absence of thegroup is enough to break quorum.The meeting automatically endsunder Roberts’ Rules of Order.One aspect of the situation,which I find most deplorable ist h e fact that in all Assemblymeetings to date we have had todepend on the graduate group tomaintain our quorum. This de¬fect can and should be remediedimmediately. The party leadersmust exert their authority andsee to it that their representa¬tives are present at meetings. It’sa simple choice: either maintainthe quorum without the graduate group or let them make fools ofthe rest of the Assembly.I would like to explain the sit¬uation out of which arose thedilatory action of the group onlast Tuesday night. As the Ma¬roon is aware, a referendum isbeing held on January 22 regard¬ing UC’s membership in the Na¬tional Student association. Everymember of the graduate groupwas an ardent supporter of thepresentation of this referendum.Most of the members have beenheard in public to state a pointof view directly against UC’s con¬tinued membership in NSA. Sup¬posedly, this group is, in someway, interested in the functionof NSA and in the role which UCplays within the Association.However, it was at the momentof the introduction of CurtisGans, National Affairs Vice-presi¬dent of NSA, that the group feltit necessary to pull out. Mr. Ganscame to campus from Philadel¬phia for the specific purpose ofaddressing the Assembly and ed¬ucating the members who haddoubts concerning the value ofUC's participation in NSA. Yetit was precisely these memberswho chose to withdraw beforehearing one word from Mr. Gans.At this point, I begin to suspecttheir motives, and that’s puttingit pretty mildly. One can hardlyrespect the position they havetaken. But then I’m quite surethat they are not seeking the re¬spect of anyone, least of all thatof the president of the Assembly.They are playing a game withinthe structure of the government.They will continue to do so untilthe parties react with the kindof responsibility that is to be ex¬pected of them.Maureen Byers, PresidentStudent Government To the editors of the Maroonand the study body:On January 22nd UC willdecide in a referendum wheth¬er or not we shall retain ourmembership in NSA. This isa crucial question and should notbe ignored by the student body.UC is renowned for its politicalawareness as well as its academicexcellence and has never been con¬sidered a place where importantissues are ignored for superficialons.It is about time that our studentbody became aware of the respon¬sibilities that have been placedupon its shoulders. The responsi¬bilities of the world are ours andin a world such as ours we haveno right to shirk them. A student needs more than a textbook in or¬der to obtain an education; heneeds more than three good mealsa day and a clean bed in which tosleep; he needs a place in theworld. How is he to obtain this ifhe remains within the confines ofthings whose effect he only ex¬periences directly? There was atime when the students of ourcountry were crusaders; theycared about Fascism in othercountries; they had ideals; theylooked beyond the confines of anarrow world of parties and text¬books; they related to the world.What has happened since then?Have we become so engrossed inthe comforts of our environmentthat we have forgotten the neces¬sity to reain our rights and fulfillour obligations to the world com-ISL considers issuesThis tvas a letter received by usshortly before our publicationdeadline. Although its tone andnature are not normal to this col¬umn, we do feel it is a legitimatestatement of opinion and print itas a letter to the editor. TheMaroon takes no position at thistime on the ideas expressed inthis letter. We would welcomesimilar statements from SRP orany other campus political party.All letters over 250 words are sub¬ject to editing.Dear Sirs:In most discussions of cam¬pus politics ISL is dismissedas the “conservatives.’' YetISL was formed and won hugemajorities in Student Govern¬ment when this campus had apolitical atmosphere much moreintensely liberal than now. This isnot meant as an argument thatISL stands for “liberal princi¬ples," but rather an attempt toclarify that ISL is not based upona particular political philosophy.YPSL asks no-strings aidSirs:The recent debate over the Na¬tional Defense Education act's dis¬claimer and loyalty affidavits hasdemonstrated that at least someAmerican students and universi¬ties remain willing to raise theirvoices in protest when importantinterests are in the balance.Yet the extent to which a pro¬test has been raised, i.e., to theoath and affidavit provisions ofthe Statute, unfortunately doesnot meet the more subtle and un¬doubtedly more damaging en¬croachments upon the “higherlearning in America” which char¬acterize the NDEA.The act contains a long pream¬ble setting forth its purposes,which, briefly summarized, de¬clares, that given the present in¬ternational situation and the con¬comitant need for national de¬fense it is urgent that educationbe given a high priority, sincepersonnel qualified in certain tech¬niques and skills are essential tothe national defense effort. It isneither by accident nor subter¬fuge that the Bill was titled theNational Defense Education act.That the purpose of the Statutewas that of fulfilling political andmilitary expediency is also demon¬strated clearly by the loan provi¬sions contained therein. Prioritiesare set up which require thatmoney be loaned first to studentsin the physical sciences, modernlanguages and teaching. The hu¬manities, classical languages, his¬tory and the social sciences arenowhere mentioned and it is as¬sumed that students in these “sec¬ond class” disciplines must be sat¬ isfied with the leftovers, if any,which have not been devoured bythe devotees of the more usefularts.Such Congressional value judg¬ments concerning the importanceof certain fields of concentrationas opposed to others are part andparcel of a gradual governmentalintrusion into the campus whichhas resulted in increased govern¬mental regimentation at the ex¬pense of both academic freedomand purpose. ROTC units on cam¬puses, inpreased prerogatives inthe US Commissioner of Educa¬tion, as well as large governmentsubsidies and contracts haveserved as inroads through whichlarge segments of the universitycommunity have been subjectedto loyalty investigations, and theaims and goals of higher educa¬tion have gradually been altered.A few universities have resistedthe lucrative seduction by govern¬ment, but most, pressed by heavyfinancial difficulties have enteredUncle Sam’s seraglio.The ideals which the American university must pursue are thoseof individuality, creativity, inde¬pendence of thought and the freeinterplay of ideas, respected andsought after for their own sakeand the sake of cultural and hu¬man advancement. To allow theseideals to perish as the universityis turned into a “Giant Laborato¬ry” of government and the train¬ing ground for the instrumentalskills desired by the militaryWould be catastrophic.Federal aid is of great impor¬tance for higher education espe¬cially if it is to meet the challengeof greatly increased enrollmentsduring the next decade. But un¬less such aid is granted withoutstrings, ulterior motives, oaths,affidavits, and priorities to gov¬ernmental^ favored fields andideas it will be useless, for thenhigher education will have becomeeducation for conformity.Executive Committee,UC Chapter of theYoung Peoples SocialistLeague The basis of ISL is: careful con¬sideration of all issues in an at¬tempt to find the consensus of allintelligent individual considera¬tions — whatever the viewpoint,and subsequent purposeful actionbased upon that consensus. Some,notably the opposition party, havesaid that this process avoids act¬ing upon principles and is indica¬tive of a fear of facing the issues.They forget, or cannot under¬stand, that principles are not di¬vorced from reality. Principles arenot simple formulas that dropfrom the sky to solve man’s prob¬lems. To serv6 the end for whichthey are formulated — a futurebetter than the present — princi¬ples must be generally acceptedand coupled with actions sup¬ported by many. Yelling at some¬one: “you terrible conservative"or “you terrible liberal" does notconvince them that their view¬point is wrong or misinformed.Members of the ISL caucus orgovernment delegation are notexpected to think, talk, or voteon a “party line.” They are sim¬ply expected to discuss the issuesamong themselves and with oth¬ers, evaluate the resolutions pro¬posed on the issues, and expressfor the benefit of others theirown ideas and stands. Thismethod of facing the problems ofthe student body does not takepreconceived notions about lib¬eralism and conservatism, but itdoes take time:(1) For non government mem¬bers, each week: a Sunday eve¬ning caucus with a two-hour SGcommittee meeting optional onsome other evening.(2) For members of the Assem¬bly, both of the above are neces¬sary plus Tuesday evening As¬sembly meetings every otherweek.This is a plea to everyone totry this method of representingthemselves and the campus —joining ISL. Even a fraction ofthe numerical support we re¬ceived at the polls would be suf¬ficient. However, without thattype of support: a little time fromeach of many people, not only is itimpossible for ISL to fulfill itscampaign platform, but SG itselfis impossible.A chance to start helping: Acaucus this Sunday at 7:30 in IdaNoyes hall library.Jim Thomason munity? Don’t we require somemeans for relating to the outsidoworld?NSA is the only medium todaythrough which we students canrelate to the world and to otherstudents. NSA is vital to us,through it we are something;something very much alive; some¬thing that can mitigate the plightof the student and the world. Yetthe main complaint about NSA isalways “What does NSA do forme?”In asking this question we neg¬lect the fact that NSA is ourvoice, it's our means of communi¬cating with the outside world; it issomething that would be disas¬trous for us to lose. We cannotever hope to survive as a separateentity from the world since we arean integral part of it. If we rejectNSA we are rejecting the obliga¬tions that are ours and ought tobe ours.The trouble with this country isthat Americans want material ex¬planations for everything. Thusthis campus wants to know whatNSA materially gives us for thefive hundred dollars we give ityearly, as if we were buying gro¬ceries at a store. This campuswants us to defend NSA on thesegrounds. If NSA gave only ma¬terial benefits, it would have noright to exist. How much can youpay for an idea?We blame NSA for not relatingto our campus. The absence of im¬plementation of program here atthe UC is deplorable. The faultdoes not lie in NSA, it lies in our¬selves, in our apathy and in ourrefusal to accept responsibilities.This lack of relating NSA pro¬gram to our campus is due to adeficiency of effective leadershipand of a sense of purpose here,not in NSA. NSA can be meaning¬ful to us if we are willing to makeit so. Let us find the fault withinourselves and not shift the blameto NSA.Before we go to the polls onJanuary 22nd it is-necessary forus to realize our role in the world.If we cannot accept the responsi¬bilities of the world and we do notwant to relate to the world andthe student community, let uswithdraw from NSA. If we arenot wililng to look beyond our im¬mediate present, let us withdrawfrom NSA and be ashamed thatwe cannot accept the challenge ofwhat it means to be a student anda human being.Gail ParadiseMODEL CAMERAWholesaleCatalogue Prices onCameras, Projectors, Recorders1342 E. 55th HY 3-9259 Mortgage InsuranceEducational InsuranceConnecticut Mutual LifeJoseph H.

Although h i sstatement has been commentedupon earlier and elsewhere, fair-minded Professor Hauser willwant readers of the Maroon toknow some of the objections tothe position he has taken.Professor Hauser rightly distin¬guishes the factual from the valu-ational, or moral, aspects of popu¬lation growth and control.

In a matter as serious andpractical as this, moreover, it isperhaps wise to do more than ac¬cept a greatly expanded futurepopulation as a remote conditionalpossibility. The safer part is to ac¬cept the present rate of world pop¬ulation growth as constituting agenuine problem, even thoughlong-range population projectionshave in the past generally provedwrong. As John XXIII recently re¬marked, even today there is a se¬rious problem of hunger for agreat part of humanity.Disagrees with HauserI must take issue with Profes¬sor Hauser when he discusses themoral aspects of the problem. If Iunderstand him correctly, Profes¬sor Hauser feels that the CatholicChurch should not take a firmpublic position on moral matterswhenever this position need not betaken within other value systems.The Church is wrong, he believes,in condemning various methods ofbirth control currently consideredlicit by other Christians, or neces¬sary by some population planners.I am sure Professor Hauser isnot taking a restrictive view onfreedom of opinion and speech.There is question here of a world¬wide religious organization, oneof whose genuine concerns is thegood life for all, and there is noquestion but that the Churchmust voice its conscientious view.(I might note, in passing, thatthe Episcopal Church, exercisingthis prerogative, went on publicrecord a few days ago as con¬demning abortion and infanti¬cide.)The Catholic evaluation of con¬traception depends on an analysisas technical and complex in itsown line of moral science as mustbe the calculations of demograph¬ers in theirs. No abbreviated state¬ment of either matter seems verysatisfactory. One can say, how¬ever, that the Catholic position oncontraception rests ultimately onthe principle that the psychoso-I AMERICAN EXPRESS TRAVEL SERVICE66 Broadway, New York 6, N.

If so, some solu¬tion other than contraceptionmust be found for the problemcreated by population increase,not just because a contraceptionprogram may be politically andculturally unwise, but because itis really an immoral solution. Ihave never seen a single Cath¬olic moral theologian who was inthe least ambiguous on this point,the practice of some Catholics,discovered in surveys, notwith¬standing.Bishops speakRecently the Catholic bishops inthe United States spoke outa g a inst what they felt werealarmist and pessimistic respons¬es to the problem of over-popula¬tion, mass-magazine populariza¬tions which too quickly saw inthe population problem a newrationale for contraception. Ofcourse the bishops have no dis¬regard for the complexity of theunderlying problem itself. Tosome it may seem ironical thatthe Catholic bishops have opti¬mistic faith in technology, scienceand economic development (inview of their alleged opposition toCopernican and Darwinian sci¬ence), but such faith they dohave: that human industry, inter¬national community and inven¬tiveness, always stimulated byman’s necessity, can create op¬portunities for the good life forall. They also have faith in God’sProvidence. John XXIII deploredcertain methods of limiting child¬birth. He surely had abortion inmind (1,000,000 in Japan lastyear); contraception, too, can beincluded among those methods hetermed immoral and fatalistic(not exactly, do I think, “death¬dealing” as the N. Y. Times trans¬lation has it).I take Professor Hauser’s de¬mography very seriously.

Further, if I may draw anobvious conclusion from his re¬mark, it seems than any standtaken on principle by a con¬scientious group can be obviatedby anyone who claims to speakin the name of “world interest.”This “world interest” of whichhe speaks naturally begins to in¬terest me. He implicity assumesthat some authority exists whichknows so surely what “world in¬terest” is that it can dismiss theCatholic position as theologicalmumbo-jumbo. This authority isevidently “the facts.” The Cath¬olic Church takes a stand onvalues which Mr. Hauser believesto contradict “the facts.” so withCavalier confidence he relegatesthe Medieval Catholic position tolimbo.His facts are based on sta¬tistical projections, and I shouldthink one would hesitate beforedismissing strong philosophy aland theological conclusions abouthuman nature on such tenuousevidence. I am inclined to givegreater credence to argumentsbased on strong philosophic argu¬ments than to moral conclusionsdrawn from statistics. And es¬pecially would I follow this rulein a problem such as the popula¬tion increase in which previousevidence based on statistics havebeen egregiously wrong. It isevident that the Catholic Churchhas admitted that population in¬crease Is now a problem, but itproclaims that no solution canbe ultimately effective unlessbased on proper values and itthen proposes what these valuesare. For Mr. Hauser, this is ap¬parently an occasion for indig¬nant scorn. It seems to me a validapproach, enhanced by the ridicu¬lous failures of previous statisti¬cal “facts” about population in¬crease.Mr. Hauser says the CatholicChurch tends “to obscure thefacts of the case in zeal to pre¬sent and defent its value stand.”This is a peculiarly crude remark.A value stand is simply that astand on values, and is not af¬fected one way or the other bystatistical facts. Frets havingno value in themselves, are mean¬ingful only when incorporated ina system. If he believes the Cath¬olic Church obscures the “facts”in making a stand on values, itis only because he hrs made hisown pattern out of the “facts,”much as Voltaire and Newtonmade a clock-universe out of their“facts,” which have been dis¬carded.Mrr Hauser can’t dismiss theCatholic stand by begging thequestion. The question is: Arethe values it proclaims valid, anddo they prohibit art’ficial birthcontrol? He can’t blame thischurch for taking a firm standon what it believes is a moralproblem. Moral strength is lostin gradual concess'ons to ex¬pediency. The stand that churchtakes is admirable, especially inthe face of people who don’t evenbother to find out what it is talk¬ing about before roundly con¬demning it.Sincerely,Bob GhelardiDr. N. J.

There are many areas wherethe voice of students is being so¬licited and many more where itshould be heard; NSA, as theforum of student opinion, offersindividual campuses the oppor¬tunity to make their voices moreeffective. A past president of theNSA testified before Congress onbehalf of federal aid to education.The executive vice president pre¬sented the organization’s positionvis a vis the loyalty oath and thedisclaimer affidavit of the Na¬tional Defense Education act be¬fore a House subcommittee.NSA is currently studying theproblem of academic freedom, anda report is forthcoming that willreceive the attention of educatorsthroughout the country. It hasorganized an annual SouthernStudent Human Relations sem¬inar, in which students, Negroand white, meet to discuss theproblems that underlie the con¬flicts of segregation and integra¬tion. In these and many otherareas, NSA serves as the marketplace for student opinion on mat¬ters of vital concern to all stu¬dents, and, more important, as the instrument through whichthis student voice can be trans¬lated into plans for action.. One of the major argumentsoffered in favor of withdrawal isthat we at the UC are unique.After all, Harvard felt its prob¬lems were unique enough to war¬rant withdrawal from the forumof the NSA. However, they havereconsidered, and will rejoin thegroup. And although our prob¬lems are not, God forbid, thesame as Harvard’s — for then wewouldn’t be unique—we are alikein that we don’t want NSA tosolve them. These people arguethat, unlike St. John’s of Brook¬lyn, UC faces no problem of ac¬ademic freedom, that unlike theUniversity of Alabama, UC facesno problem of discrimination, andthat unlike any state university,UC faces no threat of govern¬mental interference.May I remind these “it-can’t-happen-here-niks” that it has al¬ready happened. Was not lastyear’s suppression of the ChicagoReview an infringement of aca¬demic freedom? Do not the presence of a University-run dis¬criminatory housing file and theadmission of no more than twoNegroes to our Medical school inits entire history indicate that wetoo share the problems of dis¬crimination? Do not the loyaltyoath and the disclaimer affidavit(to say nothing of the Congres¬sional committees that have in¬vestigated and smeared the Uni¬versity) indicate a problem ofgovernmental tampering with theeducational process? And don’twe, of necessity, share a concernover the question of continuednuclear testing, an issue that hasreceived increasing attention inNSA? The education we are re¬ceiving is not an education foreccentrics or for isolates.A corollary to the “unique¬ness” argument is the questionof “what-do-we-get-out-of-belong¬ing?”, the implication being thatalthough other schools may de¬rive benefits from their member¬ship in NSA, we have very littleto gain. First, I should mentionfor those who demand concreteservices, the NSA sponsors andco-ordinates travel programs, pub- would disappear. Withdrawal onthis ground would be analogousto the forsaking of ones’ citizen¬ship because one had elected apoor senator.But the crucial point has yetto be made, for I feel that thereal issue has nothing whatsoeverto do with the ledger of benefitsderived versus expenses encoun¬tered. The strongest reason forour continued membership inNSA is that this is our responsi¬bility; that if we are in any wayunique, it is in the fact that NSAhas often looked to the UC forleadership and that we have beenable to provide it. UC delegationshave been instrumental in thedrafting of about one-sixth of thebasic policy declarations of theorganization. In the last threeyears; we have contributed twoextensive reports (one on H-Bomb testing and fallout and theother on the need for Federal aidto education), which served asstimuli and resource materialsfor the drafting of two of themost important resolutions in re¬cent years. We have been theGadfly of the organization, andBirth control unnatural?The two major topics of idleconversation at the Universitythis year seem to be evolution andbirth control. Since the personswho talk about one usually talkabout the other, it is reasonable tosuggest that they may be in someway related. I believe that theyare related but that this relation¬ship has not been made explicit.Evolution is held to be a naturalprocess, while human modifica¬tions of natural activities are heldto be in some way unnatural or,perhaps, supernatural.Evolution is usually consideredto proceed in the direction of in¬creased complexity or adaptabil¬ity, and this is supposed to besomehow better than decreasedcomplexity. A somewhat surpris¬ing conclusion when one considersthat tiie acknowledged aim of sci¬entific investigation is simplifica¬tion. In any case, while man iscertainly a more complex organ¬ism than his simian forebearerslie Is certainly a less well adaptedbiological organism. Just as lielias had to rely on his wits tosurvive until now, it is true thatlie will have to rely on his wits tosurvive in that future. Not thatthere is much prospect that hewill survive. Man is presentlycapable of destroying himself and the rest of life through uncon¬trolled nuclear radiation or biolog¬ical agents.The increasing simplification ofthe natural world which we owethe natural sciences has made thevarious techniques of mass de¬struction available to more andmore people. For example, whileit is unlikely that anyone in theUniversity community has theknowledge and equipment to buildand detonate an atomic bomb,most students who have had theelementary chemistry sequenceare capable of breeding a cultureof Bubonic plague. Consideringthe emotional stability of UC stu¬dents, is it likely that we will haveto wait long before some well-meaning young anarchist puts anend to human life and Hyde Park-Ken wood renovation?Now that the problem of birthcontrol is seen to be merely aca¬demic we are justified in bringingout some further consequences ofthe present state of affairs—con¬sequences which have been rarelymentioned in the impressive sym¬posia we have been reading about.A crucial point is not how manybreed but who breeds. Intelligentpeople breed very little, or theydon’t breed at all. They practicedelayed marriage and use contra¬ ceptives because they can’t bebothered with little children. Soonthey will be taking contraceptivepills. On the other hand, the dregsof society breed like rabbits. Thisis as much true in Chicago as inIndia. All this can mean is theeventual intellectual and moraldegeneration of the human race.God apparently gathers up hisown whether they be individualsor whole species.I wish to conclude by discussingGod. Whether God exists in anyreal sense is a question whichreaches bdyond the limits of ex¬perience. That he exists as apsychic fact is a matter of ex¬perience. The psychic fact of Godcannot be eradicated. When youkill him off he turns up as some¬thing else. When Neitzsche killedoff God, he himself became God.“Take care not to spit against thewind” (note the concept of windand spirit as pneuma in the writ¬ings of Philo). When the Germanskilled off the God of the Christ¬ians, they merely raised Wotenfrom his slumber.Now, If there is any value Inpeople believing in God, lie mustbe made believable. This, in thelanguage of Madison avenue,means bringing God up to date.Whether this is possible I ean'tsay, but if it is possible it meansallowing man to think that he ex¬presses God’s will in his actions.This means that man should al¬ways choose a reasonable eourseof action in matters of secularlife, including birth control. Itmeans that he has a perfect rightto sterilize his fellow creatureswithout their approval if he deemsit necessary, and to breed themRabbi states view oninterfaith cooperation“Implied in interfaith,” said Rabbi Maurice Pekarsky, headof Hillel Foundation, “is the recognition that whatever ourdefinition of God, or the sources of religious truth, there are ^areas of common interest and concern in which cooperative like cattte/if it semes at ail de^action on the part of religious sirabie.groups is desirable and possible.” fives.

Third, and most im¬portant, as mentioned above, theNSA provides all member studentbodies the opportunity to expresstheir opinions and to trade ideas,through their elected representa¬tives, on any and all issues, andto effectively implement theseideas. This last “benefit” has notbeen received by most studentsat the UC but we have largelyourselves to blame. We have elect¬ed delegates to the NSA w'ho havefailed to keep us informed of thehappenings of the Congresses andof the other activities of the or¬ganization. We cannot justly com¬plain that our views are not beingaccurately represented becausewe have chosen these representa¬tives ourselves; perhaps if welooked at the election in terms ofthe issues rather than in termsof popularity, this complaint even the people with whom weare most unpopular recognize theimportance of our role. In time,as graduates of a great univer¬sity, we will again be looked tofor leadership. Will we speak thenof withdrawal? If so, the Uni¬versity has wasted its time andmoney.And speaking of responsibility,of the University, and of money,I would like to conclude with aplea that the Administration rec¬ognize and assume its responsi¬bility in this situation and providethe finances necessary to send afull delegation to the National andRegional Congresses. UC is oneof the few (if not the only) mem¬ber schools that doesn’t cover theexpenses of its delegates. Thevarsity basketball team is flyingeast to play Army and Johns Hop¬kins, all expenses paid. To therescue, Mr. Chancellor, please,lest someone get the impressionthat the new College places ahigher premium on athletics thanon citizenship.PericlesWOtfWUflSSm\|TUST TM4IK[OF >40 it[mips ptrra*ITHEWSEUIESagainst sows■cosnencs anybodyO0W.& DOTWIT* XMSttFNMEAOF ttWUXXfcfcWoweviulHSfiTO KWMqoexsRi JHGUUHjF 1r#«x>RfSSI CtYtNGH!■■■** fWftfiOHDREY!\ HAWfccsmmeiOowtehbhuoHI OF KWQgM5.J WYUJHATREASON £A/IDYou Him FORCRtoMALLSKfWWIkXHM THE VOottHf*CHMtt DA,dot i turnedITPROGRESSIVE FAINT & HARDWARE CO.“Hyde Park's Most Complete Paint & Hardware Store"Wallpaper — Gifts — Tools Rented — Houseware*UC DiscountHY 3-3840-1 1154-58 E. 55tk *».> u i s* a n r\ La A B n A KlPresent ESP speech Hutchins reviews societyStephen I.

It willhouse 320 students and an un¬specified number of housing staffmembers- when it is completed.The building is costing 2.4 mil¬lion dollars to build. Its architectis Harry Reese. According to I.Robert Palm, architectural assist¬ant on the job, “Weather per¬mitting, we should have thebuilding completed sometime inAugust.”Eight floors of the new build¬ing will be devoted to studentrooms. The eight floors are sub¬divided into four ‘houses,’ eachhaving its own lounge, study andpractice rooms, and ’ house head.The building’s two elevators willstop on every other floor. “Bydoing this, we hope to preservea feeling of the unit house,” saysJ. Lee Jones, consulting architectfor the University. “Toward thisend we have also varied colorschemes in the halls of the dif¬ferent houses. What this newbuilding actually is, is four sepa¬rate units, which we have placed rooms are placed on the outeredge of the rectangle. In the in¬ner part of the rectangle will bethe lounges, study rooms, prac¬tice rooms, trash closets, and thechimney from the fire places.The four house heads in thenew dorm will have suites witha kitchen, living room, and bed¬room. *In addition to these heads,there will be a number of assist¬ants on each floor.On the roof of the buildingthere will be a penthouse, con¬sisting of one large room. Thisroom will be used as a musicroom, and will be equipped witha high fidelity sound system.The cost of living in the newdorm has not yet been determined.The Resident halls office is cur¬rently working on its budget, androom prices should be availablewithin a month or six weeks. Theexact type of furnishings has notyet been decided, although it isthought that each room will beequipped with two beds, twodesks, two chairs, and lamps andcurtains or blinds.“The interior of the buildingwill not be in the austere designof the new women’s dormitoriesby Saarinen,” says Eugene Mil¬ler, assistant to the consulting grass. “The building will be builton a terrace,” said consultingarchitect Jones. The area to thewest of the building will be usedas a parking lot.The builders of the new dormhave devoted much attention toeffectively sound proofing therooms. “The new dorms shouldhave better sound insulation thanthe women’s dorms, because herewe have built the rooms’ walls ofsix inches of almost solid con¬crete, whereas in the women’sdorms they were made of fourinch concrete blocks. We believethat this is as good a sound sys¬tem as we can get,” said Jones.Of course, everything is notgoing perfectly in the construc¬tion job. Small hitches come upevery now and then. When askedW’here the main entrance to thebuilding was, one of the work¬men on the job answered, “Aw,I don’t know, this whole . . .place is goofed up.”Another problem is the namefor the new dorm. With what isnow called the new dormitorystill existing, is this addition tobe called the “Newest dorm” orthe "New New dorm,” or what.Maybe the name of the one ex¬isting now can be changed to“the Old New dorm.” <photo by Bei M 11The single lower shown above will stand alone for severalyears. Now under construction on the corner of 55th andUniversity the dorm may be open to men next fall.Senator Benton speaks“Benton: the business beatnik” is the term used by the Honorable William Benton, ex-senator and a trustee of UC, to characterize himself during his appearance on campusWednesday night.Benton was chosen as the first speaker in a new discussion series on “Dialogues in Liv¬ing.” Alan Simpson, dean of the College, introduced Benton as one who has “the Midas touchof a self-made man.” Simpson told the student audience, “If you have any interesl in— and in these austere : —Pictured above is the architect's conception of the newmen's dormitory.on top of one another,” Jonescontinued.Each house in the building willhave, in addition to the study andpractice rooms, a large studentlounge. These lounges are two•tories high, with a spiral stair¬case running from the first floorto the second floor of the lounge.Each lounge will have a naturalwood fireplace.The main entrance to the dorm¬itory, which is located at thecorner of 55th street and Universi¬ty avenue, is on the south side ofthe building, in back of the Fieldhouse. As the student enters thedorm, he comes into the admin¬istrative area. This area will con¬tain students’ mail boxes and theoffices of the dormitory’s admin¬istrators.Half a flight down from theadministrative area is the recre¬ation center of the building. Thisarea will contain a snack bar forbetween 50 and 60 students and anarea for ping pong and billiards.The first floor of the buildingIs to be used as the dining room.Jutting out from the first flooris a terrace, which will run al¬most half way around the build¬ing. The terrace will be coveredby a roof almost all the wayaround, with a small area beingopen. There will be stone benchesspaced periodically along theterrace.On the second floor of the newdormitory there will be a centralStudent lounge and four guestsuites. The lounge will occupymost of the floor.Student rooms start on the architect. "Stone will be mixedwith brick both on the outsideand on the inside. This will servethe twofold purpose of enablingthe building to blend more easilywith the surrounding neighbor¬hood than plain stone would, andmake it a little bit warmer thanit might otherwise be.”The area surrounding thebuilding will be landscaped with moneyhalls, I hesitate to suggest thatyou do — then Benton is the manto listen to.”In a kind of “This Is My Life”program. Benton related the ad¬vice given to him by Walgreen,owner of the drug store chain:“You know they tell you that allyou have to do to be a success iswork hard, save your money, andbe honest. I’ve never done any ofthese, so I’m a millionaire.”Benton said that the word “un¬conventional” best describes hiscareer. However, he pointed outthat this unconventionality didnot start until after his gradua¬tion from Yale, where, “I was soconventional that I even wantedto join a fraternity.” On graduating college, Bentonwas the only person in his class togo into the advertising business,which, he explained, “was not arespectable position at that time.”However, he continued, “becauseit was unconventional, it was agreat field for a boy of any abil¬ity.”At the age of 29, Benton wasearning $1,000 a week. However,he gave this up to start his ownagency, and by the time he wasthirty-five he was making a halfa million dollars a year. He gaveup this job to become a part-timevice-president of UC.Discussing mainly his businesscareer, Benton confessed that, “IfHillel begins new seriesThis quarter, the Hillel foundation, in addition to its Friday evening Fireside lectures, ispresenting another series called Sunday Evening Coffee hours and sponsored by the HillelGraduate group. The first four meetings of the Sunday evening series were planned as aunit and entitled The Jew in Christendom. Three lectures on three different portraits ofJews in Western literature will be followed by a panel discussion comprised of the speakers.Last Sunday, Allan L. Bloom, lecturer liberal arts, University College, gave his lectureShakespeare’s Merchant of ———onVenice.The second lecture, which willbe on Lessing’s Nathan der Weise,will be presented January 17th,at 8 pm (all of the Sunday eve¬ning Coffee hours will be held at8 pm). The speaker will be Thom¬as McDonald, lecturer in the lib¬eral arts, University College. Gott¬hold Lessing, the chief figure ofthe Enlightenment in Germany,wrote this poetic drama as a pleafor peaceful co-existence of re¬ligious faiths.The play takes place in Pales¬tine during a truce amid the Cru¬sades, and in the characters ofSaladin, Nathan, and a KnightTemplar, the Mohammedan, Ju¬daic, and Christian points of vieware represented and given voice. presented in connection with thegeneral topic.A new series will start on Feb¬ruary 7.

I don’t believe in part¬ners, brokers, or investment couilsellors — only in employees.”Gives ''sure-fire'' adviceBenton then continued to givehis “sure-fire advice” to studentsfor success in business. His adviceincluded four points:1. “Those of you wli o havesome ability and confidence inyourself, don’t join a big corpo¬ration. Now I’m not talking tomost of you, because you won’tamount to anything anyway.”2. “Stay out of business schools.You won’t learn anything in busi¬ness schools except how to be apersonnel manager at Sears andRoebuck.”3. “Allocate a considerable por¬tion of your time to politics andpublic affairs.”Brains are insufficient4. “Brains are not enough. Theyare the most overrated quality inyour society. Now I am not forbeauty and brawn as a substitute,but for character. Pick the fellowthat has the character, the onethat you can trust, the one thatalways has the same reactions tothe same stimuli. These are themen who get top positions in poli¬tics, in business, and in any andall walks of life.”During the following questionand answer session, Benton wasasked about the National Dcfo.nscEducation act, to which he replied: “I am for it. I paid a lotof money to get it there, so I’mglad to say that I’m for it.

Prince of Greece, the first Rus¬sian “atoms for peace” delegation,and a group of 40 delegates tothe Press Congress of the World.A gleaming “atomic torch”built at Argonne kindled a sym¬bolic flame to open the Pan-American Games in Chicago,August 27. The torch, designed,to represent an atom, was relayedfrom the US-Mexican border atLaredo, Texas, by a team of 3,000Boy Scouts. On the last lap of therelay a radioactive source was in¬serted into the small container ofthe torch. Radiation from thissource set off electronic impulsesto light the flame.Foss named associate directorDr. Martyn H. Foss has beenappointed associate director ofthe Particle Accelerator division.Dr. Foss has been associatedsince 1955 with the design of thezero gradient synchrotron (ZGS),a multi-billion volt “atomsmasher” now being built at theLaboratory by the Particle Ac¬celerator division.The ZGS is a type of particleaccelerator, or atom smasher,which fires very high energy“bullets” at nuclear targets. Thisenables scientists to take apartthe atom and explore the funda¬mental nature of matter andenergy. The machine will accel¬erate protons to an energy of 12.5billion electron volts.Dr. Foss — a 16-year veteranof the government’s atomicenergy program — heads a groupwhich has been designing the4,000 ton ZGS magnet. Arrangedin eight sections (octants) on theinside of a circular building 200feet in diameter, the magnet willbe the heart of the machine.Differs from othersThe ZGS differs from other ac¬celerators of a similar type (suchas the Brookhaven Cosmotronand Berkeley Bevatron) in havinga uniform magnetic field, insteadof one in which the strength ofthe field increases in a directionat right angles to the path of theparticles.Control and focusing of protonsis obtained by cutting the edgesof the magnets where protonsenter and leave so that the par¬ticles do not pass the edges atright angles to them.The advantage of this design over the more usual one is thatthe strength of the magnetic fieldcan be made much greater beforebecoming distorted in a seriousway by magnetic saturation ofthe iron of the magnet.This makes it possible to bondparticles of a given energy withmuch smaller and less expensivemagnets. Dr. Foss originated thisdesign. The fact that the magnethas a uniform field is the reasonfor the choice of the name “zerogradient synchrotron”.In operation, protons will lx*accelerated first to 800 kilovoltsby a standard high voltage sourceand then to 50 million electronvolts in a linear accelerator. Fromthere, they will be accelerated toan energy of about 12.5 billionelectron volts in the ZGS.Will travel 200,000 milesThis final high energy isachieved in about one second andis produced by the magnet, whichgives the protons a powerful“kick” at certain points in theirorbit. During this, one second,they will travel approximately200.000 miles through a small rec¬tangular aperture in the centerof the magnet.An Argonne national labora¬tory scientist is the editor of adefinitive volume on the effectsof low-level irradiation.The book contains reports pre¬sented at a symposium on low-level irradiation at the 1957American Association for the Ad¬vancement of Science meeting inIndianapolis, Indiana.

The Chicagoans bested bothCarroll College 52-42 Saturdaynight and Chicago Teachers Col¬lege 78-42 Tuesday in the field-house. It was again the Maroons'sturdy defense that allowed thetwo easy victories. Against Car-roll, the UC men jumped to earlyleads of 13-4 and 20-9 with adamping man-to-man defense andwent off the floor at halftimewith a 26-17 advantage. ForwardGary Pearson’s four buckets andthree free throws led the Maroonscoring at this point.The Carrollites hung on forabout the first five minutes ofthe second half when they trailedonly 33-25. But then the Chicagodefense put on the pressure androlled up ten straight points. Atone point, the spectators stood upand applauded the heads-up de¬fensive efforts of the Chicagoans.The starters finally piled up a4828 margin with only six min¬utes remaining and then the tiredreserves, who had earlier moppedTrinity college 61-29, came in tofinish the job against Carroll.Pearsons’ 19 points topped Chi¬cago, but “Gus” was assisted bynine points apiece from guardJoel Zemans and forward MitchWatkins, plus forward Gerry Tor-en’s eight markers.Tuesday against the Teachers,the Maroons started with a bangwith a 12-2 lead and kept pouringon the defensive pressure as theyheld the visitors to only 13 pointsin the entire first half. Mean¬while, the UCers had a funnel ontheir own hoop as they stuffed in48 tallies for a season’s high inone half. It was a combination ofhard-working defense and torridshooting by the Maroon fivesomeof Pearson, Toren, Watkins, Ze¬mans, and ball-hawking guardRay Strecker that provided forthe mammoth first half advan¬tage. Balanced scoring highlightedthe affair, as Pearson pushed in10, Toren had 11, and Watkins andZemans accounted for 12 apiece.The only retaliation from theTeachers was shifty guard Jack Neville who slipped in 11 mark¬ers.Maroon reserves took over inthe second half and the contestbecame more even. The UCersmanaged to retain their huge firsthalf lead but they did allow theTeachers to keep pace. Coach JoeSlampfs’ second stringers swishedthrough 30 points in their 20 min¬utes but they also surrendered 29taliles, 15 by the irksome Nevillewho drove and shot the US de¬fense to ribbons for a final totalof 26 points. Unfortunately, hismost prolific teammate had onlyfive points.Coach Ron Wangerin’s B-teamalso upheld the undefeated statusof University of Chicago basket¬ball in 1959-60 as they toppedRoosevelt University of Chicago71-57 before the varsity Teachersgame. This is now four in a rowfor the young Maroons. The UCmen built up a 35-18 halftime leadand once possessed a 71-49 marginbefore the final flurry by Roose¬velt pulled the total to a respect¬able showing. Forward Fred Paul-sell sieved through 13 basketsand two charity tosses in a hotshooting display, and Center GeneEricksen tapped in 15 points forsupporting honors. Williams washigh for Roosevelt with 16 points.Swimmers make good showingThe UC varsity swimming team,in its two most recent meets ofthe season, lost to the Universityof Wisconsin 64-39, then beat theUniversity of Wisconsin at Mil¬waukee 54-41.

' :*v «UT runs 'Song of Songsby Charlotte StendelThe Song of Songs byJean Giraudoux is a play inwhich Fate takes the lead,leaving Genius, Desire andAmbition in secondary roles.The controlling forces in thelives of the characters are total¬ly beyond them and they becomemere observers of their own des¬tinies.The president of France, amildly humorous modern versionof King Solomon, loses his mis¬tress, Florence, to a young clodwhom she loves “with the loveof someone else." Fate has de¬cided that she must marry theyoung man who entered her lifelike a meteor. “He’s stuck there.I haven’t been able to removehim,” she complains to the Presi¬dent. And later, “What is he like?Is he handsome?" The Presidentresponds quietly, without sur¬prise, “Haven’t you seen him?"She continues her dirge, “I caughtsight of him once on the boule¬vards. We ran full face into eachother. He was running very fast.He hurt me.” The President’s re¬ply is thematic, “He was comingfrom a long way away. They senthim off twenty years ago."The President is a natural loserat love, for he is a genius, andFate calls him to the leadershipof his country rather than to ahousehold. “The serpent of thehome never bit you," says Flor¬ence, “the panther on the stair¬case drew back his claws." ThePresident was never involvedenough in mere homemaking tohave been troubled by little home¬ly accidents. He finally realizesthat he has lost completely whenhe states, “I am the only man inEurope who can recognize con¬querors.” The “conqueror," ofcourse, is not the young man,Jerome, but the newly discovereddirection of Florence’s life and ofhis own.In ‘The Song of Songs," Gir-auddux makes an interesting useof the classical cast of charactersby using a “jewel spirit" for thegoddess of love, and for choruscharacters uses the cashier, wait¬er and manager of the cafe inwhich the play is set. For funalone there are a pair of Eumen-ide-like characters in the formof gypsies who invade the scenespouting glib nonsense and po¬tent portents.The cashier represents thepatient, knowing sort of middle- aged woman who has become anobserver of life rather than aparticipant in it, yet whose resig¬nation to Fate makes her a neces¬sary source oi strength in thelives of others. She already knowsby heart the painful lesson whichthe President is just beginningto learn.The waiter represents thatmeaner faction of society whichis dependent for leadership andcomfort upon the existence ofgreat men like the President.The Song of Songs is a con¬versation play. It contains littlemotion or action, and the principalsource of enjoyment is the lan¬guage and subtle farcical wit ofGiraudoux, whose ability to inter¬ject farce into a tragedy makes this play easy to watch and hear,but provokingly serious in retro¬spect.Otto Schlesinger, veteran UT’erwill play the President in thisproduction of “Song," with AnnFolke, of Love for Love fame,as Florence. Glenna Ross, lastquarter’s “wailing weeping grand¬mother of the brat ‘Pepel’" willtake the role of the cashier oppo¬site Mark Benney, who will lendhis subtle, funny-man abilities tothe part of the waiter. Jerome willbe played by Aldrich Ames, anewcomer to UT. Charlie Gilmanwill be the manager. Dodie Datz,Lonnie Bovar, and Sherryl Keyeswill dance, prance, and somnam-bulate about the stage as thegypsies and the Jewel Spirit.'Four' to give Ibsen playRosmersholm, Henrik Ibsen’s drama, is the next produc¬tion for Company of the Four. The south side company ispresenting the play at 8 pm on February 5, 6, 7, 12, 13, and14 at John Woolman hall, 1174 E. 57th street.William Macdonald, director forRosmersholm, has assembled acast headed by Chris Dowell inthe role of John Rosmer andBrenda Handforth as RebekkaWest, the feminine lead. MissHandforth has been seen in thepast year in a number of produc¬tions for Stage '59, Company ofthe Four, and the Garden Players.Other cast members includeJoan Lewis, Robert Kasparian,who was seen last year in Stage'59’s No Exit; Otto Schlesinger,UC Court theater veteran; and bottom Rosmer’s conflict is com¬plicated by his relationship withRebekka West, a young womanof great intellect and force ofcharacter, who has been living atRosmersholm. The central con¬flict is illuminated by charactersdirectly representing the forcesof society between which Rosmerfinds himself caught.William MacDonald, the direc¬tor of Rosmersholm, is a formerdirector • producer at WTTW-TV,Alvin Passman, a Goodman train- who ow™ h[s ow« filn} «>m‘ed actor last seen in Company of Pany- °nf°fihe fo”nde/s °* C?m;the Four’s Thieves’ Carnival. ’ Pan^ °* th,e Four- Macdonald lastThe play itself is an example directed the company s produc Bill advertising "electrifying" movie which was lately atthe Hyde Park theatre.No respect for 'ProstituteThe Hyde Park theatre ran into some trouble when it de¬cided to bring a film “The Respectful Prostitute" (adaptedfrom the Sartre) to town last week.Rose Dunn, manager of the theatre explained that whenshe had ordered the film from theof Ibsen's ability to penetrate theconflicting force of society interms of richly complex charac¬ters.

That is: one workman, standing knee deep in a hole. Nowthere is nothing particularly comic about a man, per se, and certainly nothing amusing about the hole, but the combina¬tion of the^two was just too^much for my^sense of humor, benighted as that may be. Now I ask you, why do people lookso foolish^ ^ _ w? ^ wm—mm „w.. , m.-3y WilHOWabout in holes, they disgrace themselves completely. Ah well, they can't all be as agile and graceful as vultures, so I supposeI should have *so funny when they are standing in holes? Is it because they seem deformed in a rather ridiculous way, or because mostbeings are so awkward that when they don't have any legs, they look positively absurd? I think it's because they look so(more foolish than usual if you want a vulture's term for it). Besides, most people can't even walk right, and when theythey disgrace themselves completely.

Youare responsible for futureleadership, for protecting thefreedom of your own educa¬tion . . . You have to elevate thepicture, of the American student... to show that students canthink, can be responsible.“It is the purpose of NSA todevelop that kind of student. Youhave the responsibility to bringideas into action ... to show thekind of courage that UC studentshave shown in past NSA assem¬blies . . . You have that kind ofresponsibility and the responsibil¬ity to give other students respon¬sibility.”Thus Curtis Gans. National af¬fairs vice-president of the Nation¬al Student association spoke be¬fore an adjourned Student Govern¬ment last Tuesday evening. Origi¬nally scheduled to speak beforethe entire Assembly. Gans addres¬sed the majority of those presentat the meeting after several pro¬testing graduate members left,breaking the quorum by one mem¬ber.Speaking of the benefits of NSAto its members, Gans stated thatNSA is “representative.” “a fo¬rum for students to discuss stu¬dent problems,” “a place for stu¬dents to elect members to repre¬sent their opinions to Congress.”He said that NSA is affiliated withand operates in conjunction withthe major educational organiza¬tions in the country. Summarizinghis first statement of NSA’s ac¬tivities he stated that NSA “dealswith international issues, studentproblems, and educational issues.”NSA publishes magaxinesGans added that NSA publishesmagazines which contain muchvaluable information relevant toeducational and other problems,that it maintains Tiles availableto members concerning manyissues, educational and otherwise,that NSA sponsors such facilitiesas student flights at reduced rates,some thirty European tours, a na¬tional Student government infor¬mation center, holds workshopsand training sessions for collegenewspaper editors, provides an ex¬tensive press relations service onstudents in the internationalscene.Gans claimed, however, thatNSA should not be evaluatedmerely as a concrete block orgroup of concrete blocks of bene¬fits to its members. “In a societywhere we have a Beat Generation,a Lost Generation and everythingelse; I am someone who wants togo on record as being unhappy argues student's rig— and I’m here to make you un¬happy — to make you consciousof your responsibility to the worldat large.“The world today is at war,”Gans continued. Giving his in¬terpretation of the current worldsituation Gans added that theUnited States is not sensitive toproblems present in internationalaffairs, that the US “doesn’trealize its obligation to make in¬dividual fredom and democracywork. Take our even stated com¬mitment to the UN and see howthis squares with our sendingarms to Lebanon.”Paralleling what he considersto be errors in US foreign policy,Gans described the situation ofaffairs within the country itself.“If our external image is bad, ourinternal image is worse,” he con¬cluded, giving an example of arecent Mississippi lynching of aNegro, where no indictment wasreached against the offenders be¬cause the judge instructed thejury “To preserve our Southernway of life,” and examples ofcommunications departments try¬ing to control the tastes of Ameri¬can society.“The lack of concern that ex¬ists in America,” Gans stated inan attempt to demonstrate Ameri¬can apathy to important issues,and a frequent absence of dissent,“can be shown by the fact thatthe Beat Generation, a largely in¬articulate rebellion, is given sta¬ture in its own community.”Arguing that because of a needfor changes in the US attitudetoward the world situation and inthe internal image and reality inthe country itself, leadership andexpression of dissent are strong¬ly needed, Gans stated ‘NSAclaims to be the most represent¬ative voice of the union of stu¬dents.” That voice is essential,he concluded.“You are where you are —namely in education. If you’re go¬ing to create awareness, you’vegot to create an aware leader¬ship.”Commenting on student apathythroughout the US Gans depre¬cated the fact that less than 1500students may vote in the NSAreferendum to come up beforethe UC student body on Januray22nd. “There are two trends instudent governments in the coun¬try,” he added. The first of thesetrends he stated was toward non¬existence, the second toward tak¬ing the role of student govern¬ment more seriously in trying toeffect greater freedom and qual¬ity in education, and in trying torepresent student opinion to¬gether with making that opinion as effective as possible.Discussing current problems ineducation, Gans said, “The uni¬versities throughout the countryare often more concerned withkeeping up their own good name. . . than in keeping up standardsof academic excellence . . . Evenhere we fall into what I wouldcall the regurgitation method ...Education is first of all a stim¬ulus to thought.”30% of the gross national prod¬uct in Russia is spent on educa¬tion, stated Gans, while 2% of theUS “gnp" is spent on similar con¬cerns. A great many students areunable to go past high school be¬cause of a lack of funds, Gansclaimed, while the National De¬fense Education act has done littleto alleviate this problem.Concluding his speech with hisstatement of the responsibility ofthe UC student to NSA and itsfunction as the voice of theAmerican student, Gafts said,“The question is not whether ornot UC can afford to be a mem¬ber of NSA, but whether it canafford not to be.”Answering questions from thefloor, Gans explained that thebasic policy declarations of NSArequire a 2/3 vote in the nationalassembly. Regular resolutions re¬quire a simple majority. “All ourpolicies are dictated by the Na¬tional Student congress. Certainprograms are begun during theyear. These are often self-studyprograms, always of an uncontro-versial nature, usually begun be¬cause of the necessity of gettinggrants in the middle of the year.”Among the major activities ofthe NSA staff Gans stated, are serving to report to Congression¬al sub committees, urging studentaction, and getting students towrite letters attempting to pro¬mote action on the basic policiesof NSA.“We are at best a loose confed¬eration. We cannot coerce stu¬dent governments,” said Gans inanswer to another question from the floor asking whether or notNSA tries to hold the memberschools to its policy pronounce¬ments.“The major focus of NSA hasto be in education, “Gans said.“A secondary focus is makingstudents politically aware andacting as a voice of that politi¬cal awareness.”Curt Cans (above right), vice-president of NSA visitedthe UC campus to address Student Government and answerstudent questions about NSA at a reception held later.
