COVENANT STUDENTS
“Nixon’s in town!” This was the
watchword of many Covenanters as
Richard M. Nixon came to town last
Friday. 84% of the students had indi­
cated a preference for him in a “straw”
election held at the school a-week earlier.
Steve Kaufmann, David Irwin, and
Dave Judd each met Nixon at the airport
along with several hundred Chattanoogans.
Many other Covenant students attend­
ed his speech at the auditorium, with
some reaching the “Inner Sanctum” of
the auditorium proper, while others wait­
ed on the outside steps to listen to
Mr. Nixon’s speech.
Inside, several Covenant girls, includ­
ing Niki Oppert, Mary Simmons, and
Dedie Vail, served as Nixon girls. As for
the men, Dale McLane, Bob Moore, and
Dave Bryson were able to put in a good
word for Covenant as Mr. Nixon came up
the aisle.
MOVIE COMMITTEE RE
The faculty-student movie committee
reported in Student Council that the pur­
pose of the committee should not be
exclusively censorship, but rather, that
there should be “some educational factor
incorporated.” Scriptural principle was
stressed as the criterion for all judgments.
It was also mentioned that Dave Hawley
and Mac Gray are members of this branch
of the Discipline Committee.
The Blink has been approved to be
open Sunday nights, Jerry Moore an­
nounced, if it is supervised, kept clean,
and properly closed. Steve Sligh asked
Debbie Kemeny to manage this provision.
When she responded, “Are you serious?”
Sligh wasted no time in replying, “Does
night follow day?”

INDIA: A PROBLEM OF MISSIONS
All in all, it must be admitted that
Covenant students were in the vanguard
of the excitement, and it can well be said
that both Chattanooga and Covenant will
long remember Mr. Nixon’s visit.
TS TO STUDENT COUNCIL
Bill Foster reported that work scholar­
ships may be available for men wanting
tp work as security guards at night.
A note was sent to Buildings and
Grounds, asking for wood to be used in
the fireplaces.
Steve Sligh asked that a memo be sent
to Dave Hawley, since he was not present,
asking that the Cultural Committee spon­
sor forums on Sunday nights.
Student councils of Chattanooga high
schools will be invited to visit Covenant.
Bonds worth $40,000 have been re­
cently sold.
Bill Foster felt that it was “pretty
poor” that students having their own tele­
vision sets could not watch them in their
rooms or in the commons.
Students were transported around the
world in eighty minutes to the country
of India when Mr. and Mrs. Jon Zens
spoke at the Thursday meeting of the
Student Missionary Fellowship.
Mrs. Zens showed slides of her recent
trip to Bombay, India. Her pictures of
beautiful parks and temples, a snake
charmer, an Indian wedding, village huts,
beggars, and the monsoon season gave
students a little insight into the country.
Mr. Zens gave a talk on the religions of
India, in which he included the interesting
comment that the hippies have adopted
many of the Indian philosophies and cus­
toms. He showed how Hinduism is, for
the Indians, not just a religion but a way
of life.
The shortage of missionaries in India
was pointed out along with the fact that
the Indian Government is making it diffi­
cult for the missionaires to come into
the country.
In spite of these difficulties, Jon, who
is a Covenant senior, and his wife plan on
entering India as missionaries. They feel
that since the Lord has called them to go
to this country, He will also prepare a
way for them to go.
At the meeting were several other
people who have a personal interest in
India. These included Viswanathan, an
Indian from Bombay, in this country on a
student visa; Mr. Dick Strom, a World
Presbyterian Missionary on furlough from
Coonoor, South India, and his daughters,
Virginia and Priscilla; also John and
Ginny Taylor whose father does den­
tistry-missionary work in northern India.

FREE SOCIETY vs. GREAT SOCIETY
The choice that we have in this elec­
tion is between a free society and a great
society.
The great society comes under a multi­
tude of names, including the New Deal,
the New Frontier, the Welfare State.
They all mean the same thing. They all
have as their goal a society where there
is no poverty, crime, war, unemployment
and all the other things we deem as evils
of society. They feel that everyone has a
right to an income, to an education, to
medical aid, to old age security and to a
million other advantages. They feel that
every person has a right to share in the
wealth of the nation.
The idea of the free society, is how­
ever a completely different concept. It
holds that the freedom of the individual
is the most important concept.
It holds that men must be free to rise
from the ghetto through their own indus­
try, but there is no right that makes it
imperative that all rise from the ghetto.
Men must be free to get an education
if they have the means, but all men
should not necessarily be educated.
Men must be free to move from one
area to another, but the government has
no obligation to move them.
In essence everyone has the right to
the pursuit of happiness, but no one has
the right to determine for another what
happiness is, and the government has no
right to pay for the pursuit.
The goals of the great society are the
goals of the Johnson administration. They
are the goals of Hubert Humphrey.
They are the goals of Richard Nixon.
In Nixon’s speech here in Chattanooga,
he stated that the Democrats had had
their chance and had not moved signifi­
cantly towards these goals. The answer
according to him, was a change in leader­
ship. He maintained that we should give
him a chance to attain the great society.
I say it is time to change the goals. It
is time to move toward the free society.
It is time to let individuals decide their
lives for themselves.
I do not expect everyone to agree with
my position. I do, however, feel that all
should recognize this difference in posi­
tions. We must recognize that both
Humphrey and Nixon follow this line,
and that Mr. Wallace does not.
THE BAGPIPE
If you agree with the goals of the great
society, then you have a choice between
Nixon and Humphrey, and there is a dif­
ference in their method.
If. you agree with the goal of a free
society, then Mr. Wallace is the only can­
didate who espouses this as his goal.
Can Wallace win? No man can win
without votes. But more important, he
must have support to place his name in
front of the voters. He must have work­
ers and money.
A person can divorce his vote from his
support before the election. If one be­
lieves in the goals of George Wallace, he
should put his support behind him and
work for his election. If, however, on
election day one feels that his vote will
do more somewhere else, then he can
place it wherever he wishes. The pop­
ularity of the Wallace stand is constantly
rising. He has risen from 6% to 21% in
a few months. All this time his oppon­
ents have said that he has reached his
peak. He will go no further. They have
constantly said that the third party can’t
win. It can, and it will if the supporters
are there. And I believe they will be on
November 5th.

BELLOWS
OUR VIET-NAM NIGHTMARE
One of the major components of ver­
bal air pollution here at Covenant and
elsewhere is the result of fuzzy thinking
on the very perplexing subject of the
Vietnamese War. In this article, I wish to
set forth some thoughts which I feel are
painfully relevant, but which are, none­
theless, generally unknown or ignored.
At the center of this unthoughtful
thinking regarding Viet-Nam is a militar­
istic conception of foreign policy which
sees armed might as the most practical
solution to our problems abroad. To be
specific, it is thought by some that the
answer to the Viet-Nam conflict is simply
to go in and “mop ’em up.” Why, they
ask, can’t we just overpower and demolish
the enemy, thereby ensuring the freedom
of the Vietnamese people?
To examine this solution requires some
knowledge of the nature of guerrilla war­
fare. An insurgent or guerrilla war can be
defined as an- internal war whose goal is to
replace the existing political structure by
unconventional means. The guerrilla es­
pouses a new system consistent with the
aspirations of the populace. In fact,
guerrilla warfare will fail if it does not
have well-defined, well-articulated politi­
cal goals consonant with the goals of the
people. Mass support, which can be de­
fined as at least the passive sympathy of
the majority of the population, is essen­
tial to the success of an insurgent move­
ment.

THE LOSS OF LOSING
With such performances as were seen
by Covenant College students last Tues­
day and Saturday afternoons on the Dade
County Athletic Field, we are all faced
with a puzzling but enjoyable threat-the
threat and the possibility of success in
our athletic pursuits—the promises of win­
ning seasons not only in soccer, but in
basketball and baseball as well..
The concept of winning seasons poses
a threat to most of us, because we are
not quite sure how to handle such a thing
at a college in which losing implies tradi­
tion. For some 120 of our students, the
tradition has only been explained and not
experienced, thanks to Coach Bowman.
But for the rest, being skilled in the art of
losing, sporting events at the college have
become mere social gatherings where we
cheer, talk, and leave (if we attend at all).
Ken Wynn has paid us homage by
speaking in truth of a moral victory tak­
ing place as we matched St. Bernard Col­
lege. That victory was not necessarily
over St. Bernard, but over a prevailing,
and seemingly unshakable attitude within
our entire school. It cannot, however, be
determined as completely ours until the
end of the last inning of the last baseball
game of this year, when we are able to
look back on past corner kicks, jump
balls and stolen bases, with pride in our
teams and respect for ourselves as enthu­
siastic, positive students.

THE BAGPIPE
FRIEND OLNEY
By Bill Longacre
We have many fine new facility mem­
bers this year. Dr. Olney is one of these;
he has come here to .teach in the Biology
Department with Dr. Lothers.
Dr. Olney was born in Patterson, New
Jersey, but his family moved often; how­
ever, he considers home Central New
York, in the fingerlakes region. He re­
ceived his B.S. from John Brown Univer­
sity, his Th.M. from Dallas Theological
Seminary, and his M.S.:and Ph.D. from
the University of Delaware.
Despite teaching, Dr. Olney has found
time to do a considerable amount of re­
search, including detailed investigation
in histological technique, and the isolation
of soil carbohydrates and proteinaceous
substances, paper and thin-film chromotographic technology, plant growth inhib­
itors and accelerators, and isolation and
identification of plant-formed substances
which deform plant and animal embryos.
(While teaching at Gordon College, he
had a double garage at home equipped
with his research tools.) He has pub­
lished numerous articles on his findings.
He is a Science Faculty Fellow of the
National Science Foundation at DelaContinued from page 2
leaders of modern times, from Lawrence
of Arabia to Che Guevara, acknowledge
this fact. (Guevara, in fact, lost his life
because he ignored this most basic pre­
mise for revolution.) This mass support
reflects itself in that the people favor the
rebels with intelligence, and information
is ninety percent of the struggle in a
guerrilla operation.
Now, how do we relate all this to the
war in Viet-Nam?
Very simply, the problem is the ex­
isting government of South Viet-Nam, a
regime which is corrupt, rotten, and dis­
honest. (For a comprehensive examina­
tion of the rife corruption of the rulers,
see William J. Lederer’s Our Own Worst
Enemy.) The armed might of the United
States of America is preserving and sup­
porting this foul government in the face
of mass discontent, while the Viet Cong
are offering a dynamic, honest form of
leadership for the country. Admittedly,
ware, and belongs to several other learned
societies, including the American Society
of Plant Physiologists.
Currently, Dr. Olney is writing a book,
entitled Thoughts on Spirit. It is a defin­
itive, hypothetical devotional, raising
many questions and offering answers in
the form of hypotheses. Written in essaystyle, and “not meant to be doctrinal,
it is thoughts, hard, hard thinking.” The
book is aimed at the general reading pub­
lic, but it is especially suitable for col­
lege students who are searching for an­
swers to various spiritual questions.
When I asked Dr. Olney why he left
Gordon and chose to teach here at
Covenant, he emphatically answered, “I
wanted to get back to a four-year college
with small enough classes to be able to
confront students in live, face-to-face dia­
logue. In lecturing at Gordon in an empty
TV studio to numerous students in their
separate classrooms, there was no social,
intellectual, or spiritual contact with
them. Also, Gordon College now on a tri­
mester plan, puts more pressure on stu­
dents and teachers, stressing completion
of and graduation from college in two to
two and two-thirds years.
It is great to have “ Friend Olney” on
campus, and we respect him as scientist
and as teacher.
the Communists who dominate the Viet
Cong probably do not intend to honor all
their promises, but what can we expect
the peasant of the rice paddie to choose
when faced with such a decision? The
fact that the Viet Cong exist and are suc­
cessful is evidence that they have captured
the mass support of the populace. To
quote a master of revolutionary struggle,
Mao tse-Tung: “Because guerrilla warfare
basically derives from the masses and is
supported by them, it can neither exist
or flourish if it separates itself from their
sympathies and co-operation.” In effect,
then, the United States of America is
fighting against the self-determination of
the people of South Viet-Nam.
What, then, is the solution to our
present dilemma? A purely military con­
quest? I would counter this proposal
with a statement by Chalmers A. Johnson,

PIPINGS
Question: Do you feel that at Covenant
College, after one or two dates with a cer­
tain person, you are automatically and
all too quickly classified as that person’s
permanent partner? Is this a problem?
I f so, what is your solution?
The verbosity of the reaction of most
people to this question requires two
weeks’ devotion to it.
Ladies first!
Answers:
Linda Frost: “I’d say, yes, this is es­
pecially a problem for girls. I don’t think
there’s a solution because you can’t
change people; they’re too nosy and too
eager to ‘tag’ couples.”
Gail Umbreit: “Yes, I definitely do
think it is a serious problem. My only
solution, though somewhat unworkable,
would be that students should date
around more.”
Pam Meek: “I think it is more true of
freshmen than upperclassmen, because
upperclassmen already know each other
and have formed friendships. It remains,
however, a problem for all and it’s a
shame. If you’re friendly with everybody
and don’t spend the majority of your
time with any one person, you can avoid
this problem.”
Mary Lou Moore: “Covenant College
is unique in that it is situated all in one
building. In other colleges you don’t
usually see a person in chapel, in classes,
at all three meals, and in the Blink. Here
people are thrown together and there’s
a lack of privacy.”
Carolyn Wieldraayer: “Yes, I believe
this is a problem at Covenant. The one
solution I can think of is that more stu­
dents become involved in more ‘friendtype’ relationships with members of the
opposite sex, experience the deep mean­
ing of these relationships, and thus de­
fend others who are profitting likewise.”
Linda Mossbarger: “Yes, I do think
that this is a definite and serious problem
here at Covenant. I feel that the solution
will have to be left up to the individual,
with each student deciding on his own to
date a variety of people.”

COVENANT TOO TOUGH
FOR U.T. ORANGEMEN
Covenant proved too tough for the
Orangemen of Tennessee, a team that
compiled a 10 - 3 record last year. The
Scots whipped them 2 - 1 Tuesday at
Knoxville.
Covenant struck early with Greg Maffet
putting one in on a shot across the mid­
dle, which struck the far post and went in.
The second goal was scored by Dave
Stanton as both he and Steve Young
rushed the goalie and forced it past him.
The Big Orange scored in an easy shot
which barely eluded the fingers of Mac
Gray.
Though the Scot team has looked
better, they did put forth a team effort,
and credit should go to all the players for
their satisfying victory. The outstanding
players included Mac Gray, Pete Mollenkof, George Hopson, Gil Kinch, and
John Leddon.
The team is on the move! Let’s get
out and support them Friday night.

With the coming of the world series,
Covenant baseball fans are again caught
up in the spirit of sport’s most spectacu­
lar event. The Tiger and Cardinal dis­
ciples are lined up behind their teams
and are loudly directing their heroes’ ef­
forts from six feet in front of the tube.
The partisan forces will enjoy some spir­

if Chops and Sligh can be kept apart)
before the champion is decided.

IMTRAMURALS
The Seniors were again too much for
the ill-fated opposition. Displaying that
sterling defense which has become their
trademark and the bane of their hapless
foes, they rolled over the Freshmen B
team, 22-6.
The scoring opened with Bob Moore
dropping Dave Crawford in his own end
zone for a safety. Steve “Bart” Kaufmann
next hit Dave Judd for a touchdown,
making it 8-0 at halftime. In the secondhalf scoring, Kaufmann hit Moore for
another marker, making it 14-0, with the
point after good. Judd then intercepted
a pass and ran for a touchdown the full
length of the field, making it 22-0. In the
waning minutes of the game Craig Lins
ran back a punt on a fine return and
broke the Seniors’ scoreless streak to put
the game where it ended, at 22-6.
In other games the Juniors beat the
Sophomores 12-6 on the running of Joe
Zellner and John Reynolds. Doug Parkes
made a fine catch for a Sophomore touch­
down.
In the third game of the day the
Juniors rode to another victory on the

and the running and passing of Tim

this series features one of the most spec­
tacular pitching matchups in baseball his­
tory: Gibson vs. McLain. And it matches
two teams that made a shambles of their
respective pennant races. It looks to be
a series that will somewhat salvage what
has been a dismal baseball season.
From the point of view of the major­
ity of the mountain top “experts” who
were polled, the series will go seven games

the whole deal: Rise again, Dodgers. If

touchdown passes from Davis to Graham,

In the final game of the day the
Sophomores annihilated the Freshmen A

from Dave Bryson, two in which Bruce
Oakley was on the receiving end. Dave

THE ATHLETE
CROSS COUNTRY
This week written by Gil Kinch, leading scorer on the Scot soccer team
Soccer is the world’s most famous sport. Millions of people each year watch this
sport, and their enthusiasm for it is not matched by any other sport. In Latin America
soccer is the No. 1 sport. Every game is packed out. It is not unusual to have a crowd
of 80,000 watching a soccer game in these countries. In England this year millions of
people watched the World Cup soccer games in person and on television.
Why is it in America, where most people are sports enthusiasts, soccer is not en­
thusiastically received and attended? How come America is so apathetic towards soc­
cer? America is the only country in the world that I know of that has been apathetic
towards soccer. Many of the new professional soccer teams in America have had to
give up their franchises because of lack of support. The Detroit Cougars went five
million dollars in the red in two years and therefore cannot afford another team. The
Atlanta Chiefs, who just won the National Soccer Championship, may have to disband
for financial reasons. These are only two cases of the plight of professional soccer in
America.
The main reason for this lack of interest is that most Americans do not under­
stand the game of soccer. They do not know how to appreciate the skills of kicking,
dribbling, and passing the ball. They don’t know what is and isn’t good soccer.
In Costa Rica, soccer is the national sport, and it is very common to see a soccer
field in front of every Catholic church and playground. Kids there grow up with the
sport. It is not unusual to see kids playing soccer in the middle of the streets. They
love the sport, they understand it, and anyone who has the desire to put some effort
into it can play it.
I believe that if soccer is going to really take hold in the United States, we must
begin to educate people about the game so that they will learn to admire this sport,
just as they do baseball, football, and basketball. Soccer is not out to replace any
sport but should and must be added to the list of great American sports.
SCOTS SINKSEWANEE
In their convincing victory (3-1) over
Sewanee, the Scots showed another wellbalanced attack. The main difference be­
tween Saturday’s game and the one against St. Bernard was the fact that when
the ball was crossed in front of the goal,
there was someone standing there this
time to put it in. The team as a whole
played well with only two or three let­
downs during the game. With these ex­
ceptions the Scots carried the game to the
Tigers’ front step, and they could not
keep the gate shut.
The first Scot goal came 27 seconds
into the second quarter on a pictureplay by Gil Kinch. Dave Stanton got
the assist on the play. The Scots scored
again in the second quarter. Greg Maffet
set it up, and Gil Kinch put it smartly
into the net.
Covenant seemed to let down after
coasting to their 2-0 lead. Then “storm­
ing” John Leddon stirred things up. He
scored within seconds after the second
half started and then shortly after scored
again, only to have the play called back
because of an offsides penalty. Although
. Sewanee was down the entire game, they
never really gave up. They finally scored
late in the fourth period on very persis­
tent play by their forwards.
Saturday marked the first appearance
of our other goalie, Tim Belz. He had
two routine saves and a third that was just
out of this world. For his first game he
did pretty well.
The player and the play of the game
might as well be the same old story. The
play of the game came on a Sewanee pen­
alty kick. “The Man” Mac Gray saved it.
How he did it is a question they are still
asking at Sewanee. As for the player of
the game, if you were there you would
know that it was Mr. Gray. He played
every position on the field, it seemed.
Anyway, he was all over the field.' In
short, he cotild have been three men.

DROPS TO BRYAN
The Covenant cross country team drop­
ped their first meet to Bryan College Sat­
urday afternoon. Bryan had 18 points
and Covenant 42, the low score being the
winner in cross country.
The Scots gave a good effort and were
well-supported by the Covenant fans.
Each Covenant runner ran faster in the
meet than he did in the trial run. But
the team was up against a good, experi­
enced club.
Russ Karvonen of Bryan as expected
had the fastest time of the meet (15:22).
Bryan also took second place at 16:10.
Roy Fagan gave Covenant third place
with a time of 16:40.
The positions taken by Covenant were
Roy Fagan, third; Rodney Alexander,
eighth; Jim Peale, ninth; Peter Cross,
tenth; Jim Coad, twelfth; and Paul
Meiners, sixteenth.
Covenant will travel to Bryan this
Saturday for a meet with Bryan and
Sewanee.

Seasoned Covenant veterans have a
tremendous responsibility now both to
themselves and to those more privileged
students who have never been taught
that losing is to be expected. They must
first fight the tendency to observe seem­
ing trends in players, games, or seasons.
They must next fight the impulse to re­
gard all sporting events at Covenant Col­
lege as being already decided in outcome
and to absent themselves with the excuse
that such are a waste of time. Finally,
they must exercise restraint when the
temptation arises to instruct the “less in­
telligent” members of the Covenant soci­
ety as to the philosophy of losing.
If we as the students and the teams of
the school could be successful in com­
pleting such a task by accepting the
responsibility for it, then that moral vic­
tory is ours and more important than
that, the seemingly impossible undertak­
i n g of Coach Bowman in attempting to
root out this spirit of defeat could be
credited to him as a real victory.

a scholar of world politics: “To approach
the subject of guerrilla warfare as a purely
military doctrine is to court disaster. . . .
The most sophisticated military activities
against guerrillas may prove to be fruitless
if not pursued in conjunction with politi­
cal measures.” The incumbent regime
in South Viet-Nam will inevitably lose
this war unless its program is radically
changed to be more consistent with the
needs and aspirations of the populace.
My proposal would be to serve notice
on the leaders of South Viet-Nam that
unless they clean up their government,
they can no longer depend on U.S. sup­
port. The form of government is not
really our business, but we can demand
an honest administration. Viet Cong
guerrillas would soon start to lose the
sympathy of the people which they enjoy
in the face of the oppressive regime now
in control.
I will close with another quote from
Chalmers A. Johnson:
“By the time guerrilla warfare has
actually broken out, the conflict may al­
ready be lost to the defenders and require
a negotiated or stalemate solution. Thus
it would seem that prevention is the bet­
ter part of cure. The recognition of this
fact provides one further support for
those foreign policy measures undertaken
by Western governments that seek longrange solutions to endemic problems via
controlled social change. Moreover, an
understanding of the political basis of
guerrilla warfare should dictate against
Western governments’ further militarizing
certain conflicts by granting unrestricted
arms support for already discredited re­
gimes.”
