E d it o r 's D e s k
T h is w eek en d , L aw rentians A gainst Apartheid
For D ivestm ent is sp on sorin g several p resen tation s
and activities to support the anti-A partheid stru g ­
gle and to encourage Lawrence to divest. The resolve
of LAAFD and its ability to bring prom inent figures
like Prexy N esbitt to c a m p u s on behalf of the antiApartheid m ovem ent sp e a k s well for the group’s or­
gan ization and determ in ation to achieve its goals.
During the cou rse of the past two years, LAAFD h as
worked hard to provide inform ation to the cam p u s
about the A partheid issu e . In addition, the recent
form ation o f th e A dvisory C om m ittee on Sou th
African Issu es is a good indication of both LAAFD’s
effectiven ess a s a lobbying and pressure group and
the U n iversity’s w illin g n e ss to ad d ress both the
im m ediate co n cern of LAAFD--that Lawrencc d i­
vest co m p letely from S ou th African c o m p a n ie s—
an d o th e r i s s u e s in v o lv ed in S o u th A 'rican
A p arth eid .
But th is praise rings hollow in the ears of Ihe
uninform ed; the ultim ate c a u se for which Ij \AFI)
flgh ts--th e end of Apartheid in South Africa--is lost
on the p erson s who have never taken the time to try
to un d erstan d Apartheid and the cries w hich have
been raised again st it. The fact that the Board of
T ru stees and th e Lawrence p ow ers-th at-b e will be
e x a m in in g L aw ren ce’s in volvem en t in th e an tiA partheid m ovem ent through the Advisory C om ­
m ittee of South African Issu es is good, but LAAFD’s
g o a ls--a n d , in d eed , the drive to end A p arth eid —
w ou ld be b etter served if all m em b e r s of the
Lawrencc com m unity w ould sim ply listen.
T ills is not n eccssarlly a call for activism per sc;
th is is not a call for all Law rentians to Join IJ\AFD.
It is sim p ly a c h a lle n g e and a req u est to the
Law rence co m m u n ity to take th e tim e to learn
about Apartheid and be inform ed about the iss u e s
in volved. A m o v em en t like th e a n ti-A p arth eid
struggle can achieve only lim ited s u c c e s s if people
do not take the tim e to listcn --even If they are sy m ­
pathetic with the m ovem ent. We m ay not all agree if
we und erstan d the issu e s, and th at’s OK. Ignorance
of th ese im portant iss u e s is not.

B ut the trip w as not all official b u sin e ss.
Povolny said he and h is wife. Joyce, “stole a
few d ays for fam ily and friends," includ ing a
trip to Brno see his brother.
"I w a s very happy of course to see m y fam ­
ily, where I grew up, and friends I had not seen
ln years," said Povolny.
Povolny’s visit attracted the a tten tion of
th e tele v isio n s ta tio n s and n e w sp a p er s In
C zechoslovakia, and Povolny said m any p eo­
ple were an xiou s to see him.
“It seem ed h alf the village p assed through
our living room," he said . “People were w ak ­
ing u s up in the m orning on their way to work,
and w e’d be o ccu p ied until m idn ight every
day."
Povolny said the Czech people are “proud
of w hat they have done." referring to the m a ss
p r o te s ts and d e m o n str a tio n s ln Novem ber
and D ecem ber w hich toppled the C om m unist
governm ent. Povolny added that the people
are co n fid en t the revolu tion is irreversible,
Povolny sa id m ajor c o n c e r n s w hich he
and th e C ou ncil of Free C zechoslovak ia will
also try to ad d ress are the sh ortage of books
and Journals ln th e C zech libraries, and the
need for people to teach English.
He said it is a lso Im portant for u n iversi­
tie s in W estern E urope an d in the United
S tates to develop stu dent exchange programs
T h a t is one way ln w hich Lawrence can
help the C zechs.- he said.
Povolny gave m u ch of the credit for the
s u c c e s s of the “velvet revolution" to the Czech
stu d en ts and young workers who “took a stand
against the regime" on the critical w eekend of
Nov. 17 and 18 and du rin g th e su b seq u en t
strikes and protests.
Povolny said he d o es not e x p e c t-o r even
w a n t- to play a m ajor role ln the new govern­
m ent of C zechoslovak ia.
He p la n s to return to h is hom eland In May
or J u n e for anoth er official visit, and he has
also been invited to present a lecture or series
o f le c tu r e s at C z e c h o s lo v a k ia ’s M asaryk
University, where he earned his J.D . degree
"I’ll be ln touch with the country ," he said.
b ut there ls still som e fear am ong the people
a b ou t the str e n g th and In ten tion s of the
C om m u n ists.
Povolny said the major concern facing the
lead ers and people o f C zech oslovak ia right
now is m oving the country to free elections tn
April ln an orderly way so that the “political
spectrum does not get too fragmented."
T h e r e are about 3 5 parties already, but
about 3 0 will not c o u n t.“ said Povolny. T h er e
ls an u n d ersta n d a b le lack of experience in
d e m o cr a tic p r a c tic e s . It’s only b e e n two
m o n th s and a w eek sin ce the revolution b e ­
gan. and people m ust now learn how to orga­
nize parties, m ake com prom ises, and so forth.
“But it (the political participation of the
C zechs) sh ow s the trem endous en th u siasm on
the part of the people to get involved.The other major co n cern s of the C zechs.
Povolny sa id , in clu d e Im proving the m a n ­

Andy the Man of Vision

And if you ever had it
You would say he was no slob
All of the campus leaders
Used to laugh at LUCC
They never gave Andy credit

Then one night in winter term
Someone wrote to say
“Andy you’re so wonderful
You deserve a holiday"
So three weeks from now we’ll cheer him

For the campus, you've done it all.

A. T h ese often-confused words belong to a
fam ily that gram m arian s call “m etronom es."

but lay eggs underwater." The sim plest way to
tell them apart is to rem em ber that "criteria"

“W hen c h o o sin g a can didate for the United
S ta te s C on gress, the m ain criteria ls. hair “
W hereas "Criterion" ls a kind of car.
Q. What ls the correct way to spell words?
A. English spelling ls unusual because our

togeth er from th e ton gu es of the Greeks, the
L atins, the A ngles, the K laxtons, the Celtics,

today have so m uch trouble learning to spell:
S tu d y after stu d y sh o w s that young people
today have the intelligence of Brillo. This is
why It’s so im portant that we old folks te.n h

(CPS)--The N ational C ollegiate A th­
letic A s s o c ia tio n (NCAA) aw arded its
h igh est honor to former President Ronald
R eagan J a n . 8 during Its annual con ven ­
tion ln D allas, sparking a low key protest
am ong so m e college ofTiclals who say he
hurt w om en ’s ath letics during his time in
office.
“As far a s opportunities for wom en, as
far a s m inority opportunities during Rea­
g a n ’s a d m in istra tio n , they w eren’t very
good," said D onna Lopiano. wom en s ath­
letic director of the U niversity of Texas.
“In fact, they were awful.
“People are upset that the NCAA selec­
tion com m ittee c h o se som eone who s u p ­
ported opportunities for Just half the pop­
ulation," Lopiano said.
R eagan c a m p a ig n e d a g a in st a law
called Title IX of the E ducation A m end­
m en ts of 1972. which threatened to cut olT
fed eral fu n d s to sc h o o ls that d iscrim i­
nated against w om en. He argued the law
w as an unw arranted federal intrusion in
private affairs.
W hile in office, R eagan’s J u stic e D e­
p a rtm en t w rote “friend of th e court"
briefs su p p ortin g Grove City College's le ­
gal ch allen ge to the law. arguing the fund
cu to ff threat applied only to the specific
programs that directly got federal m oney
and. consequently, not athletic programs.
The US Suprem e Court su b seq u en tly
ruled Grove City w as correct. In 1988.
when C on gress approved a Civil Rights
Restoration Act to replace Title IX. Rea­
gan vetoed lt. C on gress later overturned
the veto.
The former president’s actions did not
endear him to w om en's sp o rts groups,
which had u sed Title IX to pressu re c o l­
leges to go to the exp en se of estab lish in g
wom en's sports facilities and team s.
Richard Nixon. Lopiano said , would
have been a better ch oice for the NCAA's
award. “He w as president w hen Title IX
was promulgated."
The NCAA received five letters c o n ­
cerning the Reagan award, four of them
negative, NCAA sp o k e sm a n J im Marchlony said. Former profession al golfer
Carol Mann resign ed her sea t on the
awards com m ittee to protest the honor.
“It’s a m inor flak." M archlony said. "I
w ouldn’t call lt a national groundswell."
