The Munich Chamber Orchestra will
open a tour of North America with a
concert in John Milton Colton Chapel
at the college Monday at 8:30 p.m.
The orchestra, composed of 15 virtuoso string players plus harpsichord,
will perform under the Lectures-Concerts Series program.
The Rroup, under the leadership of
Hans Stadlmair, has performed thousands of concerts throughout the
world.
Their present tour includes perI formances in New York City, Washington, Detroit and Chicago. Last
season, they performed 32 concerts
in cities ranging from Washington
land New Yorlc to Toronto and St.
Paul.
The conceit will include Handel's
"Concerto Grosso (Op. 6) No. 1 in
G major;" Haydn's "'Violin Concerto
No. 1 in C major;" Vivaldi's "Concerto for Two Violoncelli and String
Orchestra in g minor," and Hindemith's "Five Pieces for String Orchestra."
The orchestra will use authentic
instrumentation for the baroque music. Instead of the customary piano, a
harpsichord is employed for the accompanying continuo part; and, for
the music of Vivaldi, violinist Berthold Goetschel switches to a guitar.
Ticket information may be obtained
by calling the Public Inf.irmation
Office. Reduced price tickets are

can public who believed that the U.S.
was winning the war in Vietnam.
He maintained that "the capability
of the surprise attack of liberation
forces didn't come as a surprise to the
experts. For several years, he continued, correspondents and diplomats
in the South have said that there were
vast areas of Saigon continuing to be
controlled by the Liberation Front's
local officials who collect taxes to
maintain the Front.
According to reports confirmed by
British economists, Salisbury said,
"the N.L.P. controls 60-75% of the
rural area of South Vietnam. If this
organization were strong enough to
maintain underground control, as well
as over the countryside, it must be
recognized as a significant force."
In reference to U.S. war policy,
Salisbury noted that the "great bulk
of effort made in Vietnam has been
in the form of air attack against the
North. There have been military engagements along the fringe of the
DMZ, but there has not been much
pressure in the South until recently."
The Times editor then explored the
miliUry utility of the bombing of the
North. He said the U.S. decided originally to bomb the North for three
particular reasons: to interdict the
movement of men and supplies from
the North to the South, to persuade
Ho Chi Minh to sue for peace, or
otherwise, to hit the countryside so
hard that popular opinion would force
the war's end."
' "Thus far," Salisbury remarked,
"this policy has failed on all three
grounds. Although this failure caused
an outcry in the Pentagon, Defense
Secretary Robert McNamara was not
surprised."
Salisbury stated a year ago that
we were bombing the North at the
same rate that we bombed Germany
during World War IL The bombing
has been given every chance to produce results.

"The bombing failed," Salisbury
said, "because the North Vietnamese

Education Reformer Goodman
To Speak For Student Power
Dr. P a u l Goodman, the country's
best known critic on the educational
system, will read his poetry at 4:15
p.m. in Marquis, and then discuss the
ramifications of education at 8 p.m.
in Colton Chanel on Wednesday.
In addition to being a poet, Goodman has been a long standing literary
critic "nd has written several books on
education.
In his most famous work, "Growing Up Absurd," Goodman argues
that increasing compartmentalization
in an impersonal American society
discourages youth from seeking meaningful and creative work and fosters
widespread apathy.
"Studenta are the most exploited
clatt," argues Goodman, "and exert
far less political influence and receive
far less respect than their numbers
and capabilities would merit."
At Boston C o l l e g e , Goodman
stated that "a majority of us (students) stay in school to get a union
card, or to avoid the draft, or because we have nothing else to do."
Kill the Draft!
"Without a degree yon can't get
a decent job, but the degree has nothing to do with the job. As far as
the draft is concerned, the only thing
to do is kill it! I'd like to change it
so that those who would go would be
all over 40 and making $33,000 or
more," clamoured Goodman.
According to Goodman, colleges are
poor at giving academic professional
training for that small fraction who
need or want it. He added that education is not necessary for certain flelds,
like architecture, which he called an
"apprentice profession."
[Harrison Salisbury Decries Viet Ejfort;
Asserts Bombing, Escalation Have Failed
by RON LEIR
"The Vietcong has proved itself
I as a force to be reckoned with," Harri.son Salisbury, assistant managing
editor of the New York Times, said
I Wednesday evening.
"The policy of bombing the North
I is not achieving any results at all,"
I he continued.
Salisbury gave his "Report from
[Hanoi," at 8:00 p.m. in Colton Chapel,
which was sponsored by the LecturesI Concerts Series, and .the International
[Relations Society.
His report was based on informa[tion compiled during a recent tour
lof North Vietnam including Hanoi
I and it's environs.
Salisbury said this "sudden erupjtion of a violent biting attack on
I Saigon came as a shock" to those
I Washington officials and the Ameri-

times as many pontoon bridges in the
North as were present a year ago.
Salisbury said that "the Vietcong's
surprise attack was a year in preparation." Weapons and food supplies were
hauled 1000 miles from Russia and
China on the backs of men to the
South for the offensive. "Air power,"
he asserted, can't interdict this kind
of patient struggle."
'The Vietnamese live in thatched
huts," Salisbury noted. "Any attempt
to bomb them into the caves of the
stone age would only improve their
living standards."
"In the very first air attack, in
July, 1966, against Haiphong, the
total oil reserves of the North were
destroyed," Salisbury reported. "However, oil drums, sent by Russia are
now scattered all over the country.
Their capacity can't be knocked out
as long as the supply comes in and
are utilized through primitive expedience," he concluded.
"The morale of the North has improved with increased bombing. The
natural lines of division between
peasants and Communist bosses have
been blotted out because of the common problem of survival in the face
of the bombing offensive. The spirit
of the young Asian country is good
as long as the rice rations are maintained," he stated.
According to Salisbury, "Four military targets have not as yet been hit
from the air. These include Hanoi,
Haiphong harbor, the system of dams
and dikes of the Red River Delta, and
the route from the China frontier; o n
land, invasion of the North, playing
around the DMZ, and invasion of
Cambodia and Laos are the alternatives. All these possibilities are unlikely because of the danger of inciting war with Russia or China."
"Inevitably, we turn back to the
possibility of extricating ourselves by
negotiation," Salisbury stressed. "Our
interest and that of Asia would best
be served by allowing Vietnam to become independent with a neutral
Southeast Asia."
China sees U.S. occupation of Vietnam as a base for further expansion
into her territory.
"Let's see if we can't, out of the

"It's Hke putting the cart before
the horse. You gel into the career
and then decide what you need to
know. Classically, only medicine and
theology need academic degrees," he
added.
"New York banks hire Negroes and
Puerto Ricans without high school
diplomas, and they do a fine job, but
Macy's want salesgirls with high school
degrees," stated Goodman.
"If Rules Interfere, Disobey Them"
In order to "humanize" the university, he has
said
that
the
student must ask what he needs to
know. "If rules interfere, disobey
them, take a stand, and give more
power to a democratic student government."
Goodman was born in 1911 and
graduated from the City College of
New York. He received a PhD. in humanities from the University of Chicago.
In such controversial novels as
"The Empire City" and "Making Do,"
Goodman has used the medium o f
fiction to argue for the same confrontations w i t h
depersonalizing
forces, which he expou.'^es in his essays. His poetry has also been collected in "The Lordly Hudson."
As a critic of inadequate city planning and lack of feeling for human
beings on the part of city governments, Goodman was co-author of a
pioneering study of urban life, ''Communitas."
A leading pacifist, Goodman serves
on the editorial board of Liberation
magazine, and has also contributed
to Commentary, The Kenyon Review,
Partisan Review, The New York Review of Books, and Dissent.
"It is Paul Goodman's awareness
of the reality o f the educational problems as seen by the students . . . .
that makes his ideas for the reform of
colleges so important," says Harold
Taylor in Commentary.
Student Council To Give
Freshmen Voting Rights
A resolution giving the freshman
class voting members during the second semester was passed at the Student
Council
meeting
Wednesday
night.
Lawrence Mitchell '71, who was
strongly rebuked at the Council's last
meeting, was the author of the resolution :
"The freshman class council representatives to Student CJouncil should
have the status of associate members
first semester and become voting
members second semester."
Mitchell said that these members
should be elected in the fall with all
class officers.
A New Petition
He came to the meeting with
a petition for expanded freshman representation, signed by 180 freshmen.
Joseph Cox '68 argued that under
Mitc^H's plan, the voting freshman
fttet8B^r»«f Council would be elected
01^ %(•"> *he freshman class, whereas under the present system " 1 0 0 %
of the student body votes at time of
election."
John Barnes '68 countered by
stating that the freshman class does
indeed need expanded representation.
Richard Wessner '71, president of
the class, called the
present
Council "a committee, not a representative body."
Stated Jay Taylor '69 just before
the ballot, "It wouldn't be dangerous to have these two people voting."
The resolution was then passed on
a nine to four vote with two abstentions.
''Experimentation"
Barry Willner '69, co-editor of th*
Lafayette,
addressed
the council
about the "state of experimentation"
which the college is now in.
He suggested that the council encourage student discussion of fresh>
man and sophomore requirements, a
pass-fail system and unlimited cuts
for seniors, and co-education. These
areas are now under study in faculty
committees.
Willner also recommended that
Council hold a "mock ( U . S . ) presidential election."
Stephen Bottcher '68, president of
the Council, later expressed approval
of Winner's proposals.
Bottcher also announced the College
Convocation to be held March 13.
The topic of the convocation will be,
"The City 1968: Chaos or Order?"
Smokey Robinson and the Miracles "Got A Job" tonight in Alumni Memorial
Gymnasium at 8 p.m. No tickets will be sold at the door. (See story on page five.)

Theta Delt Placed On Pro Dr, Pfretzschner To Run For District
Due To Pledging Activity Delegate Post At Democratic Convention
"Theta Delta Chi will be placed
on social probation zz of Monday,
because of its pledging practices,"
Herman Kissiah, dean of students, said
at the Inter-Fratemity Council meeting Tuesday night.
This action, which follows a complaint about TheU Delta Chi's pledging policy, was taken after consultation with the members of the Dean's
Office, the fraternity's national secretary and faculty adviser, and the
Faculty-Student Affairs Committee.
"I'm not making Theta Delta Chi an
example nor a scapegoat, but this is
what happens to a fraternity when it
disobeys a college rule," said Kissiah.
In a statement read before the IFC,
he maintained that a college regulation was passed a few years ago
against hazing.
For disobeying the college rules on
hazing, the fraternity will submit a
new pledge program.
Small Colleges
Called Useful
By Chandler
Dr. John Wesley Chandler, retiring
president of Hamilton College, recently spoke out on saving the small
liberal arts college as a part of the
educational system.
"These small colleges provide an
education that wears long and well,"
Dr. Chandler said. "Hamilton, for example, gives a student a stable basis
for reflection, inquiry, and synthesis."
He noted that the quality of instruction at a small college is generally
much better than at a large institution. He stated that at a big school
instruction is largely conducted by
graduate students with tight teaching
and writing schedules.
"The private liberal arts colleges
are in a real bind," Dr. Chandler
pointed out "They are struggling to
maintain competitive salary levels.
Hamilton is well above the average,
but our rate of improvement is not
rapid enough."
All of his department chairmen
have expressed a need for ut least one
more member for their staffs, the
college is outgrowing its library, and,
while the college's deficit of $50,000
is not too big now, he stated that there
is a danger that it will grow.
Dr. Chandler added, " . . the eventual solution to the financial problems
fo Hamilton and other liberal arts
colleges must be in the form of increased public funds."
All pledge activity will cease until
this is done.
"This problem wasn't turned over
to the IFC first because there was no
judicial board to handle it sufficiently," Deming Cowles '68, IFC President, said.
"This action does not negate the
efforU of IFC," Dean Kissiah remarked in turn.
Fratemitiae: Valuable, Exciting
Continuing along these lines, Kissiah remarked that "fraternities have
a valuable and exciting place on the
Lafayette campus . . . Fraternities
can accomplish a lot as they have in
the past, have in the present^ and will
have In the future."
Now is the time for fraternity
pledgemasters to get together; I want
to see strong houses here at Lafayette," he continued.
"For strong houses here, it will
take time to change," Cowles replied.
Cowles also questioned the point
"whether the fraternity system is to
benefit the students or to benefit the
administration."
Four rushing sub-committees were
appointed. William Messick '68 will
head the sub committee on parties and
Ernest Wynne III '68 will chair the
grroup investigating open houses.
Robert Asitoll '68 will investigate
freshman orientation and Jeffrey Eaken '68 will head the 'rush week' committee.
Philip Ludeke '68 urged an investigation of the fraternity Black Ball
System. He is an independent.
The IFC decided to survey the
houses to determine the pros and cons
of this system.

We know that some college men go into business only because they have to. They
need the money.
Others want the money (as well as security and prestige; even if it means giving up
a certain amount of personal satisfaction. The satisfaction of performing a valuable social
service. The good feeling that comes with maintaining your sense of independence.
Yet, there is one business career where you don't have to "sell out," er sacrifice any
of these things. Life insurance sales.
Surprised? Consider this.
A man doesn't "need" insurance to live. But he shouldn't die without it. Not if he
loves his family. More and more people understand this today. They've also learned that
the right kind of insurance program can help put their kids tiirough college, and let them
retire in comfort. Business, too, uses life insurance in many creative ways. That's why life
insurance is one of the fastest growing industries in the country.
Connecticut Mutual Life is one of the fastest growing companies in insurance. It is
also one of the finest—the 'Blue Chip' company. Our policies give more liberal protection.
Our dividends are traditionally among the highest in the business. Our extensive training
program makes the 'Blue Chip' agent uniquely qualified to solve his clients' most important money problems.
We now need men for our Sales Management Training Program, who can apply
imagination and energy to providing vital services to their clients. Not just "selling" life
"^
insurance—but developing pension programs for business, planning estates, helping families to get all the
good things out of life.
The opportunity is virtually unlimited. 3 0 % of our
agents earn over $18,000 a year. If you are really goo '
you can make as much as $50,000 or more a year.T
more than many corporation presidents m?'

GOLDEN LURE
From the vouneest age, people
are attract«>d by the Rleam of (cold.
The monetary units of entire nations, plus onr own country's
economy, revolve around the supnly of gold and itn value. Gold has
been used in jewelry for centuries,
and its fashioning reflects the art
and skills of many cultures.
Very often, cuMomers ask me
specific quegtions about (rold markings and tprms. We jewelers sometimes forget that our technical iareon is a mystery to the uninitiated.
"Gold fill»d." "rollpd eold plate"
and "srold electroplate" all mean
entirely different thinprs in the way
a Jewelry niece Is manufactured.
Let's take them one by one.
Pure gold is 24 Karat, but since
this is too soft for jewelry use,
it is allowed with other metals.
When there are 18 parts of srold
to 6 parts of b*^"" metal, the item
is stamped "ISK"; if 14 parts of
(fold to 10 parts base metal, than
it is "14K." If less than 10 parts
of pold, the item will not carry
a karat marking. When pure gold
is thinly applied to jewelry for
coloring effect, usinsr an electrolytic process, it is stamped "Gold
Electroplate."
Jewelry stamped "gold filled" or
"rolled prold plate" consists of a
base of metal (usually a copper
alloy) with a sheet of gold. On the
surfaces of the metal, gold of 10
Knrpt or 14 Karat quality is attached by a mechanical process. If
the sheet is 14K, and is 1/10 the
total weight of the piece, it will
be marked. "1/10, 14K gold filled."
If it is 1/30 to 1/50 of the weight,
it is not "gold filled" and should
be marked "Rolled Gold Plate" as
"1/30, 14K-R.G.P."

reading didn't cause any problems.
You could keep up with what
was hap[>ening pretty well.
But today, our knowledge is
exploding so fast that people
who want to keep ahead are
actually falling behind. There's
simply too much to read. Too
much homework. Too many
magazines. Too many books.
Too many reports and memos.
What's the solution? Learn how
to read faster and better.
You can do it, too. So far over
300,000 other people have done it.
People with different jobs,
different IQ's, different interests,
different educations. Students,
businessmen, housewives.
These people have all taken a
course developed by Evelyn Wood,
a prominent educator. And all
of them have at least tripled their
reading speed with equal or better
comprehension. Most have
increased it even more. Some have
increased it 10, even 20 times.
Think for a moment what
that means.
All of them — even the slowest —
now read an average novel in less
than two hours. They read this
ad in 8 seconds. They read this
entire issue of Time in IS minutes.
They don't skip or skim, either.
They read every single word.
Nor do they use machines.
Instead, they let the material they're
reading determine how fast
they read.
And—mark this well—they
actually understand more and
remember more and enjoy more
than when they read like you.
That's right. They understand more.
They remember more. They
enjoy more.
You can do the same thing—
even if you're a relatively slow
reader now. Ini fact, if you don't at
least triple your reading ability, the
course won't cost you a thing.
This is the same course
President Kennedy had his Joint
Chiefs of Staff take. The same one
Senators and Congressmen
have taken.
It's eight weeks long. 2Vi hours
a week, with classes held regularly
in Philadelphia, Jenkintown,
Wynnewood, Cherry Hill,
Allentown and Wilmington.
Shouldn't you find out mure

at 8:00 p.m. in Alumni Memorial
Gymnasium. Tickets will not be sold

Accompanying Smokey and the
Miracles will be their guitarist Marv
Tarplin and their band, the Monitors.
According to William "Smokey"
Robinson, "A hit record is a springboard to success, but it takes a real
'pro' to stay on top." This is the
story of Smokey and the Miracles
after their first smash hit recording
of "Shop Around" in 1961.
Within months, the Miracles had
"Got A Job" at the top of the record
charts.
^
From that time on, between the
tunes they have recorded themselves
or those that they have composed
for other artists, the nation's record
lists have often looked like a monopoly for "Smokey" and his associates.

Colleges Keep
Secrets Going
WASHINGTON (CPS)—Although
opposition to secret research on university campuses has increased during the past six months, the Pentagon
claims universities have not responded by backing down on their classified research agreements.
In fact, a Defense Department official said some college and university administrations have responded
by writing the Pentagon expressing
their willingness to take on secret research projects, or to increase the
number they now have. These administrations apparently want to
roake their positions exceedingly clear
"1 case some universities decide to
drop their classified projects.
Dr. Arwin A. Dougal, assistant director of the Pentagon's office for research and engineering, would not
say how many universities have expressed an interest in conducting secret research. He also declined to list
specific schools which have written
the Pentagon in this regard.

Robinson, ...i
whose group has come
up with a succession of hit discs on
Motown's Tamla label, many of which
he wrote himself, believes that in
order to succeed in today's highly
competitive music world, a group must
do more than just stand stationery
before an audience and perform their
hit records.
An Audience Grabber
"When you have a hit record,
you're in demand," Robinson comments. "Everyone wants you. But if
you're just a product of a recording
studio and are not ready to put on
a show or hold an audience, you're
going to run into trouble," he added.
"And if you can't excite and hold
your audience, you won't be back."
Robinson not o n l y preaches this
philosophy but he lives it. Before he
and his group walk into a television
studio, theater or night club, they
are ready to give a professional performance.
The myriad talents of Smokey Robinson as a song-writer are reflected
in the fact that not only is he the
author of most of the Miracles own
hits, but also those of best-selling
artists as the Temptations, Marvin
Gaye, Sonny and Cher, the Rolling
Stones, and the Marvelettes.
According to folk-rock singer BobDylan, a renowned lyricist in his
own right, "Smokey Robinson is today's greatest living poet."
Need • Poliihed Act
"Without a strong, polished act,
a group doesn't have much of a future," Robinson stated. "If you want
proof, just try to remember all the
singers who had hit records five years
ago, and then count the ones who are
still up at the top today. You'll be
surprised when you see how few they
are."
Dr. K. Roald Bergethon, President
of the College, will conduct a "Dialogue" in the East Wing of Marquis,

Rendezvous With Wagner
by PAUL A. PFRETZSCHNER
Professor of Government and Law
The other night the Easton Express
listed my name in timid faced type
a m i d s t a collection of courageous
characters referred to as "Dissident
Democrats." I was, it announced, one
of a number of candidates who had
entered the primary against the "organization's" men for delegate positions in the Democratic National Convention.
Me anti-organization ? It was like a
whiff of the elixer of youth. I hunkered in my sagging abdominal muscles, thought for just the briefest moment that I might hunt out my old
Soapy Williams' bow-ties, and struck
what I hoped would look like a fighting pose. Dissident Democrat? I've
been a pro-incumbent voter so long
even my dog Bonnie is bored with my
political small-talk.
Still, the journalistic evidence w a s
there. I was an announced candidate.
Indeed, I'm not a very dissenting
Democrat, albeit a dissonant one. Indeed, I'm dissatisfied, but I'm not going around singing my blues about
LBJ in this paper because the skills of
complaining have been so completely
pre-empted by the present college generation and are so much their hallmark that any attempt on my part
would be put down instantly as inept,
trivial, and sheer amateur. But I
might ask, where will it all get me?
Nowhere, you say. I know that. As
William Buckley replied to a reporter's question, the first thing I'd do
if I am elected is ask for a recount.
But seriously, are there any open
channels for dissenting Democrats
these days?
"Where Does One Turn?"
If one is honest about wanting to influence or alter public policy he must
have an effective mechanism for doing so. Where does one turn? The organized New Left ? How can one seriously give his support to a group that
cannot distinguish between mass confusion and participatory democracy,
and that is so anti-egalitarian that it
is willing to sacrifice majority rule on
the altar of Black Power? Eugene McCarthy? Eugene McCarthy is alive
and well and preparing articles for
Christianity and Crisis from the cell
of an exiled Tibetan Lama. Hubert
Humphrey? Hubert Humphrey is
alive. Bobby Kennedy? Well, another
speech or two like that last one in
Chicago and he'll have the crowd on
its feet begging for a knock-out. But
is Bobby trying for a K. 0., or is he
avoiding the title bout?
Yes, if you are going to beat a
somebody you have to have your own
somebody. The somebody is obviously
not a Dr. Spock testing the limits of
the Constitution in Boston nor a Dr.
King tenting the limits of restraint in
Washington. Quite naturally a middle
aged liberal's fancy strays to taunting and harassing the President until the close of the Democratic National Convention, and then bolting to Nelson Rockefeller whom the Republicans
will conveniently nominate for him.
But the p a r t y of Everett Dirksen,
Gerald Ford and John Tower may not
be so obliging.
Even if the Republican Convention
drafts Nelson Rockefeller, there is another pitfall to contemplate. By September, ex-Governor George Wallace
will be running at full throttle on a
head of steam generated by a dozen
or more burning cities, and he may
highball right through all of Dixie's
47 electoral votes — and then some.
With Wallace on the ballot elsewhere
and pulling a substantial vigihinte
vote, as Gus Tyler calls it, the rest of
the states could split fairly closely between Johnson and Rockefeller. The
result, as everyone knows, would be
to force the choice of President into
the House of Representatives for the
first time since 1824. And what sort
of House would it be ? To quote Gus
Tyler again, "The beat Johnson movement inevitably, if not intentionally,
becomes a beat-the-liberals-for-Congress movement." Therein lies the real
threat in shotgun attacks on the President.
Employ Party Channels
The o t h e r horn of the dilemma
equally unacceptable, is to s u b m i t
passively and complacently to the war
policy which the last Commencement
speaker at Lafayette called, "wrong
politically, militarily and morally."
Thus, one is bound to try to pick up
the pieces somewhere. As a modest
start, I might suggest that liberal
Democrats can and should take advantage of every opportunity to employ party channels to convey to party
leadership their distaste for a repugnant foreign policy and for the abandonment of the momentum of the social welfare state. At the same time
they might consider ways to place
themselves in strategic positions to affect the course of decision making by
that leadership. By retaining flexibility, they can seize whatever opportunities may be presented with respect to
alternate candidates and policies.
So I am a dissident Democratic, an
uncommitted candidate running for office. I should be a happy warrior, but
I can't avoid a sense of Wagnerian
gloom. It would be magnificent to
have a rendezvous with destiny, but
it's more apt to be a hang-up with
Gotterdammerung.

Robert Kennedy presently finds himself in a new, and perhaps uncomfortable, position—the role of the moralist
politician. By nature, Kennedy is an
outspoken, committed man. He is an
energetic man. However, while he has
found the energy to air his views on
Vietnam, drugs, and poverty, he quickly becomes tongue-tied when the question of the 1968 Presidential race is
put before him.
What plagues Kennedy is a conflict
The Confusion Of The War
by WILLIAM COX
Inttructor In Hittory
Asked my thoughts on the relation between our Southeast Asian
policy .and the coming presidential
election, I was invited to write in
the capacity of "expert." Putting
aside this presumption, I agreed to
address the issues involved in my private capacity as a befuddled United
States citizen.
I do have clear opinions on our
present policy: the United States has
already destroyed the possibility o f an
independent South Vietnam. We may
endure in our capacity as bulwark
of our created ally in Saigon, but
our presence has already destroyed
any genuine national sentiment that
might have sustained a South Vietnamese government.
Communism thrives on war and
"imperialism." Despite our good intentions we represent both. Our policy, if our actions may be dignified
by that term, is based upon reminiscences of Munich and Cold War "'Containment" which, if relevant to a Europe twenty years ago, are not applicable to South Vietnam.
Once again the nation is preparing
itself for a presidential election which
could prove a crucial point to our
country for the following reasons.
While in the past we have suffered
either a foreign or a domestic crisis,
we have never had to contend with
a combination of foreign and domestic
issues simultaneously.
An American general recently justified the destruction of a South
Vietnamese town by U. S. forces: "We
had to destroy the city in order to
save it." Is there then a difference
in the kind of salvation we, the U. S.
Army or the Viet Cong victorious
can offer the South Vietnamese? At
this point, I sincerely doubt it.
The question of what is to be done,
in a theoretical sense, thus has an
answer. It is the practical side which
presents difficulties.
What then may I do to tee that
what I think needt doing be done?
At an American, I entertain a piout
hope: it it an election year and our
Viet Nam policy will be a real ittue.
Everyone announced againtt Johnton
hat mentioned the inadequaciet of
"hit" policy, though only Wallace
and McCarthy teem to offer real alternativet. For mytelf, I With Mr.
Nixon jutt one "latt prett conference."
Among Republicani, perhapt Rockefeller repretentt at leatt a hope —
he hatn't taid any thing yet.
And what will be the issue of our
continued presence?
Perforce, I stake my hopes on the
campaign of Senator McCarthy. If
he can muster enough delegate
strength before the convention, perhaps Robert Kennedy will put his
political career on the line in this
worthiest of causes. McCarthy I am
sure would pass the banner with a
sigh of relief. The possibility is remote but the only one I know which
.seems constructive. Remote as it is,
it may be the only hope we have.
policies is coming from former supporters of President Johnson.
The Deplorable Spectacle
The split within the ADA and the
(Continued on Page 9, Col. 1)
Herein lies Kennedy's problem. He
must realize that the stand he takes
this year will be important if he sincerely wishes to be considered Presi.
dential potential. H e does not necessarily have to run as a candidate. Bnt
he must—he is expected to—take i
stand. If he supports Johnson, regardless of the issues, he must run in the
future as having committed himself to
that platform. He will have to run on
the merits of the previous administration, much as Richard Nixon had to do
in I960. Should he dissent and oppose
Johnson or support Sentor McCarthy,
he is staking a great deal of his future on the results of this year's election. A Johnson victory in November
would then label Kennedy an a party
renegade and a loser as well.
Kennedy does have time to make
his decision. He can wait until the Republican candidate is announced. He
can wait to see the results of Sen. McCarthy's campaign in the primaries.
President Johnson has betrayed his
promises of 1964. Moreover his "savior faire" seems bound to the North
American continent.
In this century, the Democratic
Party has been able to form a coalition of Southern conservatives, Negroes, intellectuals, labor union members, and ethnic groups which has
made it the dominant party of power
in the nation. The Democrats not only
control Congress and the Presidency,
but they extend their influence
throughout most of our major cities.
They still tend to identify their aims
with the wishes of the "common worker" which has resulted in their claim
o f being a "party of the people." As
their lead in voter registration figures indicate, there appears to be
some merit to this assumption.
He can wait for a while to see if any
appreciable change occurs with the
war in Vietnam. But the point is he
must take a stand and this means he
must back someone for the Presidency.
People have come to expect this from
Robert Kennedy. The average citizen
still sees him as a man of conscience.
Kennedy's decision and its timing wi"
be important considerations if he
wishes to retain this public image that
has made him popular.
Kennedy—A Realist
As a realist, Kennedy will have to
consider his political, vote-gettin?
strength before his final decision is
reached. He is strong with America's
youth. He is strong with the rank-andfile Democratic citizenry, who hold
much say in nominating their party's
candidate. But he is not particularly
strong with the Northeast, big-city.
Democratic bosses. He will have to
prove his strength to them before they
will back him. To do this, he could
back a candidate in the primaries, or
run someone in his stead, or run himw\i as his brother did in 1960. But his
brother was not dealing with an incumbent President from his own party, and this makes Robert Kennedy's
chances that much more improbable
of landing the support of his party s
power brokers.
I suspect that a majority of the
people really endorsed past domestic
legislation, such as, Medicare, Social
Security, and the Civil Ri^^hts which
were pushed by Democratic liberaLs
and Presidents, Internationally, the
Peace Corps and the Nuclear Test
Ban Treaty also received popular acceptance.
However, this year the Democratic
Party appears to be fragmented because of internal and externa] factors. The greatest torment for the
party is the unending war in Vietnam.
It's interesting to note that the strongest criticism of our present foreign
between his moral conviction and his
ambition. He has made it known that
he is at odds with the Johnson Administration on the handling of many issues, particularly Vietnam. On the
other hand, it is not outlandish to say
that Robert Kennedy's future political plans probably revolve around an
attempt to win the Presidency of the
United States—if not in 1968, then in
1972,1976.
Governor Romney't limited appreciation of diplomacy ditqualifiet him
to my mind. General Gavin it in retreat before the Pentagon, withdrawn
to an enclave of hit own.
But being convinced of the selfdefeating nature of our present position, I admit confusion as to what is
to be done, to pirate a celebrated
Russian phase. That we must disengage immediately is clear to me. Destruction no doubt will eventuate
from our withdrawal.

Robert Kennedy--'68
"My own political survival matters less to me than the deaths ofTthenHen!"
The Kennedy position is a ticklieli
one, indeed. He is torn between h's
well-publicized morality and his wellpublicized ambition. His strugglei «
appears, is between doing what >s
right or what is best for Robert Kennedy. His solution will have to be skillfully designed to satisfy both these
criteria.

Q: How long have you been actively involved in politict?
A: I have been actively involved
in Democratic politics since the 1966
Democratic primary. I was co-campaign chairman for Henry Messinger
who ran for Congressman from the
15th Congressional District, and lost.
Q: How did you go about loting

A: The main problem we ran into
was that we could not get adequate
coverage fix)m the newspapers in the
area. They did a very good job at
covering his opening speech, at which
he announced himself as a candidate.
But after that they evidently assumed
that he was going to lose, and therefore he was not worth listening to.

Q: Do you thing politic! is a place
for college profetiort?
A: Yes, I do. I believe they have
to make a choice, whether they are
going to live on the outskirts of the
party or work within the structure.
It's a question of w h e t h e r you're
going to become a Democrat in the
true .sense of the word, or whether
you're going to become a Democrat
who becomes excited about issues,
.such as Vietnam or civil rights. Most
college professors tend to live on the
outskirts. When the issues aren't
there, they (the professors) aren't
there.
Qi They're back in the ivory tower?
A: Yes, I think so. But when you
say ivory tower, I can think of the
word in another meaning in this case.
That is, they would be concerned with
politics in the sense they would be
concerned with issues, and therefore
would remain in their ivory towers.
They wouldn't be involved in the
nitty-gritty of how a political party
works.
Q: Do people in the 15th Dittrict
ten to vote on ittuet, or pertonalitiet,
or it a lot determined by party
ttrength?
A: Party strength has a lot to do
with what goes on in the 15th District. But from what I've seen, I
think people in general vote more for
personalities than on issues. I think
the recent campaign for Mayor was
a good case in point. Democrats came
out in droves and voted for Republicans.
Q: You're running at a "peace"
delegate for the Penntylvania delegation to the Democratic convention in
August.
It thit running of "peace" delegates
being conducted throughout the state?
A: Yes, as far as I know in every
congressional district in Pennsylvania. No doubt some are more organized than others; we consider the
15th District to be very well organized. We hope we will be successful
and I personally believe we have a
chance.
Q: It the Democratic Party in the
15th District reacting at all to thit
challenge? Or don't they contider it
a challenge?
A : As far as we know, there has
been no observable reaction. However, as time goes on, we may find
that the party will strongly support
its delegates to the National Convention. It may have to go out of its
way to let the people know who the
delegates are that it supports. The
reaction up to this point has been nil.
Q: What tort of commitment thould
be asked of "peace" delegates from
the 15th District?
A : Every independent delegate who
is running has his own views on Vietnam and what the country should do
to solve the problem of Vietnam. So
there is concensus only in the sense
that the independents are disturbed
about what is happening in Vietnam
and they would like to see a change
in leadership.
There are those people who are
running, and I am one of them, who
are committed against Johnson, who
will not vote for him in any circum-
stance. I am sure these will constitute a sizeable minority of the delegates at the convention, those who
will not he at all happy if Johnson is
renominiited.
Q: What then are the chances of
Bobby Kennedy and Eugene McCarthy:
A : Kennedy's withdrawal has been
a major disappointment to those involved in the "peace" movement. I
personally feel that he has an obligation to run. I don't think he has
the moral right to do what he's doing.
It appears that he is not going to be,
in his brother's words, a "profile in
courage." I think he's going to lose a
lot of the support he has if he doesn't
try to win the nomination.
To be perfectly frank, Eugene McCarthy has very little chance of being nominated at the Democratic convention. He has an exposure problem.
He's simply not well known. He's
been conducting a low key campaign
and as a result he has not been inspiring people the way they would
like to be inspired. He's a victim of
what the newspapers are now calling
the "passion gap."
I think we have to wait for the
New Hampshire primary. McCarthy
may well surprise people there. The
Johnson people are pushing so hard
they are nauseating the regular Democrats. This is hurting Johnson. The
people of New Hampshire, and I was
one of them at one time, are very
independent-minded people and they
don't want to be pushed into anything.
Q: What do you think might happen to the "peace" movement in the
event that Johnson and Nixon are
nominated by their parties?
A : It will possibly become more mili-
tant. There may yjeh be people who
would do foolish things because of
it, though I hope they don't.
I don't see at this time how Johnson would be able to conduct a normal campaign. As Richard Nixon
pointed out, John.wn cannot go down
a street in an American city without
seeing a sign asking him how many
babies he killed today. This will be
a real problem.
Q: What role can non-voting students play in the '68 elections?
A : The role that non-voting students have played traditionlaly in
American politics is one of doing the
busy work for a candidate; stuffing
envelopes, making phone calls, etc.
One place a student can work is within his own peer group, among his fellow students, convincing them of his
beliefs.
Q: Are Lafayette ttudentt playing
an active role in the election in which
you are involved?
A : Yes, members of the Students
for Democratic Reform will be actively involved in the campaign, making
phone calls and surveys of voter registration lists.
Q: What doet the college need mott,
in your opinion?
A; Lafayette College needs, more
than anything else, enthusiastic students; students who are willing to do
their scholastic work, who will be
interested about what is happening
in Easton, in the United States. I
think Lafayette is attracting this type
of student more and more. This is,
above everything else, what Lafayette needs.
Q: What could it belt do without?
A : It could best do \vithout compulsory R O T C — R . E .

Talk to the man from General Electric. He represents 130 separate GE "companies" that deal in
everything from space research to electric toothbrushes. We call them product departments. Each
one is autonomous with its own management and
business objectives. That's why a job at General
Electric offers the kind of immediate responsibility you might expect to find only in a small business. Right from the start you get a chance to
demonstrate your initiative and individual capabilities. And the more you show us, the faster you
will move ahead. As you do, you'll find that you
don't necessarily have to spend a lifetime working
on the same job in the same place. We have operations all over the world. Chances are you'll get to
try your hand at more than one of them. Our interviewer will be on campus soon. If you're wondering
whether it's possible to find challenging work in big
business, please arrange to see him. He speaks for
130 "companies."

Legislative Impotence
According to college rules, sexual relations do not exist at
our college, for the administration takes no notice of it, and
"open door" dormitory rules make no provision for it. Yet, sooner
or later our college will have to grant the simple parietal privileges of privacy to those of its students who live in dormitories
and social living groups. By doing so the college will grant to its
students a degree of social autonomy permitted at scores of other colleges years ago (i.e. Haverford, Harvard, Tufts).
The college has attempted to accept the role of moral arbiter for its students, a role which it has never had a reason
to adopt. The plain fact is that college students are engaging
in premarital sexual relations. Students have rejected the standards which once made pre-marital intercourse sinful as transcribed in the fornication laws of this state.
The college must accept the premise that students do and will
engage in sexual activity and that there is no inflexible moral
judgement which can possibly be applied to such activity. The
newspaper believes that because the matter is of an entirely personal nature the student should be free to practice his own approach to sexual discovery without the puritanical shadow the
administration casts over him. Our moralists in residence should
harbor before all else, a realistic and progressive attitude toward sexual Nirvana.
The newly revised social code, containing an "open door"
policy, is not the correct approach to sexual freedom. If the college is afraid that its students will not be able to handle new
freedoms, it has only to refer itself to the record of the present
code.
We believe that the college might see it as advantageous to
institute a clcsed door policy without placing a time limit on living group hours. The conscious self-delusion our college has chosen will not only hurt its students, but defeat the role the college
claims to play in building a more humanistic world.
This weekend college officials should take a ride to Howard Johnsons and check the registration lists. For there only will
they see a group of truly satisfied students .Perhaps the college
needs to admit that students do commit the very acts of which the
administration would like to believe them incapable. As a case in
point, think how foolish and restrictive these policies will be if the
college establishes co-education.
Student Rights
The faculty subcommittee on the "Rights and Freedoms of
Students" is now in the process of completing its initial investigation into this document. From the outset it is admitted that the
most important and complicated issue to be discussed is that of
student discipline and due process. This newspaper, the Student
Council, and the Students for Democratic Reform have devoted a
great deal of time over the course of the year in presenting viable
alternatives to our antiquated .system. In addition, many professors
have spent time in drawing proposals to revamp the present system
of college life.
Students must be given the power, rights, and freedoms they
deserve in this society—for they do in essence constitute this society. The newspaper stands in ardent support of the documents
submitted to the committee by the SDR and Dr. Berkowitz. In addition to these recommendations, the newspaper wishes to offer
two other suggestions.
First, the creation of student boards, composed of honors students in every department, to make recommendations to the faculty on course changes and the hiring and dismissing of faculty
members. Second, the creation of a student admissions board, similar to the one instituted at Yale University, to aid the admissions
department in their selection of students.
B.W.
The Power Morass
by Rob Natelton
Dr. Berkowitz's letter to The Lafayette last week reiterated a call that
has echoed throughout universities
for centuries: the call for student
power.
The notion that students should
control their education was probably
most in accord with reality in the
medieval university. To be sure, the
institutions with younger students (as
at Paris) were faculty-controlled, but
the University of Bologna wa.s run
by a serious student body.
The system worked fairly well, but
it would be unwise to transport the
pa.st into our own day.
Medieval scholars, aware of the
rarity of their privileges, were, I
might conjecture, a trifle more conscientious than the average student
today. The average medieval lived little above penury, worked hard, and
paid the faculty directly.
But today most of us are paid for,
pampered, and relatively carefree.
A young man o r woman with little
experience and an overdose of idealism ( o r disillusionment) is often receptive to political, social, and moral
doctrines o f weird varieties.
Some o f these views come from
sheer frustration. Some are expansions of the dominant faculty view.
The New Left, for example, it in
may wayt a n extention of tome of
tbe more ttarry-eyed of the "Uberal"
conceptioni held by the majority of
faculty membert and tometimet made
dangerout by adoletcent revolt and
youthful zeal.
The record of ttudent power in thit
century it indeed tordid.
Administration concessions t o student racism, hate and cynicism
smoothed the path Hitler rode to
power in Germany and sapped t h e
will of the people t o resist in Poland.
And once in power, dictators often
find students delightfully malleable.
Consider the case of the University
of Mexico. Mexico is not exactly a
fascist state groveling before the
slavering advances of the U. S. imperialists.
But this makes little difference t o
the Communists and hate - mongers
who attend or frequent the institution and have used its autonomy for
such academic purposes as calling
strikes, putting thugs at picket lines,
and forcing a university president t o
resign at grun point.
Moreover Berkley showed that this
country is hardly immune.
The majority of stadents are n o t
by any means disruptive. But somehow ".student power" usually means
power for the activist minority that,
once tasting it, grows ever more radical, ever more domineering, ever
more totalitarian.

The question of whether or not
grades should be abolished at Lafayette, as raised in this publication two
weeks ago, is a deceiving one. It is deceiving because it grapples with what
is a real problem here, but then twists
it entirely out of shape bv pointing to
periferal effects rather than to root
causes. The distortion is compounded
by investing the hoped-for elimination
of grades with a disproportionate
weight—making it seem as if such a
step would take us a long way towards
Lafayette's academic millenium.
First of all, Yale University, the
most recent example of a school which
has allegedly abolished grades, has
not really done so. By substituting
"high pass," "pass," "poor." and "fail;;
for the conventional "A" through "F"
categories, they have done httle more
than eliminate the cumulative average.
This in itself is not an astoundmg development, nor one which will necessarily take the pressure off anyone. I
think we can be quite confident that
yesterday's "grade-grubbers" will be
aspiring for their "high passes" just
as relentlessly under the new system,
as they "grubbed" for their "A's" and
"B's" under the old framework. The
supposedly undesirable aura of academic competition, as far as I can see,
remains.
Secondly, it does not seem to be at
all clear that Lafayette's level of scholarship will suddenly shoot upwards a,

by ROBERT BECKER
(Robert Becker '69 is spending his
junior year abroad, and is presently
studying in Germany. Becker is vicepresident of the Class of 1969. Ed.)
Undoubtedly the most striking impresslon received upon initial contact
with the German higher educational
system is the tremendous emphasis
upon the old cliches "academic freedom" and "personal fulfillment" in the
academic venture. A s one who has
lately seen the effects of this emphasis
on the present system, I feel it an interesting area to discuss and analyze
—particularly in view of similar movements gripping Lafayette within the
past few semesters. I will be referring
m this analysis to the Federal Repubhe of Germany. My coniments, therefore, extend only to the bounds of that
educational system, having no first
hand experience within any other
European university.
Upon superficial appraisal Freiburg
Uniy/vTsity, situated in the southwestern corner of the Black Forest, appears to have a relaxed, almost nonchalent general atmosphere. Yet beneath this veneer there is a strange
dichotomy—a "culture" composed prim a n l y of steadfast conservatives and

American institutions, overwhelming
"decisional" power. The radicals to b^
expected, are in great part students,
supported by the younger professional
staff. The result of demands for liberalization and progress on both sides is
what the "learned," "entrenched"
teaching staff euphemistically refers
to a s "akademische Freiheit"—academic freedom.
In essence, what does this concept
mean? Absolutely nothing! Under it
one is required to take no particular
course, complete no requirement in
his field of study (except for a nominal two hours per .><eme3ter, which is
all too often overlooked hy the stu
dent—and never enforced by the administration), participate in nothing
and generally, can develop to be
nothing. Pressure of any proportion
in the academic realm is notably absent. One takes a s many or a s few

Draft Board Designates College Professor Greene Urges Harmony
For Janitorial Position In Lieu Of Service Between Man And Nature

WASHINGTON
(CPS) —
— Gen.
Gen.
Lewis Hershey has decided that the
Selective Service System can find a
better occupation for a history professor than janitor.
Noel Brann, a 30-year-old University of Maryland history professor,
who turned in his draft card last October, was to be assigned to do janitorial work at the University of Kansas by his Reno, Nev. draft board.
Stephen Crane
Holds Lecture
On Pop Sound
Edward Shaugnessey, instructor of
mathematics and Mrs. Marcy Lusardi
prpiented a lecture on the development of rock 'n roll to over fifty
students and faculty members at
Wednesday's Stephen Crane Society
meeting.
The lecture, entitled, "Rock 'n Roll
is Here to Stay," featured diagrams
of basic rules and rock structures
and phrasings, a history of the trends
in pop music, and several audio-visual aids, including two record players and a piano.
Exemplary records, from Ray
Charles to Moby Grape were used to
illustrate the various trends.
FRAGMENTED PARTY
Continued from Page 8
evacuation of several intellectuals
from Washington is only one indition of the present turmoil which is
brewing in the party. We are witnessing the deplorable spectacle of a supposedly liberal President executing an
undeclared war without having the
consen.sus of the public who must pay
for this venture in blood, sweat,
tears, and dollars. Criticism of the
war is becoming more heated and
echoes from the chambers of the
Senate Foreign Relations Committee
to college campuses.
Liberals, intellectuals, students, and
Negroes are adamantly opposed to
this war on essentially moral principles. President Johnson's attempts
to hold the wage line and limit overseas spending are not endearing him
to union members or consumers. Riots
and a cutting of poverty project funds
are osing him a significant sector of
the urban vote. Thus, we see a possible fragmentation of the diverse
coalition which has given the Democrats their almost unbreakable power hold on the Federal Government.
Can Johnson repeat Truman's feat
and be reelected against .seemingly
formidable odds? I believe that the
answer to this question ultimately depends upon the unknown Republican
nominee. The only way possible, so
far, for Johnson to lose is for Rockefeller to run against him. Since John.son is a libera! on dome-iti** matters,
only another liberal can defeat him.

MORNINGS AT SEVEN...AND
THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO
ABOUT IT
Any man who .says morning is the best time of day ia
either a liar or a meadow lark.
There is only one way to make morning enjoyable:
sleep till noon. Failing that, the very best you can do is to
make morning tolerable. This, I am pleased to report, ia
possible if you will follow three simple rules:
1. Shave properly.
By shaving properly I mean shaving quietly. Don't use
a blade that whines and complains. Morning being a time
of clanger and anger, use a blade that neither clangs nor
angs. Use a blade that makes no din on your chin, no
squeak on your cheek, no howl on your jowl, no rip on
your lip, no waves while it shaves. Use, in short, Personna
Super Stainless Steel Blades.
I have been shaving for 71 years (not too impressive
until one considers that I am 49 years old) and I am here
to tell you that the quietest blade I know is Personna. I not
only shave with Personna, but I also admire it. Old virtues reappear in Personna; old values are reborn. Personna is a modest blade, an undemanding blade. Personna
does not rasp and tug, yelling, "Hey, lookit m e ! " No, sir,
not Personna! Silently, respectfully, unobtrusively, Personna whisks your whiskers with nary a whisper. I t
shucks your soil and stubble without toil and trouble.
Why, you hardly know it's there, this well-bred Personna
blade, this paragon of punctilio.
Moreover, this crown of the blade-maker's art, thia
epitome of epidermal efficacy, is available both in Doubleedge style and Injector style. Do your kisser a favor: get
some.
Z. Breakfast properly.
I assert that a Personna shave is the best of all possible
shaves. But I do not assert that a Personna shave, bracing though it may be, is enough to prepare you for the
hideous forenoon ahead. After shaving you must eat an
ample breakfast.
"Take, for example, the case of Basil Metabolism, a sophomore at VM.I. Basil, knowing there was to be an inspection by the Commandant one morning, prepared by storing up energy. He recognized that coffee and juice woujd
not sustain him, so he had a flitch of bacon, a clutch of
eggs, a batch of bagels, a notch of ham, a bunch of butter,
a swatch of grits, a hutch of honey, a patch of jelly, a
thatch of jam, a twitch of pepper, and a pinch of salt.
With Eaton's Corrasable Bond Typewriter Paper, you
can erase that goof without a trace.
Not a telltale smudge remains. A special surface permits quick and easy erasing with an ordinary^pencil
eraser. For perfect papers every time, get Corrasable.
In light, medium, heavy weights and Onion Skin. In
handy 100-sheet packets and 500-sheet ream boxes.
At Stationery Departments.

Kissiah Hosts
An informal meeting with Herman
C. Kissiah, dean of student affairs, will
be held at the Marquis snack bar
Thursday at 4 p.m. The meeting is
designed to give students an opportunity to raise questions and discuss
problems with the dean.
THE POWER MORASS
(Continued from Page 8)
In view of this century's record,
why is there the demand that students
be the main power bloc in an iniititution?
The demand is probably based
largely on political expediency.
The same people who eagerly support the rights of students who protest the war entreatingly turn to the
administration to do something about
discriminatory fraternities (or any
fraternities at all, for that matter).
To be sure, a college should not be
a military camp. On some issues, undergraduate opinion should carry as
much weight as that of the faculty.
But students do not pay for their
education — their parents do. They
often do not assume legal responsibility for their actions — the college
does. They do not provide the most
important source of education — the
faculty does.
To assume that they are the rightful repository of all power is, on Dr.
Berkowitz's part, overly gracious; and
on the students' part, decidedly obnoxious.

''materialistic values in life." Greene
went on to say that we need to regain contact with eros and our physical origins.
"Western man," speculated Greene,
"will someday regain his relationship
with the earth by adopting some of
the values held by Eastern man."
However, he added "in regaining
these so called Pagan values . . . we
have a long way to go. This wide
gap between the East and West . . .
is being evidenced by the conflict
raging in Vietnam."

The idea was right; the quantities, alas, were not. When
the Commandant arrived, Basil, alas, was so torpid that
he could not raise his bloated arm in a proper salute. He
was, of course, immediately shot by a firing squad. Ibday,
a perforated man, he earns a meagre living as a collander
in Cleveland.

Leopards Edged By Pitt, Gettysburg;
Maroon Hurt By Inconsistent Effort
Lafayette's basketball squad seems
to have become addicted to the bad
habit of losing close games. The
Leopards (6-14) have won only two
of nine games in which the final outcome was decided by six points or
less.
Last week coach Hal Wissel's five
added Pitt and Gettysburg to its
growing list of "should have beaten"
teams. The Bullets edged Lafayette
66-61 at Gettysburg Wednesday
while the Panthers won 74-70 in Easton Saturday.
Miller scored again at :43, but
Pete Smith iced the game for the visitors with two clutch free throws to
make the score 73-68 at :23. Miller
scored two more and Tony DiLisio hit
a free throw to close out the scoring.
Miller High Again
Miller again was the big man on
the Pard offense. Playing forward
for the first time all year, the 6'1"
soph scored 18 points and grabbed 13
rebounds. Clements and Lefkowski
each had 13 points while DiLisio of
Pitt took game honors with 19.
Once more the game was lost at
the free throw line where Lafayette
made only 16 of 30 attempts to Pitt's
26 of 36. The Panthers shot almost
50% from the field with 24 of 49
while the Pards were 27 for 66.
The Maroon hope to end their four
game losing streak with a victory
over Bucknell at 8:15 p.m. tomorrow
in Alumni Gym.
Pards Blow Le»d
Lafayette's main problem is that
it cannot sustain an effort through
the full 40 minutes of a basketball
game. Wednesday the Maroon led 6159 with 2:51 left in the game. However, with big rebounder Ken Skillman fouling out at 2:13, Lafayette
lost control of the boards and Gettysburg went on to score seven straight
points to win the game. Four of these
points came on follow-ups to missed
shots and the other three were free
throws.
Lafayette had led by as much as
17-8 in the first half. But Gettysburg knotted the score at 28-28, and
the game remained close for the remainder of the evening.
Miller High With 17
Mike Miller paced Lafayette with
17 points. Skillman and George Lefkowski followed with 11 each. The
Leopards outscored their hosts from
the field, hitting on 22 of 74 shots
to Gettysburg's 21 of 58, but made
only 17 free throws to the Bullets'
24.
Saturday's game with Pittsburgh
was another example of Lafayette's
lack of consistency. The Pards, starting three guards and playing excellent
defense, roared to a stunning 8-0
lead with Lefkowski getting five.
Pitt, however, whittled away at the
lead with some deadly long range
shooting and finally overtook the
Maroon at 19-18 when Len Kalata hit
a turnaround jumper at 10:25. The
visitors upped their lead to 29-24 before Lafayette rallied to tie the score
36-36 at the half.
Mifsed Free Throwg Hurl
Actually, the Leopards should have
had the lead at halftime. With the
referees whistling fouls right and left,
Lafayette went into the one-and-one
situation only seven minutes into the
game. Making only ten of 20 first
half free throws, the Pards could not
take advantage of the situation. At
one point Lafayette missed five charity tosses in a row.
The Leopards were up and down
in the second half — or rather down
and up. The Maroon connected on
only three of 18 shots in the first
ten minutes of the half to allow Pitt
to take a 56-44 lead.
Pards Catch Fire
Then all of a sudden the Pards got
a hot hand, making 11 of their last
16 shots. Mike Miller drove for two
points at 2:30 to cut the margin to
68-66. Pitt substitute Steve Stevenson countered with three straight
points to give the Panthers a five
point lead in the final minute of play.
Frosh Five Bow
To Germantown
Powerful Germantown Academy
routed the Lafayette freshmen basketball team, 97-68, Saturday night. The
game marked the tenth loss of the
season for the Pards who have won
two.
Even though the frosh scored the
first bucket, the outcome of the game
was never really in doubt. Germantown came right back after the first
score and never relinquished the lead.
Germantown, 19-1, Too Strong
Strong, fast, and well-drilled Germantown, now sporting a 19-1 record, losing only to the Penn frosh, was
just too much for the Pards to handle as they built up an insurmountable 50-26 lead.
But in the second half, Lafayette
played inspired ball and was outscored
by only five points, 47-42.
Two very respectable offensive performances were turned in by forward
Ron Moyer who pumped in 17 points
and guard Ron Gremelspacher who hit
for 16.
Tomorrow night at 6:30 p.m. in the
Alumni Gym, the Pards come up
against the Penn frosh who may be
the stiffest competition of the season.

Trackmen Travel To Baltimore, Garden
Barnes 1:54^3 In Sun Meet;
Relay Third At Garden
Friday night at the Madison Square
Garden Invitational, the mile relay
team finished fifth and a hobbled Jon
Barnes finished flfth in the 1000 yard
run. In Baltimore Saturday night,
however, Jon equaled his season best
in the 880 yard run to place fourth.
Running its slowest time this year,
3:27.5, the mile relay team still managed to garner a third place behind
Catholic University and lona. Despite
the disappointing time, the team was
encouraged by the strong third leg
performance by sophomore Ed Whiteman. His 51.3 was the fastest of the
third leg splits in the race. The team,
consisting of "Chick" Galpin, Bill Flis,
Ed Whiteman, and Ed Reibman, is
looking forward to another shot at a
new record.
Barnes Suffers Tendon Trouble
Jon Barnes, running with tendon
trouble, also clocked his slowest time
of the season in finishing fifth in the
1000 yard run. Jon led at the 440 mark
in :58.1. His second 440 was :58.4 but
Jon dropped to fifth. The sore tendon
has restricted Jon from running the
last part of the race as he likes and as
he is used to. So far this week, Jon hsj
not suffered as much trouble from the
injury.
Barnes Fourth In Baltimore
Saturday night, Jon ran the half
mile in the Baltimore All Eastern Invitational Meet sponsored by the Baltimore Sun Times. Looking much
smoother there, Jon equaled his year's
best of 1:54.3. Once again Jon led at
the quarter in :56 seconds, but with 2i
laps to go Ed Schuder of Rutgers
passed him and Ed Zeminski of
Georgetown outkicked them both. Jon
managed to fight off Eamon O'Reilly
of Villanova, but Frank Tomco managed to catch him in the sprint.
Will Run In Albany
This weekend the same five men will
be running in the Capitol Track Club
Championships in Albany. In addition
to the usual relay, the members of the
mile relay team will be running in various individual events.

Need One Victory For Winning Year
Theta Delt Takes
Grapplers Down Bullets;
Season Record At 6 4
The Lafayette wrestling team
picked up its f^fth win of its last six
starts when it dumped the visiting
Bullets of Gettysburg College 23-8.
The Leopards built up an unbeatable
23-0 lead over the first seven bouts
and coasted the rest of the way to
their sbcth victory. The Maroon now
have a 6-4 record.
The match was highlighted by four
close bouts, two decided by riding
time. Jack McSherry, trailing 3-2 at
the end of the 160 pound bout, scored
two points riding time to pull out a
4-3 decision over Gettysburg captain
Bruce Young. Bruce
McDermott
scored two points on time advantage
to break a 3-3 tie with Mark Hazara
and gain a 5-3 victory.
Ream Wins on SUUing Points
At 137 pounds Barry Ream picked
up two stalling points in the third
period to defeat Tom Kardish 5-4.
John Bogar's second period escape

proved decisive at 152 pounds. Bogar
and his opponent Gene Kaln each
picked up two reversals in the third
period making the final score 5-4.
George Frisch, wrestling at 130
pounds, picked up the only fall of the
afternoon. He showed Russ Heaton
the lights in the third period after
building a 2-1 lead.
Leopard captain Bob Conti brought
his record to 8-1 as he wrestled to a
7-0 decision over feob Carmany. Conti
picked up a reversal, predicament,
penalty point, and two points time in
route to the easy victory. The other
Leopard to win was senior Bill Young,
who picked up a one-sided 5-0 decision
over Russ Romagna at 123.
Pat Naugle was the only Leopard to
lose, dropping a 6-3 decision to Mark
Fifer. Tom Triolo had been injured
earlier in the week and coach George
Azar decided to rest the undefeated
heavyweight giving the Bullets a forfeit
Frosh Down 21-16
Gettysburg won the preliminary
freshman match 21-16 in spite of giving up 10 points in forfeits.
The Leopards' next match is tomorrow when they journey to Albright With three matches remaining,
the Leopards need just one victory to
guarantee their first winning campaign since the 1959-60 team finished
5-4. A sweep of the three matches
would give the Leopards their best
wrestling record in 12 years.
Theta Delt completed its sweep of
paddleball championships Wednesday
night when nimble Don Garnar defeated his Phi Delt opponent in the
singles competition. The Theta Delt
win thrust Phi Delt into a playoff
with Phi Gam for second place.
Bowling Finals Progress
As was reported last week, the intramural bowling league champions
and runner-ups have been playing for
the overall championship.
As of Wednesday one set of the
finals was played and that was on
Tuesday. D.U. beat Kirby 1559-1459,
D.T.D. defeated Chi Phi 1514-1466, and
Sigma Nu trounced Soles 1629-1448.
Because the bowling championships
are determined by the total number of
pins, and not games won, no team
is out of the running yet. The other
two m a t c h e s are scheduled to be
played on Feb. 21, and 28.

Competition Incontestable
Leopard
Pause
BY JAY TAYIX>R
Sports Editor
The Lafayette student body
has indicated this year, as in
past years, a certain lack of
interest in our sports program
that could call to que.stion ita
supposed desire for a good
sports image.
1 sometimes wonder why the college is willing to invest huge sums of
money in a new sports complex when
the athletic contests now held on
campus are so poorly attended. Why
is the college planning an extensive
seating capacity for the new facility
when only a handful of bored escapees from academia are on hand for
an event to cheer(?) the Maroon on
to victory{!).
help produce a better effort by a
team. As it stands now, only when
there is a particularly exciting meet
or game, such as the Princeton match,
will the students wake up and attend
the event. They go not to support our
team as much as to see the more famous opponent. For this reason, any
support lent to the home team is
purely accidental. It's time that every
student begins to promote this college's athletic image by virtue of his
physical presence at sports events.
Until he demonstrates that he cares,
the Lafayette student should not expect the magical development of extravagant sports programs or successful teams.

In Meet
Things looked bad for the Leopards
after the first four events as they
trailed Syracuse 31-3. It was then that
Heuzey picked up five in the medley.
The one-two finish of divers Johnson
and Jay Taylor brought the score to
a somewhat more respectable 35-17.
From then on the Pards picked up
only seconds and thirds, but t h e r e
were several exciting performances.

Perhaps the college's determination
to pursue its sports building program
in spite of apparent student disinterest is based on an overwhelming preoccupation with the educational values of athletics. While this is no doubt
true in part, another realistic basis
for such determination is probably
the belief that a more attractive facility will draw larger crowds. I
would hope that starting tomorrow the
student body can show the administration that it doesn't need a new gym,
a bigger pool, or more luxurious
bleachers in order to support its
(earns.

In the Colgate meet Bogardus took
the only first place of the afternoon
for Lafayette as the Pards went down
76-28.
Bogardus' win came in the 100 yard
freestyle with a time of 53.7. He was
followed by Benson for the third.
Colgate set the pace for a Ip.nd that
would continue throughout tho meet as
they easily won the 400 yard niedlpy
relay in a time of 4:03.7. Thoy went
on to take first and second in the next
two events until Joel Russell stooped
the barrage with a second in the 60
yard freestyle.
Davidson Shines In Exhibition
The diving saw the d?but of freshman diver Jim Davidson in varsity
competition as he dove in exhibition.
His performance would have garnered
him a second had he been diving officially. Johnson picked up the second
though in a showing a little off the
pace of previous weeks.
Aside from the first place of Bogardus in the 100 yard freestyle, the
only remaining notable performances
were seconds for Simpson in the 200
yard butterfly. Bill Gosch in the 200
yard backstroke, and Jeff Tinsman in
the 200 yard breaststroke.
