Zagoria speaks about foreign policyby Bro. Patrick Carney

Imagine a headline saying “ U.S. pushes for Red China’s Admission to U .N.” Fantastic? Not according to Professor Donald Zagoria who sees this as possibly the best U.S. reaction to the current split between the Russians and the Chinese.

In his talk in the Library A uditor ium last night, Zagoria, a noted Sino-Soviet au thor ity and H u n te r College professor, discussed the history and rationale behind the conflict as well as the possible outcom es.

The professor began by a ttacking what he called popular myths which are used to explain the division in the Comm unist world. A mong these he num bered the idea tha t a lean Com m unist was more dangerous than a fat one, the fact o f a large com m on border between the two giant countries, the fact tha t the Chinese practice a “ p u re r” f o r m o f C o m m u n i s m ideologically speaking, and the notion that the Chinese are reckless.

To each o f these myths, the p r o f e s s o r o f f e r e d a counterexam ple . F or one thing, he said, the first tw o myths make it very difficult to explain why they would have waited so

long to take their present stand. Zagoria also pointed o u t tha t China has suppor ted num erous governm ents which were the very antithesis o f “ pure Marxism” when it suited their purpose.

As for the real cause, he cited

SiDonald Zagoria

a certain fear on the part o f the C om m unis t Chinese tha t the bettering o f U.S. - Russian relations could come only at China’s expense.

Eventually annexing Taiwan, removing threatening American pow er in Asia, and nuclear parity with the U.S. and the U.S.S R., which he holds to be three o f C hina’s main goals, would be hampered by the i m p r o v e d S o v ie t -A m erican relations. Fo r the first two,

China would need Russian support. The nuclear test ban and the non-proliferation treaty would certainly impede the third.

While the Soviet Union can see the deescalation o f the cold w a r resulting in fewer confron ta t ions, political gains such as the recognition o f East G erm any , and the weakening of NATO, the Chinese find even the s ta tus quo unacceptable.

A cording to the professor, Peking sees the United States as preventing the solution to a continu ing civil war begun over three decades ago by supporting the Nationalis t G overnm en t in Form osa. In supporting India and Japan , the U.S. is helping her tw o rivals fo r Asian L e a d e r s h i p . In add it ion ,

American military presence prevents Chinese expansion into neighboring territories.

But if Peking originally broke with Russia because o fAmerican-Soviet relations in the early ’6 0 ’s, Zagoria claims tha t the reasons have now changed.

He cites Mao’s CulturalRevolution to prove his point. Mao saw the danger o f a coming revolutionary decandence in China - a sort o f “ hardening of the ar teries” as he put it. He dou b ted the revolutionary c o m m it tm en t o f the y o u th who had no t had the experience in guerrilla warfare, and o f the governm ent which was becoming a bureacracy. Many were s p e a k i n g o f i n c r e a s i n g p rod uc t ion n o m a t te r what the ideological com prom ises.

Student reactions C O amendment

Poor response citedby Tom Bornholdt

Due to a “ poor s tudent response,” the projected S tudent Life Conference is being recon­sidered. This pessimistic verdict was given by S tudent Body President Phil McKenna yester­day.

The S tuden t Life Council assigned to McKenna, Fr. Shilts and Prof. Houck, the job er organizing a S tudent Life C on­ference. This conference was to be a weekend long series of discussions between all the m em ­bers o f the S tuden t Life Council and any interested students. The emphasis in these meetings was to be the transmission o f s tudent concerns, views, and ideas to the SLC. The discussions were going to cover a wide spectrum of topics.

In order to test the interest o f the student body in this confer­ence and the s tudent govern­ment in general, a let ter was sent o u t to all s tudents at the beginning o f the year. The letter asked for s tuden ts to mail any

opinions o r insights to e ither of the three organizers o f the S tuden t Life Conference.

“ The num ber o f replies has been quite d isappointing ,” ac­cording to McKenna. He claims tha t the to tal n um ber o f letters received by Fr. Shilts, Prof. Houck and himself is around thirty , and he found no imagina­tive suggestions in any o f them. McKenna said “ the them es d om ­inating most o f the letters were the tr ite issues o f the dining halls and the ineffective campus sec­urity guards, especially near the parking lots.”

Due to the poor response McKenna described the fu ture o f the S tuden t Life C onference as “ nebulous .” He said tha t Fr. Shilts, Prof. Houck and he were considering simply cancelling the conference altogether. A nother possible alternative would be one-day meetings on a single topic. McKenna said tha t he “ just d id n ’t know exactly what to do abou t this m a t te r .” He was also unsure o f how Fr. Shilts and Prof. Houck s tood on the issue.

by Tim TreanorFive no ted campus political

figures yesterday expressed divergent views on the proposed Selective ConscientiousObjection am en dm en t to the present draft law.

Political collumnist Chris Wolfe, called the proposed am en dm en t “ open to all sorts o f obvious abuses.” In a s ta tem ent last night, Wolfe said, “ It would be very nice if you could have s e l e c t i v e C o n s c i e n t i o u s O bjection , in the sense tha t it would be nice tha t we no t be confron ted with a decisionab ou t the morality o f a given war, but, o f course, we can ’t help but be confron ted . I th ink the exis tence o f a nation with global responsibili ties such as o a r s , would be seriously imperiled by such a law - particularly at this point inh i s t o r y . Defense againstaggression requires militaryforce.

“ Such a system o f selective conscientious ob jection would make it possible fo r segments of ou r popu la t ion to ignore their d u ty to defend their cou n try - a moral d u ty - since the law is open to all sorts o f obvious abuse. The motivations and sincerity o f a person is never open to a concre te test. There would be no way o f telling the true conscientious ob jec tor from the fraud.

O ff -c a m p u s commissioner

Bernie Ryan art iculated a radically different opinion in an interview yesterday af te rnoon . He called it a “ means towards completely eliminating the draft, and said further:

“ I agree w ith the am en dm en t

To him, the Soviet U nion was the living sym bol o f this threat. He saw revisionism as a m uch greater danger than imperialism, according to the professor.

How serious is the split? It is well know n tha t armed conflict has already taken place at the borders, bu t can it escalate?

P ro f e s s o r Zagoria gave evidence tha t it can by citing a recent article by a m em ber o f the Soviet police. It seems that m any Russian marshalls wish to strike a resolute blow now before China is b e t te r arm ed and before they would be accpeted in the U.N. As long as they are isolated, the generals feel they could be a ttacked with the least am o u n t o f d ifficulty and “ be taught a lesson.”

am e n d m e n t is a magnification o f the s t iuation you have now - a n u m b er o f insincere people claiming conscientious ob jec tor s ta tus simply to duck the draft. I t ’s obvious tha t there a r e

c ircum stances under which a

St. Mary prospectsT h e N o t r e D a m e

Vice-President’s Council an ­nounced yesterday tha t Saint Mary’s s tudents would be per­mitted to join the University Concert Band this year. The idea was subm it ted to the council by Band Director Robert O ’Brien who said he has felt for a num ber o f years that adding SMC girls to the Concert Band would greatly improve the B and’s performance.

With the approval o f the council, O ’Brien has now pre­sented the idea to SMC Music Chairman Dr. Willis Stevens. Stevens expressed suppor t for

the idea and indicated he would pass the proposal along to Sister Jean Acting Vice-President for Academic Affairs at SMC, for final approval.

O ’Brien was enthusiastic ab ou t the idea. “ I think i t ’s a very good idea. Having girls in the Band will certainly help us. For one thing, boys d o n ’t tend to play w oodw inds as m uch as girls and w e’ve always had difficulty in balancing the Band’s sound because o f it. I ’ve been watching all tha t talent across the street go by for a n um ber o f years now and I think i t ’s about time we used some of

it. I th ink it jus t may increase applications from Notre Dame to o .”

O ’Brien said he had had over 20 phone calls from girls already asking how to sign up for auditions. The first audit ions are scheduled for Dec. 9 th and 10th and O ’Brien said girls would be added to the Band immediately if the idea is approved by St. Mary’s.

The University policy s ta te­ment concerning the addition of the girls to the Concert Band emphasized tha t the proposal did not include the Marching Band o r the Varsity Band.

if it is no t looked upon as an end in itself. If we look at the am en dm en t as an end in itself we are merely limiting the existence o f the draf t, bu t in doing so we are jus tify ing the draft. Rather, the am end m en t must be looked upon as a means tow ards completely eliminating the draft. This is the primary issue. I d o n ’t believe an ou tr ight d em and to eliminate the draft would succeed. This is a practical means to eliminate the draf t, because it will allow those w ho would no t be issued conscientious ob jec to r status and therefore would subm it to the draf t a w ider range of alternatives.”

R y a n said tha t the am en dm en t was a very political measure and its success would depend on the disposit ion o f the three political circumstances - the progress o f the war, the progress o f the anti-war movem ent, and the decisions o f the supreme court on a Circuit c o u r t ’s ruling that an atheist could be given Conscientious O bjector status.

T om M urphy, head o f the Young A m e r i c a n s fo r F re e d o m , quest ioned the practicality o f such a law. In a s ta tem en t, Murphy said,

“ One o f the problems that would come up with a proposal as simple as the McCarthy

Art McFarland

m a n c o u l d s e l e c t i v e l y conscientiously object , so the present rules should be made to be more lenient, b u t the draft law m ust be more limited than the simple McCarthy p roposal.”

Murphy refused to predict Senate reac tion to the bill, but he expressed hope tha t o th e r lesiglation would proceed the bill to the floor.

“ I hope tha t a lo t te ry system and a volun teer army would be realized before the McCarthy am en d m en t ever gets to the floor. T h a t would be the best thing for the c o u n t ry ,” he said.

A f ro -A m e r ic a n President, A r t h u r M c F a r la n d , also expressed agreement with the proposed am endm ent .

“ F rom what I read in The Observer a bo u t the am end m en t, I’m basically in agreem ent with the proposal as it is w rit ten . I would th ou gh , like to see a bit more a bo u t it. I w ouldnt want it to s top right th e re ,” he stated.

When asked for his reason for suppor ting the proposal, he replied, “ I believe tha t the majority o f the wars tha t the United States engages in arc wars against colored people around the world. A lot o f black people object to it, because o f the type o f exp lo i ta t ion tha t goes on.

This type o f rule would effect blacks more than an yone else.”

Zagoria speaks about international

(co n tin u ed fro m page 1)On the o the r hand he

maintains th a t there are equally compelling reasdns why they might no t wish to get involved in an arm ed conflict. The fear a “ Soviet Viet N am ” might be the result o f getting in to an Asian land war. In add it ion , as things now stand, when Mao dies, there is a good chance tha t a new governm ent would p a tch up the differences. However, a fight would serve on ly to decrease this probabili ty .

Professor Zagoria said th a t in his hom e to w n o f New York, the D aily N ew s “ gleefully gives accounts o f the possibility o f w ar” be tw een the tw o Com m unist powers.

Is this really in the best interest of the United States? Zagoria th inks not.

Besides the danger th a t it could escalate to neighboring countr ies and possibly involve the U.S., he also po in ted ou t tha t if the U.S.S.R. con tinues to use force as in Czechoslavakia and succeeds, she will be reinforced in using force as a response to conflict.

With all this in mind, Professor Zagoria addressed himself to possible American reactions. O ne possibility would be to do nothing. However he sees this as disastrous pointing ou t th a t it was exactly the confidence tha t we would do no th ing th a t led to the s u p p r e s s i o n o f t h e Czechoslavakians.

Since th rea ten ing to cut off talks such as SALT or th e trade agreem ent discussions w ould be destroying som eth ing beneficial to b o th countr ies , Zagoria suggested an alternate approach .

He th inks th a t the U.S. should inaugurate a sudden change in i t ’s China policy. This would reinforce do u b ts as to w hat we would do in the event o f a major conflict. The professor th inks we should drop o u r oppo s i t io n and vote fo r Red C hina’s admission

. to the United Nations. In this way China would have a world fo rum in which to express itself. He also sees tha t possibility tha t

this would force Russia to oppose the admission.

In closing, he quo ted President K ennedy as saying, “ There are no pe rm an en t friends' in in ternat ional affairs, only perm anen t in terests” to which Professor Zagoria added th a t it is “ time to exam ine ou r policy with regard to those in terests.”

Tim MacCarryScab U.I write this as an a t tem p t to string together the change in the

cam pus political s i tuation , as I emerge from St. Joe Hospital today (Wednesday). What strikes me most is the apparen t semi-flop o f the dem ons tra t ion against GE recruiting yesterday , possibly because when I was last on campus, a week ago, the issue seemed likely to be a large and explosive one: for the first time 1 can rem ember, a careful rationale for a dem ons tra t ion had been circulated the previous week, showing how the university was in effect choosing sides between the striking workers who w anted all GE operations, including administrative activities like m anagem ent recruiting, to be s topped unti l they had a new contrac t , and the bosses who sought to maintain “ business as usual” .

Of course, with due respect to Bayard Rustin , three-quarters of ND’s Trustees are still officers o r directors o f large corpora tions, and the opera t ion o f the University can hardly be expected to normally run cou n te r to their august judgm ents and noble interests. So the recruiting was to go on. More leaflets went ou t, and the only response, it seemed, was Fr. Riehle’s “ I t ’s illogical!” and T h o rn to n ’s usual claim that it was all a m atte r o f free speech and personal decision.

I t ’s almost as if there w eren’t any struggle for a living wage, a class struggle, going on between workers and bosses. Or so the bosses, at Ge and Notre Dame, and their adm inis tra t ions would have us believe. Just a question o f free speech, folks, noth ing to get excited over. So fewer s tuden ts showed up than at any left-wing d em ons tra t ion I can recall at ND in three years. Quite an accom plishm ent at a university, am ong the great universities, know n for its s tu d en ts ’ apa thy to moral questions when applied to their own involvement in social injustice. But le t’s work o u t the calculus o f what this means in terms more appropr ia te to the Notre Dame man - it seems th e re ’s been a con tes t , and little d ou b t tha t in such a battle there are winners and losers, no t jus t on the field o f action but also am ong those who had a stake in the game:

WINNI NG POINTS go to the G ood Guys: the Placement Bureau, Fr. Riehle, and all the s tudents w ho signed up for interviews, as well as the interviewer himself. Workers at GE and elsewhere might label them “ strike-breakers” and “ scabs” respectively, and west coast college s tudents and visiting workers may have kept “ str ikebreaking” opera t ions from going on during last spring’s California Standard Oil strike, but . . . ho hum, we are for f reedom and all tha t here in this Christian University, and strikes and wars ahd hum an suffering and conflict d o n ’t really affect us much here anyw ay, do they? Like the engineering s tudent said, there a in ’t n o th in ’ strange abou t a strike, and they can ’t be starving, can they?

LOOSING POINTS to the Bad Guys: CPA people, including myself, who called for the d em ons tra t ion , especially those who worked hard to build it, and the dem ons tra to rs themselves. They should have know n be tte r than to th ink ND men might see a moral issue here, o r sym pathize wi th men on strike for the right to have normal con trac t negotiations and a decent wage (GE has refused to bargain). They should have know n that only raw self-interests, the prospect o f gratification, firings them ou t in large nimbers-panty raids, pep rallies, even Moratorium Day (Vietnam is a th rea t to career plans, and the M oratorium is very m uch the thing to do nowadays).

WINNI NG BETTORS: (1) right wing propagandists and the “ respectable” media men who contend tha t s tuden ts like dem ons tra t ions for their ow n sake o f for power over the [university. They might have been shown wrong had a mass dem ons tra t ion which workers would have unders tood , taken place. (2) ND administrators, whose organizational machinery trains bureaucrats, managers, and technicians for the corpora te organism, feeding them through the Placement Bureau; also GE adm inis trators whose jobs depend on their not making noise like those nasty union men do. Business as usual goes on. (3) Bosses, owners and officers o f the great corporations, the ruling class: especially GE but also ND (yes, , Trustees hold ti tle to this blessed proper ty) . An alliance ot s tudents and workers might bring them d ow n , cut into profits, bu t they can sleep well fo r now.

PAY UP LOSERS: (1) ND s tudents and faculty - unruffled consciences might have been d is trubed by a serious challenge to their Ins ti tu tion’s G ood In tentions, Neutrality , Impartiality, and Objective Concern for t ru th and human welfare. (2 ) American workers, particularly 147,000 striking GE men. They would have appreciated an action that said s tuden ts cared abou t them , and were willing to make com m itm en ts to back it up.

The same s tudents who saw no po in t in giving a hand in the class struggle will probably w onder why workers see little sense in their middle-class antiwar protests and liberal wails abou t the evils of racism. But then agains, perhaps s tudents will grow up, get together w ith 'w orkers , and the peop le ’s day will come. Someday.

| Social Commission holds survey students to vote for favoritesThere will be a concert survey

in the dining halls tonight to determ ine the reaction o f s tu d e n t ’s to a list o f 25 rock groups. Dave Veechi, S tudent Union Social Commissioner, explained the purpose o f the survey, and com pared it to the one held in the spring o f last year.

“ At th e time we ran last year’s survey several o f the concert dates were already determ ined. It did serve to substan tia te sereral o f the choices tha t we made. The only concert we b ooked af ter tha t was the Chambers Brothers. They were seventh on a list o f eleven tha t we were trying to get. Blood Sweat and Tears was no t very strong on the survey, b u t their concert did real well. T h a t makes it hard, because tastes do change. You can’t depend on the survey enti ely,. You have to use you r own judgem ent sometimes. This

survey is going to carry qu ite a bit o f weight. F o r Mardi Gras we expec t to see which group to go for, and p u t all ou r effort in to gett ing it. If this works ou t well we may run one later to see s tu den t reaction to social func t ions in general. This can be done very easily with the new m ethod we use .”

V e e c h i d e s c r ib e d the mechanics o f the survey. C o m pu te r pu nch cards will be handed o u t , along with the special pencils needed to mark them . S tuden ts will be asked to indicate one o f fou r choices for each group. The quest ion asked is, “ If ( ) came to NotreDame for a concert would you 1) Definitely a t ten d 2) Probably a t te n d 3) Probably no t a t ten d 4) Definitely n o t a ttend .

Moratorium

What happens in Washington for the next three days could dictate w hether or not American society polarizes fu r ther and eventually splits right down the middle

The picture tha t people have painted o f the Moratorium activities isn’t very bright. The Pentagon has prepared the machinery o f the armed services in case violence arises. The arguments against issuing a parade perm it for a walk down Pennsylvania Avenue centered around alledged threats o f an assault upon the White House. Moratorium leaders have spoken o f impending violence and Notre Dame and St. M ary’s students were briefed at a meeting last week abou t the items to bring which would aid them if they were physically assaulted by police.

This country is beginning to develop a protest mania - an insane mentality that dictates tha t people must take sides in every p ro test, th a t the protestors are up against the police, that it is “ us” against “ th e m ” at every step.

The question o f the Vietnam War was forgotten a long time ago. Sometime between the death o f Senator Robert Kennedy and the end o f the Democratic Conventin people forgot how to talk abou t how to end the war and began to wage a different king o f battle on the home front. It was the protestors against the system, the anti-war people against the president, the peacecongressmen against the doves, and finally the silent majority against the vocal m inority . Each jockeying for position, each jockeying for support. Each one working to garner bigger and be t te r signs o f visiblesupport from the “ peop le” for their positions - position which we believe neither side has articulated very clearly.

So what does ti all mean? Very simply, if the American people let their em otions cloud rational decisoons on the co u n try ’s Vietnam policy we no t only will be servercly hindering our chances o f getting ou t o f the war bu t will also be endangering our very survival as a nation. If there is marked violence in Washington it may be the last anti-war protest or at least the beginning o f an entirely new type of protest, one th a t can n o t take place w ithout violence.

The “ silent m ajority” is primed now, primed to organize in active support o f the president. Full page adds have been taken ou t in city newspaper after city newspaper. Money has started flowing in to the coffers o f American Legion Posts and “ Love Am erica” groups around the nation. If violence erupts in Washington you can be sure that there will be a reaction. One louder than Spiro Agnew’s tirade after O ctober 15. It w ou ld n ’t be a good thing because if you look at those people - the active, silent m ajority - you can tell what they are going to dem and. They will ask for the government and police to make sure th a t fu ture protests d o n ’t get o f f the ground. It ano ther is organized, you can be sure that they will probably be ready to take an active part in seeing tha t it doesn’t take place. When tha t happens it will be the beginning of the end.

Both the silent majortiy and the vocal m inority have made errors which have helped to polarize this country . Both sides have spokesmen who have made rash s ta tem ents that have p rom oted division instead o f unity. We hope tha t America may no t suffer as a result.

We hope tha t violence does no t take place in Washington. We hope fu r ther that m em bers o f the Notre Dame and St. Mary’s C om m unity will no t allow themselves to be drawn into the m ood o f irrationality tha t is prevading the country . It is tragic enough th a t many Americans have decided tha t it is a p ruden t thing to fight among themselves w ith o u t all o f us helping to push America to the po int where it splits apart. G.D.S.

SMC representatives

The au thors o f Monday n ight’s S tudent Affairs s ta tem ent requested a reaction and they received one, one which has shocked and disappointed them we feel, rightfully.

The St. M ary’s students have told them tha t they are totally ineffective representatives. The s tudents reason to this conslusion by asserting tha t their opinion, even their interest, has at no time this year been actively sought by these members. This m anner o f reasoning is illogical and invalid, for we are o f the opinion tha t the s tuden ts’ premise is incorrect.

The s tudents feel tha t in the representative-constituent relationship the form er is the active factor, the latter, the passive. In actuality, the reverse is true.

A representative mirrors the thoughts o f his consti tuent; his function is merely to im plem ent the ideas they give him. He is simply their voice and his efforts are to be devoted to the clear and effective voicing o f their wants. Nothing more.

In this relationship, then, it is the task o f the consti tuent to actively supply his represen tatives with ideas and to actively see that they are carried out.

In any relationship, particularly one involving student representation, responsibility lies with bo th parties. While some criticism can be justly directed at the leaders, the main burden lies with s tudents w ho sit dorm ant in apa thy and pass the buck to others.

We urge the s tudents to accept their responsibility now by speaking with their representatives and, as they asked Monday night, to tell them the direction that the s tudents want S tuden t Affairs to take. We urge them , also, to continue to speak ou t on issues, because, w hether or not they like it, they are responsible for everything they get.

Major d em ons tra t ions will take place on N ovem ber 13-15. ( a ) A n o t h e r nation-wide M oratorium sponsored by the V i e t n a m M o r a t o r i u m C om m ittee , November 13 and 14; (b) a national S tudent Strike against the war sponsored by the S tu d e n t M obiliza tion C o m m ittee to E nd the War in Vietnam ( “ S tuden t M obe” ), November 14; (c) A March Against Death in Washington D C., November 14-15, and mass rallies in Washington and San Francisco, November 15, all sponsored by t h e N e w M o b i l i z a t i o n C o m m ittee to E nd the War in Vietnam ( “ New M obe” ).

It is im p o r tan t to unders tand tha t these are no t true peace dem onstra tions . Each one is a part o f the Fall Offensive Against the War in Vietnam agreed u p o n by the three above-named groups and SD S last summer. These fou r groups coopera ted to build th e O ctober I 5 M o r a t o r i u m Dayobservances which were all a part o f the Offensive, and have been working together on the up-coming demonstrations .

The three sponsoring groups all dem and an im mediate , com ple te and undondit ional pullout o f all U.S, forces from Vietnam. The purpose o f these dem ons tra t ions is to achieve this.

What these groups stand for, in o the r words, is “ thenightmare o f the entire n a t io n ” o f South V ie tn a m , to use the words o f President Nixon in his N ovember 3 Adress. What they are really advocating, despite their pious words abou t peace, is a rep e a t—on a m uch largersc a le - o f what the President described as “ the massacre” tha t too k place last year when the Viet Cong m urdered 3,000 civilians during their briefoccupa t ion o f the city o f Hue and fifteeen years ago when, as t h e prr-c ider t s t a te '1 the

C om m unists m urdered 50,000 N orth Vietnamese.

The so-called “ March Against D ea th ” is actually a March FO R D eath because it is sponsored by t h e basically Com m unist organization to serve a Com m unist purpose in V ietnam tha t would bring death to un told thousands. Each m archer is to carry a sign with th e name o f an American w ho died for freedom in V ietnam and call o u t the name o f th e deceased as he marches. These marchers should tell the full s to ry o f each man killed by adding to their signs and their chan t these words: “ K ILLED by COM M UNISTS” .

The N ovem ber 14 S tudent Strike is actually a S tr ike fo r R evo lu tio n and C om m unism . J. Edgar Hoover testified on April 17 o f this year th a t the sponsor o f the strike, th e S tudent Mobilization C o m m ittee , “ is Controlled by m em bers o f the Y ound Socialist Alliance, the y o u th group o f the Socialist Workers Pa r ty .” The Socialist Workers Party (SWP) is the party o f the Tro tsky is t C om m unists in this country and has been cited as subversive by the A tto rney General.

What does the Young Socialist Alliance (YSA) stand for? Read w hat one o f its ow n mem bers, Jose R udder , says. R u dd er is an ex-serviceman who formerly belonged to th e Com m unist P a r ty ’s y o u th group , the Dubois Club, and was also a m em ber of the C om m unis t Party itself. He left them , he says, “ greatly disil lusioned abo u t the whole lef t .”

R em em b er: V ietnam isC o m m u nism ’s War— n o t N ix on ’s war. The revolution th a t Jose R udder w ants in the U.S.A. is the revolution the Vietcong have launched and pre fighting in South V ie tn a m - w ith the help o f N orth Vietnam , Peking and Moscow.

marchers d o n ’t influence GSMFATHURSDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1969

Pseudo -by Larry Overlan

The upcom ing M oratorium and many o f the protests o f the past have one thing in com m on. Many o f the people who are marching canno t explicate their reasons for objecting to the war. F o r many of the dem ons tra tors the chant “ End the War” is the only way they can express themselves. Factual in form ation and deductive reasoning are usually no t bedfellows to these representatives o f the “ vocal m inor i ty . . ’

The condem ning o f policy by many s tudents because the President’s name is Nixon or because “ Capitalism needs a good war every so o f t e n ” is more fr ightening for its blatant ignorance than the War itself. All criticism should be constructive and offer different solutions with factual in form ation to back it up. T oday the policies are rejected too quickly and w ithou t reason sound reason tha t is.

T o o many times people are swept by the tide o f protest and claim that they too are fo r o r against “ the Cause.” The think to do now to be “ in” is to join the Crusade to Washington and show the Administra tion the feelings o f the “ im puden t snobs” . The point I wish to make here is tha t I do suppor t the M oratorium but I d o n ’t suppor t all those I see marching in these rallies. Many if no t most o f these “ aware and concerned” people canno t defend their viewpoint agaist a m em ber o f the opposite cause. Safety in num bers works in these marches since only the gif ted linguists are heard.

The most recent example o f this au tom atic condem na tion o f the “ E stab l ishm ent” was in President N ixon’s speech o f Nov. 3. Very few people who are against the War could actually point ou t the flaws in the speech. As one girl said after listening to the speech “ his face tells me he isn’t telling the t r u th .”

Without disputing the merits o f physiognomy, perhaps I might enlighten my friend and a few o thers o f some o f the rebutta ls to be used in condem ning President N ixo n ’s policy:

“ The Great Silent Majority o f Fellow A m ericans” (or GSMFA as Art Buchwald refers to them ) may n o t be a majority depending on how y ou look at it. On Oct. 31, 44% o f the American public were in favor o f a unilateral cease fire and 44% were opposed. But the facts which N ixon used were 57% o f the

nation were against im m ediate withdrawal and only 36% in favor.

By using the la t te r statistics the President felt justified in carrying ou t the wishes o f the GSMFA.

The Pres iden t’s prime p ro o f fo r ou r no t pulling o u t o f Vietnam immediately was the Massacre o f Hue. During the Tet offensive, 3 ,500 South V ietnamese civilians were first captured and then m urdered . This is only a half t ru th because the reason for these mass murders was no t simply sadistic tendencies on the

part o f the Comm unists . The reason was tha t the Allies began to re tu rn to this area and the VC “ panicked and killed o f f their p risoners” ra the r than let them re turn to the o th e r side. Now if there were no “ O th e r” side and if there were no Americans, there probably would have been no wholesale slaughter.

The “ collapse o f con f iden ce” argum ent is o u t and the President should have know n be tte r . The New Y our Tim es survey showed “ a growing ind ifference” around the world to the V ie tnam War. As the Paris talks began, the bom bing o f N orth V ie tnam stopped , and as we gradually w ithdraw criticism is gradually “ becom ing less shrill’, a round the world. Conclusion: ‘G overnm ents , opposi tion leaders, intellectuals and plain citizens in fr iendly and neu tra l countr ies want to see the War ended as soon as possible .”

Finally, a point th a t was particularly distasteful was N ix on ’s implication th a t President Kennedy would no t w ithdraw in the same situation. On August 24, 1 963 John Kennedy said “ in the final analysis, it is their war. They are the ones w ho have to win it or lose it We can help them , we can send them equ ipm ent, we can send o u r men as advisors, bu t they have to win it the people o f V ie tnam .”

T here are m any o the r po in ts in the speech which are equally fallacious - such as the free elections in South Vietnam and N ixo n ’s co m m it tm e n t “ to be true to my oath o f o ff ice’. - b u t 1 only w anted to show how the speech itself can be proved wrong with bu t a li tt le research. This makes all th e difference in the world however when y o u are con fro n ted by a m em ber o f the GSMFA. R em em ber, som etim es you have to speak loud and clear to overcome the d is tractions o f th e television and th e b o t t le of Budweiser which are the G S M F A ’s best friends.

Marilyn BeckerPre- D C.

We were reflecting, yesterday, on the general state o f downess prevalent this week. We had even briefly decided to write a colum n on it, a celebration of downess so we could recognize the upness when it came.

But apparently upness got the jum p on us; last night, or ra ther in the small hours o f yesterday m orn , a tr ip to Washington landed in o ur lap. And now w e’ve got a dow n o f a d ifferent sort.

We can handle the usual midsemester downs. You know the kind: y o u ’re abo u t to FA a seminar class, y o u ’ve got tw o papers and a test all due the same week, y o u ’re having argum ents w ith everyone y o u ’ve ever known, yo u r friends all have problems and need yo u r sym pathy and advice, y o u ’re ou t o f m oney , you need sleep, and on top o f it all, it rains. Anyone in college has learned to handle that.

But a dow n when you should be up: th a t ’s a dow n o f a different sort. On the face o f the matter, a trip to Washington is one great up. The O c tob er f i f teen th Moratorium was a good experience. It was non-violent, it was positive (m ostly ) in tone, it was fr iendly and peaceful, and it helped us form, one way o r the o ther , a few convictions. An up , right? O n the strength o f the convictions we clarified in o u r own mind, we decided to go to Washington this month .

But this m o n th the scene might have changed. T here are rum ors o f violence springing up all over. We heard a rep o r t o f bombings ostensibly in suppor t o f the non-violent M oratorium yesterday on the news. People bombing buildings for peace: th a t scares us.

The National G uard is ou t; well, okay, we expected that. There are a lot of people converging on one place to talk about som ething in which they believe strongly; th a t ’s au tom atically a tense

•situation. O kay, we expected that , too. But the more they talk, the more it begins to sound like Chicago Revisited. And we d id n ’t expect that at all.

So today brings the big down. Exactly why are we doing this thing; Why did we want to go anyway, when we d id n ’t think we’d ever find a way to D C ? And why, when we found one, did we take it? Why are we landing in Washington tom orrow night?

We wish we could say, in one coherent paragraph. It would make it alot easier, for ourselves, our friends, ou r parents back home. But i t ’s impossible; the

situation is still too ambiguous to be sum ­med up.

You see, i t ’s no t so m uch th a t w e’re anti-Vietnam; w e’re more, if forced in to a label, pro-peace, ' n d , alas fo r our radical friends, we almost agree with Mr. Nixon when he talks o f how to end the war. True, he might go a litt le faster, push a litt le harder, concede a litt le more. But he is the President; th e re ’s only so much concession you can logically expec t from a head o f state. I t ’s still cloudy in our mind, but we sym pathize with him. We sym pathize with the men who are dying, too .

Feeling as we do, why do we go to dem ons tra te? We go to make ou r co m m it tm en t for peace, because th a t is what we do believe in, a refusal o f war and a personal (universally personal?) co m m it tm en t to peace. But w o n ’t our very presence as one more body to be coun ted as an anti-war d em ons tra to r m ake ou r co m m it tm e n t in a sense a lie? Will an yone w onder what we, personally, are doing there? Will we become violent by association, should violence break out?

Maybe, in fact probably , we will, at least in the minds o f those watching that day. But, sitt ing here on the eve o f whatever may happen in Washington this week, it seems tha t , if we w ant a non-violent M oratorium like tha t one in O ctob er this week in Washington, there is only one constructive course to take. We ourselves can do only one thing, really, to make this a peaceful day: take this one non-violent person to Washington and make her add her bit.

There is, o f course, always the possibility tha t w e’re going because i t ’s the thing to do, because w e’re curious, because we’ll have an interesting ex ­perience, or because i t ’ll con tr ibu te to our “ artistic g ro w th .” (Pom pous phrase!)

Maybe, bu t the more we think abo u t it, the more we think “ Maybe n o t . ’. We hope (we pray?) w e’re going because we feel a co m m it tm en t to peace. We hope w e’re going because we feel we have to. We hope we feel tha t way when we come back.

Whatever you th ink abo u t this, it has helped us get a few thoughts straight, even through the incoherence. We hope som ething, any th ing we said helped you, to justify the time you spent reading it. And for your patience wi th confusion, thanks. The Morningglory Brigade

An evening of folkby Mike Kelly 0

This Friday night, November 14, at 8 :30 p.m. there will be a free folk concert in the L aF ortune S tudent Center. Al­though th e Social Commission has agreed to pay for public ity , the concert is a result o f the fact tha t tw o N otre Dame enterta iners, T om Connolly o f the Au­thentically M aerrywhethre and Joh n Fonseca o f the Morningglory Brigade, felt like having an o th e r concert like the one they had th row n for F reshm an O rien­tation. T hey con tac ted as m any o f the o the r musicians as they could get ahold o f on short notice , the Social Commission and the C on tem porary Arts Festival offered their assistance and once again it was d em ons tra ted tha t good times are to be had, no t bought.

The first free folk festival had an emphasis on individual perform ers and presented over tw en ty separate acts. The festival Friday will emphasize some o f the groups th a t have played at N otre Dame. The Morningglory Brigade will be one o f the featured groups. Originally form ed by ND and SMC students during their S ophom ore Year Abroad in Angiers, the Brigade has tou red in F rance and G e r m a n y , as well as more recently t h r o u g h o u t the Midwest.

It is no t y e t certain w hether the Authentically M aerrywhethre will be able to perform Friday because T o m Connolly had to fly to Nashville early th is week and might no t be back in time. If they do go on it will be the first time this year the Maerrywhethre will have publically per­form ed on campus, (n o t including their

perform ance at the cast par ty o f We B o m b ed In N ew Haven, at which they b rought dow n the house) and those fans o f dow n-hom e banjo p ick in ’ are eagerly awaiting C onn o lly ’s re tu rn . The M aerrywhethre ( including Rich Meehan, T o ny DelFavero and th e no to r iou s Denny “ Seg Willy” Williams) recently re tu rned from taping tw o appearances on the Hollywood-based “ All American College S how ”

Biff and Shirley G albra i th will be back at N otre Dame fo r those cou n try music fans. Biff and Shirley have played the coffeehouses here last year and were a popula r act at all o f last y ea r ’s folk festivals.

Friday will also be the firse time the cam pus as a whole will be able to see a new bosa nova group th a t has been long in the making. The Soft Pcrsuasian, featuring G reta Anderson, Barbara Treis and Dave H uezo with percusion backup by Jo h n Fonseca, promises an evening o f gently latin music.

N or will th e individuals be neglected. P a t C l i n t o n , t h e c a m p u s ho o tch iek oo tch ie man and local muskie-catcher, will be there with harp and guitar. R ick H om an, w ho has been seen o f late dancing over the Nashville skyline while wearing boo ts o f Spanish leather, will be doing a set and the magic fingers o f Paul Guernsey will again be unleashed on the unsuspecting public while J im Moran a t tem p ts to re-create his “ Big Mama” T h o r to n im persona t ion on stage.

Editor:I w ould like to raise a couple

o f quest ions on an issue th a t was passed over very quickly , th a t of selection o f the s tuden t representatives on th e S tudent Affairs S ubcom m it tee o f the Board o f Trustees. This was briefly m entioned at T u esday ’s senate meeting; Phil McKenna m en t ioned in passing w ho exac t­ly the representatives would be, b u t the Senate certainly had no voice in th e m atter . T o the best o f m y knowledge, Mr. McKenna decided on the four people and presen ted them to the S tuden t Affairs Subcom m ittee . It would seem to me tha t since we are choosing people to represent the entire undergradua te s tuden t b ody , th e senate, these represen­tatives should have some voice. T hey did not.

Secondly , earlier in the year, Mr. McKenna said th a t he th o u g h t since he could represent all m em bers o f the undergra­d ua te c o m m u n ity excep t blacks, Mr. MacFarland should be one o f the members. It m ay very well be true th a t Mr. McKenna can no t represent the black m inori ty , b u t I have serious d o u b ts w hether Mr. McKenna could represen t the In ternat ional S tudents . In fact, I th ink he might have serious problem s representing an yb od y who doesn ’t th in k like him.

In conclusion, I believe first th a t Mr. McKenna should no t

Trustee reputa tion

Editor:Lately, there has been much

talk regarding the Board o f T rus­tee ’s objections to the a lteration o f parietal hours.

His reason fo r this action w ould be to uphold the “ good re p u ta t io n ” of N otre Dame. I have come to the conclusion tha t this view is shared by th e m ajority o f the alumni, to o . I feel th a t it is time som ething was said regarding this a t t i tude .

The first po in t I would like to make concerns the te rm “ good re p u ta t io n .” The w ord “g o o d ” is purely subjective. If one consid­ers segregation o f the male and female good, then N otre Dame has a good reputa tion . On the o ther hand , if one considers good th e more norm al s i tuation o f males and females being and growing together, th e n N otre Dame has a p o o r repu ta tion .

him, should realize is tha t Notre Dame will never be w hat it was yesterday o r tw en ty years ago. Nothing, no t even their glorious N otre Dame, remains static if it is to live on in a changing world.

T o d ay ’s college s tuden t has a great desire for g row th th rough freedom. A hackneyed phrase used by adults referring to the younger generation is, “ They d o n ’t know w hat they w an t .” This is absolutely right. But, one thing they do know is th a t they do n o t w ant to be to ld what to want. They do no t w ant to have o th e r s ’ values inflicted on th em ­selves. S tudents o f today merely desire the freedom to choose for themselves w hat is good.

I have always th o u g h t tha t educa t ion was m eant to develop the mind. Cardinal Newman writes in his The Idea o f a U niversity, tha t the func t ion o f university learning is to “ . . . educate the intellect to reason well in all matters, to reach o u t tow ard tru th , and to grasp i t .”

If N otre Dame is as great a university as its repu ta t ion im­plies then it should be able to accomplish the objectives sta ted above. If the University o f Notre Dame can do so, then each s tuden t will be able to decide for himself his o w n way o f living w ith ou t absurd restric tions im­posed by a rich m an ’s p e t ty convictions and suspicions.

Peace paradox

Editor:It strikes me as very paradoxi­

cal tha t , in a university where seemingly everyone is an avid p rop on en t o f peace and o f living in harm ony w ith o n e ’s neighbor, hardly a weekend passes w ithout some act o f violence. In the past two weeks there have been at least fou r major racial con fro n ta ­tions, each resulting in at least one person being injured. I am aware o f at least three cases since the beginning o f school of girls being sexually molested. And the am o u n t o f purposeless destruc tion which takes place every weekend as tounds me.

I would th ink tha t an outsider looking at the University as a whole would find a very puz­z l i n g si tuation. One where w h i t e s c a n n o t l ive w i t h blacks-o'r blacks w ith whites; where a girl is no t safe to walk alone, o r even w ith others; where d runk en s tuden ts push cigarette machines d ow n stairs, th row rocks th rough dorm ito ry windows, and slash car tops. And yet it was this same Univer­sity tha t , jus t tw o weeks ago, voiced so loud an ou tc ry against those who refuse to live in

peace, to love their fellow men.I for one can find no way to

reconcile the ac tion and the philosophy, b o th o f which seem to be prevalent here. But then again, I am only a freshman.

Miss representationEditor:

It seems tha t we should reply to Jeanne Sw eeney’s colum n which appeared in The Observer on Wednesday, N ovem ber 12, no t in self-defense bu t perhaps to explain tha t Miss Sweeney sought to establish a very valid point. We are n o t representative o f the St. Mary’s s tuden t body , as Miss Sweeney po in ted o u t - neither are the o th e r “ represen­tatives” who this year have func t ioned in th e S tud en t Af­fairs channel. We are no t repre­sentative because we do not conceive o f the posi t ion o f a representative as one o f a com ­p u te r which efficiently tallies s tuden t o p in io n—nor, we might add, have m ost s tu den t officials in the past. This is no t a direct dem ocracy, else we should sim­ply take campus votes on any issue and the voting majority should establish the ou tcom e. We do, however, wis i to reflect s tuden t feeling o n the general direction the S tu d en t Affairs channel should take. Herein lies the problem.

The S tuden t Affairs channel was established as an ordered process fo r the evaluation and possible change o f regulations (S tuden t G overnm ent was e s ta b ­lished with the same premise). The difficulty is tha t this func­tion is no longer e s se n t ia l - th e rules on cam pus are no longer stifling and repressive. T here­fore, we seek a new direction and we tu rn to the s tudent b o d y —and the reaction we are confron ted w ith is th a t we haven’t done anything this year. This we in terpre t as a reference to the fact tha t we haven’t changed any ru le s -w h ic h we grant. However, we also in ter­pre t this as an ind ic tm ent tha t we haven’t achieved anything No, we only struggled for two m on th s so tha t college policy would be one o f “ no h o u rs” which a paren t may modify (i.e. the parental permission card) ra ther than policy being one o f hours which the parent may liberalize. We only established a procedure for the im plem en ta­tion and en fo rcem ent o f hours and sign-out so tha t the usual chaos would n o t ensue from a transit ion to a different system. We have only been rebuffed on efforts to discontinue the $.10 shuttle-bus fare ( “ St. M ary’s

It seems tha t Miss Sweeney, and others, missed the more im portan t actions o f the S tuden t Affairs channel.

Question o f directionEditor:

In reaction to Jeanne Sween­ey’s colum n o f N ovem ber 1 2, we feel tha t she has missed the point. The reason for the suspen­sion o f S tu d e n t Affairs meetings is to de term ine the d irection in which S tu d en t Affairs is going. F o r the past fo u r years, since S tuden t G overnm ent was initi­a ted , its main func t ion has been changing the restrictive rules o f this campus. We have com e to the po in t where we have elimin­ated most o f the past dissatisfac­tion in the social areas. As a result more emphasis on change has shifted to the academic sphere. S tu d en t Affairs must decide where its role lies or if one exists in the social realm. Perhaps more legislation should be left solely up to each o f the halls. Perhaps we should elimin­ate the large num ber o f s tudents on the S tu den t Affairs C o m m it­tee (s tudents ,< and m em bers o f the faculty and adm inis tra t ion make up this com m ittee) . Per­haps we should eliminate S tu ­den t Assembly and continue with the present S tu d en t Affairs C om m ittee .

These are some o f the ques­tions we are asking the s tuden ts to answer. The s ta tem en t was published fo r this reason. There seems to be a lack o f in terest in the S tud en t Affairs area; perhaps this is justifiable. Please rem em ­ber the response last year during elections: the majority o f candi­dates ran unopposed. The s ta te­ment in ou r op inion was n o t to be critical o f the s tudents , bu t ra ther to elicit response. What areas do we as s tuden ts feel S tud en t Affairs should en com ­pass? Are there still social changes to be made o r should S tud en t Affairs assume a new role? '

It seems to us tha t the fault of not being able to effectively opera te as representatives of s tuden t op in ion is due primarily - n o t to incom p e ten t leaders— but to a ques t ion o f direction.

Nixon still favors col lege deferm ent principleWASHINGTON (UPI) - The

Nixon adm inis tration defended draf t deferm ents for college s tuden ts yesterday despite Sen. Edward M. K ennedy’s charge tha t they let wealthier you th s “ avoid the shooting for four years” while hoping the Vietnam War would end.

“ I th ink i t ’s very appropria te for tha t boy to finish his educa t ion , then go into the service and con tr ibu te a little som ething ex tra ,” Joh n G. Veniman, Undersecretary o f the

Health Education and Welfare told Kennedy in a subcom m ittee hearing.

But K ennedy, (D. Mass.), impatiently puffing a thin cigar, said neither money nor brains - the tools for entering college - should favor one y o u th over ano th e r in a governm ent policy which sometimes means life or death . A bou t 30 per cent o f U.S. servicement killed in V ietnam have been draftees.

K ennedy, conducting hearings on alleged draft inequities before his Senate subcom m ittee on administrative practice and procedure , said Nixon should abolish s tudent deferments by executive order. He said s tudents frequently parlay a s tudent deferm ent into an occupational deferm ent and dodge military service altogether.

A bout 1.6 million college y o u th s now have s tudent d e f e r m e n t s , and ano ther 350 ,000 are deferred on grounds their civilian jobs are essential.

“ The basic requirem ents of

ou r society require a reservoir of c o l l e g e t r a in e d people ,” Veneman said. He urged quick Senate passage o f N ixo n ’s draft lo t te ry bill, u nder which draftees would be picked by random choice, with the selection limited almost entirely to 19 year olds.

K ennedy said he hoped the lo t tery bill would pass the Senate “ in a week or tw o .” It already has passed the House. But the Massachusetts Democrat said he considered it only a prelude to congressional action next year o n “ the kinds o f sweeping draf t reform so im portan t to guaranteeing a fair, nondisruptive d ra f t .”

Previously, K ennedy stalled the lo t te ry bill in hopes o f adding o th e r reforms as am end m en ts . He relented Tuesday at the insistance o f Sen. Jo h n Stem)is, (D. Miss.), chairman o f th e Senate Armed Services C om m ittee .

In the meantim e, K ennedy said, Nixon should wipe ou t both collge and occupational deferments.

Veneman said college you ths get draf ted after graduation . But K ennedy said if a college s tud en t can decide to postpone induction for fou r years, so should his neighbor. “ Why no t let him say, I’ll wait fou r years

like my buddy do wn the street w ho has a rich daddy w ho sent him on to college?” K ennedy asked.

“ S om eone w ho graduated this year and went to Vietnam, when t h e casua l ty rates are

dramatically lower, d o esn ’t have as good a chance o f getting killed o r w o unded as a boy who was draf ted from a t rade school fo u r years ago,” said K ennedy . T rade school s tuden ts do n o t get deferments.

SMCAcademic Affaihappy with committee

by Mary Kay DavyRegarding the recent suspen­

sion o f the S tud en t A fairs Commission at SMC, Pam Carey, the Academic Affairs Comm is­sioner, has stated tha t this in no way reflects the Academic Af­fairs Commission, it being the o th e r channel o f s tu den t govern­m en t at SMC.

Pam sta ted , “ All o f the girls are very happy with the coopera t ion they are receiving on the various com m ittees headed by the Academic Affairs Comm iss ion.”

She expressed great faith in the s tuden t body and their concern for SMC. She feels tha t

any lack o f involvement ex­hibited by the s tuden t body can be a t t r ibu ted to the s tudents inability to locate their interests within the s tructure o f s tudent governm ent o r to find the channels fo r their concerns ra the r th an a general a t t i tud e o f apathy.

T he Academic Affairs C om ­mission consists o f the s tuden t representatives on the Academic Affairs Council, an advisory council to the president, and those part icipating in the five academic comm ittees . The com ­mittees are Teacher E ducation , Curriculum, Library, Academic

Standing, and Admissions and Scholarship.

A ccording to Pam, the entire Comm ission is m uch m ore o p ti­mistic as to s tud en t involvement and its po ten t ia l im provem ent.

Pam acknow ledged the fact tha t the A cadem ic Affairs C om ­mission is no t making radical changes but sta ted , “ I feel we are making progress.”

In light o f these facts, the Academic Affairs Commission s tands n o t wishing to be iden t i­fied with the recen t actions taken by the S tu d en t Affairs branch o f SMC s tu d en t G overn­ment.

The U nit’s principal aim will be to establish and maintain con tac t with qualified Jam ai­cans overseas, nAt only s tudents , bu t also graduates at w ork a- broad and to advise them o f job opportun it ies here in Jamaica and seek to persuade them to return hom e to take up em p lo y ­ment either in the public or private sector.

The Unit hopes to keep com ­prehensive records o f s tudents at Universities and Ins titu tions of higher education overseas, their programmes o f study and ex­pected date o f graduation. Close liason will be maintained with industry and com m erce to as­certain vacancies and determine adeqate jo b descriptions and em ­p loym ent opportun it ies in the private sector, in o rder tha t the Unit will be a focal point o f all relevant in form ation .

The Unit is in terested in m ak­ing contac t with all s tudents receiving training in middle and top-level skills particularly in areas, where trained personnel is in short supply in Jamaica.

A representative o f the Unit, most likely the Head, will pay periodic visits at least once du r­ing the course o f each academic year to the main cities where Jamaicans are studying for dis­cussions and interviews with s tu ­dents and o th e r qualified Jam ai­cans.

Bill Etter .. scrambling to a recordby Jim DonaldsonObserver Sports Writer

One of the m ost exciting runners for Are Parseghian this year has been reserve qb Bill Etter, w ho has parlayed h i s s p e e d and scrambling ability into several long gains. Jim Donaldson takes a look at the young soph in this OBSERVER Sports Feature.

i t ’s n o t o f ten th a t a second string quarte rback is the third leading rusher on a m ajor college foo tball team and i t ’s even less f req uen t tha t a p layer in this posi t ion has a sho t a t earning a spo t in th e N o tre Dame record bo ok , ye t th a t is precisely what Bill E t te r is doing. T he 6 ’-2” , 185 po un d so phom ore is cur­ren t ly averaging 10.7 yards per carry af te r to t ing the ball 29 times, slightly ahead o f the record for highest average per rush in one season (m in im um of 25 rushes) o f 10.3 yards set in 1921 by Gus Desch.

E t te r has scam pered for runs o f 20 yards o r be t te r in each of his last fou r appearances and, though the Irish are usually

Gatewood?Due to a variety o f highly

technical and com plex reasons, namely th a t the Sports Editor m ade a stupid mistake, the p ic ture which appeared left- cen te r o n T u esd ay ’s spor ts page was incorrectly identif ied as T om G atew ood . We apologize and ho pe th a t this does no t de te r T o m from catching m any m ore passes this season.

solidly in the field when E tter takes the field, the fans stay on th e edge o f their seats, hoping to see “ the Mad Scram bler” tuck the ball under his arm and head o u t a round the end.

“T he people in the stands are m ore conscious o f the record than I am ,” Bill said. “ I’ve got to o m any o th e r things to th ink ab ou t on the fie ld .”

E tte r first displayed his b ro ­ken field talents in Yankee Stadium against Army by spr in t­ing 52 yards to the Cadet one fo o t line. A fter sitt ing o u t the So. Cal. contes t, E t te r ripped off several good gains in the Tulane game, the longest o f which was good for 21 yards. Bill really cut loose against Navy the following week, running for tw o to u c h ­downs, one a 79-yard sprin t th a t was the longest Irish run from scrimmage this season. Bill con­tinued to roll up the yardage last weekend, no tch ing a 26-yard to u ch do w n ja u n t against Pitt.

“ N one o f my runs have come from “ b ro k e n ” plays,” Bill said. “ T h e y ’ve all been called from the bench o r in the huddle. We try to set up the play by running betw een the tackles a few times to draw the defense in ,” Bill

explained. “T h en I fake a h an d o ff up the middle and try and get outs ide the defensive end. T hanks to good blocking on the line and receivers who cut back, I’ve been able to break loose.”

E tte r is most plaesed w ith fhis season, no t by his long runs, b u t by the am o u n t o f playing time he has seen. A ro l lout q uarte r­back w ith 10 flat speed, Bill gained over 2000 yards o f total offense as a Senior a t Lewis &

Clark High in Spokane, Wash., bu t d id n ’t play much as a Freshman due to an early season injury and difficulty adjusting to the drop-back style o f passing.

“ I was d isappointed in my play last fall - I ju s t c o u ld n ’t pick up the p rop e r play calling concep t to beat the defense and was making many technical mistakes,” Bill said, “ bu t in the Spring I received a trem endous am o u n t o f help from Coach Pagna and Jo e Theism ann and felt tha t things were looking b e t te r fo r me when I w ent home for the sum m er.”

“ I was really pleased this S ep tem ber when things finally began to fall in to place for me.

The Irish hockey team opens its regular season at hom e this Saturday night against a tough Windsor team. The m atch has been moved up to 7 :0 0 p.m. so as no t to conflict w ith the ND-Georgia Tech football game which starts at 9 :30 . Although t icket prices fo r general admis­sion seats have been raised to $1 .50 , ND s tuden ts can still get in fo r $1.00. GA tickets can be purchased at the door.

N otre D am e’s freshman fo o t­ball team closes its season w ith a m atch against Michigan this S aturday at 1:00 p.m. The Irish are 0-2 and the Wolverines 0-1. Both have lost to Michigan State, ND 21-7 and Michigan 23-21. T ickets are $1 .00 for students.

Sorin’s squad was led by ROTC C adet Jo h n Gangl. He fired 273 against Western Mary­land and 263 against Rose Poly. Gangl was assisted by Bob Rettig , V icen t R ow ay , Bob Eichorn , and Bill Hillion. Wes­tern Maryland was paced by Bob Darryl’s 258 and Rose Poly by

Although I’ve still got a lot of work to do I’m beginning to pu t together the physical and tech­nical aspects o f quarterbacking and am able to accomplish more o f w hat I’d like to be able to do on the f ield.”

As a youngster, Bill was envious o f N otre D am e’s fo o t­ball successes and wanted to boost the fo r tunes o f his own state, Washington, but, when it came time to select a college, he

narrowed the field to Notre Dame and S tanford .

“ I was impressed with Notre D am e’s s tra ightforw ard style of recruit ing ,” Bill said. “ Notre D am e’s academ ic program is also as first-rate as its athletics. I th ink I made the right choice - I’m glad I came he re .”

Judging by the roar at N otre Dame S tadium when Bill breaks in to the clear, lo ts o f o ther people are glad Bill’s here too.

The Heisman T ro ph y is more than an award for athletic excellence. It is a kind o f intercollegiate G ood Housekeeping seal.

Penn State annually has the best team in the East bu t its backfield is as well-kept a secret as NATO because you ca n ’t get to Penn State from New York. In fact, i t ’s no t to o easy from A ltoona, Pa.

The winner this year should be Michael Elston Phipps from the University o f Purdue, b o th because h e ’s the best qu ar te rback in the Big 10 (and th a t ’s like being the best singer in Italy) and because Purdue has fum bled this thing on the 10-yard line twice in the past three years.

S impsom won it and Bob Friese should at least have carried the Midwest in 1966, when the South rose again and ou t of the smoke-filled room s came Steve Spurrier of the University of Florida.

Mike Phipps would appear to be wide open in the end zone this year with 122 com pletions o u t o f 218 passes and 2 ,040 yards to go with the 2,896 h e ’s rolled up in tw o o th e r years. The East, which probably should have voted for Yale’s Calvin Hill last year but maybe they found ou t he d id n ’t like apple pie o f F o u r th o f July band concerts , would seem to be candidate-less as usual this year. T hey could o p t for O k laho m a’s Steve Owens bu t they probably th ink O klahom a is a for t under the com m and o f Jo hn Wayne being a ttacked by A n thony Quinn. The Pacific Coast has Jim Plunkett bu t w e’re saving h im for 1970.

Mike Phipps has beaten Notre Dame three years in a row and this tells y o u m ore abo u t Purdue than it does Mike Phipps. Most Big 10 team s w o u ld n ’t play N otre Dame three times EVER. Woody Hayes at Ohio State d oesn’t even w ant to run in to them at a railroad sta tion. I th ink he even flies around South Bend. He’s no t anti-Irish, h e ’s jus t anti-defeat.

So, you can’t pooh-pooh Purdue. And his coach says Purdue IS Phipps. “ Without him w e’d be 1-6 instead o f 6-1,” Jack Mollenkopf admits. Phipps does no t take the ball and follow 10 All-State blockers upfield. He has an offensive unit in which he and the cen te r are the ONLY returning le t te rm en. He has been com ple ting passes this year to guys he w o u ld n ’t recognize on campus.

Phipps d oesn’t come to school on a t rac to r bu t chances are slim h e ’ll ever ow n a saloon on Broadway or go around stuffing 2 0 ’s in head w aiter’s hands. He w o n ’t be in the queue in fron t o f Swedish movies and th e y ’ll never have to tap his phone. Dad was a state cop (divorced from Mike’s m other) and Mike does n o t th ink o f the law as “ fuzz .”

Still, his lips d o n ’t move when he reads, he d oesn ’t eat peas with a knife and he w o n ’t be coming to the Rose Bowl w ith an autograph book. He’s as im perturbab le as the Wabash bu t he can count. If the Bears want him, they can start the general bidding with the Wrigley Building.

If he gets the Heisman, it w o n ’t end up in a hock shop or be lost in a crap game. I t ’l be where the sheep c an ’t get at it. And if he d oesn’t get it, y o u ’ll be able to tell right away, l i e ’ll be the one shrugging.
