Dave Batchelder Photo Campus Opinions on Student Apathy Toward the Arts BY JO RAWSON 'Defiance Demonstration7 Breeds Noisy Storm of Protest in State University Slaps Probation on Anti-Civil Defense Marchers By STEVE TAYLOR Twenty-five UNH students and Durham residents last Friday afternoon staged a demonstration which has touched off one of the stormiest waves of controversey in the state of New Hampshire in recent years. Popularly termed a Defiance Demonstration’, the action resulted in the arrest of 18 people, mostly UNH male stu- dents. Two UNH women are also included in the group which to- morrow will face Durham Municipal Judge Bradley Mclntire on charges of violating the New Hampshire Civil Defense Code. Do you feel that there is student apathy towards the fine arts? If so, what is the cause of this apathy? These are questions that were asked of several UNH professors and stu- dents during the past week. The Uni- versity is spending time, thought and effort in procuring programs such as the Distinguished Lecturer and Blue and White Series for the student — who in general does not seem to appre- ciate or, in many cases, even desire these presentations. Student Feeling As one student put it, “ I can’t waste my time going to lectures that are either boring or over my head.” Another said, “ Many of us feel that the programs aren’t made up to attract students.” A third commented, “ I realize I prob- ably have the wrong attitude, but the Blue and White Series just doesn’t ap- peal to me. I guess it would help if initial interest was built up in freshman year. Perhaps that would build a better attitude. ” A coed remarked, “ Even if you have a ticket it is hard to find someone to go with. Generally, it just doesn’t seem to be the thing to do.” Remedies There appear to be two schools of thought on the subject of remedying the situation. Many feel that the level of presentation should be brought down to a more popular, less “ intellectual” level. “ Get a jazz band”, “ Ask Martin Luther King to speak”, are typical comments from this camp. In direct opposition are those who would like to have the .intellectual lev- el as high as possible. They feel that they benefit by being exposed to pres- entations that are likely to increase his knowledge, broaden his background and ultimately raise his intellectual lev- el. Professor John Zei of the music department believes “ that’s what the student is here for.” Blue and White As the matter now stands there has been somewhat of a, compromise as far as the Blue and White Series goes. The level of presentation remains high (“ After all,” as one professor com- mented, “ even Dave Brubeck’s concert given two or three years ago did not attract an audience large enough to fill the field house!”) but the commit- tee has tried to schedule future pro- grams which they hope will be more attractive to the average student. This includes programs such as that of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra which ■has been booked for next November. Karl Van Ledtje, president of Stu- dent Senate, commented that the in- dividual performer does not seem to be as well liked as a group perform- ance. He noted that Beveridge W eb- ster was well received at his third re- cital on campus, “ after the word had spread”, but that it isn’t often that a man can be booked for three perform- ances. Van Ledtje said, “ W e must aim at building a steady h a r d core of thought and then let enthusiasm build from there.” Student Backgrounds Professor Joseph Batcheller of the Drama Department stated that the arts needs the wholehearted support of stu- dent leaders and faculty. He feels that the student needs to be urged to attend those events which are outside of his experience. He made his statement, “ Many students have not felt that these things are part of their lives. They may come from small towns where plays, the symphony orchestra etc. are not available. By the time these students reach college their habit pat- terns are fairly well set, and unless a tradition is within the college and makes itself felt, they will follow the same habit.” Mr. Batcheller also stressed the im- portance of public relations. “ The amount and type of oublicity has a great deal to do with the relative at- tendance. . . The arts also have a re- sponsibility in the form of public re- lations of giving a good enough per- formance so that the student will like it pro or con.” Professor Karl Bratton offered this opinion, “ The reason may be that sci- ence is being so intensely stressed at this moment and the populace as a whole is beginning to lose sight of the fine arts. All are struggling to protect and live in peace and when we live in peace mankind has always pursued the fine arts. Therefore, we are trying to keep peace so that we may delve into the arts, but in our eagerness to be sure we keep the peace we are apt to lose sight of that which we are so anx- to protect.” Fasanelli Speaks Another opinion was expressed by professor James Fasanelli. He is opti- mistic about the situation and feels that it might be remedied by more an- nouncements in class. “ If the faculty stands foir professional performance in the arts, the students will follow.” s|Ie suggested that more students might attend if they had already paid for the program as part of their tuition. He ended his statement with, “ If we can subsidize football, why not Blue and White?” As is evident from the responses and reactions to these questions there is concern. It is recognized that coopera- tion on the part of faculty and students, ■more publicity, more varied programs and better attitudes are needed. We wait for action.

Wesley Powell at one o’clock Monday, May 1, forwarded a telegram to Eldon L. Johnson, president of the Uni- versity of New Hampshire, calling for the “ prompt dismissal” from the uni- versity of students who participated in “ open disobedience” to civil law Friday. Gov. Powell said, “It is my further opinion that the University administra- tion should have warned these students prior to Friday that such flagrant dis- obedience to civil law would result in their dismissal. “I was convinced in my own mind that by this time the University would have taken prompt action in this matter, and I deliberately waited until this hour be- fore expressing my position as governor and trustee ex officio in this way. “But I am advised by your assistant Dr. Knapp, that some two hours of dis- cussion have occurred at Durham with- out any decision in a matter which in my wTay of thinking in this time of national crises points to an action which should be obviously necessary.” Although it is not certain that Dr. Eldon L. Johnson’s message quoted be- low followed Governor Powell’s tele- gram, he issued the following statement on May 1, which was received by this paper on the . same afternoon that Gov- ernor Powell presented his feelings on the matter. The following is the text of President Johnson’s message. “Violation of the law always brings students under disciplinary review at the University of New Hampshire. A calcu- lated violation occurred last Friday dur- ing the Civil Defense Alert. Even if the intentions were merely to dramatize op- position to nuclear defense policies, the means used were illegal. Therefore, all students arrested last Friday have been placed on disciplinary probation. At pres- ent, pending the decision of the court, there is no basis for summary dismis- sals.” Reflections Papers Stretch Protest Facts By Larry Jasper The civil disobedience protests of last Friday are raising a great deal of con- troversey. While this newspaper cannot claim to be the best-informed of anybody else in the state, some facts stated and implications impressed upon the readers of several of this state’s papers are in- correct and at times misleading. These mistaken facts and inferences should be straightened away if anybody is to con- sider this issue intelligently. First of all the protest of last Friday cannot legitimately be called a riot. Fos- ter’s Daily Democrat used as its jump from page one to two “Student Riots.” The legal aspect appears neglected in the use of this word. A riot is “the execution of a violent and unlawful purpose by three or more persons acting together, to the terror of the people,” according to its legal definition in the American College Dictionary. The following misstatement from the Democrat provides a fertile but ground- less basis for the implication that a UNH faculty member’s home was some sort of a center of operations for protesting stu- dents. Following arraignment Friday eve- ning the demonstrators congregated at the Dagget home. . .” This is entirely false because the only “congregation” that occurred was at a student’s home on Friday evening. The Union Leader contributes a regret-! ably sinister note to Dr. Uphaus’ visit to the Dagget home on Thursday night, in its statement, that Robert F. Kingsley and Mr. Daggett “last night admitted that they met Dr. Willard Uphaus at Dagget’s house last Thursday.” Dr. Up- haus was on his way to his camp at Conway and only incidentally stopped in Durham, and further, the use of the word “admitted” would make one think that Dr. Uphaus visit was something to be ashamed of. Both papers previously mentioned cast Mr. Kingsley in a poor political light by citing the dilemma of wTorld destruction versus foreign domination, and leaving the inference to be drawn that since Mr. Kingsley does not wish to see a consider- able portion of the world destroyed, that he is in favor of Communist rule for America. However, Gallup and other polling agencies have posed this same dilemma to other Americans and a sub- stantial percentage have shown agree- ment with Mr. Kingsley conclusion. A poll conducted by Dr. Jellison in a Liberal Arts Freshman History course (Continued on page 8) Explanatory Letters Earlier in the week, letters written by a leader of the group, Robert Kingsley, a UNH graduate student, had appeared in various state newspapers outlining the idea behind the march which was to be staged Friday. The letters claimed that Civil Defense was no defense against nu- clear attack, and that such actions as Operation Alert were forms of deluding the public. Kingsley indicated that if he, or his fellow protestants were to be arrested, they would go peaceably. Gov. Wesley Powell warned that the laws of New Hampshire would be enforced in the event the protest actually took place and that anyone who defied the Civil Defense authorities would be arrested. Tension Increase Tension on the UNH campus grew last Wednesday when the president of the student governing body circulated a letter which urged students to stay away from the area of the scheduled protest march. ■ Early Friday afternoon, State Police cars began sweeping into the Durham area. By 3 :30 p.m., a half hour before the start of Operation Alert, several hundred students had converged in the Durham business section in anticipation of the march. They took up vantage points in barber shops, eating establishments, and second story tenement windows. Reads Statement About ten minutes before the Alert be- gan Kingsley called his followers to- gether and read them a statement urging them to submit to arrest without argu- ment or scuffle. The marchers assembled behind Kings- ley and his wife, who was pushing a baby carriage containing two young children. The group shuffled along the Main Street towards the Post Office and at about two minutes before four turned back toward the business district. The steam whistle on the UNH gener- ating plant sounded at four and State and local police and Civil Defense patrolmen strode across the street toward the crowd on the sidewalk in the heart of town. The students milled about for a moment or two and then retreated toward the build- ings. A pair of newsmen ‘took cover’ in a small open touring car. Police Intervene , The marchers meanwhile turned back toward the post office from in front of Dunfey’s Restaurant. As they approached the bulletin board area in front of the University Barbara Shop, Durham Police Chief Ray Burrows andState Police Corporal Paul O’Leary stepped in front of the group and asked if the marchers were aware of the fact that they were breaking the law. Kingsley replied that they were aware of this fact, and of the fact that they would be subject to arrest if they con- tinued ' to refuse to ‘take cover.’ The policemen told the group to “get off the streets, and stop making a spectacle of (themselves).” For a couple of minutes, the police and the marchers talked and stood while Civil Defense warden Tony Smith tried to get a group of bermuda short clad youths to take cover in a clothing store. Orders Newsmen Trooper O’Leary ordered the newsmen to take cover, but thig command was totally ignored. More than twenty re- porters, and newsreel, TV, and press camera men buzzed about the throng throughout the alert, unmindful of re- peated orders to take cover. At about ten minutes past four, the officers began taking down the marchers names. The lawmen refused to arrest the women in the group whc had children in tow. Rock and Roll From across the street at Hetzei Hall, a hLfi set screeched forth a rock and roll ditty called “Long, Tall Sally.” When the names were all recorded, the officers led the group across the street to four waiting police cruisers. When all the cars were filled, there was still one marcher left over. The police were not particularly concerned about leaving him standing on the Durham Common all alone. Warden Smith came across the street as soon as the all-clear sounded and grumped at the left-over marcher to “get in the car, if you want to be arrested.” The marcher appeared to prefer arrest to the swarm of inquiring newsmen which had surrounded him. The eighteen marchers were taken to the Durham Court House where they were arraigned and freed on $100.00 bail each. Most of the group had no bail money and were freed in their own recog- nizance.

'Defiance Demonstration7 Breeds Noisy Storm of Protest in State

University Slaps Probation on Anti-Civil Defense Marchers

By STEVE TA YL O R

Twenty-five U N H students and Durham residents last Friday afternoon staged a demonstration which has touched off one of the stormiest waves of controversey in the state of New Hampshire in recent years. Popularly termed a Defiance Demonstration’, the action resulted in the arrest of 18 people, mostly U N H male stu­dents. T w o U N H women are also included in the group which to­morrow will face Durham Municipal Judge Bradley M clntire on charges of violating the New Hampshire Civil Defense Code.

Do you feel that there is student apathy towards the fine arts? If so, what is the cause of this apathy?

These are questions that were asked o f several UNH professors and stu­dents during the past week. The Uni­versity is spending time, thought and effort in procuring programs such as the Distinguished Lecturer and Blue and White Series for the student — who in general does not seem to appre­ciate or, in many cases, even desire these presentations.

Student FeelingAs one student put it, “ I can’t waste

Papers Stretch Protest Facts

By Larry Jasper

The civil disobedience protests of last Friday are raising a great deal of con­troversey.

Summer Work Opportunities With Service

All students who have not yet found a summer job may register with Students for Summer Employment, an activity of Scholarships Unlimited, a students schol­arship service. Students for Summer Em­ployment takes the students availability and presents them to a guaranteed 1000 prospective employers in either the area of work or the geographical area that the student desires.

For all students we offer our service to cover the following work areas: First, the vacation and resort industry of the Middle Atlantic and New England states. This area includes the resort and vacation industries from Virginia Beach, Va. northward to Maine. This includes all of the mountain and lake regions within these states. Work in the vacation in­dustry is open to all students, with the better positions going to those with the knowledge and ability to teach or super­vise activities related to normal vacation activity. Needless to say that those with ■no skills other than their desire to work will be welcomed for all the many and varied duties associated with the vacation business.

The second area is for the student training in some area of engineering or science. To these interested students let us say that the depressed condition of our economy does not prevent a typical offer of $70 to $90 per week as engineering or research aides.

The third work area is limited to male students who have a desire to spend their summer on board a cruise ship leaving the eastern seaboard or the Gulf ports for the Caribbean, the Mediterranean, western European ports or an eleven week world cruise. Pay up to $110 every two weeks with two days of freedom in each port of call.

Because we are not a commercial em­ployment agency, there are no placement commissions payable by the student or the prospective employer, only a single regis­tration of $1 for the first two work cate­gories and $2 for the cruise ship work.

For prompt consideration necessary in this year’s competitive race for summer jobs send your name, address and regis­tration immediately for your registration application to STUDENTS FOR SUM­MER EM PLOYM ENT, Box 2092. Trenton 7E, N. J.

Preliminaries Ended in UNH College Bowl Contest

By Larry Jasper

On Sunday night, April 30, the pre­liminaries were ended and the quarter finals begun in the U N H Bowl con­test. Randall and Gibbs were victorious over Lambda Chi and Smith respec­tively in the final preliminary contest. T K E and Alexander shut out East- W est and Alpha X i in the first stages o f the quarter finals.

Art, politics, literature, languages, and geography comprised the basis for most of the questions which seem to be increasing in difficulty as the contest progresses.

The buzzer system finally has most of the bugs worked out o f it so that the contestants had little difficulty: in answering in an orderly manner. The sound system also is gradually being improved although the audience had difficulty in hearing some of the an­swers at times.

Next week the last o f the quarter­finals will be played and two of the semi-final contests will be held. On the week following that, the finals will be held.

A student committee makes up the questions asked, and they get their ideas from reference books in the li­brary or textbooks. Often they have asked questions submitted by the fac­ulty or they may use some o f the ques­tions from the original GE College Bowl.

The committee in charge of the UNH Bowl consists of Dennis Me Alpine, the chairman; Anne Johnson, Bob Michaud, Chuck Dodge, Tom Ring, Alan Weinstein, and Kathy Ball.

Student Art Work Opens Parents Day

The annual exhibit of Student Work in The Arts will open on Parents Day, May 6, and continue through the 4th of June. Comprised of work from all the arts and crafts areas, the exhibition is planned to show both the breadth and quality in these areas.

Represented in this year’s show will be the work from the design classes, which illustrates the students’ first experience with graphic media. The growth of the student’s awareness and perception may be seen in works from the more advanced drawing and painting courses. Ceramics is represented by both beginning and ad­vanced -students as is the area of print- making, jewelry and weaving. The fur­niture exhibited is largely the work of senior occupational therapy students who design and construct these pieces as part of the requirement of the wood processes course. Poster and package design ex­amples are selected from the commercial design course and reflect an application of experience gained in the design, drawing and painting areas to the problems of commercial illustration.

While the exhibition is descriptive of the work going on in University courses, it should be noted that factors of quality determine the final selection of pieces to be included in the show. The students thus consider the exhibit as an entity and not as the final extension of their courses.

Gallery hours are — Monday through Friday: 8:00 a.m. -4 :00 p.m.

Senator Protests Possible Cuts

Sen. Winston L. Prouty, R-Vt., has protested to Postmaster General J. Ed­ward Day the rumored removal of third class mail handling from White River Junction, Vt., to Springfield, Mass. Some 12 to 20 workers have been sorting and distributing circular mail at the White River Junction postal annex since 1959. Prouty wrote Day yesterday that re­moval of the operation would result in “unnecessary disruption of normal postal duties and force hardships on employees, many of whom have moved to White River from other areas.”

The University of Maine was recently awarded a $500,000. Ford Foundation grant to be used for training elementary and secondary school teachers.

Seek UNH Support Of Theatre Boycott

Are you supporting a movie theatre of a chain that is segregated in the South? In a recent letter to the New Hampshire from students and citizens of Austin, Texas, UNH students were asked not to patronize theatres owned by ABC Para­mount.

The letter further asked these students write to Mr. Leonard Goldenson, Presi­dent of ABC Paramount, asking him to desegregate his theaters.

As many as 600 students and citizens have stood in protest lines in front of the ABC theatres in Austin. Segregation has proceeded in Austin since the University of Texas peacefully desegregated in 1956.

“ Send a dollar, or as much as you can afford, to Students for Direct Action, 2844 Shoal Crest in Austin, to help buy a full page advertisement in the New York Times, protesting Mr. Goldenson’s segregation policy,” the letter also re­quested.

Lt. M. Robertson On AFROTC Staff

Colonel R. L. Wood, Professor of Air Science at the University of New Hamp­shire, announced this week that First Lt. Malcolm B. Robertson, USAF, has been assigned as Assistant Professor of Air Science at UNH, replacing Major Robert L. Spiller, who leaves in June 1961. Lt. Robertson is a native of Appleton, W is­consin, and holds a BA degree in Eco­nomics from Lawrence College, Apple­ton, Wisconsin. He is a fighter pilot in the United States Air Force and is pres­ently flying F-100 fighter-bomber air­craft in England. Upon his return to the United States, in May 1961, Lt. Robert­son will attend the Academic Instructor School, Maxwell Air Force Base, Ala­bama, in July 1961. Lt. Robertson is mar­ried and is the father of two sons, John and Spencer, age four and two respective­ly.

Far too often these scientific developments have not been integrated into any form of public policy. This is why new means of trans­portation have superseded older means simply because they are newer. This is why “ little thought is given use of television for public g ood ” . This is why “ 10 per cent of the population produces vast surpluses” of food in a partly starving world. This is why the education problem is “ most serious” today.

Columbia University Physicist Draws Meager Crowd at NH Hall

Dr. Isaac I. Rabi, Nobel Prize win­ning professor of physics at Columbia University, spoke Thursday, April 27, at 1:00 p.m. in NH Hall. The topic of this the last lecture of the Distinguish­ed Lecture Series of 1960-61 was “ Science and Public P olicy” .

A-Bomb Turning Point In this age of thermo nuclear weap­

ons and space explorations science is, in the words of Dr. Rabi, “ very much in the realm of public policy.” This has been so especially since W orld W ar II and the development of the atom bomb, a period which Dr. Rabi labels

as, “ the turning point o f history” .The Sputnik “ has excited our imag­

ination” in making us aware of the importance of science in the modern world.

More important than outer space and the exploration of life on other planets is the immediate problem of life on this earth. “ There has always been some form of (human) control, either arti­ficial or natural. In our age, Dr. Rabi pointed out, scientific advance in public health has eliminated many ills. Be­cause of this we are now in the midst of a great population explosion, “ which if allowed to continue unchecked, w ill” lead to social unrest and revolution” .

Rare DisplayLast Friday’s ‘Defiance Demonstration’ was conducted by about

two dozen individuals. A bout seven hundred U N H students flocked downtown to watch the goings on. This rare display of vital con­cern on the part of a generally unconcerned student body is attri­butable to a rare display of good old fashioned Big Brother think­ing on the part of Student Senate President Karl Van Ledtje.

W hen som ebody tells U N H students there’s something going on down on Main Street that they’d better not see, you can bet your bottom dollar they’re going to high tail right down there and find out what’s going on. W e ’re surprised Mr. Van Ledtje didn’t think of this before he printed up hundreds of copies of his letter urging students to stay away from the downtown district last Friday after­noon. Or, why didn’t the rest of the Student Senate, for that matter, consider this point, assuming Mr. Van Ledtje speaks as the Presi­dent of that body, rather than as just a student.

There was very little interest on the part o f the m ajority of the student body in this whole affair until the Van Ledtje letter came sliding under doors all across the campus last W ednesday night. W hen we got our copy, we scurried down to Grant’s to see the Concord M onitor article referred to in Van Ledtje ’s plea. W e couldn’t find any such article in the edition to which the letter re­ferred. W hen we asked Van Ledtje to show us the article he was talking about, he said that it was over at Dean Gardiner’s Office. Further investigation showed that the M onitor article was in the previous days edition.

W hen we returned to the dorm, we found the letter being dis­cussed in practically every room. Scores of students told us they were going to go downtown. Not because they were sympathetic toward the ‘Defiance’ marchers, but because they were irritated at being told how to ‘prove the inaccuracy’ of an unseen, unknown newspaper report.

The students who went downtown ‘proved the inaccuracy’ of Mr. Van Ledtje’s assumption in writing his letter. They were ‘ casually interested,’ but they obeyed police orders and conducted themselves in an orderly fashion.

W hen we take the implications of his letter a step or two further, we can make some amusing conclusions. For instance, so long as we have a Republican press in New Hampshire, w e’d all better act like Republicans down here in Durham, otherwise we might ‘ lose by our individual actions.’

M ost college students can think pretty well for themselves, re­gardless of what the ones-who-know say, and will regard any at­tempt to do their thinking for them with contempt and with defiance. M ost college students don’t like to feel that they are being cowed by the threat o f some adverse publicity. They are taught in the classrooms that they should get involved in ideas and get close to issues, yet along comes a really significant event, and they’re sa­gaciously told not to even try to see what the whole cause is about.'

W e are not defending the actions o f the ‘ Defiance’ groups and we are not defending violation of Federal and State law. W e are defending a young adult’s ability to make up his own mind.

Guest Editorial A DefenseBY A LLA N PINSINCE

I consider “ protest” an effective means of making clear issues that are often implicit or unclear to the general public, and provok­ing the public to think about them. O f course, I will concede that there are other methods just as effective as “ protest” and public “ demonstration” , but it largely depends on what the public psy­chology, understanding and sensitivity is, and what the issues are. I think most of us would agree that there are well written articles in magazines such as “ Harper’s” , “ Atlantic” , “ Saturday Review ,” “ The New Republic” , the “ Nation” and others; but the percentage of the public reading these magazines is relatively small and hence not very effective in many cases, especially where the issues are subtle and complex. _________

Student Writer

May Day PartyBY BILL OSGOOD

The little man sat there and dug into the deep recesses of his pipe with a church key. W e talked and he said nothing, just hunched his shoulders deeper into his ragged coat. Some of my friends were sitting around in the small, dark, smokey room, and I was attempting to describe the purpose of this column. They seemed interested. The little man did not look up, he did not stop digging, just “ Not too fussy about who they delegate authority to any more, are they?” and said no more. That was enough.

I believe the public is now unaware, insensitive, and psychologically disori­ented concerning the problems and issues involved in the protest and demonstra­tion made in Durham on Friday, April 28, 1961. I would like to clarify the rea­sons and motives for this event; but I would like to make it clear that the fol­lowing motives and reasons do not neces­sarily reflect the views of all the “demon­strators” involved in the Durham protest on April 28. Therefore I would like to begin by enumerating and explaining the following motives and reasons for my in­volvement in the demonstration.

First, the law we have violated is un­constitutional and violates our constitu­tional rights according to _ the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, which states:

“ Congress (and the states) shall make no law . . . abrididging the freedom of speech or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.”

Being arrested for peacefully assembl­ing on the sidewalks of Durham, New Hampshire is obviously a flagrant viola­tion of my rights according to the first amendment, and I was in no way hurting or encroaching upon anyone else’s free­dom to take part in the alert if they wished.

Second, I object to this law on the grounds that it forces me to utilize fa­cilities (which have not been provided in Durham) set up by the Civil Defense program. I know Civil Defense has my welfare in mind in the event of nuclear war, but I feel I have the right and free­dom to use or not use what Civil Defense makes available to me. If I violate traf­fic laws and interfere with mobilization units I should then be arrested for these violations. If, however, I wish to stay on the sidewalk or field or lake and ex­pose myself (just as Civil Defense

officials and the press choose to expose themselves) to death, that also should be my right. I should have this right accord­ing to the first amendment. Therefore, I should not be coerced into taking part in drills and exercises prepared by Civil Defense.

Third, the idea of Civil Defense ob­viously assumes that there is something or somebody left after nuclear war takes place and that there will be highways and communications available to them for their purposes. This is absurd for their is no realistic defense program against nuclear war according to Lord Bertrand Russell, U. S. Senator Stephen M. Young, Ohio, Governor Robert B. Mey- ner, New Jersey, Eleanor Roosevelt, and many others. If there are people left after a nuclear attack there would be no necessity for Civil Defense for these people before or after the attack. But those who remain will eventually be so contaminated by_ fallout that they, in all likelihood, would not survive very long. For those who take to underground liv­ing death would not be far away.

Fourth, since there is no adequate pro­gram possible in preparing for nuclear war, I feel that Civil Defense is a waste of tax money, and that this money would be more useful in setting up programs to prevent war rather than assuming we are going to have a nuclear war. However.I want to make it clear that I am not opposed to Civil Defense’s coping with natural disasters such as floods, torna­does, hurricanes, etc., and that I fully support their function in coping with I such disasters.

Fifth, Civil Defense has the propa­ganda value of orienting peoole, psy­chologically, toward preparation for a war that cannot be prepared for. It seems to me that we should bend our efforts toward preventing war rather than pre­paring for war.

Session on Campus Affairs Discusses Reading Program

By Tom Ring(Part two of the condensed report of

the Conference on Campus Affairs.)The afternoon session of the confer­

ence on Campus Affairs was devoted to the discussion of the Independent Read­ing Program which is currently in effect at Dartmouth.

Dr. John Stewart, the chairman of the program at Dartmouth, was present and explained its function and operation there. He stated that twelve books were read over the freshman and sophomore years. Tests were conducted on all the books, one half by machine scored exams, and the other half by 750-1000 word com­mentaries by the students. These com­mentaries could be passed in at any time, but failure to pass them in by the end of the freshman year resulted in proba­tion for the student and suspension at the end of the sophomore year, with a grace period of one term.

Stewart said that 90 percent of the faculty and students were “ sold on the concept pf the program.” They approved of the commentaries, but were opposed to the machine-scored tests, claiming that the reading was done for the exam, not for understanding. Students also claimed that the exams couldn’t detect the con­ceptions of the books. They suggested lectures instead of exams, and Dr. Stew­art said that the suggested lectures were to take place of the exams. This illus­trated one of the cruoial points of the success of the program: the close con­tact and cooperation between faculty and students.

Books ControversialNext year Dartmoutn will offer only

15 books to insure the equality of chal­lenge and difficulty. The books will be controversial, difficult and stimulating.

Professor Nicoloff of New Hampshire felt that the program was not primarily designed for more reading on the out­side, and that it would inhibit the active­ly-reading student. He knew that it would help the non-reading student, but he wondered at the advisability at estab­lishing this for the whole UNH popula­tion. This also brought out the problem of telling which students needed this pro­gram and which didn’t. Dr. Cryesky sug­gested that a value for this program was to synthesize a student’s knowledge in his field and to stimulate him to investi­gate other fields other than his own speciality. He also suggested offering credit for the program.

Some student suggestions in the dis­cussion are as follows. Make the program compulsory, at least in its trial stages. There must be close co-operation between faculty and students, each respecting the others’ opinions and judgments. Another suggestion was that a book of the year be selected to be read by the whole student body. If this program is insti­tuted, it should be done in a “big” way and not gradually.

Polls at the end of the discussion groups revealed 58 students in favor of this program and 1 against it. The Com­mittee would like to express their ap­preciation to Professors Richard Schrei- ber, David Knapp, Philip Nicoloff and Ralph Cryesky for their invaluable help on the panel and as discussion leaders.

These two articles have been just con­densations of the Conference. The main report will be issued when the delegates have replied to the questionnairees sent to them and we have heard from Dart­mouth students expressing their opinions on these programs.

I was lunching at an excellent little French restaurant just off 5th Avenue a short while ago with a beautiful (and surprisingly enough, intelligent) secre­tary friend. We were enjoying our food and amusing ourselves with small talk, when she looked up and asked for a sat­isfactory distinction between an intellect­ual and a pseudo-intellectual. I had my own definite ideas, mostly that I hate falseness in any form, especially in rela­tion to thinking, or the absence of think­ing. I soon found that she had her own ideas, and that they were somewhat simi­lar to mine. We thought of a number of mutual acquaintances and realized that the most enjoyable are the few with fresh new ways of saying the old ideas. We also realized that we were tired of our cliche-using acquaintances, the par­rots who know the right thing to say, and

Modest ProposalTo the Editor:

I have read your editorial, “Reciproci­ty” , with interest. That an editorial by an American College newspaper would champion the performance of the Soviet Red Army Chorus, which you call “an internationally famous ensemble” , does not surprise or shock me. What does, is the editor’s unrealistic appraisal of the cultural exchange situation, not only for foreigners” who might object, and usual­ly do, to the performances of Soviet companies, but from the standpoint of Americans. I cannot understand how it is possible for a student in a University in the Western World to be, of all re­sponses, “disappointed to see art being used as a weapon in the political arena” , when it has been there for so long.

Since the tone of your article indicates that this talent for associating disparate ideas is most easily identified in your mind with the U. S. State Department, allow me to inform you.

To mix art with politics, to use art as a weapon on the political arena, is not an idea born in the Office of the State Department. If you had lived a few years in a Communist country you would come to understand that the Soviet art without political meaning is a phenome­non only in the “Western capitalist socie­ty” . It is not difficult to read in a school book that the Party and the Government cannot afford to regard art as anything less than a tool in the political victory. These are the phrases of Stalin. They are still taught in a country like Hun­gary.

What is so .frequently forgotten is what art means to the Soviet. In doc­trine, Soviet art serves the same purpose as the Soviet Delegation to the United Nations, the Soviet Embassy, the Soviet sport exchange, the Soviet Spy-centers, Soviet agents, assistant agents, agitators, newspapers, magazines. Cultural Ex­change, and is one continuous hymn aimed at the Western Citizen about the greatness of the Red Empire.

In such a situation aesthetic appreci­ation and freedom of performance take on political significance. It is very diffi­cult for a Hungarian to even think of “ enjoying” a performance of the Soviet Red Army Chorus, however inactive it may be these days. In Eastern Europe, in the shadow of the Red Army tanks, people with whom I once lived are today living in fear not of aesthetic injustice or political bad taste, but of the ruthless­ness of the Soviet Army. A few months ago in Hungary they made it lawful to imprison children under 16.. But, this is not so bad. They made it lawful to exe­cute them after 16. This is not a secret operation, it is a law against the young enemies of the Soviet Dictatorship.

unfortunately, invariably say it. A pseudo­intellectual is the first to deny his pseud- ism, an intellectual just doesn’t give a damn.

One of my Washington friends, the one who drunkenly confided his affiliation with the John Birch Society to me, in­sisted that we come to his May Day Party. He provided us with glowing de­scriptions of the crepe-paper decked May Pole and how we could spend the whole day dancing around, the rest of the time, singing and drinking beer, and even (here his enthusiasm mastered his good sense) contact the local Air Force Base and ar­range for a flight of bombers at a cer­tain time. Unfortunately, we were in­volved, (Birchless), with our own cele­bration. Later, we found that not only was he arrested, but is presently being investigated. Ah, sweet pain of life.

To the Editor:During my few years at U N H , I have

often wondered at the purpose of Stu­dent Senate. I had heard of numerous Study Croups and countless commit­tees, but had rarely heard o f anything the Senate had actually accomplished. Upon receiving a letter addressed to all students this evening, I was prompt­ed to investigate the matter and turned to th,e Student Handbook, The Cat’s Paw. There, in the simplest prose pos­sible, I learned that the Senate was composed o f a wealth o f committees; some o f which even I could join, and that there were two types of commit­tees — Standing and Special. I learned that a Special Committee is responsible for The Cat’s Paw, another Special for Ben Thompson’s Birthday, but a Standing -does something with W om ­en’s Rules.

Although I searched diligently, I could find no committee under which I could classify the letter I received, yet it was clearly signed by the President of Student Senate. Apparently, Mr. Van Ledtje was concerned over a newspaper article allegedly carried by the Concord Monitor ((subsequent search o f that newspaper revealed no such article). He had no time to organize a Study Group, none o f the Committees (the backbone o f Student Senate) had juris­diction over the matter, so he, in great haste, drafted the letter and used his official title to give, it weight.

If Mr. Van Ledtje were an interested student reacting to a newspaper article he considered misleading, or, if he had merely signed the letter without adding his title, it would be quite simple to re­gard the letter with usual apathy. But when a letter which specifically at­tempts to dictate student policy is strengthened by the use of such a title (perhaps Mr. Van Ledtje thought that being in office for such a short time, no one would recognize his name) it becomes a gross over-extension of whatever executive power Mr. Van Ledtje possesses.

I have tried to be fair in analzing Mr. Ledtje’s motives for writing the letter, but I cannot rationalize the fact that he has no right or duty to try to govern student actions or opinions. All apathy has disappeared.

Michael Smith West Hall

I am shocked not because these facts are not pleasing in a “Western capitalist society” , or even that the memory of Budapest is a short lived dissonance in the concert of East and West relations.

New England Dance Concert a Well Attended Success

Last Friday night’s New England Dance Concert was & climax to con­siderable preparation on the part of the dance groups from Colby, W est­brook Junior, Wellesley and UNH.

An effective variety o f subjects and moods kept audience interest at a high level, and could only hint at the tre­mendous range of dance forms the catch-all phrase “ modern dance” in­cludes. For instance, there were those dances o f lighter vein which hit close to home — such as “ Boredom, ” a, re­flective attitude on study habits, done by the Colby dancers.

changing moods of the masses reflect­ed in W estbrook Junior’s interpreta­tion of Carl Sandburg’s “ The People, Yes.” Another high point of the eve­ning, done by the Wellesley igroup, was Dylan Thomas’ “ Ceremony After A Fire Raid.” No one could help feeling excitement and sensing swirling flames the rapidly moving dancers portrayed. “ 'In Search o f Character,” an original verse composition by Frank Wells, got almost too deep in places — per­haps because a sound system failure made the narration almost inaudible — but everything seemed to resolve itself at the end.

Carol Morrill, President o f U N H ’s Modern Dance Club, showed great in- sight> as she portrayed the emotions of being “ A lone” ; Dave Paige’s accom ­panying percussion effects created quite an atmosphere o f despair and loneli­ness. Another noteworthy solo was “ Captive,” done by Sally Berry from Colby; perpetual motion as part o f a consuming struggle to free herself con­veyed the utter desperation of a cap­tive most effectively.

The whole concert showed much originality. An overall impression is

Language Reading Exams Coming Up

The Language Reading Examinations to satisfy the requirement of the College of Liberal Arts will be given on Thurs­day, May 25, 1961 at 12:50.

Students planning to repeat this test must register in Murkland 109 before 4:30 on Friday, May 19. The Language Department requires that students plan­ning to repeat this examination submit proof of substantial preparation since their last attempt.

Students now enrolled in an elementary course need not register unless they are repeating the examination in that langu­age.

All students enrolled in elementary courses will take the test in rooms to be announced in class. Students repeating the test and not currently enrolled in an elementary language course will take the test in Murkland Auditorium.

Arnold Air SocietyThe Arnold Air Society held elections

of officers Thursday, April 27. The new officers are: Squadron Commander, Neil Bryant; Executive Officer, Douglas Tremblay; Operations Officer, Brad Kidder; Administrative Officer, Samuel Noyes; Comptroller, Paul Durette; In­formation Officer, William C. Crabtree Jr.

The Society is planning an outing the weekend of May 21 with a beach picnic and a band in the evening.

T w o U N H personalities were among the five New Hampshire sculptors who recently exhibited their work in Paul Creative Arts. Alfred Potter, teacher of ceramics and sculpture, exhibited two metal castings. Cabot Lyford, program manager o f W E N H -T V , exhibited six objects, four in stone and tw o in wood.

Potter’s works, one in bronze, the other in iron, represent his first results in work­ing with metal casting. Lyford’s six are work he has done since last fall. Until then he’d had trouble finding a place to work. “ It’s a nosy business when you pound on a rock” Lyford explained. He now works in the garage of his Durham home.

Casting Challenge“Casting is a great hallenge because of

its negative approach,” Potter feels. He explained that he gouged his design into blocks which he then fitted together to make a form. A firm in Norwich, Mass. then pours molten metal into it and after it has cooled, Potter chips away the form leaving his art object.

Ceramics to Iron Potter’s iron piece which has been

rusted red by acid, is an attempt to carry the lines and shadings that he has used in ceramics to iron (see photo).

Self Critical He said of his bronze piece, “ This

doesn’t please me at all. The object should stand by itself and should be an enter­tainment in itself. It should not be sup­ported by explanation.”

Form Most Important Potter deals only with form in these

pieces and believes that “ Theme is not important.”

Form and ThemeLyford’s work, on the other hand, deals

with form and themes. “Naked form can’t have the impact that sculpture can achieve with both form and theme,” Lyford said. The best example of this is shown in his sculpture in oak called “ Our Lady of Radiation” (see photo). If he had de­veloped this theme without the use of form, he agreed, he would have found himself painting ban the bomb in white on a black sidewalk somewhere.

Size Important “Icarus” , a five foot winged figure,

carved in cedar, was the largest in the show. “ Size is important to me. I would

like to carve a mountain,” Lyford said. Lyford borrow the theme for this sculp­ture from Greek mythology. (When Icarus grew up, his father gave him a pair of wings, but as Icarus journeyed through the sky, he passed too close to the scorching sun and his wax-like wings melted.

Another of Lyford’s six pieces, “Eve” , is a carving in stealite which he explains is “ just a fancy word for soapstone” . Eve has just come out of the garden. She has a faint happiness in her expres­sion, her hand is on her head and in it she holds an apple. “ She liked it,” Ly­ford explained. “But she knows what the score is.”

Theme DevelopmentLyford’s favorite is a work in white

marble which he calls, “Lamenting Mother” . She has arms and knees sor­rowfully cramped against her womb as she lies on her back lamenting her lost child. In this sculpture, as well as in “ Our Lady of Radiation” . Lyford has placed the facial features on top of the figure. He feels this gives the face of the sculpture more o f the feeling and strength that is in the body. “ I hope to develop this more fully,” Lyford said.

Flying RockAt first glance, many viewers didn’t

think Lyford’s “Bird” would get off the ground. One would think a bird should be a very detailed sculpture, but not so in Lyford’s “Bird” . The head has enough detail to allow one to recognize it as a bird; the rest of the body is raw unbal­anced rock, hardly a pair of wings. But as these people eyed it longer, they agreed this hunk of rock was flying. Lyford ex­plained that he wanted a bird in flight. “ When I turned around in my garage, it was flying. It was finished. If a sculpture says what I want, I stop and do not add any more details. To me it weighs an ounce and a half.”

simply a passive instrument of public policy .”

“ It is a myth that science is neutral and unrelated to human values. Sci­ence has set the theme for these times. Scientists must take their place, and this place is not as a pressure group. The message of scientists is universal; that is, the universal appeal, the great common basis for all mankind that science is.

Advisory committees such as The Presidential Advisory Committee are important. Now, with the Sputnik, sci­entific advisors have moved into the White House. Here the scientist does not wait to be asked but points out the scientific implications in public policy. This is “ only one part of the system” — the Executive. The influence of the scientist must be extended to the other branches, for the scientist’s function is not only to advise but to legislate and judge as well.

In emphasizing the importance of science in our culture, Dr. Rabi con­cluded his lecture by stating that it is “ science that makes you feel at home in this world, for it makes it an under­standable place” .

Revision of ProgramsIn ROTC Units Told

Both Army and Air Force R O T C programs have something new in store for the class of 1965. Both services are changing their programs over in order to take more University credits, and thus produce officers better fitted by their college experience to perform their military duties.

Rumors FalseThere have been rumors that both

R O T C programs will be conducted on a voluntary basis, but this is altogtther false. The Army, first of all, will give 30 hours o f classroom training and 15 hours of Leadership Lab (drill) dur­ing the first semester. During the sec­ond semester, the freshmen may select in one of four categories from the regu­lar curriculum, rather than a military course.

If he passes this subject, he is award­ed full credit for MS 1 and 2. All dur­ing the second semester freshmen will participate -in drill. The four catego­ries recommended by the Army, con­stitutes a nominal supervisory control as the four fields are very general. Any subject under the following heading may be selected: (1) Effective Com­munication, (2) Psychology, (3) Politi­cal Institutions, (4) Science Compre­hension. As Colonel Stabler put it, “ This program is mainly to allow the cadet on his own, to broaden his cur­riculum. ”

Regular DrillThe present Army students will con­

tinue in the program as it is now up to their junior year. This is because the continuity of the program would suffer if they were to change horses in mid­stream. However the sophomores of the class of 1965 will enter the new plan. They will have the regular drill periods throughout the year and they will en­roll for tw o credit hours of Military Science for both semesters. By this time they will have had the opportunity to show their superiors how likely they are to succeed in the officer’s program. They will be selected from the sopho­more class according to their qualifi­cations.

This year’s sophomores and those sophomores from the class o f 1965 will participate in a newly organized MS three and four program. These students will take 75 hours of military training for all four semesters. The juniors will

attend the required drill periods all year round, but during the first semes­ter will elect a 3-credit course from one of the four fields previously mentioned. The second-semester Army students will participate in training which will prepare them for summer camp, which will involve 75 hours of training for that semester also.

The seniors under the Arm y’s new program will complete their military training during the first semester, which will qualify them to serve as 2nd Lieutenants. They will again take a subject o f their choice for credit for MS four.

More University CreditsThe greatest advantage to this pro­

gram is, that while enabling the mili­tary student to take more university credits, the Army program may allow more students to participate in its o f­ficer training program. Especially, it will allow more students from the school of technology to participate, as they have notoriously heavy require­ments to meet.

While this program has been ap­proved, as Col. Stabler stated, it is expected to be only transitory, for the organization of the whole R O T C pro­gram is being considered by Congress and the Defense Department.

The Air Force has recently submit­ted a proposal to subsidize selected stu­dents in an advanced program where the students involved would receive a yearly pay of $1,100. In order to do this the Air Force would have to aban­don any basic courses that it now has. The Army would then undertake to train all students in a revised basic course. From the students who success­fully completed the course, the Air Force would then consider applicants for advanced officer training in their branch, as would the Army.

Plan Not AcceptedWhile the Army has informally

agreed to take over all basic teaching, this plan cannot be accepted because of the diversity in military training pro­grams that exist at separate colleges. As soon as an effective program can be set up and agreed upon, a program similar to the one just described would be initiated at the university. At any rate this will not happen for three to five years, if at all, because o f the dif­ficulty of the change.

The change which the Air Force has introduced in its program is also cal­culated to give greater breadth to the students’ curriculum, while still main­taining the University’s output of o f­ficers. The Air-Foree’s plan for next year’s students will enable them to get six extra credits of work while getting full credit for Air Science. Their plan also includes the regular number of hours alloted to drill throughout both semesters. Freshmen will take any one of several University courses which the Air Force approves during their first semester. During the second sem­ester the freshmen will attend classes three times a week and drill once a week for an hour.

Begin Next YearThe Sophomores will begin in the

new program next year. They will go to drill during the first semester and take one three credit course for the

High School Leaders May Fail in College(Reprinted from the Iowa State Daily.)

The top ranking student in some high school graduating classes stands lower on objective and standardized tests of aca­demic achievement than the lowest-rank­ing student in other high schools, states Professor Boyd McCandles, director of the Iowa Child Welfare Research Sta­tion at The State University of Iowa.

He discusses weaknesses in article titled “Evaluating Curriculum Mastery” in the current issue of School and Socie­ty magazine. The article is taken from McCandless’ new book, “Children and Adolescents : Behavior and Development,” to be published later this month.

As many as two-thirds of the high country fall below the median of high school graduates from one section of the candless continues in the School and So- school graduates from other sections, Mc- ciety article.

“ Such discrepancies can and do lead to serious complications when, for example the valedictorian of an inferior high school goes to college and begins to com­pete with students who have been better trained than he,” says McCandless.

Also, continues the SUI professor, the child in the middle or toward the bottom of the class in a highly efficient and rigor­ous school system may be quite capable of mastering advanced training, but be discouraged from trying to attend college.

The standing of a child within his class­room group typically determines the teacher’s evaluation of his performance, explains McCandless.

Evaluation based solely on how child­ren in a given class compare with one another can lead children to very inac­curate perception of their academic abili­ty.

“A relatively bright child in a blighted neighborhood may develop grandiose no­tions of his ability; a bright child in a highly superior class may develop an un­justifiably poor notion of his ability,” says the SUI professor.

Isolated or rural communities frequent­ly develop “delusions of grandeur” in at least the top students in a class, he says.

Despite the. weaknesses of a grading system based on relative standing in a classroom, knowledge of this standing is important in grading children. However, a child and those responsible for his guidance should know how he stands on norms extending beyond his classroom and school, McCandless points out.

Continuing his discussion of grading systems, McCandless notes that proced­ures for evaluating the progress of ele­mentary school children range all the way from interviews with parents, in which many phases of the child’s development are discussed, to the traditional report card. He states that parent, teacher andsemester. During the second semester they will take 60 hours of classroom and drill. The advanced program will consist of 90 hours of class and drill time per semester and students will attend the regular summer camp.

Although both of these programs are only temporary, they show an impor­tant trend. First, that the Armed Forces are going to continue with their college R O T C -programs as an impor­tant arm o f their recruitment; and sec­ondly that they are doing all that they are able to make -participation in a col­lege R O T C program 'as rewarding as possible for -the student.

Youth Corps to Aid Reservation Tribes With Their NeedsEd note: the following excerpts were taken from the April 19 issue of the Harvard Crimson.

*A domestic youth corps offering jobs

for 36 University students to assist American Indians has been organized for this summer.

The plan will involve voluntary work suggested by Indians on ten reservations across the United States. The jobs are largely in playground recreation and in community projects, and range from aid­ing in a Sioux fisheries program to man­aging a Cheyenne Little League Team.

The newly-drafted Indian reservation project grew out of the demands of Har­vard anthropology students. At the urg­ing of her seminar people, Dorothy Lee, lecturer on anthropology, contacted the Association on American Indian Affairs which negotiated the jobs with various Indian tribal councils.

A distinctive feature of the Indian youth corps is that the work “ is what the Indians want, not what we think they ought to want,” noted Mrs. Lee.

Financial support is the crucial limit­ing factor in the program. For the most part, corpsmen will have to pay for their own room, board and transportation. A budget of $12,000 is needed to cover basic expenses as well as grants-in-aid to “tal­ented men and women who need summer earnings to meet college fees.”

Beginning in May, Mrs. Lee will con­duct a seminar in Indian tribal history, anthropology and the problems of cultural adaptation. In addition there is the possi­bility of an intensive four-day orientation right after examinations.

The first and most important piece of information about a child’s progress is how well he is doing in relation to his ability, McCandless says.

Certainly, the .school should provide in­formation about a child’s actual progress in relation to what he can do potentially. If children were assigned grades on this basis, the pattern of many report cards would be greatly changed, he says.

Now We KnowFlash! W e ’ve just received the latest word on a subject that has

been bothering us for quite a spell. It can now be revealed that a University of Southern California nerve specialist has discovered that a number of nerve disorders which cause temporary paralysis of the hands and legs come from watching television.

Dr. A. A. Marinacci says that these disorders are caused by pres­sure on the nerves resulting from watching T V for long periods, in awkward positions.

This is a surprise. W e had always thought that the aches and pains were a result of vigorous attempts to dodge all those bullets richocheting from the screen.

Divot Diggers Upset UConn., Drub Lowell

A red-hot golf team upset the Uni­versity o f Connecticut 4-3, and drubbed Lowell Tech. 6-1 in a triangular match at Willimantic, Conn. last Friday.

Suffering from a 6-1 trouncing by Rhode Island earlier in the week, the W ildcats picked up their first Yankee Conference victory, and their second victory over Lowell Tech, this season.

Medalists Shoot 71The team, playing steadier than in

its previous matches, was led by meda­lists, Captain Bill Loch-head and John Splaine with 71s. Other U N H victors were Rucker Burks and Dick Edmands.

In the Lowell Tech, match, Loch- head, Splaine, Edmands, Chuch W er­ner, Jim W inn and Pete Cook all rolled up victories.

The Wildcats will travel to the Uni­versity o f Maine to defend its Yankee Conference Championship in _ the 36- hole medal tournament on Friday and Saturday.

The season record now stands at three wins and one loss.

Crier Obsolete With Electronic Developments

If anyone needs a reporter, wandering minstrel, traveling salesman, and post­man, I ’m available. Miller Watt they call me, or rather they used to call me that when I was Durham’s town crier. Now I ’m obsolete, replaced by the electron tube W M DR, the campus radio station. Since I don’t have anything -else to do I think I ’ll soliloquize about my successor.

W M DR, owned and operated by a stu­dent organization, broadcasts daily from 8 a.m. until midnight. For a diverse audi­ence, the station presents classical, jazz, and folk music; athletic contests and sports events; news and weather; and special features such as convocations and interviews. Although only twenty people work in engineering, production and an­nouncing, efficient utilization of modern, professional equipment enables W M D R to offer its listeners quality program­ming.

While the average student may not realize it, campus radio will play musical requests ranging from “ II Trovatore” to “ Elvis In Paris” , and for those who en­joy exotic sounds, the station’s mobile console could broadcast from almost any­where in the world. ._. and that’s a jolt to the town crier business.

Town criers did have one advantage over W M DR. .. . a salary. From its share of the student activity tax and from lbcal and national advertising, campus radio pays its expenses; but no staff members receive any pay. All money acquired by the organization is used for maintenance, international news teletype wires, and new facilities. Even though working voluntarily, the station’s per­sonnel devote hours serving its audience.

This year, W M D R has extended its coverage of news and sports. Even now plans are under way for a more complete coverage of university activities, not only on the playing field, but also in the con­cert hall and on the stage. If you are in­terested in any aspect of radio, W M DR you may contact any of its officers. W M DR offers training and experience at no cost. . . unless you happen to be a town crier.

Wildcats Lose Diamond Contest At Bowdoin

Poor defensive play offset a good hit­ting attack and a brilliant pitching per­formance by Bob Fortier as UNH base­ball team was defeated by Bowdoin 9-4 at Brunswick last Thursday.

Bowdoin scored five runs in the first inning. Three of them were unearned. New Hampshire made a total of five errors in the game.

Fortier was relieved in the seventh by Jim Stewart as the Cats moved in on the Bowdoin lead. However, poor fielding again spelled final defeat.

Joe Manzi collected two hits and Ed Cramer rapped in a run with a pinch hit triple.

The Connecticut and Northeastern games were rained out, and will be re­played at a later date.

Two approaches to the “ man’s deodorant” problem

If a man doesn’t mind shaving under his arms, he will probably find a woman’s roll-on satisfactory. Most men, however, find it sim pler and surer to use Mennen Spray Deodorant. Mennen Spray was made to get through to the skin, where perspiration starts. And made to work all day. More men use Mennen Spray than any other deodorant. How about you? 64c and $1.00 plus tax

Feel ImportantThe sixth niece Lyford had on exhibit

is a small horse. The smooth, highly polished top half grows out of rough un­finished rock. “ The range from rough to smooth is pleasant,” Lyford said. “I think a sculpture is good when I want to feel it and run my hands over it,” Potter said as he ran his hands over Lyford’s “Horse.”

urday morning. One local radio station’s ‘Open Mike’ program was swamped with opinion on the demonstration. Comments reflected considerable misinformation as to the purpose of the movement and the actual events which had taken place.

G. I. Bill EmphasizedThe Manchester Union-Leader empha­

sized that Kingsley is attending the Uni­versity on the GI Bill.

The University went on record as be­ing opposed to the movement from the outset. UNH faculty members Carleton Menge, Joseph Batcheller, and Dean Robb Gardiner are officials in the Dur­ham Civil Defense Unit.

Catalfo RetainedDover attorney Alfred Catalfo was re­

tained by various members of the group on Friday, after receiving “a message from Durham,” he said. Reports early this week indicate that the majority o f the delegation would go it alone in their respective court room appearances. Cer­tain members claimed they would battle their causes to the Supreme Court level, if necessary. A few marchers on Mon­day were seeking witnesses of the arrests to make notarized statements for case use.

Powell TelegraphOn Monday the Union-Leader carried

a front page article which stated that Willard Uphaus had met with Kingsley at the home of UNH professor G. H. Daggett. One of the marches who was at this meeting told The New Hampshire that at that meeting both Daggett and Uphaus emphasized that they did agree with the method being used in this cause. This source also stated that Uphaus was only “passing through town, and he knew nothing of the planned demonstra­tion, and no ‘plans’ whatsoever” were laid at the Daggett home on last Thurs­day evening.

On Monday Gov. Powell telegraphed UNH President Eldon Johnson demand­ing that the UNH students involved in the demonstration be expelled from school. The subsequent UNH adminis­tration action was to issue an edict which placed the involved students on disciplin­ary probation pending the court’s action.

Stretch Facts . . .(Continued from page 1)

indicated that a very clear majority of the students preferred “occupation by a foreign power to a thermo-nuclear cata- clysln.” Can the conclusion about Kings­ley and each of the other protestors be applied to these people? Could it be true that a large percentage want Communism or are they only guilty of wanting peace and life.4, 1961 at 7:00 p.m. in the Carroll Room of the Memorial Union.

UNH Outing Club Attends Outing Club Conference

Four members of the UNH Outing Club attended the annual Intercollegiate Outing Club Conference at the Penn. State Civil Engineering Camp at Uni­versity Park, Pa., from April 21-23. Making the 1225-mjle round trip were Nancy Lowe, Sandra Scruton, Erling Heistad and Gardiner Chamberlain.

According to the UNH representatives who reported to the Blue Circle on April 24, students and alumni from as far west as Chicago and as far south as Virginia brought the total registration to 140 people from 35 colleges.

The purposes of the conference were to form policies for the forthcoming year and to elect officers.

Ideas were exchanged in smaller group discussions on supporting Wilderness Bills, OC activities and organization problems, and calendar events. A film, “This is Outing Club” , and a narrated program of slides on Antarctica were presented.

Among the activities of the weekend were “ spelunking” (cave climbing), rock climbing, canoeing, hiking, square danc­ing, and song festing.

The active rock climbing program at UNH and the new NHOC rescue team were enthusiastically approved.

President Johnson On ROTC Panel

President Eldon L. Johnson of the Uni­versity of New Hampshire has been named by the Secretary of the Army to represent the National Association of State Universities as a member of the Army Advisory Panel on ROTC Affairs.

Dr. Johnson atended a conference this week at the Pentagon to discuss prob­lems relating to the ROTC program.

The Army Advisory Panel on ROTC Affairs was established in 1952 to con­sider problems of the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps and to make recommen­dations for improvement in the interests of both the Department of the Army and the civilian institutions sponsoring the training program.

the British Ministry of Education, will visit the University of New Hamp­shire campus May 5 and 6. Friday at 2 p.m. he will speak on “ British and American Education — Some Similari­ties and Differences” in Paul Arts Center, Room M213. At 4 p.m. on Fri­day an informal coffee hour will be held in the Carroll-Belknap room of the Memorial Union. The coffee hour is sponsored by the newly-formed Student NEA. All students, faculty, and the pub­lic are invited to attend both the lecture at 2 and the coffee hour at 4.

Student Union Fete at the Exeter Inn

One of the most active groups on campus, the Student Union, dined at the Exeter Inn, April 28. The guest speaker, Mr. Robert Keesey, director of the Memorial Union Building, o f­fered his support to the fast-growing club, and Mr. John Ewart, advisor to S. U. expressed his optimism at the dynamic new program.

President Alan Weinstein, Vice Pres. Kathy Ball, and Sec. Bonnie Bouchard presented various awards to the mem­bers. Past President Doug Trembly received a gavel, and Elaine Guerin, past V. P., received an engraved desk set. Vic Battaglioli, Treasurer, was cited for his three-years’ participa­tion. Linda D eW itt was congratulated for her part in the Miss U N H Pagent.

Visiting campus from her practice teaching, Miss Lesley Buckman re­ceived the Outstanding Student Union Senior Award. Several other members received shields for one and two years’ membership, among them, C a r o l Knowlton, recording secretary.

The evening typified the optimistic spirit and cooperation which S. U. is achieving. As Pres. Alan Weinstein explained, the organization is composed of six committees which work with the executive council.

Various CommitteesThe Special Events Committee con­

ducts the Miss U N H Pagent, Talent Shows, dances. Am ong the fo r th co m ­ing activities is a Spring Weekend Dance featuring the Exotics, (Straf­ford Room, May 12). Also on Sunday, May 21, T H E BROTHERS FOUR will sing at New Hampshire Hall.

The banquet, Christmas decorations at the M UB, intercollegiate conferences and exhibits are sponsored by the In­ternal Affairs committee. Free monthly films and projecting equipment is un­der the direction o f the Films Com­mittee. On and off campus notices of events are made by the publicity com ­mittee. A little-known fact is that the Games Committee of S. U. organizes tournaments in chess, bridge, bowling, and pingpong.

Alan also reports that the Educa­tion committee has shown a great in­crease in activity this year. In addition to instructing in the tape room and hosting coffee hours, they are constant­ly at work on the the new “ Coolege Bowl” endeavor. He is hopeful of Stu­dent Union’s providing more services and reaching more students on campus.
