RE C E N T L Y T H E R I G H T of an anchor repor te r to a t t end and repor t on the pro ceedings of s tudent-facul ty commit tees

has been quest ioned. A repor ter ' s request to sit in on a Religious Life Commi t t ee mee t ing v/as denied and he was asked to leave.

T h e commit tee decided tha t the commit tee cha i rman should be consul ted be fo rehand by a repor ter . T h e cha i rman would then decide wiiether an anchor representat ive would be per-mi t ted to observe. R L C cha i rman Dr. El ton Bruins has since ru led that no repor ters will he al lowed to be present at meet ings of his com-mit tee.

T h e role of the s tudent-facul ty commit tee is to make policy recommenda t ions on all areas of campus life. T h e s tudents and faculty mem-bers on the commit tee o f ten make decisions on mat ters of great significance to the college com-muni ty as a whole.

I t is our con ten t ion that commi t t ee treat ment of significant issues deserves widespread coverage in the anchor, which is the chief source of i n fo rma t ion for the campus. It is the right of a s tuden t not only to know the decisions which affect h im, bu t also the source and reasoning behind these decisions.

It is claimed tha t the minu tes of commit-tees sufficiently present a clear image of what occurs d u r i n g a meet ing. We feel, however, tha t the minu tes fail to present more t han a min-i m u m of in fo rma t ion . Final decisions are re-por ted in the minutes , bu t the deba te leading u p to the r ecommenda t ions finally decided up-on, the other op in ions which might have been given, and the actual spirit of the decision can-not be t ransmi t ted via the minutes .

IT IS NECESSARY to have a repor te r present to have these e lements accurately repor ted . T o receive a clear p ic ture of wha t happens

at a meet ing f rom a commit tee member or t h rough the minu tes is impossible. T h e mem-ber's views are filtered th rough his own per-spective. T h e same holds t rue for the minu tes and their au thor . A par t i c ipa tor in a discussion cannot give as objective an account of what was said as a non-par t ic ipa t ing reporter-observer.

S tudents on the commi t tee are supposed to represent the s tudent body at large. They should be able to b r ing back ideas on issues f rom other s tudents . O t h e r op in ions can hardly be well developed wi thou t a clear repor t of exactly wha t t ranspi red at a meet ing . T h i s re-por t must show how the commi t tee has been th ink ing , not merely wha t the results or lack of results of the i r t h ink ing have been.

It is t rue tha t the s tudents on the commit-tee repor t back to the S tuden t Senate. T h e Sen-ate, however, is an organ of representa t ion , not an organ of i n fo rma t ion . T h e newspaper is the only means tha t a repor t of what happens at the meet ings can be effectively t ransmi t ted to the s tuden t body and faculty.

The chief a rgumen t against hav ing report-ers present at meet ings is tha t their presence inh ib i t s free and candid discussion. W h y should a commit tee member be a f ra id to express his op in ion openly in the presence of a repor ter? T h e r e is more danger of mis in t e rp re t ing news acqui red f rom secondary sources than news ga thered on the spot by the repor te r himself . Why should any part of a commit tee ' s deliber-at ions be kept secret f r om the people whom it affects? T h e exclusion of a r epor te r f rom a mee t ing necessarily carries wi th it an e lement of news suppression.

TH E ANCHOR HAS N E V E R engaged in any "yellow press" activities. T h e report-ing of last year's S tudent Life Commi t t ee

meet ings d id not result in any sensat ional quot -ing or s lanted repor t ing . O u r edi tor ia l policy calls for r epo r t ing of the news of the campus wi th in the bounds of good taste.

T h e anchor staff wishes to repor t the news of the campus to the best of its abili ty. W e feel that the exclusion of our repor ters f rom student-facul ty commit tee meet ings necessarilv re tards our capabil i ty to accomplish this.

T h e cha i rmen of the various commit tees should allow reporters to a t tend their commit-tee meet ings when vital campus issues are be-ing discussed. By ex tend ing this permission, the cha i rmen will d o a service to the newspaper , the College which it serves, and the work of their own committees.

By Bruce R o n d a B e r n a r d M a l a m u d ' s newest no-

It is a g a i n s t this b a c k g r o u n d of h u m a n a g o -ny a s f o u n d in p r e - r e v o l u t i o n a r y Russ i a that M a l a m u d re la tes his s t o r y of Y a k o v Bok, the Jewish f ixer .

A h a n d y m a n , o r f ixer , Bok is impel led b o t h by the d e s e r t i o n of his fa i th less wife Raisl , a n d a des i re to l e a r n m o r e t h a n the .Jewish set t lement, the shtetl , c o u l d p r o v i d e of exper ience , to l e a v e the p ro tec t ion of r a c i a l a n d re-l i g ious a n o n y m i t y a n d t r ave l to Kiev .

L A T E R I N T H E N O V E L , a Jewish l a w y e r r evea l s ( s o m e w h a t t o o d i scu r s ive ly , I t h i n k ) the at-m o s p h e r e of hys te r i ca l p a t r i o t i s m a n d rac ia l c o n s c i o u s n e s s tha t per-v a d e s Russ ia at this time, a n d the o b s e s s i o n with R u s s i a n Jews a s s c a p e g o a t s a n d c o n s p i r a t o r s .

All tha t Bok k n o w s , h o w e v e r , is tha t he h a d been g iven a pos i -t ion in a b r i c k y a r d b e c a u s e of his a ss i s t ance to its o w n e r w h o m he found s p r a w l e d in a street , h a d incur red the w r a t h of the o the r w o r k m e n b e c a u s e of his h o n e s t y , a n d h a d s u d d e n l y been a r r e s t ed fo r m u r d e r . A C h r i s t i a n b o y h a d been f o u n d d e a d in a

nea r -by cave , his b o d y mut i l a t ed , a n d the ant i -semite hys te r ia focus-ad o n Bok , with a n a c c u s a t i o n of r i tua l m u r d e r .

B e r n a r d M a l a m u d is of ten con-s idered a n u n d e r g r o u n d novel is t , not in the sense of be ing a v a n t g a r d e o r se l f -consc ious ly exper i -menta l , but r a t h e r b e c a u s e his l i t e ra ry r e p u t a t i o n is not wide-s p r e a d . M a l a m u d is ce r t a in ly not k n o w n in a n y p o p u l a r sense be-c a u s e of his ex tended intellectual-izing (ce r ta in ly a va l id cr i t ic ism of " T h e F i x e r ; " one wear i e s of be ing p r i v y to so m u c h t h o u g h t a n d so little a c t i o n , ) a n d b e c a u s e of his de l ibera te ly Jewish perspec-tive.

A T W O R S T , M A L A M U D sees the potent ia l fo r su f f e r ing latent in all men but s o m e h o w especia l ly mani fes t in Jews, which c a n eas i ly become, as New York T i m e s cri-tic G e o r g e P^lliot put it, " . . . a c o n t e m p o r a r y s ecu l a r equ iva l en t to the mos t a r r o g a n t Ch r i s t i an i t v

But in this b o o k , we see Y a k o v Bok not as a se l f -conscious Jew su f f e r ing on ly fo r his people , but r a the r bo th Bok a n d the R u s s i a n Jews b e c o m i n g l i t e ra ry s u r r o g a t e s for u n i v e r s a l su f fe r ing ; a n d this is precisely w h y the f ixer is not u n i f o r m l y hero ic in his a g o n y n o r is he cons is ten t ly submis s ive . His is a suf fe r ing by degrees , a n a g o n y by lurches .

I T IS I N this w a y that Y a k o v Bok the r ep resen ta t ive for h u m a n su f fe r ing b e c o m e s Y a k o v Bok the publ ic f igure .

Hut Vakov h a s diff iculty con-

ceiv ing of himself , a m e m b e r of the lowest soc ia l level, a s a na -t ional f igure . It is eas ie r to be fa ta l is t ic a b o u t the ma t t e r , to see his i m p r i s o n m e n t a n d d e g r a d a -tion a s acts in the inev i tab le move -ment of h i s to ry , in which he w a s inex t r i cab ly c a u g h t the m o m e n t he left the shtetl. The l a w y e r re-flects: " '. . . One d a y a C h r i s t i a n b o y w a s f o u n d d e a d in a cave , a n d the re a p p e a r e d on the scene, Y a k o v Bok. . . where y o u c a m e f r o m n o b o d y knew, o r w h o you were, but you c a m e just in t i m e . . . But d o n ' t feel too b a d , if it weren ' t you the re 'd be a n o t h e r in y o u r p l a c e . ' "

Y A K O V H I M S E L F th inks lat-ei . " O n c e y o u leave, y o u ' r e out in the open. It r a i n s a n d snows . It s n o w s h i s to ry , which m e a n s wha t h a p p e n s to s o m e b o d y s ta r t s in a web ou t s ide the p e r s o n a l . " And yet the f ixer f inal ly asse r t s that w h a t he, a d r o p in a Russ i an sea of su f f e r ing s u d d e n l y t h r o w n i n t o publ ic view, does is impor -tant , f o r " o n e th ing I 've l e a r n e d , " he t h i n k s on the w a y to the cour t , " t h e r e ' s no such th ing a s an un-pol i t ical m a n . . . y o u c a n ' t sit still a n d see yourse l f d e s t r o y e d . "

T h i s is p e r h a p s M a l a m u d ' s grea tes t success in this nove l ; he t r a n s f o r m s a to ta l ly ins igni f icant h u m a n c ipher into a he ro , with-out d o i n g violence to the c h a r a c -ter of Bok or the n a t u r e of T s a r i s t R u s s i a n society,

B U T A T T H E S A M E time, this is M a l a m u d ' s greates t fa i l ing:

Y a k o v Bok is su f f e r ing not c a u s e of s o m e m o r a l fa i l ing, cer-t a in ly not because he w a s guil ty of m u r d e r ; he is s u f f e r i n g because of p a r t i c u l a r socia l , poli t ical , a n d e c o n o m i c cond i t i ons in Tsar i s t Russ ia . Yet Bok t r i u m p h s not t h r o u g h specific r e f o r m s or even r evo lu t i on ; r a the r , he a s s u m e s hero ic s t a tu re b e c a u s e of the tri-u m p h of hope a n d h u m a n p r ide within himself.

It is this unse t t l ing mix tu r e of the t e m p o r a l a n d the me taphys i -cal in the f ixer ' s v i c to ry that com-pr i ses m y chief cri t icism of the b o o k .

Review of the News Texas

: Controversy over the findings • of the Warren Commission on the

assassination of President Ken-:• nedy boiled anew as the nation •; marked the third anniversary of j: the tragedy. Continuing attacks f: on the Commission's findings •: prompted Gov. John B. Connaily >: of Texas and Sen. Richard B.

Russell of Georgia to comment, j Gov. Connaily, riding in the S car with President Kennedy, was S wounded by the gunfire in Dal-

las while Sen. Russell was a x member of the investigating x Commission. After stating that £ he accepted the finding that there

was only one assassin—Lee x Harvey Oswald, Gov. Connaily S l a b e l e d Commission critics •x "journalistic scavengers" and S charged that attacks on the re-

port were "politically motivat-

:?• ed." X; General Eisenhower may make

a good-will trip to Asia next v. year at President Johnson's re-$; quest. S A "leveling off" in the build-;$ up of armed forces at home and S: in Vietnam was announced by S the Secretary of Defense Robert S McNamara. Needed recruits will % amount to two-thirds of last X; year's amount or about 600,000 S men. If the rate of volunteers •$ remains the same, 22,000 men a :v month will be drafted.

New York Recent polls show that the na-

tion by a 5-to-l ratio feels that

. ' v» / . v . v . v . v»v . v . * . v . v . v . * . v . v . v . v . v . v . x . v . ; . ; . ;

President Kennedy will be re-membered as a greater Presi-dent than Lyndon Johnson.

The Louis Harris public opin-ion poll reported ihat Gov. Romney now rates as a 54-to-46 per cent favorite for President over Lyndon B. Johnson, and makes the best showing of any Republican who was matched a-gainst Mr. Johnson in the poll. A Gallup Poll showed Mr. Rom-ney is favored among Republi-cans 39 to 31 per cent over Rich-ard Nixon. California's Govern-or-elect Ronald Reagon was third with 8 per cent.

A Gallup Poll also found that only 19 per cent favored a tax increase while 73 per cent op-posed it.

Germany A second election gain by the

National Democratic P a r t y (NPD) has heightened concern about a possible revival of Naz-ism in West Germany. The NPD won 7.4 per cent of the popular vote in Bavaria's State elections Nov. 20. It captured 15 of the 204 seats in the Bavarian State Parliament. The unexpected Ba-varian gain followed an unex-pectedly strong showing two weeks earlier in the state of Hesse, where the NPD got nearly eight per cent of the vote and eight of % seats in the state's parliament. The NPD. master-minded by Fritz Thielen and Adolf von Thadden. was con-structed only two years ago.

A "Grand Coalition" between the ruling Christian Democratic Party and the Social Democratic Party of Willie Brandt seems to be in the making. Kurt-Georg Kiesinger, head of the Christian Democratic party, will be chan-cellor while West Berlin Mayor Willie Brandt will assume the post of vice-chancellor.

Spain This country has a new law

as of Nov. 22, separating the functions of the chief of state and the head of government, both now held by the aging Gen-eralissimo Francisco Franco.

Italy Flood waters from the River

Arno poured across the part of Florence that visitors know best as the city's "historical center." It will take 20 years to repair most of the damaged art objects.

Peking The Red Guards have been

ordered to go home and to do work. Rumors are increasing that Comrade Lin Piao is now directing the course of China in the name of Chairman Mao Tse-tung. Japanese experts on the government of mainland China are now sure that the Red Guards were being used to de-stroy a large block of opposition within the Communist party.

They doubted that either side has been successful and added that in no way would this mean the overthrow of the Communist government.
