NEW YORK CITY TEACHERS END 10-WEEK STRIKE Striking public school teachers voted overwhelmingly Monday to accept an agreement ending a 10-week-long dispute which kept most of New York City's 900 schools closed. Some teachers returned to the classrooms immediately and all schools were expected to be openTuesday. They accepted the agreement by a vote of 17,658 to 2,738.

Smith to reopen embattled San Francisco State College immediately and to "use force if necessary." The 18,000-student school was closed last Thursday after a series of disturbances which included about 50 fires set by arsonists. The disturbances were sparked by the dismissal of George Mason Murray, an English instructor and member of the Black Panthers, who allegedly toldblack students to bring firearms to the campus. After a daylong trustees meeting. State Colleges Chancellor Glenn Dumke told a news conference the "reopening process will begin immediately." He said classes would resume "no later than Wednesday."

NSA CALLS FOR THANKSGIVING FAST TO AID POOR by College Press Service The UJ5. National Student Association (NSA) has called on college students to abstain from their evening meal onThanksgivingand take part in the seventh annual "Fast for Freedom." NSA officials in Washington, D.C., said students can express their concern for the "struggles to end poverty and racism" by contributing the cost of their evening meal to projects developing models for involving white middle class persons in anti-poverty and anti-racism programs. The funds raised would also support the work of independent organizations of poor and minority-group people. NSA is encouraging organizations of fasts on individual campuses, and has preapred promotional material on program ideas. The University is not a member of NSA. PENNSYLWMAN, Vol. LXXXIV No. 83 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Copyright 1968 The Daily Pennsylvanian Tuesday, November 19, 1968 Cooper vetoes ROTC bill By J.L. TELLER Exercising his executive preroga- tive, UPSG President Joseph Cooper Monday night vetoed a bill which would have recommended the removal of credit from the University military and naval science departments. The bill, UPSG 353, passed the Assembly in the Franklin Room of Houston Hall by a 31-3 vote. Cooper, visibly shaken, immedi- ately vetoed the bill, remarking "The issue is more complex than has been presented. The Assembly is not aware of all the ramifications." Cooper also said he felt the present bill was unfair to freshmen and sophomores who had entered the University thinking they would receive credit for the program. He added he had been a part of the ROTC program and considered it worthwhile. UPSG Speaker Tom Brown, com- menting after the meeting on the action, said he didn't think Cooper acted in ' a rational manner." He added. "I don't believe any one student bu the right to veto an action over a 31 -3 vote. "No student has the right to play God," he continued. Brown added he would entertain a motion at the next regularly scheduled meeting to remove the power of the veto from the president. Gil Mathews, co-chairman of the education committee and sponsor of the bill, expressed disappointment at cooper's action. He said, "every- one looks to the student government to act if the student government is to be representative of the student body. We must be on top of the issues.

Wharton students attack course rigidity, pass-fail (Continued on page 5) By JOHN RILEY Reduction of the course load, an expanded pass-fail system, improvement of the advising system, and increased freedom in the selection of courses were prevalent topics of discussion in an open meeting of the Wharton Student Ad- visory Board Monday. A great majority of the 35 students present called for the elimination of two course units from the 42 required for graduation. Jim Wetzler, a student member of the Curri- culum Committee of the Faculty Council which determines curriculum requirements, explained, "This has already been done in principle. The Faculty Council has passed a resolution of intention to drop the course units to 40. The only problem is how to accomplish this." Among the suggestions for immediately lowering the irse units required were the elimination of the natural science requirement, the elimination of one elective and one core course, or the elimination of two electives from a combined group of requirements including free electives, business concentration, and non-business concentration. Students in the audience were not in agreement as to whether the business or the liberal arts area of the Wharton curriculum should be affected most by the elimination of the two units. Marvin I sraelow, a Wharton senior and chairman of SCUE, expressed the view of the advisory board on this contro- versy, saying, "We can force a student into either extreme (business or liberal arts), or we can let him swing by him- self. We are working for flexibility in the tradeoff." The pass-fail question was raised by a member of the audience who asked, "Why do other schools have pass-fail more than Wharton? We're lagging behind." Students suggested the allowance of an increased number of pass- fail courses, a total pass-fail system, or a system by which students would attend only two courses per semester for a grade, and take the rest of their class work on their own initiative with no requirement. Also suggested by the audience was an improved seminar system, which would allow more individual study. Members of the board pointed out that this type of study was possible at the present time with special permission and the guidance of a faculty sponsor. Israelow suggested that Wharton "institutionalize the seminars, take away a course from faculty members so they can concentrate on a seminar." Criticism of the advisory system centered on its im- personal nature. A student in attendance commented, "You walk in, tell the advisor what you're taking, and walk out. You can't get to know him." The major suggestion was to utilize the junior and senior Wharton students to help in the advising freshmen and sophomores. The student as nigger By GERALD FARBER (Reprinted from UCLA Daily Bruin) Students are niggers. When you get that straight, our schools begin to make sense. It's more important, though, to understand why they're niggers. If we follow that question seriously enough, it will lead us past the zone of academic bullshit, where dedicated teachers pass their know- ledge on to a new generation, and into the nitty-gritty of human needs and hang-ups. And from there we can go on to consider whether it might ever be possible for students to come up from slavery. First, let's see what's happen- ing now. Let's look at the role stu- dents play in what we like to call education. At Cal State LA - where I teach, the students have separate and un- equal facilities. If I take them into the faculty dining room, my col- leagues get uncomfortable, as though there were a bad smell. If I eat in the student cafeteria, I become known as the educational equivalent of a niggerlover. In at least one building there are even restrooms which stu- dents may not use. At Cal State, also, there is an unwritten law, barring student-faculty-love-ma king. For- tunately this antimiscegenation law, like its Southern counterpart, is not 100 percent effective. Students at Cal State are political- ly disenfranchised. They are in an academic Lowndes County. Most of them can vote in national elections -- which affect their academic lives.The students are, it is true, allowed to have a toy government of their own. It is a government run for the most part by Uncle Toms and concerned principally with trivia. The faculty and administrators decide what courses will be offered; the students get to choose their own Homecoming Queen. Occasionally, when student leaders get uppity and rebellious, they're either ignored, put off with trivial concessions, or maneuvered expertly out of position. A student at Cal State is expected to know his place. He calls a faculty member "sir" or"Doctor" or*'Pro- fessor" and he smiles and shuffles some as he stands outside the profes- sor's office waiting for permission to enter. The faculty tell him what courses to take (in my department, English, even electives have to be ap- proved by a faculty member); they tell him what to read, what to write, and frequently, where to set the margins on his typewriter.They tell him what's true and what isn't. Some teachers insist that they encourage dissent but they're almost always jiving and every student knows it. Tell the man what Opinion he wants to hear or he'll fail your ass out of the course. When a teacher says "jump," stu- dents jump. I know one professor who refused to take up class time for exams and required students to show up for tests at 6:30 in the morning. And they did, by Godl Another, at exam time, provides answer cards to be fill- ed out -- each one enclosed in a paper bag with a hole cut in the top to see through. Students stick their writing hands in the bags while taking the test. The teacher isn't a provo; I wish he were. He does it to prevent cheating. Another colleague once caught a student reading during one of his lectures and threw her book against the wall. Still another lec- tures his students into stupor and then screams at them in a rage when they fall asleep. Just last week, during the first meeting of a class, one girl got up to leave after about ten minutes had gone by. The teacher rushed over, grabbed her by the arm, saying, "This class is NOT dismissedl" and led her back to her seat. On the same day another teacher began by informing his class that he does not like beards, mustaches, long hair on boys orcapri Pants on girls, and will not tolerate any of that in his class. The class, incidentally, consisted mostly of high school teachers. Even more discourating than this Auschwitz approach to education is the fact that the students take it.They haven't gone through 12 years of public school for nothing. They've learned one thing during those 12 years. They've forgotten their alge- bra. They're hopelessly vague about chemistry and physics.They've grown to fear and resent literature. They write like they've been lobotomized. But, Jesus, can they follow orders! Students don't ask that orders make sense. They give up expecting things to make sense long before they leave elementary school. Things are true because the teacher says they're true. At a very early age we all learn to accept "two truths," as did certain medieval churchmen. Out- side of class, things are true to your tongue, your fingers, your stomach, your heart. Inside class, things are true by reason of authority. And that's just fine because you don't care any- way. Miss Wiedemeyer tells you a noun is a person, place or thing. So let it be. You don't give a rat's ass; she doesn't give a rat's ass. The important thing is to please her. Back in kindergarten, you found out teachers only love children who stand in nice straight lines. And that's where it's been ever since. What school amount to, then, for white and black kids alike, is a 12-year course in how to be slaves. What else could explain what I see in a freshman class? They've got that slave mentality; obliging and ingratiating on the surface but hostile and resistant underneath. As do black slaves, students vary in their awareness of what's going on. Some recognize their own put-on for what it is and even let their rebellion break through to the sur- face now and then. Others -- including most of the "good students" -- have been more deeply brainwashed. They're pathetically eager to be push- ed around. They swallow the bullshit with greedy mouths. They're like those old grey-headed house niggers you can still find in the South who don't see what all the fuss is about because Mr. Charlie "treats us real good. College entrance requirements tend to favor the Toms and screen out the rebels. Not entirely, of course. Some students at Cal State are expert con artists who know perfectly well what's happening. They want the de- gree or the 2-S and spend their years on the old plantation alternate- ly laughing and cursing as they play the game. If their egos are strong enough, they cheat a lot. And, of course, even the Toms are angry down deep somewhere. But it comes out in passive rather than active aggression. They're uncxplainably thick-witted and subject to misread simple ques- tions. They spend their nights me- chanically outlining history chapters while meticulously failing to com- prehend a word of what's in front of them. The saddest cases among both black slaves and student slaves are the ones who have so thoroughly intro- jected their masters'values that their anger is all turned inward. At Cal State these are the kinds for whom every low grade is torture, who stammer and shake when they speak to a professor, who go through an emotional crisis every time they're called upon during class. You can recognize them easily at finals time. Their faces are festooned with fresh pimples; their bowels boil audibly across the room. If there is a Last Judgment, the parents and teachers who created these wrecks are going to burn in hell. So students are niggers. It's time to find out why, and to do this we have to take a long look at Mr. Charlie. The teachers I know best are college professors.Outside the class- room and taken as a group, their most striking characteristic is timid- ity. They're short on balls. Just look at their working condi- tions. At a time when even migrant workers have begun to fight and win, college professors are still afraid to make more than a token effort to im- prove on their pitiful economic status. In Californis state colleges the fa- culties are screwed regularly and vigorously by the Governor and Legis- (Continued on page 4) /

Wharton students attack course rigidity, pass-fail

(Continued on page 5)

By JOHN RILEY Reduction of the course load, an expanded pass-fail

system, improvement of the advising system, and increased freedom in the selection of courses were prevalent topics of discussion in an open meeting of the Wharton Student Ad- visory Board Monday.

A great majority of the 35 students present called for the elimination of two course units from the 42 required for graduation. Jim Wetzler, a student member of the Curri- culum Committee of the Faculty Council which determines curriculum requirements, explained, "This has already been done in principle. The Faculty Council has passed a resolution of intention to drop the course units to 40. The only problem is how to accomplish this."

Among the suggestions for immediately lowering the irse units required were the elimination of the natural

science requirement, the elimination of one elective and one core course, or the elimination of two electives from a combined group of requirements including free electives, business concentration, and non-business concentration.

Students in the audience were not in agreement as to whether the business or the liberal arts area of the Wharton curriculum should be affected most by the elimination of the two units.

Marvin I sraelow, a Wharton senior and chairman of SCUE,

expressed the view of the advisory board on this contro- versy, saying, "We can force a student into either extreme (business or liberal arts), or we can let him swing by him- self. We are working for flexibility in the tradeoff."

The pass-fail question was raised by a member of the audience who asked, "Why do other schools have pass-fail more than Wharton? We're lagging behind." Students suggested the allowance of an increased number of pass- fail courses, a total pass-fail system, or a system by which students would attend only two courses per semester for a grade, and take the rest of their class work on their own initiative with no requirement.

Members of the board pointed out that this type of study was possible at the present time with special permission and the guidance of a faculty sponsor.

Criticism of the advisory system centered on its im- personal nature. A student in attendance commented, "You walk in, tell the advisor what you're taking, and walk out. You can't get to know him." The major suggestion was to utilize the junior and senior Wharton students to help in the advising freshmen and sophomores.

The student as nigger By GERALD FARBER

(Reprinted from UCLA Daily Bruin)

Students are niggers. When you get that straight, our schools begin to make sense. It's more important, though, to understand why they're niggers. If we follow that question seriously enough, it will lead us past the zone of academic bullshit, where dedicated teachers pass their know- ledge on to a new generation, and into the nitty-gritty of human needs and hang-ups. And from there we can go on to consider whether it might ever be possible for students to come up from slavery.

First, let's see what's happen- ing now. Let's look at the role stu- dents play in what we like to call education.

At Cal State LA - where I teach, the students have separate and un- equal facilities. If I take them into the faculty dining room, my col- leagues get uncomfortable, as though there were a bad smell. If I eat in the student cafeteria, I become known as the educational equivalent of a niggerlover. In at least one building there are even restrooms which stu- dents may not use. At Cal State, also, there is an unwritten law, barring student-faculty-love-ma king. For- tunately this antimiscegenation law, like its Southern counterpart, is not 100 percent effective.

Students at Cal State are political- ly disenfranchised. They are in an academic Lowndes County. Most of them can vote in national elections -- which affect their academic lives.The students are, it is true, allowed to have a toy government of their own. It is a government run for the most part by Uncle Toms and concerned principally with trivia. The faculty and administrators decide what courses will be offered; the students get to choose their own Homecoming Queen. Occasionally, when student leaders get uppity and rebellious, they're either ignored, put off with trivial concessions, or maneuvered expertly out of position.

A student at Cal State is expected to know his place. He calls a faculty member "sir" or"Doctor" or*'Pro-

fessor" and he smiles and shuffles some as he stands outside the profes- sor's office waiting for permission to enter. The faculty tell him what courses to take (in my department, English, even electives have to be ap- proved by a faculty member); they tell him what to read, what to write, and frequently, where to set the margins on his typewriter.They tell him what's true and what isn't. Some teachers insist that they encourage dissent but they're almost always jiving and every student knows it. Tell the man what

Opinion he wants to hear or he'll fail your ass out of the course.

When a teacher says "jump," stu- dents jump. I know one professor who refused to take up class time for exams and required students to show up for tests at 6:30 in the morning. And they did, by Godl Another, at exam time, provides answer cards to be fill- ed out -- each one enclosed in a paper bag with a hole cut in the top to see through. Students stick their writing hands in the bags while taking the test. The teacher isn't a provo; I wish he were. He does it to prevent cheating. Another colleague once caught a student reading during one of his lectures and threw her book against the wall. Still another lec- tures his students into stupor and then screams at them in a rage when they fall asleep.

Just last week, during the first meeting of a class, one girl got up to leave after about ten minutes had gone by. The teacher rushed over, grabbed her by the arm, saying, "This class is NOT dismissedl" and led her back to her seat. On the same day another teacher began by informing his class that he does not like beards, mustaches, long hair on boys orcapri Pants on girls, and will not tolerate any of that in his class. The class, incidentally, consisted mostly of high school teachers.

Even more discourating than this

Auschwitz approach to education is the fact that the students take it.They haven't gone through 12 years of public school for nothing. They've learned one thing during those 12 years. They've forgotten their alge- bra. They're hopelessly vague about chemistry and physics.They've grown to fear and resent literature. They write like they've been lobotomized. But, Jesus, can they follow orders!

Students don't ask that orders make sense. They give up expecting things to make sense long before they leave elementary school. Things are true because the teacher says they're true. At a very early age we all learn to accept "two truths," as did certain medieval churchmen. Out- side of class, things are true to your tongue, your fingers, your stomach, your heart. Inside class, things are true by reason of authority. And that's just fine because you don't care any- way. Miss Wiedemeyer tells you a noun is a person, place or thing. So let it be. You don't give a rat's ass; she doesn't give a rat's ass.

The important thing is to please her. Back in kindergarten, you found out teachers only love children who stand in nice straight lines. And that's where it's been ever since.

What school amount to, then, for white and black kids alike, is a 12-year course in how to be slaves. What else could explain what I see in a freshman class? They've got that slave mentality; obliging and ingratiating on the surface but hostile and resistant underneath.

As do black slaves, students vary in their awareness of what's going on. Some recognize their own put-on for what it is and even let their rebellion break through to the sur- face now and then. Others -- including most of the "good students" -- have been more deeply brainwashed. They're pathetically eager to be push- ed around. They swallow the bullshit with greedy mouths. They're like those old grey-headed house niggers you can still find in the South who don't see what all the fuss is about because Mr. Charlie "treats us real good.

College entrance requirements

tend to favor the Toms and screen out the rebels. Not entirely, of course. Some students at Cal State are expert con artists who know perfectly well what's happening. They want the de- gree or the 2-S and spend their years on the old plantation alternate- ly laughing and cursing as they play the game. If their egos are strong enough, they cheat a lot. And, of course, even the Toms are angry down deep somewhere. But it comes out in passive rather than active aggression. They're uncxplainably thick-witted and subject to misread simple ques- tions. They spend their nights me- chanically outlining history chapters while meticulously failing to com- prehend a word of what's in front of them.

The saddest cases among both black slaves and student slaves are the ones who have so thoroughly intro- jected their masters'values that their anger is all turned inward. At Cal State these are the kinds for whom every low grade is torture, who stammer and shake when they speak to a professor, who go through an emotional crisis every time they're called upon during class. You can recognize them easily at finals time. Their faces are festooned with fresh pimples; their bowels boil audibly across the room. If there is a Last Judgment, the parents and teachers who created these wrecks are going to burn in hell.

So students are niggers. It's time to find out why, and to do this we have to take a long look at Mr. Charlie.

The teachers I know best are college professors.Outside the class- room and taken as a group, their most striking characteristic is timid- ity. They're short on balls.

Just look at their working condi- tions. At a time when even migrant workers have begun to fight and win, college professors are still afraid to make more than a token effort to im- prove on their pitiful economic status. In Californis state colleges the fa- culties are screwed regularly and vigorously by the Governor and Legis-

BRINGING IT BACK HOME

Sir: The Penn student does not have to pull Wednesday's DP out of the trashcan to read again the warning that Julian Bond issued at the end of his speech at Irvine. One only has to walk to the North-East corner of 37th and Ludlow (between Chestnut and Market) to see that a person unknown to me, probably black and sincere, has written the same-com- ment: "God gave Noah the rainbow sign no more water, fire next time."

This is on a piece of sheet metal that covers the door to a small store and apartment which is scheduled for demolition, and whose residents have been dislocated to make way for The University City Science Center.

I tell this in hope that the con- cerned students at Penn will realize that the injustices and oppression which cause the alienation and re- bellion and produce riots in our cities and a warning like the above are not only caused by racist cops or job discrimination but are also ln-

' stitutionally caused. These things are not only fostered at city hall, Capital Hill, or in far away Vietnam, but fostered as close as College Hall. This means that a movement can be extremely important, very ed- ucational, and directly helpful to people if it also involves itself in a cause here at home.

The Trustee's institution, (not mine ), The University of Penn- sylvania, decided that all the people between 34th and 40th streets along Market Street had to go to make way for a Science Center. William Day, chairman of the board of trustees, said at Monday's open get- together that the benevolent U of P was involved in UCSC because it is what Phila. needs. That one only has to go to the RAND center at Cambridge, Mass. or the Institute for Advanced Studies at Princeton to see the beautiful communities and numerous jobs that those science cen- ters produced. He can't pull the wool over my. eyes. I've been there and have seen the $30,000 houses of college graduates who are practically the only employees of research in- stitutions. I know that there are more job openings for scientists than there are scientists so they're not the unemployed. I know that Phila. needs jobs for the unemployed people in this city; they're discontent and des- perately want to work. They deserve more than dead end janitorial jobs. Jobs where they can learn a skill and advance themselves are needed. I know that Phila. needs 50,000 units of- low cost, low income housing immediately to replace the slum hous- ing in #5rth, South, and West Phila: A housing boom in Phila. would create thousands of skilled jobs.

But this isn't what is being done. Instead UCSC forces 1,000 people (and in all of Area III 3,500 more are forced out by other related in- stitutions) into the presently inade-

quate supply, and proceeds to use badly needed funds to build a service center for industry and the military. Why was this done? Phila. needs other things..

It was done because the people who made the decision as to how to use the funds were from business and the government. The industries will benefit in profits from the contractual research done at the science center and the banks needed to invest their money in something profitable and low Income housing isn't profitable any- more.

Well I'm damn sick and tired of the results we've been getting from these selfish decision makers. It's time.'we began to plan for people, not profits. I ask everyone with a con- science to join Julian Bond, myself, and many others both here at Penn and all across the U.S. to begin to push for a change to People Power instead of money power, to having the people decide instead of having the moneyed decide.

Here at Penn we are building a movement that demands these things in concrete terms. We are going to make the "deciders" answer for their decisions and make just re- tribution to the people hurt. We are going to show them where the power of any society is really at: it's in the people. We are having a rally at III A.M. on Tuesday, November 19 in Houston Hall Auditorium to open up this issue. Will you, the people, come?

Joseph Mikuliak SDS Steering Committee Member

SPEAKING P«»EELY

Sir: Once again you have unveiled the hypocrisy with which your political philosophy continually clouds itself. Not too long ago the DP was com- plaining bitterly when the FBI asked it to divulge the name of an anti-war advertiser. Cries of "Free Speech!" and "Free Press!" resounded from the lips of the liberal elements on campus.

But now the situation has changed. The Dow Chemical Company wishes to come on campus to Interview Penn students. Unlike the first case, this involves no coercion or threats, and is therefore even more clearcut. Penn students, despite the fact that the DP and SDS find it incompre- hensible or immoral, actually want to work for Dow.

Yet who is it that now cry for the banishment of Dow from campus, for the suppression of an individual's right to be interviewed on campus, for the abridgement of any corpora- tion's right to hold these interviews. It seems to me that the same people who fought so tenaciously for their own rights are now fighting to deny the rights of a company and indi- viduals who have committed the "unpardonable sin" of disagreeing

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIM

with them. If this is indeed the case, then

how can any responsible and reason- able person follow the leadership of these self-styled protectors of (their own?) individual freedom?

(NOCKS KNOCKING

Sir: I address this letter to the members of SDS and Resistance who placed a letter in the DP Nov. 7, 1968.

It seems to me that it is very easy for you to repeatedly "knock'* the University. It is also my im'- pression, with some cause I think, that the purpose of Universities and this University in particular are under scrutiny and are changing. The Uni- versity, now preparing to restructure itself and redefine its goals is not definite and narrow-minded about its future. Maybe some of you shouldn't be so definite and narrow-minded either.

It also seems to me that it is easy to take one administrator, Clark Kerr and quote from his book "USES OF THE UNIVERSITY," and use what he says for your own purposes. How- ever, it seems that there are other administrators and concerned people who are still in doubt as to the role of a university. If you feel that the University should concur totally with Mr. Kerr's feeling on the subject, why not say so in plain English — Why not sponsor a symposium on the role of a University presenting many views on the issue — perhaps that way something can be resolved — perhaps students on this campus would be able to think clearly about this University's role and responsibility to society and its students -- once students have really given this ques- tion some thought, perhaps their opinion as a whole can be voiced and can be effective —

Furthermore, I do not know about anyone else, but I chose to come to this University, and I am responsible for that choice — I have also chosen not to let anything isolate me from ather people — The University is not responsible for isolating people from each other —people are responsible! I

I am not blindly devoted to this school, I agree that society is in pret- ty bad shape — that competition for grades instead of concentration on learning is frustrating . . . however, when you talk about status . . . that is another story. Your status level is something set for yourself — why did you choose Penn? . . . be- cause it has status? I hope not; after all you've expounded. . . you talk about principles, you talk about how bad society is, don't contradict your- self by feeling compelled to abide by the status values that society has setl

The University? What the hell is * 'the University'' that everyone keeps referring to? — it is people, human

beings ... I cannot blame "The University'' for one teacher who told me there just wasn't time to discuss something because we had to have the exam so we wouldn't fall behind sche- dule, and I don't necessarily praise the University for the good work one professor might do.

In part, this letter is addressed to certain parts of the letter that appeared in the DP on November 7th, and in part, this letter is ad- dressed to the rest of the University community-the silent majority who don't say anything and don't care to, and are either content with the minori- ty voice on campus who aren't neces- sarily representing them, or are too lazy or too afraid to speak up for themselves ... I, for one, feel The Time Has Come-the "vocal minority" must not be the only ones who speak up! "The University" is not all good, but it is not all bad eitherl

TALKING TO THE TRUSTEES

Sir: Allow me to clear up some of the

misconceptionsconcerning the recent trustees meeting which are held by some students and repeated in your recent article.

The Board of Trustees of the Uni- versity is the final depository of all power in the University. This answers very clearly the oft-repeated question of who initiated the Science Center. The trustees told us very directly at the meeting, they did. The exact dates of the decisions made are, as the trustees said, rather irre- levant.

The reason for building the Science Center was also rather clearly stated. The city, state, and industry sorely leeded this type of institution. Mr. Trescher clearly told the students that this was so. After all, he said, the institute in Cambridge helped obtain highway 128 around Boston and the institute at Princeton helped to bring all those wonderful drug firms to the area.

The oft-repeated question of the students concerning what was being done for the residents of Mantua and other areas was answered by a ple- thora of figures concerning relocation but more accurately by the trustees repeatedly stated interest in bringing big money to this area just as the one at Stanford had done for California (they failed to mention that Stanford does far and away more secret research than any other university in America). *

The overall impression of the meeting was that the trustees were

not in the least way responding to the desires of the students at the meeting. They could later pass this away by saying that those present at the meeting were unrepresentative of student opinion. I submit that out of the over 100 students present only three were members of SDS, that the meeting was open to all students, and that if every large meeting of students is passed urf as unrepresentative there is no way of speaking to the trustees.

It is for this reason that after an hour and one-half of lies and unre- sponsiveness from the trustees that my call for the trustees resignation was a very direct expression of the will of many present. Mr. Trescher interrupted me several times to ask if it was the will of those present that I might be allowed to speak. He was surprised each time that the vote was enormously in my favor and even more surprised when my call for trustees' resignation brought on loud applause.

In the final analysis, however, this is not really a question for Mr. Tres- cher to decide. The University of Pennsylvania is not 40 old men. It is the students and faculty. Or perhaps I should say it should be.

In order to keep your contact lenses as comfortable and convenient as they were meant to be, you have to take care of them. But until now you needed two or more separate solutions to properly prepare and maintain your contacts. Not with Lensine. Lensine is the one lens solution for complete contact lens care.

Cleaning your contacts with Lensine retards the buildup of foreign deposits on the lenses. And soaking your contacts in Lensine overnight assures you of proper lens hygiene. You get a free soaking case on the bottom of every bottle of Lensine.

It has been demonstrated that improper storage between wearings may result in the growth of bacteria on the lenses. This is a sure cause of eye irritation and in some cases can endanger your vision. Bacteria cannot grow in Lensine which is sterile, self-sanitizing, and antiseptic.

Just a drop or two of Lensine, before you insert your- lens, coats and lubricates it allowing the lens to float more freely in

the eye's fluids. That's because Lensine is an "isotonic" solution, which means that it blends with the natural fluids of the eye.

Let your contacts be the convenience they were meant to be. Get some Lensine, from the Murine Company, Inc.

The student as nigger (Continued from page 1)

lature and yet they still won't offer any solid resistance. They lie on their stomachs with their pants down, mum- bling catch phrases like "profes- sional dignity and meaningful dia- logue."

Professors were no different when I was an undergraduate at UCLA during the McCarthy era; it was like a cattle stampede as they rushed to cop out. And in more recent years, I found that my being arrested in sit- ins brought from my colleagues not so much approval or condemnation as open-mouthed astonishment. "You could lose your job!"

Now, of course, there's the Viet- namese war. It gets some opposition from a few teachers. Some support it. But a vast number of professors who know perfectly well what's happening, are copping out again. And in the high schools, you can forget it. Stillness reigns.

I'm sure why teachers are so chic kens hit. It could be that academic training itself forces a split between thought and action. It might also be that the tenured security of a teaching job attracts timid persons and, furthermore, the teaching, like police work, pulls in persons who are unsure of themselves and need weapons and the other external trappings of auth- ority.

At any rate teachers ARE short on balls. And, as Judy Eisenstein has eloquently pointed out, the classroom offers an artificial and protected environment in which they can exer- cise their will to power. Your neigh-

bors may drive a better car; gas station attendants may intimidate you; your wife may dominate you; the State Legislature may shit on you; but in the classroom, by God, students do what you say — or else. The grade isn't a cop's gun, but in the long run it's more powerful. At your personal whim -- any time you choose — you can keep 35 students up for nights and have the pleasure of seeing them walk into the classroom pasty-faced and red-eyed carrying a sheaf of type- written pages, with title page, MLA footnotes and margins set at 15 and 91.

The general timidity which causes eachers to make niggers of their

students usually includes a more specific fear — fear of the students themselves. After all, students are different, just like black people. You stand exposed in front of them, know- ing that their interests, their values may suspect that you yourself are not the most engaging of persons. What then can project you from their ridi- cule and scorn? Respect for auth- ority. That's what. It's the police- man's gun again. The white bwana's pitch helmet. So you flaunt that auth- ority. You wither whispers with a murderous glance. You crush objec- tors with erudition and heavy irony. And worst of all, you make your own attainments seem not accessible but awesomely remote. You conceal your massive ignorance - and parade a slender learning.

You might also want to keep in mind that he was a nigger once him- self and has never really gotten over

'New Party' will invade campuses

By TOM MILLER College Press Service

Picture a Wallace supporter at a political rally sitting next to a former George McGovern backer, both of them supporting the same candidates and platform enthusiastically. Now imagine both major parties totally realigned in terms of goals and programs. Carried out to its full extent, these are some of the things the New Party is about.

New Party is the official name of a political non-structure which grew out of caucuses in Chicago last June at the Coalition for an Open Convention. The Coalition met, drew up legal battle-plans for late August in Chicago, announced it was bringing hundreds of thousands of people to Chicago demonstrating for an open convention; folded when denied a rally permit there, and abviously did not get an open convention.

The New Party has organized itself onto the ballot in nine states. It has people working in 20 more states to get a firm base there. The goal is to become a permanent national political force.

New Party officials cite statistics to show where they think its potential strength will come from. Foremost among the groups called on to fill the party roles are the 21 million registered independents. Following behind them are those Democrats and Republicans disenchanted with the current leadership in their parties.

Chapters are already in operation at the University of Delaware, Colorado State, University of Washington, University of Arizona and others.

Keeping track of the college activity is student coordinator Roger Blacklow. explains that at schools where New Party has been set up, it has worked with other

it. And there are more causes, some of which are better described in sociological than psychological terms. Work them out, it's not hard. But in the meantime what we've got on our hands is a whole lot of niggers. And what makes this particularly grim

is that the student has less chance than the black man of getting out of his bag. Because the student doesn't even know he's in it. That, more or less, is what's happening in higher education. And the results are stag- gering.

For one thing, damn little educa- tion takes place in the schools. How could it? You can't educate slaves; you can only train them. Or, to use an even uglier word, you can only program them.

Educational oppression is trickier to fight than racial oppression. If /ou're a black rebel, they can't exile you; they either have to intimidate you or kill you. But in high school or college, they can just bounce you out of the fold. And they do. Rebel students and renegade faculty mem- bers get smothered or shot down with devastating accuracy. In high school, it's usually the student who gets it; in college, it's more often the teach- er. Others get tired of fighting and voluntarily leave the system. This may be a mistake though. Dropping out of college, for a rebel, is a little like going North, for a Negro. You can't really get away from it so you might as well stay and raise hell.

How do you raise hell? That's a whole other article. But just for a start, why not stay with the analogy. What have black people done? They have, first of all, faced the fact of their slavery. They've stopped kidd- ing themselves about an eventual re- ward in that Great Watermelon Patch in the sky. They've organized; they've decided to get freedom now, and they've started taking it.

Students, like black people, have immense unused power. They could theoretically, insist on participation in their own education. They could make academic freedom bilateral. They could teach their teachers to thrive on love and admiration, rather than fear and respect, and to lay down their weapons. Students could discover community. And they could learn to dance by dancing on the IBM cards. They could make coloring books out of the catalogs and they could put the grading system in a museum. They could raze one set of walls and let life come blowing into the classroom. They could raze another set of walls and let education flow out and flood the streets. They could turn the classroom into where it's at -- a "field of action" as Peter Marin describes it. And, believe it or not, they could study eagerly and learn prodigiously for the best of

politically-oriented activist groups. But there is little member- ship overlap between groups like Students for a Democratic Society and the New Party because, as Black- low puts it, "Our basic constituency right now is McCarthyites, liberal Republicans and Independents."

Blacklow says, "We want to make the McCarthy movement a permanent working force, not just aonce-every- four-year phenomenon."

Part of that working force will involve extra-political activity. New Party hopes to take on community projects like neighborhood health clinics, local legal aid centers and "voter consciousness" projects.Also in the long-range plans is establishing neighborhood schools.

Wallace supporters are naturals for the Party, its staff insists. Many are not racists, but are simply com- pletely alienated by their unrespon- sive governments and are looking for an alternative to the private- interest- dominated Democratic and Republican parties. New Party position papers will emphasize that the party wants to put people in control of their governments, and hence of their per- sonal destinies. While this makes sense on paper, it will be hard to align Wallace types with the Southern blacks who are also counted on for support.

Many Wallace backers, however, have signed New Party petitions. Other support is coming from ser- vicemen, who regularly call New Party offices asking what they can do to help out.

The initial drive for the Party came with the McCarthy movement, but a party official insists, "It would have been formed even if McCarthy had not entered the race. The time was ripe for such a movement. Mc- Carthy simply personified it."

New Party chapters have sprung up on a number of campuses around the country. They usually appear soon after a campus speech by the party's prime organizer, Marcus G. Raskin, or its best known member. Dr. Ben- jamin Spock. Raskin, the one defen- dant acquitted in the "Boston five" draft conspiracy case, is co-director of the Institute for Policy Studies, an independent "think-tank" in Washing- ton.

Once a New Party gets started on campus, it may branch off into what- ever political action it deems neces- sary. For instance, at the University of Maryland, they are taking a role in the drive to unionize university employees. At other schools they are leading the fight to disarm campus cops.

New Party is the only political

Survey concludes Vietnam major '68 issue for protests

By United Press International

Vietnam was the major cause of organized protests by college students during the past academic year, ac- cording to a survey of 800 colleges released recently.

The survey by the Educational Testing Service showed that dormi- tory rules, civil rights, and student participation in college government were, in that order, the next most frequently protested issues.

The report said organized groups demonstrating against most issues rarely made up more than 10 percent of a college student body. It cited as an example protests against U£. policy in Vietnam, saying the demon- strations averaged about 5 percent of their respective student bodies.

The findings were based in a ques- tionnaire survey of deans of students in 860 accredited four-year colleges and universities. Each dean was asked to note the extent of organized student protest over 27 educational, social and political issues during the 1967-68 academic year.

The study found 38 percent of the deans reported Vietnam demonstra-

tions on their campuses last year, 34 percent protests over dormitory rules, and 29 percent over local, off- campus civil rights matters. Protests about greater student participation in campus policy making was reported at 27 percent of the schools.

In a similar survey in 1965, it was found that civil rights was the most frequent cause for student ac- tivisim, followed in order by campus food service and Vietnam.

Bulldog gains mate to coeducate By United Press International

Score a prestigious point for the fair sex. Come next fall, 500 of them will begin to live, work and play at

Yale University for the first time since its founding, 267 years ago. While some of old Ell grumbled, there was overall deep satis-

faction at the Ivied campus where the all-male tradition dates back to 1701.

Yale President Kingman Brewster took the historic step Thurs- day, hailed it as "a major advance in the quality of Yale education," and won resounding approval from the University faculty, who gave the youthful head of the Ivy League school a standing ovation.

Brewster's proposal, to cost upwards of $55 million, calls for 250 freshman women to be admitted in the fall of 1969. They would live on campus, while another 250 women, transferees from other schools, probably will take up residence off-campus.

With the decision to go coed, Yale joins Cornell and the Univer- sity of Pennsylvania as the three hry League schools with true co- education. Harvard, arch rival of the Eli, has -- like Columbia and Brown — a coordinate women's institution but not the coeducation.

Princeton has an exchange program with Wellesley College and Dartmouth announced last last month it would take part in an ex- change program among 10 colleges, five male and five female.

The reaction from rival Harvardwas rich in goodwill. "Yale is to be congratulated on having the courage to discard

a cherished tradition and to embrace the shape of things to come," commented Bruce Chalmers, master of Winthrop House and a pro- fessor of Metallurgy.

"We're all very happy for them. We hope Princeton will get the idea now. I think it will do a lot for the educational and social at- mosphere down there. Girls add something," said Richard Strickler, a Harvard Junior from Branford, Conn., about 10 miles east of the Yale campus.

And from Radcliffe College, coordinate women's institution to Harvard, Marily Neumann, a junior from Springfield, Mass., said, "It's a great idea. I think most Radcliffe women would agree with me that it's a completely unnatural situation for a school to be all male. Yale's finally gotten the idea."

Yale went courting exactly one year ago and got turned down. Its proposal was to prestigious Vassar College. Yale wanted the girls to move lock, stock and barrel from Poughkeepsie, N.Y. to the New Haven campus. Vassar said thank you, no.

The question of whether to coeducate was never in doubt, Brew- ster said. "It was only a matter of how and when. The problem of making a great institution turn at a sharp corner is not easy if you are trying to keep together groups which are absolutely essential to the university."

Brewster's plan now faces two hurdles. He must implement it in time for full admissions in the 1969 fall semester. Perhaps more serious is a wave of reaction from members of Trumbull College, where the 250 freshmen would be houses.

Undergraduates at Trumbull are not reluctant to give up some of their rooms to the young ladles, but they think the girls should be spread campus wide with full integration of housing.

Student sentiment at Yale is for immediate coeducation and integrated male-female housing in the residential colleges, said Tom Linden Jr., 20, of Beverly Hills, Calif.

Herstyey: politics, not morality, governs war

By United Press International Selective Service Director Lewis

B. Hershey said Thursday the question of deciding the morality of any par- ticular war — such as Vietnam — is a political, not a religious question.

He challenged a pastoral letter by

the nation's Roman Catholic bishops which called on Congress to amend the draft law to permit young men object- ing to a particular war — but not to war in general — to be exempt from military service.

"It's no longer a religious ques- tion, but a political one," Hershey said of the idea that a person can support some wars but not others. "If you say you object to all wars, I can't object to that," he said. "Re- ligion is an individual thing."

"But what kind of religious belief have you got that causes you to reject some wars and not others? That doesn't seem to me to be a religious question but a political one.*'

Hershey, a frequent and vocal critic of antiwar demonstrators, con- tested the suggestion that it should be left up to an individual's conscience whether he would join the military if he objected to the current war.

"If everybody's conscience is al- lowed to roam at will, you could justify anything," Hershey said.

Saying he didn't know whether the bishops had proposed any "sensible alternative" to present laws, Hershey added, "Just what kind of criteria would you use to decide how you are going to let them (potential draftees) pick their wars?"

home many blacks, students, profes- sionals and academicians can find. "Having a New Party is unquestion- ably a political effort to avoid mass violence in the United States by offer- ing a reconstructive alternative," says Florida chairman Robert Kunst.

And Eugene McCarthy's recent an- nouncement that he will not run for office as a Democrat unless "signifi- cant changes" occur gives new hope to fourth-party movements for the future.

Warren urges national college student conference for action

By United Press International

Chief Justice Earl Warren pro- posed Nov. 10 a national conference of college students and faculty mem- bers to search for a program of "conciliation among our age groups."

Such a conciliation was vital, he said, if the nation and the world civilization were to survive in an age of increasingly rapid scientific and technological advancement.

"The student revolt on the college campus is hardly a way to achieve wisdom, although it may prove ef- fective in shaking the establishment out of complacency and smugness," Warren said in a speech at the Louis Marshall Award dinner of the Jewish Theological Seminary of America at the Essex House Hotel in New York.

"There must be a better way of creative confrontation than we have thus far discovered and used, if in- stitutions are to be made relevant to our times, on the one hand, and on the other hand they are to avoid tragic errors, which might indeed be irre- versible," Warren said.

The Chief Justice suggested the nation look back to its founders who were faced with a similar apparent impasse and found a solution in the principle of Federalism. "It seems to me that our situation today calls for a new type of cultural Federalism," he said.

As part of this attempt to "come to grips with basic approaches to life," Warren said it was vital to "take the struggle among the age groups from the streets, and on the college campus, to a forum of free interchange of ideas."

What is needed. Warren said, is "some new institution, through which new knowledge could be transmuted into the type of wisdom which once upon a time the foremost philosophers created in the course of a long life.

"It should be an institution in which the vision, the dream, the power of innovation, the daring of youth is brought into contact with the mellow practicality, the concern for possible danger, the fear of unnecessary risk, characteristic of the more mature and even the old," he said.

Warren urged The Jewish Theo- logical Seminary, which, he noted, is credited with "creating the idea of ecumenism as it is now understood," to call a conference at its Herbert

H. Lehman Institute of ethics of representatives of students and fa- culties from colleges and universities throughout the country.

Out of this conference, he said, "might emerge a program for action, a program which would lead to con- ciliation among our age groups.

"From this might emerge an in- ternational forum, where young, middle-aged and even old among all peoples would participate, regularly, meeting with one another, thinking with one another, hoping with one another, and striving together instead of against each other."

'Justice incidental to law, order' - Hoover

By United Press International

J. Edgar Hoover, saying,"Justice is merely incidental to law and order," is ready to fight crime under President-elect Nixon.

After an hour-long meeting with Nixon Thursday during which they discussed "internal security mat- ters," the FBI Director said the coun- try is in "serious trouble" from law- lessness.

He said he would remain on the job to lead the fight against crime if Nixon asked him to stay.

In an interview broadcast na- tionally Thursday on the CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite, Hoover said, "Vigorous law enforcement" is the only answer to the nation's crime problem.

The interview brought this ex- change:

Q. Did the President-elect indi- cate whether he would like you to continue on? A. I can't make any statement on that. Q. How do you feel? You are looking pretty good. A. I feel fine. I think hard work is good for anybody. I have been working hard for many years. Q. How many more years would you work hard? A. As long as my health sustains me. I passed 100 percent a physical exam- ination last summer — at the clinic in La Jolla, Calif. Q. Did you discuss the status of the nation at all? A. With whom? Q. With Mr. Nixon. A. I can't discuss that. No. Q. Well, as far as you are concerned, what is the status of the nation at this point? A. A lot of hard work on the part of all investigative agencies of the gov-

QUESTION: We arrived from practice five minutes after they stopped serving dinner at Houston Hall and they refused to serve. —Freshman Crew

ACTION: Ted Nash, coach for freshman crew, told Action Line there is no problem with the University Dining Service. He explained if the team is going to be late returning from practice, due to weather, traffic or any other special problem, the Dining Service is notified and a specified number of meals are saved until 7:15 P.M. Nash stressed all the coaches are happy with the Dining Service's cooperation. He said he has heard no complaints from crew members and is sorry individual names were not on the complaint so he might be able to get further information. Nash feels if this is a valid complaint, it is probably because you were "fiddling around in the shower room." Action Line suggests less soft soap and more responsibility.

QUESTION: Where can I find out about getting a National Science Foundation grant for some research I'm doing? —Alfred Sanfilippo

ACTION: You cannot get an NSF grant yourself, since they are only granted to faculty members, but for information, Howard Vail, director of the Office of Project Research and Grants, suggests you write directly to the NSF in Washington, D£. For information on other sources of funds write: Fellow- ship Office, National Research Council, 2101 Constitution Ave., N.W., Washington, D£„ 20418.

QUESTION: How are the bells in Irvine controlled? —PjQ.W.

ACTION: Quasimodo is dead. Long live Quasimodol The miracles of modern science have had you fooled. Until now that is. Through the great generosity of Anthony Codding, the man who pulls the strings, the man who makes it all work, the man behind the mystery, the director of Houston Hall and Irvine Auditorium, we bring you the truth about one of the greatest myths on campus (second only to the Myth of Irvine, itself). No bells. It's all in your mind. (Mass hallucination if you wereat"Dr.Zhivago" last Saturday nightl) The bell sound heard every hour on the hour between 8 AJvl. and 10 PM. originates from a disc, controlled by a clock, connected to an amplifier, which leads to loudspeakers on the roof of Irvine. The concert bells which can sometimes be heard from Irvine are really a carillon, a musical instru- ment, controlled from a keyboard in a small brown box in the orchestra pit. The sound comes from a set of metal plates which are connected to a powerful amplification system. This was explained to us by Bruce Mont- gomery, director of musical activities. We don't hear any bells, but if you still think you do, contact tr.- Student Psychiatric Clinic, 594-8295.

(Continued from page 1) it certainly will not be through pro- ceedings like tonight. I regret that when the bill carried 31-3—when the inten t of the Assembly was to pass the bill—that Cooper would veto it."

Mathews added he hoped some definitive action by the Assembly would be taken on the bill this week, as the Committee on Instruction in both the College and Wharton will make its final decision this week.

Mathews stands firmly on his committee's work. "I think we have covered the gamut of this issue."

After Cooper vetoed the bill, Steven Marmon, junior independent, made an abortive attempt to have the bill reintroduced. When the attempt failed, he circulated the petition to call for an emergency student govern- ment meeting on Wednesday at 7 P.M. The petition was signed by the necessary one-third of the assembly.

In other business, Brown an- nounced a vacancy in government for a junior woman representative. In- terested students should contact Brown at the government office.

Other bills before the assembly were mostly routine matters. Aloca- tions to Pennsyngers, Chess Club, Penn Comment, and various student government activities were approved without extended debate.

'I'm just very, very proud of these boys. When we were down 1-3 just two weeks ago, they didn't give up. We came right back and won these two big ones. To be 3-3 in a league with Army and Navy is very good for a civilian team."

"There was only one game," Murray went on, "That I think we

should have taken that we didn't: Navy. We had what we needed to beat them, but it just didn't work out. All and all, we did as well and better than we could expect.

"These last two games have been in some way a measure of the boys," Murray added, "These kids just wouldn't quit."

'72 gridders win 6th straight with 48-7 rout of Columbia

By JOHN WERTHEIMER

The Columbia Lloncub's roar was completely muffled Friday, as the undefeated Perm freshman football team rolled to a 48-7 victory in P game played in New York.

Perm's total domination of the action is well reflected by the statis- tics. The powerful Quaker running attack gained 360 yards, while quarterbacks Mike Hickok, Phil Procacci, and Tom Duffy hit on 5 of the 11 passes they threw, 3 of them going for touchdowns. Columbia, on the other hand, could gain but 17 yards rushing and its previously potent aerial attack was held to 8 completions in 30 attempts for only 60 yards. The Cubs could get only three first downs (to Penn' s 24).

As the figures might imply, most of the compliments from coach Ken Millen and his staff were directed at the Quaker lines. Offensive guards John Riley and Mark Bray were singled out for their blocking on sweeps, while defensive ends Randy Sims and Vin Sgro were named for their outstanding play in quieting the Cubs. Procacci, fullback Bob Long, and halfback Mike Brumbach, who each rushed for close to 100 yards, also were lauded.

After kicking off and holding Columbia on the first series, Penn lumped to a 7-0 lead following a short

Cub punt. A series of ground thrusts put the ball on the one, setting up a scoring plunge by Procacci. Stan Startzell, who excelled on kickoffs, then booted the first of his six extra points.

Columbia, showing signs of the offense it had been credited for, roared back, on a drive of only four plays, to tie the game, 7-7.

Early in the second period Sims blocked a punt at the Columbia 31. Three plays later, Procacci hit Mike McMahon for 20 yards and a touch- down. Later in the period Procacci clicked on another TD throw, this one to Brumbach for seven yards. Startzell converted twice, and it was Ppnn leading by 21-7 at the half

Just after intermission Dennis vlalone picked off a Cub pass at the Columbia 40. This led to another Penn score, on a four-yard plunge

by Long. As Millen began to sub stitute and Columbia continued tc stand still, there was no further scoring in the period.

Penn made it a rout with twenty- one more points in the last quarter, scoring them with the bench cleared. Defensive end Lou San deflected a Columbia pitchout from the Cub 40 to the 20, where Brumbach recovered. Soon after, McMahon scored his second touchdown, on a three-yard run. The tally mounted to 41-7 on a Duffy-to-Kevin O'Toole pass that covered 15 yards. Malone then closed out the scoring on a 40-yard punt return, as Bruce Berger's block at the 10 let him reach paydirt untouched.

The young Quakers are now 6-0, with wins over Cornell, Lafayette, Princeton, Lehigh, Temple, and Columbia. They will be shooting for a perfect season when they host West Chester Saturday morning.

Mi-East football unit, the only sophomore included in the lineup. Fuddy, who stands third on the Red and Blue eleven for number of tackles this season, was also named as the "Defensive Player of the Week" by the Quaker coaching staff.

Jim McFillen was chosen as the "Offensive Player of the Week" after his fine performance at the halfback slot in Saturday's 13-7 win over Columbia.

By STUART MADDEN

The Quaker lightweights put it all together Saturday against Rutgers, and destroyed the Scarlet Knights 26-7 to finish the '68 season with, a very respectable 3-3 log.

Coach Bob Murray described him- self as "very happy and delighted with these boys," as he talked of the way his team came back in their last two games with two upset victories, the other over Princeton last week.

The Quakers stuck to the running- game as they penetrated the Rutgers ground defense an unprecedented 65 times.' Halfback Pete Evans carried 18 times for 83 yards gained, and wingback Karl Reisner gained 112 yards in 35 attempts.

Penn drew first blood early in the opening period when, after a ' ground oriented drive of 53 yards, quarterback Pat Wolff snuck it in from five yards out. Perry Bacon kicked the conversion of give Penn a 7-0 lead.

Rutgers came right back in their next offensive series. The hosts Irove to the Quaker one, where half- oack Merv Zocchi dove in for the score on fourth down. Barry

"A" team comes in second

Ruggers finish high in tourney Perm's "A" and "B" rugbyteams

came in second and third, re- spectively, out of nine Philadelphia clubs participating in the Whitemarsh Seven-a-Side Tournament Sunday. Each lost only to the tournament champion, Philadelphia Rugby Club's "A" aide.

The "B" team advanced to the semi-finals by routing first Villanova 22-0, then the home Whitemarsh team 18-0. Nearly every Penn player scored, led by Skip Chase's three tries in the first game and Miles Sibell who scored in both. The game with the Philly "A's" was close until the last few minutes when Philadelphia opened the gap to a 13-3 win.

The Penn "A" side opened up with an 18-0 whitewash of First City Troop, which included a picture-per-

fect try covering the entire length of the field in which every Penn player handled the ball at least once. They then built up an 8-0 lead over Phila- delphia "B's", only to have to hold tightly to that advantage when forced to play one man down by an injury to captain-elect Eric Evans. The final score was 8-5.

In the championship game Penn got

and early lead on Tim Lloyd's try and Joe Gantz's conversion. Phila- delphia tied the game 5-5 on the last play of the first half. The second half was scoreless until Gantz scored three on a penalty kick late in the game. Philadelphia once again came back to tie, and then made it 13-8 on a try with two minutes left to wrap up the game and the championship.

Halfback KARL REISNER (49) rushed Saturday over Rutgers.

Streisand's conversion tied it up at 7-7 as the first quarter ended.

The remainder of the game was all Penn. On the next drive Wolff led the team 65 yards to the Rutgers six. With third and goal, Wolff tried the sneak once again, but was hit hard at the one and fumbled into the end zone, where Quaker end Jackie Welsh recovered for the second Penn score. The conversion was good, and Penn led 14-7.

There were only six minutes left in the half, but the Quakers were not finished. With third and seven at the Rutgers 29, Wolff hit halfback Charlie Linn with a play-action pass

for 112 yards in 35 carries in 27-6 romp

for the score. The two-point con- version attempt failed, and the half closed Penn 20, Rutgers 7. Wolff had six completions in 14 attempts for the afternoon.

There was no score in the third period, but the Quakers took to the offense again soon after the start of the final quarter. Reisner and Evans ground out the yardage as Penn once again assaulted Scarlet territory. With a fourth and goal on the Rutgers seven, Wolff hit Welsh in the end zone with the same play-action pattern that burned Quaker opponents all season. It was a fitting end to a

The Penn Hockey Booster Associ- ation, which was formed last year to fan interest in hockey on the campus, will begin a drive for membership today, sponsoring a booth in Houston Hall.

The memberships cost three dollars and entitle the owner to free bus rides to all the home games which are now played in Cherry Hill and discounts on selected Philadel- phia Flyers games all during the season, as well as the usual member- ship card and the hockey booster button that has begun to spring up around the campus.

The booth will be outside the West Lounge of Houston Hall and will be open from 10:30 to 6:30. The club is trying to push for big turnouts at the two important pre-vacation home games against St. Nicks on Wednesday,

December 4, and the Ivy League opener against Yale on December 11.

The Quakers and the Bulldogs built an intense rivalry last year as the result of a wild game in New Haven and a spirited rematch in the Arena.

The first Flyers game is November 24, a Sunday, against the

Los Angeles Kings. Discounts of up a dollar can be obtained by members.

Penn's skaters face some of the best hockey competition in the nation, and deserve the support of the student body especially until they have their own home ice. "The best way is through the boosters," a spokesman said.

Frosh skaters open against Wissahickon

By JEFF ROTH BARD

The Penn freshmen hockey team will take to foreign ice for the initial test conight at 8:30 P.M. against the Wissahickon hockey club. Coached by Rich Broadbelt, the frosh skaters have exhibited great skill and potential in their scant three weeks of practice.

Unfortunately, with many essential personnel involved in fall sports, the team has not settled down into a set lineup. Forward Bob Watkins and defense man Tim Megear have been playing freshmen soccer, defenseman David Battle was a defensive back for the frosh gridders, and forward Paul Morrison ran for the harriers.

Only at goaltender is Broadbelt assured of a consistent performer. John Marks from Toronto, who played for St. Michaels in Canadian Junior "B" hockey, will man the nets for the Quakers. Despite a slight back injury, Marks has turned away many shots with spectacular saves in practice.

Marks' roommate and former classmate at St. Michaels, Sam Guillord, has come to Penn from the best competitive league of any Red and Blue skater. Guillord, who is the only person ever born in Trinidad to play organized hockey, starred last year for the London Nationals in the Junior "A" League. Head coach James Salfi said that Guillord "potentially could be the best player in the Ivy League. Although he has played forward for most of his career, Sam will be forced to play defense for the first three games, due to the lack of players caused by participation in fall sports and injuries. His adaptability is another example of his value to the squad.

Kevin Kelly, who played at LaSalle Academy, will see much action at center. Other defensemen include Mike Casey, who also played for St. Michaels High, and Hugh Samson from Phillips Academy.

Because of their limited preparation, tonight's game with Wissahickon should prove to be a severe test of the freshmen's conditioning. Guillord is expected to play 45 minutes and Marks will have to go the whole way at goalie. Coach Broadbelt has tried to work the team into shape in their four practice sessions a week, but due to the scarcity of players available, they still may lack stamina.

The schedule, which includes a Saturday game with Wissahickon again, and a Sunday tilt in West Orange, New Jersey against the Garden State All Stars, places an even greater burden on the inexperienced frosh. Coach Salfi and Coach Broadbelt will indeed be satisfied if Penn can win at least two of these :hree games. —
