• • • A Young Soldier (< nil limn'd from pane N) Nam, brawn* we art* fighting to preserve freedom and to end all wars. What are you doing about it? Also in the article I read, students were going to take up a collection to send our enemies. Well, go and ask our parents and the parents of our friends who have lost their lives trying to end the war, to contribute Then wail until we Ret |I0rne if We do, and ask us, if you can find the nerve What you really need is a good spanking, and taken out from behind “mother’s skirt," and have your eyes opened to what the Communists are trying to do to the world, and then maybe you will know “what we are doing in Viet Nam.” I. < pl. Terrance O. Melton t nited States Marine Corps _ * PO, San Francisco, C alif. Letters to the Editor (Contiiturd frmn (’iif/f JO) Johnson'* audience were inter ested enough in open discus sion on Viet N'am to attend this late session The forum was in teresting and significant It was a University experience, a rare one and a badly missed one But no campus press coverage! The Kmerald staff is either (inex cusably careless or is guilty of news management to fit its own opinions Natalie Fisher SUIT, Molecular Biology Technical problems precluded the Inclusion of stories on the question* which followed Mr. Johnson's speech and the forum. Space limitation forced the ex clusion of the question and an swer period from the story on the speech and final ropy dead lines made it impossible to get the forum story in Wednesday’s line-raid. The story appear* on pagr one in thl* issue—The Kditor • • • Panhellcnic Replies Kmerald Kditor: Once a year the Kmcrald dec-ms a* it* duty to make a frontal attack on the Greeks, and this year is no exception. I am not writing this letter in vengeance, but more with the hope of enlightening some mis informed readers. My first reference is to the editorial of Oct 11, 19t*5 entitled "Housing Causes Pledge Rise.” The primary disappointment in this article was the misusage of a statement which I made to an Kmerald reporter during an in ten lew about three weeks ago Ordinarily, I do not mind be ing interviewed, quoted or even referred to, and ! suppose ! even take the risk of being mis interpreted. However, I was more than misinterpreted; my statement was taken complete ly out of its original context and was Used to Mr. Beggs' ndvan (age in reaching the illogical conclusion that the cause for the pledge rise was due to the housing shortage. Granted, I acknowledge t h e fact that the housing shortage may have encouraged an upper class girl to pledge a house dur ing rush However, at the time she signed up for rush (during this summer) had she been con corned about finding housing, she could have applied for a dorm reservation or found an apartment at the same time. Also, at this same time, the overwhelming increase of the University population was un foreseen even by officials. So, the question al>out housing was not really evident when the up Perclaas girl decided to sign up for rush and is not a logical rea son that upperclass girls decid ed to apply for rush. However, during rush, it was mentioned that there was a problem of housing and upper class women were encouraged to pledge a house at this time. Hut, upperclass women compris ed only 14 per cent of all the rushees going through rush this fall. In your reasoning you forgot to take into account that freshmen women are assured of a dorm space their first year, and therefore, did not feel any pressure from the housing as pect. So this could not have ef fected their decision to pledge a house. Admittedly, there was a t'ise in the number of upper class women who pledged, but they comprised a very small percentage of all who went through rush. Our statistics show that there are two more basic and more sig nificant reasons for the increase of pledges this year which I em phatically pointed out in my in terview: < I) simply that there was a greater number of wom en going through rush and there fore a greater number who pledged; and (2) that there will be no spring rush this academ ic year and girls were very strongly urged to pledge now. Besides, Mr. Beggs, what in dividual who abhors a group liv ing situation, who isn't willing to accept responsibility or to living up to rertain standards, is so bold as to sign up for rush merely to have a roof over his head? Furthermore, in general ref erence to the Emerald of Fri day, Oct. 15, 1965. and more spe cifically the editorial, permit me to amend your erroneous criti cism of the sorority judicial system. In the first place, the Panhcl lenic Judiciary Board did its authoritative duty last spring when a house violated the Stu dent Conduct Code and was penalized accordingly. Admit tedly, there was a “slip up” in the routine handling of such cases which resulted in the par tial misunderstanding and par t.o! oversight in reporting our judiciary actions to the Conduct Committee. However, there was no inten tional disobedience involved, nor was there any attempt to apply sanctions behind the back Of the Conduct Committee. When we were informed of the oversight, the necessary steps were taken to make right our wrong The Judiciary Board chairman, Judy Grankey, re ported to the Conduct Commit tee who approved the action that had been taken last spring. To judge the sorority judicial system as uncooperative, and unwilling to live up to the Code on the basis of one circum stance is quite an undeserved criticism. The matter remains that there was enror; however, steps have been taken to avoid mistakes in the future, and we have every intention of cooperating with the Student Conduct Commit tee.
