The Student-Faculty Commit tee to End the War in Vietnam has scheduled the event one day before the annual military ball put on by the campus ROTC. "We see it as a parody of the military ball and hope it will get people thinking about the sig nificance of what's in back of the military philosophy," said Mike Papadopoulos, a math pro fessor and a member of the anti war committee. "The dance and program will he within the ground rules of the university,” he said, “but some people question why we should hove this kind of a ball while the hoys are dying in Vietnam.” Controversy over the anti military ball has been going on in the OSU student newspaper, the Barometer. •leanne Ewalt, the managing editor, said in a letter to the editor that it seems strange that the antiwar committee would choose he Memorial Union for the event. ‘ They should either name the dance something else or have it in another building," she wrote. Carry Austin, the editor, said the student-faculty committee “has every right to use the Me morial Union facilities for this event.” The MU has scheduled an other dance for Friday night— this one in Gill Coliseum The feeling is that students should Improvements Added To Survey Bulletin Wayne Huberd, president of Student Projects Incorporated (SPI), announced seven “im provements" to be incorporated in this year's Course Survey Bulletin.

Council Debates Withdrawal Time Ideas for changing in the University's class withdrawal policy were debated in the Stu dent-Faculty Council Monday. Although no concrete action was taken proposing changes in University's system of late with drawal from classes, the com mittee decided that a change was necessary and that research work on the problem should be done. G. H. Wannier, professor of physics, suggested that the pres ent three week withdrawal pe riod was not long enough and that the time limit for dropping classes should be set at six weeks. He said that this would give the student time enough to discover if he was “over his head or not.” A resolution was submitted to the committee by Irma Tromm litz that the decision whether to drop a class or not should be a student responsibility. This resolution also stated that a student should be able to with draw from a class until finals week. However, the committee took no action on the resolu tion. The committee will meet again in three weeks to make a recommendation on the issue to send to the faculty. DUCKS!

In his prepared statement, I’ackwood decried a lack of con fidence in the American people because "they have been told too often that their problems are too big to be solved by anyone but the federal govern ment.” Political speculators expect Packwood to win the Republi can nomination and face either Wayne Morse or Robert Dun can in the general election. According to Associated Press reports, Packwood told a news conference that it made no difference whether he opposed Morse or Duncan. He said if he opposed Morse he would have less money avail able, but “I can put together people. We’ll make up for lack of money in zealous volunteers." He predicted that he would have 30,000 volunteers cam paigning around the state. Packwood said that he had found less concern in Oregon over the Vietnam war than on such issues as crime in the streets, inflation and air and water pollution. On Vietnam, he said that he believed we were ri#it in get ting into the war but that we should make clear that we will at some time get out so that the South Vietnamese will take over the war.
