SDS Stresses Need For Unitv The University chapter of Students for a Democratic So ciety (SDS) talked about get ting together and involving more people in their first or ganizational meeting Monday night. In a town hall forum with various members speaking, the number one issue was unity. Bill Watson, a national mem ber of SDS said, “Last spring SDS was divided into three fac tions. There were those who wanted organization, those who wanted no organization at all, and those who wanted the mid dle ground. And, each faction said they would have it their way or SDS would go down the drain. “And what happened is that SDS went down the drain,” he said. One thing mentioned by sev eral people speaking was the need to eliminate power moves. It was felt that these power moves as well as the lack of unity kept SDS from being ef fective on campus last year. Among the goals the SDS is considering for this year are the campaigns of mayor of Eugene, city counsel, support for draft resistance, discrediting ROTC, and the traditional issues of academic reform, peace, and civil rights. Charles Armsbury, one of the mayoral candidates, spoke to the gathering. He stressed “talking straight about the issues” and confronting the citizens of Eu gene with radical ideas. He encouraged raicals to come to the public meetings which all the candidates are holding, and “talk up” radical ideas.

I • w Write-in candidate for City Council from ward two, Dave Gwyther, spoke on interacting with local government, and forc ing a strong radical union in the Eugene community. Gwyther will be refusing in duction in Portland along with two other students, Ron Funky and Dave Schoenfeld. He en couraged all his friends and “anyone who thinks that the draft is unwise and unhealthy to come with me and say that you won’t go either.” ROTC, which has recently had headquarters burned down at Stanford, University of Wash ington and University of Cali fornia at Berkeley, received con siderable attention. Suggestions as to how to deal with it ranged from blowing up the building to throwing 1,000 whipped cream pies in the faces of ROTC stu dents while they drill. The burning idea was discre dited by Don Fitz, who pointed out that “sympathetic graduate students” are housed in offices adjacent to the ROTC building. The meeting began with a “flag salute” in which lights were dimmed and red and black flags, symbols of communism and anarchy respectively, were set afire. Paintings by Goya On EMU Display Goya’s “Quinta del Sordo,” an exhibition of 40 color re productions of paintings execut ed by the Spanish artist dur ing his later years, will be on display through Oct. 11 in the EMU Art Gallery.
