letters Conference For over half a year the ASUO has been hard at work planning and organizing the Northwest National Security Conference which will take place on campus Feb 25-27 At a time when the govern ment is proposing to allocate to the Defense Dept, a record breaking peacetime budget the conference will bring together nationally known people, who are supportive as well as critical of Administration policies, some of whom have not only come and give their opinions but have to answer questions from the audience as well This is a unique opportunity for us To paraphrase a WWI general, national security is too important to be left to the ex perts We re the ones who sup ply the money and the bodies for the policies these people for mulate I feel it is obligatory we show up and listen to the con ference speakers and in turn ask them the cold hard ques tions they so rarely receive I know there are hundreds of thousands of veterans across the country in VA hospitals and Vet Centers across the country who wish that people had asked similar questions of the national security experts twenty years ago We may never have a chance like this again Let’s not blow it David Isenberg director, University Veterans Association Incompetent I can't stand it any longer' I have to speak my peace about Jim Haney! I think he is one of the most incompetent, ir responsible coaches in the league, or in the nation for that matter I am speaking of the incident with Barry Walker. Haney has enough trouble keeping players on the team, to start throwing them off! Barry Walker is a money ball player and had sparked the Ducks more than once this year Most of all he is certainly entitled to voice his opinion. Haney's deci sion not to play Walker in his last game against OSU was a slap in the face If I were Walker I’d slap Haney in the face! Haney, if you can't stand the heat in the kitchen, get out. Joe Moore junior, Accounting Homosexuality The Emerald's review of "Making Love" is infuriating Where does Matt Meyer get off imposing his beliefs on homo sexuality when he should be reviewing whether the movie technically works of not? His insinuation that homosexuality is indeed a disease that we should all fear and that homo sexuals are socially irresponsi ble is ridiculous Get a grip on your latent fears and in the future stick to objec tive reporting We want to know if the acting, writing and direc tion are worthwhile, not your personal bias on the subject matter How much did Jerry Falwell pay you to write this, anyway? Chela Newton Tom Smith David Chartrey seniors, music Regrets The Emerald regrets the mis information conveyed in Monday's editorial concerning the IFC and intramural funding The IFC is required to put cer tain funding matters before the students The Emerald further regrets any bad light it may have cast on the IFC Clues It is too bad that your reviewer, Marian Green, didn't understand Tennessee Wil liams’ "The Glass Menagerie," for the ORT's production is the best (of three) I’ve seen The trouble is, one has to un derstand the play before one can judge the characteriza tions Williams gives plenty of $18,000 THIS YEAR? After graduation, and if you qualify the U S. Air Force, we will pay you over $18,000 the first year and over $30,000 after the fourth year We need NAVIGATORS to use our highly sophis ticated electronic equipment to guide our aircraft to their destinations, all over the world. This is an executive flying position unequaled in the flying world You may qualify for this exciting opportunity if you're a U S citizen in good health, up to 27 years old and a college senior or graduate For more information or a no obligation appoint ment contact: Tom Tucker at 687-6786 A great way of life clues, the biggest right at the beginning: the play's subject is memory And as memory sof tens the edges and intensities of all things remembered, so the dream-like atmosphere of ORT's production seems just right. So does Jacquie McClure's Amanda. The Wing field family is imprisoned in a past, Amanda's remembered past Green wants Amanda "more hard-bitten." Well, to a southern lady of Amanda’s quality, it is no virtue to be hard-bitten Perhaps Green should stick to the soaps. Or read Faulkner. Thomas A.
