Surgeon General C. Everett
koop and Secretary of Educa
tion William Bennett have
warned. "AIDS education that
accepts. . . sexual activity as in
evitable and focuses only on
'safe sex’ will be at lies! ineffec
tual. and worst, itself a cause of
serious harm.
Young people should be
taught that the best precaution
is abstinence until it is possible
to establish a mutually faithful
monogamous relationship."
(Education Week, Feb. 11,
1987)
Dr. koop has stated. “Morali
ty and science go hand in
hand lie's right.
The idea that one can have
sex recreationally and not
establish a lasting marriage
commitment is very, very
dangerous. The sexual revolu
tion is the reason many serious
diseases am thriving in our
nation.
In order for venereal diseases
to flourish, they require new
hosts furnished through
promiscuity.
If people practiced complete
sexual monogamy, V.D. would
become extinct as soon as those
already infected passed on.

Saving forests
In the far corner of Southwest
Oregon lies one of the largest
and most diverse remaining old
growth forests in the state the
North kalmiopsis.
This roadless area of approx
imately 200.(HK) acres is located
between the existing Wild
Rogue and kalmiopsis
wilderness areas. The North
r
kalmiopsis is a botanical
paradise, containing many rare
and endangered plant species.
It is also the home of abun
dant wildlife and threatened
species such as the spotted owl
Numerous rivers and streams
lace the area and provide a
challenging white water ex
perience. such as the Illinois
River The area is truly deserv
ing of some form of permanent
protection.
Unfortunately, the Forest Ser
vice has plans to extensively
road and log the North
Kalmiopsis over the next few
years. Only concerned citizen
response can keep this from
happening.
In an effort to protect this
area, environmental groups and
citizens from around the state
have proposed the Siskiyou Na
tional Park. This proposal
would protect the existing
wilderness areas, and also
would protect the North
Kalmiopsis
But the Forest Service needs
to hear from you. Write to
Forest Supervisor Ron McCor
mick. Siskiyou National Forest.
PO Box 440. ('.rants Pass. OR.
97520 Ask him to protect the
North Kalmiopsis from reading
and logging, and to study the
park proposal in the forest plan
ning process.

attack of his straw man version
of what the "new right” (his
words) wanted and how they
felt.
It's revealing that his quoted
sources of enlightenment were:
1) A 1960s hippie agitator,
and
2) a 1960s science-fiction
writer (perhaps we'd call that
the "old left").
At least he didn't stoop to the
old 'F' word as another of these
personal attack letters
did. . .and wow, we all know
just what a persuasive intellec
tual air-tight argument that is!
These personal attack and
name-calling methods
employed by so many Universi
ty letter writers against the
"new right" are typical. Is this
because these writers’ counter
ideas just don't bear up under
logical argument?
Instead of simply attacking
people, why don’t you try
presenting some realistic, wor
thy alternative thoughts and
solutions.
Finally, here's a thought for
you "left" to chew on — it ap
plies to much of the liberal ad
vocacy agenda including
homosexuality, abortion-on
demand. quota hiring, "value
free" sex, and generational
welfare: A society will not long
thrive that is socialistically
structured such as to demand its
responsible citizens finance the
consequences of its irresponsi
ble citizens.

Vocabulary
In response to the letter on
terminology |OI)K. May 18), the
feminine counterpart of the
male womanizer is slut. A
manizer, however, is a woman
pretending she is a man.
Putting the appropriate titles
with these words can help one
re me m Ian how they are used.
Mr. Womanizer are two words
that rhyme Whereas Mrs. Slut
or Miss Slut are pairs of words
whose transition is marked by
an aspirated “a" sound. Hut
Ms. Manizer is characterized by
the harsh “z" in both words.
