Political Flyers Gone Too Far Dear Editor, This time they have gone too far. I'm referring to the creators of those ridiculous political livers. The Granola Journal and The Commode Bottom The factitious cowards who distribute these flyers seem unable to utilize the best and most effective medium for speaking one's mind that's available to the students of this university— The Western Carolinian. Instead, they pollute the billboards of our school with ultra-right wing gibberish that would make any real conservative ill. The Granola Journal, a "conservative credo," is a vile mixture of yellow journalism with a touch of libel and slander thrown in (at least it is legible). The Commode Bottom, however, is clearly the work of a sick or very confused mind. The authors have created incomprehensible, illegible documents that are more confusing than they are provocative. I need not point out the obvious inconsistencies in these twodocuments—they speak for themselves. But the very appearance of these flyers seems to be a symptom of one of the biggest problems in our country today. That problem is the inability of the Right and Left to come to terms with each other. Liberal and Conservative, Black and White, Democrat and Republican, we all need to rediscover the seemingly lost art of compromise. Compromise is virtually the only way we Americans can become a truly great society. The Political factionalism that seems so rampant (especially at election time) is a terrible strain on our government. The inevitable results of such rigid dogmas are civil strife, a resurgence of racism and worse. 1 do not have any answers for today's problems, but I have a lot of questions. I would like to know what the authors of the Granola Journal and the Commode Bottom hoped to accomplish? It seems to me that thev would have gotten a more positive response from the students of the university had they taken the time to make some intelligent, provocative accusations in a medium that's more accessible to the whole student body. Seriously guys, your kindergarten cartoons may seem cute to some people, but they will never be seen as "legitimate"in the eyes of this student. Your misguided attempts at political propaganda only serve to give you, conservatives, and ultimately the University a bad name. Maybe you'll find the courage to expose yourselves in your next issues. Sincerely, Kenneth A. Lauber Express Views Dear Editor, I would like to comment on what I see as a very unsubtle way of punishing you and your staff for speaking up about issues which you feel are important. I am referring specifically to how the SGA has slashed you budget, making it impossible to pay your staff. Though I don't always agree with your view Ifeel that if there are those who do not agree with your views they heed to write and express their own views rather than hurt the operation of the entire newspaper and the service that the newspaper provides to the university community. Nick Smith |> Know Your History By Chance Or Plan Western Carolina University: How did it begin? By Chance Or Plan is a new publication which tells about the events in the I880's leading up to the founding of this school. This book contains many old photos and illustrations, including an 1892 Jackson County map. a picture of the first mayor of Sylva, a Cullowhee scene in the "horse and buggy" days, and the first graduating class of Cullowhee School. 11 evvis .1.

Cars are also harder and heavier and they move faster. I his means that unless vou are C lark Kent and you and the car try to occupy the same space at the same time, you will come out with the nastv end of the stick (if you come out of it at all). Considering the way most peoples (especially female) cross the street around here, this is not just news-it's a revelation! You might be daddy's little precious in jeans you have to parachute drop into to get on, but if you step in front of a one-track minded maniac like me, whose early morning directional program is flashing "get to class get to class -and nothing else-you'll be worm tood and a memory PDQ. Your boy friend will find himself another little snuggle bunny and your girlfriends will all say vou deserved it anyway. I his goes for vou masculine dare devils also, II you think you're one heil ol a hot shot guard or tackle macho, try throwing a block on a one ton Detroit I ion moving at 30 m.p.h. It's just a matter ol mind over question: the car doesn't mind so that should Enswei vour question. I don't brake for pedestrians; I speed up I he devil makes me do it So it vou see a dark blue Rabbit, with a little gold framed picture of Jesus on the dash, rolling down the load, don't step in front of it unless you have a death wish -because I'll be happv to grant it And I won't even stop. I'll just claim that I had a flashback: I'll sweai on a Mac truck lull ot Bibles that my memory of the last 10 years went blank, that I thought the \ W was an armored personel carrier and that vou were a Viet Cong. Remember Dodge dodgers cross the street defensively please. Oye Vey! Clark Kent you're not. Sincerely, Jay DeVane Sawyer ism Dear Editor, In this country, the L.S. Mint make money. Everyone else has to earn it. A number of fine but poor organizations have earned the right to further funding because of their proven ability to honor themselves and this school. I do not support, as a communist would, cutting the budgets of the rich (i.e. the Carolinian) because they are rich, but because they have not earned the money they receive. M.J. Schutz can say that Mr. Hardin does not get rich from the editorship, and that his salary is well below the poverty level. Schutz is right. But the words rich and poor are, like everything in our world, relative. Larry does not live a luxurious life, but compared to the rest of us, he is an Arab sheik. So. you are bewildered by the criticism. Have you considered that perhaps students are tired of careless grammatical and typographical errors, non-stop editorializing on the front page, and being insulted every week by a tiny monkey informing us that "nuclear war is bad for you"(golly jeepers!)? Or perhaps folks simply do not like an editor whose first concern with his stall is their "need to pay the rent", and not journalistic excellence. Self-pity is not a ticket to success in the 80s. Hardin will just have to add that to this other two excuses. Vietnam and Reagan. Sincerely, David Sawyer LMP Thanks Dear Editor, Last Minute Productions programming council would like to thank the following people for their services involved with the .38 Special concert. Without their help, the success of the concert could not have been possible! Special thanks to the U.C. staff; Traffic and Security; Reid Gym faculty and staff; WWCU; Jack Haney and staff; Western Carolinian; SECT Team; Engineers' Office; Reid Housekeeping; all volunteers; IMP stage crew; and last but not least, the LMP Producers! Thanks again for all your help! Sincerely, Jeanne Handle SGA Rebuttal Dear Editor, Even though the budget will have been decided upon Western Carolinian/N^treniber^S^ 2 by the time my editorial has been published-I feel that on behalf of the Student Government I must respond to your historic comments. I will attempt to do two things: A) Respond to your comments B) Express some other concerns visa vis,the paper. Larry, in case you may not have noticed, the university has a substantially lower budget. This has specially affected Student Government because our money is directly related to student enrollment. I should also preface anything 1 might write by mentioning that I really did not expect you to understand the complexities of this budget process; however, a couple of questions directed to me before-hand would have prevented vour vociferate expression of naivete. I told vour associate editor several days before the last edition came out that the payroll figure w typographical error, but you persisted with your tirade. Vour mention of S.G.A s payroll as 10,000 dollars per year is correct. That is less than the salary that you and your Business Manager make in a year's time' We at S G V have even cut our staff this year. The Carolinian is the only student organization that pays by the hour wages; conversely, .lav Kilgo (General Manager at WWCU) and Blake Brown. S.G.A. President make around 25 cents to 50 cents an hour for then sen ices. Vou must realize as the biggest spender ol student activity fees that you have an obligation to "give the facts" in this situation. The point is then attempted to show how much those guvs" in S.G.A. spend on service contracts. The Carolinian's service contracts far exceed any other student organizations' on the campus. You are s.mply wrong when vou infer that your orgamz.at.on get no travel monies' The Carolinian receives as much travel allowances as any other club or organ.zat.on at thts university. , . . . ... Your animadversion via our (the copier is accessible to all student clubs) copier is non sequ.tor. The Carolinian is the only organization on campus to havens own copier We share our copier with all student organizations and must subsidize it to maintain it. You ask for new S.G.A. members...1 beg to differ! The Carolinian has gone too far and gotten too far out of touch with the av cage student at our university. 1 feel it is because of intrinsic staff reasons. You have become so involved in promoting your liberal lett shibboleths that you have simply lost any degree of, as you l.ke to call tt, relevancy. ,. 1 teel that The Carolinian has some excellent staff people This is especially the case in your counterpart, Jim Stewart Mr. Editor, please consider the advice of one more brilliant than either of us: "Let him that would move the world, first move himself" Socrates.
