  • Thursday, April 4,1968 THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN Page 3 The Cat's Paw Surprisingly enough, the campus election has come and gone and nobody cares except 1400 or so hardy souls, Congratulations to them; most of them are running for the Student Senate and needed at least one side to back them. Speaking of sides backing political candidates, take a look at that list of fraternities and sororities running for the Senate. Too bad die individuals don't meet up to standards; I counted five of them widi some government experience, and a few more Unit have at least been around a little while. The fact is, people should vote, because students do happen to be getting more power around here. Nowall weneedisStokely Carmichael. But we'll use Howard K.Smith as a start for politically-oriented speakers coming to campus. If you didn't happen to go see him, you missed an excel- By The laimiUM* PA* lent chance (and maybe your last) to be counted among the intelligent people on campus. Now I'm not saying that he has the best political views around, but at least he offered experienced, authoritative opinions on current national politics and the Vietnam war, Combine his brains with a fine speaking voice and a lot of wit, and you have some high-minded answers to questions we all like to bat around, f The function was even well- attended by die student body, more so than any speakers we've had in quite a while, May be because it was the first good speaker we've had In Quite a while, Methlnki die [RC did itself proud. THE PAW'S POETRY One gixid deed deserves anodier When you're working for die right; (.n and vote for your frat brother Show him dial you see die light; All opponents you can smother If you use the proper spite, There's lots of politics a' mixin' Even WCU's Richard Nixon Handsome, wordy, and quite blond Throws in those of whom lie's fond. Opinion Poll Shows Lack Of Rebellion Maybe it's a shame and crime But, bless him, he loses every time. FOOD FOR THOUGHT Now we realize the crime problem's bad, but do we have to exhibit the riot control squad in Dodson Cafeteria? Kinda gets you jittery, Speaking of crime, that little search pulled off by the Jack son County Sheriff's Depart ment proved one tiling - how ineffective Uiat one agency is. by and check the art exhibit in Hinds, You won't understand it, but it's there. A word of wisdom to one sorority: we realize orange posters don't match too well with your sorority colors. So why tear them down'.' Looked real good, girls. Anybody get his feelings hurt because die WCU talkers lost to Harvard? The Forensic Society hereby gets recognized for realistic achievement. As always, end on a happy note about our Cats. One loss to Newberry is the only blemish in baseball, so go widi Coach Blackburn and company all the way to the playoffs. Back tile Cats! The Broken Window By Freeman D. Jones , , Cops! Millions and millions of policemen. Enough police to start a war of a police state or a panic. Rumors tend to be better than the truth and some will believe them instead of the truth. Pity people won't just start friendly rumors. But none of that sort of thing will ever happen here because .Western Carolina University is located between the Blue Ridge and Great Smoky Mountains seven miles South of Sylva and fifty-two miles west of Asheville. Its location in the lower end of Cullowhee Valley in the Tuckasegee Basin makes it an ideal place for study and recreation. This together with an enlightened faculty in tune with the needs of today and a curriculum geared to the mass production of Bachelor degrees makes WCU a mecca for intellectual growth and stimulation. This also makes WCU a far cry from the Big City Colleges with their vice and corruption. All applicants for admission are carefully screened for spiritual acceptability in order to eliminate even the possibility of an unpleasant or undesirable person being allowed into the student body, There will be a sale starting this week at the Community Emporium on high button shoes. With hemlines rising above the ankles, ladies, high button shoes are the answer to being in style while retaining your modesty. An item of interest for the man in the family is the Curtis and Goodsmythe buggy whip. If' your buggy won't start on these cold mornings add a Curtis and Goodsmythe buggy whip and see the improved performance before your very eyes. An innocent looking little gis- mo about the size of a half dollar may turn up in your room at anytime or may even be there now. It will be black and plastic and it may or may not have a series of holes piercing it on one or both sides depending of course on the model. You will find it anywhere at any time -behindthe mirror, taped in the light fixture or underneath the desk or wash basin. It will be cold and shiny. It will have no external markings or lettering or any type and will appear to be solid rather than openable having no seam or latch. Even after you discover it in your room you will not notice it for awhile until one day your brain will say that you had better give some attention to „ . .the round, black plastic. So—so you pick it up and hold it in your hand and turn it over and over and look at it intensely and associate it with plastic half dollars, but It will do you no good to destroy it, there is no way; you see the essence of your culture, every move you make every breath you breathe every vibration of every cell in your body is picked up by the plastic guts of the plastic disc and whether you know or not or care or believe it or admit it to yourself alone in the night Big brother is watching you. Students at the enormous University of California complain about the impersonality of the place, feeling that they exist only as numbers on IBM cards. One student, however, seems at peace with the system. He arrived for a phys-ed judo class wearing a sweatshirt on which he had printed: Do not bend, fold or mutilate. New York—A new survey of American college student opinion on major issues shows them to be far less in revellion and much closer to adult views than is commonly believed. The poll was conducted by Newsweek magazine and represents a cross-section of 8,700 students from 150 colleges. Among its highlights: —On Vietnam only 17 per cent advocate a unilateral halt in bombing and withdrawal of lorces, while 34 percent would escalate die war effort lo seek a military victory. -On die one person Uiey respect most, a parent or rel • alive is cited by 19 percent, Faf down die line are celebrity choices such as die late John F. Kenned} "idi 3.4 percent. l'wo per cent of die students cited "myself", more than was accorded any other individual Other than ['resident Kennedy. —On politics, no Presidential hopeful received a significant pluarlity. Highest is New York Sen Robert 1\ Kennedy with 15 per cent backing for the Presidency. President Johnson and Richard Nixon each re ■ ceived 11 per cent, Nelson Rockefeller 10, George Etomnej ;>, and Ronald Reagan 8, The Newsweek poll was conducted by reply-card questionnaire last fall as a part of the magazine's College News Letter. The 8,700 respondents voted by January 1, In addition to the 34 per cent who would escalate in Vietnam and the 17 per cent who would withdraw unconcitionally, another 8 per cent would call a cease fire and seek negotiation. (But 6 of this 8 per cent would then escalate if the call for negotiations were refused.) Six per cent would continue present policy, five would appeal to the Untted Nations or odier outside groups, five would recognize the Viet long, and two would simply negotiate now. The I msining 17 per cent had no opinion or suggested individual plans ux> diverse to tally. On Uie draft, Uie Newsweek survey showed that 44 per cent of die students disapprove of someone who rejects his mili tary obligation, while 37percent accept his position if he is "sincere", Sixteen per cent refused to pass judgement say • ing it is a personal decision, and the remaining 3 per cent passed over die question. deadliest ■ ■ animal k V forest.
