  • THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN Thursday February 25, 1971 5 The Cat's Paw By THE INIMITABLE FAW I 3 Yes, friends, once again it's time to commit blasphemy and unnatural acts upon the old bastion of Star-Spangled apple pie and the Land of the Pilgrim's Pride. Some day if you read enough of this stuff, open your eyes, and look around, you might know why deranged little people like myself keep writing said "stuff." Regardless of what you think you believe, or what you are led to believe, or what you are made to believe, there are frightening parallels between this nation today and now, and - ready for the shocker? Nazi Germany yesterday and then. You dnn't have to be a oolitical science whiz to see it either. And until somebody starts to notice and give a damn and do something about it, you'll be seeing a lot more of this "stuff." Besides, I'm mad. So you're getting mad, too, eh? Well then, Ace, suppose then you try and guess which is which - the U. S„ or the Fuher's Fatherland: ...a secret military police Is established which photographs crowds and keeps strange- looking or unusual acting characters on file - for their own use. ...the people, by laws interpreted and imposed by the leaders, are all expected to join the military, act alike, become highly patriotic and aid In the national cause - right or wrong. ...anyone deviating from the normal ideal robot way of thinking is shunned and looked down upon as an enemy of the state. ...a certain class or group of people is singled out by the populace as being the cause of all the nation's ills and are considered beneath the master race - and are treated as non-human. If you answered Germany to all, you were half right - because these are only a few of the parallels between U.S. and them. Now really, folks - considering that most of you are rational beings - what do you think about a place where even morals are dictated? Who is trying to tell you not to look at filthy pictures, not to go to filthy movies, not to do this or that? Who is it that lets killers go free and lets a kid who smokes dope (damaging (?) no one but himself) face up to 20 years in jail. Have you ever been to jail? It's like James S. Kunen said, jails are full of people who want to makepeace - but where are the ones who make war? Want to do something helpful for America? Not a chance. Waste your life, have some fiat-ass sergeant tell you what to do, and be a robot for a few leaders who interpret the laws their own narrow way. Enlist todayl Be a manl Folks, if someone would just stick to the things Tom Jefferson and company laid down nearly 200 years ago, maybe we wouldn't need to have little "anarchists" writing so many futile words, such as these will more than likely be called by some English teacher who has a color picture of Nixon & Agnew and Mickey Mouse over his mantel. Maybe I cant say It all, but look around, my friends. Are you sure we're not beyond civilization? It's also like Mr. Jefferson said, something to the effect that if the leaders start misinterpreting their duties and misusing their powers - then it's time for the people to "regain the road" and give the country all the credit it is due. NEXT WEEK: Pigs off campus. Friendly fan Besides having a basketball team ranked number one in the NAIA District 6, Western Carolina is known throughout the area as one of the most courteous, and hospitable of schools, as the friendly fan above proves by waving to the visitors. It takes a big man to be courteous to the visitors. Anyone can sink to the depths of vulgarity. CULLOWHEE NORMAL AND INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL CERTIFICATE OF MERIT Presented Jo Sfie Western Carolinian Boxes whereas the said boxes, conceived by the WESTERN CAROLINIAN and constructed by the maintenance department, supply office space for 37 industrious spiders complete with webs (no newspapers, however); whereas the said boxes, should they contain papers, would be impossible to obtain single papers out of in one piece and are stratigically located where they cannot be found; whereas the said boxes could be easily converted into bird feeders and hung from the U.S.S. Bird's Mast for better use, we hereby award the Certificate of Merit on this, the twenty-fifth day of February, in the year of Our Lord, nineteen-hundred and seventy- one. Letters to the Editor Answer to answer Dear Editor: In response to the letter of Tony Thompson, submitted in the February 18, 1971 edition of the WESTERN CAROLINIAN, I would like to make a few comments. My purpose Is not to countenance James Webb's or Tony Thompson's "statements concerning a certain professor's lectures" since I was not in attendance in the class in question, but my comments concern Mr. Thompson's criticism of other items in Mr. Webb's letter. First, there Is Mr. Thompson's following statement: "Mr. Webb offers the so-called 'Jesus Movement' as evidence of support for his ideas...but I would ask Mr. Webb to look back upon all the movements which have preceded this one. Each movement has appeared widespread and strong at first but most disappear when the novelty is gone. Given time all fads will fade." Here Mr. Thompson criticizes an area he obviously knows little about. The "Jesus Movement," better known as Christianity, is referred to by Mr. Thompson as a fad and "Given time, all fads will fade." This fad (?) has been a major force affecting the lives of people on this earth for nearly 2,000 years. The followers of this fad (7) today number over 950 million people, most of them like Mr. Webb are sincere in their Christian convictions. Historical time Itself is divided according to before or after the birth of Christ. That was quite an honor for a leader of a fad (?). In disagreement with Mr. Thompson, I can not believe that the "Jesus Movement", Le„ Christianity, is the fad or "novelty" he believes it to be. My second disagreement is with Mr. Thompson's referral to Mr. Webb as having "one narrow point of view." Mr. Webb, in his letter presented his views and experiences on moral Issues. He did not try to Impose his beliefs on anyone: notice his continual use of the pronoun "I", He just gave his opinion on the issue and that can hardly be classified as narrow- minded. One more comment concerning Mr. Webb's statement about solving his problems and getting "high off Jesus Christ," Have you ever noticed that sincere Christian chruch members are truly happy people without legalized or 11- legalized drugs, etc.? They have reason to be, and so "don't knock It 'til you try it." Sincerely, Brian Bennett Graduate Student Groovy ads Dear Editor, I have been scanning your paper for the last few months. I really have noticed a change for the better In much of the advertisements, mostly due to the quality of the graphic work done in this area. Some of it is really groovy. You should try more to make it even nicer (strange edges and things). Keep up the good work.~Thanks.
