  • 6 Thursday, October 28, 1971 THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN On alumni support and the 'Voice of the Students9 QUESTION A: WHEN YOU BECOME AN ALUMNUS OF WESTERN CAROLINA DO YOU THINK YOU WILL SUPPORT THE UNIVERSITY FINANCIALLY? QUESTION B: THE MASTHEAD OF THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN SAYS THAT THE PAPER IS THE "VOICE OF THE STUDENTS." DO YOU THINK THIS IS TRUE IN YOUR CASE? Rill (arponler Donna McKinnrv A 22 YR. OLD SENIOR FROM HENDERSONVILLE, BUSINESS MANAGEMENT A. It's hard to say now,, I will if it's available. B. I think the CAROLINIAN stands for the students. I'll stand behind it. A 22YR, OLD SENIOR VLaJ- OR'NG IN ART A. No. I plan on letting them support me. l"m planning on coming back here for a job. B. Sometimes I don't think so, I 'd like to see more of the Cat's Paw, I love the cartoons. A 21 YR. OLD JUNIOR MAJORING IN SPANISH A. Later on. Maybe. B0 No I don't, I don't think it represents the students opinions. It represents the staff's. Ellen Kite A 22 YR. OLD SENIOR MAJ- ROING IN BUSINESS ADMIN- IS rR A TION A. I never thought about it. B. I think that's true. I like the Editorials and Letters to tha Editor best, Wilson Soon Jr. 22YRS. OLD A. No. I donkt think it should be left up to the students to support it B. Yes I do. It's terrific. A fantastic paper. Pal Wenglenski A 22 YR. OLD SE VIOR MAJORING IN PSYCHOLOGY A. No. I don't feel I've benefited or learned a lot at this university. 1 don't want to use my money to support it B. No. It's the voice of the staff. They think they're the voice of the students but most times they are wrong. The problem here is that most students are too apathetic to care. Abortion horrors lead to manslaughter back, blind from reach By PATSY TRUXAW CPS - Shirley Wheeler has been convicted of manslaughter for having an abortion, Shirley Wheeler lives in Florida, and in Florida abortion is the sordid, cloak and dagger, macabre event women have heard stories about since way The phone call, the folding, being switched car to car, until you some unreliable man's dirty, filthy table. Shirley went through all that, but was unlucky. Nothing happened. Except that a little later she began hemmoraging and had to go to her own doctor. Her doctor completed the process, Some-how a health examiner found out about it. The fetus was found with the catheter still in it, and he had her arrested. Shirley spent several days in jail, and was shown pictures of the fetus. "Here is your baby. Look at it, This is your baby. How can you deny having had an abortion?" In Florida women who have abortions, and are found, are tried under the manslaughter statute. Finally Shirley had a two day trial and was found guilty by a jury of three men and three women. Shirley Wheeler has not yet been sentenced, but she faces up to 20 years for her man- slaughter conviction. There have been no previous abortion court cases in Florida. Nor have there been massive moves in the legislature, or much discussion at all. As a result, Shirley Wheeler went through the experience virtually alone. Just as she was about to go to trial, Nancy Starns, a feminist lawyer in New York, heard of her case. Because there are not experienced women lawyers in Florida, and because the women lawyers in New York could not move fast enough once they heard about Shirley, nothing could be done to stop her conviction. The Women's National Abortion Action Coalition is working with Nancy Stearns now to get support for Shirley Wheeler. Petitions have been drafted and sent to the governor and the judge. Shirley Wheeler's case is not unique. Countless women have their own stories of mutilation, degradation and forced shame. Women lucky enough to live in more "liberal" areas, such as parts of California, New York, and Washington, D.c, have their own stories: of being ripped off—by doctors, referral agencies, and hospitals. For these reasons, over 1,000 women from 29 states, repres= enting 253 organizations gathered together in New York this past summer to form the Women's National Abortion Action Coalition (WONAAC). WONAAC is organized around three basic demands and has a steadily developing program working toward their re-^ solution. They are: 1. The repeal of all anti- abortion laws, and the corollary demands of, 2. No forced sterilization and 3. The repeal of all restrictive contraception laws, WONAAC calls for a national show of massive force around these demands to be held November 20 in Washington, D.C, and San Francisco. It will be the first national demonstration ever demanding abortion-law repeal. According to women from WONAAC's national office in Washington, contigents already set to march include Women in Psychology (the radical women's caucus of the American Psychological Association), church women, Third World women, high school women, campus women, gay women and welfare mothers. WONAAC is also involved in legislative and judicial pressure activities; in investigating existing abortion facilities on campuses, in clinics, hospitals and doctors' offices; and in exploring possibilities for litigation and class action suits. WONAAC is also laying the ground work for a Women's commission to develop testimony for a national hearing on abortion the week prior to the November 20 demonstration, and will formulate recommendations to be presented to appropriate branches of the government that same week. Dedicated to the proposition that a woman has the right to choose whether or not she will bear children, possible recommendations the Commission might make, according to WONAAC, are: —the repeal of all anti-abortion laws, —the passage of an amendment stating that no laws be passed abridging women's rights for abortion or contra- CONTINUEO Page 6... .
