  • Editorial Comment THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN This newspaper is the Voice of the Students of Western Carolina University. Editorials are from the Editor's desk unless otherwise indicated by the author's Initials. Editorial and advertising policy are decided upon by the Editorial Board and comments or criticisms should be made to the newspaper. Opinions expressed by the columnists do not necessarily reflect those of the newspaper. ■ - -■ ... - . .. _ - Page 4 VOL. aXXVII, No. 22 Thursday', December 2, 1971 'Cullowhee Five-O' Either security patrolman William Dewey Gunnin is letting his military training get the better of him, or he thinks he is a big-time cop on a city beau With one swing of a slapjack two weeks ago, Gunnin broke a student's jaw in two places, caused him extensive dental work, and put him in the hospital for four days, Gun< nin's report was that the stu dent, David A, Walter, hadrea ched into his pocket, as if for a weapon. Walter and three student witnesses say that he was standing with his arms folded when Gunnin struck him. Whether Gunnin's story or Walter's is true matters little. Even ii' Walter was reaching for a weapon, it seems mat Gunnin could have stopped him some other way, The security officer has military training; he is in ex-Marine,afactheusesasa threat at times, and he was dealing with a student that, on h!s own admission, was somewhat intoxicated. If Gunnin had wanted to, he could have stopped Walter without such a brutal move. The incident occurred after Walter had advanced on Gunnin with a broken bottle. Or Gunnin's first command, though, Walter dropped the bottle. Gunnin says Walter then reached m his pocket for a knife hs later found there, and ie struck him. The three witnesses report that Walter was standing still, talking with Gunnin with his arms folded when the officer swung. There are also indications that Walter would not havebsen in Joyner lot, where the incident took place, at all if he had not been intimidated by Gunnin earlier. Gunnin was called to Reynolds Hall because there were women on the hall without authority. Witnesses say that he harrassed Walter, calling him "Chief." One story- is that it was a statement by Gunnin about one of the girls that infuriated Walter, and sent him to the Joyner lot later looking for Gunnin. This is aot the first time Gunnin has exhibited a cocky attitude and overreactive, strong-arm tactics. Last year while chasing a student between Forsyth Building and the Medical Center, Gunnin apparently fired a shot. Though no one saw him pull the trigger, a shot was heard, and the student he caught firmly believes Gun=" nin fired the gun tie was carry ing. Tie student was arrested and charged with public drunkenness, a charge hardly war ranting a shot. Any other member of the se curity patrol, if he had been in Gunnin's place, could have, without any reasonable doubt, handled Walter without break in.? his jaw, causing him to drop out of school, and sending him to the hospital. With any other patrolman, Walter probably would not have been in the lot to begin with. It was Gunnin's cocky, unprofessional attitud" that infuriated Walter, and it was his uncalled-for brutality that hospitalized him. Public Dtfender Dwight Nel son is requesting an investiga tion into the incident. We urge such an investigation, and add to the request, the suggestion that Gunnin be suspended from the security patrol until the in vestigation is over. And if the investigation proves such an action appropriate, we advocate Gunnin's removal from the patrol. He shouldn't be allowed to practice his backhand on students. EDITOR * S NOTEBOOK This is the last paper of 197L With the coming of the new year THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN is still in desperate need of experienced workers. There are always openings for dependable news writers and feature writers. Next year the CAROLINIAN will also need editorial cartoonists, typists, and free-lance photographs. The paper pays $3 per cartoon or photograph used. Typists are paid by the hour and should be able to type better than 65 words per minute with minimum errors. A meeting will be held early next year, but those interested are urged to contact Editor-in-Chief W. Wat Hopkins before the end of exam week; P.O. Box 2049, Cullowhee, 293-5783. Good writers are always needed. it would be impossible to nrge anyon. who has had any journalism experience too muth. Not only would it improve tne present paper, it would also lay the foundations of paid positions in the future. Write the editor P.O. Box 66 'Drama by Dan Dietz' Readers of the WESTERN, CAROLINIAN have seen the last, installment of one of the best, columns ever to appear ia this , newspaper. And it is not by. choice that "Drama By Dan Dietz" will be discontinued. The author is moving to Washington* D.C. The column was started with the understanding that it would be run bi-weekly, alternating with another column. Due to some minor hang-ups, and mainly because of the favorable response to his first column, though, Dan was persuaded to write 'Drama" weekly. That was a lucky break for the CAROLINIAN. Dan is an authority on modern drama. He makes periodic trips to New York where he spends most of his time in Broadway and off-Broadway theatres. His column was not just a drama column; it was also a statement on society and how the modern theatre reflected that society. "Drama By Dan Dietz," for the short time it appearea, satisfied a need the CAROLINIAN has been lacking for too long, In deciding on a csi'imn of its format, one usually must determine the type of column he wants, then find the best man available to write it, That was not the case with Dan's column. With "Drama By Dan Dietz," the resources were A beginning The Student Senate has made a move to do something about off-campus housing, and Student Development has backed them up. It was a small something, but it was a start,, The Senate's recommendation that landlords be re- quired to furnish a lease or contract before his name can be included on the off-campus housing list in the Housing Office may help stop misunder- first discovered, then wer ; tapped,, When an editor has to his avail an author capable of producing a column like Dan's, he has to put him to work. Though we wish Dan the best of luck as he works for his doctorate, we're sorry to see him leave. As a reviewer and columnist, he will be irreplaceable. As a friend, he will be missed. standings to some extent. Unfortunately, though, with housing as it is in Cullowhee, enough people will be looking for places to stay to keep those without leases still in business. Hopefully the Senate will not stop looking at off-campus housing with the one move. Ultimately, though, it will have to be the landlords that make the changes.
