Opinions expressed by the columnists do not necessarily reflect those of the newspaper. Page 2 Vol. XXXVII, No. 34 Tuesday, February 15, 1972 Old Main It is easy to sympathise with the Lumbee Indians at Pembroke State University, and to understand why they do not want the State of North Carolina to tear down Old Main. At the same time, though, their feelings are probably much deeper than any white can realize. Old Main, on the campus at Pembroke, was built in 1923- 24 and for a number of years was totally Pembroke State Classrooms and administrative offices and an auditorium were all there. Old Main then was much like Joyner Building in its earlier years. It's because of this parallel between the two buildings, that we can see why the Lumbee are causing suchan uproar. The Indians claim Old Main is more than just a tradition, though. They say that it is part of their heritage. Pembroke was once an all-Indian school, for the Lumbee, a nation of Indians who often were not recognized as Indian by whites o r by other Indians, and some of whom would not themselves claim to be Lumbee. But as the Blacks in recent years have stopped trying to be "more white" and are now looking for equality as Blacks, the Lumbee, too are searching for a heritage. To them, Old Main is a part of that heritage. Robert G. Bourne, though,a senior consulting engineer for the state has estimated restoration costs at well above $500,000. The college administration said that the site on which Old Main sits i s the only place on campus the new $1.6 million auditorium and arts The Western Carolinian Published twice weekly through the academic year and weekly duringthe summer fay the students of Weitern Carolina University.

The Board of Trustees voted to recommend to the Council of State that the building be torn down, and the Council of State voted to tear it down. And citizens in the area are predicting violence if an attempt is made to tear the building down. It looks as if a good deal of compromising is going to have to take place before the question is resolved, and maybe, for once, the Indians will win. UJAT€^«.O^Tr<M^S<T^eS M^C* RGCfcS... . T"j | «ouer<M fecAQsi . (jgft <3Ur7)_ £*? Move "hippies" outside! To The Editor: Concerning JWR's commentary on the Blue Grass Festival. We do not need to move the Festival outside, but we do need to move the spectators who disrupt the Festival. Reid Gymnasium was filled with people who have grown up with this kind of music and love it, The "hippies" who invaded the Festival Saturday night had only one thing in mind - to disrupt the proceedings and to make fun of the mountain people,, Buzzard probably never saw a pair of overalls before someone suggested the idea to him. My point to this letter is to convey a message to the "hippies" from the people of this area, and I believe I can speak for most of them. We don't bother you when you bring your "devil believers," special programs, etc. to WCU. Flease, on nights when you have nothing better to do than disrupt a group of 5 and 6 year olds doing their best at a Blue Grass Festival, keep yourselves in that litUe corner of the University Center which you normally accomodate Then we will respect you for that, but mind you that is all. Wiley Ray Henson Guilty conscience To The Editor: After reading last week's papers, I began to feel guilty, so I guess my apologies are due I apologize to Lester Flatt and the performers because one with authority was so ignorant of bluegrass and country music festival etiquette that he didn't know that the dance platform is always open to all who are so motivated by the music that they have to dance. I apologize to Buzzard because the audience, myself included, let him be our puppet. He did what we wanted to do but didn't because it isn't cool to let loose. I apologize to the policemen because they were blamed when they were only following ORDERS. I apologize to the violent spectator for being in his way as he jumped Buzzard and for getting angry as I fell. I apologize to all people and performers that leave Cullowhee with the empty feeling of performing for anaudi- ence which acts like robots. Lastly, I apologize to Dean Dawson because no matter how hard I try to be open-minded I can't help feelingthat he behaved like an ass. Oh yes, I apologize to myself for feeling I had to apologize. Dona McKinny P.S. Someone ought to apologize to the student body for the triflingeditorial about the bluegrass shindig which appeared in last Tuesday's WESTERN CAROLINIAN, An editorial should take sides one way or another instead of inventing explanations. De-criminalize, but. • • The National Commission on Marijuana and Drug Abuse is in favor of eliminating all criminal penalities for the private use and possession of marijuana. If the legalization of marijuana ever occurs this will undoubtedly be the first step. Those that smoke pot, though, shouldn't get all bent out of shape with jubilation too soon, though. The commission, while in favor of the de-criminaliz- ation of marijuana, is not in favor of de-criminalizing some of the technicalities that go a- long with smoking. For instance, the recom- mendation of the 13-member commission does not propose that criminal penalities for the sale of marijuana be done away with. People could still be sent to jail, too, for growing pot, giving it to friends, transporting it, or smoking it in public. So, while the commission re= quests that smoking of mari° juana in private be legalized, it is against selling it, giving it away, growing it or transporting it, The only way, then, to legally smoke pot, if the recommendation is accepted, is to have it materialize out of the air in one's living room. The commission, of course, didn't state this in the recommendation, but it certainly must be implied.
