  • Page 4 THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN Thursday November 1, 1973 ERA Needs Support Once again the Equal Rights Amendment is coming before the N. C. state legislature for ratification. The amendment, which entitles men and women to have equal rights under the law, was defeated last March due to the warped sen- timentalism of a few senators who seemed to think it a threat to Mom's apple pie and Shirley Temple's virginity. The U. S. Congress, by vote of more than the constitutionally required two-thirds of the members, has recommended1 to the states that they approve the ERA. If three-fourths of the state legislatures (38) ratify the amendment, it will become the 27th amendment to the constitution. The ERA comes before the N. C. legislature in January, so now is the time to bombard our representatives and senators with letters calling for its ratification. The Equal Rights Amendment will not, as many of its opponents advocate, integrate bathroom facilities and sleeping quarters, invalidate laws against rape, or force women to serve combat duty. It would, rather, treat each person, male and female, as an individual first-class citizen and prohibit discrimination on the basis of sex. This means that public colleges, graduate schools and the education profession would have to admit women on an equal basis with men; property and business laws would have to be modified to include rights for wives as well as husbands; and protective laws for women would either be eliminated or expanded to include men. The ERA does not promote deprivation of any woman's homemaker status. It will simply permit each woman a choice of how to live her life. Sex discrimination touches all women in our society. It is a very real problem which must be recognized and alleviated. And the ratification of the ERA is a definite first step. >iirinfi WM*»enJ"?JL* wore fcwiMe **■££?• pr«ten+ <* T*ptAj(**fr ■*>\»n or -H*"' fps ttHWootw.-BotI ofa»« & always hive <*#£% f.lir*).

Jf' Mt&* M&i Malodorous Mutts 11 Dear Editor: We are eon'.•' oied about the presence of dogs in the lobby of Helder Residence Hall. They have become a nuisance to the students and people cannot sit on sofas anymore because dogs are lying on them or the fleas and the smell still linger. The maids have a hard time cleaning up without having this added burden. The problem is so bad that many- parents visiting the campus this weekend were upset by the odor of wet dog pervading Helder lobby. Even worse than their presence in the residence halls is the constant parading of dogs around the cafeteria in search of food. They have gone so far as to jump in laps and stick their noses into people's plates. The smell is not very appetizing but many are sickening to look at as well. There is a state law against dogs being in places where food is served and it is about time that it was enforced. On Daere fifteen of the Student Handbook rule eight states.'An- imals are to remain outside the building." We have yet to see any action taken to rid the buildings of these unwanted visitors. The Student Handbook states that the students are in sured of having "A clean, healthful, quiet place to live and study." Where is ours? Mary Liverman Libby Kepley Dirty Politics? Efcar Editor: Apparently, I am one of a minority group on campus. All that I've heard in the last few weeks seems to be coming from members of the Democratic party. Such things as dirty- politics and pay-offs seem to be the big issue here. It is ironic to me that during our campus poll to determine presidential preference that overwhelmingly students here were in favor of Nixon, this seemed to be the popular route to follow; however, the reverse seems to exist now. I am inclined to agree with most of the accusations toward the President; however, it appears that most people are not thinking or considering all the facts involved. First it is foolish to assume guilt before it has been proven. Second it is naive to believe that ANY politics are lily white. Can any Democrat deny that it took dirty politics to uncover dirty politics? Did certain Democratic leaders betray professional confidences? If either of the latter two statements can be answered with yes, it is apparent to me the Democratic party is heading down a path of unprecid- ented guilt and deception of its own. I cannot speak for all Re~ publicans on campus and I don't mind be labeled as a member of a dirty party; however, it is important that these allegations be proven beyond a questionable doubt which up to the present time have NOT been. It is important that all of us say our piece, but it is also ridiculous to witness dancing in the streets before that band has arrived. Thomas C. Walker Perverted Wit Dear Editor: In response to JWB's Thursday, Oct. 23, editorial comment entitled "Where's that Book," and without a flowery coverup of my initial feelings, I would like to say, "Frankly my dear JWB, your wit is somewhat perverted." Your assumption that "the young lady found near Clingman's Dome was a frustrated WCU freshman surreptiously disposed of by library employees," appears to be based solely upon a macabre sense of humor. I found no humor in the young lady's very dead, bloated face pictured upon my dorm bulletin board, nor in the circumstances of her death, and I'm convinced her family (whomever they may be) will find no cause for laughter either. I suggest you relocate your observations to incidents along the line of crushed dog in garbage trucks, which probably set your inner glow a- fire. Asking you to withold comment would be senseless, your kind never change, and alas, my kind never do either. Mary Schillereff Kill The Ants Dear Editor: A few weeks ago, when the plague of ants first struck the campus and everyone was bi= tching, Harrill Hall and supposedly some of the other halls, made what seemed a genuinely- constructive ( or remedial) move: a roster was placed at the office, for all students with the problem to sign, and it was generally understood that the rooms would be sprayed soon. Behold: a great amount of time has passed, many cookies, cakes and other good=> ies have been destroyed, and the pests havemultiplied-butno spray hath come. One could draw several conclusions from this: either 1- the administrators have not been successful in finding an exterminator, 2- the administrators have forgotten, 3-the ants have taken over Bird Building, or 4- there are no insecticides in Jackson County. Being as faithful as one can be, I trust that efforts have been made to remedy this situation. However, I doubt that the students are going to wait much longer for the sanitary living conditions they are entitled to. Kenneth Christian Harrill Hall, 702-A WCU Watergate Dear Editor: The present conflict in the S.G.A. Senate brings W.C.U. it's own Watergate affair. We now have a senate comm= ittee investigating the president and vice-presidentandtheir action. The legality of those actions is to be determined by the committee. In Washington a somewhat similar situation is taking place. A senate committee is investigating Nixon for his actions during the election. The legality of these actions is being determined by the committee. All ofthismudslingingis nonsense. The senate in both cases should stop it all and get to legislating bills as pointed out in Tuesday's feedback. Then it might be "possible that the student body would be able to respect it rather than thinking of it as the farce that it has become." Barry G. Carver No Complaints Dear Editor: I am one of the few people who ain't got a complaint I wanted to express to the campus through the Carolinian. I am rather an education major who writes the way he speaks and who has heard you don't criticize a person for the way he talks or tell him he is wrong. (Dr. Craddock, Mclntyre, efc, al.) What I do want is to make an open request to students, faculty and anybody el se who reads this. Non-education majors would not realize the hassel we people go through having to make ideas files, clippings files and materials files. For these, we need a bunch of newspaper, magazines and books. Even published materials which are basically smut or even hardcore porno have some contribution to our needs. I've hit all of the book sales and giveaways, subscribe to three magazines and scrounge constantly, yet my supply is falling way short of demand. I ain't much of a beggar and I wasn't designated "Official Letter to the Editor Writer", but I saw the need and at this point, I, among others CONTINUED Page 5 . . . „
