Defends Draft Card Burning: Sets Up Memorial Scholarship “I burned my draft card to cre- ate a dialogue about the war in Viet Nam," said Steve Smith, for- merly a University or lowa stu— dent, in a speech at the State College or iowa justil‘ying his rad- ical action. He ielt the burning of a draft card was a symbolic pro- test against the war. “It the government prohi ts dralt card burning, it is prohibit- Ing the right of tree protests Free speech, including free protest, is tlle backbone of a democracy." "The word ‘un—Amerlcan' should be applied only to those who deny the freedom of speech” Smith felt that laws against drait card burn- ing were comparable to suppres- sion of free speech and in opptr sition to the first amendment. “The draft card is only a piece of paper. I’ve never heard of any~ one being put in prison ior burning a piece of currency.” Smith con- cluded that he would go to jail if drafted. On January 4. 1966, Samuel Younge, jr., a Tuskegee institute student was murdered while para tictpating in a civil rights activity. Since Tuskegee and St. Olaf are sister schools, the students at St. Olaf decided to set up a memorial scholarship for a Tuskegee stu< dent for a single year as an ex— pression oi their sympathy. A fast of one meal was the manner in which St, Olat's parlia- ment decided to raise the scholar- ship money. They then solicited DISCOUNT CENTER Veto Jar Deodorant $1.00 Value '9‘ TIMEX WATCHES For Ladies and Gents 55.21 .n ..

It was then decided that the breakfast fast would receive Wider support. which it has. The only trouble, as the St, Olaf paper points out, is that the additional donors gained by changing the time at the fast to breakfast are those who sleep through it any- way.

Second, the North Campus resi- dence system must be made more flexible. It has become too self- contai ed, generating its own anti- intcllectual ethos. An annual ro- tatlon of students based upon in- dividual choice would counteract this tendency and encourage an outlook which encompasses the entire college community. Yet the advantages or the hall system in providing a focus 01 identity for incoming freshmen and serving as a means or local government must be preserved. Thus house presi- dents on North campus must con- tinue to be elected by the resi- dents of each llall. Also, there should be no discrimination ac- cording to class in the residence system. Freshmen have had an op- portunity to demonstrate leader- ship within an integrated campus; they should not be isolated as second-class citizens. Abolition of the Senate is in- advisable, since the CofHP and the AWS Board tend to concern themselves only with domestic regulations and lack experience in iulfilling other areas of stu- dent concern, Rather, a new Sen- ate should be composed of all presidents. plus an equivalent number of representatives elected at large, who would serve as spokesmen for the whole elector- ate. Legislation could be initiated within the Senate or by the Cofl-iP and the AWS Board noting sepa~ rateiy.

All t Two Can Talk Easily (Continued from Page 2) though most of them are quite un- comfortalrle: the steps in the Fine Arts building, the steps in the basement of steincr. A.R.H,, the Chapel, and even the Forum at certain times or the day. In tact, almost every building can be used if two people want to talk. Un- fortunately, when this expands to three, four, or more, the places where they can meet are rapidly diminished. For six people to meet is almost a physical impossibility, Early in the day the lounges can be uscol. But for one, people are house tribunals should be elimi- nated, particularly when their pro. cedure violates the SGA Consti- tuition by presuming a defendant guilty until proven innocent. As compensation, all students must have the right to appeal any fine to their Primary Court. Although this will impose a heavier load on the higher courts, an improve- ment in fair and complete enforce ment should result. it these suggestions are to have any value, they must be a prelude to positive action. Any- one who can offer an elfective program should submit it to the student body in the SGA election We can either meet. this challenge with maturity or hecome, like \Voi‘dsworth’s England, a “fan of stagnant Waters."

A solution to this lack at places to talk could be the open- ing of Gardner lounge to men. A better solution to this prob- lem would be having daily open dorms, There are many pros and coils concerning this issue which I would rather not deal with now. I would only like to try to correct what seems to me an erroneous view which thc (aculty and ad- ministration hold, It is my im- pression that the faculty and ad- ministration leel that the students want extended open dorms purely for sex. This is not the case! Even now, with our limited weekly open dorms many of them are used for parties of more than two people. In tact, I would say that most at them are used in this manner. Daily open dorms would provide a place where the students could go and talk without being dis- turbed. The college must recognize that it cannot lump all of its students together in one group as “stu- dents.” If the college provides Iacillties for those who can study with noise, then it must also pro- vide facilities tor those who can't, If the college provides facilities for those who enjoy talking ahovo noise, as in the North Lounge or the Grill, then it must also provide facilities for those who enjoy talka ing in a more relaxed atmosphere. Even if it doesn’t truly believe that all the students are “respon. sible adults," as it says it does, it must still provide 101' those who are. Until the faculty and the admin- istration lose their seemingly basic disinterest of the students, this will never be accomplished. David Swee ‘69 WHERE YOU NEVER PAY RETAIL!
