Black students on some white campuses also held demonstra- tions. At Western Michigan Uni- versity in Kalamazoo, Mich, about Ion black students entered the student Center about 6:30 am. the day after the assassi- nation, and closed the building. Students left the building only after the Administration met a list of six demands, including a promise to re-examine the “racist curriculum.” Students at the University of Maryland held a rally on cam- pus, and there were calls for racial harmony and more Negro history courses. The students sang, “We Shall Overcome." About 3,000 students at the University of California at 1.05 Angeles listened to a tape-re- corded speech by Dr. King. Black student leader Artie Ivie said, “if Martin Luther King can be shot down, it shows the goals and techniques that black people will have to use.” A BLOODY DREAM At San Francisco Stale Col- lege, a huge sign was placed In front of the school cafeteria. The sign read, “He had a dream." Red drops symbolizing blood were painted around the word dream. All campuses of the City Uni versity oi New York were closed. About 5,000 high school and college students gathered in Central Park to mourn Dr. King's death. One speaker, Jarvis Tyner, national secretary of the WEB. DquiS Clubs said, “Give me treedom or give me death, be- cause that's what it will take to change America.” About 300 police watched the demonstration. Black students at Wayne Slate University in Detroit gathered In the Student Center under a picture of black militant l-l. Rap brown and were belligerent to white students. Also in Detroit, three fires were started in the Cass Technical High School building. OFFICIAL END OF NON-VIOLENCE in Washington, D.

VEoslon, Chicago, San Francisco, New York DRAFT CARDS POUR IN DURING APRIL 3 RESISTANCE BOSTON, April 5 (LNS) — Approximately 550 drait cards were turned in at demonstra- tions this week, almost all ol them on Wednesday, the third national day bi man resistance held during lhls academic year. This brings the total number n! draft cards that have been turned in or burned this year to about 1,300 according to the Resistance. More than 1,000 were turned in on the first drati resislance day, October 16, and an additional 150 on December 4. The three major demonstra- tions Wednesday were in Boston, San Francisco, and New York. In Boston about 200 persons turned in draft cards at a de- monstration 0n the Boston Com- mon before a crowd 0i 12,000. The cards were sent in Presi- dential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, rather than to the Justice Department as is usual. Three persons also turned in their induction papers. In San Francisco draft resis- ters him throughout the Bay Area turned in 144 draft cards to 92 women, 13 clergyman, and 12 veterans who Will mail them to the Justice Department, mak- ing lhem liable for aiding drait resisters. About 2,000 people at- tended the rally at the iederal building “1 San Francisco. In New York so cards were turned in at a demonstration before a crowd of 1,500 in Cen- Iral Park. Another 501 persons signed cards indicating compli- city with the resisters. Four cards were turned in at Man- hasset on Long island and about 20 cards are expected to be turned in at II demonstration in Ithaca, New York on Friday. In Chicago about I5 persons mailed their draft cards to the Justice Department after a rally at Which about 250 persons heard Dr. Benjamin Spock, who is under indictment in Boston for counseling oralt resistance. lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll l2? GURRIGULUM (Continued from page 4) credits can be earned in a program requiring regular par- ticipation during a school year; one credit would be given [or an activity demanding inten- sive but irregular participation during a year or regular par. licipation during a semester, A maximum of 4 credits may be earned in one activity, and no more than B such credits will counll toward graduation. These hours would carry no grade-point evaluation. These changes were engi- neered with the intention of pro moting interdisciplinary studies and discouraging heavy spec- ialixation. How do graduate schools, with their tendency to stress narrow concentration, re- act in this type of liberal prep- aration? Wall noted that several lead- ing universities, such as Har- yard, Wisconsin, and Brandeis have created interdepartmental programs at Ihe graduate lev- el. If the top schools begin, Wall feels, others will soon follow. Another six persons turned In tllelr draft cards during a Ser- vice of Conscience with several local ministers at the University of lllinois. The cards were leit on a desk at the Champaign- Urbana draft board. There were demonstrations in three other major cities With 24 cards turned in in Philadel- phia, eight in Los Angeles, and 14 in Minneapolis. in Minneapo- lis one card was also burned while two other persons burned army discharge papers. One at the Los Angeles resistors had three possible determents: as a student, a minister, and a vet- eran. College towns were the sight of the other demonstrations with 30 Cards turned in at Yale University in New Haven. Conn; eight at the University at Michigan, three at Princeton Theological Seminary in New Jersey; two at: the University OI North Carolina; and four at the University of New Mexico. in New Mexico the FBI an- nounced it was conducting an “appropriate investigation” and one Air Force enlisted man who was carrying a sign saying “hell, no, I won't go" was ur- rested by military police. Demonstrations were also planned iur Cincinnati, St. Louis, and Syracuse, N. Y., but all were canceled. As expected, there was an increase over the number of Cards turned In in December, probably due primarily to the abolition of graduate student deferments, which draft resis- tance leaders say has greatly increased student inlerest in their efforts. Illllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll EX LOCO DYING By RUSSELL ELLIOTT 5&3 Staff Writer Ex Loco Parentis is dying. According to Mike Pcnzner, Smith sophomore and manager oi the coffeehouse, “We can no longer atiord the present estab- lishment at 829 Broad. Our lease is up in May." In the past about 32000 has been raised, largely through grants from the Board of Re llglon, SGA, and the Student Initiative Fundr Other con- trlbulors were alumni, iaculty, students, President Glenn beg- gett ($100), urea churches, and the Class of ’61. This money has paid for little more than the heat bill and rent, totalling about $1700, for the two and a halt semester: during which the Coffeehouse has been open. Penzner does not anticipate receiving the funds needed m keep Ex Loco alive next year. He sees the prospects of find ing a place that is cheaper and closer to campus as being “very dim." “At times we've had prob- Iems with publicity and pro grams,” he admitted, “but when we’ve been successlul, the response has been tremen- done." I? GHOIOE (Continued from Page 7) have been given complete free- dOm to delermine which candia dates and issues go on the bal- lot, as well as oiher policies. That does seem to be the way It is working. When the board of directors met last week In the Washington Hilton, there was no one from Time at the meeting as they wrangled over the final candidates and issues which will go on Ihe ballot. The directors were In Wash- Ington for tour days. In between meetings with everyone 1mm President Johnson (“He looked like a ghost," said one) to leaders or the Young Republl» cans, they spent long hours picking the candidates, choos- lng which questions would go on the ballot, and wording the questions. with mostly liberals on till board, they need special pro- Menu in trying to make sure that conservatives were new ed ruirly on the ballot For example, they had their hardest time working the “hawks” al- ternatives In Vietnam, which most of them oppose (although they generally refuse to give their personal pos us on the war and are obligated not to endorse or work for any can- did-ate). FOUR CONSERVATIVE CANDIDATES They wound up with only two conservatives on the ballot— Reagan and Wallace, plus Nixon and Johnson, who Will draw many conservative votes. The rest of the 14 candidates are “moderate to liberal." Having fewer candidates may work to the right Wing's advantage, however, Since moderate and liberal votes will probably be more fragmented. At one point, when there were about 20 people still on the bal- lot, only three of them hard-line conservatives, Harris told the board, “Sometimes I wish I hadn‘t picked all student lead- ers and had just picked some students out of the middle of a big lecture hall. That list is balanced much too heavily to [he left.” The candidates will all be listed Iogether in alphabetical order. Students will pick their first, second, and third choices. The first choices will be used to determine the winner, while the second and third choices will be used ior analysis. Write-ins will be permitted. Listed on the ballot lor Pres- ident will be Democrats Robert Kennedy, and Eugene McCar- thy; Republicans Richard Nixon. George Romney, Nelson Rockefeller, Ronald Reagan, Marla Hatfield, John Lindsay. Charles Percy, and Harold stassen; plus iormer Alabama Gav. Gearge Wallace (Ameri— can Independent Party) and Fred Halstead of the Socialist Workers Party. The directors wound up drop- ping several other candidates, including J, William Fullbrigl’lt, Texas’ conservative Sen. John Tower, Dr. Benjamin Spock, and Gen. James Gavin, They decided not to pare the list too sharply, however, because they wanted to give students a wide variety. “The question,” said Wisconsin student body president Mike Fullwaod, "in whose Page Filleul I? GROSSETT (Continued from Page 13) my rights. One wonders, l0! Mr. Schnerov is no Psycho. i do not wish, in lhese pal-ab graphs, to attack or defend the action of Ihe United States in Vietnam. Horrible as that ac~ tian may be, it is a transient and local matter, beneath which lie principles or perma- nent importance. My point is to expose the iallaciuus rea- sons given by so many of those Involved tor their decisions and actions. If we are going to opposq the “war”, than we ought to do it on sound ground. Ali alheistical or unnatural appeal to conscience is fallacious, 9 two edged “petard” on which the resisters will find them- selves hclst if they but stop to think. Perhaps drinking will sickly them n'er and result in just such a devastating paraly- sis as grips Hamlet—but at least then they would have th grim consolation that they ha , joined in with the great tragic heroes of the Western worldI with Achilles. with Hamlet. A! It stands, their model is real- ly a misunderstood and dim wrted Aeneas. Western culture and civiliza- tion have given us, in the great books. models for all forms 01 conduct. By applying con: sciousness we will, I believe' be able to solve this particular problem of conscience which now disturbs us all, both inter- nally and externally. in Shortg I am arguing that paldeia—even that debased form of paidell which is the modern small liberal arts college—is the pro- per means by which to reach the end. And so far as I can tell from the illiterate state~ merits generally made about conscience, damned few of those who appeal to conscience haVI tried this means. lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll choice is Choice, our choice or. the students' choice?” AVOID RADICAL BOYCOTT They also spend a good deal or time trying to avoid a boycott of the electlon by campus radi- cals. Harris said he found radi- cals cool to the idea in hll visits to campuses. Most rad- icals reject electoral politics as a means oi changing policy. They are also likely to be skop. tical of an election involving large numbers of college stu. dents, most of whom are moder- ale and unlikely to vote radical. So. although a number or doves made the ballot almost automatically, the directors de» cided that there might not be enough involved radicals, As an answer they added Fred Hal- stad, who is running for Presi- dent from the Socialist Worker. Pany on a plattorm of black power and immediate with- drawal from Vietnam. One of liarris’ answers to rad» lcals is that “tworand-arhalt million Americans ought lo be able to have some impact on the policy or the country." That, then, is the key question about Choice ’58: will it have any im- pact on American policy and on the election? If it doesn't (and it has so far been ignored at least by most of the press), then radicals will have addition- al prooi at their view that stu- dents must take direct action to influence policy.
