No Narcotics

Probe Here,
Deans Claim

By KENNETH HOSKINS

Kernel Staff Writer
Knowledge of rumored Administration and U.S. Treasury Department investigations into the
sale and use
alleged
of drugs was denied Sunday by
Vice President of Student Affairs
Robert L. Johnson.
Dean of Men Jack Hall and
Dean of Women Doris Seward
also reported no knowledge of the
supposed investigations.
A Kernel probe of narcotics
on campus began during the fall
semester after it was learned a
student in the junior class had
been seen smoking a marijuana
cigarette in his apartment three
blocks from campus.
Stories of other students
were
taking part in
heard throughout the remainder
of the semester, though no
evidence could be produced concerning the number of students
involved or quantities of marijuana or other natcotics used.
During the early months of
the first semester a Kernel reporter could have purchased what
was alleged to be enough marijuana for 12 to 15 smokes for
the price of $5.
The presence of marijuana and
other drugs on American cam
puses has been the topic of
numerous newspaper and magazine articles throughout the
nation in recent years.
Though marijuana appears to
be present on campus from at
least two sources, a variety of
other "kicks" have reportedly
been attempted. These include
the old standbys of benzedrine
and dexedrine on to some more
modern innovations like the consumption of 300 Morning Glory
seeds.
A University student who tried
the flower seeds reported having
hallucinations and experiencing
highly developed senses of feeling,
sight and hearing. He said fear
of permanent
brain damage
would stop any further experiments.
All of these things, some legal,
others carrying federal penalities
for possession, use, or sale, are
available to the University
student who has the money and
knows the right people.

Dr. Von Braun Compares
Lunar, Lindbergh Flights
By FRANK BAILEY

Kernel Staff Writer
"The moon has become our
'jsmic Paris," Dr. Werner von
Braun, one of the nation's leading
space scientists, told a Central
Kentucky Concert and Lecture
Series audience Friday night.
Comparing the Apollo Project and its predecessors, the
Mercury and Gemini projects, to
Charles
Lindbergh's historic
flight across the Atlantic, he said
the "moon plays the part of a
focusing point in our space program just as Paris was the
focusing point for Lindbergh."
Using slides showing the
Saturn rockets to be used in the
trip to the moon, Dr. von Braun
demonstrated the various steps
that would have to be taken to
complete the Apollo Project. He
explained that President John F.
Kennedy set the goal to reach
the moon before the end of this
decade.
"We have made the commitment to get a man there and back
by December 31, 1969, and we
have hired the staff and built

the program to do just that,"
he added.
According to Dr. von Braun,

"The real payoff will not be
landing a man on the moon,
but in the advance of the space
program in other areas." He said
that the United States could
apply the knowledge gained in
the space and scientific field toward the solution of social problems.

"By using the technology of
the space programs, wecanbegin
to develop resources needed for
future existence that have up to
now just been touched," Dr. von

Braun commented.
In other general comments
about space and the competition
of the United States with the
Soviet Union, Dr. von Braun
said competition had been good
for this country because the U.S.
never has had the opportunity
to rest, but has had to go forward.
He said that he was "very
much impressed" with the latest
Soviet space feat, the Luna 9.
"The quality of the pictures from
the Soviet craft was excellent.

College Head Predicts
By WILLIAM GRANT

Special To The Kernel
ATLANTIC CITY, N.J.-'T- he
coming strife in education
will be an encoui.; , between
the faculty and the students,"
Dr. Edward D. Eddy, President
of Chatham College, predicted
Friday.
Dr.
ddy, who has become
a nationwide figure in recent
years being virtually the only
college president to enunciate the
dilemma of the college student,
said students are going to demand more and more from their
professors in coming years.
"Despite a possible trend in
the other direction," Dr. Eddy
said, "it remains valid that the
current reward for good teaching is less teaching."
He pointed out that a teacher
who performs well is given a
lighter load and more graduate
students to help him as a demonstration of the college's appreciation. "Thus," Dr. Eddy

Student Needs

Donors are needed to give
blood to Richard McIIaltan,
junior zoology major who will
undergo open heart surgery Feb.

The student, whose blood

said, "The student
impaired."

is even more

Asked why the gap between
the student and the teacher
seemed to be widening, Dr. Eddy
said it was no longer fashionable
for faculty members to be close
to students. "The sign that a
faculty member is succeeding,"
he said, "is a closed office door.
The assumption seems to be that
if the professor is home in his
study thus inaccessible to the
student he is a productive

scholar."

Dr. Eddy said the "old style
professor" who got to be an associate professor with tenure and
then turned his attention to full
time teaching is no longer a
respected member of the faculty.
He is viewed by his colleagues
as a 'pitiful sight ", he said.
The gap between the student
and the college administrator is
also a wide one, the Pittsburgh
college president said, and he
predicted that students would become increasingly unhappy with
that too.
Dr. Eddy said that he has a
two-hoperiod in his schedule
set aside just for students during
every week that he's in town.
Students drop by his office to
talk about "problems on the
campus, Vietnam, the food in
the cafeteria, or what ever is interesting them." "A president has
to keep in touch," he said.
Despite his predictions of
future strife on the campus, Dr.
Eddy said the student revolution
is over and that "the time of
reconstruction" has begun.
The "lesson of Berkeley" he
said, is that administrators have
learned that "students are not
devices for filling dormitories and
Berkeley

'saved the American college for

the student,' " lie said.
Berkeley also surprised those
who didn't know that "the student was so capable of saying
what he thought so passionately
and so precisely," he said, and
in the process this articulate
student "frequently made the
fumbling faculty member and
the bumbling administration
look strangely uneducated."
Today's student wants to become more involved in the world
around him, Dr. Eddy told the
Education Writers Association.
He quoted one student newspaper article which said in part,
"With so many people now involved in' the adding or destroying of one thing or another,
if one doesn't become a
member of a cause, any
cause, before the decade is over,
he faces the awful possibility
of having to explain to his children just where he was during
the sixties."
"Not all students will be able
to explain to their children," Dr.
Eddy said, "for a great many
of them, perhaps the numerical

world thev live in.
"Above all," Dr. Eddy concluded, "the college student
doesn't ever want to be taken
for granted again. He has taught
the nation that he cares very
much about a number of issues
of importance to himself and
his world. And he is teaching his
professors and deans that he now
cares about the kind of education
.which is made available to him."

Longer Terms For Congress
A long overdue proposal which
would lengthen U.S. Congressional
terms to four years has finally
reached the point of serious national
consideration.

An extention of the terms would,
we think, have marked influence
on upping the effectiveness within
the House of Representatives. Now
a great deal of effective legislative
time is lost in consideration of
campaigns and the
in" of a new crop of
"breaking
legislators every two years.
Political scientists estimate that

each Congressman may be expected
to devote six months toward
planning and executing his reelection campaign, which leaves
a Representative only 18 months
to be a legislator.
Another consideration in lengthening the terms would be relieving
the tremendous financial burden
of elections every two years for
candidates. With spending limits
mostly an unenforceable joke, the
cost of Congressional campaigns
often reaches astronomical proportions.
Although a representative must
bear this financial burden three
times more often than must a
senator, his salary, expense allowance, and prestige is lower than
that of a member of the upper
house.
We think, also, that an electorate
could better evaluate the qualities
of an incumbent based on the record
of a four-yeterm instead of two
short years of service.
ar

The two year term, although
allowing for a quick reflection of
any major change in political
unrealistic
thinking,
imposes
burdens on representatives in terms
of time and money they must invest
in
processes.
We see no great dangers in
extending the term of office to
four years and hope Congress soon

will make this

change.

population is much too overwhelmed with either its social preoccupations or, as the case may
be, with its academic obligations
to ponder the significance of the
war in Vietnam in any context
other than how it may affect their
draft status.
Judgment of news values, of
course, is a subjective process.
The Interfratemity Council might
think it is taking a 'revolutionary'
step when it joins with the
Council to form a combined social committee for bigger
and better weekend parties, but
we might think that this kind of
news belongs buried on an inside
page, if it deserves to be printed
at all.

On the other hand, a group
of students who choose to give
up their Saturday afternoon to
display their disenchantment with
the Johnson administration's Vietnam policies may seem to us to
be very newsworthy.
It is the responsibility of our
city editors to judge all the copy
submitted for publication and to
give it a fair and honest play.
We will, however, be the first
to admit that our judgment is not
beyond dispute. We have our prejudices just like any one else does.
And we feel that a picket on
Saturday afternoon is more important than a party on Saturday night.

Danger Of Red Intervention Stays Subtle

VVASI I INCTON-T- he
dancer of Chi
nese Communist intervention in the Vietnam war is not a massive Korea-styl- e
ground invasion but something infinitely more subtle.
What concerns U.S. policymakers is
a Chinese
effort somewhere
over North Vietnam in which a Chinese plane would tangle with a U.S.
bomber.
No one here is predicting flatly this
will happen. But if and when it does,
President Johnson will confront his most
agonizing choice of the war: whether
to adopt the policy of "hot pursuit"
and permit U.S. aircraft to chase attacking Chinese planes across the border
into China and shoot them down.
There is little danger of massive
ground "volunteers" in Vietnam, mainly because they are not needed. Ho
Chi Minh still has some 250,000 North
Vietnamese regulars, armed and trained,
standing by for duty in South Vietnam.
At this point in the war, the one
thing North Vietnam does not need is
ground reinforcements. In North Korea,
on the other hand, the horde of Chi- -

nese troops who crossed the Yalu Hiver
were essential to stop Gen. MacArthur
from completely occupying the Commu-- '
nist half of Korea. Without Chinese help,
North Korea could not stop the
offensive.
Accordingly, Washington docs not take
at face value Hanoi's propaganda blast
that "scores of thousands of Chinese
youths, including many units of the Chinese liberation forces, have placed their
names on the lists of volunteers to side
with the Vietnamese people."
Rather than a prelude to Chinese
intervention on the ground, the intensifying propaganda campaign is significant for quite a different reason: for
the first time North Viet nam is now advertising the Chinese offer of help.
So sharp a change in Hanoi's party
line could be the signal that Chinese
air intervention over North Vietnam is
now to be expected.
Prior to the present propaganda blast,
Hanoi kept a bamboo secrecy curtain
shielding all Chinese help including
thousands of Chinese laborers, engineers,
and technicians rebuilding North Viet

namese bridges and rail lines destroyed
by U.S. Iximbing. The number of these
Chinese technicians is between 5,000 and
25,000 but no one in the West really
knows.
Ho Chi Minh seems now to be taking
the wraps off clandestine Chinese aid,
and the reason might be a secret agreement with Peking that China will intervene in the air war when pressure from
the U.S. reaches a certain flashpoint.
This flashpoint to trigger Chinese air
aid could be any of the following: population bombing in North Vietnam, an
Allied landing north of the 17th parallel on North Vietnamese territory Oust
as Chinese intervention in North Korea
was almost certainly triggered by the
Inchon landing), or U.S. air attacks close
to the Chinese border.
Moreover, resumption of bombing after the y
pause may have led Hanoi
to believe that the flashpoint is closer
now than it was on Christmas Eve when
the pause started.
To all this must be added China's
psychological need to compensate for an
unbroken record of failures abroad the

Last week in the U.S. Senate
a filibuster succeeded, cloture
failed, and 14-- died as a political issue for a year, if not forever.
Such was the magnitude of
debate that the administration put its prestige on the line
against the convictions of one
Senator, and the Senator won,
hands down.
