WILLIAM WIDENER. William Widener, mayor of Berkeley, California, and one of the New Leaders in urban government, spoke to students in Cowan Hall.

HOMINGCOMING QUEEN AND COURT. Terry Hules was selected as the 1973 Otterbein Winter Homecoming Queen at halftime activities during last Saturday's basketball game against Urbana. Patty Groen was her Maid of Honor and Mary Heath was 1st Attendent. Otterbein won the game 78-77 *

Discrimnation is wrong. Right? Right! It is wrong to discriminate against women. It is wrong to discriminate against poor people. Right! It is wrong to discriminate against ethnic groups. It is wrong to discriminate against age groups. The list could be extended indefinitely.

When one believes that he has been discriminated against, he protests in every way he can-strikes, demonstrations, court cases. But what happens when the shoe is on the other foot? What happens when discriminatory practices are in our favor? All of us are in some sort of a majority group, and when we are favored by discrimination we accept it as our due-we have beaten the system again.

One case in point is reduced air fare for students. Although discounts of this sort are very common in many areas, what is this, really, but sugar-coated discrimination?

Is this not a form of discrimination on the basis of age? But students are indignant over the recent abolition of special youth air rates. What a tremendous difference is made by a slight change in viewpoint.

Health Center Defended

To the Editor:

This article has been written to correct the erroneous concept given about the Otterbein Health Center. An article that appeared

weeks ago gave the impression twelve hours a day during the

that the Health Center was not giving the students the best health service possible

The article contended that the l:lealth Center is incompetent in giving proper diagnosis; that the Health Center gives improper treatment. Both are incorrect.

If the author of the Tan and Cardinal article had been desirous of giving a true accounting, she would have written about the long hours put in by the Health Center staff to insure proper diagnosis and treatment. No where in the article was there anything which reported that the nurses had to work ten to twelve hours a day during the London Flu period. There was no reference about the nine students that needed to be admitted to the Health Center staff to insure proper diagnosis and treatment. No where in the article was there anything which reported that

London Flu period There was no reference about the nine students that needed to be admitted to the Health Center which meant every bed in the center was filled. The article failed to report that the nursing staff called the dormitories to determine the exact number of sick and to advise those who were sick to come to the Health Center to be seen by the doctor or the nursing staff

The soul purpose of the Health Center is to insure the physical and emotional well-being of the entire student body of Otterbein College. Any student, regardless of his medical problem, large or small, may go to the Health Center and receive competent aid.

It would be nice if an article could be written about the 0 tterbein Health Center that presents an accurate picture, not a distorted one

Peace in Vietnam · Doubtful

(CPS)-It is unlikely that the cease-fire agreement, labeled "peace with honor" by President Nixon, will lead to peace for the Vietnamese people or an end to United States involvement in the affairs ofSouth Vietnam.

There are a number of inherent weaknesses in the agreement itself which thwart- a peaceful settelment.

Although armaments, munitions, and war materials are prohibited from being introduced into south Vietnam, replacement of military equipment which is damaged, destroyed, worn out or used up is permitted. This leaves the door open to continued arms supply of the Republic of Vietnam (RVN), the Saigon ·government, and the Provisional Revolutionary Government (PRG), the political wing of the Viet Cong.

The Saigon government already has an army of a million men, armed and trained by the United States Its navy and air force are among the largest in the world, despite the fact that it is smaller in size than the state of Washington. The United States can be expected to continue arms shipments to the Saigon government as needed.

The hopes for transferring the Vietnam conflict from the military to the political sphere, which rest on the proposed National Council of National Reconciliation and Concord, appear doomed to failure.

The Council, to consist of representatives of the RVN, PRG, and a "neutralist," has the responsibility for settling such key issues as restoring democratic liberties, the liberation of political prisoners, and the setting up of free elections in south Vietnam.

election, Truong Dinh Dzu, a peace candidate who ran a strong second to Thi~u, was imprisoned

In the 1971 election, General Duong Van Minh, Thieu's only opposition, dropped out of the running charging that the vote was rigged.

Even Vice President Nguyen Cao Ky, who was disqualified from running, regarded the election as unconstitutiona1, undemocratic, and illegal. Ky said, "I ask the people not to participate in the election, not to go to the polls, not to accept the results of the election."

The last blow to democratic procedure in south Vietnam came in September, 1972 when Thieu abolished the election of all local village officials

Sev~ral newspapers have been closed down, and 48 publishers have been fined for violating the harsh press laws.

Demonstartions and any display of anti-government are strictly banned

Certainly one of the touchiest subjects for the Council will be the release of political prisoners being held in sou th Vietnamese jails.

There are an estimated 100,000 to 300,000 civilians imprisoned, many without trial, for not agreeing with Thieu's political views. They range from professed Communists , to relatives of suspected Communists, to Buddhists, to students, to Tan Ngor Chau, former Secretary General of the Lower House of Parliament, and peace activist, Madame Ngo Ba Thanh

The National Council of National Reconciliation and Concord, which has the task of solving these problems, requires unanimity for any action. This gives a veto power to each of the Continued on 6

A.-Sometimes I wonder. I know I didn't come here to get married, but I think I've forgotten what I did come here for.

Q.-What's a nice girl like you doing?

A.-1 don't know why I don't seem to have time for anything. I spend so many nights alone in the dorm, I should be a whole term ahead on homework, but somehow I never get any done.

Q.-What's a nice girl like?

A.-Nice guys.

Q.-What's a nice girl?

A.-This is the heart of the question-naive. Most guys will agree that the nice girls are in a - class by themselves, set apart from other girls. Many guys don't know any nice girls. Many guys don't know any nice girls personally, but they can nearly always recognize them. "Tight-assed virgin bitches who won't give a guy anything," one football palyer described them. In defense I asked him how many he knew. He said none. And since he did know me, I took it as sort of a compliment).

Nice girls are the ones who spend weekends in the dorm. Some of them are really cute; the rest have good personalities. They're very, well, nice. But they're a little shy, a little awkward with guys, and they aren't 'easy', and they take a guy even if he is a dubber. Their single disadvantage is that they don't want to have fun with a guy, they're looking for someone to fall in love with.

Tomorrow: The Power to Endure

by John Aber

Tomo"ow is a film with a simple preJ11ise. This being tha t the most common of men are capable of feeling the most complex of emotion s. In dealing with a theme of this nature , a filmmaker has two basic choices: he can either shroud the issue behind a plethora of cloudy symbolic images (replete with fuzzy esoteric dialogue), or he can try to convey his idea in an honest straightforward fashion. At present, the former technique is by far the more popular, if for no other reason than it appears to be sophisticated. Nonetheless, it can be pleasantly refreshing to veiw a film that lets the story tell itself. Discounting convention, this is precisely what Tomorrow doe s.

Based on Faulkner's story of the same title, and filmed on location in the deep South, Tomorrow presents us with a story of love, but one of a unique bent. This different type of love concerns a simple cotton farmer and the devotion he feels toward a child that is not his. While working as a caretaker of a deserted sawmill, the farmer discovers a homeless woman, laden with child, on the property Since she has nowhere to go, and is very ill , the man takes her in, and decides to care for her. After the baby is born, the woman consents to marry the farmer at his insistence. Complications arise, however, when the woman dies and the man is left with an infant that he is ill-equipped to care for. But due to a vow made with the dying woman, the farmer takes the infant to his cotton patch, and attempts to raise the child as his own. It is needless to spoil the ending of the film by

relating it here, but (as could be guesse d) happy endings are not very prevalent among the poor of any region.

But notwithstanding the outcome of the movie, what we have is a simple story about simple people. A story that calls for an understa ndi ng sympathetic treatment, not needless embellishment.

Fortunately, director Joseph Anthony and his cast alike have given Faulkner's tale the treatment it deserves. The result is a poignant and beautiful movie.

Implementing a basically unadorned technique, Anthony allows the camera to follow the action, rather than intrude on it. Obtrusive music and superfluous cuts never interfere with the story itself-which is of paramount importance. This is not to say that the film is

Guest Artist to Direct Shakespeare Comedy

David Hooks, sophisticated and expressive 30 year acting veteran who for 10 years has directed an ex tensive number of plays , has arrived on the Otterbe in College campus as professional guest director for "Much Ado About Nothing."

The Professional Educational Repertory Theatre production of "Much Ado" will appear alternating with "The Lion in Winter" on the Cowan Hall stage, and will open on Feb. 28

Hooks , involved in an an imated and in t elligent dis c ussion of the "Fabulous Invalid ," the American theatre, spe aks with the knowledge of exp erience and study. Graduated wit h the B A and the M A from t he University of North Carolina, he has been guest dir e ctor of Antioch College, where he guided pe rformances o f th e com p lete works of Shakesp e are, and has had prolific experience as actor and dire ctor with numerous college the a tre productions before coming to Otterbein.

He discusses his coming work at Otterbein for "Much Ado " , and the play itself by explaining that Shakespeare uses this particular comedy to say "Oh what a giddy, what a silly thing is man." David Hooks interprets this play to be an examination of the games that people play, and through the dramtization of the games themselves, he finds that Shakespeare has created "an astonishing piece of work."

"There are games for one's personal survival," Hooks elaborates. "Actually, this is a play in which the author didn't stress plot, but instead, used his plot to hang characterizations upon. Everyone in the story gets involved in getting Beatrice and Benedict to admit they love one another, but there are other games. We find games to force characters to look honestly at themselves, games for fun, and there is one very evil game in 'Much Ado About Nothing."

''With incomparable language," Hooks continues with sincere vibrance and building enthusiasm, "Shakespeare demonstrates how far we can go with this evil game before the comedy is lost. This is the mark of the writer's mastery over his language, over the play itself."

Having recently completed a year long role in the afternoon television drama "The Edge of Night," where he appeared as "Dr. Charles Weldon", David Hooks is both stimulated and c hallenged by another opportunity to work with college actors and actresses. He feels strongly that every profes~ional should find time to "go back to the roots of today's drama, the college stage, and back to the roots of his own work." He professes strong belief in combining academics with professionalism, and is quick to encourage programs such as Otterbein's Pr ofes si on al-Edu cation al Repertory Theatre, created last yea r by director of theatre D. Charles W. Dodrill, as an invaluable liaison between the profession and those who seek to become part of it. A member of the Foundation for the Creation of American Theatre Arts, he expresses the wish that more colleges and more professionals could be brought together in this manner.

He says of his own directorial work that he plans to be "overly tough". I wo,uld never have been an actor myself without the fortitude necessary to stick to one's craft. A young actor must be willing to make a fool of himself if necessary, he must love it enough to get out and starve for it, if he is to be an actor on today's stage."

He finds that American drama is in a transitional period, and likens the current theatrical trends to those in all other aspects of contemporary life "We are suffering everywhere

NON CAMPUS

from over-population, which is touching every factor of our basic lives. We are accepting a lot of shoddy work. This acceptance of lower quality affects OU ( writing, the theatre and our music. Shoddiness is becoming a way of life."

"Every performer hates a critic," he continues his discussion, "but it is the responsibility of the critic to point out that we are loosing our values. The big television networks are not meeting their responsibilities, and like Broadway, they have always had a , tendency to be most concerned with grabbing the fastest buck. So long as money remains the only criteria for value, we are bastardizing theatrical work. That is· why I am so delighted that colleges are bringing in the funding for programs involving professionals. With everything else, rt helps us get back to why we became actors and directors in the beginning I expect to get more than I give here at Otterbein, for I have always found the college experience to be exciting, a recharge of talents."

Statements released by both sides in the week prior to the signing of the cease-fire agreement also indicate that peace is not likely to be in store for the Vietnamese people.

In his address to the nation on January 23, Nixon said, "The United States will continue to recognize the government of the Republic of Vietnam as 11}.e sole legitimate government of South Vietnam."

The visit to Saigon of Vice President Agnew reinforces Nixon's statement and demonstrates continuing United States support and aid for Thieu. The Saigon government is totally dependent on U.S. aid which amounts to about $500 million a year.

Madame Nguyen Thi Binh, the Foreign Minister of the PRG, responded in a press conference, "The spirit of Mr. Nixon's statement concerning the Saigon administration is not in conformity with the peace agreement."

She said that the agreement recognized two rival administrations, two armies, and two zones of control , with the PRG being the "only authentic representative of the south Vietnamese people "

The Thieu government does not recognize the existence of the PRG which makes reconciliation based on "equality and mutual respect" difficult to imagine. Comments from Thieu, himself, can hardly be considered optimistic.

On January 23, in a letter read for Thieu on government television, he said, "We should not believe that they have renounced their intensification of efforts to take control of South Vietnam."

In a radio address on · the same day, he repeated his vow to "never" accept a coalition government with the Viet Cong.

On January 24, Thieu told 830 government information officers that south Vietnam's best guarantee of peace was a strong army a1td not the International Control Commission (ICC), which is supposed to supervise the cease-fire. The next best guarantee, he said, was for immediate reaction by the United States against any violation of the cease-fire.

"The ICC is a useless and helpless organization," he siad. "If the Communists violate it (the agreement), then the war will start again."

Thieu is probably right about t hh e efficacy of t11e Control Commission in supervising the cease-fire. The 1160 observers will be facing thousands of square miles of jungle and mountain country,

which 543,000 Americans with hundreds of daily patrols and the best reconnaisance planes could not monitor effectively.

Canadian Foreign Minister Mitchell Sharp, whose country is to participate in the Commission, has also expressed doubts about the value of the ICC. He has asked for freedom of movement in south Vietnam for the ICC and the establishment of a continuing authority to report violations to.

The presence of 145,000 north Vietnamese troops in south Vietnam is yet another reason why the cease-fire is not likely to become a lasting peace. The signed accords state that the 17th parallel is only a provisional and not a territorial

or a political boundary. It also calls for the reunification of Vietnam through peaceful means.

This seems to back up north Vietnam's claim that Vietnam is one country, and they have a right to maintain troops in the south. However, while Nixon was telling the American people that the U.S. would continue to recognize south Vietnam, Thieu was saying that Hanoi had been forced to recognize Vietnam as two separate countries.

Thieu is not likely to tolerate "foreign" troops on "his" soil for very long.

Mr. Eisley K. Witt is not only the Director of Financial Affairs at Otterbein College, he is also one of the most important administrators for the students because it i~ his responsibility to help students to be able to attend Otterbein who could not otherwise afford to do so. His job includes not only trying to secure funds needed for a person to attend Otterbein, it also involves answering questions, letters, and holding interviews with parents and students and then explaining to the parents and students what he had told them

"I had it in mind to attend Otterbein before I thought I'd ever get here," says Mr. Witt because of the strong relation between Otterbein and his home church. "So when the opportunity came, I jumped for the chance to attend." He graduated from Otterbein in 1949 with a major in the social sciences. He taught for ten years in Pennsylvania, then returned to Otterbein in 1960 to work in the Admissions field and eventually he inherited the office of Director of Financial Aid. Presently Mr. Witt's wife and three children are enrolled as students at Otterbein so he definitely feels satisfaction at getting a college education for his family as well as in playing a part in other youngsters getting a college education.

He feels the challenge of his job is to "do the maximum benefits for students who want to come to Otterbein."

Cards Pull Out Two Squeakers; Tie for Crown

by Gar Vance

lf basketball games were only )ne half, then Otterbein might )e in trouble. Luckily , the game s not over until the second half s over, and the 'Bein needed the ,econd half twice in posting wins ast week: 78- 77 over Urbana rnd 72- 71 over BaldwinN"allace.

Against Urbana, the 'Bein :railed 45-26 at the half before t large homecoming crowd. As 1e did against Capital, Bob )eckard hit a jumper from the ;orner to give the 'Bein their mly lead of the game; but, it .vas the one that counted. )eckard took scoring honors .vith 20 points, followed by

,teve Trayler, Mike Hays, and Dave Bromley with 17, 14, and

13 respectively. Bill Arkman and Dave Crawford had 20 points apiece for Urbana who hit on 57% of tl;i.eir shots for the night, 62% in the first half. Otterbein connected on 35 of 69.

Tuesday night, Steve Traylor stole the ball from a B.W. guard and scored the winning layup with 9 seconds left in the game giving the 'Bein a 72- 71 victory over the Yell ow Jackets. The 'Bein trailed by as many as 21 points in the first half 35 - 14 and 41-20, until finally regaining their composure with the help of a pressure defense.

Trailing by 11 at the half, the Cards finally tied the game at 61-61 with 6: 14 remaining on a Jim Reed tip in. The lead jumped back and forth until

Traylor's steal which gave the 'Bein their victory and a share of the O. C. tille, which they haven't done in 30 years.

Thursday night, Otterbein went into the O C. tourneys and played Denison. Our deadline prevented any news of the outcome of this game.

Division Two ,n Three-way Log

In Intramural basketball action last week, Davis I, a predominantly freshman team, pulled a major upset by knocking the previously undefeated Frenchmen out of sole pocession of first place in an impressive 50-41 victory. The Davis win threw the league into a three-way tie for first between both teams and Kings who were idle last week. All three sport 3-1 records. In other games in Division II, Jonda got back on the win trail by over-powering Sphinx 47-41 behind the triple scoring threat of Ron Davidson, Doug Richards, and Ted Downing. In the first game the Turkeys took a double overtime decision from N. Garst 49-44 on the strength of 24 points from Rick McKinnis.

for second place as they both picked up easy victories last week. The sporting goods team out-ran the YMCA 64- 40 behind a balanced scoring attack and the Rats out-gunned Pi Sig 60-32. In the third game Davis II came from behind to beat Sanders 44-39.

In Saturday morning action a light schedule saw the Faculty continue their unbeaten ways by edging the Bio-wierds 35-30. In the second game, the Band handled Scott Hall 32-28.

The dates and hours follows:

ADD:MONDAY,MARCH

the Otters had their backs to the wall losing 23-0. As evidenced, Capital's strength lies in their lower weight classes. As the match moved into the higher weight classes, the Otters began to assert themselves.

Reversing the trend in very quick style, Dan Dougherty pinned his opponent in the first period of their match. Chuck Burchinal followed with a very fine performance that included several close pins and won his match by points. The score then was Capital 23, Otterbein 9 Bill Spooner then followed with a very hard fought match and decisioned his opponent. After the match had ended, Bill was disqualified for unsportsman-like conduct in what was a very questionable call. Two Otterbein team points were deducted and Capital was awarded 6 points for the forfeit. The score quickly became Capital 29, Otterbein 7. The Otters gamely finished out the match in the highly biased gym in the two remaining weight classes, as Ken Shoaf and Doug Ridding both decisioned their - opponents. The final score was, Capital 29, Otterbein 13.

In looking over the match, the score is not indicative of the , results. The weight classes were evenly split, with the Crusaders taking the lower five, the Otters the upper five. The Otters performed very well. Barring the disqualification the score would have ended Capital 23, Otterbein 18.

The wrestlers have a free week now as they tune up for the conference tournament at Baldwin-Wallace College next weekend.
