Moratorium ActivitiesQuelled In DeferenceTo Local Strike Issue

By Bob Tigert

On Oct. 15, 1969, two thousandantiwar protestors m a r c h e dfrom the Spanish War MemorialPark to Overton Park to showtheir disfavor against the Viet-nam conflict; on Nov. 15, 1969,Washington, D.C. will host halfa million to a million peoplewho plan to demonstrate theirresentment towards the deathsof 40,000 American soldiers.

As for Memphis itself, littlehas been planned. In fact, whenthe National Moratorium Com-mittee sent hundreds of buttons,posters, and stickers, which ar-rived C.O.D., the Memphis co-ordinators, lacking funds, hadto send them back.

When questioned about theMemphis situation, Clark Wil-liams replied that the Morator-ium had been called off in Mem-phis for November in deferenceto the 'School Board/St. Josephsituation. He remarked that themarchers would hate to split upthe protest movement especial-ly if it were to detract from thepassion of the black protest.

Next month, if the war con-tinues and if the Washingtonmarch does not erupt into (asVice-President Agnew has pre-dicted) a violent demonstration,a three day nationwide protestwill occur. The Memphis Com-mittee will then decide on furth-er action (dependent upon theblack protest).

get Committee, Secretariate,and an Information Committee.

The Executive Council will beretained as before, composed ofofficers, commissioners, MUB,WUB, IFC, PAN, Fine ArtsCouncil, Experimental College,Academic Affairs, and a repre-sentative from the Student Cen-ter Administrative Board. Rep-resentatives from the HonorCouncil, Social RegulationsCouncil, and other student gov-ernment organizations will beconsidered for membership.

The Executive Council willwork under an expanded Execu-tive Code which will possiblyhave vetoing powers over theBudget Committee. Mike Pat-ton, president of the StudentGovernment Association, addedthat "'Referendum, recall, veto,and impeachment procedureswill all have to be written intothe new constitution since theold one will be obsolete withthe referendum."

MOST IMPORTANT of thenew committees created is theBudget Committee. Composedof the SGA treasurer, four classpresidents, and four otherelected members, the commit-tee rWill fKhafidle" all fuind s' allo-cated for student activities. Thiscommittee will review and dis-seminate all SGA funds and willresearch proposed budgets. AsPatton emphasized, "The Bud-get Committee will review allfunds and put them where theycan be used more effectively."Each commissioner will stillhave a contingency fund, butwill have to petition for anymajor expenditures. Senate-ap-pointed members for the interimperiod are: Gary Good m.a n,Chip Hury, 'Tom Marshall, andGreg Meeks.

The Information Committee,composed of the Publicity Co-ordinator of the PublicationsBoard, James Dobbins, pub-licity coordinators of each com-mission, and any other inter-ested students, will take over

the responsibilities which the

Publicity Coordinator previous-

ly held. This committee will

collect, coordinate, and publish

information pertinent to campus

life. This includes posters, news-letters, leaflets, positions and

opportunities available to stu-dents, and descriptions of pro-

grams undertaken by various

commissions.

Secretariate will be composed

of the secretary of the SGA, the

four class secretaries, and a

secretary from each commis-

sion. The Secretariate will keeprecords, minutes, correspond-ence, and type, mimeograph,and publ i sh all informationwhich the Information Commit-tee feels is necessary.

AS PATTON SAID, "'We'rechanging the 'student govern-ment; in other words, slicingoff the Senate structure, be-cause it was superfluous andbecause it never worked in thesix years -of its existence. It wasan artificial creation serving nodiscernible student need. Ori-ginally, it was intended to 'serveas a forum at which the studentvoice could be exercised and to.handle the financial workings ofstudent government.

"The psuedo-issue of repre-sentation of course found itswell-spring in the former ofthese two purposes. There's no

need for anybody's voice to be

represented on this campus.

Anybody at any time can makepublic position statements via

the mimeograph, Univers ityForum, or Sou'wester. Anybodycan speak directly to any one

of the school's deans and ex-pect immediate, honest re-sponses. Every person on thiscampus is capable of represent-ing himself at any time and isurged to do so.

"As for the budget, the newlycreated Budget Committee isestablished to deal extensively

and in depth with the SGA bud-get. It will know immediatelyhow much money is where, whyit is being spent and on what.The ignorance that plagued theSenate and resulted in oftenirresponsible manipulation offunds is over.

"OF COURSE, all this ,as-sumes a lot of responsibility onthe part of the students. Hope-fully, everyone will see this asa positive move, opening up thefield of decision making and in-volvement to anyone interested.The questions involved are onesof efficiency and directness, andof creating a structure sensitiveto human needs and energy."

Patton seems to feel that thereferendum will pass. A refer-endum needs -a 3/4 majority ofthose voting to pass.

Coop's Original Opening PostponedPending Record Hassle's Resolution

By Kathy Jorgensen

The newly formed studentCOOP is tentatively scheduledto open within the next fourweeks. The opening, originallyplanned for Nov. 1, has beendelayed because contract agree-ments with various record com-panies have not yet been con-firmed.

Joe and Jackie (Rutledges both) pause, misty-eyed, afterthe death-knell of the late Senate is sounded. The final resultof its destruction, however, is the construction of a new govern-mental order of commissions and involvement.

THE COOP will not be ableto isell records until final con-firmation by New York lawfirms reviewing the contractsis received. Although the restof the COOP's inventory is com-plete, the opening is being heldoff until the record orders canbe confirmed and delivered toSouthwestern.

COOP has now received acharter from the state of Ten-nessee as a non-profit organiza-tion. Officially the Southwest-ern Student Cooperative, Inc.,the corporation's purpose is topurchase and sell goods, tooffer reduced prices and pa-tronage refunds to members,and to "engage in any other ac-tivities which may enrich thesocial, educational, or culturallife of the students and facultyat Southwestern."

ALTHOUGH an experimentaltheatre and an informal facultydiscussion room are planned,present lack of space will con-fine the COOP to one sales-room.

Students may become mem-bers of the organization by sub-mitting a $3 fee when the COOPopens. Following, a short wait-ing period, a general meetingof all members will be held toelect a Board of Governors. Atthis time, a working set of by-laws drawn up by an attorneywill go into effect.

This week saw confronta-tion politics hit the streets ofMemphis. See page 2 for afirst hand report by DebbieSale.

The freshman elections forclass officers have been post-poned until after Thanksgivingto allow students who wererunning for Senator to now runfor another class office.

Abernathy Joins.Of Confrontation

By Debbie Sale

Editorial -The New Deal

Student government at its best is an avenue to studentautonomy; at its worst it is child's play.

Honorable men all, our SGA, has worked hard to relieve theburden of irresponsibility and cumbersome structure. The resultis a unanimous proposal to restructure the Senate by the SGAthemselves. This says much for both the plan and the men whocreated it.

In a report issued by the SGA the motives become obvious."In short, the system represented by the Senate fostered only

frustration, alienation, and a deep-seated artificiality. What re-places this is a structure whose roots are based in the principlethat the essence of student government lies in the simple welfareof the individual unencumbered by bureaucratic superstructure.Every man is his own representative-no suffocating, artificialdistance between the represented and representatives, no moreSenate scapegoat. No more abdication of individual responsibilityto the Senate illusion of 'taking care of business.' Simply a positivemove to deal humanely and immediately with our own problems.

"And thus this is not a cop-out to the recall and not an abolitionof student self government, but a radical rededication of .our be-liefs, talents and powers to effect constructive and continuingchange for student welfare."

The Senate Revision Plan is not as radical as it might appear.The Executive Council will be retained with the increased pro-vision of inclusion of other student forms. The Secretariate ismerely a consolidation of all-ready existing secretaries. Even ifthe present Senate were to continue, such a consolidation 'wouldbe only logical and necessary.

Likewise the information 'committee is a consolidation of whathas been a highly inferior form .of coordinating publicity.

The greatest asset is a Budget Committee of new format thatwill review, research, and disseminate all 'SGA funds. In the pastthe Senate was responsible for the allocation .of. funds. Commis-sioners issued budgets at the beginning of their term which oftentied up funds that could otherwise have been utilized by moredemanding projects.

Offered only contingency funds, the future prospect of unusedfunds 'will be nil. However the coordination of funds will not be aneasy job. Certain established projects and events, such as Home-coming ,and Derby Day, can be reliably estimated. A veto powershould by all means be instituted to prevent the possibility of in-vesting too much power in the hands of the Budget Committee.

The referendum must be passed. It is the honest attempt ofour elected officials to make student government a thing of in-tegrity and responsibility. The burden is finally placed on studentsbeing able to legislate their own desires. The structure is suffici-ently binding to make it work.

On Monday, Nov. 10, fifty-four people, including Dr. RalphAbernathy of the SouthernChristian Leadership Confer-ence, were arrested while at-tempting to march in the fifthweek of protest concerning theSt. Joseph's Hospital Strike andthe city school situation.

The arrests were the resultof a confrontation between Cityof Memphis police and the lead-ers of the protests. Chief of Po-lice Holloman had declared theday before that the march couldnot be held after 4 p.m. onMonday afternoon. His reasonwas that the march would causea traffic tie-up.

Organizers of the march de-clared that the protest had beenplanned for four o'clock be-cause Reverend Abernathywould not arrive in Memphisuntil 3:45 p.m. to lead themarch. They stated that themarch had been planned well inadvance and would not be calledoff.

HOLLOMAN ANNOUNCEDthat "all necessary force"would be used by the police inorder to insure that the marchwould not be held.

Prior to the march a rallywas held in Clayborn TempleC.M.E. Church. During the ral-ly, repeated instructions weregiven to potential marchers asto what they should do if thepolice attempted to stop themarch. Marchers were told thatleaders expected Mr. Hollomanto be true to his word. Theystated that the remainder of themarchers should return to theTemple for further instructionsafter the arrests were made.

At 4:15 p.m., IReverend Aber-nathy arrived at Clayborn Tem-ple. He spoke approximatelyten minutes, ending with, "Theinvitation I received asked meto speak at City Hall - not atClayborn Temple. Let us marchto City Hall despite the barriersthrown up by this sick city."

Magazine, Inc.)From A Novella By

Eldridge CleaverPat Moore's shop was up-

stairs, over the Club Alabam.I wanted my hair gassed, soChester took me to Pat Moore's,complaining every step of theway that I was a fool. I wantedto please Lupe. I was 17, Lupewas 26 - a woman over theflip little girls I'd been catch-ing up till her. I wanted to im-press her with how slick a catI was.

Pat Moore sat me in the bar-ber's chair and draped a sheetover my shoulders, like a KKKman without his hood. Then hestarted greasing me down,spreading a thick gooey muckover my skin along the hair-line, then rubbing it into myscalp to protect the flesh fromthe violent action of the hair-straightening chemicals he wasabout to apply.

"If it gets too hot and burnsmore than you can stand, jus'hollar," Pat said. Taking a rub-ber spatula, he began slappingthe gas onto my head in big

gooey lumps, like a womanslapping lard into a hot skillet.Taking a comb, he slowlyworked the gas into my hair,inserting the comb at the frontof my head and pulling itstraight back along the curveof my skull to the end of myhair at the base of my neck.

SOON THE COMB was run-ning through my hair withoutany opposition from the kinks.In a moment every last kinkhad been murdered outright,and each strand of my hair wasstretched out on my head likean elongated corpse on a bar-room floor. "You be lookinglike 'Rudolph Valentino in aminute," Pat said. The shit wasbeginning to burn my skull, butI didn't say anything. I wantedto leave it in as long as I could,because I had been schooled tothe fact that, up to a certaincrucial point, the longer youleft the gas in, the straighteryour hair became. If you left itin beyond that crucial point,then the acids and -lye in thegas would eat all the hair offyour head, would eat all theskin off, in fact, theoretically,it could eat your whole headoff, bone and all.

"O.K., Pat," I said, boltingfrom the chair at last. "Getthis shit out quick, man." Patled me to the sink and bent myhead over it. Using a little greenhose with a spray nozzle at-tached to it, he rinsed andwashed and rinsed my headuntil every last trace of the gaswas washed away, leaving acrop of wierd - looking hairstanding all over my head.(Looking back, these strands ofhair impress me as the perfectmetaphor for the anarchy ex-isting among so-called Negroes

-in America. Each strand was astranger to the other; eachstood alone, resembling a mobrather than an organized mass.Each strand seemed to bestumbling around blindly, seek-ing its true identity, seeing no-thing of itself in the strandsaround it.)

Pat said, "Now how do youwant to wear it, my man? Wantme to fingerwave it or set it inthe pachuco style with a duck-tail in the back?

"Stick fingerwaves to me,baby," I said. And Pat went towork. When he finished, I hada do just like Nat King Cole.Had I chosen the pachuco, I'd

be looking like Sammy DavisJr.

I COULD HARDLY WAIT toget back to Rose Hill to seeLupe that night. I went homeand took a bath, careful not towet my hair or move my headtoo violently for fear of shak-ing out the waves. When I metLupe that night, under theclothesline next to Francis' padat the end of the row of apart-ments in the Projects, she saidin her Mexican accent: "Eeeek!What happened to your hair?"She led me out of the darknessinto a patch of light cast bythe street light up at the top ofthe hill. "What did you do toyour hair?" she asked in a mosthorrified tone. "You've ruinedit!" she said, and tried to touchmy hair. I knew that if shetouched it she would knock thewaves out. Gasses are for look-ing at, not for touching! "No!"I cautioned her, ""don't touchit or you'll mess it up." "You'recrazy, Leroy!" she said. "Idon't like your hair that way.I like it fuzzy like it was!"

Then, crying, she wrenchedherself violently from my armsand ran into her house.

tives met the marchers at thecorner of Hernando and Linden,informing them that marchingfurther would occasion their ar-rest. Abernathy and fifty-threeothers marched forward, werearrested, and, transported bybus to the county jail.

MARCHERS WERE stillpouring from the church andlining up when parade mar-shalls began to try to herd thecrowd back into the Temple.The swiftness of police actionstartled those pouring out tomarch.

Reverend Smith stood up ina truck bed, attempting to in-form the marchers of the eventsa block ahead. It was imposs-ible to hear him over the noiseof the crowd.

Sweet Willi e Wine Watsonwalked through the crowd ask-ing for quiet and a return to thechurch. He finally asked peopleto sit down in the street. The,sit-down did not quiet thecrowd. "I came here to march,not to sit in the street." Manywere up and moving towardLinden.

Police waited until marcherscrossed Linden to take action.Marchers ran toward the barri-cade - some throwing what-ever they could pick up off thestreet. The po li ce helicoptermoved in, dropping gas andsmoke bombs into the crowd.Police moved in to disperse thecrowd. A few shots could beheard.

AT THE DROPPING of thegas, marchers fled down theadjoining streets. The battlewith police continued for hourswith marchers running at thebarricades and police forcingthem back to Linden.

Inside the church plans weremade for a supportive marchthe next morning.

On Tuesday, November 11,participants met at 10 a.m.at Clayborn Temple for a rallyprior to the scheduled march.Marchers were informed thatthey were to march six abreastand to "keep cool even if whiteygot hot."

No sane man would sendkids with broomsticks to fightcops with nightsticks and guns.Goldsmith's windows are notwhere the Revolution is at. TheRevolution is right here in theghetto where you know the ter-ritory better than whitey andnot on Main Street." He wouldbe walking alongside the marchto see that none of that juvenilestupidity went on.

MARCHERS LINED up at:11:30 a.m. with repeated admo-nitions broadcasted to "step outof the ranks if you can not re-main non-violent." Abernathyspoke over the loud-speaker sys-tem asking that there again be,a peaceful, non-violent m a r c hin Memphis.

Many carried books and woretoothbrushes around their necksto illustrate their willingness togo the jail if need be to backtheir cause. A light shower didlittle to daunt the marchers'spirit.

Dr. Abernathy, Jerry Wu r f,head of the American Federa-tion of State, County, and Mu-nicipal Employees - AFL-CIOand local leaders came to thehead of the marchers; and themarch began. The protesterscontinued without incident downHernando to Linden to MainStreet and City Hall.

At City Hall the invocationwas given by Father Martin ofSt. Patrick's Catholic Church.Reverend H. Ralph Jacksontold the people that they wereblack and together, and thattheir only leaders were thosewho would realize where theblack people were going andget out there with them.

Jerry Wurf stated that theunion' would stand behind thestruggle in Memphis in thesearch for a common decencyfor all mankind.

R e verend Abernathy pro-claimed his willingness to con-tinue the fight in Memphis ayear and seven months after hislast visit to the city. "Memphisremains a sick city unwilling torealize the necessity for truthand justice."

Stark Realities PortrayedIn Wexler's 'Medium Cool'

By Johnny RoneMedium Cool, the current at-

traction at the Memphiantheatre, centers around the cityof Chicago during the summerof 1968, when the eyes of theworld were focused on one ofthe most frightening debaclesof the. century, the DemocraticNational Convention.

The film mixes stark realitywith theatricality, using bothactors and non-professionals totell a story about a televisioncameraman (R ob e r t Forster)who goes about his businessphotographing auto accidents,fires, and other daily news. Hechooses not to think too deeplyabout his sordid, sometimes hor-rifying subject matter, but seeshimself as merely doing a job-never getting involved-even ifit means photographs first andcalling the ambulance after-wards.

BUT SLOWLY he finds him-self becoming confronted withthe harsh reality around him.After doing a human intereststory on a black man who found$10,000 on the floor of his taxiand turned it in, John is facedwith an even greater story ofhuman interest - the problemsof life in the ghetto section ofChicago, the seething hatewhich is replacing the apatheticfeeling of helplessness.

A ROMANCE develops be-tween John and Eileen (VernaBloom), a woman living withher son in the AppalachianGhetto section of the city.Through his relationship with

this woman, he is able to ap-proach his assignment of cover-ing the Democratic Conventionwith a greater understanding ofreality and of the moral respon-sibilities he has as a humanbeing.

Their story reaches its climaxand tragic conclusion during theviolent confrontation b e t w e endemonstrators and N a t i on a 1Guardsmen. This is a powerfulsequence which was actuallyfilmed during the height of thestreet battle, making MediumCool probably the only non-documentary feature which in-cludes actual footage of thedemonstrations.

MEDIUM COOL MARKS thedirectorial debut of HaskellWexler, one of the sceen's mostdistinguished cinematographers,and winner of an AcademyAward for Who's Afraid of Vir-ginia Woolf? He conceived theproject, wrote the screenplay,and photographed it. Wexlerhimself was teargassed oncewhen a National Guardsmanturned and fired a cannister at

him as he was surrounded byrioters while filming. His cam-era operator grabbed the cam-era and continued shooting thescene.

NOT ONLY did Wexler em-ploy a very mobile camera infilming his individual scenes,but since most of the action anddrama takes place in Chicago,he staged sequences in suchreal-life settings as the Inter-national Amphitheatre, G r a tPark, ghetto homes and homesof black militants.

THIS-IS a tremendously pow-erful film in its realism. Theplotting and script of the fiction-al segment is not always of thesame caliber as the documen-tary sections, unfortunately.However, at those forcefulmoments when you realize thatall that technicolor blood yousee flowing so freely during thepolice riot is real, you are tooemotionally. caught up in theactual events to care about thedefects of the fiction. MediumCool is an honest effort and isone of the films to see this year.

zier Jelke Science Center.As the son of William Rothen-

stein, a well known Englishpainter and teacher, he grew upin a family centrally interestedin art and in daily contact withleading exponents of the artsand culture.

After taking his M.A. at Ox-ford, Rothenstein accepted aninvitation to lecture in Americaat the University of Kentuckyand at the University of Pitts-burgh. On this first stay inAmerica during 1928-29, he gotfirst-hand acquaintance withAmerican painters; an interestthat has continued throughoutthe years. A result of this in-terest and one of Sir John Roth-enstein's most effective contri-butions was the arrangement ofa large retrospective show ofAmerican painting in the TateGallery in 1946. This was thefirst time a comprehensiveshow of American painters fromthe eighteenth century down tocontemporaries of the day hadoccurred in England.

The same concept whichbrought the best of Americanpainting to England evidenceditself in many activities of theTate Gallery during the yearsSir John was director. The TateGallery became the liveliestmodern museum of art and thecenter of public attention notusually directed at museums.

While Sir John Rothensteinhas known painters, collectors,and museum directors allaround the world, his scholar-

ship has been largely centeredin English art. He has writtena comprehensive work on Eng-lish painters and several spe-cial studies such as on the pre-Raphaelites, or on individuals,including Augustus John, Con-der, Sickert, Paul Nash and, ofcourse, Turner, whom Rothen-stein believes is "the greatestpainter produced by the Eng-lish-speaking peoples."

Sir John Rothenstein is cur-rently visiting professor at Ag-nes Scott College, Decatur,Georgia.

The Southwestern footballteam clinched a tie for secondplace in the College AthleticConference last Saturday inLexington, Va. against Wash-ington & Lee University. Un-fortunately, it was a loss thatclinched the tie,

For most of the game, South-western played catch-up ball.The 'Cats recovered from a 24-6deficit midway through thethird quarter, to make it 24-19

.with 8:26 remaining in thegame, and drove to the General20 before losing the ball ondowns, with 1:17 showing onthe clock.

THE FIRST SERIES ofdowns indicated that the gamewould be decided in the air. Onthe first play from scrimmage,Robert Carter found right endRandall Mullins open in theflat, and Mullins rambled 27yards to the W & L 39. Bothteams had difficulty adjustingto the strong wind, as Carter,throwing into it in the first andthird periods, threw three con-secutive times without success.

Toward the end of the firstperiod, Washington & Leestruck for ten points in two-and-a-half minutes. After stop-ping the Lynx on their own 13,the Generals took over on theLynx 41, following a short punt.QB Chuck Kuhn moved themto the Southwestern 21, whereon fourth-and-nine, John Baiz-ley booted a wind-aided 38-yardfield goal to open the scoringwith 2:58 left in the quarter.

to the end zone. Baizley's PATmade it 10-0, as the periodended.

In the second quarter, thewind both aided and hurt theLynx. In the second svties ofdowns, Ralph Allen eluded theGeneral secondary, and Carterfound him for a beautiful 64-yard scoring strike. Mullins'PAT try hit the upright bar,for his first miss of the season,and with 11:39 left before inter-mission, SW trailed, 10-6. Justbefore the half ended, Carteraimed for Todd Robbins, whowas all alone deep in Generalterritory, but the wind carriedhis pass just out of reach.

W & L BEGAN both of theirsecond half drives deep in Lynxterritory. The first took threeplays, covering 36 yards, all ona Kuhn-Bruce Green TD pass.Moments later, the Generalscovered 37 yards in eight plays,with Green scoring again tomake it 24-6.

Thirty seconds later, just be-fore the third period ended, theCats struck, moving sixty yards

for Gentlemen& Their Sons

in three plays. Herman Morriscovered the last eight on asweep around right end. Earlyin the final quarter, W & Lmoved to the Lynx 23, but thedefense held on downs. Carter,given excellent protection bythe SW offensive line, hit threein a row to move the Lynx tothe General 18, but the drivestalled here. W & L took over,but fumbled on the first playfrom -scrimmage, and MikeSadler recovered. Sides drovein from the one with 8:26 leftto make it 24-19.
