UH President Hoffman expects tense year
By The Associated Press
One of the problems in cases of
student demonstrations at the
University of Houston, says the
president, Dr. Philip Hoffman,
was the presence of persons not
enrolled.
He is apprehensive about more
trouble as the school opens for
another term.
In a question and answer inter
view, Hoffman states his views
and what the school plans to do.
Q) Dr. Hoffman, since March
1969, there have been four Uni
versity of Houston incidents. One
caused damage to the Student
Union Center and 14 arrests.
Another was a protest against
military recruiters. In another,
75 or so protested removal of
trees and another anti-war dem
onstration occurred in which there
was minor damage and a brief
threat to take over the admini-
stration building but no arrests.
Can you say how much non-stu
dent participation was involved?
1970
A) It’s difficult to be complete
ly definitive about this. At no
TOYOTA
time was there more than a mi
nority. I would say that in the

case of the trees, no more than
a fourth to a third were non
students. And at all times in each
of these incidents there were non-
students coming and going. In
no time were they in the majority.
Q) Was the non-student influ
ence a major factor?
A) It certainly was a factor.
In the case of the 14 persons ar
rested, I think three of those
were non-students. But the key
leaders were students. To what
extent they were being influenc
ed is difficult to determine.
Q) Would these incidents have
occurred if non-students had not
been there?
A) There would have been in
cidents. Probably not as marked
in their ramifications. I might
remark that although these things
were important to us at the
time, in retrospect, when you com
pare them to things which have
gone on all over the country, they
were minor.
Q) In other campus disturb
ances, administrators have seemed
to divide into two camps. One
lets the incident run its course,
the other calls in the police at
once. Where do you stand?
A) I would like to think that
I belong to the group that be
lieves in fairness and firmness.
I believe I’m in the firm camp,
but I also don’t believe in acting
in a spirit of premature action
or anything that would be harsh
or repressive in character. I be
lieve the right of peaceful dis
sent is a right that must be sup
ported and protected. But when
the demonstration of activity as
sumes proportions which make it
impossible for the university to
operate under fairly normal con-
Morgan chosen
journal editor
Dr. Page Morgan, plant sci
ences professor at Texas A&M
University, has been named a
member of the editorial board
for Plant Physiology, journal of
the American Society of Plant
Physiologists.
Morgan’s five-year term on the
international publication begins
Jan. 1. The appointment was an
nounced at the society’s annual
meeting at Indiana University.
Operation of the journal is
directed by three editors and an
editor-in-chief.
ditions ... or deprives other stu
dents or faculty of their right to
pursue their normal pursuits, then
it is a disruption.
Q) At what time do you think
it would be necessary to bring in
outside authorities?
A) At the point when it’s im
possible for your own security
force to handle it. This is a
matter of judgment.
Q) Dr. Hoffman, how much do
you rely on student or faculty to
help you resolve incidents like
this or to chart policy?
A) We try to have very close
communications with student and
faculty, not only in moments of
crisis but even more important in
moments of relative calm.
Q) What enrollment do you
expect ?
A) Between 25,000 and 25,600.
Q) What percentage of that
will be Afro-American?
A) We’ve had about 800. I
would expect slightly more than
that.
Rocket propellants
conference to be held
Texas A&M will host a three-
day conference this fall for the
nation’s leaders in development
of solid rocket propellants.
Participants in the Nov. 10-12
meeting are members of a Joint
Army - Navy - NASA - Air Force
Committee which functione as a
working group to advance the
state of the art in solid propel
lant structural integrity analy
sis.
The group’s chairman, Don
Saylak, is on leave of absence
from the Air Force to study for
a Ph.D. degree in materials
science at Texas A&M.
Saylak said the group includes
representatives from industry
and universities, as well as from
the military and space agency.
Approximately 75 men are ex
pected to attend the meeting.
The group was formed to pro
vide coordination and coopera
tion between government agen
cies working on solid propellants
and to resolve technical problems
of immediate concern, Saylak ex
plained.

Q) A Negro group made 10
demands last year. These in
cluded establishment of an Afro-
American studies department,
hiring a Negro coach, and a de
mand that 35 per cent of the
freshman class this fall be Negro.
Now 800 out of 25,000 . . .
A) Between 3 and 4 per cent.
Q) ... is between 3 and 4
per cent. What response to these
demands have been made and
what’s been the reaction from
that group?
A) We made it clear immedi
ately that the university is open
to all persons who could qualify
for admission and from our point
of view it seemed highly unlikely
there could be this kind of a
jump from 3 or 4 per cent then
to 35 per cent. The enrollment
of blacks has not proceeded in
the volume they hoped nor could
it really without completely aban
doning all of our admission re
quirements.
Q) Are admission requirement
tests or records established in
high school or both?
A) This is a combination of
high school grades and grades
on the scholastic aptitude test.
Q) Do you plan or have you
already established an Afro-
American studies department?
A) We’re bringing in this fall
Dr. Robert A. Smithey to head
up this program. It’s - been in
operation all through last year
. . . We’ve been seeking a well-
qualified black man. Dr. Smithey
we think will do an excellent job
as the new director.
Q) How about the demand for
a black coach? Has this been
met?
A) It has. We had been seeki
a black coach for a number i
months prior to this demand.!,I
did find him last spring. Hei
Elmer Redd who was coach,
Lufkin Dunbar where he had,
tremendous record.
Q) Do you regard the univerj
sity as the proper stage forr
times rather violent prote
against a national policy?
A) No, I don’t. These are pm
lems which are problems of i
ciety in general. The univers
ties can’t pull us out of Vietnail
or solve pollution or any of ths
other things.
Q) What is the outlook fort
coming scholastic year?
A) I would say it’s an
look of watchful and concen
waiting.
