CADET SLOUCH
by Jim Earle
From other campuses
By James R. Jackson
Hippies and cops will battle it
out at TU next Sunday in a game
of baseball. The game originiated
when students challenged campus
police to a slow-pitch softball con
test. Commenting on the game,
Assistant Police Chief Bill Purse
said, “It should be a lot of fun,
something to laugh about.”

“The draft feeds on two prin
ciple sources—ignorance of young
men not properly informed of
their rights in the Selective Serv
ice laws and complacency of those
accepting conscription as an un
challengeable power,” Jim Lig-
get, UH draft counselor, said. He
thinks the draft has almost no
chance of becoming illegal, “but
it can become inoperable.”
He adds, “If all men would ap
peal their 1-A (draftable) classi
fications and if the requests for
deferments became great, the Se
lective Service System would bog
down—it is not impossible to
fight the draft.”

terested in music, drugs and the
“ennobling sacrifice of self-en
forced poverty,” than in black
problems. Bond, a founder of the
Student Non-violent Coordinat
ing Commitee and the first black
member of the Georgia House of
Representatives, said there had
been a revolution in blacks’ think
ing about themselves.
“The presence of ROTC on
campus is not nearly so earth-
shaking as rats in the ghetto,”
Bond said.

At Sam Houston State, two
“cowboys” and two “hippies” are
leading a sort of peaceful co
existence. The four representa
tives of each stereotype have got
ten an apartment together and
are diligently tolerating each
other. Questioned, one of the hip
pies commented, “We do have
our problems, but we have an
understanding—-we go our way,
the ‘kickers’ their’s.”

A “bra test” may not get in
cluded in the Palm Beach County
school system if an attorney has
his way. Sylvan Burdick, the at
torney, claims the “bra test” is
an invasion of individual privacy.
Burdick maintains that girls
suspected of not wearing appro
priate undergarments are sum
moned before the school’s dean
for the test.
The dean asks the girl to jump
up and down, and if there is too
much “bounce,” the girl is sent
home to get a bra.

Mark Gerzon, author of “The
Whole World is Watching,” said
in a speech at UH, “The primary
purpose of a university is to
revolutionize people.”
Gerzon, a 21-year-old graduate
of Harvard, said that by the time
students are university age, they
are reaching the “revolutionary
creativity” stage. This, he said,
is the cause of the radical move
ment around the world today. He
said every radical action today is
trying to make youths question
acts. Gerzon sees this as healthy
and cited the rise of the Nazis
as a result of the 1930 German
students’ reluctance to question.
Gerzon gathered most of his
knowledge of youth by hitchhik
ing around the country. Before
arriving in Houston, he traveled
through Texas, stopping in Dallas
and College Station, to gain “a
feeling for the South.”
