The question, “Should sex ed
ucation courses be offered in the
Dallas Schools?” was posed to
250 Hillcrest students. Ninety-six
percent were in favor, with junior
high through high school the most
suggested age for instruction.
A prevalent reason among the
students for wanting sex instruc
tion was that “parents rarely tell
their children the whole truth
about sex.”
One young female interviewee
commented, “I don’t think it
should be brought into the school
because if kids want to know
about sex education, they should
ask their parents or friends.”
Dear Prudence . . . !
Another highschooler, with a
sly grin on his face and looking
like the local hustler, said, “I
think it shouldn’t be in the
schools. People will learn about
it anyway, and, besides, teach
ers couldn’t teach it.”

Joe Higgins, the TV sheriff fa
mous for his Dodge commercials,
spoke to the UH journalism class
recently.
He criticized newspapers, adults
over 35, and the judiciary system.
Higgins said, “I’m uptight with
the press today, especially news
papers.” He said he wants jour
nalism students to go out and tell
it like it is on both sides.
Higgins was glad to see the 18-
year-olds get the right to vote.
On the topic of marijuana, he
said, “The problem is not law
enforcement but in the judiciary.
Higgins is an honorary sheriff
in 104 counties. He is a real sher
iff in Harris County, Texas; and
in Selma and Madison Counties,
Alabama.
“You’re in a heap o’ trouble,
boy,” Higgins said to a student
that asked, “When the Dodge
commercials get old . . .?”

On Oct. 31, regional demonstra
tions will be held all over the
United States to protest contin
uing U.S. involvement in the war
in Southeast Asia. A massive
demonstration in Austin will be
the focus of the Texas antiwar
movement. A permit for the
march has been obtained.
The march will begin at 1 p.m.
at the West Mall of the Univer
sity of Texas and end with a
rally at the State Capitol. Groups
from most Texas colleges are
expected to attend.

Pat Canavan, a long-haired
graduate of Harvard, will not be
teaching at SMU anymore. It
seems his rather unorthodox views
have run up against a brick wall
of opposition.
It seems that a group of Dallas
businessmen did not care for what
Canavan was doing for the Busi
ness School.
Dr. H. Neill McFarland, SMU
vice president, indicated that Can
avan was brought to the campus
without “sufficient preparation”
being made for him. He added
that the usual hiring and inter
view procedures were not follow
ed and that few people knew about
Canavan before he came to SMU
to teach.

Gov. Preston Smith never got
to deliver his speech to a crowd
of 4,000 on the UH campus a
few days ago.
The governor left the stage
without speaking after listening
for a few minutes to a large
crowd of hecklers from the au
dience. A hostile group at the
front of the room kept shout
ing, “Free Lee Otis,” “What
about racism,” and “You have
the power to free Lee Otis.”
Thirty minutes before the
governor’s scheduled speech, a
rally was held on the front steps
of the UC to protest and call at
tention to the imprisonment of
Lee Otis Johnson.
Johnson, a former TSU stu
dent, was convicted last spring
and sentenced to 30 years in pris
on for passing a marijuana ci
garette to a police undercover
agent.
Other UH students afterwards
criticized the mob of hecklers as
hypocrites. Students who holler
“freedom of speech” and “police
brutality” were the same ones
. who heckled police and did not
allow Smith the right to be
heard.
