THE BATTALION
College Station, Texas Thursday, October 29, 1970
CADET SLOUCH
by Jim Earle
“See, it’s right around the comer! Aren’t you glad we
didn’t take them down?”
I LISTEN UPl
Lmmm th& bait forum ■■■■■■»
Elditor:
In reply to the letter of the
three gentlemen who accused me
of being narrow-minded, how
could they be so “narrow-minded”
and accuse me of such ? Their
letter was one of fine points, ex
pressed their opinion of the mat
ter real well, and one that I could
appreciate. I do not want to use
this Listen-up column as a bat
tleground for student views. But
student opinions are like noses,
everyone has one.
My opinion, expressed in my
letter, was how I felt about this
particular matter and the letter
of the three gentlemen (Tim
Dunn, Tom Hall, and James Par
sons) was how they felt. Well
and good, more power to them. I
felt my way and because I did
they falsely accused me of being
narrow-minded. .It’s like I said
before, everyone has an opinion
and because you may or may not
agree with another, it doesn’t
make the other person or party
to be narrow-minded.
I just can’t see how anyone can
accuse me of being narrow-mind
ed because of one letter. So please
brothers, peace!!
Roland Davie ’71
We’re glad you don’t want to
use Listen Up as a battleground,
because neither do we. This, then
is notice to all our fans that
personal battles are forbidden
within our letters columns.—Eld.

Sex is selling for UH psychol
ogy professor Dr. James L. Mc-
Cary.
Over 100,000 copies of his book
“Human Sexuality” have been
sold. McCary teaches a course
called Human Sexuality to more
than 1,000 students a semester at
UH,
Many literary experts acclaim
“Human Sexuality” as one of the
leading marriage manuals. It
has been adopted as a textbook
by 200 colleges and universities.
McCary and a coauthor also
have written a condensed version
of the Bible cutting the word
count of the King James version
65 per cent. “Nothing has been
left out,” McCary said.
He is currently working on
“Human Sex: Its Meaning and
Functions.” It was designed and
written as a high school text, the
first on the subject.

H. Ross Perot will speak at
the Tech Country Club Dinner
Friday night.
The Dallas billionaire and phi
lanthropist, noted for his efforts
to aid prisoners of war in North
Vietnam, formed Electronic Data
Systems in 1962. From an initial
investment of $1000, he now
owns $1,287,126,000 worth of
stock in the company.
In spite of his billion, Perot’s
life style is modest. His wife and
four children live in a comforta
ble, but not extravagant home
and drive a 1965 Lincoln Conti
nental and a 1959 Ford station
wagon.
He intends to leave his chil
dren very little money so they
can have, a chance to make their
own. He wants to help solve
America’s problems.

dents, called for revolutionary
politics—putting theory into
practice — in fighting the class
struggle in America.
“Give freedom to the people or
the country’s going to be lev
eled,” Dixon said.
He described the U.S. govern
ment as “the number one world
enemy.” Dixon charged the gov
ernment with dealing in ab
stracts and political rhetoric,
where its actions were not in the
best interest of the people but
rather for the benefit of a select
ed few.
When questioned as to what
type of government would be in
itiated after a successful revolu
tion, Dixon said, “a Yankee Doo
dle socialism; people will revolu
tionize their minds—each one ac
cording to his needs.”

Someone expressed concern

A forum on abortion at Wash
ington State boiled down to
rights of the fetus versus rights
of the mother.
Proponents of abortion said
that if the fetus has as much
right as the mother, then “why
not try to save all the sperms
and eggs?”
Representatives from Women’s
Lib, Zero Population Growth and
Committee for Abortion Reform
also emphasized that anti-abor
tion laws are sexually discrimi
nating to American women. Beth
Crumb said, “Women are forced
to carry unwanted babies because
laws permit them no other out
let.”
Opponents of abortion realize
reform is necessary for protect
ing women, but they feel the an
swer is not in destroying the
fetus.
