A matter of life
by Gordon Richardson
Unlike Paul Gauguin, your
average computer is not
about to run off to the South
Sea Islands to paint like
nesses of sun-kissed maidens.
And yet, in a way, por
trait-painting is a computer’s
thing. Financial portraits,
that is—a development of
significant benefit to the in
surance counsellor and his client.
Now, thanks to our talented computers, we can draw
financial portraits faster and more precisely than ever
before. In outline, it works this way. Client furnishes
counsellor with basic financial information. This is fed
into the computer which, in turn, relates client’s insur
ance to his entire financial situation.
The effect of this is to give you a full scale canvas of
how well your Social Security, your company benefits,
and your other assets would serve in the event of retire
ment. Or, how they wouldn’t serve and what might you
do to protect yourself.
At Provident Mutual Life, we call this Electronic
Personal Planning, and, at your convenience. I’ll be
happy to arrange a portrait sitting for you. If nothing
more, it’ll be an interesting experience. No obligation
whatsoever. Just contact me at 707 University Drive -
Or call' 846-7027.

IT'S BAREBACKED RIDING all right, but not in the Lady
Godiva tradition for this Columbia, S. C., rider. Actually,
the girl is wearing a halter blouse and is riding a horse
without a saddle. That is being barebacked, but it’s not so
interesting as it might appear. (AP Wirephoto)
SAIGON <A>) — North Vietnam
ese forces using Soviet-built
tanks and heavy weapons Thurs
day launched major attacks
against South Vietnamese defend
ers on four sides of Quang Tri
City in renewed assaults below
the demilitarized zone.
Brig. Gen. Vu Van Giai, com
mander of the South Vietnamese
3rd Infantry Division defending
Quang Tri province, termed the
situation “extremely critical.”
Senior U.S. advisers from Da
Nang rushed to the battle area
in helicopters.
South Vietnamese casualties
were said to range from light
to moderate.
Attacks also were launched on
other fronts, including the district
towns of Bong Son on South Viet
nam’s central coast and Dau
Tieng, north of Saigon. At the
provincial capital of An Ix>c, also
north of Saigon, 10 South Viet
namese were reported killed and
65 wounded in a 1,500 round ar
tillery barrage.
Quang Tri city, South Viet
nam’s northernmost provincial
capital, is 19 miles below the de
militarized zone, and was among
the earliest targets of the 29-
day-old enemy offensive.
U.S. 7th Fleet destroyers were
called in to aid the South Viet
namese from offshore.
Enemy forces were reported as
close as three miles southwest
of the city, where the South Viet
namese 2nd Infantry Regiment
was locked in heavy battle with
strong enemy forces. South Viet
namese marines were fighting
North Vietnamese troops less
than five miles southeast of the
city. Other attacks were under
way six miles north and west of
the city.
At least one enemy tank was
reported destroyed.
The Quang Tri combat base, 2%
miles northwest of the city, was
under heavy shelling attack, but
only one round hit the city it
self.
Other bases farther from Quang
Tri City were hit with heavy bar
rages of more than 600 rounds
of 130 mm artillery, which has
a range of 17 miles.
In the central highlands, South
Korean troops cleared the enemy
from a vital pass, opening a pos
sible convoy route to the imper
iled highland cities.
But behind the Koreans, North
Vietnamese swarmed out of the
hills into coastal Binh Dinh Prov
ince. They seized a base, pushed
into three populous districts and
opened up with rocket and mor
tar fire on Bong Son, a district
headquarters where an attack has
long been expected.
At the Pentagon in Washing
ton:
—Sources said the United
States is preparing to send 36
more F4 fighter-bombers to
Southeast Asia to strengthen the
already heavy U.S. air power
massed against the North Viet
namese offensive.
—Spokesman Jerry W. Fried-
heim said South Vietnamese
forces have “acquitted themselves
very well” so far in the campaign.
The attacks on Quang Tri were
described as being in an arc

Jewish group attacks Archie Bunker
WASHINGTON <A>) _ Already
cuffed by the Teamsters Union,
television’s Archie Bunker has
collected some new lumps from
the American Jewish Congress.
The CBS television series “All
in the Family,” in which Archie
Bunker is blue-collar worker who
makes racial and ethnic slurs, is
“creating a new freedom to be of
fensive,” says Rabbi J. Lelyveld,
president of AJC.
The rabbi said a major sin of
the television show is that “it is
teaching our children disrespect.”
He said his own children have
come home from junior high
school “with Polack jokes that
have been told to them by their
teachers.”
“There is no such thing as a
harmless bigot any more than
there is such a thing as a friendly
cancer or a benign drug pusher
or a lovable murderer or rapist,”
Rabbie Lelyveld said Monday in
the organization’s official publica
tion “Congress bi-Weekly.”
“When policemen are ‘pigs’ they
are. fair game for the slaughter,”
Rabbie Lelyveld said. “When Po-
lacks are stupid, subhuman be
ings, when kikes are shrewd and
dagos or wops are sly and mur
derous, it is only one step from
the epithet to contempt, and an
other step to discrimination and
another step to persecution and
the final step to the gas cham
ber and systematic extermina
tion.”
Earlier this month, a Team
sters Union publication said work
ers resent the image presented
by “All in the Family.”
“For some reason the writers
of those shows decided the av
erage worker is a dingbat—fat,
more than a little dumb, a com
mitted racist and most of all, very
comical,” the union said in its
publication, “Focus.”
“There are a lot of workers
who are thin, think everyone de
serves a truly equal opportunity,
are sincerely compassionate and
essentially intelligent,” the Team
sters’ publication said.

Two A&M geology researchers
have received a $25,000 contract
from the Department of Defense’s
Advanced Project Agency for
rock studies.
Dr. Melvin Friedman, geology
professor, and Dr. G. H. Alani,
research associate at the Center
for Tectonophysics, are principal
investigators for the project en
titled “Investigation of the Rela
tions Between Residual Strains,
Fabric and Ultrasonic Attenua
tion and. Velocity in Rocks.”
The contract is administered
through the U. S. Bureau of
Mines.
“Results of the research will
be of interest to engineers, geol
ogists and geophysicists dealing
with mining, tunneling, rapid ex
cavation and the detection of in
trinsic factors that control rock
fracture,” Dr. Friedman said.
