They left the older bishops, such as Archbishop Philip Hanan of New Orleans and Auxiliary Bishop Patrick Ah ern of New York, isolated in their defense of nuclear de terrence and the possible use of nuclear weapons. Tuesday, the bishops had to deal with nearly 400 re maining amendments to the pastoral letter, “The Chal lenge of Peace: God’s Promise and Our Response,” that almost 280 bishops have prop osed. A final vote was ex pected later that day. To pass, the 44,000-word document needs the support of 192 of the 288 active bishops. Monday’s votes sug gests that the “peace bishops” will have little trouble winning the final vote. What was expected to be the major battle Monday turned out to be a rout. The bishops overwhelm ingly restored the use of the word “halt” to the document — instead of “curb” — in their support for “immediate, bila teral, verifiable agreements” to end testing, production and deployment of new nuclear weapons systems. Chemist (continued from page 1) “The emotional situation is too critical to let the situation go on indefinitely,” O’Connor says. Natowitz says the review be gan last November as the second in a series of chemistry depart ment evaluations. Last year, Chemistry 103 and 104 were evaluated. Next year, the orga nic chemistry program will be evaluated. The purpose of the evalua tions is to find the strengths and weaknesses of the chemistry programs, and to provide an opportunity for the committee members to make suggestions, Natowitz says. O’Connor says his staff was not allowed any representation in the committee. But Natowitz says O’Connor worked closely with him, and suggested faculty members for the committee. He says O’Connor also spoke to the committee. The committee members were chosen by Nato witz. Natowitz says he cannot stop O’Connor from submitting his resignation, and that if he does receive it, he will not accept it. He says he has received calls from concerned students, and that the situation has been “blown out of proportion.” He added that he thinks O’Connor is “looking for a con frontation.” Deputy Corps Commander Brian Terrell says there are 228 freshmen cadets who are enrol led in chemistry 102, and that many of them are writing letters to the chemistry department in j support of O’Connor and the first year chemistry program.
