However, it will probably rise again next year since the AS Executive Council Monday selected a new coordinator for the project, Dede Littin, junior English major. Miss littin told the council no classes are now meeting which are related to the Experimental College. She said both Mike Goodman and Cathy Iliff, who started the project, are (Continued on page I) Gammaae Theologian raps extremism Photo by T o n y Raoo D rugs dilemma changes colors By AL SHIYA Ed. Note: This is the first of a five-part series dealing with drugs and their use in the local area. While^shock-figures concerning narfcotics use on uni­ versity campuses are as free as running water, local law enforcers close to the drug problem view the campus situation with tamer estimates, though the number of students introduced to drugs is apparently increasing. Two years ago the State Press quoted Campus Secur­ ity Director John Duffy to the effect that he knew about 20 people who were regular users of drugs. a Today Tempe police officers have files containing several hundred names, supplied by city, state and federal officers, of people arrested on narcotics charges since 1964 who frequent the Tempe area. ' " The magnitude of the local narcotics situation hgg not declined in the last two years, but it has changed colors.

By DON PODESTA “He is defended because he never harmed a fly.” Whereby the judge responded, “The fly he never hanned carried the plague to millions.” This allusion to Dostoevsky was quoted by Dr. Franklin H. Littel in his speech, “Extrem­ ism: Threat to America” Mon­ day night in the Law building. Dr. Littel, a theology profes­ sor, lecturer, and president of Iowa Wesleyan College, warn­ ed that extremism should be dealt with now, using a mini­ mum of' violence, rather than later when it might be too late. Dr. Little opened his talk surprisingly by challenging a member of the audience who was taping the lecture. He ex­ plained that once a lecture of bis had been taped by a.xpetQ* her of the John Birch Society and then spliced to change the context. Advocating a strong stand for moderates, Dr. litte l said, “The task is to strengthen the middle ground. Honest conservatives have more in common with honest liberals than with fa­ scists and honest liberals have more In common with honest conservatives than with com­ munists.” He said that in the 30s selfstyled liberals meshed with communists a n d communism became entrenched in Ameri­ ca. He warned that today’s “socalled conservatives” were doinjgthe same by failing to draw the line at fascism. Dr. Littel proposes a 15 point method of testing for organiza­ tions that call themselves par­ ties but which are in fact totali­ tarian conspiracies. Some of the signs, he indicat­ ed, are anti-semitism, vague use of religious symbols, at­ tempts to control the mass me­ dia, and over-emphasis of the police and military. “Totalitarianism represents ASU 7, GCC 2 S Season Record: 32-7 # the most serious threat to Chris­ tianity since the rise of Islam,” he said. In a question and answer pe­ riod Dr. Littel was asked if he considered the Students for a Democratic Society a conspir­ acy. He answered that the SDS was not an organized conspir­ acy but a spontaneous move­ ment, adding that SDS had made a mistake in opening its doors to all because some of the chapters have turned to a deliberate revolutionary ideolo­ gy with the influx of members of other organizations. Another member of the audi­ ence claimed Dr. Littel’s facts were false and insisted he knew some of the people Dr. Littel had mentioned and argued that he was wrong. In an informal session after­ wards, Dr. Littel said, “ I be­ lieve that studente should have a vote in affairs that govern them. People come to a univer­ sity on a contractual basis, as people, and should be treated as such.” He explained that in loco pa­ rentis (the university acting as parent) goes back to an era when -universities were Protestafit monasteries and students were novices needing the spiri­ tual guidance of elder brothers.

The University Civil Rights Board met last week with Ath­ letic Director Clyde Smith to discuss the alleged disruption by an athlete of a talk by an anti­ war speaker on the Mall. Brian Moore, graduate in po­ litical science, said the CRB requested the meeting for two reasons: they felt a person’s in­ dividual freedom may have been infringed, and the action may have been provoked by the speaker’s skin color. “We’re all aware that a prob­ A drawing for a tape record­ lem exists between the races,” er will be open to all who order Moore said. “If the white com­ munity does not conduct the University class rings. proper hearings and necessary The official ring will be dis­ procedures on the matter, then played on the Mall near Danforth Chaoel from 8:30 a.m. t o » I think the black man is justified in turning his back to our sys­ 3 p.m_today.tem .” A $2 deoosit will be needed Smith replied there was no to order the rings, which will be delivered before gradua­ reason for the meeting because the athlete had not been charged tion.

Rick Poad, a member of the Army Special Forces, was w ith his unit training Vietnamese Montagnards to fight and defend themselves from the Viet Cong. “We got in there and didn’t have much time for training; the Viet Cong hit us before we had time for that,” Poad said. Rick put his rifle down a few years ago and started training himself rather than the Montagnards. Now Poad is a senior at ASU, one of nearly 1,800 veterans enrolled here this semester. Poad, president of the ASU Vets’ Club, believes there are definite advantages in coming to college after completing military service, be­ sides the obvious one — not having to worry about the draft. * Service-to-college has benefits setbacks , “I worked for about a year and a half after I got out of high school, because I didn’t want to go to college,” Poad said. It didn’t take long before Poad knew he apparently wasn’t going anywhere or doing anything vrith his life, so the 27-year-old Tempe resi­ dent joined the service “to get it out of the way.” And after spending three years with the Special Forces he knew that he didn’t want to make a career of that, so he applied for college.
