Hats off to
the B.S.U.
We of The Capitolist take this
opportunity to congratulate all
the members of the Black
Student Union upon the
apparent success of the Black
Arts Festival.
It was quite an enjoyable
week. The B.S.U. presented a
variety of activities ranging
from speakers to basketball to
workshop to art to plays and
dances to concert to fried
chicken. And for a good cause as
proceeds benefited the
organization's scholarship fund.
The events were fairly well
attended, and we think the
entire experience benefited the
Capitol Community.
Several individuals put an
abundance of time and effort
into the festival, including Evon
Golphin, Terrie Aycox, Mike
Jones, Steve Berry, Deloras
Garrison and others who bear
mention. They should all be
commended.

Letters

Soggy French Fries
To the Editor;
As I sat in the campus
cafeteria today contemplating a
recently purchased dish of
french fries, the disc jockey on
WZAP Radio expressed the hope
that her listeners were enjoying
what resembled the lunch they
were eating.
I can't begin to number the
times I've echanged a quarter
only to find a group of
half-baked, soggy, disgusting
french fries.
I can hardly believe the
culinary abilities of Servomation
employees can be so poor. How
long can the student body allow
such a deplorable situation to
exist? Doesn't anybody really
care about the shit we eat?
I've had enough !!

Collective Bargaining
In Last week's issue, we
printed a letter from Dr.. John
Antrim, who had objections to
the poll conducted by the
American Association of
University Professors regarding
collective bargaining.
Antrim said the poll was "not
official and was ignored by
many faculty members." In the
same vein, he said the questions
on the ballot "were so
structured as to skirt the real
issues which is 'does or doesn't
the faculty want collective
bargaining?"
Below the letter, we printed a

short article concerning a
petition circulated by Prof.
Wesley Houser which maintained
that the AAUP poll was not
official, which supported
Antrim's basic argument.
One faculty member who
signed the petition has decided
to clarify his position in the
matter. In a note to the editor,
Dr. Lloyd Woodruff said he
"signed it in the sport of
wanting to encourage more
interest in the issue," and did
not necessarily "support"
Antrim's position.

Guest Commentary
Live or Die
ED. NOTE: The
Capitolist recognizes its
duty to provide space for
both student and faculty to
air their opinions on a
variety of subjects.
Following is a comment by
a Capitol Campus senior,
regarding the current
international balance of
power.
Recently in the news reports
of the Communist Chinese
creating a super missile, the
Soviets fireing missiles in the
Chinese' direction, and talks of a
three sided balance between
Moscow, Peking and Washington
has led me to a few conclusions.
The first of which is, that war
between two or all three of the
parties is approaching the state
of inevitability. China is the
intangible at the time! As she
growi stronger, the world, in it's
present condition, is nearing the
point where talking is obsolete.
Speaking of 'talking, it's
fascinating to look at current
developments. The first one is
that the Soviets still permitted
our "illustrious" leader to enter
their country after the mining of
Haiphong Harbor. The second is
the visitation of President Nixon
to Red China. The third, and
possibly the most important, is
the rumor of a U.S. troop
pullout from Taiwan. I feel that
utmost in importance is the

relationship we have with Red
China. All along, Mao's
government maintained that if
we pullout of Taiwan we would
be going in the right direction
towards a friendlier relationship.
This should be an easy thing for
us to do for we should not be
there in the first place. What
business did the U.S. have
interfering in the civil war
between Chiang's Nati nalists
and Mao's Communists?
Another reason pointing to
the simplicity of a Taiwan
pullout is that the U.S. would be
stabbing Chiang in the back;
something our country does not
only do well, but often.
Why this discussion? Because
this all ties in with our possible
future. China's history, that in
contact with the U.S., decides if
we will survive or not. This is a
crisis in American History and a
crisis in the World's future that
must not be ignored.
