Encampment Workshops
Need Realignment
The workshops set up for Encampment this fall are
grossly out of balance,
Two workshops—SGA and community living—far
overshadow the others in importance and amount of work
necessary
The SGA workshop is charged with the herculean
task of salvaging the present system of student govern-
ment by revamping such things as the political party sys
tern and its role, constituencies of Assembly members,
nominations and elections procedures, size of assembly.
The noble venture with the new SGA barely stumbled
through its first complete year leaving deep scars.
It' is no secret that the test year proved there are
several things about the system that must he changed or
it will be 'discarded ere it reaches next encampment.
Community living as a campus-wide concept is
relatively new and with recent setbacks is still not out of
the embryonic stage.
But it can play a vital (and refreshing) role in main
taining a sense of individualness among the students on
this
_sprawling campus.
As the University continues to expand to gargantuan
proportions the campus must be decentralized or the
student will become - a lost soul in a vast impersonal at
mosphere. Community living areas can provide a new
focus for the student interest and save the personality
and individualness of the campus student.
And community living, if it materializes as expected,
can have a great effect on the student government sys
tem at this University. It may force an entirely new sys
tem to be devised. This is the grave matter that falls upon
not only the community living workshop but also upon
the SGA workshop.
It is a shame that when student leaders gather at
Mont Alto in early September to try to iron out all the
problems that can be foreseen for, the coming academic
year, too many of them will be wasted on much less
important committees.
A reallocation is called for with some student leaders
being shifted from their present workshops to the big
two—SGA and community living.
And in view of the' inter-relation of student govern
ment and the community living concept it is imperative
that close communication and coordination or even a
joint committee be set up for complete exchange of ideas
between these two groups during the 3-day encampment.

Interpreting
Step Taken
To Eliminate
Castro Regime
By J. M. ROBERTS
Associated Press
News Analyst
Still trying to avoid direct
intervention, the United States
nevertheless has now taken
the first direct step toward
elimination of the Fidel Cas
tro regime in Cuba.
One step after another now will
have to be taken to prevent the
strategic island, lying aeross the
hemisphere's trade routes not far
from the American shore, from
becoming a Communist outpost.
There can be little doubt
that the Communist sphere will
respond to Castro's sugar cri
sis by taking more and more of
the product in trade at Com
munist rates of exchange.
They may treat Castro well now
for political purposes, but they'll
have him hooked just the same.
The United States apparently
has considered this prospect,
along with the outlook that the
hook will be further set if eco
nomic sanctions are now set up
by joint action with other Ameri
can states, as against the pros
pect that Castro can be forced
out before the Soviet Union can
move in.
Certainly \ now the Cubans are
going to have a chance to judge
whether they profit more from
the revolution, which has helped
a great many of them in short
term ways but which heads fast
er and faster for economic col
lapse, or from regular relations
with the United States.
As Castro confiscates more
and more foreign business with
out hope of paying for it, his
odor will become worse and
worse to the other Latin Amer
ican states who need a stable at
mosphere in which to set up
various inter-American devel
opment programs now being es
tablished.
These governments are already
backing the United States private
ly especially those who will
help fill Cuba's shoes as sugar
suppliers. The question is wheth
er they will risk the old cry of
"imperialist collaboration" in con
certed action against Castro in
public.
Time after time the American
states have considered gingerly
the establishment of an interna
tional police force to handle in
flammable situations.
The idea is being kicked
around again, especially in con
nection with reports that the
Soviet Union is sending arms
f o Castro, including planes,
which would have to be accom
panied by technicians and train
ing cadres as the Soviet Union
did in North Korea.
The Reds might refuie to do
this. since it would undermine
their great propaganda campaign
against U.S. bases abroad.
At any rate the United States
will not stand hitched while Cuba
becomes a base for international
communism, political or military.

Make Political Hay
By KAY MILLS
Collegian
Washington Correspondent
Presidential hopefuls sit in
abundance in the United States
Senate. Should Richard Nixon
and either John Kennedy, Lyndon
Johnson or Stuart Symington cap
ture their parties' nominations, the
Senate may witness the unusual
sight of two presidential candi
dates facing each other across the
chamber when Congress meets in
August r its convention recess.
The special North Dakota sena
torial election in June was a close
one and brought to the mind of
UPl's Grant Dillman another tight
race. In the 1948 elections in Tex
as, Lyndon Johnson beat Coke R.
Stevenson by only 87 out of the
3 million votes cast for the Senate
seat. The election was contested
and Johnson was finally seated.
The most recent Soviet party
line is evident in the second sen
tence of an article in "USSR"
about the International Lenin
Peace Prize winners by Dmitri
Skobeltsyn, prize committee chair
man.
It was Lenin who "laid down
the principle on which Soviet
foreign policy is built the
peaceful co-existence of coun
tries with different social sys
tems," according to Skobeltsyn.
It's odd that this principle has
been lost to everyone in face of
the "inevitable war with capitalist
nations" predicted by Lenin—lost
that is, until Nikita S. Khrush
chev decided it should be found.

vided his party with a new state
The man: Philip H. Wilkie,
bank president and farm opera
tor of Rushville, Ind., as well as
son of the 1940 Republican presi
dential candidate, Wendell Wil
kie.
The office: State superintendent
of Public Instruction.
The issue: Banning frills from
educational curricula.
Wilkie cites such courses at
Ball State Teachers College in
Muncie, Ind.: "Education in
play," "Play in the Curriculum,"
"Archery," "Weaving," "Intro
duction to College Life," "Inter
mediate Horsemanship," spring
sports and games.
He says that there is a college
in California which instructs in
"Barbecuing and Party Prepara
tions," in Texas, "Supervised
Rest," and at the University of
Louisville, "How to Teach How
to Play."
The UPI article adds that Wil
kie, having earned degrees at
Princeton, Harvard and Colum
bia, also objects to "driver train
ing, the elective system and soft
courses" in general.
