Womanpower -the key ingredient
in Coed Follies production tonight
Womanpower is the key in
gredient used in preparing
for Friday's Coed Follies pro
duction at Pershing Auditor
ium, according to the six "Ex

Multiplying an average of
two-hour-long practice ses
sions daily for four weeks by
approximately ,360 individual
skit participants and adding
about 30 hours in making cos
tumes and scenery for each
skit equals nearly 17.000 hours
cf preparation for the three
hour program.
Vicky Umberger, Kappa Al

A majority of graduate in
structors who were inter
viewed at random concerning
the limitation of draft defer
ments agree that the new poll
cy will be detrimental to the
University s graduate schools
Beginning in September,
1968, the Selective Service will
limit graduate deferments to
medical and dental students
and associated fields; students
who have completed at least
two years of graduate study
by June this year; and stu
dents in theological schools.
Prof. Lee T. Lemon in the
English department said that
the government was going
from one extreme to the oth
er, from being too liberal to
being too tight. He said tiiat
the new policy will affect long
range educational plans lor
the University.
A balanced enrollment
He said that limited grad'
uate draft deferments will cut
the enrollment of new male
graduate students, adding that
it is best to have a balanced
enrollment in the social sci
ences for departmental rea
sons, and that no department
would want an all-women
graduate enrollment.
"The interruption between
degrees in higher education is
an awkward time for the stu
dent, more so than the inter
ruption between high school
and college," he added.
Lemon said that he would
rather see people taken from
the age group between high
school and college because
they are not always certain of
their professional plans, and
they are a few more years
away from marriage than the
graduate student.
Excitement about profession
''Ideally, the student gets
excited about a profession in
college. To interrupt this pur
suit of a professional field is

very unhealthy," he said.
On the other hand, Dr. Jack
M. Sosin, history professor,
said there is a national need
and that all the controversy
being raised is "a lot of non
sense." Sosin said that college grad
uates who want to go to grad
uate school, but are eligible
for the draft under the new
policy, have to wait only two
years, and that those who are
deferred will be taken after
they have completed their stu
dies. Reasons for disagreement
He added that those who dis
agree with the new policy are
doing so for two reasons: be
cause they are opposed to the
war in Vietnam, and because
their departments are unnec
essarily relying on graduate
students to teach undergrad
uates.
The graduate schools will be
affected only as much as they
use their students for under
graduate instruction, Sosin
said.
Dr. John Janovy, Jr.. assis
tant professor of zoology, said
graduate students are teach
ers of the future and thev
nave a aeiinite place in the
classroom-lab situation and in
teaching the lower level un
dergraduate courses.
New policy unrealistic
He said that the new draft
policy is "a little bit unrealis
tic" in regard to the areas it
exempts. Janovv added that
if graduate schools become de
pleted, there will be a gap in
education in a few years be
cause of a lack of qualified
teachers.
He said he was not totally
against drafting graduate stu
dents, but said he objected to
the choice of the Selective Ser
vice to exempt only those stu
dents in fields that are of
direct benefit to the armed
forces.
"I think the graduate
schools are padded enoueh to

a
of draft calls." he said, "but
they could not withstand any
thing serious."
Effect not immediate
"The new policy won't hurt
our department, at least for
another year when there will
be a drastic cut in the num
ber of good qualified students
who enroll," he said.
Janovy added that the real
hurt will occur in "five or ten
years when we have a smaller
influx of teachers into the
graduate programs."
The School of Dentistry will
be affected only indirectly, ac
cording to Assoc. Prof. Rich
ard E. Bradley. He said that
the school employs many of
the graduate students in the
basic science fields for in
structional purposes.
Women replacements
From the numbers stand
point, the only way to avoid
the problem of a lack of grad
students and assistants will be
to fill up the vacant positions
with women, Bradley said.
He did not want to comment
on the equitability of the new
draft policy because he had
not studied the situation in any
great detail.
John J. Scholz, associate
professor in chemistry, said
that the limits placed on grad
uate deferments is disastrous
because it will leave a com
plete gap in trained manpow
er. Chemistry loss
"Last fall, the chemistry de
partment used 90 half-time
teaching assistants. If we
were to lose this manpower,
we couldn't continue with our
program," he said.
Scholz said that the draft
policy will certainly affect un
dergraduate enrollment in the
department if there are no
teaching assistants to run the
labs and correct the papers.
"It (the draft policy) will be
cutting the number of trained
people to the extent that the

personnel supply will be cut
off at the well-head," he said.
Effect on research
Prof. Orvin C. Burnside said
that the number of graduate
students in the Agronomy de
partment will be markedly re
duced, but the draft policy will
not affect the teaching assis
tant program as much as the
research program.
"We have about 65 graduate
students involved in research
Drocrams and five woi kintr as
teaching assistants," he said.
"If 50 per cent of these stu
dents are pulled out of school,
it would leave a lot of re
search hanging."
"We are all faithful to our
country, but if a great num.
ber of students are called up,
this will reduce the research
effort of the entire University.
The graduate schools cannot
be turned on and off that
readily," he said.
Public sentiment
Burnside added that public
sentiment seems to have gone
against graduate students be
cause a few people who are
not interested in prlnratinnal
endeavors have said that grad
uates have continued . their
schooling simply to sit behind
the shield of deferment.
He said he believes that 99
per cent of those who go on
to graduate colleges are sin
cere students and do not con
tinue their education only to
avoid the draft.
