SB
S launches
ROTC protest
The University Students for
a Democratic Society (SDS)
has risen again and plans to
hold the campus's first pro
test demonstration this year
at Tuesday's basketball
game.
About 35 students attended
the first SDS meeting of the
semester Thursday night and
agreed to launch a protest
against military recruiting on
campus, the granting of
academic credit for ROTC
and the war in Vietnam.
A second open meeting is
set for Monday night.
Lincoln
Continued from page 1
People think there is no
problem in Lincoln, he con
tinued. But, there are no
blacks in country clubs or
hotels. There are no black
bank presidents. There are
only housing problems and
employment problems.
Blacks hold dead end jobs
in Lincoln, he said. They have
no ability, experience or
chance to hold anything
else.
Concerned about housing, a
Lincoln man asked 15 of his
friends what they would think
if he sold his house to a black
family, Booth related. And 14
of them replied, "Oh no don't
do that."
THERE IS hidden
discrimination in Lincoln; he
said.
True, much progress has
been made throughout the
United States to combat
discrimination, Booth said.

People say there has been
much progress, Booth said.
These same people say, "Why
raise hell be thankful" but
the truth is that the progress
has not been felt by the little
man, the progress has not
reached the masses, he ad
ded. In New York City familes
are living in three-room, rat
infested, run down
apartments costing $150 a
month, he said. Generally the
landlords can't even be
located, but if they are and
are hauled into court they are
fined $20 and set free.
IN VIETNAM the Army has
proportinally a far larger
percentage of black soldiers
than there are in the general
population, Booth said.
The little man, such as the
black without much money or
power, is victimized by laws,
he said.

He said the mock unit will
drill in front of Uie Coliseum
before the game and possibly
hold a demonstration inside
the building during the game
half-time.

Booth was a practicing at

years.
"If you have money or in

you," he said.
Too often law and order has
meant enforcement of laws
only against the little man,
Booth said. Let's start en
forcing the laws against
discrimination, landlords and
big business.
It has been said that peo
ple's hearts and minds must
be changed before discrimina

"Hogwash!" shouted Booth.

Health Center filled
without epidemic aid
Though the Student Health
Center is filled to capacity
with influenza cases, the ma
jor epidemic hasn t yet begun
according to Center clinician
Dr. Richard Hammer.
A major epidemic is ex
oected to reach its oeak in
January and February, he
said. The lniluenza tnat will
hit the hardest is the vHong
Kong strain of "Asian tlu.
Standard influenza will also
be around, he added.
DR. HAMMER said that
students going home for
Christmas will bring more of
the flu virus back to the
University from their home
communities. This will more
than counteract any good ef
fects coming from increased
rest during this time.
Those who have already
had flu shots should have
boosters very soon, he said.
However, it is too late for
shots to be effective for those
who have had none
previously.
The best preventative for
flu is rest and proper nutri

a student organization. No
more than a dozen students
were involved in the
organization last year.
Never much of a dues-collecting

Much else has to be done.
Churches, labor unions, big
business and other organiza
tions must get out in the
streets and find out what is
happening, Booth said.
But most importantly the
faucet of hate must be turned
off, he said. People have got
to listen to the winds of
change and stop classifying
men because of their color.
Booth said, "It hurts me to
even look at the American
flag because it is supposed to
stand for liberty and justice
for all, but I know that there
isn't liberty and justice for

tion, Dr. Hammer continued.
Unaffected people should also
keep away from those coming
down with colds as much as
possible.
He said that people of high
school and college age are
hardest nit by the flu in terms
of numbers. The sickness
leads to its most serious
complications in those over
sixty-five, however.
'HONG CONG" flu is
characterized by a dry hack
ing cough, stuffy head,
general head and body aches,
feelings of dizziness, and
temperatures of 102 to 103, he
continued.
Symptoms are most severe
for two to three days.
Coughing and walkness lasts
for some time afterward, he
added.
Dr. Hammer said that only
those who are very sick or
who have complications are
being admitted to Student
Health due to lack of space.
The only treatement for flu is
rest, aspirin, and orange
juice, he added.
