presents a view of the history
of the Vietnamese struggle
beginning with the French
engagement in the 1930's,
tracing the growth of
American Involvement
through the 1950's and '60s,
and suggests the possible
consequences of the current
United States intervention in

Reflects little
"As a result, the schools
planning reflects very little
of what the kids think and
feel, or about their history
and language" he continued.
Chancellor Robert Roessel,
Jr., of the Navajo Com.
munity College 'n Chinle,
-Arizona and Hohn Dick,
medicine man and represen
tative of a community con
trolled school in Chinle will
be speaking at several
meetings about these pro
blems. Murray Wax, an an
thropologist from Lawrence,
Kan.; Webster Two-Haek:
chief-elect at the Rosebud
Indian Reservation in South
Dakota, and Gene Crawford
of the Omaha Public school
system will also deal with
Indian problems relating to
education.
Wax has written "the most
scathing indictment of
education on the reservation
that has ever been publish
ed," according to Olson. He
added that the school-systems
in Arizona are now trying to
"perpetuate the Indian
culture rather than destroy
it."
The second objective of the
conference is to offer pro
fessional expertise on Indian
affairs to students and to the
Indian community.
Olson said he was told by
an Indian ait a recent
reservation conference that,
"what we need are Indian
experts, not experts on In
d'ans." The conference will
bring Indian experts together
to talk about Indian con
cerns. Robert Burnette, head of
the American Indian Civil
Rights Council; Shirley Witt,
Navajo leader of the Minori
ty Coalition of Indians,
Chlcanos and Blacks; Disk
Hesburg of the American
Civil Rights Committee and
Lew Soens, both of Notre
Dame will discuss Indian
politics and power.
Red power, defined by
Dupres as "Indian control
over their own lives" will
also be discussed. Rueben
Snake, Leonard Spr'nger and
Oliver Saunsauci, local In
dian leaders will deal with
this and other subjects.
Olson said the growing Red
Power movement will be In
effective without Indian con
trol of institutions and thus
there 's a growing concern
over schools and education.
The conference should give
students ideas as to what
they can offer to Indians,
Olson said. He cited legal
problems, as an example.
Treaty trouble

over treaties that need to be
sorted out. and there are

He also ment'oned the
tutorial projects now being
organized as an opportunity
for students to help. The
reservation schools' cur
riculum is 100 college prep,
and yet almost no Indian
students go on to college,
Olson said.
Olson said that with a pro
per attitude the project could
provide Indian high-school
students contacts with the
campuses and prov'de a
better understanding of col
lege life.
In addition to trying to
catch the imagination of the
students the conference may,
by bringing outside
organizers to Nebraska sug
gest ideas and a focus for
Indian programs in the state,
Olson said.
The th'rd objective of the
conference is to educate Tri
U n 1 v ersity participants.
Those involved in higher
education are also involved
in training teachers for
reservation schools.
"We're all doing lousy job
of it," he said.
Kimball Hall premie

Robert Jenkins, a
sophomore from Lincoln, will
perform as the English Horn
soloist in Sibelius' "The Swan
of Tuonela." One of the
"Four Legends" based on the
Finnish epic, the Kalevala,
"The Swan of Tuoneola" was
originally a prelude taken
from Sibelius' opera, "The
Creation of the Boat." writ
ten in 1893.
In this work for English
Horn and orchestra, there Is
a tinge of melancholy and
mysticism reflecting the
mood of this setting from
from
ffd
legend.
"Guaracha" Is the third
movement from Morton
Gould's "Latin-American
Symphonette." Gould's name
is among the best known in
serious American music and
his compositions are among
the most often performed in
this country. The playing of
"Guaracha." is part of a
firogram of events associat
ng the School of Music with
the Latin-American Institute
on the campus.
Charles Griffes, probably
the greatest exponent of im-
Eressionism in music In the
nited States, composed
"The Pleasure-Dome of the

position, he utilizes the in
spiration of Samuel Coleridge
Taylor's poetry "Kubla
Kahn" to produce a sym
phonic poem.

Panel discusses
Vietnam policy
Left, right and middle-of-the-road
met head-on Tuesd
ay in a panel discussion on
Vietnam and the Moratorium
presented by Sigma Delta
Chi, professional journalism
honorary.
The November Vietnam
Moratorium is clearly an
expression of dissent against
the Nixon policy in Vietnam,
according to Phil Scribner,
assistant professor of
philosophy.
Outlining his pro.
-moratorium view, Scribner
renounced the Nixon plan of
troop withdrawals which is
based on the decreasing level
of enemy hostilities, the suc
cess of negotiations In Paris
and the ability of the Army
of the Republic of Vietnam to
take over fighting.
Prolong war
The philosophy professor
added that Nixon still wants
a military victory which,
Scribner said, could only be
achieved by killing all the
Viet Cong guerillas. The U.S.
will never be able to do this
and could prolong the war for
years, he added.
With a peaceful and im
mediate withdrawal, the
government of South Viet
nam would have to revamp
itself to gain the support of
the people to continue the
fight, form a coalition with
the North Vietnamese or get
out, he said.
"Any one of these
alternatives would be ad
vantageous to our present
course of action," Scribner
said. "This is not our finest
hour, as Nixon said in
November, and there is no
clear way out of it "
John Braeman, associate
professor of history, argued
in favor of the Nixon plan
because, as a matter of
political realism, he said it
would be best to try an all
out effort to win while
minimizing the losses at the
same time.
Gassing of
students is
f
questioned
San Francisco (CPS)
The use of CS gas in
dispersing student demon
strations has led to a number
of investigations and allega
tions, but nothing has ever
been done to curtail its use.
Recently, students in Bay
Area high schools have been
securing their own arsenals.
Apparently stolen from
military bases (Hamilton Air
Force Base and Travis Air
Force Base), authorities
have found numerous CS
grenades in the lockers of
high school students.
With immediate concern,
the San Francisco county
sheriff's department in the
personage of Capt. Herbert
Elvander pleaded with
students to return the
grenades because, "They are
far more harmful than tear
gas and have a clinlng effect
to cause serious skin
burns."

"A Communist victory In
South Vietnam would
tremendously increase the
pressures of Communist
perversion in southeast
Asia." he said.
Objections
Braeman objected to
moratorium activities
because "they adversely in
fluence the negotiating posi
tion of the United States and
they jeopardize the efforts of
the President.
"The activities are part of
a drift toward U.S.
withdrawal from all overseas
committments into a
'fortress' America which
would not be in our interests.
They are the latest In a
series of attempts to wrest
policy-making power from
Washington officials by an
extra-governmental group,"
he added.
A crowd of 200,000 may
look big in Washington, he
said, but what Is it to the
nation?
Dr. Gerald Walker of
Pershing College and the
nation's youngest college
president at 31, said he
followed the middle ground
position in support of Nixon
because it is the hast
alternative yet offered for a
solution to the war.
He said that the military
problem has not been to de
fend sovereignty, but t
Veterans
stay out
of parade
The University's Student
Veterans Organization
observed Veterans Day on
Tuesday only by wearing
American flag armbands.
The organization was In
vited to march in the
American Legion's Veterans
Day parade, but voted
against participating in the
parade. The student veterans
did not march because of
class schedules, outside work
and family obligations ac
cording to Andy Bandars,
president of the organiza
tion. "When I wore the flag on
Veterans Day it had a dual
purpose I was supporting
Veterans Day and the Presi
dent of the United States,"
Bandars said. He spent three
years in the army in
Europe.
The student veterans are
not going to take any action
for or against the
moratorium this week, ac
cording to Bandars. He said
"If members care to
participate in the
moratorium it will be on
their own behalf."
"I'm against the war,
everyone wants the war to
end," the veteran said. "I
cant support the Moratorium
or be against it"
He contends the Morator
ium has developed into some
thing more than a peace
movement.

establish sovereignty which,
according to a critic he cited,
is impossible. The logical
recourse to U.S. failure is
withdrawal, he added.
"But since our presence in
Vietnam has put South Viel
nam In a more awkwar.
position regarding the Hano
government," Walker saio'
the U.S. has an obligation "ti.
those people who have rallies
to our banner to render them
some sort of protection."
The most responsible
posture that the U.S. could
assume would be that of
gradual turnover of
responsibility to Soutix Viet
nam accompanied by
periodic and unannounced
combat troop withdrawals,
Walter added, leave a core
"the U.S. should force behind
to support the ARVN
logistically from established
defense areas."
"In the future, we must
recognize that a Communist
takeover may be less
destructive than the havoc
and destruction we could
render with an attitude of
rigid opposition to Com
munism," he said.
John Eaves and Lonetta
Harrold, president and vice
president of the Afro
American Collegiate Society,
said they were dedicated to
making the war more mean
ingful to Blacks at home.
Peace at home
"We verbally support the
moratorium," Eaves said.
"We feel that before America
should work for peace
abroad, but it should first
work for peace at home."
Vietnam is a question of
priorities among Blacks, and
the war is not one of those
priorities, he added.
Although Miss Harrold said
that the American right to
dissent exists in this country,
she charged that the U.S. has
no "true democracy and all
we take to foreign countries
is American Imperialism."
Responding to one ques
tion, Scribner said that
Americans would probably
not be arguing and discuss
ing the moratorium as in
tensely as they are now If the
government would not have
bungled the fairness of the
draft, civil rights and the
urban problems.
Had the government been
successful in resolving some
of these domestic issues, he
continued, popular faith in
the federal government
would not have been so
visibly shaken.
Others on the panel were
Mike Shonsey, University
coordinator of moratorium
activities. Ralph Larsen and
Terry Cannon, both of the
NU chapter of Young
Americans for freedom.
Dissent is subject
Young Republicans will
meet Thursday at 8 p.m. in
the Nebraska Union. A law
yer, a policeman and a
statesman will present a
panel discussion on "Dis
sent." All Interested students are
encouragYl to attend. Mem
berships will be told.
