Coliseum elevator.
Coliseum 'repells9 Berets
It looked like a scene from
an old war movie. . Dressed in
green army fatigues and red
beret, Robert Martig edged
slowly backwards out of the
top window of the Coliseum.
With a .ope wrapped around
his waist and wrist to control
his fall, the student Executive
Officer of the Army Scarlet
Berets pushed off the side of
the building and slid 100 feet
to the ground below.
He was followed by four
other members of the Berets,
as they demonstrated the
technique of repelling a
student batallion 20 yards
away.
A dummy dressed in
fatigues came sailing out the
window and landed with a
thud on he concrete below, a
warning to careless soldiers.

The last man out the
window, Robert Stowell, drew
applause from the crowd of
100 ROTC students as he ran
down the side of the building
face first, the rope whistling
through his hands.
Sporting rope burns,
Stowell, graduate of West Point
and faculty adviser to the
Berets, said the demonstration
was to let ROTC members
know the skills used in the
Army.
Repelling can be used to
suspend the soldier from a cliff
while he sets charges or to
descend from helicopters, said
Stowell.
There's no danger if the
equipment is checked properly,
said Stowell. A safety man on
the ground held the rope and
could stop the soldier's fall if
he was injured. Stowell added.

engraving. Stencil embossing,
the collograph, and engraving
on lucite appear along with the
more traditional media of
woodcuts, linocuts and
mezzotints.

Prints has been sponsored by
the library of Congress since
1943 through funds
bequeathed to the Library by
the American artist, Joseph
Pennell.

Late Thursday afternoon
Rozman returned to President
Joseph Soshnik a letter
detailing the political scientist's
firing.
Rozman said he received
two copies of the letter by
certified mail-one at his office,
another at his home.
"This is a waste of the
taxpayer's money," he told
Soshnik. "It could have been
sent through the campus mail
for nothing."
Soshnik consulted by
telephone with a University
attorney and then told
Rozman he could not accept
the letter.
Rozman then left Soshnik's
office, leaving the still
unopened letter on the
President's desk.
The team, coached by Jim
Wise, was headed by its top
four scorers: Vic Knutson, Phil
Roubal, Dean Batie and Mikr
Robinson.
