Like others of the radical right, she rejects out of hand any program that involves federal funds or regulations and then dares to say she might support the "substance" of the issue. In a national women's conference, the "substance" often must involve federal policy. Though the federal government can't solve all our problems, in some cases (such as appointing women to United Nations' agencies), it is the only body that can act. Of course the U.N. may be a communist plot. Well, I am still waiting to find out whether Ed Firmage aligns himself with Georgia Peterson. And if he can't see women as people, I'm suspicious of any of his civil rights sympathies. M. Christensen Listen to the music Editor: Re: Keith Moore and Patricia Salazar (letters, Monday) I wear jeans and grubby boots to the symphony because I walk from my house in the avenues. I am certainly not going to drag my good clothes through the mud, rain and snow of Utah winters. I do not squirm, cough or talk during the performances; I cannot say the same for some of THE BETTER DRESSED. If K. Moore and P. Salazar had paid more attention to the music, they would never have noticed the casually dressed people behind them. Virginia Hill Candidate's opinion? Editor: vote regarding the Rice Stadium concert on the same page (front page at that) with a picture of what the Chronicle obviously believes happens daily around lunchtime on the Union patio lawn. While we would hope no one would infer that a similar picture would be seen in Rice Stadium after a concert of the type requested some nitwit may just think it a possibility. I write this letter to offer my support for the concert idea and also to offer a suggestion. If the concert is approved by a reversal vote at the June IC meeting, why not allow free admission but then do not allow anyone to leave until they have filled a Glad garbage sack of rubbish? Brad J. Stevens P.S. Leave Ben Ling alone. What majority? outdoor rock U Editor: The Institutional Council and Dave Gardner have once again reaffirmed that our student body government is not responsible enough to throw an outdoor rock concert. (Never mind that nightlife as it is is as bland as the pizza sold in Salt Lake or that this event would break the current monotony of Tom Jone; Roy Clark-typ- e concerts). So let us just accept this council morale mandate that usurps student government responsibility regarding our concert activity and calls us sheep! Let us forget that ASUU is bound to make a handsome profit from this venture or that e this would be the first real outdoor concert with acts. Let's be sheep! big-nam- letters in the Chronicle recently which a desire know to exactly where candidate Edwin express issues involving human rights. certain stands on Firmage Those persons noted that the candidate's wife, Gloria, was an elected member of the Utah delegation to the IVVY in Houston. National news coverage of that historic event is vivid in my mind; I still shudder with embarrassment at our state's participation. Gloria's group, which was made up predominately of Republican women led by Georgia Peterson, voted basically as a bloc. Their position on resolutions has been cited many times in a number of places. In view of Gloria's record as an t, I too wondered where husband Edwin, who seeks the Democratic party nomination, stands. Does he differ from Dan Marriott on women's issues? Unfortunately, Edwin Firms ye chose not to address himself to those inquiries. Instead, the Chronicle printed a letter from Gloria Firmage, whose position we already know too well. In a lengthy composition, which my political science instructor would label hollow rhetoric cloaked in sincerity, we learned that the Utah Woman of the Year has studied, worked, borne children and likes art. She has travelled widely and has seen suffering. Her vote in Houston, she tells us, was a result of hard study and the influence of her philosophy of life and morality. How interesting that the depth of her study, philosophy and morality allowed her to feel very comfortable in a predominantly Republican delegation headed by Georgia Peterson. "The democratic process invites diverse opinion, it stimulates debate," said Gloria. Edwin Firmage has decided not to exercise this privilege. The questions remain unanswered.
