Second, where was the wild protest of the studentbody that induced in-duced the "resignation"? I can remember re-member hearing of coaches being burned in effigy and earlier in the football season I can remember watching the San Francisco 49ers playing and signs waving in the background saying goodbye Johnny. John-ny. The most vocal criticism seemed to come from the typewriter type-writer of Gordon Irving and several sev-eral "freshmen" girls. I guess student stu-dent opinion just doesn't count in areas like that. I wonder why. Third. Whose protests do count? The daily tabloids brought out the facts as they saw them, but the same paper that put Cleon Skou-sen's Skou-sen's telecast on Mayor Lee next to the obituaries made a few errors er-rors of judgment seem as import-tant import-tant as Goldwater's defoilation statement. The other paper whose fairness of coverage limits discussion discus-sion of our "sister" institution to the south to anything that sounds like happy time chooses to drag out the same situation for weeks. I was expecting to hear of the water wa-ter content of the soil, the depth to the first aquifer level, and a complaint com-plaint about the cases of pneumonia pneumo-nia caused by the humidity of the well watered field. Finally, I'm forced to wonder ( and when the facts will ever come out. It took another whimsical decision de-cision of our attorney general to let people know that Mike Gid-dings Gid-dings wasn't a quitter.

In a natural way, I was interested inter-ested in the entire happening. It was annoying to me that there were so many questions in mind that deserved answers but never received them. The only answer that was readily available was about five football players standing stand-ing in the Union Building lobby looking as if they had lost more than just a football game.

Their resignations were due to "personal reasons."

I can't understand whether the assistants wanted to topple over two years worth of construction and take Mike "Giddings with them or not.
