Show in- very poor taste. (Phot Menzies). R.M. Coldbergei Red panty raids Editor: Your attack on Joseph McCarthy and the Memorial Fund that has been erected in his honor is only too typical of the ignorance and hysteria that is found on nearly every campus across the whole breadth of this nation. It is a sorry fact that so many know so little about the real man and his fight for America. Witness the fact that the men whose characters it is said McCarthy Mc-Carthy destroyed are now lecturing lec-turing Nixon in the Oval Room of the White House, and writing letters to their creditors on White House stationary. Witness the fact that a Rabbi teaching at a famous woman's college in the East, told his frightened students with a straight fact that McCarthy, in trying to ferret out the Communists Com-munists in the State Department, was solely responsible for the college "panty raid" fad of the early 50"s. Witness the fact that Allen Cinsburg, as recently reported in the New York Times, took a troop of his "fellows" to the McCarthy grave site to burn incense and chant a litany to exorcise the supposedly evil spirit that rested there. And now witness the Chronicle editors, through the medium of their editorial page, joining with Cinsburg in dancing on the grave of the man who in life they could not equal in greatness. Ron Holt More pots Editor: Because of the favorable response to my letter in the Chronicle of October 14 announcing an-nouncing the new ceramics studio at the Jewish Community Center, I am opening a new class, especially for college students which will meet on Thursday evenings from 7:30 to y:Ju, beginning Thursday, October 21.' There are still a few places left. In addition there are some openings left in a few other classes. Our equipment is all new and includes electric wheels and a kiln that fires stoneware. The course includes unlimited firing, and the fee is half that of a University course. Those interested in-terested should call Liz Vigoda, 364-6739 as soon as possible. Elizabeth Vigoda Give me more Editor: I have just stumbled upon my first copies of the 71-72 Chronicle. What a pleasant surprise to find that it is not only passingly iterate, but not a crashing bore It good to see that the Chronicle ..a passed back into editorship at long last) by the sex which knows how to edit, while the other sex, hopefully, has retreated to the one thing only it can do. Congratulations on the first decent-looking editions in yearsi I look forward to reading as many as possible, even though I'm no longer hving in the shadow of the "mpus. (I have emmisaries get them for me). Keep it up. You're good at last. Keith Moore Larry is OK Editor: The city elections this year provide the students with an interesting choice of candidates, especially since we can vote for two. Larry Schieving is a candidate can-didate for the city commission who will truely be representative of all the people. He will help solve the cities problems of better working conditions for city employees, needed recreation and community center, management of the city budget and the citizens well-being. Therefore we vigoursously endorse en-dorse Larry Schieving for the city commission. Max Coff Brnet Larsen Picture to the editor Editor: Marietta Ann Hatch has fantastic legs obviously. The picture of legs rendered in an obscene fashion in the Chronicle needs to be corrected as first, they are not her legs and second the picture is - :i (' y t I. i t. |
