Show LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Last Chance Dear Today is the last day of voting for the class officers and could well be the last year that class officers are elected on this This could well be the case if the voting continues to be as small as it has been to THERE WILL be at least one committee that will survey the results of this election and the total number of students voting will be a good factor in finding out how many students really want class So if you want class elections to I would encourage you to get out and vote If class elections are not of interest to you will make it known by your abstinence from TO class officers are important and can be a constructive part of our student government if we will first of all choose the qualified officers and then give them definite responsibilities to At the this is not the and the situation needs to be looked into and a re-evaluation It is my desire to see that this study is made and that the problems are I would ask for your support in electing me to the office of senior class personnel coordinator so that I might represent you well in the Senate and see to it that these problems are worked JEFF CIRCUIT Willing And

PENDLETON ROSEANN SMITH Assigned Lectures Dear Last year in a Basic Communications the students were assigned to attend a number of lectures under the auspices of the Assemblies and Convocations Committee and the Extension AT FIRST some of us were annoyed with this assignment but after attending them we found out how important they This although no requirements are made for such listening I go to the convocations because they are an important part of my I FEEL it is a privilege to have such speakers as Ralph Felix Ralph Lapp and Carey McWilliams address our student Personally I am grateful that these lectures were offered to the and many of my friends have expressed these same MARY Looking For Point Dear I have tried to distill some point from the faulty impossible organization and and theological double-talk of Jeppson's I am not sure I have been successful because I'm not sure it has a but at least I have made a careful and valiant APPARENTLY he is saying that someone should reply to Read's contention that members of the Mormon Church are not intellectually free to criticize or challenge dogma or the temporal policies of their Jeppson's suggestion for such a reply would seem to involve the following Either we should conclude that the Mormon God does not in which case we should scrap the Mormon or we should admit that there is the of the existence of such a If we admit this to challenge His commandments is results from the fact that I don't quite see how this dilemma has any connection with what Read had to Surely no one is naive enough to suppose that a challenge to Church policy or dogma is a challenge to the commandments of There are so many alternatives other than this that we can here suggest only a any one of which would very readily free from the horns of Jeppson's we might very well grant that the Mormon God does exist while still admitting that the Mormon leaders do not have the last word concerning the nature of the commandments of this Even Jeppson would agree with we could suppose that the Mormon God is not so selfish as to limit knowledge of Himself and His commend-ments to Mormon leaders He might very likely reveal some such knowledge and commandments to Mormon laymen and heretical as it may to members and leaders of other The gods of many churches are not so different from the Mormon God that they could not all be one and the as Jeppson God quite clearly withholds much knowledge of Himself from man If such is the then clearly it should be the privilege and actually the duty of any man to challenge what he regards as the false conceptions of another's view of And this I believe would be at least a part of Read's IF THIS VIEW Is not the then we would have to suppose that God has revealed Himself completely to someone and furthermore that this someone has or is able to communicate his revelation to other people without or alteration in the smallest I doubt that even Jeppson would want to grant this To I would admit quite frankly that I don't know whether or not I have correctly interpreted Jeppson's but I don't believe it is immodest of me to say that this failure is a result of my inability to understand what is intelligibly the only point I can make with any brevity on this account is to suggest that Jeppson check the meaning of before he again uses it so freely and WILLIAM W. THACKERAY Free Association Dear We are writing this letter in reply to the letter of May 7 by We feel that his outlook is narrow and How much does know about the policies of fraternities or or for that matter any other organization of people that is supposed to THE FRATERNAL system was founded on the premise that people could become closer in their bonds of friendship and brotherhood by choosing the people with whom they wish to Where in the Constitution of the United States does it say that a person does not have the right to choose his What religion does the Docs anybody ever think or want to find out what the minority groups have to say in this Do they really want to be associated with people of other races in situations such as fraternal WE ARE NOT against riding or eating with people of other races which our fraternity Our fraternity is and others that we joined knowing full well of its We joined for the type of friendship and brotherhood that is available in the fraternal people like would come up with a workable solution instead of the crackpot ideas he the problem wouldn't be as grave as it SOW MANY people of minority groups does associate with in a manner characteristic of the fraternal How many of these people does he associate with as friends or even Until he can answer these questions affirmatively we wish he would confine his crusades to some other endeavor in this vast world we live BILL FOLLAND JEFF MONSON BOB RIC STRONG MATT SIMMONS DON ARMSTRONG TOM PIKE GARY BOB REEDER BILL WRIGHT STEVE WRIGHT DAVE L ATT IN |
