Presbytery Rekindles Dispute
In Phoenix-Voice Co operation
Phoenix Center association
with
The
Heterodoxical
Voice continues to bring the
Presbyterian campus ministry
under fire from the New
Castle County presbytery.
Although a special synod
commission formed last June
to investigate the use of
Phoenix facilities by the
Voice recommended that the
leftist newspaper be allowed
to continue publishing from
its present location, the
presbytery disagrees.
In a Dec. 9 meeting, the
presbytery requested that the
synod
re-open
their
investigation. The meeting,
which the Rev. Robert
Andrews referred to as a
"hate rally," heard reports
discrediting the investigation.
One member of the synod
commission, who declined to
be identified, told The
Review that the synod did
not deal with the problem
exhaustively.
He
was
dissatisfied
with
their
conclusion, and presented the
minority opinion of the
commission to the presbytery
at the Dec. 9 meeting.
Many members of the
presbytery feel that the
policy of the Phoenix,

to
the
controversial
newspaper implies church
approval of the paper's
content.
Rev. Andrews said that
while he does not always
agree with the editorial policy
or vocabulary of the Voice,
he believes that their social
concerns are important and
should find support in the
church.
At their Feb. 9 meeting,
the SGA voted to send a
letter of support for the
Phoenix program to both the
presbytery and the synod.
ASl,
Peggy
Bedingfield,
David Norstrom, BEl, and
Robert Rafal, AS9, are
presently drafting the letter,
which will emphasize the
positive influence of the
campus ministry on student
life.

The~ tr::dLional Women's
Playbill will take place at
Mitchell Hall tomorrow and
Thursday beginning at 7 p.m.
There

because of Co-ed Playbill
which took place last week.
Eleven women's residence

this year's event. In order of
appearance, they are Gilbert

are
amateur, Women's Playbill
has traditionally been very
competitive and usually of
high quality. "Even though
there are fewer entries this
year," said Sandy Martorelli,
AS9, vice-president of the
of
Women
Association
Students, " We are expecting
capacity crowds in Mitchell

Submit Bids Tomorrow
Rushees must submit bids in 219 Alison Hall tomorrow
between 8:30a.m. and 5 p.m.
Fraternities will hold their last smokers tonight between 8
and ll p.m. After the smoker a quiet period will be in effect
until bids are released by the IFC. During the quiet period
fraternity men will have no contact with rushees. This is
intended to give the rushee some time to reflect on the past
weeks activities and to decide which fraternity to pledge.
Bids will be released on Thursday from 3 to 5 p.m. in the
Morgan-Vallandigham Room of the Student Center.
Shaull,
professor
of
ecumenics - at
·Princeton
Theological Seminary, will
discuss "The Dimensions of
Peace-Abroad and on Ou'r
Doorstep." The address is
co-sponsored by the political
science
department,
the
American Friends Service
Committee, and Delaware
Pacem in Terris.
Shaull cooperated with
Carl Oglesby in writing
"Containment and Change,"
published in 1967. The bo~k
is already considered a classic
of radical political thought
and has also been considered
one of the best expressions of
New Left political analysis.
Previously, in 1955, Shaull
published "Encounter With
Revolution." The work was
based on his reactions as a
miSSIOnary in Latin America
for the previous 12 years.
Speaking about Shaull, Dr.
A. LeRoy Bennett, professor
of political science, said,
"He's quite interested in
problems of revolution and
change. He was quite shocked
by
the
number
of
intellectuals
in
South
America-many
of whom
United
studied
in
the
States-who
became
anti-American."
Dr. Bennett said that prior
to the address, Shaull will
attend a dinner meeting with
representatives of several
Delaware
organizations
interested in peace education.
He will be asked to present
ideas about what local peace
groups can do to further the
efforts for peace in i:heir own
communities, as. well as
internationally, Bennett said.

P. Volmi, director of dining
services, to save funds.
Anna C. Volk, a Scrounge
worker, stated last week that
the additional half hour
would be used to ready the
Scrounge for opening--which
would include mopping the
floors.
Six of the 14 regular
workers reported for work at
the usual 7 a.m. time. These
workers were informed that
they had the option of either
resigning
and
receiving
university references or of
being
fired.
The

Cecilia A. Jackson, Mrs. Volk,
Theora C. Rohaley, Marie T.

same time, said it would always remain loyal to the ~oviet Union.
UN SUEZ TEAM NOTES DANGEROUS SITUATION
Cairo -- U.N. observer teams are reported to have halted their
mobile patrols along the Suez Canal Sunday in preparation for a
possible major outbreak of fighting between Israeli and Egyptian
forces. Informed sources said chief U.N. observer Carl Linquist
has warned thai ~ "dangerous situation" now exists along the
canal. Israeli military officials have warned Egypt is inviting
Israeli retaliation because of increased sniper fire across the canal.
Officials say several Israeli soldiers have been wounded by the tire
in recent weeks.
S.F. STATE ADMINISTRATION BUILDING BOMBED
San Francisco -- A home-made bomb exploded at San
Francisco State ·college Sunday morning, shattering 18 windows
in the administration building. A campus polkeman driving
nearby was taken to a hospital for treatment of ear injuries. It
was tile second bombing in four days on the troubled campus.
Police are looking for two young men seen running from the
building when the devi.ce was detonated. The school was
scheduled to re-open yesterday for the spring semester.
SIRHAN DISTURBED DEFENSE SAYS
Los Angeles -- The man accused of killing Senator Robert
Kennedy was pictured by one of his defense attorneys Saturday
as -- in his words -- "an immature, emotionally disturbed and
mentally ill youth." Emile Zola Berman made the remark in his
opening statement in the murder trial of Sirhan Sirhan. Berman
characterized Sirhan as a man scarred by his experiences with the
horrors of Arab-Israeli warfare. He said Sirhan was in a trance
when he fired the shot that fatally wounded Kennedy -- in
Berman's words-- "without premeditation or malice."

Phoenix Topic
To Be ,Abortion:
Fact, Fiction'
--
"Abortion :
Fact
and
Fiction"
will
be
the
discussion topic of assistant
professor of sociology Dr.
Stephen L. Finner, at the
Phoenix this Friday.
Finner, who came to the
university this year from the
University of Maine, has done
sociological
research
on
attitudes toward abortion
both at Maine and at Harvard
University. His topic is
particularly timely, as there is
now a bill in the Delaware
legislature to legalize abortion
in restricted situations.
Also appearing Friday will
be the Lexington Jazz Septet.
Martin Van Horn , AS9 , a
member of the Phoenix
Committee, said that the
coffeehouse
hopes
to
eventually have a resident
jazz group to provide music
for its Friday night programs.
So far this year, the
Phoenix has only operated on
Friday · nights. In their
expansion
plans,
the
committee expects to add a
Saturday night "environmental light and sound show" to
experiment with multi-media
presentations, Van Horn said.
The music and discussion
format on Friday nights will
be continued.
In an attempt to broaden
their campus outreach and
present
more
diversified
viewpoints,
the
Phoenix
Committee is looking for
members
with
various
and
political,
religious
philosophical
perspectives.
Interested students should
contact
the
committee
chairman, Bill Streett, AGO,
at the Phoenix Center.

Unitarian
Fellowship
conducted an unusual church
service last Sunday on the
theme " Understanding Young
Radicals."
The Student Religious
Liberals organized a panel
discussion on the question,
"What Do Student Radicals
Want?"
The participants in this
discussion were Lu Zegler,
manager of The Something
• Else Shop in Wilmington,
Mike Ricks, ASl, a member
of
the
Black Students
Organization and Bob Rayne,
AS2, a member of the New
Party Organization. Sam Gish ,
AS1, president of SRL, was
moderator.
In the course of the
discussion, Zegler pointed out
that
t oday 's
radical
movement is youth's reaction
· to · the
realization that
"society has lied" to them.
Through his contact with
high school youth , Zegler
perceives a great desire by
teenagers to create a medium
through which they can
communicate with society .
Ricks
criticized
the
university as an institution
which denies the principles of
a liberal education.
Rayne attacked the war in

said tonight's hour and a half
program, which will be heard
on WHEN at 7:30p.m., is the
first of a series of Tuesday
night
broadcasts
about
various facets of Latin
America.
Each program will deal
with a specific country or
group of countries and will
feature sessions on the
c o u n try 's historical
highlights, interviews with
professors on campus and
nationals from each country,
as well as commentaries on
literature,
customs
and
celebrations.
The Pan-Am Club hopes to
contribute to
a better
understanding and a greater
awareness of Latin America
and to "establishment of a
stronger
inter-hemispheric
solidarity."
The tentative schedule of
programs includes March 4 of
Argentina,
Uruguay, and

A question and answer
period followed the panel
discussion. Many members of
the Congregation appeared
skeptical toward the panel's
views although not outwardly
rejecting them.
Rayne
concluded
the
program with these words to
the Congregation, "If you do
in fact try to understand you
have done a massive thing. If
you
can

At the Graduate Student
Association meeting Sunday
night in the Kirkbride Room,
work was begun to obtain
GSA, Student Government
Association and A'llerican
Association of University
Professors representation on
the Board of Trustees.
The
GSA
passed
a
resolution with unanimous
consent to draft a letter to
the
Board
of Trustees
requesting
student
and
faculty membership on the
Board within two years
instead of the previous ten
year goal. Similar letters will
be drafted by the SG A and
the AAUP.
Other topics covered at the
meeting included a series of
lectures on communications
to be -held on Wednesdays at
7:30 p.m. in the Rodney
Room. The first of these, on
Feb.
26,
will
be an
introductory lecture on the
problems of intercultural
communications. The public
is invited.
Officers for 1968-69 in
the
Graduate
Student
Association are : president,
Gary
O'Connor;
vice
prresident, Michae\ Sinclair; .
recording secretary, George
Inglis ;
corresponding
secretary, Judith Brown; and
treasurer, Paul Cichy.
Within the past year the
GSA
has developed to
become a cohesive and
self-perpetuating assocation
' which encompasses all aspects
of life within the graduate
student community. Ideally it
will provide a forum for ideas
and act as the representative
body for full-time graduate
students at the university.
Recent
activities
sponsored by the GSA
include a reception for
President Trabant, auction
sales in the spring and fall and
representation
in
th
University
Library_
Committee
and
the
Committee for the Evaluation·
and Development of Arts and
Science Curricula.
For the future according
to GSA President Gary
O'Connor, one of the biggest
aims is to find housing · tor
graduate students and to
work with ththe university to
obtain university supported
housing
for
graduate
students. Last year the GSA
maintained
a
housing
information bureau with a list
of
accommodations
for
graduate students in the
Newark area.
New Cinema Reviewed
Shorts Lack Due Attention
By HENRIK KYHLE
Contemporary short films
are unfortunately existing as
a kind of a Cinderella in
relation to the regular length
shows.
We do not have any special
theatres for short films, at the
best they can be shown as
pre-shows to regular movies.
However, many of the most
important short films are
regarded "too advanced" for
a general audience--film goers
are expected to prefer
picturesque
views
from
tourist
festivals in
the
German Alps.
The
short
film
undoubtedly
has
great
potential as an independent
art form. Since it is fairly
limited in time, the director
can concentrate on just one
detail, just one aspect of the
whole. This also opens the
way for new techniques; one
example is the use of
electronic music for sound
effects.
Probably,
the
leading
country in short film today is
Poland, mostly due to the
excellent State Film College
in Warsaw. Therefore, it was
no surprise that two of the
highlights of the second part
of the New Cinema program,
shown in Wolf Hall last
weekend, were Polish .
" The concept of M. Kabal"
by Valerian Borowczyk, an
animation full of murderous
black humor, is a good
example of what can be
achieved through the special
features of this media. His
second film on the program,
"The Games of Angels" stood
out in another way, being a
tremendously
suggestive
reminder
of
the
extermination camps and gas
chambers of times that too
often seem immemorial to
our generation.
Samuel Beckett has already
as
a
won
immortality
playwrHe , by the script to
the F.rench film "Act Without
Words." He proves to have a
lot to enrich modern film, as
well. The symbolic man
trapped in an endless desert
exposed to equally endless
frustration, was a brilliant
visualization of Beckett's
existential philosophy.

The features the audience
most audibly enjoyed were
the British animation " The
Do-lt- Yourself Cartoon Kit"
and
" The
Most,"
a
Canadian-made inside view of
the Playboy empire.
The latter showed another
aspect of short film --the
documentary one. The film,
on the whole was a hilarious
assault on "the American
dream" --the man who with
an original investment of
$600 in 10 years built up a
$20 million organization,
with a menagerie of the
world's largest busts included
in the bargain. Hugh Hefner's
own self-ironical contribution
to the satire gave' him a new
higher place in my personai
appreciation, anyhow.
Television To Add
New Drama Media
Repertory television may
soon join E-5 2 theater as a

medium
of
expression
for · university
students.
A meeting will be held at 7
p.m. Thursday in the Blue

The workshop will explore

Who Killed This Child?
~---------------------------By
I have a picture on my desk. It is of a Biafran child.
He is perhaps four or five years old. He is naked
except for a tattered bandage around his right ankle.
His stomach is incredibly bloated, the veins
standing out under the skin. His limbs are spindly, his
legs covered with sores, his hair white. He is starving
to death.
He stands, hands at sides, knees slightly bent, his
head turned toward the camera. He is frowning
slightly. In that frown you can read district,' apathy

Americans reading the
Western press may have
noticed a surprising absence
of violence from most of the
actions occurring during
August. One British pacifist
weekly,
Peace
News,
exaggerated this phenomenon
to the extent that the Czech
people were made to look
like
the
long-awaited .
nonviolent army.
In fact, there is no
discernible
strain
of
nonviolence running through
· Czech history. There are
some historical circumstances
where nonviolence proved the
most pragmatic position.
August was the most recent
instance; the Nazi invasion
was another. But these
instances
in
no
way
exemplify a philosophical
attachment
to
pacifism.
Violence showed its face in
recent Czechoslovak history
as much as elsewhere in the
world. On Nov. 7, the

Czechs tore down Russian

under
Czech
government orders, brutally
beat the people.
On Nov. 17, during the
debate over the strike versus

A
characteristic
of
the
November strike was the
rapport it developed between
students and the public, the
professors, and the unions .
Some of these cooperative
liaisons
have grown into
strong alliances.
As the strike was churning
momentum, the "Action
Committee"
doing
the
organizing was telephoning all
over the country, attempting
to coordinate the event .
When operators learned that
the Action Committee was on
the line they processed the
call free of charge, wishing
them the best of luck. On the
second day of the strike a
cooperative
farmers'
association brought in 7000
eggs for the student strikers.
Professors
almost
unanimously
backed
the
strike, at minimum through
silent assension, but often
through participation and
leadership. The groovy ones
conducted "anti-seminars."
As expected, the medical
school professors and the
aging professors from other
departments were reluctant
to risk their positions and
"futures"
through
their
participation in such an
affair. As for administrators,
· they do not exist as such in
Czechoslovak
universities;
professors divide up the tasks.
The
most
significant
cooperation was between the
students and the workers.
The 900,000-strong Metal
Workers Union issued a
supportive statement of the
students' ten demands. There
were token work stoppages
throughout
the country.
Some factories blew their
whistles to indicate support.

Strong enough to win in all

Delaware varsity wrestling team expected to beat Gettysburg
last Saturday , but unexpectedly the meet ended in a 16-16 tie.
Several Delaware wrestlers lost points in the last few seconds of
their bouts which cost the team a victory.
Ed Soccorso drew with Beacher of Gettysburg 4-4 in the 123
lb . weight class. Soccorso, who has lost only one time ths year,
was ahead 4-3 with only a few seconds left in the last period.
Beacher escaped for . one point, tying the match just before it
ended.

win in the 600 while one of
la8t week's heroes, Jim Smith ,
captured the 1000 in a time
of 2:14.8.
No other Hen won though
Bob Woerner set a school
record in the mile, being
clocked in 4:12.9. Woerner's
chief
adversary,
Jerry
Williams of Penn set a
fieldhouse record of 4:08.0 ,
breaking his own mark of
4:09.4 which he set last year
in Delaware's indoor meet
with Penn.
REGENTHALSTRONG
_ Bruce Regenthal recorded
his best triple jump ever, 42
feet 3 1/ 2 inches, in bowing to
Penn's Tom Flynn who went
44 1114. Regenthal and the
sophomore tight end of the
MAC football champ Hens,
Pat Walker, both cleared six
feet in the high jump while
placing third and second
respectively .
Walker and Regenthal each
picked up an additional third
place finish, Walker in the 60
yead
high
hurdles and
Regenthal in the long jump
where
Delaware's
Mike
Kalmer tabbed his best effort
in competition, 21 feet 11

one quarter of an inch to the
Quaker's Jim Huely.
In the shot put Bob
Morsch threw over fifty feet
interscholastically for the
first time. His toss of 50 feet
7 inches was good enough for
a second.
So the list goes, Steve
Winter continued his 13 foot

a second olace finish with
colleague Bob Mulvaney taking
third , while the mile relay

HEARTBREAKER
In the 152 lb . weight class Delaware's Jim Baxter was tied 4-4
with Mark Hazarah when with ten seconds remaining Hazarah
escaped to give him a 5-4 victory.
Jim Burns, a Blue Hen co-captain, lost a 9-8 decision to Warren
Coffin of Gettysburg. Coffin was an outstanding Wrestler at
Claymont High School. A seven second riding time advantage
gave Coffin a one point edge.
NO SIN
A tie is no sin however, and there were several bright spots in
the matches.
One was heavyweight Joe Shetzler's 10-6 victory over
previously undefeated Ron Emenheiser of Gettysburg.
Emenheiser lost to Shetzler last year in a freshmen meet when
Gettysburg was her~ and badly wanted a return match.
-The score was 16-13 in favor of Gettysburg going into the
heavyweight bout, so the outcome of the whole meet lay on
Shetzler's shoulders. His three points for a decision saved the
Hens from defeat.
HENS VICTORIES
Charlie Jarman pinned Gettysburg's Mark Popowin 6:45 in the
130 lb. division. Dick Rathmell, the other Delaware co-captain
decisioned Robert Browining 3-0 at 137 lbs. In the 160 class Dick
Morris decisioned Troff of Gettysburg 3-0.
The frosh wrestling team beat Gettysburg 22-11.
The varsity is now 7-1 -1. Tomorrow night both teams travel to
Lafayette for a meet. Lafayette is stronger than Gettysburg, and
the Hens have a tough match ahead.

Over Power West Chester
Blue Hen Five Finds The Range
By ALLEN RAICH
Sometimes it's best for the
players rather than the coach
to give the pre-game pep talk.
That was the strategy Coach
Dan Peterson employed last
Saturday night and his team
responded by notching their
first victory since January 15,
with a decisive 77-61 triumph
over West Chester on the
loser's court. The victory was
the Blue Hens seventh against
ten defeats while the Rams
dropped to 11-10.
"After I told them what to
expect from West Chester,"
Peterson said, " I had each of
the players give a talk , telling
what this game and the
remainder of the season
meant to them individually.
This really got them ready to
play. We've decided to make
a season of it from this point
at least. "
JACKSON DAZZLING
Steve Jackson obviously
got the message for he turned
in
his finest all-around
performance of the season for
the Hens. The 6-4 forward ,
dazzled the partisan crowd as
he pumped in 15 field goals
in 21 attempts and converted
6 of 7 free throws on his way
to a 36 point finish, the
hi ghe st
single
game
contribution by any Hen this
season.
"Steve undouhtedly played
his most outstanding game of
the season tonight," Peterson
remarked after the game. "He
did not force any shots and
was excellent on the offensive
boards."
DELAWARE DOMiNATES
Jackson picked up five of
his baskets on follow shots
after grabbing key rebounds
under the Hen hoop.
Delaware dominated the
contest from the opening
tapoff and played near
flawless basketball in the first
half. Jakson's jump shot in
the opening moments of the
game gave Delaware a 2-0
lead which the Rams never
reversed. In the first 5:43 the
Hens,
unfolding
their
strongest offensive display of
the 68-69 campaign, stormed
to a 21-10 edge. Eleven of
these 21 Delaware points
were the result of Jackson's
masterful shooting.
including six consecutive field
goals.
INSURMOUNTABLE LEAD
In the final twenty minutes
the Hens cooled off but by
then the game was out of
reach for the Rams, who
struggled in vain to cut t~e
deficit. With 17:16 on the
clock Jim Couch's jump shot
gave Delaware their lareest
lead of the· evening 51-32. In
the ensuing 3:15 however,
West Chester capitalized on a
succession of Hen turnovers

.500 Season Down The Drain
As ·Leopards Stun Swimmers
By JIM MELLOR
The
Delaware
Varsity
swimming team lost any
chance of having a winning
season, Saturday, when they
were
beaten 63-42
by
Lafayette at Carpenter Sports
Building Pool.
Lafayette
took charge
from the beginning by
winnine the 400 yard medley
relay to give them a 7-0 lead.
Dennis Carey gave the Hens 5
points by winning the 1000
yd. freestyle but it wasn't
enough to get them going.
John McDermott, the favorite
in the 200 freestyle for
Delaware, false started and
was disqualified from the
event. At the end of the 200
and
outscored
their
opponents 10-2. Nevertheless
they still found themselves on
the lean side of a 53-42 count
with 14:01 left. This was the
closest they came in the
second half.
From this
juncture both teams played
on even terms as the Hens
maintained
their
insurmountable margin.
Overall Delaware shot 29
for 59 from the field (49%)
and added 19 of 29 charity
tosses (66%) while gaining
their first MAC victory in
over a month. On the other
hand West Chester could
connect on only 24 of 67
field goal attempts (36%) and
half of their 26 free throws.
Delaware also held the edge
on the boards 49-33.
yds. freestyle, the Leopards
were leading 24-10 and were
not to be caught.
Dick Wieland, again won
his 200 yds. breaststroke, but
the meet was too far out of
reach. Then in the last event
the 400 freestyle, Lafayette
set a new pool record of
3:27.9.

SWIMMERS TAKE YOUR MARK, GET SET . . .the gun goes off and swimmers from Delaware and
Lafayette streak toward the water. Lafayette stopped the Blue Hens 63-42, last Saturday afternoon in
Carpenter Pool.
S taff Ph o t o b y S t eve Sc h eller
Coach Rawstrom is still
without a victory in his new
pool, but is now pointing for
Swarthmore and the M.A.C's.
An encouraging note was that
although the Hens lost, alot
of the times were faster then
in previous performances.
Mike Brennan summed up
the teams feelings by saying,
"We were up for the meet but
the first · part went so badly
that we never got started, for
example we lost the 200
individual medly and 100 free
style by three tenths of a
second, this hurts."
FROSH
Bob DeYoung and Ernie
Wakeman , both set freshman
swimming records, to help
the Delaware frosh to an easy
victory over Lafayette, 63-39,
Saturday at Carpenter Sports
Building pool.
De Young set both a pool
and freshman record in the
1000 yard freestyle with a
time of 11.03.2. In the 500
yard freestyle he also won
with a time of 5:21.7.
Wakeman, set a freshman
record in the 200 yard
backstroke, logging a time of
2:16.5.
On Saturday the Hens
travel to Philadelphia where
they meet Swarthmore at 4
p.m. This will be their last
meet before the M.A.C.
championships.
PETERSON PLEASED
"I was very pleased with
our play this evening,"
Peterson claimed. "Any time
you win an MAC game,
especially on the road, you
have nothing to gripe about.
"We'd have to win all four
of our remaining ballgames to
finish over 500" Peterson
added, "but if we play this
well the rest of the way we
are going to be pretty tough
to beat."

points
towards the
winning
effort,
while
teammate
Dave
Baker
controlled the boards and
contributed 10 points.
