Coeds Rebel Today You hear a lot these days about young men having th~ir say on university campuses all over the country. Civil rights, Vietman, drinking, curfews - no cause seem too large or trivial to go unheeded in the general stir of rebellion among college men today. Yet a little-known but no less remarkable fact is that many girls are rebelling also, perhaps even more -violent- ly. At the University of Pennsyl- vania a senior coed attacked a campus guard several weeks ago because he tried to arrest her for distributing a Socialist ma- gazine in a men's dormitory. At the University of New Mexico, rioting coeds hung their housing director in effegy because they felt he was "dictatorial." Many others have withdrawn from school to devote their full time to the movement. Though the goals of coed dem- onstrators and their methods aTe often similar to those of their male counterparts, the distaff rebellion bears a distinc- tion stamp. It derives from the fact that today's coed is less and less in . he shadow of the male student. Her feelings and goals are her own, not simply watered • down versions of male ambition. In addition, she ..is protesting being denied advan- tages that_ en enjoy. No long- er stuck in home economics and teacher trafoing courses, she feels as much like letting off steam as the boys do, and al- though her speaking up may as- tonish professors and male stu- dents, to the coed her conduct is as natural as growing up • "" and .as difficult. Jim _Nenscwitz his life. Lowell was a 1960 grad- uate of Tawas Area High School and a Sophomore at A 1 p e n a Community College. _Besides his parents, he -is sur~ vived by a brother, Walter of Toledo, two sisters, Mrs. Sylva Hunt of Anchorage, Alaska and Mrs. Ruth Bublitz of T a w a s City and his grandmothers, Mrs. Emma Long and Mrs. Walter Ulman of Tawas City. The funeral was held at 2 o'clock on March 14 at the Re• organized Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saints in Taw- as City. Burial wits in the Tawas City Cemetery. China's Strategy Worries Pen~ag:on Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara said tha<t some or ll of the · n ' mill .a y e- serves would be called to active duty if the Communists widen the war in Southeast Asia. While expressing deep concern about Red China's strategy in Asia and in underdeveloped na- tions, he did not specify whether he meant he expected the Chi- nese to actively enter the Viet- namese war. He did not say whether he believed a reserve callup would be necessary to - maintain the pace of combat in Vietnam. One senator said he had heard that as many as 600,000 m e n might be sent. There are more than 200,000 U. S. troups in Viet- nam now. The..United States ,has the mi- litary strength to destroy both Russia and China simultaneou& ]¥ in case it is..,attacked. Future U, S. striking power will be improved by building three more nuclear powered air- craft carriers, in addition to tfie Enterprise. McNamara said we are pre- pared to continue our military actions with the South Vietna- mese forces as long as the Communist keep fighting. Jim Nensewitz Soviet Spacedogs Again Orbit Earth Tw0 Russian spacedogs nam- ed Breeze and Blackie whirled into !Space in what Soviet offi- cials called a new step in man'a ventures into space. Tass, the Sdviet news, hinted the flight of the two male dogs could be as revolutionary as Yuri Gagarin'.s historic first manned space flight in 1961. · Laika, the first living creature shot into space, died aboard · a satellite, arousing the wrath of dog lovers in the We.sl Tass hinted that the experi- m ent might be preluclt: to aD- other space spectacular, _as .it an- nounced the safe ret.urn of the dogs. 1he Jungle ·Needs Cassius Cassius - Clay, -wodd iheavy- wefght ·boxing champiou, public- ally apologized to Illinois Gov- ernor Otto Kerner for his out- ward attaek about his draft de- ferment. With. his apology to Governor RAYMOND F, LOWRY Kerner, Clay may recaipture a few spec~ of public respect, but be surely coo't salv,age bis al- ready .tarnished image. Clay !has apparently lost h i • claim to a IY deferment. Gen- eral Hershey has found some liomage by lowering the pend- ing draft mental requirements.

The Student Forum The new students who are planning to go to college next fall may soon find out how hard they will have to work even be- fore they take their first term exam. Dr. H. Paul Kelly of the Cole lege Entrance Examination Board regional office in Austin,, Texas heads a project that is pooling information on thousands of students. Their high school ,. records, grades on aptitude ex- aminatin and records at col-- 1.ege will be put into the data pool. The data machine will give out equations that tells what can reasonably be expected from high school graduates of certain abilities and suc:cess in h i g ll school. _ _ The entering fJ'eshmen can get from a computer some guide for his study for the next four years. Dr. Kelly ,say it ~ give a broad idea of a student's pro,se pect for success. ·nr. Kelly predicts that in a f~w years,· with much more da- ta to do on the system will be 'quit~~ accurate. It will serve to guide schools in their grading system as well as students in their goals. D. Fitch Raymond F. Lowry, for 10 - years a member of the Alpena Community College faculty, died of a heart attack at 4:30 a.m. March 7, in Toledo General Hos- pital where he has· been enter- ed a:fil:er an initial attack Satur- day, March 5. He was to have been 70 years of age on March 21. Koreans Ready To Aid U.S. Mr. Lowry joined the faculty in the fall of 1954, third year of the Alpena College's operations, as an instructor of English. An• nually, he directed \Student dra- ma productions at the college. He was also faculty representa- tive to the legislative assembly of the Michigan Association of Junior Colleges. Mr. & Mrs. Lowry left Alpena in June o-n1964 to reside in Mau- mee, Ohio, a suburb of Toledo. The United States sent V i c e President Hubert H. H!'mphrey t.o Seoul to counsel with t h e South Korean leaders a b o u t building their forces .in Vietnam. The South Korean officials were reported preparing a b i l il that would 19/utlhorize the move. There now are more than 20,• 000 Korean soldiers and Marines in Vietnam.; the second Largest of all the United States Allies. The South Koreans will send an- other 20,000 to 11he conBid with- .in the next 6 montJhs. Vice President Humphery heard Pres.ident Ferdin.and Mair-, cos of Manila announce that the Philippine Congress would okay his plan to .ship 2,000 engi.neer troops to Vietnam. He also s"iated he would send combat troo]\S as well. This should be a pleasing word oo all American students_ be- cause this means a cutdown on the draft for the United States. D.
