Voi. 44, No^r Humphrey’s Niece: We ‘Need’ HHH By ROBERTO FABRICIO Hurricane Editor Hubert Humphrey’s niece, 19-year-old Anne Louise Howard came to the University of Miami campus Saturday and put down her uncle’s Vietnam policies. “I believe the present policies will only extend the war,” she said and trying to correct herself added. “I am sure my uncle would charge Food Drive For Spirit By CHARLOTTE CASSORLA Horricano Staff Writer Stop wondering . . , the secret is finally out. This year’s Spirit Week Mystery Event will be a collection of canned foods to be distributed to needy families on Thanksgiving. “ ‘Hurricane Compendium’ (Mystery Event) is the heaviest weighted event of Spirit Week," said Marv Langsam, Spirit Week chairman. “Through the project and with the cooperation of the USG Dept, of Community Affairs, it is believed that the Mystery Event will help alleviate one of our community's problems.” Every organization entering the event can earn 25 points, and the group which Continued on P. 2 Registration Over Oct. 5 If you’re a bona fide Florida resident, a U.S. citizen, and over 21, you have until October 5th to register to vote. According to W. J. Miller, v assistant Supervisor of Elections, a bona fide Florida resident" is a person who has continually resided in the state for on*1 full year. This does not apply to student "out-of-staters”. If your permanent address is In another state you should write to the voter registration bureau of your home county requesting an absentee ballot. Voter registration is being held at Coral Gables City hall and 1351 N.W. 12 Street, room 147; Mon. through Sat. from 8:30 a.m. until 5 p.m. and 8:30 a.m. until 9 p.m. Tuesday and Thursday. much of it if he were elected president." “I could not support him on some of his Vietnam stands, but I don’t have all the information that he has available,” she said hesitantly with two traveling “advisers” sternly looking over her shoulders. Looking more like a Mc-C a r t h y supporter than HHH’s niece, she said she doubted the morality of the war and of the current draft laws which her uncle supports. Campaigning for Humphrey on weekends while attending Boston University, Miss Howard said in an exclusive interview with the HURRICANE that deep down she has her disagreements with her uncle’s policies. “I would end the draft for the 17 and 18-year-old immediately and would do over much of the draft law,” she added. She called her uncle a progressive liberal, and when asked how he would fair with Florida Voters, she said, "I think he is doing quite well,” but added “Maybe that’s why I’m down here.” Seat Debate By VICTOR FISCHER Hurrictn* Government Editor The issue of Bruce O’Boyle’s status on the USG Council was resolved when the Board of Review, in its first meeting of the year, denied his appeal to be seated as sophomore class representative. Prior to its decision regarding O’Boyle’s status, the Board elected Wayne Silver, one of the University’s top debaters, as chairman for the coming year. The Board’s meeting followed a sharply contested debate in the USG Council over whether or not O’Boyle should be permitted to assume his duties on it. During the roll call at the beginning of the Council meeting, O’Boyle had taken his seat. However, when his name was not called, Jim Yasser initiated a one and one half hour debate over USG President Mike Abrams’ decision not to recognize O’Boyle, and whether O’Boyle failed to maintain the quality point average necessary for Council membership. In recognizing the conflict Continued on P. 2 Tuesday, October 1, 1968 First President’s Council Meeting Ban On Dixie, Spirit Phone: mrsBKi OCT-2 196$ By FRANK MURRAY Hurricane Assistant Mtnaiin* Editor The banning of ‘Dixie’ by President Stanford, Spirit Week, and the no-cut and pass-fail systems were the major issues discussed at the first President’s Council Meeting attended by leaders of UM student organizations. USG President Mike Abrams expressed his feelings about Dr. Stanford’s decision in a letter sent to the President. Editors Confer on Common Problems ... f-r, Sleicarl, Thompson, Ah rams. Hart, Fahricio, McGinnes, /Vagin Dade College Editors , Discuss Group Cooperation The editors of newspapers in four Dade County colleges met here Saturday in what seemed to spell the formation of an association of county college editors. From student activism to school control over the different publications, the issues discussed included the attitude of administrators towards the student press, staff organization and finances. The possibility of joint seminars, intra-campus news service and periodic conferences were suggested by the different editors, and a definite organizational status was foreseen for the next meeting, to be held sometime in November. Karla McGinnes, editor of the Barry Angelicus, Ken Stewart, of the Miami-Dade Junior College North campus Falcon Times, Jerry Hart, of the Dade South Catalyst and Roberto Fabricio of the Hurricane, were joined by staff members of each publication in a four hour meeting. The editors of Florida Memorial College and of Bis-cayne College were invited but could not attend. Stewart pointed out what seemed to be a tight control over his staff by an administration appointed advisor. “Our consistently WASP editorial policy certainly isn’t because of me," he said. The editors agreed on meeting twice before the semester is over. Barry College invited the other editors to hold the next meeting at their Miami Shores campus. In the first part of the meeting the different organizations were discussed, the press runs and different technical aspects of putting out the papers. The Catalyst has a weekly press run of 4,500—5,000 for the Falcon Times and 1,500 for the Angelicus. The Hurricane has a press run of 11,000 Tuesdays and Fridays. Barry College came out on top as far as lack of activism when some of the issues on the different campuses were discussed. “We don’t have many problems with people trying to avoid the draft,” said Karla McGinnes. She added that most of the issues at Barry center around controversy over student government attitudes toward the press. “They try to avoid talking to us until things are of an official nature,” she said, “because they fear the power of the press.” Jerry Hart pointed out that at Miami-Dade South two groups have tried to start activism on campus, the Golden Key, a “mostly Black” group and an “SDS associated group.” Ken Stewart said that at Miami-Dade North the issues would most likely be centered this year around the formation of two left wing groups. “The fraternities and sororities are about 99.9 per cent white and everyone resents that,” he added. “That will also be an issue.” He said, “I feel that I must state my complete unhappiness over the evolvement of the decision to prohibit the band from playing “Dixie.” Undergraduate Student Government was not aware of the decision until Friday afternoon when they were barraged with student complaints. “I believe this decision clearly called for consultation with the officers of Undergraduate Student Government." Abrams said. Abrams stated at the Council Meeting that although he disagreed with the way in which the decision was made, “USG stands with President Stanford in not allowing the band to play Dixie at public meetings.” Other members of the Council agreed with Abrams, although some also felt that the decision was unjust. Several student leaders felt that "Dixie” was a proud traditional song and expressed surprise that the black students were offended by it. Union Director Chester Byrd addressed the meeting by saying, “Dr. Stanford was quite true in most of the things he said ... I concur with his decision." “The playing of Dixie, I feel, has no place in this kind of society,” he said. “For many of the students at Miami it is offensive. It is offensive to me.” Harold Long, President of UBS, also expressed surprise at Dr. Stanford’s decision. “He should have consulted at least some groups on campus," he said. Long added Mat he agreed with the decision one-hundred percent, but the UBS did not ask Dr. Stanford to stop playing “Dixie.” In his letter to President Stanford, Abrams noted, “I am also disturbed that the band had to receive the brunt of the blame which included having beer cans thrown at them during the game and being booed viciously.” A band representative attended the Council and asked that students please refrain Continued on P. 2
