University of Southern California DAILY « TROJAN LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1968, VOL. LX, NO. 13 TICKETS ON SALE FOR JONI MITCHELL CONCERT Ticket order blanks for tomorrow . night's concert at Bovard Auditorium featuring Joni Mitchell, the folk singer from Canada, may be obtained at the Student Activities Center or at Bovard for $3. $2, or $1.50. The concert is the first ASSC-sponsored concert of the school year. Miss Mitchell will be making her first major appearance since a recent European tour. She made her Los Angeles debut at the Troubador in June. Muskie urges bombing halt; will speak here tomorrow By BILL DICKE City editor Sen. Edmund S. Muskie, Democratic vice-presidential candidate, sent a personal letter to President Lyndon Johnson several months ago urging a halt to the bombing in Vietnam, one of the candidate’s aides said yesterday. The letter was never made public, he saiti. The aide, Shepard Lee, finance chairman of the Democratic party in Maine, said, “He didn’t want it made public then because he wasn’t looking for publicity. He just felt he had to make his personal convictions known.” Lee was on campus making arrangements for Muskie’s speech here tomorrow at noon in Bovard Auditorium. The aide was reluctant to have the story made Dublic but emphasized that Muskie was the first of the four regular party candidates in the top race to advise risking a halt in bombing. Lee also said Muskie was the most dovish of the four candidates. “He is a realist with a very strong ideological base,” Lee said. “He was chosen strictly for ability and Jsecause he is a new type of politician.” Muskie is in the same tradition as the late President John F. Kennedy and Sen. Eugene McCarthy, Lee continued. He noted that Muskie and McCarthy were elected to the Senate in the same year and are close friends. “In 1964 when Sen. McCarthy thought he was the choice for vice-president and then didn’t get it, Sen. Muskie and his wife were the ones to console him.” he said. Lee also noted that Sen. Edward Kennedy was the principal speaker at a fund-raising dinner for Muskie in Maine. Sen. Muskie is scheduled to arrive at Hollywood-Burbank Airport tonight at 8:15 p.m. He will tape two television shows, meet community leaders and speak at California Western University in San Diego while in the area. SEN. EDMUND MUSKIE Hoover Project to create Mexican troops open fire on demonstrators By J. PAUL WYATT United Press International MEXICO CITY—Mexican army troops yesterday penned 10,000 demonstrating students inside a public square, and raked them with machinegun fire that killed at least seven persons and wounded eight others. The students and troops boiled out of the square and pitched a 20-square block area into a state of siege. Hysteria broke out in the crowd cooped up by encircling infantrymen and armored units. Men, women and children were trampled to the ground as the mob fought to escape the area and troops advanced firing bursts of machinegun fire. Troops cordoned off the massive Tlatelolco housing project alongside the “three cultures square,” 15 miles from the Olympic Village, and ordered its thousands of residents into the streets. Sniper fire blazed down at troops firing back from prone positions outside the project. Other troops advanced with fixed bayonets and machineguns through a 20-square block area around the project, attempting to cordon it off and setting the neighborhood under a state of siege.-Sniper fire, some of it evidently originating from sympathetic residents, crackled hours after the initial 6 p.m. incident. Armored car machineguns chattered back. Student bands roved through neighborhood adjoining the siege area, attacking and burning trolleys. The students had gathered in the square, next to the project which has been a hotspot in the recent student-police clashes, to pledge renewed militance in their demands for government reforms and then march on the troop-occupied polytechnic institute. But the troops cordoned them into the square to stop the march and suddenly opened fire when a helicopter dropped a signal flare. The presidential palace issued a statement saying the students opened fire first. This reporter, who was at the scene and splattered with blood from a bystander when the first shots were fired did not see any students firing. Leftwing leaders have been promoting student demonstrations for the past two months. At least seven were killed and scores injured last week in gunbattles between students, police and troops that followed the occupation of National University, site of most Olympic contests. Troops evacuated National University only two ftey* ago and government spokesmen were hopeful the city would be spared further violence during the Olympics. But militant leaders pledged last night to throw troops out of the occupied Polytechnic University as well. A high ranking official of the International Olympic Committee said the renewed rioting could lead to the cancellation of the forthcoming games, at the recommendation of the IOC executive committee. 93 achieve Engineering Dean’s List Eighteen graduate and 10 undergraduate students topped the School of Engineering Dean’s List with a 4.0 GPA for the spring semester, 1968. The 18 graduate students with a 4.0 were David E. Casteel, Iraj Ersaghi, Herbert S. Fong, Robert H. Foulkes, Jr., Chary I L. Frazee, David H. Frederick, Joseph A. Giuliano, Anand R. Gokhale, Joseph E. Green, John P. Isaacs, Chester J. Kolar, Mehran Lashkari, Thomas E. Levy, Alexander C. Liang, Marshall S. Michaelian, Seymour I. Schwarxz, Byron W. Secoy and James R. Williamson. The 10 undergraduate students with a 4.0 average were Steven M. Baldwin, Glen R. Cass, Daniel R. Garretson, John E. Hoffman, Jerome D. Nourse, Alan H. Reid, Jonathan T. Salmon, Gregory P. Starr, Robert G. Stevens and Ronald T. Tanabe. Sixty-five students on the graduate and undergraduate levels achieved a 3.5 or better. Undergraduate students are eligible for the School of Engineering Dean's List if they have a 3.5 average or better with a total of 12 or more units, while graduate students must maintain at least a 3.5 average while maintaining 8 or more units. The graduate students with a 3.5 average or better are Neil D. Adams, Laurence D. Armi, Moiz M. E. Beguwala, Gordon H. Biescar, Lorin Edgar Blewett, John W. Braker, Richard J. Bucolo, David L.

Stevens and Cepus Tsui. life out of muddy rubble “The Community Redevelopment Agency has a policy, on which we concur, that states that if an individual has difficulty in getting relocated he is not to be disrupted in his move,” he said. “This takes time. However, now that work has begun, most of the land between McClintock and Vermont should be cleared by the end of this year.” The entire project, including the land adjacent to the campus, will probably be concluded within three years, he said. “I am being the eternal optimist,” he added. “This prediction is based on what we hope will be an accelerated program here.” The lack of acceleration in the project, because of the deliberation needed in acquiring the land and working through the agency, has hurt USC’s own plans, Lazzaro said. “However, the university has taken the position that its relationship with the community is every bit as important as the pursuit of its own objectives,” he said. This, in a sense, is costly to us in terms of time and schedule, but it is, nevertheless, very important that we take this position.” The Community Redevelopment Agency, headed by Richard Mitchell, is the key unit in the project. It is the agency, not the university, that is responsible for acquiring the property, relocating the people, and clearing the land. The university then buys the land it needs from the agency as cleared acreage. “The university has rights of condemnation,” Lazzaro said. “We could have, on our own, acquired the land we need, without the assistance of any agency. But it is Dr. Topping’s policy that we are not only to take care of ourselves, but we are to help the community as well. That is why we are doing it this way.” The agency is advised by the Hoover Urban Renewal Advisory Committee (HURAC) which is made up of members of the community. Several members of the university’s staff and faculty who live in the area, are on the committee. The first university use of the land opened up by the redevelopment project will be for parking lots, Lazzaro said. Then, as there .is need for further construction, the space will be used for buildings and for relocation of facilities displaced by construction within the existing campus. By MIKE PARFIT Editor Down on 36th Place near McClintock Avenue there is a smashed up pile of wood, tarpaper and old bricks that used to be a house. It was left there in the mud yesterday by a large bulldozer and it will be removed today, leaving only the basic foundation for construction—earth. There are a lot of empty fields of raw earth down at that edge of the campus waiting for the university to grow out onto them. They and the broken lumber that gets carted away every day symbolize the midway point in urban renewal—the point at which the old is gone and the new has yet to be built. The Hoover Project, the title of the area’s urban renewal effort, will add to the campus some 57 acres. 9 of which the university already owns. It will also renovate a large chunk of the surrounding territory to include a shopping center, a low-cost housing project and a new motel and hotel area. Until recently most of the work done on the Hoover Project has been concerned with acquiring land and resettling the people who previously lived on the property. Only now, some nine years after the project was initiated, is there visible evidence of activity. Anthony Lazzaro, director of campus development, explained in an interview yesterday why the work of acquiring land for such a project takes so much time. Registration begins for Experimental College tomorrow By KEITH MacBARRON Student registration for the Experimental College will begin tomorrow and last until Oct. 11 at a booth in front of Tommy Trojan. A schedule of the classes and class descriptions will be available at the booth. Classes will begin Oct. 14, and last until Dec. 18. The Experimental College began at USC last year to give students and teachers the opportunity to experiment with education. Classes are without tuition, grades or supervision. No salaries are paid. Steve Foldes. chairman of the college, said, “Thus education proceeds without the traditional hang-ups of the formal university. The students and teachers gather to participate in a learning experience, free from the push of grades or the pull of professional objectives.” Most of the 39 classes offered this semester go beyond the curriculum restrictions of the formal university. One class on race relations will be taught by Joseph Smith Jr., a member of the Black Panthers. A course on love will be taught by Dr. Leo Buscaglia. assistant professor of education. This class will cover the philosophical, psychological, and sociological aspects of love and its relevance to the individual in our culture. A television workshop, a few dancing and body sensitivity classes, and a number of creative writing classes are also offered. Six of the courses offered were described by Foldes as living-group classes. He said they will resemble group therapy sessions, and are to be held at various sororities. The sororities chose the classes by popular vote. Everyone is invited to register for these classes. One of the experimental courses taught last year is now being offered for credit as part of the regular university curriculum. The course, community encounter program, is taught by Roland (Happy) Trope, a senior at USC. Foldes said, “One of the goals for coming semesters is to work some more of the experimental classes into the regular curriculum for credit. We hope these classes will retain at least their general topics and basic formats.” Bilheimer elected to fill position on Board of Trustees Stephen C. Bilheimer, president-elect of the General Alumni Association, was elected to a three-year term as one of three alumni members of the Board of Trustees. Bilheimer, chairman and chief executive officer of Silverwoods, succeeds Winston R. Fuller of San Marino, whose term on the board has expired. Other alumni trustees are Raymond C. Sparling, alumni association president, and Mrs. Grant B. Cooper, past president. Bilheimer is cochairman of the Alumni Fund, president of the Central City Association and a director of the California Museum of Science and Industry. He is a member of Commerce Associates, a support group for the USC School of Business Administration and he is also a member of the Board of Councilors of the Business School. Bilheimer is a director of the California Federal Savings and Loan Association and of the hospital of the Good Samaritan Medical Center and is a vice-president of Town Hall of Los Angeles. He holds the Outstanding Alumnus Award from the School of Business Administration and a Service Award from the General Alumni Association. Folk artist to sing at Cheshire Cat Folksinger Mary McCaslin will headline three consecutive shows tomorrow night at the Cheshire Cat Coffee House, the newly-revitalized folk club in the basement of the University Methodist Church, located at 817 W. 34th St. After turn-away crowds at two shows last week, the Cat will offer performances at 8:30, 10 and 11:30 p.m., according to Steve Milner, the group’s president. “We seated nearly 100 at the first show Friday and we turned away at least 80 more,” Milner said. “It was obvious after we played to a packed house for the second show that something would have to be done.” Miss McCaslin lends her own style and arrangements to traditional and contemporary ballads. Her single for Capitol Records, “Rain”, released last year, made the top 40 charts in many parts of the nation. She has played in such clubs as the Troubador, Ash Grove, Golden Bear. Mecca, Paradox and Glendale Ice House in the Los Angeles area and the Heritage and Candy Company in San Diego. Joining her on stage will be Tony and Gloria, a brother-sister singing duo from Orange County, who appeared at Anaheim’s Melodyland Theater last weekend, and Ross Bilotta. Bilotta brings his combo to the Cheshire Cat to perform his specialty, rock ballads of the 1950’s. Admission for this Friday’s three shows will be a 50-cent donation at the door.
