The Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) finally officially replied to a letter sent to them by Dr. Paul A. Bloland, dean of students, Oct. 28.
The reply was hand delivered to Dean Bloland two minutes before his deadline of 5 p.m. Friday.
Dean Bloland said he would comment on the reply today, after he had a chance to study the letter.
The dean’s letter to SDS concerned an alleged violation of the speaker’s policy in regard to the David Harris speech on Oct. 21. According to the letter, the speech was originally scheduled to take place in the patio behind the Student Activities Center. Instead, Harris spoke in Alumni Park, which Bloland said “constituted a clear violation.”
Bloland said that the violation should be reviewed and gave SDS the choice of being heard in the ASSC student court or in an administrative hearing in his office.
Rather than replying directly to Dean Bloland, SDS decided to give their reply, together with Bloland’s original letter, to the Daily Trojan for publication.
The letter was extensively quoted in last Friday’s paper. At that time, Bloland was not available for comment.
When shown the SDS letter early Friday afternoon by a Daily Trojan reporter, the dean, somewhat puzzled,
NO ARRESTS IN ROW BONFIRE
The two students taken into custody Thursday night were not booked, police said Friday. The students had been apprehended following a bonfire on the Row at the intersection of 28th Street and University Avenue.
replied that he had never seen it before.
His only comment was: “I have not yet received an official reply from the SDS. I cannot comment on a communication I have received solely through the Daily Trojan.”
He added that it was only 3:30 p.m. and SDS still had an hour and a half to reply. He was then asked what would happen if the organization didn’t reply. He answered, “I am not going to speculate.”
When told of Bloland’s comments, Larry Kulesza, cochairman of SDS, appeared somewhat concerned, and soon decided that he better reply to Dean Bloland.
The letter was returned to Kulesza. who went to Dean Bloland’s office, signed the letter, and gave it to him.
“I will comment on it as soon as I have had an opportunity to study it,” Bloland then replied with a smile on his face.
NO SONG GIRLS TIL SATURDAY
The song girls will make their debut on the football field at Saturday's game with Oregon State in the Coliseum.
A story in Friday's Daily Trojan stated incorrectly that the women would perform at the Cal game.
At the Oregon State half-time show, "The Old and the New," the song girls will perform to the song "Driver." Warren Bass, the national champion baton twirler, will perform to 'This Could Be the Start of Something Big."

Campus unrest dims issue, S.F. prof says
Compiled from newswires
While unrest continued at two California colleges Friday, a professor at one of them said that such unrest has clouded the underlying issue of need for increased higher education facilities.
Dr. Tom Lantos of San Francisco State College blamed campus disorders for the defeat of the $250 million higher education bond issue in last Tuesday’s election.
Campus unrest “completely clouded the underlying issue that there is a surge of qualified high school graduates anxious and eager to get into institutions of higher learning.” he said.
Dr. Lantos, economic consultant to the California Teachers Association, was questioned by newsmen during a meeting of the CTA’s state council of education at the Biltmore Hotel.
Meanwhile, at San Francisco State College, sporadic incidents of violence broke out on the third day of a student strike.
Four Negroes, including a woman, were arrested.
The incidents occurred as the
strike, started by Negro students and joined by whites, appeared to be losing its impetus.
The strike was called by the Black Student Union (BSU) over the suspension of an English instructor, George M. Murray.
The BSU also made news at San Fernando Valley State College. The BSU president of that campus accused of participating in last Monday’s seizure of the college’s administration building, returned to the campus to ask for support from student and faculty members.
Archie Chatman, the local BSU president, requested financial aid for the legal defense of arrested members of the BSU and Students for a Democratic Society (SDS).
Charges against 24 students arrested on felony complaints included kidnapping, assault, false imprisonment, burglary and robbery.
Misdemeanor complaints were issued against nine.
The 33 students were arraigned yesterday and then released from jail
following posting of $31,000 bail by an unknown organization.
Larry Kulesza, cochairman of SDS (above), and an unidentified woman participate in paint-in at noon Friday. Comments inscribed on Childs Way included "Alumni we love you we dig your $$$" and "Alumni, send your boys to Vietnam—care enough to send the very best."

Students too apathetic to vote, ASSC poll show
Students failed to vote in the last ASSC elections, either because they didn’t have enough ime or they weren’t interested in student government, a poll has revealed.
The poll, conducted by the Election Commission, based its results on 600 completed returns.
In general, the results indicated student apathy, interest in outside politics only, and a lack of knowledge about the function of student government.
Freshmen, no matter where they lived, claimed not to have voted because of lack of time or lack of knowledge of candidates. Most sophomores said they had little free time, and most of the seniors and graduate students polled said they were “not interested in student government” or “didn’t know anyone running.”
The poll indicated that independent freshmen were the least likely to vote. The reasons for not voting, according to affiliation, were: Independent and Greek freshmen: Not enough time; upper division independents: Not interested in student government; and upper division Greeks: Not enough time.
The poll also showed that the most voters were enrolled in the schools of Business, Political Science and International Relations, Dentistry, Performing Arts and pre-med majors.
“The results of this poll are general,” said Pat Lawless, elections commissioner, “but they do show the problem areas.”
