33 fraternity members get shots to prevent hepatitis
Thirty-three members of Chi Phi fraternity received gamma globulin shots last Wednesday as a preventative measure after one fraternitv member, who works in the kitchen, contracted hepatitis.
The shots were given to prevent anv possibility of an epidemic occurring, said Dr. Allan Ebbin, director of the Student Health Center.
"We felt it would be a good idea because he was involved with food," Ebbin said.
Jon Zucker, a member of the fraternity, said the students learned early last week that the student had hepatitis. Zucker said the student's doctor recommended that all those living in the fraternitv house, in addition to other friends and family who had been in contact with the student, receive shots.
Everyone who received the shots last week is still in good health, according to Zucker. He said thev were not placed under observation and are not required to report back to the health center.

GUERILLA VISITS CAMPUS
Namibian demands freedom
By Marc Brown
Two former enemies, one a former soldier in the white South African armv, the other a member of an African guerrilla group, joined forces Monday afternoon to address students on Namibia's struggle for independence.
Namibia is a territory in southwest Africa administered by the South African government. The apartheid policy that separates blacks and whites in all phases of South African life is just as strong in Namibia.
Michael Morgan and Ellen Musialela have toured the United States trying to win support for their efforts to achieve Namibian independence — efforts which some have called terrorist activities.
Morgan was a member of the South African Defense Force but in 1977, while stationed in a war zone in northern Namibia, saw what he called "atrocities committed bv the South Africans.
"It is clear that the white minority implements violence and brutality to maintain the apartheid regime," Morgan said.
"On an almost weekly basis, the South African army, operating from bases in Namibia, crosses into Zambia and Angola, terrorizing and brutalizing Namibian refugees," Morgan said.
Disenchanted and sickened, Morgan deserted the force in 1977 and joined the South African Military Refugee Aid Fund, a group which opposes conscription in South Africa.
"The onlv humane action I could take was to desert," Morgan said.
Like many other white South Africans, Morgan objected to serving the aims of an apartheid system. All white male South African men are required to serve a year in the army. There is no conscientious objector status.	(Continued on page 2)
Soviet invasion ‘doubtful,’ says Polish dissident
Action would dash detente, SALT II hopes
By Kathy McDonald
Assistant City Editor
Just days prior to Russia's warning that Poland must speedily resolve its internal disorder or face military intervention, a Polish dissident speaking to a university political science class said a Soviet armed invasion is "doubtful."
"Ninety-eight percent is a bluff by the Soviets, but if the other two percent is true, it's like swallowing a time bomb," said Tadeusc Walen-dowski, 36, who was forced to leave Poland last year.
"The price (of invasion) is too high Any hopes for success at the Helsinki detente talks or for SALT II would be destroyed if the Soviets invaded Poland," he said. "And Soviet hopes of
dividing the United States and Western Europe would be shot."
An invasion would only unite the rest of the free world against the Soviet Union, he said. Another pragmatic reason he cited is Poland’s S20 billion debt to the United States and other countries. If the Kremlin moved Russian troops into Polish territory, it would have to assume responsibility for the debt.
The Soviet Union made the threat Sunday, drawing parallels between the present labor unrest in Poland and the events that led to Soviet intervention in Czechoslovakia in 1^68.
Anti-Communist forces "have not given up their subversive activities against the socialist states," a report from Tass, the official Soviet news
agency, said. Walendowski said this mention of antisocialist forces is propaganda, and that what exactly these forces are has never been clearly defined.
He said the recent Polish strikes have been "an authentic mass movement, with no outside help.
"Any Soviet propaganda about big Western help is pure invention/' Walendowski said. 'There was some money sent to the workers, but not a significant amount.
"After the events which occurred in August, the Western position was cautious. U.S. Secretary of State Edmund Muskie even urged the workers not to push too far."
Walendowski said that although press coverage of the strikes has been
"pretty good, complete and sympathetic to the right side of the conflict," there has been a problem with Western perceptions of the Polish events.
"There are those who consider Poland a part of the Soviet Union, and they don't want to help it because they don’t want to help the Soviet Union.
They don't realize that the Poles are a good Western ally. The Poles have better feelings toward America than France or England do.
"They want a Western-like democracy. They want assistance for the nation and not for the inefficient Polish government."
Walendowski said the political cri-(Coniinued on page 9)
