'Holocaust' panel ...
From page one
war would end before the six months were up.
Several persons in the audience were crying softly when Eedalbafinished his thesis.
BONNIE RITTER, director of Afirmative Action and moderator of the discussion, asked the other three members of the committee to estimate the accuracy of the measure "Holocaust."
Charles Sidman, chairman of the department of history, who teaches a course on Hitler, said the program was basically accurate.
"How can you speak about the unspeakable?" he said. "How can you include all the deeds that make up history? Although there were small inaccuracies in time of a few events, they did not distract from the basic truth of what happened."
Frances Horowitz, associate dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, said she had decided not to be a part of the panel after agreeing to participate, but had changed her mind again after seeing "Holocaust" and discovering the University intended to open an exhibit of Nazi memorabilia.
"The program is meaningless unless it makes people more sensitive," she said. "I'm shocked the program and the Passover bad no effect on the display's opening."
I "WAS SHATTERED when I read the University was opening the display and I felt betrayed by people on this campus," she said. "How is it possible to have that level of ingenuity after 'Holocaust' has just been on and right before Passover."
Patsy Kemphron, Lawrence graduate student, said anti-Semitism had to be viewed in its historical place to understand the program.

should make an impression on people.
THE PANELISTS ANSWERED few questions because members of the audience used the remaining time to express opinions and debate issues among themselves.
"Anti-Semitism is a political and economic strategy that keeps power in the hands of those who have it," she said. "It has a very old history and still survives."
Ritter cut off the discussion after about
$a_{n}$ half hour.
"This was not intended to be a fun
thought," she said. "I thought we got
something out of it, though."
