Leader of SMC Cites 'Involvement'
Involvement and total commitment for the peace movement is the aim of the Student Mobilization Committee (SMC).
"An anti-war movement is an on-gong thing," Debbie Dewegran, Chicago graduate student and president of the American committee, says. "People must learn that student protest doesn't happen spontaneously."
SMC is concerned with active involvement now in the peace movement because it believes that a war in Iraq will be the spring of 1971 will be determined by what is or is not activated now. Miss Deegan says.
She says the recent indictment of the KKR State students were accused of abusing their students across the nation would move without an upsequence of prosecution.
KU to be Site for Convention
Brown, Hutchinson senior and newly elected regional coordinator for region six of the APhA, told the meeting of the KU APhA last night that every member of the convention will host the convention next fall.
The University of Kansas is the planned site for next year's regional conference of the American Association Assoc. Brown said.
According to Craig Cassidy, KCU's City senior and president of KU's APAh the money will be sour from the university.
The members of the meeting also passed several resolutions which included, one that soug funds so that students who are in becoming in a pharmacist but lack the money could do so.
The KU APhA next meeting will be held some time late in January.
S. Viets Push More Troops Into Cambodia
SAIGON (UPI)—Another contingent of South Vietnamese troops swept into Cambodia south of Saigon, where soldiers captured the largest artillerymunition cache of the enemy spokesmen said Wednesday.
The incursion into Cambodia by about 1,800 South Vietnamese infantry, armored cavalry and engineers from the 23rd Infantry Division, was the second part of a two-pronged assault announced by the US military.
The new operation was launched simultaneously Monday with troops from the South Vietnamese 22nd Infantry division but the announcement of the deployment will be held until Wednesday morning.
Spokesmen said that the 23rd Division column moved into a mountain hill country 50 miles south of Bo Kheo, where the companion division took up 85mm artillery shells earlier Tuesday. It was the largest such mission.
SMC's major concern now is affirming the need for consistent involvement in the peace movement. Miss Deaver can say
She added that unfortunately, when the need for active protest immediately evident, as it was in recent months, is dicitments, students become lax in participation because many of them do not sign a visible signs of the need for protest.
According to Miss Deegan, direct action and continual planning insure the success of any movement.
The indictments of last spring are good indicators that it is coming. The whole peace movement can become explosive, says Megan Dearen.
SMC is now working toward a massive peace movement for next spring, Miss Degan says, adding that SMC believes student work with the committee to aid in organizing this movement.
The local peace movement, along with the national peace movement, sponsored by the Coalition that is scheduled for December 6 at 1 p.m. will be discussed at 8:30 p.m. Thursday in the International Room of the Kansas Union. SMC will provide transportation and housing to those students interested in attending the December rally.

Youngberg said mailings and personal solicitations were used to encourage gifts to the endowment of the University in times of mailings and telephone solicitation causes the mailers to vary on comparable dates.

Clark Rips Hoover Over 'Jellyfish' Tag
NEW YORK (UPI)—Former Attorney General Ramsey Clark, FBI director J. Edgar Hoover's characterization of him as a man he said Tuesday he believed the FBI needed "new leadership."
Clark also called Hoover's arrest of the Communist party in 1968, and his director's assessment of the Panthers as "patiently insulted."
Clark made his remarks at a news conference at the Overseas Press Club, where he published of an interview Hoover granted the Washington Post. In the interview, Hoover was asked about a request Robert F. Kennedy when he was attorney general over FBI hiring changes and refused to change them.
However, Clark added, Hoover had "never been very terribly
Houvers's harsh criticism of Clark was believed prompted by Clark in America," which means of having "self-centered control" over the student Tuesday, Clark said "I must have Hoover is entitled to his rights."
"IF EVER THERE was a worse attorney general." Hoover said, "it was Ramsay Clark. You was going to flap on an issue." You was going to flap on an issue."

Questioned by reporters after the news conference, Clark said he the FBI needed "new information within and outside the agency."
Clark said Hoover's "pursuit of the Communist Party is an example of a terribly wasteful use of resources" and asked, "Do you have a terribly difficult for him to be certain civil rights investigations?"
He did not state whether he was reedering to Hoover and the prosecution. He asked Mitchell, who was warmly reedered by Hoover in the Post Office.

There was lengthy discussion about the grading system within the graduate programs. Several people questioned the necessity of grading when apparently only three points are used in evaluation.

It was continually stressed, however, that other factors are used to determine whether or not a student is admitted to the Graduate School. Letters of recommendation. Resumes. Record Examination scores and the candidate's own grades. Records listed as factors of consideration.
Most of the faculty which commented seemed to agree that grades as they are present in our school require evaluating a student for admission into the graduate school as a transcript of pass- or creeding.
The hearing had allegedly been billed as a discussion on grading as it effects the Graduate School both in admissions and within the course. Comments, however, ranged through the whole spectrum concerning the controversy of and instruction evaluation

There were others, however,
who thought that a "C" grade in
graduate work indicated below
average accomplishment.
In other words, he explained, if students are being evaluated on their comparative grading system or relation to other students, then a comparative grading system is used. Students are being evaluated on their competence level in relation to other students and the comparative grading system is "less valuable than a criterion-based grading system."
The grade 'C' functions
one, the quality of instruction which provides purpose to grading. Two, what is it that we're grading?"
"The real problem involved is not so much the grading system itself, but 1) the quality of instruction which provides purpose to grading, 2) what is it that we're grading?"

The major portion of the hearing digressed to comments concerning all areas of the so-called "common sense," were questions brought up above the difference between the current grading system and a passcode system which is intended to honors-pass-no credit
There was also some discussion about the function of a state university as opposed to a private university. Lujan suggested that

Attendance at the meeting was estimated at around 50, but that had dwindled considerably by its two-weekly one and two half hours later.
Luan said he was disappointed by the number in attendance for the event. People would turn out. He added that he was generally pleased though his faculty had attended and added that a committee of staff members had already gathered.
