you that you are not a racist,
tell him he is a liar.
The masses of uniformed police maintained order and all pre-game demonstrations were peaceful.
The actual events of Saturday in Syracuse were relatively mild in comparison to prior fears of city and university officials. The Student Association (SU student government body) and the Black Student Union, with mutual feelings of dissent towards the suspension of the eight black football players, busily distributed leaflets throughout the morning urging students to meet at 11 a.m. on the "Quad" (a mall-like area in the center of the campus) to organize the pregame demonstrations.
The fact that the black players had been reinstated to the team apparently made no difference. It was the manner they were reinstated and the prevailing attitudes of the white players, coaches and administration that aggravated the reactions.
The racial situation has led to additional campus unrest. Chancellor John E. Corbally is surrounded by growing opposition. The alumni are at odds with him, first because he offered students last spring the same series of alternatives and options KU students were offered, and now because of his handling of the racial problem.
The football team, coaching staff and their supporters are unhappy with him because he forced coach Ben Schwartzwalder to reinstate the black
players that nobody wanted And finally the students are unhappy with him because he carefully avoided placing various student leaders on a committee designed to resolve the university's racial differences.
Some students are bitter, including Student Association President Dennis DeSnoo.
"I take these obvious absentees as a slap on the wrist for not supporting his (Corbally's) earlier decisions," De Snoo said Saturday morning. He further predicted that the school's problems have just begun.
Sam Hemingway, managing editor of the Daily Orange (a school newspaper), agreed with DeSnoo but further warned that student groups, such as the Student Association and the Black Student Union, would form coalitions in organized opposition to Corbally.
Bill Leogrande, chairman of the editorial board of the Daily Orange, said he thought a split would occur in the student body. But he said it would not be a black and white split but rather the apathetic students against the "involved" students.
Although race is the current issue, student leaders are characterized by a close fraternizing between blacks and whites. Both are concerned with joint efforts against Ben Schwartzwalder and Cancellor Corbally.
The situation at Syracuse is not good from anyone's standpoint. All efforts to date to reconcile differences have
failed and in the view of student leaders, the end is not in sight.
In the meantime, Schwartzwalder and Corbally, at odds with each other as well as with numerous other university factions, attempt to carry on their normal routines in the midst of the abnormal environment.
HOPE Nominees To Be Announced At Senior Coffee
Clark Bricker, professor of chemistry and Dick Wintermote, director of the KU Alumni Association, will speak at the Senior Class Coffee Oct. 15.
Linda Westphal, Wichita senior and chairman of the coffee committee, said the coffee would begin at 1:30 in Hoch Auditorium.
She said the program would include the distribution of senior regalia and the announcement of the five finalist for the 1970 HOPE Award.
The final vote for the HOPE Award, which will be presented at the Homecoming football game Oct. 24, will be taken at the coffee.
Bricker received the award last year.
Jim Nichols, senior class president from Hiawatha, will review some of the proposed projects planned for the class of '71, Miss Westphal said.
Refreshments will be served after the short program. Seniors who have not paid their class dues may pay them at the coffee and pick up the regalia.
