'No sex orgies,' student asserts
PARK CITY, Utah (UPI)—Western governors have been assured by a university administrator and a student leader that modern dormitory life does not automatically lead young coeds into "sex orgies."
"Everyone assumes when two students of the opposite sex get together they're automatically going to jump right into bed—that's just not true," said Randy Dryer, 21, student body president-elect of the University of Utah.
Dryer replied to a question from Idaho Gov. Don Samuelson, who wondered whether the parent would feel "secure" in allowing a daughter to visit a boys' dormitory.

Dryer told the governors they worry too much about campus speakers. He said radical Jerry Rubin recently spoke on the Utah campus and the students regarded him "as a clown. They laughed at him."
mountains 35 miles east of Salt Lake City listened intently and participated freely in a wide open discussion on campus unrest.
Midwestern College fighting to survive
Dryer said the whole philosophy of politics of confrontation "is that by breaking the law you get a lot of publicity" and dramatize a cause.
"Breaking the law will only bring this country to anarchy and a police state." responded Gov. Forrest H. Anderson of Montana. "Somehow or other I think you can get us fellows to listen without breaking the law."
DENISON, Iowa (UPI)—Students of Midwestern College manned a booth at a recent Iowa Democratic party convention and urged delegates to "contribute your pennies for Denison."
Air pollution fund gets OK in House
WASHINGTON (UPI) — The House has approved 374 to 1 a bill to pull together the flagging federal air clean up program and clamp new antipollution controls on automobiles, industries and airplanes.
The legislation, which conformed in many respects to recommendations of the Nixon administration, would for the first time authorize the federal government to set national standards of air purity and step in if states failed to enforce them.
Other provisions would require assembly line spot checks of whether auto exhaust cleaners were working up to par and empower the Health Education and Welfare secretary to outlaw fuel additives such as lead if they were proved a health hazard.
To carry out the program spending of $775 million, spread over the next three years, would be authorized by the bill, beginning with $200 million for the fiscal year beginning July 1. About two-fifths of the money would be earmarked for research on controlling pollution from the combustion of fuels.
Rep. Glenn Cunningham (R-Neb.) cast the lone no vote on the final roll call.
Nixon backs YAF in Missouri drive
ST. LOUIS, Mo. (UPI)—The "build--don't wreck" campaign of the Missouri Young Americans for Freedom (YAF) has received the support of the White House.
Harry Dent, special counsel to the president, wrote to Michael W. Thompson, national vice-chairman of YAF and Missouri state chairman.
"The president asked me to express to you and the Missouri YAF his gratitude for your active support of his policies in Southeast Asia. Your 'build—don't wreck' program could serve as a model project for young people all over America and we wish you every success."

A Denison businessman has offered free trips to Las Vegas to the Midwestern students who recruit the most new students for the fall semester.
Midwestern needs more money and more students to survive.
Its motto is "We kindle the light of knowledge," but college officials are battling to keep even a flicker of hope alive.
Midwestern is virtually at the end of its financial rope. It has delayed its faculty payroll for May. It needs an estimated $150,-000 just to keep operating through the summer.
The college's 800 students have worked closely with administrators and faculty members to save the 5-year-old institution. They have made "marches for Midwestern." They have conducted a number of fund collection drives.
Dr. Edwin Coen, the school's second president, is working on a three-step plan to put the college on firm financial ground.
It includes a student recruiting drive, establishment of a public relations office to solicit funds on a year-round basis and enlargement of the board of trustees to add one student and one faculty member.
Midwestern is about 400 students short of its capacity. Its current enrollment represents only a 200 student increase since 1965, the first year of its operation.
6 offer pleas to vandalism
NORRISTOWN, Pa. (UPI) — Six white persons pleaded guilty Wednesday to charges of vandalism in a rampage through the WCAU-TV studios following a documentary on the Black Panther party.
Four men and a woman were sentenced to jail and a second woman was placed on probation. They were fined a total of $900 and ordered to pay $500 restitution by Montgomery County Judge Richard S. Lowe.
The Quaker City Weatherhier chapter of the Students for a Democratic Society claimed responsibility for the rampage Jan. 10 when windows inside the studio were smashed and furniture was damaged.
The chapter had said it objected to a documentary on the Panthers, presented several days before the rampage at the studio on the Philadelphia city line.
A seventh suspect in the case, Theodore Gold, 23, of New York City, was killed in an explosion which demolished a Greenwich Village townhouse March 6. Police said the townhouse was a "bomb factory."
