Shanty smashers to appeal
United Press International
HANOVER, N.H. — Twelve Dartmouth College students who were suspended for destroying anti-apartheid shawnes vowed yesterday to appeal their suspension. They charged that a college disciplinary panel had bowed to "hysteria and political hot air."
Robert Flanigan, one of the suspended undergraduates and business manager for a conservative campus newspaper, said the 12 students would appeal the disciplinary ruling to Dartmouth President David McLaughlin and would take it to court after that.
The college's Committee on Standards suspended the students Tuesday, hours after 18 other students were arrested for forming a human chain to block workmen from removing one of the shanties.
Flanigan said nine of the 12 students suspended were affiliated with the Dartmouth Review newspaper, an independent publication. He said the suspensions were "an attempt to shut down the Review."
"The punishment outspaced the charges," said Flanigan, a junior from White Plains, N.Y. "They succeeded to a lot of the hysteria and political hot air that has been going around campus."
Four shanties were erected on the college green in November to protest
Dartmouth's $63 million investment in companies doing business with South Africa.
Three of the four shanties were destroyed by conservative students wielding sledgehammers in the pre-dawn hours of Jan. 21. The incident sparked a 30-hour sit-in at McLaughlin's office by student and faculty protesters charging campus racism.
College administrators suspended classes at the Ivy League college Jan. 24 to discuss the allegations and ease tensions.
Dartmouth spokeswoman Laura Dicovitxol said the college decided to remove the last shanty Tuesday after town officials gave Dartmouth seven
days to either move the shanty or get a building permit.
The 18 students who tried to stop the shanty removal were arrested for criminal trespass. They were released on $500 personal recognition until their arraignments Feb. 25.
The students who claimed responsibility for the sledgehammer attack on the shanties were charged by the disciplinary panel with malicious destruction, disorderly conduct, harassment and other counts.
Deborah Stone, managing editor of the Dartmouth Review, said she and three other students were suspended indefinitely. Seven students were suspended for two terms and one for one term, she said.
3 Vermont students charge 'educational malpractice'
United Press International
RUTLAND, Vt. — Three students charging "educational malpractice" against a state college filed a $24,000 suit claiming they were denied a decent education and were encouraged by a professor to use drugs.
The lawsuit was filed Tuesday in Rutland Superior Court against Castleton State College. The suit follows repeated charges that the school granted credits to people who never took classes.
The students claim the college broke its educational contract with them by failing to provide proper instruction.
The Vermont attorney general's office and lawyers for the college said they would ask the judge to throw the suit out of court. They said no legal foundation existed for claiming educational malpractice.
The students charged that professor David Jung, who teaches a theatre course, had "created a harmful environment for the studies of the plantifys by encouraging drug abuse and allowing unsafe conditions to exist."
In August 1984, the college suspended Jung for one month after four students swore in depositions they either had smoked marijuana with Jung or had seen him smoking with students on campus.
Stephanie Keating of Littlefield, N.H., Jill Anderson of Granville, N.Y., and Todd Sherman of Montpellier charge that their current employers told them "they lack the skills they need."

Doctors found a small blood clot last week in his lung and have been treating him with anti-coagulants. He remained in fair condition yesterday.
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. Cartoonist Guy Breathed, creator of the "Bloom County" comic strip, is responding to treatment for a blood clot in his lung but probably will remain in the hospital through the weekend, a spokesman said
Breathed has been in St. Joseph Hospital recovering from a back fracture he suffered in the crash of
his ultralight aircraft north of Albuquerque on Jan. 22.
U. of Toledovotes policy of divesting
breathed signs his comic strip, which is distributed to about 850 newspapers nationwide, "Berke Breathed."
TOLEDO, Ohio — The University of Toledo's board of trustees yesterday adopted a policy of gradual divestiture from companies doing business in South Africa.
He has been unable to work on the comic strip since the accident.
United Press International
University officials said the policy would help promote an end to apartheid in that country.
The board of trustees voted 8-1 to require its financial officers to invest the university's endowment funds, which currently total $9.9 million, only in businesses which follow the Sullivan Principles, a voluntary code of conduct which promotes racial equality in employment and living conditions in South Africa.
By the end of this year, however, the university must sell its investments in companies which have not accepted certain sections of the Sullivan Principles.
Black leaders who pushed for the policy said a potential problem existed in a section which required the trustees to demand complete divestiture by Dec. 31, 1987.

AN EVENING WITH MAYNARD FERGUSON
Short, 67 and happily married for many years, has put together a litmus test on how to tell the difference between infatuation and true love.
"Let an infatuation roll over you like a warm wave at the ocean," Short says. "Just don't get immersed in it."
Infatuation is not a sign of true love,scholar says
But, he warns, "romantic love or more truly romantic infatuation will hold a couple together no longer than three to five years,
His test consists of 14 key clues to tell the difference between real love and infatuation. He cautions three of them could indicate either romantic love or the real thing. One is the funny feeling you get when you are around or thinking of the other person.
"The feeling is wonderful and no person should go through life without having at least one good infatuation." he says.
even if you throw in a good, red-hot sex relationship."
PLATTEVILLE, Wis. — A college professor who has kept tabs on Cupid for more than three decades says all people should have at least one "good infatuation" in their lives.

But Ray Short says to be careful — an infatuation could be fatal to a long-term relationship.
"There's nothing wrong with having a good, juicy, romantic infatuation," says Short, the author of two books on marriage and family. "It's fun to go around with a glaze in your eyes, a silly grin on your face, forgetting things and making stink mistakes.
"Your heart speeds up, maybe double time, everytime she sees him." Short says. "He gets weak in the knees and can't say anything intelligent when he's around her."
A second is a "gnawing need for nearness, you just want to be together all the time," he says.

Love means never having to say "I'm sorry".
Sounds good!
But LOVE sometimes requires saying, "I'm sorry"
In fact, love can grow when one admits wrong.
Saying "I'm sorry" and being forgiven
are not contrary to LOVE
but can really be the essence of LOVE.
I love mean. I can say "sorry".
