front organizations worship "the sys-
tenn" while tearing it apart in the
process. They hate Catholics, Jews
and Negroes, and liberals for selling
out our biological birthright". These
Birch captives have taken the easy
way-if you don't want to think con-
spiracy is the answer. Ike is a Swede
Jew. There is no race problem in
Fargo, North Dakota because every
one is too busy hating the Indians.
Hall, who is sort of Boston Blackie
of political ideas, says the only way
you can win is to have better ideas
than either the left or the right.
This is not Cuba or Budapest, this
is the United States where no under
ground movements are necessary. We

like MCGEE or Mansfield you can get
rid of them anytime, the polls.
The Birchers want to get rid of
NATO. This military organization
formed to halt Communist expansion
should be part of your home work
before you hear the next anti-Com-
munist speaker.
Feast upon all ideas. Neither fol-
lower or leader be. Neither right nor
left nor empty middle ground. It's
very convenient for all these guys to
live your life for you. It's difficult
but being your own moving finger
write out in the moving sands of
events the best you know and all the
mediocre evils will pass you by so

termarriage. Does this mean that to
be sexually irresistible you should be
dirty, smelly and uneducated?
Hall was good on the definition OF
the liberal and conservative demarc-
atoms.
Liberals-today's dominating force
will use the power of state and fed
eral government to further their goals
which are ID extend all phases of
popular government and (2) consti-
tutional reform.
Conservatives-ob with linn
iting federal power to the preserving
of order and tradition, are losing at
the polls because they distrust people.
The liberals are getting people to
the polls because they are the "do
gooders' at heart while the pessimis-
tic conservatives can see no change
in the nature of man.
Both are welded to our Bill of
Rights and serve the country well
in our political mainstream. Both be-
lieve in the rules of the game.
However his definitions of the ex-
tremes made the cleavage clearer.
The Cleft" hates systems-econom-
ic systems, profit motives, American
Medical Association and Chamber of
Commerce mentalities. They go for
things like ban the
bomb, anti-colonialism and things that
appeal to college students. They are
people lovers.
The fright" hates people but loves
systems even if they don't know what
the system is all about. They use the
symbols of the middle class Horatio
Alger as their model and the five

cheaper to ship gallon of oil across
the country than to mail a letter
across the street. And the Internal
Revenue, they lock up fighters to get
the money before the gangsters do.
General Walker was locked up and
sent to the nut house where they
stripped his clothes off. Doesn't that
shock you?
Not really.
What Manion did accomplish was
the likely kiss of death for Dean
Sullivan of the Missoula Law School.
No temporary presidency of the uni
versity with the eventual permanent
appointment can come to Sullivan
when the blessings of the John Birch
Society may turn out to be curse
for Republicans at the polls in 1864.
Gordon Hall properly hung the JBS
sign on Manion and glibbly went
through the political spectrum-Black
Muslims-White Supremists-
Communist made good sense
in voice that belied his Boston back
ground. His rapid fire delivery didn't
necessarily try to involve the listener
in emotionalism and you could be-
lieve that he was trying to be factual.
In fact he was good. Good enough
to be what he is-a freelance lee
turer.

Last Friday the lawyers associa-
ton had two entertaining speakers on
politics, matter which should be
rather near and dear to lawyers. They
gave them both standing ovations. I
guess that means that they are I'M
biased and go for anything as long
as it is expediting matters political.
I don't really know what to think
about the pair. They both seemed to
like themselves enormously and were
quite willing to point the way to
salvation but which way or where
didn't come through to me.
I liked to listen to them both be-
cause maybe l am tone deaf and will
ing to absorb anything that might
have to do with current political
trends. 1t was sort of matter of
style of speech. Who do you think
is the funniest, Jack Benny or Jack
Parr?
Clarence Manion, from the John
Birch Society executive council, had
the flamboyant flowery delivery of
the old school, the hell fire and brim-
stone modulated for this group of
listeners. That old devil government

College Costs

The biggest stumbling block to
higher education for the average per-
sons child is high costs. The average
cost of college education at a pri-
vate out-of-town college is $4,000 an
nually. At state land grant college,
the cost is less but still comes to
$1,000.

FIVE MEN CHARGED
WITH FIRST DEGREE
MURDER, D. "A. SAYS

The Office Of the United States
Attorney for the Virgin Islands
has announced that a charge of
murder in the first degree has
been filed this week against Sam
tos Valentin Ruiz, Domingo Ma
varro Osorio, Juan Cruz Morales,
Rafale Rivera and Hector Luis
Cruz Morales. All of the accused
are above the age of eighteen, ex-
cept Hector Luis Cruz Morales,
who is sixteen years of age. None
theless, all will be jointly charged
with the murder of Harry Cooper.

proximately one hour after their
escape, it alleged that they shot
Harry Cooper at his home. He
died in the early hours of Sunday,
November 3rd.
The shooting, it appears, grew
out Of an attempt by the five es-
capped prisoners to rob the Cooper
home. The Coopers at the time
were entirely unknown to the pri-
soners, and at the time the prison
ers approached the residence, they
did not even know who lived
there. It appears that their sole

one recruited from among pro-

These would be divided into

only for one afternoon at a

"This Sporting Life" is less
about football than about a

American game as pictured

rougher.

In a serum, the ball is put in
