An afternoon workshop on television for children features McLuhan, Captain Kangaroo and personnel from "Sessame Street." Discussing Buckley's journal were Larry DuBois of Time, John Leonard of the New York Times and William Cheshire of the State. Buckley defended the printing of an "obscenity" in an incident such as last fall's that involved a campus policeman here. Buckley described a hypothetical situation in which an "obscenity" was yelled at a policeman and he reacted. Later there was the question of excessive force. To explain the situation "it might be necessary (to print the *obscenity"); in fact, it would be." Discussing the role of ROTC on campus with Buckley on the second program were Dante L. Germino of the University oi Virginia and Arthur Bierman of the City College of New York. USC students Carl Stepp, Stephanie Fiedler and Mike Krochmalny each asked a question.
