in this case the administration saved face.
USC proved that it didn't need mere students to
protect the campus. At the possible expense of
rape and violence, the USC administration
proved that it could protect its own.
In the same way, USC is attempting to save
face concerning drug education. The same ad.
ministration that was quick to suspend a student
for a drug arrest was slow to do anything about
drug abuse causes. It finally got off its haunches
and initiated Its own drug survey.
Students concerned with drug abuse on
campus expected the survey to be public before
last June. They also expected it to be public by
rmid-summer. This survey Is on President Jones'
desk, In printed form, with the date July, 1970, on
the cover.
The administration claims the numbers, in
mathematical language, need to be put in'un
derstandable verbiage before the survey can be
useful to students and the general public. But the

conclions of the commission aVe in the survey
as-It exists and ihould be seen.
Strangely' enough, the. survey doesn't
whitewash the administration.
it doesn't show a large, drug-hungry mob-ot
out-of-statars forcing unwanted acid on USC. The.
conclusions clearly Indicate the fault of the
administration in ignoring the issues, in
claiming there is no drug problem on campus.
The conclusions state clearly the need for
massive drug education programs to be In
corporated In the University Immediately.
While this document sits In high places, the
administration is thudding around attempting to
save face. After an edict from Jones' office, a
course on drug use and abuse is being offered in
mid-semester to the student body. A maximum
of 350 students can be enrolled.
This is not enough.
In light of the survey, it is not enough to sup
pose one program will offset the drug abuse on
campus. In light of the survey, it is not enough to
suppose such tokenism on the part of the ad
ministration will exonerate them from their lack
of honesty and action in the past.
In both cases the administration is saving face.
In both cases It would be unfair to the ad
ministration to mention their ignoring of
dangerous situations without mentioning their
beginning steps to alleviate these conditions. But
it wouldalso beunfair to the students nof to tel.
them that their governing bodies of adults would
'rather save face than be honest.
The federal government ignores its survey
groups when they don't show what the
President's office wants. That government is
still saving face in Formosa while ignoring the
most populous nation in the world.
USC's Administration is thudding around in
the dark ignoring students until everyone else is
cleared. They are deeply involved in the lie of
saving face.
Why should students expect a local govern
ment to be different from the national one?

The University Symphony
opened its season Wednesday night
with a fine performance in the new
McMaster Hall.
It is sometimes hard to write a
review of this group without
sounding like a public relations
man, but these people seem to
have one hell of a good time
playing&
The first number, Mozart's
overture to "Idomeneo," got off to
a slow start but the group picked it
up toward the work's finish. The
unconventional ending, quite
different from most of Mozart's
theatre works, seemed to throw the
audience for a moment.
The best number of Vivaldi's
Concerto for Two Violins and
Orchestra in A Minor featured
soloists Cary Watts and Linda
Goldstein.
The two soloists were well
prepared and have been practicing
since late summer. They worked
well together and blended
beautifully with the orchestra,

;tic group
which had been cut back to strings
for this work. The sound was ex
cellent for a Vivaldi work-strong,
crisp and reasonably sure.
The Haydn Symphony, No. 88,
was well done'the%woodwindswere
especially suited to this work. The
only problems came during the
slow second movement, when the
group did not sustain the notes in
the largo.
The closing number, Sibelius'
tone poem "Finlandia," was not
4iiited to the group, because of a
lack of more viola, cello and double
bass players. This work, after all,
was meant for an orchestra twice
the size of DeJonge's group.
The most injoyable thing about
this group is that they like what
they are doing. For lovers of
classical music, or for those who
may want to find out what classical
music is all about, this will be a
good season. There are three more
concerts this semester-go and
listen. The concerts are free. And
there is no better way to find out
-what classical music is all about.

It isnot aprac of -mine to
write* 0pper editors protesting
what they include an their printed
page; howver, there were several
articles concerning the David
Ebenhower visit in your October
21 iNst% that are so unfair I feel it
neoesary to let your readet se
at least another side. Besides,
being partly involved, I happen to
know something of what happened.
Your "attacks" were directed
toward Gay Suber, a USC grAduate
and one of the finest young men I
know; yet, it was obvious you were
trying to create an issue that leads
to condemnation of the entire
Republican party itself.
The problem: several people
representing USC news media
wished to attend a luncheon (not a
press conference as you repeat
several times) at which David
Eisenhower was the main speaker.
Like it or not, the media usually
has to be checked and cleared
prior to an event Involving a
member of the President's family.
This means someone needs to
know in advance that you plan to
attend. For instance, recently. Jim
Henderson, candidate for
Lieutenant Governor, was invited
to be with President Nixon at a
speaking engagement in Asheville.
I failed to tell the "advance" that a
photographer would be with
Henderson--the result being the
photographer sat out In left field. I
knew better; maybe you didn't
but they're facts of life and you
learn to cope with such
"problems!' rather than venting
your condemnation of a man and
his political party.

(WUSCY appeared with a mWO
(which someone had forgotten)
Noting that he was looMg 'for,.
oeone irm WUSC, I asked
several people to see If they could
find these people. After learning
they were gone, it was also learned
that they were denied entrance to
the luncheon (not a press con
ference) by a young fellow han
dling his type of operation for the
first time (but-remember, he.was
doing the job as is usually reqM
involving members of the
presidential family).
The important point Is that
several people were willing to help
and were glad to learn the
University media are concerned
enough to be involved In such an
event. Some of us were even a little
sngry that you were unable to
participate. Gay Suber, In fact,
then laid the ground work for an
interview with Eisenhower at the
airport.
Apparently, nothing of interest
to students was learned during the
interview. It's interesting to note
that though there are three articles
(front and editorial pages) con
demning Suber and the Republican
party and leaving unanswered
several pointed questions (which
anyone can answer), not one line
about any conversation with
Eisenhower is reported.
Again, you're entitled to your
opinion. Everyone is! But opinions
aren't facts -- and only editorial
writers and lazy reporters state
opinions rather than give facts.
Words serve good and evil. They
serve for good only when they tell
the truth.
