Shades of Sol Blatt. T. A. SMITH ROLl The Crucible loses funds DEAR MS. MILLER: Recently THE CRUCIBL South Carolina's litera magazine, went before the Boa of Allocations to ask for an crease in its budget for next f. Ms. Elissa Domroe, the editor, h produced a fine literary magazi winning five awards while und an extremely tight budget. Understandably, she and t staff wished to make ii provements in the next Fall issi They wanted to increase its si: expand into a three color form and publish a greater number magazines to reach more studen Also they wanted to start darkroom so that photography an art could be included. Instead, the budget was slash The Gamecock and the Garnet a Black can better afford a cut ba since they are partially subsidi2 by advertisements. But, T Crucible depends on semes grants of $200 or $300 from I English Department as its oi outside source of money other th the Board of Allocations.

SHELLIE NEWELL 3ut * This world of lill p- desexed broads eL DEAR MS. MILLER: ed Though I am not a member ol eir your fine institution, I do attend a rits prominent Eastern men's school nd and being pinned to one of youi me coeds, I have been kept informe ip? of your recent controvers3 ,ey surrounding women's lib (RE: nd Paul Ransohoff) and feel it m3 duty to make objective commentU concerning this subject. Certainly Peter Powers had thf right idea with respect to this US( Jock with a "383 cubic inch, foui barrelled carburetor, dua exhaust, chrome rimmed ex tension". However anyone wit E, such a finely machined extensioi ry hardly needs "to defend his mal rd ego." Perhaps he simply needs in- lube job? Also how is Peter Power 11 sure that Mr. Ransohoff' ad "supercock superiority" i ne imaginary? er I am extremely interested ir where Joslyn Tucker got such keer er insight into the mating habits o 3n- emasculated Anthropoid apes ie. Perhaps through persona .e, research? at, Miss Mims inquires as tc of whether Ransohoff would procurE ts. a male or female dog for hi a companion. Perhaps Miss Mims is as available? By the way, my pharmacist friend suggests ad. dramamine for her gastro nd intestinal disorders ... it will ck certainly help keep the sink clean, ed he Ginger Brown's suggestion tha ter Mr. Ransohoff attend the nex he Women's Lib short course is ar 'he excellent one.

MILLER: This letter is in response to the one written by Steve Levenberg appearing in Friday's Gamecock in which he criticized unfavorably the handling of Dr. Bob Jones' visit to USC. Dr. Jones address WAS NOT open to the public. ODK sponsors a weekly speaker and luncheon for its members and this speaker was deemed important enough to invite . the news media. I might add that it h took a great deal of persuasion to n have Dr. Jones come to USC to e speak and it was only through a personal contacts that his ap s pearance was possible. ODK had s no idea how USC would receive Dr. s Jones or how Dr. Jones would receive USC. I Omicron Delta Kappa is not i funded through student activity r fees. Neither was Dr. Jones given an honorarium for appearing. If Mr. Levenberg felt con spicious at the meeting, it was probably because he was con spicious. ODK does not mind in terested persons attending their lectures on an irregular basis, but when they write open letters denouncing the planning of the guest speakers visit, then ODK closes its doors to outsiders. EDDIE SHORE ODK PROGRAMS COORDINATOR Club incident angers student DEAR MS. MILLER: I am writing in regard to an GIT AN 10 spec B icycle~ Hand Made In I 19V'' to 25" Fra Models - Ultra I Cost $111.00 to In Coluir GATE'S C Box 9; Cedar Terrace Sh< 6420 Sumter ] Pnc 776 2 to 7 p.m. M incident that occurred around 7:00 tt p.m. on Wednesday, April 12, at the fc Campus Club South. After eating n dinner, two friends and I decided M that it would be relaxing to stop at u. the Campus Club and have a in leisurely drink and listen to the music before returning to the dormitory and resuming our h studies. On entering the establish ment, we were accosted by an s older man, attired in an un- a dershirt. The "gentleman" hailed 9 us in the following sophisticated ir manner: "Hey, baby come here." w ai Now this is a common oc- is currence in the life of all your B women in a college town, and it si received the amount of attention si such a common line should receive hi -- it was completely ignored. When ir we ignored his call, the gentleman el approached us in a highly irate and frenzied state, and in the most rude, cross language imaginable informed us that he was the owner of this business and that he wanted to see our identification. Not believing that the owner of a supposedly respectable place such as the Campus Club -- a place whose business is based entirely upon the student trade -- would accost patrons in such a base, curde, and vulgar manner, I asked a man tending bar whether this L was really the owner. To my t complete disbelief, I was informed that was the manager, Mr. Al a Miller. sl sI On returning to the rather ugly t scene that Mr. Miller was creating, h I, along with my two friends, were informed that we were "high u school dropouts" and should go a back where we belonged -- the Bowery. I had no intention of subjecting myself or my friends to sl further insult and embarrassment, and I informed Mr. Miller that we fi would leave and go join the rest of the "high school dropouts" at the Bowery. ti This ugly incident was com- w pletely unnecessary and could n easily have been avoided had Mr. t( Miller utilized some tact, courtesy P and common decency. If we had c, been politely requested to show t some identification, and if Mr. Miller had identified himself, we a would have gladly complied with this wish. Mr. Miller did not do sl h E a d d ti a :rance y vies - Men's & Ladies ii ight Weight -s 950O.00 - bia See: OTT AGE 142 >pping Center Iwy.

Miller's actions and his crwde ;e of the most vulgar curse w=rds a public person. On occasion, the Campus Club as advertised in the GAMECOCK in an obvious move to obtain the udent dollar. In light of the bove-described incident I jestion whether it is in the best iterest of the student body as a hole to continue carrying such ivertising. Perhaps this was an olated incident - perhaps not. ut in either case one should not ibject himself to the possibility of iffering the embarrasment and irt I went through. I, for one, tend to take my patronage sewhere. ROSANNA OLVERIO [he fragrance of urnt flesh EAR MS. MILLER: In reference to the polemic of reyman H. Dodson of 19 April, I 'ish to make a statement or two. et me first assure Mr. Dodson iat I feel as though I am dequately qualified to speak upon ich a delicate subject, having )ent over a year and a half with ie Marine Corps in Vietnam and aving shed just enough blood to arrant two Purple Hearts - 3eless trinkets which, along with dime, will allow me a cup of >ffee at any cheap restaurant. I feel that several of . your atements reflect not only your norance, but your naivete. In the rst place, do you really think the ie must bear personal witness to ie horrors of war to realize that iey exist? Besides, thanks to the onders of modern technology, we ed go no further than our own levision sets in order to ex erience all sorts of heinous -imes brought to us straight from e battlefields of Vietnam. As for your insane statement bout self-immolation, this leads ie to the conclusion that you ersonally have never caught the Alendid fragrance of burning uman flesh. In fact, I am curious s to exactly what minor role you id play in the conflict. I guess most of all, Mr. Dodson, I ~el sorry for you. You are ob ously such a shallow individual iat what you saw (if you did see niything other than a typewriter) id no lasting effect on you. Don't >u see that it really does not atter who dies in a war . .. is one fe worth more than another mply because of an ideoloegv? No . I guess you do not comprehend ach thought as those. Yours is a orld of "gooks" and "chinks" id you are probably perfectly ippy in it. R ICH ARD F. BR ADFORD III BL00D DONORS NEEDED!
