statement music critic Charles Andrews made in the Dec. 18 issue of The Lobo and also on an article concerning the hazards of rock-concert promotion in Albuquerque which appeared in the Feb. 5 issue of the Hard Times.
Andrews wrote that "rock 'fans' in this town are a strange group; they complain about living in a berg too small to attract any good groups, and then when somebody goes out on a limb to bring one here the crowd is consistently much smaller that it should be." (I presume that Andrews's motive for saying this was to boost attendance at the Jan. 16 Canned Heat concert.)
The thing Andrews apparently doesn't realize is that tickets for rock concerts in this city are too expensive for most people to afford. Unlike Andrews, most of us don't get free tickets to the concerts so that we can report the show for The Lobo. Indeed, rock fans in this town are not a strange group, but rather, simply a poor group.
Times, we see a pin-point photograph of Santana with the quotation superimposed, "If we bring these guys to town we could lose our ass." The topic sentence of the article begins, "One of the surest ways to lose your financial ass in Albuquerque is to pick up the expenses for promoting a rock concert."
they might lower their guarant~e at least a little bit. As to cancellations, there should be an iron-clad contract which prohibits cancellations for whatever reasons. But any group that is willing to lower their price in the first place is probably going to show up.
Secondly, to insure a good turn-out, especially since the rock fans in this city and state are poor, it is absolutely essential to keep the price of tickets low. I think that no
An analysis into why rock promotion is so risky might prove h.elpful. The fundamental problem as I see it is this: rock bands want lots of money-in fact ridiculous sums of money for Albuquerque-but we the consumers have very little money. What this city needs, then, is a whole new approach to rock concert promotion.
ticket for a rock concert in Albuquerque should ever cost more than $3. If the price of tickets is reasonable, then people will attend.
Thirdly, to solve the apparent dilemma of supplying the supergroup's high guarantee, from the limited financial resources of Albuquerque rock fans, it is imperative that the volume of tickets sold must be vastly increased. The Civic Auditorium is the worst possible place in Albuquerque to hold a rock concert because it seats only 500 people. Since there are so few paying consumers, the price of the tickets must be exorbitant in order to insure that both the musicians and the promoters will make their profit.
This is what I think should be done. Firstly, when asking a group to play here, the promoter should appeal to them to lower their price if it is unreasonable, which it probably is. He should personally talk with the musicians, not with their agent, for obvious reasons. He should present to the musicians well-researched and documented facts which prove how poor this part of the country really is. From their response, the promoter can easily determine whether the musicians are capitalist pigs or authentic love and peace people. It is my belief that if a band were presented with this type of request, it is not inconceivable that
Hence, the answer to this dilemma is in finding a location that will seat many more people than the civic; namely, Tingley Collesium, the basketball arena, the horseracing
grandstands at the state ~air grounds, the UNM football stadmm or the Albuquerque Sports Stadium. With a larger sea~ing capacity (10,000 plus), more tickets can be sold at substantially lower prices so that everyone-the musicians, the promoters and the consumerswould be happy. To me, this concept of volumnizing is the only viable solution to the problem of bringing good rock entertainment to Albuquerque. My theory is based on the idea of demand elasticity, and I'm sure that any economics professor at UNM could tell a rock concert promoter whether it will work or not.
As a footnote, I might add that it would help tremendously if both rock musicians and promoters were a little less greedy. Certainly, few are against a man making a legitimate and reasonable profit for his work, but this extensive exploitation of hip culture by filthy capitalist pigs is disgusting. The whole business is shrouded in mystery: the consumer really doesn't know exactly how much Santana charges, exactly what promotional expenses are or how much promoters really make off a concert. But the consumer does know, with a surprising amount of certitude, that somebody's making a helluva lot of money off these rock concerts and that they cost us too much money.
New Mexico is one of the poorest states in the country, and Albuquerque has been designed by the federal government as "an area of substantial unemployment." This economic situation makes for a very
•. , low wage rate, usually $1.60 per hour or less, if a person is lucky enough to get a job at all.
When someone is forced to shell out anywhere from $4 to $5.50 for two 45-minute sets of music, it is hardly difficult to understand why they are either reluctant to attend such concerts or try to crash the gate.

As to the article in the Hard
Right On By JERRY NORTON
YAF-FCNS One favorite myth of the left is
that, thanks to evil capitalism, the poor get poorer and the rich get richer. In point of fact, the 1970 census indicated 24.3 million Americans could be classified as "poor" compared to 39.5 million in 1960. The poor, then are a shrinking minority. '
T~is is not t? deny that poverty remams a senous problem with significant numbers of Am~ricans left out of the growing affluence. When these Americans see what others have and hear politicians say that they too should have these things, we have the "revolution of rising expectations" that manif~sts itself in riots, militant pressure groups and increasing alienation.
Because of this, to say that poverty is gradually decreasing is not enough. Unless progress is faster, espedall~ am?ng minority groups, the natwn Is courting domestic disaster.
The new left "solution" would be a revolution to replace the present system with another. While the local Ches are usually vague about what this will be, it generally enta11S collectivism, with such societies as
I Government Hinders Poor's Progress Cuba, North Vietnam, China and the USSR held up as examples. Considering that the affluent man in these societies is poor by American standards, that "improvement" hardly seems worth a revolution.
Liberals of the John Lindsay mold offer their usual proposals: have th.e go.vernment spend more money, raise mcomes through the fiat of minimum wage laws, increase government controls over the economy, ad nauseam. Unfortunately, these simplistic solutions are exactly what the government has been trying for 40 years, and the poor are more not less discontent. '
A conservative would argue that the decrease in property that has continued to occur in this country has come in spite of, not because of liberal programs Hke those outlined above, and that the best way to make faster progress would be to abolish many of these government hinderances.
The prime example is the minimum wage. It should be obvious that if a company's profit margin is small and a government law increases the wages it must pay its employes without an accompanying increase i~ production, the effect on employment and the economy
would be negative. To stay in business, the employer will either have to .fire some. workers, replace them With machmes or raise his price~. The unemployment caused by the f1rst two possibilities is obvious and the third possibility contributes to inflation.
Those unconvinced by abstract economics need only to look at ~istory and statistics. After every 111crease in minimum wage unemployment has increased among teenagers, especially teenage blacks. This represents one of the most marginally employed groups. A report in the New York Times in 1967 indicated that 100,000 Southern farm workers lost their jobs after the minimum wage was applied to them.
The monopoly power that government has granted to labor unions has much the same effect as minimum wage laws. Unions force employers to raise wages without corresponding productivity increases. Some companies that can't pay these wages go out of business, as have many newspapers. Others, like the coal industry, speed up automation. Most simply pass the increase on to consumers, including the poor who must then pay higher prices. This
contributes to inflation, and we have seen in the last two years what ultimately happens when inflation gets out of hand and an effort is made to stop it. Government-protected labor unions are also among the major obstacles to the poor when they try to break into skilled jobs. These unions sharply restrict employment, often through blatant discrimination. ln 1969 the Philadelphia local of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers in Pittsburgh had no more members than it had 25 years ago.
Government-imposed tariffs and quotas on imports also contribute to inflation and high prices, forcing the poor to buy more expensive do~estic goods instead of· cheap foreign goods. Unions and industry combine to pressure government to retain tariffs, despite nearly universal agr~ement among economists about thell' harmful effects.
Many government "solutions" then, really seems to be part of the problem. If these restrictions and fa!ling programs are repealed, there might be the rapid. progress in solving poverty and increasing minority e~ployment that would end the discontent years.
Financing Forces College Cutbacks Soaring Costs, Inflation Hurt Many Programs
By JOHN A. CIWWL THE CHRONICLE of Higher Education
The tight financial situation in higher education is forcing a growing number of colleges and universities to trim expenditures for the current fiscal year and to budget smaller- than- normal increases in spending for next year.
Expenditures at some institutions will be smaller in 1971-72 than in the current year, despite inflationary pressures.
The financial situation, says Roger Howell, Jr., president of Bowdoin College, "is growing worse rather than better."
Howell says that many colleges are being forced "to re-examine their entire program." At Bowdoin, he says, "We are hoping that we'll be able to bring our soaring costs down by a combination of increasing efficiency and a careful watching of all expenditures,"
He continued, "Every one of our programs is receiving a long, hard look. We are trying to do this as a community effort, but there seems little doubt that some of the things to which we have become accustomed will have to be eliminated or modified."
Howell could be speaking for many other institutions. The prospect for easing the financial pinch by merely increasing income seems remote for most colleges and universities.
Massive new aid from the federal and state governments, viewed by many academic leaders as the long-range solution to their fiscal problems, apparently will not be forthcoming soon.
And, with the exception of a few institutions, increases in tuition, gifts, and endowment income simply will not produce enough additional funds to match expenses if costs continue to rise as rapidly as they have in the past few years.
As a result, more and more colleges are engaged in the delicate operation of trying to pare expenditures as much as possible without sas:rificing academic quality or institutional morale.
Belt-tightening procedures varywidely from one institution to an other. Virtually all of the colleges that hav~ announced budget cuts, however, insist that so far the reductions have not been large enough to affect educational quality. Some examples;
A Princeton University committee last week recommended expenditures of nearly $1-million less for the 1971-72 fiscal year than for the current year. Along with a tuition increase, the cuts are expected to help reverse the recent trend at Princeton toward larger and larger deficits.

Horn is a partner in the Horn Oil Co. in Albuquerque and is also owner of the Calvin Horn Publishing Co. He has served in the state legislature, taught New Mexico history in UNM's Community College and is currently a member of UNM President Ferrel Hendy's advisory board. He graduated from UNM in 1939.
Roberts is a former majority whip and majority floor leader in
the state House of Representatives. He is currently a member of the law firm of Tansey, Rosebrough, Roberts and Gerding in Farmington, N.M. He received his bachelors and law degrees from UNM.
Wiley and Roybal will succeed Jose Maldonado and Frank Peloso if confirmed by the Senate. Wiley is curnmtly the chief of the Albuquerque Public Schools system and p~.·ior to assuming that post was a professor of school administration at UNM. Roybal is a practicing Albuquerque attorney.
OTTAWA ( UPI)- External Affairs Minister Mitchell Sharp said Monday he was counting on pub 1 ic opinion in the United States to block the proposer! tanker route from Alaska to the U.S~ west coast.
Sharp said Canada was strongly opposed to the proposal, now under study by the U.S. government, to ship oil from the fields in northern· Alaska by pipeline to Valdez, Alaska, and then by tanker to refineries in Bellingham, Wash.
He said Canada had not made a formal protest because the matter was still under study and because
the tankers' proposed route would all be in international or U.S. territorial waters.
However, he noted Bellingham was only a few miles from the Canadian border and any pollution would affect Canadian waters in the Juan De Fuca and Georgia straits as well as around the cities of Vancouver and Victoria.
"You can imagine what would happen if one of those tankers was to break up and spill its cargo into those ·inland waters," the Minister told newsmen. "It would take years and years, perhaps forever, to clean up the pollution,
"This is the time for public opinion on the west coast to express itself forcefully. They all have a similar interest in preventing pollution of the
coastline. "This is not a case of the
Canadian government opposing the U.S. government,'' Sharp said. "If the tribunal now examining the proposal rules in favor, then the Canadian government would have to consider. joining the protest formally. But I hope that the tribunal will recommend against it on ecological grounds."
He urged U.S. Congressmen and State Legislators, especially on the west coast, to "express themselves ve1·y f o rcefully" to halt the proposal. He noted the British Columbia Legislature already has passed a resolution condemning the plan.
Sharp said an all·pipeline route from Alaslm through Canada's Maclcenzit> Valley would be an "alternative" to the present proposal, but he said Canada would not offer any special "deal" to encourage a Mackenzie Valley pipeline.
"I don't think we should be buying anyone off," he said. "I think this present proposal should be considered on its merits-whether it is the right thing to do."
National Guard Law Challenged
BOULDER, COLO. {CPS)-'I'he constitutionality of a state law granting immunity from punishment to military men involved in quelling civil disturbances is being challenged in the Denver Federal District Court.
The suit, brought by University of Colorado (UC) law students with help from the American Civil Liberties Union, does not stem from any specific incident. David Engdahl, UC law professor, said the issue is "the official condoning of battlefield tactics" by troops against civilians.
Final GSA Results Bert Hansen won a
narrow victory Feb. 12 to become the second president of GSA.
Hansen polled 382 votes in the week-long balloting to edge out Kathy McNerney by some 16 votes. Jim O'Neill was unopposed in the vice presidential race.
A referendum to create a five-member GSA Student Court to hear graduate student legal matters was passed, as was the $20,250.50 GSA budget.
Hansen will hold office until next year.

Laotian Operation to Continue WASHINGTON-The South Vietnamese dl'ive into Laos is going
according to the way it was planned, and it will probably continue until late spring, a high White House official said Monday.
The cuts across the Ho Chi Minh Trail have forced the Communists to make time consuming detours in their efforts to supply their troops farther south, the official, who declined to be identified, told newsmen aboard Air Force One as President Nixon returned to Washington from a Florida weekend.
He also said the South Vietnamese could be 20 miles farther along on their American-backed operation inside Laos, but are deliberately working at a slower pace so they can leave behind them a network of artillery support bases on both sides of Route 9. He said the operation would continue until the rainy season begins in early May.
He said the move is going according to plan and the loss of 14 U.S. helicopters to Communist ground fire in Laos was not an unexpectedly high toll. When asked why President Nixon has made no public comment on the operation, he replied: "Why should he?"

Trial Judge Marcel Nichols asked last week for nominations by the bar of a "friend of the court with power of intervention (on Rose's behalf)." Rose had refused to be represented by counsel.

IVILLOI IN FllAUCE,
Ankori spoke Feb. 14 at Congregatio-n Bnai Israel on the subject "looking From History to the Future: Can Jews and Arabs Live Peacefully Together?" in the Jewish Heritage Lecture Series.
"Can Arabs and Jews Jive together in the Mid East? On Arab terms, no," he said.
He explained he was "not speaking from a position of neutrality. Assuming a neutral stance does not make a person a better scholar. I appear here as a protagonist."
In modern times, said Ankori, "The Arabs brainwashed the western world by presenting a monolithic picture of the Mid East ... The Mid East is a mosaic, This is what we have to build the future on, not the illusory monolithic Arab Mid East."
The Lebanese Christians and the Kurdish rebels in Iraq were named as examples by Ankori of the different cultures of the Mid East.
Rejecting the idea of Arab tolerance, Ankori said "Zionism is not here to accept tolerance, What we demand is equality, and recognition of the national rights of each people,"
Conflict between Jew and Arab began, said Ankori, after the Babylonian Captivity of the Jews. "When Jews returned from the Babylonian captivity they found themselves in the same situation
Mohammed, said Ankori wanted to convert the Jews to his' new faith. "But the Jews rejected him, despite Mohammed's readiness to make all sorts of concessions to them. He decided that if they were not for him they were against him. He bega~ an armed warfare against the Jewish tribes."
"The most unusual period in Arab-Jewish relations", began after the Moslem conquests which followed Mohammed's death. "The conquests obliterated the

For the future, Ankori forsees "a long period of stalemate ... biting our lips, burying our dead." This will be ended only, said Ankori, when the Arabs "rise above themselves and accept a cause greater than themselves ..• In which an Arab state and a Jewish state will exist together."

Caution: Ascorbic Acid Harmful to Your Health
By AARON HOWARD "Caution: Vitamin 0 in large
doses may be hazardous to your health."
Although you may never see the above warning on a bottle of ascorbic acid, a number of medics warn Vitamin 0 may be potentially harmful in large doses.
Joseph Beres, assistant director of the Student Health Center, says large doses of Vitamin C can cause complications in certain individuals including such harmful effects as kidney stones and cystinuria.
Since the popularization of Linus Pauling's "Vitamin C and the Common Cold," Beres estimates that 80 percent of the students on campus are taking Vitamin C when they get a cold.
A Lobo telephone survey of four local drug stores revealed all of them report increased sales in Vitamin C ranging from "ten to 20 percent" at one store to "about 100 percent" at another store during the past four months.
Although the Vitamin C treatment of colds has been widely accepted, Beres warned Pauling's recommendations of daily doses as high as 15 grams
can cause complications in many people.
"A few cases of kidney stones have showed up on campus in the past few months," said Beres. "We can't prove whether Vitamin C had any effect on the formation of the stones, but there is a strong possibility of a link."
A Medical Letter on Drugs and Therapeutics of Dec. 25 in which doses of four to 12 grams of Vitamin C daily has been linked to "the precipitation of urate and cystine stones or to cystinuria."
The medical letter issued by an independent group of doctors, also recommends Vitamin C should be avoided "in patients with a tendency to gout."
Beres said his main objection to Vitamin C at this point is the lack of scientific study which has bel'n done on its effects.
"I would like to see a hard study done using one control group and one group on placebos to see if Vitamin C really does have more than a psychological effect on the person who uses it."
Beres warned that until such tests were conducted under controlled clinical conditions, he did not recommend people use Vitamin C in large doses to fight off colds or to promote daily health.
NOW OPEN! When asked what he did
recommend for the common cold, Beres said, "Drink fluids, get plenty of rest, and use the Student Health Service if you are unsure of what is ailing you."

not too bad considering the field rncluded New Mexico, Michigan State, and Santa Clara. l!,oster really must have been horrified with the officials to make such a statement. Rutgers is an independent team and plays all ?':er_ the country, s.o Foster has seen enough sectional offlCiatrng to make his
Fernando Abugattas, Dave Roberts and Ingemar Jernberg have already achieved attention by setting school records in the high jump, the 1000-yd. run and the pole vault respectively.
Abugattas set a school record in the UNM Invitational by posting a 7 '1 'AI" leap. The jump set a coliseum record as well as a school record. He should be assisted by Ingemar Nyman, who has cleared 6'10W', and Abugattas to give UNM a strong 1-2. punch in the event.
comparison. . . . . But it is not only this outsider who Is very disappornted
with the area officials. Hardly a WAC game goes by without one of the coached protesting that he got screwed.
Roberts in the Jaycee Invitational set a school and coliseum record by running a 2:08.3 1000-yd. run. He will probably prove to be the Wolfpack's biggest asset in the middle distance department.
Pole vault punch should be provided by Jernberg who vauled 16' 1 %" in the J.C. meet, setting the school record in that event.
Coaches generally do not like to criticize officials. Doing so makes them seem bush for pinning the loss on something else than their team. Coach Bob King has on numerous occasions voiced his displeasure with the officials to sportswriters on an off- the -record basis. This is being done all over the conference.
Anyone who goes to a Lobo game in the Arena and carefully watches the officials (disregarding the prejudiced crowd that would like it if every call went against the opponent) can observe some strange things going on.
The WAC is notorious for its "Home court advantage, and from what I can see, the officials contribute greatly to that advantage.
Hackett said BYU and UTEP will provide much of the powerful competition the Lobos will have to contend with in the WAC track scene.
"Lack of depth overall," says Hackett, "will be the weakest aspect of this year's team." But he pointed out he would have at least "one outstanding performer in each event," which should give Lobo track fans something to cheer about this spring.
He anticipates his athletes in the field events and middle distance runners will be the strongest performers of the team.
The team will be led by Tom Erickson and Chuck Steffes, co-captains for· the thinclads this year. Steffes is a long and triple jumper, Erickson is a middle distance man.
After the starting block meet against NAU the Lobos will have a 15-meet schedule up to the WAC championships on May 14-15 in Tucson.
All UNM students are encouraged to attend these events and support their Lobos. Students with athletic cards are admitted free to home events.
I am not accusing the men in stripes of throwing the game or playing favorites. But I do think the officials let the home crowd affect them, which is the first characteristic that an official should not have.
When in the Arena, I feel that the visiting teams get the bad end of too many close calls. It may not seem that way because naturally when you are watching your home team play, any call for your team is a good one and any call against them is a bad one. But an honest look will tell you that the Lobos are getting more than their fair share of the calls.
But when they are on the road it is a different story.
One indication that the refs are aware of the crowd sentiment (hostility, usually) is that at courts where team fouls are posted on the scoreboard, the refs will often ask the scoreboard operator to put the fouls up only until a team reaches seven (putting the bonus situation into effect) and then not put up any more. This is so when a spectator looks at the scoreboard, he thinks that an even number of fouls have been called against each team. Too many fouls (or a big difference between the teams) sometimes makes a crowd question the refs. Rigging the scoreboard like this is done frequently and successfully.
The officials should not bend one inch to what the crowd is demanding. They should call the game as they see it, as impartially as possible, no matter what the crowd thinks. The old stories about referees being ridden out of town on a rail just never happened and probably never will. When a ref is in any way swayed by a crowd, he is not doing his job right. I think that we have a slightly scared bunch of officials in the WAC.
There is no reason for the conference results to look the way they do. The worst teams beat the best ones by large margins at home, and they do it consistently. Only one team has ever won the championship without winning every home game.
One example this year is Brigham Young. The Cougars are 10·0 at home and 4-8 on the road. Last week they beat the UTEP Miners, who came into Provo leading the league, by the fantastic score of 7 5-48. These indicate that something more than "home court familiarity" is working for the Brighams.
So when (and if) the WAC Officials get around to calling the games as if there were no crowd present to influence them, then I will advocate for them to brush up on the rules a little. But for now, I am considering things in order of importance.

Amistad: The Free University is the last remnant that still testifies to the fact that there was a student strike last spring. The strike was precipitated by the U.S.'s insatiable missionary desire to help others destroy themselves. The feeling during the strike was that the University had for too long ignored the real problems in society.
The actions of the strikers, however, belied their convictions, for we were not so much concerned with what we wanted in terms of changing the relationship the University has to the larger community, but rather
After 130 people had been arrested who had put their collective "asses on the line" (the only tactical maneuver that everybody had agreed on), and people were stabbed on the mall, everybody knew what happens "when the police come" and no one seemeq to want to pursue the matter any further. The studentadministration- faculty meeting which created Amistad as the Stanford on Central alternative to the larger university was a politically expedient measure which all could agreed to, and even seemed grateful for (this may have been the first community decision that thE University has ever made).
There was to be no punishment for those who chose the Free U classes rather than those regularly scheduled. The faculty participated as facilitators and the entire experiment was a success. However, no real committment was made to the community self-education idea of Amistad.
dragging its feet on a potentially embarrassing political issue. Dudley Wynn finally offered office space in the Honors Center, and the second floor of the Union was utilized (very erratically) for classroom space. Students still came to class (in small numbers) but the intensity of their committment had vanished. The faculty was completely disinterested (the complaint: "Amistad is no longer conveniently located; no right- out - the - front - door parking spaces").
Further, as during the strike, students still didn't know what they wanted. currently, some rant and rave about Amistad "not providing for their needs," but what they really mean is that the Free University won't spoon feed them their courses in mouth size bites. A free university is not supposed to "Provide for people's needs"; we are not a parental organization.
Until the students at this University begin to organize classes themselves around real problems, and their real needs and interests,· Amistad will continue to reflect the hodge podge of community and occult interests its schedule now lists. We are meeting some people's needs (for they are now attending classes), but we would hope that number could (and will) increase as more students participate in the organizing of Free U classes.
Amistad would like to begin a series of University community forums dealing with such topics as revolution, ecology, technology, consumer fraud and others. Any faculty member, students, community people or others with expertise in any of these or other areas and willing to share that expertise in general community discussions is urged to call the Amistad office at 277-5826.

Activism To the Editor:
I watched part of the pathetic rally in the mall Wednesday, Feb. 10, which reminded me of a group standing around watching their apartment building burn down while someone whines, "Somebody do something," but, of course, nobody does.

Meter Mess To the Editor:
Rick Reade
UNM has done it again! They've found another way to sponge students of theit money. Many people are forced to park at one of the 98 or so parking meters lined up along Roma Ave., so they are a little disconcerted at having to pay 10 cents just to go to a one hour class.
So what, what's a dime? But what about the poor guy who has five classes in a row? He has to park his car and sit in it until one minute before class, then break the world's record for .the 220 yard dash to make it on time. Then at the end of

Now these are just the people with 50 minute classes. What about the people with 75 minute classes. They plug in their dime and at the end of class they have to run back to their car so fast that they go back in time-15 minutes, which is pretty hard to do!
On the way back from class, I passed by a line of cars on Roma. 10 out of 15 had tickets, while the "Harley cop" was waiting there to pass out tickets to the remaining five cars when their time expired.
Now, I don't know what to do to get rid of this problem, but I do know something is wrong when I get mad about a parking problem and I don't even drive a car on campus.

Today, Tomorrow To the Editor:
I saw this bumper sticker on an automobile bumper in Pennsylvania: "Due to general apathy, tomorrow has been cancelled."
Humorous enough. But more than that, it signified something-something to do with the vapidness of spirit that is seeping around through the population like a gas leak. Something to do with the existential
" • f I I I • v . ' '. • .. I'
Another Tremor
VIew that this is a universe of no purpose.
Seeing that bumper sticker, though, is encouraging. If you can make a bad thing funny, expose it to laughter, you've got it whipped. Apathy is no exception; in fact, apathy .is even more susceptible to death by laughter than most evils. Apathy just can't hold out for an instant in the presence of laughter. Levity wafts it out of sight like hot air in a balloon.
Furthermore, apathy attracts the laughter that destroys it. Take a look at the most noticably apathetic people. They're downright comical. They drift along with heavy-lidded eyes. They pick the silliest gadgets with which to try to alleviate the dullness of today. They stand there
·-like oxen, too stupid to see that the ve;.1 air around them fairly tingles With purpose and meaning and goodness.
It is time for apathy to be held up to ridicule. For too long now Americans have felt that it'~ fashionable to I:J e blase and indifferent. It's high time we admit there are such things as purpose and destiny and greatness and reward. Apathy is mdeed another of those foolish little evils that can be laughed off .. So what, if tomorrow is cancelled? We .can do what we've happily done for centuries: Just postpone today and re-run yesterday.

Speculation Looms Over Price Controls WASHINGTON (UPI)- The
White House said Tuesday efforts to voluntarily restrain spiraling. building costs apparently had failed, underscoring speculation that President Nixon may soon impose price · wage controls on the construction industry.
Nixon May Impose Freeze on Construction Industry Pr·ofits agreement appeared out of the question. considered by the administration.
Press secretary Ronald L. Ziegler said it now appears that a month · long effort to reach a voluntary agreement between contractors and the construction unions had been unproductive. But he said Nixon would not make a decision on further action until he receives a report Thursday from the Construction Industry Collective Bargaining Commission. Nixon created the commission Jan. 18 to negotiate a voluntary pact.
Dunlop met with officials attending the Miami Beach meeting of the executive council of the AFL-CIO Building and Construction Trades Department Monday, and sources said he made it clear that a wage-price freeze was the top alternative being
According to the AFL·CIO sources; Dunlop said such a freeze would apply to the construction industry only. Even so, it would be a radical departure from Nixon's adamant refusal to use government controls to influence the economy,
Nixon would propose placing limitations of wage and price increases in the construction industry, and the Miami Beach report on Dunlop's conversation with AFL-CIO leaders was the first disclosure the administration was considering an outright freeze.
authority to order wage-price controls last year,· but Nixon said at the time he did not want the authority and did not intend to use it. Since last year, however, building industry wage increases have averaged nearly 16 percentabout twice that of the rest of the economy.
Ziegler did not dispute disclosures by John T. Dunlop, head of the commission, that wage and price controls wer;J being seriously considered. Ziegler noted that Dunlop, dean of the faculty of Harvard University, hac;! told Labor Secretary James D. Hodgson that a voluntary

Unions to Resist Wage-Price Freeze MIAMI BEACH (UP!) - Sen.
Hubert H. Humphrey joined organized labor Tuesday in opposing a possible wage · price -and · profits freeze in the construction indus~y and accused the Nixon Administration of flexing "its muscle."
"This is a piecemeal approach to what is a much bigger problem," Humphrey told newsmen after with the AFL·CIO Executive Council.
The former vice president said it was unfair to single out one indus try in the fight against
inflation, and added that the administration never saw fit "to put a wage and price freeze on interest rates that raped the country for two years."
AFL-CIO President George Meany said unions would exert "considerable resistance" to any freeze plan such as the one now under consideration by the administration.
Humphrey said "if there's to be a wage and price freeze, you've got to put it across the board, over the entire economy."
But the Minnesota Senator said he was not proposing a general wage · price freeze or even that President Nixon limit the size of wage and price increases.
The administration reportedly would continue a construction freeze only un tH labor and management voluntarily agreed to hold wage and price increases to more modest levels. Wage increases negotiated last year by building trade unions averaged nearly 16 percent a year, about twice that for other unions in the economy.
According to AFL-CIO sources, Dunlop said the administration was considering creation of a special board to administet' any controls that Nixon might order to regulate wage and price increases in the cons~uction industry.
Ziegler, meanwhile, said the White House was pleased about the decision of several major banks to lower their price interest rate from 6 percent to 5 3/4 percent.
"We certainly are pleased to see the cost of money lowered," Ziegler told reporters. "We feel this reflects an adjustment in the economy leading to a substantial growth path."
Senate Confirms Appointments

Horn Receives Opposition in Final Vote The state Senate yesterday
confirmed the appointments of Calvin Horn of Albuquerque and Austin Roberts of Farmington to the UNM Board of Regents.
Roberts, a former House majority leader, and Horn, a partner in the Horn Oil Co., were selected earlier this month by Gov. Bruce King to succeed Norris Bradbury of Los Alamos and L. H. Wilkinson of Albuquerque, whose terms expired Dec. 31. Roberts and Horn will serve until Jan. 1, 1977.
Roberts was confirmed 40·0 but Horn ran into opposition from a small group of senators led by Sen. Alex Martinez (D..Santa Fe). The final vote for Horn was 37-3, with Sens. Junio Lopez ( R ·San Miguel) and Edmundo Delgado (D..Santa Fe) joining Martinez in opposing Horn's appointment.
Martinez said King should have
,. consulted the Senate before making his appointments, and that Wilkinson was replaced on the board because he is a Republican. Both Horn and Roberts are Democrats.
Sen. Ike Smalley (D - Sierra -Hidalgo - Luna), chairman for the LUSC, said the UNM Regents in the past have delegated their authority to administration, faculty and students contrary to lawful requirements. He called UNM "second rate to New Mexico State" because the regents have not retained enough control.
Smalley also cited what he called a four · to -one split among board members, with most of the
board wanting to continue the regents' present policy of delegation of authority, and Regent Walter Wolf of Gallup wanting to reorganize the board.
Roberts noted state Jaw provides for the regents to reorganize every year, and said he thought the board would be "remiss" not to reorganize, He added delegation of authority should be directly through the president of the University.
Horn commented the regents will "look to the president to run the University." However, he said he thought the governor "wants a new image" for the University.

Dorm residents want coed dorms, according to a Residence Hall Council (RHC) survey in which 51 percent of the questionnaires were returned. ·
"I was surprised by the many retut~ns. Out of 1994 questionnaires sent out, we got back 1020," saic;l Pat Griego, RHC member.
A total of 849 residents responded in favor of coed dorms, 414 men and 435 women, while only 47 students responded negatively, 16 men and 31 women.
For those who were not in favor of coed living, there will probably be separate dorms, Griegos said. "The smaller dorms like Alvarado, Santa Ana, Santa Clara and Onate will most likely remain the same," said Griegos. · It has not yet been decided what type of living situation will take effect if and when coed dorms become a reality. Most students· polled preferred alternating rooms or suites ort the same floor, although a large number said they preferred alternating floors. ·
Coed. dorms would. not necessarily attract more residents,

according to the survey. When asked if the existence of coed halls would influence a decision to live in the halls, 426 students said yes and 40 3 said no.
"The bad food would keep me away " said one dorm resident. "It d~esn't really matter if they're coed, I just don't like the food."
Most students voiced no desire for requirements for eligibility to live in coed dorms. 418 residents replied negatively but 392 said they would prefer requirements.
Requirements for living in coed dorms might include parental permission if under 21, date of housing contract (most are served on a first come, first serve basis), upperclassmen only, proportionate class representation, or grade point requirement.
Most dorm residents preferred continuation of the present first come, first serve system, although a large group Wanted upperclnssmen only. .
The data compiled by the RHC are to be used by th·e Sub·CommHte·e on Variable Housing and the Student Sub-Committee on Variable Housing.
Chicano students at UNM have obtained 7 4 signatures on a petition supporting "Los Chicanos" at NMSU in their attempt to keep Avelino Gutierrez on the NMSU Board of Regents.
Gutierrez was appointed last summer, but there are rumors that he may be replaced. He will not be able to complete his term unless Gov. Bruce King submits his name to the Senate, and he is confirmed. "Los Chicanos" have also received backing in their efforts from U.S. Senator Joseph Montoya.
They met with King on Monday and urged Gutierrez be retained to prevent "any unorderly demonstrations or disorders." The group, led by An<lrew Chaves, reported the governor was noncommittal. Concerning Gutierrez they said, "he .has shown us that he is aware of the problems facing the Chicano students on the NMSU campus."
UMAS (United MexicanAmerican Students) and "Las Chicanas" plan to send their petitions to Santa Fe when they have collected enough signatures.
Heady's comment came during a discussion of a proposal to be presented to the state legislature asking for an increase in faculty salaries.
Because of the crowded classrooms experienced at UNM this year, Graduate School Dean George P. Springer said the faculty should give some consideration to screening both graduate and undergraduate students prior to their admission.
{The exact extent of this semester's increase over last year is not yet known, but growth of the student body last year was double that of the predictions made by the Board of Educational Finance (BEF). The legislature bases part of the university's appropriations on the BEF's projected s~udent increase.)
The proposal calling for higher faculty salaries, which was drafted by economics professor Gary Hufbauer, was adopted by a wide margin on a voice vote.
"'fhe annual percentage gain in average faculty salaries," the resolution says, "should be at
Heady warned that the words "real productivity" might be misleading since the BEF has in the past based "productivity" on an ever increasing faculty to student ratio.
Sanford Cohen, economics department chairman, however, said the formula is based on principles of collective bargaining which have been in existence for a number of years.
UNM, said Heady, is below the national average of faculty salaries for four-year universities with ·graduate programs.
A second resolution by Hufbauer for a salary increase of seven percent for fiscal year 1971·72.
Inflation, according to a memo circulated at ,the meeting, trimmed away 20 percent of all faculty salary gains since 1966.
Salaries of non-academic personnel at UNM, it was noted, also require increases. At present, they are 13 to 14 percent lower than the average wage in Albuquerque, Heady said.
