Declaration Of 7
Independence?
"~ 'Can you stilT recognize me among so many hoardes waving
so many arms calling down the wrath of some supreme being upon
each other? Is it possible to remember me now, when for you
the world has become so monstrous and life so brittle? If you
can recall my name among the thousands of uncertain words they
scream at you like "duty"«'Eneiny'y«eliminate*\please forgive me
for writing today. You see I've /chosen the worst of days to write,
today is July 4th. I am sorry this particular date had the arrogance
to fall on my writing day, but many things seem to fall on the wrong
days lately for the wrong persons. I guess I should be very impressive
and quote something appropriate ,like "the,time is oulof
joint", they've always seemed to please you, but I've somehow lost
the heart for that. .' \
Oh, why is the fourth such a wrong day?- I'm unsure, but I^think'
is has something to do with you. July 4th is a day very sacred to
some people because it is supposed to be the day when'God will most
certainly hear American prayers for the way we want peace or war
or - whatever we want. And ior~ other people it is a scriligious
celebration, the supreme ritual which turns iconoclast because
America is the anointed archetype of all villainy. Remember what"
you said about fighting the one grand abstract war, oppression vs.
liberation, Lucifer vs. Michael, and how you could riot be proud to
join the myth, especially when your country has to play both roles.
- You -were even so disloyalto say the war was not proud, you said it
was humiliating. No, I am not betraying my country to you or anyone,
I know patriotism. It was one of our former presidents who,
when asked if God were on our side in' 1 the war, said he always thought
it was" more important if he were on God's side. But he was very
odd, Mr. Lincoln. | > I \
FARAWAY IN ASIA..
It is strange, my friend, but-it will be hard forme to send you
this letter as' it is to write it. But let me talk about that later,
I can't write off what you are doing somewhere in Asia/ it does
" not convince me 1 that you are\ the personification of righteousness,
you or any of us. Yet here' I stand watching the hands clapping,
flag waving crowds shouting'about the cause and across the street
some people demonstate with flames, their hands look like other

' We • have soiled - this day each -in our own style; but perhaps I
write because I think we might be able to celebrate this 4th, in

its submission to our approval. That too, is a celebration, don't

COOL WINTERS ???/
Your last letter, the one about how cool the winters really are
in Viet Nam wasn't convincing.' The paper wes shrivelled where
your hand sweated hi blotches -on the letter, perhaps while you -
pondered too long over the*hext- word. -I'm gland you d^d though,
they-were words worthy-of-your-serenity of, mind. I always said •
you should have been another Mahatmayoa idiot, instead of a soldier.
Nerve mind, I forgive you. But would you.please omit that p.s.wish-you-were-here
footnote in each letter v Some humor! I canft
blame^ you; a man has to smile occasionally even in Asian winters.
They say-you're a lunatic, you know. That's myfault again. They
wanted to know why you were fighting in some rice field if you don't
believe in it-all. First, I said in my most serious voice, "In a rice
field!". £>h, they don't fight in that much, they only sleep there! Then' -
I felt very sich about the ridicule, and told them what a real person
you are and what your typical faraway words < tried to tell me, in ,<
hoping my dried blood would flow again. So I told, them that you;
felt you were guilty, thatyour' hand somehow cut a wound, even if;
a very small one, into someone else, perhaps "without knowing it. !
And to hell with ideologists you said. Hate caused this war, every war 1
and if at anytime any where we-have ever hated even for a moment,
then* we too have bur share in the war. And you weren't proud of
that. You said,' (oh, you are an ass) that you had to fight because
this was your, war; "fault" was the word you used, and that you
felt you must'accept your, part of the pain. How they shook their
heads in disgust when you admitted you hoped somehow tosacrifice.
a little more than to inflict So, you see what a"wonderful cor-.
respondent I am. In one interview I ruined your reputation. I
don't feel ashamed of that; you.alwaysprtded yourself .on not being
curdened by^reputation. I-suppose you should thank me then. Yes,
look what your "disreputable" creeds brought you, an Asian winter,

A CHANGE OF ADDRESS
"i -
Yes, I find it very difficult for the first time to send you a letter.
Impossible. The other day I received notice that you - how do they
say it - "suffered a change of address" - "deceased in service"
or something. Letters are no longer in use you know, for us. I guess
they would call this piece of writing posthumously received - isn't
that the word? Has my friend suffered enough, his share? f have
even been writing in the wrong tense>v I think it would have been
proper to use the past definite. But you won't ever reprove me for
that. Everything seems too definite and past, but perhaps somehow
their is a kind of triumph in this. I thought you would have wanted to
celebrate this your triumph, so forgive me, and even if you would,
recognize me.

Revolutionary War
by Au Trong Thanh (CPS)
Editor's Note: Au Trong
Thanh, former finance and economic
minister of.South Viet
Nam, was kept from running for
president in the South Vienamese
elections because he planned to
campaign on a peace platform.
He has received several,invitations
to speak :n/ the/ United
States, but at present-the Sai-_
gbn Goverijment has refused to
let him go. This article, written
shortly before the Vietnamese
election, explains how he believes
peace can be brought to
Viet Nam. It was given exclusively
to Collegiate Press Service
by Tran_Van Dim, Vietnamse
journalist and -CPS
columnist. \
Up. until now, all efforts made
to end or escalate the war have
proven ineffective. Violence,
which is normal in a convention­
''" Why so? Because of the lack
of time for an analysis of the
.facts with due consideration to
the genuine opinions of the materials
of the country in which
the war is being-waged. It is
now the right time to fill this gap
and to find in a rational way an
approach' to the notion of peace
within the- context "of a.revolutionary
war, , " ~ -
REVOLUTIONARY WAR
• Generally speaking, it takes
some time to start a revolution-ary
war. because the simple and
primitive. • can be politically
' transformed only under particu- '
.lar circumstances and with time..
In practice, the "circumstances
most conducive to a rapid and
violent explosion of.a revolu­
tionary- war, can be found in .the '
negative attitudes of the colonial .
power which refuses to grantgenuine
independence to the colonized
people, a fact that crystallizes
all the will of liberation of the
people.
In" the- case of Vietnam,, the
mechanism has been launched
by the.armed struggle to regain '
national independence. Once the -
mechanism has been launched,
the process of development-of"
the liberation, war went on 'a
* self-feeding system, because a
war- waged on a larger scale
strengthens the factors found at
the start of a revolutionary war.
In effect, an ideological war
with foreign intervention thatfollowi
the war for independence
does worsen the thirst for national
sovereignty.
EFFECTS OF THE WAR
- Also the war, in alienating the
city folks from the farmers causes
more social injustice, creating
at the same time among city
folks a widening gap between
war profiteers and war sufferers
and thus aggravates a dangerous
social imbalance.

Pianist Lectures For
Cultural Committee
Through the efforts of Brother
Sweeney, co-chairman of the Cultural
Committee, Marist College
was host to Hanus A. Schimmerling,
composer and pianist. Mr.,
Schimmerling lectured h\ the
Fireplace lounge on September
27th. He informed the'members
of the student body and other interested
guests, .of the'fblk music
traditions of southeastern European
countries. '
He initiated the lecture by outlining
the areas concerned - the
Slavic nations. Mr. Schimmerling
then proceeded to-demonstrate
how folk music in southeastern
Europe was influenced
by customs, language, governments,
and, in particular, geography."
According to Mr. Schimmerling,'
a folk song reflects the
geographical location from which
it originated. A song, although
similar'in theme,,.will differ
in Its musical structure in accordance
with its physical situation.
;
Mr. Schimmerling was able toprovide
graphic examples of his
theory by actually playing the'
folk songs on the.-piano. Accompanying'
Mr. Schimmerling
was Miss Jane.Pauker of Kingston,
New^York. '.Miss Pauker,
who /sang in five foreign languages,
has accompianied Mr.
Schimmerling- on. various concert
tours. • - "; ;
Originally Mr. Schimmerling
is from Brno, Moravia (Czechoslovakia).
Now he 1 resides in
Woodstock, New York. He ; grad'i-
.ated from the University of
Vienna, and later studied at the
Conservatory in Prague.
Dr. Bobbin Explores Theory
Doctor J. M. Bobbitt,a noted
chemist and professor of chemistry
at the University of Con-necticut,
spoke in the' Marist
Theattier as the ,guest of the
Poughkeepsie chaper of the American
Chemical Society. Dr.
Bobbitt's topic was "Applications
of Thin Layer Chromotography."
Although not intended for the un- "
initiated, there were a number of
students' in attendance, presumably
qualified enough to follow the
lecture. .. -.
"Chromotography is a method
used to seperate compounds by
taking advantage of physical properties
such as polarity and

Newburgh, was sponsored by TAC
(Thought, Communication, Action).

a Christian must strive to

She is working with a possible

only a limited audience may attend

bers of the Mystical Body, acts

from forming this community on
earth.
Father Jude attended a Christian
Family Movement workshop
at Notre Dame "University last
summer where Mr. and Mrs.
Dan Luci of Oakland} California
suggested the formation of - a
Peace Academy which would be
government sponsored. Graduates
would be expected to put in a
certain amount oftimein theser-
vice of peace. Father Jude alsorecommended
that people in high
government and diplomatic positions
come- from the -ranks of-
/ graduates of this Peace Academy
rather than having broad mili?
, tary backgrounds.
In the quest for Peace, he advocated
accepang-any suffering
in .the struggle to form this community
rather than resorting to
violence In solving problems.
Thus, the blood of martyrs would
be the seed of this, community.
v.
Addicts Seek Help
The plight of the drug addict,
similar to that of the alcoholic,
can be a lonely one. In the attempt
to cure the loneliness, a
feeling of community-is sought.
On-this concept is the House of
Synanon said to be founded. _ '.'
The house, run by the'Synanon s
Foundation, is managed totally by
addicts for addicts. Begun a
' little over five years ago by
Charles Diedrich in California,
Synanon has grown to seven hous­
es. These are presently located ..
;in Detroit, Manhattan, Tanners -
,ville, and four houses on the West
Coast. The mem!;ers of this
group reside in the house, with
houses holding approximately
thirty residents.
The center of .activity^at Synanon
Is the Game. Accordingto
Dietrich, "The"Game isn't therr
apy; 'it's fun. It's like playing
tennis. You play for fun, not to
.develop you? leg muscles. But
while you're playing and enjoyr
ing yourself, your leg muscles
may strengthen as a side-effect."
Also known as "attack therapy",
the Game is intended to bring
about a spirit of honesty among
its players. Knocking down all
of one's - false barriers and-images,
the .Game is then intended -
to enable one to see himself as ,
he is, - by seeing himself as he -
appears J,toi.others.; Then, pos-._
sibly, the cause of his addiction
may be discovered and he maybe
able to help himself recover. .-
Synanon is not limited to resi- -,
dents. 'The Synanon Game Club
is open to any outsider who is'
interested in Synanon either indirectly
by donations or directly *
by the Game.
In - an interview with Joseph
O'Connell, it "was learned that
there already are six students of
Marist actively involved with
Synanon, and-a few others have
shown, interest.''- The Synanon'
House in Tannersville hosts an
Open House each Saturday even- ...
ing, at which anyone who cares
to may come either to watch or to -
play die Game. There are- onlyv
two laws at-Synanon: no chemicals,
especially drugs and liquor,
and no violence. For those who
may be interf sted in learning about
Synanon, there is a lecture
and a forum on campus being
planned for the very near future.
St. Joseph's Convent on Lafayette Place in Downtown Poughkeepsie
is the new home of eight Marist Student Brothers under the Directorship
of Bro. John Bosco. The small community is an experiment
which was started last year in a house on Academy Street.

Somewhere In The Council J/ Goldwater Speaks Out
" 'Lately, some people on ^ampus '

has been a predictable flurry of
business speculation as'a result.
"Of course," these would-be eny

ary. I think it unfortunate that
most of these fledglingbusiness- *'
esare offering services hither-
- to-fore - rendered gratis. The.
_ 'council's reaction, as usual, is
many things, but mostly com;c.
With a few names and circumstances
changed to protect something
or other, the discussion
runs like this:
v Mr. Slat (alias-Mr. Hammond):
"I have a letter from a Mr. Van
Sull, requesting permission to
operate a 'sleep-in' business on
campus. The purpose of the
business will be to enable students
to 'sleep-in' undisturbed by -
blaring record players, classes
and other such noises until at
least 2 PM. The rates are listed
here and seem reasonable."
Mr. Bossman: "Is Mr.- Van
Sull here? Ah yes...have you
checked this with Mr. Nibot of
the Sandwich Control Board?"
Van Sull: "Yes, he told me it

action would be per-

On Viet Nam Policy
Former U. S. Senator Barry '
Goldwater was the featured guest
speaker ac Dutchess Community
College on October 5th. Mr.
Goldwater's topic was "U. S.
Policy in Viet Nam". The lecture
was part of Dutchess'
Lyceum Series which will present
Senator Wayne Morse in the
near future, speaking on the same
topic, but from a different angle.
Mr. Goldwater pointed out that
the United States is still a comparative.lyyoung
country, and as
su~;h has made, and is still making
mistakes. He stressed his
belief that there should be debate
on U. S. involvement in the war,
but that is should be debate on
U. S. involvement in the war, but
that it should take place after the'
war has been won. For now, he
urges all Americans to- support
President Johnson and the country's
position as a world power.
Based on his personal observa- '
tions and discussion with others -
knowledgeble on the situation, he
expressed his belief that the war
is going better than the American
public is led to believe.
Mr. Goldwater also stated that
he is not in favor of increasing
the volume of U. S. bombing of
Norm Vietnam, but that the list
of targets should be changed.
One proposal was to inform Ho
Chi Minn that on a specific date
the dock area of Haiphong would
be bombed. This would give foreign
ships the opportunity to clear
port, avoiding an international
incident, and result only in die
destruction of port facilities. Mr.
Goldwater feels that this is sufficient
to hasten the end of hostilities.
Goldwater surprised his audience
with the statement that if he
had been in the Senate at the time,
he would have opposed the Gulf
of Tonkin Resolution, because he
believes it gave too much undefined
power to the President and
renages on much of the power of
the Senate.
The afternoon ended with Mr.
Goldwater answering a question
of no relevance to his topic, but
in answering he showed the most
enxtion of die day. When asked
what) he thought of the younger
generation, Goldwater expressed
his great faith in young people and
stated that the public should be
told more about juvenile decency.

bounced off the uprights for an unsuccessful
attempt, C.U.'s scoring

Future - concentration on

of plays should shape the
team to a powerful composite.
The center fullback, McCleary,
is just beginning to make the defense
jell with the aid of goalie,
Paul Sicilia. When Bro. Isidore
returns to the line-up, the hooters
will have a much stronger
defense than the one shown against
Kings College.
