Regardless of the moti-
vies of those participating in a
movement such as the Viet
nam Moratorium, the end
result of their acts is to aid
and abet the enemies of the
United States of America and
the enemies of freedom,”
declared Gov Lester Maddox
in a recent campus appear
ance sponsored by the Univer
sity Union
Speaking to a packed house
ir. the Memorial Hall ball
room last week the governor
dr> w some disapproval from
his audience with his com
ments on various topics, espe
cially the Vietnam war and
moratorium
Refering to the morato
rium. the governor said many
well-intentioned persons were
committing accidental trea
son, and others were commit
ting deliberate treason
The short range goal of the
leaders of the moratorium is
to end the war in Vietnam by
handing victories to the ene-

mies of the United States,
said Maddox
"The long range goal is to
overthrow the government of
the United States and replace
it with a form of Communism
which form has not been di-
cided
MADDOX SAID the war in
Vietnam must be ended, but it
must not be ended by the un
conditional surrender of the
United States
"Certainly, in my opinion,
we never should have gone
into Vietnam." he said. "I
think we re there because we
surrendered to communism in
Cuba and we compromised
with it in Korea," the gover
nor declared
“AND WE FEED,
house and clothe it in
Washington, D C. and other
parts of this country,"
he added
Laughter and disapproving
rumblings greeted that com
ment and prompted a scolding
from the speaker "You invit
ed me over here to speak my
beliefs, my convictions If you
can t be young people decent
enough and respectful enough
to act like young people,
either you should go or 1
should go or you should shut
up till 1 finish."
Following the applause and
laughter generated by his
reprimand, Maddox said al
though he believes American
combat troops should never
have been sent to Vietnam, the
United States is committed
now
"IK ANY person wants to
aid the Communists and other
enemies of the United States
and hurt our country and be
tray our fighting men,” he
declared, “they should join
with the Communists, the
mistaken and the misguided
others in the moratorium ”
If they want to help the
fighting men and our counry.
they will stay out of the mora
torium. the Governor assert
ed.
Following his address.
Maddox moved to the recep
tion room upstairs to field
individual s questions. The
period was marked by some
emotional outbursts by both
questioners and the Governor
as many questioned the exec
utive on specific points
Asked about education and
integration. Maddox — stand
ing on a table so he could be
heard — queried the audi
ence, “Which do you want
first?'
“INTEGRATION,” the
crowd yelled
"That's sickening," Mad
dox retorted
As one giant voice, the au
dience retorically responded,
“Integration is sickening?"
“Yes," the governor re
plied, "when you’re telling
one people they can’t get an
education unless it’s with an
other group
‘TM NOT against integra
tion. I’m against forced inte
gration. because it’s criminal,
it's sin, it’s wrong," Maddox
explained "Because if it's
forced, you deny at least one
party the right to be free
A student accused him and
other public officials of over
looking the situation at Alto
Institute, a training institute.
The student, who said he had
been there, said conditions
were bad and prisoners were
being treated wrongly
“Any man who says I’m
overlooking Alto is a liar, in
cluding yourself if you say
that." Maddox retorted angri
ly

INEFFECTIVENESS DISCUSSED
Board Links Students, Legislature
By BECKY PART AIN

“About the only thing we
got our teeth into was the
grading system This was
probably the highlight of last
year, but it amounted to no
thing,” said former student
body president Robbie Wil
liams when discussing the
ineffectiveness of the Univer
sity System student advisory
board
The Board of Regents had
proposed a 4 5 grading system
and the students revised it to
a 4 0. Williams said.
THE STUDENT advisory
board, formulated in the
spring of 1966. is composed of
student body presidents of the
institutions in the University
System of Georgia. A group of
student leaders saw the need
for a liaison between students
and the state legislature
From this idea state senator
Mac Conway sponsored a bill
for the establishment of such
a board supported by state
funds.
“The bill did not get passed

due to the legislators fear of
radical student elements in
the board and of the possibili
ty of it becoming an influen
tial political body," said Wil
liams.
The student body presi-
uents oi Georgia Tech, Geor
gia State, and the University
revised the Conway bill and
drafted a plan acceptable to
the Board of Regents
THE STUDENT advisory
board should present facets
of university life as students
see it and should formulate
policies according to student
viewpoint rather than accord
ing to political viewpoint,”
Williams said
Williams and current stu
dent body president Randall
Seabolt agree that this body
should also serve as a liaison
between students and the
state legislature since politi
cians hold the "purse strings"
of the educational system.
However, the theoretical
purpose of this organization
and the realization of that
purpose are not the same
Seabolt said, "up to this
point the student board has
been of no value to any educa
tional institution in the
state.”
According to Williams, one
of the reasons for the ineffec
tiveness of the board is its
lack of defined purpose.
IN HLS example of the stu
dent’s effect on the grading
system decision, Williams
emphasized one of the needs
of the student board — to
come up with specific issues
they want to debate, rather
than merely debating issues
proposed by the Board of
Regents
Not only must their purpos
es be defined, but also the
procedures which must imple
ment the proposals, Seabolt
said.
“We need to analyze our
group powers and see if we
really have any. We must
question our need for exist
ence," he commented
Seabolt said he hopes in the
future that any student body
president will be able to come
before the student board and
even though his proposal ap
plies only to his institution,
receive the endorsement of
the other presidents. But Sea-
ooll sa d he is uncertain as to
whether or not these changes
will take place
“THE WHOLE set-up of
the student board was to bring
student leaders together to
formulate their own ideas and
lobby for constructive educa
tional means, but instead it is
being used as a means for the
Board of Regents to control
the students," Williams said.
At the present time either the
chancellor or the executive
secretary of the Regents su
pervises the meetings
According to Williams, the
Regent's executive secretary
Henry Neal who serves as the
primary mediator between
the two boards, is “ill-fit for
the job "
Williams' opinion is direct
ly correlated to Seabolt’s pro
posed change that would ex
clude any member of the
Regents from the meetings of
the student board. In support
of this, Williams said that
Regents should be excluded
because young people are so
susceptible to older people's
advice.
