“Youth and Dissent,” by
Kenneth Keniston. Harcourt
Brace Jovanovich. Inc., New
York. 400 p.p., $2.95.
‘Youth and Dissent” is a
series of essays seeking to
answer one of the most crucial
problems of America in the
1970 s student uprisings. Its
author, a noted sociologist who
has studied and worked closely
with college students for more
'

than a decade, succeeds in
presenting a rational analysis of
the roots of student dissent
and in calming the fears of
those who find campus unrest
a source of great anxiety.
In his very readable essays,
Kenneth Keniston argues that
the very nature of modern
American society has given rise
to a class of affluent, well
educated young people who
find adulthood stagnating and
who are dissatisfied with the
culture they have inherited. He
argues that their desire for
change is healthy for the
American social system. This
analysis of a problem that has
been largely ignored by
sociologists is a valuable
contribution to American liter-

Joseph Wambaugh, in his
novel, “The New Centurians,”
provides a fresh thoughtful
insight into the lives of
America’s most criticized and
least understood public
servants policemen.

veteran of the Los Angeles
police force, delves into the
shady, grotesque world of
whores, fruits and murderers a
Los Angeles policeman comes
face to face with every day.

“So You Want to Buy a
Mobile Home," by Al Griffin,
pocket Books, 192 pp.. $1.50.
Despite his folksy style, and
intermittent barbs aimed at
construction unions, Al Griffin
has written an informative
guide to purchasing a mobile
home. The work is all-inclusive,
from selecting the type of
home, financing it, moving it
to the home site, buying
accessories, landscaping and
selling a used home.
Selecting and buying a
mobile home can be
frustrating, time consuming
and expensive, but Griffin
eliminates most of the hassles
involved in buying and

Agrarian reform is making
peasants masters of their
economic destiny in southern
Chile.
Stripping big landowners of
most of their property and
giving the land to peasants has
been among the basic goals of
President Salvador Allende
since taking office in
November. 1970.
This month. Allende will
expropriate Chile’s last big
privately owned farm to
complete the first stage of one
of his government’s most
controversial programs.
Aiscn Province reflects the
dramatic struggle throughout
Chile between peasants
supported by the government
and wealthy families whose
days as landowners are
numbered.
makes intelligent criticism of a
fledgling industry that has
more than its share of
quick-buck artists.
Also the author of “So
You’d Like to Buy an
Airplane,” and “So You Want
to Buy a House,” Griffin
knows what he writes about,
and his writing is aimed at the
mobile home buyer: a family,
usually without children,
making between $8,000 and
$10,000 per year.

“M/F,” by Anthony
Burgess. Ballantine Books, 214
pp , $1 25
Anthony Burgess’ new
book deals with incest, the
American spirit of adventure,
rebellion and relative morality,
all within the space of some
200-odd pages. To accomplish
this, Burgess takes us on a
wheeling, spinning odyssey
through the troubled life of
Miles Faber, hero, as he meets
tremendous tribulations in his
quest for an unknown artist
and for his own sister.
Playing tricks with
language, Burgess forces the
reader’s concentration to be
placed squarely on Miles Faber
and the people he meets. It is a
terribly funny book, with an
excellent sense of humor
displayed throughout and it
changes our attitudes when we
have finished - which is as
much as any novel can do.
Like all of Burgess’ previous
novels, this one defies rigid
classification and provides a
look at one more facet of
Burgess’ mind. It is a book
which will take some effort on
the part of the reader, but he
will find it worth the trouble.

Prosecution
ends case
SAN JOSE, Calif. (UPI) -
Angela Davis wrote in her
“love diary” that she was
“totally intoxicated” with
George Jackson, the
prosecution told the jury
Monday in concluding its
murder -kidnap-conspiracy case
against her.
The prosecution contends
the diary shows that Ms. Davis’
passion for Jackson was so
great that she armed and
plotted an attempt to free him
from prison that ended with
the August, 1970, shootings at
the Marin County courthouse.

In a regular business
meeting before beginning the
budget hearings tonight the
Senate approved the judiciary
committee’s appointments,
ended the activitit of its
investigating commit *c, and
established a committee on
political pressure.
On motions by Charles
Hall, Graduate, chiarman of
the judiciary committee, Judy
Elizabeth Du nance was
approved by a vote of 48-16
and Charles A. Morris was
approved 51-11 for the judicial
council. Three-fourths of the
senators voting were required to
approve the appointees.
With two-thirds approval
required, Fred Miles was
approved as director of the
defender-advocate society.
Also approved by the same
majority for temporary
appointment to the summer
main court were: Thomas
Edward Tante IV, Gloria
Lovelace Lewis, Ronald Steven
Reese, Roy D. Tritt, and Linda
Kay McRorie.
A motion to table the
judicial appointments until the
appointees appeared before the
Senate was defeated.
Rob Thomson, chairman of
the Senate investigation
committee announced that his
committee had suspended
activities. “We decided at our
last meeting that the Rymer
investigation would be ended
unless something special comes
up,” Thomson said.
“Our decision is that Ken
Willis (editor of the Red and
Black) was justified in his
suspicions but . . . conclusive
proof would be virtually
impossible to get our hands
on,” Thomson said.
The Senate approved
unanimously the establish! t
of a committee on poli,*cal
pressure on a motion by David
Bell, Arts and Sciences. The
committee is to establish direct
communications to parents,
alumni, and legislators.
A motion by Jay Peacock,
Arts and Sciences, to
reconsider Kim Cody, whose
appointment as admissions
adviser was rejected by the
Senate, failed 29-24.
Two-thirds approval was
needed for the reconsideration.
The failure of the
reconsideration motion will
prevent Cody from being
re-appointed to the position.
