U.S. planes back
South Viet attack
SAIGON (UPl)—South Viet
namese troops backed by
American planes launched a
new 45,000-man drive around
Saigon today in an effort to
slow the tempo of Viet Cong
attacks which rose by 72 per
cent throughout South Vietnam
last week.
The South Vietnamese milita
ry command announced the
new operation and said it was
spearheaded by Saigon troops
withdrawn last week from
Cambodia to meet the increas
ing Communist threat inside
South Vietnam.
To the north in the Central
Highlands, four waves of
Thailand-based 852 bombers hit
a communist stronghold known
as base area 609 near the point
where Laos, Cambodia and
South Vietnam come together.
UPI correspondent Donald A.
Davis reported from Pleiku, 230
miles north of Saigon, said the
852 s dropped more than 350

tons of explosives in the
highlands in the fourth consecu
tive day of the most sustained
aerial attacks in the area in
nearly two years.
The aim of the raids and the
new campaign near Saigon was
to take the steam out of a
Communist buildup apparently
planned for the Tet or lunar
new year, which falls Feb. 15
this year. That would be just
before President Nixon’s visit
to Peking on Feb. 21.
Five Gls Killed
As the new South Vietnamese
operation was disclosed, the
U.S. command announced that
five Gls were killed in Vietnam
battlefield action last week to
bring to 45,637 the number of
Americans killed in more than
11 years of fighting in Vietnam.
A total of 390 South Vietnamese
were killed.
The South Vietnamese death
toll when compared with the
221 killed the previous week
along with the 1,034 Communist
troops killed following the 800
slain the week before served to
reflect the stepped-up ground
fighting.
A South Vietnamese ranger
unit was shelled by Commu
nists Wednesday and later
ambushed 25 miles northwest of
Saigon near the Michelin
rubber plantation.
The South Vietnamese com
mand said the rangers killed 10
Viet Cong while suffering one
killed and four wounded. All
five South Vietnamese casual
ties were caused by a land
mine, military spokesmen said.
The U.S. command said one
American helicopter crewman
was wounded Wednesday when
a U.S. Army AHI Cobra
gunship was shot down 13 miles
southeast of the old imperial
capital of Hue, 390 miles north
of Saigon.

Suit filed
A $5,000 damage suit has been
filed against three young men
who were arrested in connec
tion with November’s shooting
qrree which resulted in the
death of a horse and damage to
signs and windows in businesses
throughout the county and city.
The suit was filed by Jerry
Higgins, owner of the horse,
against Roger Clyde Dye, Fred
Gibson Jr. and Ronnie
Chambers. It alleges that the
defendants did willfully and
wantonly shoot and bring about
the death of the horse, valued at
SSOO, and the shooting of said
animal was the sole and
proximate result of the
malicious conduct of the defen
dants.
The plaintiff asks $5,000
punitive damages, plus at
torney’s fees and court ex
penses.

Dr. Cauthen
Griffin
native
publishes
Dr. Kenneth Cauthen, a
native of Griffin, has published
his fourth book under the title
“Christian Biopolitics.” A
former pastor of the Locust
Grove Baptist Church, Dr.
Cauthen is now professor of
Christian Theology at Colgate-
Rochester Bexley Hall Crozer in
Rochester, New York. His latest
book was chosen as the Novem
ber selection of the Religious
Book Club.
“Christian Biopolitics” deals
with the problems mankind
must face as he moves toward
the year 2,000. Among these
problems, according to the
book, are nuclear war, popula
tion pressures, hunger, poverty
in the underdeveloped nations,
pollution, and the use of natural
resources. Dr. Cauthen asserts
that these are world-wide
challenges and must be tackled
as such. The theme of the book
is that if these problems are to
be solved, mankind must ex
perience a basic change in
ideas, attitudes, and goals. The
church, the author contends,
should strive to provide the
goals that the human race
requires out of its heritage of
Biblical faith.
A graduate of Mercer Univer
sity, he also holds degrees from
Yale Divinity School, Emory
University, and Vanderbilt
University.
Dr. Cauthen taught at Mercer
before joining the Crozer
faculty in 1961.
Dr. Cauthen is the son of Mr.
and Mrs. J. W. Cauthen, who
live on the Zebulon road.
