Reactions To Social Disgraces • A »•__ .1! o I Students Set 1968 Winners! New York, New York, March I3 1968—The dynamic campaign effort by college students from all over the country clearly played a vital role in Senator Eugene McCarthy’s impressive showing in the New Hampshire primary. Well over a thousand students took on the full gamut of campaign jobs—from ring ing door bells and writing speeches, to driving cars and licking stamps. Many observers believe the stu dents’ enthusiasm also had a signi ficant psychological effect on the campaign. Reaction to this student political activism was widespread in both pre- and post-election analysis. Just prior to the New Hampshire vote, Mary McGory wrote in her na tionally syndicated column that Mc Carthy’s student support was “a river of free labor that could change the face of American politics.” Most of the election-night commentators referred to the students, and in its lead editorial this morning, the New York Times stated that the Mc Carthy victory was “a testament to the efforts of the students and other citizens who enlisted in his cam paign for peace.” Perhaps the most important con elusion to be drawn from this first 1968 primary is not related either to the candidates or the issues. It is very possibly something much broader. Namely that effective, articulate expression of political opinion by students, combined with their active participation in the political process, can significantly affect the outcome of elections and ANNOUNCEMENT *he shape of American politics.

(ACP) Adorned in rollers and bath robe, the University of Texas coed charged down the stairs of her boarding house and flew into the dining room. She plopped down in her chair in the middle of the din ner prayer. Busily helping herself to every thing available, Paulette Silverman, senior special education major, placed her elbows on the table, thus hindering her left-handed neighbor to the right. She made her way through the meal in similar fashion. When the dessert was served, she ungraciously remarked, “It’s about this fly in my banana pudding.” Silence enveloped the room. Miss Silverman lit a cigarette and as she smoked it, flicked the ashes in her bowl. When finished, she smothered the cigarette in her pud ding, tossed her napkin aside, and left. Miss Silverman is not a social misfit—she was violating a social norm as part of an experiment in a sociology course. Social Disorgan ization. She and her classmates were to find out how the average Amer ican reacts to the violation of a norm. Is he apathetic or does he im pose sanctions and censure the deviants ? The hypothesis was that through social unconcern, many people are helping to create a de personalized society. The hypothesis was generally supported, the Daily Texan report ed. In Miss Silverman’s case, de- viancy was met with expressions of disgust, dismay, and bewilderment. but no vocal sanctions were directed at her either during or after the meal. The entire group merely ignored her, seemingly denying her presence. Another student, Marsha Zidell, ventured into grocery stores and (with managerial consent) sampled food off the shelves. She unwrapped meat for a closer smell, tasted ice cream with a plastic spoon lifted from a convenient package nearby, and even bit an apple and replaced it for all to see. Witnesses seemed shocked and curious, but no one voiced concern about her actions and no one re ported her. Students who filled wine and beer bottles with water and drank from them in the union were met with stares of disapproval and amaze ment but no direct censorship. “Our purpose,” said Dr. James A. Williams, assistant professor of sociology, “was to question if the informal sanctions are breaking down. The modern world has begun to rely on the ‘don’t get involved’ attitude. As we don’t get involved (because we don’t know as many people), we rely more on formal control through police and law en forcement agencies.” DUNCAN MUSIC COMPANY, Inc. “Music of All Kinds'" "Music of all kinds . . . for the serious student of music or the hobby musician.
