Poll Is Conducted By
Student Govt. Board
By a marginof just slightly better than 2-1, UNC students?
held America n"lntervention in the Middle East crisis. The exact
breakdown in voting was 333 for, 150 against and 25 undecided.
Of the 508 people who took part in the Student Government
poll of last week, 32.1 thought American action in this situation
was unnecessary.
The poll was ordered by Student Body President Curtis Cans
after last Friday's editorial page appeared in The Summer School
Weekly. It was intended to serve as a barometer of student feel
ing in this case.
The results were released last Saturday to the Associated Press
in Charlotte and-the United Press International in Raleigh. With
the results, went excerpts from last week's lead editorial. Thus far
the story has appeared in the Durham Morning Herald, Durham

Sun, Raleigh News and Observer,
Winston-Salem Journal, Chapel
Hill News Leader' and the Greens
boro Daily News. It has also
been mentioned on many of the
itate's leading. radio stations on
news and public service broad
casts. Last Saturday's census was
conducted under the supervision
of Don Dotson of the Summer
School Student Gov't. Board. Com
menting on the poll, Dotson had
this to say: "Having talked with
some of the people included ia
last week's poll ,several interest
ing points have come to light.
First, among those who favored
U. S. intervention in the Mid
East, there were many who either
did not recognize the possibility
of there being any other altern-
ative than intervention.
I "This should not be taken lo
discount the impact of the num
j ber favoring intervention so
! much -as it should indicate a con
! siderable tendancy of a good
many people to disregard, if not.
bs completely oblivious to thia
and other vital matters.
"The fact that the number of .
vnnip omvmipnf intf ait thf at-
ternatives included in the poll
and other alternatives, was about
evenly divided for and against,
while those not commenting fav
ored intervention, seems to bear
this out."
Comment also came from Cans
and Editor Davis Young of the
SSW, both of whom had columns
on the editorial page attacking
the action of the President in
sending troops to Lebanon. .
Young said, "I feel that it is
indicative that 32.1 of the Stu
dent Body feels as strongly as
they do. Note should be taken
that such a large segment of our
campus is not in what might be
termed Washington's 'majority'
camp."
Gans said, "It may be that
students felt that the action was
the only possible one when
American foreign policy failed in
the Middle East. However, it is
significant to note that a student
group which mere often than not
is critical of policy dictates of
the federal government approves

might indicate the feeling of stu-
