,ruary28j^ the lance ICommGntary by ROBERT HAM [he Communist Speaker Ban Ld by the 1963 General As. and blasted by educa^ low across the state, deserves Ticlose look. Those favoring rAeal of the ban usuaUy base the^ arguments on three major First, they claim that stu. dents should not be isolated from the facts; that they should be ex. »ed to all viewpoints. This "ifine and welL However, the way to learn about Communism is not through a Communist MaKer. Communist speakers ae trained by the Party to in. »ate their listeners with lies ^ deceit. They paint a rosy piture of a social utopia, and [«ceed to capture the minds ^their duped audience. Their nito purpose is to win more C^munists or Communist sym. pftiizers through a carefully p^ned program of misguided propaganda. Nothing at all is n^tioned of what Communism Is really like. Jecond, advocates of repeal say that freedom of speech is b^ng violated. This is not so. Coinmunlsts in America have every right to freedom of speech lhat everyone else has. However, pere is a difference between ■edom of speech and the free dom to be heard. No one has the right to be heard at any place he chooses, or by any. one he wishes to hear him. So let the Communists instigate their own forums and spread the’ir propaganda at their own and at their own expense. It|s ridiculous to advocate that |the taxpayers pay for a Com. mlnist speaker so that students atftate.supported colleges may hegr the vultures of humanity oiAheir very own campus. f'hlrdly, it Is said that “aca. deinlc freedom” is violated by the law. Where and when this ter|m was coined, I don’t know. [There Is certainly nothing in the Constitution about “academ. ic I freedom.” The University, ofjeourse, should not have its cjrlculum controlled by the leg- i*ture. However, when applied to (Communists Speakers, it is my contention that this so.called "academic freedom” should be fhtly curbed. n the other hand, the speaker ban does have its faults. For Instance, a Russian scientist wishing to speak on genetics wiAld not be allowed to talk if he I was a member of the Com- m^ist Party. In this respect, perhaps the law should be wnended. On the whole, how. ever, it is a very reasonable appreciated safeguard to our erlcan freedom. ®«luarl»r8 Fop Factor Main St. Film, The Kitchen,' Here In Series, March II -12 seVjSttl SSr'VeTter describes the help4^^haU Wesher, the movie “Inll" :r^ft "■ IS the kitchen. The characters are the workers In the restaurant. The fish cook loves the waitress the vegetable cook loves the salad chef, the butcher is an alcoholic and the jokes and insults fly fast and heavy. The excitement and commotion in the kitchen reaches a cUmax when the butcher chops the gas line with the meat clever. All work stops in the restaurant and TIME magazine interprets this action as, “...symbolic of stopping the social order which prisons mankind.” TIME also says in its review of the film, “if Leftist Wesher expects movie-goers, at the end of the film, to rise and shake off their chains, he is going to be disappointed. They will hard ly have the strength to rise and put on their coats.” Gulf Oil Gives SA Cash Grant St. Andrews has received a cash grant for unrestricted use from Gulf Oil Corporation as part of their Aid-to-Education Program. The check was presented to Pre sident Ansley C. Moore by W. A. Collier of Fayetteville, area sales manager for the petroleum firm. This was one of 692 awards totaling half a million dollars.
