Beyond The Square
Cambodia’s Request Puts
Nixon In Ticklish Spot
By Barbara Homey
In the last few weeks Cambodia seems to have emerged as a
new potential trouble spot in Southeast Asia. The recent coup
ci'etat and setting up of a new government, which American of
ficials at first thought might be beneficial to the U. S. cause, now
seems incapable of winning the support of the Cambodian people
and of stabilizing the domestic political situation.
Then last week the Cambodian government requested military
aid from the U. S. to help repulse North Vietnamese and Viet Cong
troops stationed along the Eastern border of Cambodia. This re
quest has put Nixon in a very ticklish political dilemma. The Cam
bodian army does not possess the amount of men or equipment to
defeat the Vietnamese communists by itself, and Nixon knows this.
He also knows, however, how much opposition there is in the
U. S. to our becoming any more involved in Southeast Asia than
we already are.
U. S. military officials are declaring that we ought to support
the Cambodian government, at least materially, if not with our
presence; but most civil officials tend to disagree, stating that any
wider involvement in Southeast Asia would greatly harm our
chances of winning a diplomatic settlement there.

World Campus Afloat
is a college that does more
than broaden horizons.
It sails to them and beyond.
Again in the 1970-71 academic year, the World
Campus Afloat program of Chapman College and
its associated Colleges and Universities will take
qualified students, faculty and staff into the
world laboratory.
Chapman College currently is accepting
applications for both the fall and spring semesters.
Preliminary applications also may be made for
all future semesters.
Shipboard classes are held between ports
aboard the s.s. Ryndam which has been equipped
with classrooms, laboratories, library, student
union, dining room and dormitories.
In-port opportunities, integral to accredited
coursework taught aboard ship, add the
dimension of on-the-spot field research experience
to formal classroom learning.
Fall semesters depart New York for port
stops in the Mediterranean and Latin America,
ending in Los Angeles. Spring semesters circle
the world from Los Angeles, stopping in Asia and
Africa and ending at New York.
