Senator Sam Ervin Says WASHINGTON During recent months groups of students, acting in con cert, have used physical force and threats of phy sical force to disrupt the f educational process on the campuses of some of our public and private institu tions of learning. These groups have de tained presidents, deans and administrative officers of the institutions in their offices; they have denied teachers and fellow stu dents access to buildings set apart for instructional purposes; they have seized, occupied and held build ings of the institutions for their own purposes and re fused to surrender them to academic and legal auth orities; they have obstruct ed the efforts of recruiting officers to recruit fellow students for service in the armed forces of the nation; they have assaulted admin istrative officers, teachers and fellow students who refused to cooperate with them and law enforcement officers who sought to re store order, and they have burned buildings belonging C A WIG^ A Q FATHERS DELIGHT FATHER with a thought • ful gift from Mitchener’s.

Apologists for the offend ing students make claims to relieve them from ac countability. They assert that the students were merely exercising their First Amendment freedom of speech and their First Amendment freedom of as sembly and petition. This assertion is preposterous. The offending students were committing willful acts constituting crimes un der the laws of the states in which the institutions are located. Apologists contend also that even if such acts were crimes the students are free from moral blame and ought not to be held accountable for them by either the institu tions of learning or the law. They argue that the students perpetrated their lawless acts to compel recalcitrant administrations to recognize their griev ances and to submit to their demands. This ignores the essen tial fact that criminal con duct has no place on the campus of any university or college anywhere in our THE CHOWAN HERALD. EDENTON. NORTH CAROLINA, THURSDAY, JUNE 12, IMS. land. Our country cannot tol erate the violent disruption of the educational 'process on the campuses of our universities and colleges. Besides, it need not do so. Administrators of these in stitutions and state offi cials charged with the ad ministration of criminal justice have ample author ity to put an end to viol ence on the campuses. In my judgment, they must do these basic things: First, they must recognize the rights of students to petition for a redress of grievances and keep lines of communication open to students who make re-> quests peaceably and cour teously. Second, at the saThe time, they must make it abundantly clear that their institutions are not going to be havens of re pose for the indolent or places of correction for the i incorrigible. Nor should they appease students who commit crimes or seek to obtain for them immunity from prosecution and pun ishment. They must safe guard the right of students desirous of pursuing an education in an atmosphere of peace by expelling those who seek to disrupt the educational process by vio lent methods. Third, state officers charged with re sponsibility for administer -1 ing criminal justice must ! prosecute and adequately ■ punish students who com mit violent crimes on cam puses. The first duty of a free society is to enforce law and maintain order. Dis order denies to- the people the right to exercise and enjoy freedoms. Our nation has much at stake in the continuance of our educational processes for our universities and colleges must supply intel lectual and spiritual en lightenment to keep our society free.

When Hosea was along with tie band We weren t afraid because he was a man AnT L m f S he ,^°u ld sin ® alon « way And that would help brighten the day. It was one morning in early May t started to school that spring day, Ma , r J ha had been waiting for me, thought I would come before they would leave. We met every morning at Maggie’s home And waiteci for each other until they would come. So that morning as you will see They went to school and left me. I thought a moment, then I said, T should have got up out of the bed.” And that history test I did dread Because of my teacher I was scared. And all through the woods I had to go. I can remember the path was all covered with straw You know I ran just as fast as I could Trying to make .my way out of the woods. Then I looked up and saw a cloud, 1 didn’t want to get wet. I hadn’t heard a sound lhen I saw the rain come meeting me Now my clothes got wet as they could be. I came out of the woods at the Phthisic farm Out came Ruby and took me by the arm. Now you’ve been caught out in the rain. Your clothes are wet, you’ll have to change. Then into the house we did go, She gave me a dress that was plaid, you know And the ruffles were as white as snow, I tell you it was flashy and made a big show My books were wet as they could be. They dyed my arms red and green. She took them beside of the stove, Dried them off as they were before. She helped me dress and I hurried on, I didn’t have time to go back home; Ruby made it pleasant with a smile And gave me a welcome that was worth while. Then I started on my way to school Now the breeze was just a little cool: When I got to the school house door I was prouder than I was before. The dress was bright, shiny and new. My girl friends shunned me all but a few. They didn’t know, all that happened to me When I walked in with a dress below my knees. Ruby was a friend as you can see Just like people ought to be. This world would be a better place If we would meet our problems face to face.
