THE DAILY TAR HEEL Pa?e 3 Aristotelian Methods acement Office i Saturday, March 18, 1967 PI Di cover Hm To the Editor: Upon reading Mr. Robert Pace's rejoinder to my recent article on Hubert Humphrey, and the credibility gap, I pon dered long and deeply in an effort to fathom the mode of reasoning employed by him in framing his arguments. Applying the Artistotelian and Millian standards of lo gic to his criticisms. I kept obtaining the same illicit con clusions. Suddenly, I realized hot damn that Mr. Pace, like so many of our Admin istration and State Depart ment officials, was utilizing the absurd logic of Joseph Hell-, er's Catch - 22, anticipated much earlier by the Cheshire Cat in Lewis Carroll's Alike In Wonderland. The readers of the DTH will recall Mr. Pace's critique of my article involved two maj or points: the first one relat ed to the question of the Viet cong and North Vietnamese build-up during the "Tet" truce, while the second turn ed on LBJ's popular mandate in 1964. Let us see how writer Pace skillfully applied Hell er's conception of logic to them. First, respecting the t r u c e build - up, my argument went thusly: During the truce per iod, North Vietnam infiltrated men and materiale into South Vietnam. At the same time, the United States was taking respite to transfer soldiers and to replenish supplies at its for tifications. From these premis es, I derived the conclusion that no moral indictment could be leveled at Hanoi, since both belligerents were equally blameworthy. My critic, on the other hand, speciously argued that I should have deduced that, because no "American and - or South Viet namese soldiers were infiltrat ed into North Vietnam during the truce," Hanoi should be rightly chastised. That's "Catch-22" logic. Secondly, he averred that "the responsible judgment of the American poDulace was expressed in 1964" and he is hardly disconcerted with . the . present iJQurse of events. :rpIn the past, thi. has beenac-., uxiracung tne , central .jpre mises from this argument, we may construct the following syllogism: Johnson and Hum phrey campaigned on a plat form which stated, "we will L ittle Theater To Present "J. B." The Pulitzer Prize play, "J. B.' by Archibald Mac Leish, is next on the Raleigh Little Theatre current series. Performances are scheduled for March 30 through April 2, and April 5 through April 9. Curtain time is 8 p.m. "J. B." is considered by most theatre critics to be one of the highlights of contempor ary theatre. Written in verse, the play uses as its founda tion the Book of Job. MacLeish brings the discuss ions from the Bible into mod ern times when he poses the question as to why the right eous must suffer. A subject of much discussion by clergy men and all who see it, the play remains as controversial today as when it opened on Broadway in 1959. The Raleigh Little Theatre production promises theatrical excitement. Many veteran ac tors are in the unusually large cast of 21. Terry Chronaki of Durham plays the title role. His Valkyrie Sing Entry deadline for Valkyrie Sing has been ex tended to Thursday, March 23, to give more groups the opportunity to participate. Entry and $10 en try fee should be turned in to Mary Susan Kirk at the Kappa Delta House. IN PERSON SONNY and CHER Maurice Williams and the Zodiacs The Embers The Carolines N. C.

Tickets $2.50 - $3.00 -$3.50 on Sale at The Record Bar (Durham and Chapel Hill) Nowell's Village Squire not bomb the North:" "We will not send our boys to South Vietnam;" and "it is then war to win or lose." LBJ and HHH were elected by an over whelming majority of the American electorate and re ceived a mandate to put into effect their program. There fore, concludes Mr. Pace, it follows that LBJ and comnany should have bombed North ViPtnam, sent in a force of 500.000 American soldiers, and ultimately Americanized th war by placing the main burden of searching and de stroying on our fighting men.. Brother, that's the logic of "catch-22," again! - If my hypothesis is valid, then it helps to explain why the logic in my thinking is be yond his understanding and why he finds himself increas ing incapable of comprehend ing "the thinking of many so called liberals on the question of Viet Nam." Mr. Pace, of course, made no assault on the main thesis underlying the case I made against HHH's performance, so, perhaps, it may be worth while to state it explicitly. Then, if he is still critical, maybe a more lucid, more closely - reasoned refutation can be made by him. Essentially, my guiding the sis was this: by seeking to manipulate the American peo ple with false analogies, illi cit logic, and downright lies, combined with subtle attacks on the right to dissent, the present Administration is spawning both indifference to, or suspicion of, our democra tic values and propagating cy nicism toward politics, politi cans and political participa tion in the United States. By so doing, our elected leaders are undermining our liberal heritage and selling us a false bill of goods. Respectfully, Ernest J. Yanarella To the Editor Students have generally al lowed political parties to shape their choices for student gov ernment leadership" positions.-, ceptapie because tne party, tic- kets usually represented cohe rent points of view and con tained men of equal caliber. This year, however, we feel that it would be a disservice wife, Sarah, is played by Cor rine Newman, director of Ra leigh's Children's Theatre. Cast in the roles of Mr. Zuss and Nickles are veterans Har ry Dorsett and Harry Calla han. The latter is the theatre's scenic designer. New York critics were e c static in their praise of ttie play's first production. Broolcs Atkinson, in the NEW YORK TIMES, said, "In every , re spect, 'J. B.' is theatre on its highest level. The performance is magnificent". Mail reservations are being accepted now by writing the Little Theatre box office. Phone reservations begin March 27. The theatre is lo cated on Pogue Street near N. C. State University. A special student night for college and high school stu dents and their teachers will be held on March 30 at reduc ed rates. A brief seminar will be held following that produc tion for those wishing to stay. n mBionrev iL V to the student body if voting were to take place strictly along partisan lines, because each party has been able to place one outstanding and ex perienced leader on its slate. We are convinced that the good of the student community re quires that this pair of lead ers be allowed to serve even though they carry different party endorsements. As students more concerned about the future of student gov ernment than party solidarity, we announce the' beginning of an informal organization to urge students to split their tic kets for student welfare to elect Bill Purdy (UP) Presi dent of the Student Body and Jed Dietz (SP) Vice - presi dent of the Student Body. We hope the members of the student body, aftfer careful consideration, of the candi dates, will agree with us that next year's student , govern ment leadership will be bet ter chosen by independent thinking than by political par tisanship. Eric Van Loon, Chairman To the Editor I was very glad to see that you support the administra tion's policies in Viet Nam. It is high time thta you took a concrete stand. Support from a highly rated publica tion like the Daily Tar Heel can help public sentiment greatly. I am proud to say that UNC is not another Berkeley like many people say. The stand of the Daily Tar Heel can change this opinion greatly. B. M.

Berne will be the subject of a two-part interview on N.E.T.'s weekly science series "Spectrum". Dr. Eric Berne To Speak On WUNC-TV "Spectrum By KATHRYN HARRIS Special to the DTH Fron his clinic in Carmel, California, Dr. Eric Berne, so cial psychiatrist and author of the provocative and widely debated best - seller, GAMES PEOPLE PLAY, will discuss his psychoanalytic theory "transactional analysis." This "Spectrum" production, nam ed after the book, will be pre sented Tuesday evening at 8 p.m. on University Television OH, NOT TOO EACAbA -WE DON'T ARGUE MUCH AS WE USE&TO 3-IS . r j' stations WUNB-TV Channel 2 and WUNC-TV Channel 4. According to Dr. Berne, sti mulus - hunger, an infantile need for physical contact, is transformed into recognition hunger in grown - ups. He employs the term "stroking" to denote any act whereby one person recognizes the pres ence of another. Also, he be lieves that the basic unit of social intercourse is a trans action which takes place when ' . .... ; - i one person exchanges strokes with another. For example, an exchange of greetings is a simple form of transaction. Every individual needs to re ceive a certain number of strokes each day. According ly, Dr. Berne considers a stroke to be the basic unit of social action arising out of man's need for recognition. At the core of "transaction al analysis" is the concept of ego - states. Dr. Berne sub stitutes the states of Child, Adult, and Parent for the Freudian model of Id, Ego, and Superego. In the main Child is composed of creativ ity, spontaneity, and pleasure; Adult acts as mediator be tween Parent and Child? co ordinating their activities; Parent enables the individual to behave as a real parent of children. Dr. Berne assumes that every individual possess es all three states. ; In "transactional analysis" a patient" learns how his be- havior effects the actions of those around him. By under going this unique form of ther apy, the patient feels pres sured to decide what he wants from the therapeutic session. Berkeley Cops Not Violent During a total of 130 years of service, five Berkeley po licemen who recently retired say they fired their pistols on ly five times on duty. None of the bullets hit anyone. Lt. Walter H. Garrett, 52, fired his gun twice in his 30 years on the force. Both were warning shots. Patrolman J. E. Houston, 53, a veteran of 25 years, says he fired at a 16-year-old youth who was shooting into a crowd. Inspector Charles W. O'Meara, 56, an expert marksman, shot at burglar and car theft sus pects but missed both times. "It's a policeman's job to make sure any person who is a threat to other citizens is kept under control, once cap tured," says O'Meara. There fore he has pulled his service pistol many times. NIGERIAN BOY SCOUTS LAGOS, Nigeria (UPI) A campaign is under way here for nublic donations to help finance the eytooftl1 world Scout Jamboree in Ida- ho this August.

Both are partial qualifica tions for employment in sum mer camps listed in the Place ment Service's file of summer jobs. With either, or nearly any thing in between, you may qualify for a position in one of nearly 100 camps from New England to the Rockies. Placement officials say that although most channels for summer jobs are closed, a good number in summer camp work remain. Most require applicants to be 19 years old with one year of college as a minimum. The requirement for previous ex perience is usually listed only as being "desirable," not ne cessarily required for all posi tions. What the camps are seek ing most are particular inter ests and abilities. In addition to general coun selor skills in dealing with children of various ages, spe cialies sought range from ar chery to xylophone playing. A partial list includes golf, ten nis, riflery, photography, mu sic, sculpture, news writing ceramics, Red Cross abilities, radio technician, drama, School Journalism Orchestra Reaction Touches of romantic Italy, the togetherness of a s m a 1 1 German town, and a hint of old Ireland create the setting for the 22nd annual tour of the North Carolina Symphony through the music it presents at children's concerts, such as the one here in Hickory last night. Student participation was the highlight of the performance as young voices filled the school with the singing of "Sweet Nightingale" and 'Turkey in the Straw." Perhaps the most moving piece in the Symphony's reper toire is that of Amahl and the Night Visitors. Amahl, a poor cripple boy, becomes well af-'ter- giving his: most valuable possession a crude crutch to the Christ Child. Although the North Carolina Symphony travels 7,200 miles one can stop at any perform ance and notice the superb quality contained in the music, particularly selected for either matinee or evening concerts. "The glitter in the eyes of the children and the tap of the foot from a first grade boy were signs of enjoyment. They looked over each other's shoul ders trying to see which foot is moving on the harpist, what the drummer is playing now and how the violinist is fixing that broken string without a moment's hesitation." The instruments are also amusement for anyone watch ing. Rhythm and smoothness in the violins, the tingling-soft sound of the harp, the heart throbbing drum; these are the materials which bring enter tainment resulting from the symphony's intensive .weekly rehearsals. The Children responded to the musicians and their mu sic. The 'big guitar' entranc es the boys. The girls think the harp is the nicest of all. DAILY CROSSWORD ACROSS 1. Church court 5.

Work in these camps is with handicapped, mental ly retarded, or underprivileg ed children. As a general counselor, unit leader, or group leader a stu dent would earn from $200 $400 as a starting salary at most camps. Higher pay is offered for experience and spe cial skills. For example a wa ter safety instructor might re ceive as much as $750 for a ten week season. Most camps provide room and board as " well as salary.
