Wednesday, April 15, 1970 THE DAILY TAR HEEL Pc2 Fi z CaUs Davis "Top Patriot'' ji rrn e!iif Tbrld News ., Mesieir 771 77 . Vie it By Rod Waldorf Managing Editor The retired U.S. Army general who spoke at the anti-war festival here last weekend said Monday he considered Rennie Davis one of the top patriots in the country today. Brig. Gen. Hugh Hester, in an interview in his Durham hotel before speaking at Duke Universityty, said a real patriot doesn't have to wave the flag to be loyal to his country. "Patriotism is in the heart of man," Hester said. Still speaking of Davis, one of the Chicago Eight, Hester said it was Judge Julius Hoffman and not the defendents at the Chicago conspiracy trials that did injury to justice in the United States. Hester, 75, is a 34-year veteran of the Army, including meritous duty in both world wars. He has been honored by both the U.S. and France. The short, balding general lives in St. Petersburg, Fla., and travels around the country speaking on American foreign policy. Hester said the power of the President of the United States is the greatest power in the world, and former President Lyndon B. Johnson "could have stopped it (the war) and only gotten a whimper from trie military-industrial Original etchings, serigraphs, ink-suspension watercolors and lithographs by 14 contempor ary artists.

Anania, commanding officer of the UNC ROTC unit. ROTC will be terminated at Dartmouth, Harvard, Brown, Columbia and Tufts universities, Capt. Anania said, and negotiations are still being , conducted at Yale and Princeton universities. Anania said the units will be discontinued because of a continual decreasing enrollment at the schools. Even though all ROTC units are staffed for an enrollment of 400 midshipment, he explained, the schools were graduating few officers. The affect here and at other universities with an NROTC unit will be a slight increase in enrollment, Capt. Anania said. He added that enrollment in NOW ON DISPLAY! N May Effect Orienta.

"By letting stooges do the killing," Hester said, Nixon hopes to take pressure off the American people. He claimed the President is counting on the fact that the American public is dulled Closing UNC southern schools have continued to be high. Even with the closing of the units in the northern universities, NROTC is not on the decline, according to Capt. Anania. He said that 225 schools have inquired about the possibility of getting a unit for their campuses and 135 schools have officially applied for a NROTC unit. "The Navy does not plan to place any more units," Anania said, "since it is getting a sufficient number of officers for the size of the future Navy." He said that under law, "NROTC is limited to 10.225 midshipmen in all schools, with a maximum of 5,500 of the total under scholarship. With a total of 54 units in the country, the Navy hopes to reduce the number to 40 to 45. N. C AND enough to accept any immorality. "if we continue our present course " Hester said, "there exists a very real threat of World War III and an end to man." He added that even if the President averts that, he still faces the same end Johnson met. Hester said military conscription is totally unnecessary. "There is no lack of patriotism among the youth of this country," he said, "and there never has been. "Unnecessary conscription is a vile form of involuntary servitude," he charged. 'There should be only volunteers in military service." Hester said he was trying to conserve "that which is decent and inherent in our Declaration of Independence and our Constitution. "I am confident I am supporting the best interest of my country," Hester said. Collect Empty beer cans worth $50?

The cans, Madry said, will be dumped in Polk Place, in front of South building. The "Trash-In" has the support of the University which has agreed to have the cans removed by the physical plant the following day. "In the general problem of garbage, the "Trash-In" is pointing out one small part non-returnable cans," Madry said. "It is hard to imagine all of the cans used every day. We are running out of space to put them. "Governmental action always seems to come too late. But this problem is like a bullet once it is fired, it is too late," the freshman sociology major said. What are some solutions? "The cans could be recycled," Madry said. "A good percentage could be remade or used again instead of being sent on a one-way trip out of the factory. "We hope the "Trash-In" will dramatize the problem and get people thinking about other solutions." Madry said the committee Wed.
