Senate Meeting Is
A Non-Happening
Reality of Israel Named Key
in Ending Middle East Crisis
By Lois Wickstrom
Dr. Fred Krinsky, chairman of
USC’s Political Science Depart¬
ment, told the final session of the
symposium on "Arab-lsraeli Cri¬
sis: What Next?” that “conditions
for peace in the Middle East are
almost totally lacking and not on
the horizon.” Both the Israelis
and the Arabs have a tremendous
amount of justice on their sides.
He noted that a case can and
should be made for Israel. Is¬
rael’s claim is the right of exist¬
ence. What Israel wants is a
peace settlement by direct nego¬
tiation not imposed by the UN or
other external organization.
As Abba Eban quipped to the
UN General Assembly, “This is
the only war in history in which
the victors sued for peace and
the vanquished asked for uncon¬
ditional surrender.”
EVERY day without peace is a
day of danger and waste. The
Middle East cannot afford to
spend money and manpower for
armies. Both the Israelis and
Arabs need water not war, trac¬
tors not tanks, and bread not

bombs. This rift between them is
totally unnecessary for either’s
goals. The contingent for peace
is Arab recognition of Israel’s ex¬
istence.
The Jews have their best chance
for a permanent civilization
among the Arabs because the
Arabs have never had pogroms
or concentration camps as so
many other peoples have. Even
the British put Jews in concen¬
tration camps when they were
traveling to help establish Israel.
The Arabs and Jews worked to¬
gether to fight off the British.
When Israel was finally estab¬
lished in 1947 with the aid of
weapons purchased from Czech¬
oslovakia, the UN made a decis-

Not much worth reporting oc¬
curred at last week’s Senate meet¬
ing. But a lot of interesting
things did not happen.
Joan Nick did not give a report
on the progress that was being
made in installing Tampax vend¬
ing machines in the women’s
restrooms.
A not very intelligent but highly
amusing (in a morbid way) ser¬
ies of exchanges did transpire on
traffic problems and elevator
traffic problems. A lengthy dis¬
cussion about parking reform
yielded the conclusion that if one
thought about it, the present sys¬
tem had pracieal reasons for be¬
ing. A very similar process took
place in regard to the elevator
problem.
ANDY LITTLEJOHN made the
most illuminating comment of the
day, one that shed light on the na¬
ture of the Senate quorum of that
day: if people would just read the
elevator sign and press the button
they wouldn’t save a problem.
One complaint that has been
discussed but that no one had the
nerve to make in a Senate meet¬
ing is that the restrooms are un¬
sanitary insofar as they lack toilet
seat covers and this potentially
represents a health hazard.
A beginning was made on some¬
thing; a committee was formed
to study the possibility of a fund
raising project for the World Un¬
iversity Service. However-, it is
too early to say whether this rep-

enced to ski at lower rates. Next

AWS To Hold Annual
Conference,
Members of AWS have been
actively planning two important
coming events — their traditional
yearly AWS conference and the
AWS fashion show.
The forty-fifth conference of
AWS will be held tomorrow from
9:30 to 3:30 at Monte Corona,
Twin Peaks, Calif.
Eight women representing
PCC’s club will attend. They in¬
clude Kathy Formanack, Bilenda
Harris, Lyda Hollida, Susie Lantz,
Margaret Makihara, Mindy Pru¬
itt, Linda Sneed, and Cyndi So-
pocko.
There will be many activities,
including registration, refresh¬
ments, a general assembly, a
luncheon, and workshops. The
workships range from service
projects to recognition programs.
The AWS Fashion Show will be
held in the Campus Center
Lounge November 9 from 12 to
1 p.m.
“Fashion Safari,” the theme,
will be carried out by jungle dec¬
orations and stuffed animals, be¬
ing loaned to the club by Macabob
Toys. A door prize will be given
away at the event.
Modeling clothes from Revas of
Pasadena will be Linda Troense-
gaard, Pat Fisher, Miss HolUday
(alternate), Linda Hughes, Pam
Show
Johnston Katie Kaiser (alternate)
Janie Kuhnmuench, Susie Schoef-
fel, Pam Simon, Pam Smack,
June Takahashi, and Beverly
Thompson.
Among those responsible for or-
gazining the show Miss Forman¬
ack, chairman; Marcy Gerke,
decorations; Cindy Doty, door
prize; and Sandy Scott, AWS
president.
resents something that did or did
or did not happen.
ALTHOUGH much did not hap¬
pen, nevertheless the meeting
gave signs of promise for the se¬
mester ahead. Axel Richter, who
runs the Senate in a relatively in¬
formal manner, seems to be
bringing the role of the ombuds¬
men into student government.
The ombudsman, an office or¬
iginated in Scandinavia, is an of¬
ficial who acts as an intermediary
between disaffected and com¬
plaining citizens and officials of
the establishment who are not
able to have direct contact with
the people. Its purpose is to hu¬
manize the administration of bu¬
reaucracy and to minimize red
tape.
The Senate would seem to be
ideal for such a role, since it pro¬
vides a structural means for stu¬
dents to communicate with the
administration, and represents all
of PCC’s students. However, as
with any idea of government
much will depend on the maturity
of those who will enact it.
AWS, AMS

All swingers and lovers of rock

Dana Club Presents
First Mineral Show
Set aside November 4 or 5 for one of the biggest events of the year,
Dana Club’s First Annual Mineral Show in the student dining room.
The two-day exhibition will include uncut gem stones with individual
values that exceed $15,000. The total value of all minerals at the show
will probably be higer than $1,000,000.
The invitation to attend, admission free, is extended jointly by the
Dana Club of PCC and the Mineralogical Society of Southern Califor¬
nia.
Besides the hundreds of minerals exhibited, there will also be door
prizes, grab bags, a food bar, and several educational exhibits.
Money received from the dealers who rent the exhibition booths will
be split between the Van Amringe Memorial Scholarship fund and the
Mineralogical Society of Southern California, an organization founded
by the late Professor Van Amringe.
Van Amringe started PCC’s geology section on the road to success,
and the scholarship fund that bears his name, is given exclusively to
geology majors.
On November 4, the minerals will be on display from 10 a.m. to
10 p.m., and on November 5 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. ’
