Silber: Intelligence Breeds Unemployment

During the last four months a methodical 
purge of the most capable officers within 
the University administration has been con­
ducted before our eyes.

At both the System and institutional level, 
the instrument for the administrative clean­
out has clearly been the lethal hand of 
Board of Regents Chairman Frank C. Er­
win Jr.

Direct Command 
That same deadly fist struck its most 
staggering blow last Friday night in the 
summary firing of Dr. John R. Silber as 
Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. 
Although he hoped it would not appear 
to be a direct command from the chairman, 
there is no doubt in our minds that Erwin 
manipulated University President Ad In­
terim Bryce Jordan and Chancellor-elect 
Charles LeMaistre into firing Silber.

Proof of Erwin’s meddling came a scant 
two hours before the announcement of the 
firing when Erwin told Silber, in the pres­
ence of a witness: “John, you’re the most 
intelligent, articulate and hard-working man

this University. Because of 

at 
these 
qualities, you make some people in the 
higher echelons nervous.” He went on to 
explain that because of this quality, Silber 
would be asked to resign or be removed.

Such reasoning shows the absurd lengths 
to which Mr. Erwin will resort in carrying 
out his fanatical schemes to increase his 
ever-tightening hold on the University op­
erations.

John Silber and Frank Erwin are often 
classified 
the 
opposite 
theoretical political equilibrium — Silber 
a liberal, Erwin a conservative.

sides of 

on 

Bomb-Throwing Radical

But w'hen it comes to following procedural 
due process or even common diplomatic 
courtesy, Silber is an arch-conservative and 
Erwin a bomb-throwing radical.

Before and throughout his 15-year tenure 
at the University, Silber has always pro­
fessed a belief that men should work within 
the system, through the proper channels, 
under the proper authority. That’s wily he’s

earned so many enemies from both tho 
far right and far left

Erwin, however, will stop at nothing to 
carry out his whims and wishes, playing 
administrator a g a i n s t 
administrator, 
students against faculty, University against 
public.

Two perfect examples of the chairman’s 
little games come to light after a year 
of supposer! “bitter in-fighting” between Sil­
ber and former President Norman Hack- 
erman over the impending reorganization 
of the College of Arts and Sciences. All 
winter Erwin fed fuel to the flames with 
off-the-record observations to confidantes 
like: “This school’s not big enough for John 
and Norm.” Now even Erwin admits that 
the “feud” w-as a farce. Silber w’as always 
one of Hackerman’s staunchest supporters.

Now he’s claiming that the town’s not 
big enough 
the Erwin- 
for Silber or 
LeMaistre-Jordan alliance, of which Erwin 
Is the senior partner. So Silber took the 
punishment for his role in the game.

Now, with one of the last few independent 
voices removed from the scene, Erwin will 
hold an even stiffer reign of fear over 
the administrators at 
this University. 
(Evidence of this was the unanimous vote 
of confidence given Jordan late Monday 
by the Dean’s Council, at which Silber, 
of course, and Dean Page Keeton of the 
law school were absent. “If they can do 
this to Silber, think what they can do to 
us.” the deans must have reasoned).

There is one issue, howe 
Erwin cannot be disputed - 
ber is the most intelligent,

Ord over the last two and one-half years 
as dean speaks for itself.

And that’s the reason he was fired? Be­
cause he makes his superiors feel inferior? 
Because he is basically an honest man?

Diversionary Tactic**
As for the roles which LeMaistre and 
Jordan played in this segment of the purge, 
we can see them only as diversionary tac­
tics of the real mastermind, carried out 
integrity-com­
by 
two examples of 
the 
in 
found 
promising administrators 
“higher echelons” today.

the 

But there is one possible flaw in Erwin’s 
blueprints to build the University into an­
other Connally Tech. And it would surface 
if Jordan’s plan to divide the College of 
Arts and Sciences fails at the Friday Board 
of Regents meeting in Corpus Christi.

Since Jordan, the mislabeled “author” of 
the Jordan-LeMaistre-Erwin reorganization
- stresses unity and repersonalization, 
-* now come up with some

--------------------

other excuse for dividing* the college, since 
the deposed dean stood for these all along 
in arguing against division.

With Silber removed from the deanship, 
they must find some other excuse than 
that the unabashed opponent of division 
holds the college’s chief position of power.

The Texan, 

therefore, appeals to th# 
better judgment of 
the eight remaining 
members of the Board of Regents to re­
pudiate the efforts of a political hack to 
destroy a great university as a center for 
liberal arts education.

Quick Demise

If the eight gentlemen will prove their 
Independence and integrity, then chances 
are that Erwin’s reign of terror over tbs 
University System will meet a quick de­
mise.

Needless to say it will take courage to 
do so — the kind of courage John Silber 
has demonstrated in the last four days.

Jordan Withdraws Recommendation

Students Association Fee Cut Not Sought

By CUFF AVERY
Texan Staff Writer

University President Ad Interim Bryce 
Jordan has withdrawn his recommendation 
to split the Students’ Association from the 
blanket tax activities fee.

Jordan said he would propose at a re­
gents’ meeting in Corpus Christi July 31 
that blanket tax allotment remain the 
same: a total of $21.50 with $12 for the 
Athletic Council, $4.10 for Texas Student 
Publications, 
for Cultural En­
tertainment Committee and $1.90 for the 
Students’ Association.

$3.50 

Jordan made his first recommendation 
to the Board of Regents at its July IO 
meeting. Stressing the freedom of the

student to choose what he would pay for, 
he planned to 
isolate the student gov­
ernment from the blanket tax for the 1970-71 
long session, and sever the Cultural and 
Entertainment Committee in 1972.

The move came under heavy criticism 
from student leaders as an attempt to kill 
student government and student channels 
into the administration. Regents pointed to 
the Draft Counseling Center, funded by the 
Students’ Association, and other Students’ 
Association-funded programs as misuse of 
blanket tax monies.

Jordan said he based his decision to with­
draw this recommendation upon a report 
from Vice-President tor Student Affairs Ad

Interim Stephen McClellan and upon a 
meeting with the board of directors of 
Texas Student Publications Inc., which also 
shares in blanket tax funds.

“Based on all this information,” Jordan 
said in a prepared statement, “I have with­
drawn the July IO proposal and have recs 
o mm ended that the blanket tax package 
approved for the 1970-71 academic year, 
remain in effect.”

McClellan said that his report, which 
dealt with the fiscal impact and educational 
impact of the July IO recommendation, had 
been based upon 
interview's with rep­
resentatives of the units sharing in the 
blanket tax.

First Professor Plans to Quit in Protest

Dr. Robert K. Selander, professor of 
zoology, 
announced Monday he had 
arranged to leave the University as a result 
of Dean John R. Silber’s dismissal.

Selander said Silber Is the “greatest per­
son who ever came to this campus, and 
8Uber has been slaughtered. I am a lab 
scientist who has never been out of my 
lab, but I know quality in a man when 
I see i t ”

Selander will go to Stony Brook, N.Y,

after the fall semester.

“He has the kind of class you don’t see 
often. If you don’t understand Silber, then 
you are not living.”

Not having been around Silber more than 
four minutes, Selander said, “I never talked 
to anyone like I’ve talked to Silber In those 
tour minutes.”

“Scientists think that Silber does not un­
derstand them,” Selander continued, “but

derstands them, but he does. He ap­
preciates things all too well.

“no comment” not wishing

M m m h n Editor

Moving against the majority opinion in 
the College of Arts and Sciences, President 
Ad Interim Bryce Jordan announced Mon­
day a reorganizationa! plan that will divide 
the University’s largest college into three 
separate colleges under a provost directly 
responsible to toe president.

The provost, a line officer of vine-presi­
dential level, will head three colleges —> 
humanities, natural sciences and social and 
befaavarial sciences — each with its own 
Une-officer dean.

LeMaistre Erective

A fourth unit — Division of General and 
Comparative Studies — will also report to 
the provost. Plan II and Comparative 
Studies fall in this category.

The recommendation, already approved 
by the chancellor’s office, follow’s the A&S 
directive issued by then Deputy Chancellor 
Charles LeMaistre July I. Approval of the 
plan is expected by the Board of Regents 
at their Friday meeting in Corpus Christi.

Both Jordan and LeMaistre are reported 
to have said they will resign if the regents 
do not accept their reorgaization proposal

A Texan 

Interpretive

Jordan’s plan is contrary to both the 
Majority and Minority Reports of 
the 
Special Commission on the Organization of 
the College of Arts and Sciences, both of 
which called for a single unified college. 
Jordan’s proposal calls for three colleges.

A statement issued by the chancellor’s 
office made it clear that Jordan ‘had no 
discretion about dividing A&S and no dis­
cretion as to die administrative character 
of the deanship heading each of the new 
colleges.” Jordan said in a press conference 
Monday that he followed a directive set 
down by LeMaistre.

The President Ad Interim emphasized 
that three main concerns of LeMaistre — 
unity, advocacy, and repersonalization — 
would be satisfied by his proposal. Jordan 
said that the insertion of the provost as 
a line officer heading the fragmented A&S 
college would represent less bureaucratic 
entanglement than the majority report rec­
ommendation.

Jordan's use of toe three terms — unity, 
advocacy and repersonalization — seems 
ironic, especially in terms of the abrupt 
firing of Dr. John R. Silber, former A&S 
dean. Silber strongly favored all three for 
A&S in his endorsement of the majority 
report

Unity Question 
Jordan said the provost who would he 
appointed by the president and confirmed 
by the chancellor after selection of three 
nominees by an ad hoc faculty committee, 
would provide unity to the college.

“Giving him a vice-presidential level title 
is for the purpose of safeguarding and 
guaranteeing the continued unity for those 
disciplines 
the College of Arts and 
Sciences,” Jordan said. “The provost is 
a line officer with full academic and fiscal 
responsibility. He will function as a mem­
ber of the presidential staff.”

in 

Silber, in a July 17 letter to Jordan, 
wrote, “All faculty committees have rec­
ommended, however, that the preservation 
of a single united College of Arts and 
Sciences under a single dean is an essential 
condition for realizing this goal (unity).” 

Jordan’s plan apparently hopes to re­
create unity through tile provost after 
dividing the original single A&S college. 
This proposal was studied by the Special 
Commission and rejected overwhelmingly.

Tito provost, under Jordan’s (dan, would 
head tinea cpflepea. each undoc its own

dean. Such organization could breed in­
fighting and competition between toe deans, 
a condition hardly conducive to unity.

“These new colleges, headed by deans 
of faculties with narrow professional in­
terests,” Silber wrote, "W ild have every 
natural tendency to pursue professional in­
toe manner of professional 
terests 
schools, without regard to goals of liberal 
or general education.”

in 

In addition to unity within the college, 
Jordan said advocacy was of prime concern 
to LeMaistre. “The Arts and Sciences will 
for the first time have a line advocate 
in the office of the president," Jordan said, 
“Giving him a vice-presidential title is for 
the purpose of safeguarding toe continued 
unity of A&S."

Silber, however, said in his letter that 
effective Institutional advocacy tarns much 
more on the quality, temperaments and 
abilities of toe individuals involved than 
on structural organization. “An able dean 
of arts and sciences will be a far mans 
effective advocate of the interests of A&S 
than an equally able or even more able 
the new proposal, 
provost, who, under 
would be Inevitably weakened by the in­
ternal wars and competing interests of toe 
deans reporting to him.”

Critics claim that the Jordan-LeMafastr* 
plan for reorganization of A&S does not 
meet toe guidelines set forth by the Chan­
cellor-elect in his own directive to Jordan 
July I. The most apparent weakness of 
the Jordan plan is in unity — three colleges 
under separate deans can In no logical 
way be construed as unified as a single 
college.

Intervention Needed?

The Plan II program tor the BA degree 
offers an excellent example. Under Jordan’s 
plan, the director of Plan II would have 
no budget and would staff his courses by 
requesting through his dean co-operation 
of the deans of several other colleges re­
porting to the provost. The provost would, 
in turn, request the co-operation af the 
other deans 
their departmental 
chairman.
Only 

intervention of a 
provost could insure that all deans and 
department chairmen would co-operate with 
Plan II. Plan II would become a program 
of only one college, while its survival could 
depend upon the co-operation, (rf faculties 
in four or five other independently budgeted 
colleges.

Egyptian and Israeli jets tan­

and 
two enemy

MIG17s were shot down and a

At the same time an Arab split

acceptance by Jordan and Egypt 
of a plan for Middle East peace 
submitted by the United States.

The air fight over the canal 
resulted from the first Egyptian

waterway in a month. An Egyp­
tian communique said the at­
tackers inflicted heavy damage 
in strikes at Tina and Elcap, both 
in the northern sector of the 
Israeli-occupied Sinai Desert.

According to the Israelis, the 
two MIGS were downed and the

j Many Draftees 
J Not 'Draftable

| WASHINGTON (AP) — Despite attempts to improve Its 
| screening the Pentagon continues to induct thousands of men 
| with disqualifying physical defects, including a man with a 
| missing kidney and another deformed by polio, a government 

report said Monday.

Sen. Richard S. Schweiker, R-Pa., released the report by 
the Government Accounting Office and called for redoubled 
efforts to keep men with such defects from being enrolled in 
the armed services.

The report found that in fiscal 1968 and 1969 nearly 40,000 
servicemen were released within a year of their inductions 
because of physical defects that had gone undetected during 
their examinations.

Two years ago a similar GAO report, also done at Schweiker’s 
request, found that 40,200 men were discharged under the same 
circumstances in fiscal 1966 and 1967.

"Although I am pleased that improvements in the inductee 
physical examination process have been made since I received 
the 1968 report, the fact that the over-all rate of such discharges 
has not changed indicates that these examinations must be 
drastically improved,” Schweiker said.

The GAO report said it had cost $17.9 million in the 1969 fiscal 

year to pay and outfit the men covered in the latest report.

National
Reactions:
Harsh

By LYKE THOMPSON
A s s is ta n t M anaging: E ditor

Reaction nationally and in the 
University to the firing of J Olin 
Siltier as Dean of Arts and 
Sciences was harsh Monday.

However, Regents Chairman 
Frank C. Erwin’s reaction to the 
reactions was the handiest: “To­
day I have been asked repeatedly 
to comment on the report that a 
number of persons employed by 
the University are threatening to 
resign.”

“My only comment is that if 
the 
any person employed by 
University wishes to resign, all 
he need do is quit playing games

sure his resignation will be

were the University deans.

According to the University 
News and Information Service, 
the deans voted unanimously 
Monday to support President Ad 
Interim Bryce Jordan in a “very 
difficult and highly pressured 
situation.”

However, according to those 
who went to the Dean’s Council 
meeting where 
the vote was 
taken, it was not meant to sup­
port the Silber firing.

Dean of the School of Com­
munication Wayne Danielson 
said, “I voted in support of Bryce 
Jordan. I did not vote on support 
of the firing of Silber.”

Pierre Boisseaux, who is acting 
as the law school representative, 
said, “They took the aye vote, 
but they never took a nay vote. 
I would have definitely voted 
nay.”

“I must say It was a very weak 
unanimous approval” said Alan 
Taniguchi, dean of architecture.

“It was a very irregular kind 
of motion to ask for a vote on 
after the events of the last few 
days.”

Taniguchi is among those who 
reacted against the firing. “I was 
very surprised, not so much at 
its happening, but more in the 
way it was done. When people 
discuss 
the 
University, John Silher’s name is 
often mentioned. Silber 
is a 
terrible loss to the University.”

the excellence of 

What Taniguchi said applied to 

reaction nationally and locally.

Chancellor of Hie University of 
California at Santa Cruz Dean E. 
McHenry said: “Gosh, I drought 
he was being considered for 
president. I have always held the 
highest regard for John Silber. 
He is one of the outstanding 
deans of arts and sciences in tiro 
country. He has established re­
forms that are quite the envy 
of other institutions. I have tried 
twice to get him to come here

— once as professor and Mice 
as vice-chancellor for humanities. 
Maybe the third try will be the
charm.”

William Gtebsch, chairman of 
the Department of Humanities at 
Stanford University, said, “An in­
stitutional head 
that demoted 
rather than promoted John Silber 
should go to the shrink and have 
his head examined.”

Clebsch asked if Frank Erwin, 
chairman of 
the Board of 
Regents, was behind the firing. 
“I must say that many of us 
who strongly support the Univer­
sity of Texas, don’t have support 
tor Erwin’s methods.”

Robert W. Fuller, president of 
Oberlin College, said,” Silber is 
one of the outstanding deans in 
the U.S. It is a real tragedy from 
my point of view. He is a fighter, 
but a fighter tor what is best 
in American education.” 

President-emeritus of Wesleyen 
University Victor Butterfield

said, “I think it is a shame. I 
think he is quite a remarkable 
man — very fair and really had
a philosophy of education.”

The chairman of the MTT Com­
mission on Education Kenneth 
Hoffman said, “I think very high­
ly of him. I am very surprised 
and disappointed.”

Locally reactions were some­
times harsher, sometimes more 
sympathetic.

William Alschuler, professor of 
law, questioned the action of the 
chancellor. “Failure to state any 
reason for the abrupt firing of 
this capable and highly respected 
dean gives rise to an inference 
that the motives behind the ac­
tion cannot bear the light of day. 
The result is an atmosphere of 
intimidation which I’m sure is 
intended.”

“In the hands of Dr. Jordan 
and Dr. LeMaistre, the future of 
the University darkens rapidly,”

Alschuler concluded.

Regents who were available foe 
comment Monday — Jack Josey, 
Joe Kilgore, Jenkins Garrett and 
E. T. Ximenes — all agreed that 
the decision was an administra­
tive one and that the regents 
should not get involved.

“I don’t want to look over the 
administration’s shoulder,” said 
Kilgore.

Some knew of the firing before­
said he had 
hand. Garrett 
received a telegram an hour 
before the firing. Josey said he 
“knew something was brewing.”

Regent Frank Ikard, contacted 

Friday, said he was not told.

Ximenes said he drought Silber 
was “a very capable man with 
innovative ideas. He is interested 
in doing what is best for A&S.”

Kilgore 

said he had had 
“pleasant contact” with Silber. 
Josey said he thought “he Is an 
outstanding man.”

After his abrupt dismissal from his post

Discussing his firing, Silber said Jordan 
called him into his office around 6 p.m. 
Friday and asked him to sign a prepared 
statement of his resignation giving no rea­
son for his dismissal.

Silber said he asked Jordan for time to 
consider the resignation and Jordan allowed 
15 minutes. He returned to his office, and 
then 15 minutes later, he called Jordan 
and asked for an additional amount of time. 
“But he said he had to have my decision 
then,” Silber related.

Attorney Delivered Letter 
Shortly after 7 p.m., an attorney arrived 
at Silber’s office with a letter signed by 
IroMaistre informing Silber that he had 
been fired. The letter did not list any rea­
sons for the dismissal.

One source at the University said the 
dean was summoned to Erwin’s office about 
two hours before his meeting with Jordan. 
Erwin allegedly requested Silber’s res­
ignation. When Silber asked why, Erwin 
reportedly said, “John, you’re a very in­
telligent, articulate and hardworking man. 
Because of these qualities you make some 
people in the higher echelon of the ad­
ministration nervous.”

The Dallas Morning New's quoted Erwin 
at the meeting between him and Silber, 
as saying, “John, the war is over.”

Silber said he had asked Jordan to state 
his reasons for his firing, but Jordan re­
fused to do so.

When Dr. John R. Silber was fired as

One problem, which might be termed 
strictly logistical, arose concerning Tho 
Texan’s new students edition, a 70-page 
paper printed during the summer which 
is mailed to all freshmen.

An entire section already had been 
printed for the edition. The 16-page section 
contained several stories on Silber and his 
future programs for the College of Arts

The complete section will now have to 
be reprinted at a cost of a little more than

Ross, Committee
To Fill A&S Gap

By LYNNE FLOCKE
Texan Staff Writer

Temporarily filling the leadership gap in 
arts and sciences caused by the firing of 
Dean John Silber will be a special faculty 
committee chaired by Dr. Stanley R. Ross, 
professor of history.

University President Ad Interim Bryce 
Jordan appointed Ross Friday, the day Sil­
ber was fired. Ross said that when he 
agreed to “participate as a member of 
a faculty committee to tend to the business 
of the College of Arts and Sciences,” he 
did not know “of the circumstances which 
w o u l d make 
assignment 
such 
necessary.”

an 

Ross said that at a Monday meeting with 
Silber, “Silber oriented me toward the ur­
gent pending business of arts and sciences. 
He (Silber) is as concerned as we are 
to keep the educational ball rolling.”

Ross cited personnel problems such as 
hiring teaching assistants for the fail as 
especially trying parts of a “very com­
plicated situation.”

The faculty committee met with Ross 
Monday to begin what he hopes will be 
a brief provisional term. Committee mem­
bers include:

•D r. Lorene Rogers, associate dean of 
the Graduate School and professor of home 
economics and education;

•D r. Samuel P. Ellison Jr., professor 
of geology and former geology department 
chairman;

•D r. Forest Hill, professor (rf economics

and secretary of the General Faculty at 
the University;

•Dr. Wayne Holtzman, professor of psy­
chology in the College of Arts and Sciences 
and dean of the College of Education;

•D r. Ernest J. Lovell Jr.* professor of

English.

Ross is director of the University Institute 
of Latin American Studies and was dean 
of arts and sciences at the State University 
of New York at Stony Brook before coming 
to the University in 1968.

Jordan said he will announce the ap­
pointment of an acting dean prior to the 
opening of the fall semester.

In a statement made after his ap­
pointment, Ross said, “In the interest of 
maintaining the pivotal educational role of 
the College of Arts and Sciences and its 
day-by-day operations in the present un­
happy circumstances in which we find our­
selves, I have agreed to serve with a rep­
resentative and experienced group of 
faculty members as a kind of executive 
committee for the college on an interim 
basis.

“I sincerely hope that all members of 
the faculty will appreciate the educational 
concerns which motivate us to serve In 
this capacity and will assist us in serving 
essential needs.

“I earnestly hope . * • that a solution 
will be found that will enjoy Oro confidence 
and support of the vast majority of Bm 
faculty and students.'*

DO
YOU

SCHOOL
SUPPLIES?

A recent study by a commission set up by the National Association of 
Anonymous School Supply Retailers indicates that a sizable portion o f t h e 
student milieu does not like notebooks, loaths pencils, despises pens a n d 
secretly seeks to build blue book bonfires on campuses across the country. 
Though some assert that the situation merely reflects the covert behavior of 
a small, violent minority, commission spokesmen feel student attitudes to be 
alarming.

The C o - O p feels that it must take a public stand on this matter.

W e don’t see why you should have to use these items if you have some 

bizarre, immoral and unamerican feeling about them.

But if, in spite o f your sinful thoughts, you realize you're going to flunk 
out of school if you don't tolerate them, we suggest you obtain your school 
supplies here at the C o - O p where your dividend slip will make the indignity 
a little bit easier to bear.

 Silber fired at expense of academia

The firing line

(Editor's Note: The Texan was literally 
flooded with letters Monday concerned with 
file firing of Dean John R. Silber.

While the volume is reflected with the 
sampling on this page, it is significant that 
not one letter was received supporting the 
administration's decision to fire Sober.)

To Ami editor:

intellectuality, 

To a large and important proportion of 
the faculty and students of the University 
of Texas, Dr. John R. Silber is a respected 
leader representing a value system which 
holds in high regard 
in­
the honest 
dividuality, scholarship and 
expression of ideas. His dismissal as Dean 
of the College of Arts and Sciences without 
warning or stated cause is a disheartening 
insult to all fair-minded people on this cam­
pus. Moreover, the timing and manner in 
which the dismissal was handled mark it 
as an act of cowardice. The suppressive 
atmosphere of distrust and intimidation re­
sulting from 
this atrocity was only in­
tensified by the "explanation” issued later 
to the news media by an anonymous "high 
administrative official.”

When a man of Dr. Silber’s professional 
stature, position, and integrity is subject 
to administrative assassination, faith in the 
future of this university Is destroyed. It 
will be increasingly difficult for this uni­
versity to hold or to attract faculty mem­
bers and students dedicated to the concept 
of freedom of thought and expression and 
to the goal of acad em ic excellence. Thus, 
the proximate "gains” in administrative 
conformity or whatever may be achieved 
by the dismissal of Dr. Silber are to be 
purchased ultimately at the expense of the 
quality of the University of Texas.

Contemplable

(Editor’s Note: Following is a telegram 

to Chancellor-elect LeMaistre.)

Your administration as Chancellor has 
begun with an action which has earned 
you the contempt of all intelligent members 
of the Texas faculty. I refer to the un­
explained and inexplicable firing of John 
Silber as Dean of the College of Arts and 
Sciences. I hope the reasonable members 
of the Board of Regents will repudiate your 
irresponsible action before permanent dam­
age is Inflicted on the University.

Many of us are now doubtful that the 
University of Texas Is a desirable place 
to teach. Once It could be said pf the Uni­
versity that it had the courage to appoint 
first class men like John Siltier to positions 
of power. Obviously that cannot be said

Puppets

To the editor:

I just wanted to register my opinion with 
regard to the firing of Dean Silber. I never 
agreed with the majority of the ideas of 
Dr. Silber but I must protest the way in 
which he was silenced. Mr. Erwin and his 
puppets strike again.

Outraged

To the editor:

While I have almost constantly disagreed 
with Dr. Silber’s actions since he became 
Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, 
the 
I am disgusted and outraged by 
ominous method of his removal. Surely, 
President Ad Interim Jordan has made a 
pitiful mistake in his judgment of the in­
telligence of not only members of 
the 
faculty and student body but also his fellow 
administrators.

IS IT standard procedure to call such 
a significant official as Dean Silber to the 
president’s office after usual business hours 
for the purpose of getting his resignation 
within a half-hour period? Certainly not. 
This is an action which arouses several 
embarrassing questions with regard to its 
motivation. Can it be by accident that the 
action was taken (I) after classes on a 
Friday so that many students and faculty 
members would have already left on week­
end trips, 
(2) after five so that ad­
ministrators would not be In their offices, 
(3) at six-fifteen so that there was no 
chance that the announcement would ap­
pear on the evening TV news reports, (4) 
at the beginning of the longest period be­
tween issues of die student newspaper, (5)

at the middle of the summa* term so that 
a maximum 
important, 
number 
prominent, Responsible faculty members 
would be off-campus addressing con­
ventions, advising groups, writing, etc.? 
Hardly.

of 

WHEN embarrassing actions cannot be 
done in secret, the next best course is 
to keep the action from public knowledge 
as long as possible. The dismissal of Dean 
Silber has been timed to achieve this effect. 
This method of procedure has no place 
at any academic institution. It should be 
restricted to the underside of Texas politics 
where we have come to expect it.

Brutal

To the editor:

The brutal and capricious firing of John 
Silber cannot be tolerated by the Texas 
academic community. John Silber has done 
more to further the cause of higher edu­
cation in Texas than any other man of 
the 
last decade. Faculty, students and 
alumni across the state will attest that 
John Silber is primarily responsible for 
making Texas one of the greatest state 
schools in the country. Those who say they 
serve the best interests of this university 
by removing John Silber, a man who had 
dedicated his time, his career, his life to 
these same interests, have ceased to live 
in the real world. They must be treated 
accordingly. Those who would step into 
John Silber’#; position, so outrageously va­
cated, disgrace their profession, their own 
names, and they abandon the cause of 
higher education. They must be treated 
accordingly.

John Silber is the victim of the grossest 

back-stabbing this campus has ever seen.

WE MUST SET aside our small dif­
ferences. We must forget our petty quarrels 
of the past. I call on all members of the 
academic community whose minds still 
function to stand up and stand behind John 
Silber. In the name of juctsrp up can do 
no less. In the cause of free jnen we can 
do no less. In the name of all things sacred 
to a place of reason we can do no less. 
Should we lose John Silber, we lose one 
of Texas’ finest native sons.

Abrupt

To the editor:

The abrupt dismissal of Dean S; 

. in­
fringes on the rights of all the faculty 
and staff at the University of Texas. Dean 
Silber, as well as the rest of us. is entitled 
to an explanation for such an action. Such 
gross lapses of procedure and consideration 
can only increase the distrust and distaste 
that the Board of Regents and Bryce Jor­
dan have already fomented on campus. 
Such an authoritarian display of power as 
we are now witnessing should not be 
tolerated. Are we to sit back and let these 
mice play dictator while 
regular 
citizenry of the University, faculty and 
students, is away for the summer? Are 
we going to allow them to construct such 
an unrepresentative government for our 
University society and, 
the process, 
disrupt one of the largest colleges of the 
University of Texas? Well? If the answer 
is yes —- and it may be —, then a liberal 
education and participative government at 
UT are doomed.

Disgusting

To the editor:

The request made to Dean John Silber 
that he resign while providing him with 
no reasons for such request is most dis­
courteous, disgusting, and irresponsible! In 
addition, it serves as a pow example for 
students, who are asked 
in a 
responsible manner.

Threat

To file editor:

To mediocrity, excellence In any form 
inevitably represents a threat. To medio­
crity that is in power, excellence at a high 
subordinate level compounds the threat: 
every move the man makes show's up your 
own bumbling.

In everything he is and does — in his 
person, his teaching, his writing; in the 
vision of academic excellence that mani­
fests itself in his administrative and cur­
ricular innovations; in his ability to find 
and bring to Austin tile men who can make

of the University the Intellectual community 
it should be — John Silber embodies the 
quality of excellence that has made Texas 
a great university. For almost two years, 
from the summer of 1968 to last May, 
I had the privilege of working on his staff, 
where I saw in operation the administrative 
talents that have created and maintained 
the worldwide reputation Texas enjoys. To 
lose John Silber’s leadership at this crisis 
in the University's development would have 
been a catastrophe; 
it away 
smacks of madness.

Petition

We, the undersigned students and faculty at the- U niversity of Texas 
at Austin, strongly object to the rem oval of Dr. John R. Silber as 
Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences and the unorthodox method 
of his removal. We strongly request that tho U niversity adm inistration 
reconsider its action on Dean Silber and reinstate him "to his fo rm er 
post.

In addition, we petition the Board of Regents of the U niversity 
of Texas System to reject the proposal to divide the College of Arts 
and Sciences as presented by President Ad Interim Bryce Jordan 
and Chancellor-elect Charles A. LeM aistre.

We ask the hoard to restructure the College of Arts and Sciences 
along the guidelines set forth in the m ajority report of the Special 
Commission on the Reorganization of the College.

for July 18, 1970, Terry Coleman reports 
a conversation he has had with the Italian 
scholar in charge of the excavations at 
Hercudaneum. Why not, he proposes, colla­
borate with one of the American universi­
ties — and the first one he thinks of is 
"great, big” Texas. Everyone knows that 
in another five years the University will 
be even "greater, bigger” — cultural en­
tropy disdains quantities — but I fear these 
words will have reverted to their original 
local meaning.

Since I no longer work for Dean Silber, 
and within a year will have left the Univer­
sity, I have no immediate personal concern

responsible inquiry by bringing in sharp, 
broad-minded teachers and counselors and 
most important in my view, by boosting 
tho role of inter-disciplinary studies on this 
campus. In the light of your hard work 
to insure the integrity and potential of UT 
scholars, I find it abominable that you 
should be ousted in such an ignoble manner.
It is most demoralizing of course to those 
of us who wish to have a say in the 
direction the University is taking; our opin­
ions needn’t even be ignored this time as 
they were never solicited. I will be anxious 
to see what comes of this latest breach 
of faith on the part of the administration:

Repugnant

To the editor:

The firing of Dr. John Silber from his 
position as the Dean of the College of Arts 
and Sciences is completely repugnant to 
the majority of students here at the Uni­
versity. This blatantly political act is the 
culmination of a series of systematic 
resignations that has seen the finest ad­
ministrators at our University leave their 
posts. We have lost our respected Chancel­
lor Harry Ransom. We have lost the most 
ad m ired university' president in the South, 
Dr. Norman Hackerman. Now our Dean 
has been removed.

All students should express their feelings 
about what has happened to our University. 
You should let your feeling be known by 
writing 
to Bryce Jordan and Charles 
LeMaistre at the Main Building. We must 
not let the faculty be the only group that 
expresses Its disgust with the way Frank 
Erwin is destroying our University'.

Noose

I awoke this morning. Saturday, turned 
on the radio, and learned that John Silber 
no longer u’orks here. It was Saturday and 
I wasn’t shaving; if I had been I’m sure 
I would have cut myself. For in spite of 
the fact that rumors have been flying for 
months, Silber’s dismissal at this time (in 
mid-summer, on Friday night, a week be­
fore the crucial regents’ meeting of July 
31) and in this way (summary) descended 
like a thunderbolt.

One may speculate about the ultimate 
sources of this action, though it can hardly 
seem a surprise or a happy coincidence 
when Frank Erwin announces that the ad­
ministration has the full confidence of the 
regents.

The ultimate implications are also matter 
for speculation. But they are all ominous. 
For one thl.g. Silber’s dismissal reveals 
that there is a noose around every neck 
in this university. If a dean with a record 
like Silber’s can be fired because "the In­
terests of the University require it,” then 
anyone on this campus can be liberated 
on the m a t nonpretext.

BEYOND THE persona! peril, one see* 
even more terrifying vistas. The present
quality of arts and sciences is in great 
part the work of John Silber. His dismissal 
makes it clear that politics of the worst 
sort can triumph easily over some of the 
best academic and educational endeavors. 
Hereabouts, anyway. The prospect of a UT 
that has become somebody’s private poli­
tical powerhouse (no matter whose) is not 
pleasing. It does not strain the imagination 
to foresee a mass departure of the faculty, 
a kind of intellectual exodus, from such 
an Egyptian bondage.

Silber’s dismissal should at least make 
one thing clear. The issue of the proposed 
division of arts and sciences is not to be 
confused with the question of John Silber’s 
deanship. In the past, I believe, many of 
the faculty have allowed these questions 
to become tangled. There have been those 
w’ho have favored the division of the college 
as a way of getting rid of Silber. But not 
that the administration has decided to de­
capitate the king before dissolving the king­
dom, it should be evident that the questions 
are distinct. The proposed division of the 
college should he seen for wrhat it is: divide 
et impera. And w'hile divide-and-conquer 
may be good policy for the divider, the 
faculty in both arts and sciences should 
be aw’are that the divided always perish.
I hope that in the wake of this latest coup 
all my colleagues in arts and sciences, 
whatever they think or have thought of 
John Silber, will double their efforts to 
stop the division of the rtiUege: sign the 
petition, write letters, do whatever reason 
and the urgency of thp situation demand. 
It may well he our own corporate academic 
life we are fighting for. The alternatives 
are fairly clear, and I at least do not care 
to hang separately.

(Editor's Note: Following Is a letter to 

the ad interum president)
Dear Dr. Jordan:

I am writing to express my deep concern 
over your proposed reorganization of the 
College of Arts and Sciences. First, let 
me say how offensive I found the procedure 
used to arrive at your reorganization plan, 
in particular thp minimal amount of con­
sultation with the faculty members destined 
to be most affected by any such reorgani­
zation. Surely, no serious desire on your 
part for informed advice should have been 
restricted to faculty members who have 
taken no public stand on 
the issues in 
question. I cannot accept the view' that 
my nuTi opinion, for example, is irrelevant 
in the making of administrative decisions 
I will have to lire with. After having served 
last spring as the representative of the 
philosophy department 
the Special 
Commission on the Reorganization of the 
College of Arts and Sciences, I feel more 
— not less — qualified to express an opinion 
on the issues of reorganization than some 
of my colleagues who have taken no public 
stand.

to 

I MIGHT ADD that I came to the com­
mission meetings with an open mind. no 
previous commitments, and a considerable 
sympathy for those physical scientists who 
argued for independent divisions of 
the 
independent colleges). After 
college (not 
listening to many witnesses and carefully 
considering many points of view, I became 
convinced that the alleged benefits in the 
way of greater teaching effectiveness and 
more adequate financing were hardly likely 
to foliow from any restructuring of the 
College of Arts and Sciences into separate 
divisions with separate deans and separate 
fa (ailties. Your own plan goes even further 
in the direction of fragmenting both the 
faculty and the student body. In general, 
I would not expect much good from any 
attempt by some higher administrator 
(such as a provost ) to impose unity whether 
through cajolery or coercion. The only aca­
demic 
curricular, 
pedagogical, or organizational — worth 
pursuing is that which can emerge from 
the 
voluntary 
faculty and students themselves.

unity — whether 

One of my primary' reasons for leaving 
the University of Chicago for the University 
of Texas six years ago was my hope — 
up to this point amply fulfilled — for close 
collaboration with colleagues 
in other 
departments. Involved as I am at present 
in many cross-disciplinary courses in the 
history, philosophy, and cultural impact of 
science, I feel very strongly the importance 
of preserving a unified faculty of arts and 
sciences — a desideratum which is ap­
parently totally ignored in your proposed 
plan.

I STRONGLY urge you not to submit 
any plan to the Board of Regents for reor­
ganizing the College of Arts and Sciences 
which violates the spirit, and indeed also 
the letter, of both majority and minority 
reports of the Special Commission on the 
Reorganization of the College of Arts and 
Sciences. To submit such a plan is to risk 
grave damage to the cause of genuinely 
Liberal undergraduate education at 
the 
University of Texas.

Chiefs to Play All-Stars

CHICAGO (AP) — The world champion Kansas City Chiefs, given 
a week’s furlough from the Wampum War to prepare for 
the 
collegians, will be at least a 10-point favorite for the thirty-seventh 
annual All-Star football game in Soldier Field Friday night.

That’s the early word from Las Vegas, where oddsmakers say 
the spread would be a couple of touchdowns if the Chiefs had been 
in their Liberty, Mo., training camp all along.

Saturday to start organized drills for the charity game while other 
National Football I-eague veterans remain out of camp.

Meanwhile, negotiations in the contract dispute between the NFL 
in Philadelphia 

Players Association and club owners continue 
meetings with federal mediators.

The All-Stars haven't beaten the pro champs since Coach Otto 
Graham’s 1963 club downed the Green Bay Packers 20-17 when the 
Wisconsin battery of Eon VanderKelen to Pat Richter produced a 
74-yard touchdown in the final quarter.

The graduated collegians have won only three of the last 19 games 

and the series record is lopsided for the pros, 25-9-2.

It always has been the problem of taking a group of 50 or so campus 
heroes and welding them into a unit functioning as a team during 
a mere three weeks of practices.

Time always was against the All-Stars, while the pros started their 
training as a cohesive force that needed only sharpening and weight- 
watching.

Team Will Be Ready

Although the Chiefs' veterans have been drilling on their own until 
the lockout was lifted, experts figure Coach Hank Strain can have 
them pretty well set with just a week's notice,

"They’ve snapped back better than I expected,” said Strain In 

directing a crash refresher course.

Graham said he would like to think that the Chiefs' bobtailed 

training schedule could work as an advantage for the All-Stars.

"The Chiefs, though, are a very proud, dedicated team and will 
be ready physically and mentally,” he adds. "But we can give them 
a battle’if we don’t get anybody injured early.”

 Officials to Meet 
With HEW Team 

On Desegregation

By SIMON B EN FIE LD

H ie dynamics of authority w ill 
display 
semi-public 
go 
Tuesday morning when three rep­
resentatives of the Austin school 
system meet the federal gov­
ernment 
faoe-to-faoe at 
Texas Education Agency offices 
to discuss integration.

team 

Billed as a last-minute attempt 
by a civil rights team from 
Washington 
to negotiate vol­
local 
untary 
schools, the meeting is considered 
mare likely to be a curtain raiser 
for a Justice Department lawsuit.

integration 

at 

School board members have 
said the board does not intend 
to present any new integration 
plans at its 9 a.m. meeting, which 
vail last one hour. Last week in 
W a s h i n g t o n a government 
spokesman said if the attempt 
does not work the district can 
expect a lawsuit and a court or­
der to integrate by the fall.

The three men representing the 
Austin school system — Board 
President Roy A. Butler, School 
Superintendent Irby Carruth and 
the board’s attorney, J.M . Pat­

terson Jr . — wffl not be alone
when they meet the federal men. 
With them w ill be representatives 
of 47 other Texas school districts, 
who w ill meet with the civil 
rights team individually after an 
8:30 a.m. general session in the 
T EA building, 201 E . lith St.

According 

to Mrs. Dorothy 
Stuck, HEW regional director in 
Dallas, who attended a sim ilar 
meeting recently in Arkansas. 26 
of the 32 school districts there 
managed to come up with plans 
acceptable to HEW . The re-

malnfcig six were sued by fb i
Justice Department this month.

Mrs. Exalton Delco, a school 
board member, said last week 
she felt the meeting was only 
“ a gesture before the Justice De­
partment brings a suit” against 
the district.

Board member W ill Davis told 
a reporter Sunday, ‘‘I don’t think 
they’re (the team) coming here 
to issue an ultimatum.”

And Carruth has said, “ we w ill 
see what suggestions they have 
to offer and what they want us 
to do.”

Af present Austin Si operating
a freedom of choice integration 
plan that was found unacceptable 
Ju ly 9 by a HEW examiner who 
ruled that since the school dis­
trict was operating eight racially 
identifiable schools the district 
was in violation of the 1964 C ivil 
Rights Act. The schools, which 
include Anderson High School, 
have all black or almost all blade 
student bodies.

But Butler feels the schools are 
black only because they serve 
black neighborhoods.

tho 

lawsuit by 

federal
government might be seen as a 
convenient solution — without 
loss of face in Austin — to the 
differences between HEW and the 
school system.

According to a spokesman for 
the State attorney general’s office 
Monday, the federal government 
could obtain a court, order com­
pelling the school board to come 
up with an integration plan ao 
ceptable to HEW . If board mem­
bers failed to do so, they could 
be held in contempt of court —• 
and theoretically jailed.

 Problems, Projects Fill Silber's Career

By CYNDI TAYLOR
T e n s Staff Writer
Friday s dism issal of Dr. John 
Silber a s Dean of the College of 
Arts and Sciences marked a 
sharp dive 
in power attained 
during a rising 15-year career 
within the University.

A philosophy professor, Silber 
cam e to the University in 1955 
from Yale, where he received his 
MA and PhD. He becam e acting 
chairman of the philosophy de­
in 1961 and was ap­

in 1962. His 
appointment as Dean of Arts and 
Sciences cam e Dec. I, 1967.

Differences with University 
o f f i c i a l s , notably President 
Norman Hackerman, over 
the 
solution to administrative prob­
lems of the University’s largest 
college dominated hts last year 
in this post.

Silber contends that the College 
of Arts and Sciences Is not too 
big for one man to handle but 
that he does need four associates, 
appointed by him, to help with 
office work. These four would

Hackerman, on the other hand, 
vocalizing 
the desire of some 
other University officials, favored 
dividing arts and sciences 
into 
separate sm aller colleges.

Reacting to Silber’s removal, 
a special committee of the Arts 
and Sciences Foundation pointed 
out Silber’s “ national recognition 
as the originator of innovative 
methods of meeting the individual 
needs of students who would oth-

described as critically important 
by Dr. Clifton Grubbs, temporary

Senate was formed last fall to 
give faculty7 a voice on campus 
issues without 
administrative 
censorship.

OU President Hollomon Quits
Because of Threat of Tyranny'

Amid political pressure Culver

A troupe of native dancers

audience with its art but with 
the 
joi de vivre the dancers 
exhibited.

The program opened with a 
dance portraying the capturing of 
the hand of the tribal chief’s 
beautiful young daughter. The
daughter is very sad and the 
chief promises that the man who

hand.

What followed was a fun-filled 
attempt of various colorfully- 
dressed tribesmen to coax the 
young princess into laughter. B y

and sensual background to the 
dances.

Perhaps most exciting was the 
dance performed in the show’s 
second half illustrating the role 
of witchdoctor in native Zambian 
society. A young g irl is hexed 
by an e vil witch and falls into 
a stupor. She is thought to be 
dead until two tribesmen realize 
she is s till alive. The witchdoctor 
comes to the rescue and with 
his incantations and cerem ony he 
revives the girl.

P a rtly through the witchdoc­
tor’s dance the curtains closed 
and one of the perform ers came 
on stage to explain that the g irl 
who played the role of the hexed 
g irl had become 550 involved in 
her part that she had tru ly lost

years. He found yet another in

HOLLYWOOD (AP) - When 
"The Godfather" was published, 
its 
many readers marveled at 
detailed picture of life in a Mafia 
"family" and 
that 
author Mario Puzo must have 
had inside information.

suspected 

He smiles at the suggestion.
"I grew up in New York hear­
ing stories about the Mafia, and 
I’ve gambled a great deal, so 
I’ve observed the operation. But 
I don’t know it from the Inside."

What was the reaction of the 

Mafioso?

Mafia Likes Book 

like i t I hear this from 
friends who are in a position to 
know. Or I run into guys in Las 
Vegas who clap me on 
the 
shoulder and say that I am a 
truth teller.

" ‘The Godfather* was a ro­
manticized version of what the 
Mafia life Is like. They’re really 
not that nice. Oh, they can be 
charming on social occasions, 
and their family 
is very

"The Godfather" if one of the

to book clubs. Published 
months ago in paperback, it has 
racked up 4.5 million copies sold.
Puzo is in Hollywood to convert 

the novel into a movie script.

Paramount bought the screen

rights at somewhat of a bargain.

"I sold an option for $12,000 
on the basis of the first IOO 
pages," Puzo recalled.

With escalation clauses, Puzo 
will make $100,000 from the sale, 
plus his salary as script writer

Ballet Movement 
Gains Popularity

(c ) N. Y. Times News Service
Ballet in America is getting on 
its feet far from the metropolitan 
stages.

Dance talent lives everywhere, 
and 
the regional ballet youth 
movement, now extending coast 
to coast, is training thousands of 
involved teenagers.

Many dancers in professional 
companies today have 
trained 
with regional companies, says 
Robert Jaffrey, director of the 
company bearing his name.

Joffrey, at 

the Southeastern 
Regional Ballet Festival in Nash­
ville, Tenn., described the fast- 
changing trends resulting from 
the growth of regional ballet, a 
development of dance 
the 
community. "So much talk,” he 
said, "of our restless youth. But 
a more disciplined, hardworking 
crew in regional ballet doesn’t 
exist. And that’s true of their 
teacher-directors, too,"

in 

Four hundred directors and 
dancers were present at the post-

Gala Performance banquet at 
Nashville’s elegant Cumberland 
Club in late ApriL On another 
weekend, in Little Rock, Ark., 
Southwestern Regional Ballet 
A s s o c i a t i o n companies per­
formed. In mid-May, dancers of 
the Pacific Association gathered 
to dance in San Diego. In late 
May, Northeastern Association 
companies from states east of the 
Mississippi and north of 
the 
including 
Mason-Dixon 
Canada, were guest of 
the 
Toronto Regional Ballet.

l i n e , 

Dorothy Alexander, founder of 
the 40-year-old Atlanta Ballet, 
also founded the regional ballet 
movement by hosting the first
festival, in Atlanta, in 1956. The 
Northeast organized and made its 
debut in a Wilkes-Barre, Pa., fes­
tival in 1959. The Southwest pre­
sented itself in Austin in 1963 and 
the Pacific’s premiere was 
in 
Sacramento, Calif, 
in 1966. To 
date there have been 39 festivals.

profits.

Puzo wears his success well. 
He is a life-loving Italian-Ameri­
can with straight blade hair, 
lively eyes behind thick lenses, 
a round face and belly to match. 
He makes no secret oI his delight 
in his newfound wealth.

"All my life I’ve been paying 
six to five to the loan sharks," 
he said* "It s great at last to 
be able to take off for Puerto 
Rico or Florida, Just because I 
feel like going."

Clicked in Magazines

Puzo has been writing all his 
life, but until IO years ago he 
never earned enough from ft to 
support his wife and five chil­
dren, A native New Yorker, he 
worked as a civil servant until 
he started clicking in the maga­
zine field. He produced two nov­
els, "The Dark Arena" and "The 
F o r t u n a t e Pilgrim," both 
critically acclaimed but poor 
sellers.

He presented the idea for a 
Mafia novel to has publishers, 
Athaneaum, but they turned it 
down. So did Harcourt, Brace. 
But when he told Putnam editors 
some Mafia tales "many of the 
stories in the book I heard as 
a boy," they signed him.

As soon as he 

finishes the 
movie script, Puzo expects to 
start on his next novel. He faces 
the problem of any person who 
scores a hit: what to do for an 
encore.

but he does wonder aloud about 
the 
fate of "Tile Assistant." 
Elliott Gould and Jade Brodsky 
have had his story of a Jewish 
grocer, hts sensitive daughter and 
the gentile with whom she falls 
in love, on their production slate 
for more than a year. "I turned 
the script in about eight months 
ago," he says with mock tension, 
"and I’m still waking for them 
to exercise their right to ask for

keeping Gould? He's only made 
six movies this year.

Money is the root of an awful 
lot of evil. says Richard Brooks, 
and that belief is the root of his 
new film. The movie, titled 
has been written and directed by 
Brooks and will be produced by 
Mike Frankovieh for Columbia 
Pictures. It will begin shooting 
probably in Vienna or Hamburg, 
k l October.

Brooks, who doesn t believe in 
dreaming small, has hopes of 
getting Paul Newman or Steve 
McQueen or Warren Beatty for 
the role of 
the with-it Robin 
Hood. It might take a bit of that 
evil old green stuff to get; them, 
though.

NEW YORK — Bernard 
Malamud 
is getting to be the 
grooviest, moviest author around. 
A film version of his novel "The 
Fixer” appeared last season, the 
movie of his short story "The 
Angel Levine" opens here soon, 
and adaptations of his "Black Is 
My Favorite Color" and "The 
Assistant" have also been an­
nounced. Now Malamud's latest 
book. "Pictures of Firem an,” 
has been purchased by producers 
Stuart Millar and Elliott Kastner. 
They’re playing it cagey when 
It comes to saying how much 
they’ve paid for the movie rights 
to the book, but they do admit 
that Malamud will participate in 
the profits of tlu"* film, which will 
be shot in Italy next year.

18-Year-Olds Can Register

Potential Voters May Sign Up October I

By CYNDI TAYLOR

Texan Staff Writer

An awaited U.S. Supreme Court 
ruling on constitutionality of the 
lowered voting age 
law still 
stands between 18-year-olds and 
the polls. However, in Texas, a t 
least, these potential voters will 
be able to apply to register as 
voters beginning O ct I.

Randall Wood, director of elec­
tions, said that if the Supreme 
Court has not ruled by Oct. I 
(and it is doubtful that it will 
have) on the section of the 1970 
Voting Rights Bill which lowrers 
tax 
the voting 
age, 
in­
assessors-collectors will be 
structed 
to accept applications 
from 18, 19 and 20-year-old
Texans as well as those 21 and 
over.

However,

cer­
tificates will not be malled to 
this newly-franchised age group 
until the court holds the federal 
law valid. Wood explained that | 
this procedure would not inhibit 
the voting rights of 18 to 20-year- 
olds because the law does not 
become effective until March,

1971 with 
scheduled for April.

“ We hope for a Supreme Court 
decision by Jan. I ,” Wood said, 
“ and don’t feel it will be past 
Jan. 31,” the deadline for voter 
registration.

U.S. Atty7. Gen. John Mitchell 
is attempting to bring a test case 
on the law before the Supreme 
Court as soon as possible to avoid 
problems which might arise were 
the law declared unconstitutional.
Such a ruling would return to

the states the power to set the 
voting age. A state constitutional 
amendment to lower the voting 
age to 18 nearly passed the Texas 
House of Representatives during 
the last legislative session. Its 
passage during the next session 
could send it to state voters in 
November, 1971, Wood said.

“He was in the way of the

“He 
didn’t want to split up the arts 
and sciences because he was 
afraid that the arts would get 
slighted. It was no surprise to 
me — Rd heard rumors for a
