producers. According to. TAC
worker
Floyd
Alwon, '.'the
demonstration will be even more
forceful than the one which
took place last week."
The demonstration, which was
held last Saturday, started in the
late
morning and lasted for
several hours. Some of
the
A&P
customers
_did
in fact refuse to
purchase
produce they ha_d
originally
intended to buy.
However, the presence of the
demonstrators. prompted some
•
adverse reactions. Students were
hailed with cries of "You should
be. out working," and
_some
shoppers even began to throw
grapes at the demonstrators.
Apparently some women were
buying grapes in anti-protest. At
one point a sign was placed in
front of the A&P grape stand
which rea~ «Stop Communism.
Buy California Grapes." Many
shoppers
were
obviously
annoyed by _!he presence of the
•
demonstrators.
The
manager
of
the
Poughkeepsie A&P informed the
Marist students that he was paid
to sell groceries and he would
continue to do just that. The
students reasoned that support
·of
the
grape
boycott
•
representated a demand for the
rights that
"havt'-
•
been enjoyed
by most white Americans for
over thirty years and. that a
refusal to sell grapes would only
represent an infinitesimal!mount
of A&P's weekly sales."
Some of the demands being
made by the
UFW Union
members include recognition of
the
uni on, toilet and . other
sanitary facilities, cool drinking
water during hot weather, and
the
elimination

discrimination

Just what then is UNI? This is

St. Pickets
As this
edition
of the Circle
goes
to press, members of Thought,
Action, Communication arc working
oi:i
the final stages of a planned
picket of the Main Street. A & P. If tomorrow's demonstration
occurs with the strength
of five colleges,
as
TAC invisions;
Poughkeepsie will have even more irate citizens to deal with. And
if
tomorrow's
demonstration
garners the
same
results as TAC's
previous display of discontent,
it is
questionable if, in fact, TAC is at
all aiding the
cause
of the United Farm Workers Union.
What the Circle is
suggesting
is simply that TAC investigate all
channels of
communication
with the management of A & P and
the
Poughkeepsie community
itself. Demonstrations
have obviously
become the most popular means of protest by
college
students in
general - but in thjs case is demonstration the most effective means?
Obviously members of TAC realize that they may be hurling the
cause of the Union by alienating further the alienated city of
Poughkeepsie. Yet it is the sincere hope of the Circle that the
message of the migrant workers'
attempt
at unionization
is
communicated, even
if
the only form of
communication
is a Main
Street picket line.
. .
.
Off the picket line, TAC is providing the college with an
imaginative and varied presentation of student
.and
professional art
works, covering all mediums.· Their "Angry Arts Weekend," which is
scheduled for November 22, 23, and 24, will donate any raised funds
to the Appalachia Club, the Biafrian Fund and the Martin Luther
King
Jr.
Committee. The event will begin Friday evening with
a
combination
folk-rock concert
and mixer. On Sa tu relay
,rn
exhibition and sale of student and professional art work will be
presented. Those involved in the art sale
arc
hoping that
•resident
•
students will consider investing in a piece of art to
create
a less
sterile atmosphere in the dorms. Also on Saturday afternoon the
presentation of an original play, written and directed by Richard
Carn, will be followed by an
anti-war
film entitled "The King and his
Country" starring Djrk Bogard. That evening at
8,
the theater will
set the scene for poetry readings, dance, and recitals. Daniel Dufault,
\\rho has received political recogrution by running as I,,ibcral Party
candidate for the 17th Congressional District, will read
a
selection of
his poetry.
•
•
Support of TAC's weekend,
especially
their Art Sale, is important
not only in cultural and social terms, but in terms of student support
for student groups.

news is going to be duller now that Wallace will be returning to
Alabama Country and General "Whats-his-name" will go where ever
defeated generals go (General Custers' Old Age Home).
It was odd watching the Presidential race from the other side of
the fence. I was really amazed at the concern and interest the British
had during the entire campaign. In some British eyes, we are still
English colonies; most people here, however, don't really understand
us. The election was a complete mystery to most people; they
thought Humphrey and Nixon were believable (Agnew, however,
confused them
..
as to the reality of it all). Wallace·· was beyond
comprehension, they thought he was for comic relief.
Evcrday the British press carried the details of each candidates'
progress. Day by day British News Programs began to look more like
N.B.C. This was the first Election the British would see just as
America did.
At 11 :SO (English time), B.B.C. started coverage live from New
York. (Usually they go off the air about this time). Most of the
Americans and a few brave English students prepared to watch the
vigil. B.B.C. didn't know how long they would continue coverage,
but everyone was prepared for a long night.
The announcer began the program in these words: ''Tliis is the
most important election we may see in our lifetime. Viewers may
ask what this has to do with Britian. Directly nothing, but even
though we can't vote, the man elected is not only the President of
the United States, but President of the Western World. He will
determine a good deal of our policy; he will also play an active part
on the impact of British economy."
"Wallace, the super hawk, may cause a great deal of trouble in this
election.
Whoever is elected, will have to try and settle the American
domestic problem. It seems as if
_America
is headed for a complete
nervous breakdown."
'
For the first time, I .realized how important the President is; his
policy could make or break Europe, something Europe is ashamed to
admit. The part America plays in Europe is a question o{ great
debate. England is semi-dependent on our money, but they still have
national pride. [n our dealings with. Europe, we often forget that
they are individuals, proud
.
of their country; we just can't run
through Europe belittling everything they do. Regardless of what
political or economic situation they are in, we have to remember
they have existed almost five times as long as we have.
England does not want to be considered a S 1st state, they would
like to resume some national face lost during two world wars.
America can help and
it
is
up
to Nixon to do it, but we have to do it
without lauding it over them; and at the same time remember we are
Americans and proud of it.
Most people seemed satisfied with Nixon and_ would have probably
been just as satisfied with Humphrey. (Satellite problems gave the
British a scare at one time during the election. A sign flashed across
the screen showing Wallace with. 40!i Electoral votes!) B.ut I. won~er

the government predicted that
schools might lose up to 70 per
cent of their first-year students.
They forecast a great increase in
.
female and middle-aged graduate
students.
Selective
Service
officials
predicted that students would
make up as much as 90 per cent
of the draft call-ups in many
states. The Defense Department
said
63 per cent of the 240,000
draftees
predicted for 1969
would
be students. Students
made up
3.8 per cent this year.
But
the
crunch failed to
materialize this fall. For one
thing, draft calls beginning in
July were drastically lower than
those for previous months. And
they will stay that way until
January when the elections are
we)I
over.
How much calls will rise· will
depend on the manpower needs
of the armed forces, the status
of • the Vietnam war, and the
mood of the new President. But
they arc sure to rise at least a
little. according to Mrs. Betty
Vetter,
an official
of
the
Scientific
Manpower
Commission, a private research
agency in Washington.
•
Her prediction is based on the
fact that draft caJls for the last
few years have run in 18-month
cycles; the high point of the
latest cycle is due in January
1969.
Whatever the increase, it is

But despite the fact that total
graduate enrollment has changed
very little -
in numbers, the
edict
has not been without
effect.
Graduate
schools. at several
universities have reported drops
• in enrollment from one to 20
per cent. Professional schools

Valparaiso University, 25 of 150
students enrolled in the Law
School
didn't
register
in
September.
Lehigh University
reports a 13 per cent decrease in
enrollment.
And at many schools, graduate
departments found that women
and older (over-26) men made
up larger
portions of their
enrollees than ever before. Some
schools
claimed
that
their
students are of lower ability

graduate students. Young men

experience.
And graduate
students this year. knowing they
are sitting atop the proverbial
powder keg and may get the
Jetter any day, are unusually
nervous and fearful.
Universities, which opposed
the
move
to end graduate
deferments, arc reacting to their
students' concern in many ways.
Several
heavily
graduate
universities,
among
them
Massachusetts
Institute
of
Technology,
have announced
that students whose education is
interrupted by the draft -· either
.
for
two years of service or for a
jail
sentence for resistance - will
later be able to resume .their
degree work where they left off,
and
will stand a good chance of
having
their
fellowships
renewed.
Several
schools
are
also
investigating
new
degree'
programs like MIT's five-year
engineering program - in which
the student does not officially
receive
his bachelor's degree
until he receives his master's in a
fifth year (and so is classed as an
undergraduate for five years).
The
institutions
are
untlerstandably vexed: Many of
them -
like their students -
concurred
with
the
1967
recommendations
of the
president's Commission on the
Draft. The Commission's report
suggested a. two-pronged attack
on the draft's present inequities
and
injustices:
·abolition of
student deferments and reversal
of the present oldest-first system
so that 19-year-olds would be
drafted
first - preferably by
lottery.
Fairness and equity required

most powerful
instrument is her voice, which
defies the scales as it rips up and
down them, graveling at theiI
deep depths and screeching at
their tippy-tops. The words that
she sings really need not have
any meaning, since it is the
juggling, and not the oranges,
that really counts.
How can I put an hour of
climax and ecstasy into words,
except to say that it happened?
Janis Joplin has happened. Like
Gertrude Stein put to music,
Janis night trains the ends of
many phrases, repeating them,
until they are a litany of pain
and emotion and not just
a set
of words. Breathing heavily at
the soft edges of her songs, she
becomes a soulful negress; from
the warm darkness of soul, she
lifts her voice into banter and
becomes
a chattering
nag,
needling her man; searing higher,
her
voice trembles past the
hysterical Wayne Newton zone

of intensity.

Big
Brother and the Holding
Company, without Janis Joplin,
is a group without a soul. She is
always the last to come on stage
since she is the first person the
audience wants to see. It would
be an understatement to say that
Janis Joplin is the catalyst in the
whole
•
emotional chemistry of
the performance; without her,
Big Brother is just another rock
group. By this I do not mean to
debase them, but only to classify
them. Their lead guitarist Peter
Albin is occasionally brilliant on
the
strings and
on
the bass as
well, but his voice is pale and
narrow after Janis'.
The voice and songs of Janis
Joplin somehow need a man in
the background, since the tunes
are· really a pantomime of love
and its drawbacks. That man is
Sam Andrews. His voice is best
set in this chorus work.
