MAN: An Open Appeal
Thursday, April 29, the second
meeting of the new Archaeology
Club (now named M.A.N.—Man 's
Adaption to Nature) met. A good
turnout was expected. At our first
meeting about forty people
showed up. It was a good turnout
considering that at the Union the
Graduate was being shown at the
same time.
Basically , the whole idea
behind M.A.N. is to see how man
adapted himself to nature in the
past, the consequences of his
mistakes, and the prospect for
the future. The only way we can
accomplish this is to experience
it. We cannot learn by reading
how it was, we can learn by
feeling and experiencing how it
is. Therefore, most, if not all , of
our programs are oriented
toward this. It is an individual
experience. No formalities, no
restrictions , just communication.
This is not just another
organization that will soon die
because of lack of interesting and
exciting programs. Hell, we have
the programs, all we need is the
people.
To give you an idea of some of
the activities we have planned,
below is a capsule summary of
the four committees that are in
M.A.N.: (Every member will
belong to as many as he or she
wishes.)

Letter s
May z, 1971
Dear Sirs:
Recently the peace symbol has
been an object of intense
criticism. Naturally , the pro-war
advocates attack the symbol. One
of the ways this group attacks it
is by tracing its origin to
revolutionarycauses of the past.
This is probably an attempt to
discredi t the entire peace
movement. However , a few
moderate sympathizers of the
peace crusade are also skeptical
of the peace symbol's worth. At
l e a s t they are weary of its
significance as a personification
of the peace movement's, principles, or the sincerity oi those
who wear it. These critics of the
peace symbol claim that it has
b e e n commercialized by clever
merchandisers who made it a
fa shionable ornament void of its
message of non-violence. They
also say that it has lost
significance because now
everybody wears one, even little
children.
Granted , the peace symbol
might have been commercialized
and degraded in the process, but I
think the widespreadsale and use
of the peace symbol might in-
dicate * trend in American
thought. The consumer buying
habits are a small but unimportant barometer of the community's values. I would like to
see rows of peace symbols on the 1
shelves in five-and-ten-cent
stores rather than GI Joe dolls
and toy machine guns. Maybe the
wide 'sprea d use of the peace
symbol shows just how many
Americans are questioning the
morality of war. And maybe it
shows how many people prefer
choosing passive means of
solving disputes rather than
belligerent actions . That is, not
o n l y international disputes, but
also disputes which arise in the
family, between neighbors or at
work. About those little children
who brandish the peace symbol,
maybe they will learn its sacred
meaning as they grow older and
mold their lives around the
principle of peace.
I sincerely hope that the peace
symbol conti nues to appear
frequentl y on any person, at any
place, or on any object. It's a
good sign - in more than one way.
Yours in Peace,
James Bucci

depicting a small group of cleancut , well-dressed, polite students;
sitting in the principal's office ,
The principal is saying, "I certainly am glad to see that at least:
some of the young people today

not the entire newspaper 's
opinions. The calls on May 4,
consisted of the respective individual's opinions, not the entire
town's opinions . And thank God
for that because it makes me feel
~
a lot safer.
However , I would be guliible to
doubt that many people empathize with those who spoke in
opposition to the demonstrations
and rallies. The arguments are
too widespread. Most of them
reeked of the standard Communist paranoia ("the Commie
professors are brainwashing our
kids! It's all indoctrination!").
What most of these people don't
seem to realize (or refuse to
realize) is that one-sentence
solution to all our socio-political
ills: "My Country Right or
Wrong," perpetrated by the John
Waynes and Spiro Agnews of this
country , is as much a form of
indoctrination as any of Mao's
sayings.
But through it all, the students
somehow kept their cool. If I had
been on the panel, I would have
exploded at what I considered
totally assinine arguments.
However, even without an excitable character among them,
the students were rebuked. People just refused to listen. If

stinking war . Nixon ignored
them. They turned in their
decorations in protest and
camped out on the Capitol
grounds. A few were arrested, a
rumor was spread that Nixon had
said he believed only 30 per cent
of those demonstrating were
actually Vietnam veterans, and
Secretary of State Rogers
claimed that although the administration "sympathized" with
the veterans, the majority of
veterans assuredly "felt differently." A week after the
veterans' arrival , • Nixon said,
"The Congress is not intimidated .
This government is going to go

refuses to admit that Vietnam
veterans could actually demand
immediate withdrawal.

Another standard argument is
die one about our government
officials. Since we elected them,
we should respect them and
follow their policies. I had no say
in Nixon 's election. But even if I
had had the chance to cast my
ballot against him in 1968, I'd still
be saying what I'm saying now.
So he's the President. I respect
him as a human being, but I have
no respect for his actions. He
may have the power to command , but I'll be damned iif I'm
going to die or stand back and
allow my friends to die for the
mistakes he has made. Nixon
keeps saying that he wants to
leave Vietnam in an honorable
way and that he doesn't want to
be the first President who "lost a
war." How would you like to be
the last American soldier to die in
Southeast Asia , just so Nixon
could preserve his "honor"?
During the past six years in
Vietnam, this country has lost
more face than a spastic shaving
with a straight razor. 45,000 are
dead. How many more will have
to die?
In the novel, Johnny Got His
Gun , Dalton Trumbo writes :
"When armies begin to move
and flags wave and slogans pop
up watch out little guy because
it's somebody else 's chestnuts in
the fire and not yours . It's words
you're fighting for and you're not
making an honest deal your life
lor something better. You 're
being noble and after you're
killed the thing you traded your

But what do the dead say?
Did anybody ever come back
from the dead any single one of
the millions who got killed did
any one of them ever come back
and say by God I'm glad I'm dead
because death is always better
than dishon or? Did they say I'm
glad I died to make the world safe

it's good to think I got my guts

right to speak for the dead.
....And all those guys who died
all the five million or seven
million or ten million who went
out and died to make the world
safe for democracy to make the
world safe for words without
meaning how did they feel about
it just before they died? How did
they feel as they watched their
blook pump out into the mud?
How did they feel when the gas
hit their lungs and began eating
them all away? How did they feel
as they lay cra zed in hospitals
and looked death straight in the
face and saw him come and take
them? If the thing they were
lighting for was important
enough to die for then it was also
important enough for them to
be thinking about it in the last
minutes of their lives . That stood
to reason. Life is awfully important so if you 've given it away
you 'd ought to think with all your
mind in the last moments of your
life about the thing you traded it
for . So did all those kids die
thinking of democracy and
freedom and liberty and honor
and the safety of the home and
the stars and stripes forever?
You 're goddamn right they

like little babies. They forgot the
tiling they were fighting for the
things they were dying for . They
thought about things a man can
understand. They died whimpering for the voice of a mother a
father a wife a child. They died
with their hearts sick for one
more look at the place where thev
were born please god just one
more look . They died moaning
and sighing for life. They knew
what was important . They knew
life was everything and they died
wi th screams and sobs. They died
with only one thought in their
minds and that was I want to live
I want to live I want to live."

There is a lot of work here, but
this represents only a portion "of
our programs. But without
students to participate in them,
they are dead. This is not a con
job. We are not going to ask
people to join because there is
apathy here; we are not asking
people to join because it's a great
club; we are not asking people to
join to gain status. We are asking
people to join to experience
yourselves. This club emphasizes
individuality . What we want is
communication, and maybe, just
maybe, we can start a change. An
individual student will be seen,
and heard , and listened to.
We know that tests, finals , book
reports are here and will be to the
end of school three weeks away.
So, we are not expecting a big
turnou t at the meetings for the
rest of the semester. So all we ask
is for you to let us know if you are
inte rested in any of these
programs. Give us your opinions,
your criticisms, but most of all,
give us you.

MAN: An Open Appeal
Thursday, April 29, the second
meeting of the new Archaeology
Club (now named M.A.N.—Man 's
Adaption to Nature) met. A good
turnout was expected. At our first
meeting about forty people
showed up. It was a good turnout
considering that at the Union the
Graduate was being shown at the
same time.
Basically , the whole idea
behind M.A.N. is to see how man
adapted himself to nature in the
past, the consequences of his
mistakes, and the prospect for
the future. The only way we can
accomplish this is to experience
it. We cannot learn by reading
how it was, we can learn by
feeling and experiencing how it
is. Therefore, most, if not all , of
our programs are oriented
toward this. It is an individual
experience. No formalities, no
restrictions , just communication.
This is not just another
organization that will soon die
because of lack of interesting and
exciting programs. Hell, we have
the programs, all we need is the
people.
To give you an idea of some of
the activities we have planned,
below is a capsule summary of
the four committees that are in
M.A.N.: (Every member will
belong to as many as he or she
wishes.)

May z, 1971
Dear Sirs:
Recently the peace symbol has
been an object of intense
criticism. Naturally , the pro-war
advocates attack the symbol. One
of the ways this group attacks it
is by tracing its origin to
revolutionarycauses of the past.
This is probably an attempt to
discredi t the entire peace
movement. However , a few
moderate sympathizers of the
peace crusade are also skeptical
of the peace symbol's worth. At
l e a s t they are weary of its
significance as a personification
of the peace movement's, principles, or the sincerity oi those
who wear it. These critics of the
peace symbol claim that it has
b e e n commercialized by clever
merchandisers who made it a
fa shionable ornament void of its
message of non-violence. They
also say that it has lost
significance because now
everybody wears one, even little
children.
Granted , the peace symbol
might have been commercialized
and degraded in the process, but I
think the widespreadsale and use
of the peace symbol might in-
dicate * trend in American
thought. The consumer buying
habits are a small but unimportant barometer of the community's values. I would like to
see rows of peace symbols on the 1
shelves in five-and-ten-cent
stores rather than GI Joe dolls
and toy machine guns. Maybe the
wide 'sprea d use of the peace
symbol shows just how many
Americans are questioning the
morality of war. And maybe it
shows how many people prefer
choosing passive means of
solving disputes rather than
belligerent actions . That is, not
o n l y international disputes, but
also disputes which arise in the
family, between neighbors or at
work. About those little children
who brandish the peace symbol,
maybe they will learn its sacred
meaning as they grow older and
mold their lives around the
principle of peace.
I sincerely hope that the peace
symbol conti nues to appear
frequentl y on any person, at any
place, or on any object. It's a
good sign - in more than one way.
Yours in Peace,
James Bucci

not the entire newspaper 's
opinions. The calls on May 4,
consisted of the respective individual's opinions, not the entire
town's opinions . And thank God
for that because it makes me feel
~
a lot safer.
However , I would be guliible to
doubt that many people empathize with those who spoke in
opposition to the demonstrations
and rallies. The arguments are
too widespread. Most of them
reeked of the standard Communist paranoia ("the Commie
professors are brainwashing our
kids! It's all indoctrination!").
What most of these people don't
seem to realize (or refuse to
realize) is that one-sentence
solution to all our socio-political
ills: "My Country Right or
Wrong," perpetrated by the John
Waynes and Spiro Agnews of this
country , is as much a form of
indoctrination as any of Mao's
sayings.
But through it all, the students
somehow kept their cool. If I had
been on the panel, I would have
exploded at what I considered
totally assinine arguments.
However, even without an excitable character among them,
the students were rebuked. People just refused to listen. If

be the Vietna
the War . Citizens of a country run
by a person heartless enough to
force them to fight an immoral
war many of them didn't understand , they came to
Washington two weeks ago.
Decorated veterans , disabled
veterans, men who had lost an
arm , a leg, an eye fighting this ?
stinking war . Nixon ignored
them. They turned in their
decorations in protest and
camped out on the Capitol
grounds. A few were arrested, a
rumor was spread that Nixon had
said he believed only 30 per cent
of those demonstrating were
actually Vietnam veterans, and
Secretary of State Rogers
claimed that although the administration "sympathized" with
the veterans, the majority of
veterans assuredly "felt differently." A week after the
veterans' arrival , • Nixon said,
"The Congress is not intimidated .
This government is going to go
forward ." Apparently , Nixon
refuses to admit that Vietnam
veterans could actually demand
immediate withdrawal.

Another standard argument is
die one about our government
officials. Since we elected them,
we should respect them and
follow their policies. I had no say
in Nixon 's election. But even if I
had had the chance to cast my
ballot against him in 1968, I'd still
be saying what I'm saying now.
So he's the President. I respect
him as a human being, but I have
no respect for his actions. He
may have the power to command , but I'll be damned iif I'm
going to die or stand back and
allow my friends to die for the
mistakes he has made. Nixon
keeps saying that he wants to
leave Vietnam in an honorable
way and that he doesn't want to
be the first President who "lost a
war." How would you like to be
the last American soldier to die in
Southeast Asia , just so Nixon
could preserve his "honor"?
During the past six years in
Vietnam, this country has lost
more face than a spastic shaving
with a straight razor. 45,000 are
dead. How many more will have
to die?
In the novel, Johnny Got His
Gun , Dalton Trumbo writes :
"When armies begin to move
and flags wave and slogans pop
up watch out little guy because
it's somebody else 's chestnuts in
the fire and not yours . It's words
you're fighting for and you're not
making an honest deal your life
lor something better. You 're
being noble and after you're
killed the thing you traded your
life for won 't do you any good and
chances are it won 't do anybody
else any good either.
Ma ybe that' s a bad wa y t o

are ideals wor t h f igh ting for even

* What the hell is principle? Name
it and you can have it.
You can always hear the people
who are willing to sacrifice
somebody else's life. They 're
plenty loud and they talk all the
time. You can find them in
churches and schools and
newspapers and legislatures and
Congress. That's their business.
They sound wonderful . Death
before dishonor . This ground
sanctified by blood. These men
who died so gloriously. They shall
not have died in vain. Our noble
dead.
Hmmmm .
But what do the dead say?
Did anybody ever come back
from the dead any single one of
the millions who got killed did
any one of them ever come back
and say by God I'm glad I'm dead
because death is always better
than dishon or? Did they say I'm
glad I died to make the world safe
for democracy ? Did they say I
like death better than losing
liberty ? Did any of them ever say
it's good to think I got my guts
blown out for the hon or of my
country ? Did any of them ever
say look at me I'm dead but I died
for decency and that's better than
being alive? Did any of them ever
say here I am I've been rotting
for two years in a foreign grave
but it's wonderful to die for your
native land? Did any of them say
hurray I died for womanhood and
I'm happy see how I sing even
though my mouth is choked with
worms?
Nobody but the dead kn ow
whether all these things people
talk about are worth dying for or
not . And the dead can 't talk. So

sacred blood and honor and such

robbers and fakes who have no
right to speak for the dead.
....And all those guys who died
all the five million or seven
million or ten million who went
out and died to make the world
safe for democracy to make the
world safe for words without
meaning how did they feel about
it just before they died? How did
they feel as they watched their
blook pump out into the mud?
How did they feel when the gas
hit their lungs and began eating
them all away? How did they feel
as they lay cra zed in hospitals
and looked death straight in the
face and saw him come and take
them? If the thing they were
lighting for was important
enough to die for then it was also
important enough for them to
be thinking about it in the last
minutes of their lives . That stood
to reason. Life is awfully important so if you 've given it away
you 'd ought to think with all your
mind in the last moments of your
life about the thing you traded it
for . So did all those kids die
thinking of democracy and
freedom and liberty and honor
and the safety of the home and
the stars and stripes forever?
You 're goddamn right they

like little babies. They forgot the
tiling they were fighting for the
things they were dying for . They
thought about things a man can
understand. They died whimpering for the voice of a mother a
father a wife a child. They died
with their hearts sick for one
more look at the place where thev
were born please god just one
more look . They died moaning
and sighing for life. They knew
what was important . They knew
life was everything and they died
wi th screams and sobs. They died
with only one thought in their
minds and that was I want to live
I want to live I want to live."

2. Presentation of studen t papers

general meetings.
There is a lot of work here, but
this represents only a portion "of
our programs. But without
students to participate in them,
they are dead. This is not a con
job. We are not going to ask
people to join because there is
apathy here; we are not asking
people to join because it's a great
club; we are not asking people to
join to gain status. We are asking
people to join to experience
yourselves. This club emphasizes
individuality . What we want is
communication, and maybe, just
maybe, we can start a change. An
individual student will be seen,
and heard , and listened to.
We know that tests, finals , book
reports are here and will be to the
end of school three weeks away.
So, we are not expecting a big
turnou t at the meetings for the
rest of the semester. So all we ask
is for you to let us know if you are
inte rested in any of these
programs. Give us your opinions,
your criticisms, but most of all,
give us you.
