WOMEN'S BASKETBALL The varsity basketball team, of the female sex, finished up the season with a disappointing 1-7 record. The fair quintent was coached hy Miss Mary Allen and led throughout the year by Linda Low man and Linda Jensen. However, hope rests for next year in the junior varsity team who managed to salvage a 3-2 record for the past winter. The JV has a decided height advantage over the var- sity, and their better record has led to speculation as to which THE ALL AMERICAN GAME AT CONCORDIA on is the better. Miss Allen views the situation in this way: The Cobber baseball team is entering its third year under "Although the junior varsity coach Al Rice who lias guided them to winning seasons in his has a height advantage, they two years as manager.

BASKETBALL WRAP UP This year's basketball season ended with a 7-1S record. Randy Taylor, a senior forward from Fairview, Mont., was chosen as the most valuable player. Taylor was the team's second leading scorer with a 13.3 scoring average, hitting for 51% of his shots. The captain for the 1971-72 season is Gary Johnson, a forward from Mcorhead High School. Johnson, an economics major, will be a senior next year. Johnson has a fine record from the past season. He was the third highest scorer for the Cobbers, a position earned by shooting a 44% and averaging 10.6 points for game. and never more flattering The most valuable freshman players were Bruce Kjesbo, a tvhen the pants and tops are ours! center from Moorhead, and Jim Bjorklund, a forward from Fargo.

The Selective Service System is a fact accepted by many people as truly "American.*' However, federal military conscription was foreign to our national experience until 1863 when the nation was locked in the Civil War. Peacetime conscription was never tried by the Federal Government until the days of 1940 when the pros- pect of our involvement in World War II loomed ominously. We have been living with conscription almost continuously for 30 years. Until the present draft, conscription was always regarded as a temporary measure to meet an emergency. Unfortunately, it has become so institutionalized that to many persons it is ac- cepted as a part of life. Those citizens who are subject to the draft have grown to maturity without ever knowing a time when it did not exist. I believe that the Congress should not authorize any extension of authority for the compulsory induction of young men into the armed forces beyond the expiration of the present authority on June 30, 1971. Moreover, I support repeal of the legislation au- thorizing the establishment and maintenance of the Selective Serv- ice System. Soon the United States Senate will be debating "Draft Repeal." The Stennis-Smith Bill No. 427 is to arrive on the Senate floor in a few weeks, possibly the first week in April. It is my conviction that we are urgently called upon to consider the draft in a direct relationship to the war in Indochina. If the Senate ended the President's power to draft men on June 30, 1971, there would be less manpower to wage war in Vietnam. The fact is that America has a professional army now. More than 2.1 million men in the U.S. armed forces, including virtually all officers above the rank of first lieutenant and enlisted men above the rank of sergeant, are already true (not motivated by the draft) volunteers. The draftees have become "cannon fodder." It is the first-term personnel, predominantly drafted and draft-induc- ed, who are dying in Vietnam, not the professionals. Eighty-eight percent of the infantry riflemen in Vietnam in 1969 were draftees and 10% were first-term volunteers. Two percent were career Army men. Without a draft law on the books a president is com- pelled to come to Congress for either the authority to conscript or supplemental appropriations for volunteers, ensuring debate before rather than after commitments are made. I believe that if the We regret to inform you your son was among Stennis-Smith Bill No. 427 is not defeated, Vietnams will continue 1 to grow. the lowest casualty count in recent months I want to encourage all the people in this community to express their feelings on this issue to our Senators (Minn.—Mondale and Humphrey) and to our Representatives.
