Art Tung and Greg Hopkins have even taken to sitting—from time to time—at tables in what Andy Mol- lison calls "the nonconformists* sec­ tor of the Union grill." Golly gee, somethin's happenin' and you don't know what it is, Do you, Mr. Jones? It all began in the middle of last term when ASMSU took a stand sup­ porting US in its pitched battle against academic degeneracy. When Jim Sink announced—at a rather large nightly mass convocation—that he just might be willing to get himself busted, it seemed, for one, golden moment, that MSU might develop a student govern­ ment with some kind of balls. After all, it happened at Berkeley and Ann Arbor. Why not MSU? Those of us who, at the time, remained skeptical about Jim Gra­ ham's dedication to the radical move­ ment were told to cool it, baby: "They showed up, didn't they?" Well, yes; in fact, Art Tung, an off-again, on-again small-d democrat, showed up at the term's first US meeting last Thursday night in the Union and won friends for his own peculiar brand of coalition. He took the floor after a particu­ larly-, boring and routine - sounding business meeting during which, among other things: Jim Friel announced that Spartan Wives "are kind of hot for the idea" of the boycott; an un­ identified straight-booking cat volun­ teered the information that a new dorm open house policy is being formulated requiring male students to keep their doors opei* "forty-five degrees if you got a girl in the room"; Steve "Frodo" Hickson threatened people who didn't purchase United Students buttons with a promise that they would never "make it out the door sardonically.

The convocation is sponsored by several local church groups and peace organi­ zations, and is open to the public (each meeting $1—students free). The first two sessions have already been held; the last three will be held on Jan. 22 and 29, and Feb. 5, all at 8 p.m. in the Social Hall of St. John's Catholic Student Center in East Lansing. Speakers for the last three ses­ sions include Col. Arthur Holmes, Ronald Young, Neil Staebler, Walter Adams, Gordon Zahn, Rev. Truman Morrison, and Rabbi Philip Frankel. The Editors
