By HARVEY WASSERMAN
Editorial Director
Surfing is a beautiful sport. You
paddle straining, your shoulders
like no other sport strains them
for 15 to 20 minutes on a good
beach just to catch one ride, and
then you turn around and do the
same thing again. Surfing must
be the hardest of all sports to
learn because if you're only aver-
age you've. got to kill, yourself for
a week or two before you're good
,nough to have any fun at it.
But once you learn, it's magnifi-
cent. The sea, the sand, the sun'
are all a part of it, but it's the
ride, the fast, ,smooth, exhilarat-
ing naturalness of becoming the
master of a wave that makes surf-
ing a totally unforgettable exper-
ience.
Bruce Brown's "Endless Sum-
mer" therefore has the advantage
of working with great subject mat-
ter, and the film does it justice.
The story line is simple. A cou-
ple of surfers from California de-
cide, with the onset of winter,
to follow summer around the
world, surfing wherever they go.
Brown narrates their journey with
all the simple, easy-going humor
one finds on the beach. The film
is like a home movie; warm, sim-
ple, often banal but never mean-
ing to be more. It is meant to
show a wide variety of surfing
surroundings and to include pic-
tures of the sport in its most ex-
citing moments-and that it does.
Brown's cameral work is good,
but not great. At one point, where
it is obviously bad, one is remind-
ed that this is not a Hollywood
film or a canned Madison Avenue
product-it is the work of a surf-
er going around the world photo-
graphing surfing and talking about
it like a surfer.
Surfing could probably use a
great poet. To watch it at its
best is no less than thrilling; to
participate in it is like a dream
of power and the sea. Brown is
not a poet; nor is he in the nor-
mal run of commercial filmmak-
ers.
And that, perhaps, is one of the
most refreshing qualities of the

film as a film--it seems to have Everything is relaxed and easy
been made because there is a like the sport, and under those
sport like surfing, not because conditions one hardly has to strain
there is an audience to buy a mo- to believe that three guys would
vie. There is no drama, there is go around the world just for the
no poverty, there is no pressure, love of surfing.
Student Leaders, Rusk
To Meet in Washington

(Continued from Page 1)
-The bombing of North Viet-
nam, which has apparently not
halted infiltration from the north
and south as it was designed to.
would have to be justified.,
-Rusk would have to explain
"what the U.S. wants to get out
of Vietnam, whether we would be
willing to negotiate with the Viet
Cong, and whether we would per-
mit a coalition or all-Communist
government in South Vietnam if
that's what the people there vote
for."
Robinson said he is also seek-
ing evidence that the Viet Cong
are closely tied to the North Viet-
namese. Several reports, includ-
ing those by New York Times
assistant managing editor Harris-
on Salisbury and Miami News edi-
tor William Baggs, have contended
that the Viet Cong is an inde-
pendent entity, although it gets
support from Hanoi. Both Salis-
bury and Baggs have spent time
in North Vietnam this month.

As for his own position, Rob-
inson said "I have pretty firm
convictions that the war is wrong
on the basis of reports I've seen,
including government reports."
He admitted that his position
"is not necessarily that of the ma-
jority of people on the campus,
but the more I can learn about
the war, the more information
may be available to them through
me.
"I don't claim to be speaking
for everyone," Robinson empha-
sized. "But since I was elected,
people must have had some kind
of faith in my ability to under-
stand issues and communicate
them."
He also contended that "some
people have tacitly accepted the
war because of lack of knowledge
about it."
Robinson summed up his pur-
pose in attending the meeting
with Rusk as "a means to gain
additional information about the
war so as to help communicate
this information to students on the
campus."

State Police were manning road
blocks on I-94 turning back motor-
ists heading east from Paw Paw.
. Both 1-94 and 1-96 were closed
leading into Benton Harbor, which
reported all hotels and motels
filled by stranded motorists.
"It's incredible," was State Po-
lice Cpl. James Jeffreys' descrip-
tion of storm conditions around
Battle Creek, where it was er-
roneously reported for a time a
woman in labor was on Interstate
94, the main eastwest artery in
Southern Michigan.
FaIse Alarm
The woman's truck-driver hus-
band finally made it into Battle

Creek behind snow plows. The Red
Cross found them lodging in a
private home. The woman was
only four monts pregnant.
In paralyzed Lansing, Mayor
Max Murningham appealed to
everyone to "stay home unless
you are employed in an essential
business or industry."
Detroit Greyhound bus head-
quarters reported it was attempt-
ing to send no buses west or north,
although schedules were being
operated to the south and east,
although most of them would be
far off schedule before reaching
their destinations.
Detroit Metropolitan Airport was
reopenend to traffic at 8:30 a.m.
after having been closed all night.
