Page Six THE MICHIGAN DAILY Tuesday, May 27, 1969 rage Six THE MICHIGAN DAILY Tuesday, May 27, 1969 The Texas Wedge Flashbac .. . ...;November 5, 1968 By DREW BOGEMA November 5th was the day I voted for Hubert Humphrey. It was also the day I voted for the continued existence of Detroit, Lawrence Welk, the Ann Arbor News, and WJBK-TV in "Lunch-Box City" as opposed to barricades, street violence, a radical transformation of the existing order, and the institution of a new and exciting brand of politics. My friends expect me to apologize whenever mention is made of my decision last November. Many of my friends con- sider themselves radicals, which by all means they should. They should continue to oppose mass murder in Vietnam, the cen-. tralization of power in the United States, the existing customs and conventions of a sterile social existence, and the proliferation of irrelevance by capitalistic agents. However, all I have to say about November 5th is this: One should never vote on an empty stomach. I was walking down Wells Street toward Burns Park School when sharp and intense hunger pains began striking the walls of my stomach. I quickly recalled that it had been close to seven- teen hours since I had last stuffed food into my body politic. AT THE TIME I was wavering between voting for Cleaver in a mood of hostile, righteous, indignation, or, voting for Humphrey, humbly announcing that the Republic was one- hundred-and-ninety-two years old .and two hundred million strong, and who was I to cast judgment? The startling lack of fuel added a disruptive element to my calculations, and prevented a sound and intelligent approach to the problem. To my mind, political scientists and those con- gerned with the nature of the political animal have devoted entirely too much attention to the long-range factors that play an influence upon how a person votes. The culinary aspects of my own political ethic were strongly pushing me in a direction I had vowed not to go. AS I MOVED past the campaign workers stationed outside the school, the choice seemed definitely to be Cleaver. Although for the last week, I had oriented my mind toward the plea set forth by . the desperate Democrats, that the absolute priority was to prevent Nixon from gaining power, the pains were too great; dissension within my intestinal tract was pushing me to- ward radicalism in politics. Or perhaps it was merely the gleam in the eye of the middle-aged Harvey volunteer, not the digestive aspects, that propelled me to Peace and Freedom. Forget the violent aspects of Cleaer and the Panthers, my stomach told me. Evil politicians like Humphrey who ignore tear gas and Mace for acceptance speeches, who can embrace the corpse of Lyndon Johnson placing their reservations upon the shrine of liberalism, who can't respond to massive public de- mands for revision of policy, who can't change their convictions in the middle of the stream, ain't fit to be politicos or Presidents. This mood of hostility was only reinforced as I entered the school. A long table replete with the diverse varieties of Girl Scout cookies and other refreshments had been positioned near the door. Be firm, came the directions from my ramshackle mental control center. Don't be pushed into voting for Humphrey simply because the pols have waylaid your path with alluring delights to sway you into mainstream channels. It was reminiscient of the Nixon line that implored angry students to come back into the American middle. "Hell no, I won't go," I brusquely chanted (to a surprised matron) and moved to the end of the corridor where thirty or so clustered, anxiously waiting to cast their ballots. THE THIRTY or so were connected to another seventy who waited patiently inside the gymnasium. The great majority, my stomach told me, seemed to be elderly or professional middle- class thralls who had taken the day off to engage in the great American game. And they were excited too, for toes tapped, shoulders rustled, and pairs of eyes rapidly swung around the gym. Immediately ahead of me in line was a boy clad in a red- plaid corduroy jacket and as we watched our slow movement toward the tables inside, a conversation was struck. After both of us tossed out pieces of rhetoric conerning the utility of the American political system, I asked him of his intentions. "For Humphrey . . . anything to keep that bastard from 'power," he replied. The strength of the Cleaver mood, however, was slipping as I lit up a cigarette, which served to temporarily suppress my appetite. The Nixon-Agnew ticket would spell doom to any chance of an early conclusion of hostilities in Vietnam. Racial separation and inequality would be furthered, not retarded. Faced with growing threats to domestic tranquility by the mili- tancy of the ghetto and the campus, Richard Nixon would adopt aspects, if not -the entire barrel, of the Wallace program. A VOTE for Humphrey would put a man into office with the toleration and restraint to stem the flow of reactionary move- ment within America, and re-direct youthful energy toward meaningful reform, a change of sterile life-styles, and an end to the dehumanization of modern, industrial life. A vote for Cleaver would be valuable in insuring that Peace and Freedom would meet the 13,000-vote requirement. However, it would be much more meaningful if Milhouse and Spiro T. were kept away from the levers of power. Cleaver was as ass, I told myself. The authoritarian aspects of his personality and program gave him a Stalin-like appear- ance. Why hadn't the Gregory caucus at the Peace and Free- dom convention won out, so that the choice between violence and stultification could be deferred? I lit another Winston (products of scab labor, I was told) and my appetite again was suppressed. After all, wasn't Hum- phrey the man who had told the Dixiecrats to go to hell in 1948? Wasn't this the man whom I prayed for to win in West Virgina and Wisconsin in 1960? The old Humphrey and the new Humphrey were one and the same. He had been forced to coalesce with the decisions of the Johnson Administration because of his deep and underlying faith in the American ethic. (Voice from below: "Wasn't this the man who conspired with Boss Daley to put an end to popular participation at Chicago?) MY REFLECTIONS were once again diverted by a League of Women Voter type who steered me into the voting machine. Here I was at the brink of decision. Passively, I allowed my mind to reflect the strongest mental force, and, consequently lit an- other cigarette. The decision had been made. Stomach said no more. I quickly pulled the lever for Humphrey and the legion of local radicals and walked dejectedly out of the building. I had sold out. I had voted for compromise, accommodation, 2M' nine takes two from Iowa; 1.010000=% M-4 ERE Finishes campaign tied for fifth By JOHN GLAUSER the sacks, and Jim Hosler then le by John Arvai were the b i g It was a case of too little too' came through with a timely sin- blows of the inning.

The agreement is for three years. Announcement was made by Roone Arledge, president of ABC Sports, and Pete Rozelle, pro football commissioner. The amount of money involved in the agreement was not an- nounced. This is the first contract with a professional sports league for a regular series during prime televi- sion time. The telecasts of the Monday games will start at 8:30 or 9 p.m., EDT. The weekly series will start on the first Monday night of the regular season in 1970 and end on the Monday night before the last weekend of the regular season. Rozelle emphasized that the contract covers only 13 regular season games annually. Contracts covering the remaining 169 regu- lar season games of the 26 pro teams in the newly realigned league will be negotiated later, Rozelle said. The commissioner added that income from all television will be shared equally by the 26 teams. It was speculated that Rozelle would announce the complete tele- vision-money package after he meets with NBC and CBS officials to negotiate the remaining Sunday package. Current contracts with the two networks expire after the 1969 season. CBS now covers the National Football League, and NBC tele- casts the American League games. rrid contests It is estimated that the NFL will receive $20 million for the television rights from CBS in 1969 in addition to another $2 mi- lion for the championship game. CBS will also show the Super Bowl this year under an alter- nating policy with NBC for which the NFL will receive an additional $2.5 million- The AFL is in the last year of a year-year $38 million package with NBC, which includes the championship game.

The world middleweight 'cham- pion said he hurt his hand with a high punch to the head in the first round. "It was a terrible pain," he said. "From then on I MAJOR LEAGUE STANDINGS ...E.... .. .. .. . . . .. was practically a one-handed fighter." Dr. Edwin Campbell of the New York State Athletic Commission said Nino suffered a complete break of the metacarpal bone be- hind the right index finger and would not be able to train for at least eight weeks. Benvenuti went to the Poly- clinic Hospital after appearing at a news conference, displaying his swollen hand. Tiger, a 39-year-old happy guy from Biafra, fought with the des- peration of man groping for a last chance. The victory reinstated Tiger as a leading contender for the light heavy crown he lost last year to Bob Foster. Tiger cut Benvenuti around the left eye in a close quarters in the seventh round and referee Tony Perez cautioned them as they broke. In the last round Tiger was warned to keep his punches up. Referee Perez scored it 7-2-1, Judge Joe Armstrong 6-4 and Judge Al Berl 6-3-1, all for Tiger. The Associated Press card was 7-3 for Tiger who went into the ring a 12-5 underdog.
