Thursday, January 23, 1975 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Page Seven .. . . _ Reporter speaks (Continued from Page 1) fane-when describing the is- sues to The Daily staff. Hersh designated all of his commentst at The Daily offices as "uncate- ~gorically off the record." z Hersh's address at Rackham centered on no single theme. He drew largely from his broad ex- perience in governmental and reporting circles to entertain his audience with brief 'anecdotes and observations abort various issues' and personalities, such as: -The CIA's alleged campaign of 'domestic spying. "I think we're just beginning to scratch the surface on what the CIA did. I really don't know why the, CIA thought they could get away with spying on the Ameri- can people." -Seymour Hersh. "T h e s e aiestions (which he fielded from the audience) make me seem like I'm doing something heroic. I'm not. God damn it, I don't solve anything. The question is, why aren't there more people doing it, (exploring governmen- tal secret operations)." -The alleged CIA involvement in the overthrow of the Marxist government in Chile. "My hunch is that we may not have bad planes bombing the palace, but we sure bad a much bigger role than anybody has shown." -The New York Times.

"The press really blew the story except for a couple of police re- porters named Woodward and Bernstein. The lesson seems to be that it's not a good idea to elect a sociopath to high office." --Lieutenant William Calley and the My Lai massacre. "The American people came to the point where they had made a moral judgement. Calley be- came rather likeable. And to and behold, one day a group of his peers found him guilty of mass murder.

The position taken by Flem- ing and Kennedy-that a decis- ion is yet to come-appears to fly in the face of the Regents' vote last week. Edward Dough- erty, Rhodes' assistant, stated Monday that final authority in the appointment rests with the Regents. Meanwhile, speculation and dissatisfaction with the decision continued to build in LSA. One reliable source said the Cobb appointment has ignited power- ful support for Frye among many faculty members. Several members have sent letters of protest to Fleming.
