Student Government Advising Instructor: PROF. J. DAVID SINGER, Dept. of Political Science PUSHERS BLAMED Drugs plague (Continued from .tPvge 1I At night, downer users began feeling the bad effects of the combination, causing a situation which - in the words of one Drug} Help worker - was "incredibly heavy." At times, the Drug Help tent{ was filled to well over its 12-per- son capacity with people who hadj overdosed - largely on downers. In at least three cases involy- ing downer overdose, persons were rushed to University Hospital in a near-coma state. As Drug Help patients are anonymous the condi- tion of those taken to the hospital remains unknown. Many observers credited the *work of Drug Help and the Psy- chedelic Rangers with keeping things under control. The Rangers combed the crowd; with red-coned flashlights search-; ing for overdose cases and trying to track down dealers. Drug Help volunteers worked through the night tending - to troubled drug users. Concert promoter Peter An- drews had praise for both groups yesterday. "Drug Help was excellent," he said, "and I would say the Rang- ers cut down the drug traffic by at least SO per cent." Police Chief Walter Krasny con- firmed Andrew's judgment calling the concert "well organized and fairly well behaved.", "The Rangers," Krasny said, "tried their best to get people dealing drugs out of circulation in a hurry. You just can't complete- ly control such a large mass of people." The increased use of downers in conjunction with alcohol created special problems for Drug Help workers. "It's more of a medical prob- lem," said Gary Rogow,. (who helped run the Drug Help tent.) ii- .

With downs there's really nothing we can do. If it's bad enough we have to take them to the hospital." Why did the downer problem hit so hard at the blues festival? Theories abound. Rogow lays much of it to what could be termed a "Saturday night psychology." Many people, he said, thought they could take as many drugs as they wanted to because they had all day Sunday tosleep it off. Others place the blame with so- ciety, and the drug companies. "People are so depressed that they just don't care what they do --they just have to get high," one festival worker commented. Ultimately, the blame is most often laid at the feet of the deal- ers , concert organizers had at- tempted to exclude. "That's thecmain problem," a woman who worked the Drug Help tent Saturday and Sunday nights said. "So many people are into making a whole lot of money, and they just don't care what they are doing to other people." Voters back bomnb hikes in Indochina, NEW YORK P)-A Louis Harris poll of voters reported yesterday! that they isupport continued heavy bombing of North Vietnam by a 55-32 per cent margin. The poll also reported a 64-22 per cent margin in favor of min- ing North Vietnamese harbors. A 74-il per cent majority sup- ported President Nixon'sconten- tion that "it is important that, South Vietnam not fall into the! control of the Communists." L d PINBALL ouse unit refuses to abolish KP details WASHINGTON 1-Funds to abolish KP and military cleanup details were rejected by the House Appropriations Committee yester- day, and the Pentagon said the decision would make it harder to create an all-volunteer Army. The committee cut $125 million out of the programs to hire civilians for kitchen work, cigarette butt policing and barracks chores in the Army, Navy and Air Force. Calling such details "wholesome and character-building duties" for GIs, the committee also recommended the civilian programs be terminated by next April 30. Deputy Defense Secretary Kenneth Rush called the committee's comes to Call 764-0558 PACKARD & STATE! TOMMY'S holiday camp LSA grants awards to Four University faculty members were honored yesterday by the literary college. Receiving the college's spdcial awards were: Far Eastern lan- guages and literature Prof. Shuni- chi Kato, the Class of 1923 Award; classical studies Prof. Gerda Selig- son, the Williams Award for Out- standing Teaching in the Humani- ties: Journalism Prof. Paul Jess, the Ruth Sinclair Award in Freshman- Sophomore Counseling; and history Prof. Gerald Linderman, the Ruth Sinclair Memorial Honors Program Award. The Class of '23 Award, which carries a $1,000 stipend, was given Kato for "his lively interest in students and their individual in- tellectual problems and his devel- opment of imaginative teaching methods." The Williams Award, which also has a $1,000 stipend, cited Prof. Seligon's "dedication to her stu- dents, her outstanding example to future teachers." The Sinclair Award in Counseling has a $500 stipend and recognized action regrettable and expressed hope Congress would restore the funds. He said it will make the transi- tion to an ail-volunteer force "much more difficult." "I think we need the maximum attractions to get the type of all- volunteer force that we're after," he said. All three services have already started hiring the civilians as a key part of the drive to make military life more attractive to young men in an effort to achieve President Nixon's goal of an all- volunteer military by next June 30. But the House committee called the programs too costly and said the services started them with no studies to determine their effect on military discipline. It also said the services have no studies to back up their claim that young men consider the chores menial and degrading. "The committee is of the opinion that such duties do not detract from the serviceman's image," it said in a report. "As a matter of fact, the com- mittee believes that these are wholesome and character building duties which enhance a service- man's pride in the services."
