"This Just about pushes the Heating Plant to the limit," said

Val Peterson, assistant or Plant Operations.

director

The plant which provides heat for the campus has had five new

buildings added to its load this year. The Industrial Science, Chemistry, Business, Assembly Center, and parts of the Physical

Peter son said, "this was caused from the power shortage that occurred on Tuesday morning .

Construction postponed Construction of an addition to the plant was to begin this month where the old Annex stood, but cold weather has prevented the construction company from doing any work on it. "Cold temperatures in buildings reported on Tuesday, however, were by no means tram an inadequate heating plant,"

Undetermined Cause Cause or the power shortage has not been determined. During the failure, lights in Old Main, University Center and other buildings were out. "There are two sub -stations providing power for the campus . The one on the East failed," Peterson said. Within ten minutes lights were

back on in many of the areas. In the bookstore , where numerous students were buying books, the lights were off for nearly 45 minutes. Dean Haslem, manager of th e bookstore. said that there are auxiliary lights in the store to help get the students out. "There was confusion when the blackout occurred, but the clerk s had 113shlights and with the cooperation of the students there were no problems," Peterson said . A spokesman from the Plant Operations sa id that this was the third time this week that the power has gone off. He reported that alter fixing the problem they

couldn 't mak e it fall again so they don 't really know the cause. How ever , he gu essed that it would be unlik ely for it to occur aga in soon. Phones Out, Too Val Christens en, director of the University Center, stated that at th e tim e of the power failure he could not call Physical Plant as telephone lines had also been affected . Intensely cold temperatures have magnified the existing heating problems and the power failures , which all add up to further inconveniences for members of the university.

Angela Davis

Lawyers seek new trial site SAN RAFAEL , Calif. (AP) The defense for black militant Angela Davis says it will move to have her trial held away from the Martin County courthouse where four men died in an escape attempt she is accused of helping to plot . Howard Moore Jr. of Atlanta, head of the five-lawyer defense team handling the former UCLA philosophy instructor's case , said Tuesday in an interview that he will try to have the trial held either across the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco or in Los Angeles. During the one-hour court session, Miss Davis, an avowed Communist, read a prepared statement declaring she is innocent and the target of "a political frameup ." Declares publicly

She said, "I want to declar e publicly before the court and the people or this country that I am innocent of all charges brought 01 th sta by e te

D e puty Atty. G e n . Albert Harris , the prosecutor, protested. Judge Wilson consented but warned Miss Davis not to give a speech. He also told her that this was not the time to make a formal plea. Brotsky made motions for bail and for dismissing the grand jury indictments on grounds of insufficient evidence, improper makeup of the grand jury and extensive pretrial publicity . Judge Wilson g~ive the defens e until Feb. 5 to file motions and supporting material and gave the state until Feb . 22 to reply. Outside Judge requested He said he would ask the chief

Miss Davis , clad in a navy blue miniskirt and matching blouse and with her hair in Afro style, sat across the room in the jury box with her five attorneys.

In he r statement, Miss Davis sa id that if she could not act as cocounsel, the court "wi ll be alig ning itself with forces of racism and reaction that thr eate n to push this country to the brink of fascism ." "If I am to be granted a fair trial, of which I am at present extremely doubtful , it is imperative that I be given the right of cocounsel," she said.

Miss Davis is charged with furnishing four guns used in the escape attempt last Aug. 7 in which a judge , two convicts and a youth who brought weapons into court were killed.

Has five attorneys

justic e of the state Supreme Court to appoint an outside judge to hear arguments and rule on the motions, probably sometime early in March. Judge Wilson and all other Marin County judg es have disqualified themselves from taking the trial itself because ot friendship with Judge Harold J. Haley, who died in the shootout.

Reporting : Julie Washburn 'Life Writer In order to take advantage of the Pass D-F option, students must file car ds within first three weeks of this quarter. Pass-fail cards are to be picked up in Main 106.

As she entered the heavily guarded courtroom, she smiled and raised a clenched fist in a Black Power salute. Some of the 67 spectators in the modern windowless courtoom shouted: "Right on!"

Pass 0-F applies to all courses other than those in major fields or in lower division requirement classes. One class per quarter ma y be taken on the pass-D-F option. However, students of sophomore standing and above may take required P.E . on pass-D-F, plus another class on the same basis .

Her chief counsel or record for pretrial proceedings , Allan Brotsky of San Francisco, told the judge that Miss Davis wanted to be her own counsel. He then a1ked permission for her to read her statement.

Few Take Advantage During previous quarters , few students have taken advantage of the pass D-F option. Only 60 students registered for it during fall quarter . Academic Council urged ROTC

students to take advantage of this option in response to the bill passed by the Executive Council last qu arte r . In review, the bill states that "the ROTC department issue letter grades to its students but that these grades be recorded on the student's transcripts as either pass of fail, thus not affecting their grade-point average." Option to Aid Students Pass D-F option is intended to aid students whose gradepoint averages could be harmed by classes not relevant to their major . To be eligible for pass-0-F a stude nt must have a full-time standi n g (12 credit hours minimum). Graduate students taking classes numbered below 200 that are not included in the graduate course requirements may take these on this option also, with the approval of the graduate committee or their major professor .

PLANT REACHES LIMIT - Construction of an addition to the old boiler plant to help share the power of the expanding university are planned to begin as soon as weather permits.

Poem tells Canadian woes

Tale of

two years

,. •·

In four years and one more major election we will have reached a point in time that will be 200 ·years beyond another pgint in time. This first point in time, 1776,was the t{rs.t American Evolutiont\evolljtion, an event ·important . historically to · every J)resent day -American citizen . The second J;>Oint in time, 1976, is loommg as no less an event, and rrh,ips, ill terms of al humanity , even more of one. · In 1776 , there we1e certain "forces in crisis " that stimulated individuals and groups living then, and caused them to mak e some decisi ve decisions and take the historical actions which we now relate to as American history. Individuals or groups of indi vidual s , by them selves, cannot bring about the situations that make possible the creation of history; it is the "forces in crisis" that bring about the situations . Had Tom Paine and the others been born 20years sooner, there · woutd not have been a revolution in 1756, but rather dtffei'ent names would h,ive been recorded in the history books. Once the situation has come about, however, itis , I believe, people that make the history which flows out of the situation. It is not the situation itself, but how it is used, whether for good (human) purposes or bad (selfish) purposes, and it is the actions of everyday people that ultimately determine the outcome. If large numbers of people do act, the outcome will be human; if they don't it is certain that the selfish few will act (and always in their ow_n self interest ). In America today there

are a number of "forces in crisis " that are in various stages of development and intensity and they are bringing about a general situation out of which will flow the creation of important history. These "forces in crisi_s," I would define as, social, spiritual, economic, and apparently for the first time ecological. These four farj!e scale forces are responsible for the current "invigoration" that we see going on in America and the other countries of the world. . It is not some "outside agitators" or simply "permissiveness· " rather it is the "feeling' 1by many people of the intrusion into their personal lives of the above "forces ;" i.e . polluted air and water , infla tion a nd recession (perh a ps depr ession soon?) drug add iction among the young, racism , etc. They are forces which involve and affect large numbers of people, and bring all mankind to a confrontation with these forces that have become out of lialance. · There are now in America people standing and speaking , offering programs and directions which they believe to be the best. As the crises continue to intensify, there will be more people standing with alternate and different programs. Among them will be Republicans, Democrats, several varieties of socialists, communists, radical of all sorts , John Birchers , Fascis ts , and others. They will be speaking to "we the people" because America has a foundation of Democracy, and the final validation of any " social truth " in a

democracy lies with the people. That which the .people collectively decide upon is what they must feel is best for them as human beings.

I received a Christmas greeting from a close friends in Canada. The greeting showed much happiness with the exception of one bit of sorrow, The sorrow pertained to the Quebec crisis which has been occuring recently in Canada. His feelings were conveyed to me through a poem which he had written . May I share it with you and fellow Canadians of this school: FORCANADA

The cause? It could be 'benign neglect' by the administration Considering the status of the library is like looking over the life of a born loser. The architect who designed the library seems to have struck the first blow when he came up with the box-like structure. But perhaps the most crippling blow the library has received has come from the university administration. The library has been continuously underfunded since 1961 as compared to other intermountain universities. The chart depicted above shows the library budgets for 1961 and 1964 released by the department of Health, Education and Welfare and recently published by the AAUP (American Association of University Professors) on campus in a library position report. HEW has not yet released an updated version of the chart. It is admitted that the chart is old and can serve now only to dramatize the situation. But the library's financial position is no better now, if not worse off.

Inf act, a cut-back in funds for the library in fall quarter has forced the library to curtail its hours on Fridays . Dr. Milton Abrams, library director, indicated that the library h~s already exhausted this year's appropriation set aside for buying new books and has held over faculty requests for books for consideration next year. USU has concentrated the last five or six years on exv.anding in the physical sense. FAC, Business building, football stadium and assembly c~nter at~st ~o this .

terviewer, "but what kind of approach is that to God?" "I can't talk too much about God here," he said. "I can't use God in the same context as most other people; I can't use Jesus Christ in the same context as traditional churches. Not only would the people not hear it here; from all indications they would be totally unresponsive to it ... they'd slay me. "I say God, but I say it like this: 'Oh, my God! ... most people read, 'and God said ... 'I don't have to read it. My God comes from in here. Young people are tired of reading about God. The cats I know on the street say 'Jesus Christ!' every day. "Christ, man, what's wrong'." Pious references to God and the 'man upstairs' are "a lot of baloney," Williams said. Williams is a graduate of Houston-Tillotson College in Austin, Tex., and Perkins School of Theology at Southern Methodist University in Dallas. He was born in San Angelo, Tex. "I came up with much of that old theology," he said. "It was the thing that made me docile, irresponsible; it made me unresponsive to people. It made me want to get through the world as fast as I could go so I could get to that next one. "Baby, I ain't thinking about that next one.

Making topical meaningful by Mary Campbell AP Writer Today, some of the songwriters, like Joni Mitchell and James Taylor, are writing about their inner worlds and some fewer of the ones we hear a lot about - are writing about topical subjects. . . . . One difficulty with bemg topical 1s being individualistic enough to be arresting while writing about subJects that all the topical people are usmg and making those subjects seem newly meaningful. All this is to lead to saying that there is a debut record album out by a young man named Don McLean who has written and sung topical songs which do all the right, meaningful things. The album is titled "Tapestry," and it's on the Mediarts label. McLean was on the first voyage of the Clearwater, the Hudson River sloop, with Pete Seeger, and hi_salbum is dedicated to the Weavers. His mus1c1 doesn't sound like Weavers-era folk, though it may be back - grounded in that. It is contemporary and concerned strongly with ecology, the concern which the Clearwater also dramatizes. The title song is a plea for people not to unravel the world by messing up the balances. It begins, "Every thread of creation is held in-position by still other strands of things living." The song we like best is "Three Flights Up," ' a story about a friend in

Snow five collides with 6-1 Ramblers It ' ll be a reun ion of sorts tomorrow night when a stro ng Snow Junior College quintet takes on the USU ramblers in the 5:45 preliminary game. Coach Dutch

Belnap's

Ram-

blers are sporting a 6-1 record presently but will be facing their toughest foe at home to date. Snow 's guard tandem of Lee Holmstead and Larry Farnes both hail from Logan High School, where they were teammates of Aggie star Robert Lauriski and frosh guard Kent Baugh .

Holmstead is averag ing over 15 points per game and Farnes is the

offensive

leader

and

top

defensive performer . But Belnap's cagers have three outstanding stars in 6-8 Jim Boatwright (20.7), swi ngman Glen Hansen (21.0) a nd sharpshooter Gary Ericksen (18.9). Back to bolster the Rambler bench is Dan Palley (6-2 guard) and Rex McKee (6-8 cente r) both of whom had been iniured. Other probable stariers include 6-8center Dan Dressen and guard Dale Allred, with Jack Peck and Neal Mathews providing the top bench help . Peck has been outstanding in reserve roles so far. Th e following Tuesday, USU will travel to Cedar City to play College of Southern Utah.

Greg Hansen Sports Editor If there has been any team that has been a nuisance to the Utah State basketball program in the past five years, Denver's Pioneers would be certain to gel mention. Th e 4-7 Denver team, a rejuvenated squad si nc e 5-10 guard Horace Kearny re-joined the squad, have won four of the last 11 games they've played against USU--one of them coming last year. The Pioneers engineered one of those traditional upsets over U State, 78-72 in Denver--just ten days after losing a 104-77 slaughter in Logan. However, Denver has lost show-ma king coach Stan Albeck since then (to the ABA Denver Rockets) but are nonetheless a talented crew. Further proof of the Denver performances agai n st strong Utah State teams goes back to 1967. The NIT-bound Aggies were among the top 12 teams in the country and had to go to the wire (with seven seconds left) to win 82-81 on a Lucky Smith basket . A year later the · Pioneers scalped the Aggies 100-80 and if history has any bearing on tomorrow's outcome, this historic c la sh sho ul d be something to see. Roberts Returns Leading scorer and rebounder Marvin Roberts in back with the Aggies after missing the AllCollege tournament and will start at one forward position . The 6-8 Brooklyn Bomber looked especially sharp in his first workout Tuesday night and takes a 23.0 scoring average-- along with 15.2 rebounds per game-into the tilt. Lafayette Love, arrivi ng on campus late as he cou ld not get a flight out of snow-bo und Chicago, will be at th e pivot aga inst Den ve r's rugged Dave Bustion . Bustion is the younger--but not smaller--brother of former Colorado State strong- man Sonny Bustion and Aggie fans can well remember the muscl e used to good advantage by the one-time C~U performer. ' oi 1ing Bustion will be talented 6-5 f ,rward Willie Cherry-- a high-scoring cornerman. Cherry is a one year lett erman who had a lot to do with the upset or USU last winter. Love Impressive Love, averaging 14.6 per game. has developed into one of the best sophom ore ce nters in the country and is one racet of USU's fivesome th at a ppear s so lid . Reserve Walt er Bees, also late arriving because of weather conditions in New York City. has not played in the la st three games but showed signs of much im provement agai nst Fresno State during the holidays.

Nate Williams, scoring 17.7 points per game, and Robert Lauriski, 13.2 , will be in the starting lineup--two of USU's big guns in the Oklahoma City title march. Jeff Tebbs will be running the offense from the point position after his outstanding holiday showing. Says coach Andersen "We've needed a take-charge guy. Tebbs proved to his teammates and to the coaches that he can do the job ... certainly he has more self confidence now.''

Reporting:

from the

Brent Hislop Asst. SID, usu Two years ago, Utah State's newly appointed wrestling coach, Bob Carlson, had a rather Idealistic goal. When Athletic Director Frank ueuss" Williams appointed Carlson to the job, he imâ&#x20AC;˘ mediately set out to improve the program. And it was a nice gesture beeause the program was in bad shape.

But as Carlson expected, and soon found out, it wasn't going to be easy. He had his problems at Rrst, and he still has. And he knows they will continue. "When I was on the Aggie wrestling team," smiles Carlson, "guys just sort of came to practice when they felt like it . There were a few real dedicated athletes, but mostly our teams were comprised of guys that really didn't care one way or another for wrestling." But that is past history now at Agglevllle. This year's depth sees an average of three deep in every weight class. And, as Carlson puts it, if they aren't there to put out, they are out, period. The roster is filled with state champs with some impressive career records, in spite of the fact that U-State can not yet afford to offer a wrestler a full grant-inaid. Coleman Leads
