Crisis to Crisis . . . "South Viet Nam" is the topic of the second four-part film series to be present to the student body. Ambush to ambush, crisis to crisis, South Viet Nam is seemingly an endless circle. The lecture provides an on-thescene observation by Kenneth Armstrong, who gives a keen insight of the people, the leaders, history, religion and customs of this highly publized country in crisis. Admission is free to students with ID cards and will be presented in Holy Name of Jesus auditorium Nov. 13 at 8 p.m. Plea From Viet Nam For the past three years, I was an assistant professor of military science at Loyola university. This military assignment was pleasant, since New Orleans is my home. I graduated from St. Aloysius in 1952 and Loyola in 1956. In September, like you, I was experiencing the terror and aftermath of Hurricane Betsy. The | destruction of property and plight of her victims I at that time seemed incomprehensible. I was f thankful I did not have to care for their needs. I Today, lam faced with a new kind of terror, with new victims, whose plight is even more difficult to comprehend. However, the greatest difference to me, is that now I must care for their needs. As the senior of five Americans, I am counter- I part of the District Chief, in the District of Due | Pho, Viet Nam. Together, we are responsible for I the lives of about 100,000 people in an area the I size of East Jefferson. We will never see most of ■ the area or the people, because they are con- I trolled by the Viet Cong. In our "barbed wire 1 island," three square miles in size, live some I 10,000 persons. Many are refugees from the VC, 1 or survivors of their victims. THE MILITARY SITUATION is one for which I I am prepared, as I am a professional soldier. I But the role of civil administrator to 10,000 I frightened homeless refugees is a new challenge 1 for me. Their needs are so similar, yet are so much greater in magnitude to the needs of the \ hurricane refugees. I can accomplish a great deal with the aid of materials supplied by the U. S. Agency for International Development through \ USOM. I have given the children dry milk, and I soon hope to build a school. I am also distributing basic medical supplies. There are two serious needs I cannot fill in the near future. One is clothing for the children. Many infants are naked; youths usually have a shirt and pants. Shoes are unnecessary in this tropical climate thus they are unknown. The other need is for soap. A local supply is \ non-existent. Bathing is done in the rain, from contaminated wells, or stagnant pools. The use [ of soap could prevent countless boils, infections | and abscesses on these unfortunate children. To fill these needs, I plan to appeal to my friends in the New Orleans area. My goal is 10,000 bars of soap and 10,000 sets of used child- I ren's clothing. I am seeking individual gifts, as small as one bar of soap. MONETARY GIFTS, although not specifically I sought, will be well spent. My first appeal went to my parish of St. Lawrence the Martyr. They obviously cannot fill my goal, so I am appealing to the readers of the Maroon. Specifically, this is what I ask: Please mail me one bar of soap and one set of children's clothes to: Capt. Ronald F. Rod, 074469 Advisory Team No. 2 APO San Francisco 96260 Gifts mailed to me now, will arrive in time for Christmas. I hope you can find space in your paper to publish my appeal. I Thank you, Ronald E. Rod Thirty-six Candidates Sign For Freshman Elections Thirty-six candidates, representing Loy o 1 a's three undergraduate colleges, have registered for freshman elections to be held Nov. 15 and 16.
