              Fresno relays lures
fop distance runners
One of the finest contingents
in the West Coast Relays history
will ran the mile In the Inter¬
collegiate division and It could
be the second sub-four minute
four-lapper In the WCR.
John Landy, the Australian ace,
toured the mile In 3:59.1 back In
1956 and that Is the only sub-
four minute mile that has been
run In Ratcliffe Stadium.
""* For next week's extravaganza
(the mile will be run on Satur¬
day, May 10), the prospects for
lowering that Relays standard
are good with a field headed
by Vlllanova's Dave Patrick
and former UCLA star Bob
Day.
Patrick, who Is now a grad¬
uate     student at Vlllanova, ran
, the fifth fastest mile In the world
last year (3:56.8).
_      Day  is in  the Army at Fort
- McArthur and last year chalk¬
ed up a 3:59.6 in the four-
lapper although he concentrated
on the longer distances. His
ail time best is 3:56.4
Two other entries capable of
cracking the four-minute barrier
are Olympic half-mller Wade
Bell of Oregon, who ran 4:01
last year, and has a best of
3:59.8 and veteran John Lawson
with a best of 4:00.6.
WCR Director Dutch Warm-
erdam said there will be a col¬
lege runner or two in the mile
event, among them Tim Daniel-
son of San Diego State who ran
I  3:59.4  as   a high schooler In
1966.
Other possibilities are Chuck
LaBenz of Arizona State who has
a best ' of 4:02.6, and George
Scott, an Australian who compet¬
ed at New Mexico University,
who ran a 4:02.7 last year.
The field for the two-mile
In the 43rd annual event Is also
indicative    of   record-breaking
\ Heading the list is little Gerry
Llndgren of Washington state
who Is a post-graduate compet¬
itor. Llndgren had a best of
8:38.4 last year.
Pushing the diminutive Wash¬
ington runner will be Olympic
runner      Tom  Von  Ruden  who

ROTC program
By Mike Eberleln
The School of Professional Studies was requested to make a spe¬
cial study on the Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps, which
hopefully will serve as a guide for future policy making on the pro¬
gram by the Academic Policy and Planning Commltteeyesterday.
The APP took the action after receiving a letter from the American
Civil Liberties,Union, and witnessing campus protests across the
nation, aimed at removing ROTC from college campuses.
The request asked Dean Horace Schorllng of Professional Studies
to evaluate the military program at Fresno State College and report
back to APP. Schorllng said that he would try to have the report,
or at least a progress report, before the end of this semester.
Few questions were raised during yesterday's meeting on the
philosophical virtues ot the program, although three students ap¬
peared and cited the fact that the program Is training people to kill
to the continuance of war.

EOP breaks poverty cycle

tunities Program?   What has lt

reality  at Fresno State College
The purpose of the EOP pro¬
gram Is to give low-Income stu-
s an equal opportunity to at¬
tend college. The EOP Is not as-
offlce. EOP brings the services
available at FSC to the student.
Instead of the student having to
seek help on his own.
•An education Is the founda¬
tion for breaking the poverty
cycle.    A  means of making an
education a reality for this seg¬
ment of (depopulation Is very nec¬
essary for the future realization
of vthe goal of equality," said
Thomas M. Brlgham, dean of the
School of Social Welfare.
A beginning towards this end is
long overdue. EOP has been suc¬
cessful on campuses throughout
the nation (sometimes with titles
other than EOP) and was official¬
ly begun at FSC In the spring of
1968. Last fall, 76 students
were admitted to FSC under the
provisions of the EOP. Today 75
of those students are still en¬
rolled and all but ten have met the
scholastic requirements FSC
established for all Its students.
FSC's EOP Director Kath¬
arine panas said, 'Awarenesson
the part of many teachers and stu¬
dents has led to the realiza¬
tion that many more students
could benefit from the program
and this realization has made the
present EOP enrollment look
like tokenism."
EOP emphasizes academic
survival of Its students by means
of counseling, academic support,
financial support (available by
means ol educational opportunity
grants, work study and national
defense student loans through the
financial aids office), health ser¬
vices, and psychological support.
Who qualifies for EOP? The
program was set up for low in¬
come or minority group students
In need of financial aid to fur¬
ther their education. The stu¬
dents   must come from a home
(Continued on Page 2, Col. 5)
The   i
was passed after bitter discus¬
sion on the merits of allowing
students to continue their studies
without any personal counseling,
which might have helped them
solve the problems which led to
the low scholastic average.
The motion as passed stated:
Upper division students (60 units
or over) disqualified during the
Fall semester be automatically
reinstated during the subsequent
Spring semester.
All other students dlqualifled
for lack of grade points must
present their case for readmts-
slon to the admissions counseling
department,
It was noted that about half of
the students disqualified do not
seek readmlsslon Immediately.
During the Fall 1968 semester,
517 students were disqualified at
FSC or 4.70 per cent of the stu¬
dent body. The figure has been
dropping over the years, espe¬
cially since the beginning of high¬
er admission standards for en¬
tering freshmen.
Mike Cole is
named editor
of Backwash
Michael J. Cole, a junior Eng¬
lish major, was selected editor
of Backwash by the Fresno Stole
College Senate Board on Pub¬
lications.
In his proposed policy Cole
stated that the magazine has
been an effective vehicle for
student creations but has suffer¬
ed from lack of publicity.   '
•Production before finals and
more extended advertising would
seem to be the only Immediate
policy changes necessary,* he
said.
The board also approved the
suggestion of Brian Eggert, new¬
ly elected editor of the Cam¬
pus, that Gottschalk Studio handle
senior photographs fortheCam-
pus next year. As of now the
sitting charge would be $1.00
and students would be under no
obligation to purchase pho¬
tographs.
Also approved was the Idea
of an Insert section in the stu¬
dent directory containing infor¬
mation concerning the college.
The Information would consist of
names of persons to contact tor
various services and general in¬
formation about the campus.
