Everyone knocks Nixon
—but 'together1 again
By Alison Mundy
It's time Americana stopped kicking Prealdent Nixon around and
recognized Urn tor tbe true patriot he Is.
Amid aU the uproar about Watergate, IT£T, erased tapes and
"dirty tricks,*  President Nixon's  greatest achievement baa gone
unnoticed. But Nixon haa done what few Presidents before him have
even attempted: he has kept bla campaign promises.
. President Nixon promised to "bring us together,* and be has succeeded admirably. Hardhata and long-hairs who were knocking heads
five yeara ago are meeting over beers to
COMMENTARY   knock Prealdent Nixon Instead. Little old
ladles ln tennis shoes are helping Berkeley
radicals pass Impeachment petitions.  Even Barry GoIdwate% and
Abble Hoffman finally agree on something.
President Nixon promised to support 'law and order," and more
criminals have been brought to trial during his administration than
ever before. Not Just petty crooks, either, but first-class felons
like John Mitchell, H. R. Haldeman and Maurice Stans.
President Nixon promised to run a clean administration, and he
certainly has — no official has stayed In office long enough lo even
need a bath. And the administration's employees and ex-employees
swear unanimously that their consciences, as well as their bodies,
are spotless. (Some have even been caught red-handed, aparently
from overzealous scrubbing and Whitewashing.)
The only promise President Nixon may have trouble honoring Is
the one  for "four more years." But you can't say he isn't trying
•ETTER   TO   THE   EDITOR
Asks for amnesty, government apology
Editor:
Regards your editorial. Wednesday, Feb. 27. 1074, "Amnesty: Political Duty," permit me
to submit the following statement
which was submitted to the editor of the Fresno Bee on Feb.
20,   1973, by the undersigned:
The thousands who left the
country, deserted from the military or went to jail lierause of
their moral beliefs against the
war in Vietnam should lie given
an apology from the governmeni
and the nation. We cannot deny
and we must not forget that the
vast majority of these men acted
on principle — that they felt (as
the majority of lite American
people now feel) that the war tn
which they were required to participate was misguided and Immoral. To thoseslurtaHiofficials,
memliers of the clergy and those
In positions of power, who did
not speak out while this most
brutal and hideous rhapter of
American history was being written I would suggest that they
once ag-.iln have a moral and
patriotic duty lo speak out for
total amnesty for those brave
men who refused lo participate
In an American shame."
My   position has  mil  changed.

Courageous' Howe wins award
By Stan Vaughn
Collegian Sports Editor
George Howe, Fresno's 177
weight  class  PCAA wrestling
h.impion, has had a bad hand all
season but it has not slowed him
lown In the least.
After posting a 22-3-3 mark for
ihe campaign, Howe was selected
t>y the San Joaquin Valley Sports-
auiters and Sportscasters as
university   athlete-of-the-week.
Howe was described by Bulldog
wrestling coach Dick Francis as
"one of the most courageous
wrestlers i nave eve)'coached.*
The PCAA champion, who waa
also a title bolder at clovls High
GEORGE HOWE
School and Fresno City College,
now must wait and see If the CSUF
Athletic Commission will allow
himself, John Berg, Gary Rein-,
hart and Jeff Cerry to travel
back to the NCAA championships,
being held ln Ames, Iowa.
*Georg3-is getting confidence
that he can pin people,* Francis
told the sporting media. But you
could not have convinced Howe's
opponents last Saturday that he
did not have the confidence before
the PCAA finals.
Howe, who reached the finals
last year In the 167, collected a
pair of pins during last weekend's
competition. In his first match of
the day, the Fresno champion
spent-little, time ln disposing of
San Joae State's Michael Cunningham (4:25). Then In the finals
. be squared off against San Diego
State's. Glenn Sheeran. Sherran,
like Howe, also had a pin ln his •
previous match.
Francis briefly touched on the
other Fresno champions, saying
that "Jeff (Gerry) has confidence
in himself again.* Gerry claimed
the title In the 134'a for the third
straight time, 'v
Reinhsri's win In the 142class
was a surprise to msny. After
being out most of the season with
a broken ankle, then separated
rib cartilage. Reinsert' finished
the season with only three weeks
of competition. Jim Lucas, the
San Jose wrestler Reinharl de-
d stoned 4-2 for the title, had ■
beaten the Fresno grappler only
two weeks before.
Berg, Fresno's 190 class
champion for the third time, had
little trouble in defending his
crown. The Bulldog strongman
first pinned Glenn Fatrcloth of
Cal State Los Angeles In 7:02,
then came back to easily manhandle San Jose's John Roberts
for a 10-2 decision.

From Aviation Officer Candidate School through Flight
Training to the day hfs golden

is tested; driven; pushed and
tested again. And for good
reason. The Navy has learned
that without   the will  to suc
ceed, no man can be successful. 0 '

you have what it takes to fly
Navy? Talk with your Ndvy
