An Editorial
GOtDWATER:
America's Last Chance
This is an endorsement by the Editor of the Pointer and does
not necessarily convey the opinion of the Pointer staff, its advisors, the student body or the administration.
The reason i~ is being made is that I feel there is a great
_need for _intelligent discussion on the part of the students concerning the election of a candidate for this great nation's most
_important office. This election, in particular is of great importance because its outcome will determine which direction the
· United States will go in the coming years. We, as a nation,
are now at a fork in the road. On the left we have creeping
socialism and massive powerful centralized government; while
to the right is a return to constitutionalism, states' rights and
individual freedom with responsibility.
The people whom this election will most dramatically affect
are the citizens of tomorrow, the students of today - you.
As the future leaders of America, we have a greater stake
in the survival of America than any other group in the nation.
It is up to us, as concerned citizens and inquiring students, to
protect our heritage and learn from the mistakes of the past
generations so that we may someday walk in a land where everyone can say, "I am free."
This will never be if Lyndon "Medicare" Johnson is elected.
Johnson is more than a liberal, he is a socialist. Is this the
kind of man the framers of the constitution 1 had in mind when
they set up the government -of limited powers and individual
rights?
Ours is a conservative nation in theory and Barry Goldwater
is a conservative in practice. He is· a fiscal conservative, a vigorous defender of personal freedom, a man who will bring honesty
and integrity to the federal government. America needs Gold·
water because he is concerned with this nation's wasteful government programs aad is determined to halt the present trend
towards the socialistic state.
He is a true defender of each American and his rights, regardless of race, creed or color. It is hard to dispute his logic
that the answer to racial, economic and religious intolerance
ultimately lies in the hearts of men. He has said, "Individual
action hy every American and this alone, will one day eliminate

the stigma of discrimination from our society.
Barry Goldwater represents the millions of Americans who
are 'finding it increasingly difficult to swallow the present administration's policy of appeasement. The Russians will not
only 'bury" us, but at the present rate of affairs, it won't even
be an effort - we're digging our own hole.
America was- not destined to co-exist with Communism. It is
because of Communism's basic philosophy of world domination .
that we must rise and defeat it; at the conference table,
in the newspapers, in the school and if need be - on the battlefield.
Barry Goldwater totally refutes the slogan, "Better Red than
dead." The choice is clear, the alternatives are before us, one
candidate espouses appeasement, the other cries, "Victory."
I realize that· many believe · this current campaign is merely
a contest between personalities, an "elect me because he's worse"
type of affair. Many are so sick of the whole thing that they
·are not even going to vote. They say, "What difference will
it make?"
Let me say that, in my opinion, it will make a fant;istic
·difference. A vote for Johnson is a nod of approval for: deficit
spending, creeping socialism, dishonesty in government, an
amassing of centralized power, a detremental foreign policy
and the eventual downfall of America and all it stands for.
On the other hand, a vote for Goldwater is a demand for a
balanced economy, a return to individualism, integrity in government, states' constitutional rights, a realistic foreign policy
and a restatement and assertion of the American ideals and
goals.
But in a larger sense, a vote for Barry Goldwater is a plea
representing millions of the world's oppressed people who look
to America for the leadership of the world, a nation which lives
by the ideals of government for man rather than the loss of
individuality for the sake of the state.
I urge you to discuss this and vote for the candidate of your
choice.

Studeht Hitchhikes
Throdgh Europe .
How many of ~ou have spent three months going to school in
.Austria, or eighteen hours in a baggage car, or four nights under
a bridge crossing the River Seine, or four days hiking through
Switzerland? Tom Corrigan, a senior at WSU, is one of the few
who has had thEj experience of exploring Europe, more or less,
through the use of his thumb.
Last summer between July 11 and August 22, Tom Corrigan
attended the University of Vienna, in Austria. Tom chose the
following subjects for his curriculum: German, economics, politics
and geography of Austria, and mountain climbing.
"The school is rougher academically than anything I've known,"
stated Tom. The .i(xams were oral. The most interesting final was
guiding three girts up the treacherous mountain slopes.
Tom's largest class consisted of six students. The enrollment
at the school tot1fled ninety, half of which were Americans. Of
the ninety, only twelve were undergraduates; the remaining were
graduate students.
Tom's classes were in the morning. Much of the time they
were held outside because of the beautiful weather and scenery.
The school overlooked a beautiful, 400 foot deep, glacial lake.
During the afternoon, Tom's time was his own., Much of this
time was spent climbing the mountains. "It is a dangerous sport,"
Tom added, "Oncq during practice a guy dropped 30 feet and broke
a few ribs." Tom and fourteen other people once hiked three
days covering fifty miles on Mt Dachstin.
When Tom bid farewell to the University of Vienna, he returned
to the U.S. with eight credits. Approximately 120 hours were spent
in class and twice as much in study.
During his stay in Europe, Tom traveled through England,
France, Austria, Switzerland, Germany, Spain and Portugal. He
toured these countries usually by hitchhiking ..
Tom's journey began in the later part of June when he purchased a round-trip ticket from Milwaukee to Paris. He then
flew non-stop from Chicago to London. He arrived at an airport
20 miles outside of London. Because Tom did not have the slightest notion of where to· go, eat, or sleep, an understanding American
who had been with him on the plane gave him a few pointers.
When asked about his impressions of London, Tom remarked, "The
food was terrible."
From London Tom moved to Paris where he saw the sights.
Because school was about to begin, Tom purchased a second class
train ticket to Salzburg, a city 20 miles from the University. Some
one, evidently had solq too many tickets because all of the seats
were occupied when Tom boarded the train. He was forced to
take refuge in the baggage car. He stowed away there for three
hours before an angry conductor discovered him. After storming
out of the baggage car, the conductor returned sympathetically later
with a blanket.
During one sig~t-seeing expedition Tom and three other fellowsa Frenchman, a German and another American-rented a car in
Salzburg. In Switzerland the three and Tom parted. Tom decided to take a three and a half day hike leading him eventually
•to Lucerne, Switzerland.

TOM CORRIGAN
All that he carried was a nap
sack and a rain coat. Tom walked
along little cow paths because
roads were scarce. After sleeping in a ditch the first night,
Tom was thankful to encounter
a Swiss farmer who agreed to let
him spend the next night in his
hay loft. Early the next morning
the farmer's wife went out to the
barn to · awaken her exhausted
guest for a breakfast, which
could be compared to a seven
course ~linner. After breakfast
the wife filled Tom's napsack
with goodies, put her two husky
arms around him, and kissed him
goodbye. "You'll never find more
hol>pitable people than the Swiss,"
commented Tom. After another
night in a ditch, Tom caught a
bus to Zurich, Switzerland.
At this time Tom was runnnig ·

only $3 with which to cover five
days in Paris, three days in

could view the Notre Dame Cathedral. For four nights he slept
there. This may sound quite romantic but actually seven other
French '!>1,1ms were also sleeping
under the bridge, so he slept with
one hand on his wallet. During
these four days, Tom's diet consisted of a loaf of French bread
and a bottle of wine per day. As
Tom put it, "I was high for four
days."
The next day his plane would
leave for Madrid. Tom hadn't
shaved, brushed his teeth, or
washed in four days. He pandered for a moment and decided·
the only logical things to do·
would be to sneak into a hotel.
Tom did just that by locking
himself in the rest room. When
Tom tried to walk out of the
hotel, the proprietor said, "You'd
better check your key in, Sir."
"Hum- it's number 17, there,"
replied Tom pointing to the rack
behind the man, I was just visiting a friend."
Finaly Tom boarded the plane
for Madrid with great hopes of
calming his churning stomach.
One can imagine how he felt
when they served a simple con·
tinental breakfast. Reac h i n g
Madrid Tom did some sight see·
ing and spent his nights sleeping
on a park bench. He lived on two
bottles of coke and a fudgesicle
per day.
His last stop was Lisbon. Tom
spent his - last day and a halt
there. When he went to the· air·
port to fly back to the states he
had 30c to his name. Tom was
shocked when the airline reser·
vationist asked him for a dollar
for the Portuguese airport tax.
He hopelessly explained to the
woman that he only had 30c. Tom
had visions of staying in Portugal
when an American appropriately
asked him if he needed m.o ney.
This benefactor paid the tax and
gave Tom $3.50 to boot.
Tom says that his experiences
in Europe were an education in
themselves. He recommends the
triy to anyone and hopes to return some day himself.
Lucey Has Spoken
"The principle of planning for
future development as well as
giving assistance in m eeting current needs is of major importance for state government," Patrick J. Lucey, Democratic candidate for Lieutenant Governor, said
Tuesday "Both functions are performed by the Department of Resource Development, started by
a Democratic administration."
Lucey. spoke to a group of
Young Democrats at the Wisconsin State University at Stevens
Point in the University Center.
Lucey said that 109 communities, areas, regions, cities, villages,
counties, and towns have received
planning assistance and technical
advice.
"The Republicans are always
suspicious of any efforts by government to assist other communities to plan for their future, ..
said Lucey. "The Republicans envisage a passive role for government-one which is essentially a
do-nothing role. On the other hand,
the Democratic Party has recog.
nized that the state government
can play an important part in
stimulating private enterprise and
local growth."

own definite ideas a'btiMit playing
a violin and about what is to
be played. When she was twelve,
she entered the Paris OHtserva-
toire from which she graduated
in 1955, winning the Premier
Prix d'Honneur de Violin. Shortly
after this she made her concert
debut in which she insisted upon
playing pieces difficult for a seasoned artist: an unaccompanied
sonata by Bach, and Paganini's
24th Capriccio.
In 1961 she toured France successfully and in 1962 she appeared in a concert· in London which
was broadcast throughout England
by the BBC. She has since appeared there repeatedly, most recently in February of 1964, playing
the Brahms Violin Concerto under
Otto Klemperer when she was rated a "consummate artist" by the
London Daily Mail. She has performed under the direction of such
conductors as Carlo Maria Giulini, Sir Malcolm Sargent, Antal
Dorati, Andre Cluytens, and- Hans
Schnidt-Isserstedt. When she appeared in Vienna this spring under Wolfgang Sawallisch, she was
immediately reengaged for eight
concerts with the Vienna Philharmonic during the 1964-65 season.
"A truly great violinist" commented Die Presse. Her American tour which began Oct. 25th
in Massachusetts ends in Virginia
in December.
Her diverse interests include
reading and painting. When doing
