Letters to the Editor

High School PTA Is Obsolete

Eisenhower’s Parent-Teacher

Association is attempting to

turn the local organization into

a Parent-Teacher-STUDENT

Association.

Recently PTA board members

visited a meeting of the student

council and invited student

participation in the PTA.

Whether it was the unfriendly

was the proposal was presented

(not a nice word said about

students) or the fact that no

appealing benet to students was

pointed out, the student council

reacted with zero enthusiasm —

and rightly so.

PTA at the elementary level

can possibly benet the students,

and involvement of parents and

teachers is far greater.

PTA at the high school level

seems a complete waste of

time and money. In fact, more

and more secondary schools

throughout the country are

discontinuing PTA altogether —

and nobody even misses it!

The few worthwhile little

projects performed by the local

PTA, like the welfare program

of collecting food and clothes,

are largely accomplished through

school clubs anyway. The PTA

dental care program is needed

in elementary schools more

than in high school. Scholarship

assistence developed through

P T A b o w l i n g a n d b r i d g e

tournaments could easily be

continued through the larger and

more active Booster Club.

“More dances and activities

for students” was pointed out

as an advantage offered by the

organization of PTSA Actually,

the big problem now at Ike is

not the lack of activities but the

over abundance of activities and

the lack of interest that plagues

attendance.

Another “big benefit” of

belonging to PTSA, according to

the representative who spoke to

council members, is that students

would be invited to PTSA

meetings and therefore would

“really know what is happening”

because “newspapers are a bad

source of information!”

Bite your tongue, PTA lady!

And students, if you want to

get involved with projects and

decisions, attend meetings and

work with student council. That’s

where you are needed and where

you should be.

Nixon Deserves New Term

This year, one of the most

crucial and important presidential

races in the history of the United

States is taking place.

Senator George McGovern, a

Democratic senator from South

Dakota, and President Richard

Nixon are locking horns for the

big ght. President Nixon wants

more time for the completion

of programs that he has started.

Senator McGovern promises to

end the war in ninety days after

inauguration, IF he wins.

In order to stop the war, Senator

McGovern says that he will halt all

bombing, and remove American

forces from Indo-China. However,

I have heard nothing of how he

plans to get the prisoners out of

North Vietnam. Please don’t try to

say that he would negotiate to get

them out, because Communists

are not the type of people who can

negotiate. Certainly if McGovern

would pull all troops out and

stop bombing, that would end

the killing of American citizens,

but the citizens of South Vietnam

would be ravaged by the Viet

Cong. Do our peace-loving

McGovern supporters advocate

this type of behavior? Meanwhile,

all prisoners would still suffer in

prison camps.

How on earth can anyone call

the United States heartless for the

“killing and maiming of innocent

North Vietnamese women and

children?” I have heard this

dovish cry until I am sick of it!!!

Don’t these people ever consider

all of the innocent people that

are killed in the South by bombs

bearing a hammar and sickle?

Yet I have never seen a protest

sign asking for a stop to that

senseless killing.

Secondly, President Nixon

has made magnificent steps

to end the war. He knows as

well as I do that he can’t bring

all of the troops back without

severe economic and moral

repercussions in both South

Vietnam and the United States.

By his plan of Vietnameseation,

the administration has forced the

people of that land to become

more self-reliant.

It might be added that Mr.

McGovern is the kind of person

who would like to isolate the

United States from the rest of

the world. He has advocated

isolationism since he has been in

the senate. In fact, in 1948, when

he was needed to support his own

party’s candidate, Harry Truman,

McGovern was busy working

for some dark horse candidate

whose chances of winning were

equal to those of Dr. Spock. This

dark horse ran on the platform

of isolationism. To this day,

McGovern proudly admits this

campaign. It is unfortunate that

Mr. McGovern does not realize

that during the First World

War, President Wilson put this

country into world policies. If

any administration tried to isolate

the United States, they would

use up all of their administration

breaking treaties and making

enemies abroad.

President Nixon, on t h e

other hand, sees the problem in

Southeast Asia, and wants to

solve it. It will take time, but

it is sure to work. After all, he

is cutting down the draft, and

possibly the draft will diminish in

time. I don’t feel that there is any

danger of Nixon stepping up the

draft, or the war after re-election.

This is only a misconception seen

by McGovern supporters who are

trying to smear Mr. Nixon.

The president cares about

domestic problems. He is in

favor of creating new jobs for

the able-bodied man who is out

of work. He wants to help the

retired people. That might seem

trivial to the young voter, but to

someone who is out of work, or

retired, or nearing retirement age,

this is very important. McGovern

may say a lot about the elderly,

and the unemployed, but he

has auch outlandish ideas for

jobs, and ideas of giving every

American $6,000 a year, that a

voter should wonder whether he

is really that interested and where

he plans to get the money.

The most inportant thing about

this election is the fact that the

voters are too apathetic. Because

a registered voter does not like

Mr. McGovern or President

Nixon, he just says he won’t

vote, or that he will vote for Dr.

Spock of the Peace and Freedom

party, or John Schmitz of the

American Independent party.

Neither candidate has any chance

of winning. I cna’t urge people

enough to get out and vote.

If they are against both major

candidates, they could at least

vote for “the lesser of two evils.”

I think that the choice is clear.

America needs President Nixon,

now more than ever.

Vote! Save Our Coastline

The Coastal Zone Conservation

Act initiative sets forth steps

d e e m e d n e c e s s a r y b y i t s

o r i g i n a t o r s t o i n s u r e t h e

preservation and future safety of

California’s coastal environment.

Proposition 20 wording is not

easily understood at rst glance.

After hours of wading through

the literary decoys, however, one

finds the true meaning behind

the initiative. Then you begin

to realize the real impact on the

state should the initiative pass.

The initiative provides for

the creation of six regional

commissions, and one state

commission, whose job it would

be to grant or deny building

permits for development within

the “permit area.”

The permit area includes all

land between the seaward limit

of the state’s jurisdiction, about

three miles, and 1,000 yards

inland from the mean high tide

line. Any development within

this area would require a building

permit issued by the regional

commission.

Those land developments

already in this area are eligible

for exclusion from the permit

requirement only upon request by

the city or county involved. Any

order granting exclusion may

be revoked at any time, placing

the established structures in the

area in jeopardy of being torn

out. Any land directly adjacent

to a beach, or the high tide line

where there is no beach, cannot

be excluded.

If a person is denied a permit

to build on his beachfront land,

or is required to remove what is

already built, his land is of no

value to him. If he must leave

his land idle for the benet of

the public, he has, in effect, had

his land confiscated without

reasonable compensation. This

vilates the Fifth Amendment of

the Constitution of the United

States which guarantees “that

no private property shall be

taken for public use, without just

compensation.”

The proposition does provide

for hearings of gruivances

by the regional commission

involved. If the applicant loses

his case in the regional hearing

he may appeal it to the state

commission. However, if the

state commission “fails” to act

on the appeal within 60 days of

its ling date, the decision of the

regional commission becomes

nal. It is certain that miracles

would be performed should the

state commission hear every

appeal made within 60 days after

it was led.

A problem of even greater

magnitude to those living in

southern California is the threat

of power shortage within the

next three years. The initiative, if

passed, could place a moratorium

on all coastline construction

including that of non-polluting

nuclear power plants. One fact

to keep in mind is that California

has no provisions or facilities for

brownouts, only blackouts.

I feel the objectives of the

initiative are both worthwhile and

are greatly needed by the state.

But the cure seems worse than

the disease. We can’t sit idly by

and let our coastline waste away,

but at the same time we can’t be

fooled into believing that every

plan “ECOLOGY” is in the best

interest of everyone in the state.

By MARTY GEIGER

Ike hot rodders trying to burn

rubber through the parking lots

are burning a little more than

rubber. They’re burning money.

Most students know the speed

limit is 10 mph for the parking

lot, but when they step into their

cars somehow the car pun ps

itself up to 50 mph. If they are

stopped, they swear they thought

they were going under 10!

An average driver should get

about 40,000 miles out of his

tires, but the Ike hot rodder can

get only about 30,000 out of his

tires because of his unsensible

driving in the school area.

Every time you get scratch,

you lose a thin layer of rubber

off your tires. After a few months

of your tires leaving their marks

everywhere, your tires are nearly

bald and you need a new set.

Then there goes another $100 or

more for a new set of tires.

Some students seem to think

that driving in the parking lot is a

big race, but they should realize

that all the winner is getting is a

big bill for new parts or a ticket

or even losing his privileges of

parking on campus.

Stop Gross Assembly Skits

Dear Editor:

At a recent pep assembly,

we were slightly sickened by

a skit put on by the pep squad

involving three football players.

In this, the football players

were blindfolded and led to

believe they were going to kiss

a cheerleader. But much to their

surprise, when the blindfold was

removed, they discovered that

they had actually kissed their

own mother.

My friends, as well as hundred

of other students were shocked to

see such a thing. We feel that in

future gatherings we should try to

build up our football players, not

degrade them.

JOCKS FOR GUYS

Dear Editor,

Jocks, a new club for “athletic

supporters” was supposedly

going to be quite a spirited club

on the IKE campus. But it looks

to me and many others that the

club has been overrun by a bunch

of spirit-happy girls.

The club, in the rst place, was

supposed to be a cheering section

for games and pep assemblies,

but these chauvinist females have

turned it into just another pep club.

If these girls want bakes sales,

car washes, and other activities,

let them join Eisenhower’s pep

club. But please, ladies, give us

guys a break. All we want to do

is cheer.

And besides, with a name like

Jocks, this should be run by guys!

(We have bigger mouths anyway!

BITE YOUR TONGUE!

Dear Editor:

I would like to dedicate this

small letter to the group of kids

on campus who enjoy ridiculing

retarded people.

All of you who have at one

time or another, laughed and

made fun of a retarded child

should have a sister or brother

who is one. You would know

hard they try, and how much love

they really need. They put much

effort forward just to please other

normal individuals.

Most of you would never

even consider making fun

of a physically handicapped

person, but you think nothing of

chopping a mentally handicapped

one. And you are very clever in

your actions, because you hurt

them with words. Most retarded

kids can’t win in a chop ght;

they are mentally handicapped!

Next time you feel the urge

to join in the making fun of a

retarded kid, stop and think what

you feel like if you were in his

place.

Maybe you will feel some

compssion for your fellow man,

even if he is mentally inferior to

you. And if you don’t, I can only

feel pity for your ignorance.

A student who cares
