YAF Supports Pusey On Moratorium Stand

Members of Harvard-Radcliffe Young Americans for Freedom have commended President Pusey for his refusal to close the University on October 15.

In a telegram sent to Pusey on Wednesday, six YAF members expressed their support of the President's "courageous statement defending the University from those professional dissenters who would use Harvard officially as a forum for their personal views."

Laszlo Pasztor '73, one of the signers, said that YAF was not against the Moratorium itself. It did, however, oppose any action to make the University take a stand on a political issue, he said.

Although there is no general agreement within YAF as to how the war should be ended, Pasztor said he knew of no members who took part in the Moratorium. Pasztor attended a "Back Our Boys" rally at Boston State College on trek, fifteenth. He said that pro-administration demonstrations would take place in Boston in November to counteract the anti-war march on Washington of November 15.
