Faculty Group Plans April Anti-War Action

A group of about 25 anti-war faculty members met Wednesday to discuss plans for forming a faculty committee for spring peace action.

The group, organized by Everett I. Mendelsohn, professor of the History of Science, considered staging a Harvard Stadium rally; holding a series of antiwar workshops; organizing demonstrations in Watertown, Belmont, Arlington, and other local committees; and demonstrating at the Internal Revenue Service office in Boston.

The faculty group created a publicity committee chaired by William R. H. Alexander '60, assistant professor of English and a planning committee chaired by Dr. Ruth Hubbard Wald, lecturer and research associate in Biology.

"We've got to get people out of the cocoon of helplessness and self-satisfaction," said Mendelsohn. "We just have to get together a larger group," he added.

The group is planning a larger meeting for 4:30 p. m. Wednesday.
