Draft Group Recognized

In other business, the Council,
after lengthy debate gave recognition
to The Charlottesville Draft
Opposition Group, a group against
the war in Vietnam.

Foster Witt explained that "recognition
of the group implies no
support of it, it merely means
that the group can use University
facilities."

George McMillan wanted to
know if this group was needed
since Council recognized the Charlottesville
Draft Counselling
Group last week.

A spokesman for the group
explained the difference between
his organization and the Charlottesville
Draft Counselling
Group. His group did not really
advise students, but welcomed
those opposed to the war.
