This practice-which includes questioning and checking statements of spokesmen for student political groups-is apparently unsatisfactory to Pasztor and Arthur N. Waldron. In regard to two articles by Katharine L. Day, published on May 1 and 4, Pasztor expresses outrage that a reporter dared to report statements of persons which differed from Pasztor's account of them. Day's first article did report the two reasons cited by SJP for its lack of success in recruiting speakers. It attributed the reasons to SJP because none of their potential speakers made such a statement to the CRIMSON. She reported only...
...PASZTOR'S logic on the question of whether James Humes had agreed to speak at the second teach-in is somewhat convoluted. He suggests that Day should have believed the possible statements of an unnamed secretary about Humes' speaking schedule rather than the actual statement, made by telephone to her of Humes himself. We suggest to Pasztor that Humes would have known whether he was scheduled to fly to Boston to make a speech...
...Pasztor's third point is an unpleasant one. Day heard him use the expression in question four separate times; each time, she clearly heard the word "nude," If Pasztor was saying "new," that cannot be helped; again, Day had no choice but to report what she heard. In any case, the phraseology is Pasztor's own. We did not invent...
...Pasztor's blithe allusion to unnamed "half-truths" in articles by David R. Caploe prior to the "Counter Teach-In" is particularly infuriating in light of the fact that it was only through an article published on March 26 by Caploe that members of the Harvard community learned that SJP had-inadvertently or otherwise-seriously misrepresented its program. In fact. the only major inaccuracies in Caploe's coverage came when he trusted SJP spokesmen in their statements that the Teach-In would be addressed by the South Vietnamese Ambassador to the United States and the Royal Thai Ambassador...
...APOLOCIZE to our readers for this naivete. When we checked with the embassies, we learned that the South Vietnamese Ambassador had never intended to speak; indeed, we were told by his appointment secretary that she had told Pasztor at the beginning of that week that the Ambassador would not appear. Checking further, we learned that the Royal Thai Ambassador to the United States had no knowledge of the Teach-In, and that his name did not resemble Anand Sandering Ham; later we learned that the scheduled speaker was Anand Panyarachun, Royal Thai Ambassador to Canada. And it is worth noting...
