Campus Groups Plan 'Teach-Out'

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Representatives of the United Ministry and a campus political group agreed yesterday to pool their efforts for a "teach-out" on Vietnam.

The participants, members of the Harvard-Radcliffe Young Republicans and Young Democrats, Americans for Reappraisal of Far Eastern Policy, Students for a Democratic Society, and the May Second Movement, made no definite plans but agreed to meet again next Sunday.

The groups considered setting up a Faculty-student speakers' bureau that would try to spread debate on Vietnam into the Boston community. The bureau could help provide a "broader hearing," said Rev. Richard E. Mumma, Presbyterian member of the Harvard-Radcliffe United Ministry who called the discussions in response to a Crimson editoral which appeared in Saturday's edition.

Each Harvard organization would provide speakers for the bureau, Mumma said, and Faculty members would be asked to join. Members of the bureau would then debate Vietnam policy before Boston religious and lay groups.
