The winter antiwar offensive started by the organizers of the Harvard and Yale teach-ins, is continuing at campuses across the country.

Teach-ins are scheduled this week for Notre Dame, the University of Oklahoma, the University of Nebraska, and Chapel Hill, N. C. A teach-in is planned for March 12 at New York University.

Sen. John V. Tunney (D-Calif) and Rev. Theodore M. Hesburgh spoke last night at Notre Dame.

Allard K. Lowenstein and David I. Halberstam '55 will speak at Oklahoma tomorrow. The next night. Lowenstein will be at the Nebraska teach-in Lowenstein spoke last Thursday night during a "Peace Marathon" at Mt. Holyoke College.

Julian Bond will speak Friday night in Chapel Hill at a teach-in for Duke, North Carolina State, and the University of North Carolina.

No speakers have yet been scheduled for the N. Y. U. teach-in.

On Saturday, Greg Craig '67, a coordinator of the Harvard and Yale teach-ins, said that most of the im-petus behind the "Rolling Thunder" teach-in movement came from a "hardcore group of 25 or 30 former student government presidents from the National Student Association who have kept up a solid network since 1967."

Craig said that while he had helped to co-ordinate early efforts to get speakers for different campuses, the center of teach-in activity would shift to the Association of Student Governments (ASG) in Washington.

Duane Draper, president of the ASG, said the organization would help any teach-in group that asked for speakers. He said, however, that many antiwar Senators had already refused invitations to speak at teach-ins, and he was not hopeful about future prospects.

"The real tragedy is that no Senator wants to go anywhere but Harvard or California. But the kids who go to school between the Mississippi and the Rockies are the ones who really need some big name to come and recognize the fact that they're alive and kicking," Draper said.
